As America reels from the worst drug epidemic in our nation s history, President Joe Biden has unveiled a plan to stop the carnage. And the plan is to give free crack pipes to drug addicts. This public health strategy may seem counterintuitive, but the Biden administration insists that the federally subsidized crack pipes will reduce harm and advance racial equity.
00:21:50.180When you use the phrase Jesus was, that's usually a red flag that the person who is speaking does not know very much about Jesus or Christianity.
00:22:58.900And now, because the left is attacking Christianity, trying to kick it out of our society and out of the public square, this is what you're getting.
00:23:14.740Well, if not, you need an alternative kind of policy.
00:23:18.720I think we had a good one, but the left wants to get rid of it.
00:23:22.440You know, when you want to hear all sorts of interesting conversations, I would strongly recommend you check out the Jordan Harbinger Show.
00:23:29.420It's about time you checked out the Jordan Harbinger Show, a top shelf podcast named Best of Apple in 2018.
00:23:37.240Jordan dives into the minds of fascinating people, from athletes to CEOs to government officials and to mobsters and FBI agents.
00:23:45.160Harbinger has an undeniable talent for getting his guests to share never-been-heard-before stories and thought-provoking insights.
00:23:52.640Without fail, he pulls out tactical bits of wisdom in each episode, all with the noble cause to make you a more informed, critical thinker to better operate in today's world.
00:24:03.140He's got this strangely relatable weekly segment, Feedback Friday, where Jordan covers advice on everything from psycho family situations to relationships to networking.
00:24:12.240He gives great advice. I always really, really enjoy the show.
00:24:16.240You cannot go wrong with adding the Jordan Harbinger Show to your rotation.
00:24:19.920Super interesting, never a dull show. Search for the Jordan Harbinger Show.
00:24:22.860That's H-A-R-B as in boy, I-N as in Nancy, G-E-R as in really.
00:24:27.600Go check it out on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, and I think you'll enjoy it.
00:24:33.540Also, this is very exciting. You can join me, Ben Shapiro, Jeremy Boring, Matt Walsh, and Andrew Klavan, tomorrow night, 7.30 Eastern, 6.30 Central, at Daily Wire's YouTube channel.
00:24:48.320The premiere of Shut In starts at 9 p.m. Eastern on the same channel. So make sure to tune in before then. Check out this trailer.
00:24:55.540Lainey, where have you been? Jessica. I can smell the weakness from you.
00:27:21.620What is being reported now by the College Fix, this black student has been charged with three counts of disorderly conduct for filing a false police report.
00:32:09.280You can call it racist, sure, but it's no more racist than any of the other racial identitarian groups, certainly no more racist than Black Lives Matter, certainly no more racist than any of these other racial groups on the left.
00:32:26.560And by the way, it has the advantage over, say, BLM or Antifa of not having ever burned the country down, to my knowledge.
00:32:33.600To my knowledge, they don't go out and commit lots of crimes or anything or arson or murder.
00:32:38.020They go, they have their conference, they talk about race.
00:32:42.440And that is enough to have you completely ostracized from the public square.
00:32:46.480But if you do the same thing on the left, with the same kind of racial identity, or really, frankly, even more so, you're applauded.
00:32:56.200I do not think that racial identity is the best way to view politics.
00:33:01.560I think it's kind of a creation of modernism, of modernity, this idea that you view things primarily through race.
00:33:08.820I think it's probably a much wiser idea to view politics through religion, and specifically through Christianity, the religion that built our entire civilization.
00:33:17.780And when our civilization was healthy and thriving, it was a Christian civilization.
00:33:21.740And Christianity tamps down racism, uniquely tamps down racism, because all are one in Christ Jesus.
00:33:31.320If you lose that, though, if you lose that, if you say, no, we're not a Christian civilization anymore, we don't even believe in God anymore, we just believe in stuff.
00:33:40.880And on the left, what that means is we're just bags of chemicals, and we exist to derive pleasure and kind of screw around with whoever we want.
00:33:47.780And on the right, you just say, and there are plenty of people on the right who say, look, we can't know anything about God.
00:33:53.620We can't know anything about even morality or ethics.
00:33:56.300All we can know is that we're material beings, and we need to increase our economic output and consumption.
00:34:03.720We're just going to order society toward being able to buy more stuff.
00:34:08.460They're both kind of the same idea on the left and the right.
00:34:12.160It's just, yeah, we're just kind of going to order society around materialism.
00:34:15.440Well, this is what you're going to get, okay?
00:34:19.540If you just make everything about matter, then this is what you're going to get.
00:34:26.160Or, by the way, you're going to get the complete opposite problem.
00:34:28.600You're going to get the transgenderism problem, which is you're going to say matter doesn't matter at all, and we're just purely spirits.
00:34:35.640And we can mutilate our bodies if we're men and pretend that we're women.
00:34:39.900Or, better yet, we can just plug our brain stems into the matrix, and we're going to all live in virtual reality where our bodies and matter has no meaning whatsoever.
00:34:48.660The traditional idea of civilization that we're body and soul inextricably linked here in reality, that's gone.
00:34:53.780Nobody is allowed to believe that anymore.
00:34:55.340Only those backward-minded Christians and Jews and Muslims, I guess, you know, only those backward-minded religious people believe that.
00:35:04.120But we smart moderns, we believe either one of these contradictory kooky things.
00:35:10.220You're seeing this right now with the development of the metaverse.
00:35:13.020So, Facebook, which has changed its name.
00:35:16.560Now, it's called Meta, and they have the metaverse, and we're all going to live in this virtual reality, and we're all just going to be little cartoon characters in a kind of video game world while we put our goggles on and sit alone in our little pods in our apartments.
00:35:31.920But we're going to live in this really fun, silly virtual world with a big screen.
00:35:36.940Well, they're noticing there are some moral problems here as well.
00:35:39.640Actually, Meta just put sexual harassment guidelines in place in virtual reality.
00:35:47.520Today we're announcing personal boundary for Horizon Worlds and Horizon Venues.
00:35:54.080Personal boundary prevents avatars from coming within a set distance of each other, creating more personal space for people, and making it easier to avoid unwanted interactions.
00:36:03.260I called this, you know how much I hate to say I told you so.
00:36:05.920I totally called this when there was a video of what this virtual reality world looked like.
00:36:10.540The creepiest thing about the video was that no one had any legs.
00:36:20.420Why isn't there anything below the navel?
00:36:21.960And I said, it's to prevent sexual harassment.
00:36:23.800They're going to actually de-sex all the people, which we're already starting to do in our regular society, and we've been doing for 50 years, through the sexual revolution, through second wave feminism, through the LGBT LMNOP movement now saying that men can be women and women can be men.
00:36:41.020We've been trying to take sex away from human nature, and now you're just seeing that represented in virtual reality.
00:36:46.360Why? Because you know what's going to happen.
00:36:49.440People put on those goggles, and they say the moral universe doesn't matter, and they're all going to get a little grab-happy with the avatars, and that's exactly what happened.
00:36:56.040So now meta is adding this boundary, so you cannot go up and pinch your friend in the metaverse.
00:37:08.480I think it is good to have boundaries.
00:37:10.160The worst thing that could happen with virtual reality is you put on the goggles and you say, now I'm living in a world where there are no rules, and it's not real.
00:37:27.640So I'm just going to go and indulge whatever sick fantasies I have, whether that's killing a bunch of people, whether that's doing lots of creepy sex stuff, whatever that is.
00:37:37.780I'm going to indulge all of my delusions, because it's just pretend world.
00:37:41.460It's like a lucid dream, but it's not going to have real effects.
00:38:06.120If we're all going to live in this metaverse hellscape, then I at least think there ought to be some good rules conducive to public morals and virtue.
00:38:14.320Speaking of creepy sex stuff and manifestations of evil, there's a video of a woman who was arrested down on our southern border for human smuggling.
00:38:27.980There was a study came out from the Huffington Post, Fusion Amnesty International, some years ago that said that 60 to 80 percent of women and young girls who are smuggled across the southern border are sexually assaulted on the journey.
00:38:40.540A lot of them are put into sexual servitude, indentured servitude, prostitution.
00:38:44.740And so one of these criminals, one of these human smugglers was arrested.
00:38:48.780Take a, take a listen to her reaction to the authorities.
00:41:04.700I wish it were Dr. Fauci, though we've got some great updates there.
00:41:07.840You know, I have the Michael Knowles Public Health Protection Pledge to, for all federal candidates to say they will investigate Dr. Fauci and zero out his salary.
00:41:16.140If they can't fire him, they can at least take away his salary.
00:41:18.740We've got dozens and dozens of candidates who have signed this.
00:41:22.280We've got some interesting, pretty big news on that coming down the pike, so stay tuned.
00:41:26.460No, but unfortunately it was not Fauci who got fired.
00:41:39.760He, he said, quote, I have sought to push myself and my colleagues to reach our shared goals, including at times challenging and criticizing.
00:41:48.220But it is clear that things I said and the way I said them cross the line at times into being disrespectful and demeaning to both men and women.
00:42:16.320I, but okay, but I, but I take responsibility and he's gone.
00:42:20.200And this after days and days of criticism, because Joe Biden said, I'm never going to tolerate anyone being a bully on my staff, being abusive or disrespectful.
00:42:30.240We're not going to tolerate that here.
00:42:31.700And then he had been tolerating it from this top science advisor.
00:42:35.180So then he gave the top science advisor the boot.
00:42:39.840This top science advisor was not the biggest bully in the Biden White House.
00:42:44.880The biggest bully in the Biden White House is Joe Biden.
00:42:48.580Joe Biden gave a speech a couple of weeks ago in which he said that half the country were akin to Nazis, to Bull Connor, to vile, evil, terrible, bigoted, unjust people.
00:43:06.860Joe Biden just told outright lies about people.
00:43:09.480Joe Biden, who said that Mitt Romney, whose most ambitious campaign pledge was to cut taxes a little bit.
00:43:14.820Mitt Romney wanted to put black people back in chains.
00:43:17.720Joe Biden, who took a 17-year-old kid who was being chased down by Antifa lunatics, by felons and pedos, and then in self-defense shot them.
00:43:27.600Joe Biden started his presidential campaign by calling that kid a white supremacist with no evidence whatsoever.
00:43:34.020And then he was ultimately exonerated at trial.
00:43:38.080And we should not let him, his personnel decisions, moving around a couple of people, have us lose sight of that.
00:43:47.080This guy, everything that he ever accused Donald Trump of, he has got it 10 times over.
00:43:54.640Now, on the other side of accountability, so you've got the science advisor, he's got to be held accountable, he's got to go.
00:43:59.280On the other side, you've got certain disgraced politicians who are now being rehabilitated.
00:44:04.760Our friends, those hens at The View, are trying to rehabilitate, as some of us called it a number of months ago.
00:44:14.340You know, I hate to say I told you so.
00:44:16.240The hens at The View are trying to rehabilitate LoveGov, Andrew Cuomo.
00:44:21.120There are reports that he's strongly considering a return to politics, maybe even running for attorney general against the woman who took him down, Letitia James.
00:44:31.300Cuomo has always denied any allegations against him, and he was never found guilty of a crime, to be fair.
00:44:37.160But can he come back from this scandal?
00:44:39.240Because he kind of lost a lot of his mojo in the public eye, even if he wasn't actually convicted.
00:44:45.700I don't know that he lost a lot of support from New Yorkers.
00:44:47.940I think if you ask the majority of New Yorkers, they feel that he did a good job as governor, especially handling the pandemic when the Trump administration was not handling it well on a federal level.
00:44:58.500And, you know, I think there's the other thing that he said during his interview, I think, with Bloomberg, he said that Tisha James was this was a sort of a political prosecution.
00:45:11.980And I think there is something there, you know, where there's some smoke, there's fire.
00:45:15.980Am I living in an alternate reality that New Yorkers love Andrew Cuomo?
00:45:30.160He's no, we've already we've already been through that.
00:45:34.420We've already been through Chris Cuomo and CNN and everybody saying Andrew Cuomo was the greatest, greatest governor on on COVID.
00:45:41.540And Ron Death Santus was the worst governor on COVID.
00:45:45.000And then we got the numbers and it turned out that that Andrew Cuomo's policies directly led to the deaths of thousands and thousands of elderly New Yorkers in nursing homes because he sent sick people to nursing homes.
00:45:55.300And then on top of that, while Andrew Cuomo knew that his policies were killing people, he took millions and millions of dollars to write a book about how great he was on COVID and then use state resources to help write the book and then tried to avoid getting an investigation from the federal government, which knew that he was cooking the numbers on this dead senior citizens.
00:46:14.840Andrew Cuomo was the single worst governor in the country on COVID.
00:46:18.080The death numbers, the hospitalization numbers were right there at the very tippy top of the country.
00:46:25.320He was always in the top handful of states for all of those things.
00:46:29.340And when you get down to his personal decisions, they were worse than anybody else.
