The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1307 - Democrats Courageously Defend The Rights Of Illegal Immigrant Drunk Drivers

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, Democrats in Congress have come to the defense of illegal

00:00:03.740 immigrants who drive drunk. They insist that illegals have the God-given right to get DUIs 1.00

00:00:08.200 and still stay in this country, apparently. Also, the school puts a tampon dispenser in

00:00:12.300 the boys' restroom. It takes the kids 20 minutes to tear it down, which is way too long.

00:00:16.160 Nikki Haley makes the most bizarre mistake I've ever seen from a presidential candidate.

00:00:19.140 Richard Dawkins finally speaks out in defense of biological reality. And women on TikTok keep 1.00

00:00:23.500 coming up with different tests for their husbands and boyfriends. We'll take a look at these tests 0.74

00:00:27.160 and what you can really learn from them. All of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:02:02.260 There were not many moments in the 2020 presidential campaign when Joe Biden appeared in public and

00:02:07.280 answered questions on the fly without any notes to guide him. To the extent Biden did sit for

00:02:12.340 interviews, he only talked with friendly outlets that went out of their way to help him answer their

00:02:16.380 questions. But despite that assistance, sometimes things still went very wrong. And one of the more

00:02:21.640 notable debacles came in January of 2020, when Biden participated in an election forum at Vice.

00:02:28.680 Biden was asked how he would change the culture at ICE or Immigration's Custom Enforcement.

00:02:33.920 His answer involved the usual angry yelling and finger pointing, but the substance of what Biden said

00:02:38.580 was so bizarre that it actually left the Vice interviewers speechless. Let's watch that again.

00:02:44.920 What exact changes would you bring to ICE as an agency?

00:02:47.360 I would hold ICE agents accountable if, in fact, they stepped over my executive orders, which is no arrest

00:02:54.400 of anyone outside of their school. Look at that. You know, one of the things that's happening is

00:03:00.080 particularly for Latino and Hispanic kids is the incredible pressure on them in terms of their

00:03:08.020 their their their sense of security. They go off to school wondering whether when mom comes and picks

00:03:13.100 them up. Is she not going to be there because an ICE agent was there to arrest her or they take she 0.99

00:03:17.740 takes them to the doctor that she's going to not be there because she is, quote, undocumented and

00:03:23.020 nice is going to pick them up. So how do you change the culture? You change the culture by saying you're

00:03:27.020 going to get fired. You're fired if, in fact, you do that. You only arrest for the purpose of dealing

00:03:33.920 with a felony that's committed. And I don't count drunken driving as a felony.

00:03:42.900 Now, even for Vice, that was a little much. Biden pledged to fire any ICE officer who arrested an

00:03:48.980 illegal immigrant for committing a federal misdemeanor, even though that is in the job 1.00

00:03:53.140 description of ICE officers. Enforcing the law is what they are supposed to be doing. And Biden

00:03:58.040 just publicly threatened to terminate anyone who did the job that they signed up to do.

00:04:04.320 And Joe Biden declared that drunk driving is a misdemeanor, even though in many cases it's

00:04:08.100 actually a felony. So it's an insane series of statements for any presidential candidate to make.

00:04:13.440 But it was especially odd coming from Biden, who claimed for many years that his wife and daughter

00:04:17.800 were killed by a drunk driver, even though in typical Biden fashion, the story was a lie. But

00:04:21.940 completely unprompted, in any event, Biden gave the green lights for illegal aliens to drink and drive

00:04:28.800 in the United States without any fear of deportation or even arrest. So he affirmed the right of non-citizens 0.99

00:04:36.680 to drive drunk in the United States. Now, if you wanted to terrorize as many American citizens as

00:04:44.860 possible and ensure that thousands more people die in drunk driving accidents every year, this is exactly

00:04:50.700 the kind of policy you would adopt. You would provide incentives for degenerate criminals living

00:04:55.680 in this country to commit even more crimes by removing any fear in their minds that they might

00:05:01.120 get deported if they disobey. Four years ago, it was easy to try and dismiss Biden's remarks as a gaffe

00:05:06.820 or a misstatement. At the time, that's exactly what many on the left did, but it was not a misstatement

00:05:11.400 at all. It was instead a de facto part of the Democratic Party platform that, indeed, illegal aliens should be 0.64

00:05:18.520 able to drive drunk as much as they want without having to worry about the consequences. That is the

00:05:23.540 platform that Biden ran on. Let the illegals get drunk and kill your family in fiery car wrecks on 0.99

00:05:29.100 the highway. That was basically the campaign motto, and it's what most of his party's delegation in

00:05:33.960 Congress believes in. And that is why yesterday, 150 Democrats in the House of Representatives voted no

00:05:41.620 on a bill that would allow for the automatic deportation of illegal immigrants who drink and drive,

00:05:46.420 whether it's a felony or a misdemeanor. The bill also would make it harder for non-citizens convicted

00:05:51.160 of DUI to enter this country in the first place. Again, the overwhelming majority of Democrats tried

00:05:55.980 to block this bill. So they have no problem with foreign nationals entering into this country and

00:06:02.320 then committing a dangerous crime, one that could easily get American citizens killed. Unfortunately,

00:06:07.360 the bill passed by a 274 to 150 vote margin with 59 Democrats joining the Republicans, but it was far

00:06:14.480 closer than it should have been. And there should have obviously not been a single person voting

00:06:20.600 against it. Of course, the only real issue with the bill, if there is an issue with it, is that we

00:06:25.860 should automatically deport all illegals anyway, sober or not. But since that's not happening, this 0.99

00:06:31.640 seems like a logical place to start, especially with all of the many cases of illegals killing Americans 1.00

00:06:36.660 by driving drunk. It happens all the time. That includes the case of Jose Menjivar, who just killed two

00:06:42.160 American citizens after racking up more than a decade's worth of probation violations and DUIs.

00:06:47.240 And that record didn't stop Jose from getting in his Toyota Tundra while drunk and doing it all

00:06:53.960 over again last month. And here's how that turned out. Watch.

00:06:58.120 Driver accused of killing a mother and son near Broomfield High School has a long history of

00:07:02.520 drinking and driving. Our Sean Boyd has been digging into this case. She is live right now. So Sean,

00:07:07.640 you have learned that the suspect went before a judge in Boulder just days before this crash.

00:07:14.160 And Alan, he pled guilty to drunk driving on two separate occasions, on top of three prior drinking

00:07:21.920 and driving related convictions, multiple probation violations and failing to appear in court repeatedly.

00:07:29.080 Despite all that, he walked out of here on December 8th and four days later, got behind the wheel while

00:07:36.800 drunk, according to investigators, and killed a Broomfield mother and her son.

00:07:42.960 Court records show Jose Menjivar Alice has a history of drunk driving dating back to 2007.

00:07:50.160 He has four convictions in Boulder County alone. Again and again, he's been put on probation. And again and

00:07:56.920 again, he's violated it, continuing to drink and drive until his next arrest. In each case,

00:08:03.880 he's been released on no or low bond, failed to reappear for his hearing, and a warrant has been issued for

00:08:09.980 his arrest. That may explain why he didn't face sentencing for two DUI cases from 2016 and 2019

00:08:17.600 until this month. He was allowed to plead both down to lesser charges of driving while ability impaired,

00:08:24.480 despite having three prior drinking and driving related convictions. A Boulder County judge

00:08:30.820 sentenced him to probation, community service and work release. He left the courthouse and four days

00:08:37.580 later, investigators say he got drunk, got behind the wheel and drove his truck into a car outside of

00:08:44.500 Broomfield High School, killing Melissa Powell and her 16 year old son.

00:08:49.080 What's not mentioned in that report, because local news stations don't like to talk about

00:08:53.780 illegal immigration, is that this man has a record of four deportations. He was kicked out of this country

00:08:59.300 in June 2009, June 2013, November 2014 and January 2015. But the border is completely open, so he just

00:09:07.060 kept coming back. And after a while, the federal government just stopped deporting him, even though they had

00:09:11.460 ample opportunity to do so. He was arrested multiple times in this country after his last deportation,

00:09:17.500 in particular for DOIs on December 7, 2016 and May 7, 2019. None of that mattered to the DOJ or to the

00:09:24.880 left-wing judges in Colorado, so here we are. Prosecutors wanted to send him to prison for a year, but the

00:09:29.860 judge, whose name is Zach Malkinson, again released him. And now as a direct result of that decision and

00:09:37.420 all the decisions before it, two people are dead as a result. And here's the kicker. All he has to do

00:09:43.860 is come up with $10,000 out of his $100,000 bond, and he can get out. And he can get drunk and kill

00:09:49.600 some more American citizens. This is the kind of degeneracy that Democrats want in this country.

00:09:55.600 They just voted to make it harder to deport illegal aliens just like this killer. And there are a lot 0.98

00:10:02.000 of killers like him. In 2021, there was the case of Ernesto Lopez Morales, a Guatemalan who was illegally

00:10:07.960 living in Florida. Ernesto was driving a Suburban with no lights on when he plowed into another vehicle,

00:10:12.980 pushing it 600 feet off the road and killing a five-year-old girl inside. And then he fled the

00:10:17.300 scene. Now, what happened to Ernesto? He was charged with manslaughter, given a $22,500 bond,

00:10:25.820 which he could post with just a couple thousand dollars. He was not immediately removed from this

00:10:31.700 country or even forced to stay behind bars after killing a five-year-old. Then there was the case

00:10:36.280 of the illegal alien who killed NFL linebacker Edwin Jackson and also his rideshare driver around 4 a.m.

00:10:42.340 on a Sunday morning. Jackson became sick. So the driver pulled over to the shoulder of the

00:10:46.380 interstate in Indianapolis. Both men got out of the car. And that's when another intoxicated

00:10:50.940 Guatemala national named Manuel Arego Savala drove his Ford F-150 into the emergency lane and killed

00:10:57.960 Jackson and his driver. Now, this incident never should have happened because Manuel shouldn't have

00:11:03.580 been in the United States in the first place. Manuel had a previous DUI conviction and two

00:11:08.280 deportations, one in 2007, another in 2009. In other words, he's exactly the kind of person

00:11:14.200 that those 150 Democrats want to keep in this country. There are many more examples along these

00:11:20.820 lines. There's the case of Alephio Augustine, who had two convictions for driving under the influence,

00:11:25.800 one in September 2019, another in January 2020. He got deported because of the latter arrests,

00:11:32.020 but of course had no problem getting back into the country, where on one Sunday night late last year,

00:11:37.020 he got drunk and nearly killed a man with his Chevy Malibu. Then there's the reported illegal alien 0.99

00:11:42.360 Juan Felix Avendano, who, according to Wisconsin Now, was driving 106 miles per hour in a 40 mile

00:11:51.060 per hour zone when he slammed into the back of a vehicle carrying Jan and George Shimming,

00:11:56.260 76 and 78 years old, and their son, Craig Shimming, 52, while the family was on the way to church.

00:12:01.680 And Shimming later died just weeks earlier, also Wisconsin, an illegal alien named Ernest 1.00

00:12:06.920 Ernest Regalado killed a 20-year-old nurse in a DUI wreck. And yeah, we could go on all day

00:12:14.080 through the list of illegal aliens who have killed American citizens and their prior rap sheets.

00:12:19.580 Suffice it to say, the fact that we're not enforcing immigration law, even against DUI offenders,

00:12:24.260 is clearly getting people killed. These are incidents that should fill us with absolute rage and disgust.

00:12:30.640 Now, of course, it's an outrage and a tragedy anytime somebody is killed by a drunk driver,

00:12:34.840 but the idea that we're allowing the dregs of humanity from other countries to come here illegally 0.94

00:12:41.080 and kill good, productive, law-abiding citizens of our community, it's just unconscionable.

00:12:48.980 So what then is the argument against this bill? What's the argument against deporting illegal aliens 0.97

00:12:57.340 who have been convicted of DUIs? Here's Representative Pramila Jayapal to try to explain

00:13:03.620 what that argument is. Let's listen. Once again, the majority is wasting our time

00:13:09.480 by putting forward a piece of legislation that has zero chance of becoming law and that is

00:13:14.500 extraordinarily broad. No one condones driving under the influence. We should do everything we can

00:13:21.180 to prevent people from getting behind the wheel while intoxicated.

00:13:25.180 But this bill, designed to scapegoat and denigrate immigrants,

00:13:29.500 will not solve the serious problem of DUIs.

00:13:33.620 Public safety threats, including those who have been convicted of serious DUI offenses,

00:13:37.920 are already inadmissible and removable

00:13:41.280 under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and this bill would not change

00:13:45.780 or enhance that. Under the INA, a conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude where the punishment

00:13:53.380 can be for a year or longer makes an individual deportable. Courts have ruled over and over again

00:14:00.380 that serious DUI offenses that put others at risk are CIMTs and make the perpetrators deportable.

00:14:08.560 But this bill isn't about serious offenses, Mr. Speaker. Far from it.

00:14:12.940 The bill says that a conviction for a single DUI offense, misdemeanor, or felony makes you instantly deportable

00:14:23.540 and an admission to such an offense makes you instantly inadmissible. No questions asked.

00:14:31.000 I can understand, maybe, the appeal of something that sounds like a zero-tolerance policy.

00:14:36.040 But let me tell you, Mr. Speaker, if we had that kind of policy here in the House of Representatives,

00:14:40.660 there would be several members that would not be members of this chamber.

00:14:45.640 So the last part there is a complete non-sequitur, of course.

00:14:48.580 Whether lawmakers have driven drunk is irrelevant, because we're talking about a bill that applies

00:14:52.460 to illegal aliens, people who have already violated the law and who have no legal right 0.51

00:14:57.160 to be in this country, and then commit another crime on top of that.

00:15:00.280 So it's not clear why she's suggesting that some members of Congress would be affected

00:15:04.660 by this legislation in any way, unless she's admitting something about the immigration status

00:15:10.240 of one of her colleagues, which isn't that hard to imagine, actually.

00:15:14.380 And I will say that if there are any illegal alien congressmen or women, I absolutely am 1.00

00:15:19.920 in favor of deporting them immediately.

00:15:23.060 And, you know, no need to wait for them to drive drunk.

00:15:26.100 So that should solve that.

00:15:27.080 In fact, actually, I'm in favor of deporting 95% of Congress, even if they're citizens.

00:15:31.540 So we could talk about that.

00:15:32.560 That's a separate piece of legislation we could work on.

00:15:35.220 But the crux of Jayapal's argument is that she doesn't condone DUI, and she thinks that

00:15:41.760 we should do everything we can to prevent people from driving while intoxicated.

00:15:46.360 But at the same time, she opposes the bill because it's broad, and it quotes scapegoats

00:15:51.020 and denigrates immigrants.

00:15:53.100 Specifically, Jayapal complains that this bill doesn't focus only on serious offenses and

00:15:57.180 instead would make an immigrant instantly deportable for any DUI offense at all. 0.93

00:16:01.360 Now, reasonable people see that part of this bill as a feature, not a bug.

00:16:07.880 The only difference between a serious DUI and one that Jayapal and apparently Biden don't

00:16:14.000 deem serious is that nobody was hurt or killed by the non-serious one.

00:16:18.940 But that's only a matter of luck.

00:16:21.160 The reason why it's bad to get behind the wheel when you're drunk is that you could kill

00:16:24.440 someone or yourself or multiple people, even if in most cases it doesn't end that way.

00:16:29.460 Everybody who commits a DUI is putting lives at risk, whether they actually kill somebody

00:16:34.240 or not.

00:16:35.400 And an illegal immigrant should be given zero latitude to put American lives at risk at 1.00

00:16:40.160 all, under any circumstance and to any degree.

00:16:44.200 So these are not exactly strong arguments so far, but she keeps going, so let's keep listening.

00:16:48.520 Moreover, by including every single type of DUI offense, this bill would make someone deportable

00:16:57.440 for not driving under the influence.

00:17:01.280 That's because states have a wide variety of opinions on what is a DUI.

00:17:06.840 For example, Arizona's DUI statute allows people to be charged with a DUI if they are intoxicated

00:17:14.680 and have, quote, physical control of their vehicle.

00:17:18.860 The Ninth Circuit found that the breadth of this statute means that, and I'm quoting here,

00:17:24.100 one may be convicted under it for sitting in one's own car, in one's own driveway,

00:17:31.060 with the key in the ignition and a bottle of beer in one's hand, end quote.

00:17:37.360 Because of this, the Ninth Circuit determined that a conviction under this statute was insufficient

00:17:42.740 to count as a deportable offense.

00:17:45.620 As the court put it, drunken driving is despicable.

00:17:49.260 Having physical control of a car while drinking is not.

00:17:53.280 Their words, not mine.

00:17:54.680 As many places across the country experienced cold spells in the last week or so,

00:17:59.900 there are states that would allow prosecution of someone simply if they were sitting in their car

00:18:05.100 with the heat on while inebriated, even if it was in their own driveway.

00:18:12.320 Nothing about that made any, I'm starting to think that maybe she herself was drunk

00:18:15.840 while delivering that speech, so maybe she's a little bit biased.

00:18:19.740 Even her, she emphasizes the law.

00:18:22.440 She says, you would go to jail for sitting in your own car?

00:18:27.120 Well, how is, yeah, like as opposed to sitting in someone, yes, yes,

00:18:30.980 if you're sitting in your own car and you're drunk, then that's a DUI.

00:18:35.840 Is that supposed to be shocking?

00:18:38.280 So here she spends a long time complaining that some states consider it a DUI

00:18:42.260 if you're sitting in a parked car, in your own car, your own car,

00:18:46.300 with a key in the ignition, drinking alcohol but not driving.

00:18:49.160 And Jayapal apparently considers it absurd to criminalize that kind of behavior

00:18:52.980 because the most liberal appellate court in the country says so.

00:18:57.280 She also seems to think that the cold temperature might necessitate somebody sitting in the car 0.54

00:19:02.740 while they drink a beer.

00:19:03.680 I'm not sure I follow that logic.

00:19:05.820 How does that excuse work?

00:19:06.840 Well, sorry, officer, I'm just sitting here chugging this beer in my car with the key in the ignition

00:19:10.100 because it's cold outside.

00:19:13.980 So it's an interesting argument because, as we saw, Jayapal herself just said

00:19:18.680 that we should do everything we can to prevent people from driving drunk.

00:19:24.440 But apparently doing everything we can to prevent people from driving drunk

00:19:27.020 does not include arresting them before they start driving.

00:19:31.040 So we've got to wait for the intoxicated person to actually start driving

00:19:34.580 the 4,000-pound hunk of metal down the road and through a neighborhood

00:19:38.260 before we arrest them, according to this logic.

00:19:41.820 But it seems to me that there couldn't possibly be any valid reason

00:19:44.920 for a person to sit in the driver's seat with the key in the ignition while inebriated.

00:19:51.100 Like, it's a very safe assumption that their intention is to drive.

00:19:54.960 And we often arrest people for attempting to do things

00:19:58.620 even if they have not done the thing yet.

00:20:01.160 Take attempted murder, for example.

00:20:03.480 If you take overt steps towards killing someone, but you don't,

00:20:08.620 you still go to prison for a very long time.

00:20:10.860 And by the same token, if you take overt steps towards drunk driving,

00:20:14.820 like getting drunk and then getting in a car and putting a key in the ignition,

00:20:18.120 then you should go to prison.

00:20:19.640 And if you're an illegal alien, you should be deported. 1.00

00:20:21.700 But really, this is a moot point, because there's a very simple answer

00:20:25.580 to the question of how much leeway should we give illegal immigrants

00:20:29.120 who are already committing a crime just by being in this country in the first place. 0.90

00:20:32.020 The answer is they deserve no leeway and no leniency whatsoever,

00:20:36.040 whether they're driving drunk or not.

00:20:37.740 They should all be deported if they're in this country, 1.00

00:20:40.160 and they should be barred from entering if they're not.

00:20:43.740 Right now, though, a lot of Republicans seem to disagree with that.

00:20:46.080 They're close to agreeing to a border deal with the Biden administration

00:20:48.580 that would still permit thousands of illegals to enter this country every day.

00:20:53.600 And here's their reasoning behind that.

00:20:56.700 The height of stupidity is having a strong opinion on something you know nothing about.

00:21:00.380 I'm extremely disappointed in the very strange maneuvering

00:21:03.460 by many on the right to torpedo a potential border reform bill.

00:21:09.320 If we have a bill that, on net, significantly decreases illegal immigration,

00:21:14.240 and we sabotage that. That is inconsistent with what we told our voters we would do.

00:21:19.420 People will make up whatever reasons they want to.

00:21:22.300 There's a number of them, I'm sure.

00:21:24.260 But it would be a pretty unacceptable dereliction of your duty.

00:21:28.920 Now, this compromise position will still allow 5,000 illegal immigrants 0.91

00:21:33.100 to enter this country every day.

00:21:34.860 That's nearly 2 million illegals every single year.

00:21:38.820 That's not a compromise.

00:21:40.280 It will just encourage more illegal immigrants to come here 1.00

00:21:43.560 in the hopes that they'll be allowed in.

00:21:45.200 It's not going to reduce illegal migration whatsoever.

00:21:49.160 But even if it did, a reduction isn't enough, is not enough.

00:21:53.060 A simple reduction.

00:21:54.020 We now have illegal aliens who are so emboldened 1.00

00:21:57.000 that they're attacking police officers

00:21:58.880 and then immediately getting out of jail while flipping the bird to the camera.

00:22:02.440 It just happened in New York the other day, as you might have seen.

00:22:05.360 Anyone telling you to try to compromise on this

00:22:08.080 doesn't want you to realize that we've been trying to compromise for several decades now.

00:22:14.140 And with every American citizen who's killed by an illegal migrant 1.00

00:22:17.620 or beaten in Times Square,

00:22:20.340 it becomes abundantly clear that the time for compromise is long over.

00:22:26.360 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:23:27.820 Okay, I'm not saying that this is the most important story of the day,

00:23:30.280 but I'm going to start with it because it is the most baffling.

00:23:32.940 It's the most baffling.

00:23:33.800 I am baffled by it.

00:23:34.800 They should do an unsolved mysteries on this.

00:23:37.840 That's how mysterious it is.

00:23:39.020 So Nikki Haley, who is still pretending to run for president, 1.00

00:23:42.540 tweeted last night a couple of messages she received from supporters.

00:23:45.760 And so far, so good.

00:23:48.280 I mean, pretty normal.

00:23:49.780 I don't really see the point in showing everybody nice things that two random people said to you

00:23:55.200 as if that's going to move the needle, as if anyone's going to see that and go,

00:23:58.960 you know, I didn't like Nikki Haley, but these random people are right.

00:24:01.700 Actually, I think I'll vote for her for president. 0.88

00:24:04.000 But it's still a pretty standard operating procedure until you get into the details.

00:24:10.640 So let's look at the tweet.

00:24:12.880 First of all, let's pull up the caption first of the tweet.

00:24:18.500 Americans want a choice in this election, not a rerun.

00:24:21.540 I'm overwhelmed by all of the kind words.

00:24:24.160 We'll keep working hard to make you proud, she says.

00:24:27.260 And then here are the screenshots of the two messages.

00:24:31.820 Well, one's an email and one is a letter, a snail mail letter that was sent to her.

00:24:36.760 So here's the letter.

00:24:38.200 I want to encourage Nikki Haley to keep pressing on.

00:24:40.240 We need a competent and committed leader to stay the course in the bid for the presidency.

00:24:44.080 I'm an independent.

00:24:45.100 I voted for the best candidate every election cycle.

00:24:47.960 And this year it's Nikki.

00:24:50.140 Signed, Mary A.

00:24:52.040 And then the next one says, please do not give up your fight.

00:24:56.400 In a world that's become crazy with strife, we need a level-headed conservative leader to navigate us through the insanity.

00:25:02.340 No one is more capable than you are to right the ship and heal this great nation.

00:25:06.880 We need you, Nikki.

00:25:08.020 This country needs you.

00:25:09.120 Our allies and the beautiful people of this world need you.

00:25:12.320 I don't want you to give up, and I guarantee you there are millions more out there who feel exactly as I do.

00:25:17.700 Okay.

00:25:19.320 So the content-wise, content is a pretty standard issue.

00:25:23.740 The problem is the presentation.

00:25:26.220 And by the presentation, you can tell that these are clearly 100% fake.

00:25:30.940 So Nikki's team made these things up and wrote them and posted them.

00:25:37.420 And so that's what they decided.

00:25:40.500 They're making up fake fan mail for Nikki Haley and then posting it.

00:25:44.720 And how do we know?

00:25:45.200 Well, first of all, the message on lined paper.

00:25:48.880 Can we go back to the message that's on lined paper?

00:25:52.560 We know this message on lined paper is not real because that's a font.

00:25:59.040 And that's not real lined paper.

00:26:02.260 Because, like, number one, if somebody sent you, like, a letter on paper and then you wanted to post a screenshot, it would look like you took a picture of the paper.

00:26:13.220 Now, unless we're supposed to believe that she got this letter in the mail from Mary A., and then she scanned it to the computer and uploaded it and saved it and then posted it.

00:26:23.840 But even if you did that, it still wouldn't look like that.

00:26:27.240 Okay.

00:26:27.660 So that's a font.

00:26:28.720 And I guess, look, if you have not used a computer since, like, 1992, if your last computer was one of those computers with, like, a small monitor and a console the size of the International Space Station, and it's a black screen with green letters.

00:26:48.040 You kids don't know anything about this.

00:26:49.080 This is the first computer I ever had was this.

00:26:50.760 We had Tetris on the computer, and you could write on it.

00:26:53.080 And it was green letters, and that's all you could do.

00:26:54.660 So if that was your last experience with a computer, then you might be fooled by this because you'd be like, I didn't know that you can do a font that looks like a little bit like handwriting.

00:27:03.860 I had no idea.

00:27:04.580 Now, when we got, a few years later, we got, you know, another computer.

00:27:09.000 It was a little bit more updated, and we had a word processor, and the most impressive technology on that computer was the fonts.

00:27:15.140 You could change the fonts.

00:27:16.260 You could have all these different fonts.

00:27:17.980 And me and my siblings, we'd have a lot of fun just typing things and trying different fonts.

00:27:22.120 And this is what we did back in those days.

00:27:23.480 This is how we, it was hours a day, just like fun with fonts.

00:27:26.840 That's what we did.

00:27:28.060 So, but ever since then, most of us know that you can do a handwriting font, and that's what that is.

00:27:33.440 And then we go to the, so that's bad enough.

00:27:35.660 Like, that's made up.

00:27:36.600 That's fake.

00:27:37.500 Then we go to the email one.

00:27:39.900 Okay, what are the problems here with this email?

00:27:42.160 I don't know where to start.

00:27:43.520 First of all, I don't know what email screen this even is.

00:27:45.960 Like, is this, if we're going back in time, is this like AOL, dial-up AOL 3.0 email screen?

00:27:51.860 So I don't know what email server she's even using, but it says to Nikki Haley at the top, which is not an email address.

00:27:59.460 It just says Nikki Haley.

00:28:00.540 Like, you could just go into your email, you know, you could go to your internet machine, and if you want to send Nikki Haley an email, just type in Nikki Haley, and the internet will know where to send it.

00:28:08.940 And then you got the whole thing, no subject lines.

00:28:12.800 So we're supposed to believe that Nikki Haley is opening emails from people she doesn't recognize that don't have subject lines.

00:28:21.360 We're supposed to believe that.

00:28:22.840 And then finally, of course, the biggest problem is that there's the send button at the bottom.

00:28:26.720 You included the send button, which you don't, if this is an email you received, there wouldn't be a send button.

00:28:33.360 The send button is there because you typed it.

00:28:35.880 So, and they specifically cropped it to include the send button.

00:28:43.020 They made a point of making sure the send button was still there, which it's just, it's amazing to me.

00:28:50.460 I don't, like I said, I'm baffled.

00:28:53.740 I'm baffled by it.

00:28:54.800 Why, why would you, why would you do this?

00:28:57.860 Why would you fake the messages?

00:28:59.800 And then, and then, and then go out of your way to make them look as fake as possible.

00:29:03.960 You don't even have to, if you want to fake a message, she could have just copy and pasted.

00:29:07.740 She could have said, I just got this message from James K in Iowa, and you just copy and paste it into the actual text of the tweet.

00:29:18.000 And yet, most people would probably say, that looks fake, but we couldn't prove it.

00:29:22.520 You know, you have plausible deniability, but when you give us a screenshot, you, we know that it's fake.

00:29:28.040 And here's what I don't get.

00:29:30.160 Like, if you, if you're on Nikki, now I'm going to assume, I'm going to give Nikki Haley benefit of the doubt.

00:29:33.980 I don't know why, but I'm going to assume that she, that she didn't do this, that this is her team.

00:29:41.280 Her team came up with this, which just shows you that, you know, it shows you how incompetent, like the crisis of incompetence is nationwide at this point.

00:29:50.820 And, and especially in politics, right?

00:29:54.320 And yeah, Nikki Haley's presidential campaign is fake.

00:29:56.620 It's not going anywhere, but still like it is a presidential campaign.

00:30:00.000 And if you're in politics and you're working a presidential campaign, any presidential campaign, even if you're working Doug Burgum's presidential campaign, like you've, you've made it up the ladder a bit.

00:30:10.520 So the people working her campaign have made it up the ladder a bit.

00:30:13.400 And yet this is how stupid they are, that these are the ideas they come up with.

00:30:17.380 But if you wanted to do this and you said, okay, we, we want to post some messages, uh, to Nikki, some positive messages that Nikki Haley was like, you can't find actual messages.

00:30:32.020 I know that I, I say nobody likes Nikki Haley.

00:30:34.600 I'm, I mean, I was half kidding.

00:30:37.280 I like some people like her.

00:30:38.840 She does get a few points in the polls, right?

00:30:41.660 She got her 10% or whatever it was in New Hampshire.

00:30:43.480 Most of them were Democrats, but like she does have, there are some people out there who like her.

00:30:48.900 So it's not literally nobody.

00:30:51.600 So you would think if you wanted to post some positive messages, you could just go to your DMS, your email inbox and find some real ones.

00:31:00.300 So I have to assume from this that they couldn't find any real ones.

00:31:03.140 I have to assume what happened was they said, people don't like Nikki Haley, uh, you know, we need to show that Nikki Haley is more beloved than she really is.

00:31:12.420 Let's go find some positive messages.

00:31:14.120 And then they went and looked and they scrolled through months of messages and found none.

00:31:19.000 They could not find one person who messaged her to say, we like you.

00:31:24.080 And so then they said, rather than abandoning ship on the whole idea, they said, well, we got to make it up.

00:31:29.740 What's the most realistic way to make it up?

00:31:32.360 To write our own email and keep it in the send box and then post it.

00:31:36.860 So it's wow.

00:31:40.680 Incredible.

00:31:41.840 Um, really incredible.

00:31:44.200 Okay.

00:31:46.520 Let's, uh, let's move to some good news.

00:31:48.500 Um, well, that was kind of good news too, cause it was hilarious, but, uh, this is from the New York post, a state mandated tampon dispenser inside a boy's bathroom at a Connecticut high school was ripped down 20 minutes after it was installed this month.

00:32:02.600 According to the building's disgusted principal, he's disgusted.

00:32:06.520 The dispenser was placed in the Brookfield high school boys bathroom at 9 30 AM last Wednesday.

00:32:11.200 But by 9 52, it was torn from the wall, leaving tampons littering the floor.

00:32:15.660 The school's principal, Mark Belanda said in a, um, in an email to students and staff obtained by CT Insider.

00:32:24.000 Um, the, the, the fixture was put in the bathroom as part of a new state law that mandates each school must provide free menstrual products in women's restrooms, all gender restrooms, and at least a single men's bathroom.

00:32:36.500 I am aware that the law says men's bathroom, but the actions today that led to vandalism and destruction of property were the work of immature boys, not men.

00:32:46.060 Belanda stated, it just sounds like a Belanda, but you already know this guy's last name before I even read his last name.

00:32:52.560 It was like last, his last name is probably Belanda.

00:32:54.940 This is exactly how Belanda principal Belanda.

00:32:57.640 I don't know why it just works.

00:33:01.900 He added, there have been other instances of vandalism in recent weeks in boys' bathrooms, but he found this to be the most egregious case.

00:33:09.500 The state mandate was put in place so transgender intersex students could have menstrual products available if needed.

00:33:15.900 Um, department of education spokesperson was very upset.

00:33:18.440 Everybody's upset.

00:33:20.000 Everybody's upset.

00:33:21.620 Ridgefield resident Alex Harris, who's on Ridgefield, Connecticut Pride, uh, is on the Ridgefield, Connecticut Pride's advisory board, told the outlet that this sad incident is a perfect teaching opportunity for the school.

00:33:34.080 Schools are charged with imparting knowledge and understanding of reality to our youth.

00:33:38.680 Menstruation and trans or non-binary people are simple facts of reality that threaten no one.

00:33:43.760 Now, the only thing about this story, the only sad thing, I mean, well, there are a lot of sad things about it, actually, but as far as the behavior of the boys, the high school kids, the sad thing is the implication that they've put these things up in other bathrooms, in other schools, and they haven't been torn down.

00:34:00.540 That's the only thing about this that I find distressing, is that we can, uh, we can assume based on what's being reported that this is the first time this has happened.

00:34:11.640 Um, and, and that's what worries me, um, because the idea that a tampon dispenser could be put in a boys' restroom in a high school and not be torn down and vandalized and destroyed within, within minutes, like, the idea that, that that wouldn't happen is the most disturbing thing to me.

00:34:33.200 Like, like, I'm trying to imagine when I was in high school, you know, uh, 20 years ago, um, 22, 23 years ago, and they, they put a, a tampon dispenser in the, in the men's bathroom.

00:34:48.540 Um, um, there's just no, it, it, it, it, like, all hell would break loose because of all the different ways people would want to, uh, you know, vandalize it and all the different things.

00:34:59.040 Like, it, it, it's, it's just, it would not survive.

00:35:01.260 It would not be intact.

00:35:02.940 Like, 20 minutes would be, there's no way it would make it even 20 minutes, 20 seconds at most.

00:35:07.320 Um, and, and, and, and that's because kids who, who see something like this and they tear it down are doing exactly the right thing.

00:35:19.120 That is a healthy, good, and moral response.

00:35:22.880 So if my son went to this high school and was involved in tearing down the tampon dispenser and I was told about it, I would take him out for a nice dinner to congratulate him.

00:35:33.160 Okay.

00:35:33.560 I, I would, if the principal called me about it, I would laugh in his face.

00:35:37.480 In fact, if this happened in my son's high school and I found out that it happened, I would call my son in to the room right away and I would say, mister, did you tear down that tampon dispenser?

00:35:49.660 And if he said no, he'd be in trouble.

00:35:51.940 Like, why didn't you?

00:35:54.100 What, they were all tearing down the tampon dispenser and making fun of it.

00:35:56.720 Where were you when this was happening?

00:35:58.600 Were you in, were you in your class doing your studies, you nerd?

00:36:02.560 Okay.

00:36:03.000 Next time they put a tampon dispenser in the bathroom, I need you in there helping to tear it down.

00:36:06.920 You understand?

00:36:09.320 Because that's healthy.

00:36:10.660 Okay.

00:36:10.900 That's, that's a healthy response.

00:36:12.140 And this is how, you know, you have a healthy, normal son.

00:36:15.620 If he treats a tampon dispenser in a boy's restroom as a total farce, a complete joke, something hilarious and unserious, that is a sign of psychological and emotional health in a boy.

00:36:27.420 But the problem is that we have gone way, way, way too far in the anti-bullying, you know, direction, right?

00:36:35.020 We, we've obviously gone way too far in the sermons about tolerance and, and, and, and, and being nice and all of that.

00:36:41.460 And we have at this point, many of us have, raised children who, who do not treat ridiculous things as ridiculous.

00:36:49.460 Who do not mock things that should be mocked, who do not jeer at things that should be jeered at.

00:36:56.640 And that's a problem.

00:36:58.320 Now, sure, kids can be cruel sometimes.

00:37:00.760 Kids can be, they can be callous.

00:37:02.480 So can adults.

00:37:03.160 Kids, but kids also naturally, at least historically, naturally have a real respect for authenticity, you know, and, and, and, and, and they can sniff out when something is ridiculous and inauthentic.

00:37:20.840 They can, they can see that.

00:37:22.640 They have a, they have a sense for that.

00:37:25.280 And they can treat that thing as it should be treated.

00:37:29.620 At least that's the way it used to work.

00:37:31.200 But now we're brainwashing kids into treating inauthentic, ridiculous things with a seriousness that they don't deserve.

00:37:38.640 You know, I've told this story before about the first time when we were out in public somewhere and we happened to see just walking down the street and a guy, a man dressed in women's clothes happened to walk by.

00:37:52.540 And, uh, my, uh, uh, my daughter noticed it, noticed this and, and looked over and said, well, that man's dressed in women's clothes. 0.90

00:38:03.260 That's silly.

00:38:03.860 That's silly.

00:38:05.780 And we did not respond as I think a lot of parents do now.

00:38:08.180 A lot of parents these days would respond to that.

00:38:10.020 So, well, it's not silly.

00:38:10.780 We must be respectful.

00:38:12.580 But let's, that's not as silly.

00:38:13.740 No, we responded.

00:38:14.400 Yeah, it is silly.

00:38:15.080 It's, it's very, very silly.

00:38:16.300 That's a very silly thing to do.

00:38:18.260 Yeah.

00:38:18.480 That's, that's weird.

00:38:19.280 That's weird and silly.

00:38:20.280 I don't know why he's dressed like that.

00:38:22.600 Cause, cause that's, that's the reaction.

00:38:24.460 That's a natural human reaction.

00:38:26.300 It's the correct reaction that I want you to have.

00:38:29.660 I'm not going to train my children to see that and treat it like it's normal because it isn't.

00:38:38.020 Um, but aside from being, putting the tampon dispenser, you know, tampon dispenser in the boys' room is ridiculous.

00:38:45.520 It's a farce.

00:38:46.640 But worse than all of that, it's a lie.

00:38:51.900 You know, it's there as part of a lie that the school and society is telling.

00:38:57.620 And the lie is that there are men who menstruate.

00:39:00.600 And, but that isn't true.

00:39:04.220 So really, by putting it there, the idea is to condition these kids to accept a lie and to go along with a lie.

00:39:12.160 Um, but they shouldn't.

00:39:16.420 Because despite what that, what the, the, the, the pride advisory board guy, whatever the hell the pride advisory board is, he said menstruation and trans or non-binary people are simple facts of reality.

00:39:25.500 Um, no, they are.

00:39:28.000 No, they're not.

00:39:28.640 They are not facts of reality.

00:39:29.640 Uh, which is why they didn't exist until the left invented them 45 minutes ago.

00:39:36.260 All right.

00:39:38.180 Speaking of which, I also want to mention this, uh, briefly.

00:39:40.920 Uh, Richard Dawkins tweeted this out.

00:39:45.200 Uh, it's kind of a long tweet, but it's good.

00:39:47.020 He says, the way they, I'm trying to pull it up.

00:39:52.180 Okay.

00:39:53.180 The way the non-binary faithful obsess about intersexes and about the individuals who can't produce gametes amounts to a pathetic clutching at straws while they drown in postmodern affluent. 1.00

00:40:03.400 Yes, some fish change from sperm producing male to egg producing female or vice versa.

00:40:08.080 That very statement relies on the gamete definition of male and female.

00:40:11.540 Ditto hermaphroditic worms and snails who can produce both male and female gametes.

00:40:15.340 In any case, the existence of intersexes is irrelevant to transsexualist claims since trans people don't claim to be intersex.

00:40:22.620 Also, as if it matters, humans are not worms, snails, or fish.

00:40:26.760 Uh, the rare tetraamelia syndrome, babies born without limbs, does not negate the statement that homo sapiens is a bipedal species.

00:40:33.700 The rare four-winged bithorax mutation does not negate the statement that drossophilia is a dipteran two-winged fly.

00:40:42.120 Similarly, the occasional individual who can't produce gametes doesn't negate the generalization that mammals come in only two sexes, male and female, defined by gamete size.

00:40:53.040 Sex is binary as a matter of biological fact.

00:40:56.760 Gender is a different matter, and I leave that to others to define.

00:40:59.200 So, this is all completely true.

00:41:01.440 Uh, it may, it may sound familiar to you.

00:41:04.420 It may sound like the kinds of things I've been saying, and you've heard me say a million times over the years.

00:41:09.080 Uh, especially the point about how the whole debate about intersex is, is, is, like, it's irrelevant anyway to the, to transgenderism.

00:41:16.340 So, transgender, transgender-identified people, um, uh, will use intersex, the existence of intersex,

00:41:26.080 to make some sort of point about themselves, but you are not intersex.

00:41:30.020 So, so they're basically saying that, well, um, you know, there are people out there who are, who are intersex,

00:41:36.340 and, and, and for them, you, you know, you can't say whether they're male or female.

00:41:39.640 And that's not actually true, right?

00:41:42.260 They do have a biological sex.

00:41:43.480 They just have a deformity.

00:41:45.180 But even if it did happen to be true, that would do nothing for you as the trans-identified individual who is not intersex.

00:41:52.280 So, even if I were to say, well, intersex, yeah, they're an exception to the rule. 1.00

00:41:56.140 You know, they can be whatever sex they say they are. 1.00

00:41:58.320 Even if I said that, I don't say that.

00:41:59.720 But if I did, that doesn't help you out.

00:42:02.100 You're not intersex. 0.58

00:42:03.180 So, what does that have to do with anything?

00:42:04.680 It has nothing to do with anything.

00:42:08.120 Um, but in any event, as Richard Dawkins points out, um, we are, you know, you know, we are human beings.

00:42:17.780 And there are biological realities of being a human being.

00:42:21.000 And there are, uh, and, and, if you look at other species, like different moths and worms and snails, in some cases, they have different biological realities.

00:42:32.020 But there are different species.

00:42:34.180 And so, that also does not apply.

00:42:36.340 So, you know, that's like the whole, the whole trans argument is based on pointing to intersex people, and they're, even though they themselves are not intersex.

00:42:45.240 And then, like, snails and other species, even though you're not that species.

00:42:50.960 Um, so all that is true.

00:42:53.120 The issue is that, uh, if you're Richard Dawkins, we needed you to say this, like, eight years ago.

00:43:01.900 Okay, we needed guys like Richard Dawkins, biologists, uh, and Richard Dawkins is a, is a preeminent biologist.

00:43:12.280 Um, even if I disagree with, you know, obviously, as we all know, he's an outspoken atheist.

00:43:17.600 I'm not on board with him there, but he is, like, there's no denying, he's a, he's a, he's a, he's a biologist.

00:43:23.240 He's an expert in that, in that, uh, in that field.

00:43:26.460 So, we needed guys like Richard Dawkins to speak out eight years ago.

00:43:30.720 And instead, because guys like Richard Dawkins were not willing to, because they were afraid, um, people, like, random people, like me, had to be the ones to step up.

00:43:39.920 And we were all screamed at, and we were all told that we don't have the scientific credentials to be saying any of this.

00:43:45.700 And that was always, uh, that was always a, a red herring.

00:43:48.500 That was always, you know, ad hominem.

00:43:50.740 It's like, you don't need scientific credentials to make some basic points about the physical reality that we all inhabit.

00:43:59.120 But what makes it frustrating is that the people who had their credentials, like Richard Dawkins, were hiding in the bushes.

00:44:07.180 Right?

00:44:09.120 Letting us take the slings and arrows.

00:44:11.860 For years.

00:44:14.180 And now that the coast is a little bit more clear, and we have kind of prepared the ground a bit, and we've already taken the brunt of the backlash.

00:44:23.780 Right?

00:44:24.700 Now he comes in and says, hey, by the way, uh, by the way, all those things that those other people have been saying for years now, I don't, I agree.

00:44:32.200 Except he won't even say that.

00:44:33.820 And that's what frustrates me the most about these people that come in so late to the game.

00:44:37.960 If you're going to be, like, better late than never, I guess, at least acknowledge.

00:44:42.780 Right?

00:44:43.640 Give some acknowledgement to the people that were before you and had this argument while you were hiding because you were too afraid.

00:44:48.900 They won't even do that.

00:44:49.700 Like, they pretend that we never said anything.

00:44:51.220 We don't exist.

00:44:52.620 He's the first person to make this point.

00:44:55.220 Um, and I know you might say that none of this matters, right?

00:44:58.940 Sour grapes, like, like, again, better late than never.

00:45:01.280 Or, uh, he's speaking up now.

00:45:03.120 That's all that matters.

00:45:03.880 But, uh, no, it, it does matter.

00:45:07.620 It does matter.

00:45:08.500 It matters because this is the pattern that we see in our society again and again and again.

00:45:13.960 That, um, you know, they're, they're, something insane is happening.

00:45:21.520 The left is pushing something crazy.

00:45:24.220 And there are very few people that are willing to say anything against it.

00:45:27.560 Right?

00:45:30.280 Until it has been judged safe.

00:45:34.320 Like, you've got the, the so-called experts and the people that have supposedly have a lot of credibility and all these things.

00:45:40.520 And they don't want to speak up first.

00:45:43.060 They want to wait, they want to wait till there's sort of a critical mass that's already on their side.

00:45:47.540 And then they'll come in at that point.

00:45:49.920 And, um, because this is a pattern that repeats again and again and again, it happened with the trans issue, it will happen again with the next issue.

00:45:59.980 That's what makes it.

00:46:00.980 That's why it matters.

00:46:03.260 Now time for the comment section.

00:46:04.700 If you're a man, it's required that you grow a bit.

00:46:08.140 Hey, we're the sweet baby gang.

00:47:12.380 Terms and conditions apply.

00:47:13.300 The first comment says, how do smartphones harm kids?

00:47:18.140 Can they be used by kids in a safe way with parent supervision and parental controls?

00:47:24.780 No, I don't think that smartphones with internet access can be used in a safe way.

00:47:29.900 All you can buy kids.

00:47:31.160 Safe in this case is relative, and it's like safer than, you could maybe set it up so that it's safer for your kid than the situation that other kids are in.

00:47:44.820 You know, you can mitigate.

00:47:46.440 So really, that's the thing.

00:47:47.560 Once you hand the smartphone with internet access to your kid, all you can do at that point is try to mitigate the harm that will definitely occur.

00:47:56.900 There's no way to make this phone a positive tool in their lives.

00:48:04.060 There's no way that the phone is going to enrich their lives.

00:48:06.940 There's no way that the phone is going to make their lives better or make them better people in any way whatsoever.

00:48:11.380 And I think, I don't think anyone would even deny that at this point.

00:48:15.680 I just don't, I don't think anyone with a straight face, certainly, I don't think any parent, maybe a kid would, but I don't think any parent with a straight face would look at me and say that, you know, no, I think my, you know, my kid became a better person and happier and more fulfilled when I gave him the iPhone.

00:48:33.420 No, that's just not true.

00:48:36.500 So that's the thing here, that we're giving kids these phones and whatever, what was it yesterday?

00:48:46.120 I forget now the stat, 40% of kids are given phones before the age of 10.

00:48:52.380 And everyone knows that it's going to harm them, that it's going to make their lives worse in a lot of different ways.

00:49:00.000 The hope is just that we can mitigate that harm as much as possible.

00:49:03.420 But to me, it's just crazy.

00:49:05.100 It's crazy that millions of parents are giving things to their kids that they know will harm them and that they don't need.

00:49:13.920 It's an unnecessary risk.

00:49:15.600 Like there's a certain amount of risk you have to be willing to take as a parent.

00:49:21.300 Otherwise, you'd never let your kid leave your sight, right?

00:49:24.340 I mean, I'll let my kids go run and play outside.

00:49:29.160 You know, depending on how old they are, it depends on how far they're allowed to go without parental supervision.

00:49:35.080 But, you know, my 10-year-old son likes to go out in the woods on our property.

00:49:39.800 And, you know, he'll be out there for hours building forts and whatever and all that kind of thing.

00:49:46.600 But there's risk.

00:49:47.740 Like there are bad things that could happen.

00:49:49.860 You could climb a tree and fall off.

00:49:51.160 I mean, there are snakes, you know, potentially.

00:49:53.840 It's like there's risks involved.

00:49:55.320 But there's a certain level of risk that we're willing to take because it's necessary in order to, you know, raise a human being and let them have experiences and let them enjoy life and let them gain skills and knowledge and all of that.

00:50:13.940 But also, it's, the risks are, you know, are pretty minimal.

00:50:21.640 And at the same time, allowing him to go out in the woods and build forts and do all these things that he wants to do and be out in nature, that will make him a better person.

00:50:30.700 Like, that is a positive, that will have a positive impact on his life.

00:50:34.260 And there's just no, I know for a fact that my son, when he's my age, is not going to look back on his childhood and regret all the time that he spent out in the woods.

00:50:47.880 Okay?

00:50:48.520 It's not going to happen.

00:50:51.900 If he was spending all that time on his phone, he will look back and regret that.

00:50:55.420 I know that too.

00:50:57.340 So that's the way, you know, the way that I judge it.

00:51:00.500 It's like, you are, there's a certain amount of risk that you have to be willing to accept.

00:51:06.220 But if it's all risk, you know, if it's all risk and there's no benefit that attached to that, it's all downside, no upside for your child, then why?

00:51:19.520 Why do it?

00:51:24.360 Another one says, I've had conversations with many other parents about ADHD.

00:51:27.460 And every time I suggest simply turning off all the screens in the house for two weeks to reset the kid's dopamine system, the resistance to this idea is fascinating.

00:51:35.320 Many parents can't imagine a world without screens.

00:51:38.320 Yeah, this drives me nuts.

00:51:40.640 You've heard me rant about ADHD before.

00:51:43.200 And given my feelings about things like depression and anxiety and how I don't see those as mental illnesses, it would shock no one that I certainly don't see ADHD as a legitimate mental illness.

00:51:55.280 And especially these days, like, how can you as a parent be confused about the fact that your child is easily distracted when he's surrounded by distraction all the time?

00:52:12.420 So you could raise a kid who's just surrounded by screens and lights and noise and sounds and messages and, you know, stimulation from the screens and the shows and the advertisements and everything all the time.

00:52:28.780 It's like everywhere he goes, there's screens and lights and messages and sounds and noise blaring at him from all directions.

00:52:34.340 And then he's easily distracted.

00:52:39.040 And you look at that and go, well, he must have a mental illness.

00:52:41.200 We need to put him on drugs.

00:52:43.200 What?

00:52:45.080 Why do you think that no one talked about ADHD?

00:52:48.060 ADHD did not exist even as a concept 100 years ago.

00:52:56.020 Right?

00:52:56.600 Nobody was talking about it.

00:52:58.440 Why do you think it exists now?

00:52:59.860 Like, why is it that now, it was an epidemic, millions of kids of ADHD, millions of kids are distracted all the time at a moment in history when their lives are surrounded by distraction.

00:53:15.080 And the fact that we would ignore that obvious cause of the problem in favor of drugs is crazy.

00:53:23.000 And so then what ends up happening is that you give the kids the drugs and keep them on the screens.

00:53:29.760 So you keep the distractions there, but you just put them on drugs to sedate them.

00:53:33.800 That's all it really is.

00:53:34.840 It's just to sedate them and make them more cooperative.

00:53:40.460 And speaking of the screens and being easily distracted, you know, there are exceptions to that because it also amazes me that I'm told about, I hear someone tell me, oh, my son has ADHD.

00:53:50.180 You don't understand, you can't sit still, you can't pay attention.

00:53:53.980 You don't get it.

00:53:54.720 You don't know what it's like.

00:53:56.280 Yeah, the guy with six kids, the guy who has four boys and two girls, you think I don't know what it's like?

00:54:03.640 I love that every time the ADHD conversation comes up, people tell me, oh, you don't know what it's like.

00:54:06.940 No, no, you don't know what it's like.

00:54:08.640 Okay, you don't get to do the you don't know what it's like thing unless you've got more kids than me.

00:54:11.940 So that's the only way, that's the way that works.

00:54:13.700 So we don't get to play that yet.

00:54:14.760 You gotta have more kids than me to play that game, and most people don't.

00:54:17.660 So no, I know what it's like.

00:54:18.660 I know what it's like to have kids that are distracted and energetic.

00:54:21.820 I know what it's like.

00:54:22.740 I know what it's like more than most people do.

00:54:24.740 I also know that this is a, that this is, I can see the sources of the distraction.

00:54:36.440 And I also know that this is also how kids, especially boys, on top of all that, this is how they're wired naturally.

00:54:42.300 To be energetic and all that.

00:54:44.040 But what I was going to say is that I hear this, boys, my boy is ADHD, you don't know what it's like, so on and so forth.

00:54:51.900 And then I ask, how many hours a day does your boy play video games?

00:54:56.240 So he could sit for four hours still and play a video game, and yet he has ADHD.

00:55:04.520 So he could sit still and not even move a muscle for six hours if you let him and play a video game.

00:55:11.140 Okay, but then when he's in school, he's not able to sit still for that long.

00:55:17.480 And you decide that that's because he needs drugs?

00:55:20.700 Or is it because he's just bored by that, and he's not bored by the video game?

00:55:24.460 So when he's not bored, he can sit still.

00:55:26.540 It's amazing.

00:55:28.140 Medical marvel.

00:55:28.980 It's Groundhog Day, and while the groundhog doesn't have any control over if he sees his shadow or not,

00:56:03.020 Now let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:56:10.480 So there seems to have been, at least according to my producers who send me this stuff because they like to see me suffer,

00:56:15.420 a proliferation on TikTok in recent weeks of viral challenges that women draft their unwitting husbands and boyfriends into.

00:56:23.220 The challenges are really tests.

00:56:24.860 And every week, someone on TikTok comes up with a new way for women to test the men in their lives. 1.00

00:56:30.020 And if the men fail the test, they're bad, I guess.

00:56:33.340 And if they pass the test, then they're good, at least until the next test comes along.

00:56:38.300 The problem with these tests is that they are tests in the first place, as we'll discuss.

00:56:42.340 The other problem is that they're invented by women for men with a lot of womanly assumptions about what they mean

00:56:49.440 and what a man's failure or success signifies.

00:56:52.600 It's very clear that no man was consulted in the devising of these tests,

00:56:56.860 which is a problem because men understand the psychology of men much better than women do,

00:57:01.500 or at least better than women on TikTok do. 0.87

00:57:03.180 So let's go through these one by one.

00:57:05.180 First, we'll go back a few weeks to something called the bird test.

00:57:09.240 And here's how the bird test works.

00:57:12.140 The bird test theory is basically a predictor for whether or not your relationship is going to succeed.

00:57:16.320 And it kind of goes like this.

00:57:17.820 Let's say that you and your partner are sitting at a coffee shop and you see a bird outside

00:57:20.960 and you mention it to them.

00:57:22.220 There's a couple different ways that your partner can respond.

00:57:24.800 Your partner could be like, oh, that's a really cool bird and engage with you

00:57:27.820 and take interest in what you just said.

00:57:29.700 Or your partner can dismiss it all together and be like, okay, it's a bird.

00:57:34.080 What about it?

00:57:34.680 Basically, the Gottman Institute, which is this really big psychology institute for relationships,

00:57:39.340 calls that a bid.

00:57:40.500 And the idea is if your partner takes interest in the mundane little small things

00:57:46.060 that you talk about, the relationship is just more likely to succeed because your partner

00:57:50.760 has genuine interest in whatever you say, regardless of whether that thing is a small

00:57:55.580 thing or not.

00:57:56.360 On the flip side, if your partner kind of keeps ignoring your bids, that's kind of a sign that

00:58:01.820 the relationship is going to fail because whether small or big, your partner is not giving attention

00:58:07.820 to the things that you personally care about just for the sole reason that you care about it.

00:58:12.320 Now, this is the kind of thing that makes sense if you've never been in a relationship that

00:58:17.020 lasted more than three months.

00:58:18.880 If you are incredibly naive and inexperienced and you get your relationship insights from

00:58:23.120 TikTok, you might have the expectation that your partner will be, quote, genuinely interested

00:58:28.140 in whatever you say.

00:58:29.800 But in the real world, which is populated by actual human beings, nobody on earth will ever

00:58:35.260 be genuinely interested in everything you say.

00:58:38.840 And they shouldn't be.

00:58:40.040 You're not that interesting.

00:58:40.960 Nobody has ever been that interesting.

00:58:43.140 I don't care if you're married to Socrates.

00:58:45.020 You're not going to be hanging on his every last word all day, every day, forever.

00:58:50.180 Now, I find my wife very interesting and intelligent.

00:58:53.420 But if she came into the room and said, I just saw a bird, I would not be especially interested

00:58:59.060 in that information.

00:59:00.260 I just wouldn't be.

00:59:01.500 My only interest would be in the fact that my wife has apparently suffered some sort of

00:59:05.160 brain damage.

00:59:07.160 Otherwise, why would an adult be screaming about a bird?

00:59:10.100 Bird, bird, looky at the birdie.

00:59:13.200 Like, what are you, two years old?

00:59:15.000 Now, if you saw, say, a bald eagle swoop down and catch a baby deer with its talons and fly

00:59:22.360 away or something like that, then that would be the kind of headline that would interest

00:59:25.380 me.

00:59:25.980 So there needs to be something spectacular about the bird to garner my interest.

00:59:29.320 If you saw an ostrich ride by on a scooter, that would be a bird-related announcement that

00:59:35.380 I would like to hear.

00:59:37.460 Otherwise, what do you want me to say about a regular bird?

00:59:40.960 Like, how do you want me to react?

00:59:43.220 She said that, you know, you have to engage about the bird.

00:59:45.740 What do you mean engage?

00:59:46.880 Say what?

00:59:47.440 Oh, really?

00:59:48.760 You saw a bird?

00:59:50.260 Cool.

00:59:50.760 Was it, did it, did it have wings?

00:59:54.940 I don't know what the follow-up is.

00:59:56.320 I don't know what a bird conversation would even be.

00:59:58.880 Therefore, this entire test fails.

01:00:01.780 If your husband passes that test, it either means that he's being extremely patronizing.

01:00:06.080 Oh, you saw a bird, did you?

01:00:07.480 Tell me about the bird.

01:00:09.000 Or that he's an ornithologist.

01:00:10.360 Maybe he just really is into birds.

01:00:11.440 Who knows?

01:00:11.940 Or maybe he sees the cell phone in your hand and he knows that you're filming him

01:00:15.780 for a TikTok challenge.

01:00:17.160 That could be the other reason why he responds.

01:00:19.260 Moving on to the next one.

01:00:20.040 This one is called the Ketchup Challenge.

01:00:21.600 And the New York Post explains it this way.

01:00:23.380 There's a new trend on TikTok that has people testing their relationship using a table condiment.

01:00:27.680 In what's being dubbed the Ketchup Challenge, TikTokers are pouring ketchup onto their kitchen 1.00

01:00:31.500 counters and asking their male partners to clean it up. 0.97

01:00:34.700 That's it.

01:00:35.180 That's the whole challenge.

01:00:36.300 The challenge is seemingly so simple that some are wondering if it can even be considered a challenge.

01:00:39.880 But some videos have proved to viewers that it is indeed a challenge for some.

01:00:43.720 When faced with the task, the significant other reacts in different ways and has different

01:00:47.060 cleaning techniques.

01:00:48.760 So that's the test.

01:00:49.760 Wives and girlfriends are spreading ketchup on their counters and having their husbands 0.99

01:00:53.380 and boyfriends clean it up.

01:00:54.820 And the point of the test, I guess, is to see if they'd make a good janitor and also to

01:01:00.360 see if they're obedient, which is really the point.

01:01:02.680 There are many videos posted by women doing this challenge.

01:01:06.360 And so here's just here's just one chosen basically at random.

01:01:10.120 Here it is.

01:01:13.520 What the f***?

01:01:15.080 Can you please clean this for me?

01:01:19.560 Yeah.

01:01:26.260 What the f*** did you do?

01:01:28.280 That's so funny, bruh.

01:01:42.620 There it's clean.

01:01:47.320 What's the correct way to clean it then?

01:01:49.320 This is clean?

01:01:50.480 Yeah.

01:01:51.880 You're done?

01:01:53.100 Yeah.

01:01:54.180 Okay.

01:01:54.480 That's not for that.

01:02:00.040 That's for wood. 0.65

01:02:02.800 Oh, I know what to do.

01:02:09.580 Wow.

01:02:13.620 Good job.

01:02:15.280 Yeah, I'm done.

01:02:16.280 That's what you're supposed to do from the beginning.

01:02:18.060 Now, fortunately, my wife values the cleanliness of her kitchen counters far, far too much to 1.00

01:02:24.520 ever intentionally spread ketchup on them.

01:02:27.300 That's why I'm a little surprised that so many women were willing to do this challenge. 0.98

01:02:30.080 Like, generally speaking, most women are fiercely protective of their kitchen counters. 1.00

01:02:34.640 They have strong feelings about the counters.

01:02:37.040 They take great pride in the counters.

01:02:38.500 Women love counters. 1.00

01:02:40.380 When they walk into a friend's home, the first thing they notice are the counters.

01:02:43.600 And driving home from the friend's house, they'll talk about the counters.

01:02:45.980 They'll say, did you see their kitchen counters?

01:02:48.620 And depending on the tone and inflection, that question could mean either that they're deeply

01:02:52.260 envious of the counters or that the counters were so hideous that they have lost all respect

01:02:57.060 now for their friend.

01:02:58.600 So smearing ketchup on the counter seems like an act of sacrilege.

01:03:02.360 It's also a very dumb game that no man should ever play. 0.56

01:03:04.640 If your wife intentionally makes a mess and looks right at you and tells you to clean it, 1.00

01:03:09.800 the only way to fail that test is to actually attempt to clean the mess.

01:03:13.840 The correct response in that situation is any variation of, no, are you kidding?

01:03:20.540 Do I look like your butler?

01:03:22.580 You did that on purpose.

01:03:23.580 You clean it up.

01:03:24.100 I'm not cleaning it.

01:03:25.460 And sadly, I did not see any man give that answer, which is the correct answer.

01:03:29.500 The next test is called the name a woman test. 1.00

01:03:32.040 And exactly as it sounds, the idea is that a woman asks her husband or boyfriend to name

01:03:38.660 any woman at all.

01:03:39.480 And if he does not say her own name, then he fails the test.

01:03:43.740 So here's what that looks like in practice.

01:03:47.100 So they ask your man to name a woman. 0.99

01:03:49.220 If that guy says any other name than yours, you should name one woman.

01:03:53.480 What the f*** is this?

01:03:54.540 It's you.

01:03:56.020 Just one.

01:03:58.200 Sydney Sweeney.

01:04:01.580 What?

01:04:02.060 So he said Sydney Sweeney.

01:04:05.500 So he failed, I guess.

01:04:06.600 He named a woman, but not the one particular woman that he was supposed to name, even though

01:04:11.020 that was not mentioned in the prompt.

01:04:14.280 And that one's pretty stupid.

01:04:15.060 So let's move past it and get to the dumbest one of all.

01:04:17.400 This latest trend, because as I said, there's a new one every week, is called the orange

01:04:21.700 peel test or the orange peel theory, because people like to tack theory onto things to make

01:04:27.020 it sound smart.

01:04:27.560 The orange peel theory test involves women asking their men for an orange, and in order 0.99

01:04:33.520 to pass the test, the man must peel the orange before handing it back to her.

01:04:38.360 And in some cases, she will give the orange to him and ask him to peel it.

01:04:42.880 And if he objects or asks why she can't peel her own damn orange, he fails.

01:04:47.000 So it's a high stakes gambit.

01:04:49.080 Let's see how it plays out.

01:04:51.340 You're brave, you're strong, and you're powerful.

01:04:54.020 You're also cute, which is a weapon.

01:04:56.700 And you can be used.

01:04:57.560 I was going to wait until after dinner, but I kind of want an orange.

01:05:04.120 An orange, okay.

01:05:08.140 We only have those little ones now.

01:05:11.180 Okay.

01:05:12.860 But the cutie is fine.

01:05:15.360 A cutie for a cutie. 0.83

01:05:17.240 A cutie for a cutie. 0.83

01:05:23.660 A cutie for a cutie. 0.83

01:05:25.400 This is riveting content, by the way.

01:05:37.940 That video has like 70 billion views or something.

01:05:40.460 Like all these videos have so many views.

01:05:43.640 A video of a guy peeling an orange is like, this is great content.

01:05:47.120 So the husband passes the test because he peels the orange.

01:05:49.260 Okay, that, I mean, it goes on, but I'm just spoiling the ending.

01:05:52.300 He does, he peels it.

01:05:54.300 That one seemed to be authentic at least.

01:05:56.340 But some of these submissions are a little bit dubious in my mind.

01:06:00.680 Like this one.

01:06:01.340 I'm kind of hungry.

01:06:04.340 You want me to make something for you?

01:06:07.000 I can cook.

01:06:08.360 I just actually just bought those steaks yesterday.

01:06:10.740 I could do some steaks and potatoes, a little broccoli and cheese.

01:06:15.440 No, I kind of want something lighter.

01:06:17.580 I don't want all that.

01:06:18.720 Lighter?

01:06:19.340 Yeah.

01:06:20.480 What about Chick-fil-A?

01:06:21.720 I can get you that 12-pound nugget, medium fry.

01:06:24.980 That Cookies of Cream milkshake with two cherries.

01:06:29.280 Sound good, but no, I kind of just want like a little snack for real.

01:06:32.420 A snack?

01:06:33.140 Like what?

01:06:34.160 Just pass me that orange over there.

01:06:36.080 Okay.

01:06:39.180 Coming right up.

01:06:40.460 How you want it?

01:06:41.200 Freshly squeezed?

01:06:42.320 You want it sliced in half?

01:06:43.680 Or you want a bunch of mini oranges running around?

01:06:46.220 Kyle, I'll do it.

01:06:48.020 Just give it to me.

01:06:48.620 I'll peel it and everything.

01:06:49.960 Peel what?

01:06:50.580 Look at those hands.

01:06:53.820 I just put the $100 on those nails. 1.00

01:06:56.540 Oh, my God.

01:06:56.940 You ain't touching nothing with those freshly painted French chips.

01:07:00.020 Oh, my God.

01:07:01.000 Kyle, for real.

01:07:01.800 Come on now.

01:07:02.480 No, now.

01:07:03.100 How you want it?

01:07:05.040 Just peel it from me.

01:07:06.380 Okay, I got you.

01:07:07.400 Coming right up.

01:07:09.280 Now, I don't mean to be the party pooper here.

01:07:11.060 And, of course, it's not like me to be cynical usually.

01:07:14.080 But that interaction, 1,000% scripted, obviously.

01:07:17.400 The problem is that young women on TikTok don't realize that almost all of these cute couple moments on TikTok or any other social media platform are scripted.

01:07:25.980 So they go into their own real-world relationships with false expectations.

01:07:30.600 There's just no way in reality you're going to get a response like that when you tell your husband that you're hungry.

01:07:36.580 You're hungry?

01:07:37.440 Okay, I'll cook something right away.

01:07:38.580 What would you like?

01:07:39.140 Steak, salad, fresh sea bass, caviar, polar bear?

01:07:41.280 You want to eat a polar bear?

01:07:42.840 I can run up to Greenland real quick and get you a polar bear to eat.

01:07:45.580 What do you want to eat?

01:07:46.160 Oh, you want an orange?

01:07:46.920 Can I peel it for you?

01:07:48.020 Can I peel it and serve it to you on a diamond-encrusted platter?

01:07:50.320 Can I give you a back massage and recite some romantic poetry while I feed you the orange?

01:07:55.700 It's just not how human beings behave in the non-fictional universe.

01:07:58.240 And by the way, if you were married to a man like that in real life, it would get old so fast.

01:08:02.600 It was old already after a minute.

01:08:04.720 It's like, just, dude, calm down a little bit.

01:08:07.420 It's like, it's a little bit, a little much.

01:08:10.620 And that's why the real answer to any of these tests is to not do them to begin with.

01:08:15.180 Okay, these women are trying to learn something about the men in their lives by testing them. 1.00

01:08:19.220 But here's the first thing they need to learn.

01:08:22.620 We don't like to be tested.

01:08:24.340 Okay, we are not children in a classroom or dogs in obedience training.

01:08:28.100 We are not interested in taking your test.

01:08:30.640 The very fact that it is a test automatically destroys whatever value there could be in the interaction.

01:08:36.020 So consider the bird test, for example.

01:08:37.460 If the idea is that your husband is supposed to be interested in whatever you're interested in,

01:08:43.740 well, you cannot test that by testing it.

01:08:46.360 Because you're not really interested in the bird.

01:08:48.720 There may not have even been a bird.

01:08:50.840 So the whole, it's a totally insincere, artificial scenario that you have engineered.

01:08:55.180 You're playing a game.

01:08:56.840 You aren't testing his willingness to engage with you sincerely because you are not engaging sincerely with him.

01:09:02.480 Do you really expect him to be genuine with you while you put him on the spot for TikTok likes?

01:09:07.000 The thing that men hate the most in a relationship, okay?

01:09:10.620 The thing that drives us the craziest, the thing that will make us the most frustrated is when you play games.

01:09:16.280 When you say one thing, but you mean another.

01:09:18.540 When you ask for one thing, but you want something else.

01:09:21.200 When you expect him to read your mind.

01:09:23.840 When you create a situation just to see how he reacts to it.

01:09:27.340 When you say you want something, but really you want something different.

01:09:30.000 However, all of those are games.

01:09:32.860 And men are not stupid.

01:09:34.220 They know when they are in a game.

01:09:36.020 They resent it.

01:09:36.800 They feel disrespected, as well they should.

01:09:39.340 And if he goes along with it, which he shouldn't, it's only because he wants to avoid conflict.

01:09:43.860 It's not because of his deep love for you.

01:09:46.420 But deep down, he knows he's being manipulated and he hates it.

01:09:49.940 Okay, men hate nothing more than being manipulated.

01:09:53.480 So, ladies, you may not hear this fact from your favorite TikTok influencer, but take it from me, a man.

01:09:59.960 If you want to make your boyfriend dump you or your husband resent you, the quickest way to do that is to manipulate him, even in small ways.

01:10:09.400 Now, fortunately, this hasn't been an issue in my own marriage.

01:10:11.220 My wife's a very straightforward person, so am I.

01:10:13.940 You know, we say what we mean to each other.

01:10:15.860 We're very blunt.

01:10:16.860 We don't play mind games.

01:10:17.900 We don't have time for that anyway with six kids. 0.93

01:10:19.700 Because the thing is, nobody has the space for that kind of thing in their life or their relationship.

01:10:25.620 Which is why, if you want to test anyone in a relationship, test yourself.

01:10:32.500 Go get an orange for your husband. 1.00

01:10:34.880 Let's make that a challenge.

01:10:36.420 Try to be more interested in whatever he says.

01:10:38.840 Clean up after him without complaining.

01:10:42.180 Focus on your own shortcomings.

01:10:43.800 Take your own tests.

01:10:45.800 And peel your own oranges.

01:10:48.560 That's the way.

01:10:50.300 It's also why all of these TikTok tests are today canceled.

01:10:56.200 That'll do it for the show today.

01:10:57.100 Thanks for watching.

01:10:57.740 Thanks for listening.

01:10:58.340 Talk to you on Monday.

01:10:59.460 Have a great weekend.

01:11:00.540 Godspeed.

01:11:00.880 Godspeed.

01:11:00.960 Thank you.

01:11:01.940 Bye.

01:11:10.220 Bye.

01:11:10.840 Bye.

01:11:20.000 Bye.

01:11:21.180 Bye.

01:11:21.820 Bye.

01:11:22.080 Bye.

01:11:22.400 Bye.

01:11:23.280 Bye.

01:11:23.560 Bye.

01:11:24.220 Bye.
