00:01:58.000Donald Trump has not been president for nigh on two years.
00:02:02.000And that's going to be very difficult for him to run against because, again, everything is in his lap.
00:02:06.000When you have unified control of government and things go really poorly, the American people tend to blame you.
00:02:11.000And in all of your elections, they tend to blame you anyway.
00:02:13.000So now they're going to doubly blame you.
00:02:15.000And if things have gone as crappily for Joe Biden as they have gone, which is like maybe the worst first term of any president ever elected, Well, then they're really, really going to blame you.
00:02:23.000But Joe Biden is going to go back to the well.
00:02:25.000He knows that there is only one person he has ever defeated, Donald Trump.
00:02:29.000That is the only person he has ever defeated seriously in a political way.
00:02:33.000He won Democratic primaries, but that was against an old doddering socialist like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, who is not a Native American, and Pete Buttigieg, who's Vast experience in not filling potholes in South Bend, Indiana, and also being gay presented a grave threat to Joe Biden on the campaign trail.
00:02:49.000In other words, that was not a really rough primary for Joe Biden.
00:02:52.000He was easily the most famous person in the primary.
00:02:54.000He's the former vice president for Barack Obama.
00:02:56.000He had the support of Heavy institutional influencers like Jim Clyburn in South Carolina.
00:03:03.000And so the only person who he's really defeated in an election is Donald Trump.
00:03:08.000And so that means that he is going to continue running against Donald Trump.
00:03:11.000As I say, hard to run against Donald Trump.
00:03:27.000And what he's going to try and do, he's going to try to say, everybody who opposes me is Donald Trump.
00:03:31.000And by extension, everybody who supports Donald Trump is January 6th.
00:03:35.000And everybody who's at a January 6th rally is a terrorist.
00:03:39.000And so everybody I don't like is a terrorist by the transitive property.
00:03:44.000So the problem with this, of course, is that the Make America Great Again movement under Donald Trump did earn 73 plus million votes in the last election cycle.
00:03:55.000And those are the people who are most enthused to show up to the polls again this time.
00:03:59.000All the people who oppose Joe Biden are very enthused to show up to the polls this time.
00:04:02.000And so he has to come up with some sort of new name.
00:04:05.000He can't just say MAGA because it's old and it's tired.
00:04:07.000But Joe Biden is a derivative and plagiaristic thinker.
00:04:10.000And so he can't come up with any sort of new descriptor for his enemies.
00:04:12.000So he has come up instead with a deeper signifier of MAGANESS.
00:04:25.000It's like Donald Trump, Power Ranger, Mike Pompeo, Mike Pence, Ultra Mega.
00:04:33.000So anyway, Joe Biden, bad at branding, bad at everything except for being asleep during campaigns.
00:04:39.000Very good at being asleep during campaigns.
00:04:41.000He is launching his 2022 party campaign by bringing into existence the dumbest political label I've ever heard hanged on an opposing political party.
00:05:13.000I never expected the ultra MAGA Republicans who seem to control the Republican Party now To have been able to control the Republican party.
00:05:31.000Ultra MAGA, okay, and then he continues to rant about Ultra MAGA.
00:05:37.000And he never really describes what Ultra MAGA is or what makes one Ultra MAGA.
00:05:42.000Is being Ultra MAGA, like you take injection shots of testosterone and now you weren't just MAGA before, you're Ultra MAGA, you wear like three MAGA hats, or you have a Trump t-shirt and also an FJB hat, or what?
00:05:58.000Americans have a choice right now between two paths reflecting two very different sets of values.
00:06:05.000My plan attacks inflation and grows the economy by lowering costs for working families, giving workers well-deserved raises, reducing the deficit by historic levels, and making big corporations and very wealthiest Americans pay their fair share.
00:06:23.000The other path is the ultra-MAGA plan put forward by Congressional Republicans.
00:06:30.000To raise taxes on working families, lower the income of American workers, threaten sacred programs Americans count on like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, and give break after break to big corporations and billionaires.
00:07:04.000When he's talking about raising taxes on the working class, he's referring presumably to Senator Rick Scott's plans who have everyone who pays income tax, everybody who earns an income pay at least a little bit of income tax.
00:07:16.000There's supposed to be some tax rebates involved or whatever.
00:07:17.000That has not even been embraced by a congressional majority among Republicans.
00:07:23.000He's standing in front of a poster, by the way, while he's giving this dumb speech.
00:07:25.000He's standing in front of a poster that says, tackling inflation, lowering costs.
00:07:29.000No one believes that Joe Biden is doing any of these things.
00:08:59.000Those who support a plan by Rick Scott, by Chairman Scott, that would raise taxes on 75 million Americans and get rid of, sunset, eliminate, whatever you want to call it, Medicare and Social Security, that's a MAGA position.
00:09:13.000And that includes the chairman of the Republican National Committee.
00:09:41.000Not, no one, like, holding up the giant orange specter of Trump there in the distance is not going to help you, gang.
00:09:48.000You really think that all you're going to do is revive... Honestly, if the thing that Democrats are trying to do here is everyone who opposes us loves Trump, That means a majority of Americans like Trump.
00:10:04.000Joe Biden is underwater in something like 46 out of 50 states.
00:10:07.000If everybody who opposes Joe Biden and his agenda in those states is now ultra MAGA, that means a majority of America is now ultra MAGA by their lights because they won't even label it.
00:10:17.000I mean, they're not even trying to describe what the ideology of ultra MAGA is.
00:10:21.000They're just they believe that Donald Trump is so unbelievably toxic that if you just take The slogan that he used, and you lightly brush it over the surface of American politics, and everybody goes, ooh, that's, ooh, that's terrible.
00:10:55.000You've heard the president talk about this, but it's not just obviously putting at risk a woman's right to make choices about her own health care.
00:11:03.000It is also, as you heard him talk about this morning, Rick Scott's extreme plan that will raise taxes on 75 million Americans making less than $100,000 a year.
00:11:13.000And it's also the obsession with culture wars and wars against Mickey Mouse and banning books.
00:12:18.000This is not the most expensive gas on record when adjusted for inflation.
00:12:21.000But you can't adjust for inflation because again, the inflation is part of the problem.
00:12:27.000Biden pledged to redouble his efforts yesterday, outlining his agenda, most of which is stalled in Congress and most of which is absolutely counterproductive.
00:12:34.000Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve is figuring out, hey, wait a second, you know, we may have acted too slow on inflation.
00:12:40.000Some of us were saying you were acting too slow on inflation like several years ago.
00:12:44.000According to the New York Times, however, Fed confronts why it may have acted too slowly on inflation.
00:12:49.000Some Federal Reserve officials have begun to acknowledge they were too slow to respond to rapid inflation last year.
00:12:53.000A delay that is forcing them to constrain the economy more abruptly now, and one that could hold lessons for the policy path ahead.
00:12:59.000Inflation began to accelerate last spring, but Fed policymakers and most private sector forecasters initially thought price gains would quickly fade.
00:13:06.000It became clear in early fall that fast inflation was proving to be more lasting.
00:13:09.000But the Fed pivoted toward rapidly removing policy support only in late November, and didn't raise rates until March.
00:13:15.000Several current and former Fed officials have suggested in recent days that in hindsight, the central bank should have reacted more quickly and forcefully last fall, but that both profound moral uncertainty about the future and the Fed's approach to setting policy slowed it down.
00:13:27.000In other words, they deliberately ran the economy hot because they were attempting to quote-unquote build back better.
00:13:32.000And now they have run inflation up to the point where the economy is now in danger of being run into the ground.
00:13:38.000Now, the White House is taking a little bit of comfort in the notion that today the Consumer Price Index is expected to show that inflation has already peaked.
00:13:49.000But core inflation is still going to be really, really high.
00:13:52.000So they were expecting the core inflation report to show 8.1% increase year over year, which is a massive, massive increase year over year, but it is down from something like 8.5% last month.
00:14:03.000So they're now saying that that is a decline in the rate of inflation.
00:14:07.000And maybe that will start to show that that inflation is coming down.
00:14:10.000Listen, I still think the Federal Reserve is going to be able to bring inflation down.
00:14:12.000The only question is how much pain they're going to inflict in order to do all of this.
00:14:35.000First, your home is a lot more than the place you live.
00:14:38.000It's an investment tool, especially these days, because here is the thing with inflation and with the stock market going down.
00:14:44.000You know, you need to make sure that you have the home that you want at the rate you can afford, and this is why you need American Financing.
00:14:50.000Home values right now are up almost 20%.
00:14:52.000You're able to access that equity as cash at incredibly low interest rates.
00:14:56.000This makes it easier to pay off high interest debt, fund home renovations, add to your savings account, or do whatever you need because, in fact, it is your money.
00:15:02.000Now, if that sounds like something you might be interested in, you need to call American Financing because they're going to provide a free mortgage review So you can understand options before moving forward.
00:15:10.000There's no pressure, no upfront or hidden fees.
00:16:54.000Because it turns out that your top domestic priority is ignoring the fact that your policies have created inflation.
00:17:00.000In fact, Joe Biden said yesterday his policies have been helpful toward inflation, which comes as a shock to every American who has a functioning brain.
00:17:08.000There are some Americans who don't have functioning brains, and to whom this sounds good.
00:17:11.000Here is Joe Biden, oddly clutching that binder.
00:17:13.000Again, this is such a weird physical thing that he does when he's feeling defensive.
00:17:17.000He, like, actually picks up his little portfolio and he, like, clutches it to his chest, like a kid who hasn't done his homework.
00:19:00.000Sure, he falls asleep in the middle of the first segment of Matlock, but you are the one who's distracted.
00:19:05.000Again, I'm not going to get over the physical gripping of the portfolio while he does this sort of thing, because it is so obviously a defense mechanism.
00:19:13.000At this point, it's like a physical defense mechanism.
00:19:15.000Playing poker with members of the Biden administration must be just an exercise in futility, because they all just have tells, right?
00:19:21.000Kamala Harris, every time she gets a good hand, just starts cackling crazily.
00:19:24.000And Joe Biden, every time he gets a good hand, he starts clutching his portfolio to his chest.
00:19:29.000I mean, it's just it's amazing, amazing stuff.
00:19:34.000And so it's time to blame all from mad guy.
00:19:37.000Here's the president of the United States doing that.
00:19:39.000The fact is congressional Republicans, not all of them, but the mega Republicans are counting on you to be as frustrated by the pace of progress, which they have everything.
00:19:53.000They've done everything they can to slow down that you're going to will hand power over to them.
00:20:00.000And enact so they can enact their extreme agenda.
00:20:06.000Again, Trump is not that he seems to think that this is Beetlejuice.
00:20:09.000And if you say Trump three times into the mirror, then magically Trump appears and then he can yell at him not going to work.
00:20:15.000Remember one second ago when Joe Biden said that the Republican plan is to tax people and that they think that that's going to solve inflation.
00:20:20.000Then yesterday, he said that his plan is to tax people.
00:20:27.000My plan is to lower everyday costs for hardworking Americans and lower the deficit by asking large corporations and the wealthiest Americans to not engage in price gouging and to pay their fair share in taxes.
00:20:45.000And his policy to lower inflation is to punish the people who make the products that you buy.
00:20:50.000We're going to punish the people who do the investment.
00:20:52.000We're going to punish the people who do the production.
00:20:57.000And he thinks this is going to somehow lower inflation because he is a fool.
00:21:00.000You should literally do the opposite of whatever Joe Biden thinks he is saying.
00:21:03.000And I say thinks he's saying because I think there's a real disconnect between his brain and his mouth.
00:21:07.000He can't get sentences out of his face anymore.
00:21:10.000Perhaps the funniest part of his little press conference yesterday in which he bragged that he was getting inflation under control is when he admitted that they control all the branches of government and then admitted, well, maybe we don't.
00:21:20.000He realizes halfway through the statement that it's bad for him if they control the governments.
00:22:04.000It's not because his ideas are really, really, really bad and really counterproductive.
00:22:08.000Or maybe it's because ideas are really, really bad and really counterproductive.
00:22:11.000Alrighty, so this administration believes a lot of things that are not true.
00:22:13.000Like boys can be girls, and abortion does not kill a human fetus, and maybe the Easter Bunny should control the President of the United States.
00:22:19.000And also, spending does not actually affect inflation.
00:22:36.000My sister, when she was pregnant, she had a lot of morning sickness and this meant that she would throw up a lot until we got her a relief band.
00:22:42.000Relief band is the number one FDA cleared anti-nausea wristband.
00:22:45.000It has been clinically proven to relieve and effectively prevent nausea and vomiting associated with everything from motion sickness and anxiety to migraines, hangovers, morning sickness, chemo, and much more.
00:22:58.000It travels to the part of the brain that controls nausea and it blocks the signal your brain is sending to your stomach telling you that you are sick.
00:23:10.000Do not let the fear of nausea prevent you from being present for life's important moments.
00:23:14.000Also, who wants to throw up in the car right now?
00:23:16.000You can join the over 100,000 Relief Band users with an exclusive offer just for Ben Shapiro listeners.

00:23:38.000Jen Psaki yesterday said that Joe Biden does not believe that spending affects inflation, which is a pretty astonishing statement.
00:24:21.000Meanwhile, Jennifer Granholm, the Energy Secretary, she's like, yeah, you like those gas prices?
00:24:24.000We're going to keep them there for a while because that's just how it is.
00:24:26.000Here is Jennifer Granholm, who, by the way, has openly suggested that it is time to move beyond fossil fuels while Americans are struggling to fill up the tank for work because gas is now costing in California nearly six bucks a gallon on average.
00:24:37.000And she's like, yeah, it might stay this way for a while, but after all, you can always do what Pete Buttigieg says you should do and buy an electric car for $100,000.
00:24:45.000Does your department have a projection of how high gas prices will go?
00:24:49.000We're soon entering the summer driving season.
00:24:52.000Yeah, I mean, the International, excuse me, the Energy Information Agency, it's been bumping around a little because of what's been going on with the EU.
00:25:02.000The prediction was that it would come down a bit by the end of this year, but it is going to take a while.
00:25:08.000Oh, it's going to take a while, is it?
00:25:20.000Then why is it because you've prevented domestic oil production by not greenlighting all of the various legal documents necessary to actually drill?
00:25:28.000And shutting off the sale of gas leases.
00:25:34.000So Rick Scott yesterday, the senator from Florida, he said, you know, if you really want this thing to start picking up again, perhaps Joe Biden should resign.
00:25:43.000He's incoherent, incapacitated, and confused.
00:25:45.000If Joe Biden wants to actually fix the inflation crisis he created, he should resign.
00:25:50.000Now, again, Joe Biden ain't going to take that well, but that happens to be true.
00:25:53.000And as Ronald Reagan once suggested while running against Jimmy Carter, a recession is when your neighbor loses his job, a depression is when you lose your job, a recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his job.
00:26:02.000And that happens to be true also about Joe Biden.
00:26:05.000So Joe Biden responded to Rick Scott by demonstrating full scale that he is incoherent.
00:26:13.000You called out Rick Scott a little while ago in your remarks.
00:26:16.000Earlier today, anticipating your remarks, he said, and I'm just quoting here, that the best thing, most effective thing Joe Biden can do to solve the inflation crisis he created is resign.
00:26:49.000Meanwhile, remember how the Democrats thought that the abortion issue was going to be a big winner for them?
00:26:52.000So they're going to swivel away from inflation, and they're going to swivel toward abortion?
00:26:56.000There's only one problem with this particular answer for the Democrats.
00:26:58.000Their position on abortion is wildly out of the mainstream.
00:27:02.000Their position on abortion is abortion until point of birth.
00:27:04.000Because their position on children is perverse.
00:27:06.000The Democratic Party position on children is you can abort them before they are born.
00:27:09.000Once they are born, it is society's responsibility to take care of them via government programs, but you have no responsibility to take care of them.
00:27:15.000They should be indoctrinated by public school teachers into the idea that they are racially essential.
00:27:20.000And not only can we boil them down to the race, but also that boys can be girls and girls can be boys, so that sexually authentic adults can feel better about their life choices.
00:27:31.000This is the Democratic view on children.
00:27:34.000And it turns out Americans don't like that stuff very much, that you lose elections based on this sort of stuff.
00:28:23.000Every major Democrat takes the full position that a baby should be able to be killed until its head exits the birth canal, essentially.
00:28:31.000Here's Joe Biden doing that yesterday.
00:28:32.000This is not a popular position with the American people.
00:28:34.000And whenever you see headlines suggesting that Americans are quote-unquote pro-choice, understand that what that means is that the polls show that Americans are not pro-choice in the third trimester.
00:28:42.000They are extraordinarily pro-life in the third trimester.
00:28:44.000In the second trimester, they tend to be somewhere in between.
00:28:47.000In the first trimester, they're still in favor of certain restrictions, but are not fully pro-life, right?
00:28:53.000That is what And by the way, when Americans describe themselves, it really kind of depends on what frame they are using.
00:29:01.000So you will see people describe themselves as pro-choice because they think that you should be able to abort a baby up till about 10 weeks.
00:30:25.000Roe creates a trimester process that was basically overthrown by Planned Parenthood versus Casey, which created the undue burden standard, which again was a vague, unworkable standard.
00:31:34.000If the MAGA Republicans get their way, pregnant women could lose their lives because there will be no exception for the life of a mother if there's a dangerous complication in the pregnancy.
00:31:46.000If MAGA Republicans get their way, women and their health care providers could go to prison for life.
00:32:12.000It is not a mainstream pro-life position that women who try to obtain abortions should go to jail.
00:32:17.000The idea is that the doctors, even the Texas law right now that provides civil liability, does not allow women to be sued.
00:32:24.000It allows the doctors and the providers to be sued.
00:32:28.000But Chuck Schumer is trying to get a vote on this thing.
00:32:31.000And even NBC is like, what are you doing?
00:32:34.000NBC, which is a Democratic Party press outlet, they have an article today.
00:32:38.000Chuck Todd, Mark Murray, Ben Kamisar, Bridget Bowman, and Alexander Marquez, so apparently the entire staff of NBC News.
00:32:43.000Democrats all but doomed Senate abortion vote threatens to divide the party.
00:32:47.000If it's Tuesday, West Virginia and Nebraska hold their 2022 primary contest.
00:32:51.000President Joe Biden contrasts his plan to fight inflation with that of Senator Rick Scott.
00:32:54.000But first, Senate Democrats are once again headed for a show vote, this time on abortion, that risks dividing their party, depressing their base, and looks all but certain to be defeated.
00:33:05.000NBC's Frank Thorpe and Julie Cirkin report, quote, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer officially set into motion the procedure Monday afternoon to have a key procedural vote on the Democratic bill to provide federal protections for abortion rights on Wednesday.
00:33:16.000The vote's timing is still TBD, but it's expected in the afternoon on Wednesday, it's still expected to fall short of the 60 votes needed to pass.
00:33:22.000The basic idea here is that the bill is so extreme that a bunch of Democrats aren't going to vote in favor of the bill.
00:33:31.000Because if you're in a swing state, if you're Kyrsten Sinema in Arizona, or if you're Bob Casey in Pennsylvania, if you are any senator in a swing state, if you're Joe Manchin, why would you vote for a bill that does all of the things we just discussed?
00:33:52.000So you have Senator Tina Smith, Democrat, saying this abortion vote is what accountability looks like.
00:33:56.000Listen, if you guys want to hold your entire party to account to the most radical of all abortion positions, go for it.
00:34:03.000I think it's very important that we put our Republican colleagues on record as being completely out of step with where Americans are.
00:34:11.000My Republican colleagues have been pushing for decades to overturn Roe versus Wade, and now what we have is them all sort of running for the hills and trying to change the subject.
00:34:22.000I think that's what accountability looks like in a democracy, and that's why it's so important that we have this vote.
00:34:34.000But this administration is so amazingly extreme, like truly incredibly extreme on abortion, that not only are they still encouraging people to go to justices' houses to protest this, which is illegal, they are now trotting out the Treasury Secretary to promote abortion.
00:34:51.000And this is their proposal to win in 2022?
00:34:53.000To send out your failing treasury secretary, who's presided over the possibility of a recession in a time when we should have a booming economy, to talk about the most extreme position available on abortion.
00:35:03.000Plus, send your press secretary, who works for MSNBC, in about five minutes, out there to talk about why people should violate the law.
00:35:19.000One More Wave uses surf therapy to help veterans stay active, engaged, and connected.
00:35:24.000The founder of One More Wave is a guy named Alex West.
00:35:26.000He's a retired Navy SEAL who noticed that for a lot of vets, especially people with adaptive needs, standard off-the-shelf surfboards and equipment were off the table.
00:35:33.000He created a team of surfboard artists and surf instructors to work with grant recipients to design custom equipment for their experience, level, and physical needs. From there, One More Wave connects vets to their global network of surfing volunteers who empower them to heal through surf therapy from coast to coast, which is just awesome stuff.
00:35:48.000Fresh salt air, sunshine, the exhilaration of flying down the face of a wave, it helps keep veterans coming back for more. Since 2015, One More Wave has empowered over 500 veterans to find healing and community through surf therapy by providing customized surfing equipment and community.
00:36:01.000But to keep on going, they need your support.
00:36:04.000Help fund 10 new surf therapy grants by going to 1mwave.com slash dailywire.
00:36:09.000Sign up to become a monthly sustaining donor.
00:36:12.000The average veteran grant costs 2,500 bucks.
00:37:41.000You're listening to the largest, fastest growing conservative podcast and radio show in the nation.
00:37:44.000So again, the Democrats, when it comes to abortion, they're taking the most extreme positions.
00:37:53.000So Jen Psaki yesterday, the Washington Post tried to sort of nuance her into the position where she was opposing protesting at people's houses, which is illegal.
00:38:02.000You're not allowed to try to threaten or intimidate in any way people who serve in the judicial branch.
00:38:10.000You're not allowed to stand outside their houses.
00:38:11.000This is against municipal law in the state of Virginia, for example, and in Maryland.
00:38:15.000And yet, Jen Psaki is out there explicitly saying, That she is fine and okay with people, quote-unquote, peacefully protesting outside the houses of justices.
00:38:24.000This is amazing stuff from the White House.
00:38:26.000I mean, not that amazing, considering that the Democratic Party basically fostered riots in 2020 in major American cities over the lie that America was deeply institutionally racist.
00:38:37.000And that the police were shooting black people for no reason other than the color of their skin.
00:38:41.000So I guess I shouldn't be all that shocked by this.
00:38:42.000It's still kind of shocking that some cooler headed members of the left are like, guys, we probably should be cooling it on the go outside Justice Alito's house and yell at him routine.
00:38:52.000But the White House is just ramping it up.
00:38:54.000So remember that time when it was really bad that we had the White House pressuring the legislature by sending peaceful protesters over to the Capitol?
00:39:03.000And when I say peaceful, I mean, because that was a direct quote from President Trump.
00:39:06.000He said, peacefully protest outside the Capitol to pressure the legislatures to do whatever they're going to do about the election.
00:39:13.000That was really bad because you don't want one branch pressuring another branch using the mob.
00:39:17.000Here's Jen Psaki having one branch pressure the other branch using the mob.
00:39:22.000I know that there's an outrage right now, I guess, about protests that have been peaceful to date, and we certainly continue to encourage that outside of judges' homes, and that's the president's position, but the silence is pretty deafening about all of the other intimidation that we've seen to a number of people.
00:39:41.000Amazing, amazing stuff there from Jen Psaki.
00:39:44.000Meanwhile, I think that when we appoint a Treasury Secretary, what we need most from our Treasury Secretary is not getting inflation under control.
00:40:17.000Well, it turns out that now the entire administration is dictated by the principles of abortion, abortion, abortion.
00:40:20.000So every single department is now going to promote abortion, including the Treasury Department, which is in a world, in a word, ultra crepedarian, which means talk about acting outside the scope of your normal purview.
00:40:32.000It's like having somebody from the Department of Health and Human Services comment on road conditions.
00:40:38.000Here's Janet Yellen explaining, in the darkest and most morally benighted way, that abortion is good because killing babies helps the economy.
00:40:46.000Which is really dystopian kind of stuff.
00:40:49.000You know, I can think of a lot of human rights violations that could theoretically help the economy.
00:40:53.000Why don't we just kill all the unproductive, Janet?
00:40:55.000That's not like a Nazi policy or anything.
00:40:57.000Here she is literally saying that abortion helps the economy.
00:41:01.000The killing of the unborn somehow benefits the economy is a good argument?
00:41:07.000These are the same people who are like, we are for humans.
00:41:09.000We can't let the economy dictate our policies.
00:41:13.000And then they're like, except for killing babies.
00:41:15.000If we can kill this nine-month-old fetus in the womb, if we can just, you know, Scissors in the skull, pry it open, make this thing happen.
00:41:23.000Then, I mean, that will allow for you to work more hours tomorrow.
00:41:31.000Roe v. Wade and access to reproductive health care, including abortion, helped lead to increased labor force participation.
00:41:41.000It enabled many women to finish school.
00:41:46.000That increased their earning potential.
00:41:49.000It allowed women to plan and balance their families and careers, and research also shows that it had a favorable impact on the well-being and earnings of children.
00:42:48.000Here's a disabled child, let's leave it out there on a mountaintop and everybody lives a happier life, except for the disabled child who freezes to death.
00:43:01.000I mean, truly, that is a nutty position.
00:43:03.000This is the same as the position that some people tried to make in Freakonomics, which is, well, you know, abortion did lower the crime rate.
00:43:10.000First of all, kind of racist, because the suggestion is that a disproportionate number of abortions in minority communities was going to lower the crime rate.
00:43:18.000Talk about not treating people as individuals.
00:43:39.000I've been told by the socialists among us that capitalism is just a maw that eats human flesh, that it takes human lives and turns them into instruments of economic growth.
00:43:48.000Here you are literally having people sacrificing children to Molech in order so that you can grow the economy.
00:43:53.000So that women can go back to school and get their degree in lesbian dance theory.
00:43:59.000It is something directly out of Brave New World, this kind of talk.
00:44:04.000And then Janet Yellen, you gotta love how what the left does is they take language that sounds kind of normal and then they insert like one word and it completely changes the entire nature of the argument.
00:44:16.000So everybody would say that bringing children into the world is one aspect of a happy life.
00:44:21.000She adds one word and now it becomes okay to kill children.
00:44:27.000One aspect of a satisfying life is being able to feel that you have the financial resources to raise a child, that the children you bring into the world are wanted, and that you have the ability to take care of them.
00:44:46.000That the children you bring into the world are wanted, right?
