00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, it has finally come to light that the illegal immigrant who
00:00:03.440 murdered Lakin Riley in Georgia was transported to the state on a tax-funded flight set up by
00:00:07.980 the Biden administration. The government directly facilitated the murder of an American citizen.
00:00:11.760 Also, Jen Psaki insists that Democrats must double down on their most unpopular and roundly
00:00:16.780 rejected ideas. Morning Joe bows and kisses Trump's ring in a humiliating and debasing display.
00:00:22.200 And Girl Math makes its way into the government. Talk about all that and more today on the Matt
00:00:26.260 Wall Show. Look, we're all feeling the impact of Biden's economy. Grocery prices are through the
00:00:55.980 roof, utilities keep climbing, and child care costs are absolutely crushing American families.
00:01:00.240 Many of us have been forced to rely on credit cards just to make ends meet.
00:01:03.320 Those interest rates are criminal. But here's some good news. The Fed has finally dropped interest
00:01:07.520 rates, and my friends at American Financing can help you take advantage of this opportunity.

00:02:56.800 Honduran national named Medina Uloa was stopped by Border Patrol agents in Texas. He gave them a fake
00:03:03.080 name and lied about being a juvenile. But instead of kicking him out of the country, authorities gave him
00:03:07.740 a notice to appear for a court date that everyone knew he, of course, would never actually attend.
00:03:13.060 And then Uloa was flown to Jacksonville, Florida, where he was taken in by a 46-year-old father of
00:03:17.520 four. Soon afterwards, the immigrant beat the man to death inside his own home. Now, last year,
00:03:23.460 Medina Uloa pleaded guilty to murder and received a 60-year sentence. And during the course of the
00:03:28.620 prosecution that led to that plea deal, we learned a lot of details about what actually happened.
00:03:33.240 We learned that Uloa had attempted to tamper with evidence, for example. We also learned from
00:03:39.680 home security footage that Medina Uloa pummeled his victim with a chair before repeatedly stabbing him.
00:03:45.200 But there was one critical detail that was never explained, even though it's
00:03:48.720 maybe the most important piece of the entire story. And that is, how did Medina Uloa get to
00:03:55.840 Jacksonville? Did he buy a ticket himself, even though he had no money? Did someone else buy a ticket for
00:04:03.040 him? Did he drive all that way? How did he get the car to drive? Or did Medina Uloa arrive in
00:04:10.460 Jacksonville on one of the Biden administration's secret resettlement flights, which take off in
00:04:14.800 the middle of the night and ferry thousands of illegal aliens from Texas to destinations
00:04:18.740 all over the country, maybe including Jacksonville? Now, in this case, the victim's daughter claimed
00:04:24.520 that Uloa had indeed arrived on one of those resettlement flights, and she would have reason to
00:04:29.120 know that. Again, her father had allowed this guy into his home, and presumably they talked about how
00:04:34.240 he had arrived in Jacksonville in the first place. But for their part, the Biden administration has
00:04:39.100 refused to say anything about the arrangement one way or another. Even when a Republican congressman
00:04:43.360 formally asked the Biden administration to explain exactly what happened, they didn't confirm or deny
00:04:48.960 that they had flown Uloa into Jacksonville. Now, of course, that almost certainly means that they did
00:04:53.820 indeed put him on one of their many charter jets for illegal aliens. And therefore, when Uloa committed
00:05:00.080 murder, the DHS knew that they were complicit. Their policy had facilitated a brutal killing.
00:05:06.080 And so they decided not to talk about it. That was their solution. The federal government under Joe
00:05:11.320 Biden and Kamala Harris apparently decided that they'd rather cover up their role in a homicide instead
00:05:16.180 of taking action to prevent future homicides from occurring. So it's not surprising that those
00:05:21.280 homicides have continued to occur in similar fashion. As you may have heard, the trial of 26-year-old
00:05:27.100 Venezuelan illegal alien Jose Ibarra got underway this week in Athens, Georgia. Ibarra is accused of
00:05:34.260 murdering Lakin Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student, near a jogging trail at the University of Georgia
00:05:38.960 back in February. Prosecutors say that Ibarra put on a hoodie-style jacket and a black hat and black
00:05:44.740 disposable gloves, and then went off to, quote, hunt for females on the university's campus.
00:05:51.940 Now, what we didn't know until yesterday is how exactly Ibarra got to Georgia in the first place.
00:05:58.680 The government certainly didn't bother to tell us, but during the trial yesterday, we learned
00:06:02.680 the answer to that question. According to Ibarra's roommate, just like Medina Uloa, he received a
00:06:08.340 taxpayer-funded resettlement flight. In the case of Ibarra, the flight took him from New York to Georgia.
00:06:14.240 In other words, the Biden-Harris administration didn't just enable the murder of Lakin Riley
00:06:19.860 with their lax border policies, they also facilitated the murder, by actually transporting
00:06:25.700 the murderer to the place where he committed the crime. Watch.
00:06:30.060 What else that you got to know, that you lived with, while you were here in Athens?
00:06:35.900 Alguien más que llegaste a conocer, que vivió con ustedes aquí en Athens?
00:06:40.100 Giancarlo Hernández.
00:06:41.520 Giancarlo Hernández.
00:06:43.280 Okay.
00:06:44.560 And how did you get to Athens?
00:06:47.520 ÂżY cĂłmo llegaron a Athens?
00:06:49.060 In New York, we asked, in Manhattan, in Hotel Roofing, Roosevelt, in Manhattan, we requested
00:07:08.240 for a humanitarian flight to come here to Atlanta.
00:07:12.200 And when was that?
00:07:15.080 ¿Y cuándo fue eso?
00:07:16.960 A lo, como el, de nueve a diez de septiembre.
00:07:21.120 Around the ninth, tenth of September.
00:07:25.500 And where did you go when you arrived in Athens?
00:07:28.980 ¿Y cuándo llegó a Athens, a dónde fue?
00:07:32.300 Al aeropuerto Aiport.
00:07:34.120 Al aeropuerto de Atlanta.
00:07:40.620 Al aeropuerto.
00:07:41.480 Jackson, Jackson.
00:07:43.360 So that's great.
00:07:45.400 Our trials in this country can't even be in English anymore.
00:07:49.460 So, you know, if we had a Department of Homeland Security that actually cared about securing
00:07:54.480 the homeland, as it would seem that they should care about, because that's in the title of
00:07:58.680 their agency, we wouldn't be hearing about this now, months after the fact, and weeks
00:08:03.140 after the election, not incidentally, we'd have heard about it back in February.
00:08:07.880 The government would have acknowledged that they paid the airfare for a murderer, and there
00:08:11.940 would have been months of congressional hearings by now.
00:08:14.660 We know every detail about how exactly this brutal killer was ferried throughout the country
00:08:18.800 at taxpayer expense.
00:08:20.440 Instead, the Biden-Harris administration refused to say a word about this.
00:08:23.500 It fell to a local prosecutor in Georgia to reveal that the federal government was covering
00:08:27.340 this criminal's airfare.
00:08:28.500 This is especially egregious when you consider that the DHS knew that Ibarra was a member
00:08:34.720 of one of the most dangerous gangs on the planet.
00:08:37.700 New York Post and News Nation have confirmed that, according to DHS sources, Jose Ibarra
00:08:41.360 was a member of Tren de Aragua.
00:08:43.980 And if you're keeping track, that's the same gang that's taken over several apartment complexes
00:08:49.140 in Colorado.
00:08:49.840 And this is the person they were paying to transport across the United States, which really makes
00:08:56.280 you wonder how many of those Colorado gang members were transported for free from the
00:09:01.400 southern border.
00:09:02.260 I mean, how did they get into Colorado?
00:09:04.920 It also makes you wonder when we can expect criminal trials for the DHS officials who allowed
00:09:10.800 this to happen.
00:09:11.740 They were transporting a criminal that they knew or should have known was a member of a violent
00:09:16.720 transnational criminal organization.
00:09:19.900 How's that any different from offering, say, a member of ISIS a free one-way ticket to Manhattan?
00:09:25.760 At a certain point, you can't pretend to be surprised at the natural and foreseeable
00:09:29.260 consequences of government policy.
00:09:32.540 When you facilitate the transportation of dangerous criminals who are members of notoriously
00:09:36.460 brutal gangs, you don't get to feign astonishment when they go on to commit brutal crimes.
00:09:40.900 And it's not as if Ibarra wasn't sending up red flags left and right, even apart from
00:09:46.180 his gang ties.
00:09:47.240 After the Biden administration led him into the country in September of 2022, supposedly
00:09:51.020 due to a lack of bed space, which doesn't seem especially relevant since we don't need
00:09:55.840 bed space to deport him.
00:09:58.360 But since then, Ibarra somehow arrived in New York City.
00:10:01.820 And once there, local officials put him up in the swanky Roosevelt Hotel in midtown Manhattan.
00:10:07.180 While he was there, he had access to free health care, free housing, free meals, even legal
00:10:12.700 services to help him prepare his fraudulent asylum application.
00:10:16.420 But that wasn't enough to keep Ibarra out of trouble.
00:10:18.820 In August of 2023, Ibarra was arrested in New York for acting in a manner to injure a child
00:10:23.840 less than 17.
00:10:25.120 He was also hit with a vehicle license violation.
00:10:27.860 It's according to DHS officials.
00:10:29.840 But the local DA, Alvin Bragg, was too busy prosecuting the leading presidential candidate
00:10:33.700 for an ancient business records violation, so he couldn't be bothered to prosecute Ibarra
00:10:38.520 or give a heads up to federal immigration authorities.
00:10:41.920 So Ibarra was released quickly and without any bond.
00:10:46.140 Then Ibarra headed to another sanctuary city, thanks to the Biden administration's resettlement
00:10:49.900 flight, Athens-Clark County, Georgia.
00:10:52.540 On October 27th, he was given a citation for shoplifting.
00:10:57.100 Under the left-wing DA's policies, Ibarra wasn't arrested for the offense at the time.
00:11:00.980 Instead, he was ordered to appear for a court hearing in December.
00:11:05.260 But, you know, of course, Ibarra ignored that hearing, so an arrest warrant was issued on
00:11:09.420 December 20th, but he was never arrested.
00:11:12.220 For months, he wasn't bothered by local authorities or by Biden's DHS, despite all of the crimes
00:11:16.800 he committed in this country, across the country, and despite an active arrest warrant.
00:11:22.100 He wasn't bothered in any way until February when he put on his disposable gloves and murdered
00:11:27.980 Lake and Riley.
00:11:28.640 And as the prosecutor outlined today, it was a vicious, brutal killing.
00:11:33.880 Riley fought for 18 minutes, up until the point that her smartwatch recorded that her
00:11:38.300 heart had stopped.
00:11:40.720 And when Lakin Riley refused to be his rape victim, he bashed her skull in with a rock
00:11:51.840 repeatedly.
00:11:53.220 That is what this case is all about.
00:11:59.960 The evidence will show that Lakin fought.
00:12:05.300 She fought for her life.
00:12:08.580 She fought for her dignity.
00:12:10.300 So the medical examiner, Lakin was sent to GBI headquarters in Atlanta or Decatur, where
00:12:17.540 Dr. DeMarco conducted an autopsy on her the very next day after her murder.
00:12:21.560 What the medical examiner found is that Lakin had a complex, excuse me, depressed skull fracture
00:12:31.380 on the left side of her head.
00:12:33.220 And she had eight other lacerations on the left side of her head, which literally looked
00:12:40.800 like holes.
00:12:41.340 She had a small subarachnoid hemorrhage on the right side of her head.
00:12:46.120 And she had multiple, multiple abrasions to her face, her neck and her torso.
00:12:51.580 She also had what's called petechia in both eyes, which is consistent with some form of
00:12:57.920 asphyxia.
00:12:58.460 Now, one of the many ways that investigators were able to tie Ibarra to this crime is that
00:13:04.900 just hours before he killed Riley, he posted photos of himself on Snapchat.
00:13:09.360 And in those photos, he was wearing a black Adidas hat, a blue jacket and a black and white
00:13:13.520 shirt.
00:13:14.580 Then after the killing, a man wearing the same clothing was captured on a ring style camera,
00:13:19.040 discarding a blue jacket into a dumpster.
00:13:21.960 And when that jacket was tested, it contained Lakin Riley's DNA.
00:13:25.620 Watch.
00:13:25.740 At 944 in the morning, about 15 minutes after Lakin Riley's heart stopped, this is what they
00:13:36.540 see.
00:13:37.620 So they saw an individual who did that they did not know who it was at the time, dump
00:13:42.820 the jacket in the dumpster and go to those bushes there and dump something there.
00:13:48.740 As you recall, the country endured a year of rioting over George Floyd, costing billions
00:13:54.440 of dollars and leading to the deaths of several Americans, police stations and churches were
00:13:58.400 torched, federal courthouses were attacked, small businesses were destroyed, members of
00:14:03.460 Congress wore kente cloth and got down on one knee.
00:14:06.160 It was all in service of a lie that Floyd's death was the result of systemic injustice instead
00:14:10.620 of his own decisions.
00:14:12.240 In particular, his decision to spend his life committing serious crimes, culminating in an
00:14:15.800 attempt to defraud a business while high on enough fentanyl to kill a horse.
00:14:19.180 Now, the murder of Lakin Riley, on the other hand, actually was the result of systemic injustice.
00:14:26.180 The government provided her killer access to this country in violation of the law.
00:14:30.860 Then the government gave him free housing and meals and airfare to go wherever he wanted,
00:14:37.740 which is very common, by the way.
00:14:39.540 As House investigators found earlier this year, more than 50 airports have been used by DHS
00:14:43.780 to transport more than 400,000 illegal aliens in this manner since January of last year.
00:14:50.740 More than a million illegal aliens are on the waiting list right now.
00:14:54.880 And the government did all this without putting it up for a vote or asking whether Americans
00:14:59.940 wanted this to happen, even though overwhelmingly, of course, they don't.
00:15:03.700 And then after one of these illegal aliens brutally murders a nursing student, the President
00:15:08.600 of the United States finally apologized, but not to the victim or her family.
00:15:14.120 Instead, he apologized for calling the killer an illegal during the State of the Union after
00:15:18.040 mispronouncing Lakin Riley's name.
00:15:20.080 Here's that again to refresh our memories.
00:15:24.880 Lincoln, Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal.
00:15:40.000 That's right.
00:15:40.660 You use the word illegal when talking about the man who allegedly killed Lakin Riley.
00:15:47.060 An undocumented person.
00:15:48.980 And I shouldn't have used illegal.
00:15:50.280 I shouldn't have.
00:15:50.560 It's undocumented.
00:15:51.240 When I spoke about the difference between Trump and me, one of the things I talked about
00:15:55.140 on the border was that his, the way he talks about vermin, the way he talks about these
00:15:59.420 people polluting the blood, I talked about what I'm not going to do, what I won't do.
00:16:03.820 I'm not going to treat any of these people with disrespect.
00:16:08.240 Look, they built the country.
00:16:09.300 Now, when Biden made that apology, he knew that Riley's death could have been prevented several
00:16:17.520 times in several different cities.
00:16:19.660 His DHS knew that they had assisted the perpetrator of this heinous crime several times over.
00:16:24.200 But the only apology that Biden could muster was to criminals like Jose Ibarra.
00:16:29.000 He said illegal aliens built this country, which doesn't even begin to make sense.
00:16:34.600 He didn't say a word about the role of these secret resettlement flights and causing Lakin
00:16:38.500 Riley's death, maybe because he was hoping we'd never find out about it.
00:16:42.480 But now we have found out about it, thanks to testimony from the killer's roommate, who
00:16:45.660 incidentally is also in the country illegal, illegally, of course.
00:16:49.660 This is what the open borders agenda means in practice.
00:16:52.500 We're once again seeing how a policy that's supposedly premised on compassion for illegal immigrants
00:16:57.700 in reality translates into brutality and death for American citizens.
00:17:02.240 That's been obvious to most people on the right for a while now, but now it's getting
00:17:07.600 hard for anyone to ignore.
00:17:10.080 That's why the exit polls show Kamala Harris losing on the immigration issue across party
00:17:13.760 lines.
00:17:15.000 The vast majority of Americans recognize at this point that we shouldn't be flying these
00:17:18.800 illegal aliens throughout the country in the middle of the night or at any other time
00:17:21.660 of day.
00:17:22.620 We should be flying them out of the country, back to wherever they came from.
00:17:27.140 That's what the incoming Trump administration is promising to do.
00:17:29.680 And unlike the Biden administration, the new administration isn't going to hide these
00:17:33.620 flights.
00:17:35.100 The new border czar is openly promoting them already.
00:17:38.020 And why shouldn't he?
00:17:39.560 Enforcing the law is overwhelmingly popular.
00:17:42.140 It's what Americans want.
00:17:44.020 And the great thing is when you're implementing a policy that's actually popular and it's what
00:17:48.360 people want, it's what Americans want, you don't need to do it under the cover of darkness.
00:17:53.580 You can talk about it on cable news, which is exactly what Trump's nominees are doing.
00:17:57.120 This is a change that, as this trial in Georgia demonstrates, can't come soon enough.
00:18:04.000 With the killing of Lake and Riley months after the fact, we have discovered that the U.S.
00:18:07.840 government was effectively an accomplice to the murder of an American citizen.
00:18:12.340 And she's not the only one.
00:18:14.240 They didn't just create the conditions that allowed this killing to happen by opening the
00:18:17.520 border.
00:18:18.240 They did do that, but they also facilitated the killing by providing repeated material support
00:18:23.120 to the murderer.
00:18:23.860 Then they tried to cover it up.
00:18:27.100 And by the way, six Republican senators voted to confirm the DHS secretary who oversaw all
00:18:31.420 of this.
00:18:32.540 Something to keep in mind as the Trump cabinet appointments make their way through the Senate.
00:18:37.220 Any senator who voted for Alejandro Mayorkas should explain that vote.
00:18:42.120 And those senators, the ones who are still in office anyway, should explain what they plan
00:18:46.580 to do going forward to dismantle the open borders agenda instead of enabling it, as they have
00:18:50.720 been doing.
00:18:51.060 And the murder of Lake and Riley makes it very clear that this change is long overdue.
00:18:57.420 Once the killer is brought to justice in Georgia, all of his many enablers in the government should
00:19:01.940 also be held to account.
00:19:04.280 It's the only way to prevent a murder like this from happening again.
00:19:07.800 And it's the only way to ensure that Americans can have any trust in their government going
00:19:11.660 forward.

00:20:51.960 Jen Psaki has some thoughts about what the Democrats should do going forward after suffering
00:20:56.400 such a catastrophic and humiliating defeat.
00:20:59.460 And Jen's master plan is that Democrats should continue doing all the things that got them
00:21:05.420 beat in the first place.
00:21:06.400 That is, that's her plan.
00:21:07.600 That's her bright idea.
00:21:09.180 Here it is.
00:21:10.820 There's obviously a lot of soul-searching right now going on within the Democratic Party,
00:21:15.340 and that's a good thing.
00:21:16.580 But what I worry about is that in the course of all that soul-searching, some Democrats might
00:21:21.520 reach the wrong sweeping conclusions.
00:21:23.740 And there are a lot of issues that fall into that bucket.
00:21:25.860 But one in particular that stuck out to me is transgender rights.
00:21:30.020 Republicans funds hundreds of millions of dollars on anti-trans ads this election cycle,
00:21:33.740 including one that showed Vice President Harris talking about government funding for gender
00:21:38.480 reaffirming care for prisoners and detainees.
00:21:41.840 If that sounds like a particularly obscure issue, it is, because it applies to a tiny group
00:21:46.340 of people.
00:21:47.240 And it's also a policy that, by the way, was in place during the first Trump presidency.
00:21:51.200 Another one of the lines that ran over and over again in those ads and throughout right-wing
00:21:55.300 media is this idea that America is faced with a crisis of boys playing in girls' sports.
00:22:00.920 Now, these ads created this perception that the issues of trans kids playing sports was
00:22:05.960 dominating schools across the country, which is completely false.
00:22:11.080 Some people got pulled into that argument.
00:22:12.880 I mean, immediately after the election, Congressman Seth Moulton told the New York Times that,
00:22:16.940 quote, Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally
00:22:21.140 honest about the challenges many Americans face.
00:22:23.700 I have two little girls.
00:22:25.040 I don't want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete.
00:22:29.380 But as a Democrat, I'm supposed to be afraid to say that.
00:22:33.240 And then last weekend, Congressman Moulton came on this network to discuss those comments.
00:22:38.360 I was just speaking authentically as a dad about one of many issues where I think we're
00:22:43.640 just out of touch with the majority of voters.
00:22:46.860 And I stand by my position.
00:22:48.640 You know, maybe I didn't get all the words exactly right.
00:22:51.380 But the point is that the backlash I perceived proves my point that we can't even have these
00:22:57.960 discussions as a party.
00:23:00.100 Look, reflection is good.
00:23:01.820 But if that were actually an issue at thousands of schools across the country,
00:23:05.760 it would be worthy of a debate.
00:23:08.380 But there are just incredibly few examples of transgender girls playing in youth sports.
00:23:14.300 And when we see those examples, there is an evidence that these kids are a threat to safety
00:23:17.880 or fairness.
00:23:18.340 Okay, so a few, very few Democrats have ever so cautiously spoken up to say, you know, hey
00:23:26.180 guys, maybe we should cool it a bit with this trans stuff.
00:23:29.780 Nobody agrees with us.
00:23:31.660 Like, nobody in this country or in the history of the world anywhere on Earth at any time agrees
00:23:38.600 with us or ever has agreed with us about this.
00:23:41.740 So maybe we should take that into account.
00:23:43.460 Yeah, and a few Democrats have said that, a few.
00:23:49.880 And they've been immediately shut down and chastised by people like Jen Psaki, who insist
00:23:54.360 that no, they must stay on the trans ship as it sinks.
00:23:59.400 Ride that thing all the way to the seafloor.
00:24:01.320 That's what Jen Psaki is saying.
00:24:05.920 And what argument does she make in favor of that?
00:24:10.420 Well, she makes basically the only argument that people on her side of the issue ever
00:24:16.640 make, which is to say she makes no argument at all.
00:24:21.180 Notice, she doesn't even attempt to actually defend the pro-trans position on any of these
00:24:25.960 points.
00:24:26.260 She doesn't explain why we should let boys into girls' sports or men into women's locker
00:24:32.220 rooms.
00:24:34.160 They never explain that.
00:24:35.280 They can't.
00:24:35.760 So it's amazing that we're supposedly having this, quote unquote, debate about the issue,
00:24:41.500 but one side of the debate has not even attempted to defend or articulate what their point of
00:24:47.480 view actually is, because it's indefensible, and they know it.
00:24:54.980 So really, this is simple.
00:24:56.380 I mean, of course, it's simple.
00:24:58.020 Boys are boys.
00:24:58.820 Girls are girls.
00:25:00.600 End of story.
00:25:01.440 But if you're going to claim that we should allow males in female sports or into female
00:25:07.460 bathrooms, you have to at least begin by explaining why.
00:25:14.140 We shouldn't even have to explain why we don't want them there.
00:25:18.200 We shouldn't have to explain it because it's self-evident.
00:25:21.840 But also, the burden of proof isn't on us.
00:25:24.220 Okay, you're coming in and proposing a new system, right?
00:25:31.480 If you're on the left, if you're Jen Psaki, you're proposing something new.
00:25:36.000 The old system was working just fine.
00:25:37.880 The old system where girl bathrooms are for girls and girl sports teams are for girls,
00:25:44.240 like, that system worked fine.
00:25:45.560 It was working perfectly fine.
00:25:48.120 A lot of problems in the world, a lot of things that don't work, but that was not one
00:25:51.380 of the problems.
00:25:51.900 It was working.
00:25:53.820 There was no issue.
00:25:55.480 So now you're coming in and you're saying, well, we need to change that.
00:26:00.420 Why?
00:26:01.580 Why should we change it?
00:26:04.680 You don't get to say, well, why don't you want us to change it?
00:26:07.420 No, no, no, no.
00:26:09.160 Why do you want to change?
00:26:10.280 Why should we?
00:26:12.560 This system is working fine.
00:26:14.520 You want to make this change.
00:26:15.480 Why do you want to make it?
00:26:17.080 What's the benefit?
00:26:18.680 What problem does that solve exactly?
00:26:21.900 You know, if the problem that it solves is that some boys are sad if they can't use
00:26:31.100 the girls' bathroom, well, that's not a problem.
00:26:34.320 And anyway, it's already been established that plenty of girls are sad and infuriated
00:26:39.320 and worried and scared when you let the boys in.
00:26:43.320 So the emotional argument is at best a wash.
00:26:46.780 I mean, that's being very, very generous.
00:26:49.340 At best, it's a wash.
00:26:50.700 So what else do you have?
00:26:51.540 Well, you have nothing.
00:26:52.120 So all they can do, as Jen Psaki just did, is from there is claim that, well, it's a small
00:27:00.180 issue and there aren't very many men in women's sports.
00:27:04.100 There aren't very many men receiving tax-funded sex changes in prison.
00:27:07.260 But first of all, that argument obviously cuts both ways, no pun intended.
00:27:14.980 If there are only relatively few boys trying to play in girls' sports, and you could say,
00:27:21.020 well, then why do you care so much if they play?
00:27:22.280 Why do you care so much if they don't?
00:27:26.400 If it's just a handful of boys, if that's what it is, it's just a handful, just a handful
00:27:30.360 of athletes, of wannabe female athletes who are actually boys that want to play in girls'
00:27:38.080 sports, well, then what's the problem?
00:27:43.340 If the issue isn't important or relevant enough to bother banning boys from girls' sports,
00:27:49.580 then how is it important or relevant enough to let them in to begin with?
00:27:55.240 And as for the tax-funded surgeries, again, if it's only one or two prisoners asking for
00:28:00.660 the surgeries, it should be no big deal and not very difficult to just say no.
00:28:07.240 I mean, why can't you just say no?
00:28:10.040 Like, it barely impacts anyone, according to you.
00:28:14.000 So it's a non-issue.
00:28:16.060 Well, okay then, then just let it be a non-issue, if that's true.
00:28:20.080 Let's just go back to the old system.
00:28:22.120 No boys and girls' sports, no tax-funded sex changes.
00:28:26.300 And at worst, according to you, a small handful of people will be inconvenienced and upset.
00:28:33.340 Why should that matter?
00:28:35.440 I mean, who cares?
00:28:36.020 You're always going to have a small handful of people that are upset about anything.
00:28:38.960 Like, no matter what policy is in place, no matter what you're doing, you're going to
00:28:42.200 find a handful of people who don't like it, at least.
00:28:44.420 So they want to have it both ways, as always.
00:28:47.240 They want to claim that there are hardly any boys playing in girls' sports.
00:28:52.740 But then if you ban them, they say that it's an egregious assault on the whole trans community,
00:28:59.760 and it will do untold and nonspecific damage to countless trans people.
00:29:04.320 Which is it?
00:29:07.680 You know, the reality is that the exact numbers are totally irrelevant to the fundamental point.
00:29:13.620 The fundamental point is that boys are not girls, and therefore should not be in girls' sports.
00:29:18.780 And it's impossible to transition your gender.
00:29:23.060 So gender transition surgeries are a scam.
00:29:25.360 And taxpayers should not be forced to pay for a scam, especially not on behalf of criminals.
00:29:32.640 So whether there's one boy trying to play in girls' sports or one million boys, doesn't matter.
00:29:40.540 The point remains true, regardless.
00:29:45.660 And also, by the way, there are a lot more than one.
00:29:48.180 Now, it's impossible to know exactly how many, you know, how many male athletes are in female sports.
00:29:56.540 We don't know exactly.
00:29:57.500 Newsweek published an article last year claiming that the number, quote, can't be more than 100.
00:30:02.160 That's what they said.
00:30:04.020 There's no real basis for that.
00:30:05.500 They have no evidence that it isn't more than 100.
00:30:08.040 But that's their estimate that they, you know, published.
00:30:11.840 And, by the way, not more than 100, in this case, obviously means around 100 or about 100.
00:30:17.440 Because if they thought that it was, you know, 5 or 10, if you think that it's only 5 boys and girls' sports, you wouldn't say, well, it's not more than 100.
00:30:27.960 So they seem to think it's around 100.
00:30:31.040 Meanwhile, the UN published a report just a few weeks ago saying that female athletes have lost 900 medals to trans athletes, to men, since all this began.
00:30:42.040 And that's what they're into.
00:30:42.980 So these are significant numbers.
00:30:44.720 But whatever the actual precise number of trans-identified males in female sports, it's clearly enough to be a problem.
00:30:52.720 Even one would be a problem.
00:30:56.160 But this is beyond that.
00:30:57.400 I mean, this is a trend.
00:30:59.640 It is a growing trend.
00:31:00.720 And that's the other thing.
00:31:01.680 The point of banning them from women's sports, it isn't just to kick out the men who are currently playing in women's sports.
00:31:09.320 I mean, we want to do that.
00:31:10.820 But also, it's to prevent future.
00:31:13.200 It's to prevent it from happening in the future.
00:31:14.920 So even if it were true that, well, this isn't a real problem right now.
00:31:21.940 Okay, well, we want to make sure that it's not a real problem in the future.
00:31:26.020 Okay, that's not true.
00:31:26.560 It is a problem now.
00:31:28.080 But even if that were the case.
00:31:30.640 So, okay, well, let's make sure it doesn't become a problem then.
00:31:35.260 So no matter how you slice it, you come back to, they just have no argument.
00:31:44.320 And so every video that you see like this, where you've got somebody on the left saying, no, we can't abandon the trans issue,
00:31:51.480 what you'll notice is that they will never actually, they'll say, we can't abandon our point on this,
00:31:58.320 but they will not articulate what their point actually is.
00:32:01.460 All right, moving on to this, here's a pretty remarkable moment on Morning Joe yesterday.
00:32:09.180 Watch.
00:32:10.440 Over the past week, Joe and I have heard from so many people, from political leaders to regular citizens,
00:32:16.620 deeply dismayed by several of President-elect Trump's cabinet selections, and they are scared.
00:32:23.900 Last Thursday, we expressed our own concerns on this broadcast and even said we would appreciate the opportunity
00:32:29.840 to speak with the President-elect himself.
00:32:32.880 On Friday, we were given the opportunity to do just that.
00:32:38.540 Joe and I went to Mar-a-Lago to meet personally with President-elect Trump.
00:32:43.760 It was the first time we have seen him in seven years.
00:32:48.780 Now, we talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportation, threats of political retribution against political opponents, and media outlets.
00:32:58.120 We talked about that a good bit.
00:32:59.980 And it's going to come as no surprise to anybody who watches this show, has watched it over the past year or over the past decade,
00:33:09.240 that we didn't see eye to eye on a lot of issues, and we told him so.
00:33:13.480 What we did agree on was to restart communications.
00:33:18.320 My father often spoke with world leaders, with whom he and the United States profoundly disagreed.
00:33:25.080 That's a task shared by reporters and commentators alike.
00:33:28.840 We had not spoken to President Trump since March of 2020, other than a personal call Joe made to Trump on the morning
00:33:37.820 after the attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:33:40.740 In this meeting, President Trump was tearful, he was upbeat, he seemed interested in finding common ground with Democrats on some of the most divisive issues.
00:33:52.620 And for those asking why we would go speak to the president-elect during such fraught times, especially between us,
00:34:00.300 I guess I would ask back, why wouldn't we?
00:34:04.840 Five years of political warfare has deeply divided Washington and the country.
00:34:09.320 I can't watch any more of this.
00:34:12.320 That is, that's what we call kissing the ring, and it's amazing.
00:34:16.320 Kind of tough to watch, embarrassing to watch.
00:34:19.420 Embarrassing to see people debase themselves this way, groveling like this.
00:34:22.860 Not that it's debasing to speak to Donald Trump, but it's debasing to come crawling back, groveling,
00:34:28.360 after spending the last eight years obsessively attacking the guy.
00:34:31.460 Okay. Now, why are they doing this?
00:34:35.380 Well, they aren't doing it because they want to heal our divided nation or whatever nonsense they're talking about.
00:34:41.820 That's for damn sure.
00:34:43.540 They aren't even doing it because they lost the election.
00:34:47.800 You know, they're not doing it because Trump's going to be in power now and they feel like they have to be nice to him
00:34:53.460 or because they want to be close to him to benefit from the power that he has.
00:34:58.260 I don't think any of those are the reasons.
00:35:00.420 The reasons are very simple, actually.
00:35:01.860 The reasons are ratings.
00:35:04.300 Their ratings are in the toilet.
00:35:06.180 Their whole network is dying.
00:35:08.720 There just isn't a very big audience for constant Trump bashing anymore.
00:35:12.540 That's what it comes down to.
00:35:14.160 People are tired of it.
00:35:15.000 They're bored of it.
00:35:15.600 They're finally realizing that Trump bashing is a very narrow lane.
00:35:22.640 You know, because you're only going to appeal to Democrats, obviously.
00:35:25.060 And even in that group, you're only appealing to the Democrats who still have an appetite and a desire
00:35:29.380 to hear you complain about Donald Trump relentlessly.
00:35:33.640 That gets old.
00:35:35.000 You know, even for people who agree with it, it becomes old.
00:35:36.820 I mean, I can remember in Obama's second term, you know, I kind of stopped listening to a lot of the talk radio
00:35:44.820 that I had previously enjoyed simply because I was just bored of hearing complaints about Obama all the time.
00:35:51.360 And now the difference is that Obama was actually a disastrously terrible president,
00:35:55.560 and I think his presidency will go down as the worst in American history.
00:36:01.840 So there was a lot to complain about.
00:36:03.760 Don't get me wrong.
00:36:04.680 And I'm not saying I warmed to the guy by the end, not remotely.
00:36:09.080 It's just that I got sick of hearing about him.
00:36:11.740 You know, you just get, it's like hearing about the same guy over and over and over again for years
00:36:16.620 and hearing what a terrible person he is and what a terrible president.
00:36:21.040 Yeah, he is.
00:36:22.560 That's true in Obama's case.
00:36:25.480 But I don't need to hear that every single day for eight years.
00:36:28.020 Like, I get it.
00:36:28.680 So this kind of exhaustion can set in regardless of the president.
00:36:35.340 But in this case, it's an even bigger problem for MSNBC because Trump just won in a landslide.
00:36:40.780 And also, he'll be a good president, already was a good president, a good president enacting an agenda that 75 million Americans voted for.
00:36:52.120 So whining about him every day puts you in a narrow lane within a narrow lane.
00:36:56.400 And you've automatically ruled out the majority of the country, you know, from listening.
00:37:03.420 So it's simply a ratings game, I think.
00:37:05.540 They're trying to rebrand.
00:37:07.340 They're going to try to, you know, pivot into not becoming committed Trump boosters, you know.
00:37:15.360 So that's what they were back in 2015.
00:37:19.040 But I don't think they're going to go that far.
00:37:20.820 I would guess that they're going to attempt kind of a Bill Maher-style transition.
00:37:26.620 You know, they're going to try to reposition themselves as sort of the level-headed liberals who, you know, aren't Trump supporters,
00:37:35.020 but also don't feel the need to attack him constantly.
00:37:37.040 We'll even agree with him on occasion sometimes, pointing out some of the excesses on your own side.
00:37:45.500 Like, that's probably what they're going to try to transition into, if I had to guess.
00:37:50.660 And not because they believe in it or for any reason other than simply that's where the audience is and they recognize that.
00:37:57.960 But I don't think it's going to work for them.
00:37:59.380 I don't think that Mika and Joe Scarborough can carve out like a Bill Maher-style lane.
00:38:09.960 I just don't think it's going to work.
00:38:12.860 Okay, Breitbart has this.
00:38:14.120 Leftists have a master plan to ensure that President-elect Donald Trump's economy tanks.
00:38:18.840 They're not going to buy anything.
00:38:21.680 Leftists across the country are still reeling from Trump's historic comeback victory,
00:38:25.520 which saw him sweeping all seven swing states.
00:38:27.660 There was a sizable shift in the electorate and a clear mandate for change,
00:38:32.180 but some leftists ardently disagree and have a plan to tank what everyone anticipates to be a strong economy under Trump's leadership.
00:38:38.540 One leftist account with 127,000 followers said,
00:38:43.340 Trump will not have a good economy because we don't have to let him.
00:38:46.700 I myself plan on paying my bills and saving every penny beyond that.
00:38:51.480 I will not contribute to this economy in any other way.
00:38:54.080 This individual is also pledging to refrain from eating out unless it's an emergency that cannot be avoided.
00:39:01.400 You know, one of those emergencies where you have to go to a restaurant.
00:39:05.020 Further, there will be no going to the movies, sporting events, or any local attractions.
00:39:13.740 New furniture or household goods will wait until 2028.
00:39:16.760 I'm going to install a few other search bars and avoid Google as much as possible.
00:39:20.760 I will not buy a new car before 2028.
00:39:22.640 I will do everything in my power to hold on to as many dollars as possible.
00:39:25.640 Another user with 1.3 million followers says,
00:39:30.280 Over the next four years, I highly suggest folks tighten their belts and spend as little as possible,
00:39:34.280 except for the essentials like food, utilities, rent, etc.
00:39:37.180 After riding the coattails of President Biden's amazing economy for his first six months in office,
00:39:41.540 Trump is going to destroy it with his dumb policies.
00:39:43.940 Not buying extra shit will help sink his economy, too.
00:39:46.680 It won't be hard since everything will be 300% more expensive.
00:39:50.200 Save that money. Pass it on.
00:39:51.400 Okay, so if you're keeping track at home, first we had leftist women saying that they were going to get back at Trump
00:40:01.440 by refusing to have sex with random men.
00:40:04.680 And now we have some leftists saying that they're going to exact vengeance by saving their money
00:40:11.620 and not making frivolous purchases.
00:40:15.440 These are positive lifestyle changes.
00:40:18.740 Like, yes, you should stop having sex with random men.
00:40:24.140 Yes, you should waste less money and save more of your money.
00:40:28.240 These are improvements that you can make to your life, and you should.
00:40:32.720 They're objectively good choices.
00:40:34.840 So the funny thing is that on the left, it seems that they only make improvements out of spite.
00:40:40.740 You know, it's the only way to get them to do the right thing is to make them mad,
00:40:47.740 and then they'll do the right thing to punish you somehow.
00:40:53.140 I'll show you.
00:40:54.900 I'm going to live responsibly now.
00:40:57.600 How do you like that, huh?
00:41:00.180 Next thing you know, they're going to be eating a more nutritious diet, getting more exercise,
00:41:03.920 all as part of their diabolical plan to punish Donald Trump.
00:41:09.620 Now, I guess that, you know, as the saying goes, living well is the best revenge,
00:41:14.080 but I think these leftists have maybe taken that a bit too literally.
00:41:18.500 I don't know.
00:41:19.400 Christmas is coming, and let's be honest, the woke corporations are already planning ways to ruin it.
00:41:23.440 Get ahead of the holiday chaos with Jeremy's Razors, where we're fighting the left and saving Christmas early.

00:41:47.380 The number one documentary of the decade is now Academy Award Submitted.
00:41:51.540 You heard that right.
00:41:52.540 Submitted.
00:41:53.300 We are officially potential nominees at the Academy Awards.
00:41:57.740 Of course, we're talking about Am I Racist?
00:41:59.200 My follow-up to the cultural phenomenon, What is a Woman?
00:42:01.620 The most asked question about Am I Racist is, was it real?
00:42:04.920 The shocking answer is yes.
00:42:06.340 Everything you see in the movie is real, and lucky for you guys, I included exclusive bonus footage,
00:42:10.600 where I break down exactly how we pulled it all off.
00:42:12.960 The only place to watch Am I Racist and all the exclusive bonus content is on Daily Wire Plus.
00:42:17.300 Stream it right now.
00:42:18.960 Now let's get to our daily cancellation.
00:42:20.000 A while ago on the show, we discovered the concept of girl math.
00:42:29.880 For those who need a refresher course on this academic subject, girl math describes the sorts of mental calculations that women make when they're out shopping.
00:42:37.600 Girl math is less math and more magical thinking.
00:42:40.700 So for example, according to girl math, if a woman buys some totally unnecessary item for $63, well, she just lost $63.
00:42:50.800 However, if that same exact item is $63, but it was originally $90, then instead of losing $63, she has just made $27.
00:43:01.620 That 30% discount immediately becomes profit for the female customer.
00:43:06.260 Now, a man might point out that even if the item was on sale, she still spent money she didn't need to spend on an item that she didn't need to buy.
00:43:15.960 The 30% discount doesn't change the fact that she's out the $63.
00:43:20.520 In fact, a man might also argue, discounts are usually fake anyway.
00:43:26.420 So most of the time, the alleged discounted price is just the price.
00:43:30.120 If the item on the shelf is $14.99, but the store claimed the regular sale price is $23.99, the alleged regular sale price is almost always imaginary.
00:43:40.880 Like, they've never actually sold the item for $23.99.
00:43:43.760 The price is always just $14.99.
00:43:46.100 The sale is a marketing ploy.
00:43:48.700 Now, this is what men so often try to explain, but to no avail.
00:43:51.840 That's how a woman can go out and buy a car full of junk that she doesn't need and still feel like she has somehow saved hundreds of dollars.
00:44:00.800 As long as she buys stuff on sale, she isn't actually spending any money in her mind.
00:44:04.860 She's making money.
00:44:07.000 So girl math taken to its logical end would mean that if you have $0 in your bank account,
00:44:11.820 you can still buy an infinite amount of merchandise on sale because you're making money.
00:44:16.320 If you make $14 an hour working retail, there's no reason why you can't buy a Lamborghini for $250,000 if the normal sale price is $300,000.
00:44:27.340 Because then they're paying you $50,000 to take the car.
00:44:31.000 $50,000 in a new car, that's a hell of a deal.
00:44:33.980 And that's kind of how girl math works.
00:44:35.740 Now, here's the question.
00:44:38.160 What happens when girls run the government?
00:44:40.780 Well, it turns out that we get a government operating on the principles of girl math.
00:44:44.880 And that brings us finally to Kathy Hokule, the governor of New York.
00:44:49.160 She just held a press conference where she made an exciting announcement.
00:44:52.580 Kathy informed the people of New York that she had just saved them $1,500 a year.
00:44:58.740 Now, it's not often that a Democrat politician saves taxpayers' money.
00:45:02.880 So this was welcome news, shocking news.
00:45:06.360 But how exactly did she pull this off?
00:45:08.920 How was she going to save New Yorkers $1,500?
00:45:13.600 Well, let's find out.
00:45:14.880 During this process, from day one, I have made affordability for New York families a top priority.
00:45:24.300 I always have, and I always will, fight to put more money in the pockets of everyday New Yorkers.
00:45:32.400 That's why, back in June, I stood up on behalf of hard-working families and simply said no.
00:45:42.020 No to a new $15 congestion toll that at that particular time was just too much.
00:45:49.400 Too many people were worrying about high costs, groceries, rent, childcare.
00:45:57.020 These are real challenges for our families.
00:46:00.060 And launching a toll that high really would have hurt a working mom or working dad trying to make ends meet,
00:46:08.480 especially someone driving in from a transportation desert or far from outside the center of the city.
00:46:14.940 And I'm proud to announce we have found a path to fund the MTA, reduce congestion and keep millions of dollars in the pockets of our commuters.
00:46:27.140 Under this plan, the MTA will implement a congestion pricing plan with a reduced daytime toll of $9 beginning in January.
00:46:38.760 You heard that correctly.
00:46:41.980 It was $15 before, and now it is $9.
00:46:46.080 That is a 40% reduction.
00:46:49.880 This lower toll will save daily commuters nearly $1,500 annually.
00:46:57.700 And that kind of money makes a big difference for our families.
00:47:02.220 So did you get that?
00:47:03.260 You see, Kathy was going to charge commuters $15 to drive to work every morning.
00:47:09.480 But now she's only going to charge $9.
00:47:13.600 So just to be clear, she is not reducing an already existing toll.
00:47:18.380 She is, in fact, adding a new toll.
00:47:21.200 And the new toll is $9, which is pretty steep.
00:47:24.020 But it could have theoretically been even steeper, which means that you're saving money every time you lose money on the toll.
00:47:29.820 This is what Kathy Hokule, professor of girl math, is claiming.
00:47:34.820 New Yorkers should thank Kathy for her generosity.
00:47:38.340 Now, every time they go through the toll now, they earn $6.
00:47:42.780 Now, on the surface, it seems like they're paying $9, but they could have been forced to pay $15, which means they're earning $6.
00:47:50.620 I mean, I think that Kathy is being a bit too modest.
00:47:53.000 Because really, this theoretical toll could have been any amount of money.
00:47:59.180 You know, the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics states that everything that can possibly happen is happening in one of the infinite number of parallel universes.
00:48:08.680 And this would mean that there's a universe where the toll is $15.
00:48:12.820 There's also a universe where the toll is $30, even $50.
00:48:19.020 Indeed, there is a universe where the poor people of New York are forced to pay a billion dollars every time they pass through the toll.
00:48:28.860 And the person who saved us from that horrible possibility is Kathy Hokule.
00:48:33.600 She just saved every commuter in New York a billion dollars a day.
00:48:40.440 Think about that.
00:48:42.900 This kind of logic is a lot of fun, actually.
00:48:45.060 I mean, it can be used in so many other contexts.
00:48:47.660 For example, and I'm not suggesting that you do this, but you could walk up to somebody on the street and rob them at gunpoint.
00:48:54.900 And then tell them that you just saved their life because you were going to rob them and kill them, but instead you're just robbing them.
00:49:00.280 Now, sure, you're still robbing them, but think about how much worse it could have been.
00:49:06.000 You have just heroically rescued this person from the evil clutches of yourself.
00:49:11.920 They should be grateful.
00:49:13.700 In fact, that was another possibility for the toll.
00:49:15.940 I mean, Kathy, she could have put in place a toll where commuters are charged $15 and then also shot.
00:49:25.300 She could have.
00:49:26.580 That's a possible world.
00:49:28.680 Imagine that.
00:49:29.180 That would have made for a pretty hectic commute to work.
00:49:33.780 But now they'll only have to pay $9 and they won't be shot.
00:49:36.880 So Kathy, save them $6 and also save their lives.
00:49:40.140 I mean, this woman, she's a hero.
00:49:43.480 I guess that's how we're supposed to see this anyway.
00:49:45.740 This is the consequence of girl math, otherwise known as gaslighting, especially when it's done by elected officials.
00:49:51.440 Now, unfortunately, there's some reason to think that plenty of people will fall for this.
00:49:55.020 There is a lot of precedent to this kind of thing with the government.
00:49:57.360 Just think about, for example, how most people react when they get a tax refund.
00:50:02.240 They seem to believe that they're being gifted free money from the government.
00:50:05.740 In reality, the government is just returning a small portion of the money they already took from you.
00:50:10.980 You're still losing money on taxes every year.
00:50:12.900 And in fact, you're losing money even on the money they return because it isn't returned with interest.
00:50:18.360 But most people don't think about that.
00:50:19.620 They're just happy to get the check.
00:50:21.160 As it turns out, the IRS is the ultimate proponent of girl math.
00:50:25.220 Our whole tax system runs on this philosophy.
00:50:28.440 It is truly a scourge.
00:50:30.240 And that is why Kathy Hochul and all of the other proponents of girl math in government and outside of it are today canceled.
00:50:39.400 That'll do it for the show today.
00:50:40.140 Thanks for watching.
00:50:40.660 Thanks for listening.
00:50:41.280 Talk to you tomorrow.
