Bernie Spoke to Voters — And The Left Just Canceled Him for It (Ep.210) · V

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Bongino Report Early Edition. We've
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: got a lot of stories to get to today on
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: this Friday. Terrifying new data on how the COVID vaccine
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: affects pregnant mothers and their babies. Snap is to ban
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: junk food purchases. Montana bans lab-grown meat. A judge blocks
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Trump's plan to shrink the education department. SCOTUS fails to
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: defend religious freedom. This one's crazy. A trans-identifying male pedophile
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: is allegedly plotting to create an army of babies by
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: impregnating female prison inmates. Democrats raise millions to make their
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: own Joe Rogan, even though they had their own Joe Rogan.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: His name is Joe Rogan. And the left cancels Bernie Sanders.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: All this on Bongina Report, early edition.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: This deception was institutionalized in the now infamous Shimabukuro study
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: published on April 21, 2021, in the digital version of
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: the New England Journal of Medicine. Twenty-one authors claimed the
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: miscarriage rate was 12.6%, but the raw data revealed an
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: 82% miscarriage rate in women vaccinated during the first trimester.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: This figure mirrors the effects of chemical abortion drugs such
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: as RU486.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: That was Dr.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: James Thorpe slamming everyone during a congressional hearing, slamming everyone
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: who coerced pregnant women into taking the COVID vaccine. And guys,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: I think that we are just, we're just beginning to
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: scratch the surface of what this experimental jab did to people.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Because somehow the data just keeps getting worse and worse.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: This next soundbite, from the hearing. It's going to make
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: your stomach churn.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Take a listen.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: We identified 37 adverse pregnancy outcomes significantly associated with COVID-19 vaccine,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: including miscarriage, stillbirth, birth defects, cervical insufficiency, premature rupture membranes,
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: preterm birth, and death of the newborn. Lynn and colleagues
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: in a major journal publication documented that the COVID-19 vaccine
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: traverses the placenta, enters the fetal blood, and bioactively produces
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: spike protein in the placenta and the lining of the uterus. Recently,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: animal studies revealed the mRNA COVID vaccine causes the destruction
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: of 60% of the ovarian reserve in rats.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just shocked, and if you consider that
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: we have a fertility crisis in this country. We have
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: a growing population crisis.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Across the West.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: And now we're seeing this data come out that a
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: vaccine we were told was safe and effective, that was
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: necessary for everyone to take, was having this kind of
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: effect on pregnant mothers and their babies. I mean, it
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: is a scandal, a massive, massive scandal. I'm still stunned
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: that this was unilaterally pushed on the entire population, on
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: people who are not even at risk of dying from COVID.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: If you were young, if you're healthy, you have no
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: other underlying conditions, there was no reason for you to
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: fear death from COVID. There was no reason for you
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: to take an experimental vaccine. We had no long-term studies
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: on the COVID jabs, no care for even medical freedom.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: You couldn't even make the choice for yourself. If you
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: were on a college campus, you were a federal employee,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: you were in the military, you worked at a company
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: that mandated it. This week, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Investigations released a paper accusing the Biden admin of deliberately
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: downplaying and delaying warnings about heart-related risks related to mRNA
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: COVID-19 vaccines, particularly mitocarditis in young people. I know multiple
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: young men, multiple young men who got myocarditis after taking
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: the COVID vaccine. I'm sure many of you do too.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Drop a comment.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I'm seeing some people already indicate that they know people
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: who've had this.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Happen to them.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: It's way too common. We had inklings of it right away.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: We knew something was off. The anecdotal evidence was suggesting
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: that that it was having heart effects on young men particularly.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: But apparently, federal health officials.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Had alarming data in hand as early as February 2021,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: including alerts from Israel's Ministry of Health, but they chose
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: not to warn the public. The CDC and FDA, no joke,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: scrapped plans, we have documented evidence of this, scrapped plans
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: to issue an urgent national alert, and instead, they quietly
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: buried watered-down clinical considerations on the CDC's website. Clinical considerations.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Not the massive, you know, blaring red lights, you know,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: alarm bells, but instead, we got clinical considerations and it
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: was buried on the CDC website. Just 18 days before
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: the CDC finally posted a vague advisory, the FDA approved
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the Pfizer vaccine for kids 12 to 15 with zero
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: mention of the mitocarditis risk.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: It was a massive, massive scandal.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, basically everyone was required to get this jab. Companies, schools,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the military, federal workers, all forced to take it. And
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: every day we learn more and more about how critical
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: information was hidden from us.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: We were gaslit.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you dare to suggest that there were
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: potentially negative side effects to this vaccine, vaccine, this jab,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: you were called a conspiracy theorist, a spreader of misinformation.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: I've talked about this before. Ellie Puentes, you can look
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: up her name. She was on Tucker Carlson when he
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: was still at Fox News. And a friend of mine
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: went to Union College in New York City, in New
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: York State, and she was vaccine injured, This was verified
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: by her doctor. She said, I cannot take the booster.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I can't do it. I've already been vaccine injured. But
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: the school had not only had a vaccine mandate, they
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: had a booster mandate. And despite her being vaccine injured,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: they said, if you don't take the booster, we will
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: expel you.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: And they did.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: They expelled her. She was expelled from university, first in
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: her family to attend college. First generation college student, a
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: really smart young woman. She was vaccine injured, forced to
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: take the vaccine, and then told she'd be expelled if
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: she didn't take the booster.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: And she didn't.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: She was willing to get expelled, and she left the school.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: So I mean, there are so many stories like this.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Everybody has these examples.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: People died. People were hurt.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: At the very least, taking this jab should have been
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: a personal choice, and it wasn't.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: People were fired. They were expelled.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I think for a very long time, this country has
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: been bought out by big pharma and big food. And
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: it's going to take some massive overhauls, some serious shifts
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: in values and a return to the science, but the
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: actual science that they say that they love so much
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: in order to reclaim American health. And I think that's
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: what this admin is doing. It's going to be painful,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: but I think it's what they're doing. Because yesterday, Secretary
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Brooke Rawlins announced that the administration is set to sign
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: orders banning the use of food stamps to buy processed foods.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Take a listen.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: The second thing is that you mentioned, sir, in your
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: remarks that we are on track to sign multiples of
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: SNAP waivers to get junk food and sugary drinks out
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: of our food stamp system. And I am so proud.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: So this is huge news.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: And let me tell you guys, there are a lot
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: of people, I think either dumb or paid for by
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Big Food, saying that this is government overreach and the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: government shouldn't tell you what to eat or drink.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: What to put in your body.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And I can sympathize with that on an argumentative level
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: for most things.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: I just talked about.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: It when I said we should have had a choice
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: whether or not we wanted to take the COVID jab.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: That doesn't apply here. That's a very brain dead argument.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: If the taxpayers are paying for your food, you are
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: going to not poison yourself with said food.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Like we're just, we're not going to pay for you
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: to poison yourself.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Just as SNAP funds can't be used for alcohol or tobacco.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Banning junk food ensures that taxpayer dollars support nutritional and
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: public health goals. If you want to decide what you
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: eat or drink, that's great.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You can pay for it.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: This is to help low-income families access nutritious, wholesome foods,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: not to subsidize junk food that contributes to long-term health
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: problems and rising healthcare costs. Your chance of getting off
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: public assistance is a lot lower if.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: You're not chronically ill. This is pretty simple stuff.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: All right, also this week, Montana banned the production of
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: lab-grown meat.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Now, this one is interesting.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Not as straightforward as using food stamps for junk food.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: So the law bans the production and distribution of cell-cultured
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: meat products in Montana, and it defines these products as
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the concept of meat, including but not limited to muscle cells,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: fat cells, connective tissue, blood, and other components produced via
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: cell-cultured rather than from a whole slaughtered animal. So starting
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: October 1st, any... By the way, my birthday, October 1st.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: So now you guys clock it in. Wish me a
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: happy birthday on October 1st. But any retail food establishment
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that manufactures, sells, or distributes cell culture products risks license
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: suspension beginning October 1st. And Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and Indiana
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: have implemented very similar bans. Chat, we're going to need
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: you to weigh in here. We are going to need
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: you to weigh in here because I'm a traditionalist. I'm
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: a conservative. I am not a libertarian. And I say
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: ban petri dish protein, the Bill Gates brisket. I am
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: not interested in lab-grown meat because this stuff is an abomination.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: We could put up a picture of it, Mikey. It
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: looks disgusting. I feel that this is an offense to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: God himself. I'm truly, deeply, deeply offended.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: By lab-grown meat. I think it's disgusting. I think it's horrible.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: But I'm going to guess that my libertarian husband and producer, Michael,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: would say that the abomination is telling people that they
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: cannot choose to buy and sell lab-grown meat, not the
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: lab-grown meat itself.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Is that true, Michael?
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: You're correct, but I also don't want them to spend
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: government money, like in the snap program, buying this meat stuff.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Well, okay. So Michael, you, so obviously we, we agree
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: on not poisoning yourself with public funds for, you know, for, for,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: for food stamps, but do you think that people should
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: have the freedom to buy lab grown meat with their
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: own money at the grocery store?
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: Absolutely.
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: Because if you ban lab grown meat, what stops from
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: someone from banning regular cow meat, because it's bad for
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: the environment.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, I get that argument.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Again, we have to have the chat weigh in. And
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think Michael would ever eat lab-grown meat.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Never.
• 11:49
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: You think it's disgusting, too.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: But you say people should just have the freedom to
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: choose what they want to eat and drink with their
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: own money. Here's what I'll say, Michael and chat. I
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: really think that lab-grown meat is not just an alternative.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I think this is a Trojan horse to justify the
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: eventual banning of traditional meat, real meat, all together. And
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: that's why I'm like, I don't even want to F
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: with this. Let's just ban it now. Because, and we've
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: talked about this before on the show, there's a group
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: called the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group. It's made up
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: of nearly 100 cities across the globe, many of them
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: American cities. They're backed by the WEF, Bloomberg Philanthropies. And
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: they have a goal to this group that includes American cities,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: of eradicating meat consumption by 2030 in the name of
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: combating climate change. The United Nations heavily pushes plant-based alternatives
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from livestock. The WEF, World
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Economic Forum, routinely highlights lab-grown meat and insect-based protein as
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: necessary innovations to replace traditional farming.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: And these people, they're not... individuals who respect autonomy of
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: the masses. They don't.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: And in fact, climate change itself, the whole climate change
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: alarmism is an excuse to limit personal freedoms of regular
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Americans and Westerners, frankly, across the globe. So what I
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: think that this move is meant to do is here's
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: your meat alternative. And eventually we're not going to have
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: any meat. We're going to ban meat consumption already. They
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: are waging war on farmers. Look at what's happened to
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: the Dutch farmers, where they are trying to literally shut
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: down farms to say, we're going to promote the environment.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: We want to make sure that our food consumption is sustainable.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: And they are buying them up. They are taxing them
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: to the point where they'll have to close down their farms.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Even here in the United States of America, It's very
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: difficult to survive as a farmer. So I think the
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: long goal here is to limit and eventually eradicate all
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: traditional meat consumption. Michael's coming in with an argument, a
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: counter argument.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Mikey.
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: No, I'm just coming in to say that the chat
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: is 90-10 your way.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: So what do you think about my take here, Michael,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: that I think that this is a Trojan horse?
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, they always use this stuff to make
• 14:19
  Speaker 6: people angry and be like, oh, go ban something.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Michael's still a libertarian at heart. Michael Knowles was on
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: the show recently and he was like, I told him
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: that Michael was a libertarian, that sometimes we clash a
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: little bit on things because I'm a conservative and traditionalist.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: And Michael Knowles said, oh, I didn't know. that you
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: were in a mixed marriage. I was like, I guess we.
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: Kind of are. One of the funniest things I've ever heard.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: It was very funny.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Because libertarian, really, it just means liberal. I'm sorry to
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: the libertarians in the chat and to Mikey.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: You guys are just liberals.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: You are.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: We're based liberals. I don't know about that. I don't
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: know about that, Michael.
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: We still want to see Comey in jail, so it's okay.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: That's true. That's true.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: There are some very reasonable libertarians. Some of them, not
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: so much. And I cannot agree with them on, but
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: of course I married one. So there's definitely common ground
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: to be had with libertarians. So synthetic meat, of course,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: is being pushed as this climate solution. They want to
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: meet this false moral imperative because the world is going
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: to boil over or whatever.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: And what I'm.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Saying is, I don't think this is going to be
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: a choice eventually. I think this is being pushed on
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: us to eventually take away the choice for traditional meat consumption.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Here is, and this is why I say this, because
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: it gets scary. Here is World Economic Forum bioethicist talking
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: about genetically modifying people so they can become allergic to meat.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: This is unreal. Take a listen.
• 15:48
  Speaker 8: So I'll give two examples. So one is that people
• 15:53
  Speaker 8: eat too much meat, right? And if they were to
• 15:55
  Speaker 8: cut down on their consumption on meat, then it would
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: actually really help the planet. But people are not willing
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: to give up meat. You know, some people will be
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: willing to, but other people, they may be willing to,
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: but they sort of, they have a weakness of will.
• 16:09
  Speaker 8: They say, wow, this steak is just too juicy.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: I can't do it.
• 16:12
  Speaker 8: I'm one of those, by the way.
• 16:13
  Speaker 7: So, you know, but so here's the thought, right?
• 16:16
  Speaker 8: So it turns out that we know a lot about,
• 16:18
  Speaker 8: so we have these intolerance to, so I, for example,
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: I have milk intolerance. I'm a And some people are
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: intolerant to crayfish. So possibly we can use human engineering
• 16:30
  Speaker 8: to make it the case that we're intolerant to certain
• 16:32
  Speaker 8: kinds of meat, to certain kinds of bovine proteins. And
• 16:36
  Speaker 8: there's actually analogs of this in life. There's this thing
• 16:38
  Speaker 8: called the long-star tick. where if it bites you, you
• 16:42
  Speaker 8: will become allergic to meat. I can sort of describe
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: the mechanism. So that's something that we can do through
• 16:47
  Speaker 8: human engineering. We can kind of possibly address really big
• 16:51
  Speaker 8: world problems through human engineering.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Like he's just a total creep.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: And we're over here talking about wanting to preserve free will,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: freedom of choice, freedom for the consumer, while they're manufacturing
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: fake meat explicitly to limit our free will and suggesting
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: that we genetically engineer humans to be allergic to meat itself.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: And the other thing I'll say is if we.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Don't know the long-term effects of this, how do we
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: even know that it's safe to consume in the first place?
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: I think just like the COVID vaccine, we have no
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: idea what the effects could be on the human body.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: We're already facing a health crisis in this country. So
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: let's just keep eating real meat consumed by people since
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: the dawn of man, Adam and Eve themselves, and we'll
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: wait Until we have more information on fake lab-grown frankenmeat whatever.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Bill Gates brisket, as I said before.
• 17:43
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: We have some very disappointing news to get to. Some
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: court updates for you all. I hate to do this,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: but we have to. A federal judge just blocked the
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Trump administration from laying off thousands of Department of Education
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: employees and from taking major steps to downsize the department entirely,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: which is exactly what President Trump called for with his
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: March executive order on the subject. President Trump has directed
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Education Secretary Linda McMahon to begin closing the department, slashing
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the bloated staff by 50 percent, and transferring student loan
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: duties to the small business administration.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: So really just limiting.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: The amount of waste that's happening at the Department of Education,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: streamlining how the department is run, and limiting just, again,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: the amount of power and waste that's happening within the department.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: And this was, of course, all a long-promised mission from
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: President Trump back when he was still running.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: But U.S.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: District Judge Myung Joon slammed the brakes on this entire
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: move by the Trump admin. And he ruled yesterday that
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: the administration can't fire employees or restructure the department without
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Congress's explicit approval. And he even ordered that employees who
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: had already been laid off be reinstated by President Trump.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: So I want to be clear about something. This was
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: not some kind of reckless power grab. The judge is saying, well,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: if we want to abolish the agency, it has to
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: be done by Congress. But Trump and McMahon both acknowledge
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: that only Congress can formally shut down the department. And
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: what they did was launch a legal measured reorganization of
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: the department, something that is, of course, well within executive authority.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: And yet here we are, a.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Single federal judge halting the president's effort to make the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: government more efficient, which is his job. And what's really
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: interesting are the plaintiffs behind this. We have unions, states,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: entrenched interests, the same people who've spent years benefiting from
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: a And the kicker is they couldn't point to any
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: actual harm. The case was built on maybes, coulds, and
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: what ifs, which doesn't meet the legal ban, the legal
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: bar for stopping executive action, but the judge ruled in
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: their favor anyway.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: So we're watching yet again.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Yet again, a judge acting like a political gatekeeper, and
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: overriding the will of the president, but really the will
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: of the American people who elected the president and expect
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: him to use the constitutional authority that he is entitled to.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Checks and balances are out the window, guys. This is
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: frankly unprecedented and a constitutional crisis. You keep hearing that term,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: constitutional crisis from the political left. What's a crisis is
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: when you have Random federal judges stepping in and inhibiting
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: the Trump admin from doing its job, from doing what
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: it has every right to do based on the Constitution.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: We have courts dictating how the executive runs federal agencies,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: ignoring the law and deferring to hypotheticals. Now, here's what's
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: really interesting. And some of you might disagree with me
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: on this. This is, I think, an important thing to
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: point out, though. I want you to take a look
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: at this judge, Myung Joon. Do you think that his
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: ancestors potentially were involved in the American Civil War? Do
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: you think that his grandfather fought in World War II
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: on behalf of the United States? Do you think that
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: he was around for the Civil Rights Movement?
• 21:52
  Speaker 8: No.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: This man was born in Seoul, South Korea. Myung is.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: in Massachusetts, of course, but we've covered on the show
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: before that in the U S district court for DC,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: five of the 15 sitting judges. So one third were
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: born outside of the United States of America. And all
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: five have been involved in high profile cases, opposing former
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: president Donald Trump's legitimate executive powers regarding things like immigration
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: and military standards. So now yet again, we have a
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: foreign born federal judge hampering the Trump agenda. Guys, I've
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: said it once, I will say it again. For the
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: sake of national sovereignty and the integrity of self-government, it
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: is imperative that like the presidency, federal judges and members
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: of Congress be natural born citizens. Individuals whose worldview values
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: and loyalties were formed entirely within the fabric of American society.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Sovereignty isn't just laws and borders. It's the shared cultural
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: and historical identity of those entrusted with power. I do
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: not think that it is a coincidence or should go
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: unnoticed that this man was not born in the United
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: States of America. Leaders who hold the power to shape
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: our laws and interpret our Constitution, I think have to
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: have a deep and lived connection to our nation, the
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: nation that they serve. Not just legal status, but lineage, history, experience.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Letting foreign-born individuals like Judge Boasberg or Ilhan Omar run
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: America risks nothing. competing allegiances, foreign influence, worldviews shaped outside
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: of the American tradition?
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: It's pretty simple.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: We require the president to be a natural born citizen
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: to ensure undivided loyalty. And we should expect the same
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: from our lawmakers and judges. I think sovereignty demands nothing less.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: And many of you will say, well, there are so
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: many great immigrants who have come to this country and
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: they are patriots and they're wonderful. I've talked about it
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: on the show.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: My grandmother is one of them.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: My yaya from an immigrant from Spain is an amazing patriot.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Like she is, she would be so much better than
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: many people in Congress or in the federal courts who
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: are natural born citizens. The problem is you don't always
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: get yayas and there is a risk in allowing foreign
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: born individuals from running our country.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: This is just ensuring.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: That the people who are leading us and making decisions
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: for us have a deep connection here, a lineage here,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: something formed here. There is a protection and a respect
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: for American sovereignty when we do that. And this is
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: not something unprecedented that I'm saying. The president of the
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: United States has to be a natural born citizen. All
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I'm saying is we should expand that out. We should
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: say that for Congress and we should say that for judges.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: This is pretty simple and I don't think it's unreasonable.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: All right, I have another disappointing ruling that we have
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: to cover. Yesterday, I The Supreme Court failed to intervene
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: in one of the most explosive education and religious liberty
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: cases in recent memory.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: This was deeply disappointing. So the high.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Court refused to overturn an Oklahoma Supreme Court decision that
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: blocked the creation of the country's first public religious charter school.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: The vote was actually a rare 4-4 deadlock. And Justice
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Amy Coney Barrett, of course, recused herself, leaving no majority
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: and no written explanation. So here is what is at stake.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: In 2023, Oklahoma's charter school board approved a Catholic virtual
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: school as a public religious charter school.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: And this was a bold move.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: For the first time ever, it would have opened the
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: door for faith-based institutions to operate under the public charter model.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: But the state's own Republican attorney general sued to shut
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: it down, claiming that it violated both the Oklahoma and U.S.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: constitutions by supporting a sectarian institution with public funds. Oklahoma's
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Supreme Court agreed and axed the deal. The case made
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: its way all the way up to SCOTUS, where the
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Supreme Court, of course, ultimately did nothing, thanks to Amy
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: Coney Barrett, leaving the Oklahoma ruling in place and the
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: constitutional question unresolved. So what is wrong with this entire ordeal?
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: I believe this is a full-blown betrayal of America's founding principles.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: The idea that a religious charter school can't exist because
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: it might violate separation of church and state, pure fiction.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Born not from the Constitution, but from a string of
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: anti-Christian Supreme Court decisions in the mid-20th century. Never the
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: intention of the founders. And these rulings didn't defend religious freedom.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: They gutted it. inventing a version of secularism that treats
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: faith as something dangerous to public life. Basically, the courts
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: didn't just misread the First Amendment, they rewrote it. The
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: founders never meant for government to wall off religion from
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: the public square. And in fact, we have many founding
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: fathers repeating over and over again that our Constitution and
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: the freedoms and the Bill of Rights, like all these things,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: they can't exist unless the American people are moral and religious.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: They didn't want to have sectarian fighting, as there was
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: in Europe between Protestants and Catholics and then different Protestant denominations.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: But the intention was always that the American populace be Christian.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Many of our laws, actually all of our laws, including
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: the Constitution, were informed by centuries of Christian thought. The
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: West itself is Christian at its core. What the founding fathers, again,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: feared was a national church, not a local school that
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: teaches kids the Ten Commandments. That was never the fear.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: But thanks to decades of activist judges, we've ended up
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: with a system where any belief is welcome in public
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: life except Christianity. Because if you think that public schools
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: aren't pushing some kind of religious dogma on kids, you're wrong.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: What kids are getting in public school right now is straight, radical,
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: left-wing paganism. where we're told that gender is a social construct,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: that they're exposed to explicit sexual content on purpose to
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: radicalize them, fear-mongered with the climate cult, told the world
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: is going to boil over within their lifetimes, within the
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: next five years.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: Everything about public school is religious.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: It's just pagan. It's pagan, and it's deeply destructive. So
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: there's no neutrality here. It's actually openly hostile to faith,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: and it's become the de facto religion of this country,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: that being secularism and paganism. And every other social problem
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: that we're seeing in society, I believe, is stemming from
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: this issue, from this American identity crisis, that America has
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: forgotten who we are, to the point where we will
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: promote the school and allow them to push for secularism
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: and radical leftism, which is, of course, religion in itself,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: and get angry and defensive, even on the political right,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: because remember, this is a Republican attorney general that did this,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: to say we can't have religious schools funded by taxpayer dollars,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: because that would be bad. But of course, we could
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: have the Church of Satan. We could have the Church
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: of Satan promoted by the entire education system, public education system,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: which is what I think leftism truly is.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: All right, I want to get to, I think, an
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: example of.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: The identity crisis that we're in, the inability of our
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: country and our leaders to make moral calls. that are,
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: that should be straightforward because apparently a transgender identifying male pedophile,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: let me just say that again, transgender identifying male pedophile
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: who is being held at the Shakopee, Minnesota female prison
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: has been hoarding bottles of semen and in hopes of
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: impregnating female prisoners. Sean Windingland, 35-year-old, currently serving 36 years
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: for sexually assaulting two six-year-old relatives and sharing the footage online,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: was transferred to the Shakopee Female Prison in Minnesota, which
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: touts itself as a place that gives inmates a place
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: to bloom. Sean was placed into the state prison after
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: a change in policy that allowed men to say they
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: are trans women and be housed alongside actual women. The
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: accusation made that he is planning to impregnate all the
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: females in the prison was made by another inmate, Jamie Alley,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: who also says that she regularly encounters inmate Bradley Shaviro,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: another transgender inmate who goes by the name Aurora and
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: is serving a life sentence for murder. And per Alley,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Bradley apparently is frequently describing graphic sexual encounters with other
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: female inmates, making everybody very uncomfortable, very fearful, especially because
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: many of these women say that they are victims of
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: domestic violence, of sexual abuse, and feel very threatened in
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: the prison. Ali says that she's planning on filing a
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: lawsuit against the Department of Corrections once she is released. Now,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: the Department of Corrections spokesman denies Ali's claims. And here's
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: what I'll say. I actually don't even care if this
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: is true or not. Like, it's obviously an allegation made
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: by an inmate, It could be real.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: It could be fake.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: There's also a power imbalance here. Whatever she says, people
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: are going to assume that she's lying and believe the
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Department of Corrections instead. The problem here is that we
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: have a pedophile, trans-identifying man in the prison in the
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: first place. Men should not be in women's prisons or
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: locker rooms or shelters. We're putting women in very dangerous situations,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: and it's wrong. Men cannot become women.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: It's impossible. And this is why I said that we
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: need to authentically turn to the science, the actual science.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: We are basically living under a very dogmatic and tyrannical
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: theocracy where the religion is paganism. And you can't say
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: that men cannot become women. Otherwise you're guilty of heresy.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: So the far left has a very long track record
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: of sidelining science when it conflicts with ideological goals.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: This is what they do.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: In the Soviet Union, Marxist ideology led to the embrace
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: of Lysenkoism, a pseudoscientific theory that asserts plants and even
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: animals could inherit traits acquired during their lifetime. And so
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: the Soviets read Marxist texts to plants.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: They took out their.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Books, read Marxist texts, and they believed that would somehow
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: encourage the plants to grow better. It was rude in
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: this belief that plants like people could be modeled by
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: their surroundings and reeducated. What happened is it caused a famine,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: like massive, massive, massive problems in agriculture and just in
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: farming in general.
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: You fast forward to the 1960s and 70s.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Far left environmental activists pushed wildly exaggerated predictions of global
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: cooling and overpopulation crisis, calling for dramatic population control measures
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: based on this flawed science. And now we're being told
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: that the earth is boiling over. Across the history of leftism,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: when science becomes inconvenient to the far left's worldview, it
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: is not reexamined or debated. It's simply rejected, redefined and censored.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: This is always what they do. And what's amazing to
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: me is I think the lack of self-awareness. We're told
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: that the left is the party of the science, that
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: the political right and conservatives and Christians, they are anti-data,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: they are anti-learning, they're anti-intellectual. We talked about a few
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: days ago, oh, the right is anti-intellectual.
• 33:50
  Speaker 8: Really?
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: Like you tell me what's anti-intellectual and you tell me
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: who's dogmatic about their beliefs. And we get these crazy
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: stories about what's happening in these women-only spaces. And again,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: these are people who claim to defend and love and
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: care about women. And here are women saying, I'm a
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: victim of sexual abuse. I feel deeply uncomfortable with the situation.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: And they're like, well, you're a liar. And this didn't happen.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: And even if it didn't happen, the men shouldn't be there.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: They shouldn't.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: And like I said, there's a self-awareness problem happening on
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: the political left right now.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Because apparently.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: Democrats are spending top dollar to find the next Joe
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Rogan for the left. After the 2024 election defeat, liberal
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: strategists began pushing the party's mega donors to spend tens
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: of millions of dollars to develop an army of left-leaning
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: online influencers to help the party compete culturally with President
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. This is per a report from the New
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: York Times. This is also from the New York Times.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: The quiet effort amounts to an audacious, skeptics might say
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: desperate bet, that Democrats can buy more cultural relevance online
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: despite the fact that casually right-leaning touchstones like Mr. Rogan's
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: podcast were not billed by political donors and did not
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: rise overnight. So this is actually a very good point
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: made by the New York Times.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Of all places.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Because Joe Rogan was on the left. Like, Tons of
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: now so-called right-leaning podcasters are just normal people, many of
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: them leftists or liberals, who have criticized Trump, who have
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: nuanced opinions, and who see things like men and women's
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: prisons and go, yeah, that's crazy. According to the report,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: a group of liberal operatives met in Washington after the
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: election and decided to come up with a for-profit media company.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: It's called And Media, or Achieve Narrative Dominance. And this
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: is to financially support social media influencers. And the company
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: aims to raise $ 45 million over the next four years.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: They've already raised 7 million reportedly. And I guess the
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: company is.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: Going to directly fund influencers to help produce their content. Obviously,
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think this is going to work because today
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: what people want more than anything, more than anything, I
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: think is authenticity.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: They want realness. What Joe Rogan has proven is that
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: he's just a guy. with some thoughts.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: He's just a guy who's interested in learning and thinking,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: and he'll have a conversation with anybody. And he isn't
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: bought by anyone. He isn't controlled by anyone. And his
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: views have evolved over time because again, he is a
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: real person and that's what people do.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: Their opinions change.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: And in the age of AI, where there's so much
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: question about what's real and what's not, and you have
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: so many influencers, Even on the political right, this is
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: happening on our side too. Influencers taking money from special
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: interests or pining for access in the Democratic or Republican parties.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: So they're saying things they don't really believe or think.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: I think in this environment, authenticity is so valuable. And
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: I think the second that it gets out that one
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: of these influencers is funded by this achieve narrative dominance group.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: No one's going to listen. Because automatically we go, oh,
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: it's fake. It's bought. This is unreal.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: And it's not going to land with people. And I
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: think the second problem here, the left is going through
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: it right now. They're not doing too hot. And it's
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: not that they don't have voices standing up for them.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: It's that they don't have a voice at all in
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: this moment. What I'm trying to say is you can
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: have all the influencers you want, but if you don't
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: know what you're trying to say, what.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Are you going to achieve?
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: They don't know who they are anymore. Bernie Sanders recently
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: did what all Democrats should do. He went into enemy
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: territory to meet people where they're at. He went on
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: comedian Andrew Schultz's podcast. It's called Flagrant, the Flagrant podcast.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: And let me just say before I play this that,
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: like Joe Rogan, Andrew Saltz does not fit neatly into
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: a traditional political category. He has described himself as a
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: lifelong Democrat, but he's critical of identity politics and the
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: left's abandonment of the working class. Far leftists have responded
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: to Bernie going on this podcast that many young men
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: listen to, a demo the Democrats need, with so much anger.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: They are furious that Bernie Sanders dared to go on
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: this show. So I'm going to play this video for you.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: This is a TikToker talking about this Andrew Schultz podcast,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: slamming Bernie Sanders for going on the show. And just
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: so we're clear, we are reacting to a reaction of
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: this podcast.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: So you guys understand what's going on. Take a listen.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Followers are saying they have a racism problem, a misogyny problem.
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: Do you think that's a super PAC thing behind that? No,
• 38:56
  Speaker 7: it was the Democratic establishment.
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: Oh, wow.
• 38:59
  Speaker 10: And said that we were sexist and we were racist
• 39:01
  Speaker 10: and bigoted. It's almost like it's the exact same strategy
• 39:03
  Speaker 10: to get.
• 39:03
  Speaker 11: You out of there.
• 39:04
  Speaker 5: Bernie Sanders doesn't pander to racist white men. Whose podcast
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: is he on? He's aligning himself with the person who
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: literally engaged in racist behavior, racist rhetoric, sexist behavior, sexist rhetoric.
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: And then he's trying to relate to Bernie Sanders. This
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: is what I'm saying.
• 39:20
  Speaker 7: And you got to what we call identity politics.
• 39:22
  Speaker 9: You're black, you're wonderful, you're tremendous, you're gay, you're the
• 39:24
  Speaker 9: greatest human being on earth.
• 39:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah and rather than say what do you what do
• 39:29
  Speaker 7: you stand.
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: For and there it is the identity politics dog was
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: so all the same conservative rhetoric all the same conservative
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: tactics but i'm everything under the sun for saying that
• 39:36
  Speaker 5: bernie sanders is not the person that you think he
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: is because he literally does the same things that white
• 39:42
  Speaker 5: men do.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Okay so bernie is saying on this podcast.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Hey the identity politics it's not a good look We
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: are bleeding as a party.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: We aren't focused on what matters. We aren't meeting people.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: And he's saying this on a podcast of a lifelong
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: Democrat disillusioned with the party, presumably with listeners who are
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: also disillusioned. It's a perfect platform for him. And the
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: reaction from young people on the far left is to
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: call him a racist, to slam him for daring to
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: speak to a comedian who has told jokes that this
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: lib beta doesn't like. The purity culture on the left,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: the radicalism, the refusal to relate to normal people or
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: care about universal issues is what is killing them. And
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: paying an influencer to give off talking points for a
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: party in a civil war with itself isn't going to
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: do any good. If anything, people, especially young people, are
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: going to think that they're more fake. I want you
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: to listen to Bernie and Andrew Saltz digging a little
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: deeper into this existential crisis currently being faced by the
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party.
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: This is really good stuff.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: And again, something that unilaterally is being rejected.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: By young left-wingers.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: That TikTok I showed you, there are dozens of videos
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: just like it, millions of views collectively. I just gave
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: you one example. But here is a really powerful clip,
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: I think, from this podcast with Bernie and Schultz.
• 41:08
  Speaker 10: The problem I think a lot of voters had is
• 41:09
  Speaker 10: like they didn't even know if it was her. We
• 41:11
  Speaker 10: didn't even know if Biden was president. We didn't even
• 41:13
  Speaker 10: know if these were her talking points. And we felt
• 41:16
  Speaker 10: that over the last four elections, Democrats, we felt that
• 41:21
  Speaker 10: we didn't have a say on who could be president.
• 41:24
  Speaker 10: We talk a lot about the Republicans being autocrats and
• 41:27
  Speaker 10: oligarchs and taking over democracy. But from the Democrat perspective.
• 41:32
  Speaker 10: And I'm a lifelong Democrat. I felt like the Democratic
• 41:35
  Speaker 10: Party completely removed the democratic process from its constituents.
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: And I think they need to have some accountability of that.
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: No argument here.
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: I don't mean for you.
• 41:45
  Speaker 10: I wanted you to... 2016, I was like, this is
• 41:48
  Speaker 10: going to happen. This guy's going to do it. And
• 41:49
  Speaker 10: it felt like they stole it from me. And I'll
• 41:52
  Speaker 10: be honest, it broke my heart when you supported him.
• 41:56
  Speaker 7: Look, but you have, in the world that I live in,
• 41:59
  Speaker 7: you got a choice.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: And.
• 42:02
  Speaker 9: I mean, a lot of people, including my wife, agree
• 42:04
  Speaker 9: with you. But, you know, you're down to a choice.
• 42:08
  Speaker 9: Is it going to be Hillary Clinton or is it
• 42:09
  Speaker 9: going to be Donald Trump?
• 42:11
  Speaker 7: Not a great choice. But it ended up being him anyway,
• 42:13
  Speaker 7: so why don't we burn it down?
• 42:16
  Speaker 9: Well, because it's easy to say burning it down means
• 42:19
  Speaker 9: that children are not going to have children. you know,
• 42:22
  Speaker 9: food to eat, that the schools will deteriorate, people will
• 42:25
  Speaker 9: not have health care.
• 42:26
  Speaker 7: I got it. And I, you know, I'm an elected official.
• 42:27
  Speaker 7: I got to represent the people. That's fair. I can't
• 42:29
  Speaker 7: turn my back on.
• 42:30
  Speaker 10: But then could we not also say if ostensibly there
• 42:33
  Speaker 10: hasn't been a fair primary for the Democrats since 2008,
• 42:35
  Speaker 10: are they not also a threat to democracy?
• 42:38
  Speaker 7: We often hear. Fair enough. That is, that is, yeah,
• 42:42
  Speaker 7: I'm not going to argue with that point.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: He just called the Democratic Party a threat to democracy.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: And this is huge. And again, I have to underscore that.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: the type of platform that he's on right now. He's
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: talking to Andrew Schultz, who, by the way, he's a
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: very funny comedian and he's a leftist. Like he is saying, Bernie,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: you're my guy. I wish that you could have been
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: given a fair shot. Bernie Sanders is like a total radical.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Like this is a democratic socialist. Really, he's a communist.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: He's obsessed with the CCP in Venezuela. Like this is
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: not a guy who is by any means reasonable or normal.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: And Andrew Schultz is a leftist too because he likes him.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: And they're just on this platform saying, we don't even
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: have a fair election anymore with the Democratic Party. The
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party was rigging their own results long before they
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: were rigging anything in the general. They abused themselves first
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: before they weaponized themselves against the Republicans. They have become,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: and I think this is really key here, and this
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: is what Schultz and Bernie are getting at, they've become
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: the party of the establishment. They've become the party of elites,
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: no longer a party of the people.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: Democratic Party of today, I think it bears really no.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: Resemblance to the aspirational working class ideals of the JFK
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: era Camelot Democrats. JFK embodied a politics of hope, grit,
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: upward mobility, an authentic champion of the forgotten American. I
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: don't have to agree with everything that JFK says, but
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: at least I can understand where he was coming from.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: There's some common ground there. And he believed in a
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: country where hard work and family and faith mattered. Values that,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: from a modern conservative perspective, resonate more than ever. And today, unfortunately,
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: the legacy, that legacy has been completely discarded in favor
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: of a party run by coastal elites, corporate technocrats, ideological
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: activists whose priorities are wildly out of touch with the
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: average American. I think what was once a movement rooted
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: in real life struggles and common values has devolved into
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: a confusing spectacle of identity politics, academic jargon, top-down control
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: masquerading as progress. The current left seems torn between fringe
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: cultural radicalism and authoritarian expert class rule, neither of which
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: speaks to the real concerns of working families trying to
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: live with dignity and purpose. And with that, I'm going
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: to end the show today. I appreciate all of you
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: tuning in, listening, being here on this Friday. Happy Memorial Day.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: I will see you guys all next Tuesday. We're going
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: to be off on Monday. Bongino is going to be
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: shut down for the holiday, but I will see you
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: all next week.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: The Dan Bongino Show.
• 45:31
  Speaker 11: I think a lot of people are underestimating the Trump
• 45:33
  Speaker 11: effect in this midterm. You've heard it yourself. Act like
• 45:37
  Speaker 11: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You
• 45:40
  Speaker 11: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
• 45:42
  Speaker 11: X factor. Folks, elections are a math issue.
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: That is it.
• 45:47
  Speaker 11: This is not a football game.
• 45:49
  Speaker 8: If you vote, we will win.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: It is not complicated. The Dan Bongino Show. Follow and
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: listen on your favorite platform.
