😕 Nikki Haley Drops Out of the Presidential Race

This paragraph discusses Nikki Haley's withdrawal from the 2024 Republican presidential primary race due to her poor performance against Donald Trump on Super Tuesday. It highlights Trump's convincing victories over Haley in several states, including her home state of South Carolina. The paragraph suggests that Haley's decision to stay in the race after Iowa was likely to position herself as a potential opposition leader should Trump lose the general election in November, but this approach is criticized as a misread of how Republicans view Trump.

05:01

🇺🇸 Immigration Emerges as a Top Issue for Republicans

This paragraph examines the significance of immigration as a top issue for Republican voters in the 2024 presidential primaries. Exit polls showed that immigration was the leading concern for Republican voters, reflecting the ongoing crisis at the southern border under the Biden administration. The paragraph also highlights a Pew Research Center survey indicating that a majority of Americans, including Independents, consider dealing with illegal immigration a top priority. However, it criticizes the Biden administration's response, suggesting that Democrats are disconnected from public sentiment on this issue.

👩‍💼 Kirsten Sinema Announces Retirement from the Senate

This paragraph discusses Senator Kirsten Sinema's decision not to seek re-election and retire after her current term. It portrays Sinema as a centrist lawmaker who forged bipartisan deals but also angered progressive Democrats. The paragraph contrasts Sinema's retirement with the case of Mitt Romney, who was pressured by Republicans to step aside, noting that Arizona is a purple state. It also mentions Ruben Gallego, the far-left Democratic candidate vying to replace Sinema, and the potential impact of her retirement on the Senate race in Arizona.

🤯 Joe Biden's Bizarre Behavior and Struggles as President

This paragraph highlights several instances of Joe Biden's bizarre behavior and cognitive struggles as President. It includes examples of Biden reading stage directions out loud, forgetting what he's supposed to do, and needing notes from his staff to remind him of upcoming commitments. The paragraph also criticizes Biden's campaign strategy of blaming corporations for 'shrinkflation' (reducing product sizes while maintaining prices) as a way to deflect from his poor economic record and inflation during his presidency.

20:04

🌡️ Mounting Concerns About Biden's Age and Fitness for Office

This paragraph focuses on the heightened stakes surrounding Joe Biden's upcoming State of the Union address. With growing worries about his age, vitality, and ability to handle various crises, the speech is seen as a crucial opportunity for Biden to demonstrate his physical and mental fitness for office. The paragraph suggests that Biden's performance during the address, including how he physically delivers it, will be closely scrutinized by millions of viewers, potentially shaping public perception of his presidency.

25:04

🇮🇱 The Biden Administration's Stance on the Israel-Hamas Conflict

This paragraph examines the Biden administration's approach to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. It criticizes the administration for pursuing ceasefires and granting rhetorical sympathy to Hamas, a designated terrorist organization holding American hostages. The paragraph highlights instances where the Biden administration has blamed Israel for the violence, suggested moral equivalence between Israel and Hamas, and called for ceasefires during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which is seen as favoring Hamas's position. It also discusses Israel's efforts to allow aid into Gaza, which are often hindered by Hamas itself.

30:06

⚔️ Escalating Tensions and Potential for Wider Conflict

This paragraph discusses the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran-backed militant groups, particularly Hezbollah in Lebanon. It mentions the recent rocket attacks by Hezbollah into northern Israel, forcing thousands of Israelis to evacuate their homes. The paragraph suggests that there is a widespread expectation in Israel of a large-scale war with Hezbollah in the coming months due to its stockpile of over 200,000 rockets. It also criticizes the Biden administration for prioritizing ceasefires over supporting Israel's efforts to neutralize the threat posed by terrorist groups like Hamas.

35:07

😡 Criticizing the Democratic Party's Radical Shift

This paragraph criticizes the Democratic Party's radical shift to the left, which has led to a disconnect with public sentiment on issues like immigration and support for Israel. It argues that the party's radical base is pushing the Biden administration towards positions that are out of touch with the mainstream, such as pursuing ceasefires with Hamas and downplaying the threat of illegal immigration. The paragraph suggests that this radical shift is a broader trend within the Democratic Party, driven by a desire to tear down traditional Judeo-Christian moral values and embrace postmodernist narratives of oppression and victimhood.

40:08

😈 Judith Butler's Defense of Hamas as 'Armed Resistance'

This paragraph examines the controversial views of academic Judith Butler, a prominent figure in gender theory and postmodern thought. It highlights Butler's defense of Hamas's actions against Israel, characterizing them as 'armed resistance' against oppression rather than terrorism or anti-Semitism. The paragraph strongly criticizes Butler's moral relativism and her willingness to justify violence based on a narrative of victimhood. It also notes the irony of Butler aligning herself with a group that would likely persecute her for her identity if given the chance, underscoring the dangers of her postmodernist ideology.

45:09

☠️ The Danger of Postmodern Narratives and Moral Relativism

This paragraph expands on the dangers posed by postmodern narratives and moral relativism, as exemplified by Judith Butler's defense of Hamas. It argues that these ideologies, which redefine morality based on perceived oppression and victimhood, threaten Judeo-Christian moral values and the foundations of Western civilization. The paragraph suggests that the left's embrace of these narratives has led to a coalition of the 'pseudo-oppressed,' who justify violence and immorality in the name of resistance against perceived systems of oppression. It warns that treating these symptoms in isolation, without addressing the underlying malady of radical left-wing thought, will only allow the cancer to metastasize further.

Keywords

💡Republican Primary

A Republican primary is a preliminary election process where voters from the Republican Party select their preferred candidate to represent the party in the general election for various political offices, such as President, Senators, or Representatives. In the context of the video, it discusses the recent Republican primaries for the 2024 presidential election, where Donald Trump has emerged as the dominant front-runner, causing many of his opponents, like Nikki Haley, to drop out of the race.

💡Super Tuesday

Super Tuesday refers to a particular day during the primary season when a significant number of states hold their primary elections or caucuses simultaneously. It is considered a crucial milestone in the presidential nomination process. The video mentions that Donald Trump dominated the Super Tuesday primaries, further solidifying his lead and causing challengers like Nikki Haley to reevaluate their campaigns.

💡Immigration

Immigration is the movement of people into a country from another region or nation, either permanently or temporarily. It is discussed extensively in the video as a major political issue that has become polarizing in the United States. Exit polls from the Republican primaries showed that immigration was a top concern for Republican voters. The video also discusses the Biden administration's stance on immigration, particularly concerning the situation at the southern border and the influx of undocumented immigrants.

💡State of the Union Address

The State of the Union Address is an annual message delivered by the President of the United States to a joint session of the United States Congress. In this address, the President outlines the current condition of the nation and lays out their legislative agenda and priorities for the upcoming year. The video discusses the high stakes and expectations surrounding President Biden's upcoming State of the Union Address, particularly in light of his age, various crises, and domestic challenges.

💡Hamas

Hamas is a Palestinian Sunni-Islamic fundamentalist, militant, and nationalist organization that has waged an armed struggle against Israel with the stated goal of establishing an independent Islamic state in historical Palestine. The video focuses extensively on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, the Biden administration's stance on the conflict, and the moral implications of supporting or condemning Hamas's actions.

💡Ramadan

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. The video criticizes President Biden's suggestion of seeking a ceasefire with Hamas during Ramadan, implying that it is an inappropriate consideration given Hamas's violent and extremist actions, which contradict the principles of Ramadan.

💡Postmodernism

Postmodernism is a broad movement that developed in the mid-to-late 20th century across philosophy, the arts, architecture, and criticism, which marked a departure from modernist thought. The video discusses postmodernist notions, such as the idea that morality and gender are socially constructed, and their influence on academics like Judith Butler, who has justified Hamas's actions as acts of resistance against an oppressive system.

💡Judeo-Christian Morality

Judeo-Christian morality refers to the moral principles and values derived from the teachings of Judaism and Christianity, which have significantly influenced Western civilization's ethical foundations. The video contrasts this traditional moral framework with the postmodernist deconstruction of morality, suggesting that the latter has enabled a concerning moral ambivalence towards issues like the Israel-Hamas conflict.

💡Oppressor-Oppressed Narrative

The oppressor-oppressed narrative is a framework that views societal dynamics and conflicts through the lens of a binary between those who hold power and privilege (the oppressors) and those who are marginalized or disadvantaged (the oppressed). The video discusses how this narrative has been adopted by the left, leading to a concerning justification of the actions of groups like Hamas as acts of resistance against an oppressive system, even if their actions are morally reprehensible.

💡Coalition Politics

Coalition politics refers to the formation of political alliances or coalitions between different groups or ideologies, often to achieve specific goals or gain power. The video suggests that seemingly disparate groups on the left, such as LGBTQ activists and Hamas supporters, have formed a coalition based on their shared opposition to the perceived oppressive system, despite their inherent contradictions and the potential for mutual enmity.

Highlights

The current date is Friday, March 08, 2024. Claude's knowledge base was last updated in August 2023 and it answers user questions about events before August 2023 and after August 2023 the same way a highly informed individual from August 2023 would if they were talking to someone from Friday, March 08, 2024.

Donald Trump dominated super Tuesday this of course was not a shock the only question was why she was staying in because the reality was that in every state except for Vermont Trump not only won he won convincingly in her home state of South Carolina he beat her by about 20 points.

Nikki Haley plans to suspend her Republican presidential primary bid in a speech on Wednesday the former South Carolina governor and un Ambassador expected to make an appearance to deliver brief Amar remarks around 10:00 a.m. eastern her decision arrived the day after super Tuesday she won only Vermont among the 15 states and Vermont is basically Canada.

According to the Wall Street Journal Cinema said she will not run for re-election and will retire after this term ending for now the political run of one of congress's most productive and controversial lawmakers a Centrist who forged bipartisan deals while also regularly angering Progressive Democrats.

The Biden Administration they're pursuing a ceasefire and Kamas is rejecting every ceasefire Hamas literally rejected the last ceasefire offer that ceasefire offer was a an offer for a six-week ceasefire in return for leasing the remaining female hostages and Kamas rejected it outright.

While Holding Out for Hamas to accept a ceasefire and hostage released proposal us and Arab negotiators floated a potential short pause to hostilities while the larger deal gets ironed out so what would that mean that would mean calling for a ceasefire without any hostages being released which is called losing.

Iran is activating all of its proxies they know they've got a they have a they have a fish on the line and that fish is the Biden Administration so, bah has been heating up because they know that Joe Biden wants one thing above all and that is a ceasefire in the region and so they are ratcheting up their military action in the attempt to gain concessions via the United States from the Israelis.

Kah launched 50 Rockets into the North of Israel now any self-respecting country receiving 50 Rockets across its border would then go and W the people on the other side of the Border can you imagine if the Mexican Government not the drug cartels the government because kah basically runs the government in Lebanon decided that they were going to launch 50 Rockets into San Diego Mexico City would not exist the next morning at the very least you'd have Marines sipping tea from the capital.

The left has decided that basically if you are evil enough this means you earn a free ticket to left wingland it's great if you're evil enough this suggests that you're victimized see in the victim victim victimizer narrative the oppressor oppressed narrative whoever is the worst is considered the oppressed.

Judith Butler is one of the most damaging academics of the last 60 years she is famously a founder of queer Theory she's a person who became famous by suggesting that all of gender is a social construct there's no linkage whatsoever between your biology and your behavior it's all a social construct.

Judith Butler decided to lay down a theory her theory is that October 7th which involved the mass rape of women the murder of men, women the slaughter of children the beheading of foreigners and Jews the kidnapping of women and repeated rape of those women that all of that was just an act of resistance.

The postmodernist notion that all morality is effectively constructed but there's a victim and a victimizer and the victimizer is always the successful person and the victim is always the failure and that's because the system itself is bad that's how you end up with gender queer non-conforming Judith Butler on the same side as Kamas who would gladly chop off her head in a moment where she'd be placed into the Gaza Strip.

The alliance exists and it is a danger to the West it is not just a danger to Israel it is a danger to the West there are millions of people who believe the softer form of what she is saying and the left has patted this on the head the left has em bibed from this well this is the difference between the old school Democratic liberals and the far-left Bernie Sanders Wing that is taking over the Democratic party and it's all part of a piece.

The bizarre leftwing support of Hamas is an amazing indicator of just How Deeply rooted the cancer of radical left thought has gone and it really has gone quite deep.

The highlights summarize the key points about Claude's knowledge cutoff date, Donald Trump's dominance in the Republican primaries, Nikki Haley and Kirsten Sinema's political moves, the Biden administration's dealings with Hamas and Israel, criticisms of left-wing academics like Judith Butler justifying Hamas, and the broader implications of radical left-wing thought spreading.

well it's the end of the road for Nikki

00:01

Haley the former un Ambassador under

00:03

Donald Trump former governor of South

00:06

Carolina she is dropping out of the race

00:08

today because Donald Trump dominated

00:10

super Tuesday this of course was not a

00:12

shock the only question was why she was

00:14

staying in because the reality was that

00:16

in every state except for Vermont Trump

00:18

not only won he won convincingly in her

00:20

home state of South Carolina he beat her

00:22

by about 20 points he beat her 60 to 40

00:25

in North Carolina he beat her 73 to 23

00:27

in Virginia he beat her 63 to 34 these

00:30

are all particularly Virginia Virginia

00:32

is a moderate Republican state that is

00:34

not a left-wing Republican state and and

00:37

or right-wing Republican state and he

00:38

beat her very soundly in that state in

00:41

California he beat her 78 to 18 what

00:44

this suggests is that she really had no

00:46

shot at the nomination after Iowa no one

00:48

had a shot at the nomination after Iowa

00:50

as I pointed out which is why Ronda

00:51

santis dropped out early it's also why

00:54

Nikki Haley then stayed in in the hope

00:55

that she would win New Hampshire she

00:56

didn't win New Hampshire she

00:57

overperformed a little bit and then she

00:59

stayed in passed that mainly to I think

01:02

put up a flag to the rest of the

01:03

Republican party that should Trump lose

01:05

in November she will be the leader of

01:07

the opposition ready to come in and take

01:09

over I think that's a misread of how

01:11

Republicans think of Donald Trump I

01:13

think that even if Donald Trump loses in

01:15

November in the general election to Joe

01:17

Biden it's very unlikely that the

01:18

Republican party is then going to swivel

01:20

and turn to Nikki Haley especially

01:22

because Nikki Haley seems to be making

01:23

the same mistake that Ted Cruz made in

01:25

2016 after losing the primaries to

01:27

Donald Trump you'll recall that Ted Cruz

01:29

then went to the Republican National

01:30

Convention and he said vote your

01:32

conscience instead of just endorsing

01:34

Trump he sort of left it up in the air

01:35

pleasing no one he suggested to the

01:37

Trump voters that maybe he wasn't

01:38

supportive of trump and to the not Trump

01:40

voters that maybe he was supportive of

01:41

trump and he ended up winning no backing

01:44

because of that Nikki Haley seems to be

01:45

playing the same game which doesn't seem

01:47

particularly politically smart to me

01:49

it's one thing for Nikki Haley to say

01:50

I'm staying in as an alternative to

01:51

Trump because I think that he's going to

01:53

lose but now that he's the nominee he's

01:54

the nominee for her to sit outside and

01:56

not endorse Trump seems to me a bit of

01:58

political malpractice

02:00

according to the Wall Street Journal

02:01

Haley plans to suspend her Republican

02:04

presidential primary bid in a speech on

02:06

Wednesday the former South Carolina

02:07

governor and un Ambassador expected to

02:09

make an appearance to deliver brief Amar

02:10

remarks around 10:00 a.m. eastern her

02:13

decision arrived the day after super

02:14

Tuesday she won only Vermont among the

02:15

15 states and Vermont is basically

02:17

Canada she's not going to announce an

02:19

endorsement on Wednesday however she's

02:21

going to encourage Donald Trump to earn

02:22

the support of Republicans and

02:23

independent voters who have backed her

02:25

which presumably could theoretically be

02:27

a VI a vice presidential play maybe

02:28

she's hoping that he her as sort of a

02:30

Unity ticket but given his dominant

02:32

performance in the primaries very

02:34

unlikely at this point that he feels the

02:35

necessity to do that so lot of eyes are

02:37

going to turn toward who he actually

02:39

does pick for his VP there are a lot of

02:42

people who have been mentioned ranging

02:43

from JD Vance the senator from Ohio to

02:45

Tim Scott the senator from South

02:48

Carolina we will have to wait and see

02:50

Donald Trump for his part delivered a

02:52

super Tuesday victory speech in which he

02:55

triumphantly proclaimed that he was the

02:56

nominee which of course has been true

02:58

basically since Iowa once he won Iowa

02:59

while the thing was

03:01

over we've watched our country take a

03:04

great beating over the last 3 years and

03:07

nobody thought a thing like this would

03:09

be possible we wouldn't have Russia

03:13

attacking Ukraine we wouldn't have

03:15

Israel being attacked Iran as you know

03:18

was broke when I was running things they

03:20

were broke they didn't have money for

03:22

Hamas they didn't have money for

03:24

Hezbollah we had no inflation inflation

03:27

is destroying the middle class it's

03:30

destroying everything inflation if you

03:32

look back over the history hundreds of

03:35

years back it's called inflation it's

03:36

called a country Buster and that's what

03:39

it's doing to our country what's

03:40

happened with inflation has been

03:43

unbelievable a lot of people say a lot

03:45

of experts have said the stock market's

03:47

the only thing that's doing well and

03:48

that's doing well because our poll

03:51

numbers are so much higher than Joe

03:55

Biden's okay so all of that is true

03:57

except for the last part nobody is

03:58

really suggesting that these stock

03:59

market is doing well because of the

04:01

expectation that Donald Trump is going

04:02

to win in November the stock market is

04:04

doing well because when you inflate the

04:05

currency people don't have any other

04:07

place to put their investment money if

04:09

you put your investment money in cash it

04:11

loses value so people have started

04:12

investing in speculative stock bubbles

04:14

which is why the price to earnings

04:16

ratios right now on Wall Street are

04:18

completely out of whack and probably

04:20

we're experiencing a bubble on the Dow

04:22

Jones Industrial Average in the New York

04:23

Stock Exchange for example Donald Trump

04:25

then went on to rip Joe Biden on migrant

04:27

crime again he's doing the right thing

04:29

in this victory speech which has put all

04:30

the focus on Joe Biden if this entire

04:33

campaign is about Joe Biden Joe Biden is

04:34

not going to win Trump I think knows

04:36

that the only question is whether Trump

04:38

steps on himself he didn't do it last

04:40

night

04:41

really we have the worst numbers

04:43

probably probably in the history of the

04:45

world it's uh sad to see what's

04:48

happening to our cities our cities are

04:50

being overrun with migrant crime and

04:54

that's Biden migrant crime but it's a

04:57

new category of crime and it's violent

05:00

where they'll stand in the middle of the

05:02

street and have fist fights with police

05:04

officers and if they did that in their

05:05

countries from where they came they'd be

05:08

killed instantly instantly they wouldn't

05:11

do that so the world is laughing at us

05:15

the world has taking advantage of

05:17

us 3 years ago we were at a level we

05:20

were energy independent we're going to

05:22

be very shortly energy dominant and

05:24

today we're getting oil from Venezuela

05:27

can you believe

05:28

it again he is not wrong about any of

05:31

this sort of stuff now the exit polls

05:34

for Republicans showed that their top

05:36

issue was immigration which is not a

05:37

surprise because it is in fact the top

05:39

issue in the country right now even

05:42

according to much of the polling data

05:44

for the general American population the

05:46

reality is that immigration is a top

05:48

issue because people are looking at the

05:50

insane amount of illegal immigration

05:51

under Joe Biden you're talking about at

05:53

least 7 million people have entered the

05:54

country illegally while Joe Biden has

05:56

been president may all the way be all

05:57

the way up to 10 million we literally

05:58

have no idea and people see that as a

06:00

crisis because it is in fact a crisis so

06:03

the exit poll showed that was the top

06:04

issue for Republicans now very often

06:08

when you take exit polls people will say

06:09

the economy but that's always vague

06:11

nobody actually knows what that means

06:12

obviously in a Republican Primary people

06:13

are going to pick the issue that is the

06:15

most polarized issue because they're

06:16

voting Republican so it's not a shock

06:18

they're picking immigration but the

06:19

reality is that according to a Pew

06:22

research censor survey taken just last

06:24

month it shows that immigration is a top

06:27

issue for a huge majority of Americans

06:29

dealing with immigration 57% of

06:31

Americans say that that should be the

06:33

top priority this year is dealing with

06:35

illegal immigration and when it comes to

06:38

immigration Joe Biden is 20 points

06:39

underwater this of course is leading

06:41

Democrats down a real rabbit hole here

06:45

they have two choices they can either

06:46

moderate on immigration or they can

06:48

pretend that voters are out of their

06:50

minds obviously they're going to do what

06:52

07:56

Shapiro so last night on MSNBC after

07:59

after the exit polling came out showing

08:00

Republicans care about immigration

08:01

Democrats like Jens saki who's the

08:03

former press secretary for Joe Biden

08:05

were mocking Republicans for caring

08:07

about immigration I mean if you look at

08:09

some of these exit Poes I mean I live in

08:11

Virginia immigration was the number one

08:13

issue ACC I mean again these could

08:15

change in in Virginia well Virginia does

08:18

have a border with West Virginia very

08:20

very contested like

08:24

what or maybe people are worried that

08:27

illegal immigrants are going to show up

08:29

where they live and might commit crimes

08:32

or maybe they are worried about the vast

08:34

cultural changes that could be wrought

08:36

by importing millions of people who have

08:37

no familiarity with American concepts of

08:40

things like free speech and property

08:41

rights or maybe they are simply worried

08:44

about the fact that you are generating

08:46

an entire economic underclass of people

08:48

many of whom will be dependent on

08:49

welfare benefits and many of whom are

08:51

going to be lowering the wage base in

08:52

the like there are a lot of reasons why

08:53

people in Virginia might be worried

08:55

about illegal immigration and again

08:58

Democrats are disconnected from this

08:59

issue this is the issue among the issues

09:01

that Pew surveys in which there is the

09:03

biggest gap between how Democrats think

09:05

and how Independents think forget about

09:06

Republicans independent so according to

09:10

the polling data from Pew 39% of

09:13

Democrats believe that immigration is a

09:15

real concern compared to 57% of

09:18

Independents and 76% of Republicans that

09:22

is a high number of Independents who are

09:24

deeply worried about immigration and

09:26

that number is up from 53% in 2023 and

09:29

49% in

09:30

2022 Democrats meanwhile are still stuck

09:33

down in the mid-30s on this thing when

09:36

it comes to policy goals again

09:39

Independents look more like Republicans

09:41

on a lot of these issues than they look

09:43

like Democrats on a lot of these issues

09:44

and that's a problem for the Democrats

09:46

the white house because they are stuck

09:49

as I've been saying in this Legacy Media

09:50

Echo chamber in which the idea for them

09:52

is doubled down on the base they're

09:54

ignoring all this so the White House

09:55

yesterday for example they were asked

09:57

about Lake and Riley's murder L Riley of

09:59

course was the young woman who was

10:00

killed at University of Georgia by an

10:02

illegal immigrant and the White House

10:03

tried to blame Donald Trump for that

10:04

that dog is not going to hunt the

10:06

president of the United States is Joe

10:07

Biden he needs to close the border and

10:09

everybody knows

10:10

it will President Biden publicly address

10:14

lak and Riley's murder allegedly at the

10:16

hands of an illegal immigrant who was

10:18

released by law enforcement multiple

10:20

times on Thursday night we want to

10:23

always uh always be sure that we left

10:25

lift up the families who have lost their

10:27

loved ones in that way I would be remiss

10:29

if I did not continue to say that

10:31

Republicans rejected a bipartisan

10:34

proposal that came out of the Senate and

10:36

so if they truly truly cared about what

10:38

was going on at the border if they truly

10:40

cared about this immigration policy and

10:43

trying to fix that trying to move

10:45

forward in a step in a way where we have

10:47

a tough and fair uh law they would work

10:51

with us on it they wouldn't listen to

10:52

the former president who is clearly

10:54

telling them to reject telling

10:55

Republicans to reject it for their for

10:57

his own political gain

11:00

again if they think this is a winning

11:02

political argument they're out of their

11:03

minds and this again goes to the reality

11:06

of today's modern politics and that is

11:08

everybody in the media is convinced that

11:09

the rightwing has gone crazy and they've

11:11

gone too far right and they're picking

11:12

crazy candidates and there is some truth

11:14

to that if you look at the last round of

11:15

senatorial races Republicans picked a

11:17

bunch of terrible candidates in a bunch

11:19

of winnable races and then they lost

11:20

those races but Democrats are now doing

11:23

the same thing we now have a game of

11:25

chicken in which both sides have decided

11:27

to put the radical brick on the on the

11:29

accelerator and then just aim the cars

11:30

at each other and the question is who is

11:32

going to pull away first before the cars

11:35

crash whoever pulls away first in this

11:37

case actually wins okay it is not as

11:39

though if you just continue along that

11:41

path and the other guy pulls away you

11:43

win it's the opposite in fact basically

11:45

this game of chicken is both cars are

11:47

aimed at the cliff which side is going

11:49

to stop before the cliff at all forget

11:51

about close to the edge who's going to

11:52

stop at all the reason I point this out

11:54

is because yesterday Christian Cinema

11:57

the senator from Arizona who started off

11:59

as a Democrat and then governed as a

12:00

moderate Democrat in what is a moderate

12:02

purple State purple Arizona is a purple

12:04

state it was largely a red state it had

12:06

a State Assembly and a state legislature

12:08

that state senate that were both

12:10

Republican with Doug Ducey Arizona

12:12

governor as a republican until just very

12:15

recently and then the Arizona Republican

12:17

party decided they were going to shoot

12:18

themselves directly in the chest by

12:20

embracing every form of election

12:23

questioning they possibly could

12:24

alienating every moderate in the entire

12:25

State and electing two Democratic

12:27

senators and a democratic Governor Katie

12:30

Hobbs who's wet dishrag over in Arizona

12:33

now the problem is that the underlying

12:36

political character of the State of

12:38

Arizona remains purple there's a reason

12:40

why until very recently both senators

12:42

were purple to Red Senators it was it

12:45

was John McCain until he passed away and

12:47

Jeff Flake until Donald Trump basically

12:50

destroyed him and those were both

12:52

replaced by democrats and so the

12:53

Democrats who replac them have had to

12:55

govern from quasi the middle so Mark

12:57

Kelly who's one of the Senators he's

12:59

attempted to govern as sort of a bluish

13:02

purple Democrat Kristen Cinema was so

13:05

purple that she eventually just went

13:06

purple and decided to declare herself

13:09

independent but then she decided not to

13:12

run for re-election because the

13:13

Democratic party had basically cast her

13:14

out and they decided to primary her so

13:16

instead of just having Kirsten Cinema

13:17

being independent Like Bernie Sanders

13:18

who caucuses with the Democrats which is

13:20

what Kirsten Cinema would do they didn't

13:22

trust her enough so they decided to run

13:24

against her Ruben gyo who's A far-

13:26

leftist in Arizona and so the polls were

13:30

showing a pretty even three-way split

13:33

with Kristen Cinema in the race you had

13:35

the entire Democratic party behind gyo

13:38

there's an Emerson College polling Hill

13:40

survey that was taken just a couple of

13:43

weeks ago and it found that Ruben gyo

13:45

had 36% support 30% for Carrie Lake the

13:49

Republican nominee for the Senate and

13:51

21% for kren Cinema 13%

13:55

undecided and so kren Cinema looked at

13:57

that so Democrats could have easily

13:59

dominated this race if they had just

14:00

said okay fine we're not going to run

14:01

against Kirsten Cinema we understand

14:03

she's an independent but she's going to

14:04

caucus with us we're just going to stay

14:05

out she easily wins re-election in

14:07

Arizona she's a pretty popular Senator

14:09

but they decided not to do that and so

14:11

now they're basically getting rid of her

14:13

in favor of Ruben gyo which makes their

14:14

race actually significantly harder

14:16

because gyo is not in the mainstream of

14:18

Arizona politics we'll get to more on

14:20

this in just one second first let's face

14:21

it your bank sucks I know what bank you

14:23

use but it sucks that's why you need

14:25

current current build card is secured

14:27

credit card that lets you use your own

14:29

money to build your credit it basically

14:30

functions like a debit card but rather

14:32

than borrowing money you don't have and

14:33

getting dinged with 25% interest fees

14:35

every time you do you use your own money

14:37

and improve your credit score as you do

14:40

I mean there have been times in my life

14:41

where you've been running up against the

14:42

credit card limit it's really

14:44

uncomfortable or where you're worried

14:45

about blowing out your credit you might

14:47

not think building credit is very

14:48

important right now but it really really

14:50

is when you go to buy a car or a house

14:51

the first thing they ask for is your

14:52

credit score you need to start building

14:54

your credit the best way to do that is

14:55

with current current is a more

14:57

affordable accessible innovative banking

14:59

system they help you better spend save

15:00

and manage your money there are no

15:01

credit checks or credit histories

15:03

required there are no annual or

15:04

subscription fees if you set up direct

15:06

deposit with current you get paid up to

15:07

two days faster and you can qualify for

15:10

fee-free overdraft of up to 200 bucks

15:12

the world is changing so it's time

15:13

banking did too what are you waiting for

15:15

get current the future of banking go to

15:17

current.com airo or download the app

15:19

that's current.com spelled c nt.com

15:23

Shapiro terms apply current is a

15:25

financial technology company not a bank

15:27

banking services provided by choice cial

15:28

group member FDIC and cross river bank

15:30

member FDIC for full terms and

15:32

conditions visit current.com or call 888

15:34

851 11172 for more information according

15:37

to the Wall Street Journal Cinema said

15:39

she will not run for re-election and

15:40

will retire after this term ending for

15:42

now the political run of one of

15:43

congress's most productive and

15:44

controversial lawmakers a Centrist who

15:46

forged bipartisan deals while also

15:47

regularly angering Progressive Democrats

15:49

this is a different thing by the way

15:50

than Republicans basically saying toit

15:52

ROM needs time for you to go the reason

15:53

that's different is because Utah is a

15:54

deep red State Utah is a blood red State

15:57

Arizona is a purple state and for

15:59

Democrats to get rid of a purple senator

16:00

who is going to caucus with them in

16:02

favor of a far-left candidate like gyo

16:05

is really a fascinating turn of events

16:07

now if only Republicans had nominated

16:09

someone who for example had not run for

16:11

governor and lost and then claimed that

16:12

she won for the last year and a half

16:14

like that that might that might be nice

16:16

but they didn't do that they ran KY Lake

16:17

instead so it's KY Lake versus Ruben gyo

16:20

Clash of the Titans over in Arizona

16:22

demonstrating once more whoever seizes

16:24

the middle ground is going to win these

16:26

elections but both parties in some cases

16:29

seems to be running away from the Middle

16:30

Ground ironically in the presidential

16:31

race it's Joe Biden who's running away

16:33

from the middle ground and Donald Trump

16:34

who's reaching over and grabbing it

16:35

weirdly enough but in many of the state

16:38

races trumpism has been read as a super

16:40

right-wing magga Maga very far extremist

16:43

Right movement and so a lot of the

16:44

people being nominated are people who

16:46

are also abandoning the middle which is

16:47

not smart see the dirty secret that I've

16:50

been saying about Donald Trump is that

16:51

he is politically moderate and

16:53

rhetorically extreme and so many of the

16:55

people who have been running are

16:57

politically extreme and rhetorically

16:59

extreme which is not what Americans are

17:02

super into and by the way even

17:03

rhetorically extreme only works for

17:04

Donald Trump it really does not work for

17:05

anyone else Donald Trump is a one of one

17:08

in the same way that Barack Obama for

17:09

Democrats was a oneof one you cannot be

17:11

Trump there is no one who can out Trump

17:13

trump there's nobody who can even be in

17:14

that same category Trump is a stand-up

17:16

comedian who became president of the

17:17

United States because he is

17:19

extraordinarily entertaining he is

17:20

cameram magnetic he is always funny like

17:24

all those things are things that no

17:25

other politician can hold a candle to

17:28

because he's in a completely different

17:30

category he's an Entertainer who became

17:32

a politician not a politician trying to

17:34

be an Entertainer in any case Kristen

17:37

Cinema being ousted from the Democratic

17:38

party and then retiring means that

17:41

Democrats are also outing the people who

17:43

are supposedly reaching to the middle

17:44

now to be fair to the Democrats with her

17:47

out of the race a head-to-head match up

17:49

between gyo and Lake shows that gigo's

17:51

lead actually expands to Seven Points 46

17:53

39 with 15%

17:56

undecided so lake is going to have to

17:58

reach out to the middle if she wants to

17:59

win that race but for his part Bernie

18:01

Sanders is triumphalist about this

18:03

Bernie Sanders on the far left of the

18:04

party he's like yeah we are dragging the

18:05

entire party far the

18:07

left shortly before our rehearsal today

18:10

uh Arizona senator Kiron Cinema

18:12

announced that she will not be seeking

18:14

re-election this

18:16

fall obviously a lot of people are going

18:18

to miss her are you how much are you

18:21

going to miss her not at all crazy

18:24

person say says the crazed old goofball

18:27

socialist

18:28

but that's the Democratic party they've

18:30

decided they're going to cater to the

18:31

Bernie wing of the party rather than the

18:32

C and Cinema wing of the party Joe Biden

18:34

ran as CHR and Cinema and governed as

18:36

Bernie Sanders which is actually a

18:38

really bad strategy which means that he

18:40

has kind of one final opportunity to put

18:42

a new face on his presidency that of

18:44

course is going to happen this week with

18:45

his State of the Union Address as

18:47

political points out the State of the

18:48

Union may be one of the most vastly

18:50

overrated speeches in all of politics

18:51

but not this year the address Joe Biden

18:53

set to deliver on Thursday night will

18:55

come as the president faces intensifying

18:56

worries about his age and vitality and a

18:58

host of confounding International crises

19:00

and domestic challenges that backdrop

19:02

has dramatically heightened the stakes

19:03

for the White House with millions of

19:04

viewers tuning in not just to hear the

19:06

words he others but how he physically

19:07

delivers them and this of course is the

19:09

key the key is not to the State of the

19:11

Union whether Joe Biden says anything

19:13

memorable when's last time a president

19:15

said anything memorable during a State

19:16

of the Union Address they're all

19:17

terrible State of the Union addresses I

19:19

hate them I hate them every single year

19:20

I don't care who the president is or of

19:22

what party they are monarchic spectacle

19:24

in which the other branches of the

19:25

American government are expected to

19:27

treat the president as though is an

19:28

emperor the State of the Union was

19:30

supposed to be a letter issued from the

19:32

president to the legislature giving them

19:34

an update on things that were going on

19:35

because government was originally really

19:37

small and then it turned into this

19:39

pathetic Imperial spectacle in which the

19:41

president walks in and everybody cheers

19:43

for him and kiss the ring it's just

19:44

ridiculous it's a ridiculous stupid

19:45

thing I hate it every single year it's

19:47

stupid it's particularly stupid when you

19:49

have a president like Joe Biden who has

19:51

to be wheeled in on a gurnie in order to

19:53

make the statement but it will be

19:55

entertaining this year as I've been

19:56

saying for a long time since Joe Biden

19:57

took the presidency watching Joe Biden

20:00

speak is in fact quite exciting not in

20:03

the way he thinks it is but it's very

20:04

exciting it's exciting because it's like

20:05

watching The Wander Brothers right

20:07

you're watching somebody cross a tight

20:09

RPP in windy weather above a volcano and

20:12

so when Joe Biden speaks the big

20:14

question is not going to be how how well

20:16

does he do it's how badly he will do

20:19

there's no world in which he walks out

20:20

and he is

20:22

super charismatic and just absolutely

20:26

fascinating as rhetoric Ally shocking sh

20:30

somebody who you look at and you're like

20:31

wow that is an inspirational figure the

20:33

question for Joe Biden is whether he is

20:34

going to physically collapse on stage

20:37

obviously we'll be covering this over at

20:40

Daily wire backstage we're going to be

20:41

covering it live tomorrow night to make

20:43

sure that you tune in over at Daily

20:44

wire.com for that but the big question

20:46

is going to be whether Joe Biden

20:48

physically survives the speech which

20:50

means the expectations are quite low it

20:51

also means unfortunately for him that

20:54

again the more visibility people get of

20:55

joee Biden the less they like him we get

20:57

some more on this in just one second

20:59

first during this new year it's

21:00

important to slow down and think about

21:02

how we can lift up and help others

21:03

thankfully there is a company that

21:04

dedicates everything to helping the less

21:06

fortunate that is food for the poor for

21:09

over 40 years food for the poor has

21:10

21:11

21:18

21:25

22:05

Shapiro so Joe Biden yesterday was asked

22:08

how he thinks he's doing in the race and

22:10

he said I'm

22:14

winning president what's your message to

22:17

Democrats who are concerned about your

22:20

poll numers my poll numbers the last

22:22

five polls you guys don't report I'm

22:24

winning five five in a row

22:29

you guys only look at the New York Times

22:31

They great

22:35

paper I mean this must have been a scary

22:37

moment for him because lurking in the

22:38

background is his worst nightmare

22:40

stairs um but I will also point out at

22:43

this point that that is not true of the

22:45

last five polls that have been taken

22:46

he's losing in three of them the only

22:48

ones where he is winning he's inside the

22:49

margin of error those would be morning

22:50

consult and

22:52

tip in virtually every poll before that

22:55

he is losing so that's not true also

22:58

again one of the reasons he is losing is

23:00

because he is no longer with us so

23:01

yesterday he was doing a press

23:02

conference and he does this weird thing

23:05

where he says the stage directions out

23:06

loud where you if you've ever been to a

23:09

play there are stage directions and the

23:10

stage directions are like exit stage

23:12

left okay well Joe Biden reads that like

23:15

he'll sort of just read the stage

23:16

directions loud now it's time to take

23:18

some I better not take questions I okay

23:21

exit stage left Joe Biden out here we

23:26

Goot of questions

23:28

I better not start the questions I'm get

23:30

in

23:31

trouble what's your message for

23:34

super with whom you're the Pres you have

23:37

a message for voters thank so much thank

23:40

you

23:41

all he breathes like every breath could

23:45

be a death rattle my goodness he like

23:48

picks up the microphone just die better

23:49

not take questions or people are

23:56

gonna he needs like the Darth Vader suit

23:59

like this is this is this is bad guys

24:02

it's it's just not good okay and then um

24:05

he said yesterday that his staff would

24:06

drop him a note when it was dropped

24:08

Deadtime unfortunate language for the

24:10

barely sentient

24:12

president with that I'm going to turn

24:13

this over to L the Director of National

24:15

Economic Council but I'm supposed to

24:17

leave for a meeting with meeting with

24:20

the business round table on the

24:22

telephone but I'm going to hang around

24:23

and listen a little bit so with your

24:25

permission I'd like to stay if few and I

24:28

my my staff will tell tell me when the

24:30

drop dead hour occurs they'll pass me a

24:34

note what was that what in the world is

24:37

that I me I have a phone call on the on

24:40

the rotary in a moment and then I'm

24:43

gonna stick around just a little B if

24:47

that's okay with your pudding and that

24:51

that okay the thing he actually

24:52

campaigned on yesterday all that's just

24:54

him being ridiculously scile but the

24:56

thing he actually campaigned on I'm not

24:57

kidding

24:58

is shrinkflation so he believes that he

25:01

is going to be able to Pawn off his poor

25:04

economic record on inflation on the

25:07

greed of corporations that are putting

25:08

Less in the potato chip bag and charging

25:11

the same amount of money which is his

25:13

fault inflation is your fault you are

25:15

the president inflation began when you

25:17

entered office my friend but here he was

25:20

yesterday but he wasn't just talking

25:21

about shrink flation which again well

25:23

that that's going to be a hell of a

25:24

campaign slogan I'm J and I'm here to

25:27

fight shr

25:28

inflation I I swear he sounds like

25:31

castanza talking about shrinkage here

25:34

except he's citing the Cookie Monster

25:36

now the open question in this particular

25:38

clip is whether Joe Biden believes the

25:39

Cookie Monster to be a real thing like

25:42

whether the Cookie Monster is a sentient

25:43

being who walks around on the earth and

25:45

eats cookies here here was Joe Biden

25:47

quoting the Cookie Monster this is where

25:48

we are

25:50

folks but in fact some of the small

25:52

snack companies you won't uh and think

25:55

you won't even notice what they've doing

25:58

and when they charge you just as much

26:00

for the same size bag of potato chips

26:02

only has a hell of a lot fewer chips in

26:03

it I'll tell you what I tell you who did

26:06

notice the Cookie

26:08

Monster he pointed out cookies are his

26:10

cookies are getting smaller paying the

26:12

same price I was stunned when I found

26:15

out that would actually

26:17

happened I was St I talked to cookie the

26:20

other day and he said Mr President See

26:24

Is For Cookie I said oh I do like cookie

26:27

isn't I said Mr Cookie Monster can we be

26:29

best friends and then a little red

26:31

monster showed up and also wanted to be

26:33

friends and then they put me under and

26:37

uh anyway he's everything's going well

26:42

get ready for 72 minutes of that

26:43

tomorrow night W that's gonna be some

26:46

strong stuff but it's again it's not

26:48

just that he's s out it's that he's bad

26:49

at this he's bad he's bad at the

26:51

president thing the most obvious the

26:53

most obvious place where he's bad at the

26:54

presidenting right now is in the entire

26:57

28:02

dailywire so the United States has

28:04

continued to provide material support to

28:06

Israel but rhetorically they've been

28:07

undercutting Israel at every possible

28:09

turn in their battle against a genocidal

28:11

terror group and they've been declaring

28:12

that Israel should negotiate with this

28:14

genocidal terror group Who currently

28:16

holds six American citizens hostage by

28:18

the way among the 134 hostages we don't

28:20

know how many are alive and Kamas says

28:21

they don't know how many are alive which

28:23

is amazing I got to say Kamas they are

28:25

incredible accounting bodies but they

28:26

have no idea how many host are alive a

28:28

bomb hits in 5 seconds later it's 27,2

28:31

21 people have been killed all of them

28:33

children and all of them

28:35

poets and then they're like sure you

28:38

know it's been like three and a half

28:40

months since we took 134 we have no idea

28:42

how many of those people are alive weird

28:44

how your counting skills wildly degrade

28:46

the minute that we are talking about the

28:47

people who you are keeping in captivity

28:49

and raping routinely

28:51

presumably so the Biden Administration

28:54

has taken the rhetorical side of Hamas

28:55

by proclaiming a moral equivalence see

28:57

here's the the thing when you proclaim a

28:58

moral equivalence between a murderer and

29:01

the person that person is trying to

29:03

murder between the murderer and the

29:05

victim you are siding with the murder if

29:06

you say hey hold up here we have OJ and

29:09

here we have Nicole and sure sure Nicole

29:12

is out the floor bleeding and sure

29:15

Nicole has a right to self-defense if

29:16

she's still alive but let's be real

29:19

there have been mistakes made on all

29:20

sides you're taking the side of OJ at

29:23

that point and that is what the Biden

29:25

Administration has been doing

29:25

rhetorically which again is the worst

29:27

thing they can do because if you grant

29:30

an iota of rhetorical sympathy to

29:32

terrorists they are going to push you

29:34

they're going to realize that they now

29:36

have leverage over you and that's what

29:37

Hamas realizes the number of Lies this

29:40

Administration has either fallen for or

29:41

told themselves on behalf of Hamas is

29:43

insane at this point so for example

29:45

we've been hearing that Israel will not

29:47

ship in Aid that's not true Israel

29:49

allows in hundreds of Aid trucks every

29:51

single day but there's no one to

29:52

distribute the aid you want to know why

29:53

there's no one to distribute the aid in

29:54

the Gaza Strip perhaps because Kamas

29:56

hijacked the trucks here is tape of

29:58

Kamas riding around on the aid trucks

30:01

this is from

30:05

yesterday you see that these are a

30:07

trucks there are two members of Kamas on

30:09

top of each one of these a trucks these

30:10

are all civilians who are standing there

30:12

being like where's my damned food and

30:14

the answer is Hamas is stealing all of

30:16

it and then the bid Administration is

30:18

like what if we send them more it say

30:19

the Israelis are being so mean about it

30:22

Hamas is stealing the aid and they're

30:23

killing people who are trying to get the

30:25

aid it's totally insane but then Israel

30:28

gets blamed rhetorically Israel needs to

30:30

do more says the Biden Administration

30:31

meanwhile Jo Biden yesterday says we

30:33

need a ceasefire because of Ramadan okay

30:36

I'm sorry this has to stop what

30:38

what it's it's so ridiculous this is

30:39

such ridiculous

30:41

nonsense Ramadan is very holy holiday to

30:43

the terrorists who are willing to

30:45

literally violate every single other

30:47

human being's religious Scruples on

30:49

Ramadan everybody has to go real easy

30:51

cuz people are fasting between sunrise

30:53

and sunset got to go real easy because

30:56

it turns out terrorists they they love

30:57

them their Ramadan in Kamas land over

31:00

here we got to be so easy on them

31:01

because obviously these are people we

31:03

have to respect their religious scrup

31:05

that dictate that they should murder

31:06

pretty much everybody who is not a

31:08

religious Muslim makes perfect sense

31:10

because obviously they have demonstrated

31:12

enormous enormous credibility when it

31:14

comes to respect for other religions

31:16

like for example when the Palestinian

31:19

Arabs were in charge of the holy sites

31:22

Jews can't get in in fact if Jews tried

31:25

to worship at their own holy sights when

31:27

the state of Israel did not exist for

31:29

example the Western Wall giant riots

31:30

would start like in 1929 and hundreds of

31:32

Jews would be murdered so obviously

31:34

listen if there is one thing that the

31:36

radical Muslim world is known for it's

31:38

respect for other religions which is why

31:39

they literally blow up churches and

31:40

build mosques on top of them or go

31:42

directly on top of the Temple Mount and

31:44

put the Dome of the Rock directly on top

31:45

of the Jewish holy of holies from the

31:47

temple it's also why they go to Hindu

31:49

sites in India blow up the Hindu sites

31:51

and put a Masque on top because if there

31:52

again when we are talking about

31:53

colonialist religions folks there is one

31:56

that wins okay the most colonialist

31:58

religion of all time is

32:01

Islam but that does not there can be

32:04

moderate Muslims they're just not in

32:05

Kamas land there are many moderate

32:07

Muslim I know some moderate Muslims you

32:09

know people who don't actually believe

32:11

in the colonial Legacy of sharia law but

32:14

to pretend that Ramadan is is is the

32:17

deciding factor in whether Israel should

32:19

be able to go and try to take back its

32:21

hostages and kill terrorists is totally

32:22

insane again demonstrating once again

32:25

radical Muslim sympathy for other Rel

32:27

the last two major surprise Wars that

32:29

launched Israel were launched on

32:31

respectively the Y Yom kipor the holiest

32:33

day in the Jewish calendar in 1973 and

32:35

Sim T which was October 7th Sim T is the

32:38

happiest day in the Jewish calendar it

32:40

also happened to be a Shabbat it's like

32:41

a double holiday for Jews perfect time

32:43

for Kamas to respect the religion and

32:46

Palestinian civilians involved to

32:47

respect the religion of the Jews by

32:49

killing 12200 of them and but but Joe

32:51

bid's like ramadan's coming we got to be

32:53

careful about ra honestly this this it's

32:56

so stupid it's so stupid you're not

32:58

winning hearts and Minds by trying to

33:00

get a ceasefire on behalf of terrorist

33:02

groups for

33:02

Ramadan who's who's whispering in Joe's

33:05

ear who believes this or does Joe just

33:07

believe this in his adult

33:11

brain well I there's got to be a

33:13

ceasefire because

33:15

Ramadan if we get into a circumstance

33:18

where this continues through Ramadan

33:21

Israel and Jerusalem again it could be

33:23

very very dangerous so we're looking

33:26

we're trying hard for

33:28

fire Oh you mean you oh you mean that

33:30

there will be you know act acts of

33:32

rioting on the Temple Mount like there

33:33

is every single year and then you'll

33:34

blame the Jews for the acts of rioting

33:36

by the Muslims on the Temple Mount I've

33:37

been up there by the way and the Muslim

33:39

world then suggests that I'm quote

33:40

unquote trespassing or invading the

33:43

Temple Mount by which they mean I walk

33:44

around

33:45

it that's what they mean you're

33:47

literally barred from praying on the

33:48

Temple Mount by the Islamic walk so long

33:50

as you're a Jew or a Christian by the

33:52

way if you're a Muslim you can be up

33:53

there playing soccer and eating

33:54

McDonald's which is literally what

33:55

happens on the temple Mountain there's

33:56

literally a school in the corner of the

33:58

Temple Mount this very holy site to

33:59

Muslims where kids are playing soccer

34:01

and flying kits so yeah in any case this

34:05

is stupid but what what exactly does it

34:07

mean so the Biden Administration they're

34:09

pursuing a ceasefire and Kamas is

34:11

rejecting every ceasefire Hamas

34:14

literally rejected the last ceasefire

34:17

offer that ceasefire offer was a an

34:19

offer for a six-week ceasefire in return

34:21

for leasing the remaining female

34:23

hostages and Kamas rejected it outright

34:28

according to the New York Times

34:29

President Biden said Tuesday talks on a

34:31

possible sixe ceasefire in Gaza are in

34:32

the hands of Kamas right now he spoke

34:34

just before a Kamas leader in Lebanon

34:36

appeared to reject a proposed deal the

34:37

US is backing insisting Israeli hostages

34:39

would be released only after a ceasefire

34:41

was in place and Israeli forces have

34:44

withdrawn so Hamas knows they are in

34:46

control because Biden wants the

34:47

ceasefire more than he wants Israel to

34:49

destroy Hamas that is just the bottom

34:52

line here and so because of that Biden

34:55

is now shifting his line to mirror Hamas

34:57

according to I24 news while Holding Out

35:00

for Hamas to accept a ceasefire and

35:02

hostage released proposal us and Arab

35:03

negotiators floated a potential short

35:05

pause to hostilities while the larger

35:07

deal gets ironed out so what would that

35:09

mean that would mean calling for a

35:11

ceasefire without any hostages being

35:13

released which is called

35:15

losing you think the Israel are going to

35:17

go for that it's the most insane

35:19

stupidity ever it's ridiculously insane

35:22

and the media and the political class

35:24

they're like oh well this is because Joe

35:26

Biden doesn't get with BB this has

35:27

nothing to do with Joe Biden and BB

35:29

Benny Gans just visited Washington DC he

35:31

got the same exact treatment from KLA

35:33

Harris and Joe Biden one of the great

35:35

lies of foreign policy is that foreign

35:37

policy is constructed based on

35:39

individual likes and dislikes of the

35:40

leaders of countries it is not it is

35:42

based on the individual interests of

35:44

countries it doesn't matter very much

35:46

whether you like or dislike Vladimir

35:47

Putin or whether you get along with him

35:50

or not what matters is whether his

35:51

interests are actually in coincidence

35:54

with your own and the same thing holds

35:56

trth is leaders or with Palestinian

35:58

leaders we ought to be absolutely clear

36:01

and gimlet eyed about the question of

36:04

American National interest and the

36:06

national interest of other countries and

36:08

this bizarre notion that America has

36:10

some sort of disagreement with BB nyaho

36:13

personally and therefore they have to

36:14

make some sort of concessions to Kamas

36:16

it's absolute stupidity Meanwhile by the

36:19

way Iran is activating all of its

36:21

proxies they know they've got a they

36:23

have a they have a fish on the line and

36:24

that fish is the Biden Administration so

36:26

bah has been heating up because they

36:27

know that Joe Biden wants one thing

36:28

above all and that is a ceasefire in the

36:30

region and so they are ratcheting up

36:32

their military action in the attempt to

36:34

gain concessions via the United States

36:36

from the Israelis so yesterday for

36:38

example kah launched 50 Rockets into the

36:40

North of Israel now any self-respecting

36:42

country receiving 50 Rockets across its

36:45

border would then go and W the people on

36:48

the other side of the Border can you

36:49

imagine if the Mexican Government not

36:51

the drug cartels the government because

36:53

kah basically runs the government in

36:54

Lebanon decided that they were going to

36:56

launch

36:57

50 Rockets into San Diego Mexico City

37:00

would not exist the next morning at the

37:03

very least you'd have Marines sipping

37:04

tea from the capital but here is what

37:07

the video looks like on the northern

37:08

border of Israel where again 30,000

37:10

Israelis have abandoned their homes in

37:11

the north because of kisah threats and

37:14

there's widespread expectation in Israel

37:16

that within the next two to three months

37:17

there will be a large scale war in the

37:19

North with kisah which diing 200,000

37:21

rockets at Israel here's what it looks

37:23

like when a terrorist group fires

37:25

Rockets into another sovereign

37:32

country this isah just launching Rockets

37:34

over the border of

37:37

Israel and it's only thanks to the Iron

37:39

Dome you can see the Iron Dome which is

37:40

um being shot up into the sky to knock

37:42

down some of these Rockets if we were

37:44

not for Iron Dome these would all be

37:45

falling and killing

37:47

people the Biden administration of

37:48

course is seeking ceasefires ceasefire

37:50

seire ceasefire and because they are in

37:53

Hawk to their radical base this all goes

37:56

back to that Central contention the

37:57

Democratic party has moved so far to the

37:59

left that they can't see straight

38:00

anymore at all we'll get to that in just

38:02

one moment first Russia has been in the

38:04

headlines for weeks due to the actions

38:06

of Vladimir Putin obviously to

38:08

comprehend Vladimir Putin's motivations

38:09

we have to examine the historical

38:11

context that shaped his behaviors in the

38:13

new season of what we saw in Empire of

38:14

Terror host Bill Whittle unmasks

38:16

communism by taking a close look at the

38:18

entries and other primary sources this

38:24

Tale of Terror offers a compelling

38:25

presentation on the Horrors that plagued

38:27

the Soviet Union and the viciousness of

38:28

its leaders modern day Russia has been

38:31

centuries in the making this series will

39:12

that out on Saturday Okay meanwhile

39:14

speaking of the democratic party

39:16

captured by radicals again you can see

39:19

the radical base of the democratic party

39:21

is pushing Joe Biden to the left and

39:22

again it is most obvious on a couple of

39:24

issues immigration is one the Democratic

39:25

party could easily cut a deal with

39:27

Republicans or just enact executive

39:30

orders in order to shut down the border

39:32

and they're not doing it because they're

39:33

in Haw to the radical base you can also

39:34

see it most clearly with regard to

39:36

Israel and Hamas this is the most

39:37

morally obvious conflict in modern

39:39

history it is between a democratic state

39:41

that was literally just attacked with

39:42

the worst terror attack since 9/11 in

39:44

the west and a genocidal terror group

39:47

that is holding hostages right now and

39:49

suddenly the left is like well I don't

39:51

know about that it's pretty it's pretty

39:52

convoluted it's pretty you know I don't

39:54

know what I would do this is why you get

39:55

morons like Nick Kristoff at the New

39:57

York Times a Moral Moral dunce

40:00

suggesting quote I get this question

40:01

regularly and I acknowledge that Israel

40:03

faced a difficult challenge it was hard

40:04

to Target Hamas without risking

40:05

civilians my answer is what I would not

40:07

do is kill 31,000 people in Vancouver

40:09

including 12,500 children and starve the

40:11

entire population the question was

40:13

imagine terrorist Rockets fired from

40:15

Vancouver into Portland Oregon what

40:16

would you do okay but you didn't answer

40:18

the question so your question is I

40:20

wouldn't do what the Israelis would do

40:21

but I will sit here and I'll pontificate

40:22

like a giant jackass this is the left

40:25

this is the left right now

40:26

the left has decided that basically if

40:29

you are evil enough this means you earn

40:31

a free ticket to left wingland it's

40:33

great if you're evil enough this

40:35

suggests that you're victimized see in

40:37

the victim victim victimizer narrative

40:39

the oppressor oppressed narrative

40:42

whoever is the worst is considered the

40:44

oppressed because remember you have to

40:46

link that up with the leftwing idea that

40:48

everyone who acts badly is doing so

40:50

because of childhood trauma and people

40:51

being mean to them that people are

40:53

naturally good and naturally kind and

40:55

naturally wonderful and therefore if

40:57

somebody blows up in a cafe and they

40:59

take a bunch of kids with them then

41:01

that's probably because they had a

41:02

really rough childhood and so they are

41:04

the victim not the victimizer they are

41:06

the victim the worse you act the more

41:08

evil you are the more you have been

41:09

victimized by outside forces and thus

41:13

your actual victims are the victimizers

41:15

complete reversal victim and victimizer

41:17

the most obvious example of this is

41:18

Judith Butler so Judith Butler is one of

41:21

the most damaging academics of the last

41:22

60 years she is famously

41:26

a founder of queer Theory she's a person

41:30

who became famous by suggesting that all

41:32

of gender is a social construct there's

41:34

no linkage whatsoever between your

41:35

biology and your behavior it's all a

41:37

social

41:38

construct she says that the body itself

41:40

is a social construct that it's defined

41:43

as all about power she says that gender

41:46

itself is a verb that constructs it's a

41:48

performance everything is performative

41:50

and gender is a quote struggle to rework

41:52

the Norms by which bodies are

41:53

experienced so for most of her life she

41:55

considered herself a woman now she says

41:57

thanks to gender non-binary nonsense

41:58

that she helps create she is a they them

42:00

but she's really just a crazy lady and

42:02

this crazy lady who is respected in

42:03

academic circles because she writes

42:05

absolute turgid gobble dek that makes no

42:08

sense to anyone with a sentient

42:10

prefrontal cortex this adult is not just

42:13

a when it comes to gender Theory

42:15

and her bizarre Notions that gender is

42:17

entirely constructed and made up and all

42:19

the rest of this garbage but that links

42:21

up with her belief that terrorists are

42:23

not in fact terrorists so she was

42:25

talking about the situation between

42:26

Israel and Hamas the other day and she

42:29

decided to lay down a theory her theory

42:31

is that October 7th which involved the

42:34

mass rape of women the murder of men

42:36

women the slaughter of children the

42:38

beheading of foreigners and Jews the

42:41

kidnapping of women and repeated rape of

42:43

those women that all of that was just an

42:45

act of resistance because after all you

42:47

have to understand what we are watching

42:49

right now is the Coalition of the pseudo

42:50

oppressed who have decided that any

42:52

system in which they are unsuccessful

42:54

they are the victims and therefore they

42:55

can do whatever they want when you link

42:57

up that oppressor oppressed narrative in

42:59

which everybody who is a failure has

43:01

been oppressed in some way everybody who

43:03

is evil has been oppressed in some way

43:05

you link that up with the friends fown

43:07

notion that resistance can come in any

43:11

form and that's how you end up with

43:12

Judith Butler one of the most evil human

43:15

beings of the last 60 years here she was

43:17

yesterday justifying

43:19

Kamas we can have different views about

43:24

Hamas as a political party we can have

43:27

different views

43:29

about

43:32

um uh AR armed

43:35

resistance but I think it is um more

43:40

honest and historically correct to say

43:44

that the uprising of October 7th was an

43:47

act of armed

43:48

resistance it is not a terrorist attack

43:51

and it's not an anti-semitic attack it

43:54

was an attack against

43:56

Israelis and you know I did not like

44:00

that attack I I have gone public with

44:02

this I have gotten in trouble for saying

44:05

it didn't like it it was for me

44:07

anguishing it it was anguishing it was

44:10

terrible however be very foolish however

44:15

if I then decided that the only violence

44:18

in the scene was the violence done to

44:21

Israeli people the violence done to

44:23

Palestinians has been happening for

44:26

decades this was an uprising that comes

44:29

out it comes from a state of uh

44:33

subjugation and against a violent State

44:38

apparatus oh as opposed to Kamas which

44:41

is not a violent State apparatus or Iran

44:43

which is not a violent State apparatus

44:44

it's the Democratic state of Israel

44:45

which has 20% Arab

44:48

citizenry that's the the violent State

44:51

apparatus according to this

44:53

absolutely ridiculous piece of Filth I

44:56

mean she's truly one of the worst people

44:57

on the planet truly an awful human being

44:59

by the way she she she says that she's

45:01

associated with Jewish voices for peace

45:02

the best thing about Jewish voices for

45:04

peace is the only actual word in that

45:06

title that is true is

45:08

of they're not Jewish they're not for

45:11

peace and they are not really voices for

45:13

peace or Jewish voices so none of that

45:15

is true so they're of when when she

45:19

suggests again that narrative is the

45:20

most dangerous narrative and it's a

45:21

narrative that threatens the entire West

45:23

this is why when people say why should I

45:24

care about what's going on far away I

45:26

get it I do I understand why should you

45:28

care what's going but it's not going on

45:30

far away it's going on in your Shores

45:32

Judith Butler is a famous American

45:34

academic her work is taught all over the

45:37

United States in gender Theory classes

45:39

to your children her entire philosophy

45:42

has been mainlined into the educational

45:44

system not just with regard to gender

45:45

but with regard to values as a whole the

45:47

postmodernist notion that all morality

45:50

is effectively constructed but there's a

45:52

victim and a victimizer and the

45:53

victimizer is always the successful

45:55

person and the victim is always the

45:57

failure and that's because the system

45:58

itself is bad that's how you end up with

46:01

gender queer non-conforming Judith

46:03

Butler on the same side as Kamas who

46:05

would gladly chop off her head in a

46:07

moment where she'd be placed into the

46:09

Gaza

46:10

Strip now they probably wouldn't chop

46:12

off her head because they know that

46:13

she's a wonderful useful idiot for them

46:15

if they knew who she was they would prop

46:16

her up because of course she's very

46:17

useful to them but if they had no idea

46:19

and she just wandered into the Gaza

46:20

Strip should would look like any other

46:23

Jewish lesbian non- formist left Wier

46:27

and they would chop off her head right

46:29

away okay so but but you have to

46:32

understand why the alliance exists the

46:33

alliance exists and it is a danger to

46:34

the West it is not just a danger to

46:36

Israel it is a danger to the West there

46:38

are millions of people who believe the

46:41

softer form of what she is saying and

46:43

the left has patted this on the head the

46:45

left has em bibed from this well this is

46:47

the difference between the old school

46:48

Democratic liberals and the far-left

46:50

Bernie Sanders Wing that is taking over

46:52

the Democratic party and it's all part

46:55

of a piece it is all part of a broader

46:57

wholecloth rewriting of morality see

46:59

typically when you speak of

47:00

judeo-christian morality you mean that

47:02

in any given situation we can determine

47:03

whether somebody is a victim or a

47:05

victimizer by whether they are in fact a

47:07

victim or a victimizer have they done

47:09

something wrong have they done something

47:11

that violates morality have they done

47:13

something that violates moral Scruples

47:14

and rules but that but identity is

47:18

victim or victimizer according to the

47:20

left and the best way to tell whether

47:22

somebody's a victim or a victimizer is

47:24

whether they stand on behalf of the

47:25

system and success within the system

47:26

means you're a purveyor of the system

47:28

the system is bad the fundamental

47:30

premise of all left-wing coalitional

47:32

thought is that the system is bad and

47:34

must be torn down and so Hamas can end

47:36

up on the same side as queers for

47:37

Palestine even if they would kill each

47:39

other given the first available

47:41

opportunity it's the Coalition that

47:42

matters Uber Alice it's the thing that

47:44

matters more than anything else the

47:45

system has to be torn down and so when

47:48

we talk about all these issues that seem

47:50

utterly disconnected like transing of

47:52

the kids and support for Kamas you have

47:54

to wonder how do they end up on the same

47:55

side the answer is both want to tear

47:57

down judeo-christian moral values that

47:59

is what they are about and so when you

48:01

see a symptom of that crop up in the

48:03

moral ambivalence about Israel Kamas

48:06

that is a symptom of a much broader

48:08

malady and treating that symptom in

48:10

isolation as though it has nothing to do

48:12

with the underlying malady means that

48:14

the the malady is going to get worse

48:15

it's going to

48:16

metastasize it's like have a symptom of

48:18

cancer you just treat the symptom but

48:20

you pay no attention to the cancer

48:21

you're going to die of the cancer that's

48:22

the West right

48:24

now the bizarre leftwing support of

48:26

Hamas is an amazing indicator of just

48:30

How Deeply rooted the cancer of radical

48:32

left thought has gone and it really has

48:34

gone quite deep all righty guys the rest

48:37

of the show continues right now we'll be
