The Democratic National Convention is in full swing and the party is on its second day. Michelle Obama, Bernie Sanders, a former backstabbing Trump staffer, and a former Trump staffer were all invited to speak at the DNC. However, no speaker encapsulates the party s agenda better than a woman who thinks the FBI should be used as a personal police force.
00:07:10.580Trump and Pritzker both inherited money in the same year, in 1999.
00:07:16.020That's when the head honcho of the Hyatt fortune died, and that's also when Trump's father, Fred Trump, died.
00:07:24.140Trump inherited, according to the New York Times, $413 million in 2018 dollars.
00:07:30.440So the New York Times adjusts for inflation, even though it's back in 1999.
00:07:33.880They say in 2018 dollars, Trump inherited $413 million.
00:07:37.820J.B. Pritzker inherited in 1999 $1.4 billion, which is the equivalent of $2.1 billion in 2018 dollars, meaning Pritzker inherited more than five times the amount of money that Trump did.
00:07:55.000And yet Trump is significantly wealthier than Pritzker because Trump is not only a billionaire, but he's much, much more of a self-made man than the Democrats billionaire.
00:08:04.440The billionaire that the speech right before we were told is awful, terrible, we don't represent these guys.
00:08:09.880But then the billionaire walks out, he says, look at all this money I inherited, and the Democrats go crazy.
00:08:15.280Because they are, in the year of our Lord, 2024, the party of the plutocrats, they're the party of the billionaire class, they're the party of big corporations, they're the party of the oligarchy.
00:08:28.860And they can pay a little lip service, they can send AOC out there to do a little soft shoe routine.
00:08:34.140And try to give the impression that this is a working man's party.
00:08:38.040They can send the two-bit union boss, they can't get the head of the Teamsters anymore, he's working for the Republicans now.
00:08:43.220But they can get the understudy to go out there.
00:08:46.560They can even get Bernie Sanders to go out and do the same routine he's been given for 50 years, but it doesn't change the underlying reality.
00:08:54.360And I don't think it's going to fool very many people.
00:08:56.220The Democrats represent an out-of-touch, self-interested, elite, wealthy, plutocratic class that has very little care for the common good.
00:09:06.460And the Republicans are now the party of the working man.
00:11:44.860Michelle, how much are you worth again, Michelle?
00:11:47.580A really conservative estimate of Obama's net worth, I'm not just talking about a windfall or some income.
00:11:54.200Their net worth is $70 million, and it's probably significantly higher than that.
00:12:02.560They're going to spend that all, or do we think that Sasha and Malia are maybe going to get a little bit of an inheritance?
00:12:08.240I suspect, even if they have lavish spending habits, Michelle and Barack, I suspect they're going to leave a little bit of money to their kids.
00:12:17.140And in fact, I suspect that most beneficiaries of generational wealth in America are not those hillbilly, deplorable, roughneck Trump supporters.
00:12:29.240I suspect they're a little closer to those coastal liberal Democrats, guys like J.B. Pritzker, who gave a speech just last night right around Michelle Obama's speech.
00:12:46.180I say it frequently, I don't want to sound like a broken record, but every accusation these people make is an admission of something they themselves are doing.
00:12:57.700And by the way, I'm not knocking her for general.
00:12:59.520I hope she leaves a lot of money to her kids.
00:13:14.500In fact, I think generational wealth can be a good thing because, one, from the political perspective, it can establish the conditions for a kind of cultural inheritance.
00:13:25.160Not just a financial inheritance, but a cultural inheritance.
00:13:28.680We're going to pass something along to the next generation.
00:13:31.220We're going to try to pass on the privileges that we had to another generation.
00:13:37.580And this has effects far beyond just one individual or beyond one family.
00:13:43.500It creates a kind of stability across the years for a civilization.
00:13:49.000However, it's also a good thing at the individual level because I'm not working to buy a nice car.
00:17:29.480It seems to me this is the Trump campaign floating this idea.
00:17:33.680And so it's obviously going to be attacked from the left, because the left wants to trans the kids.
00:17:40.100But this was also attacked from the right, because people looked at this, they said, hold on, hold on.
00:17:45.620Trump is going to call for making child sex change surgeries without parental consent a felony?
00:17:52.120It should be, just because a kid has some pervert parent who wants to castrate him, doesn't mean that should be legal.
00:18:00.500This should be totally illegal, even if you have parental consent.
00:18:03.680And beyond that, really, these surgeries should just be illegal, period.
00:18:07.100Because the only people who are inclined to procure them are suffering from serious mental illness, because a man can't actually become a woman.
00:18:15.360So even a grown adult who thinks that he's giving his consent to this surgery, well, look, he's deeply mentally ill.
00:18:22.140So his ability even to consent to such a thing is severely compromised.
00:18:26.960No, man, this shouldn't be legal at all.
00:18:28.900The first prominent sex change surgery, if such a thing were even possible, the first prominent genital mutilation in American culture was in the middle of the 20th century.
00:18:40.540And it was George William Christine Jorgensen, who had to go to Copenhagen to have this surgery done, because no one did it in America, because it's insane and medically irresponsible.
00:18:51.700Then, later on, there was the Johns Hopkins Gender Clinic that opened up to perform these kinds of surgeries.
00:19:01.060And Dr. Paul McHugh, the surgeon who was in charge of it all, ended up shutting down the clinic, because he said it wasn't actually helping anybody.
00:19:07.880Only in really recent years has this kind of medical experimentation been permitted by the law on anybody, at any kind of scale.
00:19:19.800And so this really shouldn't be legal for anyone.
00:19:22.960It certainly shouldn't be legal to perform on kids.
00:19:25.480And whether the parents consent to it or not doesn't really matter, because it's abject child abuse.
00:19:29.640So then add on to all of that, the fact that Trump floated this very specific policy proposal, but then didn't, it would appear, maybe there's a clip and we've all just missed it, and it's just for some reason not been reported in the news.
00:19:45.780But that it didn't quite actually happen.
00:19:50.120Well, it shows you something I said the other day.
00:19:52.080I said this about immigration, another issue.
00:19:54.980Many of Trump's supporters think we need to restrict immigration.
00:19:58.040We just have way too many people coming into the country, and we have had that for about 60 years now.
00:20:02.540This is the view, depending on which survey you're looking at, of the majority of Americans, including many independents and many Democrats.
00:20:08.260Just too many people, 60 million people in 60 years is the largest movement of human beings in recorded history.
00:20:22.040That is not the acceptable view in politics.
00:20:24.020In politics, the only acceptable views are open up the borders, that's Kamala Harris's view, or we need to stop illegal immigration, and we need much more legal immigration, which is Trump's view.
00:20:35.780There is no politically tenable view to the right of that, even though, depending on how you ask the question, most people seem to think we have too much migration.
00:20:45.700However, it just doesn't seem that our body politic is willing to go that step of actually excluding people from the country.
00:22:18.720First, though, go to helixsleep.com slash Knowles.

00:22:30.080With Helix, you are getting a mattress that you know will be perfect for the way you sleep.
00:27:05.500Speaking of the Kamala Harris campaign, President Trump just absolutely destroyed a reporter for raising a line of attack that the Kamala campaign has been advancing.
00:27:19.160This was in Howell, Michigan, yesterday.
00:27:43.860So in case you couldn't hear, if the audio was a little bit low, the reporter says, President Trump, how do you respond to Kamala Harris's campaign suggesting that your appearance in this city has to do with racism, that this city has a racist history?
00:27:59.620Because I guess some Klansman or something lived in Howell, Michigan once.
00:28:02.340What do you have to say that your appearance here is a racist appearance?
00:28:07.140And Trump, amazingly quick on his feet, or very well prepared, or both.
00:28:12.580He said, hold on, who campaigned here in 2021?
00:28:19.020It almost makes me think that the reporter was not attacking Trump, but was giving Trump the opportunity to respond to a silly attack from Harris.
00:30:04.580Now, speaking of racism, I have to give a hat tip here to first Aaron Sabarian, a reporter for calling my attention to this, Washington Free Beacon.
00:30:13.420And Abigail Anthony, who has compiled this list of examples of white people saying anything from perfectly ordinary and defensible things to maybe slightly what you'd call racist things,
00:30:32.360being punished, being punished, being punished much more harshly than hardened criminals, violent criminals, child abusers, et cetera.
00:33:02.840Judge Benedict Kelleher sentenced a man to 18 months in prison for chanting who the F is Allah.
00:33:10.960Fair enough question in a country that doesn't really have much of a history with Islam.
00:33:14.720In a country that's supposed to speak English, not Arabic.
00:33:19.040This very same judge gave a lighter sentence to a man who physically assaulted a police officer.
00:33:24.520Judge Rupert Lowe, another British judge, sentenced a man to nine months in jail for yelling supposedly racist comments at a soccer player.
00:33:33.320He sentenced a man to nine months in jail because he's a soccer hooligan who yelled some nasty comments.
00:33:40.340This same judge gave no jail time to a doctor who surreptitiously served a woman his own bodily fluids, rather nasty bodily fluids, in a cup of coffee.
00:33:58.000And of course, of course, of course, I'm not even really surprised.
00:34:02.920Because for the liberals, racism is pretty much the worst thing you can do.
00:34:08.660Having any, because what do they mean by racism?
00:34:12.600They don't even just mean, you know, burning a cross on someone's lawn or something.
00:34:16.780What they mean by racism is if you think it's okay to be white, if you don't actively despise white people and despise yourself for being white,
00:34:26.860if you have any feeling of kinship for people who are your kin, you know, or your broader kin, or for your national heritage and identity,
00:34:37.180if you have any feeling of that, that is about the worst thing that you can possibly do.
00:34:42.280Whereas, if you have some sexual disorder, they probably wouldn't even call it a disorder a lot of the time.
00:34:49.900Well, that's, you know, that's just innate.
00:34:55.720You know, come on, we've got to extend the rainbow, baby.
00:34:57.540Obviously, if you assault a police officer, that's probably a good thing, because the police are the enforcers of white supremacy,
00:35:05.220of the illegitimate state that is founded on prejudice and racism, and on the backs of the poor, oppressed, racial minorities, and indigenous.
00:35:14.780Oh, yeah, it's actually, it's probably a good thing.
00:35:16.360Give the guy an award for attacking a cop.
00:35:17.940Or a guy who, you know, who does this depraved bodily fluid activity.
00:35:28.700I'm trying to speak in euphemisms, because the actual thing he did is so disgusting, and this is a family show.
00:35:33.380But he does another depraved sexual act.
00:35:36.440Well, hey, man, you know, sex isn't that big a deal, right?
