Verdict with Ted Cruz - Harvard Rewards Woke Politics, Cutting Off NPR & PBS plus Live Action goes Undercover on Planned Parenthood Week In Review

00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.

00:00:02.600 Guaranteed human.

00:00:05.180 Welcome. It is Verdict with Ted Cruz,

00:00:07.360 The Weekend Review, Ben Ferguson with you.

00:00:09.760 And here are the big stories that you may have missed

00:00:12.020 that we talked about this week.

00:00:13.480 First up, we may be finding out a lot more

00:00:16.500 about what Harvard has been doing with your tax dollars.

00:00:20.500 This, the president has said,

00:00:21.980 we are going to stop sending money to Harvard

00:00:23.740 after some of their radical ideology

00:00:26.020 has been on full display,

00:00:27.680 including rewarding students with big grants

00:00:30.980 who went after Jewish students.

00:00:33.580 We'll have those details for you in just a second.

00:00:36.400 Also, NPR.

00:00:38.200 Are we going to defund them?

00:00:39.720 It looks like there's a very good chance

00:00:41.860 NPR may have to stand on their own two legs

00:00:44.280 for the first time ever.

00:00:46.080 Why will this happen and what could it mean

00:00:48.200 for your tax dollars?

00:00:49.820 And finally, Planned Parenthood

00:00:52.060 in an undercover sting operation

00:00:54.320 is exposed for prescribing hormones

00:00:57.500 for minors when it comes to

00:01:00.400 with gender affirming care.

00:01:03.620 It's The Weekend Review

00:01:04.880 and it starts right now.

00:01:06.840 As they fight this final question,

00:01:09.300 is there an opportunity

00:01:10.940 through this legal challenge

00:01:12.680 for us to even be able to find out

00:01:15.020 more about what Harvard is doing?

00:01:16.840 Is that part of what could happen?

00:01:18.400 And the upside here is,

00:01:19.820 hey, we get to ask more questions.

00:01:21.120 We get to see more behind the books.

00:01:22.840 We get to see more of the propaganda

00:01:24.440 that we are talking about right now.

00:01:25.940 Well, that is absolutely right.

00:01:29.800 And I'm going to say the facts

00:01:31.040 are going to get worse and worse

00:01:32.160 as they come out.

00:01:33.040 Harvard doesn't want people to know the facts.

00:01:35.520 So, for example,

00:01:36.820 there were a whole series of stories

00:01:40.320 that came out about the Harvard Law Review.

00:01:42.160 Now, what is the Harvard Law Review?

00:01:43.360 The Harvard Law Review is a legal journal

00:01:44.940 that's at Harvard Law School

00:01:45.960 that has 80 students who are student editors.

00:01:50.360 And getting on the Law Review

00:01:51.480 is incredibly prestigious.

00:01:53.740 It is incredibly difficult to do.

00:01:56.440 Typical Harvard Law School class

00:01:57.920 is about 560 people.

00:01:59.460 So you have about 40 people out of 560

00:02:01.460 that make it on the class,

00:02:02.720 make it on the Law Review.

00:02:03.880 When I was there,

00:02:04.700 I was on the Law Review.

00:02:06.040 When I was there,

00:02:07.760 roughly half of the editors

00:02:09.280 on the Law Review

00:02:10.020 made it from a combination of grades

00:02:13.480 and a week-long,

00:02:16.360 incredibly arduous writing competition.

00:02:19.600 Another roughly half made it

00:02:21.560 from purely the writing competition.

00:02:23.420 But when I say roughly half,

00:02:25.100 at the time,

00:02:26.000 it was 32 were grades in writing,

00:02:28.240 32 were just writing,

00:02:29.760 and then eight were reserved

00:02:31.320 for affirmative action.

00:02:32.340 That's when I was there.

00:02:33.800 Now, by all appearances,

00:02:35.120 it has gotten much worse.

00:02:36.440 It was brazen then.

00:02:37.540 It was racially discriminatory then.

00:02:39.760 But it is now much worse.

00:02:41.720 The Harvard Law Review now

00:02:43.800 uses race explicitly

00:02:46.720 to, number one,

00:02:48.620 select their editors.

00:02:50.400 And by the way,

00:02:50.920 becoming an editor at the Law Review

00:02:52.300 increases your chances

00:02:54.060 of getting a judicial clerkship

00:02:55.440 dramatically,

00:02:56.240 increases your chances

00:02:57.180 of getting a Supreme Court clerkship

00:02:59.360 dramatically,

00:03:00.420 increases your chances

00:03:01.500 of getting hired

00:03:02.420 by a big prestigious law firm

00:03:03.860 that pays lots of money

00:03:04.780 dramatically,

00:03:06.180 increases your chances

00:03:07.280 of becoming a professor

00:03:08.500 at a prestigious university

00:03:10.400 dramatically.

00:03:11.060 So the Law Review

00:03:11.860 is a major gateway

00:03:13.480 to elite success

00:03:15.440 in the legal world.

00:03:17.060 And the Harvard Law Review

00:03:18.160 now, in writing,

00:03:19.120 they are quite open

00:03:20.020 in saying that

00:03:22.000 they will discriminate 0.99

00:03:23.160 for editors

00:03:24.960 based on race,

00:03:26.120 and they will also discriminate

00:03:28.220 on the articles they pick.

00:03:30.200 So, for example,

00:03:31.500 in a 2024 memo,

00:03:33.580 one journal article

00:03:34.940 argued that the fact

00:03:36.060 that the author was,

00:03:37.300 quote,

00:03:37.780 not from an underrepresented

00:03:39.480 background was a negative

00:03:40.920 when it came to evaluating

00:03:42.720 the piece for publication.

00:03:44.860 There is a, quote,

00:03:46.540 holistic review committee

00:03:48.280 which now selects

00:03:50.100 nearly half the student editors

00:03:52.020 and has made the inclusion

00:03:54.240 of, quote,

00:03:55.120 underrepresented groups

00:03:56.600 its first priority.

00:03:59.160 So, to be clear,

00:04:00.580 what you're saying is...

00:04:01.580 Violates Title VI.

00:04:02.940 So, to be clear,

00:04:03.720 you're saying

00:04:04.540 there's a chance now

00:04:05.700 that if you were at Harvard

00:04:06.680 you wouldn't get picked?

00:04:07.740 Is that what you're telling me?

00:04:10.480 You know,

00:04:11.340 I don't know,

00:04:12.340 and you don't know...

00:04:13.580 So, I say that

00:04:15.680 what's interesting about it

00:04:16.840 is you genuinely don't know.

00:04:18.340 It was one of the things

00:04:19.160 that they're very clever

00:04:20.480 in how they discriminate

00:04:21.340 because you don't know

00:04:22.440 on what basis

00:04:23.220 you were admitted.

00:04:24.740 I had the grades

00:04:25.820 to get in on grades

00:04:26.860 and I think I did well

00:04:28.600 in the writing competition

00:04:29.580 but I have no idea

00:04:31.040 which of the slots I was in

00:04:32.320 because nobody does.

00:04:33.140 They don't tell you.

00:04:34.120 They just announce

00:04:35.040 the 40 editors

00:04:35.860 that have gotten in.

00:04:37.600 So, I don't know

00:04:38.620 but I'll tell you

00:04:39.240 a story I've told before.

00:04:41.400 So, when I was

00:04:42.340 on the Law Review

00:04:43.460 there were a number

00:04:44.300 of conservative editors

00:04:45.140 and we made a run

00:04:46.300 at ending affirmative action

00:04:48.380 in the Law Review.

00:04:50.120 And I have to admit

00:04:51.000 I sat back

00:04:52.820 we were all

00:04:53.680 80 of us were gathered

00:04:54.680 in a classroom

00:04:55.900 and we were debating this

00:04:57.560 and there were

00:04:58.700 some other students

00:04:59.360 that were really

00:04:59.820 kind of leading the charge

00:05:00.780 some other conservatives

00:05:01.600 I agreed with them

00:05:03.460 but I also could count votes

00:05:04.960 and out of the 80 students

00:05:07.400 there were maybe

00:05:08.040 8 or 10 of us

00:05:08.980 that were conservatives

00:05:09.720 we were a tiny minority

00:05:11.000 so I was like

00:05:11.700 look, we ain't gonna win the vote

00:05:13.620 but alright, this is fine

00:05:14.460 let's have the debate.

00:05:15.720 So, we're having the debate

00:05:16.620 and I was sitting in the back

00:05:17.680 it was fairly quiet

00:05:18.560 and I remember

00:05:20.120 this one supercilious liberal

00:05:22.280 stood up and said

00:05:24.520 if we eliminate

00:05:26.760 affirmative action

00:05:27.760 the Harvard Law Review

00:05:29.840 will be nothing

00:05:31.160 but white men 0.88

00:05:33.160 and I have to admit

00:05:35.320 I was kind of

00:05:35.920 a little bit checked out

00:05:36.840 in the back of the room

00:05:37.440 and I heard that

00:05:38.080 and that pissed me off

00:05:39.440 and I said

00:05:40.460 you know what

00:05:40.920 you want to understand

00:05:41.740 why affirmative action

00:05:42.780 is so insidious

00:05:43.840 the arrogance 1.00

00:05:45.380 of that imbecile 1.00

00:05:46.720 just showed it 1.00

00:05:47.560 his belief

00:05:49.200 as an enlightened leftist

00:05:50.700 is that if merit

00:05:52.680 were the only criterion

00:05:53.900 only white men 0.53

00:05:55.280 would get in 0.85

00:05:55.920 that no one

00:05:57.240 who is African American

00:05:58.160 would get in

00:05:58.720 no one who is

00:05:59.500 Hispanic

00:06:00.100 and let's be clear

00:06:01.340 I'm Hispanic

00:06:02.520 he's sitting there

00:06:03.640 and in fact

00:06:04.060 I told him

00:06:04.640 I said

00:06:04.980 alright big guy

00:06:05.880 you want to pull

00:06:06.380 your transcript out

00:06:07.360 and my transcript

00:06:08.060 and drop them

00:06:08.580 on the table

00:06:09.040 right there

00:06:09.560 let's see

00:06:11.120 what pure merit

00:06:12.240 produces

00:06:12.800 but there was

00:06:14.720 something even more

00:06:16.120 dripping in his

00:06:18.140 leftist condescension

00:06:19.220 which is at the time

00:06:21.680 the Harvard

00:06:22.440 affirmative action

00:06:23.280 program did not

00:06:24.340 include gender

00:06:25.160 so there was not

00:06:26.840 affirmative action

00:06:27.640 for women

00:06:28.420 and I said to all

00:06:29.520 the women editors

00:06:30.100 do you hear what

00:06:30.500 he just said to you

00:06:31.260 he believes

00:06:32.800 if it's pure merit

00:06:33.900 no women would make it 1.00

00:06:35.840 and by the way

00:06:36.940 historically

00:06:37.500 all the women editors

00:06:38.460 who were liberals

00:06:39.180 voted against

00:06:40.480 adding gender

00:06:41.340 to affirmative action

00:06:42.300 because they recognized

00:06:43.440 that if it was

00:06:44.320 added to it

00:06:45.320 that people

00:06:47.520 it would devalue

00:06:48.720 what they had accomplished

00:06:49.720 but it showed

00:06:51.060 the just

00:06:51.640 the

00:06:52.440 absolute

00:06:54.400 arrogance

00:06:55.360 of the left

00:06:56.280 when it comes

00:06:56.960 to embracing racism

00:06:58.200 because at the end

00:06:59.380 of the day

00:06:59.860 they look down

00:07:01.420 on the poor

00:07:02.520 benighted people

00:07:03.460 that will only 0.68

00:07:04.720 succeed in life

00:07:05.800 with their beneficence

00:07:07.220 and by the way

00:07:08.200 the price for that

00:07:09.000 beneficence

00:07:09.600 is for them to be

00:07:10.680 loyal and obedient

00:07:12.340 for the rest

00:07:12.960 of their lives

00:07:13.580 I mean that is

00:07:14.260 the very explicit

00:07:15.260 left wing

00:07:16.080 charter

00:07:17.580 that affirmative action

00:07:19.360 is based on

00:07:19.980 which brings us

00:07:21.100 to another story

00:07:21.980 where this stuff

00:07:22.880 started on college campuses

00:07:24.280 and now it's made

00:07:25.320 our way into courtrooms

00:07:26.640 the Tesla arson suspect

00:07:29.480 one of them

00:07:30.780 and there's a lot

00:07:31.340 of them out there

00:07:31.860 right

00:07:32.100 but this one specifically

00:07:33.300 and we'll get to the story

00:07:34.820 of what happened

00:07:35.780 here in a second

00:07:36.360 but has been

00:07:37.300 quote released

00:07:38.480 because of

00:07:40.600 gender transition

00:07:42.360 would be at risk

00:07:43.880 if they didn't release

00:07:45.020 so if you're going

00:07:46.040 to jail

00:07:46.660 just say you're

00:07:48.060 doing a gender transition

00:07:49.420 and apparently

00:07:50.060 then the law

00:07:50.700 cannot hold you

00:07:51.440 accountable

00:07:51.840 for your terrorist

00:07:52.760 actions

00:07:53.300 so there's an

00:07:55.000 individual named

00:07:55.680 Owen McIntyre

00:07:56.640 who was on

00:07:58.000 spring break

00:07:58.660 in Missouri

00:07:59.220 and he

00:08:00.900 firebombed

00:08:02.880 two Tesla

00:08:03.760 cyber trucks

00:08:04.540 he threw

00:08:04.900 Molotov cocktails

00:08:05.960 he firebombed

00:08:07.320 it

00:08:07.460 he got caught

00:08:08.520 and he was charged

00:08:10.060 charged with

00:08:10.660 domestic terrorism

00:08:11.500 and then what happened

00:08:13.480 is his federal

00:08:14.200 public defender

00:08:15.000 argued

00:08:15.540 that

00:08:16.620 going to jail

00:08:18.140 will disrupt

00:08:19.700 his gender

00:08:20.900 affirming

00:08:21.580 medical care

00:08:22.520 which began

00:08:23.540 in March of this year

00:08:24.640 and is likely

00:08:25.200 to be interrupted

00:08:25.880 or terminated

00:08:26.500 entirely

00:08:27.060 if he remains

00:08:28.300 in pretrial

00:08:29.200 detention

00:08:29.740 and the federal

00:08:31.220 magistrate judge

00:08:32.220 bought that argument

00:08:33.340 and let him go

00:08:34.740 and let me say

00:08:36.220 one of the

00:08:37.000 craziest things

00:08:38.980 about this story

00:08:39.820 you and I

00:08:41.600 Ben

00:08:41.880 spent 20 minutes

00:08:43.220 trying to figure out

00:08:44.460 if this defendant

00:08:45.980 is male or female

00:08:48.100 by the way

00:08:48.660 he's not lying

00:08:50.220 I want to be clear

00:08:50.880 about that

00:08:51.320 we literally are

00:08:52.040 googling everything

00:08:52.700 like is it

00:08:53.260 is a dude

00:08:54.520 is a chick 0.62

00:08:55.180 and we don't know

00:08:55.680 what it is

00:08:56.200 like that's the

00:08:56.980 insanity of the

00:08:57.540 world we live in

00:08:58.220 and we can't tell

00:09:00.400 and you and I

00:09:01.960 actually disagree

00:09:02.820 so I think

00:09:04.200 this is a person

00:09:05.200 who was born

00:09:05.960 female 0.86

00:09:06.500 who has decided

00:09:08.100 that she is a he 1.00

00:09:09.280 and wants to be a man

00:09:10.400 and the reason

00:09:11.760 I think that

00:09:12.560 the reason I think

00:09:13.900 that is we've googled it 0.98

00:09:15.060 and every damn story 0.99

00:09:16.840 uses he he he he he 1.00

00:09:18.360 and given the insane

00:09:20.500 Orwellian world

00:09:21.300 we live in

00:09:22.020 I think if ABC

00:09:23.520 is referring to this

00:09:24.500 person as a he

00:09:25.500 and the person

00:09:27.040 is transgender

00:09:27.840 that to me means

00:09:29.640 the person was born

00:09:31.020 a she 0.87

00:09:31.420 now your argument

00:09:33.140 is Ben

00:09:33.700 this is a dude

00:09:35.440 that grew out his hair

00:09:36.480 and looks like a chick 1.00

00:09:37.480 then why does all the

00:09:39.880 media refer to this

00:09:40.880 person as a he

00:09:41.600 I I

00:09:42.240 because I think

00:09:42.960 everybody's lost 0.99

00:09:43.740 their damn minds 0.99

00:09:44.500 that's what I think 1.00

00:09:45.420 and I think

00:09:45.940 I mean

00:09:46.400 and the fact that

00:09:47.380 we even are at the

00:09:48.500 point where we have

00:09:49.180 to have this discussion

00:09:50.180 tells you how insane

00:09:52.000 the world is

00:09:52.920 you literally

00:09:54.920 every story

00:09:56.460 I clicked on

00:09:57.120 I googled it

00:09:57.840 and clicked on

00:09:58.580 story after story

00:09:59.520 and there's not

00:10:00.140 one that actually

00:10:01.840 describes the facts

00:10:03.180 one way or the other 0.91

00:10:03.920 so damned if I know 0.93

00:10:05.060 but either way 0.95

00:10:06.820 look the federal

00:10:08.680 prosecutors argue

00:10:09.740 this person is a 0.53

00:10:10.580 domestic terrorist

00:10:11.500 they're throwing

00:10:12.520 Molotov cocktails

00:10:13.660 and and it is

00:10:15.920 it is woke

00:10:18.200 politics taken

00:10:19.460 to the level

00:10:20.000 of insanity

00:10:20.720 that that that 0.85

00:10:22.220 to get a sex 0.57

00:10:23.000 change treatment

00:10:23.900 is now reason

00:10:25.560 to be forgiven

00:10:26.280 for domestic terrorism

00:10:27.300 although to be fair

00:10:28.000 it's not forgiven

00:10:29.200 it's released

00:10:29.860 from pre-trial detention

00:10:30.960 but it is still

00:10:31.820 insane

00:10:32.500 well but it's

00:10:33.540 it's helping you

00:10:34.260 right it's helping

00:10:34.860 you not be held

00:10:35.740 accountable for

00:10:36.500 your actions

00:10:37.280 and it's also

00:10:38.560 I think pretty clear

00:10:39.740 that we're saying

00:10:40.800 if you want to not

00:10:42.220 be held accountable

00:10:42.860 for your actions

00:10:43.620 just claim something

00:10:45.340 that's woke

00:10:46.020 and and these

00:10:46.940 radical judges

00:10:47.920 will be like

00:10:48.280 oh we totally

00:10:49.220 understand

00:10:49.700 let's just

00:10:51.100 change the rules

00:10:51.920 for you

00:10:52.340 because you're

00:10:53.040 in our

00:10:53.400 you're in our

00:10:54.080 special protected

00:10:55.100 class

00:10:55.580 and we want to

00:10:56.180 see you succeed

00:10:57.040 in your transgenderism

00:10:58.500 which is not

00:10:59.540 supposed to be

00:11:00.120 the job of the court

00:11:01.220 well I gotta say

00:11:02.860 this this insanity

00:11:04.060 is a big part

00:11:05.580 of the reason

00:11:06.000 Donald Trump won

00:11:07.020 in November

00:11:07.860 and we got a

00:11:08.660 Republican House

00:11:09.420 and a Republican Senate

00:11:10.300 because I think

00:11:10.700 a lot of people

00:11:11.300 are looking at this

00:11:12.420 and saying

00:11:12.780 this stuff is crazy

00:11:13.680 now if you want

00:11:14.760 to hear the rest

00:11:15.500 of this conversation

00:11:16.520 you can go back

00:11:17.520 and listen to

00:11:18.040 the full podcast

00:11:19.100 from earlier this week

00:11:20.340 Canadian women

00:11:21.820 are looking for more

00:11:22.880 more of themselves

00:11:24.000 their businesses

00:11:24.820 their elected leaders

00:11:25.940 and the world

00:11:26.680 around them

00:11:27.160 and that's why

00:11:27.780 we're thrilled

00:11:28.300 to introduce

00:11:28.940 the Honest Talk

00:11:29.980 podcast

00:11:30.440 I'm Jennifer Stewart

00:11:33.200 and in this podcast

00:11:34.280 we interview Canada's

00:11:35.580 most inspiring women

00:11:36.880 entrepreneurs

00:11:37.460 artists

00:11:38.340 athletes

00:11:39.000 politicians

00:11:39.640 and newsmakers

00:11:40.520 all at different stages

00:11:41.840 of their journey

00:11:42.680 so if you're looking

00:11:44.000 to connect

00:11:44.540 then we hope

00:11:45.220 you'll join us

00:11:45.980 listen to the

00:11:46.620 Honest Talk

00:11:47.060 podcast

00:11:47.580 on iHeartRadio

00:11:48.580 or wherever you

00:11:49.340 listen to your podcasts

00:11:50.280 now on to story

00:11:53.240 number two

00:11:53.940 there may be

00:11:54.880 accountability

00:11:55.400 coming very

00:11:56.580 very soon

00:11:57.380 when it comes

00:11:58.580 to the issue

00:11:59.420 of NPR

00:12:00.380 this is something

00:12:02.040 that the president's

00:12:02.920 talked about a lot

00:12:03.920 taxpayers don't like it

00:12:05.820 it's been pretty obvious

00:12:07.720 that at NPR

00:12:08.680 in PBS

00:12:10.200 there's a lot

00:12:10.900 of our tax dollars

00:12:11.600 that are going

00:12:12.200 to activists

00:12:13.700 and to those

00:12:14.580 in the far left

00:12:15.560 that want to

00:12:16.460 indoctrinate people

00:12:17.740 through our tax dollars

00:12:19.820 and now

00:12:20.740 accountability

00:12:21.340 may be coming

00:12:22.080 to NPR

00:12:22.640 well that's right

00:12:23.840 so the president

00:12:24.600 signed an executive

00:12:25.500 order

00:12:25.920 ending the taxpayer

00:12:27.740 subsidy

00:12:28.320 of NPR

00:12:29.020 and PBS

00:12:29.620 both of which

00:12:31.080 received millions

00:12:31.980 from taxpayers

00:12:32.840 and they're just

00:12:34.400 partisan propaganda

00:12:36.180 outlets

00:12:36.760 the order

00:12:38.340 reads as follows

00:12:39.160 by the authority

00:12:39.800 vested in me

00:12:40.380 as president

00:12:40.860 by the constitution

00:12:41.960 and the laws

00:12:42.900 of the United States

00:12:43.600 it is hereby ordered

00:12:44.840 NPR

00:12:45.780 and PBS

00:12:46.280 they will

00:12:48.540 be shut down

00:12:49.780 from cash

00:12:50.420 and let me read

00:12:52.780 some facts

00:12:54.140 on NPR

00:12:54.700 so NPR

00:12:55.860 ran a story

00:12:57.500 entitled

00:12:58.620 quote

00:12:59.220 cannibalism

00:13:00.520 it's perfectly

00:13:01.820 natural

00:13:02.860 in which the author

00:13:04.540 like

00:13:05.540 by the way

00:13:06.540 how am I saying

00:13:07.160 this

00:13:07.320 how is this real

00:13:08.140 the author

00:13:09.320 describes

00:13:10.100 eating in others

00:13:11.120 humans

00:13:12.500 placenta

00:13:13.620 so let me

00:13:14.860 read this excerpt

00:13:15.760 this is from

00:13:16.440 an NPR story

00:13:17.440 in the book

00:13:18.440 you describe

00:13:19.540 getting invited

00:13:20.240 over for dinner

00:13:21.280 by one of your

00:13:22.100 sources

00:13:22.500 to eat

00:13:23.660 her placenta

00:13:25.000 how was that

00:13:26.380 was it good

00:13:27.700 yeah

00:13:28.520 it was really

00:13:29.840 the prep

00:13:30.380 that made it

00:13:30.840 taste good

00:13:31.440 granted

00:13:32.360 the husband

00:13:32.900 was a chef

00:13:33.600 so he knew

00:13:34.040 how to prepare

00:13:34.600 it osubuku style

00:13:35.660 and used

00:13:36.840 a really nice

00:13:37.600 wine I had bought

00:13:38.420 it smelled

00:13:39.660 great

00:13:40.140 it didn't taste

00:13:41.440 bad

00:13:41.860 I wouldn't do

00:13:43.060 it again

00:13:43.500 I don't have

00:13:44.700 any regrets

00:13:45.280 I did this

00:13:45.980 so

00:13:46.820 I just want

00:13:47.760 to go back

00:13:48.080 to the title

00:13:48.660 NPR

00:13:49.620 cannibalism

00:13:51.120 it's perfectly

00:13:52.460 natural

00:13:53.480 all right

00:13:54.220 in 2021

00:13:55.100 another story

00:13:56.060 NPR said

00:13:57.260 the declaration

00:13:57.860 of independence

00:13:58.700 was a document

00:14:00.420 with quote

00:14:01.220 flaws

00:14:02.200 and deeply

00:14:03.240 ingrained hypocrisies

00:14:04.660 here's what they wrote 0.98

00:14:05.440 the declaration

00:14:06.520 is a document

00:14:07.300 with flaws

00:14:07.860 and deeply

00:14:08.240 ingrained hypocrisies

00:14:09.280 it also laid

00:14:10.000 the foundation

00:14:10.640 for our collective

00:14:11.980 aspirations

00:14:12.660 our hope

00:14:13.280 for what

00:14:13.960 America could be

00:14:14.800 so in that spirit

00:14:16.520 here again

00:14:17.460 is the declaration

00:14:18.680 of independence

00:14:19.280 as read by the

00:14:20.040 NPR staff

00:14:20.800 so that was

00:14:21.720 2021

00:14:22.420 where they just

00:14:23.740 crapped on the

00:14:24.520 declaration of

00:14:25.160 independence

00:14:25.520 and then they read it

00:14:26.340 you know what they

00:14:27.020 did in 2022

00:14:27.760 what's that

00:14:29.300 they said

00:14:30.520 we're not going to

00:14:31.020 read the declaration

00:14:31.700 of independence

00:14:32.220 anymore

00:14:32.580 so it was a long

00:14:33.280 tradition

00:14:33.720 and in 2022

00:14:35.580 they tweeted

00:14:37.240 the following

00:14:37.800 this July 4th

00:14:39.420 we break

00:14:40.480 with tradition

00:14:41.500 instead of

00:14:43.000 reading the

00:14:43.480 declaration

00:14:43.800 of independence

00:14:44.560 we examine

00:14:46.140 what equality

00:14:47.020 means

00:14:47.680 and is meant

00:14:48.760 in this document

00:14:49.760 important segment

00:14:51.640 about our past

00:14:52.580 and future

00:14:53.240 that so

00:14:54.460 the declaration

00:14:55.080 of independence

00:14:55.680 is apparently

00:14:56.420 no longer

00:14:57.620 allowed on NPR

00:14:58.640 because

00:15:00.020 apparently

00:15:01.460 hating America

00:15:02.280 is NPR's

00:15:03.040 mission

00:15:03.340 yet again

00:15:04.480 your tax

00:15:05.000 dollar is hard

00:15:05.560 at work here

00:15:06.120 so there's

00:15:07.260 going to be

00:15:07.620 pushback

00:15:08.160 right

00:15:08.400 there's going

00:15:08.720 to be

00:15:08.900 fighting

00:15:09.220 here

00:15:09.560 ultimately

00:15:10.700 what are the

00:15:11.500 chances

00:15:11.900 that this

00:15:12.460 sticks

00:15:12.820 and that

00:15:13.080 we actually

00:15:13.520 say

00:15:13.880 hey

00:15:14.240 you're not

00:15:14.680 getting the

00:15:14.960 tax dollars

00:15:15.560 for this

00:15:16.220 radical agenda

00:15:16.980 that you're

00:15:17.360 pressing

00:15:17.760 and trying

00:15:18.800 to indoctrinate

00:15:19.560 on so many

00:15:20.060 people

00:15:20.420 so look

00:15:21.020 I am hopeful

00:15:22.340 I want it

00:15:24.200 to happen

00:15:24.580 I'm fighting

00:15:25.100 for it to happen

00:15:25.740 let me give you

00:15:26.620 another example

00:15:27.320 NPR

00:15:27.920 issued an

00:15:29.280 editor's note

00:15:30.120 warning that 0.80

00:15:31.480 the declaration

00:15:32.100 of independence

00:15:32.940 is quote

00:15:33.700 a document

00:15:35.100 that contains

00:15:36.120 offensive language

00:15:37.380 and here

00:15:38.040 this was in

00:15:38.640 2022

00:15:39.200 editor's note

00:15:40.360 on July 8th

00:15:41.180 2022

00:15:41.680 the story

00:15:42.960 quotes the

00:15:43.680 U.S.

00:15:44.040 Declaration of

00:15:44.720 Independence 0.62

00:15:45.160 a document

00:15:46.240 that contains

00:15:47.060 offensive language

00:15:48.460 about Native

00:15:49.020 Americans

00:15:49.640 including a

00:15:50.800 racial slur

00:15:51.580 that was

00:15:52.680 what they were

00:15:53.840 saying

00:15:54.100 the declaration

00:15:54.860 they find

00:15:55.820 offensive

00:15:56.340 in the

00:15:58.420 NPR

00:15:58.820 also in

00:15:59.840 2019

00:16:00.420 they apologized

00:16:02.160 for calling

00:16:03.620 illegal immigrants

00:16:04.560 illegal 1.00

00:16:05.520 and they

00:16:06.560 posted

00:16:06.960 quote

00:16:07.840 sorry

00:16:08.660 that was

00:16:09.020 a mistake

00:16:09.560 NPR's

00:21:53.120 they have now

00:21:54.240 been exposed for

00:21:55.460 prescribing hormones

00:21:57.420 to minors in an

00:21:59.160 undercover investigation

00:22:00.460 well that's right

00:22:02.480 planned parenthood was

00:22:03.380 caught in a sting and

00:22:04.660 and undercover phone

00:22:06.420 calls were made by the

00:22:07.860 pro-life activist group

00:22:09.100 live action and it

00:22:10.800 showed that that

00:22:11.820 planned parenthood

00:22:12.580 clinics across

00:22:13.660 multiple states

00:22:14.740 offer cross-sex 0.58

00:22:16.700 hormone treatments

00:22:17.740 to minors as

00:22:18.820 young as 17

00:22:19.600 with very little

00:22:21.360 parental supervision

00:22:22.380 and very little

00:22:23.220 medical supervision

00:22:24.260 live action did an

00:22:26.420 undercover investigation

00:22:27.200 in which a woman 0.99

00:22:28.500 posed as a 16 year

00:22:29.920 old minor and she 1.00

00:22:31.500 called dozens of

00:22:32.600 planned parenthood

00:22:33.240 locations seeking

00:22:34.460 what she called 0.82

00:22:35.420 gender affirming

00:22:36.320 care at least seven

00:22:38.960 different facilities

00:22:39.940 said sure they

00:22:41.720 would provide cross-sex 0.98

00:22:43.320 hormones at the 0.57

00:22:45.460 first appointment

00:22:46.540 so not after a long

00:22:48.460 consultation just

00:22:49.520 immediately first

00:22:50.540 appointment come on

00:22:51.720 in we'll give you

00:22:52.460 those hormones 0.79

00:22:53.120 several instances

00:22:54.100 planned parenthood

00:22:55.680 told the caller she

00:22:56.800 could choose to meet

00:22:58.440 with the provider

00:22:59.380 virtually and have

00:23:01.960 access to the cross-sex

00:23:04.380 hormones the very

00:23:06.100 same day and this is

00:23:08.760 after being told the

00:23:09.640 person is is a minor

00:23:10.780 and and that they

00:23:12.120 had just begun

00:23:12.980 considering trying to

00:23:14.840 medically change their

00:23:15.760 sex in in minnesota

00:23:17.740 and in oregon

00:23:18.840 facilities there said

00:23:20.080 they could schedule the

00:23:20.960 minor within days or

00:23:23.080 even on the very same

00:23:25.400 day this is what

00:23:27.020 planned parenthood is

00:23:27.880 doing five different

00:23:28.940 facilities stated that

00:23:31.080 no prior therapy

00:23:32.920 zero no mental health

00:23:34.820 clearance and no prior

00:23:36.700 documentation was needed

00:23:38.280 to obtain cross-sex

00:23:39.980 hormones and

00:23:40.560 understand these

00:23:42.120 hormones can do 1.00

00:23:43.900 irreparable damage to

00:23:45.680 children they can

00:23:46.540 sterilize children they 0.99

00:23:47.860 can permanently harm a

00:23:49.640 child and planned

00:23:50.520 parenthood is is a

00:23:52.700 multi-billion dollar

00:23:54.340 business that is more

00:23:55.980 than happy to sterilize

00:23:57.280 your child without you

00:23:58.460 even knowing about it

00:24:36.540 affirming care i really

00:24:38.080 just want to be able to

00:24:39.000 get some testosterone to

00:24:40.440 start my journey so we

00:24:41.720 just have to start by

00:24:42.880 booking your initial

00:24:44.040 appointment so you can

00:24:45.020 come in to see one of

00:24:45.920 our providers are you

00:24:47.900 over 18 no i'm 16

00:24:50.200 you're good to be seen

00:24:51.800 here then 16 and older

00:24:53.760 i'll take that you're

00:24:55.000 okay to do it for minors

00:24:56.340 yes you can legally get

00:24:57.980 hormones under 18

00:24:59.940 how old are you 16 i know

00:25:02.540 my mom has to come in 0.99

00:25:03.640 with me does she have

00:25:04.660 to be in there the whole

00:25:05.860 time like how does that

00:25:07.540 work because i don't know

00:25:08.380 if i'm comfortable with

00:25:09.340 that at some point of the

00:25:11.140 appointment maybe she

00:25:12.140 doesn't have to be in the

00:25:13.820 edamining room with you

00:25:15.000 you said i could do it

00:25:15.980 virtually yeah you can do

00:25:17.520 it virtually so what would

00:25:19.100 that look like so i just

00:25:20.220 talk to a doctor and then

00:25:21.800 they'd be able to prescribe

00:25:24.060 me yeah if it's virtual

00:25:26.160 you'll still meet with the

00:25:28.460 doctor and then go over

00:25:30.500 like all necessary

00:25:31.460 information at the end

00:25:33.180 they will then be

00:25:34.280 prescribing hormones that

00:25:36.220 would then be stripped out

00:25:37.340 to like your local

00:25:38.100 pharmacy i don't need any

00:25:39.560 like therapy or anything

00:25:40.840 first like you don't need

00:25:41.860 any record of that

00:25:42.880 not that i know of i don't

00:25:45.260 need any sort of like

00:25:46.220 records of having gone to

00:25:47.500 therapy or anything like

00:25:48.560 that right yeah so unless

00:25:49.900 you have tricare insurance

00:25:51.380 it would not be required

00:25:52.800 there's nothing that i need

00:25:54.040 before right like i don't

00:25:55.380 need to like have records of

00:25:56.460 meeting with a therapist or

00:25:57.460 anything right because my

00:25:58.460 parents definitely aren't

00:25:59.380 going to let me do that

00:26:00.100 um no i just decided last

00:26:02.560 week and so i kind of want

00:26:03.480 to get in as soon as

00:26:04.980 possible do you have any

00:26:06.040 appointments available soon

00:26:07.680 yeah it depends on the

00:26:09.060 location too but we usually

00:26:10.440 do have availability for um

00:26:13.040 like the next week of

00:26:14.040 whenever you call you think

00:26:15.420 that if i came in went over

00:26:16.960 everything with the doctor

00:26:17.900 and they could send the

00:26:19.020 prescription that day yes i

00:26:20.840 think they should be able to

00:26:22.220 the provider is going to send

00:26:24.020 the prescription to your

00:26:25.660 pharmacy the same day of

00:26:27.240 your appointment oh perfect

00:26:29.240 okay so i can get the

00:26:30.620 hormones the same day

00:26:32.180 some pharmacies do take a

00:26:34.460 little bit to get it

00:26:35.420 together but yeah if not the

00:26:37.340 same day then more than

00:26:38.620 likely the very next day

00:26:40.020 perfect thank you for

00:26:41.440 calling

00:26:41.760 you have a great day

00:26:43.080 i mean you hear that

00:26:45.640 senator and it makes you so

00:26:47.580 angry because what you're

00:26:49.120 hearing is the underworld of

00:26:52.160 hey we don't need parents

00:26:53.960 we don't need parents we

00:26:56.380 don't need doctors we

00:26:57.500 don't need evidence and and

00:26:58.860 by the way the defenders of

00:27:00.480 of this mutilation and then

00:27:01.900 these are also the folks

00:27:02.900 that defend surgeries where

00:27:04.760 you're you're actually

00:27:05.580 physically sterilizing little

00:27:08.280 boys or little girls um the 0.65

00:27:10.480 the defenders of this they

00:27:11.800 say oh it's the result of of

00:27:13.980 of a long you know therapy

00:27:16.600 and a medical condition it's

00:27:18.640 very clear planned

00:27:19.640 parenthood doesn't give a 0.99

00:27:20.620 flip what your medical

00:27:21.880 condition is that's not their

00:27:23.280 business they're in the

00:27:24.240 business of of selling

00:27:26.360 they're in the business of

00:27:27.380 selling abortions which is

00:27:28.540 their main business but

00:27:29.400 they're also in the business

00:27:30.480 of selling sterilizing kids

00:27:33.160 because look cross-sex

00:27:34.940 hormones and that that

00:27:36.040 includes testosterone or

00:27:37.820 estrogen given to the

00:27:38.980 opposite gender uh they're 0.81

00:27:41.040 meant to alter the body to

00:27:43.060 show characteristics of the

00:27:45.760 opposite gender and and and 0.97

00:27:47.780 they can alter the body's

00:27:49.340 natural makeup they can

00:27:50.560 alter the functions of the

00:27:51.580 body but they can also result

00:27:53.860 in in numerous side effects

00:27:56.120 including permanent

00:27:57.460 infertility and and lila

00:27:59.860 rose who who's the president

00:28:01.180 of live action and and and a

00:28:02.760 tremendous warrior standing

00:28:05.100 for life here here's what lila

00:28:06.600 rose said she said that the

00:28:09.000 investigation exposes quote a

00:28:11.140 chilling reality that planned

00:28:13.620 parenthood is fast tracking

00:28:15.540 tracking vulnerable children into

00:28:18.920 irreversible home hormone

00:28:20.920 treatments with almost no

00:28:22.800 medical oversight these

00:28:25.080 dangerous drugs can sterilize

00:28:27.520 stunt growth and leave

00:28:29.900 lifelong scars this is not

00:28:32.060 health care it is child abuse

00:28:34.720 and it must be stopped it

00:28:37.260 really is incredible the last

00:28:38.680 question i have to ask you on

00:28:39.820 this is after this type of

00:28:41.480 information comes out is there

00:28:43.160 any role that congress can play in

00:28:45.760 getting involved now that we see

00:28:47.140 this so clearly absolutely and

00:28:49.980 and and every year planned

00:28:51.260 parenthood gets more than 700

00:28:53.060 million dollars in federal

00:28:54.640 taxpayer dollars that needs to

00:28:56.540 end we need to defund plant

00:28:58.540 parenthood you shouldn't be

00:29:00.380 forced to pay for for for the

00:29:02.780 sterilization of kids you 0.66

00:29:04.260 shouldn't be forced to pay for

00:29:05.780 abortions all all over the

00:29:07.120 country and and so i hope we will

00:29:09.620 see leadership in congress i'm

00:29:11.080 certainly fighting to defund

00:29:12.280 planned parenthood and i hope we

00:29:13.540 get it done this year right now
