Today on the Matt Walsh show, a lot has been said about the Democrat victory on Tuesday,
00:01:15.600
and much of the analysis, as usual, misses the point. So today we'll look at the one key factor
00:01:20.820
that decided the election, and it's not the economy. Also, a black comedian admits that he is stalking a
00:01:26.840
random white family whose ancestors allegedly owned his ancestors as slaves 200 years ago.
00:01:32.080
Nothing strange about that. The trans male who harassed that woman at Gold's gym speaks out,
00:01:36.680
and he's about as creepy as you'd expect. Plus, we'll explore the different levels of fatness that
00:01:41.020
fat acceptance activists have come up with as part of their never-ending oppression Olympics contest.
00:01:45.520
Talk about all that and more today on the Matt Walsh show.
00:01:47.700
The holidays are here, which means your calendar is probably packed with hosting
00:02:17.680
duties, shopping lists, and endless to-dos. When life gets this hectic, sleep often takes a backseat,
00:02:23.060
but that's exactly when you need it the most. Quality rest is what keeps you energized for holiday
00:02:27.640
prep, helps you stay patient with the in-laws, and lets you actually enjoy the season instead of just
00:02:32.520
surviving it. And here's the truth. If your mattress isn't giving you the deep, comfortable sleep that
00:02:37.180
your body craves, you're starting every day at a disadvantage, and that's where Helix Sleep comes in.

00:03:54.220
breaking point. The American Revolution was born from 150 years of colonial experience, tensions,
00:03:59.060
and transformation. Let's understand what really led to independence. Hillsdale College offers a free
00:04:03.520
miniseries on colonial America that tells the full story. Hillsdale College has created a
00:04:07.820
fascinating six-part documentary series where their professors explore their religious,
00:04:11.660
political, cultural, and economic ideas that shaped America's unique character during the
00:04:16.060
colonial period. You'll discover why the idea of liberty, especially religious liberty,
00:04:19.820
drove settlers to risk everything crossing the Atlantic, how early Americans built local governments
00:04:24.720
to rule and protect themselves, and why America became a place where virtue could lead to peace
00:04:29.960
and prosperity. While most of us know the Declaration of Independence as the birth of our
00:04:34.180
nation, this course digs deeper into something even more fundamental, the forging of the American
00:04:38.340
character that made the revolution possible in the first place, and why reclaiming that character
00:04:43.160
matters more than ever today. Best of all, this miniseries is completely free and easy to access,
00:04:48.300
and if you're interested in learning more, Hillsdale offers over 40 other free online courses on
00:04:53.580
everything from C.S. Lewis and the Book of Genesis to the rise and fall of the Roman Republic,
00:04:57.280
plus in-depth courses on the American founding and constitution, all at no cost. Right now,
00:05:02.400
go to hillsdale.edu slash Walsh to enroll. That's no cost, and it's easy to get started. There's

00:05:14.620
complete picture of what happened on election day, it's tempting to come to the conclusion that the
00:05:18.820
America First movement is in a lot of trouble. Certainly, a lot of commentators are attempting to make
00:05:24.340
that point from both the left and the right, and for the most part, they're off the mark. Now,
00:05:29.400
for example, I saw some posts talking about how in the Atlanta metro area on Tuesday, Democrats managed
00:05:34.880
to flip counties that went for Donald Trump last year by 25 points, 26 points, and 28 points,
00:05:40.820
and those figures sound really striking. After all, how could any county go from overwhelmingly
00:05:45.020
supporting Donald Trump to voting Democrat in just one year? How could these numbers possibly be
00:05:51.280
accurate unless MAGA is on its last legs? Well, the problem with this analysis is that on Tuesday,
00:05:56.580
turnout in Georgia was only about 20%. Hardly anyone voted because it's an off-year election,
00:06:01.840
and the race didn't have any national implications at all, so the people who did vote weren't saying
00:06:07.940
anything about the Trump administration or the state of the country or anything like that. The
00:06:11.740
election in Georgia determined the makeup of Georgia's Public Service Commission, which regulates
00:06:16.220
utility prices. And people living in Georgia don't like the size of the electricity bills at the
00:06:20.300
moment, which have increased by about $50 a month since 2022. Electricity has gotten more expensive
00:06:26.780
because more corporate data centers have moved into town, and it's been unusually warm, requiring more
00:06:32.540
power for air conditioning, and people are frustrated by the cost. And I mean, that's really all there is
00:06:37.580
to it. Along the same lines, you'll hear people panicking about the fact that Democrats flipped two seats in
00:06:43.500
Mississippi's state Senate, ending the Republican supermajority in that chamber, which the GOP has
00:06:49.220
maintained for more than a decade. Supposedly, this is a major rejection of the Republican Party in a deep red
00:06:54.420
stronghold. But again, the context is important. Democrats only won the elections because of court-ordered
00:07:00.900
redistricting pursuant to the Voting Rights Act, a flagrantly unconstitutional and anti-white piece of civil rights-era
00:07:07.620
legislation that, as we've discussed, is about to be struck down by the Supreme Court. So they redrew the maps in
00:07:14.740
Mississippi on the basis of race in order to steal more votes. And what do you know? Well, they stole
00:07:21.620
a lot of votes. That's the story. And once the Supreme Court gets rid of the Voting Rights Act,
00:07:28.260
which it looks like they will, this particular kind of story won't happen again. Similarly, it's true
00:07:34.260
that Republicans lost several races in the state of Pennsylvania, Bucks County, the site of Trump's
00:07:40.100
infamous McDonald's campaign stop, elected a Democrat district attorney for the first time since the
00:07:45.420
1800s. Bucks County also elected a Democrat sheriff replacing a Republican. Additionally, Democrats flipped
00:07:51.260
a number of other highly prestigious positions, including the mayor of Beaver Borough and Erie County
00:07:58.940
executive. But again, you need to look at the context. Trump carried Bucks County by one-tenth of
00:08:05.480
one percent in the 2024 election. You carried Erie County by just one percent. So these were always
00:08:10.860
extremely tight competitive counties for Republicans. And without Trump at the top of the ticket, it makes
00:08:16.120
sense that some of them would slip away. And frankly, if we're being honest, some of these races probably
00:08:20.900
involve some degree of fraud, or at least the number of voters was so small that the result, you know,
00:08:26.720
it's hard to glean anything from the result. Consider the fact that a Democrat won the race for
00:08:31.760
Clearfield County Court of Common Pleas in Pennsylvania by 178 votes, or 0.8 percent,
00:08:39.600
beating a Republican who serves as incumbent DA. In the 2024 election, the same county went for Trump
00:08:46.180
by 52 points. This is a result that really doesn't even make any sense, even accounting for the fact
00:08:52.700
that turnout was cut in half. I mean, does anyone really think that voters have swung against Trump
00:08:56.860
by a margin of 51 percent? The change is so large and the voting pool is so small that
00:09:02.860
you can't really learn much from it except for the fact that, you know, someone should probably audit
00:09:08.060
the ballots. So what's needed at the moment is not the usual meltdown about how Republicans are doomed
00:09:14.540
to lose everything in the midterms next year and how we're destined for total Democrat party control
00:09:19.580
of government in 2028. That kind of thinking is never helpful. And in this case, it doesn't really
00:09:25.760
reflect what happened on Tuesday, even though what happened was bad. It's like a bad situation for
00:09:32.300
Republicans, as we talked about yesterday. There's no doubt about that either. So we can't cope in the
00:09:36.420
other direction by pretending that all of this is perfectly fine. What we need to focus at some length
00:09:44.240
instead on the handful of elections from earlier this week that actually do have implications for
00:09:51.260
the party and national politics, the things that we can learn from. And by far the most consequential
00:09:58.740
result, of course, was Zoran Mamdani's election as mayor of New York. And the more you look into
00:10:05.640
exactly how Zoran Mamdani won this race, the more you realize exactly what Republicans need to start doing
00:10:12.620
if we want to prevent socialists from replicating their success in every other major city in this
00:10:18.940
country. So we'll put probably the single most important statistics on the screen right now.
00:10:26.280
And this is kind of all you need to know is an exit poll asking voters how long they've lived in New
00:10:33.480
York City, along with who they voted for. So as you can see there, Mamdani won 83% of voters
00:10:41.540
who have lived in New York City for less than five years. So I'll say that again. Mamdani won 83%
00:10:50.260
of voters who have lived in the city for less than five years. Cuomo received just 15% of those voters.
00:10:58.740
And as you can see from the rest of the numbers in this poll, the longer that people have lived in
00:11:05.220
the city, the less likely they were to vote for Mamdani. It's a sliding scale. Among New Yorkers
00:11:13.940
who were actually born in the city, Cuomo was ahead of Mamdani by double digits.
00:11:20.400
Okay. That's this, all of the analysis that people are doing and looking at all the numbers and this
00:11:25.480
and that, and looking at the economy, it's really got nothing to do with it. This is everything.
00:11:33.240
Okay. In other words, the people who have invested the least into New York City, the people who don't
00:11:40.160
really own any property, don't have family connections, don't have any ancestral ties to
00:11:44.080
the city at all, haven't paid taxes for social services or city infrastructure, who just arrived
00:11:51.200
on a direct flight from the third world. They are the ones dictating the future of New York to actual
00:11:57.260
New Yorkers. Again, 40% of New Yorkers weren't even born in the United States. The word for this
00:12:04.920
situation is not migration or mass migration. The word is invasion. It is a hostile takeover
00:12:10.320
by people who have absolutely nothing to lose because they're not gambling with their families
00:12:15.280
or their futures. And they're deciding the direction of a country that they don't care about.
00:12:22.680
They can pick up and leave once they ransack New York. And that's exactly what they intend to do.
00:12:29.180
They'll move to another city in another state and they will repeat the process.
00:12:33.100
Now, in response to Mamdani's victory, I've seen some on the right make the argument that in
00:12:39.360
reality, the primary reason Mamdani is so popular in New York is that millions of people,
00:12:45.480
particularly young people, can't afford to live in the city. Young adults are getting college
00:12:50.400
degrees that cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars and train them to be communists. And then
00:12:55.460
when they realize they can't get a good job with their useless degrees, they decide that capitalism
00:12:59.640
is the problem. Therefore, we're told we need to meet these socialists in the middle. We should
00:13:04.700
feel their pain and hold them blameless for their frustration. That's the path that a lot of
00:13:10.480
commentators are charting for the future of the Republican Party. This is totally wrong.
00:13:17.760
One of the problems with this line of reasoning is that these disaffected young adults in New York
00:13:23.080
are voting for the exact problems that they're complaining about. The people who have lived in
00:13:29.140
New York for their whole lives understand very well that rent has doubled in the past few years
00:13:33.680
precisely because New York has imported so many foreigners, so many third worlders, people who
00:13:38.040
think and talk just like Zoran Mamdani. As a result of open borders, millions of newcomers,
00:13:44.300
as Democrats call them, are now competing with New Yorkers for jobs and housing and emergency
00:13:49.260
services and everything else. And instead of deporting these foreigners, New York's government
00:13:56.240
has simply expanded its welfare state to include every single one of them. They all get free pre-K
00:14:03.140
now and free buses and free health care and free housing and free bail when they commit felonies,
00:14:08.680
which a lot of them do. Now, over in the third world, that sounds like a pretty good deal.
00:14:14.160
But actual New Yorkers, actual Americans know through experience, if nothing else,
00:14:18.160
what happens next? Prices go up for everyone. The affordability crisis gets even worse.
00:14:25.880
And you can't solve the problem with higher taxes because none of the invaders are paying taxes.
00:14:30.720
And all the wealthy, you know, the taxpaying New Yorkers are leaving. But the other problem with
00:14:37.220
believing that the socialists are onto something and that we should blame capitalism and the financial
00:14:42.620
institutions is that voters in New York, they don't actually care about the economy.
00:14:48.160
Okay. These, again, these voters, the less time they've spent in New York. So we're supposed to
00:14:55.200
believe that it is all about the economy, even though it's the people who've been here for five
00:15:00.560
seconds. The people that have been in this economy for five seconds are the people who put Momdani over
00:15:05.880
the top. And so it's about the economy, really? He won 83% of the vote for people who just got here.
00:15:12.720
And we're supposed to believe that what tipped it was the economic situation? Are you insane?
00:15:20.980
No, Lee Kuan Yew, the first prime minister of Singapore and one of the country's modern founding
00:15:25.800
fathers, put it this way. In multiracial societies, you don't vote in accordance with your economic
00:15:31.560
interests and social interests. You vote in accordance with race and religion.
00:15:35.220
Well, that's it. That was obviously the case on Tuesday in New York. Take a look at these exit
00:15:42.620
polls. Every single demographic group that's preferred by the Democrat party, which is to
00:15:48.080
say every demographic group other than white men, went for Zoran Momdani. Black men, black women,
00:15:53.780
Latino men, Latino men, Latino women, white women, every other minority group, they all supported
00:16:04.360
Momdani over Cuomo. But the one demographic group that Democrats demonized every available
00:16:11.400
opportunity, white men, they went for Cuomo. So it's almost as if, as Singapore's founding father
00:16:17.420
to put it, everyone in this particular multiracial society is voting exactly as he said. They know
00:16:27.400
that they aren't going to vote based on policies or debates or campaign advertisements. Now, there's
00:16:33.540
no time for that. Instead, they recognize that their racial and religious interests matter more
00:16:37.700
than anything else. So that's how they make their decision. They're coming from places where
00:16:45.420
that's how it works. That's how it works in much of Africa and the Middle East. They're coming from
00:16:52.600
these heavily tribalistic places. And where you're not, you're not like the economies, they don't even
00:17:02.760
have economies in most of Africa. What they have, though, are tribal factions. And you side with your
00:17:10.720
tribal faction, no matter what. And so that's how it works in New York, which has now imported much of
00:17:20.780
Africa and the Middle East. Race and tribal factionalism trumps everything else.
00:17:28.680
And to be clear, when I say that voters choose candidates based on racial factors, I'm also
00:17:36.520
talking about voters who will pick candidates based on pure racial resentment, meaning their votes are
00:17:42.000
best understood as a vote against a particular racial group. That's the best way to understand
00:17:47.520
these figures from Tuesday. As you can see, 84% of women aged 18 to 29. Yes, 84% of women aged 18 to 29
00:17:57.480
voted for Zoran Mamdani. No other demographic group on the chart has anything close to that margin.
00:18:06.160
So if you meet a young woman in New York, then regardless of her national origin, her race or
00:18:10.940
her income, she almost certainly voted for the foreign communist who despises white people.
00:18:16.180
And also when she gets harassed or assaulted on the train or mugged on the street,
00:18:20.900
it will be in a very real sense exactly what she voted for.
00:18:27.480
Now, how could that be? How could a white woman vote for that?
00:18:32.520
How could she vote for someone who hates white people?
00:18:35.400
Well, it doesn't seem to make sense, but then you see videos like this one from Mamdani's
00:18:42.240
victory party featuring a former Bravo actress named Jennifer Welsh, who unfortunately we've
00:18:49.060
talked about a little bit on the show recently. This is a woman who has done so much work to
00:18:52.400
her face that now she resembles something like a transgender Willem Dafoe. And in this clip,
00:18:58.340
Welsh solved the riddle that we're discussing. Not the riddle about why she has injected botulism
00:19:04.160
into her face and made herself look so deformed, but rather the riddle about why she would vote
00:19:09.180
for someone who despises her. Well, she makes it crystal clear how it's possible for that to
00:19:14.160
happen, how it's possible for a white woman to vote for a foreign communist whose entire platform
00:19:18.740
is premised on disenfranchising and punishing whites. Watch.
00:19:23.080
It was all white people in here right now. It would be boring. I've grown up in those circles.
00:19:31.720
Everybody needs spies to tell her in their lives. Life's a lot better. That's the coolest thing
00:19:36.940
about America. Americans have no culture except for multicultural. Well said.
00:19:42.640
Americans have, it's hard to understand what you're saying because of all the background noise and
00:19:56.340
also because of all the Botox, she can't even move her lips. But so what you said, just to make it
00:20:01.200
clear, Americans have no culture except for multiculturalism. Crusty white people need to
00:20:05.460
learn how to embrace it. So those are the words of the rich, white, probably wine-drunk actress
00:20:12.920
talking to Mehdi Hassan, who also, of course, despises white people as well as Christianity
00:20:17.560
and the West. This is the unholy alliance we talked about yesterday between foreigners and
00:20:22.740
liberal women. And it's very clear that both of these groups are motivated by intense resentment
00:20:28.180
and hatred towards the very group of people who built this country
00:20:31.420
and have called it home since before it was founded. That's all this is. Okay. There's no,
00:20:39.800
no logic here. These are not people who have economic, oh, the economy. It's got nothing to do
00:20:48.020
with it. Okay. They hate white men. They couldn't be any more clear about it. They hate America.
00:20:54.920
They hate American culture. They want to destroy it. They hate white men in particular. And that's
00:20:59.940
what's motivating them. That is what is motivating them. Okay. If the price of gas went down and rent
00:21:06.980
was cheaper, they would not hate white men or hate American culture any less. Just to be clear.
00:21:15.820
These are, if I could put this as gently and nicely as I can, these are wretched, evil parasites
00:21:23.980
who are openly plotting to erase our culture and identity and replace it with a dystopian communist
00:21:30.980
hodgepodge of third world dysfunction. And the case of Jennifer Welsh and millions of other women
00:21:37.840
like her, they're not voting to advance their own racial interests, unlike the other people who are
00:21:43.720
visible in that clip who are so much as to express their deep seated resentment of white men.
00:21:51.500
That's all this is. It's emotional incontinence. It's envy. It's resentment.
00:21:57.900
And you could tell that you could tell it's emotional incontinence because the idea that
00:22:00.660
Jennifer Welsh presented in this clip, which is also promoted by the left more generally,
00:22:04.720
doesn't make any sense. I mean, it does not withstand any scrutiny whatsoever. The problem
00:22:09.720
was saying that America has no culture except multiculturalism is that multiculturalism is not
00:22:15.900
culture. It's anti-culture. It's the eradication of our identity as a nation. Multiculturalism is a
00:22:25.380
kind of culture in the way that a black hole is a kind of star, which is to say it's an inversion of
00:22:32.200
the thing. It is the opposite. It is what happens when the thing is destroyed. And that is why in every
00:22:39.520
single case, every single one, multiculturalism has proven synonymous with disaster and ruin.
00:22:46.980
We have seen this everywhere across the West. In Germany, Angela Merkel famously admitted more
00:22:54.340
than a decade ago that attempts to build a multicultural society in her country have, quote,
00:22:59.040
utterly failed. But she kept the floodgates open to foreigners anyway, who have proceeded to turn
00:23:05.620
Germany into the worst performing economy in the entire world. As Germany's chancellor recently put
00:23:11.000
it, the welfare state as we know it today can no longer be financed by our economy. Well, it turns out,
00:23:17.420
you know, none of these migrants are getting jobs. This is what happens when you bring in a bunch of
00:23:22.880
migrants who are not interested in working, but they want you, you know, they want you to take care
00:23:29.140
of them. Turns out it doesn't work. It just doesn't work. You can wish that it works. You can hope that it
00:23:37.020
works. You can tell yourself that it will work, but it just doesn't. It can't. And, you know, a lot of
00:23:45.980
these migrants are also committing crimes, lots of crimes. In the past decade, according to Germany's
00:23:49.780
government, a total of 136,000 known crimes were committed by Syrian suspects alone.
00:23:57.620
That's one crime every 39 minutes by a Syrian migrant in just that country.
00:24:05.500
Overall, the crime rate for foreigners is roughly three times the rate of Germans.
00:24:11.020
And that's based on official statistics, which are obviously unreliable.
00:24:14.420
They don't usually, you know, they usually don't record crimes committed by foreigners at all. So
00:24:19.120
even though they're trying to stack the deck in favor of foreigners, still they have to admit
00:24:28.300
that the numbers are staggering. Now it's the same story in Sweden where three out of four murders,
00:24:36.300
attempted murders and manslaughter offenses are now committed by so-called migrants or the children
00:24:41.860
migrants. According to Sweden's government, quote, foreign-born individuals are two and a half times
00:24:47.400
more likely to be registered as suspected of a crime compared to those born in Sweden with both
00:24:53.160
parents also born in Sweden. For people born in Sweden with two foreign-born parents, the likelihood
00:24:58.640
is over three times higher than for those with Swedish-born parents. And again, those are the most
00:25:06.360
conservative numbers available. Now we could go on and on and on. We could list many more examples of
00:25:13.540
the failure of multiculturalism. The more multicultural your country becomes, the poorer and more dangerous
00:25:23.380
it becomes. This is the case everywhere, all the time. It never works any other way but that.
00:25:29.940
And that's the case from England to France, whose president also declared at one point that
00:25:36.120
multiculturalism was a failure. Quote, it's a failure. Sarkozy said of multiculturalism more than
00:25:42.380
a decade ago. The truth is that in all our democracies, we've been too concerned about the
00:25:47.320
identity of the new arrivals and not enough about the identity of the country receiving them.
00:25:51.840
And then like Germany, France kept importing more and more foreigners anyway. They noticed that it was
00:25:57.860
a failure, that it's not working, that it's destroying their country. And they said, well, what are you
00:26:01.500
going to do? I guess we're just going to give up on our country. But no country proves my point better
00:26:09.340
or with more comic effect than Canada, which has now been taken over by Indians and Sikhs. Something
00:26:14.860
like one in five residents of Toronto is from South Asia, according to official estimates. The actual
00:26:20.660
numbers, again, probably double that. But that's why Justice Trudeau would dress up like a
00:26:27.480
Bollywood star and bow his head and clasp his hands for the cameras. The pandering was not exactly
00:26:34.940
subtle, nor was its purpose. But somehow, once again, Canada has managed to outdo itself on this
00:26:41.380
front. So meet Graham McGregor, who's a member of Canada's provincial parliament, which is basically
00:26:46.840
a state government in Brampton, Ontario. He's also Canada's minister of citizenship and multiculturalism.
00:26:53.260
So we're going right to the source here. And Graham just posted this hostage video celebrating the
00:26:58.820
birth of somebody named Guru Nanak Devi Ji. And then he wished everybody a happy Gurpuram.
00:27:07.900
But you got to watch the whole thing because it gets better as it goes. So enjoy.
00:27:19.960
Ontario's minister of citizenship and multiculturalism, and your MPP for Brampton North.
00:27:23.560
Today we celebrate the birth of Guru Nanak Devi Ji, whose message of equality, compassion,
00:27:29.580
and service continues to inspire millions around the world. His teachings remind us to live
00:27:34.600
life with humility, to uplift others, and to see the divine in all. On this special day,
00:27:40.600
may we carry forward his legacy by spreading kindness and standing up for justice. Wishing
00:27:51.920
So imagine being 50 years old, living in Canada your whole life, and then for the first time,
00:28:01.700
seemingly out of nowhere, you start hearing your politicians talking like this.
00:28:07.940
You half expect the guy to hold up a copy of today's newspaper to prove that his captors
00:28:11.340
haven't already killed him. I mean, it's painful to watch in every way. But at the same time,
00:28:18.340
you know, I have to admit, I think I could do a better job. So I'm going to subject you to my
00:28:21.300
own rendition of whatever he just said. Let's see how we do. He said, quote, wishing you and your
00:28:27.540
family a happy Gurparab. Gurparab di lak lak vathayan. Close enough, anyway. The point is,
00:28:38.100
in Canada, the politicians have to read lines like this with a completely straight face.
00:28:42.580
I mean, you can see their souls, like, leaving their bodies as they do it. It's an admission
00:28:47.300
of defeat, of conquest. They're desperately buying time until they're replaced for good,
00:28:53.340
and they know it. And meanwhile, Canada's economy, like the economies of virtually every nation in
00:28:58.220
Europe, has stagnated. It's been overwhelmed by a glut of foreigners who immediately gain access
00:29:02.760
to every social service that Canadians have to pay for. And instead of leadership, instead of
00:29:07.500
somebody admitting that multiculturalism has destroyed Canada, we're left with pathetic videos
00:29:14.720
like this one. You know, it couldn't be any more clear that identity and culture are prerequisites
00:29:21.860
for having a functional country or a country at all. Your nation has to have a national identity
00:29:30.200
and a culture, or it cannot exist. Multiculturalism is the antithesis of identity and culture. It's
00:29:38.260
the absence of a common purpose. It's the absence of stability. And it inevitably leads to a drastic
00:29:46.840
increase in racial resentment and crime and poverty and tribalism and factualism and every other marker
00:29:54.440
of social decay. Now, Democrats know all this. They're not making a mistake or a miscalculation.
00:30:02.080
Just like Europe's leaders, they recognize that multiculturalism destroys nations. And just like
00:30:06.780
Europe's leaders, they're going to continue to push for it. Precisely for that reason.
00:30:13.500
Multiculturalism is an expression of hatred and resentment, and it always has been.
00:30:17.080
Now, if you're a conservative and you're blaming Tuesday's losses on tariffs or, you know, the economy
00:30:22.860
or anything like that, then you're missing the most important factor of all. You're missing the point.
00:30:27.940
And the point is the quote I said earlier, in multiracial societies, you don't vote in accordance
00:30:32.600
with your economic interests and social interests. You vote in accordance with race and religion.
00:30:37.580
And that's what we saw on Tuesday. And sometime between now and the midterms, conservatives can either
00:30:44.340
learn this lesson and start voting themselves as a unified front in accordance with our own common interests
00:30:50.760
to protect our national identity. Or we could continue sniping at one another, blaming one another,
00:30:58.600
and ultimately losing what is left of our nation. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:31:06.000
Owning a home is amazing until it's not. One minute you're living your best HGTV fantasy, the next
00:31:17.880
you're wading through a flooded kitchen at 2 a.m. because a pipe decided today was the day to give up
00:31:22.960
on life. Spoiler alert, home repairs have zero respect for your schedule, your wallet, or your
00:31:28.320
sanity. Look, regular homeowners insurance usually doesn't cover the everyday stuff that actually goes
00:31:33.040
wrong. Plumbing failures, HVAC breakdowns, electrical issues. Most of the time, you're on your own for
00:31:38.140
those repairs. And that's where HomeServe comes in. Think of it like a subscription for your home.
00:31:42.640
And for as little as $4.99 a month, you get a backup when things break. And repairs always sit at the
00:31:49.760
worst time, right? We all know that, especially as we get into the holidays. Instead of frantically
00:31:53.480
searching for a contractor in a panic, you could already be on the phone with HomeServe's 24-7 hotline
00:31:59.680
getting someone scheduled. It's simple. Pick a plan that fits your budget. Something goes wrong. Just call
00:32:04.760
and they handle it. They've been doing this for over 20 years with a network of 2,600 local contractors
00:32:09.400
with 4.5 million customers, a 4.8 out of 5 rating, and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau.
00:32:16.460
They're clearly the real deal. Help protect your home systems and your wallet with HomeServe
00:32:20.340
against covered repairs. Plans start at just $4.99 a month. Go to homeserve.com to find the plan that's
00:32:27.160
right for you. That's homeserve.com. Not available everywhere. Most plans range between $4.99 to $11.99
00:32:32.760
a month, your first year. Terms apply on covered repairs. You guys ever read protein bar labels?
00:32:39.400
It feels and feel like you're reading off a candy bar. Most protein bars are loaded with sugar and
00:32:43.240
processed junk that leave you bloated and unsatisfied. My team was hunting for something
00:32:46.960
better, a clean protein bar that actually keeps us energized. Now enter Equip Foods Prime Bar,
00:32:52.280
the first grass-fed beef protein bar made with only real food ingredients and absolutely nothing to
00:32:56.680
hide. Starting today, my listeners will receive an exclusive discount on Prime Bar, which has become
00:33:00.980
our team's favorite protein bar on the market with 20 grams of protein in every bar. I've tried a lot of
00:33:06.140
protein bars on the market and none of them taste like real food. They taste artificial. They taste
00:33:10.780
just kind of weird, but Prime Bar actually tastes like real food and good food. With just 11 clean
00:33:16.860
ingredients, including collagen, beef tallow, and colostrum, naturally sweetened with dates and
00:33:20.800
honey, you get 20 grams of clean protein without the bloat. No whey, no seed oils, no gluten, no
00:33:25.700
artificial junk. They're third-party tested for heavy metals, microplastics, and pesticides, so they can
00:33:30.360
actually back up their cleanest bar on the market claim. If you want to try the cleanest protein bar on the
00:33:35.560

00:33:52.700
Well, the comedian Roy Wood Jr. appeared on the Shannon Sharp podcast, I guess, a couple of days ago,
00:34:00.800
and he confessed to something quite bizarre. This is one of the weirder things that we've
00:34:08.500
heard someone say on a podcast, and that is saying quite a lot. Listen to this.
00:34:13.660
I found the white family that purchased the first black wood of my bloodline
00:34:23.660
If I wanted to, today, I could find the white wood descendants in southern Georgia
00:34:44.280
That's the thing we were talking about with slavery, man, is that it was a lot of white
00:34:52.040
Yeah, you had working for you, you still couldn't come up?
00:35:09.520
Well, I think they broke because they didn't have slaves, Roy.
00:35:20.160
Somebody 200 years ago had slaves, but they didn't.
00:35:24.240
So if you pulled up on their crib, I'm not sure what you'd be looking for.
00:35:29.320
I don't know if you're going to run in there trying to free the slaves,
00:35:37.720
I don't know if you're going to try to set up an underground railroad from their house
00:35:44.880
to free all the slaves, but you're just going to be shouting at a nice white family
00:35:49.240
while they're eating dinner and they're going to be totally confused staring at you
00:35:52.320
because they don't have slaves and their parents didn't and their grandparents didn't
00:35:56.780
and their great-grandparents didn't and their great-great-great-grandparents didn't.
00:36:00.000
Actually, it's funny because this raises a point that I don't think Roy wanted to raise.
00:36:07.420
It's true that having slaves did not translate into generational wealth for a lot of these families,
00:36:16.000
at least not like 15 generations of wealth or whatever.
00:36:19.600
That's because, for one thing, it's been a really long time.
00:36:33.680
But also, slavery was a counterproductive system economically.
00:36:46.520
And that's interesting to note because it totally cuts against the claim that America was built on slavery.
00:36:58.460
And the other point which a lot of people have made,
00:37:00.860
not that this creepy outburst really calls for us to make points.
00:37:05.640
It doesn't really call for a rebuttal, but whatever.
00:37:08.580
So, the other point people have made is the obvious one, which is,
00:37:12.440
like, why don't you go back to Africa and find the family that captured your ancestors
00:37:25.600
Find the family that kept your ancestors were captured in Africa.
00:37:32.060
And not by any European, but by an African and sold into slavery.
00:37:45.040
They probably don't live in the kind of home you can find on Zillow.
00:37:47.140
But why don't you focus your attention on them?
00:37:50.860
Go hold them to account for something that their distant relatives did 200 years ago.
00:37:58.400
And it's also funny because, you know, I've gotten in trouble for saying this,
00:38:03.220
but when you think about a guy like Roy Wood, well, you've never thought about Roy Wood,
00:38:09.780
but now that you are for this brief moment in time,
00:38:13.100
and you think about him feeling angry at the family that bought his ancestors,
00:38:27.640
And this is one point about reparations that is rarely brought up.
00:38:31.640
And sometimes it is, but it's rarely brought up.
00:38:34.120
And it's a point that can be easy to misconstrue and take out of context.
00:38:40.040
But the point is this, that reparations assumes that there is something to be repaired,
00:38:47.740
that your life is worse now than it would have been had this thing not happened.
00:38:55.560
Now, again, even if that's true, reparations would still be retarded,
00:39:05.240
Roy Wood, if his ancestors weren't brought here, I mean, he's still mad.
00:39:12.240
He almost gets emotional when he's talking about it, or at least he's pretending to.
00:39:19.380
But as he's talking about it, you can see it's like seething anger he has.
00:39:24.920
He's so angry about it that his ancestors were enslaved 200 years ago.
00:39:29.660
Two centuries later, he's still so angry about it that he's obsessing over it.
00:39:35.240
But then you have to ask, well, what are you angry about now?
00:39:43.700
Do you wish that it, I mean, if it hadn't, if your ancestors were not brought here,
00:39:53.980
So, I mean, you are in a better place now, much better than you would have been
00:40:08.660
If your bloodline had stayed in Africa for these past 200 years,
00:40:12.300
there's a very high chance that it just would have been wiped out
00:40:24.100
this thing that you're still mad about somehow that didn't happen to you,
00:40:26.500
but if it hadn't happened, then either you'd be living in Africa now
00:40:33.580
So there's something just incoherent about being angry at something
00:40:38.540
and something that without it happening, you would not exist.
00:40:44.160
Or if you did exist, you would exist in a much worse condition
00:41:11.080
Roy Wood is almost certainly in a better position today,
00:41:13.280
now, than he would have been had his ancestors not been brought here by slaves.
00:41:17.340
That's the kind of thing that people could get mad at you saying,
00:41:35.440
And so it just, but this is a freeing thing, right?
00:41:47.000
So, you know, you've been free your whole life.
00:41:53.160
Legally, you know, legally free, physically free.
00:42:03.440
You've enslaved your own mind through resentment, misplaced rage, anger, blame.
00:42:11.340
Whatever it is you're upset about in your own life,
00:42:13.340
you're blaming this random family in the suburbs.
00:42:30.500
And this is one of the ways, is to realize that, yeah, well, this thing was bad,
00:42:36.820
but A, it didn't happen to me, and B, I'm in a better spot today because of it.
00:42:44.120
So, well, like, what is there to be angry about at this point?
00:42:50.780
There's a lot for my ancestors who died a long time ago to be angry about,
00:42:57.020
What is there for me personally to be angry about?
00:43:04.360
Yeah, we talked yesterday about the incident at Gold's Gym,
00:43:07.220
the trans-identified male who went into the women's locker room,
00:43:11.640
and a woman, Tish, confronted him for standing up for herself,
00:43:16.580
and the other woman there, she was banned from the premises.
00:43:26.080
I told the people that raised me that this is the way that I was when I was eight years old,
00:43:31.980
and really, I stuffed it down pretty deep, and I began using hormones this year in February,
00:43:38.240
and I actually relinquished that information to her about, you know, name change,
00:43:44.900
and it says female on my ID and hormones, and, I mean, I'm registered as a female with the gym, so.
00:43:53.140
And were you at that moment, because she told us about a couple of different encounters,
00:44:01.460
Well, she has become aggressive with me on four different occasions,
00:44:05.340
actually at different locations in Los Angeles at Gold's Gym,
00:44:14.480
I believe I was enrobed in a towel on one occasion,
00:44:18.660
and this last time I was clothed the entire time, um, yeah.
00:44:27.020
You know, again, I apologize if this is too graphic, but I just think it's important.
00:44:41.820
Um, that is a process that requires quite lengthy work.
00:44:48.840
From her perspective, I'm just wondering if you see her perspective.
00:44:52.980
She's saying that she's looking at you, say, in a towel, and you still have male genitalia,
00:44:59.860
and, you know, you may be transitioning, but could you understand her being uncomfortable?
00:45:06.740
Well, I certainly do not understand it, but I do get the notion of the fear-mongering that she's perpetuating.
00:45:20.220
He has not, quote-unquote, transitioned, even though it's impossible anyway.
00:45:24.280
But, so he's a dude with male genitals swinging all around the women's locker room.
00:45:30.500
I mean, if he had mutilated himself, that would not make the whole thing any less disturbing.
00:45:38.660
I mean, this line of questioning seems to imply that if he had mutilated his genitalia and was flashing that all around the locker room, that it would be better.
00:45:47.640
Like, if anything, it makes it, that would make it considerably more disturbing.
00:45:53.360
I mean, imagine being a woman and having to see that.
00:46:00.600
What matters is that this is a dude, and yet you see, even as TMZ's interviewing, it's, um, big shock that not a lot of moral courage from TMZ, I would have expected.
00:46:12.060
But they're still being very cautious and, uh, and gentle with him, and, uh, they shouldn't be.
00:46:24.260
And if there's one thing that I can emphasize about this issue that maybe I haven't emphasized enough, I mean, I think I've emphasized everything, every angle on this issue that you could possibly emphasize.
00:46:33.180
But here's an important one that isn't raised often enough, which is that this guy doesn't believe that he's a woman.
00:46:52.300
No one on the outside looks at that video and thinks that that's a woman.
00:46:57.440
But what I'm saying is that he doesn't even believe it.
00:47:06.020
For him, this is a fantasy that he's playing out.
00:47:15.420
And as the interview went on, they started asking about it.
00:47:17.940
Well, how do you, why don't you care how the women there feel?
00:47:26.780
No, in fact, the fact that it makes women uncomfortable and scared.
00:47:35.840
It's not that he doesn't care that women feel uncomfortable.
00:47:50.420
And he's in the locker room because this is his fantasy.
00:47:56.820
You know, he says at another point, I can't, I don't know if it was in that clip because I was only vaguely paying attention.
00:48:00.040
But at some point in this interview, he says that he's had, it's actually interesting.
00:48:07.620
He says he's had run-ins with this woman at four different locations around town.
00:48:12.680
And that's something that maybe if the cops were interested in doing their jobs in that town, maybe they would look into it.
00:48:21.460
Sounds to me like he really enjoys the reaction he gets from this woman.
00:48:34.500
I'm not saying that as a fact, but it sounds like that to me.
00:48:38.280
And what certainly is true is that this is all about him playing out his fantasy.

00:49:22.160
Finally, as I said yesterday, you know, wokeness is not really dead.
00:49:26.280
The label is dead, the term, but not the thing itself.
00:49:29.640
And yet there are particular kinds of wokeness that feel kind of passe, feel like they've gone out of style.
00:49:35.960
And that's why this clip, which was actually from a few days ago from some YouTube channel, and it went viral on X,
00:49:41.760
but it feels like a time capsule from, like, the year 2020.
00:50:01.980
It's based on what level of privilege you have in the world.
00:50:05.520
So someone in a small fat category may not struggle getting on an airplane.
00:50:10.000
But someone in a mid-fat or super fat may not be able to use even the airplane extender.
00:50:14.740
So that's where that comes in and, like, the privilege levels of, like, what fat means to different people.
00:50:24.520
Small fat, mid-fat, super fat, mega fat, cosmic fat, galactic fat.
00:50:30.660
I kind of like all the different sizes that they come up with.
00:50:33.400
I think if I opened a fast food restaurant, I would make those the sizes.
00:50:40.780
Can I get a small fat burger and fries, please?
00:51:06.280
there are still three or four levels before you're the fattest kind of fat.
00:51:13.840
You could be a full-on 300-pound, greasy, sweaty, lard-ass.
00:51:19.640
And you could still feel pretty good because you could say,
00:51:32.940
Then you can look at all the people fatter than you and say,
00:51:45.160
Now, I know it works the opposite way in the Oppression Olympics.
00:51:48.220
I understand that in the world of fat acceptance,
00:51:52.900
So it's the opposite way, where if you're super fat,
00:51:56.120
you can look down on the small fats and the mid-fats.
00:52:01.100
They haven't been in this game as long as you have.
00:52:32.460
So as someone who doesn't fetishize the idea of being oppressed,
00:52:39.280
But as someone who does look for excuses to be lazy
00:52:59.840
But that really has nothing to do with it at all.
00:53:03.500
And, I mean, this is kind of the most obvious analysis
00:53:46.540
that's what killed the fat acceptance movement.
00:56:43.980
And suddenly nobody wants to be fat positive anymore.
00:57:05.800
so that's where I wanted the focus of the show to be.
