The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 438 - Abortion Enthusiasts Lose Their Minds

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, the left comes apart at the seams, panics, goes into hysterics.

00:00:05.600 Stop me if you've heard this one before. In this case, because of a case that's being argued at

00:00:10.620 the Supreme Court right now that deals with abortion. In fact, we've reached the point

00:00:14.440 where Democratic senators are standing on the steps of the Supreme Court while cases are being

00:00:19.100 argued, calling out certain justices by name and issuing threats to try to intimidate them into

00:00:25.620 deciding the way that Democrats want. We'll talk about all of this, but what I really want to focus

00:00:29.720 on especially is the case itself and what it is exactly that Democrats are freaking out about.

00:00:36.120 Because when you see what they're freaking out about and what all the hysterics are really about,

00:00:43.180 it shows, it reveals the lie in the claim that abortion is healthcare. It reveals that even

00:00:48.840 they don't think that. So we'll talk about all that. Also, five headlines, including a very disturbing

00:00:55.020 headline about bigotry and hatred and intolerance right here at the Daily Wire. So you'll want to

00:01:01.980 hear about this. Apparently there's this guy named Matt Walsh, Matt Welsh, something like that. Never

00:01:07.480 heard of him. But this is a pretty unsavoured character and he's especially said something that's

00:01:13.900 pretty, pretty shocking and startling. So we'll talk about that. And then also we'll get to your emails

00:01:20.960 and there's someone in the emails who thinks that I'm very wrong about the coronavirus and thinks in

00:01:26.720 fact that what I've said about the coronavirus is reckless and dangerous. Is that true? We'll talk

00:01:32.240 about that as well. All of that and more coming up. But first, a word from Fairway. I've had the great

00:01:41.360 pleasure of eating some of Fairway's products and I've had the sirloin steak. I've had the T-bone.

00:01:49.800 I've had various cuts of pork. The thing I love about it is you don't have to be a great, you know,

00:01:55.800 I am a great chef. Let me just say that. But you don't have to be a great chef. It's just the meat

00:02:00.200 itself. It doesn't take a lot of seasoning. It's just all the flavors come out. It's delicious stuff

00:02:06.580 and it's much better cut of meat than what you're going to find at the grocery store.

00:02:11.820 And you're getting it for a better price as well. Fairway is a family-owned grocery chain that's

00:02:15.320 been in business since 1938. Fairway's premium beef and all-natural pork is raised by family

00:02:20.920 farmers hand-cut by a highly experienced team of Fairway butchers from ribs to ribeyes, pork chops,

00:02:26.560 beef tenderloin. If I had the beef tenderloin too, that was delicious. Their certified heritage pork

00:02:31.960 is crafted in small batches by Midwest Family Farms, making it the most succulent pork that

00:02:39.000 you're ever going to taste. Visit fairwaymeatmarket.com. You can select your favorite meat products

00:02:43.340 there. Like I said, this is way better than what you're going to find if you just go to your local

00:02:48.700 grocery store, your local grocery chain. You're going to get it from a better price as well. In fact,

00:02:52.860 this week, my listeners can get the Heartland package valued at $230 for just $99.99. So that's

00:02:59.980 less than $100. You're getting more than 50% off. Plus, you get free shipping when you enter Walsh

00:03:32.580 Look for the Heartland package. Again, fairwaymeatmarket.com. Promo code Walsh.

00:03:38.580 Look for the Heartland package. Okay. Now, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments yesterday in

00:03:45.540 the case of June Medical Services versus Rousseau. The case was brought by abortionists in Louisiana

00:03:51.380 who are very upset about a state law that would require abortion clinics to have admitting privileges

00:03:57.100 in local hospitals. In case, now the reason for that, in case something goes wrong during an abortion,

00:04:02.140 which can and does happen quite often, well, you're going to need to send the woman to a real 1.00

00:04:09.360 hospital so that they can be treated. Now, we're going to come back to this in a moment,

00:04:14.700 but that's what sets the stage. And that's what this case is about. So this is not a case that

00:04:21.060 would overturn Roe v. Wade. It's not a case that restricts abortion at all. In fact,

00:04:26.540 these are just some, it's not a case that touches on abortion itself at all. It's a very basic

00:04:34.880 regulation on abortion clinics requiring abortion clinics to take certain steps to ensure the safety

00:04:45.120 of their patients. But as we've learned time and time again, any restriction, any regulation,

00:04:52.160 any law, any mere suggestion that comes within 500 miles of abortion is cause for panic by abortion

00:05:00.240 supporters. And that's what happened yesterday in D.C. Speaker after speaker got up at their,

00:05:04.720 at their pro-abortion rally. And it just got crazier and crazier as time goes on,

00:05:08.780 as it always does with these leftist rallies. So let's start with Renee Sherman, 1.00

00:05:12.720 who calls herself the Beyonce of abortion storytelling. Now, I'm not sure what that means

00:05:18.180 exactly. Does it mean that when she gives her speeches, she lip syncs? I don't know exactly,

00:05:22.600 but let's, let's watch what she had to say. We're the abortion providers on! We're the future

00:05:28.920 abortion providers on! Woo! Awesome. And a special shout out to where my people who had abortions,

00:05:37.160 we're yelling! Nothing about this work is going to be without us! Woo! Awesome. So, as I said,

00:05:47.540 I had an abortion when I was 19. It was honestly one of the best decisions of my life. I was simply not

00:05:54.620 ready to become a parent, and that's really all you need to know! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Okay. Um,

00:06:04.380 you know what? That, that is perfect in many, in many ways. To begin with, it once again completely

00:06:15.640 annihilates the claim that nobody celebrates abortion. Okay? We, you've got a woman standing at a

00:06:22.800 microphone shouting, let's hear it for all the people who've had abortions! If that's not 0.98

00:06:28.460 celebrating abortion, then what is celebrating abortion? What does celebrating abortions look

00:06:34.500 like and sound like if not that? I mean, do you need actual confetti raining from the sky? Do we need

00:06:42.440 the actual champagne to be popped? Does there need to be a cake with rainbow sprinkles that has the

00:06:48.360 phrase, abortion is healthcare written in frosting? Well, that'd be absurd, of course. Nobody would ever,

00:06:54.340 oh wait, right. Yeah. Uh, thanks. Thanks, Miley. So, yes, the left celebrates abortion, celebrates it 0.51

00:07:02.260 all the time. There's no debate about that. But you can tell quite a lot from this celebration. That's

00:07:10.300 what I want to focus on. Because it's celebrating abortion, but this celebration is missing something,

00:07:16.480 isn't it? It's missing more than, than the confetti and the cake. It's, it's, it's missing, what's the

00:07:21.800 word? Um, what's the thing that you usually have in a celebration? Joy, happiness. So even as she's

00:07:32.080 shouting, let's hear it for all the people who've had abortions, the expression on her face is, is 1.00

00:07:37.200 empty. There's no smile. There's no happiness in her eyes. So it's just like, this is her face.

00:07:42.600 Let's hear it for all the people who've had abortions. Complete, not even the crack of a

00:07:48.700 smile. It's, it's, it's not even close to it. And then the yeas and the woos from the crowd are 0.98

00:07:53.500 lifeless, forced, unconvincing. Everyone's going, whoa, yeah, yes, go us. These are damaged, guilt-ridden,

00:08:04.980 bitter people who are trying to force themselves to be happy about what they've done by, by pretending

00:08:12.280 that they're happy. So this, as I, as I always say with, with the celebration of abortion, 0.86

00:08:17.080 a shot year abortion, they're trying to convince themselves. They're not convincing you. They're 0.99

00:08:21.000 not even talking to you. They're talking to themselves. They might as well, they might as

00:08:25.340 well just imagine every time you see this kind of thing, just imagine a mirror and they're

00:08:29.400 talking into the mirror. This, this, the, the Beyonce of abortion storytelling, she probably 0.96

00:08:35.300 gets up every single morning and looks in the mirror and says, let's hear it for all the

00:08:39.060 people who've had abortions. We're happy. Yes, we're very happy, but it never works.

00:08:46.140 It's a fake it till you make it strategy, but they're never going to make it. They're never

00:08:50.900 going to be happy until they admit to themselves that, that what they did was evil and horrible

00:08:56.120 and horrendous and hideous. And then at that point, now I'm not saying that a woman who has 1.00

00:09:02.380 abortion can never be happy or satisfied in her life. Again, I'm not saying that I'm saying 0.92

00:09:06.760 once you begin, just like with anything else that you, that you're feeling guilty about

00:09:11.460 that you've done, even something that's less serious than killing your own child. But if

00:09:17.300 you want to get past it, if you want to get past that guilt, you're not going to get past

00:09:20.420 it by repressing it, by pretending, trying to convince yourself it was okay. That's a

00:09:24.680 rationalization. You'll spend your whole life rationalizing it. It has to begin by saying,

00:09:28.840 yes, this was wrong. It was a horrible thing. You start with that, you face it, you confront

00:09:33.720 it, you admit, um, and then you can finally begin to heal. Women can find healing after 1.00

00:09:40.180 abortions, but it's not going to be a healing through denial. There's no such thing as, as

00:09:45.560 healing through denial. It doesn't happen. So for them, as long as they're trying to fool

00:09:52.300 themselves, uh, it's, they're not going to heal. Speaking of joyless and lifeless, here's

00:09:59.440 Rashida Tlaib. This past year, I realized, my, my, my, are they obsessed with our bodies,

00:10:05.740 how we talk, how we look, what we stand for. I mean, this type of policing of our bodies

00:10:12.000 is so interconnected to all the social justice movements all around the country. I represent

00:10:17.900 the third poorest congressional district in the country. This issue is an economic justice

00:10:23.280 issue. This issue is a racial justice issue. And let me tell you this obsession with our

00:10:30.280 bodies. You know, I, in the legislature, in the Michigan legislature for six years, used

00:10:35.420 to say people to people, yo, yo, you know what? You're so freaking obsessed with what I decide

00:10:41.260 to do with my body. Maybe you shouldn't even want to have sex with me or with you or with 0.99

00:10:46.280 any women. The power that we have over our bodies to push back and use that power and 1.00

00:10:53.620 saying enough is enough. We won't stand by for you to commercialize, for you to profit,

00:10:59.860 for you to do all the things you do to what? To make us less than in this country, because

00:11:06.460 that's what it does. So I want you to know there is more of us than them. Yo, yo, yo, check

00:11:13.740 it. Maybe you shouldn't want to have sex with me. Well, Rashida, I will respect your wishes 0.99

00:11:20.540 on that front. I, uh, I, I, I, I will done and done. Okay. That's you, you got it. No

00:11:30.380 argument from me. In fact, this, this might be the only thing that Rashida Tlaib has ever

00:11:36.800 said that both sides can agree on. Indeed, I believe we have forged a bipartisan consensus

00:11:43.300 on this particular issue. This is the issue that will unite the entire country. And it's

00:11:48.040 coming from Rashida Tlaib. I never thought, whoever thought that she would be the one to

00:11:53.500 say something. And everybody in America can unite in one voice and say, yes, we agree.

00:12:00.500 You know, I've noticed something. Feminists in one breath insist that their bodies are none 1.00

00:12:04.760 of our business. Yet, uh, as soon as they finished saying that they get right back to talking incessantly

00:12:12.720 about their bodies, divulging details we didn't ask for, and we didn't want to hear shouting about

00:12:19.620 their sex lives constantly shoving it in our faces while telling us it's none of our business. 0.84

00:12:25.700 All of these details I'm telling you about my sex life are none of your business. Yes, I agree.

00:12:32.640 I totally agree. So shut up. How about that? There's a good solution. 1.00

00:12:39.700 And that brings us, uh, speaking of people who need to shut up, that brings us to Chuck Schumer,

00:12:43.600 Chuck Schumer, uh, of course, uh, who by the way, has the distinction of among all us senators

00:12:48.780 looking the most like a Batman villain. Um, but yesterday he decided to really take that role as

00:12:55.660 the bat, as the Batman villain seriously. And I'm going to play that, uh, that clip for you in just

00:13:00.980 a second. If you haven't seen this, this is all, it's nearly unbelievable. It gets right up to the

00:13:08.180 edge of, of you can hardly believe that even a Democrat would say this, but, uh, we'll play that

00:13:13.640 for you in just a second. But first let's check in with our good friends over at Tommy John.

00:13:18.780 You know, when it comes to comfort, especially comfort, uh, beneath your outer garments,

00:13:25.220 shall we say there's underwear. And then there's Tommy John, the revolutionary clothing brand.

00:13:29.780 That's redefined comfort for Americans everywhere, including myself to put it simply, Tommy John,

00:13:34.860 uh, doesn't give an F that is they give three Fs. They don't just give one. They give three

00:13:39.340 fabric, fit and function. I think all of those things you're going to want when it comes to underwear,

00:13:44.120 Tommy John obsesses over every little detail in stitch. And you can really tell, I could tell,

00:13:48.240 you know, when you, when you see the product, uh, when you, uh, when you put it on, you can tell

00:13:52.980 that this is, they've put a lot of time into, you know, they're not just, they're not just throwing

00:13:57.700 something together. This is every, every stitch counts by using proprietary fabrics that perform

00:14:02.860 like nothing you've ever worn before. As a result, Tommy John's men's and women's underwear

00:14:06.100 sport, a no wedgie guarantee, comfortable, uh, stay put waistbands, which is an important aspect of

00:14:13.880 wearing underwear and a range of fabrics that are soft, feather light, moisture wicking, breathable,

00:14:19.720 designed to move with you, not against you. And that means that there's no bunching. There's no

00:14:24.380 riding up. And, uh, Tommy John is so confident in the underwear that if you don't love your first

00:14:29.040 pair, you can get a full refund with their best pale, best pair you'll ever wear, or it's free

00:14:34.880 guarantee. Uh, you give, if you, if you, if you want to give three Fs about your underwear and

00:14:40.860 upgrade with Tommy John's again, that's fabric fit and function. Then you want to go to Tommy John's,

00:14:45.280 uh, hurry to tommyjohn.com slash Walsh for 20% off your first order. That's tommyjohn.com slash

00:14:51.660 Walsh for 20% off your first order, tommyjohn.com slash Walsh. Go there now. Okay. Chuck Schumer,

00:15:00.020 um, auditioning for his role in the next Batman film. This is what he had to say.

00:15:04.880 I want to tell you Gorsuch, I want to tell you Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you

00:15:12.680 will pay the price. You won't know what hit you. So what, what has happened here? Just,

00:15:21.680 just to review is, is Chuck Schumer, um, United States Senator has called out Kavanaugh and Gorsuch

00:15:26.720 by name and says that they have released the whirlwind. They will quote, pay the price

00:15:33.680 and they won't know what hit them. Now, these remarks have provoked condemnation for many

00:15:40.240 people, rightfully so, including, uh, Chief Justice Roberts and Donald Trump, President Trump.

00:15:45.760 Uh, Schumer spokesman has tried to justify this and has said, this is what he said. It, it, it was,

00:15:52.600 speaking of the threat saying, it was a reference to the political price Republicans will pay for

00:15:57.100 putting them on the court and a warning that the justices will unleash major grassroots movements

00:16:02.540 on the issue of reproductive rights against the decision. So it's a political price. BS bull nonsense

00:16:11.520 political price that Republicans will pay. Well then that's what you would have said. You will,

00:16:18.780 you would have said, I'm talking to you Republicans. You've unleashed the whirlwind,

00:16:22.880 et cetera, et cetera. He didn't say that. He called out two justices by name. They're not

00:16:29.620 politicians. They're not elected. Justices don't pay political prices. What, what does a Supreme

00:16:35.000 Court justice care about a grassroots movement? A grassroots movement can do nothing to the Supreme

00:16:40.700 Court. It makes no difference to a justice what happens to the political party or what the

00:16:45.800 grassroots movements are doing. Uh, they stay in their position regardless. Uh, they still decide

00:16:52.220 cases. So to claim that a reference to a political price that a lifetime appointed judge will pay,

00:16:59.880 you know, that, that, that claim is incoherent by definition. That's sort of the whole point of them

00:17:07.180 being lifetime appointees is so that they can't pay political prices and they can't be threatened

00:17:14.480 with political repercussions. That is the whole point. Schumer is just too much of a rat,

00:17:22.380 too much of a coward, uh, to, to stand by his own words. This was obviously a threat, 1.00

00:17:28.780 an attempt at intimidation. And I'm not saying that Schumer is, is hatching some sort of plan to send

00:17:36.920 assassins after, uh, after Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, although maybe you can't put it past them, but

00:17:41.740 I'm not saying that I think it was, this was from Schumer. His intention was for it to be a sort

00:17:48.760 of vague, general, intimidating statement that, Hey, you better watch out. I'm, I'm whipping up this

00:17:58.340 crowd. I'm making them angry. And, uh, and you know, you don't want to have a call. You don't

00:18:02.840 want to have a whole crowd of people, a whole bunch of people that, that hate your guts. That's all I'm

00:18:06.060 saying. You might pay a price for that. Not saying what kind of price just, there might be a price.

00:18:13.600 It doesn't, you don't have to be a detective to put the dots together to understand what he's saying.

00:18:19.900 And, and again, if, if, if it's not a physical price, then what kind of price are you talking

00:18:25.360 about? We've already established that it can't be a political price. So tell me what you mean.

00:18:28.900 He can't say. So saying that it's some sort of physical intimidation, that's the only reasonable

00:18:35.600 interpretation. Um, now I'm not a legal expert, but I'm pretty sure it's not legal to threaten a

00:18:42.700 Supreme court justice in order to influence his decision in a case. It's not legal to threaten

00:18:48.000 judges in general to influence their decisions in cases or for any other reason. And, and there

00:18:55.580 are actually specific laws against uttering threats on Supreme court grounds, which is what Chuck Schumer

00:19:01.540 just did. U S code reading now from the website of a Cornell lawsuit law school says it is unlawful

00:19:09.020 to discharge a firearm, firework, or explosive set fire to a combustible, make a harangue or oration

00:19:14.660 or utter loud, threatening or abusive language in the Supreme court building or on grounds.

00:19:21.220 Loud, threatening, abusive language. It's exactly what you heard there.

00:19:24.600 It's against the law. Schumer broke the law period. He should be arrested for it.

00:19:30.860 And that's not a joke. It shouldn't sound like a joke. I know that's, that's, that's the point

00:19:36.120 we've gotten to in this country where I say a Senator should be arrested for breaking the law.

00:19:41.060 And it sounds like I'm joking. It sounds ridiculous. The, the, the thought of a, of a, of a U S 0.98

00:19:46.560 Senator facing any kind of legal penalty for breaking a law is almost funny. It makes you laugh.

00:19:52.480 The thought of it. Well, it shouldn't be funny. He's not special. He's not above the law. Even

00:19:57.460 if he's, even if that's been the way it's worked, it shouldn't work that way. And he should be

00:20:04.160 arrested for it. I don't want to hear just verbal condemnations from Republicans. Yeah, that too.

00:20:11.180 But why not send the police to arrest this guy who just threatened Supreme court justices

00:20:18.980 on the steps of the Supreme court. Now let's circle back here for a moment, because I want

00:20:24.400 to emphasize what this is actually about. Like I said at the beginning, this is not a case

00:20:27.920 that would overturn Roe v. Wade. It's not anything close to that. It's a case centering around a law

00:20:33.360 in one state that would require abortion clinics to have admitting privileges. Uh, the, that is the 1.00

00:20:38.100 ability to admit patients into the hospital. And the reason for that is, is very obvious.

00:20:44.160 If there's a medical emergency, you need to be able to send the patient to the hospital and you

00:20:49.180 don't want to just put them in their car and, and, and say, well, go to the, go to the nearest

00:20:53.460 emergency room and wait there. No, you don't want to do that. You need to get them right into the

00:20:56.720 hospital. And that's what the admitting privileges is for now. Um, any other outpatient

00:21:04.040 medical clinic surgery center is going, is going to have admitting privileges at a local hospital.

00:21:09.740 This is a very standard regulation that healthcare clinics face. And in any other,

00:21:18.680 I say other in quotes, any other, uh, health clinic wouldn't object to it because they would say,

00:21:24.820 yes, of course we should, it should have that. So this reveals the lie. Now they say abortion is

00:21:33.600 healthcare. Just like you saw on Miley, Miley's cake there. Abortion is healthcare. That's what 1.00

00:21:38.040 they tell us. Uh, Ilhan Omar sent out a tweet yesterday. Abortion is healthcare period.

00:21:43.520 That's what they say. Now you say abortion is healthcare. My question is healthcare. Okay.

00:21:47.880 Well then what illness or injury is it treating? If something is healthcare, then it should be

00:21:52.700 treating some sort of malady, some sort of illness or injury. And what, what, what does,

00:21:57.880 what does abortion treat exactly? I know the answer. It treats pregnancy, but pregnancy is not a

00:22:03.480 malady. It's not an illness. It's not a, it's not an injury. So it's not healthcare,

00:22:08.260 but you claim that it is. If you're a pro abortion person. Okay. Well then if these are

00:22:13.640 healthcare clinics, let's treat them like any other healthcare medical clinic, they should have

00:22:17.840 the exact same regulations. You said it. So they say it's, it's, it's healthcare. These are medical

00:22:24.920 clinics. We say, okay, well then let's give it the same regulations. Oh, we can't do that.

00:22:29.300 That's an attack on women. Would you ever say, you know, the, whatever, um, regulations, a, uh, 0.99

00:22:38.160 the orthodontist office has to, has to, uh, uh, abide by. Would we call that an attack on

00:22:49.620 patients of the orthodontist clinic? Would we say that health and safety guidelines of orthodontists

00:22:58.080 that those guidelines are an attack on the patients of the orthodontist clinic makes no sense?

00:23:07.280 It's the exact opposite of an attack on the patients. It's meant to protect the patients.

00:23:13.140 So they don't of course believe what they say themselves. All right, let's move on to headlines.

00:23:18.120 Number one, CNN reports a cruise ship passenger died from coronavirus less than two weeks after he

00:23:23.780 returned home, marking California's first death as the disease sickens people in 15 states.

00:23:29.040 The death reported Wednesday was linked to the grand princess cruise ship and was the first

00:23:33.200 coronavirus fatality outside Washington state where 10 people have died. The cruise ships being held off

00:23:37.960 the California coast. So federal health officials can screen the people aboard some of whom were on an

00:23:43.100 earlier cruise with the California victim. The unidentified victim was 71 and had underlying health

00:23:48.800 conditions. Now we should note that those deaths in Washington state are at a nursing home, which has

00:23:54.940 been particularly hard hit by the illness. This again underscores the point that the virus is mostly

00:24:00.280 killing people who are elderly or already sick, which doesn't make it any less sad. It's still a tragedy,

00:24:05.940 of course, but it does put into perspective who is actually at risk here, um, of dying or becoming

00:24:13.540 seriously ill from the coronavirus. And that's what this, we need to have perspective. We need to have

00:24:18.920 an appropriate in proportion risk assessment of the coronavirus. And we'll get back to that in, uh,

00:24:26.420 in emails in just a minute. Number two, Elizabeth Warren supporters are not taking her humiliation 0.84

00:24:32.960 and failure lying down. They've gone into the arsenal of weapons and, uh, they've pulled out the only

00:24:38.800 weapon they have, which of course is to accuse everybody of sexism. That's all they've got the

00:24:43.560 S bomb that they drop on everybody. Yes. Because the only conceivable reason that anyone could ever

00:24:49.000 have for a disliking Elizabeth Warren is if they hate all women. Imagine thinking that imagine,

00:24:55.740 imagine thinking that Elizabeth Warren, Elizabeth Warren is such an appealing figure. So objectively

00:25:03.720 appealing that the only reason you could ever have for disliking her is if you have a, a, a disdain

00:25:10.960 for all women in general. Like that's the only possible explanation. Now I've seen a lot of 1.00

00:25:17.400 arguments like this one. This is from June Diane Raphael, who's an actress apparently. And she says,

00:25:22.880 um, she says, stop telling your daughters they could be president when you are unwilling to vote for a

00:25:29.220 woman president, unwilling to vote for a woman president. That's what you hear from Warren 1.00

00:25:34.820 supporters. I know. Why are you all unwilling to vote for a woman? No, we're just unwilling to vote 0.98

00:25:41.440 for that woman. It's not women. It's that woman. You know, so this is like saying, uh, stop saying you

00:25:50.520 like food. If you're unwilling to eat the spoiled yogurt in my fridge. I mean, you say you like food,

00:25:57.960 but then I served up a nice heaping bowl of moldy, sour, spoiled, uh, rancid yogurt and you wouldn't

00:26:05.620 eat it. So it seems like you've got a problem with food. Of course that makes no sense. It's, it's,

00:26:14.720 it's, it's not food. It's that particular dish you've put in front of me. It's not women. It's 1.00

00:26:21.100 that particular woman you've put in front of us as voters, by the way, watch how quickly all of 1.00

00:26:26.900 these arguments disappear when Nikki Haley runs for president in 2024, which she probably will.

00:26:32.740 I imagine what, what all of this stuff goes out the window immediately. Number three, uh, and some

00:26:39.540 bad news today, unfortunately next month, an asteroid that could be as large as two and a half miles wide

00:26:45.140 will fly right by the earth, just missing us. So close. Damn it. That was such a tease.

00:26:53.260 All these asteroids, you know, it's a real problem in the asteroid community. They're all a bunch of

00:26:58.060 teases. Just to give you an idea of what we're missing, uh, with this, this thing that could be

00:27:03.840 the solution to all of our problems. An asteroid that's a mile wide hitting earth at, you know,

00:27:09.540 they would be about 30,000 miles an hour. Uh, that would have the impact of 1 million megaton bombs,

00:27:14.740 or it would be 10 times, it would be 10 million times more destructive than an atomic bomb. Um,

00:27:22.520 pretty much no matter where it hits, then you'd be looking at global destruction.

00:27:26.120 So just to give some perspective on that, an asteroid that's only a fraction of that size,

00:27:30.620 an asteroid that's the size of say a townhouse would be enough to, um, flatten an entire city.

00:27:36.940 It would be like, you know, it would be the effect of, of the Hiroshima bomb basically.

00:27:41.380 Exactly. So close, but no cigar, maybe next time. Number four. And of course the good news is that,

00:27:48.420 um, at least the world will be wiped out by climate change either way, you know, in 10 years. So

00:27:54.680 number four, and the next big primaries in Michigan next week, uh, an article in Politico argues that

00:28:00.420 Biden could finish, finish off Bernie there. Uh, Bernie won Michigan in 2016. Looks like by the,

00:28:06.620 according to the polls, he's seven points down right now. So if he loses Michigan, then,

00:28:11.920 then the argument is that it's, it's kind of over for him. I hate to keep beating this drum, but

00:28:16.480 if Biden wins the nomination and then the general, we're going to be in a position,

00:28:22.640 this is a serious thing. We're going to be in a position of not knowing really who's in charge

00:28:27.040 because Biden is in the middle of a precipitous mental decline. It's only going to get worse.

00:28:34.240 So what happens when he has full blown dementia? Does anybody know? What do we do? How will we

00:28:41.540 know? Will they tell us when Biden loses his mind? Are they going to, is, can we trust the

00:28:48.140 administration to tell us that that's what's happening? And what do we do from there?

00:28:52.800 And, and, and what about on the way to completely losing his mind? At what point

00:28:57.600 do we, is the line drawn? And, and we say, okay, we've got to, we've got to get him out of here.

00:29:03.900 Well, nobody, we are, we are entering into uncharted territory. So I guess we're going to find out

00:29:09.740 finally disturbing headline here. Look at this. It says daily wire host calls for hosts call for

00:29:17.460 extreme measures, including violence against drag Queens. This is for media matters. Of course, 0.92

00:29:22.960 the article says the daily wires, Matt Walsh and Michael Knowles called for drastic measures to

00:29:28.080 prevent drag Queens from being around children with Walsh explicitly calling for violence against 1.00

00:29:32.880 them by saying, quote, real men should kick a drag queen, quote, out on his ass and call the police. 0.99

00:29:39.280 It's not funny. It's very serious. Walsh also said that the adults in a room in which a drag queen 1.00

00:29:44.880 danced in front of a child, quote, should be going to prison. And Knowles called on, quote,

00:29:49.300 the arm of the state to stop this. The daily wires, official YouTube account uploaded video

00:29:55.120 of Walsh's extreme comments made during the Matt Walsh show podcast, which has received more than 31,000

00:30:00.520 views. The video cuts off before Walsh's explicit calls for violence, but includes his claim that the

00:30:05.460 adults should be arrested for letting a drag queen perform in front of a child. Wow. This is pretty 1.00

00:30:13.720 horrifying stuff. And I personally won't stand for this kind of bigotry. I don't know who this Matt

00:30:21.680 Walsh guy is. I've heard of Michael Knowles. No surprise that he's saying bigoted stuff. It's

00:30:28.020 exactly what you'd expect from him. But, you know, what they're actually referring to was a video where

00:30:34.020 a drag queen dances suggestively for a little girl while she looks on horrified and all the adults in 0.97

00:30:39.600 the room are applauding. So this wasn't calling for violence against drag queens generally. It was calling

00:30:45.320 for men to take action to defend children from sexual grooming and abuse. That was the point. Okay.

00:30:53.140 The point was, if a child is being abused, exploited, harassed, any decent man, any real man, would step in,

00:31:00.400 step up, and put a stop to it. But still, yes. Horribly bigoted. Very dangerous. Only a bigot. Only a bigot.

00:31:09.000 would be opposed to the sexual harassment of a child. That's the only reason that anyone could

00:31:14.160 be opposed to that. I cannot think of any other reason why a person would be upset about this.

00:31:20.020 There just isn't any other reason. Honestly. And don't worry. This is not about normalizing

00:31:27.480 pedophilia. I mean, we're only accusing people of bigotry if they're outraged by the sight of a

00:31:35.360 cross-dressing man in booty shorts dancing for a child. We're just, that's it. We're shaming people 0.99

00:31:41.300 for being against that. But no, that doesn't logically end in the normalization and defense

00:31:45.800 of pedophilia. Not at all. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I know it really seems like that's where it's

00:31:51.540 headed, but it's not. And if you ever say that, you're a bigot too. Anyway, again, whoever said those

00:31:58.660 things, whoever that was, I denounce it personally. Disavow it. And I just, I don't want any part of

00:32:07.600 it. All right. We're going to move on to your daily cancellation. But before we do, you know,

00:32:14.500 the Daily Wire's own Andrew Klavan, who you know and love, has released the second entry in his

00:32:20.200 excellent Another Kingdom trilogy. Austin Lively, once just an out-of-luck Hollywood screenwriter,

00:32:26.440 is now a chosen hero caught between two worlds in dual quests in both Los Angeles, California,

00:32:31.180 and the magical medieval world of Galliano. You can experience this adventure yourself.

00:32:37.300 You've heard the podcast, of course. The podcast is wildly popular. Millions of people have watched

00:32:43.840 it, and I know I have. But you can get the book today on Amazon. Andrew Klavan is, if you've never

00:32:50.320 read any of his books, it shouldn't surprise you to learn that he's just a great natural writer.

00:32:55.780 Makes me kind of jealous myself as someone who attempts to write that obviously comes so naturally

00:33:00.680 to him. So I would absolutely recommend going to get that book right now on Amazon. Now, for your

00:33:06.480 daily cancellation, and it's the Huffington Post on the chopping block today. So come on down,

00:33:11.760 Huffington Post. Yesterday, Huffington Post published this article. It says, I'm demisexual.

00:33:19.940 Here's what I want you to know. I was 23 when I finally discovered there was a word for my

00:33:26.080 experiences and feelings. And the article consists of a long personal history, a memoir of this woman

00:33:32.380 who's coming out as demisexual. Very brave, very bold, very beautiful. And after this long preamble

00:33:40.980 about her romantic life, we finally get to this. She says, my friends would gush over the cute guys in

00:33:46.640 school and I played along. I trusted them entirely. So I figured if they thought those boys were cute,

00:33:51.800 they had to be right. I never fully understand, understood what it was that was so appealing to

00:33:57.760 them. They were usually nice, but I had no idea why my friends wanted to kiss them. I knew close to

00:34:02.700 nothing about most of them. There was no inkling of sexual or physical attraction to people I didn't

00:34:07.300 know very well, even after puberty. And now as an adult, I realize that's exactly what demisexuality is.

00:34:13.620 I'm attracted to someone only after I develop a deeper emotional connection with them.

00:34:18.640 I can count on one hand, the number of men I've kissed in my life or have been attracted to.

00:34:22.740 And I have no problem with that number. In no way do I feel that I've missed out

00:34:26.140 because to my body's inclination, I'd much rather have a seven hour long conversation with someone

00:34:31.020 than be physically intimate with them. So there you go. That's demisexuality. 0.99

00:34:37.540 Women who prefer to develop deep emotional connections, women who would rather talk, 0.98

00:34:44.720 who just want to talk, you know, would rather do that than be physically intimate.

00:34:49.000 They are demisexuals. So in other words, every woman is a demisexual. 0.99

00:34:56.240 To one extent, every woman is on the demisexual spectrum. Let's put it that way. 1.00

00:35:00.100 You know, there may be varying degrees, but every woman is in that range. 1.00

00:35:06.880 So call me crazy, and I don't mean to try to otherize or erase demisexuals. Far be it for me. 1.00

00:35:16.760 Far be it for me to be demophobic. But I really think we don't need a separate word for this.

00:35:24.560 You know, I think just woman is fine, because we all kind of get it.

00:35:29.360 We know that that's part of the thing. And even if it wasn't so common, right,

00:35:35.640 we still wouldn't need a word for it. It's not its own sexuality. It's not a whole new thing.

00:35:43.560 You know, someone who's attracted to another person based more on their personality,

00:35:48.440 that's not, that's, it's pretty normal. It's just, you don't need a new word for that.

00:35:54.340 There are some people who find a sense of humor to be especially attractive.

00:35:58.500 There are other people who don't care quite as much about that. We don't need a, we don't need

00:36:02.200 a name for that. We don't need to call them homosexuals. As fun as that would be to have that 1.00

00:36:08.580 label out there. So this becomes a problem for the LGBT narrative, actually, because we're told

00:36:14.220 that LGBT folks are persecuted and oppressed. Yet we also see how people are positively desperate

00:36:21.280 to be a part of this, to be a part of the LGBT club. Everybody wants to get into the abbreviation,

00:36:28.140 the holy sacred abbreviation. Everybody's trying to barge their way in, trying to find a way in.

00:36:33.380 No, I'm a demisexual. I'm in a, you know, LGBTQD. There's a D in there somewhere. 0.88

00:36:38.540 People are so determined not to be plain old heterosexual that they're finding ways to slip

00:36:46.520 out of the heterosexual camp. It's like at night, they slip out and they try to sneak into the LGBT 1.00

00:36:52.160 camp. Trust me, I'm in the heterosexual camp. And every morning it's like we wake up and we do roll

00:37:00.600 call and we find that someone else has defected. It's very sad. Sometimes we can see them running

00:37:07.200 away. We'll see a guy kind of running away over the hill and we'll shout to him. We'll say, hey,

00:37:12.300 hey, where are you going? What are you doing? And he'll shout back and say, oh, sorry, I'm,

00:37:16.660 I'm, I'm, I'm leaving. I got to, I discovered that I'm, I'm actually, it turns out I, I'm a

00:37:22.620 blondesexual. I, I prefer women with blonde hair. So I'm blondesexual. I'm going over to the LGBT. 1.00

00:37:29.460 I'm getting in there on the B. It's part of the thing. But blondesexual isn't a thing though. 1.00

00:37:34.740 It's not a, everybody likes blonde women. Come back. And then they disappear over the horizon 1.00

00:37:40.460 and all the straight men mourn the loss of our brother in arms. And then we put on our cargo

00:37:47.440 shorts and we'd carry on with our lives. Anyway, this just doesn't seem like the kind of thing

00:37:53.380 that would happen if LGBT people were really persecuted. I don't think people would be

00:37:58.760 trying. So it's generally, when there's a persecuted minority, you don't generally have

00:38:04.420 people claiming to be in that category, even when they're not. That's not usually what happens,

00:38:11.260 right? Finally, let's go to emails. MattWalshow at gmail.com. MattWalshow at gmail.com. This is

00:38:20.120 from Adam says, good morning, theocratic fascist overlord. I work for a gym focusing on being a

00:38:25.080 family center. We have multiple locations in central Maryland. As you know, Maryland is a

00:38:30.020 very left-leaning area. And so the place I work is as well. I was recently asked to replace the

00:38:35.120 signage for our one-off restrooms. Currently they have the kind of sign you see on any restroom,

00:38:41.180 the little outline of a man or woman. I'm being asked to find signs that say all gender restrooms,

00:38:47.380 like the picture attached. And there's a picture of the sign. Since I believe the truth and know that

00:38:52.340 there are only men and women, should I not go along with this? I see an easy compromise. It's 0.97

00:38:57.280 simply putting a sign that says restroom, but I'm not sure how to present this without having the woke 1.00

00:39:02.160 crowd jump on me. I cannot wait till you assume your true mantle as ruler of this insane world. 0.89

00:39:08.140 We don't have to deal with things like this. Thank you for your response. Well, Adam, so you say

00:39:14.120 one-off restroom. So I assume you mean, so that's a single person. Is that what that means? I don't

00:39:20.380 know what one-off restroom means. So if we're talking about single person restrooms,

00:39:24.400 then first of all, I don't think there's any problem here. I don't think there's any moral

00:39:29.800 quandary. Now, if it was a multi-person restroom and they were trying to get you to set it up so

00:39:38.140 that any gender can go in there, then I think that's a situation where you have to say, no, 0.99

00:39:42.320 I'm not doing that. That's crazy. It's dangerous. But there's no reason for a single person restroom to

00:39:47.640 be, this is the one compromise I'll give to the other side of this discussion when it comes to

00:39:53.700 the restrooms. Yes, single person restrooms, there's no reason for them not to be 1.00

00:39:59.580 available to men or women, right? Because there's only one person in there at a time. So I, you know,

00:40:09.440 I don't, I don't, I wouldn't see a necessarily see a problem with putting all gender on there. Yeah,

00:40:14.660 it's, it should, both gender should be the phrase. All gender makes it sound like there's more than 0.77

00:40:20.820 two, but it doesn't necessarily mean that because all, you know, so all genders, well, there's only

00:40:27.400 two. So all means two. So I, you know, I wouldn't necessarily see, I don't think it's something you

00:40:33.940 need to get yourself fired over. I don't think that they're asking you directly to deny the truth.

00:40:40.580 If they were, then, then I think that's where you take a stand, but, but, but they're not,

00:40:44.700 you know, putting that sign on there is just a little bit of PC. It's silly, ridiculous PC 0.97

00:40:51.360 pandering, but it doesn't really matter anyway. Okay, let's move on. This is from Noah says, 0.99

00:40:57.080 Matt, you're wrong about the coronavirus. Your comparison of the coronavirus and the flu is faulty

00:41:01.900 and shows your scientific ignorance. The coronavirus has a much higher mortality rate,

00:41:06.440 two to 3%. It spreads before symptoms are shown and it has different, different effects on the

00:41:12.100 body. Trying to minimize this epidemic is irresponsible and dangerous. You really are

00:41:17.460 wrong about this and you owe it to your listeners to do better research before spouting off about a

00:41:22.360 subject like this. Okay, no, I'm not sure you understand my point. First of all, you don't know

00:41:28.740 that the mortality rate of coronavirus is two or 3%. It almost certainly is not. Now I know that's the

00:41:35.340 reported mortality rate, but as I explained on the show a couple of days ago, that's the mortality rate

00:41:40.460 for reported cases. So people that have the symptoms, they go to the doctor, they get tested,

00:41:44.820 they, they come back positive. If they recover, okay, that's someone who's going to count against

00:41:50.360 the mortality rate. So two or 3% to this point of people who've reported, who have tested positive

00:41:59.740 for it, have been reported as positive for coronavirus have died. Most of them in China.

00:42:06.920 The issue is that in most cases, in the vast majority of cases, the symptoms for coronavirus

00:42:13.340 are very mild. It's going to be the symptoms of a, of a, of a, of a cold fever, cough, right?

00:42:19.260 Runny nose, that kind of thing. Um, which means almost certainly, I can't say this for sure,

00:42:24.860 but it just, it stands to reason common sense would tell you that there have probably been

00:42:29.940 many thousands of people who've had the coronavirus, but that it was just mild symptoms. So they didn't

00:42:37.040 go and get tested for it, especially before this was all over the headlines and recovered. And yet

00:42:43.580 just nobody knows, nobody ever found out about it. So they don't, they don't count against the mortality

00:42:49.060 rate, which is why the real mortality rate is almost certainly a lot less than, than two or

00:42:55.380 3%. I don't know what it is, but neither do you. Second, my point about the flu is not to say that

00:43:00.920 they're the same or equally as dangerous. I agree that having the coronavirus is probably more dangerous

00:43:07.340 than having the flu. We don't know the mortality rate again, but it probably is. I, it's, it's,

00:43:15.480 it seems like it'd be a good guess to say that the mortality rate, the real mortality rate is

00:43:20.440 probably still a higher than it is for the flu. So if you had to choose between having the coronavirus

00:43:26.200 or the flu, I think you would choose the flu, but this is about risk assessment. Yes, you are more

00:43:32.280 likely to die from the coronavirus if you have it. Um, but you are much, much, much, much, much,

00:43:41.740 much, much more likely to get the flu and not the coronavirus, which means that as you stand there

00:43:48.420 right now as a healthy person, you are much, much, much, much, much, much, much more likely to die

00:43:53.500 of the flu than you are to die of the coronavirus are, although chances are you're not going to die

00:43:58.280 of either one. You're going to die of something, but probably not one of those. Um, millions of people

00:44:03.760 get the flu. Hundreds of thousands die of it across the world every single year. Those numbers are

00:44:09.440 exponentially greater than it is for the coronavirus right now. So it's risk assessment.

00:44:15.520 What's the risk that you get the coronavirus? Very small. If you do get it, what's the risk that

00:44:21.520 you die of it? Again, very small. So it's a small risk on top of a small risk. What's the risk of you

00:44:28.120 getting the flu? Much greater, right? What's the reason for stipulating this? Well, because it's good

00:44:35.060 to have a healthy perspective on the dangers that we face as people. Our survival depends on it,

00:44:41.840 on being good risk assessors. We have to be able to do that. Um, not because we should be dismissive

00:44:48.360 of the coronavirus, but just because it's smart to be more, more focused on the things that are more

00:44:53.100 likely to be threats to us. Unfortunately, the problem is that the media sensationalism often,

00:44:59.540 you know, gets us worried, not just with the coronavirus, but in general, we get worried about things

00:45:03.580 that are, that are on the fringes as far as threats that are probably not going to affect us.

00:45:10.360 But the media focuses on those things because they're, uh, uncommon and that makes them more

00:45:16.660 sensational and, and more interesting to report on. So we get focused on that. And oftentimes at the

00:45:21.900 expense of focusing on things that are more important. And that's why you have the, I think,

00:45:27.620 rather absurd dichotomy of people who are going out and buying surgical masks because of the

00:45:31.820 coronavirus yet, uh, yet haven't even gotten their flu shot. Bethany Mandel on Twitter made

00:45:38.460 a great analogy. Uh, she said that it's like parents who worry about their, their kids being

00:45:43.460 kidnapped. So they don't let their kids play outside on their own. Yet a lot of those very

00:45:48.120 same parents will put their kids in the car seat and not properly, um, and not properly hook in the

00:45:54.200 car seat. You know, when you put the kid in the car seat, you need to have the strap, uh, up closer to

00:45:59.020 up on their chest. You need to make sure that it's tight. A lot of parents just throw their kid

00:46:02.940 in the car seat, you know, buckle it up. Don't even worry about adjusting it. And, um, your kid

00:46:08.920 is much, much, much more likely to die in a car accident because he's not properly strapped in

00:46:14.380 than he is to die from being kidnapped. Now, if your kid is kidnapped, God forbid, then he,

00:46:21.440 in that scenario, in that context is of course going to be at a much greater risk than a kid who's in an,

00:46:26.880 in a improperly installed car seat. But your kid is almost certainly not going to be kidnapped,

00:46:34.660 especially by a stranger. Most of the kidnappings that you hear about, and it's still very rare,

00:46:39.500 but most of the kidnappings that you hear about are, are, you know, custody disputes and that sort

00:46:44.520 of thing. It's parents kidnapping their own kids in a custody dispute. If we're talking about

00:46:50.360 kidnapping by a stranger, like a kid that's, uh, abducted off the street in a van or, or someone

00:46:57.980 breaks into a house and steals a kid out of the window, those sorts of things have happened, but the

00:47:03.500 chances of it happening to your kid are vanishingly small. It almost definitely won't happen.

00:47:09.740 Yet as parents, a lot of us were more worried about that. You know, uh, I can be guilty of this

00:47:19.680 before I go to bed tonight. I check every single lock in the house. I'm checking the windows,

00:47:23.680 um, on the fear in the back of my mind that someone's going to sneak in the house in the

00:47:27.660 middle of the night and steal one of my kids. Meanwhile, now I, I am, I am pretty, I think I

00:47:33.900 am pretty good about the car seat too, but, uh, but still I, this is something that it's a threat

00:47:39.020 that takes up space in my mind, even though the chances of that happening. It's like I could

00:47:45.140 leave the door wide open every single night and almost definitely nobody will come in and steal

00:47:50.900 my kid. Yet I still worry about it much more than is reasonable to bad risk assessment. And so I think

00:47:59.680 that we should, uh, try to have an appropriately calibrated risk assessor in our brain so that we

00:48:07.100 understand what things are actually threats to us and we focus more on them and a little bit less on

00:48:13.000 the things that are not really threats or are not likely to be threats. That's my point. Okay.

00:48:19.160 We'll leave it there. Um, as I remind you again about the church of cowards, which is in stores 0.96

00:48:23.020 now. And, uh, I, I, I appreciate all the great feedback I've gotten on this book. It's a book that's

00:48:28.360 very personal to me as any book is when you write it, but this is a book that, uh, put a, I put a lot

00:48:33.560 into it. So I appreciate everyone that's bought it and read it and, uh, giving it some, some thought.

00:48:37.640 And so I hope that you'll, you'll, you'll give it a read as well. Uh, go to Amazon right now and

00:48:41.560 pick it up and we'll leave it there. Thanks a lot for watching the show, everybody. Godspeed.
