The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1665 - Everyone Needs To See This Viral Testimony From This Grieving Father

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, a powerful video goes viral of a father angrily calling out the

00:00:04.200 lawmakers whose soft-on-crime policies led to his daughter's murder. You don't want to miss

00:00:08.340 this video. Very powerful. Also, Pete Hegseth unveils the new standards for combat troops.

00:00:13.720 It will finally be one high standard for everybody. Plus, an unintentionally hilarious

00:00:17.400 new statue of Tina Turner is getting a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons. And the

00:00:21.380 NFL gives the Super Bowl halftime show to a far-left Hispanic pop star who was boycotting

00:00:25.820 the United States to protest ICE. Great choice there. We'll talk about all that and more today

00:00:30.540 on the Matt Wall Show.

00:02:08.900 clothes only deliver at best on half of that. They look sharp, but they're uncomfortable and a pain to

00:03:22.120 Devante Dickey parked a stolen vehicle on the side of the road in Cypress Street in Columbia,

00:03:28.280 South Carolina. He then broke into a home and stole several items, including a firearm car keys

00:03:33.660 and a wallet. Dickey then entered the unlocked door of another nearby home, where he encountered

00:03:39.980 a 22-year-old aspiring teacher from North Carolina named Logan Federico, who was in town

00:03:45.540 visiting friends. After dragging Federico out of bed, Dickey pressed his firearm up to a ribcage

00:03:52.400 and shot her and killed her. He also stole several items from the home, including credit cards.

00:03:58.900 Authorities didn't respond to the home until nearly noon the next day when Federico's body

00:04:02.740 was discovered, and by that point, Dickey had used his stolen credit cards to purchase numerous items

00:04:07.880 in West Columbia. He also stole another vehicle, committed arson, and committed other crimes as well.

00:04:14.840 Watch. 22-year-old Logan Federico was randomly shot and killed during an alleged home invasion

00:04:21.640 near the University of South Carolina. Police say Logan had just returned to the house where she was

00:04:27.240 staying when she came face-to-face with an intruder. Columbia police believe she was one of at least 10

00:04:33.580 victims targeted by the same man, a suspect accused of breaking into homes, stealing cars, using stolen

00:04:40.880 credit cards, and eventually setting a house on fire. Now, friends and family are left mourning a

00:04:47.600 young woman whose life was cut short. Now, the media describes this murder as, quote, random, but of

00:04:55.200 course, there was nothing random about it. For one thing, interracial homicides like this are overwhelmingly 0.70

00:04:59.760 committed by black criminals against white victims. And of course, this murder was the predictable and 0.99

00:05:04.600 intended result of a judicial system that exists not to punish violent felons, but to unleash them on

00:05:10.860 unsuspecting, law-abiding Americans. Now, take a look at the mugshots that Alexander Devontae Dickey

00:05:16.940 managed to assemble in just 30 years on this earth. You can see it here. The local news station,

00:05:23.240 WAS News 10, took a close look at Dickey's rap sheet, and here's what they found. Quote,

00:05:27.880 In total, Dickey faced nearly 40 charges within the past decade, with many of the counts ultimately

00:05:33.480 dismissed. While the criminal pattern dates back to 2013, his first conviction came the following year.

00:05:40.000 He was only sentenced in eight cases that involved charges such as robbery, drug possession, and

00:05:44.480 larceny. In 2023, records show Dickey pleaded guilty to third-degree burglary. While he was sentenced

00:05:50.960 to five years, he was given credit for over 410 days already served. Dickey was also placed on

00:05:56.380 probation, which was sent to end next month, but it was shortened for compliance. Now, in one of his

00:06:04.680 first run-ins with the law back in 2014, Dickey was arrested for repeatedly breaking into parked cars as

00:06:10.740 well as driving a stolen car, and then over the next decade, he would repeatedly commit similar crimes

00:06:16.160 without spending any significant period in prison. The article goes on to explain that, for some reason,

00:06:23.140 prosecutors claim that they weren't aware of Dickey's rap sheet when they prosecuted him in 2023.

00:06:29.720 They suggest that there was a paperwork error with his fingerprints that prevented them from

00:06:34.660 accessing information about his prior crimes. But even if that's true, and it probably isn't,

00:06:40.620 it doesn't matter. He clearly should have been imprisoned for life many times over. The very first time

00:06:47.540 somebody robs several cars and then steals one, he forfeits his freedom. Believe it or not,

00:06:54.820 that law is already on the books in South Carolina. The max penalty for two counts of first-degree

00:06:59.780 burglary is life imprisonment. That's already on the books. Quoting directly from South Carolina's

00:07:05.900 penal code, quote,

00:07:06.680 Burglary in the first-degree is a felony punishable by life imprisonment. The court,

00:07:12.080 in its discretion, may sentence the defendant to a term of not less than 15 years.

00:07:18.340 Well, that sentence should have been handed down immediately. Normal, functioning members of society

00:07:24.520 do not commit these crimes. You cannot rehabilitate the people who do.

00:07:31.120 Okay, rehabilitation is basically a myth, the way that we think of it. The way that we think of it,

00:07:38.860 we could take these totally dysfunctional criminals and rehabilitate them and turn them

00:07:43.800 into functioning members of society. It almost never happens. Okay, it's mythological. It's like

00:07:50.420 talking about Bigfoot. And even if you can theoretically rehabilitate them, it's not worth the risk to the

00:07:58.240 general public. Now, critics will object and they'll say, well, are we really going to just,

00:08:03.380 well, what are we going to do, give up on people like this?

00:08:07.880 Yeah, we should. We should give up on them.

00:08:14.120 Alexander Dickey. Okay, society should have given up on him a long time ago. Once you have demonstrated

00:08:21.720 that you have no interest in being a part of civilized society, we should give up on you. 0.85

00:08:26.300 You can spend the rest of your life locked in a cage like an animal because that's how you want 0.98

00:08:31.640 to act. It's not our responsibility to help you or give you another chance or try to domesticate you

00:08:42.460 like some kind of feral cat. We're done with you. Goodbye forever. That should be the approach.

00:08:50.840 And if it was the approach, this criminal never would have had the opportunity to murder this

00:08:57.760 young woman. The time for discretion in these kinds of cases is over. Any judge who abuses this

00:09:05.660 discretion to release violent criminals like this should be held liable for the murders that

00:09:11.140 inevitably result. Until now, there really hasn't been much popular support for a change like this.

00:09:17.080 That's because Logan Federico's murder, as utterly horrifying as it is, is similar to murders

00:09:22.940 that occur every day in this country. Now, what makes the killing of Logan Federico different from

00:09:28.620 a practical perspective is that really for the first time in memory, the family of the victim

00:09:34.460 is not resorting to leftist platitudes in response. They're not urging everyone to come together or

00:09:42.500 preaching about unity and all that sort of thing. And we saw something like that after the killing

00:09:48.160 of Austin Metcalfe. As thousands of leftists, primarily black leftists, danced on Austin Metcalfe's 0.89

00:09:53.980 grave, the father insisted that it wasn't a racial issue and he was being forgiving and this is just a

00:10:02.980 poor decision that a kid made and all that sort of thing. Now, I'm not disparaging the father in that

00:10:08.520 case. It's impossible to imagine being in his position. But the point is that his response,

00:10:14.420 if adopted on a societal and systemic level, is how you get a lot more violence.

00:10:22.860 Well, that's not happening this time. Instead, the family of Logan Federico, particularly her father,

00:10:27.980 Stephen, is pledging to devote the rest of his life to changing the laws that allowed Alexander

00:10:34.800 Devante Dickey to murder his daughter. He's not letting the left-wing narrative take hold,

00:10:39.520 even for a moment. And he's a big part of the reason why the other day lawmakers in Charlotte,

00:10:44.300 North Carolina, met for a hearing on violent crime. And here's what Stephen Federico had to say.

00:10:50.260 This clip is going viral for very good reason. Very powerful address from Stephen. Listen.

00:10:56.800 Here's what I need you to do. When I tell you this story, think about your kids. Think about your

00:11:04.240 child coming home from a night out with their friends, laying down, going to sleep, feeling

00:11:10.960 somebody come in the room and wake them and drag her out of bed, naked, forced on her knees with her 1.00

00:11:21.620 hands over her head, begging for her life, begging for her hero, her father, me, that couldn't be 0.98

00:11:33.980 there. She was five foot three. She weighed 115 pounds. Bang! Dead. Gone. Why? Because Alexander

00:11:50.180 Devante Dickey, who was arrested 39 goddamn times, 25 felonies, was on the street. 0.98

00:12:03.220 How about that? How good are we doing for our family? He should have been in jail for over 140 0.98

00:12:10.420 years for all the crimes he committed. You know how much time he spent in prison?

00:12:14.660 A little over 600 days in 10 years. He's only 30 years old. He was committing 2.65 crimes

00:12:24.360 a year since he was 15 years old. But nobody could figure out that he couldn't be rehabilitated.

00:12:33.680 Well, you'd have to put him in prison. My daughter laid on the floor for seven hours before somebody 0.96

00:12:39.920 in that house recognized that something was wrong. And that serial criminal, an hour later,

00:12:47.860 went on a spending spree with her debit card. When they saw his face on a video, they didn't

00:12:55.660 have to do a check. He was arrested so many times they knew who he was. They knew exactly where to go

00:13:01.580 get him. Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic that I'm here today. Now, what you're seeing there is somewhat 1.00

00:13:13.360 unfamiliar these days. That is righteous anger. And it's exactly what we need to see. He is enraged.

00:13:23.540 He's enraged. He's enraged because he feels like the system essentially chose the violent thug who

00:13:30.960 murdered his daughter over his daughter. He feels like the system had a choice between being merciful

00:13:37.040 to this scumbag or to protecting his daughter. And they chose the scumbag, swapping one for the other. 1.00

00:13:45.520 That's how he feels. And he's right. That's exactly what happened. Now, you'll see a lot of theories 1.00

00:13:52.580 online about why when someone is killed in a very preventable homicide, the family members of the victim

00:13:58.040 usually don't have this reaction publicly. We usually don't see them enraged like this, even though they

00:14:06.220 must be enraged and they should be. Now, some people will tell you that in the past, government agents spoke

00:14:12.980 to the victim's families and coach them on what to say. But the more likely explanation is that for

00:14:18.040 many generations, in no small part because of the rhetoric of both parties, it's been considered

00:14:23.140 impolite and uncivilized and bigoted to point out the truth. You're not supposed to talk about the

00:14:30.780 fact that homicides are both preventable and predictable. For the same reason, you're not

00:14:35.960 supposed to talk about crime statistics or practice pattern recognition when you're out for a walk late at

00:14:41.560 night. As this hearing in Charlotte demonstrated, that dam has now finally broken. Witness after

00:14:49.120 witness exposed the degree to which Democrats have deliberately allowed violent criminals to

00:14:54.360 terrorize entire communities. We'll play one more of these statements. It's from Justice Campbell,

00:15:00.120 a police officer with the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department. His life has also been changed

00:15:06.060 forever by one of these violent career thugs. Watch. April 29th of 2024, the Marshal Service

00:15:13.620 was serving a warrant for a convicted felon for possession of a firearm again.

00:15:23.680 While serving that warrant, four members of that or three members of the task force and one member of

00:15:29.560 the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department were gunned down and murdered that day, along with five

00:15:33.380 others including myself that were injured. Now, that day was chaos. Responding to that call, multiple officers, not only dead but injured, were taking gunfire from an elevated position by a known convicted felon. During the process of extracting the officers,

00:16:02.940 I ended up breaking my foot. I ended up breaking my foot, which resulted in me being diagnosed with regional complex pain syndrome.

00:16:12.820 It's a miserable diagnosis which led to the amputation of my right foot. His entire arrest report, and in this report starts in 2009, where he burglarized a residence with a stolen firearm.

00:16:27.080 After he was taken to jail, he was released, where he committed multiple other offenses prior to him going to prison.

00:16:41.600 He was released from prison, and again, continuously committed violent crimes with firearms.

00:16:52.440 Now, confronted with testimony like this is abundantly clear that Democrats have no idea what to do.

00:16:59.080 Without total narrative control, they are in very serious trouble.

00:17:02.980 And in particular, there are now so many victims of violent crime as a result of Democrat policies

00:17:07.400 that Democrats themselves can't even keep them straight.

00:17:11.120 So many victims are now coming forward that they can't keep track of the whole roster.

00:17:15.760 And it's gotten so bad that at this hearing in Charlotte, one Democrat representative, a woman named Deborah Ross,

00:17:22.420 appeared to confuse Logan Federico with Irina Zrutska, the Ukrainian refugee who was murdered on the light rail several weeks ago.

00:17:31.500 Stephen Federico had to correct Deborah Ross mid-statement. Watch.

00:17:36.080 I also want to express my deepest, deepest condolences to the family of Irina Zrutska.

00:17:45.760 What happened to her is simply unimaginable and unconscionable.

00:17:51.880 And I hope that we will take to heart her family's request not to remember her by her last moments or politicize her death.

00:18:02.900 The majority has brought us here together.

00:18:06.320 And I would say I went to the Philadelphia hearing.

00:18:09.760 I've been on the Judiciary Committee since I was ever in Congress.

00:18:15.760 But to be honest, and for our victims, this hearing is too little, too late.

00:18:23.380 We should have been doing more to prevent crime and address the lack of mental health care long before this hearing.

00:18:33.720 This is my daughter.

00:18:36.260 This isn't Irina.

00:18:37.120 Oh, I'm sorry.

00:18:37.920 This is my daughter.

00:18:38.460 I am so sorry.

00:18:39.500 Okay?

00:18:39.920 I am so sorry.

00:18:40.860 This is Logan Federico.

00:18:42.180 Thank you so much for bringing that.

00:18:45.320 Thank you.

00:18:46.880 Thank you, sir.

00:18:48.180 I am so sorry for you.

00:18:50.560 And she was before Irina.

00:18:52.400 I am so sorry.

00:18:53.140 Four months before.

00:18:53.660 I'm so sorry for your loss.

00:18:55.880 And my heart goes out to you.

00:18:58.040 My heart goes out to you.

00:19:00.120 How dare you not know her?

00:19:01.360 I am so sorry for your loss.

00:19:31.360 Deborah Ross apparently thought that she was looking at Irina Zrutska, starts talking about mental health issues, which have no relevance to the murder of Logan Federico or any of the other witnesses in front of her.

00:19:43.880 And Stephen wasn't going to stand for that, nor should anyone.

00:19:48.520 If you look at the media coverage of this case, you'll find a lot of excuses for why Alexander Devante Dickey was constantly being let out of jail.

00:19:55.920 Here's just one example from law and crime.

00:19:59.060 Listen.

00:19:59.940 Like how you said, there's been a lot of past convictions, so many mugshots, so many discharges and accusations against him.

00:20:07.860 How does a person that's, you know, described as a true criminal even have the chance to do something like this again?

00:20:14.560 Do you think that this is just some type of failure somewhere?

00:20:17.860 He was able to slip through the cracks?

00:20:19.280 You know, most people don't go to jail for life in prison for breaking and entering.

00:20:25.660 Let's say it was auto break-ins, those smaller, petty crimes that really do make people feel unsafe and it really makes people feel violated.

00:20:32.260 It just may not rise to the level of 20, 40 years of a sentence.

00:20:37.880 So there are people who have been convicted who may have done two, three, four years for these crimes and then they're back out.

00:20:44.620 But under the laws, generally, there aren't those max penalties.

00:20:49.220 Now, analysts talk about the law as if that's something that we can't immediately change.

00:20:54.920 It's just a fact of life, we're told, that criminals can repeatedly commit acts of violence without receiving mandatory life imprisonment or the death penalty.

00:21:01.940 As we discussed earlier, that's not even true in South Carolina.

00:21:06.960 This guy could have been sentenced for life a long time ago under the current law.

00:21:13.860 But to the extent that this is, you know, that you don't have those laws anywhere else, well, then you need to change that.

00:21:22.760 Change the law.

00:21:23.560 Instead of engaging with any of this, Democrats will say that in reality, the solution is, you know, spending more tax money on shelters and mental health treatment.

00:21:34.020 That's what happened at the hearing in Charlotte.

00:21:35.920 And there was a viral post on X to the same effect.

00:21:38.820 It racked up several million views in reference to the murder of Irina Zeritska, who, again, was stabbed in a light rail car by an apparently schizophrenic black man who said,

00:21:48.840 I got that white girl as he walked away.

00:21:51.400 This person wrote the following, quote,

00:21:53.560 The right has zero solution to this.

00:21:56.780 Paranoid schizophrenic violent outbursts require an integrated care system to ensure he has access to and is taking his medication.

00:22:05.620 They just defunded school lunches.

00:22:07.660 They won't fund this.

00:22:10.920 Yes, an integrated care system.

00:22:14.420 That's the framing that they've settled upon.

00:22:18.160 They apparently believe that unless we fund school lunches and daycare for schizophrenics,

00:22:22.520 then we simply have no conceivable way of stopping innocent women like Irina Zeritska from having their throats cut on the subway.

00:22:30.260 We're just completely powerless.

00:22:33.740 But, you know, there actually is a pretty clear solution, one that most people on the right would endorse.

00:22:40.000 Most people, most common sense people in general would endorse. 1.00

00:22:43.640 As I said on X, you know, my solution to violent criminal sociopath lunatics is to convict them in a court of law and then kill them. 1.00

00:22:57.000 That's my solution. 1.00

00:22:59.000 That's my solution. 1.00

00:23:00.200 Kill them. 1.00

00:23:02.260 You know, we like to hear violence is never the answer. 1.00

00:23:05.260 Yeah, no, sometimes violence is definitely the answer. 0.95

00:23:07.820 I mean, that's a ridiculous thing to say.

00:23:09.320 There are obviously scenarios. 0.88

00:23:11.160 There are obviously situations you can be in where violence is the answer.

00:23:15.360 And it's the answer here.

00:23:16.900 There are legal constitutional violence used against convicted criminals and administered by the state.

00:23:25.240 That kind of violence specifically.

00:23:28.820 But it is violence.

00:23:31.500 And it is the answer.

00:23:34.460 I mean, it's a solution that would have saved Irina's life. 0.93

00:23:37.800 There is one absolute 100% way to ensure that a violent criminal does not kill a woman on the light rail car, and that is to convict that person and execute them.

00:23:52.420 If they're no longer on earth, then 100% guarantee that they will never hurt another person.

00:23:59.520 So, yeah, I would call that a solution.

00:24:02.540 It would save hundreds of lives every year. 0.68

00:24:05.120 Like, believe it or not, you can just kill the worst and most dangerous people. 0.98

00:24:12.440 You can do that.

00:24:14.640 There is no real discernible downside, especially these days, with forensics being as sophisticated as it is.

00:24:22.660 Everything's on video now.

00:24:25.420 So, the one argument against it, which is that, well, what if you execute an innocent person?

00:24:31.220 We can rule out that possibility completely.

00:24:33.440 Okay, we know who killed Irina Zerutska.

00:24:37.740 There's no question about it.

00:24:39.420 There is a 0% chance that it was anyone but that guy.

00:24:42.580 It's on video.

00:24:43.760 It was done in front of dozens of witnesses.

00:24:46.460 We know who did it.

00:24:49.160 So, that is out the window now.

00:24:50.820 We don't have to worry about that.

00:24:51.840 And so, now there's no downside.

00:24:54.600 Can anyone think of one?

00:24:55.600 The guy who killed Irina Zerutska or Logan Federico, what is the downside to just executing them?

00:25:03.780 Can someone explain?

00:25:04.620 I really want to hear.

00:25:05.180 What is the downside?

00:25:07.560 This is the solution that's been deployed to great effect by almost every civilized society on earth for thousands of years.

00:25:13.460 We can deploy it again.

00:25:15.580 And what this hearing in Charlotte demonstrates is that, for the first time since the crime crackdown of the 1990s, there's a real popular will for punishing degenerate and violent criminals as harshly as we possibly can.

00:25:28.780 And now we need to start handing out those punishments. 0.95

00:25:34.080 And in doing so, like Stephen Federico, we should be unapologetic and forceful.

00:25:41.140 You know, that is the fight that this righteously angry father has just devoted his life to.

00:25:46.760 And every single American, people who don't want their daughters to be executed as they sleep, should join him.

00:25:54.520 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:25:58.780 Did you know that all chips and fries used to be cooked in tallow up until the 1990s when big corporations switched to cheap processed seed oils that cause inflammation?

00:26:11.600 So Massa decided to actually do something about the garbage that passes for tortilla chips these days.

00:26:17.020 They ditched all the seed oils and went back to just three ingredients.

00:26:21.080 Organic, um, nixtamilized corn, whatever that is, but I'm sure it's important.

00:26:26.240 Sea salt and 100% grass-fed beef tallow.

00:26:29.740 And here's the kicker.

00:26:30.760 They don't taste like some sad health food compromise.

00:26:33.660 These chips are crunchier, tastier, and sturdy enough that they won't snap in half when you dip them.

00:26:38.480 Plus, unlike regular chips that leave you feeling bloated and sluggish, Massa actually makes you feel satisfied and energetic.

00:26:45.360 The beef tallow makes them way more filling also, so you're not mindlessly demolishing the entire bag and still feeling hungry.

00:26:50.820 I'm always on the go with the kids, so I need snacks that actually fuel me instead of leaving me feeling worse.

00:26:56.440 Massa chips keep me satisfied whether I'm packing lunches or need something quick after a busy day.

00:27:02.560 Um, I mean, I don't pack lunches, but, you know, I mostly enjoy just eating them myself.

00:27:07.300 And I also enjoy that they don't crumble all over my car.

00:27:09.820 That's the main thing.

00:27:10.980 That's the most important thing.

00:27:12.040 Massa chips is beloved by tens of thousands of customers and has been endorsed by industry-leading health and nutrition experts.

00:27:17.960 Ready to give Massa a try?

00:27:29.340 You ever think you're buying good old American meat at the grocery store?

00:27:32.440 Yeah, well, so did I until I learned that labels can say product of the USA for meat that never even met an American cow.

00:27:39.260 Over 4 billion pounds of the stuff imported last year to be exact.

00:27:42.600 All dressed up to look local, but it isn't.

00:27:44.960 I mean, what else are these labels trying to pull on us makes you really have to wonder about that.

00:27:48.960 So I started looking for something that I could actually trust, especially with kids to feed and a wife who can spot a so-so steak from a mile away.

00:27:55.240 That's when I found Good Ranchers.

00:27:57.320 These guys only work with local American farms, 100% of it, not a single mystery meat cut in the bunch, guaranteed.

00:28:04.640 Honestly, I joined up for the deals, $25 off every box, free shipping, a free lifelong gift, hard to beat.

00:28:11.080 We rotate between bacon, Italian sausage, my personal favorite, those chicken thighs.

00:28:15.780 And if life gets hectic, well, you can pause or skip a box easily.

00:28:19.640 No guilt trips, no subscription shenanigans.

00:28:22.060 I also love their steaks.

00:28:23.060 They're so unbelievably good and tender that they make pricey steakhouse cuts taste like side dishes at a drive-thru.

00:28:29.440 You just can't beat the quality that Good Ranchers delivers.

00:28:32.080 Best part, my code Walsh gets you $40 off and free meat for life when you subscribe.

00:28:49.140 Welcome to the table.

00:28:50.860 Okay, Pete Hegseth, who I think is doing a really great job in his role, today addressed an assembly of top military leaders.

00:28:58.440 And he unveiled a bunch of changes that he's making, has already started to implement.

00:29:03.580 And a big focus is that, you know, is the standards.

00:29:08.780 Standards are being raised.

00:29:10.400 They're raising the standards.

00:29:12.480 Watch.

00:29:13.500 This, and I want to be very clear about this.

00:29:16.200 This is not about preventing women from serving.

00:29:18.380 We are, we very much value the impact of female troops. 1.00

00:29:23.940 Our female officers and NCOs are the absolute best in the world. 1.00

00:29:30.440 But when it comes to any job that requires physical power to perform in combat, those physical standards must be high and gender neutral. 0.98

00:29:39.180 If women can make it, excellent. 1.00

00:29:41.900 If not, it is what it is.

00:29:44.060 If that means no women qualify for some combat jobs, so be it. 1.00

00:29:49.480 That is not the intent, but it could be the result.

00:29:53.240 So be it.

00:29:55.160 It will also mean that weak men won't qualify because we're not playing games.

00:30:00.220 This is combat.

00:30:01.540 This is life or death.

00:30:03.380 As we all know, this is you versus an enemy hell-bent on killing you.

00:30:07.280 To be an effective, lethal fighting force, you must trust that the warrior alongside you in battle is capable, truly, physically capable of doing what is necessary under fire.

00:30:21.260 You know this is the only standard you would want for your kids and for your grandkids.

00:30:28.300 Apply the War Department golden rule, the 1990 test, and the E6 test, and it's really hard to go wrong.

00:30:34.880 Now, think about this for a minute because people are going to freak out about this.

00:30:38.620 The media, the left, they're going to say that Hegseth is trying to drive women out of the military and so on. 0.92

00:30:44.320 They're already saying that.

00:30:45.580 They've been saying that.

00:30:47.100 But at the same time, according to their own claims, Hegseth actually isn't changing anything.

00:30:54.080 I mean, they're the ones who have insisted for years that we didn't lower the standards for women. 0.98

00:30:58.820 Again, they insisted that women should be allowed in combat because they're just as capable as men. 0.99

00:31:04.420 I mean, that has been the argument. 0.91

00:31:05.780 At no point, the people that support recruiting as many women as possible and diversifying the ranks and all that kind of crap, 0.52

00:31:14.080 at no point have they ever admitted that the standards are being lowered.

00:31:19.560 At no point have they explicitly argued or rarely have they explicitly argued that we should put women in these positions,

00:31:28.500 even though they are technically less qualified, but it's worth the risk for the benefit of greater diversity.

00:31:35.600 They've never explicitly made that argument.

00:31:37.840 Instead, they pretend that the standards are not being lowered.

00:31:40.820 So, if that's true, then Hegseth isn't changing anything.

00:31:45.900 There will be one standard.

00:31:47.580 There's one high standard.

00:31:50.200 Anyone who meets it will be allowed in.

00:31:53.420 I mean, isn't that what you guys said we've been doing all along?

00:31:56.820 When the left freaks out about this, think about what they're admitting.

00:32:00.840 All Hegseth, because he said, like, we're not going to rule, you know, we're not going to say that women can't be in these positions.

00:32:07.220 We're going to have one high standard.

00:32:08.640 And you hear that if you're on the left and you go, well, you're discriminating against women. 0.96

00:32:15.560 Women can't meet a high standard. 1.00

00:32:19.920 But then at the same time, you'll say women are exactly the same as men.

00:32:22.500 They can do everything that men can do.

00:32:23.660 So, which is it?

00:32:24.520 Which is it?

00:32:27.020 Well, we know which way it is.

00:32:28.560 And this new policy is as sensible as it gets.

00:32:33.680 It's as fair as it gets.

00:32:35.780 One standard, one high standard.

00:32:37.720 If you pass it, great, you're in.

00:32:39.660 If you don't, too bad.

00:32:40.920 I really appreciate Hegseth's attitude here.

00:32:48.060 This should be the attitude of any leader, especially someone leading our nation's military.

00:32:54.540 And the attitude should be, okay, if you don't meet the standard, like, that's your problem.

00:32:59.900 Well, what if we end up with a force that's, you know, 96% male?

00:33:07.620 Okay, well, then those are the people that met the standard.

00:33:10.740 Great.

00:33:12.260 Whatever we end up with, those are the people who met the standard.

00:33:15.380 So, who cares?

00:33:16.280 Now, granted, I would be in favor of just flat out banning women from combat roles entirely. 0.98

00:33:23.680 Even the small minority, the very, very small minority who can live up to, you know, this policy of equal high standards.

00:33:31.660 I would still, if it were up to me, I would still exclude them.

00:33:36.300 Because I think on moral and ethical grounds, women just simply should not be in combat. 1.00

00:33:40.980 The fact that they're too physically weak to do the job is part of the reason why they shouldn't be in combat.

00:33:47.080 It's a big part of the reason.

00:33:49.420 But the overarching reason is that they're women. 1.00

00:33:53.140 And women, it's just not right to have women in these positions. 1.00

00:33:59.840 It's not suited.

00:34:01.580 You know, it's not proper to have women in these positions. 1.00

00:34:08.020 But I think Hegseth is approaching this in a sensible way.

00:34:10.980 And the end result will be almost exactly the same anyway.

00:34:15.280 So, I think it's great.

00:34:17.060 And it's even better when you consider the freakout that is going to happen, has been happening.

00:34:25.380 Where you're going to have all these people accidentally admitting that women can't live up to, you know, high standards in this sort of context.

00:34:35.660 Here's a story from our friends up north.

00:34:40.980 This is out of Quebec, Canada.

00:34:46.000 And, you know, nothing good comes out of Quebec.

00:34:49.340 No exception in this case.

00:34:51.100 Listen.

00:34:51.980 For the last seven years, Jonathan Bédard, Eric Leblanc and Justin Maheu have been waiting to become parents together.

00:35:00.500 Something that officially happened yesterday.

00:35:03.000 She's perfect, of course.

00:35:04.640 Like any, she's curious, she's energetic.

00:35:07.260 She loves to play.

00:35:08.180 She loves to jump. 0.99

00:35:08.980 She loves to dance.

00:35:10.160 They adopted their three-year-old through Quebec's youth protection services.

00:35:14.220 But first had to be approved as foster parents.

00:35:17.420 Something that required a lot of work and openness, they say, to their relationship.

00:35:22.560 We had a lot of things to go through in order to be able to be, to have that accreditation.

00:35:28.800 And it's through that process that they learned that we are a little different because we're three, but we're not different from any other family.

00:35:36.120 Some other Canadian provinces, including Ontario and British Columbia, legally recognize more than two parents.

00:35:43.020 Quebec does not.

00:35:44.400 Last April, a Quebec Superior Court judge ruled the government has a year to modify the civil code to allow a child to have more than two recognized parents,

00:35:53.720 saying the current situation is unconstitutional and violates the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms since it discriminates against different family models.

00:36:03.860 Yes, unconstitutional.

00:36:05.540 It is unconstitutional to not allow three men to have a baby. 0.86

00:36:12.380 So nature itself is unconstitutional, apparently.

00:36:16.740 Nature already prohibits three men, two men, any number of men from having babies.

00:36:23.620 Nature has already decreed that men cannot start families on their own.

00:36:29.600 Neither can women. 1.00

00:36:30.180 So I guess nature is infringing on the rights of the LGBT community.

00:36:36.820 And this is the difference, by the way, between the traditional understanding of human rights, the American understanding, and the leftist version.

00:36:44.660 Because the original idea was that human rights belong to us by our nature, endowed by God.

00:36:52.780 And so when I say that nature has decreed it as so, this is what I mean.

00:36:59.560 It's our human nature, endowed by God, created by God.

00:37:04.600 But the leftist idea would say that our rights stand in opposition to nature.

00:37:13.220 We get our rights not from nature, but against nature, to contravene nature.

00:37:21.180 So it's the opposite.

00:37:22.780 It's the opposite of what was intended.

00:37:24.760 It's a subversion.

00:37:26.460 So where does the right for three men to have a baby come from, exactly? 0.94

00:37:33.240 Where do you get this right?

00:37:35.920 Now, the answer they'll give is they'll say, oh, the Constitution.

00:37:40.140 But it's not in there, okay, first of all.

00:37:42.540 Well, honestly, I don't know much about the Canadian Constitution.

00:37:45.880 But that's irrelevant anyway, because what I know for sure is that if a change was made to the Constitution,

00:37:51.440 anywhere, including in Canada, to prohibit gay couples or gay throuples or gay quadruples from adopting, 0.88

00:38:04.840 the left would say that gays are having their rights violated in that case.

00:38:10.160 But if the right allegedly comes from the Constitution and then it's removed from the Constitution,

00:38:15.440 well, they can't say their rights are being violated because it's not because you said your rights from the Constitution.

00:38:19.740 Well, it's not in the Constitution anymore.

00:38:20.940 And so end of discussion.

00:38:24.040 So as I've argued, they are appealing to an authority above and beyond the Constitution.

00:38:32.060 Whether they admit it or not, they are still appealing to an authority above and beyond that.

00:38:38.500 What authority exactly?

00:38:39.760 Well, that's the question they can't answer.

00:38:44.340 They won't answer.

00:38:46.560 And now we're left with this.

00:38:47.920 We're left with three men adopting a baby.

00:38:49.500 And this kind of abomination was totally foreseeable.

00:38:52.800 It's the reason why gay adoption should never have been allowed at all in any configuration for any number of partners. 1.00

00:39:03.540 And yet there are still conservatives who don't understand this.

00:39:08.080 You know, I was on Tucker's show a few months ago.

00:39:11.980 And as you may remember, we talked about gay adoption.

00:39:14.500 And I think I think I think we started this.

00:39:17.300 I think Tucker, we started the show with him.

00:39:19.560 He threw that at me right out of the gate, which was great. 0.95

00:39:23.660 And I said, of course, I'm against it.

00:39:25.320 And I had people on the right, attacking me for that, criticizing me for that.

00:39:33.200 You know, well, here you go, guys.

00:39:35.500 Congratulations.

00:39:38.620 Like this, this, this, you know, this.

00:39:40.920 No, don't.

00:39:41.560 Don't turn around now. 0.76

00:39:42.900 OK, if you were getting on my case, because I said we shouldn't have gay adoption. 0.99

00:39:45.480 Don't turn around now and say, well, this is too far.

00:39:47.920 I don't agree with this.

00:39:52.020 If you're in favor of gay adoption.

00:39:54.960 You don't get to complain about this.

00:39:57.180 You don't get to.

00:39:59.180 OK, I won't allow it.

00:40:01.160 You're I it is disallowed.

00:40:03.240 It's prohibited.

00:40:05.220 You support this.

00:40:06.440 If you support gay adoption, you support this.

00:40:08.920 That video we just saw three men adopting a baby.

00:40:11.680 You support it.

00:40:13.320 You do.

00:40:14.420 You may not know you support it. 0.93

00:40:16.200 Because you're not smart enough to even understand your own positions.

00:40:20.200 But you do support it.

00:40:23.380 I'll tell you why you support it.

00:40:25.160 Because there's not a single argument, not a single argument in favor of gay adoption.

00:40:31.920 That would not also be a defense of three men adopting a baby.

00:40:38.660 And the other way is true, too.

00:40:40.200 There's not a single argument against three men adopting a baby.

00:40:44.260 That wouldn't also be an argument against two men adopting a baby.

00:40:50.620 That's really the point here.

00:40:51.640 So anyone who's tried to and there are a lot of people on the left, too, not on the left and and and but even some on the certainly on the left and some on the right.

00:41:02.560 Who try to draw this line, you know, they're all in favor of gay adoption. 0.97

00:41:06.360 If somebody like me goes out and says, no, I don't think two men should be allowed. 0.98

00:41:08.900 I don't I think they should be legally barred from adopting a baby.

00:41:11.820 If they hear that, they'll say, oh, that's bigoted.

00:41:13.640 How dare.

00:41:14.020 What is this?

00:41:14.740 This is the year 2025.

00:41:15.880 How could you say such a thing?

00:41:16.880 And then they see this and they'll say, well, that this what's going on here.

00:41:23.960 Well, go finish that thought.

00:41:26.160 Go ahead.

00:41:28.620 Well, what's your problem?

00:41:31.160 Why shouldn't three men adopt a baby? 0.87

00:41:32.960 What's the issue exactly?

00:41:34.500 Can you finish the thought?

00:41:36.280 What is your argument against it?

00:41:37.760 I really want to hear.

00:41:38.620 What is your argument against three men adopting a baby? 0.72

00:41:43.200 Or four men or five?

00:41:46.880 OK, what if what if you had a what if you had a whole. 0.86

00:41:51.700 A whole squad of gay men going in there, five of them to adopt a baby. 0.56

00:41:58.080 Why shouldn't we allow that? 0.90

00:42:01.100 And this is now for a lot of you listening, this is not a stumper at all.

00:42:04.480 You can easily explain why.

00:42:06.160 What I'm what I'm saying specifically is if you think gay adoption, two men adopting a baby is fine, but you don't like this. 0.99

00:42:13.820 Well, then for you, I would like you to explain why the three men can't adopt.

00:42:20.640 What is the argument?

00:42:22.680 Because the problem for you is that the only argument against it.

00:42:25.860 The only one is that three men adopting a baby is unnatural, disordered, and unhealthy. 0.99

00:42:38.920 That's the whole argument.

00:42:41.180 That's it.

00:42:41.880 That's the entire argument.

00:42:43.840 Babies are not meant to be raised and parented by three men.

00:42:48.340 That is not meant to happen.

00:42:50.700 That is not a that's not how these things are supposed to work.

00:42:53.520 That's the entire argument.

00:42:55.080 There is no other argument but that.

00:42:57.440 But we don't.

00:42:58.060 And it's a it's a very good argument.

00:42:59.480 It's the only argument.

00:43:00.500 It's the only correct argument.

00:43:01.860 It's the only argument you need.

00:43:03.320 Well, the problem for you is that that is also the argument against two men adopting a baby.

00:43:14.220 Same applies.

00:43:16.500 It's unnatural, clearly.

00:43:19.800 Therefore, disordered.

00:43:22.360 Therefore, unhealthy.

00:43:25.160 And it's not meant to be.

00:43:28.120 I'm not speculating.

00:43:29.400 That's not my opinion that it's not meant to be.

00:43:31.440 It's clearly not meant to be.

00:43:33.320 In the entire history of the human race.

00:43:37.740 Going back into the past and stretching out into the into the unknown future.

00:43:41.980 There has never been and will never be two men who naturally conceive a child.

00:43:46.500 It's impossible.

00:43:50.360 Babies are not meant to be raised by three men and they're not meant to be raised by two men.

00:43:57.740 So, you know, that's why it doesn't make any sense to say, well, I'm OK with two men raising a child, but three men.

00:44:04.320 That's out of bounds.

00:44:07.680 Why is it out of bounds?

00:44:09.360 Why is it somehow more absurd for three men to raise a baby than two men? 0.80

00:44:15.340 Can you explain that?

00:44:17.200 It's the same thing.

00:44:18.100 And this is a lesson that everybody should understand by now.

00:44:23.880 And I get it.

00:44:24.840 I'm not.

00:44:25.280 Again, if you're on the left, I'm not even talking to you on this.

00:44:29.760 If you're on the right and you don't get this by now.

00:44:34.340 Then I don't know.

00:44:35.780 You're a hopeless case.

00:44:36.720 You either draw the line at the one sensible, coherent place to draw it.

00:44:45.280 Or you have no line at all.

00:44:50.200 That's it.

00:44:51.560 And on all of these issues, there is only one.

00:44:55.500 If you want to draw a line, there's only one sensible, discernible, objective place to draw it.

00:45:07.180 And if you've decided to push the line back, to push the fence back, what you're going to find is that there's nowhere else.

00:45:15.280 You've torn that fence up and there's nowhere else to put the post back in and rebuild that fence.

00:45:19.840 And that's where we are now.

00:45:25.660 All right.

00:45:26.160 We have another fun statue controversy.

00:45:29.700 These are always a barrel of laughs.

00:45:33.860 USA Today reports,

00:45:34.800 Tina Turner was simply the best, but fans are less than impressed with a new statue paying tribute to the late rock singer.

00:45:42.360 A 10-foot bronze statue of Turner, who died in May 2023 at the age of 83, was unveiled in the singer's hometown of Brownsville, Tennessee on Saturday.

00:45:50.700 During the city's annual Tina Turner Heritage Days celebration, the monument designed by Atlanta-based sculptor Fred Ajanoga depicts Turner mid-performance

00:46:01.260 as she strikes a confident pose in a mini dress and high heels. 1.00

00:46:05.940 Ajanoga said he aimed to reflect Turner's ability to move dynamically on stage,

00:46:10.080 the way she grasped the microphone with her index finger pointing out,

00:46:13.540 and her hairdo, which the artist likened to a lion's mane.

00:46:17.040 However, the tribute did not receive a warm reception from Turner's fans,

00:46:21.860 many of whom took to social media to criticize the statue's design and its questionable resemblance to the real-life Turner.

00:46:27.180 Okay, so people didn't like the statue.

00:46:29.660 Let's see if they're being harsh or not.

00:46:31.740 We'll put the photos up on the screen.

00:46:34.820 And as you can see, no, they're not being harsh at all.

00:46:37.580 If anything, they're not being harsh enough.

00:46:40.380 We've seen a lot of really bad statues in recent years.

00:46:42.980 This one might be somehow the worst.

00:46:44.880 I don't know how that's possible, but they pulled it off.

00:46:49.680 Fred Ajanoga, congratulations to the artist.

00:46:53.040 I mean, you pulled off.

00:46:53.920 You somehow made the worst one.

00:46:55.800 Like, if I showed you these pictures, and keep the pictures up on the screen.

00:46:58.680 Okay, don't take them off.

00:46:59.940 Actually, zoom in on the face.

00:47:02.780 Let's see the face.

00:47:04.920 If I showed you this, and I didn't tell you who it was supposed to be,

00:47:09.500 you would never guess Tina Turner.

00:47:11.680 You wouldn't be able to guess.

00:47:14.880 You'd guess that maybe this was supposed to be.

00:47:18.640 The first thing that came to mind when I saw it, for some reason,

00:47:21.260 was a sideshow Bob from The Simpsons. 0.94

00:47:25.520 But retarded. 1.00

00:47:27.360 Like a retarded sideshow Bob from The Simpsons. 1.00

00:47:31.360 Or maybe, I mean, this is a weird one.

00:47:33.220 Like, maybe a young, I don't know, from a certain angle,

00:47:36.680 it's kind of a young Sean Astin with an afro,

00:47:40.400 dressed in drag,

00:47:41.980 with smaller breasts. 1.00

00:47:46.660 Actually, you know who this kind of looks like?

00:47:47.960 Okay, so this is a...

00:47:49.680 This is an even weirder one.

00:47:51.960 This is a deep cut.

00:47:53.240 This is obscure.

00:47:54.780 But it kind of looks like...

00:47:58.140 Who was that chick from SNL, like, 25 years ago? 1.00

00:48:01.580 She did the... 0.98

00:48:02.340 She was in the Will Ferrell skits,

00:48:04.760 where they were cheerleaders, I think. 0.99

00:48:08.500 Like...

00:48:10.500 Cherry Oteri.

00:48:13.460 Cherry Oteri.

00:48:14.320 Cherry Oteri.

00:48:15.460 Cherry Oteri.

00:48:16.460 What is it?

00:48:16.740 What is it?

00:48:17.040 Not Sherry.

00:48:18.340 Cherry Oteri was their name, I think.

00:48:20.240 It kind of looks like Cherry Oteri playing a...

00:48:22.880 Like, if that...

00:48:24.600 If I'm thinking of the same one,

00:48:25.880 that woman from SNL playing Tina Turner

00:48:28.360 in a 1998 SNL skit

00:48:31.120 is sort of what that looks like.

00:48:34.740 I don't know.

00:48:36.320 It definitely doesn't look like Tina Turner.

00:48:37.740 That I know for sure.

00:48:40.320 It maybe looks like Tina Turner 0.70

00:48:42.040 if she was born with, like,

00:48:43.260 fetal alcohol syndrome.

00:48:45.200 But it does not look like

00:48:46.580 the Tina Turner who existed.

00:48:48.120 And, of course, this is just the latest 0.76

00:48:49.860 really god-awful, ugly statue 0.80

00:48:52.180 to be erected around the country. 0.77

00:48:54.380 There have been many examples.

00:48:55.760 We don't need to go through the list.

00:48:56.920 We've talked about many of them on the show.

00:48:59.360 Pretty much every statue

00:49:00.820 that has been unveiled anywhere in public

00:49:03.020 at any point this century

00:49:05.000 has been about as ugly as this one.

00:49:08.560 Maybe a little bit less so,

00:49:11.080 but bad.

00:49:12.800 Has there been a beautiful statue

00:49:14.460 made anywhere?

00:49:18.500 And I don't think there is.

00:49:19.800 It is a sad and disturbing thing.

00:49:22.860 I mean, it's hilarious also.

00:49:25.340 Provides a lot of great comic relief.

00:49:27.840 But it is sad.

00:49:29.060 It's a tragedy.

00:49:35.620 See, we like to think

00:49:37.200 that we've progressed,

00:49:38.380 that we've gotten more sophisticated.

00:49:41.060 And in some respects, we have.

00:49:42.660 But in a lot of very important respects,

00:49:44.320 we have regressed.

00:49:46.080 And that's really obvious

00:49:48.080 when you consider art,

00:49:49.500 and in particular,

00:49:50.220 when you think of

00:49:51.200 some of the most timeless

00:49:53.100 and ancient art forms

00:49:54.900 like sculpting,

00:49:56.500 you know, making statues.

00:49:58.520 And that's where you see

00:50:01.500 that we have just lost.

00:50:02.460 I mean, there are a million examples

00:50:03.780 I could give

00:50:04.340 to highlight the contrast.

00:50:05.720 But just consider this statue.

00:50:07.760 Let's put this up on the screen.

00:50:09.120 This is

00:50:09.540 an ancient Roman statue

00:50:13.220 called the Laocoon

00:50:14.380 or Laocoon and his sons.

00:50:17.460 Now, just to give you an idea

00:50:18.260 of how old this statue is.

00:50:19.800 This statue was discovered

00:50:21.380 in the 1500s,

00:50:25.140 500 years ago.

00:50:26.460 It was an ancient relic

00:50:28.140 lost to the sands of time,

00:50:30.880 discovered in the 1500s.

00:50:34.280 It was made,

00:50:36.060 they think,

00:50:36.800 probably about 2,000 years ago.

00:50:39.720 2,000 years ago.

00:50:41.780 And you look at that,

00:50:42.960 you see the detail,

00:50:44.060 you see everything about it.

00:50:46.420 And you see how,

00:50:47.780 I mean,

00:50:47.960 the guy who made this

00:50:49.700 Tina Turner statue

00:50:50.940 said that he wanted

00:50:52.620 to make it dynamic,

00:50:53.800 wanted to make it look

00:50:54.560 like she was moving.

00:50:56.200 And he didn't pull it off at all.

00:50:58.700 Well, you look at this statue

00:50:59.520 made 2,000 years ago,

00:51:00.800 it is dynamic.

00:51:01.940 Like, it is,

00:51:02.540 it's movement.

00:51:03.440 You see the movement.

00:51:04.460 You see the,

00:51:05.380 every detail of the,

00:51:06.880 the body,

00:51:07.300 the muscles,

00:51:08.700 the everything.

00:51:09.720 anatomically,

00:51:11.440 it's like flawless

00:51:13.140 and,

00:51:13.660 and the face,

00:51:14.640 everything.

00:51:16.740 So 2,000 years ago,

00:51:18.320 people were capable

00:51:19.220 of creating this kind of art

00:51:20.740 at a,

00:51:21.060 at a level

00:51:21.660 that nobody on earth,

00:51:23.260 not a single human

00:51:24.780 on this planet

00:51:25.460 can even get close

00:51:27.880 to these days.

00:51:28.780 We,

00:51:28.960 we cannot get close

00:51:29.840 to emulating

00:51:30.460 any of this.

00:51:32.300 I think we've simply

00:51:33.360 lost the skill.

00:51:34.240 It's gone.

00:51:34.660 It's extinct.

00:51:35.220 And it probably,

00:51:38.840 that's the really sad thing

00:51:40.860 is that it's probably

00:51:41.560 gone forever.

00:51:43.260 Because these are skills

00:51:44.580 that are passed down.

00:51:46.840 And,

00:51:47.120 you know,

00:51:48.820 a lot of the great artists

00:51:50.600 through history

00:51:51.880 have been under

00:51:53.480 the tutelage

00:51:54.240 of another great artist.

00:51:56.040 And that's how they learn.

00:51:57.260 They learn how to do this.

00:52:00.540 Because it's not,

00:52:01.600 it's obviously,

00:52:02.160 it's not,

00:52:02.620 it's not obvious.

00:52:04.780 I mean,

00:52:04.900 it's all like,

00:52:05.640 from our perspective,

00:52:06.300 I look at these statues now

00:52:07.560 and as I said,

00:52:08.760 you could,

00:52:09.080 like there's hundreds

00:52:09.820 of examples.

00:52:10.480 You could,

00:52:10.560 you could pull up

00:52:10.980 any statue

00:52:12.560 that was made

00:52:13.080 500 years ago,

00:52:14.360 1,000 years ago,

00:52:15.100 2,000 years ago.

00:52:16.600 And,

00:52:17.020 you see this,

00:52:18.580 but you look at it now,

00:52:19.320 it's almost like,

00:52:19.920 it looks like magic.

00:52:21.260 I can't even conceive,

00:52:22.420 none of us can conceive

00:52:23.460 of how you would do that.

00:52:25.020 How do you take

00:52:26.380 a block of stone

00:52:28.400 and make it look like that?

00:52:30.320 I don't,

00:52:30.660 I,

00:52:30.900 it's,

00:52:31.480 it may as well be

00:52:32.480 a magic trick.

00:52:33.540 I mean,

00:52:33.920 that's how,

00:52:34.540 out of our grasp

00:52:36.780 it is.

00:52:38.100 And,

00:52:38.640 that's because

00:52:39.660 the skills are passed down

00:52:40.900 and they were passed down

00:52:43.760 by the ancients,

00:52:45.120 passed down for centuries,

00:52:46.200 for millennia,

00:52:47.180 until it got to us.

00:52:50.260 And we dropped it.

00:52:51.740 We just,

00:52:52.580 we took this precious skill

00:52:55.340 and we dropped it

00:52:56.220 on the ground

00:52:56.760 and it shattered

00:52:57.640 like glass

00:52:58.400 and now it's just gone.

00:53:00.980 And we can't create art

00:53:02.300 like they did

00:53:02.820 a hundred years ago

00:53:03.560 or 500 years ago

00:53:04.620 or 2,000 years ago.

00:53:07.880 I mean,

00:53:08.340 I was thinking about this.

00:53:09.140 If you want to find

00:53:09.800 a historical analog now,

00:53:11.820 like if you want to

00:53:12.900 find something in history,

00:53:14.940 a monument,

00:53:16.240 a statue,

00:53:16.880 a sculpt,

00:53:17.300 a sculpture

00:53:17.700 that looks like something

00:53:19.840 we could do today,

00:53:20.800 you got to go back

00:53:22.160 way further

00:53:23.540 than 2,000 years.

00:53:25.360 You got to go,

00:53:26.200 I mean,

00:53:26.940 we'll put this up

00:53:27.480 on the screen.

00:53:27.920 So this is a Venus statue,

00:53:29.600 not really a statue.

00:53:30.640 It's a small,

00:53:31.280 it's a sculpture of,

00:53:32.500 as you can see,

00:53:33.080 a large woman

00:53:34.260 is like a fertility,

00:53:36.580 a goddess,

00:53:37.040 a fertility thing.

00:53:38.600 And this is about

00:53:40.620 the level

00:53:41.360 that we can achieve

00:53:43.700 in modern times.

00:53:44.600 I think we're about

00:53:45.560 at this level.

00:53:48.040 And this thing was made

00:53:49.360 in the Paleolithic era.

00:53:51.120 Okay,

00:53:51.320 this thing was made

00:53:52.040 40,000 years ago.

00:53:53.640 So we are,

00:53:54.760 our artistic talents

00:53:56.080 in some respects

00:53:57.100 have regressed

00:53:58.120 by about 40,000 years.

00:53:59.920 You could argue.

00:54:02.600 We are a stone age

00:54:04.380 in our artistic abilities.

00:54:06.640 And I would say

00:54:07.600 about the same

00:54:08.200 for language,

00:54:09.860 communication abilities.

00:54:12.380 I think we're about

00:54:13.100 at stone age level.

00:54:14.880 We've regressed that far.

00:54:18.120 And,

00:54:18.420 so I say that,

00:54:21.300 you know,

00:54:21.720 it's gone,

00:54:24.380 it's gone for good.

00:54:25.340 But maybe that's not,

00:54:26.640 it's not gone for good.

00:54:27.420 It might just take us

00:54:28.000 another 40,000 years

00:54:28.840 to get back there.

00:54:31.220 If humanity still exists,

00:54:33.000 which it probably won't.

00:54:33.860 So,

00:54:34.780 if you feel like

00:54:35.400 your regular morning coffee

00:54:36.640 just isn't doing it anymore,

00:55:59.500 This October,

00:56:00.260 we're giving

00:56:00.660 Daily Wire Plus members

00:56:01.680 more than ever before,

00:56:02.780 including must-see documentaries

00:56:04.020 like USS Cole,

00:56:05.140 Al-Qaeda's Strike 0.66

00:56:06.220 Before 9-11

00:56:06.900 premieres October 10th

00:56:08.200 exclusively on Daily Wire Plus.

00:56:09.860 I've got your first look

00:56:10.740 right now.

00:56:11.220 Check it out.

00:56:11.540 Al-Awali told us

00:56:12.880 Al-Qaeda is planning 0.97

00:56:14.140 to attack

00:56:14.780 a U.S. Navy ship

00:56:16.060 as it's refueling

00:56:17.040 in the port of Aiden.

00:56:18.300 There was a lot of warning

00:56:19.340 out there to the ships.

00:56:20.900 Did the coal get

00:56:21.560 that information?

00:56:22.740 I can't tell you.

00:56:25.260 Bin Laden was getting

00:56:26.820 very antsy

00:56:27.520 what could be next.

00:56:30.260 I don't think we missed

00:56:31.460 any specific threats.

00:56:33.920 It wasn't if it was

00:56:35.120 going to happen,

00:56:35.660 it was when the United States

00:56:36.740 was going to be attacked.

00:56:37.840 They were walking

00:56:38.800 into a trap.

00:56:39.660 I saw a boat

00:56:41.140 coming at us.

00:56:42.020 They were close enough

00:56:42.700 that I could see them

00:56:43.500 smiling and waving.

00:56:45.160 Then the explosion happened.

00:56:46.780 Two men in it

00:56:47.600 was apparently not seen

00:56:48.820 as a threat.

00:56:49.360 It may have been

00:56:49.820 impossible to prevent.

00:56:51.500 Osama bin Laden

00:56:52.260 had essentially declared

00:56:53.580 war against the United States.

00:56:55.500 Certainly emboldened Al-Qaeda. 0.97

00:56:57.560 Why were we even

00:56:58.520 operating in that port?

00:56:59.660 What was the intelligence

00:57:00.680 community doing?

00:57:01.880 No one connected

00:57:02.540 all the dots

00:57:03.360 until it was too late.

00:57:04.340 People in the U.S.

00:57:05.200 didn't comprehend

00:57:05.920 that there was an organization

00:57:07.480 called Al-Qaeda.

00:57:08.640 People living in caves,

00:57:11.820 basements,

00:57:12.560 who actively sought 0.82

00:57:14.120 to kill Americans. 0.81

00:57:16.680 I think our government 1.00

00:57:17.500 certainly had enough

00:57:18.900 of the information

00:57:19.500 to have done something.

00:57:20.520 They were focused

00:57:21.240 totally on us.

00:57:22.220 No one was looking

00:57:23.080 up the chain of command.

00:57:24.120 We had an opportunity

00:57:25.020 to disrupt

00:57:25.960 what became 9-11.

00:57:27.320 USS Cole

00:57:31.380 Al-Qaeda strike

00:57:32.900 before 9-11.

00:57:34.640 A three-part series

00:57:36.260 premieres October 10th

00:57:37.980 on Daily Wire Plus.

00:57:41.260 USS Cole

00:57:42.140 Al-Qaeda strike

00:57:43.120 before 9-11

00:57:43.940 premieres October 10th

00:57:45.320 only on Daily Wire Plus.

00:57:46.620 If you're not a member yet,

00:57:47.700 well, you can fix that now

00:57:55.700 Now let's get to

00:57:56.540 our daily cancellation.

00:58:03.780 Well, it's official

00:58:04.720 for the seventh straight year.

00:58:06.700 A white guy

00:58:07.620 will not be headlining

00:58:08.720 the Super Bowl

00:58:09.240 halftime show

00:58:10.000 unless you count

00:58:10.880 Eminem's brief appearance

00:58:12.080 in the 2022 halftime show

00:58:13.460 with Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg,

00:58:14.600 which you really shouldn't.

00:58:15.880 The last white performers 0.94

00:58:17.180 to headline the Super Bowl

00:58:18.200 were Maroon 5

00:58:19.280 back in 2019.

00:58:20.580 And since then,

00:58:21.140 we've been treated

00:58:22.180 to performances

00:58:22.920 by luminaries

00:58:24.640 like Usher,

00:58:26.040 Kendrick Lamar,

00:58:26.840 Rihanna,

00:58:27.440 The Weeknd,

00:58:28.780 and so on,

00:58:29.980 it's as if the NFL

00:58:30.940 couldn't find a single

00:58:32.180 white person

00:58:32.900 singing actual music

00:58:33.880 anywhere in the entire country

00:58:34.900 for the better part

00:58:35.700 of a decade.

00:58:36.700 You don't need to

00:58:37.540 be a calculus professor

00:58:38.840 to understand

00:58:39.440 the statistical implications here.

00:58:41.100 The NFL has made

00:58:42.240 the deliberate decision

00:58:43.160 to basically discriminate

00:58:45.280 against white performers

00:58:46.620 in the name of diversity.

00:58:47.800 It's the same reason 0.50

00:58:48.680 that they still insist 0.99

00:58:49.500 on having those dumb slogans 0.99

00:58:50.900 in the end zone. 0.99

00:58:52.000 The league is captured

00:58:53.320 by,

00:58:53.920 at the corporate level anyway, 0.51

00:58:55.420 by anti-white leftists 0.50

00:58:57.360 who,

00:58:57.920 unlike the vast majority

00:58:58.700 of the country,

00:58:59.860 haven't progressed

00:59:00.820 beyond the George Floyd era.

00:59:03.600 And as a result,

00:59:04.240 year after year,

00:59:04.700 the Super Bowl halftime performances

00:59:05.920 haven't resembled music

00:59:07.460 so much as they've resembled

00:59:08.640 the barely coherent ramblings

00:59:10.780 of the local strip mall vagrants.

00:59:13.680 Half of what Kendrick Lamar said

00:59:14.960 was incomprehensible

00:59:15.760 in the last Super Bowl halftime show.

00:59:17.340 To the extent that he had

00:59:18.340 a big moment

00:59:18.980 during his performance,

00:59:19.720 it was to accuse

00:59:20.540 another rapper 0.95

00:59:21.240 of being a pedophile. 0.94

00:59:22.840 So we're talking about, 0.84

00:59:23.960 you know,

00:59:25.100 real fine art here.

00:59:26.520 With each passing year,

00:59:27.700 the performances

00:59:28.200 become even more painful,

00:59:29.660 almost as if they're

00:59:30.380 sort of a form

00:59:31.000 of ritual humiliation.

00:59:32.400 And that said,

00:59:32.860 through all of this,

00:59:34.020 at least the NFL

00:59:34.640 had the decency

00:59:35.220 to ensure

00:59:35.720 that the performers

00:59:36.360 could still speak

00:59:37.220 the English language,

00:59:38.980 at least in a nominal sense.

00:59:41.280 That was a very low bar,

00:59:42.740 admittedly,

00:59:43.160 but the NFL executives

00:59:44.060 were able to clear it.

00:59:46.600 Even though you couldn't

00:59:47.480 understand what the performers

00:59:48.620 were saying half the time,

00:59:49.660 at least in the abstract,

00:59:51.320 they were technically

00:59:52.760 reciting lyrics

00:59:53.620 that have meaning

00:59:54.740 in the English language.

00:59:56.820 At least superficially,

00:59:58.000 the NFL was still pretending

00:59:58.920 to be an American league,

01:00:00.720 even if they,

01:00:01.660 you know,

01:00:02.280 are increasingly hosting

01:00:03.440 games overseas.

01:00:04.460 But that now has changed.

01:00:05.780 As you may have seen,

01:00:07.140 the NFL has just announced

01:00:08.100 that Benito Antonio Martinez

01:00:10.320 Ocasio,

01:00:11.620 better known by his

01:00:12.460 stage name,

01:00:13.320 Bad Bunny,

01:00:14.580 will headline the

01:00:15.320 2026 Super Bowl halftime show.

01:00:16.960 And here's the NFL's

01:00:18.320 big reveal.

01:00:19.000 Watch.

01:00:19.220 Well, there it is.

01:00:45.720 It's official.

01:00:46.240 Puerto Rico's finest

01:00:47.300 Bad Bunny

01:00:48.060 will be the Apple Music

01:00:49.220 Super Bowl 60 halftime show

01:00:50.920 in February

01:00:51.760 on NBC and Peacock.

01:00:54.080 So there's the whole

01:00:55.140 Puerto Rican

01:00:56.180 Humpty Dumpty

01:00:57.000 aesthetic going on.

01:00:58.020 He's not saying anything

01:00:58.940 because he can't speak English.

01:01:00.680 None of his songs

01:01:01.220 are in English either.

01:01:02.680 And then the reporter

01:01:03.360 in English tells us

01:01:04.360 that we should be excited

01:01:05.380 by this development.

01:01:06.140 We should be thrilled

01:01:06.820 to hear songs

01:01:08.240 like this one,

01:01:09.040 apparently.

01:01:09.320 There are like,

01:01:30.220 you know,

01:01:30.500 chain restaurants

01:01:31.540 with their Applebee's

01:01:33.760 bars with more talented

01:01:35.340 musicians than this.

01:01:36.520 But we're told

01:01:37.900 that we're supposed

01:01:38.280 to be impressed

01:01:38.800 by Antonio,

01:01:39.720 which is why

01:01:40.260 he's constantly

01:01:40.860 on SNL,

01:01:41.900 streaming services,

01:01:42.760 the Super Bowl,

01:01:43.680 all over the place,

01:01:44.740 being promoted relentlessly

01:01:46.500 because he represents

01:01:47.660 demographic replacement.

01:01:49.820 You're not supposed

01:01:50.380 to say that,

01:01:50.920 but that's true.

01:01:52.020 They want to send 0.99

01:01:52.780 the message that

01:01:53.480 America is not

01:01:54.420 for English-speaking

01:01:55.460 Americans anymore. 0.93

01:01:56.900 And it's not hard

01:01:57.720 to identify

01:01:58.180 who specifically

01:01:58.920 is making this decision.

01:01:59.980 The NFL has

01:02:00.560 the ultimate veto power,

01:02:01.760 but from what I could tell,

01:02:02.720 Jay-Z is the primary

01:02:03.820 decision maker

01:02:04.400 behind all the selections

01:02:05.760 for Super Bowl

01:02:06.460 halftime shows.

01:02:07.620 His company,

01:02:08.140 Rock Nation,

01:02:08.720 has had an exclusive deal

01:02:09.720 with the NFL

01:02:10.200 since 2019,

01:02:11.720 which just so happens

01:02:12.480 to be the last year

01:02:14.280 that any white people

01:02:16.560 were allowed to appear

01:02:17.360 on the stage.

01:02:18.940 Also,

01:02:19.320 2019,

01:02:19.740 Rock Nation and the NFL

01:02:20.540 announced the commitment

01:02:21.340 to an Inspire Change

01:02:24.500 social activism campaign,

01:02:26.440 which explicitly advocates

01:02:28.120 for letting criminals

01:02:30.140 out on the street

01:02:31.140 before trial.

01:02:33.200 I'm not making that up,

01:02:33.960 by the way.

01:02:34.440 Look at the fourth

01:02:35.360 bullet point here.

01:02:36.220 This is from the NFL's

01:02:37.080 website,

01:02:37.500 quote,

01:02:38.080 criminal justice reform

01:02:39.080 providing transition support

01:02:40.600 for the formerly incarcerated

01:02:42.080 and advocating

01:02:42.780 for key reforms

01:02:43.720 to the criminal legal system,

01:02:45.240 including pretrial detention.

01:02:48.940 Now,

01:02:49.540 translation,

01:02:50.300 they want criminals

01:02:51.380 to spend as little time

01:02:52.460 in prison as possible.

01:02:53.860 They also want

01:02:54.380 to reform policing,

01:02:55.760 meaning they want

01:02:56.380 to get rid of it.

01:02:57.960 The people who wrote

01:02:58.600 these bullet points

01:02:59.360 are the same people

01:03:00.180 who picked Antonio

01:03:01.000 for the halftime show,

01:03:02.280 so it's a political pick.

01:03:04.480 Period.

01:03:05.420 To be clear,

01:03:05.940 Antonio is not simply

01:03:06.980 a foreigner

01:03:07.380 who can't sing

01:03:08.260 or speak English.

01:03:09.460 He's also a far,

01:03:11.220 far rabid leftist

01:03:12.380 who wears dresses

01:03:13.120 and who,

01:03:14.500 like all leftists,

01:03:15.300 lacks any semblance

01:03:16.080 of self-awareness

01:03:16.800 or shame.

01:03:18.120 It's actually pretty staggering

01:03:19.000 in this case.

01:03:19.760 Just a few days ago,

01:03:20.660 Antonio issued

01:03:21.260 a very clear promise

01:03:22.200 that he wouldn't perform

01:03:23.340 in the United States anymore,

01:03:24.920 supposedly in order

01:03:25.600 to protect his fans

01:03:26.960 from being deported

01:03:27.920 during his shows.

01:03:29.480 He said he's willing

01:03:30.260 to sacrifice millions

01:03:31.140 of dollars in revenue

01:03:32.040 solely to protect criminals

01:03:33.940 from getting rounded up

01:03:35.220 and shipped overseas

01:03:36.020 during his concerts.

01:03:37.520 But now that the NFL called

01:03:38.640 and they backed up

01:03:39.420 a dump truck full of pesos,

01:03:41.480 suddenly Antonio's on board.

01:03:43.420 Suddenly the fans

01:03:44.240 don't matter anymore.

01:03:46.080 He'll be performing

01:03:46.680 at Levi's Stadium

01:03:48.140 in California next year.

01:03:50.660 100%.

01:03:51.140 And even though the state

01:03:52.660 is teaming with illegal aliens 0.90

01:03:54.200 who could be deported

01:03:55.120 at the game.

01:03:56.400 This is from ABC News.

01:03:57.340 Puerto Rican musician

01:04:00.240 Bad Bunny said

01:04:01.020 in an interview

01:04:01.340 that he did not include

01:04:02.560 the United States

01:04:03.140 in the 2025-2026 concert tour

01:04:05.240 because of fear

01:04:06.260 that U.S. Immigration

01:04:07.120 and Customs Enforcement

01:04:08.060 would raid the concert venue.

01:04:10.600 People from the U.S.

01:04:11.560 could come here

01:04:12.280 to see the shows.

01:04:13.560 Latinos and Puerto Ricans

01:04:14.760 of the United States

01:04:16.040 could also travel here

01:04:17.080 or to any part of the world,

01:04:18.600 he told the magazine.

01:04:21.700 But there was the issue

01:04:22.680 that ICE could be outside

01:04:24.280 of my concert venue,

01:04:25.520 and it's something

01:04:26.500 that we were talking about

01:04:27.860 and very concerned about.

01:04:29.340 The musician has previously

01:04:30.140 been critical of ICE operations,

01:04:31.800 which have intensified

01:04:32.500 under U.S. President Donald Trump.

01:04:34.100 He posted an Instagram video

01:04:35.160 in June

01:04:35.580 in which he expressed outrage

01:04:36.820 at federal agents

01:04:37.820 in Puerto Rico

01:04:38.480 for not leaving these people

01:04:40.400 working here alone.

01:04:43.400 Well, you know what this means.

01:04:44.680 ICE has the opportunity 0.91

01:04:45.540 to conduct by far

01:04:46.880 the single most effective,

01:04:48.400 not to mention hilarious,

01:04:49.380 operation in all of ICE history.

01:04:51.640 This has the potential

01:04:52.560 to be even better

01:04:53.380 than deporting

01:04:54.240 Abrego Garcia

01:04:55.160 to a random country

01:04:56.200 in Africa

01:04:56.580 that doesn't even exist.

01:04:58.580 If you've seen the movie

01:04:59.320 Trap,

01:04:59.920 or if you've seen

01:05:00.520 the previews anyway

01:05:01.160 by M. Night Shyamalan,

01:05:03.000 then you know exactly

01:05:04.320 how this could work.

01:05:05.420 Except instead of

01:05:06.200 trying to find

01:05:06.820 one serial killer

01:05:07.780 after they seal off

01:05:09.080 the stadium

01:05:09.480 once the musical number starts,

01:05:11.840 they could just deport

01:05:12.780 everyone in attendance.

01:05:15.820 Now, to be fair,

01:05:17.120 everyone has fair warning

01:05:18.220 from Antonio himself,

01:05:19.340 and they showed up anyway,

01:05:20.880 so they don't get

01:05:22.820 to play the victim.

01:05:24.240 Now, for all we know,

01:05:25.720 maybe that's why

01:05:26.780 Antonio signed on

01:05:27.840 to this gig.

01:05:28.340 It's entirely possible

01:05:29.260 that he's working

01:05:29.900 with DHS

01:05:30.420 as a double agent

01:05:31.460 at this point.

01:05:33.460 Certainly,

01:05:34.020 if I were an illegal alien

01:05:35.340 in California,

01:05:36.640 and I heard a man

01:05:37.960 in a dress

01:05:38.580 using the name

01:05:39.760 Bad Bunny

01:05:40.420 tell me that I'll be

01:05:41.860 deported at one

01:05:42.580 of his shows,

01:05:43.520 only to see him

01:05:44.560 change his mind

01:05:45.280 a few days later

01:05:46.000 and tell me to attend

01:05:47.400 one of his shows,

01:05:49.080 I mean,

01:05:49.400 I'd be a little suspicious.

01:05:52.060 Either he was lying before

01:05:53.220 or he's lying now.

01:05:54.780 And neither option

01:05:55.920 is reassuring.

01:05:57.660 Now, what would be

01:05:58.600 reassuring for the millions

01:05:59.700 of actual Americans

01:06:00.640 who still follow the NFL

01:06:01.760 would be for the league

01:06:03.080 to demonstrate

01:06:03.740 just once

01:06:04.600 that it understands

01:06:06.520 or even likes

01:06:07.180 its own fan base.

01:06:08.860 For the better part

01:06:09.720 of the decade,

01:06:10.340 particularly with the

01:06:11.000 social justice BLM messaging

01:06:12.760 and the, you know,

01:06:14.400 halftime shows,

01:06:15.460 the league has made it clear

01:06:16.640 that it holds

01:06:17.220 most of the country

01:06:18.700 in contempt,

01:06:19.600 solely on the basis

01:06:20.340 of their nationality,

01:06:21.880 their skin color,

01:06:22.580 and also their assumed

01:06:24.160 political views.

01:06:26.520 Now, in various

01:06:27.300 conservative circles,

01:06:28.000 as a result,

01:06:28.680 there have been calls

01:06:29.280 to boycott the NFL,

01:06:30.780 just like we boycotted

01:06:31.620 companies like Target

01:06:32.480 and Bud Light.

01:06:33.700 I have not joined

01:06:34.700 those calls

01:06:35.120 because by and large,

01:06:36.860 as I've argued often,

01:06:38.480 sports are one

01:06:39.880 of the few

01:06:40.700 mainstream ways

01:06:42.460 that Americans

01:06:43.060 can express

01:06:43.900 and celebrate

01:06:44.680 important virtues

01:06:46.620 like meritocracy,

01:06:49.240 masculinity,

01:06:50.820 competition,

01:06:52.400 and sports

01:06:52.920 are an important

01:06:53.960 part of culture.

01:06:56.460 You know,

01:06:56.880 that's going,

01:06:58.600 every culture

01:06:59.180 in history

01:06:59.580 has had sports.

01:07:01.160 It's important,

01:07:01.560 just like art

01:07:02.060 is an important

01:07:02.500 part of culture.

01:07:04.140 And despite the best

01:07:05.200 efforts of the league

01:07:06.320 executives,

01:07:06.900 that remains the case.

01:07:07.820 Professional football,

01:07:08.700 in my view,

01:07:09.820 is an important

01:07:10.460 cultural institution

01:07:11.300 in this country.

01:07:13.460 So our focus,

01:07:14.700 therefore,

01:07:14.980 should be eradicating

01:07:16.120 the left-wing propaganda 0.98

01:07:17.220 and anti-white messaging

01:07:18.480 that the league

01:07:19.440 continues to promulgate

01:07:20.540 as we've eradicated it

01:07:22.400 from so many other

01:07:23.140 cultural institutions

01:07:23.940 in recent years.

01:07:25.280 The backlash

01:07:26.080 to this upcoming

01:07:26.860 halftime show

01:07:27.580 makes it very clear

01:07:28.420 that, you know,

01:07:29.740 we're making progress

01:07:32.360 in that direction.

01:07:33.820 And now that backlash

01:07:35.020 must intensify

01:07:35.800 until finally

01:07:36.520 an American,

01:07:38.320 an actual American

01:07:39.060 who speaks English,

01:07:40.780 performs at the Super Bowl.

01:07:42.180 And that is why 0.68

01:07:42.840 the anti-white 0.98

01:07:43.640 and anti-American executives 0.94

01:07:44.740 at the NFL,

01:07:45.660 along with Antonio,

01:07:46.740 the man in the dress,

01:07:47.500 a.k.a. Bad Bunny,
