The Stone Zone, entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

Well, Disney has announced that they're returning Jimmy Kimmel live to the airways effective Tuesday,
00:00:17.520
ending his suspension for making offensive and dishonest comments about Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk
00:00:24.200
following his brutal lytical assassination in Utah.
00:00:31.540
last Wednesday we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation
00:00:41.780
It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive.
00:00:47.660
We spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy,
00:00:51.060
and after those conversations we reached the decision to return the show to the air on Tuesday.
00:00:56.480
So it appears that Disney believes the outrage has subsided and then go back to business as usual
00:01:02.080
with Kimmel spewing his anti-Trump invective virtually every single night.
00:01:06.900
In fact, a study by the New York Post showed that 97% of Kimmel's political commentary was anti-Trump.
00:01:14.000
Therefore, the people will have to demonstrate that Kimmel's antics are intolerable,
00:01:17.820
but do so by creating enough market pressure for Disney to officially cut their ties with this left-wing lowlife.
00:01:24.300
Since the political assassination of Charlie Kirk, the right has gone on offensive,
00:01:28.260
targeting individuals who are openly expressing glee at Charlie Kirk's brutal murder
00:01:33.100
with tactics that the left has used for part of their cancel culture campaigns in recent years.
00:01:38.640
The left, as a result, are actually feeling the pain.
00:01:41.500
Now they are losing their jobs, being deluged with angry messages from impatient patriots
00:01:46.440
and experiencing social isolation as a result of their actions.
00:01:49.760
As the left once emphatically stated, freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences.
00:01:56.340
Now they are being forced to choke on their own words, and, well, they don't like it very much.
00:02:00.520
The left, in response, is pointing out the supposed hypocrisy of the right, adopting their tactics.
00:02:05.640
The left loves to snarkily reference the principles of the right,
00:02:11.240
and manipulate those of us on the right on a disingenuous and completely cynical basis.
00:02:16.160
This can be an effective strategy because conservatives at their core are morally decent people
00:02:22.820
You see, those on the left do not operate under these same standards.
00:02:26.680
They are willing to lie, cheat, steal, deceive, and adopt any unethical tactic necessary to win.
00:02:32.880
This explains their Lucifer-inspired Bible, Rules for Radicals,
00:02:37.220
written by the famous communist radical Saul Alinsky.
00:02:40.540
Remember his most important rule, which is always accuse your opponents,
00:02:45.880
your enemies, of that which you yourself are actually doing.
00:02:49.440
This gives them a major tactical advantage when going up against those of us on the right
00:02:53.840
in the sphere of politics, where the worst tends to rise to the top.
00:02:57.500
The left has diabolically and clandestinely infiltrated key societal institutions
00:03:05.000
The left's iteration of cancel culture was the beginning of the bolsovization of America,
00:03:11.480
They operated as their own private Stasi, patrolling social media posts
00:03:15.440
and threatening different entities into every strong-willed conservative being silenced.
00:03:21.280
They hoped to cancel people like me, making us unable to obtain jobs,
00:03:26.260
get bank accounts, or even put food on our families' tables.
00:03:31.120
I had 980,000 followers on Twitter in 2017 when I was unceremoniously canceled
00:03:38.400
simply because I was a supporter of President Donald Trump
00:03:41.660
and I was a harsh critic of the Mueller witch hunt,
00:03:45.200
which I correctly called a witch hunt at the time.
00:03:48.060
Now, thanks to the disclosures of the Director of Central Intelligence,
00:03:52.260
or I should say Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard,
00:03:58.420
Because of the unforeseen rise of generational political talent in President Trump,
00:04:08.960
and the public has grown frustrated with the left's warped and alien ideology.
00:04:13.100
The left has, at the same time, written the cancel culture blueprint,
00:04:19.960
Turnabout is fair play, after all, according to some.
00:04:22.880
Well, because I believe in the First Amendment and I believe in free speech,
00:04:27.660
I understand that the First Amendment and the rules regarding free speech
00:04:31.380
are particularly designed to protect speech that is repugnant, disgusting, and offensive.
00:04:38.860
many on the right would probably have accepted equivocations
00:04:44.080
But to do so would have become as bad as they are,
00:04:46.480
and keeping the high moral ground, to me, is of the utmost importance.
00:04:51.340
These are reasonable points, but after last week,
00:04:54.060
the right is no longer shackled by these kinds of objections.
00:04:56.760
The right understands if they lose everything, they hold dear,
00:05:01.400
and they will no longer be afraid to get our hands dirty.
00:05:03.800
You see, the left could previously gaslight the right,
00:05:06.360
and the weak conservative ink old guard could keep their people on the reservation,
00:05:11.900
but not entertaining notions that seemed too radical or too extreme.
00:05:15.240
So patriotic groups like the John Birch Society were purged from the fold.
00:05:19.060
Congressman Ron Paul and Pat Buchanan, both friends of mine,
00:05:22.180
were treated like lepers when they ran for president
00:05:24.540
for going against the neocon-globalist orthodoxy that dominated both parties.
00:05:31.500
The great Ronald Reagan was embraced only after he vanquished George H.W. Bush
00:05:37.980
and then grudgingly took Bush as his vice presidential running mate.
00:05:41.580
It took a personality as big as Donald Trump to shatter this glass ceiling,
00:05:45.580
imposed by the left and controlled by the right,
00:05:49.560
and the center of the party demands drastic action against the left,
00:05:53.420
and we will no longer accept excuses for inaction.
00:05:56.140
But that action comes in the place of defunding a group like Antifa,
00:06:00.600
who are actually causing mayhem, violence, and yes, death.
00:06:04.800
Is there no better example than what happened in the country
00:06:10.640
which was to say the destruction of millions of dollars
00:06:15.660
the injury of thousands and the death of hundreds,
00:06:18.420
and what happened in the wake of Charlie Kirk's brutal political assassination?
00:06:22.560
Prayer vigils across the country, indeed, across the world.
00:06:29.040
drew in excess of 250,000 people across the country
00:06:34.560
and who wanted to celebrate it after it was robbed from us by an assassin's bullet.
00:06:38.260
Kirk's wife, Erica, talked about how she's forgiven the killer
00:06:48.340
President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vince appeared,
00:06:51.200
and both of them were extraordinarily effective,
00:06:54.500
and how it will live on to be even more enthusiastically followed
00:06:59.740
I actually believe that Kirk now goes down in history
00:07:04.400
much like Barry Goldwater, who founded the modern conservative political movement,
00:07:09.880
Ronald Reagan, who rose from the ashes of Goldwater's defeat
00:07:17.980
who essentially was elected by the same political coalition
00:07:22.800
Charlie Kirk's memorial was a rousing and touching event.
00:07:25.500
He's becoming a rallying cry for conservatives around the world.
00:07:30.300
believing if they speak out, they might get shot like Kirk did.
00:07:35.200
and get on the front lines in the battle for freedom
00:08:07.100
the impact of these policies all across the city,
00:08:32.140
dox them, and subject them to harassment and threats.
00:08:51.800
prevents state officials from locking federal agents up
