That's l I d I A N 5 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 2: e w s. 6 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: Oh. 7 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: You know, so much of the year is come into 8 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 2: a close right, and what did we learn that we 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: were right all along? 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 3: Right? 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 2: And the truth is funny, right, No matter how much 12 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 2: you try to to suppress it and hide it, it 13 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: always has a way of coming out. You know, the light. 14 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 2: All you need is a speck of light to make 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: the darkness go away. 16 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 3: Right. 17 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 2: And that that's what I feel is happening with the 18 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: world today, that things that were wrong are finally going right. 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: People are waking up and saying, you know what, these 20 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: progressive I call them regressive policies are not wor working anymore, 21 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: this whole veil. Oh, we have too many black and 22 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 2: brown people, and well, instead of just letting them out, 23 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 2: why not invest in their communities, specifically their education. Right, 24 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: education is the greatest equalizer. I bring it back to 25 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: here in New York City. I'm from the Bronx, born 26 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: and raised. Now I live in Westchester County, which is 27 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: a nice suburb outside of New York City. I'm about 28 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: twenty miles away from Midsam Manhattan. And you know, it's 29 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 2: amazing to me because I went to Catholic school all 30 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: my life. Thank God for my parents that they invested 31 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 2: in my education. But these kids that go to public school, 32 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 2: their parents maybe they can't afford it, maybe they don't 33 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 2: have two parents, maybe it's just one mom and she's 34 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: not home all the time. They don't have after school programs, 35 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: they don't they don't have sports. I say there should 36 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: be sports. And sports isn't just about having the next 37 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: NBA star, NFL whatever. This is about keeping kids busy. 38 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 2: And that's what's happening. You're seeing in Chicago, the number 39 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: of children and teenagers that are carjacking people in Chicago. 40 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: It's astounding Washington, DC that it's such an epidemic. What's 41 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 2: happening with young people. They're lost, It's a staggering statistic. 42 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 2: The number of kids that can't even write a coherent 43 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 2: sentence when they graduate eighth grade, they're graduating high school, 44 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: they barely have a third grade, fourth grade reading level. 45 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 2: This is what's going on in our country. And instead 46 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: of saying you know what, these kids need help. The 47 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: way we can help them is by investing in their education, 48 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 2: not just throwing money at it. We need real teachers 49 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 2: that need to be held accountable, because I think that's 50 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: also another issue. Teachers aren't held accountable. They don't care. 51 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: They're over work, they're tired. You have thirty kids to 52 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: one teacher. They're getting burned out. Class sizes need to 53 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 2: be smaller. You need teachers that care. And if the 54 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: teachers they pay them more, pay the more because you 55 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 2: are investing in our future. If we had a better 56 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 2: education system in this country, we would have less people 57 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 2: addicted to drugs, less people in prison. There's such a 58 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 2: trickle down effect, a domino effect, and it all in 59 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 2: my that's what I think. It all starts with the 60 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 2: with education. It is the Martin Luther King Junior. It's 61 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: the greatest equalizer. And yet there is no investment in 62 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: our young people. It's just oh, you're feelings, Oh you 63 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 2: feel bad, or let's talk about your feelings. Oh take this, 64 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 2: Oh take this pill. How many kids are now? Oh 65 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: adhd ad d put this take this pill, take that pill. 66 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: Oh my kid is antisocial, my kid is transgender. It's 67 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: it's out of control. It's out of control what is 68 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: going on in our country. And there's a lot of sick, 69 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: sick people out there. You'll listen to one of those 70 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 2: sick individuals. I'm gonna play for you. Clip number fifteen. 71 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: This is a grown man complaining that he was misgendered. 72 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: He dressed up as a woman, but he says he's 73 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: now a woman because mensa illness is real, folks. Clip 74 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: number fifteen. 75 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 4: Our server said yes, sir when I was asking some questions, 76 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 4: and I said, oh no, no, no, I'm actually not 77 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 4: a sir. And instead of apologizing or I don't know 78 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 4: what else you would do other than apologize, they just 79 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 4: walked away, did not acknowledge what I said, just walked away. 80 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 4: We saw the server like whispering to a manager, and 81 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 4: a few minutes later the manager came over in a 82 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 4: really big smile, not acknowledging at all that the misgender 83 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 4: had happened. And I say, hey, look the last person 84 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 4: they misgendered me and that really hurt. And they just 85 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 4: walked away, and the manager said, oh, well, some people 86 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 4: just aren't as progressive as you. And then they gave 87 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 4: us a nice little chocolate that suggested they wanted our 88 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 4: money but didn't want to say sorry, so we left 89 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 4: and got a full refund. It's one thing to get 90 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: misgendered and then get an apology, but it's another thing 91 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 4: to get misgendered and then be told that it's okay 92 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 4: not to worry about it. 93 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 3: And here's a chocolate. 94 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: Do you hear the bass in his voice? And that's 95 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 2: not a man. That's not a man, right there. You're 96 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 2: a you're a man. You're a man. You're a man. 97 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: You're a man. End of story. Why did they give 98 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 2: his money back? Why did they even give him a chocolate? 99 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: Get out of here, you crazy person. That's that's what 100 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: needs to be said to these people. We need to stop, 101 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 2: you know, like like engaging in the delusion. That's why 102 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: words matter. That you notice that they they I think 103 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: it will start it with even abortion, right that's a 104 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 2: murderer of the unborn child, but they like to use 105 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: the medical term for it, and that's why there's all 106 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: this confusion about it. When a woman has a spontaneous abortion, 107 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: which is a miscarriage, so they use the medical term 108 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 2: for it. Abortion. No, it's the murder of a of 109 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: a child, Okay, I'm sorry, that's that's the fact. Oh 110 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: it's transgender. No, it's it's your mentally ill. You have 111 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: body dysmorphic disorder, like Michael Jackson. You remember Michael Jackson. 112 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: He had so many those jobs because he kept saying 113 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: that his nose was still too big, still too big, 114 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: still too big, to the point where he had a 115 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,799 Speaker 2: hole in the middle of his face and it fell off. 116 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: His nose fell off because it became so small. And 117 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 2: that those doc I guarantee, the doctors that mutilated Michael 118 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 2: Jackson and Jocelyn Weinstein and all these other plastic surgery freaks, 119 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to say they are they these are the 120 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: same people that are doing this to our kids. So 121 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 2: for people out there to say, well, the doctor told 122 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: me that if I didn't do X, Y and Z 123 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 2: with my child, if I didn't do this, if I 124 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: didn't get the counseling, if I what did they know? Really, 125 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 2: what do they know? You know your child better than 126 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 2: anyone else, than anyone else. But yet the Democrats, they 127 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 2: want to shove this narrative down our throat. That were 128 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 2: the bad guys. We're the bad guys because we want 129 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 2: to discipline our children we want the kids to go 130 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 2: to school. They should be held accountable. There should be 131 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: no phones in schools, no social media, none of this garbage. 132 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: And then we're wondering. Everybody's like, oh, well, oh, why 133 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: are they not? Were we are? They're upset with vivek 134 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: Ramswami saying about mediocrity. I don't know, I where's the lie? 135 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 2: There is mediocrity. We accept what we praise kids for mediocrity. Oh, 136 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: we give everybody a trophy. No, it should be the 137 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: best person to get the trophy. My daughter, she's only seven. 138 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: She does taekwonda. They had this like obstacle course thing 139 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: and she was fantastic at it. She like I couldn't 140 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: believe what she was doing. And they gave out trophies. 141 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: But then all the kids got trophies and I was like, no, 142 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 2: Julia should have just only gotten the trophy because she 143 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: had the fastest time. Why are we doing this? And 144 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: so I even told her afterwards, I said, you know, 145 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: the next time you don't win, it's okay. And because 146 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 2: she wants to win all the time, she's like obsessed 147 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: with winning. I get it. I'm very competitive too, but 148 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: I said it's okay to lose because there can only 149 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 2: be one winner. And honey, you won that race. Where 150 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 2: what where is that that instinctual drive that we we 151 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: instill in our kids that you should want to be 152 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: the best you sho should want to be a winner. 153 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: And it's okay to lose. Sometimes that means you got 154 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 2: to try harder the next time. And it's okay to 155 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 2: be sad. Sometimes it's okay not to get what you want. 156 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 2: And you need to study hard because in order to 157 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,119 Speaker 2: get where you want to go, you need to work 158 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 2: at it. My parents, they are for They're from Montenegro, 159 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: a former Yugoslavia, ethnic Albeedians. They fled a communist regime. 160 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 2: My mom said to me it was either come here 161 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: to America. They had nothing, absolutely nothing, and they did 162 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 2: very well for themselves. It was either come here to 163 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 2: America or we stay there and starve.

I'm Lydia soarran 184 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: I at Lydia News l I d I A any 185 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: w S. Unfortunately, we have a CNN on the screen 186 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: here and the last like literally for over an hour now, 187 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: they've just been talking about Jimmy Carter and they've got 188 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 2: they've got like one corpse after another talking about how 189 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,479 Speaker 2: great he is talking about this state funeral, Joe Biden's 190 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 2: going to be given the eulogy. Blah blah. It's just 191 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 2: they're so boring, they're so full of themselves, they're so 192 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 2: it's just gross. It really really is. It really is, uh, 193 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: just astounding to me. The other, of course, the other 194 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 2: big story that everybody's talking about is h one B visas. 195 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 2: I touched upon it a little earlier. Listen our visa program. 196 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: It's there's corruption. It needs to be uh, it needs 197 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: to be reformed head to toe. I mean, this is 198 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 2: it's ridiculous, it really is. And you have a lot 199 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 2: of Americans. I have a friend of mine who's been 200 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: looking for a job for he has a job already, 201 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 2: thank god, older guy. And he's telling me he's looking 202 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: for a job all the time, and he applies online 203 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 2: to LinkedIn all the time, every job and he gets 204 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: no response, he gets no respect. And and so I 205 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: do think that the job market, I don't know what's 206 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: going on. And then the fact that they're importing foreigners 207 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 2: to take American jobs, like listen, I want the best, 208 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 2: I do. I do want the best and brightest. Like 209 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 2: if I'm getting a surgery, I don't want, you know, 210 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: Britney Smith or whatever. I don't you know, I don't 211 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 2: want her because she was a woman and that's why 212 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 2: she she went to medical school. I don't want her 213 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 2: operating on me versus a guy whoever they bring or 214 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: a woman whatever they brought them in because they're brilliant. 215 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: I want the best person for the job, period, point 216 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 2: blank period. And if people want to come here on 217 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 2: visas and they want and they apply for those jobs 218 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 2: and they're brilliant, they should get it. And that that 219 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 2: is why we've gotten so far off about what's happening 220 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 2: in our country. This this mediocrity that is that's prevalent everywhere. 221 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: I have a friend he was trying to become a 222 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 2: cop and he did really well on the exam and 223 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 2: he didn't He didn't get in. And he was told 224 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: by a friend of his that he said, well, listen, 225 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: we had a quota. We had to have more minorities, 226 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: and because you're white, you got put at the back 227 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 2: of the line. And then you have people. There's that 228 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 2: famous story of a guy who's Indian and his grades 229 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 2: weren't great. He was a C student. So he was 230 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: a dark skinned Indian from India and he decided to 231 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: pretend to be black, and he shaved his head, and 232 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 2: he changed the way he dressed, and he got into 233 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 2: all these medical schools. That is. Think about how messed 234 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 2: up our system is right now. This has been going 235 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 2: on for a very long time and it needs to stop. 236 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 2: And all of these schools that are participating in this 237 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: mentality of oh, we're not going to allow you know, 238 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: Asian people in because they do well in the test, 239 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: or this girl in or this guy because they're white. 240 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: We need diversity. Yes, of course, diversity is fantastic, but 241 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, the best person for 242 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 2: the school, for the position, whatever it may be, should 243 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: get the job. That's it. Stop with this diversity, equity 244 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 2: and inclusion garbage. It's a lie. It hurts everybody. It 245 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,599 Speaker 2: hurts the system, It hurts medical systems, it hurts the 246 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 2: education system. And get you know what, it also hurts 247 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: that person that is getting the leg up because of 248 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 2: whatever is between their legs or there is or what's 249 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: lacking between their legs and what color skin, what nationality 250 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 2: they are, because then people think, oh, this person is 251 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 2: only a doctor because she's black or he's black or 252 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 2: he's this, or he's Hispanic, this or that. That's what happens. 253 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 2: So we got to get rid of all of that. 254 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 2: And I've been saying this before. Anybody that any company, 255 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 2: any university, any hospital that participates in any of this 256 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: DEI stuff. Stop asking. How about we don't ask people 257 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 2: what their gender is? How about we stop, how about 258 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 2: we stop asking what their nationality is? We need to 259 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 2: stop with all of that. Who cares. We're human beings, right, 260 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 2: That's it. That's all that should matter. And let the 261 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 2: best person get the job. Let the best person get 262 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 2: the spot in the school, in the medical school, whatever. 263 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 2: That's it, end of story. We need to get back 264 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 2: to a merit base system. We need to stop. 265 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 3: And then. 266 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 2: The way the Democrats are obsessed with trying to make 267 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 2: everything equal, they're actually making things worse. That's what I 268 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: think is happening. I think they're making things worse. I 269 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: think they're they're causing resentment. I think that's what's happening. 270 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: And our kids are are I was telling my friend's daughter, 271 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 2: and she she was just like, what should I do. 272 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 2: I'm being told I'm might not I get into this 273 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: school or that school. And I said she's brilliant. She's like, yeah, 274 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 2: but they have they want certain this enough. Like I 275 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 2: didn't speak English until I was five years old, and 276 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 2: yet I'm considered white. I am on my skin, you know, 277 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 2: I'm Caucasian. I'm white. And yet somebody that's been here 278 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 2: for generations because they have brown skin, they were they're 279 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: getting a scholarship or they're getting something ahead of me. 280 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I was a smart kid, so I did, 281 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: Thank god, I mean whatever, I don't know what happened now, 282 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 2: I'm joking, but I did. I got a full scholarship 283 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 2: to college and all that and everything. But I went 284 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: to a local school because I got a free ride. 285 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 2: And I did get into some of the big schools. 286 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: But I didn't. I didn't. I would have had to 287 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 2: pay a fortune. Back then. It was like forty fifty 288 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 2: thousand dollars for like Columbia. I remember I got into Columbia. 289 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 2: I wanted to get to go to Columbia. It's like 290 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 2: forty thousand dollars. I said, I can't do that to 291 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 2: my parents, I can't do that to myself. So I 292 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: went to Iona College, which is a new Rochelle. They 293 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 2: gave me a free ride and a story that's and 294 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 2: that's what I ended up doing. So it's unfortunate, but 295 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 2: maybe I think back to it, I said, well, maybe 296 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 2: if I was I was half this, or maybe if 297 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: I was that, maybe I would have gotten money from Colombia. 298 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: Because now I look back and I see what's happening. 299 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 2: At the time, when you're a kid, you just get 300 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 2: disappointed when you don't get the grant that you wanted, 301 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 2: the skyship, where you don't get into the school that 302 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,239 Speaker 2: you thought you would get into, and you blame yourself. 303 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 2: But nine times out of ten, we are learning that 304 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 2: there is a bigger system at play and it's corrupt. 305 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 2: I'm Lydia saran I at Lydia News l I d 306 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 2: I a ny W S.

I'm in the studio 323 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 2: and I'm being tortured as we speak, because CNN still 324 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: has one old fart after the other talking about Jimmy Carter, 325 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: and it's just like, unreally, he was like what I know, 326 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 2: there was like no malevolence behind maybe I'm hoping behind 327 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 2: his failures as a president. But why are we eulogizing 328 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 2: and honoring this guy that was like he was not 329 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 2: a good president. And then they're having Joe Biden delivered 330 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 2: the eulogy. This guy who's a he's a liar, he's 331 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 2: probably a criminal. I mean, those archive photos just came 332 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 2: out quietly right before Christmas with him posing he's not posing, 333 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: but he's with he knew the pictures were being taken. 334 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 2: Jijing Pang and all these Chinese officials. Oh, I know 335 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 2: nothing about my son's business sealings, nothing nothing, KJP nothing nothing. 336 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: Oh you're a liar this or that. And now there's 337 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 2: hacking here. Well, this person is hacked by China. Then 338 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: this is I mean again, the Treasury departments now hacked 339 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: by China. It's because Joe Biden is compromised. This whole 340 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 2: regime is compromise. With me now senior contributor at the Federalist. 341 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: He's also the editor at large at Real Clear Investigations. 342 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 2: Benjamin Winegarten. Ben, thanks so much for joining us. 343 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 3: Thank for had meybody. It's a pleasure. 344 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 2: Ben. What went through your mind when those when those 345 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: photos came out, like you must you must have like 346 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 2: laughed to yourself, like I really now, now they're going 347 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 2: to the National Archives is releasing these photos of Joe Biden, 348 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 2: and clearly he has some unholy alliance with China. 349 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 3: Well, the first thing that came to mind was the 350 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 3: National Archives is another weaponized and think about this, You 351 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 3: would think this would be an innocuous agency, National Archives 352 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 3: and yet they were the key instigator that coordinated with 353 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 3: the Joe Biden Justice Department in the quote unquote documents 354 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 3: case against Donald Trump that collapsed, and then so at 355 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: the same time they used documents as a pretext to 356 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: raid Maar a Lago and create a criminal case out 357 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 3: of nothing against Donald Trump. At the very same time 358 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 3: they are concealing, they are covering up critical information which 359 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 3: shows the then Vice president meeting with all the business 360 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 3: partners and senior ranking members of the Chinese Communist Party 361 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 3: while his son is getting sweetheart business deals in strategically 362 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 3: significant sectors of the economy in China that no other 363 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,479 Speaker 3: American is getting. And of course he lied about it 364 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 3: obviouscated about it over and over again while he was president. 365 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 3: But it goes back way before that. The questions were 366 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 3: apparent from the start, which was was this, What did 367 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 3: Joe Biden know, When did he know it? And how 368 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 3: involved was he in it when it comes to the 369 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 3: family business of selling out America to our worst adversaries, 370 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 3: monetizing his office, his political power, his family name from 371 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 3: all of these threats, frankly to America and the media 372 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 3: never wanted to investigate it. We don't know if God forbid, 373 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 3: our national security apparatus actually looked into it, or maybe 374 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 3: they did, and maybe they had all this leverage on 375 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 3: Joe Biden in the form of knowing that his family 376 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 3: was involved with all these dubious transactions with adversaries while 377 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 3: he was making policy in these very places around the world. 378 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 3: But to your point, the big thirty thousand foot takeaway 379 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 3: is how compromised has he been for the entirety of 380 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 3: his presidency? What leverage did our adversaries have over us? 381 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 3: And to what extent did it impact the policies and 382 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 3: imperil Americans? And just to give one example of the 383 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 3: kinds of disastrous policies where you have to say, to 384 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,959 Speaker 3: what extent did his family dealings have any nexus to it? 385 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 3: This administration ended the Dog China initiative, which targeted basically 386 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 3: and sought to probe under the Trump administration, all of 387 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 3: the ways that China compromised our academic centers, our research 388 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 3: centers are think tanks. This administration ended it. That was 389 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 3: a counter intelligence initiative at the DOJ to take on 390 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 3: the Chinese Communist Party, and he ended it with a penstroke. 391 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 3: How many other policies don't we know about that have 392 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 3: privileged our enemies who his family did business with while he. 393 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 2: Was vice president, you know, And these are what we 394 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: know about. So God only knows how many more, like 395 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 2: you're saying, other dubious transactions or deals that have been made. 396 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: And the fact that they came out finally to tell 397 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 2: us about this cyber attack Salts Typhoon on Friday and 398 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 2: then today the Treasury Department. God only knows how many 399 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 2: more cyber attacks. I think the federal government, you would 400 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: know better than me. I think we learn from the 401 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 2: federal government about one percent of what is really happening. 402 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 2: And that's why the role of the media is so 403 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 2: important in doing that invest in doing their investigations. The 404 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden laptop. I know Rudy Giuliani. He had the 405 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 2: laptop with him. He would bring it to work at 406 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 2: the studio. We were looking through it. He tried to 407 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 2: give it numerous times. He went to Delawre, He went 408 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 2: to Delaware with Bernie Carrick. They tried to and nobody 409 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 2: would look at it. And then if you mentioned it 410 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 2: on any platform media platform, you got kicked off of it, 411 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 2: you were banned. You were centered people. Some people are 412 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 2: still banned from from Twitter now X do you think 413 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 2: there will be any reckoning for the media. I mean, 414 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: we're seeing ratings, you know, free for all, you know, 415 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 2: freefall with CNN and MSDNC. But is there ever going 416 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 2: to be real accountability for the so called networks that 417 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 2: were complicit in this in this cover up of the 418 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 2: Biden regime. 419 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, besides the declining ratings of the legacy media, and 420 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 3: by the way, I think this is one of the 421 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 3: reasons why they hate conservative and independent media because, on 422 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 3: the merits, independent and conservative media actually look at things 423 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 3: with a skeptical eye, and we hit stories that everyone 424 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 3: else either misses or intentionally covers up. I think they 425 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 3: believe it's critical to their business model to continue covering 426 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 3: for our ruling class, for our ruling elites. We have 427 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 3: to stop thinking of the corporate and legacy media entities 428 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 3: as just biased, sort of left wing mouthpieces. It's worse 429 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 3: than that. They are the mouthpieces for our ruling regime. 430 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 3: They don't investigate it and probe it and try to 431 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 3: bring us the truth and actually expose the powerful and 432 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 3: hold them to account. They actually protect the ruling elites. 433 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 3: They are captured entities. Of our deep state, our administrative state, 434 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 3: and why because the deep state or administrative state will 435 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 3: give them scoops, it'll give them access, it will protect 436 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 3: their business models. There are all sorts of ways in 437 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 3: which essentially the media itself has been uppermise and the 438 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 3: relationships are so incestuous. I mean, how many ex FBI 439 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 3: and DOJ officials Intelligence community officials did you have going 440 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 3: on TV as contributors every single day during Trump one 441 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 3: talking about how he's compromised by Vladimir Putin. So they 442 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 3: work together, hands in hand, and essentially they run information 443 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 3: operations on the American people, including of course that the 444 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 3: Hunter Biden lapstop story has all all marks of Russian disinformation. 445 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 3: I mean, think about how they manufacture that. You get 446 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 3: four dozen ex Intelligence community officials to sign off on 447 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 3: a letter, it gets fed to Politico, that spread through 448 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 3: the media. The social media companies censor it because the 449 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 3: National Security apparatus has been telling them you better be 450 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 3: on the lookout for a planted hack and leak sort 451 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 3: of story, just like the one that came out on 452 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 3: the eve of the election. So it's sinister and it's incestuous. 453 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: The best thing we can see that we can say 454 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 3: today is that the American people, at least fifty percent 455 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 3: plus one have seen through it. The credibility of corporate 456 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 3: and legacy media is shot. There's almost no one with 457 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 3: disfavorability ratings like theirs are. However, it's a very powerful 458 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 3: force when you work hand in glove with your government. 459 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 3: That's not what the American system is supposed to be. 460 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 3: That's not what the First Amendment here is supposed to protect. 461 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 3: But sadly that's where our media is gone. And that 462 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 3: makes it all the more important that we do everything 463 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 3: possible to dismantle this censorship industrial complex so that there 464 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 3: can be independent and conservative media to actually hold the 465 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 3: power photo account and expose truth to the American people. 466 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 2: Again, you are listening to Benjamin weingar In, a senior 467 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 2: contributor at The Federalist.

There are repercussions to what he's done. 472 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 2: The largest day of clemency fifteen hundred people he gave 473 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 2: them clemency and then thirty seven of forty guys that 474 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 2: were on death row, he commuted their sentences to life 475 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 2: in prison.

How is it possible that Joe Biden is 515 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: still allowed to make or pretending it's Joe Biden. It's 516 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 2: still allowed to make these big decisions like the clemency 517 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 2: and commuting of these killers and child murderers. I mean, 518 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 2: you name, I mean, these are the worst of the worst. 519 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 2: How is he still allowed to do this when he 520 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 2: can't even be trusted to go to get ice cream 521 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 2: by himself. 522 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 3: Well, first, it's a pleasure to be with you and 523 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 3: thank you for having me. And I think we're ending 524 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 3: this presidency the same way, frankly, that Joe Biden started 525 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 3: his campaign, if you can even call it a campaign 526 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 3: for the presidency, which is that he was never in command. 527 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 3: He was always a figurehead at best. And really, what 528 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 3: we've been witnessing is the third term of Barack Obama, 529 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 3: a shadow president who is senior most personnel parachuted into 530 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 3: the most senior positions under Joe Biden. And it's a 531 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 3: scary thing to consider that he hasn't really been the 532 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 3: commander in chief the entire time. I mean, maybe you 533 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 3: could say we're in better hands, but it's even worse, 534 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 3: potentially than incompetence or decline, is that we actually have 535 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,959 Speaker 3: progressive ideologues in power. And that's how you explain how 536 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 3: you've had such an erosion of our prosperity, of the 537 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 3: rule of law at home, why there's been calamities abroad 538 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 3: with all of our worst adversaries gaining and with this 539 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 3: administration helping those adversaries, and then ending with these commutations 540 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 3: and pardons where you're revictimizing the families and you're essentially 541 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 3: rewarding the most heinous criminals for the most despicable of acts, 542 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,959 Speaker 3: by the way, including Chinese nationals. To go back to 543 00:29:55,960 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 3: our last segment, I mean his party. The only way 544 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 3: you can explain it is this is progressive ideology. This 545 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 3: is the natural end of it, which is that actually 546 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,959 Speaker 3: the worst criminals are treated as the victims, and it's 547 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 3: as if it's society's fault. And the way that we 548 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 3: create social justice is to just decriminalize the worst of 549 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 3: the acts. It's despicable, it's heinous, it makes us less safe, 550 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 3: it incentivizes crime, and frankly, it's a blight on our 551 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 3: country that you have these people not facing justice, those 552 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 3: who are on death wrote not facing death for the 553 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 3: horrific acts. And my heart goes out to the families. 554 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 3: I can't even begin to imagine how devastating it would 555 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 3: be to have the people engaged in these heinous acts 556 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 3: against your family somehow let off the hook. It's just 557 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 3: disgraceful and despicable. 558 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 2: It really is. Benjamin Weingarten, thank you so much for 559 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: joining us, and I hope you and your family have 560 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: a happy. 561 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,239 Speaker 4: New Year, Happy New Year. 562 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 3: Thank you too. 563 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 2: Thank you so as we come to an end, and 564 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: a close thank you again for having me fill in. 565 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: It's been an honor. Love Jesse Kelly everything that he dies. 566 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 2: He's a brilliant guy, hard working guy, family guy. And 567 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 2: what we have learned throughout this these past four years 568 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 2: is to question everything. That's what you need to do. 569 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: Question everything. Don't let anybody gaslight you, don't don't let 570 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 2: anybody bully you into thinking some you know it's here 571 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 2: in New York City, deep blue New York City. You 572 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 2: can't even you couldn't wear now you can. But it 573 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: was it was crazy you walk down the street with 574 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 2: a Maga hat. It was like it reminded me back 575 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 2: of the days when during COVID the pandemic and people 576 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,239 Speaker 2: were wearing If I didn't wear a mask while I 577 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 2: was walking down the street, I would get dirty. Looks 578 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 2: because they were so delusional, they were so brainwashed into 579 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 2: thinking that this virus could somehow fly through the air 580 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 2: across the street and infect people. I almost I almost 581 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 2: got arrested because I allowed my daughter to play on 582 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: a swim and a seesaw in my neighborhood in Westchester County, 583 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 2: and this person saw me. It was they roped it off. 584 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 2: Do you remember this. They roped off the playgrounds, They 585 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 2: didn't let the kids play outside. That's the insanity that 586 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 2: was going on. And a cop showed up and threatened 587 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 2: to arrest me because I allowed my daughter to go 588 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 2: on the swing. I mean, and it reminds me of 589 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: what was happening also during this term. No, the crime 590 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 2: isn't down, No we need the illegal invasion isn't as 591 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 2: bad as you think it is, and all these other 592 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 2: The economy is great, Bidenomics, it's thriving well. 593 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: No more. 594 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 2: We're not gonna be lied to anymore. The truth is 595 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 2: the truth, no matter you can slice it any way 596 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 2: you want it. And it's a beautiful thing, the beautiful thing. 597 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 2: I read the truth, no matter how again, no matter 598 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 2: how hard you try to shove it down, you can't. 599 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: You can't. The truth is what it is, and that's 600 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 2: why President Trump coming back into office where he belongs, 601 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 2: where he he should have been four years ago. But 602 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 2: we know it happened there. But thank God, the American people, 603 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 2: half of this country. It woke up.
