31st 2025. TD ready for you. Super Tuesday has come and gone. Many of you voted. I voted. And if you
00:00:35.400
are in a normal state like I am here in Tennessee, when you went to vote, you showed your ID to prove
00:00:41.940
that you were in fact eligible to vote. If you're a normal voter in a normal state, basic election
00:00:49.080
integrity measures like that, like signing your name, like verifying your address, like showing
00:00:55.340
your ID, make you feel better about the election because they help to make sure that your vote
00:01:01.240
actually counts. Which is why Joe Biden's Attorney General Merrick Garland is dead set on getting rid
00:01:09.200
of them. The right to vote is still under attack. And that is why the Justice Department is fighting
00:01:17.140
back. That is why one of the first things I did when I came into office was to double the size of the
00:01:22.880
voting section of the Civil Rights Division. That is why we are challenging efforts by states and
00:01:29.520
jurisdictions to implement discriminatory, burdensome, and unnecessary restrictions on access to the
00:01:36.360
ballot, including those related to mail-in voting, the use of drop boxes, and voter ID requirements.
00:01:43.780
That is why we are working to block the adoption of discriminatory redistricting plans
00:01:50.420
that dilute the vote of black voters and other voters of color.
00:01:56.980
What dilutes the votes of everyone is when ineligible people go in to vote and cancel out
00:02:03.640
your vote, the vote of actual eligible voters. But of course, Merrick Garland sees things a little
00:02:09.180
bit differently. Or even if he doesn't see things differently, he's saying things quite differently.
00:02:12.640
And why is that? Why is the Biden administration declaring war on election integrity now?
00:02:18.980
They're doing it because this is plan C. Plan A for 2024 was to be more popular, to be more popular
00:02:29.480
than the Republicans. And every indication suggests that plan A failed. So plan B was to get Trump kicked
00:02:39.100
off the ballot. Trump can't get elected if no one can vote for him, right? Well, unfortunately for Joe
00:02:45.120
Biden and Merrick Garland and the Democrats, plan B failed too. The Supreme Court unanimously shot that
00:02:51.240
one down last week. So that leaves Democrats with no other option than plan C. Cheat. I'm Michael
00:03:19.280
Welcome back to the show. The first over-the-counter contraception pills are headed to stores
00:03:27.080
and the libs are so excited about this. I'm not so excited about that. I think reasonable people
00:03:33.220
are not so excited. We'll get to that in just a moment though. First though, speaking of things
00:03:37.260
that you ought to pick up in stores, you got to get your Smells and Bells candle at the Daily Wire
00:03:42.320
shop. Dailywire.com slash shop. Get yours before they're gone. We have sold so many candles. It is
00:03:47.400
now the best-selling candle in Daily Wire history. It's the best-selling one. I don't want to
00:03:52.920
use my torch here to just explode my studio. There you go. Look at that nice wood wick.
00:03:58.800
Smells like a 12th century monastery. Absolutely love it. A best-selling candle ever. I love that
00:04:03.380
the Lenten special candle is the best-selling candle ever in the Daily Wire history by a long
00:04:08.600
shot. So anyway, get yours today. Big night for President Trump. He won basically every single
00:04:15.180
state. There was one exception to that. Nikki Haley won Vermont. Otherwise, Trump won everything.
0.94
00:04:24.660
Well, thank you very much. They call it Super Tuesday for a reason. This is a big one.
00:04:32.620
And they tell me, the pundits and otherwise, that there's never been one like this. There's never
00:04:37.680
been anything so conclusive. This was an amazing night, an amazing day. It's been an incredible
00:04:45.340
period of time in our country's history. It's been sad in so many ways. But I think it's going
00:04:51.320
to be inspiring because we're going to do something that, frankly, nobody's been able to do for a long
00:04:57.200
time. Very exciting for President Trump. Nikki can say that she got a victory. She got a victory in
00:05:07.420
Vermont. But other than that, the writing's on the wall. As of this moment, as we are recording this show,
00:05:13.080
Nikki Haley has not dropped out of the race. But she is going to. Every outlet is reporting that she
00:05:19.420
is set to make a speech sometime this morning. So I've instructed the producers. I've said,
00:05:24.340
hey, producers, go out there, find Nikki Haley's speech. If it happens, pipe it in live. Otherwise,
00:05:31.380
we'll get to it tomorrow. There won't be any news breaking. We all know it's going to happen.
00:05:35.980
If not now, it'll be tomorrow. If not tomorrow, it'll be the next day. But it is going to happen.
00:05:40.140
What will be interesting about the speech will be Nikki's
00:05:44.660
reasoning for how she can get out. Because Trump made this point a couple of weeks ago. He said,
00:05:52.600
Nikki Haley has put herself in a tough spot where she can't figure out how to wind down the campaign
0.99
00:05:59.800
because there was never a path to victory. So the campaign was always, well, we're going to go
00:06:04.920
despite impossible odds. We're not getting out of this race. I'm going nowhere. We're in it for
00:06:11.560
the long haul. Now, every campaign ends for the same reason. That's that the campaign's run out of
00:06:17.160
money. So the Koch network decided to pull their money from Nikki's campaign weeks ago. It's just
00:06:23.240
been a matter of time ever since then. So is her argument that, okay, now the voters have made their
00:06:31.740
decision clear. And so she's going to endorse the Republican nominee. Well, she just came out and
00:06:37.600
said she might not endorse the Republican nominee despite the pledge to endorse the eventual nominee,
00:06:42.500
which was the way that she got into the debates in the first place. Is she going to say, I'm not going
00:06:47.680
to endorse the Republican nominee? Okay, well, what's she going to do then? She's going to throw away her
0.91
00:06:51.900
vote. She's going to endorse Joe Biden. I can't imagine that. So I just, it'll be very,
00:06:56.720
very interesting to see what the reasoning there is. But in any case, you know, I know a lot of
00:07:02.260
people are not happy with Nikki Haley for sticking in the race this long, but I think it's pretty
00:07:06.060
impressive. The woman was considered a super duper long shot candidate when she first announced her
1.00
00:07:12.580
candidacy. Everyone thought that the stronger candidates would be people like DeSantis, certainly,
00:07:19.140
even Vivek. Some suggested Chris Chrissy and Chris Assange, Mike Pence. There were others on there.
00:07:26.140
People put Nikki Haley pretty low on the list and she made it to the number two spot. So,
0.99
00:07:31.180
you know, good for her, but all things must come to an end in this life and some sooner than others.
00:07:36.060
And it looks like Nikki's campaign is headed in that direction. So Trump
00:07:40.900
has now effectively secured the nomination, but not officially secured the nomination. There are still
00:07:49.320
more, more votes to go. The Super Tuesday contests awarded more than one third of the Republican
00:07:58.520
delegates, which means that they awarded more than 70% of the number of delegates that you need to
00:08:04.140
secure the nomination. In his speech, you heard a part of it there. I don't even think he mentioned
00:08:07.700
Nikki Haley. So it is over. Turning to the Democrat side of the presidential contest,
00:08:13.980
Joe Biden did fine because he's the incumbent and he theoretically should be running unopposed.
00:08:20.060
But there was another Democrat candidate who did shockingly well last night in the primaries.
00:08:25.460
And that candidate was uncommitted. Uncommitted did really well. Uncommitted scored 14.6% of the vote
00:08:35.740
in the Minnesota Democrat primary. Uncommitted scored 10.5% of the vote in North Carolina. Uncommitted scored
00:08:45.740
11.2% in Massachusetts. Joe Biden lost a huge number of votes when he was, for all intents and purposes,
00:08:57.480
the only candidate in the race. Not good news if you are Joe Biden. Joe Biden has lost control
00:09:06.780
of the narrative. Joe Biden has lost public support. That would be bad enough for Democrats,
00:09:14.160
except Democrats face this double whammy of a problem, which is that Joe Biden still has control
00:09:20.160
of the Democrat Party. So if it were merely that Joe Biden, he had been doing well, he was leader
00:09:27.080
of his party, but then he's lost control. So, okay, the Democrats are going to come in and replace him
00:09:31.760
with Gavin Newsom or with Kamala Harris, could you imagine? Or with Susan Rice or somebody else.
00:09:37.120
That would be one thing, but they can't do that. Joe Biden is firmly holding onto power. He's not
00:09:41.940
going to step down. He's not going to ask Michelle Obama, for goodness sakes, or Gavin Newsom or someone
00:09:47.540
to replace him. So he is in it. They are going to have to drag this guy dead out of the White House
00:09:52.680
if they want him out of there. But he just keeps losing support, so much so that Democrats are going
00:09:58.420
to the polls in a contest that is basically unopposed to vote for anyone else but him.
00:10:05.500
Okay, really, really bad news. And you're seeing that bad news reflected in the general election
00:10:10.340
polls because right now, Trump is way up. We'll get to that in one second. First, though,
00:10:13.960

00:10:51.160
delivered. New York Times-Siena poll has Trump up five points over Biden. Eight months left until
00:10:58.360
November, until the election. Joe Biden has 43% support. That is significantly behind Trump's 48%
00:11:08.200
support in a national survey of registered voters. So the only option left for the Democrats is to
00:11:16.760
cheat. Joe Biden's not going to get more popular than Trump. I guess they can wait for the prosecutions,
00:11:23.760
and then you'll get the headlines about all the criminal convictions. And Donald Trump, he's been found
00:11:28.280
guilty of 10 million crimes, and he's going to be sentenced to 10 bazillion years in prison. And then
00:11:34.340
once he's served his sentence, they're going to exhume his body, chop his head off, and drag it
1.00
00:11:38.300
through the street. Ah, yes, the great enemy of the people. Okay, the Democrats and the squishes think
0.99
00:11:43.800
that that's really going to sway public opinion to Biden. I think it'll probably have the opposite
00:11:46.920
effect. I think it's just so ridiculous. If they were only hitting Trump with one or two or three
0.98
00:11:52.200
criminal charges, it's one thing. But they're hitting him with, what, 91 criminal charges or something
00:11:56.340
like that, trying to sentence him to 700 years in prison. That looks absurd, even to a low-information
00:12:03.940
voter who might be inclined to side with the Democrats. So they can wait for the prosecutions.
00:12:07.900
I don't think it's going to really help Biden's popularity. And by the way, for a senile old man
00:12:13.260
who is clearly in a precipitous decline, eight months is a lifetime. Think about just with your
00:12:20.740
own grandparents or your parents if you've dealt with the decline of age in your family. You know
00:12:27.740
when the decline starts happening, a month or two can be a really long time, much less six months,
00:12:34.340
much less eight months. So the odds that Biden gets more popular, very, very slim. The odds that
00:12:42.860
they're able to kick Trump off the ballot, now zero. The odds that they're able to put Trump in prison,
00:12:48.160
pretty slim. And if they did, I think it would help his popularity and he could still run from prison.
00:12:53.380
So they can't make him less popular. Everyone knows everything about Trump. There's no scandal.
00:12:59.320
There's good luck finding the new scandal about Donald Trump. I think we've heard them all.
00:13:03.320
Most of them aren't real. And the ones that are real, people don't really care.
00:13:07.220
There's no way to disqualify him. So the only option left is to cheat.
00:13:12.180
So they're going to go after voter integrity measures. They're going to go after voter ID.
00:13:16.000
They're going to try to spread out those ballot drop boxes so that you can't really keep an eye on
00:13:21.120
them. They're going to try to drag out the voter count just like they did in 2020. They're going
00:13:25.180
to use all sorts of shady Democrat money like the Zuck Bucks that went in to move those ballot drop
00:13:30.880
boxes away from the county clerk offices. In some cases, it was illegal. They're going to try everything.
00:13:36.280
It's going to be spaghetti at the wall because the plan A and the plan B just did not work.
00:13:41.860
Now, there's another wild card in the race, and that would be Bobby Kennedy Jr. So Bobby
00:13:47.700
Kennedy Jr., his father ran for president and was assassinated while running. His uncle was the
00:13:52.720
president, was assassinated while president. Joe Biden, I think, still won't give this guy
00:13:56.860
Secret Service protection. That's not a good look either. But Bobby Kennedy was running in the
00:14:01.120
Democrat primary, but he's got some appeal to conservatives. He's one, he's an old-timey kind
00:14:07.460
of Democrat. You know, a 1960s kind of Democrat. He's still a big liberal, but the country's moved
00:14:13.780
so far to the left that some conservatives now are happy with 1960s liberalism. Not me, but some
00:14:19.320
people on the right are. And because Bobby Kennedy was right during COVID. So because Bobby Kennedy has
00:14:24.420
this strong focus on vaccines, and for decades now he's said that vaccines are not particularly safe
00:14:32.400
during COVID. He was so skeptical of big pharma and the medical industry that he turned out to be
00:14:40.540
proven true in his skepticism, proven correct in his skepticism. So a lot of right-wingers like him
00:14:45.440
for that. Anyway, he was gone nowhere in the Democrat primary. He was polling 20%, but that seemed to be
00:14:50.080
the ceiling. And the party, because the Democrat party has much more control over its nomination
00:14:55.180
process, they weren't going to let him go anywhere. You saw how unfairly they treated Bernie Sanders back
00:15:00.320
in 2016. It was going to be that times 20 with Bobby Kennedy. So then Kennedy decides to run as an
00:15:05.580
independent candidate because he was pulling a lot of right-wing voters anyway. Now, however, the
00:15:11.360
reports are that Bobby Kennedy is looking to be the libertarian nominee for president. So according to
00:15:16.660
Ron Nielsen, who was the campaign manager for the 2012 and 2016 Libertarian Party presidential nominee,
00:15:25.020
he says there's a lot of buzz going on. There's a lot of interest in Bobby Kennedy. If he were
00:15:30.300
to say that he were to accept the nomination of the Libertarian Party, that would probably change a
00:15:35.320
lot of heads. There are people within the liberty movement that would like to help him. And okay,
00:15:40.520
that's what the Libertarian Party says. What does Kennedy say? Well, according to a source in
00:15:44.260
Kennedy's orbit, quote, there is a willingness of people in the liberty movement to consider Bobby
00:15:51.200
for sure. This was a campaign source speaking on the condition of anonymity. He is a rogue punk rocker of
00:15:58.380
the political system. So it seems as though Kennedy is at least open to the prospect of being the
00:16:02.900
Libertarian nominee. Why would he do it? You know, the Libertarian nominee for president is never going
00:16:09.600
to win the presidency. At least if Bobby Kennedy is running this independent campaign without a
00:16:14.360
political party behind him, it seems as though maybe he's got a chance. This is unheard of. He's
00:16:18.440
shaking things up. But if he's just going to become the Libertarian Party nominee, it seems like he's
00:16:22.580
just, he's marginalizing himself, right? Well, Kennedy wants to appear on the ballots around the
00:16:27.100
country. And in order to appear on the ballots around the country, you need to have some party
00:16:30.320
support. You need to have some kind of operation, a national apparatus. He currently lacks that.
00:16:36.960
So I think it makes perfect sense for him to do that. The Libertarian Party is one vehicle for him
00:16:43.900
to do that. He's not going to run as the Green Party candidate. He's not going to run as some other
00:16:46.700
party candidate. So I guess it's a natural fit. And he is kind of a Libertarian. The 1960s liberals are
00:16:54.380
kind of Libertarians today. I mean, Libertarians are a very broad group. And, you know, I mean no
00:17:00.660
disrespect. They're the kind of internet lolbertarians who are basically just neoconservatives who like
00:17:09.860
to do drugs. And then there are the more hardcore, principled Libertarians who, you know, have mini
00:17:15.820
guns on their ranches and, you know, are willing to start firing anytime even a county-level government
00:17:22.860
agent pops up anywhere on the horizon. So it's a big tent, I guess you would say, for the Libertarians.
00:17:29.000
But it's a natural fit. And Bobby Kennedy is not going to be president anyway. So might as well get
00:17:33.600
as many votes as he can, as far as I'm concerned. But again, still a losing proposition. I like it
00:17:38.980
because I think he'll pull more votes from Biden than he will from Trump. That's been my contention
00:17:43.020
the whole time. And the polls seem to have proven me to be correct, much as I hate to say I told you so.
00:17:47.640
So, okay, happy to do it. Good for the Libertarians, good for Bobby Kennedy, but most especially good for
0.84
00:17:54.960
the conservatives and Trump. Fine by me. Speaking of libertinism, the first over-the-counter
00:18:01.580
contraception pill is headed to stores. This announcement came yesterday. This is from the
00:18:07.240
manufacturer Perigo and says that the drug called Opil is in transit to major retailers and pharmacies,
00:18:14.060
which will make it much easier to get birth control pills. Now, some people are going to like
00:18:20.620
this. The Libertarians are going to like this, probably. The liberals are really going to like
00:18:25.020
this. Even some self-styled conservatives are going to like this. They're going to say, oh, well,
00:18:29.680
why do we need a prescription for this kind of pill? A lot of people use it. They're just cutting
00:18:34.340
back the red tape. Might as well let people buy it across the counter. Okay.
00:18:37.800
My question is, what good does this do? What is the good that can come of this?
00:18:49.540
Well, now people have access to contraception. People have access to contraception. Any adult who
00:18:55.780
wants contraception can get it right now. You go to your doctor, they write you a prescription,
00:18:59.620
you get the birth control pill. So what does this change? Well, now you don't have to go to your
00:19:06.440
doctor. Okay. So I guess the positive development that will come about with over-the-counter
00:19:13.540
contraception is that women will go to the doctor less frequently. Is that a good thing? I don't know
0.85
00:19:17.080
if that's a good thing. I should go to the doctor more than I do. Isn't that okay? What's really
00:19:22.200
going to happen here? The only real change that's going to happen is that it's going to be easier for
00:19:28.140
minors to have promiscuous sex. It's going to be easier for teenagers who can't get their parents
00:19:33.780
permission to go to the doctor to get the contraception to just go into the drugstore
00:19:37.360
and buy it over-the-counter. Because it's available, according to the news reports,
00:19:40.880
it's available to everyone. There's no age limit on it. So that's really what this is about. The
00:19:45.340
only social change that will come about as a result of over-the-counter contraception
0.67
00:19:49.980
is that minors will have an easier time having promiscuous sex. Is that good? Is that a good thing?
0.95
00:19:59.180
I don't think that's a good thing. Probably reasonable people don't think that's a good
00:20:03.500
thing. But then on the list of national priorities, that's what we're focusing on.
00:20:09.920
You have the American people crying out. They're saying, hey, could you please fix the economy
00:20:17.180
and maybe close up the border, stop all the drugs and crime and stuff, maybe arrest the violent
00:20:24.000
criminals on the street? Can you just do anything like the basic aspects of government? Can you do
00:20:30.900
those? And then the liberals come in and they say, hmm, yeah, sorry, best I can do is more promiscuous
0.98
00:20:36.640
sex for teenagers. This is, sorry, that's the best I can do. But you can get it at any drugstore you
1.00
00:20:42.280
want now. Is that, oh, also you can get the abortion pill at the two largest pharmacies in America.
00:20:47.520
So now you can, you can have a underage sex and kill babies. That's the best I can do. But the
1.00
00:20:53.920
border is going to be open. The economy is going to be terrible and crime is going to go through
00:20:57.820
the roof. Sorry. That's, that's the deal. Democrats 2024. Hmm. Doesn't, doesn't seem very persuasive.
00:21:07.020
And I don't think it is persuasive, which is why this Democrats election strategy is going to have
00:21:10.380
to be to cheat. There is much more to say. First though, go to luxblocks.com. Use promo code

00:22:33.680
This sex stuff is becoming a big issue. It might be the big issue for the Democrats in 2024.
1.00
00:22:42.320
Sometimes people accuse me of spending too much. I'll say three times a week, maybe, I don't know,
00:22:46.900
four times a week. I'll mention some weird sex political story. I'm not the one who writes the
00:22:53.580
news stories. I'm not the one who creates the news. And it's not the conservatives who are creating
00:22:58.760
these news stories. It's the libs pushing for the abortion pill in the drugstores. It's the libs
00:23:04.560
pushing for the underage contraception over the counter. It's the libs pushing for all this stuff.
1.00
00:23:11.300
And then the moment we react, it's the libs who are pretending men can be women and allowing men to
0.87
00:23:15.540
go into the women's bathroom. It's the libs who are changing the definition of marriage. It's the
1.00
00:23:18.500
libs who are doing all this stuff. And then the minute conservatives say, hey, maybe should we not?
00:23:23.180
Hey, do you think, then they say, why are you so obsessed with sex?
00:23:26.280
We're not the ones doing it. And here's the latest proof of this.
00:23:30.080
The guest list for the State of the Union has come out. It's actually trickling out because
00:23:34.620
the individual members of Congress and the senators are each entitled to invite one guest.
00:23:42.860
And so those are beginning to trickle out now. The president gets to invite more people. The
00:23:46.800
first lady gets to invite more people. So between the president and the first lady, they get something
0.75
00:23:51.040
like 25 to 50 guests or something like that. And the first lady has decided to invite Kate Cox
0.82
00:24:01.680
as one of her guests. Kate Cox is a woman who sued the government for the right to murder her child
00:24:09.020
through abortion, to violate the pro-life laws and to kill her child. So Jill Biden, you know,
0.84
00:24:15.600
the wife of that devout Catholic Joe Biden, she decided that she was going to make one of her
00:24:20.520
guests, maybe the most prominent one, a woman only known for murdering her child and for suing
0.64
00:24:29.640
to murder her child. Senator Patty Murray, Democrat Senator from Washington, she's inviting Kayla Smith.
1.00
00:24:38.140
Kayla Smith is a central Washington resident, and she is known for also murdering her child. That's
1.00
00:24:46.280
what she's known for. She wanted to murder her child through abortion. And the laws in Idaho, her state,
1.00
00:24:53.720
her then state of residence, said, no, you can't murder your kids. And so she made a big deal about
0.86
00:25:01.660
this. And then she went to Seattle and killed her kid in Seattle. And now she lives in Washington,
0.99
00:25:05.740
where Patty Murray is the senator. Okay. So that's, that's kind of odd. We're just inviting
00:25:11.200
abortionists to, okay. And then Senator Tim Kaine, the man who was almost one heartbeat away from
00:25:18.300
becoming the second woman president, Senator Tim Kaine has invited Elizabeth Carr. Elizabeth Carr is the
00:25:24.560
first person to be born via in vitro fertilization. So now you're seeing a broadening out, not just of
00:25:29.740
abortion or contraception or, but a broadening out of this sexual revolution to include the
00:25:37.260
commodity, commodification of human beings through IVF. And so I, the first person born via IVF, I think
00:25:45.220
was born in the late seventies. I think it was 1978, but obviously this was an extremely experimental
00:25:50.620
technology back then. It slowly began to gain traction in the 1980s. Into the 1990s, it starts to take off,
00:25:57.280
but, but only recently has become a major, major political issue because in particular, because
00:26:04.660
of the redefinition of marriage and the loosening of what remained of the sexual mores to the point
00:26:11.760
that now IVF is not merely used by couples who are having trouble conceiving naturally. So they go to
00:26:18.020
the doctor and they go through this novel technological treatment, but now it's also two dudes who just
00:26:24.480
as a matter of nature can't conceive a child together. They will go, they'll go shopping in
00:26:30.280
a catalog. They'll find a woman, they'll purchase her eggs. Then they'll find another poor woman.
1.00
00:26:35.120
They'll rent her womb for a little bit. Then they'll hire a doctor. They'll hire a scientist.
1.00
00:26:40.720
And then they'll purchase a child made to order in a laboratory. And then the child will gestate
00:26:46.860
using the egg of the mother that he will never meet. The child will be intentionally deprived of that
00:26:51.500
mother. And then growing in the womb of this woman that has been paid just to be a rented vessel to
1.00
00:26:59.180
grow a child. The only mother that that child has ever known, that child will be ripped immediately
00:27:04.300
from that mother's arms and then sold to the men who ordered the child from the baby store.
0.81
00:27:11.880
And I was thinking about this last night because it's a longstanding common joke when you're talking
00:27:19.140
to, you know, like a little kid. I do this with my kids sometimes and the kids are really acting up,
00:27:23.560
you know, or they're crying and say, you know, if you keep whining, I'm going to return you to the
00:27:27.000
baby store. Don't make, I'm going to have to call and get a refund from the baby store. Ha ha,
00:27:32.280
tee hee hee. But that joke, which was an absurdity for all of human history until five minutes ago,
00:27:37.280
is now a reality. It's a reality in that there are now baby stores, which is
00:27:42.260
at the very heart of the problems with the IVF and surrogacy industry is you turn people away from
00:27:48.700
being proper subjects with, with human rights, with, you know, a place in society into being
00:27:55.860
objects to be bought and sold on an open market. That's one of the big problems with, with the IVF
00:28:00.900
and surrogacy industry. But, but not only do you, do you have that happening? Not only do you have the
00:28:05.740
existence of the baby store, but, but now in some cases you can sort of return the baby to the baby
00:28:12.300
store. There was a famous case. I talked about it on the show just a few months ago of two guys who
00:28:18.340
ordered a baby and then the, they rented the woman's womb. They bought the egg. They went to
0.97
00:28:25.060
the woman's womb. And then the woman had to have a certain medical treatments. I think she came down
00:28:29.780
with cancer. And so the baby was damaged. You know, the baby was injured as the baby was growing. And
00:28:37.120
so the, the guys said, okay, we'll kill the baby. We don't, we don't want a baby who's going to have
0.99
00:28:41.300
any abnormalities. We don't want a baby who's going to have any kind of mental disabilities or physical
00:28:47.100
disabilities. So kill it. And the woman said, I don't want to kill the baby. And the men said,
1.00
00:28:50.720
well, it's our baby. You know, you're just the womb. We're just renting your womb. That's our,
0.95
00:28:53.880
that baby's our property. And if we want to kill that baby, we're going to kill that baby.
1.00
00:28:56.880
Uh, major, major problem. Uh, you, you've seen cases of lawsuits where the, the couple of guys
1.00
00:29:03.160
will go to the baby store, the IVF factory, and they'll say, okay, we want a boy, you know,
00:29:07.620
or we want a girl. I guess it would be, usually guys want guys, you know, a little, a little boy
00:29:12.060
to play catch with or something. And so they go, they order the boy and then they end up getting
00:29:15.540
a girl, but they don't want a girl. So they say, okay, kill it. We don't want it. Return it to the
1.00
00:29:18.940
baby store. So anyway, all of this to say, uh, really terrible situation for human dignity and bioethics.
00:29:26.880
And Tim Kaine has decided to make that his cause, his cause celeb. It's just all weird
00:29:33.780
sex stuff that cuts against the natural law and the rights of individuals and against human dignity.
0.69
00:29:42.060
Now there's a kind of a fun announcement that I get to make here amid all this terrible news,
00:29:47.780
which is that I will also be attending the state of the union. I'm, I'm really honored to say I was
00:29:54.400
invited by, uh, my Congressman, Congressman Andy Ogles. I will be his guest at the state of the
00:29:59.020
union. And it's always an honor to, to go, you know, you're there in this joint session, uh, with
00:30:04.940
the president of the United States and the Supreme court, joint chiefs of staff, the house of
00:30:09.480
representatives, the Senate, all the rest. Uh, but it's a, it's a special honor this year to attend
00:30:14.440
the state of the union, because I think I am possibly the only guest who has been invited to the
00:30:21.200
state of the union, uh, not for having an abortion, not for promoting abortion, not for promoting any
00:30:28.480
of these, uh, attacks on, uh, human dignity and the natural law. So what a real honor. There are
00:30:35.300
some other people who have been invited. I'm skipping over a number of guests here, uh, but, but some
00:30:39.320
aren't even going like in this case, Alexei Navalny's widow, the Russian opposition leader who was just
00:30:45.800
killed by Putin. His widow, uh, was invited. She can't make it. So the Democrats really, they'll,
00:30:51.860
they'll invite lots of other people. And the, the other members of Congress and the senators
00:30:55.540
will invite various guests. Some will be family members of theirs. Some will be donors of theirs.
00:31:00.140
Some will be guests to make a political point. Um, a huge number of them on the Democrat side are
00:31:09.740
leaning into this issue. They want this to be the issue for 2024 vote for us in 2024. We'll help you
00:31:17.260
kill your kids. We'll let you buy kids on the open market. We vote for us. Okay. Uh, I don't think
1.00
00:31:23.160
that's a really great campaign theme that, you know, far be it for me to advise the Democrat party.
00:31:27.800
But in any case, I will very much look forward to being there, not only to witness some history
00:31:33.040
happen tomorrow, but also to provide a little bit of a philosophical counterbalance, a political
00:31:40.100
counterbalance to some really, really heinous guest decision. Is your home's title still in your name

00:32:14.780
beyond the United States on this issue of abortion. France has just voted to make abortion a constitutional
00:32:22.340
right. France has become the first country in the world to explicitly include a right to
00:32:29.760
abortion in its constitution. How do they do this? French constitution works a little bit different
00:32:35.480
from ours. The France's revolution was a little different from ours. The American revolution was
00:32:40.380
much more conservative. The French revolution was extremely radical and bloody. And so France has a
00:32:46.360
constitutional council and France's parliamentarians have voted to revise the country's 1958 constitution
00:32:54.000
to enshrine abortion as a matter of women's freedom. So this has been building for a while. In a 2001
00:33:02.660
ruling, France's constitutional council based its approval of abortion on the notion of liberty enshrined
00:33:11.080
in the 1789 declaration of the rights of man. So this is the document that expresses the view of the French
00:33:19.700
revolution. And it's technically part of the constitution. And that to me is the key to the
00:33:25.980
whole thing. Since the French revolution, since 1789, you have seen bloody, bloody radicalism in France
00:33:36.300
and spilling out throughout Europe. And this new abortion law is just the latest bloodshedding
00:33:42.160
from that revolution. How many babies will be killed because of this can't even be estimated.
00:33:50.160
But this is part of the revolution, you know. I mean, I won't sing the French national anthem in
00:33:57.880
French because my French isn't very good. But it's right there in the lyrics. Her bloody standard has
0.97
00:34:03.780
been raised. Do you hear in the countryside the roar of those ferocious soldiers? They come right into
00:34:10.080
your arms, to tear the throats of your sons. This is the lyrics of the French national anthem.
00:34:18.440
Allons vente la patrie. I said I wouldn't do it, but there you have it. But the lyrics are very,
00:34:23.780
very bloody because the French revolution, which overthrew the church and the throne,
00:34:29.460
which you can never really overthrow the church, but it overturned the altar at least.
00:34:34.020
You know, it's where we have the origins of the modern terms right and left. The right and the
00:34:42.400
left first described where people were sitting in the National Assembly. And on the right, you had the
00:34:47.300
conservatives who were the monarchists and the Catholics. And on the left, you had the leftists.
00:34:53.620
You had the revolutionaries. You had the people who were secular, atheistic, and leveling and
00:34:59.300
egalitarian and all the rest of it. And unfortunately, they won. And that bloodiness has
1.00
00:35:04.060
been written in from the beginning. And you know what else is crazy? Even with this horrific turn
00:35:12.200
of events in France, France still broadly has a more conservative abortion policy than the United
00:35:18.660
States. The United States doesn't have any guaranteed right to an abortion any longer in
0.79
00:35:23.000
the Constitution. Though liberal jurists pretended that we did until, what, two years ago? They
00:35:28.560
pretended that we did for almost 50 years because of the Rev. Wade decision. So actually, I guess we
00:35:33.160
were ahead of the curve, even vis-a-vis revolutionary France. But furthermore, in certain states in the
00:35:41.500
country, you could have an abortion until the moment of birth or after birth, I guess in the case of
00:35:47.120
Virginia, according to Democrat Governor Ralph Northam. The baby comes out, you don't want the baby.
00:35:50.920
You can make him comfortable and then wait to see if you want to kill him or not.
0.52
00:35:53.280
In France, the limit used to be 12 weeks. And then they raised it some years ago to be 14 weeks.
00:36:00.380
But there's still a clear limit on when you can have an abortion. So we read this news in France.
00:36:04.680
We say, oh my goodness gracious, this is so bloody. This is so horrific. This is so evil. And then you
00:36:08.500
look at the policy in the United States. You say, well, our own policy has been just as bad. And
00:36:14.900
practically speaking, a lot of the country is much worse. Really causes an American to take a look in
00:36:19.940
the mirror. Speaking of actions overseas, Russia has been in the headlines for weeks thanks to the
00:36:26.600
actions of Vladimir Putin. To comprehend Putin's motivations, we must examine the historical context
00:36:31.860
that shaped his behaviors. In the new season of what we saw in Empire of Terror, host Bill Whittle
00:36:36.300
unmasks communism by taking a close look at the history of the Soviet Union. With the use of deep
0.74
00:36:40.960
cut photographs in film, journal entries, and other primary sources, this tale of terror offers a
00:36:46.260
compelling presentation of the horrors that plagued the Soviet Union and the viciousness of its leaders.

00:37:20.540
No, you won't. Because lowercase g, lowercase k, Mr. God King Jeremy Boring demanded that I not
00:37:28.040
shave for a couple days for a secret project. We've done the secret project. I have shaven. I'm baby face
00:37:35.260
again. I am very grateful to all of you. I say all of you. There were probably three of you who said
00:37:41.760
that my whiskers in any way looked good. Some of you thought it looked kind of rugged, you know,
00:37:46.140
but most of you thought it looked filthy and disgusting, and I looked like I shouldn't be
00:37:50.980
allowed near an elementary school. So it's gone now. I feel much better. Thank you very much.
00:37:56.180
Speaking of leftism and foreign affairs, the feminist and queer theorist Judith Butler,
00:38:05.740
probably the most famous living feminist, certainly one of the most famous living feminists,
1.00
00:38:10.860
has just weighed in and gone viral for weighing in on the Israel-Palestine conflict for some reason.
00:38:17.540
We can have different views about Hamas as a political party. We can have different views
00:38:26.080
about armed resistance. But I think it is more honest and historically correct to say that the
00:38:36.960
uprising of October 7th was an act of armed resistance. It is not a terrorist attack, and it's
00:38:44.100
not an anti-Semitic attack. I would be very foolish if I then decided that the only violence in the
00:38:53.340
scene was the violence done to Israeli people. The violence done to Palestinians has been happening
0.95
00:38:59.600
for decades. This was an uprising that comes out, that comes from a state of subjugation and against
00:39:09.120
a violent state apparatus. Okay, let us be clear. Okay, let us be clear here. This is an uprising.
00:39:18.620
I guess it's the same stuff we would hear in revolutionary France. Judith Butler, I guess,
00:39:26.060
is Jewish. I just saw her lower third there said, Judith Butler, a member of Jewish Voices for Peace.
00:39:33.780
And Judith Butler would not be the only Jew who has come out in defense of the Palestine
0.78
00:39:39.900
liberation movement. Norman Finkelstein, very famously, the academic, has favored that movement.
00:39:46.860
And there are plenty of others. I mean, there's the longstanding trope of the self-hating Jew,
00:39:53.400
and Jews in particular in America tend to be pretty liberal. So actually, a lot of the loudest
0.99
00:39:58.520
pro-Palestine voices ironically tend to be Jews, and then the conservative Jews and the more religious
00:40:04.320
Jews really don't like them or that opinion, and they all kind of duke it out. The reason I bring
1.00
00:40:10.620
this up is not even really to focus on the Israel-Palestine conflict. Certainly, it's not to focus on
00:40:17.700
queer theory or feminism. It's to turn to a little rule of thumb in politics. And the rule of thumb is
1.00
00:40:25.480
when you lack knowledge about some political issue. And when we're talking about Israel-Palestine,
00:40:33.760
I mean, the one thing Judith Butler said that is certainly true is this conflict goes on for a
00:40:38.500
long time. I guess that's, in that regard, I guess she's right. But everything else, she's a little
00:40:45.180
kooky. But it goes on for a long time. Most people don't know a damn thing about it. And most of the
00:40:50.720
people who present themselves as experts on this conflict probably know less than even your average
00:40:54.660
person about the issue. But a good rule of thumb in politics is if a person is wrong about everything,
00:41:04.080
if you know that a person is wrong about feminism, you know that a person is wrong about queer theory,
00:41:08.860
you know that a person is wrong about American history, you know that a person is wrong about
00:41:13.020
academia, you know that a person is wrong about religion and philosophy and ethics and the relation
00:41:20.060
of man to man and man to state and everything else, and then you come across this person's
00:41:26.780
opinion on an issue that you don't know anything about, it's probably a pretty safe bet that the
00:41:35.360
person is wrong about that too. I remember when I was a young conservative, I was a little bit
00:41:40.940
more libertarian in my teenage years, I know. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. But I would
00:41:46.700
think, you know, the Republicans, they're right about so much, and the Democrats are right about
00:41:51.160
so much, but I don't know, these Republicans, they just need to get hip with the times, you know, and
00:41:55.960
you know, just get rid of drug laws or something. I don't know, whatever the libertarian obsession
00:42:00.860
du jour was. The Republicans, they need to back off this marriage stuff. The Republicans, they need to
0.98
00:42:05.080
back off this pro-life stuff. The Republicans, they need to back off social issues. I don't know,
00:42:08.320
whatever, whatever I thought. Something you learn over time is, if all these people,
00:42:16.700
throughout the country, for a long period of time, but even if we're just looking at present
00:42:23.540
day, if all these people agree on all of these issues, and then this other group of people, they
00:42:30.520
all broadly agree on this other set of issues, what is more likely that the two groups of people
00:42:39.620
have arrived at a basically coherent kind of set of beliefs deriving from a basically kind of
00:42:45.820
coherent set of first principles? Or that you just figured out why they're totally wrong,
00:42:51.980
and you're going to rejumble all of those political alliances? Because, you know, the Republicans and
00:42:56.900
the Democrats, they just don't really understand that actually, on marriage, they should be flipped,
00:43:00.620
or on drugs, they should be flipped, or on this or that or the other. What is more likely?
00:43:05.880
That all the people, all the really smart people, even some of the dumb people,
0.90
00:43:09.160
all of them are just totally wrong, and you alone are right, or that maybe you just haven't thought
0.77
00:43:14.940
through this issue. And if you did think through it enough, you would probably come to the conclusion
00:43:18.600
that your compatriots did. This is a rule of thumb. It's an informal, logical fallacy. I'm not
00:43:24.880
saying this is a totally slam-dunk way of thinking. But we need rules of thumb. You know,
00:43:29.940
we need little quick, we can't write a 20-page research paper for every decision we want to
00:43:33.820
make throughout the day. When you notice that AOC and Judith Butler and BLM and all the libs and all
00:43:45.000
these on your, and your purple-haired lesbian cousin who hates America and, you know, thinks that she's
0.98
00:43:51.140
a man or whatever. When they're all on this one side of this issue, this issue that maybe you don't
0.96
00:43:56.620
even care that much about, and you don't really know anything about, and it doesn't seem to affect you
00:43:59.420
that. It seems to me, at least, a pretty good bet that the other side is the preferable one,
00:44:07.960
if you have to get involved in the issue at all. Now, speaking of threats and foreign policy,
00:44:13.160
there is a new bill that is up in the House of Representatives. I think this is a brilliant bill,
00:44:19.060
very important bill. It's called the Lakin-Riley Act. The Lakin-Riley Act is a bill that would require
00:44:26.340
the Secretary of Homeland Security to take into custody illegal aliens who have been charged in
00:44:32.280
the United States with theft. Why theft? Who's Lakin-Riley? Lakin-Riley is that university student
00:44:39.700
who was murdered, allegedly, by an illegal alien. Why theft here? You could see why, and say,
00:44:47.880
okay, they have to take into custody illegal aliens who murder people. I'm not even sure that those guys
00:44:52.140
always get sent to prison. But why theft? Well, it's because this guy, the man who allegedly
00:44:59.200
murdered Lakin-Riley, illegal alien arrested after entering the country illegally in September of 2022.
00:45:06.760
Fast forward to 2023, the guy gets arrested in Queens, New York, for endangering a five-year-old son.
00:45:15.100
Five-year-old son was arrested, or the five-year-old son, rather, was riding on the back of a moped
00:45:20.140
head without a helmet. That's not good. That's according to the New York Post. Then, about a
00:45:25.960
month after this arrest in New York, he and his brother were accused of stealing from a Walmart
00:45:31.200
in Athens, Georgia. So you're noticing a pattern here. He just keeps getting arrested, keeps getting
00:45:35.580
released. When he gets arrested for shoplifting, he's given a little citation for misdemeanor
00:45:41.400
shoplifting, and he's let go. And then, allegedly, he murders this poor girl. So what's urgent about
00:45:50.280
this act is we need to stop these criminal aliens from killing innocent Americans. We need to stop
1.00
00:45:55.180
the invasion of foreigners across our border that Joe Biden is encouraging. But what's really brilliant
1.00
00:45:59.880
about this act is, one, who could disagree with this? An illegal alien gets charged with a crime, and
0.96
00:46:05.840
they have to be taken into custody. They have to be arrested. I'm not even saying deported, just they
00:46:10.280
have to be arrested. What Democrat can say, no, no, we support the right of illegal aliens to
0.98
00:46:16.540
shoplift? No, no, Democrat. I don't care how crazy you are. You can't really say that with a straight
00:46:21.400
face. And then, the second thing that's brilliant about this is it's called the Lake and Riley Act,
00:46:26.320
and it puts a face to it. The Democrats are really, really good at putting faces to problems. Look at
00:46:31.420
Tim Kaine. Tim Kaine is inviting the first person born via IVF. So we think, well, that's good. That's
0.87
00:46:36.780
good that that person exists. Never mind all the people who have been blotted out, who have been
00:46:41.680
killed with the encouragement of Democrats through abortion. You don't see those. But in this case of
0.61
00:46:46.260
this one person through IVF, we say, that's good that that person exists. You don't see the face of
00:46:50.020
the babies who were then aborted because of the IVF and surrogacy industry. You don't see the face of
00:46:54.160
the babies who were intentionally deprived of their mothers or their fathers because of the IVF and
00:46:58.500
surrogacy industry. You don't see the people being bought and sold. You just see the really,
00:47:02.020
the nicest aspect of the thing. And then, when it comes to illegal immigration, what happens?
00:47:09.140
I mean, even more at the State of the Union, you don't see the faces of the babies who are being
00:47:12.040
killed. It's just the mothers who got to have their rights. And, oh, we're putting that person
0.99
00:47:15.960
there in the gallery to highlight them during the speech. Okay. Case of illegal aliens, though,
0.99
00:47:20.980
we never see the faces of the victims of the illegal aliens. We're all, in a way, victims of the
0.95
00:47:26.440
illegal aliens because they're violating our most basic laws and undermining our right to
1.00
00:47:29.520
self-government. But you don't see the victims of the people who are killed. You just see the
00:47:34.900
dreamers, the poor, helpless foreigners. Give us your unwashed masses. No. What this act does is
1.00
00:47:41.860
says, no, there are real victims here. They need to have even some basic modicum of justice. And we
00:47:47.320
dare you, Democrats, to vote against it. The rest of the show continues now. You don't want to miss it.
