The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 923 - The Groomers Are Loud And Proud

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wells Show, New York City attempts to lure all of the groomers who are

00:00:03.640 upset about Florida's anti-grooming law. Meanwhile, the sexual indoctrinators in the

00:00:07.440 public school system continue to out themselves in droves, another benefit of the Florida law.

00:00:12.040 Also, D.C. authorities continue to refuse to investigate the murder of five fully developed

00:00:16.400 infants in the city. And you heard about corn pop. Now Biden has a story to share about Big

00:00:21.320 Mama. Plus, Oreos go woken. And our daily cancellation, Madonna has apparently turned

00:00:25.620 into some kind of lizard. But it's better than looking old, she thinks. We'll talk about all

00:00:29.500 that and more today on the Matt Wells Show.

00:00:40.320 You know, dealing with finances might not be an enjoyable experience. But on the other hand,

00:00:45.780 seeing my expenses decrease and my savings increase, well, that is an enjoyable and rewarding experience.

00:00:50.940 And these days, it's also necessary for so many people to save all the money that you can. I've

00:00:55.700 been saving hundreds a month after refinancing my mortgage with American Financing since

00:00:59.460 working with them. I've been able to put more money away towards family vacations and other

00:01:03.260 financial goals that we have. With interest rates being so low, it would be a mistake, I think, to

00:01:07.780 not give them a call. What are you waiting for? Take advantage of a free mortgage review where a

00:01:12.560 salary-based mortgage consultant will help guide you through all the different refinancing options

00:01:16.580 available to you. There's no pressure, no obligation. You're not going to be on the hook. All you got to

00:01:20.580 do is just have a simple conversation about custom loans that will help you achieve your goals

00:01:24.140 faster. And if you start soon, you can skip up to two payments, and you may close in as fast as 10

00:01:28.760 days. All you got to do is call 866-569-4711. That's 866-569-4711. Or visit AmericanFinancing.net.

00:01:43.000 Last month, an astrophysicist at NASA named Alex Howe published a paper proposing an ambitious and

00:01:50.740 possibly insane idea to build human colonies on Venus. Of course, temperatures on the planet

00:01:56.440 routinely make it up to about 800 degrees with 200 mile per hour winds and a poisonous atmosphere

00:02:01.960 95% comprised of carbon dioxide. Seems like a rather inhospitable place for human life. But Howe's plan

00:02:07.680 anyway is still to construct giant floating rafts that would hover far above the most toxic part of 0.71

00:02:14.360 the planet. There would be big machines converting the upper layer of the atmosphere into breathable

00:02:20.200 air, and you would just kind of live up there on the big raft, drifting above the hellish abyss, hoping

00:02:26.020 that, you know, the machines don't malfunction or run out of gas, given especially that the nearest gas

00:02:30.500 station would be approximately 75 million miles away. Now, I bring this up because I think it could be a

00:02:37.220 great alternative for the people in our country who are so disturbed and mortified by the anti-groomer

00:02:43.140 movement in Florida and across the country. Perhaps for the people who adamantly oppose efforts to

00:02:48.740 protect children and who openly desire to turn little five-year-olds into genderqueer bisexuals,

00:02:54.380 it would ultimately be best if they kind of form their own settlements as far away from the rest of

00:02:58.660 human civilization as possible. Venus is basically hell already, so it seems like an appropriate location,

00:03:03.760 and it's where they're all headed anyway when it comes down to it. So, you know, we could just cut

00:03:08.580 to the chase and they could hurl themselves directly into the sun. That would be a more than acceptable

00:03:13.100 compromise, I think. Now, until we have the technology and logistical capability, though, to explore those

00:03:19.100 alternatives, I think the one offered this week by Mayor Eric Adams in New York might be the best

00:03:24.720 option. So the mayor's office posted this on Monday on Twitter. It says,

00:03:28.980 breaking. New York City mayor announces a new digital billboard campaign in five Florida markets

00:03:34.480 denouncing the hateful don't say gay law and inviting Floridians to move to New York.

00:03:40.420 And as you can see, the billboard says that it says the word gay over and over again,

00:03:44.660 and it invites groomers to come to the city where you can say whatever you want.

00:03:51.160 Of course, that's not a universal invitation. I mean, not anybody can say whatever they want. For

00:03:56.220 example, they certainly don't want you to come to New York City and say that men can't get pregnant 0.99

00:04:01.140 or women don't have penises. They don't want to hear that. There are many basic truths that these 0.99

00:04:06.320 latter-day flat earthers do not want you to say in New York City or anywhere else. No, they're

00:04:11.160 specifically recruiting the sorts of people who want to say sexually confusing things to preschoolers.

00:04:17.480 That's what they're going after. New York, by the way, can't stop homeless drug addicts from 0.85

00:04:23.320 randomly tossing women in front of trains on the subway. But rather than focus on that problem 0.97

00:04:28.240 or all the drugs, all the crime and everything, they're busy running a recruitment drive for

00:04:32.000 pedophiles. Here's the mayor himself making his sales pitch to the groomers of Florida. Listen.

00:04:38.500 That's what this movement of don't say gay is about. This political showmanship of attempting to

00:04:47.900 demonize a particular group or community is unacceptable. And we are going to loudly show

00:04:55.020 our support and say to those who are living in Florida, listen, we want you here in New York.

00:04:59.600 You know, we want you right here in New York City. And it's more than just saying that. It's also

00:05:05.620 standing up and aligning ourselves with the men and women of the LGBTQ plus community and stating that

00:05:12.480 we are in unison with you and your right to have self-identification, your right to be live the

00:05:22.100 lifestyle and live the lives that you choose to live. You know, I love this idea personally. Adam

00:05:28.760 says his appeal is to LGBT people, but that's that's not the case. The bill in Florida has nothing at all

00:05:35.040 to do with LGBT people at all. It very specifically targets the sexual indoctrination of young children

00:05:41.300 children and forbids any school employee, gay or straight or whatever else, from engaging in such

00:05:48.020 activities. So it is those people, those who want to sexually indoctrinate children, who Adams is really

00:05:53.440 trying to entice here. And it sounds great to me. I mean, in fact, as a Tennessean, I'd like to

00:05:58.260 personally invite the mayor to launch a similar billboard campaign in my state in order to lure our

00:06:03.060 groomers to New York. I think it's great. The normal people of America are fully on board with any plan

00:06:08.400 to round these people up, consolidate them and get them all in one place. After all, at this point, New York

00:06:15.120 City really isn't much different from Venus from a sort of quality of life perspective anyway. Now, this is one

00:06:21.620 of the best things, I think, about the legislation. It has had the probably unintended effect of flushing the

00:06:27.880 groomers out into the open. The aftermath of this bill is it's like the sidewalk after a rainstorm. All the worms have

00:06:34.660 slithered out of their holes. You can practically smell them. They're announcing themselves to the

00:06:38.980 world. Like, for example, here's this this woman here, a preschool drag king who's very upset about 1.00

00:06:45.160 the law. Let's listen to her. So because I've been getting this question a lot lately, I am going to

00:06:50.360 use this space to answer it. And that is, as a preschool teacher, a drag king, and as a member of the 0.80

00:06:57.080 LGBTQ community, how do I feel about the new legislations for, like, the Don't Say Gay Bill, or

00:07:07.400 the reporting of transgender kids? And while I don't see things like that too much in preschool,

00:07:15.200 my opinion on it is that I don't care what the government tells me to do.

00:07:21.240 I am going to do what I think is best for the health and safety, and that includes mental health

00:07:29.780 and safety, and emotional health and safety of my kids. I will never let any child come through my

00:07:35.940 classroom feeling unloved or ashamed for who they are. And I don't know what's more concerning, that

00:07:41.860 she's out of breath from simply talking, or that she wants to talk to four-year-olds about their

00:07:46.580 sexuality. On second thought, the latter is definitely the most concerning. The former is her own health

00:07:51.020 issue that I hope she gets checked out. But she, as with many other teachers, has, you know, made

00:07:56.020 herself known. All for the best, I think. Same goes for this guy. He's a fifth-grade teacher who's

00:08:01.340 very excited to make this announcement. Listen.

00:08:04.580 I ended up telling my students that I was gay. And how it came up was one of the students,

00:08:14.740 I was like, you know, my mom thinks that you're gay because of your voice. And I'm like, maybe,

00:08:18.580 maybe not. So, so they were asking me if I was, because I kind of alluded that I was. So I kind

00:08:25.080 of let them wonder and ponder on it. And I have like, you know, like the LGBT promotional, like,

00:08:34.380 this is a safe community kind of stuff, the rainbow stuff all up in my room. And I told them,

00:08:40.060 I'm like, if you look around the room, that should give you an answer to your question.

00:08:43.800 So I did officially tell them. They, of course, went berserk. So instead of teaching social studies

00:08:50.680 today, they just asked me a whole bunch of questions about being gay. So I think it was

00:08:55.080 pretty well. So instead of teaching the subject that he was hired to teach, they instead, the class

00:09:01.420 instead discussed his sexuality for 45 minutes. Now, he tries to pawn responsibility for this

00:09:07.800 distraction off onto the kids themselves, claiming that one of them asked him about his sexuality.

00:09:12.520 It makes you wonder about the environment in that classroom that they all felt it appropriate to

00:09:16.200 talk about in the first place. But even if that's true, the appropriate response from an adult is to

00:09:21.160 remind the student that they're in class to learn about social studies and conversations should be

00:09:25.800 relegated to that topic, not his personal life. But of course, there's a reason that the students felt

00:09:31.880 it appropriate to bring this up if they did in fact bring it up. The teacher admits that he has gay 0.91

00:09:36.720 paraphernalia draped all over the classroom. Now, if he had Star Wars posters plastered all over the 0.92

00:09:42.180 walls and a student asked him about Star Wars, it wouldn't be fair to say that the student brought

00:09:47.040 up the subject. He brought it up by making his whole classroom into a Star Wars shrine, just as, in this

00:09:53.900 case, he had made his classroom into a shrine to his own sexual proclivities. And speaking of shrines, by the

00:10:00.380 way, I continue to have to observe that if he had Christian images all over his classroom, crucifixes and

00:10:08.860 everything else, and signs, calling students to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, that he'd be fired for

00:10:16.140 that. That would be considered a constitutional violation of the separation of church and state. Well, how is this any

00:10:21.880 different? You know, the pride flag is his religion. But he puts it up there. He's just waiting for one of the 0.97

00:10:29.160 children to notice all the stuff so that he'd have an excuse to spend an entire class talking about it,

00:10:34.640 talking about himself. And now he's announced it to the world and offered this public confession. I think

00:10:40.700 it's all for the best. Now, a teacher in Kansas, meanwhile, has come up with what he believes is a strong

00:10:47.100 defense of sexually indoctrinating kindergartners. You got to listen to this argument to believe it.

00:10:52.400 Although even after you listen to it, you won't believe it. But here it is. Listen.

00:10:56.780 They've been exposed to information. They're ready to learn about it, whether you think they are or not.

00:11:01.300 And the research says that there is no age too young to talk about pretty much anything. If they know

00:11:06.520 about it, they're ready to learn about it. Right. So there is no, you know, what we think is always

00:11:13.020 age appropriate. It is if they don't know about it. They haven't been exposed to it. And yeah, you can

00:11:18.360 give them time to develop. But once they're exposed to it and social media is going to do it.

00:11:24.700 Right. I know some kindergartners in the school with cell phones. Mine had a cell phone. And so

00:11:31.160 they get access to information. They can learn quickly. The world is teaching them faster than

00:11:36.880 probably you are. And so the extent to which we can have conversations with parents around

00:11:42.860 how do we want to approach talking about LGBTQ plus because there are students as early as

00:11:52.320 kindergarten who are identifying as non-gender conforming, non-binary, transgender. And so

00:12:04.160 because they're in our school, they're in our classrooms, then that becomes a responsibility

00:12:09.160 on the adults to say, OK, I have a student who identifies this way. And so it's my responsibility

00:12:16.920 to make sure the classroom is inviting to them, just like it is to someone who might be Asian,

00:12:24.720 Laotian, Korean, African, whatever the identity is.

00:12:31.100 The research says there's no age too young to talk about pretty much anything, he says.

00:12:37.400 There are kindergartners who are gender non-conforming, non-binary, and transgender,

00:12:43.400 he claims. The world has already exposed them to this stuff anyway, he declares.

00:12:48.640 Now, every part of this is false backwards, contrary to common sense and moral decency.

00:12:53.420 There is no age. I mean, what? There's no age too young to talk about anything.

00:12:59.160 So a child's brain from birth is capable of processing and understanding anything at all?

00:13:05.020 OK, well, then why aren't we giving calculus lessons in preschool?

00:13:09.800 Why don't we have graphic historical lectures about the Holocaust in kindergarten,

00:13:14.120 complete with photographs from Auschwitz?

00:13:16.900 No age is too young, right?

00:13:19.500 And if children aren't too young for any concept, then why do we have age of consent laws?

00:13:26.060 I mean, consent is mental. It's a psychological thing.

00:13:28.880 It's a psychological assent to engage in a certain activity.

00:13:34.120 That's what consent is.

00:13:35.900 Our current laws assume that children do not have the psychological and mental formation required

00:13:40.760 to give fully informed consent, which they don't.

00:13:44.100 But according to his logic, should we get rid of that too?

00:13:47.700 Well, it's a rhetorical question. No need to answer it.

00:13:49.360 I already know the answer.

00:13:50.240 The answer from the groomers, at least to the last question, is yes, we should get rid of it.

00:13:56.420 Now, that might not be their explicit verbal answer right now, but they'll get there.

00:14:01.700 The current controversy is pushing them ever faster and further to that final mask-off moment.

00:14:08.820 These people, what you have to understand is that they're at war with not just children,

00:14:14.040 but childhood itself as a concept.

00:14:16.220 They despise innocence and purity in any form, especially the innocence and purity of childhood.

00:14:24.160 They see it as something that has to be destroyed, consumed, obliterated, and replaced with something else,

00:14:31.980 something that's broken and damaged, as broken and damaged as themselves.

00:14:37.760 Now, let's get to our five headlines.

00:14:39.200 You know, we've been talking a lot lately about inflation.

00:14:48.460 And here's one thing that you should know.

00:14:49.540 When inflation is at 7%, like it is now, that paper money in your wallet is losing value fast.

00:14:55.580 And you could just feel your wallet getting lighter and lighter if you have any cash in it to begin with,

00:14:59.800 which I never do.

00:15:00.840 But also, we know that Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine has now worsened the market's slow decline.

00:15:05.460 And it's just bad on top of bad.

00:15:07.280 But today, an ounce of gold is worth $1,900.

00:15:10.660 It was worth about $300 an ounce in 2000.

00:15:13.460 I've been telling you for a while now that you can buy gold from Birch Gold.

00:15:16.520 It's your hedge against inflation.

00:15:18.160 But did you know there's another way to hedge against inflation?

00:15:20.500 That is buy silver from Birch Gold.

00:15:23.200 Silver is also considered real money.

00:15:25.360 And historically speaking, it's extremely undervalued right now.

00:15:28.780 It's an industrial metal that's in high demand for everything from electric cars to solar panels.

00:15:33.180 Demand is only going to rise.

00:15:35.400 And some analysts suggest that there's an unusual dislocation in price

00:15:38.580 that may present very real opportunities for silver to rally over the next two years.

00:15:42.660 Regardless, silver, like gold, is never going to zero.

00:15:45.100 So call Birch Gold.

00:15:46.080 They're the only company I trust.

00:15:47.600 Don't wait.

00:15:48.100 Start diversifying.

00:15:49.240 Text Walsh to 989898 to get a free info kit of buying gold or silver in a tax-sheltered account.

00:15:54.500 There's no obligation to get this info.

00:15:56.280 Text Walsh to 9898 to get your free info kit now.

00:15:59.640 You notice the contradiction, too, by the way.

00:16:02.820 I mean, there's contradictions all over the place when they get into this stuff about the so-called Don't Say Gay Bill.

00:16:09.100 But they also proclaim that, on one hand, you know, no one's talking about this stuff in the schools anyway.

00:16:15.940 So it's irrelevant.

00:16:17.260 It's not a conversation that comes up.

00:16:18.840 But then we also hear from that teacher a minute ago.

00:16:25.080 He says that, well, we have gender non-conforming and transgender kindergartners.

00:16:32.920 Now, that simply did not exist prior to five years ago.

00:16:39.320 And literally anyone who went to kindergarten up until a few years ago can attest to this.

00:16:49.380 I mean, just try to find one adult today and ask them, did you have any transgenders in your kindergarten class with you?

00:16:56.740 The answer is going to be no, none.

00:16:59.380 And now, according to this teacher, they're all over the place.

00:17:01.860 And I actually believe that.

00:17:05.220 I mean, I believe it's now, of course, in reality, there are no transgender kindergartners that can't actually exist.

00:17:10.400 But there are many kindergartners who are confused about their gender.

00:17:15.040 And so on one hand, they tell us that, well, we've got all these, quote, trans kindergartners.

00:17:19.860 But on the other hand, we don't talk about it in the class.

00:17:22.500 So this is a non-issue.

00:17:23.480 Well, how did we end up with so many if you don't talk about it?

00:17:26.500 This is precisely how we've ended up in this position where we have all these kids who are confused in the first place because you are indoctrinating them into it at a young age.

00:17:38.220 And it's a self-perpetuating thing, right?

00:17:40.240 It's a circular kind of logic to it where they say that, well, we don't talk about it, but they've already been exposed, so we might as well talk about it.

00:17:46.500 And then we talk about it, which means that more are exposed.

00:17:48.600 And, well, they've been exposed, so we might as well talk about it.

00:17:50.540 Around and around we go.

00:17:53.020 Now, a little bit more on this.

00:17:54.040 The White House yesterday was asked by the only real reporter in the room at these White House briefings, Peter Doocy, about the bill and whether or not specifically.

00:18:03.740 I think it's a very good question.

00:18:04.720 I'm glad that Peter Doocy asked it.

00:18:06.220 Of course, he wasn't going to get an answer about it, but you have to try anyway.

00:18:09.300 He wants to know, does the White House think that kindergartners should actually be taught about things like transgenderism?

00:18:16.700 And here is the non-response he was given.

00:18:19.280 One about this new law in Florida.

00:18:22.040 At what age does the White House think that students should be taught about sexual orientation and gender identity?

00:18:28.520 Well, I would say, first of all, Peter, we have spoken to the Don't Say Gay bill in the past, I believe is what you're referring to.

00:18:37.720 And made clear that as we look at this law, what we think it's a reflection of is politicians in Florida propagating misinformed, hateful policies that do absolutely nothing to address the real issues.

00:18:53.560 The Department of Education is well positioned and ready to evaluate what to do next and its implementation, whether its implementation violates federal civil rights law.

00:19:06.580 But I would note that parents across the country are looking to, you know, national, state, and district leaders to support our nation's students, to ensure that kids are treated equally in schools.

00:19:20.760 And that is certainly not, this is not a reflection of that.

00:19:23.140 And so, just the last one.

00:19:24.700 So, if you guys oppose this law that bans classroom instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity in K through 3, does the White House support that kind of classroom instruction before kindergarten?

00:19:37.540 Do you have examples of schools in Florida that are teaching kindergarteners about sex education?

00:19:43.340 I'm just asking for the president.

00:19:44.500 Well, I think that's a, I think that's a relevant question because I think this is a politically charged, harsh law that is putting parents and LGBTQ plus kids in a very difficult, heartbreaking circumstance.

00:20:00.140 And so, I actually think that's a pretty relevant question.

00:20:03.740 Well, two completely contradictory points here that she gets.

00:20:07.160 That makes no sense.

00:20:08.360 So, on one hand, it's an attack on human rights.

00:20:10.800 And this is a horrible, harsh thing that is causing so much trauma to LGBT people across Florida and across the entire world.

00:20:19.440 So, that's on one hand.

00:20:20.500 On the other hand, it is outlawing something that never happens anyway, she claims.

00:20:25.700 So, then why are you so upset about it?

00:20:26.940 If it's true that it's outlawing something that never happens anyway, then, I mean, you can argue, you can make a similar argument to the one that I made against the anti-lynching law, which is that this is an unnecessary law, it's all virtue signaling, whatever.

00:20:38.720 So, you can make that law, you can make that argument.

00:20:42.260 It would be a false argument in this case that was true when it comes to the anti-lynching law.

00:20:46.260 But those are two different arguments.

00:20:48.260 How can it be both?

00:20:49.560 How can it be a law that, on one hand, does nothing, and on the other hand, infringes on civil rights?

00:20:54.300 If it's infringing on civil rights, then it must be doing something, and then you have to ask, well, what exactly is it doing?

00:21:00.180 Because all the law does, according to the language, is prohibit classroom instruction on these topics from K through third grade.

00:21:06.460 So, in the same breath, in the same answer, she has two different conflicting narratives about this law. 1.00

00:21:17.240 And she's hoping that everybody is too stupid to notice, and unfortunately, the fact is that at least half of the country, or almost half, really is too stupid to notice. 1.00

00:21:24.960 Or too distracted to notice, at any rate. 1.00

00:21:31.360 Okay, one other thing, before we move on, I've got to play this for you, too.

00:21:35.060 Just because this is another one of those situations where I was subjected to it, and now I have to, you know, I have to spread the misery around, because misery loves company.

00:21:41.880 And here is someone who describes themselves as an actor and a comedian.

00:21:48.000 You wouldn't really know from this, but this is a video that went viral of his own musical protest against the bill.

00:21:55.600 Let's all suffer through this together.

00:21:58.400 Gosh, I'd hate to upset your Republican peers.

00:22:02.340 So let me say the soft so no one hears.

00:22:07.100 I've always been.

00:22:10.680 Here's an interesting fact.

00:22:12.600 Gay! 0.99

00:22:14.180 Oops, I said it. 0.99

00:22:15.420 I'm gay! 0.98

00:22:17.720 You can bet it's a badge that I wear with a fabulous flag, because I'm gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay. 0.98

00:22:25.380 Yeah, we know, bud. 0.98

00:22:26.680 We know.

00:22:27.740 You don't need to.

00:22:29.080 That's one thing I love about so many of these things, that people are coming out shouting,

00:22:33.100 I'm gay!

00:22:34.080 Like, okay, well, no one ever said you can't say that.

00:22:36.780 But also, you know, we know.

00:22:41.240 But thank you for announcing it in any case.

00:22:43.400 All right, here's an update on the story from yesterday, the story we led the show with yesterday.

00:22:48.340 An important story that's being largely ignored, certainly by mass media.

00:22:53.520 Even a lot of conservative media isn't giving us the attention it needs and deserves.

00:22:58.680 But the Daily Wire has the update.

00:23:00.200 The Washington, D.C. medical examiner said that it will not be performing autopsies on bodies of aborted babies that were turned into police last week.

00:23:07.860 Pro-life activists and medical professionals say that the bodies show signs of illegal and gruesome abortion procedures.

00:23:13.420 And these activists fear that the bodies will be incinerated before proper autopsies can be conducted.

00:23:19.280 Live-Actions Director of Government Affairs told the Daily Wire on Monday,

00:23:23.220 quote, one of the worst injustices would be if the medical examiner and D.C. government dispose or incinerate the bodies of these children before a full autopsy can be completed.

00:23:30.960 He said, quote, the abortionists do not want autopsies performed because they may indicate violations of federal law.

00:23:38.720 D.C. must preserve these remains until a full, fair, and thorough investigation can be completed.

00:23:44.160 Now, to remind you about the story, this is a pro-life group.

00:23:49.980 I forget the name of it.

00:23:50.760 The Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising Group.

00:23:53.780 One of the members of that group obtained the bodies of five children who are victims of abortion and obtained these bodies from a whistleblower, apparently, within the clinic.

00:24:08.120 And according to that whistleblower, these babies were killed in illegal procedures, whether it's partial birth abortion, which is supposedly illegal,

00:24:16.420 or even there's evidence that you can plainly see if you see the pictures, as many people did over the weekend,

00:24:25.720 the kind of pictures that are seared into your mind forever and you never forget.

00:24:29.580 But you can plainly see the evidence that even potentially these were abortions that occurred after birth.

00:24:37.640 Now, by the way, the distinction between a partial birth abortion and an after birth abortion, a post-birth abortion, are semantics at best.

00:24:48.720 Partial birth abortion, the baby is being killed as he emerges from the birth canal.

00:24:53.640 Like, part of his body is out of the birth canal, and then his skull is crushed or, you know, something, basically a vacuum is stuck into his skull and his brains are sucked out of his body.

00:25:10.100 I mean, that's how these procedures are carried out.

00:25:11.740 That's the reality of it.

00:25:14.060 So that's partial birth, which was legal in this country for a long time.

00:25:17.740 So now it's supposedly illegal, and then after birth abortion or post-birth abortion is infanticide, in other words, is just wait for the baby to fully emerge and then kill him.

00:25:26.480 There's no moral distinction at all between the two.

00:25:30.880 There's no medical distinction or physical distinction either.

00:25:34.420 Certainly no scientific distinction.

00:25:36.360 So there's evidence that this is what happened to these babies.

00:25:39.880 The police, once the pro-life group obtained the bodies of these victims, they contacted the police and said, come pick them up.

00:25:52.080 And so far, the police are saying, we're not going to investigate, which, like we talked about yesterday, whether we're talking about abortion victims or anything else,

00:26:02.380 you're given the bodies of five dead people, wouldn't you want to do an autopsy to figure out how they died?

00:26:12.420 Isn't that the first thing you would do?

00:26:14.080 Well, not according to the police, anyway.

00:26:15.940 Here's Executive Assistant Chief of Police, Sean Benedict, explaining that although they were just made aware of these victims,

00:26:25.420 they still have just decided already that everything is fine and there's really nothing to investigate.

00:26:29.980 Listen.

00:26:30.140 In regards to the house that was found with numerous fetuses today, can you confirm if that is the home of Lauren Handy's

00:26:37.800 and do you have any idea on how those fetuses got there and if you all have been working with other authorities across the country?

00:26:43.780 Sure.

00:26:44.200 So there's a couple of, there's two different things going on here.

00:26:47.800 Ms. Handy has been indicted on a federal investigation led by the FBI that MPD was not a part of.

00:26:54.900 So that's number one.

00:26:55.940 The second piece is that we were led to that house that you mentioned.

00:27:00.140 We did recover items that were, these are preliminary results.

00:27:04.480 OCME looked at, took a look at those items.

00:27:06.800 They are, have been confirmed as fetuses.

00:27:10.600 What we're seeing now is they, those fetuses were aborted in accordance with D.C. law.

00:27:15.120 So we are not investigating this incident along those lines.

00:27:19.740 It doesn't speak to anything criminal in nature right now about that except for how they got into this house.

00:27:26.180 And so we'll continue to look at that.

00:27:27.400 With that being said, are you working with authorities in other states with how they got here to the D.C. area?

00:27:32.540 This is very early on, and I think the FBI's case may touch on interstate, but at this point, we're, we're about a day into this.

00:27:40.620 I don't know if that doesn't make your blood boil.

00:27:42.840 Well, then you have no soul.

00:27:46.200 He's, he's referring to dead children, dead babies as items.

00:27:51.900 He says, oh, we obtained the items.

00:27:54.400 Well, I ask you, would he ever talk about, you know, the victims of a car crash or a mass shooting?

00:28:05.840 If there's a mass shooting at a mall somewhere, and he's talking about recovering the bodies, would he say, oh, yeah, well, we obtained 15 items.

00:28:16.100 That's how he's talking about these children, because he does not recognize the children as being human beings.

00:28:20.540 He doesn't recognize them as people.

00:28:21.700 And as far as he's concerned, even though you have Ted, you have, you have five children who have been brutally killed.

00:28:34.140 For him, the only crime worth investigating is not how they were killed, but how they ended up, how they were discovered.

00:28:41.420 The crime is in the discovering of the crime.

00:28:45.300 Pretty common theme when it comes to the abortion industry.

00:28:47.760 Like we talked about yesterday, it's the same thing with the Center for Medical Progress.

00:28:51.700 When they conducted an undercover investigation and revealed that Planned Parenthood was chopping up babies and harvesting their organs and selling them for parts like an old vehicle or something, you know.

00:29:03.300 So, and the crime there was not that this was happening, it's that the Center for Medical Progress found out about it.

00:29:10.940 So they're the criminals.

00:29:12.900 Talk about shooting the messenger, almost in a literal sort of way.

00:29:16.040 And he's just decided that we're not even going to look into it.

00:29:22.260 All they did, well, they haven't done an autopsy.

00:29:26.800 So this was just sort of the naked eye test.

00:29:29.780 They looked at the bodies and said, well, no illegal abortion. 0.93

00:29:32.940 There is no way to know that.

00:29:35.060 They cannot possibly know it.

00:29:36.960 No, it's quite the opposite.

00:29:39.680 They fear, they're afraid that there was something illegal that happened.

00:29:45.260 And that if they do the autopsy, they'll discover it and they will have to prosecute a prominent abortionist in the city, which they refuse to do.

00:29:56.680 Because the abortion industry is basically a quasi-governmental agency at this point.

00:30:01.580 And these are, it is protected by the government and funded by the government as if it is the government, as if it's part of the government.

00:30:11.260 And the only hazard in this conversation, and we should be calling, this is something, I mean, all conservatives, I don't care if you're conservative, just if you're a decent person, you should be demanding that this is at least investigated.

00:30:23.320 There is no reason why you wouldn't do an autopsy.

00:30:26.820 Why you just don't feel like it?

00:30:27.900 You got better things to do?

00:30:29.440 You don't have time?

00:30:31.580 The only reason to do it is that you are blatantly trying to cover up a crime.

00:30:38.180 And every decent person should be demanding that that doesn't happen.

00:30:41.960 The only hazard in this conversation is that it obscures the point that even if these were, quote, legal abortions, it's still a horrific crime.

00:30:51.620 Maybe not according to the law books, but that's because the law books themselves are twisted.

00:30:56.620 And the law books need to be changed.

00:30:58.280 So there's a crime, at least a horrific moral crime that occurred one way or another.

00:31:04.020 But either way, there needs to be an investigation.

00:31:10.400 I don't know how I'm still shocked by this kind of thing somehow.

00:31:15.960 Just that they could be so out in the open about it.

00:31:19.940 You might as well hold a press conference and just say to the press that, hey, listen, we don't we're not interested in prosecuting abortionists here.

00:31:28.420 That's not what we do.

00:31:29.740 So whatever he did, not we're not looking into.

00:31:33.480 You might as well say that.

00:31:34.280 They have all but said that.

00:31:38.840 All right, let's move to this.

00:31:40.160 I don't even know how to set this up exactly, but.

00:31:43.380 So I won't.

00:31:44.160 Let's just listen to the latest from Joe Biden.

00:31:46.780 When I was a young senator, I was there was a guy who ran steel from Deamer Steel out to Ohio.

00:31:55.840 And so I decided to ride out with him, see what it was like in the strike.

00:31:59.540 And I was driving, going through Shiloh, Ohio.

00:32:02.460 And and he he was his handle was Big Ten.

00:32:06.280 And remember, everybody, all the truck stops were being blockaded at the time during the strike.

00:32:12.880 And he he called.

00:32:14.920 He said, Big Ten wanting to come in.

00:32:16.540 I forget exactly how he said it.

00:32:18.300 And the only woman truck driver ever knew I met that day.

00:32:21.900 She said, this is Big Mama.

00:32:23.640 No room.

00:32:25.840 Swear to God, true story.

00:32:28.240 Yes.

00:32:29.000 Big Mama had corn pop sitting in the in the passenger seat. 1.00

00:32:32.120 I, you know, I thought before I played that clip, I should look into it to find out the context, because I'm I'm totally mystified by it.

00:32:42.440 I have no idea what the context was, but it actually doesn't matter the context.

00:32:47.060 I think we've learned that by now about Biden, that there's no context that can make any of this make any sense.

00:32:51.580 So we've got corn pop.

00:32:52.880 We've got Big Mama. 1.00

00:32:53.640 Look, this is a this is a man who should be sitting on a porch somewhere in a rocking chair telling stories.

00:33:03.260 That's all he really wants to do anyway.

00:33:05.640 And so he should be sitting on a that's where he belongs is like sitting on a porch in a rocking chair telling stories.

00:33:11.300 And all his grandkids are listening and saying, did that actually happen?

00:33:14.420 And, you know, because like half the stories are 90 percent not true, whether he's lying or he just forgets what happened in the past because his mind is failing him.

00:33:22.020 But that's that is the proper context for this man.

00:33:27.660 Not running the free world.

00:33:31.300 Every time you see one of those videos, it's always one of those moments where you you laugh because it's funny.

00:33:35.840 And then the laughter soon fades away into sheer terror because you realize that, oh, like this guy is he's not on a porch in a rocking chair.

00:33:45.440 He's actually in charge of the country.

00:33:48.000 And he has no clue what's going on currently.

00:33:52.020 And the second option, aside from him, is Kamala Harris, who is only slightly more cognizant than he is.

00:34:00.060 That's the position we put ourselves in.

00:34:01.980 All right.

00:34:02.300 One more thing.

00:34:02.940 This is from The Daily Wire.

00:34:03.840 It says not even it's not even June yet.

00:34:06.440 And already corporations are signaling their allegiance to the progressive LGBT agenda.

00:34:10.400 The latest seemingly unaffiliated brand to come out in support of the cause is none other than Oreo cookie, which has been owned by the multinational food and beverage conglomerate.

00:34:19.020 Mandel is international since 2012.

00:34:20.820 The marketing team at Oreo couldn't wait until Pride Month to put out a new commercial spot, which featured a young man coming out as gay to his grandmother.

00:34:29.460 This is an Oreo ad.

00:34:30.640 First of all, before we play this ad or a little bit of it, as mentioned in the article, like you were a couple months away from Pride Month.

00:34:39.340 And it gets more extravagant with each passing year, but especially with what's happening in Florida and everything else, you cannot even imagine the sheer intensity of the virtue signaling that we are about to experience once we get to Pride Month.

00:34:58.360 It is going to be like, unlike anything, I don't know if any of us will survive the month without cringing to death, because what we're about to play here with this Oreo ad, this is just an appetizer.

00:35:12.180 So let's play a little bit of this.

00:35:13.520 Go ahead.

00:35:21.680 Okay, well, the ad is not in English either, so this doesn't really translate for an audio podcast, but.

00:35:28.360 All I can tell you is I watched the ad and it's like, it's like 75 minutes long.

00:35:35.600 And the Oreos appear in it one time.

00:35:42.820 Okay, this is all about, so this, this guy, he's going to, he's going to come out of the closet to his grandmother.

00:35:47.980 Oh, there's the Oreo.

00:35:48.760 So the Oreo does make an appearance.

00:35:51.060 Right before he's about to come out of the closet, they, they take some Oreos.

00:35:56.960 And then his grandmother comes in.

00:35:58.060 Okay.

00:35:58.360 All right, we've seen enough of that.

00:36:01.020 You know, I could almost, all right, I don't even want to see it.

00:36:03.640 Turn it off.

00:36:05.600 I could almost, I'm not going to say respect it, but I would be somewhat impressed with all these virtue signaling LGBT ads. 1.00

00:36:14.980 If you could find a way within the ad to tie it back to the product, like, that would be impressive.

00:36:23.160 I'd actually watch the ad just to see, like, how do you get there?

00:36:26.240 How do you bring this back to advertising for a cookie?

00:36:29.340 Uh, but they don't even bother to do that anymore.

00:36:31.720 Uh, this is, it seems like a small thing.

00:36:37.180 But just the fact that, um, every major conglomerate, every major corporation in America are tripping over themselves.

00:36:46.160 I mean, they're, they're even discarding their own messaging.

00:36:49.100 Forget about, forget about advertising their product.

00:36:52.060 The primary point of this ad, and this is a very, this is a very new thing.

00:36:57.120 Because it used to be that, yeah, advertisers, they would seize on social issues and that kind of thing to sell their product.

00:37:03.500 But the primary message in the advertisement was always about the product.

00:37:07.300 It was, it always came back to buy my product.

00:37:10.420 You know, Pepsi and Coca-Cola do this kind of thing all the time about, hey, teach the world to sing and it's a peace and harmony.

00:37:16.660 But how do you bring peace and harmony to the world?

00:37:21.380 It's by, it's by drinking Pepsi or Coca-Cola, whatever that ad was.

00:37:24.820 Now they've gotten rid of that.

00:37:25.860 But the ad is not even about the product.

00:37:28.500 The ad is simply to affirm their allegiance to the LGBT cause.

00:37:34.520 And that is when you know you have power in the culture.

00:37:37.620 That's when you know you have privilege.

00:37:40.540 When you have major corporations who are even discarding their concerns for the bottom line and profiting for the sake of bending the knee to you.

00:37:51.820 That's privilege.

00:37:52.480 Well, if you've been listening to my show for a while, you know that I've been an activist against the lazy grocery shoppers who don't put their grocery carts away.

00:38:02.240 I have some unfortunate news.

00:38:03.800 The grocery carts attacked me in my own car.

00:38:06.780 This is a very real story, not just something I'm saying for the purposes of this ad.

00:38:11.120 Unfortunately, when I was pulling out of my parking spot, a rogue grocery cart crashed into my car, leaving my front bumper scratched.

00:38:17.920 And more importantly, leaving me emotionally traumatized by this event.

00:38:22.380 There are two lessons we can take away from this.

00:39:13.400 Okay, let's get to the comments section.

00:39:14.520 Do you know their name?

00:39:17.620 They're the sweet baby gang.

00:39:22.040 All right.

00:39:24.540 Brayden says, Matt, you said you would quit if the Daily Wire bought the rights to VeggieTales.

00:39:29.980 I laughed so hard when DW announced that they hired the VeggieTales guys to make children's content for you.

00:39:36.760 Now, this is the claim that Brayden made is that I had previously announced that if we bought VeggieTales,

00:39:44.640 I would quit and resign from the Daily Wire.

00:39:47.620 I don't remember that exactly, but I think we have the clip.

00:39:49.960 Let's go back and just do a fact check on this.

00:39:54.680 Major Tom Fisher says, was thinking about the question about Daily Wire's future movies,

00:39:59.040 and now I really want to see DW buy Big Idea back from DreamWorks and finally bring back VeggieTales,

00:40:05.040 bringing it back to its home in Tennessee, too.

00:40:06.940 I can tell you right now, if the Daily Wire buys VeggieTales, I quit.

00:40:10.500 I want no part of that.

00:40:12.260 All right, so you see there.

00:40:14.820 Technically, I did say that if we, yes, it's great if we get into children's entertainment,

00:40:22.780 but if we purchase VeggieTales, then I'll resign from the Daily Wire.

00:40:26.400 But technically, we did not purchase VeggieTales.

00:40:29.960 What we did is we hired the guys who wrote VeggieTales.

00:40:33.540 So that's the distinction.

00:40:35.640 And I think it's an important distinction.

00:40:38.240 And look, it's nothing against VeggieTales itself.

00:40:40.860 Let me clarify something here, okay?

00:40:43.180 Okay, it's not a problem with VeggieTales.

00:40:46.680 It's just that you have to understand, as a Christian child of the 90s,

00:40:52.260 the VeggieTales were inescapable.

00:40:55.020 So everywhere you went, you were haunted by cucumbers and broccoli singing to you about Jesus Christ.

00:41:02.700 And so after a while, it just kind of, you can never look at salads the same way again.

00:41:06.800 And it just, it has this effect on you.

00:41:09.560 And so that's what, I'm traumatized by that.

00:41:13.180 That's the way I'm justifying it anyway.

00:41:15.580 You're not getting rid of me so easily.

00:41:17.520 Janelle Camp says, you're right, Matt.

00:41:19.180 A friend told me last week that he found out they've put a litter box in the girls' restroom at the local public school.

00:41:25.480 This is happening in a small town in Illinois because one of the kids identifies as a cat.

00:41:30.040 I can't imagine who cleans it. 0.92

00:41:31.600 The student, so insane.

00:41:33.300 Yes, you might hear this and you, oh, this is just someone, this is a YouTube comment.

00:41:38.220 This can't really be happening.

00:41:39.700 This is 100% happening.

00:41:41.600 In fact, there are libs of TikTok on Twitter recently, just recently had an image of this, like an actual litter box in a public school restroom for students who identify as cats.

00:41:55.020 This is really happening.

00:41:56.360 That is a thing that is happening in our schools now.

00:41:58.380 That is how broken the schools are.

00:42:03.860 That is how deep the intentionally cultivated and fostered identity crisis has become for kids.

00:42:12.200 Let's see.

00:42:17.660 What else do we got?

00:42:20.380 Jay Lynn says, when Matt said that McDonald's fries are the worst, I out loud gasped and said, Matthew.

00:42:27.200 Well, I mean, they are.

00:42:28.940 Like I said, it used to be that they were, I'd put them in the top five.

00:42:31.880 But recently, there's no effort that goes into it anymore with McDonald's, with their product, with their service, anything.

00:42:37.260 They just, you sit in line at the drive-thru.

00:42:40.540 And even if there's just two cars in front of you, you're going to be in line for 45 minutes.

00:42:44.520 And then you pull up and they just throw the food at you.

00:42:47.580 And it's like they didn't even bother to cook it half the time.

00:42:50.020 No effort.

00:42:51.060 Zero effort.

00:42:52.060 Arby's, on the other hand, they put real effort into their product and especially into their French fries.

00:42:55.520 Let's see.

00:42:59.120 Another comment says, my cousin who's pretty conservative and based has been dating a girl who just started working at an abortion clinic as a social worker.

00:43:06.460 She doesn't need the money as her family is well off.

00:43:08.720 And she is somewhat well off as well.

00:43:11.460 Told him that if she won't quit, he needs to end the relationship as it will never be anything but miserable.

00:43:16.100 Plus, all the feminist gender theory stuff that goes along with that crowd is extra poisonous on top. 1.00

00:43:20.940 His girlfriend actually is pretty cool and a kind person for the most part.

00:43:24.260 But it seems like the new job is a deal breaker.

00:43:26.580 Was I too harsh or forward with him?

00:43:29.020 Separate from not biting my tongue, could I be incorrect in my take on things?

00:43:34.340 No, not at all.

00:43:37.100 Especially in a dating relationship, there's no reason at all.

00:43:46.260 This is an easy one.

00:43:48.420 You're not committed to the person.

00:43:50.120 You're not married.

00:43:50.800 They're advertising ahead of time.

00:43:55.120 This is an important point, too.

00:43:56.200 Even leaving aside the fact that she's working at an abortion clinic, that's obvious. 1.00

00:43:59.220 You're working at an abortion clinic.

00:44:00.600 This is not wife material. 1.00

00:44:02.820 This is not someone you can have a relationship with.

00:44:04.460 Because for one thing, you have to be able to, you can have differences.

00:44:09.280 I mean, they say opposites attract.

00:44:11.320 But when opposites attract, that's referring more to personality.

00:44:14.320 My wife and I have diametrically opposite personalities.

00:44:18.520 But your fundamental beliefs and values and principles and goals in life, the things that you cherish most, you cannot be opposites on that.

00:44:28.160 That's exactly where you have to connect.

00:44:29.940 That's where the relationship is formed.

00:44:31.700 That's where it's maintained.

00:44:33.000 And so if you have a girlfriend who works at an abortion clinic and you're pro-life, that clearly tells you that you are on, you cannot be further apart in terms of your fundamental values, right?

00:44:47.320 And even if she didn't work at an abortion clinic, if you're dating someone who's pro-abortion, who just has pro-abortion views, that is also a deal breaker.

00:44:55.340 And there are a lot of reasons for that, one that I just described, but also you have to think about this.

00:45:01.840 I mean, if eventually you get married and you have kids, if someone's pro-abortion, then you know that it's at least in their mind a possibility, it's at least an option to kill your child in the womb.

00:45:17.080 And that's simply a risk you can't take.

00:45:18.980 You need to be able to trust your spouse with your child.

00:45:27.320 Trust that your child will be safe with your spouse.

00:45:30.720 The worst thing in the world, I mean, really the worst, is to be married to someone who you feel like you cannot trust, especially with your children.

00:45:45.400 And finally, if I can find it, tie my shoe says,

00:45:47.960 Matt, are you going to narrate your own audio book this time or continue to be lazy?

00:45:52.080 Edit, just realized he'll call me lazy for not reading the physical book.

00:45:56.180 Well, you took the words right out of my mouth.

00:45:58.460 But if you are lazy, yes, I am narrating the audio book in this case.

00:46:03.980 And the book we're referring to, of course, is What is a Woman?

00:46:06.120 Which you can go and pre-order on Amazon or at whatisawoman.com.

00:46:09.680 There's the plug.

00:46:10.620 Let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:46:12.260 Well, you know, I don't think it could be more clear that the world has descended into absolute degeneracy.

00:46:16.780 So there's never been a better time to renew your faith in God.

00:46:19.840 That's why I'm extremely excited to announce that today is the release of Andrew Klavan's latest book, The Truth and Beauty.

00:46:25.020 After years of studying the Gospels and trying to find the true meaning of Jesus' words, Klavan is ready to share what he has found.

00:46:31.020 It's for anyone who's striving for belief in a materialistic world, and I could not recommend it enough.

00:46:36.400 It's a beautiful book.

00:46:37.600 In keeping with the title, head to Amazon and order your copy of The Truth and Beauty today.

00:46:42.000 Now let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:46:47.620 So today we're going to cancel Madonna, who is 63 years old, less than a decade away from her 70th birthday,

00:46:54.860 and yet utterly determined to pretend that she hasn't aged a day since she turned 22.

00:47:00.420 These efforts have proven futile, as recently demonstrated by a TikTok she posted, because she's posting TikToks at 63.

00:47:07.480 I'm 35 and too old for TikTok.

00:47:10.680 She's my mom's age, and yet using the platform.

00:47:13.580 Her latest offering shows her kind of mugging for the camera, leaning in uncomfortably close, and pouting her lips in what we can only assume is some sort of attempt to be, I don't know, sexually alluring. 0.98

00:47:25.020 Unfortunately, Madonna has had so much plastic surgery and Botox that she now resembles some sort of tropical lizard, or perhaps she looks like somebody who's suffering a severe allergic reaction. 1.00

00:47:36.620 And I'm not body shaming her when I say that.

00:47:38.680 On the contrary, the parts of her body that I'm shaming are the parts that are not her body at all.

00:47:44.300 Tragically, the parts of her body that are not her body are, at this point, her entire body.

00:47:48.000 Because she would rather look like a non-human than simply looking like an older human. 0.86

00:47:53.800 And that's the first point that Madonna inadvertently raises for us.

00:47:58.280 She might be an extreme example of this phenomenon, but she's hardly the only example.

00:48:02.760 Plastic surgery is increasingly popular in our culture, with rates of the procedure increasing by some 25% over the past couple of decades.

00:48:09.640 Now, I'm not arguing against plastic surgery in principle.

00:48:13.020 I think the procedure can be worthwhile, certainly justifiable, in cases where somebody is suffering from a horrible disfigurement of some kind, a burn victim, for example.

00:48:21.740 But age itself is not a disfigurement.

00:48:24.420 It's not a disease.

00:48:25.780 It's not shameful.

00:48:27.300 It's not ugly.

00:48:29.040 Now, we've grown accustomed to treating age this way in our culture.

00:48:33.640 The completely ridiculous rule of modern etiquette, which says that it's rude to ask somebody their age, kind of plays into this mentality.

00:48:40.600 I mean, why shouldn't I ask somebody how old they are?

00:48:43.640 Why is it embarrassing to have lived on the planet for longer than others?

00:48:48.040 Far from embarrassing, most societies throughout history have seen advanced age as a badge of honor.

00:48:53.580 Older people were the village elders. 0.99

00:48:55.220 They were wise counselors.

00:48:56.420 You'd turn to them for sage advice, which is informed by their years of experience on Earth.

00:49:01.620 Old people were storytellers. 1.00

00:49:02.600 Storytellers, like Joe Biden with Big Mama and Corn Pop.

00:49:08.620 They were the keepers of not only wisdom, but your culture's past.

00:49:12.640 They were respected and honored.

00:49:14.720 They kept you connected to your past because they lived through it.

00:49:19.380 Now, there are many cultures around the world today that still treat the elderly this way.

00:49:23.380 Go to any of these places and you'll never hear somebody declare that they're 70 years young.

00:49:28.340 No, they're 70 years old.

00:49:31.400 Emphasis on old because there is value and beauty and wisdom in being old.

00:49:39.320 We have the opposite attitude here.

00:49:41.480 We don't honor old age anymore.

00:49:43.580 We don't want to see it.

00:49:45.020 You know, we usher old people off to the nursing homes. 1.00

00:49:48.080 And then if you're in New York, you send in COVID patients after them.

00:49:51.180 Part of the shift may be explained by the fact that modern medicine has made it so that we no longer see it as any sort of special achievement to reach old age.

00:49:59.520 Most of us get there no matter how we've lived.

00:50:02.160 But I think more than that, we are shallow and superficial.

00:50:05.860 And so we value the most frivolous aspects of youth more than we value the deepest benefits of old age.

00:50:13.500 Adding to the trouble, we also hate everything that is old.

00:50:16.360 This includes art, music, architecture, human beings themselves.

00:50:21.320 Because our culture is at war with its own past. 0.99

00:50:24.460 And has determined that everything and everyone who existed prior to 30 years ago was an ignorant racist savage. 0.97

00:50:30.860 But perhaps most saliently of all, I think we fear our own mortality. 0.96

00:50:35.380 And old age is a reminder of mortality.

00:50:38.160 As the old are perceived as being closer to death than the young. 1.00

00:50:41.860 Now this is a false perception because the veil separating us from this life and the next is thin and fragile for everyone.

00:50:49.180 And death follows us all around everywhere, whether we like it or not.

00:50:53.640 But this is how we see it.

00:50:55.380 And so we treat old age like a curse, a shame, something to be hidden.

00:51:00.020 We don't want to look at it.

00:51:02.280 Many older people themselves have adopted this attitude.

00:51:04.320 In fact, people in Madonna's generation helped to foster this attitude in our culture to begin with.

00:51:08.220 And so she not only carves up her own body trying to tear away the old flesh like there's a younger version of herself hiding underneath it. 0.96

00:51:15.760 But she also conducts herself and acts like she's a teenage TikToker instead of a grandmother. 0.99

00:51:21.820 The results are bizarre and often quite unsightly and pathetic.

00:51:27.360 Which is why I implore older people. 0.93

00:51:31.080 I beseech them with this.

00:51:32.700 If you're old, just be old.

00:51:34.960 Look old.

00:51:36.180 You aren't going to fool anybody.

00:51:37.180 And why should you try?

00:51:38.920 Just be who you are.

00:51:39.780 Be what you are.

00:51:41.460 There is dignity in that.

00:51:44.200 There is no dignity in whatever the hell Madonna has become.

00:51:48.660 And that's why she is today finally canceled.

00:51:52.200 And we'll leave it there for today.

00:51:53.320 Thanks for watching.
