A group of former Bush administration officials are now openly backing Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump, and it's not because they don't like Trump. It's because they didn't like him in the first place. And they don t like him because he's not only a bad president, he's a terrible presidential candidate. And that's why they didn t just back Trump in 2016. They didn't even bother to vote for him in 2016 because they couldn't stand him. They hated him. And now they're backing Hillary because they think she's better than Trump, which is exactly why they opposed him. Ben Shapiro breaks it all down and explains why the Bush insider crew didn t vote for Trump and why they should have voted for Ted Cruz. Plus, a story about a 13-year-old girl who was killed by an Arab girl who slaughtered a 13 year old girl, and why that's legitimately the worst story of the day.

00:00:00.000On Thursday, The Hill reported a series of major Bushworld policy advisors are openly endorsing Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump.
00:00:07.000First point, if Bushworld were actually a theme park, it would be the worst theme park ever.
00:00:11.000Among those figures, former Secretary of the Treasury Hank Paulson, former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage, and former National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft.
00:00:20.000The former Deputy Press Secretary to George W, his name is Tony Fratto, he told The Hill, quote, I think it's an easy call.
00:01:14.000These are the moderate establishment figures.
00:01:16.000And they refuse to back Trump, but not because his positions corrupt conservatism.
00:01:21.000Many of them likely would have backed Hillary over Ted Cruz, actually.
00:01:24.000These are people who refused to endorse Cruz to stop Trump in the first place because they like Trump positions better than Cruz.
00:01:30.000Now they've got their excuse to back Hillary because Trump's so terrible.
00:01:33.000Many conservatives have been burying their annoyance for years over the Bush family's closeness with the Clinton family.
00:01:39.000We always suspected that the Republican establishment prefers this kind of oligarchic backroom drinking buddy Democrat nonsense to outsider conservatives.
00:01:48.000The Bush family's relationship with the Clinton mob, that was exhibit A in the case against the Republican establishment.
00:01:53.000And that's why so many conservatives resonated to Trump smacking down the Bush family and their 2016 emissary, Jeb.
00:02:01.000It was really fun watching Trump knock Jeb through the nearest wall.
00:02:41.000But Bushworld's mobilization behind Clinton, it reminds us that Bushworld trolled conservatives into getting behind Trump in the first place.
00:03:22.000We are going to be talking near the end of the show about things I like and things I hate, which are some of the favorite segments of the show.
00:03:27.000So if you're just watching Facebook Live, you're getting a lot.
00:03:29.000I mean, let's face it, you're getting a lot.
00:03:31.000But you could be getting a lot more if you subscribe to Daily Wire.
00:03:33.000And if you want to just download the audio, you go to Apple, you go to iTunes, or you go to SoundCloud, and you can get the podcast there.
00:03:59.000The reason this is an international story is because the Palestinian went into her bedroom, climbed into her house, and stabbed her to death in her bed.
00:04:06.000And you can see in the picture that we're showing right now, you can see the blood on her bed, right?
00:04:18.000And the international community, they proclaim that they're really sad about all of this, and then they said, well, you know, what really matters is where she was killed.
00:04:26.000No, not in her bedroom, not in her bedroom.
00:04:27.000It's that her bedroom was in the wrong place.
00:04:30.000It's that her bedroom was in the wrong place.
00:04:31.000Because her bedroom, you see, was in a place called Kiryat Arba.
00:04:34.000Curiat Arba is a place near Chevron, it's near Hebron, and it's in the so-called West Bank, Judea and Samaria.
00:04:41.000Now, for a bit of historical background for you, Judea and Samaria are the actual heart of what Israel is, okay?
00:04:46.000Tel Aviv is not really... it's part of original Israel, but it's certainly not paramount to the Bible.
00:05:02.000Even if you think, by the way, that the Palestinian Arabs ought to control that land, which, I don't know why you'd want terrorists controlling the land, but let's say you do, even if you think that, you should ask yourself why it is that that land has to be Jew-free.
00:05:13.000There are lots of Arabs living inside Israel.
00:05:14.000Why does Palestinian Arab land have to be Jew-free?
00:05:16.000There are zero Jews living in the Gaza Strip right now, right?
00:05:20.000But the idea is that she had no right to be living where she's living, so if this Arab crawls in her bedroom window and stabs her to death,
00:05:26.000And stabs her to death, then that's totally fine because of where this was.
00:05:32.000I mean, nobody should be shocked that this is how the Palestinians, the Palestinian Arabs act.
00:05:36.000They particularly shouldn't be shocked.
00:05:37.000I'm getting very sick of hearing that this is all about the territory.
00:05:40.000It has nothing to do with the territory.
00:05:41.000It has nothing to do with the settlements.
00:05:43.000The same day this happened, two more Jews were stabbed in Netanya, which literally is on the Mediterranean coast, which is like the heart of Israeli territory under any settlement negotiation.
00:05:53.000In any case, the real reason that this is happening is radical Islam.
00:05:56.000The same reason that Turkey got bombed the other day.
00:05:58.000The same reason that France gets shot up every couple of months.
00:06:00.000The same reason 49 gay people just got shot in Orlando.
00:06:03.000The same reason that a bunch of people got shot in San Bernardino.
00:06:05.000That's why this little girl got stabbed to death.
00:06:08.000According to the international leftist community, she got stabbed because she was living in the wrong place because she had no right to be sleeping in her bedroom at night.
00:06:15.000That's according to the international leftist community.
00:06:18.000Within hours of her funeral, the so-called Middle East Quartet, this would be the UN evil organization, the European Union morally bankrupt organization, the United States led by the morally bankrupt, Jew-hating Obama administration, and the Russians, who obviously are just out for themselves and really don't care,
00:06:36.000They came out and they said, well, really what needs to happen here is Jews need to stop building bedrooms in the West Bank, right?
00:06:41.000They need to stop building bedrooms in Judea and Samaria.
00:06:43.000You want to know the real reason, gang?
00:06:45.000Why Palestinian Arabs are killing people?
00:07:47.000And they're taking rocks and throwing it at the children.
00:07:51.000This is how they are training their small children.
00:07:53.000You tell me whether this has to do with Western civilization versus radical Islam, or whether this has to do with where somebody's building an extra bedroom.
00:08:43.000Now, if the Obama administration got a hold of that quote, presumably that quote would read, Because we can't talk about the reality, which is that we're all in the same battle here.
00:09:27.000They have to separate the Jews off, even from the West.
00:09:29.000I mean, you remember back during the Charlie Hebdo attack, you remember that there were terrorists, and they went and they shot up a French newspaper?
00:09:35.000You remember where they went from the French newspaper?
00:09:37.000They went from the French newspaper to a kosher supermarket.
00:09:54.000The left has never suggested, for all the crap the left has suggested, they've never suggested that the French have to negotiate with ISIS.
00:10:00.000They've never suggested the United States has to negotiate with ISIS, right?
00:10:04.000They've blamed it on other things, but they've never said, okay, let's open a negotiation with ISIS.
00:10:08.000They say every day that Israel ought to open a negotiation with the people who celebrate people who stabbed to death 13-year-old girls in their bedroom.
00:10:16.000This is the purest form of evil, and the left is attendant upon it, the left is part of it, and all that really does is, for Jews like me, it underscores the importance of the State of Israel, a place that continues to defend Jews as Jews, right?
00:10:28.000That was the original purpose of the State of Israel from a secular point of view, was a place that was going to defend Jews when they were left out there alone by the rest of the world.
00:10:37.000And, once again, they're left out there alone by the rest of the world.
00:10:39.000Everybody will pay lip service to how terrible it is, and then they'll say that it really is the fault of these crazy Jews for having built their bedrooms.
00:10:46.000The stabbings are secondary to the building of the bedroom.
00:10:49.000So that's, to me, that's the biggest story of the day, and it's going to be undercover by the media, because it's just not that important, because it's Jews being killed, right?
00:10:57.000It's not gays being killed in Orlando, or editors being killed in France, or even people being killed in Turkey.
00:11:03.000This will be covered by virtually no one tonight.
00:11:05.000This will be covered by virtually no one, because Jews are a little bit different, which is sickening.
00:11:09.000Okay, so, on another note, on another note,
00:11:13.000President Obama is very, very angry at Donald Trump.
00:11:17.000And he was in Canada yesterday, and he did legitimately, I don't think we grabbed footage of, but the world's most awkward handshake with Justin Trudeau and Enrique Peña Nieto, who is the president of Mexico.
00:11:28.000They all met together, and they started kind of doing a handshake, or it looked like they were doing a secret handshake to get into the
00:11:36.000It was either that or some other boys-only club.
00:11:38.000But in any case, they had this weird handshake, and then President Obama got up and spoke in front of the Parliament, and he decided to rip on Donald Trump.
00:14:16.000It was directed at Poles and Italians.
00:14:18.000And you can go back and read what was said about those groups, and it's identical to what they're now saying about Mexicans or Guatemalans or Salvadorans or Muslims or Asians.
00:14:56.000We have to kill the live feed now, but if you want to listen to the rest and see the rest, go to dailywire.com.
00:15:00.000I'll explain why President Obama's wrong and his head is actually so far up his butt it's coming out his mouth again.
00:15:05.000I'll explain all of that if you go and subscribe at Daily Wire.
00:15:07.000Plus we have the mailbag coming up and we haven't even talked about Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton's meeting with Loretta Lynch on the tarmac.
00:15:13.000We haven't done Good Trump, Bad Trump.
00:15:14.000There's so much more to get to that you're missing because you're just watching on Facebook Live.
00:15:38.000It used to be that we didn't hand people welfare benefits.
00:15:41.000So it's true, when people came here from Germany or when they came from Eastern Europe, lots of Jews, when Italians came here, there was a lot of talk about crime.
00:15:48.000There's a lot of talk about an underclass coming in.
00:16:08.000It's a pretty good film, and it's about an Irish immigrant coming over to the United States, and you'll see this is exactly what it's about, basically.
00:16:16.000And she gets help from her, from her, basically her family and her church to find a job and they help integrate her into the society.
00:16:23.000There's no, at no point in the film does she go to the government office looking for a check.
00:16:26.000Once you create a system with a government office where people are looking for a check, then the culture of the people coming over actually matters a lot more.
00:16:34.000Because before, you were having, it's a different magnet drawing a different type of people.
00:16:39.000It's a different system that draws a different type of immigrant.
00:16:42.000And if people don't integrate into the prevailing society, they're never going to be able to get a job.
00:16:47.000If you sit apart from the rest of the society, believing in a culture that doesn't exist here, you're going to have a problem getting a job and living and staying and working.
00:16:55.000And so there had to be an integration just by force of capitalism.
00:17:00.000That's the difference between the so-called anti-immigrant demagoguery of the 1870s, kind of the know-nothing demagoguery of the 1860s, and the so-called anti-immigrant demagoguery of Donald Trump.
00:18:04.000Okay, my wife worked at the VA when she was in medical school, and one of the things she did at the VA is she had to take training as to what sort of information she was allowed to take in and out of the building because of HIPAA, because of federal law.
00:18:15.000If she had accidentally taken out medical records from the building and put them in her car, that would be a crime, right, to do that.
00:18:21.000Now imagine that she had set up a private server and downloaded all of the HIPAA records there.
00:18:35.000This is discovered by a local media outlet in Phoenix.
00:18:37.000Loretta Lynch, the Attorney General of the United States, she meets with Bill Clinton on the tarmac in the middle of nowhere at this little airbase in Phoenix.
00:19:14.000Now you have Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and she's showing up on the tarmac and meeting privately with no cameras and no media and no one else there with Bill Clinton.
00:19:24.000So Loretta Lynch says, of course, that this is all totally harmless.
00:19:27.000Here's what Loretta Lynch had to say about it.
00:19:29.000General Loretta Lynch met with former President Bill Clinton earlier this week.
00:19:34.000So, Paula, how did this meeting happen?
00:19:36.000We just got some tape of Lynch explaining this today.
00:20:19.000They just happen to be at the same airbase, and she's just walking around the tarmac for no reason, and Bill looks out the window and goes, Hey, look, it's Loretta.
00:22:01.000And he's sitting there with the police uniform on and they're talking to each other and they're saying what they want to say and it's not even translated.
00:22:07.000So unless you speak Italian, you don't know what they're saying.
00:22:34.000Bill has more grandchildren than he's even willing to talk about, I'm sure.
00:22:38.000I mean, the idea that Bill's calling her on board to say, yeah, Loretta, I was just hanging out with Charlotte the other day, and she was so cutie.
00:22:49.000Like, the idea that that's the conversation and not, well, hi there, O'Reilly, you know, my wife's running for president and, you know, we know that you're not going to indict her or anything.
00:22:57.000Well, we think that maybe there might be a slot for you opening up in the next administration.
00:23:00.000Like, that that's not the conversation?
00:23:11.000Even the Democrats, by the way, know that this looks awkward.
00:23:15.000Senator, I think it's Chris Coons from Delaware.
00:23:17.000He says that this is he says that this this was probably a bad idea.
00:23:22.000What do you think about the impropriety or the appearance of that?
00:23:27.000Well, listen, I've just heard about this this morning.
00:23:29.000My impression of the meeting was that the attorney general was coming into Phoenix to give a speech about community policing and that the former president asked to talk to her briefly about community policing.
00:23:43.000I do agree with you that it doesn't send the right signal.
00:23:46.000I am impressed with Attorney General Loretta Lynch, the work that she's done in combating violent crime and in leading the Department of Justice, and she has generally shown excellent judgment and strong leadership of the department, and I'm convinced that she is an independent Attorney General.
00:24:00.000But I do think that this meeting sends the wrong signal, and I don't think it sends the right signal.
00:24:05.000I think she should have steered clear.
00:24:07.000Even of a brief, casual social meeting with the former president.
00:24:10.000She should have said, no thank you, I'm not available to meet right now.
00:24:15.000I think she should have said, look, I recognize you have a long record of leadership on fighting crime, but this is not the time for us to have that conversation.
00:24:22.000After the election's over, I'd welcome your advice and input.
00:24:31.000I love when he says that she's not corrupt, she's really doing hard work.
00:24:34.000Loretta Lynch is the lady who's used the Department of Justice to threaten prosecution against people who participate in anti-Islamic speech.
00:24:41.000Loretta Lynch is the lady who's used the Department of Justice to crack down on private businesses as well as police departments that have nothing to do with racism.
00:25:04.000Well, but don't worry, the media won't focus on any of that.
00:25:07.000And they also won't focus on the fact that the left refuses to acknowledge real dangers to the country.
00:25:12.000They just say, okay, so Hillary is corrupt, whatever.
00:25:14.000Okay, so there are real dangers to the country, whatever.
00:25:16.000There's a DHS whistleblower, Department of Homeland Security whistleblower, and his name is Philip Haney, and he was testifying on the Hill yesterday.
00:25:24.000Listen to what he says about what the federal government has been doing to cover up for terrorism, and then we'll talk about how the left has responded to all of this.
00:25:31.000Between these two days, 2008 and 2016, came what I call the first great purge.
00:25:37.000When I was ordered by the Department of Homeland Security headquarters to modify a euphemism, removing all linking information out of approximately 820 text subject records in our law enforcement system that almost exclusively had to do with Muslim Brotherhood Network here in the United States.
00:25:58.000I was told to remove all unauthorized references to terrorism, that I was no longer allowed to do what are called memorandums of information received, what we call MOIRs, no more text records, no more research, and no more special treatment from the agency.
00:26:15.000But during that time, hundreds of law enforcement actions had been taken in the three-year period when those 820-plus records were still in the law enforcement system.
00:26:27.000At exactly the same time, a controversial inaugural meeting took place on January 27th and 28th, 2010, between American Muslim leaders and the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, which was hosted by the Department of Homeland Security, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties.
00:26:47.000It was controversial because several of the individuals who attended the invitation-only conference in D.C.
00:26:53.000were known affiliates of at least two of the same Muslim Brotherhood front groups that had just been named as unindicted co-conspirators in the largest terrorism trial in the history of the United States.
00:27:05.000Haney, it's difficult to listen to him because he's very boring, but what he's saying is that the Department of Homeland Security basically wiped out of its records affiliations with terrorist groups, including the Muslim Brotherhood, for people under investigation, and then proceeded to even meet with people who had those affiliations in their civil rights division.
00:28:34.000They should be doing it for all the victims.
00:28:36.000They should be doing it for all victims, but the only time I've ever seen the left treat victims as victims is when they're trying to push gun control or when they're trying to ban the Confederate flag.
00:28:44.000And they did this sort of stuff for the shooting in Charleston.
00:28:47.000They should be doing it when they're ripping against Islamic radicalism, but they don't care about any of that stuff.
00:28:52.000And they don't care about the corruption, and they don't care about the fact the Obama administration doesn't care about that stuff.
00:28:57.000They don't care about any of that, and Whoopi Goldberg makes that clear.
00:28:59.000The Benghazi report comes out earlier this week, says that
00:29:03.000Hillary literally went to sleep, basically, while people were under fire.
00:29:07.000And that the big debate in the White House was, do we spin this so that it's about a YouTube video, or do we not spin it so that it's about a YouTube video?
00:29:12.000And also, should our soldiers wear a uniform if they go in and save our guys?
00:29:16.000Let's dither around for eight hours and do nothing.
00:29:18.000But here's Whoopi Goldberg summing up the thoughts of the left on all this stuff.
00:29:21.000I mean, this is stomach-churning, folks.
00:29:22.000Here's Whoopi Goldberg on The View, the repository of all human stupidity, a place where the total grand combined IQ of all the people on the panel is lower than
00:29:32.000Then my weight, with a couple of decimal points, moved over.
00:29:36.000Here's Whoopi Goldberg, one of the stupidest people in American politics.
00:30:06.000I'll tell you who wasn't bored, the people who died there.
00:30:08.000I'll tell you who's not gonna be bored, all the people who are gonna die because people like you don't care.
00:30:12.000The people who aren't, they're not gonna be bored, they're gonna be dead.
00:30:15.000Because the left refuses to acknowledge the problem, wants to put in power a lady who has no capacity for non-corruption, a lady who puts her own personal self-aggrandizement and power above the lives of other fellow Americans who are in harm's way.
00:30:54.000Here's a CNN reporter explaining that this whole terrorism thing is just getting in the way of what we really ought to be talking about, and what we really ought to be talking about is climate change.
00:31:03.000I think that virtually every time we go on one of these foreign trips where the White House wants to emphasize something else, I mean, here, they really want to be focusing on North America and climate change again.
00:31:15.000Terrorism has overshadowed some of those subjects, and we know that the president's going to be getting more questions about this, and those abilities of ISIS to launch these attacks throughout the day.
00:32:25.000See, this is the thing about this particular feature of the Ben Shapiro show, this new and really, I think, consistent feature of the Ben Shapiro show.
00:32:33.000Every single day, there's good Trump and bad Trump.
00:32:35.000There's no day that goes by where it's just good Trump.
00:32:37.000There's no day that goes by that it's just bad Trump.
00:32:39.000It's almost always there's some good Trump, and there's always some bad Trump.
00:32:42.000So it's time for some good Trump, bad Trump.
00:32:47.000Donald Trump talked yesterday about Syrian refugees being allowed into Europe.
00:32:51.000He said this on Bill O'Reilly's show, and this is exactly right.
00:32:55.000If he made this the sole focus of his campaign, gang, he would be in good shape.
00:32:58.000If he actually made this the sole focus, after everything that I've just said, the corruption, the felonious backroom dealing,
00:33:03.000The fact that the left is totally bored and willing to allow Westerners to be killed, whether they're Jews in Israel or whether they're gays in Orlando, this would be where Trump can make his hay.
00:34:59.000So Trump also was talking more about free trade yesterday.
00:35:02.000One of the things that's very irritating to me politically, and it's very hard for me on politics, I do think that there are smart things and stupid things in politics.
00:35:09.000I think there are true things and false things in politics.
00:35:12.000And I think that politicians will basically lie to you in order to get you to do what they want you to do.
00:35:18.000I think right now there's a movement by the left and by the right, really by the left, because Trump is of the left, on trade, to rip on free trade.
00:35:27.000And we talked for 20 minutes yesterday about Trump's anti-free trade policies.
00:35:32.000Both Trump and Hillary Clinton are lying to you about free trade.
00:35:36.000Here is Donald Trump lying to you about free trade yesterday.
00:35:40.000You go down the line and you look at what we've accomplished together, and I said to myself, why would the U.S.
00:35:47.000Chamber of Commerce criticize what I'm saying?
00:37:04.000Question is, how will it play in the country?
00:37:06.000I think what's most interesting is the fact that if the Republicans are now banning free trade, for the first time ever in our memory, we're having a presidential campaign where neither side is for free trade.
00:37:22.000For our allies abroad, the Australians, the Canadians, the Mexicans, imagine the Mexicans looking at the cancellation of NAFTA, what effect it would have on them.
00:37:32.000They're looking at a race where the country, with both parties, is now turning against free trade.
00:37:39.000They had always assumed the United States to be the one country that would rise above the most narrow economic nationalism and save the idea of free trade.
00:37:51.000Okay, so what Krauthammer there is saying is true, although I will say that when he says we'd rise above the most narrow economic nationalism, economic nationalism would require free trade, as I said yesterday.
00:38:05.000If you were actually an economic nationalist and you wanted America to be economically strong, you wouldn't fight free trade.
00:38:46.000Oh, well, we can get into that if you want.
00:38:49.000I mean, we can get into the fact that he accused my best friend's father of conspiring to kill JFK.
00:38:56.000We can go through the fact that he's made some statements that some have identified correctly as religiously intolerant.
00:39:03.000We can get into the fact that wildly unpopular in my state.
00:39:07.000In part because my state consists of people who are members of a religious minority church, of people who were ordered exterminated by the governor of Missouri in 1838, and statements like that make them nervous.
00:39:18.000Now look, these things are not something that I couldn't get over if I heard the right things out of them.
00:39:25.000But if you want to go to why it is I have concerns, I can go on if you'd like.
00:40:29.000I guess after they both broke up with Trump, they have a rebound relationship.
00:40:33.000But here, Joe and Mika, apparently today, they kind of were flirting with each other on the air, because this is our media now, and it makes you want to just hang yourself.
00:40:48.000By the way, there's a lot of lead stories today, but why don't we start with the Trump lead stories?
00:40:52.000I will finish your sentence and start with politics.
00:40:55.000A new poll in the presidential race shows the growing worry in the GOP about Donald Trump's struggle.
00:41:01.000Okay, so there's a lot of lead stories today, aren't there?
00:41:06.000Okay, so, all right, time for some things I like and then some things that I hate.
00:41:10.000So things I like, we're finishing up with pre-Hays Code films.
00:41:13.000Pre-Hays Code films include, the Hays Code was from 1933 to 1960, to reiterate, as we've said every day this week, that Hollywood imposed on itself a voluntary standard for how movies were gonna go.
00:41:24.000And before that, the movies were very risque, they were very edgy, and some of the people who were stars that were hurt by the Hays Code
00:41:33.000Oh, Your Excellency, I must speak to you!
00:42:43.000So because it's a Thursday and we're near the end of the week, the other thing I like is I've been doing sort of a Bible segment at the end of the week.
00:42:53.000This week's Parsha is a Torah portion that Jews read every week.
00:42:57.000Throughout the whole year we get through the entire Bible by reading a portion every week.
00:43:00.000This week, it's from Numbers, from the Book of Numbers, and the Book of Numbers 14, 18 through 20.
00:43:06.000So, those aren't the only verses, but this is the ones we're quoting right now.
00:43:10.000So this week's Parsha is Parsha Shalach.
00:43:13.000This is the portion of the Torah, the portion of the Old Testament, in which the Jews are told by Moses, go ahead and spy out the land, they come back, they say, we can't do this, no way, we can't handle this, and God gets angry, and he says, okay, well then this entire generation's gonna die out in the desert,
00:43:29.000And then we'll replace them with a new generation of Jews, and those are going to be the people who go in.
00:43:33.000And there's one point there where God says to Moses, God, these people are so irritating.
00:43:42.000And Moses, because he's humble, and because even though he's been really put to the metal by the Jews throughout the Torah, I mean, they're constantly complaining.
00:43:53.000He finally says to God, don't do that.
00:43:57.000If you do that, people are going to say, well, God promised to get the Jews out and bring them to Israel, and then he didn't do it, so God doesn't keep his promises.
00:44:03.000So here is what Moses says to God to get him to change his mind, basically.
00:44:09.000He says, The Lord is slow to anger and abundantly kind, forgiving iniquity and transgression, who cleanses some and does not cleanse others, who visit the iniquities of parents on children, even to the third and fourth generations.
00:44:19.000Jews say this a lot right around Yom Kippur, right around the Day of Atonement.
00:45:40.000I can see how my grandparents impacted my parents, who impact me, who impact how I raise my kids.
00:45:44.000The bad thing is that they do carry three or four generations, but there's another version of this in the Bible where it says God remembers kindnesses down to the thousandth generation, and that's the kindness.
00:45:53.000So the justice is that the things you do have an impact on future generations.
00:45:56.000The kindness is that God relieves you of those things and remembers all the good things that you do down to the thousandth generation.
00:46:03.000Now time for a couple of quick things that I hate, and then we still have the mailbag, so, I mean, we've blown through the clock and, you know, it's over, gang.
00:46:33.000And that's relevant only because they're pretending that Caitlyn Jenner is a woman, and so he is thus a woman with a penis, and wearing his gold medals.
00:46:41.000And they say, oh, as you know her now, Bruce Jenner, 40 years after Montreal.
00:46:46.000Caitlyn shouldn't be wearing those medals, because woman Caitlyn did not win those medals, right?
00:46:54.000Caitlyn would not have been allowed to participate, presumably competing against women, and after the hormone therapy, would not be winning against men.
00:47:02.000But this is the whole new civil rights frontier for the left, and what's so damaging about this is that the myth that men can turn into women and women can turn into men, it confuses kids particularly, and they're pushing it into every aspect of culture.
00:47:13.000They have a transgender character in Finding Dory now.
00:47:16.000They're trying to tell kids that you can choose your own gender, which is absolute bunk.
00:47:24.000There's a reason that the suicidality rate, pre-post-op doesn't matter, well above 40% for people in the so-called transgender community.
00:47:33.000But the mainstreaming of this and the suggestion that people like me, who say, okay, this is a person I feel terrible for, this is not a woman.
00:47:41.000People like me, it's our fault if bad things happen to Caitlyn Jenner.
00:47:44.000No, the bad thing already happened to Caitlyn Jenner.
00:47:46.000Caitlyn Jenner is mentally ill, and this is a terrible, terrible thing, and they're celebrating a terrible thing.
00:47:50.000This is a person who had an eight-hour surgery on his face, woke up crying and saying, what did I do?
00:47:55.000They called the psychiatrist to come in and explain, no, it's perfectly normal to feel bad about them doing an eight-hour surgery, but it'll be fine.
00:49:01.000And the only reason I can imagine that this is the case is because people don't- is because, as the Insane Clown Posse says, I mean, we can listen to the genius of the Insane Clown Posse explain it.
00:49:22.000That's, I think, the sentiment behind the addiction to these magnets.
00:49:26.000I had a co-host, and my other co-host, who's a lefty, which presumes that he's kind of dumb, he immediately said, how does it work?
00:49:33.000I mean, are they, like, forcing the magnets together?
00:49:35.000Or, like, if they take the magnets away, will it fall?
00:50:23.000He said, anything other than a vote for Trump is a vote for Hillary.
00:50:26.000My question to you is, does that last statement, is anything other than a vote for Trump is a vote for Hillary idea hold any weight in this election at all?
00:51:02.000The reason that I disagree is because my view is that you're corrupting your principles in order to vote for a guy who's, number one, going to lose.
00:51:09.000And number two, even if he wins, is then going to corrupt the future of conservatism and turn it into European far-right nationalism.
00:51:15.000And it's going to be very difficult for the conservative movement to recover from the leadership of somebody like Trump.
00:51:20.000Particularly when conservatives fall in line and tell each other to shut up about all of the terrible things that he does and says and all of the principles that he undermines.
00:51:28.000For example, Stephen Moore is a really good economist.
00:51:30.000Stephen Moore, a free trader, he's basically gone silent now and he's trying to pretend that Donald Trump isn't anti-free trade.
00:52:09.000Who fall into the alt-right trap where they think that they're doing some great good for the universe by shouting cuck at people or by using the n-word in chat rooms?
00:52:16.000And then they're gonna find out that not only did they not do their movements any good, not only did they not break the stranglehold of the SJWs, but they actually are going to be targeted and ruined by the SJWs for saying things that are pretty much indefensible.
00:53:06.000You talked about how tariffs are bad for the economy, which I agree with.
00:53:09.000But if it would mean an elimination of the income tax in America, would you support going back to a system where virtually 100% of federal funding comes from tariffs and the IRF keeps their grubby fingers off our paychecks?
00:53:19.000Uh, well, I mean, that's not the choice before us.
00:53:23.000I think that if we were to talk about eliminating the income tax versus the sort of protectionism that would pay for our current budget, no.
00:53:28.000If we're talking about the sort of tariffs that prevailed at the beginning of the republic versus the income tax, absolutely.
00:53:34.000I mean, those were pretty low tariffs.
00:53:35.000It depends on the level of tariffs, in other words.
00:53:37.000If you're talking about a full protectionism,
00:53:41.000Then no, because full protectionism destroys your economy.
00:53:44.000But this is really a mathematical calculation, not a moral one, since both of these things are bad.
00:53:47.000The income tax is bad, and tariffs are bad.
00:53:50.000If you're gonna have any sort of tax at all to raise money for the federal government, my view is that the only real tax that's fair is a tax
00:53:59.000Maybe on consumption and only for purposes of how it's spent.
00:54:03.000The purpose of the means of the tax is less important to me than the spending that arises from the tax.
00:54:08.000The reason income taxes are so high is because we have a welfare state.
00:54:11.000Get rid of the welfare state, you won't need all these tax dollars.
00:54:14.000One of the things I think is so stupid about how Republicans talk about taxes is when they say things like, and George Gilder makes this point, when they say things like,
00:54:21.000You know, we really have to... the Laffer Curve.
00:54:24.000If we just lower tax rates, we'll get more government revenue.
00:54:51.000As far as minority votes in the election, Hillary's going to rely heavily on them.
00:54:55.000One of the reasons I think Hillary will do well is because the minority vote will come out not at the same rates as Obama, but in the same percentages.
00:55:03.000And she'll do much better with the white vote than Obama ever did.
00:55:41.000So I really need to sit down with just a speech of Trump and honest to God, listening through a speech of Trump doing this would be so hard, but I need to kind of stop and start and work with my Trump impression.
00:56:58.000I don't feel the need to go to a football game.
00:57:00.000Me spending taxpayer money to bring the Rams back to LA.
00:57:03.000They couldn't sustain them here the first time.
00:57:05.000They couldn't sustain them here the second time.
00:57:06.000So, I don't see why they'd sustain them here now.
00:57:08.000Okay, Taylor says, With the government continuing to grow more and more, at what point would you say our government would become tyrannical?
00:57:14.000Would it become possible at this point for the people to fully implement the Second Amendment, take up arms, start an uprising against the government, actually be successful?
00:57:21.000Okay, so this is a question, this is maybe the hardest question in American politics.
00:57:24.000It's almost, you don't know it until you see it.
00:57:26.000I can tell you what my personal breaking point is.
00:57:29.000My personal breaking point comes when they come to me and they say, we're going to take your kid from you because you refuse to abide by our rules.
00:57:38.000I think that's a lot of people's personal breaking point.
00:57:40.000I think we're now- I think tyranny is gradations.
00:57:42.000I don't think there's, like, a hard point where it's tyranny.
00:57:45.000I think we're already living in a bureaucratic tyranny.
00:57:46.000The question is, what level of tyranny justifies armed resistance?
00:57:49.000I think if they come to me and they say, you can't worship as you see fit, and we're gonna take your kid away from you if you try to do so, that's when I'm coming at you with a gun.
00:57:58.000Right, that's when I'm coming at you with a gun.
00:57:59.000And the other alternative being you move.
00:58:02.000But if they come after Texas, if they come after Idaho, if it becomes there are no places in America that you can even run to, you can't even move, or they restrict your movement, I can't leave California to go there, then armed resistance becomes necessary.
00:58:21.000It's one thing to do this to people in California.
00:58:23.000It's another thing to go to the people of Texas and say, by the way, we're taking your kids because you're not teaching your five-year-old about transgenderism.
00:58:44.000He talks about cultural appropriation, he hates jokes at the expense of marginalized people, as he calls them, and worst of all, he's a vegan.
00:58:51.000Okay, so first of all, I'm gonna make fun of vegans for just a second.
00:58:54.000I'm gonna make fun of vegans for just a second, because they're marginalized people, and I'm gonna culturally appropriate by saying that he may be a vegetable.
00:59:02.000Okay, the point being, how will you raise your kids to instill conservative values in them?
00:59:06.000You have to give kids a mission in life.
00:59:08.000It's not just enough to raise them with conservative values, you have to give them a mission, and the mission is living out those values in a way that makes the world a better place.
00:59:31.000Your mission is to promulgate those values among family and friends, to build families that are capable of fighting for those values, to spread those values throughout the world.
00:59:49.000So, I will say this is kind of a funny answer, but if I could pick one movie that I think would be a successful box office movie, because there are lots of movies that you can, and like a movie about something, the movie that I would do is a movie about the Ollie Frazier fights.
01:00:08.000Ali-Frazier is so fascinating because it was such a cultural phenomenon.
01:00:11.000Joe Frazier was a working-class hero, a black working-class hero from Philadelphia who wanted to bring races together.
01:00:17.000Ali was a race-baiting, nation-of-Islam radical.
01:00:21.000And Frazier basically got him back into boxing, lobbied so that he could fight him, and then Ali proceeded to ruin Frazier with the black community.
01:00:29.000Ali proceeded to say that he was a sellout, that he was an Uncle Tom,
01:01:38.000He's stupid and he's ugly and he's a sellout and he's an Uncle Tom and he's not a real black man.
01:01:42.000Which again is ridiculous because Ollie grew up middle class in Louisville as Cassius Clay and Frazier grew up dirt poor in Philadelphia in the ghetto.
01:01:51.000And they have this climactic fight and Frazier wants to murder him.
01:02:54.000Frazier, for the rest of his life, is crippled by this...
01:02:59.000Feeling of insecurity in the black community that he was once a hero in because of Ali.
01:03:02.000Ali's now this great hero across America.
01:03:04.000The villain becomes the hero, and the hero becomes forgotten, right?
01:03:09.000And he spends the rest of his life bitter and angry about this, to the point where they asked Frazier later in his life, you know, about those fights, and he says, you know, Ali won two of the three fights, but if you look at Ali now, who got Parkinson's and, you know, he absorbed so much punishment from Frazier, it crippled him for life.
01:03:30.000And the message on his answering machine until the day he died was, you know, he said, float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, which is Ali's thing.
01:03:37.000He said, float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, butterfly and float no more.
01:03:41.000So bitter, bitter, angry man all the way till his death.
01:03:44.000And Ali never was able to really rectify that and never could because he could never give back to Frasier what he'd taken from him in his younger days, but was hailed as a hero at the end of his life.
01:03:55.000It's sort of a story of an American tragedy, how
01:03:57.000Tribalism and racialism destroyed our ability to come together, destroyed heroes that we had in favor of people who are divisive, and then elevated those people, how the counterculture became the culture.
01:04:16.000Nathan says, in light of Trump's implosion and the left's reasserted insanity, what should sound-minded conservatives do?
01:04:21.000I've already said that one, so we'll go to Sam.
01:04:23.000Sam says, hi Ben, I'm British, I voted for Brexit because of growing corporatism across Europe, something the left sees as a result of capitalism when in fact it's antithesis.
01:04:31.000Why do you think corporatism and corruption has grown so much in America and Europe and what can be done to stop it?
01:04:36.000The reason corporatism grows is because if you are a big business, you want corporatism.
01:04:40.000You want people locked out of the market.
01:04:42.000If you're a small business, then you think the government's going to give you the benefits if you can just get to that point.
01:04:48.000And so corporatism does really well because those are the people who give donations to the politicians.
01:04:52.000Those are the people who run all the big businesses that hire everybody.
01:04:55.000Corporatism is very popular and has been really since the advent of the fascist state.
01:04:59.000Corporatism was an invention of Mussolini.
01:05:05.000The idea being that the state is a corpus, right, it's a body, and every element of the state should be like a limb of the body, and the state will organize how many industries are allowed to succeed and which industries succeed and which fail.
01:05:19.000It's become popular because the people in the industries that are helped, obviously it's popular among, and everybody else, we don't even notice that the government's doing it until we become the victims of it.
01:05:28.000So that's why it's become so popular, and always will be popular, unless you have principled people standing against it.
