00:00:30.000 A man sues immigrant women to force them to wax his genitals.

00:00:39.680 for refusing to wear a hijab.

00:00:42.060 And a prime Me Too smear merchant

00:00:44.160 accuses disgraced former Senator Al Franken's female accusers of lying.

00:00:49.680 We examine how the left came to embrace misogyny.

00:00:53.080 Then AOC endorses open borders

00:00:55.180 and President Trump unveils the greatest new piece of merchandise

00:00:58.920 of the 2020 campaign.

00:01:00.840 All that and more.

00:01:01.640 I'm Michael Knowles and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:10.640 So much to get to today.

00:01:12.600 I did my best to avoid talking about this giant man

00:01:17.920 who went into a ladies Brazilian wax salon 0.99

00:01:21.300 and asked them to wax his unpleasant areas

00:01:26.040 and then they didn't want to do it

00:01:28.440 because it's gross and he's a man 0.99

00:01:29.840 and now he's suing them out of their business.

00:01:32.180 I tried not to talk about this story

00:01:35.120 not because I don't have thoughts about it

00:01:37.600 not because it's not important for the culture

00:01:39.400 but really just because I don't want to think about it at all.

00:01:43.500 But alas, that's what we have to do here.

00:01:45.760 So we will get into what that means

00:01:47.460 and why the left has become so misogynistic.

00:01:49.460 But first, let's talk about finding freelance talent

00:01:52.760 for your business or project.

00:01:55.380 Finding the right freelancer can be time-consuming,

00:01:57.640 it can be frustrating,

00:01:58.580 it can be overwhelming to manage

00:01:59.800 and you don't know what you're going to get.

00:02:01.240 Where do you go to find the talent?

00:02:03.160 How can you be certain that they will deliver?

00:03:51.240 Wish that ad read could have gone on

00:03:53.020 for another 15 minutes

00:03:54.100 so I don't have to talk about this gross story.

00:03:56.140 But we do have to talk about it

00:03:57.940 because it actually matters

00:03:59.060 and it shows an aspect of the modern left

00:04:02.140 that is really perverse

00:04:04.220 and it's really anti-woman

00:04:05.820 and I'll use the word

00:04:07.680 it's misogynistic.

00:04:09.560 It exposes the left's disdain,

00:04:12.500 contempt,

00:04:13.200 hatred for women 1.00

00:04:14.420 at the very bottom,

00:04:15.720 at the extreme

00:04:16.400 of this ideology.

00:04:19.320 What's the story?

00:04:20.700 It's a simple enough story.

00:04:22.180 There are Brazilian immigrant women

00:04:23.760 living in Canada

00:04:25.140 who have a waxing salon.

00:04:27.140 You've heard of what a Brazilian wax is.

00:04:29.420 It's when you wax everything.

00:04:31.620 Everything down there,

00:04:32.900 you wax and okay,

00:04:34.020 this is for women. 1.00

00:04:36.800 So a trans woman 0.65

00:04:38.940 walks into the salon.

00:04:40.460 Now the thing you'll know

00:04:41.320 about trans women

00:04:42.180 is they aren't women. 1.00

00:04:43.220 They are men.

00:04:44.140 So this giant dude

00:04:45.460 walks into the salon

00:04:46.440 and he says,

00:04:47.300 I want a Brazilian wax.

00:04:49.500 And they refuse him.

00:04:50.360 They say,

00:04:50.580 we're not going to do that.

00:04:52.400 There are a couple reasons why.

00:04:55.460 On the one hand,

00:04:56.620 I mean,

00:04:56.800 I guess this is the most important reason.

00:04:58.300 We should not live in a society

00:05:03.280 where men can go in

00:05:05.200 to women's only places 0.92

00:05:06.880 and force them

00:05:08.580 to take the men's pants off 1.00

00:05:11.200 and handle their genitals. 1.00

00:05:14.060 That's a bad society.

00:05:15.920 If your society gets to the point

00:05:17.180 where you can go in,

00:05:18.760 forcibly expose yourself to women 1.00

00:05:20.500 and make them touch your genitals, 1.00

00:05:22.900 you've gone wrong.

00:05:24.060 You've lost the plot.

00:05:25.040 You've lost the narrative.

00:05:26.220 So that's the main reason.

00:05:29.100 There's also a technical reason

00:05:30.560 why they had to refuse him

00:05:31.560 because you can't give

00:05:34.700 a Brazilian wax to a man

00:05:36.620 because the area

00:05:38.380 that you're waxing

00:05:39.240 is different for men

00:05:40.240 and for women.

00:05:41.420 They have something

00:05:42.060 they refer to it,

00:05:42.820 I think,

00:05:43.080 as manzillion.

00:05:44.520 So that's the male version of this.

00:05:46.380 But it is a different procedure.

00:05:48.000 It involves different waxes.

00:05:49.560 It involves different techniques.

00:05:51.080 So even if the women 0.99

00:05:52.060 were amenable to this idea,

00:05:53.460 they might just technically

00:05:54.480 not be able to do it

00:05:55.760 because it's different,

00:05:56.880 because men and women

00:05:57.960 are different,

00:05:58.600 because there's no such thing

00:05:59.500 as trans women.

00:06:00.480 There are just men 0.99

00:06:01.140 who are confused

00:06:02.000 about their gender

00:06:02.760 or men who are wearing dresses

00:06:04.340 or men who very much

00:06:05.320 want to be the opposite sex 1.00

00:06:07.240 than they are.

00:06:08.600 I mean,

00:06:08.840 that's really what

00:06:09.580 we're arguing about here.

00:06:11.520 And this shows

00:06:13.160 the slippery slope

00:06:15.120 of so-called compassion.

00:06:16.660 I mean,

00:06:16.820 the left would have you believe

00:06:18.240 that it is compassionate

00:06:19.460 to indulge people's delusions.

00:06:21.740 There's something like

00:06:22.480 0.2% of the population

00:06:24.420 that's confused

00:06:25.000 about their biological sex.

00:06:27.180 What the left tells you is,

00:06:28.920 look,

00:06:29.280 that small percentage

00:06:30.000 of the population,

00:06:31.480 just indulge them.

00:06:33.180 Tell the man in a dress 0.98

00:06:34.140 that he's really a woman

00:06:35.000 and just go along with it.

00:06:38.920 What could go wrong?

00:06:39.920 He's not hurting anybody.

00:06:41.020 It's not hurting anybody.

00:06:42.860 It is hurting these women. 1.00

00:06:45.160 It's forcing these women 1.00

00:06:46.540 who own a wax salon

00:06:47.980 to be exposed to men

00:06:50.000 and to fondle their genitals. 1.00

00:06:53.800 That's harmful to women. 1.00

00:06:55.920 Yes, it's not harmful to the man.

00:06:57.980 The man probably likes it.

00:06:59.360 The man is voluntarily

00:07:00.460 going in there

00:07:01.020 trying to get it.

00:07:02.700 Not only is it harmful

00:07:03.940 to the women

00:07:04.360 and the experience of it,

00:07:05.920 it's also forcing them

00:07:07.020 out of business.

00:07:07.600 So this woman,

00:07:08.500 their business is over.

00:07:09.720 I mean,

00:07:09.940 it costs so much money

00:07:10.980 after the guy files

00:07:12.340 this civil complaint.

00:07:15.260 What is the guy's name?

00:07:16.240 The man formerly named

00:07:19.240 Jonathan Yaniv,

00:07:21.540 he now pretends to be a woman

00:07:23.280 and his name that he goes by

00:07:25.040 is Jessica Yaniv.

00:07:26.560 He is not just a guy

00:07:28.440 trying to get waxed.

00:07:29.680 He is a well-known activist.

00:07:32.240 And what he does,

00:07:33.300 what his whole shtick is about,

00:07:34.780 is he goes into

00:07:35.620 these female-only places 1.00

00:07:36.860 and then he wants them

00:07:38.660 to do intimate services on him.

00:07:41.380 And then when they refuse to do it,

00:07:44.260 he files complaints

00:07:45.100 with the government.

00:07:45.680 And then he tries to use

00:07:46.880 the strong arm of the state,

00:07:48.340 which has been totally perverted

00:07:49.900 to harm women,

00:07:52.500 into forcing these women 1.00

00:07:53.720 into dealing with his genitals. 0.98

00:07:56.660 That's what's going on.

00:07:59.280 I mean,

00:07:59.980 this is,

00:08:00.600 I've had people come up to me

00:08:01.800 and they'll say,

00:08:02.320 Michael,

00:08:03.360 why do you even talk about

00:08:05.160 the issue of gender ideology?

00:08:07.220 They'll say,

00:08:07.480 well,

00:08:07.600 I talk about it because

00:08:08.540 it's become a dominant

00:08:09.980 cultural and political issue

00:08:11.320 and presidential candidates

00:08:12.300 are talking about it

00:08:13.040 all the time.

00:08:13.700 And so,

00:08:14.740 as someone who's looking

00:08:15.680 at politics and culture,

00:08:16.640 I have to talk about it.

00:08:18.320 They say,

00:08:18.600 yeah,

00:08:18.700 but why do you have to say

00:08:19.820 that men can't be women?

00:08:22.460 Who is it really hurting?

00:08:23.780 Now,

00:08:24.120 look,

00:08:24.320 this is a very tangible example

00:08:26.300 of who's being hurt

00:08:27.020 by this ideology.

00:08:27.760 but this isn't the reason.

00:08:33.420 I mean,

00:08:33.700 the reason to say

00:08:35.340 that men are not women 0.99

00:08:36.380 is not because

00:08:37.660 a Brazilian wax shop owner

00:08:40.680 gets hurt sometimes.

00:08:42.700 The reason is because

00:08:44.020 it is true

00:08:44.920 that men are not women.

00:08:46.480 And when you deal in lies,

00:08:47.860 when you allow yourself

00:08:48.960 to be taken in by fantasies,

00:08:50.660 even if it seems

00:08:51.780 innocent enough at first,

00:08:52.980 who is it going to hurt?

00:08:53.740 You're talking about

00:08:54.140 0.2% of the population.

00:08:55.800 It's not a big deal.

00:08:56.860 Forget about it.

00:08:58.040 Even if it's so tempting.

00:08:59.400 I mean,

00:08:59.520 that's the temptation

00:09:00.180 to deal in lies.

00:09:00.840 It's just a little white lie.

00:09:02.000 It's just a little fantasy.

00:09:04.100 It's easier.

00:09:05.120 It's easier than dealing

00:09:06.220 in the reality.

00:09:07.240 But then you go down the line

00:09:08.780 and all of a sudden,

00:09:09.960 yeah,

00:09:10.140 maybe these immigrant wax owners

00:09:12.400 are going to be hurt.

00:09:13.680 And then you go further

00:09:14.420 down the line

00:09:14.960 and what you now have

00:09:15.840 in Canada

00:09:16.400 and soon to be

00:09:17.820 in the United States

00:09:18.660 is men

00:09:21.420 using the strong arm

00:09:23.660 of the state

00:09:24.600 to force women 1.00

00:09:26.660 into seeing

00:09:29.140 their genitals 1.00

00:09:29.820 to force women 1.00

00:09:31.180 into very uncomfortable,

00:09:33.380 abusive,

00:09:34.600 bizarre,

00:09:35.600 creepy,

00:09:36.480 weird situations

00:09:37.560 by the force

00:09:38.500 of government.

00:09:39.040 touch this dude's genitals 0.99

00:09:42.380 or lose your business.

00:09:43.820 That's what the state

00:09:44.920 in Canada

00:09:45.860 told this Brazilian immigrant.

00:09:47.580 So this guy's filed

00:09:49.620 15 complaints

00:09:51.040 with esthetician.

00:09:53.660 This is the word

00:09:54.740 for people

00:09:55.620 who deal in beauty.

00:09:58.280 Esthetician.

00:09:59.820 He's filed 15 complaints

00:10:01.620 with this

00:10:02.320 British Columbia

00:10:03.560 Human Rights Tribunal

00:10:05.280 seeking financial restitution

00:10:07.180 and the discrimination

00:10:08.660 that he claims

00:10:09.480 is gender identity.

00:10:10.840 The reason I say

00:10:11.700 that this is coming

00:10:12.380 to the United States

00:10:13.200 is there are actually cases

00:10:14.920 in the pipeline

00:10:15.700 right now

00:10:16.220 on their way

00:10:17.000 to the Supreme Court

00:10:17.820 that are going to

00:10:19.020 pose this question

00:10:20.420 to the highest court

00:10:21.460 in the United States.

00:10:22.560 In the United States

00:10:23.800 and Canada

00:10:24.320 and elsewhere,

00:10:25.140 we have certain protections

00:10:26.460 against discrimination.

00:10:27.860 So we have protections

00:10:28.860 against discrimination

00:10:29.820 on race.

00:10:31.180 We have some protections

00:10:33.020 against discrimination

00:10:33.720 on religion.

00:10:35.180 And we have protections

00:10:37.660 against discrimination

00:10:38.940 on the basis of sex.

00:10:41.480 This is the whole idea

00:10:42.640 of Title IX,

00:10:43.520 all these different laws

00:10:45.840 that were passed

00:10:46.360 in the 1960s.

00:10:49.160 So you already have

00:10:51.200 laws against discrimination

00:10:52.320 on the basis of sex.

00:10:55.020 Now what they want to add

00:10:56.500 is protections

00:10:57.400 against discrimination

00:10:58.200 on the basis

00:10:59.480 of gender identity.

00:11:04.480 But to have laws

00:11:06.620 protecting against discrimination

00:11:08.420 on the basis

00:11:08.920 of gender identity

00:11:09.860 destroys the laws

00:11:11.860 that protect

00:11:12.760 against discrimination

00:11:13.680 on the basis

00:11:14.300 of sex.

00:11:15.440 Here's a very simple

00:11:16.300 version of this.

00:11:17.300 Speaking of Title IX,

00:11:19.420 speaking of all

00:11:20.900 of these protections,

00:11:21.700 particularly at schools,

00:11:23.760 you know,

00:11:24.800 female sports

00:11:25.540 in high school

00:11:26.140 or in college.

00:11:27.940 We have different sports

00:11:29.500 for men and women

00:11:30.300 and boys and girls

00:11:31.020 in high school.

00:11:31.760 And the reason is

00:11:32.380 men are physically

00:11:32.900 stronger than women 1.00

00:11:33.760 and they're faster

00:11:35.360 than women. 0.99

00:11:36.020 And so if you had men

00:11:37.740 competing against women 0.76

00:11:38.860 in, let's say,

00:11:40.060 high school track,

00:11:40.800 the men are going to win.

00:11:43.100 And the women 1.00

00:11:43.720 are going to lose

00:11:44.240 and then they don't

00:11:44.660 get their scholarships

00:11:45.300 and they don't get

00:11:45.800 their trophies

00:11:46.300 and they don't get

00:11:46.740 to go to the championship

00:11:47.500 and really they might

00:11:48.420 as well not compete.

00:11:50.920 So that's why we have

00:11:52.320 these protections

00:11:52.900 on the basis of sex

00:11:54.080 and that creates

00:11:54.720 female girls 1.00

00:11:56.520 high school track.

00:11:58.380 The minute that you

00:11:59.180 have a protection

00:11:59.740 on the basis

00:12:00.220 of gender identity,

00:12:01.760 you no longer

00:12:02.420 have the protection

00:12:03.040 on the basis of sex

00:12:04.000 because men are now

00:12:05.220 allowed to compete

00:12:05.880 in the girls

00:12:06.440 high school track.

00:12:07.860 And guess what's

00:12:08.260 going to happen?

00:12:08.640 They're going to win.

00:12:09.160 That's what we've

00:12:09.540 been seeing happening

00:12:10.200 in Connecticut.

00:12:11.580 And there are cases

00:12:12.340 now moving all the way

00:12:13.260 up in the pipeline

00:12:14.820 of the courts

00:12:15.380 that are going to

00:12:15.960 have to determine this.

00:12:17.320 Are we going to be

00:12:18.080 a society that protects

00:12:19.640 people on the basis

00:12:20.540 of sex or are we

00:12:21.160 going to be a society

00:12:22.100 that protects people

00:12:22.880 on the basis

00:12:23.640 of imagination,

00:12:24.580 which is to say

00:12:25.160 does not protect women 0.99

00:12:26.280 and does prefer men? 0.98

00:12:27.780 That's the question

00:12:28.680 that we're going

00:12:29.580 to have to answer.

00:12:31.000 And the left

00:12:31.560 has embraced

00:12:32.440 the gender identity.

00:12:33.720 They're ignoring

00:12:34.440 the sex now.

00:12:35.160 They're done with sex.

00:12:36.220 Sex was useful to them 1.00

00:12:37.220 when they were dividing

00:12:37.900 people up on feminism

00:12:39.680 in the 1960s and 70s.

00:12:41.380 Now that's over.

00:12:42.360 They're talking about

00:12:43.200 gender identity.

00:12:45.540 Don't take my word for it.

00:12:46.860 Take the words

00:12:48.280 of the Democratic candidates

00:12:50.640 for president.

00:12:51.480 We'll get to what

00:12:51.840 they have to say

00:12:52.260 in a second.

00:12:52.700 But first,

00:12:53.620 support for the

00:12:54.080 Michael Knowles show

00:12:54.620 comes from our friends

00:12:55.520 at Rocket Mortgage

00:12:56.420 by Quicken Loans.

00:12:57.640 Finding the right house

00:12:58.520 is not easy.

00:13:00.000 And I would know that

00:13:00.680 because I live in L.A.

00:13:01.760 In L.A.,

00:13:02.600 every house you want

00:13:03.220 to buy is like

00:13:03.760 $7 zillion

00:13:04.460 and every neighborhood

00:13:05.980 is, you know,

00:13:07.300 they're so particular.

00:13:09.160 However,

00:13:10.100 once I do find a house,

00:13:11.480 I can at least

00:13:12.140 rest easy

00:13:12.980 because finding

00:13:13.520 the right mortgage

00:13:14.200 will be easy too.

00:13:23.120 That means

00:13:23.480 that their number

00:13:23.920 one goal

00:13:24.340 is to make

00:13:53.020 in a row.

00:13:53.460 You know,

00:13:53.680 people don't learn

00:13:54.420 anything anymore.

00:13:55.460 They learn about

00:13:56.520 gender ideology

00:13:58.080 and ballet

00:13:59.120 and all these

00:13:59.700 super-duper ballet

00:14:01.820 scientific studies.

00:14:02.900 They don't actually

00:14:03.680 learn about

00:14:04.480 practical things

00:14:05.260 like getting a mortgage

00:14:06.000 or doing your taxes.

00:14:07.420 I don't know

00:14:07.780 any of those things.

00:14:08.500 Fortunately,

00:14:09.000 Rocket Mortgage

00:14:09.600 is there

00:14:10.060 because Rocket Mortgage

00:14:23.280 get mortgage.

00:14:24.420 Simple as that.

00:14:26.280 The left

00:14:26.920 has made their choice.

00:14:27.740 They're picking

00:14:28.160 gender ideology

00:14:29.160 as the new

00:14:30.240 protected class.

00:14:31.820 Which means

00:14:32.320 they are ditching

00:14:33.180 sex as the old 0.99

00:14:34.660 protected class.

00:14:36.080 And they're doing it

00:14:36.920 on their Twitter accounts

00:14:37.800 and they're doing it

00:14:38.560 at the presidential debates.

00:14:41.500 So three Democratic

00:14:42.860 candidates for president

00:14:43.780 have now added

00:14:45.020 their preferred pronouns

00:14:46.960 to their Twitter account.

00:14:48.760 And obviously

00:14:49.480 this is kind of

00:14:50.240 just some silly

00:14:50.820 virtue signaling

00:14:51.620 to the woke left.

00:14:52.900 But the premise

00:14:54.100 of the pronouns,

00:14:55.340 the preferred pronouns,

00:14:56.700 is that it is

00:14:57.380 entirely possible

00:14:58.500 that

00:14:59.700 they identify

00:15:02.160 as a sex

00:15:03.540 that is not

00:15:04.540 their actual sex.

00:15:07.260 The idea being

00:15:08.040 my name is

00:15:08.600 Michael Knowles.

00:15:10.080 I have an Adam's apple.

00:15:11.440 I have a pretty deep voice.

00:15:12.480 I'm not a hulking

00:15:13.020 Adonis of a man,

00:15:14.000 but I'm at least

00:15:14.580 recognizable as a man.

00:15:17.000 Bone structure,

00:15:17.900 that sort of thing.

00:15:19.000 Other things too.

00:15:19.820 I don't go into

00:15:20.280 wax salon,

00:15:20.920 so I won't get into it.

00:15:23.000 It is entirely

00:15:24.060 plausible

00:15:25.220 under the pronoun,

00:15:26.680 preferred pronoun regime,

00:15:27.660 that I could say

00:15:28.420 my preferred pronouns

00:15:29.360 are she and her.

00:15:31.800 And you would have

00:15:32.500 to refer to me that way.

00:15:33.360 That's what

00:15:33.720 Elizabeth Warren is doing.

00:15:35.140 She added 0.63

00:15:35.440 she and her 0.76

00:15:36.720 to her Twitter account.

00:15:38.800 Actually what she first did

00:15:39.720 is that she and hers,

00:15:42.380 the possessive of it,

00:15:44.020 and she did it

00:15:44.760 because she's just

00:15:45.400 an old white boomer lady 0.99

00:15:46.900 who really

00:15:47.940 all she wants to do

00:15:49.040 is be cool

00:15:49.700 and woke

00:15:50.180 and super hip

00:15:50.940 and she just isn't.

00:15:52.600 You know,

00:15:53.020 she's like the mom

00:15:54.220 on Mean Girls. 1.00

00:15:55.660 I'm not a regular

00:15:56.400 presidential candidate.

00:15:57.660 I'm a cool

00:15:58.340 presidential candidate,

00:15:59.520 you know,

00:15:59.800 but then she just 0.57

00:16:00.320 gets it wrong.

00:16:01.040 So she's edited that

00:16:01.880 since she and her.

00:16:04.580 Not to be outdone,

00:16:05.560 Bill de Blasio,

00:16:06.980 who I completely forgot

00:16:08.480 was in the presidential race,

00:16:10.120 current Bolshevik mayor

00:16:11.060 of New York,

00:16:11.740 he added he and him,

00:16:14.200 which is so good.

00:16:14.780 I was confused.

00:16:15.540 I didn't know

00:16:15.840 if I was going to call

00:16:16.520 this like tough-talking,

00:16:18.780 tall New York mayor.

00:16:20.220 I didn't know

00:16:20.860 if I was going to call him

00:16:21.780 a little girl or something.

00:16:23.100 I was going to call him she. 0.99

00:16:24.160 But he adds this too

00:16:24.980 because he is,

00:16:25.980 like Elizabeth Warren,

00:16:27.340 always positioned himself

00:16:29.120 as a far left-wing candidate

00:16:30.900 and on the progressive

00:16:33.140 and woke side

00:16:33.840 of the Democratic Party.

00:16:35.500 But I have to say

00:16:37.780 they both got outwoked,

00:16:40.220 Warren and Bill de Blasio.

00:16:42.000 They got outwoked

00:16:43.140 by Julian Castro,

00:16:44.940 who said that his preferred pronouns

00:16:47.260 are he,

00:16:49.180 him,

00:16:49.700 and El.

00:16:53.560 Ooh.

00:16:55.120 Spanish.

00:16:56.480 Woke.

00:16:57.320 That's so much more woke

00:16:58.620 than those two white people.

00:17:00.480 Those two knuckle-draggers. 1.00

00:17:01.920 They didn't even add

00:17:02.480 a Spanish pronoun.

00:17:05.520 El.

00:17:06.860 There is like a kind of

00:17:08.220 esoteric message here,

00:17:09.420 by the way, too,

00:17:09.900 because El

00:17:10.400 is also a word for

00:17:12.380 God.

00:17:13.800 You know,

00:17:15.420 like El.

00:17:15.980 El,

00:17:16.480 Allah,

00:17:17.520 or El,

00:17:18.300 it means God.

00:17:19.860 And so,

00:17:20.660 I do like this idea

00:17:21.840 that we are playing God

00:17:23.540 when we are trying to say,

00:17:24.700 I can recreate myself.

00:17:26.120 I'm a man,

00:17:26.680 but I will recreate myself

00:17:27.580 as a woman.

00:17:29.900 I have total power

00:17:31.200 over my nature

00:17:32.000 and my circumstances.

00:17:33.440 I mean,

00:17:33.620 that is the implicit premise

00:17:35.840 that the left is talking about.

00:17:37.560 And it's coincidentally

00:17:38.900 being expressed

00:17:39.520 in those pronouns.

00:17:40.180 But according,

00:17:42.060 he has these preferred pronouns there,

00:17:44.180 but even that wasn't woke enough.

00:17:46.040 Even the Spanish pronoun

00:17:47.240 wasn't work enough

00:17:48.220 because according to

00:17:49.760 the New York Magazine reporter

00:17:50.960 Olivia Nuzzi,

00:17:51.980 this is what she tweeted out,

00:17:52.900 quote,

00:17:53.380 at a Planned Parenthood event,

00:17:55.900 a non-binary activist,

00:17:58.340 that's an activist

00:17:59.060 who doesn't think

00:18:00.320 that he's either man or woman.

00:18:02.200 He's some combination

00:18:03.960 or neither,

00:18:05.080 whatever.

00:18:06.140 A non-binary activist

00:18:07.560 just asked Castro

00:18:08.960 how he'll expand

00:18:10.360 sexual and reproductive health

00:18:12.520 for trans people.

00:18:14.640 Castro responds

00:18:15.520 by first asking

00:18:16.340 which pronoun

00:18:17.140 the activist prefers.

00:18:19.560 They replied,

00:18:21.560 I actually don't use

00:18:23.500 any pronouns,

00:18:24.860 which received some applause.

00:18:27.560 Ooh,

00:18:28.320 I don't use any pronouns.

00:18:29.520 So pretty soon,

00:18:30.320 Castro's going to have

00:18:31.360 to delete those pronouns

00:18:32.240 because the new woke thing,

00:18:34.360 for the last five minutes,

00:18:35.400 the woke thing

00:18:36.240 has been to add

00:18:36.800 your preferred pronouns,

00:18:37.900 but pretty soon

00:18:38.420 that is going to become

00:18:39.380 bigoted and transphobic

00:18:41.140 and homophobic

00:18:41.940 and whatever-phobic.

00:18:43.360 And so now,

00:18:44.060 the new one is going to be

00:18:44.900 erasing all distinctions

00:18:46.320 whatsoever,

00:18:47.440 which is what this is really

00:18:48.600 boiling down to.

00:18:49.820 Any distinction

00:18:50.540 between any sort of

00:18:51.440 human person

00:18:52.280 is going to be

00:18:54.120 wiped away.

00:18:55.300 And we'll see what that means

00:18:56.220 for women

00:18:56.600 in just a second.

00:18:58.500 But Castro

00:18:59.360 is the vanguard.

00:19:00.840 He is leading

00:19:01.440 the way here.

00:19:02.140 You remember

00:19:03.060 in that

00:19:03.640 first Democratic

00:19:05.140 presidential debate

00:19:06.060 when everyone else

00:19:07.100 was endorsing

00:19:07.760 abortion on demand,

00:19:08.880 paid for by taxpayers,

00:19:10.500 without apology,

00:19:11.740 up until the point of birth.

00:19:13.000 Castro took it

00:19:13.640 a step further

00:19:14.260 and he endorsed abortion

00:19:16.100 for biological men.

00:19:18.280 I don't believe

00:19:18.880 only in reproductive

00:19:19.860 freedom.

00:19:21.640 I believe in

00:19:22.100 reproductive justice. 0.99

00:19:24.740 And, you know,

00:19:26.360 what that means

00:19:27.140 is that just because

00:19:28.420 a woman,

00:19:29.700 or let's also

00:19:30.560 not forget

00:19:31.160 someone in the

00:19:32.200 trans community,

00:19:33.380 a trans female,

00:19:34.180 is poor

00:19:36.760 doesn't mean

00:19:37.680 they shouldn't

00:19:38.100 have the right

00:19:38.720 to exercise

00:19:39.440 that right to choose.

00:19:41.120 And so I absolutely

00:19:41.880 would cover the right

00:19:43.200 to have an abortion.

00:19:44.380 That's right.

00:19:46.100 Woo! 0.99

00:19:47.740 Yeah, you're endorsing

00:19:48.740 abortions for men.

00:19:50.060 I mean, this shows

00:19:50.740 a little bit

00:19:51.920 of his ignorance here

00:19:52.640 because he wants

00:19:53.860 to seem like

00:19:54.460 the wokest candidate.

00:19:55.260 So he says,

00:19:55.680 I don't believe

00:19:55.980 in reproductive freedom. 0.92

00:19:57.040 I believe in

00:19:57.540 reproductive justice. 0.99

00:19:59.960 You say,

00:20:00.520 Julian Castro,

00:20:02.220 what's the difference?

00:20:03.160 I don't know.

00:20:04.180 But one sounds

00:20:05.300 really serious.

00:20:06.960 And then he says,

00:20:08.680 we need to not forget

00:20:09.740 about trans women.

00:20:11.100 And I think what he

00:20:11.820 meant to say

00:20:12.260 was trans men.

00:20:13.780 Trans men is the term

00:20:14.960 to refer to

00:20:15.860 women who dress

00:20:17.840 like men.

00:20:19.040 And so obviously

00:20:20.040 trans men,

00:20:21.120 which are really

00:20:21.620 just women, 1.00

00:20:22.420 can still have babies

00:20:23.500 because they have

00:20:24.200 a uterus 0.78

00:20:24.620 and they're women. 1.00

00:20:25.880 But trans women 0.99

00:20:27.300 cannot have babies

00:20:28.340 because they're men.

00:20:30.120 And in Canada,

00:20:31.280 they can't get

00:20:32.160 Brazilian waxes either

00:20:33.140 because they're men.

00:20:33.860 They're not

00:20:34.780 women. 0.81

00:20:35.900 He got that a little

00:20:36.540 bit confused.

00:20:37.360 Or he's endorsing

00:20:38.280 abortions for men.

00:20:39.140 I don't know which

00:20:39.640 is worse.

00:20:40.880 Point is,

00:20:42.200 gender identity

00:20:43.540 as a category

00:20:44.640 is essentially

00:20:47.740 a misogynistic idea

00:20:49.300 because it erases

00:20:50.600 women. 0.81

00:20:52.480 I think now

00:20:53.320 this is taught

00:20:53.840 in schools

00:20:54.380 as though it's

00:20:55.260 just obvious

00:20:55.960 that there is

00:20:56.940 biological sex

00:20:58.100 and gender identity

00:20:59.520 and that those

00:21:00.240 are totally

00:21:00.860 separate.

00:21:02.380 No,

00:21:02.960 there is no

00:21:03.400 such thing

00:21:03.840 as gender identity.

00:21:05.000 This is a

00:21:05.400 completely fictional

00:21:06.200 concept that is

00:21:07.240 invented by

00:21:08.020 misogynistic

00:21:09.160 ideologues

00:21:09.960 who are erasing

00:21:10.980 women. 0.81

00:21:13.260 The left

00:21:13.880 talks about

00:21:14.380 erasure,

00:21:15.200 right?

00:21:15.480 And usually

00:21:16.160 they use it

00:21:16.920 in a silly way.

00:21:17.800 This is one

00:21:18.520 example

00:21:19.060 where it's

00:21:21.820 true,

00:21:22.140 where it's

00:21:22.340 actually happening,

00:21:23.180 where gender

00:21:23.580 identity is

00:21:24.160 erasing women.

00:21:25.000 gender ideology

00:21:27.660 erases women. 0.98

00:21:29.920 What is a

00:21:31.160 woman? 0.96

00:21:32.240 What is a

00:21:32.660 woman? 0.96

00:21:34.200 Just ask

00:21:34.960 yourself that.

00:21:35.400 I mean,

00:21:35.620 anybody who

00:21:36.340 embraces the

00:21:37.020 gender ideology,

00:21:37.820 just say,

00:21:38.060 what is a

00:21:38.760 woman? 0.96

00:21:40.240 Well,

00:21:40.680 I know that

00:21:41.320 I'm a woman.

00:21:42.520 Okay,

00:21:42.740 how do you

00:21:43.060 know that

00:21:43.320 you're a

00:21:43.580 woman? 0.96

00:21:44.240 I just

00:21:44.820 know deep

00:21:45.820 down.

00:21:47.160 Okay,

00:21:47.760 well,

00:21:48.200 I don't know

00:21:49.600 that you're

00:21:49.880 a woman.

00:21:50.320 If you're a 0.88

00:21:50.700 man who

00:21:51.020 says you're

00:21:51.380 a woman,

00:21:51.900 how can

00:21:52.580 you convince

00:21:53.020 me that

00:21:54.300 you even

00:21:54.680 know what

00:21:54.980 it is to

00:21:55.340 be a

00:21:55.580 woman? 0.96

00:21:55.820 What you're

00:21:56.140 really saying

00:21:56.620 then is

00:21:56.860 that men

00:21:57.460 have the

00:21:58.160 right to

00:21:58.700 define what

00:21:59.660 it is to

00:22:00.400 be a

00:22:00.680 woman.

00:22:01.000 Now,

00:22:01.260 I'll give

00:22:01.560 you a 0.57

00:22:01.740 very basic

00:22:02.260 answer of

00:22:02.760 what is

00:22:03.020 a woman.

00:22:04.840 A person

00:22:05.760 who isn't

00:22:06.260 a man.

00:22:07.360 I'll give

00:22:07.880 you a 0.57

00:22:08.300 definition of

00:22:08.860 what a

00:22:09.300 man is,

00:22:09.780 is a

00:22:10.020 person who

00:22:10.420 isn't a

00:22:10.800 woman.

00:22:11.440 Sexual

00:22:11.800 difference,

00:22:12.760 the difference

00:22:13.200 between men

00:22:13.680 and women, 1.00

00:22:14.600 is fundamental

00:22:16.100 to who we

00:22:17.080 are.

00:22:18.220 That's why

00:22:18.600 it appears

00:22:19.080 at the very

00:22:19.780 beginning of

00:22:20.540 every creation

00:22:21.280 story.

00:22:22.920 Within the

00:22:23.620 first chapters

00:22:24.320 of Genesis,

00:22:25.600 you have

00:22:26.140 sexual

00:22:26.680 difference.

00:22:28.100 Eve,

00:22:28.640 pulled from

00:22:29.040 Adam's

00:22:29.380 rib,

00:22:30.300 complimentary

00:22:30.760 to him,

00:22:32.080 different,

00:22:32.800 but she

00:22:33.060 compliments

00:22:33.540 him.

00:22:35.500 Gilgamesh,

00:22:36.100 sexual

00:22:36.400 difference,

00:22:36.780 right in the

00:22:37.040 beginning.

00:22:37.300 There's a

00:22:37.600 reason.

00:22:37.960 This is

00:22:38.160 essential to

00:22:39.240 who we

00:22:39.640 are.

00:22:41.600 If there

00:22:42.240 is no

00:22:42.660 sexual

00:22:43.000 difference,

00:22:43.540 then there

00:22:43.800 is no

00:22:44.140 such thing

00:22:44.520 as women.

00:22:45.400 If there's

00:22:46.080 no biological

00:22:47.200 or spiritual

00:22:48.460 or whatever

00:22:49.140 kind of

00:22:49.540 difference

00:22:49.960 between the

00:22:50.840 two types

00:22:51.700 of human

00:22:52.200 beings,

00:22:52.700 then there's

00:22:53.140 only one

00:22:53.560 type.

00:22:54.240 You can

00:22:54.580 call that

00:22:54.940 type man

00:22:55.440 or you can

00:22:55.760 call that

00:22:56.060 type woman 0.99

00:22:56.540 or you can

00:22:56.920 call that

00:22:57.300 type whatever,

00:22:58.400 but there's

00:22:58.760 only one.

00:22:59.440 There isn't

00:22:59.940 that difference.

00:23:01.160 Gender

00:23:01.580 ideology seeks

00:23:02.640 this kind of

00:23:03.160 bizarre

00:23:03.640 conformity.

00:23:05.320 You might

00:23:05.820 say,

00:23:06.100 it's not

00:23:06.460 just that

00:23:06.740 it erases

00:23:07.140 women. 0.81

00:23:08.000 Maybe it

00:23:08.540 actually

00:23:09.000 preserves

00:23:09.460 women and 0.99

00:23:10.000 it erases

00:23:10.580 men.

00:23:11.460 You ever

00:23:11.700 think about

00:23:12.060 that,

00:23:12.380 Michael?

00:23:12.840 It doesn't.

00:23:13.740 Because when

00:23:14.940 you erase

00:23:15.700 sexual

00:23:16.220 difference,

00:23:16.660 this

00:23:17.280 naturally,

00:23:19.680 I would

00:23:20.340 dare say

00:23:20.800 inevitably,

00:23:21.640 redounds to

00:23:22.200 the benefit

00:23:22.640 of men.

00:23:24.780 How do I

00:23:25.420 know that?

00:23:25.760 Well,

00:23:25.940 because we

00:23:26.260 started to

00:23:26.720 see that

00:23:27.060 in the

00:23:27.300 1960s and

00:23:28.160 70s with

00:23:28.700 second wave

00:23:29.120 feminism. 1.00

00:23:30.900 Second wave

00:23:31.540 feminism,

00:23:32.060 which rejected

00:23:32.600 all traditional

00:23:33.420 ideas of

00:23:34.040 femininity,

00:23:35.860 rejected all

00:23:36.620 kind of

00:23:36.960 traditional

00:23:37.360 gender roles, 0.98

00:23:38.540 but what

00:23:39.100 did it do?

00:23:39.600 In the name

00:23:39.960 of women's

00:23:40.420 liberation,

00:23:41.000 it said that

00:23:41.460 women had 0.99

00:23:42.300 to just start

00:23:42.800 behaving like

00:23:43.540 men.

00:23:44.800 Women couldn't 1.00

00:23:45.320 stay at

00:23:45.660 home.

00:23:45.960 Women couldn't 1.00

00:23:46.420 raise children.

00:23:47.180 Women shouldn't 1.00

00:23:47.660 have children

00:23:48.200 really at

00:23:48.640 all in many

00:23:49.120 cases.

00:23:50.000 Women should 1.00

00:23:50.880 go work

00:23:51.740 100 hours a

00:23:52.740 week.

00:23:53.380 Women should 1.00

00:23:54.120 compete in

00:23:55.920 physical sports

00:23:56.860 all the time.

00:23:57.720 Women should 1.00

00:23:58.320 be drafted to

00:23:59.140 join the

00:23:59.400 military.

00:24:00.100 Women should 1.00

00:24:00.640 do things

00:24:01.640 that for

00:24:02.420 perfectly

00:24:02.900 natural reasons

00:24:03.860 men are

00:24:04.960 more geared

00:24:05.580 toward.

00:24:06.180 When men

00:24:06.680 and women

00:24:06.980 compete

00:24:07.320 physically,

00:24:07.880 what happens?

00:24:09.620 Men win.

00:24:11.740 And women

00:24:12.160 are erased.

00:24:13.760 When men

00:24:14.240 and women

00:24:14.560 compete

00:24:14.960 professionally,

00:24:15.540 men often

00:24:17.100 win.

00:24:18.220 Not all

00:24:18.700 the time.

00:24:19.360 Not saying

00:24:19.780 women can't 1.00

00:24:20.320 be perfectly

00:24:20.900 competent and

00:24:23.280 expert professionals

00:24:24.360 and extraordinarily

00:24:25.280 ambitious and

00:24:26.280 rise to the top

00:24:27.440 of their fields.

00:24:27.900 I'm not saying

00:24:28.400 that.

00:24:28.820 I'm saying

00:24:29.400 that generally

00:24:30.220 speaking,

00:24:30.760 when men and

00:24:31.260 women compete 0.96

00:24:31.720 professionally,

00:24:32.660 men win for

00:24:34.060 natural reasons

00:24:35.020 because men tend

00:24:36.300 to be more

00:24:37.220 professionally inclined,

00:24:38.960 more professionally

00:24:39.600 focused.

00:24:40.420 They want to

00:24:40.960 spend more

00:24:41.500 time at work.

00:24:42.560 They want to

00:24:42.880 dedicate more

00:24:43.440 of their mental

00:24:43.920 energy to

00:24:44.800 their jobs.

00:24:45.480 They're more

00:24:45.760 single-minded.

00:24:46.760 They're less

00:24:47.520 able to keep

00:24:48.860 track of lots

00:24:49.820 of different

00:24:50.180 things.

00:24:50.700 They're generally

00:24:51.320 less organized.

00:24:52.780 Men are generally 0.99

00:24:53.560 less nurturing.

00:24:55.120 And the

00:24:55.780 biological fact is

00:24:57.040 men are unable 0.90

00:24:57.780 to conceive

00:24:58.360 life.

00:24:59.640 So women 0.99

00:25:00.380 naturally can

00:25:01.360 conceive life

00:25:02.100 and in most

00:25:02.760 cases they want

00:25:03.600 to conceive

00:25:04.080 life and they

00:25:04.620 want to nurture

00:25:05.160 and they want

00:25:05.560 to raise

00:25:05.840 children.

00:25:06.420 So there is

00:25:07.080 a natural

00:25:07.860 professional

00:25:08.640 advantage to

00:25:09.900 men.

00:25:11.500 And feminism 0.99

00:25:12.040 set the stage

00:25:12.940 for this gender

00:25:13.500 ideology by

00:25:14.440 exalting

00:25:15.080 traditionally male

00:25:16.160 attributes over

00:25:17.040 female attributes. 0.95

00:25:18.360 Now,

00:25:19.580 you know,

00:25:20.060 people look at

00:25:20.720 transgenderism and

00:25:21.660 feminism as 0.86

00:25:22.440 completely opposed

00:25:23.360 to one another.

00:25:24.020 In many ways

00:25:24.660 they are.

00:25:25.700 Feminism seeks 1.00

00:25:26.440 to allow women

00:25:27.120 to define what

00:25:27.940 it is to be a

00:25:28.500 woman.

00:25:29.440 Transgender

00:25:29.920 ideology says

00:25:31.480 there's no such

00:25:32.060 thing as men

00:25:32.560 and women and 1.00

00:25:33.200 by the way men

00:25:33.880 can define what

00:25:34.580 womanhood is. 1.00

00:25:35.320 They seem

00:25:35.740 opposed.

00:25:37.020 Except gender 0.54

00:25:38.600 ideology is built

00:25:39.600 on feminism. 0.99

00:25:40.420 When feminism 1.00

00:25:40.840 in the 1960s

00:25:42.000 exalted every

00:25:43.520 male attribute,

00:25:44.600 male characteristics,

00:25:45.660 male preferences

00:25:46.320 over traditional

00:25:48.400 ideas of

00:25:49.660 femininity,

00:25:51.360 gender ideology

00:25:52.060 came in as the

00:25:52.840 sucker punch at

00:25:53.580 the end and

00:25:54.120 finished off the

00:25:55.180 job.

00:25:57.480 And so you're

00:25:57.920 in this very

00:25:58.560 awful situation

00:25:59.880 where men and

00:26:00.400 women are now 1.00

00:26:00.840 competing with

00:26:01.580 one another.

00:26:02.600 And it's

00:26:02.920 resulting in

00:26:04.180 wax salons and

00:26:06.320 Canada being

00:26:07.200 shut down

00:26:07.880 because women 0.99

00:26:09.400 won't agree to

00:26:10.320 fondle men's

00:26:11.160 genitals even

00:26:12.360 if the men are

00:26:12.780 wearing a dress.

00:26:14.320 The traditional

00:26:14.880 view of course is

00:26:16.160 that men and

00:26:16.560 women aren't 1.00

00:26:17.060 supposed to

00:26:17.460 compete.

00:26:18.320 We don't

00:26:18.900 compete with

00:26:19.380 each other.

00:26:20.920 Men and women

00:26:21.400 are supposed to

00:26:21.960 love each other.

00:26:23.380 Men and women

00:26:23.900 are made for

00:26:24.600 each other.

00:26:25.220 That statement

00:26:25.680 is probably

00:26:26.180 going to be

00:26:26.560 banned as

00:26:26.980 hate speech.

00:26:27.480 I'm probably

00:26:27.720 going to lose

00:26:28.100 my YouTube

00:26:28.800 channel because

00:26:29.420 of that.

00:26:29.760 But that's

00:26:31.880 the traditional

00:26:33.320 idea.

00:26:33.920 I'm not in

00:26:34.340 competition with

00:26:35.200 women. 0.81

00:26:35.560 I love women. 1.00

00:26:37.560 You know,

00:26:37.940 the old line is

00:26:38.800 there will never

00:26:39.240 be a gender

00:26:39.820 war because

00:26:40.740 everybody is

00:26:41.280 sleeping with

00:26:41.780 the enemy.

00:26:42.720 That's true.

00:26:44.080 That should be

00:26:44.600 true.

00:26:45.900 But hatred of

00:26:47.000 women and 0.99

00:26:48.200 hatred of

00:26:48.660 womanhood is 1.00

00:26:49.380 on the rise

00:26:50.100 on the left.

00:26:51.420 You see it not

00:26:52.040 just in wax

00:26:53.020 salons in

00:26:53.980 Canada.

00:26:54.720 You see it not

00:26:55.260 just in the

00:26:56.080 presidential debates.

00:26:57.380 You see it in

00:26:58.160 the Miss World

00:26:58.720 USA pageant.

00:27:00.540 Miss Michigan.

00:27:02.020 You know,

00:27:02.400 it's a little

00:27:02.640 confusing because

00:27:03.220 there are like

00:27:03.520 20 different

00:27:04.060 Miss Americas

00:27:04.580 now.

00:27:05.160 There's Miss 0.67

00:27:05.520 America,

00:27:06.040 Miss Universe,

00:27:06.700 Miss World

00:27:07.060 USA.

00:27:07.780 So this one,

00:27:08.440 the latter,

00:27:08.960 Miss World

00:27:09.280 USA, has

00:27:10.200 stripped Miss 0.94

00:27:10.900 Michigan of

00:27:11.420 her crown.

00:27:12.660 And the

00:27:13.000 reason they

00:27:13.820 did it is

00:27:15.880 because she

00:27:16.360 refused to

00:27:17.200 wear the

00:27:17.940 hijab.

00:27:19.000 She refused

00:27:19.840 to submit

00:27:20.720 herself to

00:27:22.200 an oppressive

00:27:23.500 and alien

00:27:25.500 religions

00:27:26.380 practices for

00:27:27.860 women. 0.81

00:27:28.260 She's not

00:27:28.660 Muslim.

00:27:29.560 She has

00:27:29.940 no obligation

00:27:31.560 to wear

00:27:31.940 the hijab

00:27:32.520 and she

00:27:32.820 objects to

00:27:33.360 the hijab

00:27:33.840 on religious

00:27:34.480 and ethical

00:27:35.680 grounds because

00:27:36.780 it is used

00:27:38.080 throughout the

00:27:38.680 world as a

00:27:39.280 tool of

00:27:39.820 women's

00:27:40.600 oppression.

00:27:41.400 She's 20

00:27:42.060 years old,

00:27:42.960 this girl.

00:27:43.680 She is a

00:27:44.260 conservative

00:27:44.660 activist.

00:27:45.480 She's a

00:27:45.780 Trump supporter.

00:27:46.560 Her name is

00:27:46.860 Kathy Zhu.

00:27:48.240 She's also a

00:27:49.120 woman of

00:27:49.520 color, to use

00:27:50.060 the left's

00:27:50.460 term.

00:27:50.980 She is a

00:27:51.620 Chinese

00:27:51.920 immigrant.

00:27:52.420 She came

00:27:52.720 here at

00:27:53.380 age five.

00:27:53.960 She should

00:27:54.280 check every

00:27:54.880 box that the

00:27:55.540 left is supposed

00:27:56.080 to like,

00:27:56.800 except the

00:27:57.320 left increasingly

00:27:58.560 hates women. 0.69

00:28:01.200 I don't know if

00:28:02.080 they're consciously

00:28:02.860 hating women.

00:28:03.480 I'm not accusing

00:28:04.020 them of that.

00:28:04.820 I'm saying the

00:28:05.540 logical conclusion

00:28:06.620 of their

00:28:07.540 perverted

00:28:08.320 ideology is

00:28:09.720 resulting in

00:28:11.100 misogyny.

00:28:12.040 it is saying

00:28:12.880 you, a

00:28:14.060 young

00:28:15.160 immigrant

00:28:16.340 woman of

00:28:17.880 color, we

00:28:19.860 will destroy

00:28:21.120 your reputation

00:28:22.000 and take away

00:28:22.740 your job if

00:28:24.080 you don't

00:28:24.740 refuse, if

00:28:25.800 you don't

00:28:26.300 wear a

00:28:27.840 foreign

00:28:29.140 religious symbol

00:28:30.200 of women's

00:28:30.780 oppression.

00:28:32.000 Think about how

00:28:32.660 crazy that is.

00:28:33.740 This is all in

00:28:34.400 the name of

00:28:35.380 wokeness.

00:28:36.360 Here she is

00:28:36.960 describing what

00:28:38.180 happened.

00:28:39.200 There's a

00:28:39.580 try a hijab 0.70

00:28:40.580 on booth at

00:28:41.460 my college

00:28:41.880 campus, so

00:28:42.720 you're telling

00:28:43.200 me that it's

00:28:43.700 now just a

00:28:44.300 fashion accessory

00:28:45.020 and not a

00:28:45.440 religious thing,

00:28:46.260 or are you

00:28:46.940 just trying to

00:28:47.560 get women used 1.00

00:28:48.480 to being

00:28:48.780 oppressed under

00:28:49.640 Islam? 0.87

00:28:51.380 Again?

00:28:52.080 What would you

00:28:53.820 like to say

00:28:54.120 about that?

00:28:54.600 You don't see

00:28:55.040 how that could

00:28:55.480 be offensive?

00:28:56.900 Not at all.

00:28:57.900 They were, you

00:28:58.520 know, I went

00:28:59.040 past the booth,

00:28:59.980 I was late for

00:29:00.440 class already,

00:29:01.320 they were saying

00:29:01.720 do you want to

00:29:01.960 put on a hijab, 0.98

00:29:02.720 putting it over

00:29:03.800 me?

00:29:04.060 I said no, I

00:29:04.960 don't want to, I

00:29:05.460 declined wearing

00:29:06.400 this garment.

00:29:08.360 I think that it's

00:29:09.360 really rude, I

00:29:10.740 feel like, to

00:29:11.460 Muslims too, that

00:29:12.820 to wear their

00:29:13.600 sacred garment on

00:29:14.560 someone who isn't

00:29:15.320 a Muslim

00:29:15.740 themselves.

00:29:16.940 I wouldn't want

00:29:18.100 to put a

00:29:18.860 Catholic rosary on

00:29:19.700 someone if they

00:29:20.160 aren't Catholic.

00:29:21.000 Right, but that's

00:29:21.640 not what you

00:29:22.300 said.

00:29:22.640 What you said, it

00:29:23.320 wasn't that you

00:29:24.080 felt badly for

00:29:25.320 them that you

00:29:27.100 weren't Muslim,

00:29:28.260 it's that you

00:29:28.760 said, or you're

00:29:29.540 just trying to

00:29:30.080 get women used 1.00

00:29:30.900 to being oppressed

00:29:31.680 under Islam.

00:29:32.280 Yes, there are

00:29:32.780 so many women in 1.00

00:29:34.500 Muslim countries

00:29:35.160 right now who are

00:29:35.840 being stoned to

00:29:36.480 death because they

00:29:37.000 don't want to wear

00:29:38.120 a hijab due to 0.88

00:29:38.900 their husband's

00:29:39.900 requirement to

00:29:40.820 do so.

00:29:41.460 And I think that

00:29:41.820 we should be

00:29:42.100 focusing on that

00:29:42.860 way more than the

00:29:44.320 Western things about

00:29:45.460 Muslim because there

00:29:46.660 are so many bad

00:29:47.580 things happening in

00:29:48.500 Muslim countries

00:29:48.940 because of these

00:29:49.900 women and these 1.00

00:29:51.620 women are being 1.00

00:29:52.340 crucified for not

00:29:53.440 wearing a hijab.

00:29:54.840 And I think that's

00:29:55.400 really, really awful.

00:29:57.480 The hijab is used

00:29:59.080 as a tool of

00:29:59.860 women's oppression 0.99

00:30:00.500 all around the

00:30:01.140 world.

00:30:01.380 She's completely

00:30:01.980 correct and this

00:30:02.840 woman on CNN

00:30:03.760 can't believe it.

00:30:04.920 She's shaming her 1.00

00:30:06.260 for refusing to

00:30:07.400 wear the hijab,

00:30:08.780 a symbol of a

00:30:09.440 foreign religion

00:30:10.080 in which she

00:30:10.540 doesn't believe

00:30:11.040 used to put down

00:30:11.860 women. 0.81

00:30:12.880 We'll get to how

00:30:14.040 this all comes

00:30:15.200 together.

00:30:15.780 I mean, what this

00:30:16.300 really leads to in

00:30:17.260 a very practical

00:30:17.960 political way is the

00:30:19.820 left, which has led

00:30:20.820 Me Too now for

00:30:22.860 how many years,

00:30:24.740 is now coming back

00:30:25.700 around and trying to

00:30:26.800 vindicate, trying to

00:30:28.540 exonerate leftist

00:30:30.120 politicians who got

00:30:31.120 caught up in the

00:30:31.880 Me Too scandal.

00:30:32.740 Shows it for just the

00:30:34.100 absolute hack

00:30:35.600 ideology that it is.

00:30:36.720 We'll get to that

00:30:37.140 in a second, then

00:30:37.860 we'll get to the

00:30:38.300 best new piece of

00:30:39.080 merch of the 2020

00:30:40.200 campaign.

00:30:41.000 We'll get to AOC

00:30:42.180 endorsing open

00:30:42.980 borders.

00:30:43.380 We'll get to

00:30:43.720 everything, but

00:30:44.220 first, next month

00:30:45.520 we are taking our

00:30:46.720 backstage live show

00:30:47.680 on the road for a

00:31:30.860 We did a couple last

00:31:36.580 that we met at that.

00:31:37.300 It is a great way to

00:32:37.980 Head over to

00:32:38.340 dailywire.com.

00:32:39.140 We'll be right back.

00:32:50.320 So, Miss Michigan

00:32:53.020 refuses to wear this

00:32:54.340 hijab.

00:32:55.960 She says it's a tool of

00:32:58.360 women's oppression. 1.00

00:32:59.580 CNN mocks her for it. 1.00

00:33:01.060 They smear her as some 0.99

00:33:02.100 kind of bigot for it.

00:33:03.940 They don't believe her.

00:33:05.040 They won't accept it.

00:33:05.880 Just as a point of fact,

00:33:09.460 women within the last 0.97

00:33:10.920 couple of years have been

00:33:12.300 lashed in Saudi Arabia for

00:33:14.920 refusing to wear not just

00:33:16.000 the hijab, but the entire 0.95

00:33:17.840 abaya, that entire body

00:33:19.380 cover.

00:33:19.660 They've been lashed publicly

00:33:21.100 for it.

00:33:22.360 Last year, just in 2018,

00:33:24.580 dozens of women in Iran 0.93

00:33:27.100 were arrested for not

00:33:29.140 wearing the hijab in just 0.99

00:33:30.340 one roundup.

00:33:31.400 How many other women have 1.00

00:33:32.260 been arrested for it?

00:33:34.100 I'm not against head

00:33:35.340 coverings in general.

00:33:36.760 I actually kind of like

00:33:37.860 them.

00:33:38.160 You know, there's the image

00:33:39.520 of Baptist women wearing

00:33:40.940 gigantic hats to church.

00:33:43.540 The Catholics have 1.00

00:33:44.360 mantillas.

00:33:44.920 I always love a nice mantilla,

00:33:46.500 good veiled head covering.

00:33:48.100 I'm not opposed to that.

00:33:49.600 What I'm opposed to is

00:33:51.000 lashing and stoning women 1.00

00:33:52.980 for not covering their

00:33:54.040 heads in public.

00:33:55.220 I think that's bad.

00:33:57.440 And that is what Miss

00:33:59.300 Michigan is objecting to.

00:34:01.100 And that's just too much

00:34:02.680 for CNN.

00:34:04.400 Because when it comes down

00:34:05.760 to it, when it comes down

00:34:06.800 to the wokeness of

00:34:07.740 supporting feminism and the 1.00

00:34:09.360 wokeness of supporting

00:34:10.520 Islam, I mean, that's the

00:34:13.080 new fashion.

00:34:14.920 The left is going to

00:34:15.740 side with Islam.

00:34:17.680 They're always moving the

00:34:19.080 goalpost, aren't they?

00:34:20.060 They're always chasing

00:34:22.080 some new victim group,

00:34:23.320 even if it means they have

00:34:24.040 to throw the old victim

00:34:25.020 group under the bus.

00:34:26.760 We'll examine why.

00:34:27.860 We'll see why in just one

00:34:28.840 second.

00:34:29.160 But first, the most

00:34:29.800 egregious story on this

00:34:30.900 front is about Al Franken.

00:34:33.000 Remember Al Franken?

00:34:34.400 Stuart Smalley from SNL.

00:34:36.780 He was a cast member on

00:34:37.800 SNL and then somehow he got

00:34:39.200 himself elected to the

00:34:40.060 Senate from Minnesota.

00:34:41.160 And then in the tumult of

00:34:43.560 the Me Too era, he got

00:34:44.900 thrown out because he

00:34:45.820 apparently squeezed a

00:34:47.180 couple women on the 0.87

00:34:47.900 derriere on campaign

00:34:49.220 stops.

00:34:49.780 Actually, more than a

00:34:50.600 couple women, according 1.00

00:34:51.280 to the accusations.

00:34:52.820 And he got thrown out

00:34:54.400 for that.

00:34:55.620 Now, one of the leaders

00:34:57.800 of the Me Too witch 0.81

00:34:58.880 hunts, a woman named

00:35:00.020 Jane Meyer, who would 0.96

00:35:01.800 write with Ronan Farrow

00:35:02.880 in The New Yorker, she

00:35:04.520 has come out in The New

00:35:05.860 Yorker to defend Al

00:35:08.360 Franken, to try to

00:35:09.260 exonerate Al Franken.

00:35:10.680 You might remember that

00:35:11.660 name, Jane Meyer, as one

00:35:13.120 of the most egregious

00:35:14.720 smear merchants against

00:35:16.340 Brett Kavanaugh during

00:35:17.740 his Supreme Court

00:35:18.500 confirmation hearings.

00:35:19.460 Here is Jane Meyer, who

00:35:21.560 came up with a completely

00:35:23.320 uncorroborated story about

00:35:25.340 Brett Kavanaugh exposing

00:35:26.660 himself one time in a

00:35:28.860 dorm room at Yale at some

00:35:30.420 party.

00:35:31.540 And no evidence of this

00:35:33.440 whatsoever, no corroboration

00:35:35.300 whatsoever.

00:35:35.940 They publish it in The New

00:35:36.700 Yorker.

00:35:37.300 It was criticized by some

00:35:38.860 of us at the time.

00:35:39.980 And she goes on TV and

00:35:41.060 says, no problem

00:35:41.760 whatsoever.

00:35:42.760 The New Yorker admits

00:35:44.120 that they were unable to

00:35:45.660 confirm with other

00:35:47.260 eyewitnesses that Kavanaugh

00:35:48.460 was even present at this

00:35:49.740 party.

00:35:50.240 Why did you print this

00:35:51.200 story?

00:35:52.480 We've got a woman who was

00:35:54.960 a classmate of his at Yale

00:35:56.520 who went on the record to

00:35:58.760 describe her own experience

00:36:00.560 here.

00:36:01.360 And when we started to do

00:36:03.280 more reporting on it, we

00:36:05.080 found another classmate who

00:36:08.440 remembers hearing about it

00:36:09.760 that night or the next day.

00:36:11.820 Oh, so the only

00:36:13.200 corroborating witness, I

00:36:16.100 can't even call him a

00:36:16.760 witness, he's not a

00:36:17.480 witness.

00:36:17.920 The only person that sort

00:36:20.300 of tries to corroborate

00:36:21.480 this is someone who heard

00:36:23.380 about it secondhand.

00:36:25.540 So she's getting it third

00:36:26.620 hand.

00:36:28.440 Complete nonsense.

00:36:30.100 She had heard rumors about

00:36:31.360 Brett Kavanaugh and

00:36:32.180 breathlessly reported it in

00:36:33.820 The New Yorker with no

00:36:34.780 proof whatsoever.

00:36:36.280 Didn't even have the

00:36:37.180 accounts, just hearsay.

00:36:38.120 Now she's defending Al

00:36:39.380 Franken.

00:36:39.900 In a new piece, it's about

00:36:41.040 seven zillion words long.

00:36:42.700 I mean, she clearly took

00:36:43.400 her time on this.

00:36:44.280 The case of Al Franken, a

00:36:45.760 close look at the

00:36:46.420 accusations against the

00:36:47.360 former senator.

00:36:48.720 She writes, quote,

00:36:49.960 Franken's fall was

00:36:51.040 stunningly swift.

00:36:52.520 He resigned only three

00:36:53.620 weeks after Leanne

00:36:54.640 Tweeden, a conservative

00:36:55.980 talk radio host, accused

00:36:57.980 him of having forced an

00:36:59.660 unwanted kiss on her during 0.96

00:37:01.500 a 2006 USO tour.

00:37:03.620 Seven more women followed 1.00

00:37:04.920 with accusations against

00:37:06.060 Franken.

00:37:06.420 All of them centered on

00:37:07.900 inappropriate touches or

00:37:09.180 kisses.

00:37:09.980 Half the accusers' names

00:37:11.060 still haven't become

00:37:12.000 public.

00:37:13.040 Although both Franken and

00:37:14.140 Tweeden called for an

00:37:14.940 independent investigation

00:37:15.820 into her charges, none

00:37:17.540 took place.

00:37:18.260 The implication, obviously,

00:37:19.320 is that the women are 1.00

00:37:20.220 lying.

00:37:20.580 That's why they won't come

00:37:21.380 forward.

00:37:22.180 And Leanne Tweeden is 0.87

00:37:23.000 lying because she's a 1.00

00:37:24.340 conservative talk show

00:37:25.220 host.

00:37:26.040 Really rich coming from the

00:37:28.080 woman who smeared Brett 1.00

00:37:29.020 Kavanaugh.

00:37:30.360 I'm not saying that Al

00:37:32.580 Franken should have

00:37:33.160 resigned or that the

00:37:33.940 accusations against him

00:37:34.880 are true.

00:37:36.160 There is infinitely more

00:37:37.940 evidence against Al

00:37:40.520 Franken than there was

00:37:41.520 against Brett Kavanaugh.

00:37:42.520 There was nothing against

00:37:43.400 Brett Kavanaugh.

00:37:44.740 Some crazy woman said that 1.00

00:37:47.200 he pushed her into a room 0.99

00:37:48.480 30 years ago and she

00:37:49.520 changed her story five

00:37:50.580 times and demonstrably

00:37:54.820 lied to the Senate.

00:37:58.960 And that's it.

00:37:59.860 And then some other crazy

00:38:00.700 woman came out of the 1.00

00:38:01.440 woodwork and then she was

00:38:02.520 represented by Michael

00:38:03.820 Avenatti.

00:38:04.300 She was completely

00:38:05.000 disproven so they tried to

00:38:06.720 shut her up quickly. 1.00

00:38:07.840 Then some other woman from 0.95

00:38:09.000 Yale came out and said,

00:38:10.300 what?

00:38:10.540 I mean, you know, there was

00:38:11.580 no corroboration, no

00:38:12.480 witnesses, nobody could tell

00:38:14.000 you anything about that

00:38:15.100 other than Jane Meyer

00:38:16.920 hearing it third hand.

00:38:20.220 You know, Jane Meyer talks

00:38:21.640 about how the main accuser

00:38:23.080 against Al Franken was a

00:38:25.840 conservative talk show

00:38:28.120 host.

00:38:28.420 The main accuser against

00:38:30.320 Brett Kavanaugh was a far

00:38:32.220 left wing activist who

00:38:34.140 shut down all of her social 0.64

00:38:35.780 media pages because she was 1.00

00:38:37.120 constantly posting about how

00:38:38.300 much she hated Donald Trump

00:38:39.340 and hated conservatives.

00:38:41.260 And that information was

00:38:42.300 suppressed during the

00:38:43.200 Kavanaugh debacle.

00:38:44.720 Really, really rich.

00:38:46.520 But she actually doesn't even 0.99

00:38:47.520 evade the Kavanaugh

00:38:48.260 comparisons.

00:38:49.140 Jane Meyer, the hack that she 0.99

00:38:50.900 is, goes right for them.

00:38:52.200 Quote, the lawyer Deborah

00:38:53.680 Katz, who has represented

00:38:55.100 Christine Blasey Ford and

00:38:56.220 other sexual harassment

00:38:57.120 victims, remains troubled

00:38:58.620 by Franken's case.

00:38:59.920 She contends the allegations

00:39:01.120 leveled against Senator

00:39:02.000 Franken did not warrant his

00:39:03.660 forced expulsion from the

00:39:05.080 Senate, particularly given

00:39:06.440 the context in which most

00:39:08.000 of the behavior occurred,

00:39:09.240 which was in his capacity

00:39:10.460 as a comedian.

00:39:11.440 Oh my gosh.

00:39:12.740 She adds, all offensive

00:39:14.380 behavior should be addressed,

00:39:15.620 but not all offensive behavior

00:39:16.760 warrants the most severe

00:39:18.220 sanction.

00:39:19.740 Katz sees Franken as a

00:39:20.780 cautionary tale for the

00:39:21.660 Me Too movement.

00:39:22.620 To treat all allegations the

00:39:23.980 same is not only

00:39:24.740 inappropriate, it feeds into

00:39:26.360 a backlash narrative that

00:39:27.520 men are vulnerable to even

00:39:28.900 frivolous allegations by

00:39:30.380 women, says the expert in

00:39:33.700 frivolous allegations by

00:39:35.980 women, Deborah Katz.

00:39:37.880 Absolutely outrageous.

00:39:39.940 In the case of Al Franken,

00:39:41.300 there is a photograph of him

00:39:43.300 posing about to grope a

00:39:45.580 sleeping service member.

00:39:49.420 None of that with Brett Kavanaugh.

00:39:51.860 But, but they're hacks.

00:39:53.380 I mean, Franken was forced out.

00:39:54.520 Why was he forced out?

00:39:55.500 Because he was replaceable in

00:39:56.860 Minnesota, Democratic governor.

00:39:58.680 They knew they could replace

00:39:59.420 him with a Democrat.

00:40:01.000 Forced out by Kirsten

00:40:01.800 Gillibrand.

00:40:02.640 She thought she could make

00:40:03.360 her political bones on it.

00:40:05.200 Only he knows what he did.

00:40:06.600 If he really was groping women

00:40:07.940 at every campaign stop,

00:40:09.200 he should leave the Senate.

00:40:11.160 But maybe the allegations

00:40:12.260 weren't true.

00:40:12.940 I don't know.

00:40:13.480 We're in this Me Too madness

00:40:14.820 moment.

00:40:15.920 And, you know, there are

00:40:17.080 plenty of false accusations.

00:40:19.740 It seems reasonable for him to

00:40:21.300 have waited it out if he could

00:40:22.960 have weathered it politically.

00:40:24.340 But it's not reasonable for him

00:40:25.640 to have waited it out when

00:40:27.200 you've got absolute circuses

00:40:30.020 like the Brett Kavanaugh hearings.

00:40:32.140 It's not reasonable to let

00:40:33.540 Franken off the hook when the

00:40:35.420 left is weaponizing sexual

00:40:37.340 assault charges against men.

00:40:40.200 Not to the benefit of women, 1.00

00:40:41.540 just to railroad their own

00:40:43.540 political opponents.

00:40:44.540 This is misogyny.

00:40:45.900 The left is all for women's 1.00

00:40:47.120 rights unless a Muslim man 1.00

00:40:48.560 objects.

00:40:48.900 The left is all for women's 1.00

00:40:50.400 rights unless a man in a dress 1.00

00:40:52.060 objects.

00:40:52.940 The left is all for women's 1.00

00:40:54.040 rights unless a male 1.00

00:40:55.260 democratic politician

00:40:56.540 objects.

00:40:57.720 And like on so many issues,

00:40:59.440 what is this about?

00:41:00.560 It shows that the left

00:41:02.100 doesn't care about women at 0.99

00:41:03.300 all.

00:41:03.880 They don't care about their 0.90

00:41:04.840 nominal victim classes at

00:41:06.920 all.

00:41:08.500 Particularly with gender

00:41:09.640 ideology, they seem to hold

00:41:10.740 women in contempt. 0.99

00:41:13.360 More broadly, what the left

00:41:14.800 does is they use victim

00:41:17.320 groups.

00:41:17.740 In many cases, they create

00:41:18.840 victim groups to divide,

00:41:20.520 to lie emotionally, to lie

00:41:23.220 and emotionally manipulate

00:41:24.340 them into voting for them,

00:41:27.160 into their political

00:41:27.980 purposes.

00:41:28.840 And then when another shiny

00:41:29.760 object comes along, they

00:41:30.920 ditch the previous victim

00:41:32.040 group.

00:41:32.640 I don't use the phrase

00:41:33.600 misogyny lightly, but this

00:41:34.840 is contempt and disdain for

00:41:36.940 womanhood, for women, and for

00:41:38.360 the feminine.

00:41:39.720 Conservatives have a unique

00:41:40.660 opportunity to speak out on

00:41:42.280 this.

00:41:43.160 The way to speak about it, by

00:41:44.760 the way, is to speak from the

00:41:46.000 perspective of beauty, of love

00:41:48.020 for women, not from the

00:41:50.020 necessarily from rights or

00:41:51.880 some political doctrine, but

00:41:52.980 from beauty.

00:41:53.720 You know, conservatives have

00:41:54.520 an advantage when it comes to

00:41:56.700 speaking about beauty on the

00:41:57.960 left, because the left is this

00:41:59.320 rationalistic, cold, clinical,

00:42:01.940 materialistic cult of politics.

00:42:05.840 Conservatives are romantics,

00:42:07.780 basically.

00:42:08.300 We see the beauty and complexity

00:42:09.640 of the world, and we like it.

00:42:10.860 We like the diversity of the

00:42:11.880 world.

00:42:12.660 Edmund Burke, the great founder of

00:42:15.100 modern conservatism, he was an

00:42:17.120 aesthetic philosopher, too.

00:42:19.500 Not an esthetician, though, and

00:42:20.700 he never had to wax any dudes in

00:42:22.000 a dress.

00:42:23.660 Conservatives get beauty better

00:42:24.880 than the left, and I think we

00:42:25.820 can convince people with a

00:42:26.860 little bit of joy, and by

00:42:28.000 showing them the beauty of this

00:42:29.700 world, instead of this crazy,

00:42:31.120 scolding nonsense.

00:42:32.300 You know, the left is imploding

00:42:33.800 on this.

00:42:34.600 They are embracing the least

00:42:36.180 popular ideas in the country,

00:42:38.540 and they are just trying to

00:42:40.920 shame people and cower people

00:42:44.060 into voting for them out of

00:42:45.560 fear.

00:42:45.760 Here's AOC at a campaign event

00:42:47.320 of hers, embracing

00:42:48.420 completely open borders.

00:42:51.220 I think migration, to me,

00:42:55.480 is liberation.

00:42:58.900 It's the ability to move and be.

00:43:03.060 It's the freedom to be, really,

00:43:05.100 is what we're talking about.

00:43:06.580 And I think that all people

00:43:08.480 should be free to be here,

00:43:10.820 and in our communities.

00:43:13.480 Because I think that when you

00:43:15.700 start viewing human beings as

00:43:17.920 intrinsically valuable, you feel

00:43:20.480 blessed that they have come to

00:43:22.320 you with their presence.

00:43:24.140 And that's really, I think, the

00:43:26.580 shift that we need to make as a

00:43:28.160 country.

00:43:28.660 It's the shift to free to be.

00:43:30.480 She's like a, like Dr. Seuss

00:43:33.000 without the talent.

00:43:34.540 We're free to be, to be, to me,

00:43:37.180 to cross into the border illegally.

00:43:40.160 But we're not going to make it

00:43:41.460 illegal.

00:43:41.920 We're going to completely

00:43:43.220 decriminalize border crossings.

00:43:45.520 This is very unpopular.

00:43:47.320 President Trump knows this.

00:43:48.740 He knows how unpopular this is.

00:43:50.420 At the last debate, every single

00:43:51.960 candidate on that democratic stage

00:43:53.460 endorsed free health care for

00:43:55.680 illegal aliens.

00:43:56.560 All their hands go up.

00:43:58.140 Raise your hand if your government

00:43:59.880 plan would provide coverage for

00:44:01.580 undocumented immigrants.

00:44:02.720 Okay, let me start with you,

00:44:08.540 Mayor Buttigieg, why?

00:44:11.360 Mayor Buttigieg, why?

00:44:13.360 Because our country is healthier

00:44:16.180 when everybody is healthier.

00:44:18.560 Okay, all right.

00:44:19.680 Every hand goes up.

00:44:21.340 Everyone.

00:44:21.760 Do you know how popular that

00:44:22.660 proposal is?

00:44:24.240 There's a new poll out right now

00:44:25.400 from NPR, PBS NewsHour, and

00:44:27.200 Marist, which shows that just 33%

00:44:29.880 support health care for illegal

00:44:31.100 laylands of all Americans.

00:44:33.740 Reparations, which is another

00:44:35.000 policy the Democrats are almost

00:44:37.060 universally endorsing.

00:44:38.540 Just 27% of Americans support

00:44:40.840 that.

00:44:42.120 How many people do you think

00:44:43.080 support making immigrant women

00:44:44.560 wax salon workers, wax the male 1.00

00:44:48.820 genitals? 0.98

00:44:50.720 How many people do you think

00:44:51.720 support that?

00:44:52.380 Like two people in the whole

00:44:53.380 world?

00:44:53.880 How many people do you think

00:44:54.820 support taking scholarships away

00:44:56.560 from high school girls because

00:44:58.620 they're going to force them to

00:45:00.900 compete against men in track?

00:45:02.660 How many people do you think

00:45:03.680 support taking away Miss World

00:45:05.640 USA's, Miss Michigan's crown

00:45:08.640 because she refuses to submit to

00:45:11.600 the hijab?

00:45:13.240 Like two, this is the least popular

00:45:14.840 stuff on earth and Trump knows

00:45:16.480 this.

00:45:17.600 I remember he did this during the

00:45:19.040 campaign in 2016.

00:45:20.760 They were trying to cower him into

00:45:22.060 saying, to not using the word

00:45:24.040 anchor baby.

00:45:24.880 And they said, that word's

00:45:25.520 offensive.

00:45:26.340 And Trump said, what do you want

00:45:27.680 me to use?

00:45:28.520 And the guy, he said, oh, you

00:45:29.860 know, future American dreamer,

00:45:31.980 undocumented dreaming.

00:45:33.460 Trump looks at him like he's

00:45:34.420 stupid and he says, you know, I 0.82

00:45:35.580 think I'm going to stick with

00:45:36.320 anchor baby.

00:45:37.180 And people react to that.

00:45:38.940 And he's back.

00:45:39.600 The best piece of merch in 2020,

00:45:41.960 Trump is now selling plastic

00:45:44.780 straws on his website because I

00:45:46.940 don't know about where you live,

00:45:47.860 but where I live here on the left

00:45:49.200 coast, it's now illegal.

00:45:51.380 You can't have straws.

00:45:52.420 You can only have those paper

00:45:53.640 straws that turn into goop within

00:45:55.600 two seconds of whatever you're

00:45:56.760 drinking and they don't work.

00:45:58.120 President Trump is now selling

00:45:59.380 Trump straws, pack of 10.

00:46:01.220 And here's the description.

00:46:02.560 Liberal paper straws don't work. 1.00

00:46:04.900 Stand with President Trump, buy

00:46:06.040 your pack of recyclable straws

00:46:07.680 today.

00:46:08.000 This is brilliant.

00:46:09.580 Same with the pronouns.

00:46:10.760 It's an apparently trivial thing,

00:46:12.360 but it actually stands for so much.

00:46:14.860 It is so much in the way of

00:46:16.780 premises.

00:46:17.840 And this is what I think people

00:46:21.640 are reacting to.

00:46:22.480 I mean, this is what I suspect

00:46:23.340 people are reacting to.

00:46:25.600 What kind of government tells you

00:46:29.120 what straws you're allowed to

00:46:32.340 drink your coffee out of or your

00:46:34.560 Coca-Cola?

00:46:35.600 What kind of overbearing government,

00:46:38.740 what kind of absurd government

00:46:40.720 thinks that plastic straws are the

00:46:43.300 biggest problem in the world worth

00:46:45.340 the strength of the state and

00:46:47.740 suppressing people's freedom?

00:46:49.760 What kind of sick government goes in

00:46:52.640 and forces immigrant women to fondle 0.99

00:46:55.380 men's genitals because the men say so? 1.00

00:46:58.420 What kind of sick government does that? 1.00

00:47:02.320 What kind of sick government comes in

00:47:04.140 and says, open borders, anybody can come in.

00:47:06.580 I don't care what you people think.

00:47:07.780 I don't care what you people want.

00:47:09.480 That's this fantasy, this leftist fantasy,

00:47:12.880 which is now, ironically, the left

00:47:14.620 prattles on about the war on women.

00:47:16.060 The left has become misogynistic because

00:47:18.280 they ditch their old victim groups.

00:47:19.660 They just move on and embrace further

00:47:22.140 fantasy after fantasy after fantasy.

00:47:24.800 What President Trump is doing is he's

00:47:27.040 not campaigning on some broad health

00:47:29.640 care proposal.

00:47:30.340 He's not campaigning on some really

00:47:32.180 specific tax proposal that all the

00:47:34.640 wonks at all the think tanks have

00:47:36.900 passed approval on.

00:47:40.220 He's campaigning on, hey,

00:47:43.420 immigrant women shouldn't have to wax 1.00

00:47:45.560 men's genitals. 0.93

00:47:46.660 Hey, you should be able to drink your

00:47:48.540 Coca-Cola out of a straw.

00:47:50.980 Hey, we should be able to have borders

00:47:53.180 because this is a country.

00:47:54.080 He's campaigning on the most basic

00:47:55.660 elements, the most basic intuitions of

00:47:59.620 a people in a free, self-governing

00:48:01.540 society.

00:48:02.760 But in this bizarro fantasy land of

00:48:05.460 extreme leftism, none of that is

00:48:07.820 permitted anymore.

00:48:09.020 And so when President Trump says very

00:48:10.940 basic things such as that, it's deemed

00:48:12.920 politically incorrect.

00:48:14.020 And I think he's got his finger on the

00:48:16.980 pulse of the people in this way.

00:48:18.120 The only question is, can he keep his

00:48:19.520 foot out of his mouth long enough to

00:48:21.300 not offend those who might be able to

00:48:23.260 come over and be his allies?

00:48:25.520 Because the way that conservatives are

00:48:27.340 going to win is not by talking in some

00:48:29.840 highly technical egghead kind of terms.

00:48:32.240 It's going to be by talking about basic

00:48:33.500 things.

00:48:34.480 Goodness, truth, beauty.

00:48:36.660 Those basic intuitions and longings we

00:48:38.740 have.

00:48:39.180 Right now we're doing it well.

00:48:41.060 And if the Democratic primary debates are

00:48:43.860 any indication, I think we're going to keep

00:48:45.460 doing it well going into 2020.

00:48:46.980 But we'll have to see all more tomorrow.

00:48:48.960 In the meantime, I'm headed to D.C.

00:48:50.800 I'll be speaking at TPUSA and I'll be

00:48:53.060 speaking at YAF and I'll be hanging around

00:48:54.620 the Capitol.

00:48:55.180 So come say hey if I see you around there.
