00:00:20.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:22.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

00:00:24.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:28.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:31.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:32.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:33.000 His spirit is love of this country.

00:00:35.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:00:40.000 Turning point USA. 0.65

00:00:42.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:00:50.000 That's why we are here.

00:00:53.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.

00:01:02.000 Joining us now is Jenny Beth Martin to talk about a new movie called Innovation Race.

00:01:08.000 There is no prize for second place.

00:01:11.000 And Jenny Beth is with us now.

00:01:13.000 Jenny Beth, welcome back to the program.

00:01:15.000 Thanks so much for having me again, Charlie.

00:01:17.000 Tell us about the movie.

00:01:19.000 So we've done this documentary and it really sets up the dynamic with America and China in the innovation and technology race, comparing it to what America and the Soviet Union went through in the space race back in the 60s.

00:01:35.000 And we make the case that we have to make sure that we win when it comes to the innovation race.

00:01:40.000 America needs to have more inventions, more inventors, and we need to stay on the cutting edge when it comes to innovation in order to outpace and beat China. 0.91

00:01:50.000 And we've got a real problem right now in America.

00:01:53.000 We used to have very strong laws that would protect intellectual property and patents.

00:01:58.000 During the Obama administration, a Republican-controlled Congress passed a bill that Obama signed into law that weakened our patent system.

00:02:07.000 And we make the case in the movie that we need to go back and strengthen it.

00:02:10.000 It's a bipartisan issue.

00:02:12.000 Even Senator Chris Koons is in this movie.

00:02:15.000 And so is Congressman Thomas Massey.

00:02:18.000 It's really an America-first movie making the case that we need to strengthen our intellectual property system so that we can beat China in the innovation race. 0.67

00:02:26.000 So walk our audience through that.

00:02:28.000 So what are the current patent laws and what changes do you think should be made to them?

00:02:33.000 So prior to 2000, around 2010, maybe a little bit before and going into about 2012, prior to that time period, we had pretty strong patent laws in America.

00:02:47.000 And the patent laws are actually protected or the patents and the right to hold your own intellectual property is protected in the Constitution in Article 1 of the Constitution.

00:02:59.000 So this actually was a revolutionary idea that our founders had that an inventor and a person who thinks of things with their mind, that intellectual property belongs to the person who thinks of it.

00:03:14.000 And if you come up with a brand new idea, you share it with the whole world through the patent system.

00:03:19.000 So you put it all out there for the world to see and the world to benefit from, you get exclusive use of that patent for a fixed period of time.

00:03:28.000 In this case, it's 20 years.

00:03:30.000 The problem right now is that a new court was set up back in 2012 that is an administrative court called the PTAB.

00:03:38.000 I really call it the death panel for patents.

00:03:41.000 And so now instead of going through the regular court system, if your patent is challenged, you're going through this court of lawyers who are experts.

00:03:52.000 And you and I both know when experts start making decisions, usually it's not the right decision.

00:03:57.000 But the very same office, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office grants patents, and then they have the P tab in the same building and invalidate the very patents that they granted.

00:04:09.000 It's a real problem right now, and it's preventing innovation from happening here as it should.

00:04:15.000 Let's play the trailer.

00:04:17.000 Let's play Cut 26.

00:04:20.000 For over a century, America has been the world's inventor, a country whose ideas and innovations transformed mankind.

00:04:29.000 But today, our nation faces challenges at home and abroad.

00:04:34.000 Challenges that threaten our economic and military security and the very idea of American greatness.

00:04:43.000 China is investing heavily in its own innovation, in its own military.

00:04:49.000 They are serious competition for us.

00:04:53.000 We need to up our game.

00:04:56.000 So that's just a little taste of the trailer.

00:04:58.000 I mean, talk about the implications of what happens if we do not address this.

00:05:03.000 Well, I think that if we don't address it, then China is going to be better at innovation than we are. 1.00

00:05:08.000 Right now, as America has weakened its patent system, China has strengthened its patent system.

00:05:14.000 Now, we understand that China, we can't completely trust them. 1.00

00:05:20.000 They don't respect individual rights or they're run by the Communist Party of China.

00:05:26.000 So they have a different take on human rights and individual rights and even property rights than we do in America.

00:05:32.000 But right now, they've strengthened their patent system.

00:05:35.000 And so people are going to China to get their inventions protected and they're not coming here. 0.93

00:05:41.000 Or when they are coming here and they are getting patents here, then the patents wind up getting invalidated.

00:05:49.000 And that is very discouraging because you come up with this great idea.

00:05:53.000 You think you're going to be able to benefit and profit from your idea.

00:05:58.000 And then you cannot do that.

00:05:59.000 I've heard inventors who are inventing tomorrow's technologies.

00:06:04.000 It could be for something that is a medical device.

00:06:07.000 It could be for a national security type system.

00:06:10.000 It could be just for a jump rope or water balloons.

00:06:13.000 But I've heard from inventors who have said that it's better to just take the idea and put it in a filing cabinet and lock the filing cabinet and keep it safe in there rather than letting the world see your invention because America is not protecting those property rights.

00:06:29.000 That is not a good place for us to be when China is trying to be very innovative in the technology space and trying to control the future. 0.96

00:06:38.000 We have to be able to beat them at that game and be better than they are.

00:06:43.000 So what is the current law then for the patent?

00:06:46.000 Is it 20 years for a patent or what is the current law on the road?

00:06:50.000 It's 20 years and that part is not the problem.

00:06:53.000 The problem is more what they are allowing to be patents patented.

00:06:59.000 So one of the things that we think needs to happen is that if you are the first person to invent something, then you should be the person who gets a patent on it if you can prove you were the first one to invent it rather than the person who runs to the patent office and files the paperwork first.

00:07:14.000 There's also a problem with injunctive relief that our court systems have created.

00:07:20.000 So if you are able to say, no, I actually own this patent, it's mine, you should be able in normal circumstances, if somebody's squatting on your property and your house or your business, you'd be able to get them off your property or be able to charge them rent or whatever it may be.

00:07:38.000 Right now, we have a system where you can't get that relief from it, even if you find that people are infringing on your patents.

00:07:46.000 And then the problem with the P tab right now is that it is invalidating patents that should still remain valid.

00:07:53.000 Either that or if they should have been invalidated, then the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office should never have granted the patent in the first place.

00:08:01.000 Okay, so then the policy solution then is just to kind of clean up some of the bureaucracy associated with it.

00:08:09.000 Is that right?

00:08:10.000 That's exactly right. 0.97

00:08:11.000 It's cleaning up the bureaucracy.

00:08:14.000 And Senator Coons has a bill that has a lot of similarities to what Congressman Thomas Massey has in his bill.

00:08:23.000 I tend to prefer the things that are in Thomas Massey's bill because he does more and he's more freedom oriented.

00:08:31.000 But right now, even if we don't get everything that I want, there are places where Democrats and Republicans agree we have got to fix this problem.

00:08:41.000 And the problem that we're facing right now from the bill that was passed into law in the Obama administration is that big tech came in and they wanted to make it easier so that they didn't have to pay patent.

00:08:56.000 They did not have to pay for other people's patents.

00:08:59.000 So they could use the property and the ideas that other people came up with and use it in their own products without having to pay for it.

00:09:07.000 And so they lobbied, got Congress to pass laws that benefit big tech, but actually harm the small inventors in America.

00:09:16.000 And we need to go back and make sure that we're taking care of those smaller inventors.

00:09:21.000 And oftentimes, the people who are the smaller inventors, they're not at all politically minded.

00:09:28.000 They're the mathematicians and the scientists and just the people who come up with some nifty idea that would make a product better and make our lives easier.

00:09:38.000 And they're not engaged in politics and they really should not have to be engaged in politics.

00:09:43.000 That's part of the reason why at Tea Party Patriots, we want to do what we can to help them because the Constitution protects these rights or natural God-given rights in the first place.

00:09:55.000 So people can find it at SalemNow.com.

00:09:58.000 Salem.

00:09:58.000 Is that right?

00:10:00.000 At SalemNow.com.

00:10:02.000 And we've got a website for the documentary.

00:10:04.000 It's innovationracemovie.com.

00:10:07.000 And we link from there back over to SalemNow.com for people to watch it.

00:10:12.000 You can stream it now.

00:10:13.000 I encourage you to watch it and then bring other people over and have other people watch it either with you or encourage them to watch it and talk about it.

00:10:22.000 We did this documentary so we can get the conversation started because we think it's really important as we look at the threats we see from China. 0.93

00:11:42.000 I used to support Paul Ryan.

00:11:44.000 Boy, I was hoodwinked on that one.

00:11:45.000 I was young.

00:11:46.000 Jeez.

00:11:48.000 And Paul Ryan really is a depressing story.

00:11:51.000 I mean, Paul Ryan was always a neoliberal.

00:11:51.000 It is.

00:11:54.000 He pretended to be a conservative.

00:11:56.000 But if you want, if you want some good news, a decade ago, we didn't have shows like this.

00:12:03.000 We didn't have shows like Bannon.

00:12:04.000 We didn't have shows like Tucker.

00:12:05.000 It was all just Republican good, Democrat bad, Republican good, Democrat bad.

00:12:09.000 And yeah, there was some Tea Party energy, but they struggled.

00:12:13.000 If it wasn't for the Rush Limbaugh program or Mark Levin, there really wasn't a lot of air cover to be able to get your voice out as a grassroots conservative.

00:12:20.000 There just wasn't.

00:12:22.000 And now there's an entire infrastructure, an entire movement of media personalities, of influencers, of people that are really able to platform and expose.

00:12:30.000 And Paul Ryan now knows there's really not a lot of media allies left for him.

00:12:35.000 And that's one of the things that the establishment regime conservative, conservative in quotes, Republicans are lamenting.

00:12:44.000 There's not a lot of places left for them to go to kind of spread their nonsense.

00:12:49.000 I mean, he'll get a lot of credibility if he goes on CNN or MSNBC, but I just don't think Paul Ryan would be able or would want to do a whole hour on this program.

00:12:59.000 We'd treat him with respect.

00:12:59.000 We'd treat anybody on this program with respect.

00:13:02.000 Or if he did a whole hour with Steve Bannon on War Room or a whole hour with Tucker Carlson.

00:13:09.000 I don't think that's something they'd be willing to do.

00:13:12.000 And I think it tells you a lot.

00:13:14.000 And one of the reasons why I think conservatives more broadly have an advantage is that we invite the disagreement.

00:13:25.000 We don't hide.

00:13:26.000 It's one of the things we do on our campus tour.

00:13:28.000 Ben Shapiro does this.

00:13:29.000 Matt Walsh does this.

00:13:30.000 Candace Owens does this to their great credit.

00:13:33.000 They invite the disagreement.

00:13:34.000 Can you show me anybody on the left that has a major following that actively invites conservatives to challenge them?

00:13:46.000 Can you show me a single person on the left that actively goes into environments of which are not friendly and asks for disagreement?

00:13:59.000 Now, you might say Bill Maher, that might be a good one, but Bill Maher also does it on his home turf with dozens of writers that have prescripted jokes and one-liner is ready for him.

00:14:10.000 But no doubt, Bill Maher is talented.

00:14:12.000 He's a very talented communicator.

00:14:16.000 But the equivalent would be this: how many liberals would be willing to go to a Lincoln-Reagan Day dinner or to an NRA deal and take questions and film it?

00:14:33.000 I don't see that.

00:14:35.000 That is the equivalent of what we're about to do at Turning Point USA when I'm going to University of California, Santa Barbara, or UC Davis, or Ohio State, or University of Illinois, Chicago.

00:14:45.000 That's the equivalent to go into a hostile territory, take any question.

00:14:49.000 By the way, it's not just questions from students.

00:14:52.000 People from the community can come.

00:14:53.000 Professors can come.

00:14:54.000 Give us your best argument.

00:14:57.000 It's an open mic.

00:15:00.000 And you might prove us wrong or you might win one against us.

00:15:04.000 Good for you.

00:15:05.000 Let's have an open sport.

00:15:07.000 Let's have an open dialogue.

00:15:09.000 You don't see that on the left, especially amongst the people with the biggest followers.

00:15:13.000 And isn't it interesting?

00:15:15.000 You go Shapiro, you go to Walsh, you go Knowles, you go Candace, you go our program.

00:15:21.000 Top, top followers, like the top people, that's the top 10, top 15 in the conservative movement, according to social media followers.

00:15:30.000 And not just unafraid, but enthusiastic to go find the disagreement, embracing it.

00:15:36.000 That is a sign of a movement that long-term will win.

00:15:41.000 The left, they want nothing to do because they, for whatever reason, they know that they're not as good at defending their positions.

00:15:49.000 They don't need it because they get a huge check from the corporate-funded media in the mass distribution.

00:15:55.000 That is changing, everybody.

00:15:57.000 It's changing in real time.

00:16:00.000 Here's some interesting news coming out.

00:16:01.000 John Tester is going to be running for reelection in Montana.

00:16:06.000 That certainly is going to make the 2024 Senate race very, very interesting.

00:16:13.000 Joe Manchin refuses to identify as a Democrat in a TV interview.

00:16:18.000 If we get our act together and we build the machine, we could have a very, very good 2024.

00:16:24.000 But I'm not going to speculate it.

00:16:26.000 I think we need to talk as if we are the underdog.

00:16:29.000 I think we are the underdog going in 202024.

00:16:32.000 In fact, I think the Democrats are likely going to hold on to power.

00:16:36.000 We're currently not building that machine, so we got to get to work.

00:16:38.000 We got to go to places that we usually don't go.

00:16:41.000 It's not going to happen automatically.

00:16:43.000 It has to be an investment into that infrastructure every single day.

00:16:51.000 Look, it is time to consider a rollover of that 401k into an IRA.

00:16:56.000 The investment world is completely different in 2023, and you cannot do the same thing as last year.

00:17:02.000 Woke companies are aggressively implementing ESG.

00:17:06.000 Interest rates are going up, and inflation is still lingering.

00:17:09.000 If you have over $150,000, now is the time to move your money to a biblical responsible investing strategy with my friends at PAX Financial Group.

00:17:17.000 I put my money with PAX, and guess what?

00:17:19.000 I just got to report it's up 12% since last year, and that's while everyone else is down.

00:17:23.000 No joke.

00:17:24.000 Here's how you can connect with PAX: text Charlie to the number 74868.

00:17:28.000 That's it.

00:17:29.000 Just take out your phone.

00:17:30.000 Text Charlie, C-H-A-R-L-I-E to 74868.

00:17:38.000 So take out your phone, text Charlie to number 74868 for biblical responsible investing.

00:17:44.000 Text Charlie to 74868.

00:17:49.000 For the loyal listeners of our program, you've heard me mention ERC, the employee retention credit.

00:17:57.000 You've heard me mention it a couple times.

00:17:59.000 And I've been blown away by the news that we have received of how many of you have been able to successfully get credits from the federal government.

00:18:08.000 And look, I'm very clear.

00:18:09.000 I wish Congress never would have appropriated this money, but it's there.

00:18:15.000 And I'd rather have you get it than Ukraine. 0.99

00:18:16.000 And all of you need to get to look into it, to research it.

00:18:21.000 And as you know, you could do that at covidtaxrelief.org.

00:18:24.000 I was so blown away by the numbers, so enthusiastic about how many of you have been helped by it.

00:18:30.000 Wanted to have Jason from covidtaxrelief.org join us and help break the news.

00:18:36.000 Jason, welcome to the program.

00:18:38.000 Thank you for having me, Charlie.

00:18:40.000 Thanks, Jason.

00:18:40.000 It's good to see you.

00:18:41.000 So, Jason, how many Charlie Kirk show listeners have participated in this program via your company?

00:18:47.000 And how much money have you successfully been able to recover?

00:18:51.000 It continues to blow my mind as well.

00:18:54.000 And at the numbers as of this morning, just from the last time you had us come on here, Charlie, over 200 business owners and over $24 million has been claimed and paid out through the ERC just to your listeners.

00:19:09.000 So that's exciting.

00:19:11.000 That's amazing.

00:19:12.000 So, Jason, give our audience a little picture of who are these people.

00:19:15.000 They're small business owners, they're plumbers, they're electricians.

00:19:18.000 Who are the type of people that are mainly calling you and asking for help?

00:19:23.000 Well, and that's actually what I love about the employee retention credit: it is, it's not just a handout to anyone out there that owns a business.

00:19:32.000 It's only going to those business owners that retained their W-2 employees during the pandemic during 2020 and 2021.

00:19:42.000 And so, it's a true win for business owners.

00:19:45.000 This is, by the way, this is the last COVID stimulus money available to business owners.

00:19:50.000 And look, I like how you put it.

00:19:52.000 Whether you agree or not with the CARES Act, it's already been allocated.

00:19:56.000 It's there.

00:19:57.000 It's out there.

00:19:57.000 It's part of life.

00:19:58.000 So take it, right?

00:20:00.000 If you retained your employees, look at it as a reward for giving those people a place to work during a tough time.

00:20:07.000 I think that's really important.

00:20:08.000 I mean, I'm blown away.

00:20:09.000 Over 211 businesses.

00:20:10.000 And by the way, if you're in the audience, you've heard you say, oh, you know, I have some questions about it.

00:20:14.000 Jason, you guys have answers, and I just encourage people to look into it, right?

00:20:18.000 Some people call and they say, oh, maybe that's not for me.

00:20:20.000 Or some people say, oh, my goodness, this is a lifeline.

00:20:23.000 You guys are a bunch of CPAs, good American patriots.

00:20:26.000 You understand the tax code.

00:20:27.000 You're there to work with them.

00:20:29.000 And also, I just want to say, because there is this employee retention credit, there's a lot of fraudsters out there right now, a lot of them.

00:20:35.000 You see some of their billboards.

00:20:37.000 You see their ads that are trying to take advantage of this.

00:20:40.000 And it's clickbait, you could say, right?

00:20:43.000 But you guys say, hey, only a part of the money after it's fully received.

00:20:48.000 Can you walk our audience through that?

00:20:52.000 You're right.

00:20:53.000 First of all, you hit on the legislation.

00:20:55.000 Guys, there's over 200 pages of legislation for this.

00:21:00.000 We know it forward, backwards, inside out.

00:21:03.000 So go to covettaxrelief.org.

00:21:06.000 You can call the 800 number or put in your information.

00:21:09.000 We'll reach out to you.

00:21:10.000 And we'll take you through a short questionnaire that parallels the IRS guide qualification guidelines.

00:21:17.000 And we'll be able to tell you within a couple minutes if you qualify and roughly how much you qualify for.

00:21:23.000 And you're right.

00:21:24.000 There's been some people popping up that are probably doing it out of their parents' basement.

00:21:29.000 You want to make sure and get with somebody that knows it inside now.

00:21:33.000 We have submitted thousands and thousands of businesses and this is by far the most streamlined process out there.

00:21:40.000 Yeah.

00:21:41.000 And so just share a little bit though about how it's not just businesses, churches and nonprofits also.

00:21:47.000 We have a lot of pastors in our audience.

00:21:50.000 Walk us through that.

00:21:52.000 Yeah, I mean, almost top to bottom, people were affected during the pandemic.

00:21:58.000 So there's a few qualifications.

00:22:00.000 You know, we have this new term that somehow came about during COVID called essential or non-essential.

00:22:08.000 And so if you were deemed non-essential and you had to close or partially close, then you qualify.

00:22:15.000 If you had a revenue reduction that meets the parameters, you qualify.

00:22:19.000 And then the latest legislation change, Charlie, that's blown the hinges off the door is if you had supply chain issues, if you were affected during the pandemic, any of your processes.

00:22:30.000 Yeah, the only ones that are excluded from this really are public entities.

00:22:34.000 Like they can't, you know, obviously they can't take stimulus from themselves.

00:22:38.000 So private schools, churches, nonprofits, certainly traditional style businesses that had W-2 employees.

00:22:48.000 Even Forbes magazine came out and said the IRS anticipates about 80% of all businesses would qualify for ERC funds.

00:22:56.000 And just a little background on it.

00:22:58.000 Charlie, you know, when the CARES Act first came out, businesses could either do PPP or ERC.

00:23:05.000 They could not do both.

00:23:07.000 Well, the PPP was heavily marketed through banks and lending institutions.

00:23:12.000 And so everyone heard about it, right?

00:23:15.000 No one heard of ERC.

00:23:17.000 So they have hundreds of billions of dollars allocated for these business owners and it was not being taken.

00:23:23.000 So they changed that legislation to say, listen, even if you took PPP, you can now take ERC.

00:23:32.000 And we make sure that it's 100% compliant.

00:23:34.000 We're not double dipping funds.

00:23:37.000 Again, if you go to covidtaxrelief.org, we can walk you through the qualification and zero barrier to entry.

00:23:44.000 We don't ask for any form of payment.

00:23:46.000 We just want to show what's there available and help you take it.

00:23:50.000 Again, it's covidtaxrelief.org.

00:23:53.000 And just one more time, 211 businesses and $24 million back in our audience's hands.

00:24:00.000 That's $24 million the Charlie Kirk show gets back to be able to stimulate the economy.

00:24:05.000 The multiplier effect on that's amazing.

00:24:09.000 What happens?

00:24:10.000 You hauled us on and we went through a lot of this.

00:24:12.000 People still were skeptical, even though obviously you have tremendous credibility with your listeners.

00:24:17.000 But a lot of people didn't call.

00:24:19.000 And maybe they thought, hey, you know, I don't want to take this money.

00:24:23.000 Guys, they're not giving it back.

00:24:26.000 Go to that website, see if you qualify.

00:24:29.000 And again, it's up to $26,000 per employee, Charlie.

00:24:34.000 So these business, small businesses with five, six employees are getting over a hundred grand.

00:24:40.000 You know, 10 to 20 employees are getting a quarter million dollars.

00:24:45.000 By the way, it's not a loan that has to be forgiven or paid back, unlike PVP.

00:24:50.000 It's not a grant where you're told how you have to spend it.

00:24:54.000 It's just a check from the U.S. Treasury to you.

00:24:56.000 You can put it in your business, take distribution.

00:24:58.000 You can help certain employees with it, whatever you want to do.

00:25:02.000 Very good.

00:25:02.000 COVIDtaxrelief.org.

00:25:04.000 Jason, thank you so much.

00:25:05.000 And thank you for helping our audience.

00:25:07.000 Thank you.

00:25:08.000 Great seeing you again.

00:25:09.000 Thanks for having us.

00:25:10.000 Email us freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:25:12.000 Okay, I want to talk about a story that was going viral this last weekend.

00:25:17.000 But first, let me read a poll from Ras Mussen. 0.88

00:25:21.000 This Ras Mussen poll was talking about race relations in America, head pollster from Ras Musin Reports.

00:25:29.000 And polling blacks in America asked the question, quote, it's okay to be white.

00:25:36.000 53% of blacks agree that it's okay to be white, and 26% of blacks disagree, and 21% are not sure.

00:25:48.000 It's okay to be white. 0.97

00:25:50.000 72% of Americans agree.

00:25:53.000 69% of Democrats agree.

00:25:56.000 And so 26% of blacks, 26% think it's not okay to be white.

00:26:03.000 Now, that's a rather interesting question.

00:26:06.000 And why they worded it that way, not exactly sure.

00:26:09.000 But it does beg the question of, is there a growing anti-white sentiment in America?

00:26:16.000 This is something that is largely considered to be third rail.

00:26:20.000 You're not allowed to ask about it, not allowed to talk about it.

00:26:23.000 It certainly is in our laws, affirmative action, critical race theory.

00:26:27.000 It's in our curriculum.

00:26:28.000 It's in what we're teaching our kids.

00:26:30.000 It's in the media.

00:26:31.000 It's in our jokes.

00:26:32.000 It's in Hollywood.

00:26:34.000 It's all throughout Netflix and Hulu.

00:26:36.000 It seems to be that there's some sort of design behind this, but are we going too far?

00:26:41.000 Because are we over-exaggerating this?

00:26:43.000 Well, here's a piece of tape here of just some of the anti-white sentiment that is going viral online.

00:26:49.000 Let's play cut five.

00:26:51.000 What are white people superior at? 0.99

00:26:55.000 They're real good at violence. 1.00

00:26:57.000 Violence.

00:26:58.000 It's like stealing people's lives just because they feel like it.

00:27:01.000 Insecurity?

00:27:02.000 Pretending.

00:27:02.000 Fear.

00:27:03.000 Being fearful of nothing. 0.99

00:27:05.000 Being ignorant. 0.99

00:27:06.000 Blame. 1.00

00:27:06.000 Letting their egos control their every move. 1.00

00:27:08.000 Superior at being dick. 1.00

00:27:11.000 Okay, so that is a short montage from the cut, where they say whites are good at genocide, at hate, at violence, and all these sorts of things. 0.99

00:27:19.000 Could you imagine if there was a video of white people saying things about blacks in that regard? 0.97

00:27:25.000 Oh my goodness.

00:27:26.000 Now, I just want to play this out for you.

00:27:29.000 What's so interesting is the poll also asked, do you believe that blacks can also be racist? 0.72

00:27:37.000 And 76% of blacks think, yes, blacks can also be racist. 0.73

00:27:42.000 So that's promising. 0.96

00:27:43.000 But 27% don't think that blacks can become racist.

00:27:48.000 And it actually fits perfectly.

00:27:50.000 And let me tell you why. 0.81

00:27:52.000 So one in four blacks think that blacks cannot be racist. 1.00

00:27:56.000 And one in four blacks think it's not okay to be white. 0.84

00:28:00.000 That is 15 million people in our country.

00:28:04.000 It's not a small number.

00:28:05.000 It's not some sort of fringe idea.

00:28:07.000 It is a minority, praise God, but it's 15 million people.

00:28:11.000 Could you imagine if one in four white people thought that being black was not okay?

00:28:18.000 Here is a poll.

00:28:22.000 Here's the poll here.

00:28:22.000 Do you agree or disagree with the statement, it's okay to be white?

00:28:28.000 42% of blacks strongly agree that that's okay.

00:28:32.000 Only 11% somewhat agree.

00:28:35.000 21% are not sure.

00:28:37.000 They say, I don't know.

00:28:38.000 8% somewhat disagree.

00:28:40.000 And 18% strongly disagree.

00:28:43.000 Again, this is by Rasmussen Reports.

00:28:46.000 It's a rather interesting poll from the commission to even ask this question.

00:28:52.000 So 15 million blacks think it's not okay to have white skin color.

00:28:59.000 That number should be 1 or 2%, not 15 million people, 25% of 1,000 poll respondents.

00:29:06.000 So what does that show you?

00:29:07.000 It shows you with now empirical data that there is a sizable portion of the American population that is saying we hate white people.

00:29:21.000 That is what the data is showing us.

00:29:24.000 And they also think they're not being racist by saying that.

00:29:30.000 Taught in colleges all across America, they are teaching that blacks have immunity from the sin of racism. 0.83

00:29:40.000 So Scott Adams, who is the founder of Dilbert and also a very smart man and a very, let's just say, deep thinker on a lot of different issues, came out and he said, based on this data, you could call blacks, quote, a hate group.

00:30:01.000 I think that probably goes too far, but here's what he's basically saying. 0.99

00:30:05.000 He's saying, based on this data, a portion of black Americans have hate to abolish and eliminate white people. 0.97

00:30:13.000 The essence of what he was saying is totally and completely true. 0.98

00:30:20.000 The campaign against Scott Adams has been overwhelming.

00:30:24.000 It has been aggressive, same with Woody Harrelson, to cancel him, to drop him, to ridicule him.

00:30:32.000 And let me just add one more thing to this.

00:30:34.000 I am exhausted talking about race all the time.

00:30:39.000 I do not think race is determinative or predictive of your behavior.

00:30:46.000 Values is what matters.

00:30:48.000 Your melanin content is irrelevant.

00:30:52.000 What they are trying to do is make race matter.

00:30:56.000 That is why you're seeing anti-white beliefs grow and metastasize.

00:31:03.000 If you read critical theory, in fact, we have a whistleblower here of somebody who is a student in Pennsylvania at a medical school where they are teaching medical students why it's wrong to believe in colorblindness.

00:31:21.000 They say colorblindness is actually racist.

00:31:25.000 Now, I never liked the term colorblindness because obviously you're not going to be blind to it, but you could be color agnostic.

00:31:32.000 It doesn't matter.

00:31:34.000 I don't have an opinion on you at all based on your skin color.

00:31:38.000 It is completely and totally irrelevant.

00:31:43.000 Now, this poll does show, though, that while it is irrelevant to me, it is not irrelevant to one out of four blacks.

00:31:51.000 And that is worth talking about.

00:31:53.000 That's worth asking a question.

00:31:56.000 It's worth asking the question: is there a growing anti-white sentiment?

00:32:01.000 If there was a poll of whites and one out of four whites said that it's not okay to be black, I would be disgusted by that.

00:32:11.000 I would be appalled.

00:32:13.000 I would say, why would white Americans, one out of four of them, say that?

00:32:17.000 We should try and build institutions that make color irrelevant. 0.96

00:32:22.000 Maybe we can't be colorblind, but we can pass colorblind laws, colorblind admission policies.

00:32:30.000 Your ideal should supersede sometimes the broken reality of the human being.

00:32:36.000 The ideal should be colorblindness.

00:32:39.000 The ideal should be when you apply for a job or apply to go to college.

00:32:42.000 It is completely irrelevant.

00:32:44.000 The melanin content.

00:32:46.000 It doesn't tell me anything about you.

00:32:49.000 Instead, we are going in the opposite direction and we're creating neo-segregation.

00:32:58.000 It's really a sad thing that we're seeing.

00:33:00.000 And Scott Adams mentioned it and noticed it, and they're trying to destroy his life without giving him a chance to clarify why he said this or why does he believe it.

00:33:13.000 Segregation, unfortunately, makes for very good politics for the Democrat Party. 0.99

00:33:18.000 They've always been focused on segregation-type politics. 0.67

00:33:24.000 It's sick. 0.99

00:33:24.000 It's disgusting. 0.99

00:33:25.000 This is why when I go to college campuses, some of the most viral content that I have ever put out is me asking college students who pretend to be anti-racist, do they believe in black-only dormitories? 0.96

00:33:43.000 And one after the other, they will enthusiastically support black-only dormitories. 0.99

00:33:50.000 The people that tell us that they are fighting against racism want to reinstitute segregation in our country.

00:33:57.000 One after the other.

00:33:58.000 If you are so against racism, do you think that black-only dormitories are wrong?

00:34:03.000 And they'll say there's nothing wrong with that.

00:34:06.000 Blacks need their own space to be able to flourish and think. 1.00

00:34:12.000 That's awfully racist, actually. 0.99

00:34:15.000 I have so many video after video after video.

00:34:17.000 I mean, we are through this topic every way you could possibly approach it.

00:34:24.000 University of Alabama to CU Boulder, I've heard it all.

00:34:28.000 And my worldview remains the same.

00:34:32.000 I refuse to live in a country or participate in any sort of political project where I am supposed to make a value judgment on somebody based on how they look.

00:34:46.000 No sort of academic jargon or nonsense can make me think otherwise.

00:34:51.000 Therefore, there needs to be a serious question asked: why is it that one in four blacks, 15 million people, think it's not okay to look the way that I look?

00:35:02.000 That's a serious question.

00:35:05.000 There's something seriously wrong.
