00:01:03.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:01:05.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:01:07.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:01:10.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:14.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:15.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:16.000 His spirit, his love of this country.
00:01:18.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:24.000 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.
00:01:33.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:36.000 Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:01:41.000 Go to andrewandtodd.com, the wonderfulandrewandodd.com.
00:01:48.000 This is an extraordinary story that I want to unpack with you.
00:01:52.000 Biden's global initiative to replace Christianity with atheism faces GOP backlash.
00:01:59.000 The 2021 federal grant program is designed to promote atheism and humanism overseas and encourage, quote, dissent from religious belief.
00:02:09.000 Joe Biden, of course, the Catholic that I put in quotes, wants to spread atheism.
00:02:15.000 I always laugh when I hear this, which is, if atheism was true and you believed it, why would you want others to also believe it?
00:02:23.000 You're an evangelistic atheist.
00:02:24.000 That's really dark.
00:02:26.000 To help us unpack this is the courageous Congressman Jim Banks, who's pushing back against it.
00:02:32.000 Congressman, welcome to the program.
00:02:34.000 Be with you.
00:02:34.000 Thanks for having me.
00:02:35.000 So this is hard to believe.
00:02:37.000 Walk us through the specifics of this in some detail.
00:02:40.000 The Biden administration's Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, they have a Bureau of Democracy and Human Rights.
00:02:47.000 They're promoting atheism and humanism worldwide.
00:02:50.000 Walk us through this.
00:02:52.000 Yeah, this is really crazy.
00:02:53.000 So in April of 2021, the Biden State Department under Secretary Blinken announced a competitive process that would award grants of up to a half a million dollars to organizations that are committed to the practice of spreading atheism or humanism, especially in South and Central Asia, Middle East, and North Africa.
00:03:15.000 So my letter to the administration demands to know who benefited from these grants.
00:03:20.000 Who did they give these grants away to?
00:03:23.000 And what are the specific countries where we are funding atheism?
00:03:27.000 I've got to believe there's more than meets the eye here.
00:03:30.000 It's crazy that we would do this to begin with, but what are the reasons why that the administration has to support?
00:03:36.000 Yeah, I got to ask, can you just fill me in?
00:03:38.000 How do you fund atheism exactly?
00:03:41.000 Is there like the international clerical body of atheism?
00:03:45.000 I mean, how do you fund atheism?
00:03:47.000 Yeah, we want to know, right?
00:03:49.000 I mean, I'm demanding to know as a congressman, as a representative, using the authority that I have to demand answers from the administration.
00:03:57.000 Explain it to us.
00:03:58.000 Show us the grants that you awarded to spread atheism in foreign countries.
00:04:03.000 Now, you and I both know at the same time, Charlie, the double standard here is very rich to me.
00:04:09.000 If we were funding grants to spread Christianity around the world, the left would be howling about it.
00:04:14.000 Yep.
00:04:15.000 They would call it a violation of the First Amendment if we did that at home or abroad.
00:04:21.000 So, what is the justification to award these grants to begin with?
00:04:24.000 Who did they give them away to?
00:04:25.000 I want to see the RFPs from the organizations that provided, that they provided the State Department that warranted giving them a half a million dollars to spread atheism.
00:04:37.000 Well, it's so sick because South American and Central American countries are actually very religious and very Catholic.
00:04:44.000 So, they're going into religious countries with almost missionary fervor to go and try to make these countries less religious.
00:04:54.000 And again, there is no separation of church and state.
00:04:57.000 It's a fabrication.
00:04:58.000 It's a fiction.
00:04:58.000 It's not in the Constitution.
00:04:59.000 It's made up by secular humanists.
00:05:01.000 It's derived from a single letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury Baptist Convention.
00:05:05.000 Of course, we should have church and state mixed together.
00:05:07.000 Our founding fathers believed in that.
00:05:09.000 We can go through the details of that.
00:05:10.000 They established literally a church in Congress.
00:05:14.000 Anyway, separate issue.
00:05:15.000 The point, though, is that this is acting like a religion, though, isn't it?
00:05:20.000 If we live by their own false premise of separation of church and state, then why on earth and how on earth would they want to go bring this belief to other countries?
00:05:30.000 I mean, they're almost kind of as if it was the 1400s and they're sending missionaries to the new world filled with despotic, nihilistic atheism and humanism.
00:05:41.000 I mean, what's the thought process behind this?
00:05:44.000 Well, you're right about the Catholic populations of these countries.
00:05:47.000 There are also Muslims in these countries.
00:05:49.000 So, what other groups does the Biden administration want to convert?
00:05:53.000 I mean, why not Catholics in Ireland?
00:05:56.000 Why not Buddhists and Tibet Christians in China?
00:06:00.000 It seems to me that when we find stories like this, examples like these from the Biden administration, we always seem to learn and find out more that they're always perfectly aligned with our biggest enemy, our greatest adversary, and that being China.
00:06:15.000 And that's what, among many other things, is what bothers me the most with this administration and supporting grants like this to spread humanism and atheism in some of these countries where China is going to benefit the most.
00:06:29.000 Yeah, and I mean, China kind of has built a whole regime around secular humanism and atheism, right?
00:06:34.000 Where there's nothing but power.
00:06:35.000 And I suppose that would make South American and Central American countries easier to control.
00:06:40.000 I mean, I'm trying to understand the thought process of this.
00:06:42.000 If I was really Machiavellian, if you were trying to export atheism, what would the potential kind of motive be here?
00:06:50.000 Besides the point that they believe in it as a centralized belief system, which again is so twisted and sick, which is let's go get more people to believe in nothing as if that's going to make the world a better place.
00:07:00.000 They really believe that.
00:07:01.000 But I guess if they can deconstruct kind of Catholic infrastructure in South America and Central America, is it conceivable that will make them easier to be compliant colonies for China?
00:07:13.000 I think you're onto something.
00:07:14.000 And I think the more layers that we peel back on this, that's probably what we're going to learn and find.
00:07:19.000 And at the same time, the Biden administration learns that these tactics work at home at the same time.
00:07:25.000 I mean, this is what we've come to expect from the left in our own country.
00:07:29.000 And when it comes to the State Department, we see so many examples of them echoing and repeating the tactics of the left right here at home, whether it's putting a Black Lives Matter flag up at the German embassy or a gay pride flag at the Vatican.
00:07:45.000 A special representative for racial equity and justice that they created at the State Department.
00:07:51.000 They're always working to remove restrictions on abortion around the globe.
00:07:55.000 So you see The State Department using these tactics that the left uses so effectively right here in the United States of America.
00:08:03.000 And this is the most important point when it comes to American foreign policy and American State Department policy, which is they want to spread their beliefs with kind of neoliberal enthusiasm to others.
00:08:17.000 It's not enough that they've just trying to wreck America.
00:08:20.000 They want every embassy to have a BLM flag, every embassy to have a gay pride flag.
00:08:24.000 They have to make other countries agree with them.
00:08:26.000 It's not enough that they believe it and they control 95% of San Francisco.
00:08:31.000 They need to make sure Alabama, Algeria, and Chile are also equally as secular and humanist and atheistic.
00:08:40.000 So, Congressman, I want to ask you in the couple minutes we have remaining, about a minute and a half remaining, a lot happening in Washington, D.C. What are the biggest legislative fights ahead of us, or is it just kind of going to be stalled heading into the fall?
00:08:53.000 What's on your radar?
00:08:54.000 What should our viewers know about that's really concerning you or motivating you towards action?
00:09:00.000 Well, for the Democrats, it's always a tactic of trying to distract you from what's really the focus of the American people.
00:09:09.000 And that's the show trials, the January 6th committee, and what they're trying to do.
00:09:14.000 I'm back in Northeast Indiana this week on a recess from Washington, which is always healthy.
00:09:20.000 And my constituents are desperate for leadership in Washington and focus on what they're focused on, which is higher gas prices and inflation, the drug epidemic.
00:09:30.000 I keep meeting moms who have lost a child to a drug overdose.
00:09:35.000 These are the issues that the American people care about, and yet Washington is obsessively focused on the January 6th show trials.
00:09:43.000 So I think we're going to keep seeing that leading up to the midterm.
00:09:46.000 But on Election Day, on that midterm election day, it's going to be a backlash against the lack of leadership and focus in Washington, probably unlike anything we've ever seen before, certainly in our lifetime.
00:09:58.000 I think you're right.
00:09:59.000 Congressman, thanks to the leadership.
00:10:00.000 Come back anytime.
00:10:01.000 Thank you so much.
00:10:02.000 Thank you.
00:10:02.000 Have a good day.
00:10:03.000 Thank you.
00:10:04.000 It's an important point.
00:10:05.000 If you believe in nothing and you believe there is no God, why do you have to spread that to other countries?
00:10:11.000 Maybe because it makes people easier to control.
00:10:14.000 Maybe because if you deconstruct Catholic infrastructure in Central and South America, it makes them more willing to worship government and not God.
00:10:23.000 And it makes the CCP job of making South and Central America into a CCP client state that much easier.
00:10:31.000 Something to think about.
00:10:32.000 They've done it in this country very successfully.
00:10:34.000 They have made certain states less religious than more religious.
00:10:37.000 It hasn't happened everywhere yet, thankfully.
00:10:42.000 Look, over the years, you've probably tried different investments in stocks and mutual funds.
00:10:46.000 So now you know they could be up or down or all over the place.
00:10:49.000 But with inflation running at 8.5%, probably even higher than that, the highest rate for 40 years, do you need uncertainty?
00:10:56.000 Being able to sleep at night knowing your investments aren't about to crash, it's worth its weight in gold.
00:11:00.000 And speaking of gold, if you've been jumping from one investment idea to the next, a gold IRA with Noble Gold is perfect.

00:11:36.000 Own things you can touch at noblegoldinvestments.com.
00:11:44.000 Seems that we hit, we struck a chord yesterday and totally non-coordinated.
00:11:50.000 Tucker Carlson said very similar to what we did yesterday, which is we need a nationwide moratorium or just a pause on what the heck is going on on the over-prescription of psychiatric drugs to children.
00:12:04.000 What is for an eight, nine, and ten-year-old, do they really need to be on Ritalin?
00:12:09.000 Do they really need to be on Zoloft?
00:12:11.000 Do they really need to be on benzodiazepans?
00:12:13.000 A nine-year-old that says they're depressed, really?
00:12:17.000 And what are the long-term neurological effects and impact and damages that could potentially be done?
00:12:25.000 And we got an overwhelming amount of emails from you, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:12:29.000 Again, and I just want to reiterate this point.
00:12:31.000 And no one emailed us, not one person that struck this, that got that received this sentiment.
00:12:38.000 I'm not accusing anybody or making you feel bad or attacking you if you're on these drugs.
00:12:43.000 It very well might be working for you.
00:12:44.000 Okay, I'm asking about children, neurological development, and the over-prescription and the misdiagnosis problem.
00:12:52.000 That's what I'm arguing.
00:12:54.000 And how children who we know grow out of whatever issues they're having at that particular age, why would we push these interventions that have black box warnings on them, by the way?
00:13:06.000 You could read them yourself.
00:13:08.000 And so if maybe you want to say, hey, I want to, you know, have my children go on SSRIs, which is basically a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, which increases serotonin, which is used for depressive disorders and anxiety disorders.
00:13:30.000 How many doctors or pharmacists are also saying that, hey, did you know in 2004 the FDA placed a black box warning on SSRIs indicating that they might have suicidal or homicidal ideation and violence?
00:13:46.000 That's on the drugs themselves, a black box warning.
00:13:51.000 And there might be a relationship between SSRIs and homicidal and suicidal ideation.
00:13:57.000 In fact, there's been clinical data to show it might increase it in some people.
00:14:01.000 In some people, it decreases it.
00:14:03.000 Okay.
00:14:04.000 And look, we have to stop pressing Adderall and Ritalin on kids just because they're hyper or because they're restless.
00:14:13.000 Of course they're hyper.
00:14:15.000 They're 10 years old.
00:14:18.000 Okay, Tucker Carlson had a beautiful monologue on this, and you just got to hat tip it when the masters hit it perfectly.
00:14:25.000 Play cut 29.
00:14:27.000 People aren't themselves?
00:14:28.000 They're taking drugs that appear to be causing the behavior the drugs are designed to prevent?
00:14:33.000 Why don't they talk about this on TV?
00:14:35.000 Oh, let's see.
00:14:37.000 In 2020, the pharmaceutical industry spent more than $4.5 billion advertising on national television in this country.
00:14:44.000 Now, how much is that?
00:14:45.000 Well, to put it in some context, Pfizer spent more on advertising in 2020 than it did on research and development.
00:14:53.000 Oh, it's all brought to you by Pfizer.
00:14:56.000 No, why is that?
00:14:57.000 Because TV channels don't prescribe drugs.
00:15:02.000 Doctors do.
00:15:04.000 So why would Pfizer, a drug company, be advertising on television?
00:15:09.000 We are an over-medicated nation.
00:15:13.000 For years, I've struggled with this when I was more puritanically free market.
00:15:20.000 When I said, oh, yeah, drug companies should be able to advertise on TV.
00:15:23.000 Let's think deeply about this.
00:15:24.000 Why do drug companies need to advertise on TV?
00:15:28.000 If you need them, then wouldn't your doctor know about it and administer it to you?
00:15:32.000 Why do you need those kind of weird, generic commercials of people running through a meadow saying you can be yourself?
00:15:39.000 You ever pause those commercials and read the bottom of them?
00:15:42.000 Could cause heart attacks, swelling, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, blurring of vision, constipation, internal bleeding, menstrual cycle disruption.
00:15:51.000 Oh, really, you put it that way.
00:15:55.000 The commercials for prescription drugs, by the way, they don't exist in Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, Mexico, or Australia.
00:16:02.000 Only in the United States and New Zealand are they able to advertise on television.
00:16:08.000 And look, I'm sure some of you listening have been blessed to have certain pharmaceutical interventions.
00:16:16.000 I know for certain when it comes to diabetes or Lyme disease and multiple other things.
00:16:22.000 That's not an exhaustive list.
00:16:23.000 That's not my point.
00:16:25.000 My point is that largely we are over-medicated.
00:16:28.000 And I know from my own personal experience and in my circle of family and friends, what sometimes can be solved by healthy living, diet changes, sleep change, spiritual alignment getting figured out, and homeopathic or naturopathic interventions, 90% of what otherwise would just be pill-pushed could be solved to those other things.
00:16:48.000 Now, of course, there's the blood pressure medication.
00:16:50.000 There's all sorts of things that you might need, you know, the brilliant pharmaceutical interventions for, of course.
00:16:56.000 But are we over medicated?
00:16:57.000 Yes.
00:16:58.000 And what is the consequence of that?
00:16:59.000 It's severe.
00:17:01.000 And especially when it comes to our children.
00:17:02.000 That's my main focus.
00:17:04.000 When you have millions of kids on psychiatric drugs, that's bad for society, period.
00:17:11.000 I would love to hear one Republican say that.
00:17:16.000 How many years have I been telling you about Relief Factor?
00:17:18.000 Producer Andrew's right here doing an Iron Man thanks to Relief Factor.
00:17:21.000 And truth is, I know there are millions of people.
00:17:23.000 In fact, some say over 100 million people struggling with some kind of pain, maybe from exercise or just getting older.
00:17:28.000 That can do it, getting older, which is why I'm so impressed with the people at relieffactor.com.

00:17:42.000 And I believe they'll do it.

00:18:13.000 Darren Beattie joins us from Revolver.news.
00:18:15.000 It's a website all of you should bookmark and maybe make your homepage, revolver.news.
00:18:20.000 Darren, welcome back to the program.
00:18:22.000 You have some news to share of some reporting you've been doing on Title IX.
00:18:26.000 Walk us through that.
00:18:27.000 Yes, we've got a big piece coming up shortly by this afternoon, no later than eight o'clock.
00:18:35.000 And it's on Title IX, which many of the audience might remember.
00:18:40.000 Obama kind of made it famous, or shall we say, infamous.
00:18:43.000 What it is, technically, is a law is a regulation going back to the 70s, which effectively bans sex discrimination on college campuses and attaches that to federal funding.
00:18:58.000 But just like most things pertaining to civil rights, it's gone way beyond the original contours of any kind of rational understanding of what that could mean.
00:19:08.000 And in fact, the Title IX interpretation and implementation has been behind many of the most shocking and abhorrent cases of discrimination against men on college campuses for alleged sexual offenses.
00:19:24.000 All of the stories you hear about these Kafka-esque, really Orwellian type kangaroo courts set up within universities to address alleged sexual assault by men.
00:19:39.000 You can thank Title IX for that.
00:19:41.000 Now, Trump nobly and admirably got rid of that particular implementation of Title IX.
00:19:50.000 But now Biden is set to re-implement Title IX plus.
00:19:55.000 And some of the additional party favors that Biden is going to offer young college students is that now misgendering will be considered a Title IX violation, among other things.
00:20:07.000 And so the Revolver.news report that's going to come up later this afternoon will give a bit of more comprehensive background on Title IX and its implementation and go through some of the most infamous and egregious cases of Title IX going back to the Obama administration just to give people a concrete and contextual sense of how these abuses are put into action.
00:20:37.000 That's extraordinary.
00:20:38.000 And this is happening largely in the background and in the shadows, if I'm not mistaken, right?
00:20:44.000 Yes, yes, in a quite literal sense.
00:20:49.000 Among the conditions attached to the Title IX provisions is that if you're a man, you're accused of some kind of, say, sexual assault, sexual harassment, you're not even able to look directly at the evidence against you.
00:21:07.000 There's a third party who will give you a kind of redacted version of the evidence against you.
00:21:13.000 You're not allowed to really defend yourself in any capacity.
00:21:18.000 It's a real kangaroo court kind of situation.
00:21:21.000 And of course, the standard of proof, the burden of evidence called the preponderance of evidence standards.
00:21:26.000 So if there's a 50.0001 chance that you might be guilty, according to these activist administrators at the universities who have funding on the line for these decisions, if they determine that you're 50.0001% likely to have done whatever it is that your accuser that you don't even have the right to face accuses you of, you're done.
00:21:52.000 And not only you're done at the university, but in many cases, your life is over.
00:21:57.000 The stigma attached to being an offender in that capacity, because in any reasonable person's interpretation, it's a horrible thing to be guilty of such offenses.
00:22:07.000 But the definition is stretched to the point where basically any ordinary man could get caught up in a false accusation and have his life ruined.
00:22:16.000 And there have been many cases of this happening.
00:22:18.000 Yes.
00:22:18.000 So here's my question, though.
00:22:21.000 How does this combine with the alphabet mafia that can't tell you what a woman is?
00:22:26.000 How can you have Title IX while also having a transient definition, an undefinable definition of what a woman actually is?
00:22:35.000 How do those two things possibly coexist?
00:22:39.000 That's a great question.
00:22:40.000 And there's a bit of a kind of Schrodinger element of it.
00:22:44.000 You don't know there's a state of kind of quantum suspension with respect to what the gender is or when or when these nuances become relevant or not.
00:22:56.000 And you see it in the abortion debate too.
00:23:01.000 People who are in one side of their mouth saying, oh, we don't know what a woman is in the context of the abortion and they say, oh, abortion is a woman's right.
00:23:10.000 And so it's one of these things that is just an effect of probably psychological compartmentalization.
00:23:17.000 And it seems inconsistent when you leave out the fact that it's always going against certain, it's always who, whom, us, them.
00:23:26.000 And the dividing line is, I think, pretty clearly delineated when you look at it in terms of these polarized camps.
00:23:36.000 But it's a very important distinction to be made because in some of the cases that we cover in the Revolver.news piece, you have cases where the man and the woman are both drunk and they have consensual relations, both being inebriated, and the man is found guilty of sexual assault for that and kicked out of college with the scarlet letter on his forehead.
00:24:03.000 And so, you know, I suppose the only available defense to a man in that situation is to identify as a woman.
00:24:12.000 I just don't know.
00:24:13.000 But the whole thing is not only ridiculous, but very dangerous for young men attending college these days.
00:24:19.000 Yeah, I mean, if we were ever to get an opportunity, and this is something that Marsha Blackburn, I think, stumbled into, and Matt Walsh did a whole film on it.
00:24:28.000 Let's ask the head of the Department of Education, whatever his name is.
00:24:32.000 I can never remember.
00:24:32.000 Is it Becerra?
00:24:34.000 I got all the thugs confused.
00:24:36.000 What is a woman?
00:24:38.000 And so it's kind of very fundamental to the whole idea of Title IX, right?
00:24:41.000 Which is this is a woman and this is a man.
00:24:44.000 So they're trying to reinstitute this while also not being able to say definitions.
00:24:49.000 They say, Gretchen Whitmer, Miguel Cardona.
00:24:53.000 Thank you.
00:24:53.000 That's the head of the Department of Education.
00:24:55.000 Gretchen Whitmer had that extraordinary clip a couple of weeks ago where she did everything she possibly could not to say the word woman, right?
00:25:01.000 She said birthing people or menstruating individuals.
00:25:06.000 And so I just find it so interesting because when Title IX was created in 1972 as an amendment of the Higher Education Act and as an education amendment, there was at least an agreement of what a woman was, right?
00:25:19.000 I mean, at least there was some understanding of sex differences.
00:25:22.000 Now it's just all up for grabs.
00:25:25.000 Right.
00:25:26.000 I mean, certainly the transgender craze certainly throws a wrench into it and perhaps complicates certain applications of Title IX because it sort of restructures the hierarchy of victimhood, according to which, you know, under Obama, when the transgender stuff wasn't really into high gear to the point that it is now,
00:25:56.000 most of the egregious cases associated with Title IX were along the lines that I've described of men being falsely accused by women and having their lives ruined.
00:26:09.000 Now, the very fact that the man and woman are sort of complicated categories, supposedly, who knows what kind of innovations might stem from that.
00:26:20.000 But I think we can be fairly confident that whatever those are, they will simply further serve to imiserate and undermine the position of healthy, normal, and well-functioning people on college campuses.
00:26:38.000 And in fact, the few cases we identified in which women were targeted by Title IX were cases in which the women dared to point out the misapplication and the abuses behind sexual harassment trials on college campuses.
00:26:57.000 So I want to shift gears here, Darren, for a second.
00:27:00.000 You have the story all over Revolver.news.
00:27:02.000 It's just extraordinary that the Wall Street Journal wrote this, and it should be the number one story, I think, for parents across the country.
00:27:12.000 It's so incredibly important.
00:27:13.000 And it's a Wall Street Journal piece that says, why the rush for toddler vaccines?
00:27:18.000 And it goes to say that, quote, this is from the Wall Street Journal piece, that most kids who developed multiple infections during the trial were vaccinated.
00:27:30.000 And it said that vaccinated toddlers in Pfizer's trial were more likely to get severely ill with COVID than those who received the placebo.
00:27:38.000 Talk about this, Darren.
00:27:39.000 We'll talk about it also after the break, about a minute remaining.
00:27:42.000 Yeah, it's really remarkable.
00:27:44.000 You know, I'm not a medical professional, so I can't fully speak to the details, but just my intuitive sense is the risk profile of a potentially unnecessary vaccine for toddlers that hasn't been robustly tested and that doesn't even seem to provide the protection that would be worth it.
00:28:06.000 It would be one thing if it provided protection.
00:28:09.000 It would be another thing if actually toddlers were suffering and dying from COVID in appreciable numbers.
00:28:18.000 But none of these things seem to be the case.
00:28:20.000 And so they're just expecting parents to subject their toddlers to this experiment that shows no sign of being worth it, shows no sign of really meeting up to any kind of sensible cost-benefit analysis.
00:28:39.000 So it's very disturbing, but it's encouraging to see that there's genuine pushback to this.
00:28:45.000 And it doesn't seem like the whole vaccinating toddlers for COVID push has been really that successful.
00:28:56.000 I want to talk about this story.
00:28:57.000 Why is the IRS armed to the teeth?
00:29:00.000 I know you've been covering this story.
00:29:01.000 Why is it that our federal bureaucracies are buying up so much ammunition?
00:29:05.000 You know, that's a remarkable question.
00:29:07.000 And, you know, it's hard to answer.
00:29:11.000 It's an extremely bizarre thing.
00:29:13.000 And the great Congressman Gates is trying to get to the bottom of this and actually put a stop to it, which I commend him.
00:29:21.000 But it's one of these things.
00:29:24.000 The IRS is also, for good reason, probably one of the most feared government agencies.
00:29:31.000 They have special powers, special authorities.
00:29:36.000 And for them to be accumulating this much ammunition is, well, it's disconcerting to say that.
00:29:46.000 What is the explanation that they give?
00:29:49.000 You know, I don't know.
00:29:50.000 I don't know what possible explanation they can have.
00:29:53.000 I suppose some of these agencies have armed divisions that they can use that most of the public don't know about, but I'm not sure what the official explanation is for accumulating this much ammunition.
00:30:11.000 I'm not suggesting anything diabolical or conspiratorial.
00:30:16.000 My sense is it's just a case of government hoarding.
00:30:20.000 They buy it up because they can and they have unlimited budgets.
00:30:24.000 And why wouldn't they?
00:30:27.000 So, Darren, this is an interesting one.
00:30:28.000 By the way, for those of you that haven't gone to revolver.news, it is kind of like what Drudge Report used to be.
00:30:34.000 And please take that as a compliment, Darren, where it's just the kind of an aggregation, but also original reporting.
00:30:39.000 So it's different in that sense.
00:30:41.000 What is so the rise of the far right, Latina?
00:30:44.000 Who did this reporting?
00:30:45.000 Was this the Associated Press story or is this?
00:30:48.000 I believe so.
00:30:50.000 It's been making the rounds.
00:30:53.000 And it's just covering a very special phenomenon that we've seen in recent elections.
00:30:59.000 And there's been this big push to broaden the tent within the right.
00:31:08.000 And the big kind of counterintuitive aspect of this is that you broaden the tent just by doubling down on solid, kind of conservative right-wing principles that everyone else likes.
00:31:20.000 It doesn't even require special pandering.
00:31:24.000 And it's so easy to be sensible and appealing these days just because, you know, it doesn't, it doesn't take, it's not a hard sell to say, okay, we don't buy into this weird transgender stuff.
00:31:36.000 It's not a hard sell to say that we don't support movements like Black Lives Matter that are, you know, destroying cities.
00:31:43.000 It's not a hard sell to say that we'd like to keep cities under control and get crime under control or a wide range of things.
00:31:51.000 It's just these appeal to sensible people across religious lines, across ethnic lines, and so forth.
00:32:01.000 And you're seeing a big surge in this amongst certain Latino populations.
00:32:08.000 You see it in Texas, which is the subject of this particular article, but you also see it in a especially pronounced way, I think, in Florida.
00:32:19.000 And so it's one of those kind of special counterintuitive phenomena that you see that's concurrent with the Trump phenomenon.
00:32:31.000 You know, Trump, the person that everyone said, oh, it's this immigrant hater and hated Hispanics, whatever.
00:32:39.000 He's actually surprisingly popular with Hispanics because again, it's not an issue of pandering.
00:32:45.000 It's simply an issue of things that any sensible person who is in America would want.
00:32:51.000 You want safe streets.
00:32:52.000 You don't want your children to be protected from weird sexual perversions being foisted on them for various reasons.
00:33:04.000 And so I think that sell is starting to really drive home in certain demographics.
00:33:11.000 And this is a product of that.
00:33:13.000 Yeah.
00:33:13.000 And it's really interesting how the white liberal journalists find this to be such a far-right phenomenon that people might believe in God, family, country, two genders, borders, and own guns.
00:33:23.000 And I'll tell you that I think the Hispanic community is going to surprise people totally and completely.
00:33:29.000 I think it's going to become a far, a solidly conservative voting bloc.
00:33:36.000 And the more they write these articles, the more it only kind of proves that entire point.
