00:00:30.540 President Trump scoops up $15 million in California.

00:00:35.360 We examine how the bluest of blue states

00:00:37.340 can help the president win in 2020.

00:00:39.760 Then, meanwhile, Democrats take their cues

00:00:41.980 on global affairs from a Swedish teenager

00:00:44.400 as 16-year-old environmental activist

00:00:46.780 Greta Thunberg testifies before Congress.

00:00:50.080 We get some good news on abortion, 1.00

00:00:51.700 bad news on criminal justice,

00:00:53.300 and an embarrassing report

00:00:55.080 on the gratuity habits of millennials.

00:00:57.500 All that and more, I'm Michael Knowles,

00:00:59.220 and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:07.860 I'm so sorry to say

00:01:10.040 that I missed the Trump fundraiser in Beverly Hills.

00:01:13.940 I could have seen every single conservative,

00:01:16.160 probably in the state of California,

00:01:17.600 you can fit them just about into one room.

00:01:19.840 He was there doing a whole swing

00:01:21.580 through California the past couple days,

00:01:23.140 and he raised a lot of money,

00:01:24.940 which is having some people on the left

00:01:26.340 scratch their heads.

00:01:27.560 How's he about to bring in all that money

00:01:28.840 in a state that overwhelmingly voted for Hillary Clinton?

00:01:32.080 We'll get into the numbers

00:01:33.060 because California has always played

00:01:35.560 an important role in the conservative movement,

00:01:37.660 and I think California could play a major role

00:01:40.100 in President Trump's re-election hopes in 2020.

00:01:43.180 But first, I've got to talk about Raycon.

00:01:45.960 I love Raycon.

00:01:47.800 Raycon earbuds start at about half the price

00:01:50.980 of any other premium wireless earbuds on the market.

00:01:54.940 Not going to name names,

00:01:56.080 but you know the ones that I'm talking about.

00:01:57.780 And Raycon earbuds sound just as good.

00:02:01.240 Raycon's E50 wireless earbuds

00:02:02.920 have completely changed the game.

00:02:05.680 The reason is other premium wireless earbuds,

00:02:07.980 they're not that comfortable,

00:02:09.060 and they've got weird stuff sticking out,

00:02:10.240 and they don't always fit in your ear that well,

00:02:11.580 and they just want to have

00:02:12.320 a one-size-fits-all overpriced solution for everybody.

00:02:15.220 Then you get those really super-duper cheapo earbuds,

00:02:17.700 and they don't work, and they don't hold a charge,

00:02:19.300 and you can barely hear what you're trying to listen to.

00:02:21.340 Raycon hits the sweet spot.

00:02:22.860 They're super comfortable.

00:02:24.040 They're easy to take anywhere.

00:02:25.680 They are stylish.

00:02:26.900 They are discreet.

00:02:27.800 They're not, like, jumping out at you.

00:02:29.260 There are no dangling wires or stems.

00:02:32.060 Of course, they don't just look great.

00:02:33.400 They sound great, too.

00:02:34.180 Raycon offers their wireless earbuds

00:02:35.780 for everyone in a range of fun colors,

00:02:38.420 not just one, and they've got an unbeatable price.

00:02:40.440 They're really terrific.

00:03:02.080 now is the time to get a great deal.

00:03:04.060 Buyraycon.com slash Knowles.

00:03:07.300 Speaking of great deals,

00:03:09.980 President Trump got a great deal

00:03:11.320 on his two- or three-day swing through California.

00:03:14.300 He was just in Beverly Hills,

00:03:15.940 and I think the total he's taking out of that state

00:03:18.300 is 15 million bucks.

00:03:22.420 The big takeaway here for the left,

00:03:25.140 for the chattering class,

00:03:26.920 is that 15 million bucks didn't come from nowhere.

00:03:30.180 We talk about California as though it's just monolithic,

00:03:33.780 completely leftist.

00:03:34.920 There isn't a conservative anywhere.

00:03:36.220 I mean, I make jokes about it too, but there are.

00:03:38.620 I mean, we used to have a group out in Los Angeles

00:03:41.020 called Friends of Abe.

00:03:42.800 And Friends of Abe was Friends of Abraham Lincoln.

00:03:45.460 It was all the secret conservatives in Hollywood.

00:03:48.020 There were a lot of us.

00:03:50.000 The Obama administration tried to get our list

00:03:52.360 of our members.

00:03:53.460 Everyone wanted to know who they were

00:03:54.840 because if you asked anybody in the industry,

00:03:57.020 they'd say,

00:03:57.320 I don't know any conservatives out here.

00:03:58.660 I don't meet any conservatives in Hollywood.

00:04:00.520 And yet there were a lot.

00:04:01.680 They just were afraid of speaking up

00:04:03.220 because the left is so vindictive in California.

00:04:06.760 And I suppose this is what we mean by the phrase,

00:04:10.120 the silent majority.

00:04:11.960 Republicans, conservatives have been relying

00:04:13.480 on that silent majority since Nixon,

00:04:15.900 since Reagan, and all the way up through Trump.

00:04:18.740 There are different names for them.

00:04:19.740 The forgotten Americans,

00:04:21.060 the great men and women of the middle of the country,

00:04:22.820 whatever.

00:04:23.540 They're out there.

00:04:24.220 They're even all the way in California.

00:04:25.940 I think what Trump is seeing here is

00:04:29.180 he doesn't need to win California

00:04:31.820 for California to help him win in 2020.

00:04:35.380 You know, it's true that Hillary Clinton

00:04:36.840 won California in a landslide.

00:04:39.920 Trump got four and a half million votes there.

00:04:42.720 Four and a half million people voted

00:04:44.060 for President Trump in 2016.

00:04:45.860 That was the harder election to vote for Trump

00:04:47.980 because we didn't know what he was going to do.

00:04:49.900 We didn't know how he was going to behave.

00:04:51.720 He's exceeded pretty much everybody's expectations.

00:04:54.040 We were told the economy was going to collapse.

00:04:56.680 We were told we were going to go to World War III.

00:04:58.300 We were told all the terrible things would happen

00:04:59.740 if Trump got elected.

00:05:00.920 Instead, pretty much everything's improved.

00:05:03.120 The economy's great.

00:05:04.060 We have record low unemployment,

00:05:05.260 relative peace abroad,

00:05:06.400 renegotiated trade deals.

00:05:07.860 Things are looking pretty good.

00:05:09.160 How many votes is he going to get in 2020?

00:05:10.760 Enough to win?

00:05:12.140 Almost certainly not.

00:05:13.340 But it could galvanize some support for him.

00:05:16.600 Four and a half million votes in 2016.

00:05:18.120 He also raised $333 million in California in 2016.

00:05:22.720 That's a lot of money.

00:05:24.720 What this tells you is there are Trump supporters

00:05:27.420 in California.

00:05:29.060 I know probably most of them personally,

00:05:31.040 but there actually are.

00:05:33.100 And this isn't even a left-right thing.

00:05:36.760 Trump made a central pillar of his fundraising swing

00:05:40.180 through California, how the cities are deteriorating,

00:05:42.980 Los Angeles and San Francisco.

00:05:44.700 I live in L.A.

00:05:46.160 L.A. is falling apart.

00:05:47.960 Homelessness is up 16% in just one year in L.A.

00:05:51.140 San Francisco is falling apart.

00:05:53.200 There's drugs all over the street.

00:05:54.460 They're decriminalizing homeless behaviors there as well.

00:05:57.780 There's public defecation on the street in San Francisco.

00:06:00.880 You don't need to be some rock-ribbed Reaganite Republican

00:06:03.680 to say this isn't good.

00:06:05.780 Maybe we don't want this.

00:06:06.760 Maybe we want the state to move in another direction. 0.58

00:06:10.900 So I think Trump is very smart to bring this up,

00:06:14.300 to talk about this.

00:06:15.060 I mean, he was talking about L.A. homelessness.

00:06:16.540 Obviously, the president of the United States

00:06:17.940 is probably not going to fix a municipal problem

00:06:19.900 like L.A. homelessness.

00:06:21.340 But it's a symbol for the rot

00:06:22.960 that comes as a result of these leftist policies.

00:06:27.900 More importantly, even than that, I think,

00:06:29.980 and the reason why Trump probably should swing back

00:06:31.980 through Hollywood next time he gets a chance,

00:06:34.020 is just for the rest of the country,

00:06:36.240 he gets to use Hollywood as a foil

00:06:38.740 for him and for his policies.

00:06:41.480 That liberal, vindictive Hollywood can be the foil.

00:06:44.040 It's like the anti-Trump.

00:06:45.120 I mean, we saw just a few weeks ago the stars of Will & Grace,

00:06:48.540 Eric McCormick, and Deborah Messing,

00:06:50.860 who Trump then nicknamed Deborah the Mess Messing 0.99

00:06:53.520 in his very Trumpian way.

00:06:55.760 They came out and they called for the public naming

00:06:59.820 of any Trump supporter in Hollywood.

00:07:02.840 We're talking about McCarthyite blacklists.

00:07:04.980 I even hesitate to use the term McCarthyite

00:07:07.140 to describe what they were doing

00:07:08.560 because at least Joe McCarthy was going after communists.

00:07:11.620 At least Joe McCarthy was going after enemies of America.

00:07:13.900 Those two, Will & Grace,

00:07:15.500 were going after people who support the president.

00:07:18.180 They said explicitly,

00:07:20.100 we want you to name their names

00:07:21.620 so we know who not to work with.

00:07:24.020 We want you to name their names

00:07:25.280 so we know who to blacklist,

00:07:26.800 who to ruin their reputations,

00:07:28.660 ruin their careers,

00:07:29.420 take away their livelihood.

00:07:32.260 That is a bad look.

00:07:33.660 I mean, there was even some pushback

00:07:35.080 from liberal Hollywood about that.

00:07:36.580 And Trump gets to come out there

00:07:37.720 and one, trigger them,

00:07:39.540 I mean, whip them up into that frenzy,

00:07:41.220 and then show the rest of the country.

00:07:43.200 So you have genuinely a choice, not an echo.

00:07:46.380 You know, Hollywood has widespread reach.

00:07:48.980 They are exporters of culture.

00:07:51.520 And so, Will & Grace going out

00:07:54.600 and calling for a blacklist,

00:07:56.300 maybe it won't change votes in California.

00:07:58.180 It's almost certainly not going to flip California

00:07:59.680 to become some Republican state.

00:08:02.040 But that sort of vindictive leftism

00:08:04.460 is not going to play in Peoria.

00:08:06.340 That vindictive leftism is not going to play

00:08:08.520 in the middle of the country

00:08:09.520 where we're looking at them and saying,

00:08:11.380 gosh, if I have to choose,

00:08:12.600 every election is about a choice.

00:08:14.200 If I have to choose between Trump,

00:08:15.660 who's given us a pretty good economy,

00:08:17.280 you know, he's got some mean tweets,

00:08:18.820 but whatever, they're pretty funny,

00:08:20.560 and relative peace,

00:08:22.040 and he actually seems pretty normal,

00:08:23.740 and I get to choose between that

00:08:24.940 or these lunatics out there in Hollywood,

00:08:27.060 who am I going to pick?

00:08:27.820 Obviously, you're going to pick President Trump.

00:08:30.580 How does he do it?

00:08:31.940 He does it because he's a Hollywood figure.

00:08:33.560 The last guy to use California in this way

00:08:36.780 was another Hollywood guy,

00:08:38.320 which was Ronald Reagan.

00:08:39.300 You know, the conservative movement,

00:08:41.300 in many ways,

00:08:42.100 the post-war conservative movement,

00:08:43.840 came out of California.

00:08:45.120 You had Bill Buckley in New York,

00:08:46.460 and then you had Reagan in California,

00:08:48.540 and you had Orange County,

00:08:49.980 which used to be a Republican stronghold.

00:08:52.080 Now, after decades and decades

00:08:53.760 of specifically illegal immigration,

00:08:56.700 demographic changes have made California bluer.

00:09:01.080 But there are still a lot of conservatives here.

00:09:03.960 It's a gigantic state.

00:09:05.620 I mean, if you can lose a state in a landslide

00:09:07.820 and still get 4.5 million votes,

00:09:09.700 it's worth swinging by.

00:09:11.020 Trump knows that,

00:09:12.140 and I think he's going to play Hollywood

00:09:14.060 for all it's worth.

00:09:14.820 He's already done this with the media.

00:09:16.660 He's already done this

00:09:17.580 in a lot of other left-wing places,

00:09:19.340 and it's pretty wise.

00:09:20.520 So congratulations to him on the 15 million bucks.

00:09:23.120 Glad to hear that conservatives in California

00:09:26.100 are fired up about it.

00:09:27.580 That's what's going on here.

00:09:29.260 I mean, that's how the Republicans

00:09:30.940 are focusing their campaigns.

00:09:34.380 What is the left doing, though?

00:09:35.780 What are the Democrats doing?

00:09:37.100 We'll get in a little bit

00:09:38.160 to what some of the presidential candidates

00:09:39.760 are talking about.

00:09:41.080 But over on Capitol Hill,

00:09:42.940 while the Republican Party

00:09:44.660 is talking about homelessness,

00:09:46.080 talking about the drug crisis,

00:09:47.480 talking about the economy,

00:09:48.940 the left and Democrats

00:09:50.420 are talking about the sun monster.

00:09:53.020 They're talking about global warming.

00:09:54.440 They're saying global warming

00:09:55.220 is going to kill us

00:09:56.100 within 10 years or 12 years

00:09:57.460 or 14 months or whatever.

00:10:00.040 They're a big expert

00:10:01.100 that they've brought in

00:10:02.000 to testify on this question

00:10:03.240 of global warming

00:10:04.000 is not a scientist,

00:10:05.980 though they always tell us

00:10:06.780 about how we need to listen

00:10:07.860 to the scientists.

00:10:09.100 It's not a political philosophy

00:10:10.960 or a policymaker.

00:10:12.900 It's a 16-year-old Swedish girl

00:10:16.040 named Greta Thunberg,

00:10:18.500 16-year-old Swedish girl

00:10:19.760 who at age 15

00:10:21.120 became best known

00:10:23.160 for skipping school

00:10:24.600 to protest global warming

00:10:27.100 outside of the Swedish parliament.

00:10:29.600 What a racket.

00:10:30.600 Good job, kid.

00:10:32.280 Can you imagine 15 years old

00:10:33.900 you decide you want to skip school

00:10:35.180 and then you somehow convince

00:10:37.000 your parents and your teachers

00:10:38.600 and the whole country

00:10:39.700 and much of the leftist world

00:10:41.240 to applaud you for it?

00:10:42.800 Really, really smart.

00:10:44.800 She's obviously a firecracker. 1.00

00:10:47.980 She does that at 15.

00:10:49.060 Then she starts organizing

00:10:50.280 the school climate strike movement.

00:10:52.900 So she encourages other students

00:10:54.140 to skip school

00:10:54.900 to protest the weather.

00:10:56.720 Here is young 16-year-old Greta,

00:10:59.000 the great expert

00:11:01.640 that the Democrats are calling in,

00:11:03.540 talking about the perils

00:11:05.100 of climate change on Capitol Hill.

00:11:06.680 My name is Greta Thunberg.

00:11:11.900 I have not come to offer

00:11:14.280 any prepared remarks

00:11:16.520 at this hearing.

00:11:17.620 I am instead attaching my testimony.

00:11:23.400 It is the IPCC Special Report

00:11:25.900 on Global Warming

00:11:26.800 of 1.5 degrees Celsius,

00:11:29.580 the SR 1.5,

00:11:31.300 which was released

00:11:32.640 on October 8, 2018.

00:11:37.460 I am submitting this report

00:11:39.680 as my testimony

00:11:41.440 because I don't want you

00:11:43.460 to listen to me.

00:11:44.400 I want you to listen

00:11:45.820 to the scientists

00:11:46.780 and I want you to unite

00:11:50.160 behind the science

00:11:52.020 and then I want you

00:11:54.440 to take real action.

00:11:57.160 Thank you.

00:11:58.300 This testimony

00:11:59.340 is the perfect encapsulation

00:12:01.800 of leftist politics.

00:12:03.720 You have meaningless slogans

00:12:05.540 uttered without any arguments

00:12:07.420 by ignorant children

00:12:08.660 with no respect

00:12:09.840 for national borders.

00:12:10.840 That is leftism

00:12:13.100 in a nutshell.

00:12:15.340 You have this girl come.

00:12:16.760 She actually was very smart

00:12:17.840 not to give testimony

00:12:19.720 and not to give her own remarks.

00:12:21.180 Why?

00:12:21.380 Because she's a 16-year-old girl

00:12:22.460 and she doesn't know anything

00:12:23.400 and it would embarrass her.

00:12:24.840 So she knew, well,

00:12:26.060 not to do that

00:12:26.660 and so she said,

00:12:27.200 I'm here

00:12:27.560 and my remarks

00:12:29.180 are going to be

00:12:30.040 the IPCC report

00:12:31.660 on climate change.

00:12:35.060 Okay,

00:12:35.680 what does that mean?

00:12:38.340 Here's the report.

00:12:39.220 There are a few reports

00:12:40.600 from the International Panel

00:12:42.660 on Climate Change.

00:12:44.880 What is the implication of it?

00:12:46.700 What is the consequence of that?

00:12:48.400 I mean,

00:12:48.680 you have the left tell us

00:12:50.240 we need to base our politics

00:12:51.380 on science.

00:12:52.520 Politics is about

00:12:53.240 how we're going to live together.

00:12:54.220 It's about what we should do.

00:12:55.240 It's not just making observations

00:12:56.960 about the world.

00:12:58.020 It's interpreting the world.

00:12:59.580 It's interpreting those facts

00:13:00.620 and science and observations

00:13:02.020 and then deciding

00:13:04.100 what to do with that

00:13:05.280 and what the effect of that

00:13:06.160 will be on how we govern ourselves.

00:13:07.600 So you can't just attach

00:13:08.960 some scientific study

00:13:10.360 even if it's a highly politicized one

00:13:11.900 like the IPCC report

00:13:13.240 and say,

00:13:13.620 okay, here's your government.

00:13:15.000 That's not good enough.

00:13:16.520 We're not just a machine.

00:13:17.980 There's not just a clear answer.

00:13:19.580 What we do in deliberative bodies,

00:13:22.260 what we do in self-government

00:13:23.480 is interpret the world

00:13:25.360 and then decide

00:13:25.900 how we want to govern ourselves.

00:13:29.320 This is what the left does though.

00:13:31.460 These meaningless slogans,

00:13:33.160 these constant promotion

00:13:34.420 of ignorant children,

00:13:35.540 some of them very overgrown children,

00:13:36.900 no respect for national borders.

00:13:38.680 Why are we listening

00:13:39.120 to the Swedish girl?

00:13:39.940 You couldn't even find

00:13:40.520 a 16-year-old American girl

00:13:41.760 to talk about this?

00:13:42.700 No, of course not.

00:13:43.900 And empty and counterproductive stunts.

00:13:47.500 So the only reason

00:13:48.580 you might have heard of this girl,

00:13:49.660 Greta Thunberg,

00:13:50.800 is because she just pulled 1.00

00:13:53.020 another big stunt.

00:13:54.660 This was only about

00:13:55.220 a month or two ago.

00:13:56.440 She took a transatlantic voyage

00:13:59.140 on a zero-carbon yacht.

00:14:02.460 What is a zero-carbon yacht?

00:14:03.800 I don't know.

00:14:05.240 The zero-carbon yacht

00:14:06.420 is a ship that she took

00:14:09.520 across the Atlantic Ocean

00:14:10.580 that was not going

00:14:12.480 to pollute the environment.

00:14:13.500 Even though the ship's

00:14:14.160 made of plastic,

00:14:14.880 so obviously the construction

00:14:15.740 of it hurt the environment.

00:14:17.280 And it's four million pounds,

00:14:19.360 so you're looking at, what,

00:14:20.080 six million dollars or more

00:14:21.520 for this boat.

00:14:22.700 I mean, it was just a really nice boat,

00:14:24.320 60-foot Milizia II yacht.

00:14:27.180 It was fitted out with solar panels

00:14:29.200 and underwater turbines

00:14:30.520 that produced the electricity on board,

00:14:32.360 so it wasn't burning any fossil fuels.

00:14:34.820 It wasn't ostensibly

00:14:35.760 harming the environment.

00:14:36.880 So she said she was going

00:14:37.860 to take this carbon-free boat trip

00:14:41.300 across the Atlantic

00:14:42.400 to raise awareness

00:14:43.440 about climate change.

00:14:45.200 The trouble for this stunt, though,

00:14:46.920 is it later came out

00:14:48.340 that while she did take

00:14:50.140 the zero-carbon yacht

00:14:51.140 across the water,

00:14:52.060 so she wasn't polluting

00:14:53.380 the environment

00:14:53.900 by flying on an airplane,

00:14:55.180 for instance,

00:14:56.220 two people had to fly out

00:14:58.220 to America on a jet

00:14:59.820 to take the ship back to Europe.

00:15:02.940 So it wasn't just,

00:15:03.500 if she had just flown to America

00:15:04.580 on an airplane,

00:15:05.280 she would have had

00:15:06.320 much less of an effect

00:15:08.240 on the environment

00:15:09.040 than if she did 0.76

00:15:09.680 this whole big stunt.

00:15:10.500 Two people fly out

00:15:11.220 to take the boat back to Europe,

00:15:12.320 and then there were other reports

00:15:13.520 that two more people flew out

00:15:14.980 to meet up with Greta.

00:15:15.900 Why?

00:15:16.120 Because she's a 16-year-old girl.

00:15:17.320 She needs handlers. 0.93

00:15:18.120 She's not going to go

00:15:18.740 across the Atlantic Ocean

00:15:20.140 and hang out in America

00:15:21.780 all by herself.

00:15:22.740 So this stunt,

00:15:24.980 in the end,

00:15:25.580 I suppose it raised awareness,

00:15:26.960 but it didn't raise awareness

00:15:27.740 for global warming.

00:15:28.820 It raised awareness

00:15:29.720 about the hypocrisy

00:15:31.280 of environmental activists.

00:15:33.020 Again,

00:15:33.260 I don't really blame her

00:15:34.020 for this.

00:15:34.640 16-year-olds do this

00:15:35.780 all the time.

00:15:36.760 Teenagers are constantly

00:15:38.900 pulling grandiose stunts

00:15:41.080 and having too much self-regard.

00:15:43.020 But I do blame the adults.

00:15:46.480 One, for exploiting her,

00:15:47.900 and two,

00:15:48.240 for encouraging this nonsense.

00:15:49.920 It occurred to me

00:15:50.560 climate change

00:15:51.580 is the perfect issue

00:15:54.220 for teenagers

00:15:55.040 to get upset about.

00:15:56.620 It's the absolute perfect issue

00:15:57.980 because it fulfills

00:15:58.880 everything teenagers

00:16:00.200 are longing for.

00:16:01.320 That grandiosity,

00:16:02.660 that outside self-regard,

00:16:04.060 and even religious longings.

00:16:05.740 You know,

00:16:05.920 we're seeing increasingly,

00:16:07.540 this is certainly true

00:16:08.240 in Sweden

00:16:08.640 as it is here in America,

00:16:10.420 that teenagers,

00:16:11.400 Gen Z,

00:16:12.100 and millennials

00:16:12.640 were raised

00:16:13.500 without religion. 0.88

00:16:14.820 But everybody

00:16:15.480 has religious longings.

00:16:16.920 Everybody has a sense

00:16:17.840 of the divine,

00:16:18.500 a sense of purpose

00:16:19.200 in the world,

00:16:20.380 a hope that what they're doing

00:16:22.640 has meaning,

00:16:23.380 that their life has meaning.

00:16:25.040 And so,

00:16:25.940 because politics

00:16:27.820 has become religion

00:16:28.720 for the left,

00:16:30.300 environmentalism,

00:16:31.700 climate change,

00:16:32.580 fulfills those longings.

00:16:34.260 And for teenagers

00:16:35.300 to come out and say,

00:16:36.320 I'm going to save the world,

00:16:38.260 that's all you ever want to do.

00:16:39.640 I mean,

00:16:40.720 when you're a teenager,

00:16:42.440 you feel that you don't have power,

00:16:43.700 you feel that you're coming

00:16:44.460 into your own,

00:16:45.080 but you're being held back

00:16:45.920 by rules,

00:16:46.620 by your parents,

00:16:47.480 by your schooling,

00:16:48.380 by not being able

00:16:48.980 to fulfill your grand dreams.

00:16:50.380 And all you want to do

00:16:51.660 is go out and say,

00:16:52.320 we're going to make a difference,

00:16:53.060 we're going to change the world,

00:16:54.040 they're going to get famous,

00:16:54.880 they're going to have influence.

00:16:57.240 Climate change fulfills

00:16:58.160 all of that,

00:16:59.880 at least in one's mind.

00:17:02.380 That's fine.

00:17:03.000 Teenagers want to do that. 0.93

00:17:03.940 Teenagers do stupid things 1.00

00:17:04.920 all the time.

00:17:05.360 It's far less appropriate,

00:17:06.940 though,

00:17:07.200 for adults

00:17:08.280 to get all revved up

00:17:09.860 about this.

00:17:11.160 So she comes out there,

00:17:12.160 she does as good a job 0.99

00:17:13.340 as she possibly could,

00:17:14.180 I think,

00:17:14.480 testifying on Capitol Hill,

00:17:15.680 and she says,

00:17:16.100 I've attached the UN report.

00:17:17.220 Why is she attached 1.00

00:17:17.740 the UN report?

00:17:18.320 Because she has nothing to say.

00:17:20.640 The more and more you hear

00:17:21.620 the left say,

00:17:22.060 we need to listen

00:17:22.580 to the scientists.

00:17:24.240 You say,

00:17:24.640 well,

00:17:24.880 then how come

00:17:25.340 the chief spokesman

00:17:26.160 on this issue

00:17:26.640 is Al Gore?

00:17:27.340 How come the other spokesman

00:17:28.280 on this issue

00:17:28.820 is this Swedish teenager?

00:17:31.080 I don't really hear

00:17:31.820 a whole lot

00:17:32.220 from the scientists.

00:17:33.080 And by the way,

00:17:33.720 government isn't

00:17:34.720 a scientific endeavor.

00:17:36.380 Politics isn't

00:17:36.980 a scientific endeavor.

00:17:40.240 Politics is essentially

00:17:41.340 about speech,

00:17:42.200 about persuasion,

00:17:43.200 about values,

00:17:44.320 about ethics,

00:17:45.540 about virtue,

00:17:46.620 about how we want

00:17:47.480 to live together.

00:17:49.280 I mean,

00:17:49.500 these are,

00:17:51.020 again,

00:17:52.100 I suppose the ultimate reason

00:17:54.060 why it was good

00:17:54.480 to have a 16-year-old

00:17:55.260 on this issue

00:17:55.760 is because it's

00:17:56.720 a fantasy issue.

00:17:57.940 I mean,

00:17:58.120 every day we're told

00:17:58.860 we have less and less time

00:17:59.720 to live.

00:18:00.500 AOC says Miami

00:18:01.440 is not going to exist

00:18:02.460 within two years.

00:18:03.940 So that's fine.

00:18:05.400 They're talking about

00:18:06.040 these fantasy issues.

00:18:07.120 But how is that going

00:18:08.420 to play in 2020?

00:18:09.960 Because if they had

00:18:12.960 something real

00:18:13.620 to campaign on,

00:18:14.800 I think they would.

00:18:16.080 I think this focus

00:18:17.480 on the climate change

00:18:18.800 or on AR-15s

00:18:20.940 or on these really

00:18:22.660 niche issues

00:18:23.380 that they're going

00:18:23.840 very extreme,

00:18:25.000 it's coming from a place

00:18:26.580 of not having

00:18:27.400 anything else

00:18:28.400 to run on.

00:18:30.820 Can't run on the economy.

00:18:31.940 Can't run on war.

00:18:32.880 Can't run on suffering.

00:18:35.360 Can't run on unemployment.

00:18:36.780 Can't run on any

00:18:37.620 of those things.

00:18:38.640 Materially and just

00:18:40.020 from a very basic level,

00:18:41.380 things are going

00:18:41.800 pretty well.

00:18:42.540 You see this not just

00:18:43.860 on climate change.

00:18:45.000 You see this even

00:18:45.720 on other long-standing

00:18:46.940 issues like gun control.

00:18:48.400 You now have

00:18:49.060 Democratic presidential

00:18:50.080 candidates openly

00:18:51.520 calling for gun

00:18:53.620 confiscation.

00:18:55.700 Kamala Harris has come

00:18:56.720 out.

00:18:56.880 She's joined Beto O'Rourke

00:18:58.240 and a number of others

00:18:59.460 in saying we need

00:19:01.040 to not only ban

00:19:02.640 assault weapons,

00:19:03.480 not only stop producing

00:19:04.420 them, not only stop

00:19:05.280 selling them,

00:19:05.880 not only buy them back,

00:19:07.040 we need mandatory

00:19:08.620 buybacks,

00:19:09.880 which is an

00:19:10.260 unbelievable Orwellian

00:19:11.940 politically correct phrase,

00:19:13.160 which is a euphemism

00:19:14.460 for stealing.

00:19:15.280 Here's Kamala Harris 0.71

00:19:16.180 talking about how

00:19:17.040 she's going to steal 1.00

00:19:17.540 your guns.

00:19:18.620 Assault weapons

00:19:19.520 are weapons of war.

00:19:21.820 Be clear about this.

00:19:23.380 Assault weapons

00:19:24.020 are designed

00:19:25.040 to kill a lot

00:19:26.840 of people quickly.

00:19:28.620 There is no

00:19:29.620 reason that

00:19:31.000 they should exist

00:19:32.180 on the streets

00:19:33.040 of a civil society.

00:19:35.060 The assault weapon term,

00:19:37.200 which is a made-up term

00:19:38.120 from just the last

00:19:38.760 30 years,

00:19:39.520 I think this is the

00:19:40.340 one appropriate

00:19:41.740 use of it

00:19:42.540 because right now

00:19:43.420 Kamala Harris

00:19:44.160 is taking a flamethrower

00:19:45.760 to a field

00:19:46.740 of straw men.

00:19:49.140 This is how you know

00:19:50.440 that the left

00:19:51.060 doesn't have an argument

00:19:52.100 on gun control

00:19:53.300 or global warming

00:19:54.100 or really anything else.

00:19:55.560 The way that you know

00:19:56.480 that they don't have

00:19:57.000 an argument on this

00:19:57.840 is they keep using

00:19:59.300 all these euphemisms.

00:20:00.720 Assault weapons,

00:20:02.120 mandatory buyback,

00:20:03.660 weapons of war.

00:20:04.460 What is an assault weapon?

00:20:07.780 Conservatives ask this

00:20:08.660 all the time

00:20:09.180 because the definition

00:20:10.320 changes every single day

00:20:11.440 because it's a made-up term

00:20:12.680 from the 1980s

00:20:14.000 that the left

00:20:14.840 started to use

00:20:15.960 to confuse people

00:20:17.060 about semi-automatic rifles

00:20:18.640 where you pull the trigger

00:20:19.440 once and one round

00:20:20.300 comes out

00:20:20.800 and they wanted them

00:20:21.620 to conflate that

00:20:22.220 with fully automatic weapons

00:20:23.460 which have been illegal

00:20:24.580 in the United States,

00:20:25.620 more or less illegal

00:20:26.540 for decades and decades.

00:20:29.300 All weapons

00:20:30.320 are assault weapons.

00:20:33.200 100% of weapons

00:20:34.660 are assault weapons.

00:20:36.240 Even perfectly innocuous things

00:20:37.900 can become assault weapons

00:20:38.900 if you use them

00:20:39.460 to assault people.

00:20:40.380 The purpose of weapons

00:20:41.260 is assault.

00:20:42.720 That's what they're there for.

00:20:43.580 They're not there

00:20:44.040 just to look really good

00:20:44.940 mounted over your fireplace.

00:20:46.360 They're not there

00:20:47.120 so that you can just clean it,

00:20:48.700 you know,

00:20:48.960 sitting on your front porch

00:20:50.220 spitting tabacchi

00:20:51.140 into a spittoon.

00:20:52.300 They're there

00:20:52.860 to assault people.

00:20:53.880 They're there

00:20:54.100 to shoot people.

00:20:55.020 They're there

00:20:55.320 to kill people. 0.70

00:20:56.680 Weapons of war.

00:20:58.440 All weapons

00:20:59.560 are weapons of war.

00:21:01.760 The chief end

00:21:02.540 of weaponry

00:21:03.220 is war.

00:21:04.120 It's about inflicting

00:21:05.160 violence

00:21:05.900 on other people.

00:21:08.900 What about mandatory

00:21:10.000 gun buybacks?

00:21:10.980 This is my favorite one.

00:21:12.120 This is the one

00:21:12.560 that has really

00:21:13.020 cropped up over time.

00:21:13.880 First of all,

00:21:14.460 even if it were

00:21:15.000 just a buyback,

00:21:15.860 forget the mandatory

00:21:16.400 for a second,

00:21:17.400 even if Beto

00:21:19.060 and Kamala Harris

00:21:20.140 were talking

00:21:20.460 just about buybacks,

00:21:22.100 the government

00:21:23.660 can't issue

00:21:25.020 a gun buyback

00:21:26.240 because I didn't

00:21:27.020 buy my gun

00:21:27.640 from the government

00:21:28.200 in the first place.

00:21:29.500 I bought my gun

00:21:30.220 from a store.

00:21:31.360 I guess the store

00:21:31.920 could offer to buy back

00:21:32.700 my gun,

00:21:33.120 but the government

00:21:33.720 cannot.

00:21:34.380 I didn't get my gun

00:21:35.180 from the government.

00:21:35.820 I got my gun

00:21:36.540 to protect myself

00:21:37.560 against the government

00:21:38.320 if things ever go crazy

00:21:40.280 and I got to get

00:21:40.800 out of Dodge.

00:21:42.540 Then you add on

00:21:43.380 the mandatory part

00:21:44.400 and it gets even

00:21:44.940 more ridiculous.

00:21:46.200 So it's not a buyback.

00:21:47.740 The government

00:21:48.200 basically just wants

00:21:48.760 to take your weapons

00:21:49.460 away and they're

00:21:49.900 offering to pay you

00:21:50.560 a little bit for it.

00:21:52.200 When you add

00:21:52.720 mandatory to it,

00:21:53.820 it's no longer

00:21:54.440 even buying.

00:21:55.620 I mean,

00:21:55.900 buying implies

00:21:57.060 the free exchange

00:21:58.000 of goods and services.

00:21:59.140 It implies that

00:21:59.620 you're purchasing something.

00:22:00.600 Okay, I want this good

00:22:01.660 and so I'm going to

00:22:02.340 part with my money

00:22:03.040 to get that good.

00:22:03.720 When you add in

00:22:04.680 mandatory buyback,

00:22:07.080 that's just a euphemism

00:22:08.380 for theft,

00:22:10.480 for stealing,

00:22:11.440 for confiscation.

00:22:13.300 But they don't want

00:22:14.060 to use those terms.

00:22:14.860 You know,

00:22:15.160 the left always does this.

00:22:16.400 Instead of talking

00:22:16.960 about killing babies,

00:22:17.920 they talk about

00:22:18.620 protecting women's

00:22:20.300 health care.

00:22:22.900 It has nothing to do

00:22:24.160 with the actual act

00:22:24.980 which is killing babies. 1.00

00:22:26.820 But they use

00:22:28.120 these euphemisms

00:22:28.800 because they know

00:22:29.280 the reality of it

00:22:30.000 is too unpopular

00:22:30.740 and in this case

00:22:31.500 the reality of it

00:22:32.340 is unconstitutional.

00:22:33.720 We have a second

00:22:34.800 amendment in this country

00:22:35.980 but if you have

00:22:37.280 mandatory buybacks

00:22:38.240 there's no such thing

00:22:39.140 as a second amendment.

00:22:41.000 Now it doesn't really matter

00:22:42.280 what Kamala Harris 0.69

00:22:43.140 and Beto O'Rourke say

00:22:44.140 in and of itself

00:22:45.180 because their campaigns

00:22:46.020 are going absolutely nowhere

00:22:47.320 and they're going nowhere

00:22:49.560 actually in part

00:22:50.340 because they keep

00:22:50.840 flip-flopping

00:22:51.400 for political convenience

00:22:52.480 on all of these

00:22:53.900 important issues.

00:22:54.820 But just listen to it.

00:22:55.700 Listen to Beto O'Rourke

00:22:56.700 just two or three months ago

00:22:58.100 saying he's not going

00:22:59.600 to take away your guns

00:23:00.520 compared to Beto O'Rourke

00:23:02.160 just a week ago

00:23:02.920 saying hell yes

00:23:04.500 we're going to take

00:23:05.180 your AR-15s.

00:23:06.480 Are you proposing

00:23:07.320 taking away their guns

00:23:08.620 and how would this work?

00:23:10.160 I am.

00:23:11.000 If it's a weapon

00:23:11.960 that was designed

00:23:12.760 to kill people 0.87

00:23:13.740 on a battlefield

00:23:15.300 if the high-impact

00:23:20.760 high-velocity round

00:23:21.820 when it hits your body

00:23:22.840 shreds everything 1.00

00:23:24.380 inside of your body

00:23:25.780 because it was designed

00:23:26.660 to do that

00:23:27.300 so that you would

00:23:28.100 bleed to death

00:23:28.720 on a battlefield

00:23:29.480 and not be able to get up

00:23:30.480 and kill one of our soldiers

00:23:31.880 when we see that being used

00:23:33.740 against children

00:23:35.120 and in Odessa

00:23:36.700 I met the mother

00:23:37.680 of a 15-year-old girl

00:23:39.200 who was shot by an AR-15

00:23:41.000 and that mother 0.87

00:23:42.140 watched her bleed to death

00:23:43.360 over the course of an hour

00:23:44.700 because so many other people

00:23:46.180 were shot by that AR-15

00:23:47.620 in Odessa

00:23:48.660 in Midland

00:23:49.120 there weren't enough ambulances

00:23:50.200 to get to them

00:23:51.000 in time

00:23:51.860 hell yes

00:23:52.740 we're going to take

00:23:53.340 your AR-15

00:23:54.140 your AK-47

00:23:55.320 we're not going to allow it

00:23:56.740 to be used against

00:23:57.680 our fellow Americans

00:23:59.120 anymore

00:23:59.740 you may not have listened

00:24:01.860 to the last part

00:24:03.380 of that clip

00:24:03.880 because he loses you

00:24:04.960 in the first sentence

00:24:06.120 with one of the stupidest

00:24:07.840 statements I've yet heard

00:24:09.240 in this 2020 campaign

00:24:10.360 which is really saying

00:24:11.120 something

00:24:11.440 he says

00:24:12.760 yeah we're going to

00:24:14.040 ban the guns

00:24:14.840 if the guns were designed

00:24:16.140 to kill people 0.87

00:24:16.780 if the weapons were designed

00:24:17.700 to kill people 0.87

00:24:18.320 we're going to ban them

00:24:19.540 what does he think

00:24:22.000 guns are for?

00:24:23.740 what do these people think

00:24:24.960 even if they

00:24:25.520 sometimes

00:24:26.220 they twist what

00:24:28.020 the second amendment is

00:24:28.800 the second amendment is

00:24:29.480 about protecting you

00:24:30.460 and your rights

00:24:30.980 and your freedom

00:24:31.440 but they'll say

00:24:33.940 well it's really for hunting

00:24:34.980 it's not

00:24:35.640 there's no

00:24:36.360 the framers didn't add it

00:24:37.380 to the bill of rights

00:24:38.060 to protect your right

00:24:38.800 to go shoot a bunny rabbit

00:24:39.760 but even if it were

00:24:41.280 they killed the bunny rabbit

00:24:43.980 when you go hunting

00:24:45.040 you kill the animal

00:24:46.140 the purpose of guns

00:24:47.740 is to kill people 0.65

00:24:49.460 and to kill animals

00:24:51.060 but the reason I bring up Beto

00:24:53.920 is because of the flip

00:24:55.680 how quick this was

00:24:56.720 this is Beto just a few months ago

00:24:58.100 saying I'm not going to take your guns

00:24:59.660 and then Beto a week or so ago

00:25:02.640 saying hell yes

00:25:04.040 I'm going to take your guns

00:25:04.820 to be clear

00:25:05.840 they should have them

00:25:06.700 if you purchase that AR-15

00:25:08.080 if you own it

00:25:09.020 keep it

00:25:09.680 continue to use it responsibly

00:25:11.900 hell yes

00:25:12.580 we're going to take your AR-15

00:25:13.980 your AK-47

00:25:14.980 hell yes

00:25:16.700 we're going to take your AR-15

00:25:19.440 your AK-47

00:25:21.580 there it is

00:25:23.520 and it just teaches

00:25:24.620 republicans not to trust

00:25:26.540 democrats on this issue

00:25:27.580 and the next time

00:25:28.720 that the democrats

00:25:29.660 make fun of us

00:25:30.400 and they say

00:25:30.620 we're not going to take your guns

00:25:31.760 stop it you catastrophists

00:25:33.460 we're not going to take your guns

00:25:34.960 you point to Beto O'Rourke

00:25:36.320 you say this isn't

00:25:37.160 look he's kind of a loser

00:25:38.280 he's not going to have

00:25:39.940 a major influence

00:25:40.640 on American politics

00:25:41.480 but the guy was

00:25:42.560 a top tier senate candidate

00:25:44.300 and he lost

00:25:45.000 and for a while

00:25:46.240 he was a top tier

00:25:47.020 presidential candidate

00:25:47.980 among the democrats

00:25:48.880 and then he wasn't

00:25:50.420 but you know

00:25:50.980 he had the vanity fair

00:25:52.000 cover spread

00:25:53.000 the democrats were talking

00:25:54.700 about him as though

00:25:55.260 he was the next Obama 0.71

00:25:56.120 he's still on that

00:25:56.920 debate stage for some reason

00:25:58.080 very prominent democrat

00:25:59.900 who did it within just

00:26:01.980 two or three months

00:26:02.700 completely flipped

00:26:03.440 said

00:26:03.740 he's going to take

00:26:05.260 your guns

00:26:05.880 doesn't play

00:26:07.080 very well

00:26:08.080 you know

00:26:08.520 people know

00:26:10.600 people get it

00:26:12.000 the silent majority

00:26:13.900 I guess

00:26:14.580 I guess we can't call it

00:26:15.660 the silent majority

00:26:16.440 like when we're talking

00:26:17.300 about Trump supporters

00:26:18.020 in California

00:26:18.620 but you could at least

00:26:19.600 call it the silent plurality

00:26:20.820 you could at least

00:26:21.320 call it a large group

00:26:23.800 of voters

00:26:24.580 who just see through it

00:26:26.420 you know

00:26:26.640 we were talking

00:26:27.260 earlier this week

00:26:28.140 about the political

00:26:29.120 philosopher James Burnham's

00:26:30.480 ten rules

00:26:31.540 ten laws

00:26:32.320 and the first one

00:26:33.220 is everybody knows

00:26:33.980 everything

00:26:34.380 people know

00:26:35.560 the AR-15s

00:26:36.640 aren't the problem

00:26:37.420 so few people

00:26:39.840 relatively

00:26:40.420 are killed each year

00:26:41.440 with AR-15s

00:26:42.560 you are between

00:26:43.320 22 and 23 times

00:26:44.860 as likely

00:26:45.360 to be killed

00:26:46.200 with a handgun

00:26:47.040 as you are

00:26:47.900 with a rifle

00:26:48.520 of any kind

00:26:49.180 any kind of rifle

00:26:49.960 including

00:26:50.560 the dread AR-15

00:26:52.160 or AK-47

00:26:53.620 people know this

00:26:54.920 and this is especially

00:26:57.100 true of people

00:26:57.960 who actually know

00:26:58.960 what weapons are

00:26:59.860 who actually have

00:27:00.520 some experience

00:27:01.100 with guns

00:27:01.640 I mean it's always

00:27:02.540 so ironic

00:27:03.320 that the people

00:27:04.100 who are trying

00:27:04.440 to take your guns

00:27:05.240 trying to abolish

00:27:06.420 the second amendment

00:27:07.380 through brute force

00:27:08.880 who are trying to

00:27:09.900 regulate all of your

00:27:11.020 weapons

00:27:11.360 don't actually know

00:27:12.520 anything about it

00:27:13.220 it's actually good

00:27:13.860 for us

00:27:14.300 it's good for gun owners

00:27:15.300 it gives us an advantage

00:27:16.200 because they write up

00:27:17.280 some stupid law

00:27:18.100 and they say

00:27:18.900 okay now we got it

00:27:19.960 now we'll take away

00:27:20.560 your guns

00:27:20.920 and then you make

00:27:21.600 like two modifications

00:27:22.460 to the gun

00:27:23.000 and then you're

00:27:23.360 absolutely fine

00:27:24.140 I mean they just

00:27:24.580 did that in California

00:27:25.840 they don't know

00:27:27.380 what they're talking about

00:27:28.560 he says we're not

00:27:29.120 going to ban

00:27:29.460 any of the guns

00:27:29.980 except the ones

00:27:30.520 designed to kill people

00:27:31.460 oh okay great

00:27:33.800 that sounds good

00:27:34.440 I mean I was on

00:27:35.080 a Fox show last night

00:27:36.000 I was on Martha McCallum's

00:27:36.920 show with Juan Williams

00:27:38.340 I like Juan Williams

00:27:39.400 very much

00:27:39.980 he's a very intelligent guy

00:27:41.260 he doesn't know

00:27:42.040 anything about guns

00:27:42.780 and so he mentioned

00:27:44.340 on this show

00:27:45.040 how we need to ban

00:27:46.240 AR-47s 0.92

00:27:47.640 I don't bring this up

00:27:48.480 just to make fun of

00:27:49.360 Juan for not knowing

00:27:50.720 a lot about guns

00:27:51.500 I think he's actually

00:27:52.560 representative of a lot

00:27:53.780 of people on the left

00:27:54.680 in this country

00:27:55.280 of course there's no such

00:27:56.340 gun as an AR-47

00:27:57.880 there are AK-47

00:27:59.100 there's an AR-15

00:28:00.480 but the left

00:28:01.900 especially the elite left

00:28:03.720 especially the chattering class

00:28:05.020 especially the leftist politicians

00:28:06.740 they have a completely

00:28:08.640 different view on guns

00:28:09.980 than people who actually

00:28:11.140 use them

00:28:11.620 so they just see

00:28:12.520 big scary gun

00:28:13.660 looks like

00:28:14.800 a military gun

00:28:16.080 looks like

00:28:17.040 an automatic weapon

00:28:18.060 bad

00:28:18.860 ban it

00:28:19.520 everyone's going to

00:28:20.340 agree with us

00:28:21.140 they're not

00:28:23.280 they're not

00:28:24.400 everybody knows

00:28:25.700 and we're talking about

00:28:27.240 my ironic corollary

00:28:28.700 to everybody knows

00:28:29.540 which is everybody

00:28:30.660 knows everything

00:28:31.300 and nobody knows anything

00:28:32.740 specifically

00:28:33.600 the people who don't know

00:28:35.400 that everybody knows

00:28:36.160 everything

00:28:36.580 are the ones

00:28:37.500 who don't know anything

00:28:38.360 and that is disproportionately

00:28:40.200 the self-appointed elite

00:28:42.300 the chattering class 0.98

00:28:43.240 the democratic candidates

00:28:44.580 for president

00:28:45.460 they're not so clever

00:28:47.480 those guys

00:28:48.060 they're not so smart

00:28:49.240 believe it or not

00:28:50.440 the hoi polloi

00:28:51.260 the proletariat

00:28:52.120 the masses of Americans

00:28:53.500 are usually

00:28:55.160 a little bit cleverer

00:28:56.340 a little bit smarter

00:28:57.120 a little bit wiser

00:28:57.920 a little bit more knowledgeable

00:28:58.920 than those

00:28:59.960 self-appointed elites

00:29:01.080 they know

00:29:02.060 what guns are for

00:29:03.080 they know why they have guns

00:29:04.240 they know

00:29:04.640 why they have

00:29:05.580 a second amendment

00:29:07.140 and the issue

00:29:08.640 is not

00:29:09.500 rifle regulations

00:29:11.120 we've had rifle regulations

00:29:12.380 before

00:29:12.840 we'll have rifle regulations

00:29:14.280 again

00:29:14.680 I don't favor

00:29:16.120 most rifle regulations

00:29:17.320 I think most of them

00:29:18.140 are unconstitutional

00:29:19.020 that's a fair matter

00:29:20.540 for public debate

00:29:21.420 the issue here

00:29:22.760 is the mandatory buyback

00:29:24.420 people know

00:29:25.400 their constitutional rights

00:29:26.760 people do not

00:29:28.160 want the government

00:29:29.500 to come in

00:29:30.120 and steal

00:29:30.760 their property

00:29:31.760 people do not want

00:29:32.840 the government

00:29:33.220 to come in

00:29:33.740 kick in the door

00:29:34.400 and take away

00:29:35.280 their right

00:29:35.920 to defend themselves

00:29:37.140 that is a

00:29:38.020 massive overreach

00:29:39.620 it's a massive overreach

00:29:40.880 for the candidates

00:29:41.540 who are pushing it

00:29:42.600 and obviously

00:29:43.260 it would be a massive

00:29:43.920 overreach for the government

00:29:44.920 and you don't need

00:29:45.740 to be a gun enthusiast

00:29:46.860 to oppose that

00:29:48.200 I mean it's

00:29:49.500 it's the same thing

00:29:50.300 of Trump in California

00:29:51.700 I mean somehow

00:29:52.500 the left is making

00:29:53.920 even Donald Trump

00:29:55.380 appealing to many liberals

00:29:57.040 in California

00:29:57.760 even many liberals

00:29:59.340 in Hollywood

00:29:59.820 called out

00:30:00.440 Will and Grace

00:30:01.480 Debra Messing

00:30:02.180 and Eric McCormick

00:30:02.900 for calling for a blacklist

00:30:05.100 many liberals

00:30:06.160 in California

00:30:06.880 hate the homelessness

00:30:08.080 crisis

00:30:08.820 because of democratic

00:30:10.060 mismanagement

00:30:10.720 in that city

00:30:11.300 many liberals

00:30:12.380 in California

00:30:12.960 hate the drug epidemic

00:30:14.320 and the needles

00:30:14.840 on the street

00:30:15.360 and the public defecation

00:30:16.420 you don't need

00:30:19.000 to be a conservative

00:30:19.720 to oppose

00:30:20.460 public defecation

00:30:22.160 I think that's

00:30:23.120 it's an issue

00:30:23.620 that crosses party lines

00:30:24.880 left right and center

00:30:25.760 you can oppose that

00:30:26.620 it's the same thing

00:30:27.940 with these guys

00:30:28.380 you don't need to be

00:30:28.880 a rock ribbed conservative

00:30:29.900 a republican

00:30:30.760 a gun owner

00:30:31.620 a gun nut

00:30:32.260 like they call us

00:30:33.320 to oppose

00:30:35.220 the government

00:30:35.720 coming in

00:30:36.260 and stealing your property

00:30:37.200 and taking away

00:30:37.820 your constitutional rights

00:30:38.920 and the more

00:30:39.840 they keep this up

00:30:40.780 the better republican

00:30:41.900 chances are

00:30:42.560 in 2020

00:30:43.440 the more they keep

00:30:44.500 this up

00:30:44.940 the more that

00:30:45.640 silent majority

00:30:46.460 or at least

00:30:47.080 that silent plurality

00:30:48.160 sits there and says

00:30:48.940 no

00:30:49.280 this is too far

00:30:50.680 I can't let this happen

00:30:51.620 I don't like the mean tweets

00:30:52.620 but I'm going to have

00:30:53.160 to vote for that guy

00:30:53.900 we actually got some

00:30:55.880 even more good news

00:30:57.180 on the culture

00:30:58.280 this week

00:30:58.700 so there's some good news

00:31:00.540 and there's some bad news

00:31:01.200 we'll start with the good news

00:31:02.020 first

00:31:02.280 the number of abortions

00:31:04.980 in the United States

00:31:07.760 has fallen to the lowest level

00:31:09.880 since 1973

00:31:12.060 we will examine

00:31:13.200 why that is

00:31:14.840 we will examine

00:31:15.800 because there's

00:31:16.240 there's a good reason

00:31:17.380 why there is

00:31:17.800 there's kind of a bad reason

00:31:18.860 as to why that's happening

00:31:20.060 but we may be turning

00:31:21.740 a corner on abortion

00:31:22.500 we'll get to that

00:31:23.000 then some bad news

00:31:23.700 for criminal justice

00:31:24.540 from the New York Times

00:31:25.680 to Pope Francis

00:31:26.400 sometimes it's difficult

00:31:27.440 to tell the difference

00:31:28.140 between those two things

00:31:29.000 and then

00:31:29.880 an embarrassing report

00:31:31.900 on millennials

00:31:32.440 why because today's

00:31:33.400 a day that ends

00:31:33.880 and why

00:31:34.200 they seem to come out

00:31:34.900 every single day

00:31:35.420 but you got to go

00:31:36.000 to dailywire.com

00:31:36.900 10 bucks a month

00:31:37.740 $100 for an annual membership

00:31:39.160 you get me

00:31:40.000 you get the Andrew Klavan show

00:31:41.120 you get the Ben Shapiro show

00:31:42.220 you get Desk Questions

00:31:43.080 in the mailbag

00:31:43.720 that's going to be

00:31:44.560 coming up tomorrow

00:31:45.140 so make sure you get

00:31:45.740 your questions in

00:31:46.400 you get Another Kingdom

00:31:47.740 which we're recording now

00:31:48.880 and it's super cool

00:31:49.860 the story is great

00:31:50.820 I think the third season

00:31:52.480 is actually better

00:31:53.200 than the first two

00:31:53.980 you get all that

00:31:54.940 and you will get

00:31:56.340 your Leftist Tears Tumblr

00:31:57.260 and you're going to need

00:31:57.960 that Leftist Tears Tumblr

00:31:59.040 you're going to need

00:31:59.620 a 15 million Leftist Tears

00:32:01.100 coming out of California

00:32:02.020 in just the past few days

00:32:03.000 go over to the Daily Wire

00:32:04.720 so that you don't drown

00:32:06.020 we will be right back

00:32:07.060 some really great news

00:32:19.300 on the abortion front

00:32:20.940 this week

00:32:21.340 just after that awful

00:32:23.100 story came out

00:32:24.420 about the abortionist

00:32:25.920 who had 2,000 baby body parts

00:32:28.680 found at his home

00:32:29.720 that was pretty gruesome

00:32:31.580 and grisly

00:32:31.980 we get a report

00:32:33.520 from the Guttmacher Institute

00:32:34.540 which is a pro-abortion institute

00:32:36.520 it's affiliated with

00:32:37.340 Planned Parenthood

00:32:38.060 they are showing

00:32:39.360 that the number of abortions

00:32:40.760 in the United States

00:32:41.480 has fallen to the lowest level

00:32:43.280 since 1973

00:32:45.300 so what they found

00:32:47.940 is that in 2017

00:32:49.360 that's the most recent year

00:32:50.400 they got the numbers for

00:32:51.220 there were 862,000 abortions

00:32:54.140 in the United States

00:32:54.900 now that number

00:32:55.700 is still

00:32:56.900 so horrifying

00:32:59.080 I mean

00:33:00.140 862,000

00:33:03.340 babies

00:33:04.440 human

00:33:05.640 persons

00:33:06.740 cute little lives

00:33:08.340 snuffed out

00:33:09.960 at the behest

00:33:11.620 of their own

00:33:12.460 mothers

00:33:13.020 by so-called

00:33:14.480 doctors

00:33:15.200 whose job it is

00:33:16.840 to heal

00:33:17.520 and help people

00:33:18.360 and who instead

00:33:19.260 are using forceps

00:33:20.480 and vacuums

00:33:21.460 to murder them

00:33:22.780 en masse

00:33:23.560 I don't want it

00:33:25.560 to sound like

00:33:26.180 this is too rosy

00:33:27.360 a story here

00:33:28.100 862,000 abortions

00:33:30.460 in the United States

00:33:31.260 is 862,000

00:33:33.560 too many abortions 1.00

00:33:35.180 still

00:33:36.280 that is down

00:33:38.320 from a previous report

00:33:40.180 from the Guttmacher Institute

00:33:41.080 from 2014

00:33:41.860 showing

00:33:43.060 926,000

00:33:45.980 abortions

00:33:46.980 so you're down

00:33:48.120 about 60,000 abortions

00:33:50.080 in just

00:33:51.300 three years

00:33:52.000 that's pretty good

00:33:52.760 and actually

00:33:54.100 there were over

00:33:54.940 a million abortions

00:33:55.900 counted in 2011

00:33:57.220 so the number

00:33:58.360 is decreasing

00:33:59.260 I mean

00:33:59.620 that's pretty good

00:34:00.580 if you can save

00:34:01.080 150,000 babies

00:34:02.260 a year

00:34:02.680 it's a good thing

00:34:05.340 that's worth

00:34:05.880 celebrating

00:34:06.460 Guttmacher is also

00:34:08.520 by the way

00:34:08.900 the only entity

00:34:10.240 that tries to count

00:34:11.460 all of these abortions 0.99

00:34:12.220 in the United States

00:34:13.000 and makes inquiries

00:34:14.300 of the private

00:34:15.080 abortionists

00:34:15.780 so this is pretty

00:34:17.160 reliable data

00:34:18.920 it's at least

00:34:19.660 the best data

00:34:20.140 that we have

00:34:20.820 why are abortions

00:34:24.000 decreasing?

00:34:25.460 part of the reason

00:34:26.440 they're decreasing

00:34:27.080 is actually

00:34:27.720 that there are

00:34:28.120 fewer pregnancies

00:34:28.860 so I guess

00:34:29.580 that's not

00:34:30.020 great news

00:34:30.920 I mean

00:34:31.240 we have a dying

00:34:31.900 population

00:34:32.540 we're well below

00:34:33.740 replacement rate

00:34:34.640 right now

00:34:35.080 for the American

00:34:35.580 population

00:34:36.220 you need about

00:34:36.800 2.1 babies

00:34:38.540 per couple

00:34:39.120 and we're at

00:34:39.840 about 1.7

00:34:40.660 so we're still

00:34:41.920 in a tough situation

00:34:43.120 and this has effects

00:34:44.000 not just obviously

00:34:44.740 on the people

00:34:46.280 and not just

00:34:46.860 on the health

00:34:47.240 of the country

00:34:47.740 but it's one

00:34:48.640 of the reasons

00:34:49.020 for instance

00:34:49.400 why we rely

00:34:50.100 so heavily

00:34:50.640 on immigration

00:34:51.320 is our economy

00:34:52.440 would likely

00:34:53.060 collapse

00:34:53.560 if we totally

00:34:54.580 cut off

00:34:54.940 immigration now

00:34:55.700 we have to

00:34:56.160 import

00:34:56.780 well over

00:34:57.480 a million people

00:34:58.040 a year

00:34:58.400 legally

00:34:59.280 and then

00:34:59.920 another million

00:35:00.580 people a year

00:35:01.160 illegally

00:35:01.620 if we just

00:35:02.140 cut out

00:35:02.460 the abortion

00:35:02.940 and got our

00:35:03.660 birth rate

00:35:04.040 back up

00:35:04.500 I mean

00:35:04.680 the numbers

00:35:05.000 work out

00:35:05.360 almost perfectly

00:35:06.020 we would be

00:35:06.600 at replacement

00:35:07.100 rate

00:35:07.420 and the need

00:35:08.580 for immigration

00:35:09.580 not

00:35:09.880 obviously

00:35:10.620 we'd still

00:35:11.020 debate

00:35:11.300 whether

00:35:11.840 certain immigration

00:35:12.840 levels are desirable

00:35:14.060 or beneficial

00:35:15.060 to the country

00:35:15.600 but the need

00:35:17.140 for it

00:35:17.700 would disappear

00:35:19.320 overnight

00:35:19.860 almost exactly

00:35:20.780 so that is

00:35:22.100 bad news

00:35:22.640 still good news

00:35:24.200 that we're

00:35:24.700 killing fewer

00:35:25.160 babies

00:35:25.500 and I think

00:35:26.240 we're turning

00:35:26.640 a corner on this

00:35:27.340 I think we're

00:35:27.640 turning a corner

00:35:28.200 on this issue

00:35:28.780 I was hosting

00:35:29.520 Ben's radio show

00:35:30.260 yesterday

00:35:30.600 and I talked

00:35:30.940 to Abby Johnson

00:35:31.760 who is a former

00:35:33.060 Planned Parenthood

00:35:33.860 staffer

00:35:34.700 who is rising up

00:35:35.520 the ranks

00:35:35.900 and then she saw

00:35:37.160 an abortion

00:35:37.640 on an ultrasound

00:35:38.360 and she instantly

00:35:39.660 became a pro-life

00:35:40.420 activist

00:35:41.140 and advocate

00:35:42.220 she left

00:35:42.760 Planned Parenthood

00:35:43.200 now she's one 0.99

00:35:43.820 of the biggest

00:35:44.220 pro-life voices

00:35:45.380 in the country

00:35:46.120 seeing that

00:35:48.940 ultrasound

00:35:49.520 I think

00:35:50.440 is

00:35:51.220 helping to reduce

00:35:52.740 the number of

00:35:53.360 abortions in the

00:35:53.940 country

00:35:54.200 you can see it

00:35:55.440 and it's not just

00:35:56.080 a little black

00:35:56.640 and white blob

00:35:57.440 you can see the

00:35:58.500 baby in three

00:35:59.300 dimensions

00:35:59.820 really early on

00:36:01.020 you can just

00:36:01.920 tell

00:36:02.360 that

00:36:03.320 is

00:36:04.080 a baby

00:36:04.780 that

00:36:05.820 looks like

00:36:06.780 a baby

00:36:07.040 now it's not

00:36:07.600 even an argument

00:36:08.260 I mean

00:36:08.620 we should know

00:36:09.500 that abortion 1.00

00:36:09.920 is wrong

00:36:10.460 and abortion

00:36:10.920 is evil

00:36:11.280 just

00:36:11.800 using our own

00:36:13.300 faculties of reason

00:36:14.260 and our own logic

00:36:15.120 a person's a person

00:36:16.500 no matter how small

00:36:17.420 we know it's living

00:36:18.260 we know it's human

00:36:19.020 you shouldn't kill

00:36:19.940 innocent human life

00:36:20.860 simple enough

00:36:22.540 but

00:36:22.880 the optics matter

00:36:24.840 seeing is believing

00:36:26.040 and when you see

00:36:27.340 that that's a baby

00:36:28.060 something stirs

00:36:29.260 in you emotionally

00:36:29.960 and you say

00:36:30.560 I can't kill that

00:36:32.000 I should not kill that

00:36:33.380 I don't even really

00:36:34.340 like babies

00:36:34.860 you know

00:36:35.160 I'm not like a warm

00:36:36.040 and fuzzy guy

00:36:36.680 exactly

00:36:37.120 I don't like puppies

00:36:37.780 I don't like babies

00:36:38.420 that much

00:36:38.780 I like some babies

00:36:40.080 but not all babies

00:36:40.840 but

00:36:41.380 when someone hands you

00:36:42.740 a baby

00:36:43.040 you're going to

00:36:43.320 hold a baby

00:36:43.780 you just feel

00:36:45.580 this natural

00:36:46.500 care for it

00:36:47.320 you want to

00:36:47.600 protect it

00:36:48.140 you certainly

00:36:48.780 don't want to

00:36:49.520 kill it

00:36:49.820 that

00:36:50.440 is

00:36:51.220 some of the good

00:36:51.920 news on the

00:36:52.320 culture

00:36:52.520 seeing is

00:36:52.960 believing

00:36:53.300 I saw this

00:36:54.300 headline from

00:36:55.120 the Guardian

00:36:55.580 the British

00:36:56.040 newspaper

00:36:56.500 and

00:36:57.680 the headline

00:36:58.340 said

00:36:58.720 unborn babies

00:37:00.380 exposed

00:37:01.260 to toxic

00:37:02.620 air pollution

00:37:03.580 and this

00:37:05.240 was a really

00:37:05.680 telling headline

00:37:06.880 unborn babies

00:37:08.660 exposed to

00:37:09.380 toxic air

00:37:09.900 pollution

00:37:10.300 except the

00:37:11.420 mainstream media

00:37:12.100 left wing

00:37:12.540 papers

00:37:12.980 don't

00:37:13.660 tend to refer

00:37:15.260 to unborn

00:37:15.680 babies

00:37:16.060 do they

00:37:16.400 what do they

00:37:16.720 refer to

00:37:17.260 fetuses

00:37:18.400 embryos

00:37:20.040 clump of

00:37:21.760 cells

00:37:22.400 they don't

00:37:23.160 refer to the

00:37:23.600 unborn babies

00:37:24.120 which is what

00:37:24.560 they are

00:37:24.880 they don't

00:37:25.780 refer to the

00:37:26.180 unborn babies

00:37:26.740 when they're

00:37:27.040 talking about

00:37:27.500 whether or not

00:37:27.860 we should kill

00:37:28.360 them

00:37:28.540 they only

00:37:29.160 refer to

00:37:29.600 the unborn

00:37:30.000 babies

00:37:30.440 to pull

00:37:31.240 on our

00:37:31.520 heart strings

00:37:32.140 while we're

00:37:32.800 talking about

00:37:33.500 global warming

00:37:34.560 which is a

00:37:35.060 leftist policy

00:37:35.900 issue

00:37:36.680 then they talk

00:37:38.320 about it

00:37:38.700 you know

00:37:38.920 you never hear

00:37:39.560 when some

00:37:40.600 princess in the

00:37:41.360 UK is about

00:37:42.480 to have a

00:37:42.820 baby

00:37:43.100 then it's

00:37:43.940 the royal

00:37:44.280 baby

00:37:44.600 it's not

00:37:44.960 the royal

00:37:45.240 clump of

00:37:45.620 cells

00:37:45.820 it's not

00:37:46.080 the royal

00:37:46.380 fetus

00:37:46.820 it's the

00:37:47.920 baby

00:37:48.200 because we

00:37:48.560 know it's

00:37:49.060 a baby

00:37:49.420 but when

00:37:50.620 it's

00:37:50.780 politically

00:37:51.080 convenient

00:37:51.480 for them

00:37:51.860 they hide

00:37:52.420 it

00:37:52.600 they can't

00:37:53.220 really hide

00:37:53.640 it so much

00:37:54.220 anymore

00:37:54.740 it's becoming

00:37:55.880 clearer

00:37:56.320 that those

00:37:57.200 euphemisms

00:37:57.860 you know

00:37:58.220 all those

00:37:59.000 deceptive

00:37:59.820 slogans

00:38:00.480 that the

00:38:00.820 left uses

00:38:01.340 to try to

00:38:02.340 push their

00:38:02.680 fantasies

00:38:03.240 on the

00:38:03.560 silent

00:38:03.780 majority

00:38:04.120 of people

00:38:04.560 who get

00:38:05.060 it

00:38:05.180 who know

00:38:05.760 who understand

00:38:06.560 what's

00:38:07.020 going on

00:38:07.660 those euphemisms

00:38:08.740 are cracking

00:38:09.280 they're falling

00:38:09.780 apart

00:38:10.140 and we're

00:38:10.980 looking and

00:38:11.380 we're saying

00:38:11.760 no that's

00:38:12.480 a baby

00:38:12.740 shouldn't do

00:38:13.280 that

00:38:13.520 you can

00:38:13.980 scream 0.99

00:38:14.320 you can

00:38:14.600 shout

00:38:14.840 your abortion

00:38:15.360 you can

00:38:15.620 have

00:38:15.740 Alyssa

00:38:16.000 Milano

00:38:16.440 screech

00:38:17.120 all she

00:38:17.400 wants

00:38:17.620 on Twitter

00:38:18.040 you're not

00:38:18.960 going to

00:38:19.180 convince me

00:38:19.680 to disbelieve

00:38:20.340 my own

00:38:20.880 eyes

00:38:21.420 that's some

00:38:22.060 good news

00:38:22.360 on the

00:38:22.560 culture

00:38:22.760 some bad

00:38:23.100 news

00:38:23.260 on the

00:38:23.460 culture

00:38:23.780 coming from

00:38:25.000 the New York

00:38:25.360 Times

00:38:25.740 and from

00:38:26.080 Pope Francis

00:38:26.740 and I sort

00:38:27.760 of repeat

00:38:28.080 myself

00:38:28.420 when I say

00:38:28.880 that

00:38:29.100 this is

00:38:29.680 on the

00:38:29.880 question

00:38:30.220 of life

00:38:30.760 imprisonment

00:38:32.020 the left

00:38:34.040 is turning

00:38:34.580 against life

00:38:35.340 imprisonment

00:38:35.840 the left

00:38:36.280 already

00:38:36.580 opposes

00:38:36.980 the death

00:38:37.320 penalty

00:38:37.700 almost

00:38:38.340 uniformly

00:38:39.140 many

00:38:39.740 conservatives

00:38:40.180 now even

00:38:40.680 oppose the

00:38:41.120 death

00:38:41.260 penalty

00:38:41.600 now

00:38:42.860 they're

00:38:43.220 moving

00:38:43.560 to opposing

00:38:44.440 life

00:38:44.940 imprisonment

00:38:45.640 and I

00:38:46.120 only bring

00:38:46.700 up this

00:38:47.000 story

00:38:47.360 in all

00:38:48.480 of my

00:38:48.820 humility

00:38:49.200 to say

00:38:50.240 I told

00:38:50.760 you so

00:38:51.140 I called

00:38:51.780 it

00:38:51.920 I knew

00:38:52.320 this would

00:38:52.680 happen

00:38:53.000 one of

00:38:53.580 the

00:38:53.680 arguments

00:38:54.060 against

00:38:54.360 the

00:38:54.540 death

00:38:54.700 penalty

00:38:55.020 there are

00:38:55.660 a lot

00:38:55.840 of

00:38:55.940 incoherent

00:38:56.400 arguments

00:38:56.780 you hear

00:38:57.320 people

00:38:57.640 say

00:38:58.040 we need

00:38:59.160 to get

00:38:59.380 rid

00:38:59.500 of

00:38:59.580 the

00:38:59.680 death

00:38:59.820 penalty

00:39:00.140 because

00:39:00.700 it's

00:39:01.700 better

00:39:03.360 it would

00:39:04.660 be better

00:39:05.140 to lock

00:39:05.900 the person

00:39:06.260 up

00:39:06.460 in

00:39:06.880 jail

00:39:07.440 forever

00:39:07.800 it gives

00:39:08.440 them hope

00:39:08.980 it gives

00:39:09.420 them

00:39:09.700 their life

00:39:10.800 it doesn't

00:39:11.100 take their

00:39:11.340 life away

00:39:11.740 then you hear

00:39:12.420 people say

00:39:13.020 we need

00:39:13.840 to get

00:39:14.020 rid

00:39:14.120 of the

00:39:14.260 death

00:39:14.400 penalty

00:39:14.680 because

00:39:15.140 the

00:39:15.400 death

00:39:15.560 penalty

00:39:15.840 is

00:39:15.980 too

00:39:16.160 good

00:39:16.400 for

00:39:16.560 them

00:39:16.800 life

00:39:17.520 imprisonment

00:39:18.080 is

00:39:18.200 way

00:39:18.440 worse

00:39:18.720 and we

00:39:23.000 but the

00:39:25.340 argument

00:39:25.940 that we

00:39:26.820 need

00:39:27.160 to

00:39:27.480 get

00:39:28.000 rid

00:39:28.280 of

00:39:28.500 the

00:39:28.720 death

00:39:28.880 penalty

00:39:29.240 in

00:39:29.760 the

00:39:29.920 service

00:39:30.320 of

00:39:30.600 justice

00:39:31.160 was

00:39:31.820 never

00:39:32.200 a

00:39:32.860 good

00:39:33.000 argument

00:39:33.380 the

00:39:34.420 reason

00:39:34.780 people

00:39:35.180 are

00:39:35.340 clamoring

00:39:35.720 against

00:39:36.040 the

00:39:36.200 death

00:39:36.360 penalty

00:39:36.640 is

00:39:36.800 because

00:39:36.960 they

00:39:37.100 don't

00:39:37.420 understand

00:39:38.080 justice

00:39:38.540 they

00:39:38.800 think

00:39:39.100 that

00:39:39.240 the

00:39:39.340 criminal

00:39:39.540 justice

00:39:39.820 system

00:39:40.220 is

00:39:40.620 only

00:39:40.820 about

00:39:41.060 rehabilitation

00:39:41.680 rehabilitation

00:39:42.620 is

00:39:43.140 only

00:39:43.360 one

00:39:43.600 of

00:39:43.720 the

00:39:43.840 three

00:39:44.340 reasons

00:39:45.120 for

00:39:45.480 the

00:39:45.600 criminal

00:39:45.840 justice

00:39:46.180 system

00:39:46.580 and

00:39:47.140 it

00:39:47.260 is

00:39:47.380 by

00:39:47.540 far

00:39:47.860 the

00:39:48.020 least

00:39:48.240 important

00:39:48.600 one

00:39:48.940 the

00:39:50.240 three

00:39:50.460 reasons

00:39:50.780 are

00:39:50.920 rehabilitation

00:39:51.400 sure

00:39:52.000 also

00:39:53.360 deterrence

00:39:54.020 deterring

00:39:54.420 other

00:39:54.580 criminals

00:39:55.000 and

00:39:55.520 most

00:39:55.760 importantly

00:39:56.320 retribution

00:39:57.800 punishment

00:39:59.200 for

00:40:00.240 the

00:40:00.580 crime

00:40:01.080 justice

00:40:02.200 itself

00:40:03.420 that's

00:40:04.860 the

00:40:04.960 most

00:40:05.140 important

00:40:05.500 one

00:40:05.820 look

00:40:06.280 we

00:40:06.400 could

00:40:06.520 all

00:40:06.640 use

00:40:06.800 a

00:40:06.900 little

00:40:07.000 rehabilitation

00:40:07.520 okay

00:40:08.020 we

00:40:08.580 all

00:40:08.760 have

00:40:08.940 personal

00:40:09.360 behaviors

00:40:09.780 that

00:40:09.960 we

00:40:10.060 could

00:40:10.220 amend

00:40:10.560 should

00:40:11.640 we

00:40:11.780 all

00:40:11.920 go

00:40:12.020 to

00:40:12.140 prisons

00:40:12.440 should

00:40:12.640 we

00:40:12.720 all

00:40:12.820 go

00:40:12.900 to

00:40:13.000 rehabilitation

00:40:13.540 correctional

00:40:14.500 centers

00:40:14.820 no

00:40:15.320 of course

00:40:15.740 not

00:40:15.980 there

00:40:16.720 would

00:40:16.820 be

00:40:16.940 a

00:40:17.100 mass

00:40:17.440 public

00:40:17.800 outcry

00:40:18.240 if

00:40:18.440 you

00:40:18.540 took

00:40:18.760 your

00:40:19.080 brother

00:40:19.560 who's

00:40:19.780 annoying

00:40:20.040 you

00:40:20.280 and

00:40:20.400 saying

00:40:20.600 oh

00:40:20.760 we

00:40:20.860 got

00:40:20.920 to

00:40:20.980 get

00:40:21.100 you

00:40:21.180 to

00:40:21.240 that

00:40:21.360 correctional

00:40:21.840 center

00:40:22.060 so you

00:40:22.560 get

00:40:22.660 a little

00:40:22.820 more

00:40:23.020 correct

00:40:23.400 so you

00:40:23.620 get

00:40:23.720 rehabilitated

00:40:24.380 you

00:40:25.340 go to

00:40:25.560 prison

00:40:25.780 because you

00:40:26.040 committed

00:40:26.360 crimes

00:40:26.940 you

00:40:27.720 go to

00:40:28.000 prison

00:40:28.280 as a

00:40:28.800 punishment

00:40:29.260 and as

00:40:30.600 a way

00:40:31.040 to

00:40:31.660 in some

00:40:32.480 way

00:40:32.760 restore

00:40:33.420 and exact

00:40:34.260 justice

00:40:35.400 justice

00:40:36.220 is the

00:40:36.740 purpose

00:40:37.080 and so

00:40:37.880 if you

00:40:38.120 get rid

00:40:38.640 of

00:40:38.880 the

00:40:39.520 death

00:40:39.680 penalty

00:40:39.940 you're

00:40:40.160 not

00:40:40.320 going

00:40:40.460 to

00:40:40.540 have

00:40:40.620 a

00:40:40.720 clearer

00:40:41.000 sense

00:40:41.320 of

00:40:41.460 justice

00:40:41.800 you're

00:40:42.380 going

00:40:42.520 to

00:40:42.600 have

00:40:42.700 a

00:40:42.780 less

00:40:42.920 clear

00:40:43.140 sense

00:40:43.380 and

00:40:43.520 that's

00:40:43.740 what's

00:40:43.900 happening

00:40:44.140 with

00:40:44.560 life

00:40:44.860 imprisonment

00:40:45.440 so the

00:40:45.660 New York

00:40:45.880 Times

00:40:46.120 came out

00:40:46.560 with this

00:40:47.140 piece

00:40:47.340 a little

00:40:47.520 while ago

00:40:47.900 they said

00:40:48.140 how would

00:40:48.640 you spend

00:40:49.000 a life

00:40:49.280 sentence

00:40:49.680 for one

00:40:50.600 inmate

00:40:50.920 a new

00:40:51.180 federal law

00:40:51.700 gave hope

00:40:52.140 where there

00:40:52.520 had been

00:40:52.800 none

00:40:53.080 imagine

00:40:53.820 at the

00:40:54.080 age

00:40:54.300 of 28

00:40:54.780 you're

00:40:55.040 told

00:40:55.280 that

00:40:55.460 you're

00:40:55.620 going

00:40:55.700 to

00:40:55.740 spend

00:40:55.880 the

00:40:56.020 rest

00:40:56.180 of

00:40:56.280 your

00:40:56.380 life

00:40:56.580 in

00:40:56.700 prison

00:40:56.940 with

00:40:57.380 no

00:40:57.580 chance

00:40:57.920 of

00:40:58.040 release

00:40:58.400 would

00:40:59.040 you

00:40:59.260 what

00:40:59.820 would

00:40:59.960 you

00:41:00.060 do

00:41:00.200 with

00:41:00.340 all

00:41:00.460 that

00:41:00.640 time

00:41:00.880 there's

00:41:01.120 no

00:41:01.280 shame

00:41:01.580 in

00:41:01.780 admitting

00:41:02.080 you'd

00:41:02.640 want

00:41:02.800 to

00:41:02.940 throw

00:41:03.120 in

00:41:03.260 the

00:41:03.360 towel

00:41:03.640 it's

00:41:04.140 a

00:41:04.240 rational

00:41:04.640 reaction

00:41:05.100 to

00:41:05.300 a

00:41:05.460 hopeless

00:41:05.820 situation

00:41:06.500 remember

00:41:07.020 we were

00:41:07.360 told

00:41:07.580 that

00:41:07.880 the

00:41:08.000 death

00:41:08.160 penalty

00:41:08.420 was

00:41:08.620 hopeless

00:41:08.940 life

00:41:09.380 in prison

00:41:09.720 gave

00:41:09.980 you

00:41:10.100 hope

00:41:10.360 now

00:41:10.780 we're

00:41:10.980 told

00:41:11.320 no

00:41:11.620 that's

00:41:11.900 hopeless

00:41:12.160 too

00:41:12.460 pretty soon

00:41:13.040 we're

00:41:13.160 going to be

00:41:13.380 told

00:41:13.560 that if

00:41:13.760 you have

00:41:13.900 to sleep

00:41:14.300 it

00:41:14.400 off

00:41:14.600 one

00:41:14.800 night

00:41:14.960 in

00:41:15.120 jail

00:41:15.300 that's

00:41:15.560 hopeless

00:41:15.840 too

00:41:16.180 the

00:41:16.800 Times

00:41:17.000 goes

00:41:17.220 on

00:41:17.460 why

00:41:17.860 bother

00:41:18.100 working

00:41:18.460 to

00:41:18.620 improve

00:41:18.900 yourself

00:41:19.300 learning

00:41:19.800 something

00:41:20.100 new

00:41:20.340 or

00:41:20.460 making

00:41:20.720 amends

00:41:21.060 if

00:41:21.220 nothing

00:41:21.560 you

00:41:21.780 do

00:41:21.920 will

00:41:22.080 ever

00:41:22.260 make

00:41:22.460 a

00:41:22.580 difference

00:41:22.900 Gary

00:41:23.440 Rines

00:41:23.820 now

00:41:24.000 46

00:41:24.460 had

00:41:24.680 every

00:41:24.900 reason

00:41:25.180 to

00:41:25.320 choose

00:41:25.520 that

00:41:25.740 route

00:41:26.000 after

00:41:26.540 receiving

00:41:26.920 a

00:41:27.080 mandatory

00:41:27.340 sentence

00:41:27.820 of

00:41:28.000 life

00:41:28.160 without

00:41:28.380 parole

00:41:28.780 and

00:41:29.720 then

00:41:29.840 it

00:41:29.940 goes

00:41:30.080 on

00:41:30.300 and

00:41:30.380 talks

00:41:30.580 about

00:41:30.760 how

00:41:30.880 he's

00:41:31.000 been

00:41:31.100 a

00:41:31.200 good

00:41:31.340 prisoner

00:41:31.660 and

00:41:31.840 he's

00:41:34.420 like

00:41:34.580 a

00:41:34.680 really

00:41:34.820 nice

00:41:35.040 guy

00:41:35.320 and

00:41:36.340 they

00:41:36.940 conclude

00:41:37.300 this

00:41:37.520 summer

00:41:37.760 all

00:41:37.920 those

00:41:38.060 years

00:41:38.240 of

00:41:38.400 work

00:41:39.200 paid

00:41:39.540 off

00:41:39.880 at

00:41:40.340 a

00:41:40.440 hearing

00:41:40.700 on

00:41:40.920 July

00:41:41.180 24th

00:41:41.780 in

00:41:41.860 Harrisburg

00:41:50.460 which

00:41:50.740 includes

00:41:51.080 nearly

00:41:51.440 three

00:41:51.760 years

00:41:52.080 of

00:41:53.020 pretrial

00:41:53.520 detention

00:41:53.980 that

00:41:55.360 was

00:41:55.480 the

00:41:55.600 New

00:41:55.720 York

00:41:55.880 Times

00:41:56.220 Pope

00:41:56.480 Francis

00:41:56.900 comes

00:41:57.180 out

00:41:57.400 says

00:41:57.620 basically

00:41:58.020 the

00:41:58.200 same

00:41:58.380 thing

00:41:58.560 the

00:41:58.760 message

00:41:59.020 from

00:41:59.180 the

00:41:59.300 Times

00:41:59.500 is

00:41:59.660 clear

00:41:59.840 we need

00:42:00.100 to

00:42:00.160 get rid

00:42:00.400 of

00:42:00.500 life

00:42:00.680 imprisonment

00:42:01.480 Pope

00:42:02.100 Francis

00:42:02.420 said it

00:42:02.760 even

00:42:02.980 more

00:42:03.400 clearly

00:42:03.740 Pope

00:42:04.000 Francis

00:42:04.300 came

00:42:04.580 out

00:42:04.800 and

00:42:05.200 he

00:42:05.360 said

00:42:05.760 it

00:42:06.260 is

00:42:06.380 up

00:42:06.500 to

00:42:06.620 every

00:42:06.840 society

00:42:07.280 to

00:42:07.480 ensure

00:42:07.740 that

00:42:07.940 the

00:42:08.120 penalty

00:42:08.640 does

00:42:08.980 not

00:42:09.220 compromise

00:42:09.680 the

00:42:09.920 right

00:42:10.120 to

00:42:10.280 hope

00:42:10.580 that

00:42:11.200 prospects

00:42:11.840 for

00:42:12.140 reconciliation

00:42:12.620 and

00:42:13.020 reintegration

00:42:13.640 are

00:42:13.840 guaranteed

00:42:14.300 life

00:42:15.000 imprisonment

00:42:15.640 is not

00:42:16.140 the

00:42:16.340 solution

00:42:16.720 to

00:42:16.920 problems

00:42:17.420 I

00:42:17.920 repeat

00:42:18.340 life

00:42:18.980 imprisonment

00:42:19.520 is not

00:42:19.800 the

00:42:19.940 solution

00:42:20.220 to

00:42:20.380 problems

00:42:20.880 but

00:42:21.720 a

00:42:21.840 problem

00:42:22.220 to

00:42:22.640 be

00:42:22.800 solved

00:42:23.200 that

00:42:24.860 is

00:42:25.240 what

00:42:25.600 the

00:42:26.340 Pope

00:42:26.500 is

00:42:26.660 saying

00:42:26.780 this

00:42:26.940 is

00:42:27.040 the

00:42:27.160 same

00:42:27.340 Pope

00:42:27.560 who

00:42:27.920 came

00:42:28.160 out

00:42:28.280 against

00:42:28.480 the

00:42:28.620 death

00:42:28.780 penalty

00:42:29.120 just

00:42:29.680 a

00:42:29.800 few

00:42:29.920 months

00:42:30.180 ago

00:42:30.480 and

00:42:30.860 attempted

00:42:31.540 to

00:42:32.100 radically

00:42:32.740 change

00:42:33.340 2000

00:42:34.000 years

00:42:34.660 of

00:42:34.900 Catholic

00:42:35.220 moral

00:42:35.540 teaching

00:42:35.900 this

00:42:38.120 comes

00:42:38.840 from

00:42:39.300 a

00:42:39.620 fundamental

00:42:40.600 misunderstanding

00:42:41.720 of

00:42:42.320 justice

00:42:42.820 and

00:42:44.000 we're

00:42:44.160 talking

00:42:44.660 about

00:42:44.920 it

00:42:45.060 now

00:42:45.300 as

00:42:45.460 though

00:42:45.580 this

00:42:45.740 is

00:42:45.880 compassionate

00:42:46.440 I

00:42:47.380 mean

00:42:47.460 Joe

00:42:47.620 Biden

00:42:47.860 did

00:42:48.160 you hear

00:42:48.340 Joe

00:42:48.540 Biden

00:42:48.720 at the

00:42:48.900 debate

00:42:49.100 just

00:42:49.260 the

00:42:49.380 other

00:42:49.500 night

00:42:49.660 he

00:42:49.780 came

00:42:49.940 out

00:42:50.080 and

00:42:50.160 he

00:42:50.240 said

00:42:50.440 nonviolent

00:42:51.340 criminals

00:42:51.780 should

00:42:52.180 not

00:42:52.540 go

00:42:53.040 to

00:42:53.540 prison

00:42:53.840 here

00:42:54.020 he

00:42:54.120 is

00:42:54.320 nobody

00:42:55.140 should

00:42:55.600 be

00:42:55.760 in

00:42:55.940 jail

00:42:56.200 for

00:42:56.640 a

00:42:57.220 crime

00:42:57.660 what

00:42:58.520 does

00:42:58.640 that

00:42:58.820 mean

00:42:59.060 so

00:42:59.300 if

00:42:59.440 you

00:43:02.960 go

00:43:03.040 to

00:43:12.820 even

00:43:13.460 though

00:43:13.740 fraud

00:43:14.420 is

00:43:14.620 a

00:43:14.780 much

00:43:15.040 worse

00:43:15.740 crime

00:43:16.220 and

00:43:16.440 more

00:43:16.880 serious

00:43:17.260 sin

00:43:21.240 make

00:43:21.440 any

00:43:21.660 sense

00:43:22.020 it's

00:43:22.520 a

00:43:23.140 misunderstanding

00:43:23.780 of

00:43:24.220 justice

00:43:24.600 from

00:43:26.480 Times

00:43:26.820 a

00:43:28.080 fundamental

00:43:28.760 misunderstanding

00:43:29.460 of it

00:43:29.920 and

00:43:30.120 I

00:43:31.880 saw

00:43:32.340 the

00:43:32.560 rot

00:43:32.860 setting

00:43:33.200 in

00:43:35.460 a lot

00:43:35.820 of

00:43:36.920 penalty

00:43:37.200 too

00:43:37.500 I

00:43:38.660 don't

00:43:38.900 death

00:43:39.100 penalty

00:43:39.340 is

00:43:39.500 a

00:43:39.600 good

00:43:39.720 thing

00:43:39.920 it's

00:43:40.080 important

00:43:40.420 for

00:43:40.580 the

00:43:44.540 by

00:43:44.740 the

00:43:45.640 for

00:43:46.620 even

00:43:46.780 rehabilitation

00:43:47.340 hanging

00:43:48.160 concentrates

00:43:48.800 the

00:43:49.260 as

00:43:57.520 it

00:43:57.720 concentrates

00:43:58.280 his

00:43:58.420 mind

00:43:58.640 wonderfully

00:43:59.100 it

00:43:59.880 can

00:44:11.360 penalty

00:44:11.640 is

00:44:11.800 it

00:44:11.900 gives

00:44:12.100 us

00:44:12.260 a

00:44:12.400 sense

00:44:12.640 of

00:44:14.060 erodes

00:44:14.540 very

00:44:15.140 very

00:44:15.360 quickly

00:44:15.680 as you're

00:44:51.060 worse

00:44:51.780 news

00:44:52.880 though

00:44:53.100 it's

00:44:53.260 very

00:44:53.560 expected

00:44:54.140 millennials

00:44:55.160 are

00:44:56.380 bad

00:44:56.740 tippers

00:44:57.160 I'm

00:44:58.100 not

00:44:58.260 surprised

00:44:58.640 at

00:44:58.800 all

00:44:58.960 I

00:44:59.460 am

00:44:59.560 not

00:44:59.720 surprised

00:44:59.840 a

00:44:59.900 new

00:45:00.020 study

00:45:00.260 came

00:45:00.500 out

00:45:00.760 from

00:45:01.260 creditcards.com

00:45:02.740 finding

00:45:03.700 that in

00:45:04.160 general

00:45:04.500 men

00:45:04.880 and

00:45:05.140 millennials

00:45:05.520 are the

00:45:06.060 worst

00:45:06.440 tippers

00:45:07.140 now

00:45:08.200 I

00:45:08.920 was a

00:45:09.180 little

00:45:09.260 surprised

00:45:09.600 to find

00:45:09.860 out

00:45:09.960 that

00:45:10.060 men

00:45:10.260 are

00:45:10.380 worse

00:45:10.580 tippers

00:45:10.840 than

00:45:11.040 women 1.00

00:45:11.260 part

00:45:13.300 of

00:45:13.440 this

00:45:13.700 might

00:45:14.060 be

00:45:14.200 there

00:45:14.340 was

00:45:14.460 one

00:45:14.680 flaw

00:45:15.020 with

00:45:15.180 the

00:45:15.280 study

00:45:15.480 they

00:45:15.620 pointed

00:45:15.840 this

00:45:16.020 out

00:45:16.160 I

00:45:16.240 think

00:45:16.360 over

00:45:16.520 at

00:45:16.620 hot

00:45:16.800 air

00:45:16.980 which

00:45:17.500 is

00:45:17.660 that

00:45:17.960 they

00:45:19.440 did

00:45:19.700 it

00:45:19.800 just

00:45:19.940 based

00:45:20.140 on

00:45:20.280 credit

00:45:20.520 card

00:45:20.740 tips

00:45:28.260 to know

00:45:28.500 about

00:45:28.680 everything

00:45:28.960 and

00:45:29.460 two

00:45:29.640 because

00:45:29.860 sometimes

00:45:30.200 the

00:45:30.420 restaurants

00:45:30.740 themselves

00:45:31.140 go in

00:45:31.580 there

00:45:31.740 and

00:45:31.880 take

00:45:32.060 some

00:45:32.200 of

00:45:32.260 your

00:45:32.340 money

00:45:32.540 if

00:45:32.940 it's

00:45:33.060 on

00:45:33.180 credit

00:45:33.380 cards

00:45:33.600 but

00:45:34.540 millennials

00:45:35.660 don't

00:45:36.040 carry

00:45:36.280 cash

00:45:36.640 so I

00:45:37.240 think

00:45:37.440 with

00:45:37.600 millennials

00:45:37.940 it's

00:45:38.460 just

00:45:38.720 about

00:45:39.040 tipping

00:45:39.340 not

00:45:39.820 surprised

00:45:40.220 at

00:45:40.380 all

00:45:40.480 millennials

00:45:40.800 are

00:45:41.080 often

00:45:41.500 excoriated

00:45:43.040 as a

00:45:43.600 selfish

00:45:43.840 generation

00:45:44.640 and

00:45:45.520 all

00:45:46.040 just

00:45:46.720 obsessed

00:45:47.160 with

00:45:47.320 themselves

00:45:47.760 and

00:45:48.160 greedy

00:45:48.480 and

00:45:49.000 all

00:45:49.320 in it

00:45:49.560 for

00:45:49.700 themselves

00:45:50.100 and

00:45:51.080 also

00:45:52.160 broke

00:45:52.580 because

00:45:52.780 they have

00:45:52.940 a lot

00:45:53.100 of debt

00:45:53.440 and

00:45:54.460 this

00:45:54.600 would

00:45:54.760 seem

00:45:54.900 to

00:45:55.040 bear

00:45:55.180 that

00:45:55.360 out

00:45:55.580 I

00:45:56.440 just

00:45:56.840 would

00:45:57.020 like

00:45:57.300 for

00:45:57.520 any
