On Tuesday, Prince and Princess Privacy, Harry and Meghan Markle claimed to have been involved
00:00:06.640
in a, quote, near catastrophic car chase at the hands of a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi.
00:00:14.540
A, quote, relentless pursuit lasting over two hours, resulting in multiple near collisions
00:00:21.200
involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians, and two NYPD officers. Wow, quite the story.
00:00:30.000
I was just waiting for the part where Meghan held onto her Subway sandwich while the Nigerian
00:00:34.900
white supremacist paparazzi told her that Manhattan is MAGA country. And I was not
00:00:40.540
the only person, perhaps, to be skeptical of the story. For starters, the story resembled the car
00:00:49.480
chase that ended with the death of Harry's mother, Diana, almost perfectly. Few other facts that raised
00:00:56.240
some doubts about the Markle's claims include the testimony of the NYPD, which observed that the
00:01:03.060
couple, quote, arrived at their destination and there were no reported collisions, summonses,
00:01:07.720
injuries, or arrests. As well as the testimony of the cabbie, who said, quote, I never felt like I
00:01:13.320
was in danger. It wasn't like a car chase in a movie. As well as the fact that it's New York City,
00:01:18.820
one of the most congested places on earth where it is not possible to have a two hour or even a two
00:01:25.880
minute car chase because the traffic is always so bad. Even the liberal mayor of New York was not
00:01:32.880
buying it. I would find it hard to believe that there was a two hour high speed chase. That would be,
00:01:40.640
I find it hard to believe, but we will find out the exact duration of it.
00:01:44.760
It's a very diplomatic way of saying it's just total BS. And it's not just the Markles.
00:01:51.880
Okay. If it were just the Markles, I'd let it go. We wouldn't open the show this way,
00:01:55.860
but it's not just the Markles. It's the Markles and the media and the FBI and pretty much the whole
00:02:04.560
regime. We are ruled by a bunch of BS artists. That is the inevitable consequence of a culture
00:02:13.860
that shirks duty and favors fantasy and rejects the very notion of truth.
00:02:22.060
I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show.
00:02:31.140
Welcome back to the show. We've got breaking news. I don't know if you've got a push notification on
00:02:37.520
your phone. Starbucks India has gone trans. We'll get to that in just a moment to that very important
00:02:44.560
story. First though, speaking of lovebirds, did you feel it? Did the wind blow through your hair
00:02:53.660
as we slid further down that slippery slope? Because you can go over to the chalkboard,
00:03:00.100
you can put down another correct prediction for the social conservatives. We've slid further down
00:03:08.060
the slippery slope. I think the score right now is 10 bazillion to zero in terms of predictions,
00:03:12.660
but it doesn't really matter because the social conservatives continue to be right and the liberals
00:03:17.000
continue to get whatever they want. This time on polygamy and polyamory. Remember when the conservatives,
00:03:24.960
those crazy fuddy-duddy neurotic conservatives, they said when the libs were trying to redefine
00:03:32.740
marriage that if we redefine marriage to include two men and two women, that pretty soon we're going
00:03:40.380
to redefine marriage to include polygamy and polyamory. And it's going to be not just one man
00:03:46.300
and another man, but one man and three women and two billy goats and a sheep. And guess what happened?
00:03:51.800
And that's exactly what happened from the New York Times. Quote, interested in polyamory? Check out
00:03:58.800
these places. Subheader, laws granting rights to people in polyamorous relationships are being
00:04:06.440
recognized in more cities. Now to be clear, this isn't polygamy yet. This isn't redefining marriage
00:04:13.580
yet. This is the first step. This is the civil unions of orgies. Okay. The, the first step is
00:04:23.300
we're just going to give some rights. So what does it matter? Love is love. Who cares? Why are you such
00:04:27.680
a fuddy-duddy? We're not redefining marriage to include polygamy. Okay. You crazy person.
00:04:32.240
And then within a matter of years at most, we're going to start seeing these, these new rights that
00:04:40.020
we're extending to some people who are just a little bit different. That's going to be extended
00:04:44.040
to redefining marriage if it hasn't been totally abolished already. Article Jace Knight had heard
00:04:51.160
about Somerville, Massachusetts while working on a PhD at the University of Alabama in 2020.
00:04:56.560
The small city had recently passed a law granting domestic partnership rights like the ability to
00:05:04.120
receive employment benefits or make hospital visits to people in polyamorous relationships.
00:05:10.020
Mix Knight, that's what they do now instead of Mr. and Miss and Mrs. Even the feminist Ms.
00:05:17.540
Now the people who are confused about their sex, they do MX period. Mix Knight, who is non-binary and has
00:05:23.960
been non-monogamous since 2014, was impressed. In late March, Somerville passed two more laws
00:05:31.180
extending the rights of non-monogamous residents, this time banning discrimination on the basis of
00:05:37.800
family or relationship structure in city employment and housing. Similar ordinance focused on housing
00:05:43.240
is currently being discussed in Somerville City. And that's because Mix Knight has two partners and a
00:05:52.020
partner of one of those partners and the, you get the point. There are a bunch of other people like
00:05:56.900
this, a bunch of other towns doing this. It's always the same script. It's always, we just want
00:06:03.720
to visit people in the hospital. You know, you can change hospital rules, right? You don't need to
00:06:07.920
fundamentally redefine marriage and man and woman. You can just change visitation rules within the
00:06:15.160
hospitals themselves. Well, we, and we want certain non-discrimination rights. I don't know if you're
00:06:20.400
a complete degenerate who has orgies all the time and is living in this bizarre arrangement where no one
00:06:28.700
knows anybody's sex and you're all doing weird stuff all the time with multiple people. I, I feel I should
00:06:35.060
be able to discriminate against you. Discriminate meaning distinguish from one thing to another.
00:06:42.120
If I got two candidates for a job, thank goodness I'm not in the position to hire anybody or the NLRB
00:06:47.920
would probably be on my back already before the end of this show. But if I were, I'm just saying
00:06:52.980
this hypothetically in principle, if I were going to hire somebody and I wanted to hire, I don't know,
00:06:59.620
a guy to look after my house, someone to look after my kids, let's say especially, but let's say just
00:07:05.520
someone to look after my property. And I had two choices. I had a guy who was an upright family man,
00:07:11.180
married, took care of his responsibilities, you know, went to church on Sunday. So just a good,
00:07:17.640
a good guy all around. And then I've got this other guy who doesn't know that he's a guy and
00:07:22.120
who's constantly engaging in weird Bacchanals and orgies and is just so hyper-focused on sex and porn
00:07:30.440
and obscenity. That's the only thing that goes between one ear and the other. It's basically melted
00:07:34.920
his brain. Which person do you think is going to be more responsible to do the job? Which person is
00:07:40.900
going to have a better grasp on reality and morality and the way that people are supposed
00:07:47.440
to behave? But according to Somerville, Massachusetts, you're not, you're not allowed to even perceive that
00:07:55.920
distinction. Haven't we gone a little bit far? Wouldn't you say there's a little bit of drift here
00:08:03.580
from, hey, don't unjustly discriminate against the El Salvadoran over the Italian or something
00:08:11.940
versus, hey, don't discriminate between people who can't even understand the difference between men
00:08:19.220
and women to say nothing of the fundamental political structure. If you cannot discriminate
00:08:24.700
on the basis of what people think a family is, then what you're saying is you can't discriminate
00:08:33.040
on the, on the fundamental political structure because that's the basic political unit.
00:08:38.660
But the libs are discriminating. Of course the libs are discriminating. If you think that marriage is
00:08:44.020
and family is what it always has been, you're out, man. Your views are not accepted anymore.
00:08:49.840
You will be discriminated against in the culture and through the law. And what will be discriminated
00:08:57.180
for is going to be Mick's night with his 17 partners and their 22 partners and the billy goat.
00:09:05.760

00:09:43.200
I purchased GenuCell as a gift for my girlfriend. She said she saw the results so fast,

her skin is noticeably softer and smoother. I can see and feel a difference too. She was already

beautiful and GenuCell has made her more beautiful. And I'll tell you, I assumed GenuCell, I figured it

K-N-O-W-L-E-S. Speaking of slippery slopes, some good news on this front. Bud Light continues to
00:10:40.540
collapse. This is now, I think, the fifth week in a row. Retail data from Bump Williams Consulting
00:10:47.580
and Nielsen IQ indicate that Bud Light sales have declined 23.6% in the week ending May 6th,
00:10:56.480
relative to the same period last year. This is an even worse decline than for the week ending
00:11:03.420
April 29th, which was an even worse decline than the week before and the week before and the week
00:11:08.320
before. Not only is Bud Light dealing with this decline in sales, but the other transizer Bush
00:11:16.420
companies are also dealing with this decline in sales. Budweiser, Bud Heavy sales have fallen
00:11:21.880
11.4% the week ending April 29th and 9.7% the week ending May 6th. Michelob Ultra fell 4.3%,
00:11:30.700
2.9% respectively. Natty Light has fallen 5.2% and 2.5% respectively. So all of those companies are
00:11:41.220
feeling the downstream effects of Bud Light and they continue to lose ground, though at least for
00:11:47.500
them it seems to be leveling off. For Bud Light, not only are they losing sales massively, it's still
00:11:55.420
getting worse. It shows no sign of letting up. Conservatives are showing no sign of giving up.
00:12:03.480
Bud Light is not the only company going pro-trans. Obviously, we'll get to Starbucks India in just a
00:12:08.000
moment. But this is a message. This to me feels a little bit different than other times that
00:12:13.760
conservatives have pushed back a little bit against the culture. And the reason for that is
00:12:18.340
that conservatives are keeping it up. I think Bud Light is just kind of done. Bud Light could fix it,
00:12:26.080
of course. Bud Light, if the CEO came out and just apologized and said, sorry, we don't support the
00:12:31.300
trans stuff. It's obviously a false anthropology. Sorry to offend you guys. Please buy our product
00:12:36.980
again. We're going to put John Wayne on the can. Forget about Dylan Mulvaney. We'll put John Wayne on
00:12:40.680
the can. I think people would go back and buy it. But Bud Light can't do it. This is the point
00:12:46.600
that I was making with ESG and DEI and the international institutions like GARM that are
00:12:56.780
partnered with the World Economic Forum, that are partnered with all of the woke asset managers
00:13:03.140
that are investing on the basis not just of what is going to increase profits to shareholders and not
00:13:08.980
just what's going to please customers, but what is going to appease the radicals who are writing these
00:13:14.560
ideological prescriptions for businesses? Bud Light is caught between a rock and a hard place
00:13:20.640
because the more they appease the radicals who write the rules for the industry and for their
00:13:27.920
company, the less the customers are going to like it. The more the customers like their product,
00:13:33.300
the less the woke-minded investors are going to like the product. So what are they going to do?
00:13:38.220
They can't apologize. If they could, they would have by now. But they feel that they cannot.
00:13:45.380
The other thing that's really great about this story and people aren't focusing on it too much
00:13:48.500
is how much this has damaged the Dylan Mulvaney brand. Yes, he's still getting partnerships. Yes,
00:13:54.120
he's still getting sponsorships. But I think companies are going to think twice now.
00:13:59.360
If one picture of this dude on one can of Bud Light was able to destroy the most popular beer in America
00:14:09.040
and conservatives are not giving up on it, that is going to make, maybe not makeup companies,
00:14:13.800
maybe not niche companies, but that is going to make normal, big, mainstream companies think twice
00:14:21.400
before giving that guy any attention or any money. And that is a very, very good thing.
00:14:28.460
We need to make this ideology. It's not that we need to make it toxic for advertisers. It is a toxic
00:14:36.560
ideology. We just need to demonstrate. We need to get it through the skulls of the advertising executives
00:14:43.280
to see how toxic the ideology of transgenderism really is. Speaking of the relationship between
00:14:51.280
leftism and business, Elon Musk continues to speak more and more clearly on political issues.
00:15:01.380
He is going after George Soros, who is one of the biggest funders of leftist causes. And he's one of
00:15:07.400
the clearest and most coherent in his radicalism. And because he's such a big hedge fund guy, he's able
00:15:14.560
to fund a lot of those issues. Not just a few bucks to Joe Biden here and there, but funding,
00:15:20.140
for instance, a plan to install radical DAs in major American cities and then not prosecute crime.
00:15:25.900
Really clever, really effective kind of left-wing activism. So because he's so effective and because
00:15:31.300
he's got such deep pockets and because he's so radical, the libs hate it when we call him out.
00:15:36.540
Elon doesn't care. Elon's going after George Soros. And the liberal establishment,
00:15:41.900
the guys on CNBC, they're begging him. They're saying, please, Elon,
00:15:45.440
please stop talking about George Soros. We don't, we don't, we can't allow you to do that.
00:15:50.940
You tweeted this thing about George Soros. Well, I'm looking for it because I want to make sure
00:15:56.240
I quote it properly. But I mean, you know what you wrote, but you basically-
00:15:59.580
I said it reminds me of my videos. It's like, you know, calm down, people. This is not like
00:16:04.600
You said he wants to erode the very fabric of civilization and Soros hates humanity.
00:16:10.060
Like when you do something like that, do you think about-
00:16:13.840
Okay. But why share it? Why share it? Especially because, I mean,
00:16:17.320
why share it when people who buy Teslas may not agree with you? Advertisers on Twitter may not
00:16:23.320
agree with you. Why not just say, hey, I think this, you can tell me, we can talk about it over
00:16:28.840
there. You can tell your friends, but why share it widely?
00:16:31.120
I mean, this is freedom of speech. I'm allowed to say what I want to-
00:16:36.940
You absolutely are. But I'm trying to understand why you do, because you have to know it's got a,
00:16:40.840
there, it puts you in a, in the middle of a, the partisan divide in the country. It makes you
00:16:46.160
a lightning rod for criticism. I mean, do you like that? I, you know, people today saying he's an
00:16:53.320
No, I'm definitely, I'm like, I'm like a pro-Semite, if anything.
00:16:58.320
That's a threat. Notice, it's not an argument. It's not that the liberal establishment typified
00:17:04.180
by that MSN or CNBC guy, they're not saying, well, here's where you were wrong on the facts,
00:17:09.480
Elon, or actually George Soros doesn't fund any left-wing causes, or actually fact check here.
00:17:15.520
No, it's not, it's not an argument. The guy's admitting, yeah, okay, fine. Your points might be true.
00:17:23.320
But why say it? Why are you saying it? Mmm, some investors might not like it if you say that.
00:17:30.580
Oh, Elon, no, look, maybe it's true, but some advertisers might not like that.
00:17:36.460
They, actually, you know what they might do? Now, I would never do this, Elon. Not me. Look,
00:17:41.220
I'm your buddy, Elon. But they might call you an anti-Semite if you keep talking out about the guys
00:17:48.940
who fund all the liberal causes. You might, anti-Sem, what the hell? Where'd you get anti-Semite
00:17:55.240
from? They might call you a racist, Elon. They might call you a bigot. Because in America,
00:18:01.340
the worst thing that you can be called is a racist. Anti-Semitism is one shade of racism.
00:18:10.600
And George Soros is Jewish, so he said, well, that's the way we're going to do it.
00:18:15.900
If George Soros, if the big funder of this particular kind of radicalism were black, he
00:18:21.540
would have said, we wouldn't want to be called an anti-black racist, would you? Or if, or it doesn't
00:18:28.040
even have to necessarily be about race. If the big funder were a homosexual, you wouldn't want to be
00:18:32.880
called a homophobe, would you? If the big funder were a transvestite, you wouldn't want to be called
00:18:38.580
a transphobe. It's just a threat. There's no argument here. He's not saying, Elon, you're wrong
00:18:43.440
on the points. He's saying, shut up or we will ruin your business and take all your money away.
00:18:50.220
And Elon, to his credit, says, okay, do your worst.
00:19:02.120
I'll say what I want to say. And if the consequence of that is losing money, so be it.
00:19:09.980
Great answer. First of all, just tactically, I think this is a great answer even to preserve
00:19:16.560
his wealth because it shows confidence. It shows leadership. It shows a clear vision. It shows this
00:19:22.660
guy's not going to be bullied by some cable news anchor, certainly. So tactically, I think that's
00:19:30.000
very effective just from a business standpoint. But at a deeper level, Elon is totally right.
00:19:36.900
What Elon is saying here is, look, I'm the richest guy in the world. I've got all this
00:19:42.100
power. I now own one of the companies that controls speech in the public square. I'm a
00:19:47.160
powerful guy. And you're all threatening me. And you're saying, if I don't tow the line,
00:19:51.600
then you're going to try to take some of my money away. Well, if I tow the line and I don't wield my
00:19:59.320
influence and I don't get to say the basic things that I want to say, then what's it all for?
00:20:04.700
Oh, I'm the richest guy in the world. But if I don't have the ability to state my own perfectly
00:20:12.060
normal opinion, perfectly accurate opinion, as even the cable news host seems to insinuate when he
00:20:18.440
doesn't contradict him or refute him. If I don't have that right, then what good is all this money?
00:20:25.200
What good is all this power if I can't actually wield it?
00:20:29.060
Now, one great use of your money would be to go get some good ranchers today.

00:23:09.360
Speaking of money, people who don't have money are being encouraged to kill themselves in Canada.
00:23:19.080
New poll out, this is a result of the National Post poll in Canada, shows that 28% of Canadians
00:23:27.700
approve of assisted suicide for homeless people. A fifth of respondents said that medical assistance
00:23:36.760
in dying, which is the real clinical jargony way of saying assisted suicide should be offered as an
00:23:43.580
option to anyone regardless of medical or psychological condition, but then a greater number than that,
00:23:49.880
not quite a third, but getting pretty close, said that homeless people should be permitted to kill
00:23:57.100
themselves. This always happens. I guess the theme of the show today is the slippery slope, which is
00:24:04.480
always right. And you will hear philosophers, and you will hear social scientists, and you'll hear politicians
00:24:09.640
say, oh, please, please stop making those silly slippery slope arguments. Why? I can barely make a slippery slope
00:24:16.200
argument right now because the wind is going so fast in my face. Wind's going through my hair. I'm going down that
00:24:21.180
slide so fast. This always happens. This is what happened in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, when they
00:24:27.000
legalized medical assistance in dying, known as killing troubled people, we were told this is only
00:24:35.040
for a handful of people. It's just for a handful of very, very old people who are going to die within
00:24:40.480
weeks, days, hours, and they're in such terrible pain. And I know we have palliative care, but let's
00:24:46.480
forget that for a second. That's not going to help my argument. These people, they're begging to be
00:24:51.260
released from their pain, please. As a compassionate person, you have to allow them and respect their
00:24:56.340
choice. Okay, this convinced a lot of people who didn't think too broadly about the issue.
00:25:03.520
We'll never open this up to others. And then slowly, the age requirements started being lowered.
00:25:09.780
The medical requirements started being lowered. All of a sudden, people with depression, just depression,
00:25:15.620
not terminal cancer, deeply painful, going to kill you in three days. No, no, just a little bit depressed,
00:25:21.620
you could kill yourself. Then it came for children, children under the age of 12.
00:25:28.740
Then it came for the handicapped, the disabled. Then it came for the mentally ill. Then in the
00:25:38.400
Netherlands, there was a woman who had, at an earlier stage, consented to dying. And then a doctor
00:25:44.120
came to her and said, okay, you're ready to die? Now that, you know, it's been a while, your progression,
00:25:48.700
your condition has progressed. So I think it's time for you to die. And the woman said, not yet.
00:25:55.740
And then the doctor said, nope, now's the time. And he secretly slipped her and, not an abortion,
00:26:02.700
that's another way of dying, a suicide pill in her coffee. She realized what was happening. She said, spit it out,
00:26:10.820
was fighting, was fighting back. Her family ended up holding her down as the rest of the murder continued.
00:26:17.760
In Canada now, 3.3% of Canadians die by assisted suicide. That's up in just one year. That's up by
00:26:27.220
almost 50% from something like 2.4%. You're seeing this now in the United States. You're always falling
00:26:33.260
down the slippery slope. Now we're just going to kill the homeless. Now we're just going to kill the
00:26:38.720
people who are inconvenient. They're a little bit of a burden. Oh, do you really, you've got to go visit
00:26:42.360
granny on Saturday? Can't we just get this over with? That's what happens. That's what happens to
00:26:48.160
a society that doesn't have a principle to hold on to. Something tangible. To bring it back to the
00:26:55.720
marriage example, if marriage is a discreet thing, if marriage is the union of a man and a woman for the
00:27:02.900
sake of the generation and education of children, if marriage is what it has always been, then we have
00:27:08.660
marriage. But if we can just pull away at that bedrock, moral, anthropological principle,
00:27:17.060
then marriage can be whatever the radicals want it to be. If we can pull away at the commandment,
00:27:25.780
thou shalt not commit murder. If we can pull away at the aspect of natural law, which tells us about
00:27:35.900
our obvious right and inclination to preserve ourselves, the radicals can redefine whatever
00:27:44.040
they want. Speaking of homeless people, or people seeking new homes, the numbers are in on Biden's
00:27:51.640
migrant surge. And according to Alejandro Mayorkas and the DHS, there was a record inflow on May 17th
00:28:03.700
during the month. During all of this time, we've got 137,374 migrants admitted. And then on top of
00:28:18.180
that, you had roughly 40,000 new migrants through the border in the days just before May 11th. The
00:28:25.480
April inflow exceeded 135,211 migrants who were admitted in April of 2022. Compare that all to
00:28:35.360
Donald Trump. You see the numbers going up under Biden, especially in the last couple of weeks.
00:28:39.620
But what does that mean? Is it up 5%, 10%, 20%? Joe Biden's April 2023 inflow is 87 times as many
00:28:51.940
migrants as many migrants as many migrants as many migrants as many migrants as were admitted into the
00:28:54.080
country on Trump's watch in April 2020. It's not 20% higher, 50% higher, 100% higher, 200% higher, 300%,
00:29:05.720
400%, 500%. It's 87 times higher. Since January of 2021, when Joe Biden took office, the Biden administration
00:29:16.920
has admitted roughly four and a half million migrants across the southern border. We lose
00:29:23.120
sight of the scale of this stuff. So we think, okay, the libs get elected and things get a little
00:29:28.620
bit worse. The conservatives get elected, things get a little bit better. That totally denies the
00:29:36.180
radical difference in scale. There is a difference in degree to the migration problem that almost seems
00:29:42.520
to be a difference in kind. If you're talking about 87 times the number of people, that's very,
00:29:47.800
very different. Joe Biden gets elected. We don't have a border. Donald Trump gets elected. We overturn
00:29:54.540
Roe v. Wade and save hundreds of thousands of babies' lives per year. Those are very significant
00:29:59.260
differences. In the past, it used to be, okay, one guy's got a red tie, one guy's got a blue tie.
00:30:05.600
Whoever gets elected, nothing really changes all that much. But we're living in a much more polarized
00:30:09.140
time. We're living in a time when people don't know what marriage is, when people don't know what
00:30:13.160
an American is, when people don't know what men and women are, okay? And so just necessarily the
00:30:20.500
swings that are going to occur when one party gets elected or the other party gets elected are going
00:30:26.460
to be much, much greater. Even with the bureaucracy and other power centers in our society not shifting
00:30:33.640
based on those elections, even though it's just the elected government and some of the appointed
00:30:37.080
officials who shift, the less your society agrees on basic stuff, the wider the swings are going to be
00:30:44.540
and the less social order and stability you are going to have. Speaking of lawlessness,
00:30:50.940
the Supreme Court right now is going to determine the fate of the abortion pill in the U.S.
00:30:58.940
Here is what New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has to say about the prospect of regulating a pill that
00:31:05.400
kills babies. If you get a bulk order of Mifepristone, would you be then prescribing it out in defiance of
00:31:16.480
the Supreme Court? To be determined. But when I say everything is on the table, Katie, I mean that.
00:31:24.780
I think when you've got, this is going to cost this action generally, whether it's Mifepristone or whether
00:31:31.000
it's North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, by the way, at six weeks. My wife and I don't think
00:31:36.000
that we knew we were pregnant with any of our four kids at six weeks. So people need to understand
00:31:42.920
that. But this is going to cost people's lives. It's going to cost them health. It's also going to
00:31:48.620
cost people's lives, women in particular, sadly. And so if that's what's at stake,
00:31:54.060
we'll do whatever it takes to save lives. People's lives obviously are at stake when we're
00:32:00.500
talking about a drug that kills babies. People's lives are always at stake when women take drugs
00:32:05.920
that can kill their babies. That's why it's being litigated. So it's not actually at the level of
00:32:10.140
the Supreme Court yet. It's now just being litigated before federal court in Louisiana. It seems like it's
00:32:15.180
going to make it all the way up there. And what does the New Jersey governor say? The New Jersey
00:32:20.020
governor says, okay, let's say that in the future, the Supreme Court makes its decision.
00:32:24.340
Let's see them enforce it. What the New Jersey governor is saying is I will engage in an
00:32:30.040
insurrection. That's what it means. What's an insurrection? Insurrection is a violent uprising
00:32:35.000
against the established political order. And what this guy is talking about is violent because
00:32:40.980
the very act of taking this drug involves killing somebody, killing the type of person who is the most
00:32:48.980
innocent person in society. Little tiny baby. That's what the libs are saying. That's a different
00:32:56.700
kind of insurrection than the one we saw on January 6th. Sorry. January 6th, the worst day in the history
00:33:06.420
of our country. Because on that day, which we're told it's the most violent, horrific, blood-soaked day
00:33:12.300
in history. On that day, some guy from Florida took a selfie sipping a Coors Light in the Capitol
00:33:16.940
rotunda, and another guy waved at a camera while holding Nancy Pelosi's lectern. And the only person
00:33:23.140
who was killed was one of the Trump supporters killed by a trigger-happy cop. And in this case,
00:33:28.320
we're talking about the governor of New Jersey saying that the Supreme Court of the United States
00:33:34.720
can go to hell. They're going to keep killing babies willy-nilly, send in the feds.
00:33:39.920
The insurrection, much, much more intense on the liberal side, as it always is, as we saw during BLM,
00:33:45.860
as we see with leftist violence around the country. That is not conducive to civil order
00:33:54.160
and political flourishing. But we know this, speaking of political lawlessness. What did we
00:33:59.820
get this week? We got the Durham investigation, which shows that not only was there no basis for
00:34:05.240
the government to spy on Donald Trump's presidential campaign, not only was there no basis for the entire
00:34:10.780
liberal establishment, including the media, to go after Trump as a Putin stooge for years and years and
00:34:15.360
try to undermine not only his election, but also his presidential administration. But we found out
00:34:21.160
this week that the CIA director was in on it, the FBI director was in on it, the vice president was in
00:34:25.980
on it, the vice president who is now the president of the United States, Joe Biden, and the president
00:34:30.100
himself, Barack Obama. They were all in on it. So one of the top dog Democrats to push the Russia
00:34:37.240
nonsense was this guy Adam Schiff, this congressman from California. Here I am in California right now in
00:34:42.860
Mussolini's hellscape. Adam Schiff, maybe not even so far down the street. And what is his answer
00:34:49.520
on being shown to be a complete liar on the Russia hoax? Here's what he has to say.
00:34:57.860
This is an investigation that started in a flawed manner. It was conducted in a flawed manner,
00:35:03.240
and its conclusion is a flawed conclusion. It began in a flawed way because this was the result
00:35:12.040
of Donald Trump badgering Bill Barr to investigate the investigators. So it was brought really with
00:35:18.080
no predicate, except this is what Donald Trump was demanding, and this is what Bill Barr wanted to
00:35:23.120
have undertaken. So we have four years of wasted effort. And worse than that, we have four years,
00:35:29.960
I think, of undermining the department in a political prosecution.
00:35:35.500
Adam Schiff, I don't think he's Italian, but he's clearly learned a lesson from those New York
00:35:40.800
Italians on the other side of the country. Deny till you die. That's his answer.
00:35:47.600
Congressman Schiff, what do you make of the fact that this long, years-long investigation into the
00:35:52.240
origins of the Russia investigation showed that it was all fake, and it was all cooked up,
00:35:59.220
and we have on the record the biggest leaders in your party and in the government cooking it all up?
00:36:06.480
I suppose my answer to that would be, la, la, la, la, la, can't hear you. La, la, la, la, la,
00:36:13.660
that's his answer. His answer, oh, the special counsel investigation? Yeah, it was always flawed.
00:36:18.200
It's fake. Don't look here. Nothing to see here. Move along, move along. And this is actually the
00:36:24.040
best shot that Democrats have, I think, of getting past the Durham report. The best shot they have
00:36:31.100
of maintaining their political influence and not seeing the pendulum shift back a little bit
00:36:38.100
is just to say, oh, yeah, it's fake. That Durham report, yeah, no, it's fake. John Durham, he's bad.
00:36:42.840
Don't trust him. It's all, nope. Don't believe your lying eyes. They can't apologize. They actually
00:36:50.560
can't apologize according to their premises in politics. And the reason they can't apologize
00:36:57.720
is because apologies and grace presuppose a shared theology. If we had a shared religious view in the
00:37:06.920
United States, as we had from our founding long before the 1776 founding up through just a few
00:37:13.780
decades ago, if we had that shared religion, a politician could come out and say, hey, I'm sorry,
00:37:18.740
I got this wrong. Please forgive me. I'll try to do better next time. And the politician would
00:37:24.820
have had a shot of surviving. We now live in an age where much of the country views itself as
00:37:30.900
post-Christian, which there's no such thing as post-Christian. That just means not Christian.
00:37:36.860
And so in that kind of culture, there is no grace. There is no mercy. There is no forgiveness.
00:37:43.980
Adam Schiff knows if he admits that he was wrong in any way, he's done. He's toast. It's like
00:37:48.560
Kevin Spacey. It's like any of the Me Too movement people. The ones who in any way acknowledged that
00:37:56.320
they did something wrong, which is, I don't know, every single person in Hollywood. But the ones who
00:38:00.980
admitted that, their careers were over. And the ones who just stuck by their story and they denied,
00:38:07.580
they're the ones who got to survive. I'll give you a little tease for tomorrow because I want to get to
00:38:11.400
the most important story, which is Starbucks India transing everybody. But just a little tease.
00:38:22.240
President Covfefe, who we were told could never possibly win re-election. Donald Trump,
00:38:26.720
he's just going to drive us all off a cliff. His numbers are looking pretty great. I'll just leave
00:38:32.560
it there with that because I want to get to a much more important story than who is the president of
00:38:36.180
the United States. I want to get to transvestites in India. My favorite comment yesterday is from
00:38:43.920
K2BNY, who says, I thought the Libs' favorite talking point was incoherent screaming.
00:38:50.800
It is. You're right. The most articulate spokesman for the Libs in recent years was that lady right
00:38:56.440
after Trump got elected the first time, who was staring at the sky and she was screaming,
00:39:01.060
no, no. So you're right. That is their favorite talking point. Okay, Starbucks, what are you selling me?
00:39:14.060
We've got a dad. He's calling his son Arpit. He's looking kind of irritated.
00:39:20.380
His mama. He's looking over it. Her husband. Just listen. Don't get angry this time, please.
00:39:28.460
And in walks a woman. Wait a second. That woman looks a little weird.
00:39:33.360
That woman kind of looks like that dude that the dad was just calling.
00:39:38.100
And then, wait a second. That woman, she's got kind of broad shoulders.
00:39:43.380
I know it's been years. But you still mean the world to me.
00:40:31.460
And then we had some other body parts subtracted.
00:40:38.900
I'd be curious to see what kind of commercials Starbucks Pakistan is putting out.
00:40:44.740
Do you think Starbucks Pakistan is putting out the pro-trans commercials?
00:40:50.780
But in the West and in more pro-Western countries, even in the subcontinent, in India, you see this pro-trans propaganda.
00:41:02.800
The most jarring part of this commercial to me is this man who now thinks he's a woman saying, hey, dad, I know it's been years.
00:41:17.720
Does it mean this guy hasn't talked to his father for years?
00:41:21.220
I don't care what dress you're wearing or what delusions you're entertaining.
00:41:29.440
It's not a nice thing to just not talk to your father for years.
00:41:32.360
So the father here, you really feel for the guy because he's sitting there.
00:41:37.580
His son is engaging in bizarre deviant and destructive sexual behavior.
00:41:43.980
But he loves his son and he wants to have a relationship with his son.
00:41:49.740
I guess the only option I'm left with right now that this culture is leaving me with is I've got to just lie and go tell the barista to get me three coffees for Arpita.
00:41:59.040
Okay, and now I lied and now my son will accept me again and now we can all sit and talk.
00:42:08.620
It reminds me of that clip from Family Guy where Quagmire's dad is a transvestite and he's sitting in a bar and the bartender comes up and says, excuse me, ma'am, you can't look at pornography on your phone at the bar.
00:42:26.820
And then Quagmire's dad, who is dressed like a woman, he says, no, no, no, you don't understand.
00:42:32.800
And then the bartender says, oh, okay, in that case, do whatever you want.
00:42:36.340
You can just do whatever you want and you'll never be held accountable for anything because you have a delusional perception of yourself.
00:42:47.620
As though, if you can claim this defect of perception, then you can get away with anything.
00:42:59.140
In the eyes of the media, you literally can get away with murder.
00:43:06.620
In the old culture, what we would have done is we would have said, hey, Arpita, no, you're a man.
00:43:17.740
And no, I know you're doing bad things and you've done some bad things in part because of your defect of perception.
00:43:28.420
We say, if you want to be a good person, you want to get along in society at all, you want to be allowed to function even according to the law, you just have to lie.
00:43:37.980
Write Arpita on the cup of coffee and then you're fine.
00:43:42.060
Also, in more trans pop culture news, because even as the people recoil against transgenderism, even as Pew Research shows that 60% of Americans recognize that transgenderism is fake,
00:43:53.560
even as Bud Light continues to lose market cap and sales, even still, companies are peddling transgenderism because the ideologues who hold on to the purse strings, they continue to push it.
00:44:09.520
Now, for a pride ad, some dudes are modeling women's bathing suits for Adidas.
00:44:21.020
I'm not even totally opposed, in theory, to men wearing bathing suits that look somewhat like this, because that's what men did in the 1920s in, like, really old-timey beach bathing suits.
00:44:33.060
But they shouldn't be wearing these kind of thong-like bathing suits.
00:44:35.420
It should be, like, full-body bathing suits, like the burkini almost, but for men.
00:44:42.040
The suits are stylized to be as womanly as possible, and then the dudes who are being picked to model them are fairly masculine.
00:44:53.360
These are intentionally masculine-looking dudes, and it's just to shove it in your face.
00:45:01.920
The purpose of these commercials is not, as the transgenderists would pretend, to convince you that these dudes are actually chicks.
00:45:08.500
The purpose of these commercials is to shove right in your face that these are dudes.
00:45:13.540
They are so obviously dudes, and to force you to lie.
00:45:28.120
Back when Pride Day was a day, we all said, you know, this is going to spread.
00:45:33.620
And then Pride Day became Pride Week, and then Pride Week became Pride Month, and that was the month of June.
00:45:40.900
So then the LGBT LMNOP people, they took October.
