New polls show Democrats in serious trouble. Americans just do not like them. Is everything copacetic with them? Plus, all your Epstein updates, including the latest on the Epstein case and the Gaza Strip.
00:00:25.000I break down the fight for Western civilization between the lions who build civilization and the scavengers who tear it down in the name of grievance, envy, and power.
00:00:33.000It's the product of four years of work.
00:01:05.000Because the legacy media are aligned with the Democratic Party, they would like you to ignore the fact that the Democratic Party has literally never, never been less popular.
00:01:14.000And some of that has to do with the maintained popularity of President Trump.
00:01:18.000If President Trump were wildly unpopular, then the way that politics goes is to seesaw.
00:01:24.000And so if Democrats are down, that means by necessity, President Trump remains up.
00:01:28.000And the Democrats continue to be unbelievably weak.
00:01:31.000According to Politico, President Trump's approval rating remains underwater, but Democrats are faring much worse, according to a new poll from the Wall Street Journal released on Saturday.
00:01:39.000That new survey, conducted by Democratic pollster John Anzalone and Republican pollster Tony Fabrizio, found Democrats' popularity at its lowest point in three decades, in 30 years of polling for the Wall Street Journal, with 63% of voters holding an unfavorable view of the Democratic Party.
00:01:57.000Just 33% of voters hold a favorable view of Democrats.
00:02:00.000A meager 8% hold a very favorable opinion of Democrats.
00:02:05.000That means net negative favorability, 30 percentage points.
00:02:09.000So whatever the media keep telling you about the unpopularity of Trump, Democrats remain way more unpopular.
00:02:15.000Now, that doesn't mean that President Trump isn't facing stiff headwinds, some of his own making.
00:02:19.000By 17 points, voters disapprove, for example, of President Trump's handling of tariffs, but they still trust Republicans on trade more than Democrats by seven points.
00:02:29.000So here's the problem for the Democrats.
00:02:31.000People may not like certain aspects of what President Trump is doing, but they do trust that Trump is going to be responsive to reality in a way that Democrats simply are not.
00:02:40.000There are literally two policy issues where Democrats are favored over Republicans, two.
00:02:44.000One is healthcare and the other is vaccine policy.
00:02:48.000Okay, the president right now is negative seven points.
00:02:52.000But remember, the Democrats are negative 30, negative 30.
00:02:55.000Now, Democrat enthusiasm, because we're going into a midterm election next year, is higher than Republican enthusiasm.
00:03:02.000However, despite those poll numbers, Republicans are only down to Democrats in the generic congressional ballot by three points, which is basically a toss-up when that translates to individual congressional races.
00:03:16.000At this time in 2017, Democrats had an eight-point advantage already in the midterm elections.
00:03:23.000And the reason is because they are totally and completely out of touch.
00:03:26.000There's a fascinating piece from the New York Times titled Inside the Rise of the Multiracial Right, written by Daniel Martinez-Hossang, a professor of American studies and political science at Yale.
00:03:37.000And the whole piece is about the rightward drift of minority voters, about the fact that President Trump won a radically outsized share of minority voters, despite the fact that we have been told since basically 2008 that the Democratic Party was going to forge a brand new majority minority coalition that left white voters in the dust.
00:03:54.000And actually, as it turns out, President Trump wins white voters, but he's also winning an outsized share of Latinos, blacks, Asian Americans.
00:04:03.000And the answer is because the Democratic Party, as it took over all of America's institutions, disconnected itself from normal Americans.
00:04:11.000The Democratic Party made a couple of major mistakes.
00:04:14.000One of those is that it decided to implement an elite Ivy League agenda in terms of values at these institutions, that the only thing that mattered in the end was the most radical social values you could possibly imagine, anti-church values, anti-family values.
00:04:28.000Yes, it turns out that the radical LGBTQ plus minus divided by side wing of the Democratic Party alienated an awful lot of minorities, many of whom are still very much ensconced in church and family.
00:04:40.000And it turns out that if the price of moving along with the Democrats is that you have to believe boys can become girls, that is a major issue for a huge number of Americans.
00:04:49.000And yet Democrats seem preternaturally obsessed with that issue, unable to abandon that issue.
00:04:55.000And yes, that is a major obstacle for them.
00:04:58.000And that is that Democrats, because in the end, the elite of the Democratic Party remain upper crust white liberals and fellow travelers like Barack Obama, who again made common cause with those upper crust elite white liberals and felt very safe and comfortable in those particular circles.
00:05:14.000He talks about this in Dreams from My Father.
00:05:17.000Because of that, there was a tendency to believe that all minorities felt the same way.
00:05:22.000There's a flattening of all minority racial groups into one giant blob, quote unquote, people of color.
00:05:28.000And that's not the way anyone thinks of themselves.
00:05:33.000Hell, white voters don't even think of themselves that way.
00:05:36.000If you ask a normal white voter, that white voter could be of Polish extraction, of Italian extraction now, of Jewish extraction, of German extraction, of Irish extraction.
00:05:46.000And there's been an attempt in America to sort of flatten all of these distinctions out, but those distinctions are very real in terms of how people see themselves in terms of identity.
00:05:53.000So when you tell an Asian American that their interests are identical to those of a black American or a black American, that his interests are identical to those of a Latino American.
00:06:02.000Well, in some cases, the answer is yes, because we're all individuals.
00:06:05.000But in some cases, the answer is very much no.
00:06:08.000It may turn out, for example, that affirmative action policies that are designed to increase the number of applicants who are black who get into Ivy League colleges may cut directly against the interests of, say, Asian Americans who are outscoring their competitors on college tests.
00:06:23.000And so pretending that essentially the coalition of minority groups, they all agree on everything because they're all quote unquote, people of color in opposition to white people.
00:06:36.000At the very end, Ho-Sang writes: He's writing about a woman named Deja Davis who attended America Fest, which is a Charlie Kirk Turning Point USA conference.
00:06:47.000He says at America Fest, weeks before Mr. Trump began his second term, I met a 25-year-old black Blexit member named Deja Davis.
00:06:53.000Blexit is a movement originally started by Candace Owens to get black Americans to leave the Democratic Party.
00:06:59.000Committed and idealistic, she projected a strong sense of racial identity and pride.
00:07:02.000She told me she and the other black conservatives she works with care so deeply about our community.
00:07:07.000They were setting up chapters of conservative groups at historically black colleges and hosting community events.
00:07:11.000I believe the black community can do anything, she told me.
00:07:14.000When I began this work, says Ho-Sang, it was difficult to imagine people of color, again, people of color, like Miss Davis, whose racial identity feels to her in no way out of line with her political one, becoming a major conservative political force in our country.
00:07:25.000Yet with thousands of voters like her at the Turning Point Conference, that's exactly where we are.
00:07:30.000For people like Ms. Davis, optimism and hope for the future come from the right, not the left.
00:07:34.000Their racial identity is still at the core of their political beliefs, if anything.
00:07:37.000So much of what these voters have told me comes from a pointed concern for their communities.
00:07:41.000But their political decisions are driven more by the realities their racial communities face, collapsing social structures, economic uncertainties, and a sense that the status quo is untenable.
00:07:50.000So those institutions the Democrats took over and then use the legitimacy of those institutions to promulgate far leftism.
00:07:57.000It turns out people just lost trust in those institutions and have turned to a wrecking ball like President Trump.
00:08:03.000Says Ho Sang, quote, absent a solution to these core problems, appealing to disaffected voters of color on their racial identity alone has rung hollow.
00:08:11.000Grappling with the complexities of their frustrations, anxieties, and hopes will determine the next political chapter of this country.
00:08:17.000All of which is, again, quite hopeful for Republicans, for sure.
00:08:22.000And some of this has to do, again, with the anti-institutional nature of President Trump.
00:08:26.000Chris Matthews, used to be an emissary said, comes back on.
00:09:15.000Not only does he know what works, President Trump has been the point of the spear in one of the things that Americans hate most, which is this belief that if you say something outside of the preserves, sort of the Hillary Clinton left, you ought to be canceled.
00:09:27.000One of the effects of this has been a massive backlash.
00:09:30.000And President Trump is both a symptom and a cause of this backlash against political correctness, wokeness, and cancel culture.
00:09:36.000Now, I ought to define cancel culture here.
00:09:38.000Not everybody being criticized is cancel culture.
00:09:41.000Cancelation is when you lose a job or when you are removed from a platform, not for an opinion like you're pro-Nazi or something, from a platform or a job because you're outside the Overton window.
00:09:52.000The problem for the left is that the left decreased the so-called Overton window, the window of acceptable discourse, so narrow that virtually everybody ended up being in danger of cancellation.
00:10:02.000And President Trump fought back against that.
00:10:04.000He has wildly blown open the Overton window to mostly good effect, but some negative effect, which we'll get to in a minute.
00:10:10.000Well, one of the effects of that, of the ending of that Overton window dominance by the left, is that organizations that used to be quite powerful, like Media Matters, are now on the ropes, already coming up.
00:10:36.000Over at Pure Talk, they're ensuring that not only are you not paying too much for your cell phone coverage, but you actually have a cell phone that works.
00:10:42.000Because here's the thing, if you've got an old cell phone over time, the battery life fades, the processor can't keep up.
00:10:48.000Fortunately, thanks to Pure Talk, your cell phone is something that you can replace without feeling guilty.
00:10:53.000When you switch to Pure Talk this month, they're going to give you a Samsung Galaxy 836 for free with a $35 qualifying plan.
00:11:01.000Just $35 a month for talk, text, data, and a free Samsung phone with scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass and a battery that lasts all day long.
00:11:08.000All on America's most dependable 5G network.
00:11:10.000We use it here at the office for business.
00:11:45.000They pay a small fee with your county.
00:11:47.000And just like that, your home title is now transferred out of your name.
00:11:50.000Then they take out loans using your equity or even sell your property and you won't even know that it's happened until you get a collection or a foreclosure notice.
00:11:56.000So when was the last time you actually checked on your home title?
00:11:58.000Well, if your answer is like most people, never, you probably should do that right now.
00:12:02.000And that's why I've partnered with Home Title Lock so you can find out today if you're already a victim.
00:12:06.000A lot of people at the Daily Wire, including people on this team, trust Home Title Lock to protect what is likely one of their biggest assets.
00:12:12.000Again, much of your value, just as a person with assets, is in the chief asset you own, which is your home.
00:12:41.000So Media Matters is a left-wing organization originally funded by Hillary Clinton acolytes in order to go after right-wing media companies.
00:12:48.000And what they would do is astro-turf boycotts against people like Rush Limbaugh.
00:13:05.000Media Matters, for a while in this country, was so powerful that I personally, along with Jeremy Boring before we co-founded Daily Wire, we actually had an organization called Truth Revolt in order to fight back against Media Matters.
00:13:16.000And we said openly, we're going to go after left-wing media and use the exact same tactics as Media Matters, not because we like those tactics, but because mutually assured destruction.
00:13:25.000The minute Media Matters stops doing it, we will stop doing it.
00:13:28.000And it turns out those tactics were, in fact, applicable against the left.
00:13:31.000We went after, for example, Alec Baldwin's advertisers when he was on MSNBC and Martin Bashir's advertisers when he was on MSNBC and Al Sharpton at the time.
00:13:39.000Okay, well, now Media Matters, because we now live in the post-Overton window era, Media Matters is basically dead in the water.
00:13:45.000Fascinating article from the New York Times by Kenneth Vogel, Kay Conger, and Ryan Mack.
00:13:49.000Quote, Media Matters, a nonprofit group that has played a key role in liberal politics, is struggling to withstand months of legal assaults by President Trump's allies, offering a glimpse of what might be in store for even well-funded targets of his retribution campaigns.
00:14:01.000But it's not just about President Trump.
00:14:03.000The fact is, people don't want to give to organizations that are specifically dedicated at canceling mainstream public opinions.
00:14:09.000The organization, which is funded by some of the Democratic Party's biggest donors, has racked up $15 million in legal fees over the past 20 months to defend itself against lawsuits by Elon Musk, in addition to investigations by Mr. Trump's Federal Trade Commission and Republican state attorneys general.
00:14:24.000And again, many of those investigations are warranted considering the sort of collusive impact of Media Matters.
00:14:32.000The group has now slashed the size of its staff and scrambled to raise more cash from Skittish donors, according to documents and interviews with 11 people familiar with the organization's fight to survive.
00:14:42.000Media Matters tried to settle with Mr. Musk by offering concessions, but the sides were far apart and talks fizzled.
00:14:48.000Apparently, it has considered shutting, which would be very good for the country.
00:14:52.000Angelo Corazon, the president of Media Matters, said, quote, unlike some major media entities that have recently caved to pressure, we understand this battle is larger than us.
00:14:59.000That's why we continue to carry out our mission and fight in court.
00:15:03.000But again, this is a dramatic downturn for Media Matters because they were part of that censorious left that basically said anything outside of the purview of the Democratic Party was unacceptable discourse.
00:15:15.000Media Matters has originally funded by David Brock, who switched sides, became a left-wing radical enforcer for the Democratic Party.
00:15:24.000That was clearly what they were about.
00:15:25.000Media Matters is made up of two separate nonprofits registered under sections of the tax code, one for charities and the other for social welfare groups.
00:15:32.000Some major donors include people like George Soros, as well as Stephen F. Mandel Jr., a hedge fund manager, Susie Tompkins Buell, clothing entrepreneur.
00:15:43.000So again, they are in serious trouble, and it couldn't happen to a group of nicer people.
00:15:47.000Seriously could not happen to a group of nicer people.
00:15:49.000In May, the FTC launched an investigation into weather media matters and roughly a dozen other watchdog and advertising groups illegally colluded to dissuade companies from buying ads on X, among other platforms.
00:16:00.000Again, this is a cause that Daily Wire has been leading literally since the first day that we started getting involved in this particular cause.
00:16:07.000Like since Sin's launch, this has been one of our chief causes.
00:16:10.000So the era of the censorious left, the upper crust Harvard liberal who speaks down and patronizes to minorities and then shuts the Overton window so nobody can speak different.
00:16:23.000And Democrats don't know what to do about it.
00:16:26.000They are quite puzzled about what is the next step here.
00:16:30.000It seems that they just want to rage against the machine.
00:16:32.000Jonathan Capehart of the Washington Post, he says the Democrats have to stand up and fight, but he's not providing a real playbook here.
00:16:39.000Well, I think Democratic party faithful, they know that their leaders are in the minority, that there's not much that they can do.
00:16:47.000But you're just going to sit there and just let this happen?
00:16:52.000We need you to stand up and fight, give voice to the fear and the anger and the frustration that's out there in the country, not just among Democrats, but just Americans who see this chipping away at democracy that they don't like.
00:17:05.000So you have to fight and don't worry about ticking someone off or hurting a certain constituency.
00:17:13.000In the end, it's about saving the country, saving our democracy.
00:17:18.000And then you can put the pieces back together later.
00:17:24.000I love that David Brooks is sitting next to him on PBS News Your And this is just indicative of what the Democratic Party is.
00:17:29.000Upper crust, highly paid media members of all races who agree with each other that the number one priority in America is saving people like them.
00:17:38.000Here's David Brooks saying universities have to stand up and fight Trump.
00:17:43.000The other option, which I thought we were going to have, is a broad coalition, not only of all universities, but all law firms, businesses, nonprofits, foundations, anybody in any sector that could be part of the extortion attempt.
00:18:21.000The best example being this amazing article from the New York Post.
00:18:24.000Apparently, socialist New York City mayoral frontrunner Zoran Mamdani celebrated his recent nuptials with a lavish three-day affair at his family's ritzy secluded Ugandan compound, complete with masked security guards and a cell phone jamming system, according to the New York Post.
00:18:37.000The gates of the bustling private compound, which sits in the wealthy Uziga Hill area outside the capital city of Kampala, were heavily guarded by military-style masked men this week, with guests streaming in and partying until midnight, according to sources in the town who wished to remain anonymous for security reasons.
00:18:52.000Mamdani had eloped with artist and animator Ramaduaji, 27, in February.
00:18:56.000He told his social media follower Sunday he was headed to his homeland to celebrate with his wealthy filmmaker mom and professor dad, who owned that Bouziga Hill property.
00:19:05.000Apparently, the neighborhood is home to some of Uganda's richest, including billionaire businessman Godfrey Kirumira, a city tycoon with stakes in real estate, tourism, petroleum, and infrastructure, and houses the neighboring Mamzanis easily fetch more than $1 million, which in Uganda, by the way, is like a lot of money.
00:19:20.000A $1 million home in the United States, you know, can be like a mid-sized home depending on where you are.
00:19:25.000It could be a huge home, depending on where you are.
00:19:26.000In Uganda, I promise you, that's going to be a really, really nice house Because the GDP per capita in Uganda is precisely $1,000 per capita.
00:19:37.000So $1 million will buy you half the country.
00:19:41.000I love the, you want to talk about limousine socialists?
00:19:45.000That is what you're looking at right now.
00:19:47.000Okay, so the Democratic Party is on the ropes.
00:19:49.000They are on the ropes, but there is an increasing danger.
00:19:52.000And that danger comes in the form of a splintering that is happening on the right.
00:19:57.000So part of the problem with the destruction of the institutions by the left is that there are, in fact, no replacements for the institutions.
00:20:04.000So there has been a split on the right between what Alana Newhouse of Tablet has called the brokenness, people who believe the institutions need to be completely torn down, ripped to the ground, new institutions built, and people who believe the institutions are fixable.
00:20:16.000The area where the right generally agreed, however, is that institutions are necessary.
00:20:20.000One of the problems with the death of the legacy media, and believe me, I'm a big fan of the death of the legacy media since we run a major media company here at Daily Wire.
00:20:29.000And one of the things that's happened is that with distrust in institutions, justified earned distrust in the institutions, that has been replaced by a variety of sources, some which are good and some which are bad.
00:20:40.000And unless people are trained in how to actually distinguish good sources from bad sources, they tend to intake an enormous amount of trash.
00:20:48.000And that's what's happened with younger Americans.
00:20:50.000So while I am quite optimistic about the future of the Republican Party, I am quite pessimistic about the nature of the quote-unquote younger generation.
00:20:58.000There's a very interesting article by a guy named John Puri over at National Review.
00:21:03.000He's a summer editorial intern at National Review.
00:21:06.000He studies politics and history at Stanford.
00:21:08.000He goes through some of the poll numbers about Gen Z. He says, there's an odd thing that many older liberals tend to say about America's youth.
00:21:15.000As a member of Generation Z, which currently comprises those aged 13 to 28, I've often heard a similar refrain.
00:21:20.000It's you young people who are going to save this country.
00:21:23.000Some older liberals say such things because they seem to truly believe that young Americans are an especially enlightened demographic, that we purely by dint of our youth have a better understanding of the world than does everyone else.
00:21:33.000Sometimes this assumption is translated into policy.
00:21:35.000He points out the UK saying that 16-year-olds should vote.
00:21:39.000However, he says, one small problem, Gen Z does not have some superior moral authority.
00:21:43.000We do not understand the world better than everyone else.
00:21:46.000Our political beliefs are not especially enlightened, quite the opposite, in fact.
00:21:49.000The polling data reflect that we are largely morally and factually bankrupt.
00:21:54.000So, for example, he cites the moral perception of the recent war between Israel and Hamas.
00:21:59.000Apparently, according to a April 2024 Pew Research poll, Americans were asked whether Hamas's reasons for fighting Israel were valid.
00:22:08.000An overwhelming majority of Americans said no.
00:22:10.000For those aged 18 to 29, 34% said Hamas's reasons were valid compared to 30% who thought otherwise.
00:22:17.000That age group was also the most likely to say that the way Hamas carried out its attack against Israel on October 7th, you know, a giant terror attack, the worst attack on Jews since World War II, they said 9% said that it was valid, double the number of any other age group.
00:22:32.000A Harvard-Harris field survey after October 7th found similar results.
00:22:36.000Those 18 to 24 concluded by a majority, 51 to 49, that Hamas's massacre, quote, can be justified by the grievances of Palestinians.
00:22:47.000When it comes to, for example, the killing of Brian Thompson, the CEO of United Healthcare, a poll of college students, Axios reported in January, found that half viewed the suspect extremely or somewhat favorably.
00:23:01.000Asked with whom they sympathized more, Mangion the killer or Brian Thompson the victim, 45% said Mangion, 17% said Thompson.
00:23:11.000Nearly a quarter of Americans aged 18 to 24 say they trust Russian President Vladimir Putin over Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky.
00:23:17.000That is the highest number by far in the age group.
00:23:20.00052% of U.S. college students say it may be acceptable to block other students from attending a speech on campus.
00:23:26.00068% approve of shouting down a speaker they disagree with.
00:23:29.00032% say using violence is appropriate.
00:23:33.000Apparently, The Economist did a poll last year, and it found that one in five Americans aged 18 to 29 believe the Holocaust is a myth, and another 30% say they do not know whether the Holocaust is a myth, meaning like half of young Americans 18 to 29 either don't know whether the Holocaust is a myth or believe it is a myth.
00:23:50.00028% said Jews wield too much power in America.
00:23:53.000Now, the question is, where is all this coming from?
00:23:56.000And the answer is a lot of this is coming from crap social media accounts.
00:24:00.000It's coming from X. A huge amount of news that is taken by young people is not coming from anything that looks like a vetted source or a source that actually cares about reality or eracity.
00:24:13.000In fact, 63% of Generation Z, quote, does not believe in moral absolutes, but thinks what is morally right or wrong depends on what an individual believes.
00:24:20.000So what is right changes over time based on society.
00:24:23.000Only 34% of Generation Z believe lying is morally wrong, which is lower than any other generation.
00:24:30.000Because if you want to know why conspiratorialism has soared, again, there are good reasons to distrust all these institutions.
00:24:36.000It is a good thing that people look at institutions hollowed out by the left wing with radical skepticism and look to build new institutions or restore those institutions by kicking the left out of those institutions and actually regaining credibility.
00:24:49.000However, if the substitute for this is an atomized society in which you go to TikTok for your information or x.com for your information, you're going to end up with some pretty bad information.
00:24:59.000And this is why conspiratorialism has soared on every side of the political aisle.
00:25:03.000And that is dangerous because conspiratorial nonsense, again, there are conspiracies.
00:25:26.000Conspiratorial thinking, however, speculates that there is an unnamed group of people who you can't put a finger on, but you know they're there.
00:25:34.000And behind closed doors, they must be doing something nefarious and terrible.
00:25:37.000And therefore, you are not in control of your own life.
00:25:38.000And you get to be very angry at someone.
00:25:41.000That sort of thinking is not good for society.
00:25:45.000It is bad for you as a human to engage in that sort of thinking because it means that you are essentially saying that you are not in control of your own future.
00:25:52.000You are not in control of your own life.
00:25:54.000And there's no prospect that you will be because the shadowy forces control everything.
00:25:58.000All righty, coming up, all your Epstein updates the story that, unlike Jeffrey Epstein, apparently won't die.

00:27:04.000Also, as we celebrated Independence Day earlier this July, we're reminded of the freedoms our founders fought to protect, like, you know, life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness.
00:27:11.000Here's something that might surprise you.
00:27:13.000There's still Americans today whose most basic right, the right to life itself, is indeed at risk.
00:27:29.000When a mom sees her baby on that screen, hears the heartbeat, everything changes.
00:27:32.000But pre-born isn't just about the baby.
00:27:34.000They truly care for these women as well.
00:27:36.000They provide love, support, and resources during what can be an incredibly difficult time.
00:27:40.000Look, if we really believe what our Constitution says, that all people are created equal with unalienable rights, that has to include the smallest and most vulnerable among us, these babies deserve the same rights our founders declared, life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness.
00:27:52.000You can be part of this mission for just 28 bucks.
00:27:54.000That's the cost of one life-saving ultrasound.
00:27:57.000Or you can sponsor five ultrasounds for $140 to donate.
00:28:09.000And so much of this is now being projected into what is going on on the Jeffrey Epstein score.
00:28:13.000Now, again, I will say it for the thousandth time.
00:28:16.000People have a right to be angry about how the Jeffrey Epstein story was handled.
00:28:20.000Everyone believed, based on sort of the gestalt of the story, for literally a decade, people believed that Jeffrey Epstein was engaged in taping of and blackmail of very, very prominent figures by sex trafficking minors to them.
00:28:34.000That's what everybody thought the story was.
00:28:36.000And that story was fomented by a lot of people in media who sort of picked up on a hint there or a clue there and put it all together and wrapped it up in a ball and then promoted the idea that certainly when we got access to the files, there would be something there.
00:28:49.000And that included the attorney general, Pam Bondi.
00:29:06.000Once the evidence is made available or once people you trust, the people who are asking those same questions get access to the evidence and they say, we looked, we tried, and we found there wasn't as much there.
00:29:16.000There wasn't what we thought was there.
00:29:18.000Once that happens, if you are still maintaining that same position, you have to call those people liars or complicit in all of this.
00:29:25.000And this is why President Trump is so annoyed, because President Trump is like, listen, President Trump has humored pretty much all of the just asking questions that it's possible to humor in American life.
00:29:35.000President Trump is not somebody who has quashed conspiracy theorizing.
00:29:40.000President Trump is very much in favor of investigating all of those things.
00:29:43.000And yet President Trump is now being told that because his DOJ and FBI went through the evidence and came to a conclusion different than they thought they would come to, he now must be complicit.
00:29:52.000And now he has to answer all these Epstein questions.
00:29:55.000And again, a lot of this is being fomented by those disparate sources of information and left-wing media.
00:30:00.000So there is a horseshoe that's happening right now.
00:30:02.000You have people inside the Republican Party, I've termed pseudo-MAGA, who are attempting to wrest control of the MAGA movement away from President Trump by claiming that he is in fact a corrupt figurehead who is covering up a child sex rape ring.
00:30:15.000And then you have people on the left who are perfectly willing to say the same thing because they want MAGA to die.
00:30:44.000And there's been an attempt by the administration, by Speaker Johnson, by everybody else to basically say, fine, transparency.
00:30:50.000Let's try to get as much information as we can.
00:30:53.000This has refocused the administration away from important things that are happening, which we'll actually get to in a moment, and onto things like, let's go interview Ghelaine Maxwell, who is Jeffrey Epstein's paramour complicit sex trafficker sentenced to 20 years in prison for sex trafficking young girls for the pleasure of her boyfriend and of herself, apparently.
00:31:12.000Well, on Thursday and Friday, according to the New York Times, Justice Department officials interviewed Maxwell, who's currently serving that 20-year sentence.
00:31:18.000Her lawyers said she answered questions about a host of people, but it was unclear what information she provided.
00:31:23.000Todd Blanche, the deputy AG who brokered the meeting, said on Thursday the department will share additional information about what we learned at the appropriate time.
00:31:32.000What she's now attempting to do is say, I know a bunch of people who are not President Trump or other people, and I'm going to spill the beans on them.
00:31:41.000Well, Speaker Johnson correctly says, listen, she is a sex criminal and a pervert and a pedophile.
00:31:46.000She should have a life sentence, not a 20-year sentence.
00:31:50.000If you're asking my opinion, I think 20 years was a pittance.
00:31:53.000I think she should have a life sentence at least.
00:31:55.000I mean, think of all these unspeakable crimes.
00:31:58.000And as you noted earlier, probably a thousand victims.
00:32:01.000I mean, you know, it's hard to put into words how evil this was and that she orchestrated it and was a big part of it, at least under the criminal sanction, I think is an unforgivable thing.
00:32:15.000And again, there are a bunch of people inside the Republican Party who are saying that she's sort of the key to the whole thing.
00:32:20.000You're seeing a lot of right-wing influencers saying she's the key to the whole thing.
00:32:23.000The big problem here is that you do have the possibility that, you know, the convicted sex trafficker, pervert, and liar, That she might be lying about some of this stuff.
00:32:32.000And so you actually need extraneous evidence in order to prove her allegations because that's just the way the system works and ought to work.
00:32:39.000Speaker Johnson says, I certainly hope she's telling the truth, but she has some ulterior motives.
00:32:44.000Well, I mean, look, it's a good question.
00:33:06.000She is serving a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking.
00:33:09.000And so her character is in some question.
00:33:11.000But if she wants to come clean now, that would be a great service to the country.
00:33:15.000And we'd like to know every single bit of information that she has.
00:33:18.000I certainly hope she's telling the truth.
00:33:22.000Again, listen, as much transparency as legally possible would be excellent here.
00:33:26.000As much verified information and credible information as legally possible should be released.
00:33:30.000I mean, this is obviously a matter of significant public interest and has been for, as I say, years and years and years and years at this point.
00:33:37.000With that said, there is a politically motivated attempt to damage President Trump.
00:33:41.000It's coming from both the right and the left.
00:33:42.000And pretending it's not there is just being silly.
00:33:46.000It is there from a right that disagrees with President Trump on policy and is seeking to undermine his credibility and what he is doing right now in order to wrest control of the Republican Party away from him and leave unscathed other people around him, other members of the administration, for example.
00:34:02.000Thomas Massey continues to accuse the GOP leadership of hiding something in the Epstein Files.
00:34:19.000Here was Thomas Massey, who's been, again, joining hands with Roe Khanna, the radical left congressperson from California, to suggest that the administration is engaged in a cover-up.
00:34:30.000What is your response to the concern that releasing these files could ultimately hurt the victims, Congressman Massey?
00:35:11.000Who's the they who's doing the hiding?
00:35:13.000Meanwhile, the Democrats are joining hands with Thomas Massey.
00:35:16.000Democratic Representative Mark Veacee of Texas says that President Trump is hiding something.
00:35:22.000Oh, Donald Trump is obviously trying to hide something.
00:35:25.000That's why he's acting so guilty over this.
00:35:27.000And the other thing that's really disturbing about that is that Maxwell was interviewed outside of prison.
00:35:34.000There was no reason why she needed to be transported away from a federal lockup when he just could have gone there and met with her and her attorney.
00:35:42.000And so, yeah, I think that something is really shady here.
00:35:44.000And just everything around the whole Epstein file since Trump has found out that he's been in the files in May has just been 100% shady.
00:35:55.000When Republicans find themselves hugging Rocana and VZ, then you might want to think what the motivation is.
00:36:09.000The question is, do you have evidence for those conspiracies?
00:36:11.000So over the weekend, Dan Bongino, who's the deputy director of the FBI, put out a statement, quote, based on my tenure here as the deputy director of the FBI, I've repeatedly relayed to you things that are happening that might not be immediately visible, but they are happening.
00:36:24.000The director and I are committed to stamping out public corruption and the political weaponization of both law enforcement and intelligence operations.
00:36:30.000It is a priority for us, but what I've learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters has shocked me down to my core.
00:36:38.000I'll never be the same after learning what I've learned.
00:36:40.000We are going to conduct these righteous and proper investigations by the book and in accordance with the law.
00:36:44.000We are going to get to the answers we deserve.
00:36:47.000As with any investigation, I cannot predict where it will land, but I can promise you an honest and dignified effort at truth, not my truth or your truth, but the truth.
00:36:54.000God bless America and all those who defend her.
00:36:57.000And what is he talking about right there?
00:36:59.000Well, I assume what he's talking about is more Russagate information, more of the intelligence community manufacturing of information surrounding the supposed collusion between Trump and Russia, or Russia wanting Trump to be president.
00:37:11.000CIA Director John Ratcliffe was on Fox with Maria Bardaromo, and he says there will be an annex to the so-called Durham report, which booked into all of this coming very soon.
00:37:20.000What hasn't come out yet and what's going to come out is the underlying intelligence that I have spent the last few months making recommendations about final declassification and sent that to the Department of Justice that will come out in the John Durham report classified annex.
00:37:39.000And what that intelligence shows, Maria, is that part of this was a Hillary Clinton plan, but part of it was an FBI plan to be an accelerant to that fake steel dossier, to those fake Russia collusion claims by pouring oil on the fire, by amplifying the lie and burying the truth of what Hillary Clinton was up to.
00:38:03.000Now, again, while all of this is going on, President Trump is still winning actual victories, which is why his approval rating remains extremely steady, despite all of the conspiracies, actual and conspiracies that, again, are being ramped up by actors who do not like President Trump and are antipathetic to his actual agenda.
00:38:22.000And meanwhile, there are victories being won by the Trump administration on trade.
00:38:26.000So President Trump, as we say, has been using tariff threats as leverage.
00:38:30.000Howard Luttnick on Sunday, he said on Fox News Sunday, August 1st is when the tariffs kick in.
00:38:36.000And in advance of that, people are coming in there making deals, which obviously is true.
00:38:49.000Customs will start collecting the money and off we go.
00:38:53.000Obviously, after August 1st, people can still talk to President Trump.
00:38:57.000I mean, he's always willing to listen.
00:38:59.000And between Now and then, I think the president's going to talk to a lot of people.
00:39:03.000Whether they can make him happy is another question, but the president's definitely willing to negotiate and talk.
00:39:10.000Well, President Trump over the weekend reached a deal with the EU.
00:39:14.000There's a lot of worry that there would not be a deal with the EU.
00:39:17.000According to the Wall Street Journal, he said he reached a trade agreement on Sunday with the EU, avoiding a damaging trade war with the United States' largest trading partner and marking his biggest deal so far.
00:39:26.000Apparently, the United States will set a baseline tariff of 15% for European goods, including automobiles.
00:39:31.000He said the EU had also agreed as part of the deal to buy $750 billion of energy products from the United States and invest an additional $600 billion in the United States.
00:39:40.000He said, I think it's going to be great for both parties.
00:39:42.000Here was President Trump announcing that EU trade deal with the European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
00:39:48.000And with NATO, as you know, they're going up to 5% from 2%, and the relationship is very strong with NATO.
00:40:15.000And the EU is at least relieved that didn't kick up to a 30% tariff.
00:40:18.000Now, would I prefer that the tariffs be lower?
00:40:20.000Of course, because again, tariffs are a tax on American consumers.
00:40:23.000Does this provide a level of at least certainty and stability, given the fact that this is a deal going forward as opposed to it's going to go up, it's going to go down, it's going to be all around?
00:40:32.000And certainty is the thing the economy is looking for right now.
00:40:35.000Vondra Leyen said today's deal creates certainty in uncertain times.
00:40:39.000The 15% level, she said, is the best we could get.
00:40:41.000And again, this is not unexpected because President Trump had suggested that there would be sort of a flat rate tariff applied to everybody.
00:40:47.000But this is an avoidance of something significantly worse.
00:40:51.000For his part, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant, he announced the first June budget surplus since 2015.
00:40:58.000The U.S. is taking in massive amounts of tariff income.
00:41:02.000We had the first June budget surplus since 2015 last month.
00:41:13.000And so we are taking in substantial income.
00:41:18.000Okay, so again, all of this is not bad for President Trump.
00:41:21.000Much of it is very good for President Trump.
00:41:23.000And while the media tried to say that President Trump is going to lead to a government shutdown, that's actually not what's going on.
00:41:28.000So right now, there's a big discussion that's happening over rescission.
00:41:31.000Rescission is a process whereby Congress can now go and confirm cuts that are being made via Doge in the executive branch.
00:41:38.000According to the Washington Post, the Senate took a tentative first step this weekend towards striking a deal to avoid a government shutdown this fall.
00:41:44.000Republicans in Congress last week approved President Trump's request to cancel $9 billion in foreign aid and funding for public broadcasting, giving the administration a victory in its ongoing battle with lawmakers over the power of the purse.
00:41:55.000And the White House is going to look for more rescissions.
00:41:58.000Democrats are going to need to sign on to a continuing resolution to continue to fund the government.
00:42:02.000And they are threatening that they are not going to sign some sort of continuing resolution if Congress then comes back and by pure majority, without the filibuster in the Senate, can simply rescind funding that the executive branch wants rescinded.
00:42:14.000Well, there's only one problem with that argument for Democrats.
00:42:27.000In order to preserve more spending on foreign aid, more spending on federal education or something?
00:42:34.000So the White House has come up with a rather clever strategy here, frankly.
00:42:38.000And that strategy is we will use rescuions to make cuts, but we will continue on top line to fund the federal government at current levels.
00:42:46.000The Office of Management and Budget Director, Russ Vogt, he says, sure, of course, we're going to continue to look at potential decision options.
00:44:14.000Now, as I say, there are a lot of actors out there who have an interest in ensuring that President Trump is unpopular and also are perfectly willing to lie in order to foment that.
00:44:22.000Now, the biggest liars on planet Earth are, of course, Hamas.
00:44:24.000So you've seen an enormous amount of coverage of what's going on in the Gaza Strip over the course of the last week.
00:44:30.000And as it turns out, an enormous amount of that coverage is false.
00:44:33.000Okay, so what's actually happening in the Gaza Strip?
00:44:36.000Yes, it turns out that many Gazans cannot get food aid.
00:44:49.000Hamas then sells the aid to fund itself.
00:44:52.000The reason the war has not ended is because Hamas has continued access to all of this aid, which they then steal and either resell or use themselves.
00:44:59.000That is the reason the war has continued.
00:45:01.000And so what Israel did is along with the United States, they set up, as we talked about last week, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
00:45:06.000Johnny Moore, the head of the GHF, joined us on the show last week.
00:45:09.000The GHF operates to try to weed out members of Hamas from actual Gazan civilians and providing millions of meals, millions of pounds of food into Gaza.
00:45:21.000And so naturally, Hamas doesn't want the GHF to do that.
00:45:24.000And the good news for them is they have Democrats who are always willing to do their dirty work.
00:45:27.000For example, Senator Chris Van Hollen, He comes out, Chris Van Hollen, over the weekend of Maryland, who's awful, and he says that actually the United States should defund the GHF and allow a bunch of organizations that work hand in glove with Hamas to have the aid again.
00:45:42.000Today, I'm sending a letter to Secretary Rubio, signed with 20 of my colleagues, calling for more information, but also calling for defunding this.
00:45:53.000American taxpayers should not be spending one penny to fund this private organization backed by mercenaries and by the IDF that has become a death trap.
00:46:05.000Over 1,000 people have died from being shot and killed as starving people crowd to try to get food at just these four sites.
00:46:23.000They've been using the crowd as cover to shoot at IDF soldiers, stealing aid.
00:46:28.000They've been shooting Palestinians themselves who are trying to get aid.
00:46:30.000And Chris Van Holland's solution is, what if we continue to allow the United Nations, which we also fund, by the way, the United Nations to continue to push aid to Hamas?
00:46:39.000The only way the war in Gaza comes to an end is if Hamas is extirpated.
00:46:42.000If the leadership goes into exile, the hostages are released and some form of safe zone is actually set up in the Gaza Strip to ensure that Palestinians can get their food aid.
00:46:50.000The good news for Hamas is always and forever, they have the help of the legacy media.
00:46:54.000I mean, truly have the help of the legacy media.
00:46:56.000So you may have seen an image that was on the front page of the Daily Express in Great Britain.
00:47:02.000It was a picture of a Palestinian mother holding a child.
00:48:18.000They pretended that this was like a normal, healthy child who's just suffering from starvation.
00:48:23.000Now, again, there are starvation problems in Gaza, but this sort of insane media coverage is designed to elicit a feeling that whatever happens, it's Israel's job to make sure that Hamas be damned, that everybody gets aid, even if it means that Hamas extends the war by another two years and continues to maintain its control over the Gaza Strip and uses it as a hub for terrorist attacks.
00:48:49.000You know, again, there are people who are having nutritional problems in Gaza.
00:48:53.000That's why Israel itself, again, in an unprecedented act of wartime charity is literally shipping in millions of pounds a day into the Gaza Strip to the very people who are currently holding hostages, Israeli citizens.
00:49:08.000By the way, the media also said that Muhammad, this kid from this picture, had no father because he'd been killed by the Israelis while out looking for food.
00:49:16.000The problem is that he was killed in an area where terrorists were attacking Israelis in October of 2024.
00:49:24.000There's actual video from the area where this was happening last year, where he was supposedly out looking for food.
00:49:30.000Terrorists were out targeting IDF troops.
00:49:34.000So again, what this is a propaganda war in which the media are engaged.
00:49:37.000The UN is engaged in it too, because the UN is basically a tool of Hamas at this point.
00:49:41.000That wasn't the only intentionally misleading photo that was shown.
00:49:45.000There's another intentionally misleading photo that was making the round.
00:49:49.000Publication, for example, in Italy called Ilfato Quotidiano, put out a picture of a child against skeletal looking like something out of the Holocaust, saying Gaza horror.
00:50:12.000Because again, the goal here for Hamas is to create an emotional feeling that no matter what, no matter how long the war lasts, no matter how many hostages are held, that Israel has a duty and obligation to ship aid into Hamas using Hamas's preferred aid distribution mechanisms.
00:50:27.000Now, Israel does and should attempt to facilitate humanitarian aid into Gaza, but only to people who are truly innocent, who are not working for Hamas, who are not stealing the aid and setting up food markets.
00:50:41.000And this is why it is deeply frustrating when columnists like Ross Duthat write pieces in the New York Times that are utterly and completely misinformed.
00:50:50.000So Ross Duthat, who is good on a wide variety of issues.
00:50:52.000Here he says, quote, there are tests that Israel is failing.
00:50:55.000The first one is the hardest to assess because every protracted war yields inevitable civilian suffering.
00:51:00.000And an urban war against an entrenched enemy, especially, will have casualties that can't be refined away.
00:51:04.000Such a war cannot be fought exclusively with precision strikes.
00:51:07.000The soldiers fighting it cannot be prevented from making terrible mistakes.
00:51:10.000And war crimes are inevitably committed, even in righteous conflicts.
00:51:12.000So there's no way to look at the rubble in Gaza and the death toll estimates and offer a mathematical proof that Israel is failing to exercise adequate restraint.
00:51:43.000It says deaths from famine are a clearer matter, which is why the threat of starvation is leading even some of Israel's strongest supporters to warn its government something must be changed.
00:51:50.000By the way, Israel has been declaring 10-hour breaks in the fighting in order to facilitate the entry of more aid.
00:51:57.000Israel has been asking Arab governments to airdrop aid into Gaza.
00:52:05.000Quote: The UN says it cannot accept Israeli offers to secure aid convoys because of its principle of neutrality in armed conflicts.
00:52:13.000So the UN is refusing to ship in trucks filled with aid because it's afraid that Israel might facilitate its entry to actual Palestinian civilians.
00:52:22.000He says, Israel has made a strategic choice trying to separate food distribution from a system that it argues Hamas was exploiting for its own purposes.
00:52:29.000But if your strategic choice leads to children dying of starvation when the food is available to feed them, a civilized nation has to make a different choice, even if that makes things easier for its enemy to some degree.
00:52:39.000Okay, again, this is utterly principle-free.
00:52:41.000If this were the case, then the United States would have had an obligation during World War II, when starvation was a real thing in many areas of the globe, to ship in aid at the cost of the death of thousands of American soldiers.
00:52:59.000Now, Ros Staffat goes out of his way to then disown America's warfighting of the past, which is really, it must be nice to be able to sit on top of a mountain where wars are fought absolutely antiseptically and then pretend that when the cost isn't yours, you get to just have others bear it.
00:53:15.000He says, right now, if I were predicting an endgame for the struggle, it would involve Israel finally stepping back in exhaustion, cordoning off the Gaza Strip again, watching bloody power struggles play out in an isolated Gaza and accepting that some kind of terrorist threat will be harbored there for years to come.
00:53:28.000If that's the outcome, then fighting on for another year to end up there is an unjust waste of life.
00:53:33.000Well, so I'm just going to point out that you are calling for them to do it now.
00:53:54.000I got to say the amount of misinformed commentary here and deliberately misleading commentary is truly astonishing.
00:54:01.000Barack Obama is the best case in point of this.
00:54:02.000Barack Obama, who is awful on this issue as he is on virtually all other issues, he says, while a lasting resolution to the crisis in Gaza must involve a return of all hostages and a cessation of Israel's military operations, these articles underscore the immediate need for action to be taken to prevent the travesty of innocent people dying of preventable starvation.
00:54:21.000So in other words, Israel should just let its hostages molder in tunnels and hand aid to Hamas.
00:54:26.000According to Barack Obama, there's a shock.
00:54:27.000Couldn't have predicted he would be there, except for, of course, he would.
00:54:42.000You know, when I see the children and when I see, especially over the last couple of weeks, and people are stealing the food, they're stealing the money.
00:54:50.000They're stealing the money for the food.
00:55:11.000Israel's solution and the GHF's solution has been, let's get a supply line in there that only gets it to Palestinian civilians because that brings an end to the war.
00:55:20.000And Hamas is fighting back the best way it knows how by creating massive amounts of human misery and suffering and then blaming Israel for it, hoping the rest of the world will then cave to Hamas' demands.
00:55:32.000Israel, since this war began, has supplied over 94,000 truckloads full of food.
00:55:38.000It's enough food to feed 2 million people for two years, trying to get that into Gaza.
00:55:42.000But Hamas has stolen the food, a huge amount.
00:55:47.000In fact, in 2024, the numbers are that Hamas profited over $500 million in stolen food aid that was supposed to go to these poor people who needed it.
00:56:05.000In order to fix the system, you at least have to acknowledge the problem with the system.
00:56:09.000And it is incredible to me that if you acknowledge the problem with the system, meaning Hamas stealing the aid, and then your solution is to let Hamas steal the aid, thus to prolong the war and ensure that Hamas remains in control.
00:56:41.000We don't know sort of the origins of the fight, but it ended with, again, there's no way to do this without discussing the racial angle to this, with a group of black men beating the living hell out of a white man, curb stomping him, essentially.
00:56:52.000And then when his girlfriend comes to try and protest, knocking her out.
00:57:05.000A group of young black males who are attacking him, knocking him to the ground, punching him, kicking him, beating him senseless on the ground.
00:57:34.000If the suspects' races were reversed, if everybody involved, the races were reversed, we know this would be a national news story for days.
00:57:41.000If this were a group of young white men beating the living hell out of a black man, and then the black man's girlfriend had come up and confronted the white men, and one of them had cold cocked her and knocked her to the ground so that she was lying on the ground bleeding profusely.
00:57:57.000Instead, it is a local news story with literally zero national news coverage.
00:58:01.000If you search for more information on it, it is almost impossible to find.
00:58:04.000Cincinnati police chief sent a statement about the incident.
00:58:07.000It's only been covered very briefly by WKRC in Cincinnati.
00:58:11.000Quote, police said they were investigating a large fight that occurred on 4th Street Friday night.
00:58:15.000Videos circulating on social media depicts a man being punched by multiple people and falling to the ground, where he is then repeatedly kicked.
00:58:21.000A woman is also seen being attacked and knocked to the ground.
00:58:25.000Authorities are working to gather more information about the incident.
00:58:27.000The Cincinnati police chief sent a statement, quote, I am In complete disgust, waking up to the viral video many of you have now seen.
00:58:33.000The behavior displayed is nothing short of cruel and absolutely unacceptable.
00:58:36.000Our investigative team is working diligently to identify every individual involved in causing harm.
00:58:41.000It's also important to clarify: this is a sudden dispute between individuals following a verbal altercation.
00:58:46.000It was not connected in any way to the music fest.
00:58:50.000The real story here, of course, is not the actual incident, which, of course, should be news, and we should have more information on what exactly happened here.
00:58:59.000The real story is the dramatic lack of news coverage.
00:59:03.000And it just demonstrates, as we've been discussing, the death of the legacy media is self-inflicted.
00:59:09.000Their inability to cover in any level of equality racial incidents, regardless, by the way, of the prevalence of the racial incidents, because it is significantly more common for a black person to assault a white person per capita than for a white person to assault a black person.
00:59:25.000Now, again, as I mentioned, with regard to these specific statistics, it's also way more common for a black person to assault a black person and a white person to assault a white person.
00:59:33.000And not every cross-racial incident is about the race.
00:59:36.000But for a media that always makes it about the race, when it's white on black, when it's black on white, to completely ignore it, it just demonstrates why the credibility of the media is absolutely in the toilet.
00:59:48.000And again, I'm looking at it right now.
00:59:50.000There is literally no media coverage of this in the national media, none.
00:59:55.000And we know that it would be precisely the opposite if the races were reversed.
01:00:00.000The hatred that Americans have for institutions, a hatred that, again, in some ways is salutary because it means that we are more skeptical of the narratives being retailed.
01:00:09.000And in some ways, incredibly dangerous.
01:00:10.000Because if you're not skeptical of other narratives, then you end up buying into a bunch of BS.
01:00:16.000All of that is earned by the legacy media.
