00:00:14.760 What do we get out of it?

00:00:16.420 For incubating all of this tribal warfare,

00:00:19.260 what do we get?

00:00:20.160 Well, we'll be defrauded and then discarded

00:00:22.320 the moment we're not useful to these people.

00:00:24.440 Import the third world, 1.00

00:00:25.400 you end up with third world political conventions.

00:00:27.460 Import the third world, 1.00

00:00:28.360 you end up with third world politics.

00:00:30.140 That's the way it goes.

00:00:31.260 The law is not evenly applied.

00:00:34.220 That's the point. 0.99

00:00:35.000 These leftist scumbags are still given a pass. 1.00

00:00:38.200 They are still treated with kid gloves. 1.00

00:00:40.880 They are still given carte blanche.

00:01:00.000 Let's be real here.

00:01:09.960 Owning a handgun for self-defense comes with serious responsibility.

00:01:13.040 You need it secure, but also accessible when it matters most.

00:01:16.380 Too often, that means choosing between locking it away

00:01:18.840 or leaving it out, vulnerable to kids, guests, or intruders.

00:01:22.060 That's the problem Stopbox USA set out to solve.

00:01:25.400 And they nailed it with the Stopbox Pro.

00:01:27.540 It's a 100% mechanical, keyless, battery-free lockbox

00:01:45.840 And when seconds matter, that makes all the difference.

00:01:48.900 I've had a Stopbox for a couple years now

00:01:50.480 and really impressed with the quality.

00:02:37.520 everything is more expensive than it actually is.

00:03:51.380 When we talked about the rise of Somali clan warfare

00:03:55.000 in American politics the other day,

00:03:56.380 admittedly, the evidence was mostly anecdotal.

00:03:59.540 There were a few reports and social media posts

00:04:01.540 claiming that thousands of Somalis in Minneapolis

00:04:03.440 had rejected Omar Fate, the Somali mayoral candidate,

00:04:06.040 because he belonged to the Darud clan.

00:04:09.560 You see, according to these social media posts,

00:04:11.680 many Somalis in Minneapolis

00:04:12.980 are members of the rival Hawiye clan,

00:04:15.740 and they'd rather abstain

00:04:16.980 or even vote for Jacob Frye, a white guy,

00:04:19.620 if you can imagine the horror,

00:04:21.320 rather than betray their clan's honor

00:04:23.440 and support Omar Fate.

00:04:25.020 That's how deep these clan loyalties supposedly go.

00:04:27.820 Now, if all this is true,

00:04:28.760 it's maybe the clearest sign yet,

00:04:30.120 among many, many other clear signs,

00:04:31.900 that all migration from Somalia 0.98

00:04:34.560 and similar third-world countries

00:04:36.840 needs to be terminated immediately,

00:04:39.240 all of it, 100% of it.

00:04:41.540 And additionally, Somalia's temporary protected status,

00:04:44.160 which has shielded Somalis from deportation for decades,

00:04:47.420 for no discernible reason,

00:04:49.420 must be revoked as well.

00:04:51.560 I mean, whatever your position on immigration policy may be,

00:04:53.680 no reasonable person can seriously suggest

00:04:55.420 that we should import full-on tribal warfare

00:04:58.060 into our streets.

00:05:00.120 But again, it's critically important

00:05:01.540 to determine whether this story is true,

00:05:03.180 whether it's accurate to say

00:05:04.640 that foreign blood feuds

00:05:05.960 are indeed influencing elections in this country,

00:05:08.200 causing civil disturbance and so on.

00:05:10.300 And indeed, just 24 hours later,

00:05:12.900 all doubt has been removed.

00:05:15.400 Ilhan Omar, probably the single most vocal

00:05:17.400 and resentful Somali in all of US politics,

00:05:21.240 because somehow there are a bunch of them,

00:05:23.660 has just delivered a speech

00:05:25.200 in which she attacks Somali voters 0.79

00:05:26.980 who did not support Omar Fateh.

00:05:29.760 Specifically, she calls for Somalis

00:05:31.280 who didn't support Omar Fateh,

00:05:32.840 including Somalis who rejected him

00:05:34.380 because of his clan affiliation,

00:05:35.980 to be expelled from the country. 1.00

00:05:38.260 She wants the traitorous Somalis 1.00

00:05:39.800 in the Hawiye clan 1.00

00:05:41.120 to be forcibly removed from Minneapolis

00:05:43.720 as quickly as possible.

00:05:45.480 In other words,

00:05:47.240 in a somewhat unexpected turn of events,

00:05:49.160 Somalis are now the foremost advocates 1.00

00:05:50.760 for Somali deportation in this country.

00:05:54.940 Ilhan Omar is to the right of Tom Homan on this one.

00:05:59.440 ICE is saying they want to prioritize

00:06:00.620 the removal of illegal aliens

00:06:01.920 who commit serious crimes.

00:06:02.920 Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar and the Darud clan 0.99

00:06:05.380 are essentially out here

00:06:06.840 calling for pre-dawn raids

00:06:08.440 at the local Somali preschool.

00:06:10.940 Family separations and everything.

00:06:13.540 They'll be front row at the next Trump rally

00:06:15.620 chanting, send them back

00:06:16.840 in a language that nobody can understand.

00:06:20.120 So who said that tribal politics

00:06:21.420 can't be entertaining at least?

00:06:22.820 And we'll play only a small portion

00:06:25.280 of Omar's full remarks

00:06:26.800 as reported by Andy Ngo

00:06:27.800 since Omar is subtitled

00:06:29.420 because she can't be bothered

00:06:30.760 to speak in English.

00:06:32.200 So if you're listening to the audio podcast,

00:06:34.340 you're not going to be able

00:06:35.420 to make heads or tails of this.

00:06:37.100 But here it is.

00:06:38.180 Watch.

00:06:38.400 They're like, bro.

00:06:39.720 And you're right.

00:06:41.380 You're right.

00:06:42.520 I mean, I don't know.

00:06:43.000 You're right.

00:06:43.700 So I can't do anything with anybody.

00:06:48.400 They're wrong.

00:06:49.220 You're right.

00:06:49.760 I wish I could do anything to write on him.

00:06:51.440 I don't think it was possible.

00:06:51.980 Maybe you're right.

00:06:53.180 That's enough.

00:06:54.600 You're rightformation.

00:06:55.120 Now later on in this footage, according to the translation,

00:07:23.640 Ilhan Omar attacks Somalis who translate her speeches into English.

00:07:28.140 She claims those Somalis are misrepresenting her words and trying to get her in trouble or even arrested. 0.97

00:07:34.660 Or at least I think that's what Ilhan Omar is saying.

00:07:36.480 Based on the translation that was done by a translator, she's attacking. 1.00

00:07:39.580 For all I know, the translators are messing with her in a very meta way.

00:07:45.720 That said, Omar has challenged these kinds of translations in the past with little success.

00:07:49.800 As you might remember, about two years ago, there was a dispute about what Ilhan Omar said during one of these speeches.

00:07:57.020 Specifically, there was a dispute about whether she really said that she wants to use her position in Congress to advance Somalia's interests.

00:08:04.480 Omar disputed the translation that was making the rounds online, where she said that very explicitly.

00:08:08.140 In response to Daily Wire, commissioned a professional independent translation of Omar's remarks and found that the online translation was mostly accurate.

00:08:18.360 So we'll assume, especially since Omar's team hasn't pushed back on this latest video in any way, that the remarks are mostly accurate.

00:08:25.740 The translation is mostly accurate.

00:08:27.520 And also, by the way, as I've said many times now, this is one of the reasons why politicians should be banned from addressing crowds in any language but English.

00:08:39.880 We as Americans, she's a congressional representative, we should know what she's saying.

00:08:45.600 And if she comes back later and says, the translation wasn't accurate, guess whose fault that is?

00:08:50.280 That's totally your fault.

00:08:51.640 Maybe speak in English.

00:08:52.760 So if you speak in a foreign language and you get mistranslated, that's your fault.

00:08:59.020 I got no sympathy for you whatsoever.

00:09:01.480 And it's not our responsibility to spend, like, days trying to, we got to track down a, we got to go to Somalia, track down a Somali translator.

00:09:10.120 Not our responsibility.

00:09:12.540 That's on you.

00:09:13.360 Speak in English.

00:09:14.660 This is America.

00:09:15.640 We speak English here.

00:09:16.460 But assuming that all that is accurate, which I think it is, that would mean that, indeed, all of these TikToks and social media posts coming from Somalis in Minneapolis are accurate as well.

00:09:26.840 Somalis are at each other's throats because of Klan warfare to the point that they're influencing elections in this country, as many of these posts are saying.

00:09:34.300 So here's just a few of these examples where various Somalis reference Kabil, or intertribal conflict, which is what they call it in that language, which played a key role in the race.

00:09:47.680 Watch.

00:09:49.380 This video is for the Sehwalahis.

00:09:51.900 Let this be a lesson for you.

00:09:53.680 Let this, the whole Umar situation be a lesson for you.

00:09:57.340 If you want to break the curse from the older generations, then don't spend your time trying to please them. 0.98

00:10:03.820 If Umar spent all that time trying to please the Somalis and just spend it on other communities, he could have easily won this. 1.00

00:10:12.560 You don't really have to win over the Somalis to win anything. 1.00

00:10:16.020 If you're running for a mayor, president one day, you don't need to win over the Somalis to win.

00:10:22.780 You're not in Somalia.

00:10:24.240 If you're thinking Ilhan Umar, 200,000 people voted for Ilhan Umar.

00:10:28.580 Do you think all of them were Somalis?

00:10:30.260 Hell no, they weren't.

00:10:31.420 For damn near every other function, the entire campaign became about Qabeer. 0.99

00:10:35.160 By no means am I saying Jacob Rao was a terrible candidate.

00:10:38.160 Lakin, you guys had Umar Fattah, who could have been the first Somali mayor.

00:10:42.600 Somalia will not prosper for the next 10 years because of what just happened in Minneapolis.

00:10:47.240 A young Somali man that goes by the name of Omar Fatiha was running for mayor of Minneapolis.

00:10:51.680 He asked for his people to come out and support him, to vote for him.

00:10:54.740 But instead, they went and they danced with a white man.

00:10:58.340 I would understand if their policies didn't match.

00:11:01.800 I would understand if he just wasn't the right fit.

00:11:04.500 Maybe he was just too young.

00:11:06.940 But they did it because of tribalism.

00:11:09.420 Choosing a name that they've been tied to for the past hundreds of years.

00:11:13.260 Now, tribal differences are such a major part of life in Minnesota that the state's Department of Health has published guidance on this topic.

00:11:24.320 Quote,

00:11:24.800 Clans are a very sensitive topic for many Somalis.

00:11:27.680 Enduring tension between rival clans has been a major factor in the ongoing conflict in Somalia.

00:11:33.240 Clinicians should avoid discussing clans with Somali patients, as many may find it disrespectful or offensive.

00:11:39.640 So, if you're a doctor, it's apparently dangerous to even broach the topic of a Somali's clan identity.

00:11:48.240 You know, you might get roughed up, I guess.

00:11:50.000 I don't know.

00:11:51.080 That's how important these affiliations are to these people.

00:11:54.340 I mean, their voting based on is very important to them, but you're not allowed to ask them about it.

00:11:58.360 They come to our country and this is how they operate, but we're not allowed to ask them. 1.00

00:12:03.600 How dare you?

00:12:04.600 How dare you as an American expect them to explain themselves in any way? 1.00

00:12:09.640 That's the attitude.

00:12:11.660 Now, to be clear, it's not just last Tuesday's vote in Minneapolis that was influenced and probably decided by these various clan differences among Somalis.

00:12:19.480 This phenomenon is far more widespread than that.

00:12:22.420 In fact, Somalis have brought their tribal disputes all the way to Maine, where less than 10,000 Somalis reportedly live.

00:12:29.300 I mean, if there's anywhere in the world you'd think you could go and you wouldn't have to deal with Somali culture, you'd think it'd be Maine, up in the mountains, in the woods. 1.00

00:12:42.400 No, they got it up there, too.

00:12:43.540 This is an analysis from Steve Robinson, an editor of The Maine Wire, one of the top news outlets in the state.

00:12:49.340 A Somali source of Maine offers this explainer on the clan dynamics unfolding in Maine-slash-U.S. politics.

00:12:56.640 The Darud clan dominates Somali political representation in Maine, but by population, other clans have massive presence, but for some reason, the Darud love power.

00:13:05.380 People including figures like Ilhan Omar, Dekha Dalak, Yusuf Yusuf, I think these are actual people, Omar Fateh, Safiya Khalid, Abdullah Ali, just good old-fashioned American names there, are from the same sub-clans of Darud, Ogadan, and Majitin.

00:13:26.340 In Somalia, however, the Darud are just one of the four major clans alongside Hawiye, Rahanwin, and Durr, without overall dominance.

00:13:37.080 So these are—this is stuff you've got to know now to understand American politics.

00:13:42.040 Now, before we continue with Steve Robinson's post, it probably goes without saying that from the perspective of actual Americans, none of these geographical differences or clan affiliations really matter or should matter.

00:13:52.040 All of these people need to go back to Somalia without exception. 1.00

00:13:54.660 The Somali legislators in Maine sound exactly like the Somali legislators in Minnesota.

00:14:01.960 They're all talking about the importance of representing Somalia and not America.

00:14:07.760 Watch.

00:14:08.020 So, again, if you listen to the audio translation, that is a Maine representative, a state rep in Maine.

00:14:38.020 Maine, who is saying that Somalis should prioritize their own country, which is Somalia, and they should prioritize developing Somalia.

00:14:48.040 That's her priority as a state representative in the state of Maine. 0.99

00:14:51.860 And they want to develop Somalia, not by going back to Somalia, where they belong, but by coming here and stealing from us and sending our resources back to their home country. 1.00

00:15:03.700 That's what they want to do.

00:15:04.400 It is, in every sense, a parasitic relationship.

00:15:09.240 These are not people who have come here to help America. 0.61

00:15:13.080 They're people who have come here to take the resources and bring it back to their godforsaken, failed state country that they came from. 0.99

00:15:21.080 Now, when Americans see clips like this, you know, we don't exactly think of the Hawiye or the Darud clan, which, as far as I know, is completely unrelated to the song Sandstorm, but I'm not sure.

00:15:30.580 We just think of Somalis, and we want them out of the country, and that's the appropriate response. 1.00

00:15:37.300 But as Steve Robinson reports, there's a lot more going on under the hood.

00:15:40.860 Quote, Somali immigrants from these other clans, particularly Minnesota's large diaspora, have grown resentful of Darud's rising influence in U.S. politics.

00:15:48.680 For instance, when Nasri Warsayam, non-Darud, ran for office in Minneapolis back in 2021, Darud-aligned groups reportedly blocked him and supported an Indian-born woman instead, referring to a non-Somali over someone with a rival clan.

00:16:05.060 This intra-clan rivalry has led Hawiye, Rahanwin, and Durr members, including those from Somaliland, which flies its own flag and seeks independence from Somalia, to back non-Somali candidates.

00:16:16.740 They support Jewish incumbent Jacob Fry for a mayor over a Somali opponent from a different clan, prioritizing clan loyalty over ethnic or religious solidarity.

00:16:27.700 Again, this is American politics now.

00:16:30.780 Just wonderful.

00:16:33.180 What's the downside? I can't see one.

00:16:35.160 Now, not that I doubt Steve Robinson's reporting, but I wanted to look into the case of Nasri Warsayam to see the details of how a non-Darud politician might be shut out by Darud-aligned groups.

00:16:48.880 And just out of a morbid sense of curiosity, I wanted to get a sense of what happened here.

00:16:53.160 And I came across this video, which, again, is subtitled.

00:16:55.540 This is a former Minneapolis City Council candidate Nasri Warsayam's version of events, a version of what happened to him.

00:17:04.800 Watch.

00:17:05.280 Thank you.

00:17:20.940 I also like how all these Somali politician videos look like they were shot on camcorders

00:17:42.520 in 1993.

00:17:44.740 So they're in this country, they still have not discovered iPhones somehow.

00:17:48.040 Anyway, Nazri Warseim, the non-Darud, is explaining how Ilhan Omar and her clan blocked him from

00:17:56.000 ever getting the Democrat Party's endorsement.

00:17:57.920 Instead of backing Warseim, the Democrats backed an ethnically Pakistani woman named Aisha

00:18:03.480 Chugtai.

00:18:05.360 Quote, they shouldn't be teaming up to block me from ever getting the party's endorsement

00:18:08.780 simply because I come from Mogadishu, he said.

00:18:12.460 And apparently people from Mogadishu belong to a separate clan from the Darud known as

00:18:16.920 the Hawiye.

00:18:18.060 Now, the official story is that the state Democrat Party known as the DFL blocked Warseim

00:18:22.320 because of an altercation at a political convention and not because of his clan identity.

00:18:26.520 This is from the local Fox affiliate back in 2023.

00:18:29.860 Quote, the DFL's executive committee voted to approve bylaws banning Warseim on Tuesday

00:18:34.980 after the organization conducted an investigation into the chaos of the Ward 10 convention that

00:18:39.760 concluded Warseim's campaign was responsible for the conflicts that emerged after his supporters

00:18:45.080 rushed toward the stage when incumbent Aisha Chugtai was about to speak. 0.86

00:18:49.400 And by the way, here's what that confrontation looked like.

00:18:52.860 This is what a political convention in Minnesota looks like.

00:18:57.820 This is what a political convention in Minnesota looks like now.

00:19:23.320 And sounds like.

00:19:28.280 Import the third world, you end up with third world political conventions. 0.68

00:19:31.800 Import the third world, you end up with third world politics. 0.98

00:19:34.460 That's the way it goes.

00:19:35.340 Now, you could debate whether this altercation is worth banning a candidate from participating

00:19:40.680 in a political party that's supposedly committed to democracy.

00:19:43.000 But at a minimum, based on this footage, it's plausible that Warseim has a point.

00:19:47.040 It looks a lot like his supporters feel they were being robbed and mistreated.

00:19:50.300 And now he was taken out in a backroom deal.

00:19:53.920 Certainly, there are Somali news outlets that seem to think these backroom deals are becoming

00:19:57.700 more and more common.

00:19:58.420 This is a report from Waaga Kusab Media, which is obviously a name you can trust, even if you

00:20:06.600 can't pronounce it.

00:20:07.760 Quote, members of the Hawie community who form a significant portion of the Somali population

00:20:11.760 in Minneapolis, originally from Mogadishu, Gamudag, and Hirshabel, southwest and Jubbaland

00:20:19.540 regions, have been emboldened by Jacob Fry's win and are now vowing to reshape future elections,

00:20:25.180 including the next congressional race involving Ilhan Omar.

00:20:29.980 Now, of course, that would be the best possible outcome here, short of mass deportation.

00:20:34.520 Imagine if Somalis are responsible for ousting Ilhan Omar from Congress. 0.75

00:20:40.440 How exactly would they spin that outcome on MSNBC or MSNOW or whatever it's called now?

00:20:46.060 And how would Ilhan Omar respond in that scenario?

00:20:48.640 What exactly would that meltdown look like?

00:20:50.500 Well, courtesy of Ilhan Omar herself, we actually don't need to guess the answer to that question.

00:20:56.320 Watch.

00:20:57.640 I have no worry.

00:20:59.260 I don't know how they take away my citizenship and, like, deport me.

00:21:02.580 But I don't even know, like, why that's, like, such a scary threat.

00:21:07.160 Like, I'm not the eight-year-old who escaped war anymore.

00:21:10.200 I'm grown.

00:21:11.040 My kids are grown.

00:21:12.160 Like, I can go live wherever I want.

00:21:16.200 So apparently she doesn't mind the idea of being deported.

00:21:20.960 She certainly wouldn't miss anything about this country, which she openly despises.

00:21:25.760 So there's a real win-win possibility here.

00:21:28.320 All that's needed is for the Trump administration or the Somali community, as the case may be, to step up to the plate.

00:21:34.580 And then once Ilhan Omar is gone, we would need a lot more deportations all over the country.

00:21:41.700 Somali tribal conflicts aren't just spilling out in the open in Minnesota and Maine.

00:21:46.980 There's also a very large Somali presence in Ohio.

00:21:50.240 In fact, the Somali population in Columbus is the second largest in the entire country.

00:21:55.500 The clans in Columbus include the Darud clan, which is the majority, as well as the Haiwiye, the Durr, and so on.

00:22:01.320 So the demographic makeup is a lot like Minneapolis.

00:22:03.920 The same is true in the Seattle metro area, where tens of thousands of Somalis live, for some reason.

00:22:11.280 As all these populations grow, the tribal tensions are going to become more pronounced and more violent.

00:22:17.740 I mean, we can all see that happening.

00:22:22.340 More and more candidates will be elected or sabotaged on the basis of their clan, just like we're seeing in Minneapolis.

00:22:28.740 All of that is inevitable.

00:22:30.300 And in return for all of this, as we tolerate all of this, as we bring in these third-world Somalis from their hellhole country, 1.00

00:22:43.940 and we watch tribal warfare unfold in our own communities, what do we get out of it?

00:22:52.760 That's always my question.

00:22:56.180 What do we receive in return as Americans?

00:23:00.040 Well, we receive nothing.

00:23:02.300 Nothing at all.

00:23:03.640 We get nothing out of any of this.

00:23:06.520 For incubating all of this tribal warfare, what do we get?

00:23:10.320 Well, we'll be defrauded, humiliated, and then discarded the moment we're not useful to these people.

00:23:18.740 They'll either destroy each other, or they'll destroy us first.

00:23:21.520 There's no other possible outcome if we allow this to continue.

00:23:26.560 So we should not allow it to continue.

00:23:30.320 Revoke Somalia's temporary protected status, which never should have been granted in the first place. 0.99

00:23:35.980 We gave the designation to Somalia in the early 1990s because of the collapse of the failed authoritarian regime that Ilhan Omar's father worked for.

00:23:43.900 And we've kept renewing it ever since.

00:23:46.780 For no reason.

00:23:48.620 For no reason that benefits us.

00:23:51.520 And that needs to end.

00:23:53.820 And the deportations need to begin.

00:23:57.500 You know, we need to, Trump should announce, okay, this is over.

00:24:00.960 We are not accepting any more Somalis. 1.00

00:24:02.920 Period. 0.98

00:24:04.460 Can't come here.

00:24:05.220 You got the whole rest of the world you can go to or stay in your own country.

00:24:07.840 Not here.

00:24:08.600 Sorry.

00:24:09.280 We don't need you.

00:24:10.220 We don't want you.

00:24:10.980 You don't contribute anything.

00:24:11.840 It doesn't help us.

00:24:13.440 Sorry.

00:24:14.120 No.

00:24:14.840 Doors closed.

00:24:16.860 We need to stop pretending that we're responsible for housing foreigners because they can't manage their own countries.

00:24:22.100 And if we don't.

00:24:23.280 If we allow this favorable treatment to continue, then we're all going to get a very detailed clan by clan up close and personal history lesson as to why exactly countries like Somalia have torn themselves apart.

00:24:36.160 And by that point, once we've all learned that lesson, we'll be left with nothing.

00:24:43.620 And the Somalis, including Ilhan Omar, will have happily moved on to the next country. 0.99

00:24:48.440 That they will strip mine, denigrate, and ultimately destroy. 0.98

00:24:54.540 But, really, it's up to us.

00:24:57.680 Now, let's get to our five headlines.

00:25:04.780 Let's be honest.

00:25:06.100 Most dress clothes are uncomfortable, high maintenance, and just don't feel very good to wear.

00:25:11.060 Spend too much time ironing, dry cleaning, and tugging at stiff fabrics.

00:25:15.020 That's why I love Mizzen and Main.

00:25:17.300 They make classic menswear with performance fabrics.

00:25:19.960 So, looking sharp doesn't have to be a hassle.

00:25:21.700 These guys actually invented the performance fabric dress shirt over 10 years ago, and they've been perfecting it ever since with modern fabrics that really deliver.

00:25:29.620 Their shirts and pants look refined and professional.

00:25:31.840 But here's the thing.

00:25:32.640 They are stretchy, lightweight, moisture-wicking, and wrinkle-resistant.

00:25:37.040 Everything's completely machine washing.

00:25:38.780 So, no more ironing or dry cleaning runs.

00:25:41.800 Nothing like that.

00:25:42.740 So, they completely did away with the worst part about dressing nice.

00:25:45.920 As a busy guy with a family, that's a game-changer for me.

00:25:48.240 The moment you put their clothes on, you feel the difference.

00:25:50.840 You get that professional style without sacrificing comfort, whether you're in the office, traveling for work, or even just out on the weekend.

00:25:58.520 I love my Mizzen and Main clothes.

00:25:59.940 Quality is great.

00:26:01.240 But my favorite part is that it looks ready to wear after being cleaned, and I don't have to iron.

00:26:06.240 I can just take it out of the dryer, throw it on.

00:26:08.660 That's what I'm looking for.

00:26:10.320 Laziness and style.

00:26:11.540 Those are the two.

00:26:12.280 That's the combination.

00:26:13.280 That's the sweet spot for me, and Mizzen and Main has that covered.

00:26:15.860 Right now, Mizzen and Main is offering our listeners 20% off your first purchase at MizzenandMain.com, promo code Walsh20.

00:26:39.760 When something actually makes a difference in your life, when it's built to last and makes every single day better,

00:26:44.380 that's worth paying attention to.

00:26:46.240 Ever since we got Bowling Branch sheets on our bed, I've understood what people mean when they say sleep changes everything.

00:26:52.220 Sliding into bedding that feels good isn't just nice.

00:26:54.840 It's non-negotiable now.

00:27:07.800 I'd start with their signature sheets, if I were you.

00:27:10.160 They've really nailed that sweet spot between being soft and breathable, which makes a huge difference for getting good sleep.

00:27:17.240 The cool thing is they actually get softer every time you wash them instead of continually disintegrating like cheap box store sheets.

00:27:23.280 All their stuff is worth checking out.

00:28:15.500 Okay, let's talk about this.

00:28:18.420 Colin Rugg reports.

00:28:21.540 Justin, man accused of throwing coins and shouting F for the Jews at Dave Portnoy inside a Mississippi pizza shop has been charged, according to TMZ.

00:28:30.360 20-year-old Patrick McClintock has been arrested and charged with disturbing the peace.

00:28:35.800 Sergeant Brandon Lovelady says,

00:28:40.740 Every person has the right to feel safe and respected in our community.

00:28:44.280 Offensive words alone are protected, but when behavior disrupts a public event or risks violence, the Starkville Police Department will take steps to help maintain safety and security.

00:28:53.780 So, this guy's been arrested and charged with a crime, with disturbing the peace is the crime, for yelling F the Jews at Dave Portnoy when Portnoy was, I guess, in town doing one of his pizza review things.

00:29:06.840 And this guy came up and yelled at him.

00:29:08.540 Here's the video of the incident.

00:29:10.460 Watch. 1.00

00:29:10.600 Hey, fuck the Jews! 1.00

00:29:15.140 Oh, it's not cool! 1.00

00:29:18.480 Why don't you come in the camera, buddy?

00:29:21.600 Why don't you come here?

00:29:22.620 Oh my gosh!

00:29:37.900 That was awful! 1.00

00:29:39.020 Hey, fuck you! 1.00

00:29:41.700 Hey, fuck you! 1.00

00:29:42.340 Hey, fuck you! 1.00

00:29:43.460 Go away! 1.00

00:29:44.740 Hey, hey, hey! 0.55

00:29:45.680 Hey! 0.99

00:29:46.740 A couple things to say about this.

00:29:48.140 First of all, obviously the kid is wrong, obviously, for behaving that way. 1.00

00:29:54.600 It's gross, vulgar, crass, really stupid, and evil. 1.00

00:29:58.980 And expressing hatred like that towards an entire group of people is evil. 1.00

00:30:03.520 And this was, of course, unprovoked, not that it would be okay if it was provoked, but Portnoy was just doing a pizza review, and I don't think there was any prior confrontation at all with this guy.

00:30:14.600 He just walked up and yelled at him.

00:30:16.780 So, he's in the wrong, totally and completely, no doubt about that.

00:30:22.260 Does that mean he should have been charged with a crime?

00:30:25.580 Well, that's a different question, clearly.

00:30:27.980 There are a lot of really bad things people can say that we would agree, or most of us would agree, should not be crimes.

00:30:36.560 That's part of what free speech is all about.

00:30:39.340 And we should be clear that he was charged for the words he said.

00:30:44.420 I know some people are trying to pretend that he was charged because he threw coins.

00:30:47.980 You can hear in the video, you can hear the coins hit the ground.

00:30:51.960 But he wasn't charged for throwing coins.

00:30:53.560 It wasn't like this was an assault charge because he threw coins at Dave Portnoy.

00:30:58.520 The coins didn't even hit Dave, as far as I could tell.

00:31:00.200 They fall right in front of him.

00:31:01.560 And you could see Dave looking down at the coins as they hit the ground.

00:31:06.700 So, this was not an assault charge.

00:31:08.200 This was, you know, throwing a couple of coins on the ground is rude, definitely.

00:31:13.640 It's not a criminal act.

00:31:16.060 Okay, throwing coins on the ground, like in any of the contexts, and you wouldn't be charged with a crime for that.

00:31:20.080 This is not attempted murder, murdered by pennies or something.

00:31:23.080 So, the coins really had nothing to do with the charge.

00:31:26.020 The charge is not assault.

00:31:27.680 It's not battery.

00:31:29.380 It's disturbing the peace. 0.98

00:31:31.560 So, he was charged for yelling the words, the words, F the Jews.

00:31:36.680 And the police sergeant said that he was disruptive and that Dave Portnoy has a right to feel safe and respected, quote unquote, in the community.

00:31:45.740 So, that is the logic behind the charge.

00:31:49.320 So, here's my take on this.

00:31:50.600 And there are some people who are celebrating the fact that this guy was hit with charges.

00:31:56.020 They say that it's great that he was hit with the charges.

00:31:57.980 There are others who are saying, well, this is an infringement on free speech.

00:32:01.540 And so, they're taking kind of an absolutist free speech position that, hey, it's a horrible thing to say, but it's why we have free speech rights.

00:32:09.040 You know, you don't need the First Amendment to protect things that everybody agrees with and everyone thinks they're good.

00:32:13.460 You need it for the things that people find objectionable.

00:32:17.580 So, that's kind of the two sides on this.

00:32:19.520 And I'm looking at it from a different angle.

00:32:21.600 Because I think in a vacuum, you could make a reasonable argument for either position.

00:32:27.980 But here's my problem.

00:32:30.280 You know, keep this Dave Portnoy incident in mind as we move on to another incident that also happened this week.

00:32:37.880 Actually, this was last night.

00:32:39.000 So, last night at Berkeley, leftist Antifa protesters, terrorists, actually, they've been designated a terror group.

00:32:47.480 So, if that means anything, then, I mean, well, that's part of the thing here.

00:32:51.020 Does that mean anything?

00:32:51.940 Does that have any implication at all?

00:32:53.300 Well, so far, it seems like it hasn't.

00:32:56.620 So far, it seems like calling them a domestic terrorist organization has no implication to them whatsoever.

00:33:03.420 So, but Antifa terrorist showed up at a TPUSA event.

00:33:08.280 And by the way, this was an event featuring, apparently, Rob Schneider and Christian apologist Frank Turek,

00:33:13.940 who was a close friend of Charlie's, and someone who's also done a lot of great work, by the way.

00:33:23.480 So, these are not right-wing extremists at this event.

00:33:27.020 I mean, Rob Schneider is a nice guy.

00:33:30.160 I've met him a few times.

00:33:31.560 Very nice guy.

00:33:33.520 Very much a moderate conservative.

00:33:37.260 You know, and I think that he would agree with that label. 0.99

00:33:40.220 This is not a far-right person.

00:33:42.900 This is Rob Schneider.

00:33:44.780 And Antifa showed up anyway and had a hissy fit over a Rob Schneider event.

00:33:52.600 And their protest-slash-riot went on for many hours late into the night.

00:33:58.000 But I want to show you one.

00:34:00.540 We'll look at a couple things.

00:34:01.500 But I first just want to show you this.

00:34:02.660 So, this is one piece of footage from earlier in the day when the crowd is chanting,

00:34:08.620 and they're chanting about Charlie Kirk, or they're referencing Charlie Kirk.

00:34:12.880 And listen to what they say.

00:34:14.580 Dead homie! 1.00

00:34:15.720 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:17.460 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:19.240 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:21.020 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:22.740 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:24.520 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:26.240 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:27.960 You're dead homie! 1.00

00:34:28.700 No KKK, no fascist USA! 1.00

00:34:30.880 No I, no KKK, no fascist USA!

00:34:35.060 So, just to be clear, if you couldn't make it out,

00:34:38.620 they were chanting, 0.99

00:34:40.580 F your dead homie! 1.00

00:34:43.480 Obviously referencing Charlie Kirk, 0.97

00:34:45.600 who was killed,

00:34:48.100 and now they're saying, 1.00

00:34:50.840 F him, F your dead homie! 1.00

00:34:53.100 Now, as I mentioned, as the night went on, 1.00

00:34:54.780 they got more belligerent.

00:34:56.020 They got more and more belligerent about Rob Schneider speaking at the college.

00:35:00.920 And here they are later in the night,

00:35:02.500 trying to cross over the barricades that the cops set up.

00:35:06.840 And we could,

00:35:08.180 when you look at this footage,

00:35:09.200 it's indistinguishable from any other Antifa riot over the last decade.

00:35:15.300 It's just the same thing over and over and over again.

00:35:18.260 They're not stopping.

00:35:19.560 They're not calming down.

00:35:21.020 They're not pulling back.

00:35:22.300 They're not moderating.

00:35:23.900 They're not becoming less violent.

00:35:25.420 Not at all.

00:35:27.520 Because why would they?

00:35:28.520 They have not suffered any real consequences.

00:35:31.100 So why would they?

00:35:33.200 So here they are later in the night.

00:35:34.440 Watch this. 0.99

00:35:34.800 What the f*** is wrong with you? 1.00

00:35:56.580 What the f*** is wrong with you? 0.99

00:35:58.920 So again, that's a scene that we've witnessed a million times. 0.99

00:36:24.760 But let's go back to the other video. 0.99

00:36:27.060 So they're chanting, F your dead homie. 0.99

00:36:31.440 And you think about that Dave Portnoy video, F the Jews. 0.99

00:36:36.340 Here's my question. 0.99

00:36:37.900 If we're going to arrest a kid who yelled, F the Jews, 0.95

00:36:44.580 why haven't we done? 0.99

00:36:48.020 Why isn't that every single one of these Antifa thugs 0.98

00:36:51.240 are under arrest right now for yelling, F your dead homie? 0.76

00:36:54.480 Why aren't all of them under arrest right now?

00:36:59.680 How could it possibly be justified to arrest the former,

00:37:03.700 the guy who said, F your Jews, and not the latter? 1.00

00:37:06.980 The whole crowd of people yelling, F your dead homie, 1.00

00:37:09.820 after Charlie Kirk was just assassinated. 0.98

00:37:14.040 Especially if the pretense is disturbing the peace.

00:37:19.420 Well, who disturbed the peace more between those two incidents?

00:37:22.720 Can anyone possibly argue that the Portnoy guy

00:37:26.400 disturbed the peace, but these thugs did not?

00:37:31.440 Can anyone make that argument?

00:37:34.220 And this is the problem.

00:37:35.240 As far as I know, there were maybe a couple of arrests

00:37:37.440 at Berkeley last night.

00:37:39.520 Maybe.

00:37:41.240 There certainly were not mass arrests.

00:37:44.380 They weren't showing up with a bus

00:37:45.800 and just throwing everybody in handcuffs and chains

00:37:48.680 and throwing them into the bus and taking them to jail.

00:37:50.260 They didn't do that.

00:37:51.000 They never do that.

00:37:54.740 And yet this other guy was arrested.

00:37:57.080 So this is the issue.

00:37:57.920 Now, look, I realize it's easy to deflect here

00:38:02.280 and say, well, these are different jurisdictions.

00:38:04.980 I understand that.

00:38:06.360 Okay?

00:38:06.660 I know how the law works.

00:38:07.700 I understand these are different jurisdictions.

00:38:10.520 But, you know, you're hiding from the point

00:38:13.160 that I'm trying to make here.

00:38:13.980 The point is that across the country,

00:38:18.560 as we have seen on, like, a national scale,

00:38:22.820 the law is not evenly applied.

00:38:25.660 That's the point. 0.99

00:38:26.640 These leftist scumbags are still, 1.00

00:38:29.060 even now under this administration, 1.00

00:38:31.060 they are still given a pass.

00:38:33.940 They are still treated with kid gloves.

00:38:36.660 They are still given carte blanche.

00:38:38.780 And we're all sick of it.

00:38:43.920 It's not just that we're sick of it.

00:38:45.120 It can't continue this way.

00:38:47.700 Everything breaks down

00:38:48.940 when you've got a certain group

00:38:50.720 and you look at it and say,

00:38:51.220 well, they can do whatever they want, basically.

00:38:52.720 The rules don't apply to them.

00:38:54.320 We're going to apply the rules

00:38:55.740 as strictly as we can

00:38:57.520 to all these people over here,

00:38:58.680 but not them.

00:39:00.440 It doesn't work that way.

00:39:01.720 You cannot have a society that way.

00:39:05.020 Certainly not a civilized one. 0.91

00:39:06.360 You know, with the F the Jews guy, 1.00

00:39:12.680 whatever his name was,

00:39:14.340 what happened is that the authorities decided

00:39:17.660 that they objected to his behavior so much

00:39:22.220 that they would find something to charge him with.

00:39:25.900 Is it even going to stick?

00:39:27.360 Is a disturbing the peace charge going to stick?

00:39:29.820 I don't know.

00:39:32.760 You could argue it's like,

00:39:34.060 it's kind of thin gruel here.

00:39:35.800 I mean, he shouted the thing,

00:39:37.820 but it was over in two seconds.

00:39:40.340 How much was the peace disturbed?

00:39:42.300 I don't know.

00:39:44.720 But it doesn't matter.

00:39:45.860 Like they just said,

00:39:46.660 okay, we have these laws on the books

00:39:48.040 and we find that behavior so objectionable.

00:39:51.660 We're just not going to tolerate it.

00:39:53.860 And so if you do that,

00:39:55.120 we're going to find something to charge you with.

00:39:56.940 We're going to look in the books

00:39:58.700 and we're going to find it in there.

00:40:01.320 And these laws are on the books

00:40:02.700 and we're going to try to apply them.

00:40:05.800 Maybe you beat it in court,

00:40:07.060 but hey, good luck.

00:40:08.680 And at the very least,

00:40:09.420 you're going to have to do that.

00:40:10.260 At the very least,

00:40:10.940 you're going to get arrested.

00:40:12.380 You're going to get your mugshot taken.

00:40:13.800 Your mugshot's going to be out in the public

00:40:15.200 and you're going to end up in court

00:40:16.820 and you're going to have to fight it in court.

00:40:17.840 So at the very least,

00:40:18.500 this is going to be a major inconvenience for you.

00:40:20.300 So at a minimum,

00:40:21.360 that will be the penalty.

00:40:22.360 So that's the attitude with somebody like this.

00:40:28.080 And that's my question.

00:40:31.200 Why isn't this attitude ever, 0.91

00:40:33.140 ever, ever applied to these leftist thugs? 0.76

00:40:39.820 And it doesn't do any good to say, 0.73

00:40:41.700 well, this is Berkeley.

00:40:42.640 It's different.

00:40:42.920 No, it doesn't matter where it happens.

00:40:44.580 It doesn't matter where it happens.

00:40:46.380 It's the same story.

00:40:47.860 Okay.

00:40:48.700 Everywhere.

00:40:49.140 And we all know it.

00:40:50.120 So why aren't we looking for anything

00:40:53.880 and everything to charge these people with?

00:40:56.400 Every time they gather together

00:40:58.920 and start behaving this way,

00:41:00.220 why aren't we saying,

00:41:01.260 you know, I'm going to look for anything

00:41:02.300 I can possibly charge you with.

00:41:03.960 Every single thing.

00:41:07.360 Maybe it'll stick.

00:41:08.260 Maybe it won't.

00:41:09.040 Maybe some of it will stick.

00:41:10.000 Maybe, but we're going to charge you with everything.

00:41:14.560 I mean, disturbing the peace

00:41:16.120 could be thrown at all of them.

00:41:17.880 Every single protest,

00:41:20.200 you could charge all of them with it every time.

00:41:24.420 You could hit them with a lot more than that,

00:41:26.880 but certainly at least that.

00:41:28.680 And yet it never is.

00:41:31.980 So this is the double standard.

00:41:33.340 This is the two-tiered justice system.

00:41:34.780 This is the problem.

00:41:38.340 I mean, you could make an argument,

00:41:40.580 a reasonable argument,

00:41:41.900 for not charging any of the people

00:41:45.780 that we've talked about.

00:41:46.600 Not charging the Portnoy guy

00:41:47.900 and even not charging the leftist.

00:41:51.760 You could make that argument.

00:41:53.160 I mean, you could make a,

00:41:54.700 just like absolutist sort of free speech argument,

00:41:57.960 and you could do that.

00:42:00.060 You could also make a reasonable argument

00:42:01.400 for charging all of them.

00:42:04.160 But you cannot make a reasonable argument

00:42:06.060 for charging only the Portnoy guy,

00:42:08.000 but not these leftists.

00:42:08.880 You can't make that argument,

00:42:11.540 and yet this is what happens.

00:42:14.380 This is the dynamic that nobody can defend.

00:42:17.860 Nobody can rationalize it.

00:42:20.140 Nobody can explain it.

00:42:21.980 Well, we can explain it,

00:42:22.880 but nobody can defend it, certainly.

00:42:25.740 And yet it's,

00:42:27.240 this is it.

00:42:29.960 Now, by the way,

00:42:30.700 as attendees left the event last night in Berkeley,

00:42:33.120 they were made to walk through a gauntlet

00:42:35.640 of leftists screaming at them

00:42:37.560 as they were leaving.

00:42:40.080 And here's that, watch.

00:42:41.840 All right.

00:43:11.300 So...

00:43:11.840 Disturbing the peace?

00:43:16.040 Harassment?

00:43:18.040 Yeah, there it is.

00:43:22.540 These are a masked mob

00:43:25.400 of people who have already expressed their desire 0.99

00:43:31.360 to see people like you killed,

00:43:33.060 and they are screaming at you. 0.98

00:43:34.480 A lot of F-bombs being thrown.

00:43:38.440 None of them were arrested.

00:43:39.520 None of them will face any consequence.

00:43:44.620 At all.

00:43:46.360 Even though they are part of a group

00:43:48.080 that was just declared

00:43:49.160 a domestic terrorist organization.

00:43:50.500 And as I said,

00:43:56.000 this is just not sustainable.

00:43:58.200 It just isn't.

00:44:01.200 All right.

00:44:01.800 Here's something

00:44:02.420 also grotesque.

00:44:04.620 Stephanie Miller

00:44:05.260 is a liberal radio host,

00:44:07.360 apparently,

00:44:07.820 and she recently

00:44:08.780 met Representative Jasmine Crockett

00:44:11.380 for some reason or another.

00:44:14.000 And so here's how that went.

00:44:18.260 This is the caption

00:44:19.320 that she wrote on X.

00:44:21.740 Why, yes,

00:44:22.260 I did kiss the sneakers

00:44:23.660 of Jasmine Crockett,

00:44:25.600 and I do worship the ground

00:44:27.040 she walks on.

00:44:27.960 And she was lovely about it.

00:44:29.780 And sure enough,

00:44:31.900 you can see the photos there.

00:44:33.560 There are the photos.

00:44:34.380 She's on her hands and knees

00:44:35.560 kissing the feet

00:44:36.980 of Jasmine Crockett.

00:44:39.280 Literally prostrate on the ground

00:44:41.000 before her,

00:44:42.080 worshiping her, 0.98

00:44:43.440 licking her shoes. 0.59

00:44:45.880 And then you got a bunch 0.84

00:44:46.740 of other women

00:44:47.300 sort of standing around,

00:44:48.980 smiling approvingly.

00:44:52.080 There's one woman.

00:44:52.980 I don't know,

00:44:53.420 that woman on the bottom left. 0.99

00:44:55.920 Look at the bottom left. 0.99

00:44:59.360 This woman has gone insane 1.00

00:45:02.360 with joy.

00:45:04.100 She is so pleased

00:45:07.660 by this spectacle

00:45:09.160 of another white woman 0.89

00:45:10.880 bowing before a black woman 1.00

00:45:12.220 that look at her. 0.99

00:45:14.280 She's in a state

00:45:15.860 of psychotic ecstasy over it.

00:45:19.480 She cannot contain herself.

00:45:22.140 And just pure joy

00:45:23.420 at this humiliation ritual 0.64

00:45:26.760 that's unfolding.

00:45:29.400 I can't think of a better

00:45:30.600 encapsulation of modern leftism

00:45:32.280 than this.

00:45:32.660 I mean, this is it.

00:45:33.200 This is the most,

00:45:33.680 this is the most perfect photo

00:45:35.640 ever taken

00:45:36.400 when it comes to

00:45:37.940 illustrating

00:45:39.080 the leftist mind virus.

00:45:41.340 You'll never see a better one.

00:45:42.740 I mean, this is a,

00:45:43.640 the four,

00:45:44.320 the four of them together,

00:45:45.520 those four photos.

00:45:48.240 A middle-aged liberal white woman 1.00

00:45:50.520 on her hands and knees

00:45:51.400 kissing the feet

00:45:52.380 of a semi-literate 0.99

00:45:53.800 black DEI congresswoman

00:45:56.840 who isn't even qualified 0.98

00:45:58.760 to be a waitress

00:45:59.620 at Waffle House

00:46:00.420 and much less sit in Congress.

00:46:02.240 And yet,

00:46:02.740 and yet here she is.

00:46:05.020 And amazingly,

00:46:06.060 of course,

00:46:06.560 these are also the people

00:46:07.640 who claim

00:46:08.260 that Trump voters

00:46:10.200 are in a cult.

00:46:13.380 These are the people who,

00:46:14.520 these are also the people

00:46:15.240 who go around

00:46:15.920 chanting no kings.

00:46:19.320 In fact,

00:46:20.060 I looked this up

00:46:20.860 and unsurprisingly,

00:46:22.500 Stephanie Miller herself,

00:46:24.320 when I checked this,

00:46:26.240 she has attended

00:46:26.960 multiple

00:46:27.820 no kings rallies.

00:46:29.600 She,

00:46:29.780 she has given speeches

00:46:31.520 at no kings rallies.

00:46:34.000 So she's been at the front

00:46:35.460 of the line

00:46:35.960 marching,

00:46:36.700 saying no kings.

00:46:37.600 and yet,

00:46:41.060 here she is

00:46:42.420 kissing the feet

00:46:43.660 of a politician

00:46:45.280 while claiming

00:46:47.540 that she doesn't want

00:46:48.240 a king.

00:46:50.120 Well,

00:46:50.560 if you don't want

00:46:50.920 a king,

00:46:51.340 Stephanie,

00:46:51.860 maybe,

00:46:52.200 maybe the first step

00:46:53.440 is to get off

00:46:54.420 of your knees, 1.00

00:46:56.060 you slave. 0.99

00:46:59.440 Maybe, 0.93

00:47:00.120 if you don't want kings, 0.61

00:47:01.200 maybe remove your lips

00:47:03.020 from that politician's

00:47:05.240 shoes.

00:47:05.780 if you don't want kings,

00:47:07.500 that's the first step.

00:47:09.380 First step is

00:47:10.380 take your mouth 1.00

00:47:11.580 off of their feet. 0.89

00:47:13.420 That's the first thing

00:47:14.420 I would recommend.

00:47:16.620 You peasant. 0.96

00:47:18.680 You surf.

00:47:21.240 Bowing before this woman. 0.99

00:47:22.760 And look,

00:47:23.500 we,

00:47:23.820 as Americans,

00:47:24.820 we,

00:47:25.380 we,

00:47:25.840 we do not bow

00:47:26.920 before any man 0.88

00:47:28.040 or woman.

00:47:29.640 You know,

00:47:30.320 it is,

00:47:30.540 it is disgraceful

00:47:31.520 to do that.

00:47:32.060 It's the most un-American 1.00

00:47:32.840 thing you could possibly do.

00:47:34.180 Americans bow before God 1.00

00:47:35.440 and God alone.

00:47:36.800 But to make matters worse,

00:47:38.740 you are bowing

00:47:39.560 before the most 0.96

00:47:40.400 mediocre human 0.94

00:47:41.600 who has ever lived 0.97

00:47:42.760 on the planet.

00:47:44.800 The only thing

00:47:45.820 impressive about

00:47:46.600 Jasmine Crockett

00:47:48.020 is how unimpressive

00:47:49.080 she is.

00:47:50.600 The most unimpressive 0.60

00:47:51.960 nothing of a person

00:47:53.260 who has ever lived.

00:47:54.380 A person who is 0.85

00:47:55.120 so thoroughly

00:47:55.880 middling

00:47:56.880 and uninspiring

00:47:58.760 that in an actual

00:48:00.980 meritocracy

00:48:01.660 she would not

00:48:03.540 advance,

00:48:04.580 certainly not beyond

00:48:05.640 the position of like

00:48:06.700 shift manager

00:48:08.280 at Dairy Queen.

00:48:09.740 And I don't even,

00:48:10.780 and she wouldn't even

00:48:11.380 be good at that.

00:48:12.920 So I don't mean

00:48:13.640 this as any slight

00:48:14.380 of the shift managers

00:48:15.880 at Dairy Queen,

00:48:16.680 but she's,

00:48:17.900 she's the kind of, 0.99

00:48:18.940 she's the one

00:48:19.760 who she shows up

00:48:21.040 when you ask to speak

00:48:21.820 to a manager

00:48:22.340 because they got

00:48:23.020 your order wrong

00:48:23.640 but they won't fix it

00:48:24.540 because they don't care.

00:48:25.220 And then she appears

00:48:26.620 and she has an even 0.90

00:48:28.020 worse attitude

00:48:28.920 than the employee

00:48:30.220 you were just dealing with.

00:48:31.660 So that's Jasmine Crockett.

00:48:34.500 That was her real

00:48:35.740 like calling in life.

00:48:39.580 To be a,

00:48:40.460 to be a Dairy Queen 0.95

00:48:41.440 shift manager

00:48:42.080 with a terrible attitude.

00:48:45.740 And,

00:48:46.360 uh,

00:48:47.420 yet here she is.

00:48:48.660 You know,

00:48:49.240 that should have been

00:48:49.820 the highest rung

00:48:50.660 and yet,

00:48:51.300 uh,

00:48:51.980 she reached

00:48:52.620 all the way

00:48:53.360 to Congress

00:48:53.980 because

00:48:54.540 the left,

00:48:55.500 as we see here, 0.55

00:48:56.620 worships mediocrity.

00:48:58.680 I mean,

00:48:59.340 literally worships it

00:49:00.500 as long as it's 0.99

00:49:02.940 black mediocrity. 1.00

00:49:03.900 They worship 1.00

00:49:04.400 black mediocrity 1.00

00:49:05.340 and, 0.99

00:49:06.240 uh,

00:49:06.460 and then,

00:49:07.000 you know,

00:49:08.620 it's important

00:49:09.640 to add that stipulation.

00:49:11.820 Okay,

00:49:12.400 let's play this.

00:49:13.060 This is from 60 Minutes

00:49:14.340 and they're trying

00:49:16.740 to explain

00:49:17.480 why it's terrible

00:49:19.260 that federal funding

00:49:20.380 was cut off

00:49:21.540 from institutions

00:49:22.280 like Harvard

00:49:22.980 and they,

00:49:24.540 they interviewed

00:49:25.000 a Harvard researcher

00:49:26.300 who says that,

00:49:27.720 you know,

00:49:28.840 she's on the brink

00:49:29.640 of a major discovery.

00:49:30.580 In fact,

00:49:30.640 she's on the brink

00:49:31.260 of potentially

00:49:31.940 curing or preventing

00:49:33.100 breast cancer,

00:49:33.860 could save millions

00:49:34.420 of lives

00:49:34.960 and yet federal funding

00:49:36.700 was taken away

00:49:37.480 by the evil 1.00

00:49:38.920 Nazi fascists. 1.00

00:49:40.160 Millions will die 1.00

00:49:41.080 because of it.

00:49:42.060 This is what she claims.

00:49:43.880 Uh,

00:49:44.160 let's watch.

00:49:45.940 You were talking

00:49:47.320 to the American public.

00:49:49.400 What would your research

00:49:50.540 do for them?

00:49:51.720 My research

00:49:52.840 has the potential

00:49:53.760 to prevent

00:49:55.660 their daughters

00:49:56.520 and their wives

00:49:57.460 and their cousins

00:49:58.360 from developing

00:49:59.720 breast cancer

00:50:00.440 and I don't think

00:50:01.380 any taxpayer

00:50:02.260 would want to interfere

00:50:03.880 with progress

00:50:04.680 on a project like that.

00:50:06.700 Joan Brugge

00:50:07.300 is director

00:50:07.960 of the Ludwig Cancer Center

00:50:09.460 at Harvard Medical School.

00:50:11.320 For 50 years,

00:50:12.540 she has applied for

00:50:13.540 and won

00:50:14.400 competitive federal grants

00:50:16.160 that helped uncover

00:50:17.540 how tumors form

00:50:18.760 and resist treatment

00:50:20.000 and discovered

00:50:21.220 innovative therapies.

00:50:22.980 Did I send you

00:50:23.620 that note about...

00:50:24.420 When her million-dollar

00:50:25.560 annual funding

00:50:26.480 was canceled last spring,

00:50:28.320 she was leading a team

00:50:29.700 that had identified

00:50:30.720 the earliest precursors

00:50:32.360 of breast cancer.

00:50:33.880 The ultimate goal

00:50:34.580 is to find a treatment

00:50:35.860 that will eliminate

00:50:37.140 those cells

00:50:37.920 that carry the mutations.

00:50:39.380 And in effect,

00:50:40.920 prevent the cancer.

00:50:42.220 Yes,

00:50:42.820 prevent the cancer.

00:50:44.380 Last spring,

00:50:46.020 you got an email.

00:50:47.660 What did it say?

00:50:48.840 It listed two grants

00:50:50.340 from the National Institute

00:50:51.840 of Health

00:50:52.360 and said that

00:50:53.320 they were terminated.

00:50:54.860 Terminated?

00:50:55.700 Terminated.

00:50:56.780 What went through your mind?

00:50:58.280 It was just like a gut punch.

00:51:00.080 My knees buckled

00:51:01.100 and I had to sit down

00:51:02.780 because I just never imagined

00:51:04.860 that research focused

00:51:07.040 on a disease like cancer

00:51:09.120 would be canceled

00:51:10.000 for a reason

00:51:11.500 that was unrelated

00:51:12.320 to the quality of the research

00:51:13.760 or the progress

00:51:14.540 of the research.

00:51:15.760 But this was

00:51:16.620 across the board

00:51:17.720 for issues relating

00:51:18.840 to diversity

00:51:20.020 and anti-Semitism

00:51:21.040 at Harvard.

00:51:22.540 Okay, so

00:51:23.160 this is the claim.

00:51:29.940 She says

00:51:30.900 that this funding

00:51:33.480 was cut off

00:51:33.960 and so she can't

00:51:34.560 do the research.

00:51:35.140 Now, I should mention

00:51:35.800 that there are claims online,

00:51:37.660 competing claims,

00:51:38.600 credible claims,

00:51:39.160 I think,

00:51:39.820 that this woman's research 0.95

00:51:41.340 was not going to have

00:51:42.300 any significant impact

00:51:43.640 on breast cancer at all.

00:51:45.760 So, there's a guy

00:51:46.600 named Jason Locasale

00:51:47.920 responded

00:51:48.800 and he said this,

00:51:51.100 I'm actually the lead

00:51:51.960 and corresponding author

00:51:52.880 on the most cited

00:51:53.500 research paper

00:51:54.080 of this person's career.

00:51:55.380 Someone told me that today

00:51:56.260 and I verified it.

00:51:57.560 The claim that her work

00:51:58.300 has any substantial effect

00:51:59.960 on breast cancer

00:52:00.600 is a dramatic overstatement.

00:52:02.040 Like much of what's being presented

00:52:03.360 in this 60-minute segment,

00:52:04.540 it's a PR narrative

00:52:05.520 designed to grab money.

00:52:07.240 It's dishonesty

00:52:08.420 from these institutions

00:52:09.220 about what technology

00:52:10.040 from the life sciences

00:52:10.800 can actually do

00:52:11.560 and it says more

00:52:12.720 about the way universities

00:52:13.520 grift the public

00:52:14.400 for sympathy

00:52:14.980 and funding

00:52:16.040 than anything

00:52:16.920 about science itself.

00:52:18.020 So, well said

00:52:20.500 and probably all

00:52:21.920 that needs to be said

00:52:22.740 in response to this,

00:52:24.260 this is a money grab

00:52:25.320 by this woman

00:52:26.200 and by the institution

00:52:27.100 she works for.

00:52:27.940 60 Minutes

00:52:28.560 is presenting it

00:52:30.840 as uncritically,

00:52:33.680 you know,

00:52:34.140 they're presenting

00:52:34.560 this propaganda

00:52:35.220 as if it's a fact,

00:52:36.260 no pushback on it at all,

00:52:37.720 no skepticism.

00:52:39.320 I mean,

00:52:39.460 you got this researcher

00:52:40.100 sitting there saying,

00:52:40.780 you know,

00:52:41.280 I was just,

00:52:42.080 I was going to cure

00:52:42.940 breast cancer tomorrow, 0.88

00:52:44.700 you know,

00:52:45.140 and now I can't. 1.00

00:52:46.660 And this idiot reporter 1.00

00:52:47.900 sitting there like, 1.00

00:52:48.700 oh, real?

00:52:49.300 Wow.

00:52:50.440 Oh my gosh.

00:52:52.500 You mean if

00:52:53.200 we took this funding away,

00:52:55.420 you were just hours away

00:52:57.440 from curing breast cancer

00:52:59.400 and they took your funding away

00:53:00.420 and now you can't?

00:53:01.800 Well,

00:53:02.000 that must obviously be true.

00:53:03.620 That can't be anything but true.

00:53:05.060 I will ask no follow-up

00:53:06.360 questions at all.

00:53:07.180 That was his response.

00:53:11.280 But let's,

00:53:12.080 let's pretend for a moment

00:53:13.240 that she actually is

00:53:14.820 working on a

00:53:16.340 cure for breast cancer.

00:53:18.720 Let's pretend that she is 0.70

00:53:20.220 on the brink of saving

00:53:21.340 millions of lives.

00:53:22.780 Well,

00:53:23.300 think about that.

00:53:24.460 That actually makes it worse.

00:53:25.960 That makes it worse for her 0.99

00:53:27.160 and for Harvard

00:53:28.520 because that would mean

00:53:30.540 that she would be telling us

00:53:31.700 in that case

00:53:32.740 that she could cure breast cancer,

00:53:35.500 but now she's not

00:53:36.820 going to do it

00:53:38.440 because

00:53:39.480 we aren't giving her

00:53:41.020 millions of dollars

00:53:41.780 out of our own pockets,

00:53:43.300 out of the pockets

00:53:43.960 of taxpayers.

00:53:46.660 So what she's saying is,

00:53:48.640 sorry guys,

00:53:50.100 I mean,

00:53:50.520 if you gave me

00:53:51.260 another million bucks,

00:53:52.240 maybe I could save

00:53:53.020 your lives from breast cancer,

00:53:54.540 but

00:53:54.700 you won't give it to me,

00:53:56.420 so 1.00

00:53:56.640 I guess you have to die. 1.00

00:53:59.140 Sorry folks. 1.00

00:53:59.880 Meanwhile,

00:54:03.380 Harvard itself

00:54:04.240 has an endowment

00:54:05.420 that is

00:54:06.220 at this point

00:54:07.360 more than

00:54:07.960 $50 billion.

00:54:10.300 Harvard is sitting

00:54:11.300 on more than

00:54:12.500 $50 billion.

00:54:15.320 The grant

00:54:16.160 for this woman's research

00:54:17.100 was,

00:54:17.540 we were told,

00:54:18.040 a million dollars

00:54:18.880 a year.

00:54:20.260 That's about,

00:54:21.180 I'm not good at math,

00:54:22.320 that's about

00:54:22.680 .002%

00:54:24.980 of Harvard's endowment.

00:54:26.780 It's the equivalent

00:54:27.820 of

00:54:28.360 if you had

00:54:29.640 a million dollars

00:54:30.320 in the bank

00:54:30.740 and someone came up

00:54:31.620 to you and said,

00:54:32.200 hey,

00:54:32.280 I could cure cancer,

00:54:33.220 I just need some money.

00:54:34.180 Oh,

00:54:34.320 how much do you need?

00:54:35.020 20 bucks.

00:54:36.660 And you said,

00:54:37.540 no,

00:54:37.760 I'm sorry,

00:54:38.120 can't afford it.

00:54:39.700 Go get a grant,

00:54:40.940 I don't know,

00:54:41.300 get it from the taxpayer,

00:54:42.300 get everyone to chip in,

00:54:43.400 I can't,

00:54:43.920 can't afford it,

00:54:44.600 sorry,

00:54:44.780 can't give you 20 bucks

00:54:45.600 to cure cancer.

00:54:47.300 Hey,

00:54:47.620 it's not my fault,

00:54:48.300 it's all their fault.

00:54:50.860 It's the taxpayer's fault.

00:54:52.140 What do you want me to do?

00:54:54.420 I give you 20 bucks,

00:54:55.560 next thing I know,

00:54:56.060 I'm broke.

00:54:58.360 That's the equivalent

00:54:59.200 of that.

00:54:59.820 And so Harvard won't spend,

00:55:01.900 they have the money

00:55:02.760 to cure cancer

00:55:03.740 and they won't spend it.

00:55:07.480 They're hoarding the money

00:55:08.740 rather than spend

00:55:10.300 a tiny infinitesimal

00:55:11.680 fraction of it

00:55:12.520 on life-saving research.

00:55:14.220 Now,

00:55:16.180 there are only two explanations

00:55:17.140 for this.

00:55:18.300 One is that her research

00:55:19.560 is not life-saving,

00:55:20.880 it's all a scam

00:55:21.600 and Harvard knows it.

00:55:24.400 Or two,

00:55:25.620 her research

00:55:26.220 is going to save lives

00:55:27.420 but Harvard would rather

00:55:29.380 millions of people die

00:55:30.900 instead of

00:55:33.200 dipping into their own coffers

00:55:34.960 and spending

00:55:36.300 a little bit of money,

00:55:37.520 like a few bucks

00:55:38.960 in basically

00:55:41.060 on curing cancer.

00:55:45.880 So they're holding

00:55:46.760 millions of cancer victims

00:55:48.000 hostage,

00:55:49.260 essentially,

00:55:50.880 in order to extract money

00:55:52.860 from the taxpayers.

00:55:55.340 Like,

00:55:55.560 that's the other possibility. 0.92

00:55:56.780 Either she is a grifter 0.99

00:55:58.100 and a scam artist 1.00

00:55:59.200 or

00:55:59.760 they are

00:56:01.820 willingly

00:56:02.500 allowing

00:56:03.580 millions to die

00:56:05.860 because they don't want

00:56:07.460 to spend their own money.

00:56:08.960 I mean,

00:56:10.740 in either case,

00:56:11.520 Harvard is the villain here.

00:56:12.560 No matter what,

00:56:13.360 no matter how you slice it,

00:56:14.560 Harvard is the villain.

00:56:16.840 But I think we all know

00:56:17.820 that the first scenario

00:56:18.660 is the reality here.

00:56:20.740 This woman is not 1.00

00:56:21.640 going to cure cancer.

00:56:22.460 She's been at it

00:56:22.980 for 50 years,

00:56:24.460 hasn't done it yet.

00:56:25.780 How many millions

00:56:26.620 have been wasted

00:56:27.360 by this woman?

00:56:28.740 How many millions

00:56:29.780 have been spent?

00:56:30.840 What does she have

00:56:31.480 to show for it?

00:56:32.380 Nothing.

00:56:34.760 And this is

00:56:35.460 most federally funded

00:56:36.700 research is like this.

00:56:38.020 It's all a scam.

00:56:38.740 It's all just

00:56:39.420 a big grift.

00:56:40.960 I mean,

00:56:41.640 there's so much

00:56:42.820 grifting going on here.

00:56:46.700 And

00:56:47.180 you got a whole class

00:56:48.780 of scientists

00:56:49.320 and researchers

00:56:50.100 who have been

00:56:50.620 bilking the taxpaying public

00:56:52.100 for decades,

00:56:53.420 extracting billions

00:56:54.560 of dollars

00:56:55.260 collectively

00:56:56.000 and have not done anything.

00:57:00.320 And it's not like

00:57:01.200 the average American,

00:57:02.160 we have no

00:57:02.680 control over this money

00:57:04.180 being sent.

00:57:05.300 We have no way

00:57:06.120 of like checking in on it.

00:57:07.280 We're also not scientists,

00:57:08.640 so we can't,

00:57:10.420 it's like,

00:57:11.120 we don't know.

00:57:13.040 So if a scientist,

00:57:14.440 if some woman 1.00

00:57:15.040 in a lab coat

00:57:15.760 sits down and says,

00:57:16.620 you know,

00:57:16.940 because of this,

00:57:18.420 that and this thing

00:57:18.900 over here,

00:57:19.400 look at this little

00:57:20.040 Petri dish,

00:57:20.660 you see,

00:57:21.100 because of that,

00:57:21.620 it shows I'm about

00:57:22.220 to cure cancer.

00:57:23.280 Well,

00:57:23.460 most of us,

00:57:24.300 if you're like me,

00:57:25.020 it's like,

00:57:25.620 that doesn't sound right,

00:57:29.000 but I can't say for sure

00:57:30.420 it's not true.

00:57:31.020 And because of that,

00:57:33.560 they're able to exploit that

00:57:34.540 to just continue

00:57:35.420 extracting billions

00:57:36.700 and billions of dollars

00:57:37.480 from us

00:57:38.480 rather than

00:57:40.880 these universities

00:57:42.720 spending their own money.

00:57:45.360 Which,

00:57:45.940 why do you have,

00:57:46.780 why do you have $50 billion

00:57:48.120 if you're not going

00:57:49.100 to spend it on that?

00:57:49.920 If the research is worthwhile

00:57:51.220 and it could really cure cancer,

00:57:52.620 why do you have the $50 billion

00:57:53.840 if not for that?

00:57:55.760 We have less than

00:57:56.640 2,000 Daily Wire

00:57:57.580 lifetime memberships remaining.

00:57:58.960 Turns out,

00:57:59.440 having all access benefits

00:58:00.660 for life with no renewals

00:58:02.080 is something everybody wants.

00:58:03.500 So,

00:58:03.840 here are your options.

00:58:04.860 You could buy one

00:58:05.560 while they're still available

00:58:06.560 or you could win mine.

00:58:07.980 That's right,

00:58:08.400 I have my very own

00:58:09.420 lifetime membership

00:58:10.040 to give away

00:58:10.560 and I made it

00:58:11.260 ridiculously easy to enter.

00:58:12.900 Download the free

00:58:13.480 Daily Wire Plus app

00:58:14.260 in the App Store,

00:58:14.880 open it,

00:58:15.620 and tap follow 0.81

00:58:16.480 under my picture.

00:58:17.860 That's it,

00:58:18.360 you're entered

00:58:18.760 and who knows,

00:58:19.660 I could be calling you

00:58:20.820 to give you my personal

00:58:22.240 lifetime membership.

00:58:23.840 But before any of that happens,

00:58:25.060 you need to download

00:58:25.680 the Daily Wire Plus app

00:58:26.560 and follow me now

00:58:28.240 to enter to win.

00:58:30.440 Finally,

00:58:31.100 this is something

00:58:31.480 I saw on social media,

00:58:32.560 not really a headline,

00:58:33.560 but Zoran Mamdani's wife,

00:58:36.500 this is just funny anyway,

00:58:38.400 so we'll mention it.

00:58:40.340 Zoran Mamdani's wife

00:58:41.320 is somebody named

00:58:41.940 Rama Duwaji

00:58:42.840 and the media says

00:58:45.000 that she's an artist.

00:58:47.080 So,

00:58:47.780 they've tried to make

00:58:49.000 a big deal

00:58:49.580 out of this woman 0.99

00:58:50.380 being an artist,

00:58:52.220 claiming that she's

00:58:52.860 an acclaimed artist

00:58:53.940 in New York.

00:58:54.900 You know,

00:58:55.160 an immigrant

00:58:56.420 artist in New York,

00:58:58.160 their favorite,

00:58:58.840 favorite kind of

00:58:59.700 immigrant female artist

00:59:01.060 from New York.

00:59:03.820 Maybe not from New York,

00:59:04.800 but she lives there.

00:59:06.760 And so,

00:59:07.640 the media can't get enough of it.

00:59:09.660 Well,

00:59:09.880 somebody went and grabbed

00:59:10.800 some of the samples

00:59:11.600 of her artwork,

00:59:12.560 which she posts

00:59:13.260 on Instagram.

00:59:14.380 This is Rama,

00:59:15.540 Rama Duwaji.

00:59:17.140 And here,

00:59:18.160 they tweeted out,

00:59:19.100 you can see the art here.

00:59:21.640 And,

00:59:22.220 I don't know,

00:59:22.480 you look at this

00:59:23.040 and you really just see

00:59:24.040 the state of art

00:59:25.080 right now.

00:59:25.880 You see what passes

00:59:26.980 for art

00:59:27.620 when you look at that.

00:59:30.480 There are two things

00:59:31.300 that really jump out

00:59:31.980 at you.

00:59:33.340 First of all,

00:59:34.520 this stuff is really bad.

00:59:37.600 I mean,

00:59:38.140 it's hideous.

00:59:39.420 I could draw better

00:59:40.560 than this.

00:59:40.980 And I'm not exaggerating.

00:59:42.380 And I'm not a good artist.

00:59:44.560 I was a good artist

00:59:45.500 in sixth grade.

00:59:46.500 I actually passed for it,

00:59:47.360 if you could believe it.

00:59:48.000 If you could believe it

00:59:48.460 in sixth grade,

00:59:48.960 I had potential

00:59:49.820 as an artist.

00:59:50.500 I really did.

00:59:51.860 I was pretty good.

00:59:52.540 In my sketch pad,

00:59:55.680 I would draw pictures

00:59:57.300 and they were decent

00:59:58.180 for a sixth grade.

00:59:58.900 I never developed past that.

01:00:00.680 I just kind of,

01:00:01.640 everyone thought I had potential,

01:00:03.160 turned out,

01:00:03.680 no,

01:00:03.880 no potential.

01:00:04.900 This is as far as you're going

01:00:06.080 as an artist.

01:00:06.700 And it kind of cut off

01:00:07.680 right there.

01:00:10.180 But,

01:00:10.740 I progressed up to about

01:00:12.580 the level of sixth grade

01:00:13.480 as an artist.

01:00:14.960 And I still would,

01:00:16.420 I'm better than this.

01:00:17.420 I don't even know what that,

01:00:18.220 I could easily do that.

01:00:21.120 And,

01:00:21.400 in high,

01:00:23.780 if a high schooler drew that,

01:00:25.160 you would,

01:00:25.640 you would take their sketch pad

01:00:27.860 away from them

01:00:29.040 and you would say,

01:00:29.760 okay,

01:00:29.900 you got to stop doodling now.

01:00:30.960 This is not for you.

01:00:32.280 You don't have any,

01:00:32.820 this is,

01:00:33.400 this is not your,

01:00:34.360 you need to go,

01:00:35.160 pick up a math book,

01:00:36.120 kid.

01:00:36.420 This is not,

01:00:39.360 this is,

01:00:39.800 this is,

01:00:40.200 you have no potential

01:00:41.240 in this,

01:00:41.680 in this world.

01:00:42.600 So it's just bad

01:00:43.460 from a technical

01:00:44.060 and aesthetic perspective.

01:00:45.840 And,

01:00:46.220 but this of course

01:00:46.920 is the dominant feature

01:00:47.960 of most modern art

01:00:48.920 is that it's ugly.

01:00:49.620 And ugliness

01:00:51.520 is kind of the point,

01:00:52.500 which is why

01:00:53.460 it's not art at all.

01:00:55.440 Art that is ugly

01:00:56.520 on purpose

01:00:57.180 or,

01:00:58.340 or even by accident

01:00:59.460 is not art.

01:01:02.740 You know,

01:01:03.460 art is not,

01:01:04.820 despite what you are told,

01:01:06.080 what we're all told,

01:01:06.880 art is not entirely subjective.

01:01:10.380 It,

01:01:10.820 it is a subjective expression

01:01:12.160 by the artist

01:01:13.400 because they are conveying,

01:01:15.340 communicating something to us.

01:01:16.400 So subjective in that case,

01:01:17.900 in that sense,

01:01:18.480 but there is an objective

01:01:20.080 quality to it

01:01:20.700 because art by definition

01:01:21.880 is supposed to be beautiful.

01:01:23.220 Emerson said that art

01:01:24.160 is the creation of beauty,

01:01:25.820 which I think,

01:01:27.320 if you had to come up

01:01:28.600 with a definition of art,

01:01:29.460 I think that's a pretty good one.

01:01:30.920 That's the best definition 0.66

01:01:31.900 anyone's ever offered,

01:01:32.860 I think.

01:01:33.220 Art is the creation of beauty.

01:01:34.920 Art conveys beauty.

01:01:36.260 It creates

01:01:37.380 and conveys beauty.

01:01:39.480 And an artist

01:01:40.220 is someone

01:01:40.660 who can create beauty.

01:01:43.300 To experience art

01:01:44.760 is to experience beauty.

01:01:46.880 Now,

01:01:47.080 that doesn't mean

01:01:47.600 that art

01:01:48.020 can't be sad

01:01:49.540 or tragic

01:01:50.140 or difficult

01:01:51.260 or anything like that.

01:01:52.900 Art doesn't always

01:01:53.600 have to be sunshine

01:01:54.320 and happiness,

01:01:55.780 okay,

01:01:56.140 but it does have to be beautiful

01:01:57.640 or it's not art.

01:01:58.940 And that's what an artist is.

01:02:00.220 An artist is someone

01:02:00.860 who can

01:02:02.120 find and see

01:02:04.900 and create beauty

01:02:06.480 in a way

01:02:07.160 that other people can't.

01:02:09.040 And if they can

01:02:09.660 create beauty

01:02:10.520 out of something

01:02:11.040 that is sad

01:02:11.960 or tragic

01:02:12.440 or difficult,

01:02:13.180 then that's all the more

01:02:13.980 reason why

01:02:15.360 they are an artist.

01:02:16.220 That's the talent

01:02:17.020 of being an artist.

01:02:19.300 So,

01:02:19.800 this is anti-art

01:02:20.700 because it's ugly.

01:02:21.760 But the other thing

01:02:22.700 you notice

01:02:23.100 is that it's intensely

01:02:25.520 like exclusively

01:02:28.020 self-referential.

01:02:31.500 Every portrait

01:02:32.420 is of her own face.

01:02:35.960 It's so on the nose

01:02:36.660 that when I saw this,

01:02:37.520 I was like,

01:02:37.700 I had to go check

01:02:38.340 her Instagram myself

01:02:39.700 because it's so on the nose.

01:02:42.440 And no,

01:02:43.120 this is,

01:02:43.380 yeah,

01:02:43.520 this is it.

01:02:44.600 She even depicts herself

01:02:46.060 in the George Floyd pose

01:02:48.240 doing the Floyd,

01:02:50.040 as the kids would say,

01:02:51.060 with the knee on the neck.

01:02:52.640 And she even puts herself,

01:02:54.560 she puts herself in everything.

01:02:55.740 She cannot see

01:02:56.720 outside of herself.

01:02:58.120 The only thing she sees

01:02:59.720 in the world

01:03:00.280 is herself.

01:03:01.020 And this is the other feature

01:03:01.940 of modern art

01:03:02.680 is that

01:03:04.300 it is,

01:03:06.260 it is ugly 0.98

01:03:08.080 and also narcissistic. 1.00

01:03:10.560 It is ugly 0.96

01:03:11.100 and self-focused.

01:03:13.300 And why is that?

01:03:14.320 Well,

01:03:14.420 because these are narcissists.

01:03:15.820 These are people

01:03:16.320 who hate themselves

01:03:17.260 and yet are obsessed

01:03:19.660 with themselves.

01:03:21.940 And anybody

01:03:22.880 who's obsessed

01:03:23.320 with themselves

01:03:23.800 will also hate themselves.

01:03:27.240 They are obsessed

01:03:28.180 with how much

01:03:28.680 they hate themselves,

01:03:29.360 obsessed with the

01:03:30.040 negative feelings

01:03:31.260 that they have

01:03:31.820 about themselves.

01:03:32.940 And that becomes

01:03:33.820 the subject

01:03:34.380 of every piece of art

01:03:35.700 or anti-art,

01:03:37.600 quasi-art

01:03:38.320 that they create.

01:03:39.700 And it's not that

01:03:40.380 there isn't anything

01:03:40.920 interesting or legitimate

01:03:41.900 that you can do

01:03:42.680 with art to,

01:03:43.780 you know,

01:03:44.020 it's like,

01:03:44.360 it's not that you can't

01:03:45.740 create art about yourself

01:03:47.300 or art that it has

01:03:50.140 self-introspection,

01:03:51.580 that the self

01:03:52.460 is certainly

01:03:52.900 a valid subject for art.

01:03:54.480 But if all you can see

01:03:56.300 is yourself

01:03:57.880 and for the leftist,

01:04:00.540 that's all they can see.

01:04:01.600 That's all that exists.

01:04:03.080 That really is all that exists

01:04:04.340 is the self.

01:04:05.700 And if that's the case,

01:04:08.500 then there's nothing

01:04:08.920 interesting you can say

01:04:09.960 about the self

01:04:10.720 because the self

01:04:12.320 is a worthy subject

01:04:13.320 of art

01:04:13.700 if you're looking

01:04:14.380 at yourself

01:04:15.380 in the context

01:04:16.380 of this amazing world,

01:04:19.080 this vast cosmos,

01:04:20.700 this, you know,

01:04:21.500 the self in relation

01:04:22.740 to the world,

01:04:23.980 the self in relation

01:04:24.840 to God,

01:04:26.380 the self in relation

01:04:27.420 to others,

01:04:28.960 in relation to

01:04:29.820 those you love,

01:04:31.380 and so on and so on.

01:04:32.220 And there's a lot

01:04:33.520 to be said artistically

01:04:34.480 there.

01:04:35.800 The possibilities

01:04:36.400 are infinite.

01:04:38.020 But these modern artists,

01:04:39.720 these fake artists,

01:04:41.720 they are only thinking

01:04:45.300 about the self

01:04:46.040 for its own sake,

01:04:47.140 the self as the only thing

01:04:49.420 that exists in the world.

01:04:50.620 And when you do that,

01:04:55.460 you end up with something

01:04:56.220 that is just empty

01:04:57.700 and ugly 0.96

01:04:58.380 and superficial 0.54

01:05:00.300 and not art.

01:05:03.880 But I suppose

01:05:04.580 I'm being naive

01:05:05.200 because, you know,

01:05:05.920 when these political figures,

01:05:08.840 the Hunter Bidens

01:05:09.560 of the world,

01:05:10.340 the,

01:05:10.840 what is it,

01:05:11.300 what's the,

01:05:11.760 Kamala Harris's

01:05:12.580 stepdaughter,

01:05:14.120 L. M. Hoff

01:05:14.920 or whatever,

01:05:15.280 also pretends

01:05:15.920 to be an artist.

01:05:16.860 Usually,

01:05:17.540 there's another reason

01:05:18.880 why these kinds

01:05:19.940 of people get into art

01:05:20.860 and it's not

01:05:22.080 because they want

01:05:22.660 to express something

01:05:23.640 about themselves

01:05:24.560 or the world.

01:05:25.960 You know,

01:05:26.500 it's so that you can,

01:05:27.280 like,

01:05:27.560 do a little doodle

01:05:28.340 and sell it

01:05:30.120 at an auction

01:05:30.720 and look at that,

01:05:31.580 someone paid you

01:05:32.100 $500,000

01:05:32.820 for that little doodle.

01:05:34.620 That's strange.

01:05:35.460 Let's not look into that.

01:05:38.360 No.

01:05:39.180 Giant money laundering

01:05:40.080 scheme, basically.

01:05:40.920 I don't know that

01:05:41.360 to be the case,

01:05:41.940 but that's usually,

01:05:42.720 that's very often

01:05:43.480 why these people

01:05:45.060 get into art

01:05:45.540 in the first place.

01:05:46.100 So, I don't know

01:05:46.600 if that's the case here.

01:05:47.660 In any case,

01:05:48.840 that will do it

01:05:50.200 for the show.

01:05:50.640 We went kind of long

01:05:51.140 with all that,

01:05:51.780 so it won't be

01:05:52.260 a daily cancellation day,

01:05:53.660 but we'll be back tomorrow.

01:05:55.700 Have a great day.

01:05:57.100 Talk tomorrow.

01:05:57.940 Godspeed.

01:06:04.640 Today on the Ben Shapiro Show,

01:06:06.180 the BBC leadership

01:06:07.040 is in turmoil

01:06:07.760 after slandering Donald Trump.

01:06:09.340 When we examine

01:06:09.840 their long history 0.99

01:06:10.720 of pathetic bias, 0.99

01:06:11.760 the government shutdown 0.97

01:06:12.400 is ending

01:06:12.800 and Democrats are furious

01:06:14.320 and Marjorie Taylor Greene

01:06:15.860 continues her anti-Trump crusade
