00:00:00.940 I feel like I'm getting robbed when I bet the Stanley Cup on a sportsbook.

00:01:53.740 evidence showed that the bloodthirsty Anthony killed Metcalfe in cold blood with provocation
00:01:59.520 and premeditation. But the fact that we're all breathing a sigh of relief, that justice actually
00:02:05.980 was served in this case, highlights a deep problem. We're all just used to murders and
00:02:12.920 other violent criminals getting off the hook, especially if the criminals are black and the 0.99
00:02:17.160 victims are white. We will get into the details of the verdict as well as the responses of the
00:02:22.280 murderers, many fans and defenders outside the courtroom. Then the U.S. bombs Iran again after
00:02:28.720 Iran shoots down an Apache helicopter and strange new facts emerge and Spencer Pratt's surprising,
00:02:34.880 some might say implausible, last minute election loss to socialist Nidhi Raman in L.A. I'm Michael

00:03:35.580 You probably heard about those weight loss injections everyone's been talking about
00:03:38.280 for good reason. The results can be pretty incredible. They work by helping regulate
00:03:42.420 blood sugar and keeping your appetite in check. Plus, with summer swimsuit season right around
00:03:46.700 the corner, everyone wants to show off. But here's the thing. Not everyone wants to deal
00:03:50.760 with weekly injections, especially when you start hearing about some of the side effects
00:03:54.380 that can come with them. That's where Lean comes in. It's a weight loss supplement developed by
00:03:58.000 doctors, and people are seeing some really impressive results. The ingredients in Lean
00:04:01.840 are backed by research showing they can help lower blood sugar, turn stored fat into energy,
00:04:06.060 and reduce those constant cravings and hunger pangs that make dieting so hard.
00:04:09.800 One important thing to know, Lean is not just designed for someone who just wants to drop a
00:04:13.600 couple pounds. The doctors at Brickhouse Nutrition specifically formulated it for people who've been
00:04:17.440 struggling to lose 10 pounds or more and are ready for something that actually works. Multiple
00:04:22.060 producers and employees at The Daily Wire have tried lean, and they've already been so impressed
00:04:26.060 with how effective lean has been in such a short period of time. This summer, look your best. Let's

00:04:39.200 Knowles, K-N-A-W-L-E-S, at takelean.com. Carmelo Anthony, 19 years old. He was charged with first
00:04:45.920 degree murder in April of last year over the death of 17-year-old Austin Metcalfe. This was
00:04:53.760 down in Texas. They were at a high school track meet, and Austin Metcalfe goes into his team's
00:05:00.140 tent, and there's this guy, Carmelo Anthony, who's not on the team. He's in there. He's sitting in
00:05:05.420 Metcalfe's chair. He's not supposed to be in this tent to begin with, and so Metcalfe and some of
00:05:09.860 the guys say, hey, get out of the chair, get out of the tent. He won't do it. He keeps provoking him.
00:05:13.380 He says, you make me do it.
00:05:14.460 You're going to make me do it.
00:05:15.560 Make me get out of this chair.
00:05:16.920 And so Metcalf gives him a little shove, and Carmelo Anthony pulls a knife out of his bag,
00:05:21.940 stabs Metcalf in the heart, kills him, and runs away and is happily arrested.
00:05:29.120 Horrible situation, but it's clear as day what was going on.
00:05:32.460 So the judge in this case, Judge John Roach Jr., allowed the jury to consider two charges.
00:05:39.040 He was charged with first-degree murder, premeditated murder.
00:05:41.420 But he said, look, if you guys can't unanimously agree on the murder charge, you can also consider
00:05:46.560 the lesser charge of manslaughter. Murder carries a sentence of five years to life. Crazy. Could
00:05:52.400 you imagine five years for murder? Manslaughter is punishable by two years, two years in prison,
00:05:57.820 nothing, up to 20 years. So the jury happily concluded the reality of this, which is that
00:06:05.340 Carmelo Anthony murdered Austin Metcalfe. He was provoking Austin Metcalfe. This was
00:06:10.820 premeditated murder. And implausibly, outside of the classroom, Carmelo Anthony has all these fans
00:06:18.920 and supporters who are so upset. Here's one woman who goes viral for her reaction to the
00:06:24.060 supposedly unjust verdict. What do you want us to do? What do you want us to do at this point?
00:06:31.020 What? I'm lost for it. I don't know what to do. I got five boys. I don't know what. I ain't got
00:06:36.820 nothing to tell them no more. You can't walk away no more. I got five boys. I don't know what to
00:06:43.840 tell them. I don't know what to tell them to stop them from getting arrested and thrown in jail,
00:06:47.980 potentially for life. I don't know what to tell them. Well, one thing I would recommend you tell
00:06:52.580 them is don't stab people in the heart over nothing. That would be one thing you could do.
00:06:57.740 I would say, one thing you could tell your five boys is don't go to other people's places 1.00
00:07:05.420 and then sit in their seats and then provoke them and then stab them in the heart and murder them. 1.00
00:07:12.060 That would be one thing you could do. 1.00
00:07:13.920 Because if Carmelo Anthony had not done that, he would not be in prison right now.
00:07:18.820 She says, you can't walk away no more.
00:07:20.560 He didn't walk away.
00:07:21.540 In fact, the crucial fact of this case is he wouldn't walk away.
00:07:24.440 he went to some other guy's seat sat in the other guy's seat wouldn't move the guy asked him to move
00:07:31.680 he kind of push it taps him a little bit and then anthony stabs him in the heart
00:07:35.420 it wasn't just this crazy lady there were a whole host of these people protesting outside
00:07:40.860 the courtroom holding baseball bats crazy stuff chanting carmelo anthony
00:07:47.060 what do we want justice you got justice a guy murders another guy in cold blood and then
00:08:00.800 then then really in full justice the murderer would be executed promptly this is a little less
00:08:07.120 than justice in that the the murderer will go to jail hopefully for life but maybe for a short
00:08:12.420 period of time. It's a Carmelo. So you say, what is this about? And it's obvious, and you're not
00:08:18.820 really allowed to say what it's about, but what it's about is racial solidarity. It's not about
00:08:22.200 the facts of the case. It's not about the criminal justice system. It's not about how we should
00:08:28.460 treat murderers. It's about racial solidarity. And this is backed up by social science. For years
00:08:34.560 now, we've seen Pew Research has a good study on this. Black people in the United States have by 0.63
00:08:39.900 far the highest degree of racial solidarity and the highest degree of racial consciousness.
00:08:44.360 For black people, over 70%, I think it's 72% of black people in the US say that being black
00:08:51.020 is important or very important to their identity. That number drops a lot when you look at Asians
00:08:58.140 and Hispanics, but for both of them, that's north of 50% still. Then you get to white people and
00:09:03.660 it's 15%. White people have essentially no racial consciousness and no sense of racial solidarity. 0.97
00:09:09.060 So if the roles were reversed, ridiculous even to mention it, it's cliche and trite and absurd, 0.99
00:09:14.440 but if the roles were reversed, there would be no mob of white people outside the classroom 0.90
00:09:19.500 chanting justice for Austin, if it had gone the other way. There would be none of that.
00:09:25.860 It doesn't exist because there's racial solidarity, but really almost only for black
00:09:30.660 people to some degree for Asians and Hispanics and none whatsoever for white people.
00:09:34.660 So it's a big relief that the verdict came in and this guy who, with many eyewitnesses, with no ambiguity whatsoever, in total cold blood, murdered this 17-year-old kid.
00:09:46.140 But the fact that we're relieved by the verdict shows us a problem.
00:09:52.700 And the problem is there is a two-tiered system of justice.
00:09:56.860 That's the problem.
00:09:58.100 Just by our anxiety, our anticipation of the verdict, we recognize that there's a two-tiered system of justice.
00:10:04.660 that if a white cop tries to arrest a black career criminal who's actively resisting arrest 0.87
00:10:14.300 and something goes wrong and the black criminal dies, let's say I'm just off the top of my head, 0.99
00:10:18.480 let's say the black criminal has taken four times the lethal dose of fentanyl and then resists 0.99
00:10:22.320 arrest for 11 minutes and then dies in the process of finally being subdued, just off the top of my 0.99
00:10:27.260 head. In that case, we know that that white guy is going to go to jail for life, even though he
00:10:34.120 really didn't do anything wrong. We know that if a white guy subdues a black criminal who's 0.98
00:10:39.120 threatening people on subway cars, his life is going to be ruined, at least for many, many months, 0.99
00:10:44.040 if not send him to jail forever. And we know that the justice system in the United States and in the
00:10:51.280 UK has endeavored to be more lenient toward black criminals, a two-tiered system of justice. We just 1.00
00:10:58.940 saw this with the Henry Novak case. The cops were told from the College of Policing, from the
00:11:05.100 Organization of Police Chiefs in the UK and the Police Race Action Plan. They were told,
00:11:10.940 go softer on non-white criminals, mostly migrants from places like Pakistan, and be harsher on 0.99
00:11:18.140 white people. You should reflexively believe the non-white criminals over even white victims. 0.99
00:11:24.180 That's exactly what played out in the Henry Novak case. And we see the same sort of policing 0.94
00:11:28.920 here in the United States. It's a two-tiered system. Speaking of the UK, the deputy prime
00:11:34.360 minister of the UK, David Lammy, just debated our vice president, J.D. Vance. As J.D. Vance came out
00:11:40.100 and he pointed out how unjust all of the circumstances around the Henry Novak murder
00:11:45.080 were, where a child of Punjabi migrants, just in cold blood, also a stabbing, stabs this kid,
00:11:53.060 Henry Novak to death, the cops show up, and they totally ignore Henry Novak, and they make fun of
00:11:58.140 him as he's bleeding to death, and they're joking around with his murderer. So David Lammy says,
00:12:02.260 no, no, no, Vice President Vance, you have this totally wrong. Obviously, this Deputy Prime
00:12:09.120 Minister, David Lammy, he comes out here, he says, look, you don't understand, Vice President Vance,
00:12:15.180 this is not, you just have the facts wrong here, this has nothing to do with mass migration.
00:12:21.000 You don't understand, Vice President Vance.
00:12:23.220 And I say, what are you talking about?
00:12:24.920 It has everything to do with mass migration.
00:12:27.880 The issue here is that you have a huge number of migrants from places like Punjab, a lot of Pakistani migrants.
00:12:34.980 And you've imported some of the racial pathologies from the George Floyd case.
00:12:38.620 But furthermore, even before that, you were going soft on the Pakistani rape grooming gangs that were operating with impunity for decades. 0.50
00:12:46.460 operating for decades, harming white English girls, and you intentionally looked the other 0.96
00:12:53.520 way because you didn't want to be called racist. You had the College of Policing say you need to
00:12:57.360 focus on white fragility and microaggressions. You had the UK race action plan that came out
00:13:03.720 and said, hey, we can't treat everybody equally. We don't want racial equality. We don't want
00:13:07.700 colorblindness. So it has absolutely everything to do with mass migration. It has everything to
00:13:15.580 do with these demographic shifts and a two-tiered system of justice. Now, before we get into
00:13:20.440 anything else, I always want to come back to the domestic policies. First, I want to tell you about
00:13:23.740 Good Ranchers. Go to goodranchers.com. One thing I've noticed as I've gotten older is that some of
00:13:28.240 the best memories do not happen during the big events. They happen around a table, a family
00:13:32.100 dinner, a backyard barbecue, everyone hanging around after the meal is over because no one's
00:13:36.560 in a hurry to leave. Fathers are often at the center of those moments. It's one of the many
00:13:41.780 reasons I love Good Ranchers. Good Ranchers delivers 100% American meat sourced from American
00:13:45.780 farms and ranches directly to your door. You know how much I love Good Ranchers? One, because I love
00:13:52.220 the people. They're just great people who started this company. Two, it's from America. It supports
00:13:56.920 American farms and ranchers. They don't inject it with a bunch of weird stuff. Three, even when you
00:14:01.440 talk about their nice chicken nuggets, they don't use seed oils. It's really, really, really good.
00:14:04.580 But the other reason is just it's the best meat you're going to get. It's so good. This is the
00:14:08.820 gift for your father. Father's Day is coming up. This is a gift dad will use. It is the best meat
00:14:14.520 you're going to get from the best people at the best price. For a limited time, when you buy any
00:14:18.700 Father's Day gift box from Good Ranchers, they will include free Wagyu burgers. That's right.

00:15:05.540 drop you're not you're not you don't get to watch it until you go to the candle club and buy the
00:15:27.680 my suit and my tie candle okay the producers informed me they've finally found this clip
00:15:32.620 take it away. I have spoken to J.D. Vance. I spoke to him yesterday and I told him he was wrong.
00:15:39.900 This has got nothing to do with mass migration. One, let's be clear that obviously since the
00:15:47.480 early 2000s and post-Brexit, migration has come down, but murder has come down too,
00:15:53.760 actually in our country. And two, the young man who perpetrated this crime was a Brit,
00:15:59.840 born and raised in this country nothing to do with mass migration what did you say to him i told him
00:16:05.180 he was wrong now we had an agreeable conversation but we disagree yeah okay the baby this guy was a
00:16:13.120 brit vikram digua was a brit okay yeah so first of all his his parents were immigrants so okay yeah
00:16:19.080 he's first generation born in the uk but even even if he had been born in the uk and his parents were
00:16:25.220 born in the uk and his grandparents were born in the uk which would be implausible but let's say
00:16:28.280 we're all true. The whole context around the murder was about mass migration. It was the 0.99
00:16:36.280 whole context. The police guidelines were there to ignore the victim and to joke around with the
00:16:42.860 killer because of mass migration. This is just that meme that so much of left-wing discourse
00:16:48.980 is the left pretending not to understand things, thus making discourse impossible.
00:16:54.820 we have to say that there's no racial component to the circumstances around
00:17:00.060 the austin metcalf murder there's always a racial component whenever whenever a white person can be
00:17:07.700 even slightly plausibly especially if you squint accused of any act of vague racial awareness
00:17:14.260 against a non-white person then it's all about race but whenever it goes in the other direction
00:17:18.740 including when the perpetrator makes overt racial comments as in the case of the murder of irena
00:17:23.720 Zarutska on the train in Charlotte, North Carolina. There we have to totally ignore it,
00:17:27.880 which is just downstream of the fact that some races in America have massive racial solidarity
00:17:33.720 and racial consciousness. Others do not. And we just conveniently choose when we're going to
00:17:39.700 apply racial criteria based on the prevailing liberal narrative. Totally absurd. Now to the
00:17:47.840 point that in the UK, you have this video of a Sudanese immigrant who claimed asylum,
00:17:54.200 who exploited a loophole to get into Northern Ireland, beheading a man on the street in
00:17:59.040 Belfast. That is not, you know, the Irish are tough people and they sometimes brawl a little 0.99
00:18:03.980 bit. Beheadings are kind of a foreign thing. The nearest country to the UK where you see 1.00
00:18:11.540 beheadings is like France in the revolution. Okay, this is a little unusual. We don't get
00:18:16.140 a lot of that in the UK. And we have to pretend this has nothing to do with immigration. Someone
00:18:21.480 pointed out that we've now reached the beheadings in the street stage of cultural enrichment. We
00:18:26.020 have to pretend, no, no, no, no, look away here, nothing to see here, nothing to see here. The
00:18:30.340 establishment media are basically not even covering this. It has nothing to do with mass
00:18:34.200 migration. People vote for the Brexit. They say, we just want less migration. We just have too much
00:18:39.500 migration. What happens? Migration goes up. Seems like what the people want, the government just
00:18:45.360 refuses to give them on the crucial matters. You're seeing this in L.A. right now. Nidia
00:18:49.400 Raman. Nidia Raman is the socialist candidate in L.A. Nobody likes her. Nobody voted for her. 0.99
00:18:55.040 The race really was between Karen Bass and Spencer Pratt. Karen Bass, who's a communist, 1.00
00:18:59.360 who's now like an actual card-carrying communist, who's now the incumbent mayor of L.A., and Spencer
00:19:04.680 Pratt, who's this reality TV star kind of Republican guy who was making a real insurgent
00:19:09.380 campaign. So if you looked at the prediction markets, it looked like the runoff election
00:19:14.040 was going to be Karen Bass versus Spencer Pratt. Nydia Raman just hurt her numbers tanked after 1.00
00:19:19.900 Spencer Pratt's excellent debate performance. So this is where I predicted. I said, look, 0.56
00:19:25.440 Spencer Pratt's not going to become the mayor of LA. Karen Bass is going to remain the mayor. But
00:19:29.420 I think that he got rid of Nydia Raman. I think he destroyed her campaign.
00:19:33.460 And this is one, I hate to say, I told you so. This is one where I was only half right.
00:19:38.260 And because I was half right in the sense that Nydia Raman now beat Spencer Pratt,
00:19:43.340 Pratt's out of the race. The runoff will be between Karen Bass and Nidhi Raman, 0.99
00:19:46.380 meaning that whoever wins, it's going to be a Democrat. But not to make excuses for my
00:19:51.040 half-right prediction, one thing I wasn't counting on was all those mail-in ballots.
00:19:57.080 And maybe I should have counted on that because Pratt was winning. On election day,
00:20:00.440 Pratt was winning. And then five days later, after they kept counting all those extra votes,
00:20:04.840 turned out that Pratt was out. And that in itself is not proof of cheating.
00:20:09.540 that in itself is not proof of fraud. But when you get down into the numbers,
00:20:13.940 you see something a little strange. Nitya Raman lost her own district.
00:20:19.700 She's a member of the city council. She lost her own district to both Bass and Pratt.
00:20:26.980 She came in third in her own district. Actually, frankly, I don't even know that she came in third.
00:20:34.580 no no it's even worse than that she came in like fifth it was it was bass pratt steyer 0.88
00:20:44.340 becerra you don't even see ramen on the list so they want us to believe that nydia ramen 1.00
00:20:51.560 could lose her own district but then win 40 percent of the rest of the vote in the city 1.00
00:21:00.620 by mail. That's what they want us to believe. Democrats, I need to do a video on this. 0.91
00:21:06.920 Democrats have been using absentees and mail-in ballots to steal elections since the middle of
00:21:12.040 the 19th century. This is the tried and true pattern by which Democrats steal elections.
00:21:16.860 In this case, though, it's just so brazen. Nobody supported Nitya Raman.
00:21:23.520 And yet, she pulls ahead. You want us to believe that her real constituency
00:21:28.060 was just absentees, was people who conveniently couldn't show up to vote
00:21:33.100 from everywhere else in the city but the place she actually represents?
00:21:39.400 You've got a bridge in Los Angeles to sell me. Do they even have bridges in Los Angeles? I don't
00:21:43.040 know. Do they have infrastructure there anymore? I'm not so sure. Now, speaking of Democrat ops,
00:21:48.720 even more bad news for the SPLC, the Southern Poverty Law Center, which markets itself as the
00:21:54.140 preeminent civil rights organization in the United States. Then we found out some great reporting on
00:22:01.040 this, most recently from the post-millennial. The SPLC was paying for white supremacy. They
00:22:08.340 were paying for neo-Nazis. They had leaders of neo-Nazi white supremacy organizations on SPLC
00:22:14.440 payroll. SPLC said, well, no, we just wanted moles in the organization. But that excuse doesn't hold 0.82
00:22:19.140 up when you're actually funding the leaders of the organizations. And now we're finding out
00:22:23.360 that SPLC money went to, this is according to the federal indictment, went to racist merchandise,
00:22:31.060 okay, living expenses for some of these people, recruitment of other neo-Nazis and white
00:22:36.380 supremacists. You can't let the supply run dry. Robes and hoods. The SPLC is paying for the hoods
00:22:43.960 for the Klan and for the material used in Ku Klux Klan cross burnings. They're paying for the
00:22:50.720 crosses. They might have been paying for the gasoline. So the head of the SPLC, this is kind
00:22:57.240 of the opposite of nominative determinism, nomenestomen. His name is Mr. Fair. Just delightful.
00:23:04.560 Mr. Fair, perpetrating one of the least fair political ops in modern American history.
00:23:11.060 He gets dragged before Capitol Hill. Some of our friends up there really rip him a new one. We'll
00:23:15.300 get to that momentarily. First, though, I want to tell you about Preborn. Go to preborn.com
00:23:19.520 slash Knowles, K-N-A-W-L-E-S. Fatherhood changes you. Whether it happened exactly when you planned
00:23:23.880 it or not, most dads remember that moment when the reality set in. Someone is depending on me
00:23:28.820 now. It's very exciting. It's also terrifying. I'm a father four times over now, and I tell you,
00:23:33.520 it's really great every single time. For a lot of people, though, they don't totally expect it.
00:23:38.260 Here's John's story, and I think it resonates with a lot of people. He said, me, a dad, didn't
00:23:42.340 even feel possible. I didn't know the first thing about being a good father, but then we found
00:23:45.760 pre-born. We talked to people who cared. We got a free ultrasound. John said that was the moment
00:23:49.500 everything changed. The moment he realized we can do this, I can do this, this Father's Day,
00:23:54.320 you can help create that moment for another family. For just $28, you can sponsor an ultrasound
00:23:57.880 through pre-born. To donate, dial pound 250 and say keyword baby. That's pound 250, keyword baby,
00:24:04.320 or go to preborn.com slash Knowles. Don't forget, when a mother and father see their child on the
00:24:08.980 ultrasound, it more than doubles the baby's chance at life. This is the best ROI you're going to get
00:24:13.620 on any charitable giving. I personally support this organization. I encourage you to give what
00:24:18.080 you can. Dial pound 250, say keyword baby, or go to preborn.com slash Knowles. First up,
00:24:24.980 our friend, rising Republican star in Congress, Brandon Gill, grilling the head of the SPLC.
00:24:32.020 Your organization said that restricting and banning abortion is a tool that the far right
00:24:39.980 uses to maintain white supremacy? Do you believe that pro-lifers are white supremacists?
00:24:48.120 I believe that reproductive liberty is...
00:24:52.420 No, do you believe that pro-lifers are white supremacists?
00:24:55.420 I will tell you what I believe if you're asking...
00:24:57.260 Is this yes or no?
00:24:58.360 I can't answer that question, yes or no.
00:25:00.100 I don't think that pro-lifers are white supremacists. Do you?
00:25:03.020 what I think is that reproductive liberty
00:25:07.880 is a right that every woman should enjoy. 0.99
00:25:10.580 How many babies in the United States 0.99
00:25:12.640 that are aborted are black? 0.98
00:25:17.140 About 40% of abortions nationwide are of black babies. 0.94
00:25:22.240 Blacks represent about 13% of the population. 0.98
00:25:24.720 Does that sound like something
00:25:26.560 a white supremacist would oppose?
00:25:28.420 what i would say again is that splc supports reproductive calling somebody a white supremacist
00:25:37.640 is a pretty serious charge isn't it i would i mean i would think you would be able to defend that
00:25:42.640 if your organization says that you clearly seem unable to uh mr gill i'm not sure why you would
00:25:49.780 think i'm able to do anything well you're unable to do it because you're not doing it that's why
00:25:54.660 we would conclude it. But it's not really that you're unable to, it's that you're unwilling to.
00:25:59.160 Brandon Gill, the guy gets better at this every day. He started out great at it already,
00:26:03.560 and he just gets better at it every day. Very simple, straight down the middle.
00:26:06.660 And notice the progression here. The SPLC has gone after all of us, okay? The SPLC on its hate
00:26:13.600 watch blog, on its hate watch lists, they've gone after all of us. Everyone slightly to the right of
00:26:18.600 Barack Obama has found themselves, if you're in public life at all, you've found yourself in the
00:26:22.580 crosshairs of the SPLC at one point. The SPLC really targeted Charlie Kirk because he was so
00:26:28.060 effective at organizing young people for real political action. So one of the many ridiculous 0.68
00:26:34.820 things the SPLC has done is accused pro-lifers of being white supremacists. So Brandon, no 0.95
00:26:39.620 histrionics, no thea, he's kind of like Josh Hawley in this way. Senator Hawley is very good
00:26:44.200 at this too. Just total serious face. Hey, you said on your website that pro-lifers are white
00:26:48.700 supremacists. Is that what you believe? And the guy knows it's ridiculous. The guy knows that
00:26:53.160 his organization is just a fraud. The SPLC is a fraud, top to bottom. The things it accuses of 0.95
00:27:00.520 injustice are not unjust. The enemies that it says that it's going to topple, it's actually
00:27:08.340 funding and subsidizing. It's just maligning all ordinary conservative Americans. He says,
00:27:13.440 do you think pro-lifers are white supremacists? And obviously, the SPLC guy cannot defend his
00:27:18.120 own organization here because it's ridiculous. So then Brandon, he lets him flub and flop around,
00:27:24.100 and then he moves on, and he says to the kill shot, he says, well, hold on. 1.00
00:27:29.020 By far, black people disproportionately kill their babies through abortion. 0.99
00:27:34.820 So pro-life activism, therefore, disproportionately saves black people, 0.99
00:27:40.300 and it prevents them from being killed. In New York City, the majority of black babies are 1.00
00:27:45.540 killed through abortion. This is why we say that the most dangerous place for a black person in 1.00
00:27:51.080 the United States is in his mother's womb in New York. And so Braining Hill points that out. He 1.00
00:27:55.440 says, not only is it absurd on its face to call a pro-life or a white supremacist, but it's 0.80
00:28:00.100 perfectly absurd. It's exactly the inverse of reality. SPLC guy has absolutely no answer.
00:28:06.640 Daryl Issa then goes after the point I just mentioned about Charlie Kirk grilling the SPLC.
00:28:15.540 Your organization has labeled Dr. King and Charlie Kirk and others.
00:28:21.720 Do you regret that? Will you recant it?
00:28:25.340 Or are you going to double down and say that these people, including the martyred Charlie Kirk,
00:28:31.980 in fact somehow deserve to be on your hate list for they're constantly talking about bringing people together,
00:28:38.600 talking about the teachings of the Bible and the like?
00:28:42.720 Congressman Issa, as I said in my statement
00:28:47.740 No, wait a second, no, no
00:28:49.620 I heard your statement
00:28:50.800 I only want an answer to your question
00:28:52.900 and 11 seconds left
00:28:54.260 Are you going to recant, yes or no
00:28:57.120 Will you take back any part of that
00:28:59.560 or is your hate list stand
00:29:01.020 as your position of your organization
00:29:03.760 as its head today?
00:29:04.940 The SPLC will continue to expose
00:29:08.080 hate and extremism
00:29:09.540 Okay, we'll take that as the list stands
00:29:11.560 There you go. And this is the key. And this isn't just about embarrassing the head of the SPLC,
00:29:17.360 which is fun to do. It's politically important to do. He's embarrassed himself enough, of course.
00:29:21.720 But this is about the political import of all of it. And it really does come back to Charlie.
00:29:27.080 The assassination of Charlie Kirk is the most egregious action of the mainstream left in my
00:29:31.320 lifetime. It's not the most egregious action of the left. They're always fringe wackos. After 9-11,
00:29:37.460 they said America deserved 9-11. But most of the mainstream left did not say that.
00:29:42.760 Basically, nobody on the mainstream left said that. Whereas after the assassination of Charlie
00:29:47.200 Kirk, in fact, as it was happening, you had mainstream left wingers minimizing it, dismissing
00:29:53.440 it, excusing it, even celebrating it. You had Matthew Dowd, the Democrat strategist on MSNBC,
00:29:58.180 the Democrat cable channel, saying, well, as Charlie's dying, he said, well, you know, I mean,
00:30:02.460 this is what happens when you spread hate. You know, he kind of had it coming. That was essentially
00:30:05.840 what the guy was saying. You had elected Democrats, you had Democrats in the media,
00:30:10.960 you had Democrat activists, and you had the lady who sits next to you at work all saying,
00:30:16.880 well, yeah, Charlie kind of had it coming. And so now to ask the head of the SPLC, okay,
00:30:20.700 do you regret calling Charlie Kirk, this guy who was totally gracious and charitable to his
00:30:25.940 opponents, who always just wanted to talk it out, who was as mainstream centrist as they come,
00:30:31.660 do you regret calling him a hater saying that he was one of the real targets of your hate watch
00:30:37.820 because he was spreading hate and division and injustice in america do you regret that charlie 0.94
00:30:43.200 freaking kirk do you regret that after he was murdered by one of your own by a lefty
00:30:49.360 and the head of the spLC refuses to do it which gives away the whole game 0.53
00:30:55.040 if any of us were murdered, if any of us, not just people in public life, but private citizens,
00:31:02.260 in as much as you have any effect on politics, in as much as you can be used to have any effect
00:31:08.340 on politics, the mainstream left would celebrate your murder. Indeed, they did. Brutal, brutal
00:31:15.940 grilling on Capitol Hill. For the SPLC, sure, but also just for the state of politics in the U.S.
00:31:20.600 Okay. Speaking of political violence, the ceasefire is still on, but we're shooting at each
00:31:28.620 other in Iran, but we're still on a ceasefire and we're almost at a peace deal, but we are
00:31:33.560 shooting each other. And this because two nights ago, the Iranians shot down a US Apache helicopter.
00:31:42.500 According to President Trump, quote, I've just been informed by our great military that last
00:31:46.100 night the Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache helicopters
00:31:49.280 while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz.
00:31:51.720 There were two pilots involved,
00:31:53.300 both are safe and uninjured.
00:31:54.940 Nevertheless, the United States must of necessity
00:31:57.280 respond to this attack.
00:31:59.940 Notice the language here.
00:32:01.600 He's not saying, yeah, 0.97
00:32:02.420 now we're gonna give him hell and glass Tehran 0.83
00:32:04.120 and this is gonna be awesome. 0.82
00:32:05.880 He's saying, look, we have to respond to this.
00:32:07.660 You shot down one of our helicopters.
00:32:08.960 I don't really want to respond
00:32:10.420 because I want a peace deal,
00:32:11.660 but you're making me respond.
00:32:12.880 So we're gonna have to respond to some degree
00:32:14.820 in a proportional way. 1.00
00:32:16.980 Now, the Iranians are half denying it.
00:32:20.560 I've seen some people on the social medias try to argue that this was a false flag attack. 1.00
00:32:26.140 And I see how they got there.
00:32:28.640 And they're blaming Israel as everybody blames Israel for everything.
00:32:31.620 But the way they got there was the United States wants a peace deal.
00:32:34.620 State of Israel does not want a peace deal.
00:32:36.380 And we're the co-belligerents in this war against Iran. 0.81
00:32:39.600 So I guess it's not that hard to make the logical leap that maybe Israel would benefit
00:32:44.780 if hostilities between the U.S. and Iran kicked up again, because then you don't get the peace
00:32:48.860 deal, then the war goes on, then maybe you topple the regime. The problem is, there's no evidence
00:32:53.400 for that. I see how you could get there in the abstract, but there's actually no evidence for
00:32:57.660 that, because Iran is half denying this, but half taking responsibility. According to Iranian state
00:33:03.480 media, citing military sources, they said there would be a decisive response to any attacks based
00:33:10.720 on the, quote, pretext of the crash of a US military helicopter. Okay. So here it seems
00:33:16.920 like they're really not taking any responsibility. But then Al Jazeera reports that Iran's foreign
00:33:20.680 minister said the helicopter was not deliberately targeted. And the word deliberately is doing a lot
00:33:27.640 here. So I guess it could have been the case that Iran seems to be saying, yeah, okay, we shot it 0.55
00:33:34.460 down. But we didn't do it deliberately. We weren't deliberately targeted. Maybe we were just shooting
00:33:39.340 in the general direction of a perceived threat, but we weren't deliberately taking the helicopter
00:33:44.140 down. Or perhaps more likely, this is an instance of division within the Iranian state. Because
00:33:49.580 don't forget, the Iranian government doesn't really control Iran right now. Certainly doesn't
00:33:52.980 control the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps controls the
00:33:56.180 Strait of Hormuz, and those are not the same thing. So what the Iran foreign minister might
00:33:59.660 be saying is, look, we didn't, this wasn't a government order to shoot it down, but the IRGC
00:34:04.600 went a little rogue, got a little big for their britches, and they shot it down. But we wish they
00:34:07.560 didn't shoot it down. We actually do kind of want a peace deal. Any of those possibilities are on
00:34:13.120 the table here. And ultimately, this doesn't really change the calculation. There are a lot
00:34:18.960 of war hawks here who don't want a peace deal, who want the Iranian regime to be toppled, 0.94
00:34:24.780 who want us to go all the way, who are saying, this is ridiculous. The Iranians clearly don't 0.84
00:34:28.300 want peace, and they're not to be trusted anyway. And so we just need to go in and glass Tehran. 1.00
00:34:33.400 and we need regime change. Would that it were so simple. I guess my calculation from before 0.75
00:34:37.740 the strikes began to the day they were happening when I was on air in this chair,
00:34:42.800 and every week since then, my view has remained the same, which is that it would be great if we 0.98
00:34:47.280 could replace the Iranian regime. Wouldn't that be great if we could do so easily? If we had a 0.66
00:34:51.360 reasonable probability of success in doing that, which is one of the criteria of just war. But I 0.90
00:34:55.620 don't think we do. I think the Iranian regime is more durable than that. I think they have 50 years 0.98
00:35:00.240 worth of contingencies. And I think the last few months have really proved that it's not so easy
00:35:05.260 to topple that regime. We've been hearing forever from the propagandists that, oh, 50,000 people are
00:35:09.640 going to march into the street and the Persians are going to overthrow their oppressive regime.
00:35:12.960 They've never done it. They just haven't done it. There has been resistance and the resistance has 0.96
00:35:16.640 been defeated by the regime. So I think it would be much, much harder to topple the Iranian regime.
00:35:20.380 I don't see evidence that the regime that we would replace it with would necessarily be better. 0.68
00:35:25.940 And I'm skeptical of the proportionality here, that the good to be achieved by regime change
00:35:31.200 would outweigh the costs that would be incurred. So I think the US position remains exactly the
00:35:38.720 same, which is that we want to stop Iran's nuclear weapon. We certainly want to weaken 1.00
00:35:42.300 the regime. That means degrading their ballistic missile program. But we're probably going to stop 0.88
00:35:47.720 short of regime change. Much the same calculation that we had in Iraq during the first Gulf War
00:35:53.620 under George H.W. Bush, a war that we should note was much more successful than the second
00:35:58.260 Gulf War under George W. Bush. That seems to be the calculation. So yes, we have to respond,
00:36:02.900 but I think the president's being very responsible here. He's saying, look,
00:36:05.100 of necessity, we have to respond to this, but our calculation does not change.
00:36:09.340 Okay. Turning to domestic issues. One of the most absurd displays I've seen from the left
00:36:16.140 makes the SPLC look like child's play. One of the top liberal journalists
00:36:21.600 was just fired by Barry Weiss and her hostile takeover of CBS.
00:36:26.400 One of the top liberal journalists is shocked, bewildered that anybody could think that he and
00:36:33.000 his colleagues were biased to the left. We'll get to that momentarily. First though,
00:36:36.880 very important note on Mayflower cigars, Father's Day is coming up. It's coming up faster than you
00:36:40.840 think. The shipping window to ensure your Mayflower cigars arrive in time for Father's Day

00:37:10.820 That was true just when we were selling online.

00:37:15.220 Now we're in 130 retail stores around the country,
00:37:18.400 which means production is even more strained,
00:37:20.220 Which means, look, this is an aged, artisanal, handcrafted product.
00:37:25.480 We can't just rush up production.

00:39:11.340 My favourite comment yesterday is from rosygirl2485.
00:39:14.000 says, Charlie Kirk spoke endlessly to college students about AI taking over their jobs and
00:39:18.900 that their degree would become meaningless. Yeah, he did. And this was an area where Charlie and I,
00:39:23.840 we disagreed a little bit, but ultimately I think we were kind of talking about the same thing.
00:39:28.500 Because Charlie is such an impressive guy. He didn't go to college. He just went straight
00:39:33.280 into political action. He was very, very successful at it. But Charlie knew that he
00:39:37.820 needed an education. And he and I spoke about this a number of times. And so he would find
00:39:42.300 elsewhere. He would read on his own. He ended up doing the Claremont Lincoln Fellowship,
00:39:47.680 which I recommended to him. I thought it'd be good for him. I thought it'd be good for the
00:39:51.820 Claremont Institute, where Charlie could fit in what most people would get in a four-year
00:39:55.180 college education. Frankly, more than most people would get in a four-year college education,
00:39:59.140 Charlie fit into about 10 days. So his knock on college was that the degrees were basically
00:40:05.380 worthless today. But I guess my caveat to that, and where I really separate from the opinion of
00:40:13.260 virtually everyone else on the right in the last 10 years, is it doesn't have to be that way.
00:40:19.140 That's true. If you just study some trade at university, if you just study some specific
00:40:24.080 kind of computer programming or engineering or whatever, that will become obsolete. For years
00:40:28.620 and years, you heard from the right, don't go to college. But if you do go to college,
00:40:31.460 study engineering, study business, study something really practical. And I said,
00:40:35.940 no, no, no, it's the opposite. If you go to college, you should study something totally
00:40:39.240 impractical. And the reason for that is a liberal education is meant to help you make sense of your
00:40:45.600 freedom, to tamp down your lower appetites, to cultivate your higher will, to be filled with
00:40:50.160 knowledge so that you can become free because freedom is willing predicated on knowledge.
00:40:55.060 That's a very concise definition of freedom. And so getting back to that story we were talking
00:40:59.020 about yesterday. These nerdy girls in Silicon Valley, AI's taking their jobs, so they decide 0.79
00:41:02.840 to become hookers. Because they say, well, I got one thing an AI doesn't have. I got a body,
00:41:06.960 so I'm going to sell that to the oligarchs in Silicon Valley. She's getting at something real,
00:41:11.340 but it's that she's going in the wrong direction. The advantage that we have over the AI is our
00:41:18.080 humanity. And so actually, my argument is, if you're going to go to college, in some ways,
00:41:22.640 it benefits you to study the humanities. It benefits you. One thing that a computer can't do,
00:41:29.020 One thing that an AI can't do that you can do, or potentially can do, is write poetry.
00:41:34.080 Because to write poetry, you have to come up with new metaphors.
00:41:36.480 And to come up with new metaphors, you have to have sensory experience.
00:41:39.280 And you have to have cultivated an intellect and a will to make sense of that.
00:41:43.060 That's something you can get at a university.
00:41:45.480 But if you just go through college like most people do today, yeah, AI is taking your job,
00:41:49.260 and you're going to be 200 grand in the can.
00:41:50.640 Okay.
00:41:52.740 Scott Pelley, who has been at CBS's 60 Minutes for the last 150 years or so,
00:41:59.020 he is one of the most intolerably left-wing condescending journalists out there.
00:42:04.480 He just got canned by Barry Weiss. He was very upset that Barry Weiss,
00:42:07.980 a center leftist, not even a conservative. By the standards of the establishment media,
00:42:12.600 she's Francisco Franco. But by ordinary political standards, she's not even on the right. She's not
00:42:17.540 even conservative. She is like a lesbian libertarian. But by today's standards, that 1.00
00:42:22.400 makes you Mussolini. Anyway, she comes into CBS and she says, hey guys, you got to get on the
00:42:27.000 program. You got to be a little bit more objective. You can't just be such blatant propagandists all
00:42:31.380 the time. And Scott Pelley puts up a big hissy fit about this in front of the whole staff,
00:42:35.760 reportedly. And so Barry Weiss says, all right, buddy, you're fired. You're out. Sorry, I'm not
00:42:40.200 tolerating this. We're going to restore some fairness to journalism. So then Scott Pelley
00:42:44.520 goes on the New York Times podcast to whine and to make an absurd claim. What was the feeling
00:42:52.200 about that particular opening salvo to the team uh-oh she i am told said something to the effect
00:43:02.920 of why do you think the country thinks you're biased but she didn't offer any kind of a metric
00:43:09.700 you know what's your metric why why do you think so uh do you have a poll is there uh market
00:43:16.300 research what are you talking about because we certainly didn't believe that we certainly
00:43:21.980 don't think that people think that we're biased to the left. Okay, first of all, he's doing that
00:43:26.060 thing that liberals do. It's so annoying, and it's a consequence of the empirical age and the
00:43:32.460 Enlightenment and the scientific revolution just taken to the most ridiculous extreme.
00:43:37.040 But what they'll do is you'll say something totally normal, something totally common sense.
00:43:41.380 You'll say, you know, the sky looks blue today. And what the left will say is, oh yeah, do you
00:43:47.340 have a source for that? Do you have a study? Do you have a peer-reviewed study that proves that?
00:43:52.720 Or to make it more realistic, you'll say, hey, I don't think a boy can actually become a girl.
00:43:58.020 Yeah, this was an argument for the last five years. I don't think a boy can actually become
00:44:01.440 a girl. They'll say, what's your source? Excuse me, because the consensus coalition of academic
00:44:09.300 scientist colleagues of consensus, they actually say that a boy can become a girl. Where's your
00:44:14.820 source. You say, I don't know, my source is my freaking eyes and my brain, bro. My source is 0.99
00:44:19.280 called common sense, which you apparently totally lack. Yeah, what's your source and proof of that?
00:44:25.360 Yeah, I think marriage is between a man and a woman. Do you have evidence?
00:44:30.460 Yeah, okay, here's some evidence. Everyone for all of human history everywhere has thought that.
00:44:34.680 Here's my evidence, the complementarity of the sexist. And it reveals a shallowness of thought
00:44:42.160 on the part of these people who are supposed to be the fancy guys who are really wise,
00:44:45.860 wearing neckties. A shallowness of thought that is deeply embarrassing. But then to go even further,
00:44:52.360 he's asking, well, do you have evidence to show that people think that we're biased?
00:44:56.300 And the answer is yes, actually. Just right off the top, all sides media bias rating rates CBS
00:45:03.160 News as leaning left. Ad Fontes Media rates CBS News Roundup as leaning left. A study in The
00:45:09.900 Economist found CBS Evening News using more Democrat-associated language over time
00:45:13.920 and employee donations at CBS skew heavily Democrat. Pew Research just last year found
00:45:19.040 that Democrats are much more likely to use and trust CBS News. 39% of Dems get news from it
00:45:23.960 regularly. Republicans show much higher distrust for major networks, including CBS. A quarter,
00:45:30.560 roughly a quarter of Republicans trust the big three networks, but much larger shares of Republicans
00:45:35.720 do not. So even on the stupid question that he's asking, can you prove that people think we're a 0.98
00:45:41.060 little biased? Yes, actually we can. That's what all the evidence shows and none of the evidence 0.99
00:45:46.480 shows your prejudice. So just if Pelley is this oblivious, he has no business being a prominent
00:45:53.760 journalist. You don't need to be a philosopher to be a journalist. You don't need to be a theologian.
00:45:57.760 You don't need to be a scientist. You don't need to be that competent in anything, but you do at
00:46:01.840 least need to know the basic facts of public life. That's like the basic thing you need to know.
00:46:06.760 And he doesn't know the basic facts of how the public perceives him, himself, his network.
00:46:13.760 Great stuff from Barry Weiss, an absolute joy to see Scott Pelley whining and crying on air. Okay,
00:46:19.260 so much more to get to, but we don't have time. You know why? Because the rest of the show continues
