00:00:45.000 After years of legal and political battles,
00:00:47.000 the first two major medical associations
00:00:49.000 have finally come out against transing the kids.
00:00:52.000 A liberal mother threatens to murder her kids if ICE shows up.
00:00:55.000 And Democrat Congressman Jerry Nadler encourages citizens
00:00:59.000 to shoot ICE agents.
00:01:01.000 I'm Michael Knowles.
00:01:02.000 This is the Michael Knowles Show.
00:01:06.000 Two teenage brothers, a 16 year old and a 17 year old,
00:01:25.000 are skipping school, skipping their education,
00:01:28.000 to go follow ICE agents around and film them.
00:01:31.000 And they're doing this with the encouragement of their mother
00:01:34.000 and of CNN, of the establishment media.
00:01:38.000 The liberal media love truancy.
00:01:41.000 They love it.
00:01:42.000 They loved it when Greta was skipping school to go sail a boat to get publicity.
00:01:46.000 And they love it when these kids are going around taking videos of ICE.
00:01:50.000 It's truancy is the thread.
00:01:52.000 We'll get to what that means.
00:01:53.000 First, though, I'm so pleased to tell you about Ave Maria Mutual Funds.

00:02:26.000 They refuse to invest in companies tied to abortion, pornography,
00:02:30.000 embryonic stem cell research, or those supporting Planned Parenthood.

00:03:17.000 Ave Maria Mutual Funds are distributed by Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC.
00:03:20.000 Huge, huge news.
00:03:23.000 Finally, the culmination of years and years of advocacy, of fighting, of lawfare, of political campaigns.
00:03:36.000 Trans ideology appears to be in free fall.
00:03:40.000 There is a chink in the armor of the trans movement.
00:03:44.000 The first major medical association, followed quickly on its heels by the second major medical association, have come out against transing the kids.
00:03:55.000 And it seems like such a minor win.
00:03:58.000 They say it's not even that they've come out all the way against transgenderism.
00:04:01.000 They're going to ban the surgeries for everyone.
00:04:03.000 They're going to ban the fake pronouns and putting men in the bathrooms and putting guys on the women's sports teams.
00:04:09.000 It's just transing the kids.
00:04:12.000 And yet, folks, I think it was my very second speaking tour for Young America's Foundation.
00:04:19.000 Back when conservatives doing the college speaking circuit was like the big hip hot thing,
00:04:24.000 I think it was my second tour was called Men Are Not Women and Other Uncomfortable Truths.
00:04:30.000 And at that time, this would have been 2017, 2018, that was shocking, outrageous, controversial.
00:04:41.000 When did Matt's movie come out?
00:04:42.000 Matt's movie came out 2020, was it 2021, 2022?
00:04:47.000 When that movie came out, that was shocking.
00:04:50.000 What is a woman?
00:04:51.000 Oh, you can't question this ideology.
00:04:53.000 At the time, you could lose your job.
00:04:56.000 You could be punished in school.
00:04:58.000 People would threaten to take your kids away from you if you question the transgender ideology.
00:05:02.000 And one of the big arguments made by the pro-trans people was,
00:05:05.000 well, the medical associations say we have to trans the kids.
00:05:09.000 And it was always this cheat.
00:05:11.000 It was always a scam.
00:05:12.000 Because the major medical associations, first of all, are primarily political lobbies
00:05:16.000 more than they are actually research institutions.
00:05:18.000 These are lobbies, representative trade groups of medical professionals.
00:05:23.000 But that's what it is.
00:05:24.000 It's a lobby.
00:05:25.000 They were basing their recommendations, one, on the political fads.
00:05:30.000 And two, on research from the transgender lobby, from groups like WPATH, the World Professional
00:05:38.000 Association for Transgender Health, whatever it stands for, WPATH.
00:05:42.000 And their studies were completely bogus.
00:05:44.000 And one way we know they're bogus, one, you can look at their methodology.
00:05:47.000 But the main way we know they're bogus is because we know for a fact that men can't be women.
00:05:50.000 So it was this unbelievable edifice, this architecture of lies.
00:05:55.000 It's taken so long.
00:05:59.000 What was that?
00:06:00.000 When was that speaking door?
00:06:01.000 2018?
00:06:02.000 It's 2026.
00:06:03.000 Almost a decade in, and we're finally getting the medical associations to come out and say,
00:06:09.000 okay, we're not totally into this.
00:06:11.000 What are the medical groups here?
00:06:12.000 Washington Post reporting the American Society of Plastic Surgeons said doctors should delay gender-related
00:06:18.000 surgeries until age 19, citing insufficient evidence that benefits outweigh risks.
00:06:23.000 Okay, that's the first one.
00:06:25.000 Immediately following on the heels of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons is the American Medical Association.
00:06:30.000 AMA comes out and agrees.
00:06:33.000 Well, sorry, I'll use their exact words.
00:06:35.000 They say that they generally agree with the findings of the Plastic Surgery Association.
00:06:42.000 They don't even say they specifically agree.
00:06:44.000 They come out, they say, quote, the evidence for gender-affirming surgical intervention is insufficient
00:06:49.000 for us to make a definitive statement, though the AMA says they support other kinds of gender-affirming
00:06:55.000 care for minors, which doesn't make any sense.
00:07:00.000 Hold on, you support pushing transgenderism on minors.
00:07:03.000 You say there's enough evidence to change their pronouns, treat them like they're the opposite sex,
00:07:09.000 through psychological therapy, say, affirm them in their delusions, put them in the girls' bathrooms,
00:07:14.000 put them on the girls' swim team.
00:07:16.000 But there's not enough medical evidence to give them the cross-sex hormone or the puberty blockers.
00:07:23.000 Well, hold on.
00:07:24.000 Can boys become girls or not?
00:07:27.000 Can boys become girls or not?
00:07:28.000 The American Plastic Surgery Association is basically saying, maybe not, so let's not do it to the kids.
00:07:36.000 The AMA isn't even going that far.
00:07:38.000 They're saying, well, no, no, no.
00:07:39.000 Yeah, there is evidence that boys can become girls.
00:07:41.000 We believe boys can become girls, so we're going to keep giving them gender-affirming care.
00:07:44.000 But we're not going to do anything too permanent.
00:07:48.000 We're not going to do anything that could get us sued.
00:07:53.000 That's what this is all about.
00:07:55.000 There was the lawsuit in Westchester and a detransitioner just won $2 million from doctors who, when she was a minor, affirmed her and her delusion.
00:08:07.000 That's what this is all about.
00:08:10.000 This is the AMA and the Plastic Surgery Association, as being reported in the Washington Post, saying, shoot, we're on the wrong side of the law now.
00:08:23.000 We don't want to get sued.
00:08:24.000 We don't want our members to get sued.
00:08:26.000 Okay, we'll back off.
00:08:28.000 Now, they're not admitting that.
00:08:29.000 They're saying, well, we're just following the evidence.
00:08:31.000 What evidence changed?
00:08:32.000 What are you following the evidence?
00:08:33.000 AMA, how are you following the evidence?
00:08:35.000 You're speaking out of both sides of your mouth.
00:08:37.000 You're saying things that contradict each other.
00:08:39.000 You're saying there is no evidence.
00:08:40.000 There's not enough evidence of transgenderism to do any of the procedures that could get you sued.
00:08:45.000 But there's enough evidence of transgenderism to do the procedures that won't get you sued.
00:08:49.000 It's so cowardly.
00:08:51.000 It's so cynical.
00:08:52.000 You guys are just out there to protect your members and your members' wallets.
00:08:56.000 At least the Children's Hospital of Minnesota admits this.
00:09:00.000 Children's Hospital of Minnesota has just come out and said they're going to stop, at least temporarily.
00:09:04.000 Prescribing puberty-blocking drugs and hormones to minors.
00:09:09.000 Specifically, as they seek gender-affirming care.
00:09:12.000 Because of, quote, an increase in federal actions directed in health systems like ours.
00:09:17.000 So they're not saying we're following the evidence.
00:09:19.000 They're not saying we've come to the light.
00:09:20.000 They're not saying we realize that boys can't be girls.
00:09:22.000 They're saying we don't want to get sued.
00:09:24.000 Or we don't want to be prosecuted by the government.
00:09:27.000 Fine by me.
00:09:29.000 That's an honest take.
00:09:31.000 That's the same exact thing the American Medical Association and the Plastic Surgery Association believe.
00:09:36.000 They just don't want to admit it.
00:09:38.000 And it's fine by me.
00:09:39.000 Because here's a key lesson to conservatives.
00:09:42.000 We need to bring the full weight of the government through prosecutions and through civil suits down on these people.
00:09:51.000 I know the libertarians don't like the sound of that.
00:09:54.000 We need to bludgeon these people in courts of law with every statute we can muster.
00:10:00.000 With every civil claim we can muster.
00:10:02.000 We need to force them to kneel and say, uncle.
00:10:06.000 That's what happened here.
00:10:09.000 It was not the open marketplace of ideas that convinced the American Medical Association and the Plastic Surgery Association and the Minnesota Children's Hospital to change their behaviors.
00:10:18.000 It was not open free debate.
00:10:20.000 Some of the debates maybe played a little role in convincing the normies to turn the public opinion against transgenderism and then to bring the weight of the law down on it.
00:10:30.000 I guess way, way, way downstream or upstream, I guess their debate played a role.
00:10:35.000 But it was not just that the truth prevails in the open marketplace of ideas.
00:10:39.000 This is the brutal force of government and law.
00:10:42.000 That's what happened.
00:10:43.000 And it made these jerks say uncle in the same way that big tech and even some of the entertainment companies, which had been clobbering Trump for years, which had been cheering on as Trump was being censored, deplatformed, almost kicked off a ballot, almost murdered.
00:10:58.000 They were all cool with that until Trump won again.
00:11:01.000 And then they show up to the Oval Office and they shine his shoes.
00:11:04.000 They kneel down.
00:11:05.000 They kiss the ground he walked on because they were afraid that he would crush them.
00:11:09.000 And that's good.
00:11:10.000 That's one of the reasons that we elected Trump.
00:11:12.000 It's one of the reasons most people elected Trump.
00:11:14.000 Trump won the popular vote.
00:11:16.000 I love this.
00:11:17.000 Do not give the AMA or the Plastic Surgery Association or any of these children's hospitals any credit.
00:11:23.000 They deserve zero credit.
00:11:25.000 They are acting entirely out of servile fear, which is fine by me.
00:11:29.000 Their credibility has been permanently destroyed.
00:11:31.000 The fact that the American Medical Association ever even for one second said that men can become women and especially that little boys can be little girls means that their credibility has been permanently destroyed.
00:11:43.000 In matters of open, honest conversation, I don't want anyone ever to cite them as an authority or a source.
00:11:49.000 They don't know anything.
00:11:51.000 They deserve zero respect.
00:11:55.000 But I am very pleased that they're going to come along and play ball now because we made them play ball.
00:12:00.000 That's fine.
00:12:02.000 No credibility.
00:12:03.000 No respect.
00:12:04.000 Get down on your knees and say, uncle.
00:12:06.000 Absolutely.
00:12:07.000 Beautiful.
00:12:08.000 Big problems in the medical profession, even beyond the trans issue.
00:12:11.000 There is a Chicago area nurse who is calling on other nurses to let ICE agents bleed out.
00:12:17.000 We'll get to that momentarily.
00:12:18.000 First, though, I want to tell you about Tecovis.

00:13:31.000 Tecovis, point your toes west.
00:13:34.000 I told you two days ago, I said, guys, very excited.
00:13:37.000 Smells and Bells candle is back.
00:13:39.000 We're looking ahead to Lent.
00:13:40.000 Very, very exciting, this penitential season.
00:13:43.000 And I said, order it now and order two and order three or four.
00:13:46.000 However many you're going to want because it's going to sell out and I don't want angry emails.
00:13:49.000 What happens?
00:13:50.000 Less than 24 hours, our stock sells out.
00:13:53.000 As I predicted.
00:13:54.000 I was very pleased.
00:13:55.000 Thank you.
00:13:56.000 All of you like the candle so much.
00:13:57.000 It's my favorite candle too.
00:13:59.000 I had the candle team calling.
00:14:02.000 Was it yesterday or the day before?
00:14:03.000 I had them calling to see if we could get more glass, if we could get more resources.
00:14:07.000 Okay.
00:14:08.000 We sold out of the initial stock.
00:14:09.000 We do have new vessels.
00:14:12.000 We have enough vessels to make more candles.
00:14:15.000 I don't know how many we have.
00:14:16.000 However, the new vessels will be in a crystal clear glass, not this slightly amber tinged glass.
00:14:26.000 Okay.
00:14:27.000 So I'm just letting you know that it's the same candle.
00:14:29.000 It's the same wax.
00:14:30.000 The glass is a slightly different color.
00:14:32.000 You have to order now because I don't even know how much more of the crystal clear glass we can get.
00:14:37.000 Okay.
00:14:38.000 They said to me, they said, Michael, do you think that the people will be okay getting the candles if it's in a slightly different color glass?
00:14:43.000 I said, I think they'll be okay.
00:14:44.000 I think they just want the candle.
00:14:45.000 I don't want to get angry emails.
00:14:46.000 It's a great, it's a great scandal.
00:14:48.000 You got to order it now.
00:14:50.000 I don't know what's going to happen next time.
00:14:51.000 We, we've sold a lot of candles.
00:14:53.000 You have bought a lot of candles.
00:14:54.000 I appreciate that.
00:14:55.000 You got to go to the candle club.com.
00:14:57.000 Get your smells, smells, candle, order as many as you can.
00:15:00.000 If they're on the website, if they're on back order.
00:15:01.000 I don't even know.
00:15:02.000 I haven't even looked today.
00:15:03.000 The candle club.com.
00:15:05.000 A nurse in the Chicago area has called on his fellow nurses to let ICE agents bleed out in the hospital.
00:15:16.000 Remember how much power nurses have in this country?
00:15:21.000 One of our own was just murdered in the street.
00:15:26.000 So.
00:15:27.000 I guess he's talking about Alex Breddy.
00:15:29.000 We might be able to stop this somehow.
00:15:32.000 Thoughts?
00:15:34.000 Good morning.
00:15:35.000 Did you know most ICE agents don't wear their plates properly?
00:15:38.000 I've seen it.
00:15:39.000 You know, as the type of ICU nurse I was, I was cardiac ICU nurse.
00:15:45.000 And I did a lot of time, lots of hours holding on a groin that wouldn't stop bleeding.
00:15:50.000 Let me tell you what.
00:15:52.000 That femoral artery.
00:15:58.000 Those veins in the legs.
00:16:00.000 I can't.
00:16:01.000 I can't remember.
00:16:02.000 It's late in my shift.
00:16:03.000 Okay.
00:16:04.000 I know it.
00:16:05.000 I'm tired.
00:16:06.000 Anyway, the vasculature in the leg.
00:16:09.000 It really bleeds.
00:16:10.000 Bleeds.
00:16:11.000 Bleeds well.
00:16:12.000 Someone could bleed out very quickly from that.
00:16:14.000 Probably like a couple of minutes, really.
00:16:19.000 Okay.
00:16:20.000 So, this guy.
00:16:21.000 I guess he's still working as a nurse.
00:16:22.000 He's still got his little stethoscope on.
00:16:24.000 He says he was an ICU nurse.
00:16:26.000 Happily, I guess they moved him out of there.
00:16:28.000 He's telling his fellow nurses to let the ICE agents bleed out.
00:16:32.000 Okay.
00:16:33.000 Total lunatic.
00:16:34.000 What's his name?
00:16:35.000 Hat tip to libs of TikTok here.
00:16:36.000 I guess his name is Chad Malinowski.
00:16:39.000 He works, reportedly, at Midwest Express Clinic and Carl Hospital.
00:16:43.000 That's according to his LinkedIn.
00:16:45.000 Obviously, he needs to be fired.
00:16:46.000 He needs to lose whatever license he has.
00:16:48.000 He needs to never work in that field or anywhere near that field ever again.
00:16:51.000 Obviously.
00:16:52.000 No question about it.
00:16:53.000 That has to happen, not merely to keep him a dangerous psychopath away from ICE agents,
00:16:58.000 away from, I don't understand, normal people generally.
00:17:01.000 If he's willing to murder ICE agents, I don't think he would stop there.
00:17:04.000 But he has to be fired, and people like him have to be fired,
00:17:09.000 because his presence in the healthcare system poses an existential threat
00:17:15.000 to the entire American healthcare system.
00:17:18.000 Do you understand that?
00:17:19.000 I think probably you do understand that,
00:17:20.000 but there are going to be some libs out there who don't understand that.
00:17:23.000 There's no hyperbole whatsoever.
00:17:25.000 The existence of one of those guys working in the healthcare system
00:17:30.000 poses an existential threat to the entire healthcare system,
00:17:35.000 because the healthcare system is based on trust,
00:17:40.000 the trust that patients have for the practitioners.
00:17:44.000 You're in a very vulnerable position.
00:17:46.000 This is true in other industries.
00:17:48.000 It's true in food.
00:17:49.000 It's true in teaching.
00:17:51.000 It's less true in some industries.
00:17:54.000 It's less true, I don't know, when you go to the convenience store,
00:17:58.000 and you've got to pick up a Coca-Cola or a pack of cigarettes or something.
00:18:03.000 You don't really need to trust that guy all that well.
00:18:06.000 He just hands you the Coca-Cola.
00:18:08.000 There's the seal on it.
00:18:09.000 You're fine.
00:18:10.000 When it comes to the medical industry, when you go there or you bring your loved one there,
00:18:14.000 you bring your kid there, you're saying, okay, I trust you to slice open this person.
00:18:20.000 I trust you to preserve, maybe save this person's life.
00:18:23.000 If you have anyone in that system who says, hey, we're going to target ICE agents,
00:18:30.000 we're going to kill them, we're going to let them bleed out, the whole system loses credibility.
00:18:36.000 The whole system loses.
00:18:37.000 I just talked about how the American Medical Association now has zero credibility,
00:18:40.000 never will have any credibility again.
00:18:42.000 As long as these people are not immediately fired and seriously punished,
00:18:47.000 and everyone like them immediately fired and seriously punished,
00:18:50.000 the whole system loses credibility.
00:18:52.000 We talk about the crisis of American healthcare.
00:18:54.000 This is a much bigger deal than Obamacare premiums going up, okay?
00:18:58.000 Speaking of threats on ICE agents, it's not just from these lunatic random nurses in Chicago.
00:19:03.000 Jerry Nadler.
00:19:05.000 Jerry Nadler, who's been a member of Congress since just after the Civil War, I think.
00:19:10.000 Jerry Nadler, a stalwart Democrat from New York.
00:19:13.000 He is now openly encouraging people to murder ICE agents, to shoot them.
00:19:18.000 But what is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets.
00:19:23.000 The attacks on American citizens by masked hoodlums.
00:19:30.000 If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped.
00:19:34.000 You'd be justified in shooting the person to protect yourself.
00:19:38.000 If I were apprehended by a masked person, I might think I was being kidnapped and I would be justified in shooting that person, claims Jerry Nadler.
00:19:49.000 That obviously is not true.
00:19:51.000 It would depend on who the masked person was.
00:19:53.000 If the masked person were wearing all black and were speaking to me in some kind of threatening vernacular and were asking me to hand over my wallet or get him a ransom or something, then I would think maybe I'm being kidnapped.
00:20:07.000 If the masked person had badges, ICE, law enforcement, an American flag, was there as a representative of the civil authority, which is the legitimate government, the government for which Jerry Nadler works, sadly.
00:20:21.000 If you were that guy, I would not think I was being kidnapped.
00:20:24.000 I would think that I was being arrested and being put through due process in the American justice system.
00:20:30.000 Things that have superficial similarities are not necessarily the same.
00:20:36.000 Marital sex and rape could look somewhat similar.
00:20:46.000 Could.
00:20:47.000 Again, I don't want to be too evocative.
00:20:49.000 It's a family show.
00:20:50.000 I'm just saying, the physical action, the basic physical action that defines those two acts without any of the attendant behaviors that go along with it are identical.
00:21:02.000 It's like, you know, I'm not going to spell it out for you, but they're identical actions.
00:21:07.000 And yet, those two actions are totally dissimilar.
00:21:12.000 When you describe the context of them, they're totally dissimilar.
00:21:15.000 The same goes for being apprehended.
00:21:17.000 It's true.
00:21:18.000 If someone comes up behind you and grabs you, you could feel like you're being kidnapped unless you're, I don't know, playing flag football or something.
00:21:26.000 You need the context here.
00:21:28.000 So Jerry Nadler, maybe he's just dumb as a box of rocks.
00:21:33.000 Maybe that's, I don't think he is, but maybe he is.
00:21:36.000 But if he's not, then he's being very cynical here.
00:21:40.000 And he's making an argument that he doesn't even believe.
00:21:43.000 And he's saying that you should go shoot cops.
00:21:46.000 Go out there and shoot cops.
00:21:48.000 Jerry Nadler is an old guard Democrat.
00:21:50.000 He's not even an AOC or an Ayanna Pressley or a Jasmine Crockett.
00:21:54.000 He's supposed to be the old stodgy one.
00:21:57.000 This shows you how radical the Democrats have become.
00:22:00.000 Jerry Nadler, he's of the Pelosi era.
00:22:05.000 Jerry Nadler is coming out saying, hey, hey, ordinary constituents, go shoot cops.
00:22:11.000 Go out there.
00:22:12.000 Hey, go out there and shoot cops.
00:22:14.000 And you have to ask yourself, why is he doing this?
00:22:16.000 I guess it could just be stupidity, ignorance, profound vice.
00:22:21.000 I suspect there is a little bit of a political strategy here.
00:22:26.000 I think the Democrats want chaos in the streets.
00:22:28.000 And I'll tell you why in just a moment.
00:22:30.000 Because it doesn't stop.
00:22:31.000 Oddly enough, Jerry Nadler is calling on people to shoot cops is not the most disturbing video going around right now.
00:22:36.000 We'll get to what it is momentarily.
00:22:38.000 First, I want to tell you about masa chips.
00:22:40.000 Go to masachips.com slash Knowles.
00:22:42.000 You do not have to overhaul your whole life in 2026.
00:22:45.000 Start with simple swaps like upgrading your snacks to ones with real ingredients like our sponsor, Masa.
00:22:50.000 It's an easy way to eat clean without feeling like you're on a diet.
00:22:53.000 Masa chips contain just three ingredients.
00:22:56.000 Organic, nixtamalized corn, sea salt, and 100% grass-fed beef tallow.
00:23:01.000 No seed oils, no mystery chemicals, just real food that tastes incredible.
00:23:05.000 Unlike regular chips, Masa leaves you feeling satisfied, light, and energetic.
00:23:09.000 No crash, bloat, or sluggish feeling afterward.
00:23:12.000 Because they're made with real ingredients, they're more satiating.
00:23:15.000 You will not find yourself binging and still feeling hungry.
00:23:18.000 Personally, my favorite flavor of Masa is the original.
00:23:21.000 I think you can't beat the original.
00:23:23.000 If you love Masa, check out Vandy.
00:23:24.000 Masa's sister company makes the most delicious three-ingredient potato chips I've ever tasted.
00:23:28.000 It's just both Masa and Vandy are just something different that I actually will fail to convey.
00:23:34.000 Even though I am a lexical professional, my job is to use words in an evocative and precise way.
00:23:41.000 Words fail me to properly convey how delicious these chips are.
00:23:46.000 If you're ready to give Masa a try, go to masachips.com slash Knowles.
00:23:50.000 Use code KnowlesCanadaWL-E-S for 25% off your first order.

00:23:57.000 Don't feel like ordering online.
00:23:58.000 Masa is now available nationwide at your local Sprouts.
00:24:00.000 Stop by, pick up a couple of bags before they're gone.
00:24:03.000 There's a liberal mother in Portland who has gone viral.
00:24:06.000 She has a lot of studs in her face.
00:24:09.000 They're not rings.
00:24:10.000 They're like studs.
00:24:11.000 She obviously has a lot of problems.
00:24:13.000 This woman though says, do any other moms think this way?
00:24:16.000 Please tell me I'm not alone.
00:24:17.000 She describes how she plans to murder her children if ICE shows up to her door.
00:24:22.000 I really pray it doesn't get bad enough.
00:24:24.000 But being a mom in America, I had to stop walking for this.
00:24:27.000 I often think that if it gets to the point of knocking on doors.
00:24:31.000 God, and like, to even have these thoughts, it's like I'm literally separating from reality right now.
00:24:39.000 If it comes down to me taking out myself and my kids versus us being taken and harmed by ICE.
00:24:48.000 Like, God help me, I did not want to do it.
00:24:51.000 This is not the life I wanted.
00:24:52.000 But that is a very dark thought that I've had.
00:24:55.000 Death would be a easier out than for my children to be taken and harmed by these pedophiles.
00:25:03.000 Oh yes, this is going viral on social media and people are really disturbed by this.
00:25:07.000 This woman says that I guess she's illegal.
00:25:10.000 Maybe she's illegal.
00:25:11.000 Maybe she's not illegal.
00:25:12.000 I don't know.
00:25:13.000 There's this totally irrational fear of ICE being stoked by people like Jerry Nadler
00:25:16.000 and mainstream Democrats who are calling on them to be killed, comparing them to Nazis.
00:25:20.000 But in any case, this woman's claim is it would be better to commit suicide and infanticide,
00:25:28.000 to murder her children, than to be arrested by the police.
00:25:33.000 And a lot of people are shocked by this and horrified.
00:25:36.000 And I really don't know why.
00:25:38.000 If you are shocked by this, you've clearly never heard the libs talk about abortion and euthanasia.
00:25:43.000 I sometimes make the point when people are shocked by the liberals' latest behavior.
00:25:48.000 Jerry Nadler calling people to shoot cops.
00:25:50.000 Like, yeah, these people openly advocate slaughtering babies.
00:25:54.000 Yeah, they're willing to go pretty low, man.
00:25:57.000 I don't know.
00:25:58.000 And you know they do that, right?
00:25:59.000 You know they like call on people to shout their abortion and they, you know, they're like pro infanticide.
00:26:05.000 So yeah, obviously they'll stoop very low.
00:26:07.000 But that's not even the point I'm making here.
00:26:10.000 I'm making more of a point on how the libs view life and death and suffering.
00:26:16.000 Because the basic claim she's making is death is preferable to suffering.
00:26:23.000 Death is preferable to inconvenience, to a loss of total agency, personal autonomy, and to suffering.
00:26:32.000 That is what underlies the liberal arguments for abortion and especially for euthanasia, which is a euphemism.
00:26:40.000 It means a good death.
00:26:41.000 It's actually the worst kind of death because it's suicide.
00:26:43.000 And it just refers to assisted suicide, legal assisted suicide.
00:26:46.000 But that's the claim we have to interrogate here.
00:26:49.000 Is death preferable to suffering?
00:26:52.000 And this is an absurd claim on its face because life entails suffering necessarily.
00:27:00.000 This is a fallen world.
00:27:02.000 The very first act that will ever take place as you enter into the world involves two acts of suffering.
00:27:09.000 The suffering of the mother as she gives birth and the suffering of the baby as he meets the shock of the world.
00:27:15.000 What's the first thing a baby does when he sees the world for the first time?
00:27:19.000 He cries.
00:27:20.000 In fact, he has to cry.
00:27:22.000 If he doesn't cry immediately, something's wrong and the doctor has to spank him and then he cries.
00:27:26.000 Life necessarily entails suffering.
00:27:29.000 Best case scenario, you live a really long time and your loved ones die.
00:27:34.000 You see your loved ones die.
00:27:35.000 Best case scenario.
00:27:36.000 But you're going to get headaches.
00:27:37.000 You're going to get tummy aches.
00:27:38.000 You're going to suffer setbacks.
00:27:40.000 You're going to be disappointed.
00:27:41.000 You're going to desire things that you can't have.
00:27:44.000 Accidents will befall you.
00:27:46.000 You will commit sins and you will regret those sins and they'll make your life worse.
00:27:50.000 You will suffer.
00:27:51.000 You will suffer.
00:27:52.000 So, if we accept the liberal premise that death is preferable to suffering, we should just, we should kill ourselves as quickly as we can.
00:28:02.000 Or we should kill our babies immediately.
00:28:04.000 Or the moment at the very least that we're conscious of suffering, we should kill ourselves and encourage our loved ones to kill themselves.
00:28:09.000 And that is what abortion and euthanasia are.
00:28:12.000 That's it.
00:28:13.000 That's just, that's the premise.
00:28:15.000 And it's horrifying when we hear it in these terms, which are unfamiliar.
00:28:19.000 Namely, if a cop comes to arrest me, I'm going to slaughter my kids and kill myself.
00:28:22.000 Everyone's aghast, including the liberals.
00:28:25.000 Why?
00:28:26.000 Why are you shocked by this?
00:28:27.000 These are the premises that you yourselves in many cases, especially if you're on the left, but even some people on the right who support things like assisted suicide or even in some cases some kinds of abortion.
00:28:38.000 These are the premises that you yourself are accepting.
00:28:40.000 So why are you shocked that she's just taking them to their logical conclusion?
00:28:45.000 It's a good video.
00:28:46.000 I mean, it's horrifying, of course, but it's a good video because it shows people how many more horrifying premises they've accepted themselves.
00:28:54.000 Speaking of the ice protests, I mentioned this at the top of the show.
00:28:57.000 Young brothers are now full-time ice watchers.
00:29:02.000 What is ice watchers?
00:29:03.000 That's a new job.
00:29:04.000 That's a, you know, influencer.
00:29:06.000 That's a new job.
00:29:07.000 I don't know.
00:29:08.000 TikToker.
00:29:09.000 An ice watcher is a new job.
00:29:11.000 What is the job?
00:29:12.000 You go around and you harass law enforcement, you impede law enforcement, and you film cops.
00:29:16.000 CNN, so thrilled.
00:29:20.000 CNN writes, these young brothers sacrifice normal teenage life to be full-time ice watchers in Minneapolis and say they won't regret it.
00:29:30.000 These boys are 16, 17 years old.
00:29:32.000 They're taking, taking time off school.
00:29:34.000 They're not actually doing their school work.
00:29:36.000 And instead they're following cops around and filming them.
00:29:38.000 I love they say, and they, 16 and 17 year old boys skip school and they say they won't regret it.
00:29:45.000 Wow.
00:29:46.000 Stop the presses.
00:29:47.000 Teenage boys want to skip school and they promise it's a good idea.
00:29:50.000 Oh, wow.
00:29:52.000 Let's listen to them.
00:29:53.000 They're probably right.
00:29:55.000 I've never heard this before.
00:29:57.000 Can you imagine a teenage boy would want to skip school to go like run around outside and do like crazy kind of dangerous things.
00:30:05.000 This must be the first time that's ever happened.
00:30:08.000 And CNN buys it hook line and sinker.
00:30:11.000 Oh, goodness.
00:30:12.000 I hope the headline writer never becomes a parent.
00:30:15.000 Certainly not a parent of boys that not going to work out.
00:30:18.000 Well, his boys are going to run circles around him.
00:30:20.000 So who are the boys?
00:30:21.000 Ben and Sam, six, 17 and 16 year old.
00:30:24.000 Okay.
00:30:25.000 I'm not gonna read the whole article.
00:30:26.000 Just a couple little clips.
00:30:28.000 The brothers are homeschooled by their mom.
00:30:31.000 All right.
00:30:32.000 So they're not, they're not in a formal school.
00:30:33.000 So it's a little easier to skip school when the principal's your mom.
00:30:36.000 But hold on.
00:30:37.000 This means that the mom is okay with this.
00:30:40.000 Audrey, who juggles teaching, child rearing, and advocacy work.
00:30:49.000 So first of all, I've just found the first bit of fake news in this article.
00:30:52.000 It says the boys are homeschooled by their mom, Audrey, who juggles teaching.
00:30:57.000 No, she doesn't.
00:30:58.000 She doesn't teach.
00:30:59.000 She encourages her kids not to educate themselves.
00:31:02.000 So she's not teaching.
00:31:04.000 Child rearing.
00:31:05.000 She's not rearing her children.
00:31:06.000 She's sending them out to possibly go be shot by the cops.
00:31:09.000 She's telling them go run away.
00:31:11.000 Go to go to a different town.
00:31:13.000 Go to a different city.
00:31:14.000 Just go get out of here.
00:31:15.000 So she's not.
00:31:16.000 She's a horrible teacher.
00:31:17.000 She's a horrible child rearer.
00:31:20.000 I'm sure she does advocacy work.
00:31:22.000 That part.
00:31:23.000 I believe that's the only thing she does do.
00:31:24.000 She's a leftist activist and she has sacrificed her role as teacher and mother to her leftist activism.
00:31:33.000 No surprises there.
00:31:34.000 She's a terrible mother.
00:31:36.000 It needs to be said.
00:31:38.000 Hopefully she can correct it.
00:31:40.000 She's a terrible mother.
00:31:42.000 She is only a leftist activist.
00:31:45.000 She has sacrificed everything else to that.
00:31:47.000 During Operation Midway Blitz, I guess that's an ice operation.
00:31:51.000 Ben and Sam would patrol in the morning, come back around noon and knock out their schoolwork in a dizzying turnaround.
00:31:56.000 But that was before.
00:31:59.000 Now the boys said they're finding themselves more often sacrificing schoolwork for patrolling.
00:32:03.000 They just have to sacrifice it.
00:32:05.000 All that homework they really want to do.
00:32:07.000 Instead, they've got to go play around on the streets and film crazy stuff.
00:32:11.000 But it's a sacrifice they're willing to make.
00:32:14.000 That doesn't mean they've stopped learning, though, says CNN.
00:32:17.000 Here it's been more difficult, but this is almost like an internship.
00:32:21.000 Is it? Internships are usually when you emulate or train in a job.
00:32:25.000 What is the job here?
00:32:27.000 Well, I guess the job is leftist agitation.
00:32:30.000 Which is a job, so it's pretty lucrative in some places.
00:32:33.000 We're seeing things that most Americans will never see again in their lives, hopefully, Ben said.
00:32:38.000 The people we're getting to meet and experiences we're getting and the things you learn through this work is invaluable.
00:32:44.000 So, first of all, poor Ben, because he's been sacrificing all that schoolwork, doesn't know how verbs should agree with nouns.
00:32:52.000 He says, the people we're getting to meet and the experiences we're getting, the things you learn through this work is invaluable.
00:32:59.000 Just a correction for Ben, since his mom, who's supposed to be his teacher, won't teach him, you would say are invaluable.
00:33:04.000 Now, you wouldn't say any of that because it's not true, but at the very least, you should know how the most basic verb that there is, which is to be, when you conjugate that verb, should agree with the nouns.
00:33:17.000 Anyway, pedantic side point.
00:33:20.000 Audrey and her husband, Andrew, a professor at Wheaton College in Illinois, said they took Sam and Ben to their first No Kings protests and pro-Palestinian walks in the wake of the latest war in Gaza.
00:33:33.240 Oh, my goodness.
00:33:33.880 So, the parents groomed the kids into this.
00:33:41.120 They encouraged them to do this kind of stuff.
00:33:43.240 And now the kids are truants who are putting themselves in very dangerous situations.
00:33:47.960 She added, the mom, as a parent, how could I say no?
00:33:50.660 How could I say no?
00:33:51.480 If you were a good mother, that's how you would say no.
00:33:53.440 How could you say no?
00:33:54.060 How could you say yes?
00:33:55.640 How could I say no?
00:33:57.160 My kids wanted to skip school to go break the law and obstruct law enforcement and put themselves in a position where they might get shot.
00:34:05.060 How could I say no?
00:34:06.360 Where's the catch?
00:34:07.880 Hold on.
00:34:08.480 This is too good to be true.
00:34:10.020 Where's the catch?
00:34:11.040 How could I say no?
00:34:12.000 Well, if you were in the least competent to be a mother, if you had the least bit of feeling for your child and even two brain cells to rub together, that's how you could say no.
00:34:22.680 How could I say, no, you need to stick to your book learning and just ignore this for now.
00:34:27.160 We'll read about it in history books later.
00:34:28.440 Like, are you serious?
00:34:29.260 I am.
00:34:30.440 I am serious.
00:34:31.140 This woman said, this is the really horrifying part.
00:34:33.360 She said in the CNN article, she goes, you know, when Alex Petty got shot, I got these texts, where are your boys?
00:34:38.980 A white man has been shot.
00:34:41.940 And this woman thought, oh, oh my goodness, I've sent my kids out to be shot by the cops.
00:34:45.960 And she said she was the only person in America who was relieved to hear that it was Alex Petty who was shot because she thought it was her kid.
00:34:53.040 And then what did she do the next day?
00:34:54.320 She sent her kids out again to go do the same thing to maybe get shot again.
00:35:00.820 All of this to say, the professional left employs child labor.
00:35:07.300 And it's even worse than that.
00:35:08.600 It's not just that they employ child labor.
00:35:10.380 They don't even pay the child labor.
00:35:12.740 It's not slave labor because they brainwash the kids into doing this, and they brainwash the parents into sending their kids to do this.
00:35:18.800 But this is sick, cultish stuff.
00:35:21.760 This woman should get a visit from Child Protective Services.
00:35:24.540 These kids should maybe be removed from her house.
00:35:28.620 This is extremely negligent.
00:35:31.340 She is almost certainly violating the law even when it comes to homeschooling.
00:35:35.700 Though there is more leeway on homeschooling practically.
00:35:38.340 But she's telling them, don't do your schoolwork.
00:35:41.160 Be a truant.
00:35:42.180 Just go harass the cops.
00:35:43.620 And she is engaging in reckless behavior.
00:35:46.540 Recklessly negligent.
00:35:47.580 It's worse than negligent.
00:35:48.340 She's encouraging them to do it.
00:35:49.500 But we need a little lawfare for this stuff.
00:35:55.940 This is very, very bad.
00:35:58.560 And this is a microcosm of what happens generationally, where the left trains these kids from a very, very young age to be professional agitators.
00:36:10.100 The kids say, it's kind of like a job.
00:36:11.240 It's kind of like an internship.
00:36:12.260 And it kind of is.
00:36:13.580 It actually kind of is.
00:36:14.980 It's not a good one.
00:36:15.640 It won't lead you to flourishing in your career.
00:36:17.140 But there's a lot of money behind it.
00:36:20.040 There's a lot of money, a lot of organizing.
00:36:21.460 So what's it all about?
00:36:22.880 I think my friend, Senator Ted Cruz, has hit on what this is all about.
00:36:28.940 We'll get to that momentarily.
00:36:30.140 First, January has been very, very busy at The Daily Wire.
00:36:33.920 We have dropped 250 pieces of original content.
00:36:36.760 I think I'm responsible for like 241 of them.
00:36:38.820 No, we've got a lot of other stuff too.
00:36:40.740 We obviously have Pendragon that's come out.
00:36:43.320 New episodes are coming out every Thursday.
00:36:44.760 We've got Matt's new series, Real History with Matt Walsh.
00:36:47.500 We've got all of the shows.
00:36:49.100 We've added so many people.
00:36:50.780 Isabel Brown, Matt Fradd.
00:36:52.720 It's all very, very exciting.
00:36:53.720 February, we have even more to come.
00:36:56.100 We have new episodes of Pendragon every Thursday.
00:36:58.620 As I mentioned, you have to watch it.
00:36:59.800 It's getting a ton of play.
00:37:00.800 We have another season of Ben After Dark, the show you didn't ask for, but you're getting anyway.
00:37:05.140 Oh, we've got lots of bar fights coming up.
00:37:07.200 It's a lot, but you have to be a Daily Wire Plus member.
00:37:09.740 You have to, one, because your membership supports all of the things that we're doing.
00:37:15.900 We're very grateful for that.
00:37:17.280 Two, that's where you're going to see everything.
00:37:20.120 Right now.
00:37:21.020 Do it.
00:37:21.580 Don't wait.
00:37:22.160 Don't stop.
00:37:22.760 Don't hesitate.
00:37:23.400 Don't blink.
00:37:24.800 Go to dailywireplus.com.
00:37:26.540 Join right now.
00:37:27.660 Want to get to my favorite comment from yesterday.
00:37:29.440 It's from NC3419.
00:37:31.280 It says, I'm not obese.
00:37:33.060 I'm an active medical fat storage facility.
00:37:35.460 I come home yesterday, and Elisa, she didn't tell me she had listened to the show.
00:37:41.700 She just goes, hey, Mac, should I inject myself with fat from dead bodies?
00:37:46.320 I was like, oh, yeah, right.
00:37:47.560 There is that story.
00:37:48.220 But you're right.
00:37:49.100 Now, people who are a little more corpulent, who could be donors, you say, no, no, I'm not obese.
00:37:57.840 I'm just a future medical fat storage facility.
00:38:00.760 That's really nice.
00:38:01.340 Speaking of what young people are learning, or not learning in the case of the Ice Watchers,
00:38:09.840 the great Senator Ted Cruz just grilled Netflix and WB CEOs on whether or not Billie Eilish
00:38:19.260 is right in her claim at the Grammys, whether or not America is stolen land.
00:38:26.260 Are we right now on stolen land?
00:38:28.400 I have no idea of the history of this land, of where we're sitting today.
00:38:36.140 Nor do I, Senator.
00:38:37.760 So that speaks volumes that neither of you are willing to say, hell no, we're not on stolen land.
00:38:42.720 And I will say at the Grammys, when you see an entertainer say, nobody is illegal while we're on stolen land,
00:38:48.480 and then you see entertainers leap to their feet, clapping so excitedly at the notion that America is fundamentally illegitimate,
00:38:56.380 it starts to convey that the entertainment world is deeply corrupt.
00:39:01.960 And I will point out that same singer who says no one is illegal on stolen land promptly went back to her $14 million mansion,
00:39:08.340 and somehow that stolen land she wasn't concerned about, just the United States of America.
00:39:14.180 So why is Ted asking the Netflix and WB CEOs this?
00:39:18.480 Is this just gratuitous, a way to smack down these guys who are testifying before the Senate?
00:39:23.700 I don't think so.
00:39:24.460 The claim was made by a very popular entertainer at one of the big entertainer galers, trade events of the entire year.
00:39:34.260 And now you have two of the heads of the entertainment industry come in.
00:39:38.380 And so it's a perfectly justified question.
00:39:41.760 And as you may have noticed over the years, Senator Cruz is very, very intelligent.
00:39:46.400 He's very good at this, very good at drilling down and grilling people.
00:39:50.240 So he asks some of this because he knows they're not going to answer it.
00:39:53.140 And their refusal to answer is itself a scandal.
00:39:57.060 Is this stolen land?
00:39:58.380 The correct answer is America is not stolen land.
00:40:01.260 No, we're a country.
00:40:02.060 We're the greatest country in the history of the world.
00:40:03.460 And we secured our land in a variety of ways through treaties, through settlement, through wars of conquest,
00:40:11.400 through the consequences of wars, actually, where we get territory from other groups.
00:40:18.020 But that's what we are.
00:40:18.860 We're a country.
00:40:19.940 According to the nation state system, according to the body of international law,
00:40:23.440 according to all rights of land ownership going back to antiquity, no, we're not stolen land.
00:40:29.320 But these guys can't do that.
00:40:30.460 They have to say, well, they don't want to go all the way and say, yes, this is stolen land.
00:40:34.820 Give it back to the Comanche.
00:40:36.700 That's a little too radical and it's totally unjustifiable.
00:40:40.580 But so what do they have to say?
00:40:41.320 Oh, shucks.
00:40:41.900 I don't know.
00:40:42.380 They have to do the Tim Walls.
00:40:43.940 I'm just a middle-aged white guy knucklehead.
00:40:46.280 I don't know.
00:40:46.900 What's stolen land?
00:40:48.580 What's a country?
00:40:49.660 I don't know.
00:40:50.340 I'm just the head of Netflix.
00:40:53.360 You're a major American CEO.
00:40:55.340 You can't describe what a country is.
00:40:57.200 Because that's the question.
00:40:59.220 And so what Senator Cruz is doing here is he's recognizing five years ago, the big question
00:41:05.800 was, what is a woman?
00:41:07.160 Because five years ago, from the big issue that showed the Democrats' impaired judgment
00:41:12.180 was transgenderism.
00:41:13.860 It's not that guys playing on girls' tennis teams or guys going into the girls' bathroom,
00:41:18.480 it's not that those were the biggest issues.
00:41:21.300 It's that those were the issues that most clearly showed the impairment of judgment in the Democrats.
00:41:28.940 You don't know what a woman is.
00:41:29.820 You don't know anything.
00:41:31.120 That's why it was such a big issue.
00:41:32.560 It was because it was so crazy.
00:41:34.760 In 2026, the question is, what is an American?
00:41:38.840 What is a nation?
00:41:39.740 In 2026, the issue is not transgenderism, but it's immigration.
00:41:45.660 That's what largely impelled Trump to a popular vote victory.
00:41:49.500 That's what's causing the riots in the streets, is because most Americans voted for mass deportations,
00:41:55.000 but the libs don't want to give up their mass migration because they are counting on mass
00:41:59.580 migration to fundamentally alter the demographics and the political order so that they can have
00:42:03.560 a permanent electoral majority.
00:42:04.880 That's what it's about.
00:42:05.520 That's all the underlying issues.
00:42:06.800 And so this is the what is a woman question for 2026.
00:42:13.880 Is this stolen land?
00:42:15.620 What is a nation?
00:42:17.220 What is America?
00:42:18.320 What is an American?
00:42:19.760 That's what we're talking about.
00:42:21.940 And it's a harder question to answer, by the way.
00:42:24.960 Actually, it's worth pointing out, what is a woman is a hard question to answer.
00:42:29.420 I know the answer that some of the people on the right settled on was,
00:42:32.240 it's a biological female or whatever.
00:42:34.820 It's a human female, but that doesn't really answer the question because a woman is more
00:42:40.760 than that.
00:42:41.180 A woman is more than chromosomes.
00:42:42.680 My answer to that question always was, what is a woman?
00:42:45.620 I'd say a woman is sugar, spice, and everything nice.
00:42:49.000 That answer actually is truer.
00:42:51.620 That gets at more of what a woman is than to say it's a person with two X chromosomes or
00:42:56.080 whatever.
00:42:57.200 It's tricky.
00:42:57.760 What is a woman?
00:42:58.380 Is it truly we're just reduced to our bodies?
00:43:02.200 We're just bags of meat?
00:43:04.040 Just a womb?
00:43:05.620 What about women who have had a hysterectomy?
00:43:08.220 Isn't a woman more than that?
00:43:10.720 Does a woman not have a telos, a purpose, behaviors that go along with being a woman, qualities,
00:43:19.560 some of which are ineffable even?
00:43:22.320 Isn't there more to it than that?
00:43:24.840 Same thing with what is a nation?
00:43:26.560 What is America?
00:43:27.260 What is an American?
00:43:29.180 What's quite, I don't know what the answer is.
00:43:31.000 It's not just the Mayflower, though that's a great cigar, but it's not just the Pilgrims.
00:43:36.840 You know, it's not just Jamestown.
00:43:38.020 It's not just the American Revolution.
00:43:39.380 It's not just the Wasps.
00:43:40.380 It's not, what is it?
00:43:43.500 A little trickier to answer.
00:43:46.340 And yet we all kind of know it when we see it, right?
00:43:50.420 Because when the Libs ask this question, they say, how is anyone illegal on stolen land?
00:43:55.920 They seem much more ridiculous, as proven by the Tongva tribe.
00:44:00.600 The Tongva tribe just came out and responded to Billie Eilish.
00:44:04.840 Billie Eilish, who I played on the show yesterday, she says, no one's illegal on stolen land,
00:44:08.880 which is funny because it's a self-undermining claim.
00:44:12.500 If no one is illegal on stolen land, then it means that no one has committed a crime, right?
00:44:18.760 No one's criminal on stolen land.
00:44:20.360 But if no one's committed a crime, and stealing is a crime, then the land is itself not stolen.
00:44:26.980 If no one's illegal on stolen land, then the land isn't stolen.
00:44:33.740 She's not like a professor of logic, so I don't know if that occurred to her.
00:44:36.920 But the Tongva realized there was another problem with her claim.
00:44:39.220 Namely, Billie Eilish has never offered the Tongva, whose land it supposedly is, any of her land,
00:44:48.300 never offered her her house, never gave her a single penny.
00:44:52.740 And furthermore, Billie Eilish never even says who the land was stolen from.
00:44:58.480 The Tongva tribe, this is according to the New York Post.
00:45:03.880 The Tongva tribe confirmed that Eilish's $3 million home does sit on its ancestral land
00:45:11.500 after this 24-year-old gal used her Grammy's acceptance speech to rail against ICE.
00:45:16.360 The indigenous inhabitants of LA, known as the First Angelenos,
00:45:21.500 known by whom? I don't know, I don't call them that,
00:45:24.280 said that they appreciate Eilish's sentiment,
00:45:26.080 but noted that the performer has not contacted them directly
00:45:29.340 and insisted that next time she explicitly reference them.
00:45:32.620 But here's the problem.
00:45:33.360 The reason that she won't explicitly reference them is, one,
00:45:36.800 the libs don't really care.
00:45:38.240 They don't want to do anything about it.
00:45:39.960 They certainly don't intend to give even one square inch of their land
00:45:43.340 back to whatever people they say really own it.
00:45:47.700 But furthermore, the minute you name the people,
00:45:51.360 then you can point to the other people that those people stole it from.
00:45:55.660 That's one of the big issues.
00:45:57.000 So you do sometimes see this, especially in academia,
00:45:59.460 you hear these land acknowledgements.
00:46:01.200 I recognize that I'm on the ancestral land of the Lakota and the Cheyenne
00:46:06.920 and the didgeridoo or whatever.
00:46:09.660 But notice, even there,
00:46:11.960 when they say we're on the ancestral land of this tribe,
00:46:14.240 it's usually multiple tribes.
00:46:15.920 And it has to be multiple tribes,
00:46:17.540 not because they were all living together,
00:46:18.840 Kumbaya and some kind of confederacy.
00:46:20.500 It's multiple tribes because those tribes stole the land from each other.
00:46:23.040 Or, more precisely, took the land.
00:46:27.860 Either because of migration or because of wars of conquest
00:46:30.720 or perhaps because of treaties.
00:46:33.400 Same way America got our land.
00:46:35.660 So his claims are self-undermining.
00:46:37.500 That is why, though,
00:46:38.760 you ain't going to get Billie Eilish talking about the Tonga.
00:46:41.100 And you certainly aren't going to get her
00:46:42.560 to give anything to the Tonga anytime soon.
00:46:44.720 All of which leads us to the final point.
00:46:47.840 What is this about?
00:46:49.100 Why are the liberals,
00:46:51.520 why is that liberal woman going viral
00:46:53.280 for saying that she would murder her kids
00:46:55.360 sooner than be arrested by ICE?
00:46:57.800 Why are these unhinged white liberals,
00:47:00.660 men and women,
00:47:01.820 going out and getting themselves shot,
00:47:04.640 going out and provoking cops to shoot them
00:47:06.600 on behalf of protecting mass migration?
00:47:10.320 What is this all about?
00:47:12.400 Why are mothers and CNN encouraging boys,
00:47:16.840 teenage boys to skip school
00:47:18.020 to go obstruct law enforcement,
00:47:20.300 put themselves in dangerous situations?
00:47:22.120 What is the political unrest all about?
00:47:26.760 Senator Mark Warner, Democrat,
00:47:29.300 just told us on C-SPAN.
00:47:30.740 I remember back a year ago at this time
00:47:36.340 when people would often ask me
00:47:38.900 when they were seeing the actions
00:47:40.080 of the Trump administration,
00:47:42.740 you know,
00:47:42.920 do you think we'll have free and fair elections
00:47:44.740 in 26 or in 28?
00:47:47.620 And my response at that point was,
00:47:50.360 you know, I think you're overreacting.
00:47:53.420 I have deep concerns about the fairness
00:47:55.640 of our elections in 26 and 28 right now.
00:47:57.920 I have concerns about the elections
00:47:59.120 in primaries in our country.
00:48:01.100 I have a lot of concerns
00:48:01.880 about the elections
00:48:02.880 that may take place in Virginia
00:48:04.480 in terms of a redistricting referendum.
00:48:07.920 Okay.
00:48:09.120 You'll probably be jarred at first
00:48:11.060 because we were told
00:48:12.300 for about five years
00:48:14.360 that anyone who ever questions
00:48:16.480 the legitimacy of elections
00:48:17.820 is a terrible insurrectionist traitor
00:48:20.020 who needs to be thrown
00:48:21.080 in solitary confinement.
00:48:22.840 And now Mark Warner,
00:48:23.920 based on nothing,
00:48:25.240 is already questioning
00:48:26.400 the legitimacy of the 2026 and 2028
00:48:28.640 elections,
00:48:29.900 including primaries.
00:48:31.560 It's very strange,
00:48:32.920 especially because
00:48:33.860 when conservatives raised questions
00:48:36.940 about the election in 2020,
00:48:38.980 it was after the libs
00:48:40.880 had changed all the election rules,
00:48:42.380 in some cases,
00:48:43.140 illegally and unconstitutionally.
00:48:45.480 So there was this huge change.
00:48:47.120 I think it was fair
00:48:49.200 to question the elections
00:48:50.120 in that specific
00:48:51.620 once-in-a-lifetime circumstance
00:48:53.100 where you just change
00:48:54.180 all the election rules.
00:48:54.860 You get rid of a lot of the protections
00:48:56.700 that protect against fraud.
00:48:59.600 But before 2020,
00:49:01.240 it was basically only the Democrats
00:49:02.600 who questioned elections.
00:49:03.640 And they questioned Bush v. Gore,
00:49:05.940 took that one all the way
00:49:06.720 to the Supreme Court.
00:49:08.060 They didn't really question 2004
00:49:09.720 because Bush won it so handily.
00:49:11.260 Then they won in 2008-2012.
00:49:14.200 They questioned 2020.
00:49:16.280 They changed the election rules
00:49:17.940 in 2020.
00:49:22.240 And then
00:49:23.020 already now,
00:49:25.640 we're just after the 2024 election,
00:49:27.160 they're saying 2026, 2028
00:49:28.640 are going to be rigged.
00:49:29.600 So it means they're probably
00:49:31.360 not feeling as good about it
00:49:32.300 as they previously did.
00:49:33.920 And two,
00:49:35.140 they're trying to set the stage
00:49:37.920 for political violence,
00:49:40.920 for political unrest.
00:49:42.020 That's why
00:49:43.040 these riots are happening now.
00:49:45.040 Notice,
00:49:45.520 the riots weren't happening
00:49:46.600 in the first part of the year
00:49:47.920 with the Trump administration.
00:49:49.780 You had mass deportations
00:49:50.740 almost immediately.
00:49:52.640 Wasn't really kicking up then.
00:49:54.300 It's kicking up now
00:49:55.320 that we're looking ahead
00:49:56.020 to the midterms.
00:49:57.180 And they probably started
00:49:57.900 it a little too early.
00:49:58.700 Winter is not the best time
00:50:00.020 to riot.
00:50:00.960 Especially when the libs
00:50:02.020 who are,
00:50:02.500 you know,
00:50:03.120 they're sensitive.
00:50:03.800 They don't like the cold that much.
00:50:05.020 But that's what this is about.
00:50:06.420 The reason it's kicking up
00:50:07.400 in 2020,
00:50:08.540 almost basically immediately
00:50:09.680 after 2020 begins,
00:50:12.240 is because this is all
00:50:13.300 about the elections.
00:50:14.520 They want,
00:50:15.120 they have two objectives here.
00:50:16.460 One is
00:50:17.120 to create
00:50:17.980 great instability
00:50:19.000 that will allow them
00:50:20.240 to exert more control
00:50:21.260 over their elections,
00:50:22.600 which always opens
00:50:24.240 up the question of fraud.
00:50:26.220 But then two,
00:50:27.620 they want to
00:50:28.680 make a threat.
00:50:30.800 And the threat is
00:50:31.740 we're going to keep
00:50:32.700 violently rioting
00:50:34.020 if we don't get our way.
00:50:35.060 That's what they're after.
00:50:36.500 It's all about
00:50:37.220 the election,
00:50:38.340 of course.
00:50:39.080 And we'll see.
00:50:40.460 As an issue,
00:50:41.740 the immigration matter
00:50:42.580 works for Republicans.
00:50:44.660 Republicans are totally
00:50:45.640 on the right side
00:50:46.200 of immigration
00:50:46.700 by basically
00:50:48.280 any public opinion poll.
00:50:51.320 In terms of
00:50:52.140 the political violence,
00:50:53.160 the left might be able
00:50:53.780 to ram their way through.
00:50:55.560 That remains to be seen.
00:50:56.380 Okay,
00:50:56.660 before we go to member block,
00:50:58.160 I want to remind you all
00:50:59.200 that tomorrow

00:51:26.680 What was it like, Merlin,
00:51:41.480 to be alone with God?
00:51:48.520 Is that who you think
00:51:49.620 I was alone with?
00:51:54.680 Meriton,
00:51:55.500 I knew your father.
00:51:56.680 I am yet convinced
00:51:58.040 that he was not
00:51:58.760 of this world.
00:52:02.200 All men know
00:52:03.540 of the great Taliesin.
00:52:05.540 You are my father,
00:52:06.720 that the gods
00:52:07.240 should war for my soul.
00:52:09.840 Princess Garrus,
00:52:11.400 the saviour of our people.
00:52:15.360 I know what the bull god offered you.
00:52:17.880 I was offered the same.
00:52:19.920 And?
00:52:21.380 There is a new power
00:52:22.400 at work in the world.
00:52:23.540 I've seen it.
00:52:24.160 A god who sacrifices
00:52:26.900 what he loves for us.
00:52:28.320 We are each given
00:52:28.960 only one life, Singer.
00:52:31.020 No.
00:52:32.140 And we're given another.
00:52:32.940 I learnt of Yezu the Christ.
00:52:38.300 And I have become his follower.
00:52:40.200 He's waiting on a miracle.
00:52:41.720 And I think you can give him one.
00:52:43.780 Trust in Yezu.
00:52:45.100 He is the only hope
00:52:46.240 for men like us.
00:52:47.640 Vader Britain never rests
00:52:49.260 in the hands of the great light.
00:52:51.040 Great light?
00:52:52.180 Great darkness?
00:52:53.620 Such things mattered to me then.
00:52:56.100 What matters to you now,
00:52:57.380 mistress of lies?
00:52:59.640 You.
00:53:01.280 Nephew.
00:53:01.800 The sword of a high king.
00:53:08.540 How many lives must be lost
00:53:10.420 before you accept the power
00:53:12.040 you were born to wield?
00:53:16.340 Circling to the promises
00:53:17.680 of a god who has abandoned you.
00:53:19.600 I cannot take up that sword again.
00:53:22.500 You know what you must do.
00:53:25.800 Great light, forgive me.
00:53:27.180 The time has come
00:53:35.900 to be reborn.
