00:00:00.000Barack Obama tells Americans they're wasting time on fake outrage, while the Democratic Party pursues a radical equity agenda, the Biden economic program goes extreme, and Anthony Fauci is under fire for experimenting on puppies.
00:00:33.000And so when ESPN hit their entire staff with a vaccine mandate, they said basically everybody has to be vaxxed or you're going to get fired.
00:00:40.000Alison said, well, I'd rather resign than do that.
00:00:43.000And she quit to oppose the mandate, right?
00:00:45.000She actually put her money where her mouth was.
00:00:47.000We here at Daily Wire saw, as always, an opportunity.
00:00:51.000When talented people get let go by woke corporations for failing to simply abide by their ridiculous rules, that's an opportunity for us.
00:01:07.000We're not only excited to have our talent here, but we're excited to provide a place for people to land when they stand up for the right things at their woke corporations.
00:02:53.000The Glenn Youngkin-Terry McAuliffe race continued to be hot in Virginia.
00:02:57.000That thing is basically neck and neck.
00:02:59.000You always have to give the edge to the person who is in line with the state registration numbers.
00:03:05.000The state registration numbers in Virginia tilt toward blue, which means that if you're a betting man, you probably still have to bet on McAuliffe despite the fact that Youngkin is now running very, very close.
00:03:14.000But that's kind of the whole point, is this was never supposed to be close in the first place.
00:03:17.000It has gotten so close that now Terry McAuliffe has been forced to call in the reinforcements in the form of Barack Obama, who arrived in Virginia to do what he does best, sneer at enormous number of Americans.
00:03:28.000Because Barack Obama is both such a good communicator and because he is such a beloved media figure, people seem to ignore the fact that Barack Obama is a giant elitist jerk.
00:03:37.000Barack Obama spends an enormous amount of his time in politics just sneering at other human beings, just sneering at half the American people.
00:03:45.000And telling them that all of their concerns are really just a waste of time.
00:03:50.000The things that they worry about on a day-in, day-out basis, those are not the highfalutin things that Barack Obama, in his ginormous mind, worries about.
00:03:58.000He used to do this all the time as president.
00:04:00.000He would say, why do we have to embrace a false choice?
00:04:03.000It's a false choice between X and Y. When the real answer is, listen to me and do whatever I want.
00:04:09.000Well, he never went away from that shtick because it worked for him.
00:04:12.000Politicians find what works for them and then they just keep doing it.
00:04:15.000So Barack Obama was campaigning for Terry McAuliffe and he did this again, right?
00:04:18.000The idea is that if you're concerned about any of the issues in Virginia surrounding critical race theory or bathrooms in education or Loudoun County School Board covering up people being raped in the bathrooms, If you're concerned about any of that, according to Barack Obama, it's because you're kind of crazy, and it's a figment of your imagination, and you're wasting your time.
00:04:37.000Any issue that you deeply care about is a waste of time, according to Barack Obama, because it's fake outrage.
00:04:42.000Nobody's truly outraged that the Loudoun County Public Schools decided to tell the entire public that nobody had been raped in a bathroom, and then it turns out that a girl had been allegedly raped in a bathroom.
00:04:53.000Nobody is truly outraged over critical race theory, which indeed is being taught in a huge number of American public schools.
00:05:47.000And so according to the left, anything you're worried about is phony trumped up culture wars.
00:05:51.000Now, you'll notice that there is a trend here.
00:05:53.000The left does something very radical, and then the right responds to the thing that has been done that is radical.
00:05:57.000And then the left says, you're engaged in a phony trumped up culture war.
00:06:02.000So if they decide, for example, just on a very light, kind of minor level, Culturally speaking, that Superman is no longer going to say truth, justice, and the American way.
00:06:11.000He's going to say truth, justice, and a better tomorrow.
00:06:22.000When it comes to critical race theory, if it turns out that your children are being told that they bear a certain level of historic guilt because of the color of their skin, And you notice this and you say, you know what?
00:06:33.000I don't want my kids being taught that stuff.
00:06:35.000Or let's say that in your kid's school library, there is LGBTQ plus radical propaganda for small children in the library.
00:06:43.000And you say, I don't really want that at the school because you noticed it at the school.
00:06:47.000That's a phony trumped up culture war.
00:06:50.000Okay, because the idea from the left is that unity can only be achieved if you just don't notice what they are doing.
00:06:57.000If you just ignore what they're doing, then we can all be unified.
00:06:59.000Because here's the thing, the people who have pushed the culture war in this country are the people on the left.
00:07:04.000When you disturb the status quo, and when you push in radical directions culturally, and then other people notice that you're pushing in a radical direction culturally, it is not they who are being divisive by noticing, it is you who are being divisive by pushing the policy.
00:07:16.000You can see this all over American life right now.
00:07:20.000You see it with regard to mask policy.
00:07:22.000You'll have people who say, kids have to mask up forever.
00:07:25.000And then if you notice this and you get mad, they're like, it's a phony Trump-Trump culture war.
00:07:34.000If you change the status quo, and people notice you changing the status quo, and people are angry, overwhelmingly, at you changing the status quo, the problem is not them.
00:07:50.000And then when you note that they are pushing extremely radical policy, then they say it's a phony trumped up culture war.
00:07:56.000So to take a perfect example, right now we have a supply chain crisis in the United States and it's leading to higher prices.
00:08:01.000We have a blowout spending crisis that we've created over the course of the last two years, partially Explainable because of the COVID pandemic, particularly some of the financial activity last year.
00:08:14.000We've just been blowing out the spending for no particular reason other than that Joe Biden wants to fundamentally shift the way we do economics in this country.
00:08:21.000So we have a major inflationary crisis.
00:08:23.000We have millions of people who are not reentering the workforce.
00:08:25.000We have a border crisis in which we have record numbers of people who are crossing the southern border illegally.
00:08:30.000We have a complete surrender on the foreign policy front to the Taliban in Afghanistan.
00:08:34.000We have a very threatening China on the rise.
00:08:36.000Those would be the kind of serious issues that serious people talk about in the words of Barack Obama, right?
00:08:40.000Those are the serious issues that serious people talk about.
00:08:42.000So, what would you call an administration that is deploying its useless vice president to talk about the national gender strategy?
00:08:51.000Would that be serious people talking about serious topics?
00:08:53.000Now, I imagine that Barack Obama would consider this a serious person talking about a serious topic.
00:08:58.000Because that's not a phony culture war.
00:09:00.000That's a thing that requires real change.
00:09:01.000According to the left, when the left declares a culture war, they're not declaring a culture war.
00:09:05.000They're fighting back against the pillars of the institutional hierarchy that must be torn to the ground.
00:09:10.000So again, while this administration is experiencing crisis after crisis that is affecting real lives, and the polls show it, right now Americans care more than anything else about issues like bread and butter issues, inflation, job creation.
00:10:52.000Well, you know what they're talking about.
00:10:53.000What they're talking about is the fundamental principle of this foolish movement on the left, which is that every inequality in American life can be chalked up to structural inequalities, can be chalked up to the structural evils of the American system.
00:11:08.000And so in the middle of an economic crisis, In the middle of all these other crises, they're focused like a laser in on the fact that some women choose not to work in the same industries as some men.
00:11:19.000Now, realistically speaking, there are more women in college than men.
00:11:22.000There are many, many more women with graduate degrees than men.
00:11:26.000According to studies, women fresh into the workforce with the same qualifications as men are making the same amount or more than men are in most major American cities.
00:11:33.000Hey, but according to Kamala Harris, because again, this is a, we don't talk about a phony trumped up culture war.
00:11:38.000The notion that women are widely relegated to second class status in the United States is a lie, okay?
00:11:44.000It is just a stupid lie that is easily falsifiable.
00:11:48.000And Kamala Harris is put, you want to talk about a phony trumped up culture, this would be it.
00:11:52.000This is also part of what Barack Obama did back in 2012.
00:11:54.000And he declared that Mitt Romney had declared some sort of war on women.
00:11:57.000Yes, Mitt Romney, most milquetoast human being ever to be born on this planet.
00:12:00.000So what exactly is their national gender strategy?
00:12:03.000According to the White House, President Biden and Vice President Harris believe that advancing gender equity and equality is fundamental to every individual's economic security, safety, health, and ability to exercise their most basic rights.
00:12:15.000It is also essential to economic growth and development, democracy and political stability, and the security of nations across the globe.
00:12:21.000Ensuring that all people, regardless of gender, have the opportunity to realize their full potential is therefore both a moral and strategic imperative.
00:12:28.000More or less, it's a strategic imperative, right, to compete with other nations.
00:12:31.000We have to make sure that there are gender-neutral toiles at the local target.
00:13:08.000Well, maybe the reason that no country in the world has achieved, quote unquote, gender equality.
00:13:11.000Like, what do you mean by gender equality?
00:13:12.000What they mean is every outcome is the same.
00:13:14.000Maybe the reason not every outcome is the same is because men and women are different.
00:13:17.000I know, very controversial stuff here.
00:13:20.000What the statistics show, by the way, is that countries that have the widest social safety nets, like in Northern Europe, the ones that Bernie Sanders loves the most, also have the most gender discrepancy in terms of, for example, STEM jobs.
00:13:33.000It turns out that when women don't have to work STEM jobs, they don't like working STEM jobs as much.
00:14:06.000We'll get to more of this in just one second.
00:14:08.000First, if you've got a small business, you know there's nothing more valuable than your time, so stop wasting it on trips to the post office.
00:14:13.000Stamps.com makes it easy to mail and ship directly from your computer.

00:14:37.000Whether you're in an office sending invoices, or a side hustle Etsy shop, or a full-blown warehouse shipping out orders, Stamps.com will make your life easier.
00:15:13.000Okay, so according to the White House, again, very important that we have a national gender plan.
00:15:19.000They say the COVID-19 pandemic has fueled a health crisis, an economic crisis, and a caregiving crisis that have magnified the challenges that women and girls, especially women and girls of color, have long faced.
00:15:28.000Now, I just, quick note here, Men die at a higher rate than women do of COVID-19.
00:15:33.000So if we're talking about, maybe that's, is that because society is structured to advantage women?
00:15:38.000Or is it because men and women are different?
00:15:41.000It has also exacerbated, they say, a shadow pandemic of gender-based violence in the United States and around the world.
00:15:47.000These overlapping crises have underscored that for far too long, the status quo has left too many behind.
00:15:51.000I do enjoy the Biden administration preaching to us about gender-based violence after abandoning 19 million women to the Taliban.
00:15:57.000There's a certain irony to the Taliban beheading women who refuse to follow their diktats with regard to dress, while the Biden administration is like, well, you know, we really do care deeply about gender parity.
00:16:08.000This moment, says the White House, demands that we build back better.
00:16:11.000It requires that we acknowledge and address long-standing gender discrimination and the systemic barriers to full participation that have held back women and girls.
00:16:19.000Okay, what exactly are those long-standing barriers to full participation?
00:16:36.000I mean, it's just, it's all left-wing radical buzzwords.
00:16:38.000And if you notice, again, if I noticed this, if I were a politician and I campaigned on this, Barack Obama would then say, why are you paying attention to that?
00:16:46.000Why aren't you paying attention to the fundamentals, the bread and butter?
00:17:02.000Okay, but if you notice it, then you're bad.
00:17:05.000This is why so many people are enraged with the media, because they feel like the media just act as a cover strategy for these folks.
00:17:12.000These people preach radicalism, and then the media cover for them, and then when you notice it, the media say, why are you noticing that?
00:17:19.000According to the White House, the strategy adopts an intersectional approach that considers the barriers and challenges faced by those who experience intersecting and compounding forms of discrimination and bias related to gender, race, and other factors, including sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, disability, age, and socioeconomic status.
00:17:34.000This includes addressing discrimination and bias faced by Black, Latino, Indigenous, Native American people, Asian Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, and other people of color.
00:17:43.000So you have to say it all in one breath or Beetlejuice appears since it is all one giant woke term.
00:17:50.000Again, the entire underlying notion here is that if there is any discrepancy between men and women, it must be because the system is unfair and you should give full power to Joe Biden in this administration in order to correct those discrepancies.
00:18:04.000And unless you think that this is only with regard to sexual discrepancies, Kamala Harris Your gender warrior.
00:18:11.000She also makes clear that this is about racial discrepancies.
00:18:14.000Anytime there's a discrepancy in American life, anytime there's a disparity in American life, it must be discrimination.
00:18:19.000And the only way, you'll be shocked to learn this, the only way to rectify these imbalances is to give these people more power to completely take over the economic system and redistribute as they see fit.
00:18:32.000But if you're not... Now, to me, that seems like a very basic, rude issue.
00:18:35.000If the entire case that you are making for more power is that bad things happen in life, give us all the power and we will fix all the bad things.
00:18:42.000And by bad things, we mean differential consequences that stem, in many cases, from differential decision-making.
00:18:49.000Understand that in a free market capitalist system, your decisions are generally rewarded or punished based on the utility of your action.
00:18:57.000If you make a bad decision, you tend to be punished in the real world.
00:19:02.000But the entire basis of Democratic Party policy now is that if somebody does something smart and is rewarded, and then if somebody does something dumb and is not rewarded, this is in and of itself bad.
00:19:13.000This is why they like to chalk everything up to luck, right?
00:19:14.000This is the language they use with regard to wealth.
00:19:16.000There's always the more fortunate and the less fortunate.
00:19:19.000Well, I'm sorry, but Jeff Bezos isn't just quote unquote more fortunate.
00:19:22.000If you look at his life story and you looked at his childhood, you'd say that guy is not super fortunate.
00:19:27.000But he made many, many good decisions.
00:19:30.000The complete disconnecting and the overt disconnecting between positive action and positive results is a goal of many people in politics.
00:19:38.000They want to insulate you from your own decision making.
00:19:40.000And that's comfortable for a lot of people because it means that if you fail, that's not your failure, that's society's failure.
00:19:47.000So here is Kamala Harris suggesting that every injustice is linked with economic injustice.
00:19:52.000So she says racial injustice is linked with economic injustice.
00:19:56.000The notion, of course, being that if there is disparity in the wealth holdings between black and white in the United States, that is entirely due to current day discrimination.
00:20:05.000If you want to say that that is due in certain measure, that we have not yet really disclosed, that that is due in certain measure to historic injustices, that's inarguable.
00:20:16.000That's not the argument that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden are making.
00:20:18.000The argument they're making is that any disparity between black and white wealth holdings today is because the system today, today, like right now, is racist.
00:20:26.000And we have to completely redo the economic system to give them more power, to presumably redistribute along the lines of race.
00:20:34.000Racial injustice today is inextricably linked to economic injustice, to the impact of the climate crisis, to the impact of COVID-19, and to the threats to our democracy.
00:20:56.000And I believe then, knowing and seeing that, the path forward is clear.
00:21:04.000We must put people to work in good union jobs.
00:21:11.000So, like, you could completely disregard everything she said in the first part of that statement and just finish with the last part of the statement.
00:21:17.000You should therefore do this thing I want you to do.
00:21:18.000So she just throws all these buzzwords out there.
00:21:33.000Like, she's just throwing everything against the wall, and then at the very end, she's like, oh yeah, and because the world is filled with injustices and bad things, therefore, do this thing I want you to do.
00:21:42.000Hey now, this is why when Barack Obama says things like this is fake outrage.
00:21:47.000It's not fake outrage because your entire strategy is tied up in a generalized viewpoint that delivers and must deliver culture war.
00:21:55.000The culture warriors here are on the left and it is part and parcel of an ideological agenda to rejigger all of humanity.
00:22:04.000Understand there's a fundamental debate here about the nature of human beings.
00:22:09.000So on the right you have people who believe that there is such a thing as a fundamental human nature.
00:22:12.000That people are both capable of sin and people are capable of great things.
00:22:16.000And that you have a free ability As much as humanly possible to make choices within that context that drive you toward success or toward failure.
00:22:23.000You, as a human being, are given the ability to reason, you have a prefrontal cortex, and this allows you to make decisions and be held responsible by reality for those decisions.
00:22:31.000And reality tends to punish bad decisions.
00:22:32.000And then you have people who believe, very left-wing viewpoint, that human nature is entirely malleable, that reality counts for nothing, and that if you shift the systems in which we live, then that will transform humanity into something better.
00:22:45.000That is the root messianic vision of the left.
00:22:51.000He really never talks about human nature.
00:22:52.000What he does talk about is human beings as sort of widgets who are shaped by the environment in which they live.
00:22:56.000Now, there's a lot of self-contradiction there because the idea is also that people at the top levels get to reshape the systems in which we live, which means that they are free of the burdens of being widgets.
00:23:07.000But if you put that aside, the basic idea here is give Kamala Harris and company enough power and they will reshape all of the systems and thus usher in a new era for humanity in which all of the bad things will disappear.
00:23:37.000And all these little issues that we argue about on a day-by-day basis, whether it is CRT or whether it is transgender bathrooms, all these little issues are merely little blips on the surface of the underlying debate, which is very vast and very deep and really matters a lot.
00:23:52.000So, this administration continues to foster the notion that any inequality in American life is due to inequity, is due to unjustness.
00:24:01.000Remember, this guy was supposed to be milquetoast.
00:24:02.000He was supposed to be bland, Merrick Garland.
00:24:03.000When he was picked as AG, this guy was a representative of the law.
00:24:06.000Now he just targets parents who are complaining about critical race theory.
00:24:09.000Merrick Garland gave a speech the other day in which he talked about the racial inequalities in American life in terms of, for example, the wealth gap.
00:24:17.000Redlining contributed to the large racial wealth gap that exists in this country.
00:24:25.000The practice made it extremely difficult for people of color to accumulate wealth through the purchase, refinancing, or repair of their homes.
00:24:36.000That discrepancy in wealth is clearly reflected in current homeownership rates.
00:24:41.000Today, a white family is 30% more likely to own a home than a black family.
00:24:48.000This present-day gap in home ownership rates is larger than it was in 1960.
00:24:54.000Okay, perhaps the reason that the black home ownership rate is larger than it was in 1960 is not due to additional racism in the system.
00:25:01.000Maybe that is due to a giant welfare state that incentivizes bad behavior.
00:25:07.000In fact, so Glenn Lowry, who's an economist over at Brown University, he does an excellent podcast and he has conversations with other economists and he speaks very often with them about race and inequality and all of this.
00:25:20.000In my recent discussion with historian David Kaiser, he noted the vast majority of racial wealth disparities between black and white Americans occurs among the top 10% of the income distribution, while black-white disparity in the bottom 50% are very, very small.
00:25:32.000The way that you hear Merrick Garland talking, the idea is that all black people are 30% less likely than all white people to own houses.
00:25:39.000Hey, what is being suggested here by the historian David Kaiser is that if you look at people in the bottom half of the income distribution, their economic lives look very similar.
00:25:48.000It is only at the very top end where you have a wide discrepancy in terms of wealth ownership.
00:25:53.000Moreover, says David Kaiser, between 1940 and 1980, black homeownership rates rose slightly faster than white homeownership rates.
00:26:01.000Those numbers tend to deflate the narrative that redlining excluded blacks from the economic boom that followed the New Deal and World War II.
00:26:07.000It also happens to be the fact that while redlining was undoubtedly racist and had a racial component, while that is true, by the late 1960s, by the 1970s, that was illegal under federal law.
00:26:19.000So we've had two generations of that being illegal under federal law.
00:26:22.000Not only that, it turns out the vast majority of people who are living in red-line districts, as pointed out by John McWhorter in the New York Times, again, these folks are not wild conservatives.
00:26:31.000John McWhorter is a typical down-the-line Democrat when it comes to his voting habits.
00:26:36.000When it comes to red-line districts, some 85% of people who are living in red-line districts were white, which suggests that a lot of those red-line districts had a lot to do with the income of those districts, and maybe something to do with race, but it wasn't entirely due to race.
00:26:52.000According to that historian, David Kaiser, and I'm pointing this stuff out because, again, the idea is that any inequality that exists today is because the system today is bad.
00:27:01.000Even, by the way, if you believe that it was only entirely because of redlining, that would not explain what you're supposed to do today.
00:27:07.000Are you supposed to discriminate against people today in favor of discrimination in the past?
00:27:13.000According to David Kaiser, The black population was not left out of the economic gains generated by the New Deal, the Second World War, and the immediate post-war period.
00:27:21.000It gained more rapidly during that period than it has since.
00:27:23.000That tells me that progress depends a lot more on the general economic climate and the government's policy toward lower-income Americans than it does on the extent of racism, since legal racism was much worse in the earlier period than since 1980.
00:27:36.000According to Samuel Cronin writing for Quillette, the wealth gap perfectly illustrates a problem with using statistical disparities to diagnose and address social issues.
00:27:44.000An analysis by the People's Policy Project, which is a left-leaning institute, reflects just one of the problems with what Coleman Hughes has called the disparity fallacy by uncovering an element of the racial wealth gap that's gone unremarked upon in most mainstream discourse.
00:27:56.000The gap between the wealthiest 10% of the white population and the wealthiest 10% of the black population accounts for 77.5% of the total wealth gap.
00:28:04.000In other words, when you look at the average wealth gap, that is a misleading stat because basically what you're saying is that the wealthiest white Americans are a lot wealthier than the wealthiest black Americans.
00:28:14.000But when you get below the wealthiest 10%, the disparities start to disappear.
00:28:18.000Although the racial wealth gap exists to some degree across class lines, if we were to eliminate the disparity between the bottom 50% of blacks and whites in terms of wealth, a full 97% of the total gap would remain.
00:28:29.000Only 3% of the racial wealth gap is explained by the disparity between the poorer half of each population, which is the part that we're focused on when you talk about, for example, Merrick Garland saying it's much easier for a white person to get a house than for a black person to get a house.
00:28:41.000Hey, nobody is worried about whether Jeff Bezos has a bigger house than Kanye.
00:28:46.000That is not the wealth gap that we are concerned about.
00:28:47.000You're concerned, theoretically, about the wealth gap for the bottom 50%, which statistically is much, much more of a minor issue.
00:28:54.000But you have to pretend that it's a much bigger issue in order to call for world-beating change.
00:29:00.000And this is true across this administration.
00:29:02.000Again, across this administration, everything, inevitably, is about the notion that inequality and inequity are exactly the same thing.
00:29:13.000And your kids are being indoctrinated with this.
00:29:16.000So UNC Chapel Hill is now giving out mandatory woke training.
00:29:21.000According to Hot Air, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill recently held a mandatory training session for all Greek organizations on campus.
00:29:28.000Carolina Review, the campus conservative newspaper, got leaked audio from the training and also spoke to people who attended.
00:29:34.000Apparently, the person who was speaking here, whose name is Parle, started a presentation with an indigenous land recognition, after which hundreds of Greek attendees were advised they should make a habit of repeating the political catechism in their daily lives and taught how to do so.
00:29:49.000After establishing her lecture was on stolen land, Parle asked students their feelings about the system.
00:29:53.000Were they warm toward it, apathetic, or ready to dismantle it?
00:29:58.000At this point, Parle started talking about the role of identity and the social constructs which define them, a subject which introduced the presentation and remained a focal point throughout.
00:30:08.000She emphasized that identity is a primary factor in life experience, explaining that identity guides the way you navigate the world, and students were instructed to write their intersectional identities, like sex, and race, and sexual orientation, and body size, on a piece of paper.
00:30:35.000It means that every grocery store, literally almost across the nation, was built for the average white person.
00:30:42.000All you get is this living experience that I'm giving you.
00:30:48.000Okay, I'm sorry this is insanity, but this again this goes back to the idea that any disparity is some form of she literally says in this presentation Okay, this is not... Now, because I'm discussing a woke training session at UNC Chapel Hill, this is what Barack Obama would call a culture war that is fake outrage.
00:31:12.000Okay, except that it goes to the heart of left-wing ideology right now.
00:31:18.000She literally says that if you have to reach for the top shelf at a grocery store because you can't reach it, you have to ask somebody else to help, you have suffered oppression.
00:31:28.000Every single person in the room, she says, has benefited from oppression and suffered from oppression because the world was built for the average.
00:31:42.000Presumably, the height of the shelves, because it's built for the average person, should it be built for the lowest common denominator?
00:31:48.000Presumably, that means that all the shelves at the grocery store should only be about three foot five high, and you'd have to lease twice the space at the grocery store in order to fit everything.
00:31:57.000You'd have to have a much, much bigger store in order to be able to even lay out the goods.
00:32:02.000So nobody has to take the horrifying step of asking a person who works at the store or a person walking down the aisle to reach something for them.
00:32:08.000By the way, I'll just note here that actually, It creates a sort of communal comedy, the fact that people have to ask each other for help sometimes.
00:32:17.000I was at Target the other day, and there was a lady there, and she'd lost her glasses, and she couldn't read the label on the bottom of a lamp that she wanted to buy, so she asked me for help.
00:32:24.000And I read it for her, and we kind of smiled at each other, and we moved on.
00:32:28.000That wasn't a bad thing, because she wasn't oppressed.
00:32:32.000But the idea here, again, is that all structures of oppression are bad, and how are you going to dismantle them?
00:32:40.000It has ramifications for everything across all areas of American life.
00:32:44.000This is how you end up with videos from BuzzFeed about how you have six separate genders, and if society doesn't take into account six separate genders, that's because society is oppressive.
00:32:53.000When you get to the point where everybody's subjective identity is supposed to be accepted, celebrated, and built for by the society, Then you can't have a society at all because literally this stuff is subjective.
00:33:20.000Which is that there will be no objective reality to which we all answer.
00:33:25.000That will just disappear into the ether.
00:33:26.000And any objective reality is a form of oppression.
00:33:29.000It is a form of oppression if somebody doesn't accept that you call yourself a unicorn.
00:33:34.000It is a form of oppression if you have to reach for the top shelf.
00:33:37.000And it is a form of oppression if there's one group of people in the United States that is poorer than another group of people in the United States.
00:33:42.000And you don't even have to look at whether there is a disparity between how people in one group Act in the aggregate, not individually, in the aggregate.
00:33:49.000You don't have to look at the historic circumstances.
00:33:52.000And you don't have to look at whether the corrective to that might be more of a problem than the actual problem itself.
00:33:58.000In terms of gender, it manifests as just complete gobbledygook, sheer insanity.
00:34:02.000Here we go from this insane BuzzFeed video.
00:35:02.000You can have people who are empowered to fix every problem in American life and protect you from the vicissitudes of an actual real world that is going to bite back against you.
00:35:12.000See, this is the stupidity of all this.
00:35:13.000We can play this navel-gazing game where we pretend that all of these systems of reality no longer apply because we've become so wealthy and so fat.
00:35:26.000If we decide that just as a society we're going to embrace stupidity, societies that don't embrace stupidity are going to benefit and flourish in the reality that exists.
00:35:45.000Eventually they're always going to win.
00:35:47.000We'll get to the economic plans of this administration, which again are tied in very heavily to this underlying ideological remolding and reshaping of humanity in just one second.
00:35:57.000First, Let's talk about the fact that your gas prices right now are just out of control.
00:37:29.000And so she left because she still believes in freedom to choose whether you're going to inject yourself with a vaccine to prevent a disease that has a very low chance of killing you.
00:37:39.000We at Daily Wire are very much against these vaccine mandates.

00:38:48.000Leave a five-star review if you like what you hear.
00:38:50.000You're listening to the largest, fastest growing conservative podcast and radio show in the nation.
00:38:54.000Alrighty, so what is all of this wokeness and radicalism in service to?
00:39:03.000It's in service to more economic control.
00:39:06.000Now, what's amazing about the economic control that's currently being leveraged by the Biden administration is that it is resulting in bad things, like, right away.
00:39:13.000If you go back and listen to my podcast at the beginning of the year, before Biden took office, I said that Biden was going to take office, and my prediction was he was going to have a solid two years of economic growth.
00:39:20.000Like, really, really good economic growth, because all he had to do was sit there and be a tree stump.
00:39:25.000And he was actually qualified for that, right?
00:39:28.000He maybe performs basic photosynthesis functions at this point, but that's pretty much it.
00:39:33.000So all he had to do was sit there and drink Ensure through a straw and watch Matlock for two years, and the economy was going to grow because we're going to come out of the pandemic.
00:39:40.000Everybody was going to go back to work, and that was going to be that.
00:39:42.000Instead, he decided, no, no, no, we need to blow out the spending.
00:39:45.000We need to freak everybody out about COVID for no apparent reason at this point.
00:39:49.000We're just going to freak everybody out.
00:39:51.000And the predictable results have been bad.
00:39:53.000And so now you have the amazing spectacle of this administration actively talking down expectations.
00:40:00.000Actively telling you, you need to expect less.
00:40:03.000By the way, there's always a great dating strategy.
00:40:05.000On a first date, you should always tell the person you're dating to expect less.
00:40:07.000Now, politics is a constant date, right?
00:40:09.000Because no one ever really gets married in politics.
00:40:12.000At the very end, you have to decide, you know, whether you're going to vote for somebody or not.
00:40:15.000But then they have to run for re-election.
00:40:18.000So, you know, it is a bad date strategy.
00:40:19.000You go on the first date and you're like, you know what?
00:40:21.000I'm just going to tell you, I may look good right now, but you really got to have set your expectations low, like really lower those expectations.
00:40:29.000That would be a good indicator that you need to get up and run from the room.
00:40:32.000But that's exactly what this administration is now doing because their policies suck.
00:40:35.000Here is Jen Psaki saying from the perch at the White House that we need to expect less from Joe Biden on gas prices.
00:40:41.000It turns out this is their line across pretty much everything now.
00:40:44.000I think the president, as I said earlier, was quite candid last night, as the American people should express from him, expect from him and from any president.
00:40:52.000And there are limitations to what any president can do as it relates to gas prices.
00:41:48.000Your life getting materially worse is better for you spiritually.
00:41:51.000According to Daniel Fisher, assistant professor at the School of Sustainability at Arizona State University, people often assume they're adopting a lower quality of life by owning and buying less.
00:42:01.000We need to flip this narrative around, he says, and emphasize how sustainability allows you to have a better quality of life.
00:42:05.000It's not about renunciation, but choice.
00:42:08.000In a consumer society, he says, our base impulse is to desire material goods that satisfy our needs.
00:42:13.000People have fundamental needs, food, shelter, safety, and more advanced, self-actualized wants.
00:42:17.000Most people aren't aware of how to discern those motivations.
00:42:36.000Their claim is instead that you should be happy now that you can't buy like actually the Biden administration is doing you a favor by making you not be able to buy stuff for Christmas.
00:42:51.000So what exactly are the Democrats now doing with regard to policy?
00:42:55.000They're trying to blow out the spending and make it worse.
00:42:57.000If you want inflation to get worse, what you do is put more money in people's pockets without a consummate rise in the supply of goods.
00:43:05.000As Milton Friedman famously explained, inflation is anywhere and everywhere a monetary phenomenon.
00:43:11.000Putting more money in people's pockets when there are not enough goods to go around creates inflation.
00:43:16.000So Janet Yellen, who is now the Treasury Secretary, and again, I'm not upset that Janet Yellen's the Treasury Secretary.
00:43:21.000I'm upset she was ever the head of the Fed.
00:43:23.000It just demonstrates how quote-unquote nonpartisan the Fed is, that a person can shift directly from being Federal Reserve Chair to being Treasury Secretary under the succeeding administration without even a gap in policymaking.
00:43:34.000So Janet Yellen was asked by Jake Tapper why Joe Biden's throw-money-at-everybody policies won't superheat inflation.
00:43:41.000Suffice it to say, she doesn't do great with those.
00:43:43.000If the American economy is already overheating, it's spending even more money potentially pouring gas on the inflation fire.
00:43:54.000Well, the additional spending in the infrastructure package and in the Build Back Better package, both of those are spending over 10 years, not in a single year.
00:44:08.000The rescue package did involve substantial spending this year.
00:44:17.000Let's remember that a benefit of that package is that unemployment has declined to 4.8%.
00:44:29.000The idea is that without the ridiculous spending package passed on purely partisan lines earlier this year, unemployment wouldn't have declined.
00:44:36.000No, I'm pretty sure unemployment would have declined given the fact that people had gotten the vaccine and were going back to work.
00:46:04.000Because as soon as the government gets its foot in the door, it just wedges its shoulder, and soon enough, it's in your house, eating all the eggs out of your fridge.
00:46:10.000Okay, so here is Nancy Pelosi promoting a wealth tax.
00:46:15.000Now, it is not clear at all whether this is constitutional.
00:46:18.000A tax on actual unrealized gain, federally speaking, Very questionable whether this is constitutional given the fact we had to pass an amendment to even allow the income tax.
00:46:27.000But here's Nancy Pelosi now promoting the idea of a wealth tax.
00:46:55.000And you said also that it's being written right now and you're going to send it to the... This is a Senate proposal and they supposedly are writing it today.
00:47:03.000Tomorrow they would introduce it and then the Joint Tax Committee is the one that says this is how much you get from that.
00:47:12.000Okay, Janet Yellen also wants a wealth tax.
00:47:21.000Here's Janet Yellen trying to push it anyway.
00:47:24.000I think what's under consideration is a proposal that Senator Wyden and the Senate Finance Committee have been looking at that would impose a tax on unrealized capital gains.
00:47:42.000on liquid assets held by extremely wealthy individuals, billionaires.
00:47:49.000I wouldn't call that a wealth tax, but it would help get at capital gains which are an extraordinarily large part of the incomes of the wealthiest individuals.
00:48:04.000Unrealized capital gains are not a part.
00:48:07.000If you don't realize a capital gain, you're not receiving that as income.
00:48:11.000If I don't sell stock, I didn't receive the upside of the stock.
00:48:14.000Unless I also get to write off unrealized losses as tax losses.
00:48:23.000So the Democrats are now proposing that for the people who are the wealthiest in our society, as adjudicated by some sort of valuation of their stock portfolio, publicly traded, maybe not publicly traded, we really have no idea.
00:48:36.000We are now going to force them to pay taxes on unrealized gains on their stocks.
00:49:07.000First of all, you'd have to figure out exactly how the valuation is done because a huge number of quote unquote billionaires Our people are not in a publicly traded stock.
00:49:16.000And there are a lot of billionaires across the United States who own companies valuated at over a billion dollars.
00:49:24.000Or you can't take that stock and just sell it on the open market.
00:49:28.000Or if you did sell it to sort of the highest available bidder, you might undercut the price of the stock.
00:49:32.000According to the Democrats, quote, a new annual tax on billionaires' unrealized capital gains is likely to be included to help pay for the vast social policy and climate package lawmakers hope to finalize this week, according to senior Democrats, Wall Street Journal reporting.
00:49:44.000The proposal under consideration from Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden, Democrat of Oregon, would impose an annual tax on unrealized capital gains on liquid assets held by billionaires.
00:49:55.000And then you heard Yellen say that she wouldn't call that a wealth tax, but it is a wealth tax.
00:49:59.000Groups such as the National Taxpayers Union have objected to the tax on billionaires on realized capital gains, saying it would add more bureaucracy to the tax system and impose new burdens on business investors.
00:50:08.000The tax is expected to affect people with a billion dollars in assets or a hundred million dollars in income for three consecutive years, according to a person familiar with the discussions.
00:50:17.000The idea for which Biden recently expressed support after excluding it from his original campaign plans would affect a narrower group of people than the capital gains changes that have already flopped among congressional Democrats.
00:50:28.000The emerging Wyden proposal would be significantly more progressive.
00:50:30.000It would raise its money from the very, very rich, likely fewer than a thousand taxpayers instead of the merely rich.
00:50:36.000But House Democrats are questioning whether it makes sense to add a relatively untested idea at this late stage.
00:50:42.000The proposal under consideration would focus on unrealized gains and it is expected to include a one-time tax on gains to date, which means a tech company founder with $5 billion, almost all of which is unrealized gains, would be taxed more heavily than someone who just inherited $5 billion and has no unrealized gains under the tax codes.
00:51:02.000I think it's likely I'm pushing hard, said Elizabeth Warren.
00:51:05.000So just to understand this, this means that if you founded a company and your company is valuated at, say, $2 billion, They're not making clear, by the way, what percentage they're going to try and grab every year.
00:51:35.000Now, let's say that that valuation is not publicly traded stock.
00:51:40.000Let's say that your $2 billion company is actually a company that does, say, $200 million a year in business.
00:51:45.000It's got like a 10 times gross to do some sort of valuation.
00:51:49.000And let us say that you've been paying yourself a salary every year of maybe $5 million, right?
00:51:53.000You're paying yourself a nice salary, not like one of these crazy $50 million salaries, but like $5 million a year because you want your company to grow.
00:52:01.000So let's say you make $5 million a year.
00:52:04.000And your company, and you own 100% of your company, your company is worth $2 billion now.
00:52:08.000If you sell the stock, then you've realized the gain and you have to pay capital gains, right?
00:52:14.000And the reason you didn't sell the stock is because you wanted to stay in control of your company.
00:52:17.000Also, you realized that if you sold the stock, you would lower the value of your company because it would look like you wanted to get out of your own company.
00:52:23.000This actually happened to Mark Zuckerberg a few years ago.
00:52:25.000He tried to sell a billion dollars worth of his stock in Facebook and it tanked the stock because people thought that he was trying to sell out of his own company.
00:53:07.000And again, it's not going to stop here.
00:53:09.000Once they start saying they're going to tax unrealized gain, you understand that what this is going to do is lead to a radical disincentive from investment.
00:53:16.000Instead, you're going to see people find places to put their money that is not in this sort of situation.
00:53:22.000Or they're going to find tax loopholes.
00:53:24.000They're going to find ways to convey that money to a trust, for example, put their stock in a trust.
00:54:02.000We're still the best economic bet on the block.
00:54:04.000We can spend as much money as we want.
00:54:05.000So understand that when she wants a wealth tax, it is not because she cares about filling in the gap created by Democrats' budgeting proposals.
00:54:13.000She wants a wealth tax because she wants to punish people for investment.
00:54:16.000She wants a wealth tax because she would love to see all investment taxed at a higher rate for redistributive purposes.
00:54:26.000And then you have the media that is pushing this stuff like incredibly hard because they also would like to restructure work.
00:54:34.000So just in the sort of modern moral parlance of anti-capitalism in the media, the basic idea is that if you invest and you create a company that's worth $2 billion, you should be taxed on the unrealized gains from that company.
00:54:44.000But if you're a teacher who dumps out of school, you're a hero.
00:54:48.000That is the way the media treat you right now.
00:54:50.000Article in the Washington Post today, quote, why so many teachers are thinking of quitting.
00:54:55.000Seven educators on how the pandemic drove them to finally say enough is enough.
00:55:18.000Now, it may be that kids didn't get educated for over a year here because the teachers' unions decided to basically leave your kid adrift in public school.
00:55:25.000But it's the teachers who are the heroes.
00:55:26.000You have an entire left-wing infrastructure that has decided if you stay home from work, you're a hero.
00:55:31.000If you build a company, you're a villain.
00:55:36.000According to the Washington Post, teachers are dropping out at extraordinary rates.
00:55:42.000Whoever said those who can't do teach obviously never experienced the modern educational system where teachers do everything.
00:55:48.000They're more than the people who give math and science lessons.
00:55:50.000They might find themselves makeshift social workers to troubled students, surrogate parents checking if children eat, security guards breaking up fights, and funders of the most basic of classroom supplies from their own shallow pockets.
00:56:00.000Now listen, none of this is to deride what teachers do.
00:56:03.000Teachers do something quite important.
00:56:05.000But to pretend it's somehow heroic to walk away from that is insane.
00:56:09.000And yet that's exactly what this article is about.
00:56:11.000Teachers aren't the only American workers taking part in the so-called Great Resignation, which has seen many people in many industries leave their jobs since the start of the pandemic to find better pay and satisfaction.
00:56:21.000But the sheer numbers of those contemplating an exit from the classroom raises the question, what's happening and why?
00:56:27.000This Washington Post columnist says they interviewed seven public school teachers from around the country who have left their jobs since March 2020 to understand what they faced.
00:56:34.000The overarching sentiment, quote, Teaching was already too much, and with the increased stresses and demands introduced by the pandemic, they'd simply had enough.
00:56:43.000Their specific reasons for resigning vary.
00:56:45.000Fear for their health and that of their family.
00:56:47.000Again, first of all, fear of your health as a teacher is no greater than fear of your, it should be less, than fear for your health in any other endeavor in which you have to be in a room with humans.
00:56:56.000Kids have been transmitting this at not the same rates as adults.
00:56:59.000Juggling work and parenting from the literal confines of their home.
00:57:49.000Joe Manchin apparently is now warming up to the possibility of a wealth tax to pay for this huge bill.
00:57:54.000I don't know if Joe Manchin just wants to not win his Senate seat in West Virginia or what.
00:57:58.000I don't know what Joe Manchin's incentive structure here is to pass Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan.
00:58:03.000By the way, if Terry McAuliffe narrowly beats Glenn Youngkin by like a point or two, or if he loses, and then Joe Manchin votes for Build Back Better, he's a political fool.
00:58:10.000Because those states, they're right next door to each other.
00:58:13.000West Virginia is the reddest state in America.
00:58:15.000He will not have a Senate seat if he continues along these lines.
00:58:20.000Manchin apparently is also thinking about a corporate tax hike as well.
00:58:25.000According to the Associated Press, pivotal Democratic Senator Joe Manchin appears to be on board with White House proposals for new taxes on billionaires and certain corporations to help pay for President Joe Biden's scale-back social services and climate change package.
00:58:37.000They're not talking about a $1.75 trillion package.
00:58:40.000That's within a range that could still climb considerably higher, apparently.
00:58:44.000And again, remember that all the numbers they're throwing around are just a lie.
00:58:47.000The numbers that they are throwing around are false because they're using false sunsets to pretend that these programs are not going to be re-upped by Democrats.
00:58:53.000They're kicking in some programs years down the road so that they extend the 10-year timetable to 15, 20 years for some of the programs.
00:59:01.000So apparently the talk of $3.5 trillion is out the window, but apparently Manchin is now considering the possibility of this wealth tax and so is Sinema.
00:59:11.000So, as much as we would hope for the moderation of these particular characters, apparently that moderation is not going to extend to not punishing people for the great sin of creating a business.
00:59:20.000Okay, meanwhile, the other big story of the day, it is amazing.
00:59:24.000I will say America's love affair with dogs is pretty astonishing.
00:59:27.000The way that it works in the United States is that the Taliban The Taliban kill a bunch of American soldiers and behead a bunch of people and take over an entire country and Americans are like mildly upset about that or pretty upset about that.
00:59:40.000If we leave the dogs behind, that's a major issue, okay?
00:59:43.000In similar ways, so Anthony Fauci lied about gain-of-function research.
00:59:49.000He defined gain-of-function research as gain-of-function within an animal, right?
00:59:53.000Not gain-of-function meaning a bat virus is now transmissible among humans.
00:59:58.000Then there was a letter that just came out From EcoHealth Alliance admitting that the Wuhan Institute of Virology was making bat viruses transmissible to humans by testing it in mice.
01:00:09.000And so it turns out they were lying the whole time.
01:00:10.000So Anthony Fauci is out there defending himself on the charge that he lied in front of Congress.
01:00:16.000I obviously totally disagree with Senator Paul.
01:00:21.000Neither I nor Dr. Francis Collins, the director of the NIH, lied or misled about what we've done.
01:00:27.000The framework under which we have guidance about the conduct of research that we fund, the funding at the Wuhan Institute, was to be able to determine what is out there in the environment in bat viruses in China.
01:00:43.000Okay, so he's still fibbing about this.
01:00:45.000People care a lot less about this than the fact that he was experimenting on puppies.
01:00:50.000It turns out that the guy who is funding bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology for gain-of-function research And this is not to suggest that Fauci funded the creation of COVID-19 specifically because the strains of virus that were being researched under the NIH grant were different.
01:01:06.000But the guy who was funding the Wuhan Institute of Virology and Money is Fungible, the guy who's done a horrible job throughout this pandemic while trying to control all of our lives, it turns out that also he had greenlit experimentation on puppies.
01:01:20.000The writing this year is really on-the-nose.
01:01:21.000I gotta say, this year, so we're in season, what, six now of Trump?
01:01:25.000And the writing has gotten progressively worse, like most series.
01:01:28.000Once you get past season three, the writing really starts to collapse.
01:01:31.000And the writing this season has just been really on-the-nose.
01:01:34.000According to Yahoo News, Dr. Fauci is facing a demand from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to divulge information regarding the alleged use of an experimental drug on puppies.
01:01:44.000Democratic and Republican lawmakers sent a letter Friday to Joe Biden and the NIAID requesting they share information regarding the alleged infection of 44 beagle puppies with parasites in order to test an experimental drug on them, according to The Hill.
01:01:57.000The letter, written by Republican South Carolina Representative Nancy Mason and 23 other lawmakers, says, quote, We write with grave concerns about reports of costly, cruel, and unnecessary taxpayer-funded experiments on dogs commissioned by the NIAID.
01:02:11.000Apparently, cordectomies were performed on six to eight-month-old dogs.
01:02:18.000It involves splitting a dog's vocal cords in order to prevent them from barking, howling, or crying.
01:02:24.000It's opposed by the American Veterinary Medical Association and the American Animal Hospital Association.
01:02:30.000And apparently, they're requesting answers on how many drugs have been performed on dogs since the beginning of 2018.
01:02:39.000The original report is slightly more graphic.
01:02:42.000Apparently, the parasites with which they were infected were really, like, very, very unpleasant.
01:02:49.000Apparently, they're characterized as cruel puppy experiments.
01:02:53.000According to the White Coat Waste, they said, quote, our investigators show that Fauci's NIH division shipped part of $375,800 grant to a lab in Tunisia to drug beagles and lock their heads in mesh cages filled with hungry sandflies so that the insects could eat them alive. They also locked beagles alone in cages in the desert overnight for nine consecutive nights to use them as bait to attract infectious sandflies.
01:03:17.000So basically, they were reenacting the Nicolas Cage scene from Wicker Man.
01:03:24.000And like Locking the beagle's head in cages.
01:03:28.000Which is just horrifying with NIH funding.
01:03:32.000It will be kind of amazing if what brings Anthony Fauci down is that he was mean to dogs, not, you know, the 4 million dead people across the world thanks to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and also not his complete failures during the pandemic.
01:03:48.000Meanwhile, on the COVID front, I will admit that the Bond villains are now coming out of the woodwork.
01:03:53.000So the New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, who is getting all sorts of plaudits for locking down her entire country, which is basically... What is the population of New Zealand?
01:04:06.000The New Zealand population is something like 5 million.
01:04:10.000And like a couple million hobbits and some sheep.
01:04:13.000So she locked down her entire country.
01:04:16.000And she was celebrated for this because as it turns out, when you're an island with five million people, a couple million hobbits and sheep, it's a lot easier to lock down.
01:04:23.000And then she didn't vaccinate anybody.
01:04:25.000And then there was an outbreak there anyway.
01:04:26.000So now they have vaccine passports over there that they're really pushing.
01:04:29.000And she just admits straight up that she's trying to create two classes of citizens.
01:04:33.000So you basically said this is going to be like, almost like, you probably don't see it like this, the two different classes of people if you're vaccinated or if you're unvaccinated, you have all these rights if you are vaccinated. That is what it is. So yep. Yep. Yep.
01:04:50.000If you're vaccinated, you have all these rights.
01:04:51.000If you're unvaccinated, you don't have any rights.
01:04:53.000Man, when they say the quiet part out loud and they celebrate it.
01:04:56.000It just demonstrates that if you have populations that are basically willing to concede to anything the so-called experts tell them, they will do anything to you.
01:05:21.000Every time the experts are asked about why they got things wrong, they just have no good answer.
01:05:24.000Rochelle Walensky over at the CDC was asked over the weekend about the simple fact that everybody from Anthony Fauci to Rochelle Walensky to everybody else were like, we can't have stadiums full of people.
01:05:34.000And we've had stadiums full of people for months at this point.
01:05:36.000No major outbreaks at any of the stadiums.
01:05:38.000Walensky was asked about it and she still won't back off the idea that it's a really bad thing.
01:05:42.000What does it tell you that there have not been spikes in most of these communities when you have people crowded into football or baseball stadiums?
01:05:52.000We would still encourage people who are unvaccinated to wear a mask in those situations, but given that these games are outdoors, that tends to be a much safer environment.
