Summary

A new study has discovered that artificial intelligence can now predict people s political orientation even from blank faces, which is not at all surprising to me because most of us can predict people's political orientation by looking at them. And a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate in Arizona has called for an end to abortion restrictions in the wake of a recent Supreme Court ruling.

00:00:37.680 A new investigation published in the American Psychologist Journal has discovered that artificial intelligence can now predict people's political orientation even from blank faces, which is not at all surprising to me.
00:00:52.460 If your face is blank, you are probably a liberal.
00:00:55.300 This is not even an original observation.
00:00:58.240 Bob Hope expressed the same intuition in 1940.
00:01:02.100 The zombie has no will of his own.
00:01:04.800 You see them sometimes walking around blindly with dead eyes, following orders, not knowing what they do, not caring.
00:01:12.620 You mean like Democrats?
00:01:14.280 Even beyond the blank faces, I don't mean to diminish the study.
00:01:18.440 But is this discovery really that impressive?
00:01:20.980 Most of us can predict people's politics by looking at them.
00:01:25.420 If you have crazy colored hair and weird piercings and look like you hate your dad, you're probably a liberal.
00:01:32.540 If you're wearing a collared shirt and part your hair, you're probably a conservative.
00:01:38.140 More controversially, if you're a black person, you're probably a Democrat.
00:01:42.620 I don't like that fact.
00:01:44.440 I wish that fact weren't true.
00:01:46.100 I'm friends, as some of you know, with many black Republicans.
00:01:49.280 But it's just statistics.
00:01:50.940 Around 90% of black people are Democrats.
00:01:53.620 And 90% odds are pretty good for predictions.
00:01:56.560 If you're a young white woman, you are also probably a Democrat.
00:02:01.060 It's less certain, but it's also pretty good odds.
00:02:03.640 We are impressed by the supposed predictive power of these machines, not because the power is in itself impressive, but because political correctness, wokeness, has shamed us into denying that we have the same power ourselves.
00:02:21.300 We have been told for decades that pattern recognition and predictions are prejudiced and therefore evil.
00:02:28.180 But we all act on prejudices all day, all the time.
00:02:31.900 If we had to write out technical, analytical treatises on the motivations for every decision that we make, we would not be able to get out of bed in the morning.
00:02:42.980 AI has its algorithms.
00:02:45.940 Human beings have our guts.
00:02:48.020 They are both wrong sometimes.
00:02:49.620 They can both be used in unjust ways.
00:02:51.800 But they are also both necessary tools for fulfilling our purposes.
00:02:55.680 And they're often pretty accurate, whether we want to admit it or not.
00:02:59.740 I'm Michael Knowles.
00:03:00.380 This is The Michael Knowles Show.
00:03:01.900 The liberal globalists are ramping up the censorship regime, coincidentally, in the lead up to the 2024 election.
00:03:27.360 It's not only affecting America, it is affecting the entire world.
00:03:31.680 It is coming to a screen near you.
00:03:34.480 It's coming to a social media account near you.
00:03:36.720 We will get into the latest development and how, you know, I hate to say I told you so.
00:03:41.180 And we will be interviewing one of the key figures in this story, Billboard Chris, later on in the member block, member segmentum.
00:03:48.520 So stick around for that.
00:03:49.340 First, though, speaking of predicting things, some really, really great news.
00:03:56.860 Carrie Lake, who is a Republican running for Senate in Arizona, has just come out and described Arizona's lack of enforcement of an 1864 abortion ban as unfortunate.
00:04:13.980 Just one little word is the whole news story here.
00:04:17.880 But it's a really important news story, and I'm really pleased to see it.
00:04:21.760 Carrie Lake just did this interview with the Idaho Dispatch.
00:04:24.220 She was asked about a recent court decision that said, yes, an Arizona law from 1864 can be enforced to ban abortions in the wake of the Dobbs decision, which overrules Roe v. Wade.
00:04:37.000 Pro-lifers were thrilled by this court decision.
00:04:40.420 This is great.
00:04:41.220 The people of Arizona voted a long time ago, but they still voted to ban abortion, to stop killing little babies in the state.
00:04:49.000 And this is great news.
00:04:51.220 And Carrie Lake then came out against that decision, as did some other politicians around the country.
00:04:58.360 But we'll just focus on the Arizona politicians for a second.
00:05:00.940 And pro-lifers were kind of outraged by this.
00:05:03.060 And now Carrie Lake has come out and said, the Arizona Supreme Court said this is the law of Arizona.
00:05:07.620 But unfortunately, the people running our state have said we are not going to enforce it.
00:05:14.300 She was very disappointed in the Arizona governor, Katie Hobbs, and Attorney General Chris Mays, both Democrats.
00:05:21.220 Carrie Lake said, we don't have that law as much as many of us wish we did.
00:05:27.260 So what's going on here?
00:05:29.300 Well, you will recall a few weeks ago, Carrie Lake's campaign put out some glossy new video where she seemed to squish on abortion.
00:05:38.180 And at the time, I said, I like Carrie Lake.
00:05:42.660 I want her to win this race in Arizona.
00:05:45.900 I want her to be a senator from Arizona.
00:05:47.900 But this was a dumb move from the Lake campaign to squish on abortion.
00:05:52.760 It's not going to attract any voters from the pro-abortion side.
00:05:56.420 Instead, it's going to alienate voters from the pro-life side, which Republicans need because they're very effective boots on the ground.
00:06:02.760 And it's a bedrock principle.
00:06:04.820 So I'm not saying you've got to campaign on this as your number one issue.
00:06:07.840 As a matter of prudence, probably you should not.
00:06:10.240 But likewise, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
00:06:14.120 Don't try to split the baby.
00:06:15.520 I don't know how many more baby metaphors I have, but don't do it.
00:06:18.360 Don't all of a sudden become a pro-abortion candidate.
00:06:20.180 And I said, in, I thought, charity and prudence, I said, I don't think this was just a decision that Carrie Lake made one day, you know, off the cuff.
00:06:30.600 All of a sudden, she's pro-abortion now.
00:06:32.140 I said, this ad was definitely concocted by some campaign committee with all the genius DC consultants.
00:06:39.320 And the thing about all those genius DC consultants is a lot of them are complete dummies.
00:06:43.540 And this is just not going to play.
00:06:45.240 And so I said, Carrie, Carrie Lake campaign, you might hate me for telling you this, but I'm your friend here.
00:06:51.180 I'm giving you good advice, which is cut it out.
00:06:55.840 Don't flip on the fundamental issue that is so close to the hearts of so many conservative voters.
00:07:02.020 I mentioned this in the show.
00:07:03.880 I felt very charitably.
00:07:05.280 I gave a speech about this.
00:07:06.760 I forget which school I was speaking at.
00:07:09.560 It's a little bit of a blur with all of these schools that I spoke at this semester.
00:07:13.880 But I gave a speech and I said, I want her to win.
00:07:16.440 I'm not the enemy here.
00:07:17.560 I'm not rooting for Carrie Lake to lose.
00:07:19.160 But if the Carrie Lake campaign keeps going down this path of supporting abortion, it's going to hurt her.
00:07:26.220 She will lose in that case.
00:07:28.480 I said, how are we supposed to do it?
00:07:29.620 We should stand firm on principle, and then we should be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.
00:07:32.960 And just maybe downplay the issue a little bit in the 2024 election when it's kind of hot and focus on the issues that Biden and the Democrats are really vulnerable on, which is the border, which is the economy, which is foreign wars, which is basically everything that Joe Biden has touched.
00:07:48.300 So I'm very pleased to see that they've made this change.
00:07:52.260 I even noticed at the time, I think the Lake campaign was angry with me.
00:07:56.280 Carrie Lake's official Twitter account unfollowed me on Twitter.
00:07:59.960 Clearly, they were miffed about it.
00:08:01.740 Again, I know a lot of campaign workers control those accounts, too.
00:08:05.220 So maybe someone was angry that I called for a campaign staffer to be fired or something.
00:08:09.140 But in any case, I don't really care about any of that.
00:08:10.940 I am just glad that the campaign got the message, whatever that dumb ad was.
00:08:18.600 I'm glad they're reversing course.
00:08:20.440 They're saying, no, no, we're still pro-life.
00:08:21.860 We want the law to be enforced to protect babies in the state, but we're going to move on and we're going to focus on other issues.
00:08:27.980 But we are still pro-life.
00:08:28.940 We do not support abortion.
00:08:30.120 Great stuff.
00:08:30.940 Love that.
00:08:31.540 That's a smart move.
00:08:32.660 It's the right thing to do.
00:08:34.460 It demonstrates some coherence to one's political views.
00:08:39.280 And it will encourage your voters.
00:08:44.660 If you don't focus on it too much, it's not going to alienate the crazy pro-abortion Democrats any more than they already were.
00:08:51.080 It's certainly not going to alienate moderates and independents if you don't focus on it too much.
00:08:55.860 This is the right thing to do.
00:08:57.100 Good stuff.
00:08:57.560 Other Republican campaigns, take note and Carrie Lake.
00:09:00.700 Good job.
00:09:01.200 Glad to see that.

00:10:09.500 Now, speaking of life, really disturbing story out of an IVF clinic in Newport Beach, California.
00:10:18.400 Nine couples are suing the Ovation Fertility IVF store in Newport Beach, California,
00:10:25.460 alleging that the IVF, the baby salesman, knowingly implanted dead embryos into patients to cover up a lab mistake.
00:10:38.980 Now, there's a lot in even that first sentence of the article, right, which is, hold on, they implanted dead embryos to cover up a lab mistake.
00:10:48.940 Well, what's the mistake?
00:10:50.760 The mistake is, according to these court filings, that a lab embryologist accidentally injected the embryos, that is to say the babies, the little human beings,
00:11:01.260 with hydrogen peroxide or some other different toxic substance.
00:11:06.660 Instead of a sterile solution, they injected the babies with poison, and oopsie-daisy, they accidentally killed them instantly.
00:11:13.160 And then, to cover up this mistake, the dead babies were then implanted in the mothers who paid for this service.
00:11:21.700 The whole thing is the stuff of nightmares.
00:11:24.000 The whole thing is out of a horror movie.
00:11:26.220 Even the way that we're talking about the babies here is especially dehumanized.
00:11:31.660 It's especially ghastly.
00:11:33.240 Oh, yeah, there was a lab mistake.
00:11:35.060 The lab mistake was a worker poisoned little babies, killing them instantly.
00:11:42.540 And then implanted these dead babies in a womb, and apparently, according to the court filings, the mothers figured it out.
00:11:50.900 The lawsuit alleges that these employees were aware that the embryos were dead, and they chose to have them implanted into the would-be mothers.
00:11:58.840 Really, really awful.
00:12:00.920 The defenders of the surrogacy industry, the defenders even just of IVF on its own, will say, oh, well, this was just a mistake.
00:12:08.980 It happens, you know, it's a bad mistake, but that's any human endeavor, any commercial endeavor, any scientific endeavor.
00:12:16.700 They're going to have these kind of mistakes sometimes.
00:12:20.100 That's true.
00:12:21.020 That is one reason that we don't commoditize human beings.
00:12:25.980 Because you're right, commercial endeavors do sometimes make mistakes.
00:12:28.400 There are problems with inventory, you know, problems with labor relations.
00:12:33.680 Sometimes, you know, we just, we accidentally destroy products, or we make them defective because of our own negligence.
00:12:41.700 And, you know, oopsie-daisy, right, that's one thing if you're making widgets at the widget factory.
00:12:46.200 It's another if you've decided to make human beings at the widget factory.
00:12:49.740 It's another, it's one thing if you're shipping and selling, I don't know, you know, beach umbrellas.
00:12:56.220 It's quite another if you're shipping and selling human beings.
00:13:00.340 The problem with IVF, the reason that it is wrong.
00:13:04.740 And we all see this in the surrogacy industry, when we go out and someone rents a woman's womb and then purchases eggs from another woman.
00:13:14.740 And then two men or two women or a single mother or even a single man in some cases will go and just catalog order a baby to his precise specifications.
00:13:26.700 And then sometimes if the baby comes out wrong, the purchaser of this child will demand that the baby be killed through abortion.
00:13:33.140 That has happened, there have been court cases on this, and the babies have been killed actually as a result.
00:13:37.320 Or, you know, a defect comes out, they say we don't want the baby anymore, whatever.
00:13:42.380 The reason that this is all wrong, even down to IVF itself, not even the surrogacy industry so manifestly awful and contrary to human dignity.
00:13:55.520 We barely even have to talk about it, I think.
00:13:57.300 But even IVF, the thing that makes it wrong is not just that, practically speaking, during the process of IVF, babies are killed.
00:14:06.700 Because they create too many embryos and then they throw them in a freezer forever and ultimately they kill them.
00:14:11.340 The problem is not just that lab technicians sometimes whoopsie-daisy accidentally poison the kids and kill them instantly.
00:14:17.880 The problem with IVF is that it treats human beings as a product to be bought and sold, as a commodity.
00:14:26.080 And that is wrong.
00:14:27.120 That is always wrong and contrary to human nature.
00:14:31.760 Because human beings are not objects to be instrumentalized for our own pleasure.
00:14:36.960 Human beings are proper subjects with rights of their own.
00:14:41.780 This is human trafficking.
00:14:44.360 That's what it is.
00:14:45.660 And it's sometimes difficult to see.
00:14:47.480 It's difficult to see because we're talking about little tiny babies.
00:14:50.240 This is part of the reason why the pro-abortion crowd has so much trouble understanding actually the really simple concept that, by definition, life begins at the beginning of life.
00:15:01.260 And that human beings are always human beings.
00:15:03.640 And that as life exists, it constitutes a life.
00:15:10.120 I mean, it's a truism is what I'm saying.
00:15:12.220 But it's hard for them to see that because they say, well, but in the womb, the babies are really little.
00:15:16.040 Or, you know, they look kind of funny.
00:15:17.600 Yeah, well, that's true.
00:15:18.160 You look kind of funny when you're an old man, too.
00:15:19.720 It doesn't mean they're not human beings.
00:15:21.920 It's difficult to see it.
00:15:24.640 But that's what it is.
00:15:25.640 What is human trafficking?
00:15:27.100 Human trafficking is when you are treating people as commodities to be bought and sold and shuffled around like objects.
00:15:35.420 That's what's going on here.
00:15:36.540 This couple, probably with the best of intentions, went to the baby store, and this ghastly nightmare occurred.
00:15:46.540 They created a bunch of children.
00:15:48.780 A lab technician accidentally poisoned their children, killing them instantly, and then implanted their dead bodies into the mother.
00:15:56.320 And the mothers figured this out.
00:15:57.360 And they're naturally traumatized by this, and they're rightly suing the IVF company.
00:16:04.700 It's a baby store.
00:16:06.620 The problem here is not just that the baby store acted in a particularly vividly awful way.
00:16:15.000 The problem is that there is such a thing as a baby store.
00:16:18.700 That's wrong.
00:16:19.240 A term like baby store used to be the stuff of jokes.
00:16:23.320 It's the sort of thing that parents would joke about with their kids.
00:16:25.440 Oh, you know, if you keep it up, I'm going to return you to the baby store.
00:16:28.840 Now that's real.
00:16:29.720 Now that joke is real, and it's horrifying, and we need to acknowledge that reality.
00:16:35.160 Unfortunately, a lot of individual parents are recognizing that reality.
00:16:39.520 When a lab technician, whoopsie-daisy, accidentally mixes the wrong sperm with the wrong egg,
00:16:43.600 and parents who have never met each other now have a child, that's another real court case.
00:16:49.940 Well, darn, all right, I guess we're going to sue the company.
00:16:52.660 Okay, you're going to sue the company, and maybe this mother will get some money,
00:16:54.900 and this father will get some money.
00:16:56.000 What about the kid?
00:16:56.760 You made a human being because you decided to treat human beings like a commodity to be bought and sold
00:17:01.900 rather than as a human with proper rights as a subject.
00:17:06.300 What do you do about him?
00:17:07.660 He's a human being.
00:17:09.820 Or, you know, a baby's implanted in the wrong mother, and then everyone has to sue because,
00:17:14.940 you know, the wrong baby came out of the wrong mother, and we've got to figure out.
00:17:18.100 And after a few months, we'll all trade babies.
00:17:19.800 And, you know, what about the poor baby who's been bonding with the mother?
00:17:22.460 What about—individuals are learning this the hard way.
00:17:28.000 This has happened with a lot of issues, like the transgender issue.
00:17:31.200 In theory, a lot of people think,
00:17:33.180 well, if a man wants to slap on a skirt and call himself Sally, who am I to judge?
00:17:38.020 What do I care?
00:17:38.580 It doesn't affect me.
00:17:39.420 Okay, well, but what does that actually look like in reality?
00:17:42.200 In reality, you're taking people who are extremely mentally disturbed,
00:17:45.520 and then you're shaving off a lot of their forearm, their flesh,
00:17:48.540 and then you're using that to construct a Frankenstein-looking phallus
00:17:52.140 that you're attaching to them like some monster in a horror movie,
00:17:56.020 and then you're not treating any of their psychological conditions.
00:18:00.360 In fact, the best data set we have on this suggests
00:18:02.340 that these so-called therapies, if anything, will make the condition worse.
00:18:06.660 And then you're going to force young girls to use the bathroom
00:18:09.200 and use the changing room with big, mentally ill men,
00:18:12.580 and you're going to force society to deny sexual difference,
00:18:15.760 which is the fundamental distinction within human nature.
00:18:17.640 So, actually, it's kind of dark.
00:18:19.900 You know, it's kind of bad, actually.
00:18:23.220 Oh, and then, by the way, if parents don't go along with this absurdity,
00:18:27.500 we're going to use the power of the state to take their kids away
00:18:30.240 because we've determined as a matter of law
00:18:31.980 that men can actually become women and women can actually become men.
00:18:35.020 And the reason we did that is not because people really believe that.
00:18:37.400 Most people don't.
00:18:38.240 It's because of the attitude of moral cowards
00:18:42.220 and just people who are publicly lazy, politically lazy.
00:18:47.040 They don't want to actually engage in these civic conversations
00:18:49.980 or deal with these issues or make anyone, you know, feel bad.
00:18:53.960 So, we all just kind of pretend or turn a blind eye.
00:18:57.660 And society crumbles around us.
00:19:01.940 There are real victims to that.
00:19:04.820 Not least of all the people who have their forearms chopped off and shaved off
00:19:08.540 and go through all sorts of awful therapies and psychological traumas
00:19:14.380 and physical traumas and actually die early very often as a result of it.
00:19:17.660 All because we say, well, you know, who cares?
00:19:21.380 Doesn't affect you, do you?
00:19:22.540 Doesn't it say, kind of, you know, why not?
00:19:24.980 They want this.
00:19:26.500 The two men, they want to have a child.
00:19:30.300 They don't want to get married and do this, but they want to have a child.
00:19:32.860 Who are you to say otherwise?
00:19:33.920 The man who thinks he's a woman, he wants to, who are you to say?
00:19:36.720 Because there's such a thing as reality.
00:19:39.900 And we have reason, and we live in a society, and we have some right to the truth.
00:19:45.460 And we have some right not to be forced to live according to lies when the lies harm everyone.
00:19:50.500 Capisce?
00:19:52.180 Capite, bravissimi ragazzi.
00:19:53.680 Okay, I think so.
00:19:54.580 Speaking of changing political opinions, I touched on this story a little bit yesterday.
00:20:00.600 I don't want to totally move on.
00:20:02.160 Because we talked about the crazy student protests at Columbia.
00:20:07.360 Well, it's not just Columbia.
00:20:09.960 It's my old stomping grounds over at Yale University.
00:20:13.400 Police in riot gear showed up to Yale's campus early on Monday and arrested students who refused to clear out of one of the main parts of campus right in front of the commons.
00:20:26.580 The reason for this is they've been camping out.
00:20:30.420 They've even become a little bit violent.
00:20:31.620 There was a Yale student who runs the Yale Free Press, was investigating these pro-Palestine liberation protests, who had her eye poked with a Palestinian flag.
00:20:42.800 So it's getting pretty violent.
00:20:45.960 It takes a lot for Yale to take disciplinary action ever on students.
00:20:51.540 You pretty much can't get in trouble at Yale.
00:20:54.400 It's a very coddled place.
00:20:56.060 It certainly was when I was there.
00:20:57.020 I think it's only become more coddled in the ensuing decade.
00:21:00.160 But the cops are showing up here.
00:21:02.960 Because this is getting really weird and crazy and out of hand.
00:21:07.520 So, you know, I'm kind of a glass half full guy.
00:21:10.840 I don't really like idle complaining and whining.
00:21:14.020 I don't think it serves anything and it makes everyone kind of annoyed.
00:21:16.740 So what's the glass half full here?
00:21:18.980 You know, I actually do love my college as crazy as it is.
00:21:22.920 And, you know, I kind of, it pains me to see this once great university just collapsing into mayhem, like all of our universities.
00:21:31.180 Well, the glass half full to me is, maybe this will convince parents not to send their kids to those schools.
00:21:38.500 Maybe this will convince the donors.
00:21:42.720 You know, my dollar could be used elsewhere.
00:21:45.900 I wanted to go to Yale from the time I was a kid.
00:21:50.100 I don't know why I really, you know, it had a, you know, it was prestigious.
00:21:54.020 I knew it was politically important.
00:21:55.720 I know it was known for its arts.
00:21:57.800 I always liked the arts.
00:21:58.480 If this were 20 years ago, I would say, oh, I wonder if my kids will get into Yale.
00:22:04.920 These days, I have conversations with my wife.
00:22:06.820 I say, is there any circumstance in which we would allow our children to go to Yale?
00:22:11.780 Is there, and I'm trying to think, is there any circumstance in which I would allow?
00:22:15.380 Because in large part of craziness like this at Yale and Columbia and Harvard and Princeton and many, many other schools around the country.
00:22:23.940 Maybe the glass half full here is, as people see this, as they see the universities crumbling, as the prices go up and the kids get crazier, and the return on your investment is you send your well-adjusted kid off to these schools, you pay a quarter million dollars, and you get back, your kid hates you and hates his own country.
00:22:42.960 Doesn't even know what sexy is.
00:22:45.380 If that's not going to force the schools to change, nothing will.
00:22:49.260 There is so much more to say.

00:23:54.760 What's going on at the college level and the colleges, Columbia, NYU, and others is a disgrace?
00:24:24.760 And it's really on Biden.
00:24:27.000 He has the wrong signal, he's got the wrong tone, he's got the wrong words, he doesn't know who he's backing.
00:24:32.360 And it's a mess.
00:24:34.240 And if this were me, he'd be after me, he'd be after me so much, but to try to give him a pass.
00:24:41.140 But what's going on is a disgrace to our country.
00:24:44.960 And it's all Biden's fault and everybody knows it.
00:24:47.440 He's got no message, he's got no compassion, he doesn't know what he's doing.
00:24:52.400 He can't put two sentences together, frankly.
00:24:54.940 He is the worst president in the history of our country.
00:24:58.440 And again, what's going on is a disgrace.
00:25:00.940 This is the perfect way for Republicans, especially for the Republican presidential nominee, to respond to this issue.
00:25:11.240 Because it's a really thorny political issue.
00:25:13.940 The Gaza War, you know, it's obviously awful and a lot of people are dying and it's very, very sad.
00:25:19.300 And as an American political issue, it's especially tough for the Democrats because Republicans are mostly pro-Israel.
00:25:29.100 There are some people who are anti-Israel, but mostly 80% plus of Republicans are pro-Israel.
00:25:34.160 For the Democrats, it's a little less clear.
00:25:35.800 The donor and establishment class is pro-Israel, the base is vehemently anti-Israel.
00:25:40.120 Which means that the Gaza War is a wedge issue for the Democrats.
00:25:44.580 But there are plenty of conservatives who say, man, even if I like Israel, I don't want any money going to foreign aid for any country.
00:25:52.900 We got enough problems and we have a big national debt.
00:25:55.160 Or some will say, you know, I actually don't like the state of Israel for X, Y, Z reason.
00:25:59.460 So it's a thorny issue.
00:26:01.360 It's one of, notoriously, infamously, one of the thorniest foreign policy problems.
00:26:08.480 Probably an intractable foreign policy problem.
00:26:11.200 So Trump avoids the minefield.
00:26:13.400 Trump doesn't come in.
00:26:14.320 He says, look, we're pro-Israel, we support Israel, we don't support Hamas.
00:26:18.120 But when he's weighing in on the campus protests, he's not saying, well, they're right about this,
00:26:21.900 and actually the Israelis need to invade Rafa, and here's why the IDF did this, that.
00:26:25.700 He doesn't get involved in any of that.
00:26:27.100 He says, yeah, what's going on on campus is a disgrace, and it's all Biden's fault.
00:26:32.040 And that is a simple message, and it's a true message.
00:26:36.840 It's not even just gratuitously casting blame at one's opponent.
00:26:41.880 When Trump was president, everyone just kind of chilled on the foreign front.
00:26:46.300 Even Putin stopped invading countries.
00:26:48.340 Putin's been invading countries for every president of my lifetime since the new millennium, except for Trump.
00:26:53.260 He just kind of chilled during Trump.
00:26:55.080 Iran just kind of chilled during Trump.
00:26:57.860 Saudi Arabia and Israel made peace during Trump.
00:27:00.000 Kim Jong-un played nice with America for the first time, I don't know, since the Korean War broke out.
00:27:07.120 Trump was a good foreign policy president.
00:27:09.100 Biden is a terrible foreign policy president.
00:27:10.720 Everyone knows all this stuff is his fault.
00:27:13.340 You don't need to know anything about the Israel-Gaza war.
00:27:17.660 You don't need to know where Rafa is.
00:27:18.900 You don't need to know where Haifa is.
00:27:20.320 The current president of the United States doesn't know where either of those places are either,
00:27:23.200 and the average voter certainly doesn't have time to think about it.
00:27:25.660 It's okay.
00:27:26.080 All you need to know, this is all Biden's fault.
00:27:28.080 What's going on on campus is a disgrace.
00:27:30.240 It's all Biden's fault.
00:27:31.360 Elect me.
00:27:32.120 A beautiful, simple message.
00:27:34.700 This is a guy who knows how to communicate and who knows how to cut to the heart of political issues.
00:27:39.780 Now, speaking of major opposition to conservatives who are pushing back against the liberal establishment,
00:27:50.500 you all know by now how much I hate to say I told you so.
00:27:55.700 But when I have to, I have to.
00:27:58.080 Because a story that I broke over a year ago is now shaping up into an international lawsuit
00:28:04.140 that could fundamentally change what free speech means and how it is practiced all over the world.
00:28:09.580 I mentioned last January, January 2023, in a long Twitter thread that liberal globalists were attempting to shape the future of media
00:28:20.580 through a political technology called safety by design, which was being pushed by the World Economic Forum and the Australian government.
00:28:27.000 The Australian e-safety commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, who was a Twitter employee in the pre-Elon days, the pre-X days,
00:28:36.840 was named to lead a World Economic Forum coalition to export Australia's social media censorship regime all over the world.
00:28:43.880 For those who do not remember this particular liberal bureaucrat, she went viral for demanding a, quote, recalibration of free speech.
00:28:52.960 We are finding ourselves in a place where we're we have increasing polarization everywhere and everything feels binary when it doesn't need to be.
00:29:03.440 So I think we're going to have to think about a recalibration of a whole range of human rights that are playing out online,
00:29:09.020 you know, from freedom of speech to the freedom to, you know, to be free from online violence or the right of data protection to the right to child dignity.
00:29:20.820 Just need a little recalibration, you know, especially in this election year, we got to recalibrate your free speech, huh?
00:29:26.740 Anyway, my prediction first started to come true about three months later when Redux, which is an international publication,
00:29:35.880 published an article about an American transvestite man named Riley Dennis who was attempting to join a women's soccer league
00:29:42.800 and reportedly caused injuries during the games because he's a man and men are physically stronger than women.
00:29:47.760 That same month, the Australian government demanded that Redux delete the article, claiming that the reporting violated Australian law.
00:29:56.740 Even though Redux is not an Australian publication.
00:30:00.580 Redux has writers all over the place, including in America.
00:30:04.300 Nevertheless, the Australian government demanded censorship.
00:30:07.200 Fast forward to this past February, an anti-transgenderism advocate named Billboard Chris
00:30:11.740 tweeted about the World Health Organization's decision to hire a lady trans activist who calls herself Teddy Cook
00:30:17.960 to draft the WHO's policy on trans care.
00:30:21.680 Now, Ms. Cook has reportedly posted some depraved content, let's say.
00:30:27.180 I'll be diplomatic about it, to social media, including bestiality, okay?
00:30:32.920 Including, like, people and animals.
00:30:35.740 This seems relevant that maybe one of the people responsible for crafting global policy on sexual health
00:30:43.700 might herself be a psychosexual deviant.
00:30:47.180 Once again, the Australian government ordered that this reporting be removed from X
00:30:52.120 or else the platform, thanks to Chris, would face a fine of roughly half a million U.S. dollars.
00:30:59.540 Fast forward to this month.
00:31:00.940 The prolific tweeter Ian Miles Chong posted on X about the multiple mass stabbings in Australia.
00:31:07.740 You remember, we covered it on the show.
00:31:09.140 At a mall and then at a church.
00:31:11.180 Obviously, this is newsworthy.
00:31:12.360 There was this horrific attack against Christians, including a bishop of an Eastern Christian sect.
00:31:18.220 A day later, the e-safety commissioner demanded that all videos and photos of the mall stabbing
00:31:23.840 be deleted from Ian's account.
00:31:26.460 Then X was hit broadly on the church stabbing.
00:31:29.800 We can't have any reporting about this kind of violence, especially violence against Christians
00:31:35.320 going viral on social media.
00:31:37.200 No, no, no.
00:31:38.300 That doesn't fit the liberal narrative.
00:31:39.780 It's got to go.
00:31:40.340 Now, the Australian globalists were not even satisfied that the Post be censored in Australia.
00:31:48.440 The global government affairs account for X reported a few days later that Australia had
00:31:53.800 demanded that X censor the Posts globally or else face a daily fine of roughly half a million U.S. dollars.
00:32:02.960 Now, happily, that demand was too much for Elon Musk, whose spokesman, who argued that Australian
00:32:11.840 globalists had no right to censor content globally, came out swinging.
00:32:17.420 Musk put it himself, quote,
00:32:18.640 Our concern is that if any country is allowed to censor content for all countries, which
00:32:24.420 is what the Australian e-safety commissar is demanding, then what is to stop any country
00:32:28.940 from controlling the entire Internet?
00:32:31.320 Huh?
00:32:31.460 So where do things stand now?
00:32:35.060 Well, one Australian senator is calling for Elon Musk to be imprisoned.
00:32:40.340 Elon Musk has no social conscience or conscience whatsoever.
00:32:43.420 I don't know.
00:32:43.880 Whatever Elon Musk is on, it says that that's OK to continue to air that is absolutely disgusting
00:32:49.540 behavior.
00:32:50.560 And quite frankly, the bloke should be jailed.
00:32:52.440 And the sooner that we can bring rules in or do something about this sort of this sort
00:32:57.540 of game playing with our social media, the better off we're going to be.
00:33:00.700 But quite frankly, the power that that man has because of that platform that he's on,
00:33:05.500 it's got to stop.
00:33:06.620 It has absolutely got to stop.
00:33:09.260 That power that that man has.
00:33:11.540 I want that power.
00:33:12.500 Why does he have that power?
00:33:13.180 I want to have that power.
00:33:14.380 Additionally, the Australian prime minister is vowing to make social media companies censor
00:33:18.820 more content.
00:33:19.480 And the Australian people are downloading X like never before.
00:33:23.500 Actually, the way it's turned out is the Australians are making this the top downloaded
00:33:26.960 news app in the country, much to the chagrin of their government, I'm sure.
00:33:30.760 The issue will have to be resolved in some court or another.
00:33:35.160 Why this fight seems to be centered around X is clear enough.
00:33:39.300 It does not seem like YouTube, for instance, is being asked to delete this kind of content.
00:33:43.740 It doesn't seem like the more liberal social media platforms are being targeted in this
00:33:48.820 way.
00:33:50.060 Elon, in particular, is being singled out here.
00:33:53.880 One suspects it might be because he's the only big tech billionaire standing up against
00:33:58.580 the left's agenda.
00:34:00.080 And so the fate of global speech stands to be decided in a fight between an American lady
00:34:05.540 who moved to Australia to censor the internet and a South African man who moved to America
00:34:11.040 who is telling her that she can't.
00:34:15.400 Only going to heat up from here, I am sure.
00:34:19.880 Now, speaking of trans issues, this is a story I meant to get to last week.
00:34:23.360 And I don't want to let it go because there's been too much letting it go going on with the
00:34:28.840 story generally.
00:34:29.480 You remember the shooting at Covenant School when a trans-identifying shooter goes in and
00:34:35.620 murders a bunch of Christian kids.
00:34:38.160 And the person left a manifesto.
00:34:41.120 And we just haven't gotten the manifesto.
00:34:42.920 Usually, when there's a mass shooting, a mass stabbing, even any, we get that manifesto in
00:34:48.540 two seconds, especially if it's a white guy, especially if the guy can be called right-wing
00:34:52.140 at all.
00:34:53.420 In this case, seems pretty clear we're not talking about a right-wing white Christian
00:34:58.820 male.
00:34:59.960 We don't get the manifesto.
00:35:02.420 So Laura Fox, who's an attorney for the city of Nashville, has just said the city's police
00:35:08.640 are still investigating the shooting.
00:35:11.000 They're probing whether this trans-identifying killer had any accomplices.
00:35:14.800 And so they're hoping to wrap up their investigation by July 1st.
00:35:19.200 This investigation has been going on now for over a year.
00:35:22.880 It's still going to be going on for a few months.
00:35:25.940 And this spokesman says the police are prepared to release most of the investigative file, excluding
00:35:31.400 some details about school security and reasonable detractions, extractions.
00:35:39.700 Also, I forget exactly what word I'm looking for, but you get the point.
00:35:42.520 Reasonable did actions.
00:35:43.900 Did, I don't know, some kind of action.
00:35:45.860 When questioned, the spokesman said that she thinks the killer's journal, which was found
00:35:51.480 in the car that she left at school, would also be able to be released to the public.
00:35:57.480 Okay, at least we have a date.
00:35:59.420 That's good.
00:35:59.920 But it's a date that's not binding.
00:36:00.920 She says, yeah, I hope by July 1st.
00:36:03.460 I'm hoping that's, but, you know, we'll see.
00:36:07.160 And then, you know, probably after that, we'll be able to get the info.
00:36:10.300 Okay, well, I'll look forward to July 1st.
00:36:12.500 And we'll cover it again on July 1st because it's very easy to just push these things off
00:36:19.240 and off and off until people forget.
00:36:20.680 That's what they're all hoping for here.
00:36:23.160 I think what the libs want is for this to become the next Las Vegas shooting.
00:36:28.740 Remember that Las Vegas shooting where the gunman opened up from the hotel and killed
00:36:33.060 a ton of people at that concert?
00:36:34.620 And then we just never really heard anything about it again.
00:36:38.760 We heard it was a lone gunman, even though there were witnesses who said it sounded like
00:36:41.980 there were multiple people.
00:36:42.880 And there's just no way that this one guy could have gotten all these guns up there.
00:36:45.800 Nothing about this thing added up.
00:36:47.980 And then, boop, bye.
00:36:48.740 See you later.
00:36:49.720 Nope, no more.
00:36:50.380 This isn't a story anymore.
00:36:51.620 I think that's exactly what they want to do with the trans killer in Nashville.
00:36:55.560 And the only way that they won't be able to get away with that is if we just keep asking
00:37:00.880 them about it.
00:37:01.600 What they are counting on is that we will all forget.
00:37:04.380 I, for one, will not forget.
00:37:05.460 I suspect you will not either.

00:37:46.080 My favorite comment yesterday is from RichCBSBWB3554, who says, personally, I would rather work four
00:37:55.040 10-12-hour shifts than work five 8-10-hour days.
00:37:59.080 Totally, totally.
00:38:00.420 I think that's true for most people.
00:38:02.440 And a lot of people work more than an 8- or 10-hour shift, even though they're doing five
00:38:07.020 days a week.
00:38:08.240 Because it's tough out there, and the Biden economy is awful, and people have to make ends
00:38:11.120 meet.
00:38:11.380 So this is in response, I assume, to the story on the millennials advocating for a four-day
00:38:16.960 work week.
00:38:18.100 And that's why my answer is not just the total boomer Gen X answer.
00:38:22.020 You know, you need to be working all the time, clocking in, clocking out nine to five,
00:38:25.120 five days a week, maybe a week or two of vacation a year.
00:38:28.140 And that's not my answer.
00:38:29.200 I'm totally open, in principle, to a four-day work week.
00:38:32.700 And maybe it does make workers more productive, and maybe people do prefer it.
00:38:36.200 And maybe all those things are true.
00:38:37.480 I'm a little skeptical, but maybe it's all true.
00:38:39.800 The only question is, what are people going to do with that time?
00:38:44.080 The reason to do that, for the good of individuals and for the common good of society, is if people
00:38:49.380 are going to contribute to culture.
00:38:52.780 If people know how to make sense of leisure.
00:38:54.600 If we know how to make sense of our freedom.
00:38:56.940 In the early American Republic, people would, they didn't have a three-day weekend, but
00:39:01.500 if they did, they would have known what to do with it.
00:39:05.520 Because the kinds of virtues that constitute what we now call the liberal arts, you know,
00:39:13.620 were much more prevalent.
00:39:15.520 They were much more widely and deeply inculcated in those earlier days of our Republic.
00:39:20.820 Now we don't really know what to do with it.
00:39:23.420 And so, a three-day weekend, if that just means people are going to smoke more pot and
00:39:27.540 look at more porn and play more video games or something, that's actually probably not
00:39:30.560 good for anybody.
00:39:31.140 It's not good for the country.
00:39:31.860 It's not good for individuals.
00:39:32.740 So, we have to figure out, can we still make sense of our freedom or not?
00:39:38.920 Speaking of investigations, the United States is imposing sanctions on an IDF unit, according
00:39:44.240 to reports, this is not really official, but the U.S. is expected to announce sanctions
00:39:49.320 against the IDF's Netza Yehuda Battalion for alleged human rights abuses in the West Bank.
00:39:57.080 This is significant because this would be the first time that the U.S. has imposed sanctions
00:40:00.440 on an Israeli military unit and would see a ban on the battalion receiving any kind of
00:40:05.700 U.S. military assistance.
00:40:06.820 Now, again, of course, money is fungible.
00:40:09.400 So, if we give a lot of money to Israel, we just gave another, you know, whatever it
00:40:12.620 was, $17 billion or something, and we fund 6.5% of the Israeli military.
00:40:17.040 So, to say, okay, but this one battalion isn't getting any is kind of silly, but it does make
00:40:22.680 the point that the United States is going to object to some actions undertaken even by
00:40:27.260 our allies.
00:40:29.280 This gets to something we were talking about earlier in the week, and I think it helps to
00:40:32.500 resolve a little bit of the conflict between, you know, there's one group of people,
00:40:36.840 we'll call them the liberal globalist party of America, which says, we need to just go
00:40:41.520 everywhere in the world and just bomb everybody into smithereens and, you know, just give money
00:40:45.900 willy-nilly, no strings attached, you know, please take more of our tax base.
00:40:50.960 There's that side of things.
00:40:52.540 And then there are people who I think are actually kind of equally naive about politics
00:40:57.620 who say, America, we need to just stop giving money to anyone at all.
00:41:01.780 We need to stop being involved in anything overseas.
00:41:03.700 We need to recognize we're a yeoman republic.
00:41:06.080 We need to remember the words of Thomas Jefferson, go back to our plows, and I don't just focus
00:41:11.600 on the homeland.
00:41:14.640 That's not going to happen.
00:41:16.140 It might seem nice.
00:41:17.380 Maybe it's a nice ideal that you have.
00:41:19.180 It's not going to happen because we're not a yeoman republic.
00:41:22.040 We're not even really a nation state.
00:41:23.600 We're a global empire.
00:41:24.760 When I first realized that America was not just a nation state and that lots of the rules
00:41:30.120 about nation states and nationalism even don't really apply to us is when I first learned
00:41:34.580 that America has a military installation called AFRICOM, African Command.
00:41:40.880 So, you know, I don't think yeoman republics have things called AFRICOM.
00:41:45.160 You know what does?
00:41:46.940 Global empires do when we are the hegemon of the entire world.
00:41:52.020 So whether you like it or not, we're going to be involved overseas.
00:41:55.660 Every great nation in all of history has been involved in foreign affairs, has had interests
00:42:01.820 outside of its own borders, and it's just going to happen.
00:42:04.520 So I would prefer that we not do it in the way that the crazy liberal globalists who want
00:42:08.180 to just bomb everything to smithereens and just give our money away willy-nilly, I'd prefer
00:42:11.300 we not do it in their way.
00:42:13.020 But then what are we supposed to do?
00:42:14.300 So actually, take the specific action of the specific battalion of the specific nation
00:42:20.780 of Israel out of it for a second.
00:42:22.200 In principle here, I think this kind of thing is quite good, which is put strings on your
00:42:29.260 money.
00:42:29.600 If you're going to give your money to people overseas, including and especially to your
00:42:33.760 allies, make sure that money is used to make them do what we want them to do.
00:42:38.580 So you need to, if the point is we're giving money to these people because they're acting
00:42:44.840 as our vassal states for our vast global empire, okay, well, make sure they're not undercutting
00:42:48.800 our position.
00:42:50.020 Make sure we're doing what we want them to do, not the other way around.
00:42:54.560 We don't want to put the cart before the horse or have the tail wag the dog.
00:42:57.480 So how do you do that?
00:42:58.480 You've got to put requirements on the money that you give to people.
00:43:03.100 Now, in this case, in the case of this random IDF battalion, this is really more symbolic
00:43:08.020 than anything.
00:43:08.700 It's just one unit of the IDF.
00:43:10.360 But in principle, it establishes an important principle.
00:43:14.780 I think one way to reconcile the real bomb them all to smithereens crowd and the don't
00:43:20.580 even read the international newspapers crowd is to say, make all foreign aid contingent on
00:43:29.140 the recipients doing what we want.
00:43:31.680 Now, speaking of wars overseas that we are involved in and funding, the Ukraine war wages
00:43:38.700 on, I guess, the U.S. grand strategy at this point is just fund the Ukrainians to kill as
00:43:44.840 many Russians as possible to weaken Russia because we view Russia as a geopolitical adversary.
00:43:50.560 And a lot of Ukrainians are going to die as that happens.
00:43:53.400 But, you know, whatever.
00:43:55.400 We just want to make sure that Russians keep getting killed too.
00:43:57.560 So that's that.
00:43:59.180 That's basically the beginning and end of the grand strategy over there.
00:44:03.920 What does the U.S.
00:44:04.680 Congress think about this?
00:44:06.320 The Congress, supposedly a Republican Congress, just voted to give more money to Ukraine.
00:44:10.680 But some members of Congress did not, including the Ukraine-born U.S.
00:44:16.460 representative, Victoria Sparts, who I've been very impressed by.
00:44:20.460 I think she's actually been a rather impressive congressman.
00:44:24.360 And Sparts, despite having been born in Ukraine, despite obviously having some affection for her
00:44:30.320 homeland, she voted no on Ukraine aid.
00:44:34.560 A week ago, her hometown, Chernihiv, I'm probably mispronouncing that, was bombarded by Russia.
00:44:43.100 Dozens of civilians in her hometown were slaughtered by the Russians.
00:44:47.640 And still, she voted no.
00:44:51.360 Why?
00:44:53.100 Well, Congress Lady Sparts said, we have to pick our hills to die on and take them.
00:44:58.200 Our southern border, our southern border here in America, is that hill.
00:45:01.960 Well, as I said many times, if Speaker Johnson's package does not include border security,
00:45:06.180 I will not support that rule.
00:45:08.040 I will also not support sending cash to the Ukrainian government, only lethal aid.
00:45:12.300 This woman is a model of immigration.
00:45:15.960 If we reform our immigration regime to just let in a bunch of Victoria Sparts, I'm for it.
00:45:23.660 Okay?
00:45:24.000 I'm not one of these people who says we can't let in a single immigrant ever again.
00:45:26.840 That also is just never going to happen.
00:45:28.540 But we need to let in immigrants like Victoria Sparts.
00:45:31.740 Who takes her oath of allegiance to America very, very seriously.
00:45:36.440 And who takes her election as a United States congressman.
00:45:40.480 You know, this is a U.S. House representative, controls the purse.
00:45:42.660 No one has any fiscal discipline in D.C.
00:45:44.480 She obviously takes that very, very seriously.
00:45:46.960 She takes her role in U.S. grand strategy very seriously.
00:45:51.400 This is just perfect.
00:45:53.100 Says we got to pick our hills to die on.
00:45:54.480 We got to pick our big policy priorities.
00:45:57.020 Mine is the southern border.
00:45:58.280 Of course, because if a nation doesn't have borders, it's not a nation.
00:46:03.640 The borders are what delineate a nation and distinguish it from other nations.
00:46:07.920 She goes, that's a big one.
00:46:08.800 So if this package doesn't include border security, I'm not voting for it.
00:46:11.960 And also, she doesn't even just say, I don't want to give any money to Ukraine, period.
00:46:15.560 And we're just going to focus on America and never focus on foreign affairs.
00:46:18.420 She doesn't say that.
00:46:19.320 But even after her hometown is bombarded by Russians, she says, I ain't giving money to
00:46:25.760 the corrupt Ukraine government.
00:46:27.160 That Ukraine government is very corrupt.
00:46:29.240 It's one of the most notoriously corrupt governments in the world, long before this recent flare
00:46:33.880 up with Russia started.
00:46:35.040 So she says, I like Ukraine.
00:46:37.820 Maybe I'd like to help Ukraine.
00:46:39.360 But we should be giving them bullets if we're going to give them anything.
00:46:42.320 Don't be given any cash payments to those crook oligarchs in Ukraine, the guys who got
00:46:47.780 caught doing dodgy deals with Joe Biden.
00:46:51.000 Remember when Joe Biden was threatening to withhold urgent military aid to Ukraine if
00:46:56.100 Ukraine didn't stop looking into the company that his son was getting crook payments from?
00:47:00.240 You remember that?
00:47:00.960 And he bragged about it at the Council on Foreign Relations.
00:47:03.120 This is a very corrupt place.
00:47:05.840 Victoria Sparks saying, if you can't meet these basic demands, protect the southern border
00:47:10.740 and don't just burn American money, just give it away to some of the biggest crooks on
00:47:15.960 earth, then I'm out.
00:47:17.540 I'm out.
00:47:18.220 Even if that hurts my country of origin, I'm an American now.
00:47:23.340 God bless the USA.
00:47:24.320 Love that great stuff from Victoria Sparks.
00:47:29.180 Speaking of America in the world, I'm just going to tease you.
00:47:32.700 I'm going to give you, you know, I'm a little bit of a tease, right?
00:47:34.660 Now, there's a new poll out on what Americans think of the southern border.
00:47:41.680 What percent of Americans do you think approve of the current state of our southern border?
00:47:47.060 What percent of Americans do you think believe the U.S. has control of its southern border?
00:47:51.060 It's an election here.
00:47:51.800 You might say, I don't know, 50-50.
00:47:53.600 Even 50-50 wouldn't be great for Biden.
00:47:55.360 The real number, just 20%.
00:48:00.300 20% brutal news for Biden.
00:48:03.520 We will get into that, I suppose, tomorrow.
00:48:05.280 Because now, we have a very important member bloc.
00:48:08.300 We're talking about this globalist censorship regime really focusing on X right now in the
00:48:13.800 lead up to 2024.
00:48:14.980 Well, we have Chris Elston on Billboard Chris.
00:48:17.620 We'll be on to discuss the attempted censorship of him specifically and where everything stands.
