WEBVTT - Screaming Primal Rage 0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:01.880 And all that. That's called freedom of speech, and that's 0:00:01.920 --> 0:00:07.800 what this hearing title is protecting speech. So all I 0:00:07.840 --> 0:00:10.399 can see is, look, we should all join hands and 0:00:11.280 --> 0:00:18.520 denouncing and whatever words you want to use about violent 0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:21.880 extremism of all stripes, and I think we can all 0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:26.560 agree on that. So's to constantly accuse Democrats of not 0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:30.360 caring about that is really I can only say that 0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:33.879 you aren't listening. So I hope this is the end 0:00:33.920 --> 0:00:35.839 of this hearing, mister chairman, and that we don't have 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.760 to listen to any more of your rhetorical speeches. Thank 0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:42.240 you very much. I'm leaving well. I appreciate the as 0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:45.879 always kind and uplifting words of Senator Herono, and I 0:00:45.880 --> 0:00:48.879 would also note that throughout her remark she still did 0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:51.520 not say a negative word about Antifa, nor has any 0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:56.320 Democrat here. They instead engage in a political game where 0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:59.960 they depend. You're welcome to say something negative about Antifa 0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:07.000 right now. I think that I've covered the subject quite okay. 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:10.319 She declined to speak, so that is the position of 0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:12.640 the Democratic Party. I would note also that of the 0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:16.160 seven Democratic senators who spoke, not a one of them 0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:23.640 apologized for or denounced multiple Democrats calling law enforcement officers Nazis, stormtroopers, 0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:25.600 and Gestapo. To be fair, I don't have not heard 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:28.720 the word Nazi, but stormtrooper was Nancy Pelosi and Gastapo 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:37.560 was another Democratic leader. Welcome back to Verdict with Ted Cruz. 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:42.039 I'm Michael Knowles. I'm sitting here, of course with the senator. Senator, 0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:44.920 you have not yet chased me out of this room, 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.360 but I notice you seem to have chased your Democratic 0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.120 colleague out of the Senate yesterday. Well, Michael, I don't 0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:52.600 like what you're saying, so I'm going to need to 0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:55.320 get up and run away and leave. Now. You're very 0:01:55.320 --> 0:02:00.520 frightening and you're you're causing me to hyperventily. Yeah, well, 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.720 because I'm posing these very difficult questions to you, such 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:07.440 as are you willing to condemn Antifa? So so it 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:11.960 was really crazy. So I chaired a hearing on Antifa violence. 0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:14.960 And it's I, as you know, chair the Constitution Subcommittee, 0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:19.160 a Senate Judiciary committee, and so the the hearing was 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:24.200 focused on the right and the First Amendment peaceably to assemble. 0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.519 And by the way, if you remember back, do you 0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:32.760 remember Chris Cuomo on CNN saying saying, where is it 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:37.480 written that that that protesting and gathering has to be peaceable? 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.040 And it's kind of like, well, okay, there's this thing 0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:43.880 called the First Amendment. It's in the Constitution, the right 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.480 of the people peaceably to assemble. It's right there, first Amber, 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:49.160 part of the Bill of Rights attached the Well you 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.880 get understand, CNN, they don't have copies of the Constitution, 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:57.000 so so you can understand. You wouldn't expect the CUOMO 0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:58.600 to be familiar with I don't know that it's even 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.600 allowed in the building. Frankly, I think that's probably right. Well, 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:06.320 the hearing was on free speech and the right peaceably 0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:12.880 to assemble, and how radical anarchists and Marxists are taking 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:18.160 over these protests and engaging in rioting and violence, and 0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:20.720 so we had testimony and in the entire course of it, 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.000 so we had testimony originally from the Department of Justice 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:27.000 and Department Homeland Security. Ken Kucinelli, the acting Deputy Secretary, 0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:30.760 test if I did a five fabulous job. But seven 0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:35.000 different Democratic senators participated in the hearing. Not a single 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:38.680 one of them was willing to say even a single 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:42.400 word critical about Antifa. They wouldn't and it's you know, 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:45.560 I gotta say, look, I'll give the DEM's credit. They 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:49.600 have a message discipline. Like when a talking point goes out, 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:52.000 I don't know who it is. Is that what it is? Though? 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:53.960 I mean they basically they get the talking points that 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:57.800 they stick to it. They repeat the same words over 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:01.080 and over again. So for example, all of them called 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:04.680 the DHS law enforcement officers secret police. That was clearly 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:08.640 the talking point. So so Mazy Heronos, the ranking Democrat 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.840 on the committee, she plays this this video I think 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.680 from the New York Times where it refers to them 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:18.400 as unidentified officers, and literally the video playing they have 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:22.599 in giant right yellow all caps letters the words police 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:27.160 like that. That's not they are identified. Let's not a 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:30.560 question about that. But it's but it doesn't stop them. 0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:34.320 So they're talking points, and so they're talking points on Antifa, 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:39.320 on the terrorists. Is they just scream right wing violence, 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:45.000 white supremacist, white supremacists, and the difference by the way, um, look, 0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:48.360 I'm white supremacists, Nazis KKK. Those guys are racist idiots. 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.200 Lock them all up, they commit violence, Lock them up 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:51.560 and throw them in jai. This is the point. This 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:53.120 was what was so shocking to me when I was 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:56.360 watching this clip of you talking to Senator Horono. When 0:04:56.440 --> 0:05:00.560 some fringe lunatic guy who maybe he associates with the right, 0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:02.760 and he comes out and says something bigoted, all the 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:06.480 right disavows, condemns, takes two seconds, nobody worries about it. 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:10.479 But none of your Democratic colleagues on zero, not one 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:14.320 could condemn Antifa, or the Marxists or the other end. 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:16.280 I mean, it seems so simple to me. Why couldn't 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:18.560 they do it? So not only that, but but but 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:22.120 also we've seen their rhetorics. So Nancy Pelosi called federal 0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:26.120 police officers stormtroopers, aunt Jim Kleiber and one of the 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.720 ranking leading Democrats of the House called them gestapo like 0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:35.919 calling cops Nazis yea, And not a single Democrat, I 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:37.840 mean repeatedly that was called out. Not one of the 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.720 Democratic senators would walk away from it. And so at 0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:44.279 the end of the hearing, Mazie got up and stormed out, 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:50.279 and she's like, well, no, no, I've condemned violence. I'm like, well, no, 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:53.000 not from Antifa, not from the left. You insist the 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:56.080 only violence that occurs is on the right. Facts be damned. 0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:58.200 Do you know what Ken Kucinelli told us at the hearing. 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:02.600 What he said, there have been in the last six 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:07.640 months two hundred and seventy seven officer injuries in Portland. 0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:12.360 Wow seven. So Ken Cucinelli Deputy Secretary of Department of 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:15.880 Homeland Security, and he testified it, and he testified fact 0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:20.000 he had. So they're throwing rocks at the officers, they're 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:22.680 throwing frozen water bottles. In fact, Ken had a frozen 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:27.479 water bottle with him just to illustrate. They hit an 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.560 officer in the head with a sledgehammer. They're bringing knives, 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:34.200 they're bringing guns, They're throwing gasoline and lighting gasoline on fire. 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:40.720 They're firing mortars with with commercial fireworks. They have those lasers. Well, 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:44.360 and you and I, so we did we did an 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:47.919 interview with the Secretary of Homeland Security, Chad Wolf, and 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:50.479 we did it at DHS, which was pretty cool. But 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:53.479 while we're doing the interview, you and I are sitting 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:58.080 there into the room walks Ken Cucinelli. You know, in 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:00.440 the moment I couldn't quite tell. Obviously the lighting was 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:01.960 a little dark. So, like I said, who is this 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.440 guy who's kind of walking in if i'd known. If 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:05.719 i'd know it was him, I would have said he 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.440 should come right on the show. And if i'd have 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:09.480 seen him, he came in behind me, so I didn't 0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:10.880 see him. If I had seen him, I said, Cooch, 0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:12.520 come on over, pull up a chair because he was 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.679 coming to testify that afternoon, and he had a prop 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:19.440 he had, so the commercial laser that they're using. Yeah, 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:22.480 I have to admit when I read about the sort 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:24.720 of lasers to the eyes that that struck me as 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.400 a little bogus because we've always had little laser pointers, right, 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:29.520 you chase your cat around with it? Yeah, Like I mean, 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:32.760 isn't that? Isn't that All of Twitter is cat videos, like, like, 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.280 I think that's the entirety of the Internet. Yeah, but 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:41.040 what was interesting is these commercial ones. So so Cooch 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:42.800 had one of those. He said, here, hold your hand out, 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:45.600 so I did, and he points it and in like 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:47.880 one second. It takes about a second and then you go, 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.400 oh crap, and you yank. I mean it burned. Well, 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:52.480 you know, I don't. I don't think that you were 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:54.480 necessarily foolish when he says put your in it, you 0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:56.560 did it, But then I saw it burned. You and 0:07:56.600 --> 0:07:58.840 then you tell me, hey, Michael, put your hand out, 0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.200 and I like a fool, I put my hand out 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:04.679 and I get it burned by Look, this is basic 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:08.400 human instinct. You know. You have like spoiled milk and 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:13.120 you go, oh, stays terrible like, but it's serious. I mean, 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:14.440 you can you can light a piece of paper on 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.080 fire with those lasers. And this is this is the 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:17.760 kind of thing that's being shined in the CoP's eyes. 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:23.040 And and Cucinelli testified over thirty officers have had eye 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.240 damage where they shine it in their eyes and it's 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.320 a risk of permanent blindness. And in fact, what they're 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.840 doing is they have these shields and they get up 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:33.880 right close at them to shine the laser right in 0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:37.079 their eye, um, and try to blind them. Yeah, and 0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:39.439 you know one thing, you did very well at the hearing. 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:42.199 And for some reason, I notice these clips aren't going around. 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.800 I don't know why the press isn't covering it. You 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:48.440 went through with great specificity who these people are, the 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:52.880 organized anarchists, the organized Marxists who are behind these riots 0:08:52.920 --> 0:08:55.479 all over the country. You know, I think the Democrats 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:58.679 they've outright denied that Antifa even exists. It's Jerry Nadler 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.080 the other day pretended it's not real. You went through 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.760 those specifically, these are real Marxists, these are real anarchists. Well, 0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.080 and you take two different groups that are worth worth 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.439 focusing on one Antifa, and you've got we heard a 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:14.480 lot of testimony. Antifa is profoundly violent. They engage in terrorism, 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:18.120 they encourage terrorism, they train people to engage in this violence. 0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:21.719 They're also profoundly anti free speech. They and they use 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:27.079 violence as a way to silent speech they disagree with you, 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:32.520 and these are concerted. You know, Andy No the journalist, 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:36.719 he testified at the hearing about being violently beaten up 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:40.840 by the way they call him a white supremacist, as 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:45.160 he described he's he's the son of a Vietnamese immigrant. 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:48.599 He's Vietnamese and gay is not. You're like, he is 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:51.600 the most Vietnamese white supremacist I've ever met, There's no question. 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:54.200 But you know what they call Ben Shapiro and Nazi, 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:57.600 So so never let facts get in the way right 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:01.000 of their attacking rhetoric. Yeah, but you know, so you 0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:04.199 had the anarchists of Antifa, and you had Marxists as well, 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:08.000 as you explained yesterday, well, and I talked at some 0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:11.320 length about black lives matter. Now, now it's important to 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:15.560 understand the difference. The phrase black lives matter. Oh yeah, 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:19.439 of course is indisputably true this period the end. And 0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:22.680 let me actually take a digression for a minute. I 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.080 think most Republicans are morons when it comes to talking 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:29.000 about black lives matter. Uh, because when you have someone 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.480 say does black lives matter? You get all these Republicans No, 0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:34.360 all lives matter? Yeah, why can't you just say yes? Right? 0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:36.560 If you ask me, yes, it's black lives matter. Well, 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:39.079 it's like Mazie Herono's answer, right, Well, you condemn Antifa, 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:42.679 I condemn extremism, Say right, but what about specifically Antifa's 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:45.480 you know, for a simple question like absolutely, black lives 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:49.240 are precious and they matter immensely, and the reason is 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:53.880 every life is created by God. But you don't you 0:10:53.920 --> 0:10:57.920 see Republicans like terrified to say that, Yeah, because we're 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.880 in such a weird politicized world. Well, and also because 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:04.200 there's this organization which is very different. Well, and and 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.400 that's so the statement black lives matter is a truism. 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:09.760 Overwhelming the majority of Americans agree with it. It It should 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:13.160 be everyone I mean, yeah, basically everyone, I think. But 0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:16.920 there's something very separate from the organization that is called 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:21.320 Black Lives Matter and this um. There's an article I 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:23.960 entered into the record of the hearing from the Washington 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:26.920 Examiner that gives some of the history of the organization. 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:33.040 So it was founded by three radicals who describe themselves 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:36.320 in their own words as trained Marxists. So they are 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.800 this is not me calling the Marxist. They tell you 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:42.480 they're Marxists. They tell you they've studied Marx and Lenin 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:46.880 and Mao. They I mean, there's a video of Patris Klus, 0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:49.240 Who's who's one of the co founders. She says, Alicia 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:52.120 and I are Alicia Garris, another co founder, are trained Marxists. 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:54.920 And the third co founder, oh, Paul Timetti, is seen 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:58.440 smiling and photographs with the communist dictator of Venezuela. They're 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:01.400 they're not hiding this sort of thing. So not only that, 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:05.640 one of the founders of the organization Black Lives Matter 0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:11.680 describes as her mentor Angela Davis. Now Angela Davis, I 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.240 don't have to call her communist. She tells you she 0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:17.280 was a communist. She was not once, but twice the 0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:21.040 vice presidential nominee of the Communist Party of the United States. 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:25.920 So she's an avowed communist Marxist and by the way, 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:34.800 you know is rapidly anti Semitic, rapidly anti history. Someone 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.400 else who Susan Rosenberg? Now, who is Susan Rosenberg? Susan 0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:42.080 Rosenberg is the vice chair of the board of directors 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.200 of Thousand Currents. Now, what is thousand Currents? Thousand Currents 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.800 is what is funding the organization Black Lives Matter? Now? 0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:53.800 Who is Susan Rosenberg? Also, she was part of the 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:58.080 revolutionary military group known as the May nineteenth communist organization 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:02.640 affiliated with the Weather Underground. She was convicted of weapons 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:07.439 and explosive charges and sentenced to fifty eight years in prison. 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:10.360 So she's a convicted terrorist. By the way, she was 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:14.959 pardoned by Bill Clinton on the last day of his presidency. 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:17.160 It was one of those midnight and a million other 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:19.559 people were parking at the end of the administration. So 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:23.400 she was at Rosenberg in the nineteen sixties and seventies 0:13:23.760 --> 0:13:26.720 was on the FBI's most wanted list. She was caught 0:13:26.720 --> 0:13:30.439 in nineteen eighty four unloading hundreds of pounds of dynamite 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.760 and weapons including a submachine gun. So we're not talking 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:37.520 like a sort of mild little rebel. We're not just 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:43.120 a frozen water bottle. It is not so Garza, one 0:13:43.160 --> 0:13:47.080 of the Black Lives Matter founders, talks about how convicted 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:53.200 cop killer Assanta Shakur is one of her main inspirations. 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:57.360 Now Skur is right now today on the FBI's most 0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:01.640 wanted list. There's a million dollar reward for Shakur's information 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:05.439 leading to her capture. She's believed to be hiding in Cuba, 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.480 and she was a member of the Black Liberation Army, 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:14.280 another terrorist organization. She's wanted for escaping from prison, and 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:17.920 she was in prison serving a life sentence for murdering 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:21.560 a police officer. And the police officer and individual named 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:26.800 Werner Forster, was shot execution style, point black. This wasn't 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:31.440 an accidental this was and and by the way, it's 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:34.360 not like these folks are just kind of okay, we're 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:39.920 all like vaguely know each other. So Colors, one of 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:43.640 the three founders, wrote a memoir entitled When They Call 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:46.440 You a Terrorist, a Black Lives Matter Memoir. So it's 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:50.800 like what we're all about. The foreword is written by 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:55.120 Angela Davis and the epigraph is written by Shakur the 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:58.720 cop killer. Wow. So there they don't tell you this 0:14:58.760 --> 0:15:01.040 in the mainstream media. In fact, I had never heard that, 0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:03.600 and I've actually done some research into the BLM organization. 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:05.360 So Angela Davis, you wan't to talk about the anti 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:09.240 semitism of Angela Davis for a minute. She was asked, 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:12.120 so she was big apologist for the Soviet Union. Yeah, 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:16.120 I look communist, That's what they did. So she was 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:18.720 traveling to Moscow and she was asked if she would 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:21.560 speak up for the Jewish prisoners of conscience in the 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:26.960 gulags in the Soviet Union, and her answer was, and 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:32.240 this is a quote, that they are all Zionist, fascists 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:36.560 and opponents of socialism, and so therefore she would be 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:38.960 urged that she would urge that they'd be kept in prison. 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.960 Not only would she not speak up with them, she'd 0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:44.320 be like, lock them up. By the way, Angela Davis 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.520 just recently endorsed Joe Biden for president. That's right, and 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:51.320 she said he would be easy to manipulate it. Black 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.280 Lives Matter Itself refers to Israel as an apartheid state, 0:15:54.320 --> 0:16:00.200 committing genocide. That's that's their terms. But what is Black 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:02.200 Lives Matters stand for? If you go look at their 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:08.680 website yea, their number one priority is abolishing the police nationwide. Yeah, 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:11.160 which is, by the way, according to Gallup polling, opposed 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:14.440 by eighty one of Black Americans. It was either Gallup 0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:16.200 or was a YouGov pole But it just came out. 0:16:16.280 --> 0:16:19.960 And if Black Lives Matter succeeded in their stated objective 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:22.720 of abolishing police, the result would be many, many more 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.080 Black lives are lost, of course, because you would have 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:27.520 many more murders, many more rapes, many more assaults, which 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:30.480 sadly we're seeing in big cities right now as police 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:34.560 are are are being held back, but but without law enforcement, 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:38.560 those living in the most high crime neighborhoods get they're 0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:41.280 victims and many of the far too many of the 0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:43.960 victims of crime or African American and Black Lives Matter. 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:46.680 It is essentially abandoning him to that. Not only that 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:51.520 Black Lives Matter, the organization calls for abolishing the nuclear 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:56.160 family like moms and dads. Don't just say that again, 0:16:56.440 --> 0:16:59.800 it's very like they explicit and this go read their 0:16:59.800 --> 0:17:03.080 own website. Don't take my word for it. That's what 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:05.560 they're advocating for now, let me tell you. And by 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:11.200 the way, they also call for a white boycott. They 0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:15.840 say boycott white corporations, that nobody should buy anything from 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:19.320 white corporations. Now, one of the things I talked about 0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:22.240 the hearing yesterday, we're seeing all these companies, particularly tech 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:26.399 companies they're wanting to virtue signal, who are giving millions 0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:30.960 and millions of dollars right to this organization Black Lives Matter. 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:33.879 Those are among those tech companies that are doing it 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:38.240 are Microsoft, Amazon. I went and listed a whole bunch, 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:41.200 but but pause for a second and think. Look, Microsoft, 0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:45.200 it's largest shareholders a guy named Bill Gates. Yeah. Last 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:47.600 time I checked, Bill Gates, a white guy. Yeah. So 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:53.000 Microsoft is literally donating money to an organization calling for 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:56.720 people to boycott Microsoft, like like saying do not purchase 0:17:56.760 --> 0:18:01.080 any products from anything Bill Gate. Amazon. Amazon's given him money. Yeah, 0:18:01.160 --> 0:18:04.800 Jeff Bezos is a white guy. Amazon is funding a 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:10.640 group saying don't buy anything from Amazon. And it's look, 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:15.639 you want to support social justice, great, wonderful, Go support 0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.320 school choice, Go give scholarships for inner city kids to 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:20.600 go to excellent schools. There are all sorts of things 0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:24.160 you can do. But the problem is because people are 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:31.600 terrified of contradicting the indisputably true statement that black lives matter. Yeah, 0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:35.760 that they'll support this awful organization, and they are funding 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:45.199 explicit Marxists who want to destroy capitalism, destroy for enterprise, 0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:47.560 destroy the family. Speaking of our friends who were stuck 0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:50.000 at home, a number of them are writing in questions 0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:53.320 for the mail bag from Balaam's donkey. This is a 0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:54.959 Twitter account. I don't think it's this. I don't think 0:18:54.960 --> 0:18:58.119 it's this Christian name. What can I do personally to 0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:01.280 stop this madness? I'm not I'm not important. I'm not 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:03.679 even a good debater, but I know what I believe. 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:09.080 Give me specifics. Speak, speak to your friends, speak to 0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:12.600 your family, and you know what you are famous, bloms 0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:16.159 Docky Donkey, because you've got with social media, every one 0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:18.080 of us is publisher. Now I know you also on 0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:20.239 a big podcast right now, like every one of us 0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:24.240 can speak out. And I actually tell like, I don't 0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:26.320 know how how old bloms Docky is, but I talked 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:29.879 to a lot of you know, high school kids, college kids, 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:35.320 and when it comes to defending freedom, why it is 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:37.840 freedom matter? I say, Look, you can do it much better. 0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:40.880 I'm forty nine years old. How many fifteen year olds 0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:42.760 are gonna listen to me? Yeah, I'd much rather have 0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:44.600 a fifteen year old say why does it matter to 0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:49.879 be free? Use your voice to explain why freedom matters, 0:19:49.880 --> 0:19:53.880 why free speech matters. Look, the left are intolerant, totalitarian, 0:19:54.880 --> 0:20:03.840 and oppressive. So speaking out using humor, uh, telling stories? Um? 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.080 And on that point, knowing what you say. I mean 0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:08.040 Balama's donkey says he knows what he believes, and I 0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:11.040 believe him. But I think some people, you know, they 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:12.679 want to get out there and argue their point of view. 0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:15.639 The other the other side of this is study the facts, 0:20:15.640 --> 0:20:17.960 I mean, read up, no, know what your point of 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:20.720 view is, so that you can articulate why, why you 0:20:20.760 --> 0:20:22.720 support your country, why you like your freedoms while you 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:27.760 like your rights and and and help educate others. And look, 0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:32.280 left and right tend to communicate differently. Um. Too many 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:36.520 people on the right communicate like accountants. Yes, yes, just 0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:39.920 throws crazy numbers in a green eye shade. Yeah. And 0:20:39.920 --> 0:20:42.720 and the left they go for the heart. Yeah. I 0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:45.160 mean their argument is he wants to eat your children. Yeah, 0:20:45.160 --> 0:20:48.359 I mean that's what they say, right, we got to 0:20:48.400 --> 0:20:53.000 do both. It's why stories are you know, when you 0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:56.240 and I did the pod with John Voyd, Yeah, and 0:20:56.320 --> 0:20:59.000 you're we're talking to him about like storytelling is a 0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:02.640 natural skill. And actually, actually this may have been afterwards 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:06.800 where we were we were enjoying a cigar together, and 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:08.879 I think I think this was after the pod and 0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:11.400 we were we were talking with John and and I said, look, 0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:15.920 storytelling is a natural human expression of all of us, 0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:18.960 and and and it's how we all communicate. And John 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.200 discres it. No no, no, no, no no or no 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:23.760 lad I think, no, no, lad, no, you do a 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:26.960 better avoid impression than I do. But but his to 0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:30.880 be sure, there are better storytellers, and we're storytellers, right, 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:34.800 but it is how our hearts are stitched together. Yes, yeah, 0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:38.960 so tell stories. We need more than just eggheads. I 0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:40.520 mean we want, you know, we want the accounting to 0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:43.560 work out, but you have to grab people with a narrative. 0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:48.720 Chase wants to know, speaking of sometimes we're lemmings, sometimes 0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:51.639 we fight back. He has a question about owning the libs, 0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:54.640 you know, a politics of opposition, Yeah, banding together, He says, 0:21:54.920 --> 0:21:58.199 is owning the Libs a strong enough policy platform to 0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:01.760 win the House, Senate, the White House? Of course? Not so, 0:22:01.840 --> 0:22:07.160 of course not. Look this election, we win, Trump gets 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:11.000 re elected. Republicans win. If this is a battle of 0:22:11.040 --> 0:22:15.800 ideas because the left is gone insane, Yeah, their ideas 0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:19.240 are terrible. If this is a battle between socialism and 0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:23.520 free enterprise, we win. If this is a battle between 0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:31.520 abolishing the police and protecting people's safety, we win. Yeah. 0:22:31.520 --> 0:22:34.800 Like their positions are so extreme. But I suppose this 0:22:34.880 --> 0:22:37.560 raises the question because when I hear owning the Libs, 0:22:37.720 --> 0:22:40.480 there is something to this right, a politics of opposition, 0:22:40.520 --> 0:22:45.199 where because their ideas are so extreme, because they're you know, 0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:47.639 they're like pulling down statues and burning down the country. 0:22:48.119 --> 0:22:50.119 I wonder if if what Chase is asking is is 0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:53.560 it enough to just point to their craziness. So my 0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:57.160 point on this, though, is that we have to fight 0:22:57.240 --> 0:23:02.399 on the field of ideas. I think that Democrats want 0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:06.600 to make this election entirely a personality election, and they 0:23:06.640 --> 0:23:09.600 wanted a referendum. Undo you like Donald Trump? Yes or no? 0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:12.760 There's a reason Joe Biden is hiding his basement, right, 0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:15.560 And it's actually I don't think that it's seen that 0:23:15.600 --> 0:23:18.240 he's seen Island has dementia. I think they've made the decision. 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:23.720 They think they're winning on a personality popularity contest on 0:23:23.760 --> 0:23:25.640 Donald Trump, and so they just figure, all right, why 0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:28.800 you know, if you're winning, don't mess with it. Yeah 0:23:28.840 --> 0:23:32.240 and so and so. From their perspective, they would characterize 0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:35.080 it as sort of owning Trump. Let's let's just make it, yeah, 0:23:35.600 --> 0:23:39.680
