Donald Trump takes over Washington, D.C. to put a stop to rampant crime and violence. The left and the media are big fans of violent crime, so naturally they are upset by this development. Also, is it true the Supreme Court is about to overturn gay marriage? No, it isn t, but it should be, and a heavily Botoxed middle-aged female podcaster declares that white Trump supporters are no longer allowed to eat Mexican food. We ll talk about all that and more today on The Matt Welch Show.
00:03:26.200Black people are more likely to be stopped, searched, questioned, arrested, and harmed encounters
00:03:31.200with the law. When we add the president of federal agents or the National Guard to deadly life in
00:03:36.200these neighborhoods, the burden can multiply. Not by making harm more rare, but making it more
00:03:42.200visible and more likely to escalate. So be clear, this has been going on. But as you bring more
00:03:48.200policemen, it's going to escalate. And as the executive director of Hearst Rider Streams, I want
00:03:53.200to name white people's civil rights have never been in danger because they are white. The white civil
00:04:01.200rights represents the desire from the Jim Crow. Full stop.
00:04:05.200Well, at the very least, you know, looking desperately for silver lining, you have to be grateful that,
00:04:10.200for the most part, humans are not employed to do closed captioning anymore. That's one job that
00:04:16.200mercifully has been eliminated by the wonders of automation. And we should all be able to agree that,
00:04:22.200in the grand scheme of things, it's much better and more dignified to be employed and to be
00:04:26.200unemployed and homeless than to be forced to transcribe complete gibberish like what we just heard
00:04:32.200there. As best as I can tell, without the benefit of subtitles, this person appears to believe that
00:04:38.200Donald Trump is going to deport the black residents of Washington, D.C., although she doesn't explain her
00:04:44.200reasoning there. She also appears concerned that policemen are going to escalate their violence against
00:04:51.200the black community. And then to cap it all off, she says that white people have never had their civil
00:04:56.200rights violated. She's adamant that Mayor Muriel Bowser, who has overseen the continued decay of
00:05:02.200D.C. over the past 10 years, should remain in charge of the district's police force.
00:05:06.200Now, to be clear, these are not cheap shots I'm making here. It's actually very relevant to point out that
00:05:12.200black activists in D.C. have somehow selected a spokesperson who can barely speak English.
00:05:18.200All by itself, that's indicative of a major fundamental problem. It's not just the Pan-African hats and flags
00:05:25.200flying around. It's not just the stupidity of the underlying arguments. The simple fact that this person
00:05:31.200managed to become a spokesperson in any context is disqualifying for the entire position. People who
00:05:38.200cannot speak cannot govern, period. And that really should be the end of the discussion.
00:05:43.200But it gets even worse if you try to do your best to decipher whatever this person was saying.
00:05:49.200The best case scenario is that she's admitting that a lot of illegal aliens live in the nation's capital.
00:05:55.200That's the only reason they'd have to go wherever the alligators live, otherwise known as Trump's
00:06:00.200alligator Alcatraz facility in Florida. But she makes the point that black people are more likely to be
00:06:05.200stopped, searched, arrested and harmed during police encounters. And that's absolutely true.
00:06:10.200Of course, it's true precisely because black suspects are overwhelmingly more likely than any other demographic
00:06:15.200in the entire world to commit crimes that merit a police detention, search, arrest and use of force.
00:06:21.200But this woman decided to just leave those inconvenient details out.
00:06:25.200Maybe they were hard to pronounce. Who knows?
00:06:28.200Either way, it's notable that this woman doesn't spend any amount of time talking about the victims
00:06:33.200of criminal violence in the nation's capital, which, by the way, affects a lot of black people.
00:06:39.200There's, you know, a lot of a lot of that tactic going around. In fact, here's a remarkable paragraph
00:06:44.200from The Washington Post, for example. This ran the other day and I had to verify that it was true
00:06:49.200because it seemed too good to be real. But it's it is real. So here it is.
00:06:54.200The Washington Post and their quest to portray Donald Trump as a fascist interviewed a D.C. resident
00:07:00.200following a series of violent attacks in his neighborhood. And this was the papers report on what that resident told the paper.
00:07:09.200And again, I checked it. This is actually real. Quote.
00:07:14.200This is a safe city, but overhearing and witnessing gang threats and then watching the camera footage of thuggery is disturbing,
00:07:21.200said one resident speaking on the condition of anonymity over concerns of personal safety.
00:07:26.200The crowd of teens, he said, were roaming the street and appeared to be checked to checking for unlocked cars and things to steal.
00:07:33.200The language Trump uses to describe D.C. is wrong, he said.
00:07:36.200But clearly there is something bad going on that needs to stop.
00:07:39.200Yes, it is a safe city, says a resident who is speaking on condition of anonymity over concerns of personal safety.
00:07:49.200And then he wags his finger at Trump for, I don't know, using some mean words, I guess.
00:07:56.200I mean, it's so absurdly unconvincing and contradictory that it's indistinguishable from, you know, a satire.
00:08:03.200As leftists huddle in their panic rooms and use aliases to avoid getting executed by gangs,
00:08:08.200they're informing the Washington Post that Donald Trump is, in fact, really racist for trying to enforce the law in the nation's capital.
00:08:16.200And he doesn't need to enforce it. We don't need this because everything's fine. Everyone's safe.
00:08:21.200Except for the roaming gangs that are outside of my window right now, as you know, I'm saying all this.
00:08:27.200Not outside of my window here, but outside the window of the guy who said that again, they discredit themselves just just by opening their mouths over the New York Times.
00:08:35.200Someone named Peter Baker weighed in with this insight, quote, citing a non-existent crime crisis, non-existent.
00:08:43.200Trump plans to take over the Washington, D.C. police and put troops in the streets of the nation's capital.
00:08:48.200Contrary to his claims, violent crime in D.C. is at a 30 year low.
00:08:52.200And then there was this post from MSNBC's intelligence cutout, Ken Delanian, quote,
00:08:58.200President Trump announces he has seized and controlled D.C.'s police forces.
00:09:01.200He rolls out a series of false and misleading claims about crime in the city, which is actually at historic lows.
00:09:08.200Now, neither of these posts are true. For starters, you can pull up the D.C. crime statistics online and see immediately that it's false.
00:09:18.200We'll throw some of those up on the screen right now so you can see for yourself.
00:09:21.200And as you can see, homicides are much higher than they were just a few years ago.
00:09:26.200But before we explore this claim further, it's important to mention that CNN got in on the act, too.
00:09:31.200They aired some live footage of Trump delivering his press conference on the federal takeover of D.C.'s police force.
00:09:37.200But as they did so, they put some statistics on the screen right next to him.
00:09:41.200Watch this. The murder rate in Washington today is higher than that of Bogota, Colombia, Mexico City.
00:09:49.200Some of the places that you hear about as being the worst places on Earth, much higher.
00:09:56.200This is much higher. The number of car thefts has doubled over the past five years.
00:10:02.200Five years and the number of carjackings has more than tripled murders in 2023 reached the highest rate probably ever.
00:10:11.200They say 25 years, but they don't know what that means because it just goes back 25 years. Can't be worse.
00:10:17.200Now, in case you couldn't see it on the audio podcast, CNN informed its viewers that, in fact, the homicide rate in D.C. dropped by 12 percent from 2024 to 2025.
00:10:27.200They also say that violent crime dropped 35 percent from 23 to 24, 26 percent from 24 to 25.
00:10:33.200And therefore, we're meant to conclude that D.C. is a perfectly functioning city and Trump is engaging in some kind of totalitarian overreach.
00:10:41.200Now, there are two major problems with this line of argument. First of all, just thinking logically here, you know, imagine your kid comes home one semester with all F's on his report card.
00:10:53.200If they let kids get F's anymore, which they don't. But like, just go with me on the thought experiment.
00:10:58.200And and then you tell him that he needs to get his act together and he needs to improve his grades because this is unacceptable.
00:11:04.200And the next semester he comes back with, you know, a lot of F's, but a few D's.
00:11:09.200Now, in that scenario, most likely you would not congratulate him on his stunning improvement.
00:11:16.200You recognize that he still desperately needs some kind of urgent intervention.
00:11:20.200So he went from really, really bad to really bad.
00:11:26.200But it's still really bad. So this whole idea of using relative statistics rather than raw numbers is a pretty massive tell.
00:11:34.200But actually, it's even worse than that.
00:11:36.200It turns out that, as you may have guessed, this massive drop in crime numbers in D.C. is probably just fake.
00:11:44.200This is reporting from NBC's Washington Bureau just a month ago. Watch.
00:11:48.200A D.C. police commander is under investigation for allegedly making changes to crime statistics in his district.
00:11:56.200Tonight, the police department confirms Michael Pulliam was placed on paid administrative leave in mid-May.
00:12:02.200Well, hi there. The D.C. police union is putting its allegations on the record tonight, claiming police supervisors in the department are manipulating crime data to make it appear violent crime has fallen considerably when compared to last year.
00:12:16.200As of today, according to the D.C. police website, crime is down 25 percent.
00:12:21.200A decrease the chairman of the police union calls preposterous.
00:12:25.200The union's allegations come as the former commander of the 3rd District stands accused of doing what the union says is being done day in and day out.
00:12:34.200That's Michael Pulliam standing with the chief of police at a recent news conference.
00:12:40.200At the time, he was the commander of the 3rd District, which patrols the neighborhoods of Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights.
00:12:47.200In early May, five law enforcement sources familiar with the investigation tell News 4, Pulliam was placed on administrative leave with pay and told he was under investigation for questionable changes to crime data.
00:12:59.200When our members respond to the scene of a felony offense where there is a victim reporting that a felony occurred, inevitably there will be a lieutenant or a captain that will show up on that scene and direct those members to take a report for a lesser offense.
00:13:15.200So instead of taking a report for a shooting or a stabbing or carjacking, they will order that officer to take a report for a theft or an injured person to the hospital or a felony assault, which is not the same type of classification.
00:13:29.200Greg Pemberton says the police department's command staff is focusing on two categories in order to get the numbers to fall.
00:13:36.200They are armed with a dangerous weapon, an injured person to the hospital.
00:13:41.200When management officials are directing officers to take reports for felony assault or if they're going back into police databases and changing offenses to felony assault, felony assault is not a category of crime that's listed on the department's daily crime stats.
00:13:56.200It's also not something that's a requirement of the FBI's uniform crime reporting program.
00:14:01.200So by changing criminal offenses from, for example, ADW bat or ADW gun to felony assault, that would that would avoid both the MPD and the FBI from reporting that as a part one or a felony offense.
00:14:18.200Now, in that report, as it goes on, there's there's the implication that the police official was only accused of faking these numbers because he filed some kind of complaint against his boss.
00:14:27.200So there's a lot of drama unfolding within this department, a lot of, you know, a lot of dysfunction.
00:14:33.200But in any event, we can conclude that these new crime statistics out of Washington are very dubious at best.
00:14:39.200The official narrative doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
00:14:42.200Frankly, crime does not typically plummet for no apparent reason.
00:14:47.200You know, there hasn't been any major crackdown on crime in the city up till now.
00:14:52.200It's been the same leadership with the same soft on crime policies.
00:14:56.200It would be totally inexplicable for the crime problem to just sort of magically solve itself.
00:15:01.200That's what we're supposed to believe.
00:15:03.200But when you got violent crime, if you just don't look at it and do nothing, it'll work itself out.
00:15:10.200Well, no, that's not how these things ever work like ever.
00:15:16.200Even on some mainstream networks, you'll find some anchors admitting that the official spin isn't very convincing.
00:15:24.200Here's a clip from ABC News the other day. For example, watch.
00:15:27.200We've been talking so much about the numbers.
00:15:29.200And, yeah, usually that's how you play devil's advocate is you talk about, oh, well, stats say crime is down.
00:15:34.200However, I can tell you firsthand here in downtown D.C. where we work right here around our bureau.
00:15:40.200I just in the past six months, you know, there were two people shot.
00:15:44.200One person died literally two blocks down here from the bureau.
00:15:47.200It was within the last two years that I actually was jumped walking just two blocks down from here.
00:15:54.200And then just this morning, one of my coworkers said her car was stolen a block away from the bureau.
00:16:01.200So we can talk about the numbers going down.
00:16:05.200But crime is happening every single day because we're all experiencing it firsthand while working and living down here.
00:16:13.200Now, this used to be a pretty uncontroversial point on the left.
00:16:16.200In fact, it was one of Joe Biden's big arguments back in the 1990s when he was advancing legislation to shut down, quote unquote, super predators in D.C., as he called them.
00:16:25.200Biden talked openly about how people worried about, you know, getting carjacked and shot in the city.
00:16:31.200Driving home, my staff who lives here in the hill reminded me, don't stop at a stoplight until I'm out of town.
00:16:39.200If I see a red light late at night, since there's very little traffic, slow up at the other block.
00:16:45.200So I never come to a full stop except in the middle of the block because of carjackings stopping the light.
00:16:53.200People standing in a corner walking up with a gun.
00:16:56.200Well, not much has changed in the last 30 years.
00:16:59.200And if you look around various left wing media outlets over the past year, you'll find that there have been many, many firsthand observations making the same point.
00:17:06.200The Atlantic, for instance, ran a couple of articles about the rampant carjacking that takes place in D.C. these days.
00:17:12.200The authorities never punish the criminals and the criminals know that.
00:17:16.200One of those articles followed a lengthy police pursuit of a stolen Cadillac Escalade involving a police helicopter with infrared imaging, multiple undercover units, spike strips, several marked units.
00:17:29.200And at one point in the pursuit, the officers realized that there's a pivotal moment coming up, quote,
00:17:34.200If the SUV turned left, staying in Maryland, the detectives could chase it.
00:17:38.200But if it slipped across the D.C. line, the officers would have a much harder time getting permission to chase it.
00:17:42.200This, too, was an outgrowth of the changing politics of policing over the past decade.
00:17:46.200Communities all over the country have placed new restraints on police departments ability to aggressively pursue criminals.
00:17:52.200There were good reasons for these reforms.
00:17:54.200Tragic examples of police overreach and outright abuse, especially in predominantly black neighborhoods, were common.
00:17:59.200But police say this sudden overhaul had serious unintended consequences.
00:18:02.200More murders, more carjackings and more violent crime and other sorts.
00:18:06.200Most of them in the very communities that the police reform had ostensibly been aimed at protecting.
00:18:11.200Yes, according to the leftists at The Atlantic, there were good reasons for laws that restrict the ability of police officers to do their jobs.
00:18:19.200And it's shocking, they say, that these laws had serious unintended consequences, such as destroying law and order in the nation's capital.
00:18:26.200But of course, the consequences were neither unpredictable nor unintended.
00:18:32.200When you don't allow police officers to do their jobs, criminals commit more crimes.
00:18:38.200When you don't punish criminals for committing crimes, they commit more of them.
00:18:42.200That's especially true when the crimes are never punished, which is which is the case in Washington.
00:18:46.200You know, at the end of the pursuit involving the Escalade, the driver was arrested and charged with about a dozen felonies.
00:18:52.200He destroyed the car, damaged a lot of property along the way.
00:18:55.200But in just a few hours, he was released from a juvenile detention center and sent back out onto the streets.
00:19:02.200Most likely to go commit more crimes because that's how this stuff always goes.
00:19:06.200And because carjackers suffer no consequences in D.C., a couple of years ago, the D.C. police department put out this tweet.
00:19:13.200It reads, quote, MPD is giving away tiles and air tags to help our residents track their vehicles.
00:19:19.200So they're hanging, you know, tracking devices on the assumption that your your car is going to get stolen.
00:19:28.200They're handing out these these devices rather.
00:19:30.200And and really, it's a fair assumption.
00:19:33.200The year this tweet came out, there were reportedly 958 carjackings in Washington, D.C.
00:20:18.200As a result of D.C.'s refusal to enforce the law, the number of high profile victims in the capital has also been rising in a very steady and public fashion.
00:20:27.200Mike Gill, a former top official at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, was murdered early last year in his Jeep in downtown D.C., just a few blocks in the White House.
00:20:37.200His wife found him in a pool of blood with one leg still hanging out from the Jeep.
00:20:41.200In February of 2023, a drug addict assaulted Congresswoman Angie Craig in her apartment.
00:20:48.200She had to pour hot coffee on him to escape after he, quote, grabbed her neck and slammed her into a steel wall.
00:20:56.200That same year, an aide to Senator Rand Paul named Philip Todd was stabbed on the sidewalk in broad daylight.
00:21:02.200Then just a few months later, a Democrat lawmaker from Texas was robbed by three masked men who took his Toyota and his sushi dinner.
00:21:12.200And this past summer, a congressional intern was murdered at a subway stop.
00:21:16.200And of course, there was the violent attack on on the man known as Big Balls during an attempted carjacking just a few days ago.
00:21:23.200And we can't forget the case of 66 year old Mohammed Anwar either.
00:21:28.200It was caught on video, but so, you know, we can't show it because it was too horrific.
00:21:33.200But just to review that case in March of 2021, around 530 p.m., two teenage girls aged 13 and 15 carjacked him while he was doing an Uber Eats delivery in the Navy Yard neighborhood.
00:21:45.200The girls hit him with a stun gun and attempted to steal his car.
00:21:49.200They dragged him down the street until he was ejected from the car and he was killed.
00:21:54.200And then the girls, you may remember in the video, they complained that they had lost their phones in the accident.
00:22:00.200No concern whatsoever for the man they just killed.
00:22:53.200But as horrifying as all these incidents and statistics may be over at CNN, they want you to know that none of it compares, even slightly, to the events of one singular day a few years ago.
00:23:06.200And that day, of course, is January 6th.
00:23:08.200This is a familiar line that, if only for strategic reasons, you'd think CNN would have dropped by now, but they're still going with it.
00:23:17.200The most violent moment in recent history in D.C. was January 6th.
00:23:23.200And it was an attack on the United States Capitol by a lot of people who were doing it in the name of Donald Trump.
00:23:29.200And it included the people who were hurt, included members of law enforcement.
00:23:34.200Now, seeing this clip, a lot of people have made the very important point that on January 6th, the only people who died were Trump supporters.
00:23:53.200January 6th, as you may remember, was a response, was something that happened on the heels of the lawlessness that broke out all over the country during the summer of George Floyd.
00:24:05.200The only way to understand the events of January 6th is to consider the preceding 10 months when Biden voters caused billions of dollars in property damage, killed several people, besieged federal courthouses, set entire city blocks on fire.
00:24:20.200All based on complete fabrications and all without any consequence.
00:24:24.200The only people who suffered real consequences were people like Kyle Rittenhouse, who tried to stop the mob.
00:24:29.200So the lesson for January 6th is not that Washington, D.C. should have federal police or that they shouldn't have federal police.
00:24:36.200The lesson is that, above all else, law and order must be enforced, no matter what.
00:24:43.200If you allow some parts of the country to descend into lawlessness, sooner or later, you'll get even more lawlessness.
00:24:58.200Once they lose their jobs and their freedoms, they have no choice.
00:25:02.200At CNN, they're pretending to ignore the context of January 6th.
00:25:05.200They also are acting as if they didn't advocate in the aftermath of January 6th for the full scale military occupation of the nation's capital, supposedly to protect Joe Biden from hordes of phantom white supremacists.
00:25:18.200And here's what that looked like, in case you forgot.
00:25:22.200Somehow, none of these photographs alarmed the anchor women at CNN.
00:25:26.200And why would they? After all, the troops were just temporary.
00:25:29.200They knew that as soon as Joe Biden took the oath of office and retired to the White House basement, the guards would leave.
00:25:36.200The fences would cut down and the nation's capital would again revert to a state of anarchy.
00:25:41.200Now, what's different about the latest deployment of the National Guard and the takeover of the police force in the D.C.
00:25:51.200The goal now is not to perform security theater for the benefit of the Democrat Party.
00:25:57.200Instead, for once, for once, the federal government is going to use the military and the FBI and other federal agencies to advance the interests of American citizens.
00:26:08.200To protect American citizens, which is which is what they're supposed to be doing.
00:27:05.200You know, I was shocked to learn that the liver is actually the second largest organ in your body and handles over 500 different functions.
00:27:24.200It's a science-backed formula specifically created to cleanse your liver of unwanted elements while supporting digestion and keeping your body's natural filter running smoothly.
00:27:33.200What really impressed me were the clinical results.
00:27:35.200In a double-blind placebo-controlled study, dose for your liver actually lowered liver enzyme levels by 50% in over 86% of participants.
00:27:43.200And get this, one shot is equivalent to 17 shots of turmeric juice.
00:27:47.200When you stick with dose over time, you can experience some incredible benefits.
00:27:51.200More energy, better digestion, reduced bloating, healthier liver enzyme function, less brain fog, and even better sleep.

00:28:29.200Ten years after the Supreme Court extended marriage rights to same-sex couples nationwide, the justices this fall will consider for the first time whether to take up a case that explicitly asks them to overturn that decision.
00:28:39.200Kim Davis, the former Kentucky County clerk who was jailed for six days in 2015 after refusing to issue marriage licenses to a gay couple on religious grounds, is appealing a $100,000 jury verdict for emotional damages plus $260,000 for attorney fees.
00:28:54.200In a petition, Davis argues First Amendment protection for free exercise of religion immunizes her from personal liability for the denial of marriage licenses.
00:29:04.200More fundamentally, she claims the high court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges extending marriage rights to same-sex couples was egregiously wrong.
00:29:13.200So, this is being, the court's being petitioned to take up this case.
00:29:17.200So, lots of histrionics in response to this.
00:29:19.200Just one example of a viral post from a leftist account.
00:29:22.200This is 30,000 likes, a million views.
00:29:27.200They're going to roll back all rights to before the time of Ronald Reagan, and it's going to take so much to reverse course of this fascism.
00:29:36.200So, there's just a lot of, you know, a lot of takes like that from the left.
00:29:43.200And now, I hate to be the one to talk these people off the ledge.
00:29:47.200I have really no interest in doing that, but I will just say that Obergefell is not going to be overturned.
00:29:58.200Like, I want it to be, but it won't be.
00:30:01.200I mean, first of all, the Supreme Court has not actually taken the case.
00:30:05.200They probably won't take it, I would think.
00:30:08.200And if they did take it, which they almost certainly won't, it's very hard to see Kavanaugh and Gorsuch and Roberts voting to overturn gay marriage.
00:31:04.200It's pro-creative by nature, fundamentally, which means gay marriage can't exist, just like square circles can't exist, just like married bachelors can't exist.
00:31:15.200It's not that there's, you know, you have a law saying, decreeing that no one can be a married bachelor.
00:31:21.200It's just that that's a thing that can't exist.
00:31:26.200Which means that the government should not recognize, solidify, codify a thing that can't exist.
00:31:35.200But even if I didn't think that, even if I believed in the fiction of, quote unquote, gay marriage, I would still admit that there is no right to it in the Constitution.
00:31:48.200Having a right to marriage at all makes no sense, considering that marriage requires another person.
00:31:55.200I mean, how can you possess a right to something that someone else has to voluntarily agree to?
00:32:44.200And it makes even less sense to say there's a right to gay marriage specifically, considering that gay marriage, so-called gay marriage, has no social utility.
00:33:56.200Families are the bedrock of civilization.
00:33:58.200So that is the vested interest that society, that civilization itself and the law, therefore, by extension, have in, you know, marriage in what we now call traditional marriage, which is just actual marriage.
00:34:14.200The marriage between a man and a woman.
00:34:17.200There's a reason why people say, oh, you get the government out of marriage.
00:34:21.200Well, no, the government has does have an interest in it, has an interest in actual marriage.
00:34:27.200Because, again, this is it's the bedrock of human civilization.
00:34:31.200I think it's not just a private thing.
00:39:49.200Just an extreme level of flagrant disrespect.
00:39:52.200And the journalist Colin Rugg on X has an update on this.
00:39:55.200He says the 47 year old Moroccan national lit a cigarette with the flame at the tomb of the unknown soldier in Paris was fined a whopping $1 and 16 cents.
00:40:04.200Hakeem H was caught on camera lighting a cigarette at the Paris war monument last week.
00:40:09.200The man was initially facing a fine of up to $17,400 with some calling for him to be deported.
00:40:14.200While in court, Hakeem H said his action was the stupidity of the century and said he was under the influence of alcohol and drugs at the time.
00:40:21.200Along with the $1,16 symbolic fine, he was given a three month suspended sentence in order to seek treatment for alcohol and drug addictions.
00:40:31.200Now, I have not been able to corroborate this $1 fine claim anywhere.
00:40:35.200I didn't spend a lot of time admittedly looking into it, but so I'm not sure how accurate that is.
00:40:40.200Maybe I'm hopelessly naive, but even for France, that seems absurd.
00:40:46.200You know, but I don't know, but regardless, obviously your tolerance for foreigners desecrating your national memorials should be zero.
00:41:00.200You should come down on them the way that they would if you tried to pull something like this in, say, Singapore or China or any Muslim country.
00:41:12.200You know, if they have some kind of monument, you go light a cigarette off of the monument.
00:41:17.200How do you think it's going to work out for you? Not well.
00:41:21.200And, you know, it'd be years in prison. It would be corporal punishment.
00:41:26.200It would be you may never see the outside of the prison cell ever again.
00:41:30.200We might we might never hear from you ever again.
00:41:33.200That's probably what's going to happen.
00:41:35.200That's the last time anyone in the outside world is ever going to hear from you.
00:41:38.200And and that is actually the correct way to respond to like you just you cannot tolerate that.
00:41:44.200You are not coming into our country and desecrating our war memorials.
00:41:48.200You you I mean, you should treat that like that person just did a mass shooting and killed 10 people.
00:41:54.200And I'm not saying it's exactly morally equivalent.
00:41:56.200But our I mean, obviously, it's not you're killing 10 people versus desecrate, but it's still our tolerance for it.
00:42:03.200What I'm saying is our tolerance for that.
00:42:05.200Should be the lowest level possible, which is zero.
00:42:09.200And and but apparently, according to this, it's only a dollar and 16 cents.
00:42:18.200This, of course, is the problem with bringing people into your country who have no respect for your history or your traditions.
00:42:23.200They have no ties to your country or your culture.
00:44:16.200It's naively expecting a warm, inviting local place.
00:44:22.200Right. That's what I was kind of expecting.
00:44:23.200And instead, what I found, of course, is that the place was staffed entirely by foreigners.
00:44:31.200And they look to be to me, they look to be Middle Eastern or South Asian.
00:44:35.200And they're all speaking a foreign language.
00:44:38.200They're all I walk into this place again.
00:44:40.200We're out in the country far away from any big city.
00:44:44.200And I walk into this place and and I don't even understand the language they're speaking.
00:44:49.200And on the inside, it was just it was just the same generic dumpy gas station vibe that you find everywhere in every major city.
00:44:59.200And they didn't make food anymore. Right.
00:45:01.200Right. They had there was no this this they didn't do ready to order, you know, they didn't do made to order food.
00:45:09.200It was no longer the place with the best lunch in town as they once many years ago proclaimed proudly.
00:45:15.200You know, then you can imagine that many years ago there was a guy, probably a guy that runs the place and he's behind the counter and he's he's whipping up with it, making me probably got a small menu of only a couple of things.
00:45:25.200And the kind of place you walk in and you say, hey, whatever it is that you do well here, go ahead and I'll have one of those.
00:45:32.200And but that's long gone. That's not the case anymore.
00:45:36.200And so now they had a couple of like pre-made food options that looked really terrible.
00:45:40.200Same kind of food options they have at every gas station.
00:45:43.200And they had and mostly they sold lotto tickets and they sold vapes and they sold, you know, glass pipes.
00:45:51.200And they did just become basically a glorified like smoke shop.
00:45:56.200And so I turned around and left. So later that day, you know, I was I was curious.
00:46:01.200And when I got home, I Googled, I looked it up.
00:46:06.200And, you know, sure enough, you plug the place into Google and you find the Google reviews and you look and you see that, you know, six, seven, eight years ago, this place was getting a lot of great reviews.
00:46:19.200And people were talking about this is a great place, a friendly place, you know, great company, good food, quaint little place.
00:46:31.200You know, a lot of good reviews and then you start seeing the one star reviews, the two star, you know, one star, two and a half one star reviews come come pouring in.
00:46:39.200And that is right at the moment. And you see one of the comments, one of the reviews says it, that a couple of years ago, the the place was was bought by someone and there's new ownership now.
00:46:50.200And so this is when the foreigners came in and they bought the place.
00:46:54.200And now and the one star reviews come pouring in and they just stripped it of everything that made it great, everything that made it inviting and warm and local.
00:47:05.200Right. Everything that made it feel like.
00:47:56.200You know, and it's not even like you go in there and you've got the new ownership and yeah, they're foreigners, but they're trying their best to preserve what it was before and trying their best to make it still feel like a local place.
00:48:07.200No, they just they turn it just this whole totally soulless cash grab of a place.
00:48:14.200Lowest common denominator, utterly soulless and dank and grimy and just like you don't want to spend more than 30 seconds in there.
00:49:39.200Whereas before, if you transported me into the middle of that place, I'd look around and go, OK, well, this is like I'd be able to tell pretty quickly.
00:49:45.200I'd be able to tell where you were because you're in a place where they have pride in the fact that like this is we're here.
00:50:13.200And we're told that it that it that it that it doesn't matter.
00:50:16.200We're told that like we that we shouldn't care about this.
00:50:18.200And meanwhile, in any other country with any other group of people, preserving the culture is understood by everyone to be important, to be a worthy goal to preserve the culture.
00:50:33.200I mean, for God's sake, you have you have primitive tribes in loincloths in the Amazon rainforest.
00:50:56.200I mean, the culture is in every sense like backwards and primitive and they're dying of like they're dying of diseases that people haven't died from in modern society for hundreds of years.
00:51:08.200Right. Their teeth are rotting out of their dying of like tooth infections.
00:51:11.200And yet we look at that and we say, you know, it's very important to preserve that culture.
00:51:17.200OK, then why isn't it important to preserve the culture of the town that I was driving through?
00:51:23.200We got to preserve the culture of the of the Amazon rainforest loincloth tribe.
00:51:28.200Fine. I could buy that. I could buy that.
00:51:31.200But this small town like preserving that culture means nothing.
00:51:36.200It's it's it's it's that culture is nothing.
00:51:39.200Just throw it in the freaking garbage is what you're telling me.
00:51:42.200And not only that, but if we say a word about preserving that culture, then we're racist.
00:51:47.200Then we're bigots. Then we're far right extremists.
00:52:21.200But there are a lot of things these days that have to be said that should go without saying that's just one of them.
00:52:25.200What if you could delay your next two mortgage payments?

00:53:23.200For 80 years, Pope Pius XII has been smeared as Hitler's Pope, as they say, silent, complicit, a coward.
00:53:31.200But what if history got it wrong? The Pope and the Fuhrer, the secret Vatican files of World War II, premieres tomorrow on Daily Wire Plus.
00:53:38.200Michael Knowles opens the Vatican secret wartime archives to reveal the true story behind the truth that's been buried by history.
00:53:46.200And just as we uncover the truth of the past, this fall, a new voice rises for the future.

00:54:02.200Now let's get to our daily cancellation.
00:54:04.200Probably a cliche to point out that if you want to talk like a Klansman in the year 2025 without losing your job, the path of least resistance is to identify as a member of the left.
00:54:21.200I mean, listen to these people for five seconds and they're guaranteed to extol the virtues of racial hierarchy, domestic terrorism, spraying swastikas and other people's property.
00:54:30.200Really, it's like they compete to outdo one another.
00:54:34.200They'll say, for example, that the Trump administration shouldn't deport illegal aliens because rich white people need someone to do their gardening for them.
00:54:40.200Or they'll tell you that the idea of enforcing laws is inherently racist because laws disproportionately affect black people.
00:54:46.200Now, all that is to say, without a doubt, Democrats have perfected the art of coming up with new ways of insulting and ultimately, you know, demeaning various quote unquote minority groups, even though they claim that they're not interested in doing so.
00:55:00.200They claim that they're doing the opposite.
00:55:01.200But even with this well-deserved reputation in mind, you really have to hand it to a woman named Jennifer Welsh.
00:55:06.200Now, admittedly, I didn't know anything about Jennifer Welsh until I heard this story.
00:55:09.200Apparently, she's an actress and a podcaster, presumably with no relation to the Welsh brand of grape based products, although I really don't know.
00:55:16.200The New York Post describes her as a former Bravo star, which seems like a contradiction in terms.
00:55:21.200But in any event, she's certainly very left wing by her own omission.
00:55:24.200And the other day on her podcast called I've Had It, Jennifer Welsh announced a boycott of all Mexican, Chinese and Indian restaurants.
00:55:32.200She also wholeheartedly endorsed Cracker Barrel, saying it's the only place where white people should spend their money.
00:55:38.200Now, again, ordinarily, based on these statements, you'd think that Jennifer Welsh is maybe one of those dastardly white supremacists that Joe Biden and Merrick Garland were always warning us about.
00:55:48.200Yeah, that's that's not the case, at least not to the to my knowledge anyway, but you can judge for yourself.
00:55:53.200Here's Jennifer Welsh in all her glory explaining her new planned boycott of so-called people of color. Watch.
00:56:00.200I've had it with white people that triple trumped.
00:56:06.200Yeah, that have the nerve and the audacity to walk into a Mexican restaurant, a Chinese restaurant, an Indian restaurant, go to perhaps their gay hairdresser.
00:56:21.200I don't think you should be able to enjoy anything but Cracker Barrel.
00:56:26.200And if you want to triple Trump and you want to browbeat DEI, you want to browbeat gay people and you want to browbeat black people as you've been doing for 400 years and you want to browbeat this generation of immigrants that come over here and open up businesses earnestly, pay their taxes.
00:56:43.200You want to demonize them and call them rapists and felons and all that when the felon is the teeny weeny mushroom piece of cankles, McTaco at the top of the ticket.
00:56:54.820I have had it from top to bottom. White people that triple Trump should be banned, boycotted from enjoying the best thing that America has to offer, which is multiculturalism.
00:57:06.700Get your fat asses out of the Mexican restaurant. Get your fat asses over to Cracker Barrel because nobody wants to see your mug ass, teeny weeny, pink arm, big gut around.
00:57:21.560Now, not that it's the most important part of this very important story, but I want to clarify a technical point first.
00:57:28.240Initially, I assume that the term triple Trump meant people who had voted for Trump three times.
00:57:33.060But apparently, per the New York Post, quote, the term triple Trump refers to those who support the critics, support what critics argue are the president's anti stances on immigration, diversity and LGBTQ rights.
00:57:47.000So that's apparently the textbook definition.
00:57:49.080Now, I'm not very convinced, but, you know, the jury's still out on that one.
00:57:53.640In any event, during this podcast, the co-host, someone who goes by the name Angie Pumps Sullivan, doubled down.
00:58:00.180She issued a challenge to white female Trump supporters.
00:58:02.800And here's what she said, quote, I want you to give up a credit card in your name, Sullivan said.
00:58:07.380I want you to give up the bank account in your name and I want you to be completely beholden to a man.
00:58:12.580I want you to work. I don't want you to work.
00:58:14.640I want you to stay home and make cornflakes from scratch for that effort, because that's what you're voting for.
00:58:22.000When you're talking about the golden age and let's make America great again, they're talking about you having less rights than men, not be able to have a credit card, not being able to own anything in your own name.
00:58:32.040So triple Trump, country club, Christian white women, you should have to forfeit those luxuries, close quote.
00:58:39.480So you get the idea. White people need to stay far, far away from minorities, apparently.
00:58:44.300And white women, for their part, need to make cornflakes from scratch while staying at home all day because they're not allowed to have any contact whatsoever with the outside world.
00:58:53.360We're told that because, you know, white people vote for Trump that all this makes sense.
00:58:56.980Now, as compelling as this reasoning is, you do have to wonder where this whole thing goes, I mean, if we're taking it to its logical conclusion.
00:59:06.260I mean, I'm on board, but it seems like a half measure from where I'm standing.
00:59:11.400Surely, as repentant white people, we can't stop with a simple boycott of Indian, Chinese and Mexican food, along with homosexual hairdressers.
00:59:19.400We can't rest on our laurels after we've bankrupted all the Mexican and Indian restaurants and the gay people in the entire country, as this woman wants us to do.
00:59:28.280And after we've decided to handcuff our wives to the kitchen and spend all of our disposable income on meals at Cracker Barrel.
00:59:34.300I mean, we can't stop there. That would just be lazy.
00:59:36.760In the interest of racial justice, there's simply no doubt that we have to go a step further to really demonstrate our commitment to the mission of equity and to honor Barack Obama's legacy.
00:59:45.580So here's an idea. Perhaps for the benefit of all these oppressed racial minorities, we should spare them any contact whatsoever with any innovations or inventions that were made by the tainted hands of white people.
00:59:59.560That's the only way to truly prevent white supremacy from impacting anybody else.
01:00:03.260We should channel Jennifer Welsh and keep all those people far, far away from devilish white supremacist inventions created by notorious white supremacists, such as, you know, the printing press and computers and the telephone and the Internet, airplanes, motor vehicles, air conditioning, you know, like everything in modern society.
01:00:23.720They could forget about penicillin, too.
01:00:25.460So only once racial minorities are permanently grounded, forced to communicate with smoke signals and carrier pigeons without the benefit of modern medicine, only then can true racial justice be achieved.
01:00:38.080That's where the wisdom of Jennifer Welsh would take us anyway.
01:00:40.800And I can't see any reason not to trust her divine providence.
01:00:44.000After all, she apparently starred in Bravo's reality show Sweet Home, which was about her luxury interior design business.
01:00:52.320And it's about as good a credential as you can hope for.
01:00:55.980Now, I'll admit that as easy as it may be to mock people like Jennifer Welsh, I do unironically have a great deal of appreciation for videos like this.
01:01:04.980I genuinely wish that leftists who are more recognizable to Jennifer Welsh, which is to say, you know, most of them, would record a million more podcasts and rants like this one.
01:01:16.800That's because it's exactly the sort of messaging that got Democrats demolished in 2024.
01:01:21.760I'd be very happy if they kept it going through the midterms and on to 2028.
01:01:27.560Just the dripping disdain, the seething contempt for anyone who doesn't do exactly as they say, the deep boiling hatred for white people and for themselves by extension.
