Big Friday, you guys. The Supreme Court nixed

0:02

affirmative action programs for admission

0:04

decisions at Harvard University and the University

0:06

of North Carolina in a major ruling yesterday.

0:09

And quite surprisingly, essentially what they're saying is we

0:12

are no longer allowed to systematically

0:14

discriminate against Asian Americans for

0:16

doing everything right. And

0:18

yet people are freaking out. Black

0:21

Americans are freaking out. White savior

0:23

Americans who have that complex are freaking out. They're

0:26

going, no, black Americans can't do it

0:28

by themselves. They need help. They're too stupid.

0:31

Well, I have got the best reactions to

0:33

this next thing. We're going to go over them. Plus later on

0:35

in the show, New York Post is reporting a major

0:37

update to the Steven Crowder case. He asked

0:39

for everything to be publicized. Well, at

0:41

least it's what he asked for publicly. Actually, it turns

0:44

out he asked for the exact opposite thing

0:46

privately because he lies and lies and lies

0:48

and people just won't accept the fact that he's kind of a

0:50

sociopathic liar. I'm gonna cover it. All

0:52

that and more today coming up on Candace Owens.

0:56

One of the greatest

0:58

Thomas Sowell quotes ever.

1:02

He wrote, quote, when people get used to preferential

1:05

treatment,

1:06

equal treatment seems like discrimination. There is just

1:08

no better way to categorize the

1:11

responses that we saw yesterday to the fact that the

1:13

Supreme

1:13

Court essentially decided that college admissions must

1:15

partake in the practice of

1:18

the Supreme Court. And that's why he said

1:20

that the Supreme Court is not going to be the

1:22

only one who is going to be a person who will

1:24

partake in the practice of equal treatment.

1:27

So what's been going on in the background? What is affirmative

1:30

action? We all know what it is. It says that if

1:32

I, as a black student, am underperforming

1:35

against an Asian student or a white American student,

1:37

then a university should look at the fact that I'm black

1:40

and say, well, of course, she's

1:42

black. So that's why she can't do as well as her Asian

1:44

and white American peers. And they should let me in

1:46

school ahead of these individuals. And

1:49

that's always been very shocking to me because what's

1:51

really happening, people will lie to you and tell you that

1:53

this is passed down from slavery. Black Americans

1:55

can't perform well in academics because of slavery. That's

1:58

a lie because black Americans are

2:00

performing worse and worse as the

2:02

decades go on. Black American literacy rates

2:04

are plummeting. Mathematical rates are plummeting over

2:06

time. America is not becoming a more racist

2:09

society. We are just increasingly not

2:11

being told that we have to meet academic

2:13

criteria by, well, I call

2:15

this white saviors. But what's

2:17

really at root here, people will try to

2:19

make this issue black versus white. What's

2:22

really happening at Harvard is open and flagrant

2:25

discrimination against Asian

2:27

Americans. Yes. Oh,

2:29

this is going to help white affluent

2:32

Americans get into Harvard. Nope.

2:34

The people that are achieving the most academically are

2:37

Asian Americans, and they aren't coming from an affluent

2:39

community. They just have better morals and principles

2:41

in their household. They are focused on academics.

2:44

Anecdotally, I will never forget, I want to play

2:46

with a girl. When I was in third

2:49

grade, her name was Kathy. She was one of my best friends. She

2:51

was Japanese. I remember going to her house. Now, we

2:53

were in the same station in life. This was when I

2:55

moved into my grandparents' house. It was, I

2:57

would say, a very middle-class existence.

3:00

And after school, unlike me, I used to be able

3:02

to just ride my bike, go to the park, do whatever I

3:04

wanted.

3:05

Kathy's dad was terrifying.

3:08

He immediately wanted her to take her shoes off to get into the house

3:10

and to sit down and to show him

3:13

everything that she had to work on. Kathy

3:15

was not allowed to play or do anything until all of her

3:17

homework was done. I

3:18

didn't like going to Kathy's house. That wasn't fun.

3:21

It

3:21

wasn't what I was doing at my home. My parents didn't

3:24

place the same implications upon

3:26

me. I didn't have to do my homework first or even show them

3:28

what my homework was. So

3:29

what was stopping my parents from doing that?

3:32

Nothing.

3:33

Just cultural differences. Asian

3:36

Americans, we know, strive harder academically.

3:39

That's always been the stereotype when we talk

3:41

about Asian Americans who are watching a movie. The

3:43

idea is the nerdy Asian American with their calculator,

3:46

right? Stereotypes don't come from nowhere.

3:49

Other stereotypes doesn't come from nowhere. The fact that black

3:51

Americans place an emphasis on sports.

3:54

Yes, we do. That is the truth. So

3:56

it's not that shocking when you look up in the world

3:59

and you examine in the statistics of the amount

4:01

of black Americans that are thriving

4:04

and dominating in the NBA and the NFL

4:07

and the amount of Asian Americans

4:09

that should be thriving at Harvard

4:12

and MIT but are being routinely discriminated

4:14

against on the basis of their ethnicity.

4:16

Let's just go over those NBA stats.

4:19

According to data in 2021, 73.2% of NBA players are black American.

4:27

Oh my God, how could that be? There's

4:30

not enough racial difference.

4:32

We need to make sure that we aspire to racial

4:34

quotas. It'd be great. What

4:36

we should do instead is we should decline LeBron James

4:38

at the Lakers and instead accept Ed Sheeran. We

4:41

just don't, you know, we don't have enough redheads. We don't have

4:43

enough people from the UK that

4:45

are being represented in the NBA. That

4:48

would be pointedly ridiculous. We would all say

4:50

that would be foolish. I wouldn't want to watch

4:52

the NBA. I appreciate

4:54

the fact that the best basketball players

4:56

are dominating the sport.

4:57

And as I said, we know why that is. As

5:00

somebody who grew up in a black household and has a black

5:02

family, every black mother wants

5:04

to believe that their child is the next Michael

5:06

Jordan. That is the truth, right? And it's the reason

5:09

why we envy those individuals.

5:11

It is the reason why politicians

5:14

are falling over themselves to get an endorsement

5:16

from somebody like LeBron James. You want

5:18

LeBron James to tweet something about Black Lives

5:20

Matter because that means that Black Lives Matter is going

5:22

to raise $90 million and nobody's

5:25

going to care about where the money's going. They're going

5:27

to call Candace LeCun

5:27

because she doesn't have

5:30

the street status that LeBron James

5:33

does because he plays basketball. That's considered

5:35

cool. That is where we are focused

5:38

on culture. That's the truth.

5:40

On the other side of that, you have individuals who

5:42

say, okay, well, maybe my child is not going

5:44

to play sports when they're at university.

5:47

Maybe they're going to just enjoy the math club, the

5:49

mathletes. And I want them

5:51

to strive to become a doctor.

5:53

Now I think I've been pretty open about the fact that the

5:56

first three guys I dated in life were all

5:58

Asian and it just happens to be.

5:59

that they were very interested

6:02

in science and very interested in math and they

6:04

defied no stereotypes. One of them

6:06

is in fact a doctor today. So let's

6:09

take a look at this document because I

6:11

find it to be stunning that any individual

6:13

could defend this. If you had switched around the races

6:16

of this, if this was revealed and

6:18

you had swapped Asian American for black

6:20

American on this chart that I'm about to show you, there

6:23

wouldn't just be protests in the streets. They would burn

6:25

Harvard to the ground for

6:27

just an unbelievable example

6:30

of discrimination against black Americans. But nope, nobody

6:32

cares because it's Asian Americans. So this

6:35

chart is separated and this is how

6:37

Harvard goes through their admission process.

6:40

They look at the data of their applicants

6:42

and they sort them into academic

6:45

deciles according to their performance,

6:47

right? So you see that's rated 1 through 10. 10 being

6:49

the best on the left-hand side.

6:51

So if you are in the best academic

6:54

category, you are just absolutely

6:56

amazing and you are sorted and you are

6:58

a white American versus

7:00

an Asian American and versus an African American.

7:02

That's what we are taking a look at, right? They

7:04

accept of the highest academic

7:07

decile, 10, 56.1% of African Americans.

7:08

You have a 56.1% chance

7:14

as a black person in American society of

7:17

getting into Harvard if you are

7:19

in this academic rank.

7:22

But then it drops all the way. So this is your exact

7:25

peer. You did everything the same. If you're a white American,

7:28

that plummets all the way to 15.3%.

7:31

You worked just as hard as that black American.

7:33

You don't know anything about their background that could be different. So

7:36

what you're basically saying is Michelle

7:38

Obama's children who are going to Harvard, or at least

7:40

one of them is going to Harvard,

7:42

would be in this represented by this 56.1% assuming

7:44

they're at the top, right? Because they're black. And

7:47

if you're white, you're at 15%.

7:49

Okay?

7:49

Do you think that the Obama kids come up in a rough

7:52

way or just assuming because they're black,

7:54

they should be allowed to go to Harvard because that's what Harvard

7:56

is assuming? Then if you

7:58

think it doesn't get worse, it does.

7:59

for Asian Americans, it

8:02

plummets to 12.7%. This is why they took this case to the Supreme

8:05

Court.

8:08

Could you imagine being an Asian American, you

8:11

focused your entire life on your academics,

8:13

you are in the highest academic ranking

8:16

that Harvard looks at, and they are

8:18

going to just accept 12.7%

8:21

of you,

8:22

but if you were black, you would have a 56.1% acceptance rate. That

8:27

is horrific, that chart continues, you

8:29

can keep looking, if you are just beneath

8:31

that in the ranking of 9 of the academic

8:33

decile, and you are white, they will only accept 10%

8:36

of the applicants when weighed against 54.6% pardon

8:39

of African Americans, and for Asian Americans,

8:45

again, the lowest, just 7.6%,

8:48

nearly perfect academic ranking, and

8:50

they are only going to take 7.6% of you

8:52

because, I don't know, Asians are just doing

8:54

too well, they don't like the fact that your morals

8:57

of your household are focused on academics,

8:59

they want somebody else, they want somebody

9:01

that looks black. And that

9:04

is really the take that so many

9:06

people that responded to this online had.

9:08

They essentially were saying that now that we are removing

9:11

this barrier, and we are allowing

9:14

Asian Americans, again, they are the number

9:16

one people that are being, number one race is being discriminated

9:18

against, to be permitted

9:20

based on their actual merits.

9:24

In a society that is a meritocracy,

9:26

we would want Asian Americans to

9:28

get into universities based

9:31

on their hard work.

9:32

People are seeing this and they are going, no, we can't have that because

9:34

it is going to happen now, because a lot of those black

9:36

kids are not going to

9:39

get into the universities that we have been artificially

9:41

placing them in.

9:43

So here are some of the positively

9:45

worst takes. Next up we

9:48

have Michelle Obama. Why is this already

9:50

a funny take? Because we know that her children

9:52

are definitely in Harvard on the basis

9:55

of legacy and because they are the president's

9:57

daughters. These are a perfect example of black children

9:59

that are not going

9:59

not growing up in a rough circumstance

10:02

whatsoever and will be able to do whatever they want because

10:04

of the wealth of their parents. But she decided to jump

10:06

in and she wrote this on Twitter. I

10:08

wanted to share some of my thoughts on today's Supreme

10:11

Court decision on affirmative action. Back

10:13

in college, I was one of the few

10:15

black students on my campus and

10:17

I was proud of getting into such a respected school. I

10:20

knew I had worked hard for it, but still,

10:22

I

10:22

sometimes wondered if people thought that I got there

10:25

because of affirmative action. It

10:27

was a shadow that students like me couldn't shake

10:29

whether those doubts came from the outside or inside

10:32

of our own minds. Oh, stop right there.

10:34

Guess what, Michelle Obama? We just took care of that. It's

10:37

no longer—they're going to know that you're there based on your

10:39

academic achievement because they're no longer going

10:41

to be artificially placing black students into

10:43

places that they should not be on the color of their skin. Do we

10:45

even need to read more? It's a stupid

10:48

take, obviously, because we've just solved

10:50

for that.

10:51

She went on to write, The fact is this, I belonged.

10:54

And semester after semester, decade after

10:57

decade, for more than half a century, countless

10:59

students like me showed that they belonged too.

11:01

It wasn't just the kids of color

11:03

who benefited either. Every student who heard a perspective

11:05

they might not have encountered, who had an assumption

11:08

challenge, who had their minds and their hearts open, gained

11:10

a lot as well. It wasn't perfect, but

11:12

there's no doubt that it helped offer new ladders

11:15

of opportunity for those who, throughout our history,

11:17

have too often been denied a chance to show how

11:19

fast they can climb. Your

11:21

chance to show how fast you can climb,

11:24

Michelle Obama, is when you

11:26

are in K through 12 in the public school system.

11:28

There's your chance, there's your chance. You can work hard.

11:31

You can say, I'm

11:31

not going to play sports. You can say, I'm going

11:33

to focus on academics. And you can

11:35

graduate in the same exact circumstances

11:38

and work just as hard as white Americans and

11:40

Asian Americans are working. And then you get into those schools not

11:42

because of the color of your skin, because

11:44

that's racist, because

11:46

of your academic achievement.

11:48

But by the way, of all of the worst

11:51

takes, hers is actually the best. It's just going to go downhill

11:53

from here, because sometimes I don't even know what

11:55

Democrats are talking about if we're even

11:57

following the same story, if we're looking at the same case.

11:59

We had AOC that then

12:02

came in, and she said this, it's just so implausibly

12:05

stupid. It's amazing to me that she's just

12:07

allowed to be this publicly and

12:09

audaciously stupid. And there

12:11

are no consequences for stupidity. She

12:13

wrote,

12:14

if the Supreme Court of the United States was serious

12:16

about their ludicrous color blindness

12:19

claims,

12:20

they would have abolished legacy admissions,

12:23

aka affirmative action for the privilege.

12:25

I think she's talking about Michelle Obama. 70% of

12:28

Harvard's legacy applicants are

12:30

white.

12:31

The SCOTUS didn't touch that, which would

12:33

have impacted them and their patrons. Oh,

12:36

actually, AOC, that just wasn't the

12:38

case they were looking at.

12:40

Do you know what the Supreme Court does? First

12:42

off, they don't legislate you moron,

12:44

okay? They can't go, the case

12:46

before me, which has been brought forward by Asian

12:48

students, wondering about whether or not this is discriminatory,

12:51

which is on the basis of what we do here at the Supreme

12:53

Court. We interpret the Constitution, and

12:56

we do have this Fourth Amendment that

12:58

says that we cannot discriminate based on race,

13:00

which is exactly what Harvard is doing. But in AOC's

13:03

mind, she wanted to look at this case, look at the Constitution, and say,

13:05

f this, yo. You know what? Forget

13:08

all of this. Forget you Asian kids. Forget what you're saying.

13:10

I rule, I legislate,

13:12

actually, that it's the legacy admissions that have to

13:14

go. Bye-bye legacy admissions.

13:17

How was she allowed to be this stupid? I just don't

13:19

understand. What case does she think was happening? Was she

13:21

following the case? Does she just say

13:23

stuff? Yes, we know she just says stuff.

13:26

And this is what people are doing. They're just trying to make it seem like

13:28

the case that wasn't brought between

13:30

the Supreme Court was decided wrongly, and it

13:32

wasn't brought. And by the way, regarding

13:35

that, as I just said, legacy admissions,

13:38

there is not going to be anything constitutionally that

13:40

the Supreme Court can do about that because their job, again,

13:42

is to interpret the Constitution as the law

13:44

of the land.

13:46

Next up, in responding to things that

13:48

didn't happen, we have Gavin Newsom. He wrote this. They

13:51

want to whitewash our nation's history.

13:53

They want to bring America back to the era of book

13:56

bans, interrogated campuses. We cannot let

13:58

them.

13:59

Again,

14:00

what case was he following?

14:04

First and foremost, if you want to talk about segregated campuses,

14:06

that seems to be happening on liberal campuses. All

14:08

of these graduations that are taking place, they

14:10

want a black graduation versus an Asian graduation

14:13

versus a LGBTQ

14:17

purple, I think is what they're calling it, graduation.

14:19

That's happening under liberal leadership. Conservatives

14:22

are saying it's wrong and it's racist because we're pretty consistent

14:24

on this. This is our consistent

14:27

idea that all racism is wrong. Secondly,

14:29

whitewash our nation's

14:30

history. What are you talking about? Asian

14:33

Americans brought this case forward because Asian Americans

14:35

are being discriminated against and now Asian Americans

14:38

have been freed from that discrimination. Why are

14:40

you making this a black and white issue? And

14:42

what on earth are you talking about

14:44

with book bands? I just want to know what case

14:46

he's responding to because maybe we missed it

14:48

and there was something else that he's really upset

14:51

about, but he does seem to be responding

14:53

to the Supreme Court ruling. Next

14:56

up we have this girl, Erika Marsh, and

14:59

this is amazing because we call this the

15:00

Freudian slip. People actually

15:03

thought this might be a parody count because it was

15:05

just so outrageously and flagrantly

15:07

racist and this is what we talk about

15:09

when we say the bigotry of low expectations

15:12

and what white liberals actually

15:14

think about black people. They just don't think we can

15:16

achieve based on our own merit. Erika

15:19

Marsh wrote, today's Supreme

15:21

Court decision is a direct attack on black

15:23

people.

15:24

No black person will be able to succeed

15:27

in a merit-based system,

15:30

which is exactly why affirmative action-based

15:32

programs are needed. Today's decision is a travesty.

15:34

Okay, let's read that again. No

15:36

black person will be able to succeed

15:39

in a merit-based system. You

15:41

guys have no merit. We

15:43

haven't just placed you there to make you feel good because

15:45

you're all pretty stupid. And now

15:47

that we're removing this, it's obvious what's

15:49

going to happen here is you're not going to see black Americans

15:52

at Harvard. If that is the result,

15:55

if we see a decrease and black Americans

15:57

now rather than being accepted at a 56

15:59

6.1% rate in the

16:02

highest academic rank are

16:04

then plummeted to, I don't know, 2%.

16:07

Good. Put us where we belong.

16:09

We cannot respond to the issue,

16:11

okay? We cannot actually make things

16:13

better if you are artificially making it look

16:16

like we're doing better when we're clearly not. And

16:19

by the way, in case you missed it, I think I've told you this

16:21

on the show a few times, nobody,

16:23

despite what Michelle Obama is trying to tell you, was

16:26

actually benefiting from affirmative

16:28

action. Nobody, right? The kids

16:30

that were benefiting, quote, unquote,

16:33

benefiting from this, the black students, were being found

16:35

on academic probation because they were artificially

16:38

mismatched into schools that were

16:39

above their intellect, whereas they would have performed

16:41

brilliantly had they been placed

16:43

at schools that maybe didn't have the academic rigor of

16:46

Harvard, but also was a really great school that they

16:48

could have been at the top of their academic class. Black

16:50

Americans are suffering because of this, white

16:52

Americans are suffering because of this, and especially

16:54

Asian Americans are suffering because

16:56

of this. The great Clarence

16:59

Thomas had this to say about the matter,

17:01

which I thought was wonderful. He said this quotation,

17:04

I hold out enduring hope

17:06

that this country will live up to its principles

17:08

so clearly enunciated in the Declaration of Independence

17:11

and the Constitution of the United States that all

17:13

men are created equal, are equal citizens,

17:16

and must be treated equally before

17:18

the law. Again, I do not

17:20

understand how this is a conflict

17:22

for some people. I do not understand the white savior

17:25

mentality. I do not understand the black Americans

17:27

who fight and preach the entire

17:30

time about disparities, not

17:32

understanding that it is unacceptable to discriminate

17:35

so flagrantly against Asian Americans.

17:38

All of it is just so patently wrong, and

17:40

it has now been solved for. The Supreme Court has been doing

17:42

tremendous work in tons of other regards

17:44

as well. Let me say this. If you're a white

17:46

American or an Asian American and you're saying, more of

17:49

us need to be in the NBA,

17:50

then I implore you to work on your jump shot.

17:53

If you are a black American, you're saying, more of us need

17:55

to be at Harvard and at UNC, then

17:57

I implore you to work on your academics.

18:00

That's all I have to say about that. History

18:03

was made on June 24, 2022, when a 50-year-old law was overturned in

18:05

a landmark ruling.

18:09

This month, we celebrate the one-year anniversary

18:11

of the fall of Roe, but our work is not

18:13

done. Pre-born lives matter today, and

18:15

we need to make sure they matter tomorrow. As

18:17

we celebrate the one-year anniversary of the fall

18:19

of Roe, let's continue to do our part.

18:22

Pre-born's network of clinics exists exclusively

18:24

to offer love, life, and support to

18:26

pregnant women who are feeling scared, alone,

18:28

or pressured to make the ultimate choice. One that

18:30

will not only sacrifice life of their pre-born baby,

18:32

but also take a piece of their own heart. When

18:35

a distressed mother comes to pre-born, she is welcomed

18:37

with open arms and is offered a free ultrasound

18:39

so that she can see the precious life that's growing inside

18:42

of her.

18:42

The majority of the time, she will choose life. My

18:45

name is Val Tayshia. I have five

18:47

kids total. I have an eight-year-old

18:50

daughter. I have a two-year-old son.

18:52

And I have

18:53

triplets.

18:56

I was basically a single mom.

19:02

I didn't have an address to my name. And

19:05

here it comes, you know, that not just

19:08

one baby I'm finna have. It was three.

19:10

I honestly was not gonna keep them. I had it

19:12

in my mind deep down inside that

19:15

I couldn't do it. You know, I didn't have no

19:17

help. I came straight abortion-minded.

19:20

What changed my mind was I talked

19:23

to the counselor. And, you know,

19:25

very encouraging. They also tell

19:27

me, you know, you're not gonna be alone. You know,

19:30

you're not, you're gonna,

19:30

we're gonna give you, you know, if you need anything,

19:33

you know, reach out to us or anything. Actually

19:35

my daughter saw the ultrasound

19:38

that I took home and she asked

19:40

me what this was. And she got very

19:42

excited. I was amazed. Like,

19:44

I'm really carrying three

19:47

babies. I would go to the doctor and I would see

19:49

them. I would see them on the screen. And it was

19:51

so beautiful. It was so beautiful

19:53

that I'm like thanking God

19:55

that I had my babies. Their names

19:58

are Ryan, Rayon, and Rayne.

19:59

All three of them was pregnant. Looking

20:02

at them in the NICU with a

20:04

lot of tubes in them, that

20:06

hurt my heart to see. But

20:08

again, it was still a blessing because

20:10

my baby was alive. I

20:13

definitely have a challenge of

20:16

having my babies, all

20:18

five of them. A lot of people will

20:20

ask me, how do you do that? How

20:22

do you maintain? How do you

20:25

carry? What do you do? Only

20:27

thing I can say is prayer.

20:29

Like prayer really, really

20:32

works. Love on yourself. You have to love

20:34

yourself before you can show, give love. So

20:36

once you love on yourself, give it to your

20:38

baby. You have riches. We

20:41

might not have the money, but you rich.

20:44

We can all make a difference by donating $64 to

20:47

honor the precious lives lost and to keep

20:49

the lives of those at risk safe.

20:51

Every penny goes towards loving mothers and babies

20:53

as well. To donate, dial pound 250

20:57

and say the keyword, baby.

20:58

All gifts are tax deductible.

21:00

You will never regret saving a defenseless baby's

21:02

life. That's pound 250

21:05

baby, or visit preborn.com

21:07

slash Candace.

21:09

Okay, now it's time for some topics du jour.

21:12

So sadly, sadly

21:14

guys,

21:18

this

21:21

is going to be the last show in Pride Month.

21:23

I've been having so much fun. I'm a reformed

21:25

person. I get it now. YouTube broke

21:28

me and I realized that. I told

21:30

you guys earlier, I'm a big old lesbo. Anyways, it

21:32

feels fitting that we're kind of buttoning Pride

21:34

Month by discussing Dylan Mulvaney, where

21:37

obviously so much happened in the past

21:39

month. Maybe it's been two months with Bud Light. And

21:42

then we started hearing less from Dylan Mulvaney.

21:44

And then we saw one video where

21:46

Dylan Mulvaney suddenly changed,

21:49

not

21:50

the pronouns, but Dylan Mulvaney said,

21:52

I'm not a little girl, which I've actually was

21:54

very proud to hear that because that was for

21:56

me, the most sickening part

21:58

is allowing.

21:59

somebody that is almost 30 years old

22:02

to pretend they're a little girl and then having that person

22:04

being celebrated. Well, now Dylan

22:06

Mulvaney is speaking out against Bud

22:08

Light, and I would like you to hear what Dylan

22:10

has to say. Take a listen.

22:12

And for months now, I've been scared

22:14

to leave my house. I have been ridiculed

22:17

in public. I've been followed. And

22:20

I have felt a loneliness that I wouldn't wish

22:22

on anyone. And I'm not telling

22:24

you this because I want your pity. I am telling

22:26

you this because if this is my experience

22:29

from a very privileged perspective,

22:32

know that it is much, much worse for other

22:34

trans people.

22:36

For a company to hire a trans

22:38

person and then not publicly stand by

22:40

them is worse, in my opinion,

22:42

than not hiring a trans person

22:43

at all. Because it

22:45

gives customers permission to be as transphobic

22:48

and hateful as they want. And

22:50

the hate doesn't end with me. It has serious

22:52

engraved consequences for the rest of our

22:55

community. It's still Pride Month. So

22:59

I'm going to celebrate being alive.

23:01

And I'm going to celebrate the trans people

23:03

in my life and the ones I haven't met yet. So

23:06

a couple of things that I want to say here, and

23:08

I will widen the issue so that I don't just

23:10

make it about Dylan. But Dylan says

23:12

in this video that I

23:16

didn't want to leave the house, this concept

23:18

of being under duress or under threats.

23:20

The end there, I

23:22

am going to celebrate being alive.

23:25

What really makes me angry, and I'm going to say

23:27

this as a black American,

23:30

is when we have a group of

23:32

individuals, transgendered individuals that

23:34

are cosplaying black Americans in

23:36

the 1920s. That's what it feels like. They want

23:38

you to believe, right, that they are

23:40

suffering, that they are under duress, that there's clans,

23:42

could have clansmen that are coming after them. That's literally

23:45

what they are trying to sell to the public, that they are the next

23:47

big civil rights issue. And

23:49

it is almost as if the emotions that

23:51

they are always trying to draw is akin

23:54

to what black Americans did actually

23:56

live through in the 20s, right? And what black

23:58

Americans lived through.

23:59

During the time of June Crow, there was another, you know, Klansmen

24:02

came back together in the 1940s and things of

24:04

that era, things that, the stories my grandfather tells

24:06

me, I didn't endure that as a young black American, but

24:08

the stories my grandfather used to tell me about the Klansmen.

24:11

This is how they act when

24:13

we say we're not gonna drink beer, okay?

24:16

That's what happened. There's no reason not to leave your house. And

24:18

by the way, Dylan definitely left

24:20

the house. Here is a photo of Dylan

24:23

Mulvaney just a few weeks ago next

24:25

to Olivia Wilde. Dylan Mulvaney is wearing

24:27

an $800 Prada bra,

24:30

because this is not the great civil rights

24:32

issue of our time, okay?

24:34

If black Americans in the 20s had

24:37

received an invite to the White House while they

24:39

were actually living under duress, and if

24:41

one of them chose to, I don't know, get

24:44

naked on the White House

24:46

lawn, I imagine they would have been left

24:48

hanging from a White House tree.

24:50

But trans individuals want you to

24:52

believe that they're them. That, I think,

24:55

when I really sit down and

24:57

contemplate why this issue infuriates

25:00

me, it is because they are cosplaying

25:02

victimhood from our past. It's the same repeat

25:05

issue that infuriates me. I don't even like when

25:07

black Americans today who grew up with conditions that

25:09

I grew up in pretend that they are suffering

25:11

what our ancestors suffered. But imagine a

25:13

community of individuals who

25:16

want to sometimes say that they're little girls.

25:18

Again, Dylan has completely changed that. Dylan

25:20

no longer claims to be a little girl, but

25:22

they can just wake up at a whim and decide something. We

25:25

talked about Demi Lovato, who I would have been

25:27

hit if I didn't refer to Demi Lovato

25:29

as they there, but now Demi Lovato says that

25:31

she's back to she, her, so that's okay.

25:34

We're playing, really what's happening here is

25:36

a game of people that are

25:39

going through emotions which are fleeting,

25:41

as Demi Lovato proves, in the circumstance of changing

25:44

her pronouns. And we're all being told to respond

25:46

to it. And if we respond to it rationally,

25:49

if we respond to this and say,

25:50

I don't accept this, I don't accept that you can

25:52

infringe upon my reality, we

25:55

are basically being castigated as

25:57

bigots from yesteryear.

25:59

And it needs to stop, okay?

26:02

Black people weren't running around wearing $800 Prada

26:04

bags being invited

26:06

to the White House and stripping naked. You

26:09

know why? Because they were actually suffering.

26:12

So please stop causing it. As

26:14

central banks in countries like China, India, and

26:16

Australia begin transitioning to digital currency,

26:19

the Federal Reserve has been contemplating the same for the United

26:21

States.

26:22

With a digital currency, the government could track every

26:24

single purchase that you make. Officials could even

26:26

prohibit you from purchasing certain products and easily

26:29

freeze or seize part or all

26:31

of your money.

26:32

Times like these are a great reminder to diversify

26:34

a portion of your savings into gold, and

26:36

you can do that with the help of Birch Gold.

26:38

Birch Gold will help you convert an existing IRA

26:41

or 401k into an IRA that's backed

26:43

in gold. You don't pay a penny out of pocket.

26:45

When

26:45

currencies fail, gold is a safe haven. How

26:48

much more time does dollar have? Protect

26:50

your savings with gold.

26:51

Birch Gold has an A-plus ring with the Better Business Bureau

26:54

and thousands of happy customers. So text KANDUS

26:56

to 989898 and get your free info kit on gold. If

27:00

a central bank digital currency becomes a reality, it

27:03

will be nice to have some gold to depend on. Again,

27:05

text KANDUS to 989898. It's

27:09

playing victimhood.

27:11

And if you're out there and you're still not drinking Bud

27:13

Light good for you, because if there's one thing that I will

27:15

give Dylan credit for here, it's

27:17

letting us know that Bud Light did in fact

27:20

have a deal in place, and so they publicly lied

27:22

and pretended it was just one can that went out.

27:25

I don't like people that lie at all. So

27:27

Bud Light, sorry, no one in my household

27:29

will ever drink it. Moving on, you

27:31

guys, and speaking of liars, there's been an update

27:33

in the New York Post today regarding Steven

27:36

Crowder and his divorce. Now, why are

27:38

we talking about this today? Well, our fresh memory first

27:40

and foremost. When he did an announcement about his

27:42

divorce, bizarrely, he included a clip

27:44

of me and heavily implied that I extorted

27:46

him somehow behind the scenes. It never happened. I've

27:49

never even met Steven Crowder. I've only ever done

27:51

one thing ever, and I was required to contractually

27:54

with the Daily Wire, which was backstage

27:56

just a few weeks before he tried to throw the entire Daily

27:58

Wire under the bus because

27:59

Well, we wanted money, that's the truth, right?

28:02

So anyways, it's the reason why I have been interested in this

28:05

case and then of course came

28:07

even further lies, which I knew were lies at the time.

28:10

He responded to a video in

28:13

which his followers believed that I was responsible

28:15

for leaking a video, I had nothing to do

28:17

with his divorce then. I have nothing to

28:19

do with his divorce now. I never conspired with

28:21

any journalist to release a video that I didn't know existed.

28:24

I covered the video like everybody else did

28:26

that day because it was astonishing and it was trending

28:28

worldwide. And I cover the news, whether

28:30

it's celebrity news sometimes, whether it's Kim

28:32

Kardashian at a wedding, I cover the news

28:34

when the news is interesting. And this of course is interesting because

28:36

you have a person

28:37

that purports to be a conservative who

28:39

looks very much to me to be abusing his wife.

28:42

So in response to these abuse claims, Steven

28:45

Crowder then said that he wanted everything

28:48

opened up to the public. And here we are today,

28:50

let me remind you of what Steven Crowder

28:52

said when he made that demand for the

28:54

truth to be revealed. Because you were all seeing

28:56

in quote unquote edited clip that

28:59

was depicting him wrongly. Take a

29:01

listen.

29:01

So today, I have filed a motion

29:04

to officially unseal all files

29:06

as they relate to the matter of legal record

29:09

finances, relevant medical records,

29:11

including mental health history or evaluations,

29:13

depositions. And any motions or

29:15

sanctions from the courts of Texas.

29:18

I will not be leaking private marital

29:20

information to the press. But if the privacy

29:22

agreements are not respected by all parties,

29:25

I will address all that is a matter of irrefutable

29:28

legal record in full context

29:31

next week.

29:33

He never did that because

29:34

he just says stuff. That's not true and nobody

29:36

fact checks him. And a lot of his followers just

29:39

simply believe everything he says. Candace must have leaked

29:41

this. She must have extorted him privately behind

29:43

the scenes completely and utterly made up. This is sociopathic

29:46

behavior. You can't just make up lies like this.

29:48

Well, it also turns out that he lied

29:51

in the effort to release all the documents.

29:53

And then when he showed up for court, he tried

29:56

to get everything locked down. In fact, it is his wife,

29:58

it turns out, that is fighting for

29:59

more exposure. It is his wife that is fighting

30:02

for more sunlight, which is in fact the best

30:04

disinfectant. According to

30:06

the New York Post, Hillary testified

30:09

that her soon-to-be ex-husband has rage issues

30:11

and punches holes in the wall, while Crowder

30:13

asked for full custody of his children claiming

30:16

that Hillary exhibited erratic behavior.

30:18

Now, you remember at the time he also posted something heavily

30:20

implying that she had mental health issues. And again,

30:23

she has no platform. She has no

30:25

social media profiles. So people just accepted

30:27

this and said, wait, wait until stuff comes out. They were going to

30:29

find out

30:29

that actually he's been under duress and his wife is crazy.

30:32

Well, then he gave an example of her erratic

30:35

behavior. As an example of her

30:37

erratic behavior, he alleged that Hillary had

30:39

not informed him

30:41

that their home address had been posted on Twitter

30:43

for several months,

30:45

and he accused her family of leaking the viral

30:47

ring footage of him berating her while she was pregnant.

30:50

His attorney noted that she has no public social

30:52

media presence. So her erratic behavior

30:55

is the fact that she didn't inform

30:57

him that there was a tweet that she had not

30:59

authored that was on the web that

31:02

had their home address on it. That sounds like

31:04

a really erratic, crazy

31:06

woman.

31:07

Now, his demand for the custody of one year

31:10

old twins raised eyebrows among

31:12

former staffers of his media company, who

31:14

said that it clashed with his very public express

31:17

conservative beliefs that children need both parents,

31:19

not the mothers, our primary caregivers.

31:22

Well, the update to that, Hillary

31:24

testified that he was not present during her IVF

31:27

treatments. He was also absent during the birth

31:29

of his children because he had that elective

31:31

surgery that we spoke about in the past. And

31:34

she said that he moved out of the family home before

31:36

the twins were even born. A

31:37

former staffer says that he is a hypocrite,

31:40

pointing to a number of his tweets and his public

31:42

statements regarding parenting. His public staffer

31:44

also brought up this important point. They said,

31:47

quote, of course if you file for custody, you'd think

31:49

that you would lead with stories about rages behavior

31:51

like drunken binges or child abuse.

31:54

No, none of that. Something more than her not

31:57

telling someone about a leak on Twitter when she

31:59

says that she doesn't even have

31:59

a Twitter account. It's punitive and

32:02

it feels like a threat to make her scared. I

32:04

do believe that she is operating under duress.

32:06

The judge fortunately came back and said that he is not

32:09

going to change the custody agreement and that

32:11

he is dismayed by the number of volumes

32:13

of motions that have been filed. So

32:15

there you have it. It looks like this case is still

32:18

going to remain public, which is what he initially

32:20

called for, even though he then asked the judge

32:22

to lock everything down because what he says

32:25

in public and what he does in private are two different things. For

32:27

every reason, there are people that have not pieced this together. That

32:29

you have public staffers,

32:31

former friends, now his wife, all telling

32:33

you that this man is a sociopathic liar.

32:35

But, oh, I guess there must be some big conspiracy. We all must be

32:37

working together behind the scenes. Kansas must be

32:39

working with the family and journalists

32:41

and public staffers that I've never met

32:44

who are saying that they're scared to speak out because

32:46

they've signed very vindictive NDAs

32:48

with him. Like I said, my grandfather

32:50

always used to say that people tell you who they are early

32:53

on. Listen, there just could not be more proof

32:55

that he lies and lies and lies

32:57

and then tries to go behind the scenes and correct

32:59

it. I will continue to pray for his wife,

33:01

Hillary Crowder, because

33:03

this situation makes me extremely uncomfortable.

33:05

And I feel great because I know people are going to say,

33:08

you shouldn't get involved in somebody's divorce. You know what you should

33:10

not do? Involve somebody in your

33:12

divorce. And that's all I'm going to say about

33:14

that. All right, guys, that is all the time that we have

33:16

for today. As a reminder, A Shot in the Dark, the series

33:18

I am most proud of, is available now on Daily

33:20

33:23

in the Dark and it's Owens. If you are a mother or

33:29

mother to be a grandparent, you absolutely must

33:34

predatory vaccine schedule for children. You

33:41

next week I'm finally going away. I feel like I've not taken a vacation

33:44

in forever. But don't worry, I prerecorded

33:46

content for you. It's going to be much more personal content,

33:49

topics that I care about deeply that

33:51

I never bring to the public. So we will have all

33:53

that for you. So come back on Monday and

33:55

there'll be a brand new episode.

34:06

What if there was someone out there who kept a log

34:08

of every single thing that you did every minute

34:10

of the day? That would be pretty creepy. What

34:12

if I told you that's exactly what's happening every time that you

34:15

go online?

34:16

Your internet provider is legally allowed to store

34:18

logs of every website that you've ever visited, and

34:20

they can sell this data to anyone.

34:22

That's why I use ExpressVPN. ExpressVPN

34:25

reroutes your internet connection through their secure servers

34:27

so that your internet provider cannot see what

34:29

you're doing online. You

34:31

might be asking yourself, well, if I'm routing all my data

34:33

through a VPN, doesn't that mean that the VPN can log my data

34:35

instead? No, not with ExpressVPN.

34:38

ExpressVPN is the first major VPN

34:40

provider to engineer all of their VPN servers to

34:42

run in RAM, which

34:43

makes it impossible for their servers to store any

34:45

data. So stop letting people keep logs

34:47

of what you do online. Visit expressvpn.com

34:50

slash candice right now and find out how you can

34:52

get three extra months free.

34:54
