00:00:00.000Hey everybody, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:00:01.000Charlie is off and needs some time away to recharge his batteries.
00:00:05.000In the meantime, I am here behind the microphone and we have news to cover.
00:00:08.000We talk about what's going on with the protest, quote unquote, surrounding the Supreme Court justices, Kavanaugh, Roberts, Alito, gone into hiding.
00:00:24.000Folks, we expose the far-left radical communists that are actually behind this newest protest movement.
00:00:31.000Why it's actually a front for a much more sinister movement that seeks to paralyze and deconstruct the American way of life, the Constitution.
00:00:38.000We have Josh Hammer, the opinion editor from Newsweek, chiming in about Roe v. Wade, why it's not constitutional, why it was awful, jurisprudence, and so much more.
00:01:32.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:55.000Hey, everybody, welcome to this episode of the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:01:58.000It's Monday, and this is producer Andrew Colvett filling in for the one and only Charlie Kirk, who is rightly away on his anniversary trip.
00:02:10.000He has been married for a year, folks, to the wonderful Erica.
00:02:14.000They are taking some well-deserved time off.
00:02:17.000Charlie works harder than basically any man I've ever met.
00:02:20.000I would say basically, but probably, yes, most certainly is true.
00:02:24.000So we're glad that he's taking some well-deserved time off.
00:02:26.000In the meantime, we have news to cover, and I'm honored, as always, to be behind the microphone, filling in for Charlie Kirk.
00:02:58.000We have reports that Justice Alito and his family have been moved to an undisclosed location as pro-abortion activists in Virginia, Maryland assembled outside of the homes of these justices, including Brett Kavanaugh's home, where they chanted, we will not go back and picketed with signs.
00:03:16.000Earlier this week, Alito even canceled an appearance at the fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Judicial Conference because of these far-left activists.
00:03:26.000Now, we have been speculating on this show to what extent would the left rise up in their frustration at the leaked Dobbs decision, which demonstrated that in a 5-4 majority, Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey were both going to be overturned.
00:03:50.000Alito was the drafter in that leaked decision.
00:03:55.000Now, A lot of people are speculating who leaked it.
00:04:00.000A lot of people are speculating who's going to be caught if that leaker is going to be brought to justice.
00:04:08.000Senator Ted Cruz has been speculating that it would come out of Kagan's clerkships.
00:04:14.000Now, something interesting to note here with the clerkships, each justice only has four clerks.
00:04:23.000So you've got nine justices, you've got four clerks each.
00:04:28.000That is a very small potential pool of candidates and leakers.
00:04:32.000Now, Senator Cruz says that it was likely Kagan, though he has no evidence.
00:04:37.000But based on a hunch, he believes that it was probably Kagan's because she is the most hardened partisan on the bench.
00:04:45.000Now, our friend Will Chamberlain, who came on the show last Friday and gave his breakdown of who he thought it was.
00:04:53.000But regardless of who the leaker is, it has set off widespread protests, activists, and the like around the houses of these justices, which is despicable.
00:05:12.000Now, Hot Air is even, which is actually part of the Salem network, has basically outlined, ALA Pundit has cited 18 U.S. Code 1507 yesterday, which forbids protest activities at or near the residence of a federal judge with the express purpose of attempting to influence a ruling.
00:05:38.000Now, it's an open question as to whether this law would withstand scrutiny, especially if those people that are trying to intimidate the justices are standing on public property, such as a sidewalk or a street, and they don't get violent.
00:05:54.000But still, the question is, how far will they go?
00:05:59.000And we've been speculating a lot on this show about the timing of this leak.
00:06:10.000Now, I'm of the opinion that ultimately this will backfire.
00:06:16.000The reason I believe this will backfire is because we have been going through a season, and by a season, I really mean about six years, of nonstop, constant political protesting, where we are outraged at every single possible thing that you can imagine.
00:06:34.000Whether it be the killing of George Floyd, whether it be Trump in general, Orange Man Bad, whether it be Afghanistan, whether it be whatever.
00:06:47.000It doesn't matter if it's on the left or the right.
00:06:48.000It doesn't matter if the left is aggrieved or the right is aggrieved.
00:06:52.000We have been living through a season of perpetual, nonstop, hysterical crises after crises, often drummed up by an activist media.
00:07:05.000Now, the point I'm making is that if you are going to leak something, let's say two months before the actual decision comes out, which is every indication that we have from the court that it's still a few months from being a final decision, and oftentimes draft decisions get passed around and ultimately they get changed.
00:07:26.000Vote trading is something that the court is known for.
00:07:30.000So we don't actually know if this is going to happen.
00:07:33.000We don't know if Roe will be overturned.
00:07:35.000However, a new piece of information has come out from Breitbart News, Justice Clarence Thomas.
00:07:41.000He says the Supreme Court can't be bullied on Roe v. Wade.
00:07:47.000He says, quote, we can't be an institution that can be bullied into giving you the outcomes you want.
00:07:54.000Clarence Thomas told a gathering on Thursday on Roe v. Wade.
00:07:58.000The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that.
00:08:03.000Thomas was speaking to the Judicial Conference 11th Circuit, which Justice Thomas is a native of Georgia, so he oversees Georgia, Alabama, and Florida.
00:08:14.000They divvy up the country like this at the Supreme Court.
00:08:19.000Now, militant leftists have been pressuring conservative justices to switch their votes to retain Roe, in which the Supreme Court in 1973 invented a right to abortion that was found in the text structure or 180-year history of the Constitution.
00:08:37.000Now, we are of the opinion on this show, the Charlie Kirk Show, that it was an appalling decision to begin with.
00:08:53.000So, when New York Times columnists like Brett Stevens say that this was a it's too radical to be conservative to overturn Roe, we laugh at them because we understand that the right to an abortion was nowhere found in the Constitution.
00:09:11.000What is radical is to allow a 49-year-old aberration, a 49-year-old vile ruling from the Supreme Court that broke with all constitutional precedent to stand.
00:09:25.000Now, in the meantime, we have Madison, Wisconsin anti-abortion headquarters getting hit by Molotov cocktail, vandalism, graffiti.
00:09:34.000We have the doxing of Supreme Court justices and their homes.
00:09:38.000We have Alito going into hiding with his family.
00:09:43.000Meanwhile, the White House was silent, saying that, oh, it's everybody's right to protest.
00:09:51.000Well, finally, thank goodness, well, it's a week late, doesn't even matter at this point, under this pressure, under this horrendous display of what we would call protests, activists, these catch-all words that hide truly destructive and despicable behavior from the far left.
00:10:11.000Saki tweets this morning, strongly, POTUS strongly believes in the constitutional right to protest, but that should never include violence, threats, or vandalism.
00:10:20.000Judges perform an incredibly important function in our society, and they must be able to do their jobs without concern for their personal safety.
00:10:33.000Folks, I am going, in the next segment, I'm going to get in to the group behind most of these disgusting, quote-unquote, protests.
00:10:41.000And I'm going to show you their true roots.
00:10:44.000It's going to be something that we all have a vested interest in fighting, pushing back on, and I want you to be educated so you can push back.
00:10:56.000Now, I hinted at this, but this is explosive stuff, folks.
00:11:00.000When you look at the disintegration of the American way of life, are the strands that bind us all together, when you look at what's truly behind these radical moments in our history, you must ask yourself who is actually behind this.
00:11:17.000And in this case, you will be shocked and appalled to realize who it is.
00:11:21.000From the Federalists, this is from Kyle Scheidler.
00:11:24.000The radical revolutionary Communist Party is behind Rise Up for Abortion, the group organizing Mother's Day protests across the country.
00:11:34.000A number of churches, so this is, again, Samuel Alito was moved to an undisclosed location.
00:11:41.000And in some cases, demonstrations were outside and around a number of New York City churches, including New York St. Patrick's Cathedral, where a picture of pro-life Catholics blocking the entrance to the church from screaming protesters went viral.
00:11:59.000So these have been going around everywhere.
00:12:01.000In a number of pictures and videos from Mother's Day protests, abortion protesters were wearing green bandanas and shirts and holding part of a green for abortion campaign.
00:12:14.000Now, we're going to have the tweet up here.
00:12:20.000If you're in New York this afternoon, join grassroots organizers in support of abortion rights at Foley Square.
00:12:26.000And she tweets out a rally sign channel, Your Rage, into action Tuesday, May 3rd, 5 p.m., Foley Square, New York City.
00:12:34.000Now, this may seem like run-of-the-mill left-wing protests.
00:12:42.000However, the truth behind this group is more sinister.
00:12:48.000While the left's ability, this is from the article, to rapidly throw together color-coordinated protest groups is well known, think of the Orange Revolution in Ukraine.
00:12:57.000In this case, there is more to rise up for abortion than meets the eye.
00:13:00.000And examinations of the group's website suggest the group is little more than a front for the Radical Revolutionary Communist Party, a Maoist organization founded by 60s radical Bob Avakian, a former leader of the anti-war Students for Democratic Society.
00:13:18.000So the group references leading RCP member and Avakian devotee, Sansara Taylor, and directs donors via PayPal to World Can't Wait Inc., another organization co-founded by Taylor.
00:13:31.000Refuse Fascism, another Taylor-led RCP front group.
00:13:35.000The Rise Up for Abortion page even includes a link to Revolution Nothing Less, an RCP YouTube show.
00:13:49.000The party's constitution says they openly seek, quote, a revolution that overthrows this system and the capitalist imperialist class that embodies and runs it, a revolution that will immediately establish a new power.
00:14:02.000Avakian has called the overthrow of U.S. imperialism and the establishment of the revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat, the greatest contribution to the world revolution that can be made.
00:14:16.000So what's interesting about this is you've got Hillary Clinton tweeting her support of a radical communist revolutionary group led by a guy named Avakian.
00:14:28.000Now, this gentleman, I use that word pretty lightly here.
00:14:37.000He's written quite a bit about the Chinese Maoist revolution that he sees.
00:14:42.000And he specifically writes about seizing crises, moments of crises, to overturn the United States Constitution.
00:14:50.000This is a quote from him in a 91-page constitution that he wrote in 2010.
00:14:55.000He lives in France now, and they called him like the precious leader.
00:15:01.000In order to bring this new socialist state into being, it would be necessary to thoroughly defeat, dismantle, and abolish the capitalist imperialist state of the USA.
00:15:12.000This in turn would only become possible with the development of a profound and acute crises in society.
00:15:21.000Think about all the crises we've lived through.
00:15:23.000And the emergence of a revolutionary people in the millions and millions who have the leadership of a revolutionary communist vanguard and are conscious of the need for revolutionary change and determined to fight for it.
00:15:36.000Folks, what you're seeing is a coordinated, radical, left-wing protest, again in air quotes, group trying to dismantle the U.S. Constitution.
00:15:47.000And it starts with our institutions and the Supreme Court.
00:15:52.000Look, everybody, I know you love freedom and you want to defend it.
00:15:57.000It's a beautiful document, and so do I.
00:15:59.000And it's the same with Hillsdale College, the best liberal arts college in America.
00:16:03.000Hillsdale's mission is pursuing truth and defending liberty.
00:16:06.000It gives its undergraduate and graduate students the best education and is working to make this education available to all, from offering free online courses to helping support K through 12 schools.
00:16:17.000But today I want to tell you about Hillsdale's amazing free monthly digest of liberty.
00:17:42.000I think you try and play it very fair.
00:17:44.000But you, you know, you're, you, you write extensively about the Constitution.
00:17:49.000You are very well versed on the Supreme Court.
00:17:52.000Obviously, you're the opinion editor at Newsweek, so you have a very powerful platform.
00:17:59.000You know, from your, I mean, a legal mind such as yours, looking at what's been going on over the past week and really accelerated over the last couple of days, over the weekend, try and paint a picture for the audience listening just how unprecedented this is and just how truly radical it is in your estimation.
00:18:20.000Yeah, no, Andrew, there's so much to impact here, obviously.
00:18:22.000Before we get into the Constitution and the Dobbs case and all of that, just from a pro-life perspective, as someone who personally, you know, I co-founded Law Students for Life, the pro-life student group back when I was in law school at the University of Chicago, I have marched in sub-zero temperatures in Chicago back when I was in law school there on, you know, for life.
00:18:39.000It is really, really, really terrible that the culmination of now a half century of pro-life efforts to speak on behalf of unborn children for the, you know, the sacredness of all innocent human life has now been sullied by this unprecedented and really just disgusting Alinsky-ited all-cost tactics that we are now seeing.
00:18:59.000And, you know, it's easy to call things unprecedented, but in this particular case, Andrew, there literally is zero precedent for what we are seeing right now.
00:19:06.000This kind of thing simply does not happen.
00:19:08.000The Supreme Court literally can only get by when the justices, the clerks know that their emails are not going to be leaked.
00:19:15.000Because if the entire notion of a government of laws and not of men, to kind of borrow the famous quote from John Adams back in the 1780s, if that phrase means anything at all, it means that the judicial branch and the Supreme Court in particular cannot possibly be swayed or cowed by public mobocracy.
00:19:33.000And, you know, I think back to Abraham Lincoln.
00:19:35.000You know, I'm born in Abraham Lincoln's birthday.
00:19:53.000So I see what's happening now in the picketers outside Chief Justice Roberts' house, Kavanaugh, Alito.
00:19:59.000I mean, Justice Alito apparently has been moved to an undisclosed location.
00:20:03.000I mean, my God, I mean, like, every time you think that they can't possibly go lower after what they did to Bob Bork in 87, Clarence Thomas in 91, Brett Kaivana just four years ago, they just find a new way to go lower, Andrew.
00:20:14.000But we're really in uncharted waters at this point.
00:20:17.000Yeah, I want to play a clip for you here from Senator Klobuchar.
00:20:21.000That I think, you know, when we talk about the constitutionality of Roe v. Wade and obviously Casey, sort of sort of, in my opinion, obviously, I think you would agree that it's unconstitutional.
00:20:36.000I think Alito's opinion was skewered the original Roe decision.
00:20:41.000But let's play Senator Klobuchar here, and I want to get your take on what she says, because actually what she's saying from a sitting U.S. Senator is something.
00:20:48.000I mean, this is not Maisie Hirono here talking here, I mean, which we just assume is she's going to say the most outlandish, you know, far-left, out-to-sea kind of type of things.
00:20:58.000This is Senator Klobuchar, who many think is sort of moderate or left of center, but not far left.
00:21:06.000Why should a woman in Texas have different rights and a different future and a different ability to make decisions about her body and her reproductive choices than a woman in Minnesota?
00:21:21.000How can that be in this country that we'd have a patchwork of laws?
00:21:27.000So Senator Klobuchar and I actually went to the same law school.
00:21:29.000And, you know, I would like to think that when she was in common law back in her law school days, she knew better about the actual constitutional law underpinning of Roe versus Wade and its murderous successor, of course, Glen Perrin versus Casey in 1992.
00:21:42.000Now, look, I mean, John Hart Eli, okay, there are so many liberals who have criticized Roe versus Wade's fallacious reasoning over the years, but John Hart Eli, who was a longtime constitutional law professor at Harvard Law School, he was the dean of Stanford Law School as well.
00:21:54.000He was personally a liberal progressive.
00:21:58.000But he famously said in 1982 that Roe versus Wade was not constitutional law and barely even gave a semblance of purporting to be constitutional law.
00:22:06.000It was literally no less a feminist, leftist, progressive icon than the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg herself, who said that Roe versus Wade overstepped that the court should not have acted there when it did.
00:22:19.000They should have stayed cool, let it play out democratically in the states.
00:22:23.000So, you know, what I hear from Senator Klobuchar there is, you know, it's constitutional illiteracy.
00:22:27.000It's also moral illiteracy, of course.
00:22:29.000We can't forget what we're talking about here.
00:22:31.000We're talking about the wanton murder of now 63 million unborn children since Roe versus Wade came down in 1973.
00:22:39.000I mean, it's really just difficult to kind of wrap your mind around that kind of number.
00:22:44.000But, you know, there's something about she said there, Andrew, that I think there's a modicum.
00:22:48.000There's a small, small sliver of correctness.
00:22:51.000And where I think she's correct is that it ultimately is unsustainable for in the long term, my personal perspective, in the long term, for this to actually be a state issue.
00:23:00.000I do think back kind of, frankly, to Abraham Lincoln debating Stephen Douglas in 1858 in the debates.
00:23:05.000And, you know, at the time, Stephen Douglas was also saying popular sovereignty, let the people decide.
00:23:10.000Abraham Lincoln ultimately appealed to natural justice, to transcendental order, and really just morality and faith above all else.
00:23:16.000It said that no, we cannot ultimately stand as a house divided.
00:23:20.000And I think in the long run, pro-lifers have to have the goal, obviously, of an abortion-free America.
00:23:25.000Now, Klobuchar, I think, obviously wants a totally abortioned America, but I think that I can respect her insofar as I think she understands that this ultimately, ultimately, the state-by-state solution is untenable.
00:23:36.000But from a pro-life perspective, obviously, is a deeply important first step towards that goal.
00:23:40.000Well, I mean, listen, people don't understand, as you said, it's constitutional illiteracy.
00:23:45.000You obviously went to the same law school as Senator Klobuchar, which now, no offense, Josh.
00:23:52.000I'm a little, your law school is a little suspect here.
00:23:55.000But I mean, the 10th Amendment, obviously, there's a lot to unpack in the 10th Amendment.
00:24:01.000Maybe just for layman's terms here, people listening, you know, they might have heard so many times over and over and over again that Roe v. Wade was bad and that Roe v. Wade, you know, but they don't understand why.
00:24:33.000You know, that's in 1865 when Lincoln was still alive before he was assassinated.
00:24:36.000Three years later, the 14th Amendment comes in 1868.
00:24:39.000The 14th Amendment is one of, you know, that is one of the most transformational amendments that the Constitution has ever had.
00:24:45.000And in particular, Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, there are five sections, has various kind of sweeping clauses.
00:24:50.000There's the due process clause, the equal protection clause, the privileges or immunities clause, the citizenship clause.
00:24:56.000And in particular, along the years, really kind of starting in the early 20th century, building up until the Warren Court in the middle of the 20th century, a lot of justice started to glom onto the words of the due process clause to kind of develop this doctrine of so-called substantive due process, where even though the clause expressly kind of codifies only process, that there are certain substantive values, certain liberty interests that are enshrined in that wording of that clause.
00:25:24.000So in 1965, in the case called Griswold versus Connecticut, this is when the court comes up with the so-called right to privacy, which is not actually, as a legal matter, is not actually there in the Bill of Rights.
00:25:35.000Is this when they start talking about penumbras and this types of thing?
00:25:42.000You're doing a little bit of lawyer legalese here.
00:25:44.000But what you're basically saying is they start looking into certain clauses in the 14th Amendment, right, that came after the Civil War, and they start reading in and basically, you know, looking at the spirit of the language of the 14th Amendment and start extrapolating things that weren't expressly articulated.
00:26:11.000So in the Griswold case, 1965, they purport to find the so-called right to privacy literally from the penumbras from the emanations of the Bill of Rights, which is legalese for saying we're making this crap up.
00:26:23.000That is literally legalese for saying this is nowhere in there, but we think this is a good constitutional right to fabricate because we are smart people who know better than the people out there and fly over country.
00:26:34.000And then eight years after Griswold, the court extends this right to privacy that they made up eight years prior to the purported right to terminate your unborn child.
00:27:17.000So, because what's happening with this, Josh, is now they're saying loving, they're talking about the radical left is now saying that it's not going to stop here, folks.
00:27:30.000They're going to take away the right to interracial marriage.
00:27:32.000They're going to take away, I mean, they're going to bring back sodomy laws, like all of this.
00:27:42.000Yeah, I mean, they're basically completely out of line.
00:27:44.000I mean, look, the way that the Supreme Court operates is they have what's called a discretionary docket, where they get to pick and choose their cases.
00:27:51.000So, you know, if some nutjob in some random state decides to challenge the constitutionality of Loving versus Virginia, for instance, which banned interracial marriage, they would just never grant the case because there is no constituency whatsoever other than Klansmen who is trying to overturn Loving versus Virginia.
00:28:08.000That's just not a thing that anyone talks about here.
00:28:11.000But also, you know, when we talk about star decisis, which is legalese just for precedent and how much to value precedence, there are other factors of interest here, too.
00:28:19.000So a very common thing that lawyers talk about when it gets to starry decisis are so-called reliance interests.
00:28:24.000Who is concretely relying on a previous decision?
00:28:28.000Now, in Roe versus Wade, there are really no firm reliance interests because to simply have had a prior abortion does not count.
00:28:34.000There's no one who to this day is relying on that ruling.
00:28:38.000But in a marriage-type case, whether it's Loving versus Virginia or the same-sex marriage decision, to be clear, I firmly oppose the Obergefell same-sex marriage decision.
00:28:45.000But when you get to this act of issuing marriage licenses, people have really kind of changed their lives in kind of a meaningful way.
00:29:06.000But that is a much more difficult proposition.
00:29:09.000And to be honest with you, I'm not optimistic enough to expect that anytime soon.
00:29:12.000So this is really just kind of false scaremongering.
00:29:15.000Okay, so you reject the slippery slope argument here.
00:29:19.000But ultimately, what we're all saying is that this was not constitutional.
00:29:25.000We have a states-based system for a reason where the states gave the federal government their authority, and we're just advocating that it goes back as the Constitution outlines.
00:29:39.000The fight for the unborn is raging in our country, and an unprecedented leak from the Supreme Court indicates that Roe v. Wade is on the brink of being overturned.
00:29:46.000During this critical time, a new movie is about to be released.
00:29:48.000The award-winning film, The Matter of Life, cuts through the rhetoric and hatred and exposes the real issues surrounding the plight of the unborn.

00:30:18.000This is a battle taking place in America.
00:30:20.000Whether you're pro-choice or pro-life, you need to see this film, F-A-T-H-O-M-Events.com, fathomevents.com.
00:30:29.000I want to play this clip from you because one of the most, I would say, enigmatic people on the left today is none other than regime chair Joe Biden.
00:30:42.000Let's just play this clip because Joe Biden says he's a devout Catholic.
00:30:46.000He's gone on record in the past saying that he doesn't like Roe, thinks abortions should be rare.
00:30:58.000I said, I believe I have the rights that I have, not because the government gave them to me, which you believe, but because I'm just a child of God.
00:31:29.000So the idea that we're going to make a judgment that is going to say that no one can make the judgment to choose to abort a child based on a decision by the Supreme Court, I think goes way overboard.
00:31:48.000So, Josh, make sense of our dear president here.
00:32:08.000Yeah, no, Andrew, it's a meandering clip because we're dealing, obviously, with a doddering, senile man who really should be in a retirement home and not leading the free world.
00:32:16.000It's really sad, honestly, when you see people speak this incoherently.
00:32:19.000By the way, that first clip we just heard, Joe Biden, of all people really should know better because Joe Biden, along with Ted Kennedy, was involved in helping to sink the Bob Bork nomination to the Supreme Court in 1987 on exactly those grounds, but the other way around, actually.
00:32:34.000They would fear Monger that Bob Bork believed in natural rights of the unborn child.
00:32:38.000So 35 years later, he's totally forgot what he actually said in the other direction towards a Republican nominee to the Supreme Court.
00:32:45.000As far as what he can do unilaterally, really not a whole lot.
00:32:49.000So the FDA, the Food and Drug Administration under the Biden administration has already kind of liberalized rules pertaining to the mailing of abortion pills of abort of phasians via telemedicine.
00:33:01.000That is going to be one of the next fights that's going to take shape.
00:33:04.000I have some friends actually in the state of Missouri who I've been kind of in touch with on and off.
00:33:08.000Missouri is kind of actively crafting a pro-life bill to try and minimize the extent to which Missourians can possibly kind of get abortion pills.
00:33:49.000So, you know, I think this is been a really comprehensive hour.
00:33:54.000And Josh, thank you so much for all your contributions to this discussion, giving us the breakdown, why it's not constitutional in the first place, what would happen if it does get overturned.
00:34:05.000You know, what we're seeing here is a coordinated attack by far left.
00:34:10.000And when I say far left, I'm not just using that as a casual pejorative.
00:34:14.000These are actual revolutionary communists that want to overthrow the United States and our system of laws, our Constitution, and they want to use crises, moments of crises, in order to do that.
00:34:45.000Andrew, if I can sum it out, look, within the first 24 to 48 hours of the week, I personally was on the lookout to see if a single Democratic elected official would even condemn the leak, an unprecedented attempt to undermine the court.
00:34:56.000To my knowledge, that has not happened yet.
00:34:59.000Now, the next level, of course, is actively effectively encouraging what is happening outside the homes of these justices in direct violation, I would mention, of 18 U.S. Code's Section 1507, which literally makes it a federal crime to do exactly what these people are doing-to picket outside houses and intimidate justices to kind of carry out justice according to the likes of which they would not otherwise get at.
00:35:20.000But what's going on here is they've this is DEF CON one, okay?
00:35:23.000This is what people have to understand, Andrew.
00:35:25.000We have not gone to DEF CON one, they have brought it here.
00:35:50.000You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
00:35:53.000They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
00:36:00.000So here's the deal: if you're struggling with back pain, neck pain, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted, only $19.95.
00:36:29.000Now, something that I've been personally railing against, and some of you have heard me rail against it on this show when I've filled in for Charlie, others, this will be new, is the left's casual use of the word civil rights group.
00:36:43.000This I find particularly infuriating for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that it is a catch-all term for potential violence, thuggery, abuse, for unlawful misconduct.
00:37:00.000But yet, when they couch it in terms like civil rights group, this evokes a proud tradition on the progressive side of the aisle.
00:37:08.000And certainly, even some conservatives celebrate certain progressive wins throughout our history, right?
00:37:16.000I mean, nobody wants an America where we have segregation again.
00:37:19.000And if you do want that, you're listening to the wrong show.
00:37:22.000But I want to harken back to something that came out in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
00:37:29.000So I want to harken back to this Molly Ball article, the oft-mentioned Molly Ball article from Time magazine: the secret history of the shadow campaign that saved the 2020 election.
00:37:39.000Okay, saved in Molly Ball's estimation, I think something much more sinister to the folks listening to this broadcast right now.
00:37:50.000Now, the interesting part of in the protests against the justices Alito going to St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York, they are advertising additional protests all week, a week of action they're calling for.
00:38:03.000But these are far left, anti-constitution, constitutional revolutionary radicals.
00:38:11.000And by the way, one of the interesting pieces of this is that even while Hillary Clinton is pushing this garbage, some on the far left are going against it.
00:38:20.000So the DC anti-fascist action, so basically DCM Tifa, is saying today rise up for abortion, aka rebanded refuse fascism, aka offshoot of Bob Avakian's cult.
00:38:35.000The Revcoms held a pro-choice rally at the Supreme Court of the United States.
00:38:50.000Because the leader of Aiken has been living in France, they call him the precious exiled leader or something along those lines.
00:39:01.000Now, I don't know that this group is anything special.
00:39:05.000I know that they have a history of getting involved in the Ferguson riots.
00:39:11.000They have a history of getting involved in the George Floyd riots.
00:39:15.000What they do is they grab onto a crisis, they exploit it to maximal political gains.
00:39:24.000Now, what this group would do is hide behind the moniker of civil rights, civil rights group, civil rights activists, which on the left is a blank check for doing whatever the hell you want to do.
00:40:06.000Why do you think the nation was braced for chaos?
00:40:10.000Well, it was braced for chaos because left-wing agitators have conditioned us to be braced for chaos.
00:40:18.000Liberal groups had vowed to take to the streets, planning hundreds of protests across the country.
00:40:25.000Right-wing militias were guarding for battle.
00:40:27.000In a poll before Election Day, 75% of Americans voiced concern about violence.
00:40:34.000A little bit later in the piece, there was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs.
00:40:42.000Both surprises were the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans.
00:40:49.000It says the pact was formalized in a terse, little notice joint statement of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the AFL-CIO published on Election Day.
00:40:58.000So let me paint the scene here again for you folks.
00:41:01.000This is how the left couches their violence.
00:41:06.000They harken back to MLK and the legacy of civil rights marching for racial equality, which even conservatives believe is a beautiful and good thing mostly.
00:41:17.000Now, there was an assault on some of the constitutional underpinnings in that time that we can go into more detail and more depth on at a later time.
00:41:24.000And perhaps we will again, but we've done it multiple times in the show.
00:41:27.000But nevertheless, this is the history that they're leveraging.
00:41:32.000But what we see now is that these civil rights groups are going to be protesting the constitutionality of Roe v. Wade, which, yes, by the way, they have every right to protest.
00:41:41.000They don't have a right to dox to intimidate our Supreme Court justices.
00:41:47.000They don't have a right to throw Molotov cocktails at pro-life centers, anti-abortion centers in Madison, Wisconsin.
00:41:54.000They don't have a right to burn cop cars and smash businesses.
00:41:59.000But if you go back to this AFL-CIO statement in the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, this is why you see so many conservatives railing against the Chamber of Commerce Republicans, this controlled opposition of the political right.
00:42:18.000They joined hands in a deal with the devil with the AFL-CIO, big union labor, to ensure that their groups, their activist groups, were under their thumb and controlled by them.
00:42:35.000They put out the bat signal after November 3rd, 2020, and they told their minions not to take to the streets.
00:42:44.000They're civil rights groups, not to take to the streets.
00:42:49.000It was a handshake between business and labor, and one component of a vast cross-section campaign to protect the election.
00:42:58.000Their work touched on every aspect of the election.
00:43:00.000They got states to change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public and private funding.
00:43:06.000They fended off voter suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers, and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time.
00:43:14.000They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line against disinformation, Ministry of Truth, and used data-driven strategies to fight viral smears.
00:43:25.000So, when you see protesters, again, air quotes outside of the homes of justices, Supreme Court justices, when you see them throwing Molotov cocktails, when you see them taking the streets in violence, remember that this is their playbook.
00:43:39.000Their playbook is to seize on a crisis to enact a radical transformation of this country, this beautiful country, this gift that we've been given.
00:43:50.000And we must not see it as the grassroots, as normal Americans.
00:43:53.000This is nothing more than a far-left power grab, and it's coordinated to destroy this country.
00:43:58.000Okay, so we have been talking about this concerted effort on the left.
00:44:05.000Go back to Molly Ball's article from Time magazine.
00:44:08.000One point here: said the potential for a November meltdown was obvious in his apartment in the DC suburbs.
00:44:14.000Pothorser, who's considered one of the architects of this left-wing cabal to quote-unquote save the election, slash, you know, get the result they wanted.
00:44:24.000Pothorser began working from his laptop at his kitchen table, holding back-to-back Zoom meetings for hours a day with his network of contacts across the progressive universe: the labor movement, the institutional left, like Planned Parenthood and Greenpeace, resistance groups like Indivisible and Move On, progressive data geeks and strategists, representatives of donors and foundations, state-level grassroots organizers, racial justice activists, and others.
00:44:54.000What she just describes there is the conglomeration of left-wing radical groups that basically link together to not protest.
00:45:10.000That was their stroke of genius in 2020.
00:45:12.000Everybody thought that they were going to take to the streets and sow violence and chaos, like we'd seen with the Floyd of Palooza in 2020.
00:45:20.000And we were bracing for it, and it didn't materialize.
00:45:25.000Now, we have been speculating on the show what exactly is going to materialize from the Roe decision being leaked.
00:45:34.000And by the way, folks, this is the next segment.
00:45:36.000We're going to be joined by Dr. Keith Rose.
00:45:40.000We're going to be going over Pfizer docs.
00:45:42.000We're going to be going over Bill Gates news.
00:45:44.000And then in the third hour, we're going to be talking about 2,000 mules and some other things.
00:45:48.000But I just want to finish this whole Roe conversation by talking about what does it all mean?
00:45:55.000So we have to at least allow for the possibility that the Roe itself being in danger, that there could be a strong reaction from progressives and those who are supportive of legal abortion.
00:46:07.000So, you know, in other words, do we need to be on the lookout for some kind of evidence that this election in 2022, the midterms, the complexity is going to fundamentally change.
00:46:20.000Up to this point, we've been assured that we are going to win and win big.
00:46:23.000The conservatives are on the precipice of a significant historic election where we will take back power in the House and that we have a very good chance of doing so in the Senate as well.
00:46:39.000I'm reading for the Washington Examiner.
00:46:40.000The May 2nd leak of Justice Alito's draft decision over Trinity Row, there has been exactly one poll taken on the congressional generic ballot question.
00:46:49.000The one that asked voters which party's candidate they intend to support this November.
00:46:54.000CNN had actually polled this question in the three days immediately before the leak and found Republicans with a one-point advantage.
00:47:01.000Okay, so Republicans had a one-point advantage, which by the way, maybe doesn't seem like much, but historically, Republicans having a one-point advantage in the generic poll is breathtaking.
00:48:11.000I hope that was informative for you all.
00:48:13.000I know it was informative for me researching.
