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

00:03:26.180
off the best meat in America, plus free shipping. That's fairwaymeatmarket.com. Promo code 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
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,
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
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
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
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
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,
00:08:17.080
a shot year abortion, they're trying to convince themselves. They're not convincing you. They're
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
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
00:09:02.380
abortion can never be happy or satisfied in her life. Again, I'm not saying that I'm saying
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
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
00:10:46.280
any women. The power that we have over our bodies to push back and use that power and
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
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
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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
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,
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
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
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
00:25:34.820
supporters. I know. Why are you all unwilling to vote for a woman? No, we're just unwilling to vote
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
00:26:21.100
that particular woman you've put in front of us as voters, by the way, watch how quickly all of
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,
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
00:29:32.880
them by saying, quote, real men should kick a drag queen, quote, out on his ass and call the police.
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
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
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
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
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.
00:34:37.540
Women who prefer to develop deep emotional connections, women who would rather talk,
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.
00:34:56.240
To one extent, every woman is on the demisexual spectrum. Let's put it that way.
00:35:00.100
You know, there may be varying degrees, but every woman is in that range.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
00:37:34.740
It's not a, everybody likes blonde women. Come back. And then they disappear over the horizon
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
00:38:57.280
simply putting a sign that says restroom, but I'm not sure how to present this without having the woke
00:39:02.160
crowd jump on me. I cannot wait till you assume your true mantle as ruler of this insane world.
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,
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
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
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
00:40:51.360
pandering, but it doesn't really matter anyway. Okay, let's move on. This is from Noah says,
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
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.

Hey everyone. It's Andrew Klavan, host of the Andrew Klavan show. You know, Chuck Schumer didn't

decide on abortion the way he wants. We'll take a look at that and why he and the left decide to go
