Today on the Matt Wall Show, British police are now carting people away in handcuffs for the crime
00:00:04.700
of causing trans people to feel anxiety. If you think this madness isn't coming to the United
00:00:09.800
States, you've got another thing coming. Also, Ron DeSantis proves yet again why he's the most
00:00:13.900
effective Republican leader in the country. He's got a couple new moves that are really great we'll
00:00:18.420
talk about. And a drag queen performed for kids at a church in New York, but the story only gets
00:00:23.480
worse from there somehow. And our Daily Cancellation, the saga of racist parade mascots,
00:00:28.300
continues. We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

The Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe is a huge, albeit long overdue, step in the right
00:00:46.480
direction, but there's still a long way to go to rid our country of abortion completely. Many
00:00:51.220
companies are bowing to the woke mob by donating to pro-choice causes and candidates are reimbursing
00:00:56.160
their employees' travel expenses so that if they live and work in a pro-life state, they can travel
00:01:00.900
to a pro-abortion state and get an abortion and then be back at work on Monday. Well, what if I
00:01:06.340
told you that you're currently on a phone plan with one of the major carriers? If you are, you might be
00:01:10.400
supporting these kind of companies and their pro-abortion agenda with your monthly phone bill.
00:01:15.080
You might be inadvertently, indirectly paying for people to take vacations and get abortions.
00:01:19.980
Don't let abortionists use your money to fund policies you don't believe and switch to
00:01:23.720
Charity Mobile instead. Charity Mobile is a pro-life, pro-family cell phone company that sends
00:01:27.200
5% of your monthly plan price to the pro-life charity of your choice. You don't have to compromise
00:01:31.600
on values or good phone service. Charity Mobile offers the latest 5G phones, no device or service
00:01:36.360
contracts, great nationwide coverage, and live customer service base right here in the USA.
00:01:40.520
The fight for the right to life continues and pro-life causes need your support. You can help by
00:01:44.580
simply switching your phone service to Charity Mobile today. Call 1-877-474-3662 or chat with them
00:01:50.460

In many ways, it would seem that Western Europe, along with Canada and probably Australia,
00:02:04.220
are seated farther up on the crazy train. And, you know, that's probably true. But the important
00:02:08.640
point is that we're all on the same train, headed over the same precipice and down into the same dark
00:02:14.520
depths. To peer then over our northern border or across the ocean, it's to look at our immediate
00:02:21.220
future. It's like looking into a crystal ball. And that's why this story, which hasn't gotten very
00:02:25.920
much attention in this country, ought to get some attention, ought to give us pause. The Daily Mail
00:02:30.580
reported this week, they report, an army veteran was arrested by police for causing anxiety after
00:02:37.380
retweeting a picture of a swastika made out of pride flags on social media. Darren Brady, 51,
00:02:43.380
has slammed Hampshire police for impeding his right to free speech after he's placed in handcuffs on
00:02:48.240
Friday at his home in Aldershot for sharing a meme. Footage of the arrest was widely shared on social
00:02:53.540
media and showed an officer who told Mr. Brady he was being apprehended because his post had caused
00:02:59.080
anxiety and been reported to authorities. The image Mr. Brady retweeted was of a swastika that had been
00:03:05.240
digitally manipulated and was made out of four LGBT pride flags. Well, clearly the best way to
00:03:11.760
disprove the point he was making with the swastika meme is to arrest him for posting it.
00:03:17.720
Certainly not as, it's not as though such a response exactly demonstrates the very thing the
00:03:22.440
meme was commenting on. But I think you need to hear, you heard the reason there about anxiety,
00:03:26.840
but you need to hear it for yourself. The British police officer explaining this as he's making the
00:03:35.340
Hampshire police would realise how ridiculous this is.
00:03:44.660
Tell us why you isolated it to this level, because I don't understand. I posted something that he posted,
00:03:50.280
you come to arrest me, you don't arrest him. Why has it come to this? Why am I in cuffs? Because
00:03:54.260
it's something he shared, then I shared. Because someone has been caused, obviously, anxiety based
00:04:00.460
upon your social media post. That's why you've been arrested. Someone has been caused anxiety by your
00:04:08.680
social media post. You're in handcuffs and will be carted to jail because your meme made somebody
00:04:14.680
anxious. My favourite thing is the tone the officer uses. He says, well, obviously someone has been
00:04:20.400
caused anxiety. It's obvious. Of course he's going to arrest you for creating anxiety in the precious,
00:04:26.360
fragile mind of some gender non-conforming person. Obviously. What else is he going to do?
00:04:33.100
What to the sane among us seems utterly insane and totally beyond the bounds of reason is to him
00:04:39.340
self-evident and uncontroversial. Well, this is no surprise coming from a British police officer. After
00:04:45.480
all, these are the people just recently, a few weeks ago, caught on film in uniform dancing at a
00:04:51.260
gay pride rally. Let's see that. That's some real police work there. I suppose we have no room to
00:05:14.020
laugh over here in the States. We've seen cops in this country kneel in submission at BLM rallies. So
00:05:20.420
basically the same sort of thing. And we especially cannot laugh because we are fast approaching the
00:05:25.400
day when a meme critical of the trans agenda will result in more than just a Twitter suspension.
00:05:32.480
Soon we're going to see people getting carted away in handcuffs too. And it will happen. It's going to
00:05:38.120
happen and soon. And that move will begin, if Biden has anything to say about it, on college campuses
00:05:44.160
with this administration's proposed changes to Title IX. Like we talked about when the proposal was first
00:05:48.780
published a little while ago, Biden wants to change Title IX, not only to give men the unquestioned right
00:05:56.200
to access any female facility or sports team anywhere they want without impediment, but also to make it a
00:06:01.860
legal violation, as the British police officer says, to cause anxiety to a protected class of people.
00:06:08.300
There was a lawyer named Cece O'Leary who recently explained the changes at a Heritage Foundation event.
00:06:13.940
And she explained that under the current Title IX guidelines, a student or staff member at a
00:06:21.500
university could be considered in violation if they engage in harassment, a verbal harassment that
00:06:29.000
is severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive. That's the current rule as it stands. Now,
00:06:37.080
there are obviously problems even with the rule as it stands, potential problems,
00:06:40.880
but it does create a relatively high bar. If you want to get someone kicked off campus for harassing
00:06:46.680
you, you have to prove that what they're saying was offensive and pervasive and severe, all three
00:06:53.900
of those things. Which means that you can't hear something that somebody says that offends you one
00:06:59.980
time and then get the person kicked out of school. You have to prove that you were harassed in a way that
00:07:05.800
was severe and pervasive and personal towards you. But as O'Leary explains, Biden wants to change the
00:07:12.500
and to an or. So it's not severe and pervasive, it's severe or pervasive. And that will have
00:07:22.080
absolutely devastating effects for free speech on campus, obviously by design. Let's listen to her
00:07:26.900
explaining. A speech that would be severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive would be a man calling
00:07:35.600
a woman a derogatory name. He says it, and we all agree that it's a bad name. He says it over and over
00:07:42.620
again, and it causes her to maybe fear for her physical safety. Maybe he's shouting it at her as
00:07:48.380
he's running after her. That would be harassment. Or maybe he's saying it over and over and over again
00:07:53.140
in class to the point where she does not feel safe going to class anymore. That would be harassment
00:07:58.260
under the current rule. Under the proposed change to the rule, it would just be saying a comment about
00:08:04.800
it would be misgendering somebody. It would be saying the wrong pronoun that that person does not identify
00:08:11.380
with. Under the new rule, that person could find that comment severe, period. And they could report you
00:08:18.340
and the college could find you guilty of harassment. So under this new proposed change to Title IX,
00:08:27.080
we are worried that students are going to have their speech chilled even more than it already is.
00:08:32.400
Students are going to be deterred from ever speaking up and saying anything because they risk,
00:08:38.140
especially conservative students, will risk their views being targeted and being punished now on their
00:08:44.620
campus. So, you know, a concrete example of this could be you want to host a conservative speaker.
00:08:51.200
Let's say you want to have Matt Walsh come onto campus and debate somebody. Under these new changes to
00:08:56.300
Title IX, you might not be able to do that because Matt Walsh could be labeled a harassing figure and this is
00:09:02.920
harassing speech and therefore the college will not allow him to come onto campus. So there are definitely some
00:09:09.680
serious concerns here with this Title IX change and there are other concerns as well that I'm sure
00:09:15.100
my co-panelists can speak to. Well, of course, you want to keep that unsavored character off your
00:09:20.200
campus. But generally, the groundwork is already laid here. The foundation has long since been
00:09:26.340
excavated. Now, all the tyrants have to do is start building on the work they've already done.
00:09:31.260
To say something that somebody in a privileged class doesn't like to make them uncomfortable,
00:09:35.840
whether intentionally or not, is to commit harassment. And harassment is a violation on
00:09:41.760
college campuses. Harassment is a crime, actually. Criminals get arrested. So you see how the dots
00:09:46.780
connect. It's not very hard to see. But in fact, the foundations for this kind of words are violence
00:09:51.960
idea, the foundation goes further back and is deeper than most people realize. If you have heeded my
00:09:58.400
many recommendations to read Carl Truman's book, The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, then you'll know
00:10:03.780
that this is all the consequence of what other philosophers have dubbed living in the age of
00:10:11.660
the psychological man or the expressive individual. Now, for most of human history, as Truman talks
00:10:17.780
about in his book, human beings found meaning and purpose through external realities. Happiness and
00:10:25.380
fulfillment could be found in the ways that we are situated within stable structures like the family,
00:10:31.140
the community, the church, your country. Individuals define themselves by these relationships and these
00:10:38.680
roles. If you had gone to a person at any point before modern times and asked them to tell you about
00:10:45.380
themselves, they would have immediately started talking about the roles that they play. They would
00:10:50.440
have identified, I'm a father, I do this for a living. That's how they would have identified
00:10:55.860
themselves. They probably would have listing their faith probably first and foremost. But that's all
00:11:01.420
changed in the modern age. Now, individuals are encouraged to find meaning inside themselves. As
00:11:07.680
Truman wrote in an essay on this subject a couple years ago, this is the notion that human flourishing
00:11:13.640
is found primarily in an inner sense of well-being, that authenticity is found by being able to act
00:11:19.280
outwardly as one feels inwardly, and that who we are is largely a matter of personal choice,
00:11:24.880
not external imposition. And of course, I would add that the rejection of external imposition includes
00:11:32.100
biology and nature, because we're now meant to believe that even nature, even God, cannot impose
00:11:39.780
on us any definition of our true selves. Nobody decides who or what we are. Nobody and nothing. It's totally
00:11:48.460
up to us. This is entirely determined by our own egos, and our ego is where we live. We are
00:11:54.540
absorbed within it, barely coming up for air. This shift in the way that human beings see themselves,
00:12:02.040
this transformation or degradation, as the case may be, in the very definition of selfhood,
00:12:08.160
is what explains nearly everything that we're seeing happen around us. And it's what has led,
00:12:15.480
and will continue to lead, to the forcible suppression of many kinds of speech, especially speech that
00:12:21.680
causes someone to question their inner experience of their own selfhood, right? Speech that causes,
00:12:27.920
as the police officer said, anxiety. Since your inner self is all that matters, since it's the truest
00:12:34.180
version of yourself, then speech which interferes with it becomes a form of violence. It's murder,
00:12:40.960
in effect. And that's why the enemies of free speech can stamp out free speech wherever they find it,
00:12:46.780
while claiming and actually believing that they cherish free speech. They could be on this crusade
00:12:54.200
to utterly destroy free speech, while telling themselves and everybody else, and being deluded
00:13:01.020
enough to actually believe that they cherish the very thing that they're destroying. Because in their
00:13:05.620
minds, what they're attacking isn't speech, you know, it's violence, it's assault, it's murder.
00:13:10.820
Maybe not physically, but internally. And as we've seen, the internal is all that matters.
00:13:21.200
And that's what's happening. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:13:31.080
It's been a big year for healthcare data breaches. A recent breach at a debt collection firm exposed data
00:13:35.980
from 1.9 million patients tied to 657 healthcare providers. That's a huge number of people affected,
00:13:43.400
but as crazy as it sounds, that's only the third largest healthcare breach reported this year. The other
00:13:48.420
two impacted 2.8 million people and 2 million patients, respectively. It's important to understand how
00:13:54.360
cyber crime and identity theft are affecting our lives every day. Your personal information gets exposed so
00:13:58.820
often that it's dangerously easy for a cyber criminal to steal your identity. Protecting your identity, then,

00:14:38.480
All right, I have to tell you about this because it's been weighing on my mind. Before we get to
00:14:41.820
the five headlines, if you'll bear with me, I've just, I've been struggling with it and I've been,
00:14:47.800
I've hesitated to talk about it because I don't want to throw my employer under the bus,
00:14:55.060
but I have to get this off my chest come what may. So this is something that I just found out about
00:15:00.460
recently when my producer Sean told me about it. Apparently, back when Johnny the Walrus first came
00:15:07.880
out, somebody here at the Daily Wire got the idea that they should celebrate the book and congratulate
00:15:14.160
me for the success of my book, which you can still buy at johnnythewalrus.com, by having a custom
00:15:19.720
stuffed walrus made. And then they would give it to me. And they wanted the stuffed walrus to be
00:15:26.360
like as big as a real walrus, like this massive thing, at least the size of a large beanbag chair.
00:15:32.420
And this plan was agreed upon and they decided they were going to surprise me with the stuffed
00:15:36.260
walrus because everyone knows I love surprises. And they're going to give it to me during a backstage
00:15:40.820
episode. So they had this huge stuffed walrus made, custom made, who knows how much it cost it.
00:15:46.680
And they had it shipped to the office. They carted it in. It was like a surprise, unbeknownst to me,
00:15:51.560
I didn't know about any of this. Everything was in order. Everything was paid for and received.
00:15:55.720
And then they just never gave me the walrus. For whatever reason, the enormous stuffed walrus was
00:16:03.280
never actually given to me. The whole plan was executed, every part of it, except for the part where
00:16:10.580
I was actually given the gift. And so that's why now today there is in our office, like in storage
00:16:17.160
somewhere, this huge stuffed walrus that no one knows what to do with. It's just sitting there.
00:16:22.480
And what makes this so bizarre, again, is not that they decided to bail on the plan of giving me a huge
00:16:27.180
stuffed walrus. That would be understandable. It's that they made it and had it shipped and then never
00:16:33.240
never gave it to me. So Sean told me about this. And of course, my question was, well, can I have it?
00:16:40.680
Can I have my walrus? And he said, do you want it? And I said, yeah, of course I want it. What do you
00:16:45.940
mean? It's my walrus. It was made for me. I want the big stuffed walrus. And it was still never given
00:16:50.780
to me. And then yesterday where I'm in my office with McKenna and Sean, I bring it up again. I said,
00:16:55.000
can I have my stuffed walrus? I would like to have it. And again, the question was, well,
00:17:01.120
do you really want it? Yes, I want the walrus. And so yesterday I go looking for the walrus. I can't
00:17:07.220
find it anywhere. And now I'm starting to think, did they re-gift it? Was this giant stuffed walrus
00:17:13.500
given to somebody else? So it's a really, it's an awkward situation where this gift was never given
00:17:19.800
to me and now I'm asking for it and they still won't give it to me. It's really bizarre. Why can't I
00:17:25.640
have my walrus is my question? This walrus, it's like the equivalent of, it's the, it's the walrus
00:17:32.220
equivalent of the bridge to nowhere. It's like a, this, this bureaucratic boondoggle, this random
00:17:38.360
expensive thing that was, that was never used for anything. And I just don't know what to do. So
00:17:44.280
that's it. Hashtag give Matt his walrus. We will go here, maybe something slightly more important
00:17:52.640
than the saga of the stuffed walrus is this. And this was kind of teased yesterday that from Ron
00:17:59.960
DeSantis' camp down in Florida, that they were going to be making a big announcement.
00:18:03.360
And then they made it today. And this is from, actually there are a couple of big announcements.
00:18:07.520
We'll go with what happened today. This is Fox News. It says, Republican Florida Governor Ron
00:18:12.840
DeSantis suspended liberal state attorney Andrew Warren on Thursday. DeSantis made the announcement
00:18:18.540
during a Thursday press conference broadcast on social media. DeSantis argued that Warren has
00:18:23.740
repeatedly refused to enforce laws passed by the legislature, cracking down on child sex change
00:18:30.400
surgeries and abortion restrictions. DeSantis' office has said in a statement, we are suspending Soros-backed
00:18:35.700
13th Circuit state attorney Andrew Warren for neglecting his duties as he pledges not to uphold the laws of
00:18:41.020
the state. The Constitution of Florida has, this is DeSantis now quoting, the Constitution of Florida has
00:18:45.760
vested the veto power in the governor, not in the state attorneys. We are not going to allow this
00:18:49.740
pathogen of ignoring the law to get a foothold in the state of Florida. Officials said Warren has
00:18:55.060
repeatedly tried to install himself as an adjudicator of what laws will and will not be allowed.
00:19:00.800
And so now they're saying that they're going to simply suspend him. Now, this is a big announcement,
00:19:07.580
a big and significant announcement. It shouldn't be, right? I mean, this shouldn't even be news
00:19:14.460
at all. We should see this and say, oh, well, right. So again, a Republican governor is suspending
00:19:22.180
a DA who refuses to enforce the law. Because this is the kind of thing that we should have seen many
00:19:26.300
examples of this already. Because there are a great many district attorneys all throughout the country
00:19:36.600
who have just decided on their own that, no, I don't like that law, so I'm going to pretend it
00:19:42.340
doesn't exist. I'm going to rewrite the law for myself and determine which laws will be enforced
00:19:48.120
and which won't be enforced. And these DAs have made this, and again, most of them, yes, funded and
00:19:55.180
installed by George Soros. And they've made this decision, and oftentimes they're in blue states
00:20:00.440
where there's no one who could even hold them accountable who has a position of power. But then
00:20:04.780
oftentimes also they're in red states. And the red state governors just sit there, sitting on their
00:20:11.020
hands like they can't do anything about it. They're totally powerless. What DeSantis is doing here is,
00:20:16.800
of course, exactly the right thing to do. If you're not going to do your job, then you're done.
00:20:23.320
You don't get to decide what laws are enforced. I don't care if you don't like the law.
00:20:28.320
Okay, as a district attorney in a city, the city is not your own little fiefdom where you can make up
00:20:34.640
the rules for yourself. If you don't like the rules, if you don't like the laws and don't want to
00:20:38.900
enforce them, then step down and let someone else step in who will do his job. This is your duty.
00:20:45.040
This is your responsibility. But what makes this sort of significant and even somewhat shocking in
00:20:53.940
a way is, again, that Republicans never do this kind of thing. This is one of the most consistent
00:21:02.100
things about Republicans is that, of course, they are usually useless and they do not want to use
00:21:08.300
the power that they've been given. And that goes to Republicans who are governors of states. That goes
00:21:14.800
to Republicans on the federal level, in Congress. And that also applies to many Republican presidents
00:21:23.060
that we've had, including the most recent Republican president, who was very reluctant to use the power
00:21:29.320
that had been given to him by the nature of his office. And you could kind of see why Republicans
00:21:37.940
would be afraid and don't want to use the power that they're given. A couple of reasons. One is that
00:21:43.220
if you use the power that you've been given, that you're putting yourself in line for lots of criticism
00:21:47.280
from the left and from the media. And the piranhas are going to swarm around you and try to eat you
00:21:53.520
alive, right? So they're trying to avoid that because they're cowards. But then the other thing too is that
00:21:58.120
you know, when you have power and you use it, now you're putting yourself, you're going out on a limb
00:22:06.660
because if things don't, if things go wrong, if things go badly, now you could be held accountable
00:22:13.900
for that. So it's a lot safer to be given power and then never use it. Just kind of coast along.
00:22:22.500
Enjoying the prestige of your office, enjoying all the different perks that come with it,
00:22:28.800
but never actually using your power. Because if you never do anything, then no one can
00:22:34.220
criticize you for the things you did because you didn't do anything.
00:22:40.100
I think the real courage that we see with DeSantis, I mean, even aside from facing down the radical left
00:22:44.960
and everything else, the real courage is being willing to do things, to do what he's supposed to
00:22:51.200
do in his position and live with the consequences. If it doesn't go right, then that's on him and he
00:23:02.000
knows that and he's willing to do that, to accept that. I mean, this is just, I know you've heard me
00:23:10.780
say it so many times, but it's such an obvious choice and he hasn't announced yet his run for
00:23:17.820
president in 2024, but I think he will announce. I think he's all the more likely to announce if
00:23:25.520
the people, especially Republican and conservative voters speak up and say, we want you to run,
00:23:32.940
please run, you're the guy. I think he'll definitely run in that case. I think the only
00:23:38.380
thing that would stop DeSantis from running is if he looks at the situation and decides
00:23:42.060
that there's a lot more enthusiasm among Republicans for Trump. And so he doesn't
00:23:47.500
want to get in there and get into a nasty battle with Trump. And so he's going to sit it out.
00:23:52.320
And so I think it's really important for all of us, those who have platforms and we all have
00:23:57.960
platforms these days, no matter how big or small your platform is, if you're a Republican,
00:24:02.900
if you're a conservative to say, no, he's the guy, please run. I think you're the guy.
00:24:08.380
And there's just, there are some other Republicans out there that could, that I hope also run because
00:24:14.580
I, you know, I don't want an uncontested primary, right? You want to, and it's a iron sharpens iron
00:24:19.700
and that kind of thing. And there are some other interesting options, but when you have someone
00:24:25.300
who's a young guy, governed successfully, isn't afraid of the left, isn't afraid to use the power
00:24:31.740
that he's been given, checks every single box. So it's could not be more obvious.
00:24:37.380
And speaking of checking the boxes, that was yesterday. Now let's go back to, or rather,
00:24:41.920
this was this morning. Let's go back to yesterday when Ron DeSantis announced that there's going to
00:24:47.480
be accountability in his state now for doctors who mutilate children. Listen.
00:24:52.660
Talk about these very young kids getting gender affirming care. They don't tell you what that is,
00:24:58.940
is they're actually giving very young girls double mastectomies. They want to castrate these young
00:25:04.180
boys. That's wrong. And so we've stood up and said, both from the health and children wellbeing
00:25:09.860
perspective, you know, you don't disfigure 10, 12, 13 year old kids, uh, based on gender dysphoria,
00:25:18.240
80% of it resolves anyways, by the time they get older. So why would you be doing this? I think these
00:25:23.320
doctors need to get sued for what's happening. I'm sorry. Uh, they need to be sued. Yes, absolutely.
00:25:32.300
And we are going to see, uh, the lawsuits that are going to be the class action lawsuits that we're
00:25:37.280
going to see certainly in the next 10 years as all these children, children who are being drugged
00:25:43.580
and castrated and mutilated as they, uh, get older and become adults and experience
00:25:48.880
unimaginable regret. And I almost hesitate. I don't even like the word regret here because regret is
00:25:58.320
when you, uh, are, are feeling sorry about something that you did, right? That's, that's what regret is
00:26:05.780
when you're feeling some kind of guilt or second guessing something that you have done,
00:26:10.420
a choice that you have made. But with these children who are being drugged and castrated
00:26:15.540
and everything else, this is not a choice that they're making because they can't make these
00:26:18.300
kinds of choices. This is something that's being done to them. So call it whatever you want it,
00:26:23.240
but as they get in the next 10 years, as, as this current, um, crop of children and crop is certainly
00:26:30.500
how they're seen by the, uh, pharmaceutical industry and by all these doctors that are taking
00:26:35.760
advantage of them and profiting off of, uh, off of abusing them as they get older, become adults.
00:26:43.640
We're going to see massive class action lawsuits
00:26:45.820
as, as well we should. But the really tragic thing is that on top of class action lawsuits,
00:26:52.840
we're going to see, uh, a wave of mass suicide, unlike anything that the world has ever seen.
00:27:01.100
And we're already seeing suicide rates that are far above historical average, historical norms,
00:27:08.840
especially for younger people. But I'm telling you right now in the next 10 to 15 years, what we're
00:27:14.380
going to see is just, it's unthinkable because you're going to have millions of what were once
00:27:21.160
kids coming into adulthood and looking and realizing that their lives have been destroyed.
00:27:27.480
Their bodies have been destroyed. They've had things taken from them. They can never,
00:27:30.840
ever get back. And it's just, it's impossible to even conceptualize the anguish and pain that
00:27:42.060
someone must feel in that situation. And what happens from there is going to be utterly tragic
00:27:47.620
and brutal, which is why we should be doing everything we can right now, pulling every lever that
00:27:53.920
we can, um, calling on every Republican with any power at all, to be doing, to be doing everything
00:28:01.400
they can to put a stop to this and to punish to the full extent possible under the law, everyone
00:28:07.440
responsible for it. That to me, it should be, you want to talk about 2024 of any election, really
00:28:16.200
primaries, uh, any election. It should be one of our first questions for any Republican. It's like,
00:28:25.200
first of all, how do you feel about children getting gender reassignment care, quote unquote.
00:28:34.220
And if they say anything other to that, other than it's horrifying and evil and terrible, anything
00:28:41.340
less than that, we can't even consider them. But then the next question is, what do you, what do you,
00:28:46.920
what do you want to do about it? The doctors who are responsible for this, if it was in your power to
00:28:52.460
do it, would you put them in prison? Are you in favor of passing laws that allows us to take these
00:28:58.520
doctors and put them in prison? Any answer from a Republican other than, hell yes, let's imprison
00:29:06.340
these bastards, uh, then that person can't be considered for any elected position at all.
00:29:13.280
Speaking of, uh, puberty blockers, the Daily Wire, I've had this on the docket here for a few days,
00:29:18.020
Daily Wire had this report, I think this was last week, um, says puberty blockers known as, uh,
00:29:23.900
gonadropin-releasing hormones, uh, receive it, received a warning from the U.S. Food and Drug
00:29:29.220
Administration officials earlier this month, saying the drug could cause brain swelling,
00:29:33.160
loss of vision, and serious risks for children injecting the hormone. Officials said a plausible
00:29:38.300
association between using puberty blocker, um, and, uh, puberty blockers and other symptoms which
00:29:45.740
display, there's, there's one disease in particular that I can't, it's pseudotumor cerebri, I think,
00:29:50.960
which displays symptoms similar to a brain tumor. This was either, so they said there's an association
00:29:55.600
potentially between that and the puberty blockers, and this has been identified in six young girls
00:30:00.920
between the ages of five and 12. FDA officials reported five were undergoing treatment for
00:30:05.780
central precocious puberty and one for transgender care. The onset of this disease ranged from three to
00:30:14.140
240 days after, uh, the initiation of the puberty blockers. This is the other thing that we're going
00:30:21.240
to see in the coming years is, um, the FDA and other public health agencies are going to come out
00:30:29.940
with reports saying, oh, well, you know, it turns out that, uh, maybe these drugs do have some side
00:30:34.820
effects. And because we, we can't even, you, we can't begin to list all of the potential side effects
00:30:44.560
from drugs like this because we've never had, you know, an entire generation put on these drugs.
00:30:52.120
We haven't had the sample size. Now we do. And we're going to find out as the years go on.
00:30:57.260
All right. It's from business insider says president Joe Biden on Wednesday signed his second executive
00:31:02.600
order aimed at protecting abortion access. Since the Supreme court overturned Roe v. Wade in late
00:31:06.920
June, Biden's executive order instructs the human, uh, and health services department to support
00:31:12.020
patients who will travel out of state to get an abortion where it's still legal. This is according
00:31:16.240
to a white house fact sheet. Biden explains this executive order. Let's listen to him explain.
00:31:22.440
No, today I'm signing a second executive order. I'm about to sign that response to the healthcare
00:31:28.240
crisis that has unfolded since the Supreme court overturned Roe and that women are facing all
00:31:34.680
across America. Healthcare crisis is, you know, it's just, it's hard for me to even understand how
00:31:43.220
they think this. Healthcare crisis is women can't get, can't choose, can't get an abortion even in the
00:31:50.000
case of incest, even in the case of rape. But it goes beyond that. There are a lot of women who take
00:31:57.340
prescriptions prescribed by their doctors and were taking for some time for other conditions
00:32:01.600
for arthritis, for epilepsy, for Crohn's disease. And in many cases, these prescriptions are not being
00:32:08.820
filled. Uh, well, that's just a, that of course is a total lie. There's nothing about the overturn of
00:32:15.360
Roe v. Wade that would prevent women from taking medication for arthritis. But this is the advantage,
00:32:24.400
of course, being a Democrat, you can just, you can utterly, totally invent things out of thin air
00:32:28.920
and you're not going to be fact-checked on that, especially when it's something, if it's, if it's
00:32:33.100
in the realm of abortion, then they're, they're not going to fact-check it. You can, as far as they're
00:32:37.360
concerned, ends justify the means and just say whatever you need to say to bring about the end
00:32:43.000
that you want. And the end that you want, of course, is the murder of more babies, which is healthcare.
00:32:46.580
Healthcare. But like we talked about with euthanasia yesterday, that, that can never be
00:32:52.440
healthcare. This can never be medicine. If you have a doctor who is intentionally destroying human
00:32:59.420
life, then that is always and forever going to be the opposite of medicine.
00:33:06.860
You can call it whatever else you want, but you cannot call it medicine. You can't call it healthcare.
00:33:10.860
And what you should be calling it obviously is murder. Here's a, a, a video that's kind of been
00:33:18.660
making the rounds online for the last couple of days. And it's actually from, I think one or two
00:33:22.840
years ago, but still somewhat instructive. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared on one of these drag queen
00:33:31.920
shows. Maybe this is RuPaul's show. I don't know. She appeared with some drag queens to give them a
00:33:37.240
little pep talk and let's listen to her. People who change what people think are artists and drag
00:33:46.360
queens. And let's not forget who threw that first break at Stonewall. You know, that is what led to
00:33:54.620
us passing the Equality Act in the house in this term, marriage equality. It starts with you. I mean,
00:34:02.620
you're patriots. You are. You are. You are. You are patriots. And I'm so proud of you all. I'm so proud
00:34:12.740
to live in this country with you and with your mother and with all of us as family.
00:34:22.360
There we go. There was her patriotic speech, her war cry. That was her general patent moment to the drag queens.
00:34:29.920
The fact that she calls them patriots is significant. And we heard something similar
00:34:35.180
from Nancy Pelosi, who also appeared on one of these drag shows, and said almost exactly the same
00:34:39.900
kind of thing about how this is, you know, she makes the drag queens, men dressed like women,
00:34:45.380
make her proud to be an American. And this is the most American thing. And it's patriotic.
00:34:51.180
Why is it? Why is it patriotic? I mean, how could it be patriotic for men to dress up like
00:34:56.320
women? Well, they're not dressing like women, because that's, I think we have to be careful
00:35:01.960
when we say that, because I've never ever seen in my life a woman who dresses anything like a drag
00:35:07.200
queen. Now, they're dressing like a cartoon, a mockery of a woman. How could it be patriotic?
00:35:12.820
Well, the answer is, relating back to something we talked about a few days ago,
00:35:18.100
that, remember, on the left, the only right that they care about, the only right that they
00:35:26.680
recognize, the only right that exists in their minds is the right to sexual satisfaction,
00:35:34.340
sexual gratification. You know, that is, so you are a champion. If you're a champion of sexual
00:35:42.200
satisfaction, then you are a champion of human rights, which makes you, being a country as
00:35:48.920
America is, founded on the notion of human rights, then you're a patriot. Which, of course, is true.
00:35:55.360
If you actually are a champion of actual human rights, then you're a patriot, yes. The problem
00:36:01.140
is that this human right doesn't really exist. It is another invention of the left.
00:36:06.280
Right. But that's the way they see it. It's the only right, it's actually the only right that
00:36:12.320
anybody has, is just to satisfy yourself sexually. And it's why they believe that, you know, they
00:36:20.660
could take away every other right, which they don't even recognize as existing, but they get the
00:36:25.060
right to, the right to free speech, the right to self-defense, certainly the right to freedom of
00:36:31.820
religion. Everything else, the due process, they take all that away. Because as long as they leave
00:36:38.960
for you the ability to satisfy your sexual whims, then that's all you should want, because that's
00:36:44.780
all it means to be a person as far as they're concerned. That's why drag queens are patriots,
00:36:51.040
because for the drag queen, the cross-dresser, traipsing around in women's clothes, this is their
00:36:58.180
fetish. They're acting out their fetishes in public, which is a deeply patriotic thing to do
00:37:04.160
in AOC's warped vision of the world. But the drag movement has, we know that it's made its way
00:37:11.360
certainly outside of Hollywood, and it's made its way into libraries and schools, and now it's made
00:37:16.700
its way even into churches. So here's another, some more viral footage making the rounds. A drag queen
00:37:23.460
recently appeared at, well, this is a church, so we'll play this for you. This is an event called
00:37:30.180
Worship is a Drag, and the drag queen here who comes out claimed that this was at a Catholic church,
00:37:37.600
but if you've ever been in a Catholic church and you see this footage, you can tell this is not a
00:37:41.680
Catholic church. It is a church, though, supposedly. And anyway, let's watch the footage first.
00:37:46.440
Her name is Britta Filter, and she is the queen of New York!
00:38:28.980
Okay, so there's the drag queen marching down the aisle of the church to the sounds of these screaming throngs applauding.
00:38:40.980
Okay, but you see that, and there are a few things about it that are a little bit confusing, right?
00:38:46.980
And the first thing, well, many things when you see a drag queen at a church.
00:38:49.980
Unfortunately, that actually is not the most confusing.
00:38:52.980
Sadly, these days, seeing the drag queen at a church is actually not confusing at all.
00:38:56.980
That's quite expected. I'm not even surprised now to see that.
00:38:59.980
The thing that did surprise me when I saw this footage was not the drag queen,
00:39:04.980
but it was the number of people in attendance and how young they are.
00:39:11.980
The fact that it's a whole bunch of young people.
00:39:14.980
Because what I know is that, generally, these far left churches that are trying to attract the young by, you know,
00:39:24.980
bringing drag queens in and, hey, let's have a transgender lesbian bishop and all that kind of stuff.
00:39:30.980
Preaching from the pulpit constantly about tolerance and acceptance and really preaching about this right to sexual satisfaction,
00:39:37.980
which is the only human right that they recognize either.
00:39:40.980
Those kinds of churches, though they are doing all this ostensibly to attract young people, they fail to do so.
00:39:48.980
But if you see footage usually like this and you look out and you see who's in the pews, it's geriatric.
00:39:53.980
It's like you're looking at something from the local nursing home.
00:39:58.980
There's a smattering of older middle-aged to elderly people in the pews and it's just because this is a dying old church.
00:40:08.980
And this method of trying to energize the young actually doesn't work.
00:40:16.980
Because for young people, first of all, young people are inherently attracted to authenticity.
00:40:25.980
And they can tell when someone's being inauthentic.
00:40:30.980
Like if you're being a poser and you're putting on a show, they can kind of sniff that out.
00:40:36.980
So the stereotypical like youth pastor who's 45, got the backwards hat, trying to use young lingo, but he's always about 10 years behind the times.
00:40:47.980
Usually once he gets a bunch of rolling eyes from the kids that he's talking to.
00:40:53.980
And also kids know that, okay, well, if I want drag queens and if I want transgenderism and if I want all this preaching about tolerance and diversity, I can go anywhere else in the culture for that.
00:41:07.980
And I can get a much more authentic version of it.
00:41:12.980
Why would I go and waste my time, they figure, sitting in a church to hear about drag queens and trans and everything else?
00:41:24.980
The churches have made themselves irrelevant by offering something that isn't needed in our culture because it's already supplied everywhere else.
00:41:35.980
Yet you watch that and it almost threw me for a loop.
00:41:39.980
I said, well, there are a lot of young people there.
00:41:42.980
Well, here's why there were so many young people there.
00:41:45.980
It says, students at Manhattan's Grace Church High School are required to attend chapel every other Wednesday on April 27th.
00:41:54.980
The sixth annual pride chapel featured a special guest, drag queen Britta Filter, a.k.a. Jessie Avea.
00:42:01.980
Students felt pressure to join in to dance and celebrate while teacher Ewan Gwynn took the opportunity to announce their resignation over improper pronoun usage.
00:42:12.980
There was tons of social pressure to dance along and pretend like it was normal, according to a student who asked not to be named, but said this to the postmillennial.
00:42:21.980
Whether it be people tapping on shoulders and telling them to stand up or just a collective staring contest at whoever wasn't totally participating.
00:42:29.980
The event was led by the school, also the reverend and the students and faculty advisors for Spectrum, which is the school's LGBTQIA plus affinity group.
00:42:38.980
The politically themed chapel, which was mandatory for all students in grades 9 through 12, apparently ran long.
00:42:44.980
According to multiple students, immediately upon entering, there was a person handing out stickers with pride flags on them, unironically saying, take one or you're homophobic.
00:42:55.980
And then eventually this teacher got up there and resigned because the pronouns weren't being respected.
00:43:06.980
My assumption that the uber-liberal far-left churches trying to attract young people only exceed attracting people in the 50-plus age bracket, that still stands.
00:43:18.980
Those kids were there because they were required to be there.
00:43:22.980
Mandatory attendance to watch the drag queen, the obese man in a dress, calling himself Brita Filter, dance down the aisles.
00:43:31.980
And not only that, but required to stand, applaud.
00:43:36.980
I mean, very much like what you see footage out of North Korea.
00:43:43.980
When Kim Jong-un is parading before the cheering throngs and everybody is, they're standing up and they're screaming and they're crying tears of joy.
00:43:55.980
They love Dear Leader so much, but what you don't see is just off camera, the guys with the guns pointed right out the screaming throngs saying, you better keep clapping or we're going to pull the trigger.
00:44:07.980
All right, finally, before we go to the comment section, the White House tweeted this yesterday.
00:44:13.980
And it's not so much the caption, but the picture that is significant here.
00:44:18.980
But this is President Biden tweeted, this morning I held a secure phone call with my national security team.
00:44:23.980
We discussed a wide range of priorities, including the United States support of free and open Indo-Pacific and our continued support for Ukraine in response to Putin's war.
00:44:34.980
What I do care about is the picture and it's Joe Biden on the phone with a mask.
00:44:40.980
He's wearing a mask while talking on the phone.
00:44:45.980
He wants to make sure that he doesn't transmit COVID over the phone.
00:44:50.980
Now, and he also wants to make sure he doesn't contract it again.
00:44:59.980
So maybe this extra precaution can be somewhat understandable.
00:45:02.980
But, and I see that and I'm tempted to make fun of it.
00:45:07.980
But then I realized, you know what, I'm actually fine with this.
00:45:18.980
Because that gives me an excuse to never answer the phone again and never return any phone call.
00:45:26.980
Of course, I never return phone calls anyway, but now I have an excuse because I don't want to get COVID.
00:45:35.980
If you're a man, it's required that you grow a beard.
00:45:51.980
And my husband worked on his degree over the years, debt free at his job.
00:45:57.980
He graduated with his master's degree after our fifth child in his 30s.
00:46:00.980
We now have zero debt, live off his income alone.
00:46:06.980
I'm glad we did things this way instead of the way we had been told.
00:46:13.980
The way that you did it is maybe backwards by modern standards.
00:46:28.980
And then at the end of young adulthood, start a family.
00:46:34.980
Ideally, it doesn't work this way for everyone.
00:46:37.980
But ideally, the path for most people and what we should be encouraging as a society is that people begin the family life at the beginning of young adulthood, not at the end of it.
00:46:47.980
Alice says, Matt, I love following your wife on Twitter.
00:47:04.980
This is almost as mind boggling as the giant stuffed walrus that I have not been given, though that is rightfully mine.
00:47:10.980
I was talking to my wife yesterday, and I mentioned something about Reddit.
00:47:16.980
Actually, it's because our pregnancy announcement ended up on the antinatalist Reddit forum.
00:47:23.980
The antinatalists, of course, are the people who are against babies.
00:47:31.980
They don't think that anyone should be born ever again because human life is a misery and a drudgery, and we should all just perish from the face of the earth.
00:47:37.980
Anyway, the pregnancy announcement ended up on the Reddit forum, and there's just a whole bunch of people very, very upset that my wife and I are having more kids.
00:47:46.980
I mentioned it to my wife, and her answer was, what's Reddit?
00:47:52.980
And I looked at her in shock, and I said, you don't know what Reddit is?
00:48:00.980
And so I had to explain Reddit to her, and this is what she said, I quote.
00:48:09.980
And I said, that's your frame of reference, an AOL chat room?
00:48:16.980
This is exactly like if I mentioned Google, and she said, what's Google?
00:48:20.980
And I explained it, and she said, oh, so it's like the Dewey Decimal System.
00:48:27.980
It's very, you know, I think it centers me in a certain way to be married to someone who is not only exactly opposite of me personality-wise and being bubbly and chipper and everything, but is so not online that she has never even heard of Reddit somehow.
00:48:44.980
I mean, how do you spend, how do you live in the internet age as someone in your 30s that just, you've gone your whole life and never encountered any mention of Reddit?
00:48:55.980
Brittany says, Matt, I'm a mom of four and proud minivan owner.
00:49:04.980
The extra 30 seconds it takes for the sound of screaming children to travel from the back of the van to the front was worth the purchase alone.
00:49:17.980
You have to give up coolness, give up style when you become a parent.
00:49:20.980
Of course, it was easy for me to do because, and I have to always keep this in mind, because I never had style or coolness, so I didn't actually have to give it up.
00:49:32.980
As you know, I was born in a flannel with a beard, so I have been essentially a very uncool dad my whole life.
00:49:41.980
And so for someone who had some style and coolness, it's a more difficult transition, and that's, you know, so that's in my wife's defense a little bit.
00:49:47.980
And the other thing is that she has clung successfully in parenthood to many different things that naysayers, including myself, told her she'd have to give up.
00:50:04.980
We have expensive white couches in our family room, and somehow they're not totally destroyed, even with four kids.
00:50:19.980
Evan says, Matt, on the subject of dying with dignity, I'm curious to hear your take on something.
00:50:23.980
My dad's brother died of dementia, unable to even recognize his own children.
00:50:27.980
My dad is a strong man, and he has taken his age in inevitable decline with grace, but he refuses to go out the way his brother did.
00:50:33.980
He has signed a living will asking to have the plug pulled if he's ever lying in bed as an invalid who can't recognize his own family.
00:50:40.980
I'm hoping it never comes to that, but if it does, I've told him I respect his wishes and pull the plug.
00:50:44.980
Do you think that I'm out of line telling him that?
00:50:47.980
I really do appreciate your point of view on these matters.
00:50:49.980
Well, there's a difference between suicide, right, and removing life support or, you know, pulling the plug, so-called.
00:50:56.980
And as for the latter, I think the ethics of it really depend on the circumstances.
00:51:01.980
So if somebody is old and dying and entirely dependent on machines to survive, then no, I don't think that they have a moral responsibility to stay on the machines and prolong their lives for as long as humanly possible.
00:51:17.980
But when you get to the point, the only thing that's keeping you alive are all these machines, and you've lived a long life, and you say, you know, this is my time, and I'm willing to go when God decides, and I'm going to leave it up to that, and I'm not going to use the machines.
00:51:35.980
I think that's a perfectly ethically defensible choice.
00:51:39.980
I mean, at a certain point, you have to accept the inevitable.
00:51:42.980
And at a certain point, even perhaps the responsibility goes the other way.
00:51:47.980
Like, you don't have the responsibility to prolong your life for as long as you possibly can, and there might become a time where ethically your responsibility falls on accepting the inevitable.
00:51:58.980
But it's a difficult question, and like I said, the circumstances really, really determine it.
00:52:07.980
And finally, Megan says, are you going to do anything special for your 1,000th episode on Friday?
00:52:16.980
Actually, since you mention it, our 1,000th episode will be Monday.
00:52:21.980
Tomorrow, we'll have some special content for you that we're putting together that I'm excited about.
00:52:25.980
So we're going to have that, but it won't be an official episode.
00:52:29.980
We are saving the 1,000th episode for Monday because we want it to coincide with something else that we're working on that's almost finished but not yet.
00:52:41.980
Is it ironic to make an ad for an ad-free viewing experience?
00:52:48.980
It's like the Alanis Morissette definition of irony.
00:52:50.980
But anyway, that's exactly the type of experience you're going to get.
00:52:53.980

00:53:24.980
Today we return to the subject of racism and parade mascots.
00:53:28.980
It is not a subject that I would choose to dwell on but this is a show that analyzes and discusses culture and this is what our culture cares about.
00:53:38.980
So to briefly review, a few weeks ago, somebody in a Sesame Street costume at a parade in Sesame Place in Philadelphia made the mistake of walking past a black child without stopping to greet her specifically.
00:53:49.980
Of course, mascots walk by many children all the time without greeting them for reasons that are obvious.
00:53:54.980
One innocuous event was caught on film, conveniently clipped to remove all context, and nationwide outrage ensued. Charges of racism were made, apologies were issued.
00:54:02.980
Soon afterwards, another family filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of all black families that had been victims of similar mascot-related hate crimes.
00:54:10.980
But the completely made-up problem of racist mascots extends beyond Sesame Street.
00:54:16.980
Apparently, the costumed rodents at Chuck E. Cheese are also racist.
00:54:21.980
No telling if the actual rodents that also frequent Chuck E. Cheese are racist as well, but we can only take one problem at a time.
00:54:27.980
This week, another video went viral of a black child being horribly traumatized by the minor disappointment of not receiving a high-five from a costumed character.
00:54:36.980
The mother of the victim tweeted the shocking footage. Let's watch it.
00:55:02.980
Please retweet, on July 30th at Chuck E. Cheese in Wayne, New Jersey, my two-year-old was racially discriminated against.
00:55:08.980
As you can see, he gives all the white kids high fives and purposely ignored my black baby.
00:55:16.980
The manager, Angie Velasquez, made excuses for him.
00:55:20.980
Ah, yes, that notorious white supremacist, Angie Velasquez of New Jersey.
00:55:30.980
I can't imagine what those excuses might be other than the fact that all the kids who received high fives were standing on a stage eye level with the mascot.
00:55:38.980
The child who was snubbed was standing three feet below them.
00:55:41.980
Given that your line of sight is almost non-existent in those sweltering death trap costumes,
00:55:46.980
the most logical explanation is that the kids on the stage were within his limited vision and the child below the stage was not.
00:55:53.980
So that's a logical explanation, but it's not a lucrative explanation.
00:55:57.980
If you're looking to cash in, as this mother clearly is, then the only explanation you'll possibly entertain is that the person in the mouse costume,
00:56:04.980
who you don't know and who may be black themselves for all you know, is racist.
00:56:09.980
Not only that, but for whatever reason, the costumed character gig attracts racists.
00:56:13.980
There is a conspiracy among mascots nationwide to traumatize black children.
00:56:18.980
This is what you allege when your demand for racism far, far outstrips the supply.
00:56:25.980
Now, for the record, Chuck E. Cheese was, of course, prepared to fold at a moment's notice.
00:56:29.980
They didn't put up any fight at all. I mean, none.
00:56:32.980
Chuck E. Cheese corporate released a statement expressing that they were deeply saddened by this event.
00:56:37.980
Quote, as home to millions of families and kids every year that celebrates the big and small milestones, including fun,
00:56:44.980
our goal is to create an inclusive experience for children and parents of all ages, races, ethnicities, religious backgrounds, and learning differences.
00:56:51.980
Our mission is to provide a fun and safe place where a kid can be a kid,
00:56:55.980
and all cast members are trained to ensure that we live up to this promise.
00:56:59.980
Now, you notice how, on the left, where they pretend to champion the poor and the working class,
00:57:06.980
they have no problem at all with giant corporations making scapegoats out of their minimum wage employees,
00:57:12.980
throwing them to the wolves, and branding them with the letter R for racist.
00:57:18.980
You know, they have no problem with that because, of course, these people don't give the slightest damn about the working class,
00:57:26.980
In fact, the more powerless somebody is, the better.
00:57:29.980
Because the easier it is to get them to dance to your tune.
00:57:32.980
The leftist outrage mob thrives on manipulation and intimidation.
00:57:37.980
They feel orgasmic delight at the sight of some poor sap bowing before them.
00:57:42.980
This was made all the more apparent yesterday when another video went viral.
00:57:48.980
But the mascot, these are Toy Story characters this time around,
00:57:53.980
So in this video, Woody spots a black girl in the crowd,
00:57:58.980
and frantically waves for the other Toy Story character to come over so that she can greet the child.
00:58:35.980
Okay. So actually, I don't know if that music was actually playing at the parade for kids. I
00:58:40.340
wouldn't be surprised if it was. I don't think it was. I think that was just put in, in post.
00:58:44.260
So you see there, the person in the cowgirl costume, I don't know what, what's the name
00:58:48.140
of that character? I don't know. What was it? Say it again. Jesse. Okay. Jesse and the cowgirl
00:58:55.020
there almost walked by the black child without noticing her, which would have been, as we've
00:59:01.560
seen, a national tragedy and a catastrophe of historic proportions. Fortunately, though,
00:59:07.280
through Woody's diligent efforts, she noticed at the last second and sprinted over to give the young
00:59:12.580
black girl the biggest and most specialist greeting out of all the other kids at the parade. Never
00:59:18.020
mind that she didn't hug the other black kids right next to that girl. I guess she's going to get a
00:59:23.240
pass in this case until the parents of those kids decide to sue for a hundred million dollars, of
00:59:27.380
course. Now the media has been reporting on that little video there, like it's a heartwarming sort
00:59:34.200
of human interest story, but it's actually quite sad and pathetic and terrifying. The minimum wage
00:59:40.600
lackey in the costume knows that they'll be smeared nationally as a racist, probably fired and maybe
00:59:47.340
sued if they don't specially acknowledge every black child, or at least every black child with a litigious
00:59:52.100
parent holding a camera. The hug was a hug given by someone who knows that they're going to be
00:59:57.860
arbitrarily attacked, libeled, and destroyed if they commit an entirely innocuous and innocent
01:00:03.180
oversight. This is somebody frantically trying to avoid a fate that shouldn't be anywhere within the
01:00:09.520
ballpark of possibilities in the first place. There should be zero risk that a kid in a costume at a
01:00:14.560
parade will end up in the headlines for accidentally walking past a black child in the crowd. There should be
01:00:20.460
no risk of that. This is now a real risk in our depraved, idiot-infested culture. Now the situation
01:00:27.380
is not sustainable. I mean, ultimately, and this will happen within the next few months, probably if
01:00:32.200
not weeks, companies like Disney and Sesame Street and Chuck E. Cheese will instate policies forbidding
01:00:37.200
mascots from greeting anybody at all. Allowing them to do greetings is now a liability because if any
01:00:43.260
video surfaces of any mascot failing to greet any black child, even if that same mascot greeted 50 black
01:00:49.860
children before, it becomes a PR scandal and probably a lawsuit. Companies will judge it simply not worth
01:00:55.400
the risk, and they're going to do away with what was once totally normal and seemingly risk-free.
01:01:00.940
The outrage mob destroys then yet another small little thing that once brought joy to children,
01:01:06.320
but now must be taken away because the parasites got a hold of it. And the most important thing we can
01:01:12.540
learn from this and take note of is, again, just how much joy these leeches take in all of this.
01:01:21.540
You know, the leftist mob, they were passing around that video for the Disney World video yesterday,
01:01:27.500
laughing hysterically about it. They think it's the greatest thing in the world. The very people who
01:01:32.740
pretended to be upset at Sesame Street and Chuck E. Cheese are laughing because they can see that their
01:01:38.560
charade has its desired effects. Because they love nothing in this world more than seeing people
01:01:44.800
jump through the hoops that they have set up. And that's all the more reason to never give these
01:01:51.220
frauds what they want. Defy them at every opportunity. Laugh in their faces. Never apologize.
01:01:59.440
Before they have a chance to say it to you, you must always say to them, you are canceled.
01:02:06.760
And we'll leave it there for today. That'll do it for this week. We have, again,
01:02:13.500
something special for you tomorrow. And then we'll be back with a regular show on Monday.
01:02:19.420
And it'll be our 1,000th episode. So I'll see you then. Godspeed.
