1 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 1: A lot of not awesome things happened since we last 2 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: spoke last week over the weekend, and usually while we 3 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: try to be snarky and somewhat humorous, on this show, 4 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about all the serious things. The 5 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: horrible shooting that happened in Australia, the FBI foiling a 6 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: New Year's Eve attack, and how France is handling those 7 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: very same things in their country in the exact wrong way. 8 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: All that more coming up on this episode of Turning 9 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: Point Tonight.

Horrible shooting that happened in Australia, where 46 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: guns are banned by the way they're port Arthur shooting 47 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: caused the government there to say he all right, we're 48 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: taking away all the guns and lo and behold, still 49 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: bad things happen. It's almost like it's not a gun problem, 50 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: it's a people problem. But just to recap briefly, there's 51 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: Honka celebration on the beach. Hanukkah by the Sea twenty 52 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: twenty five took place on Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach. The 53 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: event marked the first day of Hanukkah, where shots were fired, 54 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: sending hundreds of people fleeing. And at this point in time, 55 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: if the number has gone up, pray to God that 56 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't. But it's about fifteen people, sorry not about 57 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: fifteen people have been killed in that attack, and God 58 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: willing that number won't increase by the time this, you're 59 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: actually watching this. The officials in Australia officially designated it 60 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: a terrorist attack and it was designed targeted at the 61 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 1: Jewish community. They're celebrating again the first day of Hanukkah. 62 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: It is a tragic situation. Victims ranged from ten to 63 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: eighty seven years old. In addition to the fatalities, at 64 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: least twenty seven others were hospitalized. Twelve of them are 65 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: in critical condition as of this particular moment. And this 66 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: is one of those situations where I mean generally like 67 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: being sarcastic and satirical about this sort of thing, but 68 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: it's difficult when tragic situations happened, because it's kind of 69 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: tough to thread that giving you all behind the Sikhs 70 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: but behind the scenes peak But who are the suspects, well, 71 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: jihadists is what it looks like. Two suspects involves a 72 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: fifty year old father who was killed by police at 73 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: the scene and his twenty four year old son who 74 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: was critically injured and in the hospital as well. Both 75 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: of them. The all of the news outlets because they 76 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 1: love to point this it's not that bad because because 77 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: they were born in Australia, Supposedly naturally born Australian citizens 78 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: which brings up the question of birthright citizenship, which we've 79 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: talked about on the show extensively. Just because you're born 80 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: in a geographical location does not mean that you accept 81 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: and adapt to the ideology of that geographical location. But again, 82 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: birthright citizenship can be a different topic for a different time, 83 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: and again we've already talked about that frequently. But that's 84 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: one of the factors in this that the Lib media 85 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: is saying, Oh no, look at there. They were Australian. Hmmm, 86 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: did they adhere to the customs in the culture of Australia. 87 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. The father had legally, according to this 88 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: news outlet, owned his firearms since twenty fifteen. The son, 89 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: and again I don't want to be over sarcastic and 90 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to ooverlease serious satirize this, but the 91 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: son was previously investigated by law enforcement in Australia and 92 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: in the intelligence community from twenty nineteen twenty twenty, but 93 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: at the time was deemed to not be a threat. 94 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: In other words, a history of oh hey, maybe this 95 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: guy is going to go do something terrible and awful. 96 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: The Prime Minister of Australia called it a a horrible 97 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: act of evil anti Semitism, which of course it is, 98 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: and they are now using this, well, let's not be 99 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: super negative, of they are now calling for more gun 100 00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: control in the already very gun controlled country of Australia. 101 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: There's a lot of different fallouts from this, but the 102 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: main point is that Australia's deadliest shooting was in nineteen 103 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: ninety six, the Port Arthur massacre, when a bunch of 104 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: people were killed and Australia basically said we're taking all 105 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: the guns, and the Australian citizenry said, yeah, that seems okay. 106 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: But of course the argument that we have to continually 107 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: make as Second Amendment advocates is that it's not the guns, 108 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: it's the people. Whether it be mental illness or ideological 109 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: disassimilation with the culture, has it well, you know, you 110 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about, jihadism. Effectively, both of those 111 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: things are factors, and both of those are a people 112 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: problem as opposed to a gun problem. Erica Kirk said 113 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: it best when she was interviewed by The New York 114 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: Times at their book convention. I believe it was like 115 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, saying it is a deeply, deeply, deeply 116 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: human problem and not a tool problem. But of course 117 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: the Australian legislators over there are saying, well, this is 118 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: definitely a problem that needs to require taking more control 119 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: over the guns. Now, there was an act of heroism there. 120 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: You probably have seen the video of another guy who 121 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: disarmed one of the shooters and was injured in the process. 122 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: That was heroic to watch, to say the least. But again, 123 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: a terrible, terrible incident that happened in Australia. Well, how 124 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: does that tie to what's going on here? Well, I 125 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: think there is a global kind of cultural shift with 126 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: this new found acceptance of violence for some reason, most 127 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: specifically on the left pretty clearly. But even in Australia 128 00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: they have this brain rot theory that well, you gotta 129 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: watch out for right wing violence. The Prime Minister himself 130 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: said as much. Watch this has cut seven. The Prime 131 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: Minister of Australia. 132 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 2: The Director General of AISHA has warned about a Rheinhoff threats, 133 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: but it any Semitism, the rise of right wing extremist 134 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: groups as well, and we continue to work closely with 135 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 2: our security agencies. 136 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not sure about that one. Mister Prime Minister, 137 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: it's threats of anti Semitism and threats of right wing extremism, which, 138 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: by the way, we don't necessarily need to get into 139 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: all of the numbers, but there are so many statistics 140 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: out there that the live media use as well that 141 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: the right wing has been more violent than the left wing. 142 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: It's just that the left wing has has bigger ripples 143 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: in the American culture, and therefore it's perceived that the 144 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: left wing is more violent. But really realistically, statistics don't 145 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: actually show that. Well, the statistics show that if you 146 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: actually were to take the statistics accurately, the domestic terrorist 147 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: organization groups that have all pinpointed this is right wing 148 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: has more violence neglect to account for several instances of 149 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: violence unequivocally caused by the left. They just don't factor 150 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: that into the statistics. For example, there's several incidents at 151 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: Young Americans for Freedom YAFF events where there are bomb 152 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: threats and threats of violence, and that wasn't counted in 153 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: the statistics. My personal experience, I was at the University 154 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: of California Davis when a bunch of ANTIFA people broke 155 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: through the police line, made it all the way up 156 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: to the door. I had glass shattered in my face, 157 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 1: which the video we've played before on this show. We 158 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: don't need to show it to you again, but you 159 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: all understand that wasn't counted as left wing violence, and 160 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: pretty much nobody was arrested for anything they did on 161 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: that day. So yeah, I guess if you don't count 162 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: the statistics correctly, then you can come up with an 163 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: inaccurate assessment of what is actually going on. But the 164 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: bottom line here is that overwhelmingly around the globe, the 165 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: political left is more and more and more accepting a 166 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: violence to push their plots case and point what the 167 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 1: FBI dismantled thankfully. In Los Angeles and also New Orleans, 168 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: the FBI and the Justice Department disrupted what they call 169 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: a credible terrorist plot targeting Los Angeles on New Year's Eve. 170 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 1: Cash Betel and pan Bondi, you're out talking about this. 171 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: The federal authorities arrested suspects in Los Angeles and New 172 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: Orleans in connection with an alleged anti government bombing plot. 173 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: In total, four individuals were arrested in Los Angeles, plus 174 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: a fifth suspect in New Orleans believed to be linked 175 00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 1: with the plot. The suspects. Get hold on your seats, folks, say, 176 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: fasten your seat belts on this one. This is gonna 177 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: this is gonna shake you. This is super surprising and shocking. 178 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: The suspect identified themselves as part of a radical offshoot 179 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: of the Turtle Island Liberation Front, a far left extremist group. 180 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: Whoa who could have seen that coming all of the 181 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: times that President Biden came out and said, you know, 182 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 1: one of the biggest threats to the democracy, the American 183 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: experiment is a right wing extremism. None of that was true, 184 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: None of that was ever based in actual fact. What 185 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: we see and what we perceived with our own eyes 186 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: and ears is the constant push from violent leftists trying 187 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 1: to push their ideology or their beliefs on everybody else 188 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: through violence. This shouldn't be super contentious. This is not 189 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: really like a that big of a question. Their stated 190 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: goals included freeing Turtle Island, and if you're not familiar 191 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: with that, that is the indigenous term for all of 192 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: North America. So okay, so this this small little island 193 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: you know, of a continent, that's that's what we need 194 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: to free, which is a ridiculous term but it goes 195 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: against American imperialism and alongside calls for freeing Palestine and 196 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: also freeing a Hawaii and Puerto Rico, which I have 197 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: a lot to say about Hawaii and Puerto Rico, but 198 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: that's this is not necessarily the time or place for that. 199 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Puerto Rico, try try to go go at 200 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 1: it on your own without American subsidies. Same thing for Hawaii, 201 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: given their tourist effort destination. And there's a lot to 202 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: be said there that we're not going to get to 203 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: right now. The group's ideology is pro Palestine, anti government 204 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: and anti law enforcement and anti capitalists. So a bunch 205 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: of socialist Marxist violent leftis extremists were foiled again, thank god. 206 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: The suspects were allegedly planning on using improvised explosive devices 207 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: i eeds, including pipe bombs. They were targeting locations on 208 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: New Year's Eve. The group planned to attack five separate 209 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: sites on New Year's Eve in Los Angeles. Beyond New 210 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: Year's Eve, the group, in their signal chat was also 211 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: discussing attacking immigration and Customs enforcement agents and vehicles in 212 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: early twenty twenty six, so past their pipe bombing destruction 213 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: on New Year's Eve. They were gonna go, Okay, after 214 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: we get through that, we're going to attack ice and 215 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: vehicles and just use again political violence to try to 216 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: curb the culture to a whack a doodle way of thinking. 217 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 1: They were caught again, thank god, on their way out 218 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,719 Speaker 1: to the Mahave Desert. They were purchasing a bunch of 219 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: items in order to make their improvised explosive devices in 220 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 1: Lucerne Valley on December twelfth, so last Friday, the FBI 221 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 1: intervened before functional bombs were able to be assembled. These 222 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: suspects now faced charges including conspiracy and possession of unregistered 223 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: destructive devices. Cash Mattel, for his part, obviously praised the disruption. 224 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: We don't want to see anything like that happen, and 225 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: called it an imminent terrorist threat that undoubtedly saved countless lives. 226 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: Attorney General Pam Bondi described it as preventing massive and 227 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: horrific series of bombings. Yes, again, I think we all 228 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: say thank god that that was foiled. But I think 229 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: the deeper problem here again, to kind of echo what 230 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: Erica said at the New York Times event, this is 231 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: a deeply human problem. We have lost the plot. When 232 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: it comes to living up to the values of Western civilization, 233 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: people have lost their direction and lost the understanding of 234 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: what made the West as great as it is. When 235 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: that happens, when you lose Western values and therefore effectively 236 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: lose God, why would you not go commit political violence? 237 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: Of course, again, that is happening, in my opinion, almost 238 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: entirely on the left side of the political divide. Rather 239 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: than making this segment unbelievably long, there is kind of 240 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: like a culminating conclusion here of what we should do 241 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: in response to that, including how I believe one of 242 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: the targeted groups in these these these attacks continually throughout history, 243 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: responds to violence towards them. But that'll be next segment. 244 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about what's going on in France 245 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: and how they're responding to the threats of violence, and 246 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: it is the exact wrong way to do it. T 247 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: at TPUSA dot com is the email address if you'd 248 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, Praise for 249 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: the FBI for thwarting a new New Year reive potential attacks, 250 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: Sympathy for the victims of the Jewish community in Australia. 251 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: Like I said, We usually try and keep it light here, 252 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: and maybe maybe we'll get back to that tomorrow, but 253 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: there's too many serious things happening around the world that 254 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: are just too important to not dive deeper into the 255 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: with the hope of again keeping the West alive. How 256 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: to save the West is I think our main concern 257 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: at this point. TBT at TPUSA dot com. If you 258 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: have any emails, thoughts, comments, concerns, criticisms of how we're 259 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: discussing this, that's totally fine.

It's a wonderful life, really. I love 273 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: its subtle meaning on the importance that every life has 274 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: and how we shouldn't take a single moment for granted, 275 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: I didn't expect that from you. 276 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: Let's ask Grannie her favorite. 277 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: Granny, Yeah, what's your favorite Christmas movie? That's easy, die Hard. 278 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: That isn't a Christmas movie. 279 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: It sure is. 280 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 3: It's an action movie. 281 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 4: How he's that it's violent, has explosions, and there's terrorists. 282 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: Christmas is just the backdrop for the story. It takes 283 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: place on Christmas Eve at a Christmas party, and the 284 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,479 Speaker 1: theme is about family, redemption and sacrifice, which are common 285 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: among holiday classics. Well I never thought of it that way. 286 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 2: And Christmas is mentioned eighteen times throughout the film. 287 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: Well that's a fun fact. Looks like, we know what 288 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 1: Christmas movie we're watching. 289 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 2: You, Bekaeve Mother. 290 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: Exactly correct. The the principles of Diehard align definitely with 291 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: Christmas and more broadly Western values. Hans Skruber, that communist 292 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 1: terrorist who's thwarted by Bruce willis just and saving Christmas. 293 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: By the way, of course, it's a Christmas movie that 294 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: actually is pretty fitting for what we're going to talk 295 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: about next. I appreciate that that clip there. Diehard is 296 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: one hundred percent of Christmas movie emails TBT atbus a 297 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: dot com if you disagree, I e. You're wrong about that. 298 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: Diehard is one hundred percent of Christmas movie, as it 299 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 1: not only takes place during Christmas but exemplifies several Christians 300 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: and Western values throughout the film. But TBT atbusa dot com, 301 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: for some reason you decide that no, it's not back 302 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: to the more serious stuff. And again, I would love 303 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: to be jokey and humorous about a lot of stuff, 304 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: but it's kind of tough, especially over this last weekend. 305 00:18:55,560 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: Can't not mention the Brown University shooting. Uh at this 306 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: point in time, depending on when you watch this, suspect 307 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: is still I believe at large the shooting there again 308 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: tragic situation. A lot remains unknown on the motives here. 309 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: More specifically, because a young girl named Ella Cook was 310 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: nineteen years old, conservative Christian and the vice president of 311 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: the Republican Club at Brown University was among the two 312 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: that were killed. It remains to be seen how that 313 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: hands out and if she was specifically targeted. If she was, 314 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: nobody wants just to use this for like political points. 315 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,719 Speaker 1: It's a tragedy regardless, but at the same time, if 316 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: it turns out that she specifically was targeted. It just 317 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,439 Speaker 1: reinforces the point that we've been making. The left is 318 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: violent and continues to be violent, and continues to allow 319 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: and accept violence on their ideological side. Where you exactly 320 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,239 Speaker 1: diverge from how you respond to this, I think is 321 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: explicitly happening in Paris. There's obviously a multitude of different 322 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: ways to respond to violence, in political violence and ideological violence, 323 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 1: but how you exactly don't handle it is what is 324 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: happening in Paris. For six decades, sixty years, Paris has 325 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: celebrated New Year's Eve on the champ Alises probably pronouncing 326 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: that wrong. I don't speak French. I'm an American, I 327 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: don't speak French. Last year, this concert drew about a 328 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: million people on the famous avenue. Oh, that's where the 329 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 1: Arctotriumph is. Okay. The traditional celebration features a massive midnight 330 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 1: concert on what many people call the most beautiful avenue 331 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 1: in the world. However, they officially canceled that New Year's concert. 332 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: The live event will now be replaced with a pre 333 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 1: recorded video for viewers to watch at home. Fireworks, I 334 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 1: guess are still going to be blown off at the 335 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: Arc of Triumph, but the officials there are urging people 336 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: to watch on TV instead of actually attend the event 337 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: in person. Paris police pressed the mayor to cancel the concert, 338 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: citing security concerns as an unpredictable crowd movements. In other words, 339 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: there were threats against this event, and instead of saying, Nope, 340 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: we're going to height I don't care if there are 341 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: more police officers, military officers, whoever, need, whoever, whatever it 342 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: takes to make sure this event is safe, we're going 343 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: to continue to go on with it. Instead they said, no, 344 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: we're going to cancel it. We're going to capitulate to 345 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: the terrorist threats that are coming from a lot of 346 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 1: different places and we're just gonna let them win. France's 347 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: interior minister has warned about a very high terror threat 348 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: from groups like al Qaeda and ISIS so far, I 349 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: guess this is the if you call this thwarted, this 350 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: is the sixth terrorist plot that's been thwarted in France, 351 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: which again I don't even know if this is thwarted, 352 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: but we can we can discuss that a little bit 353 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: later on in a little bit more depth. But all 354 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: six of these events were plotted by terrorists between seventeen 355 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: and twenty two years old. The Christmas markets are being 356 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: treated like a high like high risk targets with increased 357 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: presence by police and restricted vehicle access. I think a 358 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: lot of us have seen the memes online which you're 359 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: like trying to convey truth through humor, which I believe 360 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: me totally fully understand. But the blockades for cars on 361 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: all the Christmas markets is like, yeah, the jihattist proof 362 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: vehicle blockers is kind of like the online meme. But 363 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: the bottom line here is that in the face of 364 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: terroristic threats against the livelihoods of people who are simply 365 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: trying to celebrate well the New Year, but again more 366 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: broadly exist in Western civilization, instead of getting as much police, 367 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: military presence, whatever it takes to ensure that the event 368 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: goes smoothly, they say, nah, we're gonna chicken out. And look, 369 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to be too harsh and critical, because 370 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: there are times where things need to be altered. I 371 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: don't even want to say canceled, postponed, moved in a 372 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: different direction because the threat level is too high. But 373 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: on this scale. In Paris, on one of the very 374 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: celebrated traditions on New Year's Eve, that's been going on 375 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: for sixty years. That is something that is too big 376 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: to capitulate on. That is something that is too universally 377 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: known to say, ah, the terrorists win, because that's a 378 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: effectively what it is that France is saying here, we 379 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: think that, well, you know, there's some concern and and 380 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 1: because of that concern, I totally understand the concern for 381 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: human life. But what are you giving up if you 382 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: capitulate two threats like this? What are you giving up 383 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: in terms of the livelihood of the people by allowing 384 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: terroristic threats to cancel an event entirely. We're talking about 385 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: talking about a huge event. And again, I don't care 386 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: what it takes on this particular instance. I don't care 387 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: if there are all of the roofs are littered with people. 388 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 1: I don't care if there there need to be anti 389 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: aircraft presence in the area. You cannot just go, ah, well, 390 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: that's just we're just not gonna do it entirely. That 391 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: is the exact wrong approach to take, because when you 392 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: take that approach, the terrorists without killing anybody. Again, thank god, 393 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: by the way, nobody actually wants any of the violence, 394 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: they effectively win the ideological battle has to be persistence, 395 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: it has to be fortitude in what it is that 396 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: we believe, because if we don't have that in these 397 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: types of events, what do we have And if we 398 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: don't have anything effectively, again, like I've said number of times, 399 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 1: the terrorists win. This is one hundred percent the wrong 400 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: way of going about it. And to tie it in 401 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: to the more broader conversation that was prompted by the horrible, 402 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: horrific attack on the Jewish community in Australia, one of 403 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: the things that I've always admired about the Jewish people 404 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: is their resiliency. I've got plenty of Jewish friends who 405 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: have seen some of the most horrible things happen to 406 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: their community, and you know what they do every single 407 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: time time they come back. They don't allow the threats 408 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: of violence to deter them from doing what they want 409 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: to do. And I think that I think that is 410 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: something unbelievably admirable in the Jewish community. I think, well, 411 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: I have a very good friend who was going back 412 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: and forth between Israel over the last several months a 413 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: couple of years, and one of the things that I 414 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: noticed through watching, you know, the social media posts, there 415 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: is that life has to go on. There has to 416 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: be a continuation of the way of life of any 417 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: Western civilization, and in the face of violence and threats, 418 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: the best way to deter that violence is to not 419 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: necessarily be unphased, because you do have to have heightened security, 420 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 1: you do have to take things a little bit more seriously, 421 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: but also you have to just keep doing it. And 422 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: that I think is one of the things that is 423 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 1: the most admirable about really the entirety of the Jewish community. 424 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: This is a terrible thing that happened in Australia, and 425 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: unlike the government in France, the Jewish community, based on 426 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: thousands of years of them doing so, will be completely 427 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: and entirely undeterred. They will beat they will heighten security, 428 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: they will try to affect change in terms of thwarting 429 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 1: anti Semitism. But at the end of the day, they're 430 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: going to continue, They're going to persevere. And by the way, 431 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: this is one of the things that I think Western 432 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: civilization was based on and founded on, and it's something 433 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: that we can't lose. The this is somewhat related is 434 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: popping into my head right now. There's a book by 435 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: a guy named Tom Holland called Dominion, and it kind 436 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: of outlines the trajectory of Christianity from a specifically Jewish 437 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: religion to obviously more broadly, a global religion. And one 438 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: of the things he points out that I thought was 439 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: really interesting is this resiliency factor. When the Jewish people 440 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: throughout you know, biblical literature, were forced out of where 441 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: they lived, or conquered or any of the other bad 442 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: things that can happen to eight people, they maintained their 443 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: belief in God, and that is unique among so many 444 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 1: different religions. More specifically, there's a I think he makes 445 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: the case of a horror Mazda I think is the 446 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: Persian god's name, and he basically outlines the fact that, hey, 447 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: you know, a horror Mazda was this big deity in 448 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: Persian society. But then when their kings and their leaders 449 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: lost and the people dispersed and you know, had different 450 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: ideas of how things work, that God effectively faded away. 451 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: He effectively kind of just faded into the ether because 452 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: what wasn't real. What I think this proved in that 453 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: line of resiliency. What I think this shows is that 454 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: the God of truth brought to everyone through the Jewish 455 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: people is a God that perseveres, is a He is 456 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: a God that maintains dominion over his people even in 457 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: the face of tragedy, and in so many different cases. 458 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: I think the West more broadly, in Western civilization needs 459 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: to stand up to any of the threats coming from 460 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: all sides, the violent left, the Muslim extremists, the Islamic fundamentalists, 461 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: which I I guess I repeated myself there it's the 462 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: same thing. Needs to take a page out of the 463 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: long history of God and his people in resilience, and 464 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: we can't become like France. Yeah, the the the threat 465 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: is too high, so we're we and it would probably 466 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: it would be too expensive to make sure that this 467 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: was safe and just cancel it. It's kind of par 468 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: for the course for France. You know, if you're if 469 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: you're going with the history of France, the joke is, 470 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: how do you say hello in French? I surrender way 471 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: of your little white flag. That's the exact wrong way 472 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: of going about any of this stuff. And again I 473 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: don't want to pretend like there are no instances where 474 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: the safety of people are you know, is compromised to 475 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: an extent where it's not viable to actually do. I 476 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: get that. I'm not trying to This is not a 477 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: blanket term, but in this particular instance, in an event 478 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: this rooted in French tradition, in an event that this 479 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: big and seen by the world, you absolutely cannot just 480 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: capitulate and fold to the threats because eventually what you're 481 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: doing is you're folding in on Western ideas and that 482 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: is not the world that we want to live in 483 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: with to fight to save Western civilization, as difficult as 484 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: it might be, Like I said a number of times, 485 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: this is a little bit more serious of a conversation 486 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: than I think we generally have on this show. Usually 487 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: keep it we keep it light and fun. And maybe 488 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: maybe we'll do that a little bit later on the show. 489 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,479 Speaker 1: There's some uh, there's some fun stuff on ilhan Omar. 490 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: I didn't know how many times this lady was married. 491 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: It's actually kind of interesting in and of itself and 492 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 1: whether or not that's permissible under or religion. So there's that. 493 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll get into that in a little bit.

How are we right now the 529 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: same country that started a revolution over tea taxes? Now, 530 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: the American Revolution was started over many other things, and 531 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: that was kind of the the climax of it is 532 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: like this is this is absolutely enough, Like you know, 533 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: the stand back, there's a bunch of different things that 534 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: happened leading up to the Boston tea party. But how 535 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: are we the same country a relatively small tax on tea? No, 536 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: we're we're going to fight a war to separate ourselves 537 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: from the king. Here to now, Hey, here's forty percent 538 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: of my income federal government and state depending on your income. 539 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,959 Speaker 1: Here's here's half of the money that I make. What 540 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: are you doing with it? Well, we're actually promoting transgender 541 00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: theater in Brazil. Great, How that not sparked a revolution? 542 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: Obviously not a physical warlike revolution, but an electoral revolution 543 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: at the ballot box? How is that not the thing? Well, now, jeez, 544 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: here I am at the risk of going off another 545 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: long die tribe about taxes and the broadening the tax base. 546 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 1: And when you minimize the tax base, nobody cares what happens. 547 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: I think the majority of Americans don't actually pay income tax, 548 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: and that's a big problem because if you don't pay 549 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: income tax, then you don't care where the tax money 550 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: is going to. And if you don't care what tax 551 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: money is going to, sure go ahead and give it 552 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: to lesbian interpretive dance in Nicaragua. Just who cares at 553 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: that point? But again, another risk of a longer diet 554 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: tribe there that all spare you all today, send your 555 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 1: thanks tbtatbusa dot com. Thank you for sparing us your 556 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: long diet tribe about the tax base. Uh wow, if laughing, 557 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,439 Speaker 1: that's where again we're not in a good place where 558 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: U boy. This is from Reason Magazine. I thought this 559 00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: was illuminating, scary, horrifying, probably which I realize is further 560 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: to the scare meter of scary, but is what it is. 561 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: Survey publishing Reason Magazines says ninety one percent of college 562 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 1: students think words can be violence, which, of course, if 563 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: you're paying attention, that can fuel actual violence. See the 564 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: assassination of my friend and yours, Charlie Kirk. When somebody 565 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: thinks that words are violence, they can justify actual violence 566 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: wrongly by the way, I'm not saying it's actually justified, 567 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: but in their own minds they might be able to go, well, 568 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: that person's words are violence, therefore we get to use 569 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: actual violence against them. That's how that works. And unfortunately, 570 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 1: a new survey from the Foundation of Individual Rights and 571 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 1: Freedom Fire, which is a great organization and college Pulse, 572 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: field a troubling trend among college students regarding the distinction 573 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: between speech and violence. The survey pulled over two thousand undergraduates, 574 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 1: including those at Utah Valley University obviously where Charlie was murdered, 575 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: along with students from colleges nationwide. When asked how much 576 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: they agree with this statement words can be violence. Ninety 577 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 1: one percent of undergrad students expressed at least some agreement. 578 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,280 Speaker 1: Twenty two percent of them said this describes my thoughts completely, 579 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: twenty five percent say mostly, twenty eight percent said somewhat 580 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: in fifteen percent said slightly, even slightly. Obviously there's a 581 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: gradation there of, you know what, actually how much people 582 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 1: agree with that, but even slightly. If you think that 583 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: words can be violence, that is a sign of a 584 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: sevie vere and much deeper problem, you know. The article 585 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,720 Speaker 1: goes on to talk about a lot of different things. 586 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: Gallup obviously has done polls about what percentage of people 587 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 1: accept political violence. Between eighteen and twenty nine year olds, 588 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,800 Speaker 1: thirty percent say that it's sometimes acceptable to use violence 589 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: to achieve political goals, twenty one percent of people from 590 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:27,919 Speaker 1: thirty to forty four to thirteen percent of those people 591 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 1: from forty five to fifty nine. In other words, too big, 592 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: too big of numbers believe that you, yeah, yeah, sometimes, 593 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 1: you know, violence to assert our goals politically ideologically is okay? 594 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 1: Concerning concerning concerning concerning to say the least, the effect 595 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: of this is following Charlie's assassination. This survey and polls 596 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: found that forty five percent of students across the country 597 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: are now less comfortable expressing their views on quote unquote 598 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: controversial political topics during classes and in discussions. In a 599 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: lot of ways, we are winning the culture war, we 600 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: are winning the free speech war, and this type of 601 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: thing proved that there is a long way to go. 602 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: I guess the silver lining there is that fifty three 603 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: percent of students say in their own schools are headed 604 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: in the right direction when it comes to free speech. 605 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,840 Speaker 1: But those numbers are not nearly high enough. There is 606 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: a lot, a lot, a lot of work to be 607 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: done on our college campuses and universities. Is why I 608 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: believe Turning Point is one of the most important institutions 609 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 1: that are going to continue trying to get through to 610 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 1: college students again, which ninety one percent of them think 611 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: that words can be violence. Man. I wish I had 612 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 1: time to go on the Marxist trope about language and 613 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: how distorting the language and manipulating it and lead to 614 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 1: the dissolution of society or Western values more broadly, because 615 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: that's what he was trying to do. He says it explicitly. 616 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: Marx and Engels talk about the explicit obfuscation of language 617 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: and that that's a conversation for a different time. I prompt, 618 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: we'll get into it. We'll laugh a little bit. In 619 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 1: the next two segments. Here we got ilhan Omar, who 620 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: was a congresswoman from the fraudulent state of mogadish sorry, Minnesota, 621 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: and her comments on the revived revived accusations that she 622 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 1: married her brother, which she did.

Why, Hey, let's put you 657 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,359 Speaker 1: out in front of cameras to get you to say 658 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: more ridiculous things. Here's one of those things. President Trump 659 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: has effectively revived the conversation of whether or not she 660 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: married her brother for immigration purposes, and she gives a 661 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: solid defense of something that we weren't talking about, which 662 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: makes me think, Hey, all right, did huh watch this clip? Bait? 663 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 5: Everybody knows they came to the United States at the 664 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 5: age of twelve, gained my citizenship at the age of seventeen, 665 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 5: and I am I like that representative in the House 666 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 5: of Congress, and so the House of Representatives in Congress. 667 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 5: And so for me, you know, I look at it 668 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 5: as a display of his ignorance, and I see it 669 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 5: as a national embarrassment that he continues to say those 670 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 5: kind of things even though he does know what the 671 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 5: truth is. 672 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, So interesting one there, Congresswoman Omar, you 673 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 1: make in the case.

I did not marry my brother in 676 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: order to get citizenship. 677 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 4: That's not what we're asking, though, Why did you answer 678 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 4: a question to something that we weren't asking. What we're 679 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 4: asking is, hey, this guy who was living in London 680 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 4: at the time came over to the United States to 681 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 4: study I think at University of North Dakota, some upper 682 00:42:55,640 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 4: Midwestern school, and you married that guy, and there was 683 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 4: possibly allegedly some advantages that he got for getting into 684 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 4: the country. And the question is out on whether or 685 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 4: not he's your brother. So nobody's asking the question that you. 686 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: Oh, no, no, I came here when I was twelve, and 687 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: I gained citizenship when I was seventeen, So I did 688 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: not marry my brother for my own citizenship, which would 689 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: leave the question that we are still asking, did you 690 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: marry your brother for his citizenship? I don't know which. 691 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: By the way, I didn't know this. She's on her 692 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: like fourth marriage. She married a dude in like the 693 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: early two thousands, not legally in some like in a 694 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:44,240 Speaker 1: religious Islamic marriage. They had two kids. Then she married 695 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 1: this other person who kind of came into the country 696 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: and allegedly maybe even was allowed to stay longer than 697 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: he might have been able to generally speaking, I think 698 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: this guy, the guy in question, her alleged brother maybe, 699 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 1: I don't know sure, seems like I think is in 700 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: South Africa right now, but then got married to him legally, 701 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: then re married the first dude, but legally in a 702 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,720 Speaker 1: court now because they had a third kid in twenty twelve, 703 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: and then divorced from him. And now she's married to 704 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: a hedge fund manager I think, and who's definitely not 705 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: taking her insights in Congress and using it to bolster 706 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 1: his own hedge funds money. I don't know if it's 707 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 1: a hedge fund specifically, but he does something in the 708 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 1: risk assessment world, so this may be me ignorant talking 709 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: TPTATVUSA dot com.

Lag I 755 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: would agree with that, not the baby themselves, but the 756 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: people that are like trying to say, no, we should 757 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: have killed this baby.

That kind of harkens back to 765 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 1: the topic that we had at the beginning of the show, 766 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,879 Speaker 1: and that seems to be accurate the more and more 767 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 1: that we see of that on the topic of gas. 768 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: These are a little bit silly, but also kind of 769 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 1: make me mad a little bit.

Good to 776 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 1: point out, but also it makes me kind of sad. 777 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: Mark says, gas Buddy is an app that's a good thing, 778 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 1: gets you a gas on the Idalo spectrum.
