| All right, happy Thursday, everybody. | |
| So I've got good news and bad news. | |
| The bad news is that we are edging very closely to a civil war. | |
| I'm serious, a true constitutional crisis happening at our border. | |
| The good news is that we have a heroic, steadfast, fortified leader who will help us through these hard times. | |
| Take a listen to Joe Biden the other night at a rally. | |
| Don't mess with the men in America unless you want to get the benefits. | |
| Actually, I didn't get that. | |
| Can we do that again? Don't mess with the men in America unless you want to get the benefits. | |
| Yeah, no, that actually doesn't sound good. | |
| So, just bad news today, guys. | |
| Plus, later on in the show, we're going to discuss graphic images of Taylor Swift that are now sweeping the internet, showing her in a series of explicit acts nude. | |
| And no, it's not real. | |
| It's actually just AI. And I'll tell you why I think it's a good thing. | |
| All that and more today coming up on Candace Owens. | |
| You know, I'm gonna be honest, back in 2015 when Donald Trump was saying, | |
| build the wall and everyone was going, build that wall, build that wall. | |
| I didn't really feel one way or the other about it. | |
| Obviously, I was just kind of waking up, coming out of my liberal dream state. | |
| And while people were really upset and said that the chant was xenophobic and it was racist | |
| and things of that nature, I didn't really feel, again, one way or the other. | |
| I just kind of thought, OK, it's not necessarily a bad thing to say that we want to have a | |
| fortified border. | |
| But also, I don't really understand why he's pressing on this one particular issue. | |
| I think a lot of people felt that way. | |
| And I think a lot of people fell for the leftist argument that he was just being xenophobic | |
| and he was just being racist. | |
| But a lot has changed since 2015. | |
| And I think all of us are recognizing that something very serious is happening at our | |
| borders. | |
| I mean, just a couple of weeks ago, we covered the story out of New York City. | |
| You're actually having students that are made to work remote from school, remote learning | |
| from school, because they are allowing illegal immigrants to occupy their schools, buses, | |
| picking them up. | |
| They need a place to live. | |
| So your children, your students should stay at home. | |
| And we are going to make sure that we are able to house illegals. | |
| Obviously, ridiculous. | |
| Obviously we are facing a crisis. | |
| Even leftist politicians who once said, oh, we welcome all illegal immigrants. | |
| There's no such thing as an illegal alien. | |
| Everybody's just a person are now going, no, we've got problems and we expect the federal government to help us solve them. | |
| I want to say this. Defending our borders is a basic and fundamental expectation. | |
| We expect, obviously, that the federal government is focused on defending our borders from foreign threats. | |
| And when I say it's fundamental, I mean it is the very reason that most states agreed to join the union in the first place, for protection from foreign threats. | |
| Think about the Federalist Papers, the collection of essays from our nation's founding fathers, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, James Madison. | |
| Back in 1788, they were trying to urge the ratification of the Constitution, but they also grappled with a series of questions. | |
| First and foremost, why did they even want to have a central authority in the first place? | |
| Because the nation was extremely young, and we needed to make sure that we were able to keep those foreign threats at bay. | |
| But those questions they asked, okay, well, what would happen if that central authority, the federal government, then became too big and became too powerful? | |
| What are we going to do to guard against that threat? | |
| And that's where state rights come into the equation. | |
| States being allowed to have their own constitutions and their own authorities to ensure that our federal government does not abuse its power. | |
| And lately we are understanding just how brilliant our founding fathers were. | |
| That they were able to foresee that circumstance, to understand that the federal government could grow too big and expansive. | |
| I mean, think about the times of COVID, the tyranny of COVID, the federal government saying, you're not allowed to work. | |
| You are forced to bask up. | |
| Well, you know what? We also want to force you to get this experimental vaccine. | |
| And then you saw states that stood up to that and said no. | |
| States like Tennessee, where I am very proud to live, And Florida. | |
| DeSantis was an absolute hero during that period of COVID tyranny. | |
| Well, it seems like, once again, the federal government is abusing its power, and this time we're not sure to what end. | |
| I want you to take a look at this footage of what's happening at our nation's border. | |
| Thousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants is what you are looking at, just crossing into the United States. | |
| Here is another video. | |
| This time it's just migrant families that are taking over Boston Airport. | |
| Take a listen. Getting a stunning look at the migrant crisis in our state. | |
| This piece of video shows dozens of migrants lined up sleeping on the floor of Terminal E at Logan Airport. | |
| Last week, our camera captured dozens of families sleeping on the floor of Terminal E at Logan. | |
| Little ones toddling across the floor and babies. | |
| The issue isn't new. | |
| Massport officials said migrant families were sleeping in Logan in November. | |
| But the numbers are startling. | |
| Some estimate more than 100 folks. | |
| So our federal government is paying to transport migrant families in the skies. | |
| And by the way, you're paying for it. | |
| I'm paying for it. We're all paying for it. | |
| Again, why are they doing that? | |
| We're not sure. What we are sure of, though, is that they're able to fly without IDs. | |
| In fact, we covered this in past episodes. | |
| But these migrants are being encouraged to dump their IDs before they cross over into the United States. | |
| We have no idea where these people are coming from. | |
| So if you're under the delusion that these are just Mexicans looking for a better chance at life, you need to wake up to the fact that that is not the truth anymore. | |
| In fact, many of these people are flying from other countries to Mexico because they know that our border is open. | |
| Take a look at this video. | |
| Absolutely terrifying. | |
| This is a migrant that is lacing a threat to Americans when people ask him, who are you? | |
| Where are you coming from? | |
| If you are smart enough, you will know who I am. | |
| But you are really not smart enough to know who I am. | |
| But soon you're gonna know who I am. | |
| Soon you're going to know who I am. | |
| Did that accent sound to you like a Mexican accent? | |
| It didn't sound like one to me. | |
| The internet sleuthed and tried to determine who exactly that person was because, obviously, it seems like he is threatening us. | |
| It is being speculated that that individual is Mabsam Samadab. | |
| Mabsam Samadab leads the Azerbaijan Islamic Party, and they have close ties to Hezbollah. | |
| So yes, it is being speculated that at this moment, terrorists, people that hate the United States, are being allowed over the border. | |
| And what they're going to do? | |
| Well, maybe exact revenge. | |
| But this doesn't seem to concern the federal government at all. | |
| In fact, now that states are starting to say, we need to do something about this, the Biden | |
| administration is suing those states to stop them. | |
| That's what's going on in Texas right now. | |
| Just to give you a roundabout number, 6.2 million migrants have illegally crossed into | |
| the United States, and obviously Texas is a massive border state. | |
| So the governor of Texas ordered for the National Guard to put up razor wire, to install razor | |
| wire on the border to stop this influx of migration. | |
| Why would the federal government have a problem with that? | |
| They did. The Biden DOJ sued them to stop that razor wire from being put up. | |
| And then what happened was that lawsuit went all the way to the Supreme Court. | |
| And the Supreme Court decided in favor of the Biden administration. | |
| They said, nope, you have to take down that razor wire because the feds are saying that they need that stretch of land to remain open. | |
| Now, obviously, Texas did not take kindly to that. | |
| Hey, we are Texas. We joined the union in 1845 under the expectation that you would provide us protection from foreign threats. | |
| You have now failed when it comes to your side of the deal. | |
| Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued this official statement regarding the Supreme Court decision | |
| and how they would be responding. The federal government has broken the compact between the | |
| United States and the states. The executive branch of the United States has a constitutional duty | |
| to enforce federal laws protecting states, including immigration laws on the books right now. | |
| President Biden has refused to enforce those laws and has President Biden has refused to enforce those laws and has | |
| even violated them. | |
| The result is that he has smashed records for illegal immigration. Despite | |
| having been put on notice in a series of letters, one of which I delivered to him | |
| by hand, President Biden has ignored Texas's demand that he perform his | |
| constitutional duties. Under President Biden's lawless border policies, more | |
| than 6 million illegal immigrants have crossed our southern border in just | |
| three years. | |
| That is more than the population of 33 different states in this country. | |
| This illegal refusal to protect the states has inflicted unprecedented harm on the people all across the United States. | |
| James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and the other visionaries who wrote the U.S. Constitution foresaw that states should not be left to the mercy of a lawless president who does nothing to stop external threats like cartels smuggling millions of illegal immigrants across the border. | |
| That is why the framers included both Article 4, which promises that the federal government | |
| shall protect each state against invasion, and Article 1, which acknowledges | |
| the state's sovereign interest in protecting their borders. | |
| The failure of the Biden administration to fulfill the duties imposed by Article 4 | |
| has triggered Article 1, Clause 3, which reserves to this state the right of self-defense. | |
| For these reasons, I have already declared an invasion under Article 1, Clause 3, to invoke Texas's | |
| constitutional authority to defend and protect itself. | |
| That authority is the supreme law of the land and supersedes any federal statutes to the contrary. | |
| The Texas National Guard, the Texas Department of Public Safety, | |
| and other Texas personnel are acting on that authority, as well as state law, to secure the Texas border. | |
| Wow. | |
| So what we have here is Texas is saying, you've abused your power and we are not listening. | |
| We are now sending our National Guard to defend the border. | |
| What happens next? Is Biden going to send federal agents to shoot Americans on behalf of allowing illegal immigrants to flood into our spaces, into our neighborhoods, into our schools? | |
| Seems unlikely, especially since other states are now saying that they stand with Texas. | |
| Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida tweeted this. | |
| If the Constitution really made states powerless to defend themselves against invasion, it wouldn't have been ratified in the first place and Texas would have never joined the union when it did. | |
| And he wasn't the only one. | |
| Glenn Youngkin of Virginia tweeted this. | |
| Virginia stands with Texas. | |
| Greg Abbott is doing the job Joe Biden and his border czar refuse to do to secure our border. | |
| The Biden administration has turned every state into a border state. | |
| We must stop the flow of fentanyl, save lives, and secure our southern border. | |
| Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma tweeted this, simply, Oklahoma stands with Texas. | |
| Governor Kristi Noem of South Dakota followed and said, Brian Kemp of Georgia wrote, enough is enough. Our southern border is in crisis thanks to the Biden administration's refusal to do their job. | |
| Greg Abbott and the state of Texas have our full support. | |
| As I said, this is a constitutional crisis that is happening right now and you need to | |
| be aware of it. | |
| It will be Biden's move next, but suffice it to say that I stand with Texas. | |
| This is exactly what needs to happen. | |
| If you are not awake now to the crisis that we are facing at our border, then I hope that | |
| listening to this will make you aware of it. | |
| Because what is happening today is going to impact tomorrow. | |
| Our children are not safe. | |
| I am being serious when I say that every single person should be learning to defend themselves. | |
| We are allowing criminals and we are allowing drugs over the border. | |
| And I am not sure, again, why it is that our federal government wants this to happen. | |
| This doesn't make sense. | |
| This is evil. This is actually evil what is taking place. | |
| And of course, it's not because they're concerned about racism or xenophobia. | |
| Something much more nefarious is at foot. | |
| So pay attention, you guys. | |
| And that's all I'm going to say about that. | |

| Okay, now it's time for some topics du jour So I opened my Twitter this morning and everything that was | |
| trending was regarding Taylor Swift Obviously, she is arguably one of the most famous women on the face of the planet. | |
| And something happened to Taylor Swift. | |
| A bunch of AI pictures. | |
| Basically, you can just use artificial intelligence. | |
| And it's gotten so clever that you can make it look like someone is naked when they're not. | |
| So a website called Celeb Jihad published these deep fake images of Taylor Swift. | |
| They're extremely graphic, a series of explicit acts that are themed around the Kansas City | |
| Chiefs. | |
| And obviously, her fans are upset about this, and they should be upset about this. | |
| They're talking about how much of a violation this is. | |
| They're talking about how this should be deemed sexual assault. | |
| And I can only imagine how Taylor Swift feels, waking up and finding out that images that | |
| look exactly like her, but of course are not her, are being spread across the internet. | |
| By the way, this particular site is absolutely abhorrence. | |
| Celeb Jihad was also the website that was responsible for hacking a bunch of celebrities' phones and publishing real pornographic images of celebrities in the past. | |
| I think that was back in 2017. | |
| So they're known to do this. | |
| They understand that there is a desire, a perverted desire amongst some of the population to see celebrities naked and they benefit on that. | |
| Now, I want to be clear that X, Twitter, formerly known as Twitter, has already begun suspending the accounts that has re-shared some of the images, but it's going to keep re-emerging. | |
| Obviously, whether it's going to be on 4chan or somewhere else, you can access these images if you actually want to. | |
| You shouldn't want to, but you can. | |
| And I'm going to tell you why I actually think this happening at Taylor Swift, her having these fake nudes, so to speak, published is a good thing. | |
| I agree it is unbelievably violating. | |
| I agree that this should be categorized as sexual assault. | |
| The problem is that it's trending now, and it wasn't trending when we spoke about this issue last year. | |
| You might recall that I was putting this on your radar, and I was putting it on your radar because there was a young Twitch streamer who goes by QT Cinderella. | |
| She isn't as famous as Taylor Swift. | |
| She isn't as glamorous as Taylor Swift, and she does not have the same If you are able to look at women who are not selling themselves or benefiting off of being seen sexually, they're not benefiting, they're not selling it, they're not platforming it themselves. | |
| If you are able to look at that, You are the problem. | |
| You see women as an object. | |
| You should not be okay doing that. | |
| Every time I hear her, my heart breaks. | |
| My heart breaks listening to her, just a young woman who's done nothing wrong. | |
| You know, she's not selling her body. | |
| And then having some total demented pervert on the internet go, wouldn't it be great to imagine her doing porn and taking her image and putting it out there? | |
| And we covered the story. And unfortunately, that story did not go nearly as viral enough again because she isn't Taylor Swift. | |
| And this is going to be the dawn of the problems that we are going to face in our society, | |
| that people who do not want to sell their bodies are still going to have their images | |
| used, their face used to satisfy, again, perverts on the web. | |
| But now that it's happening to Taylor Swift, the conversation is going to get a lot more | |
| serious. | |
| And here is what I will say about Taylor Swift. | |
| She has been known to fight for something that is not for her benefit, but because it's | |
| simply right. | |
| One of the best things that Taylor Swift did, I don't know if you remember this, she took | |
| a photo with some guy way back when, and he touched her butt while they took the photo. | |
| He just grabbed one of her butt cheeks. | |
| And she sued him. | |
| She went through the entire court process, and she sued him for $1 to make an example | |
| Because no woman who was just simply taking a photo with a fan should have their butt grabbed. | |
| And she was absolutely right, and it was absolutely courageous that she did it. | |
| I want her to do the exact same thing pertaining to this. | |
| She is Taylor Swift. | |
| She has – she's almost worth a billion dollars. | |
| She has unlimited resources available to her. | |
| She's got the best lawyers in the business. | |
| And she cares enough about issues of women getting violated where she can take this to | |
| where it needs to be taken. | |
| Like I said, we never foresaw this happening, obviously, technology being able to do something | |
| And so what she would be doing is pioneering legislation against this, because there does need to be legislation against this. | |
| Women who are not members of the sex industry, women who are not selling their bodies for | |
| profit should not have to suffer this sort of humiliation. | |
| So again, while I am very sorry that this is happening to Taylor Swift, it should not | |
| have to happen to any woman in the entire world, I am glad in a way that it is happening | |
| to her because I do think that she's going to do something about it. | |
| I don't think she's going to take it sitting down and she should do something about it | |
| and she will have my entire support when she does. | |
| Alright guys, moving on to another topic that I wanted to get to. | |
| My friend Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA has come under a lot of fire. | |
| He's been trending for about four days over a remark that he made, which people are calling racist. | |
| Charlie Kirk has a show that is called Thought Crime, and they were talking about DEI policies, you know, the idea that we should just be hiring people on the basis of them being black, on the basis of them being a female. | |
| And particularly he was discussing this as it pertains to pilots in the air. | |
| Take a listen to what Charlie Kirk said and why he's catching some heat. | |
| And that's why I think this United story and the DEI story hits so hard because we've all been in the back of a plane when the turbulence hits or when you're flying through a storm and you're like, I'm so glad I saw the guy with the right stuff and the square jaw get into the cockpit before we took off. | |
| And I feel better now thinking about that. | |
| You want to go thought crime? I'm sorry. | |
| If I see a black pilot, I'm going to be like, boy, I hope he's qualified. | |
| Well, you wouldn't have done that before. | |
| That's not who I am. | |
| That's not what I believe. | |
| It is the reality the left has created. | |
| So you can see why the left loved that clip and why they're now calling Charlie Kirk, | |
| who I worked for and with for years, an avowed racist. | |
| He says that that's going to be his first thought if he sees a black pilot. | |
| And you know what? | |
| I said the exact same thing on this show just a couple of weeks ago. | |
| I remarked that now when I even am watching a commercial, if I see a commercial and I | |
| see a black person, a Hispanic person, an Asian person, my thought process is, did they | |
| just get this because D.E.I.? | |
| I no longer think the person is qualified. | |
| Way back when, just a few short years ago, when I used to watch movies and I used to see a black character, I always just thought it's because he's a great actor. | |
| Denzel Washington, one of the greatest actors of our time. | |
| He's amazing, obviously. | |
| But now my experience has changed because I recognize that we no longer live in a meritocracy. | |
| And I'm thinking, they hired that person because they had to fulfill the quota. | |
| Oh, we must have at least X amount of black people. | |
| And I don't think that they deserve to be in those spaces anymore. | |
| And it makes me upset that that's my thought process when I see a commercial and when I see a movie. | |
| Is this person actually even a good actor or are they just checking a box? | |
| But unfortunately, that is the reality of what happens when it comes to DEI. | |
| And what he is remarking on is true. I would be terrified if I got onto a plane and I saw a woman | |
| flying the plane. And I know that we have the United CEO saying that he just wants to fulfill | |
| a quota. He just wants there to be more women and wants there to be more black people. And he's not | |
| concerned at first with qualifications. That is something that should alarm all of us, guys, honestly. | |
| This is what Charlie Kirk had to say in his defense on Twitter. He said, | |
| I made a logical statement. In 2023, 19 percent of United's pilot corps was minority or female, | |
| which was already the highest among any airline. United CEO Steve Kirby, that's the one that we | |
| showed you that was dancing in trans gear or cross-dressing, whatever you want to call it, | |
| bragged that the airline would mandate that their next pilot class would be 50 percent female and | |
| minority. A few questions. One, are there enough candidates to fill the 50 percent quota? Two, | |
| why are 81 percent of United's pilots white men currently? | |
| Is it because they happen to be the best pilots? Should we just assume it's because woke United | |
| is secretly super racist or is it possible that white men simply tend to be more interested | |
| in flying than other groups? Three, if white men land the planes safely, what is the problem? | |
| Four, if hiring is based on merit. | |
| A few questions. | |
| He goes on in the tweet, but essentially what he is doing is he is doubling down and he should. | |
| These are important questions to ask. | |
| I agree with my colleague Matt Walsh that in the future there is going to be a horrific accident on a plane and it is going to be because this is what is happening on the corporate level. | |
| They no longer are concerned with safety. | |
| They just want to make sure that it looks black enough, that it looks like there are enough females, that it looks woke enough, and that should terrify all of us. | |
| Alright guys, moving on. | |
| Obviously yesterday we covered the non-scandal that is happening in Barbie world where a bunch of women that are way too emotionally attached to their childhoods, because that's what it is, it was a trip down memory lane, it was nostalgia, it was get dressed up in pink and go with your girlfriends as your favorite Barbie to see the movie. | |
| We're freaking out to really having an emotional breakdown because Margot Robbie was not nominated as the Best Actress. | |
| So she's not up for the nomination as it pertains to the Oscars. | |
| And obviously my take was, guys, it's a Barbie movie. | |
| I'm going to immediately assume that it didn't take the best acting chops to play Barbie and that the other women that got the nominations ahead of her probably delivered more layered and complex performances. | |
| But I could not have imagined after I shot the show yesterday that Hillary Clinton would weigh in on the issue. | |
| She did. Hillary Clinton wrote this tweet on Twitter. | |
| I just want you guys to feel very emotional as I read it to you because that's how she intended it, to inspire and for you to feel emotional. | |
| She wrote, Greta and Margot, while it can sting to win the box office but not take home the gold, your millions of fans love you. | |
| You're both so much more than Knuff. | |
| Hashtag Hillary Barbie. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| I'm cringing. | |
| Stop! Hillary, go away! | |
| Why? Why does everything have to relate to her election loss? | |
| That's what she's saying. I won the popular vote, but not the electoral vote. | |
| And that's what happened to you guys, too. | |
| Everybody loved the Barbie movie. | |
| It can sting. | |
| I get it. I want you to know that you are enough. | |
| Honestly, I would have assumed that after this many years, it's been like almost eight years since she lost, that Hillary Clinton would have gone through enough therapy. | |
| She had seen enough shrinks that she wouldn't possibly have contrived this awful tweet. | |
| This awful tweet that really, for me... | |
| Just further asserted the fact that women are just not emotionally equipped to be in the same occupational positions as men. | |
| The idea that any male politician, a person that aspired to be the leader of the free world, would draft that tweet is an absolute nonsense. | |
| It should never happen. Politicians should not be weighing in on a Barbie movie. | |
| Politicians should not feel emotional about a Barbie movie whatsoever. | |
| And so I am glad once again that Hillary Clinton was never the president of the United States | |
| And I feel very sad for people who are looking at that tweet and thinking yeah, that's amazing | |
| Women are really suffering in America because of a Barbie movie not receiving an Oscar | |
| Genuinely people we just we have to grow up. I'm I'm of the opinion | |
| That the human species is just going to become extinct because we just we just cannot be serious people right now | |
| that this is even a conflicting | |
| And yet, it is. | |

| Alright guys, now it's time for me to read some of your comments regarding episodes past. | |
| First up, regarding Kim Kardashian going back to Balenciaga. | |
| Marie writes, the most alarming thing about Kim and Balenciaga is that she is a whole mother. | |
| Yeah, you would think that that would transform things for you. | |
| I mean, I already just reserved the most hatred for people in our society that engage in pedophilia, | |
| child pornography, anything of that descriptor. | |
| But becoming a mother, you would think, would unleash a dragon in somebody. | |
| And listen, I get it. | |
| She's friends with these individuals, and she wants to forgive her friends. | |
| That's fine. | |
| But some things are more important, you know, stances that you have to take publicly. | |
| And you would think that this would register as one of those things that is just too important | |
| and too critical, a strong stance. | |
| She took no stance, and she was always going to be their brand ambassador. | |
| That was apparent from the very beginning. | |
| Miss Moonby writes, a spade is indeed a spade. | |
| This is not jealousy over Kim Kardashian's wealth or fame. | |
| I am 100% certain that there is no amount of wealth or fame desirable or valuable enough | |
| for me to do what she has done in order to obtain them. | |
| And that's exactly how I think most people feel. | |
| Look, I think you could argue that Kim Kardashian is the most successful | |
| prostitute that has ever existed on the face of the planet and | |
| That is what she wanted for her life. And that is what she got in her life | |
| I personally think that she is going to end up like Madonna. | |
| I don't think any man will marry her now Outside of young men that eventually are going to see her | |
| fortune and they're going to be willing to be her boy toy But no, this is she's not the kind of person that people | |
| want to take home to mom Jay White writes can't think of a better reason to cancel | |
| someone than the fact that they promote or align with child pornography | |
| Correct. And I would argue that it's not a cancellation. | |
| It is just we will not accept this. | |
| This is our line. | |
| This is our bottom line. And we absolutely are not going to give you one inch in this category. | |
| Moving on regarding the Barbie scandal. | |
| Paratrooper writes, the fact that the movie was about the evil patriarchy and Gosling was nominated and not Margot is just gold. | |
| Yeah, it is. Actually, a lot of people in the comments, you guys were also saying that he was just actually better. | |
| I don't know because I haven't seen the movie. | |
| I, you know, hung it up after Tyra Banks was Eve. | |
| Eve's great. No matter where she goes, I just don't see how any Barbie movie could possibly top that and I refuse to Yeah. | |
| Yeah. She hasn't said anything. | |
| I still like Margot Robbie. | |
| Next, Rika writes, Margot was an amazing actress, but I agree with this take. | |
| Barbie was a fun movie, but not Oscar-worthy. | |
| Glad the Academy Awards still has some standards. | |
| Yep, I hope they still have some standards. | |
| But we know in the past, actually, didn't they go through the Oscars so white thing because... | |
| Similarly, during BLM, they were like, there just needs to be black people, even if they don't deserve the actual Oscar. | |
| So I think the woke is starting to seep in, and I am sure that they will now consider this in the future due to all of the backlash that they are facing right now. | |
| Unwarranted backlash. Haribo writes, Not gonna lie, I was completely surprised when I found out that Barbie was up for any Oscars. | |
| Yeah, honestly, I don't know because I'm not a big movie buff, but the fact that it's up for any Oscars probably means that we aren't creating really great movies anymore. | |
| But I'm one of those people that believes that everything has been downhill since the Lord of the Rings trilogy. | |
| That's my take and I'm sticking to it. | |
| Dr. Dassler writes, lastly, maybe stop rewarding everyone for the wrong reasons. | |
| Then they won't expect it and demand it every time. | |
| Oh, imagine that. | |
| A world in which we operated according to a meritocracy and not a wine babyocracy, which is what we're living in right now. | |
| Ladies and gentlemen, unfortunately, that is all the time that we have for today. |
