The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1483 - FEMA's Shocking Anti-Trump Orders Revealed

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Walsh Show, The Daily Wire uncovers a massive scandal at FEMA,

00:00:03.580 where an official in the agency directed relief workers to skip houses with Trump signs out front.

00:00:07.860 Also, Trump begins staffing his next administration. His choices so far give us

00:00:11.940 plenty of reasons for optimism. And scorned Kamala voters are now cutting off their Trump-supporting

00:00:16.820 family members. We'll talk about all that and more today on The Matt Walsh Show.

00:02:10.360 the Matt Walsh show. A month before the presidential election, the people running FEMA decided to venture

00:02:15.960 outside the field of disaster relief and into the completely unrelated, if very trendy, business

00:02:20.780 of policing, quote unquote, disinformation. Of course, policing disinformation isn't what FEMA 1.00

00:02:26.640 is paid to do. It's not why FEMA receives tens of billions of dollars every year from taxpayers. 0.80

00:02:32.360 But in this case, the agency determined that it had no other choice. Disinformation in the eyes of

00:02:36.340 the Federal Emergency Management Agency had become its own kind of emergency. It was a disaster unto

00:02:42.280 itself. Now, to that end, FEMA's director, a woman named Deanne Criswell, who incidentally broke the 0.99

00:02:48.780 glass ceiling to become the first woman to head the agency, announced that FEMA would be conducting 0.97

00:02:53.700 a thorough investigation to, quote, uncover the source of conspiracy theories hampering Hurricane

00:02:58.920 Helene relief efforts. Now, among those conspiracy theories were that FEMA was directing funding to

00:03:05.620 illegal immigrants and that FEMA was withholding assistance to certain demographic groups.

00:03:10.960 As Criswell put it, quote, it's really unfortunate that we try to create this level of fear that is

00:03:15.760 impeding our ability to do our job at the level we need to do it. Now, even if these were baseless

00:03:22.720 conspiracy theories, it was never explained how they could be hampering hurricane relief efforts.

00:03:28.880 I mean, how would kooky internet theories prevent you from helping people whose houses were washed

00:03:33.820 away in a flood exactly? She never bothered to explain that. But more importantly, it turns out that

00:03:39.520 the theories, of course, were true. Almost immediately, it became very clear that FEMA was indeed

00:03:44.540 overseeing the distribution of hundreds of millions of dollars to house illegal aliens.

00:03:48.700 That was kind of difficult to deny since there was a paper trail. So that's one conspiracy theory

00:03:53.340 that was proven true right off the bat, as so many others have been. But the media in this country and

00:03:58.620 all over the world continued to maintain that, contrary to what Donald Trump and those deranged

00:04:03.540 MAGA Republicans were saying, no disaster relief was being withheld based on demographics or political

00:04:09.880 views. And they were very, very clear on that point. Watch.

00:04:15.960 Even with all eyes now on Milton, it's the fallout from Helene that suddenly caught up in the ever more

00:04:22.040 ugly U.S. presidential election.

00:04:23.960 Kamala Harris has left them stranded. This is the worst response to a storm or a catastrophe or a hurricane

00:04:33.480 that we've ever seen, ever. On that, Donald Trump supporters cheered. But fact checkers had a field day,

00:04:41.800 labeling Trump's claims Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have failed to properly aid those hit hard by Helene

00:04:48.360 as demonstrably false. Biden, in turn, slamming Trump for politicizing Helene's damage

00:04:55.880 and harming Americans in need. But it misleads people. It puts people in circumstances where they panic.

00:05:02.360 Donald Trump has repeatedly stated falsehoods about the federal response to hurricane relief

00:05:08.200 efforts and officials say that's creating fear and it's also demoralizing aid workers.

00:05:13.800 In the aftermath of Helene, Trump claimed without evidence that the federal government was

00:05:18.760 intentionally withholding aid to people living in Republican areas.

00:05:24.760 So this is the moralizing tone that we're all very familiar with at this point. The media wags its

00:05:28.920 fingers at Donald Trump for saying something supposedly without evidence. They cited the

00:05:34.440 vaunted fact checkers who have already looked into the situation and then they imply that you're a 0.97

00:05:39.720 moron if you come to the conclusion that FEMA would ever, in its wildest dreams, shortchange American 0.97

00:05:44.760 citizens who urgently need emergency assistance. We're supposed to believe that FEMA would never 0.99

00:05:49.720 do such a thing, unless the year is 2005 and Republicans in the White House, in which case 0.99

00:05:54.040 FEMA desperately wants to kill as many black people as possible. Other than that, FEMA is the gold 1.00

00:05:59.080 standard. Any suggestion to the contrary is simply misinformation. To give one more example,

00:06:04.040 the Atlantic dismissed the quote, rumors alleging that FEMA was abandoning Trump voters after Helene.

00:06:09.560 These claims, we were told, were misinformation. And when the media was making these claims about FEMA,

00:06:16.520 it's true that there wasn't a written document from FEMA that explicitly stated,

00:06:21.240 don't help Trump supporters. But there was still a lot of evidence to back up what Trump was saying.

00:06:25.640 For one thing, there were many reports from residents in North Carolina and Florida that

00:06:29.160 FEMA wasn't helping them, as I covered on the show at the time. Then Congressman Corey Mills reported

00:06:33.960 that the federal government was preventing civilian rescue pilots and aid workers from saving lives in

00:06:39.400 the aftermath of Helene, in order to supposedly clear airspace for Air Force One. And then a SpaceX engineer,

00:06:45.480 who was assisting rescue efforts on the ground in North Carolina, stated that, quote,

00:06:48.920 FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away.

00:06:54.440 It's very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now

00:07:00.280 on the shipments of new Starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire department,

00:07:04.680 but that may not be enough. Now, after these reports came out, the media and the federal government

00:07:10.360 obviously should have begun a full investigation about what exactly FEMA was doing. If they actually cared 0.87

00:07:16.760 about the lives of Republicans living in disaster areas, they wouldn't sit back and lecture us about

00:07:21.960 misinformation and claim that we're saying things without evidence, they'd acknowledge that there

00:07:27.080 is a lot of very concerning evidence and they would look into the details, but they didn't do that.

00:07:33.080 Instead, they scolded us for thinking that FEMA would even consider the possibility of withholding

00:07:37.640 assistance from Trump voters who had just been hit by a hurricane.

00:07:40.200 So it fell to the Daily Wire to break the story on Friday that, in fact, FEMA had systematically refused

00:07:48.120 to provide disaster relief to Trump voters in the aftermath of Helene, and had done so explicitly

00:07:54.520 because they're Trump voters. And not just that, a FEMA official had put the plan in writing as clearly

00:08:01.640 and as unambiguously as possible. I mean, this is behavior that's so obscene and so malicious that,

00:08:07.960 even given everything we know about the Biden-Harris administration, a lot of people still assume

00:08:13.160 they couldn't possibly be real. But it is real. And if you or someone you know needs a wake-up call

00:08:19.560 about how far Democrats in the federal government will go in order to punish Americans who don't agree

00:08:25.160 with them, well, here it is. This is that moment. As the Daily Wire's Lee Flame-Hugh reported,

00:08:33.160 quote, a FEMA supervisor told workers in a message to avoid homes advertising Trump

00:08:38.360 as they canvassed Lake Placid, Florida, to identify residents who could qualify for federal aid,

00:08:43.960 internal messages viewed by the Daily Wire revealed. The supervisor, Marnie Washington,

00:08:48.240 relayed this message both verbally and in a group chat used by the relief team, multiple government

00:08:54.260 employees told the Daily Wire. Now, here's a screenshot of one of the written messages.

00:08:59.160 It reads, quote, implement best practices. No one goes anywhere alone. Avoid homes advertising Trump.

00:09:08.680 Practice de-escalation and preventative measures. Bring a towel with you in the field. Frequent breaks

00:09:14.540 and drink water. Avoid high salt diets and coffee. So the instructions to avoid homes with Trump signs

00:09:21.980 is just kind of casually thrown in there along with basic tips for people who are conducting relief

00:09:26.780 operations in a disaster zone. It wasn't some special secretive directive. It apparently felt

00:09:33.360 completely natural to a FEMA supervisor to put something like this in writing, just casually in

00:09:39.960 a list along with other tips. And to be clear, this wasn't some extremely dumb joke or a prank or

00:09:46.100 something. This is not Photoshop or whatever. This is not any of that. It's 100% confirmed.

00:09:52.880 The Daily Wire's reporting continues, the government employees told the Daily Wire that at least 20

00:09:57.460 homes with Trump signs or flags were skipped from the end of October and into November due to the

00:10:02.380 guidance, meaning they were not given the opportunity to qualify for FEMA assistance. Images shared with

00:10:07.380 the Daily Wire show that houses were skipped over by the workers who wrote in the government system

00:10:11.460 messages such as, Trump signed no entry per leadership. Yes, that's actually what the FEMA employees

00:10:18.580 wrote in the notes section when they were documenting what was happening. And this is what that looked

00:10:23.300 like in the government systems. You can see it there. So it says, not able to access property,

00:10:28.020 implying that the house was physically inaccessible. And then the note clarifies that actually they were

00:10:33.760 able to access the property, they just didn't want to. And yes, that's something that a government

00:10:38.400 employee put in writing in a fully traceable and internally accessible database, which is like a bank

00:10:46.300 robber passing a note to the teller saying, put all the money in the bag. And by the way, here's my

00:10:50.680 home address, my license plate, and my legal name. Within hours of the Daily Wire's reporting, this FEMA

00:10:55.500 supervisor was fired. And this time around, FEMA's director wasn't wagging her finger at right-wing

00:11:02.980 disinformation. She didn't tell us how unfortunate it was that we were spreading fear. Instead, this time

00:11:10.240 she claimed that the supervisor's behavior was extremely unusual, unthinkable at FEMA. Quote,

00:11:17.360 recently, one FEMA employee departed from these values to advise her survivor assistance team to

00:11:23.340 not go to homes with yard signs supporting President-elect Trump. This is a clear violation

00:11:27.960 of FEMA's core values and principles to help people regardless of their political affiliation.

00:11:32.800 This was reprehensible. I want to be clear to all of my employees and the American people,

00:11:36.780 this type of behavior and action will not be tolerated at FEMA. We will hold people accountable

00:11:41.360 if they violate these standards of conduct. This employee has been terminated and we have referred

00:11:46.080 the matter to the Office of Special Counsel. I will continue to do everything I can to make sure this

00:11:50.980 never happens again. Now, what's not addressed in the FEMA director's statement is why she thinks this

00:11:58.680 kind of behavior is confined to one FEMA employee. She's trying to play this off as an isolated incident

00:12:05.100 when it clearly isn't one. Again, this official gave these instructions multiple times verbally and

00:12:12.320 in writing. And the fact that she would say this, much less put it in writing, tells us quite a bit

00:12:17.820 about the culture at the agency. Because it seems to me that if helping people regardless of their

00:12:24.360 political affiliation really were the core values and principles of FEMA, this supervisor would not

00:12:31.140 have felt comfortable giving those kinds of instructions. This is the kind of thing that

00:12:36.680 only happens when the entire agency is corrupted. Think about what happened ahead of Trump's election

00:12:43.100 in 2016. There were multiple high-ranking FBI officials texting each other on company phones about

00:12:49.080 how they'd try to prevent Trump from becoming president. In August 2016, an FBI lawyer texted the head

00:12:54.800 of the agency's counterintelligence division, who incidentally was her lover at the time,

00:12:58.100 quote, Trump's not ever going to become president, right? Right? And he replied, no, no, he won't.

00:13:04.480 We'll stop it. And they talked about an insurance policy in case Trump was elected. Again, the FBI's

00:13:12.320 top expert in counterintelligence was using an FBI-issued phone to say stuff like this. That's the kind of

00:13:19.520 thing that only happens when you're very confident the FBI wouldn't care if they found out what you're

00:13:24.820 saying because they agree with you. It wasn't one or two bad eggs at the FBI. The whole agency was

00:13:30.340 compromised. Now, there's every reason to think that the same principle applies to FEMA. At the highest

00:13:36.960 levels, FEMA went on the warpath against right-wing disinformation just a month ago. And just a few 0.97

00:13:43.980 weeks later, all of that alleged disinformation has turned out to be true. So how about we just stop

00:13:50.520 insulting everyone's intelligence and admit what everybody knows, which is that FEMA, like pretty

00:13:56.380 much every other federal agency, probably voted for Kamala Harris by a nine-to-one margin. And like

00:14:03.900 every other government agency that's overrun with left-wing activists, it's not simply incompetent.

00:14:09.760 It's an active danger to the well-being of half the country. This is why Elon Musk's plan to gut the

00:14:14.940 federal bureaucracy isn't just about cost savings. It's about stopping these lunatics before they get 0.99

00:14:20.660 more people killed. It's also about hiring people who aren't crazy and unstable. The New York Post did 0.98

00:14:26.240 some digging on this FEMA supervisor's social media feeds. And here's what they found. Quote,

00:14:31.680 the former FEMA employee has a strong fixation with the history of slavery. She posted on her Facebook

00:14:36.560 page in 2019 about supposedly the first slave ship to travel to the America in the 1500s,

00:14:41.640 as well as an article about how California tried to ban free black individuals in the mid-1800s.

00:14:47.320 I'm steadfast and extremely unpredictable, she wrote on her social media page, adding a kiss emoji.

00:14:55.080 So she's, that's what you want from someone who's running a disaster relief. That's what you want 0.87

00:15:00.480 from a government, a bureaucrat running disaster relief, if they describe themselves as extremely

00:15:06.260 unpredictable. That's a quality you're looking, but no, she's not just extremely, she's steadfast 0.99

00:15:12.580 and extremely unpredictable, which seems to me to be like a contradiction in terms. And she's also 0.86

00:15:19.180 obsessed with slavery, apparently to the point where she wanted some payback against all those 0.96

00:15:23.140 MAGA Republicans. Maybe that was her motivation, who knows? And just on this basis alone, there's no 0.54

00:15:28.920 universe in which somebody like this should be employed at taxpayer expense. We simply can't continue

00:15:34.660 hiring barely literate left-wing activists anymore. Maybe it's time to take background checks and

00:15:40.620 interviews a little more seriously in order to make sure that we never hire one of these morons again, 1.00

00:15:45.160 especially when they're using kiss emojis on Facebook, which is independently disqualifying. 0.99

00:15:50.140 Now, in the meantime, for starters, FEMA's director needs to go. And I would hope that'd be one of the

00:15:55.860 first things to happen when Trump takes office. And this employee should not just be fired, but prosecuted.

00:16:01.140 Now, you can't lock up pro-lifers for praying and then look the other way when a government

00:16:07.840 official refuses to assist storm victims because they support Trump. And then we need a full accounting

00:16:13.480 for all the other ways that FEMA and other government agencies sabotage the interests of

00:16:18.580 American citizens under the Biden-Harris administration. If they're willing to basically write,

00:16:23.600 we won't help Trump supporters, I mean, not basically write that, but that's what they wrote,

00:16:29.120 and put that in a government database. You could just imagine what a thorough investigation would

00:16:35.240 probably uncover. At this point, it wouldn't be unthinkable to discover the FBI was writing notes

00:16:41.560 about how they have to arrest as many pro-lifers as possible, as revenge for Roe being overturned, 0.96

00:16:48.600 or the Department of Education is telling teachers to make students dumb and illiterate so that one day 0.97

00:16:52.720 they might seriously consider voting for a candidate like Kamala Harris. I mean, nothing's off the table, 0.98

00:16:57.000 given what we've seen so far. The federal bureaucracy is at war with the citizens who

00:17:03.400 pay their salaries. And a lot of well-intentioned Americans have dutifully paid those salaries over

00:17:08.960 the years on the assumption that these bureaucrats were public servants that they could count on

00:17:13.880 when necessary. But if that was ever true, it's not true anymore. Overwhelmingly, federal bureaucrats are

00:17:20.020 servants of the Democrat Party, which demands unwavering loyalty and, as we have seen,

00:17:25.120 tolerates no dissent. They're willing to call you liars for pointing out what they know they're

00:17:31.180 doing. They're willing to go into storm-ravaged neighborhoods and tell Trump supporters that

00:17:36.460 they're on their own. And that's why when the next administration starts, all of these bureaucrats

00:17:41.400 will be on their own. Americans aren't going to rush to their defense when the cuts begin.

00:17:48.640 When these bureaucrats go to court to save their jobs in the inevitable wave of lawsuits, 1.00

00:17:52.900 nobody's going to support them. There will be broad support for eliminating civil service

00:17:59.160 protections. Everyone understands that a bureaucracy that doesn't serve its citizens

00:18:03.980 and that goes out of its way to harm its citizens has no reason to exist.

00:18:09.860 Actually, there's at least one exception to that generalization. The corporate press believes that

00:18:13.520 the job of the government is to punish its own citizens for wrong things. So they're doing

00:18:17.680 everything they can to resist the destruction of the deep state. And that's now very clear as well.

00:18:21.420 Last night, a reporter for NBC News had a complete meltdown over The Daily Wire's reporting. And

00:18:26.360 this reporter, a woman named Myrna Al-Sarif, wrote a story about The Daily Wire's coverage that failed

00:18:33.780 to name the FEMA employee in question and also implied that we don't know when and where this

00:18:39.740 incident occurred. But we do have all those details. They're mentioned in The Daily Wire's story.

00:18:44.920 Of course, the reporter, who has pronouns in her bio, of course, doesn't mention The Daily Wire in her

00:18:52.040 piece, nor does she cite us. But she's clearly read the reporting because we're the ones who broke the

00:18:57.460 story in the first place. And then when The Daily Wire's editor, Brent Scher, pointed out all of these

00:19:02.220 problems to Myrna, she went on a bizarre tirade, lashing out at everybody who interacted with her. 1.00

00:19:07.080 For example, and this is, again, a reporter for NBC. She wrote, quote, sorry, Brent Scher, are your

00:19:13.840 feelings hurt because I didn't link to The Daily Wire's story? Stay mad. Then when someone pointed

00:19:19.220 out that she was acting like a hack, Myrna wrote, quote, the hack is your mama. She went on to call 1.00

00:19:26.120 somebody the B word and then declared, I get my info from official sources. In other words, she's not going

00:19:32.540 to look at the screenshots from FEMA's database because they weren't included in the FEMA press

00:19:37.660 release. Therefore, she won't mention them. And then after a bunch of people pointed out that she

00:19:42.600 was acting completely unhinged, she called Brent Scher a troll and then deleted her ex-account entirely.

00:19:49.240 Now, you can choose to interpret all this as the late night psychotic breakdown of a potentially

00:19:54.180 intoxicated NBC News journalist. But the truth is, NBC News, like FEMA, goes out of its way to hire

00:20:01.000 people like this. They want people who are dishonest, unintelligent, unhinged, unstable. 0.96

00:20:07.880 They're willing to tolerate all of those characteristics as long as these people also 0.97

00:20:11.320 hate Republicans with a passion. That is the one quality they screen for at NBC News. And it's the

00:20:16.900 one quality they screen for in the federal government up until now. Put another way, the federal

00:20:23.840 bureaucracy is a leviathan that has expanded to the point that it has no shame, no self-awareness,

00:20:29.480 no competence, no integrity. It has only a deep and abiding disdain for tens of millions of Americans.

00:20:36.920 Disdain that's so pervasive that they're happy to put it in writing.

00:20:40.420 They have become emboldened, in part because they have the support of the news media.

00:20:46.520 But that's the only support they have at this point.

00:20:49.220 It's become too obvious to far too many people that they want to destroy us for what we believe.

00:20:57.520 And now I think it's time to return the favor.

00:21:00.860 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:21:02.140 Let's talk about something that keeps business owners up at night, managing finances. If your

00:21:12.040 current system feels about as useful as a chocolate teapot, I've got a solution that'll make you wonder

00:21:17.320 how you ever lived without it. It's called RAMP. RAMP is a corporate card and spend management software

00:22:09.320 All right, we're starting to get some news about who is going to be in this upcoming Trump

00:22:15.100 administration. Daily Wire reports, President-elect Donald Trump announced late on Sunday night that

00:22:18.820 he was naming his former acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to be the new

00:22:23.580 border czar. Trump said in a statement, quote, I'm pleased to announce that the former ICE director

00:22:29.500 and stalwart on border control, Tom Homan, will be joining the Trump administration in charge of

00:22:34.060 our nation's borders, the border czar, including but not limited to the southern border, the northern

00:22:37.920 border, all maritime and aviation security. He continued, I've known Tom for a long time and

00:22:43.300 there's nobody better at policing and controlling our borders. Likewise, Tom Homan will be in charge of

00:22:46.820 all deportation of illegal aliens back to their country of origin. Congratulations to Tom. 0.97

00:22:50.860 I have no doubt he'll do a fantastic and long awaited job. So this is one of the first official

00:22:59.380 positions that Trump has filled. And this is going to be the person who, you know, and the good thing

00:23:05.360 is that Trump is actually explaining what the border czar is supposed to do, which is already,

00:23:11.400 so already he's done, he's not even the president yet. And he's already done more in that regard than

00:23:16.640 Biden never did, because as we know, famously, he put Kamala in the position of border czar,

00:23:23.680 but never told us what exactly that entails. What is she doing exactly? Turns out she did nothing.

00:23:30.780 Well, except facilitate the flood of more illegal immigrants into the country. So she did that. 0.75

00:23:38.500 But in this case, we're being told exactly what he's going to do. And that includes,

00:23:42.120 he is going to be heading up the mass deportation program. So who is this guy? And if you're not

00:23:50.280 familiar with him, not sure whether you should be excited about this appointment or not. I think

00:23:55.260 there are two clips that should tell you everything you need to know about this guy. First, here he is

00:24:02.640 in a hearing, somewhat recently, getting interrogated by AOC. Let's watch that.

00:24:11.540 Zero tolerance was interpreted as the policy that separated children from their parents.

00:24:16.040 If I get arrested for DUI and I have a young child in a car, I'm going to be separated. When I was a

00:24:20.420 police officer in New York and I arrested a father for domestic violence, I separated that father from his family.

00:24:24.940 Mr. Holman, with all due respect, legal asylees are not charged with any crime. 0.92

00:24:32.860 When you're in the country illegally, there's a violation of the United States Code 1325.

00:24:37.040 Seeking asylum is legal. 0.99

00:24:39.360 If you want to seek asylum and go to the port of entry, do it the legal way. 0.75

00:24:43.020 The Attorney General of the United States has made that clear.

00:24:45.460 Okay. Mr. Chair, the memo is submitted to the record for review.

00:24:52.840 She's got nothing at the end. Okay.

00:24:58.300 Nothing at all. Nothing at all. Because, of course, what he said there is very simple, very correct.

00:25:05.060 Really basic point about the separation of families.

00:25:09.900 That anytime somebody commits a crime,

00:25:13.760 they're going to be separated from their family, at least for some period of time.

00:25:18.680 This is what enforcing the law pretty much always entails.

00:25:23.740 Then you never hear anyone lament that fact.

00:25:27.340 Or you might lament it.

00:25:28.960 As he points out, if somebody commits a DUI, they're going to go to jail.

00:25:34.540 You might lament the fact that they're being taken away from their kids.

00:25:37.240 It's a sad thing. It's sad for the kids.

00:25:38.880 But nobody would blame the court system for separating. 0.80

00:25:45.120 Nobody would say that, well, because this person has a kid, they just shouldn't go to jail at all.

00:25:49.300 They should be allowed to do whatever they want.

00:25:51.340 They shouldn't be punished for DUI because they have a kid.

00:25:55.020 If anything, it's the opposite.

00:25:56.380 You're like, well, this is all the more reason to punish them.

00:25:58.060 You have a kid and you're acting that way.

00:25:59.260 So, very basic point there, but true and correct and important.

00:26:05.880 And then AOC says, well, they haven't committed a crime.

00:26:08.860 They're asylees. They're seeking asylum. 1.00

00:26:11.000 And you notice, of course, what's happened here.

00:26:12.580 It's very obvious that the rebranding of illegal immigrants. 0.97

00:26:20.400 Okay, we went from they were illegal immigrants and then it became undocumented immigrants.

00:26:27.660 And then there's really been an update in the branding, the euphemisms used by people like AOC.

00:26:34.380 Yeah, they still call them undocumented.

00:26:35.920 But now you don't even hear that term used as often because instead they just call them all asylum seekers.

00:26:42.580 Or asylees, as AOC said.

00:26:46.300 So that's the rebranding now.

00:26:49.260 Every single, this is really what AOC believes.

00:26:51.260 This is not a straw man.

00:26:52.740 This is what she believes.

00:26:54.500 What she would say is that every single illegal immigrant in this country is an asylum seeker.

00:27:02.020 Just by the very fact that they came here, even if they never seek asylum in any kind of official legal way.

00:27:09.660 If somebody came here as an illegal immigrant 15 years ago and has just been living here and, you know, working a job that they shouldn't be working because it belongs to an American citizen, they're an asylum seeker. 0.97

00:27:22.120 They never actually sought asylum in any official way.

00:27:25.320 They never declared themselves.

00:27:26.500 They never did.

00:27:27.120 But they're automatically an asylum seeker because they are here. 0.99

00:27:30.180 That's the way that she sees it.

00:27:32.100 That's the way the left sees it.

00:27:33.300 Tom Homan is saying, no, it turns out there's actually an official process for seeking asylum.

00:27:39.260 And you have to go through that process.

00:27:40.960 And if you don't, then that's what makes you an illegal immigrant.

00:27:43.200 So that tells you something about this guy's, you know, approach.

00:27:50.000 And there's also this.

00:27:51.320 Here's, that was exhibit one.

00:27:52.720 Here's exhibit two.

00:27:53.520 This is from 60 Minutes a couple of months ago.

00:27:56.600 We have seen one estimate that says it would cost $88 billion to deport a million people a year.

00:28:05.960 I don't know if that's accurate or not.

00:28:08.160 Is that what American taxpayers should expect?

00:28:11.020 What price do you put on national security?

00:28:12.560 Is that worth it?

00:28:13.820 Is there a way to carry out mass deportation without separating families?

00:28:19.080 Of course there is.

00:28:21.760 Families can be deported together.

00:28:26.520 So in other words, yeah, you should be excited about this appointment.

00:28:29.860 This is exactly the kind of guy that you need in the government.

00:28:36.580 This is the kind of guy you need in leadership positions.

00:28:38.600 It's the kind of guy you need handling a problem like this.

00:28:41.000 Everything about him, even the way, just the look, everything.

00:28:43.820 It's exactly what you need.

00:28:45.340 It should be a guy.

00:28:46.820 Even before you hear him say anything, you can just kind of look at this guy.

00:28:49.300 You're like, yeah, that's the guy.

00:28:50.280 That's the guy we want on this.

00:28:51.760 And then you hear what he has to say, and it makes it very clear.

00:28:59.920 Trump's border czar is the guy who said that the way to prevent family separations is to deport the whole family together, which is true. 1.00

00:29:06.820 You know, it's exactly right.

00:29:10.440 This is the appropriate way to handle family separations.

00:29:14.200 If you don't want to separate the family, well, send them all back. 0.95

00:29:18.840 You know, that's how you solve the problem solved.

00:29:21.460 And that is the appropriate way to handle family separations.

00:29:26.880 It's common sense.

00:29:28.820 But it's the kind of thing that until Trump, no Republican official would ever say.

00:29:35.200 And more importantly, it's a policy that they would never enact.

00:29:38.980 And this is exactly what we need.

00:29:42.460 We need someone who will coolly and dispassionately apply the law.

00:29:47.700 Right?

00:29:48.180 Enough of the compassionate conservative types who are so easily manipulated by airheads like AOC.

00:29:55.680 We also don't need, on the other end of that spectrum, maybe some kind of like crusading firebrand type.

00:30:01.680 It's not really what you need.

00:30:02.600 I mean, I'd take that.

00:30:03.480 I'd prefer that over the former.

00:30:05.940 But you don't even really need that either.

00:30:07.200 You just need a guy who's competent and serious, no nonsense.

00:30:13.420 A guy who's like, look, here's the law.

00:30:15.580 We're going to enforce it.

00:30:17.960 That's it.

00:30:19.560 That's all.

00:30:20.120 That's what the law is.

00:30:21.960 So are you going to deport 20 million illegal immigrants?

00:30:24.280 Well, they're all here and they shouldn't be.

00:30:26.880 However many are here is how many we're going to deport.

00:30:28.680 I don't know.

00:30:29.640 If it's 20 million, that's the number.

00:30:33.420 Here's the good news.

00:30:34.100 Once we deport them all, then we don't have to worry. 0.97

00:30:36.500 Then if that makes you sad, once you deport all of them, then you don't have to deport anybody anymore. 0.72

00:30:42.480 So that's the good news.

00:30:44.380 I will say this, and I don't want to hype things up too much ahead of time.

00:30:47.000 But if Trump staffs his whole administration with guys like this, then his second term could be, could be, could be one of the great presidential terms in American history if he does that, if these are the kinds of guys that are put into these positions.

00:31:05.020 And when I say these kinds of guys, what do I mean?

00:31:09.540 I mean, these are guys who are, they're not neocons.

00:31:12.460 They're not milquetoast centrists.

00:31:15.700 They're not liberals.

00:31:17.960 They're also not attention-seeking blowhards, right, who seem like they're trying to parlay the job into a cable news gig. 0.98

00:31:28.000 You don't need those kinds of people either.

00:31:29.340 This is someone who's both competent and totally unconcerned with the left-wing narrative.

00:31:35.480 A competent, no-nonsense guy who doesn't care what the liberals are whining about.

00:31:39.820 Just, you need a, that's, they don't need to be performative.

00:31:42.900 They don't need to be anything.

00:31:43.900 They prefer if they're not.

00:31:45.900 They don't need to love the attention.

00:31:47.220 They don't need anything like that.

00:31:48.600 You just need someone who cares about getting the job done, is going to get it done.

00:31:52.240 And if the left is crying about it, they don't care.

00:31:56.020 We need a whole administration of guys just like that.

00:32:01.780 So, off to a good start, we can certainly say.

00:32:04.440 All right, left-wing students on campuses are struggling to cope with the election results.

00:32:10.260 But some colleges are finding ways to help them through this difficult time.

00:32:14.780 Watch.

00:32:16.360 As ballots continue to be counted, Chico State is offering support to students

00:32:20.800 who might be feeling some distress if it didn't go their way.

00:32:24.520 Well, Action News Now reporter, Sade Poulin, is, she actually spoke with a university counselor

00:32:29.340 and shows us why the service is being offered now.

00:32:33.240 Chico State's president, Stephen Perez, announced Wednesday morning

00:32:36.940 that students that are upset about the election results

00:32:39.800 have a safe space here on campus through mental health services.

00:32:45.380 Perez says although some may be excited about the outcome,

00:32:48.660 marginalized communities may be feeling especially heavy post-election.

00:32:53.600 The senior director for student affairs, Dawn Frank, tells me that depending on the administration

00:32:58.400 and office, potential policy changes could affect those communities more than others.

00:33:03.500 This includes people of color, the LGBTQ plus community, undocumented students, and women.

00:33:09.980 Some of those communities following the election have a lot of fear,

00:33:15.140 have a lot of grief, and a lot of uncertainty of what comes next.

00:33:20.140 So we wanted to make sure that we created safe spaces.

00:33:23.440 Frank says that the university offered counseling services for the last two presidential elections,

00:33:29.080 including in 2020 when Joe Biden was elected.

00:33:32.240 She says in the last few years, the university has seen the need.

00:33:35.820 For a lot of the folks, again, because of the fear and the uncertainty of what's coming,

00:33:41.740 this can be a traumatic moment for them.

00:33:44.080 And so I would argue that counseling is not a dramatic response,

00:33:47.400 but that it's an appropriate response.

00:33:49.360 And this is a healing-centered campus.

00:33:51.200 Some of it was more formalized counseling services,

00:33:54.160 and others were really just more intentional interactions,

00:33:56.920 come in and, you know, do meditation coloring sheets.

00:34:00.600 Frank tells me that the university is offering the support after several students' request.

00:34:07.400 Yes, you heard that right, coloring books.

00:34:09.240 So they're giving therapeutic coloring books to students who are traumatized by Trump getting elected.

00:34:14.680 I think that's a great idea, actually.

00:34:16.520 It might surprise you to hear me say that.

00:34:19.080 But if I was running a college campus, I would also offer coloring books to any students who are feeling sad

00:34:25.440 so that anyone who came to get a coloring book could be immediately expelled.

00:34:33.160 And this is how a college campus would work under my direction.

00:34:36.820 We'd offer all kinds of services.

00:34:38.340 We'd offer, you know, the wokest services imaginable. 0.90

00:34:40.860 The catch is that you'll be expelled if you request them.

00:34:45.240 So it's like a, it's like a, it's like an elaborate, it's like a booby trap.

00:34:49.360 And if you, you fall into it, if you come and ask for it.

00:34:52.920 And by the way, I'd still give you the coloring book.

00:34:56.160 You know, I wouldn't be lying.

00:34:58.080 But you'd be given the coloring book, and then you'd be told that you can leave the campus

00:35:03.000 and go do your coloring somewhere else because you're banned for life.

00:35:08.520 You know, plenty has been said about snowflake college students.

00:35:12.820 There probably isn't much that needs to be added to that point.

00:35:15.800 But I will just say that this is, again, the problem with living in a society where people 1.00

00:35:20.120 go to therapy to deal with every uncomfortable experience or inconvenience that they encounter.

00:35:27.060 Because then suddenly everything is traumatizing.

00:35:29.180 Everything is a trauma.

00:35:31.300 I mean, you heard it there, the word trauma.

00:35:33.260 These are traumatized.

00:35:34.200 But let me tell you this.

00:35:34.860 You are not, you are not traumatized by the election.

00:35:38.400 Okay, actually not, not everything is a trauma.

00:35:40.860 You might be sad.

00:35:41.600 You might be worried.

00:35:42.280 You might be upset.

00:35:43.900 You might be mad.

00:35:45.740 You shouldn't be any of those things in response to Trump winning.

00:35:48.660 But you might be.

00:35:51.560 And that's fine.

00:35:54.780 If you want an election to go a certain way, it goes the other way.

00:35:59.040 Being disappointed.

00:36:01.460 That's reasonable.

00:36:02.400 It's a reasonable emotional response.

00:36:04.340 Disappointment.

00:36:06.540 It's not trauma, though.

00:36:07.740 And a lot of people these days, especially younger people, just cannot draw a distinction between an uncomfortable emotional experience and trauma.

00:36:19.640 They just can't distinguish between the two.

00:36:21.280 They really can.

00:36:21.920 It's kind of like, you know, I was talking to a doctor recently, and I was asking him about the, something I've always wondered about with the, you know, the pain scale that they have, the one to ten.

00:36:32.600 And if you go to a doctor, you go to an emergency room, they'll ask you how much pain you're feeling, and they say on a scale of one to ten.

00:36:38.860 And I've always wondered about it, because not only is it subjective, obviously, but I have to imagine that these days, when so many people are weak and prone to hysteria, that, and, you know, just dramatic and theatrical, and they love being victims.

00:36:53.900 I mean, not everybody, but there are plenty of people like that.

00:36:56.720 You must get a lot of patients who come in claiming that their pain is a ten.

00:37:01.260 You must hear a lot of tens.

00:37:02.580 You must, when you, as a nurse or a doctor, you must hear a lot of nines and tens all the time from people.

00:37:08.980 When in reality, it's like a three or four.

00:37:12.320 One of the many reasons I could never be a doctor or a nurse, because many reasons.

00:37:15.960 One of them is this, that every person who tells me, oh, my pain's a nine or ten, I'm like, eh, is it really?

00:37:21.500 I don't think it is.

00:37:22.580 It's not that bad.

00:37:23.600 Come on.

00:37:25.780 I mean, if you're shot in the stomach or something and actively bleeding, then maybe I'll buy a nine or ten.

00:37:30.340 But other than that, I'm just not buying it.

00:37:33.560 People exaggerate, is the point.

00:37:34.880 And the doctor I was talking to said that, you know, this is an issue.

00:37:39.980 People do exaggerate.

00:37:41.080 He also said that the whole pain scale number thing is sort of, is not, they're not, they're looking more at your vitals and other physical clinical signs than the number that you assign.

00:37:50.960 So I'm not even sure what the point of the number is.

00:37:52.160 Anyway, the point is that something similar happens with emotional pain, I think.

00:37:59.520 Only it's much worse.

00:38:01.300 You know, because the emotional equivalent of a stubbed toe is now categorized as trauma.

00:38:06.100 And so I'm not, like, joking or being hyperbolic at all when I say that these people, especially these kids on college campuses that are, you know, going to the counseling center because they truly have lost the ability to distinguish between emotional discomfort and trauma.

00:38:26.480 The idea that something could make you emotionally uncomfortable and yet not be traumatic is offensive to them.

00:38:36.400 They're traumatized by the very suggestion that they are traumatized.

00:38:42.040 And this is all part of the therapeutic industry.

00:38:49.160 And this is the mentality that it's instilled in so many people.

00:38:52.220 All right, here's a guy who's certainly traumatized.

00:38:56.060 Daily Wire reports about Barack Obama.

00:38:59.520 Says, Barack Obama is nervous about his legacy after President-elect Donald Trump's historic victory over Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.

00:39:06.800 Former President's biographer said, he has been and remains extremely concerned and nervous about his historical legacy, said David Garrow, who wrote the biography, Rising Star, The Making of Barack Obama.

00:39:18.320 That has certainly taken a big hit with Trump once again triumphing.

00:39:22.220 The conclusion for Democrats is that they've got to dispense with these people from the past, including Hillary Clinton, too, and move to a new generation of figures who are not in the AOC club at all.

00:39:33.400 Well, I will say Obama should be nervous about his legacy because it is in shambles.

00:39:39.000 It is destroyed.

00:39:41.360 Right?

00:39:41.660 It's over.

00:39:43.200 The Obama legacy is finished.

00:39:46.120 It's completely finished.

00:39:47.700 And here's what's great about Obama's legacy.

00:39:52.640 This is what I love about it.

00:39:53.800 This is what I love about the situation that he finds himself in. 0.99

00:39:56.780 It's that no matter how you look at it, no matter which side you're on, his legacy is garbage. 1.00

00:40:03.240 This is something that now both sides will have to agree, his legacy is garbage. 0.99

00:40:10.020 So if you're a conservative, then you can clearly see the truth, which is that Obama was potentially the worst president in United States history. 0.98

00:40:20.540 Maybe outdone by Biden, but we'll have to see.

00:40:23.220 I mean, you need a little bit more time.

00:40:25.340 We know that Biden was a terrible president.

00:40:27.320 Was he the worst?

00:40:28.320 Really depends on what happens in the future because you have to have time to see the long-term effects of the presidency.

00:40:36.040 And with Obama, we've had that time, and we've seen the long-term effects, and they were catastrophic.

00:40:41.060 So he was, as far as we know right now, the worst president in history.

00:40:45.380 He destroyed the country, destroyed our culture.

00:40:48.140 He was an abject failure in every respect.

00:40:50.320 He made America more fractured, less stable, less prosperous.

00:40:54.760 He was a destructive force economically, socially, culturally.

00:40:59.920 That's what you would say, what you would correctly say if you're on the right.

00:41:04.820 If you're on the left, you'd probably object to most of that analysis.

00:41:12.260 But from your perspective on the left, the Obama years led directly to Trump

00:41:17.180 and to the eventual undoing of the entire Democrat Party.

00:41:21.460 I mean, the entire Democrat Party is now just, it's going to have to be rebuilt from the ground up.

00:41:28.140 Like Obama's legacy, it is in shambles.

00:41:30.640 And if the Democrat Party after Obama is in shambles, then Obama's legacy is in shambles

00:41:34.500 because this is Obama's Democrat Party.

00:41:36.140 There's no denying it.

00:41:36.940 Which means that he failed even by their estimation.

00:41:41.040 He failed in a different way.

00:41:44.080 But he still failed.

00:41:46.960 So who's left?

00:41:48.740 Who would view Obama as a success at this point?

00:41:51.700 Who could in the year 2024, as we head into 2025, after this past election,

00:41:56.760 who would look at Obama now and say, wow, that was fantastic.

00:42:01.940 That really, that was great.

00:42:03.560 That worked out great.

00:42:04.880 Who would say that?

00:42:08.120 If anything on the left, they'd be less likely to say that now.

00:42:11.560 You know, certainly on the right we'd say this.

00:42:13.180 But at this point, you couldn't possibly look at that as any kind of great success.

00:42:21.180 So, yeah, his legacy is completely and totally destroyed.

00:42:27.840 And could not have happened to a more deserving person.

00:42:32.260 All right, let's talk about something that affects all of us.

00:42:34.160 Taxes.

00:42:34.700 The October 15th deadline is passed.

00:42:36.980 And if you're not prepared, you could be in for a world of hurt.

00:42:39.500 Do you owe back taxes?

00:42:40.520 Are your returns still unfiled?

00:42:42.320 Did you miss the deadline to file for an extension?

00:42:44.600 Well, now that we're past October 15th, the IRS is probably gearing up for some aggressive enforcement.

00:42:48.840 Trust me, you don't want to be on their radar.

00:42:51.280 We're talking wage garnishments, frozen bank accounts, or even property seizures.

00:42:54.420 It's not pretty.

00:42:55.780 But before you start panicking, there's still hope.

00:42:58.200 Tax Network USA has helped taxpayers save over a billion dollars in tax debt and filed over 10,000 tax returns.

00:43:04.300 These guys specialize in reducing tax burdens for working Americans just like you.

00:43:08.420 Look, I get it.

00:43:08.960 Dealing with the IRS is about as fun as a root canal.

00:43:37.240 Am I Racist became the biggest documentary of the decade in theaters, and now it's streaming exclusively on Daily Wire+.

00:43:43.480 If you saw Am I Racist in theaters, first of all, thank you.

00:43:46.680 Congratulations.

00:43:47.280 You're part of history.

00:43:48.180 But there's more you haven't seen.

00:43:49.940 We've got a deleted scene where I somehow ended up as my beloved children's book character, Johnny the Walrus.

00:43:56.440 You know, you need to see that.

00:43:57.760 It won't make any sense until you see it.

00:43:59.940 Along with behind-the-scenes footage where I show you how we pulled off the biggest troll in history on the left.

00:44:04.620 And yes, it was all real, but the only way to see it is with a Daily Wire Plus membership.

00:44:09.000 If you're not a member yet, now's the time.

00:44:10.320 Go to dailywire.com slash subscribe.

00:44:12.360 Use code TRUMP to get 47% off a new annual membership.

00:44:16.000 Now let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:44:23.680 As we discussed during this segment last week, the left has tried different coping mechanisms in response to Kamala's humiliating defeat on Tuesday.

00:44:31.360 They've tried screaming hysterically in their cars.

00:44:33.580 They've tried swearing off all sexual relations with men. 0.99

00:44:36.720 They've tried shaving their heads.

00:44:38.220 They've tried therapeutic coloring books.

00:44:40.840 None of that seems to have assuaged their anguish.

00:44:44.020 And now they're trying a new strategy.

00:44:45.380 Kamala voters on TV and in social media have declared that the only path forward is to cut off all contact with friends and family members who voted for Trump.

00:44:55.180 A child psychiatrist from Yale made this exact recommendation on MSNBC.

00:44:59.840 Are people challenged with the idea of how do you interact with people who you know voted for this, right?

00:45:05.880 If you are an LGBTQ person and you know someone in your family voted essentially against your rights or you're a woman knowing that, you know, this man was calling people the B word.

00:45:14.940 J.D. Vance was literally calling Kamala Harris the trash and said we're going to take out the trash. 0.98

00:45:20.200 I know a lot of black women were incredibly triggered by that. 1.00

00:45:22.780 And if you then meet somebody and you know they voted for the people who called you trash or if you're Puerto Rican, you know, you know someone voted that way, do you recommend just from a psychological standpoint being around them? 0.93

00:45:34.660 We got the holidays coming up.

00:45:37.000 So I love that you asked this question because, you know, there is a push.

00:45:41.260 I think just a societal norm that if somebody is your family, that they are entitled to your time.

00:45:48.080 And I think the answer is absolutely not.

00:45:51.160 So if you are going into a situation where you have family members, where you have close friends who you know have voted in ways that are against you, like what you said, against your livelihood.

00:46:02.940 And it's completely fine to not be around those people and to tell them why, you know, to say I have a problem with the way that you voted because it went against my very livelihood and I'm not going to be around you this holiday.

00:46:16.980 I need to take some space for me.

00:46:19.240 So Joy Reid wants to know how someone is supposed to interact with a family member who voted differently. 0.99

00:46:25.300 This is the kind of question you only ask if you have the maturity and intelligence of a brain damaged lizard.

00:46:30.020 But for normal people, it's not confusing or difficult. 0.84

00:46:33.980 You interact with your family members by speaking to them.

00:46:38.780 I'd recommend starting with hello or, you know, a similar greeting.

00:46:42.540 If you want to avoid talking politics with them, that's fine.

00:46:45.940 I personally enjoy debating politics with my family, although we all we agree on the fundamentals.

00:46:51.420 I don't have any Kamala voters in my family.

00:46:55.660 But, you know, if you don't want to debate it, you don't have to.

00:46:58.200 Your family is still your family.

00:47:01.740 But that's not what this Yale psychiatrist says.

00:47:04.700 According to her, your family is only your family if they agree with you politically.

00:47:09.740 This is the kind of insight we can expect from Ivy League mental health experts.

00:47:13.980 She is recommending isolation, alienation and the severing of support systems.

00:47:19.160 Okay, that's what a psychiatrist is recommending to people who are already obviously mentally unstable, which is like a cardiologist advising someone to elevate their cholesterol levels to like 300.

00:47:34.100 I mean, it's the opposite of what you're supposed to be telling people to do, obviously.

00:47:37.160 And if you're wondering why I'm extremely skeptical of the psychiatry profession, well, this woman is exhibit one million, approximately.

00:47:46.440 A lot of people seem to have taken her advice, however.

00:47:48.980 Here's a guy on TikTok giving his followers some self-care tips in the wake of the election results.

00:47:55.700 Well, good afternoon, you beautiful mother.

00:47:59.700 Just a reminder that going no contact with somebody or people, family members, friends, because they voted for Trump and against your rights and your freedoms, in my opinion, is one of the ultimate forms of self-care.

00:48:18.040 That's about it, like, if someone wants you to have less rights and freedoms, then how the f*** is that, how is that person your family member or a friend?

00:48:32.980 Why would you want to spend Thanksgiving with them?

00:48:35.320 Why would you want to buy them gifts? 0.97

00:48:36.960 Like, if they don't give a f*** about your rights and freedoms, then how the f*** do they give a f*** about you? 0.96

00:48:45.260 That's it. 0.92

00:48:45.940 So, some incredible wisdom. 0.95

00:48:48.580 If they don't give an f*** about your rights and freedoms, then how the f*** do they give an f*** about you? 0.94

00:48:52.760 I think he was quoting Aristotle there. 0.71

00:48:54.900 Never mind the fact that none of these people can possibly explain which of their rights are threatened by Trump.

00:49:00.100 What right, specifically, has Trump promised to end?

00:49:04.720 Which right?

00:49:05.860 Now, they can't answer that.

00:49:07.160 They can't even begin to answer it.

00:49:08.600 That ultimately is why they want to cut off contact with their Trump-supporting family members.

00:49:12.680 It's not that those family members are rude or abusive to them.

00:49:15.320 It's that those family members may ask them to explain their political position, which is something they absolutely cannot do.

00:49:22.000 And they know they can't do it.

00:49:23.920 That explains this post from somebody named Derek over on X.

00:49:27.240 He wrote, quote,

00:49:27.880 Yes, Derek says that if you are not spitting on the graves of your own family, you need to take a long look in the mirror.

00:49:47.400 You need to stop and consider what went wrong in your life that you aren't disowning your family and spitting on their graves.

00:49:55.020 That's what all the cool kids are doing.

00:49:56.820 That's what all the totally well-adjusted and normal human beings are doing.

00:50:00.140 I think the point has been made, but I will only reiterate that Derek here cannot explain how Trump is a fascist or what fascism is or why he's opposed to it, whatever it is.

00:50:12.760 He has no clue.

00:50:13.960 And he certainly doesn't want to be asked that question at Thanksgiving.

00:50:16.780 He'd rather betray his own blood, stab them in the back, than have his own intellectual vacuousness exposed.

00:50:24.720 Unfortunately for Derek, you know, a little too late for that.

00:50:28.240 We haven't even gotten to the worst example yet. 0.99

00:50:30.180 Here's a Kamala voter attacking her own children for disagreeing with her dumb political views. 0.99

00:50:36.460 So here's a problem that I have dealing with my MAGA sons. 1.00

00:50:44.380 They get very, very offended if I say that I think that they are ignorant to some things because of their support for this grapist and felon. 1.00

00:51:02.500 But here's the thing.

00:51:07.120 I have two choices when I try to understand why they would support an abhorrent human that goes against every value I try to instill in them.

00:51:24.300 Here's my two choices. 1.00

00:51:25.580 I can believe that you are ignorant or I can believe that you are evil. 1.00

00:51:33.340 Ignorant is the kinder choice. 1.00

00:51:37.220 So just to review, this horrific witch of a woman decided to make a TikTok video publicly accusing her own sons of either being ignorant or evil because they voted for someone she doesn't like. 1.00

00:51:49.180 And what are they ignorant of? 0.99

00:51:51.480 What information do you have, lady, about Trump that they don't have?

00:51:55.680 Can you enlighten them?

00:51:57.300 Can you share these salient details with them?

00:51:59.380 I'm sure you've tried, but the problem is that you believe a bunch of nonsense that you heard from MSNBC. 1.00

00:52:06.240 And your sons are too respectful to inform you that you are a pretentious dimwit with your head stuck up your ass. 1.00

00:52:12.500 Unfortunately, you aren't my mom, so I can say that to you. 1.00

00:52:15.020 They won't say it, I'm guessing, because they care about their family, which is more than I can say about you.

00:52:19.520 Now, let me end this with just one last thought for any leftist considering cutting off contact with family members who committed the sin of having a mind and opinions of their own.

00:52:29.460 You're free to make that choice, of course.

00:52:34.800 But if you do, please don't bother us a few years from now with some tearful follow-up video crying about how lonely and sad you are.

00:52:47.700 Okay?

00:52:48.060 Please don't do that.

00:52:48.880 Because none of us will have any sympathy for you.

00:52:53.200 None of us will care.

00:52:54.920 You know what?

00:52:55.240 Actually, we'll laugh in your face.

00:52:56.660 We will laugh at your pain right in your face.

00:52:59.180 Because you're choosing it.

00:53:00.320 You are choosing to be isolated and alone.

00:53:03.500 I mean, that woman in that video, she's going to die alone. 0.51

00:53:05.600 Her family's going to hate her. 0.90

00:53:06.900 She's going to be in a nursing home just dying alone with no one to even visit her. 0.97

00:53:11.660 And if they do, they're going to do so begrudgingly because they don't want to spend any time with her.

00:53:18.160 And she's going to be really sad about that.

00:53:19.840 But you know what?

00:53:20.420 I don't care.

00:53:22.180 Your pain means nothing.

00:53:25.360 You deserve it.

00:53:27.160 To return from a theme from last week, that's justice.

00:53:30.500 You deserve that.

00:53:32.660 You are disowning and disavowing the only people who love and care about you unconditionally.

00:53:37.940 Now, for most of the people in these videos and most of these leftist types who would want to disown their families,

00:53:44.240 the rest of us don't want to be around you or talk to you or even get to know you 0.81

00:53:49.240 because you're incredibly unpleasant and insufferable. 0.98

00:53:53.160 Going back to that woman in the video. 0.99

00:53:54.980 No other person in the world, I guarantee you, no one wants to be around that woman. 1.00

00:53:58.660 She has no real friends.

00:53:59.900 Either friends that she has hate her guts and talk about her behind her back.

00:54:03.060 No one wants to be around a person like that.

00:54:04.740 No way.

00:54:05.240 You do have a family, though.

00:54:09.060 And your family loves you anyway.

00:54:12.200 Right?

00:54:12.960 If you push them away, you'll be left with no one.

00:54:17.220 You'll be miserable and alone and alienated from the only people who ever cared about you or wanted to be around you.

00:54:25.140 And you'll deserve it.

00:54:26.460 But, hey, at least you'll have made a statement about Trump.

00:54:31.920 A statement that will have no impact on the world outside of your own life,

00:54:35.600 which you will have made even more miserable than it already was.

00:54:40.100 And that is why you will be, at that point, and are now, already, today, canceled.

00:54:45.600 That'll do it for the show today.

00:54:46.320 Thanks for watching.

00:54:46.820 Thanks for listening.

00:54:47.380 Talk to you tomorrow.

00:54:48.160 Have a great day.

00:54:49.140 Godspeed.

00:54:49.500 Godspeed.
