The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 1102 - Velma Is Super Duper Gay In New Scooby-Doo Movie

00:00:00.000 In case you hadn't already noticed, everything is getting super duper gay. 0.99

00:00:06.000 Corporations have gone gay, sports teams have gone gay, and now a beloved cartoon character 0.72

00:00:12.880 from the late 1960s has, after 53 years in the closet, gone gay too. 0.52

00:00:20.720 And as promised, here are your Scooby snacks. 0.59

00:00:30.000 That's Velma there, just absolutely drooling. Velma dressed up like a 1970s lady, 1.00

00:00:41.040 drooling at the sight of this kind of 2022 looking lesbian lady. 1.00

00:00:45.560 Little old Velma is officially a lesbian. Before the year is through, I have no doubt that Mickey 1.00

00:00:51.760 will go trans and Popeye will get into S&M. But for now, Velma is a lesbian because Hollywood has, 1.00

00:00:59.660 in its own words, a not-so-secret gay agenda. But why? Why? Why does Velma, after all these years, 0.85

00:01:10.500 need to be a lesbian? Some people are actually arguing that Velma has always been a lesbian. 1.00

00:01:16.020 Why? Because she's frumpy and has short hair? That's not very nice to lesbians. 1.00

00:01:20.480 Because Velma doesn't have a boyfriend? Shaggy doesn't have a girlfriend. Does that mean that 0.92

00:01:25.500 Shaggy's gay? The person Shaggy spends the most time with is Scooby-Doo. Does that mean that Shaggy is 0.75

00:01:31.760 into that weird bestiality thing that the Biden nuclear energy guy photographs himself doing?

00:01:36.420 I don't think so. I certainly hope not. Why does every single thing have to be gay, 1.00

00:01:45.460 including half-century-old cartoons? Because narrative matters, of course.

00:01:51.300 narrative matters more than just about anything else in politics. That's why the left spends so

00:01:58.660 much time and energy rewriting the past. Whoever controls the past. Whoever controls the past

00:02:06.040 controls the present. Whoever controls the present controls the future. I'm Michael Knowles.

00:02:11.140 This is The Michael Knowles Show. Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from

00:02:22.380 the Drummer's Workshop at Norm's Music. I feel like this guy has had a lot of my favorite comments

00:02:27.540 before. He says, of course, Biden is Puerto Rican. Who do you think taught Jill Biden how to speak 0.97

00:02:32.680 Spanish? Si, se puede. Great point. A very good point. And I'm sure that when Joe was recounting his 1.00

00:02:43.140 childhood experiences with the guys from the neighborhood, he was just translating into

00:02:47.200 English for us. Because obviously, that bad dude, that muy mal hombre that he was dealing with was, 1.00

00:02:54.880 of course, El Cornpapo. He just went up to El Cornpapo, El Chapo Cornpapo. And he had a real tough

00:03:03.540 time. They had a real, they had a real, it was sort of like West Side Story kind of. And that's the

00:03:09.560 way that Joe Biden grew up, of course. He had to protect himself. You have to protect yourself in

00:03:14.560 your home. That's why you got to check out Ring. Right now, head on over to ring.com slash

00:03:18.940 Knowles. This season is very, very busy. I'm on the road, constantly giving speeches all around the

00:04:15.580 to ring.com slash Knowles. That is ring.com slash Knowles. Speaking of sexual eccentricity, big news

00:04:23.580 in the 2022 scene. Beto O'Rourke has a huge endorsement. He was just endorsed by Harry Styles,

00:04:31.780 the pop singer, which means that Beto O'Rourke has an absolute lock on the men who wear dresses vote. 1.00

00:04:40.840 Birds of a feather flock together. So it is no surprise that Beto, who has been known to don

00:04:47.480 some ladies' garments now and again, would have a lock on Harry Styles, who I think has entirely 0.94

00:04:53.220 stopped wearing pants. Only wears dresses. No surprise also that Harry Styles would endorse

00:04:59.460 Beto. Harry Styles is a huge lib. He is a big gun control proponent. He's done work with Everytown,

00:05:06.200 which is one of the left-wing gun control groups. He's worn a pride flag as clothing. And now he's

00:05:12.660 supporting Beto. Okay, does this really move the needle very much? I don't know. I don't live in Texas.

00:05:18.680 I have a lot of friends from Texas. And I don't think an endorsement from Harry Styles is exactly

00:05:23.980 going to swing that race. You're seeing a lot of desperation out of that race, in particular because

00:05:29.900 Beto now is just a multi-election loser. He was a pretty much unremarkable member of the House of

00:05:37.120 Representatives. Then he runs for president and loses. And he was so celebrated when he launched

00:05:45.180 his campaign, glossy covers of Vanity Fair, and then he went absolutely nowhere. Then he decided he

00:05:50.520 was going to run against Ted Cruz for the Senate in Texas. That, again, didn't go anywhere. Now he's

00:05:56.740 running for governor. It just looks sad. It looks really, really sad. The people just don't want

00:06:03.340 him. Speaking of narrative, the Democrats are losing control of the narrative. And I think Beto

00:06:13.320 and a lot of the other Dems are headed for defeat in November because the Democrat policies are failing.

00:06:18.780 The narrative is not matching reality. People are catching on to that. And the Democrats have no

00:06:23.340 answers. There was such an embarrassing moment yesterday at the White House. Poor Corrine

00:06:27.500 Jean-Pierre, hardest job in the world, and she's not up to it even if it weren't the hardest job in the

00:06:31.340 world. Corrine Jean-Pierre was asked about the gas prices. Because you see, the Biden administration

00:06:37.440 took a lot of credit when the gas prices went down. But what happens when gas prices go up again?

00:06:44.500 You've said the president was responsible for gas prices coming down.

00:06:48.720 Is the president responsible for gas prices going up?

00:06:53.500 So it's a lot more nuanced than that, right? Peter, you know this.

00:06:58.700 You know this, Peter. There's a lot. When good stuff happens, it's very simple. We're responsible.

00:07:05.220 When bad stuff happens, though, Peter, it's very nuanced and complicated.

00:07:09.480 This is pretty sad. This is what happens when, you hear this especially in academia,

00:07:17.320 whenever these eggheads in academia don't have an answer for something. They say,

00:07:20.340 well, it's very problematic. It's problematic and nuanced. You see, there's, no, there's so

00:07:25.300 many sides to this issue. No, well, what is it? Either the president is responsible for gas prices

00:07:31.280 or he's not. You could even say that gas prices are complicated and the president has some influence

00:07:37.040 over them, but doesn't have total influence over them. You could say that world events dictate gas

00:07:41.560 prices much more than the president, but the president still can do certain things. Fine,

00:07:45.420 whatever. But what you can't say is that the president is responsible when the prices go down,

00:07:50.980 but not responsible when the prices go up. You just can't say that. Either the president affects gas

00:07:58.280 prices or not. The degree to which he affects them is the same when the prices go up and when the prices

00:08:04.020 go down. But they have no answer for that. And so they just keep spinning their reels. I don't

00:08:08.960 think that persuades anybody. You are seeing Democrat policies failing in funnier and funnier ways.

00:08:17.640 My favorite example of this lately, great piece in Daily Wire on it by my friend Amanda Prestigiacomo.

00:08:24.640 There's this kid in New York. He refers to himself as a punk kid. We don't know his true identity

00:08:30.720 because he doesn't want to come out and arouse the ire of New York public officials because he totally

00:08:39.840 milked a ridiculous lib program to the tune of $21,000. So here's what happened. The attorney 0.62

00:08:48.500 general of New York, Letitia James, institutes this big gun buyback program. And gun buyback programs are

00:08:56.900 when the state come in and they give you money if you turn in your guns. And they'll frequently give

00:09:00.760 you more than the fair market value of your guns. And this is always just a publicity stunt. There is

00:09:06.800 absolutely no evidence that this reduces gun crime or murders or shootings or anything like that

00:09:12.540 whatsoever. There are actually studies that show that it doesn't do that. Affirmatively show that

00:09:19.100 there is no effect here on gun crime. But they do it because it makes headlines and it looks like

00:09:25.260 they're being really proactive. And so Letitia James, that's what she does. She creates the gun 0.99

00:09:29.140 buyback program in New York. And this guy, he just identifies himself as Kem, I think, K-E-M.

00:09:37.900 He gets a $200 3D printer and he prints out the lower receivers and frames of guns. These really cheap

00:09:48.380 plastic, it's just junk basically. And he prints it out on his $200 cheap printer. And then he goes in

00:09:55.220 and he trades every single one of these gun parts for a $500 gift card. And so he shows up to the

00:10:02.480 gun buyback program. They say, how many guns do you have that you want to turn over for public safety?

00:10:06.380 He goes, I don't know how many are you going to let me turn over. I got like 40 in my truck.

00:10:10.600 And so after a little bit of negotiation, he turns over these guns, 42 of them. And he says,

00:10:19.420 it ended with the guy and a lady from the budget office finally coming around with the 42 gift cards

00:10:24.120 and counting them in front of me. 42. And why? Because Letitia James is getting guns off the 1.00

00:10:31.400 streets and out of our communities. It's one of the many ways my office is working to protect

00:10:34.580 New York families and combat rising crime rates. So the thing about the gun buyback is the gang

00:10:39.400 bangers are not going to go and give you their guns. They're not going to do it for $500. That's 1.00

00:10:43.360 for sure. These guys are making way more money with their guns. The actual criminals who are going out

00:10:47.800 who need their guns to do their jobs, they're not going to participate. So sometimes law-abiding gun

00:10:53.060 owners hand over their guns, which means that the potential victims are the only people who end up

00:10:57.360 getting disarmed here. But it also creates a bunch of perverse incentives. If you can go out

00:11:01.720 and buy some guns or produce some gun parts and then turn them over and make more money than you just

00:11:07.680 paid for them, that creates an arbitrage opportunity. And you get to totally scam the program,

00:11:13.060 which of course this kid did. And I give him a lot of credit for it. There are consequences

00:11:20.780 to ignorant, incompetent public officials. We talked about this yesterday. Politics is not just 1.00

00:11:27.260 about ideology. And politics is not just about which philosophers you like to read. And am I a

00:11:33.940 Marxist or a fascist or a neoliberal or a this or that? A lot of politics is just basic competence.

00:11:40.960 Do you understand basic incentives? Do you know how to make the government work? Do you know how

00:11:45.340 to fill the potholes? And these people are not competent. It actually, this gives me a lot of

00:11:49.920 hope, the fact that this woman is so incompetent, because this is the lady who's supposed to bring 1.00

00:11:53.720 down Donald Trump. Remember, this is the New York attorney general who's going to demolish the Trump 0.97

00:11:57.940 organization and finally get Trump once and for all. His back's against the wall. The walls are closing

00:12:03.180 in, right? This is the person who's going to take down Trump. I think Donald is going to be just fine.

00:12:07.240 I've never been more hopeful that the man's going to make it back to the White House than to think

00:12:10.780 that this lady is his big opponent right now on the legal front. The left is not omnipotent. 1.00

00:12:19.520 I think sometimes we conservatives, when we realize the scope of the problem,

00:12:26.160 we lose hope. We despair. We get very blackpilled, okay, to use the lingo of the cool hip zoomers. 0.91

00:12:32.780 We say, wait a second, the political fight, it's not really just the Republicans versus the Democrats

00:12:39.720 in a neutral public square. Oh my gosh, it's the Republicans. Well, it's really the conservatives

00:12:44.680 versus the Democrats, the press, the corporations, the academia, the big tech oligarchs, the bureaucracy,

00:12:55.880 the this, the that, the this, the that, and even against many Republicans who are just squishes. Oh my

00:13:01.320 gosh, the whole deck is stacked against us. There's no way we can ever win. Yes, it's not a fair fight.

00:13:07.000 It's not evenly matched. There's no neutral public square. The libs are dominant. That's true.

00:13:12.580 But the left is not omnipotent. This is where so many people go down a bad path when they start

00:13:22.220 talking about the vast conspiracies that control the world. Yeah, there are conspiracies. Of course

00:13:26.940 there are. Yeah, there are shady cabals of oligarchs who meet in smoke-filled rooms and decide how they're 0.99

00:13:33.700 going to institute a great reset and rework the world in their own image. Yeah, that all happens.

00:13:40.280 But where the theories sort of fall apart a little bit is those people are not omnipotent. They're

00:13:45.200 human beings just like me and you. They're fallen creatures. Their power is not perfect.

00:13:51.660 Look at the incompetence of people like Joe Biden. Look at the incompetence of people like

00:13:55.300 Kareem Jean-Pierre. Look at the fact that these people who control not only the culture and the

00:14:01.620 education system, they control the social media, they control the public square, they can censor

00:14:06.240 pretty much whatever they want. And even still, at least half the people, and I think frankly most

00:14:12.100 people on most issues, totally have their number. They're not omnipotent, okay? Joe Biden just got in

00:14:20.940 a little bit of trouble for discussing this. He tweeted out, quote, my dad used to say, Joey,

00:14:25.300 don't compare me to the almighty, compare me to the alternative. And here's the deal. Democrats want to

00:14:30.680 codify Roe. Republicans want a national ban on abortion. The choice is clear.

00:14:36.880 Did you catch? Did you catch that? He deleted this tweet, by the way. Do you know why he deleted

00:14:41.580 it? Because oopsie daisy, he actually compared himself and his family, at least, to the devil.

00:14:48.300 And I assume that some of Biden's pollsters came into the office after he dashed that one off,

00:14:52.660 or after his handler dashed that one off. Biden doesn't handle this himself, obviously.

00:14:56.400 And said, hey, Mr. President, hey, guys, could we hold off on the comparisons to Satan

00:15:03.080 until at least the midterms? And Biden has had a big problem with the Satan comparisons because

00:15:09.680 he gave that speech in front of the big, ominous, sort of infernal red backdrop with the screaming

00:15:14.320 and the yelling and calling everyone fascist. And he's got that guy who works for him in the

00:15:18.220 monkeypox office who wears pentagrams on his chest over his pentagram tattoo. And he's got that

00:15:23.540 sort of demonic looking fellow who thinks that he's a woman. He's the assistant health secretary

00:15:27.740 who's always talking about how we need to castrate little kids and put them on cross-sex hormones. 0.97

00:15:32.260 And then we've got that other guy who's in the energy, nuclear energy office, who I referenced

00:15:38.440 a little bit earlier, photographs himself. He puts on dresses and high heels and he photographs

00:15:43.020 himself leading grown men around in these sort of leather dog costumes on a leash. And it's all just

00:15:48.060 kind of, it all seems kind of satanic, doesn't it? And Biden's always talking about how we're in a

00:15:54.660 battle for the soul of our nation. And then here, you can see the joke he was trying to make.

00:15:59.360 The joke he's trying to make is his dad saying, hey, buddy, stop criticizing me.

00:16:02.780 You're comparing me to God, but you know, hey, compare me to the devil. I look pretty good,

00:16:06.180 actually. But then it's because it's followed up with, right? Biden opens it. He says,

00:16:12.160 essentially, who are you going to compare me to, God or the devil? 0.99

00:16:15.460 And then he follows it up with, we want to kill a bunch of babies and Republicans want to save a 0.99

00:16:20.260 bunch of babies. The choice is clear. Well, that's obvious. Biden in that comparison is on the side 0.99

00:16:25.800 of the devil. And so he deleted it. Why do you think he had to delete it? Because even Joe Biden

00:16:29.880 and his handlers looked at it and said, oh, darn, man, we look like the devil. That's not a good look. 0.98

00:16:34.980 You don't want to look like the devil. Speaking of tweets, huge news on Twitter, news that I am at least

00:16:42.300 55% surprised by. The Elon Musk Twitter deal is going through. You know, very often I predict the

00:16:52.360 future. I've got my Nolstradamus hat. I've got my crystal ball. This I did not predict. I'm not

00:16:59.380 entirely surprised by it, but I thought that Elon Musk was basically creating a big publicity storm,

00:17:08.020 but ultimately faking it when he was trying to buy Twitter. And that actually may have been right in

00:17:13.300 the sense that he did seem to try to get out of the Twitter deal. From the legal perspective,

00:17:18.100 it started to look like he was not going to be let out of the Twitter deal. So he was just going

00:17:21.380 to be forced by the courts to buy Twitter anyway, or pay huge fines. And so now Elon Musk has said,

00:17:28.040 okay, I will buy Twitter for the price that I initially said I would buy it for.

00:17:31.060 And Twitter has accepted Musk's offer. Twitter issued a statement today, quote,

00:17:36.820 or yesterday rather, we received the letter from the Musk parties, which they have filed with the

00:17:41.780 SEC. The intention of the company is to close the transaction at $54.20 per share. So this is great.

00:17:50.360 Whether Musk has to buy it now because he really wants to buy it, or whether it's because he's

00:17:54.280 forced to buy it by circumstances, which I think is probably more likely. Either way, it's great.

00:17:58.460 I think Elon Musk running Twitter is going to be a huge improvement over the lib oligarchs who control

00:18:07.280 it now, who are putting their thumb, not just their thumb on the scales, they're putting their

00:18:12.040 whole foot on the scales for the libs when it comes to elections. And we've got one of those coming up.

00:18:18.020 But also when it comes to just the regular day-to-day of politics, they suppress the conservatives,

00:18:23.720 they amplify the liberals. So yeah, that's great.

00:18:26.140 However, this doesn't solve the problem. I've been talking for the past couple days on this show

00:18:32.540 about how the left and the right have given away our self-government to private corporations

00:18:43.180 and to more private interests. And yes, those corporations work in tandem with certain parts

00:18:49.440 of the state, but the corporations are even less accountable than the state in many cases.

00:18:53.760 Why has the left done this? Well, because they don't have to deal with that sort of accountability.

00:18:59.040 So the left can create a bunch of front groups. The left can, you see this with BLM and Antifa.

00:19:06.060 The left doesn't want to go in, in most cases, and actually send the police to attack their

00:19:11.380 political opponents. They do it sometimes. They use the FBI in this way. They just used it against

00:19:15.240 Donald Trump. They're using it against pro-lifers. But usually what the left prefers to do when it wants

00:19:19.760 to threaten and inflict political violence on its opponents is it uses these sort of paramilitary

00:19:25.780 front groups for the Democratic Party. That would be BLM or Antifa. And they go and they burn and they

00:19:31.540 rape and they kill and they pillage. And then after months and months of this, they get maybe a little 0.94

00:19:37.880 slap on the wrist. They say, naughty, naughty, don't do that again. But if you do, we'll bail you out. 1.00

00:19:42.080 Thanks. Thanks. Thanks for the help, Antifa. Thanks for the help, BLM.

00:19:46.000 Kamala Harris is going to go raise money now so you don't have to sit in the clink for too long. 0.63

00:19:49.280 So that's very often what they do. And it gives them a lot of cover from accountability.

00:19:56.280 Well, why do the conservatives do it? The conservatives have given away self-government

00:20:01.100 in the name of economic growth. They've said, well, listen, the government's very inefficient.

00:20:05.760 Private industry is very efficient. Private industry might be more efficient than the government,

00:20:11.700 but there's bureaucracy in private industry also. And so they say, okay, we're going to have public

00:20:15.800 private partnerships or just going to privatize things entirely. And that's great. And that'll

00:20:19.560 be much freer. It's because of a strain of libertarianism that really crept into the

00:20:23.860 conservative movement in the latter part of the 20th century. And they say, private, always good.

00:20:28.500 Public, always bad. And so what does that do? Well, in some cases it improves things. But when we're

00:20:36.040 talking about free speech, when we're talking about the public square, if you privatize the public

00:20:41.420 square, now all of a sudden you've got a handful of oligarchs. It's not like it's some thriving free

00:20:47.440 market with lots and lots of players. You're talking about three or four people, right? You're talking

00:20:50.700 about Facebook, Twitter, Google. That's it, right? We got Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, or now Elon Musk.

00:21:01.000 Okay, that's an improvement. And Sundar Pichai, they're controlling the public square.

00:21:06.600 And they're even less accountable than members of Congress are to us. That's no good.

00:21:10.600 It doesn't, the Elon Musk purchase of Twitter doesn't solve the problem. It improves things

00:21:15.560 tactically for a little while. But we need to figure out a way if we are to restore any semblance

00:21:20.460 of self-government and the traditional American way of life. It's not enough to say, okay, well,

00:21:25.340 now we've got our billionaire corporate CEO running things. They previously had their billionaire

00:21:33.080 corporate CEO, but now we've got our billionaire. No, if we want to restore any semblance of

00:21:37.520 self-government, we need to say, no, no, no, the corporations actually don't get to run the whole

00:21:42.080 government. They have a lot of power, but we the people in the political community, we're going to

00:21:48.080 wield some power too. And you're seeing this. For so many years, the Republicans just carried water

00:21:53.420 for corporations, frequently corporations that hated our guts. And now you really saw it starting

00:21:59.360 with Trump. You see it, especially with DeSantis. You're starting to see that turn. No longer do we

00:22:04.280 hear, well, if you don't like half the country being censored and the president of the United

00:22:09.860 States being deplatformed, then build your own Twitter. No, I don't think we're going to do that.

00:22:14.520 I think we're going to take over Twitter, perhaps through private means first, like Elon Musk. I think

00:22:20.800 he's certainly more on our side than the other guys are. But then we're going to exert influence

00:22:25.640 on Twitter as a political community. That is very much our right. It's actually our obligation if we

00:22:30.820 want to have a constitutional republic. Now, fellas, we have got a brand new show out on Daily Wire Plus.

00:22:39.420 It's called Breakaways with Alison Williams. If you have not heard, Alison was a successful ESPN

00:22:45.100 sideline reporter. But when ESPN insisted that everyone get that Fauci ouchie, she refused. Why?

00:22:51.960 Because she was trying to get pregnant and was rightly worried about potential side effects of 0.99

00:22:58.180 the vaccine. So rather than take the risk, she quit. Good on her. On Breakaways, Alison sits down with

00:23:04.280 athletes who took a stand for their beliefs. The first four episodes feature Jonathan Isaac,

00:23:08.900 Nick Rolovich, Inez Cantor-Freedom, and Dana White. Those episodes are available now and four

00:23:15.440 additional episodes are coming soon. Head on over to dailywire.com slash Knowles right now to become

00:23:20.380 a member and watch the series. That is dailywire.com slash Knowles. Speaking of less than ideal

00:23:30.520 arrangements, Tom Brady. News reports are out now that even Tom Brady and his supermodel wife,

00:23:40.680 Giselle, I don't know how to pronounce her maiden name, Bunjin? Bunjin? I don't know. His very beautiful

00:23:47.280 wife, Giselle, are reportedly hiring divorce lawyers and looking to split up. I'm not all that interested

00:23:56.600 in covering tabloid stories. I'm not all that interested. I feel very bad for Tom Brady and his

00:24:02.200 wife and especially for their kids. But this is not just a private matter. Sometimes you hear people

00:24:08.500 say, oh, you know, if a guy's going to get divorced, that's just a private matter. Stay out of his private

00:24:12.420 life. It's not a private matter. Marriage is a public institution. That's why you do it in public. 1.00

00:24:19.700 That's why you register it with the state. And before you registered it with the state,

00:24:26.480 you would register it with the church, which was frequently established by the state. There has

00:24:30.000 always been a public component here. You take your marriage vows, not just to your spouse, but before

00:24:38.040 God, before some kind of minister, whether it's a priest or it's a minister of the, a justice of the

00:24:44.120 peace. And usually you may take those vows before your friends and family and the whole community.

00:24:52.800 At the very least, you have to do it before a witness, right? Even if you go to the Elvis

00:24:55.820 Chapel in Vegas, you got to do it before a witness. So this is a public matter. It actually is our

00:25:00.220 business. And it's, it's very sad. I'm sure these people are going through a ton of pain right now.

00:25:05.200 But I think it is our responsibility as citizens, not be, not friends of Tom Brady. I don't know Tom

00:25:14.540 Brady, not as, you know, people who are in the family, but our responsibility as citizens to say

00:25:20.920 they shouldn't do this. They shouldn't do this. I know it's a fallen world and people have tough

00:25:27.380 marriages and people go through rough patches. I have never seen a family improved by divorce.

00:25:35.200 Sometimes in, in very rare cases, there is even, there is not only a right, but an obligation to

00:25:43.300 have some kind of separation. Let's say that, I don't know, the husband is a knockdown, violent,

00:25:47.780 abusive drunk, and he's thrown his wife against the walls. And sometimes for the, for just the 0.50

00:25:54.040 protection of one's own life and the life of one's own kids, there is some separation that might be

00:25:58.120 required. Say until the, you know, the husband goes to rehab or something like that, figures out his

00:26:02.340 life. I'm not, I'm not denying that. But as a rule, I have never, ever seen a family improved by

00:26:11.720 divorce. These people, I don't know anything about their circumstances. I don't know. Did someone

00:26:17.480 cheat on someone? Did someone, I actually, I don't think that's even being reported right now. What's

00:26:21.180 being reported is that Tom Brady and his wife are getting divorced or might be getting divorced

00:26:24.980 because they had an argument over whether Tom was going to retire from football or not.

00:26:30.080 And she was upset that he didn't spend enough time with the kids and she didn't want to go back to

00:26:34.840 work or whatever. Again, this is all tabloid trash. I have no idea what's actually going on in the 0.99

00:26:38.020 marriage. And I don't really care. Figure it out. Figure it out. But it doesn't, it's not

00:26:44.060 reparable at this point. It's, it's absolutely, the marriage is just beyond repair. No, it isn't.

00:26:49.560 I asked, before I got married, I was asking for marital advice from lots of people. And some of

00:26:55.180 the, I said, how do you avoid getting divorced? 50% of marriages or something end in divorce right

00:26:59.220 now. So many of my friends and family members, their parents were divorced. How do you avoid

00:27:04.260 divorce? How do you keep a marriage together? And, and the best advice I heard was very simple.

00:27:09.120 They said, oh, well, the best way to keep your marriage together and have a long marriage is just,

00:27:13.400 just don't get divorced. Just work through it. All marriages are going to go through rough patches. 1.00

00:27:22.120 Any two people who spend enough time together are going to, going to have disagreements and going to

00:27:26.580 have periods where they, they really don't like one another. But there is something greater than your

00:27:30.600 individual desires. Certainly the kids' interests should come before the interests of the parents.

00:27:37.460 But the marriage itself is an institution. And as we weaken marriage, culturally, politically,

00:27:45.400 legally, as we weaken that, the whole country is going to weaken. They, they should not get

00:27:51.940 divorced. I was, I was also very taken with the Kim and Kanye divorce story because you heard all

00:27:58.960 these people, well, he is kind of crazy and she doesn't like what he's doing and they disagree over

00:28:03.780 this, that. Yeah. Who cares? Kim Kardashian goes and she does an interview with one of the glossy 0.93

00:28:09.200 magazines. And she says, you know, I'm just not happy right now. And I just want to, my 40s are

00:28:13.520 going to be about me. No, it shouldn't be. It shouldn't be about you at all. And I don't,

00:28:17.420 and I don't care if you don't feel happy at this particular moment. You're not going to feel happy at

00:28:21.540 every single moment of your life. It's like, it's a fallen world. There are more important things than

00:28:27.120 your individual pleasure at any given moment. Just work it out, work it out. This is, I'm giving this

00:28:35.840 commentary not to stick my nose in Tom Brady's business or anyone else's business for that

00:28:40.280 matter. I'm doing it because it's, it's true. Neither of these people will be happier in the

00:28:46.460 long run if they get divorced. I've never seen it. If you're, if you're listening to this and you've

00:28:50.420 been divorced, are you really happier? You really happier? Do you really think your life is better

00:28:55.820 because you got divorced? Maybe your wife left you. Maybe your husband left you. Maybe it was

00:29:00.280 something that you really couldn't avoid. I'm not, I'm not casting stones, but on the topic of divorce

00:29:07.520 itself, are you really happier? No, no. I've never met anyone who could tell me that they're really

00:29:12.800 happier by them. Speaking of attacks on the family, Planned Parenthood is peddling puberty blockers

00:29:19.920 to kids. The kids that they, that slipped through the fingers of Planned Parenthood, the kids who are

00:29:25.400 actually, uh, able to live and be born. Planned Parenthood says, okay, we weren't able to get you

00:29:30.760 in the womb, but we are going to destroy your bodies and your lives. Once you're out of the womb, 1.00

00:29:35.120 here's the commercial they're running. There's no one size fits all puberty experience. If you're

00:29:40.380 trans, intersex, or non-binary, know that you're not the only one feeling confused. For some intersex

00:29:46.860 people, puberty may start later than age 14. You might experience some of puberty's changes and not

00:29:53.340 others. And your body may or may not go through puberty on its own. There are medicines you can

00:29:58.820 take to help your body start the process, like hormone replacement therapy. Some people decide

00:30:03.840 on hormones or surgeries to help their bodies match up to their gender identity, or how they feel inside

00:30:08.740 about themselves. Your gender identity is real. You should be the one to decide what changes you want 0.61

00:30:14.240 to make to your body. If you're transgender or non-binary, you may find that your puberty experiences

00:30:20.020 don't line up with your gender identity or how you see yourself. That feeling can be uncomfortable,

00:30:25.560 scary, and stressful. If that sounds like you, know that you're not alone. There are medicines you

00:30:31.840 can take to delay puberty for a while. They're called puberty blockers, and they work like a stop

00:30:36.640 sign by halting the hormones testosterone and estrogen that cause puberty changes like facial hair

00:30:41.500 growth and periods. Puberty blockers are safe and can give you more time to figure out what feels right

00:30:46.980 for you. Man, that's the weirdest episode of Scooby-Doo I ever saw, isn't it? I don't know.

00:30:51.760 Velma looks a little bit different. Not all that much different, I guess. It's hard even to single

00:30:57.880 out Planned Parenthood here for this perverted evil attack on children, though it is obviously both of 0.72

00:31:04.240 those things, because the whole culture is doing it because Scooby-Dooby-Doo is doing it.

00:31:08.540 So of course, Planned Parenthood is going to do it. Why? Why are all these people doing this?

00:31:12.300 There's an ideological incentive. Earlier I said, whoever controls the past controls the present,

00:31:18.080 whoever controls the present controls the future. That's true. It's missing a little something,

00:31:22.040 though. There's actually even an earlier part to that equation, which is whoever controls the

00:31:30.700 imagination controls the past. The imagination is what comes first. We don't have really direct

00:31:37.620 access to the past. We only have access to things that are in the present. We only have access to

00:31:43.980 people who are in the present. And those things and those people can evoke memories, but really

00:31:50.320 they're constituting narratives. And those narratives inform our vision, which is just in our imagination

00:31:56.360 of what the past is. So if you, in your imagination, see America in the 1950s as a nice place with two

00:32:05.440 cars in every garage and a chicken in every pot and basically stable family lives and basically a good

00:32:10.240 place, that informs one sense of the past. And that's going to inform how you want to, how you

00:32:15.040 view the present and how you want to live in the future. Or if in your imagination, you view America

00:32:19.180 in the 50s as a racist, evil, bigoted, violent, dangerous, terrible, evil, consumerist, trash place, 0.97

00:32:26.360 well, that's going to give you a very different view of the past and the present. And it's going to 0.99

00:32:30.040 inform how you want to live into the future. Why is Planned Parenthood so focused on this narrative?

00:32:36.760 Why is the whole left so focused on this narrative? Well, because they have an ideological agenda,

00:32:42.060 absolutely. They want the future to look a certain way because of how they view human beings in the

00:32:45.960 world. They also have a huge financial interest in promoting this stuff. Do you think it's just a

00:32:54.980 coincidence that all the biggest, most powerful forces in the country just so happened to adopt

00:33:03.320 the ideological view, in this case, transgenderism, that just so happens to hook people at younger and

00:33:13.760 younger ages on extremely expensive medical subscriptions that will require a ton of money.

00:33:21.440 It'll be a huge moneymaker, as some public health administrators have talked about here in

00:33:25.660 Tennessee, and will keep them on it their whole lives. And that just so happened to increase the

00:33:31.780 corporate and state control over their lives and their reliance on corporations and on the state.

00:33:36.800 Yeah, it's just a coincidence that the ideological narratives being painted by the establishment

00:33:44.120 stand to greatly enrich and empower that very same establishment. That's just a coincidence.

00:33:50.460 Wow, lucky for them. What a lucky break. No, of course not. Of course not. A lot of this is being

00:33:55.640 driven by money as well. And as the narrative serves the financial and political interests of the

00:34:03.840 establishment, you're seeing the cases of transgenderism skyrocket. In the UK, there's a new 1.00

00:34:10.360 tranche of data released by the Gender Identity Development Service at the UK's infamous Tavistock Center,

00:34:19.240 found out that child and adolescent referrals have doubled compared to the previous year.

00:34:26.200 GIDS, as it is called, GIDS or JIDS, it's sort of like GIF or JIF, now estimates that over 5,000

00:34:32.760 children and adolescents sought gender-related services in 2021 to 2022. That is a 112% increase over the

00:34:41.420 previous year. How'd that happen? Is Alex Jones right? Is there something in the water turning

00:34:48.240 the frogs and turning Velma and turning everybody gay and trans? He actually was right about the 1.00

00:34:53.440 frogs. People don't give him credit for that, but he was right. There was a Yale and EPA study

00:34:57.780 that found that there were chemicals in the water that were turning the frogs into hermaphrodites,

00:35:02.380 but that's a point for another time. Is it that or do you think there's a social contagion here that's

00:35:06.780 being compounded, that's being promoted by corporate and state interests? And who are the

00:35:12.920 victims here? The victims happen to be these kids who destroy their bodies, who destroy their lives,

00:35:17.840 who become extremely depressed, who despair, even though there is a way out, but there is irreparable

00:35:23.440 damage that comes along with that as well. That's what happens. The numbers, of course, are going to keep

00:35:28.420 going up. Because even as normal people, the vast majority of Americans, vast majority of Brits, 0.87

00:35:34.300 I'm sure, think that this is completely insane. And public opinion polls reflect that and elections

00:35:39.640 reflect that. The Youngkin election to governor in Virginia was largely about this issue of transing

00:35:46.900 the kids, okay? And he won in a blue state. So yeah, of course the people are opposed to this stuff.

00:35:52.480 And yet, and yet, it continues to be enshrined in law. What's up with that? What's up with that?

00:36:00.440 Well, because our political establishment does not reflect the will of the people,

00:36:04.240 much as they want to prattle on about our sacred democracy. They don't give a damn about our

00:36:07.540 democracy. They hate democracy. They hate it when the people vote against their interests. All they 0.93

00:36:11.700 care about is their version of liberalism. And they're going to impose it. They're going to impose

00:36:16.780 it like a jackboot on our necks. And they're going to have the temerity to call it democracy. And when we

00:36:23.440 fight back, they're going to have the temerity to call us threats against democracy. Also,

00:36:28.620 they can shoot up children with cross-sex drugs. Speaking of undesirable shots, 0.99

00:36:34.340 Ron DeSantis, and fighting back. Ron DeSantis has just come out. I think everyone would agree he's

00:36:39.400 done a very good job dealing with this hurricane, this awful, awful hurricane that landed in Florida.

00:36:45.640 So Ron DeSantis said, okay, some people died. Fortunately, the death toll was lower than some

00:36:52.660 people were estimating. We've done rescue missions. That's really, really great. But now,

00:36:57.360 when property is destroyed, when there's a little bit of political chaos, sometimes bad

00:37:01.540 men start to loot. And Ron DeSantis comes out and he says, look, in this state where the Second

00:37:07.000 Amendment is fully active, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. So beware.

00:37:14.080 The other thing that we're concerned about, particularly in those areas that were really

00:37:17.580 hard hit, is we want to make sure we're maintaining law and order. Don't even think about looting.

00:37:23.580 Don't even think about taking advantage of people in this vulnerable situation. And so

00:37:29.100 local law enforcement is involved in monitoring that. I told Kevin, if the state needs to help as

00:37:35.500 well, because you can have people bringing boats into some of these islands and trying to ransack

00:37:41.020 people's homes. I can tell you, in the state of Florida, you never know what may be lurking behind

00:37:46.960 somebody's home. And I would not want to chance that if I were you, given that we're a Second Amendment

00:37:51.620 state. Totally right. Totally. And what happens? The libs say, you're a racist. You're a terrible

00:37:59.220 racist. I saw this. It was like all of these NPCs, all of these automatons, they just got the talking 1.00

00:38:07.320 points right away. They said, Ron DeSantis, beep, boop. Ron DeSantis said that looters will be shot.

00:38:14.520 Beep, boop. That's what racists said in the 60s. Beep, beep, beep, beep, boop. Looting is a civil

00:38:20.060 right. I don't know. I guess that's what they're implying. Black people don't like to get looted

00:38:24.980 either. Hispanic people don't like to get looted either. Black people have Second Amendment rights 0.99

00:38:31.100 too. Hispanic people have Second Amendment rights too. It is very, very good. It is good for everybody.

00:38:37.960 It is for, you might say, the common good that when the looting starts, the shooting starts,

00:38:42.760 because it will protect public order. It will save lives, ultimately. You don't want bands of

00:38:47.520 marauders going into people's homes. But this is what they do. This is how now I can ascertain

00:38:54.580 who a good, strong political candidate will be, is how vociferously the left calls that person

00:39:03.520 racist. Because racist is just a synonym for bad. It has nothing to do with race at all,

00:39:08.240 really, anymore. It's just bad. You're a bad person. And the more the libs call you a racist,

00:39:13.620 the more likely you are to be doing the right thing. Because they're afraid of you and they

00:39:17.160 call you the worst thing that you can be called in society. It has nothing to do with race

00:39:22.800 whatsoever. It just says, we don't like you. It's just, they use it the same way that they use

00:39:26.280 democracy, right? The libs hate democracy. They openly oppose democracy in many, many cases.

00:39:31.620 They just use that word to mean something completely different. It's the same with racism.

00:39:34.860 And they're looking terrible, especially with regard to this hurricane. So DeSantis from the

00:39:41.880 governor's office, I think he did a good job. Certainly the first responders on the scene did

00:39:45.420 an amazing job in Florida. And the president commended them for that. And so he said, these

00:39:50.340 Coast Guard rescue swimmers, man, these guys are so great. But the problem is Joe Biden is currently,

00:39:56.120 he's right now in the process of firing, not only one of the rescue swimmers who he was previously

00:40:05.780 commending in Florida for saving people, but many, many other members of our military because they

00:40:12.120 won't take the Fauci ouchie. The president recently praised a group of Coast Guard rescue swimmers.

00:40:18.120 One of them reportedly faces termination because he isn't vaccinated. And I'm curious,

00:40:24.740 given the threats that we're facing abroad, would the president ever reconsider that vaccination

00:40:30.000 requirement or consider issuing more exemptions? So as you, as, as you can imagine, the president

00:40:36.240 has the most, the deepest respect for the U.S. Coast Guard. That is something that you would hear

00:40:43.220 from him directly. And the country, the president and the country are grateful for all of the U.S.

00:40:48.940 Coast Guard heroes that have led the effort to save lives in Florida. We have seen that with our

00:40:55.580 very own eyes these past couple of days. I would refer you specifically to the U.S. Coast Guard on

00:41:01.540 this, on this issue, on this individual questions. It's not something that I would comment from here.

00:41:07.140 But, you know, there, of course, have been multiple vaccination requirements, as you know, in place for

00:41:13.540 quite some time. And, but again, I'm not going to comment here from here on an individual case.

00:41:20.200 I'm not going to comment here on an individual case, but it's not an individual case.

00:41:24.420 The vaccine mandate is for all of the service members. It just so happens that one of the 0.57

00:41:30.340 service members is, happens to be one of the guys that the president just individually,

00:41:34.720 personally commended for saving lives. But, but the reporter is asking a policy question.

00:41:39.640 Will the, is the president still going to fire these people? Oh, the president has the utmost

00:41:44.660 respect for these people. He's still going to take their jobs away if they don't comply with

00:41:48.940 taking his shot that is, is not quite so safe and effective as we were previously told.

00:41:54.240 And which gives people health problems and kills people in, in more cases than we were told it would.

00:42:00.720 I don't know. Am I dancing around the censorship enough, YouTube? I don't know.

00:42:04.520 But people who are very wisely not taking this shot, in my humble opinion.

00:42:10.500 Yeah, but he still has the most respect for these people.

00:42:13.740 Oh yeah, the utmost. But he's not, I'm not going to comment on it. You got to talk to the Coast Guard.

00:42:17.160 Why? The Coast Guard didn't give the order. This order for the vaccine mandate goes up to the top.

00:42:22.220 That's a Biden order. That's a White House order. Oh yeah, no, nevermind. No, we, yeah,

00:42:27.600 we like them, but we don't like them, but we don't. And now they're in the middle of the road.

00:42:30.380 They're going to get hit by a truck. That's what's going to happen. Because the Biden administration

00:42:35.060 is dug in on its radicalism. The radicalism is not popular, especially this year heading into

00:42:41.320 the midterms in 2022. So the Biden administration wants to seem moderate, but they're not willing

00:42:46.800 to do any of the things that are necessary to be more moderate. They want, the libs do this all the

00:42:52.800 time. I've talked about this on this show from the very beginning of the show. The libs want the 0.98

00:42:58.660 appearance of the thing, without the essence of the thing. They want to appear like women, 0.99

00:43:06.060 but not be women, right? You especially see this with transgenderism. They want to appear moderate 1.00

00:43:12.540 and reasonable, but not be moderate and reasonable. They're the sort of people who drink decaffeinated

00:43:17.180 coffee, right? It seems like coffee, but it's missing the essence of coffee, right? These are,

00:43:23.140 they want all the symbol, but they don't recognize that the symbol has a connection to something that

00:43:30.940 is symbolized. And they're doing it here too. They can't do it. And the radicalism is just keeping up

00:43:38.520 and up. But Joe Biden's energy secretary, Miguel Cardona, was just asked about his priorities in

00:43:47.540 education policy. And he said, you know what students really need to learn? Their scores in math and verbal

00:43:53.160 are just collapsing right now. Students are worse educated than probably they've ever been in our

00:43:59.200 country's history. And what they really, really need is abortions. I share your grave concerns about 0.98

00:44:06.020 maintaining access to contraception and reproductive health services on our college campuses and ensuring

00:44:12.880 there's accurate, reliable information for students and for educators. Students need access

00:44:19.000 to health care to thrive in school and in life. And that includes reproductive health care. 0.93

00:44:25.080 I said energy secretary. I meant to say education secretary, although it's very confusing because

00:44:30.440 the education secretary is talking about something that I suppose the health and human services

00:44:34.460 secretary should be talking about. It's all just getting kind of jumbled and blurred together. Do you

00:44:38.800 really think that that's what students most need in America right now? They need to be able to

00:44:42.500 kill their own children if they conceive children, which they probably shouldn't be. And we probably 1.00

00:44:48.220 shouldn't be enacting policies that will encourage them to put themselves in situations where they

00:44:52.000 might be conceiving children out of wedlock when they're still teenagers. Do you, that's what they

00:44:56.460 really need most? No. Parents who have become a major voting force in this country, parents as an

00:45:02.520 actual voting group, do you think when they hear that, they say, hold on, you've screwed my kid out of

00:45:06.800 his education for two years. You're teaching him all sorts of insanity right now. You're telling him that

00:45:11.160 he's evil because he's white. You're telling him that he's actually a woman. You're telling him all 0.99

00:45:15.500 sorts of madness. And now, now you're saying that the best thing you're going to do for kids is give

00:45:19.760 them the opportunity to kill their own children. What? That's not, that's not going to be very 1.00

00:45:24.880 popular. It's so, so radical. It is a narrative that they are pushing, but the narrative is not

00:45:29.380 very persuasive. And so what are they going to do? They have two options. They're going to abandon

00:45:32.700 the narrative or they're going to try to enforce it even harder. Which one do you think they're

00:45:37.260 going to do? Speaking of pushing these narratives, speaking of everything, every single thing

00:45:41.220 becoming super duper gay, we have got a trailer for this movie that my producers insist that I watch.

00:45:49.420 It's called Bros. It's a movie, it didn't do very well, apparently, at the box office on opening

00:45:54.700 weekend. It's apparently very, very gay. They, the producers want to know if I should review this 0.97

00:46:01.500 movie, give an actual proper review. We'll take a look at the trailer together. You tell me if we

00:46:04.800 should review the movie. The rest of the show is continuing now. You don't want to miss it.
