The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 872 - The Worst Scandal In History That No One Is Talking About

00:00:00.000 Today on The Matt Wall Show, more information has come out about what could quite possibly be the biggest scandal in history, and yet it's treated as a minor sideshow at best.

00:00:09.180 Also, Kamala Harris thoroughly embarrasses herself on camera. We're used to that by now, but this one is pretty bad, even by her standards.

00:00:15.880 And an Australian politician puts out what is accidentally the most racist video you will ever see.

00:00:21.080 It also happens to be totally hilarious. And a doctor brags publicly about refusing to take her injured son to the doctor for fear of COVID.

00:00:28.820 But finally, in our daily cancellation, I will go toe-to-toe with every anti-Johnny the Walrus video on YouTube.

00:00:34.920 There are a bunch of them, and we're canceling all of them today on The Matt Wall Show.

00:00:47.460 The pro-life movement must maintain its momentum now more than ever.

00:00:51.200 And what better way to help than by supporting the charities and causes that you care about, even if the Supreme Court were to strike down Roe v. Wade?

00:00:57.320 Abortion will still exist in America, across the country.

00:01:00.620 Charity Mobile is the pro-life phone company.

00:01:02.360 They partner with you to automatically support the pro-life, pro-family charities of your choice with 5% of your monthly plan price.

00:01:08.560 And they've sent millions of dollars to charities so far, and they're going to send millions more this year.

00:01:13.440 New activations and eligible accounts get a free cell phone with free activation and free shipping.

00:01:17.140 When you mention offer code Walsh, certain restrictions apply.

00:01:19.920 Charity Mobile makes it easy to switch.

00:01:21.520 You can just keep your existing phone number, and you might even be able to keep your existing phone.

00:01:25.980 All of their monthly plans include unlimited domestic minutes and messages, which can be shared by up to eight lines on a family plan.

00:01:32.660 There are no contracts, there are no termination fees, and there's no risk with their 30-day guarantee.

00:01:37.460 Great live customer support and great nationwide coverage on America's most reliable network.

00:01:42.820 You get all of that if you switch to Charity Mobile and support the causes you care about.

00:01:46.180 Call them at 1-877-474-3662 or chat with them online at charitymobile.com and mention offer code Walsh.

00:01:52.640 So one of the consequences of living in a civilization gone mad is that our collective priorities tend to be out of balance and confused, reflecting in general the state of things.

00:02:03.480 It doesn't help that we're bombarded with a never-ending onslaught of information, misinformation, disinformation.

00:02:09.040 It's hard to follow one particular ball when there are a million being thrown at you all at once, every day, forever, and always.

00:02:16.180 The result is that some of the most important stories of our time are either ignored or treated as merely one bouncing ball among many.

00:02:25.340 And often there are very powerful forces working to ensure that we don't spend too much time focusing on it.

00:02:31.220 That brings us to the story of COVID's origins, how it was formed, how it ended up in the population,

00:02:39.020 and the apparently global cover-up designed to distract from these questions and obscure the answers.

00:02:44.280 It all amounts to, quite easily, one of the greatest scandals in the history of the world.

00:02:50.160 That's not an exaggeration.

00:02:52.000 Perhaps, in fact, the greatest scandal.

00:02:54.420 Yet, it's hardly discussed.

00:02:56.940 And nobody, not one person anywhere, has been held accountable for it.

00:03:00.900 The truth is out there, as they say.

00:03:03.380 The information is available, but nothing comes from it.

00:03:06.200 One of history's great scandals, and it lands with a thud and a yawn somehow.

00:03:10.780 So here's the latest, more details, that should be breaking news everywhere, reported with big screaming headlines.

00:03:18.660 But instead, it's been largely ignored, except for some outlets, including the Blaze, which reports this.

00:03:25.420 Quote, new information from previously redacted emails confirms that scientists consulting with government officials

00:03:31.500 believe that the COVID-19 lab leak origins hypothesis was not only possible, but perhaps even likely

00:03:38.020 before Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins worked to denounce the theory as a conspiracy.

00:03:43.700 In a letter to the head of the Department of Health and Human Services,

00:03:47.060 House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Representative Jim Jordan

00:03:49.900 and Committee on Oversight and Reform Ranking Members Representative James Comer

00:03:54.400 revealed the text of redacted emails from February 2020, that's February 2020,

00:04:00.480 very back way at the beginning, in which prominent public health scientists

00:04:04.480 discussed the origin of COVID-19 with Fauci and Collins.

00:04:08.300 Okay, now we already knew from previously released emails

00:04:10.920 that many of the leading scientists, virologists, epidemiologists in the world

00:04:16.100 suspected early on that this virus was engineered in a Chinese lab.

00:04:20.680 Now, that was also obvious to any common-sense person based simply on the fact that it came out of Wuhan,

00:04:26.720 right where a virus lab happened to be situated.

00:04:30.260 Now, that's not conclusive proof in and of itself, but if you see smoke and then you also see fire,

00:04:37.380 it probably is safe to assume that the smoke is coming from the fire.

00:04:40.900 But the scientists who looked at this had more than just common-sense assumptions to go on.

00:04:46.260 They inspected the virus itself and they could tell based on its features

00:04:50.060 that it probably didn't come from a bowl of bat soup.

00:04:54.700 Yet many of these very same scientists changed their tune rather suddenly

00:04:59.360 and began denouncing the lab leak theory that they themselves had speculated about.

00:05:04.640 Now, we already knew all of that.

00:05:06.140 Now we get to the newest revelations.

00:05:07.780 The new details reveal that Dr. Fauci was warned of two things.

00:05:13.820 One, the potential that COVID-19 leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

00:05:18.180 And two, the possibility that the virus was intentionally genetically manipulated, lawmakers wrote.

00:05:23.780 According to the transcripts released by GOP staff,

00:05:26.420 both Collins, the former director of the National Institute of Health,

00:05:29.980 and Fauci, the current director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases,

00:05:33.740 were told by prominent scientists that the lab leak origin of COVID-19 was scientifically plausible.

00:05:40.000 Now, there are a bunch of emails, but one of the most important is from a guy named Dr. Jeremy Farrar

00:05:44.540 to Fauci, Francis Collins, and another NIH official named Lawrence Tabic.

00:05:49.100 And this is summarizing a conference call involving all of these men.

00:05:54.660 The blaze says, quote,

00:05:57.140 Farrar noted that Dr. Michael Farzan, a Scripps research professor of immunology

00:06:02.060 and the discoverer of SARS receptor, was, quote, bothered by the furin site

00:06:06.640 and has a hard time explaining that as an event outside the lab.

00:06:11.140 The furin site is part of the cell, and I mean, it's scientific stuff I don't understand.

00:06:15.040 I don't need to understand it.

00:06:15.940 It says the email is referring to the furin cleavage site of the COVID-19 virus spike protein,

00:06:22.840 a unique feature of the virus that makes it infectious.

00:06:25.460 He said that this evidence means it's highly unlikely that the virus developed naturally.

00:06:30.900 A different scientist on the same call, a microbiologist,

00:06:34.580 said that there was, quote, no plausible natural scenario.

00:06:38.440 No plausible natural scenario for this virus to go from bats to humans.

00:06:42.700 And yet, as the blaze reports, quote,

00:06:46.600 Regardless of these arguments, Collins wrote back to Farrar, Fauci, and Tabic later that day

00:06:51.940 that he was, quote,

00:06:53.400 coming around to the view that a natural origin is more likely,

00:06:56.940 appearing to agree with arguments presented by Ron Focciar,

00:07:00.640 a Dutch scientist that famously authored a controversial gain-of-function study,

00:07:04.420 and Christian Drosgen, Germany's leading COVID-19 expert.

00:07:08.140 Focciar, in a February 2nd email thanking conference call participants for having the meeting,

00:07:13.740 referred to the lab leak hypothesis as a conspiracy theory and said it would, quote,

00:07:18.560 need to be supported by strong data beyond a reasonable doubt.

00:07:22.720 Quote, it's good that this possibility was discussed to detail with a team of experts.

00:07:26.420 However, further debate about such accusations would unnecessarily distract top researchers

00:07:30.900 from their active duties and do unnecessary harm to science in general and science in China in particular.

00:07:39.040 Collins said that he agreed with Farrar's view that, quote,

00:07:41.880 a swift convening of experts in a confidence-inspiring framework is needed,

00:07:46.700 or the voices of conspiracy will quickly dominate doing great potential harm to science

00:07:51.860 and to international harmony.

00:07:54.900 Wait, do harm to science?

00:07:57.420 What does that mean?

00:07:58.100 Science is a process for understanding the natural world.

00:08:02.840 How can it be harmed?

00:08:05.200 And especially, how can the truth harm it?

00:08:09.020 Saying that the truth harms science, it's like saying love harms a marriage.

00:08:14.080 It makes no sense.

00:08:14.820 And as for damaging international harmony,

00:08:18.200 one might think that the damage to international harmony was done by the country

00:08:21.560 that released a virus onto the globe that killed millions of people.

00:08:24.560 At any rate, Collins and Fauci continued to discuss ways to suppress the lab leak hypothesis,

00:08:31.340 a hypothesis that they knew was at the very least plausible.

00:08:35.560 They both went on publicly to denounce it as a crazy, possibly racist conspiracy theory.

00:08:40.940 The corporate media picked up this line, as did many high-ranking elected Democrats.

00:08:45.180 Social media platforms started banning accounts that mentioned the possibility

00:08:48.340 that the virus came from a lab.

00:08:49.900 All of this happened, even though, as we know now,

00:08:54.640 some of the leading scientists in the world, scientists that Fauci worked with,

00:08:58.800 knew from the beginning that it likely came from a lab.

00:09:03.360 So there was, we know now, a conspiracy to cover this up.

00:09:06.720 Fauci and Collins ran cover for the Chinese government.

00:09:09.280 And they had a lot of help in that effort.

00:09:12.760 So to review and recap, the most plausible version of events,

00:09:16.320 based on the information currently available to us,

00:09:19.040 is that a virus was engineered in a Chinese lab.

00:09:24.560 It left the lab.

00:09:26.040 I mean, we talk about lab leak, and that assumes that it was done accidentally.

00:09:29.360 We certainly don't know that.

00:09:31.500 Whether accidentally or intentionally, it left the lab.

00:09:35.060 Many millions of people died as a result.

00:09:37.200 Meanwhile, our public health authorities conspired to suppress the truth of its origin

00:09:42.640 and defame and slander anyone who spoke up about it

00:09:46.040 and censor and deplatform them.

00:09:51.140 This is like, this is, this is Chernobyl times a thousand.

00:09:57.860 In another world, at another time,

00:10:00.280 this would all be treated as the biggest story on the planet.

00:10:03.980 The media would report on it every single day.

00:10:06.660 There would be hearings and trials and tribunals.

00:10:10.000 Fauci would already be under arrest.

00:10:13.180 China would be the subject of a global investigative effort

00:10:16.140 to figure out exactly what it did and why it did it.

00:10:19.080 It would face reprisals and punishments for killing 5 million people.

00:10:24.340 There'd be something like the Nuremberg trials happening right now.

00:10:27.140 Instead, nobody's held accountable for anything.

00:10:29.620 And our biggest concern with respect to China

00:10:32.460 is ensuring that nobody says anything

00:10:34.000 that might provide, you know, provoke anti-Asian sentiment.

00:10:40.120 This is not a serious time and we are not a serious country.

00:10:43.820 But it's a serious scandal.

00:10:45.940 Maybe the most serious

00:10:47.100 ever in history

00:10:49.020 despite how it's treated.

00:10:51.220 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:12:21.760 So I want to jump in

00:12:22.800 right away with this

00:12:23.640 because it is simply fantastic.

00:12:26.400 Really, it's one of my favorite videos

00:12:28.280 of all time.

00:12:30.180 This kind of brilliant comedy

00:12:31.680 is what you might have gotten

00:12:34.340 from a comedy show like SNL

00:12:36.080 back when comedy was still legal.

00:12:38.160 Now we have to settle for

00:12:39.400 getting our comedy from real life.

00:12:41.040 So here is Western Australian

00:12:44.220 Premier Mark McGowan.

00:12:46.140 He has recorded a video

00:12:48.040 where he's trying to communicate

00:12:49.160 some basic things about COVID

00:12:51.760 to the Aboriginal community

00:12:53.940 in the area.

00:12:55.800 And so he's decided to begin with

00:12:58.220 speak very, very slowly

00:12:59.520 using small words

00:13:02.080 so that they can understand him.

00:13:04.380 But he's even hired

00:13:05.480 an Aboriginal elder

00:13:06.740 to translate for him

00:13:08.660 in real time.

00:13:10.360 And the results are

00:13:11.560 truly extraordinary.

00:13:13.920 Let's watch.

00:13:14.500 important message

00:13:17.080 to keep Aboriginal people safe.

00:13:20.920 And the message

00:13:21.920 is probably important one

00:13:25.140 to keep everybody

00:13:26.580 safe one.

00:13:29.220 You can die from the corona

00:13:31.160 or get really sick.

00:13:34.560 You can pass away

00:13:36.680 from this corona

00:13:38.180 or you can get

00:13:40.100 really sick one.

00:13:41.260 It's time to get

00:13:43.740 the corona needle

00:13:44.640 to keep people

00:13:45.880 and country strong.

00:13:48.860 It's time to get

00:13:52.180 them this needle

00:13:52.920 to keep all the people

00:13:57.680 and country

00:13:59.180 proper strong one.

00:14:02.100 The corona needle

00:14:03.140 will protect kids,

00:14:04.780 old people,

00:14:05.860 men and women.

00:14:06.440 Well,

00:14:11.040 the young corona needle

00:14:12.140 got to keep

00:14:13.880 a safe one

00:14:15.400 for all the kids

00:14:17.200 and for all the men

00:14:18.960 and women.

00:14:20.120 Okay.

00:14:20.440 Many people around the world.

00:14:22.580 Sorry,

00:14:23.220 I didn't understand

00:14:24.060 any of that.

00:14:24.540 I need it translated

00:14:25.260 into American English.

00:14:27.120 We need a third

00:14:28.040 translator there.

00:14:29.060 Actually,

00:14:29.440 I did understand it.

00:14:30.660 In fact,

00:14:31.040 I guess the big news here

00:14:32.620 is I learned

00:14:33.560 just now

00:14:34.440 that I speak

00:14:35.360 Aboriginal Australian.

00:14:36.440 So I am bilingual.

00:14:38.260 That's good news.

00:14:39.840 Why not just have her,

00:14:41.320 if you're going to do this,

00:14:43.940 which you shouldn't

00:14:44.940 in the first place,

00:14:45.640 but why not just have her

00:14:46.960 alone

00:14:47.600 giving this address

00:14:49.520 if you really feel

00:14:52.180 that it's necessary?

00:14:53.080 Like,

00:14:53.280 why do you need

00:14:53.900 to be in the video too?

00:14:56.000 You can tell

00:14:56.740 that she's actually

00:14:57.420 having trouble

00:14:58.340 saying it differently.

00:15:00.260 So that's where

00:15:01.260 she's struggling

00:15:01.860 as a translator.

00:15:03.400 Usually,

00:15:03.820 I guess,

00:15:04.200 the challenge

00:15:04.840 is to,

00:15:05.480 you know,

00:15:06.020 translate it correctly,

00:15:06.900 but in this case,

00:15:08.400 she's like looking

00:15:09.080 at the words

00:15:09.960 and she's trying

00:15:10.780 to think,

00:15:11.160 how am I supposed

00:15:11.540 to say it differently

00:15:12.180 from what you already

00:15:12.940 just said?

00:15:14.260 So she just puts

00:15:14.860 the word one

00:15:15.500 after everything

00:15:16.020 she says.

00:15:18.460 But,

00:15:19.040 so if you're going

00:15:19.380 to do it,

00:15:19.900 just have her along.

00:15:21.120 Better yet,

00:15:22.540 don't do it at all

00:15:23.860 because this is,

00:15:26.460 this is truly racist

00:15:28.880 by definition

00:15:29.940 and I hate

00:15:31.140 to engage

00:15:32.380 in the whole

00:15:33.160 the left

00:15:35.020 are the real

00:15:35.540 racist thing,

00:15:37.140 but,

00:15:38.420 but actually

00:15:39.340 they are,

00:15:40.460 right?

00:15:41.140 I mean,

00:15:41.400 it's true.

00:15:43.040 It's true

00:15:43.740 because the definition

00:15:45.140 of racism

00:15:45.820 is,

00:15:47.600 and it does have

00:15:48.540 an actual definition.

00:15:49.460 it's got nothing

00:15:51.480 to do with

00:15:52.120 what we hear

00:15:52.600 the critical race

00:15:53.320 theory proponents

00:15:54.100 it's power

00:15:55.000 plus privilege

00:15:55.980 and all that's got

00:15:56.560 nothing to do

00:15:56.880 with any of that.

00:15:58.340 Racism is actually

00:15:59.000 a very simple thing.

00:15:59.740 Racism is

00:16:00.640 the belief

00:16:02.840 that a certain

00:16:04.460 race of people

00:16:05.220 are inferior

00:16:06.120 to you

00:16:06.760 because of their race.

00:16:09.020 So it's not even

00:16:09.860 a belief that

00:16:10.360 an individual person

00:16:11.440 of another race

00:16:12.160 is inferior to you.

00:16:13.520 That could be a rude

00:16:14.460 thing to think

00:16:15.080 or say,

00:16:16.100 but it's the belief

00:16:17.880 that an entire race

00:16:19.120 because of their race

00:16:19.920 are inferior to yourself.

00:16:21.780 That's racism.

00:16:23.540 Like anything else,

00:16:24.740 there are a lot

00:16:25.160 of other

00:16:25.640 things that you

00:16:27.600 can think

00:16:28.160 and things you

00:16:28.680 can say

00:16:29.040 that are rude

00:16:29.720 and not nice

00:16:30.600 but aren't racist.

00:16:32.400 That's what racism is.

00:16:35.180 And so

00:16:35.860 we see how

00:16:37.020 in fact,

00:16:38.440 really,

00:16:38.960 the left

00:16:39.420 actually are the real

00:16:40.240 races because

00:16:40.680 this is how they feel.

00:16:43.660 This guy,

00:16:44.520 what's this guy's name again?

00:16:45.260 Mark McGowan.

00:16:46.880 He looks at

00:16:47.940 the Aboriginal people

00:16:49.080 as clearly

00:16:50.360 like children.

00:16:52.980 And so

00:16:53.220 rather than speaking

00:16:54.100 to them

00:16:54.640 like adults

00:16:55.480 and saying

00:16:56.400 what he would say

00:16:57.080 to everybody else

00:16:57.940 is to slow down.

00:17:00.600 I mean,

00:17:00.880 they speak English.

00:17:01.920 That's the point here.

00:17:03.120 But he's got to slow down,

00:17:04.060 use very small words

00:17:05.060 and then have someone

00:17:06.760 next to him

00:17:07.280 translating it

00:17:08.220 into sort of

00:17:09.620 colloquial

00:17:10.240 vernacular.

00:17:13.260 That is,

00:17:14.120 you believe

00:17:14.740 that they're inferior

00:17:15.340 to you

00:17:15.840 and this is what

00:17:17.140 we always get

00:17:17.600 from the left.

00:17:20.560 From these

00:17:21.420 white knight,

00:17:22.580 white leftists,

00:17:23.700 they think

00:17:24.300 that other races,

00:17:25.940 they take this

00:17:26.720 paternalistic pose

00:17:28.120 and they treat

00:17:29.500 other races

00:17:30.300 as though

00:17:31.280 they're all

00:17:32.280 a bunch of children.

00:17:36.040 Whereas the

00:17:36.980 non-racist

00:17:38.480 point of view

00:17:39.660 is to say,

00:17:41.520 is to just hold

00:17:42.160 everyone to

00:17:42.560 the same

00:17:42.820 standard.

00:17:44.280 Have the same

00:17:45.020 expectations

00:17:45.560 for everybody.

00:17:47.540 I don't care

00:17:48.100 what race you are.

00:17:48.880 I mean,

00:17:48.980 if we all speak

00:17:49.440 English,

00:17:49.760 you should be

00:17:50.060 able to

00:17:50.240 understand

00:17:50.480 English.

00:17:52.080 Even if it's

00:17:52.720 not in your,

00:17:54.380 we all have

00:17:55.000 our own

00:17:55.360 colloquial

00:17:55.800 kind of way

00:17:56.200 of speaking,

00:17:56.840 but you should

00:17:57.320 be able to

00:17:57.660 understand

00:17:57.960 English

00:17:58.480 that isn't

00:17:59.760 couched

00:18:00.580 in your own

00:18:00.940 colloquial

00:18:01.280 language

00:18:01.760 or vernacular.

00:18:05.560 That's the

00:18:06.040 expectation

00:18:06.440 I have

00:18:06.900 for everybody.

00:18:09.640 That's why

00:18:10.140 I'm against

00:18:10.500 affirmative action.

00:18:12.200 Have the same

00:18:13.000 expectation

00:18:13.460 for everybody.

00:18:13.840 Hold everyone

00:18:14.160 to the same

00:18:14.500 standard.

00:18:15.220 I don't care

00:18:15.600 what race

00:18:15.960 you are.

00:18:16.920 Here's the

00:18:17.360 standard.

00:18:18.380 Here's what

00:18:18.680 we're looking

00:18:19.040 for based

00:18:19.600 on the

00:18:19.900 merits.

00:18:21.600 And whatever

00:18:21.920 race you are,

00:18:22.440 there's no

00:18:22.660 reason why

00:18:23.200 you can't

00:18:24.500 live up to

00:18:26.260 that standard.

00:18:26.580 There's no

00:18:26.780 reason why

00:18:27.120 you can't

00:18:27.780 get over

00:18:28.080 that bar.

00:18:28.880 And if you

00:18:29.360 can't,

00:18:29.700 then you

00:18:30.120 don't deserve

00:18:30.520 to get

00:18:30.840 hired for

00:18:31.220 the position

00:18:31.620 or to go

00:18:32.120 to that

00:18:32.340 school or

00:18:32.660 whatever it

00:18:32.980 is.

00:18:36.180 So this

00:18:36.780 is,

00:18:37.420 if you're

00:18:37.700 a white

00:18:38.000 leftist,

00:18:38.500 I mean,

00:18:38.740 it's really

00:18:39.300 a,

00:18:39.800 members of

00:18:44.280 the other

00:18:44.560 race,

00:18:45.240 you take a

00:18:45.900 paternalistic

00:18:46.380 view,

00:18:46.640 they're

00:18:46.760 inferior to

00:18:47.300 you.

00:18:48.600 And then

00:18:49.140 members of

00:18:49.520 your own

00:18:49.820 race,

00:18:50.160 you hate

00:18:50.400 them also.

00:18:50.940 So it's

00:18:53.560 just,

00:18:53.820 it's just

00:18:54.160 racism and

00:18:55.080 hatred and

00:18:55.800 resentment

00:18:57.280 sprayed in

00:18:59.720 all directions

00:19:00.420 towards

00:19:00.880 everybody.

00:19:02.660 All right,

00:19:03.260 let's move

00:19:03.860 to Kamala

00:19:04.360 Harris on

00:19:04.920 NBC.

00:19:05.660 Here she

00:19:06.020 is,

00:19:06.260 a couple

00:19:06.480 clips here,

00:19:07.440 before we

00:19:07.760 get to

00:19:07.980 the really

00:19:09.060 good one,

00:19:09.460 we'll start

00:19:09.740 with this,

00:19:10.940 talking about

00:19:11.840 how to

00:19:12.260 find tests.

00:19:15.040 And she

00:19:15.700 has an

00:19:15.960 interesting

00:19:16.280 response to

00:19:16.780 that.

00:19:17.100 Let's listen.

00:19:18.480 Two years

00:19:19.080 into this,

00:19:19.620 why didn't

00:19:21.000 the

00:19:21.140 administration

00:19:21.680 just go

00:19:22.480 out and

00:19:23.160 secure

00:19:23.940 more at

00:19:26.320 home tests

00:19:26.980 after the

00:19:27.780 Delta surge

00:19:28.460 in the

00:19:28.860 fall?

00:19:29.160 Why are

00:19:29.500 we at a

00:19:29.840 point now

00:19:30.400 where folks

00:19:31.200 still can't

00:19:31.960 get tests?

00:19:32.740 tests?

00:19:33.460 But we

00:19:33.920 just ordered,

00:19:35.840 I don't

00:19:37.100 have the

00:19:37.320 number in

00:19:37.620 front of

00:19:37.840 me,

00:19:38.020 but millions

00:19:38.460 of tests.

00:19:39.160 We have

00:19:39.480 20,000

00:19:40.560 sites where

00:19:41.820 people can

00:19:42.360 go, and

00:19:42.760 I urge

00:19:43.360 people to

00:19:43.840 you can

00:19:44.280 Google it

00:19:44.860 or go

00:19:45.140 onto any

00:19:45.600 search engine

00:19:46.260 and find

00:19:47.100 out where

00:19:47.440 free testing

00:19:48.120 and the

00:19:48.380 free testing

00:19:48.820 site is

00:19:49.300 available.

00:19:50.060 But,

00:19:50.380 matter

00:19:50.480 vice

00:19:50.740 president,

00:19:51.120 the fact

00:19:51.440 that we're

00:19:51.660 still telling

00:19:52.060 people to

00:19:52.500 Google where

00:19:53.000 you can get

00:19:53.440 a test.

00:19:54.360 But come

00:19:56.260 on now,

00:19:56.720 I mean,

00:19:57.060 really,

00:19:57.620 if you want

00:19:58.380 to figure out

00:19:58.960 how to get

00:19:59.580 across town to

00:20:00.800 some restaurant

00:20:01.400 you heard is

00:20:02.020 great,

00:20:02.540 you usually

00:20:03.080 do Google

00:20:03.720 to figure out

00:20:04.580 where it is.

00:20:05.180 So that's

00:20:05.560 simply about

00:20:06.620 giving people

00:20:07.820 a mechanism

00:20:09.540 by which they

00:20:10.160 can locate

00:20:11.360 something that

00:20:12.620 they need,

00:20:13.320 something that

00:20:13.740 can help

00:20:14.140 them.

00:20:15.720 Did she just

00:20:16.460 say do

00:20:16.940 Google?

00:20:18.060 You know,

00:20:18.280 you got to

00:20:18.560 do Google.

00:20:21.020 Plug it

00:20:21.500 into on the

00:20:22.000 internet,

00:20:22.360 you do the

00:20:22.760 Google.

00:20:24.660 What is

00:20:24.960 with,

00:20:25.260 she seems

00:20:25.600 to pick

00:20:26.000 this up

00:20:26.460 from Biden.

00:20:27.080 I don't

00:20:27.200 know what

00:20:27.400 it is

00:20:27.580 with the

00:20:27.760 Biden

00:20:27.920 industry,

00:20:28.140 but this

00:20:28.420 is like

00:20:28.780 infectious,

00:20:29.880 I guess,

00:20:30.200 where she

00:20:30.800 does this

00:20:31.200 thing now

00:20:31.680 too.

00:20:32.020 Where her

00:20:32.720 primary

00:20:33.100 argument is,

00:20:33.680 come on.

00:20:34.660 I mean,

00:20:34.940 come on now.

00:20:35.940 Come on.

00:20:38.560 Of course,

00:20:39.040 the answer

00:20:39.360 that she

00:20:39.680 should be

00:20:40.100 giving to

00:20:40.760 this line

00:20:41.140 of questioning

00:20:41.540 about tests

00:20:42.180 is that,

00:20:43.100 look,

00:20:43.300 we don't

00:20:43.660 need to

00:20:45.020 have 100

00:20:45.560 million tests

00:20:46.100 out there.

00:20:48.240 Because if

00:20:48.800 you're not

00:20:49.060 sick,

00:20:49.460 you don't

00:20:49.660 need to be

00:20:49.900 getting tests.

00:20:50.940 The whole

00:20:51.200 reason we're

00:20:51.580 running out

00:20:51.920 of tests,

00:20:52.420 this is one

00:20:52.980 where I

00:20:53.180 don't blame,

00:20:53.840 I actually

00:20:54.100 don't blame

00:20:54.500 the Biden

00:20:54.740 administration

00:20:55.020 for this.

00:20:56.800 The fact

00:20:57.040 that there's

00:20:57.420 some places

00:20:58.620 are running,

00:20:59.000 the reason

00:20:59.360 why some

00:20:59.800 places are

00:21:00.160 running out

00:21:00.400 of tests is

00:21:00.940 that you

00:21:02.020 psychotic

00:21:02.860 people who

00:21:04.080 are hoarding

00:21:04.780 tests when

00:21:05.360 they're not

00:21:05.600 even sick.

00:21:08.300 That's why

00:21:08.760 we're running

00:21:09.000 out.

00:21:09.220 As long as

00:21:09.760 people are

00:21:10.120 doing that,

00:21:10.700 we're going

00:21:10.900 to run

00:21:11.100 out of

00:21:11.300 tests.

00:21:12.700 But what

00:21:13.180 she should

00:21:13.520 say is,

00:21:13.960 it doesn't

00:21:14.320 matter.

00:21:14.860 You don't

00:21:15.080 need a

00:21:15.340 test.

00:21:15.680 If you're

00:21:15.860 not sick,

00:21:16.320 live your

00:21:16.580 life.

00:21:18.320 If you

00:21:18.760 are sick,

00:21:19.200 stay home.

00:21:21.300 If you

00:21:21.720 have a fever,

00:21:22.880 whatever,

00:21:23.340 just stay

00:21:23.880 home like

00:21:24.260 you would

00:21:24.460 any other

00:21:24.760 time.

00:21:26.160 What do

00:21:26.540 you need

00:21:26.680 to test

00:21:27.000 for?

00:21:29.360 That's what

00:21:29.780 she should

00:21:30.080 say, but

00:21:30.480 she can't

00:21:31.400 say that.

00:21:32.020 Because she

00:21:33.040 cannot

00:21:33.360 abandon the

00:21:35.600 course and

00:21:36.080 abandon this

00:21:36.640 strategy.

00:21:37.080 And speaking

00:21:37.420 of the

00:21:37.640 strategy, she

00:21:38.160 was also

00:21:38.600 asked, is

00:21:40.360 the strategy

00:21:41.240 working?

00:21:43.480 We're looking

00:21:44.180 at record

00:21:44.640 levels of

00:21:45.620 COVID cases

00:21:46.740 right now.

00:21:47.800 Doesn't seem

00:21:48.440 to be much

00:21:48.780 indication that

00:21:49.880 the Biden

00:21:50.260 administration's

00:21:50.940 strategy is

00:21:51.400 working.

00:21:51.760 So is it

00:21:52.160 time to

00:21:52.640 change course?

00:21:53.760 She's asked.

00:21:54.660 And here's

00:21:55.160 what she

00:21:55.360 says.

00:21:55.620 At what

00:21:57.240 point does

00:21:58.320 the administration

00:21:58.760 say, you

00:21:59.560 know what,

00:22:00.320 this strategy

00:22:00.840 isn't working,

00:22:01.500 we're going

00:22:01.740 to change

00:22:02.180 strategies?

00:22:03.060 Six former

00:22:04.100 administration

00:22:05.320 officials last

00:22:05.920 week wrote

00:22:06.240 that open

00:22:06.620 letter urging

00:22:07.420 the administration

00:22:08.020 to change

00:22:09.000 course, to

00:22:09.500 change strategy.

00:22:11.040 Is it time?

00:22:11.720 It is time

00:22:13.840 for us to

00:22:14.760 do what we

00:22:16.240 have been

00:22:16.680 doing, and

00:22:17.140 that time is

00:22:17.680 every day.

00:22:19.420 Every day it

00:22:20.460 is time for

00:22:21.240 us to agree

00:22:22.640 that there

00:22:24.680 are things and

00:22:25.520 tools that are

00:22:26.040 available to us

00:22:27.140 to slow this

00:22:28.140 thing down.

00:22:29.940 My God.

00:22:31.740 So, direct

00:22:32.960 transcript here,

00:22:34.020 okay?

00:22:36.300 I had trouble.

00:22:37.440 I feel like I

00:22:37.880 need the

00:22:38.120 aboriginal

00:22:38.460 translator for

00:22:39.160 that one,

00:22:39.540 actually.

00:22:39.980 This is tough

00:22:41.460 to understand.

00:22:42.500 So, here's

00:22:43.300 what she said.

00:22:43.960 Direct

00:22:44.220 transcript,

00:22:45.260 verbatim.

00:22:46.640 It's time for

00:22:47.280 us to do

00:22:47.920 what we have

00:22:48.700 been doing,

00:22:49.580 and that time

00:22:50.440 is every day.

00:22:52.660 Let's pause

00:22:53.240 on that sentence

00:22:53.560 just for a second.

00:22:54.480 It's time for

00:22:55.100 us to do

00:22:55.440 what we have

00:22:55.860 been doing,

00:22:57.060 and that time

00:22:58.180 is every day.

00:22:58.900 Well, okay.

00:22:59.860 So, I guess

00:23:00.100 in a way that

00:23:01.720 makes sense.

00:23:02.340 So, whatever

00:23:03.580 we're doing

00:23:04.140 right now,

00:23:05.140 it's time for

00:23:06.240 us to be doing

00:23:06.840 that.

00:23:09.500 And so,

00:23:10.080 like, whatever

00:23:10.360 you're, I'm

00:23:11.300 trying to

00:23:11.500 understand this,

00:23:12.120 whatever you're

00:23:12.640 doing in the

00:23:13.300 present moment,

00:23:14.840 well, it's

00:23:15.240 obviously time

00:23:16.000 that you're

00:23:16.620 doing that.

00:23:17.280 And so, that

00:23:18.120 time is every

00:23:18.620 day because

00:23:19.160 you're always

00:23:19.880 living in the

00:23:21.080 present moment.

00:23:21.760 So, whatever

00:23:22.040 you're doing

00:23:22.480 in that moment,

00:23:23.340 that's what

00:23:23.900 you're doing

00:23:24.300 in that moment,

00:23:25.140 and that time

00:23:25.740 is every day

00:23:26.240 all the time.

00:23:28.860 Does that

00:23:29.280 make sense?

00:23:29.760 No, it doesn't

00:23:30.040 make any sense

00:23:30.400 at all, does it?

00:23:31.260 And then she

00:23:31.640 says, okay, so

00:23:32.580 it's time for us

00:23:33.320 to do what we

00:23:33.840 have been doing,

00:23:34.380 and that time

00:23:34.780 is every day.

00:23:36.020 Every day, it

00:23:36.640 is time for us

00:23:37.300 to agree that

00:23:38.880 there are things

00:23:39.420 and tools that

00:23:40.100 are available

00:23:40.520 to us to

00:23:41.320 slow this

00:23:41.780 thing down.

00:23:44.440 The only part

00:23:45.400 of that that

00:23:45.760 sort of made

00:23:46.380 sense from

00:23:48.140 her perspective

00:23:48.840 is every day

00:23:49.640 it's time for

00:23:50.280 us to agree.

00:23:51.280 That's really

00:23:51.860 what she wanted

00:23:52.280 to get to.

00:23:53.280 You know what

00:23:53.680 it's time for

00:23:54.200 every day?

00:23:54.720 Just agree with

00:23:55.560 me.

00:23:56.160 That's what

00:23:56.640 it's time for.

00:23:58.760 She is so

00:23:59.520 bad at this.

00:24:00.660 She is terrible

00:24:01.660 at this.

00:24:02.160 probably the

00:24:07.800 least skilled

00:24:08.440 politician we've

00:24:09.480 seen at this

00:24:10.400 level, certainly

00:24:11.800 in our

00:24:12.120 lifetimes.

00:24:14.640 I mean, there's

00:24:15.420 a reason why

00:24:15.980 Democrats are

00:24:16.660 now thinking

00:24:17.080 about pulling

00:24:18.200 Hillary Clinton

00:24:19.780 out of her

00:24:20.240 crypt.

00:24:21.800 I thought she

00:24:22.700 was the least

00:24:23.180 talented politician.

00:24:26.620 Kamala Harris

00:24:27.160 makes Hillary

00:24:28.060 Clinton look

00:24:28.700 human by

00:24:30.160 comparison.

00:24:30.800 Makes Hillary

00:24:31.140 Clinton look

00:24:31.520 charismatic.

00:24:32.160 and skilled

00:24:33.980 by comparison.

00:24:37.300 She's really

00:24:37.820 making me think

00:24:38.300 that I could

00:24:38.740 why don't I

00:24:39.460 just run at

00:24:39.940 this point?

00:24:41.720 I always

00:24:42.280 thought, no,

00:24:42.780 I could never

00:24:43.180 run for political

00:24:43.740 office because

00:24:44.280 number one,

00:24:45.560 that sounds

00:24:46.120 like hell on

00:24:47.940 earth to be in

00:24:48.540 that position.

00:24:49.340 It's a lot

00:24:49.920 more fun to

00:24:50.400 complain about

00:24:50.860 politicians than

00:24:51.600 to be one of

00:24:52.120 them.

00:24:52.580 But also, I

00:24:53.400 know that I

00:24:53.760 would be

00:24:54.160 terrible at it.

00:24:58.200 But I'd be

00:24:58.820 better than this

00:24:59.320 at least.

00:25:01.260 Wow.

00:25:02.160 moving now to

00:25:04.420 one clip

00:25:05.940 here.

00:25:06.240 We've got

00:25:06.580 members of the

00:25:08.380 Republican

00:25:08.760 establishment

00:25:09.360 after this

00:25:10.300 speech yesterday

00:25:11.520 from Biden

00:25:12.200 in Georgia

00:25:14.160 where he

00:25:14.720 said that

00:25:15.360 everyone who

00:25:15.820 disagrees with

00:25:16.400 him is a

00:25:17.140 confederate and

00:25:17.820 a racist.

00:25:19.200 They're all,

00:25:19.720 you know,

00:25:20.120 and Biden

00:25:21.500 said that after

00:25:22.160 claiming when he

00:25:22.820 got into office

00:25:23.320 that he wanted

00:25:23.600 to unite

00:25:23.900 everybody.

00:25:25.040 So,

00:25:25.420 Republican

00:25:26.540 establishment,

00:25:27.480 they're very

00:25:27.900 upset about

00:25:28.360 this.

00:25:29.620 They feel

00:25:30.080 backstabbed

00:25:30.740 because they've

00:25:32.080 been pretty

00:25:32.340 supportive of

00:25:32.960 Biden.

00:25:33.760 They haven't

00:25:33.980 been too

00:25:34.280 critical of

00:25:34.880 him.

00:25:37.540 Some of

00:25:38.060 them supported

00:25:38.680 him over

00:25:39.560 Trump.

00:25:41.200 And so,

00:25:42.100 they thought

00:25:42.480 that they

00:25:42.800 would always

00:25:43.600 be the

00:25:43.900 exception.

00:25:45.220 And they

00:25:45.740 thought at the

00:25:46.100 very least,

00:25:46.660 when Biden

00:25:47.060 delivers a

00:25:47.520 speech like

00:25:47.960 this, he

00:25:48.360 would say

00:25:48.740 that my

00:25:49.300 opponents are

00:25:50.120 all racist,

00:25:51.240 except for

00:25:51.880 these guys

00:25:52.700 over here.

00:25:53.160 They're fine.

00:25:53.560 And the

00:25:57.400 Republican

00:25:57.640 establishment

00:25:58.020 is shocked

00:25:58.480 and appalled

00:25:58.820 to find out

00:25:59.200 that didn't

00:25:59.480 happen.

00:26:00.680 They're getting

00:26:01.100 lumped in

00:26:01.480 with everybody

00:26:01.820 else.

00:26:02.860 So,

00:26:03.100 here's Mitt

00:26:03.480 Romney

00:26:03.920 expressing his

00:26:05.420 shock and

00:26:07.380 horror.

00:26:09.420 Prepared some

00:26:10.100 remarks to

00:26:10.900 give this

00:26:11.680 evening,

00:26:12.900 but I

00:26:14.240 had the

00:26:15.480 occasion to

00:26:16.240 watch President

00:26:17.220 Biden as he

00:26:18.640 spoke in

00:26:19.160 Georgia just

00:26:20.300 a few minutes

00:26:20.780 ago.

00:26:21.720 And he

00:26:22.340 said quite a

00:26:23.440 number of

00:26:23.840 things that

00:26:24.720 simply weren't

00:26:26.000 true.

00:26:27.420 He also

00:26:28.400 accused a

00:26:29.000 number of

00:26:29.420 my good and

00:26:30.100 principled

00:26:30.520 colleagues in

00:26:31.240 the Senate of

00:26:31.840 having sinister,

00:26:32.960 even racist

00:26:34.460 inclinations.

00:26:36.620 He charged

00:26:37.720 that voting

00:26:38.200 against his

00:26:38.900 bill allies

00:26:39.880 us with

00:26:41.060 Bull Connor,

00:26:42.280 George Wallace,

00:26:43.400 and Jefferson

00:26:44.440 Davis.

00:26:45.980 So much for

00:26:47.100 unifying the

00:26:47.760 country and

00:26:49.360 working across

00:26:50.000 the aisle.

00:26:50.440 more troubling,

00:26:53.580 however, he

00:26:55.400 said that the

00:26:55.820 goal of some

00:26:56.660 Republicans is

00:26:58.140 to, quote,

00:26:58.740 turn the will

00:26:59.640 of the voters

00:27:00.340 into a mere

00:27:01.840 suggestion.

00:27:04.120 And so

00:27:04.900 President Biden

00:27:06.060 goes down the

00:27:06.740 same tragic

00:27:07.400 road taken by

00:27:08.360 President Trump,

00:27:10.340 casting doubt

00:27:11.140 on the

00:27:11.960 reliability of

00:27:13.380 American

00:27:13.820 elections.

00:27:14.340 this is a

00:27:16.800 sad, sad

00:27:18.260 day.

00:27:19.680 I expected

00:27:20.560 more of

00:27:22.120 President Biden.

00:27:24.660 You did?

00:27:25.440 Well, what does

00:27:25.820 that tell you?

00:27:26.460 What does that

00:27:26.780 tell you about,

00:27:27.360 what does that

00:27:27.660 tell us about

00:27:28.280 you, rather,

00:27:28.860 I should say?

00:27:30.060 That you

00:27:30.240 expected more,

00:27:30.980 why did you

00:27:31.360 expect more

00:27:31.820 of President

00:27:32.120 Biden?

00:27:33.540 What has he

00:27:34.300 ever shown

00:27:35.120 you?

00:27:35.480 And he's been

00:27:36.460 in the public

00:27:37.020 eye for 97

00:27:38.220 years.

00:27:38.780 What is, in

00:27:39.500 the nearly

00:27:40.620 century that

00:27:41.320 he's been

00:27:41.620 on the

00:27:43.560 stage?

00:27:45.320 What has he

00:27:46.080 ever shown

00:27:46.780 you, ever,

00:27:47.780 that would

00:27:48.080 make you

00:27:48.480 expect more?

00:27:51.640 But Mitt

00:27:52.260 Romney,

00:27:53.120 totally

00:27:53.460 scandalized by

00:27:54.240 this, can't

00:27:54.700 believe it.

00:27:55.700 Mitch McConnell

00:27:56.620 also was very,

00:27:57.920 very upset,

00:27:58.280 nearly in

00:27:59.040 tears,

00:28:00.320 that he had

00:28:02.740 been accused

00:28:03.700 of racism in

00:28:04.520 this way by

00:28:05.060 a man who

00:28:05.820 he's just

00:28:07.040 disappointed,

00:28:07.720 he expected

00:28:08.160 more.

00:28:09.380 Let's listen.

00:28:11.000 Yesterday,

00:28:11.620 that very

00:28:13.680 same man

00:28:14.300 delivered a

00:28:15.280 deliberately

00:28:15.940 divisive

00:28:17.920 speech that

00:28:19.960 was designed

00:28:20.600 to pull our

00:28:21.700 country further

00:28:22.580 apart.

00:28:25.060 Twelve months

00:28:25.860 ago, this

00:28:26.380 president said

00:28:26.980 we should see

00:28:27.820 each other not

00:28:28.420 as adversaries

00:28:29.180 but as

00:28:29.600 neighbors.

00:28:31.600 Yesterday,

00:28:33.420 he called

00:28:34.460 millions of

00:28:36.220 Americans his

00:28:38.000 domestic

00:28:38.720 enemies.

00:28:39.680 who would

00:28:42.140 have

00:28:42.240 thought?

00:28:44.160 He said he

00:28:45.000 wanted to

00:28:45.440 bring us

00:28:45.940 all together.

00:28:46.500 Turns out he

00:28:46.940 didn't want to

00:28:47.280 do that.

00:28:48.980 These people

00:28:49.660 will never

00:28:50.240 learn.

00:28:52.400 As I've

00:28:53.000 tried to

00:28:53.480 explain many

00:28:54.220 times,

00:28:54.880 nobody

00:28:55.840 wants

00:28:57.860 unity,

00:28:58.680 actually.

00:29:00.340 Least of all

00:29:01.160 Joe Biden.

00:29:01.700 unity for

00:29:05.960 unity for

00:29:05.980 unity's sake

00:29:06.600 can't

00:29:07.360 exist.

00:29:08.400 You've got to

00:29:08.660 unite around

00:29:09.180 something.

00:29:10.380 There have to

00:29:10.720 be terms

00:29:11.620 upon which

00:29:13.680 we are,

00:29:14.720 within which

00:29:15.400 we are

00:29:16.040 uniting.

00:29:18.540 The terms of

00:29:19.460 unity for

00:29:20.060 Joe Biden

00:29:20.760 are that

00:29:22.340 you do

00:29:22.680 exactly as

00:29:23.340 he says

00:29:23.860 and you

00:29:26.680 submit

00:29:27.160 and then

00:29:29.100 we can

00:29:29.560 all have

00:29:29.800 unity there.

00:29:30.620 We can

00:29:30.940 have unity

00:29:31.440 in chains.

00:29:33.240 We can

00:29:33.500 have unity

00:29:33.900 in submission.

00:29:36.100 In obedience

00:29:36.940 to him.

00:29:38.480 That's what he

00:29:39.060 means by

00:29:39.340 unity.

00:29:40.160 Just to

00:29:40.460 clarify for

00:29:40.960 you.

00:29:42.880 All right,

00:29:43.440 this tweet

00:29:43.860 from a

00:29:44.160 doctor,

00:29:44.660 this is

00:29:44.960 Dr.

00:29:45.600 Tatiana

00:29:46.040 Prowl,

00:29:47.100 and it

00:29:47.580 looks at

00:29:47.900 first like

00:29:48.260 a joke,

00:29:48.740 some sort

00:29:49.040 of dark

00:29:50.240 parody,

00:29:50.960 but it's

00:29:51.440 actually not.

00:29:52.640 And it

00:29:53.060 maybe is the

00:29:53.640 perfect

00:29:53.900 summation of

00:29:55.020 everything that's

00:29:56.340 wrong with

00:29:56.680 our society's

00:29:57.340 COVID response.

00:29:59.280 So,

00:29:59.880 Tatiana

00:30:00.200 Prowl,

00:30:00.800 MD,

00:30:01.540 verified account

00:30:02.260 on Twitter,

00:30:02.640 so you know

00:30:02.860 she's really

00:30:03.240 important.

00:30:04.440 She says,

00:30:05.200 in case it

00:30:05.700 helps to be

00:30:06.120 concrete,

00:30:07.180 my teen

00:30:07.660 missed a

00:30:08.900 step and

00:30:09.300 rolled his

00:30:09.740 ankle badly

00:30:10.560 last night.

00:30:11.860 In usual

00:30:12.380 times,

00:30:12.800 we go to

00:30:13.140 his pediatrician

00:30:13.980 or urgent

00:30:14.480 care and

00:30:15.260 get an

00:30:15.500 x-ray.

00:30:16.280 Nope.

00:30:17.300 We'll sort

00:30:17.860 it out when

00:30:18.300 Omicron

00:30:18.880 settles.

00:30:19.840 We have

00:30:20.160 no confidence

00:30:20.820 that healthcare

00:30:21.280 settings are

00:30:21.860 safe right now.

00:30:23.680 And you can

00:30:24.000 see a picture

00:30:24.440 of the guys,

00:30:26.000 the kids,

00:30:26.340 the kids

00:30:27.440 ankle.

00:30:29.540 And a lot

00:30:30.300 of discoloration.

00:30:31.220 I'm not a

00:30:31.560 doctor myself.

00:30:32.440 She's supposedly

00:30:33.040 a doctor.

00:30:33.960 A lot of

00:30:34.260 discoloration

00:30:34.820 there.

00:30:35.620 A lot of

00:30:35.940 swelling.

00:30:37.260 Could be a

00:30:38.340 sprained ankle.

00:30:39.360 It could be a

00:30:39.700 broken foot

00:30:40.280 also.

00:30:42.280 That's what it

00:30:42.880 looks to me.

00:30:45.160 But she's

00:30:45.820 going to let

00:30:46.140 her kid,

00:30:46.720 and she's

00:30:47.080 bragging about

00:30:47.660 this.

00:30:49.220 Eventually,

00:30:49.520 she took the

00:30:50.000 tweet down.

00:30:50.560 She put her

00:30:51.000 account on

00:30:51.820 private and

00:30:52.460 everything because

00:30:53.140 people were

00:30:55.060 reacting to it

00:30:55.660 by saying,

00:30:56.000 oh,

00:30:56.140 you're

00:30:56.280 neglecting and

00:30:57.460 abusing your

00:30:57.920 child.

00:30:58.440 CPS need to

00:30:59.220 make a call

00:31:00.300 to CPS

00:31:00.720 here.

00:31:01.760 This is

00:31:02.760 abuse and

00:31:04.280 neglect.

00:31:04.660 This is what

00:31:04.940 medical neglect

00:31:05.880 of a child

00:31:06.540 looks like.

00:31:07.120 But at

00:31:10.160 first,

00:31:10.460 she was proud

00:31:11.180 of it.

00:31:11.820 And she

00:31:12.140 thought that

00:31:12.560 she would

00:31:12.760 get nothing

00:31:13.040 but a

00:31:13.280 pat on the

00:31:13.580 back and

00:31:13.920 applause.

00:31:15.080 That she's

00:31:15.500 taking COVID

00:31:16.120 seriously.

00:31:18.060 Because that's

00:31:18.660 all that

00:31:18.900 matters.

00:31:19.220 Just take

00:31:19.560 COVID seriously.

00:31:20.180 That's the

00:31:20.700 only medical

00:31:22.480 thing that

00:31:23.100 matters.

00:31:24.180 That's the

00:31:24.720 only threat

00:31:25.420 that any of

00:31:25.960 us face is

00:31:26.660 COVID.

00:31:28.340 Even Omicron,

00:31:29.360 which is,

00:31:29.800 or Omnicorn,

00:31:30.600 apologize,

00:31:31.480 which is nothing

00:31:32.120 but a cold for

00:31:32.660 almost everybody.

00:31:33.120 And so

00:31:34.940 she's going

00:31:35.240 to let her

00:31:35.600 child suffer

00:31:38.260 no x-ray

00:31:40.100 and just,

00:31:40.840 I guess,

00:31:41.340 hopefully give

00:31:42.120 him some

00:31:42.360 Tylenol.

00:31:44.660 And she

00:31:45.360 says,

00:31:45.660 we'll sort

00:31:46.120 it out when

00:31:46.840 Omnicorn goes

00:31:47.780 away.

00:31:48.680 So,

00:31:48.960 you know,

00:31:49.120 next month,

00:31:49.720 two months,

00:31:50.040 three months,

00:31:50.380 we'll sort

00:31:50.660 it out then.

00:31:52.000 If he's

00:31:52.540 permanently

00:31:52.860 disfigured by

00:31:53.880 now,

00:31:54.280 if he's got a

00:31:54.780 bone that was

00:31:55.340 broken and

00:31:56.060 heals the

00:31:56.740 wrong way,

00:31:57.460 and he's got

00:31:58.120 like a bent

00:31:58.640 foot now,

00:31:59.200 well,

00:31:59.440 you know,

00:32:01.040 at least he

00:32:01.440 didn't catch

00:32:01.780 a cold.

00:32:03.120 But she's

00:32:06.400 going to do

00:32:06.700 all of this,

00:32:07.200 of course,

00:32:07.440 as always,

00:32:07.980 for herself,

00:32:08.580 not for her

00:32:08.980 kid.

00:32:10.640 Because she's

00:32:11.280 afraid to

00:32:11.780 take the

00:32:12.040 kid to the

00:32:12.360 doctor,

00:32:12.620 then she

00:32:12.860 gets sick,

00:32:13.340 she doesn't

00:32:13.560 want him to

00:32:13.960 pick something

00:32:14.320 up and

00:32:14.580 then give

00:32:14.780 it to her.

00:32:17.700 And we

00:32:18.120 see how the

00:32:18.580 priorities are

00:32:19.300 totally flipped

00:32:19.960 around here.

00:32:22.700 That COVID

00:32:23.400 is the number

00:32:24.320 one threat

00:32:24.800 that everyone

00:32:25.180 faces.

00:32:25.760 And for this

00:32:26.240 kid,

00:32:26.560 like right

00:32:26.960 now,

00:32:27.980 the biggest

00:32:28.940 threat that he

00:32:29.580 faces medically

00:32:30.280 is that

00:32:31.420 potentially broken

00:32:32.740 bone that he

00:32:33.400 has that's

00:32:34.540 not getting

00:32:34.940 treatment.

00:32:38.160 All right,

00:32:38.640 moving on.

00:32:39.020 I have to show

00:32:39.780 you this also.

00:32:40.960 We won't play

00:32:41.480 much of it,

00:32:42.020 but I saw it.

00:32:43.100 Now,

00:32:43.240 you have to see it.

00:32:43.840 You know what

00:32:44.060 the rules are

00:32:44.620 on this show.

00:32:45.860 If I'm subjected

00:32:46.560 to it,

00:32:47.020 then I've got to

00:32:47.580 pass the misery

00:32:48.180 along.

00:32:49.420 So let's play.

00:32:50.280 We'll play just,

00:32:51.240 I'll give you

00:32:52.060 30 seconds of this.

00:32:54.020 I think that's

00:32:54.620 enough to prove

00:32:55.100 the point.

00:32:56.560 Go ahead.

00:32:57.160 Vaccinate.

00:32:59.280 You gonna get

00:33:00.140 corona from

00:33:01.080 Mona.

00:33:02.120 Don't vaccinate.

00:33:03.500 Don't wait.

00:33:04.660 Don't hesitate.

00:33:05.780 You gotta vaccinate

00:33:06.580 in a Lone Star

00:33:07.300 state.

00:33:08.080 Vaccination

00:33:08.640 is so great.

00:33:09.960 Vaccinate me

00:33:10.780 all day long.

00:33:11.920 Vaccinate your

00:33:12.760 daddy and mom.

00:33:13.820 Vaccinate my

00:33:14.620 body.

00:33:15.660 Vaccinate me

00:33:16.520 at the party.

00:33:17.420 I vaccine

00:33:18.040 dream.

00:33:19.080 I love the

00:33:19.840 vaccine all

00:33:20.940 day long.

00:33:22.240 I want to

00:33:22.880 vaccinate your

00:33:24.120 mom.

00:33:24.700 I want to

00:33:25.280 stick it in

00:33:26.580 your arm.

00:33:27.680 Oh my,

00:33:28.400 where are you?

00:33:31.320 Not a bad

00:33:31.940 song, actually.

00:33:33.000 You can tell he

00:33:33.380 put a lot of

00:33:33.740 work into that

00:33:34.760 and he memorized

00:33:35.460 it and everything.

00:33:37.260 I don't know

00:33:37.660 the context

00:33:38.420 there.

00:33:38.960 I don't know

00:33:39.220 where that

00:33:39.580 happened.

00:33:40.140 I don't know

00:33:40.640 why.

00:33:41.320 I don't know

00:33:41.580 what drugs

00:33:42.620 this guy's

00:33:43.040 on.

00:33:43.920 Doesn't matter.

00:33:44.600 He's on the

00:33:44.900 vaccine at the

00:33:45.460 very least.

00:33:47.480 And that's

00:33:48.020 it.

00:33:48.720 You saw it

00:33:49.760 now.

00:33:50.520 All right,

00:33:50.780 this is from

00:33:51.040 the New York

00:33:51.320 Post.

00:33:51.880 Important

00:33:52.260 news here.

00:33:54.360 This husband

00:33:55.080 and wife

00:33:55.540 improved

00:33:56.160 their

00:33:56.700 I should

00:33:58.580 have read

00:33:58.740 this article

00:33:59.060 ahead of time.

00:33:59.580 Oh, I'm

00:33:59.800 just going to

00:34:00.040 read the first.

00:34:00.440 This is the

00:34:00.760 New York

00:34:00.940 Post.

00:34:01.260 This is the

00:34:01.560 first sentence

00:34:02.000 of the

00:34:02.220 article.

00:34:02.720 It says,

00:34:03.420 this husband

00:34:04.020 and wife

00:34:04.400 improved their

00:34:05.200 boom boom

00:34:05.760 by sleeping

00:34:06.600 in separate

00:34:07.160 bedrooms.

00:34:07.660 This made

00:34:10.220 it past an

00:34:10.660 editor at a

00:34:11.140 major news

00:34:12.840 publication.

00:34:14.240 It uses the

00:34:15.120 term boom boom

00:34:15.940 to refer to

00:34:17.520 sexual relations.

00:34:18.600 Anyway,

00:34:18.920 Terry and

00:34:19.340 Michelle,

00:34:19.940 a married

00:34:20.220 mother of

00:34:20.560 three,

00:34:20.820 unwittingly

00:34:21.340 sparked a

00:34:22.260 now viral

00:34:22.780 social media

00:34:23.280 controversy

00:34:23.960 after revealing

00:34:24.720 that she and

00:34:25.720 her husband

00:34:26.060 Jamie improved

00:34:26.980 their sex

00:34:27.380 life by

00:34:27.720 sleeping in

00:34:28.200 different beds

00:34:28.720 in different

00:34:29.300 rooms of

00:34:29.680 their house.

00:34:30.800 Michelle told

00:34:31.220 the Post,

00:34:31.920 our lovemaking

00:34:32.500 is actually

00:34:32.820 better because

00:34:33.660 we're both

00:34:34.060 getting better

00:34:34.420 sleep and it

00:34:35.040 puts us in

00:34:35.460 better moods.

00:34:36.760 And we've

00:34:36.980 made it more

00:34:37.340 exciting by

00:34:37.900 coming up with

00:34:38.320 fun ways to

00:34:38.820 be intimate.

00:34:39.400 Afterwards,

00:34:39.860 we're like,

00:34:40.240 okay,

00:34:40.440 it's time for

00:34:40.880 bed and we

00:34:41.460 sleep in our

00:34:41.860 separate rooms,

00:34:42.440 she added,

00:34:43.020 noting that they

00:34:43.500 do share their

00:34:44.160 master suite on

00:34:44.920 weekends.

00:34:46.240 Michelle,

00:34:46.580 a hairdresser

00:34:47.060 and a

00:34:47.580 stay-at-home mom

00:34:48.280 who lives in a

00:34:48.820 six-bedroom house

00:34:49.420 in Ontario,

00:34:49.940 Canada,

00:34:50.700 briefed her

00:34:51.140 over 20,000

00:34:51.840 TikTok followers

00:34:52.520 of her bizarre

00:34:53.220 arrangements on

00:34:54.500 Tuesday and

00:34:55.880 this is what she

00:34:56.820 says,

00:34:57.020 she sleeps in

00:34:57.400 different rooms.

00:34:58.940 Experts agree.

00:35:00.760 So there are

00:35:01.420 experts on this

00:35:02.240 subject of

00:35:03.020 sleeping arrangements

00:35:04.400 for couples,

00:35:05.120 people that are

00:35:05.620 apparently

00:35:06.000 experts were

00:35:06.560 supposed to go

00:35:07.060 through.

00:35:07.680 Experts agree

00:35:08.320 that a bedroom

00:35:08.940 breakup can

00:35:09.720 profoundly enhance

00:35:10.900 a pair's

00:35:11.420 romance.

00:35:12.880 Quote,

00:35:13.500 choosing to

00:35:13.940 sleep in

00:35:14.220 separate beds

00:35:14.860 and even

00:35:15.240 separate rooms

00:35:15.980 in order to

00:35:16.540 increase the

00:35:17.060 quality and

00:35:17.520 frequency of

00:35:18.020 great sleep

00:35:18.500 is a wonderful

00:35:19.580 way to enhance

00:35:20.260 your sex life

00:35:20.920 because it also

00:35:21.700 puts a big

00:35:22.340 emphasis on your

00:35:23.220 own physical

00:35:23.740 health.

00:35:24.780 Sex and

00:35:25.140 relationship

00:35:25.480 expert Viviana

00:35:26.660 Coles explained

00:35:27.540 to the Post,

00:35:28.480 and anything

00:35:28.800 that you can do

00:35:29.300 to increase and

00:35:29.920 improve your

00:35:30.460 physical health

00:35:31.000 enhances your

00:35:32.120 sexual health.

00:35:33.040 You know,

00:35:33.260 I want to know

00:35:33.640 first of all

00:35:34.180 is any

00:35:36.000 time I hear

00:35:36.360 about sex

00:35:37.800 and relationship

00:35:38.560 experts,

00:35:39.280 I want to know

00:35:39.800 your own

00:35:40.200 marital history.

00:35:41.780 That's what we

00:35:42.700 should know.

00:35:43.140 I don't care

00:35:43.500 where you went

00:35:44.320 to school,

00:35:44.980 I don't care at

00:35:45.400 all about your

00:35:45.980 academic resume.

00:35:48.500 I want to know

00:35:49.380 if you're a

00:35:50.720 relationship expert,

00:35:52.280 are you married

00:35:53.440 and do you have

00:35:55.420 kids and how long

00:35:57.020 have you been

00:35:57.340 married?

00:35:58.560 You're not in the

00:35:59.440 running to be a

00:36:00.240 relationship expert if

00:36:01.300 you're not at least

00:36:02.080 married.

00:36:02.720 So that rules you

00:36:03.720 out.

00:36:03.900 If you're not

00:36:04.200 married, you

00:36:05.820 haven't gotten

00:36:06.380 to sort of the

00:36:07.740 finish line of the

00:36:10.600 opening stages of

00:36:11.520 relationship and

00:36:12.040 actually tied the

00:36:13.740 knot, then you're

00:36:14.200 not a relationship

00:36:14.720 expert.

00:36:16.240 If you've been

00:36:17.020 married for

00:36:17.960 certainly less

00:36:20.540 than a decade,

00:36:21.640 you're not in the

00:36:22.380 running to be a

00:36:23.340 relationship expert.

00:36:24.060 And if you don't

00:36:24.460 have kids, you're

00:36:25.760 also not a

00:36:26.180 relationship expert.

00:36:26.800 because that's

00:36:28.820 when the

00:36:29.500 relationship is

00:36:30.140 really tried by

00:36:31.160 fire is when you

00:36:32.440 have kids.

00:36:34.060 And there are all

00:36:34.440 kinds of challenges

00:36:35.700 that you meet in

00:36:37.180 your relationship that

00:36:38.420 relate to having

00:36:38.960 kids that if you've

00:36:40.020 never been through

00:36:40.680 that, then you can't

00:36:42.060 possibly be an

00:36:42.640 expert.

00:36:43.840 And then even if

00:36:44.540 you have crossed

00:36:47.060 that entire gauntlet,

00:36:49.380 I'm not sure that

00:36:49.900 you're still not a

00:36:50.620 relationship expert.

00:36:51.780 You maybe have some

00:36:53.820 expertise in your own

00:36:55.100 relationship.

00:36:55.620 relationship, but

00:36:57.360 as far as other

00:36:58.080 people's, I'm not

00:36:58.640 sure what you really

00:36:59.380 have to offer.

00:37:02.900 Here's what I will

00:37:03.620 say.

00:37:03.980 As someone who at

00:37:04.780 least I am married,

00:37:05.700 I've been married for

00:37:06.240 10 years and I have

00:37:07.220 kids.

00:37:08.420 So you can notice I

00:37:09.560 kind of set this up

00:37:12.580 so that I qualify as

00:37:15.340 a relationship expert.

00:37:16.340 That all happens to

00:37:17.260 be a coincidence.

00:37:18.980 As far as sleeping in

00:37:20.020 separate rooms and

00:37:20.540 separate beds, I know

00:37:22.100 the argument is that,

00:37:23.420 well, my spouse

00:37:24.200 snores, I can't

00:37:25.320 sleep.

00:37:26.780 First of all, you

00:37:27.440 suffer through that.

00:37:29.700 That's what you've

00:37:31.000 signed up for.

00:37:32.380 And you can bond in

00:37:33.760 that suffering.

00:37:34.940 My wife complains

00:37:35.880 sometimes because she

00:37:36.680 claims that I tend to

00:37:38.000 snore.

00:37:38.680 I've never heard myself

00:37:39.580 snore.

00:37:40.260 This is her

00:37:40.780 allegation.

00:37:42.320 And she complains

00:37:42.860 about that sometimes.

00:37:44.280 And I tell her,

00:37:45.060 like, this is, you

00:37:45.980 should be, to hear

00:37:48.160 the beautiful noises

00:37:49.120 of my snoring, you

00:37:50.260 should delight in that.

00:37:51.260 You know, you

00:37:53.080 should, this is a, this

00:37:54.080 is a, an amazing

00:37:55.000 opportunity for you

00:37:55.760 every single night to

00:37:57.300 lie awake and reflect

00:37:58.520 about how blessed you

00:38:00.100 are to, to be married

00:38:02.620 to me, you know, and to

00:38:04.720 hear the, the, the sweet

00:38:05.680 song that I am, that I

00:38:07.380 am singing in my sleep

00:38:08.480 to you.

00:38:08.940 And if you're, if, if

00:38:11.980 there's suffering that

00:38:12.720 goes through that, then

00:38:13.340 you know what, you, you

00:38:15.360 are strengthened in that

00:38:16.380 suffering while I sleep

00:38:17.980 soundly.

00:38:18.600 And the other great

00:38:19.040 thing is that I, I, that

00:38:20.380 I, I sleep okay and I

00:38:21.500 wake up and I'm fine.

00:38:23.480 And you should take some

00:38:24.280 solace in that.

00:38:24.800 So I've explained that

00:38:25.340 to my wife.

00:38:27.720 She, it, it doesn't

00:38:28.720 really, the argument

00:38:29.600 doesn't resonate with her

00:38:30.400 that well, but that's,

00:38:31.660 that's, that's the,

00:38:32.060 that's the thing.

00:38:32.800 And, but also the other

00:38:33.700 thing is you have to

00:38:35.600 think about symbolism can

00:38:37.680 be important in a

00:38:38.340 marriage.

00:38:38.940 Um, wearing a wedding

00:38:41.760 ring is obviously

00:38:42.880 symbolism.

00:38:44.520 And you could say, Oh,

00:38:45.520 what does the wedding

00:38:46.220 ring matter?

00:38:46.820 You can just take the

00:38:47.300 wedding ring off.

00:38:47.740 You don't need to wear a

00:38:48.260 wedding ring.

00:38:49.240 It's just a, it's just a

00:38:50.240 piece of equipment.

00:38:51.160 It's just a piece of

00:38:52.120 metal or whatever on

00:38:52.920 your, on your, uh, on

00:38:54.400 your hand.

00:38:56.120 Yeah, but it's, it's

00:38:57.180 symbolism.

00:38:57.640 It's about your bond with

00:38:59.040 this other person.

00:39:00.000 So you have to think

00:39:00.660 about if you decide to

00:39:01.420 take your wedding ring

00:39:02.140 off and go about your

00:39:03.560 day without it, what does

00:39:04.760 that symbolize?

00:39:05.740 What does that choice

00:39:06.360 symbolize?

00:39:06.860 It doesn't symbolize

00:39:07.360 anything good.

00:39:07.900 Separating into separate

00:39:10.460 rooms, there's a lot of

00:39:11.580 symbolism there.

00:39:14.060 You're also setting a

00:39:15.060 precedent and part of the

00:39:16.300 precedent is we have a

00:39:17.460 problem and we're going to

00:39:18.360 solve it by separating.

00:39:19.900 And, uh, once you lay that

00:39:25.260 groundwork, you don't want to

00:39:27.700 see where that leads.

00:39:29.000 So I wouldn't recommend it

00:39:30.180 as the person who doesn't,

00:39:32.020 you know, who, who sleeps

00:39:32.860 well, I don't recommend it.

00:39:34.420 Let's get now to the

00:39:35.180 comment section.

00:39:35.680 Corey B says, Matt, video games

00:39:46.700 are super and superhero movies

00:39:48.060 are for 12 year olds.

00:39:49.460 Also, Matt, yay sledding.

00:39:51.800 We, well, you know what, but

00:39:54.040 it's okay because I, I do that

00:39:55.600 with my children.

00:39:56.900 That's one of the advantages of

00:39:58.200 having kids is that you can do

00:39:59.580 these, uh, you can experience

00:40:01.560 these childlike things again

00:40:03.840 with your kids.

00:40:05.400 Even if I continue sledding

00:40:06.580 after they've gone inside

00:40:07.600 because they're cold still,

00:40:08.920 it's still part of the

00:40:10.060 parenting experience.

00:40:11.920 Uh, so, you know, if you

00:40:13.160 want to watch superhero

00:40:13.720 movies, like as I, as I said,

00:40:16.480 I took my kids to go watch

00:40:18.120 Spider-Man.

00:40:19.500 Perfectly acceptable.

00:40:20.580 It is perfectly acceptable to

00:40:21.800 take your kids to go watch

00:40:22.900 a superhero movie.

00:40:24.360 Um, after all, the movies are

00:40:25.860 made for kids, but if you're

00:40:28.760 just an adult and you don't

00:40:29.740 even have kids and you go to

00:40:30.700 watch some kids movie by

00:40:31.780 yourself or with another

00:40:32.920 adult, that's weird.

00:40:34.820 Okay.

00:40:35.560 That's when it becomes an

00:40:36.420 issue.

00:40:36.920 All right.

00:40:37.600 Uh, so if you, if you want

00:40:39.420 an excuse to watch superhero

00:40:40.680 movies, just have kids.

00:40:43.220 Perfectly acceptable reason

00:40:44.340 to have kids.

00:40:45.560 Tom says, just think if only

00:40:47.520 property owners could vote

00:40:48.720 in local elections, any race,

00:40:50.480 religion, or sex, but only

00:40:51.720 property owners.

00:40:52.900 What a difference that would

00:40:54.100 make.

00:40:54.820 No vagabonds, but only people

00:40:56.560 with a stake in their

00:40:57.320 communities.

00:40:57.920 I love your use of the word

00:40:59.140 vagabond.

00:40:59.640 I think that's not used

00:41:00.460 nearly often enough.

00:41:03.000 I understand the property

00:41:04.160 owner argument.

00:41:05.660 The problem is that there

00:41:06.760 are, you know, these days

00:41:07.900 there are plenty of people

00:41:08.900 who are contributing members

00:41:09.980 of their society.

00:41:10.860 They have jobs.

00:41:12.100 They, you know, they care

00:41:13.060 for their children.

00:41:13.740 They care for their

00:41:14.180 families and they happen to

00:41:15.240 rent.

00:41:15.820 And so I, you know, I, I

00:41:17.800 don't think it's necessarily

00:41:18.420 fair to exclude all of them.

00:41:21.520 And, uh, as you know, for

00:41:22.920 me, I would settle with just

00:41:24.680 a very brief 10 question

00:41:26.900 civics quiz, making sure

00:41:28.620 that, um, these people have

00:41:30.640 about the awareness of

00:41:32.860 current events and how our

00:41:34.420 government works that we

00:41:35.220 expect of like a fifth

00:41:36.080 grader.

00:41:36.880 And I would settle for

00:41:37.820 that.

00:41:38.240 But in my ideal scenario,

00:41:39.440 there would be other

00:41:39.980 qualifications as well.

00:41:41.420 And I do think that there

00:41:42.520 should be, I don't think we

00:41:43.220 can do a property owner

00:41:44.140 arrangement because as I

00:41:45.980 said, so many people rent.

00:41:48.340 Um, but you have to be

00:41:52.920 employed.

00:41:53.340 You have to be earning an

00:41:53.900 income.

00:41:54.880 We could think about you

00:41:56.000 have maybe, maybe only

00:41:57.180 people who have dependents

00:41:58.480 should be voting because

00:42:01.340 these are the people that

00:42:02.480 really have a stake in it.

00:42:05.180 I would consider all of that,

00:42:06.980 all of these possibilities

00:42:09.040 that will never, ever happen

00:42:10.060 in a million years.

00:42:11.100 Charlene says, I think at

00:42:12.160 the very least people should

00:42:13.300 be forced to answer a few

00:42:14.240 basic questions before

00:42:15.120 casting their vote.

00:42:16.180 Numerous videos prove the

00:42:17.440 majority can't name a past

00:42:18.800 president or know the year

00:42:20.040 of the revolutionary war.

00:42:21.420 Why should we trust our

00:42:22.440 country's future in the

00:42:23.340 hands of people who don't

00:42:24.640 care enough to learn the

00:42:25.620 most basic things?

00:42:27.620 Uh, it seems like an

00:42:29.000 obvious point to me,

00:42:29.920 obvious argument.

00:42:30.860 Now I know that the

00:42:31.800 counter argument that you

00:42:32.740 always hear is, well,

00:42:33.940 who's going to be in

00:42:34.960 charge of coming up with

00:42:36.000 these tests?

00:42:36.940 Uh, obviously it'd be a

00:42:37.880 government thing.

00:42:38.440 Are we going to trust the

00:42:39.180 government to do this?

00:42:40.580 And yeah, I, I admit

00:42:42.120 that that is a, that's a

00:42:43.080 downside to a plan like

00:42:45.700 this, but what's the

00:42:48.380 alternative?

00:42:49.680 Well, the alternative is

00:42:50.740 what we're living through

00:42:51.360 right now.

00:42:52.680 That's just any

00:42:53.620 ignoramus, any moron, any

00:42:55.940 person, no matter how

00:42:56.780 ignorant, someone who has

00:42:58.460 no idea what's going on

00:42:59.680 can go in there and cast a

00:43:02.180 vote based on nothing.

00:43:03.920 So although there are

00:43:07.420 downsides to a civics quiz

00:43:10.080 scenario and there are

00:43:11.540 ways that that can be

00:43:12.340 abused, our current

00:43:14.540 scenario, our current, our

00:43:15.860 current setup has many

00:43:17.660 more downsides and can also

00:43:18.880 be abused and is being

00:43:19.880 abused.

00:43:21.620 Think about the way that

00:43:22.600 the government and the

00:43:23.260 powers that be can abuse

00:43:24.880 the fact that stupid,

00:43:27.540 ignorant people vote.

00:43:28.640 Because the government

00:43:32.380 loves it.

00:43:33.280 This is one of the

00:43:34.020 reasons why this plan will

00:43:35.780 never be put into action.

00:43:37.900 Because the people that are

00:43:38.780 in power right now, it

00:43:39.740 doesn't benefit them if only

00:43:42.620 informed and intelligent

00:43:44.000 people with a stake in the

00:43:45.380 country are, are, are

00:43:46.500 voting.

00:43:46.780 The people currently in

00:43:49.820 power right now, they

00:43:50.460 would not be benefited by

00:43:51.420 that and they know it.

00:43:53.060 It's much better for them

00:43:54.520 to have as many morons as

00:43:56.180 possible.

00:44:02.080 Hey, what's going on?

00:44:03.360 Says Matt, you said you

00:44:04.240 wouldn't vote for an over

00:44:05.080 75 year old yet.

00:44:06.260 If it was between Trump and

00:44:07.300 a Democrat, wouldn't you

00:44:09.000 vote for the lesser of two

00:44:09.960 evils?

00:44:10.440 I personally don't think

00:44:11.440 DeSantis is going to run.

00:44:13.140 No, I said that I will, I

00:44:14.320 will not support the

00:44:15.400 nomination of anyone 75 or

00:44:17.860 older.

00:44:19.220 I didn't say that I

00:44:20.020 wouldn't vote for them.

00:44:20.700 I wouldn't, and that's an

00:44:21.340 important distinction.

00:44:22.000 I wouldn't support the

00:44:22.560 nomination.

00:44:23.940 So going through the

00:44:24.760 nominating process in the

00:44:25.680 primaries, when I'm looking

00:44:26.820 at all the options, to me,

00:44:29.240 that's a deal breaker.

00:44:30.560 If you're a very elderly

00:44:31.660 person and you're going to

00:44:34.860 approach or cross into your

00:44:37.060 80s while in office, I'm not,

00:44:38.800 I'm not going to support

00:44:39.520 your nomination.

00:44:39.960 But if you are nominated,

00:44:41.480 then yeah, it does become

00:44:42.360 the lesser to evils thing.

00:44:43.380 And I understand that.

00:44:44.180 And I would still vote,

00:44:45.240 but, um, how about we just

00:44:47.900 don't put ourselves in that

00:44:48.880 position?

00:44:49.220 Let's not put ourselves in a

00:44:50.460 position where we have to do

00:44:51.780 the lesser to evils deal.

00:44:54.880 How about nominating someone

00:44:56.020 we could really be excited

00:44:56.820 about?

00:44:57.800 Like Ron DeSantis.

00:45:00.340 Lisa says, Matt, okay, so if

00:45:02.000 there were a person who felt

00:45:03.120 that way about kids, but never

00:45:04.640 ever acted in even the most

00:45:05.840 minor way and was immediately

00:45:07.220 scared and upset about the

00:45:08.560 feeling, um, but aside from a

00:45:11.640 feeling this person has done

00:45:12.600 nothing and ever wants to, what

00:45:14.420 would you suggest to that

00:45:15.380 person?

00:45:15.700 Or do you believe it's a

00:45:16.540 choice and no one feels that

00:45:17.660 way?

00:45:18.400 Uh, I am certainly not

00:45:19.420 advocating for them or

00:45:20.720 normalizing, but you knocked

00:45:21.980 down a suggested solution

00:45:23.120 without any other options.

00:45:24.260 Do you feel such a person

00:45:25.460 should deal with it on their

00:45:26.540 own?

00:45:27.220 That religion, that religion

00:45:28.580 should make it go away.

00:45:29.660 What's your solution?

00:45:30.880 Well, there is no solution.

00:45:32.160 First of all, we have to,

00:45:33.420 we're talking about pedophilia

00:45:34.620 here.

00:45:35.320 Uh, there's no solution to it

00:45:36.940 in the sense that we're not

00:45:37.980 going to be able to do

00:45:38.600 anything that makes it go

00:45:40.420 away.

00:45:40.820 And it's just not a part

00:45:41.940 of, we're not going to be

00:45:42.360 able to erase pedophilia from

00:45:44.320 the world completely.

00:45:46.980 And, uh, that's the first

00:45:48.740 thing we have to do is, is

00:45:49.880 realize that.

00:45:51.340 And so now what we're doing

00:45:52.560 is what's the best way to

00:45:53.820 manage this problem.

00:45:56.880 And the best way to manage it

00:45:58.400 is to segregate the dangerous

00:46:00.700 people, get them out of

00:46:01.680 society.

00:46:03.280 Um, the issue of, okay, you

00:46:05.140 have someone that you're

00:46:06.240 talking about, someone who

00:46:07.180 has these, this inclination,

00:46:09.180 this impulse, they've never

00:46:10.600 acted on it.

00:46:12.040 And I assume you would

00:46:12.940 agree pornography and all

00:46:14.580 that, that counts as acting

00:46:15.600 on it because if they've

00:46:17.260 acted on it in any way, I

00:46:19.800 say send them to prison

00:46:20.700 forever.

00:46:22.360 Like act on it one time

00:46:23.860 you're done forever.

00:46:25.020 You're not getting a second

00:46:25.640 chance because we know that

00:46:27.860 there's not going to be any,

00:46:28.920 there's never going to be a

00:46:29.820 point where, where you can

00:46:30.960 be, where we can trust that

00:46:32.700 you've been rehabilitated and

00:46:33.980 you're not a danger to the

00:46:34.740 society anymore.

00:46:35.440 You're done forever.

00:46:36.320 You're gone from society.

00:46:37.940 But in your scenario,

00:46:40.340 hypothetically, you've got

00:46:41.580 someone who has these

00:46:43.520 thoughts, never acted on

00:46:45.600 them in any way whatsoever,

00:46:47.120 never committed any crime

00:46:48.100 at all.

00:46:50.380 Um, you say that I was, I

00:46:52.220 was, you know, shooting down

00:46:54.180 the suggested quote unquote

00:46:55.600 solution in the, in the USA

00:46:56.820 today article.

00:46:57.440 I didn't, I mean, the author

00:46:59.640 of that article was saying,

00:47:00.600 well, people like that, we

00:47:01.400 need, we, they, we need to

00:47:03.100 get them into therapy.

00:47:03.860 We need to figure out a way

00:47:04.980 to, you know, we need to

00:47:06.300 start figuring out a way to

00:47:08.220 help them suppress these

00:47:09.480 feelings and all that.

00:47:10.900 Uh, yeah, I agree with

00:47:11.740 that.

00:47:12.480 I think everybody would agree

00:47:13.560 with that.

00:47:15.420 My issue with the article is

00:47:16.940 the way that all that, that

00:47:18.360 sentiment was couched in all

00:47:22.080 this rhetoric about

00:47:23.260 normalizing and de-stigmatizing

00:47:26.420 that we don't want to do.

00:47:27.920 the fact that pedophilia is

00:47:31.880 stigmatized is a very good

00:47:33.220 thing.

00:47:35.720 My greatest fear is that it

00:47:37.180 will get to a point where it's

00:47:37.980 no longer stigmatized.

00:47:39.020 So we, we want it to be

00:47:40.260 stigmatized.

00:47:40.980 We don't want it to be

00:47:41.880 treated as a normal thing.

00:47:44.460 We don't want to talk about,

00:47:45.600 you know, use different words,

00:47:46.760 minor attracted person.

00:47:48.160 We don't want to talk about

00:47:48.920 them as though they're a

00:47:49.620 community, none of that.

00:47:50.980 So that was my issue with the

00:47:51.880 article.

00:47:52.700 You know, with the ever

00:47:53.520 increasing numbers of cars,

00:47:55.080 makes and models and

00:47:56.540 everything and all, all of

00:47:57.840 the stuff that's out there.

00:47:58.860 It's impossible to stock all

00:48:00.260 the parts you need in a

00:48:01.660 traditional chain storefront.

00:48:03.500 So why endure the pointless,

00:48:06.080 sometimes intimidating

00:48:07.340 questioning about the

00:48:08.820 specifications of your

00:48:09.760 vehicle only to have the

00:48:11.120 guy behind the counter say,

00:48:12.040 oh, well, we don't have

00:48:12.580 that.

00:48:12.720 We got to order it in.

00:48:13.620 You know, you could have

00:48:14.140 just cut out the middleman.

00:48:15.080 You could have done it

00:48:15.880 yourself.

00:48:16.820 You have computers at home.

00:48:18.520 You have a one in your

00:48:19.300 pocket with access to

00:48:55.220 Write Walsh in there, how did

00:48:56.120 you hear about us box, so they

00:48:57.580 know that we sent you.

00:48:58.580 Now let's get to our daily

00:48:59.360 cancellation.

00:49:04.420 So long-time fans of this show

00:49:06.060 will remember that last week,

00:49:08.560 a long time ago, we canceled

00:49:09.720 trans YouTuber Samantha Lux,

00:49:11.640 who posted a video attacking my

00:49:14.180 best-selling LGBT novel, Johnny

00:49:16.020 the Walrus, which is available for

00:49:17.260 pre-order at johnnythewalrus.com.

00:49:19.100 After I debunked Sam's debunking,

00:49:21.220 many people in the comments

00:49:22.060 informed me that YouTube is in

00:49:23.320 fact full of videos criticizing

00:49:24.840 my seminal work of children's

00:49:26.920 literature, Johnny the Walrus,

00:49:28.140 which is available at

00:49:28.740 johnnythewalrus.com.

00:49:29.960 They wanted to know why I only

00:49:31.520 picked on good old Sam while

00:49:33.700 leaving these other would-be

00:49:34.840 debunkers unscathed.

00:49:36.960 Well, as you know, I'm a big

00:49:38.340 advocate for equity and

00:49:39.560 inclusion.

00:49:40.340 I would never want to single

00:49:41.520 anybody out unfairly or leave

00:49:43.080 anybody out unfairly.

00:49:44.620 And so today, I'm going to go

00:49:45.780 through all the other anti-Johnny

00:49:47.820 the Walrus videos on the

00:49:48.760 platform and cancel all of

00:49:50.280 them.

00:49:51.060 Now, we're not going to have

00:49:51.500 time, unfortunately, to watch

00:49:52.580 all these videos in their

00:49:53.460 entirety, but we'll watch a

00:49:55.180 short and hopefully

00:49:55.780 representative clip from each

00:49:57.060 just so we get an idea of what

00:49:58.200 they're all about, enough to

00:49:59.280 demonstrate why they deserve to

00:50:00.680 be canceled.

00:50:01.580 Some of these videos are from

00:50:02.740 accounts with lots of

00:50:03.620 subscribers.

00:50:04.280 Some of them have a subscriber

00:50:05.320 base that includes their

00:50:06.340 immediate families and nobody

00:50:07.360 else.

00:50:08.180 And some probably don't even

00:50:09.380 have a fan base that large.

00:50:11.320 But we're going to include the

00:50:12.220 whole spectrum today because I

00:50:13.400 think that's the fairest thing.

00:50:14.820 And again, this is about

00:50:15.420 equity.

00:50:15.740 So we begin with the YouTube

00:50:17.640 channel, Just a Lazy Gamer.

00:50:20.100 Already, you can appreciate the

00:50:21.460 self-awareness at the very

00:50:22.400 least.

00:50:23.120 Let's see what Lazy Gamer has to

00:50:24.500 say about my book.

00:50:26.320 Yes.

00:50:26.820 Matt Walsh has decided to make a

00:50:28.800 book hating on trans children

00:50:31.940 because, you know, you've got to

00:50:33.720 get that hate speech in when

00:50:35.300 they're young.

00:50:36.300 But here's the thing.

00:50:37.740 He's also decided to do the

00:50:39.520 let's go Brandon Song, Bryce

00:50:41.860 and Gray approach and go, hey,

00:50:43.940 maybe you can get me in the top

00:50:45.560 10 and that'll really show him

00:50:47.580 if you give me your money.

00:50:49.760 And if we go to Amazon, he's

00:50:52.780 already got 23 ratings.

00:50:55.300 No verified purchasers, of

00:50:56.900 course, because the book hasn't

00:50:58.640 made it to anyone's door.

00:51:00.360 Now, this book is on Amazon.

00:51:04.140 Amazon has rules against hate

00:51:06.060 speech in their book.

00:51:07.860 They have that in the rules.

00:51:09.200 And I get the feeling he's

00:51:11.340 hoping that this book gets

00:51:14.460 banned on Amazon to play the

00:51:16.520 victim even more, maybe after

00:51:18.220 they get it up to like number

00:51:19.340 15 or whatever on a chart.

00:51:21.580 And of course, he's selling

00:51:22.980 signed copies for I think it's

00:51:25.140 $30 with $10 shipping.

00:51:27.880 Because of course he is.

00:51:29.380 Because the grifting never

00:51:31.160 stops.

00:51:33.160 Okay.

00:51:33.780 To begin with, he talks about

00:51:35.720 there's a signed copies.

00:51:36.980 $30 for a signed copy is a

00:51:38.640 steal.

00:51:39.140 I'm literally the most

00:51:40.200 prominent and respected

00:51:41.100 LGBT children's author in

00:51:42.360 American history, as well as

00:51:43.480 the country's leading cult

00:51:45.320 leader and the most generous

00:51:46.420 philanthropist and abuela

00:51:47.480 fundraiser of the 21st century.

00:51:49.280 So my signature is worth

00:51:50.320 thousands.

00:51:51.460 That I'd give it away for a

00:51:52.560 measly $30 just speaks again to

00:51:54.420 my generosity, not to mention

00:51:55.460 my humility.

00:51:56.860 Furthermore, I take a great

00:51:58.200 exception to the claim that we

00:52:00.020 wanted to get banned from

00:52:00.980 Amazon after reaching number

00:52:02.220 15 on the chart.

00:52:03.820 That's absurd.

00:52:05.240 We wanted to get banned after

00:52:06.420 reaching the top five.

00:52:07.820 We did get to the top five, but

00:52:09.220 we didn't get banned.

00:52:10.140 Instead, we just got banned from

00:52:11.080 Target, which was a rather

00:52:12.100 sort of disappointing

00:52:12.860 runner-up prize.

00:52:15.000 Finally, the book does not hate

00:52:17.100 on trans kids.

00:52:18.740 Primarily because there's no such

00:52:19.880 thing as trans kids.

00:52:21.400 My issue is with the adults who

00:52:23.580 have invented the category of

00:52:25.300 trans kids.

00:52:26.420 So if I'm hating on anyone, it's

00:52:28.200 them.

00:52:29.300 Because they're morally debased

00:52:30.740 child abusers.

00:52:32.360 Hopefully that clears that up.

00:52:33.200 Now we have YouTuber Sam Collins.

00:52:36.560 Sam has a larger presence on

00:52:38.000 YouTube, over 800,000

00:52:38.960 subscribers.

00:52:39.740 Let's see what Sam has to

00:52:40.820 offer.

00:52:42.180 And a simple procedure cuts

00:52:44.100 feet into fins.

00:52:46.720 The doctor wants to cut into

00:52:48.980 Johnny and make him into a

00:52:50.240 walrus.

00:52:52.240 Ah, there it is.

00:52:53.760 The whole mutilation thing.

00:52:55.420 Because we chop ourselves up.

00:52:56.760 Remember, when we have

00:52:57.580 surgeries, we're mutilating

00:52:58.820 ourselves and we're chopping

00:52:59.920 ourselves up.

00:53:00.760 It's also funny because this

00:53:01.780 book is about a child and I've

00:53:03.220 said it over and over again

00:53:04.500 and many trans people have

00:53:06.100 said that children don't get

00:53:07.720 surgeries.

00:53:08.660 We could say it a thousand

00:53:09.760 times, but these people still

00:53:10.940 just choose not to believe what

00:53:12.500 we say.

00:53:13.180 It's really funny because this

00:53:14.240 can be explained with just one

00:53:16.020 simple thought.

00:53:17.080 Children don't get surgery,

00:53:18.680 right?

00:53:19.340 How would you ever have a

00:53:20.600 surgery when you're not fully

00:53:21.620 developed anyways?

00:53:22.940 You can't cut this off if it's

00:53:25.920 not there.

00:53:26.680 So please explain to me how

00:53:28.660 these children are getting

00:53:29.800 surgeries.

00:53:31.740 Happily, I'll explain it.

00:53:32.900 A few points here.

00:53:33.740 First, no, I don't think that

00:53:35.740 when trans people have

00:53:36.580 surgery, they're mutilating

00:53:37.960 themselves because if you have

00:53:39.740 a trans person who has

00:53:40.960 gallbladder surgery or gets

00:53:43.080 their ACL repaired or has

00:53:45.360 heart surgery, I wouldn't call

00:53:47.100 that mutilation.

00:53:48.840 Surgeries that are meant to

00:53:49.860 treat medical issues are not

00:53:51.520 mutilation, no matter who's

00:53:52.840 getting them.

00:53:53.220 But a surgery that destroys a

00:53:55.720 healthy body part or that

00:53:57.340 slices open a healthy organ and

00:53:59.020 flips it inside out is

00:54:00.980 mutilation, no matter who's

00:54:02.340 getting it.

00:54:03.280 By definition, that's

00:54:04.420 mutilation.

00:54:05.340 Now, if you don't believe me,

00:54:06.020 let's go to the dictionary.

00:54:06.940 Mutilation, here's the

00:54:07.840 definition.

00:54:09.200 An act or instance of

00:54:10.480 destroying, removing, or

00:54:11.800 severely damaging a limb or

00:54:14.040 other body part of a person or

00:54:15.420 animal.

00:54:16.360 So what happens to the penis

00:54:17.940 during a sex chain surgery?

00:54:19.460 What happens to a woman's

00:54:20.620 breasts during top surgery?

00:54:22.080 These parts of the body are

00:54:24.220 either removed or destroyed.

00:54:26.200 They are, by definition,

00:54:28.500 mutilated.

00:54:29.580 There's no denying this.

00:54:31.640 Now, as for the claim that

00:54:32.480 children don't get these

00:54:33.440 procedures, that is, for one

00:54:35.300 thing, a lie.

00:54:36.700 Minor girls do, in fact, have

00:54:38.160 their breasts removed.

00:54:39.420 It's very common.

00:54:40.500 Happens all the time.

00:54:41.500 Minor boys have even had their

00:54:43.100 penises mutilated.

00:54:44.400 That also happens.

00:54:45.780 But even if that weren't

00:54:46.740 happening, still, children are

00:54:49.120 being conditioned to make

00:54:51.060 those choices, quote-unquote,

00:54:52.620 later on in life.

00:54:53.500 They're being put on that

00:54:54.540 path, even though they don't

00:54:55.940 understand the path they're on.

00:54:57.800 And even if most boys aren't

00:54:59.460 being physically altered

00:55:00.440 through surgery, they are being

00:55:01.940 given puberty blockers like

00:55:03.580 Lupron, which is chemical

00:55:05.040 castration.

00:55:06.480 The same drug used to

00:55:07.640 chemically castrate sex

00:55:08.500 offenders.

00:55:09.060 So your argument, Sam, is that

00:55:10.760 the boys aren't being

00:55:11.500 surgically castrated.

00:55:12.700 They're just being chemically

00:55:13.860 castrated.

00:55:15.420 And even that argument, as

00:55:16.780 insane as it is, is also

00:55:19.420 factually wrong.

00:55:21.100 The truth is that both things

00:55:22.360 are happening.

00:55:24.220 Now we turn to YouTuber

00:55:25.660 Justin Freakin.

00:55:27.660 The guy's, you know, he's a

00:55:28.780 formidable voice in the

00:55:29.580 culture.

00:55:29.960 He has 6,000 subscribers,

00:55:32.140 averages easily over 30

00:55:33.460 views per video, and his

00:55:34.760 channel description promises,

00:55:35.960 quote, uncensored and

00:55:37.260 unfiltered political talk and

00:55:38.560 debate from a leftist

00:55:39.480 perspective, the day's top

00:55:40.940 news stories and videos with

00:55:42.220 astute social commentary.

00:55:44.140 I'm not sure if we can trust

00:55:45.300 the part of astute social,

00:55:46.340 the part about, you know,

00:55:47.500 astute social commentary.

00:55:48.780 I don't know about that.

00:55:49.360 We'll find out in a minute.

00:55:50.380 But we can be confident that

00:55:51.540 it's uncensored.

00:55:52.860 If this guy's a leftist, then

00:55:54.100 certainly we can be assured

00:55:55.120 that he has not been

00:55:56.340 censored.

00:55:57.040 So let's bring, let's see

00:55:58.380 what he brings to the table.

00:56:00.720 Not as insane as Matt

00:56:02.860 Walsh from the Daily Wire

00:56:04.360 releasing a children's book.

00:56:08.540 Here is Matt Walsh,

00:56:09.940 apparently getting some

00:56:12.380 children together for story

00:56:15.180 hour with sweet baby, Matt

00:56:18.860 Walsh.

00:56:23.040 Okay.

00:56:24.640 Hello, boys and girls.

00:56:26.060 Yeah, the kids look about as

00:56:27.600 enthused as we are.

00:56:29.740 He didn't draw the cartoons,

00:56:32.740 and that's the main part of

00:56:35.000 the book.

00:56:35.640 Like, passing yourself off

00:56:41.140 as the author of this stupid

00:56:42.800 book is insane.

00:56:44.780 Because you know what

00:56:45.500 this book is?

00:56:46.600 This book is a actual

00:56:48.060 talented illustrator.

00:56:51.400 And then some dumb

00:56:52.500 words on top of it.

00:56:55.980 Honestly, I don't know why

00:56:56.880 this guy doesn't get more views.

00:56:58.120 I mean, he's like

00:56:58.600 Macho Man Randy Savage.

00:57:00.540 If Macho Man Randy Savage

00:57:02.040 could only bench press

00:57:03.860 45 pounds and was a hippie.

00:57:07.580 But Randy has exposed

00:57:08.460 a startling truth that I did

00:57:10.220 not illustrate my own

00:57:11.140 children's book.

00:57:11.720 I have tried to keep this

00:57:12.660 hidden by putting the

00:57:14.140 illustrator's name on the

00:57:14.860 cover.

00:57:15.180 I was hoping to hide it in

00:57:15.980 plain sight.

00:57:16.740 And my plan almost worked

00:57:18.600 until Seth Rogen's

00:57:19.900 unemployed cousin foiled the

00:57:21.000 plot.

00:57:22.360 All right, let's finish this

00:57:23.340 up with a somewhat larger

00:57:24.500 account.

00:57:24.840 This is Valsh or Valsh.

00:57:26.400 I don't know how to

00:57:26.740 pronounce his name.

00:57:28.000 386,000 subscribers.

00:57:29.120 His video is titled

00:57:30.020 Matt Walsh Reads His New

00:57:31.440 Anti-Trans Book to Kids.

00:57:32.720 And I am incredibly

00:57:33.840 uncomfortable.

00:57:34.880 And the video has done

00:57:35.420 pretty well for him.

00:57:35.980 It's got nearly 150,000

00:57:37.120 views.

00:57:38.000 Let's skip ahead to, I

00:57:39.280 think, what is, I guess,

00:57:40.300 the crux of his argument

00:57:41.680 against my book.

00:57:43.900 Wait, what is the lesson

00:57:45.520 at the...

00:57:46.240 Wait, so wait, now is he

00:57:47.600 bird gender?

00:57:48.320 Wait, what is the...

00:57:49.880 What does any of this

00:57:51.160 mean?

00:57:53.680 What does any of this

00:57:55.300 s*** mean, man?

00:57:57.900 No, he said earlier

00:57:58.800 people online told his mom

00:58:00.200 a well-meaning mother was

00:58:01.320 duped by evil transgender

00:58:02.580 SJWs.

00:58:03.260 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:58:03.680 Okay, but, like, what

00:58:04.780 about the kid?

00:58:06.060 Like, the kid didn't seem...

00:58:07.740 After the kid said, I am a

00:58:09.880 walrus, woo-woo, and had a

00:58:11.700 picture taken of him, the

00:58:13.180 kid had no input

00:58:14.500 whatsoever.

00:58:15.140 Did the kid want to eat

00:58:16.320 the worms?

00:58:16.860 If not, why didn't he

00:58:17.940 stop?

00:58:18.380 Was the kid like, I don't

00:58:20.240 want to eat the worms, and

00:58:21.360 the mom was like, no, you

00:58:22.240 have to.

00:58:22.820 The people on Instagram

00:58:23.860 said that you have to, or

00:58:25.160 I'm a big...

00:58:25.700 Like, I don't want to dig

00:58:28.840 into this too hard, because

00:58:29.900 it's obviously really stupid,

00:58:31.420 but I am genuinely astounded

00:58:32.800 by the incompetence with

00:58:33.960 which this was put together.

00:58:35.120 Like, they paid an artist,

00:58:36.900 they had it published, like,

00:58:38.580 it's on sale, like, how do

00:58:40.060 you not put a little more

00:58:41.720 effort, not even just the

00:58:44.580 quality of the art, but,

00:58:45.860 like, the language used

00:58:47.060 betrays such an incredible

00:58:48.580 incompetence in using

00:58:50.060 allegory to deliver a

00:58:51.720 political message.

00:58:52.520 That's true, I'm not good

00:58:55.200 with language.

00:58:55.940 I mean, we can't all be

00:58:56.640 wordsmiths, like Vouch here,

00:58:58.400 who says things like, the

00:58:59.380 language used betrays such

00:59:00.800 an incredible incompetence

00:59:01.940 in using allegory to

00:59:02.980 deliver a political

00:59:03.620 message.

00:59:04.620 Dude, why do you speak in

00:59:05.780 real life like you're a

00:59:06.620 ninth grader writing a book

00:59:07.580 report and trying to hit a

00:59:08.480 minimum word count?

00:59:10.180 You think it's a bad

00:59:11.140 allegory, just say that.

00:59:13.360 Though I'm not sure how you

00:59:14.060 could judge the competence of

00:59:15.240 the story or the allegory,

00:59:16.560 considering you, by your

00:59:17.300 own admission, don't

00:59:18.160 understand the point.

00:59:19.460 You're a grown adult who

00:59:20.360 failed to grasp the

00:59:21.140 extremely simple message in a

00:59:22.480 rhyming children's book

00:59:23.540 written on cardboard for

00:59:24.620 preschoolers.

00:59:25.920 And somehow you think that

00:59:27.180 your failures of reading

00:59:28.360 comprehension are an

00:59:29.380 embarrassment to me.

00:59:31.380 I mean, I am embarrassed

00:59:32.260 watching this, but the

00:59:33.260 embarrassment is of the

00:59:34.140 secondhand variety, I assure

00:59:35.500 you.

00:59:36.600 The good news is that you

00:59:38.940 seem to have almost

00:59:40.160 understood the point.

00:59:41.500 So you got to the 10-yard

00:59:42.840 line intellectually before

00:59:43.900 you fumbled the mental

00:59:44.700 football.

00:59:45.600 You nearly made it all the

00:59:47.080 way there.

00:59:47.760 Because you note how in the

00:59:49.100 story, the mom is the

00:59:50.360 focus, while the child,

00:59:51.860 Johnny, has little input into

00:59:54.320 his own alleged lifestyle

00:59:55.460 choice.

00:59:56.660 He's doing things, he's

00:59:57.840 walking down a certain path,

00:59:58.820 but it doesn't really seem

00:59:59.840 like he's choosing to go in

01:00:01.420 that direction.

01:00:02.900 Yes, Voush, that's the

01:00:04.300 point.

01:00:05.800 That's exactly the point.

01:00:08.140 That's what we're going for.

01:00:09.680 The fact that Johnny's mommy

01:00:11.020 is really the main character

01:00:12.540 in a story that's ostensibly

01:00:14.620 about Johnny himself is not an

01:00:16.020 accident.

01:00:17.020 That's a bit of intentional

01:00:18.180 irony.

01:00:18.660 Very much an intentional,

01:00:20.780 creative decision by the

01:00:22.700 brilliant author of this

01:00:23.720 book, which is available at

01:00:24.600 johnnythewalrus.com.

01:00:25.740 It's almost as if I'm trying

01:00:28.300 to make the point that

01:00:30.420 transgenderism among children

01:00:31.480 is, once again, an

01:00:32.640 invention of the adults

01:00:34.440 around them.

01:00:35.540 No child can actually choose

01:00:37.060 this path.

01:00:37.640 They don't have the

01:00:38.160 psychological and emotional

01:00:39.120 formation required to make

01:00:40.600 an informed decision about

01:00:41.580 fundamentally altering their

01:00:42.440 identities.

01:00:43.620 Any child, therefore, who does

01:00:45.580 make such a decision,

01:00:46.520 decision, quote-unquote, has

01:00:48.240 been, by definition, pushed

01:00:49.680 and pulled that way by the

01:00:51.860 grown-ups in their lives.

01:00:53.760 Do you understand now?

01:00:55.360 Because I literally can't make

01:00:56.900 it any simpler or plainer than

01:00:58.460 that.

01:00:59.320 The book is written at a

01:01:00.400 reading level for kids who

01:01:01.580 barely know how to read.

01:01:03.360 So if that's still above your

01:01:04.680 intellectual pay grade, I'm

01:01:06.040 afraid there's not much else I

01:01:07.560 can do.

01:01:08.920 Except say that you're

01:01:10.900 canceled.

01:01:12.160 Along with fake Randy Savage,

01:01:13.580 Sam Collins, the rest of the

01:01:14.640 YouTube hordes, who have all

01:01:16.220 tried and failed to take down

01:01:18.100 my book, Johnny the Walrus,
