1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,200 Speaker 1: All immigrants from wherever they come around the world, from 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,640 Speaker 1: first world countries to third world countries, are exactly the same, 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 1: says the libs. But are they correct. We'll also dive 4 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: into a little bit of the Texas Primary. Some interesting 5 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: fun things happen out of They're not exactly shocking, but 6 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: definitely hilarious. And is the real reason we all dislike 7 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: California because we're just so jealous of all the success? 8 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: Well that's the argument that the governor of the state 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: is making. How much does that align with reality? So much? 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: To get to here on the episode today, my name 11 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 1: is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in. The 12 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: show starts right now. Oftentimes, when I'm out and about 13 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: and I see somebody who clearly is not from the 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: United States of America, I look at one and says, well, 15 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: this person looks well kept and you know, assimilated to 16 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: the culture. They are the exact same as the person 17 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: also from a different country who doesn't have shoes and 18 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,279 Speaker 1: has a knife. For some reason, everybody is the same, 19 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: according to the libs. Now is that true? Spoiler alert? No, 20 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: But into several of the reasons as to why. In 21 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: just a little bit Before that, I got to remind you. 22 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: TPT at TPOSA dot com is the email if you'd 23 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, even criticisms, 24 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: those are welcome TPT at TPUSA dot com. And remember 25 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: if your emails or comments on social media wherever it 26 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: is that you happen to be watching this are disgusting, 27 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: vile and just downright nasty, we actually will probably read 28 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: them on the show. We have some hilarious joke. You 29 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: guys are funny, by the way. We have some very 30 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: funny jokes. He had a funny joke yesterday. Was it? 31 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: The going on in Iran? Is March madness? Very funny 32 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: stuff in the email if you'd like to participate, and 33 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: you know, have me judge your humor ability. TPT at 34 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: tposa dot com is that email address. So for today, 35 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: I would like to ask the question, are all immigrants 36 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: the same from everywhere? Now, what we're not talking about 37 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: is people in general. Obviously we're all people, and therefore 38 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: we're all made in the image of God. But at 39 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 1: the same time, does that mean we all behave exactly 40 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,559 Speaker 1: the same Now? Rather than look at this you know anecdotally, 41 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: which you could probably draw some various conclusions to say, no, 42 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: not some people from different countries are very very different. 43 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: What happens when we actually look at some of the statistics. Now, 44 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: just to get this out of the way at the onset, 45 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: there is a prominent lefty talking point that we hear 46 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: very very often that says this, This is cut fifteen. 47 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: Immigrants as a group commit less crime than native born Americans. 48 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 3: If you look at the statistics, the crime rate among 49 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 3: immigrants is far lower than the crime rate among native 50 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 3: born Americans. 51 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: This is something that we hear so often. Well, immigrants 52 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,399 Speaker 1: commit less crime than people who are born here. Now, 53 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: there's a number of problems with this. Then we'll get 54 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: to that. But the first and biggest one is, well, 55 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: are you separating the legal immigrants from the illegal immigrants? 56 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a conversation we've been having now 57 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: for years. The Libs love to conflate the two terms. 58 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: But what is the data show if you don't conflate 59 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: them and actually separate them. How much more crime is 60 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants? Are legal immigrants committing versus legal immigrants? Now, 61 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: just to be clear here, we're just talking about their 62 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: discussion of it, meaning to say that for the sake 63 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: of argument, let's take their side and say, okay, well, 64 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: let's just conflate all of them together, if you conflate 65 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: illegal and legal immigration, which you shouldn't. There is some 66 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: data that they love to point to that say, well, yeah, 67 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: they do commit less violent crime, But is that really 68 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: the full picture here? Is that really encompassing everything? The 69 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: actual problem is, in reality, we don't have enough data. 70 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: The numbers that the libs love to quote from comes 71 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: out of a Cato Institute study looking at criminal records 72 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: in Texas from twenty thirteen to twenty twenty two. Now, okay, 73 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: a couple of questions. You may think Texas. Is Texas 74 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,799 Speaker 1: the hotbed of illegal immigration? I mean, sure, that's where 75 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: many people cross the border because it's on the border, 76 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: But do they actually end up staying there considering Texas's 77 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: policies generally speaking, No? So why is Texas the base 78 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: point used here? Obviously, the policies of Texas differ a 79 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: ton from other states, especially those deep blue states and 80 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: sanctuary areas where illegals love to flood to because nothing's 81 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: going to happen to them there, believe it or not. 82 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: Why Texas is because Texas is the only state that 83 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: keeps comprehensive data relating to immigration status at the point 84 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: of arrest. No other state actually does any of that. So, 85 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: while Texas might not be the best representative of what's 86 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: going on in the entire country, it's the only one 87 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: that actually keeps the data. And on top of that, 88 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,359 Speaker 1: there are a lot of other variables to account for. 89 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: You may remember Texas Governor Greg Abbott shipping people all 90 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: over the country who are here illegally, which, by the way, 91 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: was the best political stunt I think I've ever seen 92 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: in my lifetime. And yes, it was a political stunt 93 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: because clearly he's doing it to create optics. But at 94 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: the same time, it's proving a very very salient point 95 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: that look, hey, you want to claim and be a 96 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: sanctuary state and welcoming here, go ahead, let's let's prove 97 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: that concept. Go ahead and welcome all of these folks. 98 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: Another variable is that Texas is fully cooperative with the 99 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: federal government, which begs the question, if the data is 100 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 1: based on convictions, what happens if the illegals get deported 101 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: rather than go to trial. Now, obviously, you know your 102 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: big offenses like homicide, they're going to go to trial, 103 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: and Texas is going to seek a conviction, but for 104 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 1: minor offenses, which include simple assault dy theft under twenty 105 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: five hundred dollars, which which I think is a big 106 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: deal as well, there's actually a decent chance the illegal 107 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: has been turned over to the FEDS for deportation before 108 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: a conviction can be pursued or secured. And all of 109 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: this assumes that it even matters, which it doesn't, because 110 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: any amount of crime committed by illegals who shouldn't be 111 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: here in the first place is additional crime that wouldn't 112 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: have happened if they weren't here. If illegals committed ten 113 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: percent of the crime that native born citizens commit, which 114 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: they don't, that wouldn't be a good argument for ignoring 115 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: immigration law. Hey, ten people broke into my car, but 116 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: only one stole something is not a good argument for 117 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: not locking your doors. Basing a talking point on data 118 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: that is highly questionable and doesn't include vast majorities of 119 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: high crime areas is ridiculous, especially if the argument is 120 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: only being used to justify breaking another law. Now, all 121 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: of that being said, the question still remains. Even if 122 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: we're going to follow immigration law and allow legal immigration. 123 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: Does it matter where those people come from? Does it 124 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 1: matter the cultural background of those who would legally immigrate 125 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: to the United States of America or really any first 126 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: world Western country, you know, as long as it legal, 127 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: Does the culture matter of the people coming in? And 128 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: that's a question worth asking, and it's also one that 129 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: should be decided by first world Western countries. I mean, 130 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: it seems obvious that if a country was willing to 131 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: accept people from different places around the world, it would 132 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: want to have people from places, most likely their own country. 133 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: That is to say that Western countries with Western values 134 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: and first World countries with First World values, if they 135 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: want immigration, they would want people who have similar cultural 136 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: values and similar cultural backgrounds. Like if my wife and 137 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: I were wanting to broaden our friend group, which we don't. 138 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: By the way, this is not an invitation or an application. 139 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm just saying if we did, we'd obviously would look 140 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: to find other couples, probably that have kids similar to 141 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: our age and who share our same core values. What 142 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: we wouldn't do is seek out a sixty year old 143 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: blue haired atheist Marxist to join our friend group. That's 144 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: just not what we would do in the same way, 145 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 1: countries should want to attract people who are most likely 146 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: to assimilate to the culture of that country, rather than 147 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: people who can't or even worse, won't. This seems should 148 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: be obvious, but it's also seems totistically provable. Unfortunately, Europe, 149 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: like much of the United States, has been experimenting with 150 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: importing a bunch of people who don't share the cultural 151 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: values and come from third world as President Trump would say, 152 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: s wholes. Now, just so we're clear, this has nothing 153 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: to do with race, right, Everybody loves to make this 154 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: a racial thing, and it has everything to do with culture. 155 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: It has everything to do with first world countries versus 156 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: third world countries and whether or not people from third 157 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 1: world countries are better at assimilating than those from first 158 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: world countries. Let's use Germany as an example and take 159 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: a look at some of the crime statistics there in 160 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, which is the data that's most recent. 161 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: There were a couple really interesting points in the arguments 162 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: of first world countries versus third world countries. In Germany, 163 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand residents are Algerian nationals. Now, according to 164 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 1: German police data, of those twenty five thousand Algerian nationals, 165 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: seventeen hundred and twenty nine were violent crime suspects. That 166 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: leaves the Algerians in Germany with a violent crime suspect 167 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 1: per capita rate of almost seven thousand per one hundred thousand, 168 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: or seven percent of Algerian nationals are suspected criminals. Now, 169 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 1: Algeria is a third World country, and the idea that 170 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: they could just assimilate to life in a first World 171 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: country is incredibly wrong, even if it's just for this 172 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: reason alone. Now, also for reference here, Germany is also 173 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: home to between thirty six thousand and thirty nine thousand 174 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: Japanese nationals. I just want to point out the fact 175 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: here that both Japanese and Algerian nationals are different races 176 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: than Germans. Right, clearly, but Japan is a first World country, 177 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: and even though Japan would technically technically be considered an 178 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: Eastern country, its value system is clearly more in line 179 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: with Germany than Algerias is. Of the almost forty thousand 180 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: Japanese nationals in Germany, the suspects of violent crime are 181 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: two by the way, not two percent, which would still 182 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: be three times lower the Algerian rate. No No, No two total, 183 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: which means in a first world country, the third world 184 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: Algerians are almost fourteen hundred times more likely to be 185 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: a suspect of violent crime than the first World Japanese immigrants, 186 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: and Germany is just one example of all across here, 187 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: But let's just focus on Germany for right now. First 188 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: World immigrants to Germany from countries like the US, the UK, Japan, 189 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: South Korea, they're violent crimes suspect rates are about the 190 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: same as native born Germans. Now third World origin country 191 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: immigrants from like Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Syria, Afghanistan, et cetera, 192 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: have somewhere between four and ten times higher the rates 193 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: of being suspected violent criminals. And like I said, Germany 194 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 1: is just one of many examples. In Europe Sweden, immigrants 195 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: from Western countries like the United States or the EU 196 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: more broadly have about the same violent crime rates as 197 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: native born citizens. Now, non Western countries, like people from 198 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: North Africa, the Middle East Africa more broadly have a 199 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: violent crime slash rape rate of two to five times 200 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: higher than the native born or first World immigrants in Sweden. 201 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: In the UK, it's very similar. The Japanese immigrants, Chinese 202 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: immigrants first world countries, and whether or not we like 203 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: China first world countries, a very low arrest rate, very 204 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 1: low conviction rate. Now the third worlders are severely represented 205 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: in prisons in the UK, in the United States, Asian 206 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: slash European immigrants like Japanese, Korean, or just more broadly European, Spain, 207 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: Portugal have the lowest violent crime rates and lowest incarceration rates. Now, 208 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: those from third world countries, including those in Latin America, 209 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: have substantially higher rates. Now. The point here is one 210 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: that the idea that immigrants, both legal and illegal, commit 211 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: less crime is fuzzy at best when you account for 212 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: the fact that the data is specifically from Texas has 213 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: very different policies from several of the sanctuary locations in 214 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: the United States of America. What actually seems to matter 215 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: is where those immigrants come from. Immigrants from third world countries, 216 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: who likely are severely overrepresented in the illegal category, often 217 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: fail to assimilate. They commit crimes at a disproportionate level, 218 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: and likely it's because of the cultural norms from the 219 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: places they came from. Immigrants from first world countries, regardless 220 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: of their race, who I can guarantee you have much 221 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: lower likelihood of being illegal, seem to adjust and assimilate 222 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: fairly easy. So even if you take out the illegal component, 223 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: which you shouldn't, are all immigrants, no matter where they 224 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: come from, all the same. No, And therefore, as a 225 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: Western first world country to the extent that we should 226 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: allow immigrants, which is a big debate in and of itself, 227 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: should we prioritize immigrants from first world countries? Obviously yes, 228 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: And like I said, this should be obvious to anyone 229 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: who does not want to see their first world home 230 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: denigrated into a third world hellhole. All immigrants from all 231 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: countries are not the same. It's crazy that we have 232 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: to say this, but even statistically speaking, it's just true. 233 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: If you have any thoughts about this, would love to 234 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: hear those. Tpt at tpusa dot com is the email address, 235 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: and remember, if those thoughts are we'll just let you 236 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: have those thoughts there if you agree. If you're shocked 237 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: by any of these statistics, which I'm hard pressed to 238 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: find anybody who's watching this show in really America's voice 239 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: that would be shocked by any of this, would love 240 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: to hear TPT at TPUs A dot com coming up. 241 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: There's lots of headlines going on around the political and 242 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: news universe. We will get to several of those, getting 243 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: to the point. We'll be right back after the break. 244 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 4: Don't go away. 245 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 5: The American double standard. 246 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: Zero Americans killed in Porto Riata, zero Americans killed in Cabo. However, 247 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 3: last night there was a mass shooting in Austin, Texas. 248 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 3: I lived in Austin for sixteen years. Three people killed, 249 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 3: fourteen people injured. 250 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 5: But is anybody canceling their flights to Austin or Texas 251 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 5: or the United States? 252 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 6: Nope? 253 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 5: But hey, if there's some buses burnt or some cars 254 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 5: burnt and one city in Mexico, hey, it's happening all 255 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 5: over that massive country. Let's cancel all of our trips 256 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 5: to Mexico. It's not safe. It's so ridiculous, man, it's 257 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 5: so stupid. 258 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 3: Really, I don't know why we have that double standard 259 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 3: as Americans, but it needs to stop. 260 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: That is a room temperature IQ level. Take That is 261 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: a guy with a seventy five IQ trying to make 262 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: something into what he is. Now. Just for the record, 263 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: I think I pulled this from a guy who's like 264 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: a realtor in Caba, and so yeah, he's getting pit 265 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: pretty hard right now because people are canceling their trips 266 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: to Mexico. But obviously the argument is not to you know, 267 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: downplay the horrible shooting that happened in Austin by a 268 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: what appears to be aslam As extremists, which is unfortunately 269 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 1: not super uncommon. To compare that to the overall culture 270 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: in Mexico, where the homicide rate is like four hundred 271 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: times higher than the United States of America. But no 272 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: Americans died in Porto i Art though, when the cartel 273 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: you know, attacked the entire city. So therefore it's the 274 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: same thing, you know, one isolated incident, albeit very terrible, 275 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: versus an entire cartel takeover of this one specific region. 276 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: Because the police in Mexico had the audacity to try 277 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: and enforce the law. And I think twenty police officers 278 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: law enforcement agents in Mexico died during that, which is 279 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 1: mind blowing. You know, those are those are the same. 280 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: Not only are they the same, Mexico is actually safer. 281 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: This is the thought process of somebody who's very very stupid. 282 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: I just I don't know how to I don't know 283 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: how else to put it nicely? Room temperature IQ take 284 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: all right, Well, lots of things happening around the world, 285 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,239 Speaker 1: interestingly enough, lots of things happening outside of Iran. I 286 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: know we talked quite a bit about that yesterday, but 287 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 1: there's lots of stuff going on. So in order to 288 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: get to some of those things, it is time to 289 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 1: get to the point. Get to the pone, get to 290 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: the pond. As we make our way around the news 291 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: headlines of the day, we start first in Texas. Lots 292 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: of primaries happened in Texas last night. I'm curious TBTTPUSA 293 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 1: dot com if you were surprised by any of the 294 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: primaries going on here. But this from CNN regarding the 295 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: contentious race between Congressman Jasmine Crockett, who also has a 296 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: room temperature IQ. Texas Supreme Court stops Dallas County from 297 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: count late votes over confusion after confusion over the new rules. 298 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: Now this is hilarious to me. I know we're kind 299 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 1: of doing this a little bit out of order, but 300 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: one Jasmine Crockett also made it into official business. But 301 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: because this relates to this story, I want to play 302 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: this clip from her right now. This is cut six. 303 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, this is what Republicans like to do, and so 304 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 2: they specifically targeted Dallas County. And I think we. 305 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: All know why. Yeah, we all know why, Congressman Crockett, 306 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: because the conservatives in the state of Texas really really 307 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: wanted to get you out of the race. Another room temperature, IQ, 308 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: take sweetheart, Look, we all wanted you to win. Every 309 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 1: single conservative around the country wanted Congressoman Crockett to advance 310 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: to the general election in Texas. Do you know how 311 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: hilarious that would have been to see Congresswoman Crockett in 312 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 1: a general election that has national implications. That would have 313 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:15,719 Speaker 1: been so much fun. Now we have to go against 314 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: a guy who's seems reasonable. He's not, by the way, 315 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: and I think he appears quite a bit in woke 316 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: Wednesday instead of Congresswoman Crockett, you know, sitting there acting 317 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: all of her questions whatever it is that she's doing 318 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: to try and campaign. That would have been so much 319 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: fun for all of us. We all wanted her to win, 320 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: and she's blaming us for her loss. No, unfortunately, you're 321 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: just unpopular. The bottom line here is to get back 322 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: to this headline, getting back to the point here, she 323 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: blames Dallas County. They are stop counting. All the rules 324 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: are different. Therefore, what this is is not confusion over 325 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: the rules. It is a conservative conspiracy to get me out, 326 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 1: even though we really really wanted her to win. Changes 327 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: in the election day voting procedures in Dallas and Williamson 328 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: Counties required votes to cast ballots only at their assigned 329 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: precincts rather than any county wide voting center, which makes sense. Well, 330 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: there's a lot of reasons why that makes sense, but 331 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: makes sense. It led to widespread confusion and hundreds of 332 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 1: voters being turned away from polling places during the primary elections. Now, 333 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: the idea of being turned away is a very charged 334 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: language with lips. While they were turning people away from 335 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: the voting places, now they shut up to the wrong place. 336 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 1: That's not turning somebody away. It's like saying, well, well, 337 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: you came to get I don't know, copies of your 338 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: most recent leaflet, and you didn't go to staples. You 339 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: went to the lumber yard, like they were. This customer 340 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: was turned away. Now they went to the wrong place. 341 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 4: It do fist. 342 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 1: There's a little bit more in here, but that's basically 343 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: the gist of it. That is the argument that one 344 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: Congressman Crockett was making last night. The Conservatives changed the rules. Now, 345 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 1: we just made it so that people should only vote 346 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: in the place that they live in. And be beyond that, 347 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: she lost substantially more votes than she that would have 348 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,719 Speaker 1: been accounted for in this and even on top of that, 349 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: like I said, we wanted her to win. Very very silly. 350 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: Next point that I'd like to get to really interesting here. 351 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: This is from the New York Times, which, by the way, 352 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: the staff on this show, myself included, reads the New 353 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: York Times mostly to punish ourselves first, since that's a 354 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 1: way it's a self inflicted punishment for bad things that 355 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:43,959 Speaker 1: we've done in life, we have to read the New 356 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: York Times. But from the New York Times, Iran's secret 357 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: outreach highlights Trump's challenge. And this is really interesting, and 358 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: again because the idea is that the difficulty, not the difficulty, 359 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: the excess captence or not of these attacks are still 360 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: yet to be seen. There's a bunch of polling going 361 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: around like the American people don't like this, but in reality, 362 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: the American people will either like it because the outcome 363 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: is beneficial and advantageous for the United States of America 364 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: and expeditious and efficient and executed well, or none of 365 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: those things will happen, and therefore the American people won't 366 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: like it. But what I'm saying here is the American 367 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: people's approval of this versus not is entirely contingent on 368 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 1: the outcome of it. And like I said yesterday, I 369 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: have full faith and trust that President Trump, the business 370 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: guy in the White House, will be able to execute 371 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: a plan expeditiously and efficiently, and therefore, hopefully I'm hoping 372 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: the outcome will be good, just like it was in June. 373 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 1: Despite this from the New York Times, despite Iran's surviving 374 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 1: leaders publicly refusing to negotiate with President Trump amid ongoing 375 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: US and Israeli military strikes, operatives from Iran's Ministry of 376 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: Intelligence have secretly reached out through third party countries spy 377 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: agencies to the CIA one day after the attacks begun, 378 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: offering to discuss terms for ending the conflict. Now, of course, 379 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: the question here is, then, yeah, okay, sure, you have 380 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: to publicly say, well, we won't negotiate if I were 381 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: a President Trump, and I would imagine he's doing this, 382 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,239 Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, we're gonna go ahead and take 383 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: your public stance. We're not gonna negotiate behind the scenes, 384 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,439 Speaker 1: because if the goal is to promote the people of 385 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: Iran to take back their country and institute regime change 386 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: that way, why would we backchannel. It doesn't make any sense. 387 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: If I were a President Trump, and again I hoping 388 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 1: he does this. He says, Now, now we're gonna take you, 389 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: guys at face value. If you're gonna tell the people 390 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: of your country, we will not negotiate and use that 391 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: to try and hold onto the power that the regime has. 392 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: We don't want that, and so we're just gonna take 393 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: it at face value. It is gonna be fascinating to 394 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: see what goes on there. Obviously, we want the best outcome, 395 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: and if the outcome is good, the American people will 396 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: approve despite whatever the polling numbers say. Here this from 397 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 1: Breitbart next point to get to tampons in the company's 398 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: men's bathroom have helped derail Netflix's bid to buy Warner Brothers. 399 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: This is fascinating to me because of all of the 400 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: hills to die on, this is this is it. Breitbarb says, 401 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: Netflix attempted to acquire Warner Brothers Discovery and invited conservative 402 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: congressmen to their headquarters to convince them the company was 403 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: not overly left wing or woke in order to gain 404 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: political support for the deal. Now, obviously massive deal. You've 405 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: got all of the monopoly rules going on here. Whether 406 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: or not this makes you know, Netflix too big of 407 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 1: a company, or whoever it is that ends up buying 408 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: Warner Brothers, whether it's Paramount or Netflix, does that do 409 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: antitrust rules apply here? So they invited some conservative congressmen 410 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: to say, hey, look at we're not you know, we're 411 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: not woke. We should have approved this deal. It won't 412 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: make us a monopoly all of these things. During the visit, though, 413 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: the mommakers discovered that there were tampons in the men's bathroom. 414 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: Went yeah, not doing a great job at convincing us 415 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 1: that you're not absurdly woke. Now, obviously there are other 416 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: factors involved here, antitrust being one of them, being a monopoly, huge, 417 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 1: huge problem. But at the very least, wouldn't this be 418 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: a very very easy and simple problem to solve? Now, 419 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: just for the record, the update on the story is 420 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: that Netflix effectively has pulled out, which means that Paramount 421 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: Paramount plus who is headed up by the Edison Ellison family, 422 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: who I don't know if they're out the Oracle. I 423 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,479 Speaker 1: don't know if they're outspoken Trump people. But Larry Elson 424 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: has allowed Trump to have fundraisers at his properties, and 425 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: bottom line looks to be a more company, more in 426 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 1: line with the correct way of thinking, if you want 427 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: to look at it that way. So ultimately Netflix has 428 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: effectively pulled out of this deal, and it looks like 429 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: Warner Brothers Discovery is going to go to Paramount, which 430 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe minimal incremental win for conservatives more 431 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: broadly overall, So that I think is fantastic. We have 432 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: time for a couple more Yeah, all right, getting to 433 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: the point here. Source Newsmax. The US government shoved three 434 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: shut shed take two. The US government shed three hundred 435 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: and eighty six thousand, eight hundred and twenty six workers 436 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: in Trump's first year back now, it is fascinating to me. 437 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 1: The US federal government reduced its workforce by three hundred 438 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: and eighty six thousand employees during President Trump's first year. 439 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: The substantial job cut came a lot in the public sector. 440 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: What is fascinating to me is the different perspectives that 441 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: people have on this. Obviously, Conservatives, I look at this 442 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: and go, sweet, fantastic. We are already spending an exorbitant 443 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: amount of money on people who don't do anything, and 444 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: therefore the business guy coming in to make all of 445 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: this more efficient is fantastic. Now on the other side, 446 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: Libs go, They'll take one instance and go, this mother 447 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 1: of nine who I don't know, some sob story and 448 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 1: not to say that it's not sad, but was fired 449 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: from her job that she didn't do because of evil 450 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: evil Conservatives who want to make sure their tax dollars 451 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: are put to good use. And that's the different perspectives 452 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: that people have. I look at it and go, awesome, 453 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: let's you could probably cut fifty percent of the federal 454 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: government and nobody would notice, just it wouldn't have a 455 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: tangible effect on anybody's life. But then you know, people 456 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: like the New York Times will pick this out and go, 457 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: can you imagine be jobless? Now, of course they could 458 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: go find other jobs in the in the private sector 459 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: and make money that way, but can you imagine how 460 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: evil and cruel? So there's that The last point to 461 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: get to and I don't even entirely know why this 462 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: was even on the table, but this is from the 463 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: California Post. Texas DA says that no charges for the 464 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: hero cop who stopped the deadly bar shooting amid criticisms 465 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: of mandatory No charges will be filed for the cop 466 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: who stopped a bar shooting in the midst of criticism 467 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: from the mandatory grand jury review. This is Travis County 468 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: DA has said. Jose Garza, by the way, not a 469 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: not a good dude. I like I've known a little 470 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: bit of We did a full documentary with The Daily 471 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: Caller a couple of years ago about the deep Blue 472 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: das and Jose Garza was one of those we highlighted 473 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: in Austin texts. Actually w to Austin. But he even 474 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: has a progressive announced that his office will not seek 475 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: any charges against the Austin police officer who fatally shot 476 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: the gunman who killed three people and injured thirteen on 477 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: I think is that number? Oh no, it's for including 478 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: him injured thirteen in the mass shooting in Austin early 479 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: Sunday morning. Despite the progressiveness of that guy, I think 480 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: this is good. I am four progressives who know their 481 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: were outspoken progressives like die Jose Garza tacking back to sanity. Now, 482 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: do I think we should get rid of them out 483 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: of office? Yes, but also I don't mind if they 484 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: occasionally come to sanity right. Broken clocks right twice a 485 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: day is not necessarily a bad thing. So ultimately good 486 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: glad that that hero who probably saved a bunch of 487 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: lives is not going to have the burden of having 488 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: to deal with this. Uh that is they get to 489 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: the point. We got to a lot of points there, fun, 490 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: good times, A lot of context nuanced things are going 491 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: on in the world today outside of even rent, even 492 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: though we talked about ran just a little bit. Coming 493 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: up next, we're to talk about official business, because remember 494 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 1: official when people at official capacities are saying things that 495 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: makes it our business and therefore official business.

We will be 501 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: right back after the break. 502 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 4: Don't go away. 503 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: It's a message to Iran. Don't Iran in this moment. 504 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: Don't I'm gonna I'm that of them. I don't care. 505 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: I don't care. Okay, Look, we have differing opinions across 506 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: you know, the conservative spectrum on whether or not helping 507 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: out with the the strikes in Iran is a good 508 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: thing or bad thing? Is it in America's best interest? 509 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: We want foods. A lot of different opinions, but I 510 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: think the one thing that all conservatives can be together 511 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: on is the last thing you want is the feeble limp, wristed, 512 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: no backbone, don't, don't or what I have this problem 513 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: with by Toddler. I love her, but if she's doing 514 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: something that I don't want her to do, you know what, 515 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: I can't say, hey, don't do that, because what if 516 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: she doesn't listen? It has to be don't do that 517 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: or else this will happen. This sort of punishment will happen. 518 00:32:54,800 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 1: You can't just sit there and go her don't. I 519 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: think it's a pretty good Biden impersonation. By the way, 520 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: at the very least, we can all agree that you 521 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: need to have a strong presence to be the head 522 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: the commander in chief of the world's greatest military. And 523 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: whether or not you like iron the strikes on Iran, 524 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: whether or not you like any of that is not irrelevant. 525 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: But the broader, bigger point is that I'm so glad 526 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: that we have just somebody that isn't a huts for 527 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: lack of a better term. All right, it's time for 528 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: my favorite part of the day. It is anytime anybody 529 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: in an official capacity says anything, whether they are elected or 530 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: they are government bureaucrat appointed by those elected, anytime they 531 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: say anything, it is official business. Now official business is yes, 532 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: this is official business. And also some of the things 533 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: that we islight here are objectively fine. They just are. 534 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: One of which is anytime the governor of Minnesota talks, 535 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: I think we can all just giggle with glee. Now, yes, 536 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: he's a bad person, and he should be removed from 537 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,720 Speaker 1: office by way of election, but also possibly even charged 538 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: from you know, fraud, But at the very least we 539 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: can we can still continue to laugh at him. And 540 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: that laughter that we should give to him is provided 541 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 1: specifically by one Nancy Mace here in this clip cut seven. 542 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 3: What is a woman? 543 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: Have you learned that lesson? 544 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 5: Do you know what a woman is. 545 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm the governor of Minnesota Country. I'm not here to 546 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: be your proper session. So if you can't a woman is, 547 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: you certainly can't define what fraud is. If you can't 548 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: even define when a woman is, you can't define fraud. 549 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: I think I have some disagreements with Nancy Mason on 550 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: a bunch of different things, but I think this is 551 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: a very salient question that needs to be asked of 552 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:09,879 Speaker 1: libs continually. You nothing really matters if you can't identify 553 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: objective reality right like that. That is the fact that 554 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: libs are continuing to die on this hill blows my 555 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: freaking mind. And to be honest with you, politically speaking, 556 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 1: I'm here for it. I would love nothing more than 557 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: every single top LIB to continue to say, yes, men 558 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: can play in women's sports. Now, obviously I don't think 559 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: that should happen, and we should institute rules against that. 560 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: But if they keep saying it, that means they will 561 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: lose more because the average American does not believe that, 562 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: and if they keep saying it, they will lose, and 563 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: therefore we will win. Right on tamp on, Tim, thank you, 564 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: thank you so much. Continuing on with official business, and 565 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,720 Speaker 1: I think this guy will make some some other news 566 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 1: here later on the show, as it is, Woke wins. 567 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: Here is now the Democrat Lib Texas Senate nominee for 568 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 1: the Senate in Texas. He's a state representative though, so 569 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: that's why it makes it official business. Here is him. 570 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 1: Just watch and we will discuss. 571 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 6: But I say all this in terms in context of abortion, 572 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 6: because before God comes over Mary and we have the incarnation, 573 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 6: God asks for Mary's consent, which is remarkable. I mean, 574 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 6: go back and read this in Luke. I mean, the 575 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 6: angel comes down and asks Mary if this is something 576 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 6: she wants to do, and she says, if it is 577 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 6: God's will, let it be done, let it be let 578 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 6: it happen. So to me, that is an affirmation in 579 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 6: one of our most central stories that creation has to 580 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 6: be done with consent. You cannot force someone to create. 581 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 6: Creation is one of the most sacred acts that that 582 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 6: that we engage in as human beings. But that has 583 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,439 Speaker 6: to be done with consent. It has to be done 584 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 6: with freedom, and and to me, that is absolutely consistent 585 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 6: with the ministry and life and death of Jesus. And 586 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 6: so that's why I that's how I come down on 587 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 6: that side of the issue. 588 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: Now, several things here, and we won't we won't spend 589 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 1: too much time on this, and yes, we've got other 590 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: stuff to get to and this could end up being 591 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 1: a three hour podcast on this. First things First, that's 592 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: not true. Just okay, just bottom line, that's not true. Right, 593 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 1: you might as well have said and Jesus proclaimed among 594 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: the mounts that all trends people are better than all 595 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: normal people. That he might as well have just said that, 596 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: because that's about as true as the thing he's saying. Now. 597 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: Even if that were the case, right, even if there 598 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: was like a you know, discussion back and forth like yeah, 599 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure about this. I Eh, even if 600 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: that was the case. Okay, so then you get to 601 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: kill babies, Like, how does that ration now work out? Oh, 602 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: because there is a like because there is a back 603 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: and forth which doesn't didn't happen. Therefore this, therefore abortion 604 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: is fine. I go back and forth on how we 605 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: should treat this as a as a thing. Because obviously 606 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: he's a serious Kennedy, he's a Democrat nominee for Senate 607 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: in the state of Texas. He could be a US 608 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: senator if several things go terribly wrong, but that actually 609 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 1: could be a reality. And if that's the case, you know, 610 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: do you treat this seriously as a theological argument or 611 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: do you laugh at the guy personally? I choose the latter. 612 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: I think that's the best approach to stuff like this. 613 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: You just just make fun of him. It's just like, dude, 614 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: you're an idiot, Like there's really no response necessary for 615 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,919 Speaker 1: something that's stupid. The problem, though, is then you also 616 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 1: have the people, unfortunately that will buy this sort of stuff. 617 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: My guess is probably not, because if he's going after 618 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: like the Christian vote, generally speaking, Christians will know how 619 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: ridiculous that is. And the only people that this would 620 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 1: appeal to are the people who aren't Christians, who he 621 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 1: probably already has their votes. So I don't necessarily think 622 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 1: it's going to be a great political point here, but 623 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: very very silly, very stupid, I am curious to see 624 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 1: if he might be more fun to make fun of 625 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: than Jasmine Crockett. I just have to ask myself, that is, 626 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: are we getting better or worse with him instead of 627 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett going forward. It's just it's a question I 628 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: ask myself. That's about all the time we have for 629 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: right now, we got to get to woke wins that I 630 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: want to make sure we leave time for that, and 631 00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: as well as your emails, which can be sent to 632 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: TP A t U s A dot com the email 633 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 1: address in case you would like to send any thoughts, comments, concerns, criticisms. 634 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: How should we treat it? I actually genuinely like here, 635 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: do we do we like combat this as if it 636 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: were a serious argument, or do we just laugh at 637 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: him and make fun of him until he goes away? 638 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: Because hopefully that's what will happen if and when he 639 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: loses in general election? T T T bus dot com. 640 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 1: We'll be right back after breaking away. I'm speaking Chinese. 641 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 1: When I'm hitting it like too hard, it feels a 642 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: little racially accentive. 643 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 5: Am I the only one? 644 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: When I'm like really cooking the tonal stuff? I get, 645 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: I get worried. That's you know what I mean?

You're gonna get used, you know what 650 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'm hidden that I have been asking this question 651 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,399 Speaker 1: about myself for a very long time when I go 652 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: to a Mexican restaurant, even like like pick the most 653 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:17,919 Speaker 1: whitewashed Mexican American restaurant, Chipotle, Like how do people who 654 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 1: speak Spanish say taco?

This is just what we call it 666 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: here and say the let me get a carneis out 667 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:10,760 Speaker 1: of taco? Or do you say aco burrito? Which burritos 668 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: aren't Mexican by the way, that's actually an American invention 669 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,360 Speaker 1: that we made of Mexican ingredients. So there is no 670 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: I guess traditional Hispanic Spanish pronunciation of burrito because that's 671 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: our thing. Yeah, very good point, very good question. One 672 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: that we will have to decide uh at some point. 673 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: Other things to decide is get whether or not to 674 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: get to It is woke Wednesday. As we've mentioned before, 675 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: one James tata Rico. How do you pronounce that? Is 676 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: it is? Is it Tara Rico or is it cal Rico? 677 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, I have no I have no idea. 678 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: But coming in for another kicking is James Tara Rico 679 00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: giving another talk at what is alleged a church, although 680 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 1: not necessarily sure of that. I have not seen this club. 681 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 1: This is a cold watch for both of us, but 682 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: we will. We will view it and discuss on today. 683 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 1: It is woke Wednesday. Here's Jim peer Rico. They progressive 684 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 1: from Texas. 685 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 6: Before we go further, I want to acknowledge that our 686 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 6: trans community needs abortion care too. Defending trans Texas is 687 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 6: something we have to do every day at the state Capitol, 688 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 6: and you better believe I'll be getting sermons on that too. 689 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 6: So when I use the word woman, it should not 690 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,280 Speaker 6: be understood as an exhaustive term, but rather as a 691 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 6: as a lens through which to understand, examine, and interrogate patriarchy, 692 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 6: similar to how we specify anti black racism when. 693 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: So, loving someone in the way that Christ would encourage 694 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,240 Speaker 1: you to is not the same at affirm as affirming 695 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 1: their delusions, right, Like we have to agree on this, 696 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: Like just because somebody says there's something my my toddler 697 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 1: really likes parrots, big fan of parents, parrots fly. If 698 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,800 Speaker 1: my toddler says I'm a parrot, I'm not gonna strap 699 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 1: wings to her and push her off the second story 700 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: of our house. That's ridiculous affirming her delusion and delusion, 701 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 1: you know, to an a half year old, she's you know, 702 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: it's not a delusion necessarily, It's just that's how two 703 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: and a half year olds think. But affirming that thought 704 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,760 Speaker 1: and so, yes, we have to defend my toddler's ability 705 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: to be a parrot does not help her in any way. 706 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:49,799 Speaker 1: It actually hinders her greatly. And then to say it 707 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: under the guise of well, this is what Christians should do, 708 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 1: this is Christianity peak. Christianity is defending delusions. No, it 709 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:02,479 Speaker 1: is you no, be be kind and loving people, even 710 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 1: those who are in much greater need. Yes, but loving 711 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: somebody does not mean affirming a delusion that they have 712 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 1: in you know, you really want to get down to it. 713 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 1: That's actually probably hurting them substantially more than it is 714 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:23,720 Speaker 1: helping them affirming a delusion. I don't know. We a's woke, Wenday. 715 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: Let's get to that. We'll email. Will be a little 716 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: bit short today, tbttvs dot COMF you want to be included, 717 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:32,280 Speaker 1: but let's get to this next one. Also from Jimen Parrico. 718 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 6: On Christianity points to the truth. I also think other 719 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 6: religions of love point to the same truth. I think 720 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 6: of different religious traditions as different languages. So you and 721 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,959 Speaker 6: I could sit here and debate what to call this cup, 722 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 6: and you could call it a cup in English, you'd 723 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 6: call it something else in Spanish and French. But we 724 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,840 Speaker 6: are all talking about the same reality. I believe Jesus 725 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 6: Christ reveals that reality to us, but I also think 726 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 6: that other traditions reveal that reality in their own ways, 727 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 6: with their own symbol structures. And learned more about my 728 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 6: tradition by learning more about Buddhism and Hinduism and Islam 729 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,360 Speaker 6: and Judaism, and so I see these beautiful faith traditions 730 00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 6: as circling the same truth about the universe, about the cosmos, 731 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 6: and that truth is inherently a mystery. 732 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:18,359 Speaker 1: Okay, at the risk of going on way too long, 733 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: and I do want to leave some time for a 734 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: mail bag. And although at this point it might not 735 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 1: get too much, this is my first time watching this 736 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: clip as well, but one this actually makes it Maybe 737 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: we should take this guy a little bit more seriously, 738 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 1: because about half of that makes sense. C. S. Lewis 739 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: talked about the Tao, which is everybody. A lot of 740 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 1: the cultures, the thinkers in that culture have recognized what 741 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 1: reality is. There's an objective truth throughout that reality. But 742 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 1: what haimed Paralikro is saying here is that well, okay, well, 743 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: so we can recognize this reality. Unfortunately libs don't. But 744 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,640 Speaker 1: that's beside the point. Right now, we can all recognize 745 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 1: this reality, but certain other religions also have the same 746 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: way of interaction acting with that reality. See that's the point. 747 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 1: That's not true. Yes, other cultures, other civilizations, other religions 748 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: can recognize what's in front of your face, but it's 749 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 1: how you interact with what's in front of your face 750 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,760 Speaker 1: is the massive difference. So to say, eh, no, Christianity 751 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 1: basically the same as Islam. You know, it's the same 752 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: sort of thing. Is incredibly not true. Now that's actually 753 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: this is actually very interesting clip because that's this is 754 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: what makes the guy like him dangerous? Is this like 755 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: half truth of like wow, other civilizations cultures can recognize 756 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,960 Speaker 1: what reality is. Okay, that's true, but how we interact 757 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: with that reality is fundamentally different. And that is why 758 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 1: some cultures and religions are better than others. This has 759 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 1: been walk Wednesday, a little bit deeper of a woke Wednesday, 760 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 1: and I think we would have wanted to get to necessarily, 761 00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 1: but mail bag is up next in the very very 762 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 1: short minutes. Don't go, We'll be right back after this, 763 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: all right. Usually here's where we have a comeback clip 764 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 1: that is usually kind of funny, but with zeb Gavin 765 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,399 Speaker 1: Newsom and maybe we'll talk about it a little bit later. 766 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: I did want to get to some mail bag because 767 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 1: we only have like two minutes here. First, a joke 768 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: from Phil Phil. I'm just gonna go and say this. 769 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 1: I do not condone this type of humor. This is 770 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,440 Speaker 1: not something that I would find funny, but because it 771 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: was sent and because the standard here is gross discussing 772 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 1: and vile. I figured I might as well bring it 773 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,359 Speaker 1: to the audience. Phil says this, did you know there 774 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:39,919 Speaker 1: are not any Walmarts in Iran? Only targets. That's not funny, Phil, 775 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: it's it's it's kind of funny. Just kidding, Robert, just 776 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 1: kidding in the fact that it's not funy. That's a 777 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:53,799 Speaker 1: very funny joke. Robert wrote in about Jimmy Carter's role 778 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,800 Speaker 1: in Iran back in nineteen seventy nine, especially the failure 779 00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 1: to resolve the hostage situation. I think basically the point 780 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 1: he's making, very good point, Robert, is that, yeah, you 781 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: want somebody with some backbone. When the IATOLA took over 782 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,440 Speaker 1: in the seventies, it was kind of like it should 783 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,839 Speaker 1: be fine now, okay, fair point, And Charlie would make 784 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,439 Speaker 1: this point too. While the US was kind of the 785 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: one that took out the or put place, it put 786 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 1: the shaw back in place. I think it was the 787 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 1: most like death that they had, and then the United 788 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,759 Speaker 1: States and CIA kind of maneuvered that out of the question. 789 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: So maybe there was some apprehension because of the uh, 790 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 1: the things we already initiated that that's why there was 791 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 1: a little backbone and pushback. But bottom line here, I 792 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 1: think it reverts back to the clip that we played earlier. 793 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: President Trump. At least we have some freaking backbone nowadays 794 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:45,399 Speaker 1: that we didn't have before. That is all the time 795 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 1: we have for tpttps dot com. We do read the 796 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: majority of those emails, whether or not we get to 797 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,879 Speaker 1: them in the show. We'll see it tomorrow, same time, 798 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 1: same place. God bless America.
