The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1198 - Chicago Mayor Worries That We're Being Too Mean To The Thugs Terrorizing His City

00:00:00.140 Today on the Matt Wall Show, gangs of violent teenagers terrorize Chicago while the mayor

00:00:04.340 worries about using appropriate and inoffensive language when referring to them.

00:00:07.860 People can only take so much of this crime and violence before they start taking matters

00:00:11.440 into their own hands.

00:00:12.220 We'll talk about that.

00:00:13.000 Also, Al Sharpton wonders what might have happened if Thomas Jefferson tried to overthrow

00:00:16.940 the government.

00:00:17.540 A fascinating hypothetical.

00:00:19.060 The White House conspires with Facebook to suppress content from the Daily Wire.

00:00:21.680 The media claims that Florida has now banned psychology classes and a porn star gives out

00:00:26.760 marriage advice.

00:00:27.560 It's as bad as you might expect.

00:00:28.880 All of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:00:38.880 Well, if you want some positive news in the culture war, since Roe v. Wade was overturned, 0.65

00:00:42.660 the left has lost their minds making abortion their official sacrament.

00:00:45.960 The pro-life efforts, which are now more important than ever, are booming.

00:00:49.160 You heard that right.

00:00:49.680 Despite the narrative, pro-lifers did not go away.

00:00:52.040 They increased in number.

00:00:53.080 In fact, as one of the largest pro-life organizations in the world, no one is in a better position

00:00:57.340 than 40 Days for Life to end abortion in each state in a post-Roe America. 0.97

00:01:00.660 40 Days for Life is changing hearts and minds in the most blue pro-abortion states out there.

00:01:04.560 They have a record number of locations since Roe was overturned, and they grew in both volunteers

00:01:08.840 and locations.

00:01:10.200 With about 1 million volunteers in 1,500 cities, they hold peaceful vigils outside abortion

00:01:14.160 facilities.

00:01:14.880 You can help them fight the ongoing legal battles by protecting free speech for their volunteers

00:01:22.760 That's 40daysforlife.com.

00:01:25.260 Two years ago, a 20-year-old student at the University of Chicago named Max Lewis boarded

00:01:29.800 a subway car on the city's green line.

00:01:32.540 Lewis had just finished another day interning at an investment bank in downtown Chicago.

00:01:36.460 He was on his way back to his apartment from work.

00:01:39.380 Then, without warning, a stray bullet tore through the subway's car window, and it hit Lewis

00:01:44.380 in the neck.

00:01:44.880 Doctors quickly determined that Max Lewis had been paralyzed from the neck down.

00:01:48.260 He'd never be able to eat or walk again or breathe on his own or anything like that.

00:01:53.660 But Lewis could communicate with his eyes, and by blinking and using a letter board, he

00:01:57.780 sent this message to his family.

00:02:00.460 If I have to live like this, pull the plug.

00:02:02.700 Please, seriously.

00:02:04.380 Doctors took Max Lewis off of life support, and he died in the hospital shortly afterwards.

00:02:09.560 Now, it's a horrifying story, tragic story, but it's not especially unusual in

00:02:14.740 Chicago.

00:02:15.600 That same weekend that Max Lewis was shot in the neck, at least 100 other residents of

00:02:19.440 Chicago were hit by gunfire.

00:02:21.160 18 died in one weekend.

00:02:24.160 A few days later, Chicago's mayor at the time, Lori Lightfoot, gave an interview with CNN

00:02:28.580 in Chicago's West Garfield Park neighborhood.

00:02:31.640 She was surrounded by bodyguards for the whole interview, and Lori Lightfoot did not offer

00:02:35.360 any sympathy for the family of Max Lewis, nor did she propose any solution to the city's

00:02:39.500 rampant crime problem.

00:02:40.320 Instead, in the interview, Lori Lightfoot made it clear who the real victim is in Chicago,

00:02:45.700 and the victim is, of course, Lori Lightfoot.

00:02:48.560 Quote, I'm a black woman, and I'm a member of the LGBTQ community.

00:02:52.260 It's not okay that systemic racism, homophobia, and sexism still exist, but I'm going to play

00:02:57.280 the cards that I'm dealt.

00:02:59.460 Now, this pattern repeated in Chicago over and over and over again for years, until finally

00:03:03.600 the residents of Chicago had enough of Lori Lightfoot's malevolence and incompetence. 1.00

00:03:07.480 Earlier this year, Lightfoot became the first mayor of Chicago to lose re-election in 40

00:03:12.100 years in the city.

00:03:13.720 Lori Lightfoot's replacement was a former social studies teacher named Brandon Johnson.

00:03:17.600 Like every other mayor that's been elected in Chicago since 1927, Brandon Johnson is

00:03:22.260 a Democrat.

00:03:23.860 During the campaign, Johnson did not propose any serious solutions to the rampant crime

00:03:27.980 problem in Chicago.

00:03:28.900 Instead, he ran on a platform of anti-white racism and defunding the police department.

00:03:32.980 Brandon Johnson took office just about two months ago.

00:03:37.480 One of the first major tests of his new administration came on Sunday night, this past Sunday, when

00:03:42.380 a mob began looting stores, fighting in public, and destroying property in the South Loop.

00:03:46.400 Now, this is considered one of the nicer areas of the city for what it's worth.

00:03:50.100 The bar's pretty low, admittedly, but it's one of the nicer areas.

00:03:53.460 And here's what it looked like this weekend.

00:03:55.100 Watch.

00:03:55.280 Chaos outside a South Loop 7-Eleven Sunday night.

00:04:02.020 The crowd seen here rushing out of the store with their arms full of items, some throwing

00:04:05.900 them in the air.

00:04:07.100 Inside the store, aisles were ravaged and ransacked.

00:04:10.080 Police say now 40 people, mostly teens, are facing misdemeanor charges as a result of

00:04:14.960 the so-called teen takeover.

00:04:16.520 We haven't arrested people like that, but this group got so out of hand that we had no choice.

00:04:21.640 Police say once the crowd got out of hand, officers had no choice but to make arrests.

00:04:27.380 Alvin Jackson saw the crowd at Roosevelt and Canal grow from a few dozen to a few hundred.

00:04:31.180 Just a few kids.

00:04:32.180 Then it got thicker and thicker and thicker and they kept coming and kept coming and kept

00:04:34.380 coming.

00:04:35.380 Alvin says at first, things appeared to be peaceful.

00:04:37.380 Then a small group of teenagers started to block traffic and attempt to break into stores.

00:04:40.320 Throwing the bottles, jumping on people, cars, trying to start fights and trying to run

00:04:45.640 into stores and stuff like that.

00:04:47.320 Police say once the crowd got out of hand, officers had no choice but to make arrests.

00:04:51.600 Hmm.

00:04:52.600 What a shame.

00:04:53.600 Had to arrest them.

00:04:54.600 You notice the one guy in the clip says, uh, well, we wouldn't normally arrest people

00:04:58.260 like this.

00:04:59.260 We had no choice.

00:05:00.260 We had to.

00:05:01.260 It's a tragedy.

00:05:02.260 We had to arrest them.

00:05:03.260 They had to suffer some minor consequences.

00:05:04.260 What a terrible thing.

00:05:05.260 Now, you hear the media there, um, calling this a teen takeover, which is maybe the most

00:05:10.020 innocuous possible term they could use.

00:05:12.140 It sounds like a birthday party at the local swimming pool.

00:05:15.140 In reality, as anyone could see, it was rioting.

00:05:17.300 And by the way, not all the criminals were teens.

00:05:20.100 Many of them were teens, but certainly not all of them.

00:05:23.820 At least one journalist didn't want to whitewash this complete breakdown of public safety in

00:05:27.980 one of America's major cities.

00:05:29.760 And this reporter asked Brandon Johnson what he was going to do about the mob violence in

00:05:34.100 the South Loop.

00:05:35.100 Brandon Johnson responded by attacking the reporter's choice of language.

00:05:40.100 Watch.

00:05:41.100 Mayor Johnson spent about an hour talking with the press.

00:05:43.820 Yeah, Jim and Marie, and the most recent incident of teenagers and young adults converging

00:05:49.420 and overwhelming in one area of the city was a big topic of conversation.

00:05:54.720 It just happened this past weekend.

00:05:56.320 And in that instance, they caused a lot of damage.

00:05:58.700 The mayor responded this way, though, when someone characterized it as mob action.

00:06:03.760 That's not appropriate.

00:06:04.760 We're not talking about mob actions.

00:06:05.760 I didn't say that.

00:06:10.760 Hold on a second.

00:06:11.760 Okay?

00:06:12.760 Respectfully.

00:06:13.760 These large gatherings, these large gatherings, just hold on a second, y'all.

00:06:20.260 I promise you, we have time to talk.

00:06:24.220 It's important that we speak of these dynamics in an appropriate way.

00:06:28.540 This is not to obfuscate what has actually taken place.

00:06:32.900 This was the scene near Roosevelt and Canal Sunday night.

00:06:36.140 Groups looted a convenience store.

00:06:39.720 Just impotence personified.

00:06:42.480 It's the Lori Lightfoot approach.

00:06:44.720 Don't blame the criminals.

00:06:46.320 Blame the people who noticed the criminals.

00:06:48.640 Because they're the problem.

00:06:49.980 Because they're using the wrong language.

00:06:51.700 That's the real issue here is the language.

00:06:53.660 It's not the thing that's happening.

00:06:55.180 It's the language we use to describe the thing that's happening.

00:06:58.480 We see this a lot on the left, of course.

00:07:01.560 It's one of the hallmarks of leftism, in fact.

00:07:03.800 It's this preoccupation with language.

00:07:05.640 And every time they fixate on language, it's always to obfuscate the issue.

00:07:09.880 They're not trying to be precise.

00:07:11.280 In fact, it's the opposite of being precise.

00:07:13.580 They're trying to confuse as many people as possible.

00:07:16.280 According to Johnson, the preferred term for what you just saw in Chicago is not mob violence

00:07:21.400 or riot, but instead large gathering.

00:07:23.920 Yes, a large gathering.

00:07:24.920 You know, like a concert or a Chick-fil-A drive-thru.

00:07:28.360 Through a large gathering like that.

00:07:31.440 Is there a single person alive who thinks that's the most accurate, useful terminology

00:07:35.920 in this situation?

00:07:37.020 I mean, if any normal person witnessed this and then got home and told their family about

00:07:41.560 it, would they describe?

00:07:42.540 I just saw a, it was a large gathering of individuals.

00:07:48.560 Any normal person says, I just saw a mob, a violent mob.

00:07:51.740 It was crazy.

00:07:52.340 But large gathering implies, intentionally, that nothing criminal occurred at all.

00:07:58.800 A Thanksgiving dinner with 20 people could be described as a large gathering.

00:08:03.500 But Johnson insists that that's the appropriate way to talk about what happened.

00:08:08.260 And then he says, with no hint of irony whatsoever, quote, this is not to obfuscate what has actually

00:08:12.740 taken place.

00:08:13.260 But of course, that's the entire point of what he's doing.

00:08:15.320 That's why people like Brandon Johnson claim they're redirecting funds from the police instead

00:08:20.160 of saying they're defunding them.

00:08:21.940 That's why they use terms like gender-affirming care instead of talking about double mastectomies 0.53

00:08:26.340 and sterilization.

00:08:28.100 That's why they call the victims of abortion fetuses instead of babies.

00:08:31.300 The objective of Johnson's movement at every single turn is to obfuscate what's actually

00:08:36.880 taking place.

00:08:38.560 And what is taking place?

00:08:39.900 Well, the destruction of the foundational elements of Western civilization, that's what's taking

00:08:44.580 place.

00:08:46.240 And that includes the nuclear family.

00:08:47.940 It includes the law and order.

00:08:50.720 What's actually taking place, although you're not supposed to talk about it, is that major

00:08:54.400 cities in this country are careening so quickly towards total disorder, we'll probably be seeing

00:09:00.060 Koreans on rooftops soon. 0.98

00:09:02.300 These are not isolated incidents that we're talking about.

00:09:04.400 This is a pattern.

00:09:06.180 Here's what Chicago looked like back in April, just a few months ago.

00:09:09.120 Watch.

00:09:09.900 Well, that's another large gathering for you.

00:09:33.340 I mean, that's all it is, remember?

00:09:34.540 A large gathering, like a church picnic.

00:09:37.780 Now, Brandon Johnson, who was the mayor-elect at the time, responded to that violence he

00:09:44.280 just saw with a written statement saying that it was not constructive to demonize youth who

00:09:49.080 have otherwise been starved of opportunities in their own communities.

00:09:53.160 Of course, he gets this exactly backwards.

00:09:55.340 The job opportunities are leaving these communities because these people are making the communities

00:10:01.440 unlivable.

00:10:02.200 Okay, they aren't starved of opportunities.

00:10:04.860 They are chasing the opportunities away.

00:10:08.840 It's like if you see a bunch of people throwing food into a garbage can, you're probably not

00:10:12.700 going to describe them as starving.

00:10:14.760 That's not what starving people do.

00:10:17.320 And if they do starve after throwing their food away, guess whose fault it is?

00:10:21.460 Any one of those people could walk into the local convenience store and ask for a job and they'd

00:10:26.780 probably get it because all these kinds of places are themselves starving for help.

00:10:31.600 But instead, they'd rather loot the place and rob from it, and that's their choice.

00:10:39.480 At any rate, it's fair to conclude that this is the prepared talking point of Johnson's

00:10:44.960 administration in response to mob violence.

00:10:46.720 Every time his city is besieged by rioters, he's going to lecture you for noticing.

00:10:50.840 He's going to police your language. 0.99

00:10:53.820 Back in April, Johnson was asked about his written statement on this subject, and here's

00:10:59.060 how he defended it.

00:11:00.220 Watch.

00:11:00.420 Look, demonizing children is wrong. 0.87

00:11:05.680 We have to keep them safe as well.

00:11:08.420 Have you ever taught middle school?

00:11:09.980 I have.

00:11:11.080 Have you ever raised young people?

00:11:12.980 Do you understand the risk that young people take just because they're young?

00:11:16.560 Do you know that home plate is at the bottom of my stairs?

00:11:19.880 I found that out when my son was sliding down those stairs trying to score.

00:11:24.640 They're young.

00:11:25.740 Sometimes they make silly decisions.

00:11:27.920 They do.

00:11:28.440 And so we have to make sure that we are investing to make sure that young people know that they

00:11:32.100 are supported.

00:11:32.700 Oh, they're just children.

00:11:36.380 They're just children making silly decisions.

00:11:39.220 You know, a silly decision that a child makes is like when my three-year-old tried to paint

00:11:46.080 her face with ketchup.

00:11:47.080 Like, that's a silly decision that children make.

00:11:52.640 Not this.

00:11:54.420 But this is what he tells us.

00:11:55.780 They're young.

00:11:56.280 They make silly decisions like, you know, setting cars on fire, assaulting police officers, randomly attacking

00:12:03.860 pedestrians, that sort of thing.

00:12:05.520 Now, you know, maybe you'd understand that, though, if you were a former middle school teacher like

00:12:11.820 Brandon Johnson is.

00:12:12.740 But you're not, so you can't possibly understand.

00:12:14.980 It's clear that, like so many other Democrats, Johnson is totally unequipped to handle rampant

00:12:19.380 crime in his city.

00:12:20.660 Leftist ideology has, at this point, left reality and all of reality's concerns completely behind.

00:12:25.940 These people are not living in the same universe as normal taxpaying Americans, let alone the

00:12:30.640 same city.

00:12:32.200 They hear about hundreds of shooting victims, and they start talking about homophobia.

00:12:36.400 They see a mob of people robbing stores and setting cars on fire, and they say it's just

00:12:40.120 silly.

00:12:41.220 It's a fun prank.

00:12:42.840 It's like putting a whoopee cushion on someone's chair, you know, that sort of thing.

00:12:47.280 That's not to confine the problem to Johnson or to Lori Lightfoot.

00:12:50.100 This is now the default position of the Democratic Party in response to mob violence everywhere.

00:12:54.540 We see it anywhere Democrats are in charge.

00:12:57.240 If they're in an entrenched position of power, this is what you see.

00:13:01.300 And it's leading to predictable results.

00:13:03.080 This was Compton a few months ago.

00:13:05.000 Watch.

00:13:06.080 Chaos in Compton when a sideshow erupts into looting.

00:13:17.480 This is at the intersection of Central and Alondra.

00:13:20.360 A huge crowd taking part in a sideshow turned on a nearby gas station, smashing windows and

00:13:25.580 doors until they got in and then looted the place.

00:13:27.760 Thousands of dollars of goods were stolen.

00:13:30.620 Deputies had been dispatched to the area but were unable to intervene as they were outnumbered.

00:13:34.700 Only one arrest was made.

00:13:37.160 A sideshow erupts into looting.

00:13:40.200 A huge crowd taking part in a sideshow suddenly got out of control for no reason, according to

00:13:44.860 Fox 11.

00:13:46.120 Sounds so innocuous.

00:13:47.640 Who could have anticipated that the sideshow would erupt into looting?

00:13:52.020 It's as unpredictable as your neighbor's backyard barbecue erupting into a mass shooting.

00:13:57.380 We also hear that kind of thing from the media, too.

00:14:00.040 What are you going to do?

00:14:00.800 You couldn't possibly know.

00:14:04.100 But as it happens, there's not much to do, apparently.

00:14:05.980 As the anchor said, just one arrest was made.

00:14:08.580 Imagine that.

00:14:09.180 Of course, Chicago and Compton aren't the only towns with a George Soros-backed DA where

00:14:13.700 these kinds of sideshows are common.

00:14:16.300 We could show you similar videos out of Philadelphia and many other cities.

00:14:19.480 In the case of Philly, a recent episode of mob violence was described by local media as

00:14:23.320 a flash mob.

00:14:24.920 And what did this flash mob do?

00:14:26.220 Did they perform a coordinated dance routine or something?

00:14:28.820 No, they waved guns around and injured police officers.

00:14:31.780 Just an innocent flash mob, our media reports.

00:14:33.960 Officials and media outlets can condone riots all they want.

00:14:38.040 They can use whatever euphemisms they choose.

00:14:40.980 But at some point, stakeholders, people who own shops and own homes in these communities

00:14:45.520 will fight back.

00:14:46.800 And indeed, that's already happening.

00:14:48.840 You may have seen this video from the other day.

00:14:50.660 It shows store owners in California beating a guy with a stick after he empties out their

00:14:55.020 inventory of cigarettes.

00:14:56.600 Here's what happened as the thief tried to leave.

00:15:00.400 Watch.

00:15:00.500 Watch out, bud.

00:15:03.040 Watch out, bud.

00:15:03.060 I know you can do it, man.

00:15:04.000 Don't do that.

00:15:04.940 Don't do that, man.

00:15:06.100 Don't do that.

00:15:18.640 Okay.

00:15:19.220 Okay.

00:15:20.440 Okay.

00:15:23.100 Okay.

00:15:23.700 i have to admit i'm a sucker for a heartwarming video i uh i could watch that all day um i don't

00:15:42.640 get all emotional about it but it's just sometimes you see these kind of uplifting videos like that

00:15:46.400 now if you watch the whole thing you'll notice that the narrator of that clip the guy recording

00:15:49.920 it starts out on the side of the robber he tells the store owners that they can't do anything because

00:15:54.680 they'll get in trouble nothing you can do that the person says and it's clear why he said that

00:15:59.000 we've all seen the reports of store employees being fired or arrested in some cases because

00:16:03.280 they tried to stop shoplifters shoplifters and in this case um the shoplifter claimed that he had a

00:16:08.560 gun so there's even more reason for these store owners to stay back but they don't the store owners

00:16:13.960 stepped up regardless of whatever personal consequences they might suffer and then and

00:16:18.400 this is the key moment when the robber is subdued and he's getting his ass beat by a large stick

00:16:25.120 the narrator celebrates he takes the side of the store owners what does that tell us tells us that

00:16:31.260 when strong people take action everybody else gets the message very quickly all it takes is some

00:16:37.080 bravery some decisive action for everybody else to fall in line you ever notice that the riots in

00:16:43.200 kenosha wisconsin stopped after the night that kyle rittenhouse defended the local businesses and himself

00:16:47.860 from the mob there's a reason for that but the leaders of the biggest cities in the country have

00:16:53.060 no interest in defending their communities or taking any decisive action whatsoever instead they're

00:16:56.540 making excuses let's go back to the brandon johnson press conference from a few months ago the one where

00:17:01.080 he defends the mob i mean one of the press conferences where he defends the mob because he does this all the

00:17:04.780 time but watch what he says about the root causes of violence you can make sure that that that we we

00:17:13.500 eradicate the root causes that lead to violence and we also can make sure that there's support on the front

00:17:20.480 line to make sure that we're preventing violence it's a false choice so brandon johnson wants to

00:17:26.640 eradicate the root causes of violence what are those root causes he doesn't really say in that particular

00:17:32.700 press conference but you can probably guess the root causes for him are white supremacy and the police and so on

00:17:37.280 what brandon johnson doesn't reflect on is why all of this crime and destruction in our cities

00:17:42.960 is not only happening but why is it so pointless and arbitrary why are teenagers gathering to set cars

00:17:50.120 on fire what exactly are they gaining from that why are they gathering by the hundreds for no apparent

00:17:53.940 reason to commit acts of violence not stealing food they're not doing anything for survival in many

00:17:58.000 cases they're not even doing it for money some cases they steal stuff and just throw it on the ground

00:18:01.700 this is destruction for the sake of it what johnson and his party will never say because it's true is that

00:18:08.840 we're seeing the results of multiple generations of children raised with essentially no moral formation

00:18:13.980 no parental guidance no sense of purpose they come from fatherless homes they're taught by unionized 0.69

00:18:19.360 employees who would rather be on vacation than in the classroom they're given smartphones before they learn

00:18:23.880 their multiplication tables if they ever learn them which most of them don't and then when they commit

00:18:28.120 serious crimes the people in charge blame everyone but them that's what's happening when laurie lightfoot

00:18:34.760 says it's racist to criticize her she's also saying it's racist to criticize the delinquents we see in

00:18:39.720 these videos but it's not people who form mobs to destroy property are behaving like animals that should go

00:18:45.720 to prison for a long time and unless we can say that we will never address the root causes that johnson

00:18:52.500 claims to care about it'll only get worse more people get beaten with sticks and 7-elevens more

00:18:58.920 college students will get shot on the subway eventually law-abiding citizens won't take it anymore

00:19:04.140 a critical mass of voters will demand the el salvador solution which is suspend civil liberties

00:19:09.620 round up the criminals throw away the key that's the way these things always go

00:19:14.820 the lesson of history on this point is very clear people can only take so much now let's get to our

00:19:23.820 five headlines as many of you know we have uh been giving our dog rough greens for a while now and we

00:20:51.920 his 7 000th indictment i think we're on now and uh not a whole lot to say about his arraignment it all

00:20:57.020 played out exactly as expected but there was one amusing moment provided by msnbc and specifically al

00:21:05.500 sharpton who was uh who was there to offer his analysis and his insights well here's what here

00:21:12.100 was sharpton's analysis of uh everything that's going on listen one day our children's children will read

00:21:19.600 american history and can you imagine our reading that james madison or thomas jefferson tried to

00:21:26.860 overthrow the government so they can stay in power that's what we're looking at we're looking at american

00:21:32.020 history can you imagine can you imagine if thomas jefferson tried to overthrow the government can you

00:21:37.800 imagine can you imagine if michael jordan dunked a basketball can you imagine if uh if muhammad ali

00:21:43.360 was a boxer can you imagine can you imagine if the titanic sank can you imagine what would have

00:21:48.840 happened if that had occurred i can't i can't imagine i it's impossible to imagine al you're right

00:21:54.940 your point is very astute you really have a way of putting things into perspective you really do

00:21:59.820 wow now of course sharpton is a babbling idiot he has the insight and intelligence of like a 0.63

00:22:06.120 sea cucumber but since he brought it up you know of course we know that thomas jefferson

00:22:11.480 a little bit of american history for you kids thomas jefferson did rebel against the government

00:22:16.200 that's how our country was formed and um well we know that al doesn't apparently but it does raise an

00:22:24.560 interesting question actually i mean inadvertently he raises an interesting question that i i think

00:22:29.580 about a lot which is uh how would thomas jefferson and the founding fathers respond to our government

00:22:37.360 right now and obviously the answer is they would violently overthrow it like if if our founding

00:22:46.300 fathers were on the scene right now january 6th would be a uh would be would be a walk in the park it

00:22:53.380 would be a picnic compared to what they would do and they wouldn't even think about it like if thomas

00:22:59.560 jefferson came back from the dead and looked at our government now he would he would turn to us

00:23:03.420 the citizens and say what are you people doing you haven't invaded washington yet and killed all

00:23:08.740 these people what are you waiting for what's the problem here what's the hold up folks i'm not

00:23:14.300 advocating for that i'm just telling you what jefferson would say okay just taxes alone all

00:23:21.140 right not even taking everything else into account the giant behemoth central government uh which is by

00:23:26.440 the way far larger and more powerful and more invasive than the government that the founders rebelled

00:23:31.600 against okay they had significantly more freedom than we do now it's not even close actually but

00:23:41.200 just the taxes okay these guys rebelled over a tax on t and there was more to it than that but

00:23:50.500 a tax on t was was a big part of it so think about that a tax on t well we have taxes on t

00:23:58.200 you know you go buy a snapple or something it's gonna be taxed but we have a tax on literally

00:24:03.500 everything you you wake up in the morning and you turn on your light and you're already getting taxed

00:24:08.900 okay you can't even get out of your bedroom before the tax is set in um you you go into your kitchen and

00:24:15.700 you pour your taxed coffee into your taxed mug or if you prefer tea that'll be taxed too

00:24:22.000 and you get in your car which is taxed and it's running on gasoline which is taxed and

00:24:27.660 you get onto the highway that you pay a toll to even get on the highway in the first place and

00:24:31.380 you go to work and you're getting taxed just to work your income is taxed before you even get a

00:24:35.500 get your hands on it the government comes in and takes uh takes whatever it wants and gives you the

00:24:40.140 the the remainder gives you the leftover you know they give you an allow the government gives you an

00:24:44.900 allowance of your own income because they get their hands on it first through the magic of the

00:24:49.060 withholding system um thomas jefferson would not even consider putting up with this it wouldn't be

00:24:58.620 there'd be nothing to talk about he he'd be calling for an armed rebellion and insisting that the irs

00:25:04.040 building be be torched to the ground that's what he would say like that's that's the lineage of our

00:25:10.700 country those these are the men who founded our country that's the attitude they had they weren't shy

00:25:15.840 about violence obviously and uh and they were much more um uh perhaps we would say liberal in its

00:25:25.460 application liberal understood it you know in a different way than we are today just the fact of

00:25:32.180 the matter um and and you you can if you study that era of history and you look at the things that they

00:25:38.120 were upset about and that they were complaining about it's almost it's almost jarring you know in a way

00:25:43.560 when you if you if you haven't studied much about america's founding and the revolutionary war and

00:25:49.600 all that and you go back and you read it now it's almost from the modern perspective you think well

00:25:54.280 what was the problem really you're upset about that that that was the tyranny that was the tyranny

00:26:00.700 compared to this we got locked in our homes for two years yeah they went it's they forced us all to

00:26:05.840 wear muzzles they're they're forcibly injected chemicals into our body and you guys are upset about that 1.00

00:26:12.320 means either that they they were incredibly petty and our country was founded on pettiness

00:26:20.700 or we have developed uh an incredible tolerance for a level of tyranny and oppression that would have

00:26:31.500 been unthinkable to the men who founded this country so it's one of those two and i think it's

00:26:36.280 more the second al sharpton brought it up and i'm just he's asking us to imagine and so i'm imagining

00:26:44.320 and this is where my imaginings take me all right speaking of uh the tyranny daily wire has this

00:26:51.780 report shortly after taking office in january 2021 president joe biden's administration pressured

00:26:56.660 facebook to stifle the daily wires reach on the platform and boost the reach of legacy media outlets

00:27:01.460 according to meeting notes recently turned over to congress the newly released documents which were

00:27:06.340 reviewed by the daily wire show that facebook repeatedly confirmed to the white house that

00:27:09.700 it was working to re-engineer its platform in order to accomplish the administration's directives on

00:27:13.840 suppressing content that clashed with its covid vaccine agenda the meeting notes first reported by

00:27:19.120 just the news detailed discussions then white house digital director rob flarity uh had with facebook

00:27:25.060 executives in 2021 where the biden staffer pressured the big tech company to moderate content related to

00:27:31.040 covet vaccines in order to enforce the administration's policy goals during one meeting

00:27:35.400 on april 14th 2021 flarity asked facebook about changing the algorithm to push content from the

00:27:43.100 new york times and the wall street journal over news from the daily wire and other polarizing entities

00:27:48.120 quote if you were to change the algorithm so that people were more likely to see uh new york times

00:27:53.740 wall street journal any authoritative news source over daily wire tommy laran polarizing people

00:27:58.120 you wouldn't have a mechanism to check the material impact he asked um at the time of the meeting in

00:28:04.880 april 2021 and in the months following the daily wire was the leading publisher on facebook getting more

00:28:09.300 far more clicks and reactions than the new york times wall street journal and every other conservative

00:28:13.180 liberal news site the meeting notes show the biden administration telling facebook that it was

00:28:17.400 concerned about misinformation on the platform that caused many americans to be hesitant about rolling up

00:28:22.260 their sleeves and getting vaccinated now it's funny because you'll still sometimes hear from some

00:28:29.100 conservative critics of ours of the daily wire that the daily wire is somehow part of the establishment

00:28:35.780 right or whatever you still see this and uh one of the establishment or establishment shills over here

00:28:43.360 at the daily wire meanwhile there are meetings at the white house about how to reduce our reach

00:28:48.220 okay we have the white house conspiring against us youtube is demonetizing us fox news has blacklisted

00:28:53.220 us we have fact checkers quote unquote and media watchdogs quote unquote leftist activists activist

00:28:58.180 groups working around the clock to put out hit pieces scare away advertisers try to bankrupt us on and on and on

00:29:05.040 we are to put it mildly not a part of this club okay we don't want to be in it and we certainly aren't

00:29:12.820 invited uh they hate us and they hate us more than they hate most other outlets and people on the right

00:29:19.280 that's undeniable it just is and there's a reason you know i see all this as affirmation um we hear so

00:29:31.100 much about affirmation these days it's important to be affirmed well this this this is affirmation for

00:29:35.680 me i'm not happy about it i mean the plan to reduce our reach on facebook for example was

00:29:41.580 successful and uh very successful and we've taken a major major financial hit because of it i can tell

00:29:49.300 you that so i'm not happy about it i prefer that it wasn't happening but i know that it is happening

00:29:55.060 because they fear us and they fear us because we're effective you know if you let us on a level playing

00:30:00.600 field if you let us simply have access to the audience to our own audience like if you let us

00:30:07.420 people come to us and say hey i want more of this content i'm a fan of this i want to and then you let

00:30:12.080 us just access that audience nothing special we don't need any we don't need you to prop us up in

00:30:17.120 any special way just let us have access to our audience that's it and let the chips fall where they

00:30:21.820 may and if nobody's interested and and we're irrelevant then then fine then we'll all go to business and

00:30:28.300 we're gonna have to find other other jobs that could happen too but um we know that if you do that

00:30:34.080 we dominate you know we win the argument we uh we were the top publisher on facebook for a reason

00:30:41.320 we can win hearts and minds that's what we were doing we are doing their only recourse is to stifle

00:30:48.340 and silence us it's all they have that's all they have but even that's not working

00:30:53.420 because that's the thing that we also decided that we're not going to let these

00:30:57.960 bastards chase us away to some irrelevant corner of the internet to some internet ghetto 0.99

00:31:05.540 we're going to stay right in the thick of it and we're going to fight this out and that's what we're

00:31:09.860 doing and uh and you know deck is stacked against us in a big way on a lot of these platforms but

00:31:16.660 uh that's what we decided to do we're going to continue to do it and this to me is just more

00:31:21.780 confirmation that um that it's important fight to have all right what else the media has found a new

00:31:31.080 reason to panic over florida's education curriculum so we've it's every every few weeks it's another 0.90

00:31:37.020 thing you're not going to believe what what they're teaching down in florida in florida they're teaching

00:31:45.560 that that slavery was good it was good um so it's always something and here's the new thing that 0.96

00:31:51.760 they are that they're uh freaking out about usually it's it's made up sometimes though it's not made

00:31:57.140 up florida uh nbc news florida effectively banned advanced placement psychology classes in the state

00:32:04.020 due to the course's content on sexual orientation and gender identity the state's department of

00:32:08.700 education informed the college board that its ap psychology class is in violation of state law

00:32:13.540 according to the higher education non-profit said in a statement florida's parental rights and

00:32:18.160 education act or what critics have dubbed the don't say gay law no it's well critics yes but what

00:32:23.820 what liars and propagandists have dubbed the don't say gay law restricts the instruction of sexual

00:32:29.660 orientation and gender identity in the state's classrooms the college board said in a statement

00:32:33.740 quote the state's ban of this content removes choice from parents and students coming just days

00:32:39.340 from the start of school it derails the college readiness and affordability plans of tens of thousands

00:32:44.080 florida students currently registered for ap psychology one of the most popular ap classes

00:32:48.120 in the state the state's move to restrict ap psychology uh come several months after its decision

00:32:52.940 to block ap african-american studies courses that were widely condemned by academics and civil rights

00:32:58.040 activists so now they care about school choice now it's very now educational choice is very important

00:33:03.700 to these people the college board added that florida will allow superintendents to offer the

00:33:08.680 college level psychology class for high schoolers if they exclude lgbtq topics however the college

00:33:14.680 board argued that excluding the lessons which it describes as teachings on how sex and gender

00:33:19.680 influence socialization other aspects of development would censor college level standards okay so this

00:33:24.320 then you know we get a few paragraphs into it as always and we we start to see the real picture

00:33:31.120 come into view a little bit and that's what it is so they're not florida the headline is going to be

00:33:37.420 florida bans ap psychology and they they put that little qualifier effectively and they think that

00:33:44.900 that lets them off the hook and so they can it's it's not a lie anymore but it is a lie they haven't

00:33:49.500 effectively banned it or banned it or sort of banned it they they haven't that has not happened

00:33:53.340 now i say this as someone who i honestly wouldn't care if they did ban it okay psychology that psychology

00:34:01.460 uh it's it's all such a mess at this point that if they did ban it i think nothing would be lost

00:34:06.840 so the last thing that we need in the world right now is more psychologists that's the last thing

00:34:12.400 that we need and so if it was banned and the effect is that uh the fewer kids are getting into psychology

00:34:18.420 then that that makes the world a better place already okay um so i wouldn't even care if they

00:34:24.600 did if they actually banned it outright i'd say okay good yeah um the psychology industry has been an

00:34:32.080 absolute curse on mankind it's just just nothing but destruction in its wake uh but that's not what

00:34:41.760 has happened that is not what has happened here at all uh you can still teach psychology you can still

00:34:46.740 have to have the psychology classes everything's fine it's just that um the gender ideology if you

00:34:53.920 want to indoctrinate kids into gender ideology you can't do that that's not going to be allowed

00:34:58.880 the college board comes back and says well then that means we can't teach psychology and that only

00:35:04.180 proves exactly my point about psychology because they're the ones who are saying well if we can't

00:35:08.140 you know gender ideology is such a central piece of psychology now of this of the of the uh of you know

00:35:16.520 the psychology subject that we can't even teach it if you won't let us also teach that women have 1.00

00:35:23.620 penises and that's that is precisely my criticism of psychology as a whole as a subject in its current

00:35:31.240 form as an industry in its current form it is totally ideologically captured it is a mechanism the entire

00:35:40.200 thing for left-wing idea uh indoctrination and they apparently agree because they're the ones who are

00:35:47.680 saying look if we can't go out and say women have penises that we should castrate little boys that we 0.96

00:35:52.340 should sterilize kids it's very good to do if we can't do that if we can't say that then we can't 0.99

00:35:57.000 teach psychology because this is is such a crucial element of the whole subject according to them

00:36:01.020 and if that's true all that proves is that you is that there is a a major problem with the way that

00:36:09.520 you're teaching psychology um and of course there is so that's the way it always goes you know um it's

00:36:18.760 like it's no different from uh florida or any other state saying hey you can't um you can't distribute

00:36:28.400 pornography to students and then we hear from the schools well then we can't even give them books

00:36:34.620 you've banned books or the way you can't learn anything well if we can't give them gay porn then 1.00

00:36:40.300 our whole all of our lesson plans have now been destroyed we do nothing we can't do anything anymore

00:36:45.400 we can't even teach them two plus two you've banned books there's no books in the classroom

00:36:49.660 because we can't give out gay porn well if that's the case then that would show that there is something

00:36:56.460 deeply deeply wrong with like your fundamental approach to education if it interferes at all

00:37:06.400 in your mind with with with teaching kids basic subjects if you can't give them gay porn well that 0.88

00:37:12.460 that shows there's something wrong with you and with your approach you should be able to teach kids

00:37:17.300 just fine without giving them gay porn just like you should be able to teach kids psychology and ap level

00:37:25.980 psychology without getting into any of the gender ideology stuff so i don't have a problem with

00:37:31.400 psychology as a concept as a concept obviously it's quite not only have no problem with that i find it

00:37:36.900 quite interesting um but with the way that it's taught and the way the whole uh industry now is set

00:37:46.240 up is it is it is all centered around these left-wing superstitions like like gender ideology

00:37:53.660 speaking of which i wanted to play this clip before i get to the comment section this is a clip from

00:37:59.600 it's gone viral again i believe this is this clip's a few years old actually but this was

00:38:04.740 um here we have a gets a little confusing so i believe this is a mother and daughter

00:38:11.280 who are now pretending to be father and no it's a mother and son who are now pretending to be

00:38:19.460 father and daughter let's watch never seen a family like this we went from mother and son to father and

00:38:28.460 daughter that's right this father and daughter used to be mother and son 15 year old corey mason who

00:38:35.200 loves mascara and lip gloss was actually born a boy i always wanted to be a girl yeah i would always

00:38:42.580 you know like this you know like this i was always girly and this is the woman who gave birth to corey

00:38:49.000 and four other kids she never felt comfortable in her female body i definitely felt like a boy i

00:38:54.960 definitely felt like i identified with boys but i didn't realize it was possible that i could actually

00:39:00.120 be one it wasn't until four years ago when the two watched a tv special on transgender teen activist

00:39:06.860 jazz jennings that everything became clear i said wow i'm just like her i'm a girl trapped in a boy's body

00:39:15.180 corey started taking puberty blockers at age 11 to stop facial hair growth and deepening of the voice

00:39:21.540 this is the moment corey received her first dose of female hormones she's overcome with emotion

00:39:28.900 just seeing her courage and her bravery in the face of so much adversity just i think that's

00:39:36.700 ultimately what gave me the i think that's uh more than most of us can stomach and so a few things

00:39:41.960 there that that uh jump out at you um and really it starts with the the young the young boy saying

00:39:51.800 that he wanted to be a girl notice the language there you know and that's two things wanted to be

00:39:58.880 a girl and then later on the video we hear that uh he he's a he's a girl trapped in a boy's body now

00:40:05.320 if you listen to the proponents of gender ideology the so-called experts if you go to the

00:40:11.440 psychologists and the therapists and the academics and all these people um this is not the language

00:40:18.540 they use they're not going to say it like this they're not going to say well some boys want to

00:40:23.300 be girls or sometimes a boy has a girl trapped in his body they don't say that because they know

00:40:28.160 it's sounds crazy and it is crazy and it also sounds from a child it sounds just childish and it is

00:40:37.360 childish um and there's no way to justify it like for one thing wanted to be a boy i mean rather wanted

00:40:46.400 to be a girl well that that just well yeah maybe you did but that that doesn't mean you are one

00:40:51.680 so because the claim they're making is that this actually is a girl except that he's saying

00:40:57.660 i wanted to be one want to be one and i am one are two different things in fact the very fact that

00:41:06.320 you want to be one shows that you aren't because if you are something you don't sit around wishing

00:41:11.660 that you are the thing that you are no one does that i i haven't spent one second of my life sitting

00:41:17.300 around wishing that i'm a man i just am i don't wish that i am i am i'm happy to be who i am but i

00:41:23.800 don't i don't i don't wish to be it's and say i don't have to wish on a on a shooting star over

00:41:28.480 this i just am what i am and so if you if you're desiring it and wanting it then that shows that

00:41:33.660 you don't have it right um and then and then the bit about a girl a girl trapped in a boy's body

00:41:41.120 just doesn't make any sense like what do you mean that that makes no sense what does that actually

00:41:47.780 mean do you mean you have the soul of a girl that somehow got stuck in a boy's body do you mean

00:41:52.220 you have a someone some kind of brain transplant someone took the brain out of a girl and put it 0.80

00:41:56.400 in your head and doesn't belong they're like what do you mean um and from a child it's like yeah this

00:42:04.460 is the way that a child is going to think about it we don't blame the child for that the child is

00:42:08.820 confused because he's a child and you take any kid that age and you feed him this nonsense they'll

00:42:13.800 believe it as i've pointed out many times you tell young kids that there's a flying fat man it

00:42:19.640 goes down their chin with presence and they'll believe that they'll believe anything so we don't

00:42:23.100 blame them for that um but my point is that in the academic world they they try to come up with

00:42:31.140 more complex ways of putting it but this is really it this is it and for all the actual quote-unquote

00:42:39.040 trans people the quote-unquote trans identified people whether they're kids or adults this is the

00:42:43.820 way they think of it this is the language they use okay when they go to the doctor and ask for this

00:42:49.440 the drugs and ask for the double mastectomy ask for the sterilization drugs this is what they are

00:42:54.500 saying they're not using the language of academics okay uh they're not even talking about spectrums or

00:43:00.480 anything else they're going in and saying i feel like i'm a girl trapped in a boy body or i want to

00:43:05.340 be a girl that's what they are saying because that's what the whole thing is

00:43:09.140 and when they get the drugs they're getting the drugs from a doctor who is affirming that

00:43:16.680 that oh you want to be a girl so we will make you one 0.92

00:43:21.340 or yes you really are a girl trapped in a boy's body makes no sense at all but that's what they're

00:43:29.920 affirming so this is so this is trans what you just heard from the mouth of the of the the young 0.89

00:43:35.860 boy there is uh that's trans ideology that's what it is strip away all the you know complicated

00:43:43.240 language that you know it's all just meant to mask this incredibly ridiculous idea

00:43:50.200 and the second thing too the second takeaway there from there is always as you see the uh the woman 0.97

00:43:55.980 is trying to be a man and um it just doesn't you know it doesn't pass at all like you don't

00:44:02.740 you look like a lesbian woman that's anyone who sees you would say that's a lesbian that's 1.00

00:44:07.240 you're not even close you're not even in the ballpark of looking like a man and um you know

00:44:13.360 i think men who become become women uh it's you you can almost always tell it's very difficult for

00:44:18.420 them to fool you i think for women going the other way it's even more difficult um just for them to 1.00

00:44:23.540 present themselves as masculine it just doesn't it's it looks ridiculous it just does and it's not

00:44:29.000 convincing because you're not a man and uh like at the end of the day all you did was just shave your

00:44:35.120 hair and you made your voice a little deeper but there's a lot more to being a man than that

00:44:38.740 let's get to the comment section

00:45:52.880 five family says first of all depression is real and yes you really find yourself unable to do basic

00:45:58.060 things you should you know you should do you may even try and you literally feel physically pain so

00:46:02.440 you stop it sucks social media is amplifying this and is dangerous and this needs to be ended 0.89

00:46:06.780 um well i agree with your last statement that social media is making people depressed uh the

00:46:12.360 first part of it is not true um you're not unable to do those basic things you can do them and this

00:46:17.360 is actually an important it's an important point this should be the message to people who are saying

00:46:21.520 they're depressed this is actually the message this is the self-empowering message it's also true

00:46:25.840 you can you're laying around feeling i can't do this i can't get up i can't go to work i can't this

00:46:30.820 and that you absolutely can do it you can you just don't want to that's the obstacle it's like you

00:46:38.760 really don't want to do these things that you should at some level want to do um but you can

00:46:46.680 and we should get you to a point where you want to do them again like you should want to

00:46:51.740 get out of bed in the morning and start your day you should want to um and if you don't want to

00:46:59.060 that's a problem it's it that's unhealthy to not want to so we got to try to fix that but

00:47:06.260 even if you don't want to you still should because you can do things you don't want to do

00:47:12.480 anyone can and being depressed is not an excuse it's not an excuse to refuse to do things you don't

00:47:17.180 want to do that's weakness it is whether you're depressed or not refusing to do something that

00:47:23.980 you should do and not doing it because you don't want to is weakness um everyone has moments of

00:47:30.220 weakness that we're human beings no one is perfectly uh strong all the time but you got to power through

00:47:35.700 that and the thing is that the more as i said yesterday the more you do things you don't want to

00:47:41.540 do but you know you should uh you'll find that after a while you'll you'll start to want to do

00:47:47.000 them but sometimes you gotta you gotta force yourself into it um and the the fake it till you

00:47:54.620 make it is i think of all the cliches of all the rhyming cliches that exist that is maybe the wisest

00:48:01.700 one of all it's maybe the most or certainly it's one it's perhaps the most useful of all the rhyming

00:48:06.800 cliches you can name fake it till you make it um you don't feel like doing something you don't want

00:48:12.500 to do it just pretend that you do act like you do and eventually you'll your you'll your feelings

00:48:18.640 will trail behind and there'll be a little bit of a lag time and during that lag time it's more

00:48:22.780 difficult you know and it's like pulling teeth but sometimes you got to pull the teeth uh yours

00:48:30.420 untruly says matt i usually do agree with you but i got to tell you as a youth guidance counselor

00:48:34.080 depression really does put a mental block on not only cleaning your bedroom but any daily

00:48:37.860 activities such as hygiene organization tardiness focused memory makes you believe you're just

00:48:42.060 physically unable to don't remember to or don't care enough about yourself to do the simplest attacks

00:48:45.760 saying that there's something nothing physically stopping you from doing things because the

00:48:48.840 depression isn't the medical breakthrough you thought it was haha because unlike the other

00:48:52.740 diseases you mentioned depression isn't a physical disease it's a mental disease

00:48:55.520 but don't blame you for it because many people who haven't suffered through these mental

00:48:59.180 illnesses just simply can't ever understand it uh i it's all you know and there's i think there's

00:49:05.540 more comments along these lines where you don't understand you've never been through it you really

00:49:08.620 think you'd be hard-pressed to find any human being who doesn't understand depression um almost

00:49:14.740 every human has experienced being depressed for some length of time at some point in their life

00:49:19.160 um some people most people i think are very acquainted acquainted with it and i know what you're

00:49:24.940 going to say that's oh it's different it's different when it's clinical like no i think it's

00:49:29.680 it's it's part of the human condition i i just don't think that there's anyone you could possibly

00:49:33.580 find on the planet who when you tell them about the experience of being depressed would say oh yeah

00:49:39.200 i've never that's never happened to me now when you say something like have you had depression and

00:49:44.140 you phrase it that way you may find people on the planet who say no i never have i don't know

00:49:47.460 what that means in fact we went to we went to kenya uh and we talked to the the tribe there for

00:49:52.120 what is woman that's one of the questions i asked them it came up and they and it's a very

00:49:56.480 interesting answer they said no we don't have that but that's because when we frame it like

00:50:02.120 when we take this part of the human condition things people experience that are normal and you

00:50:08.640 you make it seem like an illness that you have that concept doesn't make sense to a lot of people

00:50:14.340 outside of the western bubble they just don't think of it that way but if you were to say to

00:50:18.080 these people uh have you ever been just really really really sad and down you didn't feel like

00:50:22.860 doing the things that you should want to do and uh have you been in despair that sort of thing

00:50:26.800 anyone anywhere will say yes i've experienced that yes um and this should not be pointing out that

00:50:36.720 everyone has experienced despair and that it's a it's a it's a part of the human condition

00:50:40.240 if you take this as minimizing your own experience with it like you're in some kind of competition

00:50:45.460 well that's your own fault it should be a comforting thought to realize that this is a

00:50:49.920 normal but you're not you're not a freak of nature you know because you experience this that it is a

00:50:55.340 normal part of the human condition doesn't mean it's not serious doesn't mean that it's not a

00:50:58.840 problem um but it is normal and that should be a comforting thought i think the fact that people

00:51:06.660 aren't comforted by it it just shows that there's this weird kind of like competitive nature

00:51:09.600 where people suffer and they need to feel like no i'm suffering in a way you can you don't

00:51:13.320 understand this this is way worse than you ever have um that attitude itself is a problem

00:51:18.820 um and on the same note here this is from lee says matt gets a lot of things right about uh

00:51:27.200 gets a lot of things right about okay i think matt gets a lot of things right including things about

00:51:31.140 adhd because there's a few things wrong about it too i don't think matt has ever met a six-year-old

00:51:35.260 with adhd maybe he has i could be wrong but i doubt it yeah once again uh well if you don't agree

00:51:40.520 with me all if this is the this is the general attitude if i don't agree with the way people

00:51:46.420 talk about and categorize things like adhd and depression anxiety it can only be because i have

00:51:51.580 no familiarity with them at all the possibility that maybe i am familiar and i just have a different

00:51:56.980 opinion about it and i see it differently and i have a different perspective it's like unthinkable

00:52:02.260 to people they can't even imagine that anyone could have could possibly have a different perspective

00:52:07.140 on these things but well you might not be able to imagine it but you should just like al sharpton

00:52:12.720 can't imagine thomas jefferson overthrowing a government uh you you need to imagine it because

00:52:17.200 actually i'm very familiar i have six kids okay i have four boys you really think i've never i i am

00:52:23.500 totally flabbergasted by the idea of having kids who can't still can't pay attention it's very hard to

00:52:29.500 teach them things you think i haven't experienced that i got news for you lee i know more about it than

00:52:34.440 you do okay i know more about it than most people actually okay and in in this world it's relatively

00:52:40.860 rare to find people with six kids or more so i'm we're in a little bit of rare company here so i i know

00:52:46.440 about it i do um and i've had now uh i have four boys i have two boys that have gone through the age of

00:52:56.340 six both of them could easily be diagnosed with adhd if i wanted to all right we could go to the

00:53:04.620 doctor we can get them on ritalin tomorrow if we wanted to it would not be a problem um check look

00:53:10.700 at all the symptoms check check check check right down right down the the list but i will not do that

00:53:16.280 i will not do it all of our doctors know that all it just anyone around me knows that's a non-starter

00:53:23.860 we are not putting these kids on drugs it's not going to happen period i don't believe in it

00:53:29.260 um and i believe that uh that for a child to have a lot of energy and to have trouble focusing and to

00:53:36.560 be distracted especially when even our kids you know we don't have our kids on smartphones we we

00:53:40.900 limit the amount of digital uh time they spend with screens and stuff like that but still even then

00:53:45.760 they they live in a culture just ripe with distraction all the time and i think to treat them like

00:53:52.360 they're sick because of it is just wrong and i will not do it and um if that means that things

00:54:01.680 become more difficult and be kind of annoying sometimes to have boys that are bouncing off the

00:54:05.100 walls and all that and it's it could be more difficult to teach them concepts and we got to

00:54:09.240 spend more time with them and all you know it makes our life more difficult well then so be it

00:54:12.780 um that's my perspective despite the lackluster economy the daily wire is thriving not only that we

00:54:19.980 are hiring we're currently looking for a production assistant to join our fast growing production

00:54:50.600 dailywire.com slash careers at dailywire.com slash careers today now let's get to our daily cancellation

00:54:56.700 the former porn star maya khalifa has uh is it me or maya let's go yeah let's go with maya

00:55:08.620 the former porn star maya khalifa has gone viral this week with some marriage advice that she offered to 0.88

00:55:13.440 her instagram followers now you wouldn't necessarily expect great marriage advice from somebody like

00:55:18.580 this uh the world of cyber prostitutes is not revered for its marital wisdom or any other kind 0.94

00:55:23.700 of wisdom so you're probably thinking what worthwhile advice could this former porn star possibly have to

00:55:29.260 offer well i can say that life is full of surprises in general i mean but not in this case the advice is

00:55:36.220 god-awful just like you'd expect here it is oh we're comparing stats baby girl doesn't know that i am tom

00:55:42.400 brady at this game married at 18 divorced at 21 second marriage married at 25 divorced at 28 third

00:55:50.900 engagement engaged at 29 ended it at 30 but i kept the ring i'm still keeping tom brady on his toes

00:55:59.100 we should not be afraid to leave these men we are not stuck with these people marriage is not

00:56:08.260 a sanctimonious thing it is it is paperwork it's something it's it's it's a commitment you make to

00:56:15.240 someone but if you feel like you're not getting anything from that commitment and you're trying

00:56:21.860 you gotta go you gotta go you have to go i know it's difficult to fill out paperwork and to make

00:56:29.340 appointments and to do all of these things but this is your life do you want to be stuck with someone

00:56:34.840 period this is what happens when women try to make sports analogies uh maya apparently doesn't 1.00

00:56:46.020 understand that tom brady has seven super bowl rings because he was victorious in seven super

00:56:51.680 bowls he won a lot that's why he has the rings but maya is a loser a failure she keeps failing in 1.00

00:56:58.660 marriage um and which makes her if anything the anti tom brady of the marriage game in fact even

00:57:04.960 that gives her too much credit you know because i mean tom brady that that would be like tom brady

00:57:10.700 did make it to it's like if he if he lost a bunch of super bowls or something but no she's she's more 0.66

00:57:15.080 of a of an nfl washout a draft bust she's the uh the the jamarcus russell of marriage she's the

00:57:21.620 johnny manzel of matrimony you get the idea this only goes to show why i have pertence put certain

00:57:28.740 parameters in place for anyone who wants to dispense any marriage tips at all now according

00:57:33.220 to my rules which don't have the force of law behind them but should you are not allowed to give

00:57:37.840 any advice on this topic unless you have been married for at least 10 years and you have at least

00:57:42.280 one kid from there the longer you've been in it and the more kids you have the more seriously your

00:57:48.520 advice can be taken here's one area where trust the experts really does apply except that the experts

00:57:54.160 don't have to have any academic credentials their resumes don't matter all that matters

00:57:58.040 is that they've actually done the thing and they've experienced the challenges of marriage and family

00:58:03.500 life and they've learned how to navigate them successfully taking advice from maya khalifa would

00:58:08.240 be like uh having a driving instructor who's been behind the wheel three times and totaled the car

00:58:13.140 all three times obviously that would be a bad idea now there's probably not much point in responding

00:58:19.580 point by point to the horrible guidance that maya is offering uh to women here she she's correct 1.00

00:58:25.360 about one thing which is that marriage is not a sanctimonious thing but she's only correct because

00:58:31.520 she's semi-literate so this was accidental marriage is on the other hand a sacred thing it's a covenant

00:58:37.160 saying it's just paperwork is like saying that the home you live in is just paperwork it doesn't make

00:58:44.500 any sense you know yes you sign some paperwork as part of the process of buying a home for example

00:58:50.160 uh but doesn't mean that the home itself is not paperwork and you sign paperwork as part of the

00:58:54.540 process of legally binding yourself to your spouse in marriage but the marriage itself is not a piece of

00:59:00.120 paper my kids all got birth certificates when they were born but my kids are not birth certificates

00:59:06.900 okay marriage is the same way it is a living breathing vibrant thing a union a commitment yes

00:59:13.220 but if as maya says that commitment is null and void the moment you feel that you aren't getting

00:59:19.940 anything out of it then there's no commitment this is a mercenary arrangement then okay it's like um

00:59:27.040 it's like if you if you built a roof that collapsed under the weight of a slight drizzle

00:59:30.860 the whole point of the roof is to shelter you from the elements if it can't withstand any of the

00:59:36.160 elements then the roof was a sham to begin with it may as well have not existed most likely if you

00:59:42.780 feel that you aren't getting anything out of your marriage especially if you feel this way and you

00:59:46.400 just got married like a week ago or however long it was in maya's case it's a very good indication

00:59:50.740 that you're looking for the wrong things you're expecting the wrong things from it it's like claiming

00:59:57.880 that your oven is broken because it won't wash your dishes that's not what an oven is designed to do

01:00:02.620 the oven isn't broken your expectations for the oven are simply insane for marriage you cannot

01:00:09.840 expect as maya and so many women like her expect it'll be some kind of machine that exists to 1.00

01:00:15.640 constantly make you personally happy all the time and make your life easier and more fun all the time

01:00:21.380 and keep you entertained and enraptured at all times this is what the maya khalifas of the world

01:00:26.340 expect the marriage it is it is indeed what they expect of everything and everyone in life

01:00:30.600 and when they don't get it when the thing does not provide them immediate and superficial happiness

01:00:36.540 on a silver platter whenever they ring the bell then they declare that the thing must be defective

01:00:41.700 and they are morally justified in smashing it to pieces no matter who is hurt in the process

01:00:45.840 again these narcissists approach all of life this way so it's no surprise that they bring this same

01:00:51.640 sense of entitlement into their marriages and it's even less surprised that this entitlement has the

01:00:56.180 same effect on their marriages that it does on all other aspects and areas of their life by making

01:01:00.900 them and everyone around them miserable and ensuring that they will fail at everything that they

01:01:06.020 half-heartedly attempt to do marriage is supposed to be a deep source of fulfillment and purpose and joy

01:01:12.840 but like any other worthwhile thing it requires work and sacrifice you have to you have to dig deep into

01:01:19.040 the earth to find diamonds there's no use complaining they don't fall out of the sky besides if they did we

01:01:23.700 all be killed anyway the point is that the good and beautiful things in life require work and it's

01:01:29.940 just as simple as that you have to dig for them in the context of marriage the digging doesn't need to

01:01:34.840 be back-breaking or terribly strenuous it's not like marriage is constant drudgery with moments of

01:01:39.800 happiness thrown in that's not the point most of the work is just like living your everyday life

01:01:43.840 meeting the normal types of challenges that come you know that come your way the kinds of challenges

01:01:49.280 that you would have to face if you were alone only now you have somebody by your side

01:01:52.920 so in many cases life challenges can be quite a bit easier when you're married for this reason

01:01:57.900 but you cannot expect that the other person lives simply to make you happy every second of the day

01:02:04.320 as if they have no life or identity of their own and as if the marriage is your your play thing which

01:02:09.820 exists for your personal entertainment it is virtually guaranteed that this is the attitude a person

01:02:16.540 brought into marriage if they if they get a divorce a year later two years later

01:02:20.460 like we know this is someone who didn't want a spouse she wanted a video game character that she 1.00

01:02:27.620 could control for her amusement now this is all pretty probably pretty obvious newsflash if you're

01:02:34.520 shallow shallow and selfish there's a good chance your marriage won't succeed maybe not breaking news for

01:02:40.140 most people but i think the real thing to be learned from maya's video if anything at all can be learned

01:02:44.920 from it is that this is why so many young men are terrified to get married they have a deep and

01:02:51.600 certainly not entirely unjustified fear that they'll end up in a marriage with a woman like 0.98

01:02:55.920 maya khalifa the young man who's afraid to of marriage is afraid of it because he doesn't want

01:03:01.840 to give his heart and his life to a woman who then treats this sacred union like a piece of paper that

01:03:06.220 she can throw in the shredder the moment that she feels a little bit bored given that the majority of

01:03:11.360 divorces are initiated by women and that very often their reasons are intensely selfish like this 0.99

01:03:15.880 this fear is understandable maya khalifa is obviously a terrible person an awful woman a 1.00

01:03:22.560 sociopath who professes her love to a man only to casually stab him in the back and treat their

01:03:27.480 vows like a joke and she is far from the only woman of this type lurking out there and this is a 0.99

01:03:35.020 source of great anxiety for young men who otherwise long to become husbands and fathers

01:03:39.980 frankly it should be a source of of worry for them but here's the good news here's the good news

01:03:44.880 these types of women is if you're a man if you're a young man you gotta you gotta just trust me on this 1.00

01:03:50.280 these types of women are easy to spot okay you can see the maya khalifas of the world from a mile away 1.00

01:03:57.280 and and i don't just mean because she's a porn star i mean a a shallow selfish woman who is concerned 1.00

01:04:03.740 for no one's happiness but her own is very obvious most of the time you should be able to pick up on

01:04:09.020 this in one conversation let alone a date if you get a whole date with someone and you're talking

01:04:14.360 to them for you know a couple hours you should be able to tell all this real quickly it is very

01:04:21.500 unlikely that an awful self-centered bimbo narcissist will be able to present herself as some kind of 1.00

01:04:27.180 high character woman much less will she be able to keep up the act through the entire process of 1.00

01:04:32.660 dating and engagement now there are a few masters of disguise out there but most of them wear their

01:04:38.120 awfulness on their sleeve because it's the only way they know how to be and they also aren't aware

01:04:43.500 of how awful they are so they don't know that they should hide it so then how do men end up with with

01:04:49.980 these kinds of women how did three different men propose to maya khalifa well that's no mystery either

01:04:56.360 they become enamored with other aspects of the woman they allow those other aspects to overshadow

01:05:02.520 the glaring character defects that they definitely do see and they go out and they buy the ring against

01:05:08.080 their better judgment so use better judgment there are plenty of good women in the world just as there 1.00

01:05:14.520 are plenty of good men if you see a maya khalifa walking around out there just keep going keep 0.99

01:05:20.040 searching she's not worth the trouble not even close and that is why maya khalifa and frankly the men who

01:05:26.720 were dumb enough to propose to her are all today canceled and that'll do it for the show today and

01:05:32.380 this week have a great weekend talk to you on monday godspeed
