1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,519 Speaker 1: Donald Trump addresses the nation, trying to dig the nation 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: out of the Joe Biden ditch. Did it work well? 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: The numbers tell a somewhat complicated tale. Meanwhile, Benjapiro delivers 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: a big speech at the Heritage Foundation. Today is also 5 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: day one of Turning Point USA's big Amfest conference out 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,959 Speaker 1: in Phoenix, Arizona. There's a lot going on. We've got 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 1: the details on today's episode of The Josh Hammer Show. 8 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 1: Donald Trump addressed as the nation last night on December seventeenth. Now, 9 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: there was a lot of rumors flying around prior to 10 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: the speech. The White House kept the pre tight lid 11 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: as to what the contents of this actual speech would be, 12 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: and there was a lot of guessing going around as 13 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: to what the subject or subjects might be. More on 14 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: that in just a second, turns out that Donald Trump 15 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: primarily wanted to talk about, and indeed primarily did talk about, 16 00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: the economy. We have covered the economy a great length 17 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: on this show. It is our working thesis here in 18 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: The Josh Hammer Show that it very much still is 19 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: the economy stupid. Far be it from me to wax 20 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: poetic about the great virtues and the great political instincts 21 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: and so forth of James Carville, the long standing Democratic 22 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: Party poohba and the main right hand of the Bill 23 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: Clinton campaign back nine ninety two. But his line from 24 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: now three plus decades ago that it's the economy stupid, 25 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: very much still resonates, and especially since the off off 26 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: your elections that took place about a month and a 27 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: half ago, primarily those in New York City with Zora Mamdani, 28 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: those in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and those in New 29 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: Jersey and elsewhere. It has been our working thesis that 30 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: it really still is the economy, and that message increasingly 31 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: is being heard loud and clearly in the White House. 32 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: Susie Wilde's chief of staff has not minced words when 33 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: it comes to her understanding that it indeed still is 34 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: the economy stupid. Donald Trump himself understanding that as well. 35 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: That is why they Dispatchedald Trump about a couple of 36 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: weeks ago to the Pocono Mountains in eastern Pennsylvania to 37 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: deliver the first of his affordability Tour campaign style speeches. 38 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: When it comes to the economy, he is going to 39 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: next hit the road in the states of North Carolina. 40 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: So they're starting in some swing states here Pennsylvania North 41 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 1: Carolina being two of the marquee seven swing states in 42 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: the country. But last night it was time for the 43 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: President to address the country directly when it came to 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: the economy, and he did so in a campaign style 45 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: speech that was in the White House. So this was 46 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: this is an official White House speech. This is not 47 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: a campaign speech. It was done at the White House itself. 48 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: There it had the trappings and all the official to 49 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: coronery thing of the Office of the Presidency of the 50 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: United States. It was carried by the network television CBSNBC, ABC, 51 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: of course, cable news and so forth. There it did 52 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: have something of a campaign flare. That was one of 53 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: my first instincts watching this speech, which ran roughly eighteen minutes. 54 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: To give our twoke and length. The President spoke, spoke 55 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: very quickly, and he spoke very impassionately. It's felt in 56 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: many ways somewhat similar to a campaign speech. He was 57 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 1: going through a lot of economictatistics attempting to show the 58 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: American people about the economy is a lot better than 59 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: the polling right now indicates. The American people, frankly think 60 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: the economy is so For instance, here is Donald Trump 61 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: speaking about how prices and inflation in general affordability has 62 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: actually gone substantially better during his administration compared to the bidmeinstration. 63 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: Go ahead and watch this clib. 64 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: Here at home. We're bringing our economy back from the 65 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: brink of ruin to last administration and their allies in 66 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: Congress looted our treasury for trillions of dollars, driving up 67 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: prices and everything at levels never seen before. I am 68 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: bringing those high prices down and bringing them down very fast. 69 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: Let's look at the facts. Under the Biden administration, car 70 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: prices rose twenty two percent and in many states thirty 71 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: percent or more. Gasoline rose thirty to fifty percent. Hotel 72 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: rates rose thirty seven percent, airfares rose thirty one percent. Now, 73 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 2: under our leadership, they are all coming down, and coming 74 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: down fast. Democrat politicians also sent the Court of Grocery staring, 75 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 2: but we are solving that too. The price of a 76 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: Thanksgiving turkey was down thirty three percent compared to the 77 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 2: Biden last year. The price of eggs is down eighty 78 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: two percent since March, and everything else is falling rapidly, 79 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: and it's not done yet. But boy, are we making progress. 80 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 2: Nobody can believe what's going on. 81 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: So he's he's correct, emphasized that is a work in progress. 82 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: That that is a very very important thing to emphasize 83 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: because as nice as the economic statistics are, and we 84 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: actually just got the latest monthly inflation number this morning, 85 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: coming in at two point seven percent, which is a 86 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: slight reduction from the two point nine to three percent 87 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: we were most recently at, still sadly above the federal 88 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: reserves targets of two percent inflation there, but two point 89 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: seven percent is really not terribly bad. The unemployment rate 90 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: recently actually did spike from four point four to four 91 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: point six percent. That's the highest number there on the 92 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: unemployment metric that we've seen in some years now. I 93 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: think the point that I've been trying to communicate here 94 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: for a while is that as sound as the economic 95 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: metrics are, for the most part, virtually everybody look at it. 96 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: I mean, four point six percent. Sure, it's a little 97 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: higher than maybe you would like. I mean, ideally you 98 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: want to get the number down below four percent, which 99 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: is where it was for large swats by the way 100 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: of the first Trump presidency. But four point six percent 101 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: is really not terrible inflation two wins percent. Again, it's 102 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: not necessarily exactly where it should be, but it's definitely 103 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: not terrible. Private sector job growth creation continues to generally 104 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: be strong, other than the notable exception of the month 105 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: of October, which saw a net hemorrhaging of jobs, but overall, overall, 106 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: most of the economic fund the mental especially when you 107 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: talk about the stock mark, when you talk about Wall Street, 108 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: we talk about retirement accounts following case and pension plans 109 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: for federal employees. There this where you started to seeing 110 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: that a lot of the economic metrics really are sound. However, 111 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: what we've also been saying is that to an extent, 112 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: and this where things I think get a little more complicated. 113 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: To an extent, it doesn't, unfortunately, necessarily matter exactly how 114 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: the economic metrics are looking when the American people are 115 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: still telling polsters that they are frustrated with how things 116 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: are going. So, for instance, there was a new poll 117 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: that came out of just this week from Marist College. 118 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: Maris College from New York State, not far from where 119 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: I grew up actually there, and according to this new 120 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: poll out this week, it's a pole focusing on how 121 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: Americans feel about the economy out from Maris College, thirty 122 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: six percent thirty picks thirty six percent Americans approve of 123 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: the way that Donald Trump is handling the economy. That's 124 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,679 Speaker 1: not great. I mean, I'm sorry to be the bearer 125 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: Bend News, but it just is what it is. That 126 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: is a low for Maris College in that poll. Breaking 127 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,799 Speaker 1: down the poll a little bit further, sixty one percent 128 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: of Americans say that the economy is not working well 129 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: for them personally. Seventy percent of Americans say the cost 130 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: of living where they live is not very affordable or 131 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: not affordable at all. Thirty five percent of Americans claim 132 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: their finances have gotten worse over the past twelve months. 133 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: Twenty four percent of Americans report that their monthly expenses 134 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: exceed their monthly income. And unfortunately, even a majority of voters, 135 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: according to his Maras Pole telp polsters of the Democratic 136 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: Party is better equipped than the Republican Party to actually 137 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: handle the economy. Now. Voters' minds are infamously fickle, and 138 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: I happen to agree with the President's general thrust of 139 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: his message. I wholeheartily agree that what we saw under 140 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was so bad When it came to the 141 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: economy when it came to forty plus year high inflation 142 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: reaching nine point one percent in twenty twenty two. You know, 143 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: think about just logically how inflation works when you have affordability, 144 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: the cost of the general price of goods and services 145 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: that goes of that quickly that much that quickly there, 146 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna take time for it to trickle down. Think 147 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: about going out to eat in a restaurant. We're gonna 148 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,679 Speaker 1: have mass inflation when it comes to things like chicken 149 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: or eggs, or produce or beef, whatever the case may be. There, 150 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: it's gonna take time for the actual supply chain to 151 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: work its way and ultimately kind of getting to the 152 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: actual price that you see at the drive through at 153 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: McDonald's or you go sit down in an Applebee's, or 154 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. It takes actual time for 155 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: that to pan out there. And here we are where 156 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: now just over three years, three to three and a 157 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: half years after that summertime twenty twenty two, nine point 158 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: one percent inflation high. And it makes all the sense 159 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: in the world to me that a lot of what 160 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: we're still seeing when it comes to Americans saying that 161 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: they are frustrated that they are still seeing the after 162 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: shock effects of the bime economy. So I don't really 163 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: doubt what the President is saying here and the thrust 164 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: of his message at all. All I am saying is 165 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: that the American people still are are frustrated. And the 166 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 1: only equipple I have with the President's speech is I 167 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: would have liked to have seen more of what we 168 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: saw there at the tail end of that clip we 169 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: just saw. I would have liked to see a little 170 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: bit more of the presidents saying that this is still 171 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: a work in progress. I know you're frustrated. I know, 172 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: John Smith, I know Mary Jane Johnson. I know you're 173 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: so frustrated. I know that you still feel like you're 174 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: living paycheck to paycheck, which, by the way, two thirds 175 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: of Americans feel like they are. I know that you 176 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: feel like it's more difficult than it should be to 177 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: try to fill up your truck to go to work there, 178 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: to get groceries for the family without having to make 179 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: tough trade offs at the supermarket aisle. I would I 180 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: would have liked to have heard a little more empathy 181 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: and a little less of a feeling that I was 182 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: being lectured to and be told that I should be 183 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: grateful for the accoum because this is the kind of thing, unfortunately, 184 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: that we saw Karine Jean Pierre do often when she 185 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: was the horrific White House Press secretary for Joe, this 186 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: message that the commie actually is better than you realize 187 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: and it should be grateful. Now. It was a ridiculous lie. 188 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: By the way. Okay, that's the big difference. When the 189 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: Biden regime was telling you that the commune is better, 190 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 1: they were lying out of their rear ends. Because the 191 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: e commyne actually stuck. It was a flaming bag of poop. 192 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: The comedy now is structurally better based on some of 193 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: the metrics that we've just recited, and plenty of other 194 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: metrics as well. However, the aftershock effect is taking too long, 195 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: So I would have liked to have seen a little 196 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: more empathy in general. But again I understand where Trump 197 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 1: is coming from. It it's detally frustrating if you're the 198 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: leader and you're looking at these metrics and you don't 199 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: see that necessarily showing over the pulls. It wasn't actually 200 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: just in the communy speech, the even more general thrust. 201 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: This speech kind of zooming out from just the ecmedy 202 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: was just how epically the Biden administration messed up. So, 203 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: for instance, here was President Trump talking as well about 204 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: how we have managed to reduce illegal border crossings by 205 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: over at ninety percent. Here's President Trump. 206 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: Last do you remember when Joe Biden said that he 207 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 2: needed Congress to pass legislation to help close the border. 208 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 2: He was always blaming Congress and everyone else. As it 209 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 2: turned out, we didn't need legislation, We just needed a 210 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 2: new president. 211 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: Okay, And many of us argue this, by the way, 212 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: when Joe Biden was president, is actually a provision of 213 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: immigration law, of the Immigration Nationality Act, which to this 214 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: day remains the main immigration law on the books. There's 215 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: a section called eleven eighty two f which essentially delegates 216 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: from Congress to the president the ability to shut down 217 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: as much immigration as you need for essentially discretionary, arbitrary reasons. 218 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: A lot of folks don't realize how much discretionary power 219 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: the president actually has here. So this notion that Joe 220 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: Biden was peddling and Karine Jean Pierre, I mean Jill, 221 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: remember this, They said over and over and over again. 222 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,959 Speaker 1: Congress is not acting Congress must pass legislation there. It's 223 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: actually not true. The immigration nationality at the action immigration 224 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: laws already the gate to the President's a ton ton 225 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: of authority when it comes to actually shutting down the border, 226 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 1: which is why Donald Trump hasn't be able to do 227 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: it without Congress passing a single darn piece of legislation 228 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: of notes or import on this front. So he's exactly 229 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: around that. If anything, though, maybe maybe the highlight actually 230 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: of the speech last night was a wonderful, wonderful shout 231 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: out the seventeen seventy six Warrior Dividend that Donald Trum 232 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: announced for America's armed service men and women. Go ahead 233 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: and watch. 234 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: This because of tariffs. Along with the just passed one 235 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 2: big beautiful bill tonight, I am also proud to announce 236 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: that more than one thousand, four hundred fifty thousand, think 237 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: of this, one million, four hundred and fifty thousand military 238 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: service members will receive a special we call Warrior dividend 239 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: before Christmas. So Warrior Dividend, in honor of our nations 240 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: founding in seventeen seventies, we are sending every soldier one thousand, 241 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventy six dollars. Think of that, and 242 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: the checks are already on the way, all right. 243 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: So I love the symbolism of this. I also just 244 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: love it on the merits is exactly the kind of 245 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: policy that is just as righteous by the way, that 246 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: that is good for military morale, especially in the time 247 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: where the left wing media complex is coming at Secretary 248 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: of War Pete Hegseth yet again with all they've got, 249 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: this most recent fabricated faux controversy over the infamous second 250 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: strike on the Narco terrorists. We've thoroughly debunked that here 251 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: previously on the Josh Ammer Show. That at a time 252 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: when they're coming after Pete hegset when they're coming after 253 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: the military, the top ranking brass, even the commander in 254 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: chief himself, President Trump, with all they've got, is exactly 255 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that is good for military morale. 256 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: And this ultimately is the kind of thing I think 257 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: that has a real chance, potentially, potentially potentially of salvaging 258 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: Republican losses or maybe even resulting in mild Republican gains. 259 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: Excuse me at the mid term ballot box next November, 260 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 1: because here is a key point. Those Maris College economic 261 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: polling numbers that I read to you earlier, not great, 262 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: to put it, mild lead. But the saving grace for 263 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and the Republican Party that he leads is this. 264 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: The saving grace is that while the Republican Party and 265 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: the trumpministration right now are not necessarily at their peak popularity, 266 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is what is still to this day 267 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: in one of its most unpopular low points, still in 268 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: the entire polling history of that particular party. So, for instance, 269 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: here is our friends Harry Enton of CNN. Harry's going 270 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: to join tomorrow show. By the way, he is a 271 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: longtime personal friend and he is the polling guru over 272 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: at CNN. Here is Harry Enton on CNN talking about 273 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: how the Democrat's popularity is lower than the dead sea. 274 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: Let's watch Harry Enton. 275 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: Krats in the minds of the American public are lower 276 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 3: than the dead sea. What are we talking about. Well, 277 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 3: let's take a look the net approval rating for Democrats 278 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 3: in Congress, use said of Kate Balwin, the lowest ever. 279 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: Look at this. 280 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 3: Overall, they are fifty five points underwater. Their approval rating 281 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 3: is south of twenty percent. It's even worse when you 282 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 3: look at independence. Look at this negative sixty one points. 283 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: That means that their approval rating is sixty one points lower. 284 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: Than their disapproval rating. 285 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 3: Quinnipiac has been pulling this question for the better part 286 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 3: of the twenty first century. They have never found Democrats, 287 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 3: at least those in Congress in worse shape than they 288 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 3: are right now. 289 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 4: That's independence and overall, But what about Democrats on Democrats? 290 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: Yeah? 291 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 3: What about democrats on Democrats? So part of the reason 292 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: overall is solo is Independence are driving it low. But 293 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 3: that's not the only reason it's solo. What about democrats 294 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 3: on democrats? Democrats and that approval rating of congressional democrats. 295 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 3: I want you to keep in mind they had never 296 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 3: rated democrats negatively until this year. And right now, what 297 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 3: are we talking about. We're talking about a net approval 298 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 3: rating from democrats. This is democrats and democrats their upprof 299 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 3: ring is actually lower. 300 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: All right, So pretty powerful stuff there from Harry Enton again, 301 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: looking forward to chat with Harry on tomorrow show. Harry 302 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: and I we lively go back to when we're eighteen 303 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: years old, more or less right around that age. It's 304 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: been amazing to watch his stratospheric rise over at CNM. 305 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: But the subsetant point is this that while Republicans may 306 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: be struggling with their popularity, Democrat's popularity is at an 307 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: absolute nator. It is as low as has been in 308 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: the entire history of modern Poland. So what that translates 309 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: to for the trumpinistiration and from the Republican Party as 310 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: we start to gear up even more intently for the 311 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six midterms in near November, what that translates 312 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: to in concrete terms is as false. Each and every day, 313 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: you should ask yourself two questions. One, what am I 314 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: doing today to make sure the American people understand the 315 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: Democratic Party is terrible, that the American people are still 316 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: feeling the effects of the buyer regime when it comes 317 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: to catastrophic inflation, when it comes to the catastrop of 318 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: border invasion, the millions and millions of unvetted, criminally inclined 319 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: illegal aliens gushing over the border. What am I doing 320 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: to make sure that the American people understand that the 321 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,880 Speaker 1: Democrats are radical, they are out of touch, and that 322 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: you that you specifically that you are still feeling the 323 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: aftershock effects of the hell that they wrought during the 324 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: buying administration. That's point number one. Point number two is 325 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: not the negative point but the positive. Point Number two 326 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: is what are you doing today, like today, like literally today, 327 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: day and d and why what are you doing today 328 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: to try to better improve the economic hopes, optimism and 329 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,479 Speaker 1: the concrete economic prospects of the median and American citizen. 330 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: That could take the form of executive orders, that could 331 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: take the form of trying to craft legislation to get 332 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 1: by Congress, try to slip something into the Reconciliation Bill, 333 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: the once a year deal whereby the Senate parliamentarian agrees 334 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: that you can bypass the filibuster. Perhaps you're trying to 335 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: coordinate on state level legislation, trying to coordinate between the 336 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: White House legislative team or the Congress and or leading 337 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: red states Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and so what are you 338 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: doing to make sure that the mean American could be 339 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 1: economically better off, you know, in like a month, a year, 340 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be, than they are today. Those 341 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: are two things, the negative and the positive. If you 342 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: do that each and every day, then there is still 343 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: a chance that you might be able to salvage something 344 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: at the mid terms next fall. Ultimately, American voters have 345 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 1: a very very very very short time stamp. If there 346 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 1: is a massive recession, god forbid, in the next year, 347 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: If the stock market crashes, God forbid, If there is 348 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: a mass unemployment, way of God forbid, If anything like 349 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 1: that happens, the Republicans are going to be in a 350 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: world of dodo. If the economy starts to improve, if 351 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: maybe there's a Grand Rush Ukraine peace steal, some sort 352 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: of massive international development like that there, then certainly President 353 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: Trump and Republicans could be swimming along quite fine next fall. 354 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: It ultimately is still way too early, but it remains 355 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: the e commedy stupid. As we have said, by the way, 356 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: at the beginning of the show, talking about how there 357 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,919 Speaker 1: was this whole kind of parlor game, this whole guessing 358 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: games as to what was going to actually be the 359 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: substance of the talk last night. I mean, no one 360 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: had any idea. I you know, my wife asked me, 361 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: she said, you know, what's this going to be? I said, 362 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: I don't know. I would guess probably something about the economies. Okay, 363 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, not to pay myself them back too much. 364 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: But I got that one right. Someone who did not 365 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: get that right. As the track record of not getting 366 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: things right is mister Tucker Carlson. Tucker Carlson apparently was convinced, 367 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: convinced that this is going to be the speech that 368 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: President Trump declares war on Venezuela. Here's Tucker, I don't know. 369 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 5: I don't know when this program airs, the one that 370 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 5: we're on right now. 371 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:42,719 Speaker 3: This thing is Pipulus. 372 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 1: Well, we're live now, and then I will be posted 373 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: the immediately. 374 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 5: So I don't know the answer. I certainly been on 375 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 5: the phone a lot about it. I have no power, 376 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 5: I'm a podcaster, but I am very interested. And so 377 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,479 Speaker 5: here's what I know so far, which is that members 378 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 5: of Congress were briefed yesterday that a war is coming 379 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 5: and it'll be announced in the Address to the Nation 380 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 5: tonight at nine o'clock by the President. Who knows, by 381 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 5: the way, if that will actually happen. 382 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, right, So Tucker's sources on Capitol Hill 383 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 1: telling him that they're gearing up for a declaration of 384 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: war on Venezuela and wrong, get again, wrong, get again? 385 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: You know. I'm would love to remember in the lead 386 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: up to Operation Midnight Hammer, when President Trump sent in 387 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: the B two bombers on this thirty seven hour mission. 388 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: They leave from Missouri to go to Iran. They drop 389 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: a couple of these bunker buster bombs, they go right 390 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: back to Missouri. I remember when Tucker said this would 391 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: be the beginning of World War three. He said, if 392 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: you do anything, if you do anything to Ron whatsoever, 393 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: you are going to kill thousands. He said, thousands, thousands 394 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: of American service men and women, soldiers, sailors, marines. This 395 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: is gonna be World War three. I mean, dude was 396 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: catastrophically wrong then and he's catastrophically wrong now. And it 397 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: really does just make you wonder at what point I mean, 398 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: holding a side philosophical and ideological difference is which is 399 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: kind of where we're going next, but holding that aside, 400 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: just for a second, at what point does the actual 401 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: empirical and prediction and just general analytical track record. I'll 402 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: be a certain commentator a podcaster, at what point is 403 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: that person just shown to be so utterly naive, myopic, 404 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: and or just outright dimlin and stupid that you just 405 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: lose respect for them at best, or at worst you 406 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: just say he's done. I don't care if this guy 407 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: has to say it because he's mooning tunes, he's out 408 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: to lunch there. He's just saying dumb things. I asmit 409 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: to you that that that threshold should have happened a 410 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: long time ago when it comes to Tucker Carlson. Now, incidentally, 411 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: speaking of Tucker Carlson, yesterday and today and for the 412 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,479 Speaker 1: next few days are our big days when it comes 413 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: to the conservative movement in the United States. Today is 414 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: actually the opening day, opening day in Phoenix, Arizona of Amfest, 415 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: which is Turning Point USA's big conference. I am not there. 416 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: I was at Turney Points last conference too after Summit, 417 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: not at this one out in Arizona. But a lot 418 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: of the headliners are are household names that you would 419 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: be familiar with. Chucker Carlson controversially remains on the Turning 420 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: Point USA speaker list. I think I have a sneaking 421 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: suspicion as to some of the topics that he's going 422 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: to quote unquote address in his particular remarks there. I 423 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: would hazard a guess that probably somewhere between oh, I 424 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 1: don't know, fifty and eighty percent of it will be 425 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: about the Middle East and Israel and the Jews and 426 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: all that. There just a guess, just a guess. We'll 427 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: see how that goes. Someone else who is speaking at Amfest. 428 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: He actually speaking tonight's one of the first beaches after 429 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: Erica Kerr Charlie Kirk's widow starts off the conference on 430 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 1: The first people speaking tonight at Anfest will be Ben Shapiro. 431 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: Ben Shapiro longtime personal friends, so certainly a friend and 432 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: an ideological ally here of the Josh hammershow So, Ben 433 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 1: was actually in Washington, d C. Yesterday where he gave 434 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: a talk at the Heritage Foundation. So a quick turnaround 435 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: for him from Washington out to Phoenix. And this is 436 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: speech at the Heridge Foundation that was presented as a 437 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 1: book talk on his most recent book that came out 438 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,479 Speaker 1: in September. But Ben decided to give an extended remark 439 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: there inside the Heritage Foundation, with the president of the 440 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: Herod Foundation, Kevin Roberts, introducing Ben and then engaging conversation 441 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: with Ben after the talk was over. So Ben gave 442 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: a whole speech about Tucker Carlson, about Tarker Carlson, and 443 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: about the nature of the concerned movement and what it 444 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: means to be a conservative and above all the importance 445 00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: of actually defining, defining, and maintaining what it means to 446 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 1: be a conservative. So here is Benjapiro yesterday at the 447 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: Harris's Foundation in Washington, d C. 448 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 6: The conservative movement also requires a border. A conservative movement 449 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 6: without a border is no conservative movement. We are welcome 450 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 6: a movement, but those who seek to undermine the character 451 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,959 Speaker 6: of conservatism must never be granted legitimacy as voices of 452 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 6: our movement. Conservatism requires ideological border control. American conservatism is 453 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 6: a term with a definition. We use terms because they 454 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 6: have meaning. Definitions by nature delimit, they distinguish, and the 455 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 6: term American conservatism has a meaning. 456 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: And the meaning, he argued, or at least he argued, 457 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: as a lawyer does kind of assuming for the sake 458 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: of argments, he presented the Herodge Foundation's own definition like 459 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: he literally read from Heritage's mission statement and then showed 460 00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: systematically how, according to Heritage's own decades long mission statement 461 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 1: as to what the conservative movement seeks to conserve, how 462 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson singularly fails each and every one of those planks. Now, 463 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: this speech is not happening in a vacuum. We have 464 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: covered the fallouts at the Harridge Foundation in the aftermath 465 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: of doctor Roberts's video defending Tucker's speech, of his interview 466 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: of Nick Flentes, his his symbolic filating of the nation's 467 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: leading holocaust and I are on Tucker's popular show there 468 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: in late October. There's been a lot of fallouts of 469 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: doctor Roberts's decision to do that particular video. They've lost 470 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: a lot of donors, they've lost a lot of senior 471 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 1: staffers there. It's generally been something of a mess, I 472 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: think would be a very polite way of putting it there. 473 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: So the symbolism certainly is not lost, I think on 474 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: anyone of someone who was an outsider to the herod 475 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: fo nation, Ben Shapiro going in there into the organization 476 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 1: with the president right there and literally just saying, here's 477 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: what the organization stands for. Here is how the guy 478 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: that you just defended fails each and every plank of 479 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: this list. Now, I am absolutely not picking on Kevin Roberts, 480 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: who I've been very personally friendly with for many, many 481 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: years now. But this is a powerful speech. There's a 482 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: powerful speech that then delivered by all accounts, I watched 483 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: it live I heard lots of applause in the room. 484 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: I heard from people that are there that there was 485 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: a partial standing ovation after it was over there. So 486 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 1: it was very certainly, very well received. And the crux 487 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: of that clip that we just showed you was a 488 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: point that we've hit many times on this show as well, 489 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: is the following. What it means to be a conservative Ultimately, 490 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: I mean not to get dictionary definition, but let's get 491 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: dictionary definition. It literally means you seek to conserve. What 492 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: that means is that you must be grateful. The quintessential 493 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: consertive virtue is that of gratitude. As men as different 494 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: as Abraham Lincoln and Aristotle two thousand plus years ago 495 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 1: could have told you so, you were first grateful for 496 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: your inheritance. You appreciate its beauty, what is brought to 497 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: the world, your cultural, national, civilizational, religious, etcetera inheritance, and 498 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,719 Speaker 1: then you seek to conserve it, meaning to pass it 499 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 1: on from one generation to the next. In what the 500 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: great late eighteenth century British statesman Edmund Burke described as 501 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: this social compact or national compact between the dead, the living, 502 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: and the yet unborn. That is what it means to 503 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: be a conservative, The irony is this, if you go 504 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: full quote unquote no cancel culture, if you go full 505 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 1: quote unquote marketplace of ideas, if you say that nothing 506 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: nothing is off limits, everything is fair game, which is 507 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: essentially doctor Roberts's first video about Tucker and a fund does. 508 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 1: They're not going to engage in cancel culture. Rather, there 509 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: is a so called venomous coalition to use the infamous 510 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: verbiage of that already infamous video when it comes to 511 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 1: trying to quote unquote cancel or deplatform. The irony is 512 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: that when you don't draw any lines, when you make 513 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: no delineations whatsoever, we don't engage in what Ben is 514 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: referring to as ideological border control. The irony is that 515 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: you're actually not conserving anything. When he tried to conserve everything, 516 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: you actually paradoxically can serve nothing whatsoever. So you have 517 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: to have an understanding the appreciation of what is you're 518 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: trying to conserve. My argument in my book or Israel 519 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: and Civilization, that I've been arguing for years now is 520 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: that that civilizational inheritance that which we seek to conserve, 521 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: and that inheritance that produced the American founding and the 522 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: greatest self governing charter among men ever drafted the US 523 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: Constitution and so forth. That inheritance is the biblical inheritance, 524 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: is the inheritance that began with God's revelation at Mount 525 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: Sinai three plus millennia ago, originally brought to this world 526 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: by the Jewish people and spread throughout the world by Christians. 527 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: That is what we see to conserve. That is what 528 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: we are ultimately here to do. If you are opposed 529 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: to that, then you're not part of the tent. This 530 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: is not to say that we believe in so called cancelation. 531 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: No one here is talking about whether or not you 532 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: should have the quote unquote right to monetize your show 533 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: on a certain website or whatever. That's not this about. 534 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: This about whether the leaders of a certain movement are 535 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: capable of clearly enunciating and articulating what that movement stands for, 536 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: and then drawing lines to say that's not it. I'm 537 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: to take a very obvious example. If someone is rapidly 538 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: pro abortion, your abortion through the ninth month, God forbid, 539 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: You're like that horrific Australian philosopher of Princeton University, Peter Singer, 540 00:29:54,800 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: who infamously supports post birth abortion AKA and fanticide. Conservative, 541 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: that's not it. There are lines that have to be drawn. 542 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: If you're in favor of transing the kids, of chemically 543 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: castrating little prepubescent boys, that ain't it. That's not conservative. 544 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: So yes, we're capable of drawing lines. The question in 545 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: this case when it comes to Tucker Carlston, when it 546 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: comes to some of Tucker's fellow travelers, the question is 547 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: are we willing to delineate and draw lines as appropriate 548 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,479 Speaker 1: when it comes to this And we're gonna see something 549 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: this play out in real time at Amfest over the 550 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: next few days. It's an it's an intellectual ideological mix 551 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: of speakers that are speaking there out at Phoenix in 552 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: Phoenix over the next few days at Trinquen USA, we 553 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: will see how it all plays out. But a sterling 554 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: speech delivered by benjapi Es today at the Herritge Foundation 555 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: really taking tremendous balls, frankly, to kind of go there 556 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: in that moment, given the overwartun context, and deliver that 557 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: particular speech at that particular time. Incidentally, one of the issues, 558 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 1: one of the many issues frankly, that is being debated 559 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: right now when it comes to let's call it the 560 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: Ben Shapiro wing of the movement, and then the Tucker 561 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: Carlson wing of the quote unquote movement, if they're even 562 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: in the movement. But one of these central issues that's 563 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: currently being debated, and one of our favorite topics here 564 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: on the show is Islam. The normal conservative, the normal 565 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: American conservative who properly views America as being the outgrowth 566 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: of the Geo Christian biblical inheritance, understands that Islam does 567 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: not necessarily compute particularly well here, that it's not particularly compatible. 568 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: As we were just talking about on yesterday's show, there 569 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: are a lot of rumors flying about, although it's not 570 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: confirmed that the shooter a Brown University might be this 571 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: Palestinian activist, the kafia wearing radical. There are a lot 572 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: of reports that the guy shouted something before he started shooting. 573 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: G I wonder what that could have been. Was the 574 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: horrific Bondai Beach slaughter in Australia this past weekend committed 575 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: by radical Muslims. By the way, the Fox News on 576 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: the Brown story. The Fox News just reporting yesterday wild 577 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: stuff that pro Palestinians and anti Semitic activists on Brown's 578 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: campus last year apparently demanded that Brown take down some 579 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: of their cameras to protect the pro Hamas pro Ghati protesters, 580 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: and now Brown won't actually say whether they complied. More 581 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: than a little spicious, also more than a little supicious 582 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: that they took down the Muslim Students page from their 583 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: Brown dot edu website. Very very odd. Speaking of Bandai Beach, 584 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: by the way, there were seven arrests made just within 585 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: the past twelve to twenty four hours. Seven men were 586 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: en route to Bondai Beach because they were allegedly in 587 00:32:56,280 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: the midst of planning a violent attack, like literally after 588 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: the worst mass shooting in Australia in twenty nine years. 589 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: They have rested seven men this morning because they seemingly 590 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: wanted to do the whole thing over again. You could 591 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: probably guess what religion or what ethnicity these individuals were primarily, 592 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: if not exclusively, a part of. And if that's not 593 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: bad enough, as if all that's not bad enough, there 594 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: was another unsolved murder in New England earlier this week 595 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: as well. A world renowned plasma physicist and nuclear scientists, 596 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: a Portuguese academic at MIT by the name of Nuno 597 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: FG Lrrero was murdered in his home at the age 598 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: of forty seven in Brookline, Massachusetts, earlier this week. I 599 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: know Brookline. I have family in Brookline. It is an 600 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: inner ring suburb of Boston. It's a quintessential college town. 601 00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: Boston College is there. It's my iconic American supper when 602 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: of the nation's first suppers. So this extremely renowned mit 603 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: nuclear physicists was gunned down. Now, he was on the 604 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: cutting edge of nuclear research and was also, in his 605 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 1: political opinions, a somewhat known and semi outspoken supporter of Israel, 606 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: an opponent of radical Islam. Now some Israeli officials are 607 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: now saying that this physicists was gunned down by Iranian operatives, 608 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: by Iranian agents, sleeper cells, lone wolves, whatever you want 609 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: to call it, operating here inside the United States, which 610 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: is utterly horrifying. It true, it would hardly be the 611 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: first time that Iranian officials have engaged in attempted or 612 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: actual assassinations inside the United States. In fact, in twenty twelve, 613 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 1: when Irani and Saudi tensions were considerably tenser than they 614 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: are now, there was a whole plot to assassinate the 615 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: Saudian as to the US in Washingt d c. At 616 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: very upscale restaurant. Fortunately that plot was found by the 617 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: FEDS and it was disrupted. But it's not the first 618 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: time that Iran has attempted to engage in turtet assassinations. Here, 619 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: they've tried to assassinate Regene dissidents who have managed to 620 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: escape Iran, who now live in places like Brooklyn. So 621 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: they've done this before. So we'll see exactly where this 622 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: goes when it comes to whether or not this actually 623 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: was Iran because right now, similar to Brown, the gun 624 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: is on the loose, which, by the way, is another 625 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: part of this story is now we have multiple unsolved 626 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: murder mysteries just in New England. But guys, what's going on? 627 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: I mean, what is going on when it comes to 628 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: New England law enforcement, get your act together? Awful awful stuff. 629 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 1: But you know, it's not just the Tucker Carlson quote 630 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: unquote right that has completely lost the plot when it 631 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: comes to radical Islam. Debbie Wassman Schultz remember her. She's 632 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: not really as prominent these days as she was some 633 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: years ago. She was the head of the Democratic National Committee. 634 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: She's still she's still in Congress, and she still, frankly 635 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: totally sucks. So she was on with our pal Leland 636 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 1: Viddert on News Nation last night and she got asked 637 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: a very good question and gave a doozy of an answer. 638 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: Go ahead and watch this. 639 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 4: I think we have to focus, quite frankly, on if 640 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 4: we're worried about the threat to American values, on the 641 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 4: person who's in the White House. I mean, we have 642 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 4: a really come on, yeah, I'm going there, because we 643 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 4: have a president who has completely undermined our democracy, who 644 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 4: has has so you don't. 645 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 1: See is you don't see jihad. You don't see is 646 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: a problem. 647 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 4: What I don't see is that, as a single lens problem, 648 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 4: we have a president who has been determined to undermine 649 00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 4: our constitutional principles, to degrade our democracy, to divide instead 650 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 4: of unite us. 651 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 1: All right, So I mean that that is literally ten 652 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: out of ten embarrassing. I mean, what an absolute hack, 653 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,359 Speaker 1: What an absolute hack. Wie Wassman Schultz is a woman 654 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: who calls herself Jewish. She technically is Jewish. I think 655 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: she purports a professors to care about Jews. I mean, 656 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 1: can she bring can she be brought to condemn the 657 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 1: Islamist massacre at the Khabbad of Bondai Beach is Hanikah 658 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: celebration on Sunday. Has she called out the Jihannist Islamist 659 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: nature of that attack? Can you call out the jihadi 660 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: Isla's nature of any attacks? I mean, screw was Donald 661 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: Trump responsible for nine to eleven when he was on 662 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: the Apprentice? Is chilling at Trump Tower? Really? 663 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 4: So? 664 00:37:55,719 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: Whether it is the adel brains left that refuses, refuses 665 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: to confront the Islamist civilizational enemy for what it is, 666 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: Whether it is the Tucker Carlston quote unquote right that 667 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 1: bends over backwards to apologize for Sharia law. Tucker put 668 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: out these flashy videos of the skyline of Abu Dhabi 669 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 1: and Rhea and Saudi Arabia saying, oh Man, Shia law 670 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: is not that bad, not that bad, buddy. Have you 671 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 1: ever flipped through a Koran? Have you read what the 672 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: Koran says about people like you as a quote unquote infidel? 673 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 1: Aren't you a big Christian these days? 674 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 2: Tucker? 675 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 1: You're buying a place in Katar? Apparently he told the 676 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: Amir Katar at the Doha Forum at that junk that 677 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 1: you and your partner Neila tell rat mister big Christian. 678 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: Have you checked out of the churches in Qatar. 679 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: Oh? 680 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, They literally can't even publicly advertise at their churches 681 00:38:54,920 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: because it's a Sharia state. It's just unbelievable. It's absolutely unbelievable. 682 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: If Western civilization is, as I define it, the outgrowth 683 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 1: of the Judeo Christian Biblical inheritance, then it stands to 684 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: reason that the two Biblical religions judaeus in Christianity, whether 685 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 1: they want to be or not, I personally like it. 686 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: I have no issue with it at all, regardless where 687 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: they want to be formula at such as not. They 688 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: are now in this eternal alliance against their shared enemies. Again, 689 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: I personally welcome that alliance. I know there's some people 690 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: I suppose on both sides. We are Lorrence skeptical, we 691 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: are big supporters of the Judaeo Christian alliance here on 692 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: the Josh Hammershew. But the point is that there are 693 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 1: folks who are common enemies, the Shri supremacist and the Islamists. 694 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: They are definitely one, the universalists, the globalists, and the Wocarati. 695 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: That's two I Gues two and three actually the Wokaraate 696 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: and then the globalist universalists really are the next two. 697 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 1: So it's the islmust the woke DII intersectional crap, and 698 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: then the globalist universalists, ultimately the universalists culminating in this 699 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 1: this great reset Davos esque imperious attempts to eradicate the 700 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: nation state a llah John Len's imagine. So Western Civilization 701 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: stands against that. If you are not with us, if 702 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: you are offering cover for the ISLMUS, then you're not 703 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 1: on our team. You're not part of Team America. You're 704 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: not part of team Jo Christian. You're not part of 705 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 1: team Bible. You're not part of team Western Civilization. And 706 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: that's the crux of the speech that Ben Shapiro gave 707 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: for the Herotan nation. We have to draw these lines 708 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: because without any of these lines being drawn, without any 709 00:40:55,160 --> 00:41:00,439 Speaker 1: of these lines being drawn, we are nothing. We are nothing, 710 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 1: and we are conserving nothing. And if we're conserving nothing, 711 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: that won the world we're doing here in the first place? 712 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: Does ryder Folks make sure to like and subscribe to 713 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 1: our show.
