00:06:44.480That guy should be prosecuted for his crimes, and ideally, he would be deported as well.
00:06:48.460You have to have consequences, or else they're not going to change their behavior.
00:06:51.920And this is becoming a big problem, which NPR realized in real time.
00:06:55.920So NPR. NPR came out and analyzing the shooting on Saturday night at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. They were looking through all the background of the shooter to see just how radical he had become. What they discovered is he's not all that radical.
00:07:16.760You know, you've seen some of the typical, well, it's the radical left and their rhetoric.
00:07:25.780But then you look at the social media profiles that have been attributed to the suspect, and they're really not that radical.
00:07:32.280I think what's most troubling about this one from the people I've interviewed is just that this person's admittedly thin online presence and writings paint a picture of a pretty normal guy with views that are quite common in America.
00:07:46.020You know, it doesn't appear that there was any so-called radicalization.
00:07:50.740And so I think, you know, through the court case, many will be looking for indications of what could have tipped him into an alleged, you know, plan for violence.
00:08:01.380That is NPR's Odette Youssef. Thanks so much.
00:08:04.520You can hear NPR realizing the significance of this in real time.
00:08:10.680What's that last line there? You know, it doesn't appear there was any so-called radicalization.
00:08:16.020uh this is npr's odette youssef thanks so much yeah there there wasn't radicalization because
00:08:22.920the guy who shot up the correspondence dinner who tried to kill trump in the whole administration
00:08:26.100he just sounds like a normal liberal now there there was a survey that came out last year
00:08:31.740this is from ncri found out that 56 percent of self-identified left-wing respondents
00:08:37.300justified murdering president trump that was april 2025 56 percent we know that very liberal
00:08:45.920people are seven to eight times as likely as very conservative people to say that political
00:08:49.840violence can be justified we know that elected officials and major media figures and intellectuals
00:08:57.680and ordinary old joe liberal all these people huge swaths of them justify political violence
00:09:03.220so yeah of course at a certain point when you examine the priors of the guys who actually go
00:09:10.480in there with the shotguns to try to blast off the head of the president you're going to find
00:09:13.840doubt he thinks exactly what you think well uh welcome to npr it turns out that the deranged0.97
00:09:20.600psycho killer who tried to murder the president is basically just like us isn't that right yes
00:09:25.620that is right odette yes that is right okay jared well back to you so what are we going to do about0.78
00:09:31.780it you can either you can either plead with the libs to be normal actually please don't kill us0.66
00:09:37.220or you have to prosecute them when they threaten to kill you which is what the comey prosecution's
00:09:41.080about. What's the alternative? Can someone offer me an alternative? Yeah, I don't like to live in
00:09:45.980a civilization. I don't like to live in a society where former FBI directors are prosecuted, where
00:09:51.480former presidents, for that matter, are prosecuted. I don't want to live in that society where
00:09:54.980presidents have to give preemptive pardons to their families. I want to live in that. I want
00:09:58.500to live in a high trust society where people just kind of get on in a normal way. But when half the0.52
00:10:03.140country is constantly justifying the murder of the other half, you don't get to live in that
00:10:08.320society. Then you got to bring down the heavy hand of the law because there will be order.0.99
00:10:11.960So we can either behave ourselves or we can impose order from the government, but there will be order.
00:10:19.440So speaking of this shooter, another quirky fact that's come out of this shooter and this,
00:10:25.360we have to thank Mr. Kaczynski, not Ted Kaczynski, Andrew Kaczynski. He said, we went through 4,700
00:10:33.660of cole allen's tweets posts and one of the strangest things we found was he shared a lot
00:10:38.500of posts claiming the butler assassination attempt against trump was staged he also repeatedly
00:10:43.960compared trump to hitler and urged people to buy firearms so i i love this actually i love that the
00:10:50.480guy who tried to blow trump's head off unsuccessfully happily thought that trump staged the last
00:10:56.880assassination attempt because i see this cognitive dissonance a lot have you noticed this people say
00:11:02.960that definitely didn't happen and i'm sorry it failed that's what a lot of people were saying
00:11:08.740about the assassination attempt on saturday is that you know this thing it definitely didn't
00:11:12.540happen this is totally fake and i'm really disappointed that it failed you see this with
00:11:16.280online nazis a lot they will simultaneously say the holocaust didn't happen and it's you know it's
00:11:21.960a pity it didn't go far enough not to admit not to make light but you can't simultaneously hold
00:11:27.400those views and be coherent you cannot simultaneously hold the view that trump is
00:11:32.860is faking his assassination attempts there's no way that anyone would actually assassinate trump
00:11:39.580and then you yourself are going to go assassinate trump so much of the discourse around the
00:11:45.000assassination is just a refusal on our part to acknowledge that much if not most of the mainstream
00:11:53.240left actually wants to kill us we don't want so we say no it was fake no it was trump no it was
00:12:00.680the deep state no it was israel no it was russia no it was iran no it was china no it was martians
00:12:07.060from planet zebulon seven any of those answers would be preferable would be more comforting0.92
00:12:12.740than acknowledging the fact that the mainstream left wants to shoot you and your kid
00:12:21.060wants to i'm not even i'm not even being hyperbolic here the attorney general of virginia0.97
00:12:28.400came out in text messages fantasizing about murdering republicans and the republicans kids
00:12:35.540just to hurt the republicans and then when those text messages came out the attorney general
00:12:42.160candidate the democrat didn't lose a single endorsement i confronted cory booker about this
00:12:46.720during my senate testimony on capitol hill booker didn't pull his endorsement and you know what
00:12:51.160happened the democrats in virginia elected that guy we don't want to acknowledge so much easier
00:12:56.800would it be to say oh no it's a hoax it's a deep state it's some foreign government it's
00:13:00.980but it's not it's not the call is coming from inside the house now speaking of you're just
00:13:06.420talking about you know the people who say the holocaust wasn't real and it didn't go far enough
00:13:09.780Speaking of Germanic violence, an Austrian man has pled guilty to plotting a terror attack on Taylor Swift.
00:13:17.900The facts of this, we have this from The Guardian here.
00:13:22.660Austrian man, you see that right there, pleads guilty to plotting terror attack.
00:13:26.700Defendant, 21, in court with second man over alleged scheme to kill music fans outside the Vienna Stadium.
00:13:33.060First line, a 21-year-old has pleaded guilty in an Austrian court over a jihadist plot to attack a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna nearly two years ago.
00:13:42.700This guy apparently pledged allegiance to ISIS, and he wanted to do a Muslim terrorism to Taylor Swift.
00:13:53.720I don't want to sound prejudicial or racist, but I'm a little skeptical that the man is Austrian.
00:14:01.540you know say what you will about the austrians there's one austrian in particular who was a0.50
00:14:07.400rather nasty fellow rather violent but he wasn't a jihadi i don't i don't think this guy this in
00:14:16.220this case i don't think he was really austrian what does it mean to be austrian maybe that can
00:14:23.360be mount walsh's next hit movie what is an austrian what are we're really now pretending
00:14:30.140that a Muslim who's just arrived from North Africa or the Middle East
00:14:35.800is as German as a beer hall, is as German as potato salad?0.81
00:15:54.520But this speech is none of those things, and this speech, we all need to take this to heart if we're to survive as a nation.
00:16:01.340First, though, speaking of Americans, I want to tell you about the great American ranchers who provide their wares and goods through Good Ranchers.
00:18:17.720Here in the shadows of monuments to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, honoring the British king, might seem an ironic beginning to our celebration of 250 years of American independence.
00:18:34.600But in fact, no tribute could be more appropriate.
00:18:38.700Long before Americans had a nation or a constitution, we first had a culture, a character and a creed.
00:18:46.760Before we ever proclaimed our independence, Americans carried within us the rarest of gifts, moral courage, and it came from a small but mighty kingdom from across the sea.
00:19:01.100For nearly two centuries before the revolution, this land was settled and forged by men and women who bore in their souls the blood and noble spirit of the British here on a wild and untamed continent.
00:19:16.760They set loose the ancient English love of liberty and the Great Britain's distinctive sense of glory, destiny, and pride.
00:19:24.960And that's what it is, glory, destiny, and pride.
00:19:29.300The American patriots who pledged their lives to independence in 1776 were the heirs to this majestic inheritance.
00:19:39.840Their veins ran with Anglo-Saxon courage.
00:19:43.120their hearts beat with an English faith
00:26:25.260And the way you know this is a very simple thought experiment.
00:26:28.020If you kept the geography of America and all the buildings and all the businesses, but you took all 320 million Americans that there are right now and you got rid of them, you just sent them to Greenland, which will soon be part of America.0.59
00:26:44.460You just moved them out of the country and you replaced them with different people, Bangladeshis or Tibetans or sub-Saharan Africans or Eskimos, I don't know, whatever.0.92
00:26:57.200You just replaced all the people. You still have the Declaration of Independence. You still have the Constitution. You still have the World Trade Center and the big arch in the Midwest. You just don't have any of the people. Would it still be America? The answer obviously is no. So America is a people. Who is that people?0.99
00:27:14.340well it's not the other people that's that's what it is president trump making this exclusive claim
00:27:22.020a corrective to really almost 50 years of liberal abstraction beautiful beautiful stuff now
00:27:28.620speaking of soaring oratory from republican politicians our pal brandon gill freshman in
00:27:36.140congress young republican up-and-comer looks kind of like clark kent he absolutely nailed it
00:27:42.820when he was grilling a pro-abortion advocate in Congress yesterday.
00:27:46.960We will get to that master class in pro-life advocacy first, though.
00:30:00.220Okay, what about this one? This one is called dilation and curatage. After dilation of the cervix, a sharp looped knife is inserted into the uterus. The baby's body is cut into pieces and extracted, often by suction. Do you prefer that method?
00:30:21.040we all like political philosophy we if you're listening to a show like this you like
00:30:27.660political philosophy and abstract ideas and deep conversations that's great you know i really like
00:30:32.820that too but in practical politics you need to take all those ideas all the studies all of the
00:30:39.480treatises and you need to boil them down to slogans you need to make them really applicable
00:30:44.140easily communicable you need to be able to put your opponents on the spot that's great too we
00:30:49.640like that too you know to quote president trump it's called trolling we do a little trolling
00:30:53.320well this is really effective trolling this is substantive trolling with purpose
00:30:57.900what's your favorite kind of abortion beautiful beautiful because who is this woman this woman
00:31:08.120is an abortion advocate. She's an abortion. She advocates for abortion. She'll try to use1.00
00:31:15.180euphemisms. So, oh no, it's for choice. Okay. The choice to do what? To have an abortion.
00:31:19.920It's for reproductive care. Okay. What kind? It isn't. It's the opposite of that. But okay.1.00
00:31:24.380What kind of reproductive care? Oh, for abortion. You're not talking about sonograms, right? You're0.92
00:31:30.140talking about abortions. Okay. So you're an abortion advocate. Okay. That's fine. I'm not
00:31:34.180an abortion advocate. I'm an abortion opponent. You're an abortion advocate. That's fine. You
00:31:38.520advocate for them. What's your favorite kind? What's your favorite kind of abortion? Is it the
00:31:44.980one where the vacuum sucks the baby out and grinds them up with the razors? Or is it the one where
00:31:50.020you crush the baby's skull? Or is it the one where you inject the baby with poison and burn
00:31:53.820his skin off? Which is your favorite kind? Which one do you most advocate for because you're an1.00
00:31:58.020advocate? Brilliant question. I've never heard it put this pithily, this persuasively.
00:32:06.480This is a slogan. This is similar to our pal, Matt Walsh, who I was with in Idaho last night.
00:32:11.940This was similar to when he stumbled on the question, what is a woman?
00:32:16.700The funny thing about the question, what is a woman is, it's actually kind of difficult to
00:32:20.460answer. You know, you can say it's an adult female human being or something, but that doesn't really
00:32:24.840answer it. I prefer to answer it by saying it's sugar, spice, and everything nice. Because you
00:32:29.960have to answer the immaterial aspects of what a woman is, as well as the physical aspects of what1.00
00:32:33.860a woman is and the relation between the body and the soul. It's actually kind of complex, you know?
00:32:37.040But it's a great question because the people who are arguing that men are women just look like1.00
00:32:43.540complete idiots when they're presented with it. They look foolish. They look ridiculous.1.00
00:32:49.280And this is a question like that. What's your favorite abortion?1.00
00:32:51.900no one can answer that because abortion is a horrible thing it's gruesome and the only way
00:32:58.460that you can convince anyone to tolerate it is by appealing to their base appetites say hey don't
00:33:05.640you want to have a lot of sex without any consequences and not have to take care of
00:33:09.840people and spend money and be responsible well then what you can do is exercise your reproductive
00:33:17.820choices and health you know but you have to be very euphemistic about it and appeal to very
00:33:22.400base desires but so when you just call it into stark relief you say what's your favorite kind
00:33:28.900i love it i want to hear i think you will hear this from every pro-life advocate very quickly0.81
00:33:36.500good on brandon this is really good stuff okay speaking of bloodthirsty women the hens of the
00:33:43.840you were absolutely thrilled that president trump and his cabinet felt fear felt the fear of death
00:33:53.360at the white house correspondents dinner but you know now now that so that room was full of some
00:34:00.180of the most important political leaders in the country right now right now they know they've
00:34:05.760lived it in their own flesh the fear that our school children go through now they know what
00:34:10.840it's like to have to jump under a table the way that school children jump under a desk and we are
00:34:17.900a country that is vulnerable to this we have now seen shootings in malls and churches in temples
00:34:25.140and walmart we saw it in baseball fields with the republicans and so you know it's i still don't
00:34:31.900understand how congress took no action after sandy hook after 20 children between the ages of six and
00:34:38.000seven were killed but maybe now that they have felt the fear themselves yeah they will do something
00:34:45.200so when you get past uh the cya rhetoric of the view here they're trying to dress up their
00:34:56.880grotesque claims i'm really glad that trump and his wife stephen miller and his wife and pete
00:35:04.320Hegseth and his wife, I'm really glad, and the vice president, I'm really glad they all were afraid for their lives because a Democrat wanted to kill them all.
00:35:12.220I'm really glad because, and they try to gussy it up, and they say, because they need to pass gun control.
00:35:20.800You know, they feel the fear that the other people fear because of gun.
00:35:24.440First of all, no one has ever had three assassination attempts on him.
00:35:27.740No one walking around today advocating for gun control has had people try to kill him three times and then had half the country call for his murder for 10 years.
00:35:56.360This is just a cheap way to try to get out of the heinous thing that they've said, which is that Republicans should worry for their lives when they walk out in public, simply for being Republicans.
00:36:05.000And what's notable about this is that what the women of the view are saying is exactly what the live streamer Destiny said, Stephen Bonnell.
00:36:14.960He said this right after Charlie Kirk was killed.
00:36:17.200I think it was after Charlie was killed or after President Trump was killed or maybe both.
00:36:20.920Or President Trump was almost killed or maybe both.
00:36:22.720he said good republicans need to fear for their lives when they go out in public
00:36:28.280that way maybe they'll shut up maybe that way they'll stop being republicans they need to
00:36:32.180fear for their lives so live streamer fringe leftist destiny said this crazy thing but actually
00:36:38.020it's the exact same thing that the women of the view on network television are saying during the
00:36:41.360daytime that's the takeaway okay hassan piker said america deserves 9-11 and that it's good
00:36:48.620that Republicans are fearing for their lives1.00
00:36:51.900and that we should kill Republican senators1.00
00:37:29.560The only thing we can do, brings us right back to the top of the show, is to start prosecuting these people, is to fire people from public airwaves, is to ostracize people from society, is to make people lose their jobs when they celebrate the killing of Charlie Kirk or the assassination attempts on Trump.
00:37:46.240and to prosecute the people who call for the assassination of the president.
00:38:14.680Now, speaking of some confused women, liberal women, Ilhan Omar seems to think that there have been not one, not two, but 11 world wars. We'll get to that momentarily. First, though, my favorite comment yesterday is from DRB41194, who says,
00:38:29.840if we played take a shot every time dems mentioned january 6th even nancy pelosi would have some
00:38:36.100catching up to do that's true i think you're right maybe hillary clinton probably would
00:38:39.760that is really damning for them because let's even if january 6th were what they said it was
00:38:47.340which it isn't i mean the only person killed in political violence on january 6th was a trump
00:38:51.120supporter killed by a cop the fbi was all over january 6th probably we're going to find out it
00:38:57.180was getting funding from the spLC but it just what some of the guys were getting uh private
00:39:02.480tours around the capital being led in by the but let's just say even if it was that is so damning
00:39:09.520that that's the only instance of political violence from the right that they can point to
00:39:13.120we're constantly told the right commits most political violence oh it's actual actually the
00:39:17.900studies the studies say that the right commits most political violence you say well yeah because
00:39:22.260your studies exclude all the left-wing political violence but if if that were true wouldn't the
00:39:28.120democrats have anything to go back to than an unruly protest five years ago i think they probably
00:39:35.680would okay ilhan omar is under fire because and this is actually an older clip but it's going
00:39:45.640viral right now ilhan omar referred to the global event of the late 1930s into the mid-1940s
00:39:55.320began in a random place called germany you know which we were just talking about germany at the
00:39:59.660top of the show anyway she referred to that as world war 11 the last time the alien enemies act
00:40:07.720was invoked it was used to detain and deport german japanese italian immigrants doing world
00:40:15.760war 11 now listen listen listen i i don't like ilhan omar any more than you do okay but she
00:40:25.080is being really unfairly castigated here because obviously ilhan omar when she's talking about
00:40:32.020global conflicts she's she's also counting the greco-persian wars obviously the punic wars
00:40:38.600the mongol conquests the nine years war you think she forgot about that one the war of the spanish
00:40:45.260succession of course the war of the austrian succession the seven years war which in america
00:40:50.900we call the french and indian war the american revolution another world war the napoleonic wars
00:40:55.660and then the events of the 19 teens which we call world war one and then the follow-up world war
00:41:03.220two obviously that's what she's talking about okay so can we please be fair to her what you think
00:41:10.180that a leading democrat legislator is just completely historically and maybe literally
00:41:15.740illiterate no it couldn't possibly be right right this country we in the congress we used to have
00:41:26.500men like john adams and thomas jefferson and now now we have ilhan omar i've i've said this before
00:41:36.540i've made this point before because when people talk about ilhan omar they they point out her
00:41:41.140terrible ideology and they say oh she giggles at the prospect of islamic terrorism you know she
00:41:46.420she giggles at al-qaeda she hates america yeah that's true but the ideology is only half the
00:41:54.980problem one of one of the reasons we're cooked right now one of the big reasons that america
00:41:59.840is cooked is not just the ideology yes the mainstream left wants to kill us all and they
00:42:04.400don't know what men and women are and they want to slaughter babies and yeah the ideology is0.99
00:42:08.320really really bad but they also are really dumb i don't mean we even we on the right are kind of1.00
00:42:15.100dumb too and i don't even mean dumb in terms of low iq i mean we don't read things anymore and0.98
00:42:20.420we don't consider ideas in a thoughtful way the commencement exercises at harvard 150 years ago0.99
00:42:26.120involved disputations in latin and greek on matters of the natural law and now it's some
00:42:32.260washed up stand-up comedian shows up and makes flatulence jokes and the the graduates giggle
00:42:37.940I mean, we just don't know stuff anymore.
00:43:02.940Now, speaking of violence among Democrats, there is a Michigan Democrat Senate candidate who is not helping the Dems rehabilitate their image after the latest one of them tried to kill the president.
00:43:19.140We need Democrats who have the courage to stand up to the power brokers in our own party, let alone Trump and his goons.
