The Ben Shapiro Show - What They Won't Tell You About Black People Killing White People

00:00:00.000 All right, well, big story of the day. 0.75

00:00:01.000 We have the media's favorite type of racial crime, a white-on-black shooting. 0.63

00:00:05.000 This is their favorite type of racial crime. 1.00

00:00:08.000 In fact, it is the only type of racial crime the media will actually report.

00:00:11.000 And it is, indeed, a horrendous crime.

00:00:13.000 I mean, this is a really, really bad situation.

00:00:16.000 It is obviously an act of evil, if what we are seeing right now is the entirety of the story.

00:00:21.000 And From the available facts, the facts are the facts.

00:00:24.000 According to the UK Daily Mail, a white homeowner has now been charged with first-degree assault for shooting a 16-year-old black boy named Ralph Yarle when he mistakenly rung his doorbell in Kansas City, Missouri.

00:00:34.000 Andrew Lester, 85, is facing two felony charges and a warrant has now been issued for his arrest, according to Clay County Prosecutor Zachary Thompson.

00:00:41.000 The prosecutor confirmed there was indeed a racial factor in the ordeal.

00:00:45.000 The kid was a teenage musical scholar who apparently has now applied to, he had applied to Yale, apparently a really good kid, and he was trying to find his younger twin brothers to pick them up.

00:00:57.000 A block away.

00:00:58.000 And he rang the wrong doorbell. 0.79

00:01:01.000 And this guy just blasted the gun through the door and shot him in the head and in the arm.

00:01:05.000 It's a horrible situation.

00:01:07.000 The prosecutor says, I can tell you there is a racial component to the case.

00:01:09.000 The bond for the suspect is set at $200,000.

00:01:13.000 If convicted, Lester would face life in prison for the assault charge and three to 15 years for armed criminal action.

00:01:19.000 Now, apparently, he pulled into the driveway of the home.

00:01:24.000 This would be the kid, Ralph Yarle.

00:01:27.000 Around 10 p.m.

00:01:27.000 on April 13th, he rang the doorbell, and he was immediately shot in the head by the homeowner.

00:01:31.000 So, the original suspicion by some online is that he actually, like, mistakenly opened the door.

00:01:36.000 Apparently, that did not happen.

00:01:37.000 He just rang the doorbell, and this crazed homeowner just shot him through the door. 0.82

00:01:42.000 Thank God, the kid survived.

00:01:43.000 He was released from the hospital after only four days.

00:01:47.000 Now, here's the part where things start to go off the rails.

00:01:50.000 The politicization of a situation like this is just disgusting. 0.71

00:01:53.000 Like, truly gross.

00:01:54.000 Because what the media and what Democrats have decided to do is turn this into a writ large narrative, right?

00:02:01.000 That this sort of stuff's happening all the time.

00:02:03.000 The life of a young black man anywhere in the United States is that he might ring on a random white doorbell and just get shot through the door, right? 0.75

00:02:10.000 This is the narrative that the media and Biden administration are going to attempt to draw.

00:02:13.000 The reason I say this is because President Biden called the Yarrell family on Monday and invited them to the White House when Ralph is well enough.

00:02:21.000 So, a young 16-year-old black man gets shot by an 84-year-old white man through the door, and the President of the United States calls up the family and says, come on over to the White House.

00:02:31.000 Now, this would beg the question.

00:02:34.000 It would require you to ask another question, which is, how often do situations like this happen? 0.74

00:02:38.000 Really, how often do white people just shoot black people How often is that sort of homicide committed?

00:02:46.000 Because the only reason the president would do this, I mean, he's not doing this for everybody. 0.90

00:02:49.000 He's not calling up every victim of a homicide attempt and inviting them to the White House.

00:02:54.000 He's only doing it when certain races fit the bill.

00:02:57.000 And again, none of this is to deny the evil that occurred here.

00:03:00.000 This guy should go to jail for the rest of his life if all the facts that I've just stated are the entirety of the facts, which again, right now they appear to be. 0.71

00:03:07.000 But that has nothing to do with the broader narrative, which is a narrative driven by the media, which is that the true victims of crime in the United States when it comes to interracial crime are black people at the hands of white people.

00:03:17.000 That's the only reason why the president of the United States would intervene in this case, as opposed to the myriad other cases where people get shot.

00:03:23.000 He never calls up a black family when the perpetrator was black.

00:03:26.000 That never happens, which is the most common type of homicide in the United States on a per capita basis. 0.91

00:03:35.000 On a raw basis, the most common type of homicide in the United States is white people being shot by other white people. 0.91

00:03:40.000 On a per capita basis, the most common type of gun homicide or homicide attempt would be black people on black people. 0.69

00:03:47.000 He never calls up any of those people. 0.98

00:03:48.000 A white person gets shot by a white person, Joe Biden does not care. 0.99

00:03:50.000 A black person gets shot by a black person, Joe Biden does not care. 0.99

00:03:53.000 A white person gets shot by a black person, as we'll discuss, Joe Biden seriously doesn't care. 0.98

00:03:56.000 He only cares when it's one type of interracial crime. 0.97

00:04:01.000 And that is why, presumably, the President of the United States is intervening.

00:04:06.000 A bunch of famous faces picked up the cause, according to the Daily Mail, with actresses Viola Davis, Jennifer Hudson, and Halle Berry calling for justice for Ralph after hundreds of protesters marched outside the home of the suspected shooter on Sunday with the victim's family to demand action.

00:04:18.000 So what actually happened is that he was immediately picked up, the suspect, and then he was released two hours after he was arrested because they have a rule in Missouri that you actually have to release the person within 24 hours if you're not going to charge them immediately.

00:04:33.000 And then they went back and they charged him, right?

00:04:35.000 This is actually normal procedure.

00:04:37.000 Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said he hopes the justice system does right by him and a GoFundMe account to help Ralph and his family raised more than 1.7 million dollars.

00:04:45.000 1.7 million dollars.

00:04:48.000 Again, the the teenager's family has now branded the incident a hate crime, which it certainly could be. Ralph's aunt, Dr. Faith Spoonmore, claimed that when the teenager fell to the floor he was shot again.

00:05:00.000 And then Miraculous managed to run next door to a neighbor for help.

00:05:03.000 She said her nephew had to knock on three doors before he was helped, and even then he was told to lie on the floor with his hands above his head.

00:05:08.000 And she's suggesting that those people who didn't let him into the house, or who were asking him to raise his hand, those people obviously also were some sort of racist, according to the family.

00:05:16.000 That seems a bridge too far for me, considering if somebody showed up heavily bleeding from the head and the arm at your doorstep, You might be a little wary of what exactly is is going on.

00:05:24.000 I mean, that's not like the craziest idea, but put that aside.

00:05:29.000 Obviously, what you're talking about right here is a is a what looks like a racial crime, what very well may be a hate crime rooted in the race of the suspect in the race of the suspect in the race of the victim.

00:05:41.000 But again, only one type of crime is covered by the media is the only thing that they care about.

00:05:46.000 What do we want?

00:05:47.000 Justice!

00:05:48.000 When do we want it?

00:05:48.000 Now!

00:05:49.000 Shut it down! 1.00

00:05:49.000 We don't get it? 1.00

00:05:50.000 We don't get it?

00:05:50.000 Shut it down!

00:05:51.000 This shooter was supposedly not going to be prosecuted, despite the fact that he then is going to be prosecuted and probably will end up in jail for the rest of his life, which won't be very long.

00:05:58.000 Presumably, he's 84 years old.

00:05:59.000 And here are some of the protesters who are angry at the release of the shooter.

00:06:02.000 What do we want?

00:06:04.000 Justice!

00:06:05.000 When do we want it?

00:06:06.000 Now!

00:06:07.000 If we don't get it, shut it down!

00:06:15.000 Making their voice heard and presence known, taking a step towards justice, up to the home where Ralph Yarle was shot twice.

00:06:23.000 OK, so again, these sorts of protests happen like preemptively.

00:06:27.000 Now, number one, I should just point out here that in criminal justice cases, you shouldn't prosecute people based on protesters.

00:06:31.000 You should prosecute them based on the crime, which is what exactly is happening here.

00:06:35.000 But the level of- I mean, this was front page of the New York Times, this was front page of the Washington Post website, this was the President of the United States calling up Ralph Yarle's family, which suggests that The reason that Joe Biden is intervening the media, because this is just the tip of the spear, right?

00:06:48.000 This is how the media, how they decide what is a local crime story versus what they decide is a national crime story is entirely rooted in what they wish the narrative to be. 0.85

00:06:56.000 And what the media and the Democratic Party wish the narrative to be is that black men in America, young black men in America are victims of white people who are attempting to murder them.

00:07:03.000 That's the reason why this is a national crime.

00:07:05.000 I'll give you an example of something that is not a national crime, according to me.

00:07:08.000 In fact, such a not national crime, you can't even relate the race of the suspects.

00:07:12.000 We'll get to that momentarily.

00:07:13.000 First, I want to talk to you about DailyWare's most trusted privacy partner and premier sponsor of this show, ExpressVPN.

00:08:25.000 All right, so I'm gonna give you an example of a story that is not a national news story, because that's the way this works.

00:08:30.000 In fact, it is labeled local crime and public safety by the Washington Post.

00:08:33.000 This is a local crime and public safety story.

00:08:36.000 So, Fairfax police are investigating the death of a woman found with a gunshot wound in her car in the parking lot of Mount Vernon Hospital.

00:08:43.000 According to the Washington Post local, and this is local, police said that on April 13th, just before 11 a.m., a community member saw an unconscious woman in the hospital parking lot on Holland Road.

00:08:52.000 Emergency responders found Brenda Ochoa-Guerrera, 33, of Alexandria in the passenger seat of her vehicle.

00:08:58.000 A preliminary examination revealed Ochoa-Guerrera had suffered a gunshot wound to the upper body, according to the cops.

00:09:03.000 Surveillance footage captured two men parking Ochoa Guerrero's vehicle a little after 1 a.m.

00:09:07.000 and leaving the area.

00:09:08.000 They were then picked up by another SUV, according to the police.

00:09:11.000 Police did not immediately disclose additional details surrounding Ochoa Guerrero's death.

00:09:14.000 Okay, so no race, but we have surveillance footage, right?

00:09:18.000 I mean, theoretically, if you're now on the lookout for the people who are the perps, you'd want to describe the perps, right?

00:09:25.000 And this would be like a pretty relevant place where you describe, for example, the ethnicity or race of the perps.

00:09:30.000 In fact, detectives then released a statement seeking the community's help, identifying the men relating to this death investigation.

00:09:39.000 And here is their description.

00:09:41.000 Through detectives' investigation and review of surveillance footage, they saw two men park Ochoa's vehicle at 1.11 a.m.

00:09:47.000 and leave the area. 0.58

00:09:47.000 The men were then picked up by another SUV and left the area. 0.58

00:09:49.000 Below are the two videos of the men who parked.

00:09:51.000 Okay, again, still no physical description of the suspect.

00:09:54.000 So here is some of the surveillance video.

00:09:58.000 And these are two men who apparently just shot Ochoa Guerrero and left her for dead in the car.

00:10:02.000 Now, you would think that maybe the race of the suspects would be relevant.

00:10:11.000 I mean, obviously one of the two is black, but we're not going to report on the race of the suspects at all.

00:10:17.000 The other one might be Hispanic, could be white, you can't really tell.

00:10:21.000 Now, wouldn't it be relevant to report the race of the suspects in this?

00:10:23.000 I mean, this woman actually died.

00:10:24.000 I mean, she's dead.

00:10:26.000 Ralph Yarrow, thank God, is alive.

00:10:28.000 This woman is actually dead. 0.99

00:10:29.000 Not even reporting the race of the suspects, though.

00:10:31.000 But this is the way the media work, right?

00:10:32.000 When a suspect is black, we do not report the race of the suspect.

00:10:37.000 This is like a thoroughgoing thing in the mainstream media.

00:10:40.000 They refuse to report the race of suspects when suspects in any crime happen to be black.

00:10:45.000 Because they're afraid that it's going to support a narrative that is racist in intent or something.

00:10:50.000 And if you actually cite fact, that facts themselves are... Now, here's the thing.

00:10:53.000 Facts themselves are not, in fact, racist.

00:10:55.000 They're not racist.

00:10:58.000 But the media only report the race of suspects when the suspects are white.

00:11:02.000 I'm going to give you another example of this.

00:11:02.000 That is just the way it works.

00:11:06.000 So, here is some tape that has gone viral now of looters ransacking an L.A.

00:11:12.000 gas station over the course of the last couple of days.

00:11:15.000 Here is some of the video from ABC 7.

00:11:18.000 A video into our newsroom shows hundreds of people crowding an ARCO near Central and Alondra.

00:11:24.000 After smashing the door, dozens of looters flooded into the store, grabbing anything they could.

00:11:30.000 L.A.

00:11:31.000 Sheriff's deputies tell us there were thousands of dollars worth of merchandise stolen and a thousand more in damages.

00:11:37.000 This as deputies deal with numerous street takeovers throughout the city.

00:11:42.000 Deputies say they couldn't intervene because of safety concerns as they were very outnumbered.

00:11:48.000 Okay, the deputies are outnumbered.

00:11:50.000 Looters ransacked these gas stations.

00:11:52.000 You'll notice no report on the race of the suspects in this particular case.

00:11:56.000 In fact, if you go to abc7.com, their report on this will not report the race of any of these suspects, even though you can see from the video this is a disproportionately black group of people who are looting the gas station.

00:12:06.000 Because you can't mention it.

00:12:07.000 It's unmentionable.

00:12:08.000 According to ABC7, sheriff's deputies in Compton have returned to their patrol duties Monday following a chaotic weekend that involved a series of street takeovers and a mob of looters that left a trail of destruction at local stores.

00:12:19.000 And law enforcement officials say they are developing partnerships and a plan to stop the increasingly common occurrence of street takeovers in Compton.

00:12:25.000 Video captured a wild scene at an ARCO gas station near Alondra Boulevard in Central Avenue early Sunday morning, where a large group was caught on video bum-rushing an ARCO gas station and stealing thousands of dollars worth of merchandise, all while the clerk on duty hid inside.

00:12:36.000 The video shows one man breaking the glass door while dozens of looters crowd behind him.

00:12:40.000 Moments later, the group was seen grabbing everything from drinks, snack, alcohol, and condoms.

00:12:45.000 Investigators said shots were fired about a block away from the store raid, though no injuries were reported.

00:12:50.000 Residents of Compton, which again is a heavily black area in Los Angeles, say the street takeovers have become a frequent problem in the area in which looting took place.

00:12:57.000 They say the scenes captured in the arc were bound to happen at some point.

00:13:00.000 This intersection, this goes down two to three nights a week.

00:13:03.000 We hear the motors running.

00:13:04.000 If you're close by, you can't breathe after they got going, said Ricky Finley, a resident of Compton.

00:13:10.000 Again, this heavily black area, but you're not supposed to report the race of suspects in these particular cases.

00:13:14.000 However, because if you do, it might lead to people to have bad thoughts.

00:13:19.000 You, the viewer of news, cannot be trusted with actual facts because it might make you a racist or something to know that suspects, in this case, are black. 0.85

00:13:28.000 Whereas precisely the opposite, if an elderly white man shoots a black kid through the door because he's a racist, that is indicative of white racism and all of its systemic evil across the United States.

00:13:40.000 And again, this is not just in Los Angeles. 0.86

00:13:42.000 And we saw this in Chicago as well over the course of the last week, and we'll get to that in just a moment.

00:13:46.000 First, you may have noticed that prices of essential goods are not coming down anytime soon.

00:13:50.000 You need to start looking at ways that you can cut costs.

00:14:48.000 Alrighty, so.

00:14:50.000 And this is not just in Los Angeles.

00:14:51.000 It's not just with regard to local crime stories where people get shot to death.

00:14:55.000 It's also in Chicago.

00:14:56.000 So as we reported yesterday, over the weekend, there was a giant ransacking in the loop of Chicago, which is the downtown, really nice storefront area.

00:15:06.000 Here is a video of one group jumping on cars and running across traffic in Chicago.

00:15:10.000 Again, this sort of characterized Chicago over the weekend.

00:15:13.000 You see this group of young people.

00:15:22.000 Bye!

00:15:23.000 Bye!

00:15:24.000 And as you can see, the race of young people, disproportionately a black crowd here.

00:15:30.000 Don't report the race, ever, is the rule.

00:15:32.000 If the race does not match what the narrative ought to be.

00:15:36.000 Okay, or how about Walmart being looted in Chicago?

00:15:39.000 And Walmart's like, Walmart's are being shut down in Chicago because of the looting problems in Chicago.

00:15:45.000 And then you have inner city leaders who are going out and saying things like, ah, how dare these corporations shut down?

00:15:50.000 But this is, here's a Chicago woman, presumably of color, crying while documenting this Walmart being looted.

00:15:59.000 Every grocery store looks like this.

00:16:04.000 Everything is either on the floor... Look at this.

00:16:10.000 The celery's still fully stocked. 0.74

00:16:11.000 Can't even get no f***ing food for my kids, G. Look at this. 0.95

00:16:16.000 Came in the store to try to buy something. 0.91

00:16:18.000 I'm not a thief.

00:16:21.000 Look at this.

00:16:23.000 In my hood, can't even get no food for my kids.

00:16:27.000 Okay, but the media won't cover this.

00:16:29.000 I mean, they won't.

00:16:30.000 If they do cover it, they'll talk about systematic poverty or some such nonsense.

00:16:35.000 Okay, meanwhile, here's an actual interracial crime story.

00:16:38.000 Okay, so, here's a video that emerged over the course of the last couple of days.

00:16:43.000 It's a white woman getting the actual hell beat out of her by a black crowd. 1.00

00:16:47.000 That is what is happening here. 0.86

00:16:49.000 Somebody posted this on their Instagram page, I believe, or on YouTube, and said, yay, we get active.

00:16:55.000 This is what it means to get active, apparently, in Chicago, is for a black crowd to beat the living hell out of a young white woman is what this looks like here. 1.00

00:17:01.000 That is a young white woman trying to get into a building. 1.00

00:17:09.000 And now they're just gonna beat the living s*** out of her. 1.00

00:17:11.000 Truly evil behavior here, obviously. 0.97

00:17:19.000 And look at that guy's sweatshirt.

00:17:20.000 Anti-social, social club.

00:17:21.000 Like, people are coming to do this sort of stuff.

00:17:23.000 Like, people are gathering.

00:17:24.000 They are coordinating with one another to do these sorts of things.

00:17:29.000 And so what does our political class do?

00:17:30.000 Well, I mean, if it's a black crowd doing this to a white woman, we don't even know the name of that white woman. 0.58

00:17:33.000 We don't know what happened to her.

00:17:34.000 I mean, from that video, I would assume that she was gravely injured. 0.97

00:17:38.000 That is a crowd of predominantly young black men beating the living hell out of a white lady. 1.00

00:17:43.000 And no one cares in the media. 0.98

00:17:44.000 No one cares enough to actually pursue who is that woman? 0.99

00:17:46.000 What actually happened to her?

00:17:49.000 Is she in the hospital?

00:17:50.000 Did she do anything?

00:17:51.000 What exactly is it?

00:17:52.000 No one cares.

00:17:53.000 Is Joe Biden going to call her family?

00:17:54.000 I don't think so.

00:17:55.000 Joe Biden doesn't know her name.

00:17:56.000 Joe Biden doesn't care about her name.

00:17:57.000 Joe Biden doesn't care about any of that, because the narrative doesn't match.

00:18:02.000 This has nothing to do with the evil that was done to Ralph Yarrow.

00:18:05.000 That isn't evil. 0.84

00:18:06.000 What this has to do with is the massive narrative double standard that the media create, in which we are all supposed to believe that the true threat to racial peace in the United States is white people who are preying on black people. 0.91

00:18:18.000 That's the lie. 0.56

00:18:19.000 It's not true.

00:18:21.000 And meanwhile, stories like this, the only way to preserve that narrative, because statistically it's not true, is to simply ignore stuff like this.

00:18:27.000 You have Lori Lightfoot, the current outgoing mayor of Chicago, saying, it's wrong to call this, I don't know, does it look like mayhem to you?

00:18:32.000 Does it look like mayhem to me?

00:18:34.000 Lightfoot says there's lots of opportunity to redirect young people to safe spaces, but scoffed at one reporter describing what happened as, quote, mayhem.

00:18:44.000 And here's the thing.

00:18:45.000 The vast majority of the young people that came downtown, came downtown because it was a great weather and an opportunity to enjoy the city.

00:18:53.000 That's absolutely entirely appropriate.

00:18:55.000 There are a few that came with different intentions, and they have and they will be dealt with.

00:19:01.000 But I'm not going to use your language, which I think is wrong, to say that it's mayhem.

00:19:07.000 It was wrong to say that it's mayhem. 0.97

00:19:09.000 They're out there to enjoy the weather, while they're beating the living hell out of a white woman, and trashing cars, and burning them, and looting things. 1.00

00:19:16.000 Yes. 0.99

00:19:17.000 Well done.

00:19:18.000 Now, would Lori Lightfoot have similar feelings if the races were reversed here? 0.99

00:19:21.000 Of course not.

00:19:22.000 Imagine a white crowd beating the living hell out of a black woman like that. 1.00

00:19:26.000 Not only would that be front page news, it would be front page news for months. 0.98

00:19:29.000 And this Ralph Yarle case is going to be front page news for the next several weeks, minimum.

00:19:33.000 Because it's going to be treated as indicative of the experience of young black men in the United States.

00:19:39.000 In a second, I actually want to go through the statistics here, because we're going to talk about interracial crime. 0.92

00:19:43.000 Now, the vast majority of crime in the United States is intraracial, meaning white on white crime, black on black crime, Hispanic on Hispanic crime. 0.79

00:19:50.000 The only group for which that is not true in the United States, ethnically speaking, is Asians.

00:19:53.000 For Asians, the majority of crime committed against Asians is by people of other races.

00:19:57.000 But for everybody else, it's intraracial crime. 0.97

00:20:00.000 However, we're going to get into interracial crime in just one second. 0.97

00:20:03.000 First, the economy is under a lot of stress right now.

00:20:57.000 G-E-N-U-C-E-L.com. 0.96

00:21:01.000 Okay, so let's go through some of the stats here, because again, the media narrative here, the media from Joe Biden, the media from everyone, today and for the next couple of weeks, and forever probably, is going to be that black men live under constant threat, right?

00:21:16.000 This was the George Floyd Black Lives Matter narrative. 0.71

00:21:19.000 Black men are living under constant threat because on rare occasions, people like Ralph Yarle are shot through the door by a possibly demented 84-year-old racist.

00:21:30.000 Right, that's the narrative. 0.98

00:21:33.000 Because black people in America, they are under the thumb of the system, and the system is reflected in shootings like that one. 1.00

00:21:37.000 So now let's talk about actual crime statistics in the United States. 0.98

00:21:40.000 All the stuff you're not supposed to talk about, ever supposed to talk about.

00:21:43.000 The reality is, as I've said, intraracial crime represents the vast majority of crime in the United States, violent crime in the United States. 0.94

00:21:51.000 Interracial crime is disproportionately black on white, not white on black. 0.59

00:21:56.000 Wildly disproportionately black on white, not white on black.

00:22:00.000 So let's look at the race and ethnicity of violent crime offenders and arrestees 2018.

00:22:04.000 This is the DOJ reporting this quote.

00:22:07.000 Relative to their share of the U.S.

00:22:08.000 population, 60% white people were underrepresented among offenders in non-fatal violent crimes overall, 52%.

00:22:14.000 They accounted for 45% of offenders involved in aggravated assault and 31% of offenders involved in robbery.

00:22:20.000 They were not underrepresented to a statistically significant degree among offenders involved in rape or sexual assault or simple assault.

00:22:27.000 Black people were overrepresented among offenders in non-fatal violent crimes overall.

00:22:32.000 29% of all non-fatal violent crimes were committed by Black people relative to their share of the U.S. 0.97

00:22:36.000 population, which is 13%.

00:22:39.000 Half of all offenders involved in robbery, 51%, a majority of offenders involved in robbery, were represented by 13% of the population.

00:22:47.000 A third involved in aggravated assault, 34%.

00:22:49.000 More than a fifth involved in simple assault. 0.95

00:22:52.000 And more than a fifth involved in rape or sexual assault were Black. 0.95

00:22:56.000 Okay, so most of that crime, again, is occurring. 0.92

00:22:58.000 It's not interracial crime.

00:22:59.000 That's just general crime statistics.

00:23:02.000 Black Americans are overrepresented in the crime stats, both among the victims and among the perpetrators. 0.98

00:23:07.000 Because black-on-black crime, again, represents the vast majority of crimes against black people. 0.87

00:23:13.000 Now, let's get to the actual statistics on interracial homicide.

00:23:17.000 Okay, we'll use interracial homicide as an example because these are examples that we're looking at attempted homicides.

00:23:22.000 Okay, so here is the interracial homicide as a percentage of homicides by the victim's race.

00:23:29.000 Okay, so this is a chart from US News and World Report from 2001 to 2015.

00:23:34.000 What you'll see is it's absolutely consistent.

00:23:37.000 These are just straight lines.

00:23:38.000 These are absolutely flat lines.

00:23:40.000 So, white victims killed by blacks, as a percentage of white people killed overall, that represents something like 15 to 17 percent.

00:23:52.000 Every year, from 2001 to 2015.

00:23:53.000 Somewhere between 15 and 17 percent seems about right.

00:23:57.000 And then, if you look at the black victims killed by whites, that represents about half that number, in terms of the actual percentage.

00:24:05.000 So, for example, we'll take 2019.

00:24:06.000 2019 is a perfect example of this.

00:24:08.000 And again, this is a perfectly consistent stat.

00:24:09.000 This is year over year, every year. 0.94

00:24:11.000 Every year, about twice the percentage of whites are killed by blacks as a percentage of white people generally, as blacks are killed by whites as a percentage of black people generally.

00:24:23.000 Okay, which means that when you adjust for population size, black-on-white homicide is significantly more of a problem than white-on-black homicide.

00:24:33.000 According to the FBI statistics, 3,299 white Americans were murdered in 2019. 0.67

00:24:36.000 79% of those, 2,594 of them, were killed by white perps. 0.97

00:24:37.000 566 of them, 17%, were killed by black perpetrators. 0.98

00:24:39.000 of those, 2,594 of them were killed by white perps. 566 of them, 17% were killed by black perpetrators. So again, that means that 17% of white Americans who were murdered in 2019 were killed by black perpetrators according to the FBI. Now let's look at black Americans. 0.98

00:24:56.000 For Black Americans, 2,906 Black Americans were murdered in 2019. 0.98

00:25:02.000 2,574 of them, 89%, were killed by Black perpetrators. 0.60

00:25:07.000 8%, 246, were killed by White perpetrators. 0.97

00:25:10.000 So 17% of White Americans who were murdered in 2019 were murdered by Blacks. 0.96

00:25:15.000 8% of Blacks who were murdered in 2019 were killed by Whites. 0.78

00:25:18.000 So on a raw level, a White American was about twice as likely to be killed by a Black American as vice versa.

00:25:25.000 Okay, but we also have to take into account the percentages of the population at work here.

00:25:29.000 So there are about 235 million white Americans.

00:25:31.000 There are about 47 million black Americans, which means that one out of every million white Americans killed a black person in the year 2019.

00:25:39.000 By contrast, 12 out of every million black Americans killed a white person in 2019. 0.97

00:25:45.000 So again, this is not to suggest that there's like a huge threat of black people killing white people. 0.53

00:25:50.000 Again, the vast majority, but you're talking about very small numbers compared to the overall population. 0.95

00:25:56.000 Nor is this to suggest anything inherent about race.

00:25:59.000 What this is to suggest is the entire media narrative that is going to be drawn now, as always, when a white person kills a black person, is that black people are in... Like, this was literally the lie of Black Lives Matter. 0.94

00:26:08.000 That black people were being killed in overwhelming numbers by white people. 0.90

00:26:12.000 And it is not true. 0.98

00:26:14.000 It is not true.

00:26:15.000 On a statistical level, it is more likely that if a white person is killed, they were killed by a black person, than if a black person was killed, they were killed by a white person by a factor of about two.

00:26:25.000 And again, that's not even adjusting for population size.

00:26:29.000 When you're talking about overall violent crime, interracial violent crime, like black on white or white on black. 0.58

00:26:33.000 So overall, this is a stat from the Bureau of Justice Statistics.

00:26:36.000 It is a governmental stat at the national level from 2019.

00:26:39.000 There weren't in 2019, 562,550 violent interracial black and white incidents.

00:26:41.000 562,550 violent interracial black and white incidents.

00:26:46.000 Of those 562,550 incidents between black people and white people, violence interactions, 472,570 of them, 84% were black people attacking white people.

00:26:57.000 And in terms of general crime, I mean, this is, the real problem here is that again, when you refuse to pay attention to the actual race of the perpetrators, when the perpetrators happen to be black, what you end up doing is harming black victims because the vast majority of people who are hurt by black perpetrators But the media don't care about those people. 0.98

00:27:16.000 The media don't give a crap that Walmart is getting looted and people can't feed their kids. 0.99

00:27:18.000 They don't care about black people getting shot in Alabama by other black people. 1.00

00:27:21.000 They don't care about any of that. 0.99

00:27:22.000 It doesn't fulfill their broader narrative, which is white people have to have control in order to fix all the problems. 0.68

00:27:26.000 The Robin DiAngelo white supremacy narrative. 0.95

00:27:30.000 That black people are responsible for the ills of American society and white people must have the power to fix that. 1.00

00:27:37.000 But let's be real about this. 0.99

00:27:38.000 If you want to stop crime that harms disproportionately Black people in the United States, perhaps you should actually look at the fact that a disproportionate amount of crime in the United States is committed by young Black men.

00:27:47.000 According to a study printed in the journal Science Advances, quote, lifetime risk of imprisonment for black males rose from more than one in five in 1986, 20% to nearly one in two in 2004, before falling to roughly one in six, 16% of black males, in other words, have a lifetime risk of being imprisoned in 2016.

00:28:05.000 It's still higher recorded than ever for white males.

00:28:10.000 Bye.

00:28:12.000 So this would lead to some questions systemically about how cities are being run, about the incentive structure for keeping fathers in homes, about disciplinary structures, because it turns out that the number one factor, the number one correlative factor when it comes to high levels of crime in a community are missing fathers.

00:28:27.000 When there are no father figures to enforce the rules, when there's no one there to enforce the rules, what you end up with is lawlessness.

00:28:33.000 And when there are no cops there because of Black Lives Matter or the Ferguson Rides, when that sort of stuff happens, crime gets way, way, way worse. 0.52

00:28:40.000 And this is precisely, by the way, what has happened in New York City.

00:28:43.000 Again, the vast majority of crime in the United States, at least street crime, is committed by a small number of people who are doing crimes over and over and over and then being released onto the streets.

00:28:52.000 Even the New York Times has to admit this.

00:28:54.000 According to the New York Times, this is just a couple of days ago, quote, a tiny number of shoplifters commit thousands of New York City thefts.

00:29:03.000 Nearly one third of all shoplifting arrests in New York City last year involved 327 people total.

00:29:09.000 Collectively, they were arrested and re-arrested more than 6,000 times, according to police commissioner Keachan Sewell.

00:29:16.000 Some engage in shoplifting as a trade.

00:29:18.000 I'm looking forward to the media now.

00:29:19.000 They've already decided that prostitution is sex work. 1.00

00:29:21.000 So I'm looking forward to shoplifting being reclassified as theft work.

00:29:26.000 That's going to be good.

00:29:27.000 Others are driven by addiction or mental illness.

00:29:28.000 The police did not identify the 327 people in the analysis.

00:29:32.000 But again, one of the reasons that you've seen major cities refuse to crack down on crime is because they wish to perpetuate a narrative, which is that the only reason that minorities are being arrested at disproportionate rates is because of racism.

00:29:43.000 As opposed to the real reason, which is that some minorities in America are committing crimes at a disproportionate rate.

00:29:49.000 Because some minorities in America have very high rates of single motherhood, have very low rates of educational performance.

00:29:55.000 All of these are fixable cultural problems, but the media don't want to fix those problems because the media have decided that they have narratives in each of these areas.

00:30:01.000 Alternative family structures are a solution.

00:30:03.000 A single mom can do just as great a job as a mom and a dad. 1.00

00:30:07.000 This is part of the media's narrative, too.

00:30:09.000 The problem is that in order to uphold that narrative, they have to ignore this other narrative.

00:30:13.000 And then they have to thrust that on to generalized white supremacy as an emblem of which is the is the killing or the attempted killing of Ralph Yarle.

00:30:23.000 All of it is just lies on top of lies to avoid the actual problem here. 0.96

00:30:28.000 And it's gross. 0.97

00:30:29.000 And the people, it predominantly hurts, by the way, again, black people, as always, as always. 1.00

00:30:34.000 And just a second, we'll get to the Biden administration deciding that they don't care about women, which you already know. 0.98

00:30:38.000 We'll get to that momentarily.

00:30:39.000 First, if you own a business, the past few years have been a bumpy ride.

00:30:41.000 You could probably use a break.

00:30:43.000 Innovation refunds can help.

00:31:09.000 They don't get paid until your business gets its refund.

00:31:11.000 And if you overpaid your taxes, why not get some of that money back?

00:31:13.000 I mean, the fact is the government's been taking so much of your money.

00:31:16.000 They've been shutting down your business during COVID and putting additional restrictions on you.

00:31:19.000 If you paid too much in your tax, why not get that money back right now?

00:31:35.000 Go check them out right now.

00:31:37.000 Also, when leftists tell you that America is systematically racist, or systemically racist, they're lying.

00:31:43.000 All the evidence actually points to the contrary.

00:31:45.000 Every attempt to fix this non-existent problem in the name of equity is making the country worse, is what we've been talking about.

00:31:49.000 While Heather MacDonald is shutting down that malignant ideology of anti-racism in her brand new book, When Race Trumps Merit, how the pursuit of equity sacrifices excellence, destroys beauty, and threatens lives.

00:31:59.000 Heather McDonald's When Race Trumps Merit exposes how the BLM-fueled equity obsession is destroying Western civilization or tearing down the meritocracy. 0.79

00:32:06.000 Because meritocratic standards have a disparate impact on certain minorities.

00:32:10.000 We no longer enforce a lot of criminal laws because doing so has a quote-unquote disparate impact on minority criminals.

00:32:14.000 But lowering standards, as Heather explains, jeopardizes scientific progress, destroys public order, and poisons the appreciation of both art and culture when race trumps merit.

00:32:22.000 It's a great book.

00:32:23.000 It's eye-opening.

00:32:24.000 The truth always is, Heather is unafraid to break taboos about academic achievement and crime. 1.00

00:32:28.000 She provides the data and the life stories that show the damage being done to this country in real time, all in the name of equity.

00:32:32.000 The book is a must-read for anybody who's concerned about the present state of the country and worried for our future when Race Trump's Merit is available on Amazon or wherever books are sold.

00:32:41.000 Heather will be on the show a little bit later on today.

00:32:44.000 Okay, meanwhile, the Biden White House, they continue to oppose the rights of women to compete against other women and not against men.

00:32:51.000 Which presumably is why the administration released yesterday a statement against H.R.

00:32:58.000 So H.R.

00:32:59.000 734 says that girls should compete against girls and boys should compete against boys.

00:33:03.000 The White House says no!

00:33:05.000 This is bad.

00:33:05.000 No.

00:33:06.000 It's bad.

00:33:07.000 Boys should be able to compete against girls.

00:33:08.000 Quote, For students nationwide, participating in sports and being part of a team is an important part of growing up, staying engaged in school, and learning leadership and life skills.

00:33:16.000 H.R.

00:33:17.000 734 would deny access to sports for many families by establishing an absolute ban on transgender students, even those as young as elementary schoolers playing on a team consistent with their gender identity.

00:33:25.000 Well, I have a question.

00:33:26.000 How does it deny access to sports?

00:33:28.000 It just says that if you're a girl and you think you're a boy, you should compete with the girls.

00:33:28.000 It doesn't.

00:33:31.000 You can still be on a girl's team. 0.99

00:33:33.000 What's the problem?

00:33:34.000 Schools, coaches, and athletic associations around the country are already working with families to develop participation rules that are fair and that take into account particular sports grade levels and levels of competition.

00:33:43.000 This White House has bought full into the lie that boys can be girls, girls can be boys, and that it is deeply important that kids be taught this.

00:33:51.000 And this has now been imbibed by the plurality of the Democratic Party.

00:33:55.000 There's a poll from YouGov from the last week, and here's what it shows.

00:33:58.000 Here's the question.

00:33:59.000 Who should be allowed to attend drag shows? 1.00

00:34:02.000 Now, normal human beings might say you have to be an adult to attend, you know, a sexualized man prancing around in women's garments and twerking.

00:34:09.000 Perhaps you should be an adult to attend that.

00:34:10.000 Like that's, by the way, that happens to be the position of 52% of people who are independent, politically independent.

00:34:18.000 Another 9% of those people say they should be banned altogether, like no drag shows at all.

00:34:22.000 It said be 61% of independents say Either they should be restricted to people who are over 18, or they should be banned.

00:34:30.000 Among Democrats, 39% say they should be available to everyone.

00:34:36.000 Drag shows should be available to everyone, regardless of age. 0.99

00:34:38.000 You should bring your 2-year-old to a drag show. 1.00

00:34:40.000 Say, almost 4 in 10 Democrats.

00:34:42.000 Accompanied, by the way, by 53% of gay, lesbian, and bisexual people.

00:34:47.000 And among Republicans, obviously, as you would imagine, only 8% of Republicans say that these should be allowed for everyone.

00:34:54.000 I have no idea who the 8% of Republicans are.

00:34:56.000 58% say that they should be restricted to people who are above the age of 18.

00:35:01.000 It's 6 in 10.

00:35:03.000 But the fact that 4 in 10 Democrats think that it's fine for like a two-year-old to go to a drag show is insane to me.

00:35:10.000 But these are the people that the Democratic Party is now serving.

00:35:12.000 That is their chief constituency.

00:35:15.000 And so this means that they have to fight back on every front.

00:35:17.000 And this is particularly true on the cultural front.

00:35:20.000 I mean, it's true from the top to the bottom of pop culture.

00:35:24.000 So Bill Gates, for example, and now comes out is funding millions of dollars to an NGO claiming that kids are born sexual and that 10 year olds should learn about commercial sex work.

00:35:34.000 According to Fox News, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donates millions of dollars annually to a non-governmental organization called the International Planned Parenthood Federation, which, of course, is related to Planned Parenthood.

00:35:43.000 It's a separate entity from the U.S.

00:35:45.000 nonprofit, but it wields significant influence on global sex education.

00:35:48.000 They have 120 independent organizations in over 146 countries, and they've received $80 million from Gates.

00:35:54.000 World Health Organization also gives money to them.

00:35:57.000 A toolkit released in 2017 showed an insight into how the NGO teaches sex ed to kids around the globe.

00:36:02.000 Quote, sexual activity may be part of different types of relationships, including dating, marriage, or commercial sex work, among others.

00:36:09.000 This is what apparently kids under 10 should be taught.

00:36:13.000 Children under 10 should also be told, quote, as you grow up, you might start to be interested in people with diverse gender identities.

00:36:18.000 The IPFF, the IPPF rather, suggested in multiple instances that children are born sexual.

00:36:24.000 Quote, children under 10 should be taught that sexuality is a part of you from the moment you are born.

00:36:27.000 Your sexuality develops and changes throughout your life. 1.00

00:36:29.000 By the way, this is just, I'm sorry, that's such stupid garbage. 1.00

00:36:32.000 Sexuality, like have you met a baby? 1.00

00:36:34.000 Like meet a baby.

00:36:35.000 Are those particularly sexual beings to you? 0.99

00:36:37.000 If so, then you should go to jail. 0.99

00:36:38.000 There's something wrong with you.

00:36:40.000 But again, this is now penetrated to the last vestiges of our pop culture.

00:36:45.000 Presumably this is why SNL is now featuring- I don't know when SNL decided they were going to be like the less funny version of MSNBC, but this is what they do now.

00:36:55.000 So apparently there's a person on SNL, Saturday Night Live, named Molly Kearney.

00:36:59.000 Molly Kearney is doing a really bad Chris Farley cosplay here, and is quote-unquote non-binary, by which we mean that Molly Kearns is a woman. 1.00

00:37:09.000 That's what non-binary means.

00:37:10.000 It doesn't exist.

00:37:11.000 So Molly Kearney is going to lecture you on Saturday Night Live about trans kids.

00:37:17.000 They say, oh, the hilarity.

00:37:18.000 Oh, the hilarity.

00:37:18.000 So she has now entered the Hannah Gadsby versus Samantha Bee sweepstakes of comedy death.

00:37:23.000 Here we go.

00:37:25.000 Introducing SNL's first non-binary cast member, it's Molly Kearney!

00:37:34.000 Woo! 0.99

00:37:36.000 Woo! 0.99

00:37:38.000 Ha ha! Made it!

00:37:39.000 Thank you, Mr. Chang!

00:37:41.000 There are now over 14 states that have passed bills restricting health care for trans kids.

00:37:47.000 Listen to that, Michael.

00:37:48.000 Restricting health care for kids.

00:37:48.000 Yeah.

00:37:51.000 For some reason, there's something about the word trans that makes people forget the word kids. 0.99

00:37:56.000 If you don't care about trans kids' lives, it means you don't care about frickin' kids' lives. 0.99

00:38:02.000 Wow. 0.98

00:38:04.000 So much funny, man.

00:38:05.000 Wow.

00:38:06.000 Wow.

00:38:07.000 So much hilarity.

00:38:08.000 I am!

00:38:09.000 And also, my legs are going numb and I might pass out!

00:38:13.000 Okay, so, uh, the original Chris Farley was funnier.

00:38:19.000 And also when they used to write funny lines for people.

00:38:21.000 But this is the entire culture. 1.00

00:38:22.000 The entire culture is now pushing the idea, of course, that boys can be girls, girls can become boys, and that if you oppose this agenda, then this means that you are stupid and transphobic. 1.00

00:38:29.000 This is what stupid person Sonny Haasen had to say on Repository of Stupidity The View. 1.00

00:38:34.000 They also are making this out to be a trans... This is a transphobic issue, right? 1.00

00:38:41.000 We know that this country is highly transphobic.

00:38:44.000 And it's unbelievable to me that this still goes on.

00:38:48.000 Let's say that many of the transphobic people get the attention.

00:38:51.000 I doubt that the country's as transphobic as... I hope the country is not as transphobic as it appears to be, but trans rights are under attack all over the place.

00:39:00.000 Now, this is, and people are saying, this is an American beer.

00:39:04.000 This is a Belgian company, okay?

00:39:07.000 Like, it's not even like... Which explains the problem!

00:39:10.000 Anheuser-Busch!

00:39:11.000 Anheuser-Busch is a Belgian company that doesn't only sell Bud Light, but sells, like, beer in, like, 130 countries and stuff, and, like, all over the world.

00:39:21.000 And all kinds of beers. 0.98

00:39:22.000 So that's why it's so dumb to me. 1.00

00:39:26.000 It's so dumb to you. 0.99

00:39:27.000 I mean, if something is dumb to Sunny Hostin, we can immediately assume it's one of the most brilliant things that's ever been done because she is one of the dumber people on planet Earth is Sunny Hostin. 1.00

00:39:34.000 But again, this is the idea that if you oppose a major mainstream American brand trying to trans the culture, then this means that you are dumb in some way. 0.98

00:39:42.000 Also, there's nothing to worry about, guys. 0.54

00:39:44.000 There's nothing to worry about, which is presumably why Sam Smith is being treated as a hero.

00:39:47.000 So you all remember Sam Smith from the Grammys where he performed as Satan.

00:39:50.000 Well, he's still doing that routine.

00:39:53.000 What is the crowd for this?

00:39:55.000 Honestly, who finds this stuff like quality entertainment?

00:39:58.000 Not only is it tired and boring, it's also absolutely horrifying.

00:40:04.000 Sam Smith claims now that he is, what, gender non-binary?

00:40:07.000 He keeps switching his identity every couple of minutes.

00:40:09.000 So he's a gender non-binary man or something.

00:40:12.000 But he's still gay, right? 1.00

00:40:14.000 I mean, he is a man who wants to have sex with other men. 1.00

00:40:17.000 I have a question for gay dudes. 1.00

00:40:18.000 Is this attractive to you? 0.97

00:40:20.000 It's a question for all the gay folks in the audience. 0.88

00:40:23.000 Because why? 0.75

00:40:26.000 I find this confusing.

00:40:27.000 Anyway, here is Sam Smith prancing on world tour.

00:40:31.000 There are no audience age restrictions on the show, by the way.

00:40:33.000 So all the wonderful Democrat parents who think that the 4 in 10 Democrats who think that it's appropriate for children to attend drag shows, they can be perfectly happy attending a satanic strip show with obese man Sam Smith.

00:40:46.000 Good God.

00:40:57.000 It's just funny at this point, like... Yeah, yeah, okay, stop being funny.

00:41:00.000 Now it's just, ugh.

00:41:03.000 Ugh.

00:41:05.000 Oh, no.

00:41:06.000 Oh no.

00:41:19.000 Okay guys, this is what you're doing to the culture.

00:41:21.000 Really?

00:41:21.000 Well, well done.

00:41:23.000 This is what Woke does to the culture throughout, by the way.

00:41:25.000 Just destroy all standards of beauty, decency, truth, all of those things must go.

00:41:30.000 Which is presumably why you end up with Lizzo doing a selfie video in which she explains that she is the new standard for beauty. 1.00

00:41:39.000 Nope!

00:41:41.000 Just gonna go, nope!

00:41:43.000 Yeah, that's gonna be a no from me.

00:41:47.000 I just finished showering and doing my little routine, and you know what I realized? 0.54

00:41:52.000 I am f***ing gorgeous.

00:41:55.000 I am the beauty standard. 0.97

00:41:57.000 Catch up, b***h. Okay, so first of all, when did narcissism become an amazing thing? 0.81

00:42:08.000 When did it become a great thing? 0.97

00:42:10.000 It's pretty amazing that narcissism has just become the hallmark of decency.

00:42:17.000 But also, is this the new standard for beauty?

00:42:19.000 Because I feel like not.

00:42:21.000 Yeah, that's that's what beautiful looks like.

00:42:23.000 I mean, I got it.

00:42:24.000 I got to admit, my standard of beauty was not actually Slimer from Ghostbusters, but apparently that's the new beautiful is Slimer from Ghostbusters.

00:42:37.000 Not so much.

00:42:39.000 She made her beauty the issue. 1.00

00:42:40.000 I didn't.

00:42:42.000 I've never proclaimed myself the world's best looking person because that's absurd.

00:42:45.000 When she proclaims herself the world's best looking person when she is objectively not in like the top 85%?

00:42:52.000 That's not my fault.

00:42:55.000 That's her fault.

00:42:56.000 But this is what we do, right?

00:42:57.000 Wokeness means that you can never have judgments.

00:42:59.000 Judgments are bad.

00:43:00.000 Except they're judgment of you, if you actually have standards.

00:43:03.000 The only true non-judgmentalism is to judge everybody who has actual standards when it comes to the real meaning of terms.

00:43:09.000 Like, say, beauty or decency for children or man or woman.

00:43:13.000 All standards must be absolutely exploded.

00:43:15.000 That's the only way you end up with the conclusion that Lizzo is somehow, you know, the height and standard for human beauty.

00:43:21.000 We're creating a better culture for our kids, guys.

00:43:21.000 Good stuff.

00:43:23.000 It's all going to be just fine.

00:43:25.000 In just one second, we'll get to the debt ceiling debate.

00:43:27.000 First, I have a problem in my life.

00:43:30.000 Here's the problem.

00:43:31.000 I hate vegetables.

00:43:32.000 They're horrible.

00:43:34.000 I'm a deep religious believer, but also, if I were going to be agnostic, it would just be because only a cruel God would make vegetables the thing that you actually have to have in order to remain healthy, because vegetables are just awful and terrible.

00:43:44.000 Well, if you hate vegetables like I do, or maybe you don't hate vegetables, you just don't have the ability to cram as many vegetables in your maw as necessary to keep yourself healthy, you need to check out Balance of Nature.

00:43:53.000 Balance of Nature fruits and veggies are a great way to make sure that you're getting essential nutritional ingredients every single day.

00:44:35.000 Promo code Shapiro for 35% off your first preferred order.

00:44:38.000 Okay, meanwhile, the debt ceiling debate is now breaking out into the open.

00:44:42.000 So, this has been approaching for quite a while here.

00:44:44.000 They kicked the can down the road at the end of last year, did Mitch McConnell and company.

00:44:47.000 They didn't want to negotiate with the Republican House.

00:44:49.000 Because they thought they couldn't get it together or something specific kicked the can down the road.

00:44:53.000 Well, now they're going to have a big debt ceiling debate.

00:44:55.000 Now, we just keep running up against the debt ceiling because the United States has a crack spending problem.

00:45:00.000 They just keep spending and spending and spending and spending.

00:45:03.000 We now have a $31 trillion national debt here in the United States.

00:45:07.000 That's not counting all of the unfunded public liabilities, which amount to presumably You know, tens of trillions of dollars more than that, hundreds of trillions of dollars more than that, perhaps.

00:45:15.000 So things are going splendidly on the financial front.

00:45:18.000 And if you even say out loud that you wish to cut spending by like that much, this means that you're a bad person who wishes to deprive the poor.

00:45:25.000 This is the media's line.

00:45:27.000 So House Speaker Kevin McCarthy says that House Republicans will pass legislation raising the debt ceiling and curbing some federal spending.

00:45:34.000 In a speech that he gave Monday at the New York Stock Exchange, he laid out the House Republican demands for agreeing to a debt limit increase.

00:45:39.000 They want Congress to place limits on federal spending, claw back some unused COVID-19 aid because there's like billions of dollars in a slush fund that was never actually used, and require Americans to work to receive federal benefits.

00:45:50.000 Those measures would be paired with a debt limit increase that would last into next year.

00:45:53.000 So I have a question.

00:45:54.000 What about those things are objectionable?

00:45:57.000 Requiring Americans to work to receive federal benefits as opposed to you just get to stay home?

00:46:00.000 That seems normal.

00:46:02.000 But according to Democrats, you just have to pass a clean debt limit increase.

00:46:06.000 The debt ceiling just has to be increased without any spending cuts ever.

00:46:09.000 You must never, ever cut the spending.

00:46:11.000 And here is Kevin McCarthy talking about the fact that Joe Biden has just ignored all of this.

00:46:17.000 For 75 days, the president has ignored the debt ceiling.

00:46:23.000 As Speaker of the House, I have a responsibility to tell the nation that that has got to stop.

00:46:32.000 I'm here to tell you I want a responsible, sensible debt ceiling.

00:46:38.000 It puts us on an economic path to make America stronger.

00:46:43.000 It works for every American.

00:46:45.000 But that cannot happen if the President continues to ignore the problem.

00:46:52.000 And he can't continue any longer.

00:46:55.000 The day is coming.

00:46:57.000 I do not want to see this president bumble in to a default.

00:47:03.000 I want to sit down and solve the problem together.

00:47:10.000 So that's all well and good, except that Joe Biden won't even pick up the phone.

00:47:13.000 McCarthy says, I haven't even heard from Biden.

00:47:15.000 I've had months to negotiate this and Biden won't even call me back.

00:47:19.000 Unfortunately, I have not heard from the White House since our very first meeting.

00:47:25.000 President Biden has been missing in action and misleading the public.

00:47:30.000 Mr. President, with all due respect, enough is enough.

00:47:35.000 This is not how the leader of the free world should act.

00:47:40.000 Your partisan political games are provoking the very crisis you claim to avoid.

00:47:48.000 Well, that, of course, is true.

00:47:50.000 Well, all of this has meant, of course, Democratic backlash because Democrats have the easy solution here.

00:47:55.000 The easy solution is we never actually limit the spending.

00:47:57.000 We just keep borrowing and spending and spending and borrowing is going to have some pretty dire effects down the line, as we'll discuss in just a moment internationally.

00:48:03.000 But here is Chuck Schumer saying we're not even allowed to talk about this stuff.

00:48:05.000 Stop it.

00:48:06.000 We're not going to cut anything.

00:48:08.000 Democrats want to avoid defaulting on our country's debts.

00:48:12.000 Meanwhile, Speaker McCarthy continues to bumble our country towards a catastrophic default, which would cause the economy to crash, cause monumental job loss, and drastically raise costs to the American people.

00:48:28.000 He went all the way to Wall Street and gave us no more details, no more facts, no new information at all.

00:48:37.000 I'll be blunt.

00:48:38.000 If Speaker McCarthy continues in this direction, we are headed to default.

00:48:45.000 Okay, now the reason Democrats are saying this is because they like to blame McCarthy for the default because the idea is that somehow status quo is we just keep spending and spending and spending and spending.

00:48:53.000 And so anyone who makes the counter argument is then held hostage.

00:48:55.000 And this is true for every sort of federal spending program, every entitlement program.

00:48:59.000 This is why it's now become a third rail to say that we actually do need to restructure Medicare and Social Security or those programs will go bankrupt.

00:49:06.000 Every single person who follows this stuff knows that that is the case.

00:49:09.000 Everyone knows that eventually we're going to have to raise the retirement age or cut benefits or raise taxes dramatically or all three.

00:49:14.000 Everyone knows this.

00:49:15.000 This is not a question.

00:49:16.000 France just had to do the same thing, but you're not even allowed to talk about it because again, we're just going to walk ourselves blindly into that debt wall.

00:49:22.000 That's, that's precisely what's going to happen.

00:49:24.000 By the way, Joe Biden actually voted in favor of spending reforms attached to debt limit increases when he was in the Senate four times, 85, 87, 93, 97.

00:49:30.000 The other times, When he opposed raising the debt limit, it was because he said deficit reduction measures were not enough to justify debt limit increases.

00:49:41.000 But now he's going to claim we can never, ever play with the debt ceiling.

00:49:43.000 Ever, ever, ever.

00:49:44.000 Now, here's the thing.

00:49:45.000 What is likely to happen here over the course of the mid to long term is that our global opponents, who own enormous amounts of our debt, are likely to start disinvesting in American debt.

00:49:55.000 They're not going to buy new American bonds, which makes it harder for us to raise the money in order for us to actually pay for the programs.

00:50:01.000 They're going to sell off our debt as they attempt to hurt the United States economy and shift over to using some other form of currency instead of the dollar as the global backstop, basically.

00:50:14.000 There is a reason why China right now is attempting to build an alternative to the dollar.

00:50:19.000 And there's also a reason why China is calling in its own debt.

00:50:22.000 So China is now calling in its debts from other countries and refusing to negotiate on relieving that debt because China would like to bring cash into China, presumably so they can then hold the American economy hostage in some way.

00:50:34.000 When we continue to spend and when we sell a huge amount of our debt to our own enemies like China, we are actually harming our own national security interests.

00:50:42.000 But we have to just continue pretending, I guess, that all of this is totally fine.

00:50:46.000 That everything is fine because, after all, if we just keep spending, probably everything will be okay.

00:50:50.000 I mean, when has that— Consequences never happen.

00:50:54.000 There are never any consequences at all.

00:50:57.000 By the way, we're going to run into an international debt crisis that has nothing to do with the United States at the same time.

00:51:02.000 Even the New York Times is now acknowledging this.

00:51:04.000 The New York Times editorial board today has a piece called How to Avoid Another Global Debt Crisis, and they're pointing out that a bunch of countries are about to fall into default.

00:51:11.000 Forget the United States for a second.

00:51:12.000 A bunch of countries are about to fall into default.

00:51:16.000 They point out That in Pakistan, more than half of government revenue may have to be devoted to repaying foreign debt unless the country gets relief.

00:51:23.000 In Laos, which owed two billions in debt payments in 2020, the government is now cutting its healthcare budget.

00:51:28.000 Ecuador is telling government employees to work two fewer hours a day to get spending under control in order to get emergency loans.

00:51:34.000 So what are they actually recommending?

00:51:35.000 What they're actually recommending is that the West forgive that debt.

00:51:40.000 That the West absorb that cost.

00:51:41.000 Well, so we're going to be absorbing the cost not only of our own spending, but everybody else's spending as well.

00:51:47.000 Yeah, good luck.

00:51:48.000 The debt time bomb that the world has now incurred because of freedom from, for example, a gold standard or any sort of underlying currency standard, it's going to be dramatic.

00:51:58.000 It's going to be dramatic. 0.96

00:51:58.000 And the United States is playing idiotic games with both our own economic stability and the global economic system when we spend like this. 0.96

00:52:06.000 But we have to, again, anybody who claims that we should cut spending is apparently a bad person. 0.97

00:52:10.000 Okay, time for a thing I like, and then we'll get to a thing that I hate.

00:52:13.000 So, things that I like today.

00:52:16.000 I do love that Elizabeth Warren has just run out of any sort of actual program.

00:52:21.000 And so now, she wants to urge the DOJ to investigate Warner Brothers because they axed Batgirl.

00:52:28.000 I'm not kidding.

00:52:29.000 This is a real thing.

00:52:31.000 According to BoundingIntoComics.com, the pains of Warner Media's merger with Discovery aren't behind the new entity yet.

00:52:36.000 After previously not contesting the merger and letting the deal go through, Democrat lawmakers in Washington are now calling for an investigation of Warner Brothers' Discovery under antitrust laws.

00:52:45.000 A group of four, one senator and three members of the House, sent a letter to the AG and his antitrust chief.

00:52:51.000 Senator Elizabeth Warren, as well as three wild leftists, Joaquin Castro of Texas, David Cicilline of Rhode Island, and Pramila Jayapal of Washington, wrote to the DOJ, saying that the merger, quote, appears to have enabled the new company to adopt potentially anti-competitive practices that reduce consumer choice and harm workers in affected labor markets.

00:53:08.000 They also claim the merger has quote, enabled the combined company to take aggressive measures, harming workers and creatives in the media and entertainment industry, while eliminating the disciplining forces of competition that provide workers with the freedom to change jobs or negotiate for better pay and working conditions.

00:53:22.000 The document says the company has the incentive and ability to eliminate broad swaths of its workforce, leaving workers with fewer choices for employment and advancement.

00:53:30.000 Apparently, they are alluding to layoffs, cuts and myriad other canceled productions over the last year, including Batgirl.

00:53:38.000 I love this.

00:53:39.000 I just want, all I want from now until the end of time is Elizabeth Warren out there stomping for Batgirl. 1.00

00:53:43.000 Which apparently was, it had already been filmed and it was so bad they shelved it after it had been filmed.

00:53:47.000 You know how bad a film has to be?

00:53:48.000 It's like the day the clown laughed or whatever it was.

00:53:51.000 The day the clown died.

00:53:52.000 The Jerry Lewis film that was so bad that they actually ended up shelving and it's never appeared anywhere.

00:53:57.000 That's what happened to Batgirl after spending millions and millions of dollars, and Elizabeth Warren's like, ah, we have to block a merger unless I get to see Batgirl. 1.00

00:54:04.000 So, gotta love Elizabeth Warren.

00:54:06.000 That lady is desperate for attention. 1.00

00:54:07.000 Okay, time for a quick thing that I hate. 1.00

00:54:09.000 So in case you didn't know, I tend to think that the mainstream media are a bag of flaming hot garbage. Uh, The reason that I think this is clear, they are terrible at everything. 0.98

00:54:22.000 And they do not understand almost anything.

00:54:24.000 So the UK Telegraph has an unbelievable piece today.

00:54:27.000 It is so funny.

00:54:28.000 It's a really funny piece.

00:54:30.000 It is called Meet the Elite Couples Breeding to Save Mankind.

00:54:34.000 And the whole thing is about, quote unquote, pro-natalism.

00:54:38.000 So the idea here is that if you think that the world is going to underpopulate itself, which it clearly is going to do in the West, there's not a single Western country that has an above replacement rate, reproductive rate in the West, except for Israel. 0.51

00:54:50.000 It's literally the only one.

00:54:51.000 The United States is currently clocking in at just under 1.8.

00:54:54.000 France is clocking in at 1.2.

00:54:55.000 Point one is the replacement rate.

00:54:56.000 Two point one kids per family per woman. 0.98

00:54:59.000 That's the replacement rate.

00:55:00.000 If you wish to maintain your population, I may increase it just to maintain it.

00:55:03.000 Some countries like South Korea, like point eight.

00:55:05.000 Japan is like point nine. 0.99

00:55:08.000 These numbers are terrible.

00:55:11.000 Which means that all these countries are going to depopulate.

00:55:13.000 And a bunch of environmentalists are like, yeah, fewer humans.

00:55:15.000 That means better for the trees and such.

00:55:17.000 But here's the reality.

00:55:19.000 When you depopulate your countries, the first thing to go is your social welfare net. 0.62

00:55:22.000 Because ain't nobody there to pay the bills.

00:55:24.000 When you have no kids who are there to support your giant socialistic enterprises, you know what happens to them?

00:55:29.000 They collapse.

00:55:30.000 When the kids don't exist to actually do the innovating, what happens to economic growth?

00:55:34.000 Things get worse.

00:55:34.000 It tanks.

00:55:35.000 Depopulation is a great threat.

00:55:38.000 But the media doesn't understand this argument.

00:55:40.000 And not only do they not understand it, they don't understand who's actually having babies.

00:55:43.000 So in order to prop up... So there are people like me who have said for a long time that if you are a good and decent person, you should get married and have children.

00:55:52.000 Right?

00:55:53.000 You know what I mean by that?

00:55:55.000 When I say good and decent, I mean you should... If you're a man, you should marry a woman. 1.00

00:55:59.000 If you're a woman, you should marry a man. 1.00

00:56:00.000 And then you should have children inside of a solid religious community.

00:56:04.000 And you should produce children who are happy and healthy and given rules and roles.

00:56:07.000 This is what I mean.

00:56:07.000 Right?

00:56:09.000 So who does the UK Telegraph find to front the quote-unquote pro-natalist movement?

00:56:13.000 Not the people who are actually having lots of babies in mass numbers, namely religious people in every Western society, right? 0.90

00:56:18.000 The only increasing populations in Western societies are Mormons, religious Catholics, Orthodox Jews, religious Muslims, Evangelical Protestants.

00:56:29.000 That's it.

00:56:30.000 Those are the only people who are reproducing in above-replacement rate numbers in Western societies.

00:56:34.000 That is the entirety of the list.

00:56:36.000 Okay, so who did they go and they find?

00:56:38.000 They found a couple of people who are super weird to talk about this.

00:56:42.000 Quote, at the beginning of March, Arya Babu quit her job as a think tank to dedicate herself to something most people have never heard of.

00:56:47.000 Having worked in public policy for several years, the 26-year-old Londoner had come to an alarming realization about the future of the UK, the world, and the human species.

00:56:55.000 Babu says, quote, it became clear to me people wanted more children than they were having.

00:56:59.000 Considering this is such a massive part of people's lives, the fact that we're not able to fulfill this want was clearly indicative that something was wrong.

00:57:06.000 And then they go on to examine the case of people who created a pro-natalist website.

00:57:16.000 These people are named Simone and Malcolm Collins, two 30-something American entrepreneurs turned philosophers and parents who say they are only the most outspoken proponent of a belief that many prefer to keep private.

00:57:25.000 In 2021, they founded a non-denominational campaign group called pronatalist.org under the umbrella of their nonprofit pragmatist foundation.

00:57:32.000 Buoyed by a $482,000 donation from an Estonian tech billionaire, it is now lobbying governments, meeting business leaders, and seeking partnerships with reprotech companies and fertility clinics.

00:57:42.000 The Collinses did not coin the word pronatalism, which has long been used, along with natalism, to describe government policies aimed at increasing birth rates or mainstream pro-birth positions like that of the Catholic Church.

00:57:52.000 Its opposite is antinatalism, the idea that it's wrong to bring a new person into the world if they're unlikely to have a good life.

00:57:58.000 Malcolm said, quote, I don't think it's appealing to just Silicon Valley people.

00:58:02.000 It's more like anyone who's familiar with modern science and familiar with statistics is aware that this is an issue.

00:58:05.000 But what are they looking for?

00:58:06.000 A secular, paradoxically unorthodox reconstruction of arguably the most traditional view on Earth.

00:58:12.000 So what are they pushing?

00:58:13.000 They're pushing like fake wombs. 1.00

00:58:16.000 I'm not kidding.

00:58:16.000 They think the way they're going to solve the birthright crisis in the West is through alternative family structures and fake wombs.

00:58:24.000 Because the alternative, which would be encouraging religious people to get married to each other and have families, is like the Nazis. 0.90

00:58:29.000 This is really what the UK Telegraph suggests.

00:58:32.000 The problem, he concedes, is that a falling birth rate is a common preoccupation of neo-Nazis and other ethno-nationalists who believe they are being outbred and replaced by other races.

00:58:41.000 The Collinses strongly disavow racism and reject the idea that any country's population should be homogenous.

00:58:47.000 Another issue is what you might call the Handmaid's Tale problem.

00:58:49.000 From Nazi Germany's motherhood medals to the sprawling brood of infamous Kansas-based God-hate f***ing preacher Fred Phelps, a zeal for large families has often been accompanied by patriarchal gender politics. 0.95

00:58:58.000 For liberal Westerners, the idea that we would need to have more babies, we being a loaded pronoun when not all of us would actually bear them, may conjure images of Margaret Atwood's Gilead.

00:59:08.000 Both the Collinses contend this is the kind of future that they are trying to prevent.

00:59:12.000 People compare our group to Handmaid's Tale-like thinking, says Malcolm, and I'm like, excuse me?

00:59:17.000 Though they define themselves politically as conservatives, Malcolm invariably votes Republican, they claim to favor LGBTQ rights and abortion rights and oppose any attempt to pressure those who don't want children into parenthood.

00:59:26.000 Instead, they say, their hope is to preserve a quote-unquote diverse range of cultures that might otherwise die out beginning within the next 75 to 100 years.

00:59:33.000 They want to build a movement that can support people of all colors and creeds while wanting who already want to have large families.

00:59:40.000 And so, they have decided.

00:59:44.000 These are the representatives of the pro-natal, of the have-babies position.

00:59:47.000 Not the religious Catholics actually having lots of babies, or the religious Jews having lots of babies, or the Mormons, or the religious Muslims having lots of babies. 0.57

00:59:53.000 No.

00:59:53.000 It is this secular couple who apparently run a small website.

00:59:59.000 This is like 5,000 rupees, quote.

01:00:02.000 This is quoting the woman, Simone, quote.

01:00:06.000 As she says this, her five-month-old daughter, Titan Invictus, the couple refused to give girls feminine names, citing research suggesting they will be taken less seriously, is strapped to her chest, occasionally burbling, while Malcolm has charge of their two sons, Torsten II and Octavian III.

01:00:20.000 They live in the leafy suburbs of Philadelphia, balancing parenthood with full-time jobs as co-chief executives of a travel company, writing books about pronatalism.

01:00:26.000 They project an image of accentuated preppiness, dressing an ultra-crisp country-club business casual when photographers visit, and are open and effusive to the press.

01:00:35.000 And she says that she took no time off during Octavian's gestation.

01:00:42.000 Gestation?

01:00:43.000 Answered business calls while in labor, returned to the office five days after his birth.

01:00:46.000 She stays with each child continuously for the first six months, carrying them in a chest harness, after which Malcolm handles the bulk of child raising.

01:00:53.000 Now, again, so basically, again, they went to the people who are least likely to be an example of people who are having lots of babies.

01:00:58.000 They're like, these are the people who are pushing lots of babies. 0.98

01:01:00.000 You know, all the people who want to create artificial wombs Yeah, nailed it guys. 1.00

01:01:07.000 The media treating parenting as it absolutely, it's like they're visiting an alien civilization.

01:01:14.000 And then they went and found like the actual weirdest people in the alien civilization in order to talk about pronatalist policies.

01:01:20.000 You know, it's real easy to find people who have lots of babies and aren't interested in, for example, developing artificial wombs or avoiding nuclear family structure.

01:01:28.000 They're all over the place.

01:01:30.000 In fact, if you throw a stone in the world, you'll probably hit one of them.

01:01:34.000 But apparently this is the best the media could do.

01:01:36.000 In order to slander, you know, the idea that sort of mainstream people do this, they find a couple of people who seem to be kind of strange.

01:01:42.000 And then they focus in on those people. 0.93

01:01:44.000 Typical media narrative garbage.

01:01:46.000 Alrighty guys, the rest of the show is continuing right now. 0.94

01:01:47.000 You're not going to want to miss it.

01:01:48.000 We'll be talking with Heather McDonald.
