| So the West is falling. | ||
| There's really no way to sugarcoat that. | ||
| I think if you've been watching the show, if you've been reading headlines, you recognize that something has gone really awry in the West. | ||
| And we are just now managing a steep cultural decline. | ||
| That's kind of what's happening everywhere you go. | ||
| You just go, how do we have any power left in the world? | ||
| America has become a repeat joke. | ||
| It's not just America. It's the entire Western hemisphere. | ||
| And one thing almost broke me. | ||
| I'll tell you basically, it was just a crazy week of headlines in America and in the West and weighing them against the East. | ||
| So let me just show you some headlines that went out last week about, well, let's start with Russia. | ||
| Here it is in Reuters. Putin says Russia's new Sarmat nuclear missiles soon ready for deployment. | ||
| Saw that headline. I was like, wow, that is serious. | ||
| He is actually moving nuclear warheads into Belarus. | ||
| Here's another headline from the Eastern Hemisphere. | ||
| This one's from CNN. It says, Putin blames Ukraine for lack of talks as African leaders press for peace. | ||
| Okay, that sounds like global leaders. | ||
| It's a very serious debate. Here's another headline. | ||
| Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban calls for fast accession of Bosnia into the EU. Okay, that's pretty serious. | ||
| That's a serious, heavy-hitting headline. | ||
| Here's another one. This one's about Belarus. | ||
| Belarus will not hesitate to use nukes if aggressed. | ||
| Lukashenko, wow, that's crazy. | ||
| That is serious stuff that is what you expect to read when you are following politics. | ||
| Well, in that same week, here was a headline about our president, Joe Biden. | ||
| It says, Okay. | ||
| Cool. Well, it can't be that bad. | ||
| Let's roll the old footage. | ||

Take a look. Happy Pride Month. | |
| Happy Pride Year. | ||
| Happy Pride Life. | ||
| Yeah! Transgender children. | ||
| You are beautiful. You are heard. | ||
| You belong. You are understood. | ||
| You are loved. And you belong. | ||
| One of the bravest, the most inspiring people I've ever known. | ||
| I mean, you're welcome. | ||
| Good folks. So yes, Putin is moving nuclear warheads to Belarus, and our president is saying that the most inspiring and bravest people that he knows are LGBTQ transgendered individuals. | ||
| Those are the most bravest people that he possibly knows. | ||
| Okay, okay. | ||
| How much worse could it possibly have gotten? | ||

Topless at the White House? | |
| I am feminine. | ||
| I guess we all follow the story, Topless at the White House. | ||
| I really thought that one was going to drive me to my wits' end. | ||
| I didn't even know. | ||
| I just think about how leaders overseas are thinking what China is thinking when they're assessing these things that are happening on the White House lawn. | ||
| It just seems like an opportunity. | ||
| They're probably thinking, this is a perfect time for us to invade America and take it over. | ||
| Maybe Japan's over there going, hey, maybe we should just invade America and take America over. | ||
| And because obviously there's no quality in their culture. | ||
| But really, guys, when I thought it couldn't get any work, I don't know, worse, I don't know what it is. | ||
| This column broke me. | ||
| It really broke me. | ||
| I was reading that Boris Johnson was going to start writing columns for the Daily Mail, and I thought that's interesting because when somebody leaves office and Especially somebody who led Brexit, right? | ||
| Who actually led the UK's exit from the EU. He says, I'm going to start writing a column. | ||
| I go, well, that must be interesting because that was a big deal. | ||
| Brexit was a very big deal. | ||
| No one thought it could get done. It got done. | ||
| And it got done under Boris Johnson. | ||
| So I said, wow, obviously his first column is going to be something that we should all be paying attention to. | ||
| It's going to be interesting. What was it like? | ||
| in the halls of Parliament. | ||
| Well, here's the column that he went for as his first column. | ||
| The wonder drug I hoped would stop my 11.30 p.m. | ||
| fridge raids for cheddar and chorizo didn't work for me, but I still believe it could change the lives of millions. | ||
| I thought I read it wrong. | ||
| I said, there's no way he's about to write a column about Wigowi, | ||
| in case this is not Boris Kardashian. | ||
| That would be ridiculous. | ||
| Obviously, a former prime minister is not going to actually write a column about him injecting himself | ||
| with some glu-tide to make himself be skinny. | ||
| And obviously, ladies and gentlemen, I was wrong because the West is falling. | ||
| And so now everyone's a Kardashian, even Boris Johnson sitting prime ministers. | ||
| How much can you display? | ||
| Take your top off on the White House lawn or write about what Govy and how you're puking into toilets. | ||
| I'm going to read you some excerpts. | ||
| He writes, I first thought that something was up when I saw that a certain member of the cabinet had miraculously changed his appearance. | ||
| He had acquired a new jawline. | ||
| His neck emerged without effort from his collar. | ||
| When he rose from his chair at the cabinet table, the chair no longer tried to cling | ||
| longingly about his hips. | ||
| If an otherwise healthy middle-aged man displays sudden weight loss, I reasoned, there are | ||
| only two possible explanations. | ||
| Either he has fallen hopelessly in love, or else he is about to mount a Tory leadership | ||
| bid. | ||
| Start talking about his own weight and how he struggles with that. | ||
| He writes, He twanged his braces again. | ||
| There was no argument. | ||
| It was a miracle. | ||
| He then talks about the history of the drug a little bit and him consulting with his doctor about going on to it. | ||
| He goes on to write,"...say goodbye to that unconquerable mid-morning lust for a bacon sandwich. | ||
| No longer will you stand over the children waiting for them to push aside their bowls of pasta and then ruthlessly scoff whatever they have left." I was going to start to resemble a chiseled whippet. | ||
| Doctor wrote the prescription. I zoomed to the chemists, and though I was frankly a bit taken back by the cost, what the hell, I said to myself, think of the benefits to health. | ||
| So for weeks, I jabbed my stomach, and for weeks, it worked effortlessly. | ||
| I pushed aside the puddings and the second helpings. | ||
| Wasn't it amazing, I said to myself, how little food you really need? | ||
| I must have been losing four or five pounds a week, maybe more, when all at once, it started to go wrong. | ||
| I don't know why exactly, but Maybe it was something to do with constantly flying around the world and changing time zones, but I started to dread those injections because they were making me feel ill. | ||
| One minute, I would be fine. | ||
| The next minute, I would be talking to Ralph on the big white phone. | ||
| And I am afraid that I decided that I couldn't go on. | ||
| For now, I am back to exercise and willpower. | ||
| But I look at my colleagues, leaner but not hungrier. | ||
| And I hope that if science can do it for them, maybe one day it can help me and everyone else. | ||
| He concludes by saying... | ||
| I see nothing morally wrong in using these drugs to help you lose weight any more than it's wrong to use an electrically assisted bicycle to get up the hill. | ||
| Even for us fatties, it turns out there is such a thing as satiety, and science has found it. | ||
| There it is, you guys. | ||
| This column, it broke me. | ||
| I really just said to myself, we're done. | ||
| There's nothing left that the West has to give. | ||
| I mean, you can't even make something up like this, that if former prime minister decides to write a column, and this is what he decides to focus on, him throwing up in a toilet because he wanted to look slim like other people that he was seeing in the cabinet. | ||
| This should not happen. | ||
| We are not serious people. | ||
| We have stopped being serious people. | ||
| I can't even fathom what would happen if... | ||
| Putin hosted a gathering at the Kremlin and a transgendered individual took off their top to show their surgically enhanced breasts. | ||
| I can't even imagine. I would assume he would kill the person. | ||
| I don't know. It's Putin. I don't know if it would just be like immediately an execution for causing such embarrassment to the country. | ||
| We have no shame. | ||
| Literally, the West has lost all shame. | ||
| We are utterly shameless from the top to the bottom. | ||
| We have absolutely no dignity, no respect for ourselves. | ||
| Women don't have respect for ourselves. | ||
| The men don't have respect for themselves. | ||
| And least of all, the leaders of our countries have absolutely no respect for themselves or the people that they serve. | ||
| So this column infuriated me. | ||
| It basically broke me. |
