00:00:37.740 The NFL is gay. 1.00

00:00:40.200 It is super duper gay. 1.00

00:00:42.800 It is Liberace-level gay. 1.00

00:00:45.740 And that is not my opinion.

00:00:47.500 Well, that is my opinion, actually.

00:00:49.400 But what I'm saying is it's not my opinion.

00:00:51.580 It is my opinion because the NFL says that it is true.

00:00:57.080 And I'm not saying that the NFL is lame or stupid.

00:01:00.540 Well, I actually am saying that the NFL is lame and stupid.

00:01:03.940 But I'm not using the word gay to mean lame and stupid like people do in middle school or anything like that.

00:01:09.940 I just want to be very clear.

00:01:12.700 I am saying the NFL is gay in the narrow sense of men who are sexually attracted to men

00:01:19.320 because that's what the National Football League tells me that it is.

00:01:24.500 And not to be outdone, Kermit the Frog is gay as well.

00:01:29.260 And a British man is now a Korean. 0.96

00:01:32.280 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:01:33.360 This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:39.940 Two days left in Pride Month.

00:01:43.920 I don't know that I can keep up.

00:01:45.940 I don't know what is Kermit, the NFL, the Brits becoming Koreans. 0.98

00:01:50.740 My favorite comment yesterday from The Enforcer, who says,

00:01:55.320 I'm so glad that my kids are back in school.

00:01:58.020 They were falling behind in their Afro-Indigenous non-binary transsexual studies.

00:02:03.160 Yes, well, no, it's a big fear.

00:02:05.040 It's a big fear because, you know, you get about three years of that discipline in school.

00:02:09.820 Now, this actually is a very good point that you're making, which is many conservatives pointed out.

00:02:14.280 It's cruel to keep kids out of school and away from their friends and sports.

00:02:17.320 And it's true that it's bad to keep kids away from their friends and their sports and everything.

00:02:21.800 But keeping them out of those schools actually may be a benefit to them.

00:02:26.020 That might be the silver lining in the storm cloud of the coronavirus lockdowns.

00:02:30.500 Always trying to look for a silver lining.

00:02:33.300 Well, you know what?

00:02:34.140 Even in our crazy, chaotic world, here's one silver lining.

00:02:36.960 You can know who's on your doorstep with a ring.

00:02:39.860 There are a thousand reasons why you want to protect your home.

00:02:42.960 For me, there's one reason in particular.

00:02:45.120 Cute little June, my five-month-old baby.

00:02:47.040 He's so cute.

00:02:48.320 I want to make sure that no one comes to do him harm.

00:02:52.440 Maybe that's a burglar.

00:02:53.900 Maybe, no, maybe not just do him harm.

00:02:55.280 Maybe there's a delivery guy.

00:02:56.500 Okay, then I'll open the door.

00:02:57.920 Maybe it's my in-laws.

00:02:59.640 I don't know.

00:03:00.200 And that they love, you know, they love him.

00:03:01.780 They want to see him, but it might be, I just want to know who's outside the door.

00:03:05.380 Okay, is that so much to ask?

00:03:06.460 I can do that with a ring.

00:03:08.420 I can see and speak to whoever is on my doorstep.

00:03:11.720 I can keep an eye on every corner of my home with ring.

00:03:15.300 So simple, so affordable.

00:03:17.760 Makes a great housewarming gift, especially because it's not very expensive.

00:03:20.800 You can see and speak whether you are in your home, at your office, or on the other side of the world, all from a simple app.

00:03:28.360 Go do it.

00:03:43.580 That is ring.com slash Knowles.

00:03:46.480 I've said it for years.

00:03:48.620 I've said it for years that football is gay.

00:03:51.040 And I know that it's, that seems ambiguous because I could be referring to soccer.

00:03:55.340 But I also, I could be referring to the NFL.

00:03:59.940 And people thought I was being insulting.

00:04:01.800 They thought that I was, I'm not.

00:04:03.240 I'm trying to be very specific.

00:04:05.720 And the NFL has just proven me right yet again.

00:04:09.480 NFL coming out with a very important commercial, describing itself, identifying itself as gay.

00:04:16.160 Football is gay, they write.

00:04:23.160 Football is lesbian. 0.99

00:04:24.520 Football is beautiful.

00:04:25.760 Football is queer, exciting, transgender, power, bisexual, strong, freedom, American, accepting, everything.

00:04:33.040 Football is everything.

00:04:34.900 And football is for everyone.

00:04:37.420 The NFL.

00:04:38.500 And at the end here, it says, NFL proudly supports Trevor Project.

00:04:40.940 Perfect LGBT youth with at least one accepting adult have 40% lower risk of attempting suicide. 0.74

00:04:46.360 Go to the trevorproject.org.

00:04:48.360 Okay.

00:04:49.600 First of all, this tactic here at the end is the tactic of an abusive husband.

00:04:58.380 Because what they're saying is, if you do not get on board with Pride Month, and you do not say that football is gay, and everything is gay, and football is everything.

00:05:08.920 If you do not get on board with that, then you are killing gay people. 0.66

00:05:13.920 That's the implication.

00:05:15.520 They're saying that if you do not get totally on board with Pride Month, then you are impelling people to kill themselves.

00:05:24.840 Nobody is suggesting, nobody that I have ever met is suggesting that we should be cruel to people who, especially to young people who have unusual sexual desires, that we should ostracize them, that we should be, you know, vicious and mean.

00:05:42.140 Nobody is saying that.

00:05:43.240 But what this commercial is saying at the very end here, it's almost like a side point.

00:05:48.800 They're saying, if you do not 100% give in to a very left-wing vision of sex that includes transgender, if you won't trans the kids, I'm going to kill myself.

00:06:00.580 You're going to make me kill myself.

00:06:02.160 Why do you make me do this?

00:06:03.000 I love you so much.

00:06:03.820 This is the language and the rhetoric of an abuser.

00:06:07.520 And the left is abusing this country and using all the same manipulative tactics.

00:06:12.740 But zoom out a little bit.

00:06:15.420 Football is gay, lesbian, proud, strong, bisexual, transgender.

00:06:19.820 The list goes on and on and on.

00:06:21.120 Football is everything.

00:06:23.900 Football is not everything.

00:06:27.080 Football cannot be everything.

00:06:30.640 Nothing can be everything.

00:06:32.240 Football, for instance, is not baseball.

00:06:34.900 Football is not an omelet.

00:06:36.200 Football is not the number 15.

00:06:39.960 And this error that the left is making is to erase all distinctions between everything.

00:06:50.780 You see this obviously in the case of transgenderism, the distinction between man and woman. 0.56

00:06:56.000 You see this obviously in the case of the redefinition of marriage, the distinction between marriage and not marriage.

00:07:01.580 You see this obviously in the case of, oh gosh, I don't know, local, state, and federal government.

00:07:07.080 That's all blurring together.

00:07:08.300 You see this obviously in the case of the various institutions of our government, the various branches of power, even the institutions outside of our government.

00:07:16.740 All kind of blurring together.

00:07:18.300 The line between big tech and the universities and the government all a little blurry.

00:07:22.280 The left is blurring all these sorts of distinctions.

00:07:25.980 And they do it with their language, which, by the way, relates to my book Speechless, which is now available for order.

00:07:31.400 It's doing very well in the orders.

00:07:32.460 Thank you very much for helping me stick a finger at the eye of the left-wing bestseller list.

00:07:37.660 It would be really fun if we could manage to do that.

00:07:40.420 We'll see what happens.

00:07:41.700 This is what they want to do.

00:07:42.640 They want to blur the distinction between all of these things.

00:07:45.700 But words, this is why the left focuses on language so much.

00:07:49.680 Words discriminate.

00:07:51.640 That is what they do.

00:07:52.640 The very purpose of words is to distinguish one thing from another.

00:07:57.180 But the NFL says, no, everything is everything.

00:07:59.260 There's no distinction between anything.

00:08:00.760 They're doing it with critical race theory.

00:08:02.300 They're retreating into this position of nominalism.

00:08:04.480 They're saying, what is critical race theory?

00:08:06.060 It's nothing.

00:08:06.940 What does that word even mean?

00:08:08.100 Words don't mean anything.

00:08:09.240 It's all kind of the same, man.

00:08:12.380 Come on, have a puff.

00:08:13.400 That is the error here.

00:08:15.240 This is so far beyond the issue of gay, lesbian, transgender.

00:08:21.960 It's about everything.

00:08:22.920 But not to be outdone, Kermit the Frog does not want to be left behind in the woke cloud of dust by the NFL.

00:08:31.740 So Kermit the Frog also doing his part to promote Pride Month.

00:08:37.540 Gee, I am so sorry to interrupt.

00:08:40.380 Hi, Kermit.

00:08:41.680 What's up?

00:08:42.540 Oh, well, you see, I have a bit of a style question.

00:08:47.360 And you, you have such impeccable style.

00:08:50.180 I thought I'd come to you.

00:08:51.400 You're asking me?

00:08:52.340 Wow.

00:08:53.120 Well, you certainly know how to flatter a girl. 0.98

00:08:55.800 You see, I can't decide what to wear for my big number.

00:08:59.940 I thought maybe you could help me.

00:09:01.520 Oh, I'd love to, Kermit.

00:09:03.100 Oh, good.

00:09:03.720 But why don't you just ask Miss Piggy? 0.99

00:09:05.640 Oh, well, I did.

00:09:09.500 But I am not too crazy about her choices.

00:09:13.160 Take a look at this.

00:09:14.500 There's this one.

00:09:16.280 Whoa.

00:09:17.220 Wiki, Wiki, what is that?

00:09:19.380 Okay.

00:09:20.200 For those who were only listening and not seeing that, you're very lucky.

00:09:25.580 Congratulations.

00:09:26.140 Maybe I'll just start listening to this show myself.

00:09:29.160 There was a giant drag queen with big purple hair wearing a dress. 1.00

00:09:33.640 And it was, it's just very, very creepy to have this on children's programming.

00:09:39.780 But of course, the left has to have this on children's programming.

00:09:42.740 Of course, the trans issue has to go to the kids. 0.98

00:09:45.880 There are three positions on this, I think.

00:09:48.520 There is the left wing position, which is trans everybody, including the kids.

00:09:52.440 Then there is the kind of squishy liberal position, center right, center left, which is, well,

00:09:57.660 if adults want to mutilate their bodies, they should absolutely be allowed to do that.

00:10:01.340 But we shouldn't trans the kids. 1.00

00:10:02.780 And then there's the conservative position, which is that this is wrong.

00:10:05.700 Men are not women. 1.00

00:10:06.700 There is such a thing as truth.

00:10:08.060 There is such a thing as goodness.

00:10:09.420 And we should prefer those things to falsehood and not goodness.

00:10:13.660 And so, no, no one should be allowed to mutilate perfectly healthy body parts because

00:10:18.160 of a delusion that they have.

00:10:19.480 And people are unwilling sometimes on the squishy right to say that sort of thing.

00:10:24.380 But the problem with the squishy position here, the adults can do it, but the kids can't,

00:10:28.840 is that either a man can become a woman or he can't. 0.99

00:10:32.160 And if a man can become a woman, then it actually would be better to do that before puberty sets 0.98

00:10:37.140 in, right?

00:10:37.680 That is the left wing argument on it.

00:10:39.860 And it makes sense if you accept the premise that a man can become a woman. 0.83

00:10:43.400 So certainly, and even beyond that, beyond the question of consent, if we're saying that

00:10:48.180 it's good for a man to become a woman if he feels that he is a woman, then this question

00:10:54.040 of consent goes away.

00:10:56.160 The issue with transing the kids, the squishy people believe, is that kids can't consent. 0.98

00:11:00.260 But we're already establishing that it is a good thing for men who think they're women 0.99

00:11:04.360 to become women. 0.98

00:11:05.060 And so children have decisions made for them for their best on their behalf by their parents

00:11:12.520 all the time.

00:11:13.200 So there's no reason that transing the kids wouldn't be one of them. 0.81

00:11:16.080 You can't, if you stand in the middle of the road, especially on an issue like this, you

00:11:19.880 are going to get hit by a bus.

00:11:21.340 And the left pushes this stuff in front of kids in no small part because kids' brains

00:11:24.980 are squishy, kind of like those other Republicans.

00:11:27.860 Kids' brains are very malleable.

00:11:30.920 Kids' brains are easily influenced by what they see, particularly what they see on television.

00:11:36.360 If anyone who's ever put a kid in front of a TV knows, their brains just turn off.

00:11:39.780 They start drooling.

00:11:40.640 They start looking.

00:11:41.420 They quiet down, which is very convenient.

00:11:43.580 So the left has to push this stuff on kids through the schools, through the mainstream

00:11:48.340 media, through these television shows, all over the place.

00:11:52.980 And the conservatives are standing up against it.

00:11:55.100 But if we don't get some of those people on the center right to come with us as well, we're

00:11:58.740 just not going to have the political power to stop it.

00:12:01.060 Anyone with two brain cells and a modicum of common sense can look at this and say,

00:12:06.220 this is ghastly.

00:12:07.660 Get this away from the kids.

00:12:11.200 Unfortunately, even the conservatives of the Supreme Court do not appear to have the basic

00:12:17.800 common sense that says a man shouldn't go into the ladies' room. 0.86

00:12:20.340 Yesterday, we got word from the Supreme Court that they are turning down the opportunity

00:12:27.060 to reverse a lower court ruling that forces a school to let men, little boys, you know,

00:12:35.380 students who are men, into the women's room.

00:12:39.100 It's a little bit complicated because the court didn't rule on the case.

00:12:43.260 They refused to hear the case, which upholds the lower court ruling, which says that there

00:12:46.860 is a constitutional right for dudes to go into the women's room. 1.00

00:12:49.480 The court declined to hear the case of Gavin Grimm, who is a Virginia female student who

00:12:55.200 identifies as a boy.

00:12:56.820 So it's this girl who is pretending to be a boy who sued the Gloucester County School

00:13:01.400 Board for stating that restrooms were limited to the corresponding biological genders. 1.00

00:13:09.840 Thank goodness we got Amy Barrett on the court. 1.00

00:13:12.820 Oh, thank goodness we got Kavanaugh on the court.

00:13:16.020 By the way, thank goodness we got Gorsuch on the court.

00:13:18.560 Gorsuch has been one of the worst people on these issues.

00:13:22.040 All of these people told me they were originalists.

00:13:25.500 Amy Barrett, when she was up for the position, said she was an originalist.

00:13:30.120 Neil Gorsuch said he was an originalist.

00:13:34.300 Thankfully, Thomas and Alito held the line, but they dissented.

00:13:37.840 It didn't do very much.

00:13:40.040 The others were not.

00:13:41.440 So if originalism means that there is a constitutional right for boys to use the girls' room, I assume the founding fathers and the framers are rolling over in their graves at that suggestion.

00:13:55.500 But if that's what originalism means, I guess I'm not an originalist.

00:14:00.060 I always thought I was kind of an originalist, but I don't think I am.

00:14:05.540 If originalism means pretending that the Constitution guarantees a man's right to go do what he wants to do in the women's room. 1.00

00:14:14.960 That's obviously not true.

00:14:16.020 Why did the court punt on this case?

00:14:19.940 I don't think that Amy Barrett and Kavanaugh and Roberts is a lost cause and Gorsuch, I don't think that they punted necessarily because of their deeply principled position.

00:14:31.700 I suspect they punted because of their cowardice.

00:14:34.320 I suspect they punted because this is a very tricky issue and it's unpopular and so they just don't want to deal with it.

00:14:42.320 They don't want their hands on it.

00:14:43.620 And it actually has the further effect of now enshrining this as law without anyone passing a law for it.

00:14:51.620 This is how the liberal establishment holds power.

00:14:54.720 Sure, okay, when the liberal establishment wants to defend something that is very, very unpopular that you know that people are going to come out and vote against if it's put up to a vote, they just have the court do it for them.

00:15:08.280 Because the court is not accountable to the people and they'll give sort of protection.

00:15:13.120 Now the court will get good coverage in the media.

00:15:16.060 They'll have the institutions backing them up.

00:15:18.680 But this is what the liberal establishment does.

00:15:21.220 They rely on the court to do their dirty work.

00:15:23.520 They did the same with same-sex marriage. 0.60

00:15:26.520 The idea of redefining marriage was deeply, deeply unpopular.

00:15:30.220 When it was put on the ballot in California of all places, it was shot down.

00:15:35.060 And it was in particular unpopular among a core constituency of the Democratic Party, which would be black voters.

00:15:41.640 So because the liberal establishment, which wanted to redefine marriage because they had been pushing this through television shows like Will and Grace.

00:15:49.940 They had been pushing this through the curricula.

00:15:51.820 They had been pushing this through the courts, though it hadn't gone very far.

00:15:55.400 They had been trying to do it through the electoral means, but that didn't work.

00:15:57.780 So because it wasn't working, they just went in and had the romantic poet, Anthony Kennedy, on the Supreme Court redefine marriage.

00:16:05.320 They did this with abortion. 0.98

00:16:06.440 Abortion, some states were legalizing it.

00:16:09.280 Other states were pushing back against it.

00:16:11.740 Right now, there's no question about it.

00:16:13.600 If it were put up to a vote, if the Supreme Court had not invented the fictional constitutional right to abortion, there is no question that a huge number of states in this country would outlaw abortion.

00:16:23.260 Actually, a lot of states have a provision now in their law that if Roe v. Wade is overturned, abortion is automatically criminalized in the state.

00:16:31.580 So they did that.

00:16:32.780 The court just had to do it on behalf of the liberal establishment.

00:16:35.460 And the same thing is true of affirmative action, also known as anti-white racism and often anti-Asian racism.

00:16:42.760 Now, that policy is very unpopular, that people would vote against that.

00:16:48.460 I suspect people of all races would vote against that.

00:16:51.420 But certainly whites and Asians who are being now legally discriminated against would vote against that.

00:16:56.400 And so the court has to defend it.

00:16:58.000 They keep defending it.

00:16:58.880 And very often, like Sandra Day O'Connor, when she was on the court, they will even admit this is obviously unconstitutional.

00:17:04.880 This is obviously wrong.

00:17:06.340 But to rectify past wrongs, we're just going to have this policy for a little bit longer.

00:17:10.560 It's just a temporary policy.

00:17:11.900 And so they'll argue for that.

00:17:13.720 And then the temporary policy never goes away.

00:17:16.680 Very unpopular stuff.

00:17:18.220 Now, sometimes what the liberal establishment is pushing is so deeply unpopular that they have to reverse course.

00:17:26.960 And when they reverse course, they just blame Republicans for the policy in the first place.

00:17:31.340 Nowhere is this clearer than on defund the police.

00:17:34.100 The Democrats, leading elected Democrats, have been calling now for a year at least to defund the police.

00:17:41.000 And when squishier Democrats have tried to pull back from that a little bit, you'll have AOC and the others come out and say, no, no, defund the police means defund the police.

00:17:50.660 It means taking away their money and abolishing the police departments.

00:17:53.580 So this policy doesn't play very well in Peoria.

00:17:58.360 It turns out that when you've got crime spikes around the country, first of all, when left-wing terrorists burn your country down for a year, and then there are crime spikes afterwards, 50% up in shooting and murders in Chicago, for instance.

00:18:09.240 Then all of a sudden, the Democrats say, gosh, this isn't looking very good.

00:18:13.780 So Jen Psaki, White House spokesman, I kid you not, just blamed Republicans for defunding the police. 1.00

00:18:21.040 Well, the president did mention that the American Rescue Plan, the state and local funding, something that was supported by the president, a lot of Democrats who supported and voted for the bill, could help ensure local cops were kept on the beat in communities across the country.

00:18:36.280 As you know, didn't receive a single Republican vote.

00:18:38.740 That funding has been used to keep cops on the beat.

00:18:41.080 But at the time, that was so that these local police departments might have a pandemic-related budget shortfall, not we need to keep cops on the beat because there's a crime wave.

00:18:50.780 I think that any local department would argue that keeping cops on the beat to keep communities safe when they had to, because of budget shortfalls, fire police, is something that helps them address crime in their local communities.

00:19:03.420 For those in the local communities, the White House's argument was the American Rescue Plan is going to be $1,400 checks.

00:19:08.400 It's going to be vaccines, vaccinators, it's going to put us on the path to beating the virus, not...

00:19:15.240 It did those things as well.

00:19:17.000 It was a pretty good bill and piece of legislation.

00:19:19.380 It was really good.

00:19:20.600 And if you don't vote for this one particular funding bill where we just give a bunch of money from the federal government to these local governments, aren't you kind of defunding the police?

00:19:30.480 No, we're not.

00:19:33.340 You guys voted explicitly to defund the police, and we opposed you when you did that.

00:19:39.400 And now you're just pretending that if we don't give some more stimulus cheese to the local governments, that we're defunding the police.

00:19:46.720 No, the policies were made by these Democrats.

00:19:50.640 Now you're pretending any funding for state...

00:19:52.580 Well, it could have been used to defund the police.

00:19:54.420 Yeah, okay.

00:19:54.940 I don't think so.

00:19:55.580 They can't run away forever from the conclusions of their crazy policies.

00:20:02.600 My favorite example...

00:20:03.600 It's not my favorite.

00:20:04.200 It's actually a very sad example.

00:20:06.120 But it's the clearest one in a long time.

00:20:09.240 It's a British-born influencer.

00:20:12.960 He's a social media guy.

00:20:14.080 Who just went viral after completing his 18th plastic surgery to look like a member of the Korean pop band, BTS.

00:20:26.480 This man now, his name is Ali London.

00:20:29.940 He also uses plural pronouns.

00:20:32.200 That's like the 17th strangest thing about this story.

00:20:34.660 He now identifies as Korean.

00:20:40.520 And he shared his new self-identity journey on social media.

00:20:46.000 I identify as Korean.

00:20:47.920 That's just my culture.

00:20:48.940 That's my home country.

00:20:50.340 That's exactly how I look now.

00:20:53.180 And I also identify as Jimin.

00:20:55.020 That's my Korean name.

00:20:56.220 But not only that, I just...

00:20:58.180 I know it's a little bit confusing for some people.

00:21:00.320 Nobody's ever come out as Jimin or Korean.

00:21:02.200 But this is something that you guys know if you've followed my journey for the last eight years.

00:21:06.660 I've really struggled with identity issues.

00:21:09.520 He's really struggled with identity issues.

00:21:11.460 And now he's Korean.

00:21:13.020 Some people are saying he's just doing this for attention.

00:21:15.160 Well, I guess he does everything for attention because he's a social media influencer.

00:21:18.500 But he's clearly got something going on here in his head.

00:21:22.280 He's had 18 surgeries to do this.

00:21:24.640 And people are really upset on the left about this.

00:21:27.340 And people are really befuddled on the right about this.

00:21:29.680 But the fact is, this British dude identifying as Korean makes much more sense than transgenderism.

00:21:39.280 It is much more believable that a white guy can become a Korean guy than that any kind of guy can become any kind of woman. 0.59

00:21:49.180 Because race is much less important to identity than sex.

00:21:54.520 The fundamental distinction among people is sex.

00:22:01.180 The sexes are complementary.

00:22:03.360 They together form the fundamental political unit, the family.

00:22:07.660 They got different potty parts, do different things, and together they make babies.

00:22:12.400 The races have differences.

00:22:14.160 There's no question.

00:22:16.580 Much less distinct.

00:22:18.300 Much less important.

00:22:19.360 And the left is very upset about this because they've identified racism as the worst possible sin.

00:22:25.500 They've kind of redefined all sin as just racism.

00:22:28.220 And especially if a white person does anything to appropriate a culture of another, right?

00:22:34.020 If a white person enjoys the culture of other people, that's called appropriation.

00:22:39.760 If a white person doesn't care about the culture of other people, that's called erasure.

00:22:43.940 So the white guy can't do anything right.

00:22:46.420 Anything he does with regard to race or culture is considered wrong and evil and bigoted.

00:22:51.020 But this makes much more sense.

00:22:54.080 Now, of course, the guy is not really Korean.

00:22:57.440 And of course, the man who thinks he's a woman is not really a woman.

00:23:00.820 But if you accept the logic of transgenderism, you certainly must accept that this guy is Korean. 0.57

00:23:06.120 He's obviously got identity issues.

00:23:07.500 We've all got identity issues these days.

00:23:10.200 This is, I think, because of the deeply religious confusion of our society and the question of what human nature really is.

00:23:17.580 But that question of who are we is now being accelerated by the courts, by the establishment, which is buying into these delusions.

00:23:28.260 You know, there's one guy in the court who's standing firm.

00:23:32.200 That would be Clarence Thomas.

00:23:34.980 And there's a great, great movie about Clarence Thomas called Created Equal, you know.

00:23:38.800 Unfortunately, Amazon does not want you to hear the story of Clarence Thomas.

00:23:43.520 Created Equal was up there on Amazon.

00:23:45.020 And then Amazon just took it off during Black History Month, of all things.

00:23:49.380 So Daily Wire decided, you know, we think people should be able to see this movie.

00:23:53.080 So we've got it streaming right now at dailywire.com slash subscribe.

00:23:57.960 Head on over, get 20% off your new membership with code JUSTICE.

00:24:01.660 And while you're at it, you can go order my book, Speechless, Controlling Words, Controlling Lines, available everywhere right now.

00:24:07.140 You can get it at your local bookstore, at Barnes & Noble, at Amazon.

00:24:10.420 I think you can still get a signed first edition at Premier Collectibles, though they did sell out of the first run.

00:24:16.360 So if you order it now, I think you will still get it.

00:24:19.560 But you've got to order it now.

00:24:21.100 Also, you can get the Kindle edition if you want to read it right away.

00:24:24.960 Get the Audible.

00:24:25.580 Get all of them.

00:24:26.400 Head on over to go get Speechless today.

00:24:28.380 We'll be right back with a lot more.

00:24:29.360 The liberal regime, which does not operate like we thought it did, you know, it does not operate like they told us.

00:24:48.020 I am a bill up on Capitol Hill and like they taught us when they used to teach civics.

00:24:53.160 The regime operates a little bit differently.

00:24:55.520 The administrative government, the agencies that are unaccountable to anyone.

00:24:59.360 Control a huge portion of political power in this country in tandem with, of course, the other institutions.

00:25:05.880 The universities, big tech, woke corporations, the media, all sorts of things.

00:25:12.020 Well, now we've got a report from Tucker Carlson that he has definitive proof that the NSA, once known as no such agency, National Security Agency, is spying on him.

00:25:28.760 But it's not just political protesters the government is spying on.

00:25:31.780 Yesterday we heard from a whistleblower within the U.S. government who reached out to warn us that the NSA, the National Security Agency, is monitoring our electronic communications and is planning to leak them in an attempt to take this show off the air.

00:25:44.660 Now, that's a shocking claim and ordinarily we'd be skeptical of it is illegal for the NSA to spy on American citizens.

00:25:50.980 It's a crime. It's not a third world country. Things like that should not happen in America.

00:25:55.880 But unfortunately, they do happen. And in this case, they did happen.

00:25:59.320 The whistleblower, who is in a position to know, repeated back to us information about a story that we are working on that could have only come directly from my texts and emails.

00:26:11.580 There's no other possible source for that information, period.

00:26:15.320 The NSA captured that information without our knowledge and did it for political reasons.

00:26:20.760 The Biden administration is spying on us. We have confirmed that.

00:26:25.440 I have no reason not to believe Tucker here. A lot of people are skeptical of Tucker's claim.

00:26:33.780 Why would you be? First of all, he's a pretty straight shooter.

00:26:37.220 Guy is a straight shooter, especially when it comes to people on television.

00:26:41.040 He's one of the best, if not the best.

00:26:44.480 And is your claim that the NSA wouldn't do this sort of thing? They already do.

00:26:48.120 They're spying on everybody.

00:26:49.720 They are intercepting virtually all the data that are going around the internet in the United States.

00:26:57.000 And we know in many cases, the intelligence community has been weaponized against opponents of the dominant liberal regime.

00:27:05.120 This happened in 2016.

00:27:06.880 Do you remember the FBI was weaponized to spy on the Trump campaign and they never let up.

00:27:14.720 The intelligence community kept going after Donald Trump for the entirety of his presidency.

00:27:20.660 They tried to get him on this. They tried to get him on that.

00:27:22.540 They tried to get him on Russia. They tried to get him on Ukraine.

00:27:24.880 Russia and Ukraine are at war with one another, but somehow Trump was colluding with both.

00:27:28.920 They try to get him on anything and they'll use any tactic to do it.

00:27:33.180 We've had reports out during the Obama administration that the agencies were spying on other journalists,

00:27:40.860 other journalists at conservative outlets.

00:27:42.540 You know that the IRS was weaponized against conservatives during the Tea Party movement.

00:27:47.740 This happens all the time.

00:27:50.420 The conspiracy theory is that somehow this whistleblower got Tucker Carlson's text through some other means.

00:27:57.860 Of course, it's so obvious.

00:28:00.880 Unless Tucker is just completely fabricating the whole episode, which I don't think that he is,

00:28:06.540 then this should worry everyone.

00:28:08.700 And there's a kind of irony here because, do you remember, this is actually, I think,

00:28:13.200 emblematic of the broader shift in politics.

00:28:15.480 During the early 2000s, during the Bush years, Republicans were the defenders of the national security state.

00:28:22.900 Republicans were defenders of the intelligence community.

00:28:25.940 Gone back and forth over the years.

00:28:27.400 Who's defending the CIA?

00:28:28.540 Who's defending the FBI?

00:28:30.160 Is it Republicans?

00:28:31.020 Is it Democrats?

00:28:31.580 But now I think it is pretty clear.

00:28:35.640 It's obvious.

00:28:38.240 The Republicans, the conservatives, are treated as dissidents in the liberal regime.

00:28:44.960 They are.

00:28:45.820 If you go out and burn down a city on behalf of the left, you will be let off the hook.

00:28:53.080 In Manhattan and in the Bronx, the majority of BLM rioters and looters had their charges dismissed.

00:29:04.240 And then most of the rest of them had their charges pled down to offenses like trespassing,

00:29:09.340 which don't carry any jail time.

00:29:11.460 Meanwhile, if you put on a horn helmet and go dance around on Nancy Pelosi's desk and maybe take her lectern,

00:29:19.520 you will rot in prison for years.

00:29:21.580 You will be hunted down by the feds.

00:29:24.760 You will be dragged in front of very serious prosecutors, people who prosecute terrorism.

00:29:30.280 And you will rot in prison because the left burning down the country,

00:29:34.540 even though they killed many more people, even though they caused far more damage,

00:29:39.140 even though they threatened more government buildings and certainly way more private businesses,

00:29:44.020 they are ideologically aligned with the regime.

00:29:48.080 And the right-wingers are not.

00:29:50.100 And the people in the horn helmets or whatever and dancing on the desk are not.

00:29:54.220 And so there's going to be a different standard here.

00:29:55.980 So it's just very strange for conservatives to be defending the national security state.

00:30:02.860 Unless, as we've said for a long time, they're not really conservatives.

00:30:07.620 They're kind of court jesters in the kingdom of liberalism.

00:30:10.560 Their job is to give the appearance of opposition to the liberal establishment, but really ultimately to lose.

00:30:18.560 When push comes to shove, their job is to lose with dignity.

00:30:21.560 They don't have any dignity when they do it, but that's their job.

00:30:24.140 I think that's what we're seeing.

00:30:26.760 So much of the jockeying right now on the right, what is the right?

00:30:31.280 What is conservatism?

00:30:32.940 What is our view on immigration?

00:30:34.640 What is our view on trade?

00:30:35.760 What is our view on manufacturing?

00:30:37.460 What is our view on the country?

00:30:39.160 What is our view on anything, basically?

00:30:41.520 So much of that jockeying is between people who want to play along with the establishment and lose, but be, you know, basically taken care of, and people who want to push back and who want to win.

00:30:55.140 You know, I thought there was a little hope yesterday.

00:30:57.920 For about, I don't know, four or five hours, there was some hope yesterday that maybe some left-wingers are going to face some consequences from some of the dominant institutions.

00:31:09.920 Because YouTube banned an organization called Right Wing Watch.

00:31:15.900 Right Wing Watch is a leftist operative group that exists to get me fired and Ben fired and basically everybody, everybody on the right.

00:31:27.840 And it's kind of like media matters.

00:31:29.860 They go out, they watch a lot of conservative shows, then they post clips and they try to get us all fired.

00:31:34.480 So YouTube banned their channel.

00:31:36.500 And I thought, huh, that's pretty good.

00:31:38.680 That's pretty good stuff.

00:31:40.940 And it raised this other point, which is the thesis of my book, which is that some people on the left were criticizing the Republicans who were happy about this.

00:31:49.860 They said, well, hold on, you're for cancel culture when you're canceling your enemies and your opponents, but you're against cancel culture when they're canceling you.

00:32:00.180 Yes, that's right.

00:32:01.200 You got it.

00:32:01.880 You nailed it.

00:32:03.040 I'm glad you finally heard me.

00:32:04.600 You must have read my book.

00:32:05.580 Yes, I strongly, strongly support canceling certain people and ideas.

00:32:12.680 I, like William F. Buckley Jr., like virtually every conservative in the country until about five minutes ago, strongly support standards and taboos and ostracizing certain people and ideas.

00:32:27.980 Because I do think we should, by definition, a society has to agree on some things.

00:32:33.980 I was, that's, Bill Buckley launched the conservative movement on that idea with, with God and Man at Yale.

00:32:38.640 And after that, with a book defending Joe McCarthy, for goodness sakes.

00:32:41.180 Yes, that's a good thing.

00:32:44.560 But I knew, I knew, I looked at that, I said, oh, they banned right-wing watch.

00:32:48.920 It's not going to last.

00:32:50.440 It's just not going to last.

00:32:51.740 It must have been an accident.

00:32:52.920 And it was.

00:32:53.960 The reason they banned right-wing watch is because right-wing watch posts videos of conservatives.

00:32:59.580 So, YouTube has already reinstated their channel.

00:33:03.440 And YouTube basically said, oh, I'm so sorry.

00:33:05.340 Our algorithm caught a bunch of right-wingers doing things.

00:33:08.700 So, we tried to ban all of them.

00:33:10.760 But we did, so we didn't know.

00:33:12.080 If we had known that you were posting them ironically to try to get those people fired,

00:33:15.960 obviously we would have, we would have left the channel up.

00:33:18.920 If only, now, you know, there are plenty of radical, radical leftists on YouTube

00:33:23.160 who say many heinous, vile, terrible things.

00:33:27.260 And they, generally speaking, don't have their channels taken down.

00:33:30.920 But if a conservative goes on and says anything from the vile and the heinous and the kooky

00:33:35.440 to just perfectly ordinary mainstream things, they will very often face consequences.

00:33:43.240 And speaking of the viral videos of the libs, there's a video.

00:33:48.800 I wish I didn't have to play this.

00:33:53.020 This video was going around TikTok.

00:33:56.120 And I thought, in a month that is already full of a lot of really weird videos

00:34:00.480 where you've got frogs talking to men who are identifying as women

00:34:05.340 and you've got the NFL identifying as gay and transgender

00:34:09.020 and you've got British people identifying as Koreans.

00:34:12.560 I thought, I must have seen it all, right?

00:34:14.520 But I hadn't because some lib guy decided to do a little dance

00:34:20.840 and do a little song number about how he's waxed and vaxxed but still wearing a mask.

00:34:26.900 I'm vaxxed, vaxxed, wearing slacks

00:34:31.000 Going on TikTok, dropping fax

00:34:33.360 The CDC says, hey, you can relax

00:34:35.620 But when I go, I'll still rock the mask

00:34:38.080 Cause I don't want to be mistaken for a trap supporter

00:34:42.440 That second dose hit that goo

00:34:46.220 With all the aches and a fever

00:34:50.840 Of a hundred and two

00:34:52.940 But I would do it all over again

00:34:56.500 Just to chill with my friends

00:34:59.260 It goes on.

00:35:02.060 You know, you've got to give the guy credit.

00:35:03.700 It's actually kind of a catchy tune compared to a lot of these.

00:35:06.180 But I actually, as cringe-inducing as the video is,

00:35:10.540 I appreciate the honesty.

00:35:12.300 Because what this guy's admitting

00:35:13.460 Is that the mask is not

00:35:15.460 It's what I've been saying from the very beginning

00:35:17.100 The mask is not primarily a scientific or medical tool

00:35:21.320 It is primarily a political symbol

00:35:23.540 He's saying he's waxed, vaxxed, wearing slacks

00:35:27.360 And when he goes outside, he still wears a mask

00:35:30.280 Because he doesn't want to be confused with a Trump supporter

00:35:32.800 He's saying the CDC tells me that I don't need the mask

00:35:36.340 The mask doesn't do anything

00:35:37.400 But I'm not wearing the mask because it does anything

00:35:39.660 I suspect a great many people were not wearing the mask

00:35:42.780 Because it actually did anything

00:35:43.900 They're wearing the mask because it's a political symbol

00:35:47.180 To show you that you are a good person

00:35:48.740 You know, recently

00:35:50.420 Some stores have not been able to keep it up

00:35:53.120 People are just going to take the masks off

00:35:54.400 So they put up signs

00:35:55.260 They say that if you are vaccinated

00:35:57.680 Then you do not need to wear a mask

00:35:59.940 So when you go into stores now

00:36:01.280 You'll see some people are wearing masks

00:36:02.780 Some people are not

00:36:03.500 And the irony, of course, is that every single person

00:36:06.840 Who is not wearing a mask is unvaccinated

00:36:10.000 And every single person, without much exaggeration

00:36:13.840 Every single person who is wearing a mask is vaccinated

00:36:16.980 I've overheard people saying this

00:36:20.600 I know many people are going to the stores

00:36:22.280 This is a political distinction

00:36:26.140 Because the neurotics

00:36:28.840 Who really were afraid of the Wu flu

00:36:31.380 From the very beginning

00:36:32.340 Are, of course, going to continue wearing masks

00:36:35.160 Either because of their fear of the virus itself

00:36:38.060 Their completely irrational fear

00:36:39.720 Or their phobia, you might say

00:36:41.880 To use a popular word

00:36:42.860 Or because they don't want to be associated

00:36:46.800 With those terrible Trump supporters

00:36:48.100 Who weren't wearing masks from the very beginning

00:36:50.000 So, okay, I'm glad we all agree

00:36:52.120 That it's primarily a symbol

00:36:54.480 Liberalism is very, very effective

00:36:58.900 The liberal establishment is very, very effective

00:37:01.900 The one thing, though, is that it's not stable

00:37:04.620 The liberalism that we're seeing around us

00:37:08.520 Is of the pull-down-the-statues variety

00:37:10.980 So the revolution will always come for its own

00:37:14.560 And Whoopi Goldberg just pointed this out

00:37:16.320 I'm not saying she actually just pointed this out

00:37:18.680 I'm saying there's a video going around

00:37:20.120 It sort of surfaced

00:37:21.280 Of Whoopi Goldberg

00:37:22.720 Discussing this problem of young liberals

00:37:26.280 Who are just not happy with Biden

00:37:28.180 They're saying he's not going far enough

00:37:29.600 And Whoopi says, hey, wait a second

00:37:31.280 Come on, we were the revolutionaries in our day

00:37:33.780 How come you're coming after us now?

00:37:35.880 We did our part

00:37:36.620 Why are you so ungrateful?

00:37:38.880 Look at what's happening with the Democrats

00:37:40.520 You have two existing bodies

00:37:42.420 You got the new woke party

00:37:45.500 That movement

00:37:46.680 And then you got the establishment

00:37:47.980 And they're eating each other alive

00:37:50.200 That, you know what?

00:37:51.700 That's the truth

00:37:52.420 That is not so

00:37:53.660 It is not so

00:37:54.780 Stop listening to the media

00:37:56.540 Who is leading you in a direction

00:37:58.180 That is bullsh** 0.88

00:37:59.100 That's what you're hearing

00:37:59.980 The way they talk about Joe Biden

00:38:01.880 They're like, I cannot f***ing stand

00:38:03.780 But here's the thing that you're missing

00:38:14.600 We've been doing all that work

00:38:16.160 That all these five-year-olds say

00:38:17.720 Well, y'all haven't been doing that

00:38:19.220 Bullsh** 0.99

00:38:19.880 What do you think?

00:38:20.900 How do you think apartheid changed?

00:38:22.700 We did that

00:38:23.600 That's what Joe Biden did

00:38:25.440 Nobody does everything

00:38:27.480 The way you want him to do it

00:38:29.160 But do not put down the people

00:38:33.300 Whose shoulders you're standing on

00:38:35.200 You are standing on our shoulders

00:38:37.060 And we are holding the line

00:38:38.780 And for people to say

00:38:39.960 You're an uninspiring

00:38:40.960 F*** you

00:38:41.680 Uninspiring

00:38:42.760 What are you inspiring?

00:38:45.100 Actually, a very conservative point

00:38:47.640 So Whoopi Goldberg says

00:38:51.600 She's yelling at some young lib 1.00

00:38:53.360 And she says

00:38:54.600 How dare you say

00:38:55.840 That we aren't going fast enough

00:38:57.560 Or far enough

00:38:58.120 How dare you?

00:38:59.160 You're standing on the shoulders

00:39:00.640 Of people who are doing

00:39:01.840 A lot of great work

00:39:02.660 How do you think apartheid ended?

00:39:04.340 We did that

00:39:04.980 So Whoopi Goldberg identifies

00:39:06.980 As ending apartheid

00:39:08.320 Okay

00:39:09.340 A British guy identifies as a Korean

00:39:11.540 Men identify as women 0.98

00:39:12.900 And Whoopi Goldberg identifies

00:39:14.520 As ending apartheid

00:39:16.180 Fine

00:39:16.820 Whatever

00:39:17.560 The point she's making

00:39:19.280 Is a very conservative one

00:39:20.420 It's one that I make quite a lot

00:39:21.920 When I defend

00:39:23.600 Christopher Columbus

00:39:24.860 For example

00:39:25.500 Or George Washington

00:39:26.740 Against ridiculous attacks

00:39:28.600 I say

00:39:29.460 How dare you people

00:39:30.260 You're standing on the shoulders

00:39:31.200 Of giants

00:39:31.780 These great men

00:39:32.540 Who gave you your country

00:39:34.120 And you think that you're flying

00:39:36.340 You spit on them

00:39:37.580 And that is what the left is doing

00:39:40.420 And Whoopi says

00:39:41.000 How dare you do that to us?

00:39:42.580 Well the problem of course is

00:39:44.040 Conservatives

00:39:46.260 You would hope

00:39:47.260 Would not do that sort of thing

00:39:48.940 Conservatives have a reverence

00:39:50.220 For the past

00:39:50.920 They have gratitude

00:39:51.980 They have humility

00:39:53.040 They feel a sense of obligation

00:39:54.760 And they feel

00:39:55.600 Quite at home

00:39:56.780 In the democracy of the dead

00:39:58.200 The idea that

00:39:58.880 The past has something to say

00:40:00.720 People who have gone before us

00:40:02.560 Actually have something

00:40:03.540 To contribute

00:40:04.260 To the present day

00:40:05.520 And we have something

00:40:07.980 That we need to bequeath on

00:40:09.420 To future generations

00:40:10.760 And they ought to be grateful to us

00:40:12.380 Right

00:40:13.300 We have this sense

00:40:13.960 Of continuity

00:40:15.040 But the left by definition

00:40:16.440 Doesn't have that

00:40:17.120 The left is always trying

00:40:18.800 To revolutionize

00:40:19.580 It's never good enough

00:40:20.500 Because we're never really

00:40:21.520 Living in utopia

00:40:22.320 So in order to

00:40:23.980 Push forward the revolution

00:40:25.620 The past has always 0.96

00:40:26.440 Got to be evil

00:40:27.100 And oppressive

00:40:27.780 And enslaving 0.80

00:40:28.660 The present always

00:40:30.240 Has to be a crisis

00:40:31.060 And the future

00:40:31.980 Always has to be utopia

00:40:33.160 And now

00:40:34.380 Those chickens

00:40:35.560 Are coming home

00:40:36.180 To roost Whoopi

00:40:36.980 That's a problem

00:40:38.420 It's the

00:40:38.780 One glimmer of hope

00:40:40.900 That I do have

00:40:41.960 That the liberal regime

00:40:43.820 No matter how much

00:40:45.080 It's spying on Tucker

00:40:46.220 Or going after Trump

00:40:47.300 Or going after conservatives

00:40:48.760 The one thing

00:40:50.480 That does give me hope here

00:40:51.580 Is it is unstable

00:40:52.600 It's just intrinsically unstable

00:40:55.080 Unlike conservatism

00:40:57.480 And so

00:40:58.140 There are going to be

00:40:59.120 Opportunities every now and again

00:41:00.480 To go in there

00:41:01.200 And give a little sucker punch 0.76

00:41:02.520 To the system

00:41:03.160 And try to

00:41:04.460 Shape it a little bit more

00:41:05.600 In the direction

00:41:06.080 That you would like

00:41:07.040 You're seeing this now

00:41:08.460 With Trump

00:41:10.180 From the moment

00:41:11.460 He left office

00:41:12.240 The left

00:41:13.060 Has been trying to

00:41:14.360 Throw this guy in prison

00:41:15.460 Lock him up

00:41:16.360 Lock him up

00:41:16.920 That sort of thing

00:41:17.580 And they took it

00:41:19.480 Very serious

00:41:20.140 I mean there was never

00:41:20.820 Really a strong move

00:41:21.920 To throw Hillary in prison 1.00

00:41:23.040 Trump had that good line

00:41:24.020 At the debate

00:41:24.560 Where she said

00:41:25.380 I don't want to live

00:41:25.920 In an America 0.78

00:41:26.400 Where Trump is president

00:41:27.300 He said yeah

00:41:27.800 Because you'd be in jail

00:41:28.640 And everyone applauded

00:41:29.860 And hooped and hollered 0.85

00:41:30.660 But no one ever

00:41:31.880 Took it seriously

00:41:32.600 There was never

00:41:33.180 Any actual movement

00:41:34.340 To throw the Clintons 1.00

00:41:35.960 In prison

00:41:36.440 Namely

00:41:37.860 Because they know

00:41:38.280 Their way around the place

00:41:39.060 Pretty well

00:41:39.460 You know

00:41:39.640 They go in and out

00:41:40.300 Jeffrey's in there

00:41:41.120 They go in

00:41:41.720 Take care of him

00:41:42.500 They

00:41:42.840 John McAfee

00:41:43.920 No I'm kidding

00:41:44.740 I'm kidding

00:41:46.080 Am I kidding

00:41:46.580 I'm kidding

00:41:47.020 Hillary please

00:41:47.740 Don't come

00:41:48.680 We're family

00:41:49.120 Don't come after me

00:41:49.860 So there was never

00:41:51.660 Really a strong movement

00:41:52.480 To throw Hillary in prison 1.00

00:41:53.860 There was a serious movement

00:41:55.780 To throw Trump in prison

00:41:57.120 I mean there really

00:41:58.060 The southern district

00:41:59.240 Of New York

00:41:59.980 Various other places

00:42:02.140 Were looking into

00:42:03.080 Charging Trump

00:42:03.980 With crimes

00:42:04.600 And the Manhattan DA

00:42:05.780 Cy Vance

00:42:06.880 Just came out

00:42:07.620 And said he does not

00:42:09.200 Currently plan to charge

00:42:10.540 The Trump organization

00:42:11.880 With crimes

00:42:13.120 Related to allegations

00:42:14.380 Of hush money payments

00:42:15.720 And real estate value

00:42:16.960 Manipulations

00:42:17.640 According to a personal

00:42:18.900 Lawyer

00:42:19.320 For Donald Trump

00:42:20.680 Now

00:42:22.100 Just to begin

00:42:23.240 I don't think

00:42:24.660 We should throw

00:42:25.300 Ex-presidents in prison

00:42:26.560 Even if they commit crimes

00:42:27.840 By the way

00:42:28.300 I still don't think

00:42:29.280 We should throw them

00:42:29.800 In prison

00:42:30.200 Absent very

00:42:32.960 Very specific circumstances

00:42:34.160 I think that's

00:42:34.840 Banana Republic

00:42:35.480 Kind of stuff

00:42:36.120 Increasingly

00:42:36.980 We're living

00:42:37.360 In a banana republic

00:42:38.200 So that's too bad

00:42:39.360 We're living

00:42:40.120 In a banana republic

00:42:41.200 Where the federal agencies

00:42:42.520 Spy on journalists

00:42:43.680 And where

00:42:44.580 We can't even agree

00:42:45.520 That men are not women 1.00

00:42:46.640 And Brits are not Koreans 0.99

00:42:47.620 But I'd like to

00:42:49.480 Stave that off

00:42:50.460 As far as we possibly can

00:42:51.860 Want to maintain

00:42:53.580 A somewhat

00:42:54.280 Civilized

00:42:55.480 System of politics

00:42:57.020 Trump blasted

00:42:58.600 The Manhattan DA

00:42:59.360 He said

00:43:00.000 Quote

00:43:00.240 Radical left

00:43:01.300 New York City

00:43:01.920 And state prosecutors

00:43:02.960 Who have let murderers

00:43:04.320 Rapists

00:43:04.800 Drug dealers

00:43:05.360 And all other forms

00:43:06.160 Of crime

00:43:06.500 Skyrocket to record levels

00:43:08.020 And who have just

00:43:08.840 Announced that they

00:43:09.460 Will be releasing

00:43:10.060 Hundreds of people

00:43:10.820 Involved in violent crime

00:43:11.820 Back onto the streets

00:43:12.940 Without retribution

00:43:14.240 Of any kind

00:43:14.860 Are rude

00:43:15.760 Nasty

00:43:16.440 And totally biased

00:43:17.720 In the way

00:43:18.220 They're treating

00:43:18.720 Lawyers

00:43:19.040 Representatives

00:43:19.520 Some of the

00:43:20.140 Wonderful long-term

00:43:20.780 Employees and people

00:43:21.520 Within the Trump

00:43:22.080 Organization

00:43:22.600 After hundreds of

00:43:23.820 Subpoenas

00:43:24.160 Over three million

00:43:24.880 Pages of documents

00:43:25.760 Four years of searching

00:43:26.640 Dozens and dozens

00:43:27.360 Of interviews

00:43:27.840 And millions of dollars

00:43:29.020 Of taxpayer funds

00:43:29.760 Wasted

00:43:30.120 They continue to be

00:43:31.380 In search of a crime

00:43:32.540 And will do anything

00:43:33.480 To frighten people

00:43:34.120 Into making up

00:43:34.720 The stories or lies

00:43:35.460 That they want

00:43:36.060 They've been totally

00:43:37.400 Unable to get it

00:43:38.260 In an unprecedented move

00:43:39.560 They retained an

00:43:40.040 Outside never-Trumper 0.72

00:43:40.820 Lawyer from a

00:43:41.460 Trump-hating law firm

00:43:42.360 To work on the case

00:43:43.180 It's a continuation

00:43:44.140 Of the greatest

00:43:44.740 Witch hunt of all time

00:43:45.620 This is true

00:43:46.320 No matter what you

00:43:47.280 Think of Trump

00:43:47.940 There was a witch hunt 0.85

00:43:49.080 They really did go

00:43:49.860 After him

00:43:50.320 And they continue

00:43:50.840 To go after him

00:43:51.500 And they continue

00:43:52.160 To go after his

00:43:52.760 Supporters

00:43:53.140 And they continue

00:43:53.960 To go after people

00:43:54.640 In the media

00:43:55.160 Who in any way

00:43:57.060 Support the sort of

00:43:58.380 Thing that he supports

00:43:59.400 This is really

00:44:00.680 Really bad stuff

00:44:01.680 They say that you

00:44:02.540 Can indict a ham

00:44:03.300 Sandwich

00:44:03.780 Right

00:44:03.980 And this is

00:44:04.420 Especially true

00:44:05.140 When there are

00:44:05.840 Many many many

00:44:06.660 Complicated regulations

00:44:07.920 And laws that one

00:44:08.920 Could be violating

00:44:09.700 At any given time

00:44:10.600 And so

00:44:11.400 This is one of the

00:44:12.760 Arguments for

00:44:13.580 Limiting the scope

00:44:15.320 Of the government

00:44:15.920 So that they don't

00:44:17.380 Have ways to

00:44:18.740 Entrap people 0.99

00:44:20.300 For people to

00:44:21.500 Commit crimes

00:44:22.040 Sometimes even

00:44:22.660 Accidentally

00:44:23.220 And this is why

00:44:24.380 There needs to be

00:44:24.920 Even enforcement

00:44:25.680 But right now

00:44:26.240 There's not even

00:44:26.920 Enforcement

00:44:27.320 If you loot

00:44:28.440 On behalf of BLM

00:44:29.480 You get off the hook

00:44:30.240 And if you steal

00:44:30.840 Nancy Pelosi's

00:44:31.620 Lecture

00:44:31.920 And you go to

00:44:32.320 Prison for decades

00:44:33.260 Absolutely outrageous

00:44:36.000 Speaking of bogus

00:44:37.040 Crimes

00:44:37.460 Right now

00:44:38.140 Justin Trudeau

00:44:39.380 The Prime Minister

00:44:40.400 Of Canada

00:44:40.960 Looks a lot like

00:44:42.900 Fidel Castro

00:44:43.440 It's kind of weird

00:44:43.980 Justin Trudeau

00:44:45.440 Demanded that

00:44:47.340 Pope Francis

00:44:48.000 Fly to Canada

00:44:49.160 To apologize

00:44:50.680 On Canadian soil

00:44:52.060 Because

00:44:53.700 They discovered

00:44:55.340 Some graves

00:44:56.860 At an old

00:44:58.120 Catholic children's

00:44:59.180 School

00:44:59.440 And they were

00:45:00.160 Graves of

00:45:01.180 Native

00:45:02.780 Of indigenous 0.98

00:45:03.860 Canadians

00:45:04.560 Now I don't

00:45:07.720 The story is so

00:45:09.000 Convoluted

00:45:09.720 It's so strange

00:45:10.460 There was a school

00:45:11.220 For Indian children

00:45:12.860 And the

00:45:14.200 There were some

00:45:15.160 Graves and some of

00:45:15.860 Them were not marked

00:45:16.540 But they sort of

00:45:17.040 Had been marked

00:45:17.600 For a while

00:45:18.020 But then I guess

00:45:18.580 They lost some

00:45:19.040 Of the markers

00:45:19.520 And anyway

00:45:20.600 Justin Trudeau

00:45:22.320 Is demanding

00:45:22.760 That the Pope

00:45:23.240 Apologize

00:45:24.040 This by the way

00:45:26.200 As Catholic churches

00:45:27.240 Are being burned

00:45:28.340 To the ground

00:45:28.920 Two Catholic churches

00:45:30.460 Two more Catholic churches

00:45:31.700 On indigenous land

00:45:32.800 In British Columbia's interior

00:45:34.320 Burned to the ground

00:45:35.260 On early Saturday mornings

00:45:36.380 There's this big

00:45:37.060 Struggle against

00:45:38.060 The Catholic church

00:45:38.680 In Canada

00:45:39.120 Huge suppression

00:45:40.480 Of Christians 0.85

00:45:41.620 In Canada

00:45:42.260 I mean we've

00:45:43.120 Played some of the

00:45:44.060 Videos on this show

00:45:45.100 A real fear here

00:45:46.980 That Christians 1.00

00:45:47.440 Are going to have to

00:45:47.900 Go underground

00:45:48.540 In Canada

00:45:49.100 Like it was

00:45:49.480 Communist China

00:45:50.240 Or something

00:45:50.700 The Pope

00:45:51.440 Not that I'm

00:45:51.940 Telling the Pope

00:45:52.380 What to do

00:45:52.880 Not that he's

00:45:53.340 Asked my opinion

00:45:53.900 But he absolutely

00:45:55.140 Should not apologize

00:45:55.980 This is not about

00:45:56.780 A serious apology

00:45:58.320 This is not about

00:45:59.160 Grace

00:45:59.620 This is not about

00:46:00.480 This is about

00:46:01.420 A huge political attack

00:46:02.980 On the church

00:46:04.200 Which is what I think

00:46:04.920 All of this

00:46:05.480 Ultimately comes down to

00:46:06.720 I think all of these

00:46:08.080 Moves that we are seeing

00:46:09.100 In the culture

00:46:10.220 In our schools

00:46:11.440 In our politics

00:46:12.520 In our

00:46:12.900 Ultimately

00:46:13.820 Because all human

00:46:14.880 Conflict is theological

00:46:15.920 It is an attack

00:46:17.360 On truth

00:46:18.400 And it's not just

00:46:19.020 Political truth

00:46:19.680 Or cultural truth

00:46:20.260 It's all the way down

00:46:21.260 To religious truth

00:46:22.420 Which is why the church

00:46:23.320 Always seems to bear

00:46:24.300 The brunt of this

00:46:24.940 From the French revolution

00:46:26.040 Up until the present

00:46:27.980 Everything

00:46:29.620 All aiming

00:46:30.640 At that

00:46:31.640 So what

00:46:32.040 Are we going to

00:46:32.440 Stand for anything

00:46:33.340 Or are we just

00:46:34.660 Going to go along

00:46:35.320 With it

00:46:35.640 I think those

00:46:36.180 Are the

00:46:36.400 I think the options

00:46:37.040 Are really that stark

00:46:37.780 Stand for something

00:46:39.000 Stand for objective truth

00:46:40.260 Or

00:46:41.020 Brits

00:46:42.320 Brits are Koreans 1.00

00:46:43.400 And football's gay 0.96

00:46:44.480 And Kermit's a drag queen 1.00

00:46:45.640 And

00:46:46.720 Every one of us

00:46:49.940 Is up to the whims

00:46:53.060 Or Donald Trump
