The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 1267 - Democrats Sink To New Lows

00:00:00.000 President Trump was arraigned yesterday at a Miami federal courthouse.

00:00:04.300 He is the first president ever indicted on federal charges. 37 charges, in this case,

00:00:10.820 all related to having kept papers from his time in office. Trump, unsurprisingly,

00:00:17.320 pled not guilty and was defiant in his speech later that night.

00:00:22.120 Today we witness the most evil and heinous abuse of power in the history of our country.

00:00:27.400 A very sad thing to watch. A corrupt sitting president had his top political opponent

00:00:33.880 arrested on fake and fabricated charges of which he and numerous other presidents would be guilty

00:00:40.320 right in the middle of a presidential election in which he is losing very badly.

00:00:49.840 This is called election interference in yet another attempt to rig and steal a presidential election.

00:00:56.200 More importantly, it's a political persecution like something straight out of a fascist or communist nation.

00:01:05.180 This day will go down in infamy and Joe Biden will forever be remembered as not only the most corrupt president

00:01:11.560 in the history of our country, but perhaps even more importantly, the president who together with a band of his closest,

00:01:18.860 I hope so. The whole situation is absurd. A former president who happens to be the chief political rival of the current president indicted for the first time in history by said sitting president,

00:01:46.780 by his justice department, for improperly storing documents, a supposed crime which the sitting president himself was recently caught having committed.

00:01:55.420 Doesn't make any sense. Right. It doesn't have to make sense. It's not about making sense.

00:02:04.060 It's kind of like the leftist sexual politics. The leftist sexual politics goes something like this.

00:02:11.980 Women are oppressed and entitled to special treatment unless it's more convenient for women not to exist at all because men can become women. 0.99

00:02:19.960 Unless it's more convenient for sexuality to be innate and immutable because people are born this way. 0.88

00:02:25.900 Unless, unless, unless whatever new idea arises to let us take more power. That's it.

00:02:33.740 That's the pride ideology in a nutshell. That is leftist politics.

00:02:38.200 Mishandling classified documents is not a big deal. It's just some emails. It's just some boxes next to Joe Biden's Corvette.

00:02:46.340 It's not a big deal at all unless it's convenient for it to be a big deal.

00:02:51.300 In which case, we're going to imprison Joe Biden's chief rival and watch him die in prison.

00:02:57.020 We all want to make sense of it. I know I'm as guilty of this as anyone else.

00:03:02.400 We're just trying to say, what's the logic? If only we could show them that the logic isn't there.

00:03:07.580 But there is no sense to be made of it.

00:03:11.420 The liberals are wielding political power to punish their enemies.

00:03:15.400 And they are making up the political philosophy and the legal doctrines to justify it as they go along.

00:03:22.160 Trump once said that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and he wouldn't lose a single vote.

00:03:26.800 Maybe that's true.

00:03:28.760 What seems more certain these days is that our liberal ruling class could shoot Trump dead on Fifth Avenue.

00:03:35.080 And they would not face a single prosecution from a justice system that has been reduced to little more than a campaign arm for Democrats.

00:03:43.940 I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:03:53.300 Welcome back to the show.

00:03:55.120 We have got the director of gender development at Lurie Children's Hospital on camera,

00:04:00.420 admitting that there is no evidence for the transing the kid procedures.

00:04:03.520 We'll get to that in just one second.

00:04:04.520 First, though, how is the rest of the GOP field handling the arraignment of Trump?

00:04:09.660 Everything with Trump seems kind of big and unprecedented and historic, some more than others.

00:04:15.280 This more than even the others that are more than the others.

00:04:19.900 This is a big deal.

00:04:21.960 A former president indicted on federal charges for the first time in history.

00:04:27.920 Even a bigger deal because that former president is running for office again.

00:04:31.760 Had Trump not been running for office again, this would not be happening.

00:04:36.100 They're only going after him because he is far and away the chief rival to Joe Biden.

00:04:42.120 So they're letting the mask slip a little bit.

00:04:44.580 They're being naked in their political persecution.

00:04:47.080 How's the rest of the field responding?

00:04:48.580 They're all kind of condemning it.

00:04:50.120 They're all relatively quiet, though.

00:04:52.240 Of course, because the rest of the GOP field wants to see Trump go down so that they can get the nomination.

00:04:57.540 Makes perfect sense.

00:04:58.680 One candidate, however, who's really sticking up for Trump.

00:05:02.240 That would be my pal Vivek Ramaswamy.

00:05:04.900 We have sent this letter, and I'm happy to announce, this is my commitment on January 20th, 2025,

00:05:15.120 if I'm elected the next U.S. president, to pardon Donald J. Trump for these offenses in this federal case.

00:05:23.820 And I have challenged, I have demanded that every other candidate in this race either sign this commitment to pardon on January 20th, 2025,

00:05:35.240 or else to explain why they are not.

00:05:38.700 The reason it's going to be difficult for them is the same reason it's difficult for me.

00:05:42.860 The donor class has been calling every Republican candidate and telling us to stay away from this,

00:05:49.000 not to touch it from a 10-foot pole, not to keep your distance away for Trump.

00:05:54.900 That is what the donor class is telling us.

00:05:57.120 That's what they're telling the other candidates.

00:05:59.240 I refuse to abide by being a disciple of the donor class. 0.98

00:06:05.200 Love it. Great stuff.

00:06:06.460 Obviously, the other candidates should promise to pardon Donald Trump.

00:06:11.180 If it comes to that, if Trump is sent to prison, and if these guys win the nomination,

00:06:17.840 and if one of these guys becomes president, yeah, of course they should pardon Trump.

00:06:22.560 Of course.

00:06:24.240 Vivek is right also about the donor class.

00:06:26.260 The donor class right now is pretty cool on Trump.

00:06:28.880 I don't think they ever really liked Trump, and they especially don't like him now.

00:06:31.680 So they're saying, hey, stay out of it.

00:06:33.060 Don't get into it.

00:06:34.660 And there are two motivations for why the donor class and the GOP establishment doesn't want to back Trump here.

00:06:41.240 The first one is they don't like Trump.

00:06:43.880 Simple as that.

00:06:44.600 They don't like him.

00:06:45.500 They're basically happy to see him go down.

00:06:48.120 Keep your distance.

00:06:50.140 There's another reason, which is there's some people in the donor class and the establishment,

00:06:55.420 even the punditariat, who believe that this is a ploy by the Democrats to make Donald Trump the nominee.

00:07:02.540 Now, I think as we look at Trump's poll numbers, this argument seems a little bit weak.

00:07:08.160 Trump is already far and away the favorite to become the nominee.

00:07:11.360 I don't think Democrats need to pull any reverse psychology to convince Republicans to back him.

00:07:17.620 He's way, way up in the polls.

00:07:19.820 Other candidates could win, but right now it's Trump's nomination to lose.

00:07:23.640 But the argument from those pundits and donors and establishment types, who I think are more sincere, is, hey, don't let the Democrats force us into picking a nominee that we don't want to pick.

00:07:36.640 Look, Trump can't win again, and maybe some other candidate can win again.

00:07:40.420 So the Democrats are going to try to make us pick Trump, and we shouldn't give it to them.

00:07:44.060 And they're going to bait us into picking Trump by indicting him and by threatening to throw him in prison over a bunch of nonsense.

00:07:51.180 Don't take the bait.

00:07:54.200 Well, that argument's a little weak, too, because in a war, your enemy gets a say.

00:07:59.900 In a political battle, your opponent actually does get a say, and circumstances do change.

00:08:05.700 And if we let them get away with this, this unprecedented action of throwing a political rival in prison,

00:08:14.160 we will have sat by as they fundamentally change the nature of our country and our political order.

00:08:23.980 A week ago, we were not the kind of country that threw the political opposition in prison.

00:08:29.460 Today we are, and we are because of the Democrats.

00:08:32.780 And so we can either rally around the guy that they're trying to throw in prison,

00:08:36.240 not saying necessarily make him the nominee, but rally around him really, really strong,

00:08:40.360 or we can let it happen.

00:08:44.160 Or we could try to play 25D chess and say, no, well, actually,

00:08:48.760 the way that we can really own the libs is by letting them throw the chief political opponent into prison.

00:08:53.640 Yeah, no, because actually 10 steps down the road, that'll get us a guy that we want to do the thing,

00:08:59.020 and then we'll have such principles, and then hypothetically in the future they won't do the thing.

00:09:03.580 No, there's no rhyme or reason here beyond the Democrats are wielding power effectively.

00:09:11.060 And we need to stop them from doing that so effectively.

00:09:14.660 And that's that.

00:09:15.520 Some Republicans don't want to, though, like the former Republican golden boy, Paul Ryan,

00:09:20.720 who's really fallen out of favor, and he's fallen out of favor rightly so.

00:09:23.660 We'll get to his recent comments in a second.

00:09:25.180 First of all, how's your education looking?

00:09:28.480 If you want to improve it, maybe you've got to check out Grand Canyon University.

00:09:31.580 Right now, go to gcu.edu.

00:09:34.520 Are you ready to take the next step in your education but struggling to fit traditional classes into your busy schedule?

00:09:40.840 Grand Canyon University's online programs are designed to make earning your degree easy and accessible,

00:09:53.600 GCU's online courses give you the flexibility that you need to learn on your own terms.

00:10:00.240 I love GCU.

00:10:01.780 In fact, back when I started giving college speeches,

00:10:04.420 it was one of the first schools that I ever went to, physically went to, and spoke at.

00:10:08.540 And now, two of the students who brought me there to GCU are colleagues of mine.

00:10:13.220 One here at The Daily Wire, one at Young America's Foundation.

00:10:16.100 Grand Canyon University specializes in helping you fit your bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree into your busy day.

00:10:22.360 From scholarships to customized scheduling, your graduation team, led by your own GCU counselor,

00:10:27.240 provides you with the personal support you need to succeed.

00:10:29.620 So why wait?

00:10:30.920 If you're ready to take your education to the next level, you need Grand Canyon University.

00:10:35.100 Find your purpose at Grand Canyon University.

00:10:37.380 Go to gcu.edu.

00:10:39.740 That is gcu.edu.

00:10:41.780 When I was but a wee lad coming up in Republican politics and the conservative movement,

00:10:47.200 Paul Ryan was the man.

00:10:49.660 It's hard to imagine it now, but young conservatives loved Paul Ryan.

00:10:55.140 He was the young gun.

00:10:56.840 He was going to re-energize the party.

00:10:59.600 He was VP90X, who agreed for some reason to take that glossy magazine shoot of him lifting weights in the gym in that silly t-shirt.

00:11:07.380 Whatever.

00:11:08.780 He fell out of favor.

00:11:10.980 He got on the wrong side of Trump.

00:11:13.500 He didn't succeed all that much as the Speaker of the House.

00:11:17.620 He seemed to sideline certain conservative priorities.

00:11:20.580 As the GOP moved away from being the party of big business and Wall Street and moved back toward being more of the party of the people and the American nation and culture and borders and tradition and conserving things beyond a slightly ticking up GDP number,

00:11:39.980 Paul Ryan fell out of favor.

00:11:41.120 And now Paul Ryan is being asked what he believes about the current Republican priorities, namely to stop our kids from being transed in schools, protect women's sports, protect women's rights broadly, these cultural issues.

00:11:54.540 Here's Paul Ryan's answer.

00:11:58.340 Republican lawmakers around the country are pushing legislation when it comes to banning books.

00:12:04.500 It could be trans rights.

00:12:06.400 Call it anti-woke or however you want to label it.

00:12:08.860 Is that a good approach, a good strategy?

00:12:10.320 You're a football fan.

00:12:11.180 Is that the way you should approach it?

00:12:12.400 Yeah, I'm not a culture war guy.

00:12:13.740 I think it's really polarizing.

00:12:15.040 Look, on some of these issues outside, you know, with the anti-woke crowd, but to me, I'm worried about a debt crisis.

00:12:21.680 I'm worried about, you know, the future of our country and China. 0.88

00:12:25.000 There are big policy problems that we need to tackle if we want to have a great 21st century for this country.

00:12:30.680 My work at AEI Notre Dame and my Poverty Foundation is all about poverty and upward mobility.

00:12:35.380 You know, what I worry about are the big policy challenges that are going unresolved or made worse by Joe Biden.

00:12:41.020 So that's why I want to win this election so we can actually fix these big policy problems.

00:12:46.360 Cultural war politics is good primary election politics.

00:12:49.580 It's very divisive, but it's effective politics.

00:12:51.600 It's effective politics.

00:12:52.460 I'll grant you that.

00:12:53.620 But for me, I'm an old Jack Kemp guy.

00:12:55.500 I believe in inclusive, aspirational politics, solve problems.

00:12:59.440 We got huge problems.

00:13:01.620 We've got a debt crisis coming, so you've got to get on top of that.

00:13:04.340 Neither Biden or Trump are good on this issue.

00:13:07.240 We've got real problems, OK?

00:13:09.240 Forget about the liberals chopping your kids' genitals off. 1.00

00:13:12.840 Forget about the liberals' sea to shining sea, including in red states, including in conservative towns,

00:13:18.520 teaching gay porn to your kids in elementary school.

00:13:21.160 That's not a real issue.

00:13:22.080 That's a culture war thing.

00:13:23.460 I'm focused on policy.

00:13:27.280 But we're focused on policy, too.

00:13:29.880 Like education policy, health care policy, family policy.

00:13:34.560 No, no, not that stuff.

00:13:35.700 That's all nonsense, says Paul Ryan.

00:13:37.780 That's not real.

00:13:39.420 No, that's just culture war, BS, a bunch of demagogues trying to win primaries.

00:13:44.940 Yeah, maybe it helps you win a primary, but it's total BS.

00:13:48.120 Stop talking about how your kids are being educated.

00:13:50.520 Stop talking about how men are not women.

00:13:53.100 Stop talking about how women want to have their special rights and their bathrooms and their sports teams. 0.90

00:13:59.080 And stop talking about that.

00:14:00.980 We've got to talk about important stuff, like maybe slightly ticking up the GDP number.

00:14:07.040 We've got to talk about the important issues that stir men's souls, like occupational licensing reform.

00:14:13.480 Stop it, you rubes. 1.00

00:14:16.220 You hicks.

00:14:18.460 You hillbillies.

00:14:19.260 You're focused on whether your kid is going to come home one day and chop his genitals off, pump himself full of poison, sterilize himself, kill off your family line.

00:14:29.860 I mean, I'm trying to talk about important stuff, like how we can import even cheaper electronics from China.

00:14:37.180 Come on, talk about policy.

00:14:40.380 I'm being a little bit unfair to Paul Ryan.

00:14:42.620 Though not too unfair.

00:14:44.220 I'm being a little bit unfair in that Paul Ryan is an honest liberal.

00:14:49.240 I don't mean a progressive liberal, a leftist liberal, a Marxist.

00:14:53.480 I'm saying he's a liberal.

00:14:55.720 Like in the old classical sense of the word, Paul Ryan is interested in improving material conditions for people.

00:15:03.760 Liberalism is a political philosophy, a political order, comes in after the Peace of Westphalia, after the concurrent with the rise of the modern nation state, takes off during the Enlightenment.

00:15:21.400 And it says, hey, on the big important questions, who is God?

00:15:26.900 Who are we?

00:15:28.240 What is our purpose here on earth?

00:15:30.880 What is beauty?

00:15:32.060 What is good?

00:15:32.720 What is true?

00:15:33.760 On those questions, you know, the only questions that actually matter ultimately in our lives.

00:15:37.920 Yeah, we're just, I don't know, we're not going to agree.

00:15:39.920 We cracked the monopoly on truth in Christendom in the West.

00:15:43.320 So we're not going to agree on that.

00:15:44.960 The only thing that the political order can aspire to do is maintain some degree of peace, even if it has to do so in a way that would be called tyrannical.

00:15:54.100 But they can impose peace.

00:15:56.060 And the other thing the political order can do is make people a little bit richer.

00:16:00.480 Maybe a lot richer.

00:16:02.040 That's what liberalism said.

00:16:03.480 Forget about the big questions.

00:16:04.820 Just agree to disagree on everything other than how to make another buck and other than how to basically keep the peace so that we can keep making another buck.

00:16:13.100 And that's what Paul Ryan's saying he wants to do.

00:16:16.840 Paul Ryan won't even answer the question, what is a woman?

00:16:19.200 This was the golden boy of the GOP.

00:16:23.580 And he says, look, maybe I'll side with the anti-woke crowd.

00:16:26.100 He won't say the anti-liberal crowd because he's a liberal.

00:16:29.320 He'll say the anti-woke crowd.

00:16:30.760 I'm a little bit more on the slightly conservative side of liberalism.

00:16:33.840 But I don't get into that stuff.

00:16:35.940 You don't get into what is a woman. 1.00

00:16:37.080 You don't get into what is family.

00:16:39.480 What is a nation.

00:16:40.940 What is now?

00:16:42.860 And he has probably good motivations.

00:16:45.100 He says, I want to get people out of poverty.

00:16:46.400 Well, that's good.

00:16:47.080 But man does not live by bread alone.

00:16:48.900 And a nation certainly does not live by GDP alone.

00:16:51.660 There's more to it than that.

00:16:52.860 To think this was ever the future is a joke.

00:16:58.120 Paul Ryan seems to believe if we just avoid contentious issues,

00:17:01.580 then we can maybe squeak by in elections.

00:17:03.760 That was the Mitt Romney strategy.

00:17:05.000 Just don't mess it up and run on how bad Barack Obama is.

00:17:08.600 It completely failed.

00:17:09.680 And Paul Ryan was the VP candidate.

00:17:11.560 He was the running mate with Mitt Romney.

00:17:13.220 And it just didn't work at all.

00:17:15.840 That's not going to work.

00:17:17.840 Even if it did work, it would be a Pyrrhic victory

00:17:20.020 because we would lose the whole culture.

00:17:21.460 Conservatives have won elections over the last 30 years.

00:17:25.060 We haven't conserved almost anything.

00:17:27.680 We haven't conserved the women's bathroom.

00:17:31.920 Hence why Paul Ryan has fallen out of favor.

00:17:34.140 He's probably a nice guy.

00:17:35.800 He's probably a well-intentioned guy.

00:17:37.740 He's probably virtuous in his personal life.

00:17:39.860 I have no reason to think he isn't.

00:17:41.440 He seems like a very amiable fellow.

00:17:43.520 But the guy just has no idea what time it is.

00:17:46.740 He just does not have a conservative vision

00:17:49.860 that is going to conserve very much.

00:17:54.020 Some other Republicans do.

00:17:56.980 There's a new breed of Republicans coming to town.

00:17:59.780 The younger young guns, the new young guns,

00:18:02.260 guys like J.D. Vance, senator from Ohio,

00:18:05.300 who is not going to take this political,

00:18:08.400 I was going to say, persecution.

00:18:10.760 It was a Freudian slip, but it's true. 0.94

00:18:12.540 Forget prosecution.

00:18:13.300 It's a political persecution of Donald Trump.

00:18:16.320 J.D. Vance says, I'm not going to take that lying down.

00:18:20.100 Hey guys, J.D. Vance here.

00:18:21.580 I'm out on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.

00:18:23.480 And I've heard from a lot of people

00:18:24.900 that they're so frustrated as I am

00:18:27.000 with the fact that Merrick Garland

00:18:28.500 has used the Department of Justice

00:18:30.180 for politics instead of law.

00:18:32.300 And I think it's time we stop just whining

00:18:34.160 about this problem and debating this problem

00:18:36.060 and actually do something about it.

00:18:37.540 So I've announced today that I will be holding

00:18:39.640 all Department of Justice nominees

00:18:41.420 that Merrick Garland will use if confirmed,

00:18:44.760 not to enforce the law impartially,

00:18:46.700 which is his duty,

00:18:47.880 but clearly to harass his political opponents.

00:18:50.380 I think that we have to grind this department to a halt

00:18:52.900 until Merrick Garland promises to do his job

00:18:56.300 and stop going after his political opponents.

00:18:59.100 Donald Trump is just one

00:19:00.660 and the most recent example

00:19:03.100 of the fact that Merrick Garland

00:19:05.000 uses his department for political purposes.

00:19:07.820 We have Catholic fathers harassed

00:19:10.260 for their pro-life activism.

00:19:11.840 We, of course, have violent criminals

00:19:13.340 walking the streets after the 2020 summer of riots.

00:19:16.900 And if you're letting the violent criminals go free

00:19:19.100 and you're harassing Christian parents

00:19:20.640 for their political activism,

00:19:22.120 you're not engaged in justice,

00:19:23.860 you're engaged in politics.

00:19:25.200 Let's be honest about that fact

00:19:26.800 and let's make this department

00:19:28.940 work a little bit more slowly

00:19:30.860 until Merrick Garland changes course

00:19:32.540 and actually does his job the right way.

00:19:35.040 Yup, I want to hear every other GOP senator

00:19:37.580 echo what JD just said.

00:19:40.420 I want to see them all retweet his video.

00:19:43.400 This is exactly the right approach.

00:19:45.360 Grind this thing to a halt.

00:19:49.240 What is the risk?

00:19:50.940 The risk is, well, then the government

00:19:52.460 won't be able to do its job.

00:19:54.140 What is the government doing right now?

00:19:56.240 The government is trancing your kids,

00:19:58.420 hosting tranny strip shows 0.55

00:20:00.380 on the White House lawn.

00:20:01.600 The government is encouraging an invasion

00:20:04.700 at the Mexican border

00:20:06.480 to the tune of three and a half million people per year.

00:20:10.800 The argument against grinding the government to a halt is,

00:20:14.340 well, if you hold up these DOJ people,

00:20:16.780 then they won't be able to prosecute crimes.

00:20:18.540 They're not prosecuting crimes.

00:20:20.080 They're letting many criminals off the hook.

00:20:21.940 Well, if you grind the government to a halt,

00:20:23.640 they won't be able to deal with urgent crises

00:20:25.640 like the invasion at our southern border.

00:20:27.660 Yeah, they're not doing that now.

00:20:28.980 In fact, they're encouraging the invasion to occur

00:20:30.900 to the tune of millions of people a year.

00:20:32.540 Well, they won't be able to deal with issues

00:20:34.420 like the threats from abroad

00:20:36.220 and the potential of World War III.

00:20:37.880 Yeah, what are they doing now?

00:20:39.440 They're doing nothing but misstep after misstep,

00:20:42.640 every step of the way.

00:20:43.880 Joe Biden, in a ceaseless pattern

00:20:47.120 since he entered office,

00:20:48.740 has only exacerbated the threat of war

00:20:51.000 and made it closer around the crisis in Ukraine.

00:20:54.680 So yeah, what's the risk here?

00:20:58.960 Right now, the only thing that the government

00:21:02.020 is doing really, really effectively, really well,

00:21:05.280 is transing our kids and persecuting conservatives. 0.99

00:21:08.420 So yep, grind that to a halt.

00:21:10.720 Love that, JD.

00:21:12.040 Hope we see a lot more Republican senators

00:21:14.000 and office holders echo those calls.

00:21:18.260 People are gonna, they're gonna sound good

00:21:19.520 if they say that sort of stuff.

00:21:20.580 And you can look good doing it,

00:21:21.960 especially if you check out GenuCell.

00:22:36.520 Speaking of the transvestite strip shows

00:22:39.940 at the White House,

00:22:41.720 the White House has admitted they went a little far.

00:22:46.200 Okay, you know this was bad.

00:22:48.040 We played the clip yesterday.

00:22:51.880 It's really, really bad

00:22:53.680 when Corrine Jean-Pierre,

00:22:55.920 the shameless spokesman for the president,

00:22:58.120 comes out and says,

00:23:00.640 yeah, okay, we went a little too far.

00:23:02.440 Having received the statement

00:23:04.300 that the White House believes that was inappropriate,

00:23:06.520 a little bit disrespectful,

00:23:07.700 is there going to be a greater effort in the future

00:23:09.560 to communicate a code of conduct

00:23:11.420 for White House guests?

00:23:13.140 Look, as you mentioned,

00:23:14.980 the statement that we put out,

00:23:16.980 you heard from us earlier today,

00:23:19.100 the behavior was simply unacceptable.

00:23:21.600 We've been very clear about that.

00:23:23.000 It was unfair to the hundreds of attendees

00:23:26.040 who were there to celebrate their families.

00:23:29.600 So, you know,

00:23:31.540 we're going to continue to be clear on that.

00:23:33.900 And that type of behavior is,

00:23:36.860 as I said, unacceptable.

00:23:38.380 It's not appropriate.

00:23:39.180 It's disrespectful.

00:23:40.560 And let's not,

00:23:41.400 it really does not reflect the event that we hosted

00:23:44.580 to celebrate the LGBTQ plus families.

00:23:48.020 Again, hundreds of families who were here

00:23:50.020 to celebrate their community

00:23:52.320 and who were here in attendance.

00:23:53.620 So, look,

00:23:55.760 individuals in the video

00:23:56.840 certainly will not be invited

00:23:58.820 to future events.

00:24:00.580 And this has not occurred before, right?

00:24:03.500 This is not,

00:24:04.300 this was not a normal thing

00:24:06.280 that has happened under this administration.

00:24:08.580 But we've been very clear

00:24:09.860 about how we saw this particular behavior.

00:24:14.080 Yeah, none of this has occurred before.

00:24:15.520 Hoisting the Pride Progress flag

00:24:17.620 in the center,

00:24:18.900 flanked by two American flags,

00:24:20.600 and then hosting a bunch of sexual deviants 1.00

00:24:23.160 for a raucous strip show.

00:24:25.360 Yeah, that's never happened.

00:24:26.280 You're right.

00:24:26.740 That's never,

00:24:27.280 you guys have never done that before.

00:24:28.740 And that's why people are angry

00:24:30.140 that you did that and offended.

00:24:32.600 And that's why you're now backtracking.

00:24:36.220 And I love,

00:24:36.760 she says,

00:24:37.120 this did not represent the event

00:24:39.880 that we hosted.

00:24:41.600 The things that occurred

00:24:43.260 at the event that we hosted,

00:24:44.840 that does not reflect the event

00:24:46.760 that we hosted.

00:24:47.340 Then what does represent,

00:24:52.540 the things that didn't happen,

00:24:53.800 that,

00:24:54.060 the things that didn't happen

00:24:55.120 at the event that we hosted,

00:24:56.080 that's what really reflects

00:24:57.020 the event that we hosted.

00:24:57.880 Not the things that did happen

00:24:58.860 at the event that we hosted.

00:25:00.280 Next to the president,

00:25:01.200 by the way.

00:25:01.660 It's not as though

00:25:02.280 this was just some guy

00:25:03.400 off in the corner somewhere

00:25:04.380 that no one knew who he was.

00:25:05.400 This is a guy

00:25:06.120 who was on camera

00:25:07.400 taking photos with Joe Biden,

00:25:09.180 selfies,

00:25:09.900 talking to him.

00:25:11.100 This was a guy

00:25:11.920 who was,

00:25:13.140 who was quite prominent

00:25:14.960 at the event

00:25:15.640 that the White House hosted.

00:25:16.580 then deciding

00:25:17.680 to take his top off,

00:25:19.080 show off his fake breasts, 0.89

00:25:21.500 flanked by some women

00:25:22.980 who had had their breasts 1.00

00:25:23.920 surgically removed

00:25:25.620 and taking their shirts off

00:25:26.940 as well.

00:25:27.660 That was the event.

00:25:28.400 But they'll admit

00:25:28.900 that it was wrong

00:25:29.600 now that it has faced

00:25:30.720 some pushback.

00:25:32.080 Okay, that's good.

00:25:33.140 Glad they've admitted that.

00:25:35.420 If they're willing

00:25:36.260 to admit what's wrong though,

00:25:38.260 can they be clear

00:25:40.340 about what is right?

00:25:41.960 That's what I'm interested

00:25:43.080 in seeing.

00:25:43.580 They're saying,

00:25:47.140 okay, this was wrong.

00:25:49.380 Transvestites taking 1.00

00:25:50.100 their tops off,

00:25:50.720 that was,

00:25:51.080 why was that wrong?

00:25:53.500 Is it wrong

00:25:54.460 because it's wrong

00:25:55.420 for people

00:25:56.920 to take their tops off

00:25:57.740 in public?

00:25:58.180 Okay, what do they think

00:25:58.980 about the Free the Nipple movement?

00:26:00.340 What do they feel

00:26:00.920 about the relaxation

00:26:01.700 of sexual and social mores

00:26:04.360 and norms and standards?

00:26:05.500 They obviously support

00:26:06.440 that relaxation

00:26:07.140 of those standards

00:26:08.140 and norms.

00:26:08.520 So what is good?

00:26:11.140 Is it good to chop up

00:26:13.420 and mutilate your body?

00:26:14.540 Is it good to inject yourself

00:26:16.020 with poison?

00:26:16.720 Is it good to sterilize yourself?

00:26:18.660 Are these things good?

00:26:20.540 The White House behaves

00:26:21.500 as though they are good.

00:26:22.580 But then when they get

00:26:23.300 too much pushback,

00:26:24.140 they'll kind of back away

00:26:25.080 a little bit and say,

00:26:25.780 no, this is bad.

00:26:26.460 This is unacceptable.

00:26:27.860 So what is it?

00:26:30.160 What is the vision

00:26:32.500 of the good here?

00:26:34.240 We keep trying to make

00:26:35.460 this all make sense.

00:26:36.360 And you see it

00:26:38.460 especially clearly

00:26:39.300 on the sexual politics

00:26:40.780 because one of the premises

00:26:43.360 of the gay rights movement

00:26:44.760 was that people's sexuality

00:26:46.180 is innate and immutable.

00:26:48.260 You're born this way.

00:26:49.180 You can never change

00:26:50.000 your sexual desires. 0.79

00:26:52.060 But then the premise

00:26:53.100 of transgenderism was

00:26:55.440 not only can you change

00:26:56.780 your sexual desires, 0.71

00:26:57.520 you can change your sex. 0.86

00:26:58.340 You can change all of it.

00:26:59.860 So those would seem

00:27:00.580 to be in conflict

00:27:01.600 and yet they're

00:27:02.620 simultaneously established.

00:27:04.340 LGBTQ.

00:27:07.460 I think there's

00:27:08.020 a deeper unity actually

00:27:09.100 beyond that apparent contradiction.

00:27:11.080 But what does the

00:27:11.880 White House say about this?

00:27:13.400 What do the Libs say about this? 1.00

00:27:15.000 They don't say anything.

00:27:16.240 It doesn't matter.

00:27:17.200 The logic of it

00:27:18.300 doesn't matter at all.

00:27:19.120 It's just about wielding power.

00:27:20.620 It's just about

00:27:21.280 hoisting up

00:27:22.540 that big rainbow flag.

00:27:24.680 When powers

00:27:25.980 conquer other powers,

00:27:28.300 they hoist

00:27:29.240 their own flag

00:27:30.460 above the flag

00:27:31.240 of the conquered people.

00:27:32.140 That's what happened

00:27:34.140 at the White House.

00:27:35.740 It was an example

00:27:37.020 of conquest,

00:27:38.320 not the example

00:27:40.020 of logic

00:27:41.060 and enlightenment

00:27:41.840 and a serious

00:27:43.780 civil movement

00:27:44.960 and progress

00:27:45.680 within a country.

00:27:46.220 It was a symbol

00:27:46.880 of conquest.

00:27:49.040 The conquest

00:27:49.820 of our old republic

00:27:50.760 with its old symbol

00:27:51.560 by a new empire

00:27:54.720 with its symbol.

00:27:57.840 They're redefining

00:27:58.540 these things.

00:27:58.940 They're redefining

00:27:59.380 the nation.

00:27:59.780 Speaking of definitions,

00:28:01.240 especially on this

00:28:01.740 weird sex stuff,

00:28:02.880 there was a page

00:28:04.460 of Johns Hopkins

00:28:05.920 University's diversity

00:28:08.060 and inclusion,

00:28:10.340 gender and sexuality

00:28:11.160 resources,

00:28:11.880 LGBTQ glossary

00:28:13.900 that was going around

00:28:14.760 yesterday.

00:28:15.700 This went viral

00:28:16.900 because Johns Hopkins,

00:28:17.960 probably the premier

00:28:18.720 medical college

00:28:19.500 in the country,

00:28:20.520 redefined lesbian. 1.00

00:28:22.000 and they now say

00:28:24.680 the definition

00:28:25.620 of lesbian

00:28:26.280 is a non-man 0.99

00:28:29.960 attracted to non-men.

00:28:33.040 While past definitions

00:28:34.300 refer to lesbian

00:28:35.020 as a woman

00:28:35.500 who's emotionally,

00:28:36.260 romantically,

00:28:36.720 and or sexually

00:28:37.180 attracted to other women,

00:28:38.260 this updated definition

00:28:39.200 includes non-binary people

00:28:40.800 who may also identify

00:28:43.240 with the label.

00:28:44.420 A non-man 1.00

00:28:48.240 attracted to non-men.

00:28:49.300 What's funny is

00:28:49.800 gay man still says 0.99

00:28:51.440 a man who is

00:28:52.080 emotionally,

00:28:52.600 romantically,

00:28:53.100 so that's still

00:28:53.800 defined as a man,

00:28:54.380 but lesbian is a non-man 1.00

00:28:55.440 attracted to non-men.

00:28:56.540 And the conservatives

00:28:57.180 were making fun of this,

00:28:58.820 saying,

00:28:59.120 oh,

00:28:59.360 how crazy,

00:29:00.280 these woke,

00:29:01.360 politically correct

00:29:02.320 maniacs redefining

00:29:03.540 all the words.

00:29:04.080 And obviously,

00:29:04.380 I wrote a book

00:29:04.860 about that topic,

00:29:05.640 so I'm very interested

00:29:06.500 in the way that the libs

00:29:07.740 redefine words.

00:29:08.420 The book is called

00:29:08.860 Speechless,

00:29:09.440 Controlling Words,

00:29:10.060 Controlling Minds.

00:29:10.640 It's available now

00:29:11.160 to be ordered.

00:29:12.220 That's great.

00:29:12.860 Good job, guys.

00:29:14.420 The most striking

00:29:16.740 thing to me,

00:29:17.400 though,

00:29:17.520 about this redefinition

00:29:18.740 is not how crazy

00:29:20.040 and absurd

00:29:20.660 and different it is

00:29:21.520 from the old definition.

00:29:23.700 You know,

00:29:24.120 you redefine

00:29:24.940 illegal alien

00:29:25.720 to be future

00:29:27.580 undocumented American.

00:29:30.460 Well,

00:29:30.580 that,

00:29:30.760 okay,

00:29:30.920 you're redefining

00:29:31.460 that to be

00:29:31.840 the opposite

00:29:32.260 of what it was.

00:29:32.760 In this case,

00:29:33.780 though,

00:29:34.720 the old definition

00:29:36.760 and the new definition

00:29:37.480 are pretty similar.

00:29:38.680 What's the old definition

00:29:39.620 of lesbian?

00:29:40.320 Is a woman

00:29:40.900 sexually attracted

00:29:42.540 to women?

00:29:44.420 Who then act

00:29:45.340 on those sexual desires?

00:29:47.240 And here,

00:29:47.860 it's a non-man 0.97

00:29:48.920 sexually attracted

00:29:50.180 to a non-man.

00:29:52.180 What's the difference

00:29:53.020 between a non-man 0.98

00:29:53.840 and a woman? 0.74

00:29:54.540 The words even sound

00:29:55.560 similar.

00:29:57.480 Woman 0.99

00:29:57.920 etymologically

00:30:00.200 derives from

00:30:01.840 with-men

00:30:02.440 and the with

00:30:04.220 means wife. 0.97

00:30:05.840 So it's a

00:30:06.440 wife,

00:30:07.900 the wife of a man,

00:30:09.260 a kind of a

00:30:09.800 human being

00:30:10.720 who would be

00:30:12.080 a wife.

00:30:13.960 Non-man 0.98

00:30:14.720 takes that away.

00:30:16.160 This is really

00:30:16.900 subtle stuff,

00:30:18.060 but the libs

00:30:19.340 take over the culture

00:30:20.500 and establish

00:30:21.120 their political order

00:30:21.920 in no small part

00:30:22.580 through the manipulation

00:30:23.680 of language.

00:30:24.940 The only difference

00:30:26.040 between a woman 0.95

00:30:27.580 and a non-man

00:30:28.500 is that woman 0.97

00:30:29.220 implies

00:30:30.600 that

00:30:31.820 women are meant 1.00

00:30:34.340 to pair

00:30:35.080 with men,

00:30:35.860 that there is

00:30:36.340 a telos

00:30:37.740 to being a woman,

00:30:39.060 just by virtue

00:30:39.680 of being a woman.

00:30:40.860 Not your own purpose

00:30:42.280 of I want to be

00:30:43.020 a doctor

00:30:43.640 or a lawyer

00:30:44.180 or I want to go

00:30:45.420 live in this city,

00:30:46.160 but a purpose

00:30:47.440 intrinsic to being

00:30:48.520 a woman 0.57

00:30:48.920 is to pair

00:30:50.460 with a man.

00:30:52.620 Same with a man 0.92

00:30:53.460 for a woman.

00:30:56.120 And by taking out

00:30:57.480 the wo part of it,

00:30:59.600 you end up with

00:31:01.180 what is a woman? 1.00

00:31:02.180 Well,

00:31:02.680 what is the purpose

00:31:03.740 of a woman?

00:31:04.340 Whatever the hell

00:31:04.840 she wants.

00:31:05.800 There is no purpose

00:31:06.780 to anything.

00:31:09.680 A lesbian

00:31:10.680 is a non-man 0.99

00:31:11.760 attracted to non-men.

00:31:13.860 And the only

00:31:14.840 kind of human

00:31:15.580 that is a non-man

00:31:17.460 is a woman.

00:31:19.860 But what they do

00:31:20.780 is they deprive

00:31:22.960 women of that 0.97

00:31:23.860 sense of purpose,

00:31:24.860 of the end

00:31:25.420 of being a woman.

00:31:26.400 You know,

00:31:26.620 that the purpose

00:31:27.200 of the Leftist Tears Tumblr

00:31:28.140 is to give me

00:31:28.500 leftist tears.

00:31:29.280 The purpose

00:31:29.780 of the microphone

00:31:30.340 is to transmit

00:31:31.040 my sultry,

00:31:32.160 sexy,

00:31:33.260 mellifluous voice

00:31:34.140 to you.

00:31:34.920 And the purpose

00:31:36.180 of my sexuality

00:31:37.640 is to pair

00:31:38.340 with a woman

00:31:38.780 and to be married

00:31:40.620 and to have children.

00:31:42.040 The purpose

00:31:42.400 of a woman's sexuality

00:31:43.160 is to pair

00:31:43.940 with a man.

00:31:44.940 So what's even

00:31:46.140 especially interesting

00:31:47.380 about this redefinition

00:31:48.360 is in a way

00:31:49.420 it's more precise

00:31:50.400 than the old one.

00:31:52.920 Because if a lesbian 1.00

00:31:53.900 is a woman,

00:31:55.280 well, a woman 0.94

00:31:55.780 is supposed to be

00:31:56.460 a wife to a man.

00:31:58.620 But a lesbian 1.00

00:31:59.500 is expressly

00:32:00.620 not a wife 0.98

00:32:01.160 to a man.

00:32:02.440 So it's a natural

00:32:05.780 outgrowth

00:32:06.500 of sexual ideologies

00:32:07.880 that say

00:32:08.860 that the complementarity

00:32:10.460 of human beings

00:32:11.260 is not real

00:32:12.380 or meaningful.

00:32:14.320 This is not just

00:32:15.620 a weird eccentricity

00:32:17.300 of the woke people

00:32:18.120 changing language.

00:32:20.080 The non-man definition

00:32:21.040 is a logical conclusion.

00:32:24.680 It's a natural consequence

00:32:26.200 of enshrining

00:32:27.920 sexual ideologies

00:32:29.000 that are absurd.

00:32:31.200 It's a natural

00:32:32.060 consequence

00:32:32.680 of saying

00:32:34.140 that we don't know

00:32:36.900 anything

00:32:37.980 about what's

00:32:38.820 true and good

00:32:40.180 and beautiful

00:32:40.540 and natural

00:32:40.940 end of human life.

00:32:41.760 It's a natural consequence

00:32:42.980 of liberalism,

00:32:43.820 frankly.

00:32:45.020 But I don't know

00:32:45.820 how many people

00:32:46.340 are ready to hear that.

00:32:47.720 I don't know

00:32:48.120 how many people.

00:32:48.960 That's, you know,

00:32:49.480 listen,

00:32:49.780 that's the real

00:32:50.480 deep cut here, guys,

00:32:53.180 on what's going on

00:32:53.920 underneath politics.

00:32:54.880 And it's important

00:32:55.600 to pay attention

00:32:56.520 to this stuff

00:32:57.060 because a lot

00:32:58.880 of conservatives

00:32:59.360 are just confounded.

00:33:00.520 They say,

00:33:00.940 how on earth

00:33:01.580 is it that

00:33:02.520 we never seem

00:33:03.580 to get any

00:33:03.940 political victories?

00:33:04.660 How on earth

00:33:05.160 did we get to this spot

00:33:05.980 where we're transing

00:33:06.600 the kids?

00:33:06.940 This is how.

00:33:08.340 We didn't get to this spot

00:33:09.460 of transing the kids 1.00

00:33:10.900 because Joe Biden

00:33:12.140 held an event

00:33:12.720 at the White House

00:33:13.400 last week.

00:33:14.040 We didn't get to this spot

00:33:14.900 transing the kids 0.77

00:33:15.980 because Barack Obama

00:33:17.060 won an election

00:33:17.740 some years ago.

00:33:18.980 We got to this spot

00:33:19.940 over decades

00:33:21.060 of very subtle,

00:33:22.920 corrosive,

00:33:24.460 clever changes

00:33:25.400 to our political order

00:33:26.180 and even to our perception

00:33:27.100 religion through the way

00:33:28.180 that we use language

00:33:29.120 that has allowed us

00:33:30.760 to accept so many

00:33:31.740 absurd ideas

00:33:32.680 on what human beings are,

00:33:35.720 on what marriage is,

00:33:36.560 on what politics is,

00:33:37.400 that we get to the spot

00:33:38.180 where even otherwise

00:33:39.680 reasonable people

00:33:40.420 could say,

00:33:41.220 yeah,

00:33:41.480 a man can really be

00:33:42.480 a woman.

00:33:44.080 And if you say

00:33:44.640 that a man is a woman,

00:33:45.400 you can be kicked off

00:33:46.120 of the largest platform

00:33:47.160 for sharing videos

00:33:48.760 on the internet

00:33:49.420 in a republic

00:33:50.620 where speech

00:33:51.720 is power

00:33:52.460 or we're supposed

00:33:53.400 to govern ourselves

00:33:54.260 by persuading

00:33:56.140 our fellow citizens.

00:33:57.860 Speaking of women's issues,

00:34:00.200 there's a woman,

00:34:02.280 I'll tell you the headline,

00:34:03.420 this is the headline

00:34:04.040 you're hearing,

00:34:04.720 woman jailed

00:34:06.720 for trying

00:34:08.400 to have an abortion.

00:34:10.880 This is the

00:34:11.640 Handmaid's Tale

00:34:12.920 dystopia

00:34:14.600 that we were all

00:34:15.240 warned about.

00:34:15.980 If Roe v. Wade

00:34:16.740 is overturned,

00:34:17.660 women are going to be jailed 1.00

00:34:18.620 for even trying

00:34:19.200 to take pills

00:34:21.260 that will result

00:34:23.160 in an abortion.

00:34:24.260 This is going to have

00:34:25.140 the morality police

00:34:26.000 going door to door.

00:34:27.180 And there's a little

00:34:27.720 kernel of truth here.

00:34:29.280 A woman has been jailed 0.96

00:34:30.860 as a consequence

00:34:33.960 of trying to procure

00:34:35.340 an abortion.

00:34:35.980 But there's a lot more

00:34:36.820 to the story

00:34:37.360 and the details

00:34:38.660 that the establishment

00:34:39.420 media would like

00:34:40.140 to leave out

00:34:40.780 tell you

00:34:42.100 the ghastly truth,

00:34:44.220 which we'll get to

00:34:44.600 in one second.

00:34:45.220 First though,

00:34:45.780 when you want to talk

00:34:46.340 to your friends,

00:34:46.720 how do you do it?

00:34:47.980 I hope you do it

00:34:48.640 using Pure Talk.

00:34:52.280 I am rather discerning

00:34:54.260 if I do say so myself

00:34:56.000 about the partners

00:34:56.640 that I choose.

00:34:57.760 And a company

00:34:58.220 that I am proud

00:34:58.740 to stand behind

00:34:59.520 and that is proud

00:35:00.640 to stand behind us

00:35:01.780 and our country

00:35:02.280 is Pure Talk.

00:35:03.300 Veteran owned 0.92

00:36:35.760 to see it.

00:36:36.240 Go to

00:36:36.420 dailywire.com

00:36:37.060 slash Cold War

00:36:38.140 to start watching.

00:36:41.540 A woman was jailed.

00:36:42.840 That's true.

00:36:44.340 She was jailed

00:36:45.500 for lying

00:36:46.940 to get abortion

00:36:48.840 by male pills

00:36:49.980 to kill her baby, 0.93

00:36:52.700 and this wasn't a woman 1.00

00:36:54.100 who wanted to get

00:36:55.700 Plan B,

00:36:56.740 as some of these drugs

00:36:57.700 are called.

00:36:58.340 This wasn't a woman 1.00

00:36:59.260 who was five

00:37:01.420 or even ten weeks pregnant

00:37:03.180 who lied

00:37:05.060 to get these drugs.

00:37:06.560 This is a woman

00:37:07.460 who was between

00:37:08.000 30 and 33 weeks

00:37:09.820 pregnant.

00:37:11.900 This is a woman

00:37:12.860 whose baby

00:37:13.620 was well past

00:37:15.020 the stage

00:37:15.620 at which he could

00:37:16.560 have lived

00:37:17.000 outside of the womb.

00:37:18.840 And rather than

00:37:19.760 waiting a few weeks

00:37:21.300 longer to give birth

00:37:22.360 naturally,

00:37:23.180 or even inducing labor

00:37:24.760 so that the baby

00:37:25.440 could be put up

00:37:25.900 for adoption,

00:37:26.700 she chose to lie

00:37:27.620 to get poison

00:37:28.420 to kill that baby. 0.65

00:37:30.740 As one of the

00:37:32.720 British children's

00:37:33.720 and pregnancy

00:37:34.300 charities,

00:37:34.960 Tommy,

00:37:35.200 says of children

00:37:35.960 born at 33 weeks,

00:37:37.460 if your baby

00:37:37.940 was born this week,

00:37:38.640 they would be

00:37:38.960 classed as moderate

00:37:40.020 to late preterm.

00:37:42.680 It's unlikely

00:37:43.280 that they will have

00:37:43.840 any severe problems

00:37:44.620 associated with

00:37:45.300 being born prematurely.

00:37:48.740 The baby was a fully,

00:37:53.280 almost fully developed baby,

00:37:55.200 and I mentioned

00:37:56.040 it's a British 0.54

00:37:56.480 children's charity

00:37:57.180 because this was not

00:37:57.920 something that happened

00:37:58.600 in America.

00:37:59.380 This happened in the UK,

00:38:00.720 and a lot of

00:38:02.100 American liberals

00:38:02.740 don't understand

00:38:03.500 that virtually

00:38:05.880 every other country

00:38:06.720 on earth

00:38:07.200 has much more

00:38:08.380 stringent abortion laws

00:38:09.560 than we do.

00:38:10.240 The United States

00:38:11.160 for the past 50 years

00:38:12.540 has been the outlier

00:38:13.960 on abortion.

00:38:15.460 It's us,

00:38:16.540 China,

00:38:17.360 Canada,

00:38:17.840 which is now

00:38:18.280 one of the most

00:38:18.740 evil regimes on earth,

00:38:20.040 and North Korea.

00:38:22.440 We're the outliers

00:38:23.620 on abortion.

00:38:24.480 Even super liberal France

00:38:25.840 much stricter on abortion

00:38:26.920 than the US has been.

00:38:28.460 The United Kingdom

00:38:29.240 much stricter on abortion.

00:38:31.280 I know this is

00:38:31.820 a dicey political issue.

00:38:33.240 Donald Trump

00:38:33.660 stepped into it

00:38:34.380 in 2016

00:38:34.960 when he was asked

00:38:35.820 his view on abortion.

00:38:36.920 Trump had been

00:38:37.400 pro-abortion

00:38:38.200 for much of his life.

00:38:39.300 Then he became pro-life,

00:38:40.240 and he was asked,

00:38:41.280 should we punish women 1.00

00:38:42.180 who get abortions? 1.00

00:38:42.920 And he said,

00:38:43.260 yeah, I guess you have to.

00:38:44.300 And this raised

00:38:44.920 a lot of gasps

00:38:45.620 from people in the

00:38:46.220 pro-life movement

00:38:46.720 because the pro-life movement

00:38:47.740 has said,

00:38:49.060 look,

00:38:49.460 we're not going to punish

00:38:50.600 women who get the abortions. 1.00

00:38:51.760 We're going to punish

00:38:52.180 the abortionists.

00:38:53.080 That's how we're going to

00:38:54.020 stop the flow of abortion.

00:38:56.640 And I think that's

00:38:57.960 probably a prudent strategy.

00:38:59.460 I'm not even going to get

00:38:59.960 into the justice of it.

00:39:00.780 I just think

00:39:01.100 as a prudential matter

00:39:02.420 for stopping abortion 0.87

00:39:04.000 and for persuading the public,

00:39:05.480 that's probably

00:39:06.100 the right thing to do.

00:39:07.440 And even taking into account

00:39:08.660 the anxiety

00:39:10.320 that women are going through

00:39:11.940 who are preyed upon

00:39:13.620 to get these abortions 1.00

00:39:15.160 by their boyfriends,

00:39:16.220 often by these doctors,

00:39:17.440 by the abortion industry.

00:39:18.720 I think,

00:39:19.460 all in all,

00:39:19.960 that's probably

00:39:20.560 a pretty good strategy.

00:39:22.200 But the issue

00:39:22.700 for this story

00:39:24.240 is that the woman

00:39:25.280 in this case

00:39:26.240 is the abortionist.

00:39:28.300 And as drugs

00:39:29.840 become available

00:39:31.960 to kill babies

00:39:33.360 in the womb

00:39:33.860 at later and later stages,

00:39:35.160 it used to be

00:39:35.600 that chemical abortions 1.00

00:39:37.220 would only take place

00:39:37.980 very, very early on

00:39:38.880 and surgical abortions 1.00

00:39:39.740 would take place later on.

00:39:40.600 Well, here we're talking

00:39:41.060 about a 33-week-old baby.

00:39:43.300 So as that becomes the case,

00:39:44.860 our law is going

00:39:45.540 to have to reflect that.

00:39:47.040 And so,

00:39:47.680 yeah,

00:39:48.120 go after the drug manufacturers

00:39:49.560 first,

00:39:50.120 make these drugs illegal

00:39:51.280 if possible,

00:39:52.780 punish the distributors

00:39:55.220 who mail these things out.

00:39:57.420 But ultimately,

00:39:58.520 if a woman 0.96

00:39:59.420 is intentionally lying,

00:40:01.220 committing a medical fraud

00:40:02.460 to get a poison

00:40:03.660 to kill a baby 0.74

00:40:04.860 who is obviously viable,

00:40:07.540 a 33-week-old baby,

00:40:09.400 obviously,

00:40:10.780 there need to be

00:40:12.000 legal consequences for that.

00:40:13.540 And it's not just

00:40:14.140 the crazy right-wingers

00:40:15.220 in America

00:40:15.740 saying it's the libs

00:40:16.640 in the UK.

00:40:17.380 It's pretty much

00:40:18.460 everybody on Earth

00:40:19.200 except the most,

00:40:20.540 the absolute most

00:40:22.120 evil regimes

00:40:22.980 on planet Earth.

00:40:24.520 China,

00:40:25.920 North Korea,

00:40:27.800 Canada,

00:40:28.520 as we've seen

00:40:29.000 in recent years.

00:40:29.960 And do we have

00:40:31.440 to put our own country?

00:40:32.700 Do we have to put

00:40:33.440 our own country

00:40:34.080 in that mix?

00:40:34.920 I don't want to.

00:40:36.960 But we are included

00:40:38.260 in that

00:40:38.680 when we look at

00:40:39.540 the issue of abortion,

00:40:40.780 which is a pretty

00:40:41.760 weighty moral issue.

00:40:43.240 So let's not,

00:40:44.300 let's try to get

00:40:44.900 out of that group.

00:40:45.480 Let's,

00:40:45.820 as a general rule,

00:40:48.360 it's wise

00:40:49.580 not to be lumped in

00:40:50.640 with communists

00:40:53.020 and Canada.

00:40:55.020 I don't,

00:40:55.500 I don't even know

00:40:56.000 in which order anymore.

00:40:57.940 Speaking of child abuse,

00:40:59.100 the director

00:40:59.520 of the gender

00:41:01.080 development program

00:41:01.780 at Lurie Children's Hospital

00:41:03.020 has just said

00:41:04.600 the quiet part out loud.

00:41:05.900 She's just admitted

00:41:06.660 something

00:41:07.140 that conservatives

00:41:09.280 have been warning about

00:41:10.160 for many years now

00:41:11.400 and the libs

00:41:11.860 have gaslit us

00:41:12.620 and told us

00:41:12.980 it's not true.

00:41:13.860 She's admitted

00:41:14.500 that there is

00:41:16.080 no evidence

00:41:16.800 for the transgender

00:41:17.720 butchery

00:41:18.360 that our big

00:41:19.820 medical industry

00:41:20.900 is pushing.

00:41:22.100 You work with

00:41:22.980 trans kids and teens

00:41:24.140 and I would love

00:41:24.980 for you to share

00:41:25.680 with people

00:41:26.320 like a little window

00:41:27.820 into what the process

00:41:28.960 is like when a family

00:41:29.960 comes to you.

00:41:31.500 You know,

00:41:32.080 when kids realize

00:41:33.080 they're trans,

00:41:33.780 like what are they

00:41:34.260 looking for

00:41:35.100 when they meet with you?

00:41:36.580 Is this a risky process

00:41:37.880 for a young person?

00:41:40.100 Yeah,

00:41:40.460 I mean,

00:41:41.260 I mean,

00:41:42.520 the answer to that

00:41:43.680 is largely

00:41:44.320 no and yes.

00:41:46.380 So there are things

00:41:47.740 that we do not know

00:41:48.760 about the process

00:41:50.240 but these are

00:41:51.400 medical interventions

00:41:52.660 that have been used

00:41:53.880 for a long time now.

00:41:55.560 They've been done

00:41:56.120 quite safely.

00:41:57.520 I mean,

00:41:57.920 there is not

00:41:59.600 a full range

00:42:01.020 of evidence

00:42:01.760 to support

00:42:02.580 the treatments

00:42:03.100 that we're using

00:42:04.220 but there is a lot

00:42:05.740 of anecdotal evidence

00:42:06.660 to support it.

00:42:07.960 You'll have to forgive me.

00:42:08.940 I misgendered

00:42:09.800 the director

00:42:11.160 of this children's hospital.

00:42:12.820 I believe the woman

00:42:14.160 was the director.

00:42:15.700 No,

00:42:15.980 it's this guy

00:42:16.740 who's speaking

00:42:18.200 very bluntly

00:42:20.260 as clearly

00:42:22.420 as anyone

00:42:23.540 on this issue

00:42:24.120 has ever spoken.

00:42:25.220 He tries to

00:42:26.460 conceal a little bit

00:42:27.940 but he says,

00:42:28.260 look,

00:42:28.560 okay,

00:42:29.300 so when it comes

00:42:30.240 to the children's

00:42:31.600 transgender procedures,

00:42:33.680 there's a lot

00:42:34.640 of great stuff

00:42:35.140 about them.

00:42:36.460 There is one thing

00:42:37.940 we're missing.

00:42:38.640 There's not like

00:42:39.280 a whole lot of,

00:42:40.400 what's the word for it?

00:42:42.600 Evidence

00:42:43.080 that any of this

00:42:45.000 is real

00:42:45.480 or works

00:42:46.040 or is good.

00:42:46.940 There's not like

00:42:47.440 a lot,

00:42:47.820 we don't have

00:42:48.600 like facts,

00:42:51.420 you know,

00:42:52.080 but we got

00:42:53.720 a lot of feels.

00:42:54.720 We got a lot

00:42:55.260 of feels

00:42:55.800 and I,

00:42:57.100 and I'm,

00:42:57.920 like I got a good

00:42:58.540 gut instinct

00:42:59.080 about it,

00:42:59.680 you know,

00:43:00.880 and anecdotally,

00:43:02.560 I think it's

00:43:03.700 totally cool.

00:43:05.060 So,

00:43:05.540 yeah,

00:43:05.800 give me your kid

00:43:06.420 and let's chop him up. 0.97

00:43:08.420 Now,

00:43:08.680 if you,

00:43:08.960 yeah,

00:43:09.380 if you,

00:43:09.720 okay,

00:43:10.020 if you want

00:43:10.540 evidence

00:43:12.100 or like science

00:43:13.640 or like reality,

00:43:15.440 then,

00:43:15.840 yeah,

00:43:16.140 I guess

00:43:16.500 these treatments

00:43:17.420 are not for you.

00:43:18.680 But if you want

00:43:19.900 a,

00:43:20.640 a bizarre

00:43:22.540 baseless fad,

00:43:24.800 head on over

00:43:25.760 and trans your kids.

00:43:28.340 Yeah,

00:43:29.200 that's true.

00:43:31.240 I'm being a little

00:43:32.060 unfair to him.

00:43:32.900 Not,

00:43:33.120 not too unfair,

00:43:33.640 kind of like with Paul Ryan.

00:43:34.480 I'm not being too unfair.

00:43:35.640 That,

00:43:35.820 that is his view.

00:43:37.300 But,

00:43:37.540 but the point

00:43:38.440 he's expressing is

00:43:39.260 that,

00:43:40.160 yeah,

00:43:40.260 these are experimental

00:43:40.960 treatments.

00:43:42.260 And they,

00:43:42.880 they are experimental

00:43:43.720 treatments.

00:43:44.940 And he's fine

00:43:45.860 with that.

00:43:46.500 Because to the liberals,

00:43:47.780 all of life

00:43:48.380 is experimental.

00:43:50.720 And I mean,

00:43:51.440 even the liberals,

00:43:52.720 kind of the old school

00:43:53.640 liberals too.

00:43:55.960 In antiquity

00:43:56.900 and in the middle ages,

00:43:58.200 we,

00:43:59.840 thought of knowledge

00:44:00.840 as being gained

00:44:01.660 through experiment

00:44:02.480 at times,

00:44:03.060 yes,

00:44:03.220 but also through deduction.

00:44:04.340 There were eternal principles

00:44:05.380 that we could know

00:44:06.320 something about using

00:44:07.120 our faculties of reason

00:44:08.040 and we could use

00:44:09.160 to order our lives.

00:44:11.280 And in modernity,

00:44:12.980 we got rid of that.

00:44:14.100 We kind of made fun

00:44:14.800 of that idea.

00:44:15.520 The,

00:44:15.680 the,

00:44:16.000 the ideas of the old

00:44:17.100 medieval school men.

00:44:18.920 We mocked them.

00:44:19.740 We said,

00:44:20.040 oh yes,

00:44:20.300 they're just debating

00:44:20.940 how many angels

00:44:21.500 dance on the head

00:44:22.240 of a pin.

00:44:23.220 These guys,

00:44:23.900 you can't know anything

00:44:24.960 using your reason

00:44:26.140 deducing,

00:44:27.500 certainly not

00:44:27.900 metaphysical reality.

00:44:28.900 No,

00:44:29.440 the only way

00:44:29.860 to know anything

00:44:30.420 is through experiment

00:44:32.080 in the physical world,

00:44:34.360 through empiricism,

00:44:36.780 through just testing

00:44:37.740 stuff out.

00:44:38.540 And,

00:44:38.900 you know,

00:44:39.320 if we're gonna

00:44:39.960 sterilize some kids

00:44:41.520 while we try to get

00:44:42.340 the hormones just right

00:44:43.540 and figure out

00:44:44.140 how to make a man

00:44:44.800 into a woman,

00:44:45.540 well,

00:44:45.740 hey,

00:44:46.000 you know,

00:44:46.300 that's just how it goes.

00:44:47.340 You gotta,

00:44:47.620 you gotta break some eggs

00:44:49.240 if you wanna make an omelet.

00:44:50.340 the modern people,

00:44:55.720 the liberals

00:44:56.280 and the Marxists

00:44:57.780 and other modern people

00:44:59.260 have believed

00:45:00.820 that politics will,

00:45:04.120 requires a lot

00:45:05.460 of experimentation.

00:45:07.280 And forget about the past.

00:45:08.700 The past was bad.

00:45:09.580 We're just gonna experiment

00:45:10.440 to the future

00:45:10.940 and we'll get it right.

00:45:11.580 Maybe we gotta liquidate

00:45:12.280 some Kulaks or whatever, 1.00

00:45:13.280 but it's okay.

00:45:14.240 We're gonna,

00:45:14.640 we're gonna figure it out.

00:45:16.300 And yeah,

00:45:16.980 why not?

00:45:18.160 Why wouldn't you

00:45:19.420 sacrifice your child

00:45:22.080 on the altar

00:45:22.920 of empiricism

00:45:23.940 and medical experimentation?

00:45:25.480 That's the only way

00:45:26.020 we're gonna have progress.

00:45:27.100 That's the only way

00:45:27.700 we're gonna know anything at all.

00:45:30.520 Hence,

00:45:30.980 the increasing incoherence

00:45:33.400 for these ideologies,

00:45:35.380 which today

00:45:36.960 are not even really debated.

00:45:38.280 They're merely used

00:45:38.940 as a cudgel

00:45:39.440 to beat you into submission.

00:45:41.440 Okay,

00:45:41.620 it's Woke Wednesday, baby.

00:45:42.640 We got some woke TikToks

00:45:43.900 coming up.
