WEBVTT - Libs Gone Wild 0:00:00.560 --> 0:00:05.080 Inflation is at forty year highs gas has doubled since 0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:09.360 Joe Biden took office. Drag queens are dancing for little 0:00:09.440 --> 0:00:13.520 kids at gay bars in Dallas. Crime is through the 0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:18.360 roof in cities around the country. People are pushing back 0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:22.480 against the Democrats who are running all of these things. 0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:25.160 But what's worthy of note here is that it's not 0:00:25.200 --> 0:00:28.639 just us pushing back. It's not just the Conservatives and 0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:32.319 the Republicans. On issue after issue, city after city, all 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:35.400 the way up to the federal level. You've got Democrats 0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:38.960 pushing back against the Democrat ruling class as they see 0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:42.520 them headed for disaster in the elections. This is Verdict 0:00:42.520 --> 0:00:52.280 with Ted Cruz. This episode A Verdict with Ted Cruze 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:54.400 is brought to you by Matt Walsh's new film, the 0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.560 New Daily Wire documentary What Is a Woman. I've been 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:00.120 waiting for this film since the day Matt announced it, 0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:04.240 and it does not disappoint. Radical gender ideology is corrupting 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:07.000 our nation right now. It's seeping into our children's classrooms 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:11.440 as young as kindergarten and preschool. It's even poisoned corporate culture. 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:15.040 We see Disney and their queerness agenda that they're inserting 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:18.040 into their children's programming. This has become a cultural phenomenon 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:22.000 that is assaulting women, that is trying to erase biological women. 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.880 And so Matt Walsh is fighting this fight. He goes 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:28.039 on a global on a world tour, asking a very 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:32.039 simple question, what is a woman. And fortunately he took 0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:33.280 a film crew with him, so we all get to 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:34.959 come on this journey with him, and you will be 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:38.000 shocked to hear how many people can't answer what you 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:40.560 would think is a very simple question, or they have 0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:43.000 a very warped, twisted idea of what a woman is. 0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:45.440 The leftist in this film actually admit to Matt Walsh 0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:49.000 what their ulterior motive is, what their underlying agenda is. 0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:51.600 You will laugh, you will cry, you will scream, probably 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.240 all at once.

Welcome back to Verdicts 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:32.880 with Ted Cruz. There is so much to get to, 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.680 Senator that I need your thoughts on. But before I 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.400 get to any of that, did I see you on 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:42.400 TV playing poker with some of the best poker players 0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:45.040 in the world. EU did, and it was one of 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:49.360 the coolest things ever. I played in Poker after Dark, 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:52.679 so I will say I was like Doyle and Phil 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:56.240 I was giddy about. I was like, this was a 0:04:56.320 --> 0:05:00.799 bucket list thing. I told my daughters we were fourteen 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.080 and eleven, and they're like, yeah, yeah, whatever, okay, some 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:06.920 poker players, What's what's the big deal? I told them 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:09.600 mister Beast is going to be there, and my girls 0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:13.920 lost their minds, like mister be Like, so both girls 0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:18.320 flew to Vegas to meet mister Beast. I mean, I mean, 0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:22.120 it was. Look being in the Senate, it's hard to 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:26.160 do anything that seems remotely cool to a fourteen year 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.000 old or an eleven year old, especially a fourteen year old, 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:32.719 but for them to meet mister Beast, they thought it 0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.120 was the coolest thing ever. And so I played poker. 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.960 They put out the first episode, so the game we 0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:41.760 played for a couple hours. They chopped it into three episodes, 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.440 so part one has come out already, but there'll be 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:47.440 two more parts. And it was it was pretty awesome. Well, 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.440 I am glad that you could be a cool guy 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:51.599 now for your daughters. That's always it's always something you 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:53.440 strive for as a parent. You want to seem like 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:56.240 a cool guy. I do have this question on poker, though, 0:05:56.480 --> 0:06:00.560 which is I know you love poker. There have been 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:04.479 another a number of other politicians and statesmen who have 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:09.839 famously loved poker. Is there something is there something about 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:13.679 poker that just speaks to a political kind of spirit? 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:15.520 What is it about poker that draws you to it? 0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:18.040 Because you're not You're not the first guy I've I've 0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:21.480 known who who is so into it. So poker is 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:27.200 people um, and it's it's it's interesting you know you 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:31.719 look at so you play poker, Poker is math. It's 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.520 knowing what the odds are. It's knowing what cards you 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:36.479 have and what are the odds and how many outs 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.040 you have, And the math is important. But what I 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:42.799 like about poker is it's reading people and it's trying 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.720 to understand the person sitting across the table from you. 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.560 What do they have? Are they telling you the truth 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:53.120 or lying? Are they bluffing? Um? And it's so I've 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:56.440 got a number of really close friends who enjoy playing poker, 0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:58.320 and we played poker for years, and and one of 0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:00.160 my closest friends, the guy who was a grown him 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:03.320 my wedding, is a semi professional poker player and he's 0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:06.240 played multiple times in the World Series. He's actually made 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:09.159 a final table at the World Series, not in the 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:11.400 main event, but I think the two thousand Texas hold 0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:15.440 him event. And he and I have played a gazillion times, 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.120 and we both He's beaten me a bunch of times, 0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:21.120 I've beaten him a bunch of times. We've spent a 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:24.600 lot of hours around the poker table. What's interesting is 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:29.960 that he is, in terms of the math, clearly a 0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:32.640 better poker player. Than I am. I can do the math, 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.000 but I don't study it to the level of know 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:38.840 it to the precision that he does. I spend much 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:42.240 more time reading the players, and so we'll have hands 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.160 where I'll beat him and it'll be like, what the 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:47.880 hell were you doing? That made no sense? Why would 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:50.720 you call me there? And I answer it because you 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:55.960 didn't want me to. It may not have it may 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.040 not have made sense. If you'd had the cards, it 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:01.040 would have been a terrible call. But I knew you 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.440 didn't want me to. You wanted me to lay down 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:05.800 my cards, which is why I called you, which is 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:07.560 why I took your damn money. So hand me your 0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:12.760 chips and look. Sometimes you get the read wrong, sometimes 0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:15.040 you don't. You know, you think you know what's and 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:19.680 obviously that's part of what makes poker fun, is projecting weakness, 0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:26.680 projecting you know you're trying to fool the other players. 0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:31.200 But it's I grew up, Actually I learned to play 0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:38.960 poker's a little kid. My grandmother, my mother's mother, Irish 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:44.000 Italian grandmother, great card player. She played bridge every week 0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:49.200 for probably seventy years. But she would would baby sit 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.160 me when I was a little kid. When I was 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.360 eight ten years old, my parents would drop me off 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:57.000 at my grandparents for them to babysit me. And my 0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:59.240 grandmother would sit down and taught me to play poker. 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.080 And she had a medal ten of buttons, and we 0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:06.960 would play with buttons as chips, and some of the 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.640 buttons were costume jewelry and it was like fake diamonds. 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:11.600 So I'd like take the fake diamond and say one 0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:13.720 million dollars, and I just you know, make up whatever 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:17.000 it was, you know, if they looked fancy and we're glittery, 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:20.800 and I always would win. As a little kid, I 0:09:20.800 --> 0:09:22.880 would win and I would win and I would win, 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.679 and I felt pretty good about myself. And when I 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:27.800 was I don't know, about ten years old, I came 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:31.360 and said, hey, granny, let's play for real money. And 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:35.920 she said, okay, sure, And I had five dollars, which 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.600 five dollars at the time, my allowance was fifty cents 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:41.640 a week, so that was ten weeks allowance that I had. 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:44.400 And I sat down and played with her, and she 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.760 took every penny from me. She wiped me out. My 0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:51.120 mom came to pick me up, and I was crying. 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:53.320 As a ten year old. I was in tears, and 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:57.480 my grandmother's just cracking up laughing. You know what Irish 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:00.960 Italian grandmother said, gone home, Sonny, Well, welcome to the 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:04.520 big leagues. Two and a half months pay that that's 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:11.560 pretty tought. It got your attention that well, Okay, that 0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:13.760 actually makes sense to me because I have heard people 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:17.400 describe this to me that poker it's not really about 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:19.360 the cards. It's not really as you say, about the numbers. 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:21.880 It's it can be about money, can be about how 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:24.439 people relate to money and risk and threat, and it's 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:28.079 really it's really about people. It's about people reading other people. 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:31.720 So this actually leads us perfectly into what I really 0:10:31.760 --> 0:10:35.800 want to talk about today, which is the Democrats who 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:41.120 are in power seem to be completely misreading the situation. 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:44.600 You've got three huge they've You've got a lot of blunders, 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.360 but as I can see it, three really really big, 0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:50.400 prominent blunders they're making right now on the economic front. 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:54.480 Not only have they made a lot of poor economic 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:57.560 decisions that have hurt the country and certainly their political position, 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.000 but they're not backing away from them. They're they're doubling down. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.120 When it comes to energy, they're doubling down when it 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:05.200 comes to so many aspects of the economy. On the 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:09.920 cultural social issues, they're defending drag queens, jiggling for kids, 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:14.560 actual little tiny children in bars twenty one plus bars 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.240 in Texas of all places, they're defending it. And then 0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:23.760 they're they're coming on crime. They're they're still so weak 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:27.280 on crime. The das the mayors that you're seeing real 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:30.520 significant challenges from the right in San Francisco. You've got 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.720 a recall of the district attorney. In Los Angeles, now 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:35.680 you've got a big fight for the mayor and a 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.640 sort of kind of Republican is posing a big challenge. 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:43.320 What the hell are the Democrats thinking? You know, Michael, 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.199 it reminds me of do you remember those videos that 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:48.040 would come out every Spring break, Girls Gone Wild, and 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:51.719 it would have lots of college women in bikinis or 0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:57.160 not bikinis. It reminds me of much the same thing. 0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:00.720 This is liberals gone wild, This is the craze left 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.560 that this is AOC and Elizabeth Warren, thank god, not 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:13.120 in bikinis, but embracing their socialist nuttiness. I mean, it's 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:16.280 literally like someone sat down at a bar and said, 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:20.000 how much crazy crap can we do? Like, how far 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:24.760 can we go to drive away not just the conservatives 0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:27.560 that's a given, not even just the moderate, it's not 0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:31.080 even just the independence, but what can we do to 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:35.720 drive away good old fashioned liberals who are not nuts? 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:38.600 I do want to clarify Senator just on the girls 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.360 going wild point, I only ever watched that for the articles. 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:45.920 You know, I was just stalling, obviously, but I totally see. 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.480 I think the analogy is very good that they've gone 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:54.440 to extremes and followed their own wildest impulses. So what 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:56.920 what is going to happen to them in these these 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:59.360 elections that are really coming up right before us? Now 0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:01.840 you're looking Los Angeles, you're looking at the recall in 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:05.520 San Francisco. It's not Republicans recalling these guys. It's not 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.559 Republicans who are who are going to be voting primarily 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:12.040 in the LA elections. So what are the elected Democrats 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:13.880 gonna do? Are they gonna moderate or they're gonna get 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:18.040 wiped out? So I don't know what they're gonna do 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:20.199 this week, but I know what they're going to do 0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:23.640 in November. They're gonna get obliterated. November. It is going 0:13:23.760 --> 0:13:30.000 to be an historic election. It's every issue is so extreme. Look, 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.880 there are people Bill Maher. Bill Maher is an old 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:37.600 school liberal who they are driving away Elon Musk. Elon 0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:39.520 Musk has been a Democrat his whole life. They are 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:43.080 driving him away where he said, Okay, I'm voting Republican now. 0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:46.319 Because these guys are nuts, and you think about it, 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:49.960 all right, let's take the drag queen thing. Like, listen, 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:55.280 this is not about homosexuality. It's not even about transgenderism. 0:13:56.440 --> 0:14:00.520 If you want to if consenting a doll want to 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.559 do it, consenting adults want to do fine, knock yourself out, 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:07.480 but leave the kids alone. I mean, this is not 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:14.080 rocket science. Listen. If if you had straight women who 0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:18.760 were strippers and you had five year olds tucking dollars 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:21.040 in their g strings, you and I would be appalled 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:28.280 because kids have no business being sexualized. And it's where Look, 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:31.960 this is the radical extreme left that they want to 0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:38.160 sexualize little kids. So they're in this gay bar. They've 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:42.960 got transgender drag queens where they're tucking dollars in their 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:47.200 g strings and these are little kids, like what it's 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:51.120 it's the whole you know the misname don't say gay 0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:54.960 law in Florida? What is it with the radical left 0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:58.360 wanting to teach kindergarteners about sex? Gay sex, straight sex? 0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:01.120 How about just no se x for five year olds? 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:05.920 That ought to be a really simple rule that only 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.520 the crazy left doesn't get. Well. You make a really 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:13.560 interesting point here too on strip clubs. If if instead 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:17.200 of the gay bar with the drag queens wearing skimpy 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:21.800 clothing and have kids putting dollars in their various uh, 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:26.480 scantily attire, you know, scanty attire, if instead of that 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:30.600 you had kids walking into a plain, old, regular strip 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:33.920 club with real women there jiggling around, you would have 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.760 people calling child protective services in the blink of an 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:39.160 eye as well they should, so, I guess in a 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:42.400 in a certain way, it does have a tie in 0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:47.680 with the LGBT movement inasmuch as there's a complete double 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.800 standard here, and when it's drag queens doing it, it's 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:54.640 celebrated in the parents are taking the kids themselves. I 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:57.560 think how crazy this is that this is parents taking 0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:03.240 their kids to this look like look, we've discussed how 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:10.040 our culture has just become twisted like protecting the innocence 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:14.080 of kids ought to be something everyone can agree with, 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:17.840 and it's it's where you're saying, or you know, I mean, 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:21.320 let's look at the fact that the DA in San 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:25.080 Francisco is facing a recall chessa bodine or chisard. I'm 0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:26.640 not sure how you pronounce it, never know how to 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:31.600 pronounce it. Yeah, but he's the son of two radical 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:37.040 weather underground terrorists who were convicted of terrorist bombing, like 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:44.080 like literally the DA was raised by convicted terrorists, and 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:47.560 he's one of the many George Soros das that got 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:51.080 elected and decided I've got a great idea, let's not 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:54.200 prosecute criminals. Let's let violent criminals go. Isn't this a 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:57.400 wonderful idea? If we let violent criminals go, will be 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:01.680 so enlightened. And even the people of San Francisco are saying, 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:06.280 what the hell are you doing? Like we're liberals, we're 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:09.080 all four ninety percent tax rates or whatever it is 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:12.679 that they're for, but could you not let murderers like 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:16.520 wander the streets? Well, Democrats see that there's that issue, right, 0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:18.200 So it's not you know, it's not just the Republicans. 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:21.160 It's not just the moderates Democrats are waking up to this. 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.880 But I do wonder if it's if it's not just 0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:28.240 that the liberals have gone totally crazy. I mean, maybe 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:31.760 they already work crazy. But you saw many decades ago 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:36.919 you would see liberal leftist radical theorists writing about all 0:17:36.960 --> 0:17:40.400 these things, how in order to have true revolutionary change 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:42.720 in America, we need to abolish the police, we need 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:45.359 to radically redesign the prison systems. They would talk about 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:47.920 how we need to sexualize children in order to get 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:51.520 rid of all of their old, stodgy traditional prejudices about sex. 0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:55.000 For goodness sakes, Bernie Sanders wrote essays about this in 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:59.000 the nineteen sixties. Even on the economy, you've had not 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.600 just the radical theory, but Barack Obama, even members of 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:06.600 the Obama administration saying, we need to increase prices for 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:10.720 fossil fuels. We need to create actually some economic hardship, 0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:12.720 because that's the only thing that's going to motivate people 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:16.080 to go in and finally revolutionize the economy. You've seen 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:19.240 them talking about this stuff in a way that shows 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:23.200 their long term political goals, which is, to quote Barack 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:27.000 Obama to fundamentally transform America. And I guess I wonder 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:29.640 if what you're seeing right now is that those long 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:32.400 term goals are just Democrats getting out a little ahead 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:35.480 of their skis here, and there's so much short term 0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:39.679 pain and confusion that maybe that their own constituents are 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:43.000 going to say no. So, Michael, I'm sorry. I'm still 0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:46.080 traumatized because about halfway through what you said there, you 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:50.199 invoked Bernie Sanders and sex. And that's just an image 0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:52.000 I don't need to see. I've got to walk off 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:54.040 the Senate floor and see him with his white hair 0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:56.280 sticking straight up in the air, and I just don't 0:18:56.320 --> 0:19:03.359 need to That's an image I could have avoid. Look, 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:07.639 it is all right, let's take gas prices. It is 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:13.040 truly amazing watching the corporate press try to bend over 0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:16.080 backwards to say, none of this is Biden's fault, It's 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:18.520 Putin's fault, it's global markets. Is this it is that? 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:22.159 It's the other Biden literally campaign saying I'm going to 0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:24.160 shut down oil and gas drilling in the United States. 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:26.040 I'm gonna shut it down on federal lands, I'm gonna 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:28.640 shut it down, I'm shore the Green New Deal, I'm 0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:35.200 going to embrace. Biden has implemented literally dozens of policies 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:41.159 designed to attack, to hurt, to shut down domestic energy 0:19:41.200 --> 0:19:43.240 production in the United States. He's done it over and 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:46.520 over and over and over again. So he promised he 0:19:46.560 --> 0:19:50.240 would do it. He's followed through on that promise, and 0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:54.840 the predicted effect of that is prices have doubled. And 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:58.960 by the way, the socialists want prices to double, because 0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:03.920 what they're saying is, you, Joe sixpack, make the decision. 0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:07.280 We don't like you drive a pickup truck. Mom. Maybe 0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:09.560 you drive a suburban, maybe you drive a minivan. And 0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:12.200 here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna make your life 0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:14.680 so miserable that you have to spend one hundred bucks 0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:16.320 or one hundred and fifty bucks to fill up your 0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:18.399 car a truck that you're going to get rid of 0:20:18.440 --> 0:20:21.359 it and buy a Prius, which is what we want 0:20:21.400 --> 0:20:24.720 you to do. And so we're going to keep hurting 0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:29.240 you until you make the enlightened decision that we your 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.080 betters do. By the way, this past week, I don't 0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:36.840 know if you saw, the EU is putting taxes on fuel, 0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:42.600 on jet fuel, but they exempted private jets because of 0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:46.159 course they did. This is called the John Kerry exception. 0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:51.040 These guys are mister Burns. They are wealthy, out of touch, 0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:59.080 living in opulent riches. But then when they do what 0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:04.720 they promised they would do, implement policies to hurt domestic 0:21:04.800 --> 0:21:08.760 energy production, to drive gas prices up, suddenly they discover 0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:11.880 weight people don't like spending one hundred and fifty bucks 0:21:11.920 --> 0:21:15.120 to fill up their truck, right, And then they just 0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:18.400 try to blatant lead light to you. I'm really hoping 0:21:18.640 --> 0:21:22.679 that you know now the people are kind of people 0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:25.560 of all parties actually are pulling the radicals back from 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:29.600 the brink. But I wonder if the radicals and the 0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:32.920 people who have been in charge have secured those kind 0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:36.280 of longer term victories. I look this past week at 0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:39.679 Joe Biden invoking the Defense Production Act because there is 0:21:39.680 --> 0:21:43.040 this energy crisis. Energy costs have gone through the roof. 0:21:43.240 --> 0:21:46.159 Gas has doubled since the man's been president. And so 0:21:46.240 --> 0:21:49.639 what does he do. Does he invoke that provision of 0:21:49.680 --> 0:21:53.000 the law or some other provision to open up oil drilling, No, 0:21:53.280 --> 0:21:56.439 to I don't know, create a new nuclear powers. No, 0:21:56.880 --> 0:21:59.760 what is he doing? It's it's to produce solar panels. 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:02.159 It's to give the left what they've wanted for a 0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:05.119 long time that I don't see any way will actually 0:22:05.160 --> 0:22:08.520 bring down an energy costs, certainly not anytime soon. One, 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:10.639 how does he do that? The White House hasn't explained 0:22:10.720 --> 0:22:15.520 what emergency he's responding to that requires solar panels. But two, 0:22:16.080 --> 0:22:18.320 are they getting what they want? Are they? Are they 0:22:18.600 --> 0:22:23.440 as we've heard from from which I forget the name 0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:26.040 of the Emmanuel brother there's Ari, and there's Zeke, and 0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:31.320 there's the one that I'm talking about. Gosh, I can't 0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:32.919 believe his name escapes me. But you know, one of 0:22:32.920 --> 0:22:36.000 the one of the worst Democrats you know in modern politics. 0:22:36.600 --> 0:22:40.280 You know, never to let a crisis go to a 0:22:41.119 --> 0:22:43.000 rom There we go. I can't believe I forgot the 0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:45.600 most famous of the Emmanuel brothers names. I remember the 0:22:45.640 --> 0:22:48.720 Hollywood one and the doctor one, but not rom saying 0:22:48.760 --> 0:22:52.120 never let a crisis go to waste? Are they even 0:22:52.160 --> 0:22:54.680 as they're losing support even among their own guys right now? 0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:57.720 Are they? Are they scoring those long term political wins? 0:22:58.560 --> 0:23:02.680 So I actually think there are some voices among Democrats, 0:23:02.720 --> 0:23:05.080 and it wouldn't surprise me if Emmanuel is one of 0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:07.639 them that is wondering, what in the hell are you 0:23:07.680 --> 0:23:11.280 people doing? They're people like James Carville, who listen. James 0:23:11.320 --> 0:23:13.840 Carville is smart as all get out. He's one of 0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:17.959
