The Daily Wire has exclusively obtained
0:02
a newsletter from the office of
0:04
Joe Biden's National Intelligence Director. Joe
0:07
Biden, or as he's sometimes called the big
0:09
guy, is of course you know the rhododendron
0:12
currently running the free world on behalf of
0:14
the Chinese, which is only
0:16
fair since they've paid him a bundle in bribes. His
0:19
Director of National Intelligence is Avril
0:21
Haines, whose pronouns are Wang Si,
0:23
Ko, Mao, Soei, Fang, Fang, Chu,
0:25
and who served under CIA Director
0:27
John Brennan, a communist, when the
0:29
president was Barack Obama, an anti-American
0:32
globalist. But not to
0:34
worry, during her confirmation hearing, DNI Fang
0:36
Fang reassured Congress there were only some
0:38
areas where she wanted to cooperate with
0:41
the Chinese, like in collecting the big
0:43
guy's money and depositing it in one
0:45
of his 20 shell companies. So he
0:47
has plausible deniability while he's handing our
0:50
border to Mexican cartels who kill Americans
0:52
with fentanyl, then launder their profits with
0:54
the Chinese mafia inside the U.S. What
0:58
was I talking about? Oh yeah,
1:00
according to the Daily Wire's crack
1:02
investigative reporter, Spencer Crack, DNI Fang
1:04
Fang's office puts out a newsletter
1:06
called the DIVE, D-I-V-E, which
1:09
guides the FBI, CIA, and NSA
1:11
on matters of diversity, equity, and
1:13
inclusion, DEI, so that our intelligence
1:15
officers can better keep America free
1:18
for the untraceable banking of Chinese bribes.
1:21
According to DNI Fang Fang's newsletter,
1:23
when American intelligence officers are reporting
1:25
on terrorist threats, they should stop
1:28
describing, I'm not making this up,
1:30
they should stop describing the terrorists with
1:32
phrases that may be hurtful to
1:34
Muslim Americans. Now, the
1:37
Daily Wire's crack reporter, Crack, has
1:39
also obtained secret files that describe
1:41
a real-life incident in which DNI's
1:44
D-E-I-D-I-V-E helps CIA, FBI, and NSA
1:46
perform their duties. Recently,
1:49
one of our top CIA agents, Wang
1:51
Fuchiy, received a warning that a young
1:53
Iranian man was about to blow himself
1:56
up on Wall Street while shouting, Allahu
1:58
Akbar, thereby potentially damaging our banking
2:00
system and preventing President Big Guy from collecting
2:02
his money from China and secreting it in
2:05
one of his 20 shell companies. Though
2:07
it was the dead of night, Agent Wang
2:09
quickly called DNI Fang Fang, where
2:11
she was sleeping at Congressman Eric
2:13
Swalwell's house, to report that the
2:16
Big Guy's cash was facing a
2:18
jihadist threat. DNI Fang
2:20
Fang immediately dropped her riding crop, leapt
2:22
out of bed, and instructed Agent Wang
2:24
that he should re-file his report after
2:26
first removing the word jihadist, which might
2:29
offend some Muslim Americans. Dutifully
2:31
starting over, Agent Wang then said, quote, a
2:34
young man from a foreign nation that
2:36
intends to destroy the world in order
2:38
to hasten the arrival of the 12th
2:40
Imam, or sorry, I
2:42
should just say the 12th non-denominational
2:44
clergyman named Muhammad Al-Madi, or
2:46
maybe just Bob Al-Madi. But let's just
2:49
call him Pastor Bob. Unfortunately, at this
2:51
point, Agent Wang's report was interrupted by
2:53
a shout of Allah Abu Akbar, followed
2:55
by a tremendous explosion. In
2:57
another helpful edition of the DNI's DEI,
3:00
DIV, the FBI, CIA, and NSA, the
3:02
newsletter tells the touching story of an
3:04
American intelligence officer who says, quote, and
3:07
as God is my witness, this is a real
3:10
quote from the DNI newsletter, I
3:12
am an intelligence officer, and I
3:14
am a man who likes to wear women's clothes
3:16
sometimes. My gender identity and
3:18
expression make me a better intelligence
3:21
officer, unquote. The
3:23
officer goes on to explain that cross-dressing
3:26
not only makes his intelligence work more
3:28
incisive but also more becoming in a
3:30
pink chiffon mini-sun dress with a naughty
3:32
but nice sweetheart neckline that's simply perfect
3:35
for reporting on young foreign-born males who
3:37
want to hasten the coming of the
3:39
12th non-denominational clergyman, Pastor Bob. But
3:42
at this point, the article is interrupted by a
3:44
shout of Allah Abu Akbar, followed by a tremendous
3:47
explosion. So as
3:49
you can see, we can all rest
3:51
easy at night knowing that Congressman Swalwell's
3:53
mistress, DNI Fang Fang, has a cross-dressing
3:56
communist CIA agent keeping watch to make
3:58
sure no one uses offensive language
4:00
while President Big Guy is being paid
4:02
by China with the money they make
4:04
laundering the profits Mexican gangsters collect for
4:06
killing Americans. All
4:08
that said, now I'll begin my
4:10
satire. Trigger warning, I'm Andrew Klavan, and this
4:12
is The Andrew Klavan Show. Right,
4:17
we're back. The
4:30
vast conservative conspiracy known as Klavan
4:33
continues. This, right this moment, would
4:35
be an excellent time to subscribe
4:37
to The Andrew Klavan YouTube channel,
4:39
my personal YouTube channel where you
4:41
will get exclusive content directly from
4:43
me. I will drive by
4:45
your house, I will throw it at you, probably knock
4:47
over your kid, and just drive off into the distance
4:50
before anybody knows it's coming from me. We've
4:52
got everything up there, including the interviews we do
4:54
that come out every Wednesday. Those are available there
4:56
on Daily Wire Plus and on the audio feed.
4:59
Last week we had Abigail Schreier, who I love. She
5:01
was talking about her new book, Bad Therapy. And
5:04
this coming week we have an interview. It's already
5:06
been taped, and I think it's one of the
5:08
best interviews I've ever done. It's with investigative reporter
5:10
Michael Schellenberger. Really it's a
5:12
great interview because I'm talking it very much, but
5:14
it really is good. Also if
5:17
you leave a comment on YouTube and
5:19
it violates all the laws of God
5:21
and man and just as it drags
5:23
this show down into the gutter where
5:25
it belongs, we'll read it because that's
5:27
where we belong. Today's comment
5:29
comes from survivor Dave. He says, guys,
5:31
an alien killed Klavan and is wearing
5:34
his skin. He claimed Klavan slept. We
5:36
know that would never happen. I know,
5:38
amazing, right? It was shocking
5:41
and I've had too much energy all week. All
5:43
right, let's get to today's episode. Don't
5:45
worry, be Miserable.. It
6:00
was kind of supernatural. I was staff afraid I
6:02
was going to be hit by a a truck
6:04
or something just for God's ironic. I finished. This.
6:07
Book that I was working. I've been
6:09
working on for years and I'm really
6:11
really excited about. It's kind of in
6:13
the genre of truth and Beauty is
6:15
a nonfiction, books about reading and literature
6:17
and movies and what we can learn
6:19
from secular works about god and I'm
6:21
really excited about as little as twenty
6:23
five days. with may have been the
6:25
best thing I've ever written in my
6:27
entire life. I signed a contract for
6:29
a short stories is very important to
6:31
me. was one of the best, the
6:33
best that only. Really great remaining magazine
6:36
for crime short stories. Are I have.
6:38
An amazing project that popped up. I can't
6:40
tell you about this project but I know
6:42
some of you are gonna love this project
6:45
but a pop out of up out of
6:47
nowhere and just started Rolling stone an offer
6:49
on it right away. This morning I'm in
6:51
the hotel finished just policy of the show
6:53
and one of my stories was announced. Lives
6:55
can Be and Follow just is great and
6:57
also and I don't want to make this
6:59
about Kansas but I wish her well. I
7:01
I like her of I personally but beyond
7:03
which will but spokesperson I'm really thrilled that
7:06
the Daily Wire is sub has right itself
7:08
in is going. On direction I think it
7:10
should be and there were other personal
7:12
moment of joint. just as great thing
7:14
L every now and again just for
7:16
hilarity ever known. Can I had some
7:18
go on social media all that much?
7:21
But I do go on when I
7:23
want to put something I've read, read
7:25
or written that I think people will
7:27
likely just comment on something at every
7:29
time I've gone. It was some kind
7:31
of like this place. If is
7:34
less, it was like this little doorway
7:36
and hell with people's trying to lean
7:38
on rage because of everything. What I
7:40
said no last shows a price as
7:42
saying you lousy as over. don't
7:45
know maybe it was something i said obstructs
7:47
i suffered much i said to my wife
7:49
energy this the people in hell he meets
7:51
first i was thinking you know i i
7:54
i i kind of felt bad for them
7:56
because i mean they're so angry in their
7:58
souls of full of hate And at
8:01
first I thought I was going to ignore them, but
8:04
I have to say there were some things I
8:06
said. You know, remember I told you that I
8:08
got the news, or I knew the news about
8:10
Kansas had gone public just an
8:12
hour or so before I go on, and I take a lot of
8:15
time putting the show together and thinking about what I want to say.
8:17
So I was talking, you know, without
8:19
that kind of preparation. And there was
8:21
one thing I said that even good
8:23
people misunderstood. So this is Good Friday.
8:25
And Good Friday is a day that
8:27
always really fascinates me. And
8:30
the reason it fascinates me is it
8:32
was probably the saddest day that ever
8:34
existed in history. It was a day
8:36
when even saints panicked, ran, and despaired.
8:38
Right? It is a time when
8:40
people thought, you know, we know the happy ending,
8:42
but they didn't. Right? And so
8:44
this is the time when they thought the story was
8:46
over. All the hopes are dashed. Everything, the worst thing.
8:49
And I'm seeing that a lot on the right right now. I'm
8:51
seeing a lot of people on the right who have given up
8:54
on the story of America. They've
8:56
given up on the story of democracy. They're
8:58
embracing the kinds of bigotry that I thought
9:00
had been purged out of the conservative movement
9:02
by William F. Buckley. They've got this new
9:05
paganism that's kind of going on, even though
9:07
sometimes it masquerades as Christianity. It's actually a
9:09
kind of paganism. They want to bring back
9:11
the church over the state, which is an
9:14
unchristian idea. That's not what Jesus said. And
9:17
these are the councils of despair. And
9:19
I definitely understand why people are despairing.
9:21
It really does look like things have
9:23
gone awry. It looks like the left
9:25
has so much power. Who
9:27
knows what's going to happen in this next election?
9:30
And the thing is, despair is a
9:32
self-fulfilling prophecy. You can lose a fight,
9:35
but you can't win a surrender. So
9:37
I decided, I made the decision that at the end of
9:40
the show, I'm going to
9:42
talk about some of the trends I'm seeing today during
9:44
the show and some of the stuff I was going
9:46
to talk about last week, but at the end of
9:48
the show, in the final chapter, I'm going to talk
9:50
this week about the
9:52
Bible and why I
9:54
read it the way I do. And
9:57
I want to clear up the one thing I
9:59
said that people misunderstand. understood, but also
10:01
I want to confirm some of the things I said
10:03
that people protested against. That'll be my
10:05
Easter message to the people. But
10:08
we'll get to all that later. Now let's
10:10
go to chapter one, Don't Marry, Be Miserable.
10:13
You know, I sent
10:15
a portrait to paint your life a few years
10:17
ago. It was really fun.
10:19
The process was quick and easy, and I thought
10:21
their work was great. I held it up on
10:23
the air. It was really good. It
10:25
really looked like a portrait, and I'm confident you'll
10:28
like it too. With Mother's Day and Father's Day
10:30

11:45
here's a small, but I think symbolic
11:47
story out of Florence, Italy this week,
11:49
which you probably didn't hear about, but
11:51
it made me laugh. It
11:54
kind of made me laugh, but it also symbolized something that I
11:56
think is going on that's not that funny. The
11:58
lady who runs one of Florence's major
12:00
cultural institutions, the Academy Gallery, a
12:03
German woman who runs, it's called
12:05
the Gallery del Academia, has
12:08
been fighting and winning court
12:10
cases to keep people from
12:12
profiting off reproductions of
12:15
Michelangelo's David, you know, the famous statue
12:17
of David with a slingshot over his
12:20
shoulder, a nude, gigantic statue, absolutely beautiful,
12:22
one of his great works, one of
12:24
the great works of art in Western
12:27
history, in any history. But
12:29
people take pictures of his penis
12:31
and put them on t-shirts and
12:33
postcards and this lady feels that
12:36
these are degrading to the
12:38
statue, to this great work of art and
12:40
in Italy there are laws that allow you
12:42
to protect works of art. She's been suing
12:44
people and she's been winning and there's a
12:46
lot of angles to this story. The lady
12:48
who runs the gallery, like I said, she's
12:50
German and so even the right wing government
12:52
headed by Maloney, they've kind of think that
12:54
they should get rid of foreigners in their
12:56
institutions and there's a Florida
12:59
angle because there was a small
13:01
classical school in Florida that
13:04
had a kerfuffle when parents complained about
13:06
a teacher teaching the David because of
13:08
the nudity. But the symbolic thing to
13:10
me is the statue of David, although
13:12
this was not its original purpose, it
13:14
very quickly came to be seen as
13:17
a symbol of the
13:19
Florentine Republic, right, one of the
13:21
earliest republics in history and
13:23
the heroic defense, the defiance
13:26
of that republic against
13:28
these powerful popes and princes who wanted
13:30
to take it over and turn it
13:32
into a tyranny. And so here he
13:34
was with his slingshot, the little guy
13:36
ready to defend the city and the
13:38
republic against the Goliath's that were trying
13:40
to come down, a tyranny and theocracy
13:43
and his nudity
13:45
has always been an issue. Queen Victoria
13:47
had a replica of it, I
13:49
think in the Victoria and Albert museums, she put
13:51
a fig leaf on it.
13:54
But it just struck me as funny
13:56
that what was once a symbol of
13:58
freedom, a noble classical
14:01
looking symbol of freedom,
14:03
the classicize of the Bible, is
14:05
now all about the shlong.
14:08
It's all about its penis, which to
14:10
me is what America looks like exactly,
14:12
right? Our founders gave us a system
14:15
for limiting power so we could have
14:17
our own ideas and build families and
14:19
associate with who we want to and
14:22
worship God as we want to, and
14:24
all we care about is shlong. All
14:26
we care about is that we can
14:28
bang whoever we want without any moral
14:31
reference, without any consequence, or as Barack
14:33
Obama said, without being punished by a
14:35
baby. And that's all anybody talks about
14:37
or cares about, all the law and all
14:39
the Democrats, the left is selling us all
14:42
the time, is you've got to be able
14:44
to cut your pieces off and turn yourself
14:46
and dress in a woman's
14:48
outfit and then everything will be so
14:50
much happier instead of, you know, you
14:52
should be reading your tradition and arguing
14:54
your point of view with
14:56
all the force you have and nobody should
14:58
be allowed to stop you. So
15:01
the Supreme Court, just really interesting,
15:03
the Supreme Court heard this case,
15:06
FDA versus Alliance for Hippocratic
15:08
Medicine, where doctors who oppose
15:10
abortion were challenging the FDA's
15:13
loosening of the rules that
15:15
allow you to get the
15:17
abortion pill, what's it
15:19
called? I can never remember what it's called, but
15:22
anyway, you know what it is, the abortion pill
15:24
and the FDA
15:26
allowed nurse practitioners, mepristone,
15:32
but anyway, they allowed nurse practitioners, not only doctors
15:34
to prescribe it, they increased the gestational age cutoff
15:36
to 10 weeks from seven and the doctors challenged
15:39
it. And the court, as far as you could
15:41
judge from the questioning, was very, very skeptical about
15:43
whether they were going to do anything about this,
15:45
not because of the moral issue, but because of
15:48
legal technicalities, let's call them,
15:50
whether the doctors actually had standing to
15:52
sue. And so people
15:55
are fighting very hard for this and I saw
15:58
recently at the State of the
16:00
union address, people were all dressed up in
16:02
white, the Democrats were all dressed up in white
16:04
to defend abortion. They stood in a plot of
16:06
abortion whenever it came up. And I found
16:08
it kind of depressing. I said to Ann
16:10
Coulter when she was here for an interview, I
16:13
said, John Adams said, our Constitution
16:15
is only for immoral and religious people. And
16:17
that doesn't, to me, look like what immoral
16:19
religious people look like. And maybe we're not
16:21
the people who can be governed by the
16:23
Constitution anymore. Media Matters published that and they
16:25
said, look, what are you saying? I thought,
16:27
where's the lie? And I said, yeah, that's
16:29
exactly what I'm saying. What got
16:31
me about this is I'm watching
16:33
this attempt to make sure that
16:36
people can take a pill that will wipe
16:38
out the baby that's inside them that
16:41
two years after the Supreme Court almost two
16:43
years since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v.
16:45
Wade, a very moving moment that I really
16:48
hoped would be a change in the culture.
16:51
A record number, according to a
16:53
new Fox News poll, a record
16:55
number of voters think abortion should
16:57
be legal with two thirds favoring
17:00
nationwide law, guaranteeing access. Support
17:02
for legalization is up mostly by double dishes
17:04
across the board since April 2022, two
17:07
months before Roe was overturned, which
17:10
means that before Roe was
17:12
overturned, we were winning the cultural fight
17:14
because people were beginning to see what
17:16
abortion was. They were beginning to see
17:18
what we were doing. They were beginning
17:20
to see what this country had turned
17:22
into. But since then, we
17:24
have gotten the dog that caught
17:26
the car, we have gotten very
17:28
morally pure. We're demanding that all
17:31
our politicians have a complete
17:33
ban and a federal ban and things that
17:35
people just don't want. And
17:37
as we do our usual conservative, I'm
17:39
angry, angry routine, and everybody's got to
17:41
be pure, pure, pure routine, and nevermind the politics,
17:44
we've got to just force people to do it.
17:47
The left is doing what they do
17:49
so, so well, which is changing
17:53
the culture, getting into
17:55
the culture. Remember Abraham Lincoln In one
17:57
of his debates with Stephen Douglas, you know, he's
17:59
sometimes accused of being a criminal. the Hypocrite: Because
18:01
he didn't want to abolish slavery, he just want
18:03
to prevent it from spreading. He wanted to have
18:05
also been in we couldn't and he said. Public.
18:08
Sentiment is everything with public sentiment.
18:10
Nothing can fail without it. Nothing
18:12
can succeed. See who moles? Public
18:14
sentiment goes deeper than he will
18:16
knock statues were pronouns. His decisions.
18:19
He makes Thatcherism decisions possible or
18:21
impossible to be executed. which is
18:23
why I got into talking to
18:25
conservative people cause I realize they
18:27
have lost the culture where this
18:29
ideas are shapes to Stephen Fry.
18:31
remember the former left wing ah
18:33
Supreme court justices been making around
18:36
selling his new book which is
18:38
basically. They're to
18:40
defend to attack the present courts,
18:42
and to defend abortions. Just listen
18:44
to his little cut of Wolf
18:46
Blitzer on Cnn interviewing former Supreme
18:48
Court Justice Stephen Breyer. Among
18:50
other things, you said that on his career
18:52
path. right? Now the Supreme Court
18:55
is producer your abuser, your words
18:57
a constitution that no one wants
18:59
one of the implications of the
19:01
have for the country to that's
19:03
not a good implications of the
19:05
countries and where I say that
19:07
frequently was Nino Scully and I
19:09
used to discuss in public. The.
19:12
Differences in our approach to the constitution
19:14
I remember and earth statutes to and
19:16
he would say i have to complicated
19:18
the system only use Stephen King Darius
19:21
and then I'd say to him but
19:23
if we follow uni know we'll have
19:25
a constitution that no one would one
19:27
of the constitution that no one would
19:30
one And I've heard some of these
19:32
debates between Scully and Briar and was
19:34
Scalia was saying is how can we
19:36
would with he believes in his pragmatism
19:38
Briar he says you know. We.
19:41
Have to ticket. To take. into account
19:43
the fact the society changes opinion saying public
19:45
sentiment changes and school i would say read
19:48
the document what do they mean that's loss
19:50
if congress wants to change them off let
19:52
them change was not our job the legislature
19:54
and he would say you can't just make
19:57
up the last and briar says you will
19:59
get it constitution that no one wants.
20:01
See what the founders thought was that
20:03
the Constitution would shape the ideas of
20:05
the people because these would be the
20:07
laws under which you lived and those
20:09
laws would protect your freedom. But people
20:11
don't want freedom. The Bible tells us
20:13
this. Remember Moses does miracle after
20:15
miracle to free the Hebrews from slavery in
20:17
Egypt and the minute they get hungry they
20:19
say where's our food when we were slaves
20:22
we had food why don't we have food.
20:24
People want to be taken care of they
20:26
do not want freedom and so the left
20:28
is playing always always through their Hollywood
20:30
media through their news media through
20:32
their academies where they educate our
20:34
children whom we pay them to
20:36
educate through everything they say
20:38
everything they do they're moving to change
20:41
what people want so they will become
20:43
slaves. Here's an article from
20:45
Alyssa Finley in the Wall Street Journal. The
20:48
US has a pregnancy crisis according
20:50
to liberal medical experts and the
20:52
press. They're referring to America supposedly
20:55
soaring maternal mortality not its declining
20:57
fertility. The US stands out quote
20:59
this from the American Medical Association
21:01
the US stands out among high-income
21:03
nations for its alarming incidents of
21:06
maternal deaths despite substantial health care
21:08
spending evidence and experience show us
21:10
conclusively that the risk of death
21:13
during or after childbirth is approximately 14
21:16
times greater than the risk of
21:18
death from abortion related complications the
21:20
AMA says the only thing that's
21:22
unfortunate about this the Center for
21:24
Disease Control and Prevention's National Vital
21:26
Statistics System reports that maternal mortality
21:28
rates in the US have roughly
21:30
tripled since 2001 and
21:33
this is nearly three times as high as rates
21:35
in other developed countries. Only one
21:38
problem it's not true
21:40
there's a checkbox that they added that
21:43
adds to death certificates in
21:45
2023 to identify women who had
21:47
died while pregnant or between 42
21:49
days in a year of when
21:51
their pregnancy ended and once
21:54
you analyzed it taking that out
21:56
and only making sure that they died
21:58
of complications from childbirth, our
22:01
rates are the same as anybody else. So
22:03
every day, look around, look around, every single
22:05
day, the leftist media is filled with stories
22:07
telling you, hinting, just feeding
22:10
this information into your brain, that you've got
22:12
to do this thing, you've got to learn,
22:15
abortion's got to be available, and you should
22:17
have one. The Atlantic does a big piece
22:19
saying those genetic tests, you know, like the
22:21
DNA tests that you can send in, they've
22:24
shown that many Miller people were born from
22:26
incest than we think. There are no figures
22:28
involved in this article at all, none.
22:30
But now we find out, these people get
22:32
tested and they find out their father is
22:34
also their uncle or whatever, you know, and
22:37
so we know there's a lot of incest
22:39
going around and this is something that appeals
22:41
to people. If you were impregnated through incest,
22:43
a terrible, tragic, wicked situation, you should be
22:46
allowed to have an abortion, although I don't
22:48
know why that stains the actual child who's
22:50
inside you, who's just another person. But
22:53
the New York Times has a story about a
22:56
horrible genetic defect, it's really clever, it tells the
22:58
story from the point of view of a mother
23:00
who said, I'm not going to let my baby
23:02
die, even though the baby's gonna be suffering, then
23:04
talks about the suffering of the baby and the
23:07
trials of the mother. And the mother finally says,
23:09
you know, I thought nobody should have an abortion
23:11
after this, but now I see this is not
23:13
for everybody, right? And then the New York Times
23:16
says, thousands of women each year become pregnant with
23:18
fetuses that have this terrible genetic defect and the
23:20
number of babies born with trisomy
23:23
18 may rise because
23:25
of the Supreme Court's decision in 2022. I
23:27
always love when they use the future tense,
23:30
it may rise, says someone at the New York
23:32
Times. Look around, look around, as the election gets
23:34
closer, you're gonna see it more and more, they
23:37
are selling this all the time
23:39
because they're changing minds, they
23:41
are changing minds. They
23:45
even want to make sure that people don't give
23:47
up birth control, right? They really have this thing
23:49
about babies, they don't want them to be born.
23:51
The Washington Post, where democracy dies in
23:53
darkness, they have a wonderful, if
23:56
you have a morbid sense of
23:58
humor like I do, they have this. and women
24:00
are getting off birth control, a mad misinformation explosion,
24:02
and who do they blame for this? Us, the
24:04
Daily Wire. The Daily Wire is saying that the
24:07
side effects of birth control can
24:09
be bad, and there's this wonderful line,
24:11
you know, they're blaming Ben and Matt
24:13
and all this stuff, and they say,
24:16
doctors, listen to this, doctors worry the
24:18
profession's long-standing lack of transparency about some
24:20
of the serious but rare side effects
24:22
has left many patients seeking information from
24:24
unqualified online communities. In other words, because
24:27
we lied, because the medical community lied,
24:29
people don't trust us anymore, what's up with
24:31
that? We lied and now you
24:33
don't trust us and you're going to other people, like the Daily
24:35
Wire where they don't lie, that's
24:38
a terrible thing, not a good argument. You
24:40
know, the thing about birth control,
24:42
and I'm not telling anybody to get offered or
24:44
take it or not take it, anything like that,
24:46
but Mary Harrington is right when she says birth
24:48
control changes the meaning of being a woman and
24:50
maybe even eradicates what it means to be a
24:52
woman, and there's a price for it, everything comes
24:54
at a price. So yes, it has made it
24:56
possible for you to degrade yourself and sleep with
24:58
anybody you want, and not
25:00
get pregnant and wake up in bed with somebody you
25:02
don't know, because you got so drunk the night before,
25:04
so yes, you're free, hooray, but it means the meaning
25:06
of being a woman has become completely
25:10
amorphous. Nobody knows what it is. My son,
25:12
Spencer Clavin, no relation, has a wonderful
25:14
essay on chivalry up at Fairer Disputations. I
25:16
love Fairer Disputations. It's where all these brilliant
25:19
women who I, I'm the first person to
25:21
have noticed them, the brilliant women who finally
25:24
figured out that feminism was a bad deal but they
25:26
can't quite bring themselves to say it, so they call
25:28
themselves, I don't know, reactionary feminists or something like this,
25:31
but Spencer quotes a
25:34
woman writer who says, I think
25:36
it would be such a funny way for
25:38
feminism to end, her name is Jenerva Davis,
25:40
funny way for feminism to end, if someday
25:42
we get artificial wombs and parents get to
25:44
choose the body of their child and they
25:46
all choose male, and females can be at
25:49
long last wiped from the face of the
25:51
earth, because when
25:53
you take away the meaning
25:55
of a woman as mother,
25:57
as homemaker, as nurturer, Take
26:00
away the meaning of that. Then our troublemaking
26:02
friend Pearl Davis, you know, we love her
26:04
as a troublemaker, who says men are better
26:06
at everything. Well, men are better at everything
26:09
that men are better at. But women are
26:11
better at being women, and they are value
26:13
added to society in a big, big way.
26:15
So now what we have is a situation
26:18
where we are free and we're miserable. We
26:20
are free to be sexually promiscuous, but we
26:22
have to kill babies, and killing babies makes
26:24
people miserable. Sometimes they don't know it
26:26
because they've told to shout their abortion. Why do you
26:29
think they're shouting? Doing the wrong thing
26:31
makes people miserable over time. That's why we
26:33
have a God who forgives us, because if
26:35
you go to him and repent, say, I
26:37
did a bad thing, he will forgive you.
26:39
He will lighten that load. But if you're
26:41
afraid to face your shame, if you're afraid
26:43
to face your guilt, you're gonna be carrying
26:45
around this moral disaster of sexual freedom. You
26:47
know, this is the other thing.
26:50
We did a bonus video where I
26:52
watched this stupid show on Peacock, which
26:54
is NBC. This is the, NBC of
26:57
course is a company that hid the
26:59
Harvey Weinstein scandal because they didn't wanna
27:01
offend Harvey because they had connections with
27:03
Universal Studios in Hollywood. And now they're
27:05
running a show on Peacock called Thrupples.
27:08
And it's one of those, you know,
27:11
theoretically true things where
27:14
they bring couples together and introduce a
27:16
third person. And it was pitiful. It was
27:18
pitiful. They're selling this stuff because what they're
27:21
trying to do, Ross Staufat writes about this
27:23
in the New York Times. He says they've
27:25
got a quest for a new vision of
27:27
sexual morality. They don't wanna give up the
27:30
sexual, the degrading sexual freedom. They
27:32
don't wanna give up the degrading sexual freedom. But
27:34
because of Me Too, they realize women got burned.
27:36
Like the left always does this. They screw things
27:38
up and then they can't just say, we made
27:40
a mistake, let's go back. Oh, you know, defunding
27:43
the police, not a good idea, hire back the
27:45
police. They can't do it. So they have a
27:47
new solution that's gonna solve everything. And now we're
27:49
gonna have Thrupples and that's gonna change everything. Let
27:51
me show you a chart. This is a chart,
27:53
another article in the Atlantic, I have to say.
27:56
This is a number three, the American Happiness Rating.
27:58
If you're not watching, you're just listening. It's
28:01
right around 2000 it plummets, but
28:03
it starts plummeting right around 1970
28:05
increasing unhappiness This
28:08
is from an Atlantic article from last year
28:10
by a woman named Olga Kazan and she's
28:12
quoting a study by Sam Peltzman Here's
28:15
what she says. All right. He's an emeritus economics
28:17
professor at the University of Chicago and you're just
28:19
watching this thing It's just a descending wave of
28:21
happiness Down to 2020 where it's
28:23
really getting low and as you know, we fell
28:25
off the list of the top 20
28:28
happiest countries this year on the happiness index.
28:30
Okay After slicing
28:33
the democratic the demographic data every
28:35
which way income education level race
28:37
location age and gender Peltzman
28:40
found that this happiness dip
28:42
is mainly attributable to
28:44
one thing guess guess what it
28:46
is Married people are happier and
28:49
Americans aren't getting married as much
28:51
in 1986
28:53
percent of 40 year olds had never been married
28:55
but today it's 25%
28:58
that's amazing the recent decline in the
29:00
married share of adults can explain Statistically
29:02
most of the recent decline in overall
29:04
happiness Peltzman writes married people are much
29:07
happier than the unmarried according to this
29:09
data Looking at those same hundred people
29:11
40 married people will say they're happy
29:15
10 will say they're not happy but single people are about
29:17
evenly split between happy and not happy So it's a difference
29:19
of like 40% It doesn't
29:21
really matter if you are divorced or
29:23
widowed or have never married if you're
29:25
not married You're less likely to be
29:27
happy. So we've made ourselves miserable We've
29:29
given you know Cicero said the fruit
29:32
of too much liberty is slavery and
29:36
once David the
29:38
man who killed Goliath the young man who
29:40
killed Goliath He stood with his slingshot to
29:43
defend liberty, but it was a different kind
29:45
of Liberty wasn't it? It was liberty of
29:47
thought it was liberty of belief. It was
29:49
liberty to pick our own Rulers
29:52
our own governors now we have
29:54
liberty for one thing everybody's taking
29:56
pictures of David's song because that's
29:58
all we care about and
30:00
it makes you miserable. Sex is a
30:02
wonderful thing. I'm a big fan. I think married
30:04
people should have a lot of it. But
30:06
clearly, when you make that the only freedom
30:08
that you have, the fruit
30:11
of that liberty is slavery, and the
30:13
fruit of slavery is misery. So
30:17
you'll be glad to know I'm back to
30:19
not sleeping, but I can't fall asleep by

It's K-L-A-B-A-M. of
32:00
despair, but believe me, there's Easter coming
32:02
and we will end on an Easter
32:04
note. I want you to
32:06
listen to a Washington Post think piece, if
32:08
that's kind of a contradiction in terms, a
32:10
Washington Post think piece by Fareed Zakaria. Fareed
32:13
Zakaria is a liberal, they always call him
32:15
a moderate. I guess he's a moderate liberal.
32:18
I want to be fair to the guy. He's
32:20
written a new book and they have an excerpt of his
32:22
new book. It's
32:25
shocking how blind
32:28
the mainstream left has become
32:31
to who they are. It is shocking because they're
32:33
surrounded by people who agree with them, so nobody
32:35
argues with them. Nobody says, you
32:37
know, this actually isn't making any sense. What
32:40
he's talking about, the subhead of
32:42
this, or actually the headline is,
32:45
how to beat the backlash that
32:47
threatens the liberal revolution. He says,
32:49
since the fall of the Berlin
32:51
Wall in 1989, engineered
32:54
by three major conservatives, Reagan, Thatcher
32:56
and the Pope, right? That's who
32:58
engineered that. Wouldn't have happened without
33:00
them. Since the fall of
33:02
the Berlin Wall in 1989, the
33:04
world saw the liberalization of markets,
33:06
the democratization of politics and the
33:08
explosion of information technology. Each
33:11
of these trends seem to reinforce the
33:13
other creating a world that was overall
33:15
more open, dynamic and interconnected. But
33:18
now, now there's been a backlash,
33:21
a backlash is beating back against this
33:23
freedom, free trade, the global world, all
33:25
this wonderful stuff, the democratization of everything.
33:28
What's to blame, right? Populism,
33:31
Donald Trump, essentially. He
33:33
says the democracies of the West all
33:36
face a rising tide of illiberal populism
33:38
that is skeptical of openness, globalization, trade,
33:40
immigration and diversity. I love the way
33:43
they always say immigration. They don't say
33:45
invasion or illegal immigration. It's always immigration
33:47
like we hate foreign people coming to
33:49
America, which is hilarious since every single
33:51
one of us is a foreign person
33:54
who came to America. The
33:56
result has been that across the world
33:58
we are living through a democratic recession.
34:00
rising tariffs and trade barriers, growing hostility
34:03
to immigration and immigrants. I
34:05
love it. Ever-expanding limits on technology
34:07
and information access and even skepticism
34:09
about liberal democracy itself. He
34:11
says we all want to be free. Another untruth,
34:13
right? I told you already, people do not want
34:16
to be free. They want to be taken care
34:18
of. You have to teach them to be free.
34:20
You have to have laws that train their souls
34:22
to be free. We want choice, autonomy, control of
34:24
our lives, and yet we also know that when
34:26
human beings embrace freedom they can end up feeling
34:28
profoundly ill at ease. Freedom
34:30
and autonomy often come at the
34:33
expense of authority and tradition. As
34:35
the binding forces of religion and
34:37
custom fade, the individual gains but
34:39
communities often lose. So
34:42
the individual gains but communities often lose. The
34:44
result is that we might be richer and
34:46
freer but also lonelier. We search for something
34:49
somewhere to fill the infinite abyss.
34:51
And now he says when governments
34:53
define what makes meaningful life, directing
34:55
people to serve God, the fatherland
34:57
or the Communist cause, the results
34:59
are usually disastrous. It puts in
35:01
place what a free
35:03
government does is it puts in place
35:06
a set of procedures, elections, free speech
35:08
courts to help secure liberty, fair play,
35:10
and equality of opportunity. So
35:14
a government that opens its borders to
35:16
an invasion of unchecked immigrants and
35:19
so that cartels are camped on our
35:21
border in Camo bringing in fentanyl
35:23
that kills almost a hundred thousand, somewhere between
35:25
70 and a hundred thousand people a year
35:27
and laundering that money through the Chinese Mafia
35:29
who have gotten in here somewhere after bribing
35:31
the Biden family. I don't know how that
35:33
happened. That's
35:36
not really protecting us. That is
35:38
not protecting us. You know, yesterday
35:40
I think it was in New
35:42
York City our president, President
35:44
Rododendron and Bill Clinton
35:46
and Barack Obama were at a fundraiser
35:48
with Lizzo and you know Steve Colbert
35:50
and all this stuff. President
35:53
Trump was at a funeral for a police
35:56
officer who was a father of
35:58
a little baby who had been murdered. murdered by
36:00
a guy who had something like 21 outstanding charges
36:02
against him. That's what President Trump was
36:04
doing because they're not
36:06
enforcing the law in New York. So
36:09
people are not keeping us safe. A
36:11
government that censors Hunter Biden's laptop that
36:13
covers up an influence peddling scheme that
36:15
obviously put the family on the, the
36:17
Biden family on the payroll of the
36:19
communist Chinese that covers up health information
36:22
so that big pharma can make a
36:24
fortune of an untested vaccine that covers
36:26
up dissenting opinions and investigates Elon Musk
36:28
simply because he lets conservatives speak. That's
36:31
not a government that is actually not telling
36:33
us what to believe. A court system that
36:35
charges one side's most popular candidate
36:37
with crimes that no one else on the other
36:39
side is charged with. You know,
36:42
Trump won a big victory this week where an
36:44
appeals court cut his bond on that stupid, you
36:46
know, he overvalued his properties case. They cut it
36:48
from $454 million to $175 million. You
36:54
think like, wait a minute, you know, you cut it by $454
36:56
million. You cut it
36:58
by, I'm sorry, $275 million. You
37:01
want to make a comment on why it was
37:03
that high? Well, no, they don't want to make
37:05
it because obviously it's dishonest. So
37:08
now he has to go to trial for
37:10
paying off to Stormy Daniels to keep her
37:12
mouth shut. None of this stuff is
37:14
happening. The wet for read Zakaria says,
37:17
in fact, the government is introducing a
37:19
new way of living, a way of
37:22
living alone, a way of living without
37:24
reference to morality in the Pacific Northwest.
37:26
You want to adopt the child. You
37:28
have to support, quote, support a foster
37:30
child's soggy, which means his sexual orientation
37:32
and gender identity expression. You have to
37:34
support a child's soggy by using their
37:36
pronouns and chosen name and respecting the
37:38
child's right to privacy concerning their soggy
37:41
and connect a foster child with resources
37:43
that supports and affirms their needs
37:45
regarding race, religion, culture, and so
37:47
they're not allowing us to choose our
37:49
path to meaning. They're telling us their
37:52
path. And it is a moral
37:54
materialist, disgusting, empty, vacuous path. People
37:57
are not going to religious services anymore. Three out of 10.
38:00
people in the United States attend religious services.
38:03
Why? And that's increased since
38:05
what they call the pandemic, but it's
38:07
really the lockdown. We were told not
38:09
to go. So to call this a
38:11
backlash is dishonest. This is
38:13
a takeover of the moral ethical thinking
38:15
and the freedom of thought and the
38:17
freedom of expression that we had here
38:19
that we built this country for. Yes,
38:22
we're individuals, but we wanna be
38:25
free to form associations in church,
38:27
in families, in groups
38:29
that we gather, even groups
38:31
that the government doesn't agree
38:33
with without being investigated by the
38:35
FBI. We wanna be able to stand up for
38:38
what our children are being taught without being investigated
38:40
as terrorists for the FBI. We
38:42
are individuals, but we don't live individually. We
38:45
live in a society. We live together, where
38:47
we die alone in misery. And that is
38:49
what the government is trying to engineer. And
38:51
they don't like the fact that sex is
38:54
not enough to keep us from fighting back.
38:58
You know, when I first started doing GenuCell ads,
39:01
I only half believed what they were saying. And
39:03
then I tried their spot corrector and it worked

Jeremy and I was mostly me

as he was Muslim or I
40:38
was talking about this is like

everything's fine you know And I asked
41:05
spotlights to Nord said the it's the
41:07
nature of despair that doesn't know that
41:09
it's despair and I think that. That
41:12
is something that has happened to us
41:14
since the in the invention of the
41:16
smartphone and social media. Others may pass.
41:18
I believe it is may pass We
41:20
haven't We haven't. Ah,
41:23
a yacht acclimated or self to this
41:25
new technologies. but there's a new book
41:27
out by Jonathan Haidt. Very intelligent guy.
41:29
I really like reading books is gonna
41:31
come on for an interview on at
41:33
a few weeks. I think we've got
41:35
a new book called the Anxious Generation
41:37
how the great rewiring of childhood is
41:39
causing an epidemic of mental illness. And
41:41
he talks about the costs. Of.
41:45
The smartphone. Like. i said
41:47
everything on even good things become was a
41:49
cost and he says the cost of the
41:52
smartphone his time the huge amount of times
41:54
that we spend on at forty hours a
41:56
week for pre teens for teens a thirteen
41:58
to eighteen scotia fifty hours a week. And
42:01
obviously it's worse, of course, for
42:03
poor people, for
42:05
blacks, Latinos, for LGBTQ
42:07
people. So they are more
42:10
and more isolated. And children and adolescents, he says,
42:12
need a lot of time to play with
42:14
each other or just hang out face to face.
42:16
We all remember this from being a kid. Your
42:19
peer group becomes everything to you. That's
42:21
how you move from your parents and
42:23
your family group into society. And now
42:26
they've lost that. And of course they
42:28
lost it even more during the
42:30
lockdowns, during this screw. Let's call it a great
42:32
screw up. That's what we should call it. The
42:34
percentage of 12th graders who said that they got
42:37
together with their friends almost every day dropped sharply
42:39
after 2009. And
42:42
on top of this, the smartphone has increased anxiety
42:44
and cut down on outside time. And this has
42:46
aided parents and authorities to add to their anxiety.
42:48
You know, I've noticed this just personally. I've
42:50
been an outdoorsman all my life and I love hiking.
42:52
I love going into the woods and I don't have
42:55
a good sense of direction. So I'm a good trailfinder.
42:57
I have to be a good trailfinder. I never used
42:59
to have a phone, obviously, before there were iPhones, before
43:01
there were cell phones. I just used to hike
43:03
in the woods. And sometimes I'd lose myself and
43:05
I'd be there at night. I used to go
43:07
fishing down in this reservoir at the bottom of
43:09
a hill in the woods. And sometimes I'd get
43:11
so involved in my fishing, I'd forget that the
43:13
sun was going down. Finding your way in the
43:16
woods at night is extraordinarily difficult, but I never
43:18
worried about it. I knew I found my way.
43:20
I always found my way. Once
43:22
they invented the cell phone, I noticed that I'll
43:24
hardly go to the bathroom without my cell phone because what
43:27
if I get locked in? Because
43:29
now that you have it, you think, well, I'll take it with
43:31
me. I'll make sure. Maybe I'll get a flat tire. So I'm
43:33
just going to the store, but I'll take it with me in
43:35
case I get a flat tire. You go into the woods and
43:37
you think, well, I better take my cell phone in case I
43:39
get lost. I fall and I'm taking the falls in the woods
43:42
and all this stuff. And now
43:44
it increases your anxiety. So hate
43:46
talks about this. And I don't know if this is
43:48
a TED talk. He's talking at the National Summit on
43:50
Education. And he points out
43:52
the way we now treat our children
43:54
looking at a picture of a playground
43:56
of a school in Berkeley. It's cut
43:58
five. This is an
44:01
elementary school in Berkeley and
44:03
you see kids on a playground and there's a sign behind them.
44:05
What does the sign say? Football
44:07
rules. And it gives you rules for how to
44:09
play football. Resolve disagreements
44:12
with rock, paper, scissors. Here's
44:16
the worst one of all. Football. And this is
44:18
touch football because it says only touch, no tackle. Touch
44:21
football can only be played if
44:23
an adult is supervising and refereeing
44:25
the game. Because
44:28
if not, children might learn
44:30
skills of negotiation and conflict resolution
44:33
that are necessary for democratic society.
44:36
Okay, this system, this anxiety makes it harder
44:38
for us to argue, to think, to go
44:40
off on our own, to want to be
44:42
on our own. He talks about what it
44:45
creates as a cycle of incompetence cut-six. What
44:48
schools are doing when they do
44:50
this nonsense is they are creating
44:52
a cycle of incompetence which goes
44:54
like this. Students
44:56
now assume social and physical incompetence of
44:58
children. They can't do anything. They'll get
45:01
hurt if they try. So
45:04
we ban risky play and conflict. We
45:06
don't understand that they're anti-fragile.
45:08
They need risks. They need setbacks. They
45:10
need conflicts. So we ban things that
45:12
would help them grow. Guess what? This
45:15
causes kids to be socially and
45:17
physically incompetent. What effect does that
45:19
have? It validates our assumption
45:22
that they are socially and physically incompetent. Now,
45:26
I love Jonathan Haidt for feeling this
45:28
only happens to children, but no, it's
45:30
happened to us too, right? You make
45:32
people, you assume people are incompetent. You
45:34
don't let them do things. They become
45:36
incompetent. You say, see, I told you,
45:38
you are incompetent. That's the story of
45:41
the shutdown, the pandemic
45:43
shutdown, the great screw-up that
45:45
has destroyed our trust and all the
45:47
people in charge who should leave, every
45:49
single one of them, anyone who is
45:51
involved, should lose his reputation, his office, his
45:54
position, should be gone. They all should be
45:56
gone. None of them is gone, which further
45:58
increases the way we feel about them. that
46:00
we're surrounded by incompetence who hate us. Now
46:02
I've played this, here's a montage I must've
46:04
played now 15 or 20 times. And
46:07
I love it because it's so revelatory.
46:09
This is a montage from our friends
46:11
at Grabian of what the news media
46:13
was saying after Donald Trump got
46:15
COVID, came back, took off his
46:18
mask and said, do not
46:20
let it dominate your life. Don't be afraid of
46:22
it. Don't let it dominate your life. And this
46:24
is the news media, what they said. It
46:27
is just so horrible, so destructive
46:29
to say, I feel better than I have
46:31
in 20 years. But he's
46:33
saying this is so disrespectful. The president
46:35
says it's no big deal. I
46:38
mean, it's outrageous. It is insulting to
46:41
the people who have lost loved ones.
46:43
It is insulting to every American who
46:45
wears a mask. I mean, it's disgraceful,
46:48
Wolf. It's absurd. Don't tell your
46:50
supporters, don't be afraid of COVID.
46:52
Everyone should be afraid of COVID.
46:54
It's okay to be afraid of
46:56
COVID. And it's okay that
46:59
it's dominating your life because it
47:01
has dominated your life. Jake
47:05
Tapper doesn't do well at the last judgment. He's
47:08
just gonna be locked in a room with that
47:10
clip playing over and over again for all of
47:12
eternity. Governor Ron DeSantis,
47:14
who did really well during, I've been reading
47:16
more about this and he did really well
47:18
during the pandemic and better than Trump. He
47:20
did better than almost anybody. He has now
47:23
signed a bill that will prohibit children younger
47:25
than 14 from joining social media in the
47:27
state of Florida. Those who
47:29
are 14 or 15 will need a parent's
47:31
consent before they join a platform. And he
47:34
makes a really interesting point that
47:36
the outdoors are now safer
47:39
than the indoors. It's cut seven. You
47:41
look at young kids and you know
47:43
there's dangers out there. Unfortunately, we've got
47:46
predators who prey on young kids and
47:48
it used to be, well, if
47:50
they're out somewhere, maybe they're not being
47:53
supervised, maybe some predator can strike. Now,
47:56
with things like social media and all this,
47:59
you can have... a kid in the
48:01
house safe, seemingly,
48:03
and then you have
48:05
predators that can get right in there into
48:08
your own home. You could be doing everything
48:11
right, but you know how to get and
48:13
manipulate these different platforms. So
48:15
we really are more unsafe than
48:17
we were, not because
48:19
of the way we're being, not because
48:22
we're being kept inside, but because we're
48:24
being kept inside this little box. You
48:26
know, studies have shown, and I think
48:28
everybody knows this, that negative words spur
48:30
clickbait. You get more clicks
48:32
if you use negative words. So if you
48:34
use words like harm, heartbroken, ugly, troubling, angry,
48:37
you get more clicks. They teach this in journalism school.
48:39
They teach you in journalism school how to get more
48:41
clicks. And this also has a moral point, and this
48:43
is something that a friend of mine said to me,
48:45
but he doesn't like me to use his name. I
48:47
just don't want to act as
48:49
if it were my idea. He pointed
48:51
out that suddenly everybody's using the term
48:54
sex workers to mean whores, to mean
48:56
prostitutes. Now I'm very much against
48:58
this. You know, when they say sex work is
49:00
work, that's what your pimp tells you. Sex work
49:02
is degrading. Sex work is mental illness. It's the
49:04
result of mental illness. Even in
49:07
places like Nevada, and I researched this for
49:09
one of my mystery stories for Damnation Street,
49:11
even in places like Nevada where prostitution is
49:13
legal, the prostitutes still have pimps who beat
49:16
them up and steal their money. Because
49:19
they have an illness, right? This is an illness to
49:21
sell your body, to give your body to a man
49:23
for money. That's not why it was given to you.
49:25
That's not why you should give it to someone else.
49:28
So they teach this in journalism school, and
49:30
it not only erodes our confidence,
49:32
it erodes our morality because they use sex
49:34
workers because sex makes people click. That's why
49:36
they use it. They don't use it because
49:38
they think a prostitute is not mentally ill.
49:40
They use it because sex makes people click.
49:42
So they use the word sex worker. So
49:44
let me sum up these three chapters before
49:46
we get to our final one. We
49:49
have a motivation, sexual pleasure
49:51
without responsibility, to become self-degrading
49:55
people and immoral killers of children
49:57
and abusers of women. A
50:00
motivation to become unchaste, to create
50:02
unchaste women who are not suitable
50:04
for marriage or self-respect and who
50:07
have done things that they now
50:09
regret and can't repent of. Misery,
50:11
recipe for misery. We have a government
50:13
that is not fostering the ground in
50:15
which free men and women gather in
50:18
associations that bring joy like marriage, family,
50:20
and society, and parenthood, and instead is
50:22
pushing an immoral rewrite of human meaning.
50:24
The result is misery. Then we
50:26
have a device that has sucked us out of
50:28
the real world with its
50:30
joys and pains. The real world is
50:32
full of tragedy and comedy and delight
50:35
and love and beauty and has taken
50:37
us into a world where negativity is
50:39
rewarded and positivity is punished and where
50:41
you get the sense that your rage
50:44
and your unhealthiness and your misery is
50:46
the world instead of just this little
50:48
place inside the world. More
50:50
than anything, of course, our religion is under
50:52
siege. We are losing our faith. They're teaching
50:54
us to lose our faith just like they're
50:57
teaching us to relish and
50:59
elevate abortion. That's
51:01
why I want to end with
51:03
a final chapter on faith. The
51:08
Divided States of Biden with Benjamin
51:10
Shapiro has its second episode out
51:12
focused on how fentanyl has become
51:14
America's silent epidemic. Many know
51:16
what fentanyl is, but do you know that it's the
51:18
number one killer of adults ages 18 to 49 claiming
51:20
an average of 295 lives per day? And
51:26
the Biden administration is completely silent. In
51:28
fact, Biden's policies make it easier for
51:30
fentanyl to be distributed and sold across
51:32
the country, allowing it to fall into
51:35
the hands of any American, many of
51:37
them very young. Ben uncovers
51:39
the fentanyl crisis in one of the cities
51:41
most affected in the latest episode of the
51:43
Divided States of Biden, watching the Divided States
51:45
of Biden fentanyl America's
51:47
silent epidemic now exclusively on
51:50
Daily Wire Plus. So
52:00
the people in hell hate me and everybody's yelling at me
52:02
and everyone's yelling, that's fine.
52:04
But Good Friday, the day of despair, does
52:06
come to an end with Easter and I want to make
52:09
it clear. I want to talk about what I believe and
52:11
why I believe it. Now, the thing I was unclear about,
52:13
and this is my fault. I came on, you know, I
52:15
could feel a little tingle in the back of my head
52:17
when I said it, so I probably knew I was being
52:19
unclear. I said at one point,
52:22
Ben Shapiro is in such a network of
52:24
relationships that finding Christ would tear his life
52:26
apart. And people took that to mean that
52:28
I thought he shouldn't do it or that
52:31
you shouldn't risk that for Christ. Now, I've
52:33
given up a great deal in finding
52:35
Christ, not just friends, but money and
52:38
loved ones who don't associate with me
52:40
anymore because of my finding
52:42
Christ. That was not what I was saying. And
52:45
if I was unclear about that, my fault, because
52:47
good people, this took me too. A lot of other
52:49
people just distorting what I said. What
52:51
I meant was that was my
52:54
personal observation that Ben, in this
52:56
network he's in of relationships, is
52:58
doing great work. And I deduced
53:00
from that. It's not theology. It's
53:02
my personal observation and
53:04
deduction. I deduced from that that God had
53:06
put him in that place for a purpose
53:08
because I believe he's doing great and important
53:10
work in that place and doesn't—he's not ready
53:12
for him to leave and God will take care
53:15
of him, but still, this is where God was
53:17
put. Like I said, personal observation,
53:19
and that made me personally believe that God
53:21
was using him for the purpose just like
53:23
Jordan Peterson, and that's not a theological point.
53:25
That's just a personal judgment of the real
53:28
facts on the ground. But I
53:30
said something else that made people upset, and
53:33
this I stand by absolutely. I
53:35
said when I see God using Ben or when I
53:38
see him using Jordan Peterson, where they are, I'm
53:40
not worried about their immortal souls. I'm not
53:42
worried that God will abandon
53:45
them, having sent them into the field where they're
53:47
doing great work. And I'm
53:50
going to explain that in
53:52
terms—I want to explain that in terms—I'm going to explain
53:54
my theology. And people—you know, I've told you often, I'm
53:56
not a theologian. I'm just a believer. And some people
53:58
say, well, you can't have that. a theology. If you're
54:01
not a theologian, you just have to read the catechism
54:03
or go to the pastor. But that's
54:05
like saying you can't have a philosophy if you're not
54:07
a philosopher. Everyone has a philosophy. In fact, everyone has
54:09
a theology. And some just follow along with the catechism,
54:11
and they believe what they're told. I read the Bible
54:13
every day. I read a lot of
54:16
great theology, and I have beliefs that are on my
54:18
own. And they're not unique,
54:20
but they are my own, and I will
54:23
defend them. And I want to defend them today because I don't
54:25
often read from the Bible on the air. So
54:27
it sometimes sounds like I'm just making stuff up. Here's
54:30
where I am. I'm an Anglican Catholic, and that means
54:32
I'm Catholic. I believe in the Nicene Creed, but I'm
54:34
not attached to the Vatican. So the Pope can say
54:36
something I disagree with. There are many things that Roman
54:38
Catholics believe that I don't believe. Every week I go
54:41
to church, I say the Nicene Creed. That's the central
54:43
statement of Christianity. For most churches, even Protestant churches,
54:45
I believe in one God and three persons, Father,
54:47
Son, and Holy Ghost. I believe that Jesus was
54:49
incarnate from the Virgin Mary and the Holy Spirit.
54:52
I believe he was crucified. I believe he was resurrected,
54:54
that it will come in glory to judge the living
54:56
and the dead, one baptism. You know the Nicene Creed,
54:58
probably. I believe in every word of
55:00
that. I don't have to cross my fingers when I'm saying that
55:02
that's what I believe. That's who I am. That is the
55:05
core of my beliefs. But there are other
55:07
things that are
55:09
controversial, and I have an opinion on them. And
55:11
in the Anglican Church, you don't have to believe
55:13
them. They're sometimes called pious beliefs. You're allowed to
55:16
believe in them. You can't go wrong by believing
55:18
them, but you don't have to. One
55:20
of them is the perpetual virginity of
55:22
Mary. I'm not going to discuss this at length.
55:24
I'm just going to say, I don't believe in
55:26
it. I don't believe that the
55:29
scripture upholds
55:31
it. I don't believe the scripture describes it.
55:33
But this is something that drives people nuts.
55:35
I made a joke in the truth and
55:37
beauty that when I have Protestants
55:39
and Catholics over and they start arguing about this,
55:41
I'm afraid to go inside and refill the pretzel
55:44
bowl because I'm afraid I'll come back to the
55:46
patio and they'll have killed each other. They'll restarted
55:48
the 30 years war. This is something people disagree
55:50
with very passionately. I believe it's an important theological
55:52
point, and I have, I've stated my opinion on
55:55
it, but I Totally respect other people.
55:57
I'm going to tell you the honest truth. In The
55:59
End. And. I. Don't really care.
56:01
I didn't know the woman. I don't
56:03
know what she was doing in our
56:05
personal lives. The Joseph Ethics important interesting
56:07
topic. But. I don't think it's going
56:10
to be on the final exam. I don't
56:12
think that that's what God is looking for
56:14
from me or anybody else that we get
56:16
our maybe from some people were precinct theologians
56:18
but the we get our theology in the
56:20
details of Ozzie Ozzie exactly right Transom stance,
56:22
nation the same way to people have killed
56:24
each other over it's Isaacs is important issue.
56:26
I both have my Billie sites but in
56:28
the and I don't think that's the final
56:30
exam. I don't think that's what our being
56:32
judged and so on. plan light about it.
56:34
I have no problem embracing somebody who disagrees
56:36
with me about it's maybe I'm wrong, maybe
56:38
the the. Judgment will be a short answer.
56:40
Quiz Young Did you know this? Maybe it
56:42
will be the catechism. I don't know, but
56:44
I don't believe that that is not how
56:47
I lived. That's what I don't believe hear
56:49
something else. Had very much believe. that is
56:51
difference in some people. I believe in doing
56:53
my job and weaving God trusting gods to
56:55
do his. I don't have firm opinions about
56:57
who will be saved on the last days
56:59
because no one is gonna ask my opinion
57:01
ever. I get no votes. All I do
57:03
know is that it's going to be perfect.
57:05
God will be perfect, Is justice, will be
57:08
perfect. His mercy. Will be perfect. He
57:10
hasn't asked my hope he doesn't need my
57:12
help so I don't. Church where other people
57:14
will spend eternity not my job. I felt
57:16
one job this I see its which to
57:19
com before God every day as Mit myself.
57:22
To. Be changed to tell got the truth to
57:24
open myself up to him and let him make
57:26
The changes in me says he wants to make
57:28
and I can feel that I know the way
57:30
it works. I you're moving toward I believe the
57:32
image of God within you which is different than
57:35
the image of god with and everyone else. That's
57:37
why you're and individuals and will. I find this
57:39
every day in his own good time. He opens
57:41
a space for me to move into and they'll
57:43
have to use my will to move into. When
57:47
I do think of judgment, When.
57:49
i didn't have some people who are universalist they
57:51
believe everyone will be saved some people believe only
57:53
those were in the catholic church will be say
57:55
some people believe that it doesn't matter because it's
57:57
all predestined all as such I
58:00
believe that I don't know. I'm absolutely positive that
58:02
I don't know. But this is what I think
58:04
when I think about judgment and where people stand.
58:08
Here's Jesus Christ. You remember
58:10
him, right? He was speaking in Matthew 7. He
58:13
says, Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord,
58:16
shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who
58:18
does the will of my Father in heaven. Many
58:21
will say to me in that day, Lord,
58:23
Lord, have we not prophesied in your name and
58:25
cast out demons in your name and done
58:27
many wonders in your name? And then I
58:29
will declare to them, I never
58:31
knew you. Depart from me
58:33
you who practice lawlessness. I never knew you. He
58:35
called me Lord. He said I was king. He said
58:38
Christ is king. I never knew you. It doesn't matter.
58:40
Even when he said it on X, I never knew
58:42
you. Here's something else Jesus says in Matthew 25. When
58:45
the Son of Man comes in His glory and all the
58:47
holy angels with Him, then He will sit
58:49
on the throne of His glory. All the nations will
58:52
be gathered before Him and He will separate them, one
58:54
from another as a shepherd divides his sheep from the
58:56
goats. The sheep of His followers, the sheep of the
58:58
people that He is going to accept into the kingdom.
59:00
And He'll set the sheep on His right hand, the goats on His left,
59:03
and the king will say to those on His right hand, Come,
59:05
you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom
59:07
prepared for you from the foundation of the world,
59:09
for I was hungry and you gave me
59:11
food. I was thirsty and you gave me
59:13
drink. I was a stranger and you took
59:15
me in. I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick
59:17
and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to
59:19
me. And the righteous answer, listen to
59:22
their answer, Lord, when
59:24
did we see you hungry and feed you? We're
59:26
thirsty and give you drink. When did we see you a stranger and
59:28
take you in or naked and clothed you? When did we see you
59:30
sicker in prison and come to you? And
59:32
the king will answer and say to them,
59:34
I say to you, in as much
59:36
as you did it to one of the least of
59:39
these, my brethren, you did it to me. Right?
59:42
So what does that mean? The righteous didn't even know what
59:44
they were doing. They didn't know they were serving the king.
59:46
They didn't know they were being good to him
59:48
or doing what he wanted them to do. They
59:50
weren't aware. They just did it. Now, this means
59:52
something, right? It means that it
59:54
was not about what they did. It was not about
59:56
their good deeds. It was about who they were. He
1:00:00
says something to a Samaritan lady, I believe in the
1:00:02
Gospel of John. The Samaritans were not of the same
1:00:04
bloodline to the Jews and they had become Jews later
1:00:06
and they didn't get the doctrines right. And
1:00:08
he says to the Samaritan lady,
1:00:10
he says, you Samaritans worship what you
1:00:13
do not know. We worship
1:00:15
what we do know for salvation is
1:00:17
from the Jews. You
1:00:20
don't know what you're worshiping. You're not getting
1:00:22
it right, you don't worship it. But when
1:00:24
Jesus says, love your neighbor, and
1:00:26
somebody says to him, what does that mean, what's
1:00:28
my neighbor? He tells a story, right, he tells
1:00:30
a parable. He tells a story about a man
1:00:32
who gets mugged and his line injured on the
1:00:34
side of the road and a priest goes by
1:00:36
him. Now this is a guy who's saying all
1:00:39
the right, he knows all the right things, he
1:00:41
knows all the rules, he's got the theology down
1:00:43
pat and he walks past the guy who's been
1:00:45
mugged. And then a Levite, he's the guy who
1:00:47
does the ceremonies in the temple, he goes by,
1:00:49
but he can't do it because he's on
1:00:51
his iPhone saying Christ is king, you know, but
1:00:53
he's not watching the skyline by the side of
1:00:56
the road. But a Samaritan who worships what he
1:00:58
does not know, goes by and takes
1:01:01
the man to the inn, binds his wounds, gives the
1:01:03
innkeeper money, says, listen, I gotta go do my business,
1:01:05
but I'm gonna come back, let him run
1:01:07
up a bill, if he runs up a bill, I'll pay for
1:01:09
him. And Jesus says, be like him,
1:01:11
be like the guy who worships what he
1:01:13
doesn't know, he's not worshiping right, but
1:01:16
he does, he is, it's not what
1:01:18
he does, it's who he is. He doesn't
1:01:20
even think about it, he just does what
1:01:22
he does. He loves that person. So
1:01:25
what is it about the Samaritan? It's
1:01:28
not his acts of charity, it's not, it's who he is.
1:01:30
And how do I know this? It's because of one of
1:01:32
the most famous passages in the Bible and one of the
1:01:34
greatest pieces of writing in the English language. It's
1:01:37
1 Corinthians 13. And
1:01:39
you've all heard it because you've all heard it
1:01:41
at weddings, but listen to it carefully, listen to
1:01:44
what Paul says, okay? If
1:01:46
I speak in the tongues of men and of angels but
1:01:48
do not have love, agape love, he's talking about the kind
1:01:50
of love that makes a Samaritan pull over to the side
1:01:52
of the road and help this guy. He
1:01:55
says, if I do not have agape love, I'm a
1:01:57
resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. the
1:02:00
gift of prophecy and can fathom
1:02:02
all mysteries and all knowledge if I
1:02:04
have a faith that can
1:02:07
move mountains. That's a faith in Christ he's
1:02:09
talking about. If I have a faith that
1:02:11
can move mountains but I do not have
1:02:13
agape love, I am nothing. If
1:02:16
I give all I possess to the poor and
1:02:18
give over my body the hardship to martyrdom, but
1:02:21
do not have agape love, I gain nothing. If
1:02:24
you have faith that can move mountains, give all your
1:02:26
money to the poor, you're doing good deeds and
1:02:28
you have faith and you're going to church,
1:02:31
you believe, you understand all
1:02:34
the mysteries, you're a better theologian than I am, you
1:02:36
got all this theology but you don't have agape, you're
1:02:39
not 80% there, you just need a little agape
1:02:41
to get over that last space, you're not 50%
1:02:43
there, you know, you're just halfway but you gotta
1:02:45
have agape. You have
1:02:48
nothing, zippo, right?
1:02:50
You have nothing without agape
1:02:52
love. That's I think the
1:02:54
transformation that God is looking
1:02:56
for. You
1:02:58
know, you didn't let God do
1:03:00
the work. He was so busy arguing about
1:03:02
Mary's sex life and transubstantiation and what you
1:03:04
were supposed to say online and what you
1:03:07
were supposed to declare, you didn't have in
1:03:09
your heart the agape love, so
1:03:11
you have nothing and Jesus says,
1:03:13
I do not know you, I
1:03:15
do not know you. That's how I read the
1:03:17
gospel. That's what I think it means. That's what
1:03:19
I think God is looking for from me. That's
1:03:21
the only thing I have to contribute because I
1:03:23
have no vote on the judgment. I have no
1:03:25
vote on the judgment. I think he's looking
1:03:27
for me day by day, little by
1:03:30
little in his time, not mine, to transform
1:03:32
myself into the image of God which is
1:03:34
the image of agape love because we know
1:03:36
that God is love. And
1:03:38
so I know this
1:03:41
makes people angry and I think it makes them feel
1:03:43
less special and less protected in their faith. I'm
1:03:46
just gonna tell it to you honestly. I
1:03:48
think it's best to worship what you know. I do. I think
1:03:50
it's, first of all, it's just enlightening and it lets you know
1:03:52
a lot of things, but I don't have a vote on
1:03:55
the last judgment and
1:03:57
neither does the pope and neither does Nick Flammer.
1:04:00
or Jeremy Warring or anyone else. There's
1:04:02
a qualification for voting on the last
1:04:04
judgment and it's not photo ID, you
1:04:06
have to be crucified in the act
1:04:08
of being the incarnate God. If you
1:04:10
didn't do that, you have no vote,
1:04:12
right? There's only one person has a
1:04:14
vote. And I believe the judgment will
1:04:17
be perfect. And I
1:04:19
believe it will be those who come
1:04:21
before the King and say, we called you Lord, we
1:04:23
cast out demons, we had faith that could move mountains,
1:04:25
we posted Christ as King on X, and Jesus may
1:04:27
say to them, I do not know you. Maybe not,
1:04:30
maybe everybody will be saved. But
1:04:32
I believe there will be people, there will
1:04:34
be some to whom the
1:04:36
King says, inherit the kingdom because you serve me
1:04:38
and they will say, served you. We didn't even
1:04:40
know you. We don't even know you. And
1:04:43
the King will say, well, remember when you spoke
1:04:45
up for the women who were
1:04:47
raped to death on October 7th, remember when you
1:04:50
used your powerful voice on the daily wire to
1:04:52
stand up for babies who were killed and
1:04:55
their parents who were killed in front of their children. Remember
1:04:57
when you did that? That was me
1:04:59
you were talking for. You were speaking up for me. And
1:05:01
you know, while I'm pissing people off, while I'm pissing
1:05:03
people off, there may be a Muslim guy behind him.
1:05:06
And he says, while you were speaking up for
1:05:09
the children dying now in Gaza, when I'm speaking
1:05:11
up justly for them, you were speaking
1:05:13
up for me. So
1:05:15
I'm not going to judge because I'm not the judge.
1:05:17
I'm going to go on trying to reach the image
1:05:19
of God within me and to see the image of
1:05:21
God in the guy across from
1:05:23
me, no matter what he is, because that's
1:05:25
my job, that's my assignment. That's what I
1:05:27
was told to do. So
1:05:30
this is Good Friday. This is the day when even
1:05:32
the saints despaired and panicked and ran away and abandoned
1:05:34
God because despair is a
1:05:36
self-fulfilling prophecy. But on Easter, Mary
1:05:39
Magdalene went to Christ's tomb and
1:05:41
it was empty. And she began to weep because
1:05:43
she thought maybe they'd stolen the body. And she didn't know
1:05:46
where it was. And she
1:05:48
turned around and she saw Jesus standing in the
1:05:50
garden and she didn't know who it was.
1:05:52
Now this is a woman who knew him well in
1:05:55
life. She knew him well. She had saved her, cast
1:05:57
out demons from her, saved her as the way she
1:05:59
was. Legend goes from prostitution, she
1:06:02
didn't recognize him. She thought he was
1:06:05
the gardener. She thought the guy was the gardener
1:06:07
wandering around and then he
1:06:09
spoke her name and
1:06:11
then her eyes were opened. So
1:06:14
I am not worried about Ben or Jordan
1:06:16
or a lot of my friends who are in a
1:06:18
different place than I am religiously. The
1:06:21
righteous in the end may not
1:06:23
look like what you think. The
1:06:25
saints may be people you despise, like
1:06:28
the Jews despise the Samaritans, like many
1:06:30
people who are Christians now who call
1:06:32
themselves Christians despise the Jews. They
1:06:35
might have met Jesus on the street and not known it was
1:06:37
him, but gave him what they had to give him. They
1:06:40
reached out to him, they gave him what he needed, they
1:06:42
served the least of them and there will come a time,
1:06:44
there will come a time in his
1:06:47
good time when he speaks their
1:06:49
name and their eyes will be open and
1:06:51
their knees will bow to the king. So
1:06:55
to the people screaming at me on X,
1:06:58
I can tell you this, I can guarantee, here's something
1:07:00
I can guarantee you, that's just what I believe, but
1:07:02
here's something I can guarantee you. I am not worth
1:07:05
destroying your life with rage and hatred, which I can
1:07:07
see you doing it, not worth it. Let
1:07:10
it go, let it go because you do not know, you
1:07:12
do not know who you're gonna meet on
1:07:15
the last day and you do not know who is going
1:07:17
to inherit the kingdom and it may not be
1:07:19
people you like. So my advice
1:07:21
to you, but also to all of you who
1:07:23
are my friends and my listeners, my love, have
1:07:26
a wonderful, wonderful Easter because
1:07:29
whether you know his name or not, Christ
1:07:32
has risen, he has risen
1:07:34
indeed. I'm
1:07:36
