00:00:27.260 Exactly one week ago today, Joe Biden told a reporter what he wants his legacy to be.

00:00:33.380 Mr. President, what do you want your legacy for the day to be?

00:00:37.780 Yes, truly Congress.

00:00:40.640 Yesterday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell over 1,000 points.

00:00:44.800 The NASDAQ cratered by nearly 3.5%, and the S&P 500 suffered its worst day in two years,

00:00:50.860 following its worst start to any month in 22 years.

00:00:54.720 Financial analysts were shocked.

00:00:56.520 Political analysts were not.

00:00:59.440 I'm not great at interpreting market reports, but I know how to interpret Joe Biden.

00:01:05.100 Whatever he says, assume the opposite.

00:01:08.500 That much is clear.

00:01:09.880 What's not clear is who exactly we're supposed to blame.

00:01:14.320 That is the strangest part of the economic turmoil, the looming war in the Middle East,

00:01:19.760 the social disorder at home, etc.

00:01:22.680 Ordinarily, we would blame the president.

00:01:25.420 But no one really considers Biden to be the president anymore.

00:01:29.420 I would blame Kamala Harris. 0.65

00:01:31.100 She's the VP, after all.

00:01:32.480 She's the nominee in 2024.

00:01:33.780 But she doesn't really seem to do much at the White House.

00:01:37.700 So who is it?

00:01:39.640 This is perhaps the distinguishing feature of the Biden-Harris administration. 0.98

00:01:44.860 Our leaders are so cartoonishly incompetent. 0.79

00:01:47.740 It is not even clear who to blame for their failures. 0.96

00:01:52.720 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:01:53.380 This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:54.240 Welcome back to the show.

00:02:14.400 Kamala Harris has reportedly settled on her running mate.

00:02:19.400 We have the name.

00:02:20.820 We have the info.

00:02:22.220 We know what it means.

00:02:25.320 And we'll get to that in one moment.

00:03:45.680 Why did the stock market get creamed yesterday?

00:03:50.980 Ostensibly, it was because of a weak jobs report.

00:03:55.140 So there was this jobs report that came out on Friday that fell way short of expectations.

00:04:02.020 Employers added only 114,000 jobs in July.

00:04:06.560 Economists were expecting something like 175,000 jobs.

00:04:10.500 So that's a huge underperformance.

00:04:12.580 On top of that, wage growth measured by average hourly earnings continued to decelerate.

00:04:19.380 This is the weakest annual rate in three years, more than three years.

00:04:24.800 There was another report that came out earlier this week that showed job openings fell in June

00:04:30.740 to the second lowest level since March of 2021, three years ago.

00:04:35.540 All of this taken together is a sign, multiple signs, of recession.

00:04:41.620 I'm not terribly surprised by this, in part because Biden said the economy was doing great,

00:04:46.820 so I knew that the opposite would be true.

00:04:48.660 But also because it just seemed like the market was not reflecting the fundamentals of the economy.

00:04:55.020 The fundamentals of the economy seem kind of weak right now.

00:04:58.460 And eventually, reality will reassert itself.

00:05:01.820 Really, it should be a really tough moment for the Democrats to deal with this.

00:05:08.380 You know, the Democrats are the incumbent party.

00:05:11.060 Joe Biden is the incumbent president.

00:05:12.620 And yet, there's this weird situation where, do we really blame Biden?

00:05:17.480 We do in the sense that he's a total failed president.

00:05:20.060 But does anyone think he's even awake right now?

00:05:22.100 Probably not.

00:05:23.500 He's not running for re-election.

00:05:24.800 I don't even care to blame Joe Biden.

00:05:26.240 It's politically irrelevant to me if we blame Joe Biden.

00:05:29.240 In a way, it's kind of bad if we blame Joe Biden, because if we direct all of our ire at Joe Biden,

00:05:34.920 we're going to take our ire off of Kamala Harris, and then maybe she'll skate into the White House. 1.00

00:05:38.680 And then the question is, do you blame Kamala Harris? 0.59

00:05:40.940 She's the VP, right?

00:05:42.020 She's the second in command.

00:05:43.100 But nobody thinks she's doing anything at the White House.

00:05:46.440 The couple of tasks she's been assigned as vice president, she's completely ignored.

00:05:50.440 Being the border czar, she didn't have anything to do with anything she was put in charge of.

00:05:57.200 Getting rural Americans connected to high-speed internet.

00:06:00.080 Remember when Joe Biden in 2021 gave her that task at the State of the Union?

00:06:03.620 She didn't do that. 0.99

00:06:04.340 She didn't connect one single American to high-speed internet. 0.79

00:06:07.120 So you can say, okay, she's negligent. 0.95

00:06:08.760 She's incompetent. 1.00

00:06:09.640 Sure. 0.97

00:06:09.960 But do you blame her?

00:06:11.280 I don't know.

00:06:11.600 I just don't know who's in charge.

00:06:13.500 This has never happened before, certainly in my lifetime.

00:06:16.440 I think probably for many lifetimes, things are failing.

00:06:21.800 And yet we can't really point to someone in the government and say, it's you.

00:06:25.840 You know, you're the problem.

00:06:26.860 On top of this, compounding these problems, we're waiting to see if there's going to be the outbreak of a major war in the Middle East between Iran and Israel.

00:06:36.960 Joe Biden was asked about this.

00:06:39.380 He was walking out of, I don't know, is it a supermarket or something?

00:06:41.900 He was walking out of some shop.

00:06:43.540 A passerby with a handheld camera said, hey, Mr. President, what's going on with Iran and Israel? 0.97

00:06:50.140 And here is the pathetic answer from the commander in chief. 0.90

00:06:53.380 Mr. President, do you think Iran will stand down? 0.98

00:07:01.540 What?

00:07:02.640 Do you think Iran will stand down, sir?

00:07:07.720 I hope you don't know.

00:07:09.320 What?

00:07:13.180 I hope so.

00:07:15.040 I don't know.

00:07:16.920 Mr. President, you know, that major regional war that, who knows, could spark a world war?

00:07:24.960 Can you answer a question about that?

00:07:26.340 Huh?

00:07:26.800 What?

00:07:27.680 Iran? 0.79

00:07:28.280 What's, huh?

00:07:29.060 What's, what?

00:07:30.020 Huh?

00:07:30.240 What are you?

00:07:31.340 Iran.

00:07:32.540 There's a country called Iran.

00:07:34.500 It used to be called Persia.

00:07:35.960 And there's this other country called Israel.

00:07:38.020 You know, it's that state in the Holy Land.

00:07:40.060 And they might have a war.

00:07:41.540 Do you think Iran is going to back off? 0.85

00:07:44.200 And the best our commander in chief can offer is.

00:07:47.240 I hope so.

00:07:48.700 I don't know.

00:07:49.180 What are you asking me for?

00:07:50.040 I'm not the president.

00:07:51.320 Come on, man.

00:07:52.480 Come on, Jack.

00:07:53.340 What are you talking to me for?

00:07:54.800 Nobody seriously believes that I am actively running the country right now.

00:07:59.000 Beats me, man.

00:07:59.960 I don't know.

00:08:00.460 Tune into cable news.

00:08:02.000 Turn on a podcast.

00:08:03.320 Figure out what's going to happen over there.

00:08:05.780 Cool, cool.

00:08:06.260 Then there was a picture that was released by the White House, by the Joe Biden Twitter account,

00:08:11.400 which Joe Biden himself obviously has nothing to do with.

00:08:14.440 And it's Biden sitting.

00:08:16.280 Very official.

00:08:17.820 In the Situation Room, he's flanked by Lloyd Austin, Kamala Harris, Tony Blinken, the Secretary of State.

00:08:24.500 Bunch of other people.

00:08:26.040 He's looking really dialed in.

00:08:27.440 He's speaking to the Secretary of State.

00:08:30.180 Quite a contrast from the pictures of him leaving some market with a bouquet of flowers,

00:08:35.360 not appearing to know what Iran is.

00:08:38.080 He's there.

00:08:38.580 He's dialed in, right?

00:08:40.100 And he releases this statement.

00:08:42.800 Earlier, the vice president and I were briefed in the Situation Room on developments in the Middle East.

00:08:46.480 We received updates on threats posed by Iran and its proxies, diplomatic efforts to de-escalate,

00:08:51.340 and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:08:52.320 I have one question about that photo.

00:08:54.540 When was it even taken?

00:08:57.640 Maybe that photo was taken yesterday.

00:08:59.640 Could have been.

00:09:00.080 I'm not saying it wasn't.

00:09:02.960 But that photo doesn't reflect the reality of this White House.

00:09:10.200 We all saw Biden at the debate.

00:09:12.520 We've all seen Biden for years now.

00:09:14.580 We just saw Biden in that clip.

00:09:16.700 Huh?

00:09:17.020 What?

00:09:17.320 Iran? 0.79

00:09:17.900 What's going on in Iran?

00:09:18.920 I don't know.

00:09:19.480 Beats me.

00:09:19.960 I hope it's okay.

00:09:22.180 Nobody seriously believes that this guy is actively managing potentially an outbreak of a regional war from the Situation Room, the nerve center of the global empire.

00:09:33.560 Nobody believes that for a second.

00:09:35.400 Was that photo even taken yesterday?

00:09:37.780 I don't know.

00:09:38.180 So in that photo, Biden is seen speaking to Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

00:09:44.720 The purpose of this photo, whenever the White House releases a photo, whenever the news media editors choose a photo, it is intended to convey important information to you.

00:09:55.860 They're pretty good at this, the libs, okay?

00:09:58.900 And so there's a propaganda purpose to this.

00:10:03.580 What is the White House trying to convey?

00:10:06.660 I think implicitly they're saying, look, even if you don't have a lot of confidence in Biden right now, he's talking to Tony Blinken.

00:10:12.880 Tony Blinken's in charge.

00:10:14.180 The Secretary of State, he's managing this, the diplomatic efforts to de-escalate.

00:10:18.280 Okay.

00:10:18.920 Well, what is Blinken saying?

00:10:20.340 Blinken's quote, the Secretary of State's quote, as we are facing down a major war in the Middle East, all parties must take steps to ease tensions.

00:10:34.360 This is what he told reporters yesterday.

00:10:36.700 It is urgent that all parties make the right choices in the hours and days ahead.

00:10:43.980 Okay.

00:10:44.460 So the Secretary of State, in the absence of a functional president, in the absence of a competent vice president, the Secretary of State is taking the, hey, boys, settle down back there, approach to foreign policy.

00:11:01.380 The, all right, enough already.

00:11:03.640 You got till the count of three, pipe down, approach to grand strategy.

00:11:08.220 That'll probably work, right?

00:11:10.460 Does that inspire confidence in you?

00:11:12.280 All parties need to make good choices.

00:11:17.300 Oh, well, okay.

00:11:18.940 Okay, Mr. Secretary of State.

00:11:20.860 Okay.

00:11:22.380 Do you understand that, Ayatollah?

00:11:23.880 Yes, no, I understand.

00:11:25.220 I have to be good boy and make right choice in days ahead.

00:11:28.060 Okay.

00:11:29.420 Yeah, that's going to work.

00:11:30.380 That's going to work, right?

00:11:32.080 So what does this mean for us?

00:11:34.400 Tony Blinken actually explains.

00:11:35.760 He says, of course, we prepare for the possibility of further conflict.

00:11:38.880 We don't think conflict is inevitable or should be inevitable.

00:11:42.600 Or the increased conflict is inevitable.

00:11:44.440 We're going to continue to work to try to prevent it from happening.

00:11:48.620 But, of course, we prepare for all possibilities.

00:11:52.140 We are preparing.

00:11:53.260 Why are we preparing?

00:11:54.660 We are preparing because if a major war kicks off in the Middle East, the first thing Americans are thinking is, we do not want to be involved in this.

00:12:01.860 And I'm just here to tell you, I hate to burst your bubble, we inevitably are going to be involved.

00:12:07.420 There's so much more to say.

00:12:08.900 First, though, go to helixsleep.com slash Knowles.

00:12:13.200 I have a terrible confession to make.

00:12:16.540 For the past few nights, I have not slept on a Helix mattress.

00:12:21.420 You might be able to hear I'm just a touch under the weather.

00:12:24.120 I am in a self-imposed banishment to the guest room.

00:12:28.320 I miss my bed, folks.

00:12:30.160 I miss my bed, okay?

00:12:32.320 I love Helix mattress. 0.90

00:12:35.000 My son, when he moved out of his crib and into his first big boy bed, he sleeps on a Helix mattress.

00:12:40.320 I love it.

00:12:41.180 Helix Sleep has a quiz that takes just two minutes to complete, matches your body type and sleep preference to the perfect mattress for you.

00:12:48.520 Why would you buy a mattress made for someone else?

00:12:51.600 With Helix, you're getting a mattress that you know will be perfect for the way you sleep.

00:12:57.280 And then you can sleep like I do.

00:13:00.580 You know, you can wake up all nice and rested when I'm not being banished to the guest room where I should just get another Helix mattress for that anyway.

00:13:07.260 Helix has several different mattress models to choose from.

00:13:09.440 Soft, medium, firm mattresses.

00:13:10.880 Mattress is great for cooling you down if you sleep hot.

00:13:12.960 Great for spinal alignment to prevent morning aches and pains.

00:13:15.300 It's just great.

00:13:15.840 Right now, Helix is offering 20% off all mattress orders and two free pillows for our listeners.

00:13:23.140 Go to helixsleep.com slash Knowles.

00:13:26.440 Helixsleep.com slash Knowles.

00:13:28.380 This is their best offer yet.

00:13:29.340 It won't last long.

00:13:30.460 With Helix, better sleep starts now.

00:13:33.680 From the American perspective, vis-a-vis foreign policy, the worst news we got yesterday was that two rockets hit a U.S. base in Iraq.

00:13:42.740 Several U.S. service members, I'm sorry to report, were injured in an attack on Al-Assad Air Base in western Iraq.

00:13:50.860 And so as everyone's looking at the Middle East, a lot of people don't really care that much about Israel.

00:13:55.820 They don't really care about Iran.

00:13:56.920 They don't care about conflicts that have been going on for a very long time that don't seem to directly involve the U.S.

00:14:01.480 They just are saying, please don't let us get dragged into this.

00:14:05.160 And I share your feeling.

00:14:07.540 I totally agree.

00:14:08.880 I really don't want to get dragged into this.

00:14:10.760 And I can promise you with 100% certainty, if a major war kicks off in the Middle East, we will be dragged in.

00:14:17.580 We will be involved.

00:14:19.580 Because everybody knows the U.S. is not going to ditch Israel.

00:14:25.860 It's just not going to happen.

00:14:27.260 I don't care how many campus protests there are.

00:14:29.380 I don't care how serious the Intifada gets on the left.

00:14:32.420 I don't care how many people don't like Israel on the right.

00:14:35.640 It's just a fact of U.S. foreign policy.

00:14:38.260 The U.S. is going to back Israel. 0.97

00:14:39.620 Whether we want to or not, we're just going to do it.

00:14:41.220 And part of the reason we're going to do it is not just because of the particularity of the state of Israel.

00:14:46.720 It's because the U.S. is the global empire.

00:14:53.080 That's why.

00:14:54.840 We're the global empire.

00:14:56.100 We're involved in Ukraine.

00:14:58.440 Why are we?

00:14:59.440 We are one of the two major belligerents in the Ukraine war.

00:15:05.580 Why?

00:15:06.340 Why do we care that much about Ukraine?

00:15:08.040 We do have a fairly long-standing alliance with the state of Israel.

00:15:13.360 We don't have nearly as durable an alliance with Ukraine.

00:15:19.020 Because we're the global empire.

00:15:20.600 That's why.

00:15:21.340 And when major conflicts kick off anywhere on Earth, we just are involved.

00:15:25.380 And you might say, well, I don't want to be the global empire.

00:15:28.640 Sure.

00:15:29.400 But we just are.

00:15:31.400 I remember when I used to almost pull my hair out over this.

00:15:35.480 I said, why is it, why can't we just behave like a normal nation?

00:15:38.820 Why is it that we have to be involved everywhere?

00:15:40.500 Why do we want to become like an empire?

00:15:42.820 And I realized, you know, we have something called AFRICOM.

00:15:48.220 The American military is just all over the entire world.

00:15:50.980 We have CENTCOM.

00:15:51.700 We have AFRICOM.

00:15:52.460 We have all these.

00:15:52.900 I thought, you know, an isolated nation state of yeoman farmers doesn't have something called AFRICOM.

00:16:00.880 We don't have just a command center for an entire continent.

00:16:04.320 Okay.

00:16:04.600 We don't.

00:16:05.240 Because we're the global empire.

00:16:06.380 So that's why we're paying attention.

00:16:09.020 That's why Tony Blinken says we want to de-escalate.

00:16:11.400 We're preparing for conflict.

00:16:12.920 It's awful.

00:16:13.920 I hope that the war doesn't kick off.

00:16:16.600 We're recording this show right now at 830 in the morning central time.

00:16:19.820 As I'm speaking, the war might be kicking off.

00:16:22.960 I was refreshing the news last night as I was writing my show at 10 o'clock or 11 o'clock at night because it seemed inevitable.

00:16:31.340 And what would the war be in response to?

00:16:33.060 It would be in response to the state of Israel killing the head of Hamas in Tehran,

00:16:38.040 the head of Hamas who was attending the turnover of power there after the president of Iran was killed in a helicopter crash.

00:16:46.980 And why did Israel go kill the head of Hamas?

00:16:50.520 Israel killed the head of Hamas because Hamas attacked the state of Israel on October 7th of last year.

00:16:54.980 And it just seems like this is all building up for some kind of war.

00:17:01.440 And we're the empire, so we're going to have to be involved in it some way or another.

00:17:05.420 Now, speaking of our global empire, who will be the number two should Kamala Harris become president in November? 0.89

00:17:16.400 There was a big debate.

00:17:18.080 Also speaking of the Jews, there is a big debate.

00:17:21.000 Was it going to be the governor of Minnesota, Governor Waltz, or was it going to be the governor of Pennsylvania, Governor Shapiro?

00:17:29.460 Now, Waltz was the leftist.

00:17:35.080 The real, Shapiro is left-wing too, but Waltz is a real radical leftist.

00:17:39.640 Former public school teacher, supports abortion up until birth, supports transing the kids. 0.99

00:17:46.120 Real lib, real lib.

00:17:49.560 He is the governor of the largest Somali population in the United States.

00:17:56.300 So that actually does bring in a little bit of that Middle Eastern conflict.

00:17:59.500 It brings in a little bit of some geopolitics here.

00:18:02.760 Or is it Shapiro, Josh Shapiro, not Ben Shapiro, Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania, who is also radically pro-abortion.

00:18:08.480 But he's got some more moderate political views.

00:18:11.340 He's pro-school choice, relatively pro-cop.

00:18:14.400 As I said yesterday on the show, Kamala Harris is in this odd position of being at once extremely radical, the most left-wing senator when she was in the Senate, and also extremely establishment. 0.99

00:18:27.060 She's an empty suit who will adopt any position that suits her. 1.00

00:18:31.620 Kamala Harris, who raises money to bail violent rioters out of prison.

00:18:35.940 Kamala Harris, who portrays herself as a cop, who mocks the idea of abolishing prisons or building schools instead of prisons. 0.78

00:18:41.120 What is she?

00:18:42.420 You know, she's just this establishment empty suit on the one hand. 1.00

00:18:45.400 Also, she's the child of a Marxist professor who's to the left of Bernie Sanders in the Senate.

00:18:50.060 Which one are we going to get?

00:18:51.100 These two VP possibilities, I felt, were the signal of which way she's going to go.

00:18:58.500 Because Waltz is Kamala leaning into her radical leftism.

00:19:02.380 Shapiro is Kamala leaning more into her establishment Democrat cred.

00:19:08.340 Now, there is a problem for Shapiro, which does tie into his last name.

00:19:12.540 And that is right now, the Democrats in particular are not such fans of a certain ancient nomadic tribe.

00:19:18.320 Democrats have had an uprising against the state of Israel and the Jews for some months now.

00:19:24.680 And Shapiro is a Jew, and he's quite pro-Israel.

00:19:27.980 Here's Shapiro leaning in to the pro-Israel side on CNN some months ago.

00:19:33.680 I think several of these university leaders across the country are just simply losing control of the situation.

00:19:40.920 They have a responsibility to keep students safe.

00:19:43.600 Students shouldn't be blocked from going to campus just because they're Jewish or learning in a classroom as opposed to being forced online because they're Jewish.

00:19:52.680 It is simply unacceptable.

00:19:54.960 And you know what?

00:19:55.600 We have to query whether or not we would tolerate this if this were people dressed up in KKK outfits or KKK regalia, making comments about people who are African-American in our communities.

00:20:07.600 I'm certainly not condoning that, Jake, by any stretch.

00:20:10.500 But I think we have to be careful about setting any kind of double standard here on our campuses.

00:20:15.180 We've got to call it out for what it is.

00:20:16.860 And these university leaders have to make sure there is order on their campuses.

00:20:20.560 So that was going to really hurt him among the activist Democrat base.

00:20:26.860 The fact that he's anti-Palestine liberation protests, the fact that he's a little bit more moderate probably would endear him to some swing state voters, some more moderates, some centrists.

00:20:37.480 But it would really hurt him among that Democrat base, which is embrace the Intifada. 0.76

00:20:42.600 So which one are we getting?

00:20:43.500 According to reports, it's not official as we're broadcasting, but according to reports, Kamala is going with Tim Waltz of Minnesota.

00:20:52.060 According to the reports, Kamala is leaning into her leftism.

00:20:57.220 Now, this is a little weird because yesterday we got a report from the mayor of Philadelphia, Philly Mayor Sherelle Parker, who said,

00:21:04.820 She's proud to be back with so many leaders from across our region, supporting Kamala Harris for president and Josh Shapiro for vice president.

00:21:11.500 We're one city, one region, one Commonwealth United.

00:21:14.000 And then she tags all of the Democratic counts. 1.00

00:21:18.160 I said, oh, is she leaking some information?

00:21:20.600 Does she know something that we don't?

00:21:22.780 Then a colleague of mine pointed out yesterday, said, what does the mayor of Philly know about anything?

00:21:27.960 You think she's in the room deciding who the VP is?

00:21:31.720 Probably not.

00:21:32.480 So Kamala, if the reports are true, this is being widely reported, Associated Press, everywhere.

00:21:40.020 If the reports are true, it really is Tim Waltz.

00:21:43.500 Then Kamala is leaning into radicalism.

00:21:46.020 She's saying, look, the Democrat base hates Jews in the state of Israel more than they are inclined to win Pennsylvania, which is a must-win swing state.

00:21:56.360 The Democrat base is going to decide this election.

00:21:59.720 They're already planning the pro-Palestine protests at the DNC in August, and we're going to lean left, baby.

00:22:08.520 Let's go.

00:22:09.600 And she's a radical man.

00:22:11.400 Kamala, this is her.

00:22:13.260 This is her true color.

00:22:14.520 She was raised by a Marxist, like by an actual avowed Marxist professor.

00:22:20.780 You want to know the real Kamala?

00:22:21.840 Kamala, here's the real Kamala in about 20 seconds. 0.99

00:22:23.520 You know, we have to stay woke.

00:22:26.080 Like, everybody needs to be woke.

00:22:29.020 And you can talk about if you're the wokest or woker, but just stay more woke than less woke.

00:22:37.320 We got to be woke.

00:22:39.040 We got to do it.

00:22:40.120 We got to be woke, woke, woke.

00:22:41.640 She can't even elaborate on that.

00:22:43.720 She can't even elaborate on woke means, but she knows we got to be it.

00:22:47.360 This should be a Republican TV commercial.

00:22:50.320 I don't really like the word woke because I think it's a little bit of an ambiguous phrase,

00:22:54.740 and I think people use that phrase because they want to try to preserve liberalism

00:23:00.480 while distinguishing liberalism from the extremes of liberalism.

00:23:04.840 But I think wokeness is just the apotheosis of liberalism.

00:23:07.540 I think it's just the culmination of liberal premises.

00:23:09.820 So I don't think it's anything out of the ordinary exactly.

00:23:14.640 This is where liberalism leads you.

00:23:17.320 But especially for boomers, especially for voters of a certain age, maybe over the age of 50,

00:23:24.720 especially for people who are just kind of going about their daily lives.

00:23:28.420 They're not totally plugged into all the minutiae of politics.

00:23:30.800 I think that's a very effective message.

00:23:33.000 Woke is very unpopular.

00:23:34.880 People have a sense of what that word means, even if they can't precisely define it.

00:23:39.720 They don't like it.

00:23:40.920 You put Kamala on TV.

00:23:42.240 Kamala has the positions and the inclinations of a radical ideologue combined with the ignorance of an establishment striver.

00:23:52.360 She can't even elaborate on what woke means, but she knows she's for it, baby.

00:23:55.800 That is a great TV commercial, and that's an accurate representation of what Kamala Harris wants and believes.

00:24:03.060 Did you know that over 85% of grass-fed beef sold in U.S. grocery stores is imported?

00:24:08.420 That's why I buy all my meat from GoodRanchers.com instead.

00:24:49.920 We are going to preserve your cigars with the brand-new Mayflower Cigar Travel Humidor.

00:24:57.980 There has never been a better way to store your premium handmade cigars while traveling.

00:25:01.820 I have had many versions of this type of humidor over the years, and I've had many versions of it because I want different sizes.

00:25:08.600 Sometimes I have a different size bag, and because they work so well.

00:25:12.120 This is the best one I've ever seen.

00:25:14.600 We had this made.

00:25:15.380 It took many months to make this.

00:25:21.660 You can just throw it in your suitcase, your briefcase, your backpack.

00:25:24.560 It's got the lovely Mayflower cigars.

00:25:26.940 Very subtle, you know, very subtle design here.

00:25:28.760 You might even not be able to see it on camera.

00:25:30.660 Nice logo in the black right there on the case.

00:25:34.520 Handy.

00:25:59.980 To order some exclusions, apply.

00:26:01.140 Apply.

00:26:01.340 Kamala is woke.

00:26:08.180 Now, what Kamala is pretty good at is avoiding details. 1.00

00:26:12.900 So, she can appeal to establishment types because she's an empty suit, but she can appeal to the radicals because she's making gestures toward radical things, like choosing Tim Walz as her running mate, if that report is in fact true. 1.00

00:26:26.340 Sometimes, though, she does come out and embrace specific positions.

00:26:30.620 Dave McCormick, who's running for Senate in Pennsylvania, Dave McCormick just found this great little clip.

00:26:37.100 Kamala, when she was running for president in 2020, endorsed a specific policy that's going to be really unpopular in the Rust Belt states and those swing states.

00:26:45.960 She wants to destroy fracking. 1.00

00:26:49.520 This country's got a whole lot of hot button issues that we could touch on.

00:26:54.440 But what's the first thing we need to do to give us all some relief?

00:26:59.140 Well, let me start by saying this.

00:27:01.040 Climate change is the single greatest threat facing our world today.

00:27:04.960 That's why I am committed to passing a Green New Deal, creating clean jobs, and finally putting an end to fracking once and for all.

00:27:18.880 Mama LaKamala just don't give a frack. 1.00

00:27:21.560 He got her on the record to embrace totally destroying fracking.

00:27:28.240 Just clip that out.

00:27:29.880 The RNC has actually done a pretty good job of finding clips of Kamala.

00:27:32.640 Whoever's running RNC research on X is doing a bang-up job and deserves a raise.

00:27:37.860 Really, really good stuff.

00:27:39.280 That's a great clip.

00:27:41.100 Give me that clip.

00:27:43.280 Break that.

00:27:43.840 You don't need anything else on that clip.

00:27:45.900 It could be a 30-second TV ad and, more importantly, Google ad, Facebook ad, social media ad.

00:27:52.200 But also put that on TV for sure.

00:27:55.160 And then at the very end, say, I'm Donald Trump.

00:27:57.740 This is Kamala Harris.

00:27:58.900 I approve this message.

00:27:59.840 That's all you need.

00:28:00.680 Put her in her own words.

00:28:01.460 We're going to put an end to fracking once and for all.

00:28:04.560 Climate change is the most dangerous, dreadful threat that we face, and I'm going to totally end fracking.

00:28:11.840 I'm going to take away all your jobs.

00:28:13.460 I'm going to dramatically raise the cost of energy while the economy is teetering and a major war in the Middle East looms.

00:28:20.340 And the price of oil could go through the roof.

00:28:24.440 And I'm going to ignore the actual threats you face, economic threats, threats from across the border, drug threats, crime threats.

00:28:32.840 I'm going to say it's the sun monster is the biggest threat.

00:28:35.300 And, oh, by the way, did I tell you I'm going to take your job and raise your energy prices?

00:28:39.120 Perfect TV ad.

00:28:40.000 Love that.

00:28:40.480 This is radicalism.

00:28:43.000 And it's not just Kamala.

00:28:45.080 Jamie Raskin, Democrat member of Congress, just got caught.

00:28:49.180 Charlie Kirk posted this clip around.

00:28:50.820 He was asked what would happen if Trump did manage to win.

00:28:59.540 So, you know, November comes and goes.

00:29:02.320 Trump wins.

00:29:03.520 Now these members of Congress have to ratify the election.

00:29:10.200 It's January 6th, 2025.

00:29:14.220 What happens?

00:29:15.600 What can be put into the Constitution can slip away from you very quickly.

00:29:19.280 And the greatest example going on right now before our very eyes is Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which they're just disappearing with a magic wand as if it doesn't exist, even though it could not be clearer what it's stating.

00:29:32.520 And so, you know, they want to kick it to Congress.

00:29:34.760 So it's going to be up to us on January 6th, 2025 to tell the rampaging Trump mobs that he's disqualified.

00:29:43.100 And then we need bodyguards for everybody in civil war conditions, all because the nine justices, not all of them, but these justices who have not many cases to look at every year, not that much work to do, a huge staff, great protection, simply do not want to do their job and interpret what the great 14th Amendment means.

00:30:05.340 Okay, so what's he saying here?

00:30:08.260 He's talking about the 14th Amendment.

00:30:09.480 The 14th Amendment says that, you know, if you try to overthrow the government, you can't run for office again.

00:30:15.820 Okay.

00:30:16.340 And so the Democrats have been saying before they tried to throw Trump in prison for all sorts of other reasons and before ultimately they tried to kill him, one argument they were making was that Trump is just disqualified.

00:30:28.540 He can't even run again because he did an insurrection on January 6th and courts have heard this argument and it's obviously totally bogus.

00:30:37.840 And so the courts didn't give Raskin the answer that he wanted.

00:30:41.740 The courts refused to disqualify the leading presidential contender in the United States.

00:30:47.840 And so Raskin says, okay, well, we're going to disqualify him.

00:30:50.600 I don't care if Trump wins.

00:30:52.760 He's not qualified to run for president.

00:30:54.840 So we're not going to certify the election results.

00:30:57.240 And at this point, when you're hearing this, your head must be exploding if you're an even semi-reasonable person because you're saying, hold on.

00:31:04.760 The Democrats have just spent three, four years whining about how – or three years, I suppose – whining about how the Republicans refuse to certify the election and how that's a threat to democracy and how that constitutes an insurrection and how they need to go to jail because of it.

00:31:23.440 But now Democrats are threatening to do the very same thing they accuse the Republicans of. 0.58

00:31:27.400 This is hypocrisy. 0.99

00:31:30.120 Hypocrisy. 0.99

00:31:31.220 Do they not understand the hypocrisy? 0.96

00:31:33.820 Imagine if the shoe were on the other foot.

00:31:37.200 Calm down.

00:31:37.880 They don't care.

00:31:41.720 They don't care.

00:31:43.760 For these people, for people like Jamie Raskin, for the libs who have bellowed until they're blue in the face about January 6th, the worst day in history.

00:31:52.980 For these people, democracy is when they win.

00:31:57.240 And fascism is when they lose.

00:32:00.140 And that's it.

00:32:00.960 So if they win the election, if it seems as though they won the election, if they can plausibly take the election and you challenge the election, you're the fascist, they're the defenders of democracy.

00:32:15.960 If their opponents win the election, fair and square, uncontroverted, and they don't like that, then somehow you're still the fascist and they're still the defenders of democracy.

00:32:28.400 There's no even rule that applies to everyone here.

00:32:34.720 This guy is talking about how he wants to overturn the election, even if it's a fair election, because the court refused to disqualify the leading presidential contender.

00:32:45.780 They don't care.

00:32:47.460 You can talk about it.

00:32:48.660 If the shoe were on the other foot, can you imagine?

00:32:51.520 Could you imagine the double standard, the hypocrisy?

00:32:54.140 They don't care.

00:32:55.340 And they might get away with it.

00:32:56.180 Look what's going on in Venezuela.

00:32:57.080 In Venezuela, it looks as though the socialist government got booted out by the voters.

00:33:02.820 It looks as though the centrist party won.

00:33:06.020 And yet the socialist dictator there is just not going to leave.

00:33:09.340 He's just saying, no, we won.

00:33:10.680 Forget about the votes.

00:33:11.740 We're not going to leave.

00:33:13.820 And he might eke out this political victory, not because the people voted for him, but he's just going to stay in power.

00:33:21.300 And do you think that he's going to stay up at night tossing and turning, oh, no, the hypocrisy?

00:33:28.520 Oh, no, I'm doing what I accused my opponents of doing.

00:33:31.320 Oh, no, boy, golly.

00:33:32.800 No, he doesn't care at all.

00:33:33.920 He's staying in power.

00:33:35.260 That's all that matters to him.

00:33:37.360 That's all that matters to people like Jamie Rask.

00:33:39.140 That's all that matters to the liberals who are speaking this way.

00:33:42.860 They just are going to exercise any political power they can, whether it's just or not.

00:33:47.680 Here's a good example of this.

00:33:49.540 Google just had to admit to the House Judiciary Committee, again, more great work from Congressman Jim Jordan.

00:33:57.240 Google had to admit that the autocomplete feature on Google was rigged against Trump.

00:34:02.260 After the very near assassination of Donald Trump, the Harris breadth we came to, Trump having his head blown off,

00:34:10.600 if you started, you know, you type in on Google a search, and there will be an autocomplete feature.

00:34:15.180 You type in Donald, it should complete Trump.

00:34:17.220 You type in Kamala, it should complete Harris. 0.59

00:34:19.200 And it'll have some suggestions of other searches.

00:34:21.460 Well, according to this document, through counsel, Alphabet, the parent company of Google,

00:34:27.980 admitted to the committee and select subcommittee that after the July 13th assassination attempt on President Trump,

00:34:32.660 predictions for queries about the assassination attempt against former President Trump should have appeared but didn't.

00:34:38.580 So you type it in.

00:34:40.420 You know, Donald Trump should say assassination should be the first.

00:34:43.560 It doesn't come up. 0.72

00:34:44.980 The assassination of Trump should fill in.

00:34:46.840 It doesn't come up.

00:34:47.480 It seems like all the news, pretty important political news, just got memory holed.

00:34:52.720 Ah, forget about it.

00:34:53.520 We don't want people to know about the assassination.

00:34:55.520 So what's Google's explanation?

00:34:57.060 Alphabet explained that Google searches autocompletes built-in protections around political violence were out of date,

00:35:02.220 and that as a result, autocomplete failed to provide relevant results about the attempt on President Trump's life.

00:35:08.620 Alphabet also shared that the company updated these protections once this issue was flagged,

00:35:13.760 and that autocomplete now shows results about the July 13th assassination attempt as reflected in the image below.

00:35:21.820 Okay, so it was just, look, it was just, there were built-in protections against autocompleting things about political violence,

00:35:26.680 and so it's just, look, it was just an accident that this important news,

00:35:30.360 quite relevant to the election about Donald Trump, was being censored by Google.

00:35:35.180 Just an accident.

00:35:36.240 Okay.

00:35:36.440 Maybe it was.

00:35:39.740 Do you ever notice, though, that these apparent accidents always favor the left?

00:35:50.020 You know, there's always some explanation for it, but it seems like it always favors the left.

00:35:56.020 Oh, yeah, the Secret Service protection.

00:35:58.300 It just, ah, there was just a big accident.

00:36:00.140 Yeah, it was a big, well, I noticed that the big accidents never almost result in the Democrats getting their head blown off.

00:36:07.860 It's always the Republicans, it seems, right?

00:36:10.840 Oh, look, it was just a big, what a fluke.

00:36:12.660 COVID was such a fluke.

00:36:13.860 And as a result of this fluke, this crazy accident, all the election rules got changed to favor Democrats.

00:36:19.040 Oopsie-daisy, just, wow, who could have predicted that?

00:36:22.960 Oh, oops, look, the Hunter Biden laptop story, yeah, it was just a fluke.

00:36:26.380 The federal government thought it was Russian disinformation, maybe, even though they now admit that, obviously, it was not.

00:36:31.820 And then, you know, the word got from the federal government to big tech, to Twitter and Facebook, and it just said, don't allow people to post this or even privately message this.

00:36:41.620 And, you know, it just turned out that the laptop was true, but it was just an accident.

00:36:44.940 We thought it wasn't true, and then it wasn't.

00:36:46.100 It's just, it's weird.

00:36:47.240 It's just kind of strange how all the accidents and all the oopsie-daisies always favor the left.

00:36:54.180 And they never favor the right.

00:36:56.380 So much so that one begins to wonder whether they're not merely accidents.

00:37:03.020 Now, you know, after the 5,000th oopsie-daisy, you start to think maybe there's a little bit of intent there.

00:37:10.320 Now, the left is very good at wielding political power.

00:37:13.180 The right occasionally wields political power, and you're seeing a great example of this.

00:37:16.320 In Louisiana right now, as Louisiana governor, does something so simple, so basic, would have been completely unobjectionable.

00:37:27.400 No one would have batted an eyelash even 30, 40 years ago.

00:37:30.460 And it's driving the libs crazy.

00:37:33.080 It's that he put the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms.

00:37:36.500 We'll get to that in one second.

00:37:37.380 First, though, The Daily Wire is about to release its very first theatrical film.

00:37:42.400 From the guys who brought you What is a Woman comes America's next great question, the movie Am I Racist?

00:37:46.660 Only in theaters September 13th.

00:37:49.100 Matt Walsh went undercover in the belly of the DEI beast, surrounded by professional race baiters and diversity grifters. 0.70

00:37:54.360 Pre-sale tickets are available August 15th.

00:37:56.380 Watch the trailer now at miracist.com.

00:38:00.680 My favorite comment yesterday is from Hard-boiled Entertainment, who says,

00:38:04.880 Why is Harris so stuck on Trump's debate agreement with Sloppy Joe?

00:38:09.460 It's kind of a funny name for Joe.

00:38:11.180 Whatever happened to being unburdened by what has been?

00:38:13.880 That's so true.

00:38:14.380 Trump agrees to debate Joe Biden.

00:38:16.340 He beats Joe Biden in the debate so bad that Biden drops out of the race.

00:38:19.660 Now Harris wants to swoop in on Joe Biden's debate agreement.

00:38:24.100 But I thought the whole point of the Harris campaign was that we're going to imagine what can be unburdened by what has been.

00:38:29.880 All right, let's imagine what can be.

00:38:31.320 Let's come to a debate agreement between Kamala and Trump. 0.81

00:38:37.020 First, though, let's take a look at what this Louisiana governor is doing.

00:38:40.980 Really, really good stuff.

00:38:44.380 But the parents are upset already.

00:38:47.540 The lawsuits are being filed.

00:38:49.160 They don't want the Ten Commandments in their kids' classroom.

00:38:53.460 And here's what the governor of Louisiana is to say.

00:38:55.760 For the children who may not believe in God and see this in their classroom or parents who are upset that they may be in their child's classroom, what should they do?

00:39:03.320 Well, here's what I would say.

00:39:05.460 I think we've forgotten in this country that democracy actually means majority rules.

00:39:11.560 For some kind of way over the last two decades or so, for whatever reason, our government has flipped the script.

00:39:18.320 Our people believe that we flipped the script.

00:39:20.080 When you elect people, you elect them by a majority.

00:39:23.900 That majority gets to rule.

00:39:26.540 That does not mean that if you don't like something, you have a right to impose that which the majority likes.

00:39:35.440 And so what I would say to those parents is that if those posters in school and they find them so forward, tell the child not to look at it.

00:39:45.800 I love this.

00:39:47.700 Jeff Landry absolutely loved this answer.

00:39:51.440 Love that accent, too.

00:39:52.560 You know, my grandfather came from Baton Rouge.

00:39:55.120 I love that Louisiana accent.

00:39:57.600 He says, look, if for whatever reason you don't like the Ten Commandments, I think most people can agree.

00:40:06.320 Ten Commandments, pretty good.

00:40:07.420 You don't need to be the most orthodox Christian or Jew. 0.93

00:40:10.860 You can be kind of agnostic or even atheist.

00:40:13.520 You can agree with thou shalt not commit murder.

00:40:16.440 Thou shalt not steal.

00:40:17.560 But even if for whatever reason someone's going really wrong in your life and you just really hate the Ten Commandments, you want to go home, worship Moloch, worship the devil or something, just tell your kid not to look at it.

00:40:29.100 It's just one little poster in a classroom.

00:40:33.880 Just don't look at it.

00:40:35.720 And I love this answer because this is the answer the libs give us when they upend every standard in norm and taboo in society.

00:40:46.080 When they put up that rainbow flag in classrooms.

00:40:49.440 They say, oh, you know, if your kid doesn't like it, he doesn't have to look at it.

00:40:52.520 Really, what they want you to do is pledge allegiance to it.

00:40:55.040 Oh, that pride parade? 0.99

00:40:56.360 What, you don't like it when a bunch of naked dudes are committing all sorts of obscene, disgusting sexual actions on a float going down Main Street in front of kids? 0.96

00:41:05.960 Well, tell your kid not to look at it. 0.92

00:41:07.280 You know, just don't look at it, man.

00:41:09.960 You don't have to.

00:41:10.480 No one's forcing you to look at it.

00:41:11.840 Okay, well, now that's what we're saying about the Ten Commandments.

00:41:13.980 No one's forcing you to look at it.

00:41:16.160 But I think if you can have mile-long parades multiple times per year for weird, gross sex stuff in every major city and many small towns in America,

00:41:28.260 I think we can have a little corner of a classroom for the Ten Commandments.

00:41:31.120 Don't you think?

00:41:32.120 Is that okay?

00:41:33.740 Because, by the way, until recent decades, certainly until the middle of the 20th century and even a little bit after that,

00:41:41.120 we had this stuff all the time.

00:41:43.100 We had the Bible taught in schools.

00:41:46.020 We had prayer in schools.

00:41:47.980 Until the liberals in the middle of the 20th century on the court decided to try to rewrite American law.

00:41:55.600 If you want to talk about American history, sometimes the libs will try to invoke the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution or the great American tradition.

00:42:02.780 They should be very careful invoking the great American tradition because in the great American tradition,

00:42:07.520 your kids would be taught the Bible and they would be praying in schools.

00:42:12.600 The great American tradition is blasphemy laws throughout the country. 0.99

00:42:16.080 The great American tradition is blue laws in accordance with Christian tradition. 0.98

00:42:19.760 The notion that we're some secular, downright atheistic country where religion has to be banished from the public square,

00:42:34.200 that is a fantasy that was concocted after the Second World War.

00:42:37.880 That is not real.

00:42:39.420 I mean, perhaps it is real now because the libs have been so effective at imposing it.

00:42:43.160 But this is basic stuff.

00:42:47.000 And you have to ask yourself, if in a classroom where the charge is to teach, we have public education to teach kids.

00:42:55.360 And teaching involves reading, writing, and arithmetic.

00:43:00.180 Teaching involves dates and history and skills, music and art.

00:43:04.860 And teaching also involves, most basically, ethics.

00:43:09.100 You know, good and bad, right and wrong.

00:43:11.040 If we're no longer allowed to teach, thou shalt not commit murder, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.

00:43:22.140 But we are allowed to teach, and we're actually forced to teach, the ethics of the pride movement. 0.56

00:43:29.540 Pride, the queen of all vices, is a good thing.

00:43:31.320 The deadliest of the seven deadly sins is a good thing. 1.00

00:43:33.300 The pride movement, which makes all sorts of claims about sexual behavior, which are contrary to morals.

00:43:42.940 What political rights do we have?

00:43:45.820 What good is public education? 0.99

00:43:47.180 If public education at that point would simply exist to make your kid worse, to make your kid dumber and more wicked. 0.96

00:43:56.780 And you wouldn't be allowed to teach him in public school how to be good and smart. 0.92

00:44:03.900 So at that point, what's a good, just get rid of it at that point, who cares?

00:44:07.880 This is the final test as far as I'm concerned.

00:44:10.240 If you can't have a poster of the Ten Commandments in your classroom, okay, get rid of the classroom then, man.

00:44:16.620 It is good for nothing.

00:44:18.860 Now, speaking of civics education, Nancy Pelosi has just raised a perspective about a new face on Mount Rushmore.

00:44:34.900 So who's on Mount Rushmore now?

00:44:37.040 You got Washington.

00:44:39.440 You got Lincoln.

00:44:41.880 You got Jefferson.

00:44:43.820 You have Teddy Roosevelt.

00:44:45.020 And she wants to add Joe Biden.

00:44:47.780 So he was in a good place to make whatever decision, the top of his game.

00:44:53.360 Such a consequential president of the United States, a Mount Rushmore kind of president of the United States.

00:45:00.200 Want to know what comes next.

00:45:01.940 That he belongs up there on Mount Rushmore.

00:45:05.360 Lincoln and Joe Biden.

00:45:08.600 But you got Teddy Roosevelt up there and he's wonderful.

00:45:11.300 I don't say take him down, but you can add Biden.

00:45:14.140 You can add Biden.

00:45:16.460 And she does it with a total straight face.

00:45:18.420 What is this about?

00:45:19.100 Does she really believe this?

00:45:21.700 I like how she kind of says, look, you got Teddy Roosevelt.

00:45:24.460 Why can't you?

00:45:24.760 And a fair enough point.

00:45:25.720 You know, I really like Teddy Roosevelt too.

00:45:27.420 I'm not sure if he quite rises to the level of significance the same as a Washington or a Jefferson or a Lincoln.

00:45:35.720 She says, oh, you got Teddy Roosevelt.

00:45:36.820 You might as well have Biden.

00:45:37.820 Does Biden, does he rise to that same degree of significance as even a Teddy Roosevelt?

00:45:42.680 No, obviously not.

00:45:45.840 He's one of, if not the worst president in American history.

00:45:49.600 He's totally failed.

00:45:51.520 He, despite begging to run for a second term, was really not permitted to.

00:45:56.300 And no one even thinks he's really the president right now.

00:46:00.500 And then while he's been in office, the economy has suffered.

00:46:05.200 We're beginning to see that quite clearly.

00:46:07.020 The world has gone up into flames.

00:46:09.320 The border has been wide open.

00:46:11.660 We've suffered an invasion that coincides with the worst mass poisoning in American history through the fentanyl crisis.

00:46:17.180 It's just a complete disaster of a presidency.

00:46:20.620 And Nancy Pelosi is actually a pretty smart woman, so she doesn't really think this.

00:46:24.920 What is she doing?

00:46:26.000 She is trying to curry favor with a man that she just stabbed in the back.

00:46:33.220 She and Schumer and the Obamas and the Clintons, they all picked up Joe Biden, the cadaver with whatever little life was left in it, and they just threw it under a bus.

00:46:43.180 And he's furious at them, obviously.

00:46:46.160 She was asked, how's your relationship with Biden?

00:46:48.360 I think her answer was, you got to ask him.

00:46:50.320 I think it's okay.

00:46:51.740 You got to talk to him, though, I guess.

00:46:53.060 But he is so great.

00:46:54.060 He needs to be on Mount Rushmore.

00:46:55.160 The entire establishment media, which had spent weeks as they were trying to get him out of the race, saying that Joe Biden was completely brain dead and incompetent, mocking him and just absolutely humiliating this guy.

00:47:07.500 Then the moment he drops out, they say, oh, he's a great American hero.

00:47:11.740 You should be on Mount Rushmore.

00:47:12.920 And I think Biden thinks, you know, save it.

00:47:15.040 You can stuff it, guys.

00:47:16.740 You just shivved me in the back.

00:47:18.860 Now, there's much more to say, but we'll have to wait until tomorrow.

00:47:24.880 There is no member block, I am being told.

00:47:28.180 The Membrum Segmentum has been canceled by the producers.

00:47:31.480 Why is that, gentlemen?

00:47:35.540 Okay, we're going to be talking to Mr. Shapiro.

00:47:39.060 Hold on.

00:47:39.980 We're canceling the beautiful Membrum Segmentum to talk to Ben Shapiro.

00:47:42.980 This is Ben Shapiro's namesake was not even selected as the VP.

00:47:46.920 If Josh Shapiro had been selected, I would at least, I'd get some Shapiro insight from Ben.

00:47:51.520 But okay, whatever.

00:47:52.360 We're going to Ben.

00:47:54.080 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:48:08.360 Republicans or Nazis, you cannot separate yourselves from the bad white people. 0.99

00:48:13.380 Growing up, I never thought much about race. 0.98

00:48:15.180 Never really seemed to matter that much.

00:48:17.160 At least not to me.

00:48:17.980 Am I racist?

00:48:19.140 I would really appreciate it if you love.

00:48:20.540 I'm trying to learn.

00:48:21.200 I'm on this journey.

00:48:22.540 If I'm going to sort this out, I need to go deeper undercover.

00:48:26.820 They don't say I'm racist.

00:48:28.340 Joining us now is Matt, certified DEI expert.

00:48:31.780 Here's my certification.

00:48:32.900 And what you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness.

00:48:35.620 This is more for you than this for you.

00:48:36.600 Is America inherently racist?

00:48:38.200 The word inherent is challenging there.

00:48:40.080 I want to rename the George Washington Monument to the George Floyd Monument.

00:48:43.240 America is racist to its foes.

00:48:44.880 So inherently.

00:48:45.760 Yeah. 1.00

00:48:46.140 This country is a piece of shit. 1.00
