Ep. 1083 - Racists, Satanists, And Incompetents Hold Democrat Power


Summary

A California man uses a portable generator to keep his electric car running, and the rest of the country has to rely on fossil fuels to keep the lights on. What does that tell us about the state of liberalism? And what does it say about the White House?

00:00:30.000 I have found it.
00:00:31.560 I have found the single most perfect depiction of liberalism ever.
00:00:37.880 Someday this photo will hang in a museum.
00:00:41.300 The title will be Liberalism, year 2022, colorized.
00:00:46.640 The photo is going around the internet right now.
00:00:49.320 It's of a California man charging his electric car
00:00:53.340 with a portable gas-powered electricity generator.
00:00:57.920 It's a depiction of a real thing.
00:01:00.200 In a real time and place.
00:01:02.500 California actually cannot sustain its power grid right now
00:01:05.880 because of the state's stupid left-wing energy policies.
00:01:08.920 The only way that it has any hope of making it through
00:01:11.340 is by begging residents to stop using power.
00:01:14.560 But this is also a depiction of a broader concept.
00:01:19.400 The libs upending tradition, overturning society, rejecting reality,
00:01:23.980 only to watch as their crazy schemes, all of which relied on tradition and reality,
00:01:30.220 collapse under their own weight, their own instability.
00:01:33.500 And then to be forced to return to the tried and true old ways,
00:01:38.280 except that they have to return to them in the least efficient ways possible.
00:01:42.660 You especially see this with, you know, religion and kind of traditional morality.
00:01:47.800 That's what all of liberalism rests on.
00:01:49.460 Then they try to get rid of that.
00:01:50.740 And then the edifice falls apart.
00:01:52.120 And then they have to try to reconstruct religion and morality.
00:01:54.880 It doesn't really work.
00:01:55.640 You look at the engine.
00:01:56.820 Gas and diesel-powered car engines have very sophisticated emission control technology.
00:02:03.740 Portable electric generators, generally speaking, do not.
00:02:07.240 They're filthy.
00:02:08.480 The whole thing is, in fact, much worse for the environment than any of the normal cars that normal
00:02:13.680 people drive.
00:02:15.040 Pretty soon, this is an idea I have.
00:02:17.100 Pretty soon, maybe the libs will figure out that the whole thing will move more smoothly
00:02:21.440 and efficiently if they just take that portable generator that they've got and put it inside the car.
00:02:29.040 And maybe they could put it underneath the hood of the car.
00:02:31.800 And then they can actually take it with them on their drives.
00:02:36.420 And they don't need to stop for an hour to recharge the car at the special port.
00:02:40.660 They can actually just kind of pull over at like a station, at a station that has gas at it.
00:02:47.520 And then they refill the generators with gasoline.
00:02:50.440 And then that will charge their car for the rest of the ride.
00:02:54.440 That is my advice.
00:02:55.880 Really high-tech advice to all of our listeners in California.
00:02:58.720 I will not be following that advice myself because I fled that liberal wasteland.
00:03:05.200 And now I live in Tennessee, which, despite having much hotter summers, is, believe it or not,
00:03:10.680 able to keep the power grid running just fine.
00:03:13.920 What a difference good government and sane politics can make.
00:03:18.040 I'm Michael Knowles.
00:03:19.020 This is The Michael Knowles Show.
00:03:19.940 Welcome back to the show.
00:03:28.420 My favorite comment yesterday is from Frank S., who says,
00:03:31.120 if anyone that votes against your party is extremist, then you don't have a two-party system.
00:03:35.540 Yes, that's true.
00:03:36.400 In our democracy, right, we have two parties.
00:03:39.080 But if you vote for the other party, you're evil and a threat to democracy.
00:03:42.440 I don't think you have a democracy anymore then.
00:03:44.920 I think when you have one party rule, isn't that totalitarian, something like that.
00:03:50.760 Let's check in on the state of liberalism.
00:03:52.480 We've got portable electricity generators powering the electric cars with fossil fuels in California.
00:03:59.760 What do we think in the White House?
00:04:01.220 What is the state of liberalism right now from its most prominent spokesman?
00:04:04.980 You know how much, you know how much we're going to do with the deficit this year?
00:04:09.940 One trillion, five hundred thousand.
00:04:12.940 One trillion, five hundred thousand.
00:04:16.300 Okay, that is the state of things.
00:04:23.080 And I think that is probably the most coherent argument that you could possibly give in defense
00:04:28.840 of the Biden administration's policies and of liberalism generally.
00:04:33.380 That's it.
00:04:33.820 Thank you, Mr. President, for selling more copies of my national bestselling book,
00:04:39.300 Reasons to Vote for Democrats, a comprehensive guide, 260 blank pages.
00:04:43.280 There's really not much of an argument here. The leader of the free world, allegedly,
00:04:50.280 cannot speak, cannot make an argument for these policies. Other people are doing the talking
00:04:55.400 for him. Here is one of the people who is leading a major initiative for the Biden White House.
00:05:01.800 This would be Joe Biden's new monkeypox czar.
00:05:05.060 This virus transmits through very close skin to skin physical contact, often in the setting of
00:05:10.420 sexual exposure. But there are other mechanisms for its transmission, including if you touch
00:05:15.700 objects that individuals who've had monkeypox touch or if you have prolonged exposure to
00:05:21.640 respiratory droplets. With that said, signaling to people who are in the gay, bisexual, other men
00:05:27.080 who have sex with men communities and also transgender people who have sex with men,
00:05:30.720 that it's really important to have awareness that it's circulating in the community is really a
00:05:34.700 critical part of the messaging while not generating, you know, inordinate concern and really focusing
00:05:40.320 on the infection as linked to an identity. So it's just an infection. It's not linked to an identity.
00:05:45.460 It just happens to be in the social network.
00:05:47.040 I think it was easier to understand the rat-a-doo-ba-da-ba-da-da-da, because I don't have any
00:05:53.580 idea what that guy just said. He said, well, you know, you understand that the spread of the virus
00:05:58.380 of the monkeypox is primarily among the gay and the bisexual and the other men have, I'm not,
00:06:02.540 he actually said that, the other men having sex with men community and also the transgender
00:06:05.700 community. But there shouldn't be a stigma associated with that because it's not a virus that has an
00:06:09.920 identity, but it is a virus that spreads among a certain identity. That man's name is Dimitri
00:06:18.400 Daskalakis. He is the new White House monkeypox coordinator. And now that he has been elevated
00:06:27.780 to this role, there is a photo clearly from a professional photo shoot that this man signed up
00:06:33.360 for. This wasn't some gotcha paparazzi camera. This is something that this man went out dressed up
00:06:38.440 for and got these photos taken. And it's of him wearing a kind of slick looking suit with his
00:06:43.220 shirt unbuttoned all the way, wearing a leather harness on his chest that has a pentagram, the
00:06:48.760 symbol of Satan right in the center of it. So we've got a, we've got a satanic leather fetishist
00:06:57.720 who is now running the White House monkeypox policy. We've got over at the energy department,
00:07:03.140 we have a leather doggy fetishist who's vaguely transgender, I think. His name is Sam Brinton.
00:07:12.020 And then over at the health department, the assistant secretary of health is a man who thinks
00:07:17.200 that he is a woman named Richard Levine, who he thinks he's a woman named Rachel Levine. And he
00:07:23.100 believes that we need to put all of the little kids who are sexually confused onto cross, cross-sex
00:07:29.400 hormones. This, this all coming to light after Joe Biden gives his red speech where he talks about
00:07:37.720 the battle for the soul of the nation at night in the dark in front of this very ominous looking red
00:07:43.680 light where he calls half the country evil. I'm starting to think Joe Biden might be right. I think
00:07:49.580 we might be in a battle for the soul of the nation. Now, Joe Biden hasn't specified which side he's on
00:07:57.460 in that battle for the soul of the nation. But, you know, they say that personnel is policy. And if
00:08:03.500 that is the case, then the policy of the Biden administration doesn't seem to be on the good
00:08:08.980 side of that battle, okay? When your prominent senior advisors are openly wearing symbols of Satan
00:08:18.780 and leading, leading, leading human beings around by dog collars and sort of engaging in weird, sadistic
00:08:27.640 sexual exploits and then trying to trans the kids and mutilate their bodies and pump them full of
00:08:32.660 chemicals. I think you might be the baddie. You might be the baddies on the bad side of this.
00:08:39.620 This is a fight for the soul of the nation. And it's not just in the crazy liberal cities and it's
00:08:45.400 not just in Washington, D.C. Tennessee Tech. Tennessee Tech was just caught hosting a show.
00:08:55.000 This was at their backdoor playhouse. I assume pun very much intended. This was found by Landon
00:09:01.880 Starbuck. It was a drag show specifically for all ages mocking Christianity. Take a listen.
00:09:10.840 So you see the guy walks out dressed up like a Christian monk.
00:09:23.440 He's dropping dollar bills. Get it, gay men. Not amen, but gay men.
00:09:31.500 And then he sings, take me to church. He mocks the crucifix. He makes the sign of the cross
00:09:35.740 while he's stripping, doing this kind of drag strip show. Wiggling, jiggling, taking off the
00:09:44.820 habit. And he's also wearing some kind of weird leather thing. I don't know what it is with
00:09:49.160 the leather thing. And then taking money from all of the other very confused people who are
00:09:57.480 in the audience. This is all a reminder that when you really get down to the bottom of what politics
00:10:07.600 is about, it is all about God. I use the quote on this show very often from Cardinal Manning that all
00:10:14.220 politics, all human conflict is ultimately theological. And we sometimes forget that.
00:10:19.100 We hear people say, actually, politics is about the battle between liberty and equality.
00:10:23.400 Actually, no, politics is fundamentally the battle between individualism and collectivism.
00:10:29.760 No, actually, politics is the battle between, you know what it is? It's a little more basic than all
00:10:35.840 of that. Politics is a fight between good and bad. And we've known this going back to ancient Greece.
00:10:45.320 And we've known this going back to all those good old Uncle Aristotle and Socrates and Plato,
00:10:51.000 all the way up through antiquity, through the Middle Ages. In the modern era, because we want
00:10:56.240 to deny the existence of God and the fact that our lives are sustained, their existence itself is
00:11:02.820 sustained by God, we want to deny that and make everything sound really secular and clinical. So we
00:11:07.200 say, no, it's actually about this ideological concept versus this one. No, it's not. It's just about
00:11:11.980 good and bad. And that's why it keeps coming down to even our enlightened, modern, atheistic age.
00:11:17.280 It's why it keeps coming down to mocking Christianity. It's why it keeps coming down.
00:11:22.380 It's why a senior leader in the Biden administration is wearing overt satanic symbols.
00:11:27.860 Okay, it's not just because of some super high level double, triple irony from the atheistic,
00:11:35.960 materialistic. No, it's something a little more basic. It's because all of this human conflict is
00:11:41.320 coming down to basic questions of good versus evil. It's a battle for the soul of the nation.
00:11:47.060 Which side are you on? If we want to fix the country, we're going to need to get our hands
00:11:52.960 dirty, okay? We're going to need to do some things for ourselves. When you want to, for instance,
00:11:57.120 fix your car, you got to check out Rock Auto. Right now, head on over to rockauto.com. No one

00:13:02.500 that super easy-to-navigate catalog and then type in Knolls in their How Did You Hear About Us box
00:13:06.960 so they know that we sent you. Speaking of clear lines, Whoopi Goldberg is defending
00:13:14.780 Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, after Karine Jean-Pierre got caught in flagrant
00:13:20.040 hypocrisy because she said that anyone who denies elections, the Republicans who have raised any
00:13:27.100 questions about the 2020 election, they are fascists. That's the definition of fascism.
00:13:31.440 And then Peter Doocy, the White House reporter, points out, he says, wait a second, Karine Jean-Pierre,
00:13:36.860 you said that the 2016 and the 2018 elections were stolen. So by that definition, are you a fascist?
00:13:42.840 And she said, no, no, no, it's different. It's different when I do it because I'm a Democrat.
00:13:45.940 Well, Whoopi Goldberg is defending that line of argument.
00:13:49.040 Let's also remember that she was part of moveon.org. She was not an elected official.
00:13:55.660 She was she was doing her part as an American citizen, saying how she felt about an election,
00:14:02.340 whether you like it or not. Everybody talks about everybody has the right freedom of speech.
00:14:06.940 So that's the difference. Let's discuss, you know, kind of some of the folks that,
00:14:11.880 you know, are in office now who have denied that that.
00:14:18.660 That my goodness, that Biden is president. I mean, it's just, you know, I get so frustrated
00:14:26.340 because I think this is not apples and oranges. This is apples and basketballs.
00:14:30.940 Yeah.
00:14:31.840 She almost gives up at the end. Did you know when she when even Whoopi Goldberg
00:14:36.860 realizes, gosh, the argument I'm making just doesn't make any sense at all.
00:14:42.240 Well, gosh, maybe she pauses. She almost gives up. And then she just kind of uses this throwaway
00:14:48.160 zinger line and tries to move on. So it's an apples and oranges. It's apples and basketballs. How?
00:14:54.740 Corrine Jean-Pierre and Joe Biden said that any American who questions the 2020 election is a fascist.
00:15:02.440 Then it turned out Corrine Jean-Pierre questioned the 20, the 2016, 2018 elections.
00:15:07.740 Then Whoopi Goldberg said, no, no, she was a private citizen. Yeah, I know Joe Biden
00:15:11.600 and Corrine Jean-Pierre said that private citizens, not it wasn't just Donald Trump.
00:15:16.980 It's Trump's supporters who are private citizens who questioned the 2020 election are fascists.
00:15:21.640 So by that standard, Corrine Jean-Pierre and Joe Biden are fascists.
00:15:26.400 That's a stupid definition, but by their own definition, they are fascists.
00:15:29.220 She said, no, no, but it's, it's, it's different because they have freedom of speech.
00:15:35.520 Right. Don't the Trump supporters also have freedom of speech.
00:15:38.160 And also we're not talking about whether they have the freedom of speech.
00:15:40.340 We're talking about the substance of their speech.
00:15:42.680 And the Biden standard is that they're fascists, but now you're denying that. And you say,
00:15:47.480 no, it's different. It's, and she, when she gets to that point at the end,
00:15:50.260 she's at least being honest, she's being incoherent, but she's being honest. She's saying,
00:15:53.560 look, it's, it's not apples and oranges. It's apples and basketballs.
00:15:57.500 When Republicans and Democrats do the exact same thing, actually, if anything, the Democrats did so
00:16:04.060 more egregiously and more consistently, it's apples and basketballs because the Republicans and the
00:16:12.940 Democrats are different because the Republicans and the Democrats get treated differently because
00:16:16.840 there are two tiers of justice in America because there were just one, one group gets to do whatever
00:16:21.920 it wants. The other group can't do the very same thing. That's what she's saying. She's admitting the
00:16:27.200 double standard and she's doubling down on the double standard. And she's saying it's a good
00:16:31.640 thing. How are Republicans responding to these kinds of blatant, shameless attacks?
00:16:39.560 Here's how the RNC yesterday released an ad. They've got Joe Biden. Now you've got the worst
00:16:44.300 economy in recent history. You've got 40 year high inflation. You've got the first major war in
00:16:48.820 Europe. You've got record high numbers of foreign nationals pouring across the border. You've got crime
00:16:53.540 spiking throughout the cities. You got the average American life expectancy decreasing. You got the
00:16:57.540 country is in absolute shambles. And here's how they nailed Joe Biden. They say that he's, he wasn't
00:17:04.320 as much of a civil rights leader as he said he was. When I marched in the civil rights movement,
00:17:10.360 I did not march with the 12 point program. I marched with tens of thousands of others to change
00:17:16.700 attitudes. And we changed attitudes. He lied to voters, according to the New York Times,
00:17:22.840 quoting aides of Biden's about having marched in the civil rights movement.
00:17:26.840 I got involved in the civil rights movement. I got involved in desegregated movie theaters.
00:17:30.920 They organized voter registration drives. From the time I got involved as a high school kid in the
00:17:36.120 civil rights movement. But I was a kid involved in the civil rights movement, desegregated restaurants
00:17:40.460 and movie theaters in my state. From the time I got involved as a kid in the civil rights movement.
00:17:44.640 Quote, more than once, advisors had gently reminded Mr. Biden of the problem with this formulation.
00:17:49.640 He had not actually marched during the civil rights movement. And more than once,
00:17:53.720 Mr. Biden assured them that he understood and kept telling the story anyway. That is really, really weird.
00:18:02.100 I have one question.
00:18:05.560 Who is this ad going to convince? Who is this ad supposed to persuade? What is this ad supposed to
00:18:12.320 do? The point of the ad is Joe Biden is a liar, which we've known. First of all, most politicians are
00:18:18.140 liars. And we've, we've, we've known that about Joe Biden since he had to drop out of the 1988
00:18:22.300 presidential contest for lying. So, okay, Joe Biden's a liar. So what? Is this, this is supposed to
00:18:31.500 appeal to the Democrats who, who support Biden only because they thought he was more of a civil rights
00:18:41.060 leader than he is, that this is supposed to convince the Republicans who, who, what's the
00:18:48.060 point of the, the point of the ad is the point of the ad is the same stupid line that Republicans
00:18:54.440 trot out and they think it's going to work and they think it's clever and it never works.
00:18:59.060 The Democrats you see are the real racists. You see the Democrats, they call us racists,
00:19:05.840 but they're the real racists and they pretend to have a really good record on race, but they actually
00:19:11.160 don't have a really good record on race. See, see, did we win any votes from that? Cause we never
00:19:17.280 have before ever, but there are the real racists. The Democrats who use this term racism, they've
00:19:23.800 redefined this term. They've, they've made this the worst thing that you could possibly be called
00:19:27.360 in America as a racist. And they just use it indiscriminately against Republicans with absolutely
00:19:31.900 no basis in any of the Republicans actions. They just use it and it frames the whole argument.
00:19:39.580 And now the best that the Republicans muster is no, you are. That's not going to work. That's not
00:19:45.180 going to work. Yes. The Democrats are the real racists. They know that there was a, a Senate
00:19:51.840 candidate, a Democrat in I think South Carolina. Yeah. Uh, Christy Matthews. She just caught,
00:19:58.940 got caught on camera with Project Veritas, uh, explaining to what she thought was a sort of
00:20:04.660 private person in a private conversation that, uh, everyone needs to treat white people like SHIT.
00:20:13.080 My district is heavily Republican and it's heavily white. I'm not a stranger to white people. I'm a
00:20:18.560 mostly white town. Yeah. And let me tell you one thing. You got to know who he's ever. Like,
00:20:22.740 you got to treat them like SHIT. Like, I mean, that's the only way they respect you. Yeah. No.
00:20:28.460 I, I, I keep them right here. I'm in my thumb. Yeah. Like, that's where I keep them. Like,
00:20:32.940 you have to. Yeah. Otherwise they get out of control like his. Trust me. So, you know,
00:20:39.200 like for me, all these other people are tiptoeing around them and I'm like, no, that's some white
00:20:43.920 SHIT. I ain't doing that. Yeah. They'd be like, well, I'm just going to say some white SHIT. Yeah.
00:20:48.460 And that was my problem with Bernie because he was talking to an all black crowd and he was afraid
00:20:52.400 to say black SHIT. I said, if I'm talking to an all black crowd, I'm going to say black SHIT. Yeah.
00:20:55.920 And treat those white people like SHIT.
00:21:03.960 What's the takeaway here? Here's what the takeaway is not. This is the one thing that the takeaway is
00:21:09.000 not. The takeaway is not. Golly, could you imagine if it were a white person saying this about a black
00:21:15.560 person? Golly, could you imagine if the roles were reversed? Gosh, what would the media be saying then?
00:21:22.720 It's so hypocritical. Uh-huh. They know that. They know. Wow. They know. They don't care. That's
00:21:31.020 the point. That's the point. My takeaway is not, could you imagine if? No. My takeaway here is not
00:21:37.840 that we need to point out the hypocrisy constantly. That's going to fall on deaf ears. It's not going to
00:21:42.340 persuade anybody. The takeaway is we need to change the game entirely. The game of who is the bigger
00:21:50.400 racist is a losing game because the whole thing was established through a Democrat lens. There is no
00:21:57.500 way to win it. They have just defined racism as anything Republicans do and not anything that
00:22:03.600 Democrats do. Okay. The key here for Republicans and independents and normal people is just don't
00:22:10.780 take the bait. When they call you a racist, just say, okay, all right, whatever, whatever. When a
00:22:17.800 liberal calls you a racist, you know, you've won the argument. There was a line that when I was a
00:22:22.080 student, I got to meet Ann Coulter. She came to my college and she, that line really stuck with me.
00:22:26.580 She mentioned that she said when a liberal, because we were all complaining, we said the liberals on campus,
00:22:29.960 they're calling us racists, but we're not racists. We're good people. She said, don't, come on,
00:22:34.100 don't worry about that. When a liberal calls you a racist, you know, you've won the argument. Just
00:22:37.240 move on. Don't give it any air. Say, okay, whatever. There they go again. That's the Ronald
00:22:42.060 Reagan line about Jimmy Carter. Okay, there they go again. Everything's racist. Okay, move on. Let's
00:22:47.760 talk about the economy. Let's talk about illegal immigration. Let's talk about them transing the kids.
00:22:52.060 Let's talk about the satanic leather daddy in the White House right now. Let's talk about the fight for
00:22:55.960 the soul of our nation. You can go babble about racism or whatever Joe Biden said. That's fine.
00:23:02.520 None of that means anything. We're going to talk about stuff that matters. And we're going to look

00:24:33.180 a big cause of celebration among the libs. There's a new conservative prime minister in the UK.
00:24:40.480 And when I say conservative, the Tories, the UK conservatives, they're really more like American
00:24:48.080 Democrats. And then the left in the UK is much further left, even than we're seeing in the
00:24:52.080 mainstream in America right now. So the conservative party has just elected this lady, Liz Truss.
00:24:59.580 And here's the headline. Liz Truss's cabinet is the UK's first without a white man in any of the top
00:25:07.760 offices. And my reaction to that, all the libs are saying, this is great. This is wonderful. This
00:25:12.740 is such a big win for justice and equality and diversity. And my reaction was, that's kind of
00:25:19.640 weird, isn't it? It's because England, England is a country of the English. And the English are
00:25:29.420 definitely very white. They are some of the whitest people on earth. And so isn't it kind of weird?
00:25:36.440 And men, generally speaking, usually are involved in politics. Historically speaking, men are most of
00:25:45.820 the people involved in politics. So it's just kind of weird that in England, a country of extremely
00:25:51.600 white people, you wouldn't have even a single white guy in any of the big government positions.
00:25:58.560 And that kind of, I'm not saying it's necessarily the worst thing in the world. I'm just saying,
00:26:03.400 isn't that, it's weird. It's not the sort of thing that I, certainly not something I would celebrate.
00:26:09.780 The only reason you would celebrate this is if you think white men are bad, which is
00:26:16.960 what the culture says right now. The culture said when it comes right down to it,
00:26:22.000 beyond all the really super clever arguments that we all try to make,
00:26:26.060 and beyond all the Dems are the real racists and all that stuff.
00:26:30.860 There is a sense in the culture that white people broadly, white men in particular,
00:26:36.500 but white people broadly are just bad. And white people are the only group that you are,
00:26:42.400 it is socially acceptable to insult or discriminate against, that you can legally discriminate against
00:26:47.740 Asians, sometimes bear the brunt of it too in university admissions. But white people,
00:26:52.520 you can discriminate against them through affirmative action. And just in the culture,
00:26:56.120 it's the only racial group that you're allowed to mock and actually encouraged to mock.
00:27:01.640 I think that seems kind of wrong, doesn't it? And there's nothing that the white people can do about
00:27:05.960 it because it has nothing to do with the actions that the white people take. The culture has just said
00:27:13.200 white people are bad. A great example of this is when white people move neighborhoods. When white people
00:27:20.020 move into a black neighborhood, that is bad because that's gentrification. But when white people move
00:27:26.800 out of a black neighborhood, that is also bad because that's white flight. So there is nothing
00:27:32.760 the white people can do that would not be bad. And that's because the goodness or badness of it has
00:27:38.780 nothing to do with the actions. It has nothing to do with which neighborhoods you move to or from.
00:27:42.520 It just has to do with the white people doing it. Because the white people are doing it,
00:27:47.200 according to the culture, it has to be bad because the white people are bad. You see this when if
00:27:52.160 white people adopt some aspect of another culture. Let's say they, I don't know, they eat tacos or
00:27:58.620 something. They wear certain aspects of clothing. That is bad because that's cultural appropriation.
00:28:04.380 They're not allowed to do that. But if white people don't adopt aspects of other people's cultures,
00:28:10.160 that is also bad. That's called cultural erasure. That's called Eurocentric cultural chauvinism or
00:28:18.760 something. And that's bad too. Why is it bad? Because it has nothing to do with the tacos and
00:28:22.580 it has nothing to do with the clothing. It has everything to do with white people doing it.
00:28:25.220 Whatever the white people do is defined as bad. This is what you're seeing reflected right now
00:28:30.040 in the Democrats and the Republicans on the issues of so-called election denial or political violence.
00:28:35.240 When the Democrats deny many elections going back at least 22 years now to the 2000 presidential
00:28:42.180 election and increasing in recent years, 2016, Hillary hasn't really conceded that race. She
00:28:46.800 still says that it was a stolen election. Stacey Abrams hasn't really conceded at all the 2018
00:28:51.920 Georgia-Gubin-Troyal race. She still says it was a stolen election. Well, it doesn't matter.
00:28:56.780 That's fine. That's good. When the left burns the country down for eight months with BLM and Antifa,
00:29:00.840 that's fine. That political violence is fine. It's not even violence. It's mostly peaceful.
00:29:06.760 But when any Republican suggests that, hey, maybe it's a little weird that they changed all the
00:29:12.320 election rules radically, unlike anything we've ever seen right before the 2020 presidential election,
00:29:18.400 maybe that's a little weird. Maybe that raises questions. When some grandmas from the Midwest show
00:29:24.500 up to the Capitol Rotunda and in many cases are let in by police on January 6th, that's considered the
00:29:30.780 worst violent insurrection in American history. That was almost a coup d'etat.
00:29:35.280 Why? It has nothing to do with questioning elections. It has nothing to do with even
00:29:40.640 political violence. It has everything to do with who does it. When the Democrats do anything,
00:29:47.360 it's good. When the Republicans do anything, it's bad. Democrats could, I was trying to think of an
00:29:53.680 example that would be really egregious that were hypothetical, but I'll use a real one. Democrats could
00:29:58.860 could wear satanic symbols in leather harnesses in their professional headshots. That would be
00:30:07.660 considered good. A Republican could help a little old lady cross the street. That would be considered
00:30:11.640 an act of evil because of who they are. So what's the takeaway from that? You've got to tune out the
00:30:18.640 noise. You know, there are a number of Republicans who are very eager to hand it to the liberals
00:30:25.720 to grant certain premises. Well, you know, actually the Democrats have a point when they say that the
00:30:32.600 horn hat guy got a little out of control. Actually, you know, Trump shouldn't have used this certain
00:30:38.000 kind of rhetoric. No, they don't. They don't have a point. You don't have to hand it to them.
00:30:43.800 Actually, the whole argument is disingenuous. No, no one on the Democrat side cares about racism.
00:30:50.620 None of them care about political violence. None of them care about questioning elections.
00:30:56.840 They just want to beat you. They just don't want you to do anything that will give you an
00:31:04.400 advantage. You do not have to take any of that stuff seriously. You want to see a great example of
00:31:09.060 this? Also from the Washington Post, Pravda on the Potomac. Washington Post now has an exclusive
00:31:14.780 article on, on what kind of material was seized at Donald Trump's home. Because going back 50 years
00:31:22.280 now, the Washington Post always gets the leaks out of the intelligence community. And so the
00:31:27.900 Washington Post is reporting. They said, you, you MAGA Republicans, you all said that Trump didn't have
00:31:34.560 any dangerous material at Mar-a-Lago that it could, you know, that was dangerous for him to have. It was
00:31:39.120 not secure. It could have gotten into the wrong hands. Well, we now know that material on foreign
00:31:45.460 nations' nuclear capabilities was seized at Mar-a-Lago. Some seized documents were so closely
00:31:53.960 held, only the president, a cabinet level or near cabinet level official, could authorize others to
00:32:00.420 know. And by the way, it's kind of funny that they have that as the sub headline there, because
00:32:05.720 it undercuts their whole argument, because Donald Trump was the president. He did have
00:32:10.040 ultimate declassification authority. And so it's, it is just simply an absurdity to claim that a
00:32:16.180 president or former president, for that matter, mishandled classified information. It is not
00:32:20.940 possible for a president or ex-president to mishandle classified information.
00:32:25.660 The very fact that he has been the president precludes that. But furthermore, the whole article is a
00:32:33.200 cell phone. Because the, the insinuation here is that it was really irresponsible, maybe illegal,
00:32:39.220 but certainly irresponsible for Trump to have this material at Mar-a-Lago because he had it there.
00:32:44.580 By golly, it was so unsecure. It could have leaked to the press. Oh, oh, wait, hold on. So it,
00:32:53.600 when the material was in Trump's home with the padlock on the door, no one heard about it.
00:32:58.720 But, but then the minute that the FBI took it, that's when it all leaked. Sounds like we should
00:33:04.320 send all the classified information to Mar-a-Lago. Sounds like it's way safer there than it is in
00:33:08.780 the hands of the FBI. But furthermore, we're being told now that this, this material at Mar-a-Lago is
00:33:14.200 so, so hyper, super duper sensitive. No one should be able to even know that it exists. And that's why
00:33:20.080 we're going to publish a whole article in the Washington Post about it. Now, in fairness, very few
00:33:24.820 people read the Washington Post anymore. I only read it to make fun of it sometimes. So it's true.
00:33:28.960 I guess it's probably safe being printed in the Washington Post because no one subscribes.
00:33:33.740 But doesn't that undercut the, if this is so super duper sensitive and Trump is such a
00:33:37.580 terrible person for, for endangering it, you know, and, and risking its release,
00:33:43.460 shouldn't we not be publishing it in newspapers? Seems, it's just all seems so disingenuous
00:33:49.060 to me. Speaking of which, speaking of regime propaganda media, we have in GQ just a delightfully
00:34:00.260 absurd profile of AOC, who they're trying to set up to be a future presidential candidate.
00:34:08.520 Here are just some highlights from it. She says, people ask me questions about the future. And
00:34:13.680 realistically, I can't even tell you if I'm going to be alive in September. And that weighs very
00:34:18.600 heavily on me. And it's not just the right wing. Misogyny transcends political ideology,
00:34:24.120 left, right, center. This grip of patriarchy affects all of us, not just women, men, as I
00:34:30.740 mentioned before, but also ideologically, there's an extraordinary lack of self-awareness in so many
00:34:36.860 places. And that, that might be the truest thing she's ever said. There is an extraordinary lack of
00:34:42.860 self-awareness. I'm pleased to report what day is it. It's September 8th. We are now more than a week
00:34:48.400 into September. AOC has survived. She is alive. Good. I'm glad you could make it, AOC. What did
00:34:55.740 she even mean by that? I don't even know if I'll be alive. It's like when she said, I was afraid I
00:34:59.780 was going to be raped and murdered on January 6th. Meanwhile, she wasn't even in the same building.
00:35:03.420 She was down the street from where the very scary Midwestern grandmothers were, where the Florida dad
00:35:10.600 sipping a Coors Light in the rotunda. Gosh golly, could you imagine? There is an extraordinary
00:35:16.780 lack of self-awareness. There is an extraordinary lack of self-awareness, but it doesn't seem to
00:35:21.100 harm her. Actually, later on in the profile, GQ asks her outright, do you think that you can be
00:35:28.420 president? And, and the fear that AOC has, the, the little hesitation that she has to be president
00:35:35.940 is the scariest thing of all. Now, while radical gender ideologues decry the harms of single-sex
00:35:43.000 bathrooms and comedy specials and dead named celebrities, also known as just named celebrities,
00:35:49.440 kids are the ones suffering. Recently, the FDA issued a warning that prescribed puberty blockers,
00:35:53.880 the ones that transgender activists claim are harmless and reversible, can actually cause vision
00:35:58.740 loss and brain swelling and all the things that we all knew intuitively. The experimentation on
00:36:04.040 children has got to end. To fight back, we need to expose and defend the truth, just as my pal
00:36:09.260 Matt Walsh has done in his breakout documentary, What is a Woman? With over 5,000 audience ratings
00:36:13.940 on Rotten Tomatoes, What is a Woman is pushing back against the left's dangerous narratives.
00:36:18.780 Help us keep the momentum up by watching and sharing the film at whatisawoman.com.
00:36:23.920 That is whatisawoman.com. Head on over there today.
00:36:27.620 In this AOC profile in GQ, she was asked, are you going to run for president? Do you think you
00:36:36.300 could be president? She says, yeah, maybe. But here's her holdup. She says, could Obama have
00:36:42.360 gotten elected without the kind of financial support that he had? She opposes Wall Street. Maybe that'll
00:36:48.060 hold her up. Then she goes further. She goes, I don't know. They say, even if she theoretically were
00:36:53.720 to become president, then what? She'd face a system from the Senate to the Supreme Court,
00:36:58.980 both empowered and inclined to thwart her most sweeping ambitions. There are still plenty of
00:37:05.720 limitations, she said, playing out that hypothetical. It's tough. It's really tough. So what's tough?
00:37:12.840 She's saying there are all these limitations, all these impediments, but she's not just talking about
00:37:17.660 corruption. She's not just talking about popularity. She's not just talking about the big banks and the
00:37:23.580 entrenched interests. The big impediment to her sweeping presidential plans that they are describing
00:37:32.020 is our system of government. They're saying that the separation of powers and system of checks and
00:37:40.960 balances is the big impediment. It's tough. It's really tough. I've got to deal with a court. I have
00:37:46.860 to listen to the legislature. I'll have to follow the constitution. And that might impede me from doing
00:37:53.440 what I want to do. What do they want to do? They want to upend the country. The country to them is
00:38:00.180 bad. That's their starting point. It's not that they researched the history of slavery and they
00:38:06.600 discovered America's bad. But by that model, every country in the world is bad. And by the measure of
00:38:11.960 slavery, America is the least bad country ever. It's not that they looked at the interactions between
00:38:18.120 the European settlers and the Native Americans and determined, therefore, that America's bad.
00:38:22.760 It's not that they, no, they started with the premise that America is bad.
00:38:27.260 Okay. And then they formulate arguments, usually specious arguments, to back up that argument. But
00:38:32.560 it begins with an antipathy for the country, which they want to upend. They want to upend it
00:38:37.140 fundamentally. That's when Barack Obama said, we're about to fundamentally transform America. He is
00:38:43.200 expressing a hatred for the country because you don't want to fundamentally transform things that
00:38:48.140 you love. When AOC says, the reason I might not run for president is I'd have to deal with that
00:38:53.420 awful constitution. And I'm not sure I'd be capable of upending the whole system of government.
00:38:57.260 That expresses a hatred for the country and the form of politics that we have here.
00:39:02.840 Her problem is America. And she needs to overcome America to follow her, to achieve her political
00:39:10.580 ambitions. Speaking of the judiciary, putting good constraints on demagogues, there's a great
00:39:17.040 ruling just came out of a U.S. district court. U.S. district judge Reed O'Connor in Texas has just
00:39:22.880 ruled that a new rule requiring employers to provide coverage for drugs that are called PrEP drugs
00:39:31.060 violates the religious rights of employers under federal law, under the RFRA rule, the Religious
00:39:38.180 Freedom Restoration Act. This was totally the correct decision. Why was it the correct decision
00:39:42.360 though? Because PrEP drugs are drugs that are taken pretty much exclusively by promiscuous homosexual
00:39:48.500 men to prevent them from contracting AIDS. The point of the PrEP drugs, they're apparently very
00:39:53.900 effective drugs, is if you take them before you engage in risky activities, you are at a greatly,
00:40:01.320 greatly reduced chance of contracting AIDS, like 99% reduced chance of contracting AIDS. So then the
00:40:06.880 question is, who is at risk of contracting AIDS? And the answer to that is overwhelmingly. I'm going
00:40:12.820 to use the most conservative numbers possible here. Two-thirds to three-quarters of the people who get
00:40:19.540 AIDS are gay men. That's where the spread is. And then you've also got intravenous drug users, and then
00:40:26.880 you've also got people who unwittingly have sex with gay men. And it's not just gay men. It's not men
00:40:35.700 that just identify as gay. Well, it's gay men, but it's men who might say, no, I'm not a gay man. I'm,
00:40:40.780 as that monkeypox coordinator was saying earlier, I'm just a member of the men who have sex with other
00:40:44.640 men community, which is somehow different than the gay community or the bisexual community or the
00:40:50.460 whatever. But it's all kind of the same stuff. That's how you get AIDS. Okay? And so the question
00:40:57.260 is, the question is not, should gay guys take this drug? It seems like if you're going to engage in
00:41:03.380 these activities, this is probably going to help prevent you from contracting this virus that spreads
00:41:08.520 almost uniquely among, among people who have sex with, among men who have sex with other men.
00:41:14.840 The question is, should employers be required to pay for this drug? Should, let's say, I don't know,
00:41:22.780 a Catholic school. Should a Catholic school be required to pay for a drug, the purpose of which
00:41:29.040 is to make it easier for men to have sex with lots of other men? Because by the way, don't forget,
00:41:34.720 we're not even just talking about men who have sex with one other man that they know where neither of
00:41:40.400 them have HIV and then they go get frisky, they do their thing, they go do whatever they're going to
00:41:44.720 do. They're not there. They are at a 0% risk of contracting HIV. Unless they're also reusing
00:41:50.660 heroin needles on the side, they are at a exactly 0% risk of catching HIV. The risk is only when you
00:41:58.500 are having sex with other men whose HIV status you don't know. Maybe you're having sex with strange
00:42:04.600 men. Maybe you're having sex with lots of other men. Maybe you're mixing in some intravenous drug
00:42:08.720 use on the side and you're not washing your needles. Whatever it is, you're talking about very,
00:42:13.920 very risky behaviors. Is it right to force an employer who maybe objects to that sort of thing
00:42:20.080 on moral grounds like every major religion ever to pay for that? And no, obviously that's a
00:42:26.340 violation of people's religious conscience. Obviously, this is the right decision. And it
00:42:31.400 was amazing. When I made this point yesterday, I mean, I made a similar point on monkeypox,
00:42:35.440 which is that monkeypox spreads among gay guys who have sex with lots of other gay guys. That's
00:42:39.720 pretty much the only group that it spreads among. We're talking about 95% plus of the transmission
00:42:45.300 of monkeypox is among promiscuous homosexual men. And you're not allowed to say that.
00:42:52.000 They say that if you say that, it's homophobic. But then they also say that if you don't want to
00:42:57.780 subsidize all the drugs for monkeypox, for example, that you're also being homophobic.
00:43:02.420 But hold on, I was just told that monkeypox is not specifically a gay thing. Well, no,
00:43:06.820 Michael, it's not specifically a gay thing. Okay, then we're not going to subsidize the drugs.
00:43:10.400 Well, if you don't subsidize the drugs, that's homophobic. Well,
00:43:12.660 it's only homophobic if it's a gay thing. You can't have it both ways. But they want to have
00:43:16.620 it both ways. What they really want, what the libs really want is just for you to shut up.
00:43:22.220 That's what it's about. Shut up, take it, don't object to anything. Because we now have a new kind
00:43:31.860 of animating principle for the country. And they view the Religious Freedom Restoration Act as
00:43:36.780 absurd and illegitimate and wrong. And they view Christianity as absurd and illegitimate and wrong.
00:43:43.120 And they wear actual satanic symbols in leather harnesses from the highest echelons of government
00:43:49.940 from the White House. Okay, the people who wear the satanic leather symbols are the people running
00:43:55.600 the show. And to pretend that that has nothing to do with Christianity, to pretend that that has
00:44:01.280 nothing to do with religious rights is absurd. And it was a lot easier for the libs to make that
00:44:08.740 argument and just to pretend that there was a kind of secular neutral ground where, no, come on,
00:44:13.300 just get your religion out of here. It was a lot easier to do that before they became so overt,
00:44:18.420 before senior government officials were leading men around by collars, men dressed up as little dogs
00:44:25.480 that they were going to abuse in sort of sadistic sexual rituals and wearing pentagrams and giving
00:44:31.280 fiery speeches calling half the country evil in front of what looks like the gates of hell,
00:44:37.480 in front of very dark backdrops with deep red lights, where you talk about the battle for the
00:44:43.140 soul of the nation. All right, we're gonna have a battle for the soul of the nation. Let's do it,
00:44:46.440 man. Let's talk about the soul. Let's talk about morality. We have to do it. That's what they want.
00:44:52.360 It's amazing. Sometimes you'll hear this from the libs all the time. They will say,
00:44:56.420 why are you Republicans so obsessed with other people's sex lives, their private sex lives?
00:45:04.240 They say, okay, how did this really play out? Because the way I saw it, I was just kind of
00:45:08.520 going about living my life, having a nice life and everything. And then the libs come in and they say,
00:45:12.620 hey, we're going to put gay porn in your kids' schools, which they actually have done. It's a book
00:45:18.880 called Gender Queer, and it's gay pornography. We're gonna put it in your kids' schools for very,
00:45:23.620 very young kids often, by the way. We're going to put your really little kids, like five-year-olds
00:45:29.820 to eight-year-olds, in a transgender indoctrination classroom and maybe even put them on puberty
00:45:35.240 blockers and not even tell you about it in some cases. We're gonna have drag shows at the public
00:45:39.560 libraries. We're going to radically redefine marriage. We're going to do X, Y, and Z.
00:45:47.460 Does that sound good? And then the conservatives and the kind of normal people, they'll say,
00:45:52.600 no, could we maybe not do that? And then the libs say, why are you so obsessed with sex?
00:46:00.940 Why are you so obsessed? Well, I'm not. You're just, you're forcing all of this on me all the time
00:46:07.880 and on my kids and in public and the pride parades with probably the monkey pox secretary
00:46:14.220 dancing in the weird leather in the middle of the street. And I just think maybe we chill with that
00:46:19.960 a little bit. Why are you so obsessed? We're not. We're not. We're not. But that's what the battle
00:46:26.040 is coming down to. The Indiana Supreme Court, for instance, right before I get to the member block,
00:46:30.360 we got a great interview today on show business and all sorts of, all sorts of spiritual and
00:46:36.340 cultural matters. The Indiana Supreme Court just upheld the firing of a teacher at a Catholic school
00:46:42.200 over his participation in same-sex marriage. Obviously, Catholic Church does not recognize
00:46:50.160 any such ontological category of same-sex marriage and has a, you know, pretty traditional
00:46:56.540 view of sexual ethics. And so the school says, okay, look, nothing against you, pal. You know,
00:47:02.520 I'm sure you're a nice enough guy. But look at our school, we have a view of things. We have a
00:47:08.600 Christian ethos and worldview. And so we need our teachers to, you know, we're teaching our kids to
00:47:15.440 be raised in that. That's the point of this education. And so you got to get along with that.
00:47:18.560 And if you don't want to get along with that, that's fine. Go teach at another school. There's
00:47:20.800 plenty of teaching jobs, but you can't teach here. And the libs forced the issue. Well, fortunately for now,
00:47:26.280 the Indiana Supreme Court upheld the right of the Catholic school to be Catholic.
00:47:30.280 But for how much longer, I don't know. Because the libs don't want to just live and let live and
00:47:33.880 let the Catholic schools do the Catholic school thing and let the Satanist schools do the Satanist
00:47:37.780 school thing. That's not what they want. And it's probably not possible anyway. They want a standard
00:47:43.000 and they want it to be their standard. They want it to be their side in the battle for the soul of the
00:47:47.880 nation. And their side is not the good side. They are the baddies. The rest of the show is
00:47:53.080 continuing now. If you don't want to miss it, which obviously you don't, then you got to become
00:47:57.240 a member, okay? The main show is for the hoi polloi. I love you, you hoi polloi. But when you want to get
00:48:03.020 the extra special exclusive stuff where we can speak a little more freely, okay, you got to come on over
00:48:08.220 to the member block. We will have Meg Basham here to discuss Olivia Wilde's claim. This Olivia Wilde,
00:48:16.740 director of some new stupid movie. Don't worry, darling. Her claim that Jordan Peterson is an evil
00:48:23.220 villain. Jordan Peterson, my friend and colleague, is the villain in this movie. We will discuss how
00:48:29.120 that is possible. How a polite, soft-spoken Canadian professor in a three-piece suit could become
00:48:34.660 the most vilified man in the world. So go join us over there. We'll see you at the member block.
00:48:46.740 of the reconocer you can spend more time in happens. All that is. Now we will go in the
00:48:48.880 house. We will try and visit you at theå ´. I'm only sleeping out here. We will be
00:48:53.740 with one of them. In a row and we have to go stream and catch up on the couch.
00:49:04.040 You last time in the cabinet, I'm principio up here to the master's the Ox culmination scene.
00:49:08.160 At the return of summer, we have to return to the master's and cocktail Hotel.
