I'm sick of my flag being represented by
white nationalist trash on a goddamn
Beach yourselves imagine being so
triggered by the Stars and Stripes if uh
it ain't your flag though mate if seeing
the flag makes you so unhinged perhaps
consider moving to a different country
I'm willing to crowdfund a one-way
ticket to Iran for you something to
think about uh we've seen the ladies of

losing it on college campuses Across
America apparently these kids are
intelligent and ethical Crusaders who
want to change the world which students
are pushing against which I'm thrilled
to see cuz I like when students get mad
and say we want to change
made but how much do these protesters
actually know about the Israeli
Palestinian conflict let's find out have
you guys chanted from The River To The
Sea yes okay which river which
sea the Sea of so you don't you don't
know the answer was the Mediterranean
and the Jordan what does Hamas say their
number one goal is according to their
Charter they just wanted to free
Palestine to murder all Jews around the
world how many years did Israel occupy
Gaza late 1800s the entire time since 48
it's actually under Egyptian control for
the first 20 or so years and then Israel
actually left Gaza in 2006 I'm sure wait
they left wait what they left yeah they
did surely they can't all be this
clueless can they let's see if they can
answer Zack Sage's next question what is
a Zionist what is the definition of
Zionist does that mean you like hate
Palestinians right Jewish people who
think that Judaism is the highest
raceism actually just means that you
think Jews are entitled to having their
own Homeland to protect themselves from
another Holocaust you don't even have to
be Jewish that makes you a Zionist okay
what does antia revolution mean I don't
know what that means but you've chanted
it yeah it's like a global call to
murder Jews wow wow did you know you
said that no would you say it again
probably not how much have our foreign
adversaries donated to American
universities in the last decade no idea
I couldn't give you a number on that the
answer was over 6 billion how many gazin
refugees have the Arab neighboring
countries LED in in the last few months
35,000 the answer was zero look you ask
an education major about about students
don't seem to know what they stand for
so wouldn't it be great if these
expensive colleges actually taught them
something it would be great of colleges
charging 50 60 $70,000 tuition would
occasionally teach their students
something other than how to hate the
West maybe then we wouldn't have the
chickens for KFC phenomenon as
exemplified by this next activist can
you explain what you're wearing uh yeah
this is
like this yeah this is a Kia this is uh
yeah this is
uh what's the meaning behind what it is
that you're wearing yeah so this is a
KFA it's like kind of worn in a lot of
like kind of like more Middle Eastern
cultures and this one in particular is
like has a lot of significance in like
the sort of Palestinian resistance words
words words wearing this to like show
solidarity with like Palestine and Gaza
right now what exactly are the
Palestinians resisting Israel has been
essentially colonizing Palestine for the
past 70 years or so and they're
resisting colonialism they are resisting
imperialism and they have been resisting
a genocide that has been waged against
them that has only intensified over the
past 7 months and they've been resisting
this genocide for the past 70 years
would you describe yourself as a
progressive yeah do you think that Gaza
and the Palestinians share values it
doesn't really matter what they share my
values because at the end of the day
they are being genocided are you aware
that in Gaza they behead or throw LGBT
people off of buildings no they do not
interview's done thank you all right
just ask the question no they don't
interviews done oh dear these people are
almost Beyond parody but some Comics
find a way here is Matan Petes mocking
these nink
poops people are very sensitive like I
don't know how can you judge on the
Israeli Palestinian conflict if you
don't know your own gender you know what
I mean
like know thank
you like why people so upset he used to
be Palestine now it's Israel you trans
you should know that you know what I
[Applause]
mean just remove the you know what I
mean
now let's look at some lefties losing it
over the commencement speech given by
NFL player Harrison buter you see the
chief's kicker who is Catholic gave a
commencement speech at a Catholic School
saying Catholic things and that saw this
podcaster absolutely locid the kicker
for the Kansas City Chiefs who has got
to be the most sexist white supremacist
I have ever seen in my
life she just defamed him there wildly
you should probably Sue but they weren't
done yet why don't someone think of
Taylor Swift hate him it's unbelievable
that at a time this last football cycle
where all of these women are attracted
to the NFL because of Taylor Swift and
here's this incredibly successful woman
Taylor Swift that has this amazing
amazing work ethic and then I forget
that this type of person exists
everywhere and this is this is
evangelical Christianity what he said is
so
disrespectful to such a large portion of
women and it's so
dismissive I I just I hope that he is
canceled to hell and back and I feel so
sorry that his wife has to sleep with
him oh good lord that got real weird
real quick and here is another Lefty
lady losing it over Harrison buter she's
a former Chief's cheerleader who seems
to think she speaks for all
womenkind you know we have several
things in common first and foremost
until a few months
ago we were both employed by the Kansas
City Chiefs I cheered you on for 6 years
straight and with that I would
assume we went to the same PR training
biggas takeaway
is you now represent a billion dooll
organization you are no longer just
stares and
bucker you are now Harrison bucker who
plays for the Kansas City Chiefs and
anything you say or do that doesn't
align with that
brand scissoring just like the lesbians
you hated in that video will be grounds
for
termination oh gosh she's a little bit
annoying isn't she and these ladies are
going to lose it even more when they
find find out that Harrison bucker
jerseys have sold out in all the women's
sizes I guess there is only one thing
left to do ladies go into the woods and
scream it all
[Applause]
out what do you feel
[Applause]
[Applause]
it what did they try to
take the ladies of the view are the gift
that keeps on giving so much lefties
losing at content each and every week
and today it's the ironically named Joy
bayar who stars with this of derangement
you keep wearing that red hat that says
make America great again that tells
people that you go along with this so
you might as well just put a swas stier
on the hat don't do that not cuz we see
it anyway yep she's Bonkers and devoid
of Joy can you imagine becoming so
unhinged by a making America great again
cap and we have more joy for you not
real Joy the bitter Lefty losing it type
here admitting that she's not honest
with her audience about Joe Biden's
failings because she doesn't want to
help Donald Trump so but I'm I'm nervous
about saying anything against Biden
because I feel you know not that I have
so much power and and you have some more
than we than I do obviously but I don't
know about that are you afraid that you
might you know in influence people who
are on the fence I I think you lose all
credibility I do mean my bond with my
audience is always been I don't pull a
punch my bond with my orience is you're
not going to like everything I say but
you know I'm saying what I really think
is true oh that was some subtle shade
thrown by Ma and that wasn't the worst
of it uh here Joy claims that Biden's
brain is still good he's
great we are not young but we don't
present as old Biden does I saw him
yesterday making that speech I mean I'm
sorry he's kadaver likee but his brain
is good he's still great oh that is just
unintentionally hilarious and now two
more unintentional ity from the male
version of Joy Bahar MSNBC host Lawrence
odonnell he had this analysis on Michael
Cohen's disastrous testimony where the
serial perjurer admitted to being a
thief who stole
$330,000 from the Trump organization
that yes he stole
$30,000 later when Cohen was asked about
