The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 949 - Sending Billions To Ukraine While Babies In Our Own Country Run Out Of Food

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, politicians in D.C. ship $40 billion off to Ukraine,

00:00:04.460 while babies in our country don't even have enough food to eat. The priorities here seem

00:00:07.860 to be wildly out of whack. Also, the White House explicitly encourages more illegal protests out

00:00:12.300 of judges' homes. The Treasury Secretary worries about the economic impact of killing fewer babies.

00:00:17.460 Britney Spears fans are now worried about her mental health after mobilizing to get her freed

00:00:21.360 from her conservatorship. Perhaps they should have been more careful of what they wished for.

00:00:25.180 In an ideally cancellation, a local weatherman is smeared by the national media as a racist

00:00:29.440 because of something he tweeted about an NBA player, but was the comment actually racist?

00:00:33.660 We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:00:45.020 You know, right now there are 50 million kids attending America's public schools. The left

00:00:49.240 isn't even trying to hide it anymore. They have made it clear that their intention is to indoctrinate

00:00:53.320 the next generation in their ideology. Real world skills like reading, writing, arithmetic,

00:00:57.640 and American history have been replaced with social justice, gender confusion, test-driven

00:01:01.860 instruction in the classroom. Thankfully, you have a choice, and this is why Freedom Project

00:01:06.360 Academy was created. Freedom Project Academy is an accredited classical online school built on

00:01:11.240 Judeo-Christian values for students in kindergarten through high school. Freedom Project Academy has

00:01:15.920 taken the interaction of the traditional classroom and created an online atmosphere where students

00:01:19.920 across the country are instructed by live teachers in small classes who teach students how to think,

00:01:25.360 not what to think. So go to freedomforschool.com and request your free information packet today.

00:01:45.680 With our country ravaged by crisis after crisis and now facing inflation worse than anything we've seen

00:01:52.260 in my lifetime, in 40 years in fact, our leaders in D.C. have decided that now is the best time

00:01:57.120 to ship a little gift basket to Ukraine. Actually, it's a rather large gift basket and inside,

00:02:03.160 among other prizes and goodies, is $40 billion. The House yesterday, with the help of a majority of

00:02:08.680 Republicans, along with every Democrat, of course, last night, voted for and approved an additional

00:02:14.340 $40 billion to Ukraine. And when we say to Ukraine, we mean specifically to the government

00:02:22.200 of Ukraine, a government that happens to be among the most corrupt in the entire world,

00:02:27.260 a government which is also, most importantly, foreign. We are sending billions to a foreign

00:02:32.600 government. Billions more, I should say. As Representative Thomas Massey points out,

00:02:36.260 this is just the latest bundle of aid that we've sent to Ukraine. And when you add together

00:02:41.480 everything we've sent to the Ukrainian government over the past six months, you find that we have

00:02:45.040 spent more on Ukraine in half a year than we've spent on building roads and bridges in our own

00:02:50.800 country over the past entire year. Now, do we know exactly how this money will be spent? Will there

00:02:57.680 be any accountability? Do we, as the American taxpayers funding these sugar daddy payments,

00:03:03.500 have any ability whatsoever to influence or determine the manner in which this money is spent?

00:03:09.300 Do we directly benefit from these expenditures? Will giving your money to the Ukrainian government

00:03:14.360 help your family? I mean, isn't it a form of taxation without representation when money is sent to a

00:03:20.300 government that we, as the taxpayers, have no say in or influence over? The answer to that last

00:03:25.840 question is, of course, yes. As to all the rest, the answer is no, no, no, and no.

00:03:31.240 So how can this be justified? How can our leaders, especially now, given the dire economic straits

00:03:37.240 that our country is in, somehow justify sending another blank check to some foreign country 6,000 0.73

00:03:43.220 miles away? Well, Nancy Pelosi has an answer to that question, and she found it somehow

00:03:47.640 in scripture, if you can believe it. Listen to this.

00:03:51.600 The brutality of Putin is not just what he's doing in Ukraine, but the impact that it is having on food

00:03:59.400 for the world. So when you're home thinking, what is this all about? Just think about when I was hungry,

00:04:07.400 you fed me in the Gospel of Matthew. It also is so pleased that Mr. Meeks, the chairman of the Foreign

00:04:14.660 Affairs Committee, was with us because we talked about sanctions, which are a product of his committee.

00:04:21.480 So this is what happens when you quote the Bible without ever having once in your life open the

00:04:28.080 book to read it yourself. You might then embarrass yourself by claiming that when Jesus said feed the

00:04:32.900 hungry, he meant that we should line the pockets of corrupt foreign bureaucrats, politicians, and

00:04:37.760 defense contractors. That's what he meant by the hungry. And we have to do this because, as Mitch

00:04:43.740 McConnell explains, the situation in Ukraine is the most important thing going on in the entire world

00:04:49.620 right now. Listen. Everyone, I think we all agree the most important thing going on in the world

00:04:58.260 right now is the war in Ukraine. I had a chance to call the president last week and request that the

00:05:05.880 Ukraine package move by itself and quickly. He said, let me think it over. He called back in about 15

00:05:15.980 minutes and agreed that we need to do this Ukraine only and quickly. I think we're on the path to 0.95

00:05:25.860 getting that done. Discussions are underway between the House and Senate appropriators on the crafting

00:05:32.200 of the package. It needs to be clean of extraneous matters directly related to helping the Ukrainians

00:05:39.060 win the war. Ukraine only. Ukraine first. Make Ukraine great again. Always remember my rule of

00:05:48.620 bipartisanship, which is that if both parties want to do something and can actually agree on it,

00:05:53.680 that only means that the idea is so uniquely terrible that it managed to appeal to both sides.

00:05:58.880 If Democrats are the only ones who want to do something, it's always a bad idea. If Republicans

00:06:04.660 are the only ones who want to do something, it's very often a bad idea, especially if it's the

00:06:08.660 establishment or the Republican Party in DC. But if they both together are looking at each other and

00:06:14.480 say, yeah, this is a great idea, guys, let's do it. A hundred percent of the time, it's a bad idea.

00:06:21.500 Now McConnell says that we can all agree that Ukraine is the most important thing in the world right

00:06:27.180 now. And when he says all, he means literally just the people in that room and elsewhere in the

00:06:32.380 building. Because if you go outside of that room and you travel, say to, I don't know, the nearest

00:06:36.940 gas station, you will not find a single person, not a single one who identifies Ukraine as their

00:06:46.060 highest priority. It is a special sickness of American politicians that they always think the

00:06:52.400 most important needs in the world are the needs of people who are not American. And that is certainly 1.00

00:06:58.380 not the way that most Americans see it, however. In fact, I would have a difficult time listing all

00:07:03.620 the things that are more important to me than Ukraine because the list would be far too long.

00:07:08.820 Suffice it to say that anything and everything which directly impacts my family, my community,

00:07:13.780 and my countrymen is more important to me than Ukraine. The very existence of Ukraine as a country

00:07:20.960 is not as important to me. It's actually not that important to me at all, in fact.

00:07:25.480 And I'll give you something that is certainly far, far more important than Ukraine and which should

00:07:31.400 be, at this point, the top priority of every politician in D.C. if they weren't busy figuring

00:07:35.480 out how to make Ukrainian bureaucrats richer, and that is the baby formula shortage. There is a

00:07:41.400 nationwide shortage of baby formula that has reached crisis levels. CNN, which has finally decided

00:07:47.160 to begrudgingly acknowledge this problem, reports today, quote, and some of these numbers are just

00:07:53.840 shocking. So listen to this. For months, stores nationwide have been struggling to stock enough

00:07:58.160 baby formula. Manufacturers say they're producing at full capacity and making as much formula as they

00:08:03.400 can, but it's still not enough to meet current demand. The out-of-stock rate for baby formula hovered

00:08:08.100 between 2% and 8% in the first half of 2021, like right when Biden got into office, but began rising

00:08:15.520 sharply last July. Between November 2021 and early April 2022, the out-of-stock rate jumped to 31%.

00:08:22.640 That rate increased another 9% points in just three weeks in April, and now stands at 40%.

00:08:29.960 In six states, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota, Missouri, Texas, and Tennessee, more than half of

00:08:36.280 baby formula was completely sold out during the week starting April 24th. And although seven states had

00:08:41.520 between 40-50% of baby formula products out of stock as of early April, 26 states are now struggling

00:08:46.780 with supply. Many stores are now, as I mentioned yesterday, they're rationing baby formula. Some

00:08:53.220 parents report having to drive hours just to find a single container of it. And this is a major problem

00:08:59.680 because, and this I think comes maybe as a surprise to non-parents, it certainly, it did surprise me,

00:09:05.240 y'all admit. And that is that breastfeeding is not an easy or automatic thing. Some women are not able

00:09:12.980 to breastfeed at all for a variety of reasons. In many cases, as was the case with our twins,

00:09:17.500 breastfeeding has to be supplemented with formula to make sure the babies get all the nutrients they 0.98

00:09:20.960 need. It's possible to make formula at home, but if you don't do it right or use the correct

00:09:27.000 ingredients, you could deprive your child of the nutrition that he needs to grow or even just survive.

00:09:31.020 You know, some people trying to dismiss this problem have just waved their hands and said,

00:09:36.060 well, what did people do before prepackaged baby formula existed?

00:09:40.360 The answer is that lots of babies were malnourished and many of them died. That's what people did.

00:09:48.160 The infant mortality rate was astronomical everywhere in pre-modern times. That had a lot

00:09:53.180 to do with diseases and the lack of proper medicine and modern medicine, but also a lack of proper

00:09:57.880 nutrition played a significant role. So why is this happening? Now, apologists for the Biden

00:10:05.400 administration have tried to blame, of course, everyone and everything, but Biden and his

00:10:11.000 administration, they point to the pandemic, the supply chain, one source of the problem. They say

00:10:16.120 they also note that Abbott Nutrition, which is a manufacturer of baby formula, recalled three of its

00:10:21.380 products because of possible bacterial contamination. And that happened a few months ago. And that's true.

00:10:27.220 But what they fail to mention is that the FDA, a federal agency controlled by the administration,

00:10:32.740 has made the problem exponentially worse, as always. There is a vast surplus of baby formula in

00:10:40.660 Europe, which could be imported to the US to help solve this problem. But the FDA has made importing

00:10:46.020 much of it illegal because they have not approved the European formula, despite the fact that it's

00:10:51.280 perfectly safe and it's used by millions of parents and consumed by millions of babies in Europe

00:10:56.260 without any problem. So as usual, bureaucracy walls off potential solutions to major problems

00:11:05.160 with regulation and red tape. That's a big part of this story. Now, of course, the FDA isn't the only

00:11:11.840 culprit here. They're simply being as useless, onerous and counterproductive as they always are. 0.97

00:11:17.040 And the shortage cannot be blamed entirely on Biden, obviously. But the great sin committed by Biden and 0.96

00:11:23.460 our other leaders in D.C. when it comes to this issue is that they are not focused on trying to

00:11:28.060 solve it. I mean, we pay the federal government $4 trillion a year so that they can take care of

00:11:37.480 issues like this. And for all that money that we spend, we should be able to expect that they'll

00:11:43.880 take care of issues like this. Like we are a modern, industrialized Western country and we spend

00:11:52.620 $4 trillion a year on this government. We should not have babies potentially starving because they

00:11:59.640 don't have enough formula. But we do because, you know, our politicians that are worried about Ukraine

00:12:06.980 and about a thousand other things that should be much further down the list of priorities,

00:12:11.720 if those things even make it on the list at all. As I pointed out yesterday, we've heard more from

00:12:18.540 the federal government about the student loan crisis than we have about this crisis.

00:12:24.380 They have greater concern for graduate students whining about their bills than for infants who don't

00:12:30.700 have enough food to eat. Infantilized adults taking priority over actual infants. Just as Ukrainian 1.00

00:12:39.540 bureaucrats take priority over infants in this country. There are many different comparisons that

00:12:44.820 put this into perspective. And all in all, the picture here is that our politicians have many priorities.

00:12:52.320 None of them include doing the job that we actually put them there to do. Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:13:00.700 You ever notice it when stores are trying to sell products they know next to nothing about? Maybe

00:13:10.260 they push the shoes that are shoes that are most popular rather than the ones that actually fit your

00:13:14.100 feet. Well, I like rockauto.com because what they know is auto parts and all they sell is auto parts

00:13:19.600 and related tools. Rock Auto is a family business founded by automotive engineers over 20 years ago.

00:13:24.800 Their original goal was and still is to make auto parts available and affordable so customers can keep

00:13:29.300 their daily drivers and classic cars safely on the road every day. Rockauto.com's online parts catalog

00:13:36.060 is uniquely easy to use. You quickly see all the parts available for your specific car or your SUV or

00:13:41.600 truck, whatever you drive. There are photos, specs, and installation tips to help you pick the best parts

00:13:45.540 to meet your vehicle's needs. Rockauto.com will not only have the part, but usually they'll give you

00:13:50.120 several trusted brands to choose from. Rock Auto's kits are also popular because they bundle together all the

00:13:55.260 parts needed for a successful repair. You don't get halfway through installing a timing bell to

00:14:00.040 discover you need another pulley. Professional mechanics and do-it-yourselfers always pay the

00:14:04.000 same reliably low prices with rockauto.com. So go to rockauto.com, get the brakes, shocks, carpet,

00:14:09.160 wipers, headlights, mirrors, mufflers, lug nuts, or any other part you need. Be sure to check Walsh in

00:14:13.720 there. How did you hear about us, Fox? So they know that I sent you. And the other thing to keep

00:14:17.900 in mind too, by the way, when you hear about the, you know, as we're now starting finally to hear

00:14:22.540 about the baby formula shortage problem, and this is a problem that's been brewing for months and has

00:14:27.240 been a problem for months, and we're just starting to hear about it because the media has no choice now

00:14:32.300 but to report on it. And along with the recall, and they're going to blame that, and I already explained

00:14:39.500 how, you know, that, yeah, some of that goes back to the FDA though, because they're preventing us from

00:14:44.840 solving that problem. But the other thing is this claim that, well, it's because of the pandemic, the

00:14:51.180 pandemic-related supply chain issues. Well, always remember when you hear that as an explanation or an

00:14:58.100 excuse for any of the problems we're suffering through right now, including the baby formula,

00:15:02.300 shortage. When they hear it, well, it's pandemic-related. No, it's not pandemic-related.

00:15:08.140 There is no reason why COVID itself would have caused a supply chain problem.

00:15:14.400 There is no reason why COVID itself, the virus, would have stopped us from having enough baby formula.

00:15:22.120 No, that all stems from the policies that were put in place in this country and in countries across

00:15:28.060 the world. It was the decision by politicians, many of them still in power in DC right now,

00:15:35.100 to shut the world down for no reason, ostensibly because of COVID. That's what it comes back to.

00:15:42.960 It's not pandemic. It's not COVID. It's them and their policies. So in the end, it does all come back to

00:15:50.600 them. And speaking of them, Jen Psaki is not exactly discouraging more illegal protests at 1.00

00:16:00.560 the Supreme Court, which are, again, we should continue to note, illegal federal crimes. You

00:16:06.360 cannot do this. It's actually not everyone when you see this footage and you think, well, how is that

00:16:11.300 legal to gather an angry mob outside of a Supreme Court justice's house, try to get them to change

00:16:18.020 their mind about something? How is that legal? Well, the good news is it's actually not legal.

00:16:22.400 The bad news is that the people in charge of enforcing the law are not going to do it.

00:16:27.280 And in fact, they're going the other way. Listen to what Jen Psaki said yesterday. Listen.

00:16:31.320 I know that there's an outrage right now, I guess, about protests that have been peaceful to date.

00:16:37.000 And we certainly continue to encourage that outside of judges' homes. And that's the president's

00:16:41.420 position. We certainly continue to encourage that. What is that?

00:16:48.440 Protests. Now, they're going to explain that away by saying, well, she meant encourage it to be

00:16:56.920 peaceful. Well, one way or another, you are encouraging, quote, peaceful protests.

00:17:04.860 When they're actually not peaceful at all. Okay, and they don't need to start throwing Molotov

00:17:10.820 cocktails. I mean, they've already done that. Pro-abortion militants and terrorists have already

00:17:15.400 been throwing Molotov cocktails. And there's no question that eventually it's going to get to the

00:17:22.320 point of actual physical violence. But it's not really peaceful when, number one, it's against the

00:17:27.380 law. And number two, the intention behind the, quote, unquote, protest is to intimidate.

00:17:35.360 Not only that, but to intimidate a judge to change his decision

00:17:38.820 on a case. That, it's hard to call that peaceful.

00:17:45.620 Because there's always, there is the, the threat of violence,

00:17:49.420 which is bubbling always under the surface here.

00:17:53.300 That's the context. Okay. That's the, that's the implication of all of this.

00:18:02.540 The only reason that you, that's the only reason that you show up. The only reason that you show up

00:18:06.660 to somebody's house. I mean, it's one thing if you're picketing outside of a government facility,

00:18:11.500 if you want to go outside of the Supreme Court itself and protest, well, you have the right to do

00:18:15.720 that. But the only reason that you go to somebody's house is to send the message that number one, we

00:18:22.700 know where you live. And number two, therefore you are not safe. So no matter what the protesters do

00:18:33.040 when they get there, it is not peaceful. And Jen Psaki and by administration knows that, but they are

00:18:38.060 openly now, you want to talk about calling for an insurrection. They are openly calling for their

00:18:43.280 supporters to break federal law, to influence a Supreme Court decision. What you just heard from

00:18:49.940 Jen Psaki is goes way further than anything that Donald Trump said on January 6th, because the fact 1.00

00:18:59.800 Donald Trump did not at any point tell anyone to break the law. He didn't say, oh, invade the Capitol

00:19:08.060 building, but do it peacefully. I mean, if he had done that, then it's, I mean, it's game over. He

00:19:14.560 told, he told them to go break the law. That's exactly what we just heard from the White House

00:19:19.980 there. Yeah. Break federal law, but do it peacefully. Meanwhile, we've got Nancy Pelosi. We just heard 0.97

00:19:29.140 from her, but she was also talking about, you know, she, she is of course outraged by the fact that,

00:19:33.500 that more babies are going to live and not be killed. And here she is reminiscing about the

00:19:39.840 Republican party of old, which was, she says, you know, among other things, pro-abortion. Listen.

00:19:47.320 The fossil fuel industry, they weigh in so significantly. I mean, how could it be

00:19:57.560 that nobody on the Senate side cares, and the Senate cares about climate? Some of them do,

00:20:07.160 and they talk about it. When it comes to the votes, it just isn't there. They're just aren't there. So

00:20:12.960 rather than saying, well, we have to defeat them. No, let's just try to persuade them.

00:20:17.740 I want the Republican party to take back the party, take it back to where you were, where you cared about

00:20:23.440 a woman's right to choose, and you cared about the environment. Here I am, Nancy Pelosi, saying this

00:20:37.760 country needs a strong Republican party, and we do. Not a cult, but a strong Republican party.

00:20:45.820 Yes, let's go back to when the Republican party was pro-abortion. When was that exactly? I mean,

00:20:49.860 she's right in a sense that the Republican party has historically been, if not actively pro-abortion,

00:20:57.960 at least submissive on the issue, and still largely is. And that's really what she's calling for,

00:21:05.040 is just, hey, look, this is always the message from Democrats, which is, we can get along,

00:21:11.620 and we can all be friends, or at least act like it, as long as you do exactly what I want you to do.

00:21:16.500 Just stay out of my way, cooperate with everything that I want to do, and there will be no problem.

00:21:24.380 We can have bipartisanship. In fact, in that case. Now we have Janet Yellen, who's the Treasury 0.98

00:21:31.560 Secretary, and she was testifying yesterday in front of a Senate committee about

00:21:36.740 the effects of abortion on the economy. They brought her in to talk about how it might 0.69

00:21:44.160 hurt the economy if we stop killing babies, or not stop killing them, but rather if we slow the rate 0.51

00:21:52.740 by which we are murdering babies, it will maybe hurt the economy. She's very concerned about that.

00:21:57.800 Let's listen to that.

00:21:59.500 If the draft of the court's majority holding in Roe versus Wade is the actual decision,

00:22:07.360 what impact will the loss of abortion access mean economically for women? 1.00

00:22:11.000 Well, I believe that eliminating the right of women to make decisions about when and whether to have 1.00

00:22:19.100 children would have very damaging effects on the economy and would set women back decades. 0.76

00:22:27.600 Roe v. Wade, in access to reproductive health care, including abortion, helped lead to increased

00:22:35.000 labor force participation. It enabled many women to finish school. That increased their earning 0.85

00:22:43.400 potential. It allowed women to plan and balance their families and careers. And research also shows

00:22:51.600 that it had a favorable impact on the well-being and earnings of children.

00:22:58.700 All right. So we heard from her there. She's concerned that abortion will hurt the economy because 0.99

00:23:05.740 it'll stop women from participating in the workforce. We have to kill babies in order to help the 1.00

00:23:12.300 economy. This is, again, we have to remind ourselves, that's eugenics. That's what eugenics is. 1.00

00:23:18.820 Getting rid of the undesirables, the people that are slowing everything down, bringing the economy down, 1.00

00:23:29.540 just exterminate them for the sake of the economy, for this very kind of utilitarian reason. 0.96

00:23:35.440 That's just a form of eugenics, really. And on top of being morally atrocious, which it is for so many 0.98

00:23:46.900 reasons, number one being you're totally disregarding and ignoring the humanity and dignity and worth of

00:23:55.240 the child. But also, it's again this message to women, which is that you have to choose between your 0.78

00:24:03.720 child and your career. You can be successful professionally, or you can be a mother.

00:24:12.140 And you have to choose one or the other. And the right choice, in fact, is to choose your career and

00:24:15.840 kill your child. That's the message, which is not so subtly embedded in what you just heard there. 1.00

00:24:24.240 And our response to that, by the way, I think there's a little bit of nuance here that we have

00:24:30.580 to keep in mind. Because I think sometimes conservatives will respond to claims like that

00:24:36.180 by saying, oh, that's absurd. You could be a mother, you can have your kid, and you can have

00:24:41.860 everything. You can have all the financial success in the world. Lots of times, people will use someone

00:24:46.160 like Amy Coney Barrett as an example. I mean, she's adopted kids. She has biological kids. She has, 0.76

00:24:53.900 what is it, five or six kids now. And she's on the Supreme Court. I mean, she's had enormous

00:24:59.000 professional success. She's made it all the way to the very pinnacle of her career while being a 0.82

00:25:04.180 mother to five or six kids. And they use that kind of as an example. And that's true, and that's a

00:25:12.000 great point to bring up. But we should also acknowledge that very often there are going to be

00:25:19.140 trade-offs. And if you have kids, there are exceptions to this. There's no guarantee. I mean,

00:25:28.940 you kind of make your own path in life. But yeah, when you have kids, there's certainly a financial

00:25:36.700 sacrifice that goes with that. There's sacrifices that you make in your lifestyle. That's true.

00:25:44.840 And I don't think we want to, we're not hiding from that. We shouldn't hide from that.

00:25:49.820 I mean, we shouldn't respond to that by acting like, oh, having a kid will have no impact at all

00:25:54.300 financially, and everything will be fine. No, I know that, I know that that's the case in my own

00:26:00.720 family. Anyone with kids, you know that. You know, when you have kids, we have four kids, you end up

00:26:07.140 living a more humble life than you otherwise maybe could have afforded to live. You're going to have

00:26:13.360 less spending money, you're going to have less ability to go on nice vacations, and all these

00:26:18.360 kinds of things. I mean, you are making sacrifices. But the sacrifice is worth it.

00:26:27.160 I mean, what you get in exchange for that is a family, is fulfillment,

00:26:31.360 fulfillment, is purpose, is love, is legacy. You know, you have something you're going to leave

00:26:43.020 behind when you finally are released from this mortal coil. So yeah, the sacrifices are there,

00:26:51.000 but that's what you get instead. Because as it turns out, we are not all just cogs in the economic

00:26:58.780 machine. Which is the interesting thing, because on the left, you know, they also, they pretend to be

00:27:06.280 anti-capitalist and all this kind of stuff. But at the same time, they make us all seem like that's

00:27:11.000 all we are. And especially if you're a woman, the greatest thing you could hope to be in life

00:27:15.560 is, you know, to get a position in management at some corporation.

00:27:21.700 To have a nice cubicle, or even better, an office somewhere, in an office building,

00:27:25.400 a skyscraper, like that's, that is the pinnacle of human existence. Say the alleged anti-capitalists.

00:27:33.740 It's not. When you decide to have kids, when you have a family, you get something much greater

00:27:37.700 and deeper than that. And there are sacrifices, but anything in life worth having, there are going

00:27:43.440 to be sacrifices that come with it. All right, let's go to this from the Daily Mail. It says,

00:27:50.900 now, I want you to, I'm going to read this article as it was written. Okay, because that's really the

00:28:00.280 main point I want to make about this, is the way that this is written. Okay. From the Daily Mail,

00:28:05.300 it says, a transgender mother who forced the seven-year-old daughter she fathered to engage

00:28:11.240 in child pornography at her New Jersey home has been jailed for 25 years without parole,

00:28:15.920 along with three accomplices. Marina Volz, previously named Matthew, was sentenced on Friday

00:28:22.740 alongside another transgender woman, Ashley Romero, previously named Adam, and two other offenders,

00:28:28.320 Sean Allen and Dolcina Necco, 21. Volz32 ran a, quote, family-owned transgender pornography 0.78

00:28:37.320 production studio specializing in amateur BDSM and taboo fetish content from her home in Franklin

00:28:44.860 Township. And it goes further into the details, which I'm not even going to read because it's

00:28:51.980 totally horrifying. I mean, what they did to this child is just beyond description. And the fact that

00:28:58.000 we're, I mean, 25 years in jail for sexually torturing your child is, that's a slap on the wrist.

00:29:08.720 I mean, you might as well give them, you might as well just put them in county lockup for a day

00:29:14.720 in comparison to what the penalty ought to be. I mean, just think about that. In the United States

00:29:22.460 of America, this is someone sexually torturing and exploiting their own child, and they're going to

00:29:28.960 see the outside of a jail cell. In fact, he's going to be 25 years, they say, without the possibility

00:29:37.260 of parole. We'll see about that. Even if he spends every day of that in jail, he'll be out by the age

00:29:44.140 of late 50s, early 60s. No, this should be, you're convicted of it. And then the very next day, we,

00:29:57.200 you know, take you up to the, to the gallows and we take care of the problem. 0.91

00:30:05.200 Public execution would be the really the best solution here for somebody like that. But on top 0.98

00:30:11.200 of that, we are respecting the pronouns and self-identification of a child rapist who raped 0.99

00:30:20.760 and sexually tortured their, their, his own child. And that's how we end up with a, with a phrase like 0.88

00:30:28.480 she fathered, which would be bad enough being as it's completely incoherent.

00:30:36.540 But we're finding that phrase in this article about this person.

00:30:43.160 Because we're afraid about, we're afraid of hurting his feelings. 0.98

00:30:49.180 Raped and sexually abused his own child. And we're afraid that if he sees the Daily Mail article, 0.97

00:30:53.080 his feelings will be hurt.

00:30:58.580 It's total, total moral insanity. All right. This is from the New York Post. It says,

00:31:03.380 Stanford University has launched a hate crime investigation after a noose was found hanging

00:31:07.620 from a tree as at a residence hall. In an email to students and staff, university officials said

00:31:12.700 campus safety authorities immediately removed the noose and retained it as evidence.

00:31:18.980 The official at the university says, we cannot state strongly enough that a noose is a reprehensible

00:31:23.980 symbol of anti-black racism and violence that will not be tolerated on our campus. It is the moral

00:31:29.520 responsibility of those with any knowledge of this incident to come forward. Now I'm only reading

00:31:34.860 this story because I want to go, usually I ignore these stories until it is inevitably revealed that

00:31:41.720 it's a hoax. So I just, I'm gonna go on the record right now and say, this is either a hoax. Now this

00:31:46.060 is, there's, there's two possibilities. Um, one is that it's just a straight up hoax, probably most

00:31:52.300 likely one. The other one is that, and, and often we find in these kinds of stories, it turns out that

00:31:56.780 it was, uh, you know, it's like a tire, tire swing that somebody misinterpreted or a garage door pull

00:32:02.020 famously like at NASCAR. So I'm going to go on the record right now. And I give it about a week until

00:32:07.340 we get the, we get the meek, quiet sort of little update from the police saying, oh yeah, it turns out

00:32:12.860 that, uh, nevermind, just forget about this whole story. And despite that fact, despite the fact that

00:32:20.280 these hoaxes are so common that when you read the story, you already know for near a hundred percent

00:32:26.580 certainty that it is a hoax. Despite that, when they find the quote noose, uh, the statement

00:32:33.840 immediately says, oh, it's a symbol of anti-black racism. I ask again, that has there actually been

00:32:40.360 a real authentic case in the last, in this century, in this century, has there been a real authentic

00:32:47.840 case of a, of an anti-black racist, a white person hanging a noose somewhere as an, as a symbol of

00:32:55.360 racism? Has, has that happened at all anywhere this century? I'm not aware of a single case of it.

00:33:04.120 And I highly doubt that this incident at Stanford in California will, will be the, uh, the first such

00:33:11.560 authentic example in, in the past century, at least. But one thing we can be sure is that, uh,

00:33:19.600 the FBI, federal government, they're going to be on the case here. They sent, what was it? 20 agents

00:33:24.420 to investigate the garage door pull and Bubba Wallace's garage. So how many are they going to

00:33:28.420 send to Stanford? While they have crazed mobs violating federal law and hunting down Supreme

00:33:35.040 Court justice, uh, they don't have time to deal with that. They're going to be over in Stanford looking

00:33:38.520 into this, uh, tire swing or, you know, whatever it was. All right. Another story is from the Daily

00:33:45.160 Wire. It says, Britney Spears elicited concern among her fans after posting a series of full front

00:33:49.960 naked pictures on Instagram on Monday. The photo shows Spears totally nude, except for her hands

00:33:55.300 attempting to cover her breasts and a small heart covering her genitals. Spears, who, uh, has two 1.00

00:33:59.780 teenage sons, is currently pregnant with a child, um, wrote, quote, photo jump dump of the last time I was

00:34:06.060 in Mexico before there was a baby inside me. Why the heck do I look 10 years younger on vacation?

00:34:11.300 So this is something that Britney Spears is doing apparently a lot. She just posts these,

00:34:14.960 these naked pictures all the time. She's a 40 year old woman, by the way. And, um, but the story here 0.73

00:34:20.420 is that now her fans are concerned. And so now I guess originally when she started doing this,

00:34:24.980 they were kind of into it, but now people are getting concerned about it. They're like,

00:34:28.560 you're a 40 year old woman. You're, you know, you got all the money in the world. What do you do?

00:34:33.180 What is this? What are you doing? And they're very worried about her mental health,

00:34:37.000 which gives me an opportunity. You know, how hesitant I am to do it. And you know how much I

00:34:43.620 hate to do this, but it does give me an opportunity that I have to take advantage of to say,

00:34:48.800 I mean, I told you so. What if Britney Spears is actually insane though? Like we seem to have 0.89

00:34:57.540 ruled out that possibility. If she's, if she's actually, I don't know. I don't know what her

00:35:05.500 mental health situation is. Um, but if she's actually psychotic or insane or something, 0.98

00:35:14.300 then that's probably why the conservatorship was put in place to begin with. It doesn't justify

00:35:19.380 everything that's been done under the guise of conservatorship, uh, necessarily, but that's why

00:35:24.260 it's there. So all the protesters who for months or years now, some of them showing up at the

00:35:31.480 courtroom demanding, take the conservatorship ship off. Like, do you know something about Britney

00:35:36.340 Spears, Spears' mental health situation that the people involved in this case, the judges and

00:35:43.840 everyone don't know? What information do you have? Because what you're saying is, no, just take it off.

00:35:49.580 But what if she really is not competent, is not able to handle her own affairs? 0.99

00:35:56.560 Back when the whole free Britney movement was happening, I did address it one time on the show

00:36:01.520 and I, and I just wanted to remind everybody who, I guess they, they saw a Netflix documentary

00:36:07.180 and because of the documentary, they decided that, oh, Britney Spears, she shouldn't be in a 0.56

00:36:11.760 conservatorship. Like that was, to see this documentary, that was enough for them to make a,

00:36:17.380 a judgment about Britney Spears' psychological state and to declare that, no, she's perfectly

00:36:25.440 capable of taking care of herself. She's not a threat to herself or others. And they all got that

00:36:32.120 from a documentary, like 90 minutes. That was all they needed. And my point was, um,

00:36:38.260 how, I wouldn't, I wouldn't, I don't know how you know that. Like, slow down a little bit.

00:36:48.320 Um, I mean, there, there are cases where people are not psychologically fit and who do need

00:36:55.780 conservatorships because they are a danger to themselves and others. Like that does exist in

00:37:00.560 the world. And how do we know that Britney Spears doesn't fall into that category? How do we know that

00:37:06.700 exactly? Because although I admit I haven't followed her career that closely, what I do know about

00:37:11.720 Britney Spears is that she's had multiple public mental breakdowns. And I also know that she lost

00:37:18.900 custody of her kids in California. And as a woman to begin with in any court to lose custody of your

00:37:27.020 kids is almost impossible to do it in California. I mean, you have to be psychotically insane and 0.97

00:37:33.160 dangerous. It is very, very difficult as a woman to lose complete custody of your kids, especially 0.98

00:37:37.900 in a court in California. And she did. And on top of that, not only a woman, California and rich and

00:37:46.580 famous, and she lost custody of her kids. That's actually all as a common sense kind of guy. That's

00:37:53.120 all I need to know. That's I don't need to know anything else. I already know you've got serious,

00:37:58.220 serious problems if that happened to you in your situation. But all the fans got together and said,

00:38:07.060 free Britney, take her out of the conservatorship. Now, look, if the argument all along was

00:38:11.940 we don't think she should be in a conservatorship under her father, but someone else should be in

00:38:20.400 charge of it, then that's a different. Again, I still wouldn't, there would still be a question

00:38:24.560 about how you could possibly make that judgment as a person in the peanut gallery who has no

00:38:29.540 intimate familiarity with the issue. You don't know Britney Spears. You don't know her father.

00:38:33.720 You don't know anything. You haven't seen the mental health evaluations. You don't know any of

00:38:36.900 that. So how could you possibly make the determination? But that's a different argument.

00:38:42.200 And as much as her dad's been villainized, well, I would say he almost certainly mostly deserves it 0.88

00:38:48.600 just based on the fact that he, you know, sent his 16-year-old daughter off to become a sex symbol.

00:38:54.040 I mean, he has a 16-year-old daughter in the 90s dressed as a Catholic schoolgirl singing, 0.81

00:38:59.200 you know, hit me baby one more time. So that already tells me that you're a terrible father. 0.97

00:39:03.760 So that I'm on board with. If you want to say he's a terrible guy, fine.

00:39:08.320 But that wasn't the argument. The argument was, well, let's just free her completely.

00:39:12.640 And now the people that were in that movement are saying, oh, I don't know. She seems to be kind

00:39:16.380 of crazy. Well, yeah. That's, that's generally that's how you end up. You lose custody of your 0.92

00:39:23.240 kids. You end up with a conservatorship. It's because you're crazy. That's, that's how that

00:39:27.780 works. So nicely done, everybody. Give yourselves a pat on the back. Let's get to our daily, or rather

00:39:35.940 to our comment section.

00:39:37.840 All right. What do we got here? So Jesse says, I'm a little triggered by the girl in today's

00:39:56.820 cancellation. She attributed Crocs to depression. Crocs are cool, comfortable, and stylish. They're

00:40:01.640 also good for mowing lawns and grilling. No, I'm going to say my judgment call here is that Crocs 0.94

00:40:06.260 are not acceptable. If you're going for the lazy, ugly footwear thing, then socks and sandals are

00:40:14.220 what you want to go. Socks and sandals are totally acceptable in really any circumstance. And so that's

00:40:20.280 where you want to go. But I'm going to say no to the Crocs, unfortunately. Another comment says,

00:40:25.840 Matt's next show, Matt doing a gut-wrenching interpretive dance on the left's latest foibles.

00:40:31.280 That's when I get to a million subscribers. Okay. I get to a, I'm going to tell you this right now.

00:40:34.800 And you know that when I make promises like this, I always keep them. I get to a million subscribers

00:40:39.160 on YouTube and I will do an interpretive dance to express my gratitude. Take that to the bank.

00:40:49.300 Let's see. Lynette says, I was under the impression that the phrase it's okay to not be okay was not

00:40:54.220 intended to encourage succumbing to your situation, but rather acknowledging that your situation is tough

00:40:58.080 and that instead of pretending you're okay, you should identify what's wrong and work to improve

00:41:01.640 your situation. I mean, that may be one way to interpret that cliche of it's okay to not be okay,

00:41:09.680 but that's not, you know, that's, that's not the way that phrase is often used.

00:41:16.920 Maybe that's how it was originally intended, but that's not how it's often used.

00:41:20.820 These days, my issue with it is that it's used as a way of saying,

00:41:24.120 just like we saw in the video, the TikTok video of the woman saying she was depressed.

00:41:29.920 And so she does, you know, she, she doesn't brush her teeth. 1.00

00:41:32.460 She doesn't practice good hygiene. She doesn't care. 1.00

00:41:36.300 And she put the video out there because she wanted to be applauded for that.

00:41:39.060 And she wanted to be affirmed in that kind of laziness and just sort of giving up and not

00:41:42.940 caring about things. So the way the way the phrase is used in a, in a, in a way that's very

00:41:47.920 much connected to that kind of attitude of, well, hey, just kind of, just kind of live in it.

00:41:52.400 Don't aim up, don't try to overcome. In fact, it's considered offensive these days. If somebody

00:42:01.220 says they have a, especially if they're struggling with something psychologically, they say they're

00:42:05.000 depressed to suggest that there's anything they could do or should do, you know, to take control,

00:42:15.060 to, to, you know, to improve their situation psychologically. That that's offensive to suggest

00:42:22.420 that. I mean, if you're to say something, oh, you're depressed. Well, you know, here's some

00:42:26.200 things maybe you could try to do that might make you feel a little bit better and might improve

00:42:29.120 your situation in life and might, you know, might, might help you see things from a different

00:42:32.260 perspective. Unless all you're allowed to do is say, well, here's some drugs, take those.

00:42:36.700 But anything beyond that is considered offensive. And finally, Lynette says, it's pretty funny how

00:42:44.680 Matt's germophobia completely vanished in the wake of COVID. Yeah, it was something I was noticing

00:42:50.960 about myself recently too, is because before COVID, I admitted to being, you know, basically

00:42:56.540 kind of a germaphobe. And so you would think that if anyone would start wearing the mask and all that,

00:43:03.880 like I would be in that category as someone who's, you know, was worried about germs, but

00:43:08.400 I'm actually after through when COVID started through COVID and now I'm a lot less worried

00:43:14.760 about germs than I ever was before. So I went in the exact opposite direction of what I think a lot

00:43:18.540 of other people. And I think that's because on one hand I had the germophobia going on, but on the

00:43:23.600 other hand, I have the kind of contrarian part of myself. And those two things were very much at war

00:43:28.020 as soon as COVID started and the contrarianism won out, which I think is a, I take that as a

00:43:35.560 success story, I think. Well, you know, there are very few social events that I will willingly

00:43:40.760 subject myself to, let alone enjoy myself out. But Backstage Live happens to be one of them. Not

00:43:46.060 that I, it's not really willing either. I mean, I have to go, but still I do enjoy Backstage Live and

00:43:51.880 I think you'll enjoy it too. So here's your chance to join me and the Daily Wire crew for Backstage Live

00:43:56.020 on June 29th at the historic Ryman Auditorium in downtown Nashville, Tennessee. We've been on a

00:44:00.320 huge winning streak from suing the federal government to, you know, to stop their tyrannical

00:44:04.200 vaccine mandate to announcing our $100 million challenge to woke Disney with DW kids. Also we

00:44:10.360 have, you may not have heard, the best-selling children's book as well. That makes this the

00:44:37.040 Backstage Live at the Ryman in Nashville on June 29th. See you there. Now let's get to our daily

00:44:40.840 cancellation. Today we have many cancellations to hand out, all revolving around a local Fox weatherman

00:44:50.600 in Memphis named Joey Sulopec. Now why do we need to talk about a weatherman in Memphis? I mean,

00:44:55.960 what could he possibly have done to warrant discussion? Well, according to the media,

00:45:00.200 he did a tweet. And not just any tweet, but a racist tweet. Indeed, the headlines, and there are a lot

00:45:05.580 of headlines about this weatherman's tweet, all agree that the tweet was racist and that he is racist

00:45:09.760 and that he likely holds Klan meetings in his basement every Tuesday. Just to give you an idea,

00:45:13.740 here are some of the headlines. Just reading a few. Memphis meteorologists under fire over racist

00:45:19.940 Draymond Green tweet. Local TV meteorologists in Memphis sparks furor with racist comments about

00:45:26.040 warriors Draymond Green. Memphis TV station promises investigation after meteorologists

00:45:30.940 sends racist tweet about warriors Draymond Green. Draymond Green is the target of Memphis meteorologists

00:45:37.900 racial slur. And then Fox 13 TV weatherman makes stunningly racist comment about Draymond Green.

00:45:46.360 Now you'll notice that none of these headlines use the word alleged or purported or possible.

00:45:52.400 If they use any qualifier at all, it's stunning. They simply assert that he used a racial slur and

00:45:58.900 that's the end of it. No further discussion necessary. But if you're wondering what the man actually said,

00:46:05.160 as if such a detail even matters anymore, here's the New York Post article. It says,

00:46:09.180 a Memphis-based meteorologist is under investigation by his employer for using a racial slur in a tweet

00:46:14.820 about Warriors star Draymond Green amid the Grizzlies Warriors playoff series. Fox 13 Memphis chief

00:46:20.360 meteorologist Joey Solopek, who is white, tweeted the following after game three. Get ready for this.

00:46:27.900 Chew on this. Draymond runs his knuckle-dragging open mouth all game long, but mild-mannered

00:46:34.120 Kyle Anderson disputes one call and gets ejected. Next level jackassery.

00:46:40.880 And then it says, Solopek reportedly deleted the tweet after phasing backlash and he later deleted

00:46:44.600 his entire Twitter account. So, that's it. Did you spot the racism? Probably not, seeing as how he

00:46:50.940 didn't say anything even remotely racially charged. He used the term knuckle-dragging to describe Green.

00:46:57.020 That's a common expression, a kind of cliched insult often applied to people of all different races and 1.00

00:47:02.640 meant to imply that they are, as the Oxford Dictionary defines the term, a stupid or loutish 1.00

00:47:07.280 person. The dictionary makes no mention of any racial connotation, much less does it say that the 0.99

00:47:12.120 term is a racial slur. In fact, it has never in my life even occurred to me to interpret knuckle-dragger

00:47:19.140 in a racist way. And it's still not immediately clear to me why it would be racist, aside from the

00:47:24.200 simple fact that it's an insult and we live in a culture so incredibly stupid that literally any 1.00

00:47:28.480 insult of a black person is immediately assumed to be racist. But is there more behind it than that? 0.99

00:47:33.380 Here's an article on the sports news site marka.com and it provides this explanation. This is what they

00:47:38.080 say. The term knuckle-dragger has long been used by bigots to describe an angry black man. It is meant 0.96

00:47:45.600 to compare them to a large and enraged ape such as a gorilla. Wait, what? Since when has knuckle-dragger

00:47:53.800 meant that? I have literally not once in my entire life ever heard anyone use it in that context.

00:48:01.980 In fact, as is so often the case in these kinds of situations, you would have to be extremely racist

00:48:07.380 to actually see the term as racist. If you hear knuckle-dragger and immediately think, oh, he must

00:48:13.240 be saying that black people are apes, then it's you who harbors deeply racist thoughts and ideas 0.99

00:48:18.220 within yourself. That's what's known as projecting. Ironically, we see again how the alleged racist 0.99

00:48:25.300 villain is actually being penalized for not being racist. The weatherman is so not racist that it

00:48:32.000 never so much has crossed his mind to interpret the term in a racist way. He insulted Draymond Green

00:48:36.920 the same way that he would insult anybody else. He treated Draymond Green as equal. He didn't take his

00:48:43.900 race into consideration one way or another, and for that, his entire career and his life will be

00:48:48.380 destroyed. And on that note, his employer released a statement shortly after the non-racist racist tweet

00:48:53.400 went viral, saying, during Saturday's Memphis Grizzlies game, meteorologist Joey Celepek tweeted

00:48:58.820 a comment that does not reflect the values of Fox 13. We take this matter very seriously and we'll take

00:49:03.980 appropriate action pending a full investigation. Translation, he's gone and he'll never work in the

00:49:10.380 industry ever again. Powerful people in the NBA have already set out to make sure of that part of

00:49:16.060 it. Green's coach, the leftist goober Steve Kerr, actually addressed the tweet during his post-game

00:49:20.640 press conference, and here's what he said. Does it surprise me that a weatherman would tweet a slur

00:49:25.800 at Draymond in 2022? Not in the slightest bit. This is America. This is how we operate.

00:49:33.840 A slur. So we're going with that now. So we're going to call it the K-word? Are we going to get

00:49:42.780 bleeped out if you say knuckle-dragger now? And Kerr, once again, bravely speaking out about the

00:49:48.140 important issues of our time, such as a weatherman's tweet. Steve Kerr, he loves to give his opinion and

00:49:54.160 run his knuckle-dragging mouth about many subjects. That is, unless you ask him about the NBA's

00:49:58.460 relationship with China. That's when he suddenly gets very shy. He'll bravely denounce a weatherman

00:50:03.260 in Memphis, but as for the communist government of China, which his company is in business with,

00:50:07.760 he has much less to say. Nothing at all to say, in fact. Now, be that as it may, Kerr is right,

00:50:12.880 actually. He says that this is what America is and this is what we do here. And he's correct

00:50:18.540 that this is what we do here. At least it's what he does here, along with his leftist compatriots

00:50:23.620 and the media. What they do is entertain themselves and advertise their own faux virtue

00:50:29.740 and exercise their cultural power by destroying the lives of random hapless patsies like this 0.99

00:50:35.200 weatherman. Much like they did with the OK sign, they've now simply invented a racial slur out of

00:50:41.940 whole cloth. They've decided arbitrarily that knuckle-dragger is racist. Anybody who uses it in

00:50:47.320 the future or who used it in the past, because these rules could be enforced retroactively, of course,

00:50:51.040 must face the consequences. Your intent doesn't matter. They will determine your intent.

00:50:57.620 They will decide why you said what you said. They get to assign motivation and meaning to your

00:51:04.840 statements after the fact. There's actually any discussion about it. They will tell you what you

00:51:10.560 meant and you will accept it. At least if you're foolish and self-destructive, you'll accept it. 0.99

00:51:16.160 And as far as that goes, Solopek is trying to kind of have his cake and eat it too, as far as the 0.99

00:51:21.620 apologies go. This is a common mistake that people in this situation make. Before deleting his social

00:51:26.900 media, he issued a statement that attempts to defend himself against the racism charge

00:51:30.840 while still apologizing for it. So he tweeted,

00:51:34.440 Well, of course there was no ill intent. Obviously, you didn't mean it in a racist way. We know you

00:51:49.640 didn't mean it that way because the term is, in fact, not a racial slur. We also know you didn't

00:51:53.600 mean it that way because even if you were a raging racist, you wouldn't set your life and career on

00:51:59.040 fire by advertising the fact on Twitter. Well, that's another thing that's always left out of

00:52:05.400 these conversations of, you know, someone says something and, oh, it was racist. Like in this

00:52:10.760 fantasy world where this guy's racist, why would he say that? So you're saying he's not only racist,

00:52:16.420 but he's psychotic on top of it. Because in order to be a person anywhere, but especially a public 0.68

00:52:25.620 figure with any kind of platform and to say something intentionally racist, that is racist 0.83

00:52:31.260 against black people as a white person. Of course, we know if you're saying racist things about white

00:52:34.820 people that you can totally get away with it. But to do it the other way, you would not only have to

00:52:39.640 be racist, but you would also have to be a psycho. You would have to be a lunatic setting your whole 1.00

00:52:44.640 life on fire for no personal benefit. So we all know that's not what happened here. Everyone who's 0.97

00:52:51.920 pretending to be offended knows that. The people in the media writing all of these headlines, defaming

00:52:57.360 him, they all know this. Steve Kerr knows it. Nobody's hurt. Nobody's offended. And even if they

00:53:05.700 are offended, who cares? Joey, you didn't do anything wrong. There's nothing to apologize for.

00:53:10.820 By apologizing, you admit guilt, even while in the next breath denying guilt. You have to pick a lane.

00:53:15.880 And the lane you pick should be the one where you punch the cry bullies in the mouth and tell them to 0.99

00:53:20.240 get lost. So here's a statement you should have issued, Joey. You should have said, 0.98

00:53:24.900 I call Draymond Green a knuckle dragger because I wanted to imply that he's stupid and obnoxious, 1.00

00:53:29.840 which he is. The same could be said about the outraged mob lying about me and calling me racist. 1.00

00:53:34.640 I do not believe that any of you drama queens and phonies are actually offended. And whether you are

00:53:39.780 or aren't, I do not apologize. God bless. That's the correct response. In fact, Draymond Green himself,

00:53:47.120 interestingly, reacted to the apology on Instagram after the game by saying,

00:53:51.780 don't apologize, stand on it. Now, in context, he didn't mean this as actual encouragement or advice.

00:53:58.300 His real point was simply to amplify the story so as to further ruin Solopec's life. But however

00:54:03.960 insincere his advice was, it was also solid. He's right. Don't apologize. Stand on it.

00:54:09.820 Never bow to the knuckle draggers and the cancel mob. Let them know that it is not you, but rather 0.96

00:54:17.980 they who are finally canceled. And we'll leave it there for today. Thanks for watching. Thanks
