00:00:58.600 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.

00:01:10.300 Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. Happy Monday on a very busy

00:01:14.900 news day. Man, the hits are coming from the U.S. Supreme Court. Stubergier will be with us shortly,

00:01:20.840 but we begin with the breaking news out of the high court in a truly surprising decision.

00:01:25.960 The justices in a 5-4 decision upholding a Mississippi law already it's weird because the Trump administration is on the other side of a Mississippi law, which you would already expect that those two things would be aligned, the Trump administration and a Mississippi law, but they weren't.

00:01:42.340 the Republican National Committee actually brought this suit and then the Trump administration got

00:01:46.320 involved because it involves what is the question of what does election day mean? When can one vote

00:01:53.080 when the law says election day is this particular day? Can they vote for two weeks after, two months

00:01:59.520 after, like in California, where it seems as long as you can convince them that your ballot

00:02:05.780 may even have your own handwriting on it saying, I swear this is being postmarked on election day,

00:02:11.300 It can be counted for days and weeks thereafter. Or does it have to be the day of? Does that ballot have to be received the day of the election? And the Trump administration and the RNC have lost. And this is big. This is this is I'm sorry to say this, but this is a massive gift to Democrats.

00:02:32.900 I mean, look, what was at issue here was they were postmarked by Election Day in Mississippi, that's what the law says, and received by state election officials within five business days.

00:02:45.060 But can you ever remember a case in which ballots came in after Election Day and it helped the Republicans?

00:02:56.040 Has that ever happened?

00:02:57.820 I can't remember a single instance of that.

00:03:00.100 It always helps the Democrats.

00:03:01.740 Gee, so strange how that works out. And it's one of those things where Republicans can't prove it, but they smell a rat, like in California and the mayoral race. And the Democrats, I think, have gotten very clever about manipulating this system in a way that magically tips the balance their way. 0.63

00:03:24.480 where, like, Nithya Raman, who was in last position out there in that mayoral race,

00:03:31.320 suddenly surged to first in jurisdictions that she had been trailing. 0.98

00:03:37.920 She was down in single digits and now suddenly wins them thanks to that mail-in vote.

00:03:42.740 I guess her voters were just awfully silent about their love and support for her prior to the election day.

00:03:49.020 Or could it have been shenanigans by these paid Democrat operatives exploiting the homeless and others to make sure that ballots came in late?

00:03:59.640 And out there, the rules are so loose on postmarks and so on.

00:04:02.780 Literally, they're saying if you just write the date on the envelope and you write, you know, Tuesday, November, whatever, or whatever the election day was out there, it's accepted.

00:04:11.900 Here's what happened in this case.

00:04:13.240 Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump appointee, she's supposed to be one of ours. 0.97

00:04:17.820 Why do ours? Why are they always so wiggly? Honestly, like the libs, you can take it to the 1.00

00:04:23.480 bank. Kagan, Sotomayor, Ketanji Brown, Jackson. I have to admire their commitment to their side.

00:04:30.900 They never abandon their side, only in the most obvious cases where like they I mean,

00:04:35.340 they just get killed if they didn't in terms of the blowback, the rhetorical blowback.

00:04:40.040 But they stick together. Amy Coney Barrett is a turncoat. She's constantly siding with the left. 1.00

00:04:48.500 John Roberts, obviously, and he is pursuing the wrong agenda as chief justice. You know,

00:04:53.700 he's an institutionalist meant to protect the Supreme Court. That's not your job.

00:04:58.340 That's not your job in the actual decision making. And I can see in protecting the Supreme

00:05:03.040 Court's reputation, standing up for justices who are under attack, you know, threatened physically,

00:05:08.960 but you change your vote for that? I don't know that that's what he did here, but it's definitely

00:05:12.880 what he did in upholding Obamacare. So those two, you know, we're supposed to have six, three

00:05:18.000 conservatives to libs. And today we only had four conservatives and that's how we lost because

00:05:25.940 Roberts and Barrett jumped over to the liberal side and Barrett even wrote the court's majority

00:05:33.180 opinion. Mississippi's a red state. But the decision is expected to have a major impact 0.68

00:05:39.440 more than anywhere in Democrat heavy states whose elected officials often encourage residents to

00:05:46.440 vote by mail, which in turn causes votes to still be counted days, if not weeks after the election's

00:05:52.680 over. Case in point, California, as I mentioned, with the Spencer Pratt situation there. The RNC,

00:05:58.540 the state Republican Party, various individuals as well, had filed the initial lawsuit.

00:06:02.020 And the case was combined with a similar lawsuit from the Libertarian Party of Mississippi.

00:06:07.380 The plaintiffs arguing that the federal law defines an election as the day by which ballots

00:06:14.400 must both be cast and received, meaning absentee votes received after election day should not be

00:06:22.740 counted. This just seems so basic. But the majority at the high court disagreed with Barrett writing,

00:06:29.500 quote, Election Day statutes do not set a deadline for ballot receipt, so they do not

00:06:34.660 prevent Mississippi from counting ballots postmarked before Election Day yet received

00:06:40.460 afterward. Justice Alito, a true conservative, writing a blistering dissent, quote, Not only is

00:06:46.560 today's decision inconsistent with statutory text, legal context, historical practice and precedent,

00:06:52.320 it also threatens to produce lamentable consequences. The majority's holding spawns

00:06:58.140 a slurry of troubling election law questions and risks further undermining America's confidence

00:07:05.720 in election integrity. Boy, does he get it. Alito during oral arguments appearing to make the case

00:07:11.760 that election day should, as every other quote day with a capital D we have, be considered one

00:07:19.080 single day. We have lots of phrases that involve two words, the last of which the second of which

00:07:27.940 is day. Labor Day, Memorial Day, George Washington's birthday, Independence Day, birthday, and

00:07:36.600 Election Day. And they're all particular days. So if we start with that, if I have nothing

00:07:44.300 more to look at than the phrase Election Day, I think this is the day in which everything

00:07:50.940 is going to take place, or almost everything. And then we have three points in time.

00:07:57.940 1844, 1872, 1914. And we can ask, what would people have thought on those days is meant by

00:08:05.820 this phrase election day? Well, unfortunately, didn't go his way. Those years that Justice

00:08:12.540 Alito listed there are the years the federal election laws at issue in the case became law.

00:08:17.260 According to the New York Times, there are similar absentee ballot laws in at least 18 other states

00:08:22.960 and territories, including 2026 battleground districts in Nevada and California. Joining me

00:09:49.880 But Barrett and Roberts, turncoats on a really important one.

00:09:56.000 Yeah.

00:09:56.240 So what we learned with today's Supreme Court rulings is Election Day does not mean Election Day.

00:10:06.040 The president has the Article II power to fire FTC commissioners, but somehow he does not have the Article II power to fire governors on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.

00:10:19.380 because apparently we have a fourth branch of government.

00:10:23.640 I mean, it's just incoherence per usual coming out of the Supreme Court of the United States.

00:10:30.680 We had rulings several days ago where the president can end temporary protected status

00:10:39.320 for Haitians who came here 16 years ago after an earthquake

00:10:43.660 and Syrians who came here 14 years ago after civil unrest.

00:10:47.900 but but what that and then we could also the supreme court also said we can ensure that we 0.94

00:10:56.200 keep asylum seekers out of our country by stopping them before they get to the border you can only

00:11:01.220 claim asylum once you're in the united states but you watch megan tomorrow i guarantee you the 0.98

00:11:07.300 supreme court is going to rule that birthright we somehow gave birthright citizenship to chinese

00:11:15.480 birth tourists when we fought a civil war. Yeah, I know they're all over the board. Do you know

00:11:22.180 what I'm saying? When when the libs have the majority on the Supreme Court, this doesn't

00:11:27.580 happen to them. The liberal justices know why they're there and they behave accordingly. They 0.82

00:11:34.140 vote accordingly. It's only the Republicans who become the wishy washy institutionalists or the

00:11:40.780 crossover of votes, whether it's a Kennedy or an O'Connor or a Souter who completely jumped

00:11:47.500 to the other side. And now we've got Barrett and Roberts. It's very annoying, especially in a case

00:11:54.660 like the Mississippi one, where now we're talking about whether we can ever trust election results

00:12:00.740 because post-COVID, the Democrats are really enamored with this mail-in balloting thing.

00:12:05.180 Yeah, we're going to have this. The effect of this Supreme Court ruling written by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, Professor Barrett, is we're going to have third world elections. Election day does not mean election day.

00:12:20.040 It means on Election Day, when Democrats figure out how many votes they're behind, they're going to be able to go find those votes, fill out ballots, have their postal workers postmark those ballots.

00:12:34.680 And then apparently Election Day, under Barrett's rationale, is the number of days it takes for Democrats to steal the election.

00:12:43.180 Yeah, that's how it feels.

00:12:44.380 And I like now it's not just going to be Mississippi because it's going to be any state that allows the mail in ballots that as long as they're postmarked by Election Day, that they can be received and counted.

00:13:00.240 You know what? We're talking five days in the Mississippi case, but potentially much longer beyond that.

00:13:06.080 Here is we just got reaction from the White House on this standby. Hold on. Where is it? Let me grab it.

00:13:11.920 Um, the president, I thought I screen grabbed it.

00:13:18.220 Uh, yeah.

00:13:19.100 Wait, is this it?

00:13:20.080 Yeah.

00:13:20.580 The Cook lawsuit.

00:13:22.020 Oh, that's actually a different one.

00:13:23.940 Okay.

00:13:24.600 That's on the Lisa Cook.

00:13:25.520 We'll get to that in a second.

00:13:26.340 That's the White House reaction.

00:13:27.720 That's okay.

00:13:28.260 I can't find it. 1.00

00:13:29.220 Um, so in any event, that's bad news out of Mississippi.

00:13:31.680 Then you made a reference to a pair of other decisions that came out today and they involve

00:13:37.000 two federal firings that Trump affected.

00:13:39.720 Um, one was of Lisa Cook, who is a member of the board of governors on the federal reserve.

00:13:47.160 The audience may remember she was accused of having lied in her mortgage applications,

00:13:54.060 uh, in a way that was deeply troubling and she got fired as a result of it.

00:13:59.040 And she filed a lawsuit saying, you can't fire me for stuff I may or may not have done

00:14:04.580 prior to being nominated for this role. And like, as if, you know, whoops, you found out that I

00:14:11.440 committed, you know, some felony larceny when I was 25. That should no longer be relevant when

00:14:18.080 you're elevating me to an important position of trust. She was trying to argue it happened so

00:14:23.080 long in the distant past and no one raised it. No one caught me when I was applying for this job

00:14:27.400 that you can't ever raise it. That was basically her argument. And whether she actually did it is

00:14:32.740 still in dispute too, though seems pretty clear to me based on what we reviewed. In any event,

00:14:39.220 today the high court said, well, look, the Fed is an independent body and the president's ability

00:14:45.480 to mess with who's on it, who's on that board of governors is more limited than his powers are

00:14:52.820 across other federal agencies. Though they did not say he can never fire her. Basically,

00:14:57.760 they just said he can't fire her during the pendency of her lawsuit. So she is not done yet.

00:15:03.700 She has not won. She won temporarily, and their fight is going to go on, and he could still win

00:15:09.420 that. But he did get a big victory in his attempt to fire Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, who was on the

00:15:16.360 Federal Trade Commission. And the court, Mike, held that the president's powers to fire executives

00:15:24.400 at these so-called independent agencies,

00:15:29.000 whether it's the FTC,

00:15:31.260 the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission,

00:15:34.640 the NLRB, that's the Labor Board,

00:15:36.940 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

00:15:38.580 the Consumer Protection Bureau,

00:15:39.680 all these things is much greater

00:15:41.860 than many people thought

00:15:44.980 because it views these

00:15:46.940 as essentially executive agencies

00:15:49.080 and he's the chief executive.

00:15:51.160 And the left is already freaking out about this,

00:15:53.120 saying these are oversight watchdog types. You know, President Trump's going to go nuts like 0.71

00:15:59.060 this president in particular. And Sotomayor basically said that from the bench today, like, 0.86

00:16:03.400 forget it. There's nobody to oversee the president anymore. He can do whatever the hell he wants

00:16:07.860 at any one of these oversight agencies and no one will be watching him. So your thoughts on

00:16:12.300 that pair of rulings, the Lisa Cook and the Rebecca Kelly slaughter.

00:16:16.400 Well, it's very chiefy, as we say, that the chief justice would release these rulings at the same

00:16:23.100 time today. You release one ruling where Rebecca Slaughter gets canned and the Supreme Court says

00:16:29.360 that's okay. And conservatives are very happy. The Supreme Court overturned Humphrey's executor

00:16:35.700 the Supreme Court ruling from the 1930s that said essentially the president can't fire people who

00:16:43.040 work in the executive branch unless he had a good cause. The Supreme Court got rid of that,

00:16:48.480 which is a good thing. Six to three, the six conservatives found their way to stay in line

00:16:53.460 for once. But then we have this other ruling with the Federal Reserve Board Governor, Lisa Cook,

00:16:59.700 where somehow she has special status under our Constitution. I remember reading Article 1 of

00:17:08.580 the Constitution that creates Congress and the legislative power, Article 2 that creates the

00:17:13.300 president and his executive power article three that creates the supreme court the lower federal

00:17:18.540 courts and their judicial power i guess we missed megan when we went to law school this separate

00:17:24.520 part of the constitution that creates this fourth branch of government called the federal reserve

00:17:30.440 board of governors and it's really really really hard for the president of the united states to

00:17:36.260 fire anyone on this federal reserve board of governors that was a five to four decision that

00:17:41.920 apparently the Federal Reserve Board of Governors is separate from the executive branch. Apparently

00:17:47.420 the president doesn't have the Article II power to fire the Federal Reserve Governors,

00:17:53.980 but he does have the power to fire the FTC and other so-called independent commissioners. It's

00:17:59.400 a head-scratcher, but you had the chief justice write that opinion. Justice Kavanaugh joined that

00:18:05.180 opinion, which surprised me, and it was a five-to-four decision with Professor Barrett.

00:18:09.800 another trump appointee yeah professor barrett joined the the constitutionalist i will just say

00:18:14.680 that my former boss neil gorsuch did not screw us today so i'm quite pleased about that but i i do

00:18:21.880 think that we're going to get screwed tomorrow on birthright citizenship i presume we'll talk about

00:18:26.280 100 yes so no it is disturbing because the court has basically accepted a legal fiction about the

00:18:36.700 fed that it's like we we have the constitution we have the articles you know you got article one

00:18:42.300 the congress article two the presidency and article three the judges where does the fed sit

00:18:47.960 it's got to be underneath one of those like it all these executive agencies are technically we

00:18:55.480 we understood under the president's power in article two so if the fed's not there where is it

00:19:02.220 But who's got power over it?

00:19:05.160 It's in this magical Article 7.

00:19:07.520 It's in this special place with the sacred cows in Washington, D.C.

00:19:11.900 You have the Kennedy Center.

00:19:13.060 You have the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.

00:19:15.700 And you have August Recess, the three sacred cows of Washington that no one can touch.

00:19:20.960 So that's it.

00:19:22.000 Obviously, I'm joking.

00:19:23.360 I mean, you're exactly right that the Supreme Court is essentially saying the president has the executive power under Article 2

00:19:31.880 to fire everyone in the federal government, in the executive branch, including these FTC

00:19:38.100 commissioners, for any reason he wants, or no reason, under Article 2, the power to hire and

00:19:44.140 fire. But apparently, Article 2 does not include the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. So what

00:19:51.300 is it? I would ask that to the Chief Justice and Justice Kavanaugh. What is the Federal Reserve?

00:19:56.000 If the president doesn't have the power to fire the governors, is that is this some special committee of the Supreme Court, this Federal Reserve Board of Governors?

00:20:05.200 Is it a legislative committee?

00:20:06.900 I'm just I'm scratching my head to figure out what the hell this Federal Reserve Board of Governors is.

00:20:12.460 I was just talking to a friend of mine who had back surgery and they had to do like fusions and all sort of the weird things that happen to your back.

00:20:18.820 And there had been a piece of bone that was like floating around in the spinal fluid, just randomly floating.

00:20:24.580 I don't know what happened to it, but they had to take it out and remove it.

00:20:27.380 That's like how the Supreme Court is treating the Fed.

00:20:30.160 It's not connected to anything.

00:20:32.140 It just floats on its own, you know, running around doing damage in this.

00:20:36.580 No one can remove it.

00:20:38.120 No one can touch it because there's nothing that it was or ever will be a part of.

00:20:42.820 That doesn't make any sense.

00:20:44.500 But I do think that Lisa Cook, it's still on.

00:20:48.180 He's still going to go for her because it just said you can't fire her during the pendency

00:20:51.780 of this lawsuit.

00:20:52.640 He's he's not done with her.

00:20:54.580 And here is how the president responded on the Cook lawsuit. He writes the Cook lawsuit having to do with her suitability and sitting on the board of the Federal Reserve was sent back by the Supreme Court on a strictly procedural basis. We will take appropriate action immediately to make sure that someone who has committed wrongdoing will not be making vital decisions concerning the welfare of the USA. Thank you for your attention to this matter. And by the way, my team did send me his his comment on Mississippi and what Election Day means. Here's it's very long. I'll read it to you in part.

00:21:22.740 In light of the tremendous loss in the Supreme Court today regarding voters' rights and the fact that people's, in quotes, votes, meaning President Trump has questions about whether these are real votes that come in after the day, are allowed to be counted long after an election's over, it's more important than ever to pass the Save America Act.

00:21:40.840 One, all voters must show up for their ID. Two, all voters must show proof of citizenship. Three, no mail-in ballots except for illness, disability, military deployment or travel. There's no excuse for a politician or otherwise to be against the above three requirements. There is only one reason to oppose cheating. The House of Representatives has approved this vital act three times.

00:21:59.320 the U.S. Senate seems unable to do so in a time when there is a powerful communist movement

00:22:04.140 taking place in our country, one more dangerous than World War I, II, Pearl Harbor, or September

00:22:08.860 11th. All Democrats and our five Republican Senate holdouts, Murkowski, Collins, Tillis,

00:22:14.240 Cassidy, and McConnell must vote to save our country. There can be no more excuses. Those

00:22:19.760 are the senators who are saying no on the Save Act, not just on getting it a vote, but on the

00:22:25.960 actual act itself they are prepared to vote no they don't like the save act and then no i don't

00:22:32.120 i don't know what can be done to preserve integrity uh at the ballot box without the

00:22:38.500 save act and now with this lawsuit uh with this with this supreme court decision back to

00:22:43.080 lisa cook and this rebecca slaughter and this pair of decisions mike something extraordinary

00:22:49.160 happened on the Supreme Court bench. Sotomayor was very angry over the slaughter decision. Again,

00:22:56.480 that's the one in which the court said he does have the ability to fire these executives at

00:23:02.020 these so-called independent agencies, these agencies that I just listed, though they didn't

00:23:06.800 limit them. There's some 18 of them. And basically Trump can fire executives at all of them now.

00:23:11.300 And the next president can too. And they essentially overruled this case called

00:23:15.640 Humphrey's executor that had allowed that. And the court said, no, they're not like the floating

00:23:20.840 piece of bone. They're connected to the spinal column and Trump rules that. But Sotomayor was

00:23:27.780 P.O.ed. She dissented. And this is the New York Times reporter who was in the courtroom writing

00:23:33.660 one of the most notable moments was her dissent when she criticized the court for extending its

00:23:38.820 quote maximalist view of presidential power. She spoke firmly, often extending a look to Chief

00:23:44.760 Justice Roberts, who delivered the majority opinion, which in this case went against the

00:23:49.400 libs. He did not meet her gaze as the minutes went on. She began to stumble over her words

00:23:55.280 as Sotomayor asserted that, quote, the one thing that does appear to be clear going forward

00:24:01.480 is that chaos will follow. End quote. Her fellow liberal Justice Elena Kagan seated several chairs

00:24:08.260 to her left, looked overcome with emotion. What is it with these, you know, the hens up there like, 1.00

00:24:17.020 oh, I'm distraught. I'm overwrought. I'm, you know, pointed barbs about President Trump,

00:24:23.600 the man and overwrought with emotion. This is not good for womankind.

00:24:28.340 I would say this to Justice Sotomayor. Look, does she think that we should have 0.98

00:24:35.380 these executive branch bureaucrats not report to the duly elected president of the United States. 1.00

00:24:44.180 We should just have the Tony Fauci's of the world just do whatever the hell they want. And there's 0.98

00:24:49.880 no Democrats accountability ever. The reason the liberals wanted Humphrey's executor, this

00:24:56.500 Wilsonian mess of government is because the liberals control the federal government. These

00:25:02.420 career bureaucrats who work in the executive branch are overwhelmingly liberals, or even worse,

00:25:09.700 Marxist, socialist, communist, right? And so we're just supposed to defer to these so-called experts

00:25:17.040 who are unelected and unaccountable to anyone, including the American people through our duly

00:25:23.180 elected president. We have something that's called elections to Justice Sotomayor and the other

00:25:29.780 liberal hens. And if they if they if they don't like what the president is doing with his

00:25:37.280 executive branch, A, we don't have to give the executive branch bureaucrats as much power

00:25:42.620 as we do. And B, we can throw out the president and put in a new party to run it how the American 0.98

00:25:50.020 people wanted to run it. We just did this, for example, with immigration.

00:25:53.360 kagan and sotomayor seem to be mistaking the their vote on election day for their vote

00:26:02.280 on the high court they're two different things and and they they have less power than they'd like

00:26:07.820 um i want to ask you a question not about the supreme court today although just to reiterate

00:26:14.100 what you said tomorrow is the last day of opinions for the supreme court this term and we know then

00:26:20.360 that we're going to be getting at least well we're definitely going to be getting the remaining four

00:26:24.260 opinions two of which are the biggest opinions of the term one is whether president trump has the

00:26:29.760 right to say the birthright citizenship clause of the 14th amendment does not does not apply to

00:26:36.100 birthright tourists who come over here from china have their babies here and then declare that

00:26:40.580 they're american citizens with all the same rights you and i have and our kids have and the other is 0.53

00:26:45.420 whether states can ban the participation

00:26:49.140 of so-called trans athletes in girls' sports. 1.00

00:26:52.620 Do they have the right? 1.00

00:26:53.740 It won't, even if it goes our way,

00:26:55.640 it's not gonna ban that practice in 50 states.

00:26:58.580 It's just a question of whether

00:26:59.840 those more conservative-leaning states that said,

00:27:02.220 we're not gonna allow this,

00:27:03.760 have the right to say, we're not gonna allow this.

00:27:06.720 And I think that'll go our way.

00:27:08.140 And I agree with you, 0.53

00:27:08.840 birthright citizenship will not.

00:27:11.520 But I wanna ask you about something else in the news

00:27:13.760 that's that relates to one of your favorite issues and also the law. And that is our DHS

00:27:19.620 secretary, Mark Wayne Mullen. It has really upset many on the right by saying the following to Jake

00:27:27.480 Tapper on CNN in an effort to mollify his concerns about that temporary protected status Supreme

00:27:38.660 Court decision from last week where the high court said, you know, temporary means temporary. And if

00:27:43.620 President Trump wants to revoke it for Haitians after 16 years or 18 years and Syrians after 16

00:27:49.500 years. He can do that. That that's an executive branch function. He's allowed to do that. You 1.00

00:27:54.520 know, he granted it. He can take it away. And, you know, cue the meltdown from bleeding heart

00:28:00.500 leftists to all the Haitians. They need us. It's like, go home. It's 18 years. So he goes on with

00:28:07.860 Jake Tapper and says the following, which, again, Laura Ingram, many conservatives are like, what?

00:28:13.620 Watch.

00:28:14.640 Will you be deporting all of them?

00:28:17.480 Will they be all deported back to their home countries, Haiti and Syria?

00:28:21.160 And when will these deportations start?

00:28:23.440 Will it be immediately?

00:28:25.220 Well, Jake, first of all, temporary protective status was never intended to be permanent.

00:28:29.220 And there's a lot of people that came over here 15, 20 years ago underneath TPS that's already changed their status.

00:28:35.740 The whole time these individuals have been here underneath the temporary protective status,

00:28:40.080 they could have applied for a visa.

00:28:42.460 they could have applied for LPR, they could have applied for different directions,

00:28:48.120 but the status itself can be ended in its name itself by saying temporary.

00:28:52.820 So these individuals have a couple of choices.

00:28:55.080 They can try to apply for a permanent residence here.

00:28:59.140 They can apply for a temporary visa if they choose to, or they can choose to go back.

00:29:05.460 And if they want to go back, we'll help them with that.

00:29:07.700 If I would if I'm talking directly to the individuals with the temporary protective status, either try to fill out the paperwork and be here underneath a permanent status or we'll help you get back to your country.

00:29:21.560 We'll actually give you a plane ticket plus roughly twenty one hundred dollars to help you reestablish when you get there.

00:29:29.880 OK, and what people are upset about is him saying you've got a couple of choices.

00:29:34.980 you can apply still for permanent residence here or for a visa or go back. Whereas I think

00:29:41.640 most people expected it was go back. You were here on a permission slip that's now been revoked.

00:29:48.860 You did not do any of those applications while you were here on our invitation. And now that

00:29:53.780 your status has been revoked, the answer is not for you to be doing applications. The answer is

00:29:58.220 get out yeah so mark wayne mullin uh he got lit up by conservatives including me very publicly on

00:30:08.480 x uh i've also made my extreme dissatisfaction known very privately within to trump worlds

00:30:16.700 all the right people um he i think he got the memo pretty quickly because he's been backtracking

00:30:22.600 fast, very fast. But I would say this, how the hell is that your response? You go on a liberal

00:30:29.680 network like CNN. We've been fighting for years to get these Haitians and Syrians the hell out 1.00

00:30:35.900 of our country. And your response is to go kiss Jake Tapper's ass and try to make this 1.00

00:30:44.680 a plea to the left that you're trying to be as kind as you can. Get these people the hell out 1.00

00:30:52.320 of our country. We had Biden let in over 20 million illegals into our country. They abused 1.00

00:30:59.080 our system. They abused our generosity. They abused our goodwill. And people like me who used

00:31:05.900 to be a lot softer on immigration five, 10 years ago, I'm just as hardline as you can get. Get

00:31:13.660 these people the hell out of our country. If and when the Supreme Court says that Chinese birth 0.99

00:31:19.340 tourists and other illegals get birthright citizenship. We need to get all illegals out 1.00

00:31:24.300 of our country fast. And we need to start with birthing aged women, get them out of our country. 1.00

00:31:30.100 We have zero compassion left for these illegal aliens. They've overrun our small towns. They've 1.00

00:31:36.780 overrun our cities. They've brought in crime. They've brought in filth. We're tired of it.

00:31:42.000 We don't want America to become Europe, overrun by Muslims, overrun by people who hate us. We 0.98

00:31:48.840 don't want it. Yeah, exactly. We've been really clear on that. That's why President Trump was

00:31:54.460 elected in part. I think Kristi Noem understood that. I'm not sure why Mark Wayne Mullen didn't

00:32:01.380 and why. Yeah, I agree with you. He went on in front of a liberal audience and tried to

00:32:06.300 pander to them, which is the last that like Stephen Miller would never make such a mistake.

00:32:11.200 What's what's the deal with this Mark Wayne Mullen? Do we know, Mike?

00:32:14.080 I hope he doesn't have the IQ of a Haitian like we saw on CNN, but he needs to he needs to understand that this is not the Senate. 0.99

00:32:24.800 You're in the Trump administration. And if you're going to bring your Senate weakness to the Trump administration, you're not going to last because the American people, Trump's voters, are not going to tolerate weakness on immigration. 0.99

00:32:39.880 That's what keeps us united. And if Mark Wayne Mullen or his Oklahoma buddy, he just picked a run ice, try to backtrack on full throated immigration enforcement, especially after this birthright citizenship ruling tomorrow that's going to screw us, then there's going to be a loud call for his resignation.

00:33:01.060 yes yes and uh as you point out you know a lot of people in the administration and they

00:33:06.700 should be very grateful to you for all the advocacy and great work you've done

00:33:09.720 we are for you coming on this show so often mike it's a pleasure good to see you thank you megan

00:33:14.120 um so you heard mike's point about the haitians and honestly like i i'm i feel exactly as he does

00:33:20.920 i don't feel charitable toward this group of people at all there are multiple sob stories 0.98

00:33:25.380 out there about these haitians now they're trying to peddle this like oh they're just here uh mike

00:33:30.620 Mike DeWine, the governor, like, oh, they're just, you know, they're contributing to society.

00:33:35.540 Oh, we have it. OK, here's here it is. Listen to Mike DeWine, the Ohio governor.

00:33:39.440 So three. Governor, you just heard Secretary Mullen defend the decision. You say it's a mistake.

00:33:43.940 What's your take? Well, I think it's a mistake for a number of reasons.

00:33:48.040 You know, first of all, to go back to what you were just discussing, you cannot fly into Port

00:33:53.920 of Prince today. The U.S. carriers are prohibited from going in there. They've they've extended

00:33:58.600 that ban, federal officials, the United States have extended that ban into September now. And,

00:34:03.760 you know, it's been there for a long time. The reason they can't go in there is because these

00:34:07.420 gang leaders who control a good part of Haiti today shoot at the planes when they come in.

00:34:13.800 So that's certainly one thing you've pointed out, you know, advisories, heavy advisories,

00:34:20.120 U.S. citizens do not go into Haiti. It's a very, very dangerous place. But the other point

00:34:26.400 is it is not in the United States's interest, certainly not in Ohio's interest to have people

00:34:34.820 who are working every single day, who are supporting a family, who are buying houses,

00:34:40.220 fixing up old houses, starting businesses and then put deep roots in this country and really

00:34:46.940 are contributing and yank them out. Unbelievable. OK, so deep roots. What do you mean

00:34:54.600 that the whole label says temporary. They knew that very well. Clearly, they didn't apply

00:35:01.800 for a permanent residency because they would have gotten it had they applied. And especially

00:35:06.960 under the Biden administration, they either didn't apply or they did apply and they were

00:35:10.980 rejected. But it's time to go home now. You've been here on our good graces for far too long.

00:35:16.160 And those wonderful jobs that they're allegedly taking could be taken by American citizens,

00:35:20.620 as can their homes, which they're driving up the rents for.

00:35:24.500 And these folks have proven themselves to be a danger to the communities that they are in.

00:35:31.640 OK, I'm going to give you one more.

00:35:33.660 That's the current governor of Ohio.

00:35:35.220 Here's John Kasich, who's the former governor of Ohio.

00:35:39.360 I knew him at Fox News.

00:35:41.240 I can't believe he's talking like this.

00:35:43.340 But listen to this.

00:35:45.300 The Supreme Court decision has said that Haitians are going to have to be removed

00:35:50.100 from Springfield, Ohio. I guess I understand that, but there is an opportunity for the Congress to 0.84

00:35:56.780 extend temporary protection status because things in Haiti are just deteriorating and sending people

00:36:02.480 back there with their families to me is just crazy. I wish the Congress would extend this for

00:36:08.180 the Haitians, but if not, they'll say that that's the law. And to quote somebody, a figure from a 0.98

00:36:15.380 Charles Dickens novel, if that's the law, then the law is an ass. 0.98

00:36:22.180 We have extended it. It's an 18-month stint. And we've extended it 10 times. They've been 0.95

00:36:29.180 here for 18 years. That's enough. Why should American citizens have to suffer indefinitely

00:36:36.500 because Haiti can't get its shit together? Because Haiti's still not hospitable to American 0.99

00:36:41.820 tourists. I'm going to guess it's a little better if you're an actual Haitian going back home. No, 0.98

00:36:47.140 we're not going to go down there to tour. Yes, we do think it's a shithole country. It's really not 0.99

00:36:51.620 our responsibility. There are a lot of them. You know, we did these folks a real solid in allowing

00:36:57.620 them to come here temporarily to avoid the problems down there. It is not our obligation

00:37:04.320 to fix Haiti and to house all of its citizens until it can perform as a more upstanding, 1.00

00:37:12.900 less third world country. That's not our job. Sorry. That's like there are there are a lot of, 1.00

00:37:19.700 you know, teenagers out there who have like absentee parents who are committing crime

00:37:25.340 in the underbelly of our biggest cities. Is it our job? Those of us who have functioning well,

00:37:32.660 mentally stable families to go try to get them they get arrested they get sent off to you know 0.96

00:37:39.480 some family home some group home is it our job to to take them in so they can disrupt our family 0.97

00:37:45.860 is that our obligation and if we do like a foster family if you add a child in and he's incredibly 0.99

00:37:51.540 disruptive and he hurts your existing children in your home do you have an obligation to keep

00:37:57.900 him forever because you let him come over once out of a good heart he must stay now because you

00:38:04.120 know the home from which you got him the group home well that's no place for a teenage kid to

00:38:09.840 live well i'm sorry we tried to do something nice it didn't work out they need to go back home they 0.99

00:38:16.100 didn't assimilate they've been disrupting these communities i don't know about these sob stories

00:38:19.940 that these two governors of ohio are trying to spin to us but let me tell you what the real story

00:38:24.480 is, okay? Because we went back and combed through the news reports about these Haitians, these

00:38:29.060 wonderful Haitians that we're told all about who are allegedly just like you and me. They're just

00:38:33.360 living life in rural Ohio, just like their fellow Americans. It's not true. Watch the following 0.99

00:38:40.300 reel. This is just a few. We could have been here all day with these news stories, but it's only a

00:38:46.340 limited show. So here's a highlight, a lowlight reel, if you will, of what these Haitians have 1.00

00:38:52.440 been up to. Amanio Joseph crossed the center line, hit the bus and caused it to flip. 52 elementary 1.00

00:38:58.860 students were on board. An 11 year old boy, Aidan Clark, died. Mr. Joseph shattered our lives.

00:39:04.380 Prosecutors learned he has a Haitian immigration registration in Florida. The court had to recruit 0.86

00:39:09.880 a local health care worker to interpret in Creole after learning Joseph could not understand English

00:39:14.880 or Spanish. Investigators say the man suspected of murdering a mother with a mallet outside a gas

00:39:20.720 station in Fort Myers is in the country illegally. The suspect came here from Haiti. He had a

00:39:25.680 temporary protected status to stay, but DHS says that status expired in 2024, so he was in the

00:39:31.600 country illegally. The man charged with going on the violent rampage appeared in front of a judge

00:39:36.520 today. In chains, McKendie Darbusy stood in the courtroom as the details of the deadly stabbing

00:39:42.760 were revealed. A four-year-old, 13-year-old, and a 77-year-old. Darbusy, a Haitian national. I've

00:39:49.060 been prosecuted in 25 years, and this case is as bad as any I've heard about. Justillion is being

00:39:54.900 charged with murder, rape, strangulation, and felonious assault connected to the homicide of

00:39:59.720 26-year-old Crislanda Auguste. Both the victim and defendant are from Haiti. Alvarez is a migrant

00:40:05.100 from Haiti. He stands accused of raping another migrant, a 15-year-old girl. 26-year-old Jordani 0.95

00:40:11.260 Joseph from Haiti is charged with rape and kidnapping. The man convicted of killing a

00:40:16.280 woman and stuffing her body in a closet. Turns out he was supposed to have been deported before

00:40:21.380 that murder occurred. He killed my daughter. I'm so upset. I mean, there's no reason for this.

00:40:27.360 It's tragic knowing that this man was never supposed to be in the country. At the first

00:40:31.520 place, he was supposed to be deported back to Haiti. A man in this country, illegally with 1.00

00:40:35.700 17 criminal convictions here in Massachusetts, is now in custody. Member of a violent Haitian 1.00

00:40:41.320 street gang. I'm not going back to Haiti. I says he's a gang member with 17 criminal convictions 1.00

00:40:47.300 in recent years. You feel me? No, Biden forever, bro. Thank Obama for everything that he said for

00:40:54.420 me, bro. I'm not going back to Haiti. You are going back to Haiti, as are your fellow Haitians

00:41:01.660 who have overstayed their welcome, period. You're going back to Haiti, all of you. 1.00

00:41:09.360 Sorry. I don't mean to sound heartless. I understand not every Haitian is a criminal, 0.99

00:41:15.120 but enough of them are that they need to go. This should not be our problem. And Mike DeWine with 0.97

00:41:21.440 his, oh, they're fixing up old houses. They're starting businesses. They're supporting a family.

00:41:25.880 Why don't you tell it to the woman at the 7-Eleven who got her brain bashed in with a hammer? 0.90

00:41:31.040 Why don't you tell it to that little girl and her mom and her grandmom who got stabbed to death by that Haitian? 1.00

00:41:37.020 Okay, I'm not so sure they're all setting up businesses and raising families peacefully, Mike DeWine. 1.00

00:41:46.240 I want to bring in Stu Bergeer.

00:41:47.780 He's our guest today.

00:41:49.300 He's been watching, and he is the host of Predictable with Stu.

00:41:53.620 Stu, great to have you.

00:41:55.620 This is the problem with what Mark Wayne Mullen said, what Mike DeWine said, what John Kasich said, all three of whom are Republicans.

00:42:06.060 Wild, wild to see it, you know, and even to extend what he said, we're going to give them twenty one hundred dollars to resettle, are we really?

00:42:16.080 I know a lot of people who could use $2,100 who live here and have never broken the law and don't have to don't have to make an argument about whether they're allowed in this country because they were born here and they're citizens and have been their entire lives and really could use $2,100.

00:42:31.620 You know, look, I'm with you.

00:42:33.620 There are people who come here that do contribute to our society.

00:42:36.880 You know, I think we've seen a microcosm of of how American the American people feel about visitors to this country with everything that's gone on with the World Cup over the past few weeks. 0.86

00:42:46.300 When we have people coming in from these other countries and, you know, going to Buc-ee's and and seeing, you know, the stuff that we kind of take for granted and celebrating it.

00:42:54.460 When we have people who come here legally and come here with an appreciation for the country, with an idea that they do want to assimilate, that they do want to not just take advantage of all the wonderful things we have, but celebrate them and further them and contribute to that whole project, we love it as Americans.

00:43:12.820 I think it's something that we actually cherish. And you'll see, by the way, in a lot of the countries that we might be sending people back to, they have very dissimilar policies and approaches to immigrants coming into their countries. They reject them.

00:43:27.660 We, I think, have been very open to the idea of having people come here, but we've lost track of, we've lost the plot a little bit here, Megan, where the idea was to improve the country, not just for the citizens, but also the people who are visiting from other countries.

00:43:46.060 We want to further that project and make this a better place for everybody to be.

00:43:50.360 It's not just importing everybody else who's running away from a terrible regime and then huddling them in tight knit communities where they're essentially just importing this disastrous situation they had in Venezuela or or, you know, in Haiti or some other place.

00:44:10.360 We're not looking to import that.

00:44:12.320 we're looking to improve our situation with people who can achieve things and contribute to

00:44:18.180 society. Those people absolutely do exist. But the way to do that is not a blanket 25-year

00:44:24.820 temporary designation where we let everyone come in and essentially import their Haitian lives

00:44:32.460 into Ohio. Yes, you've got 350,000 of them still. We're not talking about a case-by-case 0.93

00:44:42.160 basis, which is still being evaluated by the administration. You know, if you if you come and

00:44:46.640 you seek asylum or what have you. But this is like three hundred and fifty thousand Haitians.

00:44:52.120 We didn't need that ever in America. And the citizens of Ohio are all over the record in 1.00

00:44:59.960 objecting to what they're doing in their various communities like Springfield. It's just the

00:45:05.360 mainstream media won't play it. They ignore their testimonials, especially because they tend to be

00:45:10.540 white Ohioans as opposed to black people from Haiti. And so the media's knee jerk instinct is 0.96

00:45:17.180 one is evil and one is all goodness and will ignore reports. Remember that 7-Eleven video

00:45:22.680 Trump tweeted out and he said, I'm sorry, this is so violent, but I had to I had to draw attention

00:45:27.480 to it. That's that's one of these great Haitians that we're supposed to be loving here in the

00:45:32.820 United States. There's lots of this. I had this argument with Bill Maher a year and a half ago

00:45:37.740 where he said you know a lot of americans commit crime too fine but we have to keep them we're not

00:45:44.640 allowed to deport americans but we we are allowed to deport bad house guests who come stay 18 years

00:45:53.560 and start hacking up grandmas we are allowed to say no to that yes we are i mean you're totally

00:46:01.440 right uh you know we have enough insane people of our own it's not to say that we're perfect you 0.87

00:46:06.880 You know, America has a lot of crazy people, a lot of people, but it's just like kind of having somebody in your family.

00:46:12.780 It's like you're kind of stuck with them at some level, and that is true. 0.99

00:46:17.100 The bottom line, though, is we don't need to import more insane people.

00:46:21.300 There's no reason we have to do that.

00:46:23.300 We can go by case-by-case basis and screen very, very tightly and look for people who are absolutely additive to our country.

00:46:33.040 I'm not a person who thinks that we should never have anyone who comes here. 0.56

00:46:36.000 You know, a lot of other nations, by the way, do have policies like that, that they don't allow anyone in for basically any reason.

00:46:43.440 We have not been that that country. And I do think that's been to our benefit when applied correctly, when applied in a sane manner.

00:46:53.720 You know, it's one thing to say, like, hey, they're in the middle of a tragic situation and, you know, we can we can help some of those people out.

00:47:01.980 you know we don't have to do that that's not our we're not forced to do that we have done it in the

00:47:08.360 past and at times i think i've seen benefit out of that like one of the examples that i see all

00:47:11.900 the time and we we would have callers all the time that would call into a glenbeck radio show

00:47:16.080 who would be people who came from former communist nations right people who went through the tyranny

00:47:22.960 of communism and came here because they they not not because like oh gosh well i can take advantage

00:47:30.120 because they have higher hourly rates over there.

00:47:33.140 They came here because they love this country

00:47:35.520 and they had seen what the other approach to leading a nation was.

00:47:39.980 They had seen communism.

00:47:41.300 They had seen socialism.

00:47:42.540 And it made them among the greatest Americans we had

00:47:45.720 because they had seen the opposite side.

00:47:47.920 They didn't take what we had for granted.

00:47:50.300 There are approaches where this can work really, really well for our nation,

00:47:54.200 but it's not just mass importing hundreds of thousands of people

00:47:57.700 from a third world nation. 0.93

00:47:58.820 And then I think, in addition, a big part of this problem, Megan, is is putting them in this one big clump. 1.00

00:48:05.940 Right. Like, you know, I do think that's a real problem with this because it is it extends, I think, the honestly normal human instinct.

00:48:15.460 You're around people who are like you that have maybe some of the same traditions and the same, you know, cultural ideas.

00:48:22.680 And you never do assimilate because of that. You know, like I my neighbor is an immigrant point. 0.99

00:48:28.660 Yeah, my neighbor is an immigrant from a family, immigrants from India.

00:48:33.400 They're awesome.

00:48:34.820 They absolutely have been additive to this country.

00:48:37.640 They have helped this country.

00:48:39.300 They have, you know, they're high achievers.

00:48:41.740 They've done great things in the community.

00:48:43.440 They're really good people, and I love them, and I'm glad I live next to them.

00:48:46.820 You know, that is the image. 1.00

00:48:50.340 They live in a community that is not 100% Indian.

00:48:53.460 A lot of the people around them are totally different races and cultures,

00:48:56.380 but they very much seem like they could have been living here their entire lives.

00:49:01.060 Why? Because they want to be that way.

00:49:02.960 They like America. They want that.

00:49:05.340 Contrast that with what we heard in that first report and that reel that I just played,

00:49:09.660 where it's like the guy couldn't even speak English.

00:49:12.280 He committed a bunch of crime and then needed a translator at his hearing

00:49:15.720 because he didn't even bother to learn the language.

00:49:18.280 Here, listen to this.

00:49:19.200 All right. This is in the Dayton Daily News,

00:49:23.640 because ohio lawmakers are among those who are now urging the u.s congress to override the supreme

00:49:32.580 court decision saying trump has this authority like to to pass some piece of legislation demanding

00:49:37.820 that they stay and ideally i guess they they see it as a veto proof uh majority that would pass

00:49:43.580 this to allow these haitians to say and then there was a letter to the editor from a guy who calls

00:49:50.040 himself ticked off Ohioan after seeing that, all this push. And he writes as follows. I'm tired of

00:49:56.180 reading a one sided view of the Haitian influx in Springfield. Their presence in Springfield and all

00:50:00.820 of Ohio has been detrimental. But the only people the media interviews are pro Haitian. Our political

00:50:05.900 leaders are not advocating for the majority of the citizens. There are some that work, but at lower

00:50:10.600 wages, less or no benefits and no complaints. That's not good for Americans, by the way. TPS

00:50:16.240 Haitians have been treated better than the citizens of Springfield. There are many complaints

00:50:20.400 of how rude and entitled these people are because they know they have the support of people who are

00:50:24.420 benefiting from their presence in some way financially, boosting self-importance or increasing

00:50:28.780 congregations in church. But no media interviews workers anonymously in the fields that deal with

00:50:35.640 these problems like teachers, polices, nurses, cashiers, police, nurses, cashiers, workers at

00:50:40.700 the Social Security Office, DMV, or the Health Department. The pro-Haitian media coverage has

00:50:46.740 fueled the fire. That's what's real. The media is on board with whitewashing all of these problems

00:50:53.060 still and letting citizens of Springfield and other communities just like it deal with it.

00:50:57.780 President Trump knew better. He listened to the voters on his campaign. He understood that these

00:51:04.200 folks needed to go. They had overstayed. They were not additive. He couldn't be shamed out of it

00:51:09.720 You know, by the debate moderators on ABC or by anybody else, and then he enacted the policy, he said he would.

00:51:17.420 He ran on this exact thing, which is why I believe what Mike Davis said, which is that Mark Wayne Mullen understands now they will not be allowed to stay. 0.99

00:51:28.240 We will not be encouraging them to apply for permanent residency.

00:51:31.300 and Mullen's self-reversal on X,

00:51:35.520 whether it's sincere or not,

00:51:36.780 is what's going to rule the day

00:51:38.000 because his boss, I believe, is on our page.

00:51:41.540 Okay, Stubergear stays with us.

00:51:42.920 Quick break.

00:51:43.500 We'll be back in a minute.

00:51:44.500 Don't go away.

00:51:45.400 Our sponsor, the Electronic Payments Coalition,

00:51:48.200 says Washington politicians

00:51:49.540 are always getting in your wallet

00:51:51.200 and that now they're messing with your credit card.

00:51:54.420 They say your credit card

00:51:55.520 and the security it offers are under attack

00:51:57.980 and that Senators Dick Durbin and Roger Marshall

00:52:00.420 want to change the nation's payment system to benefit corporate megastores like Walmart and

00:52:05.320 Target at the expense of everyday Americans. Credit cards can keep your payments secure

00:52:10.140 and provide rewards that families use to help make everyday purchases more affordable.

00:52:14.500 The Electronic Payments Coalition says the Durbin Marshall mandates would let corporate

00:52:18.720 megastores cut corners on credit card processing, routing transactions over cheaper, untested

00:52:23.720 networks with weaker security and fewer protections. Find out more at guardyourcard.com

00:52:50.680 So Stu, just to continue on the Haitian immigrant thing,

00:52:54.860 we just went back and looked at the headlines

00:52:58.440 coming out of the press.

00:52:59.920 especially in Ohio on this. And it is like MSNBC wrote all of them. You would think there was

00:53:06.780 universal support for these hundreds of thousands of Haitians to stay. 10 TV, Columbus, Ohio,

00:53:12.820 Springfield residents rally in support of Haitian community after Supreme Court TPS ruling. WKRC

00:53:19.000 in Cincinnati. In Cincinnati. Local advocates warn of risks after ruling clears way to end

00:53:27.460 TPS for some immigrants. Just want you to know about the risks that that'll be affiliated with

00:53:32.440 sending them home, not keeping them here. Dayton Daily News, hundreds rally in support of Haitians

00:53:38.620 after TPS decision. Springfield News, Sun in Springfield, Ohio lawmakers among Haitian TPS

00:53:45.640 backers urging Congress to override Supreme Court decision. More from 10 TV. Fear grips Haitian

00:53:52.760 communities after Supreme Court ruling unwinds protection from deportation. Let me show you

00:53:58.700 a different set of headlines. OK, we put this together back when this was in the news during

00:54:05.420 the presidential election and President Trump was under fire for the presidential debate at which

00:54:10.380 he said they're eating the dogs. They're eating the cats. And what was happening in Springfield,

00:54:16.480 Ohio with these Haitians took center stage of the news. They had massive turnout at community

00:54:25.820 meetings where the Springfield residents tried to make their own voices heard directly, which did

00:54:30.960 not get headlines like this all over Ohio news. It only appeared sporadically on places like Fox,

00:54:37.440 like this show and a few others. And here's just a walk down memory lane. This is two years ago.

00:54:43.640 I guarantee you all of these people are very much in favor of the Supreme Court restoring reason and affirming President Trump's ability to tell these people their stay has now ended.

00:54:56.180 Watch.

00:54:57.260 Come to Walmart and stay a day.

00:55:00.880 Go to the bank and stay a day.

00:55:03.120 Go to any place and stay one day.

00:55:06.180 And you'll see what we see.

00:55:08.480 Drive around our community.

00:55:09.780 mr heck i sent you video of the homeless people living in the back of lincoln school i have the

00:55:18.100 pictures here today they're living in back of lincoln school i even showed you video of them

00:55:24.820 you could see the monkey bars nothing has to be done code enforcement won't come out the police 0.82

00:55:29.960 won't come out come to the real life go to walmart and watch those haitians open up jars of the 0.95

00:55:36.000 tomato paste pizza sauce dip their fingers in and eat it go to Kroger's you know how Kroger's 0.89

00:55:41.540 has a little fruit up front for like five bucks they pick it up and start eating it then discard

00:55:47.100 the thing I've seen them do it so I'm not here saying I know they're doing it I seen it

00:56:24.620 up so i called nationwide which is my car insurance and my homeowner's insurance you know what they

00:56:29.520 said because the accident rate in springfield has tripled oh god and listen to the police monitor

00:56:36.900 listen every day these officers get called out to haitians that no one can speak their language

00:56:41.780 and they get out and run we didn't vote for this you guys voted us for this and now we're seeing

00:56:48.960 the repercussions of it we got i noticed we got a pretty park million dollar park down here

00:56:54.520 lady of the trail we got new concrete out here i don't see any squatters tent cities or anything

00:57:01.840 here but we got them in our neighborhoods shouldn't we share are we all not in this together 0.99

00:57:08.760 are we all not in this together i've heard people express concerns about personal safety women who

00:57:14.260 are afraid to walk in stores women stalked out into parking lots with their children by groups

00:57:19.720 of individuals staring at them and and taking pictures of them uh women afraid to go to the gym 0.75

00:57:25.320 uh we've heard about needles uh in playgrounds and in vacant lots people sleeping in bushes all

00:57:31.900 over town um but not once have i heard people complain about race and i wish you guys would

00:57:37.780 stop pushing this through the filter of identity politics because it's allowing you to ignore our

00:57:43.140 real concern and that's what you've been doing you've been ignoring us amazing and that i'm not

00:57:49.100 hearing that anywhere, Stu. But those are actual Americans who have had to live with these people

00:57:55.640 who are not so worried about the fear gripping Haitian communities after Supreme Court ruling

00:58:00.820 unwinds TPS protection. Yeah, no, I mean, no, those voices typically don't get heard. Right.

00:58:06.920 And, you know, the last guy, I think, put it really, really well. You know, if you're sitting

00:58:11.600 here saying, well, I don't want people who don't look like me in my community, that's a totally

00:58:14.920 different complaint that I'm not hearing out of those people's mouths. That's not what they're

00:58:18.080 saying that's not what they're saying at all i i suspect megan if we imported 350 000 swedish 0.97

00:58:24.760 people into uh into uh ohio and they started hitting women over the head with mallets at gas

00:58:31.740 stations the people there would be just as angry about it it's got literally nothing to do with

00:58:38.180 the color of someone's skin it's got to do with the way that people act in a community and whether

00:58:43.120 they want to be part of the community and one of the one of the speakers there said something like

00:58:46.880 I mean, aren't we all in this together? Quite simply, the answer to that is no. Right. The people at these levels in politics and that are that are implementing these policies on regular people are not in it with them.

00:59:00.160 They don't think about them. That's not their concern. And that's why people are angry. And that's why I think people are reacting this way.

00:59:07.720 They they're fine with people in their community who become part of their community when when when you have you're importing high levels of crime and people who take advantage of the systems that we've built to try to help people.

00:59:22.600 That's where it gets really people get angry.

00:59:24.260 They're the taxpayers.

00:59:25.000 They're the one footing the bill for this.

00:59:26.600 And I went I was on a trip a while ago, just a vacation to the Bahamas.

00:59:31.760 And I was there for a few days and I was sitting there at a table talking to a guy who was also visiting.

00:59:37.200 And he was there for a longer period of time.

00:59:39.020 He was there for several weeks.

00:59:40.940 And, you know, this guy seemed like he was he did very, very well for himself.

00:59:44.340 And I was asking about and we were talking about his trip.

00:59:46.260 And he said when he came in, he didn't have a an exit flight booked because he was like, I'm going to come for a few weeks.

00:59:52.360 He was like a business owner and could kind of run his business remotely.

00:59:55.040 And he said that when he came in there, the people, you know, as he was being accepted into the country, the people in the Bahamas said, we need to see proof that you have enough income and enough in your bank account.

01:00:06.300 to be able to sustain your time here because we don't want to be able to we can't be responsible

01:00:12.240 for you if you're going to come here and you're going to be a wealthy tourist and and and you

01:00:16.560 know throw lots of money around we'd love to have you it'll be great as long as you're following

01:00:20.320 our laws but if you can't if you come here and you're just going to live off of our system we

01:00:25.900 can't allow you to even enter on a vacation we're talking about 20 years of allowing people to come 1.00

01:00:32.720 in here and essentially giving them the exact thing that the people in the bahamas wouldn't

01:00:37.820 allow for a couple of weeks that is you know their policy is pretty sane there they should

01:00:43.520 be able to scream people to say hey look if you're going to come here and enjoy our nation great

01:00:47.360 but we can't be paying for your lifestyle here that is not what we've implemented with these

01:00:52.980 people and of course there has to be some sort of expiration date to that it's not just crazy

01:00:57.460 people on the right it's not just local community members saying that it's the supreme court saying

01:01:01.360 it as well. Obviously, this is a sane ruling and a sane reaction, I think, by the American people

01:01:08.640 to say, look, we'll be giving when we can, but we're having our own tough times here. This can't

01:01:13.400 be an eternal situation. There are limits to it. And again, Trump ran on this. It was an explicit

01:01:22.340 promise. And it is one of the reasons he got elected to look out for the forgotten man in

01:01:27.620 the middle of Nowheresville, Ohio, who are not represented by the elite talking heads all over

01:01:35.280 MS Now talking about what a shame this is and how heartbreaking it is. They've never even met

01:01:41.960 a Haitian immigrant. They have no idea what these people are dealing with, what that first man saw

01:01:47.280 when he went to the Walmart, which he wasn't the only testimonial about this custom or habit or

01:01:53.400 practice by a lot of these Haitians of going into grocery stores or stores like Walmart and opening 0.84

01:01:57.540 up the jars and eating with their fingers. We heard multiple testimonials just like that. 0.99

01:02:03.360 Why should you have to live like this? Why should you have to worry when you're

01:02:06.940 with your daughter and you're going to the gym or you're going by a school and they're on the

01:02:12.400 monkey bars instead of your kids because they've decided to set up temporary housing there,

01:02:17.840 notwithstanding all the government largesse that we've dumped on them. We don't just say, 0.76

01:02:21.580 like, welcome to America, bye. We've been supplementing their lives, subsidizing their

01:02:27.280 lives. They've been getting government checks. It's over. It's over. Like, we're done. We're

01:02:32.920 done with the crime. The thing that all of them testified to, and I remember this from 2024, was

01:02:38.000 the driving, how they're terrible drivers. And you heard that first guy making the point of

01:02:42.740 how his auto insurance had tripled. Like, none of these people writing for WKRC or any of those,

01:02:48.460 they're not that's not being reported on. You need to get to a real live American citizen,

01:02:55.400 ideally blue collar, to ask how have they actually affected your life? And that doesn't include Mike

01:03:02.960 DeWine or John Kasich, both of whom have turned into limousine liberals who are more interested

01:03:09.380 in pandering to the left and getting pats on the head for being so accepting than they are in

01:03:15.320 holding President Trump to his promise, which he is living up to. And these people need to go.

01:03:22.100 So good. All right. I want to keep going. Amazingly, something extraordinary happened

01:03:28.980 to my least favored politician in America. The audience has heard me talk about him. His name

01:03:35.380 is Scott Wiener. And we've been on the Scott Wiener beat for a long time here, because if you

01:03:41.080 oppose the gender madness happening in America, then he's on your radar. He is demonic in his 0.88

01:03:48.880 push to trans children. I mean, truly, this guy is evil in the way he's pushed for laws to make 0.99

01:03:57.280 California a sanctuary state so that minors can move there and trans themselves over parental 0.80

01:04:02.860 objections. He's openly gay and is very bizarre with it. I'm sorry. I know a lot of gay men who 1.00

01:04:10.100 are not like openly into the bondage and pushing these bizarre open displays of perversion. He's 1.00

01:04:17.660 one of the gays that makes people associate perversion with gay men. And it's unfair. I know 0.99

01:04:25.880 a lot of amazing gay men who are not perverted, not weird, normal American patriots who behave

01:04:36.420 privately in a way that floats their boat, but don't want you to look at it or think about it

01:04:41.860 or put it on display at all. Scott Wiener is the opposite of those guys. And he's disgusting. It's

01:04:49.220 not enough for him to live his own perversions. He's got to bring it to children who may be

01:04:53.620 struggling with gender dysphoria nationwide, which is why I can't stand him. And he's running for

01:05:00.440 Nancy Pelosi's seat. I didn't realize Pelosi had endorsed his opponent. There's another very

01:05:07.400 progressive Democrat running against him. Those two would have both advanced to the general in

01:05:12.320 November. And this other woman could potentially beat him, which is kind of exciting. She's pulling

01:05:17.080 behind him, but maybe not for long. I don't know. So of all things, I mean, he's been hoisted on his

01:05:22.860 own petard, Stu, because you, you, you know, live by the sword, die by the sword. You create the

01:05:29.160 Frankenstein monster, and when it turns around to try to get you, you have no one to complain to.

01:05:35.860 And this guy's been all in on every woke agenda item the left has served up over the past few

01:05:43.600 years, except one sort of. The left, as we know, has turned hard on Israel. And they've turned so

01:05:53.960 hard on Israel that some faction of the left actually is anti-Semitic. You know, I object to

01:05:59.720 the conflation of those two things. You can be very anti-Israel and its government and BB and

01:06:05.240 what they've been doing to get us into wars, et cetera, and still have nothing but love in your

01:06:09.440 heart for American Jews. I see them as so distinct. But there is a faction that doesn't.

01:06:16.400 It's not entirely on the left, to be fair. But there is a faction that conflates the two

01:06:20.260 and can't stand either. And Scott Wiener ran smack dab into that faction over the weekend

01:06:28.380 when he went to some pride event. It was like pride Shabbat or Shabbat pride. I don't know.

01:06:34.860 It was like Jews and pride all in one. And that's what he is. He's Jewish and prideful

01:06:41.360 because he's never seen the rainbow he doesn't want to wear or shove on you. 0.77

01:06:44.420 and the pro-Palestinian crowd who are also this group confronting him, pro-trans,

01:06:52.800 which makes no sense, I grant you, none whatsoever, but whatever. Again, these are not our rules.

01:06:58.620 This is these weird leftists who are like, you got to like be in favor of every oppressed group.

01:07:02.460 And even if they, you know, what the one wants to kill the other half, they get in Scott Wiener's

01:07:07.560 face to the point where I almost felt bad for him. Even I almost felt bad for him. And then

01:07:14.140 I remembered, stop, stop, stop, snap out of it. It's Scott Wiener. Here's how that went.

01:07:20.900 Scott, I think your legislation on trans, on trans issues and your legislation specifically 0.91

01:07:28.000 protecting queers on the sex offender registry is fantastic. The genocide in Gaza, 0.98

01:07:36.720 I think your policy on the genocide in Gaza is terrible. I think you do not belong here.

01:07:44.140 i think you do not belong here you do not belong here scott anymore it sucks because you've been 1.00

01:07:51.180 wonderful you've been wonderful for trans people and you've been terrible and you've been terrible 0.99

01:07:58.620 you've been terrible you've been terrible on gaza it breaks my heart that someone who wrote 0.99

01:08:05.580 Your legislation for queers is so fucking terrible on Gaza. 0.99

01:08:12.600 Scott, do you have anything to say? 1.00

01:08:14.660 Do you have anything to say about Gaza? 0.91

01:08:17.700 Say something. 1.00

01:08:19.220 Redeem yourself.

01:08:20.740 Do something. 0.70

01:08:22.060 Scott, I want to like the person who has such good legislation on trans rights. 1.00

01:08:30.620 You're a piece of shit. 1.00

01:08:32.380 We fucking hate you. 1.00

01:08:33.240 Scott, how could you betray queers? 1.00

01:08:35.580 How could you oppress people? 1.00

01:08:39.100 You stopped in clear the moment you started supporting Israel, you piece of shit. 1.00

01:08:50.080 Stu, what do we make of poor Scott Wiener? 1.00

01:08:54.680 It's funny because I had seen that video but hadn't heard all of it.

01:08:59.380 And it's incredible.

01:09:00.780 It's like this weird combination of, like, compliments.

01:09:08.840 Wonderful! You've been wonderful!

01:09:11.640 You've done great things for our community!

01:09:14.180 I love the legislation you passed!

01:09:17.340 It's a really weird approach.

01:09:20.880 In some ways, I really feel kind of bad laughing at it in that, you know, these people are horrible that are around him.

01:09:28.440 absolutely horrible horrible people who are doing this to this guy who as i'm with you i do not

01:09:34.680 appreciate him or his politics or anything that he does um you know and it's just funny to hear

01:09:39.820 them kind of compliment it's like your your legislation is great your abs are wonderful

01:09:44.420 i can see that you really work out on a regular basis your style is quite nice i'd like the tie

01:09:51.080 you wore when you were shirtless it's a very weird approach it's very true he's working himself up

01:09:59.240 into a lather and it seems to me the guy yelling at him which we believe is named dimitri yakoshkin

01:10:05.100 uh who goes by he they or whatever pronoun upsets you the most um is like playing to the crowd you

01:10:14.560 know it's like as he gets snaps for being mean to wiener on the palestine thing he leans in like

01:10:21.040 he uses that same energy to like attack him on the Palestine thing. But yeah, he's got to point

01:10:26.800 out he's been. So it is a question for somebody like that. Like, what's your highest prong on

01:10:32.300 your woke ladder? Is it Palestine or is it gay and trans? Because let's be honest, those two 0.99

01:10:38.200 things don't they don't work together no matter no matter where you are in the world. You can't

01:10:44.040 really be super pro Palestine and super pro gay. You kind of have to choose because everybody knows 0.69

01:10:50.000 what's done to gays over in Palestine. It doesn't end well for them. So for this particular he slash

01:10:56.540 they or whatever pronoun upsets us, I guess he's ranked Israel-Palestine over his he-they-ness 0.55

01:11:03.540 because, you know, his he-they-ness would result in him getting shoved off a building over there. 0.66

01:11:09.880 So it's a tough situation. And the reason he's mad at Weiner is because Weiner said he didn't

01:11:16.940 think that israel was committing a uh a genocide in palestine and then got booed at an event and

01:11:23.740 literally like that that same day it was after a debate in january he put out a statement claiming

01:11:30.800 israel is committing a genocide okay wait we have the spot where he first disagreed before he then

01:11:36.600 reversed himself watch is israel committing genocide in gaza

01:11:41.160 and literally like right after he puts out the following statement for those of you who

01:12:00.620 saw the debate clip i want to clarify that i do believe israel has committed genocide in gaza

01:12:05.780 to me the israeli government has tried to destroy gaza and to push palestinians out

01:12:10.940 And that qualifies as genocide. Enter his leftist progressive opponent, the one Pelosi backed, whose last name is Chan. 0.52

01:12:23.760 And she responded, people getting killed didn't move him, but booze at a forum did.

01:12:29.200 This is about politics, not principle. He's going to have a tough this is a tough line to host, Dubergier.

01:12:35.740 very tough line yeah and you know certainly there's going to be a lot of enjoyment and

01:12:40.640 watching a squirm uh watching him squirm on that line over and over and over and over again because

01:12:45.320 you know he has no idea what to even do here and that's the thing i think what what people on the

01:12:49.980 left don't really realize is that there's no limit here there's no limit to uh you you'll never be

01:12:56.960 woke enough if you will for for some of these people and you know when you look at that sort

01:13:02.580 of a problem that i think any rational person would have when you're trying to square the idea

01:13:07.280 of of of being pro-gaza and pro-palestinian and you know honestly quite honestly with these people

01:13:13.480 pro-hamas right when you're talking about that type of approach and trying to square that with

01:13:19.160 being you know pro-lgbt the idea that they're going to him and saying oh gosh i you didn't 0.78

01:13:23.900 stand up for queers how can you be for uh you know uh you know not be a pro-palestinian enough

01:13:29.560 again none of that makes any sense but that is the point the point is none of it has to make 0.99

01:13:35.060 sense it has nothing to do with logical reasoning i think a lot of times conservatives we get

01:13:40.340 ourselves in trouble trying to have logical conversations and rational reasoning with

01:13:45.880 with people like this that's not what they're here for they're here to destroy when you're

01:13:50.360 talking about the people that will go up to a guy who's been going to every trans parade since 2004

01:13:56.180 he's been going to everything every single one of these things like the heart of the trans movement

01:14:01.580 this dude yes he is and the fact that he has been out there doing this he's gone this far and still

01:14:08.960 his he had to leave because he was scared i mean his own words uh for his own physical uh you know

01:14:15.560 safety and the safety of his staff right after all that he's done to please to pander to go down

01:14:23.360 every direction that the left wanted he's still going to get this and i i hope there's a lesson

01:14:28.500 to be learned for if there are any uh regular democrats left in politics to understand what

01:14:34.340 this is these people will come for you it's not just us yeah sure we're first in line but they

01:14:39.820 will come for you too yep totally and and if you're not okay if you're not with them entirely

01:14:45.820 on this new issue he thought he had pandered all one can pander on their signature issue in san

01:14:53.080 Francisco. And he found out the hard way. There is a new signature issue. And if you are running

01:14:58.560 for office as a Democrat, you have to be against Israel. I mean, you do you you must be or you get

01:15:05.220 the Scott Wiener treatment. Look what happened to him when he went to the parade. You know,

01:15:09.200 Jews wrapping up with a bang. Stuber gear. They saved all their most outlandish pride parades 1.00

01:15:13.920 until the end of the month for some reason, because we've got tape out of New York City

01:15:17.480 that's also abhorrent. But here is on San Francisco, the pride parade. And look what

01:15:22.000 happened to him there. Got chased out.

01:15:52.000 I don't need to talk about none of that shit. 0.99

01:15:53.820 I'm not talking to him. 0.99

01:15:55.140 This is a mission district.

01:15:56.540 You should be a saint.

01:15:58.080 You have no saint come to my community. 1.00

01:16:00.560 This is a mission district, homie. 1.00

01:16:01.880 You wouldn't have a problem. 0.99

01:16:02.620 Free Palestine, bro. 0.55

01:16:04.660 Okay, so Rich Lowry wrote a great piece on this.

01:16:08.820 It's on NR that reads, 0.61

01:16:10.420 Is Scott Wiener still queer? 0.55

01:16:12.380 Because the one guy's like, 0.97

01:16:13.580 You're not queer anymore unless you support Palestine.

01:16:16.780 And he writes this.

01:16:18.760 He's been subjected to the worst struggle session style

01:16:21.380 public humiliations since those of Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry in the wake of the death of

01:16:26.200 George Floyd. Wiener, who has been accosted at a bar, that's the film we just saw, and at a

01:16:31.660 transmarch, doesn't respond to the harassment. Instead, he stays silent and looks at his

01:16:37.440 assailants with sad eyes. That's right. But he writes as follows. Wiener clearly knows that his

01:16:44.260 interlocutors are lunatics, but realizes he can't make a wrong move or say the wrong thing in reply

01:16:51.360 lest he put his career at risk because now the issue of Gaza has taken a place at the ideological 0.75

01:16:58.960 core of the left, and he does not know how to handle it still. Yeah, I mean, he was right on 1.00

01:17:07.100 the issue of the day every other time in his career, and he celebrated other people, I'm sure,

01:17:12.760 that were dealt with dismissively or worse when they had the wrong opinion on whether it was trans

01:17:19.760 issues or gay issues or whatever the whatever the issue of the day was a few months ago now that

01:17:24.440 israel's the issue of the day and again what did he do he he he didn't you know his approach to

01:17:30.740 all these incidents is just standing there with the as rich uh lowry writes with puppy dog eyes

01:17:35.500 which is great it's a great example it is what he does there and he's terrified to do anything wrong

01:17:42.220 but all this started with him sitting there as well with just sad puppy dog eyes not putting up

01:17:47.460 a sign accusing Israel of genocide. So, you know, all of this is sort of like, it's going to build

01:17:54.980 upon itself. And you can tell that these words don't really mean anything. It's about the anger.

01:18:01.120 It's about the movement. You know, like when he's saying you're not queer anymore, well,

01:18:05.240 does the word queer have a definition? I mean, because from everything I've ever understood

01:18:09.880 about it, it had nothing to do with what your position on Israel is. It's a totally different

01:18:14.620 topic that has other words that are descriptive. We have a language that uses words to describe

01:18:19.740 certain events. Queer was not had anything to do with what was going on in Israel,

01:18:23.960 but they just use these terms. And basically what it means is bad, right? You're bad. You're a bad

01:18:29.420 person. Let me, let me, let me answer that because Rich gets into that too. It wasn't the guy in the 0.94

01:18:35.200 bar that yelled at them. It was somebody at the pride parade and they yelled, you stop being queer 0.95

01:18:39.820 the moment you started supporting israel you piece of shit and this is what rich posits um 1.00

01:18:45.900 wieners tormentors surely conceive of queerness as a revolt against an oppressive order i think 1.00

01:18:53.920 that's right and think of hamas in the same way in this scheme israel is western white and settler

01:19:01.940 colonialist making it as bad as the gender binary so it for them it's not about it's not actually

01:19:08.340 about the genocide being committed in gaza it's about the races of the various participants in

01:19:16.640 the middle east and the fact that he's a white man and he's siding with white people in israel

01:19:23.700 over the poor oppressed palestinians it's not it has nothing to do so much with what israel's

01:19:27.600 actually doing you know it's like those people who are on 10 8 were declaring it a genocide it's

01:19:33.320 like wait a minute they barely started defending themselves and it's already a genocide and we're

01:19:38.140 celebrating the taking of Israeli hostages, like those people had a different agenda,

01:19:43.460 saw the whole conflict or a racial lens and they're back and they're they're holding receipts

01:19:49.860 on Scott Wiener, who has exactly the same worldview on every issue other than this one.

01:19:57.640 So it's wonderful. I love watching him have to face the consequences of his weird, disgusting,

01:20:05.640 ugly, pernicious worldview. I mean, it's it's always entertaining when the left eats its own 0.99

01:20:11.720 and they will continue to do this. You know, I mean, it's like there is a momentum, I think,

01:20:18.880 in the party. Generally speaking, there's a you know, the Hamas wing of the party, if you will,

01:20:24.700 that is growing and growing and growing in its intensity. You know, going to an event on 10-8,

01:20:30.200 the day after the massacre started and accusing them of genocide is completely insane but it is

01:20:37.000 a nice way to get a zoran mamdani endorsement it's certainly a nice way to right now to play

01:20:42.280 into the the actual uh energy in the party which you know turns from time to time i mean i've been

01:20:48.580 doing this you know long enough megan to remember when the attack on the right was that we were all

01:20:53.860 anti-Semites where that's all gone now. And all the people that were supporting that those types

01:21:00.920 of attacks are now on the wrong side of them because they won't say they won't deal in the

01:21:08.280 world of compelled speech, which, by the way, is completely unconstitutional to say free Palestine

01:21:14.160 when you're at a coffee shop. This is crazy. Right. Stu, that moment is like so reminiscent

01:21:18.780 of the BLMers, right? 1.00

01:21:20.060 Like, say it, lift your fist and say it, 1.00

01:21:22.200 free Palestine, free Palestine. 0.63

01:21:24.200 And, you know, he wasn't going to do it. 0.70

01:21:25.580 He wasn't going to go that far.

01:21:26.640 He was just still with the sad eyes campaign.

01:21:29.080 But you're right.

01:21:29.860 I mean, this is,

01:21:30.840 that's what's so satisfying about it, frankly,

01:21:32.620 is we were all subjected to this

01:21:35.940 back in 2020 on the race thing.

01:21:38.280 And now he's getting subjected to it.

01:21:40.020 Notwithstanding all of his far left wing bona fides,

01:21:43.880 he couldn't save himself.

01:21:45.940 The mob eventually turned on him too.

01:21:48.780 Yeah, I think his best his best answer to this right now is to just say in all of these

01:21:54.160 incidences, incidents around that we've been watching is that he had his ear AirPods in

01:21:58.880 and was listening to music and didn't hear.

01:22:02.360 That's why he just kept staring blankly at them.

01:22:04.960 I don't know what else he can do.

01:22:06.320 There's no way to win.

01:22:07.560 Yeah, there's no way to win with these people because they are here to destroy.

01:22:12.100 But he's begging.

01:22:12.960 Oh, yeah.

01:22:13.680 Wait, listen.

01:22:14.180 Listen to what he said.

01:22:15.160 He put out a statement.

01:22:16.540 Listen to the begging.

01:22:17.840 OK, it's like, but I'm woke.

01:22:20.180 I'm woke.

01:22:21.000 Look at all the stuff I've done.

01:22:22.320 I'll just give you a few highlights.

01:22:23.560 Last night, I attended a trans march, as I've done each year for the past 22 years, since

01:22:28.300 the first march in 2004.

01:22:30.160 I attend each year in solidarity with our trans siblings who are facing existential threats

01:22:36.000 from right wing extremists, including the president.

01:22:39.100 He's hitting it all.

01:22:40.140 Right wing extremists.

01:22:41.060 The president is bad.

01:22:42.120 I've been going for 22 years.

01:22:43.640 Trans siblings say it all like I he's like, I can pander with the best.

01:22:47.380 them. Don't turn on me. As I walk through Dolores Park to participate in a trans-led Pride Shabbat

01:22:53.740 service in connection with the Trans March, a group of people began screaming at me, ran up to

01:22:58.260 me, surrounded me, began harassing me verbally, physically, including physical contact. They made

01:23:02.160 statements about my Israeli handlers, among many other inaccurate, extreme, and vile statements,

01:23:07.980 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I have no objection to anyone disagreeing with me, blah, blah, blah,

01:23:11.580 but when oppression and disagreement translate to harassment, including cornering me, touching me,

01:23:16.560 or trying to physically bully me out at a public event, that crosses a line.

01:23:21.880 So he's got to let you know, like, I am a leader in this movement.

01:23:28.120 I can outwoke anybody.

01:23:30.660 Go turn your ire on somebody else.

01:23:33.520 There's, you know, there's lots of people you could target besides me.

01:23:37.260 I've been an ally is basically what he's saying.

01:23:40.040 And they are not having it.

01:23:41.500 And by the way, here's one of the things, Stu.

01:23:43.560 he when a um coffee shop called phil's philz in san francisco decided to stop showing pride flags

01:23:56.060 in their store they decided that they wanted to create a quote more consistent inclusive experience

01:24:01.880 like for the heteros and he they didn't want the pride flag everywhere did scott wiener say i get

01:24:08.940 it. Let's be tolerant. Let's allow everybody to express. No, look at him. He showed up there

01:24:14.240 after he had successfully bullied them into reversing the decision. And this is what he

01:24:20.220 looked like. Sat nine. Phil's just announced that the pride flags are going back into Phil's

01:24:26.180 locations. This is a huge win for the community. It's amazing. And a huge thanks to all of the

01:24:32.200 Phil's baristas who advocated and who fought for our community. Thank you.

01:24:38.940 waving a pride flag he's wearing a pride boa he's wrapped in a pride flag he had a pride

01:24:44.860 umbrella i appreciate it thank you standing in front of the establishment interacting with the

01:24:50.060 customers going in he's he's fine fine with confrontational advocacy as long as he's not

01:24:57.600 on the receiving end of it stew right yeah you know i would legitimately have some sympathy for

01:25:03.320 him um because nobody should be treated the way he was treated at that park you should not that

01:25:08.060 should not happen to people in in the united states of america it's just hard to have any

01:25:12.560 sympathy for a guy when he's been on the other side of this over and over and over again if he

01:25:16.680 was one of the people who were saying something like hey look we all have different views uh if

01:25:20.640 if a private business in a free society decides that they don't want to hang up a certain color

01:25:26.100 flag like hey look you can choose whether to go there or not you don't have to go there you can

01:25:31.220 go to another place that has the flags up if that's uh if you're looking for a particular

01:25:34.980 gay coffee. You can do that. I mean, I kind of think of, you know, coffee is not really having 0.91

01:25:40.700 a sexual orientation, but whatever. If you really want a gay Danish, you can go find it somewhere 1.00

01:25:48.300 in the city. I am sure of it. Just like if he had that approach, I'd have a lot more sympathy for 1.00

01:25:54.140 him. But he's just finding himself the victim of something that he has encouraged over the past 20

01:26:00.480 years and that doesn't make what happened to him right but it does make it a little bit more uh

01:26:06.840 more difficult to you know I got a lot of things I got to worry about in my life Megan I've got

01:26:11.480 kids who were growing up I've got we've all got bills to pay we got they got family issues to

01:26:15.840 deal with I there's only so many things I can care about on a day-to-day basis and it's really hard

01:26:21.280 to get worked up over Scott Wiener getting yelled at yeah it really is especially because he's never 0.95

01:26:27.320 seen a child, he doesn't want to help trans. I mean, he is fine with genital mutilation, 1.00

01:26:33.900 the life-changing events that happen to minors when they make this decision, in air quotes, 0.76

01:26:39.760 because they can't possibly, to sterilize themselves and eliminate all sexual pleasure

01:26:44.360 before they've even hit puberty, which is what happens when you go from puberty blockers to

01:26:48.960 cross-sex hormones, which he knows, he knows very well. He doesn't care. It's very hard to

01:26:54.820 see him as anything other than a villain. Not for in-your-face confrontations, but, you know,

01:27:00.720 live by the sword. Again, get harassed by the sword. That's what happened to Scott Wiener that

01:27:05.740 day. All right, we're going to take a break. We're going to come back more with Stu Breguier

01:27:08.520 on the opposite side of this. Don't go away. If you are heading into summer without a medical

01:27:13.060 emergency kit, you're taking a risk most people don't even think about until it's too late.

01:27:18.480 Summer colds linger and can turn into sinus infections that last for weeks.

01:27:22.980 Getting sick right before vacation can derail everything.

01:27:25.960 And when you're traveling,

01:27:26.860 finding a doctor and pharmacy can be stressful.

01:29:45.080 Sirius XM 111 and on the Sirius XM app.

01:29:52.280 Stupor Gear, host of Predictable, is back with me now.

01:29:55.640 So Stu, Supergirl has opened at the movie theater well below expectations

01:30:02.860 because its star, Millie Alcock, is as loathsome as the girl who played in Snow White

01:30:10.820 and seems to appreciate women in exactly the same way as that other gal did and is receiving

01:30:19.400 similar backlash. That plus we're over the forced upon us girl boss era. It's not authentic. It's 0.97

01:30:27.960 not organic. We're no longer buying it. Like it's not that women can't be empowered and fierce and

01:30:33.120 all the great things. It's just stuff forcing it on us in the form of like super girl. This woman 1.00

01:30:38.380 looks if she's five foot it's a lot online they say she's five five challenge if she's five one 1.00

01:30:44.120 it's a miracle she's very weirdly small and they want us to believe she's this fierce super no 0.98

01:30:52.000 she was in game of thrones she was very weird looking and she created problems for herself 0.98

01:30:59.040 okay first she was in game of thrones and surely thereafter she gave a vanity fair interview

01:31:03.140 and she said that experience definitely made me aware that simply existing as a woman in that

01:31:09.360 space is something that people comment on. We've become very comfortable having this weird ownership

01:31:14.620 of women's bodies. I can't really stop them. I can only be myself. Okay, you are in light porn. 1.00

01:31:20.980 Game of Thrones is light. It's soft porn. Who does she think she's kidding? I don't remember her being 0.99

01:31:25.760 naked, but literally almost every other woman was. Full frontal nudity and sex scenes that you 1.00

01:31:30.980 couldn't get away with showing on Cinemax these days, but somehow they aired on HBO. Then she

01:31:35.820 goes on and she gets upset because there has been some pushback against her talking about sexism

01:31:44.280 and superheroes. People don't want to hear it. And she said something like, okay, people got so

01:31:51.100 angry. I was like, you're just proving my point. You're proving my point. She added, she was happy

01:31:56.800 to have pissed off the right people, including those who identify as a Christian and a dad.

01:32:03.020 She said, quote, and it's from a lot of people whose profiles have no photo, who are burner

01:32:07.640 accounts or someone's name and then data for Christian, which is hilarious to me.

01:32:14.740 Here's one more sampling of how she sounds while she's giving these interviews. 0.77

01:32:18.540 Sat 37.

01:32:20.600 I have many queer friends.

01:32:22.640 So honestly, I'm kind of on it.

01:32:24.600 And I'm honored that that's happening. But I think because she doesn't live inside the binary

01:32:31.200 of what we think a woman should be, that that is what makes her so special and so exciting and so

01:32:37.440 new. So now the movie is tanking. They expected that they said that they thought it would open

01:32:44.320 at 50 million. It's opening weekend, which they said was already a disappointment. And it didn't

01:32:49.500 even get there. It was 38 million. The movie cost 170 million to make. It got a B minus grade in

01:32:56.800 cinema score. It got a rotten rating from review aggregation over at Rotten Tomatoes. And so neither

01:33:03.860 the critics liked it nor the audience liked it. And she's taken a beating and it's not pulling

01:33:09.880 in money. So you tell me why you think this is all happening. You know, it's she said, oh, well,

01:33:15.180 this is uh it's hilarious that i'm having to deal with well this is hilarious to us like watching

01:33:19.940 this movie flop like this is really what's hilarious because you know she you don't need

01:33:26.320 to go down these roads you don't need to go down these roads the movie cost 178 million dollars

01:33:30.920 or whatever it was to make remember too that's only that's always gonna be split with the theaters

01:33:34.820 to just earn that back you'd need to make it but 350 plus million dollars that doesn't include the

01:33:40.440 marketing which they dumped on top of this as well tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars

01:33:45.640 in marketing this this movie is going to be an absolute catastrophe 50 million would have already 1.00

01:33:51.580 been a catastrophe and and like as much as i want it to be solely about how annoying she is right

01:33:59.600 like and how and how she's going out there and saying all these things i do think that's a big

01:34:03.940 part of it but it's also just like we're a merit-based society at some level it's hard for

01:34:08.980 us to shake that i think the left really wants us to shake it i think that is what you know kind of

01:34:13.660 ties all these conversations we've had today together in that like you know scott wiener is

01:34:17.820 trying to make a merit-based argument i've been super super woke you should give me a pass on this

01:34:21.720 stuff but that's not what it's about the left doesn't believe in merit they believe that you

01:34:26.080 should go see this movie because she's a woman right like that's not how people make decisions 1.00

01:34:31.040 about their entertainment you know if there are movies where women absolutely kick ass and are 1.00

01:34:37.660 great right like zero dark 30 zero dark 30 is an awesome example of that like that is a that's a 1.00

01:34:43.320 great movie another one that i love from the past 10 to 15 years i remember what year it came out

01:34:47.240 is a movie called atomic blonde where she is absolutely kicking everybody's she's a spy it's

01:34:52.540 not a superhero movie but in a way it kind of is right she's doing things that are over the top 1.00

01:34:57.500 that you know a a tiny woman with her strength would probably not be able to do just kicking

01:35:03.200 everybody you know 300 pound guys butts all over the place but it's entertaining and a really well 1.00

01:35:08.940 done movie and even if she came out during the the press for that movie like and was talking

01:35:15.420 about things that were woke it still would probably be a good movie you know supergirl if it

01:35:20.480 was i mean wicked was like this right there's there's some of this woke stuff around wicked

01:35:25.020 i have no interest and did not see wicked to be uh to be clear but it still did a lot of money at

01:35:32.000 the box office you can overcome these things if you put out a good product but often a lot of

01:35:37.780 times it's like an excuse hey we have this really crappy movie with a really crappy script with an

01:35:42.900 actress that people don't really like and it's failed so how do we blame the the audience for

01:35:49.580 that we're not going to take any responsibility ourselves let's blame the average people just

01:35:54.240 like in the haitian situation we were just talking about let's blame them they're racist it's the 0.72

01:35:58.960 Let me give you this. New York Times box office analysts note on Sunday, female led superhero movies have been rejected almost uniformly over the past five years or so, perhaps reflecting a resurgent misogyny among the core fan base, which is largely male.

01:36:17.180 So now now the people who like superhero movies are misogynists if they reject the weird short girl with the very strange look as their latest girl boss and not something like this.

01:36:30.240 Listen to South 35. This is her. 1.00

01:36:32.160 You heard from the fans specifically from the LGBT community about how they've been able to relate to your character.

01:36:37.880 I've just had a few people ask me about about her and about her because it's Pride Month and all that.

01:36:44.280 and I think that she's a really great representation of what a modern woman can be.

01:36:50.460 She can be strong, she can be tough, she can be messy

01:36:53.180 and I love how this film doesn't centre around any sort of love, you know.

01:36:58.480 It doesn't centre around romance or anything like that at all

01:37:01.300 and she is such resilience that I think that that community is a community

01:37:04.720 that is so, so resilient and they can really relate to that in that

01:37:08.880 and I'm really honoured that they can connect with that.

01:37:11.680 okay so okay can't center around a love relationship stew because that would be offensive

01:37:17.760 and obviously disempowering if you are in a love relationship with a man as a woman it's

01:37:23.480 disempowering to your superhero narrative f that at virtually every woman on earth who's straight

01:37:30.500 would love to connect with a man form a love relationship and be buoyed up by it not diminished

01:37:37.380 which is a hollywood weird woke message yeah i mean it's very human right what you're describing

01:37:44.400 is the human experience for almost everyone who's ever lived right that's supposed to be

01:37:49.860 uh pretty understandable and like when you look at something like this right

01:37:54.440 supergirl is not a core character in these worlds i mean i'm not a superhero movie fan but like this

01:38:02.100 not batman or you know superman or you know these are not like supergirl was always sort of a side

01:38:07.780 a side character the to act as even remember that yeah i kind of remember i kind of maybe

01:38:14.660 wonder woman yes wonder woman yes right and wonder woman did hundreds of millions of dollars

01:38:18.620 you know it's just like the the left in hollywood wants this sort of god-given right to be able to

01:38:24.940 churn out crappy superhero movies and collect hundreds of millions of dollars at a whim like

01:38:30.140 I'm sorry. We're stuck giving our money to the government every April. We're stuck doing that.

01:38:37.600 Unfortunately, it's legally required. As of this moment, it is not legally required for me to see

01:38:42.740 your slop that you're just churning out year after year after year. They wound up lucking

01:38:48.600 into this decade and a half run where they could basically put a cape on anything and just collect

01:38:54.760 nine figures it's over it's over put some effort into it make good movies which again i didn't see

01:39:01.580 the superman movie that they just released got decent reviews people seem to have liked it and

01:39:06.280 again they collected hundreds of millions of dollars put the most minor amount of effort into

01:39:12.140 it and i don't know maybe have a conversation before the contract is signed and say look

01:39:17.020 we we want to hire you to for this movie however if you can't just get through the press junket

01:39:24.880 without turning into scott weiner you know just just give us that promise as a business person

01:39:34.820 yes if we want this to be successful i'd love to you know i'm sure i'm sure the studio would

01:39:39.280 have loved to make five supergirl movies i'm sure they would have loved to just cash in over and

01:39:43.880 over and over again and all the you know if they put a good movie together and in addition to that

01:39:48.260 because that's an important component and have a people who's just not going to offend half the

01:39:53.300 audience by being insane you know this is a pretty good business listen to sat 36 one more there's

01:40:00.020 been a lot of discussion online about cara's queerness in the comics was that something that

01:40:05.160 you explored when you were preparing for the wrong it wasn't but in honor of pride month as i'm

01:40:10.500 getting all these questions i don't know i think that what makes this film so beautiful is that

01:40:15.700 it's not centered around a man it's not centered around love it if anything but we'll see i don't

01:40:22.380 really i don't really know but i don't i don't know i don't know she's probably go both ways

01:40:29.020 she'd probably go both ways she's got to let us know that her character is queer

01:40:37.060 And by the way, if you want to make young men love it, pick somebody who's really hot

01:40:42.780 and into men and is telegraphing to the audience like, I like you. 0.95

01:40:48.000 I don't hate your guts, as opposed to this woman who's like, thank God it's not centered 0.94

01:40:52.480 on a man. 1.00

01:40:53.140 And I bet you she's queer. 1.00

01:40:55.820 Yeah, I mean, that would be really these are not like, you know, rocket science level

01:41:02.480 discussions here.

01:41:04.080 You're trying to mass market to a group of people.

01:41:07.160 I mean, comic book movies, superhero movies, you have a largely male audience.

01:41:11.720 If you're going to put someone in there, you know, someone that, forget the word attractive

01:41:15.860 when we're talking about sexuality, just someone who attracts them, right?

01:41:19.720 Someone who is playing into the things that they're interested in.

01:41:23.660 That's all you have to do.

01:41:25.140 The bar is really, really low for this stuff.

01:41:27.880 But, you know, as we've seen with Hollywood over the years, they try to go under it every

01:41:32.360 given opportunity and bashed their head into the bar. There's no reason to do that. Make it easy

01:41:37.160 on yourselves. You look at Gal Gadot. Yes. Okay. I think men are going to like that. And they did.

01:41:44.100 You look at this strange little person with the weird teeth. It's like, and then she's out there

01:41:49.360 lecturing them on how she hates male centered relationships. And this character may be queer 0.78

01:41:54.020 and a girl boss. What did they think was going to happen? They should have contacted Stu Braguer. 0.99

01:41:59.540 He would have told them it's predictable. Great to see you, my friend. We're back tomorrow with

01:42:05.180 those two remaining major SCOTUS cases. We'll see you then. Thanks for listening to The Megan
