Have you ever told a friend? Oh,

0:02

I'm fine. When you really felt...

0:05

Just so overwhelmed. Or

0:07

sent a text. Can't sleep.

0:10

Are you awake? When you couldn't find

0:12

the words to say. I'm scared

0:14

to be alone with my thoughts right now.

0:17

Then this is your sign to reach out to

0:19

the 988 Lifeline for 24-7 free confidential support. You

0:24

don't have to hide how you feel. Text,

0:26

call, or chat anytime.

0:31

Well, 2024 has arrived. And

0:34

before it gets fully underway, I'd like to

0:36

pause and give you my predictions of what

0:38

we can expect from this exciting new year.

0:42

With the war in what used to be

0:44

Ukraine turning sour for the future citizens

0:46

of Russia, and the war in what

0:48

used to be Gaza spreading to encompass

0:50

Lebanon, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Harvard University,

0:52

AOC's fantasy life, a falafel stand on

0:54

53rd Street, the empty place in the

0:57

minds of college students where knowledge would

0:59

be if they had ever learned anything,

1:01

and anywhere else where there are members

1:03

of Hamas, or supporters of Hamas, or

1:05

customers at the falafel stand who asked

1:07

how much, and it sort of sounded

1:09

like Hamas, or anyone wearing one of

1:11

those sinister black and white scarves who can't

1:13

prove he's an extra in the remake of

1:15

Lawrence of Arabia, or anyone who thought remaking

1:17

Lawrence of Arabia was a good idea, I

1:20

think we can expect China to seize this

1:22

moment to invade Taiwan. The

1:25

American military will of course respond

1:27

immediately with a delightful transgender musical

1:29

extravaganza featuring the Joint Chiefs

1:31

of Staff forming a kick line in matching

1:33

pleated lemme gowns. During intermission,

1:36

the Chinese army will take time out to enjoy

1:38

a tasty falafel at the stand on 53rd Street

1:41

after they finish invading New York City, where

1:43

of course they'll be entirely wiped out by the

1:45

Israelis. After that, the

1:47

7th seal will be opened, the sun will

1:49

turn as black as sackcloth made from goat's

1:51

hair, and the people will hide in caves

1:53

praying for death before they face the wrathful

1:55

judgment of the Lamb of God. Then,

1:58

in February, President Trump announced that the President

2:00

and venal houseplant Joe Biden will suddenly sit

2:03

up in bed and shout ice cream as

2:05

he finally remembers the answer to the question,

2:07

what's your favorite food, which Ryan Seacrest asked

2:09

them on New Year's Eve. In

2:12

April, Biden will announce that he will not

2:14

run for reelection, but will instead lie in

2:16

state after having passed away last July. Kamala

2:19

Harris will also step aside after Mexico

2:21

rewards her for the job she did

2:23

securing the border by giving her her

2:25

own cartel. Known by

2:28

her Mexican nickname El Stupido beyond believe

2:30

a mentee, Kamala will then make history

2:32

by becoming the first sort of black

2:34

sort of woman to run a multinational

2:36

crime organization while being unable to spell

2:39

fentanyl. After some

2:41

inter party jockeying, Gavin Newsom will

2:43

become the Democrat candidate running under

2:45

the slogan, let's make everything California

2:47

accompanied by a picture of a

2:49

beautiful blue sky with a smiling

2:51

sun shining down on a flaming

2:53

toilet. Newsom will demonstrate

2:55

his commitment to public safety by promising to

2:57

make every American wear a mask unless he's

2:59

looting a Walmart, in which case there's no

3:02

need. Finally, in November,

3:04

Donald Trump will be reelected president and

3:06

will celebrate his victory by hanging a

3:08

poster of Rita Hayworth on the wall

3:10

of his prison cell and then disappearing

3:12

without a trace until guards look behind

3:14

the poster and realize Trump used a

3:16

plastic spoon to dig a tunnel from

3:18

the prison to the Oval Office. There,

3:21

Trump will already be hard at work

3:23

filling his administration with people who absolutely

3:25

detest him and want to sabotage everything

3:27

he does. Nevertheless, in his

3:29

first hundred days, Trump will order the

3:31

building of a spectacular new DC headquarters

3:33

for the FBI so they can continue

3:36

their important work of investigating Trump for

3:38

crimes committed by Hillary Clinton. Trump

3:41

will sign an executive order allowing trans

3:43

women athletes to compete in pissing contests

3:45

in ladies rooms across the country and

3:47

he'll announce a second operation warp speed

3:50

to ramp up the manufacture of his

3:52

perfect vaccine until Dr. Fauci announces the

3:54

pandemic is over. Trump

3:56

supporters, meanwhile, will celebrate Trump owning the

3:58

libs by taking the perfect vaccine and

4:00

then dying of heart attacks. In

4:03

sports, we can look forward to NFL referees

4:05

announcing that the Chiefs were offsides in last

4:07

year's Super Bowl and the Eagles are now

4:09

the 2023 champions. And

4:13

leftist documentarian Charmaine O'Baid-Shanoi will direct

4:15

a new feminist Star Wars film

4:17

to prove that there's something even

4:20

emptier than outer space, namely theaters

4:22

showing the new Star Wars film

4:24

by leftist documentarian Charmaine O'Baid-Shanoi. Trigger

4:27

warning, I'm Andrew Klavan, and this

4:29

is The Andrew Klavan Show. Happy

4:47

New Year! We are back laughing our way

4:49

through this final year of the Republic. I

4:52

hope you had a great pre-apocalypse Christmas, or

4:54

if you celebrate Hanukkah, of course, I hope

4:56

you convert it to Christianity so you'll be

4:58

ready for the return of Jesus directly after

5:01

the show. Subscribe to the

5:03

Andrew Klavan YouTube channel. It's my personal

5:05

YouTube channel where you will get exclusive

5:07

content, stuff that no one else gets,

5:09

and stuff that you can get on

5:12

Audible as well, on Audio Feed as

5:14

well, like our interviews. This

5:17

week we have Douglas Wilson, one of my favorite Protestant

5:20

theologians, a really interesting character. I really like

5:22

him and great to talk to him. And

5:25

leave a comment there, and if the comment

5:27

is absolutely morally reprehensible, we will read it

5:29

on this show, because that's what we do.

5:31

That's who we are. And they

5:34

talk about, you know, that's not who Americans are, it's

5:36

who we are. We are just despicable. Today's

5:38

comment, a lot of the comments today, I

5:40

have to say, we did a show with

5:43

my son, no relation Spencer Klavan, and my

5:45

daughter, Faith Moore, our

5:47

special Christmas show, and it just got a

5:49

lot of praise. And so I don't

5:51

want to just read all these very nice

5:53

comments, but I will read this

5:56

one from JJ97HS, said, how

5:58

to save the culture. Step

6:00

one, exchange the Kardashians for the

6:02

Clevens, and that's it. That

6:05

would probably work, though you would have fewer shoes.

6:08

Let us get to today's episode

6:10

and stay out, Claudine. In

6:17

all seriousness, or in as much seriousness as

6:19

I'm capable of, I feel as we start

6:21

2024 that

6:23

an age is passing away before our eyes.

6:26

A cycle is passing away. And surprisingly, I

6:28

actually feel I've been on the winning side

6:30

of every fight that I've fought. The

6:33

left is losing and has lost its

6:35

monopoly on information, on prestige, and even

6:37

on culture. And the question is, as

6:40

they start to lose power, how violent is

6:42

the transition to a new cycle going to

6:44

be? And will conservatives come up

6:46

with a positive new vision for the future, which

6:48

is still an open question? So let's take a

6:51

big step back and take a

6:53

look at the big picture of what's in store

6:55

for 24 with chapter

6:57

one, where we at. So

7:01

I was just talking to the folks in

7:03

the advertising department, and they were telling me

7:05

that balance of nature, fruits and veggies, are

7:08

changing the people's blood

7:10

work. They're going to the doctor

7:12

and getting better blood work because

7:14

they're taking balance of nature, fruits

7:16

and veggies, a great way to

7:18

make sure you're getting essential nutritional

7:20

ingredients every single day. Balance of

7:22

nature uses an advanced cold vacuum

7:24

process that encapsulates fruits and vegetables

7:26

into whole food supplements without sacrificing

7:28

their natural antioxidants. So I asked the people

7:31

in the ad department to send them to

7:33

me. I'm going to try using them. The

7:35

capsules are completely void of additives, fillers, extracts,

7:37

synthetics, pesticides, or added sugar. The only thing

7:39

in balance of nature's fruit and veggie capsules

7:41

are fruits and veggies. Right now, not

7:43

only will my listeners get 35% off

7:46

your first order, you'll now get a free

7:48

fiber and spice supplement as well. Balance

7:50

of nature's fiber and spice supplement is a

7:53

revolutionary fiber drink with a unique blend of

7:55

12 spices and whole foods. Everybody

7:57

in the office loves this stuff. They're taking it all the time.

8:00

There's never been an easier way

8:02

to make sure you're getting your

8:04

daily dose of fruits and vegetables.

8:06

8:23

8:25

know you're asking, how do you spell

8:27

balance of nature? It's K-L-A-V-A-N. In this

8:30

show, there are no E's in anything. So

8:40

obviously as we look ahead at the

8:42

year, the big event we're looking at

8:45

is the election. First,

8:47

the disastrous Ukraine surrender,

8:49

then the Middle East becoming World

8:51

War III, followed by

8:53

the apocalypse and the second coming,

8:55

and then the election. And

8:58

we'll have more information after

9:00

the Iowa caucuses, which

9:02

are the 15th, I believe. But

9:05

right now it looks like it's going to be Donald Trump. He

9:07

looks like he's just so far ahead no one can catch him.

9:09

Just the way it looks. Versus whoever it

9:12

is that replaces Biden. I do not think

9:14

it can be Biden all the way. He

9:16

may get the most delegates.

9:19

He may be set for the nomination. I do

9:21

not believe he can run. I don't know if

9:23

you saw this moment with Ryan Seacrest that I

9:25

was joking about in the opening. At New Year's,

9:28

he did a basic softball interview,

9:30

which is what you expect in this thing. It's

9:32

not like he was supposed to hammer him, but

9:34

he's asking him about the food he eats. He's

9:36

got one. I'm curious, what sort of

9:38

holiday foods have you been enjoying over the

9:40

last few days? Well, I've been

9:42

eating everything that's put in front of me. I've been

9:45

eating pasta, which I love. Eating

9:47

a lot of chicken, chicken parmesan. I've

9:49

been eating all Italian foods, basically. And ice

9:52

cream. Chocolate chip ice

9:54

cream. I can't remember that that's his

9:56

signature. It

9:58

was like watching a five-year-old step. up to

10:00

a wiffle ball on a plastic tee

10:02

and missing it. You know, it's just like

10:04

a guy is just not all there anymore.

10:07

But if you think about it, I'm a

10:09

novelist. So if you think about it novelistically

10:11

or metaphorically, Biden is actually the perfect representative

10:13

of this moment in Western culture. This

10:17

is a cycle that is done. And

10:19

he's done. He's old. He's

10:21

corrupt. He has dementia. He doesn't

10:23

know anything. He's the embodiment of

10:25

the current iteration of Western civilization.

10:27

This cycle is coming to an

10:29

end. And you

10:32

know, when you talk about this, you have

10:34

to really step back pretty far to get

10:36

a good look at it. And one of

10:38

the real triumphs of the left's takeover of

10:40

our learning institutions and of our media, both

10:43

our news media and our entertainment media, is

10:45

we now have a generation of

10:47

some of the deepest ignorance I've ever seen.

10:50

It's induced ignorance. And it's not just that

10:52

young people think good is evil and evil

10:54

is good. Their imaginations are barren because they

10:56

have no reference points, no historical factual reference

10:59

points to base their ideas off of. They

11:01

can't conceive of what things are actually like,

11:03

especially for other people, which of course is

11:05

the foundation of all morality. When I talk

11:08

about the great speculation that other people have

11:10

an inner life that's just as important to

11:12

them as yours is to you and that

11:14

yours and theirs are equally important to God,

11:16

they can't do that because they don't have

11:19

any facts in their head. I

11:21

just want to play. I'm not going to

11:23

get into the whole Israel thing, but here's

11:25

a Columbia student. After

11:27

October 7th, I got this off the Chris

11:30

Kenny show on Sky News in Australia, after

11:32

October 7th at a meeting

11:34

meant to celebrate the unbearable,

11:37

unthinkable atrocities that Hamas

11:39

committed. And I just

11:41

put this forward, not about the issue

11:44

itself, but just to show you how

11:46

ignorant our young people are and it's

11:48

induced ignorance. They were taught, scold in

11:51

ignorance by leftist professors and the administrations

11:53

that support them. So,

12:22

she's praising, I

12:24

shouldn't laugh, but she's praising the creativity

12:26

of the freedom fighters of Hamas. If

12:28

she had been there, would have raped

12:30

her to death while cutting her body

12:32

into little pieces at the same time.

12:34

That's what they would have done to

12:36

her with their creativity and determination. She

12:40

calls this a triumph like

12:42

Vietnam, where the victory

12:44

of the communists led to the

12:46

murder of two million people, at

12:48

least, and these weren't rich people.

12:50

These were just peasants. They were

12:52

ordinary Vietnamese and Cambodian people who

12:54

didn't know Karl Marx from Groucho.

12:57

They just were not, got in

12:59

the way of the communists. She

13:01

talks about Afghanistan, where they have

13:03

shut down the education of children.

13:05

And then, unbelievably, she quotes

13:07

Mao as if he were a

13:10

wise, important leader, the greatest mass

13:12

murderer of the 20th century, which

13:14

was the century of mass murder.

13:18

65 million people slaughtered because

13:20

of Mao's policies. And she's quoting him,

13:22

no, dare to struggle, dare to win.

13:25

Win what? Not that much death. It's

13:28

really as if it's like going to

13:30

Silence of the Lambs and thinking Annabelle

13:32

Lecter is the hero of the movie.

13:35

This is a product of Columbia

13:37

University, one of our prestigious Ivy

13:40

League universities. And it's not just

13:42

her. It's all the

13:44

young people. If you're not reading books, if

13:46

you're not listening to me and Spencer Clavin,

13:48

no relation, talking about the

13:50

great works, if you're not reading Chris

13:52

Rufo's book and Michael Nolz's book about

13:54

how the left took over our civilization,

13:57

then you're just being mesmerized constantly.

13:59

by the latest flashing light of

14:02

atrocity on X, you know, on

14:04

formerly Twitter. Oh, you know, they're

14:06

saying men can be women. They're flooding the

14:08

country with illegals. They're doing this, they're doing

14:10

that. All true, all bad. But if

14:13

you don't talk about the culture, the

14:15

culture is a vessel carrying the

14:17

greater truth of the civilization that

14:19

you live in beyond the moment.

14:22

It teaches you history, it teaches

14:24

you what other people feel like.

14:27

It gives you something in your mind so

14:29

you can start to imagine where the right

14:31

lies, where morality lies. You know, when Claudine

14:33

Gay resigned at Harvard, as president of Harvard,

14:35

and I'll talk about that in a minute,

14:38

I posted on X that her resignation letter,

14:40

she was accused of plagiarism, and I posted

14:42

on X that her resignation letter said, it's a far, far

14:45

better thing I do than I have ever done. It's a

14:47

far, far better rest I go to than I have ever

14:49

known. Of course, it was a joke about

14:51

the tale of two cities. That is

14:53

one of the most famous lines in

14:56

all of British literature, in all of

14:58

English language literature. It's probably up there

15:00

with to be or not to be.

15:03

And people just didn't know what I was talking,

15:05

not everybody, but some people didn't know what I

15:07

was talking about. And if you haven't read Tale

15:09

of Two Cities or something like it, you don't

15:11

realize that the French Revolution was not just full

15:14

of atrocities by the revolutionaries. It

15:17

was also preceded by oppression and

15:19

starvation by the king and by

15:21

the monarchs there. There's no good

15:23

side and bad side. Things went

15:26

bad and gave the revolutionaries excuses

15:28

to do what they did, just like you should

15:30

read Wild Swans, a wonderful, wonderful book by, I

15:33

don't know how to pronounce her name, Yum Chang,

15:35

I think which shows you that before there was

15:37

Mao and his mass murder of 65 million

15:40

people, there was corruption and oppression there. These are

15:42

the things that teach you how to see the

15:44

world in three dimensions. And these people, and

15:46

remember, these are our college students at elite

15:49

universities. This is not the ordinary guy whose

15:51

job it just is to do his job.

15:54

People who are supposed to be being taught to

15:56

think have none of this inside

15:58

their heads, so they have no way. to

16:00

think this is a real triumph of

16:03

the left over the minds of Americans

16:05

and especially young Americans. So

16:08

I'm going to talk about something that is historical

16:10

in the sense that it happened within my lifetime.

16:12

And I've talked about it many, many times before

16:15

and how important it is, but it's to give

16:17

you a sense of what I think this moment

16:19

is really about. Yesterday, I believe

16:21

it was, was the 59th

16:23

anniversary of what is called

16:25

the Great Society. That's the

16:27

series of welfare

16:29

state programs put into place

16:32

by Lyndon Baines Johnson after

16:34

the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I always

16:36

hear young people say, well, you know, old

16:39

man, you boomer, we don't care where JFK

16:41

was when he was, you know, we don't

16:43

care where you were when JFK was assassinated.

16:45

Fine. But this is something that

16:47

happened after he was assassinated that probably wouldn't have happened had he

16:49

not been. This incredible series

16:52

of welfare programs that were

16:54

supposed to bring equity

16:56

to our financial life and

16:58

especially supposed to help poor

17:00

blacks become equal with

17:03

the, with white society was supposed

17:05

to bring them after the Jim Crow era,

17:07

supposed to bring them up and make them

17:09

equitable. Well, in

17:12

fact, it, they didn't work. They

17:14

didn't work. You know, my favorite writer at the Wall

17:16

Street Journal is this guy Barton Swame, and he was

17:18

writing about this. And this is how I know a

17:20

writer. I've been talking about the great society and its

17:23

failure for at least 10, maybe 15 years.

17:26

When I see a writer who 10 or 15 years after

17:28

I started talking about something catches up with me, I know

17:30

I'm dealing with one of the second smartest people in America.

17:34

I just said that to annoy my wife. But

17:36

but no, I mean, this is, this

17:39

is really important. He talks about the

17:41

fact that the black poverty rate was

17:43

declining dramatically from 1940 to

17:45

1960. And then

17:47

after the great society, it

17:50

stopped the welfare state failed.

17:53

The great society failed all those programs

17:55

that were put in place that Donald

17:57

Trump has promised not to cut. They

17:59

failed. And not only did they stop

18:02

the progress of blacks into the middle

18:04

class, they destroyed the black family by

18:06

subsidizing single motherhood while the feminists sat

18:09

by and said, well, who cares? A

18:11

woman needs a man like a fish

18:13

needs a bicycle because they were socialists

18:15

too. It failed. It hurt

18:17

black people. It enslaved the poor

18:19

to government largesse. But

18:22

at the same time, it

18:24

created its own economy that

18:26

uplifted the deep state,

18:29

Barack bureaucrats, and the Democrats who had

18:31

this money to both give out to

18:33

their voters and to promise their voters

18:35

they would increase. There was another article

18:37

in the Wall Street Journal by Alyssa

18:39

Finley talks about the

18:42

welfare industrial state. There's

18:44

new unemployment numbers came

18:46

out, but unemployment rate is still pretty good. It's around

18:49

3.7%. But

18:51

a growing welfare industrial

18:53

complex beneath the seemingly strong

18:55

labor markets, as Alyssa Finley,

18:58

government social assistance and healthcare account

19:00

for 56% of the 2.8 million

19:03

net new jobs

19:07

over the past year. And for nearly all

19:09

gains in blue states such as New York

19:11

and Illinois. If you get rid of

19:13

the welfare state, which has ruined the

19:15

lives of black people, ruined the neighborhoods,

19:18

the families of black

19:20

people, increased the crime rate. People

19:22

weren't always a criminal class, which so

19:24

many of them are right now.

19:26

This was created by policy. It was created

19:28

by policy put into place 59, 60

19:31

years ago this week. And

19:35

yet at the same time, the people

19:37

who depend on that money are addicted

19:40

to it. And the people who depend

19:42

on doling out that money and those

19:44

jobs, because patronage is where political power

19:46

comes from, depend on it. So the

19:48

entire blue economy is supported by a

19:50

failed system of stealing from makers to

19:53

give to takers. And the people who are taking

19:55

that money are addicted to it. And the people

19:57

who have the power to build it out. don't

20:00

want to give it up. Power is

20:02

addictive. Money is addictive. And so when you say

20:04

get rid of the Great Society, because it has

20:06

failed, what do they say to you? We all

20:09

know. They say you're a racist.

20:12

And you say, well, no, the police arrest black

20:14

people because of high crime, and Harvard doesn't let

20:16

black people in because their grades aren't good. Well,

20:18

you're a racist. Well, the police have to be

20:21

defunded. You have to be shut up. You have

20:23

to be taken off social media. We have to

20:25

make white people dumber. We have to stop giving

20:27

them special classes because otherwise black people are just

20:29

so this is what they're thinking. Black

20:31

people are just so naturally dumb. They can't keep

20:34

up instead of saying, oh, our policies

20:36

that have made us rich and them

20:38

poor that have made us secure and

20:41

powerful while it has destroyed their families.

20:43

Those policies have to be taken away. And

20:45

if you say, well, what about Jews? People

20:48

hated Jews and they did well. Oh, those

20:50

Jews, they're really white and they're worse than

20:52

white because they're Jews, you know. And

20:54

what's hilarious is there are people on the right,

20:56

these Gropers who are like centipedes

20:58

who come out from under the rock. Anytime you

21:00

say, oh, there's a Jew, you know,

21:03

they're actually on the side of the left.

21:05

Everybody can get together and hate the Jews.

21:07

You know, Tucker Carlson is playing into this. I really hate

21:10

to say this because I like Tucker, but I don't

21:12

know what he's doing now. He was

21:14

attacking Ben Shapiro, who's not caring

21:16

about America. And I know people are going

21:18

to say, oh, well, you're friends with Ben

21:20

and he runs this institution that

21:22

you work for and all this stuff. Really

21:25

if anybody who knows me knows, I could care

21:28

less. Ben knows because Ben knows what I'll say

21:30

to his face. You

21:32

know, I care about, I'm an artist, so

21:34

I care about the arts. So I talk about the arts

21:36

all the time. Ben is an Orthodox Jew, so he talks

21:38

about the Jews a lot. But these are important subjects. So

21:40

we give you with a daily wire different aspects of the

21:42

same situation. That's where you

21:44

get a three-dimensional point

21:47

of view. It's funny, all of this stuff

21:49

is funny coming from Catholics who were routinely

21:51

accused of dual loyalty to the Vatican and

21:54

not being faithful to America. Anyway,

21:57

anyway, my point is this. My point is

21:59

this. that this system of charity

22:01

has failed for everybody, but this people

22:03

who dole it out and those people

22:05

who are now addicted to it, even

22:07

though it has destroyed their families. This

22:10

is a failure of the West's trajectory

22:12

for the last 60 years. You know,

22:15

we talk a lot, the right is

22:17

worried about globalization. They're always talking about

22:19

Davos and they're gonna try to globalize

22:21

and they're, and there's truth to that.

22:24

I'm not saying there's not, but that

22:26

globalization is really Western hegemony in disguise.

22:28

What they're really talking about is this

22:30

leftist idea of being imposed on the

22:33

entire world, because they can't

22:35

admit that it failed. It failed

22:37

utterly. There's nothing good about it. There

22:39

is nothing good about the great society.

22:41

It was an utter, utter failure. This

22:43

redistribution of wealth always does the same

22:45

thing. It bleeds the middle class. It

22:48

destroys the morality of the people. It

22:50

destroys the independence of the people. And

22:52

I'm not saying there should be no

22:54

welfare state, but the great society is

22:57

great. This failed ethos, what they keep

22:59

doing is they keep moving the goalpost.

23:01

They say, well, it can't be the

23:03

welfare that's making black people, destroying black

23:05

people's family. It must be the racism. Well, now

23:07

we have to have equity where if you don't

23:10

hire three black people, when you hire three white

23:12

people, you gotta do that because we can't say

23:14

this failed because my job depends on it not

23:16

having failed. It is all about this

23:18

failure. And you know, this is something that happens

23:20

in your personal life too. This is how the

23:22

devil gets you, right? You have an abortion where

23:25

you trans your kid and he has an operation

23:27

that you can't take back. And you start to

23:29

realize this is wrong, but you can't face what

23:31

you've done. There's no way to make it right.

23:33

So you can't face the shame and the guilt

23:36

that you feel. So you have to

23:38

keep saying, no, it's great. Shout your

23:40

abortion. Anybody who says I shouldn't trans

23:42

my kid is transphobic. It's the same

23:44

thing, you know, with the Democrats, they

23:46

see cops getting into tangles with black

23:48

people because the black communities

23:51

are so high crime that when the police

23:54

tangle with people, there's going

23:56

to be a lot of black people that they tangle

23:58

with. They blame the cops. They blame the cops. They

24:00

let people burn down cities. They say,

24:02

we've got to change everything. Instead of

24:04

saying we've got to change the one

24:06

thing that took the fathers out of

24:08

the houses of black families and made

24:10

those families conducive to more crime because

24:13

families without fathers are in fact more

24:15

likely to produce children who are criminals. So,

24:18

you know, that's how the devil gets you. You

24:20

have to pretend you're glad you castrated your son.

24:22

You have to shout your abortion. You have to

24:25

say, no, no, no, anybody who attacks the great

24:27

society is clearly a racist and anybody who shows

24:29

up on time for work, anybody who works hard,

24:31

anybody who wakes up early, anybody who does all

24:33

the things that work and that make people productive,

24:35

they've got to stop because that's white privilege, my

24:38

friend. That is, you know, this kind of privilege.

24:40

And what we're looking at right this minute is

24:42

the complete, you know, instead of what you've got

24:44

to say, we all have to say

24:46

when we do things along because we've all done things

24:48

that are wrong and can't be fixed, you have

24:50

to say, merciful God, forgive me so that I

24:53

can move on and do something else. This

24:55

is the collapse. What we're looking at right this minute,

24:57

right now in front of you, even though, you know,

25:00

the election is endowed, even though the culture

25:03

is still strongly dominated by the left,

25:05

we are watching the failure of

25:08

the great society for everyone except

25:10

those people who profited off it. And

25:13

those are the people who are drenched in the

25:16

blood of the unborn and the destruction of black

25:18

families and the ruined happiness of women and children,

25:21

you know, but they have power and money to show

25:23

for that and they don't want to let go. So

25:25

the question before us, as we enter 2024 and

25:28

as this election is gonna tell the tale and as

25:30

many other things are gonna tell the tale as I'll

25:32

talk about in a moment, the question we're facing is

25:34

twofold. Can we rest

25:37

power from these failures without

25:39

violence? Because folks, I do not think the republic

25:41

will survive a civil war. I hear people say,

25:43

well, we have to get our guns and I

25:46

think, you know, no, you're gonna

25:48

have to find a better way to win. You're gonna

25:50

have to find a better way to win because the

25:52

republic will not be there when the smoke clears and

25:54

I don't think the world will survive a world war,

25:56

a world war three. I think that will set us

25:58

back so far that we. We will never reestablish

26:01

the country that we're trying to reestablish.

26:04

Can we admit our own errors and

26:06

our own bigotry and our own corruption

26:09

and come up with new, fresh, bright

26:11

ideas that will make America great

26:13

again? Beams

26:16

Dream Powder. I love this stuff. I tried

26:19

26:21

for me. I slipped into the sweet

embrace of rest and woke up without

26:49

the grogginess that often accompanies other sleep

26:52

remedies. Sleep is the foundation of our

26:54

mental and physical health. You must have

28:00

in the same way, Joe Biden

28:03

is the perfect novelistic representation of

28:05

the failure of the Great Society

28:07

and this cycle of

28:09

Western civilization, this

28:12

iteration of Western liberal ideas,

28:15

the resignation of Claudine Gay

28:17

from the Harvard presidency is

28:19

a perfect novelistic narrative

28:23

telling the story of the

28:27

endgame of the Great Society. DEI,

28:29

right? DEI, one of the stupidest

28:31

ideas, racial and sexual bigotry made

28:34

into a program, hate on white

28:36

men, cut white men down

28:38

if they're achieving too much and Jews certainly

28:41

elevate anybody by the color

28:43

of his skin or by

28:45

gender or by some fantastic

28:48

idea of oppression. She

28:51

is the emanation of that. She's

28:53

a mediocrity. She rose because

28:55

of her skin color and her politics. The

28:58

only way she's not a mediocrity is that

29:01

she gathered power around

29:03

that DEI. She

29:05

mobilized DEI for

29:08

her use to bully people

29:10

and to get rid of anybody

29:12

who objected to the garbage she

29:14

was selling. And I just want

29:16

to point out that she was

29:18

backed even at the end, even

29:20

after all her wrongdoing was exposed,

29:22

she was backed by the sinister

29:24

behind the scenes anti-American, anti-colonial, Jew-hating

29:26

puppet master Barack Obama or whoever

29:28

Barack Obama represents. Claudine

29:32

Gay used her power to demame

29:34

any place that was named after

29:37

anyone who was perceived to

29:39

require racial reckoning. These are her

29:41

words. And who was perceived to

29:44

require payback for

29:46

racial sins of the past. She built

29:49

this DEI bureaucracy that she used to

29:51

punish and slander and ruin or damage

29:53

the careers of people who disagreed with

29:55

her. And she was a plagiarist as

29:58

Chris Rufo of the Manhattan Institute. proved

30:00

beyond a shadow of a doubt. Here

30:04

is a lie under Gays

30:06

leadership said Abby Loeb, a

30:08

theoretical physicist in Harvard's Department

30:10

of Astronomy, the mandate

30:12

of the administrative state of the university

30:14

continued to expand and shift from serving

30:16

faculty to monitoring them. This is just

30:19

a physicist who's just talking about the

30:21

culture at Harvard. He

30:23

said the message was don't deviate

30:25

from what they find to be

30:27

appropriate. It became more of a

30:29

police organization and she had to

30:31

resign because of Chris's work and

30:34

because donors, especially this hedge fund guy

30:36

Bill Ackman, they threatened to withhold a

30:38

billion dollars if they didn't get rid

30:40

of her and this was because her

30:43

testimony in Congress before Elise Stefanik

30:45

where she couldn't gather the wherewithal

30:47

to say it might be a

30:49

bad idea to suggest the slaughter

30:51

of Jews. They got

30:53

rid of her but they're still paying her

30:56

her $900,000 salary. She'll

30:58

see still on staff. She's

31:00

not the presidency and they're

31:02

just the screaming

31:04

from the left about the racism.

31:06

The stuff they are saying about

31:08

Chris Rufo is hilarious. One guy

31:11

accused him of being a Russian

31:13

spy. He got his degree from

31:15

Harvard from a outward

31:17

school that is commissioned to give

31:19

Harvard degrees and they said well

31:21

that's not a real Harvard degree.

31:23

My favorite one. This is the

31:25

other thing. They can't say the

31:27

word plagiarism. They say why are

31:30

you saying plagiarism? Why is plagiarism

31:32

so bad? Such an ugly black

31:34

male. It's an ugly word. Plagiarism, it's an

31:36

ugly word. Let's call it unacknowledged

31:38

semiositude. You know, call it unescribed

31:40

similarism. The woman was a plagiarist.

31:43

It comes from a Latin word

31:45

meaning to kidnap. It's a serious

31:48

thing for an intellectual to do

31:50

to steal other people's ideas not

31:52

once, not by accident, but repeatedly,

31:55

provably. So they come after Chris

31:57

Rufo and my favorite thing they

31:59

say. is the AP accused him, he said,

32:01

I got a scalp. You

32:06

know, this is a routine thing that people say

32:08

in politics, I got a scalp. So the AP

32:11

said it was as if

32:13

clotting gay were a trophy of violence

32:15

in the associate press,

32:17

invoking a gruesome practice taken up

32:19

by white colonists who sought to

32:21

eradicate Native Americans and also used

32:23

by some tribes against their enemies,

32:25

which is where the colonists learned

32:27

it. They learned to fight the

32:30

way the Indians fight by scalping

32:32

people. So now Chris Rufo is

32:34

an Indian. They're basically accusing him of being

32:36

a savage. You know, this is the associated

32:39

press sent out somebody to deal with Chris

32:41

Rufo. This is what happened, this is scene

32:44

clip five. Why don't you finish

32:46

the job? What

32:49

good did that do you? I

32:59

watched you preach none. But what's

33:01

that commence, Belize? Ain't got

33:03

no eyes, he can't enter the spirit land.

33:05

Has to wander forever between the winds. And

33:08

thank God AP shout out Chris

33:10

Rufo's eyes. Now he's a wander

33:12

forever between the winds. Here's the

33:14

important thing about Chris Rufo, for

33:17

real, he is one of the

33:19

most civil, polite, considered,

33:23

thoughtful, hardworking people I

33:26

know. He got her because his

33:28

reporting was excellent and irrefutable. That's

33:30

why the Times put out an

33:32

op-ed saying she has to go.

33:34

That's why finally anybody with any

33:36

journalistic conscience at all had to

33:38

say, you know, he's got a

33:40

point because he did the work,

33:42

he got it done. He had

33:44

the kind of knowledge

33:46

and insight and information that

33:49

made it possible for him to act with

33:52

style, with class, with politeness. You

33:55

know, aggression, rudeness, are the

33:57

tools of people who are secretly

33:59

afraid. because they haven't got the

34:01

goods. Rufo gets the goods and he

34:03

remains calm always. You can watch him

34:06

on YouTube. He remains calm, he remains

34:08

polite, he remains civil. Another guy is

34:10

good at this, by the way, Vivek

34:13

Ramaswami. He just dissected

34:15

a Washington Post reporter. He got an

34:17

endorsement from Steve King, the former Iowa

34:20

Congressman who was attacked by the press

34:22

as being a white supremacist. And

34:24

Vivek just said, you know, screw the press.

34:27

Steve King is a good guy. He's not in

34:29

Congress anymore. And the Washington Post

34:31

reporter asks him to reject white supremacy

34:33

because whatever any Republican says,

34:36

all Republicans are responsible for

34:38

and Vivek politely, but certainly

34:40

and knowledgeably takes her apart.

34:42

This cut forth. Stop

34:44

picking on this farce of some figment

34:46

that exists at some infinitesimally

34:49

small fringe of the American public today to

34:51

open our eyes to the actual real threats

34:53

that we face. And I think

34:55

that it's, frankly, questions and framings like that that

34:57

has caused the American public to lose all trust

35:00

in the mainstream media. I'm sorry to say for

35:02

good reason. I'm

35:05

not, I'm not going to recite some catechism

35:07

for you. I'm against vicious racial discrimination in

35:09

this country. So I'm not pledging allegiance to

35:11

your new religion of modern wokeism, which actually

35:14

fits the test. I'm not

35:16

going to bend the knee to your religion. I'm sorry. I'm

35:18

not asking you to bend the knee to mine and I'm not going to

35:20

bend the knee to yours. But do I condemn vicious

35:22

racial discrimination? Yes, I do. Am I going to play

35:24

your silly game of gotcha? No, I'm not. And frankly,

35:26

this is why people have lost trust. And I know

35:28

you're going to go print the headline tomorrow. I already

35:30

know this. We already know how your

35:32

game works. The Vaykramaswamy refuses to condemn white supremacy because

35:34

you asked a stupid question. The reality is I

35:37

condemn vicious racial discrimination in this country. But

35:39

the kind of vicious and systematic racial discrimination

35:41

we see today is discrimination on

35:44

the basis of race in a very different direction. See,

35:47

he did this with another Ruapo reporter and

35:49

the woman just fell absolutely apart because he

35:51

was taking away her little crutch of fantasy.

35:53

But this is why I think

35:56

Donald Trump is going to be the nominee for the

35:58

Republicans. reasons for that and

36:00

I'll talk about it in a minute. I think

36:03

it's a mistake. I think Donald Trump made Vivek

36:05

Ramaswamy and Chris Rufo to a degree possible. He's

36:07

the one who dragged these

36:11

journalists out from behind their pretense

36:13

of being journalists and showed them

36:16

for the partisan corporate hacks they

36:18

are. And it's one of

36:20

the worst, Trump was right, they're the enemy

36:22

of the people. But he couldn't

36:24

do it because of his rudeness, because

36:27

of his lack of the kind

36:29

of knowledge that Ramaswamy has and that Chris Rufo

36:31

has. He couldn't do it in such a way

36:33

that he convinced the people who hate him that

36:35

he was right. He just couldn't do it. He didn't have

36:37

what it takes to do it. And I don't think he

36:40

has what it takes. I don't think he has the organizational

36:42

ability. I don't think he has the knowledge. I don't think

36:44

he has the actual inner

36:46

core to do

36:49

the thing to win for conservatives.

36:53

I don't think he is a conservative and I think

36:55

the only reason he was a conservative was before, was

36:57

because the left gave him nowhere to go on the

36:59

left. They hated him so much. So he went to

37:02

the right. But now he's talking about how the FBI,

37:04

how the headquarters should get them, great spectacular headquarters in

37:06

Washington when they obviously need to be gutted

37:09

and entirely reformed. He talks

37:11

about how he wants transgender

37:13

people. He doesn't they can

37:16

use the ladies

37:18

room even if they're not ladies. The

37:21

thing about Trump and the reason I think he's going to win, and

37:24

it's not because Ron DeSantis has run a bad

37:26

campaign his campaign has been chaotic but it's

37:28

gotten much much better. It's

37:31

not that people like Trump. They want

37:33

Trump. The base wants Trump and they

37:35

want him because he's not really a

37:37

philosophy. He's a feeling. The thing about

37:39

the people, you know, is that

37:41

this should get

37:45

me in trouble. They kind of like talking to

37:47

women, you know, and women explain things to you.

37:49

You don't listen to their reasoning because that way

37:51

madness lies. You listen to what they're actually trying

37:53

to communicate to you. And when the people send

37:55

Donald Trump, it's not because of what he's saying.

37:57

It's because of the way he acts and the

37:59

fact that they feel dissed, they

38:02

feel excluded, they feel undermined, rightly

38:04

so, and he's their way of saying, f

38:06

you. You know, you don't like it, here's

38:08

Donald Trump, and I hope you like it.

38:10

You know, and I think that that's, you

38:12

know, populism for you. And the hatred of

38:15

Trump on the intellectual right, by the way,

38:17

is a reaction to their failure, the failure

38:19

of the Bushes and the failure of the

38:21

Neocons and the Ein Renders who didn't conserve

38:23

a single damn thing and just patted themselves

38:25

on the back for being virtuous and right,

38:27

just like the left did. They patted themselves

38:29

on the back even while they failed. Trump

38:31

broke the glass. I don't think he has

38:33

the organizational political mind to finish

38:35

the job as we need it to be finished. So

38:38

this is what I mean when I say there's going to be a transition, but

38:40

it may not be a transition to

38:42

the right because the people, even when

38:45

they're irrational, get the final word. Here

38:49

is a resolution that's easy to keep

38:51

and delivers immediately on its promise. With

40:24

40:27

40:29

are no easy clues.

40:31

Chapter three, we're all going to die. I

40:33

just want to, I actually want to talk about the fact that

40:35

we're all going to die very briefly because we're taking stock of

40:38

what's in store for 24. And

40:41

war is a big thing. You know, foreign

40:43

policy is a reality check. You want elections

40:45

to be a reality check, but there's so

40:47

many things that go into them and because

40:49

of populism is kind of irrational, even though

40:51

it has much good things, many good things

40:53

to say. It doesn't, our

40:56

elections haven't been the reality check that they should

40:58

be. The choices are too

41:00

limited, but war and

41:02

foreign policy and people,

41:04

countries that you don't control acting in ways

41:07

that you don't like, it's a

41:09

sign that you're doing something wrong because you've

41:11

become weak. Barack

41:13

Obama, the sinister puppet master who hates America

41:15

and is an anti-colonial and a Jew hater,

41:18

he meant to strengthen Iran. He

41:20

did it on purpose. The federal

41:22

government is now suing Texas to

41:24

keep them from deporting illegals because

41:26

they want the border open.

41:29

I saw Alejandro Mayorkas on Brett Baier's show

41:31

the other day. He can't give a straight

41:33

answer to anything. He just keeps lying and

41:35

lying and lying about the situation at the

41:37

border, which is uniquely bad. But

41:40

this is a strategy to weaken America.

41:43

Globalism is a strategy to weaken

41:45

America, but to continue this welfare

41:47

state, this deep state that grows

41:50

out of the great society that

41:52

has made the powerful people powerful.

41:54

This is why Ron Johnson from

41:57

Wisconsin, he was talking About the fact

41:59

that the people. Who are in power

42:01

are not Americans. They're actually supporting something

42:03

else is Cut Six. You're

42:05

asked to develop a strategy to

42:07

strive is priceless. You'd. Be hard

42:09

pressed some of the better game plan

42:12

the what Biden is his misery Supplements.

42:14

He. Opened borders. The masses just

42:16

spending spark some for your high

42:18

inflation warren fossil fuels. The embarrassing

42:20

a dangerous surrender in Afghanistan was

42:23

is important. Our enemies is Ron

42:25

China and Russia and Iran and

42:27

North Korea together Now they're cooperating

42:29

of this is dangerous road because

42:32

of American which is caused by

42:34

the division that the radical left

42:36

is pushing on America. To.

42:38

The save their power while

42:40

their ideas sale. right? They

42:43

have to weaken American basically brought his

42:45

out so that basis plans to go

42:47

with both people in Davos Globalists will

42:49

be. You. Know of

42:51

responsible for the voters. Just the with

42:54

European Union is responsible for the nation's

42:56

Now the thing is America becomes week.

42:58

The evil doers of the world's not

43:00

reacting just like Hitler went into Czechoslovakia

43:03

because he knew the great Powers were

43:05

afraid of war or is unheard Columnist

43:07

Heiress Sonos says this this time the

43:09

evil doers are afraid to come out

43:12

us full throttle like Hitler did when

43:14

he Americans had. Some of the Gemini

43:16

has been challenge obliquely as it's rivals

43:18

nibbles at the edges of empire targeting.

43:21

Weaker client states in the confidence

43:23

that the United States now possesses

43:25

neither the logistical capacity nor the

43:27

domestic political stability necessary to impose

43:29

his order on the world. So

43:31

we that's the war in Ukraine,

43:33

stalled, their Ukrainian offensive failed. We

43:35

can't keep supporting them forever or

43:37

food and is hinting he might

43:39

make peace, but he'll make a

43:41

for territories. Israel is so traumatized

43:43

by the business fish as far

43:45

as of October Seventh, that they

43:47

now have essentially no eternal internal

43:49

politics except for killing Hamas. Us

43:52

wants them to limit the scope of they

43:54

are fighting but I don't know if they

43:56

will and I don't know if we can

43:58

make them do it either. This decision. To

44:01

go to war, or fund war,

44:03

or support somebody else's war is always

44:05

a prediction of what's going to happen

44:07

in the future, right? It always means

44:09

that you're saying, if

44:11

Russia wins, this will happen, so we have to stop

44:13

them. If Israel continues or stops,

44:15

this will happen, so we have to stop them

44:18

or help them. And we don't know what's going

44:20

to happen in the future. It's always a guess.

44:22

And so the people who sound very self-certain are

44:24

lying. They're fools because we don't know. It's always

44:26

feeling your way with very dangerous things like soldiers'

44:28

lives at risk. Both

44:30

into my mind, neoconservatism that just wants

44:33

to go to war everywhere, and isolationism

44:36

that just says, what do we care if

44:38

Ukraine falls under? They're not our country, not

44:40

America. Both

44:42

neoconservatism and isolationism are mistakes,

44:44

and each case has to

44:46

be taken on its own. What can we do? What

44:49

should we do? What is our interest

44:51

in this? What does the future hold?

44:53

That's the right thing to do. And I think

44:55

the thing is, the state that

44:57

we're in, we have to admit this. And

44:59

so this is in this way, I side

45:01

with the isolationists a little bit, is

45:04

I think before we can do

45:07

anything else, we have to rebuild our country.

45:09

We're so far in debt. Our military is

45:11

decaying. Our leaders

45:13

are anti-American and have hurt America

45:15

and have damaged America throughout

45:17

the world. I think Ukraine is finished. I

45:20

think Ukraine is finished. I don't think we can do any

45:22

more than we've done. I think we have

45:24

an interest on focusing Israel on the

45:26

destruction of Hamas, which must be, but we

45:28

can't let them get to the point where

45:31

they start a war with Iran. And

45:33

these are very complicated things. But just like

45:36

the Soviet Union, after their revolution

45:38

pulled in before they expanded to

45:40

create an empire, and just like

45:42

the French after their revolution pulled

45:44

in before they sent Napoleon out

45:46

to conquer the world, I think

45:48

this is time for America, because

45:50

this failure of liberal policies,

45:52

it's time for us to pull in, reconstruct

45:54

ourselves, get our American, make America great again,

45:56

and then we can form the world. the

45:58

empire that we have to form to keep

46:00

America safe. And, you know, Biden had some

46:03

very interesting thoughts about this. They asked him

46:05

about this, and this is what he said

46:07

was cut to. Ice cream, chocolate

46:09

chip ice cream. So yeah. Have

46:11

you ever told a friend? Oh, I'm fine.

46:14

When you really felt. Just

46:16

so overwhelmed. Or sent a

46:19

text. Can't sleep. Are

46:21

you a little old? When you couldn't find

46:23

the words to say. I'm scared

46:25

to be alone with my thoughts right now.

46:28

Then this is your sign to reach out to the

46:30

988 lifeline for

46:32

24 seven free confidential support. You don't

46:35

have to hide how you feel. Text,

46:38

call or chat anytime. We're

46:42

all gonna die. Final

46:49

chapter, calendar girls and trad

46:51

wives. I want to finish

46:55

this look at what I think 2024 holds in

46:57

store or some of what it holds in store by

46:59

looking at the culture because I think the culture always

47:02

reflects what's happening. And what's happening is

47:04

the left has failed.

47:07

It's this, the extraordinary absurdity of their

47:10

defense of their policies, which have so

47:12

badly failed has made them a laughing

47:14

stock in the culture. But that doesn't

47:17

mean the right can

47:19

marshal what it needs to strike back. So

47:21

I saw these two comedy specials on Netflix,

47:24

Ricky Gervais and Dave Chappelle. These are both

47:26

people that I like very much. I

47:28

find them both charming. I find them very

47:31

talented. And sometimes I find them hilarious, but

47:33

these are really bad specials,

47:35

both of them. And they're both the exact

47:37

same show. They're both the exact same show.

47:40

They're not funny. They're self aggrandizing.

47:43

And they both, like I said, they both did exactly the

47:45

same thing. But basically the last time

47:47

they were out, they did a lot of trans

47:49

jokes and that got them under fire and that

47:51

elevated them to cultural icons. And

47:54

then they said, Well, we

47:56

want to come back and do something else that makes

47:58

us seem relevant. And So they did., Bunch of

48:00

asked what we used to call sick jokes,

48:02

jokes about cripples and sick kids and ah

48:04

the when I was a kid. Seriously, when

48:06

I was like ten thirteen year olds by

48:08

a book of sick jokes like that would

48:10

be like scan tommy come out to play

48:12

baseball. Well you know the time is a

48:14

quadriplegic and the answer's yes we wanted to

48:16

use in the second base. You know those

48:19

were sick jokes and we'd giggle. It was

48:21

funny. But. These these jokes

48:23

you know and I'm not offended by was

48:25

six Uma response but I just and find

48:27

them funny or Chappelle the high moment of

48:30

Chappelle. Show was when he

48:32

told the story about performing at the Hollywood

48:34

Bowl and a guy attacked him wielding a

48:36

nice and all of these backstage celebrities jumped

48:38

on the attackers beat him up on stage.

48:41

Still is what he said that seven. He.

48:43

Wouldn't have a I. Mean how

48:45

was on a regular job detail but it

48:48

was like one am able to. Survive

48:52

with and I'm sitting up there china think

48:54

that would say I'm a month and I'm

48:56

and I'm told me of all people can't

48:59

bring it is a nice little Mark Harmon

49:01

said know what of old people are world's

49:03

first one. Was. From That

49:05

States walks up to me in

49:07

front of twenty sells. Supplies

49:11

out of my name's Emma. The

49:13

crowd goes. Was

49:16

that will

49:18

mess? So The

49:20

Funniest Joke and Dave Chappelle show

49:23

with Chris Rock's. But

49:25

the. Thing is and then they go

49:27

on Ios Chappelle talks about filling his

49:29

dreams of becoming a famous comedian was

49:31

he obviously has done surpassed. You know

49:34

Ricky Gervais sox about his love animals

49:36

and is raising funds for animals. Most

49:38

of my slut who cares know this

49:40

is self importance or that this shows

49:42

that you instead of making me laugh

49:45

so the left comes into the taxman.

49:47

The attacks were valid in the sense

49:49

that they the show was funny but

49:51

they consider not funny like they used

49:53

to be expected like I'm. Before either.

49:57

And. They kept saying well, they're trying to stay relevant. That's

49:59

right for them. It's hard for them to stay

50:01

relevant. Is. Because they've won. Because.

50:04

The. Left is a laughingstock because political correctness

50:06

and woken us and all the shut

50:08

up don't say I use my right

50:10

pronouns is all ridiculous and people of

50:12

laughing added in. Only thing protecting it's

50:15

is the F B I reading Parents

50:17

Rio investigating parents as terrorists. You're not

50:19

going to win that way. Not an

50:21

American, not in the West. Ultimately this

50:23

is going to collapse in this class

50:25

and. Even even so, even though

50:27

these hot the specials were particularly funny, we

50:29

know Chappelle is funny, we know your bases

50:31

when it'll come back in will be funny

50:33

against and they're both. So. Much

50:35

cooler than their critics. This is the key

50:37

thing this is. the Prestige thinks they're both

50:39

with any luck. Jeremy. Boring.

50:41

who missed lady bowlers is now because he

50:44

may that cooler than his critics. I mean

50:46

look at the guy his name is literally

50:48

warrants this cigar. Say this is a lot.

50:50

I mean I'm sorry is that he's a

50:53

god kings but he's a dweeb right? And

50:56

he's literally now cooler than anybody unless

50:58

I'm a hundred and seventy two years

51:01

old. and I'm for worse than anybody

51:03

on the left because they begin schools

51:05

and humorless and stuff they say is

51:07

all garbage And that doesn't make any

51:09

of us Chappelle good. Interface you know

51:12

Jeremy Me: it doesn't make any was

51:14

Winston Churchill is just a cool folks

51:16

laugh at stupid stuff and they're not

51:18

afraid. That's what you do and that

51:20

minutes and select new stuff with the

51:22

guys my age as cooler than the

51:24

guy writing the Tulsa up in your

51:27

column of the New York Times. That

51:29

is bad news for them and is

51:31

just through and they're really getting desperate.

51:33

Now I mean the snow. Just snow.

51:35

Kathleen Kennedy hasn't destroyed enough famous franchises

51:37

sissies now given the new Star Wars

51:40

films to Canadian. Feminists documentary must. Three

51:42

Strikes is Canadian. She's feminists. his documentaries

51:44

bank you're out of there. But no,

51:46

she's going to direct the new Star

51:48

Wars film in. This is her talking

51:50

about her point of view. correct? It.

51:52

Is important to be able to

51:54

look into the eyes of a

51:56

man and six. I am here

51:58

and recognize that. And recognize

52:01

that I am working to bring something

52:03

that makes you uncomfortable and it should

52:05

make you uncomfortable because you need to

52:07

change your attitude. And it's only when

52:10

you're uncomfortable when you're sixty, when you

52:12

have to last difficult conversations that you

52:14

will perhaps look at yourself in the

52:16

mirror us and not like some success

52:19

and then same. Maybe there's something wrong

52:21

with the way I think maybe there

52:23

is anything wrong with the way I

52:26

am. Addressing this issue.

52:28

Though to be fair to her sustenance

52:30

to the men this is deals with

52:32

maybe committee honor killings and must you

52:34

saying that he shouldn't have a point

52:36

of view but that's another to this

52:38

gonna make. A craft store was filmed.

52:41

You know it's. the thing is, this is

52:43

what they do we talk about on the

52:45

right overtime. One of the Christian movie find

52:47

the don't Preach to me it's one of

52:50

his conservative movie. fine but still a great

52:52

story that has conservative implications. Don't priest me.

52:54

All the left can do now is proof

52:56

you know. Over the holiday I was playing

52:58

board games with my grandson. It was a

53:01

universal Monsters. I was a big universal Masterson

53:03

as a kid so I went to Send

53:05

away for this universal Monsters board game. and

53:07

we're playing the games and or six characters

53:09

that you can play. And four of

53:12

them are women and I saw somebody

53:14

girls are playing this game on done

53:16

maybe maybe numb and know maybe one

53:18

maybe he looks that not that many

53:20

girls flaming universal monster games that now

53:22

he has to choose a female characters

53:24

are on and of milk houses golf.

53:26

at what point at what point does

53:28

occurred of these people that their jobs

53:30

to instruct us in morality instead of

53:32

making a fantastic Star Wars movie or

53:34

making a fun game for little boys

53:36

to play monsters with skyn a wind

53:38

that occurred of them with occurred to

53:40

them when all. their ideas failed as

53:42

they had nothing to say that was

53:45

real about humanity so basically we know

53:47

that their movies are over there comedy

53:49

is over there board games are over

53:52

and you know you can see that

53:54

people are no longer trying to live

53:56

up to their ideals is this new

53:59

trend called states Stay

54:01

at home girlfriends, okay? Stay

54:03

at home girlfriends. You know, I love

54:06

the fact that they scold us when we don't show

54:08

up to their movies. We don't go to Ghostbusters. You

54:10

know, you're not feminist. You know, like, screw you. I'm

54:13

giving you my money. You're supposed to entertain me. I'm

54:15

not supposed to sit here and listen to you. But

54:17

anyway, there's this new trend. Stay at home girlfriends. It's

54:19

not stay at home moms. They

54:21

don't have to take care of kids. They serve

54:23

their boyfriends. You know, they make dinner. They do

54:25

the laundry and all this stuff. But most of

54:28

their life is spent looking good and doing their

54:30

content. And really,

54:32

and they're stay at home wives who are

54:34

doing content too. And this is really a

54:36

return to factory settings for women where women

54:38

take care of the home, create the home,

54:41

which is the most important place in the

54:43

world for everybody. Your home is the most

54:45

important place. Create new life, which is the

54:47

most important job. Guide new life into becoming

54:49

human. Most important job. But they can also

54:51

have a financial

54:54

stake in the world by doing home industries.

54:56

It used to be making clothes. It used

54:59

to be making pottery, making furniture. Now it's

55:01

doing content and doing other things that you

55:03

can do on a computer, selling your cookies,

55:05

selling the things that you make on computer.

55:08

These are the things that these stay at

55:10

home people are doing. And the journalists, the

55:12

female journalists can't write about this and just

55:15

say, this is what it is. This is

55:17

who likes it. This is how it's going.

55:19

Here's maybe a critic's voice. They can't get

55:21

three paragraphs in before they keep saying, well,

55:24

financial dependence on your boyfriend or

55:26

your husband. Hey, believe me, I don't think

55:28

you should be financially dependent on your boyfriend.

55:30

Your husband is an entirely different thing and

55:32

you're going to be financially dependent on somebody.

55:34

So it might as well be somebody who

55:37

loves you, but they can't do it. They

55:39

just don't have the goods to accept

55:42

that people are going back to what is

55:44

human, what is, you know, what is good

55:46

in life. But just because

55:49

they've lost doesn't mean that we

55:51

have won. And I have to say, I was

55:53

watching this thing over the holidays, just embarrassing. And,

55:57

you know, there was this beer company, it's called ultra right.

56:00

out a calendar with pretty conservative girls on it.

56:02

And unfortunately they called it conservative dads, real women

56:04

of America. Now that's a bad thing because dads

56:06

should be hypocrites around their children. They should not

56:09

be looking at pictures of pretty girls. They should

56:11

not be hanging up calendars with pin-up girls on

56:13

them because they're dads. So they have to be

56:15

hypocrites. They should save that for the locker room

56:18

and they're talking to the other guys. But they

56:20

want to show their daughters and their sons a

56:22

little bit of an elevated person so they lie

56:24

a little bit. They pretend to be something a

56:27

little better than they are. I

56:29

have to settle these conservatives and I

56:31

have to include my lovable friend Jenna

56:34

Ellis and this is not a

56:36

personal attack. This is just a disagreement. She's

56:39

calling this softcore porn. These are

56:41

very non-pornographic pictures of pretty girls

56:44

who we identify with. Riley Gaines is

56:46

wearing a bikini because she's a swimmer.

56:48

Dana Lash was lovely no matter what

56:50

she's wearing. Josie the red-headed libertarian has

56:52

a very cute shot of her baking

56:54

a pie in the kitchen. And they're

56:57

pretty girls looking good and they're doing

56:59

feminine kind of conservative stuff. Then

57:01

like the look at pretty girls. The

57:04

GIs who beat the Nazis had

57:07

pictures in their wallets and on their

57:09

planes of Betty Grable who was famous

57:11

for her shapely legs and her nice

57:13

backside because it comforted them and it

57:16

inspired them and reminded them of why

57:18

they fight. And

57:20

the same thing with lady ballers. It comes out and

57:22

it's a sex comedy. There's some sex jokes in it

57:24

and people are saying, oh, why did you degrade yourself?

57:27

This is part of life. So

57:29

here's my final word about

57:32

the conservative culture that now has a chance

57:34

to build itself both in politics and

57:37

in the arts. In

57:39

order to build a new political and

57:41

artistic culture, you have to

57:43

ask yourself one question. What

57:46

is a human being? Matt

57:49

talks about what is a woman. Yes, what is a woman

57:51

but also what is a man? What is a person? The

57:54

final failure of the left is

57:57

not just their welfare programs, not just the

57:59

fact Sexual freedom has been a disaster,

58:02

not just the fact that drugs have been

58:04

addictive and destructive. It's materialism.

58:06

It's the idea that man is stuff,

58:08

that stuff can make him happy,

58:10

that pills can solve his depression, that

58:13

birth control changes the moral dynamic

58:16

of sexuality. My

58:20

right-wing friends, you know, my

58:22

right-wing friends who want everyone to suddenly

58:24

act instead like they're Oliver Cromwell, right,

58:26

like a Puritan preacher, ask

58:28

yourself, you know, is

58:31

there no goodness in God's gift of sex?

58:33

Is it all, you know, like it's

58:35

supposed to be neat and fine? This

58:38

is a Dionysian force that sweeps through

58:40

every human body, especially in their youth

58:42

and especially in men. It

58:44

is not supposed to be tame. It's not supposed to be

58:46

nice. It is something very

58:48

difficult to control and people control it

58:50

in various ways. And one of them

58:52

is by looking at pictures of pretty

58:54

girls that hopefully are not too grotesque.

58:57

For my Catholic friends who are talking

58:59

about getting rid of liberalism as

59:01

the foundation of government, let me ask you this.

59:03

Is there nothing good about God's gift of freedom

59:05

of thought? That we're not, you know, the Catholics

59:07

are saying, well, you have freedom as long as

59:10

you're doing what's good for the common good. For

59:13

my friends on the right who think

59:16

that one size should fit everybody, one

59:18

kind of life should fit everybody. Is

59:20

there no goodness in God's gift of

59:22

individuality? The project of the human person,

59:26

and I want to say this at the beginning of the year because I'm

59:28

going to be hitting on it all here, is

59:30

not to be himself. The left is totally

59:32

wrong about this. You're not supposed to be

59:35

yourself. You're supposed to be the self that

59:37

God made you to be, the image of

59:39

God as you individually represent it. If

59:42

never evil, that's why we have the Ten

59:44

Commandments to tell us what not to do. It's

59:46

never greedy. It's never covetous. It's never murderous, but

59:48

it can be eccentric. It can be sexy. It

59:50

can be funny, silly, sometimes out of line, a

59:53

little foul mouth. Sometimes it can be a lot

59:55

of different things. That image of God can appear

59:57

in a lot of different ways. And if we

59:59

want to take back the culture and if you

1:00:02

want to reform the state, this is our moment.

1:00:04

It really is. This is our moment. 2024 is

1:00:06

the moment. But

1:00:09

we won't win if we don't try to understand

1:00:11

who we are and why we

1:00:13

were created and what we were

1:00:15

created to be. And we can't

1:00:18

understand that until we start thinking

1:00:20

seriously again about the mind of

1:00:22

our Creator, who He is, what

1:00:24

He wants, and how we can

1:00:26

know. Have you ever told a

1:00:28

friend, Oh, I'm fine. when

1:00:31

you really felt just so

1:00:33

overwhelmed? Or sent a text

1:00:36

Can't sleep. Are you awake? when

1:00:39

you couldn't find the words to say? I'm

1:00:41

scared to be alone with my thoughts right

1:00:43

now. Then this is your sign to reach

1:02:39

clapbacks. Woo!

1:02:42

Well, I've been eating and everything is put in

1:02:44

front of me, but I mean, ice cream, chocolate

1:02:46

chip ice cream. Yeah! Ha ha ha, I'm never

1:02:48

gonna get over that. All

1:02:50

right, from Anonymous. Hello, Andrew, Spencer, and Faith.

1:02:52

As I said, I did a Christmas show

1:02:55

with the kids, and you should watch it, it's still

1:02:57

up. And so

1:02:59

here's a letter to all three of us. I

1:03:01

have a daughter who is truly one of the

1:03:03

most beautiful souls I have ever been around. It's

1:03:05

always been her nature to help where she sees

1:03:07

a need, building houses, providing medical care, tutoring in

1:03:09

schools and communities where other people are afraid to

1:03:11

go. She is a brand new

1:03:13

physician, is brilliant, and so has her choice

1:03:16

of any residency she wants. She's chosen a

1:03:18

dangerous, underserved city. She told us

1:03:20

she was gay in her junior year of

1:03:22

high school. In her freshman year of college,

1:03:24

she asked me if I thought God would

1:03:26

let her into heaven. This question broke my

1:03:28

heart as I knew she was referring to

1:03:30

the Bible's condemnation of homosexuality. I answered her

1:03:32

by saying I could not fathom a God

1:03:34

who would look in her heart and not

1:03:36

want her near. I am a lifelong practicing

1:03:38

Catholic, and I just don't really know what

1:03:40

to say. Can you and or Spencer help

1:03:42

me? Well, before

1:03:45

I answer this, and every time I answer these questions,

1:03:47

I get in just tremendous trouble, but

1:03:49

I don't mind, that's why I'm here. And

1:03:53

I did run this by Spencer, and I'll tell you what he

1:03:55

said as well. But

1:03:57

before I answer it, let me say I'm not a pastor, I'm not

1:03:59

a. theologian. I'm not a

1:04:01

priest and so I don't

1:04:04

want to guide you wrong

1:04:06

but I will just tell you how I

1:04:08

feel about this. It

1:04:13

certainly seems to me true that in the Garden

1:04:15

of Eden that man and

1:04:17

male and female are blended

1:04:19

together like mercury you

1:04:21

know that liquid metal that when you

1:04:24

break it up it just kind of

1:04:26

re-flows into each other and that in

1:04:28

the fall of man our sexuality was

1:04:31

deeply deeply disturbed. I think

1:04:33

this is true of straight men. I think

1:04:35

it's true of gay men. I think it's

1:04:37

true of gay women. Our sexuality is broken

1:04:40

and there are things that one must not

1:04:42

do and there are terrible things

1:04:44

that people do for sex not

1:04:46

just rape. I'm talking about divorce,

1:04:48

breaking up families, depriving children of

1:04:50

their mothers and fathers. I

1:04:53

in my youth when I was not just

1:04:55

young but also mentally ill did things that

1:04:57

I can never make up for that I

1:04:59

feel terrible about and all

1:05:01

of these things are terribly terribly bad.

1:05:04

I do think it seems

1:05:06

obvious to me that men and women are supposed

1:05:08

to fit together and make new life but I

1:05:10

also think that you know that

1:05:12

when you are a gay

1:05:14

person this is something that you have

1:05:16

to accommodate and neither you nor I

1:05:19

can make the final or going to make

1:05:21

the final judgment of what that looks like.

1:05:24

You love this child and this child sounds

1:05:26

incredibly lovable to me as I love my

1:05:28

son who is incredibly lovable. I have people

1:05:30

write to me and call him names all

1:05:33

the time and I feel absolutely certain in

1:05:35

my heart because I know that a father's

1:05:37

love and even a mother's love which is

1:05:40

the first rule of human life mother's love

1:05:43

even that love is nothing

1:05:45

nothing compared to the love

1:05:47

and forgiveness of God. I

1:05:50

just think that a lot of the people who call

1:05:53

my son's name the last thing

1:05:55

they're going to see before they see

1:05:57

the face of the devil is his

1:05:59

ass receding. into heaven as he goes

1:06:01

to the Father where I believe he belongs and

1:06:03

I believe the same thing of your daughter. Does

1:06:05

that mean they don't have to deal with their

1:06:07

sexuality? Like I have to deal with mine, you

1:06:10

have to deal with yours? No, of course they

1:06:12

do. And what decisions they make are going to

1:06:14

be between them and God. I think the thing

1:06:16

you can do for them is love them, hope

1:06:18

that they have faith, and hope that God directs

1:06:22

them not as the priests want them

1:06:24

to go, but as God himself thinks

1:06:26

they're supposed to go.

1:06:28

Let me read a little bit of Spencer's response

1:06:30

to me. He was talking about the fact, and

1:06:33

I just so deeply believe this, that

1:06:35

Christianity is not a set of rules. There

1:06:37

are certain rules that Jesus mentions that

1:06:39

are some of the Ten Commandments that

1:06:41

I think are there to make

1:06:44

sure you're on the right road. And then there are things

1:06:46

that he says in the Beatitudes and the Sermon on the

1:06:48

Mount that are directions that you should

1:06:50

go. But in the end, as we know

1:06:52

from his dealing with the woman taken in

1:06:54

adultery, it is not a set of rules.

1:06:57

It means that there is no guaranteed thing

1:06:59

to do. There's no list of things that

1:07:01

you can do. And

1:07:03

he says this, when every possible—this is

1:07:05

my son Spencer, no relation, but still

1:07:07

I think I should read it—when every

1:07:09

possible laundry list of safe options under

1:07:12

the sun has had been exhausted, and

1:07:14

when every ritual and rule had failed

1:07:16

to save, God appeared on earth as

1:07:18

a living Savior whose life could be

1:07:20

circumscribed by no law, not even the

1:07:22

laws of nature and of death. His

1:07:25

life, which will live in you

1:07:27

if you let it, produces joy,

1:07:29

charity, patience, kindness, and love against

1:07:31

such things. There is no law.

1:07:33

Follow them wherever they appear in your life

1:07:35

and root out everything that stands in their

1:07:38

way or opposes them. They will lead you

1:07:40

to him. I said there was no safe

1:07:42

option, but there is a sure and certain

1:07:44

option, which is the son of the living

1:07:46

God. I can't tell you what to do,

1:07:48

and neither can some putts on the street

1:07:50

with big theories, but he can. That, I

1:07:52

would say, is well put, and

1:07:54

it is my response to you. I

1:07:56

can't tell you what to do, and

1:07:58

you can't tell other— people what to

1:08:00

do, but God can, and I hope, as I

1:08:02

hope for my son, he follows God, and I

1:08:04

hope your daughter does. She sounds like a wonderful,

1:08:07

wonderful person, and like you, I

1:08:09

cannot imagine a God rejecting her

1:08:12

on what is essentially a broken rule.

1:08:15
