Why won’t Democrats pass the SAVE Act? · Cultural Wars | America Out Loud News

0:03
Welcome to After Dark of the America Out Wild Talk Video Network.
0:07
I am your host, Rob Harper.
0:09
And my coast tonight is Heather Robinson, a contributor for the New York Post.
0:13
Heather, how are you?
0:14
Doing great, Rob.
0:15
Thank you.
0:16
How are you?
0:17
Good, Heather.
0:18
Uh, there's a lot we have to talk about, so we might as well just jump right into it.
0:22
And I guess top of mind right now is uh what everyone is talking about is Trump's response to Bob Mueller's passing.
0:31
I've been on Twitter and I've given my thoughts on it and actually made a video.
0:36
And for the most part, I said that can you blame Trump?
0:41
Uh this man tried to destroy his first term in office.
0:47
He marred it with this fake investigation, and all he had to do is just to say that there's nothing there.
0:54
Now, this does not take away from Bob Mueller being uh his his time that he served in the military, doesn't tick away from his distinguished career in politics.
1:06
But this is a black eye on his record, and I'm sure that many of you saw him when he went to the heel to testify, and he was completely lost and not knowing anything for the most part about his investigation because he allowed Andrew Weissman to run the investigation.
1:28
And if you also remember it was Bill Barr who came in after Trump picked him to be the attorney general, came in, and I think to this day, tried to give his friend because they're good friends a way out of this by looking at the facts and saying there is no there, let's move on.
1:50
Democrats didn't like it, but I think being the person who Bill Barr is.
1:55
Now, Bill Barr has his own issues, but I think he recognized it for what it was.
2:00
It was a political hit job against Trump, and no one talks about it now, and they don't talk about it, Heather, because there was never ever any Russia collusion.
2:10
This was a complete fabrication created by none other than Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, propted up by John Brennan and James Comey.
2:24
What are your thoughts?
2:25
Yeah, I mean, honestly, I didn't pay a lot of attention to the Mueller report or the Russia collusion hoax because I was skeptical of it.
2:35
I I knew there was Trump derangement syndrome is real, and it was very tedious, and I didn't think that there was likely to be anything to it, and now I'm glad I didn't pay attention because there was absolutely nothing to it.
2:50
All I remember is that Hillary Clinton's campaign fabricated a dossier claiming that Trump had all these mysterious and crooked dealings with Russians, including Russian prostitutes, and it turned out that that was a fabricated document, and they took it before a FISA court and got that court, which was something that was created in the wake of 9-11 to protect the homeland, like allowing warrantless wiretapping, right?
3:21
In the case of true national security um threats, they they fabricated a document to get a judge to allow them to spy on the Trump campaign.
3:32
Personally, you know, that's the part I I studied and I know about, and I think that's as bad as Watergate, and I can't get over that the Democrats, including Hillary Clinton got away with that.
3:43
Um it just shows what a double standard there is.
3:47
I mean, if you're gonna shist, don't be a conservative, you know.
3:53
I mean, most people don't even know about that because the mainstream media essentially ignored that that part of the story, and and yes, I don't know what on earth they was wasted the taxpayers' money for for all those years, and what I guess it was just all BS.
4:09
It's outrageous.
4:10
And I mean, I I found myself to be the outlier in some conversations uh this past week because most people I know uh were appalled by our president's um candor, what what he said or what he wrote on Truth Social about that he's you know, someone asked him what he what's your reaction to the death of Robert Mueller, and I believe Trump said something about something like good, he can't bother any innocent people anymore.
4:37
And one thing I will say about our president, you know, he doesn't pay any heed to the shibboleths and the um the the what's the word the mores and the sort of platitudes that you're supposed to espouse, he's very candid about what he feels, and I think there's something to be admired.
5:02
I mean, I'm sorry for the man's family, and one of my friends who's a veteran who's very much a gentleman said, Oh, all our president really had to say was just well, I'm sorry for Mr.
5:12
Mueller's family and left it at that.
5:15
That would have been a more polite way to make the point.
5:18
But I personally found it, God forgive me.
5:23
I found it kind of refreshing that Trump just I mean, if he doesn't feel real sympathy, if he doesn't really feel empathy, you know, he's not gonna BS.
5:33
And I'll tell you what, there are a couple people in this on this planet that if I found out they had died, I wouldn't be sad, and not only that, I would be relieved for the world.
5:44
So I mean, I think that's how he felt, and that's what he said, and you know, there's something kind of, you know.
5:51
I mean, I I don't think he was you know, I guess maybe good isn't the right word, but I mean, I is it better to fake?
6:00
I don't know, maybe better to say nothing at all, but at least you know, this president is not a faker.
6:06
Well, that's just standard.
6:07
They say that if you don't have anything nice to say about a person, once the person dies, it's best not to say anything at all.
6:13
And we've come on here and we've talked about this before, and a lot of people will try to draw parallels between Charlie Kirk and how the right was outraged that they came out and they said that they're glad that he's dead, and you know, and people said it was in poor taste.
6:27
I get it, and I said the same thing.
6:29
If they want to say this, that's fine, but the Apple the horse cart is gonna circle back around, and lo and behold, it did.
6:36
No, someone even said that maybe what Trump should have said was to the Democrats, I'm sorry for your loss.
6:42
And maybe that would have appeased them.
6:46
But you know, we see this constantly with them wishing for Trump's death, wanting Trump to die.
6:53
And now when Trump is truthful, they don't like it.
6:57
Like, oh my god, no, no, no, they want to be the judges, they want to be the arbitrators of you know, this is what could have been said, but I you put yourself in this man's shoes, and I think it's hard for people to do it.
7:11
He's still human.
7:13
And when you look at how they weaponized the government, the justice system to try and throw him in jail, take away his fortune, to steal his fortune after saying, Now, remember people.
7:27
When he was running, they were saying that he wasn't a millionaire.
7:31
And then all at once, he's a millionaire, and we want to take his money.
7:36
Which one is it?
7:38
And I don't think they were saying he's not a billionaire.
7:41
Uh but it doesn't matter.
7:43
They still say he had no money.
7:45
Remember Rachel Matto and the tax returns.
7:48
So which one, but which one is it?
7:51
Billionaire millionaire, which one is it?
7:53
Either he has money or he doesn't.
7:56
Well, and then they tried to steal the money.
7:58
You had Letitia James had him in court wanting him to pay all these excessive fines.
8:03
You had judges knowing that this was wrong, but no one wanted to stand up and say, wait a minute, this is not how our justice system works.
8:11
You just can't go in and just take all the person's money and then just random them a penniless.
8:17
It doesn't work that way.
8:19
But a lot of people, not understanding our justice system, were completely unaware of it.
8:24
Well, first of all, it was wrong to do it.
8:27
The charges were completely made up, trumped up charges.
8:31
It has never been done before.
8:33
And then for a judge to assess a value on a property that he knows nothing about, not even going to realtors to say what is the value of this.
8:43
And we're just and we sat there and we watched this train wreck take place, and now all at once, Trump is supposed to get in the into the uh the marble uh ban and make nice and say, oh wow, yeah, this man tried to take me down, and I'm so sorry for his passing.
8:58
It doesn't work, it doesn't work that way.
9:00
Well, it does usually, but not with Trump.
9:03
He does not play the game.
9:05
He doesn't, you know, my my late father used to say, no matter how mean and nasty people were to each other in life, they all sit and cry at the funeral.
9:14
And you know, sometimes there's something hypocritical and fake about it, and Trump doesn't do that.
9:21
Well, one of the things that I pointed out, Heather, is generally what happens is that once a person dies, they'll give about a week or two, and they'll give them all these alkylades.
9:30
But then after that, they'll start saying, But did you know this person did this?
9:33
The same thing with Nixon.
9:35
Once Nixon died, when Nixon died, before he died, he was evil.
9:39
Once he died, oh, he he he he tried to do what was best for his country.
9:45
Well, he really did, by the way.
9:46
Well, he did totally demonized for his mistakes, but there were a lot of good things he did, absolutely.
9:52
He was a week later president, yes.
9:55
The media came out and they attacked him and say, Well, this is what he did, and he's a bad person.
10:00
Whereas with Trump, Trump is just saying it right up front.
10:03
Yeah.
10:04
He's just going right at it.
10:05
Now, I I want to say this to uh going to the making this a little religious here to my fellow Christians and to uh my Jewish brothers and sisters looking at the Bible at Proverbs, Proverbs 11 and 10 says when it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoice it.
10:25
And when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
10:29
Oh, that's that's powerful.
10:32
That when the wicked perishes, you know, it's almost as if they're saying that people are exceedingly glad that the the evil is gone.
10:40
And then there's another scripture and the Bible.
10:43
I'm sure this is probably in the Torah as well, Proverbs 28 28, and it says.
10:54
The old testament, when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.
10:58
But when they perish, the righteous increase.
11:07
Take it it, take it for what it is.
11:10
This man could have easily stepped aside, but he decided to be political because the Democrats wanted him to.
11:19
He carried their water trying to take Trump out.
11:25
I mean, Hillary and you know, with the faking the dossier and the spying and the lying.
11:32
I mean, he may not have been, he wasn't the architect of it.
11:35
That's the only thing.
11:36
I mean, I think he was stuck to be right.
11:38
Yeah, but I mean, it's kind of like he made he was to my way of thinking, he was more the foot soldier, you know, as opposed to the architect of evil.
11:47
I mean, he whoever came up with it was and continues to be spreading hate, and um, I think it's sick.
11:56
You know, we've talked about this many times.
11:58
I mean, yes, not everybody has to like Donald Trump, and they don't have to like his policies, but you know, or his personality, but this obsession with vilifying him.
12:09
I mean, to me, it seems sick.
12:11
It seems like it's getting in the way of constructive dialogue or any kind of focus on the issues and the complexities of got, you know, what we can do as citizens to help the country and help our fellow Americans.
12:27
Um I just I mean, I listen, I hear myself, and I don't want to sound like I'm some sycophant and I worship everything Trump does.
12:35
I mean, I I am a big supporter, but I mean, I recognize in myself that listen, I'm not perfect, and I, you know, I get fed up with the left and I demonize them a little bit.
12:48
You know, but it's it's tough not to when you know when they're demonizing not only Trump, but everybody who supports him, and they've been doing that for so many years, as you know, in general, as a as a not saying everybody, but um I mean they want us to be, they they want us to be when they're out attacking us, we're supposed to smile.
13:11
You look at what happened to the governor of Arkansas just recently, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, she went to a restaurant, and you have the staff saying that you know, she's Don, we want you out of here.
13:20
And we saw that throughout Trump's first term in office.
13:23
People would go to restaurants where conservatives were eating, and they would they were extremely rude to them.
13:29
Even had Maxine Warders to say that if you see someone, you surround them and you tell them that you're not welcome.
13:35
Chuck Schumer said something similar.
13:38
So they say all these bad things, and we're supposed to just sit back and take it, take the high ground while they're acting out.
13:46
You look at what they're doing to us.
13:48
Not only that, you look at what they're doing with the the save act, not wanting to pass the save act, and they keep saying that is going to impact blacks and women.
14:01
And here's my response to that.
14:02
First of all, it's like a low expectation of blacks that blacks can't go out, black and brown people can't go out and get their birth certificate.
14:09
They can't go out and get ID.
14:11
And if it is cumbersome on them, we've been talking about this for how long.
14:17
We have an election that's coming up in November.
14:19
What is it gonna hurt for you to start the process now?
14:23
Right.
14:23
Getting your documentation together.
14:25
It's just excuse after excuse.
14:27
And then they want to say, well, it's gonna impact women.
14:30
Well, why are they bringing in the women?
14:31
Because that's one of their largest voter blocks.
14:33
You have the blacks, and then you have women.
14:36
Well, they can't, well, why can't women get uh an ID?
14:38
Well, because they change their names.
14:40
Well, you have a large portion of women when they marry the ones that are marrying, because now liberal women are saying we're not gonna marry, we're not gonna have children.
14:49
But the ones who do marry, many of them don't even take their husband's last name.
14:56
It's like they keep their mate name.
14:58
So what is the issue here?
15:01
And this is what I wish Republicans would just break it down, just like for one.
15:06
You know that we're voting in November.
15:07
And if you're saying it's gonna be a hardship on you, why don't you start the process now?
15:11
You could have started the process a year ago, getting your documents together to get an ID.
15:17
Black people have to ride a plane, black people, black people, those who get government assistance, you have to have ID.
15:24
You have to have an ID just about for everything.
15:27
So what do you mean they can't get an ID?
15:29
What do you mean that women are gonna find it difficult because they're changing their names?
15:33
As I mentioned, many of them are getting married and they're not changing their names.
15:37
So why all of these excuses?
15:39
You have 89% of the population voters who say that we need voter ID.
15:46
So why is it so cumbersome?
15:47
Well, just to go out and get an idea.
15:49
They just want they want people to have an easier time, shisting and voting twice, as well as the illegal aliens to vote.
15:57
But I will say it can be a little cumbersome to, I mean, I know myself, I consider myself a person of somewhat above average intelligence, and I'm having a difficult time getting a real ID.
16:10
I mean, but I think if, you know, I don't I agree with you.
16:12
I don't think that's really their concern.
16:14
Is I mean, how much government bureaucracy do they preside over and love, and I mean, that's you know, Democrats never met a government bureaucracy they didn't like.
16:24
But I mean, I you know, I'm all for trying why I mean they're big on social programs.
16:29
Why don't they you and I have said this before, why don't they create a social program to make it easier to help get the ID?
16:36
Yeah, if you're really an American to help you, you know, so that it isn't so cumbersome to get your birth certificate, and it isn't, you know.
16:44
I mean, I know myself, it was a real hassle to get my passport.
16:48
I managed it not long ago, but it's like yeah, a several step process, and you have to wait.
16:55
And I mean, they could we could stand to make this process streamlined and uh less horribly bureaucratic.
17:04
So why don't they?
17:05
That's that's a good point.
17:06
Right, work on that.
17:07
Say we're gonna do it and we're gonna work on making the process less cumbersome so that you can get the ID.
17:13
I have my driver's license, I have my New York State ID, I also have my passport.
17:18
I had all the supporting documents to get it.
17:20
And I think it's you get the real ID.
17:23
I got the real ID unbeknownst to me because when I when I first rolled it out, they said, hey, so I got it.
17:28
So it wasn't.
17:30
My driver's license.
17:31
So it wasn't an issue.
17:34
Because I guess with the time I was getting my last driver's license update, I don't think it is a real ID.
17:40
So I have to go through this additional process and get I think a social security card or a birth certificate.
17:47
I mean, it it is a little bit of a hassle.
17:50
So well, but but but think about it.
17:51
If you really anything worth having is worth working for, I have my social security card.
17:57
I used to work for Social Security Administration years ago, so I knew the steps to take to get my social security card.
18:03
Now online, you can get your social security card, you can get your birth certificate.
18:07
Democrats just want to constantly have a an oppressed group that they want to say they can't get it.
18:14

We're back to the second half of the show that we're just talking about voter ID and why people should be able to get it.
20:16
Well, Democrats are saying that they can't get it.
20:18
I mean, they're always giving all these reasons why you can't get what you need to get.
20:25
And then they'd like to create this bureaucracy.
20:27
And as Heather mentioned, why don't they just create a process to streamline getting your ID?
20:33
I mean, at one point it was very difficult to get your birth certificate.
20:37
But you can go on to the Bureau of Bottle Statistics now, and you can get it within, I would say, within a day's time, your birth certificate, if you have the information, you know, when you were born, where, etc.
20:47
etc.
20:48
And because they're linking all these systems.
20:50
Democrats just don't want to do it because they want to be able to allow dead people and people who don't belong here to vote.
20:59
Even Chuck Schumer.
21:00
Chuck Schumer and Senator Representative Warner from Florida got on the house floor and they even said it.
21:07
Chuck Schumer said, Well, yeah, we do have some people who are voting that shouldn't be voting, but it's only a small amount.
21:13
So the Warner said the exact same thing.
21:16
But these are the same individuals who say that illegals aren't voting, people who aren't voting who aren't supposed to be voting, but then they let the cat out of the bag, and no one caught it.
21:26
They just danced right over it.
21:29
And these are the issues that we have, and that's the reason why it's something else, Heather, just from looking at the say back the bill that I wish Republicans would do, is that just streamline the bill, take out everything else, because embedded in that bill is them outlawing trans hospitals giving performing uh surgery on minors that's in the bill.
21:57
So I'm like, take all that out.
21:58
And there's a lot of other stuff.
21:59
If you read the bill, you'll see what I'm talking about.
22:01
Take all that out and just keep it simple.
22:05
The safe act for voting.
22:07
You have to have an ID.
22:10
That's it.
22:10
And then allow those who don't want it to stand on the house floor and debate or the Senate floor and tell the American people why they don't want it.
22:20
Give the reasons because a lot of times when we put these bills up there, the average person is completely unaware that it's not just that.
22:27
Now, that's the name of the bill, the safe act, but embedded in it are so many other things.
22:33
And this is what people aren't aware of.
22:35
They're thinking, oh no, it's just one thing.
22:37
No, there are more things tacked on to that bill.
22:40
And I think it was done by design, so that people would say, I don't know about this.
22:46
So there are some Republicans, I mean some Democrats who are in favor of it, but then they're looking at the trans issue and they're saying, Nope, not gonna vote for it because of this.
22:55
But that doesn't come out.
22:58
And I think that they should just make this a clean bill, get this bill passed, and then as far as the other trans stuff, which is equally important, do not get me wrong.
23:08
It's very important.
23:10
Because we are pushing this trans ideology on our children, and it's dangerous.
23:18
Kids who are 13 years old who are cutting off healthy body parts, and we read about the stories every day, or at least I do.
23:28
But the mainstream media has chosen not to cover it.
23:33
Why are they doing this?
23:34
Why are they trying to deceive the American people?
23:38
We've had on our show guests who have said this is extremely dangerous, that this might be a phase that these kids are going through.
23:47
But once it's over, they will be okay.
23:50
Why aren't we getting them the help that they need?
23:53
Why don't Democrats say, well, let's get them the help?
23:56
Once you become, if you're when you become 18 years old, if you still feel that way, that's fine.
24:00
But you know what else?
24:02
We shouldn't have to pay for it.
24:03
The government shouldn't pay for it.
24:05
And insurance companies shouldn't be forced to pay for it.
24:07
It should be considered an elective surgery, just like plastic surgery.
24:12
If we're going to allow force insurance companies to perform these surgeries, then they should be forced to perform plastic surgeries on individuals who say, Oh, I don't like my nose.
24:22
Oh, I want to get rid of all the wrinkles.
24:24
Oh, I want this.
24:25
Otherwise, it's not there.
24:29
But no one is stepping aside and sitting down and having the conversation, Heather, to look at, wait a minute, does this actually make sense?
24:39
What is the difference between a gender surgery cutting up healthy body parts and me wanting to, let's say, have a BBL, a Brazilian butt lift, or breast augmentation.
24:50
What is the difference?
24:54
Well, I'll tell you, Rob, I mean, I myself recently, not too long ago, had a bad experience with something called Juvederm Ultra uh injections into my face.
25:06
Um I can't prove this, but I believe it caused inflammation throughout my body.
25:13
I had a series of these injections.
25:14
These are the injections that give you bigger, you know, cheekbones, because that's one thing I always wanted to change.
25:21
I have paid such a steep price for this.
25:24
I was I had pain in my arms and hands.
25:27
I had um uh all kinds of weird feelings of inflammation, um, pulsating in my body.
25:36
This went on for quite a long time.
25:39
My point is just as an adult, I did this, I made this foolish decision.
25:43
Apparently, a tiny portion of people can have a reaction like this to this, excuse me, crap injecting in the face, okay.
25:53
And you know, I I'm gonna say right here that this is what I believe happened.
25:57
I had a neurologist tell me that's what happened, but I can't prove it.
26:01
Okay, so this can fall under the realm of opinion.
26:05
But my point is just this brought home to me in such a stark way, how precious our health is.
26:14
And if you are so blessed as to have good health, I don't care who you are.
26:19
I mean, to me, any unnecessary surgery for something like vanity, or even because you have a psychological feeling.
26:30
I mean, I to me, I'm just saying to me, I think is absolutely nuts.
26:36
And I would shudder to think of any child, anyone you know who's underage going through what I went through with this.
26:43
I don't think cosmetic beauty procedures should be performed on underage people.
26:48
I don't think this radical surgery that, as you said, amputates and augments and you know, going under putting healthy body parts under the knife is something to do to a child or a minor.
27:03
I think it's it's unconscionable, and I think it's a bad mistake.
27:08
I really do.
27:10
Um, and I don't know what's happening.
27:12
I mean, I think our country has succumbed to a kind of a madness over this.
27:17
And I admit I'm not an expert on the subject, and maybe there is such a thing.
27:23
As we've discussed, as you know, uh just gender dysphoria.
27:26
Um, there's all kinds of things under the sun, and I'm not qualified to pronounce that such a thing doesn't exist, or that there has to be one way of handling it.
27:38
I all I know though is that gone is gone, you know, whether you're talking about death or removing a body part.
27:46
You know, these aren't things that are um revocable, these are irrevocable, and there's a reason that we don't encourage people to turn off the machine when things look uh bleak, but we're not sure that there's no hope, or um to cut off that body part because you don't like it, or you know, drastically, you know, you know, I mean, the point is that a lot of things heal and a lot of things change, and especially with young people.
28:23
Young people recover and they gain confidence and a lot of the body is quite remarkable and the mind too.
28:31
They we have these amazing machines that God gave us that uh, you know, the one thing we know is they're resilient and they change and minds change, but once you've made a change that's irrevocable, that's it.
28:47
And I don't think that it does serve um the youth of this country well to have adults who don't have the guts to explain that to young people, and that doesn't not to patronize them and say, oh, you'll feel differently.
29:04
Look, everyone has his or her own journey or their own journey, but life is long with luck, and you just shouldn't be doing things when you're underage that are going to change you in a way that you cannot um you can't then you can't you know you can never go back on.
29:28
Right.
29:28
Well, Heather, I appreciate you sharing that with us.
29:30
Your story.
29:31
I remember you telling us at one point that there were some issues that you were having.
29:35
But I'm looking at you, and I'm sure some of our other listeners have seen you on our live show, and you look perfect, you don't need to change anything.
29:41
You're looking well, a lot of a lot of times I feel that way.
29:45
I'm like, look, you know what?
29:47
I may not have cheekbones like um the girls on Fox News, but I'm I'm pretty enough.
29:54
Um most of all I feel good, and that's what matters, that and being good, you know.
30:00
Being uh having a life of purpose, having a conscience, having a heart, feeling hopefully good at least most of the time.
30:08
I mean, those things I wouldn't trade for any cosmetic change, and I just would wish that the youth of our country um could learn that, you know, as young as possible, that to have health, to have you know, family, to have a sense of purpose in life, these are the kinds of blessings that that's what matters, that's what you'll take with you, you know, throughout your life, God willing, and into the next, and you know, you don't want to, you know, look at our our service members, our heroes, the warriors who had their limbs ripped off by the butcher Solomon, and you know, I mean, to me, that's to my way of thinking, that's just one of the hardest things.
30:51
And I mean, to do that to yourself, um cut yourself up to conform to somebody else's idea, even your own idea about what you should be.
31:03
That's just it's not wise.
31:05
It's very foolish, and you know, and I wish we had more, like you said, people to talk through this with before they even consider it.
31:14
But you have these parents who have been indoctrinated.
31:17
Elon Musk has even talked about it, how when he went in with his son, and the doctors told him, would you rather have a dead son or a live son who's changing, you know, or trying to change his gender, and he failed for it only to do his own research.
31:31
And that's the other thing.
31:32
People aren't doing their research, they're going in and assuming that what these doctors are saying, it's true because they're the doctors, they're the experts, and they're supposed to do no harm, only to find out that a lot of this is like a money-making machine.
31:47
And you look at the amount of money that has been made, and I'm sure that there are lobbyists who are on the hill who are lobbying for this, they're telling Democrats, oh no, no, we've got to do this, we've got to do this.
31:57
And then those voices in the wilderness that are saying, stop.
32:00
This is wrong.
32:02
This is dangerous.
32:03
I read uh, I think it was the other day that Elon Musk is helping this man, his wife wants to put their kid through this transgender surgery.
32:15
And the the I mean, the kid is just like clueless to all this.
32:20
And you have this wacky judge, you have a wacky judge.
32:24
I'm just trying to remember the story from memory, who has removed the child from the dad's care and giving it to the mother.
32:30
So he's okay with this.
32:31
He wants the son to have the surgery.
32:33
And so Elon Musk is stepping out, and he's gonna pay for the law, the lawyer fees and help this guy help to represent this guy.
32:40
This is how evil this has become.
32:42
This is the guy or the, I guess it doesn't matter which parent it is.
32:46
Right, but the father, the father doesn't want it, and the mother, the judge gave the mother uh parental rights over the child.
32:53
So the dad has nothing to say.
32:55
And this is and and we see this happening quite often with the mother trying to foresee surgeries, and the father is saying no, no, no, and it's on these little boys.
33:06
Not that it's not happening to girls, because it is.
33:08
Yeah, it's actually more common with girls.
33:10
I mean, more girls, let me get this right.
33:12
More girls say they're boys, but I don't know if more girls are actually getting surgery.
33:17
So the surgery.
33:18
It's a bigger phenomenon that the girls want to be called boys than the other way around.
33:25
But I don't think I could be wrong, but I I don't think most of those girls, I mean, it's turned into a huge epidemic among teenage girls, which doesn't surprise me for a couple different reasons, which I can get into, but that by the numbers, it's actually a lot more teenage girls are saying they're boys than boys who are saying they're girls.
33:46
But in terms of who's actually taking hormones and getting the surgery, I I don't know.
33:51
Um, I I think most of the girls who are saying this are just you know, kind of considering themselves boys or you know, asking to be it's almost like a social to me, a social contagion.
34:02
Yeah, for sure and I think that if we allow this just to play out during those awkward years, those teenage years, they'll grow out of it.
34:10
But what we're seeing happening is that parents are opting for this surgery as young as eight and nine.
34:18
That's that's a which is extremely dangerous, right?
34:21
It is abuse.
34:22
And when you have judges who are on board with this, of course, your kid might say, Well, I think that I'm a little girl.
34:28
You know, what if your kid comes and says I'm a cat?
34:31
Uh, and you're gonna say, okay, we're gonna these this is bad parenting, and these parents need to be evaluated by a psychiatrist.
34:41
And we need to have psychiatrists who aren't into politics who aren't pushing this because uh within the past decade or more, you've seen a lot of doctors who are in favor of this.
34:53
And then when you look at their background, you'll see that they have a political slant.
34:58
A lot of them have TDS.
35:01
I was listening to a show on Fox, I think it was the Harris Faulkner show, and she had this psychologist, psychiatrist to come on, and he said that they had started identifying a symptom, TDS, that people actually have it.
35:16
They can't rest, they can't focus.
35:18
If you show them a picture of Trump, they go ballistic, they just go they're losing it.
35:24
So how it's like, how did we get here?
35:26
How do we get to this level of sickness that if you say a person's name, you become so just like completely disjointed and you're like screaming.
35:37
Well, you know, it's kind of to me, it's a little bit like the mirror image of the opposite of what people were like with Hitler in terms of the total worship and you know, unquestioning loyalty and acquiescence to the Fuhrer.
35:53
This is like the opposite.
35:55
It's like people are, you know, in a lather of hate.
35:59
And of course, they would probably say, Well, we are sick in our worship of Trump.
36:04
And I admit that I I do tend to really like him, and sometimes I have to sort of say, but see, I I have something in my personality where I tend to be that way about all presidents.
36:14
Like I have an automatic respect for the presidency.
36:16
Right, so it's different.
36:17
We're right, because we're somewhat different, but I I but I also have the self-awareness to know that that has to do with, you know, it is a certain um something in my personality that I tend I don't worship, but I tend to have a kind of automatic love.
36:33
I think it has a lot to do with having loved and idolized my father a lot.
36:37
And anyway, not to get into my whole psychology here.
36:40
But I think that um it it helps to be self-aware, and you know, to you know, I let's put it this way a lot of these people are not in any kind of real good therapy.
36:51
I mean, they may go to a therapist, but probably somebody who just parrots back to them.
36:56
Exactly.
36:57
The way I look at it, they're in an echo chamber, they don't have the self-awareness to know that they're they're um you know, they're venting, they're they're scapegoating Trump and his supporters, and there's a sick quality to it.
37:10
I'm not saying that they're to the point that they would put us in concentration camps, but they want to know it's having it.
37:17
I mean, it is it's yeah, I think a lot of a lot of it is obsessive, and it's like you said, they can't change the subject when they get going, and they don't most of them have the self-awareness to know that this is probably not this is exaggerated, this is out of proportion.
37:33
Um I think that if they were to just to stop and look at the reality of it and look at wait a minute, this doesn't make any sense.
37:40
This man is not bad when you look at how all the people on others a mature person would analyze it, you know, on a chance.
37:50
But you look at the people who respected him before he became president, and then all at once they realized that he was evil makes no sense.
37:58
Folks, you listen to After Dark of the America Outlaw Talk Radio Network, and my co-host tonight is Heather Robinson, a contributor of the New York Post, will be back by the final half of the show after this commercial break.

And just to put a button on what we talked about this the save act and getting it passed, and also opening up the government uh and funding uh the Department of Homeland Security, and we see all the long lines that are at the
40:00
Airport, we're in the height of the sp of spring break, people are traveling.
40:04
And why Democrats are refusing to open up the government is just beyond.
40:13
Well, I I know why.
40:14
So I'm not going to say it's beyond my comprehension because I do comprehend what they're doing.
40:18
They're thinking that they're winning.
40:20
But they're putting America in danger.
40:26
You're not paying people who should be paid for two weeks.
40:31
Government employees are going to miss their paychecks.
40:33
Meanwhile, the Democrats are getting paid.
40:37
Go figure.
40:38
They shouldn't get paid either.
40:39
Whenever they shut the government down, they shouldn't get paid.
40:42
And I agree with John Fetterman.
40:43
John Fetterman Heather has just like completely surprised me with his position and his thought process and him making sense.
40:51
Because if you remember earlier here on After Dark, we were against him.
40:56
We were for Dr.
40:56
Oz.
40:57
But John Fetterman has made a complete turnaround.
41:00
He is the Democrat that Democrats should be.
41:06
He's looking at the issues and what makes sense.
41:09
So hats off to John Fetterman.
41:11
I know that he's a Democrat.
41:13
I know that he could easily flip and do something around the corner.
41:16
But right now, he's on target.
41:20
And he's saying, open up the government.
41:24
This is ridiculous.
41:26
We need to fund the Department of Homeland Security.
41:29
He supports Mark Wing Mullen to be the new secretary of Department of Homeland Security.
41:36
While Rand Paul is being really pissy about it and taking everything personal.
41:40
And gosh, I don't know if you guys heard the exchange between Mark Wing Mullen Rand Paul, but for the most part, uh Rand Paul came after him and say, Well, you know, you said that I was a snake in the grass.
41:51
And how could you say that?
41:52
And are you going to apologize because you said and Mark Mark McMullan said, you know, if I if I have something to say to you, I'll say it in your face.
41:58
And he said, but to be honest, he said, I have been on this heel, and I go around trying to bridge bridges, trying to uh, you know, work with individuals.
42:08
You, on the other hand, it seems as if though you're constantly trying to go against the president and what he wants.
42:14
And I have to admit, Rand Paul does seem to be that kind of person.
42:19
It's like there's nothing, nothing that the president puts up that he will support.
42:23
It seems as though he's always against it.
42:25
Go ahead, Hugo.
42:26
Well, maybe.
42:27
I mean, I haven't followed so closely recently.
42:29
But one thing about Rand Paul, I mean, I do think he's an important voice.
42:33
He's he's very much a um he's a contrarian often.
42:38
Oh, yes, he is.
42:40
He has that civil liberties perspective, and I do think that he feels those principles very sincerely.
42:47
And I'm trying to think of examples, but I know that he's been quite consistent about that.
42:52
And I do think it's you know, we have our two-party system, which it serves um a certain function.
42:59
Um, it's an organizing principle.
43:02
But one thing that I personally sometimes appreciate is someone who can step outside the um, you know, outside the sort of knee-jerk thinking of either side, and and have a you know, it's hard to be a real independent and get elected in this country.
43:19
And I, even though I disagree with him some of the time, I do think it's good that there's someone who has that perspective that's um that's unique in you know, in Congress.
43:31
And so for that, I do think Rand Paul is uh an important voice myself.
43:35
But uh, you know, and similarly, Fetterman has shown that he can think independently.
43:41
Maybe it connects, you know, with we I used to sort of think it was not so great, although I didn't really care.
43:47
But I mean, I I thought it wasn't the most respectful thing that he ran around in a sweatshirt and shorts everywhere.
43:52
But now I see that maybe that's part of his personality and his charm, and that he he die he has that in common with President Trump.
44:02
He doesn't pay a lot of heed to convention for convention's sake.
44:08
He's very authentically who he is, and you know, he doesn't, I don't think try to offend people, but he's not he doesn't devote a lot of energy to trying to be inoffensive.
44:20
He's more about here's what I believe, here's what is important to me and what I prioritize.
44:27
I'm not gonna change for you.
44:30
Which let's face it, politicians are usually big pleasers, and they spend a lot of time trying to moderate their their views to get ahead to get elected.
44:42
So when somebody and Fetterman claims, I know he's said that he's for instance, he stood by Israel through all this horror and this war and the sad reality that Israel has to fight back, and sometimes civilians on the other side get killed.
45:00
And I believe with all my heart that that's the last thing Israelis want, you know, but but they're fighting they're fighting people who who don't build shelters for their children, who provoke a war and then hide among their children.
45:15
I mean, this is the reality, and my point is that you know, Fetterman, I think sees the big picture and hasn't let himself be uh he has let himself be vilified for standing for the right thing, and I think that the strength of character to do that maybe goes along with being someone who marches to the beat of his own drum and doesn't look just like everyone and dress just like everyone and sound just like everyone.
45:42
So I don't know.
45:43
I guess my bottom line is whether it's Rand Paul or uh Fetterman, I think having it having independent voices is very, very important.
45:52
Oh, yeah, I agree with you, but I just think sometimes Rand Paul likes to grandstand.
45:56
Now, that on Federman, I understand that he's extremely popular with the Democrats and Pennsylvania, not Democrats, but Republicans now in Pennsylvania.
46:05
So it that says a lot because at one point they didn't like it.
46:08
No, you mentioned the war.
46:10
What are your thoughts?
46:11
I don't know if you read this in the paper or not, that Iran launched a long-range missile toward Diego Garcia Island, which is in the ocean next to uh the UK, and to me, them demonstrated that they have the capabilities now.
46:29
It didn't hit his target, but the fact that they have the capabilities to launch a long-range missile that close to me is indicative of what they were trying to do and will try to do.
46:42
So for all the naysayers who are saying, Oh, there was no imminent threat, to me, this is an indication that there was an imminent threat that had to be stopped.
46:52
Because if they were able to launch a lone-range missile, which is I'm hearing, which sits roughly 4,000 kilometers from Iran.
47:02
Right, not to mention wars going on.
47:04
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
47:07
So I hope you I hope the UK, I hope they're waking up and they realize this.
47:12
Because there was a threat.
47:14
So all those individuals saying, oh no, we Israel dragged us into this and they did this.
47:18
It's like you don't have you don't know what they're looking at.
47:23
The security that they're looking at.
47:25
And this in itself, they've shown their hands.
47:29
So this is indisputable of what else Iran could do and could have done had we not intervened.
47:38
What are your thoughts, Heather?
47:39
Yeah, I mean, agreed.
47:41
I just think that as I've you know, probably been wasting a lot of time saying on Twitter.
47:48
I mean, the other sad thing is how many Americans, hundreds, actually thousands, you know, if you can count uh Iran and its proxies have been deliberately murdered, maimed, mutilated, kidnapped by this vicious regime since 1979.
48:06
Um, I actually find it very offensive when people say they were not a threat.
48:11
Iran was not a threat.
48:12
I mean, it's one thing to be against the war and say, you know, but but you know what?
48:17
Have some intellectual honesty.
48:19
I mean, if you're a pacifist, say, yes, they were threatening our people, but I still don't believe that war was justified because better we should let more of our people die, you know, get pot shots taken at them, get abducted and you know, brutalized and killed in their sleep and you know, kidnapped at a few hundred over the course of the next few years, then that we should kill too many of them.
48:49
In that's that's or that we should risk, you know, uh uh, you know, a bigger conflagration.
48:55
That's people's position who are against this.
48:57
But to pretend, you know, they don't have the honesty to acknowledge all the murder and and kidnapping and viciousness this regime has done to America and to pretty much every other country's citizens in the world, of course, to Israel.
49:11
I mean, and Israelis, it's like they don't, you know, the people who are against this war, that would be like me saying, oh, okay, I'm denying that there are any unintentional civilian casualties in this war.
49:24
There is no such thing, and I'm just not gonna even mention it and say this is a war of pure justice and necessity, and nobody who's innocent on the other side is gonna get hurt, and we should all be a thousand percent rah-rah for it.
49:38
You know, I mean, that's not honest.
49:39
The truth is war is horrible and it breaks my heart.
49:43
And I know there were a lot of innocent children killed not long ago, the schoolgirls.
49:48
Now I know that their school was located next to um an IRGC facility, and I know that the enemy purposely does that.
50:00
That because it doesn't care about its children.
50:03
I'm not saying none of their parents cared.
50:04
I'm just saying that their government doesn't care.
50:07
And that's that's what's sick and evil about that government and why they're exporting terror around the world for since 1979.
50:15
And one of the reasons I believe that on balance, tragic as war is, this is probably the right decision because if they get nuclear capability, they have no regard for life.
50:26
And it could be a nuclear war around the world.
50:31
And better case, you know, worst case scenario, that happens.
50:35
Better case scenario, they just don't get nukes right away, but they just keep tormenting Americans and Israelis and every other country's citizens.
50:44
And you know, I mean, it's the point is there's no good decision, but I think we should at least have the intellectual and and moral spiritual honesty to talk about both sides of the balance sheet.
50:58
And um, you know, I think a lot of the the opposition to this war, uh, you know, some of it anyway, I mean, is is not honest, it's not principled.
51:09
They're not being honest about, you know, to say that this was just these people weren't a threat, this regime was not a threat, is ignoring the 30,000 innocent Iranians who were just massacred and tortured by their own government, ignoring all these people who are living under the iron boot of this dictatorship, ignoring the Americans taken hostage in 1979, ignoring the 241 U.S.
51:32
Marines killed as they slept in 1983, Cobar Towers, USS Cole, um, the bombing of that synagogue in our Buenos Aires uh October 7th, which was funded by Iran and killed a lot of Israelis, but a lot of Americans and Thai people and people from around the world, and that's just you know, a few mansions.
51:56
I mean, there have been many, many, many more incidents of terrorism funded by this regime.
52:01
Oh, our service members, hundreds proven to be killed by IEDs placed by Iran and thousands more dismembered, burned, you know, in Afghanistan in Iraq.
52:13
I mean, Iran, it's now known was the the um the nexus of all of that, which was exported and you know, to Afghanistan and and Iraq to target our our troops.
52:26
So I mean to say they weren't a threat is dismissing the suffering and the you know the pain and the premature death of those thousands of our own citizens.
52:36
So I really I'm actually offended, you know, when people say that it's like, okay, if you're against the war because of the you know, collateral damage to civilians on the Iranian side, or because you just are principled and you just would rather be killed and have your family be killed than kill someone else, even in self-defense.
52:54
I mean, if that's your position, take that position.
52:58
Don't tell me they weren't a threat.
53:01
That's my opinion.
53:03
Yep.
53:03
I agree with you wholeheartedly that to say that is just individuals who don't care who aren't paying attention and who aren't in tune.
53:11
And as Adam Carolla said, just keep your opinions to yourself.
53:15
I mean, they can have the opinion.
53:17
I just don't I think that it's a that's that's a real coward.
53:21
I mean you they're not there to say there was no threat is just to play pretend.
53:27
I mean, that's like that would be like me saying, oh, there's nobody but terrorists ever getting killed on the other side in a war.
53:35
I mean, it's not true.
53:38
So, I mean, they can say that, but they this regime proved itself to be a threat over and over and over and over and over again.
53:46
So essentially what they're saying is they would rather have this regime continue to be a threat to certainly to Israelis and to probably to Americans and people around the world for however long that goes on, um, and just let them continue to do international terrorism and to fund it and either let them get nuclear weapons and destroy the world, or wait, kick the can down the road, let them do some more terrorism, you know, for the next few years or for however many years, and then wait until they're stronger and like right on the brink of attaining nukes and try to catch that moment to then do something.
54:27
I mean, that's the only, those are the only two other possibilities.
54:31
Like, so I mean, I guess you could say that's what you're for, and that's what certainly that's what, you know, that's what we know that uh the Bushes did and Clinton did, and Obama did, and Biden did.
54:43
They basically let these people terrorize the world for the past 50 years, you know, a little bit here, a little bit there.
54:51
Even the Great Reagan did it.
54:53
I got news for everybody.
54:55
When they killed those Marines, Reagan didn't put them out of business, which I know all our listeners revere him, and I think he was a good president in a lot of ways, but I don't agree with that.
55:07
I think Trump finally finally is putting a stop to this monstrous little puny arrogant evil regime.
55:18
And I think it's way overdue, and somebody finally had to do it.
55:22
And I don't know how any American, honestly, Rob, can't feel some relief and satisfaction in that.
55:30
Even if, you know, you have your doubts or you feel bad for the civilians.
55:34
I get it.
55:34
But I mean, to me, that's like saying Nazi Germany, I mean, or Imperial Japan really weren't a threat.
55:42
But I mean, look, there are leftists who will tell you that Japan was on the brink of surrender when America dropped the bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
55:51
I mean, there are revisionist historians who will tell you that.
55:54
And the truth is that was brutal.
55:57
I mean, how many children died?
55:58
How many innocent children, you know, it's it's it's horrible it's horrible.
56:02
No, are you with what you're saying?
56:04
No, the reality is to sit and say, oh, the Japanese weren't a threat to us and the Germans weren't a threat to us.
56:10
To me, that saying Iran wasn't a threat to us is maybe not absurd, but it almost I mean, it's how many, you know, say death to America and kill and game and murder Americans till these people get their heads out of their asses and say, oh, yeah, they were a threat, you know.
56:29
Excuse me.
56:31
No, you you've said a lot, and we're up against the time, so we're gonna have to leave it there.
56:36
I'm glad you all join us tonight, and we will continue to continue the discussion.
