00:00:30.320 As more and more people around the country get arrested for leaving their homes,

00:00:34.540 as we approach the 45th day since President Trump told us to hunker down for 15 days to slow the spread,

00:00:41.300 some people are beginning to wonder if these lockdowns are destroying our liberty.

00:00:45.400 Unfortunately, our liberty problems run a lot deeper than being locked in your house for a few weeks,

00:00:49.660 and both sides of the aisle are to blame.

00:00:52.080 Then, more evidence emerges that Joe Biden got handsy with the staffer in the 90s,

00:00:56.540 as the mainstream media steadfastly and courageously refuse to ask him any questions about it.

00:01:02.840 The government confirms the existence of UFOs, okay,

00:01:05.760 and Nancy Pelosi wants to bribe you with your own money. 1.00

00:01:08.840 All that and more.

00:01:09.880 I'm Michael Knowles, and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:11.720 Lots of worries about our liberty.

00:01:23.540 You'd think, remember 15 days to slow the spread?

00:01:26.440 Then it was, what would it become, 20 days, 25, 30, 35?

00:01:29.700 I think we're about 45 days now.

00:01:32.740 We have slowed the spread, and yet some politicians don't want to lighten up at all.

00:01:38.260 We will get to those incursions, because I think some people are freaking out about a loss of liberty

00:01:43.340 because of these particular regulations.

00:01:46.440 The problem is a lot deeper than that.

00:01:48.740 We'll get to that in a moment.

00:01:49.500 First, I've got to thank our friends over at Books.

00:01:52.700 If you can't be with your mother this Mother's Day, and chances are you probably can't,

00:01:57.260 then flowers are the perfect thing to send her.

00:01:59.400 I just put in my Mother's Day orders, and you should, too.

00:02:04.000 Maybe you can't give mom a hug.

00:02:05.500 You can always send flowers from the Books Company.

00:02:08.180 Books, what's Books stand for?

00:02:09.880 It's short for bouquet.

00:02:11.060 Doesn't that make sense?

00:02:12.160 Books are responsibly sourced from some of the world's finest eco-friendly farms,

00:02:16.180 even farms on the sides of volcanoes.

00:02:19.460 Wow.

00:02:20.180 So, flowers stay fresher longer.

00:02:22.540 Did you know that flowers and plants have been proven to reduce stress and boost productivity?

00:02:27.020 Yeah, duh.

00:02:27.660 Also, they look nice, and they smell nice.

00:02:30.180 Having flowers in the home is just something civilized people should do. 0.86

00:02:33.560 So, you can send those flowers to your mom, your wife, your grandma, a dog mom, 0.70

00:02:38.280 or you can treat yourself.

00:02:40.180 And I am a huge proponent of treating yourself to flowers.

00:02:43.060 It just makes everything nicer in the house.

00:03:02.560 I think we have fallen from reasonable lockdown measures into total farce.

00:03:13.840 We did that over the weekend in Oxnard, California,

00:03:19.280 in Gavin Newsom's left-wing hellscape of California.

00:03:23.960 In Oxnard, some people went to the beaches.

00:03:28.780 The beaches are kind of opening up a little bit in California.

00:03:32.320 A 93-year-old couple went to the beach.

00:03:35.920 They stayed far away from everybody, totally socially distanced,

00:03:40.700 and they sat down on some beach chairs in the sand.

00:03:44.700 And a mounted police officer on a giant horse comes trotting over to them and says,

00:03:51.200 Hey, you, you can't sit in that chair. 1.00

00:03:55.580 This is Gavin Newsom's California.

00:03:57.500 He ordered the couple out of the chairs.

00:04:00.280 They were allowed to sit in the sand,

00:04:01.700 but they were not allowed to sit in the chairs

00:04:03.680 because apparently letting 93-year-olds sit in chairs spreads coronavirus.

00:04:07.680 But if they sit in the sand, they're okay.

00:04:09.400 Here's the clip.

00:04:10.040 I'll narrate because it's a little hard to hear the audio.

00:04:14.700 Guy comes on over there on the horse.

00:04:17.300 They're old people! 1.00

00:04:19.300 You can hear an onlooker says,

00:04:21.380 They're old people! 1.00

00:04:22.140 Not exactly the most polite thing to say.

00:04:24.660 The 93-year-old guy kind of gets out of the chair, stands up.

00:04:27.600 They're resting from their walking limits,

00:04:31.260 but they don't want chairs.

00:04:33.240 They don't want tents.

00:04:34.500 Cops says, They don't want chairs. 0.95

00:04:35.820 Sorry.

00:04:37.920 Chairs are permanent.

00:04:39.020 The sand is temporary.

00:04:40.640 Because luckily some younger people are walking. 0.97

00:04:44.700 Over there saying, How old are you?

00:04:46.140 It's kind of a rude thing to ask a woman, 1.00

00:04:47.680 but they're saying, They're old people, officer.

00:04:49.600 What are you doing?

00:04:50.640 Are you insane that you're going to tell 93-year-olds

00:04:53.940 they can't sit in a chair?

00:04:55.160 And of course, this is insane.

00:04:57.820 But this is the state that we've come to

00:05:00.140 in these power grab cities.

00:05:05.220 That now we, look, I get it.

00:05:08.420 The leftists and the experts and the politicians

00:05:11.120 are embarrassed that they got this so wrong.

00:05:13.160 They said it would be 2.2 million dead in America.

00:05:16.300 They said it may be 4 million dead in America.

00:05:18.320 Then they revised that down to half a million.

00:05:20.140 Then they revised it down to 200,000.

00:05:21.520 Then it was 100,000.

00:05:22.340 Now they're estimating between 60 and 100,000.

00:05:26.520 That's good news, right?

00:05:27.720 We've lowered the death toll projections

00:05:30.760 by more than an order of magnitude.

00:05:32.940 But they're trying to justify it any way they can.

00:05:36.540 So they say, You can't go out.

00:05:37.920 You can't go to work.

00:05:38.820 You can't go to the beaches.

00:05:40.060 Even if you can go to the beaches,

00:05:41.420 because obviously there's no reason

00:05:42.540 that you can't go to the beaches,

00:05:43.680 especially if you're socially distanced.

00:05:45.040 You can't sit in a chair, Grandma.

00:05:47.360 All right?

00:05:47.820 This is disgusting stuff.

00:05:49.240 And if we still had a backbone as a people,

00:05:51.520 if we still had any sense of liberty,

00:05:53.400 not in the shallow sense of let me do exactly what I want to do,

00:05:57.580 but in the sense of being responsible people,

00:06:01.480 having the great traditions of Western liberty,

00:06:05.800 if we still had that,

00:06:07.000 if we were still Americans, damn it,

00:06:09.200 we wouldn't put up with this kind of thing.

00:06:11.300 But instead, we're being told from paternalistic politicians

00:06:15.020 that we've got to do exactly what they say,

00:06:17.280 no matter how arbitrary,

00:06:18.660 or they're going to take away from us

00:06:20.460 even the few liberties that we still have remaining.

00:06:22.920 That's what we're getting from Governor Patrick Bateman.

00:06:25.900 I'm sorry, Governor Gavin Newsom.

00:06:28.420 Governor Gavin Newsom comes out and he says,

00:06:30.420 Look, we're willing to lighten up a little bit

00:06:32.720 on some of these regs,

00:06:34.260 but you have to do exactly what I say.

00:06:35.960 And if you don't do exactly what I say,

00:06:37.320 then we're going to tighten up again.

00:06:39.520 The reality is we are just a few weeks away,

00:06:42.220 not months away from making measurable

00:06:46.140 and meaningful changes to our stay-at-home order.

00:06:50.500 That is a very optimistic point to emphasize.

00:06:53.840 However, that's driven by data.

00:06:56.640 It's driven by behavior.

00:06:58.580 And as we change our behavior,

00:07:00.360 we can impact the science, the health, and the data.

00:07:04.060 We have to manage and augment our behavior.

00:07:07.200 And that's why I cannot impress upon you more

00:07:09.200 to those Californians watching

00:07:11.460 that we can't see the images like we saw,

00:07:14.740 particularly on Saturday in Newport Beach

00:07:17.020 and elsewhere in the state of California.

00:07:19.660 The message is very clear, right?

00:07:21.460 The message is,

00:07:23.080 Be good little boys and girls,

00:07:25.080 and maybe I'll let you go to the beach sometimes.

00:07:27.680 But if you're not, I'm turning this car around

00:07:30.080 and we're going straight home.

00:07:31.420 Okay, Daddy Newsom.

00:07:32.820 Okay, well, I promise I'll be a good little boy.

00:07:35.220 Just let me go to work, please.

00:07:36.840 Let me maybe walk to the beach or something.

00:07:40.040 Give me a break.

00:07:40.640 Like, this guy, man.

00:07:42.700 Also, I cannot watch Gavin Newsom speak

00:07:45.940 without getting just pure American psycho vibes.

00:07:49.540 Like, every time, I know he opened his mouth

00:07:51.240 and he said, look, we need to social distance

00:07:53.020 and change our behavior

00:07:54.420 because then we can go to the beach.

00:07:55.740 All I could hear was,

00:07:57.860 do you like Huey Lewis in the news?

00:07:59.780 It's not just about the pleasures of conformity

00:08:01.500 and the importance of trends.

00:08:02.360 It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

00:08:04.400 That's all I'm getting is just pure Patrick Bateman from him.

00:08:08.740 And it's a psycho message that he has for all of his constituents.

00:08:14.040 We want to reopen.

00:08:15.320 We're going to reopen the beaches,

00:08:16.180 but you've got to change your behavior, little boys and girls.

00:08:20.220 Something tells me our grandparents would not have stood

00:08:22.800 for this kind of condescension from the politicians.

00:08:26.520 This kind of arbitrary flex of power.

00:08:32.040 Because virtually every conservative I've talked to

00:08:35.260 has not disputed that the states have police powers.

00:08:39.360 I'm not disputing that.

00:08:40.320 They do have police powers, especially during a pandemic.

00:08:43.040 No one's disputing that the local mayors do

00:08:44.960 or frankly, even that the president does.

00:08:47.380 What we are against is arbitrary exercises in power

00:08:51.620 that don't do anything to actually protect the public health.

00:08:56.000 And day by day, it's becoming clearer

00:08:58.100 that that's what we're seeing here.

00:08:59.720 There are similar stories all over.

00:09:02.020 Undercover cops in Laredo, Texas,

00:09:03.960 just launched an incredible sting operation.

00:09:08.320 They did it.

00:09:09.260 You know, they're down in Laredo.

00:09:10.600 There are a lot of problems down there, okay?

00:09:12.760 And they've taken out the two biggest criminals,

00:09:16.420 two women who had a little private beauty salon in their house. 1.00

00:09:20.020 They did it.

00:09:21.960 They shut down people who were helping other women look nice. 0.94

00:09:28.200 That's it.

00:09:28.900 Forget the drugs, forget the crime.

00:09:30.080 They're letting criminals out of prison left and right,

00:09:31.840 but they shut down two small business owners.

00:09:34.840 We'll get to that in one moment.

00:09:35.940 First, I gotta thank our friends over at LegalZoom.

00:09:37.840 Speaking of legal troubles, I love LegalZoom.

00:09:41.440 I've used these guys since before the Daily Wire existed.

00:09:43.560 I trust them for everything on the multiple small businesses

00:09:46.960 that I've been involved in in my life

00:09:48.520 and that I am still involved in.

00:09:51.020 One thing that you really shouldn't put off

00:09:53.640 that everybody should do is estate planning, okay?

00:09:57.160 I've had a will since I was 18 years old, maybe even 17.

00:10:01.140 Health and safety is on top of everybody's mind,

00:10:03.960 especially at this moment.

00:10:04.920 No matter what happens,

00:10:05.700 you wanna make sure your loved ones are protected.

00:10:07.680 That's why LegalZoom continues to provide a reliable way

00:10:10.000 for everyone to set up the right estate plan

00:10:12.920 without leaving your home.

00:10:14.020 It starts with finding the answers to your questions.

00:10:16.400 Do you need a last will and testament or a living trust?

00:10:19.340 Or what about an advanced healthcare directive?

00:10:21.720 What about power of attorney, right?

00:10:22.860 There are a lot of questions.

00:10:23.680 LegalZoom's online resources make it easy to get started.

00:10:25.840 I trust these guys.

00:10:27.240 I've trusted them for years.

00:10:29.260 Go check them out.

00:10:30.200 Use them.

00:10:30.620 They're great.

00:10:31.000 Take an important step for your family today.

00:10:32.900 Go to LegalZoom.com to get started on a last will,

00:10:37.020 living trust, and more.

00:10:42.560 That's LegalZoom.com, code Knolls.

00:10:44.660 LegalZoom, where life meets legal.

00:10:48.520 Yes, the authorities in Laredo, Texas, have done it.

00:10:54.360 They arrested two women in an undercover sting operation.

00:10:59.880 Operation Rouge, I don't know.

00:11:02.660 Operation Put Some Powder On and Comb Your Hair

00:11:06.960 for violating the city's shutdown.

00:11:08.860 Ana Isabel Gastro-Garcia and Brenda Stephanie Mata

00:11:12.140 have been operating a cosmetology business from their home

00:11:16.740 because they're not allowed to go to work anymore.

00:11:18.940 People need to make money.

00:11:20.540 We got, what is it, 23, 24 million unemployed right now at least.

00:11:24.620 We've got nearly 20% unemployment,

00:11:26.840 so people got to make some money.

00:11:28.000 The $1,200 check you got from the federal government

00:11:29.920 not going to last you for three months.

00:11:31.660 And so they were taking some clients out of their homes

00:11:34.680 and the Laredo lockdown says that you can't operate

00:11:39.220 non-essential businesses defined somewhat arbitrarily.

00:11:43.780 And so the women get arrested. 1.00

00:11:45.320 How did they even know this business was going on?

00:11:48.020 The women were reported anonymously

00:11:51.380 through the department's Snitch app.

00:11:55.580 We've seen these apps in New York.

00:11:57.100 We've seen them all around the country.

00:11:58.720 It's a new app to turn citizens

00:12:01.460 into government spies on each other.

00:12:05.000 It's the most disgusting part of the whole story.

00:12:07.120 And you're seeing this spread all throughout the U.S.

00:12:09.400 And guess what?

00:12:10.020 Once this pandemic's over, guess what's not going away?

00:12:12.820 Those apps, those Snitch apps,

00:12:14.320 that culture that turns fellow citizens

00:12:16.400 into snitches on one another.

00:12:19.200 In both cases, an undercover officer

00:12:21.420 working with the COVID-19 task force

00:12:23.580 made contact with these women,

00:12:27.040 asked for the service.

00:12:29.100 So this is a total setup, right?

00:12:30.520 It's not like the women were out there 1.00

00:12:31.820 passing out flyers saying,

00:12:33.200 hey, come to my basement

00:12:34.040 so I can put some blush on you. 0.98

00:12:36.760 These cops went up there, set up these women, 1.00

00:12:38.920 then charged the women with a class B misdemeanor, 0.82

00:12:41.420 which carries a maximum potential penalty

00:12:44.100 of 180 days in jail

00:12:45.960 and a $1,000 fine for the crime

00:12:48.420 of operating a cosmetology business

00:12:51.740 and taking some clients

00:12:53.420 when they weren't allowed to work.

00:12:55.560 Two women have already had to fork up $500 bonds 1.00

00:12:58.180 for recognizance bonds to be released from jail.

00:13:02.500 Totally disgusting stuff.

00:13:06.020 And look, maybe these women will get out. 1.00

00:13:07.860 Maybe some judge will rule 0.99

00:13:09.620 that this was an outrageous government overstep.

00:13:12.160 I hope that's what happens.

00:13:14.540 But the snitch culture is going to remain.

00:13:17.920 What's so crazy is that Texas is currently reopening.

00:13:20.840 They say that they're going to let their lockdown order

00:13:22.580 expire on Thursday

00:13:23.740 with some restrictions still in place.

00:13:27.760 But Thursday they're going to open up.

00:13:29.260 Doesn't matter.

00:13:29.960 The government is still at the same exact time

00:13:32.120 going to flex their power arbitrarily.

00:13:35.860 Neighbors are narking on neighbors.

00:13:39.220 Cops are harassing 93-year-olds at the beach.

00:13:43.820 And teachers are wishing death on their students.

00:13:47.740 Yes, apparently I thought that

00:13:50.060 cops booting 93-year-olds out of their chairs

00:13:52.660 was going to be the craziest thing I saw.

00:13:54.120 I thought cops wasting resources

00:13:56.860 on shutting down cosmetology business.

00:13:59.300 I thought that'd be the craziest thing.

00:14:00.340 No.

00:14:01.560 There's a teacher caught on tape

00:14:02.860 in New Jersey

00:14:04.220 shrieking at her students 0.87

00:14:07.180 saying that she wishes death upon them

00:14:11.380 because they were throwing a football

00:14:13.620 in a public park.

00:14:14.660 I don't know that you can hear me over your music.

00:14:18.460 Park, close.

00:14:20.000 You will get arrested if the cops come.

00:14:22.660 Wait, can we go over there?

00:14:24.520 Is that crazy enough for you?

00:14:25.780 Can we go over there?

00:14:26.940 Park, close.

00:14:28.560 The whole area.

00:14:31.780 Get it through your thick head.

00:14:34.180 You are the reason we are in this situation.

00:14:37.060 You are the problem,

00:14:38.440 not the solution.

00:14:40.600 Go ahead, keep recording.

00:14:42.180 Who are you going to show it to?

00:14:43.800 Post me on social media.

00:14:45.400 You're the idiot doing the wrong thing.

00:14:47.700 I'm just trying to save your a** 0.99

00:14:49.720 and save your life.

00:14:51.100 But die, okay?

00:14:52.340 I hope both of you get the coronavirus.

00:14:54.160 I hope you both die a long, painful death.

00:14:56.980 I hope you both die a long, painful death,

00:15:02.340 says the teacher to her students.

00:15:05.700 The most worrying effect of all of this,

00:15:12.500 you see it a little bit in the snitch culture

00:15:14.640 and the apps and everyone's on edge.

00:15:16.700 It's this frenzy.

00:15:18.320 It's this hysteria.

00:15:20.120 That is going to be a longer term problem.

00:15:22.500 Look how easily the American people

00:15:24.660 have been whipped into a frenzy

00:15:26.600 based on basically nothing.

00:15:28.580 I mean, what she says to these kids here is,

00:15:31.340 you're the reason that we're in this mess.

00:15:33.540 You, kids throwing a football around in a park

00:15:37.740 are the reason that we have a global pandemic.

00:15:40.200 Now, this just obviously on its face is not true.

00:15:42.600 China is the reason we have a global pandemic. 1.00

00:15:44.820 China and the Wuhan Institute of Virology, very likely,

00:15:49.260 and certainly the Chinese Communist Party,

00:15:52.360 which covered it up and allowed the pandemic

00:15:53.940 to spread 95% worse than anyone expected it would,

00:15:57.640 and the World Health Organization,

00:15:59.300 which covered up for China.

00:16:00.480 They're the reason, okay?

00:16:01.580 Not kids throwing a football in New Jersey.

00:16:03.540 But this woman, this crazy woman, 1.00

00:16:06.740 has been whipped up into a frenzy

00:16:08.480 by the mainstream media, for sure,

00:16:12.960 by the politicians, for sure,

00:16:15.580 by the public health experts who got everything wrong.

00:16:19.100 Zeke Emanuel, remember Zeke Emanuel,

00:16:21.580 one of the architects of Obamacare?

00:16:23.120 He's the brother of Rahm Emanuel,

00:16:25.400 big Democratic operative.

00:16:27.320 Zeke, one of the leading,

00:16:29.180 exalted, vaunted experts in the white lab coat.

00:16:32.180 He made a prediction a little while ago,

00:16:35.400 about a month ago,

00:16:36.560 that 100 million people would have coronavirus by now.

00:16:41.920 Trouble with making political predictions

00:16:43.460 is occasionally you get called out for them.

00:16:46.040 You don't get called out by the mainstream media.

00:16:48.720 They just let them go and move on.

00:16:50.160 But occasionally,

00:16:51.280 some frustrating conservatives

00:16:53.640 actually go back and rewind the tape

00:16:55.240 and see how they did.

00:16:55.840 And it turns out they got them totally wrong.

00:16:58.560 And this kind of alarmism

00:17:00.180 is part of the reason

00:17:00.860 we're living in this culture right now.

00:17:02.300 We will get to that in a moment.

00:17:04.560 First, I gotta thank our friends over at Beard Supply.

00:17:08.620 You know, quarantine is giving people

00:17:11.720 the opportunity to try one interesting thing.

00:17:14.100 It's giving them the opportunity

00:17:15.300 to try out some new beard looks, right?

00:17:18.460 Some people try out a new beard look,

00:17:20.660 think, oh, maybe I'll let my facial hair grow in.

00:17:23.040 I'll join the ranks of the bearded brethren.

00:17:25.360 Well, maybe you missed the memo

00:17:27.760 because a beard is not just funny games.

00:17:29.960 Uh-uh.

00:17:30.440 It's not some fifth grade science experiment

00:17:32.280 with Mentos and soda.

00:17:33.880 Beards are a sacred art.

00:17:36.640 And Beard Supply is leading you to the promised land.

00:17:39.960 By now, you've discovered

00:17:41.560 that a full, healthy beard

00:17:42.900 isn't just something you can order on Amazon Prime.

00:17:46.140 No way, buster. 1.00

00:17:48.280 Beard Supply's 100% natural oils

00:17:50.040 change all of that,

00:17:51.000 hydrating your skin and hair

00:17:52.300 and leading to a fuller, healthier,

00:17:53.980 better-looking beard.

00:17:54.840 I gotta tell you,

00:17:55.980 by the end of this ad,

00:17:57.000 I think I'm gonna grow out a beard.

00:17:58.300 I so want to join the bearded brethren,

00:18:01.500 but sometimes a little difficult

00:18:02.740 Beard Supply can help.

00:18:17.860 Zeke Emanuel,

00:18:21.780 one of the people

00:18:22.580 who whipped everyone up

00:18:23.480 into a frenzy.

00:18:25.560 And the frenzy, 0.98

00:18:26.100 frenzy is a real problem here.

00:18:27.540 Frenzy is compromising your liberty

00:18:29.060 a lot more even than Gavin Newsom.

00:18:31.580 So Zeke Emanuel comes out

00:18:32.780 on MSNBC a month ago,

00:18:33.880 and he says that we're gonna have

00:18:35.240 100 million cases

00:18:37.780 within a month.

00:18:39.400 Right now,

00:18:40.100 if you look at the numbers,

00:18:41.040 we probably have a million

00:18:42.220 COVID-19 cases

00:18:43.820 in the country.

00:18:44.820 And if this is doubling

00:18:46.600 every three to four days,

00:18:48.860 that means that we'll have

00:18:50.140 100 million people

00:18:51.340 who have COVID-19

00:18:52.400 in about four weeks.

00:18:54.280 That's a frightening thought.

00:18:56.100 That is a frightening thought.

00:18:57.960 Also, according to the official numbers,

00:19:00.460 off by 99%.

00:19:02.440 His estimate

00:19:05.060 was 100 times higher

00:19:08.400 than it actually is,

00:19:10.700 according to the official numbers.

00:19:12.720 But what is Zeke Emanuel using

00:19:14.800 if not the official numbers, right?

00:19:16.300 He's a public health official.

00:19:17.620 So according to the actual numbers,

00:19:19.320 not the Zeke Emanuel fantasies,

00:19:21.360 we have over a million

00:19:23.280 confirmed cases

00:19:24.620 in the United States.

00:19:25.540 Just a little bit over a million.

00:19:27.340 Obviously, that's a lot of people.

00:19:29.060 It's not over 100 million, though.

00:19:31.620 Million confirmed cases,

00:19:33.480 57,000 deaths.

00:19:36.160 It's kind of difficult

00:19:37.300 to track deaths

00:19:38.080 with coronavirus.

00:19:38.820 We've talked about this

00:19:39.420 on previous shows,

00:19:40.360 because if you die

00:19:41.280 with coronavirus,

00:19:42.180 you die of coronavirus,

00:19:43.440 according to the records.

00:19:44.600 And this is disproportionately

00:19:46.780 affecting people

00:19:47.560 with serious health problems

00:19:49.140 and who are older.

00:19:50.780 So for instance,

00:19:52.240 a former teacher of mine

00:19:53.740 very sadly died of coronavirus.

00:19:56.060 And he was 97 years old.

00:19:57.880 He was about to turn 98.

00:19:59.120 I think the guy

00:19:59.900 was strong as an ox

00:20:00.880 and he would have lived

00:20:01.400 until 105 probably,

00:20:02.780 if not for this thing.

00:20:03.740 But it's very difficult

00:20:04.880 to track these numbers,

00:20:06.840 because you're talking

00:20:08.840 in many cases

00:20:09.660 about people who are very old.

00:20:12.000 You're talking about people

00:20:12.900 who have a lot

00:20:13.980 of health problems.

00:20:14.540 So for instance,

00:20:15.140 let's say somebody's,

00:20:16.400 I don't know,

00:20:16.940 90 years old,

00:20:18.040 has stage 4 pancreatic cancer,

00:20:20.260 doesn't have very long

00:20:21.500 to live probably,

00:20:22.620 and then gets coronavirus.

00:20:24.720 That death will be marked

00:20:25.740 as coronavirus.

00:20:27.020 Really, you'd probably

00:20:27.780 attribute it to pancreatic cancer

00:20:29.140 or to advanced age.

00:20:30.940 So anyway,

00:20:31.620 very difficult to track.

00:20:32.520 But again,

00:20:32.840 we're using the official numbers,

00:20:33.760 so we've got 57,000 deaths.

00:20:35.560 If Zeke Emanuel is right,

00:20:39.360 and there are actually

00:20:40.340 100 million people

00:20:41.920 who have this,

00:20:43.520 who have not been tested,

00:20:45.560 who have not been confirmed for it,

00:20:46.920 then that is very encouraging

00:20:49.060 that the death rate

00:20:50.660 is so much lower

00:20:51.360 than we predicted, right?

00:20:52.400 If 100 million people

00:20:53.300 actually have it

00:20:53.920 and the death rate,

00:20:54.980 the total number of deaths

00:20:56.080 is only 57,000,

00:20:58.000 obviously it's still

00:20:58.720 a huge number,

00:20:59.940 but relative to 100 million,

00:21:01.000 that's an encouraging number

00:21:03.360 in any case.

00:21:04.100 If the number

00:21:06.320 is really that high,

00:21:07.380 by the way,

00:21:07.700 if it's 100 million people,

00:21:08.780 then we are well on our way

00:21:09.880 to herd immunity.

00:21:11.060 So it makes us question

00:21:13.340 why we still have

00:21:14.080 some of these lockdowns.

00:21:16.240 If the numbers

00:21:17.680 that Zeke Emanuel was giving

00:21:18.860 are right,

00:21:20.660 or if they are wrong,

00:21:22.680 either way,

00:21:23.820 I don't see the argument

00:21:25.360 for continuing the lockdowns.

00:21:27.580 The whole point of the lockdowns

00:21:29.080 was don't overrun

00:21:31.400 the healthcare system

00:21:32.300 and develop a vaccine.

00:21:34.100 Right?

00:21:36.020 Because you don't want

00:21:37.080 to overrun the healthcare system

00:21:38.080 because then more people die

00:21:39.240 than otherwise would.

00:21:41.160 And you want to

00:21:42.020 have the lockdowns

00:21:43.640 until you can get a vaccine

00:21:44.700 because then you've slowed

00:21:46.280 the rate so much,

00:21:47.220 then you have a vaccine

00:21:47.860 and it knocks it out.

00:21:48.580 We now know

00:21:49.200 we're not going to get a vaccine

00:21:50.300 within a year,

00:21:51.700 a year and a half,

00:21:53.060 at which point the virus

00:21:54.220 will have already spread everywhere.

00:21:55.480 And we know that we're not

00:21:56.380 overwhelming the healthcare system

00:21:57.500 because the Javits Center

00:21:58.380 Emergency Hospital

00:21:59.180 in New York was empty

00:22:00.180 and the USNS Comfort,

00:22:02.820 the hospital ship,

00:22:04.200 was empty.

00:22:05.400 It was gone.

00:22:05.920 So we don't need

00:22:06.740 to worry about that.

00:22:08.080 Yet,

00:22:09.220 despite all of that evidence,

00:22:11.140 the politicians

00:22:11.800 double down.

00:22:12.960 You want to know

00:22:13.300 how wrapped up we are

00:22:14.140 in the drama

00:22:14.620 of the coronavirus,

00:22:16.020 in the drama

00:22:16.660 of the lockdown,

00:22:18.100 in the drama

00:22:18.620 of Orange Man Bad?

00:22:20.960 Yesterday,

00:22:21.520 the US government

00:22:22.320 admitted

00:22:22.860 that there are UFOs

00:22:25.080 and nobody cares.

00:22:28.420 The US government

00:22:29.580 came out yesterday

00:22:30.520 and after

00:22:31.700 16 years

00:22:34.300 of questions

00:22:34.920 about one particular

00:22:36.060 aerial phenomenon,

00:22:37.900 but obviously decades

00:22:38.960 of other questions

00:22:39.720 about UFOs,

00:22:40.660 the US government

00:22:41.360 actually came out

00:22:42.060 and said,

00:22:42.380 yeah,

00:22:42.560 there are UFOs.

00:22:43.860 And everyone said,

00:22:44.840 yeah,

00:22:45.020 okay,

00:22:45.300 who cares?

00:22:45.860 Orange Man Bad?

00:22:46.860 What did Trump say

00:22:47.580 at the press conference?

00:22:48.460 Well,

00:22:48.740 we will get to what Trump

00:22:49.620 said at the press conference,

00:22:50.540 but first we got to talk

00:22:51.380 about the aliens.

00:22:52.860 Or I should be more specific.

00:22:54.940 The UFOs.

00:22:55.740 Here is some video.

00:22:56.660 I'll narrate it

00:22:57.320 because you can't

00:22:58.000 really hear that well.

00:22:59.940 Here's just some clips

00:23:01.060 of what people

00:23:01.840 are looking at

00:23:02.760 when they talk

00:23:03.760 about these UFOs.

00:23:04.520 So it's this object

00:23:06.160 that people are calling

00:23:08.260 a tic-tac

00:23:08.820 because it looks

00:23:10.180 kind of like a tic-tac.

00:23:11.040 It doesn't have wings.

00:23:12.960 It doesn't seem

00:23:13.560 to be being propelled

00:23:14.920 by anything in particular.

00:23:17.700 And some Navy pilots

00:23:19.280 have been able

00:23:19.740 to get it on camera.

00:23:21.680 So they're tracking it.

00:23:24.440 You know,

00:23:24.860 it's moving

00:23:25.300 in this kind of weird way.

00:23:28.720 It doesn't look

00:23:29.240 like a normal airplane

00:23:30.120 or even a drone.

00:23:31.760 It's kind of turning

00:23:32.440 in the air

00:23:33.220 and no one,

00:23:34.100 and it just like

00:23:34.600 comes to a stop

00:23:35.440 and they don't,

00:23:36.020 they just have no idea

00:23:36.920 what this thing is.

00:23:39.020 There's another one.

00:23:39.980 They caught it.

00:23:40.540 It was very,

00:23:41.880 very high up in the sky

00:23:42.860 and then it just plummeted

00:23:44.080 and got very close

00:23:45.260 to sea level

00:23:46.240 and then just kept flying

00:23:47.520 along the sea level.

00:23:48.360 And according to some

00:23:48.900 of these Navy pilots,

00:23:49.700 there actually

00:23:50.520 were a whole bunch

00:23:52.140 of these things.

00:23:52.760 There were like a dozen

00:23:53.360 or even more

00:23:54.120 and then by the time

00:23:55.480 they actually went

00:23:56.000 to film them,

00:23:56.600 they only caught this one.

00:23:57.980 But it is really weird.

00:23:59.040 It's moving in a weird way.

00:24:00.760 And some of these videos

00:24:02.620 came out,

00:24:04.080 they leaked,

00:24:04.580 you know,

00:24:04.780 a year or two ago,

00:24:06.040 maybe a year or two

00:24:06.580 before that.

00:24:07.660 But some of them

00:24:08.620 actually leaked

00:24:09.880 as early as,

00:24:11.360 I believe,

00:24:11.680 2004

00:24:12.580 and were published.

00:24:14.200 So we've already seen

00:24:15.180 a lot of these videos.

00:24:16.100 But anyway,

00:24:16.440 the government is acknowledging

00:24:17.360 that they exist now.

00:24:19.240 It seems to me

00:24:20.300 that there are

00:24:22.760 three possibilities here.

00:24:26.020 This could either be

00:24:27.240 U.S. government technology,

00:24:30.400 foreign government technology,

00:24:31.720 or to quote that guy

00:24:33.260 in the History Channel,

00:24:35.080 aliens.

00:24:36.640 Right?

00:24:37.300 You can't discount

00:24:38.440 the third possibility.

00:24:39.540 I mean,

00:24:39.680 I don't think it's exactly

00:24:40.700 the likely one,

00:24:41.500 but those are,

00:24:42.580 those are the three options.

00:24:43.900 U.S. government,

00:24:44.400 foreign government,

00:24:45.140 or aliens.

00:24:45.920 I suspect,

00:24:46.960 as I've suspected

00:24:47.620 the whole time,

00:24:48.600 that this is U.S. government

00:24:49.600 technology.

00:24:50.820 The government has been

00:24:51.620 stonewalling on this

00:24:52.580 for a long time,

00:24:53.500 now upwards of 16 years.

00:24:56.020 And they've determined

00:24:58.060 that there's nothing

00:24:58.720 particularly classified

00:24:59.740 in these videos.

00:25:01.680 And so,

00:25:02.920 you know,

00:25:03.500 if there's no risk

00:25:04.500 that the Chinese

00:25:05.180 or someone else

00:25:05.820 is going to get this first,

00:25:07.220 then they can release

00:25:08.160 some of these videos.

00:25:09.760 That would be

00:25:10.260 one reason to do it.

00:25:11.240 Another reason to do it

00:25:11.980 would be to make it clear

00:25:14.700 that Navy pilots

00:25:15.620 and other people

00:25:16.340 should feel comfortable

00:25:17.960 reporting this stuff

00:25:18.880 and you're not going to seem

00:25:19.640 like a total kook.

00:25:21.140 Right?

00:25:21.400 I think maybe part of the reason

00:25:22.480 why some people

00:25:23.180 haven't wanted to report

00:25:24.000 that they've seen

00:25:24.520 these aerial phenomena

00:25:25.380 is they don't want to seem

00:25:26.900 like they're tinfoil

00:25:27.980 hack conspiracy theorists.

00:25:29.460 But if the government

00:25:30.680 does know that

00:25:31.340 these kind of things exist,

00:25:32.760 then they,

00:25:33.500 they want to feel

00:25:34.180 a little more,

00:25:35.260 they want the people

00:25:36.280 who are seeing them

00:25:36.840 to feel more comfortable

00:25:37.500 reporting them.

00:25:38.700 That would also be true

00:25:39.660 if this is from

00:25:40.240 a foreign government.

00:25:41.000 We don't know exactly

00:25:41.800 what the technology is

00:25:43.780 or which government

00:25:44.400 is putting it out there

00:25:45.540 or, more importantly,

00:25:47.200 who is intruding

00:25:48.300 on U.S. airspace.

00:25:49.760 Because don't forget,

00:25:50.760 we're doing all sorts

00:25:51.620 of exercises

00:25:52.380 in the skies

00:25:53.200 in our airspace.

00:25:55.120 If some unidentified

00:25:56.720 flying object

00:25:57.660 comes in

00:25:58.360 and knocks out

00:25:59.800 some of our equipment

00:26:00.500 or, God forbid,

00:26:02.100 one of our pilots

00:26:02.700 or something,

00:26:03.480 that's a huge deal.

00:26:04.560 So they might want

00:26:06.420 to sound the alarm

00:26:07.220 on that a little bit

00:26:08.000 as well.

00:26:08.520 And then the third option

00:26:09.340 is that they're aliens

00:26:10.200 and I don't think

00:26:11.260 that's necessarily

00:26:11.900 the most likely option.

00:26:13.280 There are some

00:26:14.240 interesting analyses

00:26:15.340 of these things,

00:26:16.140 though,

00:26:16.640 that are floating

00:26:17.280 around the internet.

00:26:17.940 One piece,

00:26:18.420 I retweeted it earlier,

00:26:19.840 it's written by a guy

00:26:20.440 who said,

00:26:20.860 okay, bear with me,

00:26:21.680 here's the craziest

00:26:22.280 version yet,

00:26:23.200 that this is like

00:26:24.720 an alien or something,

00:26:25.800 something we just

00:26:26.280 genuinely don't know

00:26:27.040 what it is.

00:26:28.920 The way in which

00:26:30.020 this technology

00:26:30.700 is moving

00:26:31.280 is about 20,

00:26:33.600 22 times

00:26:34.340 faster

00:26:35.320 than,

00:26:37.200 for instance,

00:26:37.680 an F-18 technology

00:26:38.820 that we're very familiar

00:26:39.720 with.

00:26:40.420 And the analogy

00:26:41.280 that this author draws

00:26:42.480 is that looking

00:26:44.380 at this Tic Tac object

00:26:45.720 compared to an F-18

00:26:46.860 would be like someone

00:26:48.320 on a horse and buggy

00:26:49.260 500 years ago

00:26:50.260 looking up at the sky

00:26:51.480 and seeing an F-18.

00:26:52.960 It would be about

00:26:53.400 20,

00:26:54.000 22 times faster

00:26:55.040 than the horse and buggy

00:26:56.220 just as the Tic Tac

00:26:57.420 is 20,

00:26:57.920 22 times faster

00:26:59.520 than the airplane.

00:27:01.440 We don't know

00:27:02.260 what it is.

00:27:02.620 It's kind of interesting

00:27:03.380 and it says a lot

00:27:04.060 about our political

00:27:04.700 culture right now

00:27:05.560 that we don't care.

00:27:06.740 We're not interested

00:27:07.360 in these kind of

00:27:08.880 crazy wonders

00:27:09.860 of the world

00:27:10.500 because we're all busy

00:27:11.580 arguing about

00:27:12.920 the orange man's

00:27:14.460 press conferences

00:27:15.140 and how bad he is.

00:27:16.840 Right?

00:27:17.540 I think it was

00:27:18.140 at Chesterton

00:27:18.600 who said

00:27:19.020 the world

00:27:20.700 is not perishing

00:27:21.560 for want of wonders.

00:27:23.520 It's for want of wonder.

00:27:25.780 There are a lot of wonders

00:27:26.920 in the world

00:27:27.360 that we can look at

00:27:28.160 but we humans

00:27:29.780 don't have the capacity

00:27:30.660 to wonder at them.

00:27:32.000 And this actually

00:27:32.540 gets to our problem

00:27:33.700 on liberty here

00:27:35.300 which is a lot

00:27:36.080 a lot deeper

00:27:37.900 than just some governor

00:27:39.660 taking away some right

00:27:40.800 for some period of time.

00:27:42.160 We'll get to that

00:27:42.780 in a second.

00:27:43.220 We will get to

00:27:43.900 the danger of frenzy

00:27:45.620 the Trump press conference

00:27:46.580 and the final knock

00:27:50.100 on our liberty

00:27:50.840 which is coming

00:27:51.720 care of Nancy Pelosi.

00:27:53.100 First though

00:27:53.520 I've got to thank you.

00:27:55.440 I've got to thank you

00:27:56.000 for joining the Daily Wire

00:27:57.340 and if you haven't done that yet

00:27:58.340 come on over.

00:27:59.920 You know what you get.

00:28:00.580 You get all the shows.

00:28:01.440 You get to become

00:28:02.220 an All Access member.

00:28:03.020 You get the All Access show

00:28:03.800 which has been a lot of fun.

00:28:05.300 We have a lot of

00:28:06.380 different tiers now

00:28:07.240 and speaking of tiers

00:28:09.400 T-I-E-R-S 1.00

00:28:11.040 you should also think

00:28:12.100 of tiers T-E-A-R-S 1.00

00:28:13.940 because you're going

00:28:14.920 to want to contain

00:28:16.760 all of the leftist tiers

00:28:18.000 in a Tumblr

00:28:18.680 before you drown.

00:28:20.020 And these days

00:28:20.520 look there are a lot

00:28:21.040 more leftist tiers

00:28:21.740 going around

00:28:22.360 because the Democratic

00:28:24.060 presidential nominee

00:28:25.060 looks like he got

00:28:26.760 a little handsy

00:28:27.540 and even if he were

00:28:28.760 aware of what his name is

00:28:29.980 or where he is

00:28:31.880 he's probably still

00:28:33.460 not a viable candidate.

00:28:34.240 So the tiers are filling up

00:28:35.580 you're not going to be able

00:28:36.180 to contain them

00:28:36.640 in one vessel

00:28:37.360 you're going to need two.

00:28:38.700 Luckily we're there for you.

00:28:39.840 We're always there for you.

00:28:40.740 Right now if you become

00:28:41.440 an Insider Plus

00:28:42.020 or All Access member

00:28:42.820 you can double your tiers

00:28:43.960 with two leftist tiers tumblers.

00:28:56.080 Head on over to Daily Wire

00:28:56.900 we'll be right back.

00:28:57.780 We're in this kind

00:29:11.180 of frenzy right now

00:29:12.380 where the news

00:29:13.500 is telling us

00:29:14.340 zillions of people

00:29:15.360 are going to die

00:29:16.140 and we're just

00:29:17.420 we're so focused

00:29:18.980 on the present

00:29:19.680 that we can't zoom out

00:29:20.740 and get some

00:29:21.520 perspective.

00:29:23.760 Okay.

00:29:24.340 We're like so focused

00:29:25.320 on the political present

00:29:26.200 we're even ignoring the UFOs.

00:29:28.240 It's just unreal.

00:29:29.580 If you imagined

00:29:30.300 what it would be like

00:29:30.940 the day the government said

00:29:31.780 hey there's such a thing

00:29:32.540 as UFOs.

00:29:33.840 You would have thought

00:29:34.240 it'd be world news

00:29:35.420 everything would shut down

00:29:36.360 we'd be shocked

00:29:37.020 the president would come

00:29:37.860 out and make a statement.

00:29:38.820 Instead

00:29:39.140 they're ignoring it.

00:29:40.880 That's like page seven

00:29:41.820 of the newspaper.

00:29:44.040 One thing I've been

00:29:45.000 trying to encourage

00:29:45.760 since the beginning

00:29:46.320 of this whole pandemic

00:29:47.060 is some historical perspective.

00:29:51.080 Right?

00:29:51.980 Saying okay guys

00:29:53.040 let's see

00:29:53.480 we're shutting down

00:29:54.000 the global economy

00:29:54.720 for this pandemic.

00:29:55.380 We've had pandemics

00:29:56.480 before

00:29:56.980 like the Spanish flu

00:29:58.200 which was very bad

00:29:59.160 but we didn't do this

00:29:59.880 we didn't do that.

00:30:00.900 We've had other

00:30:01.480 virus scares

00:30:02.460 Zika 0.84

00:30:03.440 Ebola

00:30:04.120 HIV

00:30:05.480 we should you know

00:30:06.720 kind of maybe

00:30:07.540 temper our

00:30:08.140 and no

00:30:09.020 the left doesn't want you

00:30:10.720 to temper any

00:30:12.460 of your hysteria

00:30:13.460 with perspective.

00:30:14.560 The one thing

00:30:15.140 the media are trying

00:30:15.740 to discourage

00:30:16.360 number one

00:30:16.900 is historical

00:30:18.460 perspective.

00:30:20.720 Okay.

00:30:20.860 They won't let you

00:30:21.440 talk about historical precedent

00:30:22.520 they won't let you

00:30:23.040 talk about other illnesses.

00:30:23.820 If you say

00:30:24.880 hmm let's compare

00:30:25.620 this virus to the flu

00:30:26.560 they'll scream

00:30:28.120 and yell at you

00:30:28.720 and say you're not

00:30:29.160 allowed to do that.

00:30:29.880 Why?

00:30:30.200 I couldn't tell you why.

00:30:32.580 This is the real

00:30:33.740 threat to liberty.

00:30:36.280 This is why

00:30:37.360 tyrannical regimes

00:30:38.960 like in

00:30:40.340 fiction

00:30:41.340 or in reality

00:30:42.460 always want to

00:30:43.960 erase the past

00:30:44.980 because the past

00:30:46.640 is a great

00:30:47.620 bulwark

00:30:48.180 against

00:30:48.740 the political

00:30:50.120 overreaches

00:30:50.840 of the present.

00:30:51.620 And so in 1984

00:30:53.080 George Orwell

00:30:53.860 says there was

00:30:54.960 no such thing

00:30:55.640 as history.

00:30:56.180 History was erased.

00:30:57.100 There's only

00:30:57.400 the eternal present

00:30:58.640 in which the party

00:30:59.620 was always right.

00:31:01.060 The party is always

00:31:01.740 changing its narrative.

00:31:03.300 The left has changed

00:31:04.060 its narrative.

00:31:04.600 The media changed

00:31:05.180 its narrative

00:31:05.680 on the coronavirus

00:31:06.580 as they've been

00:31:07.480 more and more wrong

00:31:08.340 but they just deny

00:31:09.740 all the predictions

00:31:10.620 they made

00:31:11.060 the week prior

00:31:11.740 or two weeks prior.

00:31:13.740 This is the threat

00:31:14.600 to liberty

00:31:14.960 our lack of perspective

00:31:15.960 and our lack

00:31:16.700 of self-control.

00:31:17.760 Trump is not letting

00:31:18.420 the press derail him

00:31:19.400 though.

00:31:19.640 He never does.

00:31:20.440 Can't stump the Trump.

00:31:21.140 So the press now

00:31:23.040 have devolved

00:31:23.860 to asking questions

00:31:24.920 that are more or less

00:31:26.900 President Trump

00:31:28.000 when did you stop

00:31:28.580 beating your wife? 0.96

00:31:29.400 They're now

00:31:29.860 accusing President Trump

00:31:31.600 not only of being

00:31:32.200 responsible for the

00:31:33.040 coronavirus

00:31:33.540 because I guess

00:31:34.960 President Trump

00:31:35.520 was leading the

00:31:36.460 research in the

00:31:37.080 Wuhan laboratory

00:31:37.720 or something

00:31:38.260 or he was cooking

00:31:39.580 up bad batches

00:31:40.340 of bat soup. 0.74

00:31:41.800 They're not only

00:31:42.620 blaming him for that

00:31:43.460 they're comparing it

00:31:44.780 to the Vietnam War.

00:31:46.720 If an American 0.98

00:31:47.400 president loses

00:31:48.260 more Americans

00:31:49.280 over the course

00:31:50.240 of six weeks

00:31:50.940 and died

00:31:51.420 in the entirety

00:31:52.120 of the Vietnam War

00:31:53.380 does he deserve

00:31:54.080 to be reelected?

00:31:56.220 So yeah

00:31:57.480 we've lost

00:31:58.140 a lot of people

00:31:58.920 but if you look

00:32:00.100 at what original

00:32:01.660 projections were

00:32:02.620 2.2 million

00:32:03.740 we're probably

00:32:05.260 heading to

00:32:05.940 60,000

00:32:07.060 70,000

00:32:07.980 it's far too many

00:32:08.800 one person

00:32:09.400 is too many

00:32:09.980 for this

00:32:10.420 and I think

00:32:11.880 we've made

00:32:12.180 a lot of

00:32:12.520 really good decisions

00:32:13.400 the big decision

00:32:14.280 was closing

00:32:14.940 the border

00:32:16.000 or doing the ban

00:32:16.880 people coming

00:32:17.740 in from China

00:32:18.460 obviously

00:32:18.980 other than

00:32:19.500 American citizens

00:32:20.360 which had to

00:32:21.120 come in

00:32:21.520 can't say

00:32:22.600 you can't

00:32:23.060 come in

00:32:23.340 you can't

00:32:23.800 come back

00:32:24.100 to your country

00:32:24.640 I think

00:32:25.620 we've made

00:32:25.940 a lot of

00:32:26.300 good decisions

00:32:26.900 I think

00:32:27.320 that Mike Pence

00:32:28.140 and the task force

00:32:29.260 have done

00:32:30.020 a fantastic job

00:32:31.160 I think

00:32:32.020 that everybody

00:32:32.520 working on

00:32:33.160 the ventilators

00:32:33.920 you see

00:32:34.660 what we've

00:32:35.000 done there

00:32:35.400 have done

00:32:35.900 unbelievable

00:32:36.880 the press

00:32:37.360 doesn't talk

00:32:37.860 about ventilators

00:32:38.700 anymore

00:32:39.100 they just

00:32:39.800 don't want

00:32:40.100 to talk

00:32:40.400 about them

00:32:40.780 and that's

00:32:41.100 okay

00:32:41.420 but the reason

00:32:42.220 they don't

00:32:42.560 want to talk

00:32:42.920 that was a subject

00:32:43.680 that nobody

00:32:44.180 would get off

00:32:44.780 they don't

00:32:45.580 want to talk

00:32:46.060 about them

00:32:46.500 we're in

00:32:47.680 the same

00:32:48.040 position

00:32:48.460 on testing

00:32:49.140 we are

00:32:49.780 lapping

00:32:50.760 the world

00:32:51.300 on testing

00:32:51.900 and the world

00:32:52.420 is coming

00:32:52.860 to us

00:32:53.240 as I said

00:32:53.800 they're coming

00:32:54.220 to us

00:32:54.500 saying

00:32:54.640 what are you

00:32:55.060 doing

00:32:55.320 how do you

00:32:55.740 do it

00:32:56.020 we're helping

00:32:56.500 them

00:32:56.820 so no

00:32:58.060 I think

00:32:58.340 we've done

00:32:58.660 a great job

00:32:59.380 a great answer

00:33:00.820 from Trump

00:33:01.280 I would have

00:33:01.820 probably been

00:33:02.460 testier with

00:33:03.100 this reporter

00:33:03.660 because it's

00:33:04.060 such an absurd

00:33:04.700 question

00:33:05.240 as though

00:33:06.640 President Trump

00:33:07.280 is responsible

00:33:07.920 for a global

00:33:08.640 pandemic

00:33:09.180 that started

00:33:11.060 in China

00:33:11.560 and has gone

00:33:11.980 to every country

00:33:12.500 in the world

00:33:12.800 is Trump

00:33:13.160 responsible

00:33:13.520 for the deaths

00:33:14.020 in Italy

00:33:14.380 or the deaths

00:33:14.940 in Iran

00:33:15.400 or the deaths

00:33:16.020 in the rest

00:33:16.720 of Europe

00:33:17.060 or the deaths

00:33:17.520 in the UK

00:33:17.980 or the dead

00:33:18.580 no of course

00:33:19.220 not

00:33:19.560 is it

00:33:21.720 what are you

00:33:22.780 talking about

00:33:23.460 and but Trump

00:33:24.120 what he keeps

00:33:25.100 going back to

00:33:25.600 is he says

00:33:26.000 you know

00:33:26.260 we've done

00:33:26.920 a great job

00:33:27.560 we did a great

00:33:28.100 job on this

00:33:28.560 we did a great

00:33:29.020 job on this

00:33:29.440 we did a great

00:33:29.900 job on ventilators

00:33:30.880 remember the

00:33:31.340 ventilators

00:33:31.820 until he said

00:33:32.640 that I forgot

00:33:33.460 about the

00:33:33.820 ventilators

00:33:34.400 the ventilators

00:33:35.300 were the biggest

00:33:35.720 story

00:33:36.000 it's all anybody

00:33:36.500 would talk

00:33:36.940 about

00:33:37.180 we need to

00:33:38.020 get more

00:33:38.280 ventilators

00:33:38.860 Andy Cuomo

00:33:39.320 said we don't

00:33:39.660 have enough

00:33:39.920 ventilators

00:33:40.540 by the way

00:33:41.060 turns out

00:33:41.400 the ventilators

00:33:41.920 don't even

00:33:42.220 really work

00:33:42.680 that well

00:33:43.060 according to

00:33:43.940 various studies

00:33:44.520 that have been

00:33:44.800 done

00:33:45.020 most people

00:33:46.220 who go on

00:33:46.780 the ventilators

00:33:47.440 end up dying

00:33:48.200 the ventilators

00:33:49.520 are kind of

00:33:49.740 a last ditch

00:33:50.240 effort

00:33:50.460 and they don't

00:33:50.780 really seem

00:33:51.140 to work

00:33:51.420 so even

00:33:51.860 even the idea

00:33:52.900 that the

00:33:53.200 ventilators

00:33:53.640 were the key

00:33:54.140 to stopping

00:33:54.900 the carnage

00:33:55.720 of the virus

00:33:56.200 does not appear

00:33:57.460 to be backed

00:33:57.840 up by evidence

00:33:58.560 but that was

00:33:59.720 the whole story

00:34:00.520 and then President

00:34:01.040 Trump ramped up

00:34:01.760 production of the

00:34:02.300 ventilators

00:34:02.820 worked very well

00:34:03.940 and all of a sudden

00:34:04.680 the press

00:34:05.000 forgets about it

00:34:05.640 it's had a memory

00:34:06.340 hole

00:34:06.620 all of these

00:34:07.960 stupid talking

00:34:09.280 points on the virus

00:34:10.120 and what Trump

00:34:10.640 is trying to do

00:34:11.240 is bring that

00:34:12.340 back up

00:34:12.880 it's part of the

00:34:14.180 reason that he

00:34:14.640 keeps going back

00:34:15.160 he says wait a second

00:34:15.720 you remember when

00:34:16.200 you guys tried

00:34:16.640 to impeach me

00:34:17.240 hey remember

00:34:18.160 when you tried

00:34:18.660 to say I was

00:34:19.160 a Russian stooge 1.00

00:34:20.160 you remember that

00:34:21.100 do you remember

00:34:21.860 that because you

00:34:22.280 wouldn't

00:34:22.820 if you're just

00:34:24.740 watching the

00:34:25.200 mainstream media

00:34:25.840 you become

00:34:26.280 hypnotized by

00:34:27.080 the mainstream

00:34:27.460 media

00:34:27.740 you become

00:34:28.140 whipped up

00:34:28.600 into a frenzy

00:34:29.280 you lose

00:34:30.040 all perspective

00:34:30.740 and when you're

00:34:31.920 whipped into a frenzy

00:34:32.820 that's the threat

00:34:33.760 to liberty

00:34:34.260 I can't stress

00:34:35.440 this enough

00:34:35.860 it's not

00:34:36.540 just the edicts

00:34:38.580 that come out

00:34:39.000 of the governor's

00:34:39.560 mansions

00:34:39.940 it's your own

00:34:40.740 behavior

00:34:41.180 and we are

00:34:41.740 increasingly being

00:34:42.600 accustomed to

00:34:43.440 behavior that is

00:34:44.320 not befitting

00:34:45.140 a free people

00:34:46.200 speaking of

00:34:47.140 unfree people

00:34:47.860 we do have to

00:34:48.880 check in on

00:34:49.420 North Korea

00:34:50.020 because we don't

00:34:51.040 know if they

00:34:51.360 have a dictator

00:34:51.840 still or not

00:34:52.620 President Trump

00:34:54.060 seems to know

00:34:54.980 something more

00:34:55.540 about that

00:34:55.960 than he's letting

00:34:56.540 on

00:34:56.940 but we have

00:34:57.900 Schrodinger's

00:34:58.600 dictator over there

00:34:59.540 you know

00:34:59.920 he might be

00:35:01.000 dead and alive

00:35:02.200 at the same time

00:35:03.060 he's in this

00:35:03.860 sort of

00:35:04.160 suspended state

00:35:05.200 President Trump

00:35:06.420 has asked on it

00:35:07.220 and he refuses

00:35:08.600 to answer

00:35:09.240 have you gotten

00:35:10.420 any update

00:35:11.120 on Kim Jong-un's

00:35:12.060 health as he

00:35:12.720 responded to your

00:35:13.460 letter from March

00:35:14.420 on Kim Jong-un

00:35:15.820 I can't tell you

00:35:18.420 exactly

00:35:20.060 yes I do have

00:35:20.960 a very good idea

00:35:22.320 but I can't talk

00:35:23.340 about it now

00:35:23.900 I just wish him

00:35:25.380 well

00:35:25.660 I've had a very

00:35:26.600 good relationship

00:35:27.480 with Kim Jong-un

00:35:28.440 if I weren't

00:35:28.960 president you'd be

00:35:29.740 in war

00:35:30.060 you would have

00:35:30.440 been in war

00:35:30.940 with Korea

00:35:31.520 you would have

00:35:33.040 been in war

00:35:33.520 with North Korea

00:35:34.200 if I wasn't

00:35:34.760 president

00:35:35.140 that I can tell

00:35:35.940 you

00:35:36.120 he expected

00:35:36.980 that

00:35:37.320 that I can

00:35:37.920 tell you

00:35:38.280 I

00:35:39.380 I hope

00:35:41.220 he's

00:35:41.600 fine

00:35:42.660 I do know

00:35:43.500 how he's

00:35:44.100 doing

00:35:44.480 relatively

00:35:45.500 speaking

00:35:46.060 we will

00:35:47.540 see

00:35:48.320 you'll probably

00:35:48.900 be hearing

00:35:49.380 in the not

00:35:49.820 too distant

00:35:50.260 future

00:35:50.720 I think

00:35:51.500 you have

00:35:52.380 a good

00:35:52.720 relationship

00:35:53.420 with

00:35:53.820 North Korean

00:35:56.280 leader

00:35:56.640 Kim Jong-un

00:35:57.620 but last

00:35:58.660 Saturday

00:35:59.360 Senator Graham

00:36:00.640 he mentioned

00:36:02.140 Fox News

00:36:04.360 he interviewed

00:36:05.200 he said

00:36:06.360 he didn't say

00:36:07.280 anything last

00:36:07.960 Saturday

00:36:08.400 nobody

00:36:10.020 nobody knows

00:36:11.080 where he is

00:36:11.580 so he obviously

00:36:12.260 couldn't have

00:36:12.740 said it

00:36:13.120 if you have

00:36:13.680 this is breaking

00:36:14.720 news

00:36:15.180 that Kim Jong-un

00:36:16.780 made a statement

00:36:17.400 on Saturday

00:36:18.060 I don't think

00:36:18.680 so

00:36:18.940 okay

00:36:19.820 there is

00:36:20.380 the

00:36:20.680 there is

00:36:21.660 Trump's

00:36:22.000 admission

00:36:22.340 that Kim Jong-un

00:36:23.740 is not doing

00:36:25.120 particularly well

00:36:26.020 as the reporter

00:36:26.640 says

00:36:26.820 he made this

00:36:27.500 statement

00:36:27.720 on Saturday

00:36:28.220 because the

00:36:28.600 North Korean

00:36:28.980 government

00:36:29.300 put out a

00:36:29.800 statement

00:36:30.000 with his

00:36:30.320 name on it

00:36:30.860 and Trump

00:36:31.920 says

00:36:32.100 he made

00:36:32.480 a statement

00:36:32.920 yeah

00:36:33.380 I don't

00:36:34.040 think

00:36:34.240 he made

00:36:34.480 a statement

00:36:34.900 from what

00:36:36.240 I know

00:36:36.620 about Kim

00:36:37.100 Jong-un's 0.75

00:36:37.520 condition

00:36:37.880 something

00:36:38.180 tells me

00:36:38.720 he is not

00:36:39.460 making

00:36:39.920 statements

00:36:40.540 at the

00:36:40.820 moment

00:36:41.060 so it

00:36:41.560 would

00:36:41.680 seem

00:36:41.900 likely

00:36:42.320 that he

00:36:43.020 is in

00:36:43.520 either

00:36:44.180 a vegetative

00:36:44.800 state

00:36:45.120 or some

00:36:45.840 kind

00:36:46.000 of a

00:36:46.180 coma

00:36:46.360 or

00:36:46.960 he's

00:36:47.760 brain

00:36:47.980 dead

00:36:48.160 I don't

00:36:48.360 know

00:36:48.440 you've

00:36:48.600 seen

00:36:48.720 all of

00:36:48.980 the

00:36:49.060 reports

00:36:49.440 that

00:36:49.620 are

00:36:49.760 all

00:36:50.240 just

00:36:50.440 rumors

00:36:50.760 but

00:36:51.200 based

00:36:51.680 on what

00:36:51.940 we're

00:36:52.040 seeing

00:36:52.200 from

00:36:52.420 President

00:36:52.800 Trump's

00:36:53.100 reaction

00:36:53.560 one

00:36:54.420 would

00:36:54.620 suspect

00:36:54.960 that

00:36:55.840 perhaps

00:36:56.520 he's

00:36:56.720 not

00:36:56.880 dead

00:36:57.200 yet

00:36:57.480 but

00:36:57.680 he's

00:36:57.860 in

00:36:58.300 a

00:36:58.520 pretty

00:36:58.860 bad

00:36:59.380 way

00:36:59.800 not

00:37:00.360 great

00:37:00.560 timing

00:37:00.880 of

00:37:01.080 course

00:37:01.300 amid

00:37:01.500 a

00:37:01.620 global

00:37:01.920 pandemic

00:37:02.480 heightened

00:37:02.900 tensions

00:37:03.520 possibility

00:37:04.300 of wars

00:37:04.740 increased

00:37:05.300 particularly

00:37:05.940 with

00:37:06.320 China

00:37:06.680 and then

00:37:07.200 you have

00:37:07.360 the

00:37:07.480 Chinese

00:37:07.760 client

00:37:08.100 state

00:37:08.340 North

00:37:08.560 Korea 0.61

00:37:08.920 loses

00:37:09.580 their

00:37:09.920 dictator

00:37:10.360 so

00:37:11.200 sort

00:37:12.480 of a

00:37:12.660 tight

00:37:12.800 situation

00:37:13.320 but

00:37:13.560 again

00:37:13.840 their

00:37:14.200 perspective

00:37:15.320 nuance

00:37:15.960 totally

00:37:16.620 gone

00:37:17.000 then

00:37:18.560 President

00:37:19.020 Trump

00:37:19.560 is

00:37:21.560 asked

00:37:21.780 this

00:37:21.960 question

00:37:22.440 about

00:37:22.960 the

00:37:24.060 economy

00:37:24.500 versus

00:37:24.900 people's

00:37:25.460 lives

00:37:25.780 and

00:37:25.960 Trump

00:37:26.120 makes

00:37:26.340 an

00:37:26.440 important

00:37:26.680 point

00:37:26.960 here

00:37:27.100 he

00:37:27.220 says

00:37:27.400 these

00:37:27.820 are

00:37:27.920 not

00:37:28.100 totally

00:37:28.480 separate

00:37:29.060 questions

00:37:30.120 when

00:37:30.420 people

00:37:30.700 lose

00:37:31.040 their

00:37:31.260 freedoms

00:37:31.740 that

00:37:32.960 can

00:37:33.900 lead

00:37:34.100 to

00:37:34.280 death

00:37:34.680 as

00:37:34.980 well

00:37:35.280 it

00:37:37.360 would

00:37:37.500 depend

00:37:37.800 on

00:37:38.000 the

00:37:38.120 state

00:37:38.400 it

00:37:39.060 would

00:37:39.200 depend

00:37:39.480 on

00:37:39.640 the

00:37:39.760 circumstances

00:37:40.420 of

00:37:40.720 the

00:37:40.860 state

00:37:41.180 some

00:37:41.680 states

00:37:42.060 are

00:37:42.320 you

00:37:43.040 know

00:37:43.220 perhaps

00:37:43.760 a

00:37:43.940 little

00:37:44.060 early

00:37:44.360 and

00:37:44.540 some

00:37:44.760 states

00:37:45.080 are

00:37:45.200 a

00:37:45.300 little

00:37:45.400 bit

00:37:45.560 late

00:37:45.840 and

00:37:46.620 the

00:37:46.800 attorney

00:37:47.100 general

00:37:47.380 I

00:37:47.540 read

00:37:47.740 that

00:37:48.060 and

00:37:48.320 I

00:37:48.480 saw

00:37:48.700 that

00:37:49.040 and

00:37:49.340 frankly

00:37:49.720 the

00:37:49.960 attorney

00:37:50.200 general

00:37:50.560 doesn't

00:37:50.880 want

00:37:51.040 to

00:37:51.100 have

00:37:51.240 rights

00:37:51.480 taken

00:37:51.760 away

00:37:52.020 because

00:37:52.240 you

00:37:52.780 know

00:37:52.860 there

00:37:53.020 are

00:37:53.120 some

00:37:53.320 people

00:37:53.600 they're

00:37:53.800 not

00:37:53.940 allowed

00:37:54.140 to

00:37:54.320 open

00:37:54.620 up

00:37:54.880 a

00:37:55.160 store

00:37:55.580 or

00:37:55.840 you're

00:37:56.140 going

00:37:56.200 to

00:37:56.260 lose

00:37:56.480 their

00:37:56.680 livelihood

00:37:57.120 and

00:37:58.100 by

00:37:58.260 the

00:37:58.360 way

00:37:58.520 that

00:37:58.760 causes

00:37:59.140 death

00:37:59.560 also

00:38:00.040 between

00:38:00.980 all

00:38:01.380 of

00:38:01.520 the

00:38:01.640 things

00:38:01.940 that

00:38:02.100 happen

00:38:02.440 and

00:38:02.620 this

00:38:02.800 has

00:38:02.940 been

00:38:03.100 a

00:38:03.260 big

00:38:03.440 study

00:38:03.860 you

00:38:05.320 know

00:38:05.440 the

00:38:05.600 fact

00:38:05.840 that

00:38:06.060 people

00:38:06.420 aren't

00:38:06.780 allowed

00:38:07.120 to

00:38:07.380 have

00:38:07.640 their

00:38:07.860 freedom

00:38:08.260 causes

00:38:09.200 a

00:38:10.360 tremendous

00:38:10.800 amount

00:38:11.240 of

00:38:11.500 problems

00:38:11.980 including

00:38:12.520 death

00:38:12.940 that's

00:38:13.720 true

00:38:14.000 he

00:38:14.360 makes

00:38:14.700 a

00:38:14.820 good

00:38:14.960 point

00:38:15.220 this

00:38:15.380 is

00:38:15.500 a

00:38:15.580 point

00:38:15.720 other

00:38:15.900 conservatives

00:38:16.400 have

00:38:16.620 made

00:38:16.880 is

00:38:17.280 when

00:38:17.940 you

00:38:18.180 have

00:38:18.320 this

00:38:18.500 false

00:38:18.760 dichotomy

00:38:19.280 between

00:38:19.580 opening

00:38:19.940 up

00:38:20.100 the

00:38:20.220 economy

00:38:20.620 or

00:38:20.940 saving

00:38:21.340 lives

00:38:21.900 you

00:38:22.220 know

00:38:22.420 some

00:38:22.720 people

00:38:22.900 are

00:38:23.020 saying

00:38:23.160 I'm

00:38:23.560 not

00:38:23.700 going

00:38:23.800 to

00:38:23.920 sacrifice

00:38:24.300 lives

00:38:24.740 on

00:38:24.880 the

00:38:24.980 altar

00:38:25.200 of

00:38:25.340 the

00:38:25.440 Dow

00:38:25.640 Jones

00:38:26.080 this

00:38:28.080 is

00:38:28.240 a

00:38:28.440 false

00:38:28.900 dichotomy

00:38:29.340 the

00:38:29.500 economy

00:38:29.820 is

00:38:30.240 people

00:38:30.600 right

00:38:30.960 the

00:38:31.120 economy

00:38:31.340 is

00:38:31.440 not

00:38:31.580 only

00:38:32.020 this

00:38:32.300 abstract

00:38:32.900 notion

00:38:33.400 it's

00:38:33.780 actually

00:38:33.980 people

00:38:34.300 and how

00:38:34.540 we

00:38:34.660 go to

00:38:34.860 work

00:38:35.080 and how

00:38:35.300 we

00:38:35.440 live

00:38:35.780 and

00:38:37.060 when

00:38:37.260 you

00:38:37.380 completely

00:38:37.740 shut

00:38:38.000 that

00:38:38.140 down

00:38:38.420 you

00:38:38.860 see

00:38:39.000 spikes 0.79

00:38:39.320 in

00:38:39.460 things

00:38:39.640 like

00:38:39.800 drug

00:38:40.020 overdoses

00:38:40.460 and

00:38:40.700 suicides

00:38:41.300 and so

00:38:42.520 that

00:38:42.700 leads

00:38:42.900 to

00:38:43.060 death

00:38:43.280 as

00:38:43.460 well

00:38:43.680 a

00:38:44.420 good

00:38:44.680 point

00:38:44.960 to

00:38:45.100 make

00:38:45.340 it's

00:38:46.320 an

00:38:46.400 easy

00:38:46.560 way

00:38:46.700 to

00:38:46.800 knock

00:38:47.020 down

00:38:47.200 their

00:38:47.340 false

00:38:47.540 dichotomy

00:38:48.060 but

00:38:48.400 it's

00:38:49.560 not

00:38:49.740 really

00:38:50.080 the

00:38:50.280 argument

00:38:50.700 okay

00:38:51.660 even

00:38:54.020 if

00:38:54.620 freedom

00:38:55.660 even

00:38:56.220 if

00:38:56.420 true

00:38:56.860 liberty

00:38:57.360 meant

00:38:58.620 that

00:38:58.840 there's

00:38:59.080 a

00:38:59.240 slightly

00:38:59.540 higher

00:38:59.980 death

00:39:00.320 rate

00:39:00.700 in

00:39:02.980 normal

00:39:03.280 times

00:39:03.700 generally

00:39:04.060 speaking

00:39:04.580 it

00:39:06.080 would

00:39:06.260 still

00:39:06.540 be

00:39:06.700 a

00:39:06.880 good

00:39:07.080 thing

00:39:07.480 in

00:39:07.900 fact

00:39:08.020 we

00:39:08.140 know

00:39:08.280 that

00:39:08.400 there

00:39:08.540 is

00:39:08.700 a

00:39:08.800 good

00:39:08.900 example

00:39:09.200 of

00:39:09.340 this

00:39:09.500 is

00:39:09.720 driving

00:39:10.880 around

00:39:11.240 we

00:39:12.000 have

00:39:12.320 various

00:39:12.800 speed

00:39:13.020 limits

00:39:13.240 in

00:39:13.360 the

00:39:13.440 United

00:39:13.640 States

00:39:14.060 and

00:39:14.760 we

00:39:14.900 have

00:39:15.160 38,000

00:39:16.580 driver

00:39:17.100 deaths

00:39:17.380 per

00:39:17.600 year

00:39:17.820 if

00:39:17.960 we

00:39:18.040 lower

00:39:18.380 the

00:39:18.560 speed

00:39:18.740 limit

00:39:18.960 to

00:39:19.120 20

00:39:19.340 miles

00:39:19.580 an

00:39:19.720 hour

00:39:19.900 we

00:39:20.280 have

00:39:20.360 zero

00:39:20.680 driver

00:39:21.420 deaths

00:39:21.780 per

00:39:22.080 year

00:39:22.280 or

00:39:22.460 virtually

00:39:22.840 zero

00:39:23.260 and

00:39:24.100 yet

00:39:24.240 we

00:39:24.400 don't

00:39:24.740 reduce

00:39:25.100 that

00:39:25.400 down

00:39:25.680 to

00:39:25.780 20

00:39:25.980 miles

00:39:26.220 an

00:39:26.380 hour

00:39:26.500 because

00:39:26.740 we're

00:39:27.000 tolerating

00:39:27.600 certain

00:39:27.960 risk

00:39:28.400 because

00:39:28.700 we

00:39:28.860 want

00:39:29.040 to

00:39:29.140 exercise

00:39:29.540 our

00:39:29.900 freedom

00:39:30.180 responsibly

00:39:31.000 we're

00:39:31.180 not

00:39:31.300 saying

00:39:31.460 that

00:39:31.800 the

00:39:31.940 speed

00:39:32.120 limit

00:39:32.280 is

00:39:32.420 400

00:39:32.760 miles

00:39:33.140 an

00:39:33.280 hour

00:39:33.420 that

00:39:33.600 would

00:39:33.720 be

00:39:33.840 irresponsible

00:39:34.360 too

00:39:34.740 but

00:39:35.220 we

00:39:35.440 are

00:39:35.680 saying

00:39:36.140 that

00:39:36.320 we

00:39:36.460 are

00:39:36.580 going

00:39:36.700 to

00:39:36.800 have

00:39:36.900 a

00:39:37.060 responsible

00:39:37.680 exercise

00:39:38.100 of

00:39:38.260 our

00:39:38.360 liberty

00:39:38.640 that's

00:39:39.120 going

00:39:39.300 to

00:39:39.460 entail

00:39:39.660 certain

00:39:39.940 risk

00:39:40.300 but

00:39:40.600 the

00:39:40.760 liberty

00:39:41.000 is

00:39:41.200 worth

00:39:41.440 the

00:39:41.600 risk

00:39:41.880 right

00:39:42.180 Americans

00:39:44.640 are

00:39:44.860 losing

00:39:45.160 that

00:39:45.460 idea

00:39:45.780 of

00:39:45.900 the

00:39:45.980 argument

00:39:46.320 we're

00:39:46.700 only

00:39:47.060 arguing

00:39:47.560 from

00:39:47.800 this

00:39:47.960 very

00:39:48.420 utilitarian

00:39:49.260 narrow

00:39:49.640 perspective

00:39:50.120 of

00:39:50.400 how

00:39:50.620 many

00:39:50.820 deaths

00:39:51.180 if

00:39:51.460 one

00:39:52.420 extra

00:39:52.720 person

00:39:53.080 dies

00:39:53.520 then

00:39:53.860 that's

00:39:55.340 unacceptable

00:39:56.680 and

00:39:57.280 you know

00:39:57.560 if we

00:39:57.760 save

00:39:58.020 even

00:39:58.220 one

00:39:58.440 life

00:39:58.660 to

00:39:58.780 quote

00:39:58.960 Andy

00:39:59.180 Cuomo

00:39:59.480 then

00:40:00.380 everything

00:40:00.940 will

00:40:01.240 have

00:40:01.380 been

00:40:01.520 worth

00:40:01.820 it

00:40:01.940 even

00:40:02.080 though

00:40:02.220 that

00:40:02.340 ends

00:40:02.480 up

00:40:02.620 costing

00:40:02.920 lives

00:40:03.280 Nancy

00:40:04.060 Pelosi

00:40:04.480 is

00:40:04.880 now

00:40:05.200 taking

00:40:05.620 this

00:40:05.940 power

00:40:06.780 grab

00:40:09.660 universal

00:40:10.060 basic

00:40:10.420 income

00:40:10.760 and

00:40:10.960 unfortunately

00:40:11.620 the

00:40:12.200 Republicans

00:40:12.600 kind of

00:40:12.960 let her 0.89

00:40:13.160 get away

00:40:13.460 with it

00:40:13.720 because

00:40:14.100 the

00:40:14.780 Republicans

00:40:15.120 were behind

00:40:15.600 this idea

00:40:15.980 that everyone

00:40:16.340 should get

00:40:16.640 a stimulus

00:40:17.080 check

00:40:17.420 straight from

00:40:17.820 the federal

00:40:18.140 government

00:40:18.460 now Nancy

00:40:18.940 Pelosi

00:40:19.240 is saying

00:40:19.480 wait a second

00:40:20.000 people can't 0.97

00:40:20.720 live on

00:40:20.960 1200 bucks

00:40:21.700 we should

00:40:22.300 continue

00:40:22.760 to give

00:40:23.180 them

00:40:23.440 these

00:40:24.180 stimulus

00:40:24.620 checks

00:40:25.040 this

00:40:25.260 universal

00:40:25.680 basic

00:40:26.060 income

00:40:26.420 into the

00:40:27.300 foreseeable

00:40:27.680 future

00:40:28.020 well I

00:40:28.720 think we

00:40:29.060 should

00:40:29.240 extend

00:40:29.580 the

00:40:29.780 time

00:40:30.120 I

00:40:30.460 really

00:40:30.820 do

00:40:31.040 I

00:40:31.160 always

00:40:31.360 thought

00:40:31.540 that

00:40:31.720 was

00:40:31.900 too

00:40:32.080 short

00:40:32.340 a

00:40:32.480 time

00:40:32.760 I

00:40:33.240 think

00:40:33.400 we

00:40:33.560 should

00:40:33.820 extend

00:40:34.220 the

00:40:34.380 time

00:40:34.580 I

00:40:34.740 think

00:40:34.960 what

00:40:35.400 you

00:40:35.620 suggest

00:40:36.500 makes

00:40:36.820 all the

00:40:37.140 sense

00:40:37.420 in the

00:40:38.240 world

00:40:38.640 and then

00:40:39.380 again

00:40:39.760 as we

00:40:40.220 go

00:40:40.400 forward

00:40:40.680 let's

00:40:40.980 see

00:40:41.200 what

00:40:41.780 works

00:40:42.300 what

00:40:43.440 is

00:40:43.720 what

00:40:44.940 is

00:40:45.120 operational

00:40:45.760 and

00:40:46.100 what

00:40:46.300 needs

00:40:46.600 other

00:40:47.220 attention

00:40:47.880 others

00:40:48.420 have

00:40:48.640 suggested

00:40:49.180 a

00:40:49.380 minimum

00:40:49.640 income

00:40:50.520 for

00:40:51.060 a

00:40:51.780 guaranteed

00:40:52.160 income

00:40:52.640 for

00:40:52.900 people

00:40:53.280 is that

00:40:53.980 worthy

00:40:54.340 of

00:40:54.980 attention

00:40:55.440 now

00:40:55.740 perhaps

00:40:56.220 so

00:40:56.660 because

00:40:57.280 there

00:40:57.460 are

00:40:57.500 many

00:40:57.680 more

00:40:57.980 people

00:40:58.340 than

00:40:58.580 just

00:40:58.880 in

00:40:59.380 small

00:40:59.660 business

00:41:00.080 and

00:41:00.280 hired

00:41:00.520 by

00:41:00.720 small

00:41:00.940 business

00:41:01.300 as

00:41:01.760 important

00:41:02.140 as

00:41:02.340 that is

00:41:02.620 to

00:41:02.760 the

00:41:02.880 vitality

00:41:03.460 of

00:41:03.580 our

00:41:03.700 economy

00:41:04.100 and

00:41:04.580 other

00:41:04.800 people

00:41:05.180 who

00:41:05.400 are

00:41:05.500 not

00:41:05.720 in

00:41:05.900 the

00:41:06.020 public

00:41:06.280 sector

00:41:06.820 meeting

00:41:09.180 our

00:41:09.460 needs

00:41:09.780 in

00:41:09.940 so

00:41:10.160 many

00:41:10.420 ways

00:41:10.920 that

00:41:11.680 may

00:41:11.860 need

00:41:12.120 some

00:41:12.340 assistance

00:41:12.920 as

00:41:13.540 well

00:41:13.860 so

00:41:14.340 there

00:41:14.740 it

00:41:14.900 is

00:41:15.140 Nancy

00:41:15.420 Pelosi

00:41:15.740 speaking

00:41:16.100 broadly

00:41:16.540 about

00:41:16.900 more

00:41:17.180 money

00:41:17.460 to

00:41:17.860 small

00:41:18.440 businesses

00:41:18.840 which

00:41:19.780 she

00:41:20.060 actually

00:41:20.260 was

00:41:20.420 holding

00:41:20.620 up

00:41:20.840 herself

00:41:21.240 and

00:41:21.800 then

00:41:21.940 more

00:41:22.120 money

00:41:22.380 to

00:41:22.600 the

00:41:22.720 people

00:41:23.040 and

00:41:23.780 this

00:41:25.000 idea

00:41:25.380 of

00:41:25.940 extending

00:41:26.500 stimulus

00:41:27.260 to

00:41:28.220 everybody

00:41:28.860 over

00:41:29.080 longer

00:41:29.360 periods

00:41:29.660 of

00:41:29.780 time

00:41:29.920 the

00:41:30.060 UBI

00:41:30.440 has

00:41:31.620 been

00:41:31.820 entertained

00:41:32.380 by

00:41:33.020 both

00:41:33.400 sides

00:41:33.680 of

00:41:33.780 the

00:41:33.880 political

00:41:34.140 aisle

00:41:34.440 it's

00:41:34.620 been

00:41:34.740 entertained

00:41:35.040 by

00:41:35.240 progressives

00:41:35.800 like

00:41:36.000 Pelosi

00:41:36.340 and

00:41:36.960 by

00:41:37.100 people

00:41:37.300 on

00:41:37.440 the

00:41:37.520 right

00:41:37.700 like

00:41:37.940 Charles

00:41:38.280 Murray

00:41:38.580 and

00:41:38.940 even

00:41:39.080 the

00:41:39.240 libertarian

00:41:39.740 Cato

00:41:40.040 Institute

00:41:40.480 has

00:41:41.240 written

00:41:41.520 in

00:41:41.840 defense

00:41:42.220 of

00:41:42.480 something

00:41:42.780 like

00:41:43.120 the

00:41:43.420 UBI

00:41:43.980 universal

00:41:44.940 basic

00:41:45.360 income

00:41:45.720 this

00:41:46.780 shows

00:41:47.080 us

00:41:47.240 something

00:41:47.540 about

00:41:47.980 how

00:41:48.260 we

00:41:48.440 understand

00:41:48.840 liberty

00:41:49.140 it

00:41:49.320 shows

00:41:49.560 us

00:41:49.820 that

00:41:50.160 hyper

00:41:51.160 individualists

00:41:52.060 on

00:41:52.320 the

00:41:52.480 right

00:41:52.800 and

00:41:54.020 statists

00:41:55.140 on

00:41:55.400 the

00:41:55.520 left

00:41:55.840 have

00:41:56.540 more

00:41:56.880 in

00:41:57.100 common

00:41:57.440 than

00:41:57.900 we

00:41:58.060 might

00:41:58.340 think

00:41:58.700 that

00:41:59.580 somehow

00:41:59.980 libertarians

00:42:00.900 and

00:42:01.500 progressives

00:42:02.280 maybe

00:42:03.040 they have

00:42:03.360 something

00:42:03.620 in

00:42:03.840 common

00:42:04.100 classical

00:42:04.620 liberals

00:42:05.040 and

00:42:05.260 leftist

00:42:05.600 liberals

00:42:05.940 maybe

00:42:06.440 they're

00:42:06.600 not

00:42:06.740 opposites

00:42:07.160 maybe

00:42:07.360 they

00:42:07.540 actually

00:42:07.880 have

00:42:08.360 something

00:42:08.740 in

00:42:09.060 common

00:42:09.380 everybody

00:42:10.960 thinks

00:42:11.740 he's

00:42:12.240 for

00:42:12.420 liberty

00:42:12.760 every

00:42:13.580 person

00:42:13.960 around

00:42:14.280 thinks

00:42:14.660 he's

00:42:14.940 for

00:42:15.140 liberty

00:42:15.500 the

00:42:15.940 wackos 0.93

00:42:16.340 in

00:42:16.460 the

00:42:16.560 French

00:42:16.740 revolution

00:42:17.200 and

00:42:17.740 the

00:42:17.880 good

00:42:18.000 people

00:42:18.240 in

00:42:18.380 the

00:42:18.480 American

00:42:18.700 revolution

00:42:19.100 both

00:42:19.420 thought

00:42:19.980 they

00:42:20.100 were

00:42:20.220 fighting

00:42:20.460 for

00:42:20.640 liberty

00:42:20.900 obviously

00:42:21.200 very

00:42:21.440 different

00:42:21.720 conceptions

00:42:22.220 of

00:42:22.360 liberty

00:42:22.600 the

00:42:22.980 question

00:42:23.340 is

00:42:23.660 what

00:42:24.160 is

00:42:24.460 liberty

00:42:24.840 right

00:42:25.900 now

00:42:26.080 in

00:42:26.160 the

00:42:26.240 United

00:42:26.440 States

00:42:26.760 the

00:42:56.520 me

00:42:56.620 alone

00:42:56.880 to

00:42:57.040 define

00:42:57.380 my

00:42:57.580 own

00:42:57.740 gender

00:42:58.000 and

00:42:58.180 use

00:42:58.340 the

00:42:58.480 bathrooms

00:42:58.820 that

00:42:59.000 I

00:42:59.080 want

00:42:59.200 to

00:42:59.280 use

00:42:59.520 both

00:43:00.860 define

00:43:01.620 liberty

00:43:02.100 in a

00:43:04.000 very

00:43:04.220 similar

00:43:04.660 way

00:43:05.020 actually

00:43:05.720 they

00:43:06.580 both

00:43:06.860 define

00:43:07.260 liberty

00:43:07.680 as

00:43:08.200 doing

00:43:08.980 whatever

00:43:09.460 you

00:43:10.160 want

00:43:10.520 to

00:43:10.720 do

00:43:11.020 following

00:43:11.900 your

00:43:12.320 own

00:43:12.560 desires

00:43:13.120 following

00:43:13.760 your

00:43:14.160 own

00:43:14.400 passions

00:43:14.920 obviously

00:43:15.760 that

00:43:16.160 represents

00:43:17.000 a little

00:43:17.520 differently

00:43:17.880 on the

00:43:18.160 right

00:43:18.340 it's

00:43:18.480 more

00:43:18.640 economic

00:43:19.020 on the

00:43:19.300 left

00:43:19.440 it's

00:43:19.580 more

00:43:19.720 social

00:43:20.040 but

00:43:20.440 it's

00:43:20.580 the

00:43:20.700 same

00:43:20.900 basic

00:43:21.360 definition

00:43:22.040 of

00:43:22.220 liberty

00:43:22.500 they

00:43:24.120 might

00:43:24.440 disagree

00:43:24.820 about

00:43:25.060 the

00:43:25.200 details

00:43:25.580 but

00:43:25.780 they

00:43:25.920 both

00:43:26.200 agree

00:43:26.500 on

00:43:26.720 the

00:43:26.860 primacy

00:43:27.480 of

00:43:27.680 individual

00:43:28.400 desire

00:43:29.460 okay

00:43:30.640 and

00:43:30.840 the

00:43:31.000 trouble

00:43:31.340 with

00:43:31.580 that

00:43:31.760 is

00:43:32.020 as

00:43:32.580 individual

00:43:33.260 desire

00:43:33.980 grows

00:43:34.600 and

00:43:35.020 gets

00:43:35.240 unleashed

00:43:35.980 and

00:43:36.720 as

00:43:37.100 the

00:43:37.400 restraints

00:43:37.980 on

00:43:38.120 individual

00:43:38.460 desire

00:43:38.860 break

00:43:39.260 down

00:43:39.640 the

00:43:40.200 state

00:43:40.580 grows

00:43:41.020 too

00:43:41.360 this

00:43:41.940 always

00:43:42.540 happens

00:43:43.060 and

00:43:43.720 we

00:43:43.940 never

00:43:44.180 think

00:43:46.160 so

00:43:47.420 as

00:43:47.660 the

00:43:47.820 focus

00:43:48.120 on

00:43:48.280 the

00:43:48.380 individual

00:43:48.700 grows

00:43:49.040 the

00:43:49.220 focus

00:43:49.480 on

00:43:49.660 the

00:43:49.760 family

00:43:50.120 the

00:43:50.300 focus

00:43:50.540 on

00:43:50.700 the

00:43:50.800 local

00:43:51.000 community

00:43:51.480 the

00:43:51.920 focus

00:43:52.340 on

00:43:52.800 local

00:43:53.400 bonds

00:43:53.860 of

00:43:54.060 loyalty

00:43:54.500 and

00:43:54.820 unchosen

00:43:55.540 obligations

00:43:56.200 you know

00:43:56.760 we always

00:43:57.040 talk about

00:43:57.340 consent

00:43:57.840 we'll talk about

00:43:58.640 consent in a moment

00:43:59.280 when we get to

00:43:59.660 Joe Biden

00:44:00.100 right

00:44:00.980 the things that we

00:44:01.960 don't choose

00:44:02.620 freely

00:44:02.940 that we're

00:44:03.200 just kind of

00:44:03.540 born into

00:44:04.060 and obligations

00:44:04.600 we have

00:44:04.920 and duties

00:44:05.280 that we

00:44:05.580 have

00:44:05.820 and inherited

00:44:06.600 conventions

00:44:07.060 that we

00:44:07.400 have

00:44:07.580 and traditions

00:44:08.120 that we

00:44:08.460 have

00:44:08.600 those things

00:44:09.320 go away

00:44:09.860 when you

00:44:10.200 just focus

00:44:10.980 on the

00:44:11.840 individual

00:44:12.280 and following

00:44:12.940 individual

00:44:13.620 desires

00:44:14.140 whether it's

00:44:14.540 on the

00:44:14.740 right

00:44:14.920 or on

00:44:15.320 the

00:44:15.420 left

00:44:15.680 whether

00:44:16.300 we're

00:44:16.500 talking

00:44:16.680 about

00:44:16.840 globalized

00:44:17.380 free trade

00:44:17.960 or we're

00:44:18.380 talking about

00:44:18.780 gender neutral

00:44:19.300 bathrooms

00:44:19.780 or we're

00:44:20.360 talking about

00:44:21.020 moving away

00:44:22.620 from your

00:44:22.900 family

00:44:23.200 or whatever

00:44:23.560 things that

00:44:23.960 everybody

00:44:24.500 does in

00:44:25.260 this modern

00:44:25.680 society

00:44:26.140 the problem

00:44:26.960 with that

00:44:27.400 is

00:44:27.700 when you

00:44:28.360 are left

00:44:28.740 with just

00:44:29.180 a bunch

00:44:29.500 of atomized

00:44:30.200 individuals

00:44:30.800 then

00:44:32.360 that group

00:44:33.640 is very

00:44:34.240 vulnerable

00:44:34.700 to the

00:44:35.160 state

00:44:35.420 when you're

00:44:36.600 left with

00:44:36.940 just a bunch

00:44:37.360 of atomized

00:44:37.860 individuals

00:44:38.340 there's

00:44:38.900 nowhere to

00:44:39.460 turn

00:44:39.780 when we're

00:44:40.200 in trouble

00:44:40.640 like a

00:44:41.280 global

00:44:41.540 pandemic

00:44:41.960 but to

00:44:43.180 turn

00:44:43.540 to the

00:44:44.160 state

00:44:44.460 because all

00:44:45.480 those other

00:44:45.840 institutions

00:44:46.400 that we

00:44:46.720 might have

00:44:46.960 turned to

00:44:47.300 before

00:44:47.660 the family

00:44:48.800 most importantly

00:44:49.420 but the

00:44:49.780 Lions Club

00:44:50.380 the local

00:44:51.340 community

00:44:51.860 the parish

00:44:52.680 the right

00:44:53.320 those things

00:44:54.000 have been so

00:44:54.520 weakened

00:44:54.920 that they

00:44:55.420 actually can't

00:44:55.880 take care of

00:44:56.260 the people

00:44:56.600 so you got

00:44:57.120 to turn

00:44:57.340 to the

00:44:57.580 state

00:44:57.780 this is

00:44:58.040 the premise

00:44:58.420 of the

00:44:59.020 Obama

00:44:59.320 campaign's

00:44:59.920 life of

00:45:00.340 Julia

00:45:00.680 this is

00:45:01.340 the premise

00:45:01.800 of a lot

00:45:03.180 of thought

00:45:05.440 experiments

00:45:05.840 in recent years

00:45:06.420 on the right

00:45:07.080 and the left

00:45:07.460 it's the reason

00:45:07.960 why the right

00:45:08.440 sometimes embraces

00:45:09.520 the UBI

00:45:10.100 so societies

00:45:11.420 that start out

00:45:12.240 very individualistic

00:45:13.640 end up

00:45:14.620 very statist

00:45:15.720 isn't that

00:45:16.380 strange

00:45:17.120 you can actually

00:45:18.140 see it

00:45:18.560 if you want to

00:45:19.060 watch this

00:45:19.520 happen in real

00:45:20.000 time

00:45:20.240 you can see it

00:45:21.040 in the writings

00:45:21.520 of Thomas Jefferson

00:45:22.380 and Thomas Paine

00:45:23.160 so all the way

00:45:24.280 back then

00:45:24.740 in the early days

00:45:25.740 the American

00:45:26.120 revolution

00:45:26.600 you see

00:45:27.520 Thomas Jefferson

00:45:28.180 and Thomas Paine

00:45:28.740 they start out

00:45:29.300 writing

00:45:29.600 they're like

00:45:30.240 hyper individualist

00:45:31.340 classical liberal

00:45:32.300 libertarian

00:45:33.080 sort of right wing

00:45:33.840 and then by the end

00:45:34.840 of their lives

00:45:35.880 they're writing

00:45:36.700 in this very statist

00:45:37.960 way

00:45:38.500 very progressive

00:45:39.780 way

00:45:40.180 about how

00:45:40.940 we need

00:45:41.460 the state

00:45:41.880 to come in

00:45:42.440 and provide

00:45:43.540 lots of things

00:45:44.160 for people

00:45:44.600 it's not that

00:45:46.480 they flipped

00:45:46.920 it's not that

00:45:47.360 they're total

00:45:47.780 opposites

00:45:48.240 it's that

00:45:48.820 that's the

00:45:49.180 natural progression

00:45:50.020 of things

00:45:50.480 I bring this up

00:45:52.820 because coronavirus

00:45:54.860 is making this

00:45:55.980 a very stark

00:45:56.820 reality

00:45:57.280 okay people

00:45:57.880 right now

00:45:58.380 are feeling

00:45:58.920 isolated

00:45:59.480 they're feeling

00:46:00.340 socially isolated

00:46:02.100 they're feeling

00:46:02.480 economically

00:46:03.140 helpless

00:46:03.920 we're all just

00:46:04.420 trapped in our

00:46:04.900 apartments right

00:46:05.600 and we know

00:46:07.660 from the social

00:46:08.180 science

00:46:08.460 people have been

00:46:08.940 getting lonelier

00:46:09.800 and lonelier

00:46:10.960 in recent decades

00:46:11.980 now we see

00:46:13.020 just how lonely

00:46:14.060 we are

00:46:14.500 because you know

00:46:15.400 if this had

00:46:16.060 happened 70 years

00:46:17.020 ago

00:46:17.260 we probably

00:46:18.100 wouldn't be

00:46:18.980 trapped in our

00:46:19.480 apartments alone

00:46:20.180 for a lot of

00:46:21.280 people we'd

00:46:21.600 probably be in

00:46:22.240 big houses

00:46:23.040 in big communities

00:46:24.040 with thriving

00:46:25.340 local associations

00:46:26.240 and now we

00:46:28.580 just have less

00:46:29.220 of that

00:46:29.600 you know

00:46:29.900 we're more

00:46:30.380 urban

00:46:30.860 urbanized

00:46:31.880 we move more

00:46:32.480 to the cities

00:46:33.080 we are more

00:46:34.080 ready to live

00:46:34.980 alone

00:46:35.420 or live apart

00:46:37.000 from family

00:46:37.460 and social

00:46:37.860 connections

00:46:38.320 this is why

00:46:40.320 any authentic

00:46:41.500 conservative

00:46:42.420 alternative

00:46:43.220 needs to

00:46:44.920 really offer

00:46:45.720 an alternative

00:46:46.340 here

00:46:46.600 okay

00:46:46.860 conservatives

00:46:47.720 traditionally

00:46:48.360 had a different

00:46:49.260 definition of

00:46:49.940 liberty than we

00:46:50.540 started with

00:46:51.020 that definition

00:46:51.740 of liberty

00:46:52.160 that the right

00:46:52.620 and the left

00:46:52.980 right now

00:46:53.280 both share

00:46:53.740 which is just

00:46:54.220 doing whatever

00:46:54.720 you want to do

00:46:55.340 following your

00:46:56.080 own individual

00:46:56.560 desire

00:46:56.960 that's not

00:46:57.700 the traditional

00:46:58.280 definition of

00:46:58.980 liberty

00:46:59.200 from conservatives

00:46:59.980 the traditional

00:47:01.920 definition of

00:47:02.560 liberty is

00:47:03.240 something that

00:47:03.920 you had to

00:47:04.280 earn

00:47:04.660 right

00:47:06.280 so the

00:47:06.960 the liberal

00:47:07.920 idea

00:47:08.400 the kind of

00:47:09.300 left and right

00:47:10.060 classical liberal

00:47:10.740 and progressive

00:47:11.340 liberal idea

00:47:11.900 is based on this

00:47:13.160 false premise

00:47:13.780 that man is born

00:47:14.560 free in a state

00:47:15.480 of nature

00:47:15.920 and he's a free

00:47:16.760 individual in a

00:47:17.320 state of nature

00:47:17.760 and then he

00:47:18.340 chooses through

00:47:18.900 consent and a

00:47:19.560 social contract

00:47:20.240 to constitute a

00:47:21.200 government

00:47:21.500 trouble with that

00:47:22.220 is that's not

00:47:22.900 actually how any

00:47:23.940 society has ever

00:47:24.720 developed and

00:47:25.400 that's not how

00:47:25.840 people are born

00:47:26.440 we are not born

00:47:27.460 free in a state

00:47:28.060 of nature

00:47:28.440 we are born

00:47:29.320 into families

00:47:30.160 with obligations

00:47:30.860 we're not free

00:47:31.680 floating

00:47:32.040 we're born into

00:47:33.100 places with

00:47:33.800 duties and

00:47:34.600 conventions and

00:47:35.720 associations and

00:47:36.640 bonds of loyalty

00:47:37.300 and we're not

00:47:38.100 free we're slaves

00:47:38.980 to our own

00:47:39.580 passions

00:47:40.060 little babies

00:47:41.020 are not free

00:47:41.620 little toddlers

00:47:42.280 are not free

00:47:42.780 they're monsters

00:47:43.500 who can't do

00:47:44.360 anything to

00:47:45.120 resist their

00:47:45.560 passions

00:47:45.920 they eat all

00:47:46.600 the cookies

00:47:46.980 right and

00:47:47.660 what we have

00:47:48.080 to do

00:47:48.360 through for

00:47:48.840 instance the

00:47:49.460 liberal arts

00:47:50.180 and liberal

00:47:50.520 education is

00:47:51.600 to learn how

00:47:52.480 to make sense

00:47:53.040 of our freedom

00:47:53.600 and to earn

00:47:54.560 our freedom

00:47:55.000 because freedom

00:47:55.500 is a responsibility

00:47:56.560 and we have to

00:47:57.580 learn how to do

00:47:58.280 that to to

00:47:59.680 pursue the good

00:48:00.980 and govern

00:48:01.320 ourselves and

00:48:02.180 that's how you

00:48:02.680 have a free

00:48:03.300 society

00:48:04.240 the less we

00:48:05.080 control ourselves

00:48:05.840 the more order

00:48:06.540 will be imposed

00:48:07.180 on us

00:48:07.680 which means

00:48:08.240 actually in a way

00:48:08.840 Gavin Newsom

00:48:09.480 at the top of our

00:48:10.120 show has a point

00:48:11.240 Gavin Newsom

00:48:12.060 who says

00:48:12.380 look I'll let you

00:48:13.360 go to the beaches

00:48:13.880 but you've got to

00:48:14.540 behave yourselves

00:48:15.140 or else I'm not

00:48:15.780 going to let you

00:48:16.340 do it

00:48:16.580 in a way he's

00:48:17.380 got a point

00:48:17.880 if we cannot

00:48:19.480 discipline ourselves

00:48:20.520 if we can not

00:48:21.780 think of liberty

00:48:22.580 as anything more

00:48:23.940 than just pursuing

00:48:24.680 my own individual

00:48:25.840 appetites and

00:48:26.680 desires

00:48:27.040 then we're not

00:48:28.360 going to be

00:48:28.980 a free people

00:48:29.600 because we

00:48:31.060 won't be able

00:48:31.960 to make sense

00:48:32.500 of our own

00:48:32.900 freedom

00:48:33.180 we've got to

00:48:34.640 start viewing

00:48:35.040 liberty as

00:48:36.000 something that

00:48:37.100 we earn

00:48:37.580 we've got to

00:48:38.440 start thinking

00:48:39.620 about liberty

00:48:40.260 as something

00:48:40.980 bigger than

00:48:41.680 just fulfilling

00:48:42.640 whatever short

00:48:43.420 desire I have

00:48:44.100 and we know

00:48:45.800 that Joe Biden

00:48:46.300 is not going

00:48:46.680 to be able

00:48:46.900 to do that

00:48:47.380 because all

00:48:49.060 Joe Biden

00:48:49.440 never does

00:48:49.920 is fulfill

00:48:50.620 his own

00:48:50.960 desires

00:48:51.340 sometimes a

00:48:52.640 little bit

00:48:52.880 too much

00:48:53.220 apparently

00:48:53.520 before we

00:48:53.980 go I

00:48:54.180 just have

00:48:54.440 to point

00:48:54.740 out

00:48:54.900 you know

00:48:55.120 the Biden

00:48:55.460 story

00:48:55.840 he's got

00:48:56.440 the allegation

00:48:57.080 against him

00:48:57.720 that he

00:48:58.680 sexually 0.61

00:48:59.700 assaulted

00:49:00.080 a former

00:49:00.440 staffer

00:49:01.020 and the

00:49:02.540 woman 0.99

00:49:02.980 doesn't

00:49:04.360 necessarily

00:49:04.780 seem super

00:49:05.380 credible

00:49:05.700 the story

00:49:06.260 was never

00:49:07.040 talked about

00:49:07.460 for decades

00:49:08.040 when she

00:49:09.340 initially came

00:49:10.040 out with it

00:49:10.500 it was not

00:49:11.060 nearly as

00:49:11.440 egregious

00:49:11.840 as what

00:49:12.200 she's saying

00:49:12.560 right now

00:49:13.020 obviously the

00:49:13.560 timing is

00:49:13.960 convenient

00:49:14.280 because he's

00:49:14.620 running for

00:49:14.980 president

00:49:15.300 there was a

00:49:16.620 little

00:49:16.740 corroboration

00:49:17.420 because her

00:49:19.180 mother

00:49:19.520 coincidentally

00:49:20.080 called into

00:49:20.500 the Larry

00:49:20.880 King show

00:49:21.460 the week

00:49:23.200 or something

00:49:23.680 that she

00:49:24.400 got fired

00:49:24.960 left the

00:49:26.320 Biden office

00:49:26.980 to corroborate

00:49:28.060 this issue

00:49:28.520 that she

00:49:28.780 was having

00:49:29.100 now

00:49:29.840 the accuser

00:49:31.440 Tara Reid

00:49:32.060 her former

00:49:32.540 neighbor

00:49:32.860 Linda Lacasse

00:49:33.840 has confirmed

00:49:35.080 that Reid

00:49:35.620 told her

00:49:36.160 of the

00:49:36.480 assault

00:49:36.800 and she

00:49:37.840 says this

00:49:38.300 happened

00:49:38.660 and I

00:49:38.980 know it

00:49:39.260 did

00:49:39.380 because I

00:49:39.720 remember

00:49:40.100 talking

00:49:40.520 about it

00:49:40.920 that's

00:49:41.120 what she

00:49:41.300 told

00:49:41.500 business

00:49:41.820 insider

00:49:42.260 so now

00:49:42.840 we've

00:49:43.000 got

00:49:43.180 the

00:49:44.200 accusation

00:49:44.780 from a

00:49:45.120 former

00:49:45.340 staffer

00:49:45.800 not just

00:49:46.160 some

00:49:46.380 random

00:49:46.740 person

00:49:47.200 corroboration

00:49:48.540 apparently

00:49:48.880 from the

00:49:49.180 mother

00:49:49.360 corroboration

00:49:49.940 from a

00:49:50.260 friend

00:49:50.460 at the

00:49:50.760 time

00:49:51.040 this

00:49:51.600 makes

00:49:51.880 it a

00:49:52.120 much

00:49:52.320 more

00:49:52.560 serious

00:49:53.160 allegation

00:49:54.320 than

00:49:55.000 before

00:49:55.400 I'm not

00:49:55.920 even saying

00:49:56.340 it's

00:49:56.500 credible

00:49:56.760 yet

00:49:57.020 I don't

00:49:57.500 know

00:49:57.640 I want

00:49:57.880 to give

00:49:58.100 Joe Biden

00:49:58.500 the benefit

00:49:58.820 of the doubt

00:49:59.200 just like

00:49:59.500 everyone

00:49:59.720 deserves

00:50:00.040 due

00:50:00.220 process

00:50:00.600 we know

00:50:01.380 this is

00:50:01.740 a much

00:50:02.140 more

00:50:02.480 serious

00:50:03.540 allegation

00:50:04.600 than anything

00:50:05.260 ever

00:50:06.000 against

00:50:06.620 Brett Kavanaugh

00:50:07.560 we know

00:50:08.680 Tara

00:50:08.920 Reid

00:50:09.140 is

00:50:09.280 much

00:50:09.620 more

00:50:09.840 credible

00:50:10.220 than

00:50:10.560 Christine

00:50:10.920 Blasey

00:50:11.360 Ford

00:50:11.560 or any

00:50:11.820 of

00:50:11.940 those

00:50:12.080 other

00:50:12.260 people

00:50:12.520 were

00:50:12.760 and

00:50:13.640 yet

00:50:13.820 the

00:50:13.960 media

00:50:14.180 won't

00:50:14.440 ask

00:50:14.680 them

00:50:14.800 about

00:50:15.020 it

00:50:15.140 because

00:50:15.260 the

00:50:15.420 media

00:50:15.740 are

00:50:16.180 certainly

00:50:17.320 not

00:50:17.540 pursuing

00:50:17.920 truth

00:50:18.560 they're

00:50:19.300 certainly

00:50:19.540 not

00:50:19.740 pursuing

00:50:20.000 the

00:50:20.160 story

00:50:20.400 they are

00:50:20.940 too

00:50:21.120 busy

00:50:21.360 whipping 0.95

00:50:21.660 us

00:50:21.880 up

00:50:22.100 into

00:50:22.540 a

00:50:22.720 frenzy

00:50:23.040 and

00:50:23.160 they're

00:50:23.280 hoping

00:50:23.500 we're

00:50:23.780 going

00:50:23.940 to

00:50:24.040 take

00:51:27.560 you know

00:51:28.280 the Matt

00:51:28.500 Walsh

00:51:28.760 show

00:51:29.000 it's not

00:51:29.740 just another

00:51:30.120 show about

00:51:30.680 about

00:51:31.140 politics

00:51:31.560 I think

00:51:31.860 there are

00:51:32.080 enough of

00:51:32.360 those

00:51:32.600 already out

00:51:33.380 there

00:51:33.520 we talk

00:51:33.960 about

00:51:34.300 culture

00:51:34.740 because

00:51:35.160 culture

00:51:35.560 drives

00:51:36.180 politics

00:51:36.740 and it

00:51:37.100 drives

00:51:37.400 everything

00:51:37.740 else

00:51:38.000 so my

00:51:38.760 main

00:51:39.000 focuses

00:51:39.440 are

00:51:39.880 life

00:51:40.740 family

00:51:41.760 faith

00:51:42.500 those are

00:51:43.460 fundamental

00:51:43.940 and that's

00:51:44.720 what this

00:51:45.000 show is

00:51:45.280 about

00:51:45.520 I hope

00:51:45.880 you'll

00:51:46.100 give it

00:51:46.720 a listen
