  Speaker 1: ninety three WIBC, Good morning, the popcorn moment.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Let's go, Let's go, let's go, let's go. It's a
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: story you need to hear to believe, and grab your
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: popcorn because there is more. We are following this crash
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: on the northwest side.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: One person is dead. This is thirty eighth in Michigan.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: The pictures are not pretty, for sure. Traffic has been
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: shut down. You've heard Paul Bodenloss filling in for Matt
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Bear today discussing this.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: We'll keep an eye on it.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: We'll have more throughout the day at WIBC dot com.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I will dig in more to the president's prime time
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: address last night, which was about voter integrity and the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: declassification of documents showing China's trying to be involved in
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: our election, states that have vulnerabilities, a shadow government run
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: by those within our government to keep information about voter
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: integrity issues from the president, a manipulation at daily of
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the Presidential Daily Brief, which is an intelligence assessment that
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: the president gets every single day. And already you have
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: people out there saying, well, this never happened. Oh, this
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: is delusional. Trump is just trying to remove your resolve
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: and respect and faith in our institutions.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: They haven't read anything, they don't care to read anything.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I have no idea what the President said in these
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: declassified documents is going to show that although some things
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: are already out and oh they show it. They show
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: what we already knew. Yet, if you are a belief
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: in a system that might not be working, but it
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: works for your political benefit, you're going to keep.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: That system intact.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: When they say Trump rigs elections, then it's okay. When
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: you question whether or not an election was rigged, then
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: of course you're trying to destroy the institution.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: This is the despicableness that sets up the.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Conversation that Secretary Marco Rubio had just the other day
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: regarding the rise of left wing extremism and left wing violence.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: If you take a look at Noah Rothman's new book
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Blood and Progress, it is this discussion. I was discussing
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: this on my Facebook. My Facebook page has some really
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: ugly characters that clearly have to block and get rid
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of because I think these are the kind of people
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: who are eventually going to come after somebody. I don't
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: know if it'll be me, could be they're going to
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: go after somebody. Like if I were to just read
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: the words, I would say, that's somebody I would keep
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: an eye on.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: And and wonder if my kids are safe.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Like it's that, it's that just level of madness.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Disagree the name calling and everything else.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: It's surreal, and it's it's it's not just you're appropiad
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: or something about Republicans or conservatives.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. I don't know how many.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: More times I could be called a parasite in one week,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: But these people are going for a record. What Marco
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Rubio brings to this conversation that if we take a
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: look at what education has done in the conversation of
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: extremism and violence when the right does it, it's the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: most awful thing in the world. When the left does it.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: It may be tragic, but it was righteous. Marco Rubio's
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: speech here is excellent. I wanted to share with you
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: some of it.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: We are not engaged in some kind of nonsense or
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: some kind of what about ism.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: There is a real issue with violence on the left,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: and if we are not willing to address it and
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: in all the ways it comes, we are going to
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: get destroyed by it.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: And it's the left that needs to address it first.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: This is a distinctive and unique evil.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: It has always been driven by a hatred above all else,
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: a hatred for civilization itself. It is a revolt of
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: the worst against the best, a revolt of the weak
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: and the cowardly.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Against the strong and the good.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: It is perpetrated by those who cannot build, who cannot create,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: who cannot achieve great things, and take their revenge upon
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: the world for their own inadequacy by seeking to destroy
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: those who can. This is what radical leftism is. It
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place and time.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: They can call themselves anti capitalists or anti imperialists, or communists,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: or anarchist or Marxist, but the fundamental character.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Is always the same. It's always the same.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: It is a poisonous resentment, cloaked in the language of
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: equality and justice and liberation, and overwhelming need to tear
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: down what greater men have built, to wreck what is
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: beautiful and what is right on behalf of people who
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: are only filled with ugliness and have nothing else to
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: offer the world. Through violence and through terror, they once
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: again seek to impose their ugliness all of us.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: The old dogma was wrong. The old dogma was wrong.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: None of this is driven by idealism. It is not utopian.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: In fact, it is the opposite. One of the criticisms
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: you sometimes hear of communism, for example, is that it
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: sounds good in theory, but it never works in practice.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: That's actually not true. Communism does not sound good in theory.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: The world that envisions for all of us is small, flat, gray,
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: leveled of all exception, drained of all that is good
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: and noble in the human soul. The world that envisions
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: is a world without courage, a world without creativity or ambition,
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: a world without heroes or glory or great causes to
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: strive towards, without a world without miracles, without myths, without
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: men who rise above the rest to do incredible and
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: extraordinary things. And the world communism and visions is a
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: world without God. For these architects of revolutionary violence, the
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: towering achievement of our civilization for them, it's an unbearable humiliation,
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: a reminder of what they cannot do and a reminder
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: of what they cannot be.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: So they choose instead to destroy.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: They attack pipelines, they attack railroads, they attack power grids
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: and laboratories, the physical embodied symbols of power, an invention
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: and achievement. This is the nature of the terrorism we
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: face today. They despise the West because the West is great.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Jd. Vance cannot compete with that.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you were announcing you were running for president,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: but weren't announcing you were running for president while taking
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: on what the president has been saying about communists.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: That's how you do it.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: And it has the added benefit of not only being right,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: but being poetic. Yeah, there's a lot of hateful stuff
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: and your social media feed get off social media. Yes,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: those people do creep into your real life, and yes
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: it's a concern. And yes we have seen threats against
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Supreme Court justice and then members of Congress to try
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: and influence votes, and they try and suppress you with violence.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: The answer is, yes, this is what is happening. You're
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: not crazy. It's real happening right in front of you,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and you're watching it. They have to lose in November,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: and then they have to lose into November from now
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: and every November, and how you are a part of
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: helping them lose. You got to pull your kids out
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: from this education nightmare, these universities, these high schools, these
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: private schools. You have to love your kid more because
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: the world that they who claim to love your kid
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: have for your kid, that future they envision, there's nothing
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: loving about that. Great work by Secretary of Rubio
