00:00:26.000 Hey, everybody, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:00:29.000 Charlie's coming back tomorrow, but we have one more day of analysis for you.

00:00:34.000 Today we talk about Israel.

00:00:35.000 We talk about Hamas and we talk about the shills over at the AP claiming that they did not know Hamas was shooting rockets from their building and had a weapons manufacturing site in the building where the AP and Al Jazeera are located in Hamas. 0.95

00:00:51.000 Turns out they're a bunch of liars.

00:00:53.000 The media, my friends, is getting revealed in an all new, devastating way. 0.93

00:00:58.000 We have that as well as prediction true.

00:01:02.000 Liberal minds exploded because the CDC is changing mass mandates and we have some fun with that.

00:01:37.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:01:39.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:01:41.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:01:44.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:47.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:48.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:49.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:01:51.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:01:56.000 Turning point USA.

00:01:58.000 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.

00:02:07.000 That's why we are here.

00:02:09.000 Folks, there's a lot going on today.

00:02:12.000 There really is.

00:02:13.000 Over the weekend, a lot of us were paying attention to the news reports that were coming out of Israel.

00:02:19.000 Now, I want to lead with Israel just because I have, you know, honestly, there's a part of me that is tempted not to.

00:02:27.000 It's another country.

00:02:28.000 It's far away.

00:02:29.000 We've got a lot of problems going here over here.

00:02:31.000 Joe Biden's trying to take over the country.

00:02:33.000 The far leftists are working him over, pushing him into a corner.

00:02:37.000 I want to talk about that, and we will in this show, but I was so offended over the weekend with the approach that the news media is taking with Israel that I just had to talk about it today.

00:02:47.000 I'm so irritated.

00:02:49.000 I kept getting these push notifications coming on my phone as I was trying to enjoy my family and going on walks and got NBC and CNN sending me push notifications.

00:02:57.000 Yes, I do get the push notifications from them, so you don't have to.

00:03:00.000 Rest assured, it's for you.

00:03:02.000 It's so you guys don't have to pay attention to it.

00:03:04.000 I'm on the game here.

00:03:05.000 I'm on the ball.

00:03:06.000 And basically, the narrative goes like this every single time.

00:03:10.000 I get a push notification from NBC.

00:03:12.000 It says, Israel fires rockets, killing civilians in the Gaza Strip as tensions in the Middle East intensify.

00:03:20.000 Okay, well, what about what Hamas did?

00:03:24.000 What about what the terrorists shot at Israel?

00:03:27.000 Now, here's the deal.

00:03:31.000 We're entering into the second week of this conflict.

00:03:33.000 The narrative is always the same script in the news media, especially the left-leaning news media.

00:03:39.000 Hamas fires rockets at Israel cities.

00:03:41.000 Israel retaliates.

00:03:43.000 And then guess what?

00:03:44.000 They blame Israel for defending itself.

00:03:47.000 Now, I spoke about it with Dr. Gorka, and we had this a little bit of a back and forth.

00:03:52.000 I wouldn't say it was a full disagreement.

00:03:54.000 Was a moment of trying to lay out our own perspective on things.

00:04:00.000 And I simply was saying that there is a little bit of pushback, especially when it comes to younger conservatives wondering why we support Israel, why we should be supporting Israel.

00:04:13.000 And I gave a little bit of a hat tip to Joe Biden and saying at least he has not succumbed to the far left wing, mostly young people, by the way, that hate Israel, that call Israel an apartheid state.

00:04:25.000 And Joe Biden has essentially, listen, there's a lot to blame here.

00:04:29.000 Joe Biden has inflamed the entire situation in the Middle East.

00:04:32.000 He's failed to stand strongly behind Israel, which adds stability in the region.

00:04:37.000 Okay, so his failure to do so is what has led to a lot of this, in my opinion.

00:04:42.000 And I think a lot of policy experts agree.

00:04:45.000 But what I will say is that at least he's saying that Israel has a right to defend itself, which is more than what the far left of his party is willing to say at all.

00:04:55.000 They think that Israel should be wiped off the map.

00:04:57.000 Look at Rashida Tlaib.

00:04:58.000 She's got that poster of Israel in her office with a picture over Israel and it says Palestine.

00:05:04.000 You got Corey Bush.

00:05:06.000 By the way, I was talking about this with producer Connor before the show today.

00:05:09.000 Corey Bush is not technically part of the squad, but she is just as awful, if not more so, than the squad.

00:05:16.000 So she's trying to make a name for herself as another radical here, okay?

00:05:20.000 So don't take your eyes off Corey Bush. 0.53

00:05:22.000 She's a radical. 1.00

00:05:23.000 She says the most disgusting things and totally gets away with it. 0.89

00:05:29.000 But at least the Biden administration is saying that Israel has the right to defend itself.

00:05:35.000 Now, the big story that has come out over the weekend is that Israel was their intelligence was indicating that there was attacks coming from a certain building in Gaza.

00:05:47.000 Now, it turned out that that building was occupied by the Associated Press in Al Jazeera, as well as Hamas.

00:05:58.000 So, Israel gave a warning to the Associated Press, gave a warning to everybody, get out of that building.

00:06:04.000 Hamas is using it to fling rockets at Israel.

00:06:08.000 So, you need to get out and you need to stay as far away from that because we're coming after it.

00:06:14.000 Certainly, that was true because within a few, I think it was about 90 minutes heads up they gave, they started shooting at this building.

00:06:25.000 They toppled it.

00:06:27.000 And then the Associated Press had the gall afterwards to say that it had no idea that Hamas militants were in that same building.

00:06:37.000 They had had this building for 15 years.

00:06:39.000 Now, there's a story from the New York Post that says the Associated Press slammed for claim.

00:06:47.000 It was unaware Hamas was in the building.

00:06:49.000 What's really interesting is that, and so let me just read you, by the way, I think it's worth reading.

00:06:54.000 It says, this is the AP president and CEO Gary Pruitt said in a statement, we have had no indication Hamas was in the building or active in the building.

00:07:02.000 This is something we actively check to the best of our ability.

00:07:06.000 We would never knowingly put our journalists at risk.

00:07:10.000 He was shocked and horrified that the Israeli military would target and destroy the building housing AP Bureau and other news organizations in Gaza.

00:07:18.000 But here's the kicker.

00:07:19.000 According to the New York Post, in a 2014 article in the Atlantic, written by a journalist in the region, described the history between the news agency and Hamas.

00:07:28.000 And critics, so critics took to social media calling them out, calling Pruitt's assertion out that he didn't know because this article in the Atlantic clearly outlined that they had a very close working relationship with Hamas.

00:07:41.000 Now, part of this, I wouldn't blame them, right?

00:07:44.000 I wouldn't blame the Associated Press for working with Hamas because it's a news story.

00:07:48.000 It's covered internationally, gets a lot of clicks, lots of headlines.

00:07:52.000 They should have inroads with Hamas to get that sort of information.

00:07:58.000 But the interesting part is that an organization like this would obviously know that Hamas was in the building.

00:08:06.000 As a matter of fact, it's probably, now I'm speculating here to some level, but it's probably true that they knew that Hamas was in this building because they'd been working and sourcing Hamas and they are not giving up their sources.

00:08:23.000 And now once their building gets toppled, there's a lot of, and here's the other thing you have to understand.

00:08:29.000 There's a lot of sympathy for Hamas within the international journalistic core.

00:08:37.000 They look at the Palestinians the same way Corey Bush and Rashida Tlaib look at the Palestinians as the victims of the apartheid state in Israel.

00:08:48.000 So I believe that the AP News story is the AP News Bureau here is lying.

00:08:56.000 You've got Noah Pollock, a contributor to the Free Beacon.

00:08:58.000 He said a tweet, spoke to a well-placed friend in the IDF just now.

00:09:02.000 The bombed AP office building contained multiple Hamas operations and offices, including weapons manufacturing and military intelligence.

00:09:10.000 The building also housed an Islamic jihad office.

00:09:14.000 And AP local reporters knew about it.

00:09:20.000 So what's the big takeaway from this story?

00:09:23.000 Is that we have to see through the media headlines in the spin and the gaslighting.

00:09:30.000 This is the AP getting called out on the international stage as a bunch of liars, as hacks.

00:09:35.000 They knew that they were sharing a building with Hamas, but what's really getting revealed here is that they have been in bed with Hamas since the very beginning.

00:09:43.000 So when you see headlines of a bunch of terrorists shooting at Israel and then Israel defending itself and somehow that being Israel's problem and their fault, just remember who's telling you this.

00:09:55.000 Don't believe everything you read, folks.

00:09:58.000 The AP was in on this and they knew it and they got caught out by an Israeli missile that took down their office building.

00:10:06.000 Look, I want to tell you about Tommy John.

00:10:08.000 One word that you have to remember about Tommy John.

00:10:10.000 This is it.

00:10:11.000 Comfort.

00:10:12.000 That's it.

00:10:13.000 It's comfortable.

00:10:15.000 They don't have customers.

00:10:16.000 They have fanatics.

00:10:17.000 In fact, I met a guy the other day.

00:10:18.000 He said, I'm a Tommy John fanatic.

00:10:19.000 It was actually incredible.

00:10:21.000 His eyes were open and he was so excited to talk to me about Tommy John.

00:10:25.000 And I said, my goodness, you should be selling this.

00:10:27.000 But anyway, they have over hundreds of thousands of fanatics.

00:10:30.000 In fact, who are 13 years and tens of thousands of five-star reviews called Tommy John the most comfortable underwear ever.

00:10:37.000 Because with dozens of comfort innovations, once you've tried Tommy John underwear, you're never going back.

00:11:14.000 See site for details.

00:11:17.000 We're talking about Israel.

00:11:19.000 And we're talking about the fact that the hacks in our news media have been called out and they've been found out multiple times in multiple ways.

00:11:30.000 And the latest is this situation in a building that was toppled. 0.63

00:11:38.000 It was razed by an Israeli missile because it was housing Hamas militants.

00:11:43.000 And this was in the Gaza Strip.

00:11:46.000 The AP denies Knowledge of this.

00:11:53.000 But back in 2014, former AP reporter Matt Friedman wrote in The Atlantic.

00:12:00.000 So it was actually a former AP reporter.

00:12:03.000 We're getting more information on this as we go.

00:12:05.000 On the relationship between Hamas and reporters in Gaza.

00:12:09.000 Friedman specifically notes how the AP dutifully reported Hamas's spin on the situation in Gaza to craft a narrative that Israel is an oppressive nation and Palestinians are innocent victims.

00:12:21.000 During my time at the AP, he writes, we helped Hamas get this point across with a school of reporting that might be classified as surprising signs of moderation.

00:12:31.000 A direct precursor to the Muslim Brotherhood is actually liberal school that enjoyed a brief vogue in Egypt.

00:12:36.000 In one of my favorite stories, More Tolerant Hamas, December 11, 2011, reporters quoted a Hamas spokesman informing readers that the movement's policy was that, quote, we are not going to dictate anything to anyone.

00:12:50.000 And another Hamas leader said the movement had, quote, learned it needs to be more tolerant of others.

00:12:56.000 Around the same time, I was informed by the Bureau's senior editors that our Palestinian reporter in Gaza couldn't possibly provide critical coverage of Hamas because doing so would put him in danger.

00:13:08.000 Okay, so AP gets their offices destroyed by an Israeli missile after being warned that they were going to do so, so they should evacuate, which they did. 0.92

00:13:18.000 But then they were like, this is incredible.

00:13:20.000 We had no knowledge of this.

00:13:22.000 Meanwhile, Maddie Friedman, an AP reporter, is basically spilling the beans here saying, no, AP, you had this cozy relationship where you would spin stories for Hamas, which is a terrorist organization, by trying to present them to the world as less extreme than they are and more moderate.

00:13:44.000 This is how it goes, folks.

00:13:46.000 And we had another story that came out of this over the weekend, which is just too good to pass up.

00:13:52.000 But again, these people tell you who they are.

00:13:55.000 We should believe them.

00:13:56.000 We should believe them when they tell you exactly who they are because it's quite obvious if you're paying attention. 0.81

00:14:02.000 So the headlines from the Hill, CNN fires Freelancer for tweet saying world today needs a Hitler. 0.82

00:14:08.000 So this report, I guess he's a contributor, but he's written multiple articles for CNN.

00:14:16.000 So if you do a quick search of this and people have dug this up, he's written multiple articles.

00:14:19.000 He's been on TV.

00:14:20.000 Adil Raja posted a tweet just before 1 p.m. on Sunday, according to the Washington Examiner, though the tweet had been deleted instantly.

00:14:27.000 He probably was getting calls from either the comms team at CNN or some friends going like, what the hell are you saying?

00:14:34.000 Adil Raja has never been a CNN employee, a CNN spokesman said Sunday when asked about the tweet.

00:14:39.000 As a freelancer, his reporting contributed to some news gathering efforts from Islamabad.

00:14:45.000 However, in light of these abhorrent statements, he will not be working with CNN again in any capacity.

00:14:51.000 Rajah could not be reached for comment.

00:14:53.000 Of course he couldn't.

00:14:54.000 So we've got screen grabs of this.

00:14:56.000 And by the way, guess what he was doing?

00:14:58.000 He was responding to a Mike Pence tweet saying America stands with Israel.

00:15:02.000 And then Adil Raja said a history of creating terrorists and standing with them is what he replied to Pence's tweet.

00:15:10.000 So it was actually a different tweet.

00:15:11.000 But then he said, the world today needs a Hitler. 0.89

00:15:14.000 Now, why is this relevant and important? 0.84

00:15:16.000 Well, of course, I mean, we've got this Israel standoff that's happening with Hamas in Gaza.

00:15:21.000 You've got AP saying, oh, we weren't in bed with Hamas.

00:15:24.000 We didn't know that they were taking over our, that they had weapons manufacturing going on in the building where we house our offices in Gaza.

00:15:33.000 And then it turns out that a 2014 story calls him on it. 0.97

00:15:38.000 And you've got CNN contributors basically saying that the Jewish people need to be exterminated. 0.97

00:15:44.000 Media is dead. 0.97

00:15:46.000 It's sources like this and other conservative voices that you can trust to get the real news.

00:15:52.000 All of this is just further proof of that.

00:17:13.000 We talked about Israel, and I'm going to change.

00:17:16.000 I'm going to change gears here in just a second, but I just want to make one last point before we do.

00:17:21.000 Bernie Sanders has this op-ed in the New York Times, which I just find genuinely infuriating. 0.53

00:17:27.000 Bernie Sanders, the U.S. must stop being an apologist for the Netanyahu government.

00:17:32.000 And what's sad about it is that other nations actually have given us this same dignity, if you will, where they would say, listen, what happens in America is their own domestic affairs. 0.64

00:17:47.000 When we interact with a nation, that's how it should be.

00:17:51.000 Our politics stop at the water's edge, right?

00:17:56.000 But it doesn't affect Bernie Sanders.

00:17:58.000 He's not leaving Israel alone.

00:18:00.000 He's calling balls and strikes and he's getting into the fray and basically saying that Netanyahu is a far-right, ethno-nationalist organization, and we can't stop apologizing for their actions.

00:18:15.000 Let me just state this very clearly. 0.50

00:18:17.000 There is no moral equivalency between Israel and Hamas.

00:18:21.000 There never has been.

00:18:23.000 There never will be.

00:18:25.000 There is no moral equivalency.

00:18:28.000 Okay, now we can debate about the U.S.'s role in Israel and how we conduct ourselves.

00:18:36.000 Should we be sending millions of dollars to Hamas? 0.98

00:18:38.000 I think that's a really fair question.

00:18:41.000 Of course, we shouldn't. 0.63

00:18:42.000 Should we be unfreezing Iranian assets in the region, which they will then funnel to Hamas to attack Israel? 0.58

00:18:48.000 Of course, we shouldn't. 0.73

00:18:49.000 But there is no moral equivalency, okay?

00:18:51.000 Let's just be very clear about it.

00:18:55.000 No moral equivalency.

00:18:57.000 Okay, I've said it, said it three or four times.

00:18:59.000 It needs to be said.

00:19:00.000 Do not be gaslit by these hacks, these people like the AP, by the way, that publishes a report and then it gets picked up internationally and all the news outlets.

00:19:09.000 And it says the AP reported.

00:19:10.000 And the reason they do that is because the AP is supposed to be a neutral reporting agency.

00:19:17.000 Well, turns out they are not.

00:19:21.000 Okay, moving on.

00:19:22.000 I want to talk about the CDC.

00:19:25.000 We hit this story pretty hard on Friday, but what I said was liberal heads are going to explode.

00:19:31.000 And we traced the sort of lineage of this story of the CDC rolling back their guidelines on masks.

00:19:40.000 They said, if you are vaccinated, then you are free to roam about the cabin without a mask.

00:19:48.000 You're free to get back to some of the things that you were doing before.

00:19:50.000 Now, I think if I'm just looking at this as a communications professional, I would tell you very clearly that they did fumble the ball here just communicating-wise.

00:20:05.000 But the issue here is not whether the science defends masks or does not.

00:20:15.000 The issue here is that we have been feeding a diet of COVID pandemic porn to the U.S. population for months.

00:20:25.000 They are freaked out.

00:20:26.000 They have cave dweller syndrome where they're basically agoraphobic and they don't want to come outside.

00:20:31.000 And then we're all surprised that when you actually tell them, hey, you can actually go back to normal if you get a vaccine, which let's get into that in just a second, which I think is a false choice.

00:20:42.000 They still don't like it.

00:20:44.000 But this was very interesting because the night before, I believe Dr. Walensky, the director of the CDC, was on Cuomo saying, we're going to be updating the guidelines very soon.

00:20:53.000 I'm so excited to tell you, but I can't quite tell you now.

00:20:56.000 And then sure enough, she does it, and liberal heads explode.

00:21:01.000 And all you have to do is do a quick, I mean, please don't do Google.

00:21:08.000 I don't recommend that to anybody.

00:21:11.000 But if you were going to just Google it, just Google CDC.

00:21:17.000 I think it's a pretty interesting thought exercise.

00:21:19.000 The news reports, experts are warning about the unintended consequences of the CDC mass guidance.

00:21:24.000 Essential workers raise concerns about CDC mass guidance.

00:21:29.000 CDC guidance startles America from CNN.

00:21:33.000 So it startles America.

00:21:36.000 And I want to play a little sound here.

00:21:39.000 So what's happened now is because of all the pushback from the liberal legacy media, Dr. Walensky, the CDC director, has had to go out into the media landscape again to defend her position.

00:21:53.000 Let's go ahead and play cut 10.

00:21:55.000 And this is Director Walensky saying that, you know, she's just following the science and she's going to tell it like it is.

00:22:03.000 Clip 10.

00:22:05.000 And I completely acknowledge that.

00:22:07.000 My job as the CDC director, which I promised the American people when I took it, is that I would deliver the science to them and our recommendations to them as we had it.

00:22:17.000 We had two studies that were published the week prior to last, a major study that was published in the MMWR on Friday that demonstrates that vaccinated people are safe.

00:22:28.000 So she's trying to point to the science and say, hey, listen, we're following the science.

00:22:36.000 But what's unfortunate is that we know that the CDC has been implicated now.

00:22:42.000 We have Freedom of Information Acts that accessed certain emails between the teachers' unions and the CDC that basically condemned them.

00:22:53.000 The teachers' union said, hey, well, why don't you put this language into your guidance for schools?

00:22:57.000 And what did they do?

00:22:58.000 They absolutely took their directions verbatim.

00:23:03.000 And they ended up making their way into the CDC's guidance for opening schools.

00:23:09.000 So we know that the CDC is not apolitical.

00:23:12.000 We know the CDC is very political.

00:23:14.000 And we also know that the teachers' unions funnel a lot of campaign dollars into the Democrat Party.

00:23:20.000 So on the one hand, I'm glad that the CDC is trying to open America back up.

00:23:27.000 And we do have some reports from retailers that are actually trying to ease restrictions on masks.

00:23:34.000 Target, Starbucks, and other retailers ease mask mandates for fully vaccinated customers.

00:23:40.000 So, this is from CNBC.

00:23:41.000 It says Starbucks and Target won't require fully vaccinated customers to wear masks inside stores, except when required by law.

00:23:47.000 Okay, so this is an interesting raises a bunch of questions.

00:23:52.000 You've got states like Washington, Oregon, California that all still have their mask mandates: New York, D.C., Connecticut, Rhode Island, basically everywhere you'd expect.

00:24:03.000 Illinois, and then you have these like throwaways like Ohio.

00:24:06.000 What the heck's Ohio doing?

00:24:08.000 I mean, Trump won that state by 10 points, eight points.

00:24:11.000 Get rid of your mask mandates, governor.

00:24:14.000 Got a real gem of a governor in that state.

00:24:18.000 So you've got this very confusing mixed messaging coming out from the CDC.

00:24:25.000 And, you know, funny enough, I saw this clip.

00:24:28.000 I just had to pull it.

00:24:29.000 This is Dr. Jerome Adams.

00:24:30.000 You might remember him.

00:24:32.000 He was the former U.S. Surgeon General during the Trump administration, and he was often out front in front of the cameras.

00:24:38.000 He went on CNN.

00:24:39.000 I don't know why, but he went on CNN to criticize his successors here.

00:24:44.000 So let's go ahead and play Dr. Jerome Adams.

00:24:47.000 I think this was an appropriate call based on the science.

00:24:50.000 The science is sound.

00:24:52.000 I think that the play call was right, but they fumbled the ball at the one-yard line in terms of communicating this to the public in terms of engagement.

00:25:00.000 So the left is very, very frightened that now all of these people who aren't vaccinated are going to be gallivanting around outside like normal people, like free Americans.

00:25:14.000 They're going to be gallivanting around, coughing and sneezing and touching things and living their lives, and they're not going to actually be vaccinated.

00:25:22.000 They're going to lie to you.

00:25:23.000 You're going to ask, are you vaccinated?

00:25:24.000 They say, yeah, of course I'm vaccinated.

00:25:27.000 But they're obviously not.

00:25:29.000 We know that I think it's about half of the country now, I think it's a little under half, has gotten at least one shot of the vaccine.

00:25:38.000 Now, we have always maintained on this show that we are vaccine agnostic.

00:25:44.000 If you want to get your vaccine, go ahead and get the vaccine.

00:25:47.000 If you don't want to get the vaccine, don't get the vaccine.

00:25:50.000 But what's underlying that principle is freedom.

00:25:53.000 The freedom of an American citizen to make their own decisions about their own health.

00:26:00.000 Now, what this rule guidance from the CDC does present is a conflict because the state is saying, the government is saying that you don't have to if you have this vaccine, but they haven't instituted a way to mandate it or verify the status.

00:26:23.000 But what we know has happened is that Joe Biden secretly behind the scenes has been coordinating with certain businesses to make sure that there is a tracking system in place.

00:26:33.000 Now, so where that's all going to land, we're not sure, but I think it's going to come down.

00:26:39.000 And I think there's a lot of evidence to show that it's going to come down in the private space.

00:26:42.000 So within businesses themselves.

00:26:44.000 So these companies like Target and Starbucks are saying that we're going to come out and we're going to start easing restrictions in the states where you can ease restriction.

00:26:54.000 Trader Joe's, Costco, Walmart.

00:26:59.000 All of these stores actually have mask-free shopping in certain states.

00:27:04.000 But other companies, which is a bit of a surprise, Home Depot are maintaining their pandemic precautions.

00:27:11.000 Gap.

00:27:14.000 So it's very surprising about Home Depot.

00:27:16.000 They should really get people need to send letters to Home Depot and get them to open up.

00:27:21.000 So what's going to happen is we're going to see this battle being waged in airports, on airplanes, any place where public transit is the way people are getting around.

00:27:36.000 This is where this battle is going to come to the fore.

00:27:38.000 So keep a look on it.

00:27:39.000 A little bit of resistance is not a bad thing.

00:27:43.000 Good trouble, I think I've heard it's called.

00:27:46.000 So folks, if you are out there in a municipality that requires masks, maybe just take it off and ask for forgiveness instead of permission because you are an American citizen.

00:27:58.000 You were born free.

00:27:59.000 The state cannot tell you what to do with a mask diaper on your face.

00:28:04.000 Charlie Kirk here, and I've warned you about home title theft, where cyber thieves remove you from your homes title and you become the owner.

00:28:11.000 Like I said, you better get home title lock because it's coming.

00:28:15.000 Well, if you are on Facebook, that big data breach is here.

00:28:19.000 Facebook has 500 million accounts that were exposed to cyber thieves.

00:28:23.000 And according to a retired FBI cyber crime expert, everything thieves need to take over as the new owner of your home was leaked.

00:28:29.000 Name, address, personal information, and more, it's out there.

00:28:31.000 The thief forges your signature on a quick claim deed stating you sold your home to him.

00:28:34.000 He'll leave you in debt or even have you evicted.

00:28:37.000 Do what I did and protect your homes title, hometitalock.com.

00:28:40.000 Go to hometitalock.com and register your address, see if you're already a victim.

00:28:43.000 Then sign up for 30 free days of protection during this high-risk breach.

00:28:46.000 Again, go to home titlelock.com, promo code radio.

00:28:49.000 That's hometitalock.com, promo code radio.

00:28:51.000 There's a lot of data out there.

00:28:52.000 There's a lot of things that you got to sort out right now.

00:28:54.000 So go to home titlelock.com.

00:28:57.000 Protect yourself, protect your family, protect your well-being at home titlelock.com, promo code radio.

00:29:07.000 Something broke this morning as I was prepping for the show that was pretty interesting.

00:29:11.000 I want to cover it just right here.

00:29:12.000 It's the Supreme Court will hear a major new abortion case.

00:29:18.000 This is causing a lot of waves because it's actually challenging Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that established a constitutional right to abortion, one that never existed before.

00:29:35.000 They sort of made it up out of whole cloth.

00:29:37.000 Nevertheless, they're saying that the court has a 6-3 majority, by the way.

00:29:42.000 It's definitely not true.

00:29:44.000 It's probably four and a half, four and a half with John Roberts, maybe five to four in certain instances.

00:29:52.000 But they're saying six to three conservative majority.

00:29:55.000 Now, the Mississippi law, which was blocked by the Fifth Circuit, actually said that we need to re-examine this viability question that was brought up that's been established by the courts.

00:30:10.000 So it's Dobbs versus Jackson Women's Health Organization.

00:30:16.000 And it asks whether all pre-viability restrictions on abortion are unconstitutional or not.

00:30:23.000 So fetal viability is typically at this point understood at 22 weeks or later.

00:30:28.000 Now, why that's even a bright line in the sand, I don't agree with it at all.

00:30:34.000 Okay?

00:30:37.000 But Mississippi is asking the justices to review the viability standard, arguing that the rule prevents states from defending maternal health and its interest in protecting life.

00:30:49.000 This is a brief filed with the justices.

00:30:51.000 It reads, it is well past time for the court to revisit the wisdom of the viability bright line rule.

00:30:57.000 That's Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Finch.

00:31:03.000 So if you do a quick scan on the liberal Twitter sphere, this is Elise Hoag breaking SCODIS to hear direct challenge to Roe v. Wade.

00:31:18.000 Never forget that McConnell and others mocked us and gaslit us through the Kavanaugh fight for claiming that legal abortion was in jeopardy.

00:31:26.000 They knew they lied.

00:31:28.000 We knew we fought.

00:31:29.000 And we're so far from done fighting.

00:31:35.000 So They're not happy about this.

00:31:38.000 Nevertheless, the court is going to hear it.

00:31:40.000 And what it is, is it's trying to say, is 22 weeks, should it be the standard still?

00:31:48.000 The Mississippi law said anything before 15 weeks was going to be, anything after 15 weeks was going to be prohibited.

00:31:57.000 Now, there's a whole bunch of new technology that has come out.

00:32:03.000 It's established.

00:32:05.000 When can a fetus feel pain?

00:32:07.000 The heartbeat bills that are around the country have been largely struck down by the courts.

00:32:12.000 But those, I think it's six weeks that you can feel or that you can detect a heartbeat.

00:32:17.000 Or actually, sorry, I'll take that back.

00:32:19.000 I actually know this myself.

00:32:21.000 Probably four or five weeks you can detect a heartbeat in some instances.

00:32:27.000 So Roberts has sided with liberals almost every time on the Roe or the Casey challenges that have come up.

00:32:34.000 But this is what's so interesting.

00:32:36.000 It's going to come down to Barrett and Gorsuch.

00:32:39.000 Will they say that technology has changed?

00:32:42.000 It's evolved.

00:32:44.000 Are we going to be one of the few?

00:32:47.000 I think there's only seven nations.

00:32:48.000 That's right.

00:32:49.000 Seven nations, including China and North Korea, that allow abortions through all nine months of pregnancy.

00:32:54.000 Now, obviously, that is based on different states, have different laws.

00:32:59.000 But federally and based on the constitutional standard, you can have an abortion through all nine months of a pregnancy.

00:33:07.000 So 70% of Americans think that abortion should be highly limited.

00:33:13.000 Most Americans think that it should be within the first three months of pregnancy.

00:33:18.000 So, yet we have these laws that are completely out of step with what most Americans believe.

00:33:24.000 And we finally have a break in the case.

00:33:26.000 We finally have the Supreme Court saying that it's going to take this case, and we'll be monitoring it closely.

00:33:32.000 You can bet on that.

00:33:33.000 We've had a lot of pro-life interviews. 0.98

00:33:35.000 We had Lila Rose on the podcast just last week, just last weekend.

00:33:41.000 This case is going to be heard beginning in October, but it will probably not reach a decision until June of 2022.

00:33:48.000 So big news that it's coming, that it's happening, but we're not going to have a decision until June of 2022.

00:33:55.000 In the meantime, the left is going to do all they can to pack the court to avoid such an outcome as this.

00:34:01.000 All right.

00:34:01.000 Thanks, everybody, for listening in.
