The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 427 - On Eating Babies (And Other Modest Proposals)

00:00:00.000 A constituent at an AOC town hall suggests eating babies to curb climate change.

00:00:05.300 While everyone is outraged at the remark, we examine what exactly is wrong with this modest

00:00:10.040 proposal and whether or not it's any worse than what we've heard from Democratic presidential

00:00:14.160 candidates. Then, Warren finds herself embroiled in a major sex scandal. No, I am not talking about

00:00:21.400 Jacob Wohl's accusation that Warren bedded a 20-something Marine. I'm not talking about that.

00:00:26.420 I am talking about Warren's latest lies about sex discrimination and how they fit in with a

00:00:32.700 broader pattern of biographical dishonesty. Finally, we prepare for a Supreme Court case

00:00:38.140 tomorrow that could determine the future of sex and gender identity in the United States.

00:00:43.820 And on that point of sex and gender identity and all of the social issues, the New York Times

00:00:48.080 finally runs openly honest fictional op-eds. At least they're honest. All that and more.

00:00:54.120 I'm Michael Knowles and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:00:56.420 I am about to give apparently a controversial opinion. So look, Media Matters, Sleeping Giants,

00:01:11.120 any of the left-wing operatives who watch this show, for my controversial opinions, here it is,

00:01:15.820 get ready. I don't think we should eat the babies. Okay, there I said it. And if it costs me my show,

00:01:24.100 so be it. But I don't think we should eat the babies. You're going to see a lot of headlines now,

00:01:30.380 but Knowles wants to destroy the climate because he won't eat the babies. Well, we're going to get

00:01:35.240 into this modest proposal for eating babies to stop climate change. But first, while we still have

00:01:40.260 them, I want to thank our wonderful sponsors over at NetSuite. It is very important if you are starting

00:01:47.100 a business, if you are growing a business, if you are working for a growing business.

00:01:52.760 You need to know your numbers. I've been involved in a lot of startup businesses, including this one

00:01:56.740 right here, the Daily Wire. It is so important. The biggest problem probably that growing businesses

00:02:02.140 have, I think this is a bigger problem than any of the others, is they have this hodgepodge of

00:02:07.760 business systems and they can't know their numbers. That's where NetSuite comes in very handy.

00:02:11.580 NetSuite by Oracle is the business management software that handles every aspect of your

00:02:17.340 business in an easy to use cloud platform. This gives you the visibility and control that you need

00:02:23.040 to grow. With NetSuite, you save time, you save money, and you save unneeded headaches. And by the

00:02:28.780 way, time is money. Again, people forget this when they're starting a business. Time is money, okay?

00:02:34.740 And so what they'll do is they'll have all these different business systems and one manages sales,

00:02:38.600 one does finance, one does accounting. None of them are talking to each other. You can't access

00:02:42.660 them all and you lose a lot of time and money. Don't make that mistake. NetSuite by Oracle,

00:03:26.160 They want to eat the babies. They want to eat the babies. This was a constituent at an AOC 1.00

00:03:34.200 town hall. They were talking about climate change and she offered her modest proposal

00:03:39.540 for how to really stop the impending climate crisis.

00:03:43.880 We're not going to be here for much long because of the climate crisis. We only have a few months left.

00:03:51.240 I love that you support the green deal, but it's not getting, you know, getting rid of fossil fuel. It's

00:03:57.000 not going to solve the problem fast enough. A Swedish professor saying, you know, we can eat dead people,

00:04:02.880 but that's not fast enough. So I think your next campaign slogan has to be this. We got to start

00:04:08.920 eating babies. We don't have enough time. There's too much CO2. All of you, you're, you know,

00:04:15.760 your pollutant, too much CO2. We have to start now, please. You are so great. I'm so happy that

00:04:23.080 you really support a nuclear deal, but it's not enough. You know, even if we would bomb Russia, 0.86

00:04:28.620 we still have too many people, too much pollution. So we have to get rid of the babies. That's a big 0.97

00:04:36.040 problem. Just stopping having babies is not enough. We need to eat the babies. And this is very serious.

00:04:42.460 Please give a response. Okay. So this is obviously a stunt. Some people are saying the woman is a 1.00

00:04:50.280 little kooky. Some people are saying it's just a political stunt that opposes AOC. The answer is

00:04:58.660 actually it's both of those things. This woman is a little kooky and this is a stunt and it is satire 1.00

00:05:03.640 and it's very, very good satire. The one report that is just a complete lie from the mainstream media,

00:05:10.160 some people are saying that this woman is conservative or they're insinuating that she's 1.00

00:05:15.500 conservative. She's not. She's a member of a group called the LaRouche PAC. These are followers of

00:05:21.060 Lyndon LaRouche. For those who don't remember, LaRouche is pretty out there. The LaRouche movement,

00:05:27.600 though, is not a conservative movement. It grew out of the 1960s radical left. Some of the things that

00:05:33.300 the LaRouche people want are they want to regulate Wall Street and they want to change our system of

00:05:41.040 exchange rates. So they oppose free-floating exchange rates, which began in the 1970s.

00:05:45.700 They support massive federal infrastructure spending. One big issue for them is they want

00:05:50.160 a Eurasian land bridge. So a land bridge connecting, you know, a super-duper highway from Europe all the

00:05:56.960 way to Siberia. They support colonization of Mars. They support a different system of tuning for classical

00:06:06.900 music. This is an important issue for the LaRouche PAC. And they support certain defense initiatives,

00:06:13.760 but not others. For instance, they support laser-based defense initiatives, but not anti-ballistic

00:06:20.660 missile systems. So not easy to categorize on the right or the left. It's a little bit of a kooky

00:06:26.060 political movement. Lyndon LaRouche himself ran for president eight times. The first time was with

00:06:31.700 the U.S. Labor Party. The next seven times were with the Democratic Party. This was as recently as

00:06:37.200 2004. So anybody who's telling you this is a conservative or even right-wing political group

00:06:45.000 that she's with is not telling the truth. That said, it's very good satire. Because I think now the

00:06:52.680 LaRouche PAC supports Trump, I'm not sure. I wouldn't be surprised if they support Trump. I think they oppose

00:06:57.800 the global warming alarmism. So, you know, it's not easily categorized. But in so much as this is satire

00:07:03.620 making fun of global warming alarmism, it's really, really good satire. What the left is trying to say

00:07:09.220 is, oh, give me a break. This woman's so crazy. This isn't even close to what we think. It is. It's really 1.00

00:07:13.920 close to what we think. The argument that the woman is making is that babies expend too much 1.00

00:07:19.720 carbon dioxide and they use too many resources and they're hurting the public and society because

00:07:24.960 of climate change. So we need to eat the babies. That's the whole satire. Who is the satire directed

00:07:31.040 toward? The left. This is not just coming from fringe people. This is coming from candidates for

00:07:37.420 president. In a recent CNN town hall talking about climate change. Bernie Sanders, the number two

00:07:45.400 candidate in the race, according to some polls. Now he's fallen most polls down to number three.

00:07:51.340 But you're talking about a top tier candidate. Bernie Sanders was asked explicitly if we should kill 0.51

00:07:57.600 babies to curb climate change. His answer was immediate and emphatic. Yes. 0.99

00:08:04.400 Human population growth has more than doubled in the past 50 years. The planet cannot sustain this

00:08:11.220 growth. I realize this is a poisonous topic for politicians, but it's crucial to face. Empowering

00:08:17.960 women and educating everyone on the need to curb population growth seems a reasonable campaign to 1.00

00:08:24.200 enact. Would you be courageous enough to discuss this issue and make it a key feature of a plan to

00:08:30.200 address climate catastrophe? Well, Martha, the answer is yes. And the answer has everything to

00:08:37.760 do with the fact that women in the United States of America, by the way, have a right to control their 1.00

00:08:43.180 own bodies and make reproductive decisions. And the Mexico City Agreement, which denies American aid to

00:08:53.160 those organizations around the world that are that allow women to have abortions or even get involved

00:09:00.240 in birth control, to me, is totally absurd. So I think especially in poor countries around the world

00:09:07.040 where women do not necessarily want to have large numbers of babies and where they can have the 0.99

00:09:13.560 opportunity through birth control to control the number of kids they have, something I very, very strongly

00:09:18.180 support. How is Bernie's argument any different from the woman's argument? The woman said we should 0.96

00:09:25.880 kill and eat babies. Bernie said we should just kill the babies. We should do both of those things 1.00

00:09:33.420 because of climate change. What this is based on is a satire by Jonathan Swift called A Modest

00:09:41.540 Proposal. Specifically, it's called A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People from 1.00

00:09:46.580 Being a Burden to Their Parents or Country and for Making Them Beneficial to the Public. And this was

00:09:52.300 a satire by the Irish writer Jonathan Swift, the idea being that you've got all these poor Irish babies 1.00

00:09:57.840 and they're a burden to the public and they're taking up too many resources. So what we should do

00:10:02.100 is feed them, feed them to rich people and we should eat the babies. Bernie, when he, now Bernie's not

00:10:09.240 talking about eating babies, he's just talking about killing babies. But he does say specifically, 0.97

00:10:12.740 we need to expand abortion in poor countries. He says, especially poor countries. We don't need 0.99

00:10:19.540 to just kill the babies here in the United States to fight climate change. Especially in poor countries 0.84

00:10:24.980 with all those bothersome poor people who are taking up too many resources. They're in the poor

00:10:29.740 countries. Most especially, we need to kill the babies. Now, today when he's talking about poor 1.00

00:10:35.960 countries or third world countries, he's talking about Africa and parts of Asia, which brings in this

00:10:41.120 whole racial aspect to it. If he were writing in the 18th century, like Jonathan Swift,

00:10:46.800 we'd be talking about the Irish babies. We need to go in there and kill these poor babies. But it gets 1.00

00:10:51.660 even better because you could say, well, look, he's just talking about killing them. And the lady at the 0.99

00:10:56.280 AOC event was talking about killing and eating them. And for some reason, those are completely different.

00:11:01.980 And it's good to kill the babies, but it would be really bad to kill and eat the babies. And no one's 0.99

00:11:06.280 talking about eating the babies. Therefore, Michael, the analogy is not a good one. Except,

00:11:12.720 except the left is talking about eating people too. Last month, a Swedish scientist was speaking at a

00:11:19.040 Swedish scientific summit and suggested that cannibalism is a great way to fight climate change.

00:11:27.560 This guy was not engaging in satire. This guy was dead serious. The Stockholm School of Economics

00:11:34.280 professor, Magnus Söderlund, what a name, said that eating human meat is a great way to help save the

00:11:41.840 human race if society would simply, quote, awaken the idea. He's talking about eating dead people.

00:11:50.360 So he says, people die and we've got all this good meat that we're just putting underground. What a huge

00:11:54.740 waste of that. If we could just eat that meat, then we wouldn't have to grow so much food and raise

00:11:59.780 cows. And then we could help save the world. When this came out, this was referred to as the

00:12:05.300 Soylent Green New Deal, based on the Charlton Heston movie where the food is people. You remember

00:12:10.780 Soylent Green. Soylent Green is people. Soylent Green is people. So you, you have a scientist

00:12:18.360 suggesting that cannibalism is a good way to fight climate change. You have a Democratic presidential

00:12:26.720 candidate suggesting that killing babies is a good way to fight climate change. And then you have a 0.98

00:12:32.360 political satirist at this AOC event suggesting that eating babies is a good way to fight climate change.

00:12:39.060 That's not a big stretch. And she's not only channeling very fringe voices, she's channeling

00:12:48.100 mainstream voices. Number three, sometimes number two, depending on what poll you're looking at in

00:12:53.200 the Democratic presidential race. So if you say this is so ridiculous, let's say that you're in the 0.77

00:13:00.200 center or you're on the left and you say how ridiculous it is that this woman's talking about 0.99

00:13:05.160 eating babies, ask yourself what's ridiculous about it. We're already, it's already a mainstream 0.98

00:13:11.100 proposal to kill babies to fight climate change. You have a scientist now talking at a big summit 0.95

00:13:17.980 about eating people. By the way, if there's no moral order, if there's no, if you don't believe

00:13:23.920 in a transcendent moral order, you don't believe that we're made in the image of God and you don't

00:13:28.120 believe God exists and you think we're all just kind of meat puppets and this is a material world,

00:13:31.460 why is it wrong to eat dead people? By that logic, by the logic of materialism and atheism,

00:13:39.880 I don't really see why it's that wrong. I mean, it's obviously wrong because there is a transcendent

00:13:45.500 moral order, but if there weren't, why would it be wrong to eat dead people? That's what this guy,

00:13:49.600 that's what the scientist is saying. Now take that logic to its logical conclusion. If you are willing

00:13:56.880 to go so far into the realm of the absurd and the disgusting as to say that we should kill human 0.98

00:14:04.060 babies to fight the weather, why is what this political satirist saying, why is that so outrageous? 0.98

00:14:14.960 It is outrageous, but it is outrageous and wrong and crazy by the logic of the left. That's what we're

00:14:22.980 getting into. And so when you look at the arguments they're making, those arguments are going to be

00:14:28.740 expressed in certain candidates. And we've already looked at Bernie Sanders, one of the top tier

00:14:32.700 candidates, he's explicitly making that argument. How are the candidates doing? We're looking not just

00:14:39.400 at flawed arguments as we look at 2020, we're looking at very flawed candidates. So Bernie Sanders,

00:14:46.740 the one who suggested we kill babies to fight the weather, is the biggest fundraiser in the democratic

00:14:52.600 field right now. He is the, by far the biggest. He raised in the third quarter, $25.3 million.

00:15:01.680 Next up was Liz Warren. She had $24.6 million. Way behind in third place is Joe Biden at $15.2 million.

00:15:10.040 What did Trump raise? Trump raised $125 million. Now Trump way outpaced Barack Obama in his re-election

00:15:20.520 campaign in 2011, in the third quarter. Obama raised $70 million. Trump is not quite double that,

00:15:25.960 but getting close to double that. Now you might say, okay, all the democratic candidates, sure,

00:15:29.940 they've raised some money and it's nowhere close to what Trump raised, but they haven't picked a nominee

00:15:33.160 yet. Sure. But look at the total money. $25.3 million for Sanders, $24.6 million for Warren.

00:15:42.020 Let's call that an even $50 million combined. And then Joe Biden behind with $15.2 million. So you're

00:15:47.300 looking at $65 million. That's combined for the top candidates, the only real candidates, I think,

00:15:54.000 at this point who have a shot at getting the nomination. That's behind Barack Obama's re-election

00:15:58.020 campaign. And it's way behind Trump. That is almost, almost half, just a little over half of

00:16:05.640 what, what Trump pulled in, in the third quarter. So not looking good for the arguments on the left

00:16:10.940 or the candidates. The good news for the Democrats is that Bernie Sanders' health is okay right now.

00:16:15.640 It looks like he's okay. Bad news is he had a heart attack last week. He didn't announce that he

00:16:21.840 had a heart attack. His campaign didn't announce that he had a heart attack. The New York Times got the

00:16:26.120 information from his doctors and his campaign later confirmed it. This is clearly a vulnerability

00:16:31.700 for the campaign. If it were not a vulnerability, the Sanders campaign would have come right out

00:16:35.700 and said it. But they didn't. You don't want a presidential candidate who's having heart attacks

00:16:40.620 on the campaign trail. I'm very glad that Bernie Sanders is okay. This is bad news for his campaign.

00:16:46.920 You know, Dick Cheney had heart attacks. He even had heart attacks after he was elected to be the

00:16:52.000 vice president, but he never had heart attacks just before an election. And he was the vice president.

00:16:57.500 He wasn't the president of the United States. People are very wary of this. John McCain had

00:17:02.260 excellent health. When he ran for president in 2008, he lived for what, another 10 years after that?

00:17:10.380 And people said, I don't know, he's a little old and we don't like this Sarah Palin lady, 1.00

00:17:14.160 so I can't vote for McCain. Bernie Sanders is 78 years old right now. He'll be 79 on election day,

00:17:19.060 2020. He'll be 83 on election day, 2024. That is a big vulnerability. So I think the public sees

00:17:30.120 Bernie Sanders is too old. Same issue for Joe Biden. Joe Biden is floundering. His poll numbers

00:17:35.100 have collapsed. He once had a 25 point lead over Bernie Sanders. He once had a 33 point lead over

00:17:41.000 Elizabeth Warren. Now he's tied with Warren. He's all the way down tied with Warren according to the

00:17:46.400 RealClearPolitics average. So this is looking at all the polls. Joe Biden has 26.3 percent to Liz

00:17:51.460 Warren's 26 percent. That is a statistical tie. MSN is now reporting that major Joe Biden donors

00:17:59.240 met in Philly this past weekend to discuss the future of the campaign. This is being reported

00:18:03.580 in left-wing outlets. According to an economist YouGov poll, Liz Warren is now not just tied with

00:18:08.580 Biden. She's now up four points on Joe Biden, 26 to 24 to 14, Bernie Sanders way in the back.

00:18:16.400 No wonder Joe Biden's funders are worried. I would, I would be worried too because his campaign

00:18:22.980 right now is at very serious risk of looking like the Jeb campaign in 2016. Jeb, Biden, exclamation

00:18:30.120 point. And Joe Biden is the most normal of these candidates. And Joe Biden is supporting radical

00:18:36.680 proposals, taxpayer funding for abortion, that sort of stuff. So then you've got Bernie Sanders. He's too

00:18:43.140 old and he thinks we should kill babies to appease the weather gods. You've got, and, and Bernie Sanders 1.00

00:18:48.800 had a heart attack on the campaign. Doesn't bode well for, for his 2020 chances. You got Joe Biden

00:18:53.860 collapsing. His poll numbers gone. Liz Warren leading or tied in polls and in the Rookler politics

00:19:00.520 average. So it's gotta be Warren, right? Not so fast. Liz Warren's facing another scandal, major scandal 1.00

00:19:06.440 rocking her world. Not the Jacob Wohl sex scandal to catch you up. If you miss that one, Jacob Wohl,

00:19:11.800 who is a, a right-wing troll came out and is suggesting that Liz Warren paid a young Marine 0.99

00:19:18.220 in his twenties for sex. I got to tell you, I don't buy it. I just don't. If Liz Warren has never had a 0.99

00:19:26.940 beer, if she's awkward drinking a beer on camera and she's kind of hugging her husband in a weird way,

00:19:32.080 I just, I, of all the scandals you're going to throw on Liz Warren, I don't think sex with a 1.00

00:19:36.400 young Marine is the one that's going to stick. The sex scandal that she's facing is lying about 1.00

00:19:41.180 sex discrimination. She's now facing a major lie about her biography. So last Wednesday during a

00:19:48.460 town hall in Nevada, Liz Warren said that she once lost a job because she was pregnant. She said, 0.98

00:19:53.440 quote, by the end of the first year, I was visibly pregnant and the principal did what principals did in

00:19:58.040 those days. Wish me luck and hire someone else for the job. He discriminated against me on sex and he

00:20:04.480 fired me because I was pregnant. That's what she's saying. However, video surfaced from a 2008 program

00:20:10.280 called Conversations with History, which might be a prophetic title if this video ends Liz Warren's 0.78

00:20:16.180 presidential campaign, because she will have been history. In that video, she said she wasn't fired

00:20:22.920 because she was pregnant. She said she was fired because she was unqualified for the job and she 0.99

00:20:27.820 decided to do something else and she was pregnant and she decided to raise her kids. Here is Liz Warren

00:20:33.760 in 2008. My first year post-graduation, I worked, it was in a public school system, but I worked with

00:20:43.180 the children with disabilities. And I did that for a year. And then that summer, I actually didn't have

00:20:54.640 the education courses. So I was on an emergency certificate, it was called. And I went back

00:20:59.120 to graduate school and took a couple of courses in education and said, I don't think this is going

00:21:05.360 to work out for me. And I was pregnant with my first baby. So I had a baby and stayed home for a couple

00:21:14.080 of years. Okay, so that's it. She didn't have the courses. And then she went to try to get the

00:21:20.100 qualification and she thought, this isn't going to really work out for me. And then she had a baby

00:21:24.580 and she stayed home for a few years. That makes perfect sense. That's very different than the story

00:21:29.220 she's telling now. This is a problem for her because she already famously lied about her resume. 1.00

00:21:34.240 She lied about being a Native American Indian. She, the whitest woman who's ever walked the face of the 1.00

00:21:39.420 earth. She lied in a very bad way for her as a leftist and as a Democrat because racial identity 0.97

00:21:46.580 politics really matters to the left. And so she lied about that. Bad idea. She lied certainly as

00:21:54.280 early as when she was teaching at UPenn. And then did that help her get the job at Harvard? I don't

00:21:59.880 know. A lot of people seem to think it did. Harvard certainly touted her Native American ancestry, 0.84

00:22:04.620 which was not true. And then it turned out it was obviously a lie. This dogged her for a little

00:22:10.040 while. And you know this bothered her by the way, because she spent a long time trying to defend it.

00:22:15.300 She took this DNA test and got her personal prov to the Boston Globe to run about how

00:22:19.780 she was one 1,000th Native American. And this somehow vindicated her decades and decades of

00:22:25.060 lying. That backfired on her big time. So she tried to fight it. Now she just apologized. Okay.

00:22:30.800 She was just getting over this. Now this new scandal comes out. If this new lie hadn't come out,

00:22:37.880 would the Pocahontas thing have stopped her from being president? I actually don't think so. 0.99

00:22:41.540 So it's a good hit. It's a very funny hit. Dogged her for a long time. I don't know that that's

00:22:47.080 enough. It's been around for a while. She made an egregious mistake. She admitted it. And Americans

00:22:52.800 are forgiving people. Now it happened again. And look, we believe in second chances. But do we

00:23:00.380 believe in third chances or fourth chances as Americans? I don't know about that. Because now

00:23:03.900 it's not just a mistake. Now it's not just a lie. Now we've got a pattern. And it's the same kind

00:23:10.700 of lie. You have a privileged woman consistently lying to make herself look like a victim. 0.98

00:23:19.040 You've got her first pretending to be a victim of race discrimination. Then you've got her 0.97

00:23:22.840 pretending to be a victim of sex discrimination. This is not going away. And I think, I don't,

00:23:29.600 I haven't seen any actual conservative who's taken her so-called sex scandal seriously that 0.87

00:23:35.180 she paid off a Marine to have sex with him. We should take this one seriously. This is a good 1.00

00:23:39.780 hit. This is a really good hit. She's just consistently lying about her racial privilege 1.00

00:23:45.000 and her sexual privilege. I'm using the left's terms because she's going to have to answer to 0.99

00:23:49.080 the left for those. And we should hammer her for it. Speaking of sex discrimination, by the way, 1.00

00:23:53.700 huge story. I'll just give you a little preview of this. One of the biggest Supreme Court cases

00:23:58.640 possibly ever is coming up tomorrow and nobody is talking about it. The case is Harris Funeral Homes

00:24:05.900 versus Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. What this case is about is whether sex means sex,

00:24:12.860 you know, male and female, man and woman, or whether sex means gender identity. So not your objective

00:24:20.140 sex, but your subjective feelings about your sex. What's the case? The case is about this funeral home.

00:24:29.160 Owned by a guy named Thomas Rost. For six years at this funeral home, they had an employee named

00:24:34.620 Anthony Stevens. At the funeral home, obviously it's a very touchy, sensitive industry. And so

00:24:42.260 when the people are dealing with grieving families, there's a dress code. Anthony Stevens, this employee

00:24:47.220 at the funeral home, agreed to the dress code. He signed a contract saying, I will abide by the dress

00:24:51.500 code. Six years he abided by that dress code until one day Anthony came in and he decided that he was Amy.

00:24:57.880 And so he insisted on wearing a dress. He insisted on wearing a skirt suit. So he's not wearing pants

00:25:04.320 anymore. He's wearing a skirt suit. And what Thomas Ross said is, look, we like you a lot,

00:25:08.260 Anthony or Amy or whatever you're going by now, but you can't violate this dress code. You've got

00:25:14.420 grieving families here and they don't need your show and your political statement and your issues

00:25:22.380 to affect them. This is about them. It's not about you. You agreed to wear the dress code.

00:25:27.260 You got to do the dress code. So Anthony, now Amy leaves and sues. And so what happened is the

00:25:34.720 Obama administration through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission sided with Anthony Stevens,

00:25:40.040 now Amy Stevens. Now it's the Trump administration. Trump's DOJ supports the funeral home.

00:25:45.860 This all comes down to the Civil Rights Act. The Civil Rights Act bans discrimination on the basis

00:25:53.400 of sex. But Anthony Stevens is not being discriminated against on the basis of sex.

00:25:58.300 He's being discriminated against on the basis of his imagination. I mean, that's the only argument

00:26:05.020 he's got for discrimination is that I imagine myself to be a woman, even though I'm not a woman,

00:26:09.240 and therefore I'm being discriminated against. And therefore you need to sue me and you need to let me 0.93

00:26:14.080 wear whatever I want to wear in front of grieving families, even though I signed a contract saying

00:26:18.200 I wouldn't. Now the Civil Rights Act has, this has actually already been interpreted. The Civil Rights

00:26:25.220 Act bans sex discrimination, but it does not require either asexuality or androgyny. So sexual

00:26:31.760 difference is still respected. Everybody in this case still respects that men, there can be different

00:26:36.500 dress codes for men and women at the office. The case, the court ruled on this in 1998. So the Obama

00:26:42.660 administration threw this all into chaos by saying that the word sex maybe doesn't mean sex.

00:26:47.200 You can't have both sex and gender identity protection. The way to really look at this is

00:26:54.300 maybe not even in the employment case, but in sports. Title IX sets up, says that you won't

00:27:00.320 discriminate in sports on the basis of sex. So you get women sports leagues. Women get to have their 1.00

00:27:06.380 own sports leagues. They get to engage in sports. If you now change sex to mean gender identity,

00:27:14.700 it's not just that everybody benefits and rights were expanded to more people.

00:27:19.040 You actually completely undermine the definition of sex. It's not just that more people get to play

00:27:25.200 sports. It's that women don't get to play sports. You can't have them both. Sex is either objective 1.00

00:27:30.520 reality or it's subjective preference and fantasy and imagination. You can't have both at the same

00:27:37.820 time. Ryan Anderson has a great op-ed on this in the New York Post today. You should go check it out. I'm

00:27:42.460 going to be filling in for Ben's radio show later on and we're going to be talking to the lawyer who's

00:27:45.980 going to be arguing this case before the Supreme Court tomorrow. This is a case to watch. A lot depends

00:27:51.340 on this case. It's about a lot more than pronouns. It's about a lot more than just making people feel

00:27:56.320 good about themselves. This is about who gets to define reality itself. This is about whether women 1.00

00:28:01.360 have legal protections like in sports leagues or in bathrooms or in their own schools or anything

00:28:05.420 like that. So much depends upon the pronouns. So much depends upon whether a man at a funeral home

00:28:12.160 is allowed to wear a dress or not. So stay tuned for that. We'll obviously be covering it as it comes

00:28:16.760 out. We've got a lot more to get to. We've got to get to Kanye West's Sunday services and Kanye West

00:28:21.420 defending the Republican Party and Kanye West coming out with a new album called Jesus is King.

00:28:26.320 We have got to get to the Joker. I'm going to try to get my thoughts on the Joker if we have time.

00:28:30.320 And then we have from the New York Times the dumbest article on the internet today. I love 0.94

00:28:37.200 this article. It wasn't usually when I wake up and I say, what's the dumbest article on the internet 0.98

00:28:41.740 today? It kind of takes me a minute. No, not today because the New York Times is publishing an op-ed 0.96

00:28:46.680 not about present political issues, but it is what they call an op-ed from the future.

00:28:54.100 However, the New York Times is now employing fiction writers to write actual fiction on the

00:29:00.500 pages of the New York Times. At least they're honest. We'll get to that in a second. But first,

00:29:03.240 I got to say about Facebook and YouTube. Go to dailywire.com. 10 bucks a month, $100 for an

00:29:43.780 great reviews. Please go check it out. Another Kingdom. We always talk about how conservatives

00:29:48.220 need to be in the culture. Well, here it is. The conservatives are out in the culture and I

00:29:52.060 think it's great. This is Drew Klavan's final installment of his Another Kingdom trilogy. I am

00:29:57.360 so thrilled that I get to be a part of it. Check it out. It's going to be a lot of fun.

00:30:01.080 Dailywire.com. We'll be right back with a lot more.

00:30:02.740 Okay. Pastor West is out with his new Sunday service and his new Christian album. I'm talking

00:30:19.960 about Kanye, Priest Kanye, Father Kanye. How many more titles can he get? He always gives himself

00:30:27.300 all these titles, so I guess I can give them to him too. Kanye West has been moving toward the right

00:30:32.280 in recent years, politically and even religiously. He's not talking about atheism and materialism and

00:30:39.620 secularism and all those religions that are affiliated with the left wing. He's talking

00:30:44.360 explicitly about traditional religion, specifically about Christianity. And this has been happening for

00:30:51.920 a while. Now it's culminating in what he's doing are Sunday services and Christians and conservatives

00:30:55.860 are really split on this. Some conservatives say we don't want Kanye's support. Some Christians say

00:31:00.640 we hate what Kanye is doing. We don't want him to talk about Jesus. How dare you do it?

00:31:04.800 There were good arguments on both sides, but I support yay. I support Kanye. I never thought

00:31:11.240 I would say those words because I'm not a huge fan of his music. I support what he's doing here. So he

00:31:16.060 was doing a Sunday service to promote his new album, Jesus is King. And he did one in Salt Lake City

00:31:20.800 where he extolled the virtues of the Republican Party for freeing slaves. And he condemned mental

00:31:26.260 slavery and the mental slavery of voting for a political party on the basis of your skin color.

00:31:32.200 Here he is.

00:31:32.700 Abraham Lincoln is the weak party. That's the Republican Party that freed the slaves. 0.62

00:31:38.960 That's the Republican Party that freed the slaves.

00:31:45.760 one of the.... 0.98

00:31:51.340 Oh ****.

00:31:52.320 This is really terrific to see. 0.77

00:32:21.120 It is.

00:32:21.920 It is really terrific to see.

00:32:24.140 There are a lot of reasons to be skeptical here.

00:32:27.260 One is for the Christians who don't like that he's doing the Sunday service.

00:32:31.800 Liturgical abuse is real.

00:32:33.740 I would much rather we all do the like 1962 traditional Latin mass all the time.

00:32:38.920 I wish people would come to that.

00:32:40.220 But that's not exactly the option that we're being presented with in the culture.

00:32:44.960 So that's real.

00:32:46.640 Look, Kanye West has exhibited a lot of narcissism in his career.

00:32:49.260 All celebrities do.

00:32:50.540 And he's a big celebrity.

00:32:52.100 And also when politics becomes the center of what celebrities are talking about, it's very annoying.

00:32:57.080 That's not what Kanye is doing here.

00:33:00.160 That's not exactly what Kanye is doing.

00:33:01.980 I mean, he comes out there and he says, he's got Jesus Walks playing in the background, which is one of only two Kanye West songs that I like.

00:33:08.800 Jesus Walks. 0.70

00:33:09.620 And he did one with Paul McCartney called Only One, which I kind of like to.

00:33:12.560 I'm almost certain Paul McCartney wrote that song, so maybe that's why I like it.

00:33:16.980 But he's got that song playing, which is pretty good.

00:33:18.920 And he says, look, the Republican Party freed the slaves.

00:33:21.760 And his point isn't that we all need to vote for Republicans.

00:33:24.440 His point is, he says, you're going to call me a racial slur for saying that I like Donald Trump.

00:33:32.500 I have my right to an opinion, and you don't get to tell me that.

00:33:37.160 I'm going to have my opinion.

00:33:38.100 He's standing firm on it.

00:33:39.500 He came out a while ago and put the MAGA hat on and hugged Trump and said, I love Trump.

00:33:43.160 And people really knocked him for it.

00:33:45.500 And he stood tall and he says, look, I'm not going to be a mental slave.

00:33:48.540 I'm not going to say what you force me to say.

00:33:52.400 You, mainstream media.

00:33:54.560 You, political correctness.

00:33:56.520 I'm not going to do that.

00:33:57.380 I've got my own opinions.

00:33:58.400 I really like that.

00:33:59.480 And I even sort of like the idea of the Sunday service.

00:34:02.840 You know, I, yesterday I was in Phoenix and I went to a fabulous Latin mass in Phoenix.

00:34:08.260 And it was really great.

00:34:09.060 And then afterward we went to have brunch with a friend of ours.

00:34:11.640 And I, what it means is I went to church for Christians and then I went to church for modern liberals.

00:34:18.420 Because brunch is church for modern liberals.

00:34:21.780 They, even friends of mine have put it that way.

00:34:24.540 They say, of course brunch is church.

00:34:26.380 That's my Sunday ritual.

00:34:27.360 I go out and I have a mimosa and, you know, my sacraments are a mimosa and an egg sandwich.

00:34:32.840 That's true of a lot of people.

00:34:33.900 I like brunch.

00:34:34.640 And most of my friends probably are liberal atheists or liberal materialists or liberal religious but not, or spiritual but not religious.

00:34:42.040 I mean, they're, they're that kind of thing.

00:34:43.640 That's what the millennial culture is.

00:34:46.180 You've got to meet people where they are.

00:34:47.640 You've got to be thing, all things to all people.

00:34:51.300 And that's a little bit what Kanye's doing here, I think.

00:34:54.140 The album is called Jesus is King.

00:34:57.160 The album isn't called Kanye is King.

00:34:59.100 The album isn't called Kanye is Jesus.

00:35:01.180 He's talked a little bit that way in the past, but that doesn't seem to be the way he's talking now.

00:35:05.580 And Kanye's not always talking about his political views.

00:35:07.600 He's just saying that he has the right to have political views.

00:35:11.080 And the other thing is, this is my big defense of Kanye, generally.

00:35:15.700 Kanye West has a pretty good ear.

00:35:17.280 I don't like his music that much.

00:35:20.500 But I've always said he has a good ear.

00:35:22.440 So the way I would often put it is that Kanye West is really good at listening to good music.

00:35:27.940 He has a really good taste in music.

00:35:29.260 And then he raps over it and ruins it.

00:35:30.880 Which is not even a knock on Kanye.

00:35:34.520 It's kind of a knock on hip-hop in general.

00:35:36.120 But he's got a good ear for music.

00:35:37.920 So Jesus Walks is a good example. 0.96

00:35:39.620 The song in Jesus Walks is really good.

00:35:42.260 Walk With Me is a really nice song.

00:35:44.280 And then he does Jesus Walks and raps over it and makes it not as good a sounding song.

00:35:49.120 He's got a good ear for the culture, too.

00:35:50.700 He can hear things in the culture that most people can't hear.

00:35:54.060 That's why he's been on top for a very long time.

00:35:57.480 He's not just following the crowd.

00:35:59.060 He's kind of leading the crowd in the culture.

00:36:01.400 And I think he's hearing that people want meaning.

00:36:06.100 I think that's why he's doing these Sunday services,

00:36:08.100 which is not the traditional Latin mass that I go to on the weekends.

00:36:13.000 But it's something.

00:36:14.780 It's showing people want meaning.

00:36:15.980 And instead of putting that meaning into a global warming rally, which we saw a week ago,

00:36:20.840 he's putting that meaning into an explicitly religious rally, an explicitly Christian rally.

00:36:28.960 And he calls the album Jesus is King.

00:36:32.460 People want meaning.

00:36:34.100 And if they can, as they're looking for meaning, and everybody's got to serve somebody,

00:36:39.320 so they're going to find the meaning in global warming or they're going to find the meaning in Christianity.

00:36:44.760 And if he's leading people in that direction, I think that's a great thing.

00:36:48.000 If he can bring people around to Christ, I think that's a great thing.

00:36:50.840 And if they can start at Sunday service and end up at church, I think that's a great thing.

00:36:55.180 They're not going to start out at church.

00:36:56.520 They're going to start out at brunch.

00:36:58.280 And then the question is, where are they going to go after brunch?

00:36:59.980 Are they going to go to a political rally for leftism or are they going to go to a Sunday service?

00:37:05.240 And then once they go to the Sunday service and they get a little taste,

00:37:07.960 I don't think they're going to be satisfied there.

00:37:10.220 I think, I hope, they're going to want to start going to church.

00:37:13.980 And they're going to want to start reading the Bible.

00:37:15.280 And they're going to want to start experiencing the sacraments.

00:37:17.820 And they're going to want to go to mass.

00:37:19.400 And they're going to want a transcendent religious experience.

00:37:23.240 Kanye can bring them there.

00:37:24.040 That's a good thing.

00:37:24.620 You know, the lyrics of Jesus Walks are pretty good.

00:37:28.200 In Jesus Walks, I fear that I'm going to spawn a thousand memes by reading this.

00:37:34.220 But, you know, it is what it is.

00:37:35.600 Kanye says,

00:37:36.440 It's actually pretty complex lyrics because what he says is speaking colloquially.

00:38:06.620 He's saying,

00:38:07.500 I don't think there's nothing I can do now to right my wrongs.

00:38:10.800 Meaning, I don't think there's anything that I can do to right my wrongs.

00:38:13.840 But, what he's explicitly, what he's literally saying is the Christian message.

00:38:18.820 Which is, I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs.

00:38:23.660 You can have your wrongs righted by accepting grace.

00:38:28.600 And this, I want Jesus, keeps coming through.

00:38:30.660 Jesus Walks with me.

00:38:31.600 I want to talk to God, but I'm afraid because I haven't talked to him in so long.

00:38:35.680 This is true of the guy who goes to mass every day.

00:38:39.980 This is true of the guy who's always in the confessional line.

00:38:43.200 Like, I will stand in the confession line.

00:38:45.440 And, you know, for those who are unaware with our smells and bells Catholic rituals, we have a sacrament called confession where you go and you confess your sins to a priest and then the priest conveys the absolution of your sins.

00:38:58.540 And the forgiveness of your sins.

00:39:02.200 And, when I'm standing in that line, I could go every week.

00:39:07.120 I could go more than once a week.

00:39:08.900 You still feel this anxiety.

00:39:11.040 You still feel this, gosh, I have to confess that.

00:39:13.440 I feel, I haven't talked to God.

00:39:14.920 I've been separated from God.

00:39:16.380 And Kanye conveys that.

00:39:17.580 If Kanye is bringing people around, I think it's great.

00:39:20.420 And if Kanye is showing people you don't need to only have one political point of view, I think that's great.

00:39:24.880 And the enthusiasm with which he does it and the sort of almost innocence with which he does it, I think is absolutely terrific.

00:39:31.460 I give him a lot of credit.

00:39:33.060 If he lacks in some of the virtues, you can't say that he's not courageous.

00:39:38.200 And courage is a virtue and courage is the prerequisite for all the other virtues.

00:39:41.820 So, I give him credit.

00:39:43.100 I tip my MAGA hat to him.

00:39:45.020 Before we go, I'm not going to give a long review of Joker because I don't want to give spoilers.

00:39:51.240 But I really liked it.

00:39:53.700 I don't think it's the greatest movie ever made.

00:39:55.580 I probably won't ever see it again.

00:39:56.840 But I really liked the movie.

00:39:58.740 And you should go see it.

00:39:59.700 The fact that critics are giving it 69% on Rotten Tomatoes and the people are giving it 90% tells you a lot.

00:40:07.340 The movie is very insightful.

00:40:10.980 It's not easily categorized.

00:40:13.760 It shows you all perspectives.

00:40:16.120 I think the movie is pretty anti-left.

00:40:20.200 I think that it's a political movie.

00:40:21.720 I mean, it's about a political movement.

00:40:22.880 It's about an election campaign.

00:40:23.960 So, I'm not just reading politics into a movie where there are none.

00:40:26.640 And the villain is a leftist.

00:40:31.040 And the villains are leftists.

00:40:34.400 Now, one problem here is that the villain is sort of the protagonist.

00:40:39.500 The Joker is a villain, but he's the protagonist of the film, kind of.

00:40:42.520 He's still the villain, though.

00:40:44.640 If you look at this film with moral clarity, it's very anti-leftist. 0.59

00:40:50.620 I mean, the people who are the clowns who support the Joker are holding up resist signs.

00:40:56.140 The guy who's running for office is a billionaire. 0.94

00:40:58.100 He's obviously a Trump figure. 0.98

00:41:00.320 And it exposes our mental health hypocrisy. 0.96

00:41:03.620 You know, the same people who say we need to destigmatize mental health.

00:41:06.280 We need to talk about mental health.

00:41:07.640 They're the least likely to do it. 0.82

00:41:08.940 And the minute you do it, they bite your head off.

00:41:12.420 And it also gives us a good eye into free will. 0.89

00:41:16.360 It doesn't just say, oh, no, these poor people are destined to misery their whole lives if you have mental health issues.

00:41:22.700 Or if you're poor or if you're born in a tough family circumstance, you're just destined to have a tough life.

00:41:28.740 It permits free will in a pretty sophisticated way, in a pretty complex way.

00:41:32.760 I think it's a perfect movie for right now, for this moment.

00:41:37.480 Because one of the songs that keeps coming up in the previews, and it's in the movie too, is Send in the Clowns.

00:41:43.440 This is a Stephen Sondheim song that is so misunderstood.

00:41:46.560 It's the send in the clowns, where are the clowns?

00:41:50.460 And the last line is they're already here.

00:41:54.840 Send in the clowns is people are wondering what this song means.

00:41:58.920 They've always asked Stephen Sondheim.

00:42:00.260 And Sondheim did an interview, he said, it's not an esoteric song. 0.68

00:42:04.000 The idea is that the clowns are us. 0.94

00:42:06.160 Clown is a word for fool, and it's the song sung in a musical between two people who have variously loved each other, but they've always screwed it up. 0.98

00:42:13.580 And the joke is, send in the clowns, let's bring a little laughter into this difficult moment. 1.00

00:42:18.120 And, oh, wait, we don't need to send in the clowns, we're the clowns, we're the fools, we're the clowns. 0.98

00:42:22.580 The fact that that song is being used to market the movie tells you a lot about this moment. 1.00

00:42:28.000 We are the clowns, all of us, we are the ones, we are the fools, we are behaving foolishly. 0.98

00:42:33.060 And the vision, the bleak, nihilistic vision that's presented in the movie is a vision embraced by a lot of people, but it's a crazy vision. 0.99

00:42:41.580 It's a dark one, it's one we're living in right now.

00:42:44.300 And the movie takes up the question of comedy.

00:42:46.440 The Joker, what is the joke?

00:42:47.760 What is comedy?

00:42:48.400 And there's one view of comedy, which is that it's farce, it's absurd, it's all about nothing, it's all just a big joke.

00:42:56.060 And then there's another version of comedy, which is like the Divine Comedy.

00:42:59.180 In the opera Pagliacci, Pagliacci says, la comedia, you hear la comedia finita, the comedy is finished.

00:43:05.840 And Pope Benedict XV apparently said this on his deathbed, he said the comedy is finished.

00:43:10.880 It's not him saying my life was a big joke, a big farce.

00:43:13.260 It's him saying life is a comedy, it has a happy ending.

00:43:17.020 And Joker explores that question, it allows you to see it, I recommend it.

00:43:21.340 Maybe next week we'll be able to talk about more thoughts on this, because I don't want any spoilers, but go see it.

00:43:26.100 Go see it right now, so that I can go give you my thoughts on it. 0.88

00:43:28.520 Before we go, I need to talk about the stupidest article on the internet today. 0.98

00:43:31.840 It's from the New York Times. 0.99

00:43:33.060 It's called, It's 2024, We Need to Keep Abortion Legal in New York. 0.97

00:43:37.400 Thanks to a landmark ruling that overturned Roe versus Wade, abortion is now illegal everywhere,

00:43:41.960 except New York and Hawaii, but a new bill threatens the legal status of abortions.

00:43:47.160 So, you'll notice right away, it's not 2024, the editor has a note.

00:43:50.960 This is part of the op-eds from the Future series in which science fiction authors, futurists, philosophers, and scientists

00:43:55.580 write op-eds that they imagine we might read 10, 50, or even 200 years from now.

00:44:00.420 So the Times is admitting that they are now a work of fiction.

00:44:03.620 We already knew that, but now they're admitting it.

00:44:06.080 Because they can't, they can't complain about what's happening.

00:44:08.680 I mean, right now, the Trump presidency is pretty good, so it always has to be hypotheticals,

00:44:13.260 imaginary, what if, fiction.

00:44:15.780 So it opens up.

00:44:17.500 It says,

00:44:17.760 The New York legislature is convening this week to begin debate on S-9764.

00:44:22.640 I would like to offer my thoughts as a gynecologist who still provides that rarest of services, abortion.

00:44:27.720 Our legal status is under threat as our lives have been for decades.

00:44:31.140 More important, the legislators for this passage of this bill are dishonest in their motives

00:44:35.400 and willfully blind to the consequences of its probable passage.

00:44:37.800 So what they don't understand is Roe versus Wade.

00:44:40.200 They actually don't know what Roe v. Wade is.

00:44:42.420 The op-ed goes on and it says,

00:44:43.920 Ever since a case in 2022 overturned Roe versus Wade, 14 states have outlawed abortion.

00:44:51.160 And then seven states began prosecuting women for abortion.

00:44:55.340 And now it's illegal everywhere except pretty much New York.

00:44:58.600 If abortion is popular, if people want abortion, then it will be legal in a lot of places.

00:45:03.580 Roe versus Wade being overturned won't outlaw abortion.

00:45:06.080 It will just allow states to make their own decisions as they should because there's no such thing as a constitutional right to abortion. 0.99

00:45:12.800 Then it goes on.

00:45:13.680 They say most so-called abortion states have adopted legislation restricting access to publicly funded abortions.

00:45:21.860 Legally, we don't currently have publicly funded abortions.

00:45:24.520 So obviously this New York Times writer doesn't understand the law, but we do have publicly funded abortions because money is fungible and we give taxpayer money to Planned Parenthood and we say it's only for non-abortion services.

00:45:41.660 But if they get the money, they're going to use it for whatever they do and what they do is abortion. 0.99

00:45:46.360 This op-ed doesn't even know that.

00:45:51.580 So they don't know that.

00:45:52.620 They don't acknowledge that.

00:45:53.580 Then they go on.

00:45:54.060 They say these laws disproportionately affect black women. 0.96

00:45:56.520 We know this from 70 years ago.

00:45:59.340 It disproportionately affects black women. 0.94

00:46:01.100 You mean because it allows more black babies to be born? 0.99

00:46:03.800 Black women are much more likely to have abortions. 1.00

00:46:06.200 And the abortion proponents push for this. 0.99

00:46:09.320 I mean, you just heard Bernie Sanders say, we need to go into poor countries, by which he means African countries, and make sure we kill more babies. 0.85

00:46:16.700 And this is true in the United States. 0.99

00:46:18.040 In the United States, more black babies, in New York, more black babies are aborted than are born. 0.93

00:46:23.600 It just goes on in this sort of nonsensical way and exposes the left's opinion of abortion.

00:46:32.440 It just reveals a couple things.

00:46:33.740 One, they don't understand the law.

00:46:37.440 They don't understand the Constitution.

00:46:39.780 Two, abortion is a sacrament to the left.

00:46:44.280 It does come down to abortion. 1.00

00:46:45.540 The Gorsuch stuff came, or I'm sorry, the Kavanaugh stuff came down to abortion. 0.99

00:46:49.140 So much of their political activism comes down to the right to kill babies. 0.96

00:46:55.420 That's what they fear more than anything. 0.94

00:46:57.600 That's what they're writing in the New York Times.

00:46:59.160 It is wicked.

00:47:00.660 It's illogical, and you can see the illogic of it in the op-ed.

00:47:03.840 But it brings us right back to our first story, which is that girl at the AOC town hall screaming about how we need to eat babies.

00:47:14.700 Everyone said it was so crazy. 0.99

00:47:15.900 It was so ridiculous. 0.79

00:47:16.740 It's not. 0.87

00:47:20.180 It's satire, and satire tells you the truth.

00:47:23.020 And we're seeing that truth, which is fiction, on the cover of the New York Times, the leftist paper par excellence.

00:47:30.960 The truth, it seems, is stranger than fiction, and we're getting a lot of truth out of that fiction from the left, and the truth is pretty appalling.

00:47:37.860 That's our show.
