Today on the Matt Walsh Show, the media has assembled the outrage mob once again,
00:00:03.520
this time to hunt down and punish a frat boy who allegedly made racist noises while confronting a
00:00:08.620
pro-Palestine protester at Ole Miss. Also, a new investigation reveals that the state of
00:00:12.740
Massachusetts is paying $21 a plate to feed glorified dog food to illegal immigrants.
00:00:17.920
The scandal isn't the quality of the food, but the fact that they're spending tax money to feed
00:00:21.420
illegal immigrants in the first place. And Kristi Noem goes on Face the Nation to promote her new
00:00:25.360
book. What follows is one of the most bizarre and awkward interviews any politician has ever given,
00:00:31.180
and that's no exaggeration. We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Walsh Show.
00:00:55.360
Can your savings weather another economic storm? Think about what you've put away for the future.
00:01:04.360
Inflation can render cash worthless, and real estate can crash as it did in 2008. During times of economic
00:01:10.240
uncertainty or market volatility, investors tend to flock to gold as a safe haven asset. Its value
00:01:15.920
tends to increase during turbulent times, providing a buffer against market downturns. This is why people
00:01:20.740
are flocking to gold now and why Birch Gold is busier than ever. Birch Gold understands that
00:01:25.520

00:01:53.700
gold. The best part is it doesn't cost you a penny out of pocket. Just text Walsh to 989898. That's
00:01:58.800
Walsh to 989898. As soon as the hobo encampments began popping up on university campuses all over the
00:02:05.580
country, it was only natural to wonder how long these students could hold out before something else
00:02:10.240
grabbed their attention. College kids aren't known for their commitment to anything necessarily,
00:02:14.700
especially right before the beginning of summer vacation. And it was never clear exactly how
00:02:18.700
stinking up a few random quads and holding out for humanitarian aid in the form of a Chipotle
00:02:24.400
burrito bowl was ever going to affect what's happening in the Middle East anyway. Of course,
00:02:28.780
the whole operation, as I've outlined previously, was never even about Gaza or Israel in any way.
00:02:33.960
Instead, it's about repackaging anti-white hatred into yet another astroturf national campaign of
00:02:39.600
riots and civil disorder just in time for a presidential election. So at some point, it's the reason
00:02:45.520
these kids would stop pretending to care about the war in Gaza altogether. They would drop the act
00:02:50.440
and move on to something else. Over the weekend, as if on cue, that pivot took place. All at once,
00:02:57.080
on campuses and inside newsrooms all over the country, left-wing outrage over the Middle East
00:03:01.600
subsided. And it was replaced with abject horror concerning a new, supposedly far greater crime against
00:03:10.100
humanity. This act of pure, unadulterated evil took place, if you can believe it, on the campus
00:03:16.560
of the University of Mississippi. And it was all recorded on video. Now, if there are children in
00:03:21.580
the room right now, avert their eyes or even turn off this podcast because it's too much for them to
00:03:28.140
see. If you have a sensitive stomach, turn away now. This is footage of the atrocity that was caught
00:04:04.180
Okay. Now, if you're anything like me, you probably missed the part of that footage that
00:04:32.200
you're supposed to be angry about. In fact, you're probably watching, like, where's Waldo? You're
00:04:36.120
watching it. You're trying to spot, where's the offensive thing? It's kind of hard to see.
00:04:40.660
For a supposedly, for such a supposedly earth-shattering event, you know, it's kind of
00:04:45.020
tough to spot. Instead, what you see, or what you think you see, is a bunch of frat bros who probably
00:04:50.980
aren't even that political. They're probably just tired of the narcissistic and highly fragrant
00:04:56.000
leftists who have been defiling their campus. They're pro-America more than anything else. The
00:05:01.520
American flag overalls are a pretty big clue there. Beyond those overalls, which are fantastic,
00:05:07.820
by the way, what's the big deal, you might ask? Well, leave it to the crack reporting team of the
00:05:13.020
Mississippi Free Press to explain why exactly we should be outraged. As one of the paper's reporters
00:05:18.040
put it, quote, a white Ole Miss frat boy dances like a monkey and makes monkey noises near a black
00:05:23.960
woman who was protesting for Palestine. Okay, so if you go back and you look at the tape and you focus
00:05:29.640
entirely on the right-hand side of your screen, you'll see about two seconds of a student jumping
00:05:34.780
up and down while flailing his arms and making a face. And we're supposed to conclude this student
00:05:40.660
was dancing like a monkey and therefore was also insinuating that black people are like monkeys.
00:05:48.100
And in turn, we're supposed to be extremely outraged by all this. Now, there are a lot of
00:05:51.920
logical leaps here, which I'll get to in a second. The path from, you know, normal to outrage,
00:05:57.420
if you want to get from one to the other, requires you to jump across like five different
00:06:01.420
widely spaced lily pads. But first, it's important to understand that this was the
00:06:06.760
unanimous reaction from the left. Even as a supposed genocide, quote unquote, is going on
00:06:11.220
in the Middle East, this is what they decided to hyperventilate over. Jamil Hill got the lynch
00:06:16.120
mob started. She wrote, quote, what fraternity does he represent? The fraternity's national
00:06:20.920
leadership needs to be contacted immediately and that frat should be barred from campus.
00:06:25.040
She wants the whole frat barred from campus, not just that one guy.
00:06:29.240
CNN, NPR, Newsweek, the Associated Press, pretty much every other outlet published
00:06:32.880
similar pieces with a similar tone about the supposedly racist confrontation.
00:06:39.000
A former DNC field worker named Adam Parkomenko wrote that this incident is yet more proof that
00:06:44.140
America is, quote, a racist country. The NAACP chapter at Ole Miss bemoaned the, quote,
00:06:49.680
abhorrent but also entirely unacceptable and, quote, deeply disheartening behavior in the
00:06:54.760
footage. The Guardian reported that some said that Mississippi's, the Mississippi's governor
00:07:00.080
reminded them of a segregationist, quote unquote, because he put out a tweet praising the students
00:07:06.420
in that video. Just to review that, he tweeted out that clip, probably didn't even notice the
00:07:13.220
supposed monkey sounds, like I didn't, like a lot of people didn't the first time. And he said
00:07:19.860
something positive about the students generally, and so therefore he is a segregationist. That's
00:07:24.580
the, like I said, there's a lot of logical leaps going on here. The Daily Beast called the clip
00:07:28.840
gross. Left-wing lobbyist Nina Turner wrote, quote, this is a video showing anti-blackness.
00:07:35.300
And Turner also scolded Congressman Mike Collins, who had praised the students in the video,
00:07:39.140
quote, representative, that is a white man making monkey gestures at a black woman.
00:07:44.260
And these protesters are not terrorists. Don't play games. Check yourself.
00:07:49.660
And to be clear, it's not just commentators on the left who are saying things like this. Some
00:07:53.200
conservative pundits joined in as well. Rob Smith, for example, wrote, the Ole Miss incident was
00:07:58.960
incredibly racist. I don't care what influencers say or post. I care what elected officials do.
00:08:03.900
Representative Mike Collins is an absolute clown for posting what he posted. I said what I said,
00:08:07.980
cry more. I like when someone who's crying says to other people, cry more. Like, dude,
00:08:14.840
you're the one crying over that video that is as innocuous as it gets. Former RNC chairman Michael
00:08:21.400
Steele agreed, quote, Representative Mike Collins, this is not taking care of business. And if you
00:08:25.600
think it is, exactly what is the business you're referring to? Your casual approval of racist
00:08:30.540
behavior and the need you seemingly feel to brag about it is an abject failure of your leadership as
00:08:35.560
a member of the United States Congress and not a proud moment for you or Ole Miss. So this is,
00:08:42.420
in short, yet another moment where several commentators on the right have joined in with
00:08:46.920
the outraged mob on the left, which is something that never happens the other way around, of course.
00:08:52.100
And in response to this outrage from all sides, the student's fraternity, Phi Delta Theta,
00:08:56.500
has kicked him out. So they have already succumbed to the pressure. It happened pretty much
00:09:01.300
immediately. Ole Miss has opened a student conduct investigation, which sounds ominous.
00:09:07.320
And instead of everybody just ignoring this episode and moving on, because that's about,
00:09:11.220
there's about 10 million more important things happening in the country right now,
00:09:14.640
it's following the standard cancellation template from 2020. The student's, uh, has been doxxed online,
00:09:20.540
his pictures all over the place, he's being threatened, uh, organizations are cutting ties.
00:09:25.220
You know the drill. The other familiar part of the story is that, once again, the mob is claiming
00:09:31.060
that out-of-context video footage tells us everything we need to know about the particular
00:09:35.540
incident. But as a basic factual matter, it's not even clear to me that this student was making
00:09:41.820
monkey noises in the first place. Again, he's featured in the video for something like 1.2 seconds.
00:09:47.500
I never noticed the quote-unquote monkey noises until everyone else pointed it out.
00:09:51.640
And without that prompting, I'm not sure I ever would have interpreted it that way to begin with.
00:09:56.280
And more to the point, you know, there's something funny and ironically racist about
00:10:00.540
leftists always trying to connect monkey noises to black people. Like, it seems to me that if,
00:10:07.120
if you see that and you, and you think, well, he's making a monkey noise, he must be talking about a
00:10:11.700
black person, then it seems like you're, you're revealing something about yourself and your,
00:10:17.820
your, your own perceptions more so than about this kid.
00:10:21.640
But this is a recurring theme and you have to wonder why that is. They did the same thing in
00:10:25.480
late 2022 when somebody allegedly made monkey noises at a girls' high school volleyball game
00:10:30.760
in Texas. You might remember that incident because we talked about it on the show, but you probably
00:10:35.740
don't remember it because the narrative was embarrassing for everybody involved and the
00:10:40.580
immediate, the media immediately dropped it. So just to refresh your memory, here's the allegedly
00:10:44.980
racist footage, which was uploaded by a mother in the stands. I want you to watch and listen and
00:10:50.100
see if you can detect the monkey noises here. Listen.
00:11:22.160
OK, so now if you with the prompting ahead of time that listen for the monkey noises, you could probably hear something that's like, OK, well, maybe I guess that's it.
00:11:34.800
You can hear someone streaking in the background.
00:11:37.680
But without that prompting, it's I don't know where your mind has to be without that prompting at all.
00:11:45.100
To listen to a video like that and number one, think, oh, that's someone's definitely doing monkey noises.
00:11:50.620
And then number two, think, well, they must be targeting it at black people.
00:11:56.140
Like to get from not just one, but to make it to two.
00:12:00.040
Again, you're saying something about your own perceptions, it would seem to me.
00:12:04.500
Now, you'll notice that no one in the stands or on the court reacted in any way to these allegedly racist monkey noises.
00:12:10.740
In fact, not even the players who were supposedly being targeted by these chants reacted.
00:12:14.720
You can see like everyone's just sitting there.
00:12:15.960
No one's even looking over to see what's going on.
00:12:18.560
It was only after this woman got home and uploaded the footage saying that she heard a racist monkey chant that some sort of investigation was launched by the school district.
00:12:26.120
But the story fizzled out, though, because if you listen to the footage, it's not remotely clear what the woman's really talking about or or or, you know, who what what noises are being made or who they're being targeted at.
00:12:36.700
People do all kinds of chants at sporting events to make all kinds of noises for all kinds of different reasons.
00:12:44.720
At Ole Miss, maybe this frat kid saw a large, irate woman intentionally antagonizing him and all of his friends.
00:12:49.880
Maybe he decided to jump up and down to yell and mock her, not because she's black, but because she's being annoying and she's antagonizing them.
00:12:57.600
It's even possible that he had no animus towards this woman whatsoever.
00:13:00.240
After all, during the same interaction, the frat bros also referred to this large black protester as a Lizzo.
00:13:07.200
And, you know, we're being told that that was also a racist racist comment.
00:13:10.240
But that's interesting to me because previously we have been told relentlessly, in fact, that Lizzo is the paragon of female beauty.
00:13:18.040
All women should aspire to look and act like Lizzo.
00:13:22.600
So really, they were complimenting her, weren't they?
00:13:24.500
I mean, if you if you think she's a beautiful woman, this is a compliment.
00:13:27.800
So maybe in this instance, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
00:13:32.980
Even if the student did what they accused him of doing, even if he was imitating this Lizzo lookalike in a disparaging way, then at worst, he's guilty of making an inappropriate joke.
00:13:46.880
Now, you can call it racist or bigoted if you want to, you know, if it makes you feel more oppressed and that makes you feel good, that's fine.
00:13:54.240
Whatever you call it, this is not the sort of thing that a kid should have his life destroyed over.
00:13:58.560
However, there are much worse sins than engaging in a mocking dance for two seconds, no matter how bigoted, quote unquote, that dance might allegedly be.
00:14:06.580
And the response to this student should reflect that.
00:14:08.780
In fact, at a public university like Ole Miss, it's also not clear that the school has any right to punish him at all.
00:14:13.520
The First Amendment allows students at public universities to exercise their right to freedom of speech, which includes speech that many people find bigoted or offensive.
00:14:20.800
And also, by the way, if you've been listening to the show for the last two weeks, you know that I have made that exact same argument about free speech, applying to even speech that we find abhorrent.
00:14:30.960
I have made that exact same argument to the pro-Palestine protesters, you know, in their favor as well.
00:14:38.160
Now, there's been a lot because there's actually been a lot of that kind of speech on college campuses the last few weeks, if you haven't noticed.
00:14:48.340
And there's no argument that this Ole Miss incident is somehow uniquely offensive and horrible, because pretty much every day, college kids are caught on camera doing and saying things far worse than this, especially during these protests.
00:15:00.100
And again, especially coming from the other side of the protests.
00:15:03.980
The pro-Palestine protesters have said plenty of vile things.
00:15:07.200
One activist held up a sign at Columbia saying Jewish students should be Hamas's next target, quote unquote.
00:15:12.580
Quote, somebody just yelled, kill the Jews at a rally at Northeastern University the other day.
00:15:16.720
Now, it's not clear who exactly said that, but you'd think that there'd be some proportional amount of interest in answering that question.
00:15:25.340
And of course, there's systematic anti-white and anti-Asian bias at all of these schools, in both admissions and hiring all the time.
00:15:32.240
And that impacts a lot more lives than whatever this frat boy was doing for two seconds.
00:15:35.720
So if we're going to destroy this one kid's life over this two-second whatever he was doing, then we should, I guess, also expel all these protesters and fire every administrator in every one of these schools.
00:15:50.460
And until we do that, then no one should even pretend to care about this one Ole Miss frat boy being bigoted or whatever.
00:15:56.160
But it's so disingenuous that it's actually nauseating.
00:16:01.000
And this is a point that goes without saying, but, you know, I'll say it anyway.
00:16:07.020
If this was a black student making racist statements and gestures at a white frat boy, none of these people would give a damn.
00:16:15.980
The outrage mob would either ignore it or outright defend it.
00:16:19.380
And we have heard, and by the way, we have heard anti-white statements coming from the pro-Palestine protesters.
00:16:26.820
There was someone on camera at one of these protests saying, we don't like white people here.
00:16:30.900
We hate white people here or something like that, pretty explicitly.
00:16:35.760
But you hardly remember it because there's no conversation about it.
00:16:39.960
And even more, we know this is the case because, you know, these, the outrage mob doesn't give a damn when white people are beaten to a pulp on camera.
00:16:52.300
I mean, forget about mean things being said about them.
00:16:55.480
For example, here's a story that precisely nobody on the left cares about.
00:16:59.200
Remember the black guy in Brooklyn who sucker punched a 57-year-old white woman in the face, breaking her jaw?
00:17:05.780
Well, he's a habitual offender who's done this several times.
00:17:10.960
Tonight, an Eyewitness News exclusive and yet another unprovoked, violent attack in New York City, this time in Brooklyn.
00:17:17.100
A vicious sucker punch out of nowhere yesterday to the face of a woman as she was just walking down the street in Crown Heights.
00:17:24.280
Tonight, she's talking through her injuries to Eyewitness News reporter, Sephan Kim.
00:17:29.400
It is a random, unprovoked, vicious attack on a 57-year-old woman in Brooklyn.
00:17:34.160
Watch as the suspect ignores another man walking nearby,
00:17:37.060
then punches the woman in her face, causing her to stumble backwards.
00:17:41.440
What happened? What are you hearing me? What are you hearing me?
00:17:44.920
I was bleeding a lot. I'm so scared, so afraid.
00:17:49.320
Dulce Pichardo was on the receiving end of that punch.
00:17:52.040
Her mouth now wired shut, her face fractured in several places,
00:17:56.000
drinking food out of a straw for six weeks, permanent damage to her lower lip.
00:18:00.360
Three teeth knocked out and she might need surgery.
00:18:02.600
In this Eyewitness News exclusive, Pichardo says he didn't say a word, just stared at her, then broke her jaw.
00:18:21.040
They just assume that none of these videos of black people punching white people can possibly be racially motivated.
00:18:29.060
You know, the frat kid's dance is immediately determined to be racist.
00:18:32.600
But a black person going around punching white people is just acting randomly.
00:18:37.620
Well, maybe the supposed monkey noises, if they were monkey noises, were also random.
00:18:42.700
And random things happen all the time, apparently.
00:18:48.660
Well, in a rare move in New York, prosecutors upgraded this guy's charges to a felony.
00:18:52.200
They also wanted to put him in jail before trial.
00:18:55.440
But the judge overseeing this case, Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Matthew Schiarino, rejected the prosecutor's bail request.
00:19:06.600
They put that guy back on the street where he can punch more people.
00:19:11.060
And if you have a problem with that, you should know that the judge doesn't care.
00:19:19.120
So he released this guy and just left the state.
00:19:22.040
He's fled the hellhole of New York, which he has helped to turn into a hellhole for a state that actually enforces the law.
00:19:27.660
Now, I can give about a million more examples of anti-white violence that's not simply tolerated but endorsed by the most powerful institutions in this country.
00:19:35.560
None of it gets a fraction of the attention of one white student doing a dance for two seconds at Ole Miss.
00:19:40.940
But I don't need to go through all these examples because it's not 2020 anymore.
00:19:45.020
There's no excuse for anyone on the right to fail to recognize what's going on here.
00:19:48.760
When one side is allowed to commit racial violence with impunity, while the lynch mob assembles to punish the other side for mockery and jokes,
00:19:58.600
it's a pretty big clue that nobody really cares about the mockery and jokes.
00:20:05.500
And unless conservatives want a beat-for-beat replay of 2020, which is clearly what the left wants at this point,
00:20:10.940
then it's well past time we stop pretending otherwise.
00:20:23.060
You know, there's nothing like sitting behind home plate at a baseball game,
00:20:25.940
being courtside at a basketball game, or front row for your favorite concert.
00:20:29.420
When you want the best, you have to act quickly, or someone else will instead.

We start with a CBS News investigation in Massachusetts where taxpayers have so far
00:21:16.040
forked over a billion dollars to feed and house illegal immigrants and homeless people,
00:21:26.340
And it turns out, shockingly, that this money is being used in a very inefficient way.
00:21:38.440
That the government is spending millions of dollars on something and doing it in the least efficient,
00:21:47.560
It's making sure, as it always does, that it gets the least bang for its buck that it possibly can,
00:21:53.840
or rather, bang for our buck that it possibly can.
00:22:01.700
The I-team was first to uncover a $10 million no-bid contract for a catering company,
00:22:06.920
and the hotel groups collecting millions for housing and food contracts.
00:22:10.860
WBZ chief investigator Cheryl Fiendaka has been digging into those contracts and discovered
00:22:16.120
there appears to be little to no state oversight of the vendors,
00:22:20.920
who are collecting tens of millions in taxpayer money.
00:22:30.400
Here are some of the dinners that taxpayers paid $21 for.
00:22:35.100
Spaghetti with hot dogs and rice with one chicken drumstick.
00:22:46.900
These lunches and dinners were given to migrants and homeless families at the Fairfield Inn,
00:22:52.420
The contract obtained by the I-team shows the state is paying this one hotel $7,343,316 for food,
00:23:03.980
with no provision or requirement that the meals be nutritious or meet USDA recommendations,
00:23:11.100
leaving it up to the hotel to decide what to serve.
00:23:14.280
When you hire a vendor like that, you need guidelines.
00:23:17.060
You really, really should have some oversight of the quality of the meals that are being served.
00:23:24.120
But the contract does not have any oversight provisions for the food,
00:23:28.300
nor does it give the state the right to inspect the meals,
00:23:32.360
meaning the state is paying vendors millions without knowing what it's getting for its money.
00:23:37.620
I don't think that we could have really foreseen just how horribly this is being managed.
00:23:42.240
When you look at those meals and when you look at the cost of the hotels,
00:23:48.760
it doesn't take a lot of negotiation to make these contracts better.
00:23:53.500
The Fairfield Inn is part of Geary Hotel Management.
00:23:59.620
and by the end of the year, will collect $24,319,212 for the meals it's providing.
00:24:08.800
Okay, now, first of all, spaghetti and hot dogs might sound kind of gross,
00:24:17.040
but I will say that that does remind me of how I ate when I was completely broke
00:24:25.740
In fact, that meal for me would be sort of a splurge,
00:24:28.740
because usually I'd eat just spaghetti or just a hot dog because those were cheap foods and easy to make.
00:24:34.440
But if I was really feeling fancy, then I would combine them.
00:24:39.540
And another combination that I loved was, well, not loved, but that I endured,
00:24:44.900
would be instant mashed potatoes and a hot dog.
00:24:49.000
So those are the two, because you would get a box of instant mashed potatoes,
00:24:51.740
you'd get a hot dog, and you'd put gravy on the whole thing.
00:24:57.320
Anyway, the point here is that the meal isn't bad.
00:25:03.920
And just to be clear here, the problem is not the type of meal.
00:25:11.020
Like, this is the issue that, of course, the CBS, the local CBS affiliate in Boston has.
00:25:20.900
is because the meal, the quality of the meal for these poor, unhoused migrants is not up to snuff.
00:25:30.260
And the woman that they interviewed was a nutrition professor.
00:25:36.760
because he needed an expert to tell us that a hot dog and spaghetti isn't the most nutritional meal.
00:25:41.900
It's also not the least nutritional meal either.
00:25:49.300
It's not that they failed to get FDA approval or whatever.
00:25:52.440
It's not that there's not enough nutritional value.
00:25:58.520
Number one, the Massachusetts state government has somehow found a way to spend $21 on a hot dog and spaghetti.
00:26:20.260
Because even with inflation, okay, a pack of hot dogs is still like five or six bucks.
00:26:26.180
Box of spaghetti is two or three dollars, even with inflation.
00:26:31.200
So even on like the higher end, if you're buying like high quality hot dogs and higher quality boxes of spaghetti,
00:26:38.580
you know, for $10, you should be able to make like 10 plates of gourmet spaghetti and hot dogs.
00:26:45.540
Should run you like one or two dollars a plate.
00:26:56.680
Problem number two, of course, is that taxpayers are footing the bill.
00:27:00.980
And problem number three, which is actually problem number one, this is the primary problem,
00:27:04.540
is that this is all being done for criminal aliens who are in this country illegally and shouldn't be here in the first place.
00:27:14.040
This is not a problem that we should have to solve.
00:27:16.720
Feeding these people should not be should not be the issue.
00:27:21.580
And I'm also not interested in hearing, you know, we just we just there was that committee hearing in New York on the migrant crisis.
00:27:31.600
And we played the clips a couple couple weeks ago where you had in this case,
00:27:36.580
it was mostly migrants from Africa who were called in and were complaining about.
00:27:43.080
I don't know if it was spaghetti and hot dogs, but it was the meals that they found to be similarly unappealing.
00:27:49.960
And they were complaining about the quality of the meal.
00:27:53.220
Well, I'm not really interested in hearing your complaint because you shouldn't be here in the first place if you're an illegal immigrant.
00:28:00.420
Now, you know, you know how I feel about the illegal immigration crisis.
00:28:06.520
You know that I want the border to be shut down.
00:28:09.200
It is disgusting and an outrage that we are allowing immigrants to come here illegally and take our resources,
00:28:17.640
take it from from us and our families while actual Americans are suffering.
00:28:29.860
I think it's worthwhile to highlight another fact that this story makes clear,
00:28:37.180
Even if I agreed, even if we all agreed that it was morally right.
00:28:43.100
It's an ideal and even a moral obligation for the United States to act as a global homeless shelter.
00:28:54.280
I think most of the people watching this show don't agree with that.
00:28:56.880
But, you know, that's the argument that's made from the other side, that this is our obligation.
00:29:01.000
We are, for whatever reason, for whatever reason, we are obligated.
00:29:04.620
Just because we happen to live here in America,
00:29:06.920
it is our obligation to feed and house anyone who happens to come here.
00:29:11.640
We have to be prepared to feed and house the entire world.
00:29:16.620
Now, the interesting thing is the people that say that will also be quick to mention that,
00:29:23.340
you know, America is not in any way superior to anybody else.
00:29:28.400
You know, American exceptionalism is a bigoted concept, they'll tell us.
00:29:35.640
In fact, not only that, but we're worse than everybody.
00:29:38.820
We are like, we're moral cretins compared to the rest of the world.
00:29:43.540
But then at the same time, we have a special obligation to take care of everybody,
00:29:52.700
But let's just say, for the sake of argument, that we were to agree with that.
00:30:00.000
We say, you know what, it's our moral obligation.
00:30:01.800
We should, we should, we should feed and house everybody, invite 8 billion, we can fit 8 billion
00:30:08.140
Like, technically we can, technically, putting aside issues of resources and everything,
00:30:12.700
technically we could fit 8, we could fit the entire population of the planet into America.
00:30:18.640
Well, if you accept that insane argument, you're still left with the problem, with the practical
00:30:28.060
You're left with the issue on practical grounds that our government is obviously not capable
00:30:35.340
of playing this role, of playing the role of global homeless shelter.
00:30:40.760
We can't, I'm not sure that any government could do it, certainly there's no government
00:30:45.940
that could feed and house the entire world, but we certainly can't.
00:30:51.160
I mean, they're spending $21 on a plate of spaghetti and a hot dog.
00:30:56.220
So they've found a way to make the cheapest possible meal expensive.
00:31:02.480
Like, I'd hate to see what would happen if they started serving, I don't know, bologna sandwiches,
00:31:07.800
It'd be like $95 a plate, bologna, white bread, American cheese, maybe some baby carrots on
00:31:17.480
That's a $95 plate at the four-star Uncle Sam restaurant.
00:31:21.720
So we don't even, you hardly need to get into the moral argument at all.
00:31:28.280
Again, as insane and deranged as the moral argument is from the left, it's like, this
00:31:35.340
It's, it's just not, it's, it's, let some other government try it.
00:31:43.760
We're over here playing $21 per plate for spaghetti and a hot dog.
00:31:51.400
Here's a clip that is circulating online right now, though.
00:31:55.940
This is RFK Jr. doing a town hall with Patrick Bette David, his podcast.
00:32:04.360
And he's asked about the issue of gender transitions for minors.
00:32:10.200
What will you do as a president to get this nonsense out, to prevent kids under the age
00:32:17.960
of 18, with or without the consent of the father, to transition?
00:32:21.480
You may even say that is an okay policy you're a part of that many families disagree with.
00:32:27.980
I mean, my, my position is that people should not be able to have access to those procedures
00:32:34.280
that minors shouldn't without parental permission.
00:32:36.940
And, you know, I don't, I don't know enough about it, Patrick, to, to say that it should
00:32:54.500
And like I said, this is from a couple of months ago, but it's getting attention now
00:33:02.560
I didn't see it until now, or at least I don't remember.
00:33:07.980
And I will say that RFK Jr.'s defenders have pointed out that this is a short clip from a
00:33:24.160
They, we just talked about it to open the show, circulating online all the time.
00:33:28.640
And people assume that they know everything they need to know based on, you know, in this
00:33:32.520
case, a 45 second clip or a two second clip even.
00:33:38.780
But in this case, actually, it's not like this is not out of context.
00:33:46.740
And if you watch the longer conversation where they talk about this for seven or eight minutes,
00:33:57.140
There's not, out of context would be if he said this, and then if a minute later he said
00:34:03.060
something that completely changes our perception of what we saw in that 45 second clip.
00:34:09.860
It's just he kind of circles around and around the point that he makes in that clip here where
00:34:14.920
he says he doesn't really know enough about it and he isn't an expert and so on and so on.
00:34:20.160
And I have to say that I really find this kind of triangulation to be more detestable than
00:34:31.580
actually just coming out explicitly in favor of child gender transitions.
00:34:37.220
Like somehow I find the position that he takes and that we often hear from the so-called
00:34:44.320
reasonable liberals, which RFK Jr. is supposed to be one of them.
00:34:47.600
But I find that this kind of middle ground, like I'd almost prefer if you just defend the
00:34:57.080
indefensible, come out and try to defend the indefensible rather than trying to find this
00:35:03.020
If you're going to defend the evil thing, then just defend it.
00:35:08.580
It seems even more deranged to try to, you know, like, well, I can see from both sides.
00:35:15.160
It's like if we were debating, I don't know, we were debating whether it's good to be a
00:35:20.500
And and most, you know, of course, most people are going to say, no, I think being a serial
00:35:27.860
But then you have a few actual serial killers who say, you know, actually, I think it's
00:35:36.440
But then if you had some people in the middle who were like, well, I think we need more information
00:35:40.840
on this topic, I before we can determine, you know, like you got the anti serial killer
00:35:45.760
saying one thing pro on the end and I can see you can both have good points.
00:35:51.280
I need to do more research on serial killing before I decide how I feel about it.
00:35:56.920
Somehow that to me seems like the craziest of the three possible positions that you could
00:36:07.520
That you should just know, you know, there are some conclusions you should be able to
00:36:11.600
simply just draw without without doing any research, actually, like there are some things
00:36:24.840
There are plenty of times when doing research is a good thing.
00:36:27.440
Plenty of issues that there are issues where you really shouldn't say anything about them at all
00:36:33.280
until you've done some research, because it requires research to understand.
00:36:37.940
I mean, any any issue involving foreign policy, for example, or most most issues involving foreign
00:36:43.120
policy require research because now you're dealing with countries and, you know, geopolitics
00:36:49.540
and oftentimes disputes that go back years and decades and centuries.
00:36:56.240
It does require some research before you can, you know, take a firm position on it.
00:37:03.960
We do have a problem of plenty of people taking positions on things without doing any research
00:37:08.420
But there are times when the why we need to do more research where that can be that's
00:37:15.660
Because there are there are things you don't need to research.
00:37:28.060
That's just not something you need to research.
00:37:31.680
The very first time that I discovered that this was a thing that was happening, whenever that
00:37:41.460
was, years ago, first time I ever encountered this concept, I immediately knew, well, no,
00:37:54.000
But there's there's literally no context that could ever make that OK.
00:38:01.060
And just so happens that I have done plenty of reading on these issues ever since then.
00:38:07.220
Everything that you read only only only makes what is obvious.
00:38:11.220
Well, it can't be any more obvious, but it only it only underscores what should already
00:38:15.380
Um, and so, again, this is just this is one of those things.
00:38:28.820
And he and he has been, you know, he's he's contradicted the left on a few issues.
00:38:39.020
And it's really starting to seem like that's really the only one.
00:38:41.680
Um, because on every other issue that we've heard him talk about over the last several
00:38:46.160
months, he basically just gives you he either gives you the full on radical left playbook
00:38:51.720
on it or he gives you something like this where it's like it's it's basically it is taking
00:38:56.320
the left side, but trying to do it in a way that seems less committal, but it's still a
00:39:03.660
And so, yeah, he's he's he's that one thing where he had the guts to contradict the left.
00:39:15.300
Either because you really are confused about it somehow.
00:39:26.100
Probably the cowardly thing is where being cowardice being cowardly is usually the worst
00:39:31.300
But whichever is the case, if you cannot and do not come out explicitly and firmly on an
00:39:43.320
issue like this, then it's just, you know, you're you've totally discredited yourself intellectually
00:39:53.120
And all of your opinions on every other topic have now become irrelevant and worthless.
00:40:03.340
Now for your your dose of cringe today, although we've already seen plenty of it.
00:40:08.960
This is a viral video posted by the Twitter account and wokeness, not made by that account,
00:40:16.840
This video is made by students at Harvard Medical School.
00:40:23.380
Looking at my notes, but my knowledge ain't fleeting.
00:40:26.640
Space repetition, give me something to believe in.
00:40:28.500
Pass all my tests, but I just give them the re-in.
00:40:30.220
In the food chain, we're the ones that eat you.
00:40:51.760
Found my best friends for life from this Harvard MD.
00:40:58.820
Now from the top, make it drop, come get your Harvard MD.
00:41:02.520
You got your offer, now say yes to this Harvard MD.
00:41:06.060
We're talking doc, doc, doc, that's a Harvard MD.
00:41:09.800
You deserve the spot you got, future Harvard MD.
00:41:25.460
I thought you would, you know, probably 15 seconds would have been enough.
00:41:30.760
It would have probably been, you would have preferred that.
00:41:33.580
Ten, 15 seconds, you would have gotten the point.
00:41:36.260
Decided to go the whole minute for your own good, for your own betterment.
00:41:46.500
You know, this is a, it's a good way to, if you have to do something you don't want to do.
00:41:52.980
Now, if you're listening only to the audio podcast, then you could hear the song.
00:41:56.460
And maybe in a certain way you experienced the cringe in an even more sort of direct, concentrated form.
00:42:03.180
But what you didn't see is not only you missed the dancing, sad to say for you, but you also didn't see how many people were involved in this thing.
00:42:12.920
Like this was, there were 50 Harvard MDs who got together on four or five different locations across campus to make the worst music video of all time.
00:42:24.660
And I know I tend to harp on this point anytime we play bad poetry or bad music, which we so often do on the show.
00:42:38.200
I mean, look, you can't rap, you can't sing, you can't dance.
00:42:49.860
You can't figure out how to write lines that rhyme at least.
00:42:54.860
You're messing with some Harvard MDs, found my best friends for life as a Harvard MD, giving everything I got for, to be a Harvard MD or whatever.
00:43:09.580
And also, by the way, you can't put best friends for life.
00:43:17.040
It's like there are laws against that, or there should be.
00:43:20.980
But that's really a minor concern in the grand scheme of things, I suppose.
00:43:26.420
I think people making rap songs and poetry that doesn't rhyme has become, it's a real epidemic in this country.
00:43:35.640
Still, the bigger issue is just the total collapse of professionalism everywhere in the country, especially in the medical field.
00:43:44.940
Which is the place where, you might argue, we need it the most.
00:43:50.400
Like, 30 or 40 years ago, you would not have been able to find any Harvard MDs or MDs anywhere else that would participate in something like this.
00:44:03.260
Just because, like, it's not, you don't do that.
00:44:06.540
It's a certain dignity to being, or there should be, to being in the medical profession.
00:44:14.000
There's a kind of dignity to that, and you wouldn't be caught dead participating in something like this.
00:44:18.180
Not because you can't have fun or anything like that, but just, like, you wouldn't, especially not in the, you know, with the white coats, and I don't know why they're wearing masks the whole time, but, like, they're in professional attire doing this.
00:44:30.360
And I think not all that long ago, you would not have been able to find any doctor who would participate in that.
00:44:38.540
And now it's hard to find a doctor who won't do something like this.
00:44:42.660
I mean, it's like every hospital and medical school in the country is just churning out music videos and dance videos and everything constantly.
00:44:52.760
And I think that that is not exactly a positive development.
00:44:57.560
And now a very special message from our old friend, Adam Carolla.
00:45:00.840

I'm a heteronormative, cisgendered, white male.
00:45:58.000
We drink more before 9 a.m. than you Navy pukes do all day.
00:46:01.280
He rubbed all the fur off his emotional support ferret.
00:46:20.600
Sorry, I just need to find a thingy to fix my gaming chair.
00:46:23.660
When I was on the construction site, my chair was a five-gallon bucket.
00:46:37.460
Remember, Mr. Burcham's series premiere this Sunday, 9 o'clock, 8 central.
00:46:51.720
Well, last week we endured one of the silliest outrage cycles in recent memory when the media
00:47:02.480
and the internet mob came together to scream at South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem for killing
00:47:09.280
Now, as we discussed, the anger was absurdly overblown and incredibly stupid, but Noem was
00:47:13.700
even stupider for bringing the dog-killing story up in the first place.
00:47:16.880
And she included the anecdote in her forthcoming book titled No Going Back, scheduled to be
00:47:23.580
The book is obviously meant to increase her national political profile and boost her unofficial
00:47:28.700
Instead, as any story about killing a dog is destined to do in our culture, it torpedoed
00:47:33.640
her vice presidential aspirations and her political career along with it.
00:47:37.360
This book was supposed to be her ticket to the White House, but now she'll have to settle
00:47:40.220
for being a part-time Fox News contributor, which is where her career would have ultimately
00:47:46.680
So you might say this just gets her to the ultimate destination much more efficiently
00:47:52.280
But in any event, it turns out that the story of her poor deceased dog is not the only strange
00:47:57.500
detail that she, or more precisely, her ghostwriter, included in the book.
00:48:02.080
On Sunday, she appeared on Face the Nation to talk about the book, and the conversation went
00:48:10.300
So you write about lessons learned in leadership, and you bring up some specific incidents I want
00:48:18.640
You talk about meeting some world leaders and one specific one.
00:48:23.440
Quote, I remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.
00:48:27.600
I'm sure he underestimated me having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants.
00:48:37.780
Well, you know, as soon as this was brought to my attention, I certainly made some changes
00:48:52.580
As soon as it was brought to my attention, we went forward and have made some edits.
00:48:57.320
So I'm glad that this book is being released in a couple of days and that those edits will
00:49:01.800
be in place and that people will have the updated version.
00:49:13.940
I think I've talked extensively in this book about my time serving in Congress, my time as
00:49:18.640
governor, before governor, some of the travels that I've had.
00:49:22.260
I'm not going to talk about my specific meetings with world leaders.
00:49:30.080
And as soon as it was brought to my attention, I made sure that that was adjusted.
00:49:38.880
So she says that she's not going to talk about any specific meeting with world leaders, except
00:49:43.660
that in her book, the one that she's there to promote, she does talk about a specific
00:49:50.100
The problem is that any vaguely aware person will know that the communist dictator of North
00:49:56.020
Korea probably isn't holding any meetings with the governor of South Dakota, because
00:50:03.000
And Noam has asked whether that meeting actually happened.
00:50:05.080
And all she will say is that it was brought to her attention.
00:50:13.580
Did somebody bring to her attention the fact that she never actually met the leader of North
00:50:17.620
Korea, or did someone bring to her attention the fact that this claim was made in her book?
00:50:23.280
And if the former, then how could she have not known that she didn't actually meet the
00:50:28.360
And if the latter, how could she have not known that this claim was made in her book?
00:50:38.700
Well, we know she read it because she's the narrator on the audiobook.
00:50:43.740
Either she knowingly lied about meeting Kim Jong-un and just assumed that nobody would call
00:50:48.400
her on it, or she thought she met him, only to find out later that she didn't.
00:50:55.840
The interviewer probes that question to find out how could you mix this up, but really doesn't
00:51:03.400
It all adds up to, as we can see, the most awkward, cringiest kickoff to a book tour that
00:51:10.880
This exchange about North Korea and the question of whether Noam has ever actually met Kim Jong-un
00:51:15.220
or been to North Korea, or whether she knows where North Korea is or what it is, continues,
00:51:21.000
all while Noam refuses to admit that any mistake was made.
00:51:23.560
Even though she says that the thing she won't admit is a mistake is being changed, nonetheless,
00:51:31.860
And I'm taking responsibility for the change that we've made.
00:51:43.820
You're not taking responsibility for the mistakes in the book.
00:51:45.640
I've decided this, and I am saying that this book is very, very good, and I've met with
00:51:52.620
many world leaders, and that there are world leaders that I've met with that are in this
00:51:57.840
There are many that I've met with that are not in this book.
00:52:00.760
And this is an anecdote that I asked to have removed because I think it's appropriate at
00:52:07.780
But I'm not going to talk to you about those personal meetings that I've had with world leaders.
00:52:11.600
I'm just not going to have that conversation because I think it's important.
00:52:18.200
I'm not going to have that conversation because I think it's important?
00:52:21.440
So then wouldn't you want to have the conversation if it's important?
00:52:24.900
And again, if you don't want to give talk about personal meetings, why is it in your book?
00:52:32.040
So, Governor, did you lie about what's in the book?
00:52:42.260
So translation, I didn't write my book or read it until I did the audio book, but I
00:52:48.940
And if I did notice any problems, I figured it was too late to bring it up.
00:52:52.360
And I just hope that nobody else would notice, which is a safe bet because as everybody knows,
00:52:57.080
Republican politicians, especially ones that are associated with or hope to be associated
00:53:00.800
with Donald Trump, rarely encounter any scrutiny at all.
00:53:04.080
So, of course, why couldn't you get away with just flagrantly making up events in your book?
00:53:10.820
This brought us finally to the infamous story of poor Cricket, and here's how that exchange
00:53:21.800
I know you know this question is coming because there's been such an enormous backlash about
00:53:26.480
your revelation that you shot and killed a wire hair pointer named Cricket, who is 14 months old.
00:53:32.820
You say in the book she came from another family that struggled with her aggression.
00:53:39.320
She got too excited, ruined the hunt, and then attacked and killed some chickens.
00:53:43.700
I wonder if you have regrets about sharing this story.
00:53:49.720
You know, Margaret, this book is filled with vulnerable, painful moments in my life, filled
00:53:55.860
with times where I've made very difficult decisions.
00:53:58.560
The reason that the story is in the book because people need to understand who I am and some of
00:54:04.620
This was a dangerous animal that was killing livestock and attacking people.
00:54:11.680
Our operation had many kids running around and people in interaction with the public.
00:54:17.660
I think you're a mother, too, and you have little kiddos.
00:54:20.380
Would you make a choice between your children or a dangerous animal?
00:54:23.620
And I think I would ask everybody in the country to put themselves in that situation because
00:54:28.380
And I talk about it because what I'm tired of in this country is politicians who pretend
00:54:33.300
to be something that they're not, that they aren't willing to have the hard conversations
00:54:37.220
and look at the past and the tough decisions that they've made.
00:54:41.300
What I talk about in the book extensively when people are able to get it on Tuesday is to
00:54:45.680
see the whole story and the truth, not the spin that the media has put on this story.
00:54:50.000
The media has put some or removed most of the facts.
00:54:53.680
And what the reason this is in there is because I want people to know that I don't ask anybody
00:55:01.440
I don't ask anybody else to take on my responsibilities.
00:55:09.240
I actually would have respected her more if she had just said that.
00:55:12.160
Like if she had just said, look, I wanted to kill a dog, so I killed it.
00:55:18.060
Like I would have, I'll be alone in this, but I personally would have respected that a little
00:55:24.160
But although now, given the made up Kim Jong-un story, I'm seriously starting to wonder whether
00:55:31.860
It's possible that she never killed any dog and her ghostwriter made that up too.
00:55:36.960
And maybe Noam didn't want to admit that it was made up, so she just went with it.
00:55:41.240
That's at least a possibility we have to consider at this point.
00:55:44.360
And that's not the only animal execution recounted in her memoir.
00:55:47.040
Soon, the conversation turned to the goat that also crossed Kristi Noam and didn't live
00:55:57.040
In a part of a chapter called Bad Day to Be a Goat, and then after you shot the dog, you
00:56:03.140
quote, realized another unpleasant job needed to be done.
00:56:06.540
Walking back up to the yard, I spotted our billy goat.
00:56:09.380
You said he smelled and would chase kids, so you took him to the gravel pit and shot him
00:56:19.840
And I'm asking you this because it seems like you're celebrating the killing of the animals.
00:56:27.320
This has been a story that my political opponents have tried to use against me for years.
00:56:31.100
It's well known in South Dakota, and it has been to other people.
00:56:34.980
And I want the truth to be out there and to understand that these animals were attacking
00:56:40.120
my children, that we live on a farm and a ranch, and that tough decisions are made many times.
00:56:48.580
And I'll tell you, the extremism of other people and how they have attacked me politically,
00:56:54.680
They're doing the same thing to me that they do to Donald Trump every day.
00:56:58.200
First of all, don't bring Donald Trump into this.
00:57:08.100
But I'm sorry, let's just back up for a moment.
00:57:10.380
So she killed the goat on the same day that she killed the dog.
00:57:18.480
She said, I don't think we knew that, or at least I didn't.
00:57:21.640
She was hyped up on adrenaline, filled with bloodlust, looking for something else to kill.
00:57:27.160
And she happened to see that punk-ass goat hanging out by the barn and just decided then
00:57:33.580
to take him to the same gravel pit that at this point, I guess, was covered in blood
00:57:41.860
And this is a story that a politician has decided to tell in her memoir, and she recounts
00:57:51.720
Now, I'm, and also, by the way, the fact that this, according to her, this has been a political,
00:57:58.740
this is like a well-known political controversy in South Dakota going back years.
00:58:02.620
Like, they've been debating the smelly goat that Kristi Noam killed for years now.
00:58:11.300
I don't know if people in South Dakota, when they heard this story, like, oh yeah, so there's
00:58:16.540
I'm not sure if it's like, if it's that well-known, but that's pretty great if it is.
00:58:21.580
I'm starting to get the impression that this whole book is just her bragging about killing
00:58:25.360
various animals, interspersed with imaginary, fictionalized retellings of meetings with world
00:58:32.740
So the whole book is like, it's like a murderous, blood-soaked fever dream.
00:58:41.160
Honest to God, it sounds, it sounds entertaining at the very least.
00:58:45.720
And we haven't even made it to the best part yet.
00:58:50.500
But on the, on this point, though, because you have been rumored to be a potential vice
00:58:55.180
presidential candidate, as you know, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said,
00:58:59.620
killing the dog and then writing about it ended any possibility of her being picked as VP.
00:59:07.060
In fact, at the end of the book, you say the very first thing you would do if you got to
00:59:11.060
the White House that was different from Joe Biden is you'd make sure Joe Biden's dog was
00:59:22.140
Do you still think that you have a shot at being a VP?
00:59:25.700
Well, number one, Joe Biden's dog has attacked 24 Secret Service people.
00:59:33.420
So how many people is enough people to be attacked and dangerously hurt before you make a decision
00:59:40.720
Well, he's not living at the White House anymore.
00:59:41.960
That's the question that the president should be held accountable to.
00:59:50.320
She really ends the book by threatening to kill Joe Biden's dog.
00:59:56.920
I'll be pre-ordering my copy as soon as this show is over.
01:00:01.300
And also, I like, by the way, this interview was just nothing but the interviewer bringing
01:00:06.120
up one animal after another and asking for her to justify why she killed it.
01:00:10.700
And or bringing up one animal after another to justify why she killed it or will kill it
01:00:18.720
You know, she's like, well, that ghost smelled like garbage and it was annoying my kids.
01:00:24.640
Now, granted, when I say that I want to read this book, it's because the book, you know,
01:00:30.540
it would seem is a completely insane train wreck.
01:00:35.460
And that might help her sell copies, but it represents an act of political suicide.
01:00:39.940
I mean, this is something so close to actual self-immolation that watching that interview,
01:00:48.120
She has destroyed herself completely in the most unnecessary, egregious, and hilarious way
01:00:59.900
And she's done all that in an effort to promote herself.
01:01:04.540
But that is why Christy Noem is not by me, but by her own choosing today canceled.
