dot com. Joe Biden is
0:29
not known for his consistency. Over
0:31
the years, Joe has changed his
0:33
views on just about every issue
0:35
under the sun, from crime to
0:37
abortion, to foreign policy, to marriage,
0:40
to pretty much everything else. Unprincipled
0:43
politicians such as Joe Biden,
0:45
sometimes refer to this kind
0:47
of flip flopping as evolving.
0:50
And now it seems Joe Biden
0:53
has evolved into
0:54
a Puerto Rican.
0:56
I was sort of raised in
0:59
the Puerto Rican community at home politically.
1:02
And so we and we came here for a long time
1:05
both for business and pleasures.
1:07
Richard Lavin is a woman.
1:10
Elizabeth Warren is an Indian. Joe
1:13
Biden is a Puerto Rican.
1:15
And I'm Michael Knowles, and this is the Michael
1:18
Knowles show.
1:26
Welcome back to the show. You know, it's amazing,
1:28
just I was gonna say I'm the only one who's remained consistent
1:31
here. Everyone else is turning into something.
1:33
But that's not true. Last night, I actually was Candice
1:35
Owens. because Candace was supposed
1:37
to give a speech at the University of Delaware.
1:39
And instead, she flew to Paris
1:42
to set
1:44
the Internet on fire with Kanye West.
1:46
And so I I actually okay. Joe Biden's a Puerto
1:48
Rican, Liz Warren's an Indian. I'm Candice
1:50
Owens. My favorite comment yesterday is from
1:52
David McCalister who says, I'm
1:55
so glad YouTube added abortion
1:57
context to this video. Otherwise,
1:59
I would have just kept believing it was doctors killing
2:02
defense babies for profit. I
2:04
I actually had a few other people write into me
2:06
about this. So in my episode yesterday,
2:09
which touched on a ton of subjects, Though
2:11
it did mention abortion and
2:13
AOC's stupid commentary on abortion,
2:16
YouTube added a a warning,
2:18
a sort of a context warning and
2:20
it just shows you that
2:22
COVID was not a unique emergency
2:25
that required extraordinary measures
2:28
COVID was a test run for all
2:30
new sorts of power grabs by the left.
2:32
Because during COVID, the Lib
2:34
said, well, we need to add warnings
2:36
about medical misinformation and
2:39
the masks and the social distancing and
2:41
the vaccines. And so they would add these
2:43
little these little context bubbles
2:45
to our videos to basically just
2:47
push the liberal line on COVID and
2:50
and discourage people from listening to
2:52
different points of view. But now now
2:54
COVID's over and they're doing it on topics
2:57
that are completely unrelated to COVID. Now they're
2:59
doing it on abortion. So I come out and I yeah, AOC
3:01
said a dumb thing about abortion. They say, abortion
3:03
actually is really great and you shouldn't have any
3:05
questions about it. It's a it's a perfectly
3:07
fine medical procedure and okay. Right. They're gonna
3:09
do gonna do it with any anytime anyone criticizes
3:12
Joe Biden pretty soon. Actually Joe Biden's
3:14
a really great guy and you should not you should
3:16
stop insulting him. That's not nice. It's crazy.
3:19
It may it gets my blood pressure up.
3:21
I don't think that
3:23
people believe that Joe Biden is a
3:25
Puerto Rican. I don't
3:27
think I don't think people
3:29
believe Joe Biden, period.
3:32
I think Joe Biden is
3:35
not persuasive. And I think
3:37
the reason that he and and all the
3:39
other lips are not really persuasive is
3:42
because they keep being proven
3:44
wrong. It's
3:45
the fool me one shame on you,
3:48
fool me twice, shame on me, or as
3:50
George W. Bush put it, fool me twice.
3:52
The point is you're not gonna fool me again. And
3:55
with the lips, it's fool me three times, fool me, four
3:57
times, fool me five times, COVID
4:00
certainly accelerated that trend. And
4:02
so it's just it's
4:04
not persuasive, especially when you
4:07
compare Biden and the Democrats with
4:09
the political alternative. You
4:11
wanna talk about persuasive, you wanna talk about
4:13
in charge. Ron DeSantis down
4:15
there in Florida in the
4:17
wake of this horrible hurricane that
4:19
destroyed so much of Florida, killed a lot of
4:21
people, destroyed a lot of property. CNN
4:24
is using this as an opportunity to
4:26
really grill the governor and make it
4:28
seem like he's not competent that this is
4:30
somehow his fault, which of course is absurd.
4:33
Listen to how Rhonda Santos knocks
4:35
the CNN reporter down.
4:37
Why do you stand behind Lee County's
4:39
decision to not have that mandatory
4:41
evacuation until the
4:42
day before the storm? Well, did
4:44
you where was your industry stationed
4:46
when the storm hit? Were you guys in
4:48
Lee County? No. You were in Tampa.
4:50
So that's here. They were following the weather
4:52
track. and they had to make
4:54
decisions based on that. But, you know, seventy
4:56
two hours, they weren't even in the cone, forty
4:58
eight hours, they were on the periphery. so you
5:00
gotta make the decisions the best you can.
5:02
I will say, you know, they delivered
5:04
the message to people. They had shelters
5:06
open. You know, everybody had adequate
5:09
opportunity to at least get to a shelter within the
5:11
county. But, you know, a lot of the residents
5:13
did not did not want to do that. I think,
5:15
for probably for various reasons, some people don't
5:17
wanna leave their home period, their island people, whatever.
5:19
But I think part of it was so much attention
5:21
was paid to Tampa that I think a
5:23
lot of them probably thought that they wouldn't get the
5:25
worst of it. So, you know, they but they
5:27
did. And and I think it's it's easy to second
5:29
guess them, but they were ready for the whole time
5:31
and and and made that call when when
5:33
they were justifiable to do so. By
5:35
the
5:35
way, this goes on for about another minute,
5:37
and DeSantis goes, he's just citing
5:40
facts. He's citing hour by
5:42
hour weather trends. He's pointing
5:44
out that CNN also thought that
5:46
the storm was gonna move in a particular way. And
5:48
then after the storm shifted, then Florida
5:50
shifted resources down. And so you just
5:52
you leave that conversation
5:55
with the impression. This
5:57
guy knows what he's doing.
6:00
Okay. If if they had asked a Joe Biden, that
6:02
question, what would he have done? He would have
6:04
started drooling. He would have started
6:06
talking about corn pop in the Delaware public
6:08
pool. He would it's
6:10
it's not you can't even compare the two. It's not that that
6:13
Joe Biden might not have been able to cite all of
6:15
those facts. Joe Biden wouldn't have known what state
6:17
he was in. And so when people are comparing
6:19
Republican leadership right now, to Democrat
6:21
leadership, It it doesn't
6:23
take a a political nerd. You
6:25
know, someone following all the trends to see.
6:27
Oh, the Republicans basically have their
6:29
act together. the Democrats have no idea what's going
6:31
on. You can see this. There was a video that went viral
6:33
yesterday of a guy who, I don't
6:35
think he's a political consultant, I
6:38
don't think that this is a guy who's
6:40
constantly keeping up refreshing the page on
6:42
real clear politics every day. He's a
6:44
regular Florida citizen who says,
6:46
look, I'm a Democrat. I've always considered
6:49
myself a Democrat. But DeSantis seems
6:51
so competent. I'm voting for that guy.
6:53
That gas is yeah. Yeah. I gave
6:56
you. He yeah. I told him I'd arrest y'all,
6:58
but he's here and I gave you. So y'all
7:00
we vote for. Yeah. This is
7:02
all about rescue my I'm vote for
7:04
the Senate. And I'm a Democrat.
7:06
Yeah. We ought to call him when oh
7:11
well
7:14
There's just a real
7:16
persuasive aspect to
7:18
competence, to
7:20
just a basic degree of competence. We
7:22
tend to think of politics as this ideological
7:25
struggle between the leftist and
7:27
the conservatives and the Marxists
7:30
and the fascists and the
7:32
desists and the but for a
7:34
lot of people, politics comes down to,
7:36
hey, are you gonna show up? Can
7:38
you just like show up when bad stuff
7:40
happens and try to make it better? Hey,
7:42
can you reduce crime in my neighborhood?
7:45
hey, can you keep the economy kind of
7:47
going along? Hey, can you fill
7:49
my potholes? Fill my potholes?
7:52
is a really important political
7:56
tactic. Okay? Fill
7:58
my potholes goes a long,
7:59
long way. And
8:02
and DeSantis is doing it. He's doing it on
8:04
every single level. You even heard in that
8:06
clip DeSantis, he said, you know, there
8:08
are misleading narratives you
8:10
guys are you guys are pushing misleading
8:13
narratives. And I I've noticed that Ron
8:15
DeSantis, I don't know if it was in that specific, but
8:17
it was it was certainly in the CNN interview.
8:19
and he keeps coming back to his misleading narratives.
8:21
Why? Because misleading narratives is the
8:23
Ron DeSantis version of fake
8:25
news. Right? Donald Trump says you're
8:27
fake news. Ron DeSantis is saying the exact
8:29
same thing, but he uses a synonym because he
8:31
doesn't wanna just be seen as a copycat of
8:33
Trump. He wants he he adopts a lot
8:35
of Trump's characteristics
8:38
and habits. He uses the Trump
8:40
hands, the sort of like New York Italian
8:42
hands, really. But he uses the Trump hands. He
8:44
uses some of the Trump diction
8:46
and and cadence, but he
8:49
changes it. He makes it his own. And that I
8:51
think that competence goes a long way,
8:53
especially if if DeSantis
8:55
does choose to run, in
8:57
twenty twenty four, presidents
9:00
tend to be the opposite
9:02
of their predecessors. Right?
9:04
You you think
9:06
of George
9:08
w Bush. Go go all the way back
9:10
to George w Bush. Bill Clinton
9:12
is marked by this kind of
9:14
liberal, skisy, you
9:17
know, completely iralicious, immoral
9:19
White House full of scandal.
9:21
and then George W. Bush, whatever you think of
9:23
the guy. He's he's pretty upright man.
9:26
Born again Christian, you know,
9:28
there's there's no no sex scandals
9:30
coming out of the George W. Bush,
9:32
White House. Then after Bush, what do
9:34
we get? We get Barack Obama. So
9:36
the Bush is old,
9:38
white establishment, vaguely
9:41
conservative, Barack
9:43
Obama young, fresh,
9:45
newcomer, leftist, first black
9:47
president. Then when do you get after Obama?
9:49
After Obama who's this young,
9:51
fresh, radical, we're gonna fundamentally
9:53
transform America. We hate the old America.
9:55
Obama's wife says the first time I was ever proud of my country
9:57
was when it elected my husband. What happens? You get
9:59
Donald Trump who says, now, we're bringing back the
10:01
old America. Make America great again.
10:04
Right? Donald Trump, this older guy,
10:06
kinda more old school, right
10:08
wing style. Then after Trump,
10:10
who was relatively pretty effective,
10:13
actually, even in just one German office, even with the
10:15
deep state trying to undermine him. What
10:17
do you get? You get? And this guy who's
10:19
a total populous, Bolen of China
10:21
shop upending the establishment. What do you get? You
10:23
get the most establishment boring
10:25
guy in the entire world, Joe Biden.
10:27
So what comes after Biden? Maybe
10:29
you get Trump again? But
10:32
DeSantis is putting himself in a position where
10:34
he could be a
10:36
good alternative. There's no question about
10:38
it. and it's not just DeSantis, by the
10:40
way. You're seeing Republicans
10:42
around the country who are showing this kind
10:44
of energy and clarity competence. Carrie
10:46
Lake, we haven't gotten to talk about her very
10:48
much on this show, but we absolutely should
10:50
Carrie Lake running for governor of Arizona.
10:53
Listen to how adeptly SHE
10:55
FENDS OFF A REPORTER'S DISHONEST
10:58
RADICULOUS QUESTION ON ABORTION. Adrienne:
11:00
ABORTION IS ADCEPTIVE lay
11:02
bands in the state right now.
11:04
Tell me, do you is that something that you support?
11:06
I support saving as many lives
11:08
as possible. and what I really wanna know and I've
11:10
been waiting. I tune into you guys all the
11:12
time. I wanna know where Katie Hobbs stands, but I
11:14
never hear you guys ask for I'm
11:16
pro life. My plan would
11:18
be that every woman who
11:20
walks into an abortion clinic know that
11:22
there are options out there. They don't have to
11:24
choose that here. there's families who would love
11:26
to adopt a baby. And right now, the way it's
11:28
been going,
11:29
they go in and they they only have one option.
11:31
That's it. Nobody tells them that there's
11:33
other options. We wanna help
11:35
our women. If they're afraid, we wanna help them.
11:37
We wanna give women healthcare, and I
11:39
wanna help people. But I really challenge
11:41
you. And I'm happy to get back to you on this.
11:43
When you find out where Katie Hobbs stands, because let me tell you
11:45
where she stands. She supports
11:48
abortion right up until birth and now we have
11:50
her. That's right. She supports a
11:52
baby survives a botched
11:54
abortion, that that baby die
11:56
on a cold metal
11:57
tray. True. And none of
11:59
you
11:59
ever try to get her to talk about her stance.
12:02
So
12:02
get back to me after you do. Thank
12:04
you. Tell her. fabulous.
12:07
Exactly how it's done.
12:10
Okay? Carrie Lake obviously
12:12
is on the right side of the issue. She's on the
12:14
pro life side of the issue. but it's not
12:16
just about ideology or political
12:19
views or or policies
12:21
even. There is a
12:23
role for just a basic political
12:25
confidence. And we kind of forget this because we're living
12:27
in the Biden era, but this woman
12:29
expertly flipped this
12:31
question back on the reporter. this is dishonest
12:34
question. Said, hold on. What you're pushing me on all this
12:36
ridiculous kind of these these
12:38
cases that barely ever happen, that you're
12:40
framing the issue from this ridiculous place.
12:42
Why don't you ever ask my opponent? I'll tell you what she thinks
12:44
she wants to let babies born alive die
12:47
in in cold metal trays. That's the
12:49
way to do it. And after such
12:51
dysfunction and incompetence for the
12:53
past couple of years now. I
12:55
think voters are hungry
12:57
for people who can actually do
12:59
the job. or not don't just have the right
13:01
opinions, but the opinions that they prefer that can
13:03
actually do a
13:05
job. as
13:07
the elites prove themselves to be
13:10
incompetent. People begin
13:12
to look elsewhere. People
13:15
begin to doubt the authority of
13:17
these elites look no further than
13:19
the Federal Bench. Federal
13:22
Judge James Caho,
13:25
who is on the fifth Circuit Court of
13:27
Appeals, has just said that he
13:29
will no longer hire law
13:31
clerks from Yale Law School. He's
13:34
right to do it. He says that Yale Law School
13:37
is not what it once was.
13:39
He says Yale not
13:41
only tolerates the cancellation of
13:43
views, it actively practices
13:45
it. Starting today, I will no
13:47
longer hire law clerks from
13:49
Yale Los school I hope that other judges will
13:51
join me as well.
13:54
He's smart he's smart to say
13:56
that. some people are complaining.
13:58
Well, what about the good kids at Yale Law
14:00
School? Yeah, maybe. But
14:02
Yale Law School is considered the top school in
14:04
the country. yell law
14:06
school sends all of its
14:08
students out to extremely prestigious
14:10
posts. If you have Yale law school
14:12
on your resume, you you can pretty much
14:14
go wherever you want. Why?
14:17
Well, because of the prestige and
14:19
the tradition and it goes
14:21
along with that name.
14:23
by but
14:23
does a Yale Law School degree
14:26
today represent
14:28
what it used to represent
14:30
ten twenty, thirty, forty
14:32
years ago? No,
14:34
I don't think it does. The caliber
14:36
of students who are coming out of Yale Law
14:38
School is is inferior today
14:40
than it was twenty, thirty,
14:43
forty years ago. The things
14:45
that they're being taught at Yale Law
14:47
School are inferior
14:49
to they're less true. They're
14:51
less good than the things that they were taught twenty,
14:53
thirty, forty years ago. And so if
14:55
you're a a judge hiring clerks, I think
14:57
it's perfectly rational to say, you know, look,
14:59
I know this place has a good reputation. I know it's
15:01
been the top of the heap for many years
15:03
now, but It's just decayed.
15:05
Okay? And the lips have gone
15:07
in. They've cut it open. They've emptied
15:09
out the the body of Yale Law
15:11
School like that month's in the first
15:13
scene of the empire strikes back. Right? They've just
15:15
taken the guts out of Yale law school. And then they've
15:17
crawled inside of Yale law school and
15:19
animated it like night of the living dead.
15:22
and they kind of hobble around in it, but it's
15:24
not it's not actually what it once was.
15:26
And so I'm gonna stop giving it this
15:28
special privilege if we always hire the
15:30
YLS people And I'm gonna start looking around
15:32
to other law schools. Of course.
15:34
And it's not just about Walklar because it's
15:36
not just about Yale. It
15:38
used to be Again, ten,
15:40
twenty, thirty, forty years ago,
15:42
that if if you had
15:45
Harvard Yale Princeton, Stanford,
15:48
these big fancy schools on your
15:50
resume. That really meant something and employers
15:52
really looked for that. Is that
15:54
still true today? I'm not
15:56
so sure. Certainly,
15:58
if I were hiring people, I
16:00
would, you know, maybe I'd say, okay, maybe that means you
16:02
got a decent SAT score. No. Maybe
16:04
it doesn't. I'm not even sure. I mean, the schools
16:06
for a while weren't even looking at SATs.
16:09
And we're not even giving
16:11
high priority SED. So it's III don't even know
16:13
that it means you got a basic level of kind of
16:15
intelligence. Forget about if you know
16:17
anything or have the right the right
16:19
opinions or you know, I have the right values
16:21
or anything like that. But
16:23
does it does it mean anything anymore? I
16:25
don't know. If I got a resume today from
16:27
a kid from Hillsdale and a kid from Princeton,
16:29
I'm probably going
16:31
to just immediately suspect that
16:33
the kid from Hillsdale is better
16:36
educated than the kid from Princeton.
16:38
The from Princeton could surprise me. But
16:40
this would be an unthinkable opinion
16:42
twenty years ago. But it's just
16:44
the the the the authorities,
16:46
the elites, can't coast on
16:48
their reputation forever after they
16:50
have done their dam burst
16:52
to destroy that credibility and to
16:54
destroy that reputation. The
16:57
clearest example of this is COVID. But
17:00
before COVID, I
17:03
generally believed what the public
17:05
health authorities said, not a hundred percent, but
17:08
I I thought, okay, they probably know more about
17:10
epidemics and stuff than I
17:12
do. So, I guess, I'll generally follow their advice.
17:14
I'll generally believe what they think.
17:16
Whether they're talking about vaccines,
17:19
whether they're talking about epidemics
17:22
that come around. I think I don't know anything
17:24
about it. I guess they probably do so I'll believe
17:26
them. After COVID, I don't believe a word they
17:28
say. After COVID, if doctor Fauci came up
17:30
to me, and said, we've got an
17:32
epidemic coming, and you all need to take this
17:34
shot. And then I had an African shaman,
17:36
which doctor come to me and say, actually, we
17:38
just need to boil three
17:40
kidneys of goat and the eye of newt, and
17:42
then then the pandemic will
17:44
pass. I will believe the African witch
17:46
doctor shaman. I think he's got more medical
17:48
credibility than doctor Fauci. after
17:50
these people in our public health
17:52
establishment have lied to us and
17:54
intentionally deceived us
17:56
and Furthermore, when they weren't intentionally
17:58
deceiving us, just more completely
18:01
incompetent and made stupid errors and got
18:03
things wrong. going all the way back to
18:05
the origin of the virus by the
18:07
way. So they've
18:09
they've squandered their credibility. They keep they
18:11
continue to squander it by the way. whether I don't know
18:13
if you caught this doozy of a headline.
18:16
So, there's a new
18:18
new report out, new scientific medical
18:20
report an mRNA
18:23
spike protein has
18:25
been detected in the
18:27
brain and the heart of
18:29
a me dead man. This
18:31
is a case report published in vaccines,
18:33
which is a really top well
18:35
respected journal. Quote, quoting
18:38
from the report, the findings corroborate previous
18:41
reports of encephalitis and
18:44
myocarditis caused by gene based
18:46
COVID-nineteen vaccines. So,
18:48
what do we take away from this? One,
18:50
the vaccines cause myocarditis.
18:52
We already knew that. Well, initially, we were
18:54
told that's horrible scientific misinformation. It
18:56
was a big big banner warning
18:59
every time you would talk about this on the video, sometimes they
19:01
would take my shows down for saying things like
19:03
this. This is probably gonna put a banner
19:05
on YouTube right now. But nevertheless,
19:07
The CDC now admits that the COVID vaccines
19:09
do cause in some cases, at least,
19:12
myocarditis. Apparently, they cause encephalitis
19:14
as well. So problems not just with
19:16
the heart but with the brain. But
19:18
we were also told
19:20
that the spike proteins remained
19:23
localized. We were also told the way mRNA
19:25
vaccines work is they go in and you
19:27
get this little shot and then your
19:29
body produces spike proteins
19:31
kind of mimic the COVID virus, and this is supposed to
19:33
give you an immunity to the virus. And
19:36
it's actually supposed to stop you from getting the
19:38
virus, which is what Biden and
19:40
Fauci and Walensky, the CDC director all
19:42
told us, and then that didn't happen at
19:44
all. So then they had to change their story entirely.
19:46
anyway, that was the theory of what it was going to do. But they
19:48
said, don't worry, these spike proteins that are
19:51
being produced. They're not gonna go all over your body.
19:53
They're not gonna end up in your ovaries. They're not gonna
19:55
end up brain. They're not gonna end up in your heart. They're just gonna stay where they're
19:57
supposed to stay. And at the time, I
19:59
said that's obviously BS. They're completely
20:01
lying to us. And they said, no, that's medical
20:03
misinformation. Well, here it is. Here it
20:05
is. They found the spike protein there. They didn't
20:07
find any other part of the COVID virus, though, you
20:09
can't blame it on the virus. They said no, we found the
20:11
spike protein from the vaccine.
20:13
in this dead brain and heart three weeks after
20:15
he got the shot.
20:18
So we were
20:20
right. We were right. You know I
20:22
hate to say I told you so. And it's not
20:24
just that I told you so. You told lots of other
20:26
people so as well. We
20:28
were right. And yet, and
20:31
this gets back to what we were talking about a little bit
20:33
yesterday. Nothing's gonna
20:35
happen to the Fauci's and the Walenski's and and
20:37
big pharma, especially nothing's gonna happen.
20:39
These guys are totally protected. Nothing's gonna
20:41
happen to the big tech social
20:44
media oligarchs who censored all of this
20:46
true information a year
20:48
ago. Nothing's gonna happen to the
20:50
politicians who downplayed these
20:52
risks. Nothing is gonna happen. They're completely
20:55
protected. Legally, politically,
20:58
too bad because they've got the power.
21:00
And now not only do they have the power to mandate these
21:02
kinds of shots, in a lot
21:04
of cases, still even after courts have struck
21:06
it down, not only do the the power
21:10
to encourage people through the
21:12
culture to take all these shots even if they don't
21:14
necessarily need the shots. They have
21:16
the culture to censor the
21:18
information. And and they they have the
21:20
power
21:20
to
21:21
erase some information at least or
21:23
make it much harder to find information that
21:25
was previously out there. They can they can rewrite
21:27
all the records, you know. It is I know the
21:29
word Orwellian is overused, but it
21:32
is Orwellian. they can rewrite the records, they
21:34
can retcon the past. We
21:36
were totally right though. Don't forget
21:38
that. And speaking of being right, I've gotten
21:40
a lot of flack. I've gotten a lot of flack from a
21:42
lot of quarters since the beginning of the war
21:44
in Ukraine because I
21:47
have refused to
21:49
approach the issue of the war in Ukraine
21:51
as a kind of simplistic moral
21:53
crusade. With the clear good guy and the
21:55
clear bad guy and it's so totally
21:57
clear. Even if they were a clear good guy and a clear
21:59
bad guy, it's so totally clear exactly
22:01
what we should do in this war. I my
22:03
opinion on the war in Ukraine, I've gotten flack from the
22:05
people who have the Ukraine flag in their bios
22:07
because they think I'm not sufficiently pro
22:09
Ukraine. And then I've gotten flack from the
22:11
people who are fairly chinarian who were
22:13
actually supporting Russia in the war. And they're saying
22:15
Michael, you're you're you're a shield for the
22:18
decadent west because you're you're you're
22:20
two pro Ukraine. I don't know. I'm
22:22
too pro Ukraine. I'm not pro Ukraine enough. But you know what my
22:24
opinion has been on the war from the beginning.
22:26
This is my shocking hot
22:28
take. complicated.
22:30
That's my opinion. It's got it
22:33
didn't it didn't start six months ago or
22:35
eight months ago. It
22:37
at the very least started eight years ago
22:41
when there was a color
22:43
revolution, when there it it it called the
22:45
Midan revolution. in Ukraine that
22:47
ousted a pro Ukrainian
22:49
leader and installed a more pro western
22:51
leader, and we know that there was American
22:53
support for this kind of thing, and we know
22:55
that that CIA officials, including the top dog at the
22:57
CIA landed in Ukraine not that long
22:59
after that occurred. And, okay, that's
23:01
fine. All sorts of big
23:03
powerful countries interfere
23:05
in the affairs of all sorts of nations and pursue
23:07
their own interests. Of course, that's what happens.
23:09
But we do know that Russia saw that as
23:11
a provocation. We Russia saw the expansion of
23:13
NATO as a provocation. And so
23:15
Russia used that as an opportunity to do
23:17
what it had wanted to do for a while and exert more
23:19
influence over Ukraine. And so that
23:21
was a situation that America and the West could
23:23
not tolerate. And so you've had this
23:25
steadily escalating war. So
23:27
Well, everyone's been yelling at me because I'm not
23:30
sufficiently simplistic about my
23:32
view of this work. Turns out Elon Musk
23:34
agrees with me. His Elon Musk just tweeted out,
23:36
quote, Ukraine Russia peace,
23:38
redo elections of annexed regions under UN
23:41
supervision, Russia leaves if that is the will of the
23:43
people, Crimea formally part of Russia
23:45
as it had been since seventeen eighty three until cruise
23:47
ship's mistake, water supply to
23:49
Crimea assured Ukraine remains
23:51
neutral. That is almost exactly what I
23:53
have suggested. from the beginning of this
23:55
war or it certainly
23:57
certainly before the war
23:59
even broke out as a as a sort of way to
24:01
maybe stave off a war. That
24:04
has been largely
24:06
speaking my view. And
24:08
the end now you've
24:10
got Elon Musk, who everybody seems to love.
24:12
He's got exactly the same view, and
24:15
the reaction from
24:17
some prominent Ukrainians has
24:19
not been so nice. Now, do you want win a
24:21
McLaren or quarter million dollars in
24:23
cash? I'm talking to all the dads
24:25
right now as a father. We all want what's best
24:27
for our children and their education. That's
24:29
why we sometimes speak grudgingly, but still
24:32
enthusiastically, participate in school
24:34
fundraisers. From buying magazines to
24:36
baking cookies to paying a bunch of kids,
24:39
to half wash our vehicles at the team car wash? Well,
24:41
what if you could spearhead the biggest fundraiser
24:43
in your school and community's history with
24:46
less effort than a walkathon?
24:48
By now, you have heard of Jeremy's razors
24:51
contest for the car where you might
24:53
become the winner of Jeremy's McLaren.
24:55
Now, sure, you could a five ninety two
24:57
horsepower super roar to your school's bus
24:59
fleet, or you could opt
25:01
for the quarter million dollar
25:03
cash prize instead. You and
25:06
all the other dads and moms could do a lot
25:08
of good for your kids with that money just
25:10
by reviewing a few referring
25:12
rather a few non woke
25:14
razors. Imagine a quarter million dollars to
25:16
resurface the gym, build a computer
25:18
room, put up some Friday night lights.
25:20
Right now, most of the top players in the
25:22
contest still have not hit the ten referrals
25:24
mark, So the field is
25:26
wide open for you to win it all. Go
25:28
to the principal's office. Get him or her involved.
25:30
Just head to jeremy's razors dot
25:32
com slash play to get your referral
25:35
link and get in the
25:37
game. Elon
25:40
Musk
25:41
proposes a solution.
25:44
on the Ukraine conflict. And
25:46
it's a solution that would not make Ukraine
25:48
totally happy, would not make Russia
25:51
totally happy, but it's a
25:53
solution that he says is
25:55
probably the most likely resolution to it
25:57
anyway and will would
25:59
in
25:59
fact deescalate the war, which is which
26:02
is just steadily increasing
26:04
toward now. We've got people in the press trying
26:06
to normalize the prospect of tactical
26:08
nuclear weapons being used. So Elon puts
26:10
out a suggestion that I think is
26:13
extremely moderate and reasonable.
26:16
This this guy named Erestovitch.
26:19
Erestovitch, who's a blue check on Twitter, and
26:21
he's a retired Ukrainian
26:24
colonial and intelligence
26:27
officer, and he he tweets
26:29
out a picture of
26:31
a guy being tortured. I think it was
26:33
probably a Russian soldier or something. He's
26:35
he's plugged in. He's he's handcuffed. He's
26:37
got some wires all around him
26:39
sitting in small chair, and it's it's Elon
26:42
Musk's face, superimposed on this
26:44
poor guy being held prisoner.
26:46
and then it just says, we work
26:49
promptly. That's that's
26:51
the translation. We work promptly. So it's a
26:54
threat. against Elon
26:56
Musk saying, we're gonna arrest you and probably
26:58
torture you if you suggest any
27:01
kind of moderate resolution to this war,
27:03
which is not great. That's
27:05
not the kind of behavior you want to see
27:07
from our allies, the people that we're
27:09
funding. You don't want them to threaten to
27:11
arrest and torture our citizens. Okay?
27:13
especially someone like Elon Musk who has helped Ukraine, who
27:15
has given lots and millions and millions
27:17
of dollars worth of StarLink
27:20
equipment, to the
27:22
Ukrainians to help fight this war.
27:24
Kind of complicates the picture of this
27:27
war. But more importantly than that, I don't,
27:29
you know, I'm not I'm not even paying particularly
27:31
close attention to the war in Ukraine,
27:33
which despite really bubbling up in the
27:35
press and accelerating in recent months, has been
27:37
going on for years now. and there's
27:39
been some kind of conflict between Ukraine and Russia
27:41
for about a thousand years now. So I I'm not
27:43
paying granular attention to
27:45
it. However, I
27:48
have to I wish I had my nostradamus
27:50
hat in my desk right now. We
27:52
were talking about this, what yesterday?
27:54
And two days ago,
27:56
the idea that corporations
27:59
now can
28:01
wage war.
28:03
Ian Bremer, very well respected
28:05
foreign policy writer. He said that
28:08
specifically with regard to the war in Ukraine,
28:10
corporations are becoming literal
28:12
belligerence in the war.
28:15
Google, but he gigantic corporations
28:17
can play a role in the war. And
28:19
he he referred to Elon Musk specifically.
28:21
But then the the hazard here, of course, is
28:23
that If corporations and CEOs
28:25
can become literal belligerence in the war,
28:27
then they become literal targets
28:29
in the war. just as
28:32
this Ukrainian military blue check dude
28:35
proved because he says, yeah, you're a target
28:37
Elon Musk. we're gonna arrest you you
28:39
keep suggesting that we wind this word down right
28:42
now along lines that we don't
28:44
favor or that I don't favor. That's
28:48
what he's saying. He's saying your you corporations are
28:50
gonna become a target. So what do we do
28:52
then? What do we do then if the
28:54
corporations can literally wage
28:56
the war? become the targets of the
28:58
war, hard military
29:00
targets. China's looking at American
29:03
Americans as soft and hard military American
29:05
corporations has hard and soft military targets
29:08
too. What does that mean? And if the
29:10
corporations can make the
29:12
policies about the war, and if the corporations
29:14
can censor people will a nilly as they've
29:16
censored this show very often in the
29:18
public square. What does that mean? It means the
29:20
corporations are the government. That's
29:23
what it means. It means privatized ourselves all
29:25
the way out of self government.
29:29
And it wasn't just the Liberals that did that. It was
29:31
the conservatives who did that too.
29:33
And conservatives did that with some good reason. In
29:35
the latter part of the twentieth century, the
29:37
conservatives wanted to to revive
29:40
the economy, that conservatives wanted to
29:42
draw a clear distinction between us and the
29:44
west and the communists and the Soviet
29:46
Union. And so we we
29:48
moved to toward an intense
29:50
campaign of privatization. Well,
29:52
that's all well and good. But if you
29:54
privatize too much, well, then you've
29:56
just privatized away your whole government.
29:58
And now you've got people who are even who
30:01
are frankly just as bureaucratic as the
30:03
deep state. We we only talk about the
30:05
bureaucracy of the government. We never have you ever
30:07
tried to call and change your cell phone plan, do you call AT
30:09
and T or Verizon or something? I'd rather deal
30:11
with the DMV than I would deal with
30:13
AT and T and Verizon. But those are
30:15
private companies. We're about the airlines. So in all,
30:17
those are those are private companies. What about I
30:19
don't know. Even just Walmart
30:21
or something. You know, you you call these
30:24
companies. You end up in this business oh my gosh,
30:26
a bank Oh, calling the bat, it's the that's the worst
30:28
bureaucracy I've ever dealt with. That's
30:30
way worse than the DMV. So it's not as
30:32
though bureaucracy is just
30:34
a problem with the government. It's problem with privatization too.
30:36
The only difference is that a lot of times
30:38
when you give your government away at the corporations,
30:40
the corporations are even less accountable to
30:42
you than Washington is. and
30:44
that's damning with faint praise because Washington's barely accountable
30:46
at all. But that be So
30:49
then where is the line? Where
30:51
do you draw the line? Again, it goes back
30:53
to my unsatisfying answer on the
30:55
Ukraine war, and Elon Musk's
30:58
identical unsatisfying answer on
31:00
the Ukraine war. But it's -- but it's -- it's -- it
31:02
is the normal response. I think it's the
31:04
response that the vast majority of people would
31:06
understand. If they're not
31:08
political eggheads who are refreshing
31:10
the crazy political blogs all day long. They would realize that
31:12
we need prudence. Yeah. How
31:14
do you decide the the limits
31:17
between the government
31:19
and the private sector and the limits to
31:21
privatization. How do you decide prudence?
31:23
You you you be reasonable.
31:25
Be normal. That's how you decide. How
31:27
do we decide exactly how to resolve this war
31:29
in Ukraine? Oh, the first major war in Europe
31:31
since World War two, a war that has already
31:34
had threats on both sides to
31:36
go nuclear How do you
31:38
resolve that? Delicately and carefully and you use your prudence
31:40
and you'd be normal. Goodness gracious
31:42
me. Goodness gracious me. Idiologues are gonna
31:44
have a lot of trouble with that answer.
31:46
But that's that's what you do. Of course, that's what
31:49
you do. Speaking of private interests
31:51
taking over our government, another
31:53
told you some moment, Here's
31:56
a report out now that
31:58
the labs worked with
32:00
the feds through
32:04
state backed, but still technically
32:06
kind of private means to rig the
32:08
election. As we've said for a long time,
32:11
probably gonna be another warning banner because I said that.
32:13
This this episode today is gonna have, what, like,
32:15
seven warning banners under it on YouTube. I don't
32:17
know if they have the the technological
32:19
infrastructure to put that many warning banners. This
32:22
report just came out. There's a coalition
32:25
of NGOs and sort
32:27
of non profit organizations and
32:29
academic institutions and a private
32:31
company that worked with arms of
32:33
the federal government. and with
32:35
Democrat activist organizations, to
32:38
censor news websites in the run
32:40
up to twenty twenty. They
32:42
also plan to do that again in twenty twenty
32:45
two. How did they do it? Do you
32:47
think they censored the lids just the same as
32:49
they censored the conservatives? Of
32:51
course not. They all teamed up the
32:53
government and the
32:55
academy and private business and
32:57
the nonprofit organizations that are usually
32:59
just the enforcement wing of the American Liberal
33:02
Empire, they all teamed up
33:04
to rigged the election against the
33:06
conservatives. Great report by Alembicari
33:09
in Alan Baccari. I don't know why I called him. I actually really liked
33:11
the guy. He's a friend of mine. But Alan Baccari
33:14
the had a has
33:15
a great report. I suggest you read it at Breifort.
33:18
It's called the Election Integrity
33:21
Partnership. And this is made up
33:23
of the Stanford Internet Observatory
33:25
the University of Washington Center for an informed public, the
33:28
Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research
33:30
Lab, and Graphica, a
33:32
social media analytics company. And then it
33:34
teams up with things like common cause in the
33:36
NAACP, which are really just front groups
33:38
for the Democrat Party, teamed
33:40
up with the Department of Homeland Security the State Department. The whole
33:42
point of it was to
33:44
censor conservatives on Twitter and
33:46
to censor conservatives on Facebook and Google and
33:48
just the whole social media platform.
33:50
we're talking about the New York Post,
33:52
epoch times, Charlie Kirk, Tom Fit, and
33:54
Jack Pacific was with last night.
33:57
Mark Levin James O'Keefe, Sean
33:59
Hannity, and let's go on and on and on.
34:01
Donald Trump, Eric Trump, Donald
34:03
Trump Junior, and they and they flagged these
34:05
posts. And sometimes they delete the posts, and sometimes
34:07
they just put a little warning label on it. According to this
34:09
report that came out, the EIP, the
34:11
election integrity project,
34:14
which is just the sensor of
34:16
the conservatives project, was pretty successful. In
34:18
twenty one percent of cases, one
34:21
percent of cases the the social
34:23
media platforms labeled content identified by this group
34:25
as potentially misleading and they flagged it.
34:27
You gotta really watch out
34:30
for this. Then in thirteen percent of cases, they just remove the content from the
34:32
platforms. It's very, very
34:34
successful stuff.
34:37
Who elected these people? Who elected common cause
34:39
and the NAACP and the Stanford
34:42
Group? And who I didn't elect these people?
34:44
Who elected Mark Zuckerberg? who
34:46
elected Jack Dorsey,
34:48
who elected Google. No,
34:51
nobody. But this
34:53
is the way our government is run now. They just don't call it
34:55
a government. But if my rights are being taken away,
34:58
if my traditions and my way of life is
35:00
being taken away, by some
35:02
woke, unholy alliance of
35:04
corporations and nonprofits. It
35:06
doesn't make me feel better because I say, well, at
35:08
least it's not the government that's doing
35:10
it. No. a way it
35:12
is the government. The people who govern are the government. Now speaking of a rules
35:16
based order, This
35:18
week, I was I was playing
35:20
mister Matt Walsh at Game
35:22
of Fantasy Football and the middle of
35:26
Bet beforehand And the bet what we could the bet
35:28
was that whoever it whoever
35:30
loses, you know, has
35:32
to do certain things. Right?
35:35
And so Matt said, you can go back
35:37
to Matt's member block. Matt said that if
35:39
he loses, he would have to call
35:41
me sweet daddy Knowles I would have to
35:43
take title perpetuity until I beat until he beats
35:45
me again at Fantasy
35:48
Football. And if I
35:50
lose, I would have to eat some
35:52
disgusting sort of, you know, food or something
35:54
that the audience picks.
35:56
Now it would appear Not only
35:59
is Joe
35:59
Biden identifying
36:00
as a Puerto Rican, not
36:03
Walsh is identifying as
36:06
Welsh because he's trying to welch on his bet.
36:08
Jake says, Matt, what
36:08
did you and Michael decide for your bet? Yeah. We talked
36:11
about this in the in the members block
36:14
on Friday. gonna have because we're we're we're facing off against each other for fitness football this
36:16
week, and we were trying to figure out what our bet would be. So
36:18
the loser would have to
36:20
do something. and we
36:22
never decided on it. So I don't think we ever
36:24
decided what the bed is, which is good because I
36:26
believe I lost, and we never
36:27
decided I'm with the bed. So I don't have to do anything. I'm off
36:30
the hook. It
36:31
is off the
36:33
hook. We never made a bet. Is
36:35
that true? Is that true
36:36
producers? That's not what I saw in the
36:39
member block. I think we need go back to his tape. And
36:41
I think what all of you need to do, all
36:43
of you faithful listeners out there, you need
36:45
to tweet need to tweet at mount walsh at
36:48
Mount Walsh. And you need to get
36:50
him to start calling me by my properly, well earned, hard fought
36:52
title, sweet daddy Knowles.
36:56
That's what I am now. That's my title. I didn't ask for that title.
36:58
I earned that title. That title
37:00
was given to me because I triumped
37:04
in the Fantasy Football Battle. So I
37:06
learned this morning when I came into work. So
37:08
make sure you check that out.
37:11
It's really, it's crooked. Matt
37:13
is crooked if he's not gonna make good
37:15
on his bet. Speaking of
37:18
crooked plans, crooked plans to
37:20
reorder the political system.
37:22
It's a great a great boost
37:24
just came out from a Democrat
37:27
voter mobilization specialist His
37:30
name is Antonio Arolano is
37:32
a blue check on Twitter. He
37:36
says, quote,
37:37
new US Census Bureau
37:38
data indicates
37:40
that Hispanic Texans are now
37:42
the state's largest demographic route. Latinos
37:46
can turn Texas blue. k?
37:50
You you see what he's saying?
37:52
He's saying
37:54
that The more Latinos
37:56
there are in Texas, the greater the
37:58
chance that Texas will become a
37:59
Democrat a democrat state state.
38:02
And Because the Democrats
38:04
are flooding Texas with Latinos intentionally
38:06
by opening up the borders, this is
38:08
really good news for Democrats and the
38:11
Census Bureau data reflect that. they
38:13
show that Hispanic Mexicans are now the largest demo group in the
38:15
state great news we're about to
38:18
go blue. This
38:20
echo something Joe Biden said, at the Hispanic heritage
38:22
reception, he said, think about it.
38:25
No joke. When in when
38:27
in American history, has there been a
38:29
circumstance where one ethnicity potential to make such a profound impact on a
38:32
country? Twenty six percent of
38:34
every
38:34
single child
38:36
who's in school today
38:37
to speak Spanish. We've had large waves of immigration before, but
38:39
the thing is you just have enormous opportunity
38:41
to make this country so
38:44
much better. I really
38:45
mean it, as my father
38:46
would say, let's go get him. Come
38:49
on, Jack. Let's go get him. So
38:51
what's he saying? He say, Look,
38:53
we've had big migration before, but never like this. And
38:55
it's all the Latinos, and that's
38:57
really gonna help our
38:59
political agenda. It's gonna make the country better by
39:02
which we mean it's going to make the
39:04
country more democrat. It's gonna make the
39:06
country more liberal. It's gonna make the country
39:08
more leftist. kinda
39:10
sounds to me and
39:13
I don't wanna kinda sense
39:15
to me like a
39:17
like a theory that if
39:19
you replace the the
39:22
population of the country
39:24
with
39:25
Latino immigrants, in
39:27
a really big way, like a really large
39:29
way, like a really great
39:32
way that then the
39:34
democrats will have enduring
39:36
political advantage. What can we call this
39:38
theory? So so it's a
39:40
theory that's being
39:42
posited by well known
39:44
established democrats, not just democrat strategists,
39:46
but even the president himself. It's
39:49
a theory being advanced about
39:51
how if there were some sort of
39:53
great replacement of the people
39:56
in
39:57
America with immigrants
39:59
from Latin America
40:02
that the democrats would get a lot more
40:04
power. Can you
40:05
I can't think of a
40:07
name for this theory. If you
40:08
think of a name for this theory about how there could be a great
40:11
replacement, just let me know maybe in
40:13
the comments because I can't I
40:15
don't know. My brother, just haven't slept very well this week,
40:18
but but I think
40:20
whatever we call it, that's
40:22
the theory that the democrats are
40:25
advancing. Now, of course, the Democrats think this
40:27
is good. And so if you
40:29
observe this trend, the
40:32
idea that mass migration is intended to just give the to
40:34
to displace the people of the United States
40:36
and give the Democrats more of an advantage. If
40:38
you if you say that's good,
40:42
then the theory is true and you are allowed to say it.
40:44
But if you think that's bad, that that
40:46
is happening, that that what the Democrats are
40:48
saying is happening is happening. If you think
40:51
that's bad, then it's not true. It's false.
40:53
It's a dangerous conspiracy theory and it's got
40:55
to be censored. It's the same thing. You'd
40:57
be saying the
41:00
same thing. But if you
41:02
say Democrats
41:04
are flooding the country with migrants to gain
41:06
a political advantage, whoa. and
41:09
say, okay. Very good. Yes. Very good. Let's
41:11
let's promote that post on social media. Yes.
41:13
You're right. You could say that on the morning shows. You got
41:16
but if you say Democrats are flooding the
41:18
country with foreign nationals to gain a
41:20
political
41:21
advantage. They say no,
41:24
false, you're a racist, You're a racist
41:26
Nazi. You're a white
41:28
supremacist, bigot, conspiracy, tin
41:30
foil hat. I just
41:32
I said the same thing. I just I
41:34
just changed my cadence at the very end. I just
41:36
changed it. Yeah. Right. That's what
41:38
makes all the difference. Speaking of
41:40
things you're not allowed to say,
41:43
I mentioned earlier that I was in
41:45
Delaware last night pinch hitting for
41:47
Candice Owens or a speech he was supposed to
41:49
give. These Candice flew
41:52
to Paris to open a fashion show with Kanye West, which
41:54
is the sort of thing that Candice does. And
41:56
so I didn't hear any more details
41:58
than this other than I get a call. Candice is on
42:00
the Tar Mac,
42:02
which is okay, this is what's happening, and that's it.
42:04
Okay? Then I tune in.
42:06
I wait for the international trending news and
42:08
I see
42:10
it. the shirt that Candace and Kanye wore. This is a
42:12
shirt. You can see the photo from the back. It says,
42:15
white lives matter. Canvas
42:18
there with a white shirt and black print,
42:20
white lives matter. Kanye
42:22
there, black shirt, white
42:24
print, white lives matter. I love
42:27
it. I absolutely love
42:29
it. They're getting some pushback. Obviously,
42:31
they're getting pushback from the ribs because the ribs
42:33
want to say black
42:36
lives matter. And they're getting some pushback from the people in the
42:38
middle because they say, oh, you shouldn't say black lives matter
42:40
or white lives matter. You should just say,
42:42
all lives
42:44
matter. But Kanye and Canvas get it.
42:46
Okay? They get it. Obviously, they're being
42:48
intentionally provocative. It's a fashion show. That's
42:50
what you do at fashion shows.
42:54
but they get the point here. Why
42:56
would you say white lives matter? Well,
42:58
from a racial standpoint, as long as private
43:00
black lives or all lives or
43:02
white lives, From a racial standpoint, what they're saying
43:04
is, I think I don't wanna speak
43:06
for Canvas, but this is just my interpretation
43:08
of
43:10
the shirt. Right now,
43:12
we have been told for years
43:14
that black people are marginalized and discriminated
43:16
against and insulted and pushed to
43:18
the margins of society. And that's why we need
43:20
to say, Black Lives Matter. But
43:22
that's not true. Actually, there
43:24
is no legal discrimination or
43:27
systemic discrimination or really discrimination
43:30
at all, certainly not at a large scale against
43:32
black people. In fact, there's discrimination
43:34
in favor of black people through
43:36
things like affirmative action, through certain applications of
43:38
the civil rights laws, through the
43:41
culture, certainly, through
43:43
the popular media. The
43:45
only group that you are
43:48
actually legally both legally
43:50
allowed to discriminate against and
43:52
culturally encouraged to
43:54
discriminate against and insult
43:56
and mock and push to the fringes of
43:58
society. The only racial group is white
44:00
people. That's what happens. It's the only group you're
44:02
allowed to make fun of on TV. It's only a
44:04
group. White people in Asians are allowed to
44:06
discriminate against in college admissions.
44:08
And so, I don't know, it's unfortunate for
44:10
the Asians that they got limped in with the
44:12
white people. But that's
44:14
that's her in in jobs,
44:17
in employment, and
44:19
all sorts of things. It's the
44:21
white people. And so their Kanye and Candace are coming out
44:23
there and provocatively saying putting racial
44:26
issues aside, they're they're saying as they
44:28
frequently have,
44:30
The narrative that you are being fed
44:32
by the liberal establishment
44:34
is not only false,
44:36
it's the opposite of true.
44:40
If they're actually presenting a
44:42
vision of reality, the LeBron James black
44:44
black men can't walk out their doors without being
44:46
hunted down by racist cops. It's just
44:48
completely made up. The only people who
44:50
are being hunted down by the government right now
44:52
because of their identity are white
44:54
conservatives. They're like
44:56
Midwestern grannies. who have the
44:58
audacity to raise some questions
45:00
about the twenty twenty election. Okay? Or pro
45:02
life activists on
45:04
the sidewalk. or parents of all
45:06
races who don't want their
45:08
kids to be taught CRT and
45:10
transgenderism in
45:12
schools. Okay. But
45:14
then it's even more interesting with the Kanye shirt
45:16
because you couldn't see it in the picture, but on the
45:18
front of the Kanye shirt is a picture of
45:21
John Paul the second. And it
45:24
says, we will follow your
45:26
example. John Paul
45:28
the second. It says it in I
45:30
think it might be written in Spanish. I don't
45:32
have it in
45:33
front of me.
45:35
so
45:36
So what? lives matter on
45:38
the back. John pulled the second on the front, and then
45:40
it hit me. Again, maybe I'm reading
45:42
too deeply into it.
45:44
But
45:45
it hit
45:46
me at a higher level than just this kind of silly talk about
45:49
race, is the point that Kanye
45:51
is making a little deeper than that because the
45:53
pope wears white. John Paul the
45:55
second wore white Benonik wore white. Francis wears
45:57
white. The the pope wears white a white tuxedo, a
46:00
white mozzata, a white
46:02
casserick, a white that's just the symbol
46:05
of the pope. And is he suggesting something a little
46:07
deeper here that when we're talking about
46:10
white lives matter, we're not just
46:12
talking about race.
46:14
We're talking about something
46:17
deeper. We're talking about a
46:19
symbol, not of a particular
46:21
racial group, but of purity, a
46:23
symbol of the soul, a symbol of the soul after
46:25
baptism, and a a symbol of a
46:27
soul wearing a, you know,
46:30
sort of white garment, these images that we see in
46:32
paradise. We know that Kanye has had
46:34
a conversion or reversion sort
46:36
of experience Christianity. We know he
46:38
talks about religious themes a lot. We know he has an
46:40
album called Jesus as
46:42
King. Is there maybe a suggestion here
46:44
on this
46:46
provocative shirt? that actually not only is the BLM
46:48
narrative, bogus. We're gonna
46:50
debunk and own that with facts and logic
46:52
and provocation. But
46:54
the whole racial narrative is kind of a distraction from
46:56
what we should really be talking about,
46:59
which is deeper.
47:02
not just cultural, but actually ultimately religious because ultimately
47:04
all human conflict is theological. That
47:06
that's my read on. Again, I
47:10
don't know. I don't know that that's what was going through Kanye's head. I don't
47:12
really care. Very often, the greatest
47:14
artists are not critics of
47:16
their own work. Very often, the greatest artists
47:19
don't even consciously know what they are doing.
47:21
And this has been written about going all the way
47:23
back to ancient Greece. The the idea that the artists
47:25
are just sort of receiving
47:28
inspiration from the muses, and then they're
47:30
just doing stuff. And the reason there's a difference
47:32
between artists and critics is because very
47:34
often the artists couldn't even articulate exactly what they're doing. They're producing
47:36
the art and it's up to the critics to
47:38
interpret that sort
47:40
of art. Speaking
47:43
of lives mattering, speaking speaking of a popular disregard for
47:45
human life, new details are emerging. And
47:47
I mentioned this a few days ago,
47:49
maybe last week, this
47:52
shooting of the eighty four year old pro
47:54
life lady in Michigan, this
47:56
retired nurse Joan Jacobson,
47:59
and shot by this
48:02
crazy man, a seventy four year old guy named
48:04
Richard Harvey, who says he
48:06
fired off a warning shot from his twenty two
48:08
caliber rifle when he heard his
48:10
wife arguing with his pro life canvassed her
48:12
lady. And then he says
48:14
he tried to push away Jacobson's
48:16
clipboard and said he accidentally
48:18
shot her in the front of her shoulder accidentally fires a warning shot. He knows gun
48:20
is loaded. He's brandishing his gun and pushing this eighty
48:22
four year old lady away and shoots her in the shoulder.
48:26
And she says, I do think that he knew what he was
48:28
doing. She says, I think it was intentional.
48:30
This woman is a hundred twenty pounds
48:33
and five feet tall. didn't
48:36
refuse to leave their property when they asked.
48:38
She says she never she didn't threaten anybody
48:40
or anything like that. Certainly
48:42
though, there
48:44
is no reason to be brandishing a gun and an eighty
48:46
four year old woman who's five feet
48:48
tall. Ever. Even even if
48:49
she's coming at
48:51
you with a hammer, Okay. There
48:53
was no reason to to have a gun, certainly not a loaded gun and a shooter. So why do
48:55
I bring this up? Because there
48:58
there was you wanna make sure you
49:00
get getting the full story here. We still
49:02
don't really know the full story.
49:04
But what we do know is,
49:06
as the full story is
49:08
coming out, it is continuing to look terrible for this
49:10
guy. And and the way you know
49:12
this, by the way, is that the left
49:14
wing media are not covering
49:16
the story. if the story really
49:18
were, you know, this awful woman was threatening
49:20
him and you'd be hearing about it from the
49:22
media. But you're you're seeing the media cover up this
49:24
story. And so as the details come maybe complication
49:26
maybe the maybe the pro life lady
49:28
was arguing with the woman though, I'm not
49:30
even sure that that's
49:32
the case. But as
49:34
the details come out, we
49:36
continue to look right. Okay.
49:38
Right and right and right and right and
49:40
right and I do think people are
49:44
starting to notice that whether they can
49:46
take that noticing and
49:48
take that desire and channel it
49:50
into better government. That remains to be seen.

the description and join us. We have a great
50:01
interview coming up. It's with
50:04
Michael Schellenberger. Michael Schellenberger
50:06
is a really, really important
50:08
voice on environmental issues. and
50:11
Michael Schellenberger is shedding
50:14
some light on what I think
50:16
are not only the
50:18
ludicrous, but downright fensive Democrat
50:20
claims about Hurricane Ian and
50:22
and all the destruction down
50:25
in Florida, which they they
50:27
they blame on global warming and
50:29
those mean old don't recycle or or whatever
50:31
drive of Tesla's. And Schellenberger
50:34
brings a little bit of science to that. So we will get to
50:36
him in just
50:38
one second. See
