The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 945 - White Jokes

00:00:00.000 For months now, the parents' movement has gained steam all around America,

00:00:05.220 storming school board meetings, exposing radical teachers,

00:00:09.340 even deciding the Virginia gubernatorial election.

00:00:13.760 But just as these normal moms and dads think that they are hitting their stride,

00:00:18.780 the peak of their powers,

00:00:20.700 one teacher has taken to TikTok to give everyone a reality check.

00:00:25.600 So I see how you think that you've done something here

00:00:28.660 because parents or community members have voiced concern to their elected official,

00:00:35.300 which is how that process works, not bringing it to a teacher, right?

00:00:40.300 They're taking it to the elected official.

00:00:42.460 And now that legislators are trying to implement these things.

00:00:48.160 But still, in fact, a parent, not my boss.

00:00:52.620 I don't actually answer to them.

00:00:55.040 So get bent.

00:00:58.660 So get bent.

00:01:00.560 So arrogant.

00:01:02.800 So radical.

00:01:04.920 So obviously correct.

00:01:08.660 Yes, we can complain to our representatives about radical racial and sexual ideologies in the classroom.

00:01:16.320 Yes, we can go viral at school board meetings and even win some of those seats for ourselves.

00:01:22.320 Yes, we can even occasionally get a particularly insane educator put on administrative leave.

00:01:30.800 But the radicals still run the schools.

00:01:33.960 They still run the classrooms and the administrations and the teacher unions and the training sessions and the curricula and just about everything else in the education system.

00:01:44.680 They've got real power and they intend to hold on to that power no matter what we do at the school board meetings or at the ballot box.

00:01:54.000 These radicals who are raising our kids don't think parents are their bosses because, right now at least, we're not.

00:02:02.880 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:02:04.080 This is the Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:11.820 Welcome back to the show.

00:02:13.240 My favorite comment yesterday is from Facto, who says, in the immortal words of Maury Povich, Pierre, you are not the father.

00:02:22.660 I think you're referring to Pierre Trudeau, the alleged father of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who bears a very strange resemblance to a certain Latin American island dictator, a communist by the name of Fidel Castro, who had a very close relationship to the Trudeaus and to Justin Trudeau's mother right around the time that Justin Trudeau was conceived.

00:02:45.660 I don't know.

00:02:46.220 I don't know.

00:02:47.480 In the words of Telemachus, it's a wise man who knows his own father.

00:02:50.880 It's unclear.

00:02:52.920 Justin surely exhibits some of the features of Mr. Castro, but Pierre Trudeau was no walk in the park either.

00:03:01.180 I think they're all probably cut from the same cloth.

00:03:03.440 Who knows?

00:03:03.860 Who knows?

00:03:04.200 It's a wise man who knows his own father.

00:04:26.960 This teacher who just went viral, the one who says, get bent, parents, you're not my boss.

00:04:33.980 She is not the only teacher who is threatening people, who is threatening parents, students, society at large.

00:04:41.800 There's another teacher who just went viral.

00:04:43.820 This from our friends over at Libs of TikTok.

00:04:45.640 A teacher, a black teacher, who is threatening white people purely on the basis of racial animus. 0.77

00:04:55.720 Black people, black people, coloreds only. 0.94

00:04:57.800 I got a question.

00:04:58.840 So you ever standing in public, right?

00:05:00.800 You stand in public and you see white people.

00:05:02.440 Do you ever get the urge to just, you know, you know, like you're minding your business.

00:05:08.200 It's like they're kind of minding their business and you just, just to scare them a little bit, just to scare them a little bit, just to scare them a little bit, just to give them the feeling like today's the day.

00:05:18.480 Today's the day that black people start retaliating. 1.00

00:05:21.060 Just to give them a little bit of a burning feeling inside.

00:05:24.700 No, just me.

00:05:26.140 I don't know.

00:05:26.540 Let me know.

00:05:28.160 Today's the day.

00:05:29.380 Today's the day.

00:05:29.780 Okay, now I'm going to go teach your kids, your kids of all different races, even the ones that I hate. 1.00

00:05:33.720 Even, even the students whom I hate on the basis of their race because of my ideology that says that all white people are oppressors and all black people are oppressed.

00:05:46.680 And it, it's an ideology that comes straight out of Marxism, the sort of later stages of 20th century Marxism.

00:05:53.940 Yeah, I'm going to be the ones teaching your kids.

00:05:55.540 Isn't that a good idea?

00:05:56.860 My issue here is not that the teacher is making a joke.

00:06:02.320 I hope it's a joke.

00:06:03.060 My issue here is not even that the teacher is making a racial joke.

00:06:06.420 I think racial jokes are fine. 0.99

00:06:07.760 I think jokes about ethnicities and cultures and, yes, even races, if they're made in good faith and good fun, are totally fine.

00:06:15.040 My issue here is that the teacher is making comments that are clearly not in good fun, clearly not in good faith,

00:06:24.760 and that the teacher has a very perverse ideology that is going to destroy the education of her students. 1.00

00:06:31.460 And so she should not be allowed to teach the kids. 0.89

00:06:34.920 She should be fired. 0.98

00:06:36.500 Simple as that.

00:06:37.960 Okay, that's how we're going to wield power.

00:06:40.300 The way we're going to wield power is, yes, we go to the school boards.

00:06:43.380 Yes, we complain.

00:06:44.400 Yes, we go elect people.

00:06:45.400 But you've got to get into the classrooms.

00:06:48.380 Okay?

00:06:48.700 It goes without saying.

00:06:50.540 I don't even want to say it.

00:06:52.200 It's so lame every time a conservative, but, you know, what are the conservatives?

00:06:56.920 They say, well, imagine.

00:06:58.160 Imagine if the roles were reversed.

00:06:59.580 Imagine if the shoe were on the other foot.

00:07:01.160 And you had a teacher.

00:07:02.280 Let's say you had a, I don't know, a Hispanic teacher walking in and saying,

00:07:06.940 hey, whenever you see black people, don't you just want to threaten them? 0.99

00:07:09.180 Don't you just want to go ahead and say today is the day?

00:07:10.760 Well, of course, that's not the way that it works.

00:07:14.640 It's silly and impotent to just complain and say, well, what if the shoe was on the other foot?

00:07:20.940 What if the roles were reversed?

00:07:22.060 That's not the way it is.

00:07:23.000 We are living in a particular circumstance in our classrooms, in our politics, and we need to deal with that.

00:07:29.760 And this teacher teaching students is not going to be good for white kids, not going to be good for black kids,

00:07:34.060 not going to be good for any kind of kids because this teacher is teaching things that are false

00:07:39.220 and then also a real sort of vitriol, a real sort of resentment that is not conducive to education.

00:07:46.940 Fire the teacher. 0.99

00:07:48.200 Simple as that.

00:07:48.980 It's not only radical racial stuff in the classroom.

00:07:51.920 Perhaps even more so, it's this radical sexual stuff.

00:07:54.940 Another, I'm so grateful to TikTok.

00:07:57.960 If it is the case that TikTok is not merely Chinese propaganda designed to weaken the West from within

00:08:04.080 and make us all think our culture is crazy,

00:08:05.700 if TikTok is real and these are real people out there going on to social media and expressing their real views,

00:08:13.480 then TikTok is doing a wonderful service.

00:08:15.760 I love it.

00:08:16.160 I think the government should subsidize TikTok because it's showing us for the first time, perhaps in many, many years,

00:08:22.300 what's actually going on in the classroom.

00:08:24.860 So what one teacher is doing is he's saying we are going to have a transgender closet in our classroom.

00:08:32.280 And so what's going to happen is students are going to come to school

00:08:34.420 and then we're going to convince little boys that they're little girls and little girls that they're little boys.

00:08:39.140 And then they're going to come out and they're going to be inducted into our creepy sexual cult 0.99

00:08:43.400 and we're not going to tell their parents.

00:08:44.800 The goal of the transition closet is for our students to be able to wear the clothes that their parents approve of,

00:08:51.120 come to school, and then swap out into the clothes that fit who they truly are.

00:08:55.120 And I use the idea that this is like Superman changing in a phone booth.

00:08:58.880 But that idea actually goes a lot further than that because Superman isn't Clark Kent.

00:09:04.120 Clark Kent is actually the disguise.

00:09:06.000 And when Clark Kent goes into the phone booth, he transforms into Superman, who's really just who he truly is, Kal-El.

00:09:11.560 And so this gives our trans students the opportunity to be the superheroes that we know they are.

00:09:17.480 What a creepy pervert.

00:09:19.660 I just, I don't know who else.

00:09:22.220 I'm not saying that he has bad intentions necessarily, but he's wrong.

00:09:27.520 He's got a very mistaken view of the world.

00:09:30.540 And you would have to be a creepy pervert to try to obsess over little kids' sexual desires.

00:09:36.920 That's, you just would have, even if you don't know that you're being a creepy pervert, you are.

00:09:40.160 And you shouldn't be in a classroom.

00:09:43.260 You shouldn't be in a classroom because it's weird and it's creepy.

00:09:46.380 And also on the educational front, the view that he is giving of human nature, his anthropology is just not correct.

00:09:54.420 He's saying that the body has nothing to do with who you really are.

00:09:57.880 That if you're a boy, but you think on some level that you're a girl, that's who you truly are.

00:10:03.940 That's why he uses the Superman Clark Kent analogy.

00:10:08.840 And he's saying it's who you, it's who you actually 100% are.

00:10:12.400 And your physical appearance has nothing to do with it.

00:10:15.020 And so we're going to teach kids that.

00:10:16.400 Well, if you teach kids that view of human nature, what you're telling them is you can't believe in Christianity,

00:10:21.400 which says that human beings are body and soul together.

00:10:23.860 You can't believe in Judaism. 1.00

00:10:25.480 You can't believe in Islam. 1.00

00:10:26.680 You can't, you can't, you can't believe what very likely your parents have raised you to believe.

00:10:33.660 That's all false.

00:10:34.960 Ignore your parents.

00:10:36.280 Ignore your biology.

00:10:37.700 Ignore reality.

00:10:38.920 Ignore your God.

00:10:40.360 Believe our creepy, weird sex cult.

00:10:42.940 And thank you, taxpayers, for paying for it.

00:10:45.300 And by the way, parents, if you have any problem with it, get bent.

00:10:47.540 Maybe the guy's a nice guy.

00:10:52.000 I don't know.

00:10:52.360 Probably he's not, but let's say that he is.

00:10:54.060 It doesn't matter.

00:10:55.200 The stakes are too high here, folks.

00:10:57.960 Classrooms are crystal balls.

00:10:59.700 You look at a classroom, you're looking at your culture in 20 years.

00:11:02.960 Do you want your culture to be one where ordinary, true views of human nature

00:11:09.320 and the cultural and religious views that built our entire civilization are banned,

00:11:14.560 are kicked out in favor of convincing your little Johnny that he's really little Jane?

00:11:19.260 No.

00:11:20.120 Fire the teachers.

00:11:21.160 What are we going to do?

00:11:22.280 What are we going to do about it?

00:11:24.580 All we can do, all I can do from my microphone right here at this table

00:11:28.160 is expose this stuff, call it to your attention,

00:11:32.960 and explain why it's so bad and what the stakes are.

00:11:36.120 Then what some other parents can do is go complain.

00:11:38.580 And that's good.

00:11:39.280 You've got to complain.

00:11:40.000 You've got to bring this to the attention of the administrators,

00:11:42.620 of the teachers, of the school boards.

00:11:43.980 But they don't really care.

00:11:46.400 Then you can go and you bring it to the legislators.

00:11:48.580 You can try to kick out the legislators.

00:11:49.640 But we've got to gain more power than that.

00:11:52.620 Right now, the left has a total lock on every single institution.

00:11:56.700 The rot runs so deep.

00:11:58.420 You've got to go in, not even just to the school boards, but into the classrooms.

00:12:02.060 You've got to become teachers.

00:12:03.280 You've got to become administrators.

00:12:05.080 You've got to enter that teacher union.

00:12:06.960 You've got to grab that power back or these creepy pervs are going to destroy

00:12:11.720 the next generation of Americans if they haven't done so already.

00:12:16.060 Not good stuff.

00:12:17.640 Not good stuff.

00:12:18.380 We've got to be able to do things for ourselves.

00:12:19.920 Like, for instance, when you want to order auto parts.

00:12:22.740 When I want to order auto parts, I go to rockauto.com.

00:12:26.600 Time is money.

00:12:28.880 Money is money, too.

00:12:30.340 And right now, time and money are in short supply because we've got inflation going through

00:12:35.340 the roof and everybody is just trying to scrape by and make ends meet.

00:12:38.900 So what I would recommend is you don't waste time driving to the physical brick-and-mortar

00:12:44.900 auto parts store and getting out of the car and then waiting in line.

00:12:48.160 And then you get up to the guy and the guy peppers you with a thousand questions about

00:12:51.360 the auto parts.

00:12:52.100 And then you say, I don't know.

00:12:53.020 I don't know what make and model and this and that.

00:12:54.880 Then he goes in the back.

00:12:56.700 They do not have the part because there's too many parts to stock these days.

00:12:59.840 Then he comes back.

00:13:00.880 He says, yeah, we'll order.

00:13:01.720 It'll be in in two weeks.

00:13:02.580 You drive home.

00:13:03.580 You go home or whatever.

00:13:04.740 Then you drive back.

00:13:05.260 It's a waste of time.

00:13:06.180 Go to rockauto.com, okay?

00:13:07.780 Rockauto.com, family business.

00:13:10.420 It's been serving auto parts customers online for 20 years.

00:13:13.860 Super easy to navigate.

00:13:15.300 Even I can do it.

00:13:16.320 That's how simple the catalog is.

00:13:17.840 Same prices for pros and do-it-yourselfers.

00:13:20.340 No gimmicks.

00:13:21.140 Always reliably low prices.

00:13:22.580 Go to rockauto.com right now.

00:13:24.280 See all the parts that you need for your car or truck.

00:13:28.340 And then, most importantly, write Knolls in their How Did You Hear About Us box so they

00:13:31.740 know that we sent you.

00:13:33.800 The teacher unions are one of the most effective ways that these radical leftists can hold onto

00:13:40.980 power in education, which means the way that they can reshape the entire generation, which

00:13:45.400 means the way that they can reshape the whole country.

00:13:47.380 The teacher unions.

00:13:48.360 And these are some of the most dishonest, corrupt people in the country who run these teacher

00:13:54.480 unions.

00:13:54.820 Give you a great example.

00:13:56.560 Jesse Aguilar.

00:13:58.660 Jesse Aguilar is a board member of the California Teacher Union, one of the worst in the country.

00:14:05.420 Jesse Aguilar.

00:14:06.360 He is insistent that students wear masks in school.

00:14:12.320 The California Teacher Union is insistent that students wear masks in school.

00:14:15.700 It's only, it's responsible.

00:14:16.960 It's for the public health.

00:14:17.900 It's looking out for the greater good.

00:14:19.980 Come on, folks.

00:14:20.880 Don't be so selfish.

00:14:22.640 Hey, come on, little kids.

00:14:23.700 Let's put on those masks.

00:14:25.840 And then Jesse Aguilar just went to the Super Bowl and he went to the Super Bowl in LA, right?

00:14:32.640 And Jesse Aguilar didn't wear a mask because none of these people really believe that the

00:14:38.920 masks do much of anything at all.

00:14:40.360 And even if they do, they realize that it doesn't matter if they wear one.

00:14:43.740 If everyone else is wearing one, then they don't need to wear one.

00:14:45.900 And, you know, it's, look, it's fun.

00:14:49.820 If you go to the Super Bowl, probably you're a powerful, wealthy, elite sort of person.

00:14:54.200 So they're all clean, right?

00:14:55.560 You're not really worried about their nice elite germs.

00:14:58.420 They don't really have any germs.

00:14:59.520 It's just the filthy, dirty, poor people.

00:15:01.400 It's just the little, it's the little kids and the people who have just as much power as

00:15:05.800 little kids, which is nothing.

00:15:07.120 You know, the kind of, the waiters, ugh.

00:15:09.480 You know, and the drivers, yuck.

00:15:11.600 Oh, and all the other, those filthy little people, they need to wear their masks. 0.99

00:15:15.900 But we, powerful union bosses, we don't need to wear our, we celebrities, we elected

00:15:21.560 politicians, we don't need to wear our masks because we're clean and we're nice people.

00:15:26.260 And now make sure you put your mask on while you get me my next glass of champagne.

00:15:30.540 And what are you going to do about it?

00:15:32.960 Nothing.

00:15:33.920 The reason that the kids are the last group that has to wear the masks, even though the

00:15:39.880 kids are the least likely people to go to the hospital or die or spread COVID, COVID-19.

00:15:48.800 Why is it that the group that is safest from COVID is the last one that has to wear the

00:15:52.740 masks?

00:15:53.180 Because they have the least power.

00:15:56.420 The whole thing is about power politics.

00:15:59.080 And the kids are a perfect example because kids, by definition, don't have any power.

00:16:03.040 And you can see this up through every other segment of society, the working classes, political

00:16:11.140 conservatives for that matter, who don't have any institutional power in this country, which

00:16:14.340 is why whenever we say true things about COVID or any other question, we get censored.

00:16:18.940 And we don't, there's nothing we can do about it.

00:16:20.760 Donald Trump, the sitting president of the United States, didn't have the institutional

00:16:24.860 power not to get booted out of the public square.

00:16:27.200 So little kids, obviously, what are they going to do?

00:16:30.000 Maybe they'll complain, but who cares?

00:16:32.120 You'll just tune them out.

00:16:33.780 We're all, we're all in the position of those kids right now.

00:16:36.780 And we are all being run roughshod over, specifically by these left-wing teachers, but, but they're

00:16:43.420 the rest of their cohort as well.

00:16:46.280 DC is finally listening to some of their voters.

00:16:50.380 They have to.

00:16:51.280 The Democrats know that they are headed for a, an avalanche of Republican votes this November.

00:16:56.820 So they're desperately trying to change course.

00:16:58.840 So DC, which instituted a draconian vaccine mandate and mask mandate just a month or so

00:17:05.600 ago, where you can't, you can't even go into a restaurant without someone checking your

00:17:08.860 papers.

00:17:09.240 You got to have 75 masks on your face.

00:17:11.020 You got to wear, basically you have to wear a full burka if you want to go get a beer in 1.00

00:17:13.840 Washington, DC.

00:17:14.900 Well, now they're lifting the indoor mask mandate.

00:17:19.420 They just, they previously announced they were going to lift the vaccine mandate.

00:17:22.040 Now they're going to lift the indoor mask mandate.

00:17:24.280 They're going to lift the indoor mask mandate in restaurants and bars and sports and entertainment

00:17:33.940 venues and supermarkets and pharmacies and retail businesses and private offices and government

00:17:40.140 offices and houses of worship and strip clubs and strip clubs.

00:17:44.080 But there's one place they're going to keep the mask mandate.

00:17:47.460 You know where it is?

00:17:49.460 Schools.

00:17:51.300 The little kids with the lowest risk of COVID catching it or spreading it.

00:17:57.960 They have to mask up.

00:18:00.400 But some filthy degenerate, probably politician, if I, if probably member of Congress walking

00:18:06.940 into some dirty, rotten Hunter Biden strip club in Washington, DC, doing heaven knows what

00:18:14.620 with people who are probably not the most hygienic and sanitary people in the world.

00:18:20.720 They don't need to wear the mask.

00:18:22.380 That'll be clean.

00:18:23.180 That'll be fine.

00:18:24.200 But little kids trying to learn their ABCs, their reading, writing, and their arithmetic,

00:18:29.240 they need to mask up.

00:18:32.600 And what are you going to do about it?

00:18:33.940 What are you going to, the kids are going to complain and the teachers are going to say,

00:18:38.060 who cares?

00:18:38.340 You're a kid.

00:18:38.800 Shut up. 0.95

00:18:39.160 Who cares?

00:18:40.500 But the strip clubs, well, there you're going to get politicians complaining. 1.00

00:18:43.820 There, there you're going to get the president's son complaining.

00:18:46.340 And when the, listen, when the president's son, when Hunter complains, when the big guy complains,

00:18:51.260 when all those dirty, rotten degenerates who want to go to the strip clubs complain, 1.00

00:18:55.560 well, then people listen.

00:18:56.700 Why?

00:18:57.040 Because they have more power.

00:19:00.500 So that, yeah, I wish that we lived in a time.

00:19:03.940 Where politics was a little more reasonable, where it was a little bit more logical, open

00:19:10.340 to reason, a little bit more civil.

00:19:12.380 Politics can always be a bit of a blood sport, but there are times when it's more civilized

00:19:15.800 than at other times.

00:19:16.800 There are times when we, we sort out our problems through reasoned debate.

00:19:20.360 There are times when we sort out our problems by whipping and caning each other on the steps

00:19:23.480 of the Capitol.

00:19:24.300 And I think we're a little closer to the latter right now than the former.

00:19:27.920 But you've got to accept reality.

00:19:30.980 We are, right now, we are in power politics time.

00:19:34.400 That's what the left has told us.

00:19:35.580 The left has said politics is not about reason.

00:19:38.260 It's not about logic.

00:19:39.800 All of those things are just constructs of bigotry and white supremacy and all sorts of

00:19:44.820 evil.

00:19:46.260 And so it's not, that's not what politics is.

00:19:48.120 It's just about interest groups and enforcing through tyranny of will our desires on the rest

00:19:53.100 of the country.

00:19:53.720 That's what we're saying.

00:19:54.180 So, okay, if that's the way politics is, and the left controls every single institution,

00:19:59.260 then we've got to go in and take back those institutions.

00:20:01.260 We've got to build parallel institutions.

00:20:02.860 We've got to go in and take back their institutions.

00:20:04.800 And the ones we can't take back, we've got to defund and politically speaking, legislatively

00:20:10.220 speaking, raise them, knock them to the ground and plow the earth with salt where they 0.98

00:20:14.900 once stood.

00:20:16.100 Okay, that's what we should do in Silicon Valley or in some of the elite schools and the teacher

00:20:20.480 union buildings is metaphorically, figuratively, through legislation, perhaps, get rid of

00:20:28.360 their buildings and salt the earth where they stood.

00:20:30.260 Because as long as they're holding onto power, we can whine and complain until we're blue in

00:20:34.740 the face.

00:20:35.100 It's not going to do anything.

00:20:36.960 Strip clubs get to take their masks off, but the little kids don't. 1.00

00:20:40.500 Speaking of stripping, I've got some, I've got some disturbing news.

00:20:46.160 If you're driving, pull over, if you're standing up, you're probably going to want to sit down.

00:20:51.840 The singer Lizzo, known for very publicly and very emphatically being corpulent and proud

00:21:00.280 of her corpulence.

00:21:02.600 Lizzo wants to strip for Playboy.

00:21:06.400 I'm speechless.

00:21:12.440 She was asked by TMZ about Playboy.

00:21:14.960 She said, I love Playboy.

00:21:15.980 I want to strip for Playboy.

00:21:17.900 And I don't, I'm really torn here.

00:21:20.020 I think a lot of conservatives are in a tough spot because it's very rude to say anything

00:21:24.380 mean, certainly about a woman's appearance, but really about anybody's appearance.

00:21:27.340 And I don't want to do that.

00:21:29.240 I don't, I don't, I want to be polite.

00:21:31.300 I want to be nice.

00:21:32.380 I, I, no one, but the culture is kind of forcing us to now because the, the leftist

00:21:39.220 culture is dead set on destroying all traditional standards, standards of truth, standards of

00:21:45.560 beauty, standards of virtue and goodness.

00:21:47.680 And they're, they're installing a kind of anti-standard in its place, right?

00:21:53.860 We're told not only are you not allowed to say that men are not women, but you have to 1.00

00:22:00.780 say that certain men are women.

00:22:03.280 Not only are you not allowed to say that certain art, let's say the Sistine Chapel is more beautiful

00:22:10.180 than other art, say the, the urinal by the modern artist in those stupid modern art museums.

00:22:16.640 Not only are you not allowed to say that, you have to say that the modern art is beautiful.

00:22:21.060 You have, and, and so we have to, all the billboards now, all of the advertising used to have

00:22:26.280 smoking hot women advertising all of the clothing and new products.

00:22:31.000 Now it's actively trying to model things on not the most beautiful stuff.

00:22:39.560 Nobody wants Lizzo to model in Playboy.

00:22:43.400 One, because, you know, it's probably not the most edifying, ennobling thing in the world.

00:22:48.420 It probably wouldn't be great for Lizzo, probably, and, but people, people don't want to see

00:22:53.820 that.

00:22:54.300 And it's not, that's not bigoted not to want to see Lizzo naked.

00:22:58.100 It's not, it's not, doesn't make you a bad person that you don't find, if you don't find

00:23:03.140 Lizzo attractive, physically attractive, okay?

00:23:05.440 There is this, there's this amazing misunderstanding of what really matters in life going on here.

00:23:12.200 Because on the one hand, you've got the, previously in our society, maybe 20, 30 years ago, you

00:23:19.020 had an obsession with perfecting the body, airbrushing, all these sorts of eating disorders, all these

00:23:24.520 ways to, to plastic surgery, to make yourself look perfect.

00:23:27.780 You have to perfect the body.

00:23:29.120 Now we've moved in completely the opposite direction.

00:23:31.400 People want to distort their bodies through mutilations, through very, sort of insane piercings

00:23:37.320 and tattooing and, and eating disorders in the other direction.

00:23:40.860 So we're, we're, we're focused on basically the same thing, two sides of the same point.

00:23:45.140 We've got to perfect the body in all ways.

00:23:48.300 When was the last time we talked about perfecting the soul?

00:23:51.100 When was the last time we talked about ennobling ourselves and practicing virtue?

00:23:54.700 And that, that's completely gone from the conversation.

00:23:57.800 We're stuck in this crazy materialist trap.

00:24:01.340 Those sweltering summer nights that leave you tossing and turning, desperately kicking

00:24:04.780 off the covers, don't have to ruin your sleep.

00:24:32.400 You know, one way to get out of these materialist traps is to tune into people who are trying

00:24:39.100 to turn the culture in a different direction.

00:24:41.600 And that would, I, you know, listen, I don't want to toot our own horn, but that's what

00:24:45.760 we're trying to do here at the Daily Wire.

00:24:47.000 We're not even just commenting on culture.

00:24:49.420 We are making culture ourselves.

00:24:52.400 We've just released our first original movie, Shut In.

00:24:55.720 The movie currently has a 100% critic score and a 97% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

00:25:03.640 These are shocking numbers.

00:25:05.480 I did, look, I, I, I just thought the critics were going to kill us.

00:25:09.100 And I thought, you know, I thought the audience, our audience would love it, but then the left

00:25:12.880 would go in and bring the numbers down.

00:25:14.800 They can't do it though because the movie is too good.

00:25:16.820 So if you missed it, head on over to dailywire.com slash subscribe right now.

00:25:21.740 You can subscribe to the Daily Wire to get Shut In, to get our next movie, Hyperions,

00:25:33.780 We're going to try to change the culture.

00:25:34.900 Also, you know, the best way to fight the insidious attack on America right now is to

00:25:40.840 expose the source from within.

00:25:42.820 We've got one of Daily Wire's newest projects coming up, The Enemy Within, our new series

00:25:47.420 featuring acclaimed journalist and expert in national threats, Lee Smith.

00:25:51.400 Lee is going to uncover a political coup orchestrated by America's ruling class to generate their

00:25:57.660 own wealth and power at the expense of the American people's safety and freedom.

00:26:01.620 Check out the trailer.

00:26:02.920 What if everything we think we know about our leaders, our society, and our relations with

00:26:08.980 the rest of the world is wrong?

00:26:12.820 America is facing two major challenges.

00:26:18.240 One is the Chinese Communist Party.

00:26:20.440 However, the most significant threat comes from within.

00:26:24.860 You're trying to obscure responsibility for four million people dying around the world.

00:26:29.540 Senator Paul, you do not know what you are talking about.

00:26:33.300 We've already seen evidence of how the elites want to run the United States.

00:26:37.780 They're modeling themselves after Chinese autocracy. 0.98

00:26:41.000 For over a decade, the People's Republic of China has stood publicly accused of acts of cruelty

00:26:49.100 and wickedness that match the cruelty and wickedness of many evil torturers and executioners.

00:26:58.960 Diane Feinstein had a Chinese spy as her driver for 20 years.

00:27:05.420 We're not talking about one person infiltrating senior levels at the CIA or the White House.

00:27:12.380 We're talking about an entire elite class throughout the political, corporate, academic, cultural, and media establishment.

00:27:20.740 My name is Lee Smith.

00:27:22.580 I've been a journalist for more than 30 years.

00:27:25.860 This is the most astonishing espionage and infiltration operation in history.

00:27:31.800 What you're going to see in this series will shock you.

00:27:35.500 This is The Enemy Within.

00:27:48.760 The Enemy Within is going to start streaming February 18th only at The Daily Wire.

00:27:53.440 So if you're not a member, head on over right now to dailywire.com slash subscribe.

00:27:56.640 Join today.

00:27:57.180 We'll be right back with a lot more.

00:28:05.500 Speaking of Playboy, there are more horrifying reports out about Hugh Hefner.

00:28:17.600 So we covered one a few weeks ago on the show.

00:28:20.120 One of Hugh Hefner's more recent girlfriends said that he's actually an old creep.

00:28:24.720 Which is shocking, right?

00:28:25.600 This is breaking news.

00:28:27.380 Guy who lives in bathrobe with lots of women and brags about sleeping with them all the time might be sort of a creep.

00:28:34.060 Well, there's a new series that's coming out and one of Hefner's older girlfriends from the 70s tells even more disgusting stories.

00:28:45.820 So Hefner's former girlfriend says that the founder of Playboy was a monster who spoke to her about getting sexual pleasure from watching snuff films.

00:28:56.200 That's films where people get killed and even got frisky with one of her dogs, like an actual dog, like an animal. 0.98

00:29:05.920 She said, quote, he was like a vampire.

00:29:08.020 He was sucking the life out of me.

00:29:09.220 Really, he was a monster.

00:29:10.620 The things he was turned on by, nothing was enough.

00:29:13.480 Nothing.

00:29:14.780 He would tell the public even good girls enjoy sex, healthy sex, and there was nothing healthy about the sex with Hefner because he took it too far.

00:29:21.160 The reason I mention this is, one, also to discourage Lizzo from stripping for Playboy, but two, to remind people something that it seems obvious until you get the temptation.

00:29:35.440 And the thing is, you can't get around the moral order.

00:29:39.580 You can't get around it.

00:29:41.320 You think you can.

00:29:42.420 So much of modern leftism, modern political ideologies, are just about overcoming the moral order through your own will, just overcoming ideas of good and bad, right, which radicals on the left and the right have called a slave morality, bourgeois morality.

00:29:58.480 You've got to overcome all of that and then just do whatever you want all the time, and then life's going to be really great.

00:30:02.620 And it's not really great.

00:30:03.500 You can't overcome it.

00:30:04.240 This is why you see celebrities ruin their lives.

00:30:06.760 You think, man, if I were a celebrity, if I were rich and famous, man, I'd have the greatest life.

00:30:11.040 If I just had some more money and a little more fame and power, boy, I'd live the greatest life ever.

00:30:16.820 And then what happens to statistically 100% of celebrities?

00:30:20.360 They get drug addictions.

00:30:21.780 Their marriages fall apart.

00:30:23.100 Their kids hate them.

00:30:24.200 And they die early.

00:30:25.820 That's what happens to almost all of them.

00:30:27.780 Why?

00:30:28.120 They have every advantage.

00:30:29.300 They have all the good things that all the people want because they take it all to excess, because they think that they can overcome the moral order.

00:30:36.980 The rules don't apply to them.

00:30:38.180 And the rules don't apply to the elites in the teacher unions or in the government or in the media.

00:30:43.900 Why do we have to follow the rules?

00:30:45.840 We're special.

00:30:47.580 It's hypocrisy, of course.

00:30:50.460 But it's a hideous double standard, of course.

00:30:52.880 But it's also destructive for them.

00:30:54.880 Because when we're talking about good rules, when we're talking about the actual moral rules of the universe, they are there for your benefit.

00:31:01.860 If you follow them or try to follow them, that will lead to human flourishing.

00:31:06.420 And if you don't, then you're going to end up a dirty, rotten, filthy, despised degenerate like Hugh Hefner.

00:31:14.140 Don't do that.

00:31:14.800 You don't want to do that.

00:31:15.460 Speaking of, this is sort of sexual degenerates.

00:31:18.740 It's sort of the theme of the show.

00:31:20.380 Prince Andrew, the artist formerly known as Prince Andrew, who got fired from the royal family by his own mother because he was such a sex fiend.

00:31:30.320 Prince Andrew has just settled his case with one of Jeffrey Epstein's former call girls.

00:31:36.980 So, Prince Andrew, they've settled this out of court.

00:31:42.760 He, quote, intends to make a substantial donation to Ms. Jufri's charity in support of victims' rights.

00:31:49.360 And this is the statement put out by Andrew's lawyers.

00:31:52.380 Prince Andrew has never intended to malign Ms. Jufri's character, and he accepts that she has suffered both as an established victim of abuse and as a result of unfair public attacks.

00:32:00.960 It is known that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked countless young girls over many years.

00:32:04.120 Prince Andrew regrets his association with Epstein and commends the bravery of Ms. Jufri and other survivors in standing up for themselves and others.

00:32:10.840 Previously, he said, I don't know this woman. 0.75

00:32:12.380 I have nothing to do with her.

00:32:13.280 I didn't do it.

00:32:13.700 No, I never did anything bad with Jeffrey.

00:32:15.780 No, the only reason I kept hanging out with him after he got convicted for his kid sex stuff is because I was too good a friend.

00:32:21.240 I'm just too loyal, you know?

00:32:23.080 Like in a job interview, what's your greatest weakness?

00:32:25.140 I work too hard.

00:32:25.980 I care too much.

00:32:26.780 That was Andrew's first claim.

00:32:29.080 And then it was undeniable.

00:32:30.800 He's got photos with this chick.

00:32:32.000 And then so finally, he says, okay, or never mind.

00:32:35.780 His mother fires him from the royal family.

00:32:38.280 He loses his titles.

00:32:39.340 He loses all of the perks of being a royal.

00:32:42.000 And now he's got to settle this claim out of court.

00:32:44.460 Notice, notice though, he never accepts responsibility.

00:32:48.200 So what happens here?

00:32:48.980 I imagine he offered this woman a bazillion dollars.

00:32:53.440 He offered her some absolutely jaw-dropping sum of money.

00:32:58.940 She said, okay, fine.

00:32:59.980 It's sort of like you're admitting guilt here, and I'll take the money, and okay, well, it'll go toward her charity.

00:33:07.040 And Prince Andrew never has to actually admit guilt here, which is too bad.

00:33:12.360 But regardless, it looks really bad.

00:33:13.960 It's really undignified.

00:33:16.480 Okay?

00:33:16.700 And it's a cautionary tale for everybody.

00:33:20.660 Prince Andrew, born with as much privilege as could be, given the greatest education you could possibly be given.

00:33:25.620 This guy destroys his life, and he's the laughingstock of the world because he gave in to his appetites and temptations.

00:33:31.980 Don't be that guy.

00:33:33.180 Don't get fired by your mom.

00:33:34.920 That's really embarrassing.

00:33:35.980 And the only really, really sad thing about this, the way the Epstein case is resolving with these out-of-court settlements and the sealing up of the black book during the Ghislaine Maxwell case, is I want to know who else.

00:33:49.800 I want to know who else, and I want to know who else for sure, and I want details, and I want these people who flew on Jeffrey Epstein's plane who, look, I'm sure there were people who flew on his plane and knew Jeffrey Epstein who were completely innocent.

00:34:05.460 Really.

00:34:05.900 The reason for that is Jeffrey Epstein was throwing money around.

00:34:08.520 He was donating to a lot of very big charities and foundations, and so a lot of people met him in high society who probably had nothing to do with the girls.

00:34:16.400 But a lot of them did have something to do with the girls, and I want to find out who they are, and I want the details, but they're probably just going to get away with it.

00:34:23.660 They're probably just going to get away with it because the ruling elite have power, and we're on to them, right?

00:34:31.100 We know what they're up to.

00:34:33.380 They know that we know what they're up to, and we know that they know that we know what they're up to.

00:34:39.940 But it doesn't matter because they still have the power.

00:34:44.800 And we're going to need to do a lot more than just win some elections or make some documentaries or post some things on social media.

00:34:53.900 We're going to have to do a lot more to get actual political power back and then have the confidence to wield that political power.

00:35:00.000 We're going to—now, speaking of epidemics, it's a little bit of a hard transition, but speaking of just filth pervading our culture, Omicron. 1.00

00:35:12.100 Omicron is—that's the latest one, you know, that's spreading around, and we're supposed to shut down the world for that.

00:35:17.220 Well, they said, okay, we're going to shut down the world until we get a vaccine for Omicron to stop that surge.

00:35:22.100 Well, they're trying to get a vaccine for Omicron, except the early tests from the new Omicron vaccine show that the vaccines don't do anything more than the vaccines that already exist, which isn't very much when it comes to Omicron.

00:35:34.560 According to David Montefiore, the director of the Lab for AIDS Vaccine Research and Development at Duke's Medical Center, who's been researching now COVID vaccines, he says,

00:35:44.260 what we're seeing come out of these preclinical studies in animal models is that a boost with a variant vaccine doesn't really do any better than a boost with the current vaccine.

00:35:53.040 But of course, of course, if you were betting, this time they're going to be right.

00:36:00.880 They've been wrong about every other aspect of the virus, from the origin of the virus, to the mitigation measures for the virus, to the time table for vaccines, to the efficacy of the vaccines, to the this, to the that, to the every single thing.

00:36:16.820 But now they'll be right.

00:36:19.120 If you believe that, I got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

00:36:21.820 It doesn't matter, by the way.

00:36:22.620 So there was never going to be a great vaccine.

00:36:23.940 There is not a great vaccine.

00:36:25.140 There is not a vaccine that does all the things that they said the vaccine would do, which includes stopping infection and transmission.

00:36:30.940 We don't have that.

00:36:32.380 So there was never a great, perfect vaccine.

00:36:34.660 There was never going to be a great vaccine for Omicron.

00:36:37.220 And by the way, it wouldn't matter if there were, because there's just going to be another variant.

00:36:40.620 They're already talking about the next variant.

00:36:43.440 They're making a vaccine for the variant that's about to go away, and there's going to be a new variant, because it's a virus, and that's what happens.

00:36:48.660 It's just going to go on and on and on.

00:36:53.280 And those of us who are still, I mean, I suspect most people listening to this show don't believe the Fauci's of the world anymore, if they ever did.

00:37:01.460 But for the vast majority of people, it's their Charlie Brown with Lucy in the football.

00:37:09.520 They say, oh, but this time I'm going to let you kick at Charlie Brown.

00:37:11.740 Okay, I can't wait to get the Omicron vaccine.

00:37:14.080 Then we can go back to normal.

00:37:16.040 I'll just wear 10 more masks for 10 more days, and then what happens?

00:37:19.400 She pulls the football away.

00:37:20.460 It's maybe time to change strategy a little bit here, okay?

00:37:25.320 Because if we keep playing by the same old playbook, we're going to end up in exactly the same place.

00:37:32.520 They just keep getting away with it.

00:37:33.900 Hillary Clinton.

00:37:35.040 It's amazing that we're talking about all of these other things.

00:37:37.380 When maybe the most egregious political scandal in our nation's history just took place, just was proven, and the media are blacking it out.

00:37:46.840 What's that?

00:37:47.200 The scandal that just took place is that Hillary Clinton associates were spying on Donald Trump, as he said, as the media and the establishment denied, spying on Donald Trump when he was a candidate, in his home, where he was running his campaign, and as president.

00:38:04.060 They were spying on the sitting president of the United States and trying to frame him for colluding with the Russians, which is something the Democrats themselves had been doing for 100 years.

00:38:12.960 And Hillary Clinton was behind almost all of it, and no one's talking about it.

00:38:20.620 There was one woman who confronted Hillary as Hillary was walking into her apartment building. 1.00

00:38:25.960 Her apartment building or her house, I can't quite tell.

00:38:28.820 She was walking wherever she was going.

00:38:30.500 I'm sure the Clintons had plenty of properties. 0.88

00:38:31.880 She was walking in, and the woman said, Hillary, you got caught spying. 0.97

00:38:35.600 You got caught spying.

00:38:36.680 What does Hillary do? 1.00

00:38:38.020 She laughs.

00:38:38.600 Hillary, Laura Collins, Daily Mail, did you pay to spy on the Trump campaign?

00:38:45.840 What are you going to comment on the spying allegations, Hillary? 0.94

00:38:48.540 Did you pay for it to have them spied on?

00:38:52.600 Hillary, are you going to comment on this major scandal that you are not only involved in, but behind, that was just shown in a DOJ report from John Durham?

00:39:00.860 It was like, ha, ha, hi, ha, ha, ha, hi, bye, bye, see you.

00:39:05.740 And she waves it off.

00:39:06.720 Good on this woman for confronting Hillary. 1.00

00:39:10.680 Why isn't every journalist in America outside Hillary Clinton's door right now? 1.00

00:39:15.880 Why is Hillary Clinton even allowed to walk to her front door? 1.00

00:39:19.380 There aren't so many news crews and cameras and vans parked out front trying to get comment on very possibly the most egregious political scandal in our country's history.

00:39:28.560 Because they're all on the same team.

00:39:32.320 They're all in on it.

00:39:33.960 CNN and NBC and ABC and the New York Times and the Washington Post, they don't care.

00:39:38.920 They're not reporters.

00:39:42.320 They're not investigative journalists.

00:39:44.280 They're just on the team.

00:39:45.400 And there's one set of rules for the team.

00:39:46.760 And there's another set of rules for the rest of us.

00:39:50.060 And they've got the institutional power and we don't.

00:39:52.240 So the best we can muster is some lady showing up with a cell phone saying, Hillary, give me an answer. 1.00

00:39:58.120 They laugh at us.

00:39:59.460 They laugh at Hillary Clinton is laughing at that woman and laughing at us.

00:40:02.600 Justin Trudeau up in Canada, Justin Castro up in Canada is laughing at us.

00:40:09.460 There was a clip, it just resurfaced, of Justin Trudeau was asked which country he most admires in the world.

00:40:14.920 No, it's not Cuba.

00:40:15.860 That would have been funny if he said Cuba. 1.00

00:40:17.180 No, it's not Cuba.

00:40:18.200 The answer is somehow even worse.

00:40:20.120 Do you know which country Justin Trudeau most admires?

00:40:24.340 China.

00:40:25.440 Even with Sun TV watching for any slip, he was asked which country he most admired and referred to China.

00:40:32.600 There's a level of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime and say we need to go green as fast as we need to start investing in solar.

00:40:50.860 I mean, there is a flexibility that I know Stephen Harper must dream about of having a dictatorship that he could do everything he wanted that I find quite interesting.

00:40:59.760 When people tell you who they are, you should believe them.

00:41:06.360 And Justin Trudeau is telling you exactly what he thinks.

00:41:09.680 He's not making a joke.

00:41:10.980 He's telling the truth.

00:41:13.960 This is not, this shouldn't be a surprise to anybody who's been paying attention to what the left has been doing in our country and in our civilization for a long time now.

00:41:21.140 They want to move away from democratic accountability.

00:41:25.080 They want to move away from our constitutional order.

00:41:28.020 They want to move away from our traditions in America.

00:41:30.380 And they want to move toward a centralized technocratic hierarchy that doesn't need to answer to the people because the people are filthy, dirty, rotten idiots, according to the left.

00:41:38.660 And only the genius, elite, guru, expert Dr. Fauci's know how to run our country.

00:41:44.660 Never mind that Fauci's gotten pretty much every major issue wrong for the last 40 years.

00:41:48.660 But he's got really impressive credentials.

00:41:51.660 And he talks in a really very audite, but still folksy and charming way.

00:41:57.560 And so we've got to just listen to him and whatever.

00:41:59.880 And look, you might not like it, but trust me, he's right in the end.

00:42:02.500 What, do you want the people running your country?

00:42:05.340 Of course China's the model. 0.98

00:42:07.520 What is China?

00:42:08.660 It's communist, and the left has had a love affair with communism for a very long time.

00:42:12.800 But even more than that, it's technocratic.

00:42:15.720 It's just run by the experts.

00:42:17.080 The left openly loves that.

00:42:19.000 And it's atheist.

00:42:20.020 And the left openly loves that.

00:42:21.480 And the left hates Christianity.

00:42:23.300 And the left hates traditional religious views.

00:42:26.540 And they've been trying to overcome them for well over a century now.

00:42:29.280 And they've largely succeeded, at least in the public square.

00:42:32.440 So of course they love China.

00:42:34.160 And of course they don't want to call out China for unleashing this pandemic on the world. 0.97

00:42:38.280 And frankly, they probably think they stand to benefit from the pandemic.

00:42:42.880 They do.

00:42:43.240 That's not a conspiracy theory.

00:42:45.180 You might have heard, especially if you're reading left-wing mainstream sources, that there's a conspiracy theory called the Great Reset.

00:42:53.400 That the global elites, that can you believe these rube conservatives? 0.95

00:42:57.560 They think the global elites love COVID because it's giving them an opportunity to have a great reset of the world.

00:43:04.340 What a crazy conspiracy theory that you can read about in those exact words on the World Economic Forum website.

00:43:10.340 The World Economic Forum is an organization that was founded some years ago.

00:43:20.040 It's been around for a long time now to bring together the corporate and political and media elites from all around the world

00:43:28.760 to figure out how to transform our backwards, traditional nation states, national order,

00:43:35.320 into a more globalized, cosmopolitan, secular, multicultural, which is really monocultural,

00:43:42.580 because you're erasing all the actual cultural differences between different countries,

00:43:46.900 to just turn it into this wonderful technocratic future.

00:43:51.420 The World Economic Forum, on one of their webpages, titled The Great Reset, says,

00:43:58.140 the pandemic represents a rare but narrow window of opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reset our world.

00:44:07.700 This according to Professor Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum.

00:44:13.720 And they say, you know, you can follow, follow insights on how we can recover from COVID-19

00:44:19.200 to build a healthier, more equitable, and more prosperous future.

00:44:26.040 What is the World Economic Forum? I don't know.

00:44:28.020 It's just really powerful people flexing their power.

00:44:31.480 Where is the World Economic Forum in the Constitution?

00:44:34.000 Nowhere. Where is the World Economic Forum in our system of government?

00:44:37.240 It's not written down, but it exerts a lot of influence.

00:44:40.420 Certainly the people who show up to it have a lot of influence.

00:44:43.400 They're the leaders of the world, not only in politics, but in culture, in private business,

00:44:48.880 and really sort of public business.

00:44:50.280 The distinction is a little blurry.

00:44:51.960 In education, in all over.

00:44:53.820 They're focused on education, too.

00:44:55.340 The World Economic Forum just released a video on how important it is to defend critical race theory.

00:45:00.620 What is critical race theory, and why is it so controversial, they write?

00:45:08.720 Supporters of CRT say it's a way to understand and tackle racial inequality.

00:45:12.960 However, opponents CRT say CRT does the opposite.

00:45:16.460 So what is CRT?

00:45:19.280 The theory was first developed by U.S. legal scholars in the 1980s.

00:45:23.360 It argues that the laws, rules, and regulations that govern society today

00:45:26.700 have been shaped by the historical subordination of people of color.

00:45:31.220 And that this is a driving force behind racial inequality today.

00:45:34.120 We've got the nice music.

00:45:36.060 Take the U.S. criminal justice system, for example.

00:45:38.680 While everyone is seen as equal under the law,

00:45:42.180 black Americans are imprisoned at five times the rate of white Americans.

00:45:46.660 They say this disparity is a legacy of America's racist past.

00:45:50.560 Notice they don't talk about crime rates.

00:45:54.380 They just talk about imprisonment rates.

00:45:56.840 Supporters of CRT say that the opponents miss the point.

00:45:59.380 They say a system doesn't need racists working within it to produce racially imbalanced outcomes.

00:46:05.120 And so it's really just built into the system and it's really awful.

00:46:07.560 So what the World Economic Forum is trying to do is just what the Libs always try to do, 0.91

00:46:12.880 which is present their extremely radical views and their radical agenda to completely reset the world

00:46:19.880 as just a kind of moderate ideal look.

00:46:22.840 We're taking all sides.

00:46:23.940 We're really inclusive.

00:46:25.180 We're really open-minded.

00:46:26.300 And we're going to listen to the CRT supporters.

00:46:30.240 And we're going to listen to the CRT opponents.

00:46:32.700 And it just so happens that the CRT opponents are awful, disgusting, vile bigots who should never be heard ever again.

00:46:38.840 And the CRT supporters are, and that's what we're going to do.

00:46:41.680 And we have all the business leaders.

00:46:44.040 And we've got all the political leaders.

00:46:45.980 And all the media leaders.

00:46:47.580 And all the elites from every segment of society.

00:46:51.200 All over the even semi-civilized world.

00:46:54.160 And we're just going to kind of do it.

00:46:57.400 And because we're a non-governmental organization, and because we're working through lots of other NGOs,

00:47:03.180 you're not even going to really have much say in it.

00:47:05.580 Because it's not going to be the Congress that's passing this stuff.

00:47:09.000 It's going to be the corporations that show up to, I don't mean even just to single out the World Economic Forum.

00:47:14.240 It's going to be the people who show up to this and similar sort of events and organizations.

00:47:19.680 They're going to push it through their businesses. 0.60

00:47:21.620 They're going to push it through their corporate trainings.

00:47:23.040 They're going to push it through the classrooms.

00:47:24.720 They're going to push it through.

00:47:25.380 And you're not going to say nothing about it.

00:47:27.980 It's a reset.

00:47:28.520 You want to talk about a reset?

00:47:30.440 Van Jones.

00:47:31.100 Van Jones is a CNN analyst.

00:47:35.200 As far as left-wing analysts go, he's one of the more honest ones.

00:47:38.340 He admitted early on, though it was on a hidden camera, that the Russia stuff with Donald Trump was just completely bogus.

00:47:43.860 He said it was a nothing burger.

00:47:45.180 But then he had to walk it back because TV cameras showed up.

00:47:48.080 So Van Jones is resetting not just his politics, but his personal life.

00:47:52.020 He says,

00:47:52.800 After the COVID lockdown, I got clear that I wanted another kid.

00:47:56.580 I discovered that my friend, Noemi, also wanted a baby.

00:48:00.740 So we decided to join forces and become conscious co-parents.

00:48:04.900 It's a concept that I hope more people will explore and consider.

00:48:08.080 This month, we welcome to Earth a baby girl whom we will raise as co-parenting partners.

00:48:12.520 This is a special time for our families.

00:48:14.380 I feel grateful, joyful, and blessed as we create a safe and loving environment for this blessed young soul.

00:48:18.600 I respectfully ask for your privacy.

00:48:20.780 Thank you for all the love and support.

00:48:22.560 So Van Jones already has two kids with his ex-wife, and they were married in 2005.

00:48:27.840 They divorced four years ago.

00:48:30.380 And so he says, well, we'll continue raising our kids together, running our businesses together, and supporting each other's growth.

00:48:34.940 This is what Van Jones and his ex said in a joint statement.

00:48:38.040 There's no beef or drama, just evolution.

00:48:40.740 It's no drama, okay?

00:48:42.180 Yeah, he's going to—he had kids with his wife, and then the family split up, and he abandoned his family.

00:48:49.040 And then he's going to co-parent.

00:48:50.700 He's going to consciously co-parent with his friend because he wants another kid.

00:48:54.380 He wanted to get another kid.

00:48:56.060 And it's cool, and there's no drama.

00:48:57.560 It's just what he wants, and it's fine.

00:48:58.820 It's evolution.

00:48:59.460 There's no drama.

00:49:00.180 I bet there's drama for the kids, okay?

00:49:02.680 I don't want to get involved in someone's personal life, but he's making it public, and he's a public figure.

00:49:07.780 And this is a really pressing public political question.

00:49:11.380 This is extremely selfish and wrong.

00:49:14.640 This actually ties in to the most important story today.

00:49:17.360 We don't have a ton of time to get into it, but I have to bring up the most important story is Kanye.

00:49:21.640 Kanye.

00:49:22.280 Kanye right now is in the process, potentially, of this divorce with Kim Kardashian.

00:49:27.440 They've got these kids, and he's saying, I want to get back with my family.

00:49:29.700 I want my family to come back to me.

00:49:30.840 Please don't break up our family.

00:49:32.680 And Kim Kardashian is dating that derelict from Saturday Night Live. 0.99

00:49:36.160 And so Kanye is making fun of the guy.

00:49:38.260 He keeps calling him Skeet.

00:49:39.540 And he says, for everyone married, hold your spouse close.

00:49:42.140 Make sure they know how much you love and appreciate them, because there's a Skeet lurking in every dirty ASS alley,

00:49:47.400 waiting to help destroy your family and walk around in Calvin Klein's around your children.

00:49:51.160 I wish my wife was with me and our children sitting at the 50-yard line at the Super Bowl.

00:49:54.460 In the battle here between Team Kanye and Team Kim and Team Skeet, I guess he has his own team, I am 100% Team Kanye.

00:50:05.480 He's right.

00:50:06.600 It's an actual important question.

00:50:08.000 I know most people don't care about celebrity drama and TIFFs.

00:50:10.800 It's an important question, because what Kanye is articulating is the traditional view that marriage is a covenant.

00:50:15.600 It's a compact.

00:50:16.500 You don't get to just break it up willy-nilly over nothing.

00:50:19.380 Family matters.

00:50:20.520 Family is the basic building block of society.
