Transcript
00:00:00.060
Welcome to the podcast. It's Pat and Stu in for Glenn today as he's on vacation.
00:00:04.700
I don't know if you noticed this. There's a big Supreme Court ruling that came out on Friday.
00:00:12.900
You know, people don't follow this like they used to.
00:00:17.060
But we talked a good amount about the Dobbs case that overturned Roe versus Wade on Friday.
00:00:22.320
Huge, huge development in just the scope of everything and the scope of the idiotic reaction
00:00:26.980
from the left to it, as you might expect. That was very prominent today.
00:00:31.400
Also, in the middle of the show, another big Supreme Court case broke.
00:00:35.400
You can hear that break live on the air, as it always seems to do in our hour two broadcast.
00:00:41.400
That's the Kennedy-Bremerton decision, which is the one about prayer.
00:00:46.260
Can you do that at school or can you do it only the inside walls of the church?
00:00:50.060
And that is something that Anna Navarro brings to us later on in the show,
00:00:53.440
where she just explains she's Catholic when she's in church.
00:00:58.320
And when you're outside at church, you can't also be Catholic.
00:01:07.180
The Pope, certainly, he's just Catholic when he's in the Vatican.
00:01:16.620
So make sure you subscribe to the podcast and rate and review as well.
00:01:19.260
A couple other podcasts I'd like to turn you on to real quick.
00:01:24.460
You can subscribe to his podcast and rate and review him as well.
00:01:29.780
I know we're going to be talking a lot about these issues as well.
00:01:37.920
You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:55.740
It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:59.380
The Roe ruling actually came down while you guys were on the air on Friday, right?
00:02:05.460
That every single Supreme Court release of opinion happens during hour two of this program.
00:02:11.700
So, Pat, we've had many memories over the years of this happening, like the Obamacare decision happening live on the air.
00:02:22.020
We will have Supreme Court opinions coming down in our hour two today as well.
00:02:29.060
I mean, obviously, the Dobbs case for abortion, Roe versus Wade being overturned, is going to be the marquee thing for God only knows how long.
00:02:37.980
But there's a huge case with the EPA and the administrative state is on trial, basically, in that one.
00:02:44.180
And that one may be more specific to everybody's life, right?
00:02:49.620
Like, that's one that can affect everyday life, where this is a case basically questioning whether these, you know, administrative state apparatus can just do things on their own.
00:03:02.940
You know, can they just, what if they want to regulate CO2 emissions on their own?
00:03:13.920
I mean, this country has been completely remade from what it was supposed to be by the administrative state.
00:03:25.860
There's a huge one on the border coming up about the remain in Mexico law.
00:03:31.580
So, we will have those in hour two of the program.
00:03:36.540
They'll probably announce another decision day this week.
00:03:40.520
The Dobbs case, though, is still, it's not a one-day story, Pad.
00:03:49.560
Did Biden speak in time for you guys to play his thoughts on Friday?
00:03:55.260
I talked about it on Studios America on my show, which airs later on in the day here on Blaze TV.
00:04:05.120
Here's what Joe had to say about the ruling initially.
00:04:12.500
Today is a, it's not hyperbole to suggest, a very solemn moment.
00:04:19.700
Today, the Supreme Court of the United States expressly took away the constitutional right from the American people.
00:04:41.280
It's a sad day for the court and for the country.
00:04:45.180
50 years ago, Roe v. Wade was decided and has been the law of the land since then.
00:04:51.980
This landmark case protected a woman's right to choose.
00:04:55.540
A right to make intensely personal decisions with her doctor.
00:05:07.300
Women have the power to control their own destiny.
00:05:10.560
And it reinforced a fundamental right of privacy.
00:05:14.180
The right of each of us to choose how to live our lives.
00:05:17.840
You don't have the privacy to kill human beings.
00:05:29.120
As chairman or ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
00:05:30.860
Is that why they always make the distinction public execution?
00:05:38.720
I've overseen more Supreme Court confirmations than anyone today.
00:05:47.560
I believe Roe v. Wade was the correct decision.
00:05:53.520
The fundamental right to privacy and liberty in matters of family and personal autonomy.
00:06:01.660
Which you don't have with the vaccine, by the way.
00:06:04.700
A careful balance between a woman's right to choose earlier in her pregnancy and the state's
00:06:24.980
Arguing there is a broad national consensus is not one of them.
00:06:34.180
It's one that I think the other side is completely insane on.
00:06:38.560
I mean, frankly, I can't even understand the arguments most of the time.
00:06:45.320
However, I can even acknowledge there's not a national consensus on abortion.
00:06:52.400
I mean, there's a national consensus basically on certain aspects of it.
00:06:56.160
Like, for example, you shouldn't have it in the third trimester.
00:06:58.460
There's basically a national consensus that the stated platform position of the Democratic Party is against the consensus that we could be clear on.
00:07:07.720
Other than that, really, there's not much of one.
00:07:12.580
I mean, life of the mother, even in all these states that are, you know, banning abortion like Texas, there's still an exception for life of the mother.
00:07:20.480
That was basically in the Kavanaugh concurrence that, you know, signified, look, if you go after life of the mother, we're not going to rule on your side on that.
00:07:30.020
Like, I mean, that one seems to be the one that there's pretty much consensus on, I guess.
00:07:40.000
And, you know, even he is at odds with himself.
00:07:47.900
I do not view abortion as a choice and a right.
00:07:58.920
And I think we should be focusing on how to limit the number of abortions.
00:08:02.420
And they ought to be able to have a common ground and consensus as to do that.
00:08:12.800
If that was a clip from 1982, which, by the way, he was still, you know, in public office then, maybe you could say, all right, it's been a while.
00:08:31.220
I mean, and, you know, I want to ask you this, Pat, because I was thinking about this over the weekend.
00:08:35.320
And there's so much to think about in this case.
00:08:37.680
And we could talk, we could honestly talk about this the whole time, I'm sure.
00:08:40.820
But would this, could this have happened in the era where Democrats sounded like that?
00:08:48.700
Like, when Democrats were pitching the safe, legal, and rare thing, when they were saying, look, it's always a tragedy.
00:08:57.880
This is a, essentially, a necessary evil, was their case.
00:09:04.120
But gosh, sometimes these circumstances require it and we wish they didn't.
00:09:17.160
We went from the safe, legal, and rare era to the shout your abortion era.
00:09:38.800
Because of some of that craziness, you could argue that's why Trump got elected in the first place.
00:09:44.080
You could argue that was why Republicans were more apt to go along with justices who were, who they were really confident would overturn Roe versus Wade.
00:09:54.140
I think you can argue, you know, remember, Republicans had enough justices to overturn this in place many times.
00:10:00.880
And the reason why it didn't happen was because of people like Anthony Kennedy, who would flake at the last minute and decide, oh, well, we've got a compromise position.
00:10:14.520
Both Roe versus Wade and Casey versus Planned Parenthood were terrible decisions.
00:10:19.520
And a lot of it, especially Casey, seemed to be fueled on this, well, we can't really shake things up that much.
00:10:25.440
You know, I don't think it's right to shake things up that much.
00:10:27.880
We've obviously seen that sort of behavior from John Roberts.
00:10:43.420
And again, he even he essentially says in his concurring opinion.
00:10:53.460
You know, it seems a little upsetting and I don't want to be mean.
00:10:58.860
I mean, it really does seem like he he even is clear how bad it is.
00:11:09.480
But 15 weeks is rational and there's some sort of rational position.
00:11:13.280
He wanted to do essentially what Casey did, which was come up with some new standard that as as Alito pointed out, neither side in this case even asked for.
00:11:24.740
It wasn't just like it was the conservative side saying, hey, let's get rid of this.
00:11:29.180
And the liberal side was saying, let just 15 weeks or give us some other new standard that we can all work with.
00:11:55.660
You you and I have said many times there's no way they're going to overturn Roe v.
00:12:03.920
Do you have any confidence this court will do it?
00:12:08.820
The Democrats all thought, yeah, oh, they're going to.
00:12:14.500
The one time I will be very pleased to admit both they are right and I was wrong.
00:12:25.340
And to be clear, in some ways, the same things we always worried about, one of the conservative
00:12:36.880
And it sort of occurred with Kavanaugh, who wrote a concurring opinion that basically
00:12:45.020
I mean, I'm going along with this, but I'm a little wishy-washy on it.
00:12:48.440
You know, like it almost didn't happen this time.
00:12:59.460
Yeah, the way they say 5-3-1, essentially, like when it comes to Dobbs, he went along
00:13:06.240
with it, but he did not want to overturn Roe v. Wade, which is incredible.
00:13:13.000
And it's incredible to step back on how many times Republicans missed with these Supreme
00:13:20.820
I mean, they just missed and missed and missed and missed.
00:13:23.900
The only person you'd say, we don't have evidence of them missing on this particular
00:13:29.580
Who seemingly went 3-for-3, or at least got 3-for-3 on this.
00:13:41.160
Now, a lot of people have fought for this for a really long time.
00:13:44.860
But President Trump deserves a lot of credit for this.
00:13:50.800
And interestingly, he said he would come in and pick off a list of 21 Supreme Court justices,
00:13:56.560
basically hand-selected by the Federalist Society.
00:13:58.560
And so, the Federalist Society also deserves a lot of credit on this.
00:14:04.480
He picked Gorsuch from that list and then expanded the list.
00:14:07.520
So, his other two picks, both Kavanaugh and Barrett, were not on the initial list.
00:14:13.020
He did not actually pick all three justices from the list.
00:14:18.800
And the belief is, particularly with Kavanaugh, that Kennedy was just not going to step down
00:14:24.460
unless he had the guy he wanted to step in for him.
00:14:28.340
Anyway, long story short, he picked three and they were all right on this one.
00:14:32.220
And honestly, like, we could talk about elections.
00:14:39.400
I mean, like, Kavanaugh could suck from here on out and it would be disappointing.
00:14:43.900
But the fact that this came through is already Trump's legacy, right?
00:14:53.140
You know, look, people, and we bash him all the time.
00:14:56.460
And we, also, Mitch McConnell deserves credit for this.
00:15:01.560
He delayed that, which is why they call it illegitimate, illegitimate Supreme Court.
00:15:11.540
They did something they're perfectly within their rights to do.
00:15:15.140
You're talking about the Merrick Garland delay.
00:15:21.220
He waited until Trump became president, which gave us Gorsuch.
00:15:24.120
Although, I will point out, the Republicans held the Senate at that time.
00:15:27.480
So, even if there was a vote and he didn't hold the line.
00:15:30.400
They likely would have rejected whoever it was, which would have been okay.
00:15:33.900
But, I mean, he also pushed, you know, he got all three of these through the Senate.
00:15:42.480
And then the third name we really need to give credit to, Pat, is Harry Reid.
00:15:47.480
Because without Harry Reid upending the judicial filibuster in 2013.
00:16:00.600
Elizabeth Warren's asking for packing the court.
00:16:05.820
Because you grabbed power with no justification.
00:16:15.380
This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program, and we really want to thank you for listening.
00:16:29.400
Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program this week.
00:16:31.820
You know, something we talk about from time to time is how passionate the left is about abortion.
00:16:46.280
It's more of a religion, I think, than even climate change is.
00:16:54.620
The fact that they can kill babies is just so important to them.
00:17:03.420
And so, when they perceive that they've lost that right, which, again, they really haven't lost the right.
00:17:11.640
There's still going to be places where you can get abortions if you really want it.
00:17:26.200
She's got knee pads on because she's very animated about the Roe v. Wade decision.
00:17:51.680
I don't want to be a flip-flopper here, but in her case, she should be able to abort her kids.
00:17:56.100
You know, I just don't think any of us are arguing for her to be a parent.
00:18:06.600
It's so weird, too, the performative nature of it.
00:18:08.900
Because, you know, if you're listening to radio, you can only hear the screaming and the bleeping.
00:18:13.960
She's in a leopard print, like, onesie thing, leotard deal.
00:18:19.900
And someone else, crucially, is holding the camera.
00:18:25.500
As if they think this is a good representation of their movement.
00:18:30.380
Hey, honey, you film me while I throw a pillow down and then just go ape crap on video.
00:18:48.100
Hey, Pat, let me break in here real quick just to give you a little news update.
00:18:51.440
We are now in the middle of Supreme Court time.
00:19:02.220
I think, I don't know if you had him on, Pat, on Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:19:07.660
A coach who was praying at the 50-yard line after his games, never asking anybody to come
00:19:22.000
Again, something that's not in the U.S. Constitution.
00:19:26.360
Another thing that isn't in the U.S. Constitution.
00:19:29.180
But that one was written by Gorsuch, a 6-3 decision, as you would expect.
00:19:35.460
Sotomayor, Breyer, and Kagan on the wrong side of that, as they always are.
00:19:41.540
That was one of the three or four big ones remaining.
00:19:52.780
I mean, if you're a Supreme Court justice, you should know the Constitution well enough
00:19:58.660
to understand separation of church and state is not really a thing in the United States
00:20:07.220
The only thing about the church and state is that the state shall not establish a religion.
00:20:14.760
They shall not make no law establishing a religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.
00:20:24.060
I mean, literally to the point, Pat, that they encouraged states to form their own state
00:20:31.060
There were state churches in effect when this went on.
00:20:34.420
One of the first acts of the Congress was to have a prayer.
00:20:41.680
And of course, we still have congressional days of prayer from time to time.
00:20:49.940
And this is not even that we're not even talking about like, oh, well, Congress should get
00:20:53.900
together and pray every day on, you know, on the floor of, you know, of the Senate or
00:20:58.060
whatever, which they do, which they do, by the way, and still do.
00:21:00.880
And they still have national days of prayer and all this stuff still occurs.
00:21:07.100
This is basically a coach who after the games, because he had a crazy life and decided
00:21:13.260
after all these games would end, he said, you know what?
00:21:16.900
I've gone through so much, I'm going to thank God every day.
00:21:20.340
And after these games, I'm just going to go to the 50 yard line, take a knee, say a silent
00:21:24.900
And you can only take a knee if it's in protest of the United States flag.
00:21:34.700
The same people who will say Colin Kaepernick has a right to be able to.
00:21:40.640
Now, of course, in a private business like that, he doesn't actually have a right to
00:21:46.900
Now, he can't get on the field because he's such a terrible quarterback, but if he could
00:21:51.000
get on the field, I don't necessarily care if he does it.
00:21:53.740
I don't take my political advice from athletes.
00:21:59.260
I try to come up with those opinions on my own so they can come up with their own dumb
00:22:02.780
opinions all they want and express them however they want.
00:22:06.760
But the NFL has, they can absolutely stop them from doing that if they want to.
00:22:10.660
But however, like, I guess you're able to fire a coach for just taking a knee and praying.
00:22:18.920
This First Amendment, the freedom of religion, does not stop at your door, does not stop at
00:22:24.780
It is something you're able to do, just like we just learned, or at least the left just
00:22:31.920
The Second Amendment also doesn't stop at your front door.
00:22:37.000
It is a right, and you can carry your gun around, and they shall issue it to you, that
00:22:44.300
So anyway, long story short, that is a big case, probably one of the biggest ones remaining
00:22:49.780
that you are apparently, you do have some religious liberty.
00:22:54.600
This court, I will say, has been good on these issues, and people, let me give credit where
00:22:58.980
credit is due as well, to First Liberty Institute.
00:23:02.000
Friends of the show, you know, all those guys over there, Jeremy Dice, and, you know, the
00:23:07.840
whole crew, has done such a great job in being relentless, pushing for religious liberty,
00:23:20.680
I mean, they argued in front of the Supreme Court.
00:23:24.580
They've shepherded this thing through all the way and did an incredible thing.
00:23:29.880
You know, there's been a lot of criticism of conservatism, of originalism, of the conservative
00:23:38.840
I mean, it's hard to argue with this right now.
00:23:41.900
You know, this has been an incredible achievement, and I think, you look at it, everybody from
00:23:46.840
all aspects of conservatism has made this stuff possible.
00:23:49.840
You know, you can look, we named a few of the names, President Trump, even people like
00:23:53.600
Mitch McConnell, First Liberty Institute, the Federalist Society.
00:23:57.120
These are widely varying views in a lot of these groups, but all generally just wanted
00:24:02.200
the Constitution respected, and we're seeing that happen.
00:24:05.980
And that's, I mean, another, as you mentioned, another great ruling.
00:24:09.640
Maybe we'll get one on climate change as well, which would be great.
00:24:13.620
They've got an environmental opinion coming up.
00:24:18.700
There's, so we just got another one, it's Concepcion, which we'll go through here in a
00:24:23.360
But not, EPA versus West Virginia is the, I don't know, maybe the biggest one I'm looking
00:24:28.660
Um, because that one I think will, they might save that till Thursday or Friday or something.
00:24:35.700
I will say they are always up for surprises, aren't they?
00:24:40.320
I thought that would be the last one they announced.
00:24:44.120
They leave these, these sort of, uh, controversial ones to the last day.
00:24:52.720
We do know that we have at least one more coming here as we speaking, um, as we're sitting
00:25:01.320
Well, we'll go through, we'll go through the whole, this whole thing in just a minute
00:25:04.900
But, uh, this was, uh, we will at least have one more coming today.
00:25:13.940
Now, does the coach, by the way, does the coach get his job back?
00:25:16.600
Did they, I asked him that in the interview and I can't remember what he said.
00:25:21.020
I think he, I think he was actually open to it.
00:25:26.880
I told him I would like, I, I would hate these people.
00:25:35.340
Like his perspective was number one, he's not like a pastor.
00:25:44.960
But he is not the guy who is going, you know, who is like, every time you talk to him, he's
00:25:51.640
He's just like totally a normal guy who just believed he wanted to pray.
00:25:56.960
Like it was, he's not like, you know, what you would think of when you think of a guy standing
00:26:02.600
Did they warn him or ask him to do this somewhere else?
00:26:06.720
So what initially he started, if I'm remembering the story right, I think I am.
00:26:11.500
Initially, he started doing it by himself at the 50 yard line.
00:26:24.880
He started, some of the players started gathering.
00:26:27.080
Over time, even the other teams would start coming and gathering at, at the center of the field.
00:26:31.820
That's unacceptable because you got a whole bunch of people praying.
00:26:37.660
Now that's a terrible point and not true, but that's what they said.
00:26:41.520
And the school came to him and said, look, we know, we know we love you and everything,
00:26:45.520
but you can't do it because people, everyone's, you can't bring other people involved because
00:26:50.300
people are worried that you'll have influence over them.
00:26:57.140
So he told them, look, you guys can't come with me and pray out in the center because it's
00:27:02.360
So then he went out and started doing it by himself again and they still fired him.
00:27:07.260
So he was only doing it by himself and specifically asked for other people not to join.
00:27:11.500
And, um, but his opinion seemed to be closer to, look, I don't think they wanted to do this
00:27:20.740
Again, shows the ignorance in this country about things that are not in the United States
00:27:31.000
And just because people say it over and over and over that there's separation of church
00:27:39.900
So people get into this little world where I'm sorry, you can't, you can't bring religion
00:27:51.920
Of course I can, but that's not the perception and the perception has been reality for a long
00:28:03.060
Religious liberty is really doing well right now.
00:28:04.640
And I think, you know, I'm hoping for one of the big things I'm hoping for is that many
00:28:08.880
more of these cases and hopefully a definitive one gets to the Supreme Court as it relates
00:28:12.900
to not just, uh, not just church, but churches specifically when it comes to all the COVID
00:28:18.820
You know, the fact that they were trying to force churches to close down.
00:28:27.020
And we've seen low, some lower courts have issues with them and get some of that stuff
00:28:32.760
But I would like to see one of these things go up to the, to the, to the Supreme Court
00:28:37.200
level and have it be very clear that the government can make recommendations.
00:28:41.320
They can say, Hey, this is what we think you should do.
00:28:51.060
They cannot stop you from opening your business.
00:28:53.020
I don't think that should happen either, but certainly when it comes to a house of
00:28:58.460
worship, the government absolutely should not be able to do that.
00:29:03.420
And, uh, you know, look, most churches went along with the advice and just decided, look,
00:29:12.700
If they want, if that's what they believe the decision is, they, they can make that decision.
00:29:23.020
And the, the whole theory is so upside down, like the state needs to be protected from
00:29:32.980
The problem was religion being protected from the state.
00:29:50.860
Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
00:29:52.760
What are we, a week from the 4th of July, right?
00:29:59.500
If you, you still have a chance to get the greatest cookie on earth.
00:30:04.820
If you want by the 4th of July, we can guarantee delivery.
00:30:08.460
If you order today from Kexi.com today's the day.
00:30:13.380
I will say I've had this last batch of cookies you've produced.
00:30:24.680
But the one that I had a special relationship with was the coconut cream.
00:30:43.180
We've been discussing the incredible insanity coming out of the left since the verdict.
00:30:52.220
We've been warned for the last, how long has it been since the verdict was leaked?
00:30:58.080
And we've been warned the whole time to expect violence from both sides.
00:31:06.980
Why would we, on the right, go out and, you know, overturn cop cars and set buildings on fire?
00:31:28.140
That's really, and that's one of the reasons why January 6th really pisses me off.
00:31:32.060
Because now they have this one thing to point to.
00:31:40.860
I mean, like, you know, obviously there have been, over the years, unfortunately, a couple
00:31:46.000
of high-profile abortion protester types that have done really terrible things and have
00:31:50.940
been immediately condemned by every single person I've ever known on the right.
00:31:57.680
You know, Eric Rudolph and, you know, the Kansas abortion killer.
00:32:05.800
I would not deny that there have been a couple.
00:32:08.140
It's been very, very limited over the course of a 50-year battle.
00:32:13.220
Especially when the stakes are 65 million lives.
00:32:16.920
Like, when you think of how, what a life and death situation this is, I mean, in some
00:32:22.240
ways you're surprised there hasn't been more terrible behavior.
00:32:25.260
It's really been done, as we mentioned before the break, within the bounds of the system,
00:32:32.640
You have, you elect people, you, you, but before that, long before that, there was a,
00:32:38.600
a, a long-term grooming of conservative legal scholars, activists who fought every day,
00:32:46.140
who did things like the, uh, the, the March for Life, right?
00:32:50.940
Year after year after year, gathered when it seemed completely hopeless.
00:32:58.420
When you turn on your favorite conservative talk show and you'd hear Pat Gray and Stubergear
00:33:06.100
I mean, I didn't really believe it was that dire, but I never thought I would see the day.
00:33:14.100
And there's a lot more to do on this, on this fight.
00:33:16.580
I mean, it doesn't, you know, we really have prevented no abortions at this point when
00:33:21.920
It just gives you the opportunity to argue for these things.
00:33:24.200
And in some of these states now, some of these abortions will not occur.
00:33:28.960
That means there'll be people who will be alive, will have a chance at life that did
00:33:34.040
And I don't know how, I don't know how you can be fighting on the other side of that
00:33:40.800
And they make it, they make it an issue of race when we want to prevent abortions in
00:33:48.220
minority areas, you know, 80% of abortion clinics are in predominantly black areas, black and
00:33:59.780
That says, okay, we want to abort and kill as many minorities as we possibly can.
00:34:15.220
It really is incredible that how that, how this has been spun.
00:34:18.180
I mean, and you listen to the coverage of this, which is not every major media organization
00:34:24.600
sent reporters to abortion clinics that found out about the ruling and then had to call
00:34:30.820
quote unquote patients to tell them they could not come in because Roe versus Wade was overturned
00:34:37.580
and now abortions are illegal in their state and them crying and sobbing about how they want
00:34:49.740
And it's like, is there no, no awareness in the press that the other side exists to
00:34:59.660
And, you know, one of the reasons that the black population has stayed in this country
00:35:04.040
between 12 and 14% for a hundred years is because of abortion is because they're hard.
00:35:12.960
They're disproportionately aborted more than whites.
00:35:21.740
And you know, we, we, and you know, who doesn't want it to stop the left, the left and Margaret
00:35:27.320
This is why she started Planned Parenthood in the beginning.
00:35:37.560
They worship at the altar of Planned Parenthood and abortion.
00:35:42.460
And there's just simply no way to get around it for the left that you can call us racists
00:35:51.580
There's a big case that's going to be coming in the next session on affirmative action.
00:35:55.020
And I think there's a good chance that that gets limited in a major way by this court.
00:35:59.240
And it should, you should not be making decisions by skin color.
00:36:02.720
That's something that we used to all agree on and is now apparently wrong.
00:36:06.280
But you can call us racists for a hundred different things.
00:36:09.280
What we want the minimum wage level to be, what you think, you know, voter ID, all these
00:36:18.640
But the bottom line to all of this is, if you implemented every single one of our policies,
00:36:25.520
limiting welfare spending, voter ID, affirmative action, all these things, all to the conservative
00:36:32.480
utopia, what the end result of all those policies would be is tens of millions of minorities
00:36:45.460
But more than are thriving now would be thriving because of the policies.
00:36:55.960
Some of them will solve society's great problems.
00:37:01.120
Some of them will be crappy waiters at Chili's that screw up your order.
00:37:06.380
Some of them will be the guy that cut you off in traffic.
00:37:09.180
Some of them will be career criminals, but all of them deserve a chance to live their
00:37:15.300
You don't get to make this decision in advance for them.
00:37:19.520
They might wind up screwing their life up entirely.
00:37:25.560
I'm fascinated at the idea that it's better for society that people should just be executed
00:37:31.560
before they've done anything, before they've taken their first breath outside the womb.
00:37:36.240
Let's kill them because they might be a drain on society.
00:37:50.080
You look at white supremacy groups today and they are not pro-life.
00:37:56.120
White supremacy groups support the right to abortion.
00:38:00.880
And they will explicitly tell you the reason they do is because they like the fact that
00:38:08.220
black and Hispanic babies keep getting aborted.
00:38:15.640
So if you want to be on the side of white supremacy and also not coincidentally the Democrats,
00:38:21.740
because they've been lined up for generations, hop on board to that pro-choice movement.
00:38:29.080
It's working out well if that is your philosophy to life.
00:38:32.000
But in reality, I don't understand how anyone can support this craziness.
00:38:41.220
There's a column in the New York Times today by someone named Pamela Paul.
00:38:51.360
As the 4th of July looms with its flags and its barbecues and its full-throated patriotism,
00:38:55.860
I find myself mulling over the idea of American exceptionalism.
00:38:59.720
What, if anything, makes this country different from other countries or from the rest of the
00:39:04.700
developed world in terms of morals and our ideals?
00:39:07.760
In what ways do our distinct values inform how America treats its own citizens?
00:39:18.500
Witness the ruthless evisceration of Roe versus Wade and expand.
00:39:23.160
So, how about the ruthless evisceration of the babies inside the womb?
00:39:28.720
Up to and including a full-grown infant coming out of the birth canal
00:39:32.620
and being torn apart and murdered right then and there.
00:39:39.660
How, what lack of self-awareness could you have as a human being to literally define mercy
00:39:47.740
as the constitutional right for one person to kill another?
00:39:58.620
I can understand you thinking the way of Joe Biden in 2006.
00:40:07.060
We want it safe, we want it rare, but we don't want it to occur.
00:40:10.660
This is a totally different worldview than that person in 2006.
00:40:15.460
Now, by the way, Joe Biden now holds the same worldview that I just discussed
00:40:20.740
But it's like this idea that murdering 65 million people is mercy is psychotic.
00:40:28.680
It is exactly the eugenic philosophy that led to what we saw in World War II.
00:40:37.000
It is what Margaret Sanger believed and has continued to try to carry out against this country through
00:40:45.580
Planned Parenthood and other organizations all of this time.
00:40:48.700
And it is fascinating that that has been presented and continues to be presented as this empathetic
00:40:55.180
We're supposed to listen to abortion clinic doctors who are unable to kill children for
00:41:00.360
a day and hear them sob and feel, oh my gosh, these poor people now have to drive an extra
00:41:08.080
That's supposed to be the empathetic side of the argument.
