00:01:38.000Okay, everybody, happy Thought Crime Thursday.
00:01:42.000If you are watching for the first time, this might be a familiar aesthetic because clips from this program have been viewed over 20 million times in the last week.
00:02:04.000You know, I have a theory as to why this all broke.
00:02:06.000And Jack is with us, and Jack has the first topic, but let me just say this theory.
00:02:10.000I think because our stream was so successful in the New Hampshire primary night, it was a rising tide lifts all boats, and it just had a bunch of people then going through previously, like recently posted content because it was a lag effect.
00:02:24.000We had the program last week, and then it was just nothing, nothing, nothing, New Hampshire.
00:02:29.000And then the night of the New Hampshire primary, this idea of the pilot story started to go viral.
00:02:34.000I prefer the idea that there's just some poor schlub at Media Matters or something who's just ordered to watch every single piece of content.
00:03:05.000No, so, so, you know, Charlie, just real quick, you know, it's very strange.
00:03:08.000I was, I was out reporting on the campaign trail earlier today, had to fly in for thought crime, and I just made sure right before I went up, I said, guys, could you tell me the name of my pilot by chance before I get in?
00:03:23.000I'm not going to name the airline United.
00:03:26.000And they said, his name, oh, his name is John Smith.
00:04:21.000For Ken and for the, as Rush used to call them, the feminazis out there, it was basically like 9-11, because the patriarchy got the achievement, while the women were told, well, you are not allowed on stage, you have to stay in the kitchen.
00:04:42.000It really just goes to show you folks, we're back, we're so, absolutely back, and they're losing, they're actually losing their minds over this Charlie, that the idea that a guy who remember people have to understand too about, about Ryan Gosling, what he's doing is he's playing a woman's conception of a man right, whereas Margot Rabbi is playing a woman's conception of a woman and, let's be honest, her portrayal is completely boring.
00:05:08.000But a lot of people have pointed out that Ken on his i'm sorry it is other.
00:05:14.000Tanya was telling me that she liked the outfits, but Tanya actually fell asleep watching the movie and whereas Ken goes on this whole story arc where he actually understands that in the real world, so he, so Kens, are basically slaves in Barbie World um, and and this movie really in many ways is birth of a nation for women, and he then goes and become and finds out that in the real world, men are on all the money and men have been all the presidents,
00:05:42.000and men have invented everything and are and are in charge of the most successful companies.
00:05:47.000And so he goes back to Barbie World and he, he leads the men to liberation and there's just something, there's just something very ironically glorious that he's the one who gets the Oscar nomination and not them.
00:06:00.000Well, so one of the things that makes it funny, they're complaining about this and we we shouldn't miss this, by the way, that this got commentary from Hillary Clinton.
00:06:13.000Hillary Clinton actually is the person who ran for president once uh, a long, a long time ago.
00:06:19.000I know it's, it's easy to forget, but there was this person, Hillary Clinton.
00:06:22.000She was the wife of, of Bill Clinton, an actual president and she tried to run for president, and so they put her into the news cycle.
00:06:30.000And so yesterday she tweeted in response to the Oscar nominations, Greta and Margo, while it can sting to win the box office, but not take home the gold, your millions of fans love you.
00:06:44.000You're both so much more than Kenuff, which is a Ken thing, and then uh, hashtag Hillary Barbie.
00:06:54.000She appears to have made that up herself.
00:06:57.000Now what stands out as funny to me is they're talking like it's a big sec.
00:07:02.000Like NEW YORK Times has this headline, uh like for Barbie fans online, a bitterly Ironic Oscar snub.
00:07:10.000Margot Robbie missed the Academy Award nomination for actress, a fact that was a little too on the nose for some.
00:07:16.000I will note the Oscar category is for best actress.
00:07:22.000So the implication is she got left out due to sexism, but she just didn't get the nomination compared to other women competing for the same category for other films where they, as far as I know, played women.
00:07:37.000But so it fits into this realm in cinema where they just complain about things that are not real and don't happen.
00:07:45.000A few years ago, they had a Captain Marvel movie come out about, it was one of those stupid superhero movies, and they acted like it was the first time a woman had ever starred in a major motion picture.
00:07:56.000But in fact, many women have starred in motion pictures, and best actress has been an Oscar category, going back, as far as I know, to the original Oscars.
00:08:06.000But I guess the cause of fighting systemic sexism has been going on for 100 years and will continue to go on because they are, in the end, systematically unhappy.
00:08:15.000Has the Oscars ever nominated a biological woman into the male category or vice versa?
00:11:18.000The one thing I was going to throw out that the that on Margot Robbie's behalf is that Margot Robbie was absolutely robbed of the best actress role in when she was nominated, but when she put out the movie I Tanya, where she played Tanya Harding, I think it was back in 2017 or 2018.
00:11:41.000So Tanya Harding was the one where, and everybody thinks that Tanya Harding attacked Nancy Kerrigan at the 1994 Olympics, but it was actually like the people around Tanya Harding attacked Nancy Kerrigan.
00:11:53.000And the movie is kind of like her side of the story, which is very different from what the tabloid side of the story is.
00:12:21.000And she got in trouble for that, but she wasn't actually part of it, even though history constantly blames her for this.
00:12:26.000And I think that Margot Robbie did a fantastic job.
00:12:29.000And the reason that this matters so much, Charlie, for a political perspective, as well as just sort of where we are in the culture, right?
00:12:37.000Is because Barbie goes on to be this incredible just box office juggernaut, something like $1.3, $1.4 billion, probably even more than that.
00:12:48.000You know, easily defeated everything at the box office in 2023, certainly in terms of aggregate dollars.
00:12:57.000Sound of Freedom, I think, is number one in terms of profitability because the ratio of how cheaply that was made.
00:13:02.000It was either that or the new Godzilla movie, which is also made really, really cheaply, but went on to be a huge success.
00:13:08.000The reason it matters so much is like goes back to what I was saying before that this was birth of the nation for women.
00:13:13.000That these feminists, Charlie, and the fact that, look, I think most people, most girls who went to see the Barbie movie aren't coming out and actually like listening to it.
00:13:21.000But there's a scene in there, and it's not even a scene, it's a whole plot where, in order to basically win over the film, you would think in a movie like this, like Ken versus Barbie, people would have said, you know, I think the classic movie plot would be, well, women and men need each other, right?
00:13:40.000Ken needs Barbie, Barbie needs Ken, and that kind of would have been the end of the movie.
00:13:46.000The end of this movie is that Barbie is superior to Ken and that women are superior to men and that women are not allowed to be held accountable.
00:13:56.000Women are not allowed to be subject to objective standards of anything because women, of course, the main thing they want is to be the center of attention and have everyone talking about them.
00:14:09.000And if everyone is not, then obviously it is because of sexism and it's because of misogyny.
00:14:15.000That is quite literally, quite literally the message of this film.
00:14:19.000And so for the response from the Academy to not give it the best actress nomination just flies in the face of all of the political and the feminist equity that has been built up in this, which is similar, by the way, to the Taylor Swift stuff that we've seen going on as well.
00:14:38.000And the left, of course, is running around already making ads depicting girls dressed as Barbie, listening to Taylor Swift music and then going to vote for Democrats.
00:14:47.000So there's so much equity that the Democrats have put into this branding.
00:15:23.000It's like, you know, no, no, it's so not, it's just a movie.
00:15:26.000Guys, like, if you're, you're stupid if you think it's just a movie.
00:15:29.000Like, honestly, this is one of the most high-level Democrat operations that's been going on for a long time in our country.
00:15:36.000If you want to know why DEI, if you want to know why all of these political correctness stuff is being done, pushed to the highest level, it's because people get their understanding of the world from Hollywood movies.
00:15:46.000And if you don't understand the influence they have on our society, then like maybe stop watching the show because this is made for Spark.
00:16:31.000So big story this week, other than New Hampshire, is Texas has been fighting over whether they should allow 3 million people into the United States every year in an endless flood tide of humanity until they inundate the entire country, or they could not allow that to happen.
00:16:49.000And in a sort of strange reversal, the United States government, which is supposed to like, you know, the executive branch is tasked with enforcing the laws of the United States.
00:17:00.000Hence, executive comes from execute, you know, carry out.
00:17:03.000They're taking the perspective that we should not execute these laws and Texas should be flooded.
00:17:08.000So they sue, they, Texas started to put up barbed wire, razor wire, because the federal government won't do it.
00:17:15.000And the federal government sued to make sure that the invasion would continue.
00:17:19.000Our glorious, you know, six justice majority Supreme Court for conservatives agreed with that, that they can take down the razor wire.
00:17:27.000And so Texas has announced they're going to just keep putting up more razor wire.
00:17:31.000And initially, it did seem that initially it seemed like they were going to do this stunt of opposing, defying the Supreme Court.
00:17:41.000But if you look closer at the wording of what's going on, there's no Supreme Court to defy.
00:17:46.000All the Supreme Court did is say that the Biden administration is allowed to take wire down.
00:17:51.000They don't say anything about what Texas can do.
00:17:53.000So Texas says we're going to just keep putting up wire.
00:18:18.000Obviously, if you're getting on the work he is here, it is possible the Biden administration will come in and say that, you know, it's an insurrection to put up razor wire and anyone involved in this has to go to prison for five to 500 years.
00:18:32.000The decision was pretty narrow, though.
00:18:34.000We say decision, yet it's really just like a, I don't even know.
00:18:37.000I can't remember the technical term, but they didn't issue a ruling.
00:18:41.000All that we got was there was an injunction placed on the federal government at the circuit court level.
00:18:48.000And the Supreme Court says, we reverse that injunction.
00:18:51.000By the way, these four justices, the good ones, say that they would not have reversed the injunction.
00:18:58.000We just have one of those brief non-ruling orders.
00:19:02.000And But yes, it does mean that there's not really a Supreme Court to defy because the Supreme Court, all they did was reverse an injunction.
00:19:10.000And so the reason we, you know, people talk about a brewing civil war is Abbott issued a pretty strongly worded letter pointing out there is a federal government obligation in the Constitution to protect the states from invasion.
00:19:25.000There are a lot of laws and for that matter, personnel who could be deployed to halt this invasion.
00:19:31.000And instead, the federal government is directly facilitating the invasion and making sure that as many invaders as possible come in.
00:19:38.000So it's the fact that he's publicly stating this and that several dozen GOP governors at this point have backed him up in saying this.
00:19:46.000And the big question, of course, is what happens next?
00:19:49.000Because we have Joaquin Castro, we have Beta O'Rourke.
00:19:53.000They're saying, well, these guys are in defiance of the federal government.
00:19:56.000So we need to federalize the National Guard of all of these states, like what we did during the Little Rock crisis 60 years ago, oh gosh, 70 years ago, and forcefully intervene here is what they're all demanding.
00:20:13.000You have this, especially on the far left of the Democrat Party, they're really loving the idea of like, let's stoke this crisis as much as possible on behalf of a massively unpopular and illegal flood invasion into the United States of the entire planet.
00:20:44.000And I don't think Texas will get in the way, but I think Texas might put up more wire afterwards because that's where the murkiness comes in.
00:20:50.000Now, the spirit of the decision, not the text of the decision, basically is like, hey, let the federal government determine border policy.
00:20:58.000Well, it's one of those, I was telling you the other day that it's like we have this super hidden constitution, which has, you know, the zeroth amendment to the Constitution is whatever else that says thou shalt have open borders.
00:21:11.000No, that is the prime directive of modern America.
00:21:15.000Pretty much, because we've had these orders, like we've had in the past, Arizona had that law about 15 years ago to try to curb illegal immigrants in a variety of ways.
00:21:24.000And you'd get these courts that swoop in and say, whoa, when just by passing a law to discourage illegal immigrants, you're imposing on the federal government's, like indirectly, you're getting in the federal government's obligation.
00:21:37.000They're the ones who enforce immigration law.
00:21:39.000But then we have all of these sanctuary cities which do enormously disruptive or like unhelpful things to sabotage the enforcement of immigration law.
00:21:49.000And none of these federal courts ever step in and say, oh, well, you're directly undermining the federal government's ability to enforce its laws.
00:21:57.000And the Supreme Court has not taken up these cases.
00:22:01.000We've had circuit courts strike that down while also striking down.
00:22:05.000It's no matter what, the courts always end up coming around to, oh, wow, what a weird coincidence.
00:22:10.000It turns out you're not allowed to have a border because the federal government.
00:22:13.000So, Tyler, I want to get you in on this.
00:22:16.000Tyler was, you know, he didn't chirp in, get it.
00:22:19.000Because chirp is a theme here on the Barbie thing, and that's fine.
00:24:16.000But yeah, Sheriff Joe was putting people out in the desert in pink underwear, but they were locking up illegal immigrants and illegal aliens and they were sending them back to Mexico, which today, which today, like if anybody read this today, they're like, wait, we had that law and the it got overturned.
00:24:34.000It went to the Ninth Circuit, got overturned by Susan Bolton.
00:25:03.000The party did not embrace it at that time.
00:25:06.000Today, I think you would actually get vocal support from the party because the party and a majority of Americans, because people are going, look at what's happening.
00:25:16.000It's not, it has nothing to do with Mexican immigrants.
00:25:18.000It has everything to do with people coming jumping our border from all over across the world.
00:25:22.000So Tyler, but help me understand the psychology because this is the border fight, whether we like it or not, is largely being driven by Chamber of Commerce people right now.
00:25:46.000It's kind of like the way that the NRA at times would manage gun laws, right?
00:25:52.000So remember, we've been really, there's been times where conservatives have been really angry with the NRA because they've embraced a worse version of a gun law or a gun bill than what we could have.
00:26:03.000And their argument is that they're embracing it in order to manage it.
00:26:07.000And that's, I think that's what you're seeing with like a Governor Abbott.
00:26:10.000Like we saw in the last few days of Doug Ducey's administration, he was like sticking these big metal containers across the board that they ended up, we spent the money on it and they ripped it right out when Katie Hobbs got in there.
00:26:22.000But they did this in Texas too, in Abbott.
00:26:24.000And this is a lot of like illegal, anti-legal immigration cosplay that we see because it's popular, right?
00:26:32.000Like Governor Abbott in the entire time that he served has not really prioritized border.
00:26:44.000And now all of a sudden it gets popular.
00:26:46.000I think they're managing this because it's popular and they know that, you know, like the SB 1070s and things like that, real conservatives will get in and they're going to start to demand things like this.
00:27:14.000Jack, can you just strongman that argument and why you think it's wrong?
00:27:18.000Well, so there's a couple pieces of it, right?
00:27:22.000And so we do need to talk about the wider situation of what's going on.
00:27:26.000So we have Abbott there, obviously saying, you know, he's not going to back down the Biden administration's pressure, the Supreme Court ruling.
00:27:34.000I think a lot of people have taken this out of context and they're saying that the Supreme Court told Texas to take down all the razor wire or that the Biden administration was going to take down all the razor wire.
00:27:47.000But of course, you have all these other states saying that they're going to support Greg Abbott in his fight.
00:27:52.000And then, of course, President Trump comes in completely over the top with his truth social post.
00:27:58.000We had just gotten done talking to Caroline Levitt on Human Events Daily this afternoon, and she had told us that a big truth post was coming out that Trump was going to come out for Greg Abbott.
00:28:08.000So we had a little bit of advance notice on it.
00:28:11.000But then Trump comes in and says, I order all, not order, I welcome or encourage, I think he said, all willing states to send their guardsmen to the border and begin the deportations now.
00:28:24.000He said, just straight up go down and start deporting them, removing them immediately.
00:28:29.000Now, we have yet to see if anyone's going to take up Trump on that on that call, but it's certainly more forceful than I think anything anyone has said, at least in any of these positions.
00:28:38.000The danger, Charlie, is that some people are taking this and actually calling, going online or going on forums, and they're trying to call for mass, you know, mass attacks on government facilities or mass disobedience, mass civil disobedience.
00:28:58.000People talking, oh, we need to go kinetic action.
00:29:03.000And unfortunately, of course, we are not the BLM people, right?
00:29:07.000We are not, our side is not going to get treated like them.
00:29:09.000And Seattle, the city of Seattle just agreed to a $10 million deal to pay the activists, as they call them, the members of Antifa and BLM who were burning down Seattle and set up Chaz in 2020, $10 million because of the police tactics that were used during Chaz.
00:29:27.000That's how it happens to when the left gets activated and does direct action.
00:29:31.000When the right talks about it, guess what happens?
00:29:36.000You get sent to the gulags down with the J-sexers.
00:29:40.000So this is a huge danger here is if the Biden administration is able to find people or just get people to agitate enough so that they start calling for this kind of civil war type activity, the feds are going to swoop in.
00:29:55.000And now suddenly this conversation where we're winning on the optics of this right now, very much support Greg Abbott, make sure it's done under the color of law, the invasion clause of the Constitution, that's all perfect.
00:30:08.000But the minute people start going, oh, patriots need to activate and there's like some people are holding rallies and doing truck, there's like a truck convoy that's going through.
00:30:16.000That's the exact same kind of thing that the feds are going to infiltrate and they're going to use this to go after you.
00:30:20.000They're going to go after your bank account.
00:30:21.000They're going to go after your social media accounts.
00:30:23.000They're going to go after your personal freedom.
00:30:25.000They're going to use it to censor the internet more.
00:30:28.000And oh, by the way, this validates their entire central thesis of why Joe Biden is running to say we need to stop MAGA extremism.
00:31:08.000So they want to try to have, they want to try to have a, you know, young man, you know, that is trying to come into the country, you know, five or six years old, get drowning.
00:31:18.000And they say, oh my goodness, look at this.
00:31:20.000And then they try to make it go viral.
00:31:48.000And I want to be, if any of you guys, I got an email here from somebody and I thought it was a Fed and they said, hey, Charlie, why don't we have a caravan down to the border with our weapons?
00:32:38.000I'm not saying that the actual incident was, but the all-in platforming and overemphasis on that incident, which, by the way, there's a lot more to that incident than people would ever.
00:32:49.000In fact, it's more and more clear that George Floyd was not murdered and he was either drug overdosed or there was something else regarding it, right?
00:34:56.000And I mean, Blake, what I what I think is important, the layers to the border story is so horrific.
00:35:03.000The more the American people learn about this, the more just their stomach just, you know, the pit in their stomach worsens.
00:35:10.000What I think, even accepting that, what really messes, or I don't want to say mess, what I find most appalling.
00:35:19.000The cartels are super awful and they do tons of terrible things.
00:35:22.000But what I think people really can't comprehend, they can comprehend cartels, smuggling, doing all of that bad stuff.
00:35:30.000What people can't get their heads around is how much fake crap is built into our supposed immigration system in order to ensure the end result of de facto open borders.
00:35:44.000What I think stands out the most about that is the complete legal fiction that we have around the idea of like these, you know, their day in court, these immigration hearings.
00:35:56.000So the system we have right now, like, why are they getting released in?
00:36:00.000Well, they arrive and they're given a script.
00:36:03.000All of them are trained in this by NGOs who go to Mexico to help them with this, like legal, you know, legal advisors.
00:36:10.000And these lawyers tell them, well, you're more likely to get an asylum hearing if you have, you know, one of these 10 things that you can claim.
00:36:16.000So claim that you are fleeing political persecution.
00:36:19.000Claim that you're LGBTQIA who wrote this criteria.
00:36:36.000If we win in November, Trump's got to rewrite all this stuff.
00:36:38.000Yeah, like we're allowed to have, you know, we have a process for giving people asylum and the government has been creating this process.
00:36:43.000So what they do is, you know, if you have any of these following things that anyone can just make up, you claim you're seeking asylum and then they're like, well, we have to adjudicate this.
00:36:52.000So here's your, you know, we'll give you this and then we're going to give you an immigration hearing date later.
00:36:58.000And, you know, you can just come into the country and, you know, we have to let you work and support yourself while you wait for your asylum hearing.
00:37:03.000And the average wait for an asylum hearing in many jurisdictions is like minimum three years.
00:37:08.000Some people are getting dates five, even 10 years in the future.
00:37:12.000That is, you have been allowed into America amnesty.
00:37:14.000Because if you don't even show up at that hearing, what happens?
00:37:40.000If the local law enforcement agencies are emboldened or empowered to basically be able to round up illegals and bring them back to the border and then give them like to the front, because they were just dropping them off at ICE and saying, okay, here you go.
00:37:54.000And then ICE was like, in the Obama administration at this time, they were like, oh my gosh, now what do we have to do?
00:38:00.000But this is the point is anything that gets passed in any state, these deep red states have every ability and every right to pass laws so that when that happens, they can pick them up off the street and they just will refuse to do it because of the jurisprudence.
00:38:19.000Because think about how much this is the opposite of things the left cares about.
00:38:22.000So for example, what we talked about last week, civil rights law.
00:38:26.000Civil rights law works through distributed decentralized enforcement.
00:38:30.000Anyone can sue you for supposedly violating a federal civil rights law.
00:38:36.000But even if they don't, the courts can just do this and impose a huge penalty on you.
00:38:40.000And you never actually need the police involved at all.
00:38:42.000We don't need a police agency to enforce civil rights laws.
00:38:46.000Whereas with immigration, imagine if we just had a system where, oh, anyone who has been harmed by you assisting illegal.
00:38:54.000So, for example, any private citizen should be able to sue a company that employs illegal immigrants for just the general harm of you employ illegal immigrants, you're not employing Americans.
00:39:05.000And by the way, any red state, I believe, could pass this.
00:39:07.000I don't think federal governments have barred this.
00:39:11.000And you could easily make it so any private actor could essentially enforce immigration law.
00:39:16.000And if we cared about it, local police and state police would be both allowed and incentivized to locate illegal immigrants and have them brought in to be deported.
00:39:26.000That's what we would do if we cared about our laws.
00:39:28.000Instead, we deliberately have set up a system that is intentionally confusing, inefficient, and fraudulent to get the maximum number of illegals here for what is essentially like a treasonous enabling of a foreign incursion in the US.
00:39:51.000No, I was going to say the word you use right there.
00:39:53.000I mean, when you have an invasion of the country, which is something that obviously early on, the founders were very worried about this because the United States was surrounded by multiple empires.
00:41:22.000There isn't any other word for what if there's an invasion of your country and you're the side of the invaders, you're obviously committing treason.
00:41:30.000In the 1800s, if Texas got invaded, it could take 30 days minimum, maybe 90 days for news to get all the way back to Washington, D.C. and then back to declare yourself your own sovereignty.
00:41:45.000States needed to be empowered to repel an invasion.
00:41:49.000And by every possible criteria, what is happening on the southern border is an invasion.
00:41:54.000And something that, and I told this to Speaker Johnson over the weekend, we had a very spirited conversation and we'll see what happens.
00:42:01.000I don't know if it's going to make any impact or not.
00:42:03.000But I told him, I said, one of the things that we're not doing a good enough job of is we are not talking about how this is a sophisticated, strategic, planned out operation.
00:42:15.000This is not just a bunch of, you know, the people think when people say, well, it's chaos on the border.
00:42:27.000The chaos is that Biden can't get them in quick enough.
00:42:30.000And so what people must understand, we talked about this on the show, and Todd Bensman, to his credit, said this on Steve Bannon's program.
00:42:36.000He said that Biden really hated the images under the underpass.
00:42:42.000Remember that where there was like 5,000 people?
00:42:44.000So Biden personally got upset about that.
00:42:49.000So they said, hey, listen, the problem is not that they're all coming.
00:42:52.000The problem is that people see them in these masses.
00:42:55.000And then Border Patrol and DHS said, well, let me, you know, President Biden or whoever is calling Ron Klain, let me tell you why these are there.
00:43:02.000It's because we're doing DNA testing and we run them through a background check and call their country of origin and say, hey, you know, I got this guy, Mohammed, you know, Saloon.
00:43:12.000from Kazakhstan and the Kazakhstani embassy like, oh, yo, you have that guy?
00:43:40.000I'm not even saying you should let them into the country.
00:43:42.000I'm saying that if you were to do it, then like there's even a like there are individual like metro stations in New York that handle 10,000 people an hour.
00:43:51.000I just want people to understand that not only do we have open borders, the way they're doing open borders is so treasonous.
00:45:17.000They'll bring someone up across the border in other ways.
00:45:20.000They don't have to worry about the DNA testing.
00:45:22.000So the Trump administration had put all of these policies in place to stop the child sex traffickers.
00:45:28.000But now the child sex traffickers are having an absolute bonanza because not only do they get the kids up and then get to sell them, they can just rape them on the way while they're going across as well.
00:45:38.000So when you're seeing these children come across, you have to understand, particularly little girls, sometimes little boys as well, though.
00:45:44.000And this is obviously what everybody remembers President Trump's first interview when he was running for office all the way back in 2015 was with Don Lemon specifically talking about this issue about women and young girls being raped while they were being brought across the border.
00:46:02.000And Don Lemon's like, oh, well, those are women or, you know, they're just victims.
00:46:15.000And so, yes, there are rapists that are on the border that are exploiting women and these policies.
00:46:22.000I want to just close this point, though, to educate the audience on this because it's super wonky.
00:46:26.000So that for the first portion of the Biden administration's term, they were still running the border somewhat through Trump protocol, not totally, largely without knowing it because they're really...
00:46:42.000And so all of a sudden, all these crowds, because they say, okay, the borders are open, these crowds, because they did get rid of Remain in Mexico.
00:47:15.000You know, our title here is Civil War, Texas style.
00:47:17.000We're having this showdown at the border.
00:47:19.000So I think we should explore the topic of, okay, if this is a showdown that's going forward, what should conservatives, or really, what should people who believe in America being a country, what should we do?
00:47:34.000Because we were saying, you know, do you dare them to have the bad visual?
00:47:38.000I kind of want to just make an analogy.
00:47:40.000So the United States Civil War, it opens with that crisis over Fort Sumter where the South shells Fort Sumter.
00:47:47.000And what's not well known is there's this elaborate political game that goes into Fort Sumter before it happens because Fort Sumter is a union fort in southern territory.
00:47:58.000The South is saying, get out, we've seceded.
00:48:00.000Lincoln says, I'm not going to get out, but how do you do that?
00:48:04.000Well, Lincoln goes into this crisis and he's absolutely can't be the one who shoots first.
00:48:09.000We're not going to be the ones who shoot first.
00:48:11.000They have to be the ones who shoot first.
00:48:14.000He's like, these guys are southerners.
00:48:16.000They've got this kind of cavalier culture, this honor culture.
00:48:19.000They won't be able to handle this and they'll do something stupid.
00:48:22.000And so what he announces is, I'm going to send food to Fort Sumter.
00:48:26.000And he just, he kind of provokes Jeff Davis or the locals in Charleston to shoot at Fort Sumter.
00:48:32.000And then he's able to say they shot first.
00:48:34.000I just recite this not to talk about that civil war, but the idea of in any of these political showdown crises, there's sort of this game of escalation.
00:48:46.000And how do you make sure the crisis keeps going without you like losing it, but without you going too far?
00:48:53.000So we have to think, what do we want Abbott?
00:48:55.000What do we want congressional Republicans to do so that as far as this political crisis goes, we achieve what we want of either making them change the policy at the border or making sure that if they don't, that the public is on our side and this produces an election result, which we can then use to fix the border.
00:49:16.000So the main thing that you don't want this, I was just going to say, the main thing you don't want this to become is, like we were just saying, you don't want this to escalate into a civil war.
00:49:25.000You don't want this to escalate in something.
00:49:29.000You want the optics of the Biden administration trying to send people down to open our border.
00:49:35.000You want the optics of people that are stuck on one side and can't get across, right?
00:49:41.000These are the optics that are very damaging for the Biden administration.
00:49:44.000But if this becomes something else, if this becomes something that's larger and gets away from the talking about the invasion and the fact that there is an invasion and fighting the invasion or showing that one guy is on the side of the invasion, then you get into a very, very big problem.
00:50:03.000And so this is obviously, Charlie, this is what our mutual friend was talking about, that there's an acceleration play here where people want to just step on the gas pedal and like, you know, bomb Fort Sumter and just go for it.
00:50:25.000Yeah, well, we should say it here so people will pressure him.
00:50:27.000He was receptive, but so this was, we're talking about Speaker of the House, Johnson.
00:50:32.000And the idea is we were saying, guys, if we're going to have a shutdown, which they chose not to have a shutdown, the communication should be the border thing is a huge existential crisis for America that the Biden administration is deliberately ignoring.
00:50:47.000So what you told Johnson was, literally go to the border, take as many Republicans as will go with you and set up shop on the border, set up a tent, sleeping bags, and say, this is where the crisis is.
00:51:41.000Describe what is happening, videotape what is happening, and then lay out, you know, this is what Republicans want to do, which is secure the border, do XYZ thing.
00:51:50.000And this is what the Biden administration is doing right now.
00:52:35.000Every day, Speaker Johns could say, hey, I will reopen the government.
00:52:38.000Let's just sit down and negotiate here in Eagle Pass.
00:52:41.000And it's so perfect because as long as he's there, they can't spin the shutdown as really being about anything else, which they'll always do.
00:52:48.000That's what's leaving these social security people.
00:52:53.000But, you know, and instead it would say, no, actually, and he has to, he has to gut it out.
00:52:58.000He has to literally just sleep in the tent and you would be known as the speaker who went all in.
00:53:05.000I mean, Tyler, with the base not just like, I mean, by the way, if Republicans want to fix their fundraising problem, he would raise like $10 million overnight.
00:54:51.000But the H2A pieces, because those are over, those are 300,000 people a year that they're using that as a vehicle just to get into the country through quote-unquote legal means.
00:56:47.000If you guys, you ate life-saving medications, including amoxticillin, Z-PAC, which we're going to talk about ZPACs and antibiotics in a little while.
00:56:58.000So you can rest knowing that there are emergency meds on hand, along with the guidebook for safe use from tick bites to COVID to extreme bioterror events.
00:57:32.000And if I would have taken ivermectin, I think on day one, I probably would have saved my kidneys.
00:57:37.000I'm probably going to die early because I'm going to have kidney failure because during ivermectin, which was probably destroys your kidneys.
00:59:30.000I can't imagine Andrew's phone this week of people that had no idea he was involved in politics and he was getting emails and phone calls and text messages.
00:59:39.000I thought you were a good person, Andrew.
01:01:10.000So they're so those guys, like, and they just kind of play a role on Twitter that I think is necessary for, you know, or not necessary, but I guess there's a demand for, right?
01:01:26.000Like, sort of, they, they just, they just, right, right, right.
01:01:29.000But what I'm saying is no matter what happens, they will take the most extreme left-wing position and then they use that to try to go viral on Twitter or on X, whatever it is.
01:01:38.000So it does, they don't even necessarily like personally believe any of the stuff.
01:01:41.000They're just trying to get the left and the resistance to retweet them.
01:01:45.000They used to sell books, like children's books about Robert Mueller and stuff with like his shirt off.
01:02:26.000So you guys piggybacked off of me because you knew what I was saying.
01:02:31.000Because what I was saying is that DEI creates and fosters sinful, unwholesome thought patterns.
01:02:40.000Because when they say we're going to hire people based on race and not competency, and so you start to just say, you know, what's going on here?
01:02:54.000This is the reality the left has created that they craved.
01:02:58.000They want a reality in which your skin color matters for getting hired, for getting jobs.
01:03:03.000And so the natural reaction you have if you have a brain is, well, if they're getting hired based on race, then they're not getting hired based on ability.
01:03:13.000And if they're preferring one race, that race will need less ability.
01:03:17.000So if I have them in a job, they will have a higher likelihood of not being qualified for it.
01:03:28.000The inverse is also true then if you see a white male, like I was saying, you know, with a guy like the name of John Smith, you know, or, you know, you know, Andrew or Chad or Charlie or Blake or Tyler, right?
01:03:44.000Then the only way that that person could have got there is through extreme merit.
01:03:50.000And so I just, I want to make sure the point that I was making is everybody missed it, is that DEI creates worse people and it creates a generation or a country to think in a way that we otherwise would not have thought or that I never would have had that thought growing up.
01:04:07.000But when you prioritize the hiring of race and your life is in suspension at 35,000 feet, you say, boy, I hope he's qualified.
01:04:22.000If you just think, what did we have in the past, you know, hundreds of years ago in Europe?
01:04:26.000Well, you had social classes of like nobility and commoners and such.
01:04:30.000And you can read old stories where, oh, well, you know, this guy only got this job because he's from an elite family of nobles or whatever.
01:04:36.000And that's why they're hired for this.
01:04:38.000And oh, shocker, you know, if you're drawing from a pool that's smaller and gets preferential political treatment, they're less qualified for things.
01:04:45.000And we're kind of just creating new noble classes today or a new caste system, if you want, where, yeah, if you give rank ordering to how good people are based on what their sex is, what their sexual orientation is, what their race is, and certain people who have the right combination of factors are vastly preferred for every job, every promotion, every application slot at a university.
01:05:09.000Then, yeah, anyone who has a brain, which apparently excludes a lot of liberals, will notice what pattern that creates.
01:05:18.000And this will then flow into our next topic, which is the only thing you can do in response to this, because the logical reasoning is airtight and so obvious, is they just actually have to have a psychotic break.
01:05:32.000Like they have, people were having mental breakdowns about this on Twitter, which is why we're very bluntly going to bully one specific person.
01:05:41.000But I just want to finish with this, which is it hasn't phased me at all.
01:05:44.000I have been blown away and encouraged by all of your support.
01:05:47.000And honestly, just kind of the people of the conservative movement, some who I talk to, some who I don't talk to, completely unprompted, getting into the arena and defending me.
01:05:56.000I'm told a lot of people attacked me as well.
01:06:02.000And Matt Walsh did a whole video on it.
01:06:03.000Candace Owens did a whole podcast on it.
01:06:05.000Jordan Peterson set out a bunch of tweets on it, which was very encouraging.
01:06:08.000It means a lot to me because what I said was 100% true.
01:06:12.000And the essence, which everybody missed, is how DEI influences thought patterns and actually creates more racial resentment, not healing and unity.
01:06:22.000With that, Tyler, do you have a final thought?
01:06:25.000After your stuff came out, I started just like researching articles and things like that.
01:06:28.000There was an article that actually was released last year about, oh, it was how racial diversity in TV commercials backfires.
01:06:37.000And it was on this topic, which is exactly the same line of the point you were making, which is, who better than to look at the commercial, the marketers, the marketing agencies who have backed away from DEI because they realize that it's not genuine.
01:07:08.000The point that you're making is that you're actually increasing.
01:07:11.000Everyone, all the left completely missed it, right?
01:07:14.000They acted as if I'd never fly in a plane with a black pilot.
01:07:16.000Well, this is a study that's done by libs that run, that are trying to make money off commercials.
01:07:21.000They're like, oh, yeah, you get actual increased resentment from consumers when you just stick in a black guy in a commercial just because of DEI.
01:08:22.000Everybody looked at me in that party and went, oh, that guy's just here because he's like the token American comedic relief for this group.
01:08:32.000It's the same way, like if you were hosting a party and you brought somebody in that was just there just because everyone not knowing that person would be like, why is this person here as part of this party?
01:08:42.000And it's like the commercial thing is that people, people always will point that out.
01:08:47.000And you're thinking about that more than the actual activity of life.
01:08:50.000Yes, it creates more racial consciousness, which they want less of.
01:08:53.000So whether it's like you're flying on a plane or you're going to a party, when you're watching a commercial, whatever it might be, if it's not genuine, then people are going to focus on that.
01:09:04.000And if you're focusing on skin color because that you don't understand why that person's there, it's like out of the matrix, then you're going to have problems.
01:09:12.000You're going to have intrinsic racism.
01:09:14.000Blake, let's get to the final topic here.
01:09:17.000Well, so we have a kind of follow-up thing on this.
01:09:21.000We mentioned a lot of people, we want to get into the aftermath of what we said here.
01:09:25.000And what happened is, like I said, people online just totally lost their minds over this.
01:09:32.000And when I say lost their minds, I mean like pointing, sputtering, crying, vomiting, pooping themselves, pulling the poop out of their pants, smearing it on their faces, screaming at the mirror.
01:09:44.000One of the people doing this was a fellow Jack is also very familiar with.
01:10:01.000He's, you know, he's got what we might call an IPA bod.
01:10:04.000I don't know that he's ever done, you know, a bench press or other is a low vitamin D level.
01:10:10.000Yeah, he doesn't have, you know, not the best physical expression of the genes within his body.
01:10:14.000And he's a kind of left-wing stats guy, except really far left people hate him because he does all these posts on Twitter about how Biden's economy is great.
01:11:02.000I actually finished, I think I finished our last episode saying, I think I said it very quickly, but I said, you know, shout out to Steve Saylor, the godfather of thought crime.
01:11:13.000And, you know, we'd been discussing his drowning article.
01:11:16.000And, you know, we, we sort of always talk about, you know, these various things and DEI and everything.
01:11:21.000And so that, you know, I just kind of said, shout out to the godfather of thought crime.
01:11:25.000Little did I know that, um, so Charlie, this guy, Will Stancil, basically had been commenting on the clip that went viral, loses his mind over it.
01:11:35.000I don't know if he watched our full episode and saw the shout out, but has just been pummeling these people with stats and facts and figures and studies and real-world empirical examples of all of the things that we've been talking about.
01:11:53.000And it's, it's quite literally just, I mean, this, this guy, Will Stancil, I think his brains are going to start seeping out of his nostrils at some point here.
01:12:02.000His head, his head might actually physically explode.
01:12:05.000And so some of the stuff that's hilarious, like 158, he's like, let me be clear.
01:12:11.000If you follow or respect Steve Saylor, unfollow me and block me.
01:12:16.000He is an unreconstructed racist creep.
01:12:20.000And I hope he's miserable every second of his worthless life.
01:12:26.000Words do not exist to express the depths of my contempt for this oozing postule of a human being.
01:12:36.000And that one, that's part of his obsession that Steve Saylor is this extremely miserable person, which I've met Steve Saylor.
01:12:58.000Whereas Will Stancil definitely exudes it.
01:13:01.000And the reason we've had on the bottom of the screen here hick libs, it's because of this tweet, which he just perfectly represents this concept.
01:13:09.000He tweeted this during the whole meltdown today.
01:13:12.000I'm a southerner and grew up with a million of these dumb hicks.
01:13:19.000And so to them, everything in the entire world can be explained by racism being entirely true.
01:13:27.000And so what a hick lib is, and Jack can elaborate on this too, is there's a type of liberal who what they did is they grew up somewhere usually in middle America, could be the south, could be the Midwest, could, you know, could be a small city, small town.
01:14:34.000A lot of people have done, Mr. Gribb has done this one of these as well.
01:14:38.000That guy, Oliver Anthony, is a great example of this, someone who kind of has the, you know, they have the sort of like southern Midwestern Appalachia kind of aesthetics.
01:14:47.000You know, they seem like the kind of person that would be like a Trump supporter, but then they start talking and you realize, oh, wait a minute, this guy's like a lefty.
01:14:58.000You know, they usually have done some time in like one of the cities back east or they, you know, they feel like they should be among the rich men of Richmond.
01:15:09.000And so like the bitter southerner is actually the name of one of the hicclib publications out there.
01:15:13.000That's just pretty much their banner publication.
01:15:16.000And you see this a lot, by the way, in the country music world.
01:15:19.000You see a lot of country music, huge names that'll come out.
01:15:23.000People associated will, they'll be from like West Texas or they'll be from like Nashville.
01:15:28.000And then they come up and they go on TV and they start espousing these extremely left-wing views, particularly on race, but also on economics and things like this.
01:15:37.000And you're kind of wondering, like, wait a minute, everybody I know from that area is like, you know, as red as the day is long.
01:15:45.000Versus me, we're like, I'm, I'm like, whatever the opposite of that is because I'm from, I'm like, I'm like from an East Coast urban area, but I, you know, I turned out like this.
01:15:54.000So I'm like, I'm whatever the opposite of that is.
01:15:58.000And I definitely don't listen to like, I don't think any, we had that whole thing where none of us really listen to country music, except I think Andrew.
01:16:06.000And, you know, we're, we're not your typical, I guess, like conservative podcast because of that.
01:16:13.000You know, we, we've come to these ideas because we realized that the places that we're from, everything was breaking down and falling apart.
01:16:18.000And so this guy, Will Stancil, very self-loathing, very much hates the people that he grew up around, very much hates their entire way of being and just thinks that he should be in control so that he can, you know, progress them into a world where they accept people who are different, where they accept immigrants, where they accept refugees from Africa and the third world and all of, you know, Blake, obviously, as you've talked about, this all fits together.
01:17:52.000We are this close to victory on so many fronts.
01:17:56.000And so if I see any black pillars out there, I am going to trap them in quicksand.
01:18:01.000Moral of the story: don't let them boss you around.
01:18:03.000Don't let them boss you around on the border.
01:18:05.000Don't let them tell you, oh, you're speaker of the house.
01:18:07.000You can't go do a camping trip to the border.
01:18:09.000And don't let them tell you that you have to feel comfortable when you have like a pilot who doesn't seem entirely there.
01:18:17.000Tyler, why don't we close out by previewing Monday?
01:18:21.000Yeah, I mean, Monday, we've got 70 of the top 100 county chairs that matter in America coming together to Vegas to meet with the largest grassroots organizations in the country.
01:18:33.000We've got Charlie Kirk, we got Donald Trump Jr., we've got Steve Bannon, we've got Jack Pesobic speaking, we've got Mike Lindell, we've got Scott Pressler.
01:18:42.000We have the fight that we're bringing right to the doorstep of the RNC saying these are all the things that we should be doing at the Republican Party that you're not doing.
01:18:52.000And, you know, I think I hope it takes notice.
01:18:55.000I hope the grassroots is enlivened, they're enriched by it, and that we can actually go back to our home states and win.
01:19:01.000It's going to be amazing coming on Monday.
