The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1620 - New Yorkers Embrace The Destruction Of Their City By Voting For Socialist Muslim Mayor

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, a Muslim socialist from Uganda has just won the Democratic primary in New York City and will likely soon be the city's new mayor.

00:00:07.560 How could something like this happen? What does it say about the future of New York and of this country? We'll talk about it.

00:00:12.480 Also, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett declares that she should have been the one who decided whether we strike Iran.

00:00:17.660 And a different congresswoman with a similar IQ brings her baby to a congressional hearing.

00:00:21.740 Not the first time she's used her child as a prop. Plus, the five-year freeze on student loan repayments is coming to an end.

00:00:27.300 College graduates are going to have to pay back their debts and they're not happy about it.

00:00:31.540 All that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:02:31.520 Now, it's not every day that we begin the show with a groundbreaking piece of breaking news from the New York Times of all places,

00:02:38.760 but in this case, I have no choice.

00:02:40.700 You see, the paper of record recently hired a new climate change reporter who specializes in hard-hitting investigations with no compromises,

00:02:48.680 and yesterday, after just a few days on the job, actually, this young reporter, whose name is Maxine Joslau,

00:02:55.380 delivered what may be her magnum opus.

00:02:58.660 She has made a discovery that, without any doubt, has massive implications for the future of this country and, indeed, of civilization itself.

00:03:09.140 So, if you're not sitting down already, it's time to do so, because we're going to put Maxine's big discovery up on the screen.

00:03:17.340 And this is from her account on X, and I want you to just take it in,

00:03:21.240 because in future generations, they're going to be studying this post in science classes all over the world.

00:03:26.520 That's how significant this is, and here it is.

00:03:29.640 So, as you can see, Maxine wrote, quote,

00:03:33.260 just started as a climate change reporter at the New York Times, and this is what job security looks like.

00:03:38.200 And then below her message, Maxine posted a screenshot from the weather app on her iPhone,

00:03:42.880 revealing that, today, in her zip code, the weather will vary from 80 degrees to 99 degrees,

00:03:49.460 and then throughout the week, there will be a mixture of rain and sunshine, with temperatures hovering around 80 degrees.

00:03:54.820 So, yes, in late June, it's getting hot in the New York area.

00:04:00.620 Did you get that?

00:04:01.460 I mean, admittedly, if you're a rube, you might be confused by what Maxine is getting at.

00:04:06.280 The implications might befuddle or even terrify you, or you might be tempted to mock Maxine,

00:04:12.620 as though as they derided Socrates and Galileo.

00:04:15.960 But that would be ignorant and short-sighted, because you see, without even realizing it,

00:04:20.820 New York Times reporter Maxine Joslau has discovered something very fundamental about the nature of the planet.

00:04:29.060 And in particular, she has discovered all by herself the concept of summer.

00:04:34.000 That's spelled S-U-M-M-E-R, pronounced summer.

00:04:38.360 And during this period known as summer, temperatures tend to increase by a significant margin.

00:04:45.740 They become what is known as hot, spelled H-O-T.

00:04:50.320 In the eyes of Maxine and the New York Times, this is an earth-shattering revelation.

00:04:54.720 It's the kind of newfangled development that ensures that climate change reporters with English degrees from Brown

00:05:00.900 are, in fact, irreplaceable on the job market.

00:05:04.800 After all, until people started buying SUVs and using gas stoves, the temperature never changed in the summer.

00:05:10.100 Every day of the year, it was exactly the same temperature as the day before.

00:05:13.420 Weather conditions never changed at all.

00:05:15.880 Now it's different.

00:05:17.740 A check back in the winter, and who knows, we might even see the temperatures go down.

00:05:22.600 That'll guarantee a Pulitzer, perhaps a Nobel Prize for Maxine if it comes to pass.

00:05:28.880 It'll be total vindication for the climate change cult.

00:05:32.840 Now I'll admit that, you know, piling on to poor Maxine, it's not exactly sporting at this point.

00:05:38.560 Half the internet has already accomplished that task for me.

00:05:41.220 Within hours of posting a screenshot of high temperatures and suggesting that it's proof of climate change,

00:05:46.240 she locked down her account.

00:05:47.580 So it's safe to say that she's gotten the message, which is that nobody's really buying into the climate change scam anymore.

00:05:54.640 It's simply too lazy and too unintelligent for anyone to take seriously.

00:06:00.200 The weather changes.

00:06:01.620 It has always changed.

00:06:02.840 Blaming the climate on humans is convenient for the left because it gives them permission to regulate everything into the ground,

00:06:09.140 but it's a false premise, and now pretty much everybody understands that.

00:06:13.700 Bernie Sanders is one of the exceptions.

00:06:15.320 The other day, he went on Joe Rogan's show to talk about, among other things,

00:06:19.300 how climate change is supposedly a new existential threat to humanity.

00:06:24.800 But he wasn't prepared for Joe to pull up data, which was published by the Washington Post,

00:06:31.000 not exactly a right-wing website, that completely contradicts this whole narrative.

00:06:36.520 Watch.

00:06:37.700 First of all, the reality is that the Earth's temperature has never been static, right?

00:06:41.380 We can both agree on that.

00:06:42.400 It's always been up and down.

00:06:44.040 There's been ice ages and heat waves.

00:06:46.200 And then the Washington Post looked at it.

00:06:48.300 What was the time period that they looked at?

00:06:50.780 That essentially they found that we're in a cooling period, that the Earth over the past X amount of years,

00:06:58.380 and this was like a very inconvenient discovery, but they had to report the data, and kudos to them for doing that.

00:07:04.820 Scientists have captured the Earth's climate change over the last 485 million years.

00:07:08.940 Here's a surprising place we stand now.

00:07:11.300 So look at the far end of that graph, and you see we're in a cooling period.

00:07:17.360 Well, I'm not sure.

00:07:19.180 I didn't read that article.

00:07:20.480 But, you know, the scientists who are out there, I think—

00:07:23.900 I know, but there's a lot of money involved in that, too, Bernie.

00:07:26.040 That's part of the problem.

00:07:27.200 It's very high.

00:07:27.600 Look, this is—it's not an American issue.

00:07:29.660 It is a global issue.

00:07:31.620 And all I can tell you is that we are, in my view, going to see more extreme weather disturbances in the coming years than we have ever.

00:07:40.540 And we're seeing them right now.

00:07:42.920 This is one of the easiest ways to see if you're dealing with an honest person or a completely useless hack who brings nothing of value to the debate.

00:07:51.580 If somebody's honest and you confront them with data that contradicts their argument, then they'll pause to respond to the data in some way.

00:07:57.620 But that's not what Bernie Sanders does here.

00:07:59.580 Instead, he just brushes off the data, saying he hasn't seen the article from The Washington Post.

00:08:03.400 Then he starts repeating the talking points about how we're supposedly seeing more cases of extreme weather, which is both false and completely irrelevant to the point that Joe Rogan was making.

00:08:11.820 Not to mention the fact that extreme weather is a basically meaningless term.

00:08:16.980 I mean, what is extreme—what counts as extreme is very much relative to where you live, the season, the time of year, and so on.

00:08:25.500 And by the way, it wasn't The Washington Post that came up with this data.

00:08:28.140 It was a research paper in the journal Science, which The Post reported on.

00:08:31.740 And the researchers looked at 500 million years' worth of fossil evidence, and they came up with this chart of global average surface temperatures over time.

00:08:41.280 Now, of course, I'm not vouching for whatever fossil evidence and climate modeling produced this graph.

00:08:46.520 I have no idea whether it's accurate or not.

00:08:49.620 Admittedly, I'm extremely skeptical that they can figure out what the weather was like a million years ago by looking at fossils.

00:08:56.440 But these are the same experts that, in every other case, we're told we have to take seriously.

00:09:02.440 And this data shows very clearly that the world used to be much, much warmer than it is today.

00:09:07.720 Hundreds of millions of years ago, the world was warmer.

00:09:10.480 It's also a lot warmer when the dinosaurs went extinct.

00:09:13.660 Relatively speaking, according to the experts, quote-unquote, we're in a cooling-off period.

00:09:17.560 But Sanders and the environmentalist cult have no response to this.

00:09:21.400 All they could do is deflect and lie some more, which is exactly what Sanders did.

00:09:25.220 So it's hard to watch interviews like this, along with, you know, very ill-conceived posts by New York Times reporters,

00:09:31.060 without concluding that the climate change narrative, which was once a dominant orthodoxy on the left, is crashing and burning at the moment.

00:09:39.720 So was the LGBT agenda and Pride Month.

00:09:43.620 Five years ago, you couldn't get away from Pride Month propaganda.

00:09:46.840 Now you barely hear anything about it.

00:09:49.000 As we've discussed, various pride parades are going bankrupt.

00:09:52.000 Sponsors are pulling out one by one and so on.

00:09:54.700 And these are victories that, on the surface, might suggest, as some on the right have claimed,

00:10:01.100 that wokeness and the extreme excesses of left-wing ideology have been defeated, or at least neutralized.

00:10:10.560 But that is not the case.

00:10:13.080 The most destructive and anti-American impulses of the left have not been defeated.

00:10:17.820 They haven't suddenly realized the error of their ways.

00:10:21.640 Instead, like a malignant cancer, they have mutated.

00:10:25.840 They've identified different ways to undermine the foundations of this country.

00:10:29.880 And in the process, they've become much more dangerous and ultimately much more deadly.

00:10:35.460 Now, that's not to say that we haven't had any real victories against wokeness or leftism in recent years.

00:10:39.780 We have.

00:10:40.340 But the point is that the battle is very, very far from over.

00:10:44.700 You cut off one tentacle of this giant squid-like beast, and it grows another.

00:10:50.840 So the battle continues.

00:10:53.360 And getting to the real point here today,

00:10:55.600 that's the only way to understand what just took place yesterday in New York's mayoral primary.

00:11:02.820 Andrew Cuomo has conceded the race, which means that,

00:11:05.560 barring an upset in the general election from a candidate like Eric Adams,

00:11:09.020 a 33-year-old Muslim socialist from Uganda named Zoran Mamdani

00:11:14.080 is going to be the next mayor of New York City.

00:11:17.500 Yes, a foreign Nepo baby and failed rapper who wants to nationalize the grocery stores and rental properties 1.00

00:11:24.040 while also destroying the police department in the name of queer liberation 0.93

00:11:28.140 and forcing taxpayers to fund sex changes for children

00:11:31.480 is the man that New Yorkers apparently want to put in charge of the whole city.

00:11:36.560 Every aspect of his platform is un-American and demented and totally insane, 1.00

00:11:42.960 but it's worth spending a little time specifically on this brilliant idea of his

00:11:47.560 to create government-run grocery stores, which we touched on yesterday briefly.

00:11:52.260 And we can use just this one example, this one part of his platform,

00:11:55.900 to show how utterly foolish the whole thing is

00:11:58.680 and how utterly foolish the people who voted for him are,

00:12:01.600 these morons who, all they hear is, 0.52

00:12:05.080 oh, cheaper groceries or free groceries.

00:12:09.740 Must be good.

00:12:11.620 Not going to think any more deeply about it than that.

00:12:14.940 But if you do think about it for more than five seconds,

00:12:17.520 what you realize is that in this country,

00:12:20.180 the typical grocery store has a profit margin of roughly 2% to 3%.

00:12:25.020 They're not colluding with other stores to extract some insane profit

00:12:30.200 in violation of antitrust laws.

00:12:32.320 Instead, the way grocery stores work is by leveraging economies of scale

00:12:36.020 to generate a lot of very small profits from a lot of individual sales,

00:12:40.040 which add up over time.

00:12:42.000 They're only functional because they're efficient,

00:12:44.280 which is the opposite of how the government works.

00:12:46.820 And even then, they're barely turning a profit on every sale.

00:12:50.640 So if you're some kind of greedy, capitalist, Gordon Gekko-like figure,

00:12:55.560 the grocery business is not the kind of business that you would get into.

00:13:00.880 So if you want to create government-run grocery stores,

00:13:04.240 then, I mean, you might as well create government-run restaurants

00:13:06.760 and technology companies and car dealerships,

00:13:09.200 which, of course, the most likely new mayor of New York

00:13:13.800 would love to do as well, I'm sure.

00:13:15.820 I mean, you might as well nationalize the entire economy

00:13:17.820 and turn the United States into Venezuela.

00:13:19.300 After all, of all the things you can nationalize,

00:13:22.740 grocery stores are the worst.

00:13:25.460 That's like the most extreme.

00:13:26.900 So as usual, radical leftists,

00:13:29.380 they don't follow the slippery slope trajectory

00:13:31.820 in a kind of neat and gradual way.

00:13:35.260 What they so often do is they start with the most extreme thing

00:13:39.080 and work backwards from there.

00:13:42.840 Now, if this conversation sounds familiar,

00:13:44.600 it's because Kamala Harris also ran on the idea

00:13:47.020 of price controls for grocery stores,

00:13:48.860 which is just socialism, of course.

00:13:50.820 It was rejected by voters in every swing state

00:13:53.400 because it doesn't work.

00:13:54.780 But it just won in New York,

00:13:56.280 thanks largely to well-off voters

00:13:57.920 who will never need to shop

00:13:59.700 at a government-run grocery store.

00:14:01.380 That's why the blue-collar workers 0.86

00:14:03.140 didn't vote for this communist.

00:14:05.800 They saw what happened in San Francisco and Chicago

00:14:08.300 and every other jurisdiction on the planet

00:14:09.860 when people like this are put in power.

00:14:13.740 It ends in widespread poverty and destruction

00:14:17.080 every single time,

00:14:18.380 and that's what's going to happen soon

00:14:20.060 in our largest city.

00:14:22.020 There are broader implications here as well

00:14:24.300 beyond the disaster that's about to befall New Yorkers.

00:14:27.720 Whatever happens in the general election,

00:14:29.380 it's safe to say that less than 25 years after 9-11,

00:14:33.520 New York has been conquered.

00:14:35.580 All of the trillions of dollars we've spent

00:14:37.780 on fighting the war on terror,

00:14:39.860 all the American lives that have been lost here and abroad,

00:14:42.680 have not prevented an anti-American Muslim

00:14:45.160 from taking control of America's largest city.

00:14:48.880 I mean, we've spent the last 25 years

00:14:50.540 bringing freedom and democracy

00:14:52.900 to countries around the globe,

00:14:54.520 while our own country has been systematically invaded,

00:14:57.540 and now our largest cities

00:14:59.060 are run by foreigners and communists.

00:15:02.060 So if you want to know

00:15:03.020 why I'm so avowedly non-interventionist,

00:15:05.320 this is why.

00:15:07.600 And keep in mind,

00:15:08.240 this guy's a legal immigrant on top of that.

00:15:11.140 And we allowed him into this country, 0.99

00:15:13.600 we granted him citizenship,

00:15:14.640 even though he doesn't share any of our values.

00:15:18.240 He hates America.

00:15:20.860 And that's how seriously we've protected the homeland

00:15:23.060 after 9-11.

00:15:24.000 We've rolled out the red carpet

00:15:25.120 for foreign nationals

00:15:26.260 who are going to destroy us from within.

00:15:29.580 You know, if New York City were a country,

00:15:31.320 its GDP would rank around the 12th largest globally.

00:15:35.920 And now there's a very good chance

00:15:37.240 it's going to be in the hands of a man 0.73

00:15:38.560 who hasn't even been a citizen for a decade,

00:15:41.600 who fakes his accents,

00:15:43.500 who sees capitalism,

00:15:44.680 the economic engine

00:15:45.480 that has single-handedly prevented this country

00:15:47.020 from becoming another Uganda, 0.78

00:15:48.600 as an enemy to be vanquished.

00:15:51.440 This is a man whose own mother

00:15:52.920 has reportedly said,

00:15:54.120 quote,

00:15:54.980 he's not an American at all.

00:15:58.180 And in that way,

00:15:59.080 he has a lot of company in New York City

00:16:00.560 where 40%,

00:16:01.800 40% of the city's population

00:16:04.780 was not born in this country.

00:16:07.160 Now, hearing all this,

00:16:10.020 you might say,

00:16:10.540 well, New York's always been

00:16:12.000 a left-wing cesspool.

00:16:13.180 It's always been

00:16:13.800 a little dysfunctional.

00:16:16.260 That's not exactly true.

00:16:17.860 I mean, a few decades ago,

00:16:18.740 only around 20% of the city

00:16:20.020 was born in a foreign country,

00:16:21.600 which is still high.

00:16:23.660 Now the number is close

00:16:24.700 to double that figure.

00:16:27.080 And what do you know?

00:16:28.560 Hot on the heels

00:16:29.160 of demographic replacement,

00:16:30.480 New York is poised

00:16:31.360 to have a third world mayor.

00:16:32.760 The slogans are true.

00:16:34.580 Demographics are destiny.

00:16:36.340 Import the third world, 1.00

00:16:37.320 become the third world. 0.93

00:16:38.000 It's all true.

00:16:40.680 And New York will learn

00:16:41.480 that when they,

00:16:42.560 we'll learn all that

00:16:43.520 when they have a mayor

00:16:44.260 who proudly tweeted,

00:16:45.380 and I quote,

00:16:46.580 queer liberation means

00:16:47.760 defund the police.

00:16:50.560 He also called the NYPD,

00:16:51.960 quote,

00:16:52.080 racist, anti-queer,

00:16:53.460 and a major threat

00:16:54.260 to public safety.

00:16:57.200 College-educated New Yorkers,

00:16:58.560 as well as foreign nationals,

00:16:59.800 are the reason he won.

00:17:01.080 There's no debate about that.

00:17:02.720 But here's just one exit poll

00:17:04.260 to give you an idea.

00:17:05.180 You can see it here.

00:17:06.860 And as you can see,

00:17:07.540 New Yorkers with the lowest incomes

00:17:09.420 were the ones who rejected

00:17:10.760 Zoran Mamdani.

00:17:14.140 And you might think

00:17:15.000 that the poorest voters

00:17:16.060 would support the socialists,

00:17:17.400 but at least that's

00:17:18.300 what we're led to believe.

00:17:19.180 That's not the case.

00:17:20.440 And that's probably because

00:17:21.380 unlike college-educated New Yorkers

00:17:23.000 who were taught to despise

00:17:24.100 this country

00:17:24.880 and leech as much as possible,

00:17:27.000 poor New Yorkers

00:17:28.240 didn't undergo

00:17:28.960 all the same brainwashing

00:17:30.320 in these institutions.

00:17:31.360 And as a result,

00:17:31.980 very soon,

00:17:33.400 New Yorkers will discover

00:17:34.220 that, you know,

00:17:35.340 stop and frisk

00:17:36.300 wasn't actually so bad.

00:17:38.480 The alternative

00:17:39.280 is lawlessness

00:17:40.280 and socialism,

00:17:41.120 which will trigger

00:17:41.880 a death spiral

00:17:42.900 in New York.

00:17:44.360 Wealthy New Yorkers

00:17:45.260 who would be forced

00:17:46.100 to fund all these

00:17:46.900 social experiments

00:17:47.820 that this new mayor

00:17:49.220 wants to undertake

00:17:49.900 will simply leave.

00:17:51.680 And once that happens,

00:17:52.880 New York will no longer

00:17:53.640 have a GDP

00:17:54.220 that rivals most other

00:17:55.240 countries in the world.

00:17:56.380 We will witness

00:17:57.440 in real time

00:17:58.120 the slow

00:17:58.720 and managed destruction

00:17:59.960 of a once

00:18:01.020 world-class city.

00:18:03.060 Again,

00:18:04.160 another one.

00:18:06.700 And, you know,

00:18:07.020 that's not something

00:18:07.620 to celebrate

00:18:08.120 regardless of your politics,

00:18:09.500 as tempting as it may be.

00:18:12.080 I wish that I could just say,

00:18:14.060 as I've seen a lot

00:18:14.720 of conservatives say,

00:18:15.420 understandably,

00:18:16.000 I understand the sentiment,

00:18:17.540 but I wish I could just say,

00:18:18.720 good riddance.

00:18:21.160 I wish I could say that

00:18:22.180 to all the major

00:18:22.780 American cities

00:18:23.420 that have fallen

00:18:24.000 into decay and disorder

00:18:25.260 thanks to their awful leaders

00:18:26.640 and the suicidal idiots 0.89

00:18:27.800 who elect them.

00:18:28.420 But, as an American,

00:18:30.600 I actually want

00:18:32.080 these cities to be great.

00:18:33.960 They used to be.

00:18:36.280 They could be again.

00:18:39.120 And that's why

00:18:39.800 I have so much contempt

00:18:40.760 for the parasites

00:18:41.520 who've destroyed them.

00:18:43.740 These are American cities.

00:18:45.860 That means that

00:18:46.600 they're our cities, too.

00:18:48.980 And these morons

00:18:50.420 have ruined them.

00:18:53.720 Suddenly,

00:18:54.280 the fall of Pride Month,

00:18:55.540 doesn't seem

00:18:57.140 as significant.

00:19:00.400 The election

00:19:01.160 of a Muslim socialist

00:19:02.420 to be the next mayor

00:19:03.300 of New York City

00:19:04.040 is very clear evidence

00:19:05.420 that wokeness

00:19:06.300 and left-wing ideology

00:19:07.380 are still very much alive

00:19:09.780 in this country.

00:19:11.180 And you say what you will

00:19:11.820 about Andrew Cuomo's

00:19:12.880 disastrous handling

00:19:13.780 of COVID

00:19:14.240 and all of his weakness

00:19:15.800 as a candidate,

00:19:17.480 which was substantial,

00:19:20.320 there's still

00:19:21.240 no other explanation

00:19:22.080 for what happened

00:19:22.680 last night.

00:19:23.140 This primary demonstrates

00:19:25.380 once again

00:19:25.920 that the culture war

00:19:26.680 continues.

00:19:27.220 It just moves

00:19:27.660 to new battlefields.

00:19:28.460 This is how the left

00:19:29.080 operates.

00:19:30.360 It shapeshifts

00:19:31.180 and rebrands

00:19:32.040 and grows new tentacles.

00:19:33.240 It finds new Trojan horses.

00:19:35.800 But it's always

00:19:36.520 the same enemy

00:19:37.180 underneath it all.

00:19:39.300 And as New Yorkers

00:19:40.020 are about to discover,

00:19:40.940 the enemy is even

00:19:42.000 more potent

00:19:42.600 and more capable

00:19:44.500 of ruining millions

00:19:45.360 of lives

00:19:45.880 than it's ever been.

00:19:47.760 New York

00:19:48.240 and the entire country

00:19:49.060 has just suffered

00:19:49.640 a catastrophic blow

00:19:53.140 and if we're going

00:19:54.220 to preserve

00:19:54.600 what's left of America,

00:19:55.780 we have to,

00:19:56.780 as I've been saying,

00:19:58.860 return the focus

00:19:59.840 to what's happening

00:20:00.780 within our own borders,

00:20:02.360 which is that right now

00:20:04.520 the invaders are winning.

00:20:06.640 I mean,

00:20:06.800 it's not easy to admit,

00:20:07.960 but it's true.

00:20:10.420 They're going to claim

00:20:11.460 our largest city

00:20:13.500 and they are

00:20:15.740 a far greater threat

00:20:16.740 to our sovereignty

00:20:17.480 and our security

00:20:18.140 than any country

00:20:18.880 that's 6,000 miles away.

00:20:20.160 Unless we want

00:20:22.420 the entire country

00:20:23.740 to suffer the same fate

00:20:24.920 as New York,

00:20:26.680 we have to recognize

00:20:27.620 that fact.

00:20:28.140 We have to treat

00:20:28.860 these foreign socialists

00:20:30.760 like the mortal enemy

00:20:31.840 that they are.

00:20:34.260 After last night,

00:20:35.160 we can either choose

00:20:35.800 to fight

00:20:36.240 or we can become

00:20:38.100 Uganda.

00:20:40.300 Voters in New York,

00:20:41.260 many of whom

00:20:41.680 aren't even American, 0.99

00:20:42.600 have made their choice.

00:20:44.680 Now the rest of us

00:20:45.580 have to stop wasting

00:20:46.220 our time obsessing

00:20:47.080 over whatever's happening

00:20:47.840 across the globe

00:20:48.540 and make our choice

00:20:50.240 as clear as we possibly can.

00:20:54.020 Now let's get to

00:20:54.700 our five headlines.

00:21:01.120 What started as an idea

00:21:02.500 is now the podcast

00:21:03.800 and business

00:21:04.440 blasting through

00:21:05.420 your earbuds.

00:21:06.860 Launching your own business

00:21:08.000 is pretty much

00:21:08.740 on everyone's bucket list,

00:21:10.080 but most people

00:21:10.620 let it collect dust

00:21:11.460 right next to

00:21:12.000 learn a language

00:21:12.680 and get abs.

00:21:13.840 Stop hiding behind

00:21:14.720 lame excuses like

00:21:15.660 I don't have the skills,

00:21:16.620 I can't do it alone.

00:22:22.540 You know what this

00:22:24.680 country needs more of?

00:22:25.580 Strong men.

00:22:26.480 Mentally,

00:22:27.080 physically,

00:22:27.540 and morally.

00:22:28.280 But most men

00:22:29.280 these days

00:22:29.720 aren't operating

00:22:30.560 at full strength.

00:22:31.760 Worn down

00:22:32.160 by long days,

00:22:33.120 poor sleep,

00:22:33.700 and worse nutrition.

00:22:35.100 That's why I recommend

00:23:18.160 And we'll get

00:23:18.940 into the headlines.

00:23:19.900 I will say that

00:23:20.780 the, just,

00:23:21.680 just,

00:23:22.940 the,

00:23:23.360 to emphasize the point,

00:23:25.240 the,

00:23:25.460 the most

00:23:26.360 frustrating thing

00:23:27.200 is that now

00:23:27.980 New Yorkers

00:23:29.680 are going to

00:23:30.400 flee in droves

00:23:31.280 even more

00:23:31.800 than they already have.

00:23:33.060 They're going to

00:23:33.620 flee down to Florida

00:23:34.640 or wherever else.

00:23:36.820 And now,

00:23:37.420 if you're Florida,

00:23:38.280 if you're Tennessee,

00:23:39.100 if you're any,

00:23:39.460 you know,

00:23:39.680 if you're Texas,

00:23:40.480 you might want to

00:23:41.240 start building

00:23:41.900 your own walls.

00:23:45.280 Now we know,

00:23:45.880 we need the big wall

00:23:47.180 on the southern border.

00:23:47.780 Now we're going to need

00:23:48.100 a whole bunch of other

00:23:48.700 smaller walls

00:23:49.780 around a lot of these states.

00:23:52.960 And this is what they do.

00:23:55.180 You know,

00:23:55.620 on X,

00:23:56.220 Mike Cernovich said

00:23:57.320 that they're,

00:23:57.780 that they're,

00:23:58.240 they're fleeing

00:23:59.200 like locusts

00:23:59.960 to devour

00:24:00.440 another host.

00:24:01.400 You know,

00:24:01.580 the New Yorkers will.

00:24:02.780 And I think that,

00:24:03.240 I think that states it perfectly

00:24:04.240 like locusts,

00:24:05.280 like bedbugs,

00:24:06.280 whatever,

00:24:07.280 whatever kind of

00:24:08.980 parasitic life form

00:24:10.520 you want to use

00:24:11.200 as an analogy.

00:24:12.140 And that,

00:24:12.800 that's what's frustrating

00:24:13.500 because like,

00:24:14.160 here's an idea.

00:24:16.580 Here's an idea.

00:24:19.600 Why don't you stay

00:24:20.860 and fix your own city?

00:24:25.280 Okay,

00:24:25.680 we always hear

00:24:26.200 from like New Yorkers,

00:24:27.660 they're so,

00:24:27.920 I'm so proud,

00:24:28.700 they're so proud

00:24:29.280 to be from New York.

00:24:32.700 And then they destroy

00:24:33.680 their city

00:24:34.060 and they leave.

00:24:35.520 So if you're so proud,

00:24:36.760 why don't you stay there

00:24:37.820 and fix your own city?

00:24:39.060 Have some courage,

00:24:40.400 have some pride,

00:24:41.700 have some accountability.

00:24:42.560 actually engage

00:24:45.240 in some self-reflection

00:24:46.880 and figure out

00:24:48.500 why the city

00:24:50.240 turned to crap,

00:24:51.380 what it is that you did

00:24:53.160 to cause this problem.

00:24:58.240 Because if you're

00:24:59.100 a New Yorker,

00:25:00.100 this,

00:25:00.780 this is you.

00:25:02.260 You can't just blame,

00:25:03.260 oh,

00:25:03.340 it's all the politicians.

00:25:04.340 You elected them

00:25:05.400 repeatedly.

00:25:07.200 You kept electing people

00:25:08.820 who promised

00:25:09.400 to destroy your community.

00:25:10.520 So this is on you.

00:25:11.320 It's your fault.

00:25:12.560 The people of New York City,

00:25:13.880 it is your fault. 0.61

00:25:14.620 You did this.

00:25:15.160 Your fault.

00:25:15.680 It's on you.

00:25:17.120 You idiots,

00:25:18.220 you did this.

00:25:20.100 And now it's going

00:25:20.760 to get a lot worse.

00:25:21.760 And your lives

00:25:22.460 are going to get

00:25:22.680 a lot more miserable

00:25:23.300 and you're going to be,

00:25:24.080 you're going to be less safe

00:25:25.120 and you're going to be,

00:25:25.800 you're going to be poorer

00:25:27.280 and everything else

00:25:29.060 and less happy

00:25:29.740 and you did it to yourself.

00:25:31.340 Well,

00:25:31.760 why don't you

00:25:32.560 have a little bit

00:25:33.620 of integrity

00:25:34.080 for a change?

00:25:36.340 Just a little bit

00:25:37.320 of self-reflection.

00:25:39.820 Okay,

00:25:40.220 come to terms with that.

00:25:41.720 Stay in your own city.

00:25:42.540 Why is it that your city

00:25:47.460 is now a smoldering

00:25:48.300 pile of garbage?

00:25:51.180 It's not just New York,

00:25:52.400 Chicago,

00:25:53.260 Los Angeles.

00:25:53.980 I mean,

00:25:54.140 we could go down the list

00:25:54.960 of major American cities.

00:25:57.440 Cities that,

00:25:58.100 like I said,

00:25:58.520 they're our cities too.

00:25:59.600 These are American cities

00:26:00.740 and these were once

00:26:01.780 great cities.

00:26:03.480 You destroyed them.

00:26:05.940 You idiots.

00:26:06.740 So why don't you

00:26:10.460 figure that out

00:26:11.040 and then do the opposite

00:26:12.180 of whatever you did

00:26:12.840 to cause the problem?

00:26:16.900 And it's the same thing

00:26:17.940 for a lot of the immigrants

00:26:19.140 who come here.

00:26:20.900 Frankly,

00:26:21.340 a lot of the third world 0.99

00:26:22.480 immigrants

00:26:22.820 who come to this country.

00:26:25.660 Why don't you have

00:26:26.160 some pride

00:26:26.580 in your homeland?

00:26:27.600 You claim that you do.

00:26:28.540 You come to this country

00:26:29.300 and you wave the flag

00:26:31.320 of the country

00:26:31.800 that you fled from

00:26:32.860 and you talk about

00:26:34.160 how proud of it you are

00:26:35.320 and you still speak

00:26:36.820 your language

00:26:37.340 and you come here

00:26:38.140 and you try to set up

00:26:38.940 your own little versions

00:26:40.580 of your country

00:26:41.420 inside our country.

00:26:42.940 Well,

00:26:43.160 you're so proud of it.

00:26:45.060 Why don't you think about

00:26:46.000 why are you leaving?

00:26:48.000 Well,

00:26:48.440 we know why you're leaving

00:26:49.200 because the country

00:26:50.160 is a hellhole

00:26:51.080 because it's totally

00:26:52.420 dysfunctional

00:26:53.360 and that's why

00:26:54.620 you want to leave.

00:26:56.080 Why is that?

00:26:57.000 What happened to it?

00:26:59.120 What did you do to it?

00:27:00.920 What did you allow

00:27:01.720 to happen to it?

00:27:03.020 Why don't you take

00:27:03.420 some responsibility?

00:27:04.440 Why don't you have

00:27:04.720 some actual pride

00:27:05.580 in your country?

00:27:06.800 Stay there

00:27:07.520 and fix it.

00:27:10.240 Why don't you fight

00:27:11.140 for your countries

00:27:12.000 instead of just

00:27:14.080 running away?

00:27:18.040 How's that for an idea?

00:27:20.940 So what you see

00:27:21.680 with New Yorkers

00:27:22.420 and people from Los Angeles

00:27:24.160 and all these major cities,

00:27:25.920 while you see it

00:27:26.360 on a kind of micro scale,

00:27:27.360 you see it on the macro scale too.

00:27:30.960 And the common theme

00:27:32.140 is like people

00:27:32.700 they're in a place

00:27:33.560 and they destroy it

00:27:34.740 and then they don't

00:27:35.440 and then they just leave

00:27:36.420 and then they go

00:27:36.860 destroy something else too.

00:27:43.060 And the rest of us,

00:27:44.540 you know,

00:27:45.940 the rest of us

00:27:46.460 who know how to build

00:27:47.560 and maintain

00:27:48.380 functioning communities,

00:27:50.340 functioning safe communities

00:27:51.660 where we can like

00:27:52.640 walk down the street

00:27:53.800 with our families

00:27:54.660 and feel safe.

00:27:58.840 like the rest of us,

00:28:01.360 we're supposed to just

00:28:02.020 put up with that.

00:28:07.940 All right,

00:28:08.360 I think it's been a little while

00:28:09.260 since we've

00:28:09.840 enjoyed some

00:28:11.600 dumb Jasmine clips 0.89

00:28:13.480 on this show.

00:28:14.280 Usually Jasmine Crockett

00:28:15.220 provides us with

00:28:15.840 at least one segment a week,

00:28:17.560 but she's been

00:28:18.360 slipping lately.

00:28:19.920 Maybe I have,

00:28:20.480 I don't know,

00:28:20.760 but she's recently

00:28:24.040 this week

00:28:24.560 been having temper tantrums

00:28:25.800 over the Iran strike

00:28:27.800 and specifically

00:28:28.980 she's upset

00:28:29.680 that she was not

00:28:30.540 personally consulted

00:28:31.620 about it.

00:28:33.800 And so I'll play

00:28:34.360 two clips

00:28:35.000 of several

00:28:36.340 that I could play,

00:28:37.080 but we'll play

00:28:37.420 these two

00:28:37.980 and you kind of

00:28:39.040 get the gist.

00:28:39.680 Here it is.

00:28:40.320 Let me tell you,

00:28:41.860 just dropping

00:28:42.480 those few bombs

00:28:43.380 in one day,

00:28:44.180 that was the beginning

00:28:45.100 of what is going

00:28:46.120 to be a very long

00:28:47.660 bill for us

00:28:48.820 as they talk

00:28:49.500 about being efficient.

00:28:50.700 There was nothing

00:28:51.300 efficient about doing it

00:28:53.100 and maybe if there

00:28:53.820 was some consultation,

00:28:55.400 maybe with those

00:28:56.440 that say have

00:28:57.540 constitutional authority

00:28:58.780 since we care

00:28:59.500 about the Constitution,

00:29:01.060 then maybe we could

00:29:01.960 have saved the American

00:29:02.900 people not only money,

00:29:04.500 but the lives

00:29:05.220 that are now at risk

00:29:06.700 as we have to put out

00:29:08.220 warnings for American

00:29:09.760 citizens in this

00:29:10.800 country and abroad.

00:29:12.760 Maybe we need to start

00:29:13.960 leading with the people

00:29:15.360 at the middle

00:29:17.700 of what it is

00:29:18.880 that is guiding us

00:29:20.380 instead of following

00:29:21.820 one person.

00:29:23.280 The reason that people

00:29:24.380 like me say things

00:29:25.400 like y'all are in a cult

00:29:26.640 is because somehow

00:29:28.680 people are abdicating

00:29:30.220 their duties

00:29:30.800 and abdicating

00:29:31.960 the very people

00:29:33.160 that put them

00:29:33.780 into office.

00:29:34.580 And to understand

00:29:35.400 enough about the

00:29:36.120 Constitution to the extent

00:29:37.560 that I'm the one

00:29:38.440 that's supposed to make

00:29:39.280 a f***ing decision

00:29:40.080 or at least get them

00:29:40.800 open.

00:29:48.320 Okay, so I just want

00:29:51.680 to highlight two snippets

00:29:52.740 there.

00:29:53.120 In the first clip

00:29:53.700 she says,

00:29:54.360 and I'm quoting here,

00:29:55.780 maybe we need to start

00:29:57.300 leading with the people

00:29:58.160 at the middle

00:29:58.680 of what it is

00:29:59.340 that is guiding us

00:30:00.300 instead of following

00:30:02.680 one person.

00:30:04.880 Maybe we need to start

00:30:05.740 leading with the people

00:30:06.780 at the middle

00:30:07.440 at the middle

00:30:07.460 of what it is

00:30:08.360 that's guiding us

00:30:09.620 instead of,

00:30:11.240 I have no clue

00:30:11.980 what that means.

00:30:13.020 Like, I don't know

00:30:14.320 what she's trying

00:30:14.740 to say there.

00:30:16.060 I'm not even trying

00:30:16.920 to be difficult.

00:30:18.300 I really don't know.

00:30:19.400 I honestly don't.

00:30:21.780 Maybe we need

00:30:22.460 to start leading

00:30:23.160 with the people

00:30:23.860 at the middle

00:30:24.560 of what it is

00:30:25.380 that's guiding us.

00:30:26.320 What?

00:30:27.580 What are you,

00:30:28.600 those are just words.

00:30:29.980 She was shouting 0.99

00:30:31.340 random words.

00:30:34.540 And look,

00:30:36.900 I know everybody

00:30:37.340 knows where I stand

00:30:38.640 on the question

00:30:39.380 of Jasmine Crockett's IQ.

00:30:41.340 I think it's very low

00:30:42.180 in case you didn't know,

00:30:44.000 just to be clear.

00:30:45.520 And I probably don't need

00:30:46.380 to return to that point,

00:30:47.440 but I have to emphasize

00:30:48.800 how incredibly dumb

00:30:50.160 a person has to be 0.93

00:30:51.260 to utter a sentence

00:30:52.320 like that.

00:30:53.260 We can all misspeak.

00:30:54.560 We can all flub our words.

00:30:56.300 We can stutter

00:30:57.120 and stammer.

00:30:57.760 But to string together

00:31:00.300 a sentence like that,

00:31:01.740 totally devoid

00:31:02.620 of anything

00:31:03.040 that can be considered

00:31:03.820 a coherent meaning,

00:31:06.140 that just requires

00:31:07.020 a staggering level

00:31:08.220 of pure rank stupidity.

00:31:12.040 And then the second clip,

00:31:12.820 she says that she's the one

00:31:13.980 who's supposed to be

00:31:14.600 making the decisions

00:31:15.460 about launching

00:31:16.200 military strikes.

00:31:17.820 No, Jasmine.

00:31:19.180 That's not,

00:31:19.840 hey, hey, Jasmine.

00:31:21.360 Jasmine,

00:31:21.960 do you know where you are?

00:31:23.780 Do you know who you are?

00:31:25.960 Do you know what position

00:31:26.940 you occupy?

00:31:30.300 Honest question.

00:31:30.920 Do you know

00:31:32.180 that you're not the president?

00:31:34.960 I'm asking that sincerely.

00:31:37.060 I really am.

00:31:37.540 I don't even mean it sarcastically.

00:31:40.140 Do you know

00:31:41.380 that you are

00:31:42.160 a congressional representative?

00:31:44.320 Because it occurs to me

00:31:46.520 that you might not

00:31:47.260 even actually know

00:31:48.100 what position

00:31:48.540 you were elected to.

00:31:50.060 You might not.

00:31:51.840 Well, if that's the case,

00:31:52.940 I should tell you

00:31:53.680 that you are in Congress,

00:31:54.880 you're a congressional representative.

00:31:55.720 So, no,

00:31:56.760 you don't make

00:31:57.440 those kinds of decisions.

00:31:59.000 The Trump makes them

00:32:00.080 because he's the commander-in-chief.

00:32:01.420 The commander-in-chief

00:32:02.080 is,

00:32:05.540 and by the way,

00:32:06.420 commander-in-chief,

00:32:07.260 that is not like,

00:32:08.840 I don't,

00:32:09.120 he's not the coach

00:32:09.860 of the football team

00:32:10.640 in Kansas City.

00:32:12.080 He's the commander-in-chief.

00:32:13.200 He commands

00:32:13.860 our armed forces, okay?

00:32:16.060 And,

00:32:16.640 and since we're on this subject,

00:32:19.260 I will,

00:32:19.580 I will say that,

00:32:22.160 and everyone knows

00:32:22.860 how I feel

00:32:23.380 about the U.S.

00:32:24.280 getting involved

00:32:24.860 in Iran.

00:32:26.000 I was against it,

00:32:26.840 I'm against it,

00:32:27.420 but even so,

00:32:28.660 I don't agree

00:32:29.200 with even the more

00:32:30.260 intelligent people,

00:32:31.900 which is a low bar,

00:32:33.020 but there have been even,

00:32:34.960 there have been actually

00:32:35.880 intelligent people

00:32:36.820 who have,

00:32:37.220 who have accused Trump

00:32:38.620 of violating the Constitution

00:32:39.780 by launching the strikes,

00:32:41.020 and I don't agree with that.

00:32:43.600 Even as someone

00:32:44.280 who wasn't a fan of it,

00:32:45.780 I'll still say

00:32:47.080 he had the authority

00:32:47.740 to do it.

00:32:48.780 Doesn't mean it was

00:32:49.400 the right move,

00:32:50.080 but yeah,

00:32:50.740 of course he had the authority.

00:32:51.560 He's the commander-in-chief.

00:32:52.800 He has the authority

00:32:53.720 to direct the military,

00:32:54.860 to launch military operations,

00:32:56.560 and obviously presidents

00:32:58.340 have been doing this

00:32:59.260 since always,

00:33:00.880 and they've been doing it

00:33:02.980 without formal declarations

00:33:04.260 of war

00:33:04.720 or congressional approval.

00:33:05.620 Biden did,

00:33:06.600 Obama did,

00:33:07.200 Clinton did,

00:33:07.960 all the way down the line,

00:33:09.100 which is why

00:33:11.000 the whole congressional approval

00:33:12.160 thing is just

00:33:12.820 such a red herring,

00:33:14.560 you know,

00:33:14.840 and we know

00:33:15.380 that Democrats

00:33:15.820 only complain about that

00:33:16.800 when it's a Republican president.

00:33:18.280 We know that.

00:33:18.620 I mean,

00:33:18.720 Obama launched

00:33:19.780 drone strikes

00:33:21.100 against American citizens.

00:33:23.220 He killed American citizens 0.99

00:33:24.640 with drones,

00:33:25.680 and there was

00:33:27.600 very little pushback

00:33:28.460 from Democrats

00:33:29.960 in Congress

00:33:30.460 at the time.

00:33:31.200 It's not something

00:33:31.580 you hear Jasmine Crockett

00:33:32.380 talk about.

00:33:36.040 So,

00:33:36.580 I think all that

00:33:37.200 is just

00:33:37.640 sort of absurd.

00:33:39.860 Since we're on the subject

00:33:40.660 of female members

00:33:42.100 of Congress

00:33:42.580 who frequently annoy me,

00:33:43.880 here's Congresswoman 0.96

00:33:44.860 Brittany Peterson,

00:33:45.900 and she's the one

00:33:46.860 who's been showing up

00:33:47.640 in Congress

00:33:48.140 carrying her baby,

00:33:50.420 turning her child 0.94

00:33:51.020 into a prop,

00:33:52.200 and she's been doing

00:33:52.860 this for months,

00:33:54.380 and it started

00:33:55.240 as a protest

00:33:56.120 ostensibly demanding

00:33:57.480 that members of Congress

00:33:58.640 be allowed

00:33:59.080 to work from home,

00:34:00.180 but she just continues

00:34:01.460 doing it.

00:34:02.400 So now,

00:34:02.680 here she is

00:34:03.180 at a congressional hearing,

00:34:04.500 a hearing on monetary policy

00:34:06.300 with her child

00:34:08.000 on her lap

00:34:08.700 as a prop,

00:34:10.560 as always.

00:34:11.700 It's a ludicrous sight.

00:34:13.820 Here it is.

00:34:14.220 Watch.

00:34:14.400 Thank you for

00:34:15.840 your long service

00:34:16.880 to our country.

00:34:18.060 I know that you've

00:34:19.240 served under

00:34:20.280 many Democrats,

00:34:21.840 Republicans.

00:34:23.160 You've always

00:34:24.040 been nonpartisan

00:34:25.660 and done your job

00:34:26.400 to put our country first,

00:34:27.600 and we appreciate

00:34:28.380 your steadfast leadership,

00:34:30.360 and if you are not

00:34:32.480 reappointed,

00:34:33.540 we'll be

00:34:34.200 very missed here.

00:34:36.160 It's hard to imagine

00:34:37.320 that Congress

00:34:37.960 could become

00:34:39.440 any more of a joke

00:34:40.320 than it already was,

00:34:42.200 but then these

00:34:43.540 these women 0.99

00:34:44.440 like Crockett

00:34:45.300 and this lady, 0.63

00:34:46.240 they come along

00:34:47.100 and they somehow

00:34:47.460 turn it into

00:34:48.020 a bigger farce.

00:34:50.200 And keep in mind,

00:34:52.220 Congress

00:34:52.720 has a daycare center

00:34:55.000 that's open

00:34:55.940 like 18 hours a day.

00:34:57.640 They have high-quality

00:34:58.980 taxpayer-subsidized

00:35:01.220 daycare

00:35:01.920 on the premises,

00:35:04.200 and yet this woman

00:35:05.740 carries her baby

00:35:07.060 around with her,

00:35:07.980 not out of necessity,

00:35:09.680 but because it's part

00:35:10.780 of this dumb performance.

00:35:13.220 And I'll be the first

00:35:14.200 to say that we need,

00:35:16.120 that society should be

00:35:17.500 more welcoming

00:35:18.320 to young families.

00:35:19.800 I talk about that

00:35:20.720 all the time.

00:35:21.900 Children should be

00:35:22.540 included more often

00:35:23.640 in more ways,

00:35:25.160 in more contexts.

00:35:28.080 Like,

00:35:28.600 you shouldn't feel guilty

00:35:29.360 bringing your kid

00:35:30.240 into a grocery store

00:35:31.480 or a restaurant.

00:35:33.700 Right?

00:35:34.160 We've talked about

00:35:34.640 that before.

00:35:35.540 But not at a

00:35:36.400 congressional hearing.

00:35:38.860 I mean,

00:35:39.080 there are places

00:35:39.620 in society

00:35:40.100 where it's not

00:35:40.720 appropriate

00:35:41.080 to bring a child,

00:35:42.200 obviously,

00:35:42.620 and this is one of them.

00:35:46.220 Now,

00:35:46.780 the response

00:35:47.720 that I'll hear

00:35:48.180 is that Brittany

00:35:48.780 doesn't want

00:35:49.640 to leave her child 0.95

00:35:50.400 in daycare.

00:35:52.900 She doesn't want 1.00

00:35:53.640 to leave her child 0.95

00:35:54.280 at home

00:35:54.780 while she travels

00:35:55.360 to D.C. for work.

00:35:56.440 And I get that.

00:35:57.560 I agree, actually.

00:36:00.100 So go home, Brittany. 0.85

00:36:01.440 Go home

00:36:02.180 and be a mother

00:36:02.820 to your child.

00:36:04.940 Go be a mother. 0.98

00:36:05.860 Let someone else

00:36:06.500 handle the congressional work.

00:36:09.620 Okay?

00:36:09.920 Like,

00:36:10.120 we don't need you

00:36:10.600 for that.

00:36:11.400 You're not even good

00:36:12.040 at that anyway.

00:36:13.240 So anyone else

00:36:15.340 can handle it.

00:36:17.220 And it'll be fine.

00:36:19.460 And just to show you

00:36:19.980 how dumb

00:36:20.480 our political discourse is,

00:36:21.680 as though you needed

00:36:22.360 more evidence,

00:36:23.260 I want to read

00:36:23.740 some comments to you

00:36:24.440 because I posted

00:36:24.960 about this on X

00:36:25.660 that she should go home

00:36:28.080 and be a mother

00:36:28.740 to her child.

00:36:29.560 And I want to read

00:36:30.040 some of the top responses

00:36:31.280 to that,

00:36:32.840 which I think

00:36:33.200 is very simple.

00:36:34.300 Like,

00:36:34.520 you're carrying

00:36:35.280 your kid around.

00:36:36.040 You're at a congressional

00:36:36.680 hearing with a baby.

00:36:38.340 Okay?

00:36:38.540 No one has ever done that.

00:36:39.740 We don't do that.

00:36:44.280 And,

00:36:44.460 I mean,

00:36:46.920 it's like

00:36:47.260 if the president

00:36:50.040 of the United,

00:36:50.860 God forbid,

00:36:51.860 Brittany Peterson

00:36:52.680 somehow becomes

00:36:53.220 elected president,

00:36:53.940 which will never happen,

00:36:55.340 given the state

00:36:56.040 of the union,

00:36:56.620 just like holding

00:36:57.140 a baby the whole time.

00:36:58.060 So,

00:37:00.840 clearly it's ridiculous,

00:37:02.760 but,

00:37:04.360 should be an obvious point,

00:37:05.700 but I just want to

00:37:06.320 read some of these.

00:37:06.820 So,

00:37:07.120 here's a response

00:37:07.820 from an account

00:37:08.200 called Joyful Laughs.

00:37:10.260 Says,

00:37:12.040 the right told her

00:37:12.780 to have that baby.

00:37:13.900 She did,

00:37:14.700 and now she needs 0.63

00:37:15.340 to bring him to work.

00:37:16.760 I don't know

00:37:17.120 what the problem is.

00:37:20.240 Wait,

00:37:20.500 what is that?

00:37:21.620 The right told her

00:37:22.720 to have a baby?

00:37:24.060 Who on the right

00:37:26.740 said that?

00:37:28.060 Was there some kind

00:37:28.800 of campaign

00:37:29.420 among conservatives

00:37:31.140 to force Brittany Peterson 0.99

00:37:32.400 to have a baby?

00:37:34.060 I must have missed that.

00:37:35.920 I missed the rally

00:37:38.260 in the nation's capital

00:37:39.100 calling upon Brittany Peterson

00:37:40.700 to have a baby.

00:37:43.240 Not saying it didn't happen. 0.63

00:37:45.660 Granted,

00:37:45.980 I don't always see the emails.

00:37:48.480 You know,

00:37:48.760 the right-wing conspiracy.

00:37:49.800 We're all in an email chain.

00:37:50.840 We send emails around.

00:37:51.600 I don't,

00:37:52.160 I'm notoriously bad

00:37:53.620 at checking emails,

00:37:54.520 and so I miss a lot of them.

00:37:56.700 And so there are a lot

00:37:57.300 of updates

00:37:57.740 to the right-wing conspiracy

00:37:58.760 that I don't see.

00:38:01.940 And maybe this one,

00:38:02.960 maybe this is in it.

00:38:03.660 Maybe this was,

00:38:04.260 maybe it was like,

00:38:04.920 hey guys,

00:38:05.340 we're gonna,

00:38:05.900 the next item on the agenda,

00:38:07.520 there's this woman 0.99

00:38:08.200 named Brittany Peterson.

00:38:09.220 We're gonna force her 1.00

00:38:10.500 to have a baby.

00:38:12.800 I'll go back and check,

00:38:13.720 but I don't think

00:38:14.120 that was there.

00:38:15.980 Another comment says,

00:38:17.360 wow,

00:38:17.780 did you say that to Elon

00:38:19.180 when he had his kid

00:38:20.640 with him at the White House?

00:38:21.860 Well,

00:38:22.060 Elon,

00:38:22.460 wasn't paid

00:38:24.460 by the taxpayers.

00:38:25.760 He wasn't a member

00:38:26.680 of Congress.

00:38:27.340 He wasn't bringing his kid

00:38:28.540 to congressional hearings

00:38:30.200 or to testify

00:38:31.760 on the floor

00:38:32.400 of the House.

00:38:35.020 So,

00:38:35.540 no,

00:38:35.800 I didn't say that to him

00:38:36.620 because it's not

00:38:37.280 the same thing.

00:38:38.260 Again,

00:38:38.620 not everything is,

00:38:39.420 not everything is the same

00:38:41.160 as everything else.

00:38:41.920 There are things

00:38:42.400 that are different

00:38:43.020 and this is different.

00:38:48.080 OMG,

00:38:48.560 heaven forbid

00:38:48.960 she keeps her baby

00:38:49.740 with her

00:38:50.060 instead of dumping

00:38:50.640 them off at daycare.

00:38:51.500 Maybe if it was normalized,

00:38:52.820 you wouldn't feel

00:38:53.240 so triggered

00:38:53.760 that she used

00:38:54.580 her baby

00:38:54.940 as a prop,

00:38:55.960 retards. 1.00

00:38:58.460 No,

00:38:58.860 I'd be a lot more

00:38:59.500 triggered

00:38:59.760 if this was normalized.

00:39:01.160 Like,

00:39:01.660 normalized?

00:39:02.820 So,

00:39:03.360 we'll just have kids

00:39:04.100 running all over the Capitol?

00:39:05.180 What do you mean normalized?

00:39:06.200 You want it to be

00:39:07.260 a normal thing

00:39:07.880 at congressional hearings?

00:39:09.420 Just having kids

00:39:10.040 running all,

00:39:10.600 every congressional hearing

00:39:11.520 is now like

00:39:12.000 Chuck E. Cheese?

00:39:15.320 We're going to build

00:39:16.260 a jungle gym

00:39:16.920 in the middle

00:39:17.240 of the room?

00:39:18.660 have a swing set?

00:39:23.440 I mean,

00:39:23.920 given the average IQ

00:39:24.780 of members of Congress,

00:39:25.880 it sort of is already

00:39:26.560 like that,

00:39:27.080 so maybe you have

00:39:27.620 a point.

00:39:27.980 I don't know.

00:39:29.560 All right,

00:39:30.000 one other thing

00:39:30.540 I wanted to mention

00:39:30.980 is an interesting article

00:39:31.820 from NBC News

00:39:32.600 that I've been meaning

00:39:33.440 to talk about.

00:39:34.100 the headline

00:39:35.240 is this.

00:39:38.760 The strange bedfellows

00:39:40.080 driving and winning

00:39:41.260 the war on porn.

00:39:43.220 Feminists,

00:39:43.740 religious crusaders,

00:39:44.540 and alpha male influencers

00:39:45.640 have turned the tide

00:39:46.800 in the decades-old battle

00:39:48.280 over adult content.

00:39:50.640 So,

00:39:50.840 reading a little bit,

00:39:51.320 it says,

00:39:51.520 anti-pornography crusaders

00:39:52.500 are on a winning streak.

00:39:53.320 On almost every front,

00:39:54.920 those who argue

00:39:55.460 that pornography

00:39:55.960 is a scourge in society

00:39:57.220 are racking up wins.

00:39:58.600 States are implementing

00:39:59.300 online age verification laws.

00:40:01.360 Some politicians

00:40:01.900 are pursuing aggressive bans

00:40:03.400 on explicit content.

00:40:04.960 Culturally,

00:40:05.320 the viewpoint that porn

00:40:06.040 is not only harmful to women 1.00

00:40:07.100 but increasingly men

00:40:08.040 and the sexual development

00:40:09.180 of young people

00:40:09.700 has made significant inroads

00:40:11.120 as porn has become

00:40:13.120 more mainstream

00:40:13.800 so as the discussion around it.

00:40:16.500 Pop star Gracie Adams

00:40:17.500 said in a February interview

00:40:18.460 with the Cosmopolitan,

00:40:19.600 porn is BS.

00:40:21.000 It's dangerous,

00:40:21.700 not real,

00:40:22.260 and a performance.

00:40:23.000 It's really dangerous

00:40:23.620 for young people

00:40:24.180 for that to be

00:40:25.260 their introduction to sex.

00:40:27.880 For many,

00:40:28.560 the harms of porn

00:40:29.160 are obvious.

00:40:29.900 Feminists have primarily argued 1.00

00:40:31.300 that porn normalizes

00:40:32.240 sexual violence,

00:40:33.120 contributes to the

00:40:33.680 objectification of women

00:40:34.600 and erodes

00:40:35.620 childhood sexual development.

00:40:37.860 Writing New York Times,

00:40:38.680 Christina Emba,

00:40:39.600 whose work has focused

00:40:40.640 on gender,

00:40:41.140 sexuality,

00:40:41.500 and youth norms,

00:40:42.220 recently pointed to

00:40:42.940 changing sexual habits

00:40:44.040 among young people.

00:40:45.220 Okay, so you can read

00:40:45.720 the whole article

00:40:46.160 at the NBC News site.

00:40:47.860 There's a couple of points

00:40:48.780 that come to mind.

00:40:49.320 First of all,

00:40:50.880 the thrust of the article

00:40:51.820 is correct,

00:40:52.480 that the movement

00:40:53.880 against this kind of content

00:40:55.240 has picked up

00:40:56.000 a lot of steam recently.

00:40:57.700 It's now much more popular

00:40:59.180 to be anti-smut 1.00

00:41:00.660 than it was

00:41:01.700 not that long ago.

00:41:03.800 I mean,

00:41:04.040 I've been talking about

00:41:05.060 the dangers of porn

00:41:06.600 for almost,

00:41:07.340 you know,

00:41:08.220 for 15 years.

00:41:10.720 And up until

00:41:11.940 the last few years,

00:41:12.820 the backlash,

00:41:13.760 as anyone knows,

00:41:14.900 who has been talking

00:41:15.960 about it as well

00:41:16.520 for a while,

00:41:17.640 the backlash,

00:41:18.620 even from conservatives,

00:41:20.000 was intense.

00:41:22.940 And it's not that long ago

00:41:24.640 where talking about

00:41:26.340 the dangers of pornography

00:41:27.340 wasn't a popular position

00:41:29.400 even on the right.

00:41:32.500 And,

00:41:32.940 I mean,

00:41:34.740 I vividly recall

00:41:35.500 it was back,

00:41:36.320 I think it was 2018

00:41:37.080 or 2019

00:41:37.780 when I argued

00:41:39.400 that porn

00:41:40.300 should be banned.

00:41:42.500 And the blowback

00:41:43.780 at the time

00:41:44.620 was enormous.

00:41:47.680 Right?

00:41:48.140 It was like,

00:41:49.240 and even now,

00:41:50.680 that's probably not

00:41:51.480 a majority position

00:41:52.640 that we should

00:41:53.860 ban porn altogether.

00:41:55.340 It's the right position.

00:41:56.040 But it's not

00:41:57.720 a scandalous position

00:41:58.660 to people anymore.

00:41:59.280 Like,

00:41:59.380 you can say that

00:42:00.060 without being

00:42:01.180 ripped to shreds for it.

00:42:03.260 And even people

00:42:03.760 who disagree,

00:42:04.640 many of them

00:42:05.340 will at least acknowledge

00:42:06.460 that,

00:42:06.840 okay,

00:42:06.980 it's not a crazy thing

00:42:08.020 to say.

00:42:10.340 But,

00:42:11.000 not a little long ago,

00:42:12.640 it was,

00:42:12.920 it was,

00:42:13.640 it was like,

00:42:16.100 it was,

00:42:16.560 it was insane.

00:42:18.220 It was an insane thing

00:42:18.940 to say.

00:42:20.600 And that's not

00:42:21.260 the case anymore.

00:42:21.940 What changed?

00:42:22.760 Well,

00:42:24.060 I think it,

00:42:25.180 I think it's very simple.

00:42:27.040 Those of us

00:42:27.940 who were speaking

00:42:28.780 out against porn,

00:42:29.760 we were making the case

00:42:31.140 that consuming

00:42:31.760 this kind of content

00:42:32.800 will bring misery

00:42:34.640 and dysfunction

00:42:35.460 into your life.

00:42:37.220 And it's not

00:42:37.480 the only argument

00:42:38.080 against it,

00:42:38.640 but,

00:42:38.860 but that,

00:42:39.860 you know,

00:42:40.040 that's kind of our point.

00:42:41.200 This stuff's bad for you.

00:42:42.340 Like,

00:42:42.540 the basic point is,

00:42:43.340 this is bad for you.

00:42:44.300 It's bad for you.

00:42:45.220 It's bad,

00:42:45.640 especially bad for your kids.

00:42:46.920 It's bad in general.

00:42:48.940 And we were right.

00:42:50.840 So,

00:42:51.420 misery and dysfunction

00:42:52.340 followed.

00:42:53.040 There's a lot of people

00:42:55.580 that just kind of

00:42:56.120 dismissed that.

00:42:56.720 Oh,

00:42:56.860 you're a Puritan.

00:42:57.720 You're the,

00:42:58.200 what are you,

00:42:58.540 Amish? 0.84

00:43:00.160 And they went right,

00:43:01.100 right along

00:43:01.780 with their porn habit.

00:43:03.300 And after a while,

00:43:04.600 they kind of looked

00:43:05.680 at their own life

00:43:06.380 and said,

00:43:06.800 well,

00:43:07.040 this is like,

00:43:07.660 I'm miserable.

00:43:09.020 It's,

00:43:09.160 it's,

00:43:09.460 it became obvious

00:43:10.260 to people

00:43:10.660 that this stuff is toxic.

00:43:11.920 It's not a good influence

00:43:13.020 on your life.

00:43:15.360 And the second point here

00:43:16.400 is we,

00:43:16.780 you know,

00:43:17.000 we,

00:43:17.140 we see how feminists 1.00

00:43:18.560 are getting some credit here.

00:43:21.040 Reminiscent of the

00:43:21.880 gender ideology fight 1.00

00:43:23.160 where feminists want credit 1.00

00:43:24.580 for taking a stand

00:43:25.480 against it.

00:43:27.420 The problem is that

00:43:28.560 just like gender ideology, 0.99

00:43:29.700 the vast majority

00:43:30.420 of feminists,

00:43:31.300 first of all,

00:43:32.040 still support

00:43:32.900 the evil thing,

00:43:34.740 porn in this case.

00:43:36.520 And more importantly,

00:43:37.460 your crusade

00:43:38.840 against porn,

00:43:39.540 just like the crusade

00:43:40.180 against gender ideology

00:43:41.020 will ultimately fail

00:43:43.180 if it isn't grounded

00:43:44.980 in a coherent

00:43:46.140 moral system.

00:43:51.280 Feminists can complain 1.00

00:43:52.600 about certain aspects

00:43:53.680 of this scourge

00:43:54.980 and I'm happy

00:43:56.520 to have them.

00:43:57.460 I'm happy to have anybody

00:43:58.280 on board with the fight,

00:43:59.760 you know,

00:43:59.940 to any extent

00:44:00.600 that they're on board.

00:44:01.200 Like I'd rather,

00:44:02.960 whatever help we can get

00:44:04.220 in calling attention

00:44:06.620 to this problem

00:44:07.440 and hopefully defeating it,

00:44:09.600 I'm happy to have.

00:44:10.940 But their arguments

00:44:12.620 are ultimately toothless

00:44:13.900 and groundless

00:44:14.940 because they are

00:44:16.740 at bottom themselves

00:44:18.000 moral relativists.

00:44:19.400 They ultimately believe

00:44:20.320 that truth is

00:44:20.920 whatever you say it is

00:44:21.820 and the greatest good

00:44:22.900 in life is to pursue

00:44:24.280 your own pleasure

00:44:24.960 and satisfaction.

00:44:26.420 And as long as you

00:44:27.080 believe that,

00:44:27.660 you will not be able

00:44:28.680 to fully make the case

00:44:29.920 against porn

00:44:30.580 or gender ideology

00:44:31.560 or any other evil thing

00:44:32.720 because the argument

00:44:33.940 for any evil thing

00:44:35.500 is always fundamentally

00:44:36.640 that people

00:44:38.360 should be able

00:44:39.540 to do it

00:44:39.920 because they want

00:44:40.540 to do it

00:44:40.880 and it makes them

00:44:41.420 happy,

00:44:41.820 supposedly.

00:44:45.060 Only conservatives,

00:44:46.240 religious conservatives

00:44:47.000 specifically,

00:44:48.280 have really a response

00:44:49.580 to that.

00:44:53.380 Only we can articulate

00:44:54.680 the real argument

00:44:55.640 against porn,

00:44:56.740 which is that

00:44:57.400 it is an assault

00:44:58.560 on human dignity.

00:45:00.500 We are human beings,

00:45:03.480 we're created by God,

00:45:04.860 imbued with dignity.

00:45:07.160 Your life,

00:45:08.200 your being

00:45:08.900 is sacred

00:45:10.520 because it was made

00:45:11.380 by God

00:45:11.840 and pornography

00:45:12.340 is a desecration.

00:45:13.640 It's the objectification,

00:45:14.740 commodification,

00:45:15.580 and defilement

00:45:16.640 of the human body,

00:45:19.460 the human mind,

00:45:20.140 the human soul,

00:45:21.080 the human person.

00:45:24.020 That is the argument

00:45:26.100 ultimately against it.

00:45:27.380 And so all that

00:45:34.760 to say that

00:45:35.660 we need a critical mass

00:45:38.840 of people

00:45:39.380 making that argument

00:45:41.160 because kind of

00:45:43.520 just like picking around

00:45:44.340 the edges of this thing,

00:45:47.040 the feminist argument,

00:45:47.900 oh, well,

00:45:48.220 it takes advantage

00:45:49.080 of women.

00:45:51.740 In many cases,

00:45:52.720 it does.

00:45:53.120 I mean,

00:45:53.240 the porn industry

00:45:53.680 has done that.

00:45:54.380 But that argument,

00:45:56.540 it only goes so far.

00:45:59.500 Especially when

00:46:00.100 the more you get

00:46:00.720 like OnlyFans,

00:46:02.620 it's like,

00:46:03.160 well,

00:46:03.300 it's harder and harder

00:46:04.700 to make that argument

00:46:05.700 when you got something

00:46:07.660 like OnlyFans

00:46:08.380 because now you have

00:46:10.600 women who, 0.82

00:46:11.640 in many cases,

00:46:12.460 they're not destitute,

00:46:14.000 they're not like homeless.

00:46:16.500 You have well-off

00:46:18.260 soccer moms,

00:46:19.140 basically,

00:46:19.820 who are going

00:46:20.820 into business

00:46:21.500 for themselves.

00:46:22.320 There's no pimp here.

00:46:23.420 Well,

00:46:23.700 OnlyFans basically

00:46:24.440 functions as the pimp,

00:46:25.240 but there's no,

00:46:25.960 right,

00:46:26.340 there's not,

00:46:27.700 there's no one

00:46:29.420 threatening to backhand

00:46:30.320 them if they don't

00:46:30.800 bring back the money.

00:46:32.040 Nothing like that.

00:46:32.960 So they're going

00:46:33.340 into business,

00:46:33.760 well-off,

00:46:34.680 or at least

00:46:35.180 comfortable financially,

00:46:36.960 going into business

00:46:38.000 for themselves

00:46:39.020 as hookers. 0.98

00:46:44.020 And the more

00:46:44.880 that the porn industry

00:46:46.560 becomes that,

00:46:47.860 the harder it is

00:46:48.840 to make that

00:46:49.440 particular case.

00:46:50.280 which is why

00:46:53.460 you have to have

00:46:53.960 the deeper point,

00:46:55.100 which I think

00:46:56.180 that conservatives

00:46:56.900 have,

00:46:57.440 but a lot

00:46:58.780 of the other people

00:46:59.340 who are sort of

00:47:00.500 aligning themselves

00:47:01.180 with us

00:47:01.700 don't have.

00:47:03.720 We're all feeling it.

00:47:04.880 Costs are rising

00:47:05.940 on everything,

00:47:06.760 gas,

00:47:07.260 groceries,

00:47:07.760 home repairs.

00:47:08.800 And if you're

00:47:09.140 a homeowner,

00:47:09.880 you've probably thought,

00:47:11.060 should I call

00:47:11.460 American Financing

00:47:12.220 to refinance

00:47:13.120 and pay off

00:47:13.700 this credit card debt?

00:47:15.280 Then you second-guess

00:47:15.960 yourself because of

00:47:16.660 that low mortgage rate

00:47:17.540 that you currently have.

00:47:18.440 Well, listen,

00:47:18.980 that low rate,

00:47:19.700 it's not saving you

00:47:20.640 if you're drowning

00:47:21.280 in credit card interest

00:47:22.220 at 25% or more.

00:47:24.000 That's the math

00:47:24.600 that no one wants

00:47:25.140 to face,

00:47:26.220 but it's costing you

00:47:27.040 thousands of dollars.

00:47:27.940 Here's the truth.

00:47:28.760 If you're only making

00:47:29.600 minimum payments,

00:47:30.560 that debt will follow

00:47:31.660 you for years.

00:47:32.500 That's why people

00:47:32.880 are calling

00:47:33.240 American Financing

00:47:34.200 because they're

00:47:34.760 saving customers

00:47:35.440 an average of $800

00:47:36.440 a month by using

00:47:37.620 their equity to

00:47:38.520 finally break free

00:47:39.660 from credit card debt.

00:47:41.060 You owe it to your

00:47:41.480 family to see

00:47:42.400 what's possible.

00:47:46.880 every month.

00:47:47.800 And if you start today,

00:48:34.280 And let's get to

00:48:34.700 our daily cancellation.

00:48:35.380 We began the show

00:48:42.520 by talking about

00:48:43.220 the Muslim socialist

00:48:44.360 who's just won

00:48:45.840 the Democrat primary

00:48:47.120 to become the next

00:48:48.600 mayor of New York City,

00:48:49.980 ran on a platform

00:48:50.660 of legalized theft,

00:48:52.040 as all socialists do.

00:48:53.540 The wealthiest New Yorkers

00:48:54.680 will be forced to pay

00:48:55.560 for everybody else's

00:48:56.320 groceries and rent

00:48:57.160 and sex changes

00:48:57.920 right up until the moment

00:48:59.400 that those wealthy

00:49:00.340 New Yorkers leave

00:49:01.200 and the city collapses.

00:49:02.920 And we've become

00:49:03.340 so familiar with this kind

00:49:04.320 of crass transactional politics

00:49:06.020 where con artists

00:49:06.720 are elected to public office

00:49:07.940 simply by promising

00:49:08.720 to give away

00:49:09.220 other people's money.

00:49:10.660 It's worth highlighting

00:49:11.360 the rare moments

00:49:12.140 when the opposite happens.

00:49:14.320 Believe it or not,

00:49:15.280 indeed, there are occasions

00:49:16.320 in which elected officials

00:49:17.280 in the United States

00:49:17.860 tell people to take

00:49:18.640 some responsibility

00:49:19.140 for their lives

00:49:19.760 instead of becoming

00:49:20.440 entirely dependent

00:49:21.140 on handouts from taxpayers.

00:49:23.120 It sounds like

00:49:23.480 absurdist fiction

00:49:24.220 as cities like New York

00:49:25.120 descend into third world status,

00:49:26.540 but contrary to all expectations,

00:49:28.340 sometimes there is

00:49:29.020 accountability in this country.

00:49:30.300 And at the moment,

00:49:31.640 the tens of millions

00:49:32.260 of Americans

00:49:32.740 who took out student loans

00:49:33.920 to go to college

00:49:34.700 are coming to this realization

00:49:36.680 the hard way.

00:49:37.720 After years of extensions

00:49:38.840 and promises

00:49:39.580 that their loans

00:49:40.240 would be forgiven,

00:49:41.160 meaning paid by taxpayers,

00:49:43.020 the Trump administration

00:49:43.660 is starting to collect.

00:49:46.020 They're garnishing wages

00:49:47.120 and destroying the credit scores

00:49:48.460 of anyone who refuses to pay.

00:49:49.940 This is a major victory

00:49:51.780 for the rule of law

00:49:52.740 in this country,

00:49:53.300 as we'll discuss in a second.

00:49:54.500 Here's the Wall Street Journal,

00:49:55.480 quote,

00:49:55.660 Nearly 2 million student loan borrowers

00:49:58.780 are at risk of having

00:49:59.500 their wages garnished

00:50:00.520 this summer.

00:50:01.540 Roughly 6 million

00:50:02.340 federal student loan borrowers

00:50:03.980 are 90 days or more

00:50:05.140 passed through

00:50:05.680 after a pandemic era

00:50:06.720 reprieve ended,

00:50:07.480 according to TransUnion.

00:50:09.200 The credit reporting company

00:50:10.820 estimates that about

00:50:11.660 a third of them

00:50:12.340 of nearly 2 million borrowers

00:50:13.840 or nearly 2 million borrowers

00:50:15.080 could move into default

00:50:16.260 in July

00:50:16.700 and start having their pay docked

00:50:18.040 by the government.

00:50:18.720 An additional 1 million borrowers

00:50:20.020 are on track

00:50:20.780 to default by August,

00:50:22.340 followed by another

00:50:22.880 2 million in September.

00:50:24.000 The Education Department

00:50:25.020 restarted collections

00:50:25.800 on defaulted student loans

00:50:27.060 in May,

00:50:27.700 something it hadn't done

00:50:28.860 since before the pandemic.

00:50:30.360 The Department sent notices

00:50:31.160 to borrowers

00:50:31.780 saying their tax refunds

00:50:33.320 and federal benefits

00:50:34.200 could be withheld

00:50:34.900 starting in June

00:50:35.640 if they don't take steps

00:50:36.800 to resume payments

00:50:37.500 until past due payments

00:50:39.260 are paid in full

00:50:40.120 or the default status

00:50:41.160 of resolved borrowers

00:50:41.980 could see up to 15%

00:50:43.520 of the wages

00:50:43.860 automatically deducted

00:50:45.100 from their paychecks,

00:50:45.960 close quote.

00:50:48.380 Now, in order for contracts

00:50:50.060 and loans to have any meaning,

00:50:51.840 this is what needs to happen.

00:50:53.340 People who borrow money

00:50:54.440 after explicitly promising

00:50:55.680 to repay that money

00:50:56.700 shouldn't have any choice

00:50:59.200 in the matter.

00:51:00.200 They have to pay back

00:51:01.180 their debts with interest.

00:51:03.160 It doesn't matter

00:51:03.960 what sob story

00:51:04.520 you come up with.

00:51:05.200 People who make

00:51:05.760 legally binding promises

00:51:06.840 should be forced

00:51:07.480 to keep those promises

00:51:08.300 or else suffer

00:51:09.440 the consequences.

00:51:11.220 If we suspend

00:51:12.480 that system,

00:51:13.740 right,

00:51:14.720 as we have done,

00:51:16.580 three things happen.

00:51:18.040 None of them are good.

00:51:19.440 First,

00:51:20.020 private loans

00:51:20.600 become much harder

00:51:21.440 to obtain

00:51:21.920 because no one's

00:51:22.640 going to lend anyone

00:51:23.640 with a remotely

00:51:24.360 suspicious credit profile.

00:51:26.440 People will have

00:51:27.180 much more difficulty

00:51:28.220 acquiring cars,

00:51:29.360 homes,

00:51:29.680 and so on.

00:51:31.480 Secondly,

00:51:32.560 federally funded loans

00:51:33.460 will become

00:51:33.880 yet another

00:51:34.700 unsustainable form

00:51:35.600 of welfare

00:51:35.980 that we can't afford.

00:51:36.880 And third,

00:51:38.000 tuition will continue

00:51:38.720 to increase

00:51:39.220 across the board

00:51:39.860 since schools

00:51:40.440 might as well draw

00:51:41.260 whatever they can

00:51:41.940 from the treasury.

00:51:43.920 So,

00:51:44.840 it just makes

00:51:46.060 the problem worse.

00:51:47.360 and in the process

00:51:49.760 that makes

00:51:50.140 higher education

00:51:50.840 even more

00:51:51.420 unaffordable.

00:51:53.440 But there's

00:51:54.220 another reason

00:51:54.640 to support

00:51:55.080 the Trump

00:51:55.480 administration's

00:51:56.100 collection efforts

00:51:56.780 which is that

00:51:57.380 it will punish

00:51:58.220 some of the

00:51:59.020 absolute worst

00:51:59.600 people in this

00:52:00.100 country

00:52:00.300 in a very

00:52:00.620 direct and

00:52:01.180 tangible way.

00:52:02.560 You take a look

00:52:03.060 at social media

00:52:03.680 and see how

00:52:04.400 people are

00:52:04.940 talking about

00:52:06.120 their student

00:52:06.540 loans right now.

00:52:07.800 It turns out

00:52:08.560 that once you

00:52:09.200 give people

00:52:09.640 an extension,

00:52:10.800 they want to

00:52:11.480 make that extension

00:52:12.060 permanent.

00:52:12.900 They start

00:52:13.320 concocting ways

00:52:14.100 to get out

00:52:14.600 of their

00:52:14.760 obligations

00:52:15.280 now that

00:52:16.340 they sense

00:52:17.220 weakness

00:52:17.620 on the part

00:52:18.040 of the debt

00:52:18.340 collectors,

00:52:18.740 the government

00:52:19.100 in this case.

00:52:20.460 Who could

00:52:20.740 have imagined

00:52:21.100 that?

00:52:21.420 It's almost

00:52:21.920 as if you

00:52:22.600 want an

00:52:22.940 orderly

00:52:23.340 functioning

00:52:23.700 society,

00:52:24.880 you can't

00:52:25.600 grant exceptions.

00:52:26.240 You have to

00:52:26.480 hold people

00:52:26.960 to their

00:52:27.300 promises.

00:52:28.680 Otherwise,

00:52:29.100 you get

00:52:29.300 videos like

00:52:29.920 this.

00:52:30.380 Watch.

00:52:31.340 So,

00:52:31.780 as of today,

00:52:32.800 student loans

00:52:33.420 that are in

00:52:33.820 default have

00:52:35.060 basically went

00:52:35.900 into collections

00:52:36.800 and wage

00:52:37.880 garnishments

00:52:38.580 are into

00:52:39.400 effect.

00:52:40.560 The question

00:52:40.980 is,

00:52:41.320 can you

00:52:41.740 dispute

00:52:42.140 these

00:52:42.380 collections?

00:52:43.180 Yes,

00:52:43.500 you can,

00:52:44.060 and it

00:52:44.280 is your

00:52:44.540 right,

00:52:44.800 and I'm

00:52:45.000 going to

00:52:45.140 tell you

00:52:45.500 what to

00:52:45.880 ask for.

00:52:46.520 The first

00:52:46.880 thing you're

00:52:47.120 going to

00:52:47.220 ask for

00:52:47.560 is the

00:52:47.860 full chain

00:52:48.460 of custody

00:52:49.040 with

00:52:49.840 assignment

00:52:50.580 agreements.

00:52:51.800 The second

00:52:52.180 thing you're

00:52:52.580 going to

00:52:52.680 ask for

00:52:53.080 is the

00:52:53.400 original

00:52:53.920 master

00:52:54.700 promissory

00:52:55.540 note

00:52:56.080 with your

00:52:57.060 wet

00:52:57.280 signature

00:52:57.720 or

00:52:58.700 virtual logs.

00:53:00.260 The third

00:53:00.600 thing you're

00:53:00.860 going to

00:53:00.980 ask for

00:53:01.380 is the

00:53:01.740 breakdown

00:53:02.100 of

00:53:02.380 itemized

00:53:02.880 charges

00:53:03.320 with

00:53:03.960 evidence

00:53:04.440 of

00:53:04.760 accrual.

00:53:05.660 The good

00:53:05.940 news is,

00:53:06.500 I have a

00:53:06.820 dispute

00:53:07.140 letter

00:53:07.460 where you

00:53:08.120 could actually

00:53:08.660 escalate

00:53:09.260 with the

00:53:09.640 CFPB

00:53:10.180 as well.

00:53:11.040 I made

00:53:11.400 this very

00:53:11.740 simple for

00:53:12.300 everyone.

00:53:12.760 If you

00:53:12.940 go to

00:53:13.140 the link

00:53:13.460 in my

00:53:13.840 profile,

00:53:14.660 you're

00:53:14.860 going to

00:53:15.000 see where

00:53:15.360 it says

00:53:15.860 buy me

00:53:16.460 a coffee.

00:53:17.180 The dispute

00:53:17.620 letter is

00:53:17.980 going to

00:53:18.100 be right

00:53:18.420 there for

00:53:18.780 you to

00:53:19.040 use.

00:53:19.620 Or I

00:53:20.020 could

00:53:20.160 customize

00:53:20.540 it for

00:53:21.180 you myself.

00:53:22.300 You're

00:53:22.520 going to

00:53:22.640 see where

00:53:22.920 it says

00:53:23.340 upload

00:53:23.880 your

00:53:24.080 credit

00:53:24.280 report

00:53:24.740 and I

00:53:25.040 will

00:53:25.160 customize

00:53:25.580 your

00:53:25.920 dispute

00:53:26.220 letters

00:53:26.560 for you.

00:53:27.480 He's

00:53:27.940 being a

00:53:28.200 little coy

00:53:28.660 but the

00:53:29.020 idea is

00:53:29.620 fairly

00:53:30.000 clear.

00:53:30.600 He's

00:53:30.780 encouraging

00:53:31.120 people to

00:53:31.680 bombard

00:53:32.100 the

00:53:32.280 federal

00:53:32.480 government

00:53:32.780 with

00:53:32.980 paperwork

00:53:33.360 requests

00:53:33.920 in the

00:53:34.120 hopes

00:53:34.280 that the

00:53:41.740 student

00:53:41.900 loans.

00:53:42.180 That's

00:53:42.320 very

00:53:42.460 clear from

00:53:42.820 the

00:53:42.960 comments

00:53:43.260 on this

00:53:43.740 video.

00:53:44.600 They're

00:53:44.920 just

00:53:45.080 looking

00:53:45.320 to

00:53:45.520 delay

00:53:45.760 as

00:53:45.920 much

00:53:46.060 as

00:53:46.180 possible.

00:53:47.500 Other

00:53:47.860 videos

00:53:48.300 that are

00:53:49.000 also

00:53:49.400 popular

00:53:49.740 make

00:53:49.980 this

00:53:50.140 tactic

00:53:50.460 really

00:53:50.720 explicit.

00:53:51.220 Here's

00:53:51.360 one of

00:53:51.580 them.

00:53:52.440 I was

00:53:52.880 curious

00:53:53.340 what

00:53:53.660 was

00:53:53.880 happening

00:53:54.340 with

00:53:54.920 that

00:53:55.100 student

00:53:55.460 loan

00:53:55.940 situation

00:53:56.900 that

00:53:57.140 on

00:53:57.300 May

00:53:57.560 5th

00:53:57.880 student

00:53:58.180 loans

00:53:58.460 after

00:53:58.660 five

00:53:59.120 years

00:53:59.340 since

00:53:59.540 COVID

00:53:59.880 people

00:54:00.880 are

00:54:01.040 going

00:54:01.120 to

00:54:01.140 be

00:54:01.260 put

00:54:01.540 sent

00:54:02.480 to

00:54:02.620 collections

00:54:02.960 that

00:54:03.100 they

00:54:03.180 don't

00:54:03.340 start

00:54:03.520 paying

00:54:03.900 as

00:54:04.140 May

00:54:04.540 5th.

00:54:04.840 Well

00:54:05.000 here's

00:54:05.180 an

00:54:05.260 update

00:54:05.440 to

00:54:05.600 that.

00:54:06.420 So

00:54:06.520 here's

00:54:06.860 what

00:54:07.020 the

00:54:07.180 Associated

00:54:07.760 Press

00:54:08.320 is

00:54:09.100 saying

00:54:09.780 is

00:54:09.960 that

00:54:10.160 millions

00:54:10.600 of

00:54:10.820 Americans

00:54:11.160 have

00:54:11.360 already

00:54:11.520 seen

00:54:11.800 their

00:54:11.960 credit

00:54:12.200 scores

00:54:12.720 be

00:54:13.220 downgraded

00:54:13.780 because

00:54:14.020 of

00:54:14.220 their

00:54:14.400 default

00:54:15.000 in

00:54:15.240 their

00:54:15.360 loan

00:54:15.560 status.

00:54:16.320 Wage

00:54:16.740 garnishments

00:54:17.520 will

00:54:17.860 start

00:54:18.320 at

00:54:18.520 the

00:54:18.640 end

00:54:18.760 of

00:54:18.860 this

00:54:19.040 summer.

00:54:19.640 They

00:54:19.740 said

00:54:19.960 90

00:54:20.260 days

00:54:20.560 after

00:54:20.780 May

00:54:20.980 5th

00:54:21.280 is

00:54:21.420 when

00:54:21.540 that

00:54:21.660 will

00:54:21.760 officially

00:54:22.440 start

00:54:24.480 week

00:54:24.680 of

00:54:24.800 August

00:54:25.080 so

00:54:25.360 that's

00:54:25.960 coming.

00:54:26.580 There's

00:54:26.760 already

00:54:26.960 been

00:54:27.140 reports

00:54:27.560 of

00:54:27.740 people

00:54:27.940 on

00:54:28.100 social

00:54:28.340 media

00:54:28.600 saying

00:54:29.000 that

00:54:29.240 their

00:54:29.580 tax

00:54:30.260 refund

00:54:30.760 is

00:54:30.980 being

00:54:31.140 withheld

00:54:31.560 because

00:54:31.920 of

00:54:32.100 this.

00:54:32.460 Oh

00:54:32.620 what

00:54:33.080 if

00:54:33.580 hypothetically

00:54:34.520 with

00:54:35.000 the

00:54:35.260 crazy

00:54:35.880 success

00:54:36.540 of

00:54:37.120 the

00:54:37.360 No

00:54:37.980 protest

00:54:38.460 what

00:54:39.320 if

00:54:39.520 we

00:54:39.640 were

00:54:39.780 able

00:54:40.000 to

00:54:40.200 get

00:54:40.380 like

00:54:40.620 a

00:54:41.440 student

00:54:42.460 loan

00:54:42.740 borrowers

00:54:43.240 together

00:54:43.700 to

00:54:44.200 start

00:54:44.420 contacting

00:54:45.080 these

00:54:45.320 agencies

00:54:45.800 these

00:54:46.120 agencies

00:54:46.560 that

00:54:46.840 have

00:54:46.960 been

00:54:47.280 defunded

00:54:48.680 staff

00:54:49.480 have

00:54:49.640 been

00:54:49.800 cut

00:54:50.160 and

00:54:50.980 are

00:54:51.480 currently

00:54:52.040 strained

00:54:53.340 for

00:54:53.540 resources

00:54:54.000 because

00:54:54.420 of

00:54:55.000 our

00:54:56.160 current

00:54:56.500 dictator

00:54:56.960 what

00:54:57.560 if

00:54:57.880 we

00:54:58.040 were

00:54:58.220 able

00:54:59.280 to

00:54:59.700 overwhelm

00:55:00.680 these

00:55:00.880 systems

00:55:01.320 would

00:55:01.640 we

00:55:01.820 be

00:55:02.000 able

00:55:02.240 to

00:55:02.740 delay

00:55:03.840 them

00:55:04.760 from

00:55:05.180 reporting

00:55:05.940 student

00:55:06.520 loan

00:55:06.820 borrowers

00:55:07.460 to

00:55:07.760 collections

00:55:08.520 could

00:55:08.840 that

00:55:09.000 be

00:55:09.140 done

00:55:09.480 could

00:55:09.840 we

00:55:09.960 do

00:55:10.140 that

00:55:10.520 think

00:55:11.540 about

00:55:11.680 the

00:55:11.800 psychology

00:55:12.360 at play

00:55:12.780 in a

00:55:12.960 video

00:55:13.160 like

00:55:13.400 this

00:55:13.600 leftists

00:55:13.960 recognize

00:55:14.420 that

00:55:14.600 the

00:55:14.720 federal

00:55:14.900 bureaucracy

00:55:15.300 is one

00:55:15.600 of their

00:55:15.760 most

00:55:15.960 important

00:55:16.460 assets

00:55:17.000 the

00:55:17.920 the

00:55:18.280 corruption

00:55:19.080 and

00:55:19.420 manufactured

00:55:20.120 inefficacy

00:55:20.820 gives

00:55:21.140 them

00:55:21.340 enormous

00:55:21.820 power

00:55:22.200 it's

00:55:23.240 been

00:55:23.360 a norm

00:55:23.680 for

00:55:23.840 generations

00:55:24.300 and

00:55:24.540 now

00:55:24.780 that

00:55:24.960 the

00:55:25.060 Trump

00:55:25.200 administration

00:55:25.680 unlike

00:55:25.920 pretty much

00:55:26.300 every other

00:55:26.640 administration

00:55:27.980 in recent

00:55:28.760 history

00:55:29.100 has gutted

00:55:30.760 the

00:55:30.900 bureaucracy

00:55:31.360 the left

00:55:32.820 still hasn't

00:55:33.360 moved on

00:55:33.820 they still

00:55:35.240 think in

00:55:35.620 terms of

00:55:36.060 how the

00:55:36.720 bureaucracy

00:55:37.220 or lack

00:55:37.840 thereof

00:55:38.300 can help

00:55:39.340 them cheat

00:55:39.740 the system

00:55:40.180 so they're

00:55:41.340 openly talking

00:55:41.960 about flooding

00:55:42.540 the federal

00:55:42.880 government

00:55:43.200 with fraudulent

00:55:44.140 documentation

00:55:44.660 all to

00:55:45.220 avoid paying

00:55:45.860 back debts

00:55:46.460 that they

00:55:47.460 agreed to pay

00:55:48.040 back a long

00:55:48.500 time ago

00:55:48.940 now notice

00:55:50.580 there's no

00:55:50.900 gratitude

00:55:51.320 here

00:55:51.580 there's no

00:55:51.880 sense

00:55:52.220 of

00:55:52.360 appreciation

00:55:52.960 for the

00:55:53.400 fact

00:55:53.620 that

00:55:53.880 their

00:55:54.820 repayments

00:55:55.540 were

00:55:55.780 frozen

00:55:57.400 for half

00:55:58.500 a decade

00:55:58.900 they don't

00:55:59.500 care about

00:55:59.860 that

00:56:00.160 all they're

00:56:01.900 thinking about

00:56:02.340 is how to

00:56:02.700 steal some

00:56:03.200 more money

00:56:03.600 there's never

00:56:04.900 any sense

00:56:05.300 of personal

00:56:05.740 responsibility

00:56:06.280 in any

00:56:06.640 context

00:56:07.060 in every

00:56:08.040 single case

00:56:08.480 the moment

00:56:08.860 you give

00:56:09.180 a leftist

00:56:09.680 something

00:56:10.100 free

00:56:10.480 they will

00:56:10.820 demand

00:56:11.140 even more

00:56:11.660 free

00:56:11.900 stuff

00:56:12.160 and

00:56:12.380 they won't

00:56:13.120 stop

00:56:13.520 until you

00:56:13.900 force them

00:56:14.300 to stop

00:56:14.680 or until

00:56:16.300 the entire

00:56:16.800 economy

00:56:17.180 is destroyed

00:56:17.620 it's an

00:56:17.940 ironclad

00:56:18.440 rule

00:56:18.700 it's also

00:56:19.680 the lesson

00:56:20.080 of the

00:56:20.400 great

00:56:20.700 prophetic

00:56:21.140 text

00:56:21.580 called

00:56:22.000 if you

00:56:22.420 give a

00:56:22.660 mouse

00:56:22.800 a

00:56:22.940 cookie

00:56:23.140 now

00:56:24.460 that

00:56:24.600 said

00:56:24.840 sure

00:56:25.320 it's

00:56:25.740 reasonable

00:56:26.380 to have

00:56:27.560 some

00:56:27.840 sympathy

00:56:28.160 for

00:56:28.360 student

00:56:28.580 loan

00:56:28.780 borrowers

00:56:29.220 I've

00:56:29.560 always

00:56:30.340 agreed

00:56:31.000 with

00:56:31.300 their

00:56:31.420 central

00:56:31.840 complaint

00:56:32.340 actually

00:56:32.820 which

00:56:34.400 is that

00:56:34.720 they got

00:56:35.060 ripped

00:56:35.280 off

00:56:35.640 and

00:56:36.020 they

00:56:36.180 were

00:56:36.340 sold

00:56:36.620 an

00:56:36.740 education

00:56:37.180 that

00:56:37.400 isn't

00:56:37.680 worth

00:56:37.920 nearly

00:56:38.220 as

00:56:38.360 much

00:56:38.520 as

00:56:38.640 they

00:56:38.740 paid

00:56:38.940 for

00:56:39.100 it

00:56:39.180 in

00:56:39.240 fact

00:56:39.400 in

00:56:39.500 many

00:56:39.600 cases

00:56:39.840 it's

00:56:40.020 worth

00:56:40.200 nothing

00:56:40.560 at

00:56:40.700 all

00:56:40.920 anyone

00:56:42.640 who's

00:56:42.940 been

00:56:43.200 paying

00:56:48.700 the

00:56:50.580 consequences

00:56:51.160 of

00:56:51.380 their

00:56:51.460 decision

00:56:51.840 but

00:56:53.360 loan

00:56:53.820 forgiveness

00:56:54.460 was

00:56:54.900 never

00:56:55.140 the

00:56:55.320 solution

00:56:55.740 to

00:56:56.020 that

00:56:56.220 problem

00:56:56.520 it

00:56:56.660 again

00:56:57.020 only

00:56:57.480 makes

00:56:57.840 the

00:56:58.000 problem

00:56:58.280 worse

00:56:58.640 it's

00:57:00.720 a

00:57:00.860 sure

00:57:01.140 fire

00:57:01.440 way

00:57:01.740 to

00:57:01.940 make

00:57:02.200 the

00:57:02.480 problem

00:57:02.720 much

00:57:03.000 worse

00:57:03.200 in

00:57:03.320 every

00:57:03.700 respect

00:57:04.100 it

00:57:05.020 creates

00:57:05.260 an

00:57:05.400 incentive

00:57:05.720 for

00:57:05.920 colleges

00:57:06.200 to

00:57:06.460 charge

00:57:06.840 more

00:57:07.280 while

00:57:08.660 also

00:57:08.840 encouraging

00:57:09.400 whiny 0.62

00:57:09.740 leftists

00:57:10.220 to

00:57:10.400 scam

00:57:10.660 the

00:57:10.800 federal

00:57:11.020 government

00:57:11.380 the

00:57:12.060 only

00:57:12.380 workable

00:57:12.800 solution

00:57:13.200 which

00:57:13.380 the

00:57:13.500 Trump

00:57:13.640 administration

00:57:13.980 is

00:57:14.200 now

00:57:14.360 pursuing

00:57:14.660 is

00:57:15.580 to

00:57:16.120 these

00:57:16.320 borrowers

00:57:16.820 no matter

00:57:18.700 may

00:57:18.860 be

00:57:19.080 to

00:57:19.540 pay

00:57:19.720 their

00:57:19.900 debts

00:57:20.160 that's

00:57:22.180 how

00:57:22.240 you

00:57:22.360 save

00:57:22.560 the

00:57:22.660 next

00:57:22.800 generation

00:57:23.200 from

00:57:23.400 committing

00:57:23.700 to

00:57:24.360 lifetime

00:57:24.660 of

00:57:32.360 inhumane

00:57:33.560 is

00:57:33.740 actually

00:57:34.160 the

00:57:34.460 most
