Today on the Matt Walsh Show, after a trans-identified male sued for access to a women's-only app,
00:00:04.580
a court in Australia had to issue a formal ruling officially defining the word woman.
00:00:08.800
It's no surprise that the court managed to somehow get the answer wrong, however.
00:00:13.060
Also, RFK Jr. shakes up the race in a major way by endorsing Trump.
00:00:16.480
Trump comes out for reproductive rights, quote-unquote.
00:00:19.340
I'll play another clip from my upcoming movie, Am I Racist?
00:00:24.300
And the host of the most popular podcast in the world for women must be canceled today, unfortunately.
00:00:29.400
All of that and more today on the Matt Walsh Show.

00:02:11.520
More than two years after the release of my film, What is a Woman?
00:02:15.240
It's still impossible to get a straight answer to that question from gender activists, liberal professors, political commentators, really anyone on the left.
00:02:23.700
They might call you weird for asking the question or call you a transphobe or call the police.
00:02:28.340
But whatever they do, they won't respond in any meaningful way to a question that throughout all of human history up until very recently
00:02:34.060
has been extremely easy for every living person to answer.
00:02:38.200
And they won't tell you the truth, which is that a woman is an adult human female.
00:02:43.100
Instead, they'll tell you that the definition of a woman is whatever you want it to be, whatever they want it to be.
00:02:48.860
One of the many reasons this approach isn't sustainable is that it's extremely important,
00:02:53.380
obviously, from a practical perspective, to have a functional definition of the word woman.
00:02:59.320
This isn't some abstract philosophical exercise.
00:03:02.980
We need a definition of the word woman in order to interpret our laws, including the various pieces of civil rights legislation that have been passed over the years.
00:03:11.640
But despite that fact, there haven't been a lot of court cases addressing this issue head on.
00:03:18.220
Instead, major legal battles concerning gender ideology have primarily focused on the area of so-called trans medicine.
00:03:24.380
And the legal issues in those cases, including the landmark Sixth Circuit case upholding Tennessee's ban on child castration,
00:03:31.080
are about the degree of supposed consensus in the medical field on the issue of whether children should be sterilized.
00:03:37.480
And they're about the rights of parents to decide what physicians do to their children.
00:03:41.240
But they're not really about this fundamental underlying issue, which is the most basic question of all,
00:03:47.880
which is what it means for someone to be a woman or a man.
00:03:55.280
Courts overseas are being forced to issue rulings on the definition of womanhood.
00:03:59.260
And unsurprisingly, they are, in many cases, having difficulty conjuring up the right answer.
00:04:05.720
They're coming up with political rulings instead.
00:04:09.480
The most recent case arrives to us from the perpetually confused country known as Australia,
00:04:14.080
where the federal court has just made a landmark decision in a lawsuit by a man who claims to be a woman
00:04:26.780
In February of 2021, Roxanne Tickle downloaded an app called Giggle for Girls,
00:04:32.760
which was advertised as a way for women to speak to other women exclusively.
00:04:37.960
It was specifically promoted as an online refuge by Giggle's CEO,
00:04:42.980
who said that she created the app as a kind of a safe environment for women
00:04:46.920
after she suffered some form of sexual abuse in the past.
00:04:49.480
So, yes, this case is quite literally Tickle v. Giggle.
00:04:54.940
It may sound like an episode of Teletubbies, but it is actually a real court case in Australia.
00:05:01.180
Now, initially, an AI program at Giggle looked at Roxanne Tickle's profile picture
00:05:12.660
But a few, I mean, how can you talk about this and take it seriously when you have to say sentences like Tickle was allowed into Giggle?
00:05:23.000
A few months later, somebody at Giggle took a closer look and concluded that Roxanne Tickle was, in fact, a man
00:05:29.280
and that this fact was blindingly obvious to anybody who looked at his picture.
00:05:34.440
So, Roxanne Tickle was banned from Giggle, which led him to sue the company for sex discrimination.
00:05:43.540
Now, Australia's federal court decided that Tickle, which this is the person now, not the app,
00:05:52.720
So, the app, Giggle, has to pay tens of thousands of dollars in fake damages.
00:05:58.800
And Giggle, in case you're looking to download it, is apparently offline at the moment,
00:06:03.040
although it's supposed to relaunch again sometime soon.
00:06:06.520
At its peak, it had around 20,000 users, so it was never a particularly large platform.
00:06:10.180
Now, it's impossible to go any further in discussing this case without showing some footage
00:06:14.600
of what Roxanne Tickle actually looks and sounds like.
00:06:18.560
So, here's a news report that gives you some idea.
00:06:23.740
The federal court has ruled the exclusion of a transgender woman from a female-only app
00:06:31.180
In 2021, Roxanne Tickle joined the social network Giggle for Girls,
00:06:37.660
Her identity was initially verified by the app, but was later restricted by a manual override.
00:06:44.440
Giggle's CEO, Sal Grover, denied discriminatory conduct.
00:06:48.580
However, Justice Robert Bromwich today found indirect gender identity discrimination had occurred.
00:06:57.940
and I hope it is healing for trans and gender-diverse people.
00:07:02.440
The ruling shows that all women are protected from discrimination.
00:07:11.640
I mean, it looks very much like the sort of person who would choose the name Roxanne Tickle for himself.
00:07:17.620
And this is one of those situations where, you know,
00:07:21.200
you obviously don't need a 50,000-word federal court decision
00:07:25.940
to figure out if Roxanne Tickle is a man or a woman.
00:07:29.940
So, how exactly did the Australian federal court arrive at their decision?
00:07:37.400
By what definition of woman does Roxanne Tickle qualify, according to them?
00:07:42.620
Now, if you pull up the decision, not surprisingly,
00:07:45.040
you're not going to find an answer to that question.
00:07:46.920
Instead, you'll find what appears to be the first major court decision
00:07:49.700
that officially defines woman to mean whatever the court says it means.
00:07:55.900
sex is not confined to being a biological concept,
00:07:58.140
referring to whether a person at birth had male or female physical traits,
00:08:01.320
nor confined to being a binary concept, limited to the male or female sex,
00:08:05.000
but rather takes a broader ordinary meaning informed by its use,
00:08:11.540
Now, I should pause here and let you know what you probably already assumed,
00:08:14.000
which is that, you know, the court just claimed that there are more sexes besides male and female,
00:08:18.560
but never at any point does the court name what those other sexes are.
00:08:24.400
In fact, out of all the people who tell us that there are more than two sexes,
00:08:28.040
precisely none of them have ever told us what the other sexes are.
00:08:35.840
If it's not just binary, there's at least a third, so name me the third.
00:08:51.120
the determination of the sex of a person may take into account a range of factors,
00:08:54.580
including biological and physical characteristics, legal recognition,
00:08:57.380
and how they present themselves and are recognized socially.
00:09:01.620
So, in other words, according to the federal court in Australia,
00:09:04.180
legislation and legal recognition determines your sex now,
00:09:10.880
including what other people think you are and how you present yourself.
00:09:17.500
then you're probably a woman, is what they're saying.
00:09:18.960
Of course, the problem is that if the definition of woman is
00:09:30.240
What is the thing that they're being recognized as?
00:09:38.260
that the society can't define you and all that kind of stuff.
00:09:43.180
the court never polled all of Australia for its opinion
00:09:46.600
on whether Roxanne Tickle qualifies as a woman.
00:09:51.900
So, really, the court never determined that Tickle was recognized socially as a woman.
00:09:59.540
In truth, what the court is saying is that Roxanne Tickle is a woman
00:10:05.380
They're not conducting any social analysis of how people perceive this person.
00:10:09.520
Not that an analysis like that would be relevant anyway,
00:10:13.700
Specifically, the court said that back in 1984,
00:10:15.840
Australia's parliament passed a law called the Sex Discrimination Act,
00:10:20.640
But the law never explicitly defined the word woman
00:10:22.600
because everybody knew what it meant at the time.
00:10:31.300
the court unilaterally says that you're a woman
00:10:34.740
after weighing a few factors that the court invented.
00:10:44.040
And although the court still cannot say what a woman is,
00:10:50.380
In effect, Australians are being commanded by their court system
00:10:55.880
which is informed by their knowledge of basic human biology.
00:10:59.520
They're being asked to ignore their own laws as well.
00:11:03.440
And instead, they're commanded to obey the ad hoc wisdom
00:11:12.680
This decision is going to be appealed to Australia's highest court.
00:11:15.200
But at the moment, that's the precedent that has just been set.
00:11:19.040
Now, we don't have any kind of landmark cases like this
00:11:23.400
But courts in this country are still proceeding
00:11:27.580
This is a case that the Daily Mail first reported on last month,
00:11:30.360
although it's just starting to get attention now.
00:11:36.860
because they refused to pretend that he was really a girl.
00:11:39.920
Apparently, the teenager went through a difficult breakup
00:11:42.680
with his girlfriend and attempted suicide in November of 2021.
00:11:45.760
He told his friends at the time that he was LGBT,
00:11:49.520
but still used masculine pronouns as far as anyone knew.
00:11:53.220
But instead of treating this teenager as an individual
00:11:58.280
and probably other emotional and mental health problems as well,
00:12:03.220
instead of that, Children's National Hospital in Washington, D.C.
00:12:06.760
reportedly determined that the boy suffered from gender dysphoria
00:12:13.620
Now, it's not clear how they came to that conclusion
00:12:15.500
or how much the hospital influenced that diagnosis.
00:12:22.960
used its emergency policies to keep the boy in its unit
00:12:26.260
and reported the parents to child protective services.
00:12:32.140
at which point the child was then forced into foster care
00:12:38.980
And then in July of 2022, the boy attempted suicide again.
00:12:42.820
And this time, the hospital took him back as a, quote, unquote, girl.
00:12:47.260
Now the boy's parents are suing Children's National Hospital
00:12:50.180
and the legal battle is apparently still underway.
00:12:56.160
And there's conflicting information about whether this lawsuit is still active.
00:12:59.040
The hospital told the Daily Mail that it's been withdrawn by the parents.
00:13:03.280
The court filings in this case are sealed because it involves a minor.
00:13:06.440
But reportedly, the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals is now handling it.
00:13:11.400
But as it stands now, the lawsuit focuses extensively
00:13:14.460
on the hospital's non-gendered chaplain, Lavender Kelly,
00:13:19.440
who's supposedly overseeing their child's care.
00:13:22.140
In fact, Kelly is reportedly responsible for finding the child his first foster home.
00:13:29.640
Well, here's a photo of a, quote, unquote, Lavender Kelly.
00:13:34.920
And surprising absolutely no one, Kelly is a gender ideologue and an LGBT activist.
00:13:43.240
The Daily Mail reports that Lavender Kelly posted on Facebook in 2022
00:13:46.200
that children should be transitioned without their parents' consent if necessary.
00:13:51.120
And you might be wondering what a children's hospital,
00:13:57.880
who's clearly focused more on activism than medicine.
00:14:00.700
But as we know, many children's hospitals, including Children's National,
00:14:08.980
if you're remembering this institution from a couple of years ago,
00:14:12.560
this is the same hospital that told Libs of TikTok on the phone
00:14:15.940
that they perform, quote, gender-affirming hysterectomies on 16-year-olds and, quote, younger kids.
00:14:21.880
That's an act of barbarism that even so-called trans health care providers, quote, unquote,
00:14:27.080
many of them typically shy away from, at least in public.
00:14:30.540
Because publicly, it's too much, even for them.
00:14:33.980
But it's not too much for Children's National and their non-gendered chaplain.
00:14:38.980
This is the kind of hospital that apparently gets to decide
00:14:41.260
whether the government can take your child from you.
00:14:45.520
Now, the only way that horror stories like this happen
00:14:47.940
is if courts allow them to happen unilaterally.
00:14:52.080
There's no law in this country that allows hospitals to take your son away
00:14:55.660
because the hospital says your son is really a girl.
00:14:57.860
Just like there's no law in Australia that says a woman is anyone who says they're a woman.
00:15:02.660
But courts increasingly have no problem inventing new laws to this effect out of the blue
00:15:12.280
Rather than answering the question, what is a woman?
00:15:14.580
The judicial system is punishing people who actually have a working definition.
00:15:18.600
It's taking their kids away in some cases and doing it to very little fanfare.
00:15:23.880
As I said, that story of Maryland broke last month
00:15:26.160
and it's only now really starting to circulate in social media from what I've seen.
00:15:30.560
What that means is that as easy as it may be to hope
00:15:35.160
that Australia's completely unscientific and arbitrary understanding of gender
00:15:42.060
the truth is that in at least one case so far, it already has been.
00:15:56.060

All right, so yesterday we released a sneak peek of another scene of my new film, Am I Racist,
00:17:19.180
And in this scene, you'll get a look at my experience at a race-to-dinner event.
00:17:23.960
And race-to-dinner is something, if you've never heard of it, run by two women,
00:17:29.880
And the whole idea is that white women pay these two other ladies to come to dinner and
00:17:36.100
call them racist for two hours, which, you know, if that sounds like a splendid time to
00:17:42.380
you, well then, as far as I know, race-to-dinner is still running, so you can set up your own
00:17:48.240
Now, I was not able to attend the dinner because I'm not a woman, and that is actually a rule
00:17:56.340
Of course, you know, as we know, as we just covered, they couldn't tell you what a woman
00:18:02.500
So, you know, I had to find some other way to get in the room.
00:18:08.280
And really, you know, I wanted to earn my seat at the table as part of this journey that
00:18:14.620
I was on in the film and am still on, as you know.
00:18:19.340
And so in this scene, you'll see it's not the entire race-to-dinner experience, but it's
00:18:24.720
a little chunk of it, and you will see, crucially, the moment when I do, in fact, earn my seat
00:18:31.420
at the table, whether the other people at the table like it or not.
00:18:34.680
I used to be a white woman, an unsuccessful one, for many decades, and it was a miserable
00:18:42.160
And really, the hatred of yourselves and each other is, like, the most, the not seeing your
00:18:49.800
Like, all you do is talk about each other, talk about yourself.
00:19:00.120
It's, I'm so fat, I'm so stupid, I'm blah, blah, blah.
00:19:11.420
Your kids are watching you, and they're watching you talking about each other, you know, raging
00:19:17.020
against the machine or being silent or whatever the hell it is that you're doing or not doing,
00:19:38.460
Okay, I do have my, I have my DEI certification that I, that I got.
00:19:43.280
So, not saying I'm an expert, but I'm also not a novice, so, okay.
00:19:49.620
White people are starved for these conversations.
00:19:59.880
I'm so glad we can have these conversations, and I'll, and I'll be done.
00:20:02.340
But, uh, I'm just so glad that we could all get together to have these conversations.
00:20:11.740
Can you let us, we're trying to listen and trying to have this conversation.
00:20:14.840
Okay, you know, we're all acting all the time in our lives, and, uh, and I think that that's
00:20:23.660
That it's like we're all trying to play a part rather than just being real and having
00:20:28.620
And that's what I'm always trying to tell people, especially, you know, white women.
00:20:34.920
There's power positions, and, uh, you know, it's, uh, pointing, pointing, white people
00:20:43.840
You know, I've been on this journey for so long, and just to see you guys at the table
00:20:47.860
having this conversation has been really enlightening for me.
00:20:52.260
Anyway, got the DEI certification, and I'm just on the journey.
00:21:08.380
Do your own white supremacy dismantling, and then you can start to bring in other people.
00:21:20.540
Uh, I mean, just raise a glass if you're racist, and that's the thing.
00:21:41.560
Um, good, you know, nice toast at the end there.
00:21:45.320
I was glad that they would take part in that with me.
00:21:48.060
I don't have much, I don't want to say much else about the scene, because I want you to
00:21:50.700
watch the movie and see it, and so I'm not going to explain anything else.
00:21:53.560
Um, it does, if that was painfully uncomfortable, then the entire experience is even more so.
00:22:02.560
Only thing I will stress, again, is that, uh, yes, this is all real.
00:22:06.200
Race to dinner is a real thing, and those women are really attending.
00:22:10.320
Uh, there are no actors in the clip, except for me, as I was accused of being anyway.
00:22:17.600
I went, you know, we, this, we went into these environments in, in real life, and, uh, everything
00:22:27.940
Um, and, uh, as it might be, it's hard to believe some of it.
00:22:32.540
It's hard to believe, especially that events like that can even exist.
00:22:37.020
It's like, you, you see that, and you think, well, that's, there's no way that that looks
00:22:41.560
like something from, you know, it's a, you can see it as a scene in a movie, but people
00:22:46.740
That's a, that's a real, those people really exist.
00:22:54.240
All right, the, uh, the big political news on Friday, RFK Jr. endorsed Donald Trump.
00:22:59.440
He, uh, came out of a rally in Arizona and threw his support behind Trump.
00:23:12.020
Uh, I will guess, I would guess that it would help him noticeably, significantly.
00:23:20.160
Not large enough for him to have won himself, but certainly large enough, I would think, to
00:23:26.420
be a real asset to Trump when added to Trump's much larger following.
00:23:30.860
But I've also said many times that I'm backing out of the political prediction game.
00:23:35.540
I'm not making any official political predictions.
00:23:38.400
I, I, uh, I especially don't want to officially predict that RFK Jr.
00:23:44.860
will help put Trump over the top because my predictions are always wrong.
00:23:48.980
So if I officially predict that, it's not going to happen.
00:23:51.720
Um, I would only say that from my vantage point, it seems rather clear that,
00:23:56.420
his support will, um, will, will be a very big help.
00:24:01.720
Now, RFK Jr.'s family, his siblings, I think, seem to be worried that he's, that this is going
00:24:10.720
to help Trump in a big way, which is why they put out, uh, a statement after RFK Jr.'s
00:24:17.080
endorsement condemning, condemning, condemning him for it, um, and saying that, uh, that
00:24:24.420
RFK Jr.'s endorsement of, of, uh, of Trump is a betrayal of the family.
00:24:31.620
It's a, a sad story, uh, and all these kinds of other things.
00:24:37.200
Um, so first, before we talk about that, actually, RFK Jr.
00:24:41.280
himself responded to his family condemning him on Fox News yesterday.
00:24:47.880
This decision is not without personal cost for you.
00:24:50.900
Um, your own family went to the White House on St. Patrick's Day, took a huge picture with
00:24:54.460
President Biden, made clear who they were supporting.
00:24:56.860
Friday night, your siblings issued this statement.
00:25:00.480
Our brother Bobby's decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father
00:25:06.700
You posted on X Friday night saying, uh, you're grateful to your amazing wife because the decision
00:25:11.300
that you've, uh, made is one that she's uncomfortable with.
00:25:14.080
So talk to us about the personal backlash you have to deal with.
00:25:18.620
Yeah, I mean, you know, my family is at the center of the Democratic Party.
00:25:23.220
I have five members of my family that are working for the Biden administration.
00:25:28.300
President Biden has a, a, um, a bust of my father behind him at the Oval Office.
00:25:34.460
He's been a family friend for many, many years.
00:25:36.580
And, and my family is, I understand that they're troubled by my decisions, but, you know, I love
00:25:45.440
I feel like we were raised in a milieu where we were encouraged to debate each other and
00:25:52.400
debate ferociously and passionately about things, but to still love each other.
00:25:56.700
So, you know, they can, um, they're free to take their positions on these issues.
00:26:02.240
There are many, many members of my family who are working in my campaign, who are supporting
00:26:13.400
But, you know, I think we all need to be able to disagree with each other and still love
00:26:21.220
And one thing I'll say about RFK Jr. is that he, he seems like a decent person.
00:26:26.380
I disagree still with many of his political views because he's, he's still quite liberal
00:26:33.460
on most things, but he gets some very important things, right?
00:26:38.200
And he seems like a good guy and a, and a morally and politically courageous person as
00:26:45.680
His siblings, on the other hand, are a bunch of disgusting, slimy, gutless snakes.
00:26:51.400
I mean, attacking your own brother publicly because of a political disagreement is just
00:26:59.160
I, I'm trying to imagine a situation where it would actually be justified and necessary
00:27:06.800
to denounce a member of your own family publicly.
00:27:11.800
I'm sure there are scenarios where, where that would be justified.
00:27:15.620
But off the top of my head, I can't think of anything.
00:27:17.460
Off the top of my head, I cannot think of a scenario where it would actually be okay
00:27:22.840
or necessary to come out publicly and denounce your own family member.
00:27:25.540
Now, I can imagine plenty of actually terrible things a member of your family could do.
00:27:31.460
But even in those situations, do you need to publicly denounce them for it?
00:27:37.660
Um, and certainly if we can come up with scenarios where that might be necessary, uh, you know,
00:27:48.580
your brother endorsing someone you don't like for president definitely isn't one of those
00:27:53.460
scenarios because there should be almost nothing that would make you turn your back on your
00:28:01.660
family publicly, which isn't to say that you can't, um, doesn't mean that you have to publicly
00:28:07.380
agree with everything that somebody in your family does.
00:28:09.420
It doesn't even mean that you can't, uh, publicly disagree necessarily with positions that they
00:28:18.240
And, uh, and the funny thing is that they accuse RFK Jr. of betrayal, but that's exactly what
00:28:23.940
this is. RFK Jr. having the political views that they don't agree with.
00:28:31.580
He's, he's his own man, but denouncing your brother publicly, that is a betrayal of just
00:28:37.940
the lowest kind, just absolutely despicable behavior.
00:28:45.480
Um, but overall, uh, very good news for Trump that RFK Jr. is, uh, on his team.
00:28:52.060
Um, let's move to something not so good for Trump, actually quite bad.
00:28:58.300
Uh, Trump posted this on truth social on Friday.
00:29:01.100
This was, uh, just really a couple of hours before the RFK Jr. endorsement.
00:29:05.020
He posted this, my administration will be great for women and their reproductive rights.
00:29:27.400
Um, there's no way to approach this that makes it seem like the right thing.
00:29:34.540
Now, first of all, on, on, on the merits, morally speaking, we should never be legitimizing
00:29:42.680
Um, so-called reproductive rights is an idea invented by baby killers for baby killers to
00:29:52.100
Um, and before the baby killing movement, nobody was going around talking about reproductive
00:29:58.680
So this is a concept that was invented purely for one reason and one reason only, which is
00:30:06.100
to justify the murder of babies and morally you cannot legitimize it or offer any support
00:30:11.540
But, you know, there will be people on the right.
00:30:14.380
I know who, who, um, will hear me say that make the moral argument.
00:30:19.640
And they'll say that they'll say that I'm being a purist, right?
00:30:21.560
That I'm engaged in some kind of, uh, this is, this is a purity.
00:30:26.920
I'm going to, I'm in a purity spiral right now because I'm saying this and they'll say,
00:30:31.380
Hey, we have to win an election and I need to get off my high horse because this is politics.
00:30:44.020
He can't enact pro-life policies unless he gets an office and he has to get an office.
00:30:47.100
And so you got to do what you got to do to get there.
00:30:53.420
And politically, I'm, that argument is persuasive to me in most cases, if it's true, right?
00:31:05.060
If it's true that there's, you know, there's like a game, you got to, there's a game you
00:31:10.200
There's a line you got to walk just so you can get into office and then do all the things
00:31:17.180
Um, if it's true that, so that's, that's compelling to me.
00:31:22.740
And what I mean is there'd be very few cases where I would just say, you know what, even
00:31:29.360
if it's politically suicidal, uh, I need the candidate to say this or take this position
00:31:38.380
No, I'm well aware that in a political campaign, of course, politics matters.
00:31:44.680
Um, you could say it's like when it comes down to it, it's all that matters because if you
00:31:48.740
don't win, you have to win, you have to win first.
00:31:50.800
And if you don't win and nothing else matters politically.
00:31:53.480
But the problem is that this isn't good politics either.
00:32:03.760
So politically, what do you achieve by endorsing reproductive rights?
00:32:14.240
Let's start with this, just basic reality here.
00:32:17.840
The vast majority of women who will only vote for a pro-abortion candidate are not going
00:32:28.720
Trump could hold a campaign inside of Planned Parenthood.
00:32:32.120
He could, he could be inside one holding a campaign.
00:32:36.840
He could kick JD Vance off the ticket and put the, the CEO of Planned Parenthood as the new
00:32:43.780
And it wouldn't matter for the vast majority of these kinds of voters.
00:32:50.880
And if they care that much about abortion, well, then why vote for Trump when, when you
00:32:55.960
could just vote for a lifelong pro-abortion woman, right?
00:33:01.080
So for the vast majority of these voters who care that much about abortion, like you have
00:33:04.460
Kamala Harris, you can't out abortion Kamala Harris.
00:33:09.520
If anyone cares that much about abortion rights or quote unquote reproductive rights, there's
00:33:14.420
no reason why they wouldn't just vote for Kamala.
00:33:18.960
Now she's not the real deal on like anything else, but on abortion, she loves it.
00:33:24.960
When she talks about how she spent her whole life protecting abortion rights, that's actually
00:33:31.500
So, um, for the majority of these kinds of voters, they have Kamala Harris, right?
00:33:42.060
You can't, you're not going to siphon off votes by, by, uh, uh, just saying the phrase
00:33:50.240
Because the, almost everyone who's impressed with that phrase, they have Kamala Harris.
00:33:58.980
Again, this is when she was attorney general of California, she actively defended Planned
00:34:05.520
Parenthood as they were selling the body parts of murdered children.
00:34:09.260
And she sent in law enforcement officers to arrest the journalists who exposed it.
00:34:14.620
I mean, that's how much this woman believes in, uh, in child sacrifice.
00:34:18.660
So that's the case for the huge majority of pro-abortion voters.
00:34:24.740
You cannot win them, period, no matter what you say about abortion.
00:34:28.600
Okay, well, like, we got to start with that reality.
00:34:33.060
Um, what about the people closer to the middle?
00:34:35.700
You know, what about the voters who generally like Trump, don't like Kamala, but they also
00:34:45.280
Because that's really what we're talking about.
00:34:46.800
That, that, when you, when you make a play, when Trump comes out and says, I'm, I'm for
00:34:50.660
reproductive rights, you're making a play for a very specific voter.
00:34:57.560
It has to be a voter who, again, generally likes Trump, or at least is okay with him, generally
00:35:02.140
doesn't like Kamala, but cares about so-called reproductive rights.
00:35:09.280
That's the whole demo that you're potentially appealing to.
00:35:17.400
I, I mean, I, I'm not going to say that that group doesn't exist.
00:35:20.920
I think it does exist, but I'm not sure I've ever personally met in my life the voter who
00:35:28.560
would vote for Trump if not for the abortion issue.
00:35:35.240
I, I've never spoken to one or met one in my entire life.
00:35:45.360
Well, the question is, first of all, are they going to even buy Trump's sudden passion for
00:35:56.460
Are these people more numerous than the pro-life voters that you alienate with this kind of
00:36:05.080
In other words, does Trump end up with a net gain making a play like this?
00:36:10.700
Does he gain enough of the pro-Trump, pro-abortion vote, wherever the hell that vote exists, does
00:36:21.340
he gain enough of that vote to make up for the pro-life voters that are just like utterly
00:36:27.740
demoralized and alienated by the Republican presidential candidate endorsing reproductive
00:36:44.080
Politically, the risk of coming out for quote unquote reproductive rights is that the small
00:36:48.620
number of people you might win over with a tweet like that will be dwarfed by the voters
00:36:57.620
And sure, a certain portion of the demoralized voters will still vote for you because they
00:37:03.100
recognize, rightly so, that you're still a lot better than Kamala Harris, but some of
00:37:10.920
I mean, demoralized voters, that's not what you want, right, on election day.
00:37:16.900
So that's, so again, just looking at this politically, I mean, you can't, if your answer
00:37:24.760
is, hey, it's politics, man, stop with the purity stuff, I think it's bad politics.
00:37:28.780
I think it's bad morally, I think it's bad politics.
00:37:37.200
Now, all that said, it is true in a literal sense that conservatives and pro-lifers support
00:37:47.680
If we were to actually define both of those words the way that they are really defined,
00:37:57.380
reproductive and rights, and we were to understand the term reproductive rights correctly in a
00:38:03.340
definitional sense, then it would be true that actually, yeah, as a pro-lifer, we believe
00:38:11.700
in reproductive rights, because understood correctly, reproductive rights must mean two
00:38:19.980
First, the right of a woman to decide when she reproduces, and yeah, we affirm that, right?
00:38:28.120
A woman should never be forced to reproduce, because reproduction happens at conception.
00:38:35.380
And biologically and scientifically, reproduction is conception.
00:38:40.020
That's when reproduction occurs, which is why abortion actually has nothing to do with
00:38:46.420
reproductive rights, so-called, because reproduction's already happened.
00:38:53.060
No pro-lifer believes that a woman should be forced to conceive, but once she does conceive,
00:38:59.900
once reproduction has already happened, you cannot kill the human that has been produced.
00:39:05.400
And if you do, you're not exercising reproductive rights.
00:39:14.780
Which is why, as I've explained many times, when a woman gives birth, okay, we don't say
00:39:22.480
at the moment of birth that that is reproduction.
00:39:34.540
I mean, you can't give birth unless you've already reproduced.
00:39:36.960
There has to be, you know, a person there to give birth to.
00:39:42.500
So reproductive rights could mean that if we were like an honest country and we used words
00:39:49.880
You could also talk about reproductive rights from the vantage point of the child.
00:39:53.840
That the child that has been produced, the child that is the result of reproduction,
00:40:02.880
So you could mean reproductive rights that way.
00:40:05.980
And either of those senses of the term would be valid, definitionally.
00:40:11.460
Much more valid than the way that the term is used by the pro-abortion side.
00:40:15.780
But the problem is that, like, that's not right now what people mean when they say it.
00:40:23.760
Now, I would love if we could reclaim the term reproductive rights on the basis that I've
00:40:30.940
So that 10 years from now, when you use the term reproductive rights, everyone understands
00:40:41.880
So if you just say, I believe in reproductive rights, and leave it at that with no further
00:40:47.040
explanation, 100% of everyone hears that and interprets it as, oh, you favor abortion.
00:40:55.580
So if you want to make the case, if you want to make this kind of case about reproductive
00:41:02.780
You can't just leave it at one sentence, reproductive rights.
00:41:06.700
Not the right road to be traveling down here at all.
00:41:17.140
NASA decided Saturday it's too risky to bring two astronauts back to Earth and Boeing's troubled
00:41:22.640
They'll have to wait until next year for a ride home with SpaceX.
00:41:25.880
What should have been a week-long test flight for the pair will now last more than eight
00:41:30.200
The seasoned pilots have been stuck at the International Space Station since the beginning
00:41:34.240
A cascade of vexing thruster failures and helium leaks in the new capsule marred their trip to
00:41:39.800
And they ended up in a holding pattern as engineers conducted tests and debated what
00:41:45.340
AP correspondent Julie Walker reports NASA will bring stranded Boeing Starliner astronauts
00:41:51.760
SpaceX, after almost three months, the decision finally came down from NASA's highest ranks
00:41:55.900
on Saturday that they were going to come back at a SpaceX capsule in February.
00:42:09.300
Or they will, when all is said and done, they will be trapped up in a space station for
00:42:13.520
You know, one of the really interesting things about this, one of the many interesting things
00:42:18.600
when you think about these astronauts trapped in the space station, is that you have to consider
00:42:27.580
what a day actually is on the International Space Station.
00:42:32.440
Because we think of a day as a 24-hour period, but that's relative, of course.
00:42:36.200
A day is only a 24-hour period on Earth, because of the Earth's rotation on its axis.
00:42:49.360
And, you know, so in a 24-hour period, you'll experience, if you're on Earth, one sunset and
00:42:58.500
But on the space station, you actually orbit the Earth 16 times in a 24-hour period.
00:43:06.740
So you experience 16 sunrises, which means that, in effect, these astronauts will not
00:43:12.920
be in the space station for 240 days or whatever eight months is.
00:43:17.400
They'll actually be on the space station for closer to 4,000 days from their perspective.
00:43:22.560
Because that's how many, essentially, that's how many sunrises they're going to experience
00:43:33.720
Because the space station is traveling like 17,000 miles an hour around the Earth.
00:43:39.160
And to put that in perspective, a commercial airline travels about 500, 600 miles an hour
00:43:44.860
So the space station's going about 30 times faster than a commercial aircraft will travel
00:43:55.400
And yet, you know, even traveling 17,000 miles an hour, that's basically a snail's pace in
00:44:03.300
Like a craft that's going that speed would take, I don't know, many, many centuries to
00:44:10.860
make it to the nearest solar system outside of our own.
00:44:13.940
That's about four light years, a light year, light travels at 670 million miles an hour.
00:44:21.100
And it takes four years at 670 million miles an hour.
00:44:26.360
So how long would it take at 17,000 miles an hour?
00:44:29.260
I don't know, but I can't do that math, but it's a long, long time.
00:44:33.160
And that's kind of the point for me with this story, that we are just so unfathomably far
00:44:39.400
from being an advanced civilization in galactic terms.
00:44:42.700
If an actually advanced civilization that can traverse space and visit other solar systems
00:44:48.740
and so on, if they were to look at us with our clunky little space station, you know,
00:44:54.760
crawling around the Earth, basically, they would view us the way that we view jungle tribes
00:45:04.380
And that's why, even though these astronauts are stranded on a space station that is, I mean,
00:45:11.640
Again, in galactic terms, it's a stone's throw.
00:45:13.640
It's right, it's, you know, it's like across this room, practically, in cosmic terms.
00:45:19.100
But still, it's a monumental feat and will take eight months just to bring them home from the space station.
00:45:27.840
And I don't mean that to diminish what we've achieved in space.
00:45:31.220
I just mean to emphasize how gargantuan a thing this really is, you know, to really get out into space.
00:45:39.480
That's why I always think it's dumb when, and I don't want to, you know, open up this can of worms again.
00:45:46.020
Or I don't really care if I do, to be honest with you.
00:45:47.920
But when you hear, as people so often say, well, we went to the moon in the 60s, why aren't we on Mars by now?
00:45:57.660
And sometimes you hear that sentiment just generally, but oftentimes you hear that from people that are trying to claim that the moon landing never happened.
00:46:03.920
This is like their number one piece of evidence is, we went in the 60s, why aren't we somewhere?
00:46:25.620
Okay, so that's why it takes a lot longer to figure out how to get there.
00:46:34.920
I think it would take, I think the round trip is two or three years.
00:46:41.260
Being exposed to all the radiation and deep space.
00:46:45.020
All these, I mean, it's just, it's like a suicide mission.
00:46:47.920
So it's a bit like if somebody walks to the house across the street, and then you wonder why they also haven't walked to Brazil.
00:47:00.520
And this is how, this is how long progress takes.
00:47:13.260
We, we basically just invented the wheel a few decades ago.
00:47:20.400
Getting to your own moon is inventing the wheel in, in terms of space travel.
00:47:28.680
So, another analogy would be like finding a primitive society that just invented the wheel, and then checking back 50 years later, and expecting that they have sports cars, right?
00:47:46.160
It could take thousands of more years before we can really travel through space in any real significant way.
00:47:56.960
My new film, The Daily Wire's first ever theatrical release, Am I Racist, is about to hit theaters on September 13th.
00:48:02.040
And we have already more than doubled the number of theaters nationwide since we announced it.
00:48:06.860
Your advance ticket purchases are making the left very, very nervous.
00:48:10.140
Every ticket sold right now in theaters that are already showing the film helps push it into even more theaters across the country.
00:48:17.260
You're officially part of the vast right-wing conspiracy to bring common sense back to America.
00:48:22.480
In Am I Racist, I teamed up with the same group of white guys who blew up the leftist gender theory in What Is Woman.
00:48:30.020
What we've uncovered is both hilarious and enraging.
00:48:32.980
Well, the response to advance tickets has been amazing, but we're not done yet.
00:48:36.440
If Am I Racist is playing at a theater near you, head on over to miracist.com and grab your tickets in advance today.
00:48:51.500
Well, I hope that you in the audience appreciate the sacrifices that I make for you.
00:48:57.940
Much of what I do for you is off camera, out of sight, in the shadows, in silence.
00:49:04.760
I don't come to you asking for a pat on the back for it.
00:49:10.580
But this time I am, because I have just endured potentially the greatest suffering that I think any man in this century has ever endured.
00:49:19.520
And I did it all just so that I could record this very segment.
00:49:23.900
I listened to an entire episode of the podcast, Call Her Daddy.
00:49:30.680
It was like two-thirds of an episode at 1.8 speed.
00:49:36.360
Now, in case you aren't familiar, Call Her Daddy is a hugely successful podcast hosted by a woman named Alex Cooper.
00:49:42.200
And it's so successful that Cooper, just last week, signed a $125 million deal with Sirius to move her show over to their platform.
00:49:49.660
The show, which focuses on sex and relationship discussions, is massively popular with young women in particular.
00:49:56.300
And the reason I'm bringing it up is because of a short clip from a recent episode that has generated some conversation on social media.
00:50:01.580
But in order for me to talk about the clip, you know, I felt that I needed to understand the context, which is why I listened to most of the episode that the clip comes from.
00:50:10.800
So before I play it for you, I will give you the bullet points from this episode.
00:50:15.800
Actually, it turned out that the context really was not needed.
00:50:20.220
But I didn't listen to all that for nothing, so I'm going to tell you anyway.
00:50:23.880
In this episode, Alex recounts the very long story of how she once flew to Paris to meet up with some guy that she met on a dating app.
00:50:32.740
And it takes her about 45 hours, or felt that way, to tell this whole story, but I can summarize it in like 45 seconds.
00:50:42.820
He wasn't as attractive in person as he was in his profile picture.
00:50:49.060
But she stayed with him for a week anyway and had sex with him, which she initiated.
00:50:52.660
There were other indignities that she suffered and which she describes in agonizing detail.
00:50:57.420
For example, the toilet in their Airbnb didn't flush properly, so she had to hold down the flusher for 10 seconds.
00:51:03.340
Truly the sort of trial and tribulation that few humans on Earth can comprehend.
00:51:08.040
After a week of this sort of torture, she left.
00:51:10.880
And later, she found out that the guy gave her an STD.
00:51:18.280
She went to spend a week in Paris with a guy that she didn't know and had sex with him,
00:51:21.640
even though she didn't know him or even like him.
00:51:28.560
And more confusingly, why in God's name would anyone willingly by choice listen to it?
00:51:36.040
But it is deeply troubling to consider that apparently millions of young women sit around listening to this person
00:51:41.980
drone on and on and on about her incredibly dull, uninteresting sexual exploits,
00:51:49.320
even when there's no discernible point at the end of it.
00:51:51.820
And she never offers anything approaching an actual insight.
00:51:56.840
Women who spend their time listening to this sort of tripe cannot complain about men who watch porn
00:52:04.960
It's the same poison in your brain, just in different forms.
00:52:09.100
So anyway, all of that setup finally brings us to the clip that I want to talk about.
00:52:13.680
Here is where Alex, after taking us through the blandest, most excruciatingly dull adventure of all time,
00:52:20.360
finally answers the one question any intelligent member of the audience might have.
00:52:24.160
And that is, you know, well, that is if there are any intelligent members of the audience.
00:52:28.680
If you didn't like him and you didn't want to be there, why didn't you just go home?
00:52:35.600
I know all of you at home watching this or listening are like, why the didn't I just go home?
00:52:41.660
And I still to this day can't fully articulate why I didn't leave, which sadly I think is so relatable for women.
00:52:57.300
Like, I think as backwards as it sounds, because of how uncomfortable and awkward it was with this person,
00:53:03.720
I didn't know what to do other than stay and suck it up.
00:53:06.620
Like, I didn't want to make the other person feel more uncomfortable.
00:53:11.420
So I tried to, like, appease the situation and make it better.
00:53:14.980
Because staying and being miserable somehow felt easier than, like, pissing someone off and getting in this fight
00:53:21.460
and, like, leaving and acknowledging how awkward it was.
00:53:24.380
And since he wasn't saying anything, I was not going to say anything.
00:53:33.860
Like, I feel like we've all been there where we're like, I didn't really want to do that.
00:53:37.700
But then, like, I didn't know how to get myself out of the situation.
00:53:39.820
And I'm, like, in an apartment with these two men.
00:53:47.840
So it's a $125 million podcast right there, what you just heard.
00:53:55.600
Now, this excuse that she gives, an excuse for shacking up for a week with a guy that she didn't know or like
00:54:01.200
and having sex with him despite being actively repulsed by him, this excuse has resonated with her audience.
00:54:07.160
Many of the Instagram comments under this video are echoing these sentiments that she expresses.
00:54:11.880
They claim that it is, in fact, very relatable for women, as she says it is.
00:54:15.080
And they say that this is why it's unfair to ask women why they don't leave uncomfortable situations.
00:54:22.560
It's not fair because women don't know how to get themselves out of those situations, according to them.
00:54:28.620
But one woman who is not praising Alex or shouting amen is Mary Morgan.
00:54:34.060
She's a commentator and host of a show called Pop Culture Crisis, which you can and should go find on YouTube.
00:54:40.500
And in a just world, would be the one getting the big money contract from Sirius.
00:54:44.340
She made a very compelling point in response to this video.
00:54:48.980
And then I have a few things I want to say to kind of build off of it.
00:54:51.340
But I want to give her credit for, you know, for originating this insight.
00:54:57.160
She wrote, quote, I can't give you a better explanation for how Me Too came into existence than this video right here.
00:55:03.080
Women's propensity to be highly agreeable paired with a culture that encourages promiscuity.
00:55:09.760
It's unconscionable that young women rely on influencers like this one for moral guidance,
00:55:17.160
Women will say shit like this and wonder why the entire planet and every major religion has imposed strict social restrictions on their sovereignty since the dawn of time in every place humans have ever lived.
00:55:29.460
They need protection from their worst impulses and from men who are dangerous and lecherous.
00:55:32.820
The death of norms like chivalry and chastity has nothing to do with women's emancipation and everything to do with women no longer holding a place of high esteem in our society.
00:55:41.960
Women are no longer regarded as creatures in need of spiritual and physical protection.
00:55:47.600
Now, I don't want to belabor the point, but I have to say that there's more insight in those few sentences than in the entire catalog of call her daddy transcripts combined for as long as the show has existed.
00:56:00.400
And you don't have to agree with everything that Mary said there, but this is someone that's thinking about an issue, working through it, trying to understand where we are in our culture and how we got here.
00:56:11.940
You know, like having a thought about something.
00:56:14.240
Here, I want to share a thought with you that I'm having.
00:56:16.180
That's what, like, if you're going to listen to someone blabber on a podcast like I do on this one every day, that should be your first and most essential requirement.
00:56:26.540
Even if I don't agree, do they have an insight?
00:56:31.780
I can't imagine why anybody would listen, sit and listen to someone on a podcast when the answer to that question is obviously no.
00:56:43.020
So in any case, the thrust of Mary's point is obviously correct.
00:56:46.240
The whole point of chivalry was to protect and honor women.
00:56:51.320
And men stood out in front and took the lead, assuming the role of protector and provider.
00:56:55.700
And they did this because they believed that women should be cherished.
00:56:59.660
Now, our culture today says that women don't need to be protected or provided for or cherished.
00:57:04.300
But the results of this new philosophy have categorically proven the philosophy wrong.
00:57:09.040
And it creates the kind of catch-22 you find in Alex's story or, as Mary pointed out, so many of the tales of woe we heard about during the Me Too era and before that and after it.
00:57:20.460
Because after all, what is Alex really saying here?
00:57:28.460
She needed the man to take the lead, take the initiative, understand the situation, act decisively, and do the thing that she was too scared or too confused to do.
00:57:45.980
Let's book your plane tickets home and get you to the airport.
00:57:49.280
In fact, she really needed the man to take the lead well before that.
00:57:55.760
Let's not plan a vacation together for a week when we don't even know each other.
00:57:59.380
Why don't we start by going out for coffee tomorrow afternoon instead?
00:58:03.360
She is confessing to being too guided by her emotions, too tentative and indecisive,
00:58:08.560
too lacking in assertiveness to say either of those things.
00:58:15.420
But she'll never say that she needed the man to lead because her feminist principles will not allow her to ever utter a statement like that under any circumstance.
00:58:22.540
And this is the same of every other feminist in the country.
00:58:24.880
But the problem is that although they will not say, I need the man to lead, they still expect it.
00:58:30.800
And they still blame him for failing to do it when push comes to shove.
00:58:35.680
And there are too many examples of this dynamic to count.
00:58:38.320
As established, the Me Too era provides us with dozens, if not hundreds.
00:58:41.320
In fact, we see an example of this kind of thing in every case where, let's say, two drunk college students hook up only for one of the drunk participants, always the female one, always, to wake up the next morning and decide that she was raped.
00:59:10.120
Better yet, why can't we admit that neither of them are?
00:59:13.000
They both did something reckless and self-destructive.
00:59:15.380
And now they feel the shame and guilt that a person ought to feel after such an experience.
00:59:19.840
Well, the answer is that all of the people looking at a mutually inebriated sexual encounter between a man and a woman and exclusively blaming the man, which is what literally always happens in these situations, are blaming him because they expect him to lead.
00:59:38.900
They expect him to be the one to take control of the ship and guide it to a safe harbor.
00:59:43.160
They expect him, not her, him, always him, to have the strength and foresight to say, hey, we've both had too much to drink.
00:59:52.900
And if he doesn't say that, he's blamed for his lack of leadership.
01:00:01.540
Because you don't blame a follower for not being led.
01:00:03.960
But all of the people pointing the finger of blame will not acknowledge what they're actually blaming the guy for.
01:00:10.560
Indeed, they'll desperately deny that they want any such thing as him to lead.
01:00:16.140
So the man gets blamed for not doing a thing that the people doing the blaming actually tell him not to do.
01:00:23.280
So first they say, how dare you think that you can lead a woman?
01:00:27.440
And next thing you know, they say, how dare you not lead this woman?
01:00:32.700
Instead, in this case, they would say something like, you're a rapist, now go to prison.
01:00:36.220
Now, the feminists get to have their cake and eat it, too, while the men are stuck with the lose-lose.
01:00:42.780
If the man doesn't take the lead, he's a loser and a creep.
01:00:47.360
If he does, he's a bully, a misogynist, and also a creep.
01:00:51.820
The feminists want us to be a matriarchal, female-led society.
01:00:57.120
But they don't want any of the accountability and blame that comes with that.
01:01:02.500
Which is why you'll notice, right, not a single feminist will listen to that story from Alex Cooper and say to her, you should be ashamed.
01:01:12.220
How could you put that poor, helpless man in that awkward position?
01:01:17.080
In fact, Alex says that she initiated sex with a guy who clearly wasn't that into it.
01:01:24.120
So if the feminists were consistent, they would accuse her of rape.
01:01:28.320
That's what they would do in the reverse scenario.
01:01:34.300
Because they want the benefits of leadership with none of the responsibility, none of the pressure, none of the blame that comes with it.
01:01:42.680
Okay, it's the burden of leadership that they will not accept, which is why they can never be leaders.
01:01:52.240
And that's why a society that smashes the patriarchy ends up shiftless, stranded, and leaderless.
01:02:04.400
It's a mutiny on the bounty, but played out in an entire civilization instead of just one ship.
01:02:08.980
The mutineers in that story staged a revolt, sent the captain out adrift in the middle of the sea.
01:02:17.200
They have control of the boat now, but there's no one fit to lead it.
01:02:21.360
All they could think about was how much they hated the captain for his leadership style.
01:02:25.280
They never considered what the alternative actually is, or that there really isn't an alternative.
01:02:29.340
Now, the feminists are the mutineers in this case, and they've taken control of a ship that they don't know how to steer, and even if they did, they wouldn't know where to steer it to.
01:02:40.700
They didn't like the idea of the man leading, but as we've discovered, they like the idea of themselves leading even less.
01:02:46.680
That's how you end up with a society in a state of decay like ours.
01:02:52.740
And it's how you end up with a woman like Alex Cooper having an extremely popular podcast.
01:02:59.540
And that is why she is today, I'm afraid to say, canceled.
01:03:07.280
Republicans or Nazis, you cannot separate yourselves from the bad white people.
01:03:21.360
It never really seemed to matter that much, at least not to me.
01:03:28.480
If I'm going to sort this out, I need to go deeper undercover.
01:03:38.760
What you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness.
01:03:46.080
I want to rename the George Washington Monument to the George Floyd Monument.
01:04:06.240
I just had to ask who you are because you have to be careful.
