- Kira Davis: To another episode of The Orange Report with Kira Davis. All the news and views you can use from around California and Orange County. ⁓ yeah, I look like ⁓ maybe I'm going hunting or something today. ⁓ my friend has this ⁓ company that makes these cool shirts and hats. And I told her I would wear it today just to show you guys. So this is Bible and Gun. ⁓ I think it's Bibleandgun.com, if I'm correct. Yeah, Bible and Gun.com. I always need my glasses. Bibleandgun dot com. I'll bring this down so you can see it. So just some fun stuff. ⁓ she sent well, this hat's for my husband, but I'm wearing it today. And actually, girl, it's right on time because it's been a crazy week, been a crazy month, and I didn't even want to do my hair for this podcast. So I was like, great, I'll put on the Bible and gun, like pro bath shop hat, a little southern comfort. and we're good to go. If you want to support a local small business, it's American owned, American shipping. ⁓ Then go to Bibleandgun.com and support my friend. And yeah, I just wanted to share her stuff. I this is not a sponsored segment. I do I am open for those, but ⁓ you know, when my friends have cool stuff going on, I like to show it off. So I thought these were cool. They have a number of things over there, actually. They have ⁓ sort of different parody versions of shirts and cute little Bible and gun sayings. So I'm all about it. These days I am all about identifying yourself. You know, and we're gonna play this actually. ⁓ but the the left is y you know, they've got their uniforms. I talk about it all the time. You remember I showed you that picture one time of like all those Antifa people and they all looked the same, same crazy look, same blue hair, same piercings, same even the same skin, you know, skin texture. Like their skin was so greasy and dirty and they they just all look the same. And that's not an accident, it's a uniform. And ⁓ You know, I think that one of the things we did when w you know what, the boomers really screwed up. Sorry, boomers. I know I have a lot of you in my audience and I just wanna reiterate that and this is a very boomer specific thing, because the boomers, no matter if you're one of the good ones or one of the bad ones, they're always mad at you if you talk about them. It's like you guys are always bitching about the hippie boomers. Why can't I? ⁓ but as soon as they hear the word boomers, boomers are like, I'm offended. We're not I'm not talking about you. Obviously, I'm not talking about you, but I think this is a generational gap because Gen X really doesn't get millennials got all kinds of stuff to say about Gen X. I see ⁓ on ⁓ TikTok and Instagram all the time, and we don't really care. We don't really care. We we might make a joke out of it, but really we don't really care if it applies to us personally, then it does. If not. But anyways, one of the things that the bad boomer crowd, okay, not you watching the show, you're the good boomer crowd. The bad boomer crowd, what they did is they normalized weird, right? And we and believe me, as a child of a hippie of two hippies, and and to this day my mother will, you know, she loves to pretend she's so weird. It's like a badge of honor. You know, she'll be like, Ugh, I guess I'm just weird. She's always wanting to be weirder that she's to me she's not weird enough, but She's always wanting to be weirder than she is. And I I I think that is a sign of the times, a sign of their times where their parents were sort of that stereotypical 50s post-World War II, you know, two and a half kids, picket fence, normal, and the boomers were really ⁓ were really organizing against that and rebelling against that. And then we went through this whole thing, I guess, in the 80s, punk and 80s and 90s, where it's like weird is okay. Weird is good. It's okay to be weird and We went through this whole like let's stop bullying kids for being weird and it seemed great at the time. I liked it because I was a weird kid. And, you know, I I I liked that we were normalizing weird. I thought I was weird. I I don't think I was ever that weird now that I see what weird really is. But it was a theater kid, you know, and an outsider no matter what, where I was and I guess I embraced that. But then weird turned into something a lot more sinister. It wasn't just colorful or expressive, you know. Gen X, you had your weird friends in high school, didn't you? They were ⁓ you know, the artsy types, they wore the bohemian skirts or they listened to a certain type of music or whatever. They were weird, but they weren't bizarre, you know? Maybe they wished they were, but they weren't. And yeah, we would make fun of them, or they're peculiar. They're all natural products. And now look at all of us. We're all like scraping for natural products. But ⁓ something sinister happened. I'm gonna say about the two thousands, Obama and weird became mean, and weird became ugly, and weird became loud, and weird became normal. And I have said this before. I wrote an article on my Substack about it, just Kira Davis dot com. I've said it before, I'll say it again, but ⁓ we we made weird normal and we need to normalize normal again. Because and you know what we also need to do? Let me just say and then I'm gonna show you this clip. Let me just tell you this. You know what else we need to do? We need to start bullying again. We need to start bullying kids again. We need to start not you adults. Don't go around bullying kids, adults. That's that's weird. That's weird. But we do need to bring back bullying because now that we see what the nerds do when they're in charge, they can't be in charge. There's a reason for this hierarchy. The nerds are not okay. They have their place, but they need to stay in their place. I'm telling you this as somebody who's not part of the cool crowd. I don't know that I'll call myself a nerd, but I was certainly an outsider, a weirdo. ⁓ there's a whole race angle that if you guys have followed my career, you understand. You know where I came from and what I had to deal with as a kid. There's all of that. But ⁓ you know, and not that I would want to go backwards and be bullied again, but you know what? I think bullying is the right thing. I do. Because look, look at what we've let the nerds do. To us. The nerds are about to take over the whole world with AI. The nerds are about to destroy the whole world. The nerds don't know how to handle themselves. So this is a great example when nerds become famous comedians, and then, you know, eight out of ten of them have they're either involved with a very young woman or a minor, ⁓ or they are or they ⁓ have very questionable, you know, relationships with young people or end up in a sexual harassment suit. Well, why? Because they were nerds and then they became popular, but they were still nerds. And when there's nobody left to bully them, whatever that thing inside of them that really never got fixed, it becomes mean. It becomes selfish. It becomes entitled. And there's something to be said for for bullying the nerds, really. Cause look at what the nerds have given us. Look at what they've done to us. We let the nerds get on top and we convince like all the jock, the white jocks specifically, like you guys aren't worth anything. You guys are, you know, you're Nazis and you're colonialists or whatever. And and we let the nerds take over and look what's happening. Look around us. Everything's falling apart. We are slaves to DEI, slaves to CRT, slaves to the trans cult. You know, that's w we let the nerds get out of hand and we just okay, well accept everybody where they are. No, let's start shaming weirdos again. Let's start pointing and laughing at people who look weird, who dress weird on purpose. You know, and I don't mean like again, just like your colorful hippie friends, but the people who wear ⁓ disgusting or lewd t-shirts, you know, with a with us as I have my beautiful t-shirt on. W you know, but some of them are really you know, the trans people wear around stuff ⁓ that depicts murder and Charlie Kirk's murder and all kinds of stuff like that. Let's start pointing that stuff out. Let's ridicule it, let's shame it and let where we can, because some things are protected by law, where we can, we protect our spaces. We protect we protect the the boundaries of those spaces and what's acceptable and appropriate there. You know, if I have a business, yeah, I'm gonna kick you out if you're dressed inappropriately in my business. All that to say I started all that to say that I think let's normalize this again. Let's normalize the good old boys, the rednecks, and the people who are just Really proud of their guns or Bibles and their country. Let's normalize that again. If the weirdos can go around and do whatever they want and say whatever they want and dress however they want and the way they are dressing is filthy, gross, disgusting, and not appropriate for public or children to see. If they can do that, why can't we do we need to get out of this mindset that everybody just sort of need needs to be neutral. Conservatives and Christians have fallen into that trap. We've allowed ourselves to be culturally influenced into that trap. The idea that we we step back and be quiet and we don't cause trouble and we don't laugh at people or ridicule people or complain. And you know what? I was that person for a long time. And after Charlie, I don't feel like it. I don't feel like it anymore. I know I've said it before, but I just don't feel like it. And I, okay, I'm in my 50s, I'm menopausal, I'm going through a change of life. Like, obviously, I have less patience for a lot of things, but I really have zero patience for the weirdos out there. And I don't think we should let America be subject to weirdo rule anymore. I don't think so. It's time for the normal folks to rise up. And I always my kids will tell you I always hated kindness week in school. And kindness week would yes, I don't know if you have it where you are. We're in California. We have a whole week. It was one day. It's turned into a week. ⁓ yeah. I think it comes on the heels of teacher appreciation week, which used to be a day. We don't need a teacher appreciation week, everybody. Those teachers are just doing the job that they volunteered for, right? They I love teachers. I just came from an education conference, Teacher Freedom Alliance in Dallas. I love teachers. I just eulogized my mother-in-law, who was a teacher and a pr and a school principal. ⁓ I love teachers, but teachers do not need a whole week of appreciation. My mother-in-law would have she would have scoffed at that. She did scoff at that. Because you're just do ⁓ you know, you're just doing your job. The server doesn't get a server appreciation week. 'Cause the person voluntarily took the job and they took the pay that comes with the job. That's what you're doing as a teacher. I love teachers. I I it's a great job for you to do. ⁓ you're not any more special than anybody else who does a job in the society. I'll say that. I get a lot of trouble for it for saying that. Like I appreciate what you do. ⁓ you're not special. I'm ranting. We just we've we've We've had this full-on assault of kindness for the last decade. And I'm sick of it. Kindness week in school would start it a day, then it's a week. It would just activities every day. And I know moms can appreciate this. Y'all, we don't with the activities stop. The kids go to school to learn. How much time are you wasting with all these extra activities? Like y'all can't barely get the instruction year in in public schools. And you waste and the kindness week would be like. You know, be nice here's a be nice to the dumb kids day. I mean, of course they wouldn't call that, but they had a bench, which I always thought was weird. At first I thought it was nice, but then it turned out to be weird, which is like if you're a kid and you don't have anyone to play with at recess, you go to the bench and then other kids can come and invite you in and ⁓ you know, reach out to the awkward kids, all of that stuff. It sounds nice on the surface. I know some of you are going, What's the problem, Kira? Why are you so mean? It sounds nice on the surface, but what it ends up doing is it ends up quelling and squashing a child's natural instinct to A, tribalize and to be to be ⁓ protect themselves and obey their instincts. And I'm not saying that the kids deserve to be bullied in school because kids are kids. You don't know who they're gonna turn turn out to be. But sometimes kids recognize things about each other and they recognize that the other kids aren't safe. Case in point, the young man who shot up ⁓ the Florida school, Parkland, the Parkland school shooting years ago, killed, I think 12 kids, died, how a lot. And he ⁓ He was an outcast, outsider. I mean, you get a picture of him, you'd see it right away. And it ignited at the time, it ignited a national discussion about kindness, about embracing the kids who are outsiders or lost. He he had left diaries, he didn't have friends, all that stuff. But a young lady in his class, a survivor actually came out. She she had something very interesting to say. She said, I don't think it's very helpful when the adults tell us. To do stuff like that because we knew this kid and we were scared of him. He was not okay. Whose job was it to reach out to him and make him a part of their group when he was mentally unstable? He was rude, he was gross, you know, like he smelled and he would do gross things to people and he didn't have any social skills. Who, what kid is supposed to take him into their fold? You're teaching a kid to disobey. The instincts that they have that say this person isn't safe. Case in point Let's go to number one, Scott. This is a student in Florida. Again, I guess remaining on topic. A student, a young man in Florida was freaking out in the student center. I think this is University, ⁓ is this Miami? This is University of Florida somewhere, freaking out in the student center because he's being misgendered. This is a student. He claims she's a she. He claims he's a she. And some students, and I think some of them were female, were misgendering him. Okay. I would like to reiterate this is a college student at a university where other students, particularly women, go and he is upset at being misgendered. Let's go ahead and play this clip. He he It's not parody. What's the problem? Why do you let those kids get away with this? They are not supposed to be here. If you don't lower your voice, I am going to put handcuffs on you and I'm going to take you to a baker act facility. Lower your voice. Try it. Are you are you threatening me? Can we get another unit to deal with Jay Lee here? He is having a breakdown. Say! Say! Just say the right pronoun! What did you say? 7351. Get down on the ground right now. No! No! You're about to get sprayed. No! Get down on the ground right now! Leave me alone! I can come in there. Leave me alone, please! Okay, are you gonna calm down? I won't be alone for me. No, it's too late now. It's too late now. He's he's gonna be taken away. Say! He's not I just want to get away from him. I understand that. She stop Bass Jack like me. Just say she. Just say she. Please step it. Watch your head. Do not push me. He bumped his head anyway. He said stop misgendering me. What did he want? He said, All I want, all I want is to not be misgendered, but that's not all they want. That's not all they want. And imagine that this is the type of young man. This is typical, by the way. That's typical. The idea that trans people, they're just like the rest of us and they just want to live their lives. I know almost not a one. I know like two that I've met in my life, two. One I'm related to. Great person, great lady that pretends she's a guy, but great person. ⁓ but ⁓ but this is a mental illness. Women have it a little easier. I think with with the with the cross-sex hormones, I think ⁓ they're a slightly less later to ⁓ less likely to go insane, but men have that added factor of being men. So they're already aggressive naturally. And that's why you see trans men when they get misgendered, they often almost always get violent, angry, they scream. ⁓ because they are men, they are toxic men who don't get their way. And a toxic man who doesn't get his way usually gets violent. So imagine being a high school girl and having to share bathroom that with that guy. Imagine being a college girl and having to change in your locker room for your track and field practice or your volleyball game practice with that guy. And then if you say anything, not only are you treated with that lunacy, but then even the people who are supposed to protect you insult you and call you names and suspend you, take your titles, like offer you therapy for not being able to accept a fine upstanding citizen like that in your space. That guy is the result of us not being able to say what's weird when we see it in front of our eyes. Right? The gay folks came and said, Pride, gay pride, we just want to be just like y'all. We just want families. We just want to lead normal lives. Have you ever gone to a gay pride parade? You only need to go to one. And you could just pick one. Throw a rock and pick one. During pride season. They're all the same. You might see one or two normal delegations walking through, you know, lesbians for libraries or something like that. But They're all like they all include the most degraded things. Like I will never see that as part of a Christmas festival or part of a Constitution Day festival or July 4th. It doesn't exist because those aspects don't exist in those topics. But somehow we're supposed to forget about that when it comes to the LGBT plus all the other letters. And that is because they made us make weird normal. And we don't have to do it anymore. And I would like to suggest. That we don't. Normalize this. Normalize you know, normalize your flags, normalize normal behavior again. We have to do it. And yeah, that does mean pointing and laughing or pointing and calling out or being rude. They it it the uniform says something about us and we try to pretend like it doesn't. So we invite drag queen queens to read to kids in the library. The uniform says something, and yeah, we're we're supposed to pretend that it doesn't. The drag queen uniform look, it's w if you're consenting adults, it's one thing. I've been to plenty of drag shows in my life. Palm Springs got drag queen bingo at the diner there, which is super fun. I'm not taking my five year old kid because the drag queen uniform says something. So ⁓ I'm not willing to nor I'm I'm no longer willing to normalize ⁓ these people. I'm not gonna normalize weird behavior anymore. And I am gonna shame it and I am gonna call it out. You know what? If you have a septum ring, I'm not listening to you. There's something weird about people, especially women who put septum rings in. I haven't seen ⁓ a normal thinking person with one. You could challenge me. I would love To be challenged on that. If you're just a regular old conservative with a septum ring, regular old American, I guess you don't have to be conservative, but regular old American with regular old American views with a septum ring, hit me up. Let me see. But usually I see that it says something to me. And we're our eyes have been taught to say, ⁓ no, it doesn't mean what I think it means. We ⁓ same thing, you know, ⁓ We talked about the Newport Beach takeovers last week or the week before. I can't remember. It's been July's been a crazy month, ⁓ due to ⁓ family stuff. But ⁓ you know, we see a large group of of black kids. Look look, I'm black, my whole family's black, I've been raising black kids for over twenty years. And I will walk out of a place that gets swarmed with black people. We will walk, we will leave. We will leave, and normal black people will. But we've all been trained in normal society to look at a group of kids like that coming in and go, ⁓ I'm sure they're they're just like other kids. White kids are bad too, so I guess these it we shouldn't worry, we shouldn't worry and then things escalate and escalate and no one wants to do anything 'cause racism. Let's normalize calling out abnormal behavior. Let's do that. ⁓ I think black people especially, we need to be doing more of that for our own. We shouldn't be we shouldn't be depending on white people to do that. And I don't think we want to. The white people are fed up. They're mad. We're about to go backwards, y'all. What we're about to regress to a time when all of us are having to prove our worth and our value in white society because of the the bad apples out there. We're about to go back there 'cause white people have had it with us. They've had it. I have two. ⁓ I'm not gonna be nice about the trans thing anymore. But also I really just feel like and I can't believe I'm saying this, but apologies to my gay friends whom I love very much. The gay thing's gone too far. And that's where the trans thing came in. That's y'all's fault. And that's what we kept trying to say. No, if we do this, if we change the definitions for this, it's gonna open up the door for more weirdness. And y'all said, No, we just wanna be just like you. Just let us have our family parades and our family surrogacies and all of this stuff and everything'll be fine. And it's not fine, is it? It's not fine. So what you could say, well, what a what do gay people do, Kira? I don't know. I don't care. Not my problem. Not my problem. Just be normal, you know? Just like us. Like we're black and we're just normal. We're just normal. You can just be that. And I'm not running around asking everybody for all kinds of X, Y, and Z, all kinds of extra stuff. I'm normal. Just treat me like a normal American. You can do that too. All right, let's get to some other stories here. I'm just tired of the abnormal and I'm tired of us having to pretend that weird is normal and normal is weird. It's backwards and we're suffering for it. And if you want to win this culture back, you can't just depend on President Trump to bomb the Middle East into oblivion and then, you know, ⁓ sign some executive orders here and bada boom, bada bing, America's back. It doesn't work like that. A cultural shift depends on you and me. Trump only has four years total. That's it. You can't depend on and y'all are ticked at him when he doesn't hop to it just the way you want it to him to anyway. So he's at risk on any given day of the week of disappointing you so much that you're willing to throw away the victory of what his presidency means cause you're pissed off cause it's not going fast enough or it's not going the way you want it to go or he's not making the type of decisions you think should be made right away. He's one man. We all have to do this together. Let's go to number three, because I want to continue. I want to talk about ⁓ Van Jones. ⁓ we all know Van. Some of us love Van. Some of us I think most people like Van. You know, we always say, ⁓ he's one of the reasonable ones. I don't know, is Van reasonable or is he like a lot of old school Democrats and he's really just a conservative now? I don't know. I think he's just married to well you know, the problem is probably that white liberal wife. Van, you don't marry the white liberal ladies. It's just ⁓ a bad idea. all right, let's see. Van Jones Is the ⁓ video on there, Scott? Is that video or is it just this post? Yeah, all right, let's play his video here. I've been waiting my whole life to see a youth movement do what it's doing, but it's being hijacked by people who are putting in nutty ideas supporting terrorists, nutty ideas saying that we don't need cops in prison. We can't we can't deport anybody, even if they rape somebody. Who said this? Chevalier. If we can't say right from wrong, if we can't say good from bad, if we can't separate progressive ideas from regressive ideas. We're going down the same pathway that has pulled the Republican Party into an unre recognizable shell of itself. And I refuse to let that happen to them. And the other problem I am a progressive Democrat. ⁓ I mean, look, he's got all p kinds of problems, right? Like ⁓ he ca he he can't he's got a job, guys, he's he's got a contract. He can't just become a Republican and can't just become nice to Republicans. ⁓ and so he had to get that Republican dig in. Sir, we're the only people standing between you and the DSA. What are you even talking about? We've been telling you this for years. We're the only people who can help you. You're not gonna save your party. Look at you. You used to be the the hot the trot. You used to be the top of the Democrat Party. Everyone would stop and listen to Van Jones and now listen to Van Jones like a little Kid, whining, begging, please, guys, don't do this. Don't turn your back on us. It's regressive. We freaking told you it was gonna happen because you're a freaking socialist. And you are you took pride in that. You're like, ⁓ I work with prison reform and I work with this and I work with that, and the Republicans are regressive. No, we're not regressive. We're conservative. We want to conserve and preserve the constitutional culture of America. And we told you from the beginning, these ideas that you have. They sound okay. In the beginning they sound like all right, it's doable, but it's compromise, but they lead to this. The slippery slope is real. We told you that, bam, in the nineties, we told you that in the two thousands, we told you that in the twenty tens, we told you that when you elected Barack Obama and defended every divisive thing he said as righting wrongs and fighting colonialism. We told you the whole time, Van. We told you that political correctness would become cancel culture. We told you that political correctness would become censorship. And you called us racist. And you still did. You couldn't help yourself at the end of that. You still did. But we're right. And then instead of saying, you know what, Republicans, what do we do about this? You accuse the Republicans of being the problem as if you, Van, And the tiny sliver of sensible Democrats that are left are the only people holding America down. Like you guys are the only ones that have it have it figured out, and the far left of your party is just bananas, and then anybody on the right wing, anyone who calls themselves a Republican is bananas and racist, but we've been the ones who are right this whole time. And we tried to tell you, and you called us Nazis and racist, you did what you just did just here. We tried to tell you. We tried to tell you. This is where it will always lead. I know there's a lot of people out there who's like, don't make people like Van feel bad, you know, bring them over. I don't care. It's not my job to figure it out for Van or to make it like welcoming over here. I spent my whole career trying to make it welcoming over here for intelligent men like Van. And you know what happened? They called me Nazi, they called me a sellout, they called me Uncle Tom, they called me a racist. We said it. And now Van wants to be like, ⁓ this is not the party I built. Yes, it is. It is the party you built. And when you make fun of us for suggesting that maybe Bill Clinton shouldn't be getting his you know what, you know what it in the Oval Office, you you called us prudes. Or when we suggested, you know, hey, maybe we shouldn't be inventing rights like abortion or gay marriage in the Constitution. You called us bigots. And we we suggested, hey, maybe we should lock down immigration. Maybe we shouldn't just be welcoming people from all over, everywhere, willy-nilly. You called us bigots. When we said, hey, maybe kids should be able to choose where they go to school instead of getting stuck in one failing school system and just becoming a number on a piece of paper for the teachers' unions to, you know, hold taxpayers hostage over. You called us bigots, you called us racists, you called us isolationists, you called us anti education. We tried to warn you and now here you are. So don't call hey, don't call Republicans the problem. You're the problem. This is your party, my friend. This is right in here. We're not worrying about the Democrat socialists. We're not worrying about the Republican socialists. We're not worried. We're the last line of defense, my friend. You better get on this side. Your party's lost. Your party is lost. I don't know that we can save the Democrat Party. I think that the Democrat Party might go the way of the Whigs. At this point. But I don't you know, I I guess we're laughing at Van. I guess we're kind of laughing, and that's fine. I just did a whole speech about how we should point and laugh at those people. And listen again, I'm like a lot of other conservatives, I like Van, you know. I think he's fighting real hard to not get it. Because his job depends on not getting it. And he's married to a white liberal woman. They're a disaster. I bet you, if and when that marriage ever falls apart. Band is a conservative. I'll put money on it. Does Calchi have any odds on that? And I'll put money on it. And I know that sounds insulting, and I don't mean it to be insulting, but I do mean it. I do I do think this is an issue, particularly for black men. I do. Their white liberal wives are crazy. Don't and you know I'm right because every black man gets the ⁓ be careful of the crazy white girl speech. Comes with the cops. What to do when the cops stop you speech. They usually happen at the same time. You guys brought this on yourselves and we've been trying to tell you this whole time. As a matter of fact, I posted this on X. You see, we all owe Joseph McCarthy an apology. I mean, I I w I read Ann Coulter's books. She has a couple books on this topic, and it really changed how I think about this in the late nineties or I guess the early two thousands would have been. ⁓ But I read a couple of Ann Colder books. She was part of my transformation. And ⁓ she talked about all the communist elements in our government. And when I see it happening now, I'm like, yeah, she was right. Joseph McCarthy was right. We learned it as some crazy time in American history where we were so paranoid. The red scare. We act like our ancestors, the people who came even just a few decades before us, that they were so freaking stupid. Like they didn't know anything. That's why we act we act like they were all just total dumb bigots and racists who didn't know as much as we know today. And they're just they were just a few decades ago that they roamed our the halls of government and had influence. And maybe we need to stop thinking that those people were stupid. Maybe we're stupid. Probably we're the stupid ones. And McCarthy died a pariah. He died, I think he was penniless, alone. I think he had like died in poor health. They trashed him same they did the same with Kenneth Starr. Remember Kenneth Starr? Some of you are too young to remember Kenneth Starr, but that's the prosecutor that was in charge of investigating Bill Clinton. And before we had the internet and alternative media, so he had he j that man was he went to his grave. He went to his rave, just beaten and trashed, and they made s Saturday Night Live did sketches about him or what a pervert he was. What a pervert he was for investigating Bill Clinton, getting his you know what, you know what it in the Oval Office. That's we've just come so far. You guys did that, Van. You did it to yourselves. And we warned you and we got nothing but grief for our trouble. So I mean, if you want to come over, great. You know, come on over to this side. There's plenty of room. We've all a lot of us have been there. I was you, I was a liberal once, I was a Democrat once, you know, and I would hate to be shamed by somebody after after I learned. But you don't have to try so hard, man, to not get it. You don't have to try so hard. It's really okay to say, you know what, those people were right. You can say that. Because we were right and we're living the consequences out. Now you're not gonna save your party. I don't think the Democratic Party can be saved. I can't imagine how. Right now you guys have given the keys to the kingdom, to the DSA. So good luck with that. We told you so, and now as usual, we on the right are gonna have to mobilize to clean up your mess, Van, because you and the rich elites like you. have have gotten to, you know, think about w how life should be lived and and how America should work from your cozy, wealthy, elitist enclades where you haven't had to really mix with unwashed masses. I know you do a lecture on a college campus every now and then, and maybe you volunteer for the NAACP at a at a at a kitchen here and there. But we both know you don't live among us. You don't live among the people And the days when, you know, that was your daily life to see that, those days are gone. We know that. So ⁓ you've been able to pr you know, pretend that you're really thinking about really important solutions, but you haven't been. You haven't been thinking about that. You've been thinking about yourself, you've been thinking about your fellowships, you've been thinking about your paycheck, you've been thinking about the liberal channel you work for, you've been thinking about traveling, you've been thinking about making sure your wife doesn't get mad, but you haven't been thinking about how the average American lives. Alright, let's switch gears a little bit here because ⁓ Let's do number four. I wanna talk about this before I run. ⁓ tales from Gavin Newsom. Everybody, Gavin Newsom is working really hard, fast and furious, really. Fast and furious to make you forget that he has been in government in California for the last twenty years and done nothing except preside over the steepest and tragic, most tragic decline of California life in the history of this state. And he wants to run for president. And man, I gotta tell ya, I gotta say this about Gavin before we watch this clip, because I'm gonna break down this clip. I'm gonna analyze it for you. ⁓ if I had anything to say, anything good to say about Gavin, it would be that he is persistent. You know, everything is against him. He is got he is closer to jail than ever. Dana Williamson's definitely flipped on him. He's probably gonna be in some legal trouble. I I tend to believe none of these people will go to jail, but I'll settle for a perp walk to be honest. I'll settle for a perp walk. ⁓ but either way, you know, the jig is up when it comes to that. He's got, I'm gonna guess, multiple investigations. And the DSA has taken over the party. And he's just a regular rich white boy. And what do you do? From California at that, what do you do? You know, when you you you can't The party was the old rich white guy, and now it's the young foreign-born Islamist. Socialist commie. He's just spinning. He's got a book. He's traveling the country. But now all of these reports are coming out because we're having our own campaign season here in California. So a lot of these reports are being dug up by both people inside California and people who are interested in what's going on in California. All of a sudden, all the dirty stuff that the newsoms are into is coming to out into the public with the arrival of the New York Post, now the California Post here. A lot more of our stories are becoming national news. And he's realizing that it's not looking good for him. So he's pivoting hard to the left, trying to pretend he's a socialist. And he's not. He's just an opportunist. But he's signing executive order after executive order, trying to imitate Trump, sort of lickety split. strategy to get stuff done. But it's nonsense. It's all nonsense. It's none of it is real. None of it is impactful because it's not real. So the diaper gate, though you there's a story on diaper gate. I don't think we'll have a ti a chance to do it today, but you know, diaper gate, he announced free diapers last month, signed an executive order, $12 million. Where's it gone? Nobody knows. Nobody knows. But some of it seems to be connected to his wife's charity. So All of that. I want to play this clip because of watching this clip of him and Jennifer, the first partner, and he was signing an executive order. What was it for? For see, the clip's right in front of me, and I literally can't remember what it's for. It's for it's some executive order for or against sex trafficking. Who knows? But as I was watching this clip, I was like, my goodness, this is the perfect example of the disgusting. vague roboticness of people like Musum and how he really is old school if I just say enough big words and speak in these mazes that people won't know that I have said absolutely nothing. You know who was best at this? Barack Obama. He was the best. Well let's play this clip and Scott, I'm gonna have you stop and start it ⁓ because it's so ridiculous. Go ahead. So I just signed an executive order addressing the issue of human trafficking, sex trafficking here in the state of California. While it's true we've invested tens of millions of dollars in vertical prosecution grants and victim services. There's your first first buzz phrase. Vertical What do you what was it? What was it? Vertical solutions and victim services. Whatever. Vertical something plant. Right. Just what does it mean? Well it's true that we have donate that we've invested invested ten million dollars in vertical solutions and victim services. But what does this what does this mean? Continue. is we have an uncoordinated system and the executive order goes to the heart of that concern. So we brought together survivors and agencies and law enforcement and this really is about streamlining efficiencies and ensuring that we have better early identification. We brought together this group, that group and that group and we're really streamlining efficiencies. Strikes to the heart, he points to that, you know, that binder. Like he really just did something. Strikes to the heart of streamlining efficiencies with vertical solutions and victim services. Do you s do you have any idea what this executive order is yet? All right, keep going. prevention and that the benefits go to the survivors. We have an opportunity to really write this ship and I'm super proud of California basically. Sixty days, sixty days we'll have a new action plan to take our efforts to the next level. That's right. So I just guys that's not even the plan. Do you are you guys Even the plan. You hear what he said? 60 days, 60 days, and then we'll have a new action plan. He didn't sign the plan. He didn't sign the solution. He didn't even sign the vertical, whatever, whatever. He signed an executive order to have an action plan in 60 days. I just again I want to say there is a part of me that really is impressed. With Gavin's commitment to nonsense, with his commitment to just, I will say anything, and it doesn't have to make sense, and it doesn't have to have to be anything. It doesn't ever have to come to fruition because I'm Gavin Newsom and this is California and I'm a Democrat and we're never held accountable. After all of that, talking about, you know, this is going to be great for sex, ⁓ trafficking victims and vertical solutions and we got agencies, law enforcement, victim services together, and we streamlined efficiencies. And what we came up with was an executive order to have a plan within 60 days. Within six and it's July. It's the end of July, so August and September. In two months we'll have a plan and the election's in November. I just ⁓ I'm I am amazed. And I'm amazed that anyone looks at it and goes, Well, these they really did something, Jennifer the first partner. Jennifer first partner standing there. I'm so glad. Yeah, we were I'm standing in the gap for for victims. Yeah, you got what an amazing job. What did you do? What did you we I haven't haven't seen? I would love to talk to some of those people that were in that video and sitting at the table. What did they get? What got solved? First of all, if you're in a meeting with the governor, I'm gonna bet you're not solving problems, period. They're not gonna invite people who are actually getting stuff done. So you're probably not part of the solution, anyways. But just astounding, just absolutely astounding. ⁓ and in that respect, he's not too much different than the other Democrats. But I will say this, you know, if I look at a guy like Mam Dani. Even if I look at someone like AOC, they're still saying things. They're saying retarded things. They're saying things I don't want for this country. But I understand what they're saying. Do you know what I mean? I can understand what they're saying. Even if AOC sounds stupid, I can understand what the things that she's asking for. She actually has real actionable items that she wants. Again, it's nothing I want. It's nothing I think it's going to be good for America, but they're real. actionable items. And Newsom just has these vague these vagaries, these just the vertical solutions and the ⁓ streamlining the efficiencies and then in sixty days we signed the plan to have a plan to to execute a plan in sixty days. I I don't know. Maybe it's good them wearing the this parody gear today by my friends at Bibleandguns.com. Bibleandgun.com. Bibleandgun.com. ⁓ parody gear. Maybe it's appropriate because I do feel like my governor is a is a parody. He's a parody of himself. It's hard to believe that People could vote for him, but they do. They do. And I guess that speaks to the larger issue we have in our culture, right? We let the weirdos take over too much. Like the weirdo, the inmates are running the asylum. The weirdos are running the gym. And we need to change that. Frankly, look, again, as someone who is bullied mercilessly every day, bring back bullying. It provides something. It provides a type of a service. ⁓ I just there's a reason why we don't have the nerds on top and the nerds can't be trusted on top. The the jocks aren't that much better, but when the hierarchy is in place, it's at least easier to get things done. And we don't have satanic trans cults, serial killer cults running all over America. The jocks aren't into it. telling you, let me continue on this rant. If you think President Trump is supposed to come in here, snap his fingers and in four years right every wrong in this country, you're just as bad as the Gavin Newsoms in the world. And I'm tired of hearing from people who are like, ⁓ I don't know about Trump Kira. Like we're in month eighteen. You know, and everyone ⁓ no, he just is like, I don't like this Iran thing. Okay, fine. I don't either, but like it really, for all intents and purposes, it It hasn't been going on that long. ⁓ but I I have some friends who are like, Well, he didn't deal with ⁓ I my mom friends are really on the glycophate thing and I mean I am too. But there's a lot. The point is is not that he doesn't do things that people don't like or that I don't like. The point is is that everyone, every conservative is riding Donald Trump's jock until it gets to the one issue that they think should have been addressed right up front, and suddenly it's like, I'm not so sure about Trump. No. Hold that. Hold on to that. All right. He's got four years to do the impossible. And you can't absolve yourself of your role in all of this. And again, this is not to excuse Donald Trump or to be a Donald Trump sycophan. I am not that. But I am realistic about the work that has to be done and the type of leader that we have elected to get it done. And I'm also realistic about how all of you have been bitching and moaning about how the Democrats and the left have t pulled this country into this downward spiral and then you elect one man and you just expect that one man in in four months to just pull us out all the out of the spiral. And it's gotta be done in the order you think it's supposed to be done in, even though this man spent the last ten years gaming the plan. Like planning everything out for 2024, knowing how hard he had to go for four years, knowing what the setup is, setting up the next 40 years in four years. This man's been planning it for 10 years. You just got here and suddenly you're like, ⁓ I don't really agree with the way he with the order he's doing things. You know what? That's fine. But a lot of y'all who are making the complaints aren't in the game. You're not in the game. You're not understanding that you're the soldier now. We're all the soldiers now. Trump's just the general and he only has a few years. Maybe more if if we manage to overturn twenty twenty. And ⁓ I know I've been gone. I haven't had a chance to talk about, you know, the China thing and the electron election integrity thing. ⁓ as you guys know, July has been a a very emotional and intense month for my family. My beloved mother in law passed away. And she was so beloved, she got two funerals, not just one, so in two different states. So that was a lot. And I know that things have been sporadic this summer. I want to apologize for that. But all that to say, I haven't had a lot to say on the China thing, but look, that's not over. The election integrity thing isn't over. My point is this Trump's got a very small amount of time to do about seventy years worth of work. How can he do it without you? He can't. You wanna know how we're gonna deport twenty to forty million people in four years? Well Trump's not gonna do it. ICE is not going to be able to do it. We're going to deport but we can't do it. We can't. But we'll do it with you, with me. Right? We all have to be soldiers. So it's not just about ICE sending ICE into neighborhoods and you know, doing a sweep. I read the other day they've apprehended about ⁓ deportations are are about forty four hundred thousand. For 2026 so far. I mean, we need it to be three times that. But there's only so much manpower and funds available. But the way we'll do it is you'll do it, right? You in your business won't hire illegal aliens, right? You'll be a soldier. Yes, it's going to be cheaper for you to do that. You'll be a soldier and you won't do it. You'll scale down your business. You'll report other business owners who do hire illegal aliens. You'll report them. You'll make it uncomfortable to be a business owner and hire illegal labor. And that will choke that point off, and then that'll be fewer fewer people coming to do that and engage in that. You'll report crimes. You'll ⁓ make a fuss when illegal alien children show up in your child's classroom and all of the resources go to them. You will ⁓ Say something about illegal alien street vendors, you know, you will you will report crimes by illegal aliens, you will refuse to hire them in your home. Like all of that is you too. If you want this solved, you have to be a part of the solution. You can't just be depending on one person. We didn't elect Superman, and I hope we never do. All right. Is there anything else or ⁓ I'm gonna I'm gonna shut it down. ⁓ I guess I'll shut it down. We're gonna come back tomorrow. And and then yeah, I'm off Thursday because it's my birthday on Thursday. So ⁓ yeah, I think I'll leave it there. Had a great time. ⁓ before I go. Had a great time at Teacher Freedom Alliance. Last ⁓ week in Dallas, and I was with my friend Julie, who is a great teacher and an activist for teachers' rights, and Teacher Freedom Alliance president Ryan Walters, you know him from Oklahoma. And it was a conference dedicated to teaching people, ⁓ teachers, how to leave the union, how to advocate for students, advocate for liberty in education. So you'll be seeing some ⁓ some video and reports on that. I did a little bit of work on it on my Substack. And I've got some more video to share with you. But that was a great conference. Thank you for inviting me. Teacher Freedom Alliance, if you're a teacher, you want to leave the union, but you're not sure how, and you're not sure, you know, where you're gonna find your insurance and your coverage and all of that. Teacher Freedom Alliance can help you. Just look them up on X. Start there, Teacher Freedom Alliance. That was a great conference in Dallas. And I met so many great people there, so many great teachers. And I got to meet David Barton from Wall Builders. He's a hero of mine. And one of the reasons why I'm a conservative to this day taught me how to love American history. So with the work over there at Wallb wall builder. So it was really cool to meet him. And ⁓ yeah, thanks for your patience this month as we limp through July and try to put our family back together after what was a huge loss. But I just want to say before I go that ⁓ it was really an honor. It was really an honor to eulogize my mother-in-law, Faith Davis. I wanna thank everybody for your kind wishes. ⁓ we are now through this first part of the morning season, so we got these memorials over with, and that was that was tough for everybody. ⁓ and now we move on to you know, settling into a life where she's missing and that part is gone. And so I do just wanna take this time on my channel, ⁓ to my audience. Just to tell you that Faith Davis was once here. And ⁓ she was a wonderful wife and a beautiful mother, and probably the best mother-in-law that you could ask for, like a dream, to the point where, you know, I've had ex-girlfriends of my husband tell me I just didn't want to give up the in-laws. You know, I was hoping that I could have those in-laws. ⁓ a wonderful person who raised a loving family and ⁓ intelligent and driven children. And ⁓ a wonderful grandmother, her grandkids all loved her to death. She just was the sweetest. And I just wanted to tell you guys, I wanted to put not all of us have the privilege of of of putting out the memories of our loved one publicly and sharing it with the public where their memories may get bigger or at least live on. And I do. So I just wanted to take this opportunity. And I also published her eulogy with my father in law's permission. I published it over at Substack if you want to go over there and look at that and you know, get to know her a little bit better. I'm so grateful. And I want to encourage you all to endeavor to be the type of wife and mother, and also ladies, endeavor to be the type of mother in law. That she was because that's how I experienced her. She didn't raise me. She was my mother in law. And the longer I'm married, the more I realize like how much trouble mother-in-laws can be. And I it's my prayer that I'll get to be like her someday and that I'll have a daughter-in-law that I can embrace and guide and mentor, and ⁓ that I can show her the type of love that Faith Davis offered me. So in loving memory of Faith Ann Davis. I just want to say thank you, mom, for loving us. Thank you for raising a wonderful son who's become a great father himself to his own children. Thank you for being a faithful and loving wife to your husband for sixty-five years. Thank you for all of the change you made in your community and in your family. And most of all, thank you for choosing the Lord, because that's how I know we're gonna see each other again someday. So we mourn but not without hope. And isn't that special? Love you, Mom. Love you guys. Thank you so much for your patience. And we'll see you tomorrow here on the Orange Report. 3 p.m. Pacific. Peace out.
