00:00:11.000 I would say land is a safe investment.

00:00:13.000 Technology companies.

00:00:15.000 Solar energy.

00:00:16.000 Robotic pollinators might be a thing. 1.00

00:00:18.000 A wrestler to face a robot?

00:00:20.000 That will have to happen.

00:00:30.000 Fresh on the heels of congressional Democrats

00:00:32.000 refusing to stand up to oppose political violence

00:00:35.000 at the State of the Union,

00:00:36.000 a Democrat representative is now arguing

00:00:39.000 that Charlie Kirk was not even assassinated.

00:00:43.000 Then, AOC and Zoran Mamdani encourage illegal aliens

00:00:46.000 to sign up for the taxpayer-funded childcare

00:00:49.000 that they supposedly are ineligible for.

00:00:52.000 You remember that?

00:00:53.000 You remember when the Democrats told us

00:00:54.000 they don't get a penny?

00:00:55.000 Anyway, free childcare must be nice.

00:00:57.000 And, finally, an elite Air Force pilot

00:01:00.000 allegedly committed treason with the Chinese.

00:01:03.000 But is America still patriotic enough

00:01:06.000 to execute traitors?

00:01:07.000 I'm not sure that we are.

00:01:08.000 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:01:09.000 Michael Knowles.

00:01:10.000 This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:12.000 The absolute best reaction to the State of the Union

00:01:31.000 has finally come in thanks to the ladies at The View, 0.59

00:01:33.000 Whoopi in particular,

00:01:35.000 who says that it was insanely rude of President Trump

00:01:40.000 to honor the gold medal-winning U.S. hockey team.

00:01:44.000 I love it.

00:01:45.000 And then they quickly cut to commercial

00:01:47.000 because the Democrats realize this is a bad look.

00:01:49.000 But they're going all the way, baby.

00:01:51.000 The Dems are now opposed to the U.S. Olympic hockey team.

00:01:57.000 You know, I thought we were gonna get demolished

00:01:59.000 in the midterms.

00:02:00.000 Who knows?

00:02:01.000 At this rate, with the way Democrats are going,

00:02:03.000 we'll actually hold the house.

00:02:05.000 Before we get to anything,

00:02:06.000 I want to tell you about preborn.

00:02:07.000 Go to preborn.com slash Knowles.

00:02:09.000 80,000 babies.

00:02:11.000 That's how many lives were saved last year

00:02:13.000 through our sponsor, Preborn,

00:02:15.000 and their supporters like you.

00:02:16.000 Right now, thousands of women are being told 0.89

00:02:18.000 the same heartbreaking lie,

00:02:20.000 that abortion is their only choice,

00:02:22.000 that they're on their own,

00:02:23.000 that there's no way forward.

00:02:24.000 But everything shifts the moment

00:02:26.000 an expectant mother walks into a preborn network clinic 0.98

00:02:29.000 and sees her baby on that ultrasound screen.

00:02:31.000 In that instant, her chance of choosing life doubles.

00:02:33.000 Suddenly, it's not abstract anymore.

00:02:35.000 It is her baby created in God's image,

00:02:37.000 a sacred life meant to be cherished and protected.

00:02:39.000 When she hears that heartbeat for the very first time,

00:02:42.000 a beautiful bond is formed.

00:02:45.000 Today, we can all support a mother in need.

00:02:48.000 One preborn donor put it beautifully,

00:02:50.000 my mother chose life,

00:02:51.000 that is the only reason I'm here today,

00:02:53.000 and that's exactly why I give to preborn,

00:02:54.000 so other mothers can make the same choice. 1.00

00:02:56.000 A donation of 28 bucks provides one ultrasound

00:02:59.000 that could double a baby's chance at life.

00:03:01.000 I love this organization.

00:03:02.000 I personally support it.

00:03:24.000 Ashley Viola Gant.

00:03:26.000 This is a Democrat state representative.

00:03:29.000 Coming out, this clip is going viral

00:03:32.000 in the wake of President Trump's State of the Union,

00:03:35.000 in which he really exposed the Democrats.

00:03:38.000 He pointed to Erica Kirk,

00:03:40.000 who was in the gallery,

00:03:42.000 and he said, Erica,

00:03:44.000 my great friend Charlie,

00:03:45.000 his beautiful widow Erica is here,

00:03:47.000 and this is a reminder

00:03:49.000 that we are one nation under God,

00:03:51.000 and we must oppose political violence of all kinds.

00:03:56.000 And the Republicans stood up.

00:03:58.000 Some Democrats stood up.

00:04:00.000 A lot of Democrats wouldn't even stand up for that.

00:04:02.000 Wouldn't even stand up to oppose political violence of all kinds

00:04:07.000 with Charlie's widow sitting there in the gallery.

00:04:10.000 In the wake of that,

00:04:12.000 this clip is going viral

00:04:13.000 of a Democrat state representative,

00:04:15.000 not only mocking Charlie Kirk,

00:04:18.000 but denying that he was assassinated at all.

00:04:24.000 We want to talk about exercise and free speech.

00:04:26.000 Let's ball.

00:04:27.000 So the First Amendment protects free speech.

00:04:30.000 We don't need this day of remembrance

00:04:31.000 for a man that was mediocre and racist.

00:04:33.000 And I say mediocre at best.

00:04:35.000 He was not a Floridian.

00:04:37.000 He had no ties to Florida other than owning property.

00:04:41.000 We have a number of Floridians,

00:04:45.000 both individuals and organizations,

00:04:48.000 that promote free speech that is not divisive

00:04:51.000 like this individual was.

00:04:54.000 If we want to talk about free speech,

00:04:56.000 let's talk about being precise with our words.

00:04:59.000 When we hear assassination,

00:05:01.000 that's typically related to a person

00:05:04.000 and a political position.

00:05:06.000 Charlie Kirk died from gun violence.

00:05:09.000 Okay.

00:05:10.000 We continuously advocate for gun policy legislation

00:05:15.000 that would ensure that people

00:05:16.000 that probably shouldn't have a gun don't have a gun. 1.00

00:05:19.000 So was his passing tragic for those who love him?

00:05:23.000 Absolutely.

00:05:24.000 There is no denying that.

00:05:26.000 But he was not assassinated.

00:05:27.000 And words being accurate matters.

00:05:30.000 It was a death by gun violence.

00:05:32.000 They want to kill you.

00:05:34.000 In case you haven't gotten the message,

00:05:36.000 in case you didn't get the message

00:05:37.000 at the State of the Union

00:05:38.000 when the Democrats wouldn't even stand up

00:05:40.000 for the mother of Irina Zarutska

00:05:42.000 to oppose even that kind of street level violence.

00:05:44.000 They want to kill you.

00:05:46.000 Listen to this language this woman uses. 0.98

00:05:48.000 It's not just that she is denying

00:05:51.000 that the most prominent political assassination

00:05:54.000 of the last quarter century for many of us

00:05:58.000 of our lifetimes occurred.

00:06:02.000 She's also mocking the guy who was assassinated.

00:06:04.000 She comes out from the top. 0.82

00:06:05.000 She says, this guy was mediocre at best, at best.

00:06:09.000 Charlie Kirk, one of the most impressive,

00:06:11.000 one of the most impressive people of his generation

00:06:14.000 and in the country.

00:06:16.000 Charlie Kirk, master political organizer,

00:06:19.000 a guy who the White House chief of staff said

00:06:23.000 made the winning difference in 2024.

00:06:26.000 Guy who won a presidential election,

00:06:28.000 built the biggest youth activist organization

00:06:30.000 in the country, master fundraiser,

00:06:33.000 incredible debater.

00:06:34.000 The list goes on and on and on.

00:06:36.000 Moved the youth vote probably 10 points

00:06:38.000 in the presidential election.

00:06:40.000 She says he's mediocre at best,

00:06:42.000 but you know, his death was tragic

00:06:45.000 for those who loved him.

00:06:47.000 She's making clear she did not love him.

00:06:49.000 Many Democrats have made clear

00:06:50.000 they did not love him.

00:06:52.000 The conclusion being is death

00:06:54.000 wasn't even really tragic,

00:06:55.000 at least for most of us.

00:06:56.000 But then they go even further.

00:06:58.000 Not only was his assassination not tragic,

00:07:01.000 she says it wasn't even an assassination.

00:07:03.000 And here, I don't think this woman 1.00

00:07:06.000 is lying exactly because I'm not convinced

00:07:09.000 that this woman has a firm grasp

00:07:11.000 on the English language.

00:07:12.000 She might just not know

00:07:14.000 what the word assassination means,

00:07:17.000 but assassination is a targeted killing

00:07:21.000 of a prominent person

00:07:24.000 for political or religious reasons.

00:07:26.000 That's what an assassination is.

00:07:28.000 Would you say that Charlie Kirk

00:07:30.000 was a prominent person

00:07:32.000 who was killed for political reasons?

00:07:35.000 All the evidence we have suggests so.

00:07:37.000 A radical leftist wrote,

00:07:39.000 catch this fascist on one of the bullet. 0.88

00:07:42.000 A guy who spelled out in text messages,

00:07:46.000 allegedly in all sorts of data

00:07:48.000 that will be presented in court,

00:07:49.000 spelled out his political motive

00:07:52.000 as a radical leftist to kill

00:07:54.000 one of the most prominent conservatives

00:07:55.000 in the country.

00:07:56.000 So how was this not an assassination?

00:07:58.000 Was Charlie Kirk not prominent?

00:08:00.000 Pretty sure he was more prominent

00:08:01.000 than Ashley Viola Gant.

00:08:03.000 Pretty sure he was one of the most prominent

00:08:05.000 political figures in the whole country.

00:08:06.000 Was his killing not politically motivated?

00:08:09.000 A radical leftist with a trans furry boyfriend 0.63

00:08:13.000 wrote his political motivations

00:08:15.000 literally on the bullets.

00:08:17.000 Was it was he not killed?

00:08:18.000 I think he was killed.

00:08:19.000 I think we would all agree he was killed.

00:08:22.000 So maybe I don't know,

00:08:24.000 maybe this woman was failed 0.81

00:08:25.000 by the school system.

00:08:26.000 Stranger things have happened

00:08:28.000 in our degraded educational culture,

00:08:30.000 but Charlie was assassinated.

00:08:32.000 So what is this?

00:08:33.000 This is a trend that we have seen

00:08:35.000 from the day Charlie was killed.

00:08:37.000 From from the moment it happened,

00:08:39.000 actually on MSNBC,

00:08:40.000 you had a Democrat political strategist

00:08:43.000 blaming Charlie for his own murder

00:08:45.000 as it was happening.

00:08:46.000 Lest you forget, lest we all forget

00:08:49.000 so much of that State of the Union

00:08:50.000 was reminding us of Trump's wins

00:08:53.000 that we've forgotten

00:08:54.000 and the Democrats perfidy,

00:08:55.000 the danger posed by Democrats

00:08:57.000 in political office.

00:08:58.000 Well, here it is.

00:08:59.000 Lest you forgot, Democrats minimized,

00:09:05.000 excused, justified, and even celebrated

00:09:08.000 the most prominent political assassination

00:09:11.000 for many of us in our lifetimes

00:09:13.000 of a guy who was the clearest proponent

00:09:16.000 of civil dialogue across the aisle

00:09:20.000 in the whole country.

00:09:22.000 This is minimizing Charlie's assassination.

00:09:25.000 This is a reminder that they want to kill you.

00:09:28.000 Even to say, he died from gun violence.

00:09:31.000 Yes, most assassinations,

00:09:33.000 many if not most assassinations

00:09:35.000 are gun violence.

00:09:37.000 But not all gun violence

00:09:38.000 is a political assassination.

00:09:39.000 It's like a square and a rectangle.

00:09:41.000 Probably, what's her name? 0.92

00:09:43.000 Ashley Viola Gantt probably didn't

00:09:45.000 catch that lesson in the third grade either.

00:09:47.000 But all squares are rectangles.

00:09:50.000 Not all rectangles are squares.

00:09:53.000 So you can chalk some of this up to ignorance.

00:09:56.000 There's a lot of ignorance here.

00:09:57.000 But there's a kind of a willful ignorance.

00:09:59.000 And they're going to try to shift this

00:10:00.000 heading into November.

00:10:01.000 After Charlie was killed,

00:10:02.000 what a lot of Democrats told us is,

00:10:05.000 yeah, he was killed.

00:10:06.000 And you're next if you don't shut up. 0.95

00:10:09.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:10:10.000 Maybe it was good that he was killed.

00:10:11.000 That's what they told us.

00:10:12.000 In public opinion poll after public opinion poll.

00:10:15.000 And now they're going to try to run

00:10:16.000 the Abigail Spanberger strategy

00:10:18.000 of pretending to be moderates

00:10:19.000 until they're elected

00:10:20.000 when they can implement

00:10:21.000 the most radically leftist agenda

00:10:22.000 you could possibly imagine.

00:10:25.000 But they can't even help themselves.

00:10:27.000 And so one of the lessons from,

00:10:29.000 it was a tremendous State of the Union.

00:10:30.000 We keep drawing lessons from it.

00:10:31.000 One of the lessons though is,

00:10:33.000 keep baiting the Democrats.

00:10:35.000 As they try to play the moderate,

00:10:36.000 keep baiting them.

00:10:37.000 Just bring them back to these basic points.

00:10:39.000 Hey, do you oppose all political violence?

00:10:42.000 Hey, do you think that America

00:10:44.000 should protect Americans

00:10:46.000 before it protects illegal aliens?

00:10:48.000 Hey, do you like US Olympic hockey?

00:10:51.000 Right down to it.

00:10:52.000 Because they can't help themselves.

00:10:54.000 It was a real gamble

00:10:56.000 when President Trump was using

00:10:57.000 all of those applause lines

00:10:59.000 at the State of the Union.

00:11:01.000 It was a real gamble

00:11:02.000 when he pointed to the mother

00:11:04.000 of Irina Zarutska,

00:11:06.000 daring the Democrats to sit down.

00:11:08.000 The clearest example being,

00:11:09.000 hey, stand up if you think America

00:11:11.000 is for Americans

00:11:12.000 above illegal aliens.

00:11:13.000 Had the Democrats stood up,

00:11:14.000 it would have taken the wind

00:11:15.000 out of his sails,

00:11:16.000 but they couldn't.

00:11:17.000 That's the message.

00:11:18.000 Keep pushing them on this.

00:11:20.000 They'll tell you

00:11:21.000 what they think of Charlie Kirk.

00:11:22.000 They'll tell you

00:11:23.000 what they think of you too.

00:11:24.000 Let them do that.

00:11:25.000 Put that on display

00:11:26.000 for the voters in November.

00:11:28.000 Okay.

00:11:29.000 Speaking of violence and education,

00:11:33.000 the FBI has just raided the home

00:11:35.000 of the LAUSD,

00:11:38.000 Los Angeles School System Superintendent.

00:11:42.000 A man who appears

00:11:44.000 to have been involved

00:11:45.000 in some other crimes,

00:11:46.000 but also we've discovered

00:11:48.000 is an illegal alien.

00:11:49.000 We'll get to that momentarily.

00:11:50.000 First, I want to tell you

00:11:51.000 about lean.

00:11:52.000 Go to takelean.com,

00:11:53.000 enter code Knowles.

00:11:54.000 This episode is sponsored

00:11:55.000 by Brickhouse Nutrition.

00:11:56.000 You've probably heard

00:11:57.000 about those weight loss injections

00:11:58.000 that everyone's been talking about,

00:12:00.000 and for good reason.

00:12:01.000 The results can be pretty incredible.

00:12:02.000 They work by helping regulate blood sugar

00:12:04.000 and keeping your appetite in check.

00:12:05.000 But here's the thing.

00:12:06.000 Not everyone wants

00:12:07.000 to deal with weekly injections,

00:12:08.000 especially when you start hearing

00:12:09.000 about some of the side effects

00:12:11.000 that can come with them.

00:12:12.000 That's where lean comes in.

00:12:13.000 It's a weight loss supplement

00:12:14.000 developed by doctors,

00:12:15.000 and people are seeing

00:12:16.000 really impressive results.

00:12:17.000 The ingredients in lean

00:12:18.000 are backed by research

00:12:19.000 showing that they can help

00:12:20.000 lower blood sugar,

00:12:21.000 turn stored fat into energy,

00:12:22.000 and reduce those constant cravings

00:12:56.000 According to reports,

00:12:58.000 the FBI has just raided the home

00:13:00.000 of the superintendent

00:13:02.000 of LAUSD.

00:13:05.000 This guy's name is Alberto Carvalho.

00:13:09.000 The reporting says

00:13:11.000 that this is tied to

00:13:13.000 an investigation involving

00:13:16.000 the failed AI company

00:13:17.000 all here.

00:13:19.000 The founder of that company

00:13:20.000 was charged with fraud

00:13:22.000 and the company had a contract

00:13:23.000 with LAUSD.

00:13:25.000 So, according to the reporting,

00:13:27.000 allegedly, allegedly,

00:13:28.000 reportedly, reportedly,

00:13:29.000 this guy was involved

00:13:31.000 in some fraudulent AI scheme.

00:13:35.000 Okay.

00:13:36.000 Got to give a hat tip

00:13:37.000 to my buddy Dave Rubin here

00:13:38.000 who pointed out,

00:13:39.000 I think it was Dave

00:13:40.000 who pointed out on Twitter

00:13:41.000 that Alberto Carvalho,

00:13:44.000 who has this very prominent position

00:13:46.000 in public life,

00:13:47.000 this is a public office,

00:13:49.000 superintendent of schools

00:13:50.000 is elected in many places,

00:13:52.000 or is at the very least

00:13:54.000 appointed by other elected

00:13:56.000 and appointed officials.

00:13:57.000 This guy is himself

00:14:00.000 an illegal alien.

00:14:02.000 I want to confess to you

00:14:03.000 for those of you

00:14:04.000 who may not know,

00:14:05.000 I would be a hypocrite

00:14:07.000 if I did not fight

00:14:08.000 for those who today

00:14:09.000 are facing conditions

00:14:11.000 that over 40 years

00:14:12.000 I faced

00:14:13.000 as an undocumented migrant

00:14:16.000 to this country.

00:14:17.000 I want to repeat that.

00:14:19.000 I would be the biggest hypocrite

00:14:22.000 in the world,

00:14:23.000 regardless of my position today,

00:14:25.000 if today I did not fight

00:14:28.000 for those who find themselves

00:14:30.000 in the same predicament

00:14:32.000 I faced over 40 years ago

00:14:34.000 when I arrived in this country

00:14:36.000 at the age of 17

00:14:38.000 as an undocumented immigrant.

00:14:41.000 education made me and saved me.

00:14:45.000 I became a teacher,

00:14:46.000 a principal,

00:14:47.000 a superintendent

00:14:48.000 leading the nation's

00:14:49.000 largest districts

00:14:50.000 four times selected

00:14:52.000 as national superintendent

00:14:53.000 of the year.

00:14:54.000 Do not underestimate

00:14:55.000 the power

00:14:56.000 of the immigrant child 0.61

00:14:58.000 who may very well

00:14:59.000 become an adult

00:15:00.000 who does well

00:15:01.000 and good by America.

00:15:03.000 If I come across

00:15:05.000 with a certain degree

00:15:06.000 of contempt and anger

00:15:07.000 contempt and anger,

00:15:08.000 I am.

00:15:09.000 I am.

00:15:10.000 I'm going to cut it off

00:15:12.000 right there

00:15:13.000 because I love that

00:15:14.000 as he's extolling

00:15:15.000 his great education,

00:15:16.000 how he's excelled

00:15:17.000 in education,

00:15:18.000 so much so that

00:15:19.000 he's one of the leaders

00:15:20.000 of education in America.

00:15:21.000 He demonstrates

00:15:22.000 that he still,

00:15:23.000 40 years later,

00:15:25.000 can't properly speak

00:15:26.000 the English language.

00:15:27.000 If I come across

00:15:29.000 with contempt,

00:15:30.000 I am.

00:15:32.000 Is this a Dr. Seuss story?

00:15:34.000 If I come across

00:15:35.000 with contempt,

00:15:36.000 I am.

00:15:38.000 The proper formulation

00:15:41.000 would be,

00:15:42.000 if I come across

00:15:43.000 with contempt,

00:15:44.000 I do,

00:15:45.000 or I intend to,

00:15:47.000 or that would be justified.

00:15:49.000 If I come across,

00:15:51.000 I am.

00:15:52.000 What is that?

00:15:53.000 So anyway,

00:15:54.000 not surprising

00:15:55.000 that the superintendent

00:15:56.000 of LA schools

00:15:57.000 doesn't speak English

00:15:58.000 very well,

00:15:59.000 based on the test scores

00:16:01.000 of the students

00:16:02.000 in the LA schools.

00:16:03.000 I love how this guy says,

00:16:04.000 I've done well by America.

00:16:06.000 I rose up to take one

00:16:07.000 of the most prominent

00:16:08.000 educational positions

00:16:09.000 in America.

00:16:10.000 I've done well by America.

00:16:11.000 Let's check the numbers.

00:16:12.000 Less than 47% of students

00:16:14.000 in LA schools

00:16:15.000 meet or exceed state standards

00:16:17.000 in English language arts.

00:16:19.000 The majority,

00:16:20.000 a clear majority of students

00:16:22.000 in LA schools

00:16:23.000 can't speak English good.

00:16:26.000 Only 36% of students

00:16:28.000 in LA schools

00:16:29.000 are proficient in math,

00:16:30.000 meeting or exceeding

00:16:31.000 meeting or exceeding

00:16:32.000 state standards.

00:16:34.000 So I'm,

00:16:35.000 I'm no math genius,

00:16:36.000 but I think that means

00:16:37.000 64% of,

00:16:39.000 of LA students

00:16:40.000 are failing in math,

00:16:42.000 according to state standards.

00:16:43.000 And this guy comes out,

00:16:44.000 he says,

00:16:45.000 Hey, listen to me, man.

00:16:46.000 I don't know.

00:16:47.000 He doesn't have quite

00:16:48.000 that thick an accent,

00:16:49.000 but he,

00:16:50.000 he doesn't really know

00:16:51.000 how to use English words.

00:16:52.000 He comes and he says,

00:16:53.000 Listen, I came here

00:16:54.000 as an illegal alien,

00:16:55.000 and then somehow I got

00:16:56.000 this big public position.

00:16:57.000 And now the majority

00:16:59.000 of students

00:17:00.000 in LA schools

00:17:01.000 are failing.

00:17:02.000 Open the border up.

00:17:04.000 Isn't that a great advertisement

00:17:05.000 for illegal immigration?

00:17:06.000 I don't think so.

00:17:07.000 I don't think so.

00:17:08.000 This also reminds us

00:17:11.000 that when the Libs say

00:17:12.000 that illegal aliens 1.00

00:17:13.000 aren't voting,

00:17:14.000 you need to press them on this.

00:17:16.000 One, they are.

00:17:17.000 But two,

00:17:18.000 you have to say,

00:17:19.000 No, no, no.

00:17:20.000 Not only are they voting,

00:17:21.000 they are holding public office.

00:17:22.000 Just last year,

00:17:23.000 there were what?

00:17:24.000 Two cases of mayors of towns

00:17:27.000 being caught,

00:17:28.000 not only voting

00:17:29.000 in elections illegally,

00:17:30.000 but winning elections

00:17:31.000 as illegal aliens.

00:17:32.000 They're not even

00:17:33.000 American citizens.

00:17:34.000 They're running American towns.

00:17:36.000 In this case,

00:17:37.000 an illegal alien

00:17:38.000 running LA schools.

00:17:39.000 I'm not sure

00:17:40.000 that LA schools

00:17:41.000 would be much better

00:17:42.000 even if an American citizen

00:17:43.000 were running them,

00:17:44.000 but maybe they'd have a shot.

00:17:45.000 In any case,

00:17:46.000 this guy says one thing

00:17:48.000 that is manifestly true.

00:17:51.000 He says,

00:17:52.000 Never underestimate the power

00:17:53.000 of an immigrant child.

00:17:55.000 And that statement is true,

00:17:57.000 but I don't know

00:17:58.000 if it's quite true

00:17:59.000 in the way that he means it.

00:18:01.000 One of the big drivers

00:18:03.000 of mass migration,

00:18:04.000 illegal immigration,

00:18:05.000 has been a birthright citizenship

00:18:07.000 applied to foreigners

00:18:09.000 from Latin America.

00:18:10.000 The reason that we have

00:18:11.000 birthright citizenship

00:18:13.000 per the 14th Amendment

00:18:14.000 is to deal with

00:18:16.000 the children of slaves.

00:18:17.000 Because we had just abolished slavery

00:18:21.000 and there had been

00:18:22.000 Supreme Court decisions

00:18:23.000 declaring that black people 0.97

00:18:26.000 and slaves could not be

00:18:27.000 American citizens.

00:18:28.000 And so the 14th Amendment 0.54

00:18:29.000 clarifies that and says

00:18:30.000 they're American citizens.

00:18:31.000 And there are exclusions,

00:18:32.000 people who are subject

00:18:34.000 to foreign jurisdictions

00:18:35.000 and et cetera.

00:18:37.000 But because of that,

00:18:39.000 in the 19th,

00:18:40.000 late 19th,

00:18:41.000 and then into the 20th centuries,

00:18:43.000 the proponents of mass illegal

00:18:45.000 immigration from Latin America

00:18:46.000 held onto that and said,

00:18:48.000 if you have a baby,

00:18:49.000 you can come over here

00:18:50.000 with the help of a cartel,

00:18:51.000 nine months pregnant,

00:18:52.000 pop out a kid

00:18:53.000 on the other side

00:18:54.000 of the Rio Grande,

00:18:55.000 and now you're good.

00:18:56.000 That kid's an American citizen

00:18:57.000 entitled to all the rights

00:18:58.000 of American citizens.

00:18:59.000 And one of those privileges

00:19:01.000 that goes along

00:19:02.000 with being an American citizen

00:19:03.000 is you're probably going to bring

00:19:04.000 the rest of your family

00:19:05.000 over here too.

00:19:06.000 Never underestimate

00:19:07.000 the power of that.

00:19:08.000 Never underestimate

00:19:09.000 the power of birthright citizenship

00:19:11.000 applied, I think,

00:19:12.000 wrongly in this case

00:19:13.000 to mass migration.

00:19:14.000 You have to fix that.

00:19:16.000 The Trump administration

00:19:17.000 is taking steps to fix that.

00:19:19.000 You have to fix

00:19:20.000 that perverse incentive.

00:19:21.000 That is not what the 14th Amendment

00:19:24.000 was intended to do.

00:19:26.000 Even if it were,

00:19:27.000 which it is not,

00:19:28.000 it's had a very deleterious effect

00:19:30.000 on the country.

00:19:31.000 It's totally eroded

00:19:32.000 national sovereignty.

00:19:33.000 And it brings us to the point

00:19:34.000 where illegal aliens

00:19:35.000 are voting in our elections.

00:19:36.000 They are winning elections.

00:19:38.000 They are being appointed

00:19:39.000 to prominent political positions

00:19:41.000 and they have contempt for America.

00:19:43.000 In their own words.

00:19:45.000 Speaking of the illegals, 0.98

00:19:46.000 Zoran Mamdani and AOC

00:19:49.000 have just come out

00:19:50.000 with an advertisement,

00:19:52.000 free childcare,

00:19:54.000 specifically for illegal aliens.

00:19:57.000 Now, I know this is kind of weird

00:19:58.000 because during that

00:19:59.000 last government shutdown,

00:20:00.000 I guess we're currently

00:20:01.000 in a partial government shutdown.

00:20:02.000 But during that last government

00:20:04.000 shutdown in the fall,

00:20:05.000 the Democrats, rather,

00:20:07.000 said that illegal aliens 0.99

00:20:09.000 do not receive welfare.

00:20:11.000 They don't get government benefits.

00:20:13.000 They're not eligible

00:20:14.000 for government benefits.

00:20:15.000 How dare you,

00:20:16.000 Republicans, suggest

00:20:17.000 that we're shutting down

00:20:18.000 the government

00:20:19.000 over giving freebies

00:20:20.000 to illegals.

00:20:21.000 Now, over the course

00:20:22.000 of that shutdown,

00:20:23.000 Democrats actually,

00:20:24.000 accidentally let it slip

00:20:26.000 that they are giving freebies

00:20:27.000 to illegals.

00:20:28.000 Well, now they're cutting

00:20:29.000 whole advertisements for it.

00:20:30.000 Here is Zoran and AOC

00:20:32.000 promoting free childcare

00:20:33.000 for illegals.

00:20:34.000 See if you can understand the ad.

00:20:37.000 Hola.

00:20:39.000 Mi español no es el mejor.

00:20:41.000 No, no te preocupes.

00:20:42.000 Here we go.

00:20:43.000 He's speaking Spanish.

00:20:44.000 If your child is 3 or 4 years old

00:20:49.000 in 2026,

00:20:50.000 you can enroll them for free

00:20:52.000 in 3K or pre-K

00:20:54.000 in New York City.

00:20:55.000 But you must apply

00:20:57.000 by February 27th,

00:20:59.000 which is the deadline.

00:21:01.000 Any New York City parent,

00:21:05.000 regardless of your occupation,

00:21:07.000 income or immigration status,

00:21:11.000 is eligible to sign their child up.

00:21:14.000 And there you have it.

00:21:15.000 So they open up

00:21:16.000 speaking a foreign language.

00:21:18.000 And Zoran jokes about it,

00:21:19.000 he says,

00:21:20.000 my Spanish is a little rusty.

00:21:21.000 Oh, don't worry,

00:21:22.000 Mr. Mayor.

00:21:23.000 It's okay.

00:21:24.000 We're going,

00:21:25.000 it doesn't matter.

00:21:26.000 Don't worry about

00:21:27.000 whether your Spanish is rusty.

00:21:29.000 You just have to pander

00:21:30.000 to this group of foreigners 0.98

00:21:32.000 who have taken over this city.

00:21:34.000 Oh, okay.

00:21:35.000 Well, I was elected by immigrants,

00:21:38.000 thinks Zoran,

00:21:40.000 implicitly states Zoran.

00:21:42.000 And so, yeah, that's fine.

00:21:43.000 Okay.

00:21:44.000 Well, the illegals are going 1.00

00:21:45.000 to get free childcare.

00:21:46.000 First of all,

00:21:48.000 free childcare would probably

00:21:50.000 be pretty nice, right?

00:21:51.000 I have friends,

00:21:52.000 I have family members

00:21:53.000 who have a kid or two kids

00:21:56.000 who I bet you

00:21:58.000 would be open to having a third kid.

00:22:01.000 Maybe having a fourth kid.

00:22:03.000 Certainly having a second kid,

00:22:05.000 in many cases,

00:22:06.000 if they didn't have to worry

00:22:07.000 about the cost of childcare.

00:22:09.000 Used to be when people lived

00:22:10.000 around their extended families,

00:22:12.000 there was childcare built in.

00:22:13.000 You had three sisters

00:22:14.000 living on the same street

00:22:15.000 and they'd all watch the kids

00:22:16.000 and they'd all,

00:22:17.000 and as our society

00:22:18.000 has atomized,

00:22:19.000 that has disappeared.

00:22:20.000 As our society

00:22:21.000 has had fewer kids,

00:22:22.000 there are fewer sisters 0.85

00:22:23.000 and aunts and uncles

00:22:24.000 to hang around

00:22:25.000 and watch the kids.

00:22:26.000 Childcare, in any case,

00:22:27.000 has become more expensive.

00:22:28.000 As feminism has forced 1.00

00:22:30.000 more and more women 1.00

00:22:31.000 into the workplace,

00:22:32.000 childcare has become

00:22:33.000 more important.

00:22:34.000 It's become professionalized

00:22:35.000 to an even greater degree

00:22:37.000 and it's very, very expensive.

00:22:38.000 How much does childcare cost?

00:22:40.000 If you want a nanny, 0.96

00:22:42.000 what a nanny could be, 1.00

00:22:44.000 $40,000 a year.

00:22:47.000 Or more.

00:22:48.000 If you have a full-time nanny,

00:22:49.000 it could be $50,000 a year.

00:22:51.000 Or $60,000 a year.

00:22:53.000 If you want to just do

00:22:54.000 a regular old daycare program

00:22:55.000 where you go down the street,

00:22:56.000 what does that cost?

00:22:57.000 That can cost $15,000 a year

00:22:59.000 or more.

00:23:00.000 It can cost up to $30,000 a year.

00:23:01.000 Tens of thousands of dollars.

00:23:03.000 When you consider taxes

00:23:05.000 on your income,

00:23:06.000 you are not that far off

00:23:07.000 from a full salary.

00:23:09.000 So, your wife has to go to work 1.00

00:23:12.000 so that some guy can pay you,

00:23:13.000 so that you can pay

00:23:14.000 some lady or some company

00:23:15.000 to watch your kids

00:23:16.000 and it's basically

00:23:17.000 just a transfer of the salary.

00:23:18.000 It's very, very expensive.

00:23:19.000 Unless you're an illegal.

00:23:21.000 If you're an illegal, 0.88

00:23:22.000 you don't need to worry about that.

00:23:23.000 Now, this is for any parent

00:23:24.000 in New York City.

00:23:25.000 Okay, but that includes

00:23:27.000 illegal aliens.

00:23:28.000 And guess who's paying for that?

00:23:29.000 You are.

00:23:30.000 Even if you don't live in New York,

00:23:32.000 you're paying for that.

00:23:33.000 When the Democrats

00:23:34.000 try to tell you no,

00:23:35.000 first they'll say,

00:23:36.000 illegal aliens

00:23:37.000 don't get government benefits.

00:23:38.000 And then you point them

00:23:39.000 to that video.

00:23:40.000 You say, look,

00:23:41.000 I know you guys were speaking

00:23:42.000 in a secret language there.

00:23:43.000 You thought I didn't understand,

00:23:44.000 but I have Google Translate

00:23:45.000 and they say

00:23:46.000 they're giving childcare

00:23:47.000 to illegals.

00:23:48.000 And they say, okay,

00:23:49.000 well, yeah, all right.

00:23:50.000 I guess illegals get government 1.00

00:23:51.000 handouts,

00:23:52.000 but not federal handouts.

00:23:53.000 They're just getting local handouts

00:23:54.000 in the cities.

00:23:55.000 You say, well,

00:23:56.000 that's a lie too.

00:23:57.000 You know why that's a lie?

00:23:58.000 Because New York City

00:24:00.000 gets seven and a half billion dollars

00:24:01.000 a year directly

00:24:02.000 from the federal government.

00:24:04.000 And that's the tip

00:24:05.000 of the iceberg.

00:24:06.000 New York City gets

00:24:07.000 seven and a half billion dollars

00:24:08.000 a year from the federal government.

00:24:09.000 That is from your pockets.

00:24:10.000 But when you add in things like

00:24:13.000 the transit system,

00:24:14.000 the education system,

00:24:15.000 when you add in all

00:24:16.000 of those federal grants,

00:24:17.000 you're looking at like

00:24:18.000 a hundred billion dollars a year.

00:24:21.000 So not only does New York City

00:24:22.000 rely on the federal government,

00:24:24.000 on your money,

00:24:25.000 for a huge portion

00:24:26.000 of its official city budget,

00:24:29.000 but it relies on you

00:24:31.000 for like a hundred billion dollars

00:24:33.000 of its spending.

00:24:35.000 And what is New York City

00:24:37.000 going to say?

00:24:38.000 Well, no, no, no.

00:24:39.000 We're only using these dollars

00:24:41.000 on freebies for illegals,

00:24:43.000 not your dollars

00:24:44.000 from your federal taxes.

00:24:46.000 You can't say that

00:24:47.000 because money is fungible.

00:24:49.000 So the very fact

00:24:50.000 that New York City

00:24:51.000 is getting a hundred billion dollars

00:24:52.000 a year from your federal taxes

00:24:53.000 allows it to spend

00:24:55.000 some of that other money

00:24:56.000 on the illegals.

00:24:58.000 You can't just neatly parse

00:24:59.000 the money like that.

00:25:00.000 This is something

00:25:02.000 the Republicans have to point out

00:25:03.000 relentlessly in the midterms.

00:25:07.000 Federal money,

00:25:09.000 every single American

00:25:10.000 who pays taxes,

00:25:11.000 which I guess would exclude

00:25:12.000 the illegals largely,

00:25:13.000 but every American

00:25:14.000 who pays taxes

00:25:15.000 is paying for free childcare

00:25:17.000 for illegals.

00:25:18.000 Where's your free childcare?

00:25:20.000 Where's your,

00:25:21.000 this is not just people

00:25:22.000 trying to, you know,

00:25:23.000 make an extra dollar.

00:25:24.000 This is not just envy.

00:25:25.000 This is having real effects.

00:25:27.000 We have a below replacement

00:25:28.000 birth rate in America.

00:25:29.000 A big part of that is because

00:25:30.000 childcare is very expensive.

00:25:31.000 Why are we paying for childcare

00:25:33.000 for illegals in New York City

00:25:34.000 and you're not getting childcare?

00:25:36.000 Why are you,

00:25:37.000 why are you made to pay for that?

00:25:39.000 And why are the Democrats

00:25:40.000 admitting it

00:25:42.000 in a foreign language

00:25:43.000 and then telling you

00:25:44.000 it's not happening?

00:25:45.000 Relieving themselves

00:25:46.000 on your leg

00:25:47.000 and telling you that

00:25:48.000 it is raining.

00:25:50.000 Speaking of foreign problems 1.00

00:25:53.000 and mass migration,

00:25:55.000 we are seeing

00:25:56.000 the civilization ending effects

00:25:58.000 of mass migration

00:26:00.000 in Austria

00:26:01.000 and Germany right now.

00:26:02.000 And it's coming

00:26:03.000 to a city near you.

00:26:04.000 We'll get to that momentarily.

00:26:05.000 First, I want to tell you

00:26:06.000 about Boland Branch.

00:26:07.000 Go to bolandbranch.com

00:26:08.000 slash Knowles,

00:26:09.000 K-N-A-W-L-E-S. 1.00

00:26:10.000 Folks, sheets

00:26:11.000 do not usually fail

00:26:12.000 all at once.

00:26:13.000 It's never a dramatic moment

00:26:15.000 where your sheets

00:26:16.000 just explode.

00:26:17.000 You're sleeping on them

00:26:18.000 and they just,

00:26:19.000 they evaporate or something.

00:26:20.000 It's those small things

00:26:21.000 that creep up on you.

00:26:22.000 The corners

00:26:23.000 that won't stay tucked.

00:26:24.000 The fabric that feels

00:26:25.000 a little thinner,

00:26:26.000 a little scratchier

00:26:27.000 than you remember.

00:26:28.000 You're waking up warmer

00:26:29.000 than you should be,

00:26:30.000 tossing around more than usual

00:26:31.000 and you just

00:26:32.000 don't feel as comfortable

00:26:33.000 as you used to.

00:26:34.000 Here's the thing.

00:26:35.000 You don't always realize

00:26:37.000 how bad your sheets

00:26:38.000 have gotten

00:26:39.000 until you finally

00:26:40.000 replace them.

00:26:41.000 That is why you need to upgrade

00:26:42.000 to our sponsor,

00:26:43.000 Boland Branch.

00:26:44.000 If your sheets are

00:26:45.000 pilling, thinning,

00:26:46.000 slipping off your mattress

00:26:47.000 or making you overheat at night,

00:26:48.000 that is your sign.

00:26:49.000 I love Boland Branch sheets.

00:26:52.000 I love them.

00:26:53.000 I love them.

00:26:54.000 I've had them for almost

00:26:56.000 a decade now.

00:26:57.000 I've had many kinds

00:26:59.000 of Boland Branch sheets.

00:27:00.000 I have their beautiful

00:27:01.000 waffle blanket.

00:27:02.000 I have personally ordered

00:27:03.000 Boland Branch sheets.

00:27:04.000 I've given them to family

00:27:05.000 and friends.

00:27:06.000 Multiple US presidents

00:27:07.000 have slept on them

00:27:08.000 and your favorite podcaster.

00:27:25.000 This one hits close

00:27:26.000 to home.

00:27:27.000 I love talking about

00:27:29.000 Christendom,

00:27:30.000 the glories of Christendom,

00:27:31.000 the great victories

00:27:32.000 of Christendom,

00:27:33.000 which is the civilization

00:27:34.000 that we now call

00:27:35.000 the West.

00:27:36.000 And what are the big battles?

00:27:38.000 What are the three big ones

00:27:40.000 I always bring up?

00:27:41.000 Battle of Poitiers,

00:27:42.000 sometimes called

00:27:43.000 the Battle of Tours,

00:27:44.000 732, Charles Martel

00:27:45.000 beats back the Muslims, 0.99

00:27:46.000 150 miles outside of Paris.

00:27:48.000 Battle of Lepanto,

00:27:50.000 1571,

00:27:51.000 the Holy League defeats

00:27:52.000 a much larger

00:27:54.000 Turkish army

00:27:56.000 or navy,

00:27:57.000 I guess,

00:27:58.000 defeats them.

00:27:59.000 This is the beginning

00:28:00.000 of the Feast of Our Lady

00:28:01.000 of Victory

00:28:02.000 because the Christendom

00:28:03.000 prayed the rosary

00:28:05.000 and we won the battle.

00:28:07.000 That was really great.

00:28:08.000 And then the third big one,

00:28:09.000 Battle of Vienna,

00:28:10.000 1683,

00:28:11.000 largest cavalry charge

00:28:12.000 in history

00:28:13.000 when Jan Sobieski

00:28:16.000 and the Christians

00:28:18.000 routed the Turkish forces

00:28:19.000 who were trying

00:28:20.000 to take over Europe.

00:28:21.000 So, obviously,

00:28:22.000 Sobieski is an Austrian hero,

00:28:25.000 but he's a Western hero generally.

00:28:28.000 This is one of the men

00:28:30.000 who saved Western civilization

00:28:31.000 in one of the pivotal moments.

00:28:32.000 So, Vienna wants to put up

00:28:34.000 a statue to one of,

00:28:36.000 maybe its greatest national hero.

00:28:39.000 And the Socialist Party

00:28:42.000 of Vienna opposes it.

00:28:44.000 Specifically,

00:28:45.000 a woman named

00:28:46.000 Aslihan Boza Temur.

00:28:49.000 Doesn't sound like

00:28:50.000 a very Austrian name,

00:28:51.000 does it?

00:28:52.000 You don't expect

00:28:53.000 to hear that name

00:28:54.000 in the sound of music.

00:28:55.000 The hills are alive.

00:28:57.000 You don't,

00:28:58.000 I don't think Aslihan 0.99

00:28:59.000 sings that song.

00:29:02.000 What does she say?

00:29:03.000 She's a member of parliament.

00:29:04.000 SPO city councilor says,

00:29:06.000 in Vienna,

00:29:07.000 there is no place

00:29:08.000 for a monument

00:29:09.000 that promotes xenophobia,

00:29:10.000 Islamophobia,

00:29:11.000 and anti-Turkish sentiment.

00:29:16.000 Just a little historical reminder.

00:29:19.000 Vienna would not exist today

00:29:22.000 without xenophobia,

00:29:23.000 Islamophobia,

00:29:24.000 and anti-Turkish sentiment.

00:29:26.000 There would be no Vienna.

00:29:27.000 There would be no Austria. 0.95

00:29:29.000 It would be called,

00:29:30.000 you know,

00:29:31.000 Ibn al-Vienna,

00:29:33.000 I don't,

00:29:34.000 al-Muhammad al-Jihad.

00:29:36.000 That would,

00:29:37.000 that would be the name

00:29:39.000 It would be new Baghdad today. 0.84

00:29:41.000 If,

00:29:42.000 if not for xenophobia,

00:29:44.000 maybe it would be new Istanbul,

00:29:46.000 actually more,

00:29:47.000 more specifically.

00:29:48.000 If not for xenophobia,

00:29:49.000 Islamophobia,

00:29:50.000 and anti-Turkish sentiment.

00:29:53.000 The takeaway here

00:29:54.000 is not just that

00:29:55.000 an ethnic Turk

00:29:56.000 and a socialist

00:29:58.000 is opposed to

00:30:00.000 the national hero

00:30:02.000 of the country

00:30:03.000 in which she lives

00:30:04.000 lives and of which

00:30:05.000 she is supposedly

00:30:06.000 a member of the

00:30:07.000 political community.

00:30:08.000 Obviously,

00:30:09.000 she's not a member

00:30:10.000 of the political community.

00:30:11.000 Even though she's in parliament,

00:30:12.000 she views herself

00:30:13.000 as outside

00:30:14.000 of the political community

00:30:15.000 of Vienna.

00:30:16.000 She views herself

00:30:17.000 as someone

00:30:18.000 who is conducting

00:30:19.000 a hostile takeover

00:30:20.000 of the political community

00:30:22.000 of Vienna and of Austria.

00:30:23.000 But,

00:30:24.000 what this is a reminder of

00:30:25.000 is that

00:30:26.000 mass migration

00:30:28.000 changes

00:30:29.000 everything.

00:30:30.000 I'm not even

00:30:32.000 saying

00:30:33.000 it makes everything

00:30:34.000 worse.

00:30:35.000 It kind of does,

00:30:36.000 but that's not even

00:30:37.000 the point.

00:30:38.000 I'm not even arguing

00:30:40.000 right now

00:30:41.000 that mass migration

00:30:42.000 makes everything

00:30:43.000 worse.

00:30:44.000 I'm just pointing out

00:30:45.000 that it changes

00:30:46.000 everything.

00:30:47.000 It's not just that

00:30:48.000 there's a little more crime.

00:30:49.000 It's not just that

00:30:50.000 it taxes the welfare services

00:30:52.000 a little bit more.

00:30:53.000 It's not just that

00:30:54.000 you have to press

00:30:55.000 two for English.

00:30:57.000 It's that it changes

00:30:58.000 everything.

00:30:59.000 It means you can't even

00:31:00.000 put up a statue

00:31:01.000 of your national hero

00:31:02.000 anymore.

00:31:03.000 Because cultures

00:31:05.000 have heroes.

00:31:07.000 And when a new

00:31:08.000 culture comes in,

00:31:09.000 you get different heroes.

00:31:12.000 Sometimes the new culture

00:31:14.000 is not merely indifferent

00:31:16.000 to the heroes

00:31:17.000 of the old culture,

00:31:18.000 which is bad enough.

00:31:19.000 You probably don't get

00:31:20.000 the statues even in that

00:31:21.000 case.

00:31:22.000 But sometimes the new

00:31:23.000 culture is hostile

00:31:25.000 to the old culture,

00:31:27.000 to those heroes.

00:31:28.000 In which case,

00:31:29.000 you get these statements

00:31:30.000 like this.

00:31:31.000 Oh, the national hero

00:31:32.000 of Austria?

00:31:33.000 No, no, no.

00:31:34.000 For him here in Austria.

00:31:35.000 Who says who?

00:31:36.000 The Austrians? 0.78

00:31:37.000 Not the traditional

00:31:40.000 Austrians.

00:31:41.000 No, no, no.

00:31:42.000 The new Austrians, 0.98

00:31:43.000 also known as the Turks.

00:31:44.000 Look at Germany. 0.71

00:31:45.000 Right next door.

00:31:46.000 Look at Germany. 0.71

00:31:47.000 Visigrad 24 is pointing

00:31:49.000 this out.

00:31:50.000 In Germany right now,

00:31:51.000 on billboards promoting

00:31:53.000 McDonald's,

00:31:54.000 they've removed images

00:31:56.000 of the food.

00:31:59.000 You know why?

00:32:00.000 Because it's Ramadan. 0.97

00:32:01.000 And in Ramadan,

00:32:02.000 the Muslims don't eat 1.00

00:32:03.000 during the day.

00:32:04.000 So, you had an advertisement

00:32:06.000 of a thing of french fries.

00:32:08.000 And now you just get

00:32:09.000 the carton.

00:32:10.000 Empty.

00:32:11.000 No french fries.

00:32:12.000 Because they want to be

00:32:13.000 sensitive to the Muslims.

00:32:14.000 There are two ways to read

00:32:15.000 the advertisement.

00:32:16.000 One is,

00:32:17.000 out of sensitivity,

00:32:18.000 when you're fasting,

00:32:19.000 it's tough to look at food.

00:32:23.000 It's tough to smell food,

00:32:24.000 be around food.

00:32:25.000 It makes it a little harder.

00:32:26.000 Now, the point of fasting

00:32:27.000 is penance.

00:32:28.000 Maybe that's a good thing.

00:32:29.000 But one way to view it is

00:32:31.000 that the Germans are just 1.00

00:32:32.000 being kind of sensitive

00:32:33.000 to the Muslims.

00:32:34.000 You know, they don't want

00:32:35.000 to aggravate them

00:32:36.000 while they're already fasting.

00:32:37.000 You know, they're already

00:32:38.000 probably a little on edge.

00:32:39.000 And these are not

00:32:41.000 the most calm

00:32:44.000 and patient

00:32:46.000 and balanced people

00:32:47.000 in the world.

00:32:48.000 You know, they're kind of,

00:32:49.000 when they get a little on edge,

00:32:50.000 things explode.

00:32:51.000 So they say, okay,

00:32:52.000 maybe we want to be

00:32:53.000 a little sensitive.

00:32:54.000 That's one way to read it.

00:32:56.000 The other way to read

00:32:57.000 the billboards

00:32:58.000 is as a kind of a joke.

00:32:59.000 It's just like a little in-joke.

00:33:01.000 You know, they still

00:33:02.000 want to promote McDonald's,

00:33:03.000 but it's a little in-joke

00:33:04.000 because, you know,

00:33:05.000 everyone within that culture

00:33:06.000 knows we don't eat a lot

00:33:07.000 during Ramadan.

00:33:08.000 And so, oh, that's kind of funny.

00:33:09.000 They're promoting McDonald's,

00:33:10.000 but they know that we don't eat.

00:33:11.000 Oh, you know, tee hee hee.

00:33:13.000 All right, we get each other.

00:33:14.000 Either way,

00:33:15.000 what this represents

00:33:17.000 is that mass migration

00:33:20.000 changes everything.

00:33:21.000 You can't have Christmas markets

00:33:25.000 in Germany anymore.

00:33:26.000 In Europe, generally,

00:33:28.000 they used to have

00:33:29.000 these beautiful Christmas markets.

00:33:30.000 They don't have them anymore

00:33:31.000 because Muslims keep driving 1.00

00:33:33.000 their cars into them.

00:33:34.000 So they just don't have them anymore.

00:33:36.000 Sometimes they don't have

00:33:38.000 New Year's celebrations anymore

00:33:39.000 because Muslims keep driving 1.00

00:33:40.000 their cars into them

00:33:41.000 and blowing stuff up.

00:33:42.000 They didn't have Oktoberfest

00:33:44.000 in Germany this year.

00:33:46.000 Is there anything more German

00:33:48.000 than Oktoberfest?

00:33:49.000 It's words that are too long

00:33:53.000 to express ideas

00:33:55.000 that are too complicated

00:33:56.000 and Oktoberfest.

00:33:57.000 Those are the two most German things 0.99

00:33:59.000 in the entire world.

00:34:01.000 And they don't have it anymore.

00:34:04.000 And when you object to this,

00:34:06.000 the libs tell you

00:34:08.000 that you're being petty.

00:34:10.000 We've seen this in America

00:34:11.000 with a hostile takeover

00:34:13.000 of a liberal secular atheist culture.

00:34:15.000 We see it with

00:34:16.000 the Starbucks cups at Christmas.

00:34:17.000 This was a major culture war issue

00:34:19.000 for years and years and years.

00:34:20.000 It's abated a little bit

00:34:21.000 in recent years.

00:34:22.000 But previously,

00:34:23.000 you had Christmas cups

00:34:24.000 at Starbucks.

00:34:25.000 And then as atheism

00:34:26.000 and secularism advanced,

00:34:27.000 they took away

00:34:28.000 some of the Christmassy stuff.

00:34:30.000 And it became a culture war issue.

00:34:32.000 The war on Christmas.

00:34:34.000 And the libs said,

00:34:36.000 oh, you're being so silly.

00:34:37.000 You're being so petty.

00:34:38.000 Who cares?

00:34:39.000 It's just a coffee cup.

00:34:40.000 Who cares?

00:34:41.000 Oh, it's just a sign

00:34:42.000 in the public square.

00:34:43.000 It was really, really,

00:34:44.000 the war on Christmas

00:34:45.000 schools.

00:34:46.000 It was in advertising.

00:34:47.000 They changed it.

00:34:48.000 It went from a Merry Christmas

00:34:49.000 everywhere

00:34:51.000 to 15 or 20 years ago

00:34:53.000 to happy holidays.

00:34:55.000 What's the holidays?

00:34:56.000 There's no,

00:34:57.000 there's the only one major holiday

00:34:58.000 at that time.

00:34:59.000 And the major holiday is Christmas.

00:35:00.000 Kwanzaa is totally fake.

00:35:01.000 Hanukkah is a minor holiday

00:35:02.000 for a religious minority.

00:35:04.000 But even,

00:35:05.000 even if it were a major holiday

00:35:06.000 for the religious minority,

00:35:07.000 you could maybe make sense of it,

00:35:09.000 but it's a minor holiday.

00:35:10.000 What else is there?

00:35:14.000 The new year comes later.

00:35:15.000 What is, what is there?

00:35:16.000 It's just Christmas,

00:35:17.000 but it's the holiday

00:35:18.000 that cannot be named.

00:35:19.000 It's just, it's,

00:35:20.000 when you object to that,

00:35:22.000 you are totally justified.

00:35:24.000 Because what,

00:35:25.000 what is culture?

00:35:26.000 Culture is all the little things.

00:35:28.000 That's what culture is.

00:35:29.000 Culture is all the little things.

00:35:31.000 All the little things

00:35:32.000 that we just move around in

00:35:33.000 that we're not even aware of

00:35:34.000 most of the time.

00:35:35.000 It's the statues in our town square.

00:35:37.000 It's the turns of phrase

00:35:39.000 that we use when we say

00:35:40.000 goodbye to the cashier

00:35:41.000 or when we see someone

00:35:42.000 on the street

00:35:43.000 that we don't even think about.

00:35:44.000 That's what culture is.

00:35:47.000 Formal political actions,

00:35:49.000 you know, legislation,

00:35:50.000 all the laws,

00:35:51.000 that those are,

00:35:52.000 those are more conscious.

00:35:54.000 We're, we're more aware of those,

00:35:55.000 but culture is all the little things.

00:35:57.000 It's the French fries

00:35:58.000 and the McDonald's advertisement.

00:36:00.000 And mass migration

00:36:03.000 radically changes the culture

00:36:05.000 immediately in ways

00:36:06.000 that are often imperceptible,

00:36:08.000 which makes it frankly,

00:36:09.000 even more of a threat

00:36:11.000 than overt political action.

00:36:13.000 It's more insidious.

00:36:14.000 It's just like changing

00:36:16.000 the air out in the room

00:36:17.000 from nice fresh air

00:36:18.000 to a miasma of fetid gas

00:36:22.000 that soon enough,

00:36:25.000 either, you know,

00:36:26.000 kind of stinks up the whole place,

00:36:28.000 radically changes your culture

00:36:29.000 to the point that you can't

00:36:30.000 even recognize it,

00:36:31.000 or just totally kills your culture.

00:36:33.000 You swap out the fresh air

00:36:34.000 for carbon monoxide

00:36:35.000 or something like that.

00:36:36.000 Not good.

00:36:37.000 Have I made my point forcefully enough?

00:36:39.000 Okay.

00:36:40.000 Speaking of foreign affairs,

00:36:41.000 an American Air Force fighter pilot

00:36:44.000 seems to have committed treason

00:36:45.000 with the Chinese.

00:36:46.000 We'll get to that momentarily

00:36:47.000 and whether or not

00:36:48.000 we can execute him.

00:36:49.000 First though,

00:36:50.000 the Daily Wire is celebrating

00:36:51.000 Black History Month,

00:36:52.000 just probably not the way

00:36:54.000 that they were hoping.

00:36:56.000 Streaming right now on Daily Wire Plus,

00:36:57.000 the brand new three-part

00:36:58.000 original series,

00:36:59.000 Black Lives Matter,

00:37:00.000 hosted by Professor Wilford Riley.

00:37:01.000 The breakout voice the world met

00:37:03.000 in one of the biggest documentaries

00:37:05.000 of the decade,

00:37:06.000 Am I Racist?

00:37:07.000 Watch as he dismantles

00:37:08.000 the mythology of systemic racism

00:37:10.000 as it is sold today,

00:37:12.000 separating fact from fiction,

00:37:13.000 data from grievance,

00:37:14.000 and history from hustle.

00:37:15.000 If we're going to have the conversation,

00:37:17.000 we're having the whole conversation.

00:37:18.000 Black History Month wanted recognition.

00:37:20.000 We're giving it to them.

00:37:21.000 Watch Black Lives Matter now,

00:37:23.000 only on Daily Wire Plus.

00:37:25.000 My favorite comment yesterday

00:37:26.000 is from MetalCrow1879,

00:37:27.000 who says,

00:37:28.000 President Trump should have said,

00:37:29.000 remain seated if you agree

00:37:30.000 I'm the best president ever.

00:37:31.000 That's,

00:37:32.000 look, he basically did that.

00:37:34.000 He dared them

00:37:36.000 with the bluntest kind of statements

00:37:39.000 you could, I think.

00:37:41.000 Stand up if you agree

00:37:43.000 with the statement that America

00:37:44.000 is chiefly for Americans

00:37:45.000 and not illegals.

00:37:47.000 And they couldn't even,

00:37:48.000 but yes, it would have been,

00:37:49.000 okay, now,

00:37:51.000 now sit down

00:37:52.000 if you really like me.

00:37:53.000 Fight me.

00:37:55.000 What are we,

00:37:56.000 what are we,

00:37:57.000 am I supposed to,

00:37:58.000 what do we do?

00:37:59.000 They told me not to stand up.

00:38:00.000 Okay.

00:38:02.000 Gerald Eddie Brown Jr.,

00:38:05.000 65 year old,

00:38:06.000 reportedly elite fighter pilot,

00:38:09.000 former fighter pilot,

00:38:10.000 you're usually not an active

00:38:11.000 fighter pilot at 65.

00:38:13.000 He has just been charged

00:38:14.000 with providing and conspiring

00:38:15.000 to provide defense services

00:38:17.000 to Chinese military pilots

00:38:19.000 without authorization

00:38:20.000 in violation of the arms

00:38:22.000 export control act.

00:38:24.000 So according to the assistant

00:38:25.000 attorney general

00:38:26.000 for national security,

00:38:27.000 the U.S. Air Force trained

00:38:29.000 Major Brown to be an elite

00:38:30.000 fighter pilot and trust him

00:38:31.000 with the defense of our nation.

00:38:32.000 He now stands charged

00:38:33.000 with training Chinese military

00:38:35.000 pilots.

00:38:36.000 When U.S. persons,

00:38:37.000 whether military or civilian

00:38:38.000 provide training to a foreign

00:38:39.000 military,

00:38:40.000 that activity is illegal

00:38:41.000 unless they have a license

00:38:43.000 from the State Department.

00:38:44.000 The national security division

00:38:46.000 will use all tools

00:38:47.000 at its disposal

00:38:48.000 to protect our military

00:38:49.000 advantages and hold to

00:38:50.000 account those

00:38:51.000 who would violate the AECA.

00:38:53.000 So this guy betrayed his country.

00:38:55.000 In fact, the DOJ,

00:38:57.000 the FBI,

00:38:58.000 is using that exact word.

00:39:00.000 Roman Rozovsky,

00:39:01.000 assistant director

00:39:02.000 of FBI's

00:39:03.000 counterintelligence

00:39:04.000 and espionage division,

00:39:05.000 says,

00:39:06.000 Gerald Brown,

00:39:07.000 former F-35 Lightning II

00:39:08.000 instructor pilot

00:39:09.000 with decades of experience

00:39:10.000 flying U.S. military aircraft,

00:39:11.000 allegedly betrayed his country

00:39:13.000 by training Chinese pilots

00:39:16.000 to fight against those

00:39:17.000 he swore to protect.

00:39:18.000 Okay.

00:39:19.000 So, that word,

00:39:21.000 betrayal,

00:39:22.000 traitor,

00:39:23.000 that's the key word here.

00:39:25.000 This guy committed

00:39:27.000 as serious a crime

00:39:29.000 against the country

00:39:31.000 as one can commit.

00:39:33.000 He not only passed on military secrets,

00:39:37.000 that's bad enough as espionage,

00:39:39.000 that too is a betrayal,

00:39:41.000 but he actively,

00:39:43.000 personally,

00:39:44.000 trained the chief enemy of America 0.89

00:39:48.000 in military tactics,

00:39:50.000 using American military secrets.

00:39:54.000 This is Benedict Arnold level stuff.

00:39:57.000 This is as serious a betrayal

00:39:59.000 of the country as there is.

00:40:02.000 The minimum penalty for treason

00:40:04.000 is five years in prison

00:40:06.000 and $10,000,

00:40:07.000 according to U.S. code.

00:40:10.000 The maximum penalty is death.

00:40:13.000 We used to execute traitors.

00:40:15.000 We used to hang traitors.

00:40:17.000 Willy nilly,

00:40:18.000 didn't think a moment about it.

00:40:21.000 Even relatively recently

00:40:22.000 into the 20th century,

00:40:23.000 we fried Julius and Ethel Rosenberg,

00:40:25.000 didn't we?

00:40:26.000 For being spies for the Soviet Union,

00:40:28.000 betraying their country.

00:40:30.000 We've done it.

00:40:31.000 We've done it somewhat recently.

00:40:32.000 20th century was not all that long ago,

00:40:34.000 I guess.

00:40:36.000 My question is,

00:40:38.000 do we still have the guts

00:40:41.000 to execute traitors?

00:40:43.000 What is required to execute traitors?

00:40:45.000 Two things.

00:40:46.000 One,

00:40:47.000 a defense of capital punishment,

00:40:49.000 which a lot of people

00:40:50.000 don't have anymore.

00:40:51.000 A lot of people will not

00:40:52.000 defend capital punishment.

00:40:55.000 For moral reasons,

00:40:56.000 they'll say that it's a violation

00:40:58.000 of human dignity.

00:40:59.000 They'll say that,

00:41:00.000 I don't know,

00:41:01.000 there's all sorts of arguments

00:41:02.000 that I think are a little dubious

00:41:03.000 in light of the consistent teaching

00:41:05.000 of the church

00:41:07.000 for at least 1970 years or so.

00:41:11.000 Roughly 1950 years,

00:41:13.000 somewhere around there.

00:41:14.000 And in principle,

00:41:16.000 still the teaching of the church.

00:41:18.000 But also the political history

00:41:20.000 of our civilization.

00:41:21.000 We've found capital punishment

00:41:22.000 to be justified

00:41:24.000 because whosoever sheds

00:41:25.000 the blood of man by man

00:41:26.000 shall his blood be shed,

00:41:27.000 for man is made

00:41:28.000 in the image and likeness of God.

00:41:29.000 In other words,

00:41:30.000 human dignity is actually

00:41:32.000 the justification

00:41:33.000 for capital punishment.

00:41:34.000 It's not that capital punishment

00:41:36.000 is unjust because of human dignity.

00:41:38.000 The very argument

00:41:39.000 for capital punishment

00:41:41.000 in the Bible,

00:41:42.000 in the book of Genesis,

00:41:43.000 is from human dignity.

00:41:46.000 But,

00:41:47.000 some people are confused

00:41:48.000 about this now,

00:41:49.000 or they don't think

00:41:50.000 that retribution

00:41:52.000 is the cheap purpose

00:41:53.000 of punishment.

00:41:54.000 They think it's rehabilitation

00:41:55.000 or this or whatever,

00:41:56.000 whatever.

00:41:57.000 So that's one side of it.

00:41:58.000 The second thing required

00:41:59.000 to execute traitors

00:42:00.000 is patriotism.

00:42:03.000 You have to think

00:42:05.000 that betraying your country

00:42:07.000 is a serious crime.

00:42:08.000 And in order to do that,

00:42:10.000 you have to love your country.

00:42:12.000 You have to think

00:42:13.000 your country is worth protecting.

00:42:15.000 You have to hold your country

00:42:16.000 in really high regard.

00:42:18.000 And so I know that people

00:42:20.000 are confused about

00:42:21.000 the death penalty today.

00:42:22.000 I know they have conflicting

00:42:23.000 views about that.

00:42:24.000 But,

00:42:25.000 I don't think we're patriotic

00:42:26.000 enough to execute traitors.

00:42:29.000 I don't think,

00:42:30.000 we're told not to love our country.

00:42:32.000 The major political party

00:42:33.000 in this country

00:42:35.000 only holds the American flag

00:42:36.000 under duress.

00:42:37.000 They find the flag icky

00:42:38.000 and at many of their

00:42:39.000 major rallies,

00:42:40.000 they hold the flags

00:42:41.000 of foreign nations

00:42:42.000 or of weird sex stuff.

00:42:43.000 You know,

00:42:44.000 they'll hold the,

00:42:45.000 they'll fly the rainbow flag

00:42:46.000 all day.

00:42:47.000 They'll fly the BLM flag. 0.74

00:42:48.000 They'll fly the Mexican flag,

00:42:49.000 but they don't want to fly.

00:42:50.000 They'll fly the Palestinian flag. 0.73

00:42:51.000 They'll fly any,

00:42:52.000 the Colombian flag,

00:42:53.000 they'll fly any number of flags.

00:42:54.000 The American flag,

00:42:55.000 they don't like.

00:42:56.000 You don't really see that much.

00:42:57.000 So they don't like that.

00:42:58.000 They openly defend

00:42:59.000 burning the American flag,

00:43:00.000 the symbol of the country.

00:43:01.000 Even many people on the right

00:43:02.000 defend that.

00:43:03.000 We're told that this country

00:43:04.000 is illegal.

00:43:05.000 It's stolen land.

00:43:06.000 It was,

00:43:07.000 it's committed all the atrocities

00:43:08.000 in the world.

00:43:09.000 It's,

00:43:10.000 it has the original sin

00:43:11.000 of slavery.

00:43:12.000 It's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:43:14.000 I don't think we can execute

00:43:15.000 traitors anymore

00:43:16.000 in this country.

00:43:17.000 I don't think we possess

00:43:18.000 the requisite moral vision

00:43:21.000 or patriotism to do it.

00:43:23.000 So this guy,

00:43:24.000 I bet this guy probably get off

00:43:25.000 five years in prison.

00:43:26.000 $10,000 fine.

00:43:27.000 That's my,

00:43:28.000 that's my prediction.

00:43:29.000 Okay.

00:43:30.000 Speaking of attacking

00:43:31.000 one's own country here,

00:43:33.000 here is an embodiment.

00:43:34.000 Lest you think that I'm being

00:43:35.000 hyperbolic here.

00:43:36.000 Here's Whoopi Goldberg on the view

00:43:38.000 saying that living in America

00:43:40.000 is just like living in Iran.

00:43:43.000 Let's just remember too,

00:43:44.000 the Iranians literally throw gay 1.00

00:43:45.000 people off of buildings.

00:43:46.000 They don't adhere to basic

00:43:47.000 human rights.

00:43:48.000 Listen, here's the thing.

00:43:49.000 Let's not,

00:43:50.000 let's not do that.

00:43:51.000 Let's not do that.

00:43:52.000 Because if we start with that,

00:43:54.000 we have,

00:43:55.000 we have been known in this country

00:43:57.000 to tie gay folks to the car. 0.94

00:43:59.000 We have been known.

00:44:00.000 I'm sorry,

00:44:01.000 but where the Iranian regime

00:44:02.000 is two days.

00:44:03.000 Listen, I'm sorry.

00:44:04.000 They,

00:44:05.000 they used to just keep hanging

00:44:06.000 black people.

00:44:07.000 So let's,

00:44:08.000 It is not even the same.

00:44:09.000 I couldn't step through

00:44:10.000 Oh no.

00:44:11.000 That's the same.

00:44:12.000 It is the same.

00:44:13.000 No, it's not.

00:44:14.000 The year 2025

00:44:15.000 in the United States

00:44:16.000 is nothing like if I step foot

00:44:17.000 wearing this outfit in Tehran

00:44:18.000 right now.

00:44:19.000 Listen, I'm sorry.

00:44:20.000 Listen, listen.

00:44:21.000 I can't have my hair showing.

00:44:22.000 I can't wear a skirt.

00:44:23.000 I can't have my arms out.

00:44:24.000 Understood.

00:44:25.000 So I'm telling you,

00:44:26.000 as a,

00:44:27.000 I literally said it was up

00:44:28.000 to the Iranian people.

00:44:29.000 Yes.

00:44:30.000 It is up to them.

00:44:31.000 And that's why I am saying

00:44:33.000 that it is the same.

00:44:35.000 Murdering someone

00:44:37.000 for their difference

00:44:39.000 is not good.

00:44:40.000 Whoever does.

00:44:42.000 It's not good.

00:44:44.000 So that's why I said

00:44:45.000 you,

00:44:46.000 you weren't saying

00:44:47.000 what you,

00:44:48.000 what I heard

00:44:49.000 was not what you meant.

00:44:50.000 Okay.

00:44:51.000 Yeah.

00:44:52.000 I think it's very different

00:44:53.000 to live in the United States

00:44:54.000 in 2025

00:44:55.000 than it is to live in Iran.

00:44:56.000 Not if you're black. 1.00

00:44:57.000 Not for everybody.

00:44:58.000 Not if you're black. 1.00

00:44:59.000 Guys, don't go to Tehran.

00:45:00.000 Do not anyone at this table

00:45:01.000 should go to Tehran.

00:45:02.000 Let me tell you about

00:45:03.000 being in this country.

00:45:04.000 Okay.

00:45:05.000 I think, all right.

00:45:06.000 I think we got enough of Whoopi.

00:45:07.000 Look, it's the greatest country

00:45:08.000 in the world, but it's just

00:45:09.000 like living in Iran 1.00

00:45:10.000 if you're black.

00:45:11.000 Okay.

00:45:12.000 So it's funny to think

00:45:15.000 that Alyssa Farah,

00:45:16.000 who's a big lib,

00:45:17.000 but she's the fake conservative 1.00

00:45:18.000 on The View.

00:45:19.000 She's the one there.

00:45:20.000 She's the voice of reason.

00:45:21.000 She goes, yeah,

00:45:22.000 I just don't think

00:45:23.000 that living in America today

00:45:24.000 is quite like living in Iran 1.00

00:45:26.000 where you don't have

00:45:27.000 any political rights

00:45:28.000 and, you know,

00:45:29.000 women can be beaten 1.00

00:45:30.000 if they show any skin

00:45:31.000 and they're under

00:45:33.000 this kind of deranged leadership

00:45:35.000 of this caliph terrorist.

00:45:37.000 And he says, no, no,

00:45:39.000 well, it's, yeah.

00:45:41.000 But if you're black,

00:45:42.000 America's just like that. 0.99

00:45:44.000 And she can just say this

00:45:45.000 and there's no consequence

00:45:46.000 to that.

00:45:47.000 So anyway, I think it's all great.

00:45:48.000 My real takeaway from this

00:45:49.000 is not to invade against Whoopi

00:45:50.000 and say how terrible this is.

00:45:51.000 I think this is great.

00:45:52.000 I want this to be played

00:45:54.000 in campaign ads.

00:45:55.000 You know what else

00:45:56.000 I want to be played

00:45:57.000 in campaign ads?

00:45:58.000 To just to show

00:45:59.000 the derangement of the Dems

00:46:00.000 to show that Trump really

00:46:01.000 is the party of normal.

00:46:03.000 The real thing I want to play

00:46:04.000 in campaign ads?

00:46:05.000 Also, Whoopi Goldberg

00:46:06.000 attacking Donald Trump

00:46:07.000 for the insanely rude act

00:46:10.000 of honoring the U.S. men's

00:46:11.000 Olympic hockey team.

00:46:13.000 I'm laying there

00:46:14.000 and I thought,

00:46:15.000 what's coming in my ear

00:46:16.000 and what I'm looking at

00:46:17.000 in front of me

00:46:18.000 are such different worlds

00:46:19.000 of what we have coming forward.

00:46:20.000 And it was just,

00:46:21.000 it was hard to stomach.

00:46:22.000 What's worse than him

00:46:23.000 are the sycophants

00:46:25.000 and the acolytes

00:46:26.000 who are praising him

00:46:27.000 and going along with him.

00:46:28.000 Yeah.

00:46:29.000 I mean, I'm dismissing him

00:46:31.000 because he's not well.

00:46:33.000 The man is not well.

00:46:34.000 His narcissistic disorder

00:46:36.000 is off the charts.

00:46:37.000 Well, you know what?

00:46:38.000 He's also insanely rude

00:46:40.000 because a lot of people

00:46:42.000 won gold for the U.S.

00:46:44.000 A lot of people won gold.

00:46:46.000 I'm sorry.

00:46:47.000 You know,

00:46:48.000 the women's hockey team

00:46:49.000 and the women's

00:46:50.000 and the young skater

00:46:52.000 who comes from immigrant family.

00:46:54.000 I mean,

00:46:55.000 there are a lot of people.

00:46:56.000 He's clearly a fan

00:46:57.000 of heated rivalry, Whoopi.

00:46:58.000 That's why he loves

00:46:59.000 the hockey players.

00:47:00.000 I can agree

00:47:01.000 with Donald Trump.

00:47:02.000 And I'm going to leave

00:47:03.000 that right there.

00:47:04.000 We'll talk more

00:47:05.000 about this when we come back.

00:47:06.000 Oh, all right.

00:47:07.000 We got to leave

00:47:08.000 because they're sending me

00:47:09.000 to commercial

00:47:10.000 as I'm attacking

00:47:11.000 the men's hockey team.

00:47:12.000 So what is her argument?

00:47:13.000 Her argument is,

00:47:14.000 Trump should either honor

00:47:17.000 all of the gold medal winners

00:47:18.000 exactly equally,

00:47:20.000 or he should have picked

00:47:21.000 some of the other gold medal.

00:47:22.000 Maybe you should have picked

00:47:23.000 the gold medal winners

00:47:24.000 who hate America,

00:47:25.000 who just come out

00:47:26.000 at the Olympics.

00:47:27.000 Even just the Olympians generally.

00:47:29.000 Forget about whether

00:47:30.000 or not they win a gold medal.

00:47:31.000 They come out,

00:47:32.000 and they say,

00:47:33.000 yeah, America's awful.

00:47:34.000 I hate America right now.

00:47:35.000 Trump is terrible.

00:47:36.000 We need to defend

00:47:37.000 the queer community

00:47:38.000 from the Trump Gestapo.

00:47:39.000 And we're supposed

00:47:41.000 to pick them or what?

00:47:42.000 Does Whoopi Goldberg

00:47:43.000 have a problem

00:47:44.000 with that movie Miracle?

00:47:45.000 You know the miracle

00:47:46.000 on ice hockey team?

00:47:47.000 You know the one

00:47:48.000 in the 80s

00:47:49.000 that actually this

00:47:50.000 gold medal winning team

00:47:51.000 kind of recreates,

00:47:54.000 reiterates?

00:47:55.000 Is that bad?

00:47:56.000 You know,

00:47:57.000 Hollywood is insanely rude

00:47:58.000 for making a movie

00:47:59.000 about that 1980 hockey victory

00:48:02.000 when other people

00:48:03.000 won gold medals that year.

00:48:04.000 Is that it?

00:48:05.000 No.

00:48:06.000 What Whoopi's upset about

00:48:08.000 is that this is a team

00:48:09.000 of guys who not only won

00:48:11.000 the gold medal

00:48:12.000 at the Olympics,

00:48:13.000 but who like America

00:48:14.000 and who are respectful

00:48:16.000 of our political institutions

00:48:17.000 and who are happy

00:48:19.000 to meet the president

00:48:20.000 of the United States

00:48:21.000 and to be honored

00:48:22.000 at the State of the Union.

00:48:23.000 That's what they hate.

00:48:24.000 What Whoopi hates

00:48:25.000 is how normal

00:48:27.000 the hockey team is

00:48:28.000 and how normal

00:48:31.000 President Trump seems.

00:48:33.000 How they're normal.

00:48:34.000 This is one of the big knocks

00:48:35.000 from the left

00:48:36.000 on various people

00:48:37.000 over the last decade

00:48:38.000 is they're normalizing

00:48:39.000 Donald Trump.

00:48:40.000 Stop normalizing Trump.

00:48:41.000 He's the president.

00:48:42.000 He won at least two elections.

00:48:43.000 I think he's normal now,

00:48:44.000 but they stop normalizing.

00:48:46.000 That's what she's really upset about.

00:48:47.000 And I love it.

00:48:48.000 They send her to break. 0.99

00:48:49.000 All right, enough of this Whoopi.

00:48:50.000 Get out of here.

00:48:51.000 Let's go back.

00:48:52.000 Let's go to commercial.

00:48:53.000 Why?

00:48:54.000 I think a lot of people,

00:48:55.000 maybe they just hit the clock,

00:48:56.000 but I think a lot of smarter

00:48:57.000 Democrats realize

00:48:59.000 it's a bad look.

00:49:00.000 It's a bad look to be

00:49:02.000 supporting political violence publicly.

00:49:04.000 It's a bad look to,

00:49:07.000 you know, sit down

00:49:09.000 when honoring Irina Zarutska,

00:49:11.000 Irina Zarutska's mother.

00:49:13.000 It's a bad look to say

00:49:15.000 that America is not primarily

00:49:16.000 for Americans.

00:49:17.000 And it's a bad look

00:49:18.000 to be the party that's

00:49:19.000 against the gold medal winning

00:49:21.000 U.S. hockey team.

00:49:22.000 You know, it's a,

00:49:23.000 you don't want to be,

00:49:24.000 it's like, it's like,

00:49:25.000 let, you know,

00:49:26.000 Democrats are going to become 0.69

00:49:27.000 the party of torturing

00:49:28.000 little puppies or something

00:49:29.000 by the end of,

00:49:30.000 they're just picking the wrong

00:49:31.000 side of so many issues,

00:49:32.000 just even from the perspective

00:49:33.000 of optics.

00:49:34.000 And I love that.

00:49:35.000 And I love that.

00:49:36.000 I took that personally

00:49:38.000 and I'm very happy

00:49:39.000 and I encourage much more

00:49:40.000 of it from the Dems.

00:50:00.000 What was it like, Merlin,

00:50:02.000 to be alone with God?

00:50:04.000 Is that who you think I was alone with?

00:50:15.000 Merlin, I knew your father.

00:50:17.000 I am yet convinced

00:50:18.000 that he was not of this world.

00:50:23.000 All men know of the great Taliesin.

00:50:25.000 You are my father.

00:50:26.000 You are my father.

00:50:27.000 That the gods should war for my soul.

00:50:30.000 Princess Garrus.

00:50:31.000 Saviour of our people.

00:50:36.000 I know what the Bull God offered you.

00:50:38.000 I was offered the same.

00:50:40.000 And?

00:50:42.000 There is a new pirate work in the world.

00:50:44.000 I've seen it.

00:50:46.000 A god who sacrifices what he loves for us.

00:50:48.000 We are each given only one life, singer.

00:50:51.000 No.

00:50:53.000 We're given another.

00:50:57.000 I learnt of Yazoo the Christ. 1.00

00:50:59.000 And I have become his follower.

00:51:00.000 He's waiting on a miracle.

00:51:02.000 And I think you can give him one.

00:51:04.000 Trust in Yazoo.

00:51:05.000 He is the only hope for men like us.

00:51:08.000 Vader Britain never rests in the hands of the great light.

00:51:11.000 Great light.

00:51:12.000 Great darkness.

00:51:14.000 Such things mattered to me then.

00:51:17.000 What matters to you now, mistress of lies?

00:51:20.000 You.

00:51:22.000 Nephew.

00:51:25.000 The sword of the High King.

00:51:29.000 How many lives must be lost before you accept the power

00:51:33.000 you were born to wield?

00:51:34.000 So clinging to the promises of a god who has abandoned you.

00:51:40.000 I cannot take up that sword again.

00:51:43.000 You know what you must do.

00:51:46.000 Great light, forgive me.

00:51:55.000 The time has come.

00:51:57.000 To be reborn.

00:51:58.000 To be reborn.
