Ep. 1146 - Life, Liberty, And Being Super Duper Gay
Summary
Joe Biden signed a bill that redefines marriage and effectively outlaws the true meaning of marriage understood by Christians, Jews, Muslims, and every even semi-reasonable atheist and agnostic since time immorial. And somehow, that was not even the craziest part of the ceremony.

Joe Biden lit the White House up in rainbow colors yesterday after hosting a ceremony
00:00:04.500
with a child-obsessed groomer drag queen to sign a law that fundamentally redefines marriage,
00:00:11.220
the fundamental political unit, and effectively outlaws the true meaning of marriage understood
00:00:17.040
by Christians, Jews, Muslims, and every even semi-reasonable atheist and agnostic since
00:00:23.960
time immemorial from the public square. And somehow, that was not even the craziest part of
00:00:32.880
the show. The craziest part of the whole ceremony came when Joe Biden attempted to ground all of
00:00:41.020
this grotesquerie in the Declaration of Independence. This law matters to every single American,
00:00:48.360
no matter who you are or who you love. This shouldn't be about conservative or liberal,
00:00:54.440
red or blue. No, this is about realizing the promise of the Declaration of Independence,
00:00:59.980
a promise rooted in the sacred and secular beliefs. Forget marriage for a second. Forget
00:01:08.780
for a second the drag queens and the groomers and the rainbow colors on the White House.
00:01:13.680
This man actually said that the promises of the Declaration of Independence are rooted in sacred,
00:01:24.780
secular beliefs, which is a contradiction in terms because sacred and secular are opposites.
00:01:31.060
Sacred means connected with God. Secular means not connected with God. A thing cannot simultaneously be
00:01:40.280
both sacred and secular. It can only be one or the other. And we know which one it is when we're
00:01:46.260
talking about the Declaration. The premise of the Declaration of Independence that we all know,
00:01:51.300
we all can recite by heart, is we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
00:01:57.780
that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, and among these are life,
00:02:05.020
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The whole point is that we have certain rights and those
00:02:10.600
rights come from God. No God, no rights. That is the premise of the country. But Biden had to make
00:02:20.900
his absurd claim about secular values because he knows that this law, redefining marriage,
00:02:28.820
as a practical matter, is not really about redefining marriage, which already happened seven years ago
00:02:34.860
of the Supreme Court. This law is about suppressing religion. It's about punishing Christians and Jews
00:02:42.900
and Muslims for practicing their religion in public. It's about banishing God and anyone who wishes to
00:02:49.920
follow God from the public square. It redefines marriage, but for a broader purpose, because these
00:02:57.340
radicals know that if you redefine the fundamental unit of society, you redefine the entire political order.
00:03:04.860
I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.
00:03:14.180
Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from Chris Hansen. Is that the Chris
00:03:19.480
Hansen? Is that the sit right over here? Come on, just have a seat kind of Chris Hansen? I don't know.
00:03:23.800
It's amazing if he watches this show. He says, Michael should get fined $250 by the DW every time he makes
00:03:32.500
that grrr sound during pajamagram commercials. Excuse me, are you referring to grrr? Because
00:03:40.160
I talk about the naturally nude nightie. What do you want me to do? Okay, I'm just expressing what
00:03:45.620
I feel and what you will feel if you get the nightie, okay? And that will just help make your
00:03:50.900
home a wonderful place to live in. You got to protect that home. That's why you need a ring.
00:03:54.820
Christmas is around the corner. Many of us will be traveling to see our families and loved ones soon.
00:03:59.000
And you may find yourself away from home more often than not. That is why I have teamed up with

slash offers. The Respect for Marriage Act, one of the more Orwellian titles for a bill signed at the
00:05:03.100
White House in the most grotesque ceremony the man could possibly put on. The only thing that could
00:05:10.260
have made the show even more absurd and even more decadent would be if Joe Biden's gender-fluid,
00:05:18.800
pan-transgender nuclear waste disposal guy showed up in his stilettos with the lipstick with the
00:05:26.920
grown man wearing a leather doggy outfit on a leash. But that man, Sam Brinton, was otherwise occupied
00:05:32.420
having his mugshot taken for stealing women's luggage and clothing and jewelry. We'll get to that
00:05:36.640
in a little bit. Otherwise, Joe Biden really went all the way here. And he said that this law
00:05:43.440
represents all that is good and decent about America. You know, there's nothing more decent,
00:05:52.600
more dignified, more American that we're about what we're doing here today. It's about who we are
00:05:59.280
as a nation. It's about the substance of our laws. It's about being true to the best of the soul of
00:06:06.340
America. Whatever you think about the law, whatever you think about marriage,
00:06:12.220
there's nothing more decent. You're telling me, hold on, even look, you know, I oppose the law.
00:06:20.100
I think marriage has a meaning and it doesn't mean what the libs are pretending it means now.
00:06:24.040
But regardless, maybe you disagree with me. That's okay. But hold on, you're trying to tell me
00:06:27.720
there is nothing more decent than having weird groomer drag queens show up at the White House
00:06:33.700
and pretend that men are women and women are men. Like, even if you think that's a good thing,
00:06:39.140
you're telling me that between that and helping a little old lady cross the street,
00:06:44.540
that that is more decent. You're telling me that going out and baking a pie for, you know,
00:06:52.680
the poor little old widow that lives in your neighborhood. I don't know why these old women
00:06:56.560
keep cropping. But you're telling me that, no, no, no, baking the pie for the sweet little old
00:07:01.340
widow is not more decent than having a bunch of creepy drag queens dancing around the White House.
00:07:06.660
I just don't, it's hard to say that's the most decent, most wonderful thing to do.
00:07:15.080
Now, Biden says it's really, really decent because right now you see gay people, the LGBT community
00:07:22.260
faces terrible discrimination. And we had to right this wrong. We had to address this injustice.
00:07:30.600
Justice Thomas went even further and he wrote the following quote.
00:07:36.320
We should reconsider all the court's substantive due process presidents, including Griswold,
00:07:42.140
Lawrence, Obergefell. That means he thinks we should reconsider whether you've got the right
00:07:49.220
to access to contraception. And yes, we should reconsider whether you have the right to marry who
00:07:56.520
you love. And that's not only the challenge ahead. When a person can be married in the morning and
00:08:03.860
thrown out of a restaurant for being gay in the afternoon, this is still wrong.
00:08:09.240
Still wrong. Now, of course, neither of those things can happen.
00:08:15.960
Gay people can get married and always could get married because marriage has a meaning and marriage
00:08:20.620
involves sexual difference. Two men cannot become married to one another. They can buy a house
00:08:26.880
together. They can live a life together. They can visit each other in the hospital. They can do all
00:08:32.100
sorts of things. Nobody begrudges people doing those things, but they can't get married. It's not
00:08:39.780
possible. It's an ontological impossible. Two women cannot get married to one another. That's just not
00:08:43.940
what marriage means. And certainly they cannot be thrown out of restaurants for being gay. That
00:08:49.620
doesn't happen in America. Do you know what does happen in America? People get thrown out of
00:08:54.700
restaurants for being conservative. That happened to us two days ago. The timing of this was just
00:09:01.340
amazing because I mentioned in my all access yesterday that the Daily Wire Christmas party was
00:09:06.840
two nights ago. We had a Christmas party at a event space in Nashville. And right next to that
00:09:13.720
event space is a restaurant and a bar. It's called Hathorn Restaurant and Bar. I'd eaten there a couple
00:09:19.980
of times. It's one of these sort of fancy, hip, young, cool, bougie type places, but had perfectly
00:09:25.340
nice dinners there before. And so Daily Wire makes a reservation, gets a room at the restaurant.
00:09:30.940
We put a deposit down. This thing is good to go. And then we get a call from one of the managers of
00:09:37.740
the restaurant. Says, hey, are you guys the Daily Wire? And our assistant who was putting this
00:09:45.080
together says, yeah, yeah, that's true. And the guy who was managing the restaurant, he told us we
00:09:51.840
couldn't come. He told us we couldn't have our reservation. And I don't have his exact phrasing,
00:09:57.620
but it was something to the effect of your company means to harm me and my employees.
00:10:04.500
We're going to, we're going to harm him by, I don't know, we're going to, we're going to read him
00:10:08.280
too many Edmund Burke quotes or something. I don't know. We're going to, we're going to harm him.
00:10:12.100
We're going to, how are we going to harm him? I don't know. He couldn't provide an explanation for
00:10:16.220
that. We, the Daily Wire, probably the most buttoned up sort of bookish conservative outlet out
00:10:23.780
there. We're going to harm him somehow with what? I don't know. All of our assault statistics.
00:10:28.760
We're going to harm him with all of our very dangerous political philosophy. I don't know,
00:10:32.640
whatever it is. And so we got booted out. It wasn't just us. There was a Christian group. It
00:10:39.480
was one of the groups associated with focus on the family, went to have a dinner at a restaurant.
00:10:44.020
They threw them out for being Christian. That's what really happens. Nobody in anywhere in America
00:10:49.260
gets thrown out of a restaurant for being gay or being black or for being Muslim or for any of the
00:10:59.200
groups that the libs will tell you are under constant assault and attack in America. The people
00:11:04.780
who get denied public accommodation are conservatives and Christians. That's it. Okay. That's, that's what
00:11:11.040
really happens here. And so Joe Biden signs this law to right a wrong that isn't happening
00:11:17.200
and to, to further persecute Christians and Jews and Muslims and any ordinary agnostic person.
00:11:25.600
What this law does, it, it does not redefine marriage that already happened at the Supreme
00:11:30.380
Court level. What this law does is it repeals the Defense of Marriage Act and it, it opens up
00:11:37.620
Christian, Jewish, Muslim, any kind of business owner that thinks that marriage has a meaning.
00:11:41.700
They will now be open to lawsuits to having their, their businesses absolutely destroyed and, and
00:11:48.260
they will be destroyed. We know that this happened. This is what happened to Jack Phillips at
00:11:51.460
Masterpiece Cake Shop. This is what happened to other businesses that ever stand up against these
00:11:56.720
radical political activists. They are targeted for years and years and years until the business
00:12:01.600
is destroyed. And now they don't have the legal protections to stop that. And it wasn't just the
00:12:06.720
Democrats who voted for it. Republicans voted for it too. This bill passed 61 to 36. So there were a
00:12:13.420
bunch of squish lib, totally spineless, totally useless Republicans, people like Mitt Romney who went
00:12:21.760
along with it. This is how, this is how conservatism dies. Not with a bang, but with a whimper,
00:12:31.140
with a pathetic little squishy whimper. Okay. And you're going to die too someday. That's why you need

promo code Knowles. The libs used to say, what's it matter to you? If someone gets married,
00:13:43.220
what's it matter to you? If someone, okay, let's say they don't get married. Let's say we just
00:13:47.580
fundamentally redefine what marriage is. What's it matter to you? Who cares what two people do in
00:13:51.500
their house? Who cares? Well, they showed us what they think of their house yesterday when they lit
00:13:59.100
up the White House in rainbow colors. Again, Obama already did it when the Supreme Court and Anthony
00:14:06.380
Kennedy, the romantic poet from the Supreme Court, redefined marriage. Well, they did it a second time
00:14:11.200
now. Who cares? Who cares? I don't know who cares. I mean, I care, I guess. I care because this is
00:14:19.540
political and I am supposed to have some say in my government. We are notionally a self-government
00:14:25.180
still. Who cares what we say about marriage? Well, I care. It's the fundamental political
00:14:29.640
institution. How does it affect you? How does it affect me that you are now broadcasting a brand new,
00:14:38.420
not only social, but religious message from the White House? This is religious. This is making
00:14:44.280
religious claims. Joe Biden made religious claims. Joe Biden made the claim that our rights and the
00:14:49.520
constitution don't come from God. He said they're secular values. They're disconnected from God.
00:14:54.260
That is an irreligious statement is really what it is. It's an overt denial of God's role in giving us
00:15:04.620
our rights. And obviously, without God, we couldn't have any rights. Who gives us the rights? Who gives
00:15:11.440
us the law? Who gives us this whole world? Who's the creator? Biden doesn't answer those questions.
00:15:17.880
He just says it's not God. This is so radical. What's it matter to you? Come on, who cares? What's
00:15:24.320
the big deal if we issue certain Supreme Court decisions that lead to the sexual revolution?
00:15:33.460
Going all the way back to Griswold and Eisenstadt and Lawrence and now Bergefell and all the rest of
00:15:39.840
them that just find in the constitution all sorts of things that aren't there. You might like condoms very
00:15:46.460
much. Show me the right to condoms in the constitution. Show me the right to eccentric
00:15:51.300
sexual practices in the constitution. Show me the right to, or the mandate to radically redefine
00:15:57.200
marriage away from what everyone throughout history has thought it was in the constitution. It's just
00:15:59.960
not there. But why do they do this sort of thing? Well, how does it affect you? How does it affect me
00:16:04.700
what the constitution says? How does it affect me what religion the White House is establishing on its
00:16:09.900
portico? How does it affect me whether or not I can run a business that, that, and not be forced
00:16:17.460
to participate in acts that I consider to be immoral and sacrilegious? How does that affect me? It
00:16:22.520
affects me. How does it affect me what the fundamental unit of society is? Who cares? Who cares? The left
00:16:27.640
cares, dummies. I'm not talking to you. You people listening understand, but, but the squishes and the
00:16:32.780
libs and the Mitt Romneys don't understand. How does it affect you? Who cares? The left cares. That's
00:16:40.140
why the left has spent so much time and money trying to get this done. Ultimately, with the
00:16:47.340
acquiescence of you, squishes and libs, Mitt Romney. That's why. Oh, who cares what pronouns we use?
00:16:53.140
The libs obviously care. Maybe they care for a reason. Who cares which bathrooms people go into?
00:16:58.740
The libs obviously care. Maybe they care for a reason. Maybe. Who cares what the meaning of
00:17:03.260
marriage is? The libs care. Maybe they care because they recognize that words and symbols have
00:17:08.420
meaning. And if you can pervert language, if you can pervert the signs and symbols in the way that
00:17:13.100
we perceive ourselves in the world, then you can control the whole political culture. If you control
00:17:18.040
the language, you can control people's minds. This is, of course, the thesis of my book,
00:17:21.460
Speechless, Controlling Words, Controlling Minds. Number one national bestseller will still arrive in time
00:17:25.920
for Christmas. Head on over to your favorite bookshop today. Make sure to order several
00:17:30.380
copies. Now, I don't want to leave you hopeless here. With a little bit of hope,
00:17:35.620
this law repeals the Defense of Marriage Act. Just, what, 16 years ago, Joe Biden went on TV and he
00:17:43.960
defended the Defense of Marriage Act. And he said, I voted for the Defense of Marriage Act. And that's the
00:17:47.440
law of the land. And we're not going to have gay marriage. And that's the end of it. And now,
00:17:50.860
of course, Joe Biden's making the absolute opposite arguments. And that's because Joe Biden doesn't
00:17:54.800
believe anything. And he just blows in the wind. And he's completely unprincipled. And he's a liar.
00:17:59.260
He's been a liar for his whole public career, more so even than most politicians. Well, this should
00:18:04.220
give us a little bit of hope. Because if the Democrats can repeal the Defense of Marriage Act,
00:18:10.460
then we can repeal the so-called Respect for Marriage Act. We can. We can do it in principle.
00:18:15.540
We should do it. The reason that we might not be able to do it in practice is because of the libs and
00:18:20.120
the squishes. And they want to discourage us. And they want to tell us it's all lost. It's not all lost.
00:18:24.100
The Democrats didn't say it's all lost after DOMA. The Democrats didn't say, oh, we have to give up.
00:18:29.340
It's the law of the land now. We've got to give up. No, they just worked consistently for 16 years
00:18:34.620
to repeal it. More than 16 years. Going back to the 90s, they worked to repeal it. And we can do
00:18:40.180
the same thing. And we should do the same thing. We shouldn't let the libs and the squishes and the
00:18:43.300
Mitt Romneys stop us. Now, Whoopi Goldberg has a theory as to why certain Republicans voted for this
00:18:49.760
radical act that beyond whatever you think about marriage, that's almost secondary to what this act
00:18:55.380
does. The act prohibiting the practice of Christianity and Judaism and Islam and reasonableness
00:19:01.380
in an important way in the public square. Here's Whoopi's theory as to why some Republicans went along
00:19:06.800
with it. Anytime somebody decides that they want to get married, celebrate them. Celebrate them.
00:19:13.460
Don't tell them that it's like Jim Crow laws voting for that. Because you're giving the finger
00:19:20.180
to lots of married couples. And I suspect many of these folks voted the way they did because
00:19:26.160
somebody they know said, if you don't vote this way, I'll never speak to you again. Perhaps a lover,
00:19:30.580
maybe a friend. Wait, what? Did you catch that at the end? She goes, yeah, it's because
00:19:35.980
these Republicans, people in their lives told them that if you vote this way,
00:19:40.880
I'll never speak to you again. And maybe that person's a lover.
00:19:45.560
Tee hee hee. Maybe these Republicans, maybe they have gay lovers, secret gay lovers.
00:19:50.060
And their gay lovers were going to be really upset with them if they didn't vote for this. Tee hee hee.
00:19:54.900
Tee hee hee hee. So I don't, I don't think, look, I don't particularly care for Mitt Romney.
00:19:59.660
He drives me up a wall. I don't think the guy's got a gay lover. I don't think that's why he voted
00:20:03.500
for this stupid bill. Okay. Same with these other people who voted for it. But this is always where
00:20:10.100
the libs go. They say, if you oppose their agenda, if you, if you think that drag queens shouldn't go
00:20:15.620
read stories to kindergartners, say, well, why is it? Because you're secretly gay? Huh? Which is kind
00:20:20.860
of funny because on the one hand, the libs are saying there's absolutely nothing wrong with being
00:20:24.820
gay. It's actually the most wonderful thing in the world. Everybody should be gay. And then on the other
00:20:28.280
hand, they're saying, yeah, what are you? Are you a gay? Like it's an insult. You know, yeah.
00:20:32.440
If you ever disagree with this, we're going to call you gay, which is really wonderful. And it's the
00:20:36.420
most wonderful thing in the world. Except when you do it, you gay guy, you dumb gay, gay person. You're
00:20:40.440
like, like they're, you know, in fourth grade on the playground. So they, there's a little bit of a
00:20:44.600
contradiction. You might even call it homophobic if you ask me, but let's just go with Whoopi for a
00:20:50.480
second. Let's say that this is why certain Republicans voted for it because they all,
00:20:55.680
they all have secret gay lovers. That, that part is, is probably not true, but everyone does have
00:21:04.180
something, you know, everybody's got a past. Everybody's got skeletons. Everybody's done
00:21:07.860
plenty of bad things that they're ashamed of. And a lot of it is sexual because man is such a sexual
00:21:13.040
being, but some of it's not sexual. Maybe it's a financial fraud. Maybe it's some other kind of
00:21:17.800
political scandal. Maybe it's a family matter. Maybe it's whatever. It is a good reminder
00:21:24.680
that you should live a clean life or you should endeavor to live the cleanest life you can
00:21:30.100
because it's good for your soul and it will be conducive to your salvation in a virtuous society.
00:21:36.140
But also because your enemies want you to live dirty and they want you to live dirty because it
00:21:42.020
can entrap you because they can blackmail you because they'll have dirt on you. Okay. This is one
00:21:46.640
of the oldest tricks in the book in the, in the darker corners of politics, espionage,
00:21:52.880
political blackmail, all of it. You, you, you have these kinds of honeypot operations where you try
00:21:59.280
to get a guy to cheat on his wife, or you try to get a guy to take a bribe, or you try to get a guy
00:22:04.140
to just do something dirty and you do it because that will give you an upper hand on them. And we're
00:22:09.780
living in a world right now that is defined by data. Increasingly companies and governments are just
00:22:15.180
getting every ounce of data that, that you possess. They're, they're prying it out of you
00:22:21.360
without you even knowing it. They're, they're monitoring your eye movements on your phone to
00:22:25.060
see what you're looking at when you're scrolling up and down social media apps. I think this is
00:22:29.340
in large part why the powerful institutions in our culture are pushing pornography on people.
00:22:36.440
I think it's because it compromises people. I think it's because it gives everyone such a sense
00:22:40.820
of shame and fear and blackmail that, that they, they just acquiesce. It gives the people
00:22:48.120
who are in power even more power. It's no different than J. Edgar Hoover running the FBI
00:22:55.820
getting dirt and compromise on people. It's no different than the KGB getting compromise on people.
00:23:00.820
And so you, you've got to be aware of that just in your personal life. This is how they think.
00:23:05.320
They think, yeah, well, we're going to tell people about your gay lover. Yeah,
00:23:08.920
we're going to tell people that all your dirty habits. Yeah. If you don't go along with us,
00:23:13.280
it is what, what it has always been a method of, of gaining more control. So you don't want to do
00:23:23.300
that. You don't want to do these terrible things. You don't, you know, you don't want to cheat on
00:23:26.440
your wife. You don't want to, okay. In fact, marriage is so wonderful because you can give fully
00:23:32.940
of yourself. Okay. And you can, you can love your wife. I'm thinking of song of songs. All right. I'm
00:23:37.020
thinking of just what a wonderful thing that can be. And one way to, you know, even increase that
00:23:43.160
sort of desire that you have for your spouse would be with a pajamagram. Right now, go to

00:25:02.120
the lipstick stiletto wearing doggy leather leading man around on a leash guy from the Department of
00:25:08.400
Energy, he's been arrested and he's got a mugshot out there and he looks a lot more normal in the mugshot
00:25:14.340
than he ever did in his office at the Department of Energy. I've got an unpopular opinion. This is
00:25:21.220
unpopular, so I'm giving you fair warning. I feel sorry for Sam Brinton. I actually feel sorry for the
00:25:29.860
guy. Yes, he's left of Lenin. Yes, he seems to be a huge liar. Yes, he seems to have made up a lot of
00:25:37.980
his biography. The center of his political biography is that he was subjected to conversion therapy as a
00:25:45.960
child. You know, that thing that doesn't exist. It was conversion therapy and his awful parents
00:25:51.320
tried to make him not be gay or transgender or into the leather puppy costumes or whatever he's
00:25:58.280
into. And that's what set him on his political journey. But that story started to fall apart
00:26:02.820
because he wouldn't mention who this evil doctor who tortured him was. He then got really fuzzy on
00:26:08.340
the details. Then he said it actually happened in his 20s, not when he was a child or a teenager.
00:26:12.400
And even LGBTQ Nation, obviously a left-wing publication, has admitted, okay, this guy's
00:26:20.040
story really doesn't check out. But I really feel sorry for Sam Brinton because he's obviously
00:26:25.860
deeply mentally ill. He's obviously got all sorts of problems and disordered desires.
00:26:31.340
And that's true of a lot of people. It's no excuse necessarily for just totally bad, depraved behavior.
00:26:37.400
Except for this. In the past, when people had mental illnesses and disorders and delusions and
00:26:45.720
weird desires and stuff, the culture, the society would try to help that person, would try to treat
00:26:53.740
some of those illnesses, would try to dispel some of those delusions, would try to give these people
00:27:01.580
proper therapy, proper therapy, that would say, no, you're not really a woman, you're a man.
00:27:08.080
No, you shouldn't drag men around on leashes and weird leather costumes. No, don't wear lipstick.
00:27:14.340
Boys don't wear lipstick. That's wrong. Unless you're David Bowie, take the lipstick off.
00:27:18.120
No, men don't wear the stiletto heels. No, men, you're a man. And what that means is certain things.
00:27:25.240
And you're supposed to dress this way and do this kind of thing. And that's going to give you a better
00:27:28.780
life. And in our culture, what happened was exactly the opposite. In our culture,
00:27:35.660
every single delusion and disordered desire that Sam Brinton has ever had has been affirmed
00:27:42.740
and celebrated by the culture. We know who he is because he engages in all these kinds of crazy
00:27:49.500
antics and puts them all over social media and gives lectures about all of his bizarre disordered
00:27:54.480
sexual desires and how much he loves indulging them. And he gets celebrated by the establishment
00:28:01.060
media for it. And he's, he's put up as an icon of civil rights and inclusivity. I promise you,
00:28:09.780
had this guy not just gotten arrested for stealing women's clothing and luggage,
00:28:12.780
he would have been at that White House ceremony. Joe Biden probably would have mentioned him by name
00:28:17.940
because the administration has put him forward as a symbol of trans. And so I just, I feel bad for
00:28:24.860
the guy because he's been abused by society. It has been criminal neglect and negligence that our
00:28:33.940
society has engaged in with regard to this guy and with regard to so many other people. When, when the
00:28:39.280
crazy purple haired people show up at my lectures and scream at me about how I'm not respecting trans,
00:28:45.080
pans, pans, dual spirit rights or whatever, I have a great deal of pity for them because very often
00:28:51.340
these are young people and they have been indulged since the time they were five years old. And they've
00:28:57.420
been groomed, frankly, by their, by their educators in many cases. And so it's not their fault.
00:29:03.740
Exactly. It's not their fault. They're, they were raised in this way where in the old way you'd be
00:29:08.580
raised to tamp down your base passions and cultivate your higher reason and your rational will. Today it's
00:29:13.560
exactly the opposite. We're told don't trust your higher reason. We're told that your moral conscience
00:29:18.760
is a liar. We're told that the institutions that once formed good, normal, flourishing people,
00:29:24.040
they're all evil. Forget them. All you should do is indulge your, your appetites. You should,
00:29:30.160
we should be fat positive. You should never stop eating. You should indulge gluttony. You should be
00:29:34.860
sex positive. You should cultivate your lusts. The weirder your lusts, the better and indulge them
00:29:40.060
all the time. We're told that you should, you should give vent to all of your passions, your wrath,
00:29:45.520
your anger. If you're, if you're feeling some kind of passion, don't just suppress it. Don't cultivate
00:29:51.060
patience. It's not a spirit of resignation. No, no, you got to let it out. And you've especially got to
00:29:56.200
hate your parents and you've got to hate the culture that you were raised in because it's evil
00:29:59.800
and terrible. And ultimately you should hate yourself and you should, you should not ever even
00:30:04.540
consider God as existing, much less seek a relationship with him. That's all hooey for a
00:30:08.660
bunch of knuckle dragging cavemen. No, no, not you. You're sophisticated. You just need to worship at
00:30:13.420
the altar of what? The altar of our decadent culture. People have been taught this since
00:30:16.880
they're five years old. Is it any wonder they turn out like Sam Brinton? We got a nation of Sam
00:30:20.820
Brintons. That guy's not unusual these days. I mean, it's, it's unusual. You know, we all look at him
00:30:27.620
as unusual. There was a survey that said that one in five, more than one in five Zoomers identify as
00:30:33.520
LGBTQ, identify as queer. Sam Brinton is increasingly becoming the norm. And that's when something
00:30:40.500
becomes the norm, that's not merely the fault of individuals. That's the fault of the culture
00:30:45.520
and of the society. You want to talk about our trashy culture? There's a new show. I'll probably
00:30:50.640
watch some of it. It's on TLC. It's making the rounds right now. Set your cues, put it in your calendar.
00:31:04.020
Life has given me some curveball. I think it's my time to find love.
00:31:09.040
I was married for 14 years. I want to get a chance to do me a little.
00:31:12.880
Young men have much more energy. They think out of the box. I want that.
00:31:18.300
I am in this amazing, beautiful mansion here in Mexico. This is a perfect place to find love.
00:31:29.660
Welcome to the villa. You're about to embark on a dating experience like none other.
00:31:39.700
Is that too much saying I have an extremely high libido? Should I just have said high libido?
00:31:48.760
I'm ready to connect with somebody who doesn't really care how old I am.
00:32:14.560
I probably won't watch it only because I don't subscribe to cable.
00:32:20.580
Okay, this is really reality TV just at its absolute peak.
00:32:31.560
And it did just get real in the whole premise of the show.
00:32:38.100
I won't go through the whole initialism or the whole acronym.
00:32:40.920
But the first letter there refers to moms, mothers.
00:32:49.100
Because it's not just these young people who think that they have no consequences in their lives.
00:32:52.780
And they really don't have a lot of accountability in their day-to-day social life.
00:32:56.580
And so they go out and it's the real world or it's the Jersey Shore or something like that.
00:33:00.080
These are people with children that are supposed to have families that they're raising.
00:33:08.000
They're on some island in a manor for the express purpose of whoring around.
00:33:16.880
They're being paid to go engage in weird kind of degenerate sexual performances with young guys on camera.
00:33:27.220
That's actually different from the other TV shows that do exactly the same thing.
00:33:41.620
But the other thing that makes MILF Manor noteworthy.
00:33:47.060
And that tells you so much about our culture that we're living in today.
00:33:51.940
And why we're even talking about it is because the premise is absurd.
00:33:59.080
Young men, generally speaking, don't want to sleep with older mothers.
00:34:05.100
Maybe there's a few guys out there who that's, you know,
00:34:12.680
If the show were in the reverse, if the show were older guys who leave their wives and then sleep with younger women,
00:34:23.300
I'm not saying it's a good thing, but that does happen.
00:34:27.620
You see a lot of couples where there's an older guy and a younger woman.
00:34:31.800
You see very, very few couples where it's an older woman and a younger guy.
00:34:35.160
And I think that is part of why TLC is pushing this sort of thing.
00:34:43.540
Our culture subverts expectations, transgresses norms left and right.
00:34:49.800
Does this all the way at the White House with the colors and the definition of marriage and the way that the officials dress.
00:34:57.940
Our culture does this in what is taught in the schools and the universities.
00:35:02.320
Our culture does this at pretty much every turn, even in reality TV.
00:35:10.920
The fact that, I mean, now you look at advertisements for lingerie, advertisements for clothing.
00:35:16.620
It used to be that you would have really, really physically beautiful people modeling clothing.
00:35:25.580
They say, yeah, we're going to get the most out of shape models that you ever saw.
00:35:35.280
I mean, at every turn, you see wickedness substituted for goodness.
00:35:40.960
Our culture no longer values goodness and virtue, but quite the opposite, actually.
00:35:46.560
In our popular culture, you don't see the art and TV shows and books and movies elevating heroes.
00:35:55.820
It's always guys who are really bad in the end.
00:35:58.080
You think of the popular age of TV, Tony Soprano, Walter White, Don Draper, Saul Goodman, all, I mean, the list goes on and on and on.
00:36:11.660
And you see the culture elevating ugliness over beauty.
00:36:16.180
It's probably a pretty funny TV show because of how absurd that is.
00:36:19.160
But it is partaking in its own little corner of the exact same subversion and upending of reality that you are seeing everywhere else.
00:36:28.280
And speaking of absurdity, well, this is a great example of where you see this play out in political life.
00:36:34.080
We're now told that the good guys are the criminals and the bad guys are the cops.
00:36:38.620
That's what we've been told this for years now, as the Democrats have called to defund the police, abolish the police, let the criminals off the hook.
00:36:48.060
And the victims of the crimes, they're really the oppressors because it was their fault and society's fault that the criminals turned out the way that they did in the first place.
00:37:00.580
And so now the governor of Oregon is going to commute the sentences of people on death row.
00:37:08.520
It's time for all the conservative aunts, mothers, daughters, sisters to take their place at the table.
00:37:14.080
This year, you are not just bringing truth bombs, okay?
00:37:21.740
Ladies, the men in your life are under constant assault.
00:37:28.460
It's time to wash out the woke and give your guys a gift that will uphold what they believe and make them look and smell better.
00:37:36.380
That would be Jeremy's new hair, skin, and body care gift bundles.
00:37:56.600
This coiffure that I bring to you every single day on the show?
00:38:00.760
That's how it's some of the best shampoo I've ever used.
00:38:02.920
It's not full of harmful, gross, industrial chemicals.
00:38:10.640
Next time you're just cozying up to your husband, you give a little smell like you're Joe Biden smelling the back of his head, you'll be smelling me, okay?
00:38:19.800
And many, many conservative men out there who are not giving our money to companies who hate us.
00:38:24.940
They've got their wonderful Precision 5 razor, flip-back trimmer.
00:38:28.700
All you conservative familial characters out there, make your presence felt and much appreciated this Christmas.
00:38:37.800
Today is your last day to order, to receive in time for the big merry day.
00:38:50.680
You know who else is going to be celebrating this year?
00:38:55.320
The most vicious criminals who have committed crimes that are so heinous that even in our day of age, which is opposed to the death penalty, they received the death penalty.
00:39:07.820
Honestly, we're talking some of the worst people walking around, and the Oregon Democrat Governor Kate Brown just commuted all of the state's death sentences, and she's given them life without the possibility of parole.
00:39:27.740
She said, I have long believed that justice is not advanced by taking a life, and the state should not be in the business of executing people,
00:39:35.740
even if a terrible crime placed them in prison.
00:39:39.980
That is what the libs believe now, and I'm sorry to say that's even what many conservatives believe now.
00:39:46.120
I'm sorry to say that's even what many Catholics believe now.
00:39:48.600
And the Catholic Church always had a very clear view on this, but in recent years, some popes even, and other people in the Catholic Church have suggested that the death penalty is evil, which is just insane.
00:40:03.880
That has never been the teaching of the church, going back to St. Paul, going back to all the doctors of the church.
00:40:10.200
I've mentioned this before, but even Blessed Pius IX, who is a pope, the last pope to control the papal states, and he's been beatified on his way to canonization, on his way to being officially named a saint.
00:40:21.820
He oversaw the executions of some 500 people in the papal states.
00:40:26.840
So it was never considered to be in Christendom and throughout the West, throughout even as the West pulled away a little bit from its overtly Christian founding and animation.
00:40:39.860
Still, we defended capital punishment until relatively recently.
00:40:45.700
And one of the reasons why is people say, well, it's not just.
00:40:50.740
Whosoever takes the life of a man, whosoever sheds the blood of a man, by man shall his blood be shed.
00:41:05.940
Now, what's the next line after, whosoever sheds the blood of a man, by man shall his blood be shed.
00:41:11.600
For man is made in the image and likeness of God.
00:41:13.780
So people will say, well, it's a contrary to human dignity for the state to execute criminals.
00:41:22.780
It is an affirmation that we take so seriously the dignity and value of human beings as people made in the image and likeness of God.
00:41:34.480
That if you kill someone, we will kill you back.
00:41:48.640
And these days, we're told by bogus social scientists that deterrence doesn't really work.
00:41:57.320
That's why we still have a criminal justice system.
00:42:00.440
But we have to pretend, based on a bunch of bogus studies, that actually, no, the punishments that we don't like, they actually don't deter any crimes.
00:42:08.360
And for rehabilitation, we say the only purpose of criminal justice is rehabilitation.
00:42:13.320
And obviously, the death penalty doesn't rehabilitate anybody.
00:42:17.840
By the way, I think the death penalty does rehabilitate people.
00:42:20.700
I think that, as Dr. Johnson pointed out, depend upon it, sir.
00:42:25.440
When a man knows he's to be hanged in a fortnight, it concentrates his mind wonderfully.
00:42:31.800
I think that, actually, the death penalty can rehabilitate people, in many cases, much better than life in prison could.
00:42:37.480
Because they will have to face the fact of their death.
00:42:43.420
So I think the death penalty has a medicinal effect as well.
00:42:46.420
But furthermore, the primary purpose of criminal justice is not deterrence, and it's not rehabilitation.
00:43:04.240
It's the only way to justify putting people in prison or killing them.
00:43:08.800
It's the only way to justify it because you can deter people from committing crimes by killing all sorts of people in ways that might not be just, that might not be proportionate.
00:43:23.180
If you just had a crazy, tyrannical regime that engaged in a reign of terror, that would probably keep people in line pretty well.
00:43:30.740
You probably wouldn't even raise an eyebrow at the regime if they were just lopping off the heads of anyone who opposed them.
00:43:35.520
That would deter people, but it wouldn't be very just.
00:43:40.700
Well, if rehabilitation were the primary purpose of prison and capital punishment, well, then you and I would probably end up in prison at any given time.
00:43:55.360
Could use a little, but I haven't committed a crime.
00:43:57.080
And therefore, it would be unjust for me to go to prison.
00:44:02.540
That is the primary purpose of prison and criminal justice and capital punishment.
00:44:09.520
You face these punishments because you have committed a crime.
00:44:14.640
And certain crimes are so heinous that human dignity strongly recommends the use of capital punishment because the state, the civil authority, does not wield the sword in vain.
00:44:29.100
But today, we're so morally idiotic that we can't think about that.
00:44:33.720
When was the last time that you heard a prominent politician say the purpose of criminal justice is to punish people for committing crimes?
00:44:42.820
That's completely lost, even among the people who should know better.
00:44:51.880
Well, now we're saying that the rights and the values that we have, they're all secular values anyway.
00:44:57.300
And the President of the United States is saying that.
00:44:59.000
The allegedly devout Catholic President of the United States.
00:45:01.360
Is it any wonder that the rest of us are confused too?
00:45:03.860
Speaking of dignity, one of the least dignified displays I have ever seen occurred yesterday.
00:45:12.280
I almost didn't want to play this on the show because it makes me feel ashamed to be a Republican.
00:45:24.180
John Boehner, the former Republican Speaker of the House, appeared yesterday at the Capitol.
00:45:33.920
It was broadcast on C-SPAN to pay tribute to Democrat, soon to be former Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.
00:45:42.780
And he didn't just do it as a perfunctory, well, you know, we disagreed on things, but you served your country.
00:45:52.380
The former Republican leader in the House, just blubbering about how much he admires Nancy Pelosi.
00:46:00.420
Madam Speaker, I have to say, my girls told me, tell the Speaker how much we admire her.
00:46:11.420
I thought you couldn't tell my girls were Democrats.
00:46:27.640
Tell the Speaker, I just told you, Nancy, I love you so much, Nancy.
00:46:38.640
Is it any wonder why Donald Trump got elected in 2016?
00:46:41.500
Is it any wonder why Republicans, conservatives, just despise the Republican Party?
00:46:49.560
The Republicans get elected so that they can go to Washington, D.C., and pretend to put up a fight.
00:46:57.840
And then at all the crucial moments, to squish and to concede and to give the Democrats what they want.
00:47:06.320
They get elected so that they can go be court jesters in the kingdom of liberalism.
00:47:14.160
It's been in all the newspapers that John Boehner likes to take a dram every now and again, you know,
00:47:19.920
or more specifically, red wine, you know, he can toss him back.
00:47:24.480
And a lot of people say that the reason that he cries and blubbers all the time is because of that.
00:47:30.540
I don't have any particular evidence that John Boehner is an alcoholic, and I actually don't want to spread that rumor or anything because I just don't know.
00:47:38.560
In a way, I almost sort of hope that he is because it would explain this behavior more so than if he were absolutely stone cold sober all the time.
00:47:44.960
I'd say, well, something is even more wrong here about that.
00:47:48.000
But regardless, we can see John Boehner cannot control himself.
00:47:54.960
John Boehner famously cries in public all the time.
00:47:57.320
And this is supposed to be endearing, according to especially the liberal media.
00:48:05.940
Now we're told real men cry all the time, and they whine, and they cry, and they're actually women.
00:48:22.600
You've got to be able to control all of your base passions and emotions and reign them in.
00:48:42.320
Jay Leno just lit his face on fire, and now he's telling jokes about it.
00:48:52.800
That'll be the cliffhanger that I'm leaving you with on this public portion of the show,
00:48:56.680
because now we've got to get to the member block.
00:49:04.600
This 14-year-old girl is being denied the kidney transplant by Duke Medical
00:49:12.080
the vaccine that we now know is not nearly as safe as they told us it was.
00:49:16.880
The vaccine that we now know is not nearly as effective as they told us that it was.
00:49:21.440
The vaccine that we now know does not really do all that much for younger people.
00:49:28.260
Well, it does certain things to younger people, but none of them seem very good.
00:49:31.220
And the doctors at Duke Medical seem prepared to let a 14-year-old girl die
00:49:41.560
rather than let her receive the kidney transplant
00:49:44.060
without getting the experimental drug that Dr. Fauci's been peddling.
00:49:47.600
We will be speaking to that young girl's mother.
