Today on the Matt Walsh Show, yesterday we broke the story of massive fraud in the gender
00:00:04.040
transition industry. The fallout has already started, while the left scrambles to make
00:00:07.880
excuses. Also, the federal government reportedly repairs to indict Donald Trump for doing the same
00:00:12.280
thing that Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton did, but it was okay when they did it, of course.
00:00:16.640
A new report reveals that Instagram is a major hub for pedophiles. Plus, a family in Las Vegas
00:00:21.880
says that 10-foot space aliens landed in their backyard. Has the invasion finally started?
00:00:26.920
Seems that it has. We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Walsh Show.
00:00:38.440
Congress once again allowed itself to be pushed into appeasing the administration and raising the
00:00:42.540
debt ceiling for the 79th time, paving the way for continued reckless spending and further
00:00:46.820
devaluation of the dollar. As our national debt continues to skyrocket, how are you protecting
00:00:51.480
your savings? Times like these are a great reminder to diversify a portion of your savings into gold.
00:00:56.160
And you can do that with the help of Birch Gold. They're who I buy my gold from. So do thousands
00:01:00.960
of other concerned savers as well. Birch Gold will help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into an
00:01:05.760
IRA in gold. You don't pay a penny out of pocket. It's that simple. When currencies fail, gold is a
00:01:10.260
safe haven. How much more time does the dollar even have? Protect your savings with gold. Birch Gold
00:01:14.760
has an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau and thousands of happy customers. You can find out
00:01:18.920

00:01:27.000
A few years ago, I officially became a middle-aged dad by tearing my Achilles during a casual game of
00:01:33.300
pickup basketball in the driveway. A short time later, I was at the hospital where, after a long
00:01:38.000
and rather physically agonizing wait in the waiting room, the doctor gave me Tylenol and told me that I
00:01:42.620
had to get an MRI and see a specialist. A week later, I had finally been officially diagnosed
00:01:48.200
with a torn Achilles, at which point I was informed of all the options and the risks that accompany each
00:01:53.160
option. Of course, the only reasonable option was to get a surgery to repair the Achilles, but still
00:01:57.480
I had to be informed that, for example, doing nothing and letting it heal on its own was a path that could
00:02:02.080
be chosen, though it certainly was not recommended. I decided to go with the surgery. It's all a pretty
00:02:08.500
standard experience, nothing harrowing or really interesting about that, and that's really the
00:02:12.920
point, because here's what didn't happen. I didn't make a 22-minute video call and get approved for
00:02:19.200
the surgery based on my claims alone. They didn't give me an Achilles surgery merely because I said
00:02:24.740
I wanted one. They didn't simply take my word for it. And if the doctor had looked at me and looked at
00:02:30.640
the MRI and determined that my Achilles was not torn, he wouldn't have given me the surgery anyway just to
00:02:35.960
affirm my feelings that it was torn. That's not how medicine works. Unless, of course, you work in the
00:02:42.060
gender transition industry. It's been 24 hours since we published the results of our undercover
00:02:47.040
investigation into the single largest quote-unquote trans healthcare provider in the United States.
00:02:52.200
The provider we're talking about is called Plume, and it operates in 41 states. It's backed by some of
00:02:56.420
the biggest insurance companies and VCs in the country, and it's totally fraudulent. In case you missed
00:03:01.860
it the other day, after a 22-minute video call, just 22 minutes, Plume approved one of my producers
00:03:07.400
for an orchiectomy, which means testicle removal. No one at Plume had seen my producer, his name is
00:03:13.340
Greg, before that call. They didn't verify any of his information, which was obviously made up.
00:03:20.320
They didn't double-check the phony legal name he provided. They didn't bat an eye when Greg identified
00:03:25.860
as Chelsea Bussey and claimed to be a strong independent woman in need of immediate castration.
00:03:32.100
No one at Plume thought that there was anything odd about all of this, even though Greg made precisely
00:03:36.460
zero effort to pass as a woman. Clearly had no idea what an orchiectomy would entail or what it even
00:03:42.220
means. Plume just rubber-stamped Greg for testicle removal. All he had to do was send 150 bucks for the
00:03:50.000
letter. And in return, Plume sent Greg a letter saying that he has gender dysphoria so that insurance would
00:03:55.500
pay for his testicle removal, even though he repeatedly told them that he didn't have gender
00:03:59.740
dysphoria. Now let's pause for a moment to consider one of the ironies of this whole saga, which
00:04:05.060
Manhattan Institute fellow Lior Sapir pointed out the other day, it's really important, that the same
00:04:10.820
insurance companies that will invent a fake dysphoria diagnosis for a quote-unquote trans patient
00:04:16.040
will often refuse to cover healthcare for detransitioners on the basis that they don't have dysphoria.
00:04:21.680
In other words, if you say you're trans, then healthcare providers will happily cook the books
00:04:27.600
and say you have dysphoria, even if you don't. But if you say you're detransitioning and you're
00:04:32.900
not a member of the preferred class of transgenders, then insurers deny your coverage because your
00:04:38.640
identity now aligns with your biological sex. You see how that works? This politically motivated
00:04:44.180
barbarism, which is totally incoherent, is supposedly the bleeding edge of trans healthcare.
00:04:49.060
You can see footage of Greg's call with Plume on Twitter, and we published a lot of it,
00:04:53.780
although fair warning, as Elon Musk said in response to all this, it is disturbing to say
00:04:57.680
the least. And it will completely destroy your faith in modern medicine, assuming you had any
00:05:03.000
faith left, which you probably shouldn't by now. But here's some of Greg's call.
00:05:07.320
Taking six milligrams a day. Twice a day. Yeah, right, right, you got it. So you're taking
00:05:15.100
1.5 tablets yesterday? Yeah. Okay. And then, I guess the system, significant history. All right.
00:05:26.100
Um, okay, so let's, let's kind of get into this a little bit. So you are seeking
00:05:32.340
what surgery? So for a couple reasons, it's, I might be pronouncing it wrong, but I've been
00:05:40.360
told orchidectomy, right? Of course, you probably don't know. Things that are irreversible when it
00:05:44.800
comes to, um, estrogen-based therapy is breast development and testicular drainage, right?
00:05:51.060
But there's always a possibility for hair growth to come back. That may, that may change in orchidectomy.
00:05:57.160
Once you stop, um, once you don't no longer have your testes, um, you no longer have the
00:06:03.020
ability for your teeth to convert to BHT because you don't have as much teeth, right? So hair,
00:06:07.900
hair growth, facial and body hair may change after orchidectomy. Fat redistribution is affected
00:06:15.620
by the estrogen. So you may have less of a change in fat redistribution if you ever stop
00:06:20.900
me, but you may, it may change as a whole. So it's, it's, it's kind of, it's kind of, um,
00:06:28.740
it kind of does have a benefit without the squirrelyctone, but you still want to take,
00:06:34.200
you still probably would definitely want to take estrogen as long as you would like.
00:06:38.200
I'm not, I'm not complaining about the daily pills, just to be clear. I'm complaining. I'm just
00:06:41.560
saying if it accelerates it, then it makes things faster than that's better.
00:06:44.820
Yeah. Just, uh, casually talking about cutting balls off is all. And you know, the one thing
00:06:50.800
that, well, there are a lot of things that jump out at you when you watch that, uh, the clip and
00:06:54.580
you see that we have more footage that you can go to the Twitter thread and, uh, see, but it's,
00:06:59.920
it's this, the casual nature and Greg's making no effort to, you know, there's not a lot of, uh,
00:07:06.620
acting involved in this on, on his end. Uh, it's just, he's like, yeah, you know, I've been told,
00:07:13.380
I've been told, I've been told, uh, that, uh, you know, I should get an orchidectomy. He pronounces
00:07:17.900
it the wrong. He can't even pronounce the surgery that he's getting. Now, maybe if you're playing
00:07:23.540
devil's advocate, as you watch that, you might be tempted to think, well, Greg fooled them.
00:07:28.720
He's a, he's a master deceiver. Plume did nothing wrong. You might say they had every reason to believe
00:07:33.940
that Greg was really Chelsea bussy and he was really dysphoric and there were no red flags in
00:07:38.560
the call whatsoever. In case you're contemplating that position for whatever reason, I want to,
00:07:42.720
I want to zoom in CSI style on a particular screen grab from Greg's conversation with Plume.
00:07:49.860
Um, here it is. Now, this is the moment that Plume's nurse told Greg about the consequences of
00:07:57.140
removing his testicles. Okay. So this is a man finding out what it means to have your,
00:08:03.200
uh, your testicles cut off. Now I want you to notice, uh, again, he's making no effort at all.
00:08:11.480
He's making no effort at all to, to, you know, pretend that he knows what, what's going on when
00:08:16.400
he goes into this, making no effort at all. Notice his reaction to the news that he's about to lose his
00:08:21.060
gonads. He doesn't seem happy about it. You think that maybe the Plume nurse would have, would have
00:08:25.600
noticed that reaction. You think that'd be part of what she's doing is paying attention to him and his
00:08:30.500
cues and evaluating. But of course, she wasn't paying any attention whatsoever to what Craig,
00:08:35.080
Greg was doing during that call. They also didn't care about what Greg directly told them.
00:08:41.720
As he said, again, that he didn't have dysphoria and yet they wrote a letter saying that he had it
00:08:46.300
anyway. And that's striking because it goes without saying that any reasonable and ethical healthcare
00:08:51.180
provider would have taken one look at Greg and listened to him and said, this is ridiculous.
00:08:56.060
Or at the very least, a reasonable and ethical provider would have pushed back a little bit
00:09:00.540
against the idea that Greg needed his testicles removed. But Plume never did that. They just took
00:09:06.140
Greg's money and sent him a letter authorizing his castration. He said he wanted it, so he got it.
00:09:11.860
And as we reported on Twitter, this fraud extends far beyond Plume. Several other trans healthcare
00:09:16.000
services that operate in nearly every state in the country, like FOLX, F-O-L-X, for example,
00:09:20.820
are doing the same thing. So what now? That's always the key question after an investigation
00:09:25.660
like this. What are people saying about it? Is there going to be any change? Or are we all just
00:09:30.200
going to move on to the next thing and forget about it? Well, over at Media Matters, predictably,
00:09:34.100
they're hoping you ignore our investigation entirely. One of their flacks wrote this,
00:09:38.200
quote, if you're an adult and you want to remove your testicles, it is not the job of a medical
00:09:42.420
professional to stop you. And it certainly is not Matt Walsh's job either. This is not difficult.
00:09:47.360
The principle that the Media Matters flack is outlining is indeed pretty simple, also stupid.
00:09:55.580
It's that adults can do whatever they want. If an adult wants to carve up his testicles,
00:09:59.720
then that's his right. Well, the problem with that analysis from Media Matters is that, of course,
00:10:05.040
first of all, it's depraved and insane. Any moral person would not stand by while someone else butchers
00:10:12.920
themselves. I mean, if you saw someone about to stab himself in the stomach or cut off his own hand
00:10:18.420
or his testicles, you, I would hope, wouldn't sit there and say, well, adults have the right to do
00:10:24.380
whatever they want. Instead, you would intervene, realizing that this person is in deep psychological
00:10:29.920
distress and must be stopped for their own good. Rights have nothing to do with it. Just like if
00:10:36.440
someone's about to jump off a bridge and kill themselves, hopefully you would try to intervene
00:10:40.620
rather than say, well, it is right. It is right. But this is irrelevant anyway because patients
00:10:47.120
don't remove their own testicles. Doctors remove patients' testicles. And in the process,
00:10:53.340
these doctors claim to have a medical basis for the procedure, which we have now proven is a total lie.
00:10:59.860
These doctors cite standards of care that we've proven are fraudulent.
00:11:03.120
It is not a doctor's job to perform whatever surgery a patient happens to ask for.
00:11:09.780
They're supposed to adhere to some standards. They're supposed to use sound medical judgment.
00:11:18.220
That doesn't concern the hacks of media matters, but it does concern actual doctors. For example,
00:11:22.580
Mary Talley Bowden, who completed her residency at Stanford, now runs her own private practice
00:11:27.340
called BreatheMD, told us this, quote, every treatment recommendation from a physician requires
00:11:32.300
a discussion of risks versus benefits. And typically, the higher the risk, the more extensive
00:11:35.940
the discussion. Orchiectomy requires general anesthesia. Like any surgery, it could result in
00:11:40.160
hemorrhage, infection, or death, not to mention devastating psychological injury, should the patient
00:11:44.360
have a change of heart. It's not appropriate to declare someone fit for surgery, especially one this
00:11:49.080
major, over a 22-minute Zoom call with a nurse. None of those complications came up during
00:11:55.840
Greg's conversation with Plume. They didn't warn him of any complications, in fact. And that's crazy
00:12:02.040
because, as Bowden told us, telehealth is, quote, appropriate for minor health problems and low-risk
00:12:07.560
treatment. By contrast, orchiectomy is not a low-risk treatment. It often takes days to approve.
00:12:16.620
Greg J. March Markham, a surgeon and OBGYN, was also horrified by what Plume did. Here's what he told
00:12:24.020
us, quote, informed consent is a critical and essential part of surgery. In the absence of any
00:12:28.100
emergency, it is extremely important that the surgeon or the representatives assure that the
00:12:31.880
patient is completely aware of the nature of the procedure being performed, the likely sequela, and
00:12:37.060
the risks, benefits, and alternatives. A life-altering decision, such as permanent castration, has serious
00:12:41.820
irreversible consequences. The fact that a medical institution was willing to undertake this surgery
00:12:45.800
only 22 minutes after the patient requested this procedure is an unforgivable departure from the
00:12:51.080
standard of care in any city in the United States. Markham continued, quote, at a very minimum, a
00:12:56.940
person undergoing castration should have been alerted of the long and short-term changes following
00:13:00.700
castration, including hormonal changes, changes to cardiovascular risk, and changes to fertility and
00:13:05.740
sexual function. Instead, this patient found a user-friendly interface that they could click through
00:13:10.100
to get the surgery covered, even though they had just decided they no longer wanted their testicles.
00:13:15.320
There was none of the extensive psychological or psychiatric counseling that should have
00:13:19.080
accompanied any permanent surgical procedure for, quote, gender affirmation. I don't see medicine
00:13:24.120
here. This is clearly the tool of a political agenda aimed at mainstreaming so-called gender-affirming
00:13:28.560
surgery in order to achieve a political goal. I'm frankly terrified for any patients who have been
00:13:33.700
previously through this process and are certainly at high risk for regret after their surgeries.
00:13:39.720
That's the consensus from every serious medical expert that we've spoken to. After our investigation
00:13:44.060
was published yesterday, we scoured news reports and social media for any contrary opinions
00:13:48.920
from credible people. Couldn't find any. Except media matters, which we're not counting as credible.
00:13:55.640
So the question is, if these trans telehealth services are so obviously fraudulent, what can we do
00:14:01.420
about them? What's going to happen that will shut this down and save thousands of patients from this
00:14:07.120
butchery? As of today, we haven't heard anything from Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealth, which are the three
00:14:13.000
providers that work with Plume. That's strange when you think about it. Anyone who pays into insurance
00:14:18.020
plans from any of these companies is funding these fraudulent surgeries. You'd think that would prompt
00:14:24.300
some kind of response. After all, the more these insurers have to pay for nonsense operations, the
00:14:29.600
more they have to raise the cost of other operations that are actually necessary from a medical perspective.
00:14:35.480
But these companies, as of now, don't appear to care about any of that.
00:14:38.800
We also haven't heard anything from Kraft Ventures, David Sachs, or the other investors in Plume.
00:14:43.860
And folks, we're going to keep trying, though. We have reached out to the attorneys general of the
00:14:49.840
states where this fraud is happening, including in Tennessee. We can confirm right now that the
00:14:54.200
Tennessee attorney general's office says that they will look into this. We're also waiting to hear
00:14:58.180
from Senator Marsha Blackburn, who we understand will issue a statement soon. And we have received
00:15:02.880
some responses from other key officials. Jack Johnson, the Senate majority leader in Tennessee,
00:15:06.820
where both Plume and folks operate, issued this statement, quote,
00:15:10.560
another disgusting attempt to label the mutilation of children as health care. I appreciate Matt
00:15:14.040
Walsh for exposing this deranged behavior. This is a real battle, and it is a real battle that we
00:15:18.340
will win. Tennessee State Representative William Lamberth endorsed that post on social media.
00:15:23.120
Officials in other states have also responded as well. So far in Utah, the attorney's general's
00:15:27.800
office has issued a statement calling the reports troubling, saying that they are making it a
00:15:32.160
priority to investigate this kind of fraud. At the federal level, Representative Lisa McLean of Michigan
00:15:37.480
is the chair of health care and financial services committee in Congress. She provided
00:15:42.340
this statement, quote, only in a country that lost its soul can major sex change surgeries be expedited
00:15:48.240
like buying a fast pass at a theme park. This is utterly disgusting, and we cannot continue down
00:15:53.380
this path of insanity. It's time America wakes up to reality and casts away progressive ideology that
00:15:58.680
is literally putting people's lives at risk. Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin issued this
00:16:03.680
statement, which was somewhat ambiguous, quote, telehealth providers operating in Arkansas
00:16:07.260
must, of course, follow our laws, and I stand ready to ensure that the law is followed.
00:16:11.540
Now, it's not clear exactly what Tim Griffin is waiting to see or what he's going to do to make
00:16:15.480
sure that trans telehealth providers will abide by the law. We have a lot of evidence that these
00:16:19.720
telehealth providers are operating in Arkansas and ripping off insurance companies in the process.
00:16:23.500
Hopefully, Tim Griffin will look into that. After all, it's his job.
00:16:27.080
Overall, it's been only 24 hours since our investigation was published, and we're already getting these
00:16:31.800
responses from officials who have the power to do something about it. And we're going to make sure
00:16:36.060
they do, in fact, do something about it. Because that's what matters to us. We don't chase down
00:16:41.760
these stories and publish them just for the sake of having viral content. We intend to get results
00:16:47.860
and hold people accountable. If we publish a story and it gets a lot of attention and then everybody
00:16:53.000
moves on and nothing happens, to us, to me personally, that's a failure. We have failed.
00:16:59.040
The results are all that matter, and we're going to get them.
00:17:03.760
What we know for sure is that the corporate media will continue to ignore this story. They don't want you to
00:17:07.640
hear about the scam that is trans telehealth care. The same media outlets that lined up to
00:17:12.580
condemn ivermectin are telling you that there's nothing to see here. But the truth is, this isn't up to
00:17:18.820
them. Insurance companies are getting ripped off, which means that everyone paying into these insurance
00:17:23.160
companies is getting ripped off. Investors have been lied to, which means that they can pull their
00:17:28.400
funding at any moment. And several states now have more than enough justification to issue subpoenas
00:17:34.100
to these telehealth providers to see just how fraudulent their operations really are and how far
00:17:39.300
this goes. If that happens, a lot of people could be spared gruesome surgeries that are totally
00:17:44.920
unnecessary from any conceivable medical perspective. That's what's at stake. That's the whole reason
00:17:52.740
we're covering any of this. All it takes now is for our political leaders to act on what we've
00:17:58.200
uncovered, and we'll make sure that they do. Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:19:08.760
The political world is bracing for the possibility of a federal indictment of former President Trump,
00:19:12.760
the leading candidate for the Republican presidential election next year. A flurry of recent activity and
00:19:16.980
posturing related to a special counsel probe into his handling of classified documents.
00:19:20.400
is fueling talk that an indictment could be imminent. Trump's attorneys met Sunday with
00:19:26.460
Justice Department officials, including special counsel Jack Smith, who's probing whether Trump
00:19:30.560
improperly handled classified documents after leaving office. The Florida grand jury is reportedly
00:19:35.920
convening this week in the case after a lengthy hiatus. Democrats and Republicans went back and
00:19:41.100
forth on Tuesday over a letter Representative Jim Jordan, a vocal Trump ally and chairman of the House
00:19:45.760
Judiciary Committee sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland to obtain more information about special
00:19:50.500
counsel Jack Smith's investigations into Trump. And a barrage of angry social media posts from Trump on
00:19:55.460
Tuesday morning further fed into talk that the former president may be concerned about an impending
00:19:59.920
announcement in the case. I suspect it's near, according to Attorney General Bill Barr,
00:20:06.100
former Attorney General Bill Barr, who said this on Tuesday on CBS mornings.
00:20:09.600
I've said for a while that I think that this is the most dangerous legal risk facing the former
00:20:13.580
president. If I had to bet, I would bet that it's near and near being the indictment.
00:20:18.780
Well, all I can say about this is that if they go forward with a federal indictment, federally
00:20:26.340
indicting a leading presidential candidate and a former president as we head into an election year,
00:20:31.980
and they do it for an alleged quote-unquote crime that Biden himself, the current president,
00:20:40.660
has also committed. If it is a crime, then he committed it too. We know that. Hillary Clinton,
00:20:48.940
who, by the way, in her position as Secretary of State, did not have the power to declassify
00:20:55.740
documents the way that Trump did. So if it's this alleged crime that Biden himself has committed,
00:21:05.100
Hillary Clinton committed, and is apparently very common, and yet they indict him anyway,
00:21:11.760
then I'm not sure where we go from there. Because that really is truly a collapse of the republic kind
00:21:17.720
of situation. It just is. For all the talk of the attacks in our democracy, this would be an attack
00:21:23.940
unlike anything we've seen yet. Is it an actual attack on our democracy? And it's an attack on
00:21:32.540
our democracy because it's an attempt to circumvent and subvert the will of the people heading into
00:21:37.920
an election. Because that's, of course, the only reason they're doing this. They try to take Trump
00:21:43.940
out of the equation so that the voters don't get a chance to choose him. They're worried the voters
00:21:49.000
will choose him again. And so they're trying to take him out of the equation. For all the talk we
00:21:56.680
hear about attacks on our democracy, that's what it looks like. When you try to stop people,
00:22:02.980
prevent people from voting for someone by indicting them and throwing them in prison for political
00:22:08.660
reasons only, which is all this is. We hear about how, well, if you have voter ID,
00:22:15.720
you're preventing people from voting. You're preventing them from doing anything.
00:22:21.840
Just get an ID and go vote. But you already have an ID. If you're a functional adult in the United
00:22:27.340
States of America in the year 2023, you must already have one. And if you don't, it's very easy to get
00:22:32.920
one. So that doesn't prevent anyone from voting and go vote for the person that you want. Now,
00:22:40.260
if you take someone who's running for president and you take them out and you throw them in prison
00:22:47.120
and the only reason you're doing it is to stop people voting for it, well, now you have prevented
00:22:51.180
people from voting for the person that they want. That's an attack on our democracy. But what would
00:22:56.920
make it all the more disastrous is just how obvious it is. Now, we know, and they're always,
00:23:05.140
if you're especially cynical, as I tend to be, I admit, and you hear about stories like this,
00:23:11.360
you can always say, well, yeah, of course, the whole government's corrupt. It's always been this
00:23:15.940
way. They always do things like this. They've always been corrupt people in government. And yeah,
00:23:19.960
of course, that's the case. But once it's this out in the open, and it's like they're standing in
00:23:28.020
front of us and saying, yes, here's something that Biden did and Hillary Clinton did, and we didn't care
00:23:33.660
about that, but we're going after Trump for it. And they're out in the open telling us that.
00:23:39.920
Then that puts the corruption out in the open. And at that point, it's like that that's when
00:23:44.480
any faith that people have in the system, if they have any faith left, any faith just goes out the
00:23:50.880
window. And when the people lose all semblance of faith and trust in the system, that's when
00:24:00.120
everything comes crashing down. None of this works unless all the people basically buy in.
00:24:09.640
If they don't anymore, then you have chaos. And that's where we're headed.
00:24:13.940
Speaking of losing faith in the system, this is from Daily Wire. The Southern Poverty Law Center
00:24:18.520
put several parents' rights groups on its hate map alongside the likes of the Ku Klux Klan.
00:24:23.860
We know that the Southern Poverty Law Center, they are a far-left activist group, about as far-left as
00:24:35.380
you can possibly get, which is saying something. And they have taken it upon themselves to be the
00:24:41.060
arbiters of what qualifies as hate, what qualifies as a hate group. And so even though, like we talked
00:24:47.800
about the human rights campaign yesterday, another far-left group declared a state of emergency,
00:24:53.040
and we kind of laugh about that because they're not a governmental entity, so who cares about them
00:24:56.160
declaring a state of emergency? It seems a little bit like in the office when Michael Scott walks out
00:25:00.540
of his office and shouts, I declare bankruptcy. It's like it doesn't work that way. You can't just
00:25:04.780
literally shout it. And you'd think it's the same thing. The human rights campaign can't walk outside
00:25:09.240
of its offices and shout, state of emergency, and anything happens. But they operate, human rights
00:25:14.700
campaign does, as sort of a quasi-governmental agency. So they kind of have the power of governmental
00:25:20.520
agencies. And it's the same thing with the Southern Poverty Law Center. So it shouldn't
00:25:24.840
matter. When they declare that you are a hate group or a hateful person or a terrorist,
00:25:30.000
it shouldn't make any difference whatsoever. Yeah, they think that, who cares? But it does matter.
00:25:36.320
It does matter. Because the system grants them validity. And so there's real power behind that.
00:25:44.460
There could be actual consequences behind being labeled this way by the Southern Poverty Law
00:25:50.460
Center, even though they're not a governmental agency. But they operate as one, and they've
00:25:54.320
been empowered to operate as one, basically. So who are the new hate groups, according to the
00:26:00.520
Southern Poverty Law Center? Daily Wire says the SPLC, an uber-leftist civil rights watchdog group,
00:26:05.840
frequently brands conservatives and Christian organizations hate groups. And this year,
00:26:09.040
that includes parental rights groups like Moms for Liberty and Parents Defending Education.
00:26:16.400
The SPLC said in its The Year in Hate and Extremism Report for 2022, released on Tuesday,
00:26:22.020
says, quote, schools especially have been on the receiving end of ramped up and coordinated
00:26:25.860
hard right attacks frequently through the guise of parents' rights groups.
00:26:31.380
Moms for Liberty is at the forefront of this mobilization, the SPLC said.
00:26:35.640
The list of hate groups includes 230 chapters of Moms for Liberty, 12 chapters of Parental Rights
00:26:42.780
and Education, a group called No Left Turn in Education, and several chapters of another group
00:26:47.380
called Parents Involved in Education. The SPLC said extremist groups include anti-government groups
00:26:53.800
as well as hate groups. The report lists 523 hate groups and 702 anti-government extremist groups,
00:27:01.620
a total of 1,225 active groups. Moms for Liberty is listed on the hate map as an anti-government
00:27:10.340
movement. You know, God forbid, God forbid there's an anti-government movement. This is, I mean,
00:27:17.060
it's so absurd, obviously, especially if you've ever, if you know anything about Moms for Liberty and
00:27:21.560
you've been around, maybe you're in the organization, you've been to any of their events.
00:27:25.080
Um, and, and I have, I've spoken at Moms for Liberty events. I know a lot of people that are,
00:27:30.180
that are involved and, uh, you know who they are? Well, they're just, they're moms. Like I said,
00:27:36.040
it's, they're just, they're moms who are concerned about their kids' education and they don't want,
00:27:42.080
for example, pornography to be distributed to their kids at school. And that's what they're concerned
00:27:48.220
about. They're concerned about their kids. And so they organize events and, you know,
00:27:53.720
they raise awareness about these issues. They engage in activism that is of course, always peaceful.
00:28:01.240
Okay. It's, it's not a bunch of moms with like literal pitchforks and torches and all of that
00:28:10.560
As therapeutic as that might be to witness, uh, that's not actually what they're doing.
00:28:14.840
Not anything close to that. It's extremely peaceful groups of normal, just like everyday
00:28:21.160
moms. This is your, this is your prototypical, like grassroots organization. And this is what
00:28:29.180
they're doing. And they've had a lot of success recently. They've been very effective. That's what,
00:28:34.080
that's what lands them on the hate group thing, which is why really, if you're a conservative group
00:28:39.100
and you're not on the Southern Poverty Law Center hate map, it means you have a lot of work to do.
00:28:44.840
It's like, it's, it's, it's now a point of shame if you're not on it because the way that you land
00:28:50.400
on it is to be effective. Once you start, once you start having a real impact and you're making a
00:28:57.860
difference, that's when they blend, they, they brand you as a hate group. And of course, understood a
00:29:05.300
certain way, uh, there might be some accuracy to it. Is Moms for Liberty a hate group? Well, they do,
00:29:12.540
they do hate certain things like they, they hate the indoctrination and sexualization of their
00:29:19.960
children. They hate that. They hate the pornography that's being distributed in schools.
00:29:27.600
You know, they hate assaults on their family and on their freedom. They, they hate all those things,
00:29:33.180
all those things that should be hated and actually hated, not just like disliked, but hated.
00:29:44.700
Uh, all right. And that's always, when the left calls you a hate group, they mean, again, well,
00:29:48.880
they mean that you're, that you're effective. That's the first thing. And, uh, and they mean that
00:29:52.800
they hate you, but also they, they mean that you hate evil, terrible things. That's how you get
00:30:01.440
branded a hate group. Um, here's some more hateful people hating the right things. Daily Wire reports
00:30:08.880
tensions boiled over Tuesday night outside of California school board meeting where officials
00:30:13.760
were discussing efforts to celebrate pride month with parents and activists squaring off against
00:30:17.800
masked Antifa members. The clash came outside the Glendale unified school district's headquarters
00:30:23.180
where parents, many from the Los Angeles County cities, Armenian and Hispanic communities were
00:30:28.340
blasting board members for promoting a pro LGBTQ agenda to young children. Other speakers, including
00:30:33.540
a man in a skirt and high heels showed up in support of the district's pro pride agenda. According to
00:30:37.620
reports, one father warned all these fake people pointing to several mass crowd members are going to go
00:30:43.820
away and we're going to vote every one of you out. The issue has roiled the district in recent days
00:30:49.060
with many parents, including those from ethnic communities, pulling their children out of school
00:30:52.580
in protest. Some elementary schools only had a 40% attendance rate on June 2nd, which that is music
00:30:58.520
to my ears. I love to hear that. These schools are being taken down because parents are taking back
00:31:04.000
control of their kids' education, pulling their kids out, you know, depriving the education system of
00:31:09.780
the fuel that it needs to run. And that fuel is your children. And it's very much like the fuel you
00:31:17.240
toss into a fire. You send your kids to public school, it's like you're, it's a log in the fire is
00:31:23.160
what you're doing. We have some, we have some footage of that. So parents showed up, especially lots of
00:31:32.460
fathers, a lot of dads showed up to protest the sexualization and indoctrination of kids in their
00:31:36.520
school system. Antifa shows up and Antifa is accustomed to, they show up and they've got their
00:31:42.000
masks on and they're carrying their baseball bats and doing everything else. And they're dressed in
00:31:45.500
all black and they're doing their whole, their whole pageant, their whole routine. And what happens
00:31:50.540
normally is that they do whatever they want. They get their way, people back away because they're
00:31:55.300
afraid. That's not what happened here because a bunch of dads showed up on the other side and were
00:31:59.980
not so willing to back away. And let's watch a little bit of the footage of this encounter.
00:32:06.520
Yeah. You can see, you kind of see it's, it's hard to discern, but you always know the people
00:32:11.040
in masks. Oh boy. Wow. The people in masks are always the Antifa members. Okay. That's how you
00:32:17.580
can spot them. They have a pink hat on, probably Antifa also. And here we can see the Antifa,
00:32:22.060
they're backing away. And at the bottom of the screen there, you look, those are,
00:32:26.640
those are all men for the most part, you know, probably 95% men. And those are dads. Those are dads
00:32:32.560
doing what dads ought to do. All right. That's something that you absolutely love to see.
00:32:39.380
That is, um, and that is exactly what needs to happen where dads show up and say, you're not
00:32:46.380
going to do this anymore. You're, you're not going to do this to, to my child. This is not going to
00:32:51.940
happen. And then when, when Antifa comes and they've got their pink hats on and their masks and
00:32:57.320
everything trying to scare you, I mean, most of these people look, I mean, there are actual
00:33:02.580
violent extremists in Antifa, obviously. And there are a lot of, uh, deranged people,
00:33:07.780
mentally ill people, and you never know exactly what they're going to do. Um, so, you know, that,
00:33:12.940
that is, that is the case. There's a real threat and a real risk there. And, and even if they're all
00:33:17.000
a bunch of weaklings, well, if you put a whole bunch of weaklings together and, uh, and all of them
00:33:22.100
are mentally ill and crazy and deranged perverts, then they can do some real damage.
00:33:25.940
But it is also true that individually, these people are, are absolute cowards. They're pitiful
00:33:34.760
cowards. And that's the way it always goes. If you show up and you stand your ground and you have
00:33:41.420
some real men there who are, who are, uh, who are pissed off or angry and justifiably so,
00:33:49.820
then you're going to see them run and scatter and run for the hills.
00:33:53.100
All right. I want to play this, a little bit of this report for you. Uh, this is a news report
00:33:59.100
out of Las Vegas and all I'm going to do, it doesn't need a lot of setup. This is, this is the
00:34:04.580
report. Okay. This is what they're saying. This is what happened according to this, uh, news report
00:34:08.920
in Las Vegas. This is it. Let's watch it. It is the police call. Everybody will be talking about.
00:34:16.220
Thanks for joining us here at six o'clock. I'm Denise Valdez. I'm Brian Loftus. A family says
00:34:20.400
something crashed into their backyard, prompting them to call 911 saying they saw creatures walking
00:34:26.260
around. Our eight news now investigators digging into this for weeks now. And tonight, our David
00:34:31.420
Charns with the video you will only see on eight news now, David. Brad, Denise, sources telling
00:34:36.180
babies now investigators that several agencies believe something landed or crashed. Whether it was
00:34:43.100
non-humans or not, it certainly scared the people living on this property. Now, before we show you
00:34:49.020
that video, listen to their call for help. There's like an eight foot person beside it and another one
00:34:56.300
is inside and it has big eyes and looking at us and it's still there. Okay, where is this on your
00:35:01.900
property? Uh, in my backyard. I swear to God, this is not a joke. This is actually, we just be terrified
00:35:08.940
of it. So there's two people or two subjects that are in your backyard? Correct. And they're very
00:35:14.860
large. They're like eight foot, nine feet, 10 foot. I don't know. They're like, they look like
00:35:20.940
aliens to us. Big eyes. They have big eyes. Like, like I can't explain it. Go ahead, pause it for a
00:35:27.500
second. I just like how, and I know these 911 operators, they hear a lot of crazy stuff. I like
00:35:32.100
how casual, she's so casual about it. This guy's like, yeah, I'm looking at space aliens. They're 10
00:35:36.460
feet tall. They have big eyes. Space aliens that crash landed in my, in my backyard. And she says,
00:35:42.300
oh, okay. And where are they? Where are these, these 10 foot creatures? Oh, they're standing right
00:35:46.120
there. Okay. Now I will say, and, and I haven't even watched this full report yet. So we're watching
00:35:51.620
it together for the first time. Uh, we're experiencing this together as a magical moment.
00:35:56.480
I'm already asked for the same question you are, which is, uh, did you get a picture? I mean,
00:36:00.680
I would think now, look, I'll be the first to say people are far too quick to pull out their phones
00:36:05.380
these days. And, uh, and even to take pictures, I think, I think, you know, there are times when,
00:36:09.600
uh, you see something and you're experiencing something and, and, uh, and it's always like,
00:36:15.040
well, we got to document it. We got to go, we got to, we got to get it on camera. And then what
00:36:18.580
ends up happening is that you're experiencing this moment through a little screen instead of
00:36:22.600
experiencing it in reality. And I think that's bad. I mean, I think a lot of times we should just be
00:36:26.420
in the moment. However, something like this, when you've got 10 foot aliens in your backyard,
00:36:31.400
you probably want to get the phone out and get that on tape. Maybe they do. Let's keep watching.
00:36:40.040
They're shiny eyes and, and they're not human. They're a hundred percent. They're not human.
00:36:47.400
Okay. Well, the eight news now investigators obtaining video as officers then responded to
00:36:53.380
the call. You just heard, you'll see the officers also saw something in the sky that night, but the
00:36:59.400
big question is, what was it? And is it all connected?
00:37:05.360
It's almost midnight on May 1st, when a Las Vegas Metro police officers body cam catches this
00:37:11.160
something flashing low in the sky. 911 emergency minutes later, there's a, there's like an eight
00:37:16.940
full person beside it and another one's inside and it has big eyes and looking at us and it's still
00:37:22.080
there. Someone calls 911 reporting two large figures in their backyard. I'm so nervous right
00:37:28.480
now. The eight news now investigators obtaining another officer's video as he's sent to the
00:37:33.820
Northwest Valley home. I have butterflies, bro. Everyone thought of shooting star. Then these
00:37:38.700
people say there's aliens in their backyard. By now, it's more than an hour after that bright light
00:37:43.680
officers meeting up with the caller and his family. What'd you see? It was like a, it was like a big
00:37:50.240
creature, a big creature. Yeah. I'm not going to BS you guys. One of my partners said they saw something
00:37:55.580
fall into the sky too. So that's why I'm kind of curious. Did you see anything land in your backyard or
00:38:00.300
they see like a big, that's what they say. They see like a big, uh, like a big something with light.
00:38:04.420
What I saw right now, I do believe in it. Police walk into the backyard to investigate, but Metro blacked out that
00:38:09.920
part of the video because it's considered private property. It's clear. They're taking this call
00:38:15.000
seriously. Hey, this might sound like a, um, I mean, I would just keep watching the entire thing, but you got to
00:38:21.880
stop it somewhere. Uh, so they, they black it out because it's someone's private property, but you were in their
00:38:26.500
front yard and black it out. And it, it, we see video all the time of people being like shot to death on camera and
00:38:34.780
they no problem publishing that. There can be a video of something getting shot to death in like in their own
00:38:40.280
home and some kind of standoff. And we'll see that. But in this case, well, to respect their privacy, we're not
00:38:45.460
going to show you the backyard where aliens landed. And I guess, so I I'm going to assume that if they got the
00:38:51.580
cell phone footage of the aliens, they would have shown that they're not going to save that for the end. I think
00:38:55.860
they're not going to save, they're not going to bury that lead. I don't think they're going to go through five
00:39:00.440
minutes and then say, Oh, by the way, we actually have the footage. Here it is. Here are the aliens. There you go. So I'm
00:39:04.580
assume they never got, so, so they never pulled out the phone to get this on camera. I don't know. I
00:39:12.780
mean, look, it could be that they got it on camera and then the footage was confiscated by, by, you
00:39:20.000
know, men in black who pulled up in SUVs and took the phones. That could have happened. It could be
00:39:27.360
that they just wanted to experience the moment, you know, that, that could also, they were in the moment
00:39:31.380
and they said, we don't, this is not about getting in. We don't need, you know, we don't need to use
00:39:35.960
this for clicks and likes on Twitter. We're just going to experience this moment together as a
00:39:40.200
family and watch the aliens. That could have happened. So the skeptics and the party poopers
00:39:48.420
will say, this is nonsense. They would have got the cell phone out. I'm just saying that's a possible
00:39:54.260
explanation, but there are other explanations that would still allow us to believe that aliens
00:40:00.500
really landed in this guy's backyard. All right. So there we go. Oh, one other thing. So that was a
00:40:09.340
fun story. This one is horrific that unfortunately we have to end the headlines with. Daily Wire has
00:40:15.400
this report. Social media platform Instagram has been accused of helping to facilitate connections
00:40:19.420
between a vast pedophile network, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal and academic
00:40:24.020
researchers. The journal alongside researchers at Stanford University and the University of
00:40:27.380
Massachusetts Amherst reported that Instagram allowed and promoted accounts that openly buy
00:40:31.880
and commission underage sex content. Quote, Instagram connects pedophiles and guides them to content
00:40:39.780
sellers via recommendation systems that excel at linking those who share these interests,
00:40:45.040
the journal and the academic researchers found. The researchers found that Instagram enabled people
00:40:50.520
to search explicit hashtags such as, quote, pedo whore and, uh, or hashtag pedo whore and hashtag
00:40:59.320
preteen, preteen sex. So these are hashtags that you did on Instagram, you can search and Instagram
00:41:07.280
apparently has not disabled those hashtags, which, which it could easily do. And that connects them to
00:41:13.880
accounts that use the terms to advertise child sex material for sale. Accounts who post menus,
00:41:20.540
quote unquote, that offer inappropriate content, including imagery of the minor performing sexual
00:41:25.000
acts with animals. That's in quotes. Um, other menus reportedly offered videos of children hurting
00:41:32.060
themselves or meetups with kids. So, I mean, it's hard to even read this, but, uh, to summarize
00:41:40.220
on Instagram, there is this coordinated, uh, effort and conspiracy among a vast network of pedophiles
00:41:51.520
to prey on kids and to share, uh, this kind of material and Instagram apparently allows it. I mean,
00:41:58.200
there's, there's a lot of really basic things they could do to shut a lot of this down and, uh,
00:42:05.180
apparently they are not doing it. So what do we do about that? Well, I mean, on, on the legal end,
00:42:12.940
for one thing, you start holding these platforms accountable, like accountable. And what I mean by
00:42:19.940
that is burning them to the ground, legally speaking, if they aren't doing anything to prevent,
00:42:27.240
you know, um, child pornography from being distributed on their platform to prevent children
00:42:35.600
from being actively preyed upon on their platforms, this thing where they are totally exempt from any
00:42:43.200
kind of liability whatsoever has to end. That's the first thing that needs to be done.
00:42:49.740
And then the second thing, which is really the first thing on an individual basis is that we as
00:42:54.300
parents have to, uh, make some decisions about whether or not we're going to allow our kids
00:42:59.560
onto these platforms. And to me, as you know, because I'm on this, uh, you know, I'm standing
00:43:04.880
on the soapbox every single day. It's an easy decision. You don't, you don't allow your kids
00:43:09.420
on these platforms. You don't give them the phones with internet access. This is what you're giving them
00:43:13.520
access to, or more, more specifically, this is who you are giving, uh, who you, these, this is who
00:43:21.040
your, who will be able to access your kids. So it's not just about what your kids can access.
00:43:26.400
It's now that it's, it's that your kids are now accessible for all of these perverts and degenerates
00:43:33.400
out there. It really is allowing your kid on a social media platform. It is, it is very similar
00:43:42.040
to dropping your 10 year old off at some seedy bar downtown for the day and leaving them there and,
00:43:49.140
you know, going to run errands or something. When you think about all the people who are there,
00:43:55.620
who are, who your, your child is now is now totally vulnerable and is in this in completely
00:44:00.880
inappropriate to say the least environment for a child, not at all equipped to navigate it,
00:44:07.220
to be able to protect themselves, to understand what the risks are. And that's, that's the downside
00:44:13.080
to putting your kids on these platforms. What the hell is the upside? What is the, we know what
00:44:20.640
the downside is. You let your kid on the social media platforms. The downside is, uh, they become
00:44:26.660
totally obsessed with it. They, they, you know, forfeit their actual childhood in favor of like
00:44:31.840
the screen. They become addicted to the screen. They don't know how to even be a, they don't know how
00:44:36.720
to socialize anymore. They don't know anything. They're, they're constantly, their lives become
00:44:40.780
absorbed by the screen. That's one consequence. The other even greater consequence is, uh, all of
00:44:47.320
the horrific content and material they're now going to be exposed to. And all of the degenerate
00:44:55.420
monsters who can access your kids. Now, those are all the downsides along with many other downsides.
00:45:02.160
What is the upside? And I can't think of, I can't think of any upside. Actually, I cannot think of
00:45:07.200
any upside to allowing your child on something like Instagram. And even if you could think of one,
00:45:14.520
I don't think it's going to be one that outweighs all the downsides I just listed.
00:45:21.440
And yet, even though it's all downside and these are major, I say downside, these are like
00:45:27.060
major, major problems. And there's nothing on the other set on the other end to, to, to counterbalance
00:45:35.260
that. Still, you've got millions of parents who say, yeah, well, you know, go ahead.
00:45:40.460
I mean, it's mind boggling to me. All right, let's get to the comment section.
00:45:43.880
If you're a man, it's required that you grow a B&A. We're the sweet baby gang.
00:45:53.380

00:46:23.280
just hired a new intern named Finn. So far, he's been doing a really great job making coffee
00:46:27.480
every morning. But the taste of my coffee is soured by his horrendous hideous skin. His skin is so dry
00:46:32.780
and flaky. I have to check my coffee just to make sure peeled skin flakes didn't drop into it. It's
00:46:38.300
revolting. It really is that bad. And I'm definitely not making any of this up. It's 100% true. But
00:46:44.400
luckily for Finn, we have loads of GenuSol in the office, which he's been able to use. And we have
00:46:50.300
locked him in a hole somewhere and thrown the lotion at him and told him it puts the lotion on
00:46:57.320
its skin or else it gets the hose again. And anyway, his flakiness has finally vanished. So

00:47:17.080
slash Walsh. I should say, you know, I said that there's, there's no upside to allowing your
00:47:21.880
children on these platforms. And to be fair, because I don't want to make a straw man out of
00:47:27.300
it. I have heard the parents who do allow their kids on the platform. They do mention the one
00:47:33.280
thing that they see as the upside, which is that their kids will fit in. You know, if you don't
00:47:36.900
let them on Instagram, you don't let them on TikTok, they won't fit in. If you don't give them a
00:47:39.960
smartphone with internet access, they won't fit in. They'll be weird. They won't fit in with their
00:47:43.560
friends. Except that's not, that's not, that's another downside. In fact, like, do you actually
00:47:48.180
want your kid? You see this, you go out in the culture, you see the way people are. You want your
00:47:53.720
kid to fit in with that? That, that is your great dream. Your hope for your children is that they just
00:47:59.800
fit in with all the other morons. I don't want my kids to fit in with that. You know, I want them to
00:48:06.900
to be, to elevate above that. I want them to be different. And the other thing is that I know as
00:48:13.580
an adult, because I've been through it. And so I have perspective that my kids don't have. I know
00:48:19.860
that fitting in as a kid doesn't matter because the moment you graduate school and you go on and
00:48:28.860
you start living your life, whether or not you were considered cool as a kid, if you fit in, like
00:48:34.280
makes no, no one cares anymore. It doesn't mean anything. And you get to be an old fogey like
00:48:40.460
me in your mid thirties. And you look back at, uh, you know, it's the classic thing. You look back at
00:48:44.200
people you knew in high school and middle school and the one that were the ones that were really
00:48:48.280
cool back then. And you look at what they're doing now. Some of them are succeeding. Many of them are
00:48:51.660
not. Many of them turned out to be total losers, not doing anything interesting with their lives.
00:48:56.460
Are they taking solace in the fact that, you know, when I was in 10th grade, I really fit in.
00:48:59.960
People liked me a lot. Who cares? Doesn't mean anything. Like all,
00:49:04.260
all that stuff, the social pressures, everything. Once your child is out of that,
00:49:09.160
it means nothing. It's just vapor. It's nothing. And, and we are supposed to know that as adults,
00:49:16.140
our kids can't see it. They don't have the perspective that we have. And so we're supposed
00:49:19.700
to be telling them and, and, and, and, and reassuring them of that. Um, but instead you have
00:49:26.980
adults that, uh, that, that apparently don't have that perspective. So their kids say,
00:49:32.080
that's the end of the world. If I don't fit in and have a smartphone, then you have parents that
00:49:35.340
what agree with that and say, Oh, you're right. Yeah. I mean, if, if you're seen as a loser now
00:49:39.440
and weird, cause you don't have a smartphone, it is the end of the world. We better give you a
00:49:41.680
smartphone. Like that's the mentality that you have as a parent. What the hell is wrong with you?
00:49:47.220
Uh, well, I know what's wrong with you. A lot, a lot of things are wrong with you.
00:49:52.020
All right. Uh, comment says knowing Matt's sarcasm level, I can't tell if he's seriously
00:49:55.900
interested in aliens. Another comment responds rough for real. I'm trying to dissect every
00:50:00.760
single word and gesture and it's a struggle. Uh, uh, you can't tell if I'm seriously interested.
00:50:06.980
Well, I would think that it's pretty obvious by now. Now I know, yeah, I know I can be a sarcastic
00:50:12.880
SOB and I can keep a, you know, and I can, I can keep a bit running for a long time,
00:50:17.560
but it should be clear by now with how often I talk about it, that I am actually interested in it.
00:50:23.660
And why wouldn't I be? I mean, the fact that you would even consider the possibility that I'm
00:50:29.080
sarcastic about it is, is disappointing. Like, do I need to be, so I'm interested in the, in the fact
00:50:38.620
that aliens are landing on earth. I'm interested in that fact. And you think I must, it must be
00:50:45.460
sarcasm. No, maybe I'm interested because it's a really interesting fact. Uh, Strana says the whole
00:50:55.860
adults can do what they want. Stick is so annoying and ignorant. It's nice to finally hear someone
00:50:59.880
going against the care, that careless mindset for the people that say adults can have their
00:51:03.160
generals mutilated by their choice because it makes them happier about themselves. That's like saying
00:51:07.040
people can commit self-harm slash forever sleep, I guess suicide is what I mean, because it'll
00:51:13.060
relieve their stress or going back to the subject of dysmorphia. It's like saying anorexic people can
00:51:17.260
starve themselves to feel better about their bodies. Yeah, that's exactly what it's like saying.
00:51:21.200
And I think that the, um, and I've, I just used the self-harm example, suicide example. Anorexia is
00:51:26.460
probably the best example of all, because that's another form of a body dysmorphia where someone sees
00:51:31.940
their body in a way that, that, that isn't true. You know, someone's rail thin and, uh, emaciated and
00:51:38.600
thinks that they're obese and overweight. They have a perception of their body that is incorrect.
00:51:44.080
And in that case, at least now, and maybe this will change as our culture becomes more and more
00:51:50.500
quote unquote accepting. But right now, when somebody with anorexia says, I'm so fat and overweight,
00:51:56.880
overweight, the last thing anyone would ever do is agree with them or affirm their perception of
00:52:05.260
themselves. And we can all see that with eating disorders. And yet somehow it's hard to see it
00:52:12.460
for some people when it comes to gender. Uh, Joshua says one of Joe Rogan's guests once posited that
00:52:17.740
the aliens were the, were the humans of the future coming back to check on us. If this were true,
00:52:22.440
would this be more or less fascinating than little green men? I think it's a little bit less
00:52:26.260
interesting. It's also impossible and it doesn't make any sense. Why would they?
00:52:30.200
So they're from the future and they came to check on it. Like, don't they already know what happened?
00:52:33.560
They're in the future. This is in the past. Why would they need to come and see it? They would
00:52:37.340
already know all of this anyway. And especially why would they need to come back to the year,
00:52:42.440
like to the 21st century when everything is on film? So, you know, there's like maybe if you want
00:52:50.060
to go back to the year 1300 to see what was really going on back then when things were not nearly as
00:52:54.880
consistently documented, why would they need to go to now? It's like, if you are currently in the
00:53:01.320
year 2500 and you want to know what it was like in the 21st century, then I'm sure there's some
00:53:06.040
kind of archive somewhere of all the TikTok videos and just go look at that. That's what it was. It
00:53:09.720
was just that. Do they want to come back here because they're thinking it could have been that
00:53:13.560
bad? Is that really what people were like back then? And they're coming to check it out? Maybe.
00:53:18.580
Of course, there's also the problem that traveling into the past seems to me to be totally
00:53:21.980
impossible. Like how would that even be possible? The past is over. It's done. That's all gone now.
00:53:27.040
You can't, it doesn't like exist somewhere stored on some sort of hard drive. It's just, it's gone.
00:53:33.260
All that is gone. A bunch of other aliens. If they did come from outside of this world,
00:53:39.740
then they have absolutely mastered space travel. My question is maybe this is not outer space we're
00:53:43.460
contemplating, but more interdimensional space, which is a whole other rabbit altogether. Yeah,
00:53:48.020
I've heard this interdimensional time travel, you know, all kinds of theories. No,
00:53:53.360
they're aliens. All right. Let's all get on the same page here with what we're looking at.
00:53:59.080
If you, along with tens of millions of people watch the Netflix hit show, Making a Murderer,
00:54:03.660
then you're going to love Daily Wire plus his new exclusive 10 part docuseries with Candace Owens called
00:54:08.220
Convicting a Murderer, which is coming this summer. When leftists are confronted with the truth,
00:54:12.920
their only response is to scream in your face or run away. I've personally encountered that myself.
00:54:17.240
And so has Candace Owens many times. She's unafraid to call out the mob and expose the truth.
00:54:21.620
When Candace found out that key facts may have been omitted in Netflix's series,
00:54:25.600
she set out to uncover the truth behind the notorious Stephen Avery case.
00:54:29.300

00:55:01.740
Our Daily Cancellation today begins with this post from the Twitter account End Wokeness. And here we
00:55:06.640
have two pictures of the actress Megan Fox walking around with her three children, all boys.
00:55:11.120
The account adds this capture, quote, Megan Fox has three sons that all dress like girls. I'm sure
00:55:15.780
it's just a coincidence. Indeed, by sheer coincidence, it just so happens that many
00:55:19.660
Hollywood stars have children who end up being trans or quote unquote gender fluid or quote unquote
00:55:24.300
non-binary or some other made up identity. These identities are innate. They're deeply rooted in a
00:55:29.920
person's selfhood. All of these children are born like this. And yet somehow by pure luck,
00:55:36.440
everyone in Hollywood has a trans kid all of a sudden. What could possibly explain this perplexing
00:55:41.280
scientific phenomenon? Now, not to get into some semantics, but some have responded that in those
00:55:47.060
pictures that you can look at, only the oldest boy appears to be wearing girl clothes. The others
00:55:51.320
have long hair, but are arguably wearing normal clothing for a boy. That may or may not be the case
00:55:57.320
in those pictures, but other photos like these, for example, clearly show that Fox enjoys cross-dressing
00:56:03.640
all of her boys and parading them around in public like that. Should go without saying,
00:56:09.120
though apparently it needs to be said, that this is sick and twisted behavior on the part of Megan
00:56:12.940
Fox and of all the other woke Munchausen mommies who actively try to create identity crises in their
00:56:18.300
children, especially their sons. Now, I'm not going to say that a boy is doomed if his mom is single
00:56:24.660
and liberal. There is always hope after all, but he is at an enormous disadvantage. Given that he's being
00:56:30.920
raised by someone who hates his boyhood, hates masculinity, who wants to turn him into a girl
00:56:36.140
and then show him around town like a trophy. We'll talk about that in a moment. First, we must
00:56:41.840
acknowledge the defenses that have been trotted out for Megan Fox. The Daily Dot writes, quote,
00:56:46.380
Megan Fox was photographed earlier this year walking around Los Angeles with the three sons she shares
00:56:50.060
with Brian Austin Green, and Twitter transphobes had a field day when the photos were re-shared online.
00:56:55.820
While leaving a grocery store, Noah, Bodie, and Journey, the boy's name, were seen in various
00:57:01.540
states of dress, all had long hair, and while Noah opted for a pink, more feminine outfit,
00:57:06.460
his younger brothers donned band tees, camo, and gray clothing. A popular and controversial
00:57:11.300
conservative Twitter account called End Wokeness commented on the pictures, which you just read
00:57:16.060
the comment. The tweet swiftly brought bigots out of the woodwork. In the replies, Twitter users
00:57:20.760
voiced their opinions, saying things like, my sons will be men, or replying with cringey memes.
00:57:25.820
As Megan's parenting skills were called into question, Twitter user Queen of the Crew stood
00:57:30.620
up for her, saying, quote, she talks about how they like to express themselves and how at this
00:57:34.680
moment they like wearing dresses or pink or girly clothes. Just shut up. Now, the article notes that
00:57:40.640
Fox has spoken publicly about her cross-dressing children a number of times because, of course,
00:57:47.960
she's spoken publicly about it. That's the whole point, is to speak publicly about it,
00:57:51.080
to get public attention. The Daily Dot continues,
00:57:53.280
in an interview with Glamour UK in April of 2022, Fox said that although she cannot control the way
00:57:59.740
other people react to my children, she can do her best to make them feel loved and accepted in their
00:58:04.120
home. Quote, Noah started wearing dresses when he was about two, and I bought a bunch of books that
00:58:08.760
sort of address these things and address the full spectrum of what this is, Fox shared in the
00:58:13.200
interview. Some of the books are written by transgender children. Some of the books are just
00:58:16.800
about how you can be a boy and wear a dress. You can express yourself through your clothing,
00:58:20.800
however you want. That doesn't even have anything to do with sexuality. This has generally been the
00:58:25.840
defense. Megan Fox is not pushing anything on her sons. She's just giving them room to explore and be
00:58:31.240
themselves, we're told. The website Education and Career News has more quotes from the actress on this
00:58:37.260
subject, though I'm not sure what any of this has to do with education or career news. Quote,
00:58:40.720
when I became pregnant with Noah, I could feel through my mother's intuition, I suppose,
00:58:46.020
that he was not subscribing to gender stereotypes. So I decided to provide an environment for him early
00:58:50.740
on that would allow him to discover how he wanted to express himself. She says, Fox encourages other
00:58:56.760
parents to implement non-gender binary lifestyles for their children. Start by giving kids, quote,
00:59:01.700
the space to find the things that resonate with them, she says, then encourage them. Quote,
00:59:06.440
it's not our job to shape them into people we think they should be, says Fox. It's our job to
00:59:11.820
receive with grace the lessons they bring us. Children are mirrors that reflect back to us our
00:59:18.300
shadow selves, our shame and our insecurities. Quote, it's our job to love and nurture the child
00:59:24.580
as they are so they can thrive as adults. Ah, so we're told that Fox isn't pushing this on her son,
00:59:31.640
that she's merely giving them space to express themselves. She's letting them lead the way.
00:59:36.440
And the case of her oldest son, he started leading the way when he was still in the womb.
00:59:41.420
When he was, according to the pro-abortion Megan Fox, still not even human, not a person.
00:59:46.380
He was still somehow sending signals from the womb that he very much wanted to cross-dress and
00:59:50.720
be gender fluid. Fox received these mystical messages sent from the non-human entity in her womb
00:59:57.260
and then began dressing him as a girl when he was still a toddler. This would appear very much
01:00:02.220
to be an example of the mother foisting this on the son, making this decision for him. Actually,
01:00:09.460
it doesn't appear that way. It just is that way. And that's the way it always is in these kinds of
01:00:14.880
situations because parents are in charge of their young children, whether they want to be or not.
01:00:20.340
It doesn't make any sense to say that your four-year-old son started wearing dresses.
01:00:24.480
I mean, what do you mean started? Did he get in the car himself, drive down to the store,
01:00:29.000
pick out his own skirts, and pay for them with his own credit card? Did he walk out of his room
01:00:33.700
one morning in girl clothes and say, hey, mom, what do you think? Just ran out to Target yesterday,
01:00:38.160
picked these up, also grabbed some more coffee filters because, you know, we were running low.
01:00:42.140
I mean, is that how it works with a four-year-old? Presumably not. The boy starts wearing girl clothes
01:00:47.860
because the mother decides to go out and buy the girl clothes and bring them home and dress her son in
01:00:54.640
them. That's not the boy expressing himself. This is the boy expressing the mother's desires.
01:01:02.440
Fox says that it's not our job as parents to shape our children into the people they should be. She
01:01:06.460
says that it's our job to learn from them. But she's absolutely going out of her way to shape her
01:01:12.540
boys into non-binary cross-dressers. She made that decision for them before they were born and admits it.
01:01:18.980
She's not letting her children take the lead. She has them by the hand and is guiding them into a
01:01:26.100
life of confusion and emasculation. And just to be clear, the guiding part is not the problem.
01:01:34.340
I'm not suggesting that she should be letting them take the lead or that she should actually be
01:01:38.820
abiding by the nonsense that she spews about not shaping her children into the people they should be.
01:01:42.940
No, it is absolutely our job as parents to lead our kids. It is our job to shape them into the
01:01:49.600
people they should be. That is our job. That's the whole point of parenting. If the whole point was
01:01:54.600
simply to keep them fed and sheltered and nothing else, then they wouldn't even need parents.
01:01:59.540
Feeding and sheltering is the easy part. Anyone can do that. The hard part of parenting,
01:02:05.280
the parenting part of parenting, is to tend to our children's emotional, psychological,
01:02:09.820
and moral formation. It's to teach them how to live in the world, how to be well-adjusted
01:02:14.460
and thriving members of society. Kids are not born with this knowledge. These are not skills that
01:02:20.460
are infused into children in infancy through some mystical force. They need their parents to lead them.
01:02:27.580
If you're following the lead of your children, you will be following them in circles and then over a
01:02:32.420
cliff, literally maybe. Now, I know that if I followed my children's lead, they would all be dead about
01:02:38.900
a hundred times over by now. So this parenting advice from Megan Fox is unsurprisingly nonsensical.
01:02:45.720
Yet, as we establish, she doesn't follow it herself. Her problem is not that she's hands-off.
01:02:50.940
It's not that she puts them in front and follows behind. It's that she does lead, but leads them
01:02:56.480
deeper into confusion, leads them away from understanding themselves and their place in the
01:03:02.240
world. Leads them away from their own masculinity, their own identities. Because as it turns out,
01:03:09.260
of all the things a child needs to be taught, perhaps the most important lesson is how to be
01:03:14.400
themselves. Okay, a boy needs to be taught what it means to be a boy, what boys should do, how they
01:03:23.440
should act, how they should operate in the world, what their roles and responsibilities are.
01:03:28.160
Now, you might say that there ought to be no preconceived notions about what boyhood means,
01:03:34.080
but that is itself a preconceived notion. And if you raise your boy according to it,
01:03:40.000
you will be leaving him to wander the forest without any kind of map or any landmarks to orient himself
01:03:45.340
with. When you say to a boy, yes, you were born male, but that fact has absolutely no significance
01:03:52.020
and means exactly nothing. You're not freeing him to be himself. You're depriving him of himself.
01:03:58.900
You have just told him that his self, his actual physical identity is meaningless.
01:04:05.520
That's not freedom. That's despair. I mean, even if it was possible for a boy to be something other
01:04:11.760
than a boy, for him to choose some identity apart from boyhood, how could he make that choice if he
01:04:16.700
doesn't know what being a boy is to begin with? How can he reject an identity that he doesn't
01:04:22.300
understand? But of course, it's not possible. Boys are boys no matter how they feel or more specifically
01:04:28.700
how their mothers feel. They only have this one identity and it's up to us as parents to guide
01:04:35.100
them towards a more full understanding of it, which we can't do by dressing them like girls.
01:04:41.880
And that is why Megan Fox is today canceled. And that'll do it for the show today and this week.
01:04:49.600
We're off tomorrow. We're back on Monday. Have a great weekend. Talk to you Monday. Godspeed.
