"All right, live from studio six B real America's voice on a Thursday night. Thank you for joining us. Damon is out for tonight. He'll be back tomorrow night to kick off the weekend and the, uh, the Trump, I guess they're not really rallies. They're, they're speeches that he's going to be doing. He's going to be covering two of them. We're going to be covering him here, uh, not only on the network, but on our show in particular for the second one. Um, so make sure you tune in for that tomorrow night. You know what? When we talk about the Trump rally, we're going to be talking about the talked about this real quick last night, David, uh, about, you know, Trump doing these two speeches in DC, something popped into my head and I wasn't able to verbalize it because it was kind of, we were kind of jumping all around, but I'm thinking, man, do you think DC is going to try and arrest him while he's in town tomorrow? You think, well, if you want to start world war three, I mean, he's in DC, he's rarely in Washington, DC. Yeah. Well, um, wouldn't that be the craziest if he's out of control, right? It is out of control. Crime is epic levels. Um, but, uh, do you think he's got anything to be worried about? No. Okay. All right. Just checking. Um, but the next year is going to be hairy and crazy with another five, 10, 15 million elites. I mean, you know, the whole world's been invited here, uh, right now. So I got stories on that for you. Um, all right. Well, we'll touch base on that. I'm still a wildly popular and, um, yeah. Um, but like you said, he, uh, he had his own statement. He released today, uh, I guess this afternoon after the justice department indicted Hunter Biden, uh, Trump blast justice department, Hunter Biden indictment as, as David said, the only crime that doesn't implicate the president and he couldn't be more right. Former president Donald Trump is taking aim at the, uh, the D at that, at the justice department over its indictment of president Biden's son, Hunter Biden on those federal firearms charges, the former president, uh, claimed on truth social. He put out a truth that the gun charge was the only crime that Hunter Biden committed that does not implicate crooked Joe Biden. Now he could be, he could be wrong on that, believe it or not. And I say that only because didn't we find out it was a secret service that actually came to his rescue, especially when it came to the disposal of the gun disposal. Yeah. So, but again, I guess he's right because this, this indictment doesn't include the point, right? Such an enveloping, uh, thing over this. That's so much more important to America's, uh, you know, standing in the world in our future. Right. But this, these indictments, all three of them don't include that disposal, which would have, I guess, then tied Joe to school, nonetheless across from a school. Oh yeah. And it's the same shopping center where, uh, Mac Isaac, where he dropped the laptop. Exactly. That's, that's the best part. So he, he used to loiter basically, Hunter Biden used to loiter in the parking lot there. And not only did he drop off a laptop, he dropped off a gun too, but this gun ended up in a, in a, in a trash bin. If a vague said, don't fall for the indictments, that it's a smokescreen today. Right. And he said it's a fig leaf designed to deflect attention away from the real problem of the Biden family is selling us foreign policy for money, basically. So didn't I just say that in the first segment? That's my theory. It was, it was designed. How can we use this to our advantage? Well, we need to, we need to focus off old Joe. He's really, he's really having a bad week. Uh, do we got any other indictments and I'm sure somebody called up David Weiss and said, Hey David, you know what? You know what? Just do the gun thing. It'll never see a courtroom. Well, we'll bury it. It'll probably be more than a year. If you could even schedule it for a court date, right. Cause they just going to push it off. Oh, well, we need more time. We need this. We need that. It'll never see the light of day. He'll be out of office by the time this thing would ever even make it. So that's why I said, I think he's going to use the opportunity as he's walking out the door or as he's a, as he's puttering out the door. Um, he's gonna, he's gonna, you know, issue the pardon for a son for any and all crimes that he's ever committed ever in his life. Yeah. Well, you always need a distraction. Uh, and one of them is maybe to take away attention from what's going on in Utah. Right. Yeah. I don't know if you want to segue into that. Now or later, but, uh, Let's save Utah because, because I know there's a bunch of other things you had that you wanted to make sure we touched on. And I want to use, I want to use the next segment to jump into Utah cause there's so much going on believe it or not in Utah of all places. Yeah. And it's a, it turns out it's more important than people think. Yeah. So, uh, Trump slammed the justice department Democrats for what he claimed was a horrible, very unfair and mostly illegal witch hunt when it comes to referred to him. Um, and GOP house speaker, Kevin McCarthy announced on Wednesday that he was directing a committee to open an impeachment inquiry into the president. So house Republicans alleged that the president, Joe Biden, when he was serving as the VP in the Obama administration profited off his son's foreign business deals. And, uh, again, this is the, this is the proverbial Pandora's box, right? If they open that box, which they don't want to open a coffee doesn't want to, he doesn't want it. Did you see him? He, he like bat nuanced around it saying, we're going to look into some things or something like he didn't say we're going to impeach them. It's almost like, uh, you know, it's almost like Elon Omar, uh, some, some people did some bad things, that kind of thing where they dance around, terrible look for, for McCarthy. Right. And that boy, you see Bannon was railing on him today. Rightly so. And what did he have to say that, that, you know, and listen, Matt Gates went into the lion's den on CNN. Yeah, I saw that he had, you know, and, and Bannon was praising that because, you know, it's rare that, you know, someone from, uh, on the right, you know, can go and withstand or actually, uh, you know, go before, um, you know, and, and the, and the guy who hosted, I always forget his name, but he's an attorney and, and he's not your typical CNN host. Uh, and, and Gates shredded him. And, um, it was really, it was really good. It was really good. And, uh, Gates is mad and what he should be. And what's amazing is that they even invited him. You know what I think? I, I think CNN and the left at large, they basically have this idea of Matt Gates, right? They have this, this idea that, uh, he's just, he just talks stuff. He just, he just says outrageous stuff, but he's not really that smart. And I think that's where they misstep. That was a big misstep on another network too. So, yeah. So the fact that they would even invite a Republican and someone like a Matt Gates into their, onto their network, which you'd rarely ever see, um, because they know what they're going to get. So they kind of avoid, He's holding McCarthy accountable for the, uh, for the budget and for, uh, you know, the impeachment. So it was, it was good to see. Yeah. So, so he, he did very well on CNN and, and like David said, shredded the, uh, the host there. Um, because, and I love that. And you see it on MSNBC, CNN, ABC, you know, all the Sunday shows, they sit there, these reporters, these journalists, right? David, you've been around journalists enough to know that most of them don't do journalism. That's all, it's all opinion. They sit there and they carry the water instead of asking questions, questions, the, who, the, what, the, where, the, why, the, how, right. Give me the facts. Tell me what happened. I don't mind. Um, because you know, I, I write for newspapers and I'm in the field for rav. I don't mind if somebody shows their colors, but are they fair and are they asking the right questions and, and back it up, back up what you say, right? Because that does not happen. That's not something Joy Reed does. Well, not even Joy Reed, but even, even, even, you know, your supposed news hosts on the CNNs and the MSNBCs of the world, they don't really, they're fine. They end up fighting with the guest. And that's the part that drives me nuts. It's like, why are you fighting? Why, why aren't you more inquisitive? Why aren't you asking the question like, well, what makes you think that way? What have you seen that you could share with us that might say, okay, enlighten us to why you think this way or what gives you this, this idea that something something illegal happened? Well, you know, we've got these SARS reports and what's on those SARS. Well, those are reported by the banks to was very, very strange if a company ever has to the Biden family has 180, 180. So that's really a little strange. I've done about 80 to a hundred, you know, live debates with the left on live TV, on news. Um, and you know, they don't bring any facts to the table, you know, unless you're like a Dershowitz, you know, cause then you get your, you know, but handed to you. But listen, uh, these people can't back up what they say. They know there's a double system, a two tier justice system. They just can't back it up and it's easy to defeat them. Did you just gotta be engaged and you can't back down. Yeah. And you got to ask a question like, well, what have you seen? You know, I saw this again today where they're complaining. Well, we haven't seen, and it's, it's the talking point that the Biden administration put out. We haven't seen any evidence of Joe Biden taking direct payments or anything, right? Well, we're not supposed to show you direct evidence. You're supposed to go and try and find out what happened. Ask these questions. That's a hundred times more evidence than they had on Trump. And that's the thing. That's what I was going to say for Trump. They had no evidence. It was all, it was all hearsay. It was, it was Adam Schiff standing there. I've seen it. Okay. What have you seen? Is there one thing you can say to us to say, this is what I saw. This is against law may be in a global conflict over what Biden did. Right.

"Will, I was making a point that when you use a label too much, it loses its meaning. That is certainly, the ADL is very guilty of that. Your thoughts? Yeah, look, you know, calling someone a racist who's actually racist should have power and should have meaning. But when folks on the left just call every conservative, every Republican a racist, when they call Mitt Romney, the most milquetoast guy on the planet, a racist, it destroys the ability out of it. I mean, to me, that's doing far more damage to the real fight against racism or antisemitism in our world than just about anything else. That, as you said before, if everybody's a racist, nobody is. And that's a tragedy. So we have some exclusive footage here of Jonathan Greenblatt at a diner in New York City. Play cut 23. Well, look at this. I told them medium rare. It's medium. It happens. I bet that cook is an antisemite. You can't even see him, he has no idea who you are. They don't just overcook a hamburger, Jared. Fine. Anyway, the point I was making before Goebbels made your hamburger here is this. A man like you could be dating women 20 years younger. Believe me, I thought about it, but she is so perfect in every way. I can't see a flaw. Well, keep looking. And that was never before seen footage, Will, of Jonathan Greenblatt having a burger. Your thoughts? Yeah. So the only difference between that and the ADL is the ADL wouldn't have called the cook an antisemite unless they knew he was a Republican. No, that's exactly right. They would ask for his voter registration and they would have shut down the restaurant is what they would have had. I mean, that's the crazy thing that literally every group they call out, every person they call out is somebody on the right. You and I know that there are plenty of antisemites on the left. Some of the most vicious antisemitism, some of the most damaging antisemitism in America today comes from the left and the ADL is silent on it. And to me, that's just the damning indictment of where the organization is at. And and it's a terrible, terrible statement on where they've where they were at the point they've arrived at after being started with, I think, once noble intentions. One of the reasons why Seinfeld is one of the most effective shows ever is it was self deprecating about kind of single Jewish culture in New York in the 1990s. And in some ways, Seinfeld would warn about something that would be happening in certain. And he's basically the subtext that is like, hey, guys, you can't call everything antisemite, the Semitic, right? That's the subtext of that 30 second clip there, because it's obviously outrageous, right? You don't just overcook a burger. It's like, hold on, there's other things at play here. And, you know, Seinfeld does it in such a lighthearted, hilarious way where he just interjects there. And what's important, though, is and you make the most important, the most critical point is that they'll ignore the blatant Jew hatred. If the card says Democrat, if they use the card, the card says Democrat. They're like, oh, well, maybe we can work with you. I went to the ADL website in the break. There is not a whisper about the Muslim Jew hatred, about Elon Omar, about BDS, nothing at all, nothing. But there is just you if you just look at the ADL website, you would think that, like, one of the major American political parties is neo-Nazis. Final thoughts, Will Scharf. Yeah, the ADL condemned me and Josh Hammer for founding Jews against Soros. I mean, we're both practicing Jews. For us to call out Soros's politics was to them akin to anti-Semitism. It's just it's it's patently absurd. It has to stop. And as conservatives, we need to band together against exactly this sort of left-wing activism, masked however they decide to mask it. Will Scharf running for attorney general from Missouri. Great work. Thanks so much. Thanks for having me on, Charlie. Good to see you. You know, it's I'm a big fan of Seinfeld, Frasier and The Office, and The Office got worse after a couple of seasons. Let me be very clear. The first couple seasons of The Office are exceptional.I can pinpoint just on the top of my head, 10 or 12 episodes of Frasier, Seinfeld or The Office that would not be allowed on television today would not be allowed. One, for example, if you want to see how America has become a less fun country. A less free country, I encourage you to watch a single episode called Diversity Day. Do you know what I'm talking about, guys? It is one of the most irreverent, hilarious, politically incorrect. You cannot believe that it was allowed on television on NBC just 10 or 12 or 13 or 14 years ago. It is, laugh out loud, hilarious. But why is it that America has become less fun? Well, it's because as a country becomes more totalitarian, humor is a threat to tyranny because humor is the truth. That's why people laugh when things are true. We've stopped laughing as a country. Very serious all the time. Our late night shows are a bunch of seal barking, clapping. Yay, Jimmy Kimmel. Yay, person that I don't even know, Stephen Colbert, vaccine shill.

"I've received text messages from rabbis, from Orthodox Jews all across the planet this weekend thanking me for what we've done against the ADL. And some people are afraid. Some people, the conservative movement, they're like, oh, I don't know if I want to touch the ADL. Why the fear? This is an important lesson, everybody, because they don't want to be called a name. They do not want to be called a name. And of all the bad names you could be called in American society, racist is bad. But honestly, being called an anti-Semite is even worse than being called a racist in certain circles. And people do not want to touch it. I know that's a lie. And any time in your life you know something is a lie, do not be deterred by the names they could call you. So we leaned in because the ADL doesn't represent Jewish values. They represent secular left-wing values under the camouflage of Judaism. And it's repulsive. Look, I want to tell you about Donors Trust. We're sponsored today by them, the principal tax friendly way to simplify your charitable giving. Fidelity Charitable recently released its latest giving report. According to its report, its account holders recommended in 2022 $11 billion to nonprofits in the mixed Planned Parenthood Foundation of America. In fact, according to the report, Planned Parenthood was the sixth most popular nonprofit among Fidelity Charitable account holders. Last year, six out of nearly 200,000 unique charities. Does that upset you? Well, it upsets me too. The good news is that if you have Fidelity Charitable giving account, it's not too late to roll over your charitable dollars to a giving account provider that shares your values. Roll over your giving to Donors Trust so you can actually help expectant mothers and families in crisis. I love Donors Trust. Donors Trust givers have recommended grants to dozens of pro-life organizations and crisis pregnancy centers, including Priests for Life, Students for Life, Susan B. Anthony List Education Fund, Americans United for Life, Care Net and others. Visit Donors Trust dot org slash Charlie to learn more about Donors Trust. We work with them very closely. I really like them. If you are giving money away from now to the end of the year, you guys should look at Donors Trust as a way to set up a donor advised fund that is Donors Trust dot com slash Charlie to discover how you can partner with a giving account provider that shares your values. That's Donors Trust dot org slash Charlie. Joining us now is Will Scharf, who's running for attorney general in Missouri. I'm 100 percent behind him. He's a great man. Will, thank you for joining. The topic we want to talk about today, though, is the Anti-Defamation League, ADL. And what they've been doing the last couple of years is reprehensible. They are the linchpin of the censorship industrial complex in more ways than one. Now, well, you're Jewish and you know, they say that you're not allowed to attack the ADL. If you do, you're an anti-Semite. How should we think about the ADL? The floor is yours, Will Scharf. Yeah, look, you know, the ADL is an organization that was founded to fight anti-Semitism, but now it operates mostly as an organization that just seeks to advance leftism. You never hear them say a word about the BDS movement on campuses, which is threatened and imperiled Jewish students on college campuses all across America. But every time there's a leftist cause, they jump to the forefront and attach their name to it. I think this has become particularly true since 2015 when a guy named Jonathan Greenblatt, who used to be a special assistant to Barack Obama, took over the group. But the ADL is a sad shell of what it once was. It should be condemned by all for what they're doing, whether it's on censorship or just generally promoting leftism. And I think Elon Musk is exactly right that it's time for a reckoning. So kind of just talk about they're incredibly aggressive and they say that their mission statement is to fight anti-Semitism. And I actually I mean, I am all on board for fighting anti-Semitism legitimately. I actually think they do a disservice in that fight. And I'll give you an example. They have here on their website that numbers 1 through 11, 109, 110, 12, 13, 1352, 1390, 14, 1423, 21, 2, literally it's like 50 numbers are hate symbols. I mean, Will, at some point they are they're getting to a place where there's a supply and demand problem here. While you ignore the legitimate Jew hatred of Elon Omar and Rashida Talib in the Democrat Party, they're trying to tell us that basically half the numbers 1 to 100 are hate symbols. Yeah, look, it's an organization that's just tragically lost its way. It was founded, obviously, in the early 1900s, when there was certainly a lot more anti-Semitism in America than there is today. I think organizations like that can serve a valuable purpose, calling out a legitimate anti-Semitism like we've seen from Elon Omar, as you said. But what that organization exists to do right now is just advance leftist dogma and shut down any speech on the right under the guise of combating anti-Semitism. You may know a couple months ago, my friend Josh Hammer and I founded a group called Jews Against Soros. Yeah, it was great. Because every time someone on the right, every time a conservative criticizes George Soros, they get attacked and condemned as anti-Semite. We don't oppose George Soros because he's Jewish. We oppose him because he's an evil man who's done terrible things to the world. But that's the sort of campaign that the ADL has been involved in, is tarring and feathering conservatives for speaking out against Soros. And it's just, it's wrong. Yeah. And so can you also just explain to our audience, in serious religious Jewish circles, the ADL is not very well respected. The ADL is pushing forward very radical ideas on gender and sexuality and politics. Is it fair to say that the ADL operates a lot more as a political activist group for kind of almost quasi-cultural Marxist ideas than anything to actually fight Jew hatred? Yeah, there's almost nothing uniquely Jewish about the organization anymore. It's just another leftist auxiliary in the political wars that we're fighting on any number of fronts. Now, this is an organization that, as I said, was founded with great motives. But you know this as well as anybody. All organizations, all institutions that are not explicitly conservative, become leftist over time at Sullivan's first law. That's what we've seen with the ADL. It's a particularly stark example of it. I want to play a piece of tape here. This is cut 14. ADL saying they work at the FBI every single day. Play cut 14. It is the FBI that works directly with the ADL every day. And we could not do our job, if you will, of fighting anti-Semitism without them doing their job of protecting our community. So Director Wray, we are in your, we really, really have the deepest appreciation for you and all of your professionals. Thank you for the work that you do. Thank you, Jonathan. Thank you for what you do. So I want to broaden this for a second, Will, that I think is interesting. You have the SPLC, you have the ADL, you have the ACLU. Talk for a second how there is this infrastructure of 501c3 non-profits that almost do, or they've become the research arm for the police state and the administrative state. Will Scharf. Yeah, so as we've taken back the courts under President Trump, as the conservative legal movement has made it progressively tougher for government actors to engage in political censorship, to engage in political discrimination. The left has been remarkably effective at using non-profits, primarily 501c3s, as you said, to do the job that they could use government censors for a generation or two ago. So whether it's the ADL, whether it's the ACLU, they all believe themselves to be a part of this bigger network, and they view their goal as ensuring leftist hegemony all across America and every facet of our lives. The guy on that clip that you just showed, that's Jonathan Greenblatt, the head of the ADL. He was a special assistant to Barack Obama. He's never worked with Jewish organizations before becoming the head of the ADL. He was put in there to take that organization in a leftist direction, and that's exactly what he's done. That's what's so scary about the way the modern left is organized and what we ultimately all need to be willing to fight again. So I want you to elaborate on that. That's a really smart point, Will, that I haven't heard anybody make, is that because of work that you did and Leonard Leo and Federalist Society really taking the court seriously the last 20 or 30 years, all of a sudden being able to outwardly use the blunt force instrument of government has become harder, thankfully, right? Not impossible, but harder. We still have the stuff with Trump, which is ridiculous. But what you're saying, though, is that in the last couple of years, the nonprofits pivoted and changed their strategy. For example, the SPLC, they go after credit card processors. They went all in on that, right? So that you're not allowed to use Visa if you're on our hate list. That's a really weird but creative and darn effective way of doing this. So talk for a second, Will, that the modern left, they use lists, they use rankings as then this fake standard to be able to then prohibit very basic activities and freedoms, banking, access to social media, credit card processing, Will Scharf. And they also buy brands, Charlie. I mean, that's that's what we've seen with SPLC, with ADL. What they do is they take the NAACP, frankly, they take established brands with a history and civil rights fight or other causes that at one time were noble causes, and they leverage those brands to wage political warfare in highly leveraged, highly effective, oftentimes ways against us. The SPLC hate list started out as calling out neo-Nazis and folks like that. They took it in a direction where the Alliance Defending Freedom, major pro-religious liberty nonprofit, were suddenly deemed hate group. It's the same with what we've seen with the ADL, where anyone they don't like, they just are as an anti-Semite now like Elon Musk. But this is all part of a much bigger network of organizations and a much bigger plan on the part of the left. And that's where you get into the Soros network, the Arabella Advisors Network. They have effectively insulated themselves from a lot of the victories we've been able to achieve politically and with the courts in the last two decades because their key actors are no longer governmental actors. They're private actors working in this highly effective network way to shut down conservative speech and to imperil conservative organizations doing really good, important work. And it's too bad because it cheapens, it waters down the necessary but should be rarely used but pointed label of an anti-Semite. There are Jew haters out there, there are. But if everyone becomes an anti-Semite, then the word means nothing. And that's too bad because then there's no differential, there's no distinction. When they call me an anti-Semite, first of all, it's not true and I just laugh it off. But then it's also really sad. It's like then someone who actually does hate Jews, they'll be able to say, oh, well, everyone is that, then no one is.

"The ADL is a uni-party regime defender. And look at him, basically slobber over FBI Director Christopher Wray. Listen carefully. Play cut 14. It is the FBI that works directly with the ADL every day. And we could not do our job, if you will, of fighting anti-Semitism without them doing their job of protecting our community. So Director Wray, we really, really have the deepest appreciation for you and all of your professionals. Thank you for the work that you do. Thank you, Jonathan. Thank you for what you do. The ADL has become an extension of the administrative state. The ADL is captured by these radical Marxists who are using these institutions under the guise of, well, we just fight hate. Even they themselves become the nastiest organizations you could imagine. So over the weekend, Elon Musk then amplified call to ban the ADL from X. But how does the Times of Israel... This drives me crazy how they cover this. The jpost.com, timesofisrael.com, this does you guys no good. For those of you that care about the welfare and the well-being of the Jewish people, which I certainly care about, outspokenly, it does you no good to cover stories this way. Times of Israel, Elon Musk amplifies call by anti-Semites to ban the ADL from X. Well, that's quite a headline. Call by anti-Semites? Are you trying to call me an anti-Semite? Of course they are, because they don't actually want to get down to the details that the ADL is a smear organization. They are a hate organization. So what do they do? They say, well, Elon Musk is amplifying a call by anti-Semites. Could you imagine if they used that way of writing headlines? Here would be a great headline. House of Representatives passes bill supported by anti-Semites. Oh, well, that sounds pretty bad. Well, Elon Omar voted for it. She hates Jews. So could you imagine if they used that sort of headline writing for anything else? No, but they use that intentionally because they think the ADL is untouchable because they get to play the anti-Semite card. Oh, you're an anti-Semite if you dare question us. Screw you. Elon Musk is engaging with white nationalists and anti-Semites who ban the Anti-Defamation League from Twitter on the influential social media platform he now calls X. This is TimesOfIsrael.com. This is such sloppy journalism. This doesn't do anybody any good. This creates resentment is what it does. They say this onslaught comes following our participation in the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington. Yeah, why is it that we hate the ADL so much? They say, well, it's because we're Jews. No, it's not. It's because you're scum rats. Who wants to censor and shut us up? Play cut 15. The ADL, our Center for Technology and Society, works actively with all the kind of companies in Silicon Valley from Apple to Zoom, if you will, from Amazon to Microsoft to Meta and indeed to Twitter. We've dealt with them for years helping them tackle the challenges of hate speech on their service. We point things out. We share information, but what we've said again and again and again, we need these companies to engage constructively, smartly, use their innovation to tackle hate speech. I see that chart you put up that contradicts what we're seeing at ADL. We've seen anti-Semitic speech stay up there longer than ever before. Just so everyone understands, there's entire armies of religious Jews that loathe the ADL. The more devout of a Jew that you are, the more loathsome the ADL has become.

"Interesting. You mentioned Ukraine. So there's an additional funding request by the white house, including $24 billion for the war in Ukraine, $16 billion for disaster aid, $1.4 billion for the women, infants and children's food assistance program. And I'm sure we'd find that every dollar that was meant to go to that organization would get there. And then more than a billion for refugee assistance. Math is horrible here. That's $24 billion. That only came up to about 18. So you wonder where the other six, I guess, is going. So yeah, it just never ends. What does a billion for refugee mean? What does that mean? I don't know. It's just for their assistance, Mike. I don't know. Nice. Not sure, but we never know. We never know. Couldn't build the wall for 4 billion though. You can't. No. And you can't fix some of these inner cities where crime is actually rampant, absolutely going berserk. It never ends in these, in these cities, but we can't put even a hundred thousand dollars toward fixing that. Um, yeah. So, so freedom caucus members, this is what, this is, this is where we're going to wonder who's going to win this, right? Freedom caucus members said border security provisions, overhaul of the justice department and FBI's budget and to woke policies at the defense department. These are all the things that they're hoping for and you can keep hoping freedom caucus, cause it ain't happening. McCarthy will cave. There will be another continuing resolution. This is just my prediction. And we are going to see billions and billions and billions of more dollars go to Ukraine. Nothing will ever change. I don't think the Senate getting back and reconvening means that, that the, the GOP members actually grew us at Mike. I just don't believe it. No. And, and I'll tell you, I think this is, this is why people like Matt Gates fought against Kevin McCarthy, right? They can't, they're career politicians that they can't get out of their own way. And this is just another example that Kevin McCarthy will cave. He always does. Mitch McConnell, if he's involved in some way, shape or form, he'll be caving in some bill or something that he's going to do. They, they, they refuse to actually stand up and say no, right? If you want them to tell me today, well, Hey, I have a bill that we're going to put up five billions going to Ukraine. Nope. Done over. I'm not even listening to the rest. All right. I have a new bill, 5 billion going to refugee, but nope. Done over that. That's how you negotiate. Because if you just say, okay, instead of 5 billion, we'll go down to 3 billion. That's what they want. They never expected five anyway. Right. Of course they're asking for a way higher amount. It's called negotiation folks. That's what it is. Right. And again, for me, if we were spending any money on anything other than the United States in this point in time, people say all the time, well, you don't want to become isolationist. I'm not saying that. I'm saying when we have, as you pointed out, rampant crime, record suicides, record overdoses, record border infiltration, right? When you add all these things together. Oh, and by the way, failing school grades and with kids, when you add all these things together, we have major issues and it's creating massive chaos in our country. I want to be an isolationist until we get ourselves in order, right? Mike, it's like this was with money, right? Okay. Our finances are disaster. You know, I'm going, I'm bleeding money. I'm spending money, but you know what? I want that truck. That truck is really nice. Sarah, do you mind if I buy the truck? I know we're, we're floundering financially, but I'll buy a truck. It doesn't work. You can't do that, right? It's the same thing with what we're doing now. Everything sucks here, but you know what? Let's just spend a little more. If we, if we save Ukraine, it'll all go better. It won't. Never does. So in Austin, our last story, Austin, Texas, Austin police ask robbery victims, and this isn't a knock against the police folks. I don't want you to think that. They ask robbery victims to call three one one amid staffing shortage and crime crisis. So three one, one three one one is basically a number for non-emergency requests. They've even said, maybe you can just fill out an online report if you're robbed. Why not? Because the police don't care about you, but because there's such fewer police than there ever were before. Mike, um, there's this, this, this new protocol comes as the Texas Capitol grapples with an increase in crime compared to 2020 Austin has had a 77% increase in auto thefts, 18% increase in aggravated assaults and 30% increase in murders. And so this is what we're relegated to. Don't call nine one one where you're actually going to get an immediate response and someone to help you hopefully within 10 minutes. No, now report this, just call it. It's a non-threatening crisis. Maybe even email us that you, you just had a, you know, some, you know, three, four people with hoods on their heads, ransack your home, steal all the valuables and you're left with nothing except fear and anxiety. But you know what? Just email us. So this is not what I thought this headline was on our sheet that you made today. That is not where I thought that was going. Austin hyphen call three one, one. That is not what I thought that was. Okay. Um, I, I would like to know for the people that are getting robbed, how they feel if this is a non-emergency or, or, you know, it's nonviolent, you know, I mean, just imagine yourself sitting there in your apartment, somebody comes and walks in with a gun or something and says, uh, give me all your crap. Excuse me. Let me just dial through. Um, yes, I am a little nervous right now. Somebody's in my house. Um, can you afford me the police? No, this is a nonviolent emergency. Uh, I mean, you can't make this stuff up, right? I mean, I cannot believe, and by the way, I can, I, I, let me restart. I can believe this. I said this at a family party this weekend, a family member of mine is a police officer. You couldn't pay me a million dollars a year to do his job, Mike. Why? If I'm not getting shot at or assaulted, if I actually do my job, there's a potential that I lose my job and get arrested. Why would you want to do that job? And then we wonder why we have less police officers. That, that, that to me is that you are, you have made it such a disincentive for anyone in their right minds to think that go into, go into the, uh, what is it like the training, you know, go going and getting tested, making sure you can pass through training, actually, you know, graduating and going and becoming a cop. You've made it about the most least attractive profession you could ever, ever imagine at this point, you know, they don't get backed by their superiors. They, they get degraded, like, you know, they just get so beaten and bashed by the public in many of these cities as if it's their fault. Yeah. They're not the ones stealing vehicles. They're not the ones in these aggravated assault situations. They're not the ones murdering others. They're the ones showing up and saying who did this and what's going on. They're trying to stop things. I don't know who in their right minds would ever go into, um, you know, into law enforcement, Mike, ever again. I can't imagine it. And then when they use their, their force, which is a taser, a gun or whatever, it's like, well, why would you, why would you do that? Well, when people are threatening you or you don't know if they have a gun or not and your life is on the line, like people forget that. Right. You know, like, in our worst days, our most stressful days, it's, it's us having to deal with a company or us dealing with an upset client or whatever. It's not us facing the barrel of a gun or us facing a threat that we can't see. Right. I mean, I can't, I get nervous. If I make a mistake in my, in my job, let alone imagine walking around a corner, not knowing if you're gonna get shot or stabbed. Right. I mean, the distress these men and women live under the, the, the stress of the job, then the stress of the repercussions of doing their job might be worse because you know, you, you, you take down a bad criminal and it's like, uh, am I going to go to jail because I just killed the guy that raped somebody like like that, that, that's, that's what it's become, right? If you shoot somebody, there's an investigation to try and put you in jail because you did your job. That's horrifying. It's horrifying. You're doing all the right things and you're getting penalized and punished, maybe even killed. I mean, in these cities. So just, just shocking to me, like when, when will it sink in? Does it sink in when it actually hits their doorstep? Like is that when, you know, when the mayors, the people in charge, when it's their family members, is that when they finally say, Holy shit, you know, we got to do something. We got to get more people in law enforcement. We're going to actually back you. We're going to actually praise you for, for the courage that you have every single day to show up. Uh, like you do. No, they don't like they just hire private security so they don't have these problems. But like, like the lady from Minnesota or whatever, you know, not Elon Omar, the other one, Cory Bush, right? Yeah. Yeah. You know, yeah. Police suck, but I do have my own private security and I'm paying my husband. Happens to be, happens to be in part her husband who gets, you know, tens of thousands of dollars through her campaign. But, but never ever, will that be, she'll never be held accountable for that either. Yeah. So back to school folks, Labor Day, uh, is behind us, uh, 2023. So football season back to school, um, Congress while mostly Senate is now reconvening lots of fun. And Mike last thoughts on a campaign season, a little bit quiet over the weekend, right? I mean, I heard, let's see, Mike Pence and Vivek Ramaswamy ended up at the same event, but they didn't really cross paths. I just had to make a note that they, they passed each other. We will see. I think now is when it starts to get juiced up. Not that it hasn't been juiced up yet, but it's, it's now really getting to, I mean, you're, what is the end of one, two, three, four months until the Iowa caucus, right? So, I mean, we're, we're beginning across the country will begin very soon and it's holiday season coming up. I mean, I know before we know it, Mike, it's going to be Thanksgiving and Christmas and you know what happens when that happens, everything speeds up. So then we'll be right into election season. And I mean, you know, primary voting season, uh, right after that. And then, you know, once you turn the, turn the new year, it's 11 months till election day. So, so we're getting closer and closer. This next 15 months is going to fly by. And just real quick, uh, you, you had tweeted, I think Adam Kinzinger, I thought I just meant saw mention of him, your man friend. Yeah. He, uh, he shut down the comments on Twitter, so I can't comment on his stuff. So now I have to direct tweet him sometimes. Um, he is, this was about the January 6th committee. We didn't talk about this today, Mike, but you know, these, uh, there's been, there's been, uh, some, some information that's come out about the, I don't know if you saw us, the Nazi group in Florida that was walking around with swastikas and Hitler signs. Yeah. Um, shocker, uh, spoiler alert. Part of these people were actually paid operatives that we found out. So, so I tweeted Adam Kinzinger and asked if he was willing to take a look and reopen the January 6th committee. Cause one of the people walking around with Nazi flags was actually one of the people stirring up January 6th crowd. So thought maybe he would care about that. I don't, he didn't respond. So I would assume he doesn't. I hope someday he's on the view. I hope he's like one of the five view, um, hosts. Oh, he's on CNN. That's pretty similar. Yeah. Yeah. Geez. Yeah. All right. Well folks, that'll do it. We appreciate you tuning in as always, uh, three podcasts every week, Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays. And don't forget morning Mike's live eight 15 to eight 30 Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays.

I know you used to do that, but I was in the old days We we'd get together at lunch and go let's fetishize people of color, but I don't remember what we did No, I'm not that was sarcastic. What what what does it mean to fetishize? Maybe well, we should look it up Okay, I don't know claiming reverse racism, oh, there's no such thing I told you I'd learned that in the 70s a black cannot be a racist It's right black shoots a white person screams anti-white epithets not racist Just want you to know Excusing or white explaining wait racism Don't know what that one means this is what Kentucky nurses must study Oh Hi everybody Dennis Prager here and I'm with the Julie Hartman we periodically do third hours together and I love it and Hi, Julie. Hi Dennis. I love it, too That's really nice There is as I was saying to her right before we went out I have so many rich subjects, but I'm gonna take a call I'm gonna actually begin with a call cuz I love calls that differ with me and I'm not being cute. I do So, where is it? Yeah, here we go Rick in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Hello Hi, I just wanted to say I heard earlier in the program what I considered to be a disappointingly tepid response To the comments that RFK had made when he claimed that the COVID vaccine and the cloak COVID virus Was specifically engineered to spare Ashkenazi Jews. I would I considered your response Frankly to be hypocritical. I think that I Can't help but recall when Ilhan Omar dared to suggest that money from the pro-israel lobby Influenced members of Congress. It was considered a vile anti-semitic trope I can only imagine What the response from you and everybody else in right-wing broadcasting would be if Ilhan Omar dared to say that COVID Somehow was engineered to spare Jews I think it's sad that you chose to to give RFK a pass here for reasons of politics Rather than call him out for something that is not just factually incorrect, sir It is a vile anti-semitic conspiracy theory. I think you should be ashamed of yourself I'm not I Know yes, because I actually pursue truth and I've done more to fight anti-semitism in my life than you or Elon Omar in all of your I do more in the day You don't know anything. Yes, I'll bet you. Okay. No, no, really is a lie Tell I'll tell you know what your response to Ilhan Omar was. Okay, sir. You said I lied about you Let's take that one then do you fight anti-semitism? I'll give you my bona fides. You give me your bona fides. I am doing so by calling. Okay. Okay fine. Okay All right. I have to put you on hold because you're getting a bit hysterical and it's also You avoided my point. I said that I do more to fight anti-semitism in a day than you do in a lifetime You said I lied. I Think so. I said give me one example of your fighting anti-semitism and you said you're calling me now Okay, I played it for you Number one. He said that all he said was that there are viruses that can be in fact targeted towards certain ethnic groups and that this one you didn't say it was targeted to avoid Jews, but that Jews and Ashkenazi Jews not even all Jews half of the Jews are not Ashkenazi That Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese were less susceptible to the virus Why that is anti-semitic is A puzzle to me. Is there a history in the Middle Ages of blaming Jews for plagues? Yes, there is. I have no idea if he knows that history very few non-jews do know that history and It's irrelevant to the point that he was making The reason that I am defending him is because I care about truth more than any other single thing in life and Because I also care about fighting anti-semites He is not an anti-semite He is as pro a Jew as exists in public American life so before I smear him as equivalent to Ilhan Omar Who basically supports the destruction of the state of Israel and from my perspective the destruction of the United States of America I would think twice before making that parallel Is my man still there? Yes, he is. Would you like to respond? I would If Ilhan Omar had seen said the same thing you would be livid you would be freaking out and the only reason That you give RFK a pass is because it is politically expedient for you to do so because he opposes Joe Biden This has nothing to do with you wanting to stand up for the truth about what is or is an anti-semitism. It is partisan Ideological adherence to a narrative it has nothing to do with genuinely wanting to address. Okay. All right fair enough That's your view. I Will let my listeners decide whether I am animated in this instance By my antipathy to Joe Biden or my antipathy to calling people who are pro-jewish anti-jewish But those those calls are invaluable That's what they are There is no possibility that someone with whom a person on the left differs with is Animated by a noble light noble intention. It is not possible In the meantime it is it is I invoke the Prager theory of moral bank accounts Ilhan's moral bank account visa vie Jews is zero RFK juniors moral bank account visa vie Jews is extremely high moral bank accounts matter Ilhan Omar would like to see that the only Jewish state on earth destroyed He is one of the greatest protectors of the only Jewish state on earth Ilhan Omar hates this country One of the greatest examples of ingratitude in the history of America is Ilhan Omar What we did for her family and she comes here and craps on this country But my listener loves her. I don't know why May I ask a question because I did not hear the previous hour and I imagine some listeners tuning in right now may not have What did RFK jr. Say did he are you want to play it? So we'll play it again. It's worth playing This was at a private Evening and it was but it was recorded. I don't know if he knew was recorded, but it was not a public speech. Okay We have hundreds of millions dollars into ethnically targeted micro The Chinese In fact COVID-19 there's an argument that it is ethnically Target of the 19 attack certain races Disproportionately The races that are most of you immune to cover my team are because of the of the structure of the genetic structure For traffic genetic differentials among different races of the of the receptors of the h2 receptor COVID-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and Black people the people who are most of me on our ascoma issues and and Chinese And put it right we don't know whether it's deliberately targeted that or not, but there are papers out there that show The racial and ethnic differential impact to that we do know that the Chinese are spending We are developing That's what all those labs in the Ukraine Are about they're collecting Russian DNA. They're collecting Chinese DNA We can target people by race Okay, so we said that there were two groups immune according to studies more immune, obviously they died a Chinese and an Ashkenazi Jews and so People like the caller say that's an anti-semitic comment. Why? Ask them The reason that some Jews do I understand Because in the Middle Ages whenever there was a plague Jews were blamed for starting it So Jews are hypersensitive. I'm a Jew. I am hypersensitive To that but he didn't charge that there was nothing about blaming Jews for COVID and Anyway, is he blaming Chinese? Actually, the Chinese government is to be blamed but not Chinese not the Chinese people and Also, it's a strange thing to make an anti-semitic comment only about Ashkenazi Jews half the Jews are an Ashkenazi right Sephardic. Yeah it's Anyway, as I said in my summary Everybody has moral bank accounts his life's work and and comments with regard to Jews in Israel are Are so thoroughly pro pro Israel anti anti-semitism That what is all of a sudden after a lifetime of being a pro Jew he's turned to anti Jew Well also it appears to me given what I just heard and the little that I know about this subject That one could question RFK juniors evidence one could say how are you? How are you getting that? But I don't see what about it is anti-semitic. Maybe I'm missing something but that no, no, you're not Strike me is it may it struck me as possibly outlandish. That's right. Not it might well be however I'm sorry to say I Don't think it's outlandish Well, and I would have ten years ago five years ago that there are bio weapons being Constructed with specific ethic groups in mind It's very very dangerous stuff back in a moment I Was pretty here with me is Julie Hartman I'm gonna have to play I thought I did I guess I didn't Funny I'm sure I did but Sean doesn't remember it having done it Rabbi schmooly Boteach who is a major voice In the Jewish community one of the best-known rabbis in America Been on my show a number of times for his books and Rabbi schmooly is very sensitive to anti-semitism. His life is devoted to fighting it and He Got on immediately with Robert F Kennedy jr. With whom he differs about vaccines, by the way, just for the record and Said of course what you said was not anti-semitic and he just came out Fervently in defense of RFK jr. Did you want to ask something on this Julie? I Wanted to say that you and I actually talked about this on Dennis and Julie I was next to someone on a plane once of all locations talking about this subject and This person said that no Jews were killed in 9-eleven like they evacuated the Twin Towers. I Think there is sort of this narrative Unfortunately among some people in the world that Jews escape Some kind of harm, you know that that insidious lie about 9-eleven really Jews did a really good job escaping Hitler Right, but there I'm saying there there are Holocaust deniers There are people who who think and it's of course bogus and evil that no Jews were killed on 9-eleven No, Jews were killed in the Holocaust so I can understand some sensitivity Someone like RFK jr. Saying well the virus doesn't infect Jews That being said I think your point about the moral track record is really important here because nothing at least that I know in RFK jr. Track record has indicated that he is anti Jew animus That is not true of Elon Omar the person who was brought up the question. I would like to ask RFK jr. Though is What would be the benefit and it's not a leading question. I'm genuinely curious What would be the benefit To the Chinese to engineer a virus that doesn't affect Jews I can understand the benefit not acting tiny so there are two ways of hearing his comments that it was engineered He said yes, he it might have been engineered to attack blacks and Caucasians Okay, I don't know that that's true. I have no idea. I do believe there is ethnic viral Manipulation unfortunately There's a lot of bad stuff going on with this research, but your question is very legit But he he didn't say I didn't hear him say it was Target was it was made to avoid affecting Chinese and Jews Because it's bizarre. You're a hundred percent, right? In whose interest what would it be not to infect Chinese and Ashkenazi Jews? That's why he said they're not immune No, it was a passive tense not immune is not the same as engineered to avoid, right? That is a critical distinction I mean it would make sense for the Chinese to if it's indeed true We have no idea if it's true to engineer a virus that wouldn't affect its own people But I don't understand right like there's this great pro Ashkenazi right from the Chinese group in pay in Beijing So you're going to play the the rabbi well, yeah, I gotta take it up. Yes, I will absolutely But I'm your question is excellent That's really It's a fair. I mean it's fair and it's excellent in whose interest is it to avoid? Ashkenazi Jews, but not Safari right and Chinese as the Romans would say qua bene who benefits Yes, was that wait no que que that's what I said Dennis you just heard me incorrectly you didn't say que No Just kidding. I did Hey, I'm sorry Wait que it's que what's the next word? I said, yeah who benefits what spelled que No, it's proud. See you. I know I thought it was spelled. Okay You UI anyway, look it up. Yes. I am curious myself. Oh I'm sorry, it's spelled see you. That's what I said originally. Yes. What was the other what's the second word? Ben a be en e Que bene. Yeah, to whom is it a benefit? That's right the Latin phrase coming from the Romans. Yes, okay Wayne Pennsylvania and Burke. Hello Hi Dennis You know you excited JFK and quote-unquote his statement RFK state RFK, excuse me. Yes, you his statement. It was in reference to an NIH study in Coordination with the Cleveland clinic clinic. So really wasn't his opinion. He was just citing a study so the guy who called up was a complete idiot he heard he heard what he wanted to hear to make him angry and Angry so well, he's really angry at me. He's he's secondarily angry at the RFK, but you're right Yeah, well, I didn't know it either. I didn't know Cleveland Clinic was involved in a look that up And I truly thank you for that call. I did not know Okay, let's see here let me go to some other stories because they have a ton of good ones Let's see here By the way, Julie, I reported last week this study two in five young adults think That marriage is outdated Doesn't surprise me. I know I'm sure it doesn't I Also read something Dennis forgive me, but you you'll find this of interest that by the year 2045 I believe it said an estimated 60% of married couples will have met on dating apps You know, I have no problem with that I hope they as I I've advocated dating apps as you know as our Dennis and Julie Yes, by the way, Dennis and Julie is a podcast we do and it airs today at one o'clock Eastern Pacific one o'clock Pacific for Eastern. Yeah it's really it's unique in my broadcast history, it's I Really really commend it to your attention If I were single and not a public figure I'd go on a dating app, of course I would where I don't go to bars and I'm not taking dance lessons. Where am I gonna meet a woman? I don't think you would meet anyone at a dance lesson these days Why I don't know. I just don't think there's a Heterosexual crowd. Oh I'm being honest back in a moment. It's true Okay, okay everybody Dennis Prager here And I have a story that is fascinating so this is from the Daily Mail So a Been employed by Lowe's for years she attempted to stop a gang of shoplifters left with a bruised face and She has now been fired by Lowe's for trying to stop the shoplifters Donna Hans bro 68 attempted to stop a gang of shoplifters The longtime employee of Lowe's was fired for violating company policy That states employees who witnessed shoplifting must not intervene They they stole tooth at more than $2,000 of merchandise from her store in Rincon, Georgia last month The thieves refused to go quietly and punched her repeatedly in the face Leaving her with a black eye You could see a picture of her at the Daily Mail Despite her heroic efforts standing up to the criminals Hansbrough was fired by Lowe's after 13 years for violating company policy The guy decided he wanted to be let go so he punched me and grabbed my glasses as I still held on to the cart Hansbrough who worked for Lowe's for more than 13 years Told a television interviewer Yes, ma'am, I would like to make you and the viewers aware of four more names Santiago Barola was a supermarket employee in Colorado at the King Soopers grocery store He witnessed three men who stole over five hundred dollars worth of Merchandise he took a video of them putting the merchandise in his car He was fired for taking a video of the thieves Jennifer Ferguson and Rachel Rogers were two employees at the Lululemon in Atlanta They took videos of three looters coming in and stealing merchandise they were both fired for taking video of the looters stealing merchandise and Then the fourth name is Austin Cheryl He was a 23 year old clerk at Von's here in Southern California And he was fired after he was violently assaulted three times on the job because he dared to file a workers Compensation claim this is not just a one-time incident This is happening all over the country and it supports my hypothesis that the main distinction in the United States Isn't so much a liberal conservative Democrat or Republican.

Entertaining. Okay, everybody, Dennis prager here. I have a guest that many, many, many of you know. Cat tiff, she is the co host of gutfeld, the most popular late night. Comedy show on television. And she has a book out, and I knew her as a writer well before I knew her as a, as a television personality, I guess. You can't joke about that. Why everything is funny nothing is sacred and we're all in this together. Just came out and it is a major bestseller on Amazon. So cat welcome to the Dennis prager show, first of all. Yeah, thank you so much for having me. Yeah, I think that we've been on red eye together several times back in the day when I was just starting out as a writer. That's correct. I go back a long time with you that is exactly right. So what prompted you to write this? Well, what prompted me to write this was, if you read the book, you'll see that I've been through a lot of stuff, right? And what I noticed, everything I went through, whether it was the surgery that I had or when my mom died, when I was 26 years old, all of these standard of standards of speech that were sort of put in place to protect people going through tough things actually made it worse for me because I felt like everybody around me couldn't actually speak to me. They were so scared clearly of saying anything wrong. And that added discomfort to what was already devastating. And you just kind of look at society at large. And I think that we're not really having real conversations anymore. Because we're too afraid to talk to each other. And what really can help is joking around about it and levity. And I think that as long as the conversation is well intentioned and certainly jokes are always well intentioned because they're jokes. That should be encouraged. Yes, well, there's a war on humor because humor is humorous based on truth or it's not funny. Right. Yeah, absolutely. Right. That people need to know that that's why there's so much truth in comedy. It is there's no comedy if it's not based on truth. So give me an example of some or two examples of things people won't say that you realize and wrote about. All right. Well, I made sure to try to write about everything. I didn't want to just talk the talk. I wanted to actually walk the walk too. So I mean, there's things like race, there's things like gender, but there's also things like and things like that. I think that there is the idea that if something is really sad or tragic that can't joke about it, but I really think that those are the most important things to joke about. And there's this difference, I think, between sensitivity, which real and true sensitivity and bullying, which really a lot of what's presented as sensitivity these days is actually bullying because look, I'm an emotional person. I'm a woman. I got a lot of feelings. And I'm pro speech, which speech about feelings. If I'm upset by something I'll say it. But there was such a difference between expressing that your feelings are hurt and expecting the world to revolve around your heart feelings, which that's not being sensitive, that's actually being completely self obsessed..

"Do you realize that had I read this? If I were privy to the future, and I read this article to you ten years ago. You would have thought that it was not funny, and that I had lost my mind. People would actually believe prayer had lost his mind. That a judge would rule that in the state of Minnesota. You are legally obligated to allow men to compete in the women's division in powerlifting. If there's anything where that is more obviously achieving on the part of trans female, I would like to know what it is. Leah Thomas, the trans woman, how much did Leah Thomas win by? Was it 50 seconds? Some ridiculous number. If you realize 50 seconds, those races are usually determined within one second. A minister, Minnesota judge issued a ruling last week that blocked USA powerlifting from hosting tournaments in the state over its decision to prohibit males from competing in the female division. The court demanded U.S. APL. That is USA powerlifting. Cease and desist from this unfair discriminatory practice. It is unfair to disallow biological males, from competing in female sports. So I would just ask anyone who agrees with that, why do we have any female sports at all? If males don't have a built in advantage, why keep anything restricted to females? Then we have no problem. Correct? Then anybody can compete? If we were to take the left seriously, there is only one possible solution abolish men and women sports. That would solve the entire trans dilemma. Anybody who is regarded as a homo sapien can compete. So that would include anyone, including my technical director. He could then compete because he is a homo sapien. Is that correct? You so identify. Oh, you're a flaming homo sapien. That's very funny, actually. When the organization refused the court ordered it to withdraw from Minnesota. I actually think that's a great development. I want people to start to get angry at left wing judges. And left wing legislators, that pass laws upon which judges can make these decisions. If you can't discriminate on the basis of sexual identity or gender identity, then that is the genesis of the problem. Because the simple mind does not regard the word discriminate as ever possibly a moral term. Discrimination by definition is wrong. But that's not true. We should discriminate all the time. Just not in a wrong way. You don't discriminate against people on the basis of their color, skin color. That's the obvious one. The lack of discrimination is what allows the musical world to produce noise. And some very ugly new concert halls. And it is what allows the great turd exhibit in the Netherlands as an art exhibit sculpted giant poop. They didn't discriminate. Between beauty and ugly. Discrimination is the basis of a sophisticated life. The plaintiff in this case is J C J AY capital CEE Cooper, a male athlete. That a male athlete who sued USA PL after being banned from female events, all right, so this is the national review, saying he's male, where in The New York Times would say she and female. Cooper allege that the organization had violated the Minnesota human rights act, anti discrimination statutes. And that's the story. Just for the note U.S. APL's policy drew the ire of representative U.S. AP elegant USA powerlifting. Representative Elon Omar, a giant of our time, who urged Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison to investigate the organization for violating state anti discrimination laws in a letter sent on behalf of Cooper. Omar called the notion that trans women have a quote direct competitive advantage over a biological females, a myth. You know what the beauty of these leftists like Elon Omar, they're wrong on every issue. It's not even the clock run none of the clock rule does not apply. They're not right twice a day..

"About it. We can talk about that, but we've been incredibly effective in what we do. Well, you have been and I think what happens is when you have members of Congress willing to come on your podcast, your show, and quite frankly, to reach an audience that is far greater than certainly than MSNBC and CNN combined. That is correct, yeah. And so when you reach that, your ability to go directly to the people that need to hear it, what makes you so certain that when you go on a college campus that you're going to have this cue waiting because Benny showed the university of Tampa. And I was shocked because, you know, university of Tampa is not known to be the hotbed. It's not hillsdale. That's correct, yeah. Well, look, when we talk about the younger generation broadly, 20% super woke super left wing. And then there's probably ten to 15% that would automatically just say I'm a conservative. The rest are winnable. They are persuadable. And there's this massive opportunity. By the way, we're not going to win them over by diluting our values or all of a sudden becoming neoliberals at every regard or doing what the moderates in our party want us to do. They actually are attracted to articulate deep, thoughtful, provocative stances on issues that are quote unquote thought crimes. You are not going to win over young people by saying, you know, this is the conservative case for trans surgery. No, no, no. You're going to win over young people and draw them in by saying truths that are rooted in eternal wisdom that might be repackaged in ways that can get their attention by saying something like, you know what? Actually, there are only two genders. In fact, I reject the term transgender. It's a fake term. There are two sexes and it's because God made it that way. They lose their mind, obviously. But that's part of the 20% loses there. But they're loud, but isn't that the country we're living in? That's a perfect example. The country living in, which is 20% of these incredibly antisocial, incredibly aggressive people control everything because we're afraid of what they do to us. We outnumber them. We do a vast majority of Americans think it's preposterous. That young people are being taught pornography at the age of 7. So why does it happen? And this is my message to the freedom caucus. It's my message of legislatures. My message is CEOs. We have to be comfortable using political power against our opponents and against the opposition. We have to be, this is, this is something where people get a little uneasy. So by political power, what do you mean? I mean, great it's a great question. Ron DeSantis punished Disney. The old conservative movement would say, well, who am I to possibly say that no, no, no, we have to make the opposition feel a penalty and a cost for what they're doing to us and to our voters. And so that's one example of many, right? And in Congress, that's difficult because you don't control all the chambers of power. Let me give you another example, though, right? Which is, and I want to give credit to the freedom caucus, and I think Matt was appropriate by also acknowledging Kevin McCarthy keeping his word on this. But making Eric swalwell and Elon Omar and Adam Schiff be ridiculed in public, that's a good thing. That shows that we have political power and we're willing to use it. I would go even further and say they shouldn't serve on any committees, but that's, you know, I'm unusual in that.

Madison Cawthorn certainly would tell you that he would make some different decisions, but he was treated terribly by the media and the establishment Republicans, and they tried to get rid of them. Now they are using the Madison Cawthorn playbook to try to go after many different people. I hope James O'Keefe ends up being okay through the entire saga of project veritas for human rights very closely on that. And I have not seen or heard a single thing that necessitates the departure of James O'Keefe from project veritas. Improvements, adjustments, disciplinarian meetings, fine. Whatever.

Who is terrific and is one of the most effective articulate and important voices in Congress right now. Of course The Washington Post would go after her with a long allegedly biographical story, which was completely dishonest. They would never do such a thing against Elon Omar, looking into whether or not Elon Omar falsified immigration documents because of something she may or may not have done to her brother. But some people just did something, right? Elon Omar, as her defense with her relations with her brother. Or how about Rashida Tlaib and the fact that she hates Jews or Eric swalwell who slept with a Chinese Communist Party spy repeatedly and then gave her a job in his office, but none of that would get you a in depth biographical hit job of The Washington Post, but Anna paulina Luna does because she is the youngest ever Hispanic Latina elected Latina woman elected to U.S. Congress and she joins us now. Anna, welcome to the program. Very happy to be back, Charlie. Respond to The Washington Post story. Well, first and foremost, I knew immediately that I had to go and kill shot with receipts. And so the first big allegation in flaw that they made is that they claim that I was a registered Democrat in the state of Washington of which I pointed out that Washington hasn't declared parties for registration since 2004. So that was their first retraction. And then the second retraction was they actually completely ignored the fact that during a break in that I was at in Missouri state. Back in two, I think it was 2007, 2000 ish time frame. They left me out of it all together. They said that I wasn't annotated on the police report. There was multiple different incidents. It was on 7.62 thousand ten. And ultimately, as a result of that, multiple of my coworkers ended up coming forward and going on record to various outlets like Time Magazine, People magazine, and also to Fox News to say on it didn't make up this story. This Britney Brooks person has made allegations that she owns a ghost gun. I mean, it was so absurd, but in understanding what I'm doing with the media and understanding that you have to be aggressive, you have to confront with the facts. One of the most horrifying things is that they claim that I made up the fact that my dad was incarcerated. And I paid a dollar 50. I went online and I did a public record search and I found all of my dad's charges, misdemeanors, felonies, and to say that I would make something like that up. Why would they say that? It's because they don't want young Hispanics to be reputable. And if you look at the slant of the entire article, they say that I'm not Hispanic enough, even though they cite where my grandparents immigrated from. But you know, a lot of what they do, it's character assassination. And if you don't have fine for it, you can fold, but I think that we launched a full frontal assault and we'll look forward to a more retraction soon..

How to Respond to the Concept of Systemic Racism
"Have a question here. Charlie, I keep on being told by my teacher that we are a systemically racist country. How do you suggest or recommend I respond to that? Well, that is consistent with what the ingrate Elon Omar consistently says, where she says we need to dismantle the whole system of oppression wherever we find it. Now, Elon Omar, being a beneficiary of the very country that she now wants to dismantle again of people that I have probably the most frustration with and discussed with Elon Omar would be near the top. Her entire life, she lives a life of luxury and convenience. Thanks to the nation that she now wants to dismantle that she calls a pressed. Elon Omar is just parroting postmodern post structuralist, quite honestly, Marx is talking points that really came into focus 1912, 1916 with the presidency of Woodrow Wilson, one of America's worst presidents. Here's Elon Omar cut 61 saying we need to dismantle the whole system of oppression wherever we find it. Honestly, this should be the reason she's kicked off committees. In addition to her anti Jew bigotry, play cut 61. As long as our economy and political systems prioritize profit without considering its profiting, who is being shut out, we will perpetuate this inequality. So we can not stop at criminal justice system. We must begin the work of dismantling the whole system of oppression wherever we find it. The whole system of oppression, what does she mean by that? She means private property rights. If there was to be a single issue, where the American left and conservatives disagree the most, it would be the issue of private property. And that's not an insignificant issue. Unfortunately, that issue becomes far too abstract. Because it seems as if oh, that's just an economic. No, that's a moral difference. In the original draft of the United States, Declaration of Independence, the Declaration of Independence for the United States, I should say. It was life liberty and property when John Locke wrote about the need to own property. It was a moral argument that the government the state does not have the right to what you have earned

Global news powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts and more than 120 countries in San Francisco. I met Baxter and this is Bloomberg. All right, thanks very much, Ed. Coming off the heels of yesterday's fed decision. I convinced founder and CEO Kathy Woods says that she would not be surprised to see a rate cut in 2023. She discussed her outlook on inflation and the fed with Bloomberg's Carol Massa. I saw an exaggerated reaction last year to fears that inflation and interest rates were embedded in the system like they were in the 70s and we just didn't believe that at all. In fact, we were seeing a lot of early signs of inflation coming down actual deflation surfacing. So this does not surprise us. I think what has happened here, there are three people who have weighed in and in the last week who really have changed their points of view. One is Larry summers. Larry summers was almost apoplectic last year. So this is the former treasury secretary. Right. Almost eclectic about inflation. And I think he truly influenced the fed because he was so sure that we were in a 70s style inflation. If you'll notice in the last week, he said, okay, now don't signal what you're going to do in the future. We're seeing some economic weakness here. And I think the other thing he was saying, not explicitly was, hey, surprises are coming down that I didn't expect to come down. You know, the oil prices roughly half of where it was last march. So that's the first person. The second person was treasury secretary Janet Yellen. And remember, I think the market last year got really upset when she changed her mind on transitory. And I think that fed chairman Powell as well. And turned him into an even more hawkish mode, along with the rest of the Ford board members. She this week said that now that inflation is coming down, we're probably going to be looking at the bigger risk being kind of mired in low inflation low growth. That was a big change. And it effectively says, wow, maybe it was transitory after all. It was just a little longer than we expected. Who knew supply chain problems would last two to three years? Who knew Russia would invade? And then the third, the third thing that happened, this was really important, I think, in the Q&A, chairman Powell himself said, I agree with Lyle brainard. We do not believe we're in the middle of a wait price spiral. And that's another code phrase for the 70s style inflation. So I think that is what the market's responding to. Kathy, you've talked about that the threat of deflation. So what's your view on that versus inflation right here? Well, a couple of things. We see the deflation in the pipeline because commodity prices, which are at the top of the funnel, have been coming down on balance. Now, we're seeing right now, some interruptions in that as China moves away from it zero COVID policy. But I think the fake out here is China has been building inventories, particularly of energy. It's been getting rushes energy for 40% discount to what the rest of us are paying. So why wouldn't it build inventories? So I think that fear is probably going to be or has been a little overblown in terms of ramifications for inflation. And I also don't China's China is taking off. But anyway, we have the funnel we had at holiday time, massive discounting. And even though we had massive discounting in the fourth quarter, inventory accumulation accelerated, that was the biggest surprise to me. The founder and CEO of investment management there, and

Ilhan Omar Getting Booted From the Foreign Affairs Committee
"It looks like today Ilhan Omar is going to be kicked off the House foreign affairs committee and this also means that Ilhan Omar will no longer be the top Democrat on the subcommittee on Africa. This is something that she has taken great pride in. And so this is a kind of a blow to Ilhan Omar and she's been fighting hard against it now for a several days it looked like this might not happen. In other words, it looked like Kevin McCarthy had the votes to boot swalwell to boot Adam Schiff, but not to boot Ilhan Omar for a couple of reasons. One is that there is one Republican who thought that Elon Omar was doing a pretty good job on the committee. There was another Ken buck who's been on this podcast and Ken buck, I think, was taking the principled view that, hey, listen, just because the Democrats threw Republicans off their committees doesn't mean that we, the Republicans should throw the Democrats off their committees, Ken buck, I think, was joining the, let's call it we're better than they are school of politics. We should sort of show them by example that this is the right way to do things. And then Nancy mace, she's the one I think who was opposed to removing Ilhan Omar. But Kevin McCarthy basically did what good leaders do, which is he started pulling these people into a back room and having a little bit of a talk with them. And out of the three, he convinced two to swap their vote. So Ken buck now and a Victoria spartz have agreed to vote to remove Ilhan Omar, they insisted upon a provision that she gets a chance to quote appeal her removal, which is kind of a worthless thing to do because that appeal is not going to very likely succeed. And so Ilhan Omar is going to be out of there.

Charlie Assesses Kevin McCarthy's Latest Actions as Speaker
"This constant controversy about whether or not Eric swalwell, who almost assuredly slept with a Chinese spy and Adam Schiff, who was just a pathological liar, should be on the house Intel committee. Now Kevin McCarthy, who many of you in this audience, you were rather brutal and dare I say it cruel towards Kevin McCarthy, made a promise when he wanted to become Speaker of the House that he was not going to put swalwell or shift on the committees. And he's making good on that promise, and the Democrats are losing their mind. The Speaker of the House has the ability to block certain members of Congress from going on committees. Kevin McCarthy is using that power and he is basically sending a memo and a message to the Democrats. You guys keep on screening us the way you did with the January 6th committee. You try to block some of our members from committees. We're not going to play ball with that. We're not going to allow Elon Omar and swalwell and Schiff to be able to sit on these Intel committees that require not just access to you have access to confidential information, but they leak it regularly. They abuse it, and by the way, Omar was foreign affairs just to be clear. Who's to say that Eric swalwell, who slept with the Chinese spy, would not continue to misuse or abuse classified or confidential information. Isn't that the whole saga right now is around the mishandling of classified information?

What Adam Schiff did use his power as a chairman and lied to the American public, even the inspector general said it. When Devin Nunes put out a memo, he said it was false. When we had a laptop, he used it before an election to be politics and say that it was false and said it was the Russians. When he knew different. So no, he does not have a right to sit on that. So yes, he can serve on a committee, but he will not serve on Intel, because it goes to the national security of America. And

Bernie Sanders May Actually Be Right About Something
"When I saw this clip of Bernie Sanders, basically complaining that we're living under an oligarchy, it made me take pause because we're talking a lot about oligarchies right now, and oligarchs, especially with what's happening with Russia and Ukraine. And it hit perfectly on a message that I've been trying to communicate for quite some time about what's coming next. What is the, what are the conditions of the country going to look like? So people ask me all the time, Charlie, why do young people tend to reject capitalism? Why do they not believe in free markets? Why do they not believe in private property rights? Now part of it, of course, is the university system and the government run education system. But there's another game at play here that we must recognize and we must realize. Bernie Sanders and AOC and Elon Omar, they know how to make socialists. They know the language to use. They know the diction, which is the word selection to engage in. So I want to play this tape here of Bernie Sanders. Talking about how we are living in a oligarchy. He basically says, if anyone thinks we don't live in an oligarchy in this country is solely mistaken. In our country, we have two people who own more wealth than the bottom 40% of the American population. Play cut one O one. And that is that the people on top, the very wealthiest people in our country are doing phenomenally well. And in fact, have never had it so good. But anybody who thinks that we don't have an oligarchy in this country is surely mistaken. In our country today, we have two people who own more wealth than the bottom 40% of the American population. So we fact checked Bernie Sanders on this. And he's right. Two people own more wealth than 40% of the American population.

Senatorial Candidate Adam Laxalt Explains How Nevada Could Flip Red
"So Adam, some people have their doubts about a Republican winning statewide in Nevada, something you've done before. But tell us about how you think this year it can actually be done. I mean, Clark county, it's a beast. There's a lot of fraud, a lot of corruption, a lot of dead voters that are still on the rolls. Why do you feel this year? You're going to be able to conquer that giant. Yeah, first, I have one state wide on the former attorney general of the state. We won in 2014 when we had a red environment and I think that people need to understand that even in these slightly blue tilting years, this race has been this state has been razor thin. Trump lost the battle by two points, it's been well documented. That's with them changing our election, giving us mail in ballot, ballot harvesting all that kind of stuff. Senator masto only won by two points in 2016. Harry Reid was the majority leader in 16. You can't imagine how much how many chips he called in to get her in the office. And so we have the perfect opportunity and a state that has been ever so slightly blue to flip this seat in one last thing, the vaunted Harry Reid machine has slowly but surely been crumbling and the Democrats socialists and I don't mean that as just a tagline. They're actually self described and self named socialist took over the Democrat party here in Nevada. They invite the likes of Elon Omar to be guest speakers in our state. All these things make it prime for us to take the message to the voters and flip Nevada in

Canada Emulates China as Big Banks Crack Down on Truckers
"Just disgusted by what I'm seeing happening right now in a country that I think we all thought was more aligned with us and it really is. Although these days, I worry about the U.S. and that is Canada. And what we have learned today and this comes to us via a report out of Bloomberg is that the Canadian bankers association apparently confirmed that the royal Canadian mounted police has alerted banks to a list of names and made it available. In fact, christia Freeland, who's now the finance minister, used to be a contributor back at CNBC. When I worked there, she's now the finance minister and she's saying that some accounts have already been frozen. So they are making a very concerted effort here to try and shut down these freedom convoys as they're now known. Truckers who are saying, wait a second, candidate, you've gone too far. You have stolen effectively our right our ability to take care of ourselves and our family with all onerous mandates. And enough is enough. And they have the right to say that. And thus far had very peaceful protests, but because problematic because it's inconvenient because it's going to threaten supply chains according to prime minister Trudeau, they don't want them there. They don't want them protesting. And instead of sitting down with them and maybe some leadership from the freedom convoys and saying, okay, how can we work through this together? Maybe we ought to rethink some of these ridiculous mandates that have made it so difficult for the people of Canada, including the working people of Canada instead of doing that, the answer is to somehow either docks them, as we've seen, even Elon Ilhan Omar was upset about that one, saying, okay, enough is enough. You don't need to dox people because they gave 200 bucks to the freedom convoys. I mean, when Elon Omar is siding with the truckers, I think that Trudeau indeed has quite a problem. But basically, these are emergency orders that they've put into effect. And they would affect every participant in the Canadian financial system. So banks investment firms, credit unions, loan companies, securities, dealers, fundraising platforms that would be like the GoFundMe, et cetera. As well as payment and clearing services and they're basically saying, okay, these people have to have their accounts frozen. You need to report any activity to the Royal Canadian mounted

What Republicans Are Planning if They Win the House Majority
"What are Republicans going to run on? And more importantly, what are they going to do if they take back the House of Representatives? Will a newly released article from Washington examiner goes through that? What Republicans are planning to do if they win back the House majority? And we're going to go piece by piece of what they are promising their voters. And it's about time that we hold our elected officials accountable because if you're like me, you're probably exhausted and tired and cynical that Republicans keep on winning elections. And we lose the country. The parents party, the Republican Party, plans, and promises that if they take back the House of Representatives similar to the contract with America, now why Republicans do not replicate the contract with America every election cycle is beyond me, but Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans, including Jim Jordan and some phenomenal base conservatives, have said they are going to replicate the Newt Gingrich contract with America. They're going to call it commitment to America. It's not that great. I don't love that. It should be a lot more aggressive than a commitment. It should be applied, or it should be something that is unbreakable an oath, commitment sounds like something that's some shady business guy will break. Okay. Number one, here's what Republicans plan to do. I like some of this. I think this is some grassroots driven energy. Some of it's all right, but some of it is phenomenal. Pass a parent's Bill of rights, Republicans in November released draft legislation that aimed to require school districts to post curriculum publicly, require teachers to offer two in person meetings per year, prevent schools from selling or sharing student data without parent permission and require students to notify parents of violent activity on school grounds. It's really basic stuff. McCarthy said on a recent episode. Next one, China, COVID-19 accountability measures, a plan released by House Republicans trying to task force last year called for legislation to declassify information on the origins of COVID-19, prohibiting the U.S. funding from gain of function research. So here's where I think they're taking a good approach. They need to use their newfound political power for aggressive oversight. That's actually the next point. Take an aggressive oversight posture. In the minority Republicans on committees can do not have the power to compel witnesses to speak under oath, and the majority Republicans aim to use that power liberally. Particularly if they do not have a supermajority to overcome filibuster in the Senate or override any vetoes from President Biden. Republicans want to investigate the following. How we had the U.S. troops withdraw from Afghanistan and giving them $85 billion in weapons. The origins of where COVID came from, the national school board association's relationship with the Department of Justice and asked if federal agencies threatened to stop threats of violence. Also, what's happening on the U.S. Mexico border? Republicans have already issued preservation notices and document requests to relevant agencies and individuals related to these items. They're going to eliminate House rules implemented by Pelosi, kind of technical stuff like masked men not being able to vote by proxy and vote remotely. Take on big tech. They're going to put forward a framework to take on big tech calls to reform section two 30, prevent the companies from discriminating based on political affiliation, an increase their transparency. Also, back a antitrust bill that would give states attorneys attorney generals more control over where antitrust litigation is conducted, and then strip House Democrats from certain committees, in retaliation for Democrats removing Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul gosar, House Republicans plan to strip Elon Omar, saying that she should not be on the foreign affairs committee, and Adam Schiff should not be on the intelligence committee, which he's currently the chairman. Nor should Eric swalwell be on the intelligence committee or the Homeland Security committee. This is actually okay. Would you agree Connor? This is actually some pretty good

Sen. Joe Manchin Just Killed 'Build Back Better' and Progressives Are Losing It
"The people that are puritanical market types, they talk about creative destruction. And you and I love markets. But we think not all destruction is made equal, but the destruction of build back better is a beautiful thing. Yes, it sure is. And so let's play the tape of Bernie Sanders, Elon Omar, ayanna Pressley Cori Bush. They're all freaking out over Joe Manchin's moves, swear words are bleeped out for the FCC play cut ten. But if he doesn't have the courage to do the right thing for the working families of West Virginia and America, let them vote no in front of the whole world. We all know that senator mentioned couldn't be trusted. The excuses that he just made. I think our complete he has continued to move the goal post. He is never negotiated in good faith. And he is obstructing the president's agenda. AJ, all I want for Christmas is a senator that has compassion for the American people and not contempt. I'm going to be looking for the phone number to the ghost of Christmas past present and future or the email address to see if they can go and see about Scrooge on Christmas Eve. I'm sorry, not screwed up. Senator mat know who you're talking about. Alex? It's just, it's so delightful because it's so stupid. It's such a horrible strategy. I met senator Manchin. I think he's the only Democrat senator who's ever been on my radio program, which by the way is a podcast now, right? Thanks very much for the free plot. Well, you've let me plug our podcast on your side. Quite a bit and I will in the future as well. I think it's a big growing ecosystem. We want self reinforcing growth. But I vet center ancient senior mansion is not this is not going to change his mind. A bunch of people ranting on left wing talk. Of course it does. Of course it does. So I love to see it not only as a great fodder for talk radio, but it's also going to hurt the left wing.

Wokelash Comes Back to Bite Democrats
"The woke lash that we experienced this week. Is being interpreted by different camps in the Democrat party. The Democrat party's not really sure how to proceed. So, on one side, you say we were not, radical enough. That's Elon Omar, AOC. They say they didn't do CRT enough. David plot. We have Stephanie cutter, James carville, who came out and said that we need a woke detox. Well let me tell you, let me just kind of end the suspense for you if you will. That Democrats made a decision right as Floyd a palooza was beginning in last June. As Floyd a palooza was happening, and we had $3 billion in damages across the country, Wendy's on fire, police officers getting shot, Democrats saw a kinetic political energy that they wanted to seize for their own machiavellian, short term. Power goals. They didn't care about the cost. They made an all in bet on the racial arguments that this was going to be as significant as powerful as persuasive and as permanent. As the sudden shift on gay marriage in America. The Democrat consultants, the corporate hacks, they all said okay. The same way that Americans attitudes on gay marriage change dramatically in almost 5 years, that is going to be the case with race. That we are going to be we have to be ahead of this thing and we want to be the party of woke.

I just want to make sure that we're not because there is this hate among some for Dr Fauci. Or public health officials or things like that. I just want to make sure that we're not Taking that and using it to create some kind of moral equivalency between the United States and our role in all of this and China. Okay, because we're seeing a lot of this. Attempt at outrageous examples of moral equivalency from people like Elon Omar right now, who Is trying to lump in Israel. And the U. S with Hamas and the Taliban. Okay? Not the same, not the same. We In this pandemic. Have helped create the vaccines that are going to save hundreds of thousands milk tens of millions of lives. Around the world. China. They lied about The coronavirus. The very beginning stages of this pandemic. They covered it up. They misled the rest of the world. And that is directly responsible for much of the death and destruction that we've seen. So even if we take the lab out of the equation, and look there are a number of different ways This thing could have originated. It could have been an experiment gone wrong in the lamb. It could have been innocent, mistaken lab. It could have been something more nefarious in the lab. It could have been something at the wet market. It could have been something some cave. I mean, we just don't know. I've always found it a little. More than coincidental that there is a lab doing this kind of stuff in the very place where the pandemic originated from. But look, I'm open to whatever we do need to get to the bottom of it. But there's a difference between the virus. Originating in China. However, it did or even innocently just because of a wet market. And everything else that took place after that China's role in all of this There's got to be some accountability and some punishment here. 809 69 93 52 is the number. Let me get to Joe in Clearwater, Joe, Thanks for the call. Okay. Thanks. Um, I find it interesting that nobody seems to be talking about the fact that Pfizer actually has a facility in Wuhan, and it's kind of interesting that they're the first ones with approval for their vaccine. Why they've been creating and working on Mrna vaccines for a long time now. Oh, God, I can't. All right, if you look Hey, man, If you want to go down that rabbit hole and think that Pfizer created a virus so they can make a bunch of money off of the vaccine. Look, I can't help you. This isn't the show for you. That's something that maybe you call up like George Nori in the middle of the night on on coast to coast AM and go down the rabbit hole with him. I I don't really look everybody with these conspiracy theories who's organized enough To pull something like that off. I mean, Come on. It's possible just that fighters one of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the entire world, they've been doing the research on M RNA vaccines for a long time. Now, as has Moderna. And they both came out with them at about the same time fights are a little bit ahead. Fighters is also more complicated. You can't necessarily utilize it in certain situations. That's why more Americans been getting the Moderna vaccine. Uh, look If that's what you wanted. I never understand why people Seem to want to go down that rabbit hole. There's evidence to go down that rabbit hole beyond just, you know, some theory that somebody posted on the Internet then I get it. But Some people seem to want that kind of stuff to be tried it just I don't understand that 809 69 93 52 is number 809 69 93 52, Belgium is actually the home to the largest Pfizer plant in the world, and that's why they're pissed off. About how we handled the America first policy when it came to vaccines here in the U. S, Although, of course we're going to do that, And we should absolutely do that. You take care of this country first. It's that works. 809 69 93 52 is the number lots more still to come, including.
