And we all have seen the harmful side 6 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 2: effects and there's a lot of reporting out there on 7 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: this and tremendous concern for grandmamas like me who see 8 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: children and friends of our grandchildren who suffer with this. 9 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: So I know your team is working own solutions.

Talk for a moment on 13 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: how you can better arm parents with information on the 14 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 2: harmful side effects of over prescribing these stimulant drugs. 15 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 3: I mean, one of the problems, Senator is that you know, 16 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: we now have one out of every five kids on 17 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 3: these drugs, and the antidepressants even more, and we know 18 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 3: very little about the long term impacts because NIH and 19 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: CDC have been. 20 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 4: Asleep at the wheel. 21 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 3: Oh right now, we are doing those studies. We're doing 22 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: extensive studies so that we can warrant parents and so 23 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 3: that we can forge the companies to put labels on 24 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 3: their products, and. 25 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 4: You know, we'll do whatever we can to show that. 26 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 3: Just to get data out to the public, that's really 27 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: what our function is, and to show what the long 28 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: term impact of. 29 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 4: Some of these drugs is. 30 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 3: You know, are we actually preventing suicide or are we 31 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 3: creating more suicide? And that's something that we don't know 32 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 3: the answer to, which is, you know, how did these 33 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 3: drugs become become so common our society without us even 34 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: knowing the answer those questions. That is malpractice at these agencies. 35 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 3: And that is the malpractice that I am going to fix. 36 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 5: Thank you, Thank you, Senator Warren, Thank you, mister Chairman. 37 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 5: So last November, while you are under consideration to become 38 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 5: Secretary of Health and Human Services, mister Kennedy, you said, quote, 39 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 5: if vaccines are working for somebody, I'm not going to 40 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 5: take them away now exceptions, no if sands or buts. 41 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 5: You would not take away vaccine from anyone who wanted them. 42 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 6: Then last week you. 43 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 5: Announced that the COVID nineteen vaccine is no longer approved 44 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 5: for healthy people under the age of sixty five. In 45 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 5: announcing the change. You said the vaccine will be available 46 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 5: for anyone who wants it. 47 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 7: Now. 48 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 5: Obviously both things cannot be true at the same moment. 49 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 5: So let's clear this up right now. Secretary Kennedy, will 50 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 5: you tell America that all adults and all children over 51 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 5: six months of age are eligible to get a COVID 52 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 5: booster at their local pharmacy today. 53 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 4: Anybody can get the booster. I'm sorry, anybody can get it, 54 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 4: say anybody. 55 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 5: So you're saying that is now the official rule of HHS. 56 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 5: Anybody is eligible to get a booster by just walking 57 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 5: into the pharmacy. 58 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 4: It's not recommended for healthy people. 59 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 8: No. 60 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,839 Speaker 5: No, If you don't recommend, then the consequence of that 61 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 5: in many states is that you can't walk into a 62 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 5: pharmacy and get one. It means insurance companies don't have 63 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 5: to cover the two hundred dollars or so cost. As 64 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 5: Senator doctor Cassidy said, you are effectively denying people vaccines. 65 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,839 Speaker 3: We're not going to recommend a product for which there's 66 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 3: no clinical data for that. Indication would is that what 67 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 3: I should be doing, what you should. 68 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 5: Be doing is honoring your promise that you made when 69 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 5: you were looking to get confirmed in this job. That is, 70 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 5: you promised that you would not take away vaccines from 71 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 5: anyone who wanted them. You just changed the classification of 72 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 5: the COVID vaccine. 73 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 4: I'm not taking them away from people, Senator. 74 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 5: It takes it away if you can't get it from 75 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 5: your pharmacy. 76 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 3: Well, most Americans are going to be able to get 77 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 3: it from their pharmacy for free dollars. Most Americans will 78 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 3: be able to get it from their pharmacy. 79 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 5: For question is everyone who wants it? That was your promise. 80 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 9: I'm no identity. 81 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 4: I never promised that I was going to recommend. 82 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 10: Every day there is a battle for your mind, raging 83 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 10: information coming from every angle, but the will to deceive. 84 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 4: Fear not. 85 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 10: You found the place for truth, the voice in a 86 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 10: generation that still has the will to believe in the 87 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 10: greatest country in the history of the world. This is 88 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 10: the Charlie Kirk Show.

But don't fear we have. 93 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 11: Some Charlie Kirk content coming at you in the second 94 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 11: hour that we prepared just for this very day. 95 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to get right into it. 96 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 11: We are blessed by an amazing first guest of this show, 97 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 11: a true patriot of this country, Senator Eric Schmidt from 98 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 11: the great state of Missouri. Senator you and I were 99 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 11: watching that exchange just before we took the air of 100 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 11: Senator Kennedy or Secretary of Kennedy going toe to toe 101 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 11: with Senator Liz Warren like it's twenty twenty two, arguing 102 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 11: about the COVID vaccine, and we don't have the clip 103 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 11: just yet, but I mean, it was an amazing exchange. 104 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 11: You and I could see us laughing on the call 105 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,799 Speaker 11: before it, so you know, he throws the gauntlet down, 106 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 11: and I think it's very central to this whole committee 107 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 11: hearing where he says, you've taken over one hundred and 108 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 11: fifty thousand dollars from big Pharma, and it seems like 109 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 11: one of the big dividing lines here. The points of 110 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 11: argument is that we're talking about institutional capture of the 111 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 11: medical establishment in this country, and it seems like some 112 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 11: people still trust these people, while it seems like the 113 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 11: vast majority of Americans have grown skeptical of what they're selling. 114 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 11: Your take on this committee hearing, and then I want 115 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 11: to get into your nack Con speech. 116 00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 12: Yeah. 117 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 13: Look, I think is rising and for good reason because 118 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 13: I think what the American people saw, particularly during COVID, 119 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 13: the lies that were peddled by the medical establishment, by 120 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 13: the CDC, by all these public health officials who you know, 121 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 13: on one hand, said you couldn't go outside, but it 122 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 13: was okay to riot at a Black Lives Matter protest, 123 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 13: that's okay. I mean, they lost complete credibility. And what 124 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 13: RFK Junior is trying to do with the Trump administration 125 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 13: is trying to do is restore the credibility by telling 126 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 13: the American people the truth, giving them information, letting make 127 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 13: their own decisions, actually run this agency how it should 128 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 13: be run. And he's challenging people who aren't being you know, 129 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 13: used to being challenged, and good for him because the 130 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 13: talking points are you know, they've been out there forever. 131 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 13: But the truth is the American people were lied to. 132 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 13: Let's just take the COVID vaccine. First of all, it 133 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 13: should have never been mandatory. In my book, The Last 134 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 13: Line of Defense, How to Beat the Left and Court, 135 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 13: I actually note this we took the vaccine mandate case 136 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 13: all the way to the Supreme Court and we won. 137 00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 8: It should have never been mandated. 138 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 13: But also we were to at first it was going 139 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 13: to prevent you getting COVID at all, then it was 140 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 13: you're going to prevent transmission. 141 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 8: Neither one of those things were true. 142 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 13: And so I think that American people have good reason 143 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 13: after COVID be very skeptical of these so called experts. 144 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 13: And I think RFK Junior was brought in to be 145 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 13: a disruptor, and that's exactly what he's doing. 146 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, well said, I mean, and by the way, I'm 147 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 11: remiss for not mentioning your book. 148 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it just came out. Last line of defense. 149 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: You were. 150 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 11: You were the vanguard of our legal defense for patriots 151 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 11: in this country that felt left out, pushed aside, marginalized, 152 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 11: or attacked and harassed by the Biden administration. You did 153 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 11: such great work there and and so you know, by 154 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 11: all means, please take another moment here, last line of defense, 155 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 11: tell the audience about it. And I love the tie 156 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 11: into what we're seeing right now play out in the 157 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 11: Senate floor. 158 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: Please, the floor is yours. 159 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 13: Well, Look, COVID was an example where power doesn't necessarily corrupt, 160 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 13: but it does reveal. And what we saw during COVID 161 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 13: was some thing I could have never imagined in this country. 162 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 13: And so when we stepped up, when we brought those lawsuits. 163 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 13: We sued on the vaccine mandate, we won. We sued 164 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 13: fifty plus school districts in Missouri to drop their mass 165 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 13: mandates for kids even because it wasn't effective, and we 166 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 13: were successful. We brought the Missouri versus Biden lawsuit that 167 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 13: exposed the censorship enterprise that included the COVID you know, 168 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 13: misinformation or malinformation they were trying to censor. In fact, 169 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 13: the censorship operations started on day three of the Biden 170 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 13: administration and ironically RFK Junior was the first one censored. 171 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 13: Another guy that was caught up in all that by 172 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 13: Anthony Fauci, who we took the deposition of that you 173 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 13: can read about in the book, was doctor J. Bodicharia, 174 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 13: who talked about natural immunity. Fauci wanted to destroy his career, 175 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 13: but now he's head of the NIH.

J. 179 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 13: Many more are now inside of the castle and they 180 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 13: don't like it. And there's a lot of disruption and 181 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 13: a lot of table that needs to happen, and not 182 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 13: everybody's gonna like it.

It's too good. Here it is, it 194 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 11: is four thirty five. 195 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 1: Put it up. 196 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 11: You are catching some heat here because your your nat 197 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 11: Con speech. 198 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: You have MSNBC columnist. 199 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 11: Senator Eric Schmidt lets his extremist flag fly and race 200 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 11: his speech at nat Coon. I'll be honest, I saw 201 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 11: a bunch of the clips from your Natcon speech and 202 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 11: I was I was standing up, I was clapping, I 203 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 11: could I mean, it was just pitch perfect, Senator, and 204 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 11: especially some of the lines that you had on the 205 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 11: H one B visa scam, and it is a scam. 206 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: And I want to play this. 207 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 11: Clip and I'll let you be the judge in the audience. 208 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 11: Is this an extremeist flag flying? Is it a racist speech? 209 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 11: Or is it just common sense? Let's go ahead and 210 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 11: play cut four twenty eight. 211 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 13: The H one B visa, for example, was sold as 212 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 13: a way to keep America globally competitive. Of course, we 213 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 13: do have an interest in attracting the truly exceptional few, 214 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 13: the very best and the brightest in the world. But 215 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 13: that's not how programs like H one B have actually functioned. Instead, 216 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 13: they've imported a vast new labor force from abroad, not 217 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 13: to fill jobs Americans can't or won't do, but to 218 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 13: undercut American wages, replace American workers, and transfer entire industries 219 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 13: into the hands of foreign lobbies. We funneled in millions 220 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,599 Speaker 13: of foreign nationals to take the jobs, salaries in futures 221 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 13: that should belong to our own children. 222 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 11: Now, Senator, this speech, which is by the way, it's 223 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 11: gotten rave reviews. I've seen everybody praising it. I mean, 224 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 11: you're just pitch perfect on this speech. It coincides with 225 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 11: some of this back and forth with India. Now we 226 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 11: know that there's about four hundred thousand, h one B 227 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 11: visas issued or renewed every year in about seventy five 228 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 11: percent of those go to India, mainly in high tech, 229 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 11: mainly in high skilled, white collar jobs. 230 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: And there's complete neighborhoods. 231 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 11: By the way, just in Dallas is in Frisco, and 232 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:28,719 Speaker 11: I went to had to go to the store in 233 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 11: Frisco and it is basically an Indian colony at this point. 234 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: I mean, God bless them. 235 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 11: They work hard, they do good work, but that community 236 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 11: has transformed overnight. Those jobs are no longer held by 237 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 11: native born Americans. Please, the floor is yours. What are 238 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 11: you seeing in this issue is their motivation on Capitol 239 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 11: Hill to address h one bs Well. 240 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 13: First of all, the reason why the left is going 241 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 13: crazy over the speech is because we unapology, unapologetically proclaimed 242 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 13: that America is a great place, and we're not going 243 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 13: to apologize forty more. The people that built this country, 244 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 13: we should celebrate them. America is the vanguard for Western civilization. 245 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 13: We settled a continent, we sent people to the moon. 246 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 13: I mean there's all these great things that we have 247 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 13: done in this country that the left wants us to 248 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 13: undermine and despise because they want to remake America. And 249 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 13: the only way you do that is if you tell 250 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 13: a different story about who we are. And that's what 251 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 13: CRT is all about, that's what DEI is all about. 252 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 13: It's what this neo Marxist cultural Marxism agenda is all about. 253 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 13: And they can't get there if we actually are proud 254 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 13: of our country. And that's what the speech was, and 255 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 13: they just don't like hearing that because for a long time, 256 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 13: I think they've had a lot of people in retreat 257 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 13: on defending America. And I'm not going to do it. 258 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 13: I'm not going to back down. I love this country. 259 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 13: I love America, and I know that the people who 260 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 13: watch this show, listen to the show, they love America too. 261 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 13: And you know what, we're not going to apologize for 262 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 13: that anymore so. Anyway that's on the speech as relates 263 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 13: to the H and B program in particular. Look, it's 264 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 13: not all that different than what happened with blue collar jobs, 265 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 13: this slow moving disaster over a period of decades, where 266 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 13: the elites told us in the name of free brade, 267 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 13: not you know, forgetting all the barriers that exist in 268 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 13: other places. It's gonna be good for you if we 269 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 13: ship all your jobs overseas. And then the blue collar 270 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 13: workers that I grew up around were then looking for jobs, 271 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 13: and then guess what, through mass migration, illegal immigration, they 272 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 13: you know, destroy the wages of those other jobs that 273 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 13: people look for. That's kind of what's happening right now 274 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 13: with white collar jobs. They're neecapping white collar jobs. By look. 275 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 13: I mentioned there is a need for the exceptional few, 276 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 13: there's no doubt about that. But here's what's really happening. 277 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 13: We're importing a bunch of people to undercut the wages 278 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 13: of white collar workers now, and they actually have to 279 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 13: train their replacements in order to get their severance package. 280 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 13: They have to go through the humiliating process of training 281 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 13: their replacement who's going to get paid less. And we 282 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 13: have plenty of people in this country who can do 283 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 13: those jobs. Yeah, and in fact, anyway we ought to be. 284 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 11: I'm going to keep you over the break just for 285 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 11: a few few minutes here, Senator, I know you got 286 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 11: to go go after that more with Senator Eric Schmidt. 287 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: When don't we get right back. 288 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 10: For one hundred percent American made and darn proud of it. 289 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 6: The Charlie Kirk Show. 290 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 11: All right, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.

Why Refi is 301 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 11: not a debt settlement company, and they work with each 302 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 11: borrower individually, tailoring the solution to your ability to pay 303 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 11: and the timing.

Obviously both things 343 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 5: cannot be true at the same moment. Will you tell 344 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 5: America that all adults and all children over six months 345 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 5: of age are eligible to get a COVID booster at 346 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 5: their local pharmacy today. 347 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 4: Anybody can get the booster. I'm sorry, anybody can get it. 348 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 7: Anybody. 349 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 5: So you're saying that is now the official rule of HHS. 350 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 5: Anybody is eligible to get a booster by just walking 351 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 5: into the pharmacy. 352 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 4: It's not recommended for healthy people. 353 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 8: No. 354 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 5: No, If you don't recommend, then the consequence of that 355 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 5: in many states is that you can't walk into a 356 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 5: pharmacy and get one. It means insurance companies don't have 357 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 5: to cover the two hundred dollars you're so cost. 358 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 11: So that wasn't the best part of that clip, but 359 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 11: it's fine. They end up getting into this explosive back 360 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 11: and forth about, you know, essentially how Liz Warren is 361 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,479 Speaker 11: taking nearly a million dollars from Big Pharma and you know, 362 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 11: she's basically a Pfizer board member at this point, and 363 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 11: they go back and forth because what RFK Junior is 364 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 11: saying is absolutely spot on. He's not telling anybody that 365 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 11: they can't get the COVID shot if they want to. 366 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 11: All he's saying is that it is no longer recommended. 367 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 11: And yeah, maybe there's a little bit of state by 368 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 11: state issues in which I can put but here's the problem. 369 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: This is not twenty twenty two. 370 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 11: If you want to go get a COVID shot, go 371 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 11: get a COVID shot. The United States government does not 372 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 11: need to be supplementing that. They do not need to 373 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 11: be subsidizing that payment. There is no pandemic, there is 374 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 11: no urgency. This is a absolute straw man argument. I 375 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 11: can't stand it from Liz Warren. She's a disgusting, disgusting, 376 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 11: disgusting senator in my humble opinion. 377 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: And by the way, she's so shrill, it's so hard 378 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: to listen to her. I can't stand it. 379 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 11: Let's go one more here. I think, I think maybe 380 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 11: this is the one. We'll see what clip this is? 381 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: Four thirty seven? 382 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 3: Are you saying that the damn RNA Act state has 383 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 3: never been as I was hit with maya car para cardis, and. 384 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 14: I am saying, I am simply you're trying to tell 385 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 14: I am simply trying to say that the people that 386 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 14: you have put on that panel after firing the entire of. 387 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 7: AID in the question you no. 388 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm asking the questions here that question. I'm asking the questions. 389 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 4: Add question. 390 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 15: I'm asking the questions for mister Kennedy on behalf of 391 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 15: parents and schools and teachers all over the United States 392 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 15: of America who deserve so much better than your leadership. 393 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 14: That's what this conversation is about, enators. 394 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: And they deserve the truth. 395 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 3: And that's what we're going to give them for the 396 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 3: first time and the history of that agency. 397 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 11: All right, So Senator Maderna is really upset that a 398 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 11: board that oversees vaccines has been replaced because once again 399 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 11: it was big pharma institutional capture that was you know, 400 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 11: previously on that board and RFK saying for the first time, 401 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 11: we're actually going to get all this bias, all this politicization, 402 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 11: all this money out of our medical establishment. 403 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: And here's four forty. 404 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 11: It's another good clip, but these are just fantastic four forty. 405 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 3: Most Americans will be able to get it from their pharmacy. 406 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 5: Question is everyone who wants it? That was your promise. 407 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 4: I know I never promised that I was going to 408 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 4: recommend products with which there is not indication. 409 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 3: Wait, you said, and I know you've taken eight hundred 410 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 3: and fifty five thousand dollars from pharmaceutical Competyator. 411 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 5: Did you hold up a big sign saying that you 412 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 5: were lying when you said that, because you are the 413 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 5: one who said you would not take them away.

More importantly, they can 508 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 11: show us that faith, family, and friends and country are 509 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 11: worth fighting for. Maybe read these books a long time ago. 510 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 11: Maybe you've heard others talk about them and they seem 511 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 11: a little intimidating.

All right, without further ado. John Levine from 518 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 11: the Washington Free Beacon. John, Welcome to the show. You 519 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 11: have been a mainstay in the media world for many 520 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 11: many years. I've run into you I multiple times over 521 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 11: the years. You do fantastic work. You're always at the 522 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 11: sort of front end of where the news cycle is going. 523 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: And I thought you would just be perfect for. 524 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 11: This because Barry Weiss, formerly of the New York Times, 525 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 11: she was on the she was a wedding opinion and 526 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 11: editor at the New York Times. Then she leaves and 527 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 11: starts the Free Press. And this is making a lot 528 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 11: of news now in media circles, and I think it's 529 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 11: worth diving into what does. 530 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: It all mean? 531 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 11: Because now we're hearing that that paramount CBS is buying 532 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 11: her company for an undisclosed amount, but we know it's 533 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 11: about maybe between one and two hundred million dollars. I mean, 534 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 11: it feels like she just started the Free Press like 535 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 11: two days ago and she's now selling it for one 536 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 11: to two hundred million dollars. 537 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: Tell us about you know Barry, you like Barry. 538 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 11: Tell us about Barry Weiss, what they what the mission 539 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 11: of the Free Press was, and why this is important 540 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 11: in the media landscape space. 541 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 19: Well, I mean, Barry is someone that comes out of 542 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 19: opinion journalism. She before the New York Times, she was 543 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 19: at the Wall Street Journal and then she went to 544 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 19: the Times to I think you know, have slightly slightly 545 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 19: more conservative voices there, and from what I recall, it 546 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 19: was just a very terrible experience. 547 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 12: All of her colleagues kind of ganged up on her 548 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 12: and they will she talked her. 549 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 19: It was very high school type stuff, and she frequently 550 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 19: like she would publish stuff and then she would face 551 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 19: online harassment from her own colleagues in public, and the Times, 552 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 19: of course, didn't really stand up for her. They never 553 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 19: disciplined any of the offenders, and eventually she left and 554 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 19: started her her own thing, The Free Press, and that 555 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 19: was I believe twenty twenty two, and now two years 556 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 19: later it's worth two hundred million dollars, which I think 557 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 19: is an incredible testament to what she's been able to 558 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 19: accomplish in such a short time, and also about the 559 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 19: gaping hole in the journalism marketplace that she identified and 560 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 19: filled with I think very necessary content. I'm not going 561 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 19: to sit here and say I love every single thing 562 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 19: the Free Press has ever published, but it's it's really good. 563 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 19: It's stuff for the most part, and I'm not surprised 564 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 19: at all to see Paramount willing to pay this nine 565 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 19: figure sum. 566 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, and what they're really buying is the trust that 567 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 11: you know Barry has cultivated. 568 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: Now I see some people hating on this. 569 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 11: There's there's a little you know, people are suggesting it's 570 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 11: not worth that. 571 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: Maybe it's not. 572 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 11: But what you're what you're buying, to your point, John, 573 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 11: is maybe not a revenue stream. I don't know what 574 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 11: pre press revenues, have no idea about their books. But 575 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 11: what you're buying is that the filling in that gaping hole, right, 576 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 11: because you've got somebody with the pedigree of a Wall 577 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 11: Street Journal and the New York Times. I mean, I 578 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 11: don't think I am. I don't know Barry on a 579 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 11: personal level at all. But I did get a couple 580 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 11: of calls from her over the years, inviting Charlie to 581 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 11: to write certain things. 582 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: We ended up passing on them. It wasn't the right fit. 583 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 11: But even the fact that if you if you think 584 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 11: back at the time we were in when I got 585 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 11: those calls, it was a remarkable thing to get get 586 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 11: a call from the New York Times and invite Charlie 587 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 11: to do sort of like a guest column or something 588 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 11: like that. Again, it was the wrong topic, it was 589 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 11: the wrong it was the wrong fit. But I still 590 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 11: noted that I logged it. I said, geez, you know, 591 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 11: she's out there at this establishment press institution inviting outside 592 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 11: voices to participate in something that you know, the Gray Lady, 593 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 11: the Paper of Record, that was a really big deal. 594 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 11: And to your point, if people don't believe this is real, uh, 595 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 11: this kind of high school activity that happens in the newsrooms. 596 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: It's very, very real. It's very it's very real. 597 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 11: On college campuses, the few professors that we know that 598 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 11: are conservatives, they get completely ostracized, they get put in 599 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 11: a corner, they're not invited to social gatherings. I mean, 600 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 11: it's really petty stuff. But again, the big takeaway here, though, John, 601 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 11: is that she's filling a gap with CBS. She's going 602 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 11: to now run CBS's newsroom. How big of a deal 603 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 11: is that, or at. 604 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 12: Least I mean, I think part of what makes it's 605 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 12: a huge deal. 606 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 19: I mean, Barry, there's a lot of big, you know, 607 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 19: media culture war divines that I'll be frank, I think 608 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 19: Barry's on the right side of you know, are we 609 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 19: going to put out fake accusations about Israel committing genocider 610 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 19: or perpetrating and famine. 611 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:08,959 Speaker 12: This is not happening. 612 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 8: This is not true. 613 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 19: And every time they find some activist or some organization 614 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 19: to insist this is happening, it turns out it's focus, 615 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 19: it's guitar funded, it's whatever. And Barry's been on the 616 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 19: front lines of ensuring that only accurate information has come 617 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 19: out on the current war in Gaza, which I know 618 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 19: is why a lot of people are very very upset 619 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 19: with her and opposed to her on the other side. 620 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 19: And you're seeing a lot of false allegations about the 621 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 19: Free Press all the time. But it's a big deal 622 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 19: because when CBS acquires the Free Press and puts her 623 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 19: in charge of the newsroom, it gives the imprimature of 624 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 19: a major media organization on the work she does, and 625 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 19: it's going to have a tremendous impact on the landscape 626 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 19: of media in our country. And I think part of 627 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 19: what makes the free press so valuable is the people, 628 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 19: is the subscribers. I don't know how many subscribers Barry has, 629 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 19: but it's probably in the hundreds of thousands, if not more. 630 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 19: And these are are educated, sophisticated people. They're people who 631 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 19: probably have money to spend, and they're people that CBS 632 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 19: wants to add to their broader audience, no question. 633 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 11: Yeah, what do you think this says about kind of 634 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 11: how the world has turned? 635 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 12: John? 636 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 11: I mean you, like I said, you've been around the 637 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 11: media landscape for a for a long time now. You've 638 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 11: seen the different iterations, the different vibe shifts that have happened, 639 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 11: and you know, then you have this huge event on 640 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 11: November fifth, twenty twenty four, President Trump wins the popular vote, 641 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 11: wins in an electoral landslide, and you have all these 642 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 11: media groups, whether it be CNN, their ratings are the 643 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 11: are in the tank, MSNBC, similar situation. Fox News is 644 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 11: going strong, Real America's Voice, the Charlie Kirk Show, We're 645 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 11: going strong. Salem Radio Network that we're also on going strong. 646 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 11: What is happening and what is the adjusted?

And I 679 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 19: think that Barry just has a lot of credibility. The 680 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 19: free press has a lot of credibility in that space, 681 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 19: and so much of what they publish is just debunking 682 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 19: false narratives in mainstream press, and they do it in 683 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 19: a very tasteful way, a very thoughtful way, Like they 684 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 19: did a story on the they say, oh, you know, 685 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,800 Speaker 19: Gaza is in famine, and they have all these the press, 686 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 19: most of the mainstream media has been showing all these 687 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 19: photos of these these children who allegedly are victims of famine, 688 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 19: but every single one of them is suffering from some 689 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 19: muscular disease which causes them to have, you know, an 690 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 19: appearance that. 691 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 12: Might be misconstrudism. And Barry took that. 692 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 19: The free press took that narrative apart so expertly, and 693 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 19: they do things like that that really cut through so 694 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 19: much of the mediables shit, and it provides such a 695 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:02,240 Speaker 19: valuable service. 696 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 12: And I'm so. 697 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 19: Happy for Barry, and I'm so happy for all of 698 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 19: the liberal tiers. 699 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 12: That I have been, you know, and I want more 700 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 12: of them. 701 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 11: They give me life, they energize us. Yes, there's there 702 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 11: are a life source. So yeah, I mean the free 703 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 11: press kind of strikes me almost as like a right 704 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 11: of center or maybe just center. I mean it, I 705 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 11: do think they do. They try and kind of go 706 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 11: right down the middle, like almost like. 707 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 1: An NPR vibe. But it's just like right down the set. 708 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: It's kind of thoughtful. 709 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 11: It's it's it's written by educated people but that haven't 710 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 11: lost their damn minds. 711 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, it's not a rabid right wing or 712 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 19: left it's it really is a centrist publication, and it's 713 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 19: I really think that, like the real silent majority in 714 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 19: our country is just normal people don't want a screamer 715 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 19: on either end. 716 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I agree. 717 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 11: I mean listen as a as a as a hardened 718 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 11: partisan who has a very clear vision for what I 719 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 11: want to happen in this country. I can appreciate the 720 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 11: fact that we need centrist voices to sort of call 721 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 11: balls and strikes even you know, speaking of which, you know, 722 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,800 Speaker 11: Tom Cotton is a guy that we have serious foreign 723 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:16,800 Speaker 11: policy disagreements. I mean, Tom Cotton hasn't seen a foreign conflict. 724 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 11: He doesn't think American needs to bomb or you know, invade. 725 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 11: But Tom Cotton is really good on crime. He's really 726 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 11: good on domestic crime issues. And he, by the way, 727 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 11: he's going to be proven right and vindicated on some 728 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 11: of the stuff that happened even in Trump one point zero, 729 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 11: I think. But so this all started, Now go back, 730 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 11: We got a minute a half here, John, What was 731 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 11: this op ed that kind of started this whole domino 732 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 11: effect with Tom Cotton. 733 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 19: Tom cotton op ed was I believe was called send 734 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 19: in the troops, and it was calling on President Trump 735 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 19: in the first term to send in the National Guard 736 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:55,240 Speaker 19: to quel BLM rioting in American cities. And this caused 737 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 19: I think Barry may have already left the New York 738 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 19: Times by this point, but it caused this firestorm in 739 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 19: the newsroom about this is putting black people in danger, 740 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 19: and Nicole Hannah Jones of sixteen nineteen fame led the 741 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 19: charge to and to criticize the paper publicly, this public 742 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 19: staff revolt, and the Times, after initially defending the op ed, 743 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 19: did a complete one to eighty. I think there's now 744 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 19: an editor's note that's longer than the op ed. It's 745 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 19: still online. I heard you all to google it and 746 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 19: they ultimately ended up like getting rid of several people 747 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:35,280 Speaker 19: in the OP ED department and not even conservatives. I uh, 748 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 19: I forget his name, but the the OpEd end of 749 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 19: the time had to go. He went to the economist 750 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 19: and Adam Rubinstein was a great guy. He was forced 751 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 19: out and it. 752 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: Was all pretty pressable. 753 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 12: Yeah, and it was. 754 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 19: It was this weird seminal moment which no one even 755 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 19: really remembers anymore. 756 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: But no, it was.

I don't 816 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,320 Speaker 11: know that we've ever had a Washington Free Beacon reporter 817 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 11: on the show, and today we have two. 818 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: I don't know how that works. 819 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 7: Well, I don't know how that works. 820 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, but you beat him, John, This is we pre 821 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 11: recorded that, but you somehow managed to beat him, so 822 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 11: you can rub that in his face. So, John, I 823 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 11: wanted to also talk to you about this because you're 824 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 11: in media, you're in speech. Your whole I mean, are 825 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 11: your institution is enshrined in the constitution. And our friends 826 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 11: from across the pond are having quite a little blow up. 827 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 11: A comedian, Graham Linehan was arrested when he gets back 828 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 11: into the UK at the airport by five armed officers 829 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 11: and apparently this is for his anti transgender comments that 830 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 11: he's made three tweets in particular. We can bring up 831 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 11: first thoughts, why is this such a big deal? Explain 832 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 11: in what's happening here? 833 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 12: John, I mean, he went against the Wolke orthodoxies. 834 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,359 Speaker 19: He tweeted critically of trans and he was met at 835 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 19: the airport by five five armed security guards who proceeded 836 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 19: to take him into custody. I mean, this is This 837 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 19: is exactly what Vice President Vance was talking about when 838 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 19: he went to Europe. There is a crisis in free 839 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 19: speech and free expression out there. You know, we have 840 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 19: a First Amendment in our country. We take that for granted. 841 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 19: They don't have those protections in Europe. You make a 842 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 19: tweet that the board of Twitter doesn't like. You're in 843 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 19: England or something, and you get arrested. And while this 844 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 19: is happening, mind you, churches are being burned down in 845 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 19: England and across the continent of Europe and we never 846 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 19: hear about it. There are grooming gangs running wild in 847 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 19: the UK which are only rarely ever reported on, and 848 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 19: only a great effort and official authorities try to obfuscate 849 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 19: news about that coming out. 850 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 11: You know you have John, John, let me let me pause. 851 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 11: Youre right there, because again you're the media expert here. 852 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 11: This story was the grooming gang specifically was was largely 853 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 11: an Elon Musk enterprise to kind of popularize it, but 854 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 11: there was reporting on that. Explain some of these brave 855 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 11: people within the UK that have that have been trying 856 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 11: to blow the whistle on this. 857 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 19: For you will of ordinary people to report on things 858 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 19: like rooming gangs and the church fires, and a lot 859 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 19: of other issues happening in Europe is out there. It's 860 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 19: just the official institutions make it so so difficult, and 861 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 19: even just to get things like court records in the 862 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 19: UK are so much more difficult than in the United States. 863 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 19: They make it very very hard to just get the 864 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 19: fundamental pieces and you can't run out with stuff you 865 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 19: don't know. But they make it very very hard to 866 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 19: get official confirmation on anything, and the authorities appear to 867 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 19: go to great lengths to defend or at least for 868 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 19: shield from accountability, while five armed officers are arresting a. 869 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,720 Speaker 12: Comedian for tweets. 870 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 19: So it's a it's England is in a very very 871 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 19: bad way, and it really you know, I love the 872 00:44:59,320 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 19: United Kingdom. 873 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 12: I'm a huge anglophile.

That is 909 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 11: a uniquely American phenomenon, by the way, where we take 910 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 11: things into our own hands. When when we settled the West, 911 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 11: we didn't have, you know, institutions there to protect us. 912 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 11: People took their own initiative to protect their communities.

But first I want to 945 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 20: just kind of give you a chance to introduce yourself. 946 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:44,040 Speaker 20: You're an investigative reporter with the Washington Freebeacon and you 947 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 20: went to Yale. 948 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:45,919 Speaker 2: I did. 949 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 6: I did. 950 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 20: So you go to Yale and you don't end up 951 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 20: with The New York Times. 952 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 6: Correct. 953 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 22: So I came into Yale moderate Democrat and then kind 954 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,880 Speaker 22: of went through a series of sort of incremental radical 955 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 22: moments that pushed me. I don't know how far right 956 00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 22: they pushed me, but they definitely pushed me further and 957 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 22: further right, And by twenty twenty I certainly felt more 958 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 22: comfortable within right wing institutions than left wing ones. 959 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,240 Speaker 20: What were those radicalizing events? 960 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, so, I mean there were really two at Yale. 961 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,959 Speaker 22: The first is that yalees the think call the Yeopolitical Union, 962 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,840 Speaker 22: which comprised of all these little kind of debating societies 963 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 22: political parties. And I came in thinking, well, I'm a 964 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,399 Speaker 22: moderate Democrat, so I'll join the Party of the Left right. 965 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,279 Speaker 22: That's what good Democrats do. But their first resolution of 966 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 22: the term was resolved abolished the police. And this was 967 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 22: in twenty fourteen, mind you, so kind of a little 968 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 22: before before Michael Brown. It was, yeah, I think it 969 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 22: was before. Yes, it was before Michael Brown. So at 970 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 22: the time I just thought, well, that's stupid. No one's 971 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 22: ever going to take that seriously, right, whereas or make 972 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 22: it policy? No, exactly. Whereas the whereas the Conservative Party, 973 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 22: which is another one of them, was debating resolved that 974 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 22: Socrates deserved to die. And I remember seeing that and 975 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 22: thinking that's interesting, and I've never thought to ask that question. 976 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 22: These guys seem cool, I'm gonna hang out. 977 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 20: With them, now, that's a much more thought provoking quo. 978 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 6: Exactly much so. 979 00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,320 Speaker 22: Right at the start, it just seemed like there was 980 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 22: a sort of vibrancy to the conservative intellectual scene that 981 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,879 Speaker 22: was lacking on the left. And then the second big 982 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 22: radicalizing moment was there were all these protests in twenty 983 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 22: fifteen over cultural appropriation Halloween costumes. There's a famous video 984 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,600 Speaker 22: in which, at the time he was an administrator, he 985 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 22: got encircled in the courtyard of one of the residential 986 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 22: colleges at Yale and basically accosted. I mean wasn't he 987 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 22: wasn't physically hurt, but he was surrounded by these jeering 988 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 22: students who were saying, you haven't made this a safe space. 989 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 6: You know, this is supposed to be a home. 990 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 22: Free speech doesn't matter, so on and so forth, and 991 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,719 Speaker 22: then things just kind of spiraled out of control from there. 992 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 22: And I guess the maybe sort of two point fifth 993 00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 22: radicalizing moment is that during that time, I was the 994 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 22: opinion editor of the Yale Daily News, the campus paper, 995 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 22: and so I had to sit there and field all 996 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 22: of the op eds from really, I mean, of all 997 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 22: sides of the campus debate, but from the protesters. And 998 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:15,279 Speaker 22: it's like, I remember sitting next to a girl editing 999 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 22: her piece that was literally arguing that demands for rational 1000 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 22: debate were a form of white supremacy designed to police 1001 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 22: the emotionality of women of color. And in some ways, 1002 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 22: the creepiest part of all this is that this girl 1003 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 22: had I had a class with her. She's not a 1004 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 22: dumb girl at all. She's very it's like in terms 1005 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 22: of just raw iq very smart. But she was saying 1006 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 22: this just absolute and I kind of had to sit 1007 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:41,760 Speaker 22: there and pretend that I thought it was a valuable 1008 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,280 Speaker 22: perspective and edit it and say yes, yes your voice matters, 1009 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,320 Speaker 22: and edit it make it better. But yeah, you know, 1010 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:52,919 Speaker 22: seeing up close what the alleged best and brightest actually thought, 1011 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,480 Speaker 22: uh was pretty radicalizing. 1012 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 20: And now she's probably like a circuit court judge or something. 1013 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 22: I yeah, I'm not sure exactly what she's doing now, 1014 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:02,760 Speaker 22: but I mean, I know she went to law school, 1015 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 22: so that's. 1016 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 6: You never know. 1017 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 20: Yeah, I know she's like an FBI agent or something, 1018 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 20: But no, that's that I think is an important thing 1019 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 20: to spend a little bit of time on is that 1020 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:16,719 Speaker 20: this was not University Wisconsin Madison. No offense to them, 1021 00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:19,760 Speaker 20: but this is this is the pipeline for our nation's 1022 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 20: decision makers. 1023 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:21,359 Speaker 6: Right right. 1024 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 22: There was the South Park episode that kind of made 1025 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 22: fun of you a little. 1026 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, no, I know it. 1027 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:28,799 Speaker 1: It was great. 1028 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,480 Speaker 6: Well, but was what I thought was funny? 1029 00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 22: You know that the students in that episode, the fake students, 1030 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 22: you know, are are trying to defend abortion rights or 1031 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 22: whatever and say kind of normal liberal things. Honestly, what 1032 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 22: they're saying in South Park, the kind of fake you know, 1033 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 22: parodies of liberal students, was a lot more reasonable than 1034 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,319 Speaker 22: what the kids at Yale were actually saying in twenty fifteen. Right, 1035 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 22: It's not like they were saying, well, you know, woman's 1036 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 22: right to choose and who are you to decide when 1037 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 22: life get No, I mean this was full on you know, 1038 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 22: you cannot debate any thing or disagree with any minority 1039 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,719 Speaker 22: or you're racist. I mean, and it really the sort 1040 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:08,920 Speaker 22: of Fox News caricature was in fact accurate. I mean, 1041 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 22: there really was no daylight between how I think kind 1042 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,799 Speaker 22: of conservative media portrayed those kids and how they were. 1043 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 20: It's horrifying because so many of them are now in 1044 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,239 Speaker 20: places of power. Has it gotten worse or better since 1045 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 20: twenty fourteen at Yale? 1046 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 22: I it probably, I would assume that in twenty twenty 1047 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 22: it got pretty bad. I think it kind of recovered 1048 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,239 Speaker 22: a bit post twenty fifteen. Then twenty twenty probably hit 1049 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:35,319 Speaker 22: in a year, and then you know, now with Trump 1050 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 22: in office, I expect that there is slightly more intellectual 1051 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 22: freedom in the classroom. I do get the sense conservative 1052 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 22: kids on campus are a bit more involved in Yeah, 1053 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 22: I think so. I mean I would assume so. I 1054 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 22: will also tell you that the undergrad as bad as 1055 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,400 Speaker 22: that was, was never as crazy as Yea law school, 1056 00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 22: which went through a period of just absolute insanity. Where 1057 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 22: from what my friends who attend that it told me, 1058 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 22: it really was like Sophia Communist. 1059 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:04,279 Speaker 20: I know you're not a Yale historian, but I mean 1060 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:05,800 Speaker 20: you do know the institution. Well, I mean William F. 1061 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,000 Speaker 20: Buckey obviously wrote you know god Man and Yale. I 1062 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 20: think that was the title. Yeah, yeah, what where did where? 1063 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 20: For our audience, it doesn't quite follow this, but knows 1064 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 20: it's a problem. Where did this come from? Why is 1065 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 20: it that Yale would get to a place where you 1066 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 20: have to feel an op ed or someone says I wrote, 1067 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:28,440 Speaker 20: I wrote down like that that basically I can't I 1068 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,720 Speaker 20: should be able to dismiss or have a higher elevation 1069 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 20: of my opinion based solely on immutable characteristics. Where where 1070 00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 20: does that come from? 1071 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 1: And how is that? 1072 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 20: Why has that been taken seriously at our nation's e last? 1073 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean that's obviously. 1074 00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:45,359 Speaker 22: I mean we could have an hour or two hour 1075 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:46,839 Speaker 22: conversation just about that question. 1076 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 6: I will say. What I observed was that. 1077 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 22: It was not the majority of students who actually believed that, 1078 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 22: but there was a kind of massive preference falsification. 1079 00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:58,399 Speaker 20: So one of what does that mean? 1080 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 22: So people would pretend to go along with it, right, 1081 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 22: and would never and I think pretend to leave it. 1082 00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 22: And one very illustrative example is that as the opinion 1083 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:10,759 Speaker 22: editor of the y d N, I also had to 1084 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 22: write sort of the editorial that was the paper's position, 1085 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 22: and we would have meetings where we would decide what 1086 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:21,399 Speaker 22: the paper's position should be. And during the meeting where 1087 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,879 Speaker 22: we were supposed to decide what to say about the protests, 1088 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,840 Speaker 22: it became clear right away that if you spoke up 1089 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:28,399 Speaker 22: and said Hey, I think this is going too far. 1090 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 22: What about free speech? You were going to immediately be 1091 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 22: shouted down as a racist, and so no one did. 1092 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,319 Speaker 22: But I had people come up to me afterwards and say, 1093 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 22: after we had basically democratically quote unquote decided to vote 1094 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 22: vote to endorse the protests, a lot of people told me, Look, 1095 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:45,800 Speaker 22: I didn't really agree with that. I have issues with 1096 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 22: the protests, but I felt like I couldn't speak. 1097 00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1098 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 22: I remember one girl in particular literally said that almost 1099 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:51,640 Speaker 22: verbatim to me. 1100 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 20: So much of this is just third grade peer pressure 1101 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 20: that just gets elevated to yeah, and that's shouldn't be 1102 00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 20: too surprising. 1103 00:55:58,600 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 22: And you mentioned the New York Times earlier. I mean 1104 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 22: some of these students without naming names, did in fact 1105 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 22: go on to work at the New York Times or 1106 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 22: the Watching the Most Right, which yes, right, which then 1107 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,960 Speaker 22: cou Right Right, which then like five years later had 1108 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 22: its own kind of struggle sessions during George Floyd. 1109 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 20: So yeah, I mean, that's so talk more about that again. 1110 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:14,439 Speaker 12: I didn't. 1111 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 20: I don't want spend too much on this, but what 1112 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 20: they do in the college campus doesn't stay there. It 1113 00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 20: metastasizes into the next institution. 1114 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 22: Yes, yes, it metastasizes into media, and medicine is another 1115 00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 22: big one. I mean all of them really corporate America. 1116 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:31,320 Speaker 22: But I think medicine, uh is, that is a story 1117 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,279 Speaker 22: that has not fully, I think, been been appreciated. 1118 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 6: Just how how so I did a lot of reporting. 1119 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 20: In we have these stories, by the way, yeah so, 1120 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 20: but keep going, Yeah. 1121 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 22: So I had a lot of did a lot of 1122 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,839 Speaker 22: reporting in late twenty twenty twenty one, early twenty twenty 1123 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,360 Speaker 22: two about the effort to ration COVID drugs based on 1124 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 22: the race. 1125 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 20: Right here, it's one of your best, by the way, 1126 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 20: you deserve huge credit.

We came 1181 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 7: from the bottom and know we the loss to be 1182 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 7: showing what we need chose. If you keep the job, 1183 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 7: you got nothing to lose. 1184 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 22: These ideas about kind of race based redistribution that were 1185 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:11,960 Speaker 22: inculcating in the academy did not stay confined to a 1186 01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 22: critical race theory smin are at Harvard Law School. I mean, 1187 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:17,720 Speaker 22: they became government policy, and not just you know, a 1188 01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:20,320 Speaker 22: city or or a county, but in like multiple US 1189 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 22: states at least three, New York, Utah, and Minnesota all 1190 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 22: had these race conscious triage schemes where basically the way 1191 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 22: it worked was that if you were not white, you 1192 01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:37,440 Speaker 22: automatically got two extra points added to your COVID risk score, 1193 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 22: and two points was about the same weight they would 1194 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 22: give to things like obesity or diabetes, and so if 1195 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 22: you held everything else equal, the non white person was 1196 01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 22: going to win every time. And there was really very 1197 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 22: I mean, there was not any serious scientific argument that 1198 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 22: you know, this was an exact way to quantify risk, 1199 01:00:57,640 --> 01:01:00,560 Speaker 22: or that all non white people were really at, you know, 1200 01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 22: that much more risk of developing serious COVID. I mean, 1201 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 22: this was all nonsense. But they did it anyway, and 1202 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 22: they only stopped after I reported on it, and then 1203 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:13,440 Speaker 22: people threatened to sue them. 1204 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:15,600 Speaker 20: Yeah, I have the story. I mean, it's incredible. So 1205 01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 20: just to be clear that life saving COVID drugs were 1206 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:24,880 Speaker 20: given in a ration way against white people to prefer 1207 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:28,760 Speaker 20: black or Latino people or as they say, Latin ex 1208 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 20: ethnicity yep, yep. 1209 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,560 Speaker 22: And would I would note too that it literally in 1210 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 22: some of these schemes just lumped in every single person 1211 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:38,520 Speaker 22: who wasn't white, which, like, even if you thought that 1212 01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 22: maybe one particular racial group, for some genetic reason, was 1213 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:43,640 Speaker 22: at a much higher risk of COVID and there could 1214 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 22: be some reason why we really should take that into account, 1215 01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:50,680 Speaker 22: that's not what they were doing. They were just saying, well, 1216 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 22: all of these groups, which in fact had very different 1217 01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 22: rates of COVID mortality, they're all not white, so we'll 1218 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 22: just kind of create a category for non white. 1219 01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 20: Yeah, so it says here in your story. In Minnesota, 1220 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 20: health officials have devised their own ethical framework that prioritizes 1221 01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 20: black eighteen year olds over white sixty four year olds 1222 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,960 Speaker 20: for COVID drugs. Now, I think this was monoclonal antibodies, 1223 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 20: if I'm not mistaken, Yes, which actually was a very 1224 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 20: effective treatment. Remember this was in January twenty twenty two, 1225 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 20: so we're about a year and a half into the 1226 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:29,960 Speaker 20: whole thing, and monoclonal antibodies were very promising immediate developments 1227 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 20: to kind of to help. So this is not just 1228 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,280 Speaker 20: some trivial thing, but an eighteen year old black kid 1229 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 20: in downtown Minneapolis, like an eighteen year old Somalian kid, 1230 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:42,560 Speaker 20: could get monoclonal antibodies easier than a sixty four year 1231 01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 20: old veteran that fought in Vietnam. 1232 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:48,960 Speaker 22: Yeah, so holding constant all of their health conditions, right, 1233 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,880 Speaker 22: that's true. But of course the thing is that age 1234 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:55,200 Speaker 22: was the biggest predictor of COVID mortality by far. 1235 01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:56,959 Speaker 20: Yes, but they're using race. 1236 01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:58,560 Speaker 6: Yes, but they're so. 1237 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 20: I mean, I really wanted to well on this for 1238 01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 20: a second. How is this possible? I mean, how did 1239 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 20: we as a country, thankfully, I want to get into 1240 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 20: that in a second. Have we actually turned the page 1241 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:13,480 Speaker 20: on it? But this parasitic ideology, what do we want 1242 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 20: to call it, woke mind virus whatever, It went into 1243 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 20: medicine where we are less likely to give out life 1244 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:24,040 Speaker 20: saving drugs just because of some sort of oppression framework 1245 01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 20: we're working from. 1246 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 22: Yeah, I mean I think there's a lot of reasons 1247 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 22: why it became such a powerful force in medicine. One 1248 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,720 Speaker 22: of them is that the field of public health kind 1249 01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:36,720 Speaker 22: of from its inception, was based in sort of you 1250 01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 22: might call proto woke premisses, right, because the whole idea 1251 01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 22: behind public health, right is that there are social forces 1252 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:45,919 Speaker 22: that affect the spread of disease. Now, of course that's 1253 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:50,320 Speaker 22: true and uncontroversial at a sufficient level of generality. But 1254 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 22: you can see how if that's your mindset to look 1255 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:59,320 Speaker 22: for social forces that influence epidemiological patterns or influence the 1256 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 22: spread of disease, is you are going to be more 1257 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:07,120 Speaker 22: open to these kinds of DEI critical race theories that 1258 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 22: prescribe rationing drugs based on race. 1259 01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 20: Right. 1260 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 22: I think that's one reason, and then the other. And 1261 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:19,520 Speaker 22: again this is a little more speculative, but I get 1262 01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 22: the sense that to become a doctor you have to 1263 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:25,520 Speaker 22: jump through all of these coups, and it may select 1264 01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 22: for a certain kind of person who's smart, but perhaps 1265 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:31,600 Speaker 22: also somewhat conformist and just as willing to kind of 1266 01:04:31,640 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 22: do whatever the check whatever boxes they're told to check. 1267 01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,760 Speaker 22: And unlike say law, which has its own problems, but 1268 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,680 Speaker 22: at least in law, you know doing legal training. There's 1269 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,919 Speaker 22: some emphasis on getting the other side debating. There's nothing 1270 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:47,880 Speaker 22: like that in medicine. So I just think medicine hasn't 1271 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 22: developed really any antibodies against wocism. 1272 01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 20: How did you find this story? 1273 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:54,400 Speaker 6: Someone? 1274 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 22: I think it might have been Carol Markowitz, the journalist, 1275 01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 22: tweet it. Yeah, she tweeted about New York and I 1276 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 22: just thought, hu, I wonder if any other states are 1277 01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 22: doing this? 1278 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 6: And so I basically just started googling. 1279 01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 22: This was before chatch EPT, So I just started googling, 1280 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 22: trying to find other examples, and I found this is 1281 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:12,040 Speaker 22: perhaps the most scandalous part. 1282 01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 6: This is all public. I mean they didn't even try 1283 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 6: to hide it. 1284 01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 20: They thought, you know, it's just right. So the CDC 1285 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,800 Speaker 20: said high risk states that quote systemic health and social 1286 01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 20: inequities have put minorities at increased risk. So it's the 1287 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,800 Speaker 20: systemic racism is the reason why they're dying. 1288 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 22: Yeah, and there was also this this guidance the FDA 1289 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 22: put out that said race could be a risk factor. 1290 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 20: We're right back with Aaron. Let me know your thoughts 1291 01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:42,920 Speaker 20: on this episode. Freedom at Charliekirk dot com. 1292 01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,960 Speaker 16: As President Trump works to end deadly wars that are 1293 01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:00,800 Speaker 16: happening across the globe. He is simultaneously a war against 1294 01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:05,440 Speaker 16: narco terrorists in Latin America well. The Secretary of Defense 1295 01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:08,160 Speaker 16: Pete Hegsett and Secretary of State Marc or Rubio say 1296 01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:13,200 Speaker 16: that military operations against cartels will continue. Following Tuesday strike 1297 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 16: on a Venezuelan boat that was allegedly carrying illegal drugs. 1298 01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:20,440 Speaker 16: Eleven people were killed as the President and other top 1299 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 16: administration officials watched the order being carried out. 1300 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:26,200 Speaker 7: As you can see here, we're stealing the border. 1301 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,000 Speaker 17: But President Trump is willing to go on offense in 1302 01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 17: ways that others have not been and to send that 1303 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:35,439 Speaker 17: clear signal to Trende Aragua, Cartel del Souls and others 1304 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 17: emanating from Venezuela.

So that's that's just that's 1370 01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 20: just that's a statistical fact. 1371 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,479 Speaker 22: Yes, yes, And and there's also probably difference. I mean, 1372 01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:16,519 Speaker 22: it's also class differences, right of course, I'm not judging. 1373 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:17,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, like I think. 1374 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:19,600 Speaker 22: I Mean, one thing that's interesting is actually one of 1375 01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 22: the states, Utah, later claimed that one of the reasons 1376 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 22: they abandoned the scheme is that it wasn't even working 1377 01:10:25,439 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 22: to get the drugs to minorities and reading between the lines. 1378 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:30,920 Speaker 22: I well, right, and of course that wouldn't make it okay, 1379 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:31,320 Speaker 22: but the. 1380 01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:32,960 Speaker 20: Whole premise is so similar. 1381 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:36,240 Speaker 22: Yes, yes, yes, but I would just point out that, 1382 01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,439 Speaker 22: you know, it may well have been that the problem 1383 01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 22: here was that, you know, the people they wanted to 1384 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:43,719 Speaker 22: get the drugs to just weren't coming in the door, 1385 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:45,880 Speaker 22: and so all they really ended up doing was kind 1386 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:48,880 Speaker 22: of erecting barriers for white people. It didn't even do 1387 01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:51,920 Speaker 22: accomplished Utah, right. 1388 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 20: Right, Polynesian I mean they have like very small black population. 1389 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,840 Speaker 22: Yeah, I mean they're yeah, and if your goal was 1390 01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:02,720 Speaker 22: to reach them, there probably were ways you could have 1391 01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:04,760 Speaker 22: done it. But sort of this crude scheme of racial 1392 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,840 Speaker 22: preferences was not well, it's very. 1393 01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 20: I mean, this is somewhat of like a really cruel 1394 01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:13,200 Speaker 20: and dark thought experiment. You could imagine a philosophy professor 1395 01:11:13,320 --> 01:11:16,160 Speaker 20: or a morality ethics professor say, what if I had 1396 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,200 Speaker 20: a life saving drug, how should we distribute it to 1397 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:19,839 Speaker 20: the population? 1398 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? 1399 01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,120 Speaker 20: Yeah, Yeah, that's kind of what was on display, and 1400 01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:25,280 Speaker 20: he's like, let's have a discussion about it today. Yeah, 1401 01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:28,120 Speaker 20: and you see how that is actually put in practice, right, 1402 01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 20: And it was this fact sheet from what is so 1403 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:33,719 Speaker 20: Trova maab. 1404 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:35,719 Speaker 6: That's one of the monoclonal lange Okay, got it, Yeah. 1405 01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 20: Okay, got it. So you report this which is just 1406 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:44,280 Speaker 20: obviously like a ridiculous violation of the Civil Rights Act, right, 1407 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:47,240 Speaker 20: which has its problems, But and then they back off 1408 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:50,800 Speaker 20: and the Minnesota and Utah Health Utah that's a red state. 1409 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:57,519 Speaker 22: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's really amazing how even in 1410 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:01,000 Speaker 22: Red states this stuff has spread very far. You see 1411 01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:04,040 Speaker 22: this in universities too, where people have this idea that 1412 01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 22: the DEI programs are much worse at Ivy League schools 1413 01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:09,559 Speaker 22: than they are at you know, public schools and Red states. 1414 01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:10,599 Speaker 6: That is not true. 1415 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:14,320 Speaker 22: There's a great another journalist named John Saylor who's done 1416 01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 22: really good foil work foying just all of these red 1417 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:22,720 Speaker 22: state universities, and they put things in writing like, you know, 1418 01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 22: we don't want to hire a white man. I mean, 1419 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,519 Speaker 22: that's how exulted it is. And that's that's it in 1420 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:32,000 Speaker 22: Red states. So it's yes, it really any kind of 1421 01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:36,200 Speaker 22: This is a bit of an over generalization, but generally 1422 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:40,840 Speaker 22: institutions that are not directly subject to the levers of 1423 01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:44,840 Speaker 22: electoral power or that state governments have kind of taken 1424 01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:46,760 Speaker 22: a hands off approach to. 1425 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 12: That. 1426 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,800 Speaker 6: It got it hooks into all of them, right, is that? 1427 01:12:53,240 --> 01:12:56,880 Speaker 20: What? What is it about wokeism? I hate that term 1428 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:59,439 Speaker 20: because it's overused that it just has to keep on 1429 01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 20: in fact, thing has to keep on spreading. It's like, 1430 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:04,519 Speaker 20: you guys ConTroll enough already control high would you co 1431 01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:06,640 Speaker 20: throw the schools? You control the music, you control, you 1432 01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:08,960 Speaker 20: control the NFL, But you also have to control our 1433 01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:12,960 Speaker 20: monoclone antibody distribution. Right, It's like it's almost a It's 1434 01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:16,599 Speaker 20: like an Islamic umah. You know, the umah in Islamic 1435 01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:19,280 Speaker 20: theology is like the all covering of God. It's like 1436 01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 20: wocism must cover all society. 1437 01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:22,960 Speaker 1: Right. 1438 01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:25,360 Speaker 22: Well, I mean one thing about wocism is that it 1439 01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:30,600 Speaker 22: doesn't really acknowledge kind of a the distinction between the 1440 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:31,759 Speaker 22: public and private sphere. 1441 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:32,080 Speaker 8: Right. 1442 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,800 Speaker 22: You hear people say everything is political, right, and so 1443 01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:37,799 Speaker 22: all the institutions of civil society are seen as sites 1444 01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:41,200 Speaker 22: of political contestation. I think that's a big part of it. 1445 01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 22: Look another this is changing now, But for a while, 1446 01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 22: when civil rights law was exclusively really used by the 1447 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:55,640 Speaker 22: left as kind of a tool of social engineering, that 1448 01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:58,479 Speaker 22: was another thing, right, there were there were legal pressures 1449 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 22: that I think how help accelerate and reinforce the woke takeover. 1450 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:05,720 Speaker 22: I don't want to reduce it all to that, but 1451 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 22: like you know, hostile environment complaints, right, do you create 1452 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,040 Speaker 22: incentives for corporations to censor speech and to do these 1453 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:15,720 Speaker 22: sorts of trainings that morph into DEI I do think 1454 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:18,639 Speaker 22: that is changing now because there are new civil rights 1455 01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:21,200 Speaker 22: enforcers in town, and they have adopted a very different 1456 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:24,759 Speaker 22: interpretation of the civil rights laws. And so we're seeing 1457 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 22: now that the civil rights law does not necessarily have 1458 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 22: to lead to wokeness. But I think that until the 1459 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 22: rights sort of seesed the levers of the civil rights 1460 01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 22: state and started using it very aggressively, it just the 1461 01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:41,960 Speaker 22: civil rights bureaucracies were all populated by progressives and that 1462 01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:44,560 Speaker 22: was a big That was a big kind of bureaucratic 1463 01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 22: mechanism that puts. 1464 01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:48,400 Speaker 20: You Yeah, I mean, and part of the civil rights 1465 01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:52,200 Speaker 20: regime is built on disparate impact, which is yes, can 1466 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:53,200 Speaker 20: can you comment on that? 1467 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:54,080 Speaker 23: Yes? 1468 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,439 Speaker 22: I think that's a big problem. So for for many years, 1469 01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:00,120 Speaker 22: you know, although quotas were officially outlawed, there was this 1470 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:02,479 Speaker 22: concept called disparate impact, which is that if you do 1471 01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:06,840 Speaker 22: a kind of race blind test employment test, but it 1472 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 22: has a disparate impact, you know, more whites than blacks 1473 01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:15,040 Speaker 22: past the test, then the test unless you can prove, 1474 01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 22: like beyond a reasonable doubt basically that it is sort 1475 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:21,880 Speaker 22: of essential that it is like, you know, inextricably tied 1476 01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:25,040 Speaker 22: to the job qualification, so that this is really the 1477 01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:27,120 Speaker 22: only way to assess people unless you can prove that, 1478 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:31,680 Speaker 22: which is very high bar. The test was basically unlawful, right, 1479 01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:34,840 Speaker 22: and it was considered discriminatory. And now that is starting 1480 01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:38,360 Speaker 22: to be changed because President Trump is issued in executive 1481 01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 22: order revoking one of his most employabil YEP going after 1482 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 22: disparate impact. It's possible that some of those Supreme Court 1483 01:15:44,600 --> 01:15:47,679 Speaker 22: cases that kind of solidified this concept will get overturned, 1484 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:50,599 Speaker 22: depending on what the litigation is. But yeah, I mean 1485 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,000 Speaker 22: for many years there was this this phrase called goals 1486 01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 22: and timetables, where the government would say, well, you know, 1487 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 22: you don't have to you don't have to adopt quotas, 1488 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,920 Speaker 22: you just have to have goals and a timetable for 1489 01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:04,599 Speaker 22: reaching them, and you know, if you don't, that could 1490 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 22: be evidence of unlawful discriminat We're not saying it is evidence, 1491 01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:09,519 Speaker 22: it just could be. And so, of course in practice 1492 01:16:09,560 --> 01:16:11,360 Speaker 22: that means that you kind of do have to have 1493 01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 22: at least some approximate racial balance, which leads to some 1494 01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:18,320 Speaker 22: of these discriminatory policies. 1495 01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:20,880 Speaker 20: Continuing on the whole medical theme, you have another story 1496 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 20: that was published in May of last year, which is 1497 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:28,840 Speaker 20: a failed medical school how racial preferences supposedly outlawed in 1498 01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:31,800 Speaker 20: California have persisted at UCLA. Yes, so this is kind 1499 01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:34,799 Speaker 20: of connecting. This is a what happened at UCLA. 1500 01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:41,000 Speaker 22: Yeah, so at UCLA, to my knowledge, this is maybe 1501 01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 22: the first time this has ever happened. That multiple members 1502 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:48,280 Speaker 22: of the admissions committee basically came to me and told 1503 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 22: me anonymously about the affirmative action they were doing, and 1504 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:57,519 Speaker 22: provided various emails and even some internal data that kind 1505 01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:01,120 Speaker 22: of backed up that there was a lot of racial. 1506 01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:01,720 Speaker 6: Preferences going on. 1507 01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:06,600 Speaker 22: And the reason they came forward was that they I 1508 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,000 Speaker 22: just thought it was intrinsically unjust, but be they were 1509 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 22: really worried because they were seeing medical students start to 1510 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:17,640 Speaker 22: really fail basic tests of medical competence and show up 1511 01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 22: to their clinical rotations not knowing anything, not knowing anything. 1512 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:24,040 Speaker 22: That's what one of them told me, almost verbatim. And 1513 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 22: I would note that none of the whistleblowers, I would say, 1514 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:32,559 Speaker 22: struck me as particularly conservative. I mean, I don't think 1515 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:37,519 Speaker 22: anyone involved in this story, no, no one was worried 1516 01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 22: about this was wearing a mega hat. I'm sure they 1517 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:41,719 Speaker 22: all voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are almost 1518 01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 22: all of them did, right, But they were worried because 1519 01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:47,640 Speaker 22: they just saw kids showing up and they couldn't, you know, 1520 01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 22: name basic arteries and stuff. 1521 01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:50,679 Speaker 6: And they were. 1522 01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 22: Right right, and they were failing these things called the 1523 01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 22: shelf exams, which you take after each clinical rotation. There 1524 01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:03,000 Speaker 22: were some cohorts where like fifty percent of the kids 1525 01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 22: would fail, and that that had never happened before. There 1526 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:09,080 Speaker 22: was a huge spike in the failure rate on these exams. 1527 01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 22: And this all happened after a kind of new Dean 1528 01:18:12,960 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 22: of Admissions came in and really pushed the DEI very aggressively. 1529 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:22,040 Speaker 20: So your reporting says up to half of UCLA medical 1530 01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 20: students now fail basic test well of medical. 1531 01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:29,960 Speaker 22: Com Yeah, it's not half of all UCLA medical students. 1532 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 22: What it is is basically there in each clinical rotation. 1533 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:38,040 Speaker 22: It's a little hard to eximent. Basically, basically, there were 1534 01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 22: certain classes at UCLA, certain rotations where like half of 1535 01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:46,000 Speaker 22: the kids and that small cohort were failing, and you know, 1536 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:49,680 Speaker 22: and then you also see that the overall failure rate 1537 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:52,320 Speaker 22: goes from like very low to something closer to like 1538 01:18:52,360 --> 01:18:53,559 Speaker 22: twenty or twenty five percent. 1539 01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:55,040 Speaker 6: So there's a change over time. 1540 01:18:56,439 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 22: So you know, look, probably the average graduate of UCLA 1541 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:01,840 Speaker 22: Medical schoo is still very good, but there are far 1542 01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:04,080 Speaker 22: more people who are not up to snuff than there 1543 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:07,160 Speaker 22: used to be. And that's really what those statistics are captual. 1544 01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:08,679 Speaker 20: What are the implications of those. 1545 01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:11,439 Speaker 6: I mean, well, you know the obvious one as well. 1546 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:14,720 Speaker 20: You know, someone they take through and then they take 1547 01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:15,479 Speaker 20: your appendix. 1548 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:18,960 Speaker 22: Yeah, you know, that's the kind of here, that's the 1549 01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:21,160 Speaker 22: nightmare scenario. I mean, I mean, the other thing that 1550 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:23,640 Speaker 22: may happen is that some of the folks graduated, they 1551 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:26,920 Speaker 22: may be good enough to be very basic kind of 1552 01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:30,759 Speaker 22: primary care doctors and competent at sort of more basic 1553 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:33,240 Speaker 22: fields of medicine, but they're not going to go into 1554 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:37,559 Speaker 22: high level research. And the problem with that is part 1555 01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:40,400 Speaker 22: of how medicine advances and and what these schools are 1556 01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:43,000 Speaker 22: supposed to do is to be engines of medical innovation. 1557 01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 6: And so if all of the. 1558 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:51,280 Speaker 22: Schools do this sort of heavy affirmative action and fewer 1559 01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:56,360 Speaker 22: and fewer of the graduates are really qualified to do 1560 01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:59,400 Speaker 22: the kind of cutting edge research that pushes the frontiers 1561 01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:03,160 Speaker 22: of medicine, you know, you may not see it's not 1562 01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:05,640 Speaker 22: necessarily that the surgeons are going to like kill you. 1563 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:07,160 Speaker 22: I mean, that might happen, but I think that's that's 1564 01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:09,920 Speaker 22: probably not really the main concern, at least in the 1565 01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:13,160 Speaker 22: immediate term. That the deeper concern is that you just 1566 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:16,680 Speaker 22: see this kind of slow and hard to quantify, but 1567 01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:21,599 Speaker 22: nonetheless very real decline in kind of the quality of academy. 1568 01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:22,920 Speaker 20: I mean, but we all see it. I mean, I 1569 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:26,040 Speaker 20: have friends in Cedar Sinai Hospital and they might have 1570 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:28,920 Speaker 20: graduates from the UCLA Medical School. Is the usal and 1571 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:31,160 Speaker 20: medical school good? Is it considered to be competitive? 1572 01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:35,280 Speaker 6: It's considered very competitive, Yes, and so I've. 1573 01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:37,559 Speaker 20: Seen it theater Sidam. Some of these nurses are kind 1574 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 20: of like space cadets at times. I don't want to 1575 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:42,679 Speaker 20: insult them, you have to wonder, I mean, and everybody 1576 01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 20: knows this that the quality of hospital care has gone 1577 01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:48,200 Speaker 20: down in the last twenty years. It's just just anecdotally. 1578 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:48,880 Speaker 23: Yeah. 1579 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:50,600 Speaker 22: And the other thing I would say too, that that 1580 01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 22: there's another dynamic here, which is maybe only say twenty 1581 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,000 Speaker 22: percent of the kids are really struggling and the rest 1582 01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:58,400 Speaker 22: are fine. But because you don't want to flunk those 1583 01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:01,519 Speaker 22: bottom twenty percent, you have to make the classes easier 1584 01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:04,479 Speaker 22: for everyone to avoid the post twenty percent flunking out. 1585 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:07,519 Speaker 22: And so the pop kids don't get the same quality 1586 01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 22: of education. So they might still be good, but they 1587 01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:11,439 Speaker 22: won't be as good. 1588 01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:18,360 Speaker 10: One hundred percent American made. 1589 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:20,519 Speaker 8: They aren't proud of it. 1590 01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 4: The Charlie Kirk Show. 1591 01:21:24,800 --> 01:21:29,040 Speaker 20: Okay, everyone, Americafest is coming.

That's real money flowing in 1635 01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:07,240 Speaker 20: the small businesses like Arizona Taco King, who went viral 1636 01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:09,760 Speaker 20: on TikTok and hit one point three million dollars in 1637 01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 20: sales in their first year. Now they're hiring more staff 1638 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,200 Speaker 20: just to keep up. Or Bluff Cakes, who started as 1639 01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 20: a home baking side hustle and became a national cookie brand, 1640 01:24:19,360 --> 01:24:22,000 Speaker 20: or she Mechanic, whose business is tripled in just one 1641 01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:26,080 Speaker 20: year with help from TikTok. TikTok is helping small businesses thrive, 1642 01:24:26,160 --> 01:24:28,599 Speaker 20: and that's adding up to more jobs, more growth. Over 1643 01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:31,880 Speaker 20: twenty four billion dollars flowing into the US economy go 1644 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,960 Speaker 20: to TikTok economic impact dot com. That is TikTok economic 1645 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,920 Speaker 20: impact dot com. You have to wonder, I mean, and 1646 01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:42,160 Speaker 20: everybody knows this that the quality of hospital care has 1647 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:45,400 Speaker 20: gone down the last twenty years. It's just just anecdotally. 1648 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:46,080 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1649 01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:47,640 Speaker 22: And the other thing I would say to you that 1650 01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:51,639 Speaker 22: there's another dynamic here, which is maybe only say, twenty 1651 01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:53,200 Speaker 22: percent of the kids are really struggling and the rest 1652 01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,599 Speaker 22: are fine. But because you don't want to flunk those 1653 01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:58,719 Speaker 22: bottom twenty percent, you have to make the classes easier 1654 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:01,680 Speaker 22: for everyone to avoid the bottom twenty percent flunking out. 1655 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:04,679 Speaker 22: And so the pop kids don't get the same quality 1656 01:25:04,720 --> 01:25:07,559 Speaker 22: of education. So they might still be good, but they 1657 01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:09,880 Speaker 22: won't be as good, right, And so there's this kind 1658 01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:14,680 Speaker 22: of progressive mediocritization of the medical profession driven by this 1659 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,200 Speaker 22: sort of bottom twenty percent dragging kids. 1660 01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:19,000 Speaker 20: So I got I have to read this. This is 1661 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:20,240 Speaker 20: this is one of my favorite paragraphs. 1662 01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:20,760 Speaker 4: I just saw this. 1663 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:25,120 Speaker 20: Led by Lucero, who you introduced earlier in the piece. 1664 01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:29,280 Speaker 20: She also serves or I think it's as the I 1665 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:33,000 Speaker 20: think she right as the vice chair of the Equity, 1666 01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:38,280 Speaker 20: Diversity and Inclusion of UCLA's Anesthesiology department. So let me 1667 01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 20: just understand. So the practice of administering general anesthesia, which 1668 01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:46,960 Speaker 20: is incredibly important. People die way too much, and thankfully 1669 01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 20: we're one of the leaders in the world. What is 1670 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:53,400 Speaker 20: the is the Admissions committee routinely gives black and Latino 1671 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:56,639 Speaker 20: applicants a pass for subpar metrics. For people who served 1672 01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 20: on it said, while whites and Asians need perfect scores 1673 01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:01,400 Speaker 20: to be considered. What is the like steal man that 1674 01:26:01,520 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 20: argument for me? Why does an anesthesiology department need a 1675 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 20: DEI office? 1676 01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:09,160 Speaker 6: That argument's pretty hard to steal man. 1677 01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:11,639 Speaker 20: I mean, I mean at some point, I mean, you're 1678 01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 20: super smart, you went to Yale, You're part of the 1679 01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:16,840 Speaker 20: debate club. What is the argument for that? We're trying 1680 01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,160 Speaker 20: to figure out, you know, we need your body weight 1681 01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:20,640 Speaker 20: when you to figure out how long you know, the 1682 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:24,400 Speaker 20: mixture of these very very powerful chemicals. 1683 01:26:25,720 --> 01:26:30,200 Speaker 22: The argument you would hear is that somehow the white 1684 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:34,720 Speaker 22: anesthesiologist we have implicit bias, and so if we don't 1685 01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:36,840 Speaker 22: correct the implicit biases, we won't really get the most 1686 01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:38,240 Speaker 22: qualified anesthesiologists. 1687 01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:40,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, look like it's it's silly. 1688 01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:43,560 Speaker 20: So it's silly, It's just it just collapses. But this 1689 01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:48,640 Speaker 20: you pointed on something so implicit bias. That would be 1690 01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:50,640 Speaker 20: their argument probably, or the argument would be like, hey, 1691 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:52,960 Speaker 20: a white anesthesiologists, they don't know the struggle of a 1692 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:55,560 Speaker 20: black woman they're about to put under, and so you 1693 01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 20: know she needs someone that knows the struggle of being 1694 01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:00,320 Speaker 20: a black one. I'm sorry, you're administering drug to go 1695 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:01,800 Speaker 20: under surgery? Don't you want the best? 1696 01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:02,599 Speaker 23: Yeah? 1697 01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:05,360 Speaker 20: I mean, but definitionally, don't you want you can die 1698 01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:08,000 Speaker 20: under general anesthesia? It's very high stakes? 1699 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,400 Speaker 22: Yes, yes, I mean, And this has always been the 1700 01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:14,200 Speaker 22: kind of canonical argument against racial preferences, right, well, do 1701 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:16,040 Speaker 22: you know, do you care if your surgeon is black? 1702 01:27:16,080 --> 01:27:17,000 Speaker 20: But it's in front of us? 1703 01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 7: I mean, you know. 1704 01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:22,639 Speaker 22: There's another detail in the story where she apparently, according 1705 01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:26,559 Speaker 22: to at least one or two people, said that when 1706 01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:28,720 Speaker 22: they do residency admissions, which is a different thing that's 1707 01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 22: for when they're actually admitting basically like trainy doctors who 1708 01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 22: already graduated medical school, they have this sort of rank 1709 01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:36,360 Speaker 22: list of who they want to admit, and she advocated 1710 01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:42,280 Speaker 22: for bumping a white candidate down many slots because she thought, wow, 1711 01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:45,880 Speaker 22: we already have you know, enough white people, and I don't. 1712 01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:48,800 Speaker 22: I think that ultimately was reversed, but still, I mean, 1713 01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:51,880 Speaker 22: she was explicitly saying, we should, you know, move the 1714 01:27:52,280 --> 01:27:54,640 Speaker 22: rank of different candidates around based on race, to do 1715 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:58,080 Speaker 22: you and these and the residents would be actually performing anesthesiology. 1716 01:27:58,360 --> 01:28:00,360 Speaker 20: So yeah, I just again, of all, the place of 1717 01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:02,080 Speaker 20: de I office.
