It's not like she's been trained 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:14.120 like Charlie over twelve years of doing repeat reps exactly. 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:18.960 She's doing tremendous, yes, absolutely immense, Yeah, beginning to end, 0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:19.800 top to bottom. 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:21.040 Yeah, so they've been pressed. 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.280 They've they've sold like sixty thousand copies in the first 0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.160 day of this book, which is really good, tremendous. 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:27.359 Yeah, and they're doing. 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:29.880 Realize books don't always sell that much. 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:32.400 These no forty five books dot com.

It's just and I And I said this 0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:43.480 in a tweet yesterday that I pitched Charlie on doing 0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:45.480 all kinds of different politics books. Like we were talking 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:46.800 about what is his next book going to be? And 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.079 he was just adamant. He's like, no, it's going to 0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:50.600 be about the Sabbath. I've been wanting to write this 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:51.440 book for a long time. 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:52.920 I really want to write. I was like, okay, but 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:56.679 like the Sabbath, you know, And it's just aproposts. 0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.040 It's almost like he saved his most important book for 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:00.240 last and a lot of that. 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.760 Is most timeless one because all the other ones, they're 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:07.480 a moment in time. College will hopefully be either destroyed 0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:09.519 or reformed. You don't need to call it a scam anymore. 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:11.440 Right wing revolution that was all about what the next 0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:15.079 GOP admin should do. But this is one you could 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:18.000 have thirty years from now, fifty years from now, two 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:18.800 hundred years from now. 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:20.040 Yeah, one thousand percent. 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:23.000 I want to play a couple of clips from Erica 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:24.720 being on The Five yesterday just because it was so 0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:28.240 it was I mean, I don't remember the last time 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.799 I saw kind of like a guest host on The Five, 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:32.960 especially you know, promoting a book. So thank you to 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:38.040 The Five and Jesse and Greg and Dana and. 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:40.120 Even Jessica Taralov. She was very sweet. 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:44.840 Two nineteen el Jesse and Greg are in a Bible 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:46.040 study group together? 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:47.960 Are they really because of Charlie Kirk? 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:49.640 Okay? That is really cool. 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.440 So every morning, that is really every morning we wake 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:55.320 up and we read a passage. 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:56.880 And then we text about it, Okay, and it is 0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:58.400 because of Charlie. 0:03:58.680 --> 0:03:59.400 I love that. 0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:04.080 So what are you saying is Harold, Jesse and Greg? 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:07.480 So Harold's the liberal and Jesse and Greg are not. 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:10.840 And they're all in a Bible study because of Charlie. 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.880 So we found that out yesterday, which was which was amazing. 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:17.080 Here's Erica Kirk telling The Five about how President Trump 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:19.560 has been there for her in this time two twenty. 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:24.159 When Donald Trump secured peace in the Middle East. The 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:29.400 next day he flew back so DC to deliver my 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.200 husband's Metal of Freedom to me. He didn't have to 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:35.000 do that. So a lot of people, I understand there's 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:38.120 a lot of policy and everything involved, but also I 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.839 am very proud to have Donald Trump as our president. 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:41.800 I really am. 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:43.160 He's a good man. 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:44.279 He's a good man. 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.240 And you know two three three, put that picture back 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.279 up stopping the name of the tops number one on 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:55.400 Amazon bestseller list, a book out, like it's sold out 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:56.000 on Amazon. 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.360 They're going to do print more. Yeah, I've been checking. 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:01.000 It looks like we only have physical cop This looks 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:02.920 like that's where books there approaches. 0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:05.120 And I'm really happy to have my my copy. And 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.880 I'm like literally reading a couple chapters every night, and 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:11.279 I'm telling you this book is I mean, I know, 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:13.159 it's like people would expect me to say. 0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:16.159 I would probably remain silent if I didn't have anything 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:16.960 nice to say about it. 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:18.520 Actually, I would just sort of say, you know, check 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:22.800 it out, support support Charlie Erica, like it's really freaking 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:27.400 good man. You know, when God instituted the Sabbath, he 0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:29.680 wove rest into the fabric of creation and on the 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:32.040 seventh day, God finished his work that he had done, 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:33.800 and he rested on the seventh day from all his 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:35.720 work that he had done. Genesis too too. God did 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:38.440 not rest because he was tired. He rested because he 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.800 was satisfied, and he invites us to do the same. 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.960 There's like all these little like tidbits that these breakthrough 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:48.840 ideas in this book, and it's just it's just phenomenal. So, uh, 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:52.200 congratulations to Eric and the team, the team at Winning 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.479 Team Publishing forty five books dot com if you want 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:57.680 to get your copy, Erica's actually get It was funny because, uh, 0:05:58.120 --> 0:05:59.760 we've been this morning, I've been texting with a bunch 0:05:59.760 --> 0:06:02.520 of people with you know, Eric is going to do 0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:05.920 Glenn Beck's show tomorrow morning, and then so we got 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.120 into a conversation with Glenn's team and then so Glenn's 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:09.720 actually going to join us at the top of the 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:12.240 show tomorrow, which will be great, and we can talk 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:16.679 about that many other things. But there's another big news 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.919 story that was near and dear to Charlie's hall, and 0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:21.159 it's near and dear to Blake's heart. 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:22.640 So we're going to hit it at hour one. 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.080 We're also going to bring har Meat Dylan from the 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:28.240 DOJ Civil Rights Department on at the second half of 0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:29.800 this hour to talk about it. But that is, of 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:34.159 course the rolling back of disparate impact standards within the 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:37.440 DOJ and within the federal government. Blake, what is disparate 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:39.040 impact if you had to boil it. 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:42.440 Down, alrighty, So disparate impact is more people are thankfully 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:45.200 becoming aware of it. But it's been around for half 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:48.480 a century at this point, and desperate impact is sort 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:51.440 of the it's the spearhead for a lot of what 0:06:51.480 --> 0:07:00.400 we'd call the DEI regime, the agenda, the dictatorship of America, 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:03.760 which is where instead of things coming down to merit 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:08.200 coming down to measurable ability, where we reduce things to quotas, 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.520 to favoritism, to discrimination based on race or sex, or 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:17.440 national origin or who knows what. And you know, I 0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:19.960 think this is actually a good opportunity to bring in 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:22.960 Charlie because he was talking about this in April when 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:25.640 there was a Trump executive order concerning this. And we're 0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:27.040 going to get to the follow up in a second, 0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:29.320 but this was Charlie summing it up. 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:31.200 Let's play two thirty six. 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.800 In nineteen seventy one. There was a Supreme Court case 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:37.920 Greggs v. Duke Power Company. Duke Power was sued because 0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:40.600 for people to get certain jobs at the company, they 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.080 required them to either have a high school diploma or 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:46.560 pass an aptitude test. Black applicants were less likely to 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:49.160 have a diploma, and they they didn't do as well 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:52.400 on the aptitude test. The Supreme Court ruled that Duke's 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:57.280 job requirements were quote justified, were not justified by business necessity, 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:01.120 and so they were illegally discriminatory unless the doctrine of 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:02.480 disparate impact was bored. 0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.840 So what he's saying there is the idea was this 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.760 was a neutral test. Is just having a high school 0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:11.840 diploma or taking this aptitude test, no one could really. 0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:14.600 There was no one actually coming in and saying, oh, 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:18.520 don't hire black people, but they were just less likely 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:20.080 to do well as well on this test. And the 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.000 court said, well, we don't think this test is close 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:26.040 enough to what you need employees to do at this company, 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:30.040 and because it doesn't have an equal outcome between these 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.560 two groups, it's discriminatory. So it's what took our law 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:36.160 from what most people think of when they think of discrimination, 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:40.880 where you're deliberately discriminating against people. And they're saying anything 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:45.440 you do, if it has an unequal outcome, can be 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.280 labeled illegal, can be labeled the illegal discrimination can get 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:53.480 you sued. And what that's turned into is you essentially 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:57.199 anything can be illegal because news flash, Andrew, everything has 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:00.520 unequal outcomes. Everything in the world. No one, Actually, I 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:01.600 think we have this as well. 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:07.040 Literally every standard imaginable has created has some sort of 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.040 disparate impact against a group. Nobody on this planet has 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:15.800 ever designed a test or a standard that men, women, blacks, whites, Asians, Hispanics, Catholic, Jews, 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:18.880 gaze straits do so equally. Well, the very idea is 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.840 an absurd fantasy. You're going to have different outcomes. But 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:28.360 what disparate impact does, says the test itself is wrong. 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.480 It is a loophole that you could drive a semitruck through. 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:35.880 It's a little sliver. You say, oh, disparate impact, Well 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:37.760 that's the big deal here. No, no, no, no. This 0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:42.280 has been exploited by DEI actors for the last thirty years. 0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:44.520 Thirty last fifty years. 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.480 Yeah, and again, one of the things I want to 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:50.319 get into is aptitude tests. We used to acquire these 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:52.480 to get a job in the federal government ye for example. 0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:56.480 And the one of the best examples of this was 0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:58.560 the NYPD. I brought it up before a class of 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:01.160 chiefs the nineteen thirty nine. Now this had controversy because 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:04.040 they claimed it was anti Semitic or anti Jewish. But 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:06.480 here's what's interesting. They had so many applicants. They just 0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:09.560 selected candidates from the top scores on the Civil Service exam. 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.679 Farm oid officers made it to retirement or achieved high 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:18.200 rank performance than any other year. President Trump walked into 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.520 a catch twenty two when taking office, do nothing in 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:22.960 America would be staring at a ticking debt bomb, the 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:25.640 kind of crisis that could cripple our future. Instead, he's 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:28.600 taken action with strong policies to slow the train and 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:32.120 buy some time. But the effects of past administration spending 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:35.160 are still working through the system, and experts predict dramatic 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:38.439 price increases and market uncertainty. Trump is doing all he can, 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:41.560 but no matter who's in office, protecting your retirement savings 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:45.240 is ultimately up to you, and that's why many Americans 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.960 are turning to real assets like gold and silver. Preserve 0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.400 gold is our go to choice here at the Charlie 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.000 Kirk Show. We use them because they make it easy 0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:56.800 to own physical gold and silver even inside your retirement accounts, 0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:59.240 like an IRA or four O one k now here 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:00.520 from Charlie in his own. 0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:02.840 Words, Preserve Gold is my go to choice for all 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:04.960 my precious metal needs. They are the real deal and 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.520 I recommend them to my friends, family and viewers. 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.760 Get their free Wealth Protection guide now by texting Charlie 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:14.200 to five zero five zero five. President Trump is fighting 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:20.000 for America's future. Now it's your term to help protect yours. Blake, 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:23.480 we were talking about aptitude tests, good or bad. 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:25.080 Apt To tests are great. 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:28.400 They're one of the fairest things we have in modern life. 0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:29.160 Oh they're racists. 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.520 Oh now, there are a lot of things get called racist 0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:32.040 in America. 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:32.880 You know, it's funny. 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:38.240 Charlie loved Thomas Soule's book on disparate Impact. It was 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:41.559 a discrimination and disparities right and the whole theme of 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:45.400 the book is that you challenge single explanations like single 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:50.280 factor explanations, so disparities are not solely due to discrimination, exploitation, 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.439 and genetics. There's multivariate analysis that needs to be done. 0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:56.880 It's complex thinking like you can't just say what's great. 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:59.400 About aptitude tests is anyone can walk in and do 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:02.920 well on a test, whereas every other standard people propose 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:05.760 as alternatives, They're always much more likely to favor people 0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:09.640 who have networks, who have other things they can take 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:12.600 advantage of. Frankly, it's way better to be a person 0:12:12.679 --> 0:12:15.680 with money with an informal system than just a system 0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:17.480 where whoever scores best does best. 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:22.000 I recommend everybody check out Thomas Soul's book Discrimination and Disparities. 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:25.400 It's one of Charlie's favorite books to quote, and in 0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:31.120 it Soul challenges single factor explanations. And what that means 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:36.920 is there is disparities in racial outcomes. Blacks and Hispanics 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.080 tended not to do as well on certain aptitude tests. 0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:43.679 We can ask questions why that is. So they got 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:46.520 rid of aptitude tests largely in order to get into 0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:49.760 the federal government, you had to pass you had to 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.360 take a PACE test, which was what is it Stanford. 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:57.840 Political and political or professional career examinations, an administrative career examine. 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.720 Yes, and so we still have some tests the federal government, 0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:02.920 but widely been removed. 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:05.120 That's that's the important thing about disparate impact, it doesn't 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:09.120 actually ban tests. They're still For example, the maybe unless 0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:11.160 they got rid of the State Department has long had 0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:13.720 a test to get in. And for example, but what 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.320 when we say, I said desperate impact makes everything illegal? 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:21.839 It literally does make everything illegal. And what that means 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:25.040 is that you have government by vibes. So, for example, 0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:28.839 with disparate impact, a company if they say we're just 0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.040 going to give every job applicant an IQ test and 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:34.960 hire the top scorers, they'll get Historically they would get 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.920 a very questionable look from the federal government. It would 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.680 feel legally risky to do. But if they say you 0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:44.760 need this or that college diploma to be hired by us, 0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:47.880 it's very unlikely that they would be a questioned, even 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.800 if that diploma isn't super directly related to what they're 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:53.840 hiring for. And both of those things have a disparate impact. 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:55.720 You know, Whites and Asians are more likely to have 0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:59.400 college diplomas than Black Americans, for example, So why is 0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:03.280 one looked at negatively and the other isn't. It basically 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.480 just comes down to how the bureaucrats feel. It's vibes based, 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:09.600 and government bureaucrats and lawyers like colleges, they like diplomas, 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:14.560 they like liberal colleges, dispensing these job granting credentials to 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:16.080 people that you have to pay a ton of money 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:20.320 for and they don't like iq tess And so you 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.520 get this ViBe's based government. And then you also get 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:25.520 that's what also drives that hr ratchet that Charlie would 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.120 talk so much about, which is you avoid getting the 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:31.120 government after you by doing all these big, loud, expensive 0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:34.840 signals that you're not racist, that you're not sexist, because 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.960 everyone's breaking the law because everything's illegal, so you just 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:40.480 are trying to say, don't eat me, because they can't 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.560 eat everyone. And this all loops around to why we're 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.320 talking about this today because one of the great things 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:49.720 going on in this administration, something that's not talked about enough, 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:53.880 is they have been waging war on this monstrosity. The 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:56.400 reason we had those Charlie clips is President Trump did 0:14:56.440 --> 0:14:59.840 an executive order to roll back desperate impact last April, 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:03.640 and just yesterday we had a great announcement from the 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:07.760 Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division where they're going after 0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:13.960 the traditional disparate impact prioritization in their office. The quote 0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:17.479 they had from their division. The prior disparate impact regulations 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:23.040 encourage people to file lawsuits challenging racially neutral policies without 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:27.120 evidence of intentional discrimination. Our rejection of this theory will 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:30.680 restore true equality under the law by requiring proof of 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:35.000 actual discrimination rather than just enforcing race or sex based 0:15:35.080 --> 0:15:38.080 quotas or assumptions and the other thing that we had yesterday. 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:42.320 Because of this, the civil Rights divisions, A bunch of 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:45.960 employees of the DOJ's Civil Rights decision A Division have 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:50.640 released an open letter denouncing the direction that the department 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:53.760 has been headed in. And it turns out about seventy 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:56.920 five percent of lawyers of career lawyers and the DOJ's 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.920 Civil Rights Division have left because they are outraged at 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:03.080 the direction the Trump administration is taking it. God bless America. 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.800 Yeah, this this is better than DOJE. This is better, 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:07.760 you know, like the seventy five percent of a of 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:11.040 a single of a weaponic bureaucracy. 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:14.040 The commisar, the woke commissars, as Charlie like to say, 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:19.040 get them out gets his former DOJ staff criticized leadership 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:22.960 for abandoning civil rights mission. That's a that's a good thing. 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:26.080 It's amazing stand up and clap, and we are gonna 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:30.280 We're gonna give har Meat Dylan her her kudos and 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:36.080 a and a warm congratulatory welcome onto this show. Because listen, 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:39.640 you're losing seventy five attorneys that are leaving the DOJ 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:43.840 Civil Rights for two seventy Yeah, seventy sorry, more than 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:47.240 two hundred former employees, Yeah, criticize what they call an 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:51.520 ongoing destruction of the Civil Rights Division. This is the 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:56.120 This is bigger and more impactful than most people could 0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:59.360 possibly realize because yeah, you know, Charlie said thirty years, 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:01.880 this has been going off fifty years in our federal government. 0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:04.760 When you see a sliding of standards, when you see 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:09.600 an abandonment of meritocracy, when you see that, like I 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:12.399 think there's this prevailing fog over the country where it 0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:14.920 just feels like things don't matter anymore. It's like, oh, well, 0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.679 people just get away with crap and nobody gets held accountable. 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:20.520 This is one of the root causes for that where it's, 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:22.480 like Charlie used to say, it was like whose line 0:17:22.480 --> 0:17:22.639 is it? 0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:22.960 Anywhere? 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:24.600 Where the points are made up and the rules don't matter. 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:27.440 That's what modern society is starting to feel like, why 0:17:27.480 --> 0:17:29.879 does it feel that way. Part of the root cause 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:33.280 of this is desperate impact. It's and by the way, 0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:37.159 the legal profession getting infected with DII and critical theory 0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:39.560 and all of these things. It floods out into the 0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:44.280 wider culture and the wider society, government, bureaucracy, civil order, 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:49.280 and things fall apart. Over time, things grade, and so 0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:52.280 if you want to get to root causes, you have 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:54.679 to get rid of desperate impact. This is a huge, 0:17:54.760 --> 0:18:02.280 huge development.

Absolutely. 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:21.480 I told the audience harmat that we were going to 0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:26.920 give you a very warm welcome because you have you 0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:29.480 have done what I think even Doge was not able 0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:34.080 to do, and you are just I'll let you describe 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:35.680 it the way you want to, because I know these 0:19:35.680 --> 0:19:38.719 things can be sensitive in the actual official halls of power. 0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:43.879 But you're cleaning house at the DOJ's Civil Rights Division. 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:47.439 There's a report this morning. We celebrate these changes and 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.520 also there's news on disparate impact. The floor is yours, 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:51.680 harmy Well, thank you. 0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:52.480 So much, Andrew. 0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:55.240 And so yes, I'm in the news this week because 0:19:55.480 --> 0:20:00.520 there are hundreds of disgruntled former Civil Rights Division lawyers 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:04.480 who voluntarily quit. I didn't fire them after I told 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:06.680 them that their job was going to be to protect 0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:09.920 the civil rights of all Americans, not just the chosen 0:20:10.040 --> 0:20:13.119 few and their pet projects that they had been pursuing 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:15.320 for decades here in the Civil Rights Division. 0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:17.920 Two hundred of them or so immediately. 0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:20.119
