The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 702 - The Problem Is Bad Parenting, Not Bad Policing

00:00:00.180 Today on the Matt Wall Show, yet another police shooting sparks outrage and protest.

00:00:04.000 This time, a 13-year-old boy is killed.

00:00:06.020 As always, everyone is blaming the police,

00:00:07.940 but I think we should move the conversation from policing to parenting.

00:00:11.980 That's the real source of the trouble and the thing that nobody seems to want to talk about.

00:00:15.280 Also, five headlines, including the Democrats begin their push for reparations

00:00:18.540 while a bunch of white celebrities come out in support of the idea.

00:00:21.360 And the media baselessly smears Ron DeSantis in the most vile way imaginable.

00:00:25.840 Finally, in our Daily Cancellation, we'll discuss the scientists

00:00:28.020 who've now begun creating half-monkey, half-human hybrid embryos.

00:00:32.980 What could possibly go wrong?

00:00:34.180 Or better yet, what could possibly go right with a plan like that?

00:00:36.720 All of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:00:46.040 So with riots already happening in multiple cities

00:00:48.640 and outrage still exploding over the police killing of Daunte Wright

00:00:51.940 and the country on edge leading up to the verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial,

00:00:55.080 Chicago decided that now, this week, of all times,

00:00:59.000 would be a good time to release the body cam footage

00:01:01.340 of the officer-involved shooting of a 13-year-old suspect.

00:01:04.800 You might almost begin to think that people in positions of power

00:01:09.120 in this country want the riots.

00:01:12.100 In fact, if you're only beginning to think that now,

00:01:14.920 then you're rather slow on the uptake, I would say.

00:01:17.160 The incident happened on March 29th of this year,

00:01:19.720 a little more than two weeks ago.

00:01:20.680 Officers were called to the scene in downtown Chicago at 2.30 a.m.

00:01:25.080 because someone or some group of people

00:01:26.760 were shooting guns in the middle of the city.

00:01:29.420 Police censors picked up nine shots.

00:01:31.780 Then 911 calls started coming in.

00:01:34.060 One caller reported six or seven shots.

00:01:36.100 Another also reported multiple shots.

00:01:38.320 When officers arrived to the area,

00:01:40.180 they immediately began chasing two suspects.

00:01:42.340 The first, a 21-year-old man named Ruben Roman.

00:01:45.700 They were able to quickly catch and subdue.

00:01:47.900 The second suspect was someone that we now know

00:01:50.900 as 13-year-old Adam Toledo.

00:01:53.460 But of course, the police didn't know who he was or his age.

00:01:56.700 All they knew was that people were shooting guns

00:01:58.880 and now here is someone running away.

00:02:01.700 Body cam footage shows police chasing Toledo down an alley

00:02:04.580 where he stops, turns, puts his hands up, and is shot.

00:02:11.040 Officers render aid immediately, but he dies at the scene.

00:02:14.360 This, at least, is the version of the story

00:02:16.880 that the media and the activists want us to take to heart.

00:02:20.000 In fact, CBS released a cropped version of the footage

00:02:22.980 so that this version is all you see,

00:02:26.600 exactly as I just described it.

00:02:28.680 In truth, if you literally widen the frame,

00:02:31.460 you discover that Toledo was holding a gun.

00:02:33.880 A gun that he or the 21-year-old suspect,

00:02:36.640 or both of them, were just moments earlier

00:02:39.520 firing at something or someone.

00:02:42.240 Toledo initially flees while holding the gun.

00:02:44.840 Then as officers scream at him to stop and put his hands up,

00:02:48.340 he halts, turns, gun still in his hand,

00:02:52.660 and subtly tosses the gun behind a fence

00:02:54.960 with his right hand obscured.

00:02:57.560 By the time the officer fires a single shot that kills him,

00:03:00.380 Toledo's hands were empty.

00:03:02.440 But there was literally a fraction of a second

00:03:05.740 in between Toledo holding the gun

00:03:07.620 and the officer firing the shot.

00:03:09.760 From the time that you first see the gun

00:03:12.860 on the body cam footage

00:03:14.040 to the point where the officer fires the shot,

00:03:17.580 eight-tenths of a second elapse.

00:03:20.060 That's it.

00:03:22.240 Toledo did try to surrender,

00:03:24.040 but it was too late,

00:03:25.520 and he purposefully ditched the gun in a way

00:03:28.000 so that the cops wouldn't see him ditching it.

00:03:30.940 From the cop's perspective,

00:03:32.640 this is a suspect just involved in some kind of shooting

00:03:35.900 holding a gun who is now turning and raising his hands.

00:03:40.760 Now, that officer has less than a second,

00:03:42.760 less than a second to make a decision.

00:03:46.220 Is he raising his hands to put his hands up,

00:03:48.700 or is he raising his hand

00:03:49.740 because he's drawing up and he's about to fire?

00:03:53.020 If the officer guesses wrong, he's dead.

00:03:56.540 It is as high as the stakes can get,

00:03:59.280 and he had eight-tenths of a second

00:04:01.500 to decide which way he would go.

00:04:03.820 Now, I don't know about you.

00:04:07.220 I've never confronted an armed person in a back alley.

00:04:09.900 I've never had that experience.

00:04:11.780 I've never confronted any armed person at all,

00:04:14.460 especially not in the dark at 2.30 a.m.

00:04:17.400 I've never had to make a life-or-death decision

00:04:19.980 in eight-tenths of a second.

00:04:22.240 Now, cops, of course, are trained for this.

00:04:24.620 That's true, but they're also human.

00:04:26.620 They aren't superheroes.

00:04:27.580 This isn't a movie.

00:04:28.900 They are tossed into messy, horrible,

00:04:31.620 real-world situations,

00:04:33.220 and they have to make the best judgment call they can

00:04:35.940 in the moment.

00:04:37.760 That's why, so often,

00:04:38.980 the more productive question we could be asking

00:04:41.460 is not, could the cops have handled

00:04:43.360 the horrible situation better,

00:04:44.880 but rather, why was the horrible situation

00:04:47.920 happening to begin with?

00:04:50.560 What could have been done

00:04:51.600 to avoid that situation entirely?

00:04:55.000 See, to me, that's the question.

00:04:56.160 In this case, rather than blaming the cop

00:04:59.420 who had eight-tenths of a second

00:05:00.860 to decide whether he wanted

00:05:02.560 to ever see his family again,

00:05:04.880 perhaps we should ask

00:05:06.100 why a 13-year-old boy

00:05:08.440 was out on the street

00:05:09.420 with a loaded gun

00:05:10.440 at 2.30 a.m.

00:05:13.220 This child had clearly,

00:05:14.620 at some point in the past,

00:05:16.500 gone down a dark path,

00:05:19.240 a path both metaphorically

00:05:21.000 and literally,

00:05:22.500 a path that has led

00:05:23.420 many young boys and young men

00:05:24.960 like Adam Toledo

00:05:25.660 to the morgue eventually,

00:05:27.280 usually not at the hands

00:05:28.180 of the police,

00:05:28.800 but at the hands of other boys

00:05:30.540 and young men in the community

00:05:31.580 most of the time.

00:05:33.580 We know that if Adam Toledo

00:05:35.720 had survived that encounter

00:05:37.120 with the cops

00:05:37.700 and then been shot

00:05:39.880 and killed a week later

00:05:40.920 by some local gangbanger,

00:05:43.000 as happens, you know,

00:05:44.480 hundreds of times a year

00:05:45.800 across the country,

00:05:48.120 the media wouldn't be reporting it.

00:05:50.220 Protesters wouldn't be taking

00:05:51.200 to the streets over it

00:05:52.080 and his name would not be known.

00:05:54.960 You know,

00:05:55.640 the left only cares

00:05:56.880 about the Adam Toledos

00:05:57.920 of the world

00:05:58.420 when they die by cop.

00:06:00.300 That's the only time.

00:06:01.780 If they die literally

00:06:03.020 any other way,

00:06:04.720 any other way,

00:06:05.940 the people pretending

00:06:07.560 to care about him now

00:06:08.580 would shrug their shoulders

00:06:09.480 and go about their day.

00:06:11.940 So the question again is,

00:06:13.840 it's not,

00:06:15.280 why did the cop

00:06:16.080 make the wrong decision

00:06:17.080 in eight-tenths of a second

00:06:18.220 while confronting

00:06:18.840 an unknown perp

00:06:19.720 with a loaded gun

00:06:20.340 in a dark alley

00:06:20.940 in the middle of the night?

00:06:21.560 The question is,

00:06:23.640 why did this encounter

00:06:25.780 ever happen at all?

00:06:28.020 Why was that cop

00:06:29.420 put in that position?

00:06:32.780 Elizabeth Toledo,

00:06:33.900 Adam's mother,

00:06:35.040 has spoken out

00:06:35.960 since the death.

00:06:36.960 She says that her child

00:06:38.560 was a goofy, fun kid

00:06:40.100 with a big imagination.

00:06:41.760 He likes SpongeBob SquarePants

00:06:43.600 and Taco Bell and candy.

00:06:45.880 She says that he wanted

00:06:46.840 to be a police officer

00:06:47.700 when he grows up.

00:06:48.340 Now, that all might be true.

00:06:51.500 But we also know,

00:06:52.560 according to reporting

00:06:53.380 from journalist Andy Ngo,

00:06:54.700 that Adam was known

00:06:55.740 in gang circles

00:06:56.660 as Lil Homicide

00:06:58.140 and Baby Diablo.

00:07:01.080 CBS reports

00:07:01.720 that he went missing

00:07:02.620 two days before the shooting,

00:07:05.260 disappeared out

00:07:05.940 into the street somewhere,

00:07:07.020 and his mother

00:07:08.120 didn't report it.

00:07:09.880 He also had gone missing

00:07:11.060 a few days before that.

00:07:12.520 In that case,

00:07:13.060 it was reported,

00:07:14.160 but then he returned

00:07:14.960 and his mom never told

00:07:15.900 the police that he came home.

00:07:17.160 Then he left again,

00:07:18.340 and she never told them

00:07:19.580 that he was gone.

00:07:22.580 Perhaps not surprisingly,

00:07:23.800 so far,

00:07:24.240 we haven't heard anything

00:07:25.160 one way or another

00:07:25.860 about the boy's father

00:07:26.840 or from the boy's father

00:07:27.760 as far as I know.

00:07:29.980 Now, if you would look

00:07:31.260 at the totality

00:07:31.960 of the circumstances here

00:07:33.040 and come away

00:07:34.800 with the conclusion

00:07:35.500 that the police

00:07:36.840 are the problem,

00:07:38.340 then you're not

00:07:39.240 a serious person

00:07:40.140 or an honest one.

00:07:41.060 You're a fraud

00:07:41.560 and a coward.

00:07:42.620 You're afraid to deal

00:07:43.380 with reality,

00:07:44.380 afraid to tell the truth.

00:07:46.000 You know,

00:07:46.840 though you will not

00:07:47.480 say it out loud,

00:07:48.340 that what caused

00:07:49.340 Adam Toledo's death

00:07:50.300 was not bad policing,

00:07:52.020 but catastrophically

00:07:53.340 bad parenting.

00:07:55.760 The tragedy that led

00:07:57.140 to the final tragedy

00:07:58.280 was parental neglect.

00:08:01.020 Now, as parents,

00:08:01.920 we can't exercise

00:08:02.700 total control

00:08:03.380 over our kids.

00:08:04.580 Okay?

00:08:05.080 They'll make their own choices.

00:08:06.540 Sometimes they're going

00:08:07.160 to make bad ones,

00:08:07.920 sometimes very bad ones.

00:08:09.380 But if your boy

00:08:10.160 is only 13

00:08:11.180 and already

00:08:12.620 he's running around

00:08:13.440 the city

00:08:13.940 at 2.30 a.m.

00:08:14.880 with a loaded gun

00:08:15.660 and his gang friends,

00:08:17.220 one of whom

00:08:17.640 is 21 years old,

00:08:19.100 and they all call him

00:08:20.300 Lil Homicide,

00:08:21.360 something has gone

00:08:22.180 very, very wrong

00:08:23.880 in your home.

00:08:25.900 Our cities are full

00:08:27.000 of boys and young men

00:08:28.020 whose home lives

00:08:28.880 have gone

00:08:29.360 very, very wrong,

00:08:30.800 to put it mildly.

00:08:32.200 7% are living,

00:08:33.300 70% are living

00:08:36.400 in homes

00:08:36.760 without fathers.

00:08:38.040 And that's just

00:08:38.740 the beginning of it.

00:08:39.500 Many of these kids

00:08:41.660 are given

00:08:42.160 no moral formation,

00:08:44.760 no instruction,

00:08:45.980 no guidance.

00:08:47.380 They have no one

00:08:48.980 setting an example

00:08:49.860 for them,

00:08:50.540 no role models,

00:08:51.760 no one to look up to,

00:08:52.920 no one to show them

00:08:53.660 the way,

00:08:54.400 nobody.

00:08:56.100 Like, millions of kids

00:08:57.560 in this situation

00:08:58.320 have nobody

00:09:00.000 looking out for them.

00:09:03.120 Police are the cleanup crew

00:09:04.640 called in to deal

00:09:05.560 with the mess.

00:09:06.340 They're not the ones

00:09:07.060 causing the mess.

00:09:09.500 What's causing the mess

00:09:10.720 is the collapse

00:09:11.480 and abandonment

00:09:12.160 of the nuclear family.

00:09:13.180 And that's happening

00:09:13.780 everywhere in society

00:09:14.840 and it's bad everywhere

00:09:16.640 and you see the fruits

00:09:17.940 of that everywhere

00:09:18.740 but in the cities

00:09:19.480 it has reached

00:09:20.080 apocalyptic levels.

00:09:22.960 In the cities,

00:09:24.320 the nuclear family

00:09:25.300 basically doesn't

00:09:26.540 exist anymore.

00:09:28.660 If you want to know

00:09:29.500 what a post-nuclear family

00:09:31.020 world looks like,

00:09:32.340 look at the inner cities.

00:09:33.660 That's what it looks like.

00:09:36.400 Adam Toledo's death.

00:09:37.900 That's what it looks like.

00:09:40.500 You know,

00:09:41.160 I look at my own son,

00:09:43.020 my oldest,

00:09:43.500 he's almost eight

00:09:44.140 and I think to myself,

00:09:46.180 could he become

00:09:46.980 a gangbanger

00:09:47.680 running around the city

00:09:48.500 with a gun by 13

00:09:49.560 in just seven years?

00:09:51.260 Could he go from

00:09:52.020 where he is right now

00:09:53.040 to that in seven years?

00:09:56.220 Now, the answer for us

00:09:57.160 is no.

00:09:57.940 Me and my wife

00:09:58.600 wouldn't ever allow that

00:09:59.660 but theoretically,

00:10:01.000 would it be possible

00:10:02.580 to turn my innocent

00:10:03.820 sweet little boy

00:10:04.700 into a hardened criminal

00:10:05.820 by the time he reaches

00:10:06.560 middle school?

00:10:08.040 Theoretically.

00:10:08.660 Sure.

00:10:09.780 I mean, the first thing

00:10:10.580 I'd have to do,

00:10:11.120 it's very easy for me actually,

00:10:12.460 all that I would have to do

00:10:13.880 is leave.

00:10:16.400 That might be all it takes.

00:10:17.660 If I personally,

00:10:18.700 as his father,

00:10:19.480 checked out of his life,

00:10:20.480 either physically

00:10:21.100 or mentally or both,

00:10:22.520 that might be enough.

00:10:25.140 But if it isn't,

00:10:26.000 then the next step

00:10:26.600 is to deprive him

00:10:27.420 of all other forms

00:10:28.380 of moral guidance

00:10:29.180 to ensure that

00:10:30.380 all of his role models,

00:10:31.520 especially his male role models,

00:10:32.680 are bad influences,

00:10:34.260 take me out of the picture

00:10:36.240 and replace me

00:10:37.080 with the internet,

00:10:38.120 pop culture,

00:10:38.760 rappers,

00:10:39.240 movies.

00:10:40.600 Next, my wife

00:10:41.320 would have to allow him

00:10:42.120 to get mixed in

00:10:42.980 with a bad crowd,

00:10:43.920 spend all day,

00:10:44.760 next thing you know,

00:10:45.380 all night

00:10:45.800 with these kinds of people.

00:10:47.460 That's his new family.

00:10:48.660 That's where he takes

00:10:49.280 his social cues.

00:10:50.700 That's how he learns

00:10:51.400 to be a man.

00:10:53.120 Let him stew

00:10:53.960 in that environment,

00:10:54.840 an environment of confusion

00:10:55.980 and abandonment

00:10:56.820 and neglect

00:10:57.400 for a couple of years

00:10:59.280 and just like that,

00:11:00.520 my boy could be

00:11:01.600 the one in that

00:11:02.480 body cam footage.

00:11:04.240 Anyone's boy could be.

00:11:06.780 What does that mean?

00:11:08.520 It means that our children

00:11:09.740 can't raise themselves.

00:11:11.180 If the Lord of the Flies

00:11:12.000 has taught us anything,

00:11:12.760 it's that.

00:11:14.220 Our children need us.

00:11:15.580 They need parents,

00:11:17.580 adults,

00:11:18.240 to mold them.

00:11:19.960 Boys especially

00:11:20.800 need men,

00:11:21.700 fathers,

00:11:22.140 to guide them,

00:11:23.640 help them harness

00:11:24.500 their masculine energy

00:11:25.700 in productive

00:11:26.400 and edifying ways.

00:11:29.300 You know,

00:11:29.500 boys are risk takers.

00:11:32.500 Boys are aggressive.

00:11:34.400 That's natural.

00:11:35.760 That's good.

00:11:37.180 It has to be harnessed.

00:11:39.680 I can see that

00:11:40.640 in my sons.

00:11:41.760 They want to take risks.

00:11:43.120 They want to be aggressive.

00:11:45.260 That's why the father

00:11:46.240 steps in and says,

00:11:47.180 okay,

00:11:47.340 you want to take risks?

00:11:48.220 Here are some healthy,

00:11:50.300 controlled risks

00:11:51.260 you can take.

00:11:52.040 Let's go climb a tree.

00:11:53.160 I'll be standing right there.

00:11:56.740 You know,

00:11:57.460 you have a lot of aggression.

00:11:58.740 Let's wrestle around

00:12:00.000 on the floor.

00:12:01.860 Let's play football.

00:12:03.540 Let's go run around outside.

00:12:06.940 That's what boys

00:12:08.580 need fathers for.

00:12:11.200 It would seem

00:12:12.100 that Adam Toledo

00:12:12.760 didn't have that.

00:12:14.620 And that's what

00:12:15.360 signed his death warrant.

00:12:17.440 The cop

00:12:18.400 will live with the guilt.

00:12:20.380 But he's not the one.

00:12:22.380 He's not the one

00:12:23.400 who put that boy

00:12:24.380 in that alley

00:12:25.280 with that gun.

00:12:26.320 Now let's get to

00:12:28.680 our five headlines.

00:12:35.560 You know,

00:12:36.040 as conservatives,

00:12:36.700 we say we love

00:12:37.500 the Constitution,

00:12:38.380 but very few of us,

00:12:39.640 I think,

00:12:39.900 have actually studied it

00:12:40.980 and probably fewer

00:12:41.980 stand ready to defend it.

00:12:43.240 And that's where

00:12:43.860 my friends over

00:12:44.500 at constitutioncoach.com

00:12:45.900 come in.

00:12:46.700 It's where they got

00:12:47.040 a lot of great programs

00:12:48.000 for equipping citizens

00:12:49.040 to defend liberty

00:12:49.700 by studying

00:12:50.300 and living out

00:12:51.000 the Constitution.

00:12:51.540 and that's why

00:12:53.120 I was so grateful

00:12:53.900 to go and experience

00:12:54.880 their Constitutional

00:12:55.680 Defense course.

00:12:56.720 And it's why I encourage

00:12:57.620 you to do the same.

00:12:58.740 You get an amazing

00:12:59.280 combination of

00:12:59.920 intellectual ammunition

00:13:00.800 and live classes

00:13:01.600 with Rick Green,

00:13:02.380 America's Constitution coach.

00:13:04.040 And you also get

00:13:04.600 the physical training

00:13:05.420 at the premier firearms

00:13:06.500 training facility

00:13:07.040 in the nation.

00:13:07.640 You get this all

00:13:08.100 in the same course.

00:13:09.080 You get to join

00:13:09.440 hundreds of other

00:13:10.860 patriots from across

00:13:11.600 the nation

00:13:12.000 for fellowship,

00:13:13.040 training,

00:13:13.420 and learning.

00:13:15.380 And it's a lot of fun

00:13:16.380 but you come away

00:13:17.220 with a very valuable skill.

00:13:18.340 In fact,

00:13:18.980 whether you've

00:13:19.460 shotguns your whole life

00:13:20.480 or you've never

00:13:21.760 even touched one,

00:13:22.440 wherever you fall

00:13:23.300 in that spectrum,

00:13:24.980 I'm telling you,

00:13:25.680 these people,

00:13:26.220 they took me

00:13:26.760 to an entirely new

00:13:27.460 skill level.

00:13:28.040 They can do the same

00:13:28.700 for you.

00:13:29.620 But you've got to go

00:13:30.280 to constitutioncoach.com.

00:13:31.860 Rick and the

00:13:32.140 Constitution Coach team

00:13:32.880 have another class

00:13:34.040 on April 25th,

00:13:35.060 but you're coming up

00:13:36.020 on your last chance

00:13:36.860 to sign up.

00:13:38.000 So sign up now.

00:13:38.860 Go to constitutioncoach.com.

00:13:40.440 Again, constitutioncoach.com.

00:13:42.100 You know,

00:13:43.680 one other note

00:13:44.200 about this.

00:13:44.900 I just saw

00:13:46.140 Moms Demand Action,

00:13:47.700 the gun control

00:13:48.760 nut cases.

00:13:49.940 They tweeted

00:13:50.580 about this case.

00:13:53.360 They said,

00:13:53.900 update,

00:13:54.660 video released today

00:13:55.500 shows that Adam Toledo,

00:13:56.720 a 13-year-old boy,

00:13:58.100 a 13-year-old Latinx boy

00:13:59.700 who was fatally shot

00:14:01.280 by police

00:14:01.700 in Little Village,

00:14:02.480 Illinois,

00:14:02.920 on March 29th,

00:14:03.680 had his hands up

00:14:04.620 when he was shot

00:14:05.340 and shows no indication

00:14:06.360 that Toledo was holding a gun.

00:14:07.420 Now, that's not true.

00:14:09.600 As we just discussed,

00:14:11.540 the body cam footage

00:14:12.480 clearly shows

00:14:13.020 that he did have a gun

00:14:14.400 and only eight-tenths

00:14:16.280 of a second elapsed

00:14:16.960 between when he had the gun

00:14:17.860 and when the cop

00:14:18.880 pulled the trigger.

00:14:20.240 But I'm really looking

00:14:21.840 at Latinx boy.

00:14:23.320 Like,

00:14:24.480 are you really doing that

00:14:26.060 at a time like this?

00:14:28.440 This boy has died.

00:14:30.940 Can we take a break

00:14:32.140 from that?

00:14:33.900 Can we take a break

00:14:34.880 from that BS

00:14:35.620 for a day?

00:14:36.500 Like,

00:14:36.660 can the LGBT agenda

00:14:38.180 take the day off?

00:14:39.340 You folks have had,

00:14:42.740 you know,

00:14:42.980 you've been pretty active.

00:14:44.260 Take a day off.

00:14:45.940 We don't need

00:14:46.660 the Latinx thing.

00:14:47.900 You don't need

00:14:48.160 to try to inject that

00:14:49.420 into this.

00:14:53.140 It's incredibly disrespectful

00:14:54.940 because the Latino community,

00:14:56.900 they don't use that word.

00:14:59.800 Latino people

00:15:00.440 do not use that word.

00:15:01.500 That is a white

00:15:04.160 LGBT liberal word

00:15:06.120 that you are imposing

00:15:07.380 on them

00:15:07.880 and you're doing it now.

00:15:09.460 You're using the opportunity

00:15:10.460 of a boy's death

00:15:11.080 to do that.

00:15:12.620 It doesn't even make sense

00:15:14.280 because Latinx

00:15:15.860 is supposed to be

00:15:16.660 gender neutral.

00:15:18.680 You're talking about a boy.

00:15:21.100 A gender neutral boy?

00:15:23.380 Latinx boy?

00:15:25.240 He's a boy.

00:15:26.060 Latino.

00:15:26.520 There's a word for that.

00:15:27.880 They have that word

00:15:28.560 in their community

00:15:29.100 and you should use the word

00:15:30.440 out of respect.

00:15:31.780 And also because

00:15:32.160 it's a real word.

00:15:33.660 We don't need to change it.

00:15:37.400 You know,

00:15:37.900 the irony is that

00:15:38.920 so often

00:15:40.020 we hear these claims

00:15:42.600 of appropriation.

00:15:43.800 We hear about

00:15:44.520 white people

00:15:46.220 colonizing foreign cultures

00:15:48.140 and imposing

00:15:49.400 their values

00:15:50.380 and ideas

00:15:50.840 on those cultures.

00:15:52.100 And nine times out of ten

00:15:53.300 those claims

00:15:54.240 end up being bogus.

00:15:55.480 Here's a real example of it.

00:15:57.560 Here's an actual

00:15:58.540 real example

00:15:59.600 of white people

00:16:01.560 white westerners

00:16:02.620 colonizing

00:16:03.500 a foreign culture

00:16:04.420 and imposing

00:16:05.040 their own values

00:16:05.920 and ideas on it

00:16:06.680 with this Latinx thing

00:16:08.160 except that the colonizers

00:16:10.480 in this case

00:16:11.180 and it turns out

00:16:13.260 in most cases

00:16:14.060 are

00:16:14.640 left-wing liberals

00:16:16.900 and so they get a pass.

00:16:20.380 All right.

00:16:21.480 Number one.

00:16:22.180 This is from the LA Times.

00:16:23.460 It says

00:16:23.840 a House committee

00:16:24.720 late Wednesday

00:16:25.540 advanced legislation

00:16:26.660 first introduced in 1989

00:16:27.920 that would study the issue

00:16:29.200 of awarding reparations

00:16:30.460 to the descendants

00:16:31.400 of American slaves.

00:16:34.160 The House Judiciary Committee

00:16:35.660 voted along party lines

00:16:36.840 to send a bill

00:16:37.440 to the House floor

00:16:38.040 for the first time

00:16:38.620 to create a commission

00:16:39.240 to study the legacy

00:16:40.100 of American slavery

00:16:40.880 of racist laws

00:16:42.540 and how they affected

00:16:43.280 formerly enslaved people

00:16:44.600 and their descendants.

00:16:45.360 The bill instructs

00:16:46.000 the 13-person committee

00:16:47.060 to consider

00:16:48.040 a national apology

00:16:49.260 and to recommend

00:16:51.740 any appropriate remedies

00:16:52.960 to Congress

00:16:53.660 for slavery.

00:16:56.900 So this is a bill

00:16:58.120 this is a committee

00:17:00.720 talking about a bill

00:17:01.780 to study

00:17:02.400 there are a lot of steps

00:17:04.120 still to go through

00:17:05.060 and

00:17:06.340 this goes back to 1989

00:17:08.740 so this idea

00:17:10.300 has been out there

00:17:11.300 for a long time.

00:17:13.180 Up until

00:17:13.940 a couple of years ago

00:17:14.920 I would have said

00:17:15.820 this is political posturing

00:17:17.660 it's not really going to happen

00:17:18.900 but

00:17:20.180 I think we're at a point now

00:17:21.340 where this will happen.

00:17:22.180 I'll make that prediction

00:17:23.340 right now.

00:17:23.860 I think some kind

00:17:25.500 of reparation

00:17:26.580 policy will be passed.

00:17:31.320 It is with

00:17:32.520 the Democrats

00:17:34.260 having total control

00:17:35.320 of the government

00:17:35.680 right now

00:17:36.180 and white guilt

00:17:38.720 being at its

00:17:39.420 absolute peak

00:17:40.580 yeah I think

00:17:43.420 it will happen.

00:17:45.100 It's not going to be

00:17:46.280 to the full extent

00:17:48.380 that left-wing activists

00:17:49.640 hope for

00:17:50.060 but it'll be something.

00:17:52.180 Let's look at a few clips here

00:17:53.640 of

00:17:54.040 lawmakers debating this

00:17:56.340 first here is Democrat

00:17:57.500 Hakeem Jeffries

00:17:58.560 arguing for reparations

00:18:00.540 let's hear what his case is.

00:18:02.520 We're not going to move on

00:18:03.340 because after slavery

00:18:04.420 Jim Crow

00:18:05.420 and the rise of the KKK

00:18:07.480 and the lynching epidemic

00:18:09.120 and Plessy vs. Ferguson

00:18:10.720 and Black Wall Street

00:18:13.160 in 1921

00:18:14.520 destroyed

00:18:15.100 why?

00:18:15.720 Because Black prosperity

00:18:17.040 was viewed as a threat

00:18:18.900 to white supremacy

00:18:19.960 so no we're not simply

00:18:21.720 going to move on

00:18:22.940 and when the Great Depression

00:18:25.680 struck

00:18:26.180 African Americans

00:18:27.380 were hit the hardest

00:18:28.260 and we received

00:18:29.400 the least amount of support.

00:18:32.120 Why?

00:18:32.760 Because yes

00:18:33.260 Southern Dixiecrats

00:18:34.320 insisted that in the New Deal

00:18:35.800 African Americans

00:18:36.880 would be excluded

00:18:37.860 while other Americans

00:18:39.240 were helped

00:18:39.760 excluded from Social Security

00:18:41.820 because most of us

00:18:43.460 were domestic workers

00:18:44.660 or many of us

00:18:45.900 and agricultural workers

00:18:47.760 excluded from Social Security

00:18:49.220 excluded from unemployment

00:18:50.820 insurance

00:18:51.880 and excluded

00:18:53.280 from the federally

00:18:54.740 subsidized loans

00:18:56.060 and insured loans

00:18:57.040 that were issued.

00:18:57.940 So between 1934

00:18:59.820 and 1962

00:19:01.700 98%

00:19:03.440 of the federally

00:19:04.920 insured loans

00:19:05.680 that were issued

00:19:06.460 by the federal government

00:19:07.620 were issued

00:19:08.060 to white Americans.

00:19:09.820 Okay.

00:19:10.800 Rather than me

00:19:12.100 responding to that

00:19:13.140 I'd rather hear from

00:19:15.020 Representative Burgess Owens

00:19:17.200 who

00:19:18.700 you can find the clip online

00:19:21.720 it's like five minutes long

00:19:22.840 of everything he has to say

00:19:24.120 about this idea of reparations.

00:19:25.840 Well worth your time

00:19:26.700 to listen to it.

00:19:27.080 We can't play the whole five minutes

00:19:28.000 so here's

00:19:28.600 here's a little bit

00:19:29.960 of what Burgess Owens

00:19:31.080 had to say

00:19:31.440 in response to this idea.

00:19:33.140 I'm looking forward to

00:19:34.100 by the way

00:19:34.640 reparation

00:19:35.300 when you take people's money

00:19:36.300 that they've earned

00:19:37.320 it's punishment

00:19:38.500 it's theft

00:19:39.600 it's judgment

00:19:42.180 it's saying that

00:19:43.940 because of your skin color

00:19:44.960 you owe me

00:19:45.500 that is not the American way

00:19:47.300 we're not racist people

00:19:48.420 this American country

00:19:50.080 is based on meritocracy

00:19:51.200 and I tell you

00:19:52.780 anybody who's been in sports

00:19:53.760 or military

00:19:54.760 you guys get it

00:19:55.720 at the end of the day

00:19:57.320 it's the character

00:19:58.740 it's resolve

00:19:59.560 it's the loyalty

00:20:00.200 that makes a difference

00:20:01.220 the color of skin

00:20:02.400 has nothing to do with

00:20:03.440 how we choose

00:20:04.580 those people

00:20:05.060 that we want to trust

00:20:05.760 and move forward with.

00:20:07.460 Yeah that's

00:20:08.240 that kind of

00:20:08.880 sums it up

00:20:09.780 that's what it is

00:20:10.420 it is

00:20:10.860 punishment

00:20:12.900 vengeance

00:20:13.720 that's why I say

00:20:16.420 what is greasing

00:20:18.320 the wheels here

00:20:19.280 for this to actually happen

00:20:20.520 is white guilt

00:20:21.420 white guilt

00:20:22.760 at an all time high

00:20:23.780 in this country

00:20:24.960 especially on the left

00:20:27.020 but not just on the left

00:20:29.480 this is something

00:20:31.300 that is being drilled

00:20:32.600 into kids' heads

00:20:34.680 from a very young age

00:20:35.920 and it gets more

00:20:38.140 and more intense

00:20:38.840 as they get older

00:20:39.720 you get into college

00:20:40.440 and it is full-on

00:20:43.020 cult-like brainwashing

00:20:44.460 but the idea is

00:20:45.460 if you're

00:20:45.860 white

00:20:47.200 you're guilty

00:20:48.960 of these sins

00:20:50.740 from the past

00:20:51.500 you have unique

00:20:54.200 ancestral guilt

00:20:55.660 as I always say

00:20:57.780 it's a very religious

00:20:58.900 kind of idea

00:20:59.820 this is their religion

00:21:01.040 the idea of

00:21:02.860 inherited guilt

00:21:03.860 only in this case

00:21:05.440 it is racially

00:21:06.680 inherited guilt

00:21:07.420 like there's guilt

00:21:09.880 that flows

00:21:10.780 in the bloodline

00:21:12.200 for white people

00:21:12.920 and this is

00:21:15.960 an idea

00:21:16.600 that many people

00:21:17.520 find very convincing

00:21:18.560 and compelling

00:21:18.980 because it's been

00:21:19.500 beaten to their heads

00:21:20.240 and that's why

00:21:23.380 a lot of white people

00:21:24.100 in this country now

00:21:24.660 would submit to this

00:21:26.360 having money

00:21:28.360 taken out of their wallets

00:21:29.780 food taken out

00:21:30.460 of their children's mouths

00:21:31.360 to pay for a sin

00:21:34.060 they didn't commit

00:21:34.980 they had nothing

00:21:35.660 to do with

00:21:36.360 at all

00:21:37.040 now one thing

00:21:40.820 that is rarely clarified

00:21:42.360 when we hear this idea

00:21:43.180 of reparations

00:21:44.100 you heard it

00:21:44.740 when I was reading

00:21:45.040 from the LA Times article

00:21:45.920 they talk about

00:21:46.560 reparation for the

00:21:47.640 descendants of

00:21:48.640 African slaves

00:21:49.820 well even that

00:21:51.900 is a horrible idea

00:21:52.660 but is that

00:21:53.260 really all you're

00:21:54.320 talking about

00:21:54.800 so we're going to

00:21:56.280 before we pay

00:21:57.760 reparations

00:21:58.420 to a black American

00:21:59.500 first we're going to

00:22:00.000 make sure they actually

00:22:00.620 are a descendant

00:22:01.380 of an African slave

00:22:02.360 is that what

00:22:03.080 we're talking about

00:22:03.700 because that's going

00:22:06.980 to exclude

00:22:07.440 many millions

00:22:08.220 of black Americans

00:22:09.040 who live here now

00:22:09.680 and are not

00:22:10.060 descendants of

00:22:10.880 African slaves

00:22:12.480 because their family

00:22:13.760 came here

00:22:14.240 more recently

00:22:15.060 than that

00:22:15.520 but if we're doing

00:22:17.100 that

00:22:17.560 okay so if we're

00:22:18.560 if we are

00:22:19.420 if we're going

00:22:22.520 if we're going to

00:22:22.940 single out

00:22:23.640 the descendants

00:22:24.320 of African slaves

00:22:25.400 then are we also

00:22:27.580 going to single out

00:22:28.200 the descendants

00:22:28.720 of slave owners

00:22:31.200 what about the people

00:22:34.420 who

00:22:35.000 white people

00:22:36.920 whose families

00:22:37.840 came here

00:22:38.420 well after slavery

00:22:39.780 had already been abolished

00:22:41.920 like me for example

00:22:43.300 my family

00:22:44.080 my family wasn't here

00:22:45.660 when that was happening

00:22:46.260 my family's largely Irish

00:22:49.360 which means

00:22:50.440 not only did they

00:22:51.160 not own slaves

00:22:51.960 but when they came here

00:22:52.880 they faced

00:22:53.420 quite a lot of discrimination

00:22:54.480 systemic discrimination

00:22:55.680 as well

00:22:56.360 do I get some kind

00:22:58.540 of reparation for that

00:22:59.500 I mean

00:23:01.880 you could

00:23:03.340 easily make the case

00:23:04.840 that

00:23:05.220 when my

00:23:07.200 my Irish ancestors

00:23:09.140 came here

00:23:09.640 they faced

00:23:10.320 discrimination

00:23:11.480 systemic discrimination

00:23:12.420 against Irish people

00:23:13.760 which was very common

00:23:15.420 back then

00:23:15.980 and if

00:23:17.700 and you know

00:23:18.660 that set them

00:23:20.040 on a certain path

00:23:21.240 and if it weren't

00:23:22.320 for that

00:23:22.740 I could be

00:23:23.280 in a totally

00:23:23.640 different spot

00:23:24.040 right now

00:23:24.300 I could be

00:23:24.640 much richer

00:23:25.140 much more

00:23:26.080 well off

00:23:26.560 you know

00:23:26.820 butterfly effect

00:23:27.980 and all that

00:23:28.480 you can make

00:23:29.460 that case

00:23:29.940 but then

00:23:33.760 if you're going

00:23:34.060 to do that

00:23:34.640 then you could

00:23:35.340 really take

00:23:36.000 anyone

00:23:36.580 and you could

00:23:38.440 trace it back

00:23:39.280 and you could

00:23:39.840 find the

00:23:40.840 misfortune suffered

00:23:41.820 by their ancestors

00:23:42.720 tragedies that

00:23:43.660 befell them

00:23:44.220 oppression

00:23:44.700 they suffered

00:23:45.340 it would be

00:23:48.260 very hard

00:23:48.900 to find

00:23:49.400 probably

00:23:49.700 anyone on earth

00:23:50.740 outside of like

00:23:52.260 I don't know

00:23:52.480 the royal family

00:23:53.340 it would be

00:23:54.400 there are not

00:23:55.420 very many people

00:23:55.940 on earth

00:23:56.320 who

00:23:57.880 do not have

00:23:59.860 very real

00:24:00.900 oppression

00:24:01.380 in their bloodline

00:24:03.620 going back to

00:24:04.160 their ancestors

00:24:04.740 oppression

00:24:08.140 persecution

00:24:09.000 tragedy

00:24:09.980 suffering

00:24:11.480 you know

00:24:11.920 that's

00:24:12.700 common

00:24:13.340 for all

00:24:13.700 people

00:24:13.940 everywhere

00:24:14.240 for all

00:24:14.640 time

00:24:14.900 but

00:24:15.220 especially

00:24:16.060 when you

00:24:16.280 go back

00:24:16.520 through history

00:24:16.960 but as I said

00:24:20.140 this all comes

00:24:20.600 down to white

00:24:21.020 guilt

00:24:21.260 and speaking

00:24:22.140 of which

00:24:22.720 some

00:24:23.420 celebrities

00:24:24.120 including some

00:24:24.740 white celebrities

00:24:25.260 have come out

00:24:25.820 in favor of reparations

00:24:27.000 put together a PSA

00:24:28.040 explaining why

00:24:28.960 we should all

00:24:29.560 pay reparations

00:24:30.280 and here's that

00:24:31.320 lame argument

00:24:33.360 against reparations

00:24:35.080 talking about

00:24:36.720 slavery is

00:24:37.520 keeping racism

00:24:38.400 alive or

00:24:39.240 perpetuating the

00:24:40.260 victim mentality

00:24:41.240 no

00:24:41.980 if we were to

00:24:49.240 stop talking

00:24:50.040 about racism

00:24:51.380 tomorrow

00:24:52.280 do you think

00:24:53.780 that that would

00:24:54.320 stop another

00:24:55.740 unarmed black

00:24:56.980 person from being

00:24:58.000 shot and killed

00:24:58.920 by the police

00:24:59.880 do you think

00:25:02.460 not talking

00:25:03.320 about racism

00:25:04.100 would change

00:25:05.360 the fact

00:25:06.320 that black

00:25:07.380 women are

00:25:08.240 more likely

00:25:09.000 to die

00:25:09.940 during child

00:25:10.600 birth

00:25:10.940 we're out of

00:25:12.020 excuses as a

00:25:12.900 country

00:25:13.240 so please

00:25:14.060 stop making

00:25:14.720 them

00:25:15.140 we built this

00:25:16.120 country on the

00:25:16.880 backs of

00:25:18.040 black and brown

00:25:19.360 people

00:25:19.760 and we still

00:25:21.800 haven't really

00:25:22.400 done anything

00:25:23.420 to say

00:25:24.040 very eloquent

00:25:27.160 from Chelsea

00:25:27.680 Handler as

00:25:28.220 always

00:25:28.520 we haven't

00:25:29.180 done anything

00:25:29.680 to say

00:25:30.360 F

00:25:31.400 well you're

00:25:33.200 right

00:25:33.320 well I mean

00:25:34.000 she said

00:25:34.380 she has done

00:25:34.940 a lot to

00:25:35.320 say that

00:25:35.640 if she has

00:25:37.480 done nothing

00:25:37.820 else in her

00:25:38.180 life she has

00:25:38.700 certainly said

00:25:39.300 that word

00:25:39.740 quite a bit

00:25:40.240 that will be

00:25:42.100 that is

00:25:42.500 that is

00:25:42.840 that will be

00:25:43.700 the

00:25:43.980 really the

00:25:45.520 monument to

00:25:46.200 hers

00:25:46.500 at least

00:25:47.100 that she

00:25:47.520 used that

00:25:47.800 word a lot

00:25:48.180 if you

00:25:49.120 look

00:25:49.740 if you're

00:25:50.580 a white

00:25:50.880 well-off

00:25:51.760 celebrity

00:25:52.140 and you

00:25:52.940 feel this

00:25:53.420 guilt

00:25:53.660 and you

00:25:54.340 think you

00:25:54.620 need to

00:25:54.840 pay

00:25:54.980 reparations

00:25:55.540 I've got

00:25:56.020 an idea

00:25:56.440 pay

00:25:58.060 reparations

00:25:58.720 no one's

00:26:00.200 stopping you

00:26:00.820 you can

00:26:02.800 take your

00:26:03.760 money

00:26:04.040 give it to

00:26:04.720 black families

00:26:05.660 there are

00:26:06.960 charities that

00:26:07.540 you can

00:26:07.880 donate to

00:26:09.080 there's all

00:26:09.460 kinds of

00:26:09.780 things you

00:26:10.040 can do

00:26:10.360 you can see

00:26:11.860 them in that

00:26:12.560 video sitting

00:26:13.160 in their

00:26:13.380 comfortable

00:26:13.640 homes

00:26:14.120 because what

00:26:17.180 they're really

00:26:17.480 saying is no

00:26:18.080 no it's not

00:26:18.740 that I should

00:26:19.180 have to pay

00:26:19.680 it's all

00:26:20.200 you people

00:26:20.620 out there

00:26:20.880 should have

00:26:21.120 to pay

00:26:21.420 I mean by

00:26:23.960 their logic

00:26:24.700 they're the

00:26:25.100 most privileged

00:26:25.640 so they

00:26:26.080 should have

00:26:26.280 to pay

00:26:26.480 the most

00:26:26.900 and also

00:26:30.580 who's the

00:26:31.240 first celebrity

00:26:31.940 we saw

00:26:32.240 there

00:26:32.420 the quote

00:26:32.800 unquote

00:26:32.980 celebrity

00:26:33.300 was Alyssa

00:26:34.080 Milano

00:26:34.460 she said

00:26:36.180 if we stop

00:26:36.820 talking about

00:26:37.320 racism

00:26:37.740 you think

00:26:38.020 that's going

00:26:38.280 to stop

00:26:38.760 black men

00:26:40.120 from getting

00:26:40.400 shot by the

00:26:40.920 cops

00:26:41.200 well

00:26:42.040 in a way

00:26:44.440 yeah I mean

00:26:45.040 it may prevent

00:26:46.020 some of that

00:26:46.680 if we stop

00:26:48.280 obsessing over

00:26:49.180 race

00:26:49.600 and race

00:26:51.000 related things

00:26:51.760 and if we

00:26:53.080 stop telling

00:26:53.700 people that

00:26:54.440 cops are

00:26:55.440 homicidal

00:26:56.920 racist

00:26:57.680 lunatics

00:26:58.220 prowling through

00:26:58.840 the streets

00:26:59.180 looking for

00:26:59.620 black men

00:27:00.060 to murder

00:27:00.440 if we stop

00:27:01.500 saying that

00:27:02.080 then yeah

00:27:03.540 I think we

00:27:04.020 actually would

00:27:04.600 cut down

00:27:05.120 on the amount

00:27:06.400 of police

00:27:08.080 involved shootings

00:27:08.760 you know

00:27:11.760 when you tell

00:27:12.280 someone you

00:27:12.660 take a young

00:27:13.320 black child

00:27:13.880 and you give

00:27:14.680 that's the

00:27:15.420 message that

00:27:16.260 you send to

00:27:16.740 them from a

00:27:17.200 young age

00:27:17.680 that the cops

00:27:18.740 hate you

00:27:19.200 they want to

00:27:19.940 kill you

00:27:20.460 they want

00:27:21.000 you dead

00:27:21.540 they're all

00:27:22.760 they're all

00:27:23.160 clan members

00:27:23.880 and racists

00:27:24.500 and they're

00:27:25.020 out there

00:27:25.460 hunting black

00:27:26.080 men

00:27:26.360 and you tell

00:27:28.080 a young

00:27:28.440 black child

00:27:29.480 that

00:27:29.820 yes you

00:27:31.760 have greatly

00:27:32.740 increased the

00:27:33.540 chance that

00:27:34.520 he is going to

00:27:36.260 have hostile

00:27:36.720 interactions with

00:27:37.380 the police

00:27:37.720 yes

00:27:38.460 all right

00:27:41.460 one other

00:27:42.580 clip I want

00:27:43.080 to play

00:27:43.480 somewhat

00:27:44.660 related

00:27:45.120 Patrice

00:27:46.180 Cullors

00:27:46.700 is the

00:27:47.200 founder of

00:27:48.360 one of the

00:27:48.940 co-founders

00:27:49.500 of BLM

00:27:50.080 and there's

00:27:51.680 been controversy

00:27:52.200 recently because

00:27:53.060 she calls

00:27:54.580 herself a

00:27:54.980 trained Marxist

00:27:56.200 and BLM

00:27:58.020 is a Marxist

00:27:58.820 organization

00:27:59.380 the founders

00:28:00.980 of BLM

00:28:01.480 are very clear

00:28:02.040 about that

00:28:02.420 it is a

00:28:02.700 Marxist

00:28:03.040 organization

00:28:03.500 but even

00:28:05.580 though she's

00:28:05.900 a trained

00:28:06.160 Marxist

00:28:06.640 she has

00:28:07.240 made a lot

00:28:07.660 of money

00:28:07.980 and then she

00:28:08.480 went out

00:28:08.740 and bought

00:28:09.020 four houses

00:28:09.660 she's investing

00:28:10.300 in real estate

00:28:11.020 of course

00:28:11.620 they're all

00:28:11.900 in white

00:28:12.220 neighborhoods

00:28:12.660 and there's

00:28:14.240 been blowback

00:28:15.720 because of that

00:28:16.360 on both sides

00:28:17.100 left and right

00:28:17.880 and here she

00:28:18.500 is with

00:28:18.820 Mark Lamont

00:28:19.520 Hill

00:28:19.860 trying to

00:28:20.420 defend her

00:28:21.260 decision as

00:28:22.060 a Marxist

00:28:22.620 to buy

00:28:22.920 four homes

00:28:23.420 let's listen

00:28:24.120 to that

00:28:24.380 there's also

00:28:26.180 a critique

00:28:26.760 though from

00:28:27.200 the left

00:28:27.720 that would

00:28:28.280 say if

00:28:29.920 you are

00:28:30.480 a trained

00:28:30.980 Marxist

00:28:31.480 if we're

00:28:31.780 talking about

00:28:32.400 a certain

00:28:32.800 kind of

00:28:33.180 radical

00:28:33.540 politic

00:28:34.100 that

00:28:35.060 extravagant

00:28:35.820 homes of

00:28:36.300 any sort

00:28:36.880 or multiple

00:28:37.600 properties

00:28:38.280 of any

00:28:38.720 sort

00:28:39.000 is itself

00:28:39.740 contradictory

00:28:40.380 to the

00:28:40.880 ideology

00:28:41.300 that you

00:28:41.720 hold

00:28:41.980 and so

00:28:42.200 it's not

00:28:42.500 about having

00:28:43.200 money per

00:28:43.820 se

00:28:44.200 but that

00:28:45.020 it's about

00:28:45.640 or about

00:28:46.640 property per

00:28:47.220 se but it's

00:28:47.820 about there

00:28:48.240 being a

00:28:48.580 potential

00:28:48.860 contradiction

00:28:49.360 between your

00:28:50.040 express politics

00:28:50.840 and your

00:28:51.320 lived practice

00:28:52.140 sure and

00:28:54.700 I think

00:28:55.380 that is

00:28:56.380 a critique

00:28:57.420 that is

00:28:58.320 wanting

00:28:59.520 and I say

00:29:00.260 that because

00:29:01.140 the way

00:29:04.640 that I

00:29:05.100 live my

00:29:05.520 life is

00:29:06.140 a direct

00:29:06.580 support to

00:29:07.300 black people

00:29:07.960 including my

00:29:08.660 black family

00:29:09.220 members

00:29:09.700 first and

00:29:11.040 foremost

00:29:11.500 and for

00:29:13.200 so many

00:29:13.880 black folks

00:29:14.880 who are

00:29:16.100 able to

00:29:16.560 invest in

00:29:18.040 themselves and

00:29:18.740 their community

00:29:19.360 they choose to

00:29:20.480 invest in their

00:29:21.040 family and

00:29:21.820 that's what I've

00:29:22.580 chosen to do

00:29:23.400 I have a

00:29:24.640 child I have

00:29:25.480 a brother that

00:29:26.380 has severe

00:29:27.000 mental illness

00:29:27.560 that I take

00:29:28.020 care of

00:29:28.500 I support

00:29:29.700 my mother

00:29:30.220 and I support

00:29:31.920 many other

00:29:32.500 family members

00:29:33.180 of mine

00:29:33.600 and so I

00:29:34.680 see my

00:29:36.720 money as

00:29:37.660 not my

00:29:38.200 own I see

00:29:38.840 it as

00:29:39.300 my family's

00:29:41.200 money as

00:29:41.900 well

00:29:42.300 right yeah

00:29:43.960 you know

00:29:45.580 she was a

00:29:46.200 Marxist

00:29:46.720 translation

00:29:47.500 I was a

00:29:48.480 Marxist

00:29:48.820 until I

00:29:49.120 had money

00:29:49.560 that's it

00:29:51.300 it's really

00:29:52.300 easy to be

00:29:52.920 a Marxist

00:29:53.560 when you're

00:29:55.420 broke

00:29:55.720 you know

00:29:57.760 most of

00:29:58.440 the Marxists

00:29:59.340 you see on

00:30:00.000 the internet

00:30:00.780 advocating for

00:30:01.620 Marxism

00:30:01.960 just a bunch

00:30:02.420 of broke

00:30:02.720 they're all

00:30:03.300 broke

00:30:03.580 a lot of

00:30:04.380 them living

00:30:04.660 at home

00:30:04.940 with their

00:30:05.140 parents

00:30:05.500 really easy

00:30:07.400 to do

00:30:07.780 then once

00:30:08.400 you have

00:30:08.620 money

00:30:08.860 it's a

00:30:09.100 whole

00:30:09.200 different

00:30:09.380 ballgame

00:30:09.780 and the

00:30:11.520 thing is

00:30:11.820 what she

00:30:12.080 said there

00:30:12.600 about hey

00:30:13.300 you know

00:30:13.560 I've got

00:30:13.880 my own

00:30:14.100 family

00:30:14.360 I want to

00:30:14.560 take care

00:30:14.780 of my

00:30:14.960 family

00:30:15.240 totally fine

00:30:16.580 I completely

00:30:18.060 sympathize with

00:30:19.680 that I agree

00:30:20.340 with it

00:30:20.700 I think your

00:30:22.120 first responsibility

00:30:22.820 is to your

00:30:23.500 family

00:30:23.880 it's nobody

00:30:25.100 else's business

00:30:25.860 you want to

00:30:26.260 buy four

00:30:26.660 homes buy

00:30:27.100 four buy

00:30:27.480 ten homes

00:30:27.920 if you want

00:30:28.320 totally no

00:30:29.540 one else's

00:30:29.880 business

00:30:30.200 it could be

00:30:31.980 that you're

00:30:32.260 being greedy

00:30:32.880 and miserly

00:30:33.540 and everything

00:30:33.860 else

00:30:34.260 even that

00:30:35.580 is nobody

00:30:35.900 else's

00:30:36.220 business

00:30:36.440 or it

00:30:36.800 could be

00:30:37.140 that you're

00:30:37.560 you're taking

00:30:38.220 care of

00:30:38.600 people

00:30:38.920 you have

00:30:40.140 a mother

00:30:40.400 you're taking

00:30:40.700 care of

00:30:41.000 you have

00:30:41.220 a

00:30:41.460 taking care

00:30:42.700 of her

00:30:42.880 brother

00:30:43.100 she claims

00:30:43.660 completely

00:30:45.620 fine

00:30:46.040 I get

00:30:46.440 it

00:30:46.780 yeah

00:30:48.420 but see

00:30:49.260 I'm allowed

00:30:50.240 to have

00:30:50.740 that position

00:30:51.480 because I'm

00:30:52.000 not a

00:30:52.260 Marxist

00:30:52.760 but you

00:30:53.300 are

00:30:53.640 that is

00:30:56.380 exactly

00:30:56.860 the kind

00:30:57.360 of argument

00:30:57.800 and logic

00:30:58.400 that as

00:30:59.020 a Marxist

00:31:00.300 you have

00:31:01.180 been arguing

00:31:01.720 against

00:31:02.200 and shouting

00:31:02.840 down

00:31:03.460 for years

00:31:04.600 because that

00:31:07.960 really is

00:31:08.480 the whole

00:31:08.800 argument

00:31:09.240 at least

00:31:10.440 on the

00:31:10.920 at least

00:31:11.740 the economic

00:31:12.400 part of it

00:31:13.080 that

00:31:14.680 that's the

00:31:15.880 argument

00:31:16.100 for financial

00:31:17.120 freedom

00:31:17.540 economic

00:31:18.300 freedom

00:31:18.620 I should be

00:31:20.480 able to earn

00:31:20.920 money

00:31:21.260 and take

00:31:22.260 care of

00:31:22.500 my own

00:31:22.740 family

00:31:23.020 my

00:31:23.280 my first

00:31:24.720 responsibility

00:31:25.360 as a man

00:31:26.440 as a human

00:31:26.920 being

00:31:27.200 is to my

00:31:27.720 own family

00:31:28.280 and I

00:31:29.220 should be

00:31:29.500 able to

00:31:29.800 take care

00:31:30.260 of them

00:31:30.640 in the

00:31:31.740 way that

00:31:32.300 and to

00:31:32.920 the extent

00:31:33.480 that I

00:31:34.120 want

00:31:34.500 I shouldn't

00:31:36.980 have to

00:31:37.180 explain that

00:31:37.700 to anybody

00:31:38.060 I shouldn't

00:31:38.340 have to

00:31:38.520 justify it

00:31:39.340 and there

00:31:41.640 shouldn't be

00:31:41.900 anyone coming

00:31:42.320 in saying

00:31:42.640 no you've

00:31:43.020 taken care

00:31:43.340 of your

00:31:43.520 family

00:31:43.820 enough

00:31:44.140 now you

00:31:44.440 have to

00:31:44.620 take care

00:31:44.860 of this

00:31:45.040 family

00:31:45.280 over here

00:31:45.700 now you

00:31:46.760 have to

00:31:46.860 take care

00:31:47.080 of my

00:31:47.340 family

00:31:47.680 yeah that's

00:31:50.060 that's the

00:31:50.520 argument that

00:31:50.900 we've been

00:31:51.380 making but

00:31:52.040 Patrice

00:31:52.400 colors

00:31:52.960 has not

00:31:55.800 agreed with

00:31:56.120 that until

00:31:56.580 now

00:31:56.940 and only

00:31:58.080 for her

00:31:58.560 because I

00:32:01.280 guess that's

00:32:01.820 that's the

00:32:02.420 real argument

00:32:02.840 the real

00:32:03.120 argument is

00:32:03.820 yeah but

00:32:05.060 it's different

00:32:05.480 for me

00:32:05.880 she should

00:32:06.920 have just

00:32:07.140 said that

00:32:07.440 I think I'd

00:32:07.740 almost respect

00:32:08.320 that if she

00:32:08.760 said if that

00:32:09.200 was her

00:32:09.420 whole answer

00:32:10.000 you know if

00:32:12.520 Mark Lamont

00:32:13.000 Hill had said

00:32:13.500 how do you

00:32:13.900 justify this

00:32:14.520 and if she

00:32:14.940 had only

00:32:15.280 said you

00:32:16.340 know it's

00:32:16.620 different for

00:32:16.940 me I would

00:32:19.320 say okay at

00:32:20.000 least you're

00:32:20.240 being honest

00:32:20.700 all right we

00:32:22.820 got to play

00:32:23.160 this you know

00:32:23.880 the left

00:32:24.520 really really

00:32:25.180 hates Ron

00:32:25.760 DeSantis

00:32:26.100 and when the

00:32:28.660 left really

00:32:29.180 really hates

00:32:29.720 you they will

00:32:30.320 do anything

00:32:31.120 to destroy you

00:32:32.320 anything so

00:32:33.580 here's Joy

00:32:34.160 Reed on

00:32:34.580 MSNBC along

00:32:36.360 with her

00:32:36.660 guest implicating

00:32:38.340 implicating Ron

00:32:41.960 DeSantis in a

00:32:43.720 sex trafficking

00:32:44.380 scandal with

00:32:45.760 no evidence

00:32:46.440 whatsoever she's

00:32:48.260 just tossing it

00:32:48.840 out there let's

00:32:49.920 listen the question

00:32:51.460 for Gates because

00:32:52.220 obviously Greenberg

00:32:53.360 has to give

00:32:53.800 somebody bigger

00:32:54.240 than him that

00:32:54.720 would be Gates

00:32:55.240 here is at

00:32:56.420 least per the

00:32:57.660 reporting the

00:32:58.720 people who were

00:32:59.300 on that Bahamas

00:33:00.100 trip notice if

00:33:00.840 you see somebody's

00:33:01.520 name that rings a

00:33:03.360 couple of times

00:33:04.080 you had at least

00:33:04.600 five women per

00:33:05.280 Politico you had

00:33:06.060 Gates you had a

00:33:07.200 guy named Jason

00:33:07.780 Pirazzolo the hand

00:33:09.380 surgeon and GOP

00:33:10.320 fundraiser to Ron

00:33:12.200 DeSantis who

00:33:14.100 apparently Gates

00:33:14.800 wanted to turn into

00:33:15.600 the Attorney General

00:33:16.240 of Florida there's

00:33:17.020 Halsey Bashir's a

00:33:19.160 former state

00:33:19.540 legislator and former

00:33:21.100 appointed official in

00:33:22.160 the DeSantis

00:33:23.000 administration if

00:33:24.680 you're Ron DeSantis

00:33:25.420 does this feel like

00:33:26.440 it's creeping closer to

00:33:27.400 you because these are

00:33:27.900 your friends these

00:33:28.520 are your allies

00:33:29.100 yeah just as

00:33:31.580 Greenberg's lawyer

00:33:33.080 said about Matt

00:33:34.140 Gates when he left

00:33:35.240 the courthouse the

00:33:36.260 other day he said

00:33:37.140 you know what if I

00:33:38.240 were Matt Gates I

00:33:39.120 don't think I'd be all

00:33:40.060 that comfortable right

00:33:41.140 about now you have

00:33:42.540 to believe that

00:33:43.380 DeSantis I mean these

00:33:44.580 are his boys these

00:33:45.440 are his guys right

00:33:46.540 we've seen the

00:33:47.220 pictures we've heard

00:33:47.980 the stories you have

00:33:49.340 to believe that Ron

00:33:50.400 DeSantis if he has

00:33:52.200 done anything wrong

00:33:53.380 feels like things are

00:33:54.900 creeping closer and

00:33:56.260 closer to him

00:33:57.100 my god what what

00:33:59.260 they sink lower and

00:34:01.000 lower by the day you

00:34:01.920 keep thinking you

00:34:02.420 can't be surprised by

00:34:03.480 by but what

00:34:04.440 scumbags I hope that

00:34:06.000 Ron DeSantis sues them

00:34:07.140 both into bankruptcy

00:34:08.240 and oblivion I really

00:34:11.120 hope I really hope

00:34:13.900 that Ron DeSantis

00:34:14.920 sues them into

00:34:15.780 bankruptcy they lose

00:34:16.600 their homes then

00:34:18.000 Patrice colors can

00:34:18.720 come in and and buy

00:34:20.080 their homes out from

00:34:20.700 underneath them that's

00:34:21.680 what I hope happens

00:34:22.360 my lord

00:34:26.260 implicating him in the

00:34:29.200 sex trafficking sex

00:34:30.060 scandal there is no

00:34:31.780 evidence at all that

00:34:33.580 Ron DeSantis has anything

00:34:34.840 to do with any of this

00:34:36.500 oh but they're not

00:34:38.880 accusing him they're

00:34:39.580 just asking questions

00:34:40.960 that's all

00:34:41.540 I mean just like I could

00:34:47.100 ask the question of the

00:34:48.040 guy up there I don't even

00:34:48.680 know his name the guy

00:34:49.400 that we were just

00:34:50.220 listening to I could

00:34:51.240 ask the question is he

00:34:52.580 a pedophile I'm not

00:34:54.640 saying he is I'm

00:34:55.400 asking a question is he

00:34:56.960 he hasn't denied that

00:34:58.940 he is I mean you

00:35:01.840 heard him speaking

00:35:02.440 there did he deny in

00:35:03.640 that statement that he's

00:35:04.440 a pedophile I don't

00:35:05.720 know they really hate

00:35:10.580 Ron DeSantis and

00:35:11.380 they're they're afraid

00:35:12.100 of him and that and

00:35:12.980 that probably tells you

00:35:14.000 everything you need to

00:35:14.580 know about Ron DeSantis

00:35:15.500 I think tells you why

00:35:18.020 he's probably he's

00:35:18.940 probably the guy should

00:35:19.740 be the guy 2024 they

00:35:20.840 really don't want him

00:35:21.960 they really really

00:35:23.360 don't want him to be

00:35:23.960 the guy they're not

00:35:25.760 spending a lot of time

00:35:26.400 attacking Trump

00:35:26.960 anymore it's Ron

00:35:27.700 DeSantis the Trump

00:35:30.380 is a different story

00:35:31.160 and that's quite

00:35:32.900 startling in its own

00:35:33.940 way because you know

00:35:35.300 they're not talking

00:35:36.300 about Trump at all

00:35:37.080 anymore Trump has

00:35:39.080 become and you know

00:35:40.360 Trump fans out there

00:35:42.200 aren't gonna like me

00:35:42.680 saying this but Trump

00:35:43.500 has become a cultural

00:35:44.560 non-factor like he

00:35:47.260 he doesn't even matter

00:35:48.280 anymore he releases

00:35:50.340 statements and that

00:35:51.040 kind of thing and

00:35:51.460 makes no waves at all

00:35:52.680 the reason for that is

00:35:54.140 that the big tech has

00:35:55.320 just wiped him out

00:35:56.600 big tech came in and

00:35:58.700 this is Donald Trump

00:36:00.120 okay former president

00:36:01.860 the most famous and

00:36:04.460 talked about guy an

00:36:06.140 influential guy in the

00:36:07.460 world for the last like

00:36:08.460 six years big tech came

00:36:10.580 in and said no you're

00:36:11.980 done we're done with

00:36:13.420 you you don't exist

00:36:14.660 anymore and it worked

00:36:16.420 he's a non-factor

00:36:18.540 there might be something

00:36:21.940 he can do about that

00:36:22.920 but it's gonna take a

00:36:24.640 lot of effort you have

00:36:26.100 to be very clever about

00:36:26.960 it to get around that

00:36:27.900 so far as it stands they

00:36:30.460 have erased him and now

00:36:33.060 they're moving on to

00:36:33.540 Ron DeSantis and the

00:36:36.580 advantage also that Ron

00:36:37.640 DeSantis has is he's not

00:36:39.420 on Twitter I don't think

00:36:40.600 he's not he doesn't really

00:36:42.240 rely on big tech for for

00:36:45.040 Donald Trump he that

00:36:47.440 was his game was to use

00:36:48.820 big tech like you know

00:36:51.380 to use it to elevate

00:36:53.400 himself and he rode that

00:36:55.040 all the way to the

00:36:55.500 presence presidency which

00:36:56.440 was quite brilliant but

00:36:58.100 this double-edged sword

00:36:58.840 then they pulled the rug

00:37:00.500 out now he's gone that's

00:37:03.040 Ron DeSantis is doing it

00:37:04.100 a very different way

00:37:04.780 they're gonna have to do

00:37:06.940 they're gonna have to

00:37:07.540 they're gonna find a

00:37:08.180 different way to get rid

00:37:09.080 of him all right um

00:37:12.060 okay we gotta before we

00:37:13.480 move on to reading the

00:37:14.000 comments like we gotta

00:37:14.860 do this article just

00:37:15.520 because it's really

00:37:15.920 important this is from

00:37:16.580 the New York Post um

00:37:17.960 and uh I'll just read

00:37:19.760 this is the news okay

00:37:20.500 I'm just reading to you

00:37:21.240 what the news is and

00:37:22.760 it's important news it

00:37:24.360 says they're taking a

00:37:25.280 shortcut as the weather

00:37:26.440 is turning warm men are

00:37:27.840 embracing extra short

00:37:29.100 shorts and Twitter is

00:37:30.500 loving it last week the

00:37:32.400 this is us actor Milo

00:37:34.100 Ventimiglia made waves

00:37:37.060 when he flashed his gams

00:37:38.400 while leaving the gym in

00:37:39.580 teeny weeny pants his

00:37:41.240 thunder thighs grabbed

00:37:42.320 everyone's attention and

00:37:43.580 left fans wanting more

00:37:44.780 I'm reading the article

00:37:45.740 okay uh here's we have

00:37:47.320 the picture up there on

00:37:48.240 that no oh my god no

00:37:50.300 that is not we cannot do

00:37:53.620 this that is not

00:37:54.160 acceptable so what

00:37:55.080 they're claiming is that

00:37:56.080 this is the fashion now

00:37:57.100 those are hot pants it

00:37:59.240 looks like he's not

00:37:59.920 wearing pants at all in

00:38:00.920 fact is he wearing pants

00:38:02.120 is he even wearing it

00:38:03.740 looks like he's wearing a

00:38:04.340 t-shirt and there's no

00:38:05.240 and he's not wearing

00:38:05.700 anything underneath it I

00:38:06.380 don't know

00:38:06.660 what they're claiming is

00:38:09.100 that this is the fashion

00:38:09.940 now um is men wearing

00:38:11.560 shorts like that and I

00:38:13.000 will say I'm not gonna

00:38:15.320 allow that that cannot be

00:38:16.540 the fashion we're not

00:38:17.800 doing this guys we are

00:38:18.840 not doing it we're going

00:38:21.400 back to cargo shorts

00:38:22.440 there was nothing wrong

00:38:23.620 with cargo shorts

00:38:24.400 fashionable um quite

00:38:27.340 handsome and and

00:38:28.600 practical as well and

00:38:31.100 they cover more of your

00:38:32.320 pale gross legs so the

00:38:34.440 world doesn't have to

00:38:34.980 look at them what the

00:38:37.600 hell is happening with

00:38:38.640 you know jeans all the

00:38:40.200 so the fashion now is

00:38:41.160 for jeans we're going

00:38:42.100 back to baggy jinko

00:38:43.520 style jeans while the

00:38:45.440 shorts are getting

00:38:45.900 shorter doesn't make any

00:38:47.780 sense to me meanwhile

00:38:49.840 I'm over here wearing my

00:38:50.680 polka dot shirt everything

00:38:51.920 is confused nothing makes

00:38:53.020 any sense okay let's move

00:38:54.600 now to uh reading the

00:38:55.520 youtube comments this is

00:38:57.900 from uh one user who

00:38:59.860 says youtube now

00:39:01.080 considers you as a

00:39:02.220 now considers you as

00:39:03.740 offensive material good

00:39:05.280 stuff Matt fight the

00:39:06.340 power yeah most of the

00:39:08.120 comments actually I can't

00:39:10.040 I can't do a full reading

00:39:11.100 the comments segment

00:39:13.100 today because almost all

00:39:14.080 the comments are about

00:39:14.880 the fact that um youtube

00:39:16.520 censored our show

00:39:17.380 yesterday which they did

00:39:18.580 I don't know if they're

00:39:20.660 maybe they're doing it to

00:39:21.640 this show too I don't

00:39:22.340 know but they censored the

00:39:23.540 show yesterday so that

00:39:24.600 they put a parental

00:39:25.400 advisory on and you had

00:39:27.620 to sign in in order to

00:39:28.700 watch the show and then

00:39:29.840 you had to click through

00:39:30.480 another advisory warning

00:39:31.680 of offensive content and

00:39:33.040 you also couldn't share

00:39:33.800 they they took with a

00:39:34.640 share function so you

00:39:35.420 couldn't share the show

00:39:36.120 what is their reason for

00:39:38.580 doing it they didn't give

00:39:39.660 a reason as far as I

00:39:41.180 know um what I will say

00:39:45.340 is number one they

00:39:46.460 censored the show before

00:39:47.920 it even went on before it

00:39:49.900 even went live they had

00:39:50.920 censored it already we can

00:39:55.040 only speculate and I will

00:39:56.620 say that the topic of the

00:39:57.680 show yesterday which if

00:39:58.840 you missed because of all

00:39:59.780 the censorship and

00:40:00.380 everything I would hope

00:40:01.160 that you go back and

00:40:01.780 watch it after this show

00:40:02.740 because it's an important

00:40:03.840 topic we talked about the

00:40:04.660 Ashley Babbitt shooting

00:40:05.580 and the fact that we

00:40:07.880 aren't being told anything

00:40:08.680 about the Ashley Babbitt

00:40:09.600 shooting and she was

00:40:10.820 killed by an unnamed

00:40:12.080 federal officer in the

00:40:13.940 capital and we haven't

00:40:15.320 been told why we haven't

00:40:16.240 been told who shot her

00:40:17.140 we haven't been told his

00:40:18.500 name or anything about

00:40:19.140 him that's what the the

00:40:21.460 title was about that's

00:40:22.340 what the opening monologue

00:40:23.060 was about and um

00:40:24.380 youtube for whatever

00:40:25.940 reason doesn't want you

00:40:27.560 to hear that and yeah we

00:40:30.680 did we played the clip

00:40:32.100 we played the video of

00:40:33.240 Ashley Babbitt getting

00:40:34.320 shot it's upsetting it's

00:40:35.820 not graphic you don't see

00:40:36.880 anything that's graphic

00:40:37.560 but it's it's upsetting

00:40:38.400 maybe that's the excuse

00:40:40.700 they would give is oh

00:40:41.840 well you you know you

00:40:42.460 played a upsetting

00:40:43.720 violent content on the

00:40:45.560 show yeah well a few

00:40:47.800 days before that we

00:40:48.620 played the the video of

00:40:50.460 Dante Wright getting shot

00:40:51.400 and they didn't censor

00:40:52.020 that um Sophia says

00:40:55.980 Matt I saw someone

00:40:56.840 riding a skateboard on

00:40:57.940 the main road not even

00:40:59.060 off to the side and

00:41:00.180 wearing a mask I thought

00:41:02.160 of you and wondered

00:41:02.720 what you would say about

00:41:03.660 it well he's got his

00:41:04.640 priorities straight you

00:41:05.780 know safety safety first

00:41:07.240 he's skateboarding on the

00:41:09.200 main road where he could

00:41:11.260 easily get hit by a car

00:41:12.240 but at least he's got the

00:41:13.480 mask on you know because

00:41:15.980 when you're skateboarding in

00:41:16.900 the middle of the road the

00:41:18.600 number one thing that

00:41:19.440 might kill you is a virus

00:41:20.820 so I wouldn't yeah I

00:41:23.540 wouldn't make fun of that

00:41:24.140 at all he's just he's got

00:41:24.920 his priorities straight

00:41:25.640 um finally Sarah says

00:41:29.060 hey Matt it's awesome

00:41:29.900 you're so willing to

00:41:30.680 redact any false

00:41:31.680 information you may

00:41:32.620 accidentally put out

00:41:33.340 there I thought I'd let

00:41:34.000 you know that you

00:41:35.200 slipped up again today

00:41:36.180 the earth actually is

00:41:37.380 flat I'll let you decide

00:41:38.460 if you think I'm joking

00:41:39.180 or not cancel me if you

00:41:40.620 must the thing is Sarah

00:41:41.500 I think you're joking

00:41:43.420 but I can never be too

00:41:44.740 sure these days I have

00:41:47.320 in the past managed to

00:41:50.080 upset the flat earth

00:41:51.100 community which is how I

00:41:53.000 discovered that there is

00:41:53.980 actually a flat earth

00:41:54.920 community and that's what

00:41:58.260 I really and that's what

00:41:59.140 I realized whatever little

00:42:00.960 it was at that moment that

00:42:02.060 whatever little faith in

00:42:02.880 humanity I had left was

00:42:03.880 obliterated and a full

00:42:06.500 cynicism and pessimism

00:42:07.660 pessimism from that day on

00:42:08.900 and I realized that no no

00:42:11.760 idea is too stupid for

00:42:13.240 people these days so I hope

00:42:16.360 you're joking but who knows

00:42:17.240 you know we have some

00:42:18.360 really great mattress

00:42:19.360 sponsors on the show that

00:42:20.580 I tell you about and and

00:42:22.140 we all know that good

00:42:23.180 mattresses are important

00:42:24.200 because you spend so much

00:42:26.140 time in them well if you're

00:42:27.340 a parent you might not

00:42:27.920 spend a lot of time in

00:42:28.620 them but you still spend a

00:42:29.240 good amount of time in

00:42:30.400 them and and that's why you

00:42:31.880 need to make sure you're

00:42:32.600 sleeping well well you think

00:42:34.700 about your mattress what

00:43:44.040 you know yesterday's troubling

00:43:45.900 events with Twitter and

00:43:47.060 Project Veritas should concern

00:43:48.760 everyone how they got you

00:43:50.900 know banished from Twitter

00:43:52.040 basically for exposing CNN

00:43:53.560 it's become easier and easier

00:43:55.320 for big tech to silence people

00:43:56.960 they view as problematic and

00:43:58.700 this problem is going to get

00:44:00.140 worse before it gets better a

00:44:01.200 lot worse this is one of the

00:44:02.320 principal reasons why the

00:44:03.220 daily wire has become has

00:44:04.580 decided to embrace a

00:44:05.680 membership based business

00:44:07.200 model we can't become

00:44:08.600 reliant on big tech we've got

00:44:10.160 to we've got to be doing our

00:44:11.420 own thing that's what this is

00:44:12.380 all about each new member

00:44:13.520 who joins us makes us a

00:44:14.600 little bit less dependent on

00:44:18.560 way to ensure that daily

00:44:19.560 wire can continue to grow and

00:44:22.780 you're already a daily wire

00:44:23.700 member thank you we

00:44:25.160 appreciate you and if you're

00:44:51.080 everybody involved in this

00:44:52.580 monstrosity literal monstrosity

00:44:54.860 NPR has the story it says for

00:44:56.320 the first time scientists have

00:44:57.500 created embryos that are a

00:44:59.600 mix of human and monkey

00:45:00.860 cells the embryos described

00:45:02.760 Thursday in the journal cell

00:45:04.100 were created in part to try to

00:45:05.520 find new ways to produce organs

00:45:07.360 for people who need

00:45:08.620 transplants according to the

00:45:10.840 international team of

00:45:11.560 scientists who collaborated in

00:45:12.920 the work okay now you might

00:45:14.560 feel concerned about any

00:45:16.220 scientific endeavor that was

00:45:17.420 borrowed from the screenplay

00:45:18.560 for the planet of the apes but

00:45:20.240 no worries scientists and

00:45:22.160 bioethicists say that it's all

00:45:23.760 good this is all above board it's

00:45:25.640 quite ethical the article

00:45:27.460 continues quote the scientists

00:45:28.720 who conducted the research and

00:45:29.940 some other bioethicists defend the

00:45:31.440 experiment quote this is one of

00:45:34.020 the major problems in medicine

00:45:35.320 organ transplantation that

00:45:37.280 according to Juan Carlos is

00:45:39.480 Pesua Belmonte a professor in

00:45:42.640 the gene expression laboratory of

00:45:44.100 the Salk Institute for

00:45:45.120 Biological Sciences in La

00:45:46.540 Hoya California and a co-author

00:45:48.540 of the cell study he said the

00:45:50.360 demand for that is much higher

00:45:51.640 than supply another bioethicist

00:45:54.440 in so young says I don't see this

00:45:56.680 type of research being ethically

00:45:57.920 problematic it's aimed at lofty

00:46:00.340 humanitarian goals thousands of

00:46:03.180 people die every year in the

00:46:04.100 United States waiting for an organ

00:46:05.300 transplant young noted so in

00:46:07.280 recent years some researchers in

00:46:08.420 the US and beyond have have been

00:46:09.940 injecting human stem cells into

00:46:11.700 sheep and pig embryos to see if

00:46:13.620 they might eventually grow human

00:46:14.920 organs in such animals for

00:46:17.100 transplantation but so far the

00:46:19.300 approach hasn't worked so Belmont

00:46:20.960 teamed up with scientists in China

00:46:22.440 and elsewhere to try to try

00:46:23.500 something different the

00:46:24.260 researchers injected 25 cells known

00:46:26.880 as induced pluripotent stem cells

00:46:29.820 from humans commonly called IPS

00:46:31.660 cells into embryos from monkeys which

00:46:34.760 are much more closely genetically

00:46:36.260 related to humans than our sheep and

00:46:37.600 pigs after one day the research is

00:46:39.560 reported they were able to detect

00:46:41.040 human cells growing in 132 of the

00:46:43.300 embryos were able to study the

00:46:45.320 embryos for up to 19 days that

00:46:47.620 enabled the scientists to learn more

00:46:48.860 about how human cells and human

00:46:50.020 cells communicate how animal cells

00:46:52.360 and human cells communicate an

00:46:53.320 important step towards eventually

00:46:54.960 helping researchers find new ways to

00:46:57.040 grow organs for transplantation okay

00:46:58.880 probably gave you more of that

00:47:01.520 article than I need to the only good

00:47:03.080 news here is that this must be the

00:47:06.160 thing that will cause the aliens to

00:47:07.880 finally intervene by vaporizing our

00:47:09.680 planet I mean this has got to be it

00:47:11.140 but before we're all rightly killed or

00:47:13.660 enslaved for our collective crimes

00:47:15.140 it's worth reflecting on this can it be

00:47:18.520 ethically justified to create a half

00:47:20.840 monkey half human Frankenstein

00:47:23.360 monster if the end goal or one of the

00:47:25.780 end goals is to harvest its parts in

00:47:28.720 order to extend our own lives that's the

00:47:31.920 question the answer to that question

00:47:34.300 is no and also what the hell is wrong

00:47:38.260 with you I wouldn't call this even an

00:47:41.440 ethical dilemma or an ethical

00:47:43.040 controversy there's no controversy

00:47:44.940 because this doesn't approach the realm

00:47:47.000 of morally permissible behavior it is a

00:47:50.460 clear-cut case of science going way way

00:47:52.720 way too far in the words actually of

00:47:56.040 dr. Ian Malcolm of Jurassic Park your

00:47:58.860 scientists were so preoccupied with

00:48:00.620 whether or not they could they didn't

00:48:02.380 stop to think if they should if they

00:48:04.140 should and yes in this case they

00:48:05.700 shouldn't the problem is that while I

00:48:09.060 can say that this is wrong and perhaps

00:48:12.000 you can say that it's wrong our society

00:48:15.060 in general doesn't really have any

00:48:16.780 ethical leg or monkey's paw to stand

00:48:18.920 on here what we're dealing with here is

00:48:21.360 the commodification of human life in its

00:48:24.160 most extreme form or the most extreme

00:48:26.360 form we've seen so far more yet to come

00:48:28.320 I'm sure scientists are literally

00:48:30.400 creating life in a petri dish to use it

00:48:33.260 as a product as a good as something to be

00:48:36.340 used it is life as commodity but it's

00:48:40.280 only the latest innovation in that space

00:48:42.600 right we've been treating human life as

00:48:44.940 a commodity for a long time we live in a

00:48:46.760 country after all where human embryos are

00:48:49.180 created and then stored like leftover

00:48:51.100 ground beef in a freezer if they aren't

00:48:53.820 wanted they're just destroyed even

00:48:56.700 children conceived naturally in the

00:48:58.960 mother's womb if they're not wanted are

00:49:01.060 destroyed and sometimes harvested for

00:49:03.640 parts as we discovered with Planned

00:49:06.020 Parenthood now if that's how we view

00:49:09.200 human life as something lacking inherent

00:49:12.440 value and beauty and which only has

00:49:15.060 value if it's useful to us then sure why

00:49:17.360 not make the monkey people and start

00:49:19.020 cutting off pieces of them I'll take a

00:49:21.940 spleen actually just as a backup in

00:49:23.440 case I don't you know in case I need

00:49:24.560 one see the precedent's already been set

00:49:27.060 and that's the problem that's what

00:49:29.020 concerns me one other thought here to

00:49:32.200 share and this is a cheerful thought for

00:49:33.900 the day a good note to end on I think

00:49:35.920 something I've said before but I think

00:49:38.520 probably I need to keep saying and it is

00:49:41.100 this you are doomed you will die right

00:49:47.960 now as we speak the cause of your death

00:49:52.040 is probably out there lurking waiting

00:49:55.100 for you it might be in you might be in

00:49:58.060 your cells it might be in your heart or

00:50:00.100 your liver dormant the clock is ticking or

00:50:04.640 it might be someone down the street some

00:50:06.700 guy sitting in his office right now making

00:50:08.440 plans for the future but in six months

00:50:10.480 he's going to run through an

00:50:11.480 intersection and t-bone you and you will

00:50:13.700 die and so will he could be the point

00:50:17.500 is you're marked your death warrant is

00:50:20.720 signed you will die and then everyone

00:50:22.360 you know will die and soon the world

00:50:23.960 will be free of any trace of you and

00:50:25.660 you'll be forgotten and everything you

00:50:27.320 ever did or thought or said or felt will

00:50:28.840 be vapor and ash at least in this

00:50:30.780 physical world what's my point my point

00:50:34.960 is happy Friday but also there have to

00:50:37.920 be limits to the lengths we will go to

00:50:40.060 extend our short finite fragile little

00:50:42.880 lives it can't be that literally

00:50:45.400 anything that extends life is acceptable

00:50:47.420 and good the effort is so fundamentally

00:50:50.500 futile in any case that doesn't mean

00:50:52.800 that we should be suicidal or that we

00:50:54.260 shouldn't value life quite the opposite

00:50:55.900 we should value it immensely as we have so

00:50:58.220 little of it and for such a short while

00:51:00.300 but if we throw ethics and dignity out the

00:51:02.740 window just to cling on to our mortal

00:51:04.240 frames for a few more moments is that

00:51:06.760 trade really worth it and if we

00:51:09.540 ironically devalue human life in an

00:51:12.760 effort to extend human life how can that

00:51:16.480 trade be worth it we have destroyed the

00:51:19.220 worth of the very thing we want to

00:51:20.700 extend for the sake of extending it

00:51:23.120 doesn't make sense so live your life

00:51:26.860 take reasonable precautions go to

00:51:30.000 reasonable lengths to protect yourself

00:51:31.920 treat your maladies extend your existence

00:51:33.940 but we can't throw the baby out with the

00:51:36.280 bathwater we can't throw out our

00:51:38.700 dignity and value in an effort to

00:51:40.360 abolish our mortality because the latter

00:51:42.100 we cannot do in the end we'll have

00:51:44.820 given up what makes life beautiful and

00:51:46.480 good and we'll still die anyway just

00:51:48.680 without the comfort of knowing that we

00:51:49.800 had lived with dignity

00:51:50.600 so look if you wanted to be cheered up

00:51:54.620 you came to the wrong place

00:51:55.660 if you wanted to be reminded that you are

00:51:58.980 canceled one way or another eventually

00:52:01.000 then you came to the right place

00:52:02.740 so with that in mind i hope you have a

00:52:06.000 great um and uh joyful weekend and we'll

00:52:11.040 leave it there have a good day godspeed
