00:00:46.020 Then, new polling shows a big boost to Bernie's chances of winning the Democratic nomination.

00:00:50.960 Freshman Representative Ilhan Omar admits she's un-American and Harvey Weinstein is headed for the clink.

00:00:56.360 All that and more.

00:00:57.160 I'm Michael Knowles, and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:06.200 We have a lot to get to today.

00:01:08.680 So many things out there are trying to kill you.

00:01:12.700 One big threat that's out there that is not as physical as it is informational would be threats to your data.

00:01:20.020 Did you know that your internet service provider, say Comcast or Verizon maybe, they know every single website that you visit?

00:01:28.980 Every single one.

00:01:30.860 Even the ones on the incognito window.

00:01:33.720 I'm talking, of course, of DAILYWIRE.com.

00:01:35.700 What's worse is they can sell this information to ad companies and tech giants who will then use your data to target you.

00:02:28.420 So much to get to.

00:02:30.660 So we will get to all of it.

00:02:32.880 The coronavirus.

00:02:33.680 The coronavirus poses a major threat to the whole world, but that threat is not exactly the kind of threat you think it is.

00:02:43.760 The threat is mostly political and economical.

00:02:47.880 It's actually not as much biological.

00:02:50.160 There is a ton of misinformation going around about coronavirus.

00:02:53.100 So let's just look at the numbers very quickly so you can see where the threat really lies.

00:02:58.560 So far, during the outbreak of this virus, 2,600 people have died.

00:03:04.860 It started in the city of Wuhan in China.

00:03:07.880 Wuhan has a population of 11 million people.

00:03:11.360 Wuhan is in Hubei province.

00:03:13.680 The population of that province is 58 and a half million people.

00:03:17.180 So that's basically the population of Italy.

00:03:18.980 Italy, by the way, has one of the worst death tolls anywhere from coronavirus.

00:03:25.560 And that death toll is now at five confirmed deaths.

00:03:30.340 Coronavirus has also hit Iran.

00:03:32.340 Iran has 12 confirmed deaths.

00:03:35.780 Obviously, very sad when anybody dies.

00:03:38.040 But to put that in perspective, we're also in flu season, right?

00:03:43.240 During this flu season alone, do you know how many people have died from the flu?

00:03:48.000 14,000 people.

00:03:51.080 So far, during just this flu season, five times as many people have died from the flu, the regular old flu, as have died from coronavirus.

00:04:00.960 Last flu season, when everything was said and done, over 61,000 people died.

00:04:08.040 Now, what is the death rate for the flu?

00:04:09.960 The death rate for the flu is 0.1%.

00:04:12.300 So if you're healthy and you get the flu, most likely you're going to be totally fine.

00:04:16.020 If you're very, very young or very, very old, then it can be dangerous.

00:04:20.400 0.1% death rate.

00:04:22.220 In mainland China, the death rate for coronavirus is, in some provinces, about 0.4%.

00:04:30.620 So higher, but still much less than 1%.

00:04:34.340 Even in Hubei province, right, the epicenter of coronavirus, the death rate has peaked at 2.9%.

00:04:41.860 So that's mainland China, the province where it's happening, right, the city where it's happening.

00:04:48.300 If you control for America's vastly superior public health infrastructure,

00:04:55.920 the death rate for coronavirus is not dramatically higher than the death rate for the flu.

00:05:03.400 So the unique threat that coronavirus poses right now, not really to our health as much.

00:05:09.620 I mean, people are monitoring it, but the real threat seems to be to the economy.

00:05:14.200 It is tanking the world economy.

00:05:17.340 Right now, China's economy was already on the fritz, all right?

00:05:20.840 It was already at the lowest level of growth that we've seen since 1990, so 30 years.

00:05:27.080 As a result of this coronavirus, the country has more or less ground to a halt.

00:05:32.160 That's also true in Italy.

00:05:33.580 So Italy right now, the city of Milan, which drives the whole Italian economy, has ground to a halt.

00:05:39.460 Milan's more or less on lockdown.

00:05:41.160 Frankly, I am of Italian descent.

00:05:43.660 I've spent some time in Italy.

00:05:44.860 I think the Italians just look for any excuse to stop working. 1.00

00:05:47.280 But regardless, the economic effect is the same.

00:05:50.800 You're seeing a slowdown.

00:05:52.520 This is happening all around the world.

00:05:54.140 Yesterday, the Dow Jones dropped 1,000 points because of coronavirus fears.

00:05:59.940 Maybe there's a little pricing in there of fears about Bernie Sanders.

00:06:03.380 They don't want the leading world economy to have a socialist president.

00:06:07.120 But I think probably a lot of it's traceable to coronavirus.

00:06:09.980 This was the third worst point drop in the history of the Dow Jones.

00:06:14.260 So this is why President Trump is downplaying coronavirus.

00:06:18.500 He tweeted out yesterday, quote,

00:06:20.760 The coronavirus is very much under control in the USA.

00:06:24.020 We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries.

00:06:27.640 CDC and World Health have been working hard and very smart.

00:06:31.200 Stock market starting to look very good to me.

00:06:34.100 Now, he's obviously trying to boost confidence here.

00:06:37.240 I don't know if he really thinks the stock market's looking good because

00:06:39.720 it was the third worst point drop in history.

00:06:42.640 Nevertheless, President Trump understands the real threat here is economic.

00:06:49.180 If the economy tanks, that is pretty much the only way that Trump loses this presidential election.

00:06:56.140 Okay, things are looking very good right now for President Trump.

00:06:59.460 You've got this wacko socialist who is double and tripling down on Fidel Castro, 1.00

00:07:04.940 running away with the Democratic nomination.

00:07:07.200 We'll get to that in just a little bit.

00:07:08.500 You've got the so-called moderate, can't even say his own name on the campaign trail, Joe Biden.

00:07:13.240 You've got the other moderate, Pete Buttigieg, is actually a huge radical who drags nine-year-old boys on stage 0.68

00:07:20.560 at his campaign events to come out as homosexual.

00:07:24.180 Pretty, pretty radical.

00:07:25.240 Whose father was the head of the International Gramsci Society.

00:07:27.480 So, Trump is looking great unless the economy tanks.

00:07:33.080 How on earth could the economy tank?

00:07:34.520 Record low unemployment, record high stock markets, great growth.

00:07:39.020 The way it could tank is if you have this totally unpredictable virus that's taking over the whole world.

00:07:46.240 Is that why the media are playing up coronavirus so much?

00:07:48.880 That's a good question because we know the death rate is relatively low.

00:07:53.820 We know relatively few people have been affected by it.

00:07:55.960 And yet the media are treating us as though it's the next bubonic plague that's going to kill all of us.

00:08:02.880 Some prominent people in the media have been hoping for a recession.

00:08:07.920 And they've been hoping for a recession because even though it's going to hurt a lot of people,

00:08:11.960 the recession will reduce the chances that President Trump gets re-elected.

00:08:15.540 That's not some right-wing conspiracy theory.

00:08:17.260 We saw this on Bill Maher's show just a few months ago.

00:08:21.480 Farmers out there saying, well, he must know what he's doing.

00:08:23.760 I guess they're just going to have to keep touching this hot stove.

00:08:26.200 I'm not wishing for a recession, but if the farmers want to keep touching the hot stove.

00:08:29.740 Well, you should wish for a recession because that will definitely get him unelected.

00:08:33.600 Okay, but Bill, you don't really want a recession.

00:08:35.240 I really do.

00:08:36.400 We have survived many recessions.

00:08:38.620 We can't survive another Donald Trump term.

00:08:40.600 You're going to knock lower middle income people out of work.

00:08:43.260 I do.

00:08:44.320 Look, at least Bill Maher tells you what he thinks, right?

00:08:50.620 And I think a lot of other people in the media feel exactly the same way.

00:08:55.440 Okay, now, I don't think that liberals invented coronavirus.

00:08:59.660 I don't think they went to, like, the Lib Lab and developed this bioweapon so that they could get rid of Donald Trump. 0.96

00:09:07.560 However, I don't think it came from bats either.

00:09:12.560 Remember, the initial story with coronaviruses. 0.98

00:09:15.200 Some people in Wuhan ate some bat soup, and that was dumb. 0.53

00:09:19.680 And now one of the bats had coronavirus, and now everybody's sick. 0.86

00:09:23.420 That story is starting to break down.

00:09:26.120 There is now a lot of evidence that the coronavirus was cooked up as potentially a biological weapon in a Chinese government lab. 0.89

00:09:33.800 The evidence of this is that the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology just released a new directive titled, quote,

00:09:40.680 Instructions on Strengthening Biosecurity Management in Microbiology Labs that Handle Advanced Viruses Like the Novel Coronavirus.

00:09:49.720 You say, well, how many of these labs do you have floating around China that just happen to be handling these radical viruses?

00:09:56.800 And the answer is they have one, and that one lab happens to be in Wuhan.

00:10:03.880 That's a lot of a coincidence.

00:10:05.260 So it may be the case that China, the Chinese government, was cooking up this new biological weapon. 0.95

00:10:10.740 It got out somehow.

00:10:12.320 It's now affecting their own population.

00:10:14.040 It's now spreading around the world.

00:10:16.440 That is pretty bad news.

00:10:18.380 We've got more bad news for the economy, but I do want to remind you, if you are a Daily Wire subscriber,

00:10:22.100 if you're a member and you have the app or you're on the website right now, write in your questions,

00:10:27.580 and we're going to be taking a few live questions during the show.

00:10:30.320 Your pressing, deepest, most burning questions that you've got, we will do our best to answer them.

00:10:38.160 On top of the coronavirus, we've got more bad news for the economy.

00:10:42.800 Namely, Bernie Sanders is freaking killing it. 0.92

00:10:46.600 Well, he's going to freaking kill the economy, but he's also freaking killing it in the Democratic primary race. 0.73

00:10:52.840 Bernie Sanders just took a major boost to his campaign. 0.88

00:10:58.280 Bernie has taken the lead among black Democratic primary voters nationally.

00:11:05.580 Huge news.

00:11:06.880 We've been talking about this for months now.

00:11:09.880 Bernie had the momentum, but Bernie's base has always been pretty narrow.

00:11:13.820 He's always had a very white, very far left base.

00:11:19.260 And so he was going to struggle in states like, say, South Carolina.

00:11:23.780 Joe Biden's only argument for electing him or nominating him this year was that he's the only guy who can win black votes.

00:11:30.380 Well, now Bernie Sanders is doing better among black voters than Joe Biden is.

00:11:36.000 This is according to a morning consult poll that was just released yesterday.

00:11:40.240 Nationally, Bernie Sanders is at 32% among black Democratic primary voters.

00:11:48.120 Bloomberg is in second place with 19%.

00:11:52.660 Biden is all the way down in third at 18%, followed by Buttigieg and Warren, who both have 11%.

00:11:59.680 And then everybody else comes after that.

00:12:02.180 Evidence of our thesis yesterday, which is that a classic blunder in politics is people think they can win by losing.

00:12:11.180 They think they can skip Iowa and New Hampshire and South Carolina and Nevada, but, you know, they're going to come back afterward.

00:12:17.500 They can lose.

00:12:18.040 They can lose.

00:12:18.480 They can lose.

00:12:19.100 Now, Mike Bloomberg is technically skipping those elections.

00:12:23.360 He's not on the ballot, but he's spending heavy.

00:12:25.640 He is on the airwaves in those states as though he is running.

00:12:30.540 And so because he's got a kind of unique candidacy, he came in so late.

00:12:33.580 He's being considered among the candidates, even though he's not really on the ballot.

00:12:38.360 Joe Biden, the same cannot be said.

00:12:40.740 Joe Biden is not running competitively there.

00:12:42.720 His money is running out.

00:12:44.400 He is not showing up to these places as strongly as he used to be.

00:12:48.020 And he's losing.

00:12:49.240 He's been on the ballot in Iowa and New Hampshire, and he keeps losing.

00:12:53.500 So all of a sudden, Joe Biden then drops down to third.

00:12:57.520 You've got black voters in these states saying, gosh, Joe Biden was the number one guy.

00:13:01.040 He can't win any state that he's been on the ballot.

00:13:03.260 I guess our best shot is Bernie, who has been winning.

00:13:05.380 And our second best shot is Mike Bloomberg, who's not even on the ballot yet, but he's

00:13:09.280 spending a lot of money.

00:13:10.180 It looks like he's running to win it.

00:13:12.340 And Joe Biden is reacting in exactly the way you would expect.

00:13:15.260 He is sputtering and stammering.

00:13:17.200 And recently on the campaign trail, just yesterday, he forgot what office he's running for.

00:13:22.480 And you're the ones that sent Barack Obama to the presidency.

00:13:25.700 And I have a simple proposition here.

00:13:28.200 I'm here to ask you for your help.

00:13:30.280 Where I come from, you don't get far unless you ask.

00:13:33.360 My name's Joe Biden.

00:13:34.500 I'm a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate.

00:13:37.680 Look me over.

00:13:38.380 If you'd like what you see, help out.

00:13:39.600 If not, vote for the other by.

00:13:40.740 Give me a look, though, OK?

00:13:42.500 That's all I've really got to say to you.

00:13:45.640 What?

00:13:46.980 What just happened?

00:13:48.580 Forget what he just said.

00:13:50.360 What is he even doing?

00:13:51.920 What's firing in his head?

00:13:53.800 Joe Biden has not been in the Senate for 12 years.

00:13:58.660 A dozen years.

00:14:00.160 Remember, he was in the Senate.

00:14:01.840 Then he was the vice president after Obama won in 2008.

00:14:05.060 Then he did nothing for three or four years.

00:14:08.580 Now he's running for president again.

00:14:10.420 But he did run for Senate for a very long time.

00:14:12.360 He first ran for Senate in the 70s.

00:14:13.900 And he was there all the way through Anita Hill.

00:14:17.240 He was the judiciary chairman during Anita Hill.

00:14:19.300 Then he was there all the way through 2008.

00:14:20.700 So he's, I think he's just reverting back to his default mode, which is, hi, I'm Joe Biden.

00:14:27.520 I'm a total glad handing politician who doesn't stand for anything.

00:14:30.940 And I'm running for the state of Delaware.

00:14:32.680 I'm running for the Senate.

00:14:33.640 Vote for me.

00:14:34.340 Even the way he closes it was like a typical caricature of a politician from 20, 30 years ago.

00:14:42.520 I'm Joe Biden.

00:14:44.720 I'm asking for your vote.

00:14:45.740 If you don't like me, vote for the other Biden.

00:14:47.740 I get it.

00:14:48.840 If you don't like me, you should still vote for me because my name will be on the ballot.

00:14:52.540 Just give me a look.

00:14:53.580 All right.

00:14:54.080 I'm running for Senate.

00:14:54.900 You don't even know what you're running for.

00:14:58.160 So probably very few people are going to vote for you.

00:15:01.920 His campaign, I think, knows that this is falling apart.

00:15:04.980 Not just because he doesn't know how to speak on the campaign trail, also because his whole

00:15:11.900 strategy was predicated on crushing it in South Carolina.

00:15:16.460 And now it looks like he's headed for not only a weak performance.

00:15:22.600 I guess there's a chance he still wins, but he's neck and neck with Bernie right now.

00:15:25.700 There's actually a chance he loses South Carolina.

00:15:27.920 And Joe Biden said from the very beginning, he said, South Carolina is my firewall.

00:15:33.680 By the way, when you're a candidate running for president and you say that a state far

00:15:37.780 from now is your firewall, that is evidence of a weak campaign.

00:15:42.400 That's evidence that you think you're going to do badly in the earliest states, but you're

00:15:46.060 going to come back in the later early state.

00:15:48.940 And that's simply not what's happening here.

00:15:51.440 So he said it was the firewall.

00:15:53.040 He's now collapsing.

00:15:54.080 He's asked about this on CBS News.

00:15:56.800 And Joe Biden immediately denies that he ever called South Carolina the firewall.

00:16:01.360 South Carolina, though, was your firewall.

00:16:04.360 You've said it my firewall.

00:16:06.040 I've never said it.

00:16:06.760 The campaign has said it's your firewall.

00:16:07.840 No, it's not fire.

00:16:08.500 I said, I'm going to do well there.

00:16:10.520 And I'll do well there.

00:16:11.780 And I'll do well beyond there as well.

00:16:13.780 I never said it was my firewall.

00:16:15.300 Let me quote Joe Biden about a month ago.

00:16:20.060 I think I'll do well in Nevada.

00:16:22.420 And I think I have a real firewall in South Carolina.

00:16:25.820 It's a direct quote that he gave to the press less than a month ago.

00:16:33.180 And then we go into the Super Tuesday states that have a significant number of minorities

00:16:36.840 and African-Americans.

00:16:37.620 I think I have a real firewall in South Carolina.

00:16:41.160 I never said I have a firewall.

00:16:43.260 Yeah, I said, look, I said maybe I'd do well there.

00:16:45.820 But come on, you said I have a firewall.

00:16:47.360 No.

00:16:47.560 Now, Joe doesn't remember what he said.

00:16:50.940 Doesn't remember what office he's running for.

00:16:53.980 Doesn't remember what office he's not going to win.

00:16:58.580 I think he's starting to learn that.

00:17:01.520 He's starting to remember that part.

00:17:03.020 He's absolutely collapsing.

00:17:04.540 And so the question is, how on earth can the Democrats beat Trump?

00:17:08.240 If Bernie is the nominee, you've got a radical candidate out there.

00:17:13.060 So presumably you're going to have to balance that out with some kind of moderate.

00:17:16.100 However, the new chatter among the left-wing pundit class is that they're not going to

00:17:21.400 go for some kind of moderate.

00:17:22.260 They're actually going to go for the next most radical candidate that Bernie Sanders might

00:17:27.580 nominate Elizabeth Warren.

00:17:30.080 So there is a poll here from Zogby Analytics.

00:17:34.160 Their analyst, Jonathan Zogby, just reported that the Sanders-Warren ticket currently beats

00:17:42.920 President Trump and Mike Pence by 48 to 45 percent.

00:17:50.980 Sanders-Warren.

00:17:51.960 Could you imagine more of a nightmare?

00:17:55.320 Sanders-Warren.

00:17:56.260 It would be terrible because Bernie Sanders is pretty old.

00:18:02.280 So there's actually a chance that you had a President-Warren by the back door.

00:18:05.960 This guy, Zogby, believes that this is an easy way to beat President Trump.

00:18:13.760 No way.

00:18:15.040 No chance. 0.98

00:18:16.760 Elizabeth Warren is horribly unlikable. 0.93

00:18:19.800 The more people see Warren, the less people like her.

00:18:22.400 Remember, she was doing very, very well early on when she wasn't out there as much, and then 1.00

00:18:27.000 she did all those stupid social media videos. 1.00

00:18:29.340 Then she came out with her health care plan, and she tanked. 1.00

00:18:32.400 The more people see of her, the less they like her.

00:18:34.760 VP picks usually don't matter.

00:18:37.320 People really just vote on the President.

00:18:39.460 However, here it actually could hurt Bernie because he just actually had a heart attack

00:18:44.180 on the campaign trail, and he's now refusing to release his medical records.

00:18:47.460 So who knows how the guy's ticker is doing?

00:18:50.000 Who knows how long he's going to be with us?

00:18:51.920 Hopefully for a very long time, but still, we don't know about the guy's health.

00:18:55.380 Everything we do know doesn't look good.

00:18:57.160 So you've got a serious chance that this Vice President becomes President, and Elizabeth

00:19:01.740 Warren is simply awful.

00:19:05.040 It's not even like a sexist thing. 0.96

00:19:07.820 Everyone says whenever you criticize Liz Warren, it's sexist. 0.67

00:19:11.320 Women like her least of all. 1.00

00:19:13.260 She doesn't vote very well among women. 1.00

00:19:16.720 Bernie Sanders, at least he is honest, right?

00:19:21.240 He's terrible and he's dangerous, but he's honest.

00:19:23.300 We'll get to that in a second because he's doubling and tripling down on his support of 0.93

00:19:27.740 Fidel Castro and other communist thugs, but he's not the only Democrat to do that.

00:19:32.500 We'll get to that in a second.

00:19:33.380 First, a question from the audience.

00:19:36.220 From A, I'm in a Super Tuesday state.

00:19:39.240 Should I attend the GOP primary and show my support for the president, or should I vote

00:19:43.640 Bernie in the Democratic primary and sabotage the left?

00:19:47.940 Very, very tricky question.

00:19:49.900 President Trump is going to win the primary.

00:19:52.200 I don't think you need to worry about that.

00:19:54.340 If some states are closed primaries, so you can only vote for the party that you're registered

00:19:58.700 in, which seems to me to make sense, some states are open primaries, so a Republican

00:20:04.000 can vote in the Democratic primary and vice versa.

00:20:06.260 Listen, my bet is on Bernie.

00:20:10.120 Okay, I think conservatives should want Bernie to be the nominee.

00:20:14.440 I think he does have the least chance of being elected in November.

00:20:17.640 I'm not saying he has no chance.

00:20:19.260 I don't want to get cocky here.

00:20:20.760 There is, this is a risky bet because if we take this risk and we lose, all of a sudden

00:20:26.840 you've got a communist president.

00:20:28.240 At least a very strong socialist president, and that's pretty scary.

00:20:32.780 However, my other theory is that Bernie Sanders is pretty much just as radical as the other

00:20:38.860 Democrats.

00:20:39.980 Actually, some Democrats are even more radical than Bernie.

00:20:42.280 It's just that Bernie is more honest about it.

00:20:44.660 So for me, I'm here to be entertained.

00:20:46.640 I'm here for an honest vote, and I want to sabotage the left.

00:20:49.800 So look, if you made it into the Democratic primary, you voted for Bernie, and we got

00:20:55.020 the battle that America deserves, Trump versus Bernie, you know, there are worse things in

00:20:58.680 the world.

00:21:00.500 Bernie is honest, okay?

00:21:03.800 And I like the honest fight because I think we win the honest fight.

00:21:08.140 Bernie, you know, he said he liked Fidel Castro.

00:21:10.800 Then they asked him about this on 60 Minutes.

00:21:12.760 He said he really liked Fidel Castro.

00:21:14.040 Then they keep asking him about it.

00:21:16.060 He keeps defending Fidel Castro.

00:21:19.220 This line of attack is not totally fair to Bernie, okay?

00:21:24.120 Because Bernie is just saying what other Democrats have said.

00:21:27.420 He's just saying it more honestly and more forcefully.

00:21:30.520 Even Barack Obama, not that long ago, just a few years ago, was defending Fidel Castro with

00:21:39.280 the same talking points that Bernie Sanders used.

00:21:41.700 Oh, they have good health care in Cuba.

00:21:43.000 Oh, they have good literacy programs in Cuba.

00:21:45.220 If you just read a transcript of what Barack Obama said about Castro and what Bernie Sanders

00:21:50.460 said, you wouldn't be able to tell them apart.

00:21:52.660 I said this to President Castro in Cuba.

00:21:56.560 I said, look, you've made great progress in educating young people.

00:22:02.300 Every child in Cuba gets a basic education.

00:22:05.740 That's a huge improvement from where it was.

00:22:08.580 Medical care.

00:22:11.040 You know, the life expectancy of Cubans is equivalent to the United States, despite it 1.00

00:22:17.660 being a very poor country because they have access to health care.

00:22:20.160 That's a huge achievement.

00:22:21.480 They should be congratulated.

00:22:22.500 But you drive around Havana and this economy is not working.

00:22:28.440 So as usual, Barack Obama totally misrepresenting things, not surprising at all.

00:22:33.660 But he's saying the same thing as Bernie.

00:22:38.620 They're both wrong because, first of all, Cuba cooks the books on their health care. 1.00

00:22:45.260 And part of the reason that they have a relatively high life expectancy is because they do everything

00:22:50.120 they can to prevent infant mortality to make sure that that number looks pretty good.

00:22:54.660 But I've been around Havana with Cubans.

00:22:57.640 They've pointed to that great Havana hospital.

00:23:00.060 They say, there's the Havana hospital.

00:23:01.940 Universal.

00:23:02.580 Anybody can go into it.

00:23:04.400 Of course, there's no medicine when you go in.

00:23:06.780 You've got to bring your own medicine.

00:23:08.240 You've got to bring your own toilet paper.

00:23:10.320 These are direct quotes from people in Havana.

00:23:12.580 But yeah, anybody can go in there.

00:23:14.040 How great, right?

00:23:17.280 Still, Barack Obama says the same thing.

00:23:20.000 How come we don't give him as much guff about it as Bernie Sanders?

00:23:23.200 Because Barack Obama was a little slicker.

00:23:25.160 He was a little oilier.

00:23:26.300 I like the honest battle.

00:23:28.520 It's not just Barack Obama either.

00:23:29.900 Here's what the media were saying about Fidel Castro when he died just a few years ago.

00:23:33.960 Declared socialist, he dramatically improved health care and literacy.

00:23:37.760 I think he will be revered as someone who brought education and social services and medical care to all of his people.

00:23:47.900 Well, Fidel Castro was considered, even to this date, the George Washington of his country.

00:23:53.940 There is no doubt that he is considered here a revolutionary hero, not only in Cuba, but in many places around the world, and also for his defiance of the United States.

00:24:04.860 You know, that's the media for you.

00:24:08.080 That's, by the way, that last part isn't true either.

00:24:10.060 The people in Cuba despised Fidel Castro, every single person that I talked to.

00:24:15.320 But the whole left, the whole Democratic Party has been trending this way for a very long time.

00:24:20.040 They've been trending hard left.

00:24:21.500 And now they're just being more honest about it.

00:24:26.140 Left-wing candidates for the last hundred years would hide the fact that they were socialists.

00:24:31.040 We all kind of suspected they were deep-down socialists, but they would hide it.

00:24:36.160 They would protest.

00:24:36.820 They would say, how dare you?

00:24:38.080 How offensive that you would call me a socialist.

00:24:40.460 It was considered a really offensive thing, a real insult.

00:24:44.660 Same thing with atheism.

00:24:45.820 They would, if you called someone an atheist, they'd say, how dare you?

00:24:48.720 And most of them were atheists, but they would say, no, you couldn't possibly call me that.

00:24:52.420 That's when it was considered socially unacceptable to be an atheist and a socialist.

00:24:57.860 Now it's socially preferable.

00:25:00.160 And so now they're a little bit more open about it.

00:25:02.380 You know, when you think about how Joe McCarthy is taught in schools, people say Joe McCarthy

00:25:09.600 was so terrible, he so crossed the line, he had no dignity, he had no shame, because he

00:25:17.000 accused people of being socialists.

00:25:19.860 And very often they were socialists.

00:25:22.140 And we caught many socialists working in the government.

00:25:26.100 Now you've got people bragging about it.

00:25:27.860 So if it's okay to be a socialist, why was, why was it so terrible when Joe McCarthy would

00:25:32.080 accuse people of that?

00:25:33.520 Now they're admitting it.

00:25:34.840 Now they're even admitting their un-American-ness.

00:25:38.420 Until yesterday, if I called Ilhan Omar, that squad member, freshman representative, if I 0.84

00:25:44.300 called her un-American, I would be pilloried as racist, xenophobic, bigoted, hateful.

00:25:52.600 Well, President Trump implied that she was non-American. 0.83

00:25:56.100 When he sent out that tweet, he said, you should go back to your countries.

00:25:58.580 People went after him for it.

00:26:00.460 They went, they were so upset that he would say this to somebody like Ilhan Omar.

00:26:04.720 Well, it turns out that he was right by her own admission.

00:26:08.060 Ilhan Omar yesterday tweeted out, I am hijabi, Muslim, black, foreign-born, refugee, Somali, 0.89

00:26:21.080 easily triggering conservatives, right-wing bloggers, anti-Muslim bigots, tinfoil conspiracy 0.98

00:26:26.500 theorists, birthers, pay me money to bash Muslim fraudsters, pro-occupation groups, and 0.97

00:26:31.520 every single xenophobe since 2016. 0.97

00:26:33.260 It's a long list.

00:26:36.940 Notice anything missing on that list?

00:26:39.760 I am hijabi, Muslim, black, foreign-born, refugee, Somali.

00:26:45.440 She never says she's American.

00:26:48.260 She doesn't consider herself American.

00:26:52.720 It's not even that she doesn't mention nations on that list.

00:26:55.200 She does, Somali.

00:26:55.980 She considers herself Somali, but not American.

00:26:59.120 So when people say, go back to your country, that's considered bigoted, except it's by her

00:27:03.240 own admission that her country is Somali, not American.

00:27:08.080 That is radical stuff.

00:27:11.080 If you ever question somebody's patriotism, that was considered off the table, right?

00:27:17.440 But what about when the candidates themselves are questioning their own patriotism?

00:27:21.620 If you called someone a socialist off the table, what if the candidates themselves are calling

00:27:25.040 themselves socialists?

00:27:27.540 I prefer that battle.

00:27:29.280 I prefer that honest fight, because then Americans have an honest choice.

00:27:31.960 We have a question come in from a listener, from KC.

00:27:36.100 What are the odds Ilhan Omar is Bernie's VP choice?

00:27:39.680 Probably a step too far.

00:27:43.000 I think it's a little low.

00:27:43.900 I think she's over 35, so she's constitutionally allowed to do it. 0.99

00:27:48.500 I bet that's a little over the line for the Democratic Party.

00:27:52.180 I don't think they're going to let them get two total radicals out there.

00:27:56.580 I think the most radical you're going to be allowed to get is somebody like Elizabeth Warren,

00:27:59.940 who obviously checks the boxes, right?

00:28:02.420 She's got some left-wing credentials. 1.00

00:28:05.680 She's a woman, and she's at least one 1,024th Native American, so she checks the intersectionality 0.95

00:28:10.580 boxes as well.

00:28:12.240 Ilhan Omar just has too many legal questions surrounding her, especially the suggestion 0.97

00:28:20.160 that seems very likely that she married her brother for immigration purposes.

00:28:26.600 I know that the Democrats have never been the party of family values, but if you start

00:28:31.440 promoting people who marry their own brothers, well, maybe that's the way that they can recover 0.99

00:28:35.840 family values.

00:28:36.740 I guess in a certain sense, that's the most family value you can have.

00:28:39.860 I still don't think it would play well in Peoria, so I think luckily we have avoided that.

00:28:44.500 Although, frankly, we live in the age of Trump.

00:28:47.300 We live in the age of Bernie soaring to the nomination.

00:28:50.460 Anything can happen.

00:28:51.660 We've got a lot more to get to.

00:28:52.480 We've got to get to Harvey Weinstein, which we will in just one second.

00:28:55.120 But I want to bring your attention to a possibly overlooked but highly valued Daily Wire membership

00:29:48.960 We'll be right back with a lot more.

00:29:50.040 The trial of the century.

00:30:04.380 Harvey Weinstein.

00:30:06.980 Will he be found guilty for leading the Me Too crimes of Hollywood, or will he walk?

00:30:13.800 Harvey Weinstein was found guilty.

00:30:16.700 A little bit.

00:30:17.240 He wasn't found guilty on all of his counts.

00:30:19.340 He was found guilty on a couple of them.

00:30:22.880 He's looking at 5 to 29 years in prison.

00:30:26.340 So at the long end, this could be a life sentence for Harvey.

00:30:29.600 The Harvey Weinstein verdict matters not just because what it says about our legal system,

00:30:34.820 but what it says about the relationship of our legal system to our culture.

00:30:39.460 That's the part that nobody's talking about, but that's actually the only really interesting

00:30:42.540 part of the case.

00:30:43.180 So the jury took five days to deliberate, and they found Weinstein was guilty of third

00:30:48.280 degree rape and criminal sexual act, but the jury acquitted Weinstein on the three other

00:30:54.900 counts, which included the most serious counts, predatory sexual assault.

00:31:00.340 So they got him on the lower end.

00:31:02.180 They didn't get him on the higher end.

00:31:04.260 This was actually a somewhat controversial case.

00:31:06.200 I know that Harvey Weinstein is just an absolute monster who, in the light of perfect moral

00:31:12.080 justice, would be put down like old Yeller, but in terms of the legal aspect of it, it

00:31:17.820 was a little bit controversial.

00:31:20.280 Why?

00:31:20.940 Because Weinstein allegedly raped these women or assaulted them or abused them, but he had 0.95

00:31:26.940 a relationship with them after the assaults. 0.56

00:31:30.000 So you would see these emails and messages between them that were very nice between both of them.

00:31:36.200 The most prominent incidents that we saw took place, not in a dark alleyway, they took place

00:31:41.700 in Harvey Weinstein's hotel rooms.

00:31:44.080 And they would happen over years, and the women would keep coming back. 0.96

00:31:47.320 So there was a real question over whether or not Harvey Weinstein would get off, because

00:31:51.340 he'd say, look, I've had relationships with these women for years. 1.00

00:31:54.260 If I raped them, why did they keep visiting me and being nice to me and going to my hotel room?

00:31:59.680 When the verdict was read, if you saw it in the courtroom, Weinstein looked shocked. 0.96

00:32:04.540 He genuinely couldn't believe it.

00:32:07.200 He was muttering to his lawyers, I'm innocent.

00:32:09.720 I'm innocent.

00:32:10.260 How can this happen in America?

00:32:11.860 The actual, the funniest moment of the whole trial is that Harvey Weinstein was so shocked

00:32:15.880 when the verdict was read that when he walked out of the courtroom, he forgot to take his walker.

00:32:20.680 So for the whole trial, he's been pretending that he's really old and decrepit and handicapped.

00:32:25.660 So he would use this walker and he could barely walk up the stairs.

00:32:29.660 And then when the verdict was read and he was found guilty, he's like, all right, well,

00:32:32.820 I guess I don't need that walker anymore.

00:32:34.140 Do, do, do, do, do, do.

00:32:35.340 And he just walks right out there. 0.99

00:32:37.740 Obviously, Harvey Weinstein is a sicko and should be kept very far away from polite society. 0.96

00:32:44.520 For many, the question remained unclear as to whether he committed the crimes that he was 0.99

00:32:48.720 being accused of, right?

00:32:50.320 Took the, took the jury five days and they only got him on the two lower counts.

00:32:55.140 The, the aspect that matters here is less the legal aspect, more the cultural aspect.

00:33:02.620 Harvey Weinstein had to be punished.

00:33:05.920 Okay.

00:33:06.500 Harvey Weinstein, regardless of what the jury found, regardless of any aspect here, Harvey

00:33:11.620 had to be punished.

00:33:13.660 It was far from clear that he violated the law of the land.

00:33:17.220 Many analysts thought he'd be acquitted, but it was very clear that Harvey violated the moral

00:33:21.340 law.

00:33:21.640 And our culture is extremely permissive when it comes to that sort of thing, right?

00:33:25.540 We live in a permissive culture where we say, oh, if it doesn't obviously hurt anybody else,

00:33:30.660 it's okay.

00:33:31.420 You can do whatever you want.

00:33:32.980 You've got your personal autonomy.

00:33:34.700 You own your body. 0.79

00:33:35.600 Do whatever you like.

00:33:37.420 But justice must be served.

00:33:39.860 And so even if Weinstein didn't commit the specific crimes that he was accused of, he was

00:33:45.180 going to be punished.

00:33:47.420 You see this from the perspective of rights all the time in politics, right?

00:33:51.640 The Constitution affords us lots of different rights.

00:33:56.020 The Constitution also is built for a moral and religious people.

00:33:59.780 That's according to John Adams, right?

00:34:01.940 The Constitution is not fit for people who are not moral and religious. 1.00

00:34:05.880 So as moral and religious rigidity has fallen away, often through a concerted effort in our

00:34:12.400 culture, the effect of that has not been more freedom.

00:34:16.060 That's what they promised us in the 60s, right?

00:34:17.840 They said, look, we've got a very permissive legal system and we've got this rigid morality.

00:34:23.440 So just get rid of your moral discipline and then you'll be very free.

00:34:27.220 Finally, you'll be in control of yourself.

00:34:29.480 Paradoxically, though, the effect of that has been less freedom.

00:34:32.700 As people have become less morally disciplined, the government has stepped in to discipline them.

00:34:38.280 The reason for that is that order must be preserved.

00:34:43.540 So as a result, we lose our personal discipline.

00:34:46.160 We lose our local and our family discipline.

00:34:48.560 The effect of that is endless regulations, new speech codes, now an ever-changing sexual

00:34:53.740 ethic that you see at workplaces and campuses.

00:34:56.020 It's because societies need order.

00:34:59.920 So either we could discipline ourselves or we will have discipline imposed from above.

00:35:05.460 Either Harvey Weinstein can act like a civilized human being or he's going to go to the clink.

00:35:10.700 And that doesn't matter how well his lawyers can argue that he did not violate the law.

00:35:17.180 Speaking of sexual ethics, now this is this left-wing outlet.

00:35:21.940 They post all these little videos all over social media.

00:35:24.540 They have a new cause.

00:35:25.940 They're following Joaquin Phoenix's speech recently where he called to end the terrible,

00:35:32.440 awful cruelty of drinking milk, right?

00:35:34.880 It's all about animal rights.

00:35:36.760 Now this has come out with one that talks about how fish actually on some level can feel pain.

00:35:42.980 And that's why it's so unthinkable that we should ever pick them up with our little hooks

00:35:47.940 and eat them.

00:35:48.980 Here's now this.

00:35:50.380 You probably don't spend a lot of time thinking about fish.

00:35:53.680 And when you do, it's likely in the context of dinner.

00:35:57.240 Humans don't relate very easily to fish.

00:35:59.880 They're so different from us, they might as well be aliens.

00:36:03.020 It's hard for us to attribute thoughts, emotions or any kind of inner life to them.

00:36:08.560 For many of us, they might as well be plants.

00:36:11.260 Or furniture.

00:36:12.820 This is a big problem for fish.

00:36:14.600 Because our being unable to relate to these creatures as live, conscious beings means

00:36:20.520 that many of us can't even conceive of them having the most basic element of sentience,

00:36:25.520 the ability to feel pain.

00:36:27.480 So we treat them as if they didn't.

00:36:29.700 But fish do feel pain.

00:36:31.880 Scientists have demonstrated this decisively.

00:36:34.780 Fish have the same pain receptors as humans do.

00:36:37.120 And they act just like any animal would when those receptors are activated.

00:36:41.400 The obliviousness is simply shocking.

00:36:46.260 Take the exact same video, the same script, and replace fish with babies.

00:36:51.540 You know, we can't really relate to unborn babies.

00:36:57.520 We think they're different than us.

00:36:59.840 But actually, they are a lot more like us than you think.

00:37:04.440 Unborn babies are definitely a lot more like us than fish are.

00:37:07.500 Unborn babies actually can feel pain by at least as early as 20 weeks.

00:37:12.160 And in some senses, as early as 7 weeks.

00:37:15.600 Maybe even earlier.

00:37:17.400 And that's why we need to start thinking of unborn babies more like humans.

00:37:21.340 Which is what they obviously are.

00:37:23.960 It's such a bizarre characteristic of the left.

00:37:28.140 That they care so much for the little delta smelt.

00:37:32.800 For the little fish.

00:37:33.620 For the milk.

00:37:35.460 But they don't care that much for people.

00:37:38.120 You know, they always care so much for humanity.

00:37:40.060 But they don't care all that much for actual humans.

00:37:43.780 But I think animal rights is an interesting angle to talk about this issue of abortion.

00:37:49.180 Because the more and more we're learning about the brain.

00:37:54.020 The more we're learning about sentience and consciousness.

00:37:56.800 The more we can apply that to human beings as well.

00:38:01.460 In the short term, what that means is you should never take seriously these left wing arguments about animal rights.

00:38:08.180 If those people are not also pro-life.

00:38:12.000 You've got, you should, I don't think that being pro-life means that you have to become a vegan.

00:38:17.060 Far from that.

00:38:18.260 But certainly it is the case that if you are a vegan, you have to be pro-life.

00:38:21.600 Because the kind of ethics, bioethics that surround veganism are so much more narrow that you've absolutely got to apply that.

00:38:32.760 They're so much more rigid that you've absolutely got to apply that to human beings. 0.90

00:38:37.800 Because otherwise it looks ridiculous. 0.98

00:38:39.440 Think about how ridiculous you have to be to shed tears like Joaquin Phoenix over the milk. 0.99

00:38:45.140 Or to shed tears over a fish. 0.94

00:38:46.880 Which, by the way, the science is very inconclusive that fish can feel any sort of pain.

00:38:50.840 But let's even say that it's true.

00:38:53.580 Think about how crazy and absurd you've got to look to shed tears over a little flounder. 0.70

00:38:58.840 But to be perfectly fine just chopping up a baby. 0.74

00:39:02.100 Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. 0.99

00:39:04.500 We've got to get to the dumbest article on the internet today. 0.99

00:39:08.700 This is about the CIA. 0.98

00:39:13.620 Care of the New York Times.

00:39:15.400 And this is so funny.

00:39:16.700 I mean this is really just the leftist tears article of the day.

00:39:21.560 The left is now defending the CIA.

00:39:24.560 For the vast majority of the history of the CIA, the left has been calling for it to be abolished.

00:39:30.160 Now, President Trump is in charge.

00:39:33.780 And he's appointed a new acting director of national intelligence.

00:39:37.280 So a new acting top spy who is a very impressive person, Richard Grinnell.

00:39:42.140 He was the ambassador to Germany.

00:39:43.700 He's the longest serving spokesman at the UN.

00:39:45.800 He's got a great record.

00:39:47.780 And there's been some suggestion that Grinnell is going to weed out some bad actors in the intelligence community.

00:39:54.840 The left is furious.

00:39:55.680 Here it is from Jane Harman in the New York Times.

00:40:00.160 She is a former Democratic congressman.

00:40:03.500 Said, I helped create the nation's top spy job.

00:40:05.860 It's about to be destroyed.

00:40:08.000 There's a lot of blah, blah, blah.

00:40:09.400 Then it gets to the money line.

00:40:11.540 While our intelligence community is the most impressive in the world, we can't see and know everything.

00:40:15.840 A purge of our best and brightest intelligence officers will signal to them that new management is coming and current relationships aren't useful any longer.

00:40:26.720 Allied services also won't trust us if our own officers face constant pressure to politicize intelligence.

00:40:33.100 A so-called house clearing could damage our intelligence abilities for at least a generation.

00:40:38.480 Recruitment and retention will, of course, plummet.

00:40:41.100 And those officers and analysts left won't have the mentorship or the experience to ensure our assessments are based on truth.

00:40:51.440 Jane Harman, a Democrat representing California in the Congress.

00:40:56.020 Where to begin?

00:40:58.080 The issue of politicizing intelligence is crazy.

00:41:02.080 The intelligence apparatus serves in our political system.

00:41:05.760 It's intrinsically politicized.

00:41:07.800 But what she's really saying is we should not allow the people who govern themselves, who elect our representatives, to have any say over the intelligence apparatus.

00:41:18.380 She's saying the intelligence apparatus, the deep state or part of it, should operate without any accountability to the people whatsoever.

00:41:25.880 Because we might miss out on some clues if we have any oversight whatsoever.

00:41:29.820 Now, to be clear, there's no evidence that Richard Grinnell or Donald Trump or anybody else is going to gut the intelligence apparatus.

00:41:36.120 They're just going to fire some bad guys if the guys are shown to be bad.

00:41:39.600 And we've seen that there have been some shenanigans up in the intelligence community in recent years.

00:41:45.240 That's all.

00:41:47.020 And even the suggestion that they would fire the worst employees, the most corrupt employees, that creates all this pushback.

00:41:56.640 This is the deep state.

00:41:59.860 This is what the Democrats want.

00:42:02.200 You know, there is such an irony here because the Democrats say that they want this sort of democratic ideal where the majority rules and we've got power to the people.

00:42:13.160 But in practice, that's not what they want.

00:42:14.940 In practice, what they want to do is take rights away from people and when they get into power, install a bunch of technocratic experts who know how to run your life better than you know how to run your life and who are sitting on panels and boards and agencies that have no accountability whatsoever.

00:42:28.940 That's the democratic ideal.

00:42:30.640 And if the left wins this election, you're going to see that hardened.

00:42:35.600 You're going to see it harder to take away.

00:42:37.420 The fact that now the intelligence community, which is not that old, it's an invention of the last hundred years, that we can't even fire bad people within it and that when you try to do it, even the left, which has pretended for years that they hate the intelligence community, are the ones defending them.

00:42:55.720 That tells you that Ronald Reagan was right when he said that a federal job, a federal agency is the nearest thing to eternal life on earth.

00:43:03.820 We've got to be very, very careful about that because if the left wins in this year's elections, you're going to see that hardened.

00:43:11.860 It's going to be even more difficult to fire those bad people.

00:43:16.040 Last question before we go from TZ.

00:43:18.300 What, who is in that picture on the shelf?

00:43:20.700 Some bearded guy?

00:43:21.660 You know, I have absolutely no idea who that is.

00:43:25.380 It seems like so long ago.

00:43:27.240 I think I know that person, but I don't, can't quite place him.

00:43:30.500 That does bring us, though, to a quick thank you that I have to make because today is our 500th episode, which is an absolutely shocking number, mostly shocking to Ben, who was hoping that he would be able to can us somewhere around episode 12.

00:43:44.960 But it's also shocking to me, and I just want to take a moment to thank everyone for listening.

00:43:49.360 The show has grown an order of magnitude and many multiples in size since our early episodes, and it is because of all of you who tune in and post it around the internet and send it around to your friends.

00:44:00.520 When we started, I was but a wee blank book author, and thanks to all of you who have listened in, we've been able to launch so many new projects.

00:44:09.380 The YAF Campus Tours, Three Seasons of Another Kingdom, The Book Club Show at PragerU, and obviously most recently, Verdict with Ted Cruz, which incredibly rose to become the number one podcast on the charts for two weeks.

00:44:20.820 And I'm actually flying out this afternoon to D.C. to start filming that again.

00:44:24.100 The Senator and I are going to be doing a live show at CPAC this year, so if you're in Washington, I hope you will come out.

00:44:29.600 And if I don't see you there, then I'll look forward to meeting you around the country on the YAF Tour, which is going to kick off in about a week or so.

00:44:36.340 And if I miss you there, too, where are you? Where do you live?

00:44:39.880 I will at least look forward to hearing from you in the mailbag.

00:44:43.440 So get those questions in. The mailbag will be on Thursday.

00:44:45.960 Thank you again for these first 500 episodes, and I look forward to 500 more.
