00:02:18.780 The tragic shooting of two National Guardsmen,
00:02:21.540 a Somali terror-funding fraud scandal by an allegedly retarded governor, 0.96
00:02:26.600 and Democrat tears over the deaths of narco-terrorists have combined over Thanksgiving weekend
00:02:32.600 to make Americans reconsider mass migration and who we want to be. 0.85
00:02:38.320 Are we the nation of the Muslim pirate ship? 1.00
00:02:41.580 Are we the nation of the Venezuelan drug boat? 0.89
00:02:45.020 Or are we still the nation of the Mayflower?
00:02:48.200 I'm Michael Knowles.
00:02:48.900 This is The Michael Knowles Show.
00:03:09.120 Welcome back to the show.
00:03:10.420 Wonderful to be back with all of you.
00:03:11.880 I hope you all had a very good Thanksgiving.
00:03:14.900 So much to catch up on.
00:03:16.520 I'll try to speak at a much faster pace today.
00:03:19.700 Maybe I'll try to channel a Shapiro-esque pace today.
00:03:23.360 There was a very prominent liberal commentator, Wajahat Ali,
00:03:27.420 who went on this terribly anti-white diatribe about mass migration.
00:03:32.560 And his parents are from Pakistan.
00:03:34.020 And he accidentally, I think, kind of proved a lot of the immigration restrictionists' arguments.
00:03:39.020 So we'll get to that momentarily first, though.
00:03:41.400 I want to tell you about Mizzen and Main.

00:03:48.180 well, most dress clothes only deliver on half.
00:03:50.740 Yeah, they look sharp, but they're uncomfortable and they're high maintenance.
00:03:53.260 That is one of the many reasons I love our sponsor, Mizzen and Main.

00:04:27.120 And what I like about them, too, is you have multiple seasons.

00:05:01.940 Biggest story, brutal, brutal start to Thanksgiving.
00:05:07.300 The day before Thanksgiving, an Afghan refugee, so-called an Afghan who was brought into the United States under Joe Biden's disastrous immigration policy,
00:05:18.960 specifically from Afghanistan, to cover up for his particularly disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
00:05:26.020 An Afghan murdered two National Guardsmen. 0.99
00:05:30.200 Not just two National Guardsmen.
00:05:31.940 A National Guardsman and a National Guardswoman, and a young woman in particular.
00:05:36.700 Sarah Beckstrom, just 20 years old, 20 years old, signs up to support her country, defend her country, is stationed in Washington, D.C.
00:05:47.380 Because Democrat cities have allowed the political order to get so dangerous, so out of control, that the National Guard has had to be called in.
00:05:55.840 And this Afghan now proving the point. 1.00
00:05:59.380 She was shot.
00:06:00.620 She ended up dying.
00:06:01.760 Andrew Wolfe, last I checked, is in critical condition.
00:06:04.560 But he was shot multiple times.
00:06:06.160 24-year-old guy.
00:06:07.920 Shot by some guy named Ramalala, whatever.
00:06:11.000 I'm not going to say his full name.
00:06:13.280 I don't know that I could actually pronounce his full name.
00:06:16.020 He was shot four times after he shot the Guardsmen.
00:06:22.520 Sadly enough, he's still alive.
00:06:24.660 He's 29 years old.
00:06:26.040 He's not cooperating with authorities.
00:06:27.980 He came to the U.S. in September of 2021 under a program for Afghans called Operation Allies Welcome.
00:06:36.680 These are the allies that Biden brought in.
00:06:40.580 The allies, the oppressed, the refugees.
00:06:44.160 Our strength, isn't that what we're supposed to call this?
00:06:46.380 It's our strength.
00:06:47.220 Diversity, of course, is our strength.
00:06:48.620 So Biden imports our strength and all the cultural enrichment from the narco states and the terrorist hellholes. 0.99
00:06:57.640 And he brings in our allies who are welcome.
00:07:00.960 And what do they do?
00:07:01.980 They kill young Americans the day before Thanksgiving.
00:07:04.200 According to the Congressional Research Service, 77,000 Afghans entered the U.S. under this Joe Biden program, which was in place for a year after U.S. withdrawal.
00:07:14.720 And this guy who shot the Guardsmen is not the sole case here of these Afghans committing crimes or even attempting to kill people and commit terror actions. 0.86
00:07:23.240 There are a litany of examples of this, which we'll get to in a moment.
00:07:27.520 Why was the guy let in in the first place?
00:07:29.000 Apparently, he worked with the CIA in Afghanistan.
00:07:30.880 And a lot of these guys, they maybe helped out the U.S. in some way during our 20-year occupation of Afghanistan.
00:07:37.320 And then we say, okay, we're going to let them all in.
00:07:39.600 And they've all been properly vetted, supposedly.
00:07:42.740 Not only did Democrats immediately respond by defending the Biden era program, by defending the indefensible.
00:07:51.300 MSNBC yet again responded to this tragic murder by immediately, as it was happening, by attempting to justify it.
00:08:04.860 But of course, there's so much controversy happening in the United States right now with ICE, who are also wearing uniforms and wearing masks.
00:08:14.280 And so there's, you don't know, people walking around with uniforms in an American city, there are some Americans that might object to that.
00:08:26.080 And so apparently this shooting has happened.
00:08:31.340 There are people, so report, at least one National Guardsman shot.
00:08:36.460 Let's bring up the clip again.
00:08:37.520 Where is that?
00:08:38.120 Secret Service, at least one National Guardsman shot in D.C.
00:08:40.880 It ended up being torn.
00:08:41.620 As this is happening, the MSNBC, now they call it MSNOW because MSNBC's brand was so toxic.
00:08:48.840 I guess they had to rebrand.
00:08:50.740 But it's MSNBC.
00:08:52.380 It says, well, people are walking around in uniforms.
00:08:56.480 And some people object to that.
00:08:59.480 So anyway, this has happened.
00:09:02.580 If you're having deja vu, this is because this is exactly the way that MSNBC responded when Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
00:09:08.580 As the scene was unfolding, right after Charlie had been shot by a deranged leftist, MSNBC responded.
00:09:18.860 It was Matthew Dowd, a Democrat analyst on MSNBC, said, well, you know, this is what happens when you spread hate.
00:09:26.360 Hate breeds more hate, doesn't it?
00:09:28.140 Charlie was asking for it, is basically what he was saying.
00:09:30.260 It was so heinous then.
00:09:33.800 There was actually some public backlash.
00:09:36.400 And yet MSNBC learns nothing.
00:09:37.960 A National Guardsman shot by an Afghan terrorist.
00:09:40.640 And MSNBC says, well, you know, that's what those National Guardsmen get for wearing their uniforms on the street.
00:09:46.760 What are National Guardsmen doing in the nation's capital?
00:09:49.240 I mean, what are they even doing?
00:09:50.200 They don't belong there.
00:09:50.940 They're the National Guard.
00:09:51.740 Why would they be in the nation's capital?
00:09:52.900 I mean, that's what happens when you have law enforcement, when you have military personnel in a country.
00:09:58.860 You know, it's like if they didn't want to get shot, they probably shouldn't have served in the military.
00:10:02.700 They probably shouldn't serve in law enforcement.
00:10:06.180 That's what MSNBC is arguing.
00:10:07.940 That's where the Democrats are at on this.
00:10:10.560 So MSNBC quickly moves to justify it.
00:10:13.680 We then get, thanks to PBS, an actual earnest instantiation on one of the funnier Norm MacDonald bits.
00:10:21.360 Norm being the greatest comedian probably ever, but certainly of any of our lifetimes.
00:10:26.160 Norm MacDonald had a zillion funny bits. 0.98
00:10:28.520 But one of them was, this long bit, he said, my greatest fear is that a Muslim terrorist would get hold of a dirty bomb detonated over a major city, 0.99
00:10:35.820 killing tens of millions of people, because then the backlash against peaceful Muslims would be terrible. 0.99
00:10:41.960 And his guest on his show, she couldn't laugh at it. 0.99
00:10:46.620 She couldn't bring herself.
00:10:47.380 She had to take it earnestly.
00:10:48.740 Well, PBS, just doing the bit.
00:10:51.180 This is an actual headline, November 28th.
00:10:53.940 Right after two National Guardsmen shot, one is killed, the other might die by an Afghan terrorist.
00:11:01.240 Refugee groups worry about backlash after National Guard shooting.
00:11:07.480 That's really interesting.
00:11:08.620 Refugee groups worry about backlash against Muslim migrants. 0.98
00:11:17.960 I am more worried about the Americans that these supposed refugees are murdering. 1.00
00:11:24.460 So I guess we're different.
00:11:25.520 I guess that makes us different.
00:11:26.500 The refugee groups, the open borders groups, the pro-Muslim groups, those groups are really concerned.
00:11:33.960 The second that a 20-year-old woman who serves in the National Guard is murdered by an Afghan Muslim terrorist the day before Thanksgiving,
00:11:41.060 their first thought is, gosh, the backlash against Afghanis is going to be terrible. 0.97
00:11:46.980 But I guess my concern, I guess we're different because my concern is for the Americans that the so-called refugees are murdering. 1.00
00:11:53.840 So that makes us different, and we have different priorities.
00:11:56.420 And I guess that makes us different from PBS.
00:12:00.560 I guess that makes us different from MSNBC.
00:12:03.740 I guess that just makes us pretty different.
00:12:05.560 What the liberal media, I mean, these are two indefensible reactions.
00:12:12.480 Yeah, the guardsmen were asking.
00:12:13.580 The young National Guards woman was asking for it because she wore a uniform. 1.00
00:12:18.020 Or, well, the only thing that matters is the refugees. 0.99
00:12:21.300 All that matters are the Afghan Muslim terrorists. 1.00
00:12:23.780 Americans have no rights whatsoever, and they don't have any right or privilege to be protected in their own country. 1.00
00:12:29.600 Those reactions are totally indefensible.
00:12:31.580 The next reaction that you're going to hear, the most reasonable reaction you're going to hear from the left,
00:12:35.820 is that this sort of thing just happens every once in a while.
00:12:40.220 It's a needle in a haystack.
00:12:41.380 Nobody could have possibly seen it coming.
00:12:43.080 No one could have known.
00:12:44.920 Yes, bad things happen.
00:12:46.460 But come on, these refugees, they were vetted.
00:12:49.940 They're peaceful.
00:12:51.260 This sort of thing doesn't happen.
00:12:53.260 Come on, who could have called it?
00:12:54.420 Mr. Vice President, I'm not speaking to, I don't have J.D. Vance on the line right now.
00:13:00.960 In fact, I'm pulling up a clip of J.D. Vance from about 11 months ago.
00:13:06.500 Here's J.D. Vance in January of this year.
00:13:09.300 Mr. Vice President, could you predict it?
00:13:12.320 When you talked to us in August, you said,
00:13:15.120 I don't think we should abandon anybody who's been properly vetted and helped us.
00:13:18.780 Do you stand by that?
00:13:19.640 Well, Margaret, I don't agree that all these immigrants or all these refugees have been properly vetted. 1.00
00:13:24.020 In fact, we know that there are cases of people who allegedly were properly vetted
00:13:28.920 and then were literally planning terrorist attacks on our country.
00:13:32.080 That happened during the campaign, if you may remember.
00:13:34.500 So clearly not all of these foreign nationals have been properly vetted.
00:13:36.500 No, but there are 30,000 people in the pipeline, Afghan refugees.
00:13:39.900 But my primary concern as the Vice President, Margaret, is to look after the American people.
00:13:44.940 And now that we know that we have vetting problems with a lot of these refugee programs, 1.00
00:13:48.840 we absolutely cannot unleash thousands of unvetted people into our country. 1.00
00:13:53.960 These people are vetted.
00:13:55.180 These people are vetted.
00:13:56.040 Just like the guy who planned a terrorist attack in Oklahoma a few months ago.
00:13:59.060 He was allegedly properly vetted.
00:14:00.880 And many people in the media and the Democratic Party said that he was properly vetted.
00:14:05.000 Clearly he wasn't.
00:14:06.220 I don't want my children to share a neighborhood with people who are not properly vetted.
00:14:11.000 And because I don't want it for my kids,
00:14:12.780 I'm not going to force any other American citizens' kids to do that either.
00:14:15.800 No, and that was a very particular case.
00:14:18.040 It wasn't clear if he was radicalized when he got here or while he was living there.
00:14:21.840 I don't really care, Margaret.
00:14:22.860 I don't want that person in my country.
00:14:24.720 And I think most Americans agree with me.
00:14:26.760 I don't really care, Margaret.
00:14:28.380 That clip, that exchange, which took place almost a year ago, went viral because of that line.
00:14:36.760 Because of, was it Margaret Brennan, whoever the interviewer is,
00:14:40.380 her reaction to say, well, look, that was one particular, okay,
00:14:44.940 so like one of these Afghanis that we were told was properly vetted by Joe Biden.
00:14:48.720 Yeah, okay, he tried to do a terrorist attack.
00:14:50.720 But, you know, that was a very particular case.
00:14:52.920 And he might have been radicalized when he got here by all of that Wahhabism in America or whatever. 0.99
00:15:00.000 Raises another question of how he could be radicalized when he got here,
00:15:02.500 but that's a topic for another time.
00:15:04.340 And maybe that was, you know, I mean, come on.
00:15:05.840 And I mean, but, but, but, but, but, and J.D. Vance cuts her off and says, yeah, I don't care.
00:15:12.180 I don't really care, Margaret.
00:15:13.760 I don't want these people here.
00:15:15.580 And this brings us to the central issue.
00:15:18.980 I don't really care, Margaret.
00:15:20.460 I don't want these people here.
00:15:22.140 If there is even a very, very minor chance that one or several of the Afghanis that we are importing on, 1.00
00:15:32.240 on mass, obviously without proper vetting, is going to kill Americans or rape Americans or rob Americans. 0.98
00:15:40.700 We can get to those examples in a little bit.
00:15:42.320 If there, if there is even a small chance that that's going to happen, I don't want them here.
00:15:47.760 Why are we bringing them here?
00:15:50.380 What's the point?
00:15:51.320 J.D. Vance puts it very well.
00:15:52.940 He says, yeah, Margaret, you might be right that most of the Afghanis aren't going to commit terror attacks.
00:15:59.440 I hope most of them aren't going to come. 0.99
00:16:01.100 I hope that most of them don't go around raping and murdering people. 1.00
00:16:04.200 I hope that's true. 0.95
00:16:06.040 But if even some of them do that, I don't want them here.
00:16:10.820 Because my responsibility is to protect the American people.
00:16:16.260 Not to, to import Afghanis on mass.
00:16:19.400 Nothing against Afghanis.
00:16:21.360 I mean, I guess something against Afghanis.
00:16:22.820 But let's, nothing against Afghanis in general.
00:16:25.220 But I'm the vice president of the United States.
00:16:27.340 I have a responsibility to the American people.
00:16:30.040 Clearly, the liberal media feel no such responsibility.
00:16:32.840 And you see this antagonism to the United States, to the native population of the United States, being expressed more and more and more crazy statements from a Democrat member of Congress and from a prominent liberal commentator.
00:16:48.100 We'll get to that in one second.

00:18:10.440 The reactions from the left were mixed.
00:18:14.980 There were two in particular that went viral.
00:18:17.400 And they're really beautiful, beautiful reactions because they think they're pushing back hard against the right.
00:18:25.240 They think that they're, I don't know what they're, they think they're defending open borders or something like that.
00:18:29.040 But these two people, Jasmine Crockett, member of Congress, and Wajahat Ali, who's some talking head. 1.00
00:18:36.780 Both of them accidentally grant the premise of the people who want to restrict immigration.
00:18:42.320 Jasmine Crockett's claim is that Trump should not be deporting the Afghanis or whatever.
00:18:47.600 Jasmine Crockett's claim that Trump should not be deporting any of the mass deportees.
00:18:54.080 He should instead be deporting white supremacists.
00:18:57.320 But obviously, in Trump's America, this is exactly what he wants. 0.87
00:19:03.060 And the idea that one person can get out of line and commit such a horrific crime as shooting two of our National Guardsmen,
00:19:11.000 two National Guardsmen that never, ever asked to be here.
00:19:14.440 In fact, we know the young lady that lost her life, specifically, we're saying that this is a waste of time.
00:19:20.020 But now you want to go against every single immigrant.
00:19:23.840 That doesn't make sense.
00:19:25.680 And it's frankly not who we are.
00:19:27.120 Because if that's the case, let's talk about the white supremacists and how many of them need to be kicked out of this country.
00:19:32.180 Because I can guarantee you, I can track down more crimes that they've committed. 0.96
00:19:36.300 Because overall, immigrants have a lower crime committal rate than white supremacists.
00:19:43.620 But we don't want to talk about that in this country.
00:19:45.420 I mean, the FBI.
00:19:46.360 A few points just on the particulars.
00:19:48.940 One, all illegal immigrants commit a crime. 1.00
00:19:53.080 That's why we call them illegal immigrants. 1.00
00:19:54.720 They break the law by the very act that defines them as illegal immigrants, first of all. 1.00
00:20:00.800 They often commit many more crimes on top of that.
00:20:03.780 Identity theft by stealing social security numbers.
00:20:07.940 Sometimes they're repeat offenders, which raises the illegal crossings to a felony.
00:20:12.240 Often, almost always, they're working with criminal cartels who are narco-terror groups, foreign terrorist organizations.
00:20:19.320 Often, they're involved in drugs, drug smuggling.
00:20:23.260 Fentanyl alone kills 75,000 Americans a year.
00:20:25.640 Human trafficking.
00:20:26.700 The list goes on and on and on.
00:20:27.860 However, let's just focus on the white supremacist thing.
00:20:34.840 Because you hear this claim a lot. 0.99
00:20:36.140 White supremacists commit more violent crime than anyone else in America. 0.97
00:20:39.340 It isn't true. 0.98
00:20:40.160 It's not even close to true.
00:20:41.300 If you look at crime statistics by race or gang affiliation or motivation, it's not even close.
00:20:49.300 Not even close. 0.99
00:20:49.960 In as much as actual skinhead neo-Nazi white supremacists commit crimes, they kill each other. 0.99
00:20:58.700 Over gang territory and drugs. 0.99
00:21:02.280 And most of it's from prison.
00:21:05.160 Okay?
00:21:06.260 This is an imaginary thing.
00:21:08.440 But we don't even need to get into that.
00:21:10.620 We don't have enough time.
00:21:11.340 There's a lot to cover today.
00:21:12.280 Maybe we'll save that story for another day.
00:21:13.740 Because the real key to Jasmine Crockett's commentary here is, she is granting the premise of deportations.
00:21:22.300 Right?
00:21:22.940 So, Jasmine Crockett here says, Trump shouldn't be deporting the illegal aliens from Venezuela or from Afghanistan or whatever.
00:21:30.760 You know, he shouldn't be deporting these people. 0.88
00:21:32.460 He should be deporting white supremacists. 0.98
00:21:34.720 Okay. 0.89
00:21:35.880 So, we've granted the premise now.
00:21:37.880 I just want everyone to hear this.
00:21:40.480 Jasmine Crockett is granting the premise of deporting some people who are a threat to our country, who should not be here. 0.73
00:21:48.160 Having granted the premise of mass deportations, now we are only arguing about the particulars.
00:21:56.820 Whom does it make more sense to deport?
00:21:59.040 The so-called white supremacists, who are by and large American citizens, who are the ones who are actually criminals, are all in prison already. 0.73
00:22:08.560 Them, this vanishingly small number of American citizens who basically just kill each other, who are already in prison.
00:22:16.100 Or, the tens of millions of foreign nationals who have no right to be here, who are, by their very existence in the country, constantly committing crimes, and who are also generally working with foreign terrorist organizations. 0.99
00:22:30.400 Should we deport them?
00:22:34.160 Or, let's put aside the illegal immigrants for a second. 1.00
00:22:37.960 How about the so-called refugees who are here from terrorist-laden countries, from totally foreign cultures, from totally foreign religions, who are here committing terrorist attacks? 0.98
00:22:48.340 Maybe we should get rid of them.
00:22:49.860 Which of those three do you think it makes the most sense to deport?
00:22:55.180 Because Jasmine Crockett has given us permission to deport some people.
00:22:59.140 So, now we're just quibbling over the details.
00:23:01.000 It's like that old joke, you know?
00:23:02.240 Like, a guy walks up to a lady and says, hey, would you sleep with me for $1? 1.00
00:23:08.140 She says, absolutely not.
00:23:09.820 I'm not that kind of woman.
00:23:12.840 Okay, would you sleep with me for $100?
00:23:16.700 Absolutely not.
00:23:17.480 I'm not that kind of woman.
00:23:18.940 All right.
00:23:19.480 Would you sleep with me for $10 million? 0.93
00:23:21.880 Well, I mean, maybe.
00:23:27.720 Okay.
00:23:29.140 Would you sleep with me for $200?
00:23:31.280 Absolutely not.
00:23:32.140 I'm not.
00:23:32.320 Well, hold on.
00:23:33.120 We've established what kind of woman you are. 1.00
00:23:35.020 Now we're just arguing over the details.
00:23:37.160 Now we're just quibbling over.
00:23:38.760 We have established.
00:23:40.600 Okay, deportations are okay. 0.91
00:23:41.800 Great.
00:23:42.480 I love that clip from Jasmine Crockett.
00:23:44.400 Wonderful.
00:23:45.080 We all agree we can deport some people en masse.
00:23:47.780 Now, who's it going to be?
00:23:49.240 Wajahat Ali, who's a talking head on the left.
00:23:52.540 In fact, he went even more viral for a response to the reaction to the murder of these National Guardsmen.
00:24:01.760 And we'll get to that momentarily.
00:24:02.880 First, I want to tell you about Remy.
00:24:04.140 Go to shopremi.com slash Knowles.
00:24:05.900 This episode is sponsored by Remy.
00:24:09.480 I have been clenching and grinding my teeth since I was a child.
00:24:16.480 Since I was a little child.
00:24:18.160 Actually, basically since as early as I can remember.
00:24:21.140 I don't know what that, what does that say about me?
00:24:22.560 I don't know what that says.
00:24:23.720 It's one reason, though, that I'm very excited to start using my Remy Night Guard.
00:24:27.020 And I'm not alone.

00:24:57.840 Very, very excited.
00:24:58.560 I take my teeth seriously.
00:25:00.220 I got a smile right in my line of work, okay?
00:25:02.220 A good smile really helps.
00:25:03.900 And you don't want all those problems caused by grinding your teeth.

00:25:47.940 At Ali, responding to Americans who are rightly quite concerned that the people that we import into this country from foreign places keep murdering us. 0.99
00:26:00.080 Here's Wajahat Ali's brilliant liberal commentary.
00:26:02.940 You have lost.
00:26:06.220 You lost.
00:26:07.140 The mistake that you made is you let us in in the first place. 0.94
00:26:10.240 See, that's the thing with brown people. 1.00
00:26:11.360 I'm going to say this as a brown person.
00:26:12.680 There's a lot of us.
00:26:14.240 Like a lot.
00:26:15.500 There's like 1.2 billion in India.
00:26:17.780 There's more than 200 million in Pakistan.
00:26:19.420 There's like 170 million in Bangladesh.
00:26:21.000 Those are just the people there.
00:26:22.980 I'm even talking about the folks who are expats or immigrants.
00:26:25.760 There's a bunch of us.
00:26:26.640 And we breed.
00:26:28.340 We're a breeding people.
00:26:29.920 And the problem is, is you let us in in 1965.
00:26:32.380 There were a few of us beforehand.
00:26:33.660 But once you let one of us in, you know what happens with brown folks? 1.00
00:26:37.400 Our grandmother comes.
00:26:38.460 Our grandfather comes.
00:26:39.260 Our uncle comes.
00:26:40.020 Our aunt comes.
00:26:40.760 Our cousin comes.
00:26:41.440 Our second cousin comes.
00:26:42.240 Our third cousin comes.
00:26:43.280 Then we have kids.
00:26:44.060 A bunch of kids.
00:26:44.880 And then guess what?
00:26:45.900 Some white women, you know, the Western civilization women, the pure women, the American women, quote unquote, the Rust Belt women, the real women. 1.00
00:26:51.400 They like some of us brown folks.
00:26:52.680 We don't take them.
00:26:53.680 They come to us.
00:26:54.620 So we're embedded.
00:26:55.620 We are everywhere.
00:26:56.640 We are everywhere.
00:26:57.300 I've traveled this country.
00:26:58.060 I'm going to speak as a brown person.
00:26:59.280 Brown people are everywhere.
00:27:00.700 There will be a Patel Motel or there will be a Desi restaurant everywhere. 0.96
00:27:04.140 I want you to realize this.
00:27:05.460 You have lost. 1.00
00:27:06.800 Your story is a shitty story filled with misery. 1.00
00:27:10.020 It's filled with bland chicken. 1.00
00:27:11.540 It's filled with terrible, terrible dry ass meat. 1.00
00:27:14.300 Your music sucks. 1.00
00:27:15.900 All your culture sucks. 1.00
00:27:18.620 That's why the kids listen to black people and their music. 1.00
00:27:20.920 That's why the kids love Latinos. 1.00
00:27:22.520 Your parties suck because they're monochromatic. 1.00
00:27:25.460 Our parties have better food, better music, better looking women. 1.00
00:27:29.760 And yet you all come here.
00:27:32.560 I can't help but notice in this terribly vicious diatribe by Wajahat Ali against white people and America, you know, the kind of founding stock of America generally.
00:27:45.040 I can't help but notice in this vicious about why he hates every single thing about us and our country and our culture.
00:27:50.880 I can't help but notice his parents came here.
00:27:54.380 And in fact, his whole argument is that all these other people are coming here as well.
00:27:58.260 Wajahat Ali is a perfect example of the problems of immigration. 1.00
00:28:04.420 I love this diatribe.
00:28:06.320 It's a beautiful diatribe because on the one hand, Wajahat Ali, he does this. 0.95
00:28:13.980 I'm a brown person and my parents are from Pakistan and I'm a brown.
00:28:17.340 Okay.
00:28:17.700 But on the one hand, in many ways, Wajahat Ali is the perfect American lib par excellence. 0.50
00:28:26.060 This is a guy who was born here.
00:28:28.420 He was born in California.
00:28:29.960 He graduated from UC Berkeley.
00:28:32.720 He bloviates in a bunch of frivolous left-wing outlets. 0.98
00:28:36.040 He dresses like a slob. 1.00
00:28:37.960 He is a perfectly assimilated American lib. 0.97
00:28:43.860 And yet, he expresses a deep hostility toward the native population of the country to which his parents fled from Pakistan.
00:28:54.840 And it's not just a hostility in the general sense.
00:28:58.220 It's a deeply tribal hostility.
00:29:00.920 It's a hostility that comes from his race and his nation of origin, homeland, I guess, a generation back, and culture. 0.69
00:29:11.220 And what this suggests to me is that even in the best of circumstances, heritage is a part of identity that is enduring, that is complex, that is enduring, and that cannot simply be waved away by passing a multiple choice civics exam.
00:29:33.260 You know, we have this fiction.
00:29:34.840 As even grants, he says, look, all of this mass migration, it started in 1965.
00:29:38.300 I know we all pretend like America's a country of immigrants, and it was all founded by immigrants, and it was all just immigrants all the way down. 0.99
00:29:44.280 But that's not really true.
00:29:45.400 It really just started in 1965 when the liberals opened up our immigration process and flooded the country with the third world, and everything's basically gotten worse ever since. 1.00
00:29:54.760 But, you know, it's not only because of the immigrants, but it's both a symptom and a cause of many problems. 1.00
00:30:01.120 But anyway, here we are now, and that's how it goes.
00:30:03.580 Even under the best of circumstances, where you have a guy like Wajihad Ali, who is as assimilated to American liberal culture as it is possible to be, went to one of the exemplars of American liberal institutions, and even there, he has this deep tribal identity. 0.93
00:30:22.820 Me, Pakistani, me hate you, white, hunky American. 1.00
00:30:26.580 Like, basically, he sounds like a complete knuckle-dragging troglodyte, doesn't he? 0.99
00:30:31.280 But with a kind of liberal twist to it.
00:30:34.980 And what does this tell us?
00:30:36.380 It tells us that the ancients and the medievals, and basically everyone before the 1960s, was right about immigration. 0.72
00:30:45.980 Our founding fathers, who severely restricted immigration.
00:30:50.140 Everyone was right about immigration until us. 0.99
00:30:53.880 St. Thomas Aquinas in particular comes to mind.
00:30:56.720 I'll just get just a little bit from St.
00:30:59.540 You know, it wouldn't be an episode of the show without a little Thomas Aquinas.
00:31:02.080 This is from Summa Theologiae Prima Secundae, question 105, article 3.
00:31:08.040 Man's relations with foreigners are twofold, peaceful and hostile, and in directing both kinds of relation, the law contained suitable precepts. 0.86
00:31:15.780 For the Jews were offered three opportunities of peaceful relations with foreigners.
00:31:19.900 First, when foreigners passed through their lands as travelers. 0.75
00:31:23.000 Secondly, when they came to dwell in their land as newcomers.
00:31:25.920 And in both these respects, the law made kind provision in its precepts for it is written,
00:31:29.720 thou shalt not molest a stranger, and again thou shalt not molest a stranger.
00:31:33.500 Exodus 22, 21 and Exodus 22, 9.
00:31:36.020 So, that's the one we always hear.
00:31:37.160 Well, you know, you were strangers in the land of Egypt, and therefore you must not.
00:31:40.840 This is all obviously true.
00:31:42.320 It's from the Bible.
00:31:43.280 But it's taken and twisted and exploited by liberals to justify open borders.
00:31:48.300 Okay, St. Thomas Aquinas goes on.
00:31:49.900 Thirdly, when any foreigners wish to be admitted entirely to their fellowship, speaking of the Jews, and mode of worship. 0.50
00:31:56.180 With regard to these, a certain order was observed.
00:31:58.980 For they were not at once admitted to citizenship, just as it was law with some nations that no one was deemed a citizen except after two or three generations, as the philosopher Aristotle says.
00:32:09.460 The reason for this was that if foreigners were allowed to meddle with the affairs of a nation as soon as they settled down in its midst, many dangers might occur, since the foreigners not yet having the common good firmly at heart might attempt something hurtful to the people. 0.99
00:32:22.440 So, put a pause here.
00:32:23.480 St. Thomas Aquinas is saying, look, here is how the Jews handled immigration in the Old Testament.
00:32:28.040 Because the Old Testament prefigures Christ, the Jews as a people are a particular people that is the type of all nations because God, who is the God of everything, is a God who also cares very much about the particulars.
00:32:42.640 So much so that his only begotten son, only begotten son, is particularly incarnate in a particular place in a particular time to a particular woman and is crucified by a particular governor, Pontius Pilate.
00:32:55.300 And it's all particular.
00:32:56.400 He picks particular apostles and a particular church he founds in order to spread from the particular to the universal.
00:33:05.680 So, St. Thomas Aquinas says, okay, the Jews, being a particular people who are the type of all nations, they didn't just like open up all their borders.
00:33:15.180 They would sometimes admit people.
00:33:17.920 It's not that immigration and assimilation is always wrong.
00:33:20.540 Look at Ruth.
00:33:21.100 Ruth was a Moabite who was brought in and said, your people will be my people and your God will be my God. 0.98
00:33:25.880 She was brought in to the Jews.
00:33:28.220 And she's in actually the lineage of our Lord, of Christ.
00:33:32.240 However, the Jews were pretty careful about it.
00:33:36.240 So he says, okay.
00:33:37.160 And then he doesn't just cite the Jews in the Old Testament.
00:33:39.480 He also cites Aristotle, wisdom also from Greece.
00:33:43.520 And he says, you know, you don't make them citizens all at once because it takes some time.
00:33:49.900 It's not that you say, all right, you have to have a certain amount of, a certain kind of blood in you or else you're not allowed into the nation.
00:33:56.760 It's not quite that.
00:33:57.900 But it says you need a little bit of time.
00:33:59.280 You can't just come here and, as we pretend today, you know, pass a civics exam, like a, you know, five-question civics test, and then we pretend you're as American as apple pie.
00:34:09.160 That's not how it works.
00:34:10.720 That is not how it works.
00:34:12.340 Final point.
00:34:13.040 It says, hence it was that the law prescribed in respect of certain nations that had close relations with the Jews, the Egyptians among whom they were born and educated, the Idumeans, the children of Esau, Jacob's brother, that they should be admitted to the fellowship of the people after the third generation.
00:34:29.700 Whereas others with whom their relations had been hostile, such as Ammonites and Moabites, were never to be admitted to citizenship. 0.99
00:34:35.080 While the Amalekites, who were yet more hostile to them and had no fellowship of kindred with them, were to be held as foes in perpetuity, for it is written, the war of the Lord shall be against Amalek from generation to generation. 0.96
00:34:45.600 Wow.
00:34:46.120 Man, Thomas Aquinas, as always, just, like, write about everything.
00:34:49.520 He says, it's not that you should never take immigrants in, but when you take immigrants in, you should do so very, very carefully, and you probably shouldn't grant them citizenship right away. 0.93
00:34:58.840 You should wait, maybe a generation, maybe two generations, maybe three generations, because it takes a while to be enculturated in all of the not totally rational, not totally articulable aspects of a political tradition.
00:35:15.660 You know, to understand what fireworks and hot dogs on the 4th of July are, to have a little bit of the George M. Cohan songs in your blood, to have your heart swell a little bit when you hear about George Washington and Paul Revere.
00:35:27.480 It just takes a little while.
00:35:29.580 You got to get it a little more in your bones.
00:35:31.540 It's not just something you inject into your head or upload to the cloud.
00:35:35.420 He says, certain people, by the way, are more suitable for immigration.
00:35:39.120 So immigrants from England, I mean, America comes from England.
00:35:42.420 So English immigrants are probably going to be a little bit easier to assimilate.
00:35:46.880 Immigrants from Germany, a little less so, but there's a shared cultural patrimony.
00:35:50.740 Let's not forget that the kings of England and Germany and even Russia were all cousins, right, in the First World War.
00:35:56.100 So, yeah, Germany, yeah, you can bring in the Germans, a little tougher than the English, but you can do it. 0.99
00:36:00.040 The Italians, racially liminal people, you know, a little bit North African, a little Terroni. 0.99
00:36:05.480 That's actually going to be a lot harder than assimilating the English and the Germans.
00:36:09.260 But, yeah, maybe you can do it.
00:36:10.620 Obviously, there's a shared cultural patrimony.
00:36:12.240 I mean, Rome, after all, is in Italy.
00:36:14.620 How about Eritrea?
00:36:16.820 How about Pakistan?
00:36:18.580 Let's really come down to the brass tacks.
00:36:20.980 How about Somalia?
00:36:23.800 That's going to be a lot harder.
00:36:24.980 However, I'm not saying it can't be done.
00:36:27.600 I'm not saying that the Somalians are the Amalekites, that we're forever, you know, embattled with these people. 1.00
00:36:33.840 But what I am saying is it's going to be a lot harder to assimilate them.
00:36:38.640 It's going to be a lot harder to meaningfully make them American than it would be for an Italian or a German or especially an Englishman.
00:36:49.720 And so then this raises the question.
00:36:53.080 I think this was the question on a lot of people's minds, especially as we found out that Governor Tim Walls, the man who was the running mate with Kamala Harris, almost one heartbeat away from becoming the second woman president.
00:37:03.880 Tim Walls was caught in a massive fraud scandal where taxpayer dollars from Minnesota were going to Somali schemesters who were sending it to a terror group in Somalia.
00:37:15.320 Raised a lot of questions to people about immigration, which is not just who do we have to let in?
00:37:21.120 Who do we, who are, who, through what procedures do we have to let these people in?
00:37:25.640 Raised a question, which is, what do these people add to America?
00:37:32.960 Why are we letting them in in the first place?
00:37:34.640 We'll get to that in one second first.
00:37:36.760 Before we get to President Trump calling Tim Walls a retard, I want to tell you about Roe Nutrition.
00:37:41.680 Go to roenutrition, r-h-o-nutrition.com slash discount slash Knowles.
00:37:46.280 This episode is sponsored, as you might have guessed, by Roe Nutrition.
00:37:49.020 Quick reminder before we get started, you can get 20% off Roe's liposomal NAD plus at r-h-o-nutrition.com slash discount slash Knowles.
00:37:59.380 Okay, let me tell you why I'm very excited about Roe's liposomal NAD plus every morning.
00:38:05.560 NAD plus is one of the most important molecules in your entire body.
00:38:09.920 If you picture every cell having a little engine inside of it, the mitochondria, NAD plus is the fuel that engine runs on.
00:38:18.140 It is what helps power everything from your metabolism to cellular repair to how well you think and recover.
00:38:22.940 As we get older, or just live our busy, high-stress lives, NAD levels naturally decline.
00:38:28.720 So, giving your body more of it is one of the smartest things you can do to support healthy aging.
00:38:32.960 What I like about Roe is simple.
00:38:34.400 They make NAD plus in a liposomal liquid format designed to support absorption.
00:38:39.000 Super convenient.
00:38:40.220 It's quick, little daily teaspoon.
00:38:42.100 No powders, no capsules, no trip to a clinic.
00:38:43.840 And you can feel the difference right now.

00:39:20.840 My favorite comment on when was this?
00:39:23.060 Was it a zillion years ago?
00:39:24.720 This was right before we left, before Thanksgiving.
00:39:27.420 It's from FooFooCuddlyPooPS85.
00:39:30.820 It says, Michael was feeling a little extra unhinged today with that Scott Besson impression.
00:39:36.180 I love Scott Besson.
00:39:37.320 I like, the guy is terrific.
00:39:38.980 I really, I think he's just an absolute killer. 0.86
00:39:42.160 So smart and a killer in the admin.
00:39:44.880 And I love the idea of Scott Besson just, hey, running intellectual circles around all of his liberal interlocutors.
00:39:53.660 Okay, turning to Somalis.
00:39:56.920 We're running out of time, so I'm going to try to move quick on this. 0.90
00:39:59.480 The short, the TLDR, President Trump called Governor Tim Walz a retard.
00:40:03.880 He actually called him seriously retarded in a Tolstoyan-length truth social post for Thanksgiving. 0.95
00:40:12.820 I'll skim it. 0.99
00:40:14.460 A very happy Thanksgiving salutation to all our great American citizens and patriots who have been so nice in allowing our country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the world for being politically correct and just plain stupid when it comes to immigration. 0.72
00:40:28.700 Goes on about the insane foreign-born population, 53 million people, all of the yearly benefits that they're getting, all the welfare benefits that we're told the migrants don't really get, all the, how recent all this problem was. 1.00
00:40:43.380 And then he says, the seriously retarded governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing either through fear, incompetence, or both. 0.96
00:40:51.400 While the worst congressman or woman in our country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the USA illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our country, our constitution, how badly she is treated. 0.97
00:41:07.320 When her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime-ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of government. 0.99
00:41:13.120 It goes on.
00:41:14.680 We don't have time.
00:41:15.200 We got to get to it. 0.80
00:41:16.180 Is Trump allowed to call Tim Walz retarded? 0.96
00:41:18.180 That's the question. 0.68
00:41:18.820 That's what people are debating.
00:41:21.920 I'll tell you something.
00:41:23.460 In public, sometimes people's private speech is a little saltier than their public speech, and I think that's good.
00:41:30.360 It's good to have more decorum in public.
00:41:31.960 It's good always to speak in a moral way.
00:41:33.860 But in terms of the particulars of turns of colloquial phrase, it's good to maybe have more decorum in public than in private.
00:41:42.020 One of the real popular things about President Trump, though, is he is, by all accounts, the exact same guy in public as he is in private.
00:41:51.200 And at a time when our political order is so dishonest, when people are not merely a little more polite in public, a little more refined in public, but when people are actually hypocrites, when people say one thing and do the exact opposite in private.
00:42:07.200 But in that kind of political order, it's quite refreshing.
00:42:12.300 Trump's the same guy.
00:42:13.020 He wears the same suit with the same tie.
00:42:15.280 He speaks with the same accent.
00:42:16.620 He says exactly the same things in every circumstance.
00:42:19.400 To every group of people, he doesn't pander to anyone.
00:42:22.420 He is exactly the same guy with every single person.
00:42:26.640 He makes Muslim jokes on Truth Social about Ilhan Omar. 0.53
00:42:29.880 He makes Muslim jokes to the Al-Qaeda leader of Syria to his face.
00:42:33.340 Hey, I got some perfume for your wife. 1.00
00:42:35.060 How many wives you got? 1.00
00:42:35.880 I never know with you people.
00:42:37.420 You people, you know, you guys.
00:42:40.120 He's the same guy.
00:42:41.180 So the question is, is he allowed to use the word retard?
00:42:43.820 Because I think in public, you know, people generally don't use that word.
00:42:48.500 Why?
00:42:49.880 Well, not because it isn't like funny or not because it's like the worst word you could possibly use.
00:42:54.240 But because we all actually can't say that we all know retarded people. 0.98
00:42:59.880 Because abortion has killed so many retarded people. 1.00
00:43:02.740 It used to be that we all knew retarded people and we'd love retarded people. 0.99
00:43:06.040 And people, there are varying degrees of mental retardation. 0.99
00:43:09.040 And many people have mentally retarded people in their families. 0.99
00:43:14.680 And so we don't want to be offensive, needlessly offensive to people.
00:43:19.840 However, however, I can't help but notice that it's many people on the right 0.73
00:43:25.520 who are willing to say the word retard or retarded in a pejorative, vulgar sense.
00:43:33.340 And the people on the left, they won't do that.
00:43:36.400 The people on the left, however, will openly advocate and actually carry out 0.98
00:43:42.620 the murder of every retarded person in the country. 1.00
00:43:46.120 Whereas the people on the right feel moral horror at even contemplating that thing.
00:43:53.960 A buddy of mine has put it pretty succinctly. 0.99
00:43:59.500 Yeah, I'm willing to say retarded, but at least I don't want to kill them. 1.00
00:44:05.040 I think that's a pretty fair assessment. 0.97
00:44:06.940 And so beyond whether or not Trump's allowed to say retarded,
00:44:10.300 let's get to the real political point here. 0.78
00:44:11.840 You realize why he said retarded, right? 1.00
00:44:13.520 You realize why Trump called Tim Wohl's retarded? 0.78
00:44:16.720 Because Trump has poetic diction.
00:44:18.060 He has an extremely good grasp on language.
00:44:19.780 I've said this since 2016, since he used the phrase make America great again,
00:44:23.200 which is a beautiful, Saxon, evocative, poetic phrase.
00:44:28.180 He actually in many ways does have the best words in our political environment.
00:44:32.960 And sorry if you disagree, but it's why he is the biggest political success ever of any of our lifetimes.
00:44:38.740 So the word retarded here serves a similar poetic and rhetorical function. 0.71
00:44:45.240 Retard is the bait. 1.00
00:44:46.900 Retard is the bait in this truth social post. 0.99
00:44:50.020 Okay.
00:44:51.200 And then the switch, here's the bait.
00:44:53.900 The switch is now we're all talking about Somalian immigrants.
00:44:56.460 If he just said, what happened under Governor Walz's administration is completely reckless and irresponsible.
00:45:04.540 And the welfare fraud that took place because of the refugees from Somalia is just wrong.
00:45:15.500 Sorry.
00:45:16.160 Was anybody talking about anything at all?
00:45:18.320 I'm sorry.
00:45:18.660 Hold on.
00:45:19.040 Let me try that again. 1.00
00:45:20.420 Hey, Tim Walz is a big, fat, stupid retard. 1.00
00:45:23.380 You see what he did with those Somalians? 1.00
00:45:24.760 Which one are you more likely to pay attention to?
00:45:30.440 So people can quibble over his public use of the word retarded. 0.99
00:45:34.780 But now, we're not talking about, I kind of, in many ways, I wish we would talk about retarded people and why we shouldn't kill them through abortion. 1.00
00:45:41.380 Which is actually the chief political relevance of that word. 0.93
00:45:46.240 But maybe that's a conversation for another time.
00:45:48.420 At the very least, we're talking about the massive immigration fraud scandal, specifically regarding Somalis in Minnesota.
00:45:56.240 So what is the scandal?
00:45:58.120 What is the scandal?
00:45:59.200 The scandal is that Tim Walz, under his leadership, allowed Somalis to defraud the welfare system in all sorts of housing programs, food programs, all these kind of programs.
00:46:11.940 Take the money, send it back to Somalia, in many cases, funding the terror group, Al-Shabaab, as Chris Ruffo reported.
00:46:18.500 Even the New York Times has had to admit this.
00:46:20.260 How fraud swamped Minnesota's social services system on Tim Walz's watch.
00:46:26.360 Minnesota health service employees.
00:46:28.560 This is a group of actual health service employees in Minnesota.
00:46:33.220 Minnesota underscore DHS says, Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota.
00:46:38.240 These are bureaucrats in Minnesota who worked for Tim Walz.
00:46:41.800 We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for partnership and stopping fraud.
00:46:45.560 But no, we got the opposite response.
00:46:47.460 Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers, using monitoring threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports, on and on and on.
00:46:54.680 Okay, so then the question becomes, okay, you've imported these massive schemers, these fraudsters from Somalia, 1.00
00:47:02.700 who have a foreign religion, who support actual terror groups, materially with taxpayer money.
00:47:09.540 Who are kicking Christians and the native population out of various towns in the United States. 0.74
00:47:16.660 Not just the Somalians, but Muslim immigrants generally.
00:47:20.020 Dearborn, Michigan, probably the clearest example of this.
00:47:24.120 So, why are we doing this?
00:47:27.320 What are they adding to our country?
00:47:32.120 What are Somalians adding to our country? 1.00
00:47:36.020 This is, I have nothing in particular against Somalians.
00:47:38.300 They're children of God.
00:47:39.240 I hope they all convert to Christianity.
00:47:40.820 I hope that their lives improve, and we can help their lives improve in some way.
00:47:44.940 They add nothing to our country.
00:47:47.760 Nothing good to our country comes from Somalians. 1.00
00:47:50.520 At all.
00:47:52.580 At all.
00:47:53.920 You can't even, with some groups, you say, well, look, they bring crime and drugs and
00:47:57.860 breakdown of social solidarity, but gee willikers, I love their food.
00:48:02.000 Somalians don't even have food. 1.00
00:48:03.700 What do they add to the country? 0.95
00:48:05.040 Nothing.
00:48:05.600 So, why do we bring them in? 0.77
00:48:06.920 So that they can defraud taxpayers and fund Muslim terror groups overseas? 1.00
00:48:11.520 So that they can commit murder and rape? 1.00
00:48:14.340 So, why are we bringing them in?
00:48:16.060 Let's zoom it out again.
00:48:17.020 Let's bring it all the way back to what we were talking about at the top of the show.
00:48:18.960 So, DHS had a great little rundown, a horrifying little rundown, but great in its clarity on
00:48:25.120 what the Afghan refugees have been up to.
00:48:27.620 Here are the Afghanis.
00:48:30.940 Zabahullah Mama, whatever. 0.62
00:48:33.240 An Afghan national who was settled in Montana by the Biden administration was charged in
00:48:37.440 the rape of a teenage girl in a Missoula motel room.
00:48:41.100 So, he was resettled in Montana.
00:48:45.280 I'm sure he blended in marvelously there.
00:48:47.480 And he was just charged with the rape of a teenage girl. 0.98
00:48:52.280 So, we bring this Afghan in and he rapes an American. 1.00
00:48:57.440 Okay? 1.00
00:48:58.560 Or rapes a girl. 0.99
00:48:59.180 I don't know if it was an American or not. 0.99
00:49:00.540 Either way, quite horrible.
00:49:01.920 Certainly in America.
00:49:02.900 How about Abdullah Hajidzada and Nazir Ahmed Taweidi, both Afghan nationals given legal
00:49:12.600 status by Joe Biden.
00:49:14.600 They were arrested and prosecuted for plotting a terror attack in Oklahoma City on Election
00:49:19.600 Day 2024.
00:49:20.820 I think that's what the vice president was talking about earlier.
00:49:23.840 They had hundreds of rounds of ammunition, pledged their allegiance to ISIS.
00:49:27.060 How about Mohammed Karwin, another Afghan national who was on the terror watch list.
00:49:31.640 Border Patrol got him in 2024 and then released him back.
00:49:35.100 He was on the terror watch list.
00:49:36.480 Border Patrol gets him under Joe Biden and then just releases him back into the country.
00:49:41.160 Then he was arrested again.
00:49:43.460 He'd been living at large in the U.S. for over a year.
00:49:47.160 Then we got Barula Nori.
00:49:49.960 He's an Afghan evacuee.
00:49:52.220 He was arrested at Fort McCoy in Wisconsin, charged with attempting to engage in a sexual act
00:49:59.000 with a minor using force and three other counts of engaging in a sex act with a minor. 0.92
00:50:04.520 So Barula Nori raped a kid, at least one kid. 1.00
00:50:09.440 This is our strength. 0.97
00:50:10.740 This is our, this is the cultural enrichment.
00:50:16.420 As I pointed out earlier, citing St. Thomas Aquinas and Aristotle and others, I am not totally
00:50:22.140 opposed to immigration in principle.
00:50:23.620 I do not think that assimilation is impossible or necessarily harmful.
00:50:28.780 Look at Ruth, the Moabite, joining the Israelites. 1.00
00:50:33.460 However, immigration is a very, very big problem.
00:50:38.260 Thinkers from Plato and Aristotle up to Dante all the way up to thinkers today have observed
00:50:43.860 that immigration, in many ways more than any other political issue, can cause real social
00:50:49.400 problems in a polity.
00:50:50.480 So you got to be very, very careful about it.
00:50:52.380 It can introduce confusion.
00:50:57.440 It can introduce crime.
00:50:58.520 It can break down social solidarity.
00:51:01.840 Why do we have to tolerate this?
00:51:04.420 Why?
00:51:05.420 Why did we bring those Afghanis to America? 1.00
00:51:08.780 I'll tell you why.
00:51:09.960 It's not because we like their food.
00:51:11.420 We don't know what their food is.
00:51:12.980 No one eats Afghani food.
00:51:14.820 It's not because we can be enriched by their culture and religion.
00:51:19.280 We can't.
00:51:19.700 It's not because we love their cultural practices, like pederasty is a notable Afghan cultural 1.00
00:51:26.380 practice referenced in one of those criminal descriptions.
00:51:31.280 We did it because we feel guilty.
00:51:33.280 We did it because we, because Afghanistan harbored Islamic terrorists who attacked the United States 1.00
00:51:39.520 on September 11th, 2001, and then we went to war in Afghanistan first, then Iraq.
00:51:44.660 But Afghanistan, we were there for 20 years.
00:51:46.360 And the war, like so many wars waged by Washington bureaucrats, was overly broad, kind of aimless,
00:51:56.680 didn't really achieve a lot of ultimately what it hoped to achieve.
00:51:59.580 It was unclear even what the objectives were.
00:52:01.420 And then we left, and we felt kind of bad about it, so we took some of them in. 0.98
00:52:04.740 And now they're killing us, and they're raping people, and they're committing terror attacks. 0.99
00:52:08.700 But we felt bad. 1.00
00:52:10.240 That's it.
00:52:10.660 We felt bad because things didn't work out in the war that we had to engage in after they 0.98
00:52:17.760 waged war on us, and we felt kind of bad.
00:52:21.020 Why do we take the Somalis in in Minnesota? 1.00
00:52:25.880 Because we feel bad for them.
00:52:28.240 I get, it's good, it's good to feel for people.
00:52:31.140 I like feeling for people.
00:52:32.140 Charity is good, but liberalism is a perversion of Christianity broadly.
00:52:39.860 All modern ideologies are just thin, abstract, rationalized perversions of true religion.
00:52:48.300 And in the case of liberalism, it takes certain virtues and divorces them from the others.
00:52:54.280 So it takes, I don't know, it takes some mercy, generosity, and it totally divorces it
00:53:00.780 from prudence and self-defense.
00:53:03.380 So now you have a situation where you say, well, we have to bring in these people who 1.00
00:53:06.460 are going to kill us and murder us, shoot up our Christmas markets, rape our girls, 1.00
00:53:10.060 commit terrorist attacks, kill our National Guardsmen. 1.00
00:53:12.280 We have to do it, and we're going to, we won't even pretend that they're adding a lot 0.99
00:53:16.920 to the country or that we like their food.
00:53:18.180 We have to do it because, you know, come on, those poor people.
00:53:24.240 But we have an obligation to defend our own country, and frankly, it's not even really
00:53:28.900 good for them.
00:53:29.360 But ultimately, if we do it, because all we'll do is destroy this country, and then they'll
00:53:33.080 have nowhere to even aspire to go to.
00:53:36.080 Do we have to live like this?
00:53:37.700 I don't think so.
00:53:38.440 There's so much more I want to get to.
00:53:39.660 There's so much that happened.
00:53:40.860 There's a trans professor at University of Oklahoma who gave a Christian student zero points out
00:53:47.060 of 25 points on a paper because she cited the Bible on gender issues.
00:53:51.980 I really, oh, I have so much to say about it because everyone's getting it wrong.
00:53:55.740 But we got to wait until tomorrow.
00:53:57.680 How do you like that for a tease?
00:53:58.480 Oh, by the way, Pope Leo, the Holy Father, prayed the Pater Noster in Latin in Constantinople
00:54:05.620 with the Eastern Orthodox and called for a communion, a full communion for all baptized Christians.
00:54:12.180 We're like reuniting the East and the West.
00:54:14.040 Everything's going on, but we got to get to it tomorrow.
00:54:17.480 Oh, the FDA admitted that COVID killed kids.
00:54:19.600 Anyway, we got to get to it all tomorrow because today's Music Monday.
