00:00:00.480 Recently, our company's softball team lost the big game by one run.
00:00:04.800 Then Dale tried to console us with the quote,
00:00:07.200 winning isn't everything.
00:00:09.060 Well, Dale and I are very different.
00:00:12.740 I get early payout from Bet365.
00:00:14.680 If my team goes up big, I get paid out instantly,
00:00:17.480 even if they blow the lead later.
00:00:19.540 Sound familiar, Dale?
00:00:21.280 Thanks, Bet365.
00:00:22.920 Must be 19 or older, Ontario only.
00:00:24.420 Please play responsibly.
00:00:25.240 If you have questions or concerns about your gambling
00:00:26.660 or the gambling of someone close to you,

00:00:30.000 For the vast majority of this country's history, intelligence was considered an asset in politics.
00:00:35.100 Most Americans preferred to vote for politicians with a high IQ, not because these politicians represented the common man, but precisely because they didn't.
00:00:44.960 They were extraordinary.
00:00:46.440 This has been true since the nation's founding and before.
00:00:49.080 Ben Franklin won a medal from the Royal Society for his research on electricity.
00:00:52.720 John Adams was a gifted attorney who managed to get several British soldiers acquitted of charges related to the Boston Massacre, which was no small feat since the trial took place in Boston.
00:01:01.980 Thomas Jefferson maintained a famous library, and you could translate passages in ancient Greek and Latin.
00:01:08.140 These men were all-time geniuses.
00:01:10.960 And these attributes were valuable in politics because everyone understood that when you elect competent leaders at whatever level of government, you get favorable results for everybody.
00:01:23.200 And that's all that people cared about at the time. Nobody elected George Washington because he was charming.
00:01:29.540 There's actually a story from the Constitutional Convention where a guy put his arm on Washington's back as a greeting and Washington removed the hand and just stared at the guy until he backed away slowly.
00:01:39.820 I personally find that story to be extremely relatable.
00:01:43.260 It was the level of charisma and warmth that you could expect from Washington, and nobody cared.
00:01:48.740 We elected Washington because he was a brilliant tactician who defeated the British, and he was a great leader. 0.93
00:01:53.660 But somewhere along the line, after a half century of importing tens of millions of foreigners into the country, our standards changed. 0.99
00:02:02.720 Intelligence is no longer the qualification that it used to be, quite the opposite. 1.00
00:02:06.500 Today, some of the dumbest and least impressive people in the country hold elected office. 0.96
00:02:12.440 One need only watch any random congressional hearing for five minutes to see that the general 0.99
00:02:17.000 IQ of our politicians has clearly plummeted to depths never before seen or explored. 0.99
00:02:24.080 Indeed, it seems that the dumber and less impressive you are, the more likely you are 0.98
00:02:27.860 to achieve political success, the more likely you are to become the Democrat Party's nominee 1.00
00:02:32.920 for president.
00:02:34.180 And that's not an accident. 1.00
00:02:36.220 Now, yes, it's easy for conservatives to mock dumb candidates. 0.99
00:02:40.120 We can laugh at the fact that Tim Walls said he was friends with school shooters or, you 0.99
00:02:44.580 know, the fact that Kamala Harris speaks like an AI chatbot minus the computing power or
00:02:49.680 the fact that Joe Biden performed so poorly on the debate stage that his wife thought
00:02:53.140 he was having a stroke. 0.99
00:02:54.580 But dumb candidates are capable of doing two things that smart candidates simply cannot, 0.99
00:03:01.380 at least with any degree of effectiveness. 1.00
00:03:03.240 First of all, dumb candidates are relatable and familiar to dumb voters, and there are, sadly, a lot of those. 0.99
00:03:13.180 And we're importing more every day. 0.99
00:03:15.200 When a Haitian arrives in Ohio, slack-jawed, prowling for cats to devour, he can find comfort in the ramblings of an alcoholic like Kamala Harris, 1.00
00:03:25.240 who talks about coconut trees and giving away a bunch of free stuff. 0.98
00:03:29.240 It's reassuring. It reminds him of home.
00:03:32.500 And therefore, when some NGO comes along to collect 50 ballots from that Haitian, 0.96
00:03:37.760 every single one of those ballots is guaranteed to be favorable to the Democrat Party. 0.99
00:03:42.720 And the other benefit of fielding dumb candidates, and this is the really big one, 0.98
00:03:47.460 is that they can easily wave their hand and disavow all of their previous statements 0.99
00:03:53.400 and their party's previous statements.
00:03:55.840 They can snap their fingers and make all the bad press go away. 0.98
00:03:58.620 After all, you can't hold dumb people accountable for things they've said in the past. They had no idea what they were doing back then or now. 0.95
00:04:06.880 You know, they can go on camera and say, oh, you know, I didn't really mean that. And millions of people will buy it.
00:04:11.880 If you want to reset a disastrous era for your political party or at least give the impression of doing so, a dumb candidate can get the job done. 0.96
00:04:21.600 Now, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may not understand much, but she definitely grasps this concept. 0.77
00:04:29.140 She is now, with virtual certainty, going to be on the Democratic Party's ticket in
00:04:34.880 2028, either as the presidential or vice presidential nominee.
00:04:39.160 She is the party's ideal candidate because she can simultaneously disavow what the communists 1.00
00:04:44.060 are planning while also giving them everything they want. 0.67
00:04:47.120 unlike Gavin Newsom, AOC doesn't come across as overly calculating and manipulative because she 1.00
00:04:55.080 seems like a moron, because that's exactly what she is. And for Democrats, that's their secret 0.99
00:05:00.140 weapon. On one of the Sunday shows this weekend at ABC News, AOC put this strategy into action.
00:05:07.280 So watch her response to Jonathan Karl, who asks her about the pesky fact that just a few years ago,
00:05:13.120 Democrats, including AOC, were calling for the elimination of local law enforcement in the
00:05:18.880 country. So here's her explanation after he asks about Francesca Hong, the communist in Wisconsin
00:05:24.560 who wants to abolish the U.S. government. And here's how she handles that. Watch. 0.87
00:05:29.780 What do you make of those controversial statements I'm sure you've seen? I mean, she's, 0.64
00:05:33.720 you know, the Thanksgiving dust up. She says she doesn't, you know, still believe that. But,
00:05:38.560 you know, abolish prisons, abolish police, which is also positions that have been taken by a lot
00:05:44.960 of the progressive candidates who have won. How do you get around that? Those are not positions
00:05:50.720 that are supported by... Right. I mean, I think that a lot of these races, even right now,
00:05:57.480 they'll have a tendency to be nationalized. But these races ultimately are local and all
00:06:04.880 politics are local. My understanding is that Francesca Hong has made clear her present stances
00:06:12.840 to her electorate. Yeah, she's moved away from a lot of that. Right, she's moved away from it.
00:06:16.760 And I have a local city councilman that has this saying, woke one was crazy. 0.76
00:06:25.300 Woke one was crazy. Okay, that's true. And I think that what's important is that we have to assess
00:06:31.500 What was it? I mean, did the movement go too far with some of those positions?
00:06:34.940 I mean, you you briefly supported the idea of defunding the police.
00:06:38.680 Well, you know, I think I think that during this time and during especially during COVID, there was a huge opening of the Overton window.
00:06:48.440 We were shut down. There was some of the highest unemployment rates that we have seen because of those shutdowns.
00:06:53.340 And I think that the doors were really open in trying to entertain any and every policy that was going to get us to a better place.
00:07:04.620 Woke One was crazy, she says with a smile.
00:07:07.400 And Jonathan Karl laughs along with her because the whole point of this interview is to create as much distance as possible between AOC and everything she's been saying up until this point.
00:07:17.320 They're acting like Woke One is a relic from a time when they were still building pyramids in Egypt.
00:07:23.340 woke one is ancient history it was five years ago but it may as well be 4 000 years ago this is what
00:07:31.140 we're meant to believe now of course they also want us to believe that slavery was so recent
00:07:35.760 that it may as well have happened last week meanwhile jim crow effectively happened this
00:07:41.000 morning so things from decades and centuries ago are somehow fresher and more current than things
00:07:46.740 from the year 2021 it's like we've entered some kind of time warp where the sequence of events
00:07:52.720 has been jumbled and mixed up. We're unstuck in time, like we're living in a Kurt Vonnegut novel
00:07:57.560 or something. But there's something else we need to notice about the clip that we just played. AOC
00:08:01.340 goes out of her way to blame the COVID lockdowns for all of her party's bad ideas. She states that
00:08:06.980 people were desperate because they were unemployed. And for that reason, they were willing to entertain
00:08:11.220 every policy that might get them to a better place. You see, this makes perfect sense because
00:08:16.760 when people are unemployed and desperate, the very first thing on their minds is defunding
00:08:22.100 the police, that's priority number one. It's a tale as old as time. A person falls on hard times,
00:08:28.740 starts to struggle, turns to the bottle, and soon decides that the concept of law enforcement
00:08:34.540 shouldn't exist. We've all been there. Oh, and when you get the pink slip at your job, you're
00:08:39.700 also going to become hell-bent on allowing men to compete in women's sports and castrating children 0.99
00:08:44.840 and burning down random buildings on behalf of career black felons. You become totally psychotic, 1.00
00:08:50.120 not responsible for your actions. And by extension, neither are Democrats like AOC. 0.90
00:08:55.960 That's the message she's trying to send, at least superficially. But in reality,
00:09:00.960 she's saying something a little different. She doesn't actually believe that Woke One,
00:09:04.180 so-called, was a good faith effort to fix anyone's problem. What she's really saying,
00:09:08.920 or rather confessing, is that when you isolate Americans in their homes using the force of law,
00:09:14.100 they become much easier to manipulate and control. The lockdowns were a godsend for 0.94
00:09:19.340 these communists and not simply because they upended the global economy and led to mass
00:09:23.780 unemployment and disconnect content. The real benefit of lockdowns from the perspective of
00:09:28.220 politicians like AOC is that they demonstrated a proof of concept. They prove that when the
00:09:33.720 government demands total obedience in the face of a new vaguely defined threat based on inadequate
00:09:38.680 evidence, tens of millions of Americans will shut up and obey. They won't simply listen to Tony
00:09:45.100 Fauci and his social distancing rules or whatever, wear the mask and all the rest of it. They'll
00:09:49.420 listen to whatever you tell them about any topic. They'll become totally submissive.
00:09:55.980 For the communists, that was the main takeaway from the lockdowns. That's why AOC mentioned
00:10:00.780 the lockdowns in her answer. They can't wait to shut down the economy all over again so they can 1.00
00:10:05.860 push the country more directly towards communism. And make no mistake about it, woke one was,
00:10:12.760 you know, trans hysteria, race riots. Woke 2, which of course is implied by the existence of 0.59
00:10:18.880 Woke 1, is full-on communism. See, the left is getting more extreme, not less. Now they're just
00:10:26.560 being slightly more strategic about it. So the second time around, they won't waste any time
00:10:32.000 with race hustlers like Robin DiAngelo or Henry Rogers, aka Ibram X. Kendi. They won't try to
00:10:37.420 launder their communism through respectable-seeming academics or fake narratives of police brutality.
00:10:42.760 they won't have to. Instead, as explicitly as possible, they will pursue Marxism from the
00:10:48.940 moment they regain power. Race riots will still be a factor. Actually, they might even try to
00:10:54.420 bring back the trans hysteria. Who knows? It's hard to say. But what we can say for sure is that 0.82
00:10:59.360 the second phase of wokeness, which we've already entered as evidenced by the rise of the DSA and 0.97
00:11:04.920 the election of communist foreigners like Mamdani, will be far worse in every way than the first 0.87
00:11:12.400 phase. Speaking of the DSA, take a look at this moment from AOC's interview when she's asked about
00:11:18.380 the platform of the Democratic Socialists of America. It's clearly a deranged set of policy
00:11:26.320 proposals, one that's incompatible with the continued existence of the United States.
00:11:31.740 They want to eliminate privately owned corporations. They want to abolish the police,
00:11:36.360 get rid of the court system, the presidency, award citizenship to every illegal alien in the 0.55
00:11:41.480 country, and so on. In response, AOC's first reaction is not to disavow anything on the
00:11:47.400 platform. Instead, she starts rambling about Donald Trump. Watch. I was looking through the
00:11:53.360 DSA program, and this is the national program. I'm sure you've seen the document. It was adopted
00:11:58.240 just a few months ago. But some of the positions here, defund the Department of Defense,
00:12:04.200 close overseas military bases, abolish the police and prison system, 0.78
00:12:08.940 Grant amnesty to all immigrants in the U.S. 0.99
00:12:12.560 Replace the Supreme Court and executive judiciary chosen by lower and lower to Congress. 1.00
00:12:19.500 Abolish the Senate.
00:12:20.800 Public ownership of corporations and essential industries.
00:12:23.960 I mean, those are some positions that you're going to be hearing a lot about this fall from Republicans.
00:12:29.800 And I think we're also going to be hearing a lot about Donald Trump's commitment to getting us into a reckless war in Iran.
00:12:34.560 his collaboration with big companies to make sure that everything from groceries to rent stay sky high.
00:12:43.140 And I think that people are less interested in these academic debates
00:12:47.400 and they're more interested in how we're going to bring their bills down. 0.97
00:12:50.740 Well, she doesn't want to get bogged down in academic debates like whether we should have a country or not.
00:12:57.660 That's secondary to bringing the bills down and making sure people can afford to see a doctor, she says.
00:13:04.560 But wait a minute, you might ask, how exactly will abolishing the Senate and the presidency and the Supreme Court help people afford to see a doctor? 0.96
00:13:11.900 How exactly will life become affordable when we abolish our borders and start paying welfare to another 100 million foreigners? 0.97
00:13:21.340 How is this going to work exactly? 0.99
00:13:23.860 When we become a third world country, how is any of this stuff going to become more affordable?
00:13:29.260 How is it working in actual third world countries today?
00:13:31.860 How's their health care system going?
00:13:33.820 Hey, how is the health care system in Somalia?
00:13:38.240 And what system of government is going to replace the one we have now?
00:13:42.960 Well, Jonathan Karl, in a roundabout way, did attempt to address that question.
00:13:46.640 It was one of the only moments in the interview where he pushed back a little bit.
00:13:50.300 He wanted to know, in AOC's own words, how she understood the distinction between socialism and communism.
00:13:56.560 And here was AOC's response.
00:13:58.860 By the way, just a quick definitional thing.
00:14:01.440 What, in your mind, is the difference between socialism and communism?
00:14:05.040 I think, to me, the fundamental difference is, I mean, there's many.
00:14:10.400 One prevailing one is democracy.
00:14:13.660 And I believe that democratic socialists are fundamentally pro-democracy.
00:14:20.760 And we believe in the ballot box.
00:14:23.240 We believe in respecting the outcomes of elections and governing democratically
00:14:30.000 and ensuring that the ideas and policies that are implemented are won through popular vote and popular opinion.
00:14:38.420 And so I think that's why so much of what we focus on is also making sure that we are providing for the majority of Americans,
00:14:47.680 guaranteeing health care, raising wages, strengthening the right to a union.
00:14:52.120 And I think that that's at its core what we're about.
00:14:57.320 Are you still a member of Democratic Socialists of America?
00:15:00.680 Of the New York City chapter.
00:15:01.800 The New York City chapter, not the national.
00:15:04.460 Now, there's a lot to consider here, starting with the implication that communists are never elected democratically.
00:15:10.160 That's simply not true.
00:15:11.060 There have been plenty of communists who have won in democratic elections from Nicaragua to India to Czechoslovakia.
00:15:16.800 There are many, many communist regimes that have claimed to be democratic, claimed at least. 0.54
00:15:21.540 So if your distinction between socialism and communism is that democratic socialists come to power because of democratic elections, you need to go back to the drawing board because you have no idea what you're talking about, par for the course with AOC.
00:15:34.040 Of course, the bigger problem with her response is that the DSA's entire platform is designed to destroy every aspect of American democracy.
00:15:40.840 And I'm not even talking about the fact that they want to abolish every branch of government.
00:15:44.780 The thing is, when you open the borders and grant legal status to everybody who walks into the country, American democracy obviously becomes impossible. 0.98
00:15:54.360 Americans cannot govern themselves when they're outvoted by foreigners. 0.92
00:15:59.180 That's what's happened in California, a state that will never again elect another Republican. 0.75
00:16:04.700 It's also happening in New York, where a quarter of the population can't speak English.
00:16:08.620 This is why Democrats support amnesty in the first place.
00:16:11.260 It's a convenient way to rig elections.
00:16:12.760 They'll tell you they favor democracy, but their plan is to dilute your vote until it's irrelevant. 1.00
00:16:19.600 Now, if they can't ban you from voting, then at least they can just dump, they can bring in truckloads of foreigners and low IQ people and drown you out. 1.00
00:16:30.560 That's the strategy. 1.00
00:16:32.840 The Obama and Biden administrations accelerated this plan and the next Democrat administration, should one take power, will go even further.
00:16:40.860 And you can expect no resistance whatsoever from establishment Democrats during this takeover.
00:16:47.540 As DSA candidates have won elections all over the country, prominent Democrats have openly admitted
00:16:51.600 they don't care about their platform or how they'll destroy the U.S.
00:16:55.880 They only care about putting more Democrats in office regardless of what they believe.
00:16:59.680 Here's Adam Schiff of California when he was asked about the rise of the communist Abdul
00:17:04.500 Al-Sayed in Michigan, who believes that private health care should be abolished,
00:17:08.820 also believes that football is quote-unquote toxically masculine
00:17:13.000 uh and other more outrageous opinions than that although that one's pretty bad watch
00:17:18.640 have you endorsed elsa yet um i'm supporting him now and uh just spoke with him i stayed out of
00:17:27.020 the primary but uh i'm supporting him and just spoke with him for the first time earlier this
00:17:34.880 week and that is the seat we must win. Now we've seen similar responses from every Democrat except
00:17:41.660 John Fetterman, I guess. They're all lining up to support communists solely because they want to
00:17:45.760 cling to power as long as possible. They'll happily watch the entire country burn to the ground as
00:17:49.980 long as it advances their political careers for the time being. With Russiagate, Adam Schiff
00:17:55.540 pretended to hide behind the narrative that he was rooting out Russian corruption in our elections
00:17:59.860 or whatever. And when 20 different prosecutors were trying to throw Trump in prison during the
00:18:04.460 2024 election. They pretended that they were concerned about the rule of law and democracy
00:18:08.380 and all that. And now he's simply dropping the farce entirely. They all are. They're abandoning
00:18:14.380 the phony principled messaging and they're just flat out embracing third world communism 1.00
00:18:19.640 and other forms of stupidity. Christians often teach about helping one another and they should, 1.00
00:18:27.020 but eventually that has to mean something practical. You probably experienced getting 0.95
00:18:30.860 hit with a medical bill that was much higher than you anticipated and didn't know where to turn.
00:18:35.500 That's where Christian Healthcare Ministries comes in. CHM isn't health insurance. It's a
00:18:39.920 health cost-sharing ministry where Christians voluntarily come together to share one another's
00:18:45.160 eligible medical bills. The idea is remarkably simple. Actually, you can help carry someone
00:18:50.560 else's burden, and when your family needs help, well, the other members do the same for you.
00:18:54.280 That's Christian community in a very practical form, and CHM has been doing it since 1981. In
00:19:00.380 45 years, they've satisfied 100% of every eligible medical bill they have received. Programs start as
00:19:06.760 low as $115 per person per month with added protection for catastrophic medical events.
00:19:12.180 So if you're looking at what you're currently spending on healthcare and wondering whether
00:19:15.800 there's another option, take a look at CHM. It's affordable, it's biblical, and it's been working
00:19:21.320 for Christians for 45 years. Get started today by visiting chministries.org slash Walsh. That's
00:19:27.460 chministries.org slash Walsh. Your body actually makes most of its own cholesterol, which is worth 0.69
00:19:34.940 knowing because cholesterol advice usually sounds something like this. Don't eat eggs. Don't eat
00:19:39.900 butter. Don't eat anything you enjoy. Problem solved. So it's obviously more complicated than
00:19:45.420 that. And that's why people are looking for practical ways to support their cholesterol
00:19:48.580 health alongside things they're already doing. Eating better, exercising, monitoring your health.
00:19:54.400 That's where Dose for Cholesterol comes in.
00:19:56.580 Dose for Cholesterol is a clinically backed daily supplement designed to support triglycerides, LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol levels.
00:20:05.800 And unlike most supplements, you're not adding another handful of capsules to your day.
00:20:09.480 Dose is just a two-ounce liquid shot that tastes like mango.
00:20:13.580 You just take the shot and you're done.
00:20:15.380 No powder to mix, no capsules to swallow, no terrible supplement aftertaste.
00:20:19.720 It also gets delivered right to your door so it's easy to stay consistent.
00:20:22.980 That's really the point.
00:20:23.720 A health routine only works if you actually stick with it.
00:20:27.420 If you're looking for a practical way to support your cholesterol health,

00:20:50.020 Now, if there's cause for some optimism here,
00:20:52.120 it's the fact that with AOC in particular, they've clearly overcompensated. They're
00:20:57.320 elevating a politician so dumb that she hardly qualifies as a useful idiot. She's simply an 1.00
00:21:05.000 idiot. Now, we shouldn't underestimate the possibility that she'll win the next presidential 1.00
00:21:08.960 election. This is, after all, a very different country than it was 40 years ago. If AOC had run
00:21:14.320 for president in, say, 1992, she would have been laughed off the stage and then out of the country
00:21:21.160 and off of the planet. I mean, the American public would have gawked and stared in gaping 0.94
00:21:26.380 astonishment that a woman so ditzy and ridiculous, not to mention so clearly resentful of the country 1.00
00:21:31.720 she wants to lead, would even consider running for any office, let alone the presidency. 0.98
00:21:37.200 But this is not 1992 or even 2002. This is a different country, and frankly, by every imaginable
00:21:42.700 metric, a worse one. So AOC could absolutely win the presidency. And we shouldn't be so naive and 0.98
00:21:50.840 optimistic in our thinking to assume otherwise. All that said, we do have to take stock of the
00:21:56.120 fact that the headwinds for AOC are real. These are mental headwinds I'm talking about.
00:22:05.360 I mean, her head is wind. That's all she has inside her head. But this is a woman who can 1.00
00:22:09.160 barely form a coherent thought. On a debate stage with, say, J.D. Vance or Marco Rubio, 0.99
00:22:13.420 she would turn in a performance that would make Biden look almost sentient by comparison.
00:22:20.840 So you know where this is going.
00:22:21.880 It's time for a quick recap of some of AOC's greatest hits,
00:22:25.240 particularly from the Woke One era,
00:22:27.080 which lasted from about 2015 to five seconds ago.
00:22:32.160 We'll begin with a lesser known gem,
00:22:33.660 which is the fact that AOC sincerely believes
00:22:35.900 that the term opening salvo
00:22:37.740 is really pronounced opening silo.
00:22:40.600 So instead of firing an opening salvo at the enemy,
00:22:43.240 you're opening a silo at them.
00:22:46.020 Makes perfect sense if you're illiterate,
00:22:47.660 which is why AOC doesn't miss a beat.
00:22:49.940 watch. Georgia is the crucible. Tennessee, Louisiana, Mississippi is the crucible.
00:22:55.960 So if you are not from here, it is time to pull up.
00:23:01.080 Because what they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening silo.
00:23:07.840 What they thought was the final blow was actually just the opening silo. They never saw it coming.
00:23:14.120 They were expecting a salvo, probably because they passed the first grade and they got a silo
00:23:19.420 instead. She really showed them. But no one was more impressed with AOC's intellect than the
00:23:25.560 audience of this CNN town hall debate, which learned the horrible truth about the people
00:23:29.740 responsible for setting the rivers on fire and destroying the environment. Turns out that the
00:23:35.340 villain of the story is not DuPont, as many on the left have alleged. Watch. Rivers in rural areas
00:23:42.920 were on fire because of corporations poisoning the people who lived in those areas, poor middle
00:23:50.620 class communities, getting poisoned and dumped on by corporations like Deloitte and 3M pouring
00:23:57.600 chemicals into these places. And they want to call it a democratic priority. Yes, you heard that
00:24:03.220 correctly. The real enemy is Deloitte, which, by the way, is an accounting and consulting firm.
00:24:09.260 So you thought that they were just sitting in their offices all day,
00:24:12.100 dressed business casual, writing emails in their khakis
00:24:14.960 and filling out Excel spreadsheets from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
00:24:18.500 But you were wrong.
00:24:19.200 In their spare time, Deloitte consultants were dumping chemicals in the water.
00:24:22.460 They were torching every river and farmland they came across. 1.00
00:24:26.120 They're like Mongol hordes rampaging around the United States. 1.00
00:24:30.100 If we want to stop global warming,
00:24:31.780 our best hope is for everyone to hire an accountant from Deloitte to do our taxes.
00:24:35.580 That's the only way to keep them busy.
00:24:36.720 otherwise they'd run rampant but if the audience at the cnn town hall was impressed they they've
00:24:42.620 got nothing on the unsuspecting foreign dignitaries at the munich security conference a few months
00:24:47.240 back this was aoc's big prepared debut on the international stage for a moment to prove that
00:24:53.140 she's qualified to serve as president or vice president and here's how it went would and should
00:24:59.820 the U.S. actually commit U.S. troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move?
00:25:06.420 You know, I think that this is such a, you know, I think that this is a
00:25:16.960 this is, of course, a very longstanding policy of the United States.
00:25:27.320 And I think what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never get to that point.
00:25:33.620 And we want to make sure that we are moving in all of our economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation and for that question to even arise.
00:25:45.960 You know, the best part of that clip is that right after AOC says, and this, I think, is the most profound quote from her.
00:25:51.560 she says, um, you know, I think that, uh, uh, this is such a, you know, I think, I think this
00:25:56.900 is, um, this is of course a very longstanding, um, policy, but right at that moment when she
00:26:03.480 hears the word policy, the woman who asked the question nods her head up and down. She has no
00:26:08.740 idea what AOC is saying because she isn't saying anything at all, but she's so happy to hear
00:26:11.860 something approaching an English word that she can barely contain her excitement. She was just
00:26:16.480 holding on, you know, for dear life, like waiting for AOC to say some kind of word. And then AOC
00:26:21.200 gets to it, and the woman's like, yes, a word. And indeed, no one can argue with AOC's response.
00:26:26.880 There is a longstanding policy not to answer that particular question. Any questions? Again,
00:26:32.480 this is a moment that she prepped for. She spent months, yes, months, plural, studying foreign
00:26:37.520 affairs with various experts in the field, gave her a crash course on how to handle questions
00:26:42.300 like this, and that answer was the best she could do. We need to do something with our economic 0.80
00:26:46.920 research and global position to prevent China from ever-threatening Taiwan. That's all she 0.92
00:26:50.840 could say. What this means is that she's simply too stupid to even dodge a difficult question, 1.00
00:26:55.300 which is an extremely low bar, and she can't clear it. She could have just said, well, we 1.00
00:26:59.700 shouldn't commit U.S. troops to any foreign conflict before it's even started. Or she could
00:27:03.100 have said, we'll commit U.S. troops to Taiwan or anywhere else, only if it's clearly in the best
00:27:06.900 interest of American citizens. Could have said that. Instead, she just stutters like a buffoon, 0.99
00:27:10.900 trying desperately to remember what her handlers told her to say, and she couldn't remember. 0.57
00:27:15.440 But in fairness, I might be judging AOC too harshly here, because if you ask the ladies of 1.00
00:27:19.420 the view AOC's answer couldn't have gone better watch she made it clear uh while she was in
00:27:27.280 Munich that she was there to point out the rise of authoritarianism did I say that correctly yes
00:27:33.440 authoritarianism authoritarianism so as you see
00:27:37.100 like sunny cannot pronounce authoritarian so she was she was there to to you know highlight sort
00:27:47.260 of that and the rise of fascism. This is the demographic that Democrats are courting for the
00:27:53.540 next election. People who can't laugh at AOC because they're just as dumb as she is. For her 1.00
00:27:58.760 part, AOC posted the following response to her critics who took issue with the fact that she
00:28:02.400 embarrassed herself and the entire country on the international stage. And here's what she had to
00:28:07.220 say. Do you think that I don't understand foreign policy because out of hours of discourse about
00:28:14.240 international affairs, I pause to think about one of the most sensitive geopolitical issues
00:28:20.760 that currently exist on Earth. I'm afraid the issue is not my understanding,
00:28:26.920 but rather the problem is perhaps you've gotten adjusted to a president that never thinks before
00:28:34.560 he speaks. Now, what's funny about this response is that when Trump won the election in 2016,
00:28:39.380 he took a phone call with Taiwan's president and instantaneously every media outlet in the
00:28:44.180 country, from the New York Times to Teen Vogue, lost their minds. Overnight, everyone became an
00:28:48.780 expert on Taiwan policy and a diplomatic precedent. They all told us that Trump was
00:28:54.800 risking World War III, that he was reckless and irresponsible, but he wasn't qualified for the
00:29:00.760 job and so on. And in the end, nothing happened. It was just a phone call. Nobody cared. As it
00:29:07.280 turns out, it's possible for politicians, even the president-elect of the United States, to
00:29:11.420 contradict the foreign policy establishment when it comes to Taiwan or any other issue.
00:29:16.120 You can say and do whatever you think is appropriate under the circumstances.
00:29:21.260 But AOC is only capable of repeating lines she's rehearsed, which is why she melted down under
00:29:26.000 pressure. It's hard to keep your pre-approved talking point straight when you're on a stage
00:29:31.240 for any length of time. That's why AOC excels at producing shorter videos in the comfort of
00:29:35.940 her own apartment. These are usually much more thoughtful takes on important issues like her
00:29:43.240 assessment of gas stoves. You see AOC wants to ban gas stoves, but she also uses one.
00:29:49.640 And you can see right there the evidence in various videos she uploads. And you might think
00:29:56.380 that's a contradiction, but you'd be wrong. Here's why. Watch. I do think it's funny that
00:30:01.820 like absolute utter republican meltdown where they're like you can take my gas stove or my cold
00:30:07.660 dead hands or how dare you talk about gas stoves you have a gas stove first of all first of all
00:30:15.420 i rent period second of all though it doesn't even matter because by that logic these are the same
00:30:23.380 people who would have said we should have never gotten rid of leaded gasoline just because someone
00:30:28.840 may have driven a gasoline car. Science evolves and gives us new knowledge with time.
00:30:35.340 You have to appreciate her complete lack of shame, if nothing else. As long as you don't
00:30:39.900 own a gas stove outright, then you're not part of the problem. If you're only leasing,
00:30:44.000 then you're good to go. You might think that this is just another run-of-the-mill example
00:30:49.240 of hypocrisy, but it's actually much more tragic than that. Here's a post from AOC's
00:30:54.240 X account dated January 2023. Quote, did you know that ongoing exposure to NO2 from gas stoves
00:31:02.180 is linked to reduced cognitive performance? Well, there it is. Credit where it's due.
00:31:10.280 You won't find a stronger argument for banning gas stoves. It might make you as dumb as AOC. 1.00
00:31:15.260 AOC has a gas stove and look what happened to her. Terrifying prospect for most Americans. 1.00
00:31:21.960 No steak or charred vegetable is worth that risk, I think.
00:31:26.860 Recently, our company's softball team lost the big game by one run.
00:31:31.160 Then Dale tried to console us with the quote,
00:31:33.620 winning isn't everything.

00:32:12.480 That's not even getting into
00:32:13.600 the effects of gas stoves
00:32:14.640 on climate change,
00:32:15.540 which as AOC
00:32:16.540 has previously announced,
00:32:18.120 we all remember, 1.00
00:32:19.260 will kill us
00:32:20.400 in 12 years now she made that prediction all the way back in 2019 so we only have five years left
00:32:27.740 watch millennials and people and you know gen z and all these folks that come after us
00:32:34.980 are looking up and we're like the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address
00:32:40.740 climate change. And your biggest issue is how are we going to pay for it?
00:32:51.340 Now, we can safely assume that this is one of those woke one moments that she's trying to laugh
00:32:55.940 off as an example of COVID hysteria, even though it's from a year before the COVID lockdowns
00:33:00.800 happened. And that's because for someone who thinks that the world is about to end, AOC has
00:33:05.600 been acting very much like someone who thinks we have a lot more time. I mean, for one thing,
00:33:11.740 as we established, she's clearly running for president or VP in the next election. AOC
00:33:16.000 apparently wants to be our last president ever since the world would end about three years into 0.79
00:33:22.100 her term, according to her predictions, which actually might turn out to be true, but it'll 0.99
00:33:27.520 have nothing to do with climate change. Now, for another thing, she just posted videos in which
00:33:32.520 She talks about freezing her eggs and demonstrates the process, which is a very strange thing to do if you think that we're all going to die in a short period of time.
00:33:43.380 It's also a rather gross thing to do on camera.
00:33:46.220 I mean, call me old fashioned.
00:33:47.460 Call me old fashioned.
00:33:48.920 But I really don't want to hear or think about any politician's eggs.
00:33:53.580 okay we can talk about the price of eggs at the grocery store but the eggs in your body should
00:34:00.080 not be a topic for public conversation much less a subject for show and tell and yet watch don't be
00:34:08.880 weird about this even though i know all of you will be all right everyone deco and i day one
00:34:16.740 of freezing my eggs. I'm diving into the process and now I've got
00:34:23.900 let's see all of this medicine here. I'm going to inject this first but I got a pro tip from a
00:34:35.020 friend because this injection kind of stings it kind of burns a little bit. So a friend of mine
00:34:43.120 told me that if you make the first injection first and let it sit while you're making while
00:34:51.200 you're doing everything else, maybe it burns a little less. I don't know. All right. Don't
00:35:06.940 be weird about this, even though I know all of you will be. Okay. That wasn't so bad.
00:35:30.400 Well, so much for climate change. Is AOC planning to have a child after the world ends? I mean, 0.53
00:35:36.640 is this her plan to repopulate the earth in the wake of the coming climate apocalypse?
00:35:41.140 Has that been the plan all along? AOC never wanted to stop climate change. I can see this
00:35:46.400 clearly now. Here's what happened. She was actually hoping that her fantastic idiocy would discredit
00:35:51.260 the environmentalist movement, which it did, by the way. She killed the environmentalist movement 1.00
00:35:55.820 almost single-handedly. It's amazing. Thereby ensuring that the climate apocalypse is not
00:36:01.660 avoided. And in the meantime, she's been freezing all of her eggs, waiting for the human species to 0.97
00:36:06.900 die off so that she can repopulate the planet with her progeny and rule over it as matriarch 1.00
00:36:13.020 and empress. That was her dastardly plot. She almost got away with it. Or perhaps she's just 1.00
00:36:21.100 a cliched feminist millennial doing what cliched feminist millennials do. On second thought, you 1.00
00:36:27.260 that's probably it, which makes this even dumber. She'll turn 37 in a couple of months. 1.00
00:36:33.880 Now, if she got pregnant now, it would technically be a geriatric pregnancy.
00:36:39.440 And you could always say, oh, it's none of your business. But I agree. She's the one who brought 1.00
00:36:43.920 it up, first of all. Okay. This is the other, speaking of being a cliched feminist millennial,
00:36:50.040 this is the other thing they love to do. Share way too much information with the world. 1.00
00:36:53.900 like announce things to the world that none of us asked, right? You could have just kept that
00:36:59.740 private, but you share it. And then the second anybody has an opinion about it, you say, well,
00:37:04.100 it's none of your business. Why do you care so much? I don't know. If it's none of my business,
00:37:07.220 why did you tell me? Like when you tell me something, I can't help but form an opinion
00:37:13.960 about it. I'm a human. I have a brain. This is what happens. You have your own perspective.
00:37:18.200 When you force information onto me, I'm going to have my own perspective on it.
00:37:23.420 If you don't want me to have a perspective on it, don't tell me. 1.00
00:37:29.080 So, you know, she's freezing her eggs and putting the apocalypse aside, 0.64
00:37:34.820 this desire to start having children late in life is completely baffling to me.
00:37:41.180 You know, it's one thing if you become a parent later in life because that's just how things worked out.
00:37:46.100 For some people, that's the path life takes them. It's, it's God's plan for them. And that can happen. I mean, there are some people that are just, that's just how it worked out. They didn't plan it. It just worked out that way that they have kids later in life. Maybe they don't get married to later in life, uh, whatever it might be. And that's one thing, but to deliberately choose to delay parenthood until your forties, to use egg freezing and other unnatural means to make it happen is an entirely different thing.
00:38:13.920 you know like the the normal the ideal trajectory is the one i mean like okay i'll have kids i will
00:38:21.660 have kids who are in their 20s by the time i turn 50 i there's a very good chance i'll be in my early
00:38:27.260 50s and i'll have grandkids i mean that could easily happen right um aoc apparently wants to
00:38:32.460 have a toddler at that age no like the toddler in your life when you're in your 50s should be your
00:38:39.620 grandkid ideally so it's totally backwards and ridiculous but i'm probably giving her too much 0.67
00:38:48.320 credit i mean the more you look into her social media egg freezing blitz uh the more it seems 0.69
00:38:54.360 like a stunt so take this video for example watch um my insurance does not cover one penny of this
00:39:03.120 it is 100% out of pocket it doesn't go to my deductible nothing it covers nothing so
00:39:11.780 there's two main sources of costs so you don't just like pay one lump sum to the doctor you
00:39:18.200 pay for the medicine and then you also pay your clinic and for the procedure so there's two costs
00:39:24.320 of it. Some places are very expensive. I'm going to a place in New York City that specifically
00:39:33.520 designs options for women who don't have insurance covering it. And so my grand total personally for
00:39:45.400 me all in is going to be probably between eight to nine thousand dollars. The other piece of this
00:39:51.700 is the actual clinic and procedure and your provider and a lot of clinics actually don't
00:39:59.940 require you to pay in a lump sum. I saved a long time for this and so I'm just paying for it
00:40:08.980 outright after years of saving. It's all carefully calculated to appeal to a specific
00:40:15.540 and growing demographic which is women who hit their 30s without any clear prospects of having
00:40:20.360 children. She wants to come across as a resource for these women, as someone who's going through
00:40:25.300 the same struggle they are. It makes her seem more authentic. But you got to wonder if she's
00:40:31.480 trying to be authentic, why she claims that she spent years saving up $8,000 for this procedure.
00:40:37.160 As a member of Congress, she makes $174,000 a year. And also, by the way, she also doesn't
00:40:44.340 have to pay. So many of her expenses are calm. She doesn't actually have to pay for most things
00:40:48.580 in her life. So her $174,000 a year is not like your $174,000 a year. So in six months, 0.64
00:40:57.340 realistically, she could have been able to save a minimum of like 15 grand or so. 0.79
00:41:01.180 The only reason she takes so long to save $8,000 with her income is if she didn't prioritize this 1.00
00:41:06.500 procedure or if she's horrible with money. And that's not even getting into the fact that by 1.00
00:41:11.500 freezing your eggs, you're not actually guaranteeing that you'll conceive a child one day if you choose
00:41:15.420 to do so. Not even close. The longer you wait, the less likely conception becomes.
00:41:22.120 Human biology is a thing. It does matter. You can't just completely subvert it.
00:41:29.140 What human biology tells you is that once you get into your 40s, like I said, 35 medically is a
00:41:38.560 geriatric pregnancy already. So human biology says that, no, you're not really supposed to
00:41:44.260 start having kids in your 40s. That's not how this is supposed to work. And people today think
00:41:50.180 that they could just, well, no, we could just magically pretend, we can just magically erase
00:41:54.540 that. We can magically make it so that biology doesn't count. That doesn't work that way.
00:42:01.960 And, you know, part of the process that AOC doesn't advertise is the ineffectiveness of it.
00:42:05.980 It's a way for women to tell themselves that they'll be able to conceive a child if they want 0.65
00:42:09.440 to, but most of the time they're paying to delay the inevitable, which is that in reality, they 0.91
00:42:15.200 will die alone, which of course is exactly what Democrats want. If you have no family, you're
00:42:20.420 more likely to be loyal to the state. You'll seek validation from politicians who will happily
00:42:25.940 provide it. And if they can't string a sentence together, who cares? At least they claim to be
00:42:32.540 interested in solving your problems, all of which you created yourself. With AOC's soft launch of
00:42:38.680 Woke 2.0, which is what we saw on Sunday, we can expect a lot more of this. In Woke 2.0,
00:42:45.140 Democrats are done with indirect messaging. They'll go right on camera and tell you exactly
00:42:49.720 what they want you to do. Instead of encouraging women to join the workforce, they'll demand that 1.00
00:42:52.900 you freeze your eggs, complete with a video demonstration. Instead of pretending that 1.00
00:42:58.020 they're prosecuting conservatives because no one's above the law, they'll just tell you straight up
00:43:02.120 that we need to abolish the rule of law entirely. It's a testament to how much they've transformed
00:43:07.880 the country and how much dumber we've collectively become, that their plan might work.
00:43:13.400 You might even say that AOC's interview on ABC News on Sunday was the opening silo of 0.93
00:43:18.440 Woke 2.0.
00:43:20.180 And based on how Democrats are already rallying behind her, despite her manifest incompetence 0.89
00:43:25.700 or maybe because of it, we can expect to see many more of these silos before the final 0.64
00:43:31.940 silo is announced, the nomination of AOC to be the next president of the United States.
00:43:39.540 That's the end of the show today. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Talk to you
00:43:41.740 tomorrow. Have a great day. Godspeed.
00:43:50.520 Your country is beneath contempt. We who love and serve Allah fought back against the Americans
00:43:59.620 and the Zionists from the scourge of secularism 0.77
00:44:03.120 and the lands of unbelief.
00:44:11.120 Anyone gonna listen to Captain Saunders tomorrow?
00:44:12.960 The retired Delta IV soldier with a new book out. 0.89
00:44:16.880 He's the polar opposite of those brain-dead protesters.
00:44:19.620 Given the current climate,
00:44:20.780 should Clay Saunders even be allowed on campus?
00:44:22.860 Mr. Saunders is a close personal friend
00:44:24.660 of Chancellor Friedman.
00:44:25.620 This is a decision I cannot find. 1.00
00:44:27.960 There are three ways Islam will conquer the West. 1.00
00:44:32.720 Through immigration, through the wombs of our women, 1.00
00:44:39.120 and by using our nation's freedoms against us. 1.00
00:44:46.920 Are you paying attention?
00:44:54.400 Listen carefully.
00:44:57.960 The great Satan America will fall. 1.00
00:45:06.720 You are infidels. 1.00
00:45:09.140 The bodies of women are not pure and the men's souls are unclean. 1.00
00:45:14.200 What makes them so dangerous? 1.00
00:45:16.840 Their goals are not in this life, but the next.
00:45:24.180 Anyone?
00:45:25.620 I got friends here. I can't just leave.
00:45:26.840 Listen to me!
00:45:27.960 In the law, we cannot run or hide from what is coming.
00:45:33.960 We have to fight.
00:45:35.260 I will be rewarded 10,000 times in the next life. 0.98
00:45:38.720 When you die, you're nothing. 0.92
00:45:40.960 Only one way to find out.
00:45:44.760 That's the American way.
00:45:57.960 Recently, our company's softball team lost the big game by one run.
00:46:03.440 Then Dale tried to console us with the quote,
00:46:05.900 winning isn't everything.
00:46:07.780 Well, Dale and I are very different.
00:46:11.440 I get early payout from Bet365.
00:46:13.520 If my team goes up big, I get paid out instantly,
00:46:16.180 even if they blow the lead later.
00:46:18.180 Sound familiar, Dale?
00:46:19.960 Thanks, Bet365.

00:46:29.040 Chew on this bold question from Dentine Gum.
00:46:32.280 Is it ever okay to compliment a millennial
00:46:34.980 on their skinny jeans in 2026?
00:46:41.360 Dentine, chew bold.
