It sheds a lot of light on what a Harris administration would look like if you don't have time for a full rundown of Walz's career and beliefs.
The main thing to know is that as governor of Minnesota, he mandated that elementary schools put tampons in the boys' bathroom.
I'm Michael Knowles.
This is the Michael Knowles Show.
Welcome back to the show.
The Algerian Olympic delegation has placed the blame for the Imani Caliph trans-slash-intersex-slash-we're-not-quite-sure-what-it-is boxing controversy at the feet of one group in particular.
We will get to that in one moment.
But spoiler alert, it's the Jews.
We'll get to their accusations in a moment.
First, though, the Yes or No game has been wildly popular in the Daily Wire shop.
We recently released the Conspiracy Expansion Pack last year.
Is that recent?
I don't know if that counts as recent.
We sold out immediately.
Well, I am overjoyed.
to share some news with you.
Pull out your credit cards, baby.
We got a new pack.
That's right.
This is the Politics, Philosophy, and Religion Yes or No Expansion Pack.
It is super cool.
It's my favorite pack yet.
Mr. Davies, are you on the line?
I'm with you.
I want to show the people the game.
Here, ready?
I'm just going to pull out one or two cards, okay?
Just to give you a little sampling of some of the questions that pop up to help you figure out how well you know your friends and your family.
The Greek gods were Nephilim.
Now, this is going to be disappointing, but I think you are going to say no for this.
Yes, I will say no.
Some of them are at least demons, but some of the philosophical pagans and everything are... I think it's actually a kind of virtuous paganism that leads one to at least the natural conclusion of the existence of one God.
Okay, there's... Do we have time for one more?
Can I do another one?
Yeah.
Okay.
Women can be pastors.
I'll answer this for you.
You are very evangelical, and this is what makes it very confusing, because the evangelicals, on the one hand, are super right-wing, or at least they were before BLM.
I know it got a little rocky there for a while.
So they're generally pretty right-wing, but also they're not super into church tradition and magisterium.
But I still, I'm going to lean on the right-wing side rather than the more individualist side.
I'm going to say you say no.
Correct.
That's like gay marriage.
It isn't even a thing, you know?
It ain't even a thing.
All right.
But you know what is a thing though?
The yes or no game.
Play with up to nine people at once.
Put your knowledge of your friends and family to the test.
Go to dailywire.com slash shop.
Get yes or no the game.
Pick up the new Politics, Philosophy, and Religion expansion pack.
The libs know that tampon Tim is a big vulnerability.
He's got a real colorful career.
We will give you all of the highlights, arm you for all of your water cooler discussions with your friends who only read the establishment media and think that this guy is in any way normal.
But the libs know that Tim Walz as governor putting tampons in the public school boys bathroom for kids as young as nine years old, we're talking about fourth grade students, is really odd.
Okay, they know that.
So the New York Times posts, they have a whole article out and they post, the Trump campaign attacked Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota on Tuesday for signing a bill last year that provides access to menstrual products and bathrooms for all schools for grades 4 to 12 as a way to accommodate transgender teens.
Huh, that's kind of a word salad.
What a bunch of gobbledygook.
Can anyone translate that for me?
I'll translate it for you.
He put tampons in the boy's bathroom for nine-year-olds.
Very strange behavior.
And Tim Walz's dalliances with weird sex stuff do not end there.
Tim Walz's dalliances with weird sex stuff, as it pertains to kids, does not end there.
The tampon law is real.
It was a law that went into effect this year.
It's actually a relatively recent law.
It affects grades 4 through 12.
He also signed a law last year making Minnesota a sanctuary state and a refuge for trans kids.
So, Tim Walz signed a law just last year That said, hey, if you're having trouble castrating yourself or going on cross-sex hormones or doing weird sex stuff and you're a little kid and maybe your parents don't like it, come to Minnesota.
Come here, little kids.
Come to the white van of the Midwest.
Yes, we have gummies and candies and puppies and cross-sex hormones here.
Just come on over here, kids.
Very odd, very strange behavior, because the nuts and bolts of being a sanctuary state and a refuge for trans kids means giving kids, contrary to the law, contrary perhaps even to their families, puberty blockers, reconstructive genital surgery, and hormone therapy.
Tim Walz, before he was a governor, before he was a congressman, he was a teacher, he was a high school teacher.
He founded the first gay straight alliance.
At Mankato West High School, way back in 1999.
So all the way back in 1999, this guy was a pioneer when it comes to talking about weird sex stuff, desires, and behaviors with 14-year-olds.
A little strange, isn't it?
What's ironic is...
I haven't even used the word weird because of this irony.
The Libs have attacked J.D.
Vance for being weird because he... I don't even know exactly why they call it because he says that people should get married and have kids.
Pretty much that was the main attack.
They said, you don't think you think people should get married and have kids?
You're a weirdo.
You don't think we should murder all the babies?
You're a weirdo.
You don't think a man can become a woman?
You're a weirdo.
And it was actually Tim Walz who lobbed that attack.
He's the one who popularized that line of attack.
Tim Walz Tampon Tim, he's the guy who did that.
Really odd.
Then, it gets even stranger.
Tim Walz makes his first big appearance with Kamala Harris at a rally, now that he's the running mate.
And he decides to make a weird sex joke about J.D.
Vance.
That is if he's willing to get off the couch and show up.
See what I did there?
Okay, so just that little snippet, you probably have no idea what that means, out of context, or even in context.
He says, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna go see J.D.
Vance, you know, out there on the trail in the debates, if he's willing to get off the couch and show up.
You see what I did there?
And I watched that clip and I thought, I don't see what you did there.
What, are you calling him fat?
Are you calling him lazy?
What is this joke here?
And so then I looked it up.
And I found that apparently, according to all these left-wing sources, not even just weird, fringy ones, but now, you know, the vice presidential nominee, According to the left-wing sources, J.D.
Vance wrote in his best-selling book, Hillbilly Elegy, that he, like, did weird sex stuff with a couch or something.
And so I see all this stuff written in all these left-wing places.
I hear Tim Waltz talking about it.
I thought, wait a second, I read Hillbilly Elegy.
First of all, it doesn't really sound like J.D.
Vance.
And I actually read the book.
Unlike the libs, you know, I read books every now and again.
And I don't remember that chapter in there.
And I looked it up and I realized, oh, it's just totally fake.
Some random left-wing social media account posted and said J.D.
Vance wrote in his best-selling memoir about how he did some weird sex thing with a couch, and then it went totally viral.
But it was just completely made up.
Like he wasn't even riffing on some unusual or ambiguous scene in the book.
It's just, he just completely made it up out of thin air.
And then all these left-wing accounts, you know, all these people who certainly haven't read that book or probably very many books at all, they start posting it all around.
And now Tim Walz is joking about it on the campaign trail.
And I thought, well, am I being a fuddy-duddy here?
I mean, it's just a joke.
Then I thought, no, it's not even a joke because there's no, It's just a lie.
There's no setup to it.
There's no connection to it.
There's no even kind of incongruity that we can laugh at.
It's just absurd.
It's just an absurd statement and a lie.
But the joke is not even that it's absurd.
That would still make it a joke.
The joke is that JD Vance did this.
I don't know.
You take all of these things together.
Tim Walz, and we'll get to Tim Walz's record on crime and all sorts of other political issues that seem maybe more relevant to people's day-to-day lives, but I just think Tim Walz is a man With a consistent record of obsession over weird sex stuff.
Going back to 1999, this is one of the first guys in the country, certainly the first guy in his high school, to say, hey, boss, hey, Mr. Principal, I want to found a club where I can talk to 14-year-olds about specifically weird sex stuff, like aberrant, disordered sex stuff.
Can I do that?
And then he says, hey, hey guys, now that I'm the governor, I'm going to make sure we put tampons in nine-year-old boys' bathrooms.
That's going to be a top priority for me.
And also, we're going to make Minnesota a magnet for kids who have weird sexual desires and who maybe their parents, they don't agree with those sexual desires or they're not encouraging them.
I want them to come here, come here to me.
And then I'm going to make up some weird sex thing about JD Vance.
I don't know.
And I really don't throw this around lightly.
I know the right sometimes throws around accusations of sexual perversion, like the left throws around accusations of racism.
Sometimes it's gratuitous and it's uncalled for.
But here we have a 25-year consistent record of sexual perversion from Tim Waltz.
And it's notable.
It's actually beyond just our generally licentious, pornographic culture where, you know, there's a lot of weird sex stuff everywhere.
Like, this guy in particular seems to be afflicted by this.
But J.D.
Vance had a good comeback.
There's so much more to say.

Vance, President Trump's running mate, clapped back at Tim Walz and Kamala Harris's choice to choose him as her running mate.
This is a guy who's proposed shipping more manufacturing jobs to China, who wants to make the American people more reliant on garbage energy instead of good American energy, and has proposed defunding the police just as Kamala Harris does.
I think it's interesting, actually, they make an interesting tag team because, of course, Tim Walz allowed rioters to burn down Minneapolis in the summer of 2020, and then the few who got caught, Kamala Harris helped bail them out of jail.
It is more instructive for what it says about Kamala Harris that she doesn't care about the border, she doesn't care about crime, she doesn't care about American energy, and most importantly, she doesn't care about the Americans who have been made to suffer under those policies.
That is a great line of attack.
Yeah, well, Tim Walz let the rioters run free to burn down the main city in his state, and then the few that did get caught, Kamala Harris bailed them out.
Which is true.
Kamala Harris raised money specifically to bail out the rioters in Tim Walz's state.
The handful who were actually arrested.
That paints a picture.
You know, I posted yesterday on social media one of the famous images from the BLM riots of Minneapolis.
Flames, a building totally on fire, and one of the rioters there with his hands in the air.
Looks like a scene out of hell.
And then just above that, right where he would be holding something up, it's the Harris-Waltz sign.
That's it.
That really paints a picture for you.
J.D.' 's words paint a picture for you of what America looks like under Harris-Waltz.
It looks like Minneapolis burning over race riots.
Walt, in particular, is really, really bad on crime.
Walt, not so long ago, just three years ago, was asked, after his complete failure during George Floyd, after he allowed the main city and the state to be burnt down, he was asked about Law and order about police issues.
And here's how he describes the police.
I think a lot of Minnesotans, Lawrence, and the country, this sense of dread that you've been feeling, this sense of, we can't have occupying, you know, large numbers of police on our streets all the time.
That's the feeling that black parents have when they send their kids to soccer practice.
And I think maybe it's starting to, starting to dawn on some folks that unless this gets taken up now, We're going to be right back here again.
This guy's state gets burnt down by Black Lives Matter rioters.
And his first reaction is, we don't want to have too many cops out there.
Oh, no.
You know, the real problem, the real problem is not the BLM left wing rioters murdering and burning things and looting.
And no, no, no.
The real problem is There might have been a few too many cops.
They're an occupying force.
What does that mean?
An occupying force.
An occupying force is a hostile and illegitimate police power.
So what he's saying here is that the police, prosecutors, the whole system of law and order is illegitimate.
Conservatives have run for many decades now on how soft the Democrats are on crime.
You know, George H.W.
Bush running about on Willie Horton, you know, Mike Dukakis, the Democrat candidate.
When he was governor, he let this one criminal out of prison briefly and he went on to commit another crime.
What Tim Walz is talking about here is a whole other level.
He's saying the police are illegitimate.
The law, American law, the American government, You don't need to make many leaps of logic here.
You just follow Tim Walz's premises to their logical conclusions.
He's saying it's all illegitimate.
And so he gives preference, preferential treatment, to the rioters over the police.
This really undermines something that Kamala has been Pushing, which is, the Kamala campaign wants to make it seem as though she is Kamala the cop.
She's going to get tough on crime.
This is the cop versus the criminal.
Donald Trump is a criminal because my administration prosecuted our political rival because we thought that he would beat us at the ballot box.
So he's a criminal.
This is the kind of stuff that, you know, Nicolas Maduro, the Venezuelan dictator, is getting up to.
This is what every tin pot dictator gets up to.
But I'm the cop and he's the criminal.
Well, Tim Walz says that all the cops are illegitimate.
Tim Walz's daughter, during the BLM riots, coordinated with the rioters to let them know when the National Guard would be deployed and when they would be more likely to be arrested.
I never like to bring in the candidates' families, so I'm not saying anything else about the daughter who's now 23 years old.
I'm just pointing this out.
This is a major political issue.
On May 20th, 2020, as Minneapolis was burning, Tim Walz's daughter reposted and responded to an ex-account urging protesters to get out now because the National Guard and SWAT were allegedly on their way.
So some random ex-account says, hey guys, if you're burning down Minneapolis right now, get out because the National Guard are coming, you might get arrested.
She responds and says, no, the National Guard will not be present tonight.
This is the daughter of the governor.
Wonder where she found out the National Guard would not be present tonight.
Quote, there's a lot of misinformation that is further spreading fear and chaos at the scene of the protests.
The Guard cannot be sent in within minutes.
It takes time for them to deploy because they come from all over the state.
To be clear, The National Guard will not be present tonight just because someone asked for something doesn't mean it's happening right away or even happening at all.
I don't know about SWAT, but what I do know is the Guard will not be present arresting people tonight.
So this is a radical family, this is a radical man, and you might say, well, fathers and daughters, right?
Maybe, you know, she just went rogue and she disagreed with her father.
No, her father was the one who was on the side of the BLM rioters.
Her father was the one calling the cops an occupying force.
Her father was the one, presumably, who passed along the information that the National Guard would not be present tonight.
And it's not even as though he had some different view of the riots than the daughter did.
He was the one cheering the BLMers on.
And then, cherry on top of the sundae, Tim Walz comes out and admits But we can get out there, reach out, make the case.
And for one thing, don't ever shy away from our progressive values.
One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.
One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.
You know like good old neighbor Joe Stalin?
You know?
Good old neighbor Mao.
Ah yes, won't you be my neighbor?
Get back in the rice fields!
Get back in the rice fields or I'll show you what it means to be a neighbor!
It's a wonderful day in the Gulag.
A wonderful day.
One person's socialist is another man's neighbor.
Okay, so he's embracing that label.
Says, I'm a socialist.
He's not the only one.
There have been others in recent years.
It's really all got kicked off in modern political history with Bernie Sanders, who in the mid-2000s said, no, look, listen here, I'm a socialist.
AOC recently has embraced that label.
A handful of others.
The one member of the squad went down last night.
We'll get to that momentarily too.
So what you got here is a guy who is to the left of Bernie Sanders running as the running mate of a woman who when she was in the Senate was also rated to the left of Bernie Sanders.
You have the farthest left, furthest left I should say, presidential ticket in American history.
Mocking the cops, not only mocking the cops, calling them an occupying force, discrediting the entire American system of law and justice, and now embracing the label socialist.
There's so much more to say.
First, though, go to preborn.com slash Knowles.

Pre-sale tickets are available August 15th.
Mark your calendars.
That date is very important.
Watch the trailer now at Amiracist.com So Waltz is a socialist.
But Michael, that doesn't mean that Kamala herself, who cares about the VP?
You're right.
Probably most of the time I'll spend talking about the VP will occur today because then we'll move on until we get to the VP debate.
But then we'll move on.
We'll focus on the top of the ticket again.
But don't think that Tim Waltz is appreciably different from Kamala Harris.
Kamala Harris has articulated the same kind of socialist principles.
It has to be about a goal of saying everybody should end up in the same place.
And since we didn't start in the same place, some folks might need more.
Equitable distribution.
Giving resources based on equity.
Understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity.
Understanding not everyone starts out at the same place.
So there's a big difference between equality and equity.
Equality suggests often everybody should get the same thing.
Well, that often assumes everybody started out in the same place.
As opposed to equity, which is everyone should end up in the same place.
Equity, everyone should end up in the same place.
This is, and I don't use the word lightly, you know, I think that attacks on communism, Marxism are somewhat overdone.
I think a lot of our problems really arise more from plain old liberalism than from communism or, you know, the Reds at the gates just about to destroy our country.
However, this is communism.
This is Harrison Bergeron, okay?
Great little short story by Kurt Vonnegut.
This is Kamala saying we need to handicap certain people because they're going to make it too far ahead.
We need to make sure that people don't merely have Equality of opportunity, as some liberals and libertarians want us to have.
It's not that people need to have good and appropriate social conditions that can be conducive to their flourishing and the growth in virtue, as some conservatives would like us to have.
No, no, no.
They all need to end up at exactly the same place.
And if that means we gotta take from that guy over there, we're gonna take everything he's worth and we're gonna give it to this other person.
And if that means we need to create new racial caste systems, we're gonna create those racial caste systems.
And if that means that we need to pick winners and losers, we're gonna pick winners and losers.
And I'm gonna do it.
Me, Queen Kamala.
What does that look like in practice?
I think a lot of people are thinking, oh, you know, this is just classic Kamala, you know, we're going to imagine what can be unburdened by what has been.
Kamala doesn't exactly understand the relation between words and their meaning.
Kamala, when she speaks, she seems to just be making noise.
The words, supposedly, that come out of her mouth don't even seem to rise to the level of speech because they don't seem to carry any meaning with them, right?
All this, wow, we love school buses, don't we?
We're going to be unburdened by what has been, la la.
You know, kind of new agey wine mom claptrap.
But these words really do carry meaning.
She's being pretty specific here.
And we can see what this philosophy, what this ideology looks like in practice because her running mate, Tim Walz, implemented it as governor of Minnesota.
Charlie Kirk had a great bit on this last night.
Charlie posted, said, During COVID, Tim Walz rationed access to monoclonal antibody treatments based on skin color.
Being non-white gave a person more priority than having hypertension.
And was equal in importance to having massive risk factors like diabetes or cardiovascular disease.
So, the actual risk factors for COVID.
Tim Waltz said, forget about that stuff.
Sure, we have a limited number of these treatments, the monoclonal antibodies that seem to work pretty well, so we have to ration it in some way.
You could ration it by who's got the money.
That seems kind of nasty.
I don't think we would support that in America.
You could ration it by geography.
You don't really want to do that.
You could ration it by people who are most in need of them.
You know, actually, especially during a pandemic, that's probably a nice idea.
Or, no, you could just say, white people, back of the line, too bad if you die.
Black people, even if you're not really at risk, you're going to come to the front of the line.
Because white people are evil and black people are good, and there's no individual variance anywhere in there.
That's what the leftists say.
That's what equity looks like in practice.
You think that's going to play in the suburbs?
I don't think so.
I was on Piers Morgan's show yesterday, and I was on with a number of great panelists, one of whom was Cenk Uygur from the Young Turks.
And he was thrilled about the choice of Tim Walz, because Tim Walz is a tried-and-true dyed-in-the-wool leftist.
And Cenk is a big leftist, and so he said, this is great.
He thinks the leftism is going to win.
He thinks this is going to play in Peoria.
I was also happy.
I said, I'm so glad that I can agree with Cenk.
Cenk and I are totally on the same page.
I'm also thrilled that Kamala picked this guy.
For all the same reasons, because he's a dyed-in-the-wool leftist, and I don't think that plays in Peoria.
You really think rationing medical care so that white people don't get it and only black people get it, you think that plays even among black people?
Maybe among some black people.
I think some reasonable black people will say, uh, no.
Look, it'll play among some white people who just are masochistic and who hate themselves and I don't know, who have this, who buy into the left-wing racial hierarchy, but I think most people generally just Just won't like that.
I think most people generally won't like all the weird sex stuff pertaining to kids that Tim Walz has involved himself in for now 25 years.
I think most people won't like the idea that this man watched his state burn and took the opportunity to defend the rioters and attack the cops.
Yeah, that's my guess.
We'll see.
I guess we'll see in November.
How should we respond?
J.D.
Vance is responding by focusing on something that many people in this political cycle forget even exists.
When I talk to Americans, one of the biggest concerns I hear is why are housing costs so high?
I'll give you two reasons, Sean.
Number one, there are 20 million illegal aliens here who shouldn't be here who are competing with Americans for scarce homes.
Number two, Kamala Harris has supported higher interest rates, which makes mortgages totally unaffordable for normal people.
So these policies make ordinary Americans suffer.
Of course, we haven't even talked about the fentanyl crisis.
On issue after issue, she's putting the interests of illegal aliens above American citizens.
We've got to stop Kamala Harris, Sean, and the only way to do that is to support Donald Trump at the ballot box.
I love this.
The more you hear from Kamala Harris, the lower your opinion of her.
The more you hear from Tim Walz, I promise, just wait until his old clips really start to make the rounds, just wait until the VP debate.
The more you hear from him, the lower your opinion of him.
The more you hear from J.D.
Vance, The more your opinion of him increases.
This is a smart guy.
He's got both feet on the ground.
He's not just some bowtie-wearing ideologue.
He actually has a little bit of experience in communities in America that have been forgotten and have been left behind.
He is extremely well educated.
He came from bad circumstances, so he's kind of seen it all.
He can articulate a conservative policy vision beyond all of the, you know, personal invective and attacks that go on on the campaign trail.
He can speak to voters and say, hey, this was better under Trump.
This was better under Trump.
This was better under Trump.
Here's how things have collapsed under Biden.
Here's another way your life is worse under Biden.
Here's specifically what we can do.
To improve your life.
I really like this.
He can connect issues.
He can connect the immigration crisis to the housing crisis.
Because these are not discrete issues.
We sometimes talk about political issues as though they're totally compartmentalized.
Well, you have the financial issues, and you have the social issues, and you have the immigration, and the foreign policy, and the economic... No, they're all kind of... They're all intertwined because we live in one political society.
And it's integrated into the whole.
When you let 11 to 15 million people cross your border illegally, that's going to create problems in the job market.
Tim Walz wants to make himself into a working man's hero.
Well, how about we close up that border?
Your ticket opened up the border.
The head of your ticket was the border czar.
She let all these illegal aliens come in to suppress wages at the lower end of the labor market for a lot of those voters that you're supposedly talking about.
You want to talk about housing prices?
Your ticket let in all of these illegal aliens raising the cost of housing for everyone!
JD can connect those things.
It's really good stuff.
The only issues that the libs are going to campaign on in this cycle, that Kamala and Waltz are going to campaign on, are going to be issues that appeal to disordered appetites.
They can't campaign on the economy.
The economy's not good.
They can't campaign on, obviously, immigration.
It's not good.
They can't campaign on foreign affairs.
We're waiting any moment.
While I'm broadcasting this show, you could have a major war kickoff in the Middle East to say nothing of the war in Ukraine, to say nothing of China eyeing Taiwan, to say nothing of just the breakdown of the political order, the world order under Biden and Harris, They can't campaign on any of those things.
So the only thing they can campaign on is disordered personal choices, as Tim Walz is already doing.
Some of us, some of us in here are old enough to remember.
I see you down there.
I see those old white guys.
Some of us are old enough to remember.
When it was Republicans who were talking about freedom.
It turns out now, what they meant was the government should be free to invade your doctor's office.
In Minnesota, we respect our neighbors and their personal choices that they make.
Even if we wouldn't make the same choice for ourselves, there's a golden rule.
"Mind your own damn business!" These guys are after my heart chanting, "Mind your own damn business!" That feels good, so thank you.
Wow, it's an amazing rewriting of the golden rule given to us directly by our Lord.
If you're Christian, you're familiar with this, which is love your neighbor as yourself.
This is a satanic inversion of that.
Mind your own damn business.
What about loving your neighbor?
I thought that was the golden rule.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
Now the golden rule is just be a hyper-individualist and only care about yourself.
That's kind of weird.
But of course he's saying, look, we're the party of freedom.
We're the party of small government.
Because why?
Those Republicans, they want to go into your doctor's office and stop you from murdering your baby.
Those Republicans, they want to stop you from making the personal choice to castrate your son, your little kid, you weirdos.
No, come on, it's just personal choices.
And it's a reminder.
This is an important point.
It's a reminder.
They really do believe this.
They really do think of themselves as the party of freedom and the party of small government.
In a way, they are.
When it comes to letting people murder their kids, they are the party of small government.
When it comes to letting parents castrate their children and put them on puberty blockers and put them down a terrible path, they are the party of small government.
Well, you're right.
Conservatives want bigger government.
We want to stop teachers and predators and perverts and even misguided parents from transing their kids.
We want to stop people from murdering babies.
We do.
So we want more government because there's really no Such thing as small government or big government.
Even back when America had a non-existent federal government, there was still a very heavy hand of local government to enforce all sorts of laws, many of which we don't even enforce today.
Laws about blasphemy, blue laws, laws pertaining to regulating how farms work and how labor works in the community.
So, and then of course now, you know, we have less regulation in some ways, but we have much more regulation in other ways.
Now that we have an imperial government in Washington, there's no such thing as small government or big government.
The debate is not between small government versus big government.
There's only good government and bad government.
Is government doing the things it ought to do?
Is it protecting vulnerable people, like innocent little babies, like little kids who are being experimented on by predatory scientists and political activists?
Is it doing good things?
Is it protecting people?
Is it advancing the common good?
Is it creating conditions for flourishing?
Or is it bad government?
And Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, even more than they represent big government, they represent really bad government.
And Donald Trump and J.D.
Vance represent good government.
And in this election, I would humbly encourage people to vote for good government over bad government.

My favorite comment is from TheRealBurtMoog, who says, just typed in Google, assassination attempt on...
And Trump doesn't make the top 10.
Even when I type in Troom, it still auto-completes to Truman.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
This is after Google admitted to the House Judiciary Committee that the search results were rigged against Trump in this way, and they said, oh, oopsie-daisy, it was a big mistake.
Don't worry, we fixed it.
Doesn't look like you fixed it.
It doesn't really look like an oopsie-daisy to me.
Speaking of bad government, What does the socialist dictator of Venezuela have in common with the ambiguously gendered Algerian boxer at the Olympics?
Sounds like a setup to a joke.
Perhaps it is.
Apparently, according to the Venezuelans and the Algerians respectively, they're both the victims of international Zionists.
According to the The New York Sun and Ynet News.
Yeah, Ynet News.
Venezuela's Maduro blames international Zionism for widespread unrest following fraudulent election.
So you know there was this election.
A week ago in Venezuela, and it would seem that the people voted against the socialist dictator Maduro, who's destroyed the country, and the opposition party.
It's not even conservative or right-wing opposition, it's just more of a centrist opposition.
They say, we've got the vote tallies, this is incontrovertible, this is irreversible, we won the election.
But Maduro's declared himself the winner.
And so Venezuela's saying, no, no, no, we won.
Maduro is saying, we won and the Zionists are trying to steal this from us.
And I thought, okay, well, I guess it's possible that the Zionists are stealing it from Maduro.
I mean, because Maduro is a socialist, so the Zionists are capitalists.
No, I'm also told the Zionists are socialists and communists.
But in any case, maybe they want to go in and do more capitalism there.
So that's why they rigged the counting or something?
So, is the argument that the Venezuelan people did not vote against Maduro?
It seems to me kind of likely that they did vote against Maduro because of how Maduro destroyed the country and how they're starving and they're fleeing to America.
You know, those numbers don't really lie.
So, what was it?
Did the Zionists go in and brainwash the people to vote against Maduro?
No, Maduro's arguing that he actually did win the election, so I don't know.
Okay, that one, we're going to put a little question mark there for the international Zionists and turn then to the Algerian Olympic delegation, which is blaming the controversy regarding Imane Califf, the boxer who some are saying is really a man and has the chromosomes of a man, but the boxer insists on his or her Sort of Schrodinger's boxer.
His or her own womanhood.
And the Olympic Committee doesn't really test for this anyway, so it's kind of unclear.
But just watching this person pummel these women in the face is pretty distasteful to a lot of people.
So anyway, the Algerian Olympic delegation is blaming the whole controversy also on the Zionists.
And this one was a little harder for me to understand.
It's the Zionists.
Forget about capitalism and socialism.
The Zionists seem to have a desire to stop the Algerian team from winning a medal.
But the Algerian boxer is doing well, So the Zionists made the Algerian boxer look really big and manly and made the Algerian boxer fail a separate boxing league test of womanhood.
And I guess made the Algerian boxer punch all those women in the face.
I don't.
It sort of makes me take criticisms of Zionism a little less seriously.
Okay.
I.
I say this as someone who I don't believe in the religious or historical arguments for Zionism.
You know, I think my argument for the state of Israel is much more of a prudential kind of practical argument than that.
And so I'm not saying I'm not open to any criticisms of Zionism.
I certainly am.
But when you get this stuff, like, you know, The trans boxing controversy is because of the Zionists!
Yeah, that socialist dictator of Venezuela is unpopular.
Because of the Zionists!
I don't know, it makes me start to question.
So, I didn't turn in my homework yesterday because of the Zionists!
You know, those Zionists.
Those guys.
It's kind of like my rule with the protests.
With the campus protests and the protest that was in D.C.
the other day over Israel-Gaza.
I just can't help but notice, not having a great deal of expertise on the region and this conflict and the long-standing religious fights that have gone on for millennia, but if I were just looking, I'd say, okay, at the pro-Palestine protests, they burn the American flag.
And at the pro-Israel protests, they don't.
And at the pro-Palestine protests, you get people like AOC.
And at the pro-Israel protests, you don't.
So I just think, I don't know, as a rule of thumb, when the controversial Olympics boxer, whom some are calling a man, and the socialist dictator of Venezuela, and, you know, AOC, and your blue-haired lesbian doormaid from Columbia University are all on one side of a political issue, I'm probably on the other side of it.
It's just, that's kind of my rule of thumb.
Now, one thing the Zionists did do is they did kick Cori Bush out of Congress.
Speaking of the squad, Cori Bush was, she's kind of a junior member of the squad.
She's not, if AOC is Paul McCartney and Ilhan Omar is John Lennon and, I don't know, Rashida Tlaib is George Harrison maybe.
Ayanna Pressley is kind of Ringo.
I don't know.
I would say Cori Bush is the Neil Aspinall of the squad.
Okay, really a real junior member, but still out there.
And she lost her primary last night.
And this is after AIPAC dumped a ton of money.
This is the American-Israel lobby.
Dumped a ton of money to kick her out.
They did the same thing to Jamal Bowman, another crazy left-wing member who once called me a Nazi and said I only wanted white people, white men to be alive in America.
And so anyway, he got booted out.
And now they booted Cori Bush out as well.
AIPAC spent nine million bucks in support of Cori Bush's opponent.
And so you're going to see a lot of people blaming, you know, the Zionists and everything for this too.
And they really did a lot of work to help kick Cori Bush out of Congress.
So thanks again for that.
But I think the part people are missing is the primary campaign against Cori Bush wouldn't have worked.
If Cori Bush weren't already nuts.
If Cori Bush weren't already disreputable.
If people weren't primed to kick her out of Congress.
I think maybe that's the part that the Venezuelan dictator is missing.
I think that's the part that maybe Imani Califf and the Algerian Olympic squad is missing.
Sometimes, the criticism that people receive is actually just due to their own actions, and it's not the fault of some shady, shadowy, elusive foreign body.
All those things might be involved, but sometimes, actually, we are responsible for the criticism that we receive.
Not all the time, but sometimes.

Republicans are Nazis.
You cannot separate yourselves from the bad white people.
Growing up, I never thought much about race.
It never really seemed to matter that much, at least not to me.
Am I racist?
I would really appreciate it if you loved— I'm trying to learn.
I'm on this journey.
If I'm gonna sort this out, I need to go deeper undercover.
Joining us now is Matt, certified DEI expert.
Here's my certification.
What you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness.
This is more for you and less for you.
Is America inherently racist?
The word inherent is challenging there.
I want to rename the George Washington Monument to the George Floyd Monument.
America is racist to its bones.
So inherently?
Yeah.
This country is a piece of s***.
White.
Folks.
Trash.
White supremacy.
White woman.
White boy.
Is there a black person around here?
What's a black person right here?
Does he not exist?
Hi Robin.
Hi.
What's your name?
I'm Matt.
I just had to ask who you are because you have to be careful.
