Latest / V / Left-wing Women are in Meltdown Mode (Ep.80)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Bungie in a Report Early Edition.
- 0:03Speaker 1: Kamala performs dramatically worse than Biden by every metric compared
- 0:11Speaker 1: to 2020. Democrats become wildly racist toward Latinos overnight. The
- 0:17Speaker 1: silent Trump voter makes a comeback. The View accuses America
- 0:21Speaker 1: of racism. Liberal women threaten to not have sex before
- 0:26Speaker 1: marriage for some reason, the spirit of Peanut the Squirrel returns,
- 0:30Speaker 1: the ACLU deputy director calls for riots, and why Elon
- 0:34Speaker 1: Musk made Trump's victory possible. All this on Bongino Report,
- 0:39Speaker 1: early edition. One of the most powerful moments in The
- 0:56Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings is when Frodo and Sam are exhausted.
- 1:00Speaker 1: They're trudging through the perilous lands near Mordor, burdened by
- 1:06Speaker 1: the weight of the One Ring and surrounded by literal darkness.
- 1:12Speaker 1: And Frodo begins to lose hope. He doesn't know if
- 1:15Speaker 1: their journey even matters in the face of all this
- 1:18Speaker 1: just overwhelming, oppressive evil. And Sam, sensing his friend's despair,
- 1:25Speaker 1: encourages Frodo on by saying, It's like the great stories, Mr. Frodo,
- 1:31Speaker 1: the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger
- 1:34Speaker 1: they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end,
- 1:38Speaker 1: because how could the end be happy? Folk in those
- 1:41Speaker 1: stories had lots of chances of turning back, but they didn't,
- 1:45Speaker 1: because they were holding on to something. And I love
- 1:49Speaker 1: that line because it really reflects J.R.R. Tolkien's deep belief
- 1:54Speaker 1: in the power of narrative and heroism. Like Sam, he viewed,
- 1:59Speaker 1: Tolkien viewed, life in the way humans are meant to
- 2:02Speaker 1: view life, like a hero's journey filled with challenges, but
- 2:06Speaker 1: also with hope and redemption. These last few years have
- 2:10Speaker 1: felt like that trudge toward Mordor in a lot of ways.
- 2:14Speaker 1: The persecution of January Sixers and pro-lifers, Marxist race rioting,
- 2:20Speaker 1: the demonization of half the country, labeled domestic terrorists by
- 2:24Speaker 1: the government, the curtailment of basic liberties, violation of bodily
- 2:28Speaker 1: autonomy during COVID, unprecedented social media censorship, the sitting president
- 2:33Speaker 1: banished across all platforms. And despite it all, Trump came back.
- 2:39Speaker 1: His story, our story, is like an epic. It literally
- 2:44Speaker 1: mirrors the Star Wars trilogy. 2016, A New Hope. 2020,
- 2:46Speaker 1: The Empire Strikes Back. 2024, return of the Jedi. You
- 2:54Speaker 1: can't even make up the imagery from this campaign. The
- 2:57Speaker 1: Trump mugshot, the McDonald's visit, the garbage truck, the blood
- 3:02Speaker 1: on his face, fist in the air with the flag
- 3:05Speaker 1: waving behind him after he was shot. It's like life
- 3:10Speaker 1: truly is sweeter than fiction sometimes. And I want you
- 3:14Speaker 1: guys to take a look at the cover of Vanity Fair.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Vanity Fair hates Trump, but not even his haters can
- 3:22Speaker 1: escape the epic drama of these last eight years. The
- 3:26Speaker 1: cover reads 34 felony counts, one conviction, two pending cases,
- 3:31Speaker 1: two impeachments, six bankruptcies, four more years, the 47th American president.
- 3:38Speaker 1: And then Trump, if you're listening, he's just staring straight on,
- 3:42Speaker 1: zoomed in on this Vanity Fair cover.
- 3:45Speaker 2: It's fire.
- 3:45Speaker 1: It's awesome. They hate this guy, but they can't escape
- 3:49Speaker 1: Some would say presidential. I don't even know if it's presidential.
- 3:52Speaker 1: It's really like a hero's story of a guy who
- 3:57Speaker 1: was beaten down and then came back despite it all.
- 4:01Speaker 1: And people are understandably responding with some of the best
- 4:06Speaker 1: edits I have seen come out of the internet. Here
- 4:09Speaker 1: is one example.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you dedicate yourself to public service?
- 4:14Speaker 3: Because I think it's a very mean life. I would
- 4:17Speaker 3: love and I would dedicate my life to this country,
- 4:20Speaker 3: but I see it as being a mean life. And
- 4:21Speaker 3: I also see it as somebody with strong views and
- 4:25Speaker 3: somebody with the kind of views that are maybe a
- 4:27Speaker 3: little bit unpopular, which may be right, but may be unpopular.
- 4:32Speaker 2: I am your voice.
- 4:36Speaker 4: So to every parent who dreams for their child and
- 4:41Speaker 4: every child who dreams for their future, I say these
- 4:46Speaker 4: words to you tonight.
- 4:50Speaker 2: I am with you. I will fight for you. And
- 4:54Speaker 2: I will win for you.
- 4:57Speaker 4: We will make America strong again.
- 5:02Speaker 2: We will make America safe again.
- 5:08Speaker 5: And we will make America great again.
- 5:12Speaker 2: God bless you and good night.
- 5:15Speaker 1: I mean, that was a great one. There's a ton
- 5:17Speaker 1: of awesome edits just all over the internet right now.
- 5:21Speaker 1: There are, I think that there's been a shift in
- 5:25Speaker 1: the zeitgeist and it's been coming for a while, but
- 5:28Speaker 1: people are really feeling it after this victory. The other
- 5:32Speaker 1: thing I want to mention is the drama of Biden's
- 5:35Speaker 1: forced withdrawal from this race. It adds a whole new
- 5:39Speaker 1: layer to the story and the edits about Biden supporting
- 5:42Speaker 1: Trump out of spite have also been awesome. If you're listening,
- 5:50Speaker 1: Trump is pointing at Biden and then Biden takes home
- 5:53Speaker 1: the Trump hat. And here's the thing. I think Biden
- 6:01Speaker 1: is really pleased about what happened. I think the Dems
- 6:05Speaker 1: booted him out and Kamala did dramatically worse than Biden
- 6:09Speaker 1: by virtually every metric. Take a listen.
- 6:12Speaker 6: Let's look at where Vice President Harris did not do well.
- 6:17Speaker 6: These are Democratic part of the Democratic coalition. We've talked
- 6:20Speaker 6: about it all night. You have to hold your coalition,
- 6:22Speaker 6: eat into the other person's coalition. Well, here's the Democratic
- 6:24Speaker 6: coalition in three areas where the vice president did not
- 6:27Speaker 6: do well, starting at the top with Latino voters. In 2020,
- 6:33Speaker 6: Joe Biden got 65 percent of Latino voters. In 2024,
- 6:36Speaker 6: the vice president only got 53 percent. Moving down from there,
- 6:39Speaker 6: young voters. Joe Biden got 60 percent of young voters
- 6:42Speaker 6: in 2020. Kamala Harris only got 55 percent of those
- 6:46Speaker 6: young voters. And then with women, we've talked about it.
- 6:48Speaker 6: Fifty seven percent of the female vote was what Joe
- 6:51Speaker 6: Biden got in 2020. And in 2024, Harris got only
- 6:56Speaker 6: 54% of that vote. Now let's look quickly at the
- 7:00Speaker 6: Republican coalition where Trump held support. Okay, conservative voters, he
- 7:05Speaker 6: did even better than he had done in 2020, up
- 7:09Speaker 6: at 89%. White evangelicals doing even better among white evangelicals
- 7:14Speaker 6: than he had before. And then white no college, tiny
- 7:18Speaker 6: bit worse, but not really even, that would basically be
- 7:23Speaker 6: considered flat. So that's, That's how you win elections.
- 7:29Speaker 1: The Latino numbers have been especially incredible. Democrats fear mongered
- 7:34Speaker 1: about mass deportations, that Trump's a racist, that especially that
- 7:39Speaker 1: Trump's a racist narrative ramped up toward the end of
- 7:42Speaker 1: this campaign because of the Tony Hinchcliffe joke. Turns out
- 7:46Speaker 1: Latinos are traditionalists who want secure borders and aren't obsessed
- 7:50Speaker 1: with abortion. But that's not why Democrats think that Latinos
- 7:54Speaker 1: went for Trump. Here's what MSNBC had to say about
- 7:59Speaker 1: why Latinos went for Trump.
- 8:01Speaker 7: I just say really quickly, too, Democrats need to be
- 8:05Speaker 7: mature and they need to be honest and they need
- 8:08Speaker 7: to say, yes, there is there's misogyny. But it's not
- 8:13Speaker 7: just misogyny from white men. It's misogyny from Hispanic men.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Right.
- 8:18Speaker 7: It's misogyny from black men. Things we've all been talking
- 8:21Speaker 7: about who do not want a woman leading them might
- 8:25Speaker 7: be race issues with Hispanics. They don't want a black
- 8:29Speaker 7: woman as president. You know, the Democratic Party, I've always
- 8:34Speaker 7: found when you're sitting around talking, they love to just
- 8:37Speaker 7: sort of. balkanize everybody into these separate groups and say, oh,
- 8:43Speaker 7: white people don't like women and black people. No, it
- 8:49Speaker 7: is time for the Democrats to say, OK, and you
- 8:52Speaker 7: and I have talked about this before. A lot of
- 8:55Speaker 7: Hispanic voters have problems with black candidates.
- 9:02Speaker 1: So the messaging for Latinos literally went from Trump's a
- 9:07Speaker 1: racist to You're a racist. And if you're a minority,
- 9:13Speaker 1: you know this really well. The most racist people are
- 9:17Speaker 1: Democrats when you dare disagree with them. They view minorities
- 9:21Speaker 1: as political slaves who aren't permitted to have thoughts of
- 9:24Speaker 1: their own. Someone commented, Latinos are God-fearing and family-loving, the
- 9:29Speaker 1: opposite of the left. It's true. That's 100% true. And
- 9:36Speaker 1: the left does feel like they somehow own these minorities who,
- 9:40Speaker 1: like you guys are commenting, don't share any values with
- 9:43Speaker 1: the left. And it has been truly vile to see
- 9:47Speaker 1: the response on social media. This is one liberal on X.
- 9:50Speaker 1: To all Latinos who voted for Trump, you're a effing disgrace.
- 9:55Speaker 1: I don't care how white your skin is. You will
- 9:58Speaker 1: never be seen as white. You've never Again, what's up
- 9:51Speaker 1: with the left never viewing Americans as Americans? Like we
- 9:53Speaker 1: just always had to put people in racial categories. They're
- 9:56Speaker 1: the ones who are obsessed with skin color. And I
- 10:16Speaker 1: think it's the Democrats who want to use Latinos as
- 10:18Speaker 1: a tool by ginning up fake race wars and putting
- 10:22Speaker 1: us in boxes. A different user wrote, So we're back
- 10:26Speaker 1: now to calling Latinos criminals. Someone else wrote, We have
- 10:41Speaker 1: to have a very, very uncomfortable conversation about Latino voters
- 10:44Speaker 1: in this country. And then another one responded, expecting Latino
- 10:48Speaker 1: people to be smart was the first mistake, LMAO. This
- 10:54Speaker 1: is from a Reddit user. I know this will sound racist,
- 10:57Speaker 1: but Latinos effing disgust me. You know what disgusts me?
- 11:02Speaker 1: This kind of rhetoric. Democrats have zero respect for you
- 11:05Speaker 1: if you don't agree with them. And they will say
- 11:07Speaker 1: the most vile, racist crap about you in retribution. And
- 11:12Speaker 1: by the way, this is some pretty incredible polling because
- 11:15Speaker 1: it's not just Latinos. According to NBC's exit polls, 64%
- 11:20Speaker 1: of Native Americans voted for Trump. Want to guess how
- 11:25Speaker 1: Democrats are responding to that? This is one Twitter user.
- 11:27Speaker 1: 64% of Native Americans voting for Trump Oh, Native American
- 11:32Speaker 1: Heritage Month is cancelled as of now. They'll celebrate diversity
- 11:38Speaker 1: every day until it's diversity of thought, and then they'll
- 11:42Speaker 1: fall right back into stereotyping you and belittling you based
- 11:46Speaker 1: on your race.
- 11:47Speaker 8: It's unreal.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Now, despite all the insistence otherwise, the peer pressure and
- 11:54Speaker 1: fear-mongering was always coming from the left. It always was.
- 11:58Speaker 1: And that's probably why so many Trump supporters were silent
- 12:02Speaker 1: about who they were actually voting for. It's impossible to
- 12:05Speaker 1: poll Trump supporters. A great example of this is a
- 12:08Speaker 1: viral video of a black male Trump voter pretending to
- 12:12Speaker 1: support Kamala as he's heading to the voting booth. I
- 12:16Speaker 1: want you guys to listen to this. It is awesome.
- 12:20Speaker 2: Yeah, Kamala, Kamala. Yeah, Kamala, gotcha.
- 12:33Speaker 1: So the caption says, how would be voting for Trump
- 12:35Speaker 1: in the hood?
- 12:38Speaker 2: I am tired of y'all asses.
- 12:43Speaker 1: I need to vote straight Republican down the line.
- 12:52Speaker 2: All right, we're going to get Kamala in here.
- 12:54Speaker 3: All right.
- 12:57Speaker 1: We're going to get Kamala in here. And it's this
- 12:59Speaker 1: kind of voter that the ladies of The View simply
- 13:03Speaker 1: cannot understand. They showed up yesterday all in black as
- 13:08Speaker 1: if they were in mourning, which is so hilarious. I
- 13:12Speaker 1: just love it. Here is Sunny Hostin's take on what's
- 13:16Speaker 1: happening in America.
- 13:18Speaker 8: I'm surprised at the result, but I'm not surprised. As
- 13:22Speaker 8: a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a
- 13:26Speaker 8: mixed-race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president.
- 13:30Speaker 2: Of this country.
- 13:31Speaker 8: And I think that it had nothing to do with policy.
- 13:34Speaker 8: I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in
- 13:38Speaker 8: this country.
- 13:39Speaker 2: It was racism.
- 13:40Speaker 9: Not the fact that.
- 13:44Speaker 1: that she was second in command to an admin that
- 13:47Speaker 1: oversaw the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal, opened our borders, decimated the economy,
- 13:51Speaker 1: bankrupted us and Ukraine, persecuted political opponents. Yeah, none of
- 13:55Speaker 1: that matters. It was solely because America hates black women.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Great analysis, Sonny. You guys, you just, you really have
- 14:02Speaker 1: a pulse on the people. Speaking of utter lunacy, there
- 14:07Speaker 1: is a subset of very loud and very obnoxious left-wing
- 14:11Speaker 1: women who have responded to Trump's victory very, very poorly.
- 14:15Speaker 1: I'll start you all out with this video. And yes,
- 14:19Speaker 1: this is a real reaction. And you may want to
- 14:22Speaker 1: turn your speakers down because it is truly deranged.
- 14:26Speaker 2: I'm sorry. No, no, no, no. Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
- 14:38Speaker 4: Do you really hate.
- 14:39Speaker 5: Me that bad?
- 14:43Speaker 2: Okay, so.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Yes, thank you. Michael put a little montage together of
- 14:48Speaker 1: Trump and the screaming woman. Someone said a compilation of
- 14:52Speaker 1: a bunch of left-wing women losing their minds. Let's play
- 14:55Speaker 1: that video, Mikey. I want to show you guys an
- 15:09Speaker 1: incredibly deranged take and I'm going to explain a little
- 15:13Speaker 1: bit more after it, but I just want you to
- 15:15Speaker 1: listen and also give you guys a language warning if
- 15:18Speaker 1: you have any kids in the room.
- 15:19Speaker 10: Just woke up this morning feeling spicy. You guys feel spicy?
- 15:22Speaker 1: Because I do. All right.
- 15:23Speaker 10: I don't know how to use this thing.
- 15:25Speaker 11: Let's see what happens.
- 15:27Speaker 10: Is this cutting off hair? I think I'm going to
- 15:29Speaker 10: have to cut it shorter than that.
- 15:30Speaker 11: Buzz it down, right?
- 15:32Speaker 10: I think that this is too... It's getting hair.
- 15:35Speaker 1: The caption says, opting out for B.
- 15:37Speaker 10: Am I giving up on America?
- 15:38Speaker 4: I have.
- 15:39Speaker 10: I'm also giving up on coloring this hair because, right?
- 15:42Speaker 10: Fuck coloring my hair. Fuck having my hair be long
- 15:45Speaker 10: and luxurious.
- 15:47Speaker 12: Fuck all that shit.
- 15:48Speaker 10: Fuck being skinny. Fuck being hot.
- 15:51Speaker 5: Fuck being all the.
- 15:52Speaker 10: Things that the patriarchy wants us to be. Because clearly, they.
- 15:56Speaker 1: Don't give a shit about us.
- 15:57Speaker 10: And I'm talking to you too. Those of you ladies
- 15:59Speaker 10: who have the internalized misogyny required to do what you did.
- 16:03Speaker 10: Minorities who are so scared of a woman in power
- 16:06Speaker 10: that you'd rather cozy up to the white man just
- 16:09Speaker 10: in case some crumbs fall off his plate so that
- 16:11Speaker 10: you may eat from them. I don't know how to
- 16:13Speaker 10: work this thing, but I'm on my way.
- 16:15Speaker 6: I'm going to figure it out.
- 16:16Speaker 10: Let's just do some cutting. You know why?
- 16:18Speaker 1: We're good with that, Mikey. It's taking too long. Now,
- 16:22Speaker 1: this is one of many women trying to shave her head.
- 16:26Speaker 1: She's failing. She doesn't know how to use, whatever. So she's,
- 16:32Speaker 1: Michael says liberals and power tools don't mix. She's trying
- 16:36Speaker 1: to create, along with many other women, a 4B movement
- 16:39Speaker 1: that in the United States. And the 4B movement is
- 16:42Speaker 1: South Korean and 4B stands for four Korean words beginning
- 16:47Speaker 1: in B or which translates to no in English. No
- 16:51Speaker 1: heterosexual marriage, no childbirth, no dating, and no heterosexual sexual relationships.
- 16:57Speaker 1: So 4B women refuse to date, marry, have sex, or
- 17:01Speaker 1: have children with men, effectively boycotting a system that they
- 17:05Speaker 1: feel perpetuates so-called gender inequality. And really this is very
- 17:11Speaker 1: sad because the only people who are harmed by the
- 17:13Speaker 1: 4B movement are the women participating in it. And interestingly,
- 17:17Speaker 1: some women don't seem to realize that 4B is also
- 17:20Speaker 1: a boycott on marriage. And one woman wrote on Reddit,
- 17:25Speaker 1: use their stupid traditional views against them. Say you don't
- 17:28Speaker 1: want sex before marriage. Say you are waiting for the
- 17:31Speaker 1: right man. They will be seething because they are sexually
- 17:34Speaker 1: dependent on women who they call sluts. And then another
- 17:36Speaker 1: person responds, See, this is the best angle. No sex
- 17:40Speaker 1: before marriage. Give them what they voted for. And I
- 17:43Speaker 1: don't know, it sounds kind of base to me. Yes, ladies,
- 17:46Speaker 1: if you want to have sex and wait to have
- 17:49Speaker 1: sex with your husband, it's a great idea because he
- 17:51Speaker 1: will protect you, protect your feelings. You will not be
- 17:58Speaker 1: jumping into a relationship with real risks, meaning a child,
- 18:03Speaker 1: with an uncommitted and irresponsible man. This is what Christianity
- 18:07Speaker 1: has been saying forever. I hope they all take this route.
- 18:10Speaker 1: They don't see the irony at all in what they're suggesting.
- 18:13Speaker 1: By the way, I want to just note that all
- 18:15Speaker 1: these insane 4B screaming, crying white women who are very
- 18:21Speaker 1: loud and very obnoxious, they're actually outliers. Over half of
- 18:26Speaker 1: white women went for Trump. So I really don't want
- 18:29Speaker 1: to hear any more of this white women are ruining
- 18:31Speaker 1: America rhetoric. Go thank a white woman today, especially when
- 18:36Speaker 1: you consider that about 9 in 10 black women went
- 18:39Speaker 1: for Kamala, 6 in 10 Latina women went for Kamala.
- 18:43Speaker 1: White women pulled through. Let's stop blaming white women for
- 18:46Speaker 1: everything and leave the anti-white bigotry to the left. You
- 18:51Speaker 1: guys know what I'm really excited about? I'm really excited
- 18:54Speaker 1: about the Make America Healthy Again movement. Here's RFK Jr.
- 18:57Speaker 1: telling MSNBC that he intends to clear out entire departments
- 19:01Speaker 1: of the FDA.
- 19:02Speaker 4: You see?
- 19:03Speaker 6: Clearing out the corruption in your terms, would that mean
- 19:05Speaker 6: clearing out the top-level federal service workers that are currently
- 19:09Speaker 6: at the FDA and the CDC?
- 19:10Speaker 11: In some categories, I would say.
- 19:12Speaker 2: What does that look like?
- 19:13Speaker 11: In some categories of workers, there are entire departments, like
- 19:17Speaker 11: the nutrition departments at FDA, that have to go. that
- 19:24Speaker 11: are not doing their job. They're not protecting our kids.
- 19:27Speaker 11: Why do we have Froot Loops in this country that
- 19:30Speaker 11: have 18 or 19 ingredients, and you go to Canada
- 19:33Speaker 11: and it's got two or three?
- 19:34Speaker 2: Would you eliminate any of the agencies?
- 19:38Speaker 11: To eliminate the agencies, as long as it requires congressional approval,
- 19:43Speaker 11: I wouldn't be doing that. I can get the corruption
- 19:46Speaker 11: out of the agencies. This is what I've been doing
- 19:48Speaker 11: for 40 years. I've assumed Our government is bought and
- 19:41Speaker 11: sold by big pharma and big food, and it needs
- 19:43Speaker 11: to stop.
- 20:08Speaker 1: We're being lied to and we're being poisoned. And you
- 20:12Speaker 1: know how I think we can really be optimistic about
- 20:14Speaker 1: this is per New Jersey Assemblyman Jamal, Jamal Hawley, top
- 20:21Speaker 1: five CEOs of pharmaceutical companies held an emergency teleconference yesterday
- 20:25Speaker 1: at 1 p.m.
- 20:26Speaker 2: Emergency.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Someone else tweeted Department of Health 2020 versus 2024. And
- 20:33Speaker 1: it is a comparison of Rachel Levine and RFK Jr.
- 20:38Speaker 1: And You have this obese, trance, really unwell-looking man versus
- 20:47Speaker 1: RFK Jr. who has abs. How old is he, Michael?
- 20:51Speaker 1: He's in his 70s, late 60s, at the earliest. I mean,
- 20:56Speaker 1: the contrast is very stark. He's 70 on the money.
- 21:01Speaker 1: This really makes me hopeful for the next four years.
- 21:04Speaker 1: By the way, I need to let you guys know
- 21:06Speaker 1: that the spirit of Peanuts made an appearance during Kamala's
- 21:10Speaker 1: concession speech broadcast. Take a look. So it's before Kamala
- 21:15Speaker 1: comes out and a squirrel is just scurrying across the stage. Really,
- 21:26Speaker 1: I think the peanut the squirrel story was such a
- 21:29Speaker 1: great example of government overreach, of the way that the
- 21:33Speaker 1: priorities of our nation are completely backward. Now, in all seriousness,
- 21:37Speaker 1: we're hearing a lot of praise right now toward Kamala
- 21:41Speaker 1: Harris for her concession speech, for calling Trump. Harry Sisson
- 21:46Speaker 1: wrote on X yesterday, notice how Democrats are accepting the
- 21:49Speaker 1: results of the election and not crying fraud and cheating.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Democrats won't storm the Capitol on January 6th. Just pay
- 21:56Speaker 1: attention to that difference today. And this narrative that Democrats
- 21:59Speaker 1: concede elections could not be further from reality. There was
- 22:04Speaker 1: no peaceful transfer of power in 2016. Obama, Hillary, and
- 22:09Speaker 1: the Democratic Party used the FBI, DOJ, and the media
- 22:12Speaker 1: to depict Trump as a Russian agent. They misled a
- 22:15Speaker 1: FISA court to wiretap Trump's team and fed disinformation to
- 22:20Speaker 1: the media to weaken his presidency. The media that downplayed
- 22:24Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's laptop, pushed the very fine people hoax, and
- 22:27Speaker 1: praised Biden's acuity also misled the public in the 2020
- 22:31Speaker 1: election integrity. while supporting the BLM riots that left spotlit
- 22:37Speaker 1: January 6th in order to label Trump and all of
- 22:40Speaker 1: his supporters national security threats, domestic terrorists. The 2016 transition
- 22:46Speaker 1: of power was the real insurrection. The DNC, the swamp,
- 22:51Speaker 1: and the media stole legitimacy from Trump and defied the
- 22:54Speaker 1: will of the people. January 6th was a democratic protest
- 22:59Speaker 1: orchestrated by regular American citizens, The 2016 Russia hoax and
- 23:03Speaker 1: 2020 government-directed censorship was the real scandal, and it amounted
- 23:08Speaker 1: to the deep state forcing its will on the public.
- 23:13Speaker 1: So no, Harry, Democrats aren't gracious losers, and there's no
- 23:17Speaker 1: reason to think that they will be this time. Here
- 23:19Speaker 1: is the ACLU deputy director just yesterday.
- 23:22Speaker 3: One of the reasons why I want to stress to people,
- 23:25Speaker 3: we need you in the streets because the courts will
- 23:28Speaker 3: not always do everything for us.
- 23:30Speaker 1: But is there more public acceptance or tolerance? We need
- 23:35Speaker 1: you in the streets. Mike Pence predicted that the left
- 23:38Speaker 1: would call for mass demonstrations to validate a deep state
- 23:42Speaker 1: coup as somehow sanctioned by the people. Mike Pence also
- 23:46Speaker 1: predicted that there would be a movement to destroy Elon
- 23:49Speaker 1: Musk because of the pivotal role that he played in
- 23:52Speaker 1: creating a free speech public square. And sure enough, here
- 23:56Speaker 1: were the ladies on The View yesterday.
- 23:58Speaker 12: Well, it would help if we could regulate social media
- 24:02Speaker 12: because one of the biggest offenders is D.C. and Congress
- 24:05Speaker 12: have not been able to do one thing in regard
- 24:07Speaker 12: to the rogue corporations of social media. It's not going
- 24:10Speaker 12: to get any better with Elon Musk in the administration.
- 24:15Speaker 1: Regulate social media so people don't say things that they
- 24:18Speaker 1: don't like. That is what she just said. I want
- 24:21Speaker 1: you to listen to Mike Benz during the election night
- 24:23Speaker 1: coverage that we had with Dan, myself, Julie Kelly. He
- 24:29Speaker 1: discusses the significance of Elon Musk and his bravery since
- 24:33Speaker 1: acquiring Twitter.
- 24:36Speaker 2: Mike, you are the man on the deep state. Elon
- 24:39Speaker 2: was the game changer for free speech, wasn't he?
- 24:41Speaker 3: A guy with the assets to finally take on this
- 24:45Speaker 3: big state, deep state monolith.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Absolutely, he was.
- 24:48Speaker 9: The difference between Elon and Zuckerberg is really interesting. It's
- 24:51Speaker 9: not just the difference between a double digit billionaire in
- 24:54Speaker 9: Zuckerberg and a triple digit billionaire in Moscow. Zuckerberg had
- 24:57Speaker 9: those misgivings about censorship while he was running Facebook. He
- 25:00Speaker 9: said in 2019 that he thought censorship had gone too
- 25:03Speaker 9: far on Facebook. But then an operation called Change the
- 25:06Speaker 9: Terms was run. Facebook lost $ 60 billion in market cap
- 25:10Speaker 9: in just six weeks. And so Zuckerberg caved and gave
- 25:13Speaker 9: the advertisers everything they wanted. When Elon Musk, that same
- 25:17Speaker 9: fastball came at him, he gave double barrel middle fingers
- 25:20Speaker 9: and said, GFY. So I think Zuckerberg feels those sort
- 25:24Speaker 9: of libertarian free speech principles, but is not willing to
- 25:27Speaker 9: sacrifice the financial and business enterprise that he's developed.
- 25:31Speaker 2: Whereas Elon Musk, when he was asked during.
- 25:33Speaker 9: That pivotal interview with the advertisers, well, what will you
- 25:36Speaker 9: do if X goes bankrupt? What if they actually kill
- 25:39Speaker 9: the company? And he says, let them kill the company.
- 25:41Speaker 9: The world will watch.
- 25:42Speaker 2: He basically set himself up practically on.
- 25:45Speaker 9: The cross allegorically to say, listen, you can come at me.
- 25:48Speaker 2: I may go to jail for this.
- 25:50Speaker 9: I may lose Tesla and SpaceX, but I believe in
- 25:52Speaker 9: human civilization.
- 25:54Speaker 2: I believe in human freedom.
- 25:55Speaker 9: His life purpose is essentially to fight for that at
- 25:57Speaker 9: this point.
- 25:58Speaker 2: And it was the game changer.
- 26:02Speaker 1: It was a principled stand against the advertisers, against our government.
- 26:07Speaker 1: And don't doubt for a second that they won't come
- 26:09Speaker 1: after Elon, again, somehow, some way to punish him, exposes
- 26:14Speaker 1: an existential threat to the state's power. And they will
- 26:19Speaker 1: do anything to destroy it. Free expression is the most
- 26:23Speaker 1: critical battle that we are going to face. If we
- 26:27Speaker 1: don't have the ability to speak, we don't have anything.
- 26:31Speaker 1: Elon tweeted this week, the reality of this election was
- 26:36Speaker 1: plain to see on X. While most legacy media lied
- 26:40Speaker 1: relentlessly to the public, you are the media now. Please
- 26:43Speaker 1: post your thoughts and observations on X. Correct others when wrong,
- 26:47Speaker 1: and we will have at least one place in the
- 26:49Speaker 1: world where you can come to find the truth. And
- 26:53Speaker 1: this sentiment is a radical departure from what the media
- 26:56Speaker 1: and our own government is consistently telling us. That we
- 26:59Speaker 1: need state-approved institutions to tell us. what is and isn't true.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Alternative media is bad and can't be trusted. And the
- 27:06Speaker 1: reality is that no flawed man has a monopoly on
- 27:09Speaker 1: the truth. Only God is infallible. And last I checked,
- 27:13Speaker 1: Rachel Maddow was not God. In a fallen world, the
- 27:16Speaker 1: pursuit of truth demands the freedom to express it. The
- 27:21Speaker 1: vibrancy of this election cycle owes itself to the unimpeded
- 27:26Speaker 1: flow of free expression provided by X. Who could forget
- 27:31Speaker 1: the grimness of 2020, when every discussion surrounding election integrity
- 27:36Speaker 1: was swiftly silenced. In 2020, I still remember how horrified
- 27:41Speaker 1: I felt after, well, it would have been 2021, after
- 27:45Speaker 1: Trump was banned across all platforms, how horrified I was
- 27:49Speaker 1: as the Twitter follow counts of my colleagues at The
- 27:53Speaker 1: Federalist plummeted. Every right-winger plummeted. And we wondered, How many
- 27:59Speaker 1: people were being erased from the platform? Who were they?
- 28:02Speaker 1: Why are they gone now? We were being muzzled, literally
- 28:06Speaker 1: forced to wear anti-science masks wherever we went and coerced
- 28:11Speaker 1: into taking experimental COVID shots or risk losing our livelihoods.
- 28:15Speaker 1: In my case, I was almost kicked out of college.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Our cities were burned in race riots. Statues from our
- 28:21Speaker 1: founding fathers were torn down. Our national identity and cultural
- 28:25Speaker 1: heritage under assault. And when I reflect on that period,
- 28:29Speaker 1: it felt as though the world was cloaked in a
- 28:32Speaker 1: shadow of gray. But then Elon Musk acquired Twitter, and
- 28:37Speaker 1: suddenly the color slowly began to return. Voices that had
- 28:42Speaker 1: been silenced for years, even before January 6th, re-entered the
- 28:46Speaker 1: national discourse. We, the people, held the media accountable. We
- 28:53Speaker 1: turned Trump's McDonald's and garbage truck stunts into viral memes.
- 28:58Speaker 1: We immortalized Peanut the squirrel and shared the iconic image
- 29:02Speaker 1: of the assassination attempt far and wide to the point
- 29:05Speaker 1: where Google censorship efforts were absolutely futile. This has been
- 29:10Speaker 1: nothing short of a remarkable arc, a true hero's journey,
- 29:14Speaker 1: and the story is far from over. The battle for
- 29:16Speaker 1: the soul of the nation will continue, but today we
- 29:19Speaker 1: have a reason to celebrate. And that's all I have
