Ep. 1525 - Joe Biden Claims To Be Black Woman
Summary
Joe Biden is trying to shed his image as an old white man and become a black woman. Is it possible for a woman to be both a man and a woman? And if so, why not a proud nubian queen?
Transcript

Joe Biden has been a lot of things over the years. He's been a moderate. He's been a radical.
00:00:04.800
He's been a hawk. He's been a dove. And now, as he faces mounting pressure to step down as his
00:00:11.280
party's 2024 presidential nominee, Biden is attempting yet another reboot, this time shedding
00:00:17.460
his image as an old white man and becoming instead a black woman. By the way, I'm proud to be, as I
00:00:24.500
said, the first vice president, the first black woman to serve with the black president. I'm proud
00:00:31.680
to be the first black woman in the Supreme Court. There's just so much that we can do because
00:00:37.500
together, there's nothing. Look, this is the United States of America.
00:00:42.400
Good for him. It's Biden's party that told us that a person can be anything he wants to be.
00:00:48.760
And if a dude can be a chick, I see no reason that white as snow Joe Biden can't be a proud
00:00:53.700
Nubian queen, darker than the blackest obsidian. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles
00:00:58.580
Show. Welcome back to the show. The New York Times is attacking Christians and telling Christians to
00:01:22.500
get out of American politics. Stop the presses. I know you've never heard that before. Actually,
00:01:27.780
there's a lot to say about the press today. The press really exposing themselves as having no
00:01:34.240
credibility, as having very little honesty in a way that I haven't seen probably in about eight years
00:01:41.060
since Trump started his campaign. We'll get to that in a moment. First, though, it's Sicilian summer.
00:01:47.660
Okay, a lot of everyone's trying to claim the summer. It's this kind of summer. It's that kind of
00:01:50.960
summer. We all know what it is. It's Sicilian summer. That's why we have this candle. And it's
00:01:54.900
back. It's sold out immediately because it has citrusy and delightful. It smells like a nice,
00:02:01.460
lovely little glass of limoncello. Well, it's back in stock. You go to thecandleclub.com.
00:02:08.740
Thecandleclub.com. Not candleclub.com. I think maybe you can go to the DW store, but go to
00:02:13.540

00:02:19.480

00:03:47.860
Biden's first week as a black woman is not going very well. Biden went viral over the weekend for
00:03:54.340
a clip at some rally. He's given some rally to try to recover from that disastrous debate.
00:03:58.700
And he makes a glaring omission in his glad handing. You see Biden, he's taking selfies with
00:04:07.540
people. There's a nice big white couple. Here's a nice big white guy with a mustache. Then there's
00:04:12.360
a black woman who smiles. Hide you. Oh, nope. He's passing right over her. Yeah, she's kind of looking.
00:04:20.040
Hmm. Nope. She's looking to the side. Wait, why did he pass over me? Just talk to that white lady.
00:04:25.640
Now he's just talking. Oh, there's another white lady. Huh? Here I am. Well, there goes my smile.
00:04:31.440
I should smile a little bit again, but he's not, he's not even looking at her. No, no.
00:04:37.800
Now Joe Biden does not recognize his fellow strong black woman. He just moves on to the white people.
00:04:44.200
And then this poor black lady, she's like, okay, all right. Well, anyway, bye. Should I vote for Trump?
00:04:49.880
I don't know. Maybe I should vote for Trump. Why do I mention it? Because Joe Biden's a horrible,
00:04:53.780
terrible racist. I don't know. Maybe that's kind of the low level, I think, take on Biden. I don't
00:05:00.340
know. I don't think it's really that. I don't think Biden hates black people or anything like
00:05:04.840
that. I just think he's losing his political touch. That's what I think. And in a way, that's
00:05:10.760
more devastating. You're going to hear all these conservatives look at that clip and say, see,
00:05:15.280
Biden's a racist, just like his old friend, the exalted Cyclops of the Ku Klux Klan, Senator
00:05:21.800
Robert Byrd, or those Democrats, the party, the KKK, whatever. Yeah. Okay, fine. I don't
00:05:27.340
think Biden hates black people. I think Biden doesn't really believe anything. And the one
00:05:32.560
skill he's had in life is he's really good at shaking hands and slapping backs and smiling
00:05:36.360
at people and kissing babies. He is a talented politician. That's how he got elected to the
00:05:41.520
Senate when he was too young constitutionally, even to serve in the Senate. And he's been in
00:05:46.640
politics for 50 years now, national politics, over 50 years. And the problem for Biden is in
00:05:53.660
order to be a politician, I said this after the debate, the main skill you have to have is to be
00:05:59.060
able to talk and Biden can no longer talk. That's what's so devastating. The other skills you need
00:06:05.640
to have, which are related to talking are get a smile for pictures and slap people on the back and
00:06:09.980
make them feel good and make sure, especially if you're a liberal politician, that you play all your
00:06:14.560
identity politics cards exactly right. You know, a woman outranks a man and a black woman outranks a
00:06:20.400
black man and certainly a white man and a homosexual outranks a heterosexual. And you got to keep that
00:06:24.860
in mind. And he doesn't, he doesn't, he's lost his touch. He's lost his political skill. And now he is
00:06:30.340
left truly with nothing, which is why the Democrat establishment is trying to run him out. So Biden to
00:06:36.340
stop the bleeding on his campaign decides that he's going to sit down for an interview. And who's he
00:06:41.260
choose to sit down with? George Stephanopoulos on ABC. George Stephanopoulos is not just a liberal
00:06:49.680
journalist. That would be bad enough. Okay, we got to help the campaign. I'm going to sit down with a
00:06:54.040
friendly journalist. George Stephanopoulos was Bill Clinton's White House communications director.
00:06:59.100
Okay, George Stephanopoulos was, for the part of his career that made him famous,
00:07:05.260
an actual propagandist for establishment Democrat politicians like Joe Biden. This is the safest
00:07:13.600
possible interview that Joe Biden can go on. And he still blew it. Stephanopoulos pushed him,
00:07:22.980
said, are you going to step down? First, Joe Biden comes out defiant, says no.
00:07:28.780
If you can be convinced that you cannot defeat Donald Trump, will you stand down?
00:07:36.920
Well, the Lord Almighty comes out and tells me that I might do that.
00:07:41.060
Well, I mean, on a more practical level, Washington Post just reported in the last hour
00:07:45.680
that Senator Mark Warner is assembling a group of senators together to try and convince you to
00:07:50.860
stand down because they don't think you can win. Well, Mark is a good man. We've never had that.
00:07:56.400
He also tried to get the nomination, too. Mark's not. Mark and I have a different perspective.
00:08:02.820
I respect him. And if Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries and Nancy Pelosi come down and say,
00:08:10.180
we're worried that if you stay in the race, we're going to lose the House and the Senate,
00:08:14.660
how will you respond? I go into detail with them. I've spoken to all of them in detail,
00:08:20.240
including Jim Clyburn, every one of them. They all said I should stay in the race.
00:08:25.140
So Biden's team is doing everything to make him look young and vigorous. They have colored him
00:08:32.000
orange. They've actually done the thing to him that they make fun of Donald Trump for doing to
00:08:36.140
himself, which is they've put a bronzer on him that makes him look orange. Next, they're going to put a
00:08:40.980
big blonde wig on him and a big fat red power tie and, I don't know, give him a golf resort or
00:08:45.580
something. They're trying to make him look a little bit like Trump. Then he's not wearing a tie. He's
00:08:49.740
wearing a blue striped shirt, and he's got the blue striped shirt unbuttoned, not quite to his navel,
00:08:54.440
like he's, I don't know, he's about to get on a yacht off the coast of Sorrento or something.
00:08:58.340
They're just trying to make him look young and vibrant. But his speech, the quality of his voice,
00:09:04.740
the slowness with which he speaks, the raspiness, the fragility, the obvious fragility through his
00:09:13.200
fame is giving him away. You can put all the bronzer on in the world. You can dress him up like he's
00:09:18.120
Leonardo DiCaprio. It's not going to do anything. It's clear that he's frail and losing it. You see
00:09:23.520
here, he says, I've spoken to them. That's the first one. No, don't worry. I've spoken to them
00:09:31.980
at length. I've spoken to them. Is that the participle? To speak? I don't think so. His
00:09:38.120
inability to talk gives him away. Then he makes the bigger gaffe of the interview, which is when
00:09:47.340
Stephanopoulos says, hey, man, okay, you want to stay in it. I get it, whatever. But
00:09:50.880
what if Trump wins? What if Trump wins because you're so old and senile? What are you going to
00:09:57.140
say after that happens? Mr. President, I've never seen a president's 36% approval get reelected?
00:10:03.100
Well, I don't believe that's my approval. That's not what our polls show.
00:10:07.060
And if you stay in and Trump is elected and everything you're warning about comes to pass,
00:10:12.400
how will you feel in January? I feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the goodest job as I know
00:10:19.360
I can do. That's what this is about. That's what this is about, man. I got to do the goodest job.
00:10:24.920
Where's my sticker? Can I have a nap now, please? Come on, Jack, I'm tired.
00:10:30.140
The word he was looking for is best. That is the superlative form of good. It's good,
00:10:37.000
better, and best. But he did goodest because he can't use words anymore. He was able to use words
00:10:44.540
in his young political career. He allegedly had some childhood stutter. It went away for 50 years
00:10:50.480
in his political career. Then it came back, but it didn't really come back. It's just senility.
00:10:54.520
That's it. If Biden can't make it through a George Stephanopoulos interview,
00:11:01.260
he can't make it through anything. This is the softest. I don't mean any disrespect to
00:11:07.580
Stephanopoulos. He pushed him here where he should have pushed him on behalf of the Democrat party,
00:11:11.720
which is trying to throw Biden out right now. But he pushed him enough. But still,
00:11:14.920
he's George Stephanopoulos, okay? He's Clinton's comms guy. He gives softball politicians to,
00:11:19.600
softball interviews, rather, to Democrat politicians, and Biden flubbed it. He didn't
00:11:25.120
hurt himself all that much in the sense that he'd already so perhaps mortally wounded himself during
00:11:31.260
that debate with Trump that there was really no way to injure himself any further. But he didn't
00:11:36.520
help himself. The point of the Stephanopoulos interview was to help Biden stop the bleeding,
00:11:41.020
turn the campaign around. It didn't happen. The point of the debate, the reason he proposed the
00:11:44.180
debate to Trump was to turn his numbers around, stop the bleeding of his support, and stop Donald
00:11:51.460
Trump's rise. Neither of those things worked. So now the Democrats have two clear examples just
00:11:57.660
from the past few weeks. They need to get this guy out, and he doesn't want to go. There's so much
00:12:02.000
more to say. First, though, go to number three, dayblinds.com slash Knowles. There is a better way to

00:13:25.300
credit for how they're now asking questions about Joe Biden. There are some Republicans,
00:13:29.900
they're going to say, wow, you know, even the New York Times, even the Washington Post are going after
00:13:34.380
Biden. Wow, maybe they're fair after all. They're not. Don't do that. You do not,
00:13:39.300
under any circumstances, have to give the establishment media credit for anything.
00:13:45.560
Because now they're all turning on Biden because they're afraid that the cat's out of the bag and
00:13:49.360
everyone realizes that the guy's brain is applesauce and he's not going to be able to beat
00:13:52.240
Trump in November. So they're trying hurriedly to replace him before their convention in August and,
00:13:57.400
you know, even before the deadline, which is coming up in a week or two, to get a nominee so
00:14:02.400
that he can appear on all the ballots in all 50 states. I want to remind you that all these
00:14:07.940
intrepid journalists, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Joe Scarborough, Joe Scarborough
00:14:12.300
now raising all sorts of questions about Biden's fitness. Four months ago, this, four months ago,
00:14:17.840
this is what Joe Scarborough had to say about Joe Biden.
00:14:20.000
But comparing that guy's mental state, I've said it for years now, he's cogent.
00:14:27.760
But I undersold him when I said he was cogent. He's far beyond cogent. In fact, I think he's better
00:14:35.100
than he's ever been intellectually, analytically, because he's been around for 50 years.
00:14:43.680
And, you know, I don't know if people know this or not. Biden used to be a hothead.
00:14:50.060
Sometimes that Irishman would get in front of the reasoning. Sometimes he would say things he
00:14:55.040
didn't want to say. This is and I don't really you know what? I don't really start your tape right
00:15:02.820
now because I'm about to tell you the truth and F you if you can't handle the truth.
00:15:08.060
This version of Biden, intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever.
00:15:18.260
Not a close second. And I've known him for years. The Brzezinski's have known him for 50 years.
00:15:27.820
It wasn't the truth. I love how Joe Scarborough sets this up. He says this thing. Then he says,
00:15:34.980
hey, start your tape right now because I'm going to tell you the truth. Meaning everything I've been
00:15:39.880
telling you is a lie. But now I'm going to tell you the truth. And then, of course, he just repeats
00:15:44.540
the thing he said previously. I've known Biden for years. My third wife, her family's known Biden for
00:15:51.980
50 years, his entire political career. This is the best Biden has ever been intellectually and
00:15:59.840
analytically. So is Joe Scarborough, I don't mean just to pick on Joe Scarborough,
00:16:05.840
are the liberal media liars or simply incompetent and oblivious?
00:16:15.540
Some are one, some are the other, some are a little bit of both. Either way,
00:16:19.800
no credibility whatsoever. They have no credibility at all. Joe Scarborough in that clip
00:16:28.220
is either lying or he doesn't know anything. The left-wing media lying or they don't know
00:16:34.860
anything. Either way, no reason to believe them. They're now freaking out because unfortunately for
00:16:40.500
them, they thought they were going to be able to rig the presidential debate and rig the rules in a
00:16:45.960
way that would harm Trump and then put it on a left-wing cable network. And so you wouldn't have
00:16:50.280
to worry about an audience or the committee on presidential debates or this, that, or the other
00:16:53.620
thing. They thought they had it all in the bag and it actually ended up hurting Biden.
00:16:57.300
They thought, for instance, that not having a studio audience in for that debate would help
00:17:04.140
Biden and hurt Trump. Because Trump, Trump plays to the big crowds and they thought, okay, if we get
00:17:08.400
all the crowds and the cheering out of there, Biden will do better. The opposite happened. Biden plays
00:17:13.840
off of the energy of people. It totally killed him. They thought the commercial breaks would help
00:17:18.160
them. They thought it being on CNN would help them. They thought this, that, and the other thing didn't
00:17:20.880
work. That's why they're freaking out right now. Now, speaking of our extremely dishonest media,
00:17:25.680
House Democrats are bringing out the big guns to kill a GOP bill requiring proof of citizenship to
00:17:35.020
vote in federal elections. This, according to Axios. Axios, a center-left publication. Scoop!
00:17:41.640
Scoop! House Dem leadership bringing out the big guns against this Republican bill.
00:17:46.860
Now, why are they doing that? The liberals had told us that illegal aliens never vote. This is
00:17:54.980
not a worry at all. So if they really believed that, and then the Republicans came out and said,
00:18:01.220
there is a bill that's going to ban illegals from voting. If the Democrats really believed what they
00:18:06.160
were saying, you would imagine that they might say, okay, well, no big deal. It's not going to change
00:18:09.100
anything because the illegals aren't voting. But that's not what they're doing. The House Democratic
00:18:12.020
leadership is going to bring out the big guns. They're going to kill this bill as fast as they
00:18:15.900
can because it won't change anything at all, right? I don't think so. This is like when the
00:18:22.700
Democrats were so eager to kill Trump's wall, his big, beautiful wall. They campaigned. They said,
00:18:29.260
walls don't work. Walls don't work. Walls don't work. And that is why we're going to do everything
00:18:33.200
we can to stop Trump from building a wall. Well, I thought the walls don't work. Let him build the
00:18:37.340
biggest wall in the world. It's not going to affect your policy, right? If what you're saying is true.
00:18:40.860
Let the Republicans pass this bill. It's not going to affect a single vote for a Democrat
00:18:44.720
if what you're saying is true. DEI is not being taught in schools. Remember that one?
00:18:50.700
Republicans go after DEI, critical race theory in schools. The Democrats say this is outrageous,
00:18:57.500
critical race theory, and all the DEI-related ideologies. They are not being taught in schools.
00:19:01.980
And that is why we're going to fight tooth and nail to stop Republicans from banning it in schools.
00:19:06.100
They're not transing your kids. What are you taught? You crazy Republicans,
00:19:10.080
you're passing all sorts of rules to stop liberals from transing your kids. We're not doing that.
00:19:16.620
And that's why we're going to fight those laws tooth and nail. It's very, very important
00:19:19.700
that children have access to the life-saving transgender transitions that we are not presenting
00:19:25.600
to them. Wait, what? What is it? Which, which is it? I want to be as fair as I possibly can to the
00:19:34.700
libs. I guess they could still try to say with a straight face that no, illegal aliens are not
00:19:40.960
voting. This has nothing to do with illegal aliens voting. But you see, if you require proof of
00:19:46.260
citizenship, then other groups who support us are not going to be able to vote because they don't
00:19:51.320
have proof of citizenship. Their argument, if they are going to keep a straight face and say illegal
00:19:56.700
aliens are not voting, then their argument is our voters are so stupid and disorganized and
00:20:00.940
incompetent that they can't even prove that they're Americans when they go to vote.
00:20:05.400
Those are the only two options. Either they're trying to rig the election by getting illegal
00:20:10.300
aliens to vote illegally, or they think their own voters are so stupid and disorganized,
00:20:17.760
so many standard deviations away from the average IQ that they can't even prove that they're Americans.
00:20:23.740
Either way, it doesn't bode very well for the Democrat Party. Now, speaking of DEI,
00:20:29.820
among one of my many examples of Democrats doing this exact thing,
00:20:34.860
Gavin Newsom is coming out swinging against conservative objections to the potential Kamala
00:20:41.940
Harris pregnancy. Pregnancy? Presidency. I don't think she's pregnant. The New York Post came out and
00:20:47.180
said America may soon be subjected to the country's first DEI president, Kamala Harris. Gavin Newsom,
00:20:52.720
Governor Patrick Bateman there of California, tweets out, number one, Joe Biden is our next
00:20:58.060
president. Number two, this is straight up racist. Straight up racist. How dare you say
00:21:03.620
that Kamala Harris is a DEI president, an affirmative action pick? How dare you say that? That she's only
00:21:11.700
in her position because of her sex and the color of her skin? Except I got an NPR article from June 12,
00:21:20.320
2020. Pressure grows on Joe Biden to pick a black woman as his running mate.
00:21:26.860
Now, we've got here CBS News. This is April 27, 2020. Women of color are the core Biden challenged
00:21:33.440
to pick a black woman as running mate. Washington Post, August 10, 2020. Joe Biden pressed again
00:21:39.420
to name a black woman as his running mate. Kamala Harris was only picked to be Joe Biden's running mate
00:21:46.780
because she is a black woman, sort of a black woman. She's actually half Indian and half Jamaican,
00:21:51.420
and a lot of the Jamaican part is white. But anyway, she, according to the swatch test among
00:21:56.080
the Democrats, I guess she counts as a black woman. That's why she was picked. Don't take my word for
00:22:01.420
it. That's what the Democrats told us, Democrat politicians, Democrat activists, and the Democrat
00:22:06.040
media, including the news networks and the Washington Post and NPR and a lot of other places.
00:22:12.260
This is what Michael Anton over at Claremont Institute refers to as the celebration parallax.
00:22:18.480
The celebration parallax is when a political statement is true or false, depending upon
00:22:26.920
the perspective of the person observing it. So a leftist will get out there and say,
00:22:33.060
it is so wonderful that Joe Biden committed to picking a black woman. Doesn't matter. He didn't
00:22:37.380
say he's committed to picking Kamala Harris, just a black woman. This is so wonderful that he's committing
00:22:41.860
he will take out of the running 97% of people in America, but he's going to pick a black woman.
00:22:51.640
Is that 97%? No, I guess it would probably be 94%. In any case, he's going to pick this type of
00:22:57.440
that's so good. You say, I think it's bad that Joe Biden just immediately disqualified 94% of
00:23:02.740
Americans and he's just picking someone based on the color of her skin and her sex. He's not doing
00:23:07.800
that. What are you talking about? That's not true. It's only true if you're happy about it.

00:24:22.440
who overcame a difficult childhood to create a construction empire who is now most known not for
00:24:27.100
his construction stuff, but for his viral social media discussions, controversial discussions of
00:24:33.520
marriage, masculinity, and politics. Check out the teaser.

I grew up very poor, South Louisiana, in and out of trailer parks, 11 custody court battles,

violence, two house fires, no understanding of finance or wealth, and build the life that I want.

If you don't think you're going to go bankrupt about every four years, you're not doing shit anyway.
00:24:55.040
Obviously, you've had this great career. People don't really know you from that. People know you
00:24:58.640
from going on YouTube and other platforms and giving advice to young men. Are you married now?
00:25:02.780
I would never bring the state into my affairs. I don't chase women, Michael. I absorb them. I love
00:25:08.000
women. Let me be very clear about this. But? And in fact, I have quite the reputation for loving
00:25:13.040
them a bit too. And my wife helps, by the way. Wait, your wife helps? We got girlfriends, G.
00:25:18.720
Really? Yeah, man. I am not promoting this. I guess that, to me, that's the most interesting
00:25:23.620
thing you're saying. I am not. If it's good for you, why is it not good for some other guy?
00:25:34.840
Very controversial stuff. Some people absolutely love Justin. Some people don't quite love him that

much. In any case, you can watch our very long and thorough conversation right now over at the

00:25:55.140
Speaking of inclusion, the New York Times has just run a piece of blatant anti-Christian bigotry.
00:26:04.120
Specifically, anti-Catholic bigotry, not even so much in the text of the article, but in the picture
00:26:10.340
that they chose, they chose this picture, which is an image of Our Lady, of Mary. And instead of her
00:26:16.880
showing her immaculate heart, she's showing an American flag. And the headline is, your values
00:26:21.540
are not American values. So the image is specifically anti-Catholic. But then the text of it is just
00:26:28.860
broadly anti-Christian. It's written by some woman named Pamela Paul. And I'll just give you a little
00:26:35.980
taste of the article. Because it tells you a lot about our journalist class. Whenever a politician
00:26:42.700
cites Judeo-Christian values, this is how the piece begins, I find it's generally followed by something
00:26:48.080
unsettling. Last month brought two flagrant instances. Ryan Walters, Oklahoma's superintendent
00:26:54.160
of public instruction, said learning the Bible is necessary to having an understanding of the basis of our
00:27:00.900
legal system. Forgive me for wondering, is he referring to an eye for an eye or the stoning of
00:27:07.180
disobedient children? Okay, I'm going to pause right here. Even if you're the biggest Reddit tier
00:27:13.560
fedora tipping neckbeard atheist in the entire world, can you really dispute that the Bible is an important
00:27:22.940
book? It's an important book to understanding our law, our history, our culture. Perhaps you would say
00:27:30.400
the most important book ever written. Even if you don't believe it, even if you think it's false or
00:27:36.000
if you think it's bad, it is the book that has shaped our entire civilization. She denies this.
00:27:43.840
This writer in the New York Times seems to deny this. And then, speaking of Reddit tier neckbeard
00:27:49.680
fedora tipping atheism, says, oh, forgive me for wondering, does he think that an eye for an eye
00:27:54.600
is a great basis for our legal system or maybe the stoning of disobedient children?
00:28:00.280
So, first of all, there is a distinction understood from the Christian perspective between
00:28:06.480
the different types of laws in the Old Testament, some laws being juridical, some laws being liturgical,
00:28:14.860
some laws being moral. And the fullness of the prefigurations of Christ in the Old Testament
00:28:23.940
come about at the Incarnation. And this transforms our understanding of God and ourselves and our place
00:28:30.240
in the cosmos. And it doesn't abolish the law, not a jot or tittle, but it does fulfill the law.
00:28:36.180
And that's a conversation that this woman is not even close to being ready for.
00:28:39.760
But even just use this first one, an eye for an eye. An eye for an eye has been the basis,
00:28:48.280
not only of a legal system in Christian civilization, but I don't know, like Hammurabi's code. I don't
00:28:54.860
know, the notion that one must be punished in a way that is commensurate with the crime committed.
00:29:01.140
Yeah, that is at least a basic intuition of justice, even if it doesn't tell you the whole story,
00:29:06.060
even if there's much more to say about it. She goes on.
00:29:10.680
Their goal, these Christians, is to impose one form of religion, Christianity. And the underlying
00:29:16.020
message is that those who do not share it will have to submit. Despite what the Christian
00:29:22.020
nationalist movement would have you believe, America was not founded as a Christian nation,
00:29:25.020
nor is it one today. In a pluralistic country, neither the Bible nor Judeo-Christian values
00:29:29.000
are universal, including in the two heavily Christian southern states in which these laws
00:29:33.120
were passed. Put a pause right here. The Christian's goal is to impose Christianity,
00:29:38.000
and those who don't share that view will have to submit. We just concluded Pride Month. And during
00:29:42.280
Pride Month, a particular and dubious moral and ethical system was shoved down the throats of
00:29:49.260
everyone, including elementary school children. And Pride flags were raised in public buildings,
00:29:53.800
in schools, painted on sidewalks. And if you don't go along with it, you will be punished for that.
00:30:01.020
You'll be punished in your workplace. You'll be punished in school. Who knows? You might be
00:30:04.200
prosecuted. If you burn an American flag, you probably won't be prosecuted. If you burn a Pride
00:30:07.580
flag, see what happens when the cops come knocking on your door.
00:30:10.480
I'll get to the rest of it in just a moment, because there's so much nonsense in here. I don't
00:30:19.520
want to miss it. She says, America is not founded as a Christian nation. Again, you don't need a PhD
00:30:27.960
in American history to recognize that, well, beginning with Christopher Columbus, Christopher
00:30:33.620
Columbus came and discovered the Americas in an effort to fund a new crusade so devout a Christian was he.
00:30:40.120
Then, let's fast forward a little bit to 1620. The pilgrims who founded Plymouth Colony and were
00:30:46.320
some of the very first Americans, and in the American self-understanding, really are the people
00:30:51.560
who planted the seeds for what would become the United States of America. The pilgrims were
00:30:55.580
extreme religious zealots whose holiday is called Thanksgiving. Who were they giving thanks to?
00:31:03.000
I'll give you a hint. It was God, and it is their version, their understanding of the Christian God.
00:31:06.840
Even the founding fathers, many of whom were deists, many of whom were Enlightenment-influenced
00:31:13.080
thinkers who were far from Orthodox Christians, even they acknowledged that America is a Christian
00:31:18.220
country. John Adams, who sometimes is cited as being evidence that America is not a Christian
00:31:23.240
country because he signed the Treaty of Tripoli, which to get Muslim pirates to stop imprisoning
00:31:27.700
and enslaving American sailors in a diplomatic treaty, he said America is not a Christian country.
00:31:32.580
But, and that was a treaty actually negotiated by a Jeffersonian diplomat, but that's also a story
00:31:38.580
for another time. John Adams said explicitly, we don't need to wonder about what he thought from
00:31:44.080
the esoteric readings of a diplomatic document. He said, the general principles on which the
00:31:50.460
revolution was fought and independence was achieved are the general principles of Christianity.
00:31:54.700
John Jay, another founding father and author of The Federalist, first chief justice of the Supreme
00:31:58.860
Court, said, thank God that America is a Christian country founded by Christians. I hope we always
00:32:05.820
remain this way. I'm paraphrasing somewhat. Beyond the founding fathers, the national anthem written
00:32:10.540
in the early 19th century says this, and thus be it ever when free men shall stand between our loved
00:32:15.560
home and the war's desolation. Conquer we must when our cause it is just, and this be our motto,
00:32:19.300
in God is our trust. That wasn't written in the 20th century. That was written in the early 19th
00:32:23.940
century, before the Civil War even. It said, this be our motto in America, in our national anthem,
00:32:28.360
in God is our trust. Abraham Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln's speeches, the second inaugural Gettysburg
00:32:33.880
address, used language straight out of the King James Bible. Then, in God we trust is added to our
00:32:40.620
currency and into the Pledge of Allegiance in the 20th century, and on and on and on. I'm just giving
00:32:46.340
you a few examples to show you that threat all of American history, we have recognized that America
00:32:51.140
is, broadly speaking, a Christian country. So the first thing that strikes me, and this thing goes
00:32:56.660
on, but the first thing that strikes me about this New York Times piece is the ignorance. This woman
00:33:01.540
just has no idea what she's talking about. But the second thing that strikes me is the obliviousness.
00:33:07.300
When she says they want to make you submit to their beliefs, yeah, lady, you just finished Pride
00:33:11.500
Month. You demand that we submit to your beliefs, not just on Pride, but on all of liberalism,
00:33:16.640
even on the rejection of Christianity in American public life. That is a liberal demand, and it's
00:33:22.340
a totalitarian demand. You're demanding that we, Christians, give up our beliefs to buy into your
00:33:28.780
nonsense ideology. And you are far more authoritarian in your assistance upon that than any Christians
00:33:35.020
are in America. Then here's the kicker. While most of the Ten Commandments involve universal principles
00:33:40.520
and moral precepts can be found in the Bible, not everyone draws ethical guidelines from religion.
00:33:44.940
And when the Ten Commandments say, thou shalt have no other gods before me, the implication
00:33:48.620
is there is one true God. That is decidedly not true for all Americans, line by line. While most
00:33:54.520
of the Ten Commandments involve universal principles, what makes a universal principle? Notice she gets it
00:34:02.560
backwards. I think good evidence that a principle is universal is that it's in the Ten Commandments
00:34:09.160
because those come from God himself. She thinks it goes the other way around. Well, no, we just,
00:34:17.420
we know the universal principles, and maybe some of Christianity fits into that.
00:34:22.380
Well, okay, where do you get your universal principles from? Well, she's maybe deduced those
00:34:27.660
principles from reason. You know, okay, I believe in that. I'm a natural law guy. I believe that the
00:34:32.920
natural law is inscribed on every human heart, and that we can know universal moral truths through reason.
00:34:38.040
We can know the existence of God with certainty from human reason. How do you know your reason is
00:34:43.740
reliable? How do you know that? Why can you trust what your reason says in as much as you trust it?
00:34:53.200
The only way that that's possible is if the universe is intelligible, and if there is an
00:34:58.360
intelligence which created the universe, and if you have some of that intelligence, if, in other words,
00:35:03.220
you are made in the image and likeness of God, to trust your own reason to come to certain
00:35:09.420
conclusions about universal moral principles or whatever implies, whether you want to admit it
00:35:14.560
or not, that you believe in God. And to attack Christianity for saying, and Judaism for saying,
00:35:23.640
thou shalt have no other gods before me, the implication is that there's one true God. Well,
00:35:27.400
yeah, I mean, if there's such a thing as God at all, which there necessarily must be,
00:35:32.880
then there will be a true God, and there will be lots of false gods, because we can distinguish
00:35:38.500
between truth and falsehood. Using our reason, that's how you supposedly came to your universal
00:35:41.980
principles, lady. And she obviously believes that there is one true God for her. It's the one true
00:35:47.820
God of liberalism, which is really just the worship of the self. She's saying that. She's saying,
00:35:53.440
Christians, your God is false. My liberal God is true. And you will bow down before my liberal God,
00:35:58.260
and you will shut up and get out of public life. That's what she's saying. There's one true God that
00:36:04.100
is decidedly not true for all Americans. No, you're saying that all Americans should worship
00:36:08.580
only the self. But the problem with that is then you have a lot of different little gods,
00:36:13.800
and you're all very jealous gods, all of you individuals. And so you're going to impose
00:36:19.740
your irrational will on everybody by telling Christians to shut up in public life. Your
00:36:25.740
religious values are not American values. Forgive them, Father. They know not what they do.
00:36:32.600
The ignorance is striking because 50 to 60 or 70 years ago, a grade school child would
00:36:40.920
understand the basic aspects of American history that this New York Times journalist denies.
00:36:46.480
But it's the obliviousness. What she invades against as being authoritarian and infringing on
00:36:54.540
the religious rights of others in Christianity, she herself is imposing in a far more authoritarian and
00:37:00.140
irrational way. They just, they don't even know. Yes, the journalists lie. Yes, the journalists are
00:37:10.160
corrupt and deceptive. But they're also just so ignorant and oblivious. If you ever attempted to
00:37:17.880
give them credit, you do not have to do it. Now, speaking of anathematizing normal things,
00:37:23.460
the New Republic, a liberal journal, once prestigious liberal magazine, has come out with a new line of
00:37:30.580
attack against Trump. That's an old line of attack against Trump, but this is going to change it.
00:37:34.220
Trump, they argue, is Hitler. We'll get to that in one moment. First, though, folks, let's talk about
00:37:42.360
something every man needs in his grooming arsenal. That is a razor that actually works.
00:37:46.360
Jeremy's second-gen razors are here. They're a number one bestseller on Amazon. The new second-gen
00:37:50.740
razors are radically redesigned from top to bottom. The blades are sharper and longer-lasting,
00:37:54.660
providing you the smoothest shave every time. With Jeremy's, you have options, like the Sprint 3,
00:37:59.040
perfect for a quick, clean shave, while the new and improved Precision 5 is your go-to for an
00:38:02.860
exceptionally smooth and closed shave. Let the other companies spend their money on DEI and woke
00:38:06.780
ideology. Jeremy's razors focuses on what really matters, delivering a superior shave.
00:38:11.980
Head over to Amazon right now, grab one of their best-selling razors, and find more great Jeremy's
00:38:17.460
products. My favorite comment yesterday is from GT50093, who says, my Mexican wife just bought
00:38:23.960
our daughter a snow-white costume, and I keep accidentally referring to her as sand beige.
00:38:29.140
Thank you, Michael. Thank you very much. I thought that was one of my funnier lines, too. I'm glad.
00:38:33.340
I'm glad you appreciate it, and I hope your daughter has a nice time in the costume.
00:38:37.080
Speaking of anathematizing all these normal things, the New Republic is saying that Trump
00:38:42.800
is Hitler. This is their new cover. It's Trump with a short haircut and a Hitler mustache. Wow.
00:38:51.680
Wow. That's really making me think of Trump in a new and exciting way. American fascism. What would
00:38:56.980
it look like? Written by, it's this whole big feature, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Rosa Brooks, Maureen
00:39:02.320
Corrigan, Federico Finkelstein, and Emmanuel Guarizoli, Francisco Goldman. I don't recognize
00:39:08.660
any of these names until I get to the third line. Jason Stanley, I think, is some goofball
00:39:12.900
from Yale who mostly just goes on liberal networks and, you know, shouts about the orange
00:39:17.360
man. And Brian Stelter, okay. And then another person I've never heard of, Kian
00:39:21.140
Tajbox. This is it. American. Trump is Hitler. American fascism. What would it look like?
00:39:33.620
We chose the cover image based on a well-known 1932 Hitler campaign poster for a precise reason
00:39:38.800
that anyone transported back to 1932 Germany could very, very easily have explained away
00:39:43.200
Herr Hitler's excesses and been persuaded that his critics were going overboard. It's a whole
00:39:49.220
long explanation for why the New Republic is engaging in the lowest form of political commentary
00:39:56.400
possible. But I'll give you the short explanation of why they're doing this.
00:40:02.520
Because they want to kill him and they're fine with killing you too. That's why. And I,
00:40:10.340
unlike the New Republic, am not being irresponsible with my rhetoric or, you know, being hyperbolic or
00:40:16.680
cheap or anything like that. That's the reason to call Trump Hitler. The reason to call Trump Hitler
00:40:21.780
beyond the ease with which that kind of comparison is bandied about is because, according to the modern
00:40:30.800
liberal ideology, anything justifies, stopping Hitler rather, justifies doing anything,
00:40:39.240
including killing a baby. Do you remember if maybe five or six years ago now, Ben Shapiro spoke at the
00:40:47.100
March for Life and he was asked some question about killing baby Hitler. And he said, no, I wouldn't
00:40:51.260
kill baby Hitler because baby Hitler is a baby. You know, he hadn't done anything wrong yet and it's
00:40:55.200
wrong to murder babies. And this became a big national debate. He trended all over social media. You hear
00:40:59.760
this all the time. Jeb Bush was asked this, would you kill baby Hitler? Because according to the old,
00:41:06.320
the old view, which I think is ever ancient, ever new and remains true, Christianity. In Christianity,
00:41:12.100
there's the incarnation of absolute good in the person of Jesus Christ. And evil is merely a privation
00:41:19.680
of the good. In modern liberalism, I'm not the first to observe this. I think maybe Nick Land had
00:41:27.080
observed this. I kind of, I've been thinking about it at least for a while, but I'm sure I heard the
00:41:31.740
first part of it from someone. It's, it's so obvious. Modern liberalism does not believe in
00:41:38.540
the incarnation of absolute good. It denies the incarnation of absolute good. It actually,
00:41:43.480
modern liberalism inverts Christianity as it does at just about every turn. It's a caricature,
00:41:48.780
a parody of Christianity. So in modern liberalism, there's no incarnation of, of good. There's the
00:41:53.760
incarnation of absolute evil in the person of, of the mustachioed Austrian painter, you know,
00:41:59.600
the person of Hitler. And, and it's not that evil is the privation of the good. It's that good is
00:42:06.400
the privation of evil, that good is the distance away from evil. This is why in modern liberal
00:42:12.380
politics, everyone is just trying to be the furthest thing from a Nazi. That's the, probably
00:42:16.860
the one thing that the left and the right agrees on is that they themselves are not Nazis. The other
00:42:22.520
guy is the Nazi. No, you're the real Nazi. No, you're the real Nazi. That's, that's how it works.
00:42:27.400
So it, the worst thing that one can possibly be in public life is Hitler, is a, is a Nazi
00:42:37.420
or a racist or, you know, kind of the, the wickedness dissipates the further you get away,
00:42:43.680
but it's all, it's all variations on the same tune. Whereas in Christianity, the Christian seeks
00:42:50.380
to imitate Christ and the imitatio Christi. In modern liberalism, the, the, the imitation is,
00:42:55.040
is to be the opposite of Hitler, the opposite of a Nazi. And so in Christianity, there are,
00:43:03.880
there's a moral order that we cannot violate. You can't, you can't kill even baby Hitler in,
00:43:10.140
in Christianity, but in modern liberalism, all the ends justify the means. We have a consequentialist
00:43:15.340
view of morality. And if you've got, if you've got the specter of absolute evil incarnate, well,
00:43:20.540
you've got to do anything to stop him. The, the new Republic cover is about killing Trump. That's
00:43:24.780
what it's about. We couldn't, we couldn't out poll him this cycle. We can't rig the election. We can't
00:43:31.180
change all the rules. We can't shut the country down. We, we might not even be able to imprison him.
00:43:35.000
You got to kill the guy. That's it. Tell me the alternative, please. I'm all ears,
00:43:41.820
libs, libs. What else could this mean? Either it means that, you know, if, if Hitler were rising to
00:43:50.160
power, you shouldn't do anything you could to stop him. Or it means kill Trump and by association,
00:43:57.000
kill Trump supporters. That's what it's really about. The fact that the new Republic realized
00:44:01.920
they had to justify this extremely goofy and also dangerous cover with endless lines of gobbledygook
00:44:10.940
tells you they recognize they're, they're doing something here that is pretty dangerous. Now,
00:44:16.280
speaking of killing a governor candidate in North Carolina, uh, who is the current Lieutenant
00:44:22.400
Governor Mark Robinson has just gotten big trouble, big headlines, wild, crazy rant, because
00:44:28.120
this gubernatorial candidate said that some people need killing. You know, it was a time when we used to
00:44:34.320
meet evil on the battlefield. And guess what we did to it? We killed it. We didn't quibble about it. We
00:44:41.580
didn't argue about it. We didn't fight about it. We killed it. When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor,
00:44:47.760
what did we do? We flew to Japan and we killed the Japanese army and Navy. We didn't even quibble about it.
00:44:55.740
I didn't start this fight. You did. You wanted to be left alone. You should have left me alone.
00:45:02.460
We didn't argue and capitulate and talk about, well, maybe we shouldn't fight the Nazis that hard.
00:45:11.300
Some liberal somewhere is going to say that sounds awful. Too bad.
00:45:15.020
Get mad at me if you want to. Some folks need killing.
00:45:28.400
It's time for somebody to say it. It's not a matter of vengeance. It's not a matter of being mean or
00:45:35.260
spiteful. It's a matter of necessity. Everything he just said is true. Everything he just said is true.
00:45:44.700
I'm shocked. I should be shocked by these headlines. Mediaite left-wing outlet. Some folks need
00:45:51.340
killing. NCGOP governor nominee delivers wild rant in speech at church. What single thing did he say
00:45:59.320
that was not correct? We shouldn't have killed the Nazis? I don't know. Hey, mediaite, you got to
00:46:05.740
talk to the new republic over there. We shouldn't have at the very least fought the Japanese who
00:46:11.100
attacked us and killed our, he goes even for, he's, he's not even calling for a vengeful or,
00:46:19.520
or retributive killing. Certainly not for private killing. He's talking about killing from the civil
00:46:24.360
authority, but he's not even talking about it from the perspective of retribution. He's saying
00:46:28.340
sometimes it is a necessity to protect ourselves. You know, we have to do, that's
00:46:33.740
like the basis of government. Why do we have such a thing as law enforcement? It's to protect
00:46:40.700
the community and the common good of the community from bad people who are going to attack us.
00:46:45.880
And the left doesn't disagree. I'll prove to you that the left does not disagree that in principle,
00:46:52.000
some people need killing. The left is gleeful about killing little babies and the elderly and
00:46:58.240
the handicapped. In fact, they, they demand the ability to kill these people as some kind of a
00:47:04.400
human right. They'll say, oh, the baby, the baby who's not wanted, who's the product of an unexpected
00:47:10.240
pregnancy, that baby, it's, it is very important that that baby be killed through abortion. The mother
00:47:15.740
needs that in order to have the fullness of her liberation and her womanhood. She needs to be able
00:47:20.500
to kill her baby. Oh, the, the elderly, it's, it, they need to be put down. They need euthanasia,
00:47:27.780
a ridiculous euphemism. We, they need it. That's the humane and moral thing to do. Oh,
00:47:33.060
the handicapped people, they might suffer. It is necessary that they be killed. So that's the
00:47:38.140
difference. The conservatives believe that some people need killing and those people are Nazis and
00:47:43.320
kamikaze pilots and rapists and murderers. The libs believe that some people need killing and it's
00:47:48.360
babies and the elderly and the handicapped. Not one person disagrees that some people need killing.
00:47:53.640
