In 2014, Bill de Blasio attacked the NYPD after the death of Eric Garner, who was subjected to a choke hold by the police during an arrest for selling loose cigarettes and then died of a heart attack. Days later, two NYPD officers, Wenjin Liu and Rafael Ramos, were murdered in cold blood by a black criminal named Ismael Brinsley who pledged to put "wings on pigs." When De Blasio attended the funeral for Ramos, hundreds of officers openly turned their back on him. In Dallas, officers should do the same to President Obama, who slandered them before their murders. After the Dallas massacre, Obama is still pretending that he's bewildered at the motivation for the shootings. He says, I think it's very hard to untangle the motives of the shooter. He had no such problems ascribing motivations to police officers without any evidence. And he's been doing this for years. He doesn't wait for evidence before he says they're racists. He simply talks about institutional racism, and provides no solutions. And then he postures for the cameras. And that should trouble all of us, because there are a large number of cops who feel, rightly, that because of the color of their uniform, they aren't treated the same because of their skin. And that hurts them. But that's a problem. And it's why the Black Lives Matter movement, with Democratic help, has dramatically polarized race relations in the country, and that has a real predictable effect on trust in police departments and less trust in the criminal justice system, which has a predictable effect in the system. Ben Shapiro argues that the president is not responsible for race relations, but rather for racism and institutional racism. Ben Shapiro: It's time to call out the president for his own brand of political agitprop. The president who slanders them, not the other way around. The one who makes them . the one who gives them a chance to speak for them and makes them feel good about their own racism and says they are not just black and brown, but they re not black and white because they re black and that s not black and not but white and brown in America. and that s they re black and black so they ve got it all wrong, right and and they ve got it wrong and they don t have it all.
00:00:01.000In 2014, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio ripped the NYPD after the death of Eric Garner, who was subjected to a submission hold by the police during an arrest for selling loose cigarettes and then died of a heart attack.
00:00:11.000De Blasio, if you remember, went on national TV and he said, quote,
00:00:18.000He's trained them to be very careful when they have an encounter with a police officer.
00:00:22.000He then said he told his own son, who's black, about the supposed racism of the police.
00:00:43.000That isn't actually the reality in this country, by the way.
00:00:45.000A New York Times piece today quotes a study saying that black people are significantly less likely to be shot by cops than white people in similar circumstances.
00:00:57.000Days after de Blasio made his statements, two NYPD officers, Wenjin Liu and Rafael Ramos, were murdered in cold blood by black criminal Ismael Brinsley, who pledged to put, quote, wings on pigs.
00:01:07.000When de Blasio attended the funeral for Ramos, hundreds of officers openly turned their backs on him.
00:01:12.000De Blasio wasn't responsible for the officers' deaths, but he was certainly responsible for slandering them before their murders.
00:01:18.000In Dallas, officers should do the same to Obama.
00:01:21.000Obama's supposed to stop by tomorrow and give the eulogy for five officers who were murdered last week.
00:01:26.000Obama's not responsible for the murder of Dallas police officers.
00:01:30.000But, like Bill de Blasio, he is absolutely responsible for slandering them before they were murdered.
00:01:36.000Hours before the massacre, Obama said that cop shootings in Louisiana and Minnesota, both of which were under investigation and about which Obama said he knew nothing, were, quote, not isolated incidents.
00:01:45.000They're symptomatic of a broader set of racial disparities that exist in our criminal justice system.
00:01:50.000Obama then reeled off a list of stats designed to show systemic racism against black people by cops, ignoring, of course, higher rates of criminality in the black community.
00:01:59.000He added, quote, When incidents like this occur, there's a big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as if because of the color of their skin, they're not being treated the same, and that hurts.
00:02:51.000There's a reason that the vicious, vacuous Black Lives Matter movement has taken off under Obama.
00:02:55.000He's incentivized them, he's backed them, he's supported their evidence-free argument that the criminal justice system is inherently racist.
00:03:02.000That movement, with Democrat help, has dramatically polarized race relations in the country, and that has a real predictable effect, including less trust of police in black communities and greater anger at police departments.
00:03:12.000Police have every right to be angry at President Obama, the president who slanders them.
00:03:16.000They should show it instead of allowing President Obama to use their funerals for the officers he slandered for his own brand of political agitprop.
00:03:38.000We've seen a spate of shootings and attacks on cops.
00:03:41.000In about 15 minutes, Dinesh D'Souza, who's the director and producer of Hillary's America, is gonna be stopping by.
00:03:47.000That movie comes out just before the Republican Convention, so we'll be talking with Dinesh about Hillary, about the convention, about all this stuff, and we can't wait for that.
00:03:54.000So it'll be about 10 minutes here, so stick around for that.
00:03:56.000We're doing an extra special long version of Facebook Live today, so congratulations to you.
00:04:03.000But let's start off with the situation in Dallas.
00:04:06.000So over the weekend on Friday or Thursday night, 11 cops get shot, 5 are killed by this black terrorist, essentially, who says that he's doing it in revenge for the killings of Elton Sterling in Louisiana and Philandra Castile in Minnesota.
00:04:25.000Now, we played the tapes of those on the show last week, and as we said, the evidence just wasn't out.
00:04:30.000I mean, neither case do you actually know what happened.
00:04:32.000In one case, actually in Philando Castile's case, there are new facts coming out suggesting that when the police officer pulled them over, he pulled them over not for a broken taillight, but he pulled them over rather because he thought that Philando Castile was an armed robbery suspect, actually.
00:04:46.000But, which changes the scenario because you're going to go in a little bit more geared up to get violent if things go wrong, if you're pulling over an armed robbery suspect as opposed to a broken taillight.
00:04:56.000But putting all that aside, 11 cops get shot, and President Obama, all of a sudden President Obama doesn't know why this is happening.
00:05:03.000He can't understand why any of this is happening.
00:05:05.000So, I want to start with the lead-up, because the timeline here really matters.
00:05:12.000This was last Thursday, and he says, no, you know, the shootings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, these shootings are not, they aren't isolated incidents.
00:06:03.000You know, when there's a scandal in the IRS to target all of the various conservative groups, can you name the names of the groups that were targeted?
00:06:17.000You can talk about Walter Skye, you can talk about Tamir Rice, you can talk about Alton Sterling, you can talk about Philando Castile, you can talk about Freddie Gray, right?
00:06:24.000We know all the names, even in situations where the cops didn't do anything wrong because they get blown up by the media into these massive stories.
00:06:31.000But the reality is that there is no great spate of innocent black people being shot by the cops.
00:06:39.000This New York Times study today says so.
00:06:42.000It says openly, they call it surprising, it's only surprising for people who are idiots or have a political agenda.
00:06:46.000It's not surprising at all that there's no great spate of black people being shot who are innocent by the police, just like there's no great spate of wrongfully arrested black people going to prison in the United States.
00:06:56.000Black people are going to the prison in precisely the numbers that black people are committing crimes in the United States.
00:07:02.000Crime reports, not arrests, crime reports line up directly with convictions almost.
00:07:07.000And this has been true for 30 years in this country.
00:07:20.000He says that to cops, it's a widespread systemic problem.
00:07:23.000I would argue there's a bigger problem with black people committing crimes and then getting into confrontation with cops.
00:07:28.000The fact is that if you're a cop, the average cop is 18 times more likely to be shot by a black man than a black man is likely to be shot by a cop in the United States.
00:07:37.000And President Obama doesn't care about actual statistics that matter.
00:07:40.000He just throws out statistics like they're more black people than white people in prison on a proportionate level, which is irrelevant.
00:07:46.000The question is what level of crime is being committed.
00:07:48.000But he goes out there and he says there's a systemic problem.
00:07:50.000I don't know anything about these cases.
00:07:52.000I love that when he says, I don't know anything about these particular cases, but I can tell you everybody's a racist.
00:07:56.000I don't know, but everyone's a racist.
00:08:18.000And not only are the cops wonderful people, but he can understand that, you know, he actually knows the real reason behind the shooting.
00:08:25.000And the real reason wasn't anti-white, anti-cop bigotry.
00:08:28.000No, the real reason was something else.
00:08:30.000Here's President Obama Friday morning.
00:08:32.000I also said yesterday that our police have an extraordinarily difficult job, and the vast majority of them do their job in outstanding fashion.
00:08:48.000I also indicated the degree to which we need to be supportive of those officers who do their job each and every day, protecting us and protecting our communities.
00:09:00.000Today is a wrenching reminder of the sacrifices that they make for us.
00:09:07.000Okay, so suddenly the cops are the heroes, right?
00:09:08.000The vast majority of cops are wonderful.
00:09:10.000Remember, his original statement was, the vast majority of cops are wonderful, but... And you know, one of the rules here on the Ben Shapiro Show, if you say but, everything that came before the but doesn't matter.
00:09:20.000He says, the vast majority of cops are wonderful, but...
00:09:26.000Either the vast majority are wonderful and there's no systemic problem, or there's a systemic problem and that means that you can't trust the cops, really.
00:09:33.000Because that systemic problem has to exist somewhere, unless there's some sort of subgroup of every police department.
00:09:39.000Some rogue cops in every police department who are organizing on their own.
00:09:42.000The idea is that it's a top-down problem, right?
00:09:44.000If it's a top-down problem, you can't say all the cops are great.
00:09:46.000But now all the cops are his best friends.
00:09:48.000And not only are the cops his best friends, but the real reason behind the shooting in Dallas had nothing to do with anti-cop bigotry.
00:09:56.000It didn't have to do with racial polarization, helped along by this president.
00:09:59.000In 2010, I think it was only 13% of Americans considered race relations to be a serious problem in the country.
00:10:08.000That's because of President Obama and his rhetoric.
00:10:10.000Not because anything on the ground has changed.
00:10:12.000There have been less deaths on the ground every year up to 2014 when Obama's rhetoric started to take hold, when the Ferguson movement started to take place, when Black Lives Matter came around, and crime started to rise.
00:10:23.000Crime both against cops and generally.
00:10:25.000But President Obama knows the real reason behind the Dallas shootings.
00:10:28.000The real reason is, you guessed it, gun control.
00:10:52.000When a white guy shoots up a black church in Charleston, South Carolina, that's the fault of the Confederate flag and Christian conservatives.
00:10:58.000When an Orlando jihadist shoots up a gay nightclub, that's the fault of guns and white Christian conservatives.
00:11:05.000When Gabby Giffords gets shot, that's Sarah Palin's fault, and also the fault of guns.
00:11:10.000When a Planned Parenthood is targeted in Colorado by a crazy person, that's the fault of the pro-life movement.
00:11:16.000But, it's never the fault, it's never the fault of the guy who is out there shooting at cops when you push anti-cop rhetoric.
00:11:23.000That's never the fault, and then it's the gun again.
00:11:25.000It's amazing how this works, isn't it?
00:11:27.000Just like, if there are rogue cops, if there are cops who do bad things, they're not bad apples, they're evidence of a systemic problem.
00:11:34.000But, if a guy who sympathized with Black Lives Matter goes out and shoots a bunch of people, that has nothing to do with the Black Lives Matter movement.
00:11:40.000You noticing the double standard here?
00:12:36.000Even the head of the Department of Homeland Security, Jay Johnson, even he came out and he said, it's totally premature to say anything about that shooting.
00:13:51.000Because that's all I get from these folks.
00:13:53.000Is if you don't recognize our feelings, then you're part of the problem.
00:13:55.000And we're going to talk about the whole feelings aspect of this in a minute, in a little while.
00:14:00.000Because the fact is, I think that Republicans and Democrats are now, we're all part of this feelings society, where facts don't matter at all.
00:14:06.000As you know, I don't care about feelings, hardly at all.
00:14:08.000If you're not a member of my immediate family,
00:14:10.000Really don't care about your feelings.
00:14:12.000I have very little interest in your feelings.
00:14:13.000You're not my wife, you're not my children, I don't care.
00:14:17.000You have family of your own, that's what they're for.
00:14:19.000My job is to tell you the truth regardless of what your feelings are, and I know that sounds harsh, but the problem is when you have politicians who claim that they care about your feelings, they don't care about your feelings, they're lying to you.
00:14:29.000What they're really saying is, we're going to play to your feelings so we don't have to do the things for you we're supposed to do.
00:14:34.000We don't have to change the facts on the ground.
00:14:36.000All we have to do is scream about racism and continue to maintain that the inner city should be crap for the next 50 years, as they have been for the last 50 years.
00:14:43.000All these Democrats out there screaming about racism.
00:15:04.000Hillary's America and and he is obviously the the producer director of 2016 Obama's America and and the multiple New York Times best-selling author And and Dinesh is is one of the geniuses of the movement and I think the best analyst of the Obama era So now I guess I'll be the best analyst of the Hillary era too because as you know I'm a pessimist on everything which means that I'm always right eventually And so I think that Hillary Clinton will probably be the next president which makes me want to vomit and never stop vomiting
00:15:34.000But that also means that Dinesh is going to be vital in sort of exposing what the Hillary era is all about.
00:15:41.000So Dinesh, thanks so much for coming on.
00:15:53.000Do you think that, you obviously analyzed President Obama through the perspective of his anti-colonialist, anti-imperialist background.
00:16:02.000Which is a deeply ideologically rooted background.
00:16:04.000Do you think that Hillary is an ideological animal or is she just driven for her own self-aggrandizement or both?
00:16:11.000I think that Hillary is driven by a kind of gangsterism, and by that I mean self-aggrandizement, not just in terms of money, but power and control.
00:16:20.000This is a woman who would enjoy having a kind of mob boss rule over the United States.
00:16:25.000Now, there's a gangsterism, as you know, in Obama, but it's different.
00:16:29.000I think with Obama it's a gangsterism of means.
00:16:36.000He's willing to skirt around the law, the immigration law, the Defense of Marriage Act, welfare reform, even Obamacare is selectively implemented.
00:17:12.000You know, Plutarch has an essay on flattery, and he actually talks about how you can use flattery with a tyrant to basically make him feel good about himself and temper his appetites.
00:17:22.000Look, I think that would work with Bill Clinton.
00:17:24.000If you look at Bill and Hillary, they're both gangsterish.
00:17:26.000And they've been gangsters together, sort of Bonnie and Clyde, if you will.
00:17:30.000But in this case, Bonnie, namely Bill, has a more circumscribed set of ambitions.
00:18:39.000He was a petty thief on the streets of Chicago.
00:18:41.000When he was in college, he said he figured out all these rackets for how he could eat for free and he would hold seminars on how you could eat for free.
00:18:48.000And then later, he hung out with the 42nd Street Gang and the Capone Gang.
00:18:52.000And then he says, I took all these lessons about extortion and I applied them to politics.
00:19:30.000But even that is one step short of being in the White House, when you basically have innumerable SWAT teams at your disposal.
00:19:37.000You have an unbelievable military apparatus of power that you can deploy, in this case, against your own citizens.
00:19:44.000It's almost terrifying to contemplate.
00:19:46.000So what do you think her priorities are going to be as president?
00:19:49.000I mean, we talk about personal self-aggrandizement, but she obviously has political priorities, too.
00:19:53.000I mean, there have been demagogues from the right.
00:19:56.000Presumably, she'll be a demagogue from the left.
00:19:58.000So what are her top priorities, do you think?
00:20:00.000Well, I think she's gonna, and I think Obama sees this, I mean, there was no love lost between the Clintons and Obamas, but I think Obama decided at the end of the day, you know, sort of, Hillary is my, sort of, successor godfather.
00:20:11.000If you're gonna have the godfather ceremony, it's gotta be Hillary.
00:20:26.000This is a woman who puts her head down and marches, and you have to bludgeon her to the ground and sit on her, otherwise she's going to keep going.
00:20:33.000And Obama sees that and he goes, you know, that's what I want.
00:20:36.000So I think for Obama, ideology is the goal.
00:20:40.000Hillary likes the ideology because the ideology supplies her with the power.
00:20:43.000In other words, the degree the government has control over the education industry, the healthcare industry, the energy industry, that allows Hillary to tell everybody what to do.
00:20:52.000Right, so it's a vehicle for her, basically.
00:21:12.000What I'm seeing and what I'm unfortunately going into a little bit of Nostradamus mode, what I'm seeing here is states beginning to resist the federal government and the real possibility of things getting very ugly in this country pretty quickly.
00:21:25.000I mean, we might be talking about the case for peaceful secession.
00:21:59.000Every time she beats the posse, so to speak, in this latest vindication, the FBI, she's like, I did it again!
00:22:05.000So it licenses her and it tells her, I can get away with anything.
00:22:08.000And so this is a woman now empowered and unleashed, I think, in a way that we need to take notice of.
00:22:14.000So Hillary's America is the name of the movie, and it's not just about Hillary.
00:22:17.000It's also about the Democratic Party and its rather nefarious history.
00:22:21.000So how deeply do you delve into the history of the Democratic Party?
00:22:24.000Why do you think it matters what Andrew Jackson did to what's happening 170 years later?
00:22:29.000Let's take that example because I think it's illuminating.
00:22:32.000So Andrew Jackson, now Andrew Jackson, there's a big debate about Andrew Jackson and his patriotism and so on and should he be on the $20 bill.
00:24:23.000Now, we can get this movie to conservatives.
00:24:25.000We need to get the movie to independents and the kind of people who are on the fence.
00:24:29.000But one way to help us is to go see the movie early.
00:24:32.000It's a sort of dirty secret of movies that if a movie blows it out and does fantastically opening weekend, it explodes all over the country.
00:25:02.000To me, also being on the front line is part of the way I protect myself because if the producer and narrator of Hillary's America disappears, who's the main suspect?
00:25:14.000The point is that we're opening it because the Democrats will put on this big
00:26:50.000You've got this huge sorted list of crimes.
00:26:53.000And the Democratic Party is deeply implicated in the worst horrors of American history.
00:26:57.000A story that is simply left out of our textbooks.
00:26:59.000What do you think is the through line for the Democratic Party there?
00:27:01.000Because what they would argue is, oh, we repudiated all of our racism back in the 1960s with the Civil Rights Act, and we repudiated slavery in the 1960s based on the Civil Rights Act, and we've repudiated our various totalitarian tendencies because we're so tolerant and open about everybody and everything.
00:27:17.000Do you think there's been any change in the Democratic Party?
00:27:20.000Or what unifies the ideology that undergirds all of those activities?
00:27:25.000Well, first of all, I'd say two things about that.
00:27:26.000First of all, if you look at the civil rights legislation, not just the Civil Rights Act of 64, but the Voting Rights Act of 65, the Fair Housing Bill of 68, more Republicans proportionally voted for those things than Democrats.
00:27:39.000If the Democratic Party was the only party in America, and there were no Republicans in the House or the Senate, none of those bills would have passed.
00:27:46.000The main opposition to all that civil rights legislation came from Democrats.
00:27:50.000So, those are three significant facts about the Civil Rights Bill.
00:27:54.000Now, the Democrats have, in a way, changed their racket.
00:27:57.000They haven't changed who they are, but they've changed the way they go about things.
00:28:03.000Remarkably, what they've done, and you alluded to this a little bit earlier, they have recreated the plantation.
00:28:44.000Even under slavery, if you got sick, they called a doctor.
00:28:47.000So everyone is provided for, but nobody gets ahead.
00:28:50.000It's sort of a school from which no one ever graduates.
00:28:53.000And the Democrats have it, and they have it under their control, and it works for them politically.
00:28:58.000And so, in a way, you can even find interesting similarities between the old John Calhoun, slavery is a positive good, slavery is good for the slave.
00:29:07.000And you look at the justifications now for the misery of the inner city, for which the Democrats won't take responsibility.
00:29:13.000There's a kind of beautiful way in which all of this comes together, and I think it's gonna get people thinking.
00:29:19.000There's an intellectual content to this movie that's gonna be arresting.
00:29:22.000So as we say, it's Hillary's America, it's coming out July 22nd.
00:29:24.000You should take not only your family and friends, you should try and find an independent and drag them there.
00:29:28.000And if you can find a Democrat and drag them there, first of all, don't be friends with them.
00:29:31.000But if you're going to be friends with Democrats, find a Democrat to be friends with and drag them to see Dinesh's new film.
00:29:36.000It's opening in wide release, 1,500 theaters, and I'm sure that it's going to blow out the box offices the last couple have.
00:29:41.000So, Dinesh, thanks so much for stopping by.
00:32:16.000Every problem gets thrust on the cops, and then when things go wrong, it's all the cops' fault.
00:32:20.000You overburden the cops, and you shouldn't be surprised when things go dramatically wrong, because it turns out that the cops are human beings, too.
00:32:26.000This new New York Times study that talks about the rates of violence that cops use against particular people, they're ignoring a couple of pertinent facts.
00:32:32.000One is, if you're under-policed, if you're understaffed in high-crime areas, don't you think that people are going to be more aggressive with people they suspect of having committed crimes?
00:32:44.000Spike Lee calls Chicago Chi-Rack, right?
00:32:46.000He made a whole movie called Chi-Rack about how Chicago is just like Iraq.
00:32:49.000Okay, think about the soldiers in Iraq.
00:32:51.000When they go into a town, knowing that that town has high rates of violence, that they're probably members of the enemy in that town.
00:32:57.000When we're talking about the enemy domestically, we're talking about criminals.
00:33:00.000When you know there are high rates of enemy activity in a particular area, do you think that the soldiers in those situations are going around on high alert, or are they going around just like they would in the middle of the military base?
00:33:10.000Are they on high alert or are they not?
00:33:29.000This is, the statistics that show a disproportionate amount
00:33:32.000Of kind of low-level abuse by cops against black people.
00:33:35.000The idea they're using handcuffs more often or pushing with hands more often.
00:33:39.000Isn't that more a reflection of the crime in the communities?
00:33:41.000My guess is that if you did the same study with regard to high crime areas in West Virginia, you would find that high crime areas always have more aggressive cop tactics being used.
00:33:49.000Because if you talk to cops, they'll tell you this is how they operate.
00:33:54.000They have to be more aggressive to survive and come home at the end of the day.
00:33:57.000And that doesn't mean that it's always pretty and it doesn't mean that it's always right.
00:34:00.000But it does mean that you have to have a little more sympathy for cops than assuming that they're automatons and the reason they're doing this is because they see a black face.
00:34:08.000As opposed to they're just in a high-crime area and they're reacting like most human beings would react in a high-crime area.
00:34:13.000Which, by the way, is why black officers also do the same sorts of stuff.
00:34:16.000It's not because of this wall of blue.
00:34:42.000It's just, this is the kind of pressure you put on cops, and then you're surprised when people don't want to be cops, or police, or go into dangerous areas?
00:34:51.000I want to just ask briefly about the decision to send in this bomb robot, which you said that you would make the same decision.
00:34:57.000Again, as you know, it's prompted a lot of discussion among law enforcement officials about whether or not there should be some sort of discussion nationwide about the use of this type of robot.
00:36:28.000And the amount of pressure that these cops are under is insane.
00:36:31.000Now, that hasn't stopped Republicans from jumping on the stupid bandwagon, because this is what Republicans do.
00:36:35.000Republicans think the reason they're losing is because they're seen as unfeeling.
00:36:39.000I think the reason Republicans are losing is because they're pansies.
00:36:42.000That's my general perspective, is that Republicans, it's not they look unfeeling, it's that they look manipulative and they look weak.
00:36:50.000So, Newt Gingrich and Marco Rubio both came over and they started mirroring over the weekend Black Lives Matter talking points.
00:36:56.000Here's Senator Marco Rubio, who's running for re-election in Florida now, speaking in the aftermath of both the Dallas shootings as well as the killings of Philando Castile and Elton Sterling in Louisiana.
00:37:10.000...video the death of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile and then last night we witnessed the coordinated and cowardly ambush and the assassination of five brave Dallas police officers.
00:37:21.000Those of us who are not African-American will never fully understand the experience of being black in America but we should all understand why our fellow Americans in the black community are angry at the images of an African-American man with no criminal record who was pulled over for a busted taillight
00:37:38.000Slumped in his car seat and dying while his four-year-old daughter watches from the backseat.
00:37:45.000All of us should be troubled by these images and all of us need to acknowledge that this is about more than just one or two recent incidents.
00:37:53.000Despite decades of progress on many fronts, millions of our fellow Americans feel that they are treated differently because of the color of their skin.
00:38:03.000And after seeing videos like the one this week, they are scared that the next time they get pulled over
00:38:08.000One wrong move could be the last thing they do.
00:38:12.000We also need to confront it by recognizing that our law enforcement officers are human beings who every day see and interact with the worst of our society.
00:38:22.000They deal with tragedy and violence and criminality and danger and they do it.
00:38:43.000How black Americans feel is a reality we cannot and should not ignore.
00:39:49.000And you have the capacity to determine what's good policy.
00:39:51.000But if we start breaking down into these groups, where you say, I feel discriminated against, and I say, well, I need to see evidence of the discrimination, and you say, you just don't get it because you're not black, we've now moved beyond the realm of facts, we've moved beyond the realm of evidence, into the realm of feelings.
00:40:06.000And once we've moved into the realm of feelings, and we don't talk about whether the feelings are justified or not, all feelings are justified in this view.
00:41:05.000I can try to bring her out of that bad mood because I care about her, but it doesn't mean that I've done something wrong.
00:41:11.000The implication for all these people is, if there's a wide group of Americans who feel they're being victimized by the cops, we have to act as though they're being victimized by the cops without evidence.
00:41:20.000Remember, Obama said in that early clip that we played, he didn't know what happened in these two shootings.
00:41:40.000Since Obama cited all of these racial statistics showing that there are proportionally more blacks than whites in prison, what are we supposed to do?
00:41:46.000Just pretend that blacks aren't committing more murders on a proportional level than whites?
00:41:50.00050% of all murders in the United States are committed by young black men.
00:42:10.000And how's that going to work if you can't recruit enough black cops because they're sick of being targeted as Uncle Toms if they police their own communities?
00:42:46.000Marco Rubio won't lose his job because he says your feelings are justified.
00:42:50.000He will lose his job if he says, we need more cops in the inner city community, and there are more cops in the inner city community, and all that happens is racial conflict goes up, right?
00:42:57.000You propose a solution, now it can be held responsible.
00:43:00.000Democrats know this, and that's why they propose feelings for the last 50 years in the inner city.
00:43:04.000Instead of saying, you know what'd solve this?
00:43:11.000Instead of doing that, which would actually be a testable hypothesis requiring something of their voters, instead they say, the reason you feel bad about your life is because there's a big bad guy out to get you, the cops.
00:43:39.000That's why businesses are not moving into Compton.
00:43:42.000I mean, this is one of the things that was hilarious.
00:43:44.000When they did Straight Outta Compton, which was supposed to be about black liberation, one of the ironic stories is there's not a single movie theater in Compton.
00:44:27.000And that's why you're seeing crime escalate over the last two, three years.
00:44:31.000Heather McDonnell calls it the Ferguson effect, and she's exactly right.
00:44:33.000It is the effect of Ferguson, but it's more than that.
00:44:35.000It's an uptick that President Obama has pushed that has a real consequence.
00:44:39.000So you got Gingrich and Rubio now pushing this feelings crap too, because they think it's going to get them elected.
00:44:44.000I have to give all credit to Rudy Giuliani here.
00:44:46.000Rudy Giuliani is the former mayor of New York, one of the few guys speaking truth to power on this particular subject.
00:44:52.000He obviously implemented stop-and-frisk in New York.
00:44:54.000He implemented all these theories of more policing, more policing of low-level crime, ensuring that there isn't a lawlessness that runs throughout New York City, which by the way is now returning.
00:45:07.000Here's Rudy Giuliani talking about the Black Lives Matter movement.
00:45:11.000You said that the Black Lives Matter movement has put a target on the back of police officers.
00:45:16.000When members of the African American community see videos as they have this week, they feel like there is a target on young black men.
00:45:25.000Explain your response about how they put a target on police officers, how that can match up when people see these videos.
00:45:32.000Well, when they talk about killing police officers.
00:45:38.000They sing rap songs about killing police officers, and they talk about killing police officers, and they yell it out at their rallies, and the police officers hear it.
00:45:47.000But Mr. Mayor, what you seem to be doing is taking... Please, please let me finish.
00:45:51.000And when you say black lives matter, that's inherently racist.
00:45:57.000Well I think there are... Black lives matter, white lives matter, Asian lives matter, Hispanic lives matter.
00:46:07.000Of course black lives matter and they matter greatly but when you focus in on one percent of less than one percent of the murder that's going on in America and you make it a national thing and all of you in the media make it much bigger than the
00:46:23.000A black kid who's getting killed in Chicago every 14 hours, you create a disproportion.
00:46:30.000The police understand it, and it puts a target on their back.
00:46:34.000Every cop in America will tell you that if you ask them.
00:46:38.000And that, of course, is exactly right.
00:46:54.000They were specifically targeted because they were white cops.
00:46:56.000There's no evidence that these white cops, one of them wasn't even white, one's a Latino, right?
00:47:00.000Or that they were, the one in Minnesota's a Latino guy.
00:47:02.000That they were out there, and they went out there that morning, I'm gonna kill a black guy.
00:47:06.000This guy went out there that morning and thought, I'm gonna kill some white cops.
00:47:09.000I'm gonna go out there, I'm gonna kill some white cops.
00:47:11.000And in Tennessee, and in Georgia, and in Missouri, and in St.
00:47:15.000Paul, where there were a bunch of Black Lives Matter protesters, who as I said before, were throwing cinder blocks at the cops, one of whom broke his vertebrae.
00:47:21.000Okay, so this moral equivalence is absolute nonsense.
00:47:26.000Fact and fiction are not the same thing just because you feel the same way about them.
00:47:32.000And the fact that people refuse to acknowledge this, this is why we have such a problem in the country.
00:47:37.000Giuliani continued, he says that there's obviously a concerted effort to paint our police officers as brutal and racist.
00:47:43.000Whenever one police officer is killed, it's like a shot at all of us because they're the people who protect us.
00:47:49.000They're the people who put their lives on the line every day they get dressed up and they might not come home that night and you and I get dressed up and you know they protect us and our children and our grandchildren and to lose so many of them at once in a slaughter like that has to indicate there's something seriously wrong with the way we're presenting the police in the United States.
00:48:13.000There's a concerted effort to paint our police officers as brutal and racist.
00:48:32.000The left has an agenda and the agenda must be pressed forward no matter what.
00:48:36.000I love that the leftists are trying to find somebody to blame other than themselves for these cops being shot because they know it's a bad story for them.
00:48:42.000So naturally, they're blaming Donald Trump because they're all-purpose blaming.
00:48:45.000Now, I think Donald Trump is terrible, as you know, but
00:48:48.000Donald Trump is not to blame for cops getting shot in Dallas by an anti-white, black terrorist.
00:48:54.000That has nothing to do with Donald Trump.
00:48:56.000In fact, Donald Trump's statement on the police shootings is actually pretty good.
00:48:58.000Here's what Donald Trump had to say about the police shootings.
00:49:00.000The shooting of the 12 police officers in Dallas, Texas has shaken the soul of our nation.
00:49:07.000Just a few weeks ago, I met with many of the men and women in the Dallas police force during my visit to Texas.
00:49:55.000So here is Jesse Jackson blaming Donald Trump for what happened.
00:50:00.000You have said that you think Donald Trump, at least in part, has contributed to a very divisive mood in this country.
00:50:06.000You called part of that an anti-black mood.
00:50:09.000I want to play a little bit of what he said in response to the shootings and events of the last few days and then get your reaction.
00:50:15.000A brutal attack on our police force is an attack on our country and an attack on our families.
00:50:22.000The deaths of Alton Sterling in Louisiana and Philando Castile in Minnesota also make clear how much more work we have to do to make every American feel that their safety is protected.
00:50:36.000Reverend, what do you make of his remarks?
00:50:39.000Well, those are significant remarks, but I submit to you that when you do the birther movement on the president, which is a dog whistle for kind of anti-black, the anti-Mexican, the deportation of 15 million people, of families, the disruption, anti-Muslim, that kind of rhetoric has helped to seed these clouds.
00:50:56.000I hope that Mr. Trump will maintain the level of rhetoric that we just now heard.
00:51:02.000Okay, so basically, if we had subtitles, what he would be saying is that this seeded the clouds, seeded the clouds for the sort of attacks that you saw in Dallas.
00:51:11.000But what you never see is the Democrats saying that Hillary Clinton seeds the clouds for these sort of attacks.
00:51:15.000So, for example, here's Hillary Clinton talking about, the real problem here is that white people just don't understand black people well enough.
00:51:22.000Uh, but I will certainly take a hard look about what more we can do because what I'm interested in is bringing our country together, not deepening the divides.
00:51:31.000And I want white people to understand how African Americans feel every day.
00:52:01.000And working together to try to stem the violence, the hatred, the divisive rhetoric.
00:52:09.000And yes, I'm going to do my best to try to bring that about in my campaign and then in the White House, working on specific ways to try to create, you know, more understanding.
00:52:21.000So Hillary Clinton does this routine now where white people just need to just need to look more and more closely at the experience of black people.
00:52:30.000We'll recognize, when you show us evidence of officers doing bad things, that they should go to jail, and that bad things should happen when they do bad things.
00:52:38.000And you recognize that evidence would be a good baseline standard of behavior.
00:52:54.000If you don't buy into the narrative that they're pushing forward, you're a racist.
00:52:58.000How the conversation has turned from, in the space of a week, has turned from two cases where it's unclear that the shoots were bad in the first place, to we don't know if the shoots are racist, but we're going to claim that all the cops are basically racist, to the cops getting shot, to we don't know what happened.
00:53:15.000I mean, clearly what should have happened is we should have understood black people better.
00:53:19.000It's amazing, the level of dominance by the left of the narrative is incredible and utterly incoherent and destined to get more black people killed.
00:53:26.000Because I promise you, cops are not going to join the force, they're not going to go into bad areas, they're not going to police crime, they're going to think to themselves, do I really feel like losing my career or my life or my health today based on trying to help a group of people who the media say hate me and want to kill me?
00:53:41.000And who they say I make them feel uncomfortable?
00:53:45.000And then the natural human response to that by cop, by anybody else would be, fine, screw it.
00:54:08.000Thing I like, and then a couple of things that I hate really quickly.
00:54:11.000So, this week we're going to do surprise endings.
00:54:13.000So surprise endings in movies, because hopefully there will be a surprise ending at the Republican National Convention.
00:54:17.000We don't have time to talk too much about that.
00:54:20.000We'll talk about that, I'm sure, tomorrow a little bit more, but there is a movement afoot to stop Trump at the convention.
00:54:25.000It takes 28 votes in the Rules Committee to refer out for a minority report, which would mean that now a majority of the delegates voting in favor of unbinding the delegates means that none of the primaries basically counted and we have a brand new primary at the convention.
00:54:39.000One of the people who's behind that movement told us over the weekend at the Daily Wire that they have the votes to make that happen, so it could get really, really interesting.
00:54:47.000So, and by the way, if you actually want to beat Hillary Clinton, you should be in favor of the surprise ending because he's getting killed in the polls, folks.
00:54:57.000If you haven't seen The Sting, I was shocked that Andrew Clavin did a whole week of Paul Newman films, and he missed what I think is Paul Newman's best performance, and that is in The Sting, this one best picture in 1973, maybe?
00:55:12.000And it's a really, it's a fun, terrific film.
00:55:14.000Paul Newman, Robert Redford, great movie.
00:56:39.000They're now remaking the Republican National Platform to try and mirror Trumpism, which is what I have suggested is the problem this entire time, right?
00:56:46.000Was that we were all going to move our principles in order to make room for Donald Trump.
00:56:50.000So now they're saying a couple of things.
00:56:52.000One, they're saying that we're going to say that trade deals are great, but they have to be fair trade deals that are negotiated in the smartest way, right?
00:56:58.000So they're just going to start quoting Trump's idiotic speeches now and pretend that this is actual policy.
00:57:11.000Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump recently spoke with Caitlyn Jenner, ahead of what is likely to be a contentious debate over transgender issues in the party's platform.
00:57:20.000The call between the former Olympic decathlete and the billionaire came days after Trump met with hundreds of religious conservatives, according to the New York Times.
00:57:27.000Delegates are expected to debate on Monday whether to adopt a provision defending laws that prevent transgender men and women from using the public restroom of their choice.
00:57:35.000So, we've got Donald Trump calling up Caitlyn Jenner to coordinate between the two of them how they will talk about transgender bathrooms in America.
00:57:43.000Yes, reality TV now runs our lives because we are a bunch of morons.
00:58:10.000They allowed him to lecture at Yale University where he said that riots were a good thing.
00:58:14.000He did a lecture called In Defense of Riots.
00:58:16.000So he went down to Baton Rouge, Louisiana to protest over the Alton Sterling thing and he was quickly arrested because that's what he does.
00:58:23.000He gets himself arrested and then claims he's a victim.
00:59:39.000If I decided to get up this morning and just go jogging on the side of the freeway, I'd be arrested.
00:59:43.000So DeRay gets arrested, and then he's a victim.
00:59:45.000So he goes down there specifically to get arrested, and then he can claim the cops are racist.
00:59:48.000Okay, first of all, I bet half the cops are black.
00:59:50.000Second of all, DeRay does nothing for anyone.
00:59:54.000I mean, DeRay's entire shtick is just getting famous off protesting against police brutality that in the case of Ferguson didn't exist, and in the case of Louisiana is still under dispute.
01:00:04.000This is the country that we've now made, and DeRay McKesson's a hero in it.
01:00:08.000He's consulted by the head of Twitter on every new change.
01:00:13.000Every new change on Twitter runs through DeRay McKesson.
