The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1616 - Trump Just Proved The Border Crisis Has A Simple Solution

00:00:00.080 Today on the Matt Wall Show, in just a few months in office, President Trump has shown that it is possible to shut down the border and protect our country, despite what every president in my lifetime has claimed.

00:00:09.380 This is actually a simple problem to solve.

00:00:11.020 Also, we'll have my instant reaction to the Supreme Court upholding our law in Tennessee, banning child gender transition drugs and surgeries.

00:00:17.420 And some Republicans want to sell off federal land, millions of acres of it, to build housing.

00:00:21.700 I'll explain why I'm against that plan.

00:00:23.700 Plus, Democrat theater kids in Congress are officially out of control.

00:00:27.140 We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:01:58.020 Looking back on it, one of the most important moments from the last election had nothing to do with Donald Trump or Kamala Harris.

00:02:03.860 In fact, it had nothing to do with this country at all.

00:02:06.220 It was the unilateral decision by the president of El Salvador to transform his country virtually overnight from a gang-controlled, failed state into one of the safest places on the planet.

00:02:17.840 This was not an empty campaign promise or just some slogan.

00:02:21.260 He actually did it, despite the wailing from various civil liberties groups.

00:02:26.200 In 2015, El Salvador recorded more than 6,000 homicides.

00:02:30.580 Throughout all of last year, they recorded just over 100 homicides.

00:02:33.900 So, by all accounts, in just a few years, El Salvador managed to solve a crime problem that, according to all the experts, could not be solved.

00:02:42.020 To everybody living in America's rotted-out urban centers, overrun border towns, and poor communities in Appalachia,

00:02:49.040 the transformation of El Salvador was meaningful.

00:02:52.440 I mean, it wasn't your typical foreign news story with no interest to everyday people.

00:02:56.240 It wasn't the equivalent of wall-to-wall coverage about the latest developments taking place 7,000 miles away in the Middle East.

00:03:02.600 What Bukele did to save El Salvador very clearly sent the message to every American that the same kind of revival is possible in this country.

00:03:12.640 All the barriers you hear about are fake.

00:03:15.420 None of the roadblocks are real.

00:03:16.620 Places like Seattle, New York, Los Angeles, they're not actually beyond saving, no matter how dire the situation looks.

00:03:24.520 All it takes is an executive, a person in a position of leadership, who's willing to punish criminals without any remorse.

00:03:32.920 And once a country has an executive like that, things can change.

00:03:36.400 And they can change very quickly.

00:03:38.920 Less than six months into the second Trump administration, we're seeing another illustration of this principle.

00:03:43.780 Throughout the campaign, as you might remember, we were told repeatedly that the unrestricted flow of illegal aliens into this country

00:03:50.340 was a very, very difficult problem to solve, very complicated.

00:03:54.240 We were told that in order to even begin to address the issue,

00:03:56.920 we'd need to pass a law that would send billions of dollars to federal government agencies and various random NGOs.

00:04:03.860 That was the claim every Democrat and a bunch of Republicans were making.

00:04:07.980 As much as I understand that no human being ever wants to hear the words Kamala Harris ever again,

00:04:12.360 this was also a big part of her platform.

00:04:15.300 During the debate, it was her big idea for supposedly fixing the border.

00:04:19.360 So if you can bear it, here is that moment again.

00:04:23.580 We're going to turn now to immigration and border security.

00:04:26.460 We know it's an issue that's important to Republicans, Democrats, voters across the board in this country.

00:04:31.520 Vice President Harris, you were tasked by President Biden with getting to the root causes of migration from Central America.

00:04:37.260 We know that illegal border crossings reached a record high in the Biden administration.

00:04:41.860 Let me say that the United States Congress, including some of the most conservative members of the United States Senate,

00:04:48.280 came up with a border security bill, which I supported.

00:04:52.680 And that bill would have put 1,500 more border agents on the border to help those folks who are working there right now over time trying to do their job.

00:05:01.880 It would have allowed us to stem the flow of fentanyl coming into the United States.

00:05:08.200 I know there are so many families watching tonight who have been personally affected by the surge of fentanyl in our country.

00:05:14.460 That bill would have put more resources to allow us to prosecute transnational criminal organizations for trafficking in guns, drugs, and human beings.

00:05:23.220 But you know what happened to that bill?

00:05:25.520 Donald Trump got on the phone, called up some folks in Congress, and said, kill the bill.

00:05:30.340 And you know why? Because he'd prefer to run on a problem instead of fixing a problem.

00:05:36.800 And understand, this comes at a time where the people of our country actually need a leader who engages in solutions,

00:05:46.700 who actually addresses the problems at hand.

00:05:50.200 But what we have in the former president is someone who would prefer to run on a problem instead of fixing a problem.

00:05:55.880 Less than a year later, let's check in on this whole line of argument.

00:06:00.660 How is the border doing now that Donald Trump is the president of the United States?

00:06:04.860 Without a multi-billion dollar border bill, how much could his administration possibly have accomplished?

00:06:11.700 Well, it turns out, even with every federal judge in the country working in tandem to block his agenda,

00:06:16.820 and even without an expensive border bill passed by Congress,

00:06:19.960 the administration has accomplished quite a bit.

00:06:22.280 They've done what we were told was impossible many times over.

00:06:26.360 The southern border, which until very recently was a completely unsalvageable mess,

00:06:30.840 is now more secure than it's been at any time in generations.

00:06:36.100 Here's CBS News, of all places, reporting on the progress, quote,

00:06:39.100 The number of migrants crossing the U.S. southern border unlawfully continued to be at a historically low level in April,

00:06:44.620 three full months into President Trump's aggressive efforts to curtail illegal immigration,

00:06:48.960 according to internal federal data.

00:06:50.720 The number of illegal crossings during Mr. Trump's first three full months in office

00:06:54.200 represented a seismic change at the U.S.-Mexico border.

00:06:57.500 The apprehensions reported in February, March, and April are the lowest tallies recorded by the Border Patrol

00:07:01.740 in its public monthly data set, which stretches back to fiscal year 2000,

00:07:06.220 the last time Border Patrol averaged fewer than 9,000 monthly apprehensions along the southern border over a year

00:07:11.500 was in the late 1960s, according to historical agency figures.

00:07:16.680 So in other words, according to arrest data stretching back 25 years,

00:07:19.940 which is the extent of the data we have collected,

00:07:22.300 a record low number of illegal aliens are currently attempting to cross the border.

00:07:26.580 Donald Trump, in his second term, has achieved a more secure border than Bush, Obama,

00:07:31.180 and the Trump administration the first time around did.

00:07:33.920 And he's still going.

00:07:36.220 We're on pace for the lowest number of illegal aliens being apprehended at the border since the 1960s,

00:07:40.640 at which point the data becomes so imprecise that we have no real way of going back further than that.

00:07:45.520 And this did not take an act of Congress.

00:07:47.820 It didn't take hundreds of billions of dollars.

00:07:49.620 All it took was an executive who authorized federal officers to enforce the laws that are already on the books,

00:07:56.140 both at the border and throughout the country.

00:07:58.280 And once that happened, the inflow of illegal aliens stopped as quickly as it began.

00:08:03.980 So here's a chart that CBS included in their story,

00:08:06.320 which highlights just how drastic the decline in illegal migration has been.

00:08:10.920 And you'll notice there's a massive, unprecedented spike in illegal immigration right when Joe Biden takes over.

00:08:18.180 And then just as quickly, the Trump administration ends it.

00:08:21.580 You just look at that drop.

00:08:22.600 It's almost unbelievable.

00:08:23.380 And it demonstrates that, no, this was not a complicated issue to solve.

00:08:29.860 And that makes the refusal to solve this problem by every president until now seem all the more nefarious.

00:08:37.340 Now, to be clear, the only reason we're seeing these reductions and apprehensions of the border

00:08:40.520 is because the illegal aliens have gotten the message that the Trump administration is serious about immigration enforcement.

00:08:45.800 And therefore, therefore, they've, you know, they've they've stopped trying to enter this country in large part.

00:08:51.640 They understand that when they're caught, they won't be allowed into the United States anymore,

00:08:56.540 which is what the Biden administration did in virtually every case.

00:08:59.560 The New York Post just obtained data demonstrating just how common catch and release used to be under the previous administration.

00:09:05.740 These are some of the more extraordinary figures you'll you'll see.

00:09:09.540 Quote, Border Patrol agents didn't release a single migrant into the U.S. last month.

00:09:14.140 A single one, a staggering drop after the Biden administration allowed 62,000 illegal crossers in the country in May 2024.

00:09:22.620 Agents caught 8,725 migrants crossing illegally at the southern border last month.

00:09:27.220 It's a 93 percent decrease from May 2024 when 117,905 were nabbed.

00:09:32.960 One of the most monumental policy changes made by Trump was the reversal of President Joe Biden's catch and release scheme,

00:09:38.680 which resulted in millions of illegal border jumpers being allowed into the U.S.

00:09:42.800 Close quote. So to restate in May of 2024, the Biden administration deliberately allowed 62,000 illegal aliens into the country.

00:09:52.720 That's 62,000 in a month, meaning they were on pace to allow more illegal aliens into this country in one year than the entire population of San Francisco.

00:10:01.820 And by contrast, this past May, the Trump administration did not deliberately allow a single detained illegal immigrant into this country.

00:10:10.160 They took the number from 62,000 in a month to zero, which, of course, is what the number should have been all along.

00:10:16.620 And there's no reason whatsoever to allow a criminal alien to enter the country deliberately,

00:10:20.900 because once you do that, you'll never see them again, at least not until they commit some heinous act of violence against an American citizen.

00:10:27.240 And, of course, the Biden administration knew that. That's why they did it.

00:10:31.040 And now that policy is over. And so we are seeing immediate results.

00:10:35.320 And it was as simple as enforcing the laws that are already on the books with the tools that are already available to do it.

00:10:43.760 This is obviously a major victory on par with what Bukele did in El Salvador.

00:10:49.240 But it's not a total victory, even though the numbers make it look like one.

00:10:54.220 And that's because, as we've discussed previously, illegal immigration isn't the only immigration problem we have.

00:10:59.840 And we still have the problem of all the illegal immigrants who are currently in the country.

00:11:03.520 We still need to round up and get rid of.

00:11:09.000 But like other countries, including Canada, we've given legal status to a large number of foreign nationals who despise this country,

00:11:16.020 which means even legal immigration is a problem that also needs to be fixed.

00:11:21.360 In fact, legal immigration needs to be shut down entirely, at least for now.

00:11:25.220 More than pretty much anyone else, Ilhan Omar is a walking justification for a policy like that.

00:11:31.280 And as if to prove my point, Omar recently announced that America,

00:11:34.560 the country that rescued her from a life of poverty and despair and ultimately death in Somalia,

00:11:40.740 is actually one of the worst countries on the planet.

00:11:42.920 This is a woman who, because of the generosity of the United States and its immigration policy,

00:11:47.520 is now a sitting member of Congress, living a life that's unimaginable to many Americans,

00:11:53.300 to say nothing of virtually everyone living in Somalia.

00:11:56.060 But here she is announcing that actually, America is just about as bad as where she came from, if not worse.

00:12:02.260 Watch.

00:12:02.580 I mean, I grew up in a dictatorship, and I don't even remember ever witnessing anything like that.

00:12:11.440 To have a democracy, a pecan of hope for the world to now be turned into one of the, you know,

00:12:21.300 one of the worst countries where the military are in our streets without any regard for people's constitutional rights,

00:12:30.680 while our president is spending millions of dollars prompting himself up like a failed dictator with a military parade.

00:12:39.600 It is really shocking, and it should be a wake-up call for all Americans to say,

00:12:46.220 this is not the country we were born in.

00:12:51.320 This is not the country we believe in.

00:12:52.800 This is not the country our founding fathers imagined.

00:12:56.820 And this is not the country that is supported by our constitution, our ideals, our values.

00:13:02.460 And we should all collectively be out in the streets rejecting what is taking place this week.

00:13:09.440 She's willing to say, as part of her sob story, that she lived under a brutal dictatorship in Somalia,

00:13:14.720 but she conveniently leaves out the fact that her father was a colonel in that dictator's army.

00:13:19.220 This is a regime that committed genocide and various human rights abuses as part of a communist Islamist agenda.

00:13:25.440 But Omar forgot to mention any of that, and it's an interesting omission, to say the least.

00:13:30.900 It's the kind of thing that might make you suspect that Ilhan Omar is an inherently dishonest person,

00:13:35.420 and her whole family and many other refugees like her should have never been granted legal status in this country in the first place.

00:13:42.540 And that's not the only deception that's evident in that interview.

00:13:45.280 Notice what she's doing here.

00:13:46.700 She says that this should be a wake-up call for all Americans to feel a variety of patriotic sentiments

00:13:52.040 about the country we were born in and the founding fathers.

00:13:55.980 She's trying to use American values and American history against Americans,

00:13:59.580 but she doesn't actually share any of those values.

00:14:02.340 She doesn't care about our history.

00:14:04.460 Pretty much every time this woman opens her mouth, she's attacking America, praising Somalia,

00:14:08.600 and vowing to work on behalf of Somali interests from within the United States to undermine the United States.

00:14:13.740 We've played the clips many times before, and there hasn't been a single moment in her political career where she's expressed an ounce of pride in this country,

00:14:22.240 where she's said anything positive about it.

00:14:24.600 And she's certainly never praised the founding fathers before, who she regards as white supremacists,

00:14:30.080 whose statues should be torn down and whose memories should be erased from history forever.

00:14:33.500 But now, suddenly, she's pretending to invoke the founding fathers to appeal to her constituents.

00:14:39.080 And again, she's been given legal status to come to this country and say all this.

00:14:43.440 She's now a naturalized citizen, and through it all, she keeps talking about Somalia.

00:14:47.760 In fact, she seems to want to go back there.

00:14:50.700 This is a rough translation that's making the rounds from a trip that Omar reportedly took to Somalia back in 2022.

00:14:56.760 We'll play just a small bit of it because it's not in English, but here it is. Watch.

00:15:09.640 According to the translation in the subtitle, she says, quote,

00:15:19.700 Now, you can dispute whether Ilhan Omar obtained her citizenship lawfully

00:15:32.680 and whether she's subject to deportation on those grounds, but it doesn't really matter.

00:15:39.720 Very obviously, based on what she's saying publicly, it's clear that Ilhan Omar

00:15:42.980 should not have been allowed into this country for any reason, illegally or legally.

00:15:47.460 She certainly should not have been made a citizen.

00:15:51.140 She doesn't offer anything to this country. She never has.

00:15:54.580 She hates this country. She always has.

00:15:57.360 She's a shining example for why legal immigration needs to be drastically curtailed

00:16:02.280 now that the border is relatively secure.

00:16:05.320 Washington Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal is yet another example.

00:16:08.260 She came to this country from India as a teenager,

00:16:10.680 and by her own admission, at no point did she have any interest in improving America for Americans.

00:16:16.020 Instead, she immediately got to work opening the floodgates for the rest of the third world to come here.

00:16:21.180 And here's what she just wrote on social media, quote,

00:16:24.440 I came to this country when I was 16.

00:16:26.160 I worked in immigration justice for 20 years before setting foot in Congress.

00:16:29.580 I've spent my entire life defending immigrants, and I'm not backing down.

00:16:33.380 In other words, by allowing Pramila Jayapal to become a citizen,

00:16:38.060 we didn't get someone who was committed to a life of hard work that would improve the lives of American citizens in any way.

00:16:45.480 She didn't have any interest in contributing to her local community or performing services for American citizens.

00:16:50.760 Instead, she began working immediately on behalf of foreign nationals.

00:16:54.720 This is a self-perpetuating problem.

00:16:57.880 It's a death spiral.

00:16:59.560 The more immigrants we allow into this country, even legal ones,

00:17:02.620 the more immigrants we get.

00:17:04.360 And by and large, these people are not vetted.

00:17:07.120 They openly despise many of them, this country, from the second they arrive.

00:17:12.280 We are allowing people in this country who hate it.

00:17:16.100 And after they've used our resources for their benefit, their hatred doesn't change.

00:17:24.360 Instead, they work even harder to allow more of their countrymen into the United States so that they, too, can reap the rewards.

00:17:31.560 This system simply cannot last forever.

00:17:33.660 It's not simply immoral.

00:17:35.820 It's unsustainable.

00:17:37.960 It only works as long as there are rewards to dish out.

00:17:41.020 And once that happens, and this moment is rapidly approaching, the social safety net collapses for everybody, along with our economy.

00:17:50.680 The only way to prevent that outcome is for the Trump administration to follow up on its success with illegal aliens,

00:17:57.480 which is a battle that we're still very much in the middle of,

00:18:02.820 but to follow up on that by sharply reducing the number of lawful migrants into this country, too.

00:18:09.140 Democrats will claim that it's heartless to turn our backs on refugees and so on,

00:18:14.980 but all you really need to do is listen to some of these refugees, quote-unquote refugees,

00:18:20.740 and lawful immigrants speak for just a few minutes, and you'll see why it's necessary.

00:18:26.980 I mean, they don't typically sound like South African refugees.

00:18:30.100 Just a few of them were allowed into this country.

00:18:32.720 Very grateful to be here, obviously, waving American flags and all that.

00:18:36.700 Instead, they often sound like Ilhan Omar and Pramila Jayapal.

00:18:41.140 They tell us how awful the U.S. is, how desperately they want to return to a place like Somalia.

00:18:47.500 And at this point, as decisively as Donald Trump closed the southern border,

00:18:51.320 we have no choice but to give these loathsome anti-American foreign operatives exactly what they're asking for.

00:18:59.860 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:19:01.020 Here's a fun fact that you'll ruin your next grocery run.

00:19:10.780 Unfortunately, over 85% of the grass-fed beef that you're paying premium prices for, well, it's imported.

00:19:18.160 Congratulations, you've been funding foreign cattle operations while thinking you're supporting American farmers.

00:19:23.060 Just great.

00:19:23.760 But here's the thing.

00:19:24.800 GoodRanchers.com actually gives you what you think you're already buying.

00:19:27.940 Shocking concept, right?

00:19:29.500 100% American source meat.

00:19:32.180 Born here, raised here, harvested here.

00:19:34.180 Not shipped from who knows where with mystery ingredients and questionable safety standards.

00:19:40.360 No added hormones.

00:19:41.340 No seed oils.

00:19:42.280 Just meat.

00:19:43.720 Revolutionary concept, I know.

00:19:45.220 And they deliver it straight to your door for added convenience as well.

00:19:48.920 I enjoy ordering steaks for the family and getting to grill them up on busy weekends.

00:19:52.920 It saves me time.

00:19:54.220 Kids love them.

00:20:23.460 Okay, I want to start with the very big news today.

00:20:27.420 And I just saw this.

00:20:28.680 This just happened before we started recording.

00:20:30.640 So I plan to do a big monologue on it tomorrow.

00:20:32.840 We'll break it down.

00:20:33.780 We'll get into a lot of detail about it.

00:20:35.120 But I want to at least mention this momentous story before tomorrow, which is that the Supreme

00:20:40.640 Court has ruled in favor of our law in Tennessee banning child mutilation across the state.

00:20:47.680 Here's the Daily Wires report.

00:20:49.080 The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a Tennessee law prohibiting transgender drugs and surgeries

00:20:53.000 for children, a major win for conservative activists and parent groups.

00:20:56.300 The court ruled 6-3 in United States v. Scrimetti that Tennessee's law does not violate the 14th

00:21:03.480 Amendment's Equal Protection Clause.

00:21:04.920 Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Scrimetti defended the law before the high court in December,

00:21:09.020 saying it was a matter of protecting kids from the consequences of decisions that they

00:21:12.660 cannot fully understand.

00:21:15.320 Chief Justice John Roberts penned the court's opinion and said the plaintiffs contort the meaning

00:21:19.060 of the term medical treatment.

00:21:20.820 Roberts, quote, notably absent from their framing, is a key aspect of any medical treatment.

00:21:25.800 The underlying medical concern the treatment is intended to address.

00:21:30.140 Roberts rejected the plaintiff's argument that Tennessee's law discriminates on the basis

00:21:33.500 of sex.

00:21:34.300 He wrote, quote, the law does not prohibit conduct for one sex that it permits for the

00:21:38.680 other under SB1.

00:21:40.000 No minor may be administered puberty blockers or hormones to treat gender dysphoria, gender

00:21:44.320 identity disorder, or gender incongruence.

00:21:46.540 Minors of any sex may be administered puberty blockers or hormones for other purposes.

00:21:50.520 That being, like, actual, legitimate medical purposes.

00:21:56.960 So that's the decision.

00:21:58.680 I mean, as I said, a lot more to be said about it and to break down, which we'll do tomorrow.

00:22:01.760 It's a huge win.

00:22:02.560 It's a historic win.

00:22:04.580 The word historic gets thrown around a lot, and I think incorrectly very often.

00:22:09.940 But it really applies here.

00:22:10.860 It applies because this is, I think, the final fatal blow to the gender transition industry.

00:22:18.400 Its last gap, its desperate final chance was to make this ridiculous argument that somehow

00:22:26.000 banning the procedure violates the Constitution, which is absurd because, of course, doing the

00:22:31.800 procedures, inflicting this on children violates their constitutional rights, violates their human

00:22:37.980 rights. And that wasn't, SCOTUS didn't go that far, but they went far enough.

00:22:44.560 They went as far as they needed to, finding that states do have the right to pass these kinds of

00:22:49.920 laws, regulating and banning these procedures.

00:22:52.960 Of course they do.

00:22:53.880 Of course they do.

00:22:56.200 And, you know, so you look at this, and I think back to three years ago with our investigation into

00:23:02.120 Vanderbilt's child mutilation practices, and we followed that up with our big rally in the state

00:23:08.020 capitol to end child mutilation.

00:23:10.740 And then our lawmakers followed that up with this law, banning this butchery, which finds its way to

00:23:16.380 the Supreme Court.

00:23:17.220 Many other states followed suit.

00:23:18.800 There were a couple of states that already had laws like these on the books, even before we did in

00:23:23.020 Tennessee.

00:23:23.320 And now the Supreme Court.

00:23:26.260 And it's funny because trans activists for the last few years have been so confident.

00:23:32.880 They've been so confident that the courts will bail them out.

00:23:36.620 Trans activists who rather infamously have trouble dealing with reality in many different ways.

00:23:43.560 And they also could not cope with the reality of this, of the fact that they're losing the argument

00:23:52.320 and state after state passing these laws.

00:23:56.240 And yet you'd still hear from trans activists saying, oh, the courts are going to, the courts will

00:24:00.220 save us, right?

00:24:02.060 Because they're the damsels in distress, or they wish they were damsels in distress.

00:24:07.700 And the courts are their knight in shining armor that it's always there to save them.

00:24:11.000 And because that's how it's been for left-wing activists for a long time.

00:24:14.920 The courts have always bailed them out.

00:24:16.420 So in some ways, you can't blame them for assuming that would happen here.

00:24:19.840 But it wasn't going to happen, and it didn't happen.

00:24:23.480 And so now all of these laws across the state are upheld.

00:24:28.940 And so what happens next?

00:24:30.520 That's my, that's, I think our thoughts immediately turn to that.

00:24:34.020 Yes, it's important.

00:24:35.160 It is actually important to celebrate a victory.

00:24:37.620 Not because it's, not because you're, you know, it's, it's not about gloating or bragging

00:24:43.600 or anything like that.

00:24:44.320 I mean, gloating, sure.

00:24:45.660 Yeah.

00:24:45.900 Gloat in the faces of trans activists, definitely gloat, taunt, point and laugh at them.

00:24:51.440 Absolutely do that.

00:24:53.020 That's not just what it's about.

00:24:54.320 I think acknowledging and being grateful for victories is, is, is important.

00:24:59.180 Uh, and also it's, it's, this is part of the fight.

00:25:04.940 Part of winning the fight is to point out when you've won a battle.

00:25:09.920 It's like, we want to send the message to the culture that we're, we're on the winning

00:25:14.500 side.

00:25:15.000 This is the winning side of this issue.

00:25:17.300 Okay.

00:25:17.800 So if you're still defending these, these quote unquote procedures, if you're still defending

00:25:22.260 this kind of abuse of children, you are not only morally repugnant, not only are you doing

00:25:28.400 it, uh, in contradiction of all the facts, but also you're on the losing side.

00:25:34.560 Uh, you're a loser.

00:25:36.240 So we're the winners over here.

00:25:37.700 We're winning.

00:25:38.160 And I think it's important to send that message.

00:25:39.320 But then after we're, we're done celebrating, uh, the next step is a federal ban as a nationwide

00:25:46.360 ban representative Marjorie Taylor green has a bill that she's written on this, which would

00:25:52.640 ban, uh, these procedures nationwide.

00:25:55.700 And that's what happened needs to happen.

00:25:57.340 That's the next step.

00:25:59.360 Um, and there's, there's no excuse.

00:26:02.960 We have a Republican controlled Congress.

00:26:05.260 We have a Republican in the white house.

00:26:07.120 We have a small window of time.

00:26:09.380 It's not going to last forever, but we have a small window.

00:26:13.980 It's now significantly less than two years, but you have a small window and you can pass

00:26:19.740 this bill.

00:26:20.940 And this is one of those times when it's a, it's a great, it's a, it's always great when

00:26:26.220 this happens, right?

00:26:27.260 When you've got, when, when the right thing to do, the morally right thing to do and the

00:26:32.660 politically popular, the politically smart thing to do are one in the same.

00:26:37.120 It doesn't always happen.

00:26:39.040 There's plenty of times when the right thing to do is not the politically popular thing,

00:26:41.940 but this is one of those relatively rare occasions when the right thing is also politically

00:26:46.040 popular.

00:26:46.820 And so there's just no excuse.

00:26:49.900 And I'll tell you this right now.

00:26:51.080 And I say, you know, I say this all the time.

00:26:52.540 It's a, it's a basic rule of politics.

00:26:54.340 You don't need to be a genius to figure this out.

00:26:56.560 If you needed to be a genius to figure it out, then I would not have.

00:26:59.020 Uh, but it's a, it's a rule of thumb, which is in any kind of political battle, think about

00:27:08.300 what your opponents, what your enemies don't want you to do.

00:27:12.320 And then do that.

00:27:15.540 You can, you'll rarely be, you'll, you will rarely go wrong.

00:27:19.840 If you follow that path, think about what they don't want you to do and then do that.

00:27:26.440 And, and I will tell you right now that the Democrats in Congress and Democrats all across

00:27:31.460 the country in elected office at any level, they do not want this fight.

00:27:37.980 They don't, you think Democrats in Congress want to have to get up and defend the chemical

00:27:45.900 castration of minors.

00:27:47.960 You want to think that you think they want to have to get up there and actually say, no,

00:27:51.440 yeah, you know what?

00:27:51.860 I think it's a good idea to chemically castrate a 12 year old boy.

00:27:55.460 I think it's a good idea to remove the breasts of a, for a, of a, of a 15 year old girl.

00:28:01.440 You think Democrats want it, want to say that they want that battle.

00:28:05.100 I tell you right now, they do not because they know it's insane.

00:28:10.940 They know that they've, that it's incredibly, it's an incredibly unpopular position.

00:28:15.520 They know you, they sound like lunatics when they say it, they know it's, it is indefensible.

00:28:19.980 They know all that.

00:28:20.900 They know it.

00:28:21.360 And so what they're hoping is that Republicans are dumb enough to just take this SCOTUS victory

00:28:27.300 as the last word on the subject and, uh, and move on.

00:28:32.200 That's what they're hoping.

00:28:34.320 They don't want this battle.

00:28:35.680 They don't want it.

00:28:37.100 And so we got to give it to them.

00:28:38.880 That's gotta be the next step.

00:28:39.980 All right.

00:28:42.380 As the situation overseas develops, the, uh, war hawks and neocons are salivating.

00:28:49.180 Lindsey Graham can barely contain himself.

00:28:52.180 The thought of going to war makes him giddy.

00:28:55.260 There are two things that excite Lindsey Graham.

00:28:57.620 Okay.

00:28:58.260 One is going to war and the other is, um, not women.

00:29:03.720 Allegedly.

00:29:04.200 Anyway, but he's been all over Fox news trying to push us into war.

00:29:09.060 And, and he's also making arguments that, you know, I, I hear, I'm, I'm hearing a lot

00:29:14.180 as this argument goes on, especially on X and all the factions, you've got the different

00:29:18.840 factions on the right about this issue and about the, about what we should do about Iran.

00:29:24.800 Should we get involved?

00:29:25.520 And what I'm hearing from the, from some on the interventionist side, what I'm hearing

00:29:32.360 is that, oh, this is not a, we, no one is calling for a regime change war.

00:29:37.720 No one is calling for that.

00:29:39.300 No one, no one is saying, no one is saying that we should go to war, put boots on the

00:29:44.240 ground in Iran to, to, to, uh, you know, to liberate them and give them a new regime.

00:29:50.040 No one, no one is calling for that.

00:29:51.580 This is what I'm hearing from some of the interventionists, but then you listen to Lindsey

00:29:54.060 Graham and well, no, that's exactly what he's calling for.

00:29:57.080 That is, and he's not nobody.

00:29:59.040 Okay.

00:29:59.340 This is a, unfortunately, highly influential, uh, national politician and he is calling for

00:30:07.300 it for sure.

00:30:08.680 Let's listen.

00:30:09.760 Can president Trump in any form, I mean, can you make the commitment that this would not

00:30:14.160 lead to a longer war?

00:30:16.280 I can guarantee you that if the Ayatollah gets a nuclear weapon, he will use it.

00:30:20.680 I believe that with all my heart and soul.

00:30:22.360 So the men and women who serve, they're the ones going, not people answering a poll.

00:30:27.680 And if you ask them, would you be willing to risk your life to stop the Ayatollah from

00:30:31.880 having a nuclear weapon?

00:30:33.140 All of them would say yes, because it makes their country, our country safer.

00:30:37.280 So we live in a world where you've got to confront problems.

00:30:40.600 You want to avoid World War III?

00:30:42.540 Learn the lessons from World War II.

00:30:44.640 People in World War II appeased Hitler to the point that it got so much out of hand.

00:30:50.360 We had a world war and 60 million people got killed.

00:30:53.600 So we live in a world where you pay now or you pay later.

00:30:56.520 Let's stop this threat before he gets a nuclear weapon.

00:30:59.520 Let's end this reign of terror.

00:31:01.260 Let's do it now.

00:31:02.240 It's not going to take 20 months.

00:31:03.760 But I can't guarantee you your freedom and your safety unless we're willing to fight for it.

00:31:08.960 I can guarantee you this.

00:31:10.260 If we don't fight for our freedom, we will lose it.

00:31:12.580 I would like to see this regime fall.

00:31:14.800 But I'm going to leave it up to the president as to what to do and when to do it.

00:31:18.280 But I do know this.

00:31:19.720 If we don't take out their nuclear program now, we'll all regret it.

00:31:23.340 We're very close.

00:31:24.800 Be all in, Mr. President, in helping Israel finish the job.

00:31:28.300 And let's see where we're at after we neutralize our nuclear program.

00:31:33.020 So that is Lindsey Graham doing the thing that people on X keep telling me no one is doing,

00:31:37.060 which is calling explicitly for a regime change war in the Middle East.

00:31:41.680 He wants to send in U.S. troops on the ground to topple the Iranian regime.

00:31:45.920 That's what he's got.

00:31:46.280 He wants to do it for freedom.

00:31:47.240 He uses the word freedom.

00:31:48.040 Well, freedom.

00:31:48.920 You've got to fight for freedom.

00:31:51.620 No, we don't.

00:31:53.020 Not for their freedom.

00:31:54.420 What do you mean?

00:31:55.380 I don't have to fight for Iranians.

00:31:58.340 No, we don't have to fight for that.

00:32:00.480 And our freedom has got nothing to do with this.

00:32:03.160 Okay, Americans, the freedom of Americans is not at stake in this.

00:32:07.540 It's just not.

00:32:08.300 Okay, let's at least be honest.

00:32:12.300 And Lindsey Graham is not capable of being honest.

00:32:14.400 He's a bad person.

00:32:15.500 Like, he's a bad, he's an evil person.

00:32:17.060 He truly is.

00:32:17.700 A lot of our politicians are incompetent clowns, not necessarily malevolent.

00:32:22.020 Lindsey Graham is malevolent.

00:32:23.180 He's a sinister person.

00:32:24.160 He's never seen a war he doesn't like.

00:32:25.940 He's been in office for 30 years.

00:32:27.520 He hasn't done anything to improve the lives of American citizens, his own constituents.

00:32:31.320 All he does is push for wars overseas.

00:32:33.380 It's the only thing he cares about.

00:32:34.800 He's like a cartoon villain.

00:32:36.280 He's a comically evil person.

00:32:37.640 And I truly despise him.

00:32:39.540 But as for the actual proposal, it's lunacy.

00:32:43.560 And I say again, as I've said several times now, I have, you know, and this should not need

00:32:49.020 to be said.

00:32:49.460 But obviously, I have no affinity for the Iranian regime.

00:32:56.360 I'm fine with them all being incinerated.

00:32:58.680 These are evil people.

00:32:59.980 Many of them are currently burning in hell, no doubt, where they belong.

00:33:03.380 Fine.

00:33:03.680 And I also acknowledge, as has been pointed out ad nauseum, that Trump has always been

00:33:09.820 consistent about Iran not getting nukes.

00:33:12.060 He has always said that.

00:33:13.120 That's true.

00:33:14.000 There's no denying that.

00:33:14.900 I mean, he's on the record.

00:33:15.660 He's been saying it for 10 years.

00:33:16.660 Sure.

00:33:16.860 He's been saying it for more than 10 years.

00:33:18.780 Yeah.

00:33:19.940 But he has also always said that the U.S. can't be going overseas to get involved in regime

00:33:28.340 change wars and act as the world's policeman.

00:33:31.360 He's also said that.

00:33:33.680 Which is why the United States should not be getting involved in a war against Iran

00:33:37.820 and certainly should not be engaged in a regime change.

00:33:43.240 Now, it hasn't happened yet.

00:33:46.540 But we should speak up now to make it clear that we don't want it to happen.

00:33:52.260 Because that's the other thing I keep hearing when I'm saying I don't want a regime change

00:33:55.060 war in the Middle East.

00:33:56.100 I hear from people saying, well, what are you talking about?

00:33:58.320 Trump's not doing that.

00:34:01.260 Yeah, he's not doing it yet.

00:34:02.380 I'm saying I don't I I I I've been alive for the last 40 years, almost 40 years, 39 now.

00:34:12.580 And so I've seen this movie many times.

00:34:15.740 I know how this stuff goes.

00:34:17.980 And in anyone who's been alive for the last 30 or 40 years or even the last 20 years, we know how this often goes.

00:34:25.520 And we also can hear people like warmongers like Lindsey Graham explicitly calling for a regime change war,

00:34:32.720 which is why it behooves us to speak up and say, we don't want don't do that.

00:34:36.780 We don't want that.

00:34:39.040 Israel can do what it wants.

00:34:40.360 Israel is its own country.

00:34:41.420 But the United States is not Israel and we're under no obligation to go marching off in the Middle East again to try to create a new government for another group of people.

00:34:50.980 We're under no obligation to do that.

00:34:55.340 For Iran's sake, for Israel's sake, for anyone's sake, we have our own interests, which is what we should be focused on.

00:35:01.160 Regime change doesn't work flat out.

00:35:02.600 It does not work.

00:35:03.200 Now, self-imposed regime change, sure.

00:35:06.460 Regime change from within.

00:35:07.740 I mean, that can be quite messy, too, but that can work.

00:35:10.800 Yeah.

00:35:11.280 A regime change where it's the people of a nation rising up to take back control of their country from a tyrant.

00:35:18.280 That's great.

00:35:19.340 That can that happens.

00:35:20.840 It can happen.

00:35:21.440 It can work.

00:35:22.980 I'm all for that from a distance from a distance.

00:35:26.760 I'm all for it.

00:35:27.660 If the people of Iran were rising up against their to topple their the tyrannical regime that oppresses them, I would look off at it and say, hey, good.

00:35:38.600 Good job, guys.

00:35:39.860 Thumbs up.

00:35:40.960 Yeah, I don't think a single I would not be in favor of a single penny of American dollars going for it.

00:35:47.140 I wouldn't want an American soldier to suffer so much as a paper cut on behalf of the freedom of foreign people.

00:35:55.020 But I still think it's good.

00:35:56.960 I think it would be a good thing.

00:36:00.280 But a regime change imposed from outside regime changes by foreign powers imposed on a country, ostensibly on behalf of the people of that country.

00:36:15.720 That doesn't work.

00:36:17.600 It has never worked.

00:36:19.880 Never.

00:36:20.640 It is always a disaster for decades and decades and decades.

00:36:25.200 We have reaped the bitter rewards of this kind of thing.

00:36:28.700 And it needs to stop.

00:36:30.780 I'm asking, what does it get us?

00:36:32.680 What does it do for us?

00:36:33.700 Think of an American family in Ohio somewhere.

00:36:41.020 How do they benefit from a regime change war in Iran?

00:36:44.840 The answer is they don't.

00:36:47.180 Not at all.

00:36:48.380 Not even a little bit.

00:36:49.360 What it gets you is chaos, instability, warring factions.

00:36:52.900 And oh, by the way, a whole new flood of refugees swarming into Europe and the United States.

00:36:56.860 That's what happens.

00:36:58.100 That's what happens every single time.

00:36:59.780 And I think at a certain point, when we see a pattern and a thing works out a certain way every single time for 40 years,

00:37:06.580 I think at a certain point we could start drawing some conclusions and we could start saying,

00:37:10.240 we should stop doing this.

00:37:11.180 This doesn't work.

00:37:12.400 This is just a thing we should not ever do.

00:37:14.580 Ever.

00:37:18.600 And that's my position on that.

00:37:22.520 All right.

00:37:23.840 So let's see.

00:37:24.880 One other thing.

00:37:27.740 Okay.

00:37:28.040 Well, so the New York Times has this article.

00:37:30.240 Senate Republicans are resurrecting a plan to sell millions of acres of federal land as part of President Trump's giant tax and spending bill,

00:37:38.220 setting up a fight within the party.

00:37:40.640 The proposal will require the Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Forest Service to identify and sell between 2.2 million and 3.3 million acres of public land

00:37:47.520 across 11 Western states to build housing.

00:37:52.320 Past efforts to auction off public land have enraged conservationists and have also proved contentious with some Republicans.

00:37:58.460 A smaller proposal to sell around 500,000 acres of federal land in Utah, Nevada, was stripped from the House version of the tax bill.

00:38:06.820 And so that's the plan to do this for housing.

00:38:10.180 The draft legislation requires that the public lands be sold for the development of housing or to address associated community needs.

00:38:18.800 Now, this is where my environmentalist side comes out, which really shouldn't surprise anyone.

00:38:25.380 The biggest environmentalists in the country are always going to be conservatives who like to hunt or fish.

00:38:32.760 We are the real environmentalists.

00:38:35.020 We just don't call ourselves that because the label has a ton of baggage.

00:38:38.820 The label really means, in practice, communist.

00:38:43.400 Like, every time it's used, we're talking about a communist.

00:38:46.480 We aren't communist, and we also don't believe in carbon taxes or any of that nonsense, and we're not worried about global warming.

00:38:54.200 We don't have any climate change superstitions.

00:38:57.280 So we are environmentalists in the Teddy Roosevelt tradition.

00:39:00.620 Back then, they didn't use the term environmentalist.

00:39:04.180 They said naturalist, right?

00:39:06.760 And I think we need to bring that term back.

00:39:10.020 That's what we need to start saying.

00:39:11.760 I'm a naturalist, not an environmentalist.

00:39:16.300 Conservationist is also a word that's used sometimes.

00:39:18.700 That also is a bit loaded now.

00:39:20.400 It has some baggage, but better than environmentalists.

00:39:23.020 And conservationists, I'm a conservationist, too.

00:39:24.880 I believe in conservation of the natural world.

00:39:26.600 Absolutely.

00:39:29.000 And as a naturalist, as a conservationist, I really hate the idea of selling off millions of acres of pristine wilderness.

00:39:36.180 I really hate it, and I'm opposed to it.

00:39:40.440 Preserving nature, preserving our land, preserving land to hunt and fish and just to exist, just to have it, even if you're not using it for anything, that really matters, and it's not a small thing.

00:39:55.300 And the idea of leveling so much of that land to build housing is grotesque to me.

00:40:00.040 I really hate the idea.

00:40:01.740 And I'm not convinced that it's necessary at all.

00:40:03.520 I mean, if it was actually necessary, if we really needed to, if we actually needed to, then, yes, I would say begrudgingly that, well, you have to.

00:40:13.420 I mean, homes for people must take precedence over nature.

00:40:19.140 People are more important than trees.

00:40:20.760 Although the trees, it's a little bit of a false dichotomy, because the trees and nature and wilderness, they bring joy to people.

00:40:35.300 It's beauty.

00:40:36.200 It's one of the things that makes life worth living.

00:40:38.400 And so it's because human beings have such great value that also nature and trees and wilderness has value.

00:40:45.760 But anyway, if there really was a – if you had to, if it was actually necessary, then my view on it would change.

00:40:54.580 But I'm not convinced that it's necessary.

00:40:57.480 I mean, there are like 15 million vacant homes in America right now.

00:41:00.780 Now, granted, not all of them are available for sale or rent, but 30-plus percent of them are available for rent right now.

00:41:08.080 And about a million homes, I think, are currently listed on the market for sale.

00:41:11.900 And you might say those numbers, especially the for sale numbers, are low.

00:41:15.360 Fine.

00:41:17.440 But is the only solution to sell off millions of acres of wilderness to build housing?

00:41:22.340 I'm not convinced by that.

00:41:23.540 I don't buy that at all.

00:41:26.100 And what kind of housing are we talking about?

00:41:27.420 Are we talking about – because if we're talking about selling off our public land to build mansions and estates for the wealthy, I have a huge problem with that.

00:41:36.180 But if we're also talking about selling off land to turn them into low-income housing units, I have a huge problem with that too.

00:41:43.480 Now, there's room in between those extremes, I suppose.

00:41:46.120 But my worry is that it would end up being one or the other.

00:41:48.420 And whatever it is, whatever kind of housing it is, I don't think we need to sell off our land to do it.

00:41:52.480 But if we have an issue of needing more housing, I mean, let's look at things like zoning laws that make it difficult to build new units in already occupied areas.

00:42:01.640 Let's look at all the vacant housing in cities across the country.

00:42:04.800 Let's look at – because you might say, well, yeah, there's vacant housing in this city.

00:42:10.620 There's places to live, but nobody wants to live in those places because they are crime-ridden cesspools.

00:42:15.560 Okay, fine, that's fair.

00:42:18.040 So let's look at that.

00:42:19.020 Let's solve that problem.

00:42:21.000 Okay, if our cities, if our actual population centers are becoming unlivable, and so now the solution is let's start tearing down the forests to build more housing.

00:42:31.300 How about the – we're just going to have the same problem again.

00:42:34.200 It's going to repeat itself unless we talk about it in the opening.

00:42:36.780 Enforce the laws.

00:42:39.080 These cities do not need to be unlivable cesspools.

00:42:42.760 They really don't.

00:42:43.440 So you could turn it around like that.

00:42:45.880 You really could just by enforcing laws that are already on the books.

00:42:49.660 That's all it takes.

00:42:51.940 And so let's talk about doing that.

00:42:55.760 Let's look at places that have abandoned shopping malls and office complexes that could become housing.

00:43:01.460 You know, there are other solutions, and I don't think we need to do this, and we shouldn't.

00:43:06.220 And I think that this is the kind of thing that conservatives should be against.

00:43:16.980 Now, we're also practical as conservatives, so again, if it was actually necessary, then yeah, you've got to make the practical decision sometimes.

00:43:23.880 And it might be unpleasant, but sometimes you've got to make a practical decision.

00:43:29.820 I don't believe that it is necessary, and if it isn't, then I think the conservative view on this is – well, it's right there in the title – conserve.

00:43:36.180 And I think, yes, I think that also applies to conservation of the natural world.

00:43:41.340 There are plenty of things that are done in the name of conservation that are insane, okay, telling us that we can't drill for – you know, it's like telling us that we can't exploit our own natural resources because it might disturb the caribou or some, you know, some species of tortoise or something.

00:44:02.800 That's crazy.

00:44:03.480 There are plenty of things done in the name of conservation that are crazy, but conservation itself, in theory, in principle, rather, is a good thing, and we should do it, and I think we should do it here as well.

00:44:18.540 All right, let's get to the comment section.

00:44:20.180 If you're a man, it's required that you grow up in hay with a sweet baby gang.

00:44:28.300 Carl says it's especially weird seeing people get nostalgic for brand names, not just the original stuff from their youth.

00:44:36.140 The Star Wars of today is not the same as what it used to be, only the name is the same.

00:44:41.300 Moving on is an option, though.

00:44:42.400 My favorite author, John C. Wright, was disappointed by Disney Star Wars and decided he can do better.

00:44:46.820 In my opinion, his current series is doing that handily and a bit deeper than the originals to boot.

00:44:50.960 Yeah, that's the saddest thing about millennial nostalgia, as we talked about yesterday, because the nostalgia is almost entirely for brands and corporate products.

00:44:59.800 They're nostalgic for full house, you know, for Nickelodeon.

00:45:06.080 And that's why I say the nostalgia is now a product.

00:45:09.400 Even our nostalgia is commercialized, which is sad.

00:45:13.280 I can't speak for everyone, but those of us raised by poor baby boomers lived outside with very little in the way of toys and seeing the world.

00:45:21.160 We're making up for the things we missed out on with what only rich kids could afford.

00:45:26.160 Yeah, well, like we we couldn't afford Disney World when I was a kid.

00:45:29.500 We couldn't afford the latest toys and the latest video games and all that kind of stuff.

00:45:33.240 But the idea.

00:45:35.220 And I hear this excuse for Disney adults a lot, too, that they well, they're just they weren't able to do this when they were kids.

00:45:41.000 OK, I mean, so the idea that what are you going to go back like Billy Madison and live your childhood in your 30s just because your parents didn't take it at Disney World?

00:45:55.060 That's deranged to me.

00:45:56.940 And it's also a weird thing to lament.

00:46:00.000 OK, if you had a childhood where your parents didn't buy you fancy toys and didn't take it at Disney World, you should be thanking them for that.

00:46:07.020 That means you had a real childhood.

00:46:08.460 What did you do instead?

00:46:09.580 Were you outside playing in the woods, running around?

00:46:13.880 That's what you're supposed to do as a kid.

00:46:15.720 That's a good thing.

00:46:17.200 It's so weird that anybody would look back and lament the fact that their childhood was not spent with.

00:46:26.140 They didn't spend more of their childhood like playing with fancy toys and going to tourist attractions.

00:46:30.620 It's just it's a weird thing to feel like you missed out on.

00:46:34.340 Matt, if your kids are into Pokemon cards, good luck fighting grown neckbeards in their 30s and 40s at the Pokemon machines scalping these cards.

00:46:42.640 They have no shame.

00:46:43.400 Yeah, my kids are not into Pokemon.

00:46:48.160 And this is one of the reasons why.

00:46:51.200 Now I'm going to get in trouble for this one, too.

00:46:52.800 Now it's going to get all these.

00:46:53.740 Now, here we go.

00:46:54.820 Here we go again.

00:46:55.740 Now, so now the Pokemon fans are coming after me.

00:46:58.220 Well, but I got to tell you, because like my kids are not into Pokemon and I have deliberately kept them away from it.

00:47:08.040 It's you know, it's not like if they brought a Pokemon card to the house.

00:47:11.420 It's not that I didn't call a priest in to do an exorcism.

00:47:14.360 Exactly.

00:47:14.860 But I just I as a parent, you could kind of guide them towards certain things and away from other things.

00:47:20.520 And that's what we do with Pokemon.

00:47:22.180 And this is why, because the the culture around Pokemon and so many of these other ostensibly kid brands, the culture is very adult.

00:47:31.620 It's an adult culture around these things.

00:47:34.260 And it creeps me out.

00:47:35.300 And you could you could argue that, well, you can't hold that against the thing like you can't hold it against the show or the whatever the brand.

00:47:42.320 It's it's not their fault that all these adults are into it.

00:47:44.940 Yeah, maybe.

00:47:45.620 But still, there's this adult culture around this stuff.

00:47:49.780 And it's bizarre.

00:47:52.180 And that's why I don't let my kids I don't let my kids mess with that stuff, because it's just it's weird.

00:47:56.820 Like, it's the same reason my daughter's never watched My Little Pony.

00:48:01.020 We never put that on in the house.

00:48:02.940 Now, honestly, the show seems pretty weird to me.

00:48:06.380 I don't know.

00:48:06.960 I've never watched the whole episode, I'll admit.

00:48:08.700 But like, it's just that's something as a parent, you just you you it's like you can't you can't sit down and specifically investigate every last little thing, every show.

00:48:19.780 Every and so you just you have a radar, right?

00:48:23.620 As a parent, you have a gut instinct about certain things.

00:48:27.100 And so with like My Little Pony, just gut instinct.

00:48:30.600 Now, that's weird.

00:48:31.320 That's weird.

00:48:31.920 We don't need that.

00:48:32.900 It's too weird.

00:48:34.280 You don't need we don't need My Little Pony.

00:48:36.560 Um, and especially because there's this really bizarre, really creepy adult obsession with something like My Little Pony adult men in some cases.

00:48:46.680 What the bronies?

00:48:47.420 I don't know if bronies are still a thing, but they were at least.

00:48:51.340 And so I just keep my kids away from it, you know, adults used to play with toys when they were little.

00:48:59.660 But now children just watch TV and have their tablets.

00:49:02.420 They don't play in the dirt.

00:49:03.580 They don't play with trucks or Legos.

00:49:05.020 Hardly.

00:49:05.460 Children are done with toys for the most part.

00:49:07.240 It's really strange.

00:49:09.060 Now, that's a choice, though.

00:49:10.200 If you raise your kids that way, that's a choice.

00:49:12.000 And I don't know if you're a parent or not, but when I hear parents lamenting this, when I hear parents complaining that, oh, you know, kids today, all they want to be is on their tablets.

00:49:21.360 Yeah, if you let them, if you let them have that kind of life, then they will choose it.

00:49:27.280 It's hardly even a choice at that age.

00:49:29.720 But if you make that an option, yeah.

00:49:32.280 But don't make it an option.

00:49:34.240 Don't make it an option for them to have a childhood dominated by a screen.

00:49:37.700 All the people getting emotional and getting dressed up at theme parks is ridiculous, but honestly, theme parks as an adult are pretty fun.

00:49:48.280 Roller coasters are the only place normal people can experience positive and negative G in one go.

00:49:52.920 It's a thrill, and the drinking scene at most of these places is pretty cool, too.

00:49:56.140 Won't be going to any Disney parks after everything they've done, though.

00:49:59.480 Yeah, look, I'm tough on theme parks, the lines, the heat, the way that everything costs five times more than it should.

00:50:05.300 That's what I hate about it.

00:50:06.240 But, yeah, I do like, I like roller coasters.

00:50:09.040 We took our kids to Dollywood last year, and we don't do a lot of theme parks, but every once on a rare occasion, we'll take them to one.

00:50:16.960 And I rode the roller coasters with my kids.

00:50:19.280 I waited in the line with them for four and a half hours for a 60-second ride.

00:50:23.120 But then once we got on the ride, yeah, it was fun.

00:50:25.720 If you can picture me on a theme park ride, I know it's probably, I know it's strange, but I enjoyed it.

00:50:30.660 Yeah, I like roller coasters.

00:50:31.720 I like, I mean, I'll play, you know, there's all kinds of, like, child games that I'll play with my kids.

00:50:38.780 I'll play tag with my kids and enjoy that, too.

00:50:42.240 They're getting a little too good at it now.

00:50:43.900 Like, I used to dominate in tag, but it's a little bit concerning.

00:50:48.820 Now, my kids will get toys that are fun to play with.

00:50:51.900 My son, for his birthday, just a few weeks ago, got an archery tag set, and that's exactly what it sounds like.

00:50:59.840 Archery tag, it's a bow and arrow, but the arrow has a, like, a soft Nerf-like tip, and so it's laser tag, but with arrows.

00:51:08.440 And I know you hear that, and you think, that sounds awesome.

00:51:10.560 That's amazing.

00:51:11.540 And it is.

00:51:12.800 And I played that with my sons.

00:51:14.600 It was fun.

00:51:15.520 It was as fun as it sounds.

00:51:17.140 So, yeah, adults can still have fun with all that stuff.

00:51:20.920 You know, you get your kids, get them a remote-control car for Christmas.

00:51:24.580 And, like, yeah, you get to play with a remote-control car, too.

00:51:27.080 That's a lot of fun.

00:51:28.320 Like, wintertime, take the kids out sledding.

00:51:30.700 That's a lot of fun.

00:51:33.320 You know, probably later today, I'll go out on the lake with the kids, and we'll play King of the Raft.

00:51:39.900 That's a lot.

00:51:40.760 And that game gets pretty, I almost blew out an ACL last year.

00:51:44.800 My son just threw a shoulder right into my kneecap to get me off the raft, although he didn't.

00:51:49.700 I still won that match.

00:51:51.060 And anyway, all that stuff is fun.

00:51:52.260 I like playing all that stuff, but my point with all of this is that it's, this is why you have kids.

00:52:00.060 That's not the only reason, but this is one of the perks, this is one of the benefits of having kids,

00:52:05.120 is that you can relive a lot of this stuff now as an adult, but you're reliving it as an adult.

00:52:09.560 You're taking part in these things with your kids, and so you're experiencing it from that vantage point.

00:52:17.940 It's a whole new vantage point, and it's just, it's a great joy.

00:52:21.500 It's a lot of fun.

00:52:22.200 It's a great joy.

00:52:23.500 But you gotta, you just, you have to have kids for that.

00:52:26.780 It would be weird.

00:52:27.680 It would be weird if I was hanging out with, like, five or six 40-year-old men,

00:52:31.920 and we went out and played freeze tag.

00:52:33.460 It would just be a, it would be a weird thing to do.

00:52:35.840 It's a weird way for adults on their own to spend their time.

00:52:39.980 If we decide we're gonna go play hide-and-seek, it's just, it's bizarre, isn't it?

00:52:44.320 But when you have kids, it's not, that's not, to play with your kids in that way is a good thing to do.

00:52:50.880 But I think the problem is that you have a lot of adults today who want to skip the having kids part,

00:52:55.900 but then still, there's like this circle of life that it's the way it's supposed to go,

00:53:01.040 where you're a child, and you become a young adult, and then you have kids,

00:53:03.840 and now you get to go back and experience a lot of those things you did as a kid again.

00:53:08.480 But like I said yesterday, it's because you're, it's, it's a rite of passage.

00:53:11.380 You're bringing your kids, you're introducing your kids to these things,

00:53:14.640 like your parents did with you, and you're experiencing it again from that vantage point.

00:53:18.600 Um, but you're also participating in it, and you're having fun yourself, and that's a great,

00:53:23.620 it's a great joy there.

00:53:24.760 But I think that there's a lot of adults now who want to experience the benefits of that kind of,

00:53:31.660 uh, that, of, of this, of this circle, this circle of life without, without actually having kids.

00:53:37.280 And, uh, that's, that's where the problems come in, uh, from, as far as I can see it.

00:53:46.180 Now, if your idea of gut health is eating a handful of Tums after every meal and hoping for the best,

00:53:51.340 it might be time to level up.

00:53:52.860 Enter Peaks Pu'erh tea.

00:53:55.620 Yes, it is fermented tea.

00:53:57.420 No, it doesn't taste like compost.

00:53:59.080 I was skeptical, too.

00:54:00.720 Uh, but here's the thing.

00:54:02.340 It actually works.

00:54:03.220 I recently tried their black Pu'erh, no jitters, no crash, just clean, calm energy

00:54:09.340 that doesn't make you feel like you're on a caffeine bender.

00:54:13.260 And after meals, their green Pu'erh helps you digest without feeling like you swallowed a brick.

00:54:18.560 Imagine that.

00:54:19.520 Pu'erh is fermented, which means it's packed with probiotics, prebiotics, and all the things your gut needs,

00:54:25.280 but your current lifestyle is probably ignoring.

00:54:27.380 Real clinical backing, real antioxidants.

00:54:29.740 This isn't some powdered gimmick from your local wellness cafe.

00:54:33.760 This is the stuff top doctors like Dr. Mark Hyman actually recommend.

00:54:38.100 Also worth noting, this is high-quality tea, wild harvested from 250-year-old trees,

00:54:43.140 zero pesticides, no additives, no steeping required.

00:54:46.880 It dissolves in water.

00:54:48.440 That's efficiency.

00:54:49.440 I like efficiency.

00:54:50.500 Now, here's the deal.

00:54:51.180 If you go to peaklife.com slash Walsh, you get 20% off for life.

00:54:55.740 Not one order for life.

00:55:02.140 Plus, they offer a 90-day money-back guarantee.

00:55:06.180 Again, that's peaklife.com slash Walsh.

00:55:09.420 Your gut will thank you.

00:55:10.600 Probably your brain, too.

00:55:12.600 Daily Wire isn't just ad-free shows or premium entertainment, though.

00:55:16.020 Yeah, we've got all that.

00:55:16.860 The Daily Wire is a place for people who are done being lied to, canceled, shouted down,

00:55:21.080 or told to sit quietly while our country is burned down.

00:55:24.200 We fight back with stories, with truth, with action, and when we fight, we win.

00:55:28.360 You're not just becoming a member.

00:55:29.460 You're joining a community that's building the future into something they can't burn down.

00:55:33.460 Join now at dailywireplus.com.

00:55:35.580 Now, let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:55:42.920 It's been a while since we've checked in on the theater kids occupying our government.

00:55:47.540 The last time was about six months ago when we discussed Ketanji Brown Jackson's decision

00:55:51.440 to star in a play on Broadway, she could barely sing.

00:55:54.540 She couldn't act.

00:55:55.420 The whole thing was an embarrassment, and it made it hard to ignore the fact that at the

00:55:58.960 highest levels, Democrats aren't really interested in governing.

00:56:01.380 Instead, they're interested in fulfilling their lifelong ambition to play a role on a grand stage.

00:56:06.680 They don't care how much they humiliate themselves.

00:56:08.960 They simply don't.

00:56:09.760 They don't want to be politicians.

00:56:10.800 They don't want to be political leaders.

00:56:11.940 They want to be Hollywood stars.

00:56:12.960 Based on real events, it brings me no joy to report that, at the moment, these failed

00:56:19.220 despians are now completely out of control.

00:56:22.320 Maybe it's the warmer weather.

00:56:23.800 Maybe it's the fact that Donald Trump's in office.

00:56:26.100 Maybe we've reached critical levels of mental illness in this country.

00:56:28.880 Most likely, it's all three.

00:56:29.900 Whatever the case, we have to talk about it because it reveals something about the Democrat

00:56:33.460 Party that they desperately don't want you to think about.

00:56:35.700 But we'll start with the story of the week, or of last week, anyway, which somehow we haven't

00:56:42.560 talked about at all until now, I think, at least not in any great detail.

00:56:47.240 So a guy named Alex Padilla, who's apparently a senator from California, interrupted the DHS

00:56:52.080 secretary while she was speaking at an FBI field office, started shouting questions at

00:56:56.480 her mid-speech, even though it wasn't time for questions yet.

00:56:59.320 And then when Secret Service agents intervened, he charged towards them.

00:57:01.900 And so, of course, they arrested him.

00:57:03.820 This is probably the best angle of what happened.

00:57:05.380 Watch.

00:57:06.540 I don't know why you insist on exaggerating every single person that has been able to

00:57:13.620 do this.

00:57:13.940 Hands up.

00:57:14.460 Hands up.

00:57:14.940 Also, I want to talk specifically to the Breyer and to the politicians of the United States.

00:57:20.100 Because the fact of the matter is, I have a dozen violent criminals that you're rotating

00:57:25.060 on the earth.

00:57:26.980 This isn't exactly the case of the century, especially because political associations by leftists

00:57:31.600 are now common.

00:57:32.320 And you can't allow some guy to start yelling and moving towards an important government

00:57:36.640 official.

00:57:37.560 It doesn't matter if he's a senator or a janitor.

00:57:40.080 No sane person does something like that.

00:57:42.340 It's an obvious threat.

00:57:43.740 In this case, Alex Padilla is lucky he wasn't shot.

00:57:46.200 And by the way, I cover politics for a living.

00:57:48.480 I never heard of Alex Padilla until this moment.

00:57:51.920 Frankly, he might not even be a senator, for all I know.

00:57:53.940 We're going to need to fact check this.

00:57:55.540 I'm not even sure if I'm pronouncing his name correctly.

00:57:57.760 Hopefully, I'm not.

00:57:59.440 In any event, this is such an obvious analysis that even CNN agrees with it.

00:58:03.740 Watch.

00:58:04.820 First, you have the DHS secretary who is addressing the press.

00:58:08.920 This was not a Q&A period.

00:58:10.720 And she's interrupted.

00:58:11.600 She's interrupted by someone who was speaking very loudly.

00:58:14.580 And so her security detail confronts what we obviously now know to be the senator.

00:58:19.580 And at that point, he is now going to be escorted out.

00:58:22.360 You can't interrupt something like that that's already in progress without having those consequences.

00:58:26.520 But the second incident, in my view, happens the moment as officers are trying to lead him out,

00:58:32.160 he then turns and walks back towards kind of into those agents.

00:58:36.540 At that point, from a security detail perspective, we're taking this person out against their will.

00:58:41.680 We've asked the person.

00:58:42.780 And again, this is all happening very quickly.

00:58:44.320 But the moment he then turns into them, they realize this is not someone who is going to comply.

00:58:49.920 Now, you might think that because Alex Padilla's stunt failed and even CNN concluded his behavior was indefensible,

00:58:56.200 that he would just slink away in shame and humiliation.

00:58:59.260 But that's not what happened.

00:59:00.180 Instead, several days after this incident, even though there's a potential war in the Middle East looming,

00:59:04.560 and literally everyone else has moved on to more important things,

00:59:07.840 Alex Padilla stood up and delivered a tearful monologue that he'd been rehearsing for hours in front of the bathroom mirror.

00:59:13.480 It's one of the most pathetic displays by a member of Congress imaginable.

00:59:16.380 And here it is.

00:59:17.040 You've seen the video.

00:59:20.680 I was pushed and pulled, struggled to maintain my balance.

00:59:31.460 I was forced to the ground.

00:59:36.460 First on my knees.

00:59:40.320 And then flat on my chest.

00:59:43.620 And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway, repeatedly asking,

00:59:56.180 why am I being detained?

01:00:00.040 Not once did they tell me why.

01:00:03.200 That may be the hardest clip to watch that we've ever played on a cancellation.

01:00:06.940 It's certainly up there, at least.

01:00:08.160 It's worse than serious car accidents, for sure.

01:00:10.680 The car that got hit by the train because the woman driver backed up into the tracks and then ran away,

01:00:15.920 as bad as it was, is nothing compared to this in terms of the incompetence and sheer cringe on display.

01:00:21.780 This is probably a good time to point out that Alex Padilla has never had a real job.

01:00:25.400 He's been in politics his entire life.

01:00:26.740 He doesn't accomplish anything, never has.

01:00:29.540 He's probably never interacted with a normal person.

01:00:31.560 And in that sense, this speech kind of makes sense.

01:00:34.120 If you're surrounded by a bunch of hopeless phonies,

01:00:36.040 then you might think a performance like that would convince normal people.

01:00:39.900 To give one example of the people Alex Padilla spends his time with,

01:00:42.640 here's Cory Booker reacting to this whole episode.

01:00:44.860 We played some of this before, but it's worth enduring.

01:00:47.920 Well, it's not really worth enduring, but we will anyway.

01:00:50.120 One more time.

01:00:51.000 Watch.

01:00:51.280 This man with equal dignity in this body today was driven violently to his knees as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive

01:01:12.780 because he was so-called disrespectful.

01:01:17.040 That should offend the consciousness, not just of the other 99 members of this body.

01:01:23.300 It should defend the conscience of this country.

01:01:27.860 Because if you can make Alex Padilla forcibly kneel before this executive, when does it stop?

01:01:37.460 He's a United States senator.

01:01:39.820 Watching that, you're wondering how they could possibly think this will convince anyone.

01:01:43.720 The acting is just so bad.

01:01:45.600 They have no facts to support anything they're saying.

01:01:48.720 And on top of that, these are the same people just a few months ago who told us that nobody is above the law.

01:01:53.860 That's how they justified arresting the leading presidential candidate for fake crimes.

01:01:57.840 And now when Alex Padilla is arrested for a crime he commits on camera, the defense is,

01:02:02.720 how dare you?

01:02:03.260 He's a senator, for God's sake.

01:02:06.100 Again, people who are actors, people who are only capable of reading from a script,

01:02:10.160 aren't fazed by this obvious inconsistency.

01:02:12.360 They don't think.

01:02:13.220 They just do what they're told.

01:02:14.120 This Alex Padilla stunt was scripted in every conceivable way.

01:02:18.380 After it happened, the talking point went out to every politician and media personality.

01:02:23.480 This is how they plan to sell it to the public.

01:02:26.200 Check it out.

01:02:27.300 And anyone that knows Alex Padilla knows one thing about Alex Padilla.

01:02:31.100 He's one of the most mild-mannered, decent people you'll meet.

01:02:34.780 I know Alex Padilla to be among the most mild-mannered of colleagues.

01:02:38.420 And Jamie is right. He is very mild-mannered. He's not the type of person who would necessarily do this.

01:02:43.380 People who may not be familiar with Senator Padilla, he is one of the most mild-mannered, nerdy, soft-spoken.

01:02:52.800 Who thinks of him as anything other than a reasoned, reasonable, mild-mannered senator.

01:02:59.760 That's a montage that was put together by Western lensmen, and it's important to show it because it's actually encouraging in a way.

01:03:07.180 It's more evidence that the propagandists in government and in the media are really, really bad at their jobs.

01:03:12.700 They're not capable of thinking on their feet.

01:03:15.420 If they were capable of independent thought, they'd realize how badly Padilla had bombed this stunt and they'd ditched the script.

01:03:21.000 But because they're essentially robots, all they can do is press on.

01:03:25.060 It's like watching a Roomba continue to vacuum, even as the whole house burned down around it.

01:03:29.320 It just doesn't know any better.

01:03:31.240 Neither does somebody named Brad Lander.

01:03:33.460 Like Alex Padilla, he's someone that no one's ever heard of until five seconds ago.

01:03:37.680 He may not even be a real person. Who knows?

01:03:40.460 According to various reports, he's some sort of official in the New York government.

01:03:43.660 He's apparently running for mayor and is not polling well at all.

01:03:46.700 So he needs attention.

01:03:47.640 And the other day, what do you know, he got attention by going to an immigration court,

01:03:51.500 locking arms with a suspected criminal alien that ICE was trying to detain and interfering with the arrest.

01:03:57.040 And again, it's all on film because Brad Lander needs an audience.

01:04:01.040 That's what the whole thing is for anyway.

01:04:03.380 And here it is.

01:04:04.520 Do you have a judicial warrant?

01:04:07.740 Do you have a judicial warrant?

01:04:11.220 Can I see the judicial warrant?

01:04:14.480 Can I see the warrant?

01:04:15.860 I will let go when you show me the judicial warrant.

01:04:18.820 Where is it?

01:04:20.400 Where is the warrant?

01:04:21.460 There's a hundred in my hand here.

01:04:22.760 You don't have authority.

01:04:23.680 You don't have authority.

01:04:25.260 You don't have authority to arrest U.S. citizens.

01:04:42.000 You don't have the authority to arrest U.S. citizens.

01:04:45.160 You don't have to.

01:04:48.320 I'm not obstructing.

01:04:49.160 I'm standing right here in the hallway.

01:04:50.540 I asked to see the judicial warrant.

01:04:53.240 Once again, it's an open and shut case.

01:04:55.320 He's clearly impeding federal authorities to get attention to his failed political career.

01:05:00.000 He should be charged with felonies and thrown in prison immediately, just like Alex Padilla.

01:05:04.080 No reasonable person can watch this footage and come to any other conclusion about it.

01:05:07.920 But again, just like with Alex Padilla, the Democrat machine is pretending that we don't have eyes and ears.

01:05:13.600 So here's Kathy Hochul, a woman who, when you watch her and listen to her, makes you wish you didn't have eyes and ears.

01:05:20.100 Here's what she had to say.

01:05:21.080 Do you want to know what I really think?

01:05:23.520 Please.

01:05:24.420 It's bull******.

01:05:26.860 How dare they take an elected official who's been going down there for weeks to escort people who are afraid to walk into a courthouse in the United States of America?

01:05:37.780 Because despite them having legal status and following the rules and making their appointments, that they don't know what's going to happen to them.

01:05:47.780 So Brad Lander has stepped up to be a guiding help for them.

01:05:52.460 And this is what happens to him.

01:05:54.840 What the hell is happening to this country?

01:05:57.240 Now, you know, it's often very tempting in this business to attack people for their personal appearance.

01:06:01.820 And very often it's gratuitous and unfair to do so.

01:06:05.400 And it's something I never do, except for all the times when I do.

01:06:09.840 But, you know, in this case, as you listen to Kathy Hochul deliver this extremely unconvincing performance and spout obvious lies as if we don't have videotape proving that she's wrong,

01:06:19.860 you really can't ignore the fact that Kathy Hochul is both physically and spiritually deformed.

01:06:25.680 She is a monster inside and out.

01:06:28.180 And like every other failed actor in the party, she's incapable of selling her fake indignation, in part because her face can't really move.

01:06:35.980 And to the extent that she was trying to sell a narrative, no one was even remotely convinced by it.

01:06:40.300 They were all too distracted by whatever that was that they just watched.

01:06:46.200 And that said, despite themselves, all of these performances by Democrats, as embarrassing as they are, do convey an important message.

01:06:53.040 It's not the message Democrats intend to send, but it's an important message nonetheless.

01:06:56.240 And that message is that despite the rhetoric of every Democrat politician in the country, we do not live in a fascist dictatorship.

01:07:03.760 The fact that these people would deliberately commit crimes on camera and get arrested is proof we're not living in a fascist dictatorship.

01:07:10.440 Instead, it demonstrates very clearly the Democrats know that they won't face any serious consequences when they violate the law in public.

01:07:19.400 I mean, try a stunt like that in North Korea.

01:07:22.100 See how that goes.

01:07:23.300 Within 24 hours, you'll become a target dummy for artillery practice.

01:07:26.360 Try a stunt like that in the United States, and you get a bunch of weepy MSNBC anchors telling everyone how mild-mannered you are.

01:07:34.400 Maybe that needs to change.

01:07:36.160 Maybe these people should suffer some real consequences.

01:07:38.320 Maybe not North Korean consequences.

01:07:39.700 But, you know, closer in that direction.

01:07:44.200 But in lieu of such punishments, as justified as they would be, we'll have to settle for mocking these politicians as ruthlessly as we possibly can.

01:07:51.960 And that is why Alex Padilla, Brad Lander, Cory Booker, and every other failed actor in the Democrat Party posing as a serious politician are all today canceled.

01:08:01.320 That'll do it for the show today.

01:08:02.720 Thanks for watching.

01:08:03.180 Thanks for listening.

01:08:03.740 Talk to you tomorrow.

01:08:04.640 Have a great day.

01:08:05.500 Godspeed.

01:08:09.700 Godspeed.
