4
00:00:20,337 --> 00:00:24,857
Speaker 2: Is Michelle Obama the most overrated person of our lifetime?

5
00:00:25,297 --> 00:00:28,177
Speaker 2: To answer this question that the masters are clamoring for

6
00:00:28,257 --> 00:00:30,657
Speaker 2: answers too, we are joined for the first time by

7
00:00:30,697 --> 00:00:34,777
Speaker 2: Peachey Canaan. She is an author and a commentator and

8
00:00:34,937 --> 00:00:38,017
Speaker 2: author of the book Domestic Extremist, which I would highly

9
00:00:38,017 --> 00:00:39,617
Speaker 2: recommend to all of you and is in the background

10
00:00:39,657 --> 00:00:41,817
Speaker 2: for those of you watching us on Twitter. Peachee, I'll

11
00:00:41,817 --> 00:00:43,977
Speaker 2: hand this question off to you. I'm sure you've seen

12
00:00:44,457 --> 00:00:52,017
Speaker 2: some of Michelle's podcast entries so far, and wow, yeah, that's.

13
00:00:51,817 --> 00:00:52,737
Speaker 1: A that's a great question.

14
00:00:52,777 --> 00:00:56,817
Speaker 3: But I would say she's probably second to her illustrious husband.

15
00:00:57,377 --> 00:00:59,617
Speaker 3: It must run in the run in their family. But yeah,

16
00:00:59,697 --> 00:01:02,297
Speaker 3: her her podcast is really funny. I think there was.

17
00:01:02,497 --> 00:01:05,497
Speaker 3: It's very obviously. I think what happened there after the

18
00:01:05,537 --> 00:01:09,057
Speaker 3: November election, all the like you know, Pods of America

19
00:01:09,097 --> 00:01:12,377
Speaker 3: bros were like, we need podcasts, we need a better

20
00:01:12,417 --> 00:01:15,777
Speaker 3: we need better messengers Trump one because of Rogan and

21
00:01:15,817 --> 00:01:19,537
Speaker 3: all these bro podcasts. What can we do to reclaim

22
00:01:20,217 --> 00:01:23,177
Speaker 3: podcasting for the Democrats, and like, who was the first

23
00:01:23,217 --> 00:01:27,817
Speaker 3: person they called Michelle Obama because America is dying to

24
00:01:27,857 --> 00:01:31,057
Speaker 3: hear from her, and uh yeah, her and her weird

25
00:01:31,097 --> 00:01:34,337
Speaker 3: brother who looks like a looks like a drag queen

26
00:01:34,497 --> 00:01:36,937
Speaker 3: out of his makeup, doesn't he Like, they're just so

27
00:01:37,137 --> 00:01:37,897
Speaker 3: very weird pair.

28
00:01:38,137 --> 00:01:40,497
Speaker 1: I don't know, no one's watching this right, Like, are

29
00:01:40,497 --> 00:01:41,177
Speaker 1: you watching this? Like?

30
00:01:41,257 --> 00:01:43,297
Speaker 2: Does anyone wanting I see some of the clips. I

31
00:01:43,337 --> 00:01:45,497
Speaker 2: will tell you. As I was talking with this on radio,

32
00:01:45,577 --> 00:01:48,857
Speaker 2: my wife, who is always up on the latest media

33
00:01:48,897 --> 00:01:50,737
Speaker 2: eyed stuff because she used to work at Fox News,

34
00:01:51,017 --> 00:01:54,257
Speaker 2: she sent me that Michelle Obama's podcast on you know YouTube.

35
00:01:54,297 --> 00:01:56,697
Speaker 2: You can see the views it has in three or

36
00:01:56,697 --> 00:01:59,617
Speaker 2: four episodes. The audience has gone from I think a

37
00:01:59,657 --> 00:02:02,977
Speaker 2: couple hundred thousand down to it's cut in half, which

38
00:02:03,017 --> 00:02:05,257
Speaker 2: is not what you would expect for a former First lady,

39
00:02:05,257 --> 00:02:07,737
Speaker 2: with the entire media not only rooting for her but

40
00:02:07,857 --> 00:02:10,577
Speaker 2: telling you that she is simultaneously a saint genius and

41
00:02:10,657 --> 00:02:13,217
Speaker 2: the greatest person I know. I don't want to fight

42
00:02:13,257 --> 00:02:15,697
Speaker 2: with you, Peach, but I'll say this with Barack Obama,

43
00:02:16,297 --> 00:02:21,737
Speaker 2: if you criticized him, you were racist. With uh. With

44
00:02:21,937 --> 00:02:26,217
Speaker 2: Michelle Obama, if you criticized her, you were you were

45
00:02:26,377 --> 00:02:29,217
Speaker 2: actually hitler, and that's that's I think those were the rules,

46
00:02:30,417 --> 00:02:31,977
Speaker 2: right Yeah.

47
00:02:32,017 --> 00:02:35,977
Speaker 3: I think it's incredible hubris of these first ladies. I

48
00:02:35,977 --> 00:02:39,617
Speaker 3: think Hillary Clinton is another example of this, who think

49
00:02:39,657 --> 00:02:42,817
Speaker 3: that because their husbands won, because they had some political

50
00:02:42,857 --> 00:02:46,497
Speaker 3: flare or whatever, that they also won something like they

51
00:02:46,617 --> 00:02:50,737
Speaker 3: also were awarded best Personality of the Year or whatever

52
00:02:50,737 --> 00:02:52,737
Speaker 3: it is, and they go on to have these media

53
00:02:52,817 --> 00:02:55,537
Speaker 3: careers and I'm not really sure what and they're just

54
00:02:55,577 --> 00:02:58,337
Speaker 3: completely propped up by I don't know. I mean, she

55
00:02:58,377 --> 00:03:00,297
Speaker 3: did sell a lot of books, Okay, she did have

56
00:03:00,337 --> 00:03:03,217
Speaker 3: these big book tours and sell million millions of books supposedly,

57
00:03:03,217 --> 00:03:05,217
Speaker 3: although I would go to Costco and there'd be a

58
00:03:05,297 --> 00:03:08,457
Speaker 3: huge stack of Michelle Obama books, you know, discounted for

59
00:03:08,537 --> 00:03:09,697
Speaker 3: like four ninety nine inah.

60
00:03:10,297 --> 00:03:13,697
Speaker 2: So this is so funny to me because I've thought

61
00:03:13,697 --> 00:03:17,457
Speaker 2: about this many times because I've been in people's homes

62
00:03:17,497 --> 00:03:20,057
Speaker 2: and one of the things that you can tell about somebody, right, well, rather,

63
00:03:20,257 --> 00:03:21,417
Speaker 2: all you really need to do to know a lot

64
00:03:21,457 --> 00:03:22,657
Speaker 2: about a person is first of all, do they have

65
00:03:22,657 --> 00:03:25,257
Speaker 2: any books in their home? And then second of all,

66
00:03:25,777 --> 00:03:27,977
Speaker 2: when you look at the books they have, are these

67
00:03:27,977 --> 00:03:29,937
Speaker 2: books that are for reading or books that are for showing?

68
00:03:30,537 --> 00:03:35,457
Speaker 2: And I think Michelle Obama books are books that people have,

69
00:03:35,657 --> 00:03:37,777
Speaker 2: even if it's not a coffee table book, they haven't

70
00:03:37,897 --> 00:03:40,217
Speaker 2: like on or near the coffee table or like prominent

71
00:03:40,257 --> 00:03:43,137
Speaker 2: on the shelf because it's a you know, hey, look

72
00:03:43,177 --> 00:03:45,657
Speaker 2: at me. I think I would guess, And there's no

73
00:03:45,697 --> 00:03:48,217
Speaker 2: way of ever knowing because people people all lie about how.

74
00:03:48,137 --> 00:03:48,697
Speaker 4: Much they read.

75
00:03:48,737 --> 00:03:51,497
Speaker 2: They certainly lie about what books they've read, what books

76
00:03:51,497 --> 00:03:57,537
Speaker 2: they read, what books they've read. Sorry, but the truth

77
00:03:57,537 --> 00:03:59,457
Speaker 2: to me is that Michelle Obama books, of the people

78
00:03:59,497 --> 00:04:01,537
Speaker 2: who bought them, I would guess less than ten percent

79
00:04:01,697 --> 00:04:03,817
Speaker 2: actually read the book in any meaning.

80
00:04:04,017 --> 00:04:04,897
Speaker 1: Right, it's right.

81
00:04:04,897 --> 00:04:06,737
Speaker 3: But if you have the book and someone sees it

82
00:04:06,777 --> 00:04:12,057
Speaker 3: in your house, they know you're not racists. Yeah, it's

83
00:04:12,177 --> 00:04:14,777
Speaker 3: it's right next to white fragility, you know, and maybe

84
00:04:14,817 --> 00:04:19,057
Speaker 3: like an Ebram X Candy children's book or whatever, and

85
00:04:19,697 --> 00:04:22,017
Speaker 3: you know whatever those little he was making, like anti

86
00:04:22,177 --> 00:04:23,977
Speaker 3: anti racist baby board books.

87
00:04:23,977 --> 00:04:25,057
Speaker 1: You remember, it's all this whole.

88
00:04:25,697 --> 00:04:29,457
Speaker 3: I'm not a racist because I have the correct media,

89
00:04:29,977 --> 00:04:32,777
Speaker 3: the correct media diet, so I'm allowed.

90
00:04:32,457 --> 00:04:35,337
Speaker 2: To be white My favorite coffee shop when I lived

91
00:04:35,377 --> 00:04:36,977
Speaker 2: in New York that was near me was a place

92
00:04:37,017 --> 00:04:42,017
Speaker 2: called Ground Central, and it was exactly I mean it was.

93
00:04:42,057 --> 00:04:44,377
Speaker 2: You could look at the entire this was in Manhattan.

94
00:04:45,057 --> 00:04:50,017
Speaker 2: Tire staff clearly came in from like transitioning parts of Brooklyn, right.

95
00:04:50,777 --> 00:04:52,097
Speaker 4: They were all white.

96
00:04:53,177 --> 00:04:55,497
Speaker 2: They're all coming in from like you know, their bedsty,

97
00:04:56,097 --> 00:04:59,097
Speaker 2: you know share uh and you know they they've stopped

98
00:04:59,097 --> 00:05:01,257
Speaker 2: like pickling their own beats or whatever for a minute

99
00:05:01,257 --> 00:05:03,337
Speaker 2: to come here. Now, I will say the coffee, the

100
00:05:03,377 --> 00:05:06,577
Speaker 2: coffee was amazing. But but and that's why I had

101
00:05:06,577 --> 00:05:10,097
Speaker 2: to keep going there reading shelf that they had. I

102
00:05:10,177 --> 00:05:11,857
Speaker 2: used to take photos of this because I was it

103
00:05:11,937 --> 00:05:16,337
Speaker 2: was so immaculately curated to show everybody what the people

104
00:05:16,377 --> 00:05:19,377
Speaker 2: who worked in this store wanted people to believe they're about.

105
00:05:19,417 --> 00:05:19,857
Speaker 4: It was all that.

106
00:05:20,097 --> 00:05:24,377
Speaker 2: It was Ibra Mix, Kendy, Michelle Obama, Tana Hesse Coates.

107
00:05:24,377 --> 00:05:27,857
Speaker 2: It was like like not a they never I never once,

108
00:05:27,937 --> 00:05:30,297
Speaker 2: with the exception of Robin DiAngelo. And I mean this,

109
00:05:30,377 --> 00:05:32,417
Speaker 2: And I got my coffee there every day. Saw on

110
00:05:32,457 --> 00:05:35,617
Speaker 2: their reading shelf, which was like prominently displayed a book

111
00:05:35,617 --> 00:05:39,937
Speaker 2: written by a white person. Not allowed, not not Okay, no,

112
00:05:39,977 --> 00:05:42,177
Speaker 2: that's so anyway, So you buy a Michelle Obama book

113
00:05:42,177 --> 00:05:43,617
Speaker 2: and it's it's like, you get it all done.

114
00:05:43,617 --> 00:05:44,937
Speaker 4: You don't even have to have the whole shelf. You

115
00:05:44,977 --> 00:05:46,057
Speaker 4: just show everybody who you are.

116
00:05:46,217 --> 00:05:50,577
Speaker 3: Actually that I think the Harvard English Literature curriculum probably

117
00:05:50,617 --> 00:05:54,777
Speaker 3: matches the Starbucks that that that your coffee shops.

118
00:05:55,137 --> 00:05:56,657
Speaker 1: No, I'm sure recommended booklets.

119
00:05:56,817 --> 00:05:57,017
Speaker 4: Yeah.

120
00:05:57,177 --> 00:05:59,777
Speaker 2: I can't even imagine. When I went to AMers twenty

121
00:06:01,257 --> 00:06:04,257
Speaker 2: twenty something years ago. Now it was our Yeah, it

122
00:06:04,297 --> 00:06:07,537
Speaker 2: was already insane. And I try to tell people stories

123
00:06:07,537 --> 00:06:09,137
Speaker 2: and they're like, there's no way it was that crazy.

124
00:06:09,137 --> 00:06:11,737
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, no, I promise it was just as crazy.

125
00:06:11,897 --> 00:06:12,137
Speaker 4: You know.

126
00:06:12,697 --> 00:06:14,777
Speaker 2: I was gonna say Trump is Hitler, Bush's Hitler, and

127
00:06:14,817 --> 00:06:17,657
Speaker 2: like we're fascist. Flag burning after nine to eleven that

128
00:06:17,737 --> 00:06:20,617
Speaker 2: happened on my campus, Like yeah, it was real.

129
00:06:20,857 --> 00:06:22,457
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and that was a real thing. I was there.

130
00:06:22,577 --> 00:06:24,977
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously not burning the flags. They had cops there,

131
00:06:25,297 --> 00:06:27,417
Speaker 2: classic lib thing. They had to make sure the cops

132
00:06:27,417 --> 00:06:29,897
Speaker 2: were there because they knew that if they just did

133
00:06:29,897 --> 00:06:32,937
Speaker 2: this people would punch them, so they had the cops

134
00:06:32,937 --> 00:06:35,577
Speaker 2: there to defend them. Burning the American flag after nine

135
00:06:35,577 --> 00:06:37,937
Speaker 2: to eleven because they want to stick it to the patriarchy.

136
00:06:37,977 --> 00:06:40,297
Speaker 2: I'm like, except for these cops who are dudes with

137
00:06:40,377 --> 00:06:43,257
Speaker 2: guns that you're begging to protect you, let's come back

138
00:06:43,417 --> 00:06:45,137
Speaker 2: you mentioned Harvard. I actually want to dive into this

139
00:06:45,177 --> 00:06:47,617
Speaker 2: with you and talk. I know you've got got a

140
00:06:47,657 --> 00:06:49,497
Speaker 2: couple of kids go through the college process, so I'll

141
00:06:49,497 --> 00:06:51,777
Speaker 2: find this to be a lot of fun, maybe cathartic.

142
00:06:51,817 --> 00:06:55,177
Speaker 2: Even looking out for the lives of unborn children is

143
00:06:55,177 --> 00:06:57,737
Speaker 2: what Preborn does day in and day out. Their highest

144
00:06:57,737 --> 00:07:01,337
Speaker 2: priority is saving the lives of as many pregnant babies

145
00:07:01,337 --> 00:07:04,177
Speaker 2: as possible. Last year, Preborn made it possible for more

146
00:07:04,217 --> 00:07:08,457
Speaker 2: than tens of thousands of unborn children to realize life.

147
00:07:08,657 --> 00:07:11,497
Speaker 2: They do this by welcoming mothers into their clinics across

148
00:07:11,497 --> 00:07:14,577
Speaker 2: the country, giving them love, support and care, and a

149
00:07:14,617 --> 00:07:17,257
Speaker 2: free ultrasound so they can meet the tiny life growing

150
00:07:17,337 --> 00:07:20,497
Speaker 2: in their womb. Through this process, Preborn has helped to

151
00:07:20,537 --> 00:07:24,257
Speaker 2: save over two decades, three hundred and fifty thousand babies.

152
00:07:24,857 --> 00:07:28,217
Speaker 2: One way that Preborn achieves this is, of course, that ultrasound.

153
00:07:28,297 --> 00:07:32,577
Speaker 2: But it's only possible with your help your donations. Preborn

154
00:07:32,657 --> 00:07:35,817
Speaker 2: gets no government funding, a twenty eight dollars expense per

155
00:07:35,897 --> 00:07:38,577
Speaker 2: ultrasound is all it takes as a donation to help

156
00:07:38,617 --> 00:07:40,977
Speaker 2: save a life. And if you could do ten of those,

157
00:07:40,977 --> 00:07:45,057
Speaker 2: that would be two hundred and eighty dollars or ten ultrasounds,

158
00:07:45,257 --> 00:07:50,337
Speaker 2: which would possibly save ten tiny babies lives. To donate securely,

159
00:07:50,457 --> 00:07:53,137
Speaker 2: just dial pound two fifty and say the keyword baby.

160
00:07:53,377 --> 00:07:55,977
Speaker 2: That's pound two five zero, say baby. Or go to

161
00:07:56,017 --> 00:07:59,537
Speaker 2: preborn dot com slash buck. That's preborn dot com slash

162
00:07:59,617 --> 00:08:03,697
Speaker 2: buck sponsored by Preborn. All right, peachey. So Trump is

163
00:08:03,737 --> 00:08:08,057
Speaker 2: going after Harvard, which is I love and I'd say

164
00:08:08,057 --> 00:08:09,337
Speaker 2: these people do It's not just Harvard. I'd love it

165
00:08:09,337 --> 00:08:10,697
Speaker 2: if you did it to AMers too, and I went there.

166
00:08:10,697 --> 00:08:11,137
Speaker 4: I don't care.

167
00:08:11,377 --> 00:08:14,657
Speaker 2: I think this is fantastic. Why do you think it's fantastic.

168
00:08:14,657 --> 00:08:16,417
Speaker 2: I'm guessing you at least feel that way about it.

169
00:08:18,457 --> 00:08:20,097
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it. I you know, I went to

170
00:08:20,097 --> 00:08:20,777
Speaker 1: the Ivy League.

171
00:08:20,977 --> 00:08:23,097
Speaker 3: I didn't didn't go to Harvard. But I think they

172
00:08:23,097 --> 00:08:25,337
Speaker 3: should all, you know, burn them all down at this.

173
00:08:25,297 --> 00:08:27,617
Speaker 2: Point, and not just Cornell, because if you went to Cornell,

174
00:08:27,697 --> 00:08:29,737
Speaker 2: I think I have to make fun, okay, because I

175
00:08:29,737 --> 00:08:32,537
Speaker 2: love I love the Cornell people who are always like, well,

176
00:08:32,537 --> 00:08:34,057
Speaker 2: I went to an Ivy League school, and it's just

177
00:08:34,097 --> 00:08:35,737
Speaker 2: like if you say that and not the name, it's

178
00:08:35,817 --> 00:08:36,577
Speaker 2: usually Cornell.

179
00:08:37,777 --> 00:08:39,377
Speaker 1: I'm not thinking I don't want to be docs, but

180
00:08:39,617 --> 00:08:40,577
Speaker 1: I yeah, I did. I did.

181
00:08:40,657 --> 00:08:42,777
Speaker 3: I did not go to Cornell or Harvard. You can

182
00:08:42,897 --> 00:08:45,817
Speaker 3: use you know, keep guessing, but I won't tell you.

183
00:08:45,897 --> 00:08:49,297
Speaker 3: But anyway, they're all like this, not just Harvard. The

184
00:08:49,417 --> 00:08:53,417
Speaker 3: ucs here in California are like this. Also with the numbers.

185
00:08:53,497 --> 00:08:56,097
Speaker 3: I just wrote an article about this at tom Clint

186
00:08:56,297 --> 00:09:01,857
Speaker 3: Klingenstein dot com called poisoned IVYS, which is about how,

187
00:09:02,657 --> 00:09:06,017
Speaker 3: you know, the great replacement or whatever has already been

188
00:09:06,057 --> 00:09:10,977
Speaker 3: completed at many of these elite institutions were large numbers

189
00:09:11,017 --> 00:09:15,657
Speaker 3: of the student body is no longer American, and not

190
00:09:15,737 --> 00:09:20,137
Speaker 3: even like you know, undocumented whatever American like people here,

191
00:09:20,217 --> 00:09:22,417
Speaker 3: like you know, the children of illegals, the dreamers, not

192
00:09:22,457 --> 00:09:22,937
Speaker 3: even them.

193
00:09:23,137 --> 00:09:24,657
Speaker 1: People who literally arrive in this.

194
00:09:24,697 --> 00:09:27,737
Speaker 3: Country for the first day of school can kind of

195
00:09:27,737 --> 00:09:30,897
Speaker 3: barely speak English from you know, the Chinese mainland and.

196
00:09:32,297 --> 00:09:35,497
Speaker 1: The Gulf States, and you know, rich, rich people from

197
00:09:35,537 --> 00:09:39,377
Speaker 1: around the world are coming into these schools and what

198
00:09:39,457 --> 00:09:41,657
Speaker 1: is it a thirty percent including grad school at Harvard,

199
00:09:41,657 --> 00:09:45,737
Speaker 1: and I think similarly at UCLA. Okay, and like in

200
00:09:45,817 --> 00:09:48,977
Speaker 1: terms of UCLA, like the state schools, these are schools

201
00:09:48,977 --> 00:09:51,897
Speaker 1: that we pay for, like Californians pay for these schools.

202
00:09:51,977 --> 00:09:56,817
Speaker 1: We fund these state schools UCLA, Berkeley, UC San Diego.

203
00:09:56,857 --> 00:09:57,977
Speaker 1: These were schools.

204
00:09:58,537 --> 00:10:03,057
Speaker 2: Built your tax dollars from your property taxes, your income

205
00:10:03,057 --> 00:10:06,057
Speaker 2: taxes in California, which you're insane, is the reason that

206
00:10:06,137 --> 00:10:07,777
Speaker 2: UCLA et cetera exists.

207
00:10:08,577 --> 00:10:12,457
Speaker 3: Right, We pay for them to educate California kids. That's

208
00:10:12,497 --> 00:10:14,417
Speaker 3: the goal of these schools, just like the University of

209
00:10:14,457 --> 00:10:18,497
Speaker 3: Texas is for largely kids in Texas. Right, these state

210
00:10:18,537 --> 00:10:22,337
Speaker 3: schools should be educating majority of the kids in California.

211
00:10:22,617 --> 00:10:25,057
Speaker 3: And then there's out of state kids too who go like, yes,

212
00:10:25,297 --> 00:10:27,457
Speaker 3: from another state, you should be Yes, you're allowed in

213
00:10:27,497 --> 00:10:27,737
Speaker 3: to U.

214
00:10:27,817 --> 00:10:29,897
Speaker 1: See you pay high way harder tuition.

215
00:10:30,697 --> 00:10:33,617
Speaker 3: Fine, you want to put a few international kids who

216
00:10:33,617 --> 00:10:36,537
Speaker 3: are like some kind of spectacular nerds or whatever, you know,

217
00:10:36,697 --> 00:10:40,377
Speaker 3: super nerds, you know, into MIT whatever. Great, But in

218
00:10:40,457 --> 00:10:44,337
Speaker 3: these huge numbers, what it's done is made these schools

219
00:10:44,697 --> 00:10:48,657
Speaker 3: just honestly so difficult to get into. On top of

220
00:10:48,817 --> 00:10:53,937
Speaker 3: just the regular American you know, DEI, affirmative action filters,

221
00:10:53,977 --> 00:10:56,657
Speaker 3: like you have all of this. So if you're just like,

222
00:10:56,737 --> 00:10:59,737
Speaker 3: let's say, a very high achieving, you know, straight white

223
00:10:59,817 --> 00:11:02,817
Speaker 3: kid who isn't gay or trans or queer or whatever

224
00:11:03,377 --> 00:11:05,697
Speaker 3: and has a very high GPA and does great on

225
00:11:05,737 --> 00:11:09,537
Speaker 3: the SATs and stuff, he's literally got no shot unless

226
00:11:09,537 --> 00:11:14,577
Speaker 3: he's a superstar varsity athlete or has some other extraordinary

227
00:11:14,857 --> 00:11:17,937
Speaker 3: you know, capability in him. There's just no shot. Ucla

228
00:11:18,817 --> 00:11:21,377
Speaker 3: was my safety school, Okay. When I went to college,

229
00:11:21,537 --> 00:11:23,457
Speaker 3: Ucla was like beneath me, Like I was like I

230
00:11:23,457 --> 00:11:24,577
Speaker 3: would never have been caught dead.

231
00:11:24,737 --> 00:11:27,137
Speaker 1: Like, let's just like now it.

232
00:11:27,097 --> 00:11:29,897
Speaker 3: Had because it had like a fifty sixty seventy percent acceptance, right,

233
00:11:30,057 --> 00:11:32,457
Speaker 3: you know, I wanted to go to like a fancy

234
00:11:32,537 --> 00:11:35,577
Speaker 3: private school in the East Coast. Now UCLA is eight

235
00:11:35,617 --> 00:11:42,737
Speaker 3: percent acceptance, Okay, eight percent. That's insane to me. Yeah,

236
00:11:42,737 --> 00:11:45,417
Speaker 3: and then all the spots, So how many spots are

237
00:11:45,457 --> 00:11:49,097
Speaker 3: actually in each freshman class for kids like kids like

238
00:11:49,097 --> 00:11:53,977
Speaker 3: my son California, you know, can't check any diversity boxes

239
00:11:54,217 --> 00:11:57,337
Speaker 3: high achieving, Like, how many spots in that class go

240
00:11:57,417 --> 00:11:58,057
Speaker 3: to kids like that?

241
00:11:58,577 --> 00:12:01,577
Speaker 1: Like one hundred spots? Like very small, They're just.

242
00:12:01,537 --> 00:12:04,857
Speaker 3: Being taken up by so many of these foreign students

243
00:12:04,897 --> 00:12:07,137
Speaker 3: who are paying yes, full price, and so seeing it

244
00:12:07,177 --> 00:12:11,057
Speaker 3: happen at Harvard is thrilling. And they meanwhile, half of

245
00:12:11,097 --> 00:12:12,937
Speaker 3: them are what Chinese CCP spies.

246
00:12:13,337 --> 00:12:14,057
Speaker 4: Well, this is the other.

247
00:12:14,217 --> 00:12:17,857
Speaker 2: So there's I break this down peach into there's the

248
00:12:17,897 --> 00:12:20,377
Speaker 2: America first component of this, which I think that is

249
00:12:20,497 --> 00:12:24,097
Speaker 2: very apt for this aspect of it in California couldn't

250
00:12:24,097 --> 00:12:26,537
Speaker 2: be any more clear. I mean state schools. You're you're

251
00:12:26,737 --> 00:12:30,457
Speaker 2: educating foreign kids in our state schools in huge numbers, right,

252
00:12:30,777 --> 00:12:33,217
Speaker 2: you know, you want to talk about like diversity. I'm

253
00:12:33,217 --> 00:12:35,457
Speaker 2: a little bit okay with the idea of a small

254
00:12:35,457 --> 00:12:38,617
Speaker 2: percentage of the student body comes from other countries, because

255
00:12:38,617 --> 00:12:41,097
Speaker 2: that is kind of interesting. But I want it to

256
00:12:41,097 --> 00:12:44,817
Speaker 2: be I want it to be five percent, maybe ten percent,

257
00:12:45,497 --> 00:12:51,057
Speaker 2: max max mit thirty percent. You Penn thirty percent, Harvard

258
00:12:51,137 --> 00:12:56,577
Speaker 2: thirty foreign kids. I think Colombia is more like fifty percent.

259
00:12:56,657 --> 00:12:57,777
Speaker 2: I mean these schools.

260
00:12:57,857 --> 00:12:58,857
Speaker 1: Columbia is really weird.

261
00:12:58,937 --> 00:13:01,617
Speaker 2: Yeah, Columbia is super high. These schools are just full

262
00:13:01,617 --> 00:13:04,097
Speaker 2: of kids from all over the world. And by the way,

263
00:13:04,097 --> 00:13:05,937
Speaker 2: this whole notion of like oh well, like we're taking

264
00:13:05,937 --> 00:13:10,817
Speaker 2: the best of the best, full crap. They can't based

265
00:13:10,857 --> 00:13:13,657
Speaker 2: on what and this this idea that we shouldn't advantage.

266
00:13:13,697 --> 00:13:15,417
Speaker 2: So there's the America first components you would agree on.

267
00:13:15,457 --> 00:13:19,377
Speaker 2: But what you touched on about this as well is

268
00:13:19,377 --> 00:13:21,897
Speaker 2: is the the CCP. I mean, you look at MIT,

269
00:13:22,017 --> 00:13:24,137
Speaker 2: you look at where the government funding is in some

270
00:13:24,177 --> 00:13:26,497
Speaker 2: of these schools. Critically the schools you actually have to

271
00:13:26,497 --> 00:13:28,217
Speaker 2: be able to do something to go, which is kind

272
00:13:28,217 --> 00:13:30,377
Speaker 2: of to their to their credit, right, Like, you don't

273
00:13:30,377 --> 00:13:34,257
Speaker 2: go to cal Tech because Daddy donated the you know,

274
00:13:34,297 --> 00:13:36,057
Speaker 2: the the lounge room for the crew team, right, Like,

275
00:13:36,057 --> 00:13:38,257
Speaker 2: if you go to cal Tech, my chances are you

276
00:13:38,257 --> 00:13:40,737
Speaker 2: can do some math. I would assume, uh, same thing

277
00:13:40,777 --> 00:13:43,017
Speaker 2: with mi T Like if you go to these places,

278
00:13:43,297 --> 00:13:46,737
Speaker 2: there's a there's a skill set that but they also

279
00:13:46,777 --> 00:13:49,777
Speaker 2: do things like figure out how to do missile technology

280
00:13:50,017 --> 00:13:55,017
Speaker 2: and they also work on drones. And the university technology

281
00:13:55,057 --> 00:13:58,777
Speaker 2: centers are infiltrated by the CCP and other places all

282
00:13:58,817 --> 00:14:01,817
Speaker 2: the time. We're supposed to think that they're really good

283
00:14:01,857 --> 00:14:03,897
Speaker 2: at keeping the stuff out of the hands of foreign students.

284
00:14:04,057 --> 00:14:06,017
Speaker 4: But why is the CCP so obsessed with sending their

285
00:14:06,057 --> 00:14:08,377
Speaker 4: kids here? Yeah?

286
00:14:08,417 --> 00:14:11,017
Speaker 1: I think it's obvious. What's happening there exploiting all these.

287
00:14:10,857 --> 00:14:15,297
Speaker 3: Loopholes and their children are these you know rich the

288
00:14:15,377 --> 00:14:18,137
Speaker 3: rich children of you know, the Chinese elite. But when

289
00:14:18,177 --> 00:14:22,177
Speaker 3: they come here, they're just another diversity quota box that

290
00:14:22,217 --> 00:14:25,417
Speaker 3: they've been able to check off. Oh, a student of

291
00:14:25,497 --> 00:14:28,697
Speaker 3: Asian descent, a foreign student, and so that makes the

292
00:14:28,737 --> 00:14:31,257
Speaker 3: school feel good, look good. Look at our numbers they

293
00:14:31,297 --> 00:14:34,137
Speaker 3: love to put in the brochure, over fifty percent you know,

294
00:14:34,257 --> 00:14:39,297
Speaker 3: minority whatever students. These children are not minorities in China.

295
00:14:39,337 --> 00:14:39,697
Speaker 1: They're not.

296
00:14:40,177 --> 00:14:42,617
Speaker 3: No Chinese person is a minority, like in the world,

297
00:14:42,657 --> 00:14:45,137
Speaker 3: like chin Chinese are like what a third of the world, Like,

298
00:14:45,177 --> 00:14:46,657
Speaker 3: they're not minorities.

299
00:14:46,697 --> 00:14:50,657
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, they're Chinese are the least minority people on

300
00:14:50,697 --> 00:14:52,337
Speaker 2: a global scale, right in existence?

301
00:14:53,177 --> 00:14:56,057
Speaker 3: Right, they don't need our schools like, they do not

302
00:14:56,257 --> 00:14:59,177
Speaker 3: need our schools. They have plenty of schools. Why are

303
00:14:59,217 --> 00:15:01,577
Speaker 3: they so interested in sending it here? Is it for

304
00:15:01,657 --> 00:15:04,537
Speaker 3: the prestige of Harvard? Okay, they can go and brag

305
00:15:04,577 --> 00:15:07,057
Speaker 3: if their kid is at the American university? Is it

306
00:15:07,097 --> 00:15:09,697
Speaker 3: so their children can then have anchor babies and they

307
00:15:09,697 --> 00:15:12,897
Speaker 3: can all then now the whole family gets a passport.

308
00:15:13,017 --> 00:15:15,217
Speaker 1: This is what I tell access to the United States.

309
00:15:15,297 --> 00:15:18,177
Speaker 2: Okay, well you see this in California. And I've been

310
00:15:18,257 --> 00:15:20,217
Speaker 2: using this argument for years because of people it's always

311
00:15:20,257 --> 00:15:22,937
Speaker 2: like what about the dreamers, and like you know, uh,

312
00:15:23,297 --> 00:15:25,137
Speaker 2: you know, a little so and so just came across

313
00:15:25,137 --> 00:15:27,057
Speaker 2: the border. He's going to start the next school. I'm like, okay,

314
00:15:27,217 --> 00:15:29,737
Speaker 2: this is on the birthright citizenship issue a whole. On

315
00:15:29,737 --> 00:15:32,217
Speaker 2: a second, in California, they have hotels. I know you

316
00:15:32,257 --> 00:15:35,657
Speaker 2: know this, but for the audience, they have hotels. We're Chinese,

317
00:15:35,737 --> 00:15:38,857
Speaker 2: and it's overwhelmingly Chinese who do this. Chinese show up,

318
00:15:39,257 --> 00:15:42,657
Speaker 2: give birth, go back to China, and then come back

319
00:15:42,737 --> 00:15:46,497
Speaker 2: when they're eighteen with a US passport in hand, go

320
00:15:46,537 --> 00:15:50,977
Speaker 2: to UCLA or USC or whatever with their with their

321
00:15:51,017 --> 00:15:54,897
Speaker 2: American citizenship, even though they are fully Chinese, and then

322
00:15:54,937 --> 00:15:57,697
Speaker 2: they sponsor their whole family to come over here and we're.

323
00:15:57,897 --> 00:16:01,897
Speaker 1: H and they pay and then they pay in state tuition.

324
00:16:02,497 --> 00:16:06,177
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, fourteen thousand a year versus like forty out

325
00:16:06,177 --> 00:16:07,257
Speaker 3: of state or foreign.

326
00:16:07,777 --> 00:16:09,177
Speaker 1: So it's a complete scam. Yeah.

327
00:16:09,217 --> 00:16:13,097
Speaker 3: In the in Orange, they have these houses and they're

328
00:16:13,137 --> 00:16:16,537
Speaker 3: just Chinese anchor baby mills, and they'll be a home

329
00:16:16,657 --> 00:16:20,457
Speaker 3: filled with like fifteen or twenty Chinese women and they

330
00:16:20,497 --> 00:16:24,137
Speaker 3: come here pregnant, they deliver and then go back and

331
00:16:24,177 --> 00:16:26,617
Speaker 3: they even have like a there's even a surrogacy industry

332
00:16:26,617 --> 00:16:30,897
Speaker 3: where Chinese couple in China will ship their frozen embryos

333
00:16:31,497 --> 00:16:34,657
Speaker 3: to a surrogate in one of these homes to have

334
00:16:34,697 --> 00:16:37,417
Speaker 3: their child, and then the child has flown back to

335
00:16:37,537 --> 00:16:39,937
Speaker 3: China for them, like they never even have to come here.

336
00:16:40,337 --> 00:16:41,337
Speaker 4: I hadn't even heard about it.

337
00:16:41,377 --> 00:16:43,857
Speaker 1: And that is that is yeah, and that's that is

338
00:16:43,897 --> 00:16:44,857
Speaker 1: Orange County.

339
00:16:44,937 --> 00:16:48,417
Speaker 3: These and I mean in the area around like Irvine, California,

340
00:16:48,457 --> 00:16:50,417
Speaker 3: which is like heavily Asian, and in fact.

341
00:16:50,257 --> 00:16:53,497
Speaker 1: You see Irvine, I mean I have friends there.

342
00:16:53,577 --> 00:16:56,377
Speaker 3: It's they their reports are like this is just a

343
00:16:56,417 --> 00:17:02,977
Speaker 3: completely one percent basically Chinese neat nationalists national school. It's

344
00:17:02,977 --> 00:17:07,137
Speaker 3: like the University of China in Irvine. I mean, you know,

345
00:17:07,257 --> 00:17:09,737
Speaker 3: you'd think, okay, we're here. Really, if it's going to

346
00:17:09,777 --> 00:17:11,977
Speaker 3: be any their country, it should be Mexico, like make

347
00:17:11,977 --> 00:17:15,057
Speaker 3: it the University of Mexico. But the Chinese have gained

348
00:17:15,177 --> 00:17:19,657
Speaker 3: the system. They're very smart, like we left these giant

349
00:17:19,657 --> 00:17:23,297
Speaker 3: holes and they're just coming through in in trucks loaded

350
00:17:23,337 --> 00:17:26,257
Speaker 3: with with their kids and we're letting and we're paying

351
00:17:26,297 --> 00:17:28,617
Speaker 3: for it, like we're paying to educate their children.

352
00:17:28,777 --> 00:17:30,937
Speaker 1: My son did not get into u C. L A.

353
00:17:32,497 --> 00:17:33,017
Speaker 4: There we go.

354
00:17:33,177 --> 00:17:35,217
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look at what happened to Aunt Becky

355
00:17:35,377 --> 00:17:39,177
Speaker 2: from Full House, you know, ended up doing prison time

356
00:17:39,657 --> 00:17:42,177
Speaker 2: because I'm a huge am Becky fan. As a kid,

357
00:17:42,417 --> 00:17:46,097
Speaker 2: just trying to get you know, little Skylar Taylor or

358
00:17:46,137 --> 00:17:48,337
Speaker 2: whatever her daughter's name is.

359
00:17:47,897 --> 00:17:52,177
Speaker 4: Into us C. So USC, I think it was us C.

360
00:17:52,577 --> 00:17:57,297
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, USC, and like pretended she can row crew,

361
00:17:57,737 --> 00:17:59,617
Speaker 2: which that girl, I mean maybe she could have been

362
00:17:59,617 --> 00:18:00,737
Speaker 2: a Coxon, but like she was not.

363
00:18:00,977 --> 00:18:03,737
Speaker 1: You know, that's so ridiculous.

364
00:18:03,817 --> 00:18:05,977
Speaker 2: I know I dated a crew girl. I know crew girls.

365
00:18:06,017 --> 00:18:07,537
Speaker 2: Let me tell you that girl is not a crew girl.

366
00:18:07,577 --> 00:18:09,897
Speaker 1: Like they yeah, they'll yeah, they'll bench you.

367
00:18:10,457 --> 00:18:12,137
Speaker 4: It will bench you. Yeah, you gotta be into that

368
00:18:12,177 --> 00:18:12,617
Speaker 4: kind of thing.

369
00:18:12,697 --> 00:18:17,137
Speaker 3: So the funny thing about sorry, but the funniest thing

370
00:18:17,137 --> 00:18:20,737
Speaker 3: about USC is that, again you have this hyper competitive

371
00:18:20,817 --> 00:18:26,457
Speaker 3: environment around the University of Southern California, which is like

372
00:18:26,617 --> 00:18:29,577
Speaker 3: UCLA now has an acceptance rate of literally like eight

373
00:18:29,697 --> 00:18:33,017
Speaker 3: or seven percent, which you know, when I was going

374
00:18:33,057 --> 00:18:35,177
Speaker 3: to school, those were like unheard of numbers that was

375
00:18:35,217 --> 00:18:38,857
Speaker 3: like Caltech numbers like eight percent. But when I was

376
00:18:39,657 --> 00:18:42,697
Speaker 3: but when I was applying, USC had like forty percent acceptance,

377
00:18:43,177 --> 00:18:46,257
Speaker 3: like UCLA. These were not super competitive schools to get

378
00:18:46,297 --> 00:18:47,777
Speaker 3: into these schools.

379
00:18:47,817 --> 00:18:50,777
Speaker 2: What I've had to tell to all the my dad's generation,

380
00:18:50,897 --> 00:18:53,297
Speaker 2: my dad was a Wall Street guy. Uh, my dad's

381
00:18:53,297 --> 00:18:56,137
Speaker 2: generation of finance bros. Because they're just like, oh, like

382
00:18:56,377 --> 00:18:57,857
Speaker 2: when I came out, you know, my dad went to

383
00:18:57,857 --> 00:18:59,737
Speaker 2: Harvard Busins School. He's like, when I came out of school,

384
00:18:59,737 --> 00:19:01,737
Speaker 2: I had offers for every bank on the street, and

385
00:19:01,817 --> 00:19:04,697
Speaker 2: like we were having two Martini lunchers and like everything

386
00:19:04,777 --> 00:19:08,817
Speaker 2: was great because you weren't competing against Mumbai and Shanghai.

387
00:19:08,937 --> 00:19:11,217
Speaker 2: My man, Like I said, different world out there.

388
00:19:11,257 --> 00:19:14,417
Speaker 1: Now, that's right. We're we're made to compete.

389
00:19:14,457 --> 00:19:19,017
Speaker 3: Our kids are made to compete with kids from other countries.

390
00:19:19,217 --> 00:19:21,497
Speaker 3: Like before they've even got out of high school, they're

391
00:19:21,537 --> 00:19:24,817
Speaker 3: competing with the children of the ritually, yes, in India

392
00:19:24,817 --> 00:19:26,377
Speaker 3: and China and all around the world. And then they're

393
00:19:26,377 --> 00:19:30,097
Speaker 3: competing with those kids again for jobs and those kids

394
00:19:30,097 --> 00:19:30,937
Speaker 3: throughout their lives.

395
00:19:31,457 --> 00:19:37,337
Speaker 2: And diversity system is is it's a national resource. And

396
00:19:37,577 --> 00:19:40,217
Speaker 2: you'll notice that with very few exceptions, like yeah, Oxford.

397
00:19:40,417 --> 00:19:41,777
Speaker 2: You know, some people if they want to be like

398
00:19:42,177 --> 00:19:44,497
Speaker 2: really kind of euro fancy, you'll be like I'm going

399
00:19:44,497 --> 00:19:46,057
Speaker 2: through like Seance po or whatever.

400
00:19:46,177 --> 00:19:50,057
Speaker 4: Right, they'll go. Very few Americans go to overseas universities.

401
00:19:50,097 --> 00:19:51,697
Speaker 4: I mean it's a it's like a less than one

402
00:19:51,737 --> 00:19:53,457
Speaker 4: percent number. People just don't do this.

403
00:19:54,177 --> 00:19:56,697
Speaker 2: But yet in our country, it's the biggest countries in

404
00:19:56,737 --> 00:19:59,137
Speaker 2: the world, and countries from all over the world are

405
00:19:59,217 --> 00:20:01,537
Speaker 2: just I'm so glad Trump is on this, and i

406
00:20:01,577 --> 00:20:03,017
Speaker 2: think it's a big deal. I don't think it's a

407
00:20:03,017 --> 00:20:05,737
Speaker 2: small thing. I think it goes to US competitiveness and

408
00:20:05,737 --> 00:20:07,657
Speaker 2: everything else. Kind of just one more thought for you.

409
00:20:07,977 --> 00:20:11,057
Speaker 2: Did you see that the Harvard is the school professor

410
00:20:11,097 --> 00:20:15,417
Speaker 2: who was paid a million dollars a year was an

411
00:20:15,457 --> 00:20:20,177
Speaker 2: expert in honesty and was fired by Harvard for dishonesty.

412
00:20:20,257 --> 00:20:21,097
Speaker 4: That just happened.

413
00:20:22,577 --> 00:20:23,337
Speaker 1: That's so perfect.

414
00:20:24,697 --> 00:20:26,257
Speaker 4: It's like my favorite Harvard story ever.

415
00:20:26,297 --> 00:20:31,497
Speaker 2: I'm like, this overpaid phony whose expertise is dishonesty or

416
00:20:31,497 --> 00:20:35,137
Speaker 2: honesty or whatever, and she's fired for faking results in

417
00:20:35,177 --> 00:20:38,537
Speaker 2: the studies that prove her expertise. And this is this

418
00:20:38,577 --> 00:20:41,977
Speaker 2: is all Claudine Gay who was the former Harvard president.

419
00:20:43,137 --> 00:20:46,257
Speaker 2: This person she's the president of Harvard, you know.

420
00:20:46,337 --> 00:20:48,857
Speaker 3: I mean she's yeah, she was fired, but she wasn't

421
00:20:48,857 --> 00:20:50,937
Speaker 3: actually fired. She was like just he just switched John

422
00:20:51,457 --> 00:20:53,097
Speaker 3: get close to a million a year.

423
00:20:53,257 --> 00:20:54,017
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.

424
00:20:54,017 --> 00:20:56,537
Speaker 2: They basically in the CIA, we call it getting sent

425
00:20:56,577 --> 00:20:58,257
Speaker 2: to the archives, Like they don't want to fire you,

426
00:20:58,257 --> 00:21:00,177
Speaker 2: but they send you somewhere where you can't do any damage,

427
00:21:00,177 --> 00:21:01,617
Speaker 2: you know, and you keep getting your right back.

428
00:21:02,297 --> 00:21:03,537
Speaker 4: She got sent to the archives.

429
00:21:03,977 --> 00:21:05,817
Speaker 1: Yes, so Harvard's off the list, you know.

430
00:21:05,937 --> 00:21:09,737
Speaker 4: Yeah, Harvard's off the list. PEG. Great to have you.
