00:01:30.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:10.000You could wake up at 6:30 in the morning, as I typically would, and maybe do a Fox interview, meet with some donors, do some other interviews, get some work done.
00:03:28.000It's a tragedy that New York has fallen.
00:03:33.000There's a new story out, and we could go through how the rising crime and the anarcho-tyranny and how even Bloomberg, I yearn for Bloomberg.
00:03:42.000I want Bloomberg back to be mayor of New York City.
00:03:46.000Bloomberg was an anti-crime, moderate, pro-law and order mayor.
00:03:52.000Yeah, he was all messed up on social liberalism, as you would expect being mayor of New York City, but he also tried to open up charter schools and push back on the teacher unions.
00:04:02.000And basically, he made New York an appealing place to live.
00:04:06.000By the way, Michael Bloomberg has become a significantly more left-wing activist since running for president, trying to run for president.
00:04:14.000But as a mayor, he was a good mayor versus de Blasio, who's a disaster, and Eric Adams, who is a significant disappointment.
00:04:23.000Okay, so Eric Adams finally repealed this city's vaccine mandate.
00:04:28.000Never should have been in place in the first place.
00:04:32.000However, there is this pending lawsuit where we're learning about how New York City is treating the fired employees, the fired New York City teachers.
00:04:44.000So there is a current lawsuit being put forward by the Alliance Defending Freedom.
00:04:49.000The Alliance Defending Freedom said that the Department of Education has some of these former teachers in a category called problem codes.
00:05:03.000But the Department of Education in New York City has forwarded these problem codes and the intimate biometric information of these teachers, including fingerprints, to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the FBI, and the New York State criminal justice system.
00:05:27.000What this basically is, it's a code on their file.
00:05:30.000This is used for everything from being rated as an ineffective teacher to being a literal criminal.
00:05:39.000So, right now, it's not exactly clear what this means in practice, whether this was some sort of innovation or something automatic related to getting to the problem code.
00:05:51.000In the last couple of days, we have now learned that the FBI is targeting Catholic Latin Mass as potential domestic violent extremism.
00:06:03.000The Federal Bureau of Investigation is receiving biometric information from teachers in New York City that refused to take the mRNA shot.
00:06:14.000We know on great authority that the Federal Bureau of Investigation interfered with the 2020 election in collusion with Twitter and Facebook.
00:06:24.000We know that the Federal Bureau of Investigation assigned threat assessment tags to moms and dads that showed up to school board meetings across the country because they didn't want their seven, eight, and nine-year-olds to learn about pornography.
00:06:42.000It's not definitive whether or not the FBI is demanding this.
00:06:46.000It just seems that New York City is sending them automatically, which is even more concerning.
00:06:50.000Why does New York City all of a sudden say we need to send the fingerprints of our fired teachers who were fired because of refusing the mRNA shot?
00:06:59.000And let me just take a, this is a little bit of a necessary tangent.
00:07:04.000Do you know how many bad criminal teachers we don't fire in America every single year?
00:07:10.000Teachers that do not do their job, teachers that do not get students to read at grade level.
00:07:18.000There's something extraordinary that they analyzed every single inner city school in Baltimore, and they found only a handful of students could read at grade level.
00:07:30.000Remember, New York famously had rubber rooms where teachers who were so bad they were accused of pedophilia or criminal activity or showing up late or not teaching at all.
00:07:40.000They would just sit in rooms all day doing nothing.
00:07:43.000This is most powerfully demonstrated in a movie called Waiting for Superman.
00:07:48.000I think Waiting for Superman is one of the most powerful documentaries ever when it comes to making the case for school choice and educational mobility.
00:07:58.000There are 53 schools in Chicago where none of the children in the school can do math at grade level.
00:08:05.00077% tested at Baltimore high schools read at elementary level.
00:08:14.00077% of students in Baltimore that are in high school read at an elementary school level, some at a kindergarten level.
00:08:22.000Now, many of those teachers will never be fired, but the teachers that are fired, at least in the New York City instance, I'm sure you guys could find similar statistics in New York, the teachers that are targeted for termination are the ones that say, no, I don't want to take an mRNA gene-altering shot that is showing to have serious side effects, and I don't even need it to keep me safe from this particular virus.
00:08:44.000We're going to fire them, and we're going to send their fingerprints to the federal bureau of investigation.
00:09:52.000You are nothing more than a cog in the machine.
00:09:56.000And secondly, a tyrannical regime, a despotic government, needs to punish the non-believers.
00:10:06.000And that is exactly, it's no different than a Soviet show trial.
00:10:10.000They want to make an example that if you dare resist us, we will send your fingerprints to the FBI and we will put that scarlet letter on you.
00:12:13.000Look, look, I think that I would be drinking the bottled water and I would be continuing to find out what the tests were showing as far as the air.
00:12:32.000Are you the governor of the state of Ohio or are you some useless bureaucrat that got accidentally promoted as governor?
00:12:40.000Your citizens are trying to tell you and get your attention that the animals they care about are acting differently, that they are experiencing potential breathing problems.
00:12:51.000And you're saying I would be alert and concerned.
00:13:41.000Obviously, Pete Buttigeg is missing an action.
00:13:43.000Pete Buttigieg is too busy telling people about how he chest feeds his kids and how difficult it is to be a gay man in America as a cabinet secretary, whatever Buttigeg's big shtick is, or just regurgitating Chat GPT's latest statements.
00:14:07.000It's not as if we are, we don't have some sort of precedent for the government massively reacting to some sort of public health crisis.
00:14:15.000We did it for COVID and we way overdid it.
00:14:17.000But now there's one that I'm actually legitimately concerned about that you should be, which is carcinogens going into the air and the people breathing them, animals dying and fish dying in the Ohio River, which may or may not be true.
00:14:30.000And we get, well, I would definitely, I would drink bottled water.
00:14:44.000He talks like a paper-pushing bureaucrat.
00:14:47.000Cut six, the Ohio Health Director, Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff, who I guarantee you, if this guy was around the last couple of years, was very, you know, go get the vaccine and stay at home and wear a mask.
00:15:41.000Amanda Brashiers was going to feed her five hens and rooster this morning when she discovered them all lifeless, practically in the same position with no signs of a predator entering their enclosure.
00:15:54.000Brashiers says her chickens were alive and well yesterday.
00:15:57.000She believes the smell following the detonation of the train carrying chemicals that derailed in East Palestine is to blame for her bird's sudden death.
00:16:07.000My video camera footage shows my chickens were perfectly fine before they started this burn.
00:16:12.000And as soon as they started the burn, my chickens slowed down and they died.
00:16:16.000If we can do this to chickens in one night, imagine what it's going to do to us in 20 years.
00:16:20.000Governor DeWine is really making a clown of himself while his citizens are potentially suffering.
00:16:31.000If all home air purifiers are the same, why did the U.S. Department of Defense select EnviroCleanse to protect and purify the air on board our Navy ships?
00:16:41.000Because EnviroCleanse advanced mineral technology goes beyond ordinary HEPA filters to destroy airborne illness causing cold and flu viruses, including COVID.
00:16:51.000EnviroCleanse is the new science in air purification.
00:16:54.000Now you could order one for your home.
00:16:55.000This is how to help stop colds and flu from taking your whole family down.
00:17:00.000This is how you destroy allergy, inflaming toxins, and mold from the air your family breathes.
00:17:04.000In fact, the hospital-grade technology is so powerful that it promises far fewer colds and allergies and better sleep.

00:19:14.000We know that there is a plume moving down the Ohio River.
00:19:18.000So all of our neighboring states, State Departments, and Arsenco are in constant communication about the location of the plume.
00:19:27.000We think it's on its way around Huntsville or Huntington, West Virginia now.
00:19:33.000And so all of those water systems are in constant communication on when it may be at their intake, and they're either shutting down and or using the treatment available that they have on site.
00:19:45.000Hey, Mike DeWine, why don't you go move there with your kids and your grandkids for just a week?
00:20:32.000I think he was there before they started the fire, but is he willing to spend a week there and inhale the beautiful fresh air of eastern Ohio?
00:20:41.000Now, why am I spending so much time on this?
00:21:03.000Why is he rolling the dice with his voters?
00:21:06.000He's treating them like subjects, not like citizens.
00:21:10.000This is a governor who told everybody to stay at home, who had one of the harshest lockdown strategies of any Republican governor in the country.
00:21:19.000Yes, he was more moderate than Pritzker and Whitmer and Newsome and Hochul, but he was up there as one of the most aggressive lockdown governors.
00:21:28.000So this is someone who's, we know he's willing to use government power to tell people to stop doing things they otherwise would be doing.
00:21:35.000So why is it that Mike Dewine was so concerned about, remember when Mike DeWine put in curfews, if I'm not mistaken, Mike Dewine at one period of time instituted curfews across the state of Ohio.
00:21:47.000And they were later repealed, obviously, with great backlash.
00:21:51.000But he's not afraid to say that something can harm you.
00:23:20.000In fact, and this goes, this is, you want, you want, I mean, you all believe it in this audience, obviously, but do you want another piece of evidence that America is falling apart?
00:23:29.000A country, a civilization, or an empire that is falling apart is far more worried about conflicts abroad than turmoil at home.
00:23:41.000You could call it maybe an escape mechanism.
00:23:45.000It might be actually, there might be a psychological explanation for this, quite honestly, where you almost don't want to admit about what's happening around you.
00:23:54.000So you just kind of indulge in delusions and abstractions and distractions.
00:23:59.000But if you go to CNN.com, you go to the front page of the New York Times, the front page of the New York Times is more focused on the earthquake in Turkey.
00:24:16.000Now, just to remind you, when you burn vinyl chloride, one of the chemicals used in the spill, it turns into phosphine gas, the most deadly poison gas used in World War I. Probably a big deal when animals start dying and kids start projectile vomiting.
00:24:31.000And by the way, there's now toxic gas in the air.
00:24:34.000I think it's been handled in Pima County, right outside of Tucson.
00:24:37.000We've had a derailment in South Carolina.
00:24:40.000We've also had one outside of Houston, since Ohio.
00:24:44.000You know, for a country that just spent a trillion dollars on infrastructure, we can't get planes to arrive on time in the Christmas season.
00:24:54.000For a country that has spent a trillion dollars in infrastructure, we got a lot of trains derailing.
00:25:01.000By one estimate, 25 million Americans live in an oil train blast zone.
00:25:06.000And one had the derailment occur just a few miles east.
00:25:09.000It would be burning in downtown Pittsburgh with tens of thousands of residents in immediate danger.
00:25:14.000About 4.5 metric tons of toxic chemicals are shipped by rail each year.
00:25:19.000And an average of 12,000 rail cars carrying hazardous materials pass through cities and towns each day, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation.
00:25:28.000But you got Pete Buttigieg running it, who's saying to you that it's all about equity.
00:25:32.000And by the way, if it's about equity, that means, hey, that's why I've connected the other part of it because he's saying, hey, we need less white construction workers.
00:25:41.000A lack of response in heavily white eastern Ohio is equity.
00:25:48.000The same ideological ideas that are being taught in our schools that we are told is critical race theory, all these different things, they have real world implications.
00:26:03.000And the militant anti-white beliefs of the current regime manifest into the action or lack of action that we see in all sorts of different examples.
00:26:20.000This is just one of many that we're going to see, has real life implications.
00:26:30.000Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, Mike Lindell with My Pillow is launching the My Pillow 2.0.
00:26:36.000That's right, you heard me, MyPillow 2.0.
00:26:38.000Mike Lindell, great American patriot, invented my pillow.

00:27:28.000That is mypillow.com, promo code Kirk.
00:28:09.000But one of the other reasons is rather simple, which is we have told an entire generation repeatedly that licentiousness is a virtue.
00:28:23.000That being able to do whatever you want to do, whenever you want to do it, is somehow something that we should platform and that we should really endeavor towards.
00:28:33.000So there's a person who calls herself a comedian, Chelsea Handler.
00:28:39.000If you didn't tell me she was a comedian, I wouldn't know she was one.
00:28:42.000Do you notice that Jerry Seinfeld never has to describe himself as a comedian?
00:28:46.000You just know he's funny because he is.
00:28:49.000So she produced this video, and I'm going to just give you a little bit of a warning.
00:28:53.000It's a little crude, but it's important because a lot of your children and grandchildren are consuming this information.
00:28:58.000But I think it's an important window to the morality or lack thereof that many young people are believing and acting upon, which creates emptiness and misery.
00:30:41.000For someone who is a father, I could tell you it only gets better.
00:30:44.000And I also know, Chelsea Handler, that part of me is going to live on in another human being.
00:30:50.000And that's really special and beautiful.
00:30:52.000And you could try as hard as you want to try to persuade us and to convince us that you're happy.
00:30:58.000But that two-minute video, that minute video that we just saw kind of shows us the opposite.
00:31:05.000What is your legacy going to be, Chelsea Handler?
00:31:08.000That you did a bunch of edible marijuana and hooked up with a bunch of guys that you don't even remember their name and you slept into 1230 every single day?
00:31:18.000What that is, is a picture of modernity.
00:31:23.000Absent, one of the things that is a tie that binds us together that we are forgetting, and I sure hope we can bring back, which is duty.
00:31:34.000You should have duty to the divine, duty to your fellow citizen, duty to the true and the good and the beautiful.
00:31:42.000Sometimes when you raise a child, it is not easy, but it's not just about you, it's about a duty to future generations to pass down something so that other generations can flourish, can live on.
00:31:59.000When Chelsea Handler dies and we are all going to die, she will have very little legacy to live on.
00:33:25.000And secondly, just to give you an idea of what you're dealing with, Chelsea Handler, she's currently right now on a tour called Vaccinated and Horny, Comedy Tour.
00:33:36.000And while she was on the comedy tour, she had a hospital scare after a show in Seattle because she had cardiomeopathy, which means an adrenaline shot to the heart because of stress.
00:33:51.000Look, I respect people's free will and agency, but I believe it's a mistake to tell young people that you can find guaranteed eternal meaning and joy absent getting married and having children.
