Today on The Matt Wall Show, Joe Biden will start funding organizations that perform abortions
00:00:04.420
around the world, and he does this while claiming to be a Catholic, a devout Catholic, no less.
00:00:09.120
Also, five headlines including a lawsuit claiming that Twitter, while banning conservatives for
00:00:13.400
their harmful content, supposedly, failed to delete accounts that publish child pornography.
00:00:18.780
Plus, the White House offers the lamest excuse possible for Biden's failures to
00:00:23.280
follow his own mask mandates. All of that and much more today on The Matt Wall Show.
00:00:30.000
You know, one of the best win-wins that we can give ourselves right now, especially right
00:00:40.880
now in the culture, is to support businesses that support us, to support businesses that
00:00:46.380
have the same value system as us, rather than always giving our money to businesses that
00:00:51.280
oppose us, businesses that really hate us, even though we're their customers. And that's
00:00:56.620
why Charity Mobile is such a great opportunity. It's such a win-win opportunity for everybody
00:01:00.140
involved. The Pro-Life phone company is Charity Mobile because they give 5% of your monthly
00:01:04.580
plan price right to the Pro-Life, Pro-Family charity of your choice. It's up to you what
00:01:09.320
charity you want to give to. But it's going to be Pro-Life and Pro-Family. A lot of other
00:01:12.980
perks come with Charity Mobile, including new activations and eligible accounts, which get
00:01:16.560
a free cell phone with free activation and free shipping. And there's no contract, there's
00:01:20.200
no termination fees, there's no risk with a 30-day guarantee. So you might as well try it
00:01:24.180
out, see if you like the service. You got nothing to lose, and I think you will like
00:01:28.200
the service. Plus, you got live customer service based right in the USA. So everything about
00:01:32.360
this company is great. And all the while, you're helping to build a culture of life
00:01:36.120
in America while supporting a Pro-Life phone company. You can turn everyday living into
00:01:40.740
effortless giving, giving right to the charity of your choice. And also, by the way, Nationwide
00:01:45.860
Service on America's largest and most reliable 4G LTE network. I have Charity Mobile.
00:01:51.140
It's what I've been using for months now. And I'll tell you another great thing with
00:01:55.360
my Charity Mobile service is that I've, I mean this sincerely, I've never had a call
00:01:59.260
dropout since I started. How long I've been with Charity Mobile? Several months now. I've
00:02:03.580
never had a call dropout on me. I can't guarantee that's going to be the case for everybody, but
00:02:07.280
that has been my experience. I can tell you that. You can call them at 1-877-474-3662 or
00:02:14.220
chat with them online at charitymobile.com. It's expected that at some point today or in the
00:02:19.660
coming days, Joe Biden will revoke the Mexico City policy, which blocks any tax dollars from
00:02:26.140
going into the pockets of organizations around the world that promote or perform abortions.
00:02:30.600
Dr. Fauci made the announcement while speaking to the World Health Organization on Thursday,
00:02:35.340
promising that Biden would abolish the policy and start funding abortions internationally once
00:02:40.720
again. Here's Fauci's exact words. He says, it'll be our policy to support women's and girls'
00:02:46.300
sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights in the United States as well as globally.
00:02:50.580
To that end, President Biden will be revoking the Mexico City policy in the coming days as part of
00:02:55.960
his broader commitment to protect women's health and advance gender equality at home and around the
00:03:00.700
world. Now, I'm sorry, but I can't read a statement like that without clarifying and reiterating that
00:03:06.940
reproductive health is an incredibly misleading euphemism for abortion. It's really a misnomer.
00:03:12.880
However, abortion has nothing to do with reproductive health or reproductive rights.
00:03:16.800
Indeed, it has nothing to do with reproduction at all. Abortion happens after reproduction has already
00:03:21.460
occurred. By preventing the birth of the child by killing it, you are not preventing the reproduction
00:03:28.320
from happening. So you notice when a woman is giving birth, the doctor does not say, look, she's
00:03:33.640
reproducing. There are hopefully no doctors in the vicinity watching during the actual reproductive act.
00:03:39.480
The birthing act, though, is when the already produced child moves from the mother's womb out
00:03:45.280
into the great wide world. Fauci, of course, understands this, but he uses these kinds of
00:03:49.660
phrases because he is a dishonest man. Speaking of being dishonest, yesterday, the new White House
00:03:54.820
press secretary was asked about this and asked whether Biden would reverse this Mexico City policy.
00:04:01.340
And she responded with the most transparent political deflection in the history of political
00:04:06.260
deflections. We played this clip yesterday during the headlines segment, but let's let's play it
00:04:12.060
Yeah. Hi. Congratulations on your new position. Owen Jensen with EWTN Global Catholic Network.
00:04:18.280
Two big concerns for pro-life Americans. The Hyde Amendment, which, of course, keeps taxpayer
00:04:25.980
dollars, as you know, from paying for abortions, Medicaid abortions, and the Mexico City policy,
00:04:31.060
which under the previous administration, they expanded to keep tax dollars from overseas paying
00:04:35.800
for abortions. So what are president what is President Biden planning on doing on those two
00:04:40.100
items right now? Well, I think we'll have more to say on the Mexico City policy in the coming days.
00:04:47.420
But I will just take the opportunity to remind all of you that he is a devout Catholic and somebody who
00:04:54.160
attends church regularly. He started his day attending church with his family this morning.
00:05:00.100
But I don't have anything more. Don't have anything more for that. All I have is this irrelevant note.
00:05:06.000
That's all I got. As I also explained yesterday, no, Joe Biden is not a devout Catholic. He's not any
00:05:11.940
kind of Catholic. He's not even a bad Catholic. He's a Catholic. He's a Catholic only in the same
00:05:16.300
sense that I'm a humpback whale, which is to say I'm not a humpback whale. Words have meaning as much
00:05:22.800
as the left might wish it were otherwise. The word Catholic has meaning. Part of what it means to be a
00:05:27.440
Catholic is to accept and assent to the moral authority of the church. If you don't believe the
00:05:31.380
church has moral authority, then there's no reason to be Catholic and there is no sense in which you
00:05:36.200
are a Catholic. If you think that the church in its official teachings gets it wrong sometimes and
00:05:42.560
right sometimes, then you have the exact attitude towards the church that every non-Catholic has
00:05:49.200
because you are a non-Catholic no matter what else you say. So I can say that there are probably some
00:05:55.920
things from my perspective that Jehovah's Witnesses believe that I also believe. There are
00:06:01.180
some things that maybe they get right. Not many things in my opinion, but some. They don't celebrate
00:06:06.740
birthdays, for example, and I also don't like birthdays. So I think they're on the right path
00:06:10.520
with that one. But I can also say that I don't accept the fundamental teachings of the Jehovah's
00:06:15.780
Witness church. If I did accept it, then I'd be a Jehovah's Witness. The very thing that makes me
00:06:21.920
not a Jehovah's Witness is that I don't accept it. And this is the very thing that makes Joe Biden
00:06:27.580
not a Catholic. And by the way, this is something I would be saying even if I myself was not a
00:06:32.840
Catholic. Nothing I'm saying here has anything to do with my being a Catholic. This is merely about
00:06:37.080
the definitions of things. And I know by definition you cannot in any meaningful sense be a member of
00:06:43.720
a religion, much less a devout member, if you don't share the core beliefs of that religion on that
00:06:49.620
score. I think this is important to note. What does the church say about the subject of abortion?
00:06:55.720
Well, there's a lot to say, actually, through the centuries. Let's check the catechism. Always a good
00:07:00.360
thing to consult for these questions. And I quote, this is what the Catholic church says. Human life
00:07:04.840
must be respected. And remember, this is what the religion that Joe Biden claims devout adherence to
00:07:10.260
says. Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception.
00:07:16.480
From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of
00:07:21.260
a person, among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life. Since the first
00:07:27.420
century, the church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not
00:07:32.460
changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion, that is to say an abortion willed either as an ends or
00:07:38.320
a means, is gravely contrary to the moral law. Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave
00:07:44.660
offense. The church attaches the canonical penalty of excommunication to this crime against human
00:07:49.920
life. A person who procures a completed abortion incurs excommunication by the very commission of
00:07:54.860
the offense and subject to the conditions provided by canon law. The church does not thereby intend to
00:08:00.360
restrict the scope of mercy. Rather, she makes clear the gravity of the crime committed, the
00:08:05.180
irreparable harm done to the innocent who is put to death, as well as to the parents of the whole of
00:08:09.120
society. The inalienable right to life of every innocent human individual is a constitutive element
00:08:15.020
of a civil society and its legislation. Okay, I'm biased, but I think that's pretty good. That's good
00:08:22.640
stuff. This is the moral teaching of the church. You are absolutely free to disregard it, laugh in its
00:08:29.660
face, say that's a bunch of malarkey. Come on, man. You're free to do that. You're not free to do
00:08:35.980
that while still claiming to be a Catholic, just as I am not free to get married while still remaining
00:08:41.260
a bachelor. Have to choose one or the other. This is not a matter of legal compulsion, but of logical
00:08:47.900
conclusion. You cannot be in a religion that you fundamentally reject. You cannot support the
00:08:54.200
legalization and funding of abortion here and across the globe while also accepting the truth of
00:08:58.540
everything I just read from the catechism. Choices must be made. Joe Biden has made his choice. He has long
00:09:03.820
sense made it, and his choice puts him outside, far outside, the religion he claims membership in and
00:09:09.200
devotion to. Does that mean that Joe Biden has no religion? No, it doesn't mean that. This is the other
00:09:15.180
important thing to understand. He, in fact, belongs to the largest and fastest growing religion in the
00:09:21.000
West, that being the religion of self. That is Joe Biden's religion. And the great thing about being in the
00:09:28.020
religion of self, where you worship and idolize your own ambitions and desires, is that you don't have to do
00:09:32.440
the work of building the religion from scratch. You can dip into other established religions, borrow
00:09:37.640
the bits you prefer, the bits you like. Joe Biden likes going to church, which is nice. Good for him.
00:09:42.500
So that becomes part of his religious practice. Not his Catholic religious practice, because he isn't a
00:09:48.280
Catholic, but part of his devotion to self. He does it because he likes it. So it's about him. He doesn't
00:09:54.140
like the stuff about abortion. He doesn't like the stuff about marriage and family. He doesn't like the
00:09:56.940
stuff about man and woman he created them. Doesn't like that either. Doesn't like any of that,
00:10:01.040
so he discards it. Keeps only the parts he likes. Gets rid of everything else. The one overriding
00:10:08.100
theme, the litmus test, which determines which doctrines will be adhered to and which will be
00:10:12.920
tossed aside, is how those doctrines serve him and make him feel and how convenient they are for him.
00:10:20.900
Seems like kind of a sweet deal. You know, members of traditional religions may look at these self-worshippers,
00:10:28.080
self-idolizers, and think, man, must be nice to put together your own version. I mean, you know, there's
00:10:33.100
some stuff I wish I could toss aside. It'd be a lot easier. Make my life a lot easier. Get rid of the hard parts.
00:10:38.040
Assemble your own religion like you're playing with a box of Legos. Seems nice, but rest assured that the
00:10:43.760
religion of self is not so fun as it looks. It is, at its core, as empty as the people who belong to
00:10:48.840
it. It leads only to more emptiness and ultimately despair and failure. Except for a very, very select
00:10:58.220
few who may ride it all the way to the White House, enjoying for a fleeting moment the power
00:11:04.060
that they've been grasping for their entire lives. Which honestly, in the end, still seems pretty empty
00:11:10.840
to me. Now let's get to our five headlines. All right. You know, I got to say, I hate to keep
00:11:22.680
complaining about the food in the break room here at Daily Wire, because the truth is, actually,
00:11:28.000
there's a lot of great food, and I'm surprised by how much they feed us here. I wasn't expecting that.
00:11:33.440
They're just constantly giving us food, and all I do is eat all day. Really. I've gained like 70 pounds
00:11:38.300
since I started working in the office, but I was walking through this morning, and I saw a tray out
00:11:43.480
of little bags, and it was premium roasted seaweed. Like, in the form of almost a granola bar.
00:11:56.960
Premium roasted seaweed. I don't know who the maniac is here who eats that stuff.
00:12:02.400
I want to report them to HR. And this is one of the things I see that reminds me sometimes that
00:12:08.500
many of the people that I work with are from LA, you know, because that's where the company came from.
00:12:15.560
And so that's, I see stuff like that, and I'm like, okay, yeah, this must be an LA thing.
00:12:18.920
Or I open the fridge, and it's nothing but fake milk, oat milk, coconut milk, almond milk. None of that
00:12:24.860
is real milk, by the way, in any sense whatsoever. Reminds me of that. On the other hand, I'm, you know,
00:12:30.180
I moved here from rural Pennsylvania, and I lived in a town, quite literally, a one-stop sign. We
00:12:35.500
didn't have a stoplight. We had a stop sign. It wasn't even a four-way stop. It was a three-way
00:12:38.120
stop. We had one stop sign. We had a post office, a bar, and we had a gas station convenience store.
00:12:44.560
That's all we had. And I just think if I were to have walked into that gas station convenience
00:12:48.260
store in rural Pennsylvania and asked if they had premium roasted seaweed,
00:12:53.460
they might have pulled a gun on me. Get out of here. We don't take kindly to you,
00:12:59.380
seaweed chompers around here. Maybe that's what they would have said. I don't know.
00:13:04.460
All right, let's get to number one from the New York Post. This is, if you're looking to be
00:13:10.800
totally horrified, well, then you've come to the right place. Here it is. Twitter refused to take
00:13:15.960
down widely shared pornographic images and videos of a teenage sex trafficking victim because an
00:13:21.900
investigation didn't find a violation of the company's policies. This is all according to a lawsuit.
00:13:27.360
The federal suit filed Wednesday by the victim and his mother in the Northern District of California
00:13:31.640
alleges Twitter made money off the clips which showed a 13-year-old engaged in sex acts and
00:13:36.680
are a form of child sexual abuse material or child porn, the suit states. The teen, who's now 17 and
00:13:42.800
lives in Florida, is identified only as John Doe and was between 13 and 14 years old when sex
00:13:47.360
traffickers posing as a 16-year-old female classmate started chatting with him on Snapchat,
00:13:52.200
according to the suit. This is all according to the lawsuit, so I don't have to keep saying that.
00:13:55.520
Um, Doe and the traffickers allegedly exchanged nude photos before the conversation turned to
00:14:01.100
blackmail. If the teen didn't share more sexually graphic photos and videos, the explicit material
00:14:05.940
he'd already sent would be shared with his parents, coach, pastor, and others. Doe, acting under duress,
00:14:11.360
initially complied and sent videos of himself performing sex acts and was also told to include
00:14:15.900
another child in his videos, which he did. Eventually, Doe blocked the traffickers. They stopped
00:14:20.400
harassing him, but at some point in 2019, the video surfaced on Twitter under two accounts that were known to
00:14:25.120
share child sexual abuse material. Over the next month, the videos will be reported to Twitter at
00:14:30.200
least three times, but the tech giant failed to do anything about it until a federal law enforcement
00:14:35.340
agent, uh, got involved. And, uh, I'm not going to keep reading this entire thing. It's a long report
00:14:39.820
worth reading though, but to, uh, to summarize finally. So this is child porn being put on, um,
00:14:49.740
this is a sex trafficking victim, which by the way, you know, you almost don't need to say both of
00:14:55.080
those because if it's child porn, this is a sex trafficking victim by definition. This is a person
00:14:58.840
who's being abused by definition. And so this stuff is on Twitter. Um, and it's allowed to be there.
00:15:05.440
And according to the lawsuit, they report it multiple times and were originally told that it
00:15:12.580
doesn't violate the terms of service until finally federal agents got involved and then they took it
00:15:19.140
down. So you just, you, you keep that in mind when you hear about Twitter, uh, taking down,
00:15:28.960
kicking Donald Trump off the platform because of his harmful, abusive material inciting and all that
00:15:35.220
kind of stuff. All these conservatives were kicked off. The New York post was shut down for months
00:15:40.620
because of its harmful material, misleading material. Yet this is allowed to remain.
00:15:49.140
And part of that is now part of it is obviously ideological and it's the, it's the bias against
00:15:55.000
conservatives and all that stuff. So we know about that. But, uh, the other part of it is,
00:15:58.740
is that there are just a lot of people, many of them running these big tech giants
00:16:04.940
who don't see abusive pornography as obscene because these are talk about empty,
00:16:13.640
amoral soulless people. Well, that's who they are. So when, when they think about harmful material
00:16:20.040
online, what they mean and what, and what comes to mind for them are ideas that they don't agree
00:16:28.360
with and they don't want other people to be exposed to. So for them, that, that is what obscenity is.
00:16:33.820
It's an idea they don't like, but child pornography, any kind of pornography. No, that's, that's not
00:16:41.940
obscene. That's what a free speech, I guess they would tell us. Number two, Joe Biden was asked about
00:16:49.960
his vaccine, um, rollout plan. And here's how that, I think we're going to get a lot of exchanges like
00:17:00.940
You said you had to go with a hundred million vaccines.
00:17:05.280
Is that far higher? That's basically where the U.S. is right now.
00:17:08.680
When I announced it, you all said it's not possible. Come on, give me a break, man.
00:17:26.080
So he, he was asked about this plan to give a hundred million vaccines and the report was,
00:17:30.180
well, maybe we should be getting more than that.
00:17:32.800
And Joe Biden's answer is, come on, man, give me a break.
00:17:46.560
consistently claimed that Biden is starting from scratch.
00:17:50.660
He's talking about the, the vaccine rollout plan.
00:17:53.420
Well, the, the claim that we've heard from, from the media many times over the last couple
00:17:56.300
of days, and this exact phrase, they're starting from scratch because Trump hadn't done anything.
00:18:01.940
Even though he had Operation Warp Drive and they were,
00:18:05.020
it certainly seemed like there's plenty being done, but the media said, no, no, nothing was
00:18:11.960
Well, Dr. Fauci was asked about this at a press conference.
00:18:14.760
And here's what he said, just ask you about the effort to distribute the vaccines, because
00:18:20.280
of course, that's what makes people want to know.
00:18:25.500
Is the Biden administration starting from scratch with the vaccine distribution effort?
00:18:31.020
Or are you picking up where the Trump administration left off?
00:18:34.340
No, I mean, um, we certainly are not starting from scratch because there is activity going
00:18:41.660
But if you look at the plan that the president has put forth about the things that he is going
00:18:47.820
to do, namely get community vaccine centers up, get pharmacies more involved, where appropriate,
00:18:54.480
get the Defense Production Act involved, not only perhaps with getting more vaccine, but
00:19:00.240
even the things you need to get a good vaccine program, for example, needles and syringes
00:19:09.320
By the way, it's Operation Warp Speed, I'm informed, not Warp Drive.
00:19:12.280
Warp Drive, that's, that's, that's, that's a little different.
00:19:17.560
Anyway, um, so not starting, not starting from scratch.
00:19:20.100
There, there was obviously already something in place.
00:19:21.720
But, so Fauci said that, but he also said something else, which is, uh, he was, he was
00:19:28.020
on CNN, I think a little bit later that day, I remember it was earlier today, same day,
00:19:31.420
um, when he agreed that the, uh, according to him, the, the supposedly the dishonesty from
00:19:45.060
So, the White House released its new coronavirus strategy yesterday, and they came out with
00:19:49.700
this 21-page summary of it, and the number one thing, the number one goal of the new
00:19:56.220
Biden-White House in terms of battling the pandemic is to restore trust with the American
00:20:08.400
Well, I think that that was really good, making that number one, because what we've had,
00:20:13.200
it, John, there's no secret, we've had a lot of divisiveness, we've had facts that were
00:20:18.300
very, very clear, that were questioned, people were not trusting, what health officials were
00:20:23.480
saying, there was great divisiveness, masking became a political issue.
00:20:27.880
So, what the president was saying right from the get-go, you know, let's reset this, let's
00:20:32.720
everybody get on the, on the, on the same page, trust each other, let the science speak.
00:20:40.300
Did the lack of candor, did the lack of facts in some cases over the last year cost lives?
00:20:50.440
You know, I don't want that, John, to be a soundbite, but I think if you just look at
00:20:54.020
that, you could see that when you're starting to go down paths that are not based on any
00:20:59.400
science at all, and we've been there before, I don't want to rehash it, that is not helpful
00:21:05.320
Well, I don't want it to be a soundbite, but here's a soundbite, I don't want to give
00:21:11.640
Of course, that's a soundbite, and he damn well knows it.
00:21:21.320
Who, who was among the people early on saying, you don't need to wear a mask?
00:21:25.800
All of our sacred public health experts and officials, not just, um, not just Donald Trump
00:21:38.660
And now they say, uh, if you don't wear a mask, you know, you're killing people.
00:21:42.820
Now I, I, my personal opinion is that they were more right the first time, but according
00:21:51.560
to what they're saying now, if you believe what they're saying now, then that means that
00:21:56.840
people like Fauci and any other public health experts that don't wear a mask early on, they're
00:22:01.520
responsible for killing people according to what they're saying now.
00:22:04.080
But of course there's, there's no accountability for that whatsoever.
00:22:11.240
Moving on number three, um, speaking of a lack of accountability.
00:22:15.720
So we played the clip for yesterday, Joe Biden, uh, you know, he passes this, not even passes
00:22:20.940
is not the word he enacts an executive order requiring that masks be worn, uh, during interstate
00:22:27.720
And if you're on in, in federal property, you got to wear a mask.
00:22:30.660
Uh, well then right, right after signing that executive order, he goes and he's on federal
00:22:35.980
properties at the Lincoln Memorial and he's not wearing a mask.
00:22:40.020
And at the, uh, white house press conference, that question was brought up and here's how
00:22:46.260
Why weren't president Biden and all members of the Biden family masks at all times on federal
00:22:51.980
lands last night, if he signed an executive order that mandates masks on federal lands at
00:22:58.220
At the inaugural memorial, yes, I think he was celebrating, uh, an evening, uh, of a historic
00:23:09.480
And certainly he signed the mask mandate because it's a way to send a message to the American
00:23:14.320
public about the importance of, uh, wearing masks, how it can save tens of thousands of
00:23:20.180
As we take a number of COVID precautions, as you know, here, in terms of testing, social
00:23:25.180
distancing, mask wearing ourselves as, as we do every single day, but I don't know that
00:23:41.040
Um, the answer is, well, the real answer is we have, we have different rules for us and
00:23:46.520
you peons have to do things differently than we do.
00:23:49.100
You know, we're more important than you and we can do what we want.
00:23:51.560
Also, we don't really believe most of the stuff we're telling you.
00:23:54.060
And so that's why we, we, we carry on and we're around other people, not wearing a mask.
00:23:59.020
And, you know, we, we, as people in power, we, we really haven't changed our lifestyle
00:24:03.340
at all, except when the cameras are on because we don't believe a lot of what we're telling
00:24:10.640
But there is a version of the answer that's reasonable.
00:24:15.500
If you want to say, well, look, it's a judgment call.
00:24:17.980
He's, he's, you know, this, he's at this celebration.
00:24:20.420
There's not, there's not a bunch of people right on top of him.
00:24:25.960
So he took the mask off and that part that I would be fine with if everybody else was
00:24:36.580
The problem is they're not because this is the point that many people in America have
00:24:44.660
I think a lot of people in America, if I were to summarize their position on masks, I don't
00:24:48.420
want to speak for everybody, but I think there's probably a lot, a lot of people I've spoken
00:24:51.140
to anyway, who their position on masks is basically like, I understand in certain situations,
00:24:56.400
I wear the mask, but in other situations, it seems unreasonable to wear it.
00:24:59.500
And it's, it's, especially if I'm, I'm, you know, I'm trying to be, if I want to be
00:25:03.940
understood, I'm trying to speak to somebody and they're not right on top of me, maybe
00:25:08.300
I think that's a lot of, that's the position a lot of people have.
00:25:10.640
If I'm in my own home, I'm having a celebration.
00:25:22.900
The problem is that the powers that be, they allow themselves that grace and for them, they
00:25:28.080
can make those judgment calls, but they don't trust us to make those judgment calls.
00:25:35.520
They just simply don't trust you or me to make judgment calls.
00:25:45.500
That's why they first said, oh, don't wear the masks.
00:25:48.840
And, and, and they later told us the reason was, well, we don't want all you morons to run
00:25:54.740
And then there wouldn't be any left for healthcare workers.
00:26:02.360
Okay, so you lied because you were trying to manipulate us because you don't trust our
00:26:09.760
judgment because you think we're a bunch of idiots and that's how you're governing.
00:26:14.060
And it seems that that is continuing here, continuing in that vein.
00:26:18.320
Number four from IGN, it says Microsoft has filed a patent that would allow the company
00:26:23.840
to digitally revive deceased loved ones as chat bots using the individual's personal information.
00:26:30.300
The independent reports that the tech giant has raised the possibility of creating an AI
00:26:33.720
based chat bot that would be built upon the profile of a person, which includes their
00:26:38.000
images, voice data, social media posts, electronic messages, among other types of personal information.
00:26:43.340
It's understood that the chat bot would then be able to, to simulate human conversation
00:26:50.920
However, Microsoft has taken the concept a step further by suggesting that a 2D or 3D model
00:26:56.440
of a specific person could potentially be created using images and depth, uh, depth information,
00:27:01.720
depth information, or video data of an individual in order to build a chat bot that has the same
00:27:06.520
characteristics and behavior based on the digital output of a specific person.
00:27:13.220
Well, this is good thing is this is not creepy at all.
00:27:18.900
This to me is, this is no different really than putting your loved one's ashes into an urn and then
00:27:26.640
drawing a face on it like, like it's Tom Hanks's volleyball in Castaway and setting it down to the
00:27:33.320
dinner table and having a full-on conversation with it.
00:27:35.380
It's really no different because it's just your imagination.
00:27:44.160
Can we, can we not, this is all I'm asking modern society.
00:28:00.160
Resurrecting our dead loved ones and turning them into chat bots.
00:28:09.900
Finally, the account called a design boom on Twitter has pictures of a proposed, um, proposed
00:28:18.680
And the caption reads, uh, Harry Atak proposes the striking sinuous Sarko style tower for the
00:28:30.220
Uh, and if you're, you can go and see these pictures.
00:28:33.600
I have never, I've truly never seen a building.
00:28:37.160
Um, you really, you really have to look at this building.
00:28:40.280
They really want to put this building in New York, in the skyline.
00:28:43.820
I have never seen a building that so seamlessly manages to be disturbing, hideous, and hilarious
00:28:51.020
It's, it's kind of funny, but it's also ugly as hell and terrifying.
00:28:58.580
It's like something Satan would have at his kid's birthday party.
00:29:03.020
Um, or maybe it's a, it's a, it looks a little bit like a building that Dr. Seuss might design
00:29:12.160
It really does look like something from a different dimension and not in a good way.
00:29:16.460
But in another sense, it's unremarkable because it's, it's just more modern architecture that
00:29:29.000
Um, before we get to our daily cancellation, I do have to, I almost forgot to play this.
00:29:34.340
The best clip of the day of indeed the year, the year is young, but this certainly I think
00:29:50.720
And when that trial ends, senators will have to decide if they believe Donald John, Donald
00:29:56.900
John Trump incited the erection, insurrection against the United States.
00:30:12.680
As a country, you don't want to be facing that certainly.
00:30:18.260
Uh, at least like, I mean, now we, we know why Chuck Schumer has been so obsessed with
00:30:24.620
He couldn't do anything but talk about Donald Trump.
00:30:26.040
Um, he's, has been upset at Donald Trump for inciting his erections all, all this time.
00:30:37.040
That's it's, we're starting to understand the psychology a little bit behind Chuck Schumer.
00:30:41.900
Understanding it more than I ever wanted to, to be honest with you.
00:30:44.160
One thing about being an adult and owning a house is that, you know, you need to, you need to class
00:30:51.240
things up a little bit and that's when you need real artwork on your walls.
00:30:54.340
That's how you separate the adults from the, from the, from the posers is do you have artwork
00:30:59.740
And, uh, if you're looking to, to do that in your home, you got to try paint your life.

That's, uh, our new movie we're very excited about.
00:32:46.080
Everyone's excited about it, except maybe some of the mainstream media critics who, um,
00:32:52.140
Although our tomato meter score over at Rotten Tomatoes has gone up a little bit for the
00:32:59.200
What's more exciting is that the audience score is 93%.
00:33:01.920
Here's what one of the critics has to say at Variety, Guy Lodge.
00:33:07.340
The film tastelessly needles its viewers throughout, presenting the brawniest, most impossible
00:33:15.620
Meanwhile, here's a review from just a normal audience member.
00:33:20.320
They say, they say the, the suspense of watching your worst fears as a student come to life on
00:33:24.500
your screen and watch it be conquered gives everyone a sense of personal hope and power,
00:33:30.220
That's what, that's the kind of stuff we've been hearing from the audience.

00:33:48.400
Today for our daily cancellation, we're going to be canceling some of the people, some of you
00:33:52.320
in the audience, I'm afraid, who have sent messages, emails, left comments in response
00:33:56.040
to the show over the last couple of days, as I had been arguing, that the best thing
00:34:01.580
conservatives can do to win back the culture is to localize their focus and set out to make
00:34:05.360
the sort of profound and meaningful changes in their own lives and communities that they
00:34:10.580
There's a lot, there's, there's a lot going on in Washington that we cannot do anything
00:34:14.960
So, um, even if we try, there's a lot going on in our families, in our communities that
00:34:24.100
As I said, as many have said, the condition of the family determines the condition of the
00:34:28.280
So to simplify my plan, it can be put like this in the simplest form, have a bunch of
00:34:32.600
kids and homeschool them to expand it a little bit.
00:34:36.120
I suggest that we buy land, buy guns, buy books, turn the TV off.
00:34:42.560
It was actually already proposed by the singer, John Prine, uh, may he rest in peace and his
00:34:46.580
song, Spanish pipe dream, which is a great song.
00:34:50.680
He says, blow up your TV, throw away your paper, go to the country, build you a home,
00:34:54.320
plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches, try and find Jesus on your own.
00:34:58.640
This indeed is the way take or leave the peaches, but the rest of it, yes, is the best path forward.
00:35:03.620
But I have heard from a number of people, well-meaning, fine people, I'm sure, though they're
00:35:08.140
still all canceled who take issue with this plan.
00:35:13.200
It is a waving of the white flag to pull your kids out of the school system, to get them
00:35:16.840
away from the cities, to extract them even a little bit from the, from the pull of, of,
00:35:24.420
They say we need to, we need to remain immersed in these environments.
00:35:27.380
Our kids have to remain immersed so that we can really fight and achieve ultimate victory.
00:35:32.400
The common refrain I've heard many, many times over the years when I've advocated for homeschooling
00:35:36.360
is that conservative parents should send their kids to public school so that the kids can be
00:35:40.720
a light to others, a light in the darkness, and also so that they can be equipped to live in our
00:35:46.820
society and withstand the trials and temptations that come with it, et cetera.
00:35:52.440
Now, I think this attitude is completely wrong, and I'll explain why.
00:35:58.100
Children do not learn to stand apart from the culture or to be individuals by being totally
00:36:10.640
They don't learn how to be lights, how to be warriors for truth as we want them to be
00:36:13.820
by attending public school all through their formative years.
00:36:16.420
I know it doesn't work that way because I have eyes and I can look around and I can see
00:36:21.000
that it doesn't work that way and hasn't worked that way.
00:36:24.920
On the contrary, total immersion in the culture, especially with respect to public school, has
00:36:33.520
Most kids don't learn to be brave and bold and savvy by spending all their time in this
00:36:38.680
Instead, they learn to be just like everyone else.
00:36:42.200
There are exceptions to this rule, and you could say, oh, my kids are the exception.
00:36:46.920
You probably think they are, but they actually aren't.
00:36:50.020
The thing is, though, that exceptions are just that.
00:36:53.080
The general rule is that public school produces the kinds of kids that the system is designed
00:36:58.700
And part of that design in public school is that the primary influence over your child,
00:37:05.160
the people who will be most prominently teaching your child and setting the example are not
00:37:12.860
This is who he's going to spend most of his time with.
00:37:18.180
Kids, in fact, he will learn to live for their approval.
00:37:26.920
They are desperate for the approval of their peers.
00:37:30.680
So desperate, in fact, that if they don't get it, or if they get it and then the approval
00:37:40.440
This is something that was unheard of to have 12-year-old kids committing suicide, unheard
00:37:53.660
And it's almost like we take it for granted instead of asking, how the hell is this happening?
00:37:58.980
Well, it's because kids in school are conditioned by each other to act like each other, to want
00:38:11.760
And this is a problem because none of them have any clue about anything.
00:38:15.460
They're all running in circles, following each other, the blind leading the blind, leading
00:38:19.600
the blind, leading the blind, leading the blind.
00:38:21.300
So if our goal is to raise our kids, to fight the good fight, then we have to first train
00:38:26.340
and equip them before we send them out into the battlefield.
00:38:29.240
Conservative parents today, many of them at least, send their children out before they've
00:38:33.540
been fully equipped and trained and expect it all to sort of magically turn out okay.
00:38:41.240
This is why it's necessary to put some distance between the culture and our kids, to give them
00:38:44.920
space to learn and grow and be kids before they're subjected to the constant oppressive
00:38:53.440
It isn't fair to subject them to that pressure before they've been given the tools to handle
00:38:58.840
It's like sending your kid into the woods with a saw and four nails and telling him to build
00:39:05.580
Maybe the smartest and most naturally resourceful kids will figure it out and they'll somehow
00:39:13.800
A whole lot of kids are going to fail who would not have failed had they been given a few
00:39:18.240
more tools and maybe a bit of instruction before being sent into the wilderness.
00:39:24.080
And no, kids do not learn anything, anything good or constructive anyway, from failing at
00:39:29.040
tasks for which there was never any real chance of success in the first place.
00:39:35.060
In other words, we don't teach our kids good lessons by setting them up for failure.
00:39:40.640
Now, you set your kid up for success and he has all the tools and he has all the instruction
00:39:47.920
he needs and you send him out and he fails in that case.
00:39:51.160
Well, then, yeah, there are lessons to be learned from that.
00:39:54.860
But when he's set up for failure to begin with and he's never given the tools for success
00:40:04.460
If anything, it's a lesson that we should be learning as parents, but we don't.
00:40:07.440
Something else to keep in mind, if you're if you're worried that your kid, you know, might
00:40:11.600
need to go to public school so that they're prepared for the real world, you know, remember
00:40:16.180
that nothing in the real world outside of public school is anything like public school.
00:40:21.100
It is a unique environment that your child will never experience again.
00:40:25.960
I can tell you that living my adult life, I have never encountered a situation ever anywhere
00:40:30.620
that caused me to go, oh, geez, I'm glad public school prepared me for this.
00:40:34.720
In public school, a child is in a building, well, usually in a building, notwithstanding
00:40:39.480
COVID shutdowns, he's in a building segregated by age, shuffled from one room to the next
00:40:45.940
where he sits and listens to an authority figure tell him things before going to the next room
00:40:49.840
and repeating that and then finally going home.
00:40:52.840
I am not aware of any workplace that functions that way or any other place anywhere that functions
00:40:59.200
Your child's experience in public school, if it prepares him for anything, it prepares him
00:41:07.200
Maybe this is why, despite how it's portrayed, public school kids are so poorly socialized,
00:41:12.140
so ill-equipped for adult life because they've spent all of their time in an environment that
00:41:21.440
Now, you could say the same is true of homeschooling, you know, where are you going to go in life
00:41:26.960
Of course, it's not exactly like the real world.
00:41:29.380
We don't have our kids all the way in the, quote, real world yet because they're kids.
00:41:34.980
But it does more resemble what they'll see in the real world when they're in homeschooling.
00:41:41.060
They're, you know, they're around other people that aren't only their own age.
00:41:47.900
You know, one thing it'll prepare them for is to have a family.
00:41:54.440
They're going to be around their parents so much that it'll better prepare them to be parents
00:41:58.380
in the long run, to be adults because they're around and they're getting this one-on-one
00:42:05.260
In fact, when you hear about homeschool kids and how they're weird and all this, you know,
00:42:11.880
But if they are weird, it's only because they're so mature in comparison to their peers.
00:42:18.820
So if there's any trouble with them fitting in, it's because they are more like adults
00:42:29.280
To have your kid be mature in the right way at a young age.
00:42:42.640
And that's why I propose, again, pull the kids out.
00:42:50.020
Although, honestly, if I had a bubble to put my kids in, I'd probably put them in that too.
00:42:57.240
Put a little bit of buffer, a little bit of space between your kids and the world.
00:42:59.880
Give them space to grow, space to breathe, space to figure out who they are, space to
00:43:04.060
learn from you without a million other voices competing and tearing them away from you.
00:43:11.880
And so all the people sending me comments, emails, I appreciate your input.
