00:00:37.700 A French court has just barred the country's leading right-wing politician, Marine Le Pen, from running for office.

00:00:44.080 The court sentenced her to four years in prison as well.

00:00:46.960 The French ruling comes just months after Romania's constitutional court overturned the results of that nation's presidential election,

00:00:53.900 which also coincidentally was won by the right-wing candidate.

00:00:57.060 And both rulings, of course, come shortly after Democrats in the U.S. tried but happily failed

00:01:02.860 to preempt our nation's leading right-winger from winning his second term by kicking him off the ballot,

00:01:09.140 as well as by trying to imprison him four different ways, as well as by nearly blowing his head off.

00:01:15.240 Now, this is not how democracies are supposed to operate.

00:01:19.960 In democracies, the people are supposed to be able to elect the candidates they want.

00:01:24.840 In practice, however, many nations of the West are allowed to elect whomever they please,

00:01:30.940 except for the candidates that liberal elites don't like,

00:01:34.680 which tells us a lot about the actual regimes that rule us.

00:01:38.460 Because, and I'm not the first to observe it,

00:01:41.920 sovereign is he who decides the exception.

00:01:45.440 I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:05.960 Welcome back to the show.

00:02:07.440 So, Kanye West has just conducted an interview in a full Ku Klux Klan outfit.

00:02:13.960 Though the Ku Klux Klan outfit is not white, it's black, but he's got the pointy hat on.

00:02:19.360 And anyway, we'll get to that in a moment.

00:02:22.440 First, though, go to three, the number three,

00:02:36.320 and they break, and then, and it was not until moving into my house,

00:02:39.540 first house I ever bought here in Nashville,

00:02:41.240 that I saw what really good window treatments can look like.

00:03:48.600 Before we get to Kanye West's neo-Nazism,

00:03:51.460 I want to talk about another Nazi. 0.94

00:03:53.320 That would be the Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt,

00:03:56.160 who is a political philosopher.

00:03:58.260 And just because he's a Nazi doesn't mean he never got anything correct.

00:04:03.020 You know, it's sort of like Hitler drank water too, okay? 0.67

00:04:05.380 It's not...

00:04:06.220 Heidegger was rehabilitated, wasn't he?

00:04:08.100 So, anyway, Schmitt was this political philosopher

00:04:10.800 who had the misfortune of being associated with the Nazis.

00:04:13.460 So, you know, that's a bad mark on your resume.

00:04:16.840 However, he came to some serious philosophical conclusions.

00:04:21.820 He's probably most famous for the friend-enemy distinction,

00:04:25.360 which he says the politics all basically comes down to friend and enemy.

00:04:29.240 And another one of his famous observations is that

00:04:32.300 the sovereign is he who decides the exception.

00:04:36.140 And this is obviously true here.

00:04:37.620 It's true not just in Nazi Germany.

00:04:41.060 It's true not just in fascist Italy.

00:04:44.320 It's true in modern France and modern Romania and America 0.84

00:04:48.160 and pretty much any society.

00:04:51.840 The sovereign is the one who decides the exception.

00:04:54.840 The people will elect the candidate that the people want.

00:04:58.260 Well, except for Donald Trump,

00:04:59.620 except for Marine Le Pen,

00:05:00.900 except for Georgescu in Romania.

00:05:04.060 And why?

00:05:04.840 Well, okay, what does France say?

00:05:06.500 This judge,

00:05:07.240 Bénédicte de Pertuis,

00:05:10.140 my friend is a little weak.

00:05:11.720 Oh, oh, oh.

00:05:13.300 He has ruled that Marine Le Pen

00:05:15.120 and some other members of her party

00:05:16.960 committed embezzlement.

00:05:19.360 They weren't just making administrative errors,

00:05:21.680 but they embezzled some money.

00:05:23.440 Like every other French politician, I guess.

00:05:25.400 I don't know.

00:05:25.880 I don't know the merit of the charges.

00:05:27.640 Maybe they did.

00:05:28.220 Maybe they didn't.

00:05:29.960 One thing I can promise you is

00:05:31.560 Marine Le Pen is not being imprisoned

00:05:33.520 and barred from running for president

00:05:34.840 because she embezzled some money. 1.00

00:05:37.620 She is being barred from doing those things

00:05:39.760 because she keeps getting closer and closer

00:05:41.440 to actually winning elections

00:05:42.620 and the elites in France won't let her do that. 0.99

00:05:45.700 Same thing in Romania.

00:05:46.920 In Romania,

00:05:48.220 Colin Georgescu,

00:05:50.000 the right-wing candidate,

00:05:51.180 won the presidential election

00:05:52.700 and the Constitutional Court of Romania

00:05:54.900 annulled that election in early December.

00:05:57.820 They annulled it because they said

00:05:59.700 that this party took money from the Russians

00:06:02.440 or they broke some rule or some law.

00:06:04.920 So anyway, they're going to overturn the results.

00:06:06.460 But they didn't really overturn the results

00:06:08.320 because the party took money

00:06:10.960 or did not take money from some group

00:06:12.480 or because the party violated some regulation or other.

00:06:17.120 They annulled it because they didn't like the candidate

00:06:19.120 and they didn't want Georgescu,

00:06:20.560 the right-winger, to take over in Romania.

00:06:22.780 Same thing with Trump.

00:06:23.500 Now, do you really think that President Trump,

00:06:28.540 that, well, happily,

00:06:30.380 Trump actually beat the liberals

00:06:31.600 who were trying to do this to him.

00:06:32.740 But do you really think that the liberals

00:06:33.980 were trying to take Trump off the ballot

00:06:35.400 or else imprison Trump,

00:06:37.240 convict him on at least one of four counts

00:06:39.440 because they don't like

00:06:43.280 that he maybe slept with a porn star?

00:06:44.940 Remember, that was one of the charges.

00:06:46.020 He slept with a porn star and covered it up.

00:06:49.460 I don't think so.

00:06:50.180 I don't think the party of Bill Clinton

00:06:51.420 or really any, I mean,

00:06:52.380 they're all sex freaks in Washington, D.C.,

00:06:55.020 and especially the Democrats.

00:06:56.460 I don't think it had anything to do with a sex scandal.

00:06:58.720 Is it because Trump was holding classified documents

00:07:03.520 in an unsecured location?

00:07:05.360 I don't think so.

00:07:05.920 Biden was holding, I think, more documents

00:07:07.880 in a much less secure location

00:07:09.320 in a place that his crackhead son had access to,

00:07:12.320 his crackhead son who was peddling American influence

00:07:15.260 overseas to the highest bidder.

00:07:16.680 No, it wasn't that.

00:07:19.080 It's because they didn't want Trump to win.

00:07:22.380 And so all of the attempts to take him off the ballot

00:07:25.540 or the attempts to imprison him,

00:07:27.440 all of those were just procedures

00:07:30.480 that were serving a predetermined conclusion,

00:07:35.180 namely that Trump could not be the president.

00:07:37.200 Because certainly in many countries in the West

00:07:41.020 and in our own country until recently,

00:07:43.920 the sovereign was the liberal elite,

00:07:46.420 which is why the transfer of power to Trump

00:07:49.800 has been violent.

00:07:51.200 It's why, you didn't really see it

00:07:53.000 on the establishment media,

00:07:54.200 but it's why when Trump was elected in 2016,

00:07:56.060 the liberals were setting cars on fire in Washington, D.C.

00:07:59.640 It's why agencies of the state were being turned

00:08:02.900 to subvert that election

00:08:04.320 and then to overturn it when he actually won in 2016.

00:08:08.740 It's why the Libs changed all the election rules in 2020

00:08:11.400 to stop Trump from winning a second term.

00:08:14.560 It's why they justified his assassination in 2024,

00:08:18.260 because that's an actual change in regime.

00:08:23.020 So we're seeing this throughout the West.

00:08:25.040 This is a seismic political shift,

00:08:27.080 not just in one office or one party

00:08:30.960 taking over for another party.

00:08:32.100 It's a shift in the way that our political order operates.

00:08:35.640 It's, and it's why the agents of the state

00:08:38.320 are doing their best to suppress what the people want.

00:08:40.740 You're seeing this in the UK right now too, by the way.

00:08:43.080 The United Kingdom, I teased this on the show yesterday,

00:08:45.100 we didn't have time to get to it.

00:08:46.180 The United Kingdom, in the courts,

00:08:49.060 notice how the courts seem to be playing a huge role in this

00:08:52.480 because the people don't like these kinds

00:08:55.100 of far liberal policies.

00:08:56.920 So the courts have to step in

00:08:58.100 to undermine what the people want.

00:08:59.320 The courts have decided that white men 0.96

00:09:01.320 need to serve longer and harsher prison sentences

00:09:03.880 than any other group of people

00:09:06.020 for committing the same crimes.

00:09:08.880 That's it.

00:09:10.020 Sometimes when you read these stories,

00:09:11.720 it sounds like we're being hyperbolic

00:09:13.180 or partisan and polemical.

00:09:14.740 No, that's just what's happening.

00:09:17.260 Even the liberal politicians in the UK

00:09:19.260 are admitting that this is completely insane.

00:09:21.940 Of course, because they don't want to stand election

00:09:23.600 defending, sentencing white men

00:09:26.240 to harsher prison sentences

00:09:27.340 on the basis of their sex and their race.

00:09:29.420 But this is supposed to come into effect today

00:09:33.160 and magistrates and judges,

00:09:36.020 according to this ruling,

00:09:37.780 would have to consult a pre-sentence report

00:09:40.360 determining whether to imprison someone

00:09:42.780 of an ethnic or religious minority.

00:09:46.180 All sorts of people.

00:09:47.560 So Keir Starmer, this awful lib prime minister,

00:09:50.060 he said he's prepared to fight the courts on this

00:09:52.780 to stop the introduction

00:09:53.980 of a two-tier system of justice.

00:09:55.840 He said all options are on the table

00:09:58.140 to stop it from being implemented.

00:09:59.740 But what I have to ask the liberal politicians is,

00:10:02.640 why?

00:10:03.660 Isn't this the logical conclusion of DEI?

00:10:09.120 If you say that the goal of the state

00:10:11.460 is diversity and equity,

00:10:14.140 some type of equality of outcome,

00:10:16.320 and inclusion,

00:10:18.480 then don't you need to have

00:10:19.600 a two-tier system of justice?

00:10:21.720 You're saying that people are not beginning

00:10:23.900 from the same starting place.

00:10:25.240 So the only way to institute justice

00:10:30.000 is to treat people differently,

00:10:32.320 according to the metrics that you deem important.

00:10:34.780 DEI deems race very important.

00:10:37.340 It deems sex important when it's convenient, 0.95

00:10:39.200 and it denies sexual reality

00:10:40.500 when it's convenient alternately.

00:10:42.720 But what it comes down to,

00:10:43.900 if we're talking about friend and enemy

00:10:45.100 of the political left,

00:10:46.540 comes down to punishing white people 0.80

00:10:48.160 to give an advantage to non-white people,

00:10:50.740 and punishing men to give an advantage to women 0.99

00:10:53.280 and people who don't know what sex they are.

00:10:56.540 And it's just a basic principle.

00:10:59.420 If DEI says that you are going to

00:11:02.240 artificially elevate certain favored groups,

00:11:05.960 then the only way you can do that

00:11:07.800 is by artificially suppressing other groups.

00:11:12.880 What else are you going to do?

00:11:13.940 If you say,

00:11:16.060 we need,

00:11:17.100 through some artificial process

00:11:19.100 that we've come up with,

00:11:20.320 to forget about prison sentences

00:11:22.140 and just look at affirmative action.

00:11:23.540 If you say,

00:11:24.140 we need more black people

00:11:26.220 or Hispanic people

00:11:27.380 in the universities.

00:11:29.120 Right now,

00:11:29.520 we have too many white people 1.00

00:11:30.840 and Asian people in the universities.

00:11:32.420 Then that means,

00:11:33.140 in order to achieve your DEI goal,

00:11:35.020 you're going to have to take

00:11:35.980 those university spots

00:11:36.980 away from white people 0.98

00:11:38.160 and away from Asian people. 1.00

00:11:40.300 You're just going to have to suppress them.

00:11:41.820 So, yeah,

00:11:44.840 why wouldn't that apply

00:11:45.600 to prison sentences too?

00:11:48.440 I agree with the libs

00:11:50.960 who are recognizing

00:11:52.020 that this is really wicked

00:11:53.140 and bad

00:11:54.000 and not preferable

00:11:55.100 and they don't want it.

00:11:56.100 They're going to vote against it

00:11:56.820 at the ballot box.

00:11:58.240 But my question to them is,

00:11:59.720 where have you been

00:12:00.580 for the last 20 years,

00:12:01.880 the last 50 years?

00:12:03.760 Where have you been?

00:12:06.900 It hadn't occurred to them.

00:12:08.080 Kind of like how trans sports 0.80

00:12:10.180 was what finally opened

00:12:12.040 people's eyes

00:12:12.740 to the preposterous nature

00:12:15.320 of the sexual revolution.

00:12:17.460 They said,

00:12:17.700 oh, okay, this is great.

00:12:18.520 And my question on the trans sports

00:12:19.680 is, oh, where have you been?

00:12:21.520 We've had gender dysphoria

00:12:22.680 since feminism. 0.99

00:12:23.940 You know, feminism, 1.00

00:12:24.540 which says that women 1.00

00:12:25.460 should just be men. 0.99

00:12:27.580 Then they redefine marriage.

00:12:29.080 They have all the weird

00:12:29.780 pride stuff in the streets.

00:12:31.600 They, but,

00:12:32.500 so, okay, all right.

00:12:33.280 It took Husky Hank

00:12:34.260 giving some girl a concussion 0.72

00:12:35.960 in a volleyball game

00:12:37.280 to wake you up.

00:12:38.300 Okay, well, I guess the same

00:12:39.580 is true of DEI here.

00:12:40.680 It takes a two-tier system

00:12:42.080 of justice that sentences

00:12:43.540 white men to longer 0.59

00:12:45.100 and harsher prison sentences

00:12:46.120 for you to realize

00:12:47.080 that DEI is bad news.

00:12:48.720 Okay, great.

00:12:49.380 So now the people

00:12:49.980 are against that.

00:12:50.840 But you think that

00:12:51.600 the liberal elite

00:12:52.500 are just going to give up

00:12:53.220 political power?

00:12:54.720 I don't think so.

00:12:55.440 If you believe that,

00:12:57.320 you are really

00:12:58.140 politically naive.

00:12:59.040 I've got a bridge

00:12:59.700 in the United Kingdom

00:13:01.360 to sell you.

00:13:02.020 I've got a bridge

00:13:02.480 in London to sell you, okay?

00:13:05.100 They're going to hold on.

00:13:06.340 So what you can expect

00:13:07.520 as this shift takes place

00:13:08.580 is more elections overturned,

00:13:10.880 more conservative politicians

00:13:12.260 being imprisoned.

00:13:13.500 You can expect

00:13:14.180 more political violence,

00:13:15.220 the likes of which we saw

00:13:16.100 with the left

00:13:16.700 attacking the right

00:13:17.800 when Trump won

00:13:18.760 in 2016.

00:13:21.140 They ain't giving up

00:13:21.700 without a fight.

00:13:22.660 There's so much more

00:13:23.280 to say first, though.

00:13:26.600 Balance of Nature,

00:13:27.160 fruits and veggies,

00:13:27.900 is the most convenient way

00:13:29.040 to get whole fruits

00:13:29.580 and vegetables daily,

00:13:31.180 especially if you're focused

00:13:32.240 on creating a healthier,

00:13:33.180 happier lifestyle.

00:13:34.360 Nature is pretty good

00:13:35.260 at giving us

00:13:35.700 the nutrients we need

00:13:36.620 through our fruits

00:13:37.080 and vegetables.

00:13:38.140 So balanceofnature

00:13:39.020 takes fruits and veggies,

00:13:40.220 freeze-dries them,

00:13:40.920 turns them into a powder,

00:13:41.980 puts them into a capsule.

00:13:43.120 You take your fruit

00:13:43.740 and veggie capsules every day,

00:13:45.380 your body knows

00:13:46.120 what to do with them.

00:13:47.440 Balanceofnature

00:13:48.000 is just one ingredient

00:13:48.940 of a balanced lifestyle

00:13:50.040 and has no intention

00:13:51.180 to replace a healthy diet,

00:13:52.520 exercise, sleep,

00:13:53.260 or any other healthy habits.

00:13:54.780 It's intended to be used

00:13:55.780 in concert

00:13:56.420 with other healthy habits.

00:13:58.020 I love balanceofnature.

00:13:59.620 I know that my team

00:14:01.360 loves balance of nature.

00:14:03.340 Some of them

00:14:04.060 have a relatively healthy lifestyle.

00:14:05.680 Some of them, like me,

00:14:06.380 are a little bit less healthy

00:14:07.260 in other areas.

00:14:07.800 So all the more reason

00:14:08.660 to look for balance of nature,

00:14:27.400 I also really want to tell you,

00:14:29.020 as I fumble with my beautiful

00:14:30.300 Mayflower Triple Flame lighter,

00:14:32.340 about my Smells and Bells candle.

00:14:34.480 Because Matt,

00:14:35.960 greedy Mr. Walsh,

00:14:37.420 is upset

00:14:38.740 that I'm selling

00:14:40.460 a zillion candles a day.

00:14:42.720 So he's trying to beat

00:14:44.140 the Smells and Bells candle

00:14:45.440 at thecandleclub.com

00:14:46.560 slash Michael.

00:14:47.520 He has his own can,

00:14:49.180 and it's apparently named

00:14:50.620 after his goat or something.

00:14:52.960 So I'm offering you

00:14:53.920 the opportunity

00:14:54.420 to make your home

00:14:55.380 smell like a 12th century

00:14:56.760 monastery.

00:14:57.800 Walsh is giving you

00:14:58.640 the opportunity

00:14:59.200 to make your home

00:15:00.020 smell like his goat.

00:15:02.180 I don't think he's going

00:15:03.240 to win the competition.

00:15:06.300 Speaking of racial

00:15:07.280 identity politics,

00:15:09.180 Kanye West

00:15:09.760 is doing Nazi stuff again. 0.54

00:15:13.180 There's a lot of Nazi stuff

00:15:15.140 in the show today,

00:15:15.880 isn't there?

00:15:16.280 Well, anyway,

00:15:17.360 Kanye West is doing

00:15:18.320 Nazi stuff,

00:15:19.160 neo-Nazi stuff,

00:15:19.960 I guess.

00:15:20.240 He's wearing a

00:15:20.940 Ku Klux Klan outfit,

00:15:22.560 but it's not a white one.

00:15:24.300 It's a black one. 1.00

00:15:26.660 Now, there have been

00:15:27.420 this kind of outfit,

00:15:32.060 the Ku Klux Klan outfit.

00:15:33.500 It didn't begin with

00:15:34.180 the Ku Klux Klan.

00:15:35.160 Okay, you'll still see

00:15:36.340 religious groups in Spain

00:15:38.040 wearing this outfit.

00:15:38.920 It's kind of a medieval outfit,

00:15:40.220 the conical shape,

00:15:41.180 but I don't think that Kanye West

00:15:43.260 is doing his best impression

00:15:44.720 of a medieval Spanish

00:15:46.780 religious order here.

00:15:47.860 I think he's,

00:15:48.820 given his recent statements,

00:15:51.060 and by recent,

00:15:52.140 I mean his consistent statements

00:15:53.460 of the last five years or so,

00:15:54.780 I think he's doing this

00:15:56.580 to be provocative

00:15:57.220 and to look like a neo-Nazi.

00:15:59.020 The funniest part of it,

00:16:00.120 though, is,

00:16:00.820 while wearing the

00:16:01.780 Ku Klux Klan outfit,

00:16:03.480 he's doing an interview

00:16:04.140 with DJ Academics,

00:16:05.720 and he just talks about

00:16:06.640 totally mundane

00:16:07.700 pop music stuff.

00:16:09.580 What is the real thing

00:16:11.480 with you and Drake?

00:16:12.280 I've always been confused.

00:16:13.500 It feels like,

00:16:14.100 I can't tell if it's

00:16:14.700 a love-hate thing.

00:16:15.580 I've watched

00:16:20.460 hundreds of hours

00:16:22.040 of you talking about

00:16:23.620 just interviews.

00:16:24.460 Yeah, my first question,

00:16:25.380 what's up with the beef

00:16:26.460 with Drake?

00:16:26.840 It felt like the energy shifted,

00:16:27.780 and then we just started

00:16:28.560 seeing it everywhere.

00:16:29.580 I can't tell.

00:16:30.840 What is it?

00:16:33.560 Yeah, it's like family members

00:16:34.980 that you don't fuck with. 0.98

00:16:36.020 Like, I appreciate.

00:16:37.460 One thing is,

00:16:38.580 Drake is a million times

00:16:40.080 better than Kendrick,

00:16:41.040 and a million times

00:16:41.780 more important.

00:16:42.900 You know what I'm saying?

00:16:43.440 What Future has done,

00:16:44.580 Thug,

00:16:44.940 where Drake just culturally

00:16:46.660 is,

00:16:48.340 that shit last year, 0.63

00:16:49.680 I couldn't,

00:16:50.020 I couldn't even barely

00:16:50.740 sit through that shit.

00:16:51.660 That shit was insane, bro.

00:16:52.820 That shit was,

00:16:53.500 had Lucy and Grange,

00:16:54.920 Universal,

00:16:56.220 Drake lawsuit,

00:16:57.360 written all over it.

00:16:58.980 There's shit,

00:16:59.680 the I,

00:17:00.180 at the end of the day,

00:17:01.600 all this shit I'm saying,

00:17:03.020 Jim Jones,

00:17:03.600 Kendrick,

00:17:03.980 all these celebrities,

00:17:05.360 the funny thing is,

00:17:06.320 we're all in the same boat.

00:17:08.760 Yeah, so,

00:17:10.280 that's the first question

00:17:11.360 that came to mind.

00:17:12.120 Yeah, Kanye,

00:17:13.960 man,

00:17:14.340 looking at you,

00:17:15.040 he is DJ Academics here,

00:17:16.960 and my first question,

00:17:18.920 you know,

00:17:19.140 I'm looking at you here,

00:17:19.860 the first question is,

00:17:21.120 what's your favorite

00:17:21.940 Kendrick song?

00:17:23.340 You know?

00:17:24.780 Like,

00:17:25.400 what's the deal

00:17:26.340 with Justin Bieber,

00:17:27.220 you know?

00:17:27.760 I don't know,

00:17:28.300 that wouldn't be the first question

00:17:29.260 to come to my mind.

00:17:31.080 But,

00:17:31.760 it is kind of funny.

00:17:33.460 It's funny, man,

00:17:34.400 you know,

00:17:34.660 and it got attention,

00:17:35.720 and it's doing exactly

00:17:36.980 what Kanye West

00:17:38.200 wants it to do.

00:17:40.200 The problem,

00:17:41.380 however,

00:17:41.720 is that there's really

00:17:43.160 nowhere left

00:17:44.120 for this narrative to go.

00:17:45.960 Because,

00:17:46.540 as I've observed

00:17:47.340 for quite some time now,

00:17:49.980 Kanye West's

00:17:51.100 Nazi turn, 0.87

00:17:52.340 you know,

00:17:52.560 the swastika necklaces,

00:17:54.460 and going on

00:17:55.180 Alex Jones

00:17:56.380 and saying,

00:17:57.020 I love Hitler, 1.00

00:17:58.000 and, you know,

00:17:58.740 I love everyone,

00:17:59.440 but especially Hitler, 0.71

00:18:00.320 whatever it was

00:18:01.100 that he said,

00:18:02.540 was the

00:18:03.740 most provocative thing

00:18:05.820 that it is possible

00:18:06.740 to say

00:18:07.300 in our

00:18:08.300 modern culture.

00:18:09.480 Because all cultures

00:18:10.620 have a mythos

00:18:11.400 to them,

00:18:12.240 and

00:18:12.500 mythology

00:18:13.740 can be grounded

00:18:14.980 in reality,

00:18:16.180 or history,

00:18:17.060 rather,

00:18:17.420 you know,

00:18:17.600 hard facts

00:18:18.280 that actually happened

00:18:18.860 in time and space.

00:18:19.940 History can be grounded

00:18:21.080 in stories

00:18:22.340 of an ancient

00:18:23.480 bygone time.

00:18:24.480 It doesn't really matter.

00:18:26.700 There are myths

00:18:27.620 that are true,

00:18:28.740 there are myths

00:18:29.400 that are,

00:18:30.340 you know,

00:18:30.680 did not historically

00:18:31.680 take place,

00:18:32.340 but they get to

00:18:33.020 certain truths

00:18:33.520 about human nature.

00:18:34.640 But it doesn't

00:18:35.200 really matter.

00:18:35.920 In our culture,

00:18:37.080 in the post-war order,

00:18:38.460 there's a reason

00:18:38.960 we call our political

00:18:39.680 order the post-World War

00:18:41.100 II political order,

00:18:42.560 the mythos

00:18:45.140 that has defined it

00:18:46.220 is Hitler. 0.86

00:18:49.260 And so,

00:18:49.540 because it's liberalism,

00:18:50.500 because it has to

00:18:50.920 invert Christianity,

00:18:52.240 there's no incarnation

00:18:53.060 of absolute good,

00:18:54.040 with evil being

00:18:54.640 the privation of the good,

00:18:55.460 but it's the opposite.

00:18:56.160 There's the incarnation

00:18:56.660 of absolute evil,

00:18:57.420 which is Hitler,

00:18:58.300 and there are just

00:18:58.900 varying degrees

00:18:59.920 of privations

00:19:00.680 of evil

00:19:02.260 the further away

00:19:03.240 you get from being

00:19:03.940 a Nazi, 0.58

00:19:04.500 which is why

00:19:05.060 Nazi is the worst

00:19:06.080 thing you can be called.

00:19:07.260 The right calls

00:19:08.020 the left Nazis,

00:19:08.940 the left calls

00:19:09.440 the right Nazis, 0.93

00:19:10.660 whenever anyone

00:19:11.600 disagrees with anyone

00:19:12.540 about any matter,

00:19:13.420 including whether

00:19:14.020 you want milk

00:19:14.580 in your tea,

00:19:15.300 that you call

00:19:15.700 your opponent a Nazi. 0.72

00:19:17.660 So,

00:19:18.440 when Kanye

00:19:19.240 comes out,

00:19:20.880 what was that,

00:19:21.240 a year or two years ago?

00:19:22.400 He comes out

00:19:22.960 and he says,

00:19:23.460 I love Hitler, 1.00

00:19:24.520 and he goes,

00:19:25.080 full Nazi. 0.58

00:19:26.260 There is a reason

00:19:27.320 that he's still

00:19:28.160 doing the Nazi stuff 0.83

00:19:29.200 today,

00:19:29.820 and the reason is

00:19:30.820 there's nowhere else

00:19:32.880 to go in that narrative.

00:19:34.200 Once you say,

00:19:34.840 I love absolute evil,

00:19:35.860 there's nothing

00:19:36.340 more shocking to say.

00:19:38.560 You can kind of

00:19:39.300 edge up to,

00:19:40.380 I'm just trying to think

00:19:41.120 in right-wing politics,

00:19:42.300 maybe you say,

00:19:43.740 you know,

00:19:44.280 I don't think we should

00:19:45.220 trans the kids,

00:19:46.580 okay?

00:19:46.940 All right,

00:19:47.400 how do we be

00:19:47.920 more provocative?

00:19:48.680 I don't think

00:19:49.240 we should trans anybody,

00:19:50.640 how do we be

00:19:51.040 more provocative?

00:19:51.920 I don't think

00:19:52.680 we should celebrate pride,

00:19:55.400 how do we be

00:19:55.780 more provocative?

00:19:56.420 I don't think

00:19:57.080 that two fellas 1.00

00:19:57.620 can get married,

00:19:58.380 how can we be

00:19:59.000 more provocative?

00:19:59.840 I don't think

00:20:00.760 women can be 1.00

00:20:02.200 like men, 0.84

00:20:02.860 you know,

00:20:03.220 in feminism, 1.00

00:20:04.020 and how do you,

00:20:04.540 there are ways

00:20:05.940 to say things

00:20:07.280 that are more provocative.

00:20:08.580 Now,

00:20:08.780 all the things

00:20:09.320 I've just said

00:20:09.780 are true also,

00:20:10.960 but they are

00:20:13.440 increasingly offensive

00:20:15.140 to the modern sensibility,

00:20:17.280 the liberal ideology,

00:20:18.500 but there is simply

00:20:20.620 nothing more offensive

00:20:21.520 in our mythos

00:20:22.960 than I love Hitler 0.98

00:20:24.120 and I'm a Nazi

00:20:24.780 and I'm going to wear

00:20:25.580 Ku Klux Klan robes.

00:20:27.720 So,

00:20:28.000 what happens now?

00:20:30.060 There will have to be

00:20:31.220 some new mythos.

00:20:33.300 There's got to be

00:20:33.780 some new narrative.

00:20:35.720 You know,

00:20:35.880 even the hatred of Jews,

00:20:39.280 which has cropped up

00:20:40.220 on the far left

00:20:41.020 and on the far right

00:20:41.960 as well,

00:20:43.180 even that is going

00:20:44.840 to get tedious

00:20:45.420 after a while.

00:20:46.220 It's really shocking

00:20:46.900 and provocative

00:20:47.540 in the same way

00:20:48.460 that Kanye is saying

00:20:49.080 I love Hitler is. 0.99

00:20:50.460 But that will become

00:20:51.520 mundane as well.

00:20:52.660 That will just hit a wall 0.72

00:20:53.840 because there's nowhere

00:20:54.320 else to go.

00:20:56.080 Mr. Davies pointed out

00:20:57.240 to me yesterday,

00:20:57.860 he said,

00:20:58.600 this,

00:20:59.400 you know,

00:20:59.940 rising hatred

00:21:01.320 of the Jews,

00:21:02.640 it's kind of like,

00:21:03.720 it's kind of like

00:21:04.800 the new climate change,

00:21:06.200 you know,

00:21:07.240 which I guess makes sense

00:21:08.480 because they control

00:21:09.020 the weather,

00:21:09.420 of course.

00:21:09.960 But,

00:21:10.220 you know,

00:21:10.720 for a long time,

00:21:12.480 the left

00:21:13.040 and the squishes

00:21:13.720 on the right,

00:21:14.300 they would just

00:21:14.720 blame everything

00:21:15.260 on climate change.

00:21:17.180 You know,

00:21:17.560 rising prices,

00:21:19.300 mass migration,

00:21:21.120 everything,

00:21:21.720 it's just climate change.

00:21:23.560 Power outages,

00:21:24.800 wildfires,

00:21:25.980 burning down

00:21:26.440 their mismanaged cities,

00:21:27.320 it's all just climate change,

00:21:28.500 you know,

00:21:28.780 and so,

00:21:29.500 I guess the Jews 0.91

00:21:31.000 are kind of

00:21:31.420 the new climate change,

00:21:32.700 but really,

00:21:34.000 if you want to get down

00:21:35.360 to the ultimate

00:21:35.820 cause of our problems,

00:21:37.600 it's the personality

00:21:39.740 of evil

00:21:40.440 combined with

00:21:41.420 the human concupiscence

00:21:43.480 and original sin

00:21:44.360 that permits us

00:21:46.240 and inclines us

00:21:47.020 to cooperate with evil.

00:21:48.760 That's really what it does.

00:21:49.860 It's not quite as sexy.

00:21:52.100 So,

00:21:52.660 it's actually the sun monster

00:21:53.920 or it's this group

00:21:54.740 or it's that

00:21:55.100 or whatever,

00:21:55.440 it's racism

00:21:55.960 or sexism

00:21:56.660 or whatever,

00:21:57.220 but that's actually

00:21:57.980 what it is.

00:21:58.900 And so,

00:21:59.580 there will be

00:22:00.320 some new narrative

00:22:01.040 to emerge,

00:22:01.580 but until then,

00:22:03.100 this is Kanye's act.

00:22:04.620 Until there is

00:22:06.420 a pivot

00:22:07.460 in the self-understanding

00:22:09.400 of our polity.

00:22:11.200 I don't know

00:22:11.980 what's left to do.

00:22:13.820 It's just going to be

00:22:14.420 different iterations

00:22:17.080 of neo-Nazism.

00:22:18.320 Okay.

00:22:18.640 But now,

00:22:19.040 speaking of fascism,

00:22:21.140 on the left,

00:22:22.960 the libs are running

00:22:24.180 the same tune as well

00:22:25.240 and this has affected

00:22:26.900 even Yale University.

00:22:28.040 Where I am traveling

00:22:29.180 today,

00:22:30.300 if you happen to be

00:22:31.480 in New Haven

00:22:31.940 or around New Haven

00:22:33.220 or even if you're

00:22:34.120 in New York,

00:22:34.680 take that

00:22:35.080 Metro North train up

00:22:36.600 because I'm going to be

00:22:38.000 speaking at Yale

00:22:39.240 this evening.

00:22:40.580 My alma mater,

00:22:42.040 they've somehow

00:22:42.500 permitted me to return.

00:22:43.880 I'll be speaking

00:22:44.420 in the main lecture hall

00:22:45.480 there and I'll be

00:22:47.100 speaking there.

00:22:47.840 I will enter Yale

00:22:48.880 as a Yale professor

00:22:50.080 flees to Canada

00:22:52.160 because of fascism

00:22:54.580 in America.

00:22:55.740 There's so much more

00:22:56.320 to say.

00:22:56.600 First though,

00:22:57.260 go to rabbitair.com.

00:22:58.920 I love my rabbit air.

00:23:01.080 I've had a rabbit air

00:23:02.060 purifier in my office

00:23:03.760 for maybe years

00:23:04.980 at this point,

00:23:05.620 running almost 24-7.

00:23:06.820 I love it generally

00:23:08.220 because I live in Nashville

00:23:09.080 which is the allergen

00:23:11.200 capital of Earth

00:23:12.220 but I also love it

00:23:13.820 because you know

00:23:14.400 I like a cigar on occasion

00:23:15.960 and rabbit air is perfect.

00:23:17.880 If you want to have

00:23:18.360 those nice cigars indoors

00:23:19.580 but you don't want

00:23:20.480 your wife to complain 0.97

00:23:21.180 about it,

00:23:21.820 you need the rabbit air

00:23:23.140 A3 purifier.

00:23:25.500 Extremely impressive.

00:23:26.420 They've won awards

00:23:27.040 for their design

00:23:27.720 that uses six stages

00:23:28.700 of filtration

00:23:29.180 to clean your air.

00:23:30.320 It doesn't just catch

00:23:31.020 particles floating around,

00:23:32.420 it actually removes odors

00:23:33.540 and pollutants too

00:23:34.420 very quickly

00:23:35.000 so your home feels fresh.

00:23:37.240 The A3 purifier

00:23:38.080 is a game changer

00:23:38.960 with its dual hive

00:23:39.700 activated carbon filter

00:23:40.660 that boosts efficiency

00:23:41.580 by an impressive 26%.

00:23:43.560 Unlike the old 0.82

00:23:44.420 single layer design,

00:23:45.400 this one features

00:23:45.940 two offset layers

00:23:46.820 of optimized carbon pellets.

00:23:49.040 What does that mean for you?

00:23:49.940 More carbon surface area,

00:23:51.220 better air contact,

00:23:52.260 much stronger

00:23:52.820 odor removal capabilities.

00:23:54.220 I just love it.

00:23:55.080 If you're a cigar enthusiast

00:23:56.440 like me

00:23:56.920 looking for a next level

00:23:58.360 air purification,

00:23:59.600 this is the one to check out.

00:24:00.700 Also,

00:24:01.020 if you just talk

00:24:01.680 to the serious cigar guys,

00:24:02.660 this is the one

00:24:03.760 that they use.

00:24:04.640 Okay?

00:24:05.240 It's designed in LA,

00:24:06.040 comes with a comprehensive

00:24:06.760 five-year warranty

00:24:07.640 for peace of mind.

00:24:14.720 The Daily News,

00:24:17.100 this is a play on words,

00:24:18.380 it's N-O-U-S, 1.00

00:24:20.240 which is a Greek word

00:24:21.480 and a philosophical term

00:24:22.720 for intellect,

00:24:23.920 the intellectual part

00:24:24.700 of the spirit.

00:24:26.040 The Daily News

00:24:27.260 is reporting

00:24:28.120 in an email

00:24:30.160 this professor,

00:24:33.660 Jason Stanley,

00:24:35.060 is quitting Yale.

00:24:37.040 He writes,

00:24:37.940 quote,

00:24:38.340 the decision was entirely

00:24:39.480 because of the political climate

00:24:40.920 in the United States.

00:24:42.720 Stanley had an offer

00:24:43.700 from Toronto

00:24:44.700 and decided to accept it

00:24:46.680 last Friday night

00:24:48.280 after Columbia's capitulation

00:24:49.980 to the Trump administration's demands.

00:24:51.660 Now, okay,

00:24:52.200 remember this.

00:24:53.760 Jason Stanley says

00:24:54.780 he's fleeing

00:24:55.540 because he's fleeing

00:24:57.240 the Ivy League

00:24:58.000 to Canada

00:24:58.900 because of rising

00:25:00.660 Nazism 0.87

00:25:01.860 and fascism.

00:25:03.660 Okay.

00:25:05.180 What is one

00:25:06.320 of the most notable

00:25:07.320 endeavors

00:25:08.980 of the fascists

00:25:10.060 would be

00:25:11.180 to harass Jews?

00:25:14.360 Why is

00:25:15.300 the Trump administration

00:25:16.440 threatening

00:25:17.460 to withhold

00:25:17.940 federal funding

00:25:18.560 to Columbia?

00:25:19.840 Because

00:25:20.280 the Columbia administration

00:25:21.800 permitted

00:25:22.340 lots of agitators

00:25:23.780 and pro-Palestine protesters

00:25:25.100 to harass Jews.

00:25:28.120 So it's confusing.

00:25:30.480 The fascism,

00:25:31.460 the growing fascism

00:25:32.220 is a little bit confusing.

00:25:33.180 In fact,

00:25:33.760 just the leftist impulse

00:25:35.720 to call everything

00:25:36.320 you don't like fascist,

00:25:37.560 it's a little bit confusing.

00:25:39.000 But that's this guy's

00:25:39.840 whole shtick.

00:25:41.000 As far as I'm concerned,

00:25:42.020 he's more a journalist

00:25:42.780 than an actual scholar.

00:25:44.480 And his job

00:25:45.460 is to go on

00:25:46.120 left-wing TV channels

00:25:47.200 and say,

00:25:48.360 I'm, you know,

00:25:48.880 I'm a Yale professor.

00:25:50.120 And as a Yale professor,

00:25:51.860 I just want you to know

00:25:53.000 that Trump

00:25:53.460 is a big fascist.

00:25:54.900 And also,

00:25:55.620 the other Republicans

00:25:56.320 are big fascists.

00:25:57.680 And fascism

00:25:58.700 is on the rise.

00:25:59.820 And I'm a Yale professor.

00:26:00.700 It's kind of how

00:26:01.200 the left-wing news channels

00:26:02.360 bring on Bob Woodward,

00:26:04.020 who, as far as I can tell,

00:26:05.280 had one story

00:26:05.960 in his entire life.

00:26:06.700 And the story was,

00:26:08.080 it was given to him

00:26:08.880 by the deep state,

00:26:09.700 which was doing a coup

00:26:10.500 on Richard Nixon.

00:26:11.460 And he took down

00:26:12.380 Richard Nixon

00:26:12.980 with the Watergate scandal.

00:26:14.740 And then

00:26:15.160 Woodward

00:26:16.720 and Bernstein

00:26:17.980 would go on TV

00:26:19.380 for the next

00:26:20.080 40 years.

00:26:21.040 and their only job

00:26:22.580 is to go on and say,

00:26:23.300 this latest

00:26:24.520 Republican scandal,

00:26:25.580 it's the new Watergate.

00:26:27.300 Oh, why, yes.

00:26:28.360 All right,

00:26:28.660 we're joined right now

00:26:29.780 by Woodward and Bernstein

00:26:31.280 to explain

00:26:32.720 why whatever

00:26:33.500 the Republican

00:26:34.640 we least like right now,

00:26:36.560 why what he's doing

00:26:37.180 is the new Watergate.

00:26:38.360 It's worse than Watergate. 0.53

00:26:40.140 And so anyway,

00:26:40.520 that's what Jason Stanley does.

00:26:41.580 I don't think he contributed

00:26:42.340 anything to Yale

00:26:43.340 and,

00:26:44.500 or to America.

00:26:45.680 And now he's going

00:26:46.620 to Canada.

00:26:47.860 There's one last

00:26:48.760 little funny bit

00:26:49.700 of his fleeing

00:26:50.460 to Canada,

00:26:51.420 which is,

00:26:52.720 if he wants to flee

00:26:54.300 the increasingly

00:26:54.920 authoritarian kind

00:26:55.920 of government here,

00:26:56.780 Canada might not

00:26:57.620 be the best place.

00:26:59.040 Do you remember,

00:27:00.480 I'm no great historian

00:27:01.960 like those geniuses

00:27:02.980 at Yale,

00:27:03.500 but I remember

00:27:05.160 back in 2022,

00:27:06.840 there were these things

00:27:07.420 called the trucker

00:27:08.100 protests in Canada.

00:27:09.820 And there were

00:27:10.120 these truckers

00:27:10.720 who didn't want

00:27:11.220 to be forced

00:27:11.720 to inject

00:27:12.300 an experimental drug

00:27:13.620 into their veins,

00:27:14.420 a drug that we

00:27:15.160 have since found out

00:27:16.640 caused people to die

00:27:17.900 and was not necessary

00:27:19.600 for most people,

00:27:20.280 didn't do the things

00:27:21.180 that the scientists

00:27:22.880 and the public health

00:27:23.560 officials told us

00:27:24.220 that they would do.

00:27:25.600 All of this during COVID.

00:27:27.080 And so what did

00:27:27.600 the government

00:27:28.140 of Canada do?

00:27:29.380 Did they accept

00:27:30.080 the free expression,

00:27:31.080 you know,

00:27:31.300 bodily autonomy, man?

00:27:32.500 Let the truckers 1.00

00:27:33.080 do what they want.

00:27:33.660 No,

00:27:34.180 they actually

00:27:35.280 stole all their money,

00:27:37.100 froze their bank accounts

00:27:38.220 and arrested them

00:27:40.240 and continue to harass

00:27:42.840 these poor guys.

00:27:43.560 There was a

00:27:45.840 GoFundMe campaign

00:27:46.900 for the truckers.

00:27:48.200 Canada just like 0.75

00:27:48.740 took their money,

00:27:49.320 just took it.

00:27:49.760 I don't even know

00:27:50.100 what the legal predicate

00:27:51.200 for that was.

00:27:51.800 They just took it.

00:27:52.380 Doesn't matter.

00:27:52.880 Sovereign is he

00:27:53.400 who decides the exception.

00:27:56.540 So,

00:27:57.100 anyway,

00:27:59.400 Yale professor

00:27:59.960 fleeing the increasingly

00:28:01.700 authoritarian America

00:28:02.600 for Canada,

00:28:04.980 best known for

00:28:05.740 arbitrarily arresting

00:28:07.740 citizens,

00:28:08.260 stealing their money

00:28:08.800 and killing them too. 0.93

00:28:09.580 They also know

00:28:10.020 that the medical

00:28:10.880 assistance in dying law

00:28:12.080 is killing an increasing

00:28:13.400 number of Canadians.

00:28:14.580 So,

00:28:14.720 okay,

00:28:14.960 enjoy it.

00:28:15.600 Enjoy America's evil

00:28:16.340 top hat,

00:28:16.800 man.

00:28:17.680 We'll just be down here

00:28:18.680 with our rising fascism.

00:28:21.720 Now,

00:28:21.860 speaking of our national

00:28:22.580 neighbors turning from

00:28:23.300 the north down to the south,

00:28:26.100 LA Times has a great

00:28:27.140 story out right now.

00:28:30.620 Headline,

00:28:31.220 California-Mexico border

00:28:32.340 once overwhelmed,

00:28:35.140 now nearly empty.

00:28:38.520 That's really weird.

00:28:39.560 Just the first,

00:28:40.220 we'll read the whole article,

00:28:41.820 but first paragraph or two,

00:28:43.380 really great here.

00:28:44.860 With so few migrants 1.00

00:28:45.820 coming into the U.S.,

00:28:46.660 shelters that once

00:28:47.340 served migrants

00:28:48.000 have closed.

00:28:50.020 The border patrol

00:28:51.040 has been bolstered

00:28:51.900 by 750 U.S. military troops.

00:28:54.720 And in recent months,

00:28:55.480 six miles of border wall

00:28:56.560 have been outfitted

00:28:57.260 with concertina wire.

00:28:58.580 Okay,

00:28:58.740 so only six miles of border,

00:29:00.380 they've added a little bit

00:29:01.040 of wire to.

00:29:01.980 But they said

00:29:02.640 when the humanitarian aid workers

00:29:04.000 decided to dismantle

00:29:05.020 their elaborate tented setup,

00:29:06.420 erected right up

00:29:07.020 against the border wall,

00:29:08.140 they hadn't seen migrants

00:29:09.100 for a month.

00:29:09.680 So they're dismantling it,

00:29:11.140 not even because Trump

00:29:12.160 is pressuring them

00:29:13.180 to do so.

00:29:14.120 It's because there are

00:29:14.780 no migrants anymore. 0.85

00:29:16.660 Because Trump

00:29:17.280 is just enforcing the law.

00:29:19.720 So you remember

00:29:20.060 for six months,

00:29:21.060 the Democrats told us

00:29:22.060 that they needed

00:29:22.840 a new immigration law

00:29:24.280 passed by Republicans

00:29:26.440 in Congress,

00:29:27.760 allegedly being stymied

00:29:28.820 by phone calls

00:29:29.400 from President Trump.

00:29:30.100 They needed a new law

00:29:31.020 in order for Biden

00:29:31.900 to stop the mass migration

00:29:34.800 of foreigners 0.92

00:29:35.340 across our southern border.

00:29:36.640 And at the time,

00:29:37.240 I said it was ridiculous.

00:29:38.200 Republicans should

00:29:38.760 totally ignore that bill,

00:29:40.780 totally ignore

00:29:41.420 the Democrat demands

00:29:42.140 because the Democrats

00:29:44.200 had proven,

00:29:44.920 Joe Biden had proven

00:29:45.800 that he wasn't willing

00:29:46.460 to enforce the immigration

00:29:47.320 laws on the books.

00:29:48.180 So why would a new

00:29:49.540 immigration law

00:29:50.360 impel him to enforce the law?

00:29:51.920 No, all they wanted

00:29:52.600 was amnesty.

00:29:53.860 All they wanted

00:29:54.560 was an easier way

00:29:55.900 to bring in

00:29:56.920 all of those millions

00:29:57.600 of people.

00:29:58.040 And Trump has proven that.

00:29:59.880 Trump's been in office

00:30:00.680 for two months

00:30:01.500 and the illegal immigration

00:30:03.740 has stopped.

00:30:04.360 Now, Trump is also

00:30:05.440 deporting people.

00:30:06.440 We hope that the deportations

00:30:07.620 will increase in volume.

00:30:09.740 But at the very least,

00:30:11.180 there are no new people

00:30:11.960 coming in.

00:30:12.620 It's just done.

00:30:14.280 This proves,

00:30:15.600 beyond a shadow of a doubt,

00:30:17.080 that all of the various

00:30:18.740 border crises

00:30:19.820 in recent memory

00:30:22.000 were just Democrats

00:30:24.340 breaking the law.

00:30:26.860 That's it.

00:30:28.440 Every border crisis

00:30:29.660 has been contrived.

00:30:31.300 It's been manufactured.

00:30:32.440 All of the claims

00:30:33.840 that the Democrats make

00:30:34.940 that they can't stop

00:30:36.340 the influx of migrants

00:30:37.560 have been lies.

00:30:40.540 The entirety of mass migration 0.55

00:30:42.880 into this country

00:30:43.640 has occurred

00:30:45.260 primarily because

00:30:47.400 Democrats

00:30:48.700 just wanted to break the law.

00:30:52.200 That's it.

00:30:54.040 Not going to help the Democrats

00:30:55.740 at the ballot box

00:30:56.940 when they now see

00:30:58.420 so clearly

00:30:59.140 that one of the biggest issues

00:31:01.660 for Americans,

00:31:03.940 poll after poll,

00:31:04.760 now for something like

00:31:05.680 10 years or more,

00:31:07.500 that they have been

00:31:08.180 on the wrong side of it

00:31:09.000 and they've been deceitful

00:31:10.040 even about their position

00:31:11.620 on the wrong side of it.

00:31:12.500 So what are they going to do?

00:31:13.240 Are they just going to give up?

00:31:14.100 No, probably not.

00:31:15.500 Probably you're going to see

00:31:16.200 more pushback

00:31:17.320 from the liberal elite

00:31:18.200 in the institutions

00:31:19.080 that they still control.

00:31:20.440 The bureaucracy for now,

00:31:22.500 the judiciary for now.

00:31:25.000 Speaking of one weird trick

00:31:26.300 to improve things,

00:31:27.120 we turn from the Trump administration

00:31:29.180 to Major League Baseball

00:31:31.520 where the Yankees

00:31:32.940 just cannot stop

00:31:35.400 hitting home runs.

00:31:36.800 I'm a Yankee fan.

00:31:37.880 You know this.

00:31:39.220 It's the only sport

00:31:40.200 that I watch.

00:31:40.780 It's the only team

00:31:41.340 that I follow.

00:31:42.160 So I was watching

00:31:43.160 the Yankees-Brewers game

00:31:44.880 on Saturday.

00:31:45.860 The first three pitches

00:31:46.560 against actually

00:31:48.300 a recent New York Yankees pitcher,

00:31:50.260 Nestor Cortez,

00:31:50.980 but now he's on the Brewers.

00:31:52.180 First three pitches,

00:31:53.220 all home runs.

00:31:55.000 First three pitches of the game,

00:31:57.000 three hitters,

00:31:58.020 back-to-back-to-back,

00:31:59.060 all home runs.

00:32:00.060 What's going on here?

00:32:01.160 Well, the first two batters,

00:32:03.060 not Aaron Judge,

00:32:04.240 but the first two batters

00:32:05.360 were using a new kind of bat,

00:32:07.820 and they're calling it

00:32:08.660 the torpedo bat.

00:32:10.600 And the bat

00:32:12.000 kind of pairs down

00:32:14.020 at the end.

00:32:14.720 Instead of coming up

00:32:15.620 like a normal bat 0.73

00:32:16.340 where it gets wider

00:32:17.220 and wider and wider

00:32:17.980 and then kind of levels out

00:32:18.960 and remains the same,

00:32:19.980 it gets wider

00:32:20.760 and wider and wider

00:32:21.440 and then it kind of

00:32:22.480 comes back in a little bit

00:32:23.940 at the top

00:32:24.380 and it looks like a torpedo.

00:32:25.400 Now, Judge was using

00:32:27.060 the old-style bat,

00:32:27.840 so you can't chalk

00:32:28.500 his home run up to that,

00:32:29.420 but the Yankees just keep

00:32:30.500 just absolutely

00:32:31.440 blowing the ball

00:32:32.700 out of the park

00:32:33.200 and other teams

00:32:34.980 are upset about this.

00:32:36.740 They're complaining

00:32:37.660 that the New York Yankees

00:32:39.600 are using a new bat,

00:32:41.420 a new bat,

00:32:42.140 which even they will admit

00:32:42.980 breaks no rules

00:32:44.640 in Major League Baseball.

00:32:46.860 And this has a political lesson

00:32:48.520 for me.

00:32:48.960 And I'm glad

00:32:51.780 because I am actually

00:32:54.100 a supporter of the team

00:32:55.460 that is benefiting

00:32:56.140 from the new bats,

00:32:56.980 but I want this to apply

00:32:58.100 to my political team as well.

00:32:59.800 I want this to apply

00:33:00.540 to my political party.

00:33:01.740 I do not ever want

00:33:03.700 to be the political party

00:33:05.600 complaining about

00:33:06.680 the other guy

00:33:07.240 using the new bats.

00:33:09.320 I always,

00:33:10.600 100% of the time,

00:33:12.140 want to be the political party

00:33:13.540 that has the brilliant idea

00:33:15.420 and the discipline

00:33:16.320 and the follow-through

00:33:17.080 to use the new bats

00:33:18.820 that can be brought

00:33:20.820 into the game

00:33:21.560 and that can help

00:33:22.620 you win the game.

00:33:23.620 They don't break the rules.

00:33:25.420 They just play better.

00:33:28.000 Okay?

00:33:28.980 The libs right now

00:33:30.100 are complaining

00:33:31.620 about the new bats.

00:33:33.000 The libs right now

00:33:34.020 are complaining

00:33:34.560 that politics has changed

00:33:36.340 and Trump in America

00:33:38.020 and Brexit in the UK

00:33:41.160 and Maloney in Italy

00:33:42.540 and Orban in Hungary

00:33:44.980 and the Vox Party

00:33:46.040 to some degree in Spain

00:33:47.320 and Alternative for Deutschland

00:33:49.040 to some degree in Germany

00:33:50.260 and all of it

00:33:52.280 and the Front National

00:33:54.540 in France.

00:33:56.840 They've changed the game

00:33:57.800 a little bit.

00:33:58.920 Especially,

00:33:59.540 you see this with Trump.

00:34:00.460 Trump won

00:34:01.340 by assembling

00:34:02.120 a new coalition.

00:34:03.880 He did not appeal

00:34:04.740 necessarily

00:34:05.520 to rich Uncle Pennybags.

00:34:07.000 He did not appeal

00:34:07.960 to the country club set.

00:34:09.800 He did not,

00:34:10.560 he didn't just go

00:34:11.600 for the same old voters.

00:34:12.740 He messed up

00:34:15.120 all the political coalitions

00:34:16.100 and he took

00:34:16.460 one in five black guys

00:34:17.260 and almost half of Hispanics

00:34:18.400 and a lot of women 1.00

00:34:19.460 and a lot of blue-collar workers.

00:34:22.620 He really flipped the parties

00:34:23.700 so that the party

00:34:24.460 of limousines

00:34:25.120 and rich Uncle Pennybags

00:34:25.980 really is the Democrats now

00:34:27.320 and the party

00:34:27.980 of the working man

00:34:28.560 really is the Republicans.

00:34:29.620 That had not been the case

00:34:30.660 in my lifetime.

00:34:31.480 He just changed it.

00:34:32.620 I mean,

00:34:32.700 he just got a new bat.

00:34:35.320 And the libs are whining

00:34:36.460 and crying

00:34:36.980 and meanwhile,

00:34:37.820 Trump wins elections.

00:34:38.620 That's the party

00:34:40.500 I want to be.

00:34:41.720 That's the party

00:34:42.220 we are right now.

00:34:42.920 Let's not forget about it.

00:34:44.520 Let's keep cheering

00:34:45.160 on the New York Yankees

00:34:46.000 who I thought

00:34:46.340 we're going to have

00:34:46.700 a very bad season

00:34:47.420 but it looks like

00:34:47.900 they now will have

00:34:48.480 a good season.

00:35:22.060 My favorite comment

00:35:23.680 yesterday

00:35:24.300 is from

00:35:25.360 Karaze Pelham

00:35:28.080 7682

00:35:29.960 who says,

00:35:32.160 wonder when

00:35:33.140 they're going

00:35:33.720 to be disrespectful

00:35:34.560 to Muhammad.

00:35:35.560 Oh right,

00:35:35.960 they wouldn't dare.

00:35:36.600 this I think

00:35:37.660 in response

00:35:38.160 to the Satanists

00:35:39.400 who were

00:35:40.020 trying to desecrate

00:35:41.780 the Eucharist

00:35:42.600 allegedly

00:35:43.060 and do a black mass 0.72

00:35:44.680 in Kansas

00:35:45.760 yesterday.

00:35:48.140 We talked about it

00:35:49.080 yesterday on the show

00:35:49.920 but of course

00:35:50.700 this happened

00:35:51.080 a few days ago

00:35:51.680 and the Satanists

00:35:52.260 ended up getting arrested

00:35:53.100 and the Catholic hero

00:35:53.860 ended up consuming the host

00:35:54.780 and it was really,

00:35:55.460 really great.

00:35:56.320 Yeah,

00:35:56.520 when are they going

00:35:57.000 to do it?

00:35:58.560 They're going to try

00:35:59.200 to offend the Muslims.

00:36:00.220 They won't.

00:36:01.500 When are they going

00:36:02.000 to do the anti-Quaker service?

00:36:03.740 You're not going

00:36:04.120 to see that.

00:36:05.960 It's always

00:36:07.060 anti-Christian

00:36:08.580 and specifically

00:36:09.400 it's always anti-Catholic 0.98

00:36:10.440 and to me

00:36:12.220 that's a mark

00:36:14.060 in favor of the Catholics.

00:36:15.220 If you're on the fence

00:36:16.020 to me

00:36:16.460 that's a mark

00:36:16.860 in favor of the Catholics.

00:36:18.960 Now speaking of

00:36:20.320 games

00:36:22.500 and playing around

00:36:23.720 there's a report

00:36:24.860 out of the UK

00:36:25.680 a lot of problems

00:36:26.660 in the UK right now.

00:36:27.840 A toddler

00:36:28.360 was kicked out

00:36:29.500 of a nursery

00:36:30.020 in the UK

00:36:30.860 for being transphobic.

00:36:34.000 It's real.

00:36:35.220 It's according

00:36:35.640 to statistics

00:36:36.560 from the 2022

00:36:38.300 to 2023

00:36:39.160 academic year.

00:36:40.980 This is at a state school.

00:36:42.080 It's all available now

00:36:43.060 reported by the Telegraph

00:36:44.540 and the Daily Mail.

00:36:45.700 A toddler

00:36:46.580 was kicked out

00:36:47.540 of the nursery

00:36:48.060 after having been

00:36:49.420 accused of transphobia.

00:36:51.640 94 pupils

00:36:52.700 at similar

00:36:54.020 primary institutions

00:36:55.200 were suspended

00:36:56.320 or permanently

00:36:57.120 expelled

00:36:57.740 for transphobia

00:36:59.780 or homophobia.

00:37:00.580 We are talking

00:37:01.080 about kids

00:37:01.720 between the ages

00:37:03.320 of

00:37:03.780 what

00:37:05.060 three

00:37:06.740 three or four

00:37:08.320 and seven

00:37:09.020 using kids

00:37:10.700 down to nursery school

00:37:11.900 up to

00:37:13.660 second grade

00:37:14.900 kicked out

00:37:16.760 for homophobia

00:37:17.900 and transphobia

00:37:19.900 and

00:37:21.140 that should not

00:37:22.880 be surprising.

00:37:24.700 It kind of

00:37:25.460 drives me crazy

00:37:26.260 when I see

00:37:27.000 especially conservatives

00:37:27.820 they say

00:37:28.120 can you believe this?

00:37:29.240 can you believe

00:37:30.780 this is crazy?

00:37:32.300 How could they

00:37:33.120 go this far?

00:37:33.780 Of course I believe this.

00:37:35.300 This is the logical

00:37:36.040 conclusion

00:37:36.500 of the sexual revolution.

00:37:40.400 What is supposed

00:37:42.600 to be surprising?

00:37:43.260 That a kid

00:37:44.060 was kicked out

00:37:44.580 of school.

00:37:45.520 Kids get kicked

00:37:46.060 out of school.

00:37:46.640 Kids are suspended

00:37:47.260 and expelled

00:37:48.260 from schools.

00:37:49.480 So that shouldn't

00:37:50.320 be surprising.

00:37:51.920 What is surprising

00:37:52.960 is that it was

00:37:54.320 for transphobia

00:37:55.140 or homophobia

00:37:55.720 or whatever

00:37:56.140 but that shouldn't

00:37:56.820 be surprising either

00:37:57.500 because according

00:37:58.480 to the morality

00:37:59.360 constructed and

00:38:00.680 enforced by the left

00:38:01.920 the new official

00:38:03.420 morality which is

00:38:04.400 rather immoral

00:38:05.240 it's untethered

00:38:06.000 from the actual

00:38:07.080 objective moral order

00:38:08.020 but it's still

00:38:08.560 a kind of a morality

00:38:10.120 that is enforced

00:38:10.940 then some of the

00:38:12.340 worst sins in the world

00:38:13.260 are homophobia

00:38:13.840 and transphobia.

00:38:14.760 You know it

00:38:15.060 wouldn't be surprising

00:38:16.040 if a kid

00:38:17.980 got kicked out

00:38:18.660 of the second grade

00:38:19.400 for stealing

00:38:20.000 or at least

00:38:21.300 suspended.

00:38:22.240 Wouldn't be surprising

00:38:23.160 if a kid got kicked

00:38:24.120 out of kindergarten

00:38:24.740 or at least suspended

00:38:25.500 for lying

00:38:26.220 to his teacher

00:38:27.300 or to other students

00:38:28.180 wouldn't be surprising

00:38:29.240 if a kid got

00:38:30.020 expelled

00:38:31.160 for becoming

00:38:32.540 really violent

00:38:33.220 with some other student

00:38:34.220 even down to the

00:38:35.280 nursery school age

00:38:36.480 biting a student

00:38:38.420 or I don't know

00:38:38.780 bringing a weapon

00:38:39.400 to the school

00:38:40.480 or something

00:38:40.980 that wouldn't be surprising.

00:38:43.280 So in a

00:38:44.160 traditional

00:38:44.880 society

00:38:46.320 in a normal society

00:38:47.440 those are the kinds

00:38:48.660 of things you'd be

00:38:49.140 punished for

00:38:49.520 stealing

00:38:49.980 lying

00:38:51.680 committing

00:38:53.020 violence

00:38:54.260 but in our

00:38:55.620 ridiculous

00:38:56.120 modern liberal

00:38:57.340 society

00:38:57.860 those

00:38:58.780 actual sins

00:38:59.740 are replaced

00:39:00.700 by fake sins

00:39:01.680 like homophobia

00:39:02.520 and transphobia.

00:39:04.260 So yeah

00:39:04.800 this should be

00:39:05.800 totally expected.

00:39:07.600 Kind of like

00:39:08.480 the two-tier system

00:39:09.180 of justice

00:39:09.560 in the UK.

00:39:11.380 If you insist

00:39:12.600 upon diversity

00:39:13.300 and equity

00:39:13.660 and inclusion

00:39:14.160 and artificially

00:39:14.900 boosting certain

00:39:15.520 groups

00:39:15.880 and artificially

00:39:17.340 well

00:39:17.680 even if you

00:39:18.540 just engage

00:39:19.780 the former

00:39:20.480 you're going

00:39:21.380 to necessarily

00:39:22.180 have to

00:39:22.900 suppress

00:39:23.360 artificially

00:39:24.220 other groups.

00:39:25.720 Same thing here.

00:39:27.560 No surprise at all.

00:39:28.560 So if you don't

00:39:29.140 like that

00:39:29.620 then you gotta

00:39:30.020 it can't just be

00:39:30.920 you know

00:39:31.720 oh well

00:39:32.060 this is crazy

00:39:32.740 kids shouldn't 1.00

00:39:33.600 have to deal

00:39:33.900 with this

00:39:34.180 until they

00:39:34.480 reach the

00:39:34.740 fifth grade.

00:39:35.160 No

00:39:35.240 the reason

00:39:36.340 it's wrong

00:39:36.940 is because

00:39:37.440 transphobia

00:39:38.780 is a ridiculous

00:39:39.360 concept

00:39:39.900 because

00:39:40.160 transgenderism

00:39:40.920 is a ridiculous

00:39:41.500 concept

00:39:42.060 because it's

00:39:42.640 a false

00:39:42.940 anthropology.

00:39:45.000 So

00:39:45.440 just forget

00:39:46.660 about it.

00:39:48.380 Stop thinking

00:39:49.100 about transphobia

00:39:49.580 it's not

00:39:49.860 the sort of thing

00:39:50.960 that anyone

00:39:51.280 should be punished

00:39:51.860 for.

00:39:52.820 Homophobia

00:39:53.220 what does

00:39:53.520 that mean?

00:39:54.760 Viewing

00:39:55.200 aberrant

00:39:56.140 sexual acts

00:39:56.740 with moral

00:39:57.080 opprobrium

00:39:57.580 that's

00:39:57.960 what's wrong

00:39:58.800 with that?

00:39:59.600 Not saying

00:40:00.160 you should be

00:40:00.560 cruel to people

00:40:01.100 or anything

00:40:01.460 but to have

00:40:02.260 that view

00:40:02.820 what's wrong

00:40:03.280 with that?

00:40:03.860 Nothing.

00:40:05.620 But that

00:40:06.000 means you

00:40:06.360 need to

00:40:06.600 reset the

00:40:07.060 moral order.

00:40:07.540 That means

00:40:08.020 in other

00:40:08.800 words

00:40:09.040 a change

00:40:10.340 in regime

00:40:10.840 a restoration

00:40:11.540 to a more

00:40:12.420 sane kind

00:40:13.080 of sovereign

00:40:13.520 and the

00:40:14.440 people who

00:40:14.780 are actually

00:40:15.200 in power

00:40:15.480 are not

00:40:15.700 going to

00:40:15.860 give that

00:40:16.100 up so

00:40:16.380 quickly.

00:40:18.000 This

00:40:18.320 comes down

00:40:19.060 ultimately

00:40:19.640 not just

00:40:20.200 to morality

00:40:20.800 and culture

00:40:21.520 but to a

00:40:22.340 kind of

00:40:22.540 spiritual

00:40:22.860 warfare.

00:40:23.940 As the White 0.98

00:40:24.400 House Press

00:40:24.740 Secretary

00:40:25.020 Caroline Levitt

00:40:25.840 just explained

00:40:26.660 to CBN News.

00:40:27.940 It's warfare

00:40:28.820 out there.

00:40:30.320 In Christian

00:40:31.340 terms people

00:40:32.000 will call

00:40:32.560 what's happening

00:40:33.220 in our country

00:40:33.660 today spiritual

00:40:34.400 warfare.

00:40:34.720 Do you see

00:40:35.460 do you see it

00:40:35.620 in those terms

00:40:36.200 kind of good

00:40:36.680 versus evil

00:40:37.200 out there

00:40:37.720 in that context?

00:40:39.240 How do you

00:40:39.500 see that?

00:40:40.140 I certainly

00:40:40.720 believe in

00:40:42.640 spiritual warfare

00:40:43.440 and I think

00:40:44.220 I saw it

00:40:45.840 firsthand

00:40:46.180 especially

00:40:46.640 throughout the

00:40:47.200 campaign trail

00:40:47.800 with President

00:40:48.320 Trump.

00:40:49.180 And I think

00:40:49.640 there certainly

00:40:50.140 were evil

00:40:50.740 forces

00:40:51.180 and I think

00:40:52.860 that the

00:40:53.320 president

00:40:53.660 was saved

00:40:55.000 by the grace

00:40:55.560 of God

00:40:55.980 on July 13th

00:40:57.380 in Butler,

00:40:57.840 Pennsylvania

00:40:58.300 and he's

00:40:58.940 in this moment

00:40:59.620 for a reason.

00:41:00.300 We're all here

00:41:00.820 for a reason

00:41:01.520 and I think

00:41:02.860 it's a miraculous

00:41:04.060 thing that has

00:41:04.700 taken place

00:41:05.180 in our country.

00:41:06.400 Okay,

00:41:06.720 so obviously

00:41:07.340 all of that's true

00:41:08.180 and it raised

00:41:08.920 all sorts

00:41:09.580 of liberal eyebrows.

00:41:10.840 Oh,

00:41:11.040 this woman's 0.73

00:41:11.580 going off

00:41:12.140 about spiritual

00:41:13.940 warfare.

00:41:14.620 Oh,

00:41:14.860 goodness,

00:41:15.260 this has become

00:41:15.860 a cult.

00:41:16.480 This is superstitious. 0.83

00:41:17.640 This is what,

00:41:18.080 you know,

00:41:18.420 all the stuff

00:41:18.860 that Reddit

00:41:19.460 tier atheist

00:41:20.140 libs usually say.

00:41:21.520 But,

00:41:22.320 you know,

00:41:23.240 to deny

00:41:23.740 spiritual warfare,

00:41:25.440 that means

00:41:26.440 you would have

00:41:26.980 to deny

00:41:27.660 the reality

00:41:29.240 of evil

00:41:29.980 on the one hand

00:41:31.180 and free will

00:41:31.740 on the other.

00:41:33.620 To really think

00:41:34.780 the language

00:41:35.360 that Caroline Leavitt, 0.88

00:41:37.360 the spokesman

00:41:37.940 for the Trump

00:41:38.300 White House,

00:41:38.820 is using

00:41:39.560 as crazy

00:41:40.260 or something,

00:41:41.700 even if you're

00:41:42.300 some atheist

00:41:43.020 or agnostic

00:41:43.720 or lib

00:41:44.120 or whatever,

00:41:45.060 in order to

00:41:46.420 really object

00:41:47.360 to this language,

00:41:48.100 you would have

00:41:48.680 to deny

00:41:49.240 that there is

00:41:49.820 such a thing

00:41:50.280 as evil

00:41:50.760 and I don't

00:41:51.820 think they

00:41:52.120 would deny

00:41:52.500 that.

00:41:54.320 Now,

00:41:54.760 when they call

00:41:55.120 everyone a Nazi,

00:41:55.980 what they're saying

00:41:56.580 is you're evil, 0.95

00:41:57.500 you know,

00:41:57.660 so they wouldn't

00:41:58.120 deny that

00:41:58.680 and

00:41:59.680 I don't

00:42:01.720 think,

00:42:02.060 do they deny

00:42:02.520 free will?

00:42:03.120 They might

00:42:03.380 deny free will

00:42:04.080 in the abstract.

00:42:04.940 They might say

00:42:05.300 they're determinists

00:42:06.320 and they don't

00:42:06.820 really,

00:42:07.060 but they behave

00:42:08.360 as though free will

00:42:09.000 exists.

00:42:09.700 Like,

00:42:09.860 for instance,

00:42:10.600 if I started

00:42:12.080 punching them

00:42:12.560 in the face,

00:42:13.040 they'd tell me

00:42:13.400 to stop

00:42:13.920 or they'd hold

00:42:14.800 me responsible

00:42:15.420 in a court of law

00:42:16.180 or something

00:42:16.480 for what I did.

00:42:17.200 So they would,

00:42:17.860 in other words,

00:42:19.060 hold me accountable

00:42:19.940 for using

00:42:20.980 my free will

00:42:22.960 in an abusive way.

00:42:25.020 So,

00:42:25.460 okay,

00:42:25.600 if you believe

00:42:26.000 in evil

00:42:26.360 and free will,

00:42:26.860 you believe

00:42:27.160 in spiritual warfare.

00:42:27.860 That's all it is.

00:42:31.100 That's all that is.

00:42:32.540 Now,

00:42:33.340 one last story

00:42:33.880 in the Trump admin

00:42:34.400 that I've been trying

00:42:34.880 to get to for a couple days

00:42:35.720 and I don't want to move

00:42:36.920 on too quickly from it.

00:42:38.340 You remember Signalgate

00:42:39.620 last week

00:42:40.200 when Mike Waltz,

00:42:42.760 the national security director,

00:42:44.400 added

00:42:44.880 Jeffrey Goldberg,

00:42:47.100 the head of the Atlantic,

00:42:49.000 the editor for this

00:42:49.700 liberal magazine,

00:42:50.580 to a group chat

00:42:51.400 with Pete Hegseth,

00:42:53.100 Secretary of Defense,

00:42:54.420 with the head

00:42:55.000 of the CIA

00:42:55.660 with all sorts

00:42:57.300 of top administration

00:42:58.120 officials.

00:42:59.660 And they were discussing

00:43:00.980 the Houthi bombing

00:43:01.780 and then Goldberg

00:43:02.700 wrote this Atlantic article,

00:43:03.660 the Trump admin

00:43:04.260 texted me their war plans.

00:43:06.440 Trump was asked about this,

00:43:07.700 he finally made a comment

00:43:08.680 about it,

00:43:09.400 and his comment

00:43:10.360 tells you a lot

00:43:11.800 about his approach

00:43:13.300 and how he views politics.

00:43:14.920 We have an amazing group.

00:43:17.460 Our national security

00:43:18.600 now is stronger

00:43:19.420 than it's ever been.

00:43:20.480 There was no classified

00:43:21.700 information,

00:43:22.600 as I understand it.

00:43:24.080 They used a app,

00:43:28.180 if you want to call it an app,

00:43:29.740 that a lot of people use,

00:43:30.900 a lot of people in government

00:43:31.900 use, a lot of people

00:43:32.860 in the media use.

00:43:34.260 But the main thing

00:43:35.740 was nothing happened.

00:43:37.320 The attack

00:43:37.860 was totally successful.

00:43:39.880 It was, I guess,

00:43:41.260 from what I understand,

00:43:42.580 took place during,

00:43:43.480 and it wasn't

00:43:45.060 classified information.

00:43:46.420 So this was not classified.

00:43:47.760 Now, if it's classified

00:43:48.580 information,

00:43:49.440 it's probably

00:43:50.300 a little bit different.

00:43:51.400 But I always say

00:43:52.440 you have to learn

00:43:53.480 from every experience.

00:43:54.600 I think it was very unfair

00:43:55.620 the way they attacked Michael.

00:43:58.400 He's a good person.

00:44:01.220 There is Michael,

00:44:01.980 there is talking

00:44:02.260 about Michael Waltz.

00:44:03.220 And Trump makes a point

00:44:04.660 to say that it was a staffer.

00:44:07.100 You know,

00:44:07.280 it was a staffer

00:44:07.920 for Michael Waltz,

00:44:09.380 added this person in,

00:44:10.640 and so, you know,

00:44:11.260 it's no good.

00:44:11.660 Now, I've paid attention

00:44:14.260 to politics long enough.

00:44:15.720 I've been around D.C.

00:44:16.620 enough time to know

00:44:17.580 that blame it on the staffer. 0.99

00:44:20.400 There's not always

00:44:20.960 a real staffer there, okay?

00:44:22.560 But what blame it

00:44:23.600 on the staffer means

00:44:24.660 is that

00:44:25.300 the National Security Advisor,

00:44:28.080 Michael Waltz,

00:44:28.660 still has Trump support.

00:44:31.040 That's what Trump

00:44:31.780 is signaling here.

00:44:33.340 Blame it on the staffer

00:44:34.180 just means

00:44:34.660 I'm still backing

00:44:35.440 Mike Waltz.

00:44:36.860 I'm not throwing

00:44:37.700 my guy under the bus.

00:44:38.580 We have yet to see

00:44:39.600 a Trump administration staffer

00:44:41.920 really get tossed

00:44:42.800 under the bus.

00:44:44.700 The Trump admin

00:44:45.980 remains tight,

00:44:47.800 loyal,

00:44:49.060 moving forward.

00:44:51.460 Almost as though

00:44:52.560 President Trump

00:44:53.240 recognizes that politics

00:44:54.420 does largely boil down

00:44:55.600 to friends versus enemies.

00:44:57.640 And he's made

00:44:58.380 a conscious decision

00:45:00.040 of who his friends

00:45:00.720 are going to be here.

00:45:01.780 And he knows

00:45:02.620 that that's how

00:45:03.480 the left views politics.

00:45:04.560 The left would never break,

00:45:06.180 would never throw

00:45:06.900 one of their guys

00:45:07.420 under the bus

00:45:07.980 in this kind

00:45:08.900 of a situation.

00:45:10.520 So he recognizes,

00:45:11.800 okay,

00:45:12.000 it's a team sport

00:45:12.800 and right now

00:45:13.440 our team's winning

00:45:14.160 and so I'm not

00:45:15.380 going to be sidetracked.

00:45:16.640 I'm not going to be

00:45:17.440 held to principles

00:45:18.300 by the left

00:45:18.980 that the left

00:45:19.480 doesn't even believe in

00:45:20.540 and that are morally

00:45:21.480 dubious anyway.

00:45:22.800 Full steam ahead.

00:45:25.160 So now we look forward

00:45:26.080 to,

00:45:26.480 just a little preview

00:45:27.020 for tomorrow,

00:45:32.040 when global trade

00:45:33.160 as we know it

00:45:33.660 could come to an end.

00:45:35.260 Buckle up. 0.96
