The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1327 - Police Departments Are Obliterating Their Fitness Requirements In Order To Recruit More Women

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, there's a national effort underway to triple the number of female

00:00:03.840 police officers. This effort has necessitated lowering fitness requirements to an absurd

00:00:08.180 degree. It's even worse than you imagine. I'll show you the video to prove it. Also,

00:00:11.640 the media's latest Trump hoax is perhaps its most blatantly dishonest yet. Democrats in Tennessee

00:00:16.180 are threatening riots because of a bill reversing so-called police reform in the state. A group of

00:00:20.800 eighth grade kids face criminal charges for edgy Snapchat posts. And our daily cancellation,

00:00:25.220 Dylan Mulvaney, just put out a music video. We'll talk about all that and more today on

00:00:29.100 the Matt Wall Show.

00:00:29.640 Have you ever browsed an incognito mode? It's probably not as incognito as you think,

00:00:59.620 and why would it be? Big tech companies have made their fortune by tracking your movements

00:01:03.620 online. There's even a $5 billion class action lawsuit going on where a big tech company has

00:01:08.800 been accused of secretly collecting user data. Their defense is that incognito does not mean

00:01:13.600 invisible. To make yourself as invisible as possible online, use ExpressVPN like I do.

00:01:19.300 Even in incognito mode, your online activity is still tracked and data brokers can still buy and

00:01:24.000 sell your data. One of these data points is your IP address. But with ExpressVPN, your connection is

00:01:28.780 rerouted through an encrypted server, making your IP address completely invisible. Every time you

00:01:33.100 connect to ExpressVPN, you get a random IP address shared by many other ExpressVPN customers. That

00:02:09.040 Memphis decided to double down on a strategy of affirmative action policing that they had been

00:02:14.040 practicing for decades. Officially, the city's theory was that black police officers are less

00:02:18.380 likely to mistreat suspects and more likely to do a better job as compared to white officers.

00:02:24.340 Now, there was never any data to support that theory, obviously. If anything, there was a lot

00:02:28.700 of data to suggest the exact opposite. Indeed, Memphis had long been one of the most dangerous

00:02:33.160 cities in the country, despite all the diverse hiring they were doing. But in 2020, Memphis went for

00:02:39.220 it anyway, and they reduced their hiring standards even further to attract more black police

00:02:44.000 recruits, and it worked. As expected, more black people did sign up to become Memphis police

00:02:49.260 officers, and the police department became more, quote unquote, diverse. But the result of this

00:02:54.080 grand experiment, as you might remember, wasn't exactly what was advertised. Instead of racial

00:02:59.460 harmony and a utopia where civil liberties were sacrosanct, the residents of Memphis were treated to

00:03:05.060 one of the most brutal police beatings ever recorded on camera. Several black police officers,

00:03:09.920 including officers hired after Memphis implemented its new affirmative action program, took turns 0.67

00:03:15.720 pummeling a black man by the name of Tyree Nichols. He died, and the officers were charged with

00:03:20.880 murder. Their specialized policing unit, quote unquote, called Scorpion, was disbanded immediately.

00:03:26.820 Now, after this debacle, the idea of diversifying the police force by lowering standards should have

00:03:34.060 ended forever. It was always a terrible idea, but now everybody can see in brutal, violent detail how

00:03:41.200 terrible it is. Getting rid of merit in police academies is a lot like introducing DEI to medicine

00:03:46.760 or to the aviation industry. It doesn't just lead to inefficiency, it leads to death and very

00:03:53.080 preventable ones at that. But somehow this lesson has not been learned. Even in the state of Tennessee,

00:03:58.220 just a few hundred miles from where Tyree Nichols was beaten to death, efforts to diversify policing

00:04:02.940 by reducing standards are underway. And this time around, the stated goal is not to have more black 1.00

00:04:08.640 men join the police force. Instead, the objective is to get more women recruits. So watch what's 1.00

00:04:12.700 happening in the city of Nashville right now.

00:04:15.140 It's a male dominated profession. So women are scared to take that step, maybe thinking that 1.00

00:04:22.620 they're not able to do it, but you can do it if you have that right mindset. It's a mindset the

00:04:27.620 Metro Police Department hopes more women will have. Their goal, a 30 percent female police force. 0.99

00:04:34.320 Last year, it was 11 percent. This year, it's 13 percent. And is it even attainable? I think we're

00:04:40.680 definitely growing. So if we can just keep that momentum going, I believe that it is definitely

00:04:44.940 attainable. Commander Tiffany Gibson is Metro's first female director of training. She says among

00:04:51.260 the biggest changes they've made to help attract recruits, especially women, no more physical 0.67

00:04:58.980 ability tests. Now trainees must pass a physical agility test designed to mirror tasks in the field.

00:05:06.000 They've also added lactation rooms for nursing moms to all eight precincts,

00:05:11.220 more flexible schedules. That's in addition to their already paid maternity leave and sick time. 1.00

00:05:17.340 What's something the Metro Police Department does not currently offer to female recruits that you 1.00

00:05:22.140 think could really be a game changer? We're trying to get going, possibly help sponsor our own child

00:05:28.100 care facility. And I think that would be really helpful for females. 1.00

00:05:31.700 Now, before I even get into the elimination of the testing standards, there's at least two levels

00:05:37.900 of crazy here. A lot more than two, but we'll just talk about two. The first is that they want the

00:05:42.300 police force to be 30 percent female by the year 2030. These are two completely arbitrary numbers that no

00:05:48.160 one ever attempts to explain or justify. Nashville is a majority female city, so why don't they shoot for 1.00

00:05:53.820 a majority female police force if they're doing this? I mean, why stop at 30 percent? And by the way, 1.00

00:05:58.300 Nashville isn't an outlier in terms of the number of female cops on the force. Nationally, 1.00

00:06:03.460 roughly 12 percent of police officers are women. Nashville is at 13 percent. So what's being

00:06:08.520 proposed here is not an effort to correct some sort of statistical abnormality. In fact, it's an

00:06:14.280 effort to create one. And the timeline makes no sense either. Why is the deadline 2030? Why not sooner

00:06:19.800 if this is so urgent? Why not later if none of this really matters? Who knows? But the bigger issue,

00:06:25.640 of course, is that they're dropping the physical ability requirements in order to get more women 1.00

00:06:30.480 on the force. And in their place are new agility requirements. And the news report doesn't really

00:06:35.420 explain what precisely is the distinction between ability and agility. I would have thought that

00:06:42.840 physical agility falls under the umbrella of physical ability, but apparently not. In that clip,

00:06:49.240 they suggest that the new agility standards will help attract women because they mirror tasks that 0.91

00:06:54.140 these women cops will have to do in the field and read between the lines. And what they're saying is

00:06:58.620 that the agility test is a lot easier than the old test. They don't go into too much detail about how

00:07:04.920 much easier this new test is. So I looked into it. The old test required recruits to complete sit-ups,

00:07:11.780 a 300-meter sprint, and a 1.5-mile run. Now, even those standards were not all that demanding. If

00:07:18.480 anything, in a sane world, we'd be talking about raising those standards. But instead,

00:07:23.060 we're going the opposite direction. The new test only requires recruits to run for 500 yards rather

00:07:28.980 than a mile and a half, plus 99 yards around some cones. There's also a couple of wall climbing tests,

00:07:35.320 including a chain link fence climb and a solid wall climb. Now, when you hear some of that,

00:07:42.540 to be fair, it might sound somewhat challenging. You know, a wall climb, a fence climb. And if you're not

00:07:50.300 in very good shape anyway, maybe some of that could be, there could be a challenge to that. After all,

00:07:53.940 climbing fences and walls, you know, it's not something most people do on a given day.

00:07:58.920 Unfortunately, the Metro Nashville Police Department has uploaded footage of what these

00:08:03.420 tests look like in practice. So here they are. Here is the chain link fence test, followed by the

00:08:10.900 solid wall test, which are part of these new agility standards. And I want you to see how much

00:08:15.960 agility is really on display in this example that the police department provides. Watch.

00:08:22.600 This is the chain link fence climb. For this test, you're to run up to the fence,

00:08:28.420 scale the fence, and continue running to the finish line. The test may be administered twice

00:08:32.800 with at least a two-minute rest period between administrations. Your fastest time will be used

00:08:36.580 as your score. Solid wall climb. For this test, you'll run up to the wall, scale the wall, and

00:08:46.840 continue running to the finish line. This test may be administered twice with at least two-minute

00:08:51.380 rest period between administrations. Your fastest time will be used as your score.

00:08:56.900 Okay. Good thing you get the two-minute rest in between those two extremely physically demanding

00:09:02.400 tasks. So when you hear chain link fence climb and wall climb, your mind immediately conjures

00:09:07.140 images of a tall fence and like a large wall, at least one taller than a human being that you have

00:09:13.260 to climb. Because when you think of climbing, you think like it's bigger than me, I have to get over

00:09:18.960 it. What they don't tell you is that the wall and fence are like three and a half feet high.

00:09:23.500 You don't have to climb them so much as sort of skip over them. It's effectively a test to make sure

00:09:28.540 you're not in a wheelchair. And then there's no big chase after you've jumped over the fence. There's

00:09:33.340 no secondary fence you have to scale. That would just be ridiculous. As you saw, the female crew 1.00

00:09:38.500 just has to trot ahead. It's like a light jog for a few feet and the test is over. And just in case

00:09:44.560 she somehow slipped and fell over and knocked herself unconscious while scaling this miniature

00:09:48.280 fence, there's good news. She can take the test twice with a two-minute breather in between

00:09:52.880 attempts. Now, I'm not exaggerating when I say this is a physical fitness test that my four-year-old

00:09:59.860 daughter could easily pass. It's like a parody of a physical fitness test. There's more to it also.

00:10:06.640 There's also a section where the recruits have to jog 99 yards around some cones in a parking lot.

00:10:13.020 Pretty grueling stuff. Watch this. 99-yard agility run.

00:10:18.480 This test simulates a short-distance foot pursuit that could occur in a parking lot.

00:10:24.380 This test requires you to make frequent changes of directions while running as fast as possible.

00:10:28.600 You will have to step over several obstacles and clear a small obstacle while continue running.

00:10:33.740 This test may be administered twice, if desired, with a two-minute rest period between tests.

00:10:42.720 What? What criminals are these people catching? We better hope that the only people committing

00:10:48.140 crimes in Nashville are 600 pounds and have no legs. But even then, they could probably roll away

00:10:54.040 fast enough to escape. I mean, did you see how far apart the cones were? It honestly looks like they

00:10:59.980 set up the course for a driving test, but didn't move the cones back together before the running test

00:11:06.200 started. What you just saw there, it honestly looks like, and I'm watching this and I'm trying to

00:11:11.100 think, what does that remind me of? It looks like an obstacle course you set up for third graders at

00:11:16.100 recess. The kind of obstacle course that, like, if you set that up for my 10-year-olds, they'd look

00:11:21.640 at that and say, that's too boring. I don't want to do that. Pathetic doesn't even begin to describe

00:11:26.320 this. You have just witnessed the maximum level of difficulty that recruits will now encounter 0.99

00:11:31.940 in police academies in Nashville. Now, as recently as 2005, things were very different.

00:11:36.980 As WPLN in Nashville reports, applicants in 2005 had to run up and down a flight of stairs.

00:11:43.460 They had to crawl under obstacles. They had to fire a revolver six times after they were exhausted.

00:11:48.580 They also had to climb a six-foot wall. So, like, at least twice as tall as what they have to climb

00:11:53.520 now. As one sergeant put it, quote, people couldn't get over the wall. So, there are people going home

00:11:57.900 and crying. I'll never forget that. Crying and distraught over they couldn't get over the wall.

00:12:03.360 Now, they don't have their chance. Well, there won't be any more crying with the new wall. Or

00:12:09.760 maybe there will be. I don't know. I also thought that when I'm watching that test. Can you imagine

00:12:13.600 the people who don't pass the current test? Because I guarantee that's still not 100%

00:12:19.080 graduation rate. There are people who can't even do that. But there's not going to be nearly as much

00:12:24.460 crying. I think we can be sure of that. As WPLN reports, quote, the extreme stunts that police would

00:12:28.720 rarely encounter in real life are gone, especially the ones that often weeded people out.

00:12:32.800 Yeah, you wouldn't want to weed people out in a physical fitness test. I mean, silly me. I thought

00:12:38.180 that was, like, the whole point of a physical fitness test. Apparently not. These days, the

00:12:42.900 exercises are meant to ensure everyone has a fair chance at getting into the academy. Again,

00:12:49.080 a broken record. But that is the exact opposite of what a physical fitness test is supposed to do.

00:12:56.980 It's not supposed to give everybody a chance. It's supposed to ensure that only the most fit

00:13:02.600 are the ones who get through. And specifically, the outlet notes, the goal is to maximize the

00:13:08.980 number of women and people of color who can pass the training. Now, before I go into what an absurd 1.00

00:13:14.800 and dangerous idea this is, it's important to point out that it's not limited to Nashville,

00:13:19.000 of course. All over the country, police departments are understaffed, and they're turning to women 1.00

00:13:23.660 recruits and lowering their standards to fix the problem. This is something called the 30 by 30

00:13:27.740 initiative. The objective is to increase the number of women in recruitment classes by 30 percent 0.99

00:13:32.840 by 2030. Again, it's all completely arbitrary. But more than 200 law enforcement agencies have

00:13:38.780 signed on to this pledge, including the U.S. Marshals Service and the New York City Police

00:13:42.640 Department. Supposedly, according to the 30 by 30 initiative, women are better cops because they, 1.00

00:13:47.540 quote, use less force and less excessive force, and they're named in fewer complaints and lawsuits,

00:13:52.820 and they're perceived by communities as being more honest and compassionate.

00:13:56.800 Apparently, perception is what's important here. You know, no word on whether these women cops are 1.00

00:14:00.920 actually more honest or compassionate. Of course, those other two statistics are very likely to be

00:14:07.140 true, if only because there are far fewer female police officers than there are male police officers. 0.80

00:14:11.260 It's easy to be named in fewer lawsuits and use force less when you make up just 10 percent of the

00:14:17.180 police department. Even if those numbers are adjusted on a per capita basis, which they don't

00:14:22.800 appear to be, it really doesn't tell us much, other than that women police officers simply don't get 0.99

00:14:28.040 involved as much in making arrests. You're not going to have a use of force complaint if you're

00:14:33.040 biologically incapable of using a significant amount of force in the first place. Now, everybody knows

00:14:38.100 that's true, obviously, even though they get extremely angry when it's pointed out. Female police 1.00

00:14:43.860 officers, almost without exception, are much less capable of doing their jobs effectively.

00:14:49.640 That's why they have to lower the standards. There's any number of clips I could use to

00:14:54.120 demonstrate this point, but here are three. And in the first one, the woman police officer leaves her 0.98

00:14:59.020 car in gear and it nearly runs her over as she barks orders at some suspects. In the second clip,

00:15:04.580 a female police officer is overpowered one-on-one by a male suspect. And in a third clip,

00:15:09.420 the woman police officer sits by and does nothing as a suspect charges her partner. Let's watch. 0.81

00:15:16.260 Right now. Get on your knees right now.

00:15:24.180 Damn. What the f***? 1.00

00:15:26.380 Girl, I thought you had a partner. Get on your knees. Stay on your knees. Stay on your knees. Stay on me, 1.00

00:15:37.220 me to get up and get on your knees. Damn, I wish you would've hit my car. 1.00

00:15:40.220 Yeah, there's another person chasing another person. Run away to the air. There's two people there. 1.00

00:15:46.760 She's a Brody, Peter. A Brody, Peter. Something happened. She lost the control, Brody.

00:16:08.400 Peter, run, please.

00:16:16.760 Drop the knife, miss. Casey, taser. Stop it. Stop it. You're going to get...

00:16:25.600 Okay, so those are just three. And like I said, we could sit here for hours watching

00:16:35.380 videos of female cops who are, you know, in water way above their heads. And you could accuse me of

00:16:42.320 cherry picking if you want, but it really, it's just basic biology and human evolution. And by the way,

00:16:46.000 you know, we could, we could, again, stand here for hours with videos like this. Have you ever seen

00:16:52.720 a video of a, of a singular female cop taking down a male suspect and detaining him as he resists?

00:17:00.940 I'm not saying it's never happened. I mean, just, it would stand to reason statistically that it has

00:17:06.200 happened before. I've never seen that. Have you? I mean, it's, it's, it's like almost absurd that you

00:17:14.220 can't even imagine it. You can't even imagine seeing that. It's an absurd thought because women 1.00

00:17:19.280 are not as physically capable in general of handling requirements of police work as well

00:17:23.840 as men can handle them. That doesn't mean that all female police officers are terrible. It doesn't mean 0.98

00:17:28.280 every male cop is better than every female cop, but in aggregate, it means women aren't as good at the 1.00

00:17:34.060 job because of all the physical demands that the job, the job entails. But police departments are

00:17:39.940 having to pretend otherwise because they've demonized all the male cops. And in fact, they're

00:17:44.580 still demonizing these cops, even after they're mostly gone. Here's how the Washington Post puts

00:17:48.860 it, quote, amid new standards of accountability and awakened mistrust in the communities, especially

00:17:53.940 after the reckoning that followed George Floyd's 2020 death under the knee of a Minneapolis policeman,

00:17:58.900 there has been an exodus of seasoned police officers. In other words, all these cops aren't

00:18:03.300 leaving because left-wing governments slashed their budgets or allowed mobs to torch their police

00:18:07.480 stations or called them racists every day for four years. No, these cops are fleeing because

00:18:11.520 they don't want to be held accountable, apparently. That's why recruiting numbers are down by 90% in

00:18:16.420 some major cities. Unless that messaging changes until a major political party and all the corporate

00:18:22.120 media stop attacking police officers, the problem will continue to get worse. I mean, even if somehow

00:18:27.180 magically a bunch of women appear out of nowhere, eager to become cops, the problem still won't be solved. 1.00

00:18:32.300 Sure, there won't be manpower issues anymore, but law enforcement agencies that go out of their way

00:18:37.980 to recruit women don't tend to be terribly successful. Take the FBI, for example. They've 1.00

00:18:42.340 had reduced physical fitness standards for women for years. A decade ago, a male special agent failed

00:18:47.660 the fitness test by one push-up, and he sued because women applicants only have to complete half that

00:18:52.660 number of push-ups. The result? Well, a federal appeals court upheld the lax standards for women, 1.00

00:18:57.900 even though they make no sense whatsoever. And what's been the result, practically speaking?

00:19:03.360 Has the FBI transformed into a highly functional law enforcement agency over the past decade? Of

00:19:08.260 course not. They send SWAT teams after protesters at abortion clinics and elderly Trump supporters who

00:19:13.880 write mean things on the internet. Remember the elderly man in Utah who threatened Joe Biden on

00:19:18.560 Facebook? This is the guy the FBI could have arrested at the supermarket, but instead they shot him in

00:19:23.140 front of his home at the crack of dawn. The head of the field office that handled that arrest is a

00:19:29.120 woman specializing in counterterrorism. And she has all sorts of news articles written about what a 1.00

00:19:34.500 path-breaking success story she is. The fact that her office deliberately chose to provoke and gun down

00:19:40.280 an elderly man is beside the point. She's a woman. Now, the point of this is not to demonize women,

00:19:47.320 of course. The point is that it's always been a bad idea to deliberately and artificially feminize

00:19:52.960 any institution. With policing, it's particularly suicidal. If anything, a sane society would be

00:19:58.580 having a conversation about how to decrease the number of women cops, which is to say we'd be having 0.99

00:20:04.500 a conversation about how to get more physically fit men involved in policing. We wouldn't be lowering

00:20:11.340 standards and then throwing women into dangerous situations they're not prepared for.

00:20:14.900 That's what a society does if it despises women and despises itself. Unfortunately, as you may have

00:20:23.780 noticed by now, that's exactly the kind of society we have. Now, let's get to our five headlines.

00:20:34.760 Balance of Nature Fruits and Veggies is the most convenient way to get whole fruits and vegetables

00:21:24.000 facing blowback for picking up on former President Donald Trump predicting a bloodbath if he does not

00:21:29.020 win a second term in 2024 while concealing that he was talking about the auto industry. Contextless

00:21:35.100 headlines arose from Trump's speech in Ohio on Saturday, less than a week after he surpassed the

00:21:39.240 requisite threshold of delegates to secure the GOP presidential nomination, paving the way to a

00:21:43.700 2020 rematch against President Joe Biden. In the general election, the media coverage that ensued

00:21:47.580 suggested that Trump was making a far more foreboding and potentially violent prediction

00:21:51.600 for the country if he were to be defeated in November. Trump says there will be a bloodbath if

00:21:57.140 he loses the election, NBC News headline blared. In Ohio campaign rally, Trump says there will be a

00:22:01.680 bloodbath if he loses November election, said another from CBS News. A third from Rolling Stone trumpeted,

00:22:06.300 quote, Trump says there will be a bloodbath and elections will end if he isn't reelected.

00:22:11.700 The list goes on. Politico bore a similar headline and noted in its report, quote, while it was unclear

00:22:16.260 what the former president meant exactly, the remarks came as Trump was complaining about the automobile

00:22:21.560 industry. And then Biden's campaign released a statement about it as well. So, you know, the corporate media

00:22:27.700 has been in a tizzy over this the past couple of days, freaking out over the bloodbath predicted by Trump.

00:22:33.640 If he isn't elected, obviously, they're construing this as some kind of threat.

00:22:38.640 Trump was threatening a violent revolt, I guess, if he's not elected. That's what all the media

00:22:45.240 headlines are claiming. And then you go and watch the full clip in context. And you see that, of course,

00:22:50.780 as noted in the Daily Wire report, that's not what he was saying at all. Let's watch.

00:22:54.940 You know, Mexico has taken over a period of 30 years, 34 percent of the automobile manufacturing

00:23:03.660 business in our country. Think of it. Went to Mexico. China now is building a couple of massive

00:23:09.880 plants where they're going to build the cars in Mexico and think they think that they're going to

00:23:15.260 sell those cars into the United States with no tax at the border. Let me tell you something to China. 0.98

00:23:20.540 If you're listening, President Xi, and you and I are friends, but he understands the way I deal,

00:23:25.920 those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now,

00:23:32.620 and you think you're going to get that, you're going to not hire Americans and you're going to

00:23:36.640 sell the cars to us. Now, we're going to put a 100 percent tariff on every single car

00:23:41.480 that comes across the line, and you're not going to be able to sell those cars.

00:23:45.580 If I get elected. Now, if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole.

00:23:51.440 That's going to be the least of it. It's going to be a bloodbath for the country. That'll be the

00:23:55.200 least of it. But they're not going to sell those cars. They're building massive factories. A friend

00:23:59.760 of mine, all he does is build car manufacturing plants. He's the biggest in the world.

00:24:04.960 Okay. So a bloodbath for the car manufacturing industry, as is clear in the context, there's

00:24:11.820 no way to misconstrue it, honestly. And in that context, it makes a lot more sense.

00:24:18.180 Needless to say, this was not a comment that was innocently misconstrued or misunderstood.

00:24:25.300 This was a deliberate propaganda campaign by the corporate press, obviously. And it shows,

00:24:30.260 again, the nature of fake news. This is a perfect example of how fake news works.

00:24:34.460 They're not lying about what he said, specifically in that he did make the bloodbath comment.

00:24:42.480 So when they put that in quotes, like he did say that. And it's also true to say that he,

00:24:50.000 President Trump predicted a bloodbath if he's not reelected. That's true. That alone is true.

00:24:59.300 Um, but obviously when you frame it that way and you have that statement alone without the context,

00:25:07.500 then it leads people to, uh, completely false conclusions, false conclusions that you are

00:25:13.020 intentionally directing them towards. And that's what they do. That's how fake news works.

00:25:17.300 Um, so when you hear fake news, you kind of think, okay, well, they're just inventing things.

00:25:23.540 You know, a quote that he never even said. Now they do, they do that also, you know, quite frequently,

00:25:29.780 but generally, especially if they have anonymous source, anonymous sources claim,

00:25:34.200 President Trump said this and that, but most of the time, if they put it in quotes, he did say,

00:25:39.080 um, but they're isolating it. They're ripping it from its context and they are heavily implying

00:25:47.180 that, uh, it, that something sinister was said. And really just by reporting on it in the first place,

00:25:55.520 that alone makes it seem sinister because in reality, there's the comment isn't even newsworthy.

00:26:04.520 There's nothing newsworthy about the fact that he said that what he, what he's saying is that the

00:26:08.980 economy will be in worse shape if he's not elected, which like that's what every, now in this case,

00:26:16.320 it happens to be true, but that's what every single presidential candidate in the history of the

00:26:22.520 country has said, but they, uh, this is the game and it's kind of mind boggling in a certain way

00:26:28.880 that the media is doing this again. You know, if you're trying to create sympathy for Donald Trump,

00:26:35.560 if you're trying to move people to his side, I don't know. I don't know what you'd be doing

00:26:38.960 differently. This is exactly what you would do. And the media is still operating in this, uh,

00:26:45.540 fantasy land. They're operating in this bubble where it's like, they believe they have a monopoly

00:26:52.440 over the narrative, but they don't anymore because things like Twitter exist. You know, there's, there's,

00:26:59.940 there's, there's, they, they, they cannot, uh, monopolize the conversation the way that they used

00:27:04.540 to. So now, you know, they used to be able to get a false narrative going and it would, it would, uh,

00:27:10.860 kind of cycle around for a while before the truth gets out. But now they start with the false narrative

00:27:16.060 and immediately the truth is also being spread. And so they're, they're competing with that.

00:27:23.160 And, um, they're quite easily exposed as the propagandists they are, but that of course hasn't

00:27:29.140 stopped them. All right. Speaking of, uh, policing in Tennessee, here's something on the good news side

00:27:33.780 of things. A piece of legislation will soon undo police reform, quote unquote, that was passed in

00:27:39.260 certain cities in the state, namely, uh, Memphis. Here's the report from WPLN. Legislation designed to

00:27:45.320 undo police traffic stop reform in Memphis is heading to Governor Bill Lee's desk. Specifically,

00:27:49.400 the bill prevents local governments from adopting any policy that prohibits or limits law enforcement

00:27:54.340 from carrying out their duties. Memphis city council voted for the ordinance unanimously in

00:27:58.620 response to police fatally beating Tyree Nichols at a traffic stop last year. It included outlawing

00:28:04.060 so-called pretextual traffic stops for minor infractions like a broken taillight. Nichols' parents,

00:28:10.000 Rodney and Rovon Wells spoke with the house and state sponsors, both Republicans, but couldn't find a

00:28:15.920 compromise. Rovon believes it's wrong for the state to reverse something so strongly supported

00:28:20.440 by Memphians. Um, well, it's like, well, we had people work very hard to pass that ordinance just

00:28:27.060 because you don't agree with the ordinance doesn't mean that you just come to Nashville and you put a

00:28:31.300 bill together and say, oh, we're going to overturn what you did. That's not how you handle business

00:28:35.260 as far as I'm concerned. Well, that is how you handle business actually. And this is a good piece of

00:28:41.140 legislation. Uh, anytime you're reversing police reform, it's a good thing. Now it's not to say

00:28:47.460 that police reform as a concept definitionally is bad. There are aspects of policing in its current

00:28:53.600 form that should be reformed. We just talked about one. How about a police reform where we're raising

00:28:58.400 the physical standards once again, that would be a reform. It would be a good, a good thing to do.

00:29:02.780 Um, but that's never what reform means these days. Reform these days always means

00:29:09.820 de-form. Police reform is police de-form. So in practice, police reform should always be resisted

00:29:17.440 or reversed where, where it's already happened. And especially in this case, there was, there was

00:29:22.080 never any need for any change to any law after the Tyree Nichols incident. He was brutally assaulted,

00:29:31.020 you know, and beaten by these thug cops. What they did was already illegal. They were already breaking 0.86

00:29:37.780 the law. They were already arrested and charged as they should be. So what do you need? What,

00:29:44.260 what does the law accomplish? They were already breaking 10 different laws and, and were charged

00:29:50.960 for it. You don't need new laws to cover the stuff that's already covered by the old laws.

00:29:57.260 Now, if, if, if there was a law that somehow explicitly permitted cops to beat people to death

00:30:03.760 for no reason, then yeah, that's a law, um, that should be changed. But the law doesn't allow that.

00:30:11.240 It doesn't now. It didn't back then. There's, there's no reason for the reform, um, obviously,

00:30:16.640 which means that the reform must be doing something other than what they claim it's doing.

00:30:22.720 Uh, now that hasn't stopped Democrats in the state from panicking over this change,

00:30:26.840 as you would expect. I'm going to play two clips for you here to give you a taste of how

00:30:30.420 our Democrat representatives in the state of Tennessee are responding to this development.

00:30:34.640 Uh, the first is from state Senator London Lamar. And here's what she has to say.

00:30:41.020 What we see here is drunk on power. I don't like that you take this position on this bill. So I'm

00:30:47.100 going to silence you. That's a form of slavery. I feel like a slave sometime in this building.

00:30:52.760 I'm over it. And all the members standing here are over it. At what point are we going to truly be a

00:31:01.480 Democratic body? Respect the fact that every single one of us are represented by the same amount of

00:31:08.200 people in their districts. And we all deserve the same voice and the same level of respect,

00:31:14.980 regardless if we agree or not. I am tired of Republican Party expecting us as minorities

00:31:20.680 to, to, to, to, to, to do what they want to do, but treat us disrespectfully. No, we're not doing

00:31:27.500 that no more. It's what part we at this time of session were gloves off. And I support any of my

00:31:33.560 members have the right to defend themselves, to not accept disrespect. And we shouldn't respect,

00:31:38.380 expect disrespect from the other side of the aisle. I just wanted to get it off my chest.

00:31:44.580 Y'all heard it. You can repeat it, but it has to be said. Senator Oliver.

00:31:49.420 Okay. A form of slavery. She feels like a slave sometimes in that building. So I guess what you're

00:31:55.960 saying then is that slavery wasn't that bad. Is that, is that what you're trying to say? I mean,

00:32:01.480 if feeling like a slave means simply not getting your way about something, then what you are saying,

00:32:06.760 what you are claiming is that slavery wasn't a big deal. It wasn't too bad. That's the claim

00:32:10.840 you're making. You're saying it was a minor inconvenience because that's what you suffered.

00:32:14.680 You suffered a minor inconvenience and you're saying that that was like slavery.

00:32:18.160 That's the consequence of comparing everything to slavery all the time. It's the, it's, it's,

00:32:22.180 it's the consequence of living in a country run by not just grifters and propagandists, but 1.00

00:32:26.760 incredibly stupid ones. People who, honest to God, could not even provide you a list 1.00

00:32:32.700 of like five historical events. And I mean that sincerely. If you, if you were to take London

00:32:38.760 Lamar, the one we just saw, and you were to ask her to just write a list of five historical events

00:32:47.000 that occurred more than 30 years ago, you don't have to say anything about them. Just, just list

00:32:51.800 them. She wouldn't be able to do it. Like you and I both know she would not be able to do it. She 0.91

00:32:56.200 would, she wouldn't be able to, she could give you slavery and probably the Holocaust. And those, 0.88

00:33:02.900 those are the two things. That's pretty much it. That's a lot of people in this country,

00:33:07.400 including a lot of people running this country, which is why every bad thing, everything we don't

00:33:11.780 like is immediately compared to one of those two things, slavery or the Holocaust, because those

00:33:16.700 are the only two things that people know happened in the world. And there's more where that came from.

00:33:21.880 Here's Democrat Senator, state Senator Charlene Oliver, I think is her name. And she had a very 0.51

00:33:27.360 similar response. Let's listen. It is a slap in the face and you might as well stomp on the grave of

00:33:35.260 Tyree Nichols for bringing this bill. Yes, we are emotionally charged. Why? Because it's personal for us.

00:33:45.260 Taylor made this personal the minute he introduced this legislation to target one family and one life.

00:33:51.880 That was lost. So yeah, we don't fight. Dr. King said the, the riots are the language of the unheard.

00:34:02.900 You ain't seen nothing yet. If you keep silencing, silencing us like this, what do you think our

00:34:08.180 district is going to do? We have had it up here gloves off. Like we're going to fight like hell. You

00:34:16.100 don't, you don't expect us to respond when you gaslight us every single day with these bills.

00:34:22.240 There's a bill to get rid of the Tennessee Human Rights Commission that they're going to bring to

00:34:27.080 abolish it. Root it in the Civil Rights Act to make sure that we have protections for folks

00:34:33.820 that look like Tyree Nichols. Don't tell me this stuff ain't racist. Don't tell me it's not. It is

00:34:41.200 rooted in racism. This was a Jim Crow bill that Taylor brought and all his Confederates voted for

00:34:47.880 it today. Oh, we got to throw that in. Okay. So we get, uh, we get, we get Jim Crow and, uh, the

00:34:54.380 Confederacy. So they, they might make it to five. Slavery, Jim Crow, the Confederacy, Civil War. That's 0.54

00:35:02.580 kind of like the same thing. So I don't think you can count that as two different things.

00:35:05.040 So they give you a slavery, Jim Crow. And I'm assuming they know about the Holocaust. So that, 0.83

00:35:10.200 so those three things is all they can do. And so, which is why every, everything in history is

00:35:16.440 compared, everything that happens right now is compared to one of those three things. Uh, now,

00:35:21.080 if I were to ask, who's that Charlene, uh, Oliver, if I were to ask her about Jim Crow, like, what was

00:35:27.080 that? When did that happen? Can you tell me a little bit about it? She wouldn't be able to not,

00:35:31.920 not, not even, not even close. Um, and, uh, but this is, it's just like a Jim Crow. It's like

00:35:38.560 slavery. And as a bonus, she explicitly threatens violence. She threatens riots explicitly. This is a

00:35:46.360 state Senator elected representative explicitly threatening riots because she didn't get what

00:35:52.260 she wants. So Trump was accused of threatening a bloodbath, a physical bloodbath, even though he

00:35:58.980 obviously didn't. Um, this woman actually did. I mean, can you imagine if Trump had said exactly

00:36:07.440 that? What, what she just said? What if Trump had said, uh, uh, you know, if I'm not elected,

00:36:15.420 you know, they say it's, it's, they say riots are the language of the unheard. What do you expect us

00:36:21.720 to do? It would be, they would, they would arrest him again. They would arrest him for the 10th time

00:36:27.760 and charge him with another crime. If he said that. And, but for this woman, it's perfectly okay. 0.91

00:36:32.720 Uh, which of course is the double standard we're used to. Here's a story out of Massachusetts. Um,

00:36:39.320 eighth graders facing criminal charges for bullying on social media. Let's, let's watch the report.

00:36:48.740 This is a universal issue that we must face as one unified community. Developing news now from

00:36:57.480 Western mass, a group of eighth graders facing criminal charges for allegedly setting up a mock

00:37:02.400 slave auction on Snapchat, Boston 25 news reporter, John Monahan live, not far from the school. And John,

00:37:08.540 the DA calls this behavior vile. That's right. He did Vanessa. And he also says the fact this

00:37:14.920 happened in a middle school is very unsettling. We also spoke to the mother of one of the victims

00:37:20.520 here. And she, she tells us this alleged incident of a mock slave auction is not the only time her

00:37:26.420 daughter has faced an incident of racial bullying. Six classmates, eighth graders in Southwick

00:37:32.860 will face criminal charges for their alleged role in a mock slave auction, according to the Hampton

00:37:38.640 County DA. Several students uttered hateful and racist comments, including notions of violence

00:37:45.180 toward people of color, racial slurs, derogatory pictures and videos, and a mock slave auction directed

00:37:52.920 at two juveniles. The mother of one of the students targeted who spoke out when allegations first came

00:37:58.580 to light, applauded the DA for filing charges. In a statement, she says in part, your dedication to

00:38:05.020 upholding justice in our community is commendable and provides a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness of

00:38:10.800 this traumatic incident. The incident took place on Snapchat among several eighth grade students on

00:38:16.460 February 8th and 9th. It was reported to school officials on February 9th and an investigation began.

00:38:23.440 Which aims to hold accountable those who committed provable criminal acts.

00:38:31.740 So criminal charges for eighth graders, we're talking about 13 year old kids here.

00:38:36.080 And that's just pure madness, pure madness. Criminal charges for edgy Snapchat posts by eighth graders

00:38:43.140 is, now were the posts offensive? I haven't seen them. As far as I know, they haven't been made

00:38:51.720 public, maybe they have been. I haven't seen them. I don't need to see them. Were they offensive?

00:38:56.200 Sure. Of course, of course, very offensive. A mock slave auction, that's very offensive.

00:39:05.220 Targeting, you know, individual people, even more offensive and wrong.

00:39:13.640 Does that mean that it rises to the level of the district attorney getting involved?

00:39:17.720 and filing criminal charges against 13-year-old kids? Kids in middle school?

00:39:28.940 No, of course not. Like, we should have ways of handling

00:39:33.020 very bad behavior from kids that doesn't involve getting the district attorney, you know, on the case.

00:39:42.960 And this is how it goes now, right? We criminalize adolescent mischief while at the same time taking

00:39:51.840 actual crimes, actual violent crimes by adults and treating it like it's adolescent mischief.

00:39:59.640 So we go easy on criminals, actual criminals, violent people who are, you know, direct threats to their

00:40:05.460 communities while turning kids who are not criminals into criminals.

00:40:08.720 It's all completely backwards. It's all, it's upside down, insane.

00:40:14.320 You know, like I often say with these sorts of cases, I would find it, now, I'm against

00:40:20.360 criminalizing offensive comments and jokes made by kids under any circumstance, and we all should be.

00:40:28.480 Doesn't mean I'm against punishing kids who engage in this kind of, of course, they should be punished.

00:40:33.100 But criminalizing it, making it a criminal matter, I'm against that.

00:40:38.380 However, it would be somewhat less outrageous to me if we lived in a society where law and order

00:40:48.680 was emphasized, like, to the nth degree. You know, if we lived in the kind of society where there was

00:40:54.400 just no tolerance for illegal behavior, where if you're an actual criminal, we're going to throw the

00:41:00.760 book at you, and there's not going to be any mercy, and if you're a violent criminal, you're going

00:41:06.140 away probably forever, if not worse than that, depending on what your penalty, what your infraction

00:41:11.360 was. If we lived in that kind of society, and then some of that was kind of bleeding down, even to

00:41:17.760 kids who are posting offensive things on social media, again, it would still be wrong, I'd be against

00:41:21.880 it, but it would be slightly less outrageous. The problem is that this is happening in the context

00:41:28.700 of a society where there's no law and order, you know, where there's, where there's almost no

00:41:34.500 emphasis on justice, where there's almost no, especially punitive justice, almost no, not just

00:41:42.700 a no emphasis, but a, but a deliberate de-emphasis on those kinds of things. We happen to live in a

00:41:48.000 society where you can commit actual violent crimes against your fellow human beings and be out on the

00:41:56.580 street that same day, and in that context is where we are putting, passing down criminal charges on

00:42:05.020 13-year-old kids for Snapchat posts. That's what makes it all the more outrageous, and by the way,

00:42:13.740 again, without having seen these posts, anyone who is really shocked that 13-year-old boys were joking

00:42:21.140 about slavery or whatever they were doing, anyone truly shocked by that is, is sheltered in the

00:42:26.020 extreme. This is the kind of thing that 13-year-old boys, like, it's, it's, it's not okay. Again, we

00:42:32.240 should, you should correct the behavior. 13, 14-year-old boys, you know, can tend to do a lot of things

00:42:38.340 that are not okay. They need to have their behavior corrected. It's not really shocking, though.

00:42:43.280 And the reason is that for 13-year-old boys, things are funny if they're extremely offensive.

00:42:54.540 So in the mind of many 13-year-old boys, many eighth grade boys, what their thing is like,

00:42:59.800 whatever is the, whatever is the most offensive thing I can do or say is automatically funny.

00:43:04.500 In the adolescent male mind, that's the way it works. Now, as you get a little bit older,

00:43:13.620 you know, there are many contexts where something that is deemed offensive by society can still be

00:43:16.880 funny, but then you, you, as you get older, you mature, hopefully you have moral standards and,

00:43:22.140 and also you need there to be things like punch lines and that sort of, in order, in order for there

00:43:26.580 to be a joke, right? Just simply saying something offensive just for the sake of it isn't,

00:43:31.700 it isn't necessarily funny, but in the mind of a, of a adolescent kid, that's often the way that it

00:43:37.960 works. Which also means, by the way, the point there, well, there's two points. Number one,

00:43:44.500 all the more reason why you don't criminalize this stuff. You're dealing with kids whose minds are

00:43:49.500 not, their brains are not even close to fully developed. And they're not thinking through the

00:43:54.700 consequences of their actions, not thinking through the consequences, to them, it's like, oh,

00:43:57.500 it's funny, so I should do it. They're not thinking through all the consequences of it.

00:44:01.140 But also, the more we try to prohibit sort of wrong think, the more we live in this woke leftist

00:44:09.420 dystopia, the more you're going to have 13 and 14 year old boys making outrageously offensive jokes

00:44:16.780 because they're looking at society and they're looking at, okay, well, like, what are the things

00:44:20.960 that are totally off limits for me? Well, that's, what's funny.

00:44:26.200 So, in other words, the more you react this way to this kind of thing, the more of it you're going

00:44:33.400 to get. Which maybe is not a bug, but a feature for these tyrants, you know, because then it gives

00:44:41.700 them the pretext to, like, try to put more 13 year old white kids in jail, which is what they want to 0.94

00:44:47.100 do. You know, even if you're not all that into sports, sports betting with BetOnline adds a layer

00:46:21.980 birthday, which I certainly do not. Now let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:46:31.960 So last week while I was out, I missed what may well prove to be the most cancel-worthy event of

00:46:37.080 the year. I have no choice but to circle back around to it. As much as you might prefer that we

00:46:40.900 leave it in the past and pretend it never happened. I'm referring, of course, to the new single from our

00:46:45.880 old friend Dylan Mulvaney. And as you may or may not have heard, the trans-identified influencer has

00:46:51.160 now turned his Days of Girlhood routine into a pop song. Mulvaney has made a mockery of women on every

00:46:57.640 platform and through every medium available to him, but he hasn't yet, until this past week, done it

00:47:02.220 through a pop song. And now he's finally corrected that oversight. The song, also called Days of

00:47:07.060 Girlhood, was released along with the music video late last week. The video has exactly the sort of

00:47:11.800 grotesque, weirdly dystopian aesthetic that you have come to expect. But in terms of sheer awfulness,

00:47:18.320 nothing can match the lyrics, which are downright abysmal on about five different levels, except

00:47:23.340 maybe the performance, which is weapons-grade cringe. All in all, there's a lot for Dylan to be

00:47:28.080 embarrassed about, if only he was capable of such a self-aware emotion, which he isn't. With all that said,

00:47:33.000 here it is. 0.95

00:47:34.240 We're doing hot girl s***. Get in. Monday, can't get out of bed. Tuesday, 0.99

00:48:04.120 morning, pick up meds. Wednesday, retail therapy. Cash or...

00:48:07.720 All right, let's cut it there. I was going to do a minute. It was going to be one minute,

00:48:13.140 but it already felt like several thousand years. So I just can't, I can't continue.

00:48:19.280 And it's pure suffering watching that. And we suffer as we watch it because, first of all,

00:48:24.440 on a musical level, it is a very bad song. I mean, putting aside all the other issues that

00:48:28.740 we'll discuss in a moment, the song itself is horrifically, almost sickeningly bad.

00:48:32.520 Basically, the musical equivalent of leprosy. But at the same time, while being aggressively

00:48:37.140 obnoxious, it also manages to be bland and dull and boring, and of course, totally derivative.

00:48:42.880 It's the worst of all worlds. It's both loud and lifeless. Even as it stands out for being so

00:48:47.600 dreadfully awful, it still feels like you've heard it a million times. So you get the same feeling of

00:48:53.000 deja vu that you get from a recurring nightmare. Not my favorite song, in other words.

00:48:57.440 As to the content, we notice a few things. First of all, once again, we should note the term

00:49:03.100 girlhood here, as opposed to womanhood. It's bad enough that a man tries to become a woman. 0.97

00:49:08.760 Mulvaney, on the other hand, is trying to be a teenage girl. He's 27 years old,

00:49:12.600 yet his whole persona tries to capture some kind of bizarre, deluded, funhouse mirror impression of a

00:49:19.460 16-year-old girl. It's always creepy when a man tries to wear the skin of a woman like Leatherface, 0.93

00:49:25.060 but Mulvaney goes from creepy to full-on horror show as he tries desperately to imitate a kid

00:49:30.740 in grade school. So if we're going with movie analogies here, it might be more accurate to say

00:49:34.800 that Dylan Mulvaney is Buffalo Bill meets Billy Madison. And second, as always, we see that

00:49:42.020 trans-identified males reduce women to cartoonish, degrading stereotypes. Consider the lyrics. 0.95

00:49:48.840 We cut it off so you didn't hear all of them, but Monday can't get out of bed, Tuesday morning

00:49:52.640 pickup meds, Wednesday retail therapy, cash or credit, I say yes. Thursday had a walk of shame,

00:49:57.320 didn't even know his name. Weekends are for kissing friends. Friday night all overspends.

00:50:01.600 Saturday we flirt for drinks, playing wingman to our twinks. Sunday, the Twilight soundtrack

00:50:06.560 cues my breakdown in the bath. That is Mulvaney's idea of womanhood, or girlhood in this case, 0.83

00:50:13.220 summarized. It's his answer to the what is a woman question. What is a woman? Well, she's someone 0.98

00:50:18.260 who lays around in bed all day, takes copious amounts of prescription drugs, is materialistic,

00:50:22.940 sleeps around with men whose names she doesn't know, spends more than she can afford, throws 0.98

00:50:27.020 herself at men for the sake of getting free drinks, and then sobs uncontrollably in the bathtub while

00:50:31.860 listening to the Twilight soundtrack. This is what Dylan Mulvaney thinks of women. And it's far more 0.99

00:50:37.820 cynical, demeaning, and insulting than anything you'll ever hear from like a red pill guy. It's also 0.96

00:50:42.480 totally divorced from reality. My wife is an actual woman, and not one line from that song describes 1.00

00:50:48.300 her. It doesn't describe any self-respecting adult woman, although it may bear some resemblance to the

00:50:54.400 ones who aren't self-respecting. That's because Dylan Mulvaney wrote the song based on his own

00:50:59.440 experiences, not the experiences of a woman. He hasn't had the experiences of a woman because he's not a 0.98

00:51:05.280 woman. No, Mulvaney is a gay man. And that's what the song is really about. These are the days of being a 0.99

00:51:12.120 psychologically stunted and pathologically immature gay man. That's Mulvaney's actual experience, which he 0.99

00:51:18.880 rips out of its proper context and tries to paste onto what he describes as girlhood. So if what he is

00:51:25.660 describing is anything, it's not girlhood, it's gayhood. That is what Mulvaney is describing. Finally, if you can

00:51:33.160 get past the sheer horror of the visuals in the music video, they do prove to be instructive, just not in the

00:51:39.380 way that Mulvaney intends. Mulvaney does not look anything like a woman in any context, no matter how 0.89

00:51:45.180 much makeup and airbrushing he does, no matter how creative he is with the camera angles. But this fact

00:51:50.700 becomes even more strikingly obvious when you see the immediate contrast between him and actual women.

00:51:56.720 In the music video, we see him dancing alongside actual women, and we'll pull up one random freeze

00:52:02.300 frame here. And now imagine that someone was living alone in a cave for the past 30 years. Imagine that

00:52:11.300 we pulled him out of the cave, which would be a very cruel thing to do, considering that he's probably

00:52:15.900 a lot happier down there than he'll be out here. But let's say we pulled him out and we show him

00:52:22.380 this screenshot. We give him no context. We don't tell him anything about trans or anything else.

00:52:27.280 We just show him the screenshot, and we ask him if he notices anything unusual.

00:52:33.560 Well, we all know that it would take the caveman less than half a second to point to Dylan Mulvaney

00:52:39.160 and say, okay, that's a dude, right? Like, one of these things is not like the other. And we all know

00:52:44.880 who the black sheep is in this group. Because those other women look like women. They are women. 1.00

00:52:51.740 Their womanhood is immediately obvious. Dylan Mulvaney, on the other hand, looks like a man in 0.99

00:52:57.720 a wig with an eating disorder, because that's what he is. He can take a lot of prescription drugs. He 0.58

00:53:03.260 can go shopping. He can spend too much money. He can sleep with random men who are all gay men, 0.93

00:53:08.580 by the way, that he's sleeping with. And he can even cry in the bathtub while listening to the Twilight 0.98

00:53:12.820 soundtrack. But he'll never be a woman. He will never even have the physical shape of a woman.

00:53:18.300 He can't fill the outline, much less can he inhabit womanhood at its deeper levels. 0.94

00:53:26.000 That's the reality he can never escape, because none of us can escape reality.

00:53:31.020 It is what it is, no matter how we feel about it. And that is why Dylan Mulvaney is today,

00:53:37.260 I'm assuming not for the first time, canceled. That'll do it for the show today. Thanks for

00:53:41.960 watching. Thanks for listening. Talk to you tomorrow. Godspeed.

00:53:48.300 Godspeed.
