Today on the Matt Wall Show, the left circles the wagons to defend poor $100 billion Disney
00:00:05.080
from the mean conservatives criticizing it. Also, the governor of Texas ships illegal immigrants
00:00:09.400
to D.C., and Kim Kardashian runs to the defense of a woman who beat her two-year-old daughter
00:00:14.060
to death, another example of twisted left-wing compassion and what it looks like. Plus,
00:00:18.440
a pastor at a church in Iowa offers a prayer to the, quote, God of pronouns. Speaking of pronouns,
00:00:23.700
the Republican governor of Utah is now introducing himself with his pronouns once you sacrifice
00:00:27.500
your dignity on the altar of leftist appeasement. You never get it back. We'll discuss all that
00:00:42.740
Well, you've heard me talk about how important it is to have a VPN to protect your online privacy,
00:00:47.120
but choosing a VPN you trust is equally as important. Now, I like to do research on my
00:00:51.820
sponsors, and I only recommend brands to my listeners that I believe in. I can say with
00:00:55.180
full confidence that ExpressVPN is the best VPN on the market. Here's why. First, ExpressVPN
00:00:59.580
doesn't log your activity online. Lots of cheap or free VPNs make money by selling your data to
00:01:04.600
advertisers, but ExpressVPN does not do this. They even developed a technology-trusted server that
00:01:09.140
makes their VPN servers incapable of storing any data at all. Second, ExpressVPN is lightning fast.
00:01:15.380
I've tried many VPNs in the past, and they can sometimes slow my connection, but ExpressVPN is
00:01:18.980
always blazing fast. It lets me stream videos in HD quality with zero buffering.
00:01:23.460
The last thing that really sets ExpressVPN apart is how easy it is to use. You don't need any
00:01:28.000
technical skills to get it set up. Trust me, if you did, I wouldn't be able to do it. You just
00:01:31.360
fire up the app, tap one button to connect, and that's it. Even your grandparents could do it. So
00:01:35.940
protect yourself with the VPN that I use and trust. Use my link, expressvpn.com slash Walsh today.

So there's no doubt in my mind that conservatives right now are making progress in the culture war.
00:01:55.640
It hasn't been an easy romp by any means. And these recent victories come after about four or
00:02:00.240
five decades of near constant defeat. We have a whole lot of territory still left to recover,
00:02:04.680
and it'll take a very long time to win it all back if we do. We're gaining ground fitfully and
00:02:09.660
with difficulty, but we are gaining it. There's no guarantee that the trend continues. We do have
00:02:15.040
quite a lot stacked against us. Still, we're advancing, and that's obviously a very good
00:02:18.940
thing. The question is, why is this happening and how? I think it's worth reflecting on that.
00:02:23.540
It's not as though we've witnessed any sort of mass defection with leftists leaving their
00:02:28.580
degenerate worldview and satanic philosophies behind in droves and experiencing some kind of mass
00:02:33.980
conversion of hearts and mind. There have been some examples of that kind of thing, but it's still
00:02:38.900
relatively rare. Overall, I'm guessing that if you polled an average sampling of Americans on
00:02:43.780
most of the big social issues, the percentages would break down about the same today as they did
00:02:48.360
last year or the year before that, the progress on the right has not been so far in convincing
00:02:53.480
huge numbers of people on the other side to come over here. Rather, it has been in convincing
00:02:58.060
and motivating our own side to get engaged and focus on what matters. They say that you shouldn't
00:03:05.820
preach to the choir, but I've always hated that expression. Oh, you're preaching to the choir
00:03:09.420
because, in fact, the people in the choir are the first ones you need to preach to.
00:03:13.740
If they aren't on your side, if you don't have the choir on your side, then it's going to be hard to
00:03:17.700
reach anybody else in the congregation, not to mention people outside of the congregation.
00:03:22.520
And so our recent victories have mostly been due to rallying our own side, I think,
00:03:26.000
awakening ourselves from our own self-imposed stupor. At the beginning of the year, it was the
00:03:32.220
school board movement. Now, it's not that most parents prior to this past year were in favor of the
00:03:37.840
schools racially and sexually indoctrinating their kids. It's just that so many of them weren't
00:03:43.260
paying enough attention or any attention. They weren't focusing on it. Year after year, millions
00:03:48.360
of kids were sent into government education facilities for seven hours a day, their parents
00:03:52.900
hoping that they'd receive a competent education, certainly opposing, in theory, the left-wing
00:03:58.100
brainwashing that happened within the system, but not really mobilized or motivated to do anything
00:04:03.240
about it. And that changed this year. Parents weren't suddenly convinced to oppose the brainwashing
00:04:10.540
of their children. Most of them always opposed that hypothetically, but they were emboldened to
00:04:14.820
finally show up and make a scene and make their voices heard. And the system was so caught off guard
00:04:20.240
and terrified by this sudden mobilization that they labeled us all domestic terrorists. The system was
00:04:26.840
running scared and still is, and it should be. I think we're seeing something similar with the
00:04:33.160
anti-grooming laws and the backlash against Disney, all these things, of course, related. Yesterday,
00:04:37.780
there was a protest outside of Disney headquarters in Burbank, California. A Disney employee actually
00:04:42.820
addressed the crowd outside Disney headquarters. Listen to this.
00:04:46.740
And I'm a cast member here at the, well, for Disneyland, actually. I've been with them for quite a long time,
00:04:52.980
and it's gotten very political, and it's gotten very hard to be who you are. It's gotten very hard
00:04:59.240
to be someone who has conservative values, someone who believes in the right to choose,
00:05:04.940
somebody who believes that it's okay to stand up for righteousness. It is okay to stand up for
00:05:11.120
righteousness. To any Disney cast members that are afraid to be bold, that are afraid to be courageous,
00:05:22.380
And you look at the crowd, by the way, I think it's worth noting that it's not just a bunch of
00:05:26.560
old people, nothing against old people. But for a long time, I can remember even my grandmother
00:05:33.680
used to write letters to Disney when she was concerned about the messaging in some of the
00:05:38.100
Disney films. She was ahead of her time. And for a long time, there have always been conservatives
00:05:43.020
complaining about Disney and noticing the messaging there. But for a long time, it was at least a
00:05:48.380
stereotype. It was mostly like older people and grandparents who were worried about Disney.
00:05:53.260
What you see here is a whole bunch of young people in that crowd as well who have awakened to this
00:05:58.800
issue. And you've got a Disney employee addressing this crowd of protesters outside Disney headquarters
00:06:03.300
and urging them to stand up for righteousness. That's not the kind of scene I thought we would see
00:06:09.340
at the beginning of this year. It's also not a scene the left and the media
00:06:12.420
ever anticipated. And just like they did with the school board movement, they're once again running
00:06:17.900
scared. They're panicking, flailing about. Articles and cable news segments vacillate between mocking
00:06:24.000
conservatives for criticizing Disney and then also accusing us of participating in cancel culture
00:06:29.340
against the company. That's one of the big lines right now is that this is cancel culture against
00:06:34.920
Disney. Now, as to that claim, just to be clear about this, it is by definition not possible
00:06:41.660
for a multinational megacorporation to be the victim of cancel culture. Cancel culture is a tool of such
00:06:50.200
institutions. Cancel culture is an institutional tool. You can't really cancel someone without the
00:06:57.520
power of the institutions on your side. The institutions cannot be the target of cancel culture
00:07:03.120
as much as I might wish that they could be. They can, however, be criticized and protested and boycotted.
00:07:11.140
And that's what's happening here and for good reason. But the institutions protect their own, which is why
00:07:16.480
the media is running to Disney's defense. Here's Humpty Dumpty on CNN valiantly coming to the defense
00:07:22.480
of the poor, persecuted, multi-billion dollar corporation. Let's listen to that.
00:07:27.060
In the United States, we're seeing a theme of the midterm elections emerging. It's the way you can see a wave
00:07:32.260
start to form far from shore before it breaks on the beach. The theme, the talking point on the right,
00:07:37.820
is about protecting kids from the dangers of the Walt Disney Company. Really. But Disney is just a
00:07:47.000
stem, a stand in. It's just a symbol for something bigger. A conservative backlash to growing acceptance
00:07:52.320
of gay and transgender people. A conservative fear that traditional beliefs are being trampled on.
00:07:57.440
And there are entire networks that program to this fear and many politicians that react to it.
00:08:01.380
That's the story here. As this CNN.com reporting says, three months into the new year,
00:08:06.500
lawmakers in dozens of states have introduced a slew of bills that could limit the rights of LGBTQ
00:08:11.380
Americans. Some of those bills are framed as parental rights bills. Opponents say they're really actually
00:08:18.060
anti-gay bills. And it's easy to picture this battle continuing right through the midterm elections.
00:08:23.100
But for folks who aren't partisan warriors, this battle is incredibly disheartening.
00:08:29.420
I spoke with a Disney executive who's caught in the middle of it right now. And they said,
00:08:33.160
you know, Disney's brand for decades has been family friendly and has been gay friendly.
00:08:38.200
And that hasn't been in conflict. That need not be in conflict. But the media organs that profit from
00:08:44.920
conflict are on a crusade now, working overtime to demonize Disney, claiming the company is
00:08:49.400
indoctrinating and sexualizing children through movies and TV shows.
00:08:54.840
Now, you notice the text on the screen right there. It says, focus on parental rights chips away
00:09:00.040
at gay rights. The left is now positioning parental rights and gay rights as two opposite competing
00:09:07.720
things. That's how they're positioning it. Now, this is without question, the most suicidal and
00:09:13.600
self-destructive kind of political messaging that LGBT activists could ever possibly devise.
00:09:19.400
I mean, they shout, you have to choose between your precious parental rights and my gay rights.
00:09:24.580
Choose, I say. Well, I guess I'll just take my parental rights in that case. I mean, if you insist
00:09:30.400
on me choosing, if it's got to be one or the other, yeah, I'll take the parental rights. Sure,
00:09:34.620
for sure. No question. Especially since you apparently believe that you have the gay right
00:09:39.840
to sexually indoctrinate my kids. So that's not a difficult choice for me to make.
00:09:44.180
As for Disney, keep in mind that while the media throw up their hands and say,
00:09:52.140
why do you care so much about Disney? Leave Disney alone. What did they ever do to you?
00:09:58.100
Ah, you silly conservatives making such a big deal out of Disney.
00:10:01.540
They were the ones who brought Disney into this to begin with. They insisted that Disney take a stand
00:10:08.520
on the Florida parental rights bill. Conservatives didn't insist on that. I don't remember a single
00:10:14.940
conservative before Disney said anything. There were no conservatives insisting that Disney support
00:10:22.240
the bill. Nobody on the right was saying, where's Disney on this? Why aren't they supporting the
00:10:27.800
parental rights bill? We were fine with Disney saying nothing at all about the subject. In fact,
00:10:31.920
I would have preferred that. The left demanded it. And when they got what they wanted and Disney came
00:10:39.480
out fully in favor of the sexual indoctrination and grooming of preschoolers, we reacted with
00:10:45.400
appropriate levels of disgust. And we now say that if Disney is committed to this path,
00:10:51.420
then we obviously can't allow the company anywhere near our children. Considering that Disney has been
00:10:57.920
committed to ideologically brainwashing kids for many years, we should have come to this conclusion.
00:11:01.920
sooner as conservatives, but better late than never, I suppose. The left can, of course,
00:11:07.980
mock us for caring so much about Disney, even though they were the ones who spent months insisting
00:11:13.660
that Disney's opinion on the Florida bill is of utmost importance. And now they switch course and
00:11:19.340
they say the opposite. This is all part of the, we're used to this trend. This is a common trend I
00:11:23.700
remark on all the time with the left, where they demand that we care about a certain thing.
00:11:28.520
They shove it in our face. They scream about it. You must care about this.
00:11:34.160
Disney's opinion on the Florida bill. We, this is really important.
00:11:38.820
And then we say, okay, well, we care, but we've reached the opposite conclusion from you.
00:11:43.960
And then, and then suddenly they say, well, why do you care so much? It doesn't matter.
00:11:50.780
They're actually scrambling. What they're really worried about is that they know we're over the
00:11:55.320
target, you know, just as we were with the school boards. For years, we allowed entertainment
00:12:03.340
companies like Disney. We allowed them open and nonstop access to our kids, allowed our kids to
00:12:10.540
consume their content. And I say our, and we, you know, in a universal sense. Um, some of us were a
00:12:18.400
little bit more discerning about it, but generally speaking, parents allowed their kids to just sit
00:12:24.520
there and consume Disney content all day without, without scrutinizing the messages that the content
00:12:29.840
contained. And that was an incredibly valuable tool for the left. Now they see that we're finally awake
00:12:38.580
and it's not going to be quite so easy anymore to indoctrinate our kids.
00:12:44.900
And that terrifies them. And again, it should. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:12:57.940
We're going to start right off the bat with this governor, Greg Abbott in Texas. I think with
00:13:01.980
perhaps the highlight of his tenure in Texas, I just, I love everything about this personally.
00:13:07.580
Um, let's listen to him first. Crossing the border from Mexico into Texas. And at this time,
00:13:16.740
I'm going to sign my directive to Colonel McCraw, the director of the Texas Department of Public Safety
00:13:22.680
to get that project underway immediately for the zero tolerance and the inspections that will be
00:13:34.480
taking place. Second, to help local officials whose communities are being overwhelmed by hordes of
00:13:42.860
illegal immigrants who are being dropped off by the Biden administration. Texas is providing charter
00:13:49.800
buses to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden administration to
00:13:56.060
Washington, D.C. We are sending them to the United States Capitol where the Biden administration will
00:14:02.400
be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our
00:14:06.380
border. To get that going, I'm going to sign a letter to Chief Nim Kidd with the Texas Division of
00:14:13.280
Emergency Management who will be in charge of this operation. Together, and to recap on these,
00:14:25.200
what Colonel McCraw is charged to do is, uh, in this letter, I say that I hereby direct the Texas
00:14:30.560
Department of Public Safety to conduct enhanced safety inspections of vehicles as they cross
00:14:36.160
international points of entry into Texas. This is great. I mean, I think this is a, this is a wonderful
00:14:42.520
idea. It's the kind of thing that, uh, in previous years you might talk about, and it wouldn't be nice
00:14:48.640
if they would just load up all the illegals and dump them right in D.C., right on the, right on the
00:14:53.340
laps of all the politicians who have devised these open border laws to begin with. Uh, you talk about it
00:14:59.920
and then, uh, you don't expect that it's actually going to happen because usually the Republican
00:15:03.880
Party doesn't have the guts to do anything like that. Uh, not nearly bold enough, but so this,
00:15:10.080
that's exactly what, what, uh, Governor Abbott's going to do. Now, of course, obviously this is
00:15:16.100
being criticized on the left and even, even some people on the right, some people even that I respect
00:15:20.620
on the right, um, who I wouldn't call milk toast by any means. I've seen a few criticizing this saying,
00:15:27.760
well, you're using people as pawns here. I'm a little uncomfortable with it. Um, but I think you got
00:15:33.420
to get over that. Um, this is, first of all, this is not Greg Abbott using illegal immigrants
00:15:40.040
as pawns. That's the Democrat Party. That's, that's Joe Biden. That has been the official
00:15:46.520
Democrat policy for years to use illegal immigrants, to open up the floodgates, allow them in. Um,
00:15:57.200
they have political reasons to do it. They of course don't care about the humanity of these
00:16:03.380
people. They don't care about their safety or wellbeing. If they did, they wouldn't be
00:16:09.560
implicitly and often explicitly encouraging them to embark on this dangerous journey across the desert.
00:16:16.880
Um, in the first place, if they actually cared about their safety and wellbeing.
00:16:22.200
So I think for, for Greg Abbott, it's pretty, pretty simple. Like you people in the Biden administration,
00:16:28.520
you want them coming in. So we're going to send them up to you. You figure out what to do with
00:16:33.340
them. Why should this be our problem? See, this is supposed to be your job in the federal government
00:16:39.940
to protect the borders. If you're not doing it, then the consequences should be felt by you, not by us.
00:16:46.580
And at any rate, if you're on the left, you should totally support a plan like this because, uh,
00:16:51.460
because, you know, Texas is a, is a red state. That means it's systemically racist. Well,
00:16:56.560
the whole country really is, but especially in Texas of all places, right? So, so wouldn't,
00:17:00.820
wouldn't you want the illegals to be rescued from Texas and sent up to the warm embrace of
00:17:05.840
Washington DC where everything is perfect and safe and wonderful? You know, the people advocating
00:17:13.840
for open borders, this has always been the case, you know, just like with abortion, as Ronald Reagan
00:17:20.200
famously pointed out, all the people who support abortion happen to be alive, right? So it doesn't
00:17:25.200
affect them. They already made it through the gauntlet of the modern womb and they, they managed
00:17:30.620
to survive. And now they're turning back around and, you know, in effect, like pulling the ladder
00:17:35.380
up behind them and saying, Oh, all the rest of those babies you can kill. And a similar thing
00:17:39.520
with the open borders, the people who advocate for open borders and who have these open border
00:17:44.820
policies in place, they, for the most part, don't live anywhere near the border.
00:17:48.180
Washington DC is, if you're familiar with the geography of the United States, not anywhere
00:17:54.180
near the Southern border. So they don't feel the effects of it. They're also politicians. I mean,
00:18:01.060
they work in industries where they don't have to worry about their jobs and opportunities being
00:18:05.820
taken by illegals. So they don't feel the effect of it at all. They're able to sit on their comfortable
00:18:12.300
perch and let everybody else suffer because of their policies. That's leftist leadership in a
00:18:20.520
nutshell. So here, all he's saying is this is your problem. You created it. You want these people to
00:18:28.020
come in, in the first place, unfettered, unvetted. You deal with it. I like it. I think it's a great
00:18:38.740
idea. Um, I don't like this though. Kim Kardashian has been on a campaign to free the worst people in
00:18:45.620
the world from prison, um, or at least to free them from the full consequences of their crimes,
00:18:50.500
especially if the consequence is the death penalty, because that is a, a, a consequence and at least
00:18:56.160
still some States in the union. And if you live in one of those States, you know that, or you ought to
00:19:03.720
know that, you know, before you choose to commit a brutal crime, you, you know what you're getting
00:19:10.240
yourself into. You know what the consequence is. You commit the crime and, and, uh, now you have to
00:19:17.140
pay the price for it. It's, it's really something that you chose. That's the thing about the death
00:19:21.860
penalty is that you, the individual who chooses to commit, if they didn't choose to commit the crime,
00:19:29.060
I mean, if they're, if, if it's decided this person's completely insane, doesn't have free will,
00:19:33.720
then we already, um, that already is the policy that those people are not going to be executed.
00:19:38.960
So if they chose, if they choose to commit it, they also chose the consequence. They chose the
00:19:44.560
punishment because they knew what it was going to be. Kim Kardashian doesn't like that though. And,
00:19:50.340
uh, so this has been her, this has been her hobby horse for a while now. Um, and look,
00:19:55.240
she has not done anything important or useful or good in her life. And she's decided to make this
00:20:02.000
her thing. This is like her charitable endeavor, defending the worst scum on planet earth. But what
00:20:09.000
we have to remember is that of course, this is all about her. So here she is in an interview recently
00:20:14.020
talking about how the, um, the recent execution of a criminal impacted her personally, because again,
00:20:20.500
it's all about her. Listen, I was working on the Brandon Bernard case and he was in fact executed.
00:20:27.780
And I remember crying and feeling so helpless because it was his last phone call. And he was
00:20:38.220
telling me like, don't cry. It's going to be okay. And, you know, hearing that he was worried that he
00:20:43.800
would be claustrophobic in the chair. And then on his last call, when he was in the execution room
00:20:50.640
said, please tell Kim, I'm not claustrophobic. It's okay. And like moments like that, I'm like,
00:20:55.880
if only someone could see my day, I'm like hysterically crying, calling every governor that
00:21:00.100
I could possibly imagine to try to stop someone's execution. And then I have to run into, you know,
00:21:05.580
a skims fitting and I'm fitting and I'm crying and I'm can't really get my work done.
00:21:10.640
Oh, it was tough. Cause she had to go to a skims fitting. The other guy was being executed,
00:21:15.640
but, uh, she was crying at her skims fitting. I mean, the level of narcissism required to make
00:21:21.700
somebody else's execution about you is, uh, I mean, it's off the charts and now she's back at it.
00:21:30.280
So she tweeted this week, this is what she tweeted. I recently just read about the case of Melissa
00:21:35.060
Lucio and wanted to share her story with you. So remember, she just read about the case,
00:21:40.020
just read about it and already she's decided she's, she has passed her own verdict. She says she's been
00:21:47.320
on death row for over 14 years for her daughter's death. That was a tragic accident. Just found out
00:21:52.880
about it, you know, probably read the Wikipedia article or something and has already decided
00:21:57.520
that, um, Melissa Lucio, who was convicted of murdering her two-year-old daughter actually
00:22:02.500
was a tragic accident. Kardashian goes on to say that, uh, Lucio's two-year-old daughter
00:22:06.340
died from falling down the steps. That's the, that's the claim anyway. Um, actually, uh, died
00:22:13.700
two days after falling down the steps, allegedly, but nobody ever sought medical attention for her.
00:22:18.600
But it was, it was all, it was all a terrible misunderstanding on an accident. Um, Kim Kardashian
00:22:23.780
actually deleted this tweet, sort of confusingly deleted it, but is still openly advocating for
00:22:30.640
Lucio and defending her. It hasn't really explained why she deleted tweets. Here are the facts though.
00:22:37.060
And Kardashian is not the only person coming to Melissa Lucio's defense and saying that she's,
00:22:42.000
um, you know, she's really the victim here and, and it would be a terrible injustice to execute her.
00:22:46.360
So here's, here's what happened. I'll just break it down. Quick summary. Um, her two-year-old child
00:22:53.100
was, um, found dead in, in her home two days after this supposed fall. Now already this raises some
00:23:03.100
questions like your child fell down the steps and was, it turns out, fatally wounded and you never
00:23:11.700
sought medical attention for her. That raises some serious questions. Then you get some answers to
00:23:19.180
those questions when you find out that there was bruising all over her body, clumps of hair pulled
00:23:24.880
out of her head and bite marks on her body as well. And a broken arm. The physician at the hospital
00:23:31.340
said it was the worst case of abuse he'd ever seen in his life. Pathologist looked at the autopsy,
00:23:37.680
said the autopsy showed that she died from abuse. Um, she did not die from, you know, a fall down the
00:23:44.980
steps. Also keep in mind that she fell down the steps, quote unquote is that's like the classic
00:23:52.340
abuser rationalization. That that's the excuse that I don't know. Every abuser in history has given
00:23:58.960
or at least 90% of them fell down the steps. How often have we heard that one?
00:24:07.740
And falling down the steps, how does that result in bite marks? How does that result in your,
00:24:13.740
your hair falling out? And once again, even if somehow in some unbelievable coincidence,
00:24:24.960
the child happened to fall down the steps in such a way as to cause all of these injuries.
00:24:30.860
I don't know how that could even possibly be the case, but then, then she would have been very visibly
00:24:38.600
and grievously injured. So why didn't you seek medical attention?
00:24:46.220
There's no explanation for this. And then you find out that Lucio actually confessed under interrogation
00:24:49.980
that she's, that, that she's responsible for the death of her child.
00:24:56.680
Now, yes, now this, this interrogation, this confession is being, um, used by Lucio's defenders
00:25:02.300
to say that, uh, to, to say that the whole thing was, was invalid because she confessed under,
00:25:08.980
it was like five, she was in, she was being interrogated for several hours, like five, six hours.
00:25:14.240
And she denied it many times before she finally admitted it.
00:25:19.680
And so her defenders are saying, well, it was five hours of interrogation. And then she confessed.
00:25:24.040
Well, that's what an interrogation is. That's why you call it an interrogation.
00:25:29.840
What, how do you think an interrogation is supposed to work? Are the cops supposed to just like,
00:25:35.500
you've got a dead child here with all of these wounds on her, on her body.
00:25:42.180
And you bring in the mother and you sit her down and you say, uh, did you kill your child?
00:25:46.660
And she says, no. And then you just say, well, okay, well, nevermind then.
00:25:48.980
Now, obviously they had, especially when the, when the, when the, when the, the physician at the
00:25:55.520
hospital tells you that this is the worst case of physical abuse of a child he's ever seen in his
00:26:01.620
life. And then given all the other circumstances, that's going to make you as, as a police officer,
00:26:08.200
as an investigator, very, very suspicious about this woman. And so of course you're going to
00:26:15.120
interrogate her for five hours, interrogate her for 15 hours until you get an explanation that
00:26:20.720
makes sense. I don't even understand this whole thing about, this is so common that we hear as well,
00:26:27.320
the person only confessed after X number of hours of interrogation. That's the point of the
00:26:31.640
interrogation. Are you suggesting that the cops should just take the first answer they get?
00:26:37.200
She killed her child and she, obviously she didn't want to admit to it right away. She would
00:26:45.900
prefer not to admit to it. She doesn't want to go and be in jail for the rest of her life or get
00:26:50.680
executed. So part of the interrogation is breaking through those initial psychological defenses to try
00:26:58.520
to get to the truth. That's what it's, that's the point. So to me, this is very, this is very clear
00:27:05.640
cut, but Kim Kardashian spent, spent five, six seconds reading about the issue and decided that
00:27:12.380
Melissa Lucio is, is really the victim here. A woman convicted of brutally beating her two-year-old
00:27:23.720
to death is the person we're supposed to feel sorry for. Sorry. That's just, I don't, I don't have
00:27:31.360
that in me. And it's not because I'm callous. I think the callousness is all on the other side.
00:27:39.880
You know, you, this is, this is misdirected sympathy. This is this kind of twisted form
00:27:45.740
of compassion that you get from the left. You get from people like Kim Kardashian. And it's, it's,
00:27:49.820
among other things, it's an easy kind of compassion because she doesn't feel like,
00:27:55.900
if you're a morally decent person, you should feel this intense unbridled revulsion and anger
00:28:06.720
at this kind of violence against a child. I mean, you should have a rage boiling inside you
00:28:16.460
at the idea that a child was beaten to death. And, and, and that's what, that's what a morally
00:28:23.220
healthy person experiences. That's the hatred we talked about a couple of days ago. If you're
00:28:29.640
a loving and compassionate person, you should have hatred in your heart for things like this.
00:28:36.600
The brutal victimization of a child. You should hate that. You should hate that with every fiber
00:28:41.160
of your being. Now, by all appearances, Kim Kardashian doesn't have that in her. She just
00:28:46.420
doesn't, she doesn't really feel much about the fact that, about the victims and the terrible
00:28:50.300
things that were done to them. And so it's easy for her to have, quote, compassion for the,
00:28:55.140
for the criminals. Because she doesn't feel any anger about what they did.
00:29:02.160
She doesn't feel any righteous, justified anger. That's where the compassion comes from. It's,
00:29:06.480
it really comes, it, you know what it comes from? It comes from indifference.
00:29:09.840
It's not compassion, it's indifference. And we tend to confuse those two things a lot in this culture.
00:29:15.220
There are a whole lot of people who are very indifferent to injustice and they get away with
00:29:20.540
positioning that indifference as compassion. All right, I got to play this for you. This is a
00:29:27.380
Presbyterian church in Iowa, female pastor. No coincidence there. Giving her version of a prayer.
00:29:39.440
Oh, God of pronouns. We give praise to the great one. The one who was identifiable as God.
00:29:50.060
I am what I am, you say. The great they. The incarnate he and she. The God of trans being.
00:30:00.440
Impregnating Mary. Fathering God. Breastfeeding God of many breasts. You shatter all stereotypes.
00:30:13.160
Making every single person male and female. Male and female. Intersex. Non-binary. In your image.
00:30:23.980
Exactly in your image. Spectrum rainbow God who put your promise for non-violence in the symbol for queer love
00:30:34.880
before humanity knew. Because you knew. Who had Joseph who could not sleep with a woman
00:30:42.720
in a beautiful lady's cloak, perhaps of rainbow colors, before we knew. You knew.
00:30:49.120
God of pronouns who said, you can call me he or she or they. Whatever makes you feel closest to me.
00:30:59.900
The great they. That's how she refers to God. The God of pronouns. Now, first of all, it's actually not a coincidence
00:31:09.800
that this is a female pastor saying all of this. Not to suggest that the bad pastors are always female.
00:31:19.100
There's a lot of bad men leading churches as well in this country and across the West and across the world.
00:31:26.780
But it's also not a coincidence that the craziest and most heretical stuff
00:31:31.400
usually happens at churches with female pastors. That is not a coincidence. And the reason it's not a coincidence
00:31:38.000
is that churches that have already bought into feminism
00:31:43.060
were destined to continue the slide into what we're seeing now. That's the connection there.
00:31:52.320
what we've seen in many churches again across the West. Just this is a very
00:32:02.460
this is God made in the image of man. Rather than man made in the image of God. That's the way.
00:32:13.020
She, in this church, she is trying to remake God in her own image. In the image of what she thinks humanity is.
00:32:24.140
It's a complete inversion of the actual message of the Bible.
00:32:33.320
How the Bible begins. Male and female, he created them. And she even says that. Talk about shocking.
00:32:39.320
There's one surprising moment where she says, you made them male and female.
00:32:42.280
And you stop and say, well, hold on a second. You're admitting that much at least?
00:32:45.360
And then she continues, and intersex, and non-binary.
00:32:51.160
No, actually, that's not in the scripture at all. In fact, it says that male and female,
00:32:56.800
he created them. There are no other categories provided.
00:33:00.840
And that's not just in the beginning of the Bible. That's all throughout the Bible.
00:33:05.820
There are many exhortations given to men and to women. And there's never a third.
00:33:11.440
There's never a time where, oh yeah, in the third category over here, here's what you should do.
00:33:15.360
So we see her in real time rewriting the Bible and trying to rewrite God, remake God in her own
00:33:25.920
twisted self-image. Speaking of twisted, I got to play this for you too. Sean Penn appeared on
00:33:32.820
Hannity this week. And talk about things you may not have expected in the past. There was a time when
00:33:41.020
this combination would be somewhat unthinkable, having Sean Penn and Sean Hannity getting along.
00:33:47.580
But he appeared on Hannity this week to complain that countries are not more willing to use nuclear
00:33:54.460
weapons. The Ukrainians, we saw and talked to, whether they were in uniform, out of uniform, school
00:34:02.420
teachers, even children, this extraordinary courage that's come up. And it was in his eyes. And it is clear to me
00:34:11.920
that the Ukrainians will win this. The question is, at what cost?
00:34:17.060
Did they have in those early hours, I know that Trump gave them javelins. I know that they had some defenses.
00:34:24.900
But if you go back to the Budapest agreement, they were, at the time, the third largest nuclear power in
00:34:30.440
the world. And they made an agreement that they'd give those weapons to Russia to be destroyed in
00:34:37.620
exchange for protection from Russia, Great Britain, and the U.S. Lesson to be learned here, don't give up
00:34:44.540
your nuclear weapons if you have them, because you can't believe people like Vladimir Putin...
00:34:47.900
Well, even countries that have nuclear weapons can remain intimidated to use them. And we're
00:34:53.680
seeing that now with our own country. And I fear what that legacy is going to be. No one wants to
00:34:59.680
see a nuclear conference. I don't want to see one. Nobody does. At the same time, if only one bully
00:35:04.700
is going to be able to use those weapons as a threat, we've got to rethink what we're doing.
00:35:09.300
Just to be clear here, this is Sean Penn who pretends to want world peace and all of that and global
00:35:18.940
harmony. He's disappointed. He's disappointed that Western countries are not more eager to use
00:35:26.740
nuclear weapons. This is him. He's openly saying, he thinks that we should nuke Russia. That's what he's
00:35:34.580
saying. And he's given a platform to say that. Absolute madness. Speaking of madness, one other
00:35:45.420
thing before we get to the comment section. This is from Travel and Leisure. I saw this article
00:35:50.700
making the rounds yesterday, and I was quite unsettled by it. It says, in the middle of a
00:35:55.780
sweltering summer, you can bet that pretty much everyone has their air conditions running as cold
00:36:00.440
as possible. However, according to Consumer Reports, most of us are probably running our air
00:36:04.160
conditioners at the wrong temperature, which wastes energy and causes our utility bills to soar.
00:36:09.380
Energy Star came out with recommendations for setting your air conditioner so that you can save
00:36:12.500
money and use energy efficiently. Now, and then they went and they talked to experts because we need
00:36:18.560
experts to tell us what our thermostat should say. We need experts to tell us what is most comfortable
00:36:26.280
for us. And it says that according to experts, it's recommended that you set your air conditioning at
00:36:30.520
78 degrees when you're home and awake, and it gets worse. If you leave your home, set your unit to 85
00:36:37.100
degrees. When you're asleep, set it to 82 degrees, the experts say. Now, the experts have been
00:36:45.200
disproven and invalidated and shamed and humiliated in many different ways over the last few years,
00:36:54.580
especially. But I can think of no example more stark than this one, when they're telling us to
00:37:01.280
set our air conditioning at 82 degrees when you're sleeping. Now, let me, this is actually, I'm the
00:37:08.540
expert on this, and I'll tell you where your thermostat should be. Throughout the day, basically,
00:37:13.360
your house should never be, especially if I'm coming over to visit, your house should never be warmer
00:37:19.340
than 68 degrees. That should be the, that's the baseline all the time. It should never get more
00:37:24.320
than 68 degrees. It doesn't matter the season. When you're sleeping, though, it should be, it's got
00:37:31.680
to be as cold as it will possible. It should be, it should be so cold that if your blankets come off
00:37:37.640
in the middle of the night, you might, you might die of hypothermia in your sleep. That's how cold it
00:37:42.020
should be. Get it as cold as it could possibly be. That's, that is the correct answer. Take it from me,
00:37:49.240
not these so-called experts. All right, let's get now to the comment section.
00:37:52.220
If you're a man, it's required that you grow a beard. Hey, we're the sweet baby gang.
00:38:02.840
Elizabeth Ball says the definition of a groomer is someone who uses subtle techniques to prepare
00:38:08.120
slash guide a child towards something later. If they don't think that they're grooming kids to
00:38:12.720
see gender and sex as fluid and to see all kinds of sex as good sex, what do they think they're doing?
00:38:18.020
Of course, why do they even ask? They don't think about what they're doing at all. They simply comply
00:38:22.800
with the silent commands of their masters below. No, they, they know that grooming is exactly what
00:38:29.380
they're doing. Now that's, that's probably not the language they would choose to use. That's not what
00:38:35.580
they call it amongst themselves. They would, they, they use euphemisms for it. That's what we always have
00:38:42.960
to keep in mind about the left is that they, everything they do, they cover in euphemisms.
00:38:48.600
And so they're going to use a lot of euphemisms here. One would be just education, they would
00:38:51.900
probably call it. But when you are, here's grooming, okay? When you are indoctrinating children and,
00:39:04.380
you know, inducting them into a certain sexual view of life and a certain, a certain sexual
00:39:12.540
lifestyle. And not only are you doing that, but you're doing it without their parent, parent,
00:39:19.940
parent's consent. And while telling, and in fact, oftentimes telling the kids, don't tell your
00:39:26.300
parents about this, that's grooming. I mean, anytime, there's, there's almost never going to
00:39:34.960
be an occasion where it's going to be appropriate for you as an adult to go to a child and have a
00:39:40.720
conversation with them that you don't want their parents to know about. Now, the only time I can
00:39:47.740
conceive of when that would be appropriate is if the child is, is the victim of abuse at home and is
00:39:53.740
coming to you. And then you're going to get the authorities involved. Anything outside of that
00:40:00.400
is, is already grooming. It's already going to be inappropriate at best.
00:40:09.380
But talk about euphemisms and justifications. What I just said about the, the kind of the abuse
00:40:14.000
exception here, which I think we would all agree. If a child is abused, obviously that's, that is a time
00:40:19.060
when you want to be able to talk to the child without having the parent involved. If the parent is the,
00:40:22.960
is the guilty party in the abuse. Now, that's another way that the left kind of do an end run
00:40:28.260
around this issue is that they'll say that, well, you know, if a six-year-old is really trans
00:40:34.100
and their parents aren't accepting of it, then that six-year-old's a victim of abuse.
00:40:39.720
And so we, we have to rescue him from that abuse. That's the, that's the way they get around it.
00:40:45.280
That's the way they dress it up. That's the way they dress it up in public and probably in their
00:40:49.320
own minds to rationalize what they're doing, but there's no question that it is grooming and
00:40:53.780
indoctrination. And it is a form of sexual abuse, by the way. Brandon Summit says, I love Matt's
00:41:02.060
play-by-play of Biden's social awkwardness. I've been there before. It's especially bad when you
00:41:06.240
arrive to a party before your core group of people arrive. Yeah, that's a, that's a problem. Or if
00:41:12.360
you're, you know, you're at the social function and you have your core group of people and you have
00:41:16.780
your circle, but they keep fanning out and mingling with others. Like you found your people
00:41:22.340
and this is what you're going to, you know, it's like, this is how we're going to get through this
00:41:25.160
together. And then they betray you by going and talking to other people, forcing you to also
00:41:32.540
mingle. That's another, that's another problem. So again, that's, that's the one time I've ever felt
00:41:37.460
bad or really, I guess, cause I could relate to Biden with that footage of him being left all on
00:41:42.920
his own while everyone fawns over Obama. Let's see. James says, quote, Hey, I bet I can get everyone
00:41:51.780
to celebrate a fake holiday for a fake sexuality of self-obsessed single people justifying their
00:41:56.240
loneliness. Hashtag international asexuality day. Well, I'm glad you brought that up, James,
00:42:02.620
because I did, I did forget to mention that yesterday and I apologize to all the asexuals
00:42:07.520
out there, which is a category that really doesn't exist. But yesterday was, we had trans day of
00:42:14.160
visibility. Yesterday was the asexual day of visibility, international asexuality day. So
00:42:21.180
if you celebrate it, then happy asexuality day. If you didn't, then I guess we'll get it. We'll get
00:42:26.520
to it next year. Well, the latest limited edition, highly sought after installment of my patch program
00:42:33.180
is here already featuring the embroidery of two crossed banjos on a strident orange face. April's
00:42:38.920
patches, reminiscent of one of my set's former hallmarks. Uh, you may not have won the giveaway
00:42:44.040

Virtuistic. Is that even a word? Virtuistic. I don't think that's a word. Virtuosic. Yeah,
00:43:10.480
that probably is a word. Anyway, my virtuosic, virtuosic, my virtuosic prowess, plucking the

00:43:33.180
So we must return to a well that we just recently visited, quite a shallow well, it turns out,
00:43:39.720
but there's a reason to come back here today. Last week we canceled Jon Stewart after he focused an
00:43:44.240
episode of his show on airing the dirty laundry of his own personal white guilt. Now nobody knew
00:43:49.880
that he had done this because nobody knew that he had a show until the clips went viral online where
00:43:54.360
he rants about the sins of white America, the evils of the white man, et cetera. And now we must
00:43:59.000
cancel him again for a similar reason, though with a slightly different theme. Stewart is continuing
00:44:03.960
his white guilt tour, this time appearing on somebody's show, or maybe they're appearing on
00:44:07.500
his, who knows. But during the conversation, he said this, listen.
00:44:13.060
The literal interpretation of the American dream is that, is it doesn't matter where you were born or
00:44:19.460
how you were born or who you are that in this country, you can rise up and go beyond that.
00:44:25.680
And it turns out to be a fallacy. But I wonder, you know, when we say, oh, in 2040 or 2050,
00:44:32.920
when the demographics change, we won't know what will happen. I feel like we know what will happen
00:44:38.300
because it's, it's what's happened from the very beginning. And I would say, yeah.
00:44:43.000
The formation of the union, the compromise that was made with the Southern states that
00:44:48.620
black slaves would count as three fifths, but they can't vote, but you can count them. There has always
00:44:54.560
been a redistribution of power to the white elite. The American dream is a fallacy, says the man with
00:45:04.480
a net worth of $120 million. He says it's a fallacy that anyone, no matter where you were born can rise
00:45:10.320
up and go beyond that. He says it's fallacious because there is a white elite who are constantly
00:45:15.080
redistributing wealth and power to themselves. And his example of, and proof of this systemic sort
00:45:21.680
of rigging is the three fifths compromise, which was put in place in the 1700s and was recently
00:45:27.920
repealed and abolished. And by recently, I mean over 150 years ago. You know, once the United States
00:45:34.240
became its own official country, slavery as an institution only survived about 90 years.
00:45:40.520
As opposed to many other countries in the world, especially countries in Asia and Africa,
00:45:44.280
which had slavery for centuries and kept the institution in place for, in some cases,
00:45:48.980
over a century longer than the US. China had slavery for, I don't know, about 3,000 years.
00:45:57.020
Didn't officially abolish it as a legal institution until the early 20th century. But even after it was
00:46:02.240
abolished officially, it continued and still continues to this day unofficially. But this sort of historical
00:46:08.160
context eludes Jon Stewart. He judges up the sins of our distant past all the way back to our nation's
00:46:14.200
very infancy and uses it as his canvas to paint a bleak picture of America today. Now, as far as that
00:46:20.240
goes, it's one thing for him to do the usual song and dance about America being a racist country,
00:46:25.700
et cetera, and so forth. And that's bad enough. But I find it especially galling when he, standing on
00:46:32.200
his lofty, luxurious perch, waves his hand dismissively and declares that the American
00:46:37.080
dream is an impossibility for millions of Americans. A fallacy, he says. Now, this is just
00:46:44.440
not true. It's certainly true that some people have it easier than others. Some people start out
00:46:49.420
life with advantages that other people don't have. Jon Stewart's children, for example, have many
00:46:54.180
privileges that other people's children don't have. Yes, they're more privileged than black children
00:47:00.000
in the inner city. They're also more privileged than white children living in a drug-infested
00:47:04.280
trailer park in Appalachia somewhere. Nobody is claiming that every person has an equal shot at
00:47:09.700
having success in life, whatever success might mean. If you're born in squalor, that will negatively
00:47:15.720
impact your chances. And then, whatever your socioeconomic situation, some people have better
00:47:21.760
natural tools than others. Some people are smarter, better learners, more gifted, more suited for
00:47:26.140
success in certain areas. LeBron James had to work hard to have success in the NBA, but he certainly
00:47:31.480
started off with a better chance at that kind of success than, say, I did. There's no way to give
00:47:37.560
everyone an absolutely equal playing field, given that everyone is different, everyone's situation is
00:47:43.500
different, and the playing fields we want to play on are all also different. Not to mention we make
00:47:49.120
different choices, we have different priorities, etc. The question for our purposes right now is whether
00:47:54.360
there's a system in place to grant better opportunities to white people based purely on their skin
00:47:59.740
color. And as to that, the answer is clearly no. In fact, all of the systems that grant opportunity based
00:48:07.180
on skin color cut against whites, not in favor of them. Moreover, a simple Google search confirms that
00:48:13.720
what I think most people have just observed anecdotally, white people are not, on average, the most
00:48:20.620
financially successful group of the United States. Not even close, actually. If the system is built to
00:48:26.740
put us ahead, it seems to be massively malfunctioning at the moment. So the median household income for
00:48:33.440
Asian Americans is $20,000 higher than the median income for whites. Whites are $20,000 higher than
00:48:39.860
blacks, and Asians are doubly as financially successful as blacks. A simple narrative of white privilege
00:48:46.700
doesn't seem sufficient to explain this disparity, especially when you break Asian down into its
00:48:52.380
different distinct ethnic groups. So the median household income for Indian Americans is $126,000.
00:49:01.000
That's the median. That's nearly double the number for whites. Filipinos are $100,000. Same for
00:49:08.660
Taiwanese. Indonesians clock in at $93,000. Pakistanis, $87,000. Chinese, $85,000. Many of these ethnic groups
00:49:16.500
hail from poor countries. Many of these are Americans, you know, who are excelling to such
00:49:22.260
an degree, and they're second or even first-generation immigrants. They just got here, and they're already
00:49:28.400
enjoying enormous success. How could that happen in a country that is racist against non-whites,
00:49:34.940
and especially, as we're told, racist against non-white immigrants? Well, the answer is that the racism
00:49:41.800
narrative is false. Once we put that to the side, I think, we can have a more adult conversation about
00:49:48.820
how we might explain the incredible and inspiring success of Asian immigrants in this country.
00:49:55.040
And we might be able to explain the contrast between their success and the struggles of other
00:50:00.180
groups. The explanation is perhaps not simple, has many layers, but I think two factors immediately
00:50:06.340
spring to the foreground. First, Asians are more likely to get married and less likely to get
00:50:13.360
divorced than pretty much any other group. Second, as a general rule, these various ethnicities come
00:50:20.620
from cultures that put a high premium on hard work. So to review, they have stable families and they work
00:50:27.400
hard. In their home countries, that formula very often did not result in financial success, which is why
00:50:33.280
they came here. In this country, it almost always does, to one degree or another. Now, homing in on
00:50:40.260
just the first point here, a very interesting correlation comes into view. As you go down the
00:50:46.060
median income ladder from Asian to white to black, you notice that the broken and fatherless home rates
00:50:51.860
go up. So it's almost as if the more broken homes you have in your community, the more poverty you have
00:50:59.320
in your community. Fortunately, we don't need to speculate about whether there is a connection here.
00:51:02.640
In fact, literally every study ever done on the subject proves that there is a direct causal link
00:51:08.660
between the state of the family and poverty. There has never been any credible study, to my knowledge,
00:51:14.180
indicating that marriage and family are irrelevant or neutral factors when it comes to financial and
00:51:19.040
economic stability. That's how clear cut this is. Now, this connection obviously blows Stewart's
00:51:26.000
simplistic racial narrative out of the water. Any ethnic group can have wild success in this country if
00:51:30.820
they keep their family unit together. The evidence for that is incontrovertible. But is he still correct
00:51:37.320
that the American dream is a fallacy? Whether it's because of racism or not, and it's not, the fact is that
00:51:41.600
lots of people, as already acknowledged, are born into disadvantaged situations. It'll be harder for them to
00:51:47.760
climb to the top, whatever and wherever the top is for them, depending on what their goals are. Does this call into
00:51:52.760
question the American dream? No, it doesn't. Here we have to rely more on experience and observation
00:51:58.320
and anecdote because it's a very difficult thing to quantify on a bar graph. But if you look through
00:52:02.920
any of those lenses, you will see example after example of people in America starting at the dirt
00:52:07.220
bottom, beneath the bottom, starting in a hole in many cases, and yet climbing their way out and beyond,
00:52:12.260
far beyond, through determination and hard work. That's not some kind of myth or cliche. It actually
00:52:18.180
happens all the time. It's more than possible. In fact, I would go so far as to say that if you work
00:52:24.560
hard, barring an act of God, like a disaster or an illness of some kind, if you work hard, you are
00:52:30.000
virtually guaranteed to move up from where you started. Doesn't mean everyone's going to be
00:52:34.900
billionaires. Almost none of us ever will be billionaires. But hard work is absolutely one of the
00:52:39.880
most crucial and decisive factors which determines whether a person climbs up in life or stays stagnant or
00:52:44.700
regresses. It's not the only one. And it's not easy. I mean, nobody said it was easy. That's why
00:52:49.780
we call it hard work. But hard work does matter. Now, I can speak from my own experience. Every
00:52:54.460
person I know or who I've ever met in my life who has achieved their goals and found success has been
00:52:59.760
a very hard worker. I've never met an exception to that. This can't be a coincidence. It's not a
00:53:05.560
coincidence. Which is why, rather than the racial stuff, what we should be talking about is why so many,
00:53:12.460
especially young people in our culture today, young people of all races, seem so much to lack
00:53:17.800
drive, ambition, a willingness to put in the work. This is more than just the classic complaint about
00:53:23.980
kids today that every adult in history has always had about the next generation. This is something
00:53:28.940
realer than that, I think. There is without question a palpable malaise and sense of despair,
00:53:35.420
a pervasive lack of vision and ambition which has gripped hold of our society, especially younger
00:53:40.960
people. Being stuck in that kind of stupor will certainly affect your ability to succeed.
00:53:46.940
It will destroy it, in fact. It will essentially guarantee failure and disappointment.
00:53:52.760
But the causes of this cancer aren't systemic racism. It's rooted much more deeply than that.
00:53:59.540
That's a conversation we could have. But the John Stuarts of the world make that impossible by
00:54:04.040
distracting us and taking us off track with their incessant evil white man narrative.
00:54:08.020
And that's why Jon Stewart is, again, for the second time in two weeks, canceled.
00:54:13.400
And we'll leave it there for today. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Have a great day.
