Today on the Matt Wall Show, a new study shows that Americans are more depressed than ever.
We talk a lot about mental health in our culture, but the problem only gets worse, so what's really going on here we'll discuss.
Also, Harry and Meghan try out their own Jussie Smollett hoax.
A new drug that turns people into zombies with rotting flesh is spreading through our cities, and a special needs student tells her story of being harassed and punished for not respecting her teacher's pronouns.
In our Daily Cancellation, Caitlyn Jenner has tried to position himself as the voice of reason on the gender issue, but is his view actually reasonable?
Not at all.
We'll talk about all that and much more today on The Matt Wall Show.
Well, they both want to silence any disagreeing voices into submission.

We're often told that we need to have more conversations about mental health in America.
This is a point of consensus, really, across both the left and the right.
Everybody on all sides agrees that mental health is a serious issue and we need to talk more about it.
And we do talk about it.
We talk about mental health.
We talk about talking about mental health.
We talk about the ways that we should talk about mental health when we do talk about mental health.
We say a lot of things about mental health.
We talk about our own mental health.
We talk to each other and to our friends and to our therapists.
In fact, there have never been more people talking about this subject and talking to therapists about their own mental health.
According to a poll released a few weeks ago, The number of Americans who are seeking mental health treatment and counseling has doubled over the past 20 years.
In 2004, it was only about 13% of Americans that said that they had visited a therapist or counselor or psychiatrist over the past year, and now that number is close to a quarter of all American adults, and it's rising fast.
But we aren't just talking.
We're also taking drugs.
Lots and lots of drugs.
Antidepressant usage has also increased precipitously over the past couple of decades.
And right now, last I checked, around 65 million Americans have been prescribed at least one psychiatric drug.
A few years before that, a few years ago, the number was about 40 million.
So these numbers are also increasing rapidly.
Which means that Americans aren't just talking about their mental health problems, they're trying to medicate those problems away.
And yet, despite all of this talking and all of this medicating, mental health has only gotten worse.
So here's the latest from Gallup.
This was reported just yesterday by CNN.
Quote, depression is more widespread than ever in the United States, according to a new report from Gallup.
About 18% of adults, more than one in six, say that they are depressed or received treatment for
depression, a jump of more than seven percentage points since 2015, when Gallup first started polling on the
topic. Nearly three in ten adults have been clinically diagnosed with depression at some
point in their lifetime, according to the survey, which is also a record high. According to the Gallup
poll, young adults reported higher rates of depression than any other age group, and the
greatest increase in recent years was Nearly a quarter of adults under 30 say that they're currently depressed.
Lifetime rates of clinical depression are significantly higher among women, with rates rising twice as fast.
As in men.
More than a third of women say that they've been diagnosed with depression at some point in their life, compared with about a fifth of men, according to the survey.
Also, for the first time, lifetime rates of clinical depression among black and Hispanic adults matched or surpassed the rate among white adults.
Well, there's the racial equity we're looking for, at least.
It's not all bad news.
In fact, this isn't really news at all.
Every few months, it seems, there's another study or survey showing that Americans are increasingly depressed and anxious and lonely.
I think we all kind of get the point by now.
We all understand that.
And the important question is, why?
Why are we such a depressed, anxious, lonely culture?
And the next most important question, once you've answered those, is what can we do about it?
This is where most commentary on the subject seems to fail.
The media will publish the study results, they'll do TV segments about it, they'll bring in a TV doctor to opine for a few minutes about the fact that everyone's depressed, and that'll be it.
There's never any serious attempt to grapple with the why.
Like, why is this happening?
What is going on?
Case in point, here's Good Morning America yesterday morning talking about this Gallup poll.
And bringing in their own expert, their chief medical correspondent, Dr. Jen Ashton.
And here's what she had to say.
As you guys know now, the key after you find a number like this is, what do you do about it?
Right, exactly.
That's the question.
What do you do about it?
Well, I think the first thing is awareness.
Not only in the healthcare field, but, you know, asking patients about it.
But we should ask ourselves.
We should be doing, as I like to say, a checkup from the neck up, just as we do with our physical health.
And then we have to change our approach to mental health and wellness.
And not only jump in when there's an issue or when we're struggling, But prevention.
And that, I think we're starting to get on the right path with that.
But we have a long road.
Ah, okay.
Well, thank you, doctor.
We need to be aware.
I think we basically have that step covered.
Everyone needs to be aware.
Raise awareness.
And then we need to prevent.
And how do we prevent depression exactly?
Well, by preventing it.
You know, the best prevention is prevention.
So, that's it.
That's what we need to do.
Become aware of it, and then prevent it.
Quite simple, you see.
And this is about as deep as the analysis goes, and that hasn't changed either over the past year, even after the most popular theory of depression, the theory propagated by those TV doctors and especially by the pharmaceutical industry, was blown completely out of the water last year.
I mean, for decades we were told that depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain Antidepressant drugs were prescribed with the promise of healing or correcting this imbalance.
Those 65 million people that have taken these drugs, it's been on the, and not all of them are antidepressants, but many of them, it's been on the promise That if you take the drug, it's going to correct the imbalance, and then everything will be fine.
But a major study, if you recall last year, which reviewed previous studies on the subject, found that there isn't now, and never was, any good evidence that this chemical imbalance exists.
It was all a myth, a scam that big pharma used to peddle its drugs.
And yet somehow this revelation has not prompted any introspection on the part of the medical field or so-called mental health experts.
Much of what they've said about depression over the past many decades was grounded in falsehood, and yet they've made no serious attempt to grapple with that fact.
Their approach and their talking points haven't changed.
That's because most of these people are married to a strictly materialist view.
That we are nothing but a collection of chemicals, we are an assemblage of cells, and everything must be explained, and every problem must be addressed on that level.
And when those explanations and solutions fail, they have nothing else to offer.
Because if it's not a mere chemical problem to be fixed with more chemicals, then They won't be able to fix it at all.
The medical industry has medicalized the entire human condition and now can only address these issues on that level.
The result is that they so often miss the point entirely.
So when it comes to the skyrocketing rates of depression, I think that there are, much can be said about it, but there are three major points that are often missed.
Three potential causes that don't often factor into these discussions.
The first one, that I think is one of the most obvious ones, but worth mentioning, is that our lives have been taken over by screens.
Yesterday I saw a chart that somebody posted on Twitter, when I was staring at my own screen, showing how the U.S.
birth rate has declined by 20% since 2007.
And to say that's a steep decline is quite an understatement.
Really, if you look at the chart, the birth rate was rising, and then you hit 2007 and it's like diving off a cliff.
Well, guess what else happened in 2007?
The first smartphone was released.
I don't think that's a coincidence.
The proliferation of screens, and along with it pornography, social media, everything else, has impacted every facet of our lives to a degree that we will likely never completely understand.
And this has also impacted our quote-unquote mental health, and certainly not in a good way.
People are reporting feeling isolated and lonely and all these things because increasingly we are, because our lives revolve around these screens.
Second, at a deeper level, we are a culture that has lost its sense of purpose and meaning.
Church attendance is declining along with the birth rate, two things that are not unrelated.
Religious affiliation is on the decline as agnosticism and atheism ascend.
It makes sense that depression would rise along with all of this because the godless life is a despairing life.
It is a life of pointless suffering and misery.
In a world without God, what is there to feel but despair?
We are dust.
And our existence amounts to nothing and leads to nothing.
There's no real beauty or joy or redemption, certainly.
We are careening helplessly back into the abyss from which we came.
When we die, we will dissolve into the ether and all we are and all we've done, everything we've done, everyone we've loved will be nothing.
Life itself is nothing.
There is no real point to anything.
There's no transcendent meaning.
So it's not a surprise that a society which increasingly holds this view of life would also experience increasing rates of depression.
Now that isn't to say that religious people can't be depressed, obviously.
Clearly they can.
It's just to say that despair and meaninglessness go hand in hand.
And as our culture loses the faith that used to serve as its foundation, it also loses meaning.
The third factor is that, that certainly is not, is almost never discussed, but I think plays into this, is that we, we think about our own feelings obsessively.
You know, the doctor on Good Morning America recommended this as a solution when really it's part of the problem.
She recommended we spend more time doing internal assessments of our own mental health and well-being.
You know, we need to sit around.
We need to spend more time sitting around and thinking about our feelings.
But one of our problems is that we already spend way too much time assessing those things.
We are constantly asking ourselves how we feel, and how we feel about how we feel, and how we feel about our feelings about our feelings.
It becomes this kind of infinite regression.
We can't get out of our own heads.
We're circling the drain of our own ego.
There are different ways to live and this is a very modern and unique way of living.
It's hard for us to understand that because it's all we've ever known.
But it is a very modern phenomenon to have people walking around constantly thinking about their own feelings and assessing their own feelings.
When we visited the Maasai tribe in Kenya for What Is A Woman, I remember, I think I've mentioned this before, asking one of the tribe's women if she was happy with her life.
Because You know, from a certain perspective, when you look around at people that are living in mud huts, and they don't have electricity, they don't have anything, and they barely have furniture, and it's just, there's flies everywhere, and it's hot, and it's, you know, pretty grimy, and you look at that, and you think, well, I wouldn't be happy living like this.
So I was curious, and I asked her if she's happy, and she said that she was happy, because she has a husband and children, and so she's happy.
And I asked her if she ever experienced depression, even in spite of having a husband and children, and she said, no, we don't have that here.
And everyone else seemed to agree that they don't have depression in their tribe.
It doesn't exist.
That's a Western thing, they seem to think.
Now, of course, that doesn't mean that they live lives of perfect bliss.
In fact, their lives are quite a bit harder and more brutal by most measures and not a life that I would want to live.
But when she claimed that they don't have depression, I think what she was trying to say is that they don't spend time thinking about their own feelings.
They don't think about those things as much.
They're absorbed in their duties and their responsibilities.
And if they're doing what they're meant to do, and they're filling their role in their families and in their society, then they're happy.
Those two things are inextricably linked in their minds.
And this is how most people across the world lived historically until modern times.
If you go ask your great-grandfather, if you go back in time to your great-grandfather, your great-great-grandfather, and ask him if he's happy, he would probably respond in a very similar way to how the Maasai tribe respond, by saying something about the things that he does.
Like, well, yeah, I have a family and I provide for my family.
Of course I'm happy.
What do you mean am I happy?
Because this is how most people live.
You're absorbed in the things that you do, rather than being absorbed in your own mind.
It's like putting your duties and your responsibilities and actions first, and then feelings follow, instead of putting feelings first.
We've got to feel right, we have to feel the right way, and then we can start acting.
This is something we might want to think about as we continue to have our national conversation about mental health.
A conversation that tends to go nowhere most of the time.
But it doesn't have to be that way.
Now let's get to our five headlines.

All right, this is a story that has mostly passed me by.
I haven't really paid close attention to it, as important as it obviously is.
So I'm kind of learning about it as we read, and maybe you're learning about it as well.
Here's the latest from Deadline.
Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and Markle's mother, Doria Ragland, were involved in a near-catastrophic car chase.
Near-catastrophic.
Involving paparazzi photographers last night, according to a spokesperson for The Prince.
We're told the trio did not go to the hospital and that they're doing okay.
Well, that's good.
That's very worried.
The incident has been reported by Reuters and Sky News and allegedly happened after Harry and wife Markle attended an awards ceremony in New York on Tuesday, during which Markle received a Woman of Vision Award.
What is her vision exactly?
That's the real news here.
A Woman of Vision Award?
Where is there evidence that Meghan Markle has a vision that extends beyond her reflection in the bathroom mirror?
That's the only vision I think she's thinking about.
In a statement from the Prince's representative, it says, last night the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Miss Raglan were involved in a near catastrophic car chase at the hands of a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi.
This relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours, resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians, and two NYPD officers.
While being a public figure comes with a level of interest from the public, it should never come at the cost of anyone's safety.
The incident, which comes just over a week after Harry attended his father, King Charles's, coronation in London, has horrible shades of the way in which Harry's mother, Princess Diana, died in the late 1990s in Paris.
Some media blame the erratic behavior of the paparazzi as the cause of the fatal crash.
And so, it's almost as if it happened again, we're told, with this high-speed car chase in New York City.
Now, when I, just first reaction reading up on this story, A number of problems immediately arise.
The first one is, what do you mean near catastrophic?
Okay.
What you're saying is nothing happened.
There was no collision.
But you're saying it was nearly a catastrophic.
How could it be?
It's one thing to say, I almost got into an accident, but it was not only an almost-contact accident, but it was almost catastrophic.
So, nothing happened.
It's like you've got nothing, and then you have catastrophe, and you've skipped over all the things in between, and gone right to, it was almost a catastrophe.
That doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
And then also, how...
Would that work exactly?
You know, I've spent more time in New York City than I have ever wanted to spend, and one of the many things about New York City that's just god-awful is the traffic and the fact that, you know, if you have to go somewhere and it's a mile and a half away, And usually you would think, oh it's a mile and a half, I'll get in the car, you know, five minutes ahead of time, I'll be there on time.
No, a mile and a half is going to take you about six and a half hours.
So with traffic that jammed up, how could there be a high-speed chase, and especially one that lasts for two hours, This would have to be, I mean, we're talking about Fast and Furious type of thing.
This is an action movie.
I guess there's a way to do it.
There's a way to engage in a high-speed chase, but you have to be like a professional stunt driver in order to find, to weave your way in and out of New York traffic.
So it sounds like a little bit of an odd story.
In fact, it sounds completely unbelievable.
And then all the updates start coming in with other people who were around this and saw this, and pretty much all of them are saying, no, it was totally fine.
They were in a cab for part of this high-speed chase, and the cab drivers come out and said, no, it was basically normal.
It was fine.
Everything was fine.
Daily Wire has an update from the New York Police Department.
So the New York Police Department responded on Wednesday to reports that Prince Harry, his wife, Meghan Markle, and her mother, Doria Ragland, were involved in a near-catastrophic car chase.
NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Public Information Officer Julian Phillips issued a statement to the Daily Wire confirming that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were escorted by officers while in the city, but said that there were no collisions or injuries involved in their transport.
Quote, on Tuesday evening, May 16th, the NYPD assisted the private security team protecting the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
There were numerous photographers that made their transport challenging.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at their destination and there were no reported collisions, summonses, injuries, or arrests in that regard.
And other witnesses have said, including the mayor of New York has come out and said that it's hard to believe that that would have happened.
Again, anyone who's familiar with New York City knows that there are no two-hour high-speed car chases happening in the middle of New York City.
So this is a story that they invented, not the first time that they've invented a story, but it is It's really extraordinary that they feel the need to stoop to this level.
I mean, this is full-on Jussie Smollett.
This is basically a Jussie Smollett moment.
And what makes it Jussie Smollett is it's not so much the thing that they're claiming is a different sort of thing.
And as far as I know, they're not claiming that the paparazzi had MAGA hats and were chasing them down and saying, this is MAGA country.
So they're not saying that, but it's similar, Justice Millett, in just how unbelievable it is.
Like, if you're familiar at all with the area, anyone who knew anything about Chicago, even if you didn't spend a lot of time there, if you've spent any time in Chicago, you immediately knew as soon as you heard the Justice Millett story, okay, 2 a.m.
In the winter in Chicago and you're walking for a sandwich, that doesn't make any sense.
Trump supporters in MAGA hats hanging out outside in Chicago at night also doesn't make any sense.
And same thing here with this story in New York.
If you have any common sense at all, especially if you're familiar with these areas, the story doesn't even begin to hold water.
And yet they make up the story anyway because they are so desperate to be victims.
And this psychological pull towards victimhood for Harry and Meghan is overwhelming.
They can't see outside of it.
When in reality, it's like they have...
Really nice, comfortable lives.
The kind of lives that most people would kill to have a life like this.
You're rich, you don't have to do anything.
Your whole job is just to be famous and rich.
You live in a beautiful house, all these things.
And you would think, well, why can't you just accept that?
Accept the fact that you have a nice, easy, comfortable life.
Why can't you accept that?
Stop denying it.
Acceptance is the only path to happiness here.
This is true for anyone.
If you want to be happy in life, it has to begin with acceptance.
You have to accept, you have to realize where you are in life and accept reality for what it is.
But for a lot of people, they struggle to accept reality for what it is because sometimes the reality can be quite painful.
You know, it's like if you just got diagnosed with a terminal illness or something.
And, well, it doesn't mean that you can't have happiness, but it has to begin by accepting.
You have to accept the fact that that happened and not try to hide from it.
And it makes sense that it'd be difficult to accept things that are hard.
But for Harry and Meghan, they have difficulty accepting the good stuff.
That you have a good life and a comfortable, luxurious life.
But a lot of this is also cultural, and we know that in our culture, prestige and power comes from victimhood.
And prestige and power is what they both crave most of all, especially Megan.
And she knows that she can't really have it without also being a victim, and so she will try anything to attain that victimhood status.
All right, Chris Ruffo posted this to Twitter.
This is his caption.
A psychiatrist working with Texas Children's Hospital Child Sex Change Program explains how he circumvents parental rights concerns by telling families that if they do not affirm their child's preferred name and pronoun, they will increase the risk of suicide.
Let's watch the video.
The mother asked me, you know, what about my parental rights?
My rights as a parent?
You know, really asking me, can you call my child their preferred name and pronouns?
Okay?
So, and I had a steward with me, and I said, you know, you do have many parental rights, but I have to adhere to my own ethical standards as a physician.
And I know the best thing to do for this child, their mental health, and really even the risk of suicide, is to provide, is to show them that respect of using the pronouns they go by, using the name they go by.
And I'm often kind of working with families in the sense that, you know, I'm not here to kind of question your entire worldview or belief system, but to work with you as a consultant, I can tell you both from experience and from the research, your child is less likely to both attempt and die by suicide if we use a supportive terminology with them and an open mind.
And they're much less likely to have morbidity from anxiety, depression, and a number of other psychiatric issues if we use this affirming model.
Well, as you know, if you've watched this show at all, you know that everything you just heard there is totally false, completely fraudulent.
There is no evidence for it whatsoever.
And all the evidence runs the other way, because of course the evidence runs the other way, because of course you cannot, you're not going to increase someone's well-being, whether their physical or mental well-being, by mutilating and drugging and castrating them.
And taking away Taking things away from them that they don't even understand.
So, for example, you put a child on cross-sex hormones, you are sterilizing that child.
And that means that the child, as he becomes an adult, is never going to be able to have children of his own.
And he's sacrificing that without understanding what he's sacrificing.
I mean, you can tell him.
If the children are even told that this has the effect of sterilizing.
But if you did, if you told a 14-year-old, we're giving you these drugs and it's going to sterilize, you'll never be able to have kids of your own.
Yeah, a 14-year-old will say, well, that's fine.
I don't want to have kids.
But he's 14.
He's not going to feel that way 10 years from now, 15 years from now.
So decisions are being made that the adult version of that child will have to live with forever.
And the child version Might agree to it.
As a child, when children are not psychologically capable of actually consenting.
But the adult version does not.
So, of course, when you do that, you're not going to stave off depression, suicide.
You're just going to create more opportunities for it.
And that's exactly what happens.
So we know that they use this method, but this kind of emotional blackmail, we've seen it many times.
But that doesn't make it any less horrific every time we see it.
And it goes to show that, you know, this is why the parental rights aspect of this issue is very important.
But it is far from the be-all and end-all.
So we don't want to get too hung up on just focusing on parental rights.
Yes, if a child is being transitioned without the parent's knowledge and approval, that is a horrible thing and an egregious injustice against both the parent and the child.
But if you have parental consent, that doesn't suddenly make it okay.
And we know that there are many parents that will go along with it because they are abusive and deranged people themselves.
But then there's this other category of parents who, yeah, they agree to it, but under great duress.
Okay?
It's essentially at gunpoint that they agree to it.
And worst of all, the gun is not being pointed at them, the gun's being pointed at their child.
And they are told, That, hey, you know, you have parental rights, you can say no to this, but if you do, the child's gonna kill himself, and it's gonna be your fault.
Most parents, when they hear that, especially if they go in and they're not prepared for this kind of psychological manipulation, if they're not prepared for it, they don't know what's gonna happen, it knocks them off their feet, and it backs them against the wall, they don't know what to do, and now they're terrified.
Of course, the worst You know, a child committing suicide for a parent is the ultimate worst nightmare.
It's the worst.
It is the worst thing that can happen to a person, to have a child who commits suicide.
It does not get any worse than that.
And they are taking that worst possible thing and throwing it at these parents.
Parents who are already in great distress and are confused and are, you know, they don't know what to do.
And this is what they do.
So they're going to respect the parental rights, but they're also going to manipulate the results by using these emotional blackmail techniques.
All right, here's another update to a story.
Fox News has this about Jordan Neely.
I'll just read a little bit of this.
A retiree who witnessed Marine veteran Daniel Penny fatally choke an erratic homeless man on a train earlier this month called him a hero and slammed Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for prosecuting him.
He's a hero, said the pastor, who has lived in New York City for more than 50 years.
The witness, who described herself as a woman of color, said it was wrong for Bragg to charge Penny with second-degree manslaughter.
It was self-defense, and I believe in my heart that he saved a lot of people that day that could have gotten hurt, she told Fox News Digital.
Jordan Neely, 30, who suffered from mental illness, stormed onto the Northbound F train at around 2.30 p.m.
on May 1st, screaming and threatening passengers.
The woman recalled, quote, I'm sitting on a train reading my book and all of a sudden I hear someone spewing this rhetoric.
He said, I don't care if I have to kill, I will, I'll go to jail, I'll take a bullet, recalled the woman who was in her 60s.
The terrified passengers crowded towards the exit doors.
Quote, I'm looking at where we are in the tube, in the sardine can, and I'm like, okay, we're in between stations.
There's nowhere we can go.
The people on that train, we were scared.
We were scared for our lives.
Penny stepped in when Neely started using the word kill and bullet.
The woman added, quote, why in the world would you take a bullet?
Why?
You don't take a bullet because you've snatched something from somebody's hand.
You take a bullet for violence.
The witness said it was clear to her that Penny waited until the last minute to intervene for the sake of his fellow passengers.
And this is just the latest passenger to come out with a story like this.
And as far as I know, there hasn't been anyone on the other side who actually witnessed this.
As far as I know, there hasn't been any passenger who was on the train when it happened who's come out and said, oh no, I think it's terrible what Daniel Penny did.
That was totally unjustified.
This was an unhoused street performer.
He was performing Michael Jackson dance moves and he was murdered.
No, it appears that all the people on the train, including not just the ones who have spoken to the media, but the people that the NYPD interviewed immediately after this, they all had the same story, which is why they let Daniel Penney go initially and didn't charge him with anything.
Because everybody on the train, the people that were actually there, Tell him the same story.
This guy was erratic.
He was making threats.
We're stuck in a sardine can, as she says.
There's nowhere to go.
We're stuck with this guy.
He's saying he's willing to kill.
He doesn't care if he goes to jail.
That only means one thing.
And Daniel Penney stepped up and did what he felt he had to do.
And by the way, this wasn't even for It's not even for his own sake.
Yeah, this was also self-defense because he was there.
But as a young man, you know, if this guy, if Jordan Neely really went off the handle and started assaulting people, Daniel Penney probably wasn't going to be the one most at risk.
It's gonna be those older women, you know, and other people on the train who are more physically vulnerable.
So really, he stepped up primarily not for himself, but for other people.
And that's why they want to crucify him for it.
Because we can't allow that.
We can't allow people in a community to actually watch out for each other, look out for each other.
We don't want that.
Alright, I've had this clip for a few days that I wanted to play for you.
This is, let's see if I can pull it up, a special needs student at a California high school.
Was allegedly called a bigot by her teachers for mistakenly not using preferred pronouns and objecting to participating in a lesson about scissoring, quote-unquote, and refusing to get undressed near male teachers.
So this is a, it's kind of a long clip.
We'll play a little bit of it, at least.
But this is at a California high school.
It's a special needs student, you know, a girl, talking about how she has been penalized and punished I got in trouble one time for calling this girl, Kenny, a girl.
around men and not wanting to and not even it's not even not wanting to
participate in the preferred pronoun thing but also not not understanding it
let's listen to her testimony I got in trouble one time for um calling this
girl Kenny a girl I said well she Kenny and I I used the word she when I was
using my assignment because we are working together.
I was also in the girl's locker room.
I don't like to dress that at all and that's not okay.
Well, I got in trouble for it because I did not dress out in front of other people.
I didn't dress out for many reasons.
One, there's male teachers inside of the girls' locker room talking to my, um, Miss Lewis.
They go to the same There's the girl's locker room and then there's Ms.
Lewis' office.
Ms.
Lewis has her door open and then there's male teachers inside of her office.
I never wanted to see that.
That's why I don't dress out to a PE.
I was scared.
I was terrified.
Because I was afraid of somebody staring at me, a male, an adult male, staring at me while I'm changing.
That's why I don't change.
And then, um, there was another issue.
I am in the special day classes and I have a one-on-one aide.
My one-on-one aide was Cameron, but they called him Cam.
I guess I was mistaken or corrected by calling Cameron Ms.
Cam.
My parents have always taught me that an adult male is Mr. and their last name or their first name.
Female is Ms.
or Mrs. if they're married and of their first name or their last name.
Um, with Cameron, I called him, yeah, I called him Miss Cameron because I saw the breath.
I'm not saying that I can see, well, what their preferences are because that would be kind of weird.
I saw breath.
I called him Miss Cameron.
Um, many times, more than one time, I have been This just makes me so angry.
How can it not?
Imagine watching that video and not being on that girl's side.
Being on the other side of this.
You have to be soulless.
You don't have a soul.
Um, and this is, this is uh, what, one of the things that makes it so infuriating is that she is, like these, these mind games that we're playing with, with people.
Yeah, this is a special needs student, but really any, any, any kid.
It's like we're playing these mind games with them.
Where she is, is made to think that she's confused and wrong when she's not.
She's explaining, my parents taught me.
If it's a woman, you say miss.
If it's a man, you say mister.
That's what I thought.
I wasn't trying to make any point.
She was just doing what she thought was right and what is actually right.
And apparently the teacher ignores her because she's misgendering.
So she gets ignored and shunned.
So just to review, this is a special needs student who, because she is not cooperating fully with the demands of gender ideology, is ignored in her class by her own teachers, screamed at, and forced to disrobe in front of men.
Even though she's, or lectured or punished if she doesn't.
And this is all happening All of this is happening for the sake of, you know, the feelings of these other people.
This is, this is like, it's a, it's a contest of feelings because we know that the actual facts don't matter.
Facts have been thrown out the window.
And now it becomes a contest of feelings.
And what we hear from the left is that, well, you've got a teacher who is a, I guess this was a female teacher who identifies as a man.
It makes her feel bad if somebody calls her miss.
A special needs student who feels confused and afraid and all the rest of it, you know, she has feelings too, but those feelings don't matter.
It's the feelings of the trans identified person take or have primacy all the time.
All right, here's one other story.
I was looking for something a little bit lighter, but I didn't find it, so we're stuck with this.
Los Angeles officials are trying to stop the spread of the flesh-eating drug, Xylizine, I guess, X-Y-L-I-Z-I-N-E, that's taken over the city.
The zombie drug, a veterinary tranquilizer approved in the U.S.
for cows and horses, is now flooding the illicit U.S.
drug market, with dealers often cutting it with cocaine and heroin.
So these are cow tranquilizers that are now have made their way to the city streets.
But it's most often used to cut fentanyl, the lethally potent synthetic opioid that already kills tens of thousands of Americans every year.
The drug has spread to Los Angeles of late, with news crews capturing people hunched over and on the ground, strung out on the drug.
The problem, Los Angeles County Sheriff's officials say, is that the drug is technically a legal substance.
The county is now desperately trying to track its presence throughout the city.
The DEA and the county's health department have both issued urgent warnings against the use of the drug.
Quote, when combined with opioids like fentanyl, as is frequently the case, it enhances the life-threatening effects of respiratory depression, slowing or stopping your breathing, caused by opioids, increasing the risk of overdose and death.
Tracking the drug, officials say, will allow them to get a sense of just how bad the problem is and the best practices to cut it out.
Nurses have described the wounds caused by this drug as appearing as though something is eating away at your flesh from the inside out.
That's that's where it gets the name zombie drug.
Zombie drug because it gives people the appearance of having their like their flesh is rotting away like a zombie and also because it turns them into zombies wandering around.
And this is yet another reason why we should really be talking about much more severe penalties for the people who are responsible for putting these kinds of drugs out in the market.
Okay, the people that are actually selling this stuff.
The people that are responsible for turning our cities into zombified wastelands.
We should be discussing much more severe penalties for them.
And when I say much more severe, I mean the most severe penalties.
The death penalty.
You know, I think eventually Eventually, I think many conservatives will come around to acknowledging that this at least should be a conversation.
It certainly isn't something we should recoil from, you know, just as if it's an insane idea.
You know, when I brought this up a few months ago, it took a lot of heat even from conservatives, who they didn't just disagree with executing drug dealers, they thought it was a crazy idea.
It's like we shouldn't even entertain the notion.
I mean, all you have to do is look at the effects of these drugs.
It is a form of murder.
You're giving these drugs.
So the fact that they want it doesn't make it any different, doesn't make it better.
You are killing people en masse, and the distributors of these drugs are mass murderers.
There's no question about that.
And they should face the penalties prescribed for people like that.
All right, let's get to the comment section.

Jess says, my father, who's a boomer, has been telling me his generation ruined the country for years.
He's disgusted by what we're dealing with now.
But it's good to know that there are some boomers, some people in that generation, who are willing to admit the failures of that generation.
I mean, the blame game only goes so far, and there's not a lot that comes of it.
We're just pointing fingers back and forth.
But a little bit of introspection would be nice.
And it's good that your dad can engage in that.
What makes it so frustrating is that very often people in the boomer generation will quite enjoy pointing fingers at the younger generations and blaming them and talking about how terrible they are.
And yet there doesn't seem to be any moment of pausing where they go, wait a second, where did that, where did they come from?
Oh, those are our kids that are acting that way.
It's almost like they're asking, oh, there's these damn millennials, who raised them?
Well, you did.
You raised them.
But then the problem is that once you get into the generational blame game, then it's sort of like, well, where does it end?
It doesn't really end, because then we can say, well, the baby boomers, they caused all the problems.
They were a much worse generation, the generation that came before them.
Well then, what about the generation that raised them?
What about the generation that raised the kids who started the sexual revolution?
So it just becomes, what we discover is that we are a fallen race of beings.
None are perfect, but it is helpful anyway to maybe identify certain unique ways that different generations have royally screwed things up, and there are several ways that the boomers have done that.
Photobombing Cow says, character is built from the raw material of suffering.
Boomers did less of it than any generation in U.S.
history.
And then we endlessly hovered over our kids and turned millions of them into hothouse flowers as well.
Turtleski says, just as a random anecdote regarding time wasting in school, I remember the first time I told my parents I was going to skip school.
It was because we were having a field trip to the movies.
My parents, bless their heart, agreed to let me skip, and I instead went fishing with my dad.
Yeah, many different ways that time is wasted in school.
I mean, a field trip to the movies.
I wish that, you know, we took field trips to like the post office and that sort of thing when I went to school.
Field trips to the movies would have been a lot of fun.
Although we did, as mentioned yesterday, we didn't take field trips to the movies, but we watched movies in class constantly, I can remember.
And at the time, I never would have complained about it.
I loved it at the time.
Because I didn't want to have to do any schoolwork.
But one of the things is when you have a teacher that decides, oh yeah, you know, we're going to take this movie and this is going to be a really good lesson for all you kids to watch this movie.
Well, it's like a 30 to 45 minute period, so that ends up being almost a whole week.
That's like almost an entire week of a movie in this class is what you're dedicated to.
And it's not just that.
And some of it, with the time wasting that happens in the public school system, it's not all the fault of teachers.
Some of it is just baked into the pie.
Like, there's the time spent between periods, you know, between classes.
You've got to walk in the hallway from there to there.
You've got lunch.
You've got all these different things.
So some of it is just The fact that you've got hundreds of kids in one building and you're trying to educate them in this kind of factory assembly line style, there's going to be a lot of time wasting already built in.
And that's why it is, when you decide to homeschool, it's really amazing.
You almost feel guilty at first when you see how little time you actually need to spend in a day with formal instruction.
It's definitely not six hours.
It's like a few hours at most.
And if you're actually teaching during that time and your kids are doing real work and you're educating them, then you're done.
It's like sometime around lunchtime.
You're done for the day.
And then finally, Hey Matt, can you please go into more detail about how abortion to save the mother's life isn't really a thing?
I don't doubt that conclusion, but it's hard to find any info about it online.
Thank you, SPG for life.
Yeah, certainly.
When someone talks about abortion that saves the life of a mother, there are a few scenarios they might have in mind when they talk about that.
And in all of these scenarios, it would not be necessary to directly kill the child.
So I'll just give one example that comes up.
Okay, what if a woman is pregnant and then she's diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and she has to undergo, and she's told by the doctors, you know, you have to undergo cancer treatment.
And if you don't, if you wait until the pregnancy is over to undergo cancer treatment, it might be too late.
But if you undergo cancer treatment, it could kill the child.
These are the kinds of things that have happened in real life, and women have been confronted with these kinds of choices.
And so what we would be told is that if the woman says, OK, I'm going to take the cancer treatment, even though it might have the effect of killing my child, we'll be told that, well, that's an abortion.
That's a life-saving abortion.
But it's not.
OK, that's the principle of double effect.
You're doing something with the intent, with a good intent, which is to cure, treat the cancer.
Knowing that it might have this very tragic side effect.
But it is a side effect.
It's not the intention.
You're not doing it deliberately.
And that is not splitting hairs.
That is a very important distinction.
So there could be situations like that, and if a woman is diagnosed with cancer when she's pregnant, that's a decision that she's going to make about how to handle it.
There are women who, you hear cases where they decide, I'm not going to go for the cancer treatment, and then sometimes they end up giving their lives so that their child can live, which is quite heroic.
But I think if the woman decides to get the cancer treatment, I would not consider that an abortion.
It's not.
Abortion is, again, directly and intentionally taking the life of a child.
And there are many other scenarios that we hear, especially late in pregnancy.
We'll hear other kind of medical scenarios where the pregnancy has to end.
You know, something has gone catastrophically wrong, either with the mother or the baby, or both, and the pregnancy has to end.
And if they don't end the pregnancy, then the mother will die and potentially the child will die too.
So these are rare cases, but they do happen.
And yet again, in those sorts of situations, that's where we're going to be told that this is why we need abortion.
Well, that doesn't work because, you know, late in a pregnancy, you can end the pregnancy without killing the child.
You deliver the child.
Will the child be able to survive outside the womb?
You certainly hope so.
Children can, you know, as low as 22 weeks now, I think, a child can survive outside the womb.
With the miracle of, you know, modern medicine.
But, either way, if you deliver the child with the intent of preserving the child's life, doing everything you can to preserve the child's life, that is not an abortion.
An abortion is an extra step.
It's, okay, we're going to kill the child first and then deliver the child.
Which, that doesn't make any sense because the baby has to be delivered either way.
Even if you get an abortion, you still have to lay in pregnancy.
There's still going to be a delivery.
It's just that now it's a delivery of a dead child.
There's no way that that extra step of killing the child first before delivering him will somehow be necessary to save the mother's life.
So that's what it comes down to.
It may be necessary to end a pregnancy, especially later in pregnancy, to preserve the woman's life, but that does not mean that you have to kill the child.
You could deliver the child, alive, and do everything you can to preserve the child's life.
With Father's Day coming up, I've been thinking about how grateful I am that my father did not become a woman.
For all his accomplishments, the greatest might be me, my own life.
Without him, I wouldn't be here.
And while that might be a strange thing to say, we live in strange times, so we shouldn't take the simplest gifts for granted.
Show your appreciation and gratitude for your dad.

Get a daily cancellation.
There are certain people who have, over the years, circled around the Daily Cancellation, come very close on many occasions to being cancelled, yet have never actually been cancelled during this segment.
But everyone's time must come eventually.
And so today, it is finally Caitlyn Jenner's turn.
I believe this is the first time he'll be featured on the Daily Cancellation, but maybe it's not the first.
To be honest, I don't really keep track.
Either way, Jenner, at the age of 73, has recently been attempting to reinvent himself again.
There's been many reinventions of Jenner.
He was born a man, and still is one, became a legendary Olympian, later in life downgraded to a reality TV star, and famously he came out as a woman and was awarded the honor of Woman of the Year and was celebrated for a time as an LGBT icon.
But that goodwill from the left dried up rather quickly when Jenner came out sometime later as a Trump supporter and then eventually ran for governor of California as a Republican in a bid that was, of course, doomed to fail from the beginning.
Like so many failed Republican candidates before him, Jenner's next move was to become a Fox News contributor, where he has now found a new niche, somehow, as a voice of reason on the trans issue.
He has now rebranded himself as a fierce defender of women's sports and an opponent of child transition, even though he had taken both sides of these issues in the past.
He also fashions himself as a MAGA loyalist, hanging out down in Mar-a-Lago and repeating whatever talking points are issued to him.
For example, when the Trump camp decided a couple weeks ago that conservatives shouldn't be boycotting Anheuser-Busch because the company donates to Republicans, Jenner dutifully spoke out against the boycott.
Now, you might say that most of this is relatively harmless.
He's just another person in the media struggling desperately to remain relevant, and that might be the case.
But there's a reason why outlets like Fox News have embraced Jenner, and why some Republicans want him to be our official spokesman on gender issues.
And that reason was laid bare yesterday on Twitter when Jenner responded to a leftist who was accusing him of aligning himself with people who, quote, are trying to erase you and deny your right to body and identity autonomy.
Jenner responded with this, quote, Wrong.
There are a few fringe people that say trans isn't real, but that's not the GOP.
The GOP and MAGA is the big tent party and believe in common sense, principles, no men and women's sports, parental rights, protecting children, etc.
Sorry we don't fit your narrative.
The left is by far the most exclusionary, discriminatory group of people out there.
Fringe people, he says.
And by that, of course, he means me, and everyone here at The Daily Wire, and nearly every conservative who has been fighting against gender ideology in any meaningful way.
We are all fringe, says gender, says Jenner, rather, while he represents the mainstream conservative position on the topic.
Of course, everyone agrees that trans-identified people exist.
So trans is real in the sense that transgenderism exists as a concept, and many people claim it as their identity.
But trans is not real in any kind of objective or scientific sense.
Trans is not a valid category of being.
So I would say trans is not real, and that's what I mean.
It's not a valid category.
And when Bruce Jenner says that trans is real, he's saying that it is a valid category.
But you cannot actually be trans, as being trans means existing, literally, beyond gender.
A transgender person claims to transcend the sex binary, but that's not possible.
It's not real.
It's a false claim.
And there is no way to effectively oppose trans ideology and all of its consequences without opposing it fundamentally.
You cannot legitimize its fundamental claims while pretending to be an opponent of it at the same time.
It doesn't make any sense.
This is the needle that Republican establishments, people to include Jenner, have been trying clumsily to thread.
They want to validate transgenderism while still protecting women's sports and shielding kids from medical transitions.
But that doesn't make any sense.
If transgenderism is valid, then a man who identifies as a woman actually is a woman.
And if a man who identifies as a woman is a woman, then he should be able to compete against women in women's sports.
The only reason to oppose his intrusion in women's sports, the only way that we can even say it is an intrusion, is if we reject the logic behind transgenderism to begin with.
Which means that we would be saying, trans isn't real.
Okay?
You say that you're a woman, but that's not real.
It's not a real thing.
It's just a thing you're saying.
It's a perception that you have about yourself that is false.
But if trans is real, we have no argument against any of this stuff.
If it isn't real, then the fact that it isn't real is our whole argument.
Jenner wants to have his trans cake and eat it too.
His position is totally unintelligible.
I responded to his tweet yesterday and tried to explain that to him.
I said, quote, your position is completely unintelligible.
You assert the validity of transgenderism.
You claim that you're a woman.
You accepted the woman of the year award, and yet you declare that trans women and women's sports are actually men and don't belong there.
It's total incoherence.
To this, Jenner responded, quote, Now, wait a second.
"I've never claimed to be a biological woman. That would be a factually incorrect. I am trans and biologically male.
I'm using my platform to be a voice of reason, an advocate for fairness, a trans example, and not force my thoughts,
beliefs, or identity onto anyone."
Now wait a second. He never claimed to be a biological woman?
I mean, he literally walked down a red carpet and accepted a Woman of the Year trophy.
He goes by she-her pronouns.
He dresses like a woman.
He identifies as a woman.
And yet he's never claimed to be one?
How are we supposed to make sense of that?
Well, we can only assume that Jenner has invented in his head some sort of distinction between a woman and a biological woman.
But if he is a woman, yet not a biological woman, then what kind of woman is he?
For that answer, we have to go back to the first interview he did, way back in 2015, when he first announced his new identity to the world.
Let's watch that again.
Are you a woman?
Yes.
For all intents and purposes, I am a woman.
People look at me differently.
They see you as this macho male.
But my heart and my soul and everything that I do in life, it is part of me.
That female side is part of me.
That's who I am.
I was not genetically born that way.
As of now, I have all the male parts and all that kind of stuff, so in a lot of ways we're different, okay?
But we still identify as female.
Is he referring to himself as we in that interview?
You know, we really can't understate what a significant moment this interview was.
And the Vanity Fair cover and Woman of the Year, you know, that was a period in time when it was a seminal moment in American culture in all the wrong ways.
And transgenderism kind of exploding onto the mainstream of American culture is largely because of this.
Transgenderism was not a prevalent topic of conversation before Jenner.
My point is that Jenner himself is more than any single person on the planet today is responsible for what we're witnessing in our culture today with all the gender confusion.
He has done arguably more than any other single individual who currently lives on the planet.
And yet now he's embraced as some sort of hero of the other side without ever disowning any of that, by the way.
Now, it would be one thing if he apologized for that, and he repudiated it, and he rejected it, and he said, I was wrong about all that.
I wish it never happened.
I'm giving back the Woman of the Year Award.
I'm not really a woman.
I shouldn't have done this.
It was a terrible thing.
Now if he were to do that, it would be quite powerful.
But he's not.
He stands by all of that.
At no point has he confronted it and confronted his own role in all of this.
And yet he gets the Fox News contributorship and hangs out with all the Republicans.
And he says for all intents and purposes, he is a woman.
But he says he's not a biological woman.
So, what does it mean to be a woman for all intents and purposes, and yet not a woman biologically?
Would this distinction make sense in any other context?
Imagine that I came up to you and said, wow, you know, I just saw an elephant walking down the street.
And you said, really?
You saw a real elephant?
And I responded, well, it was an elephant for all intents and purposes.
It might not have been a biological elephant, you see, but it was an elephant in every other way.
Would you be able to make heads or tails of that?
In what other context could a thing be something and yet not be that thing at the exact same time?
This is a sort of mental disconnect that Jenner wants us to accept.
Indeed, he says that this is the mainstream conservative position.
Even though it is, if anything, even more incoherent and less intelligible than the mainstream liberal position on the subject.
And this is the real reason why Jenner is propped up by Fox and by the Republican establishment.
It's what makes him, in many ways, a far more dangerous figure than Dylan Mulvaney or any other left-wing trans activist.
Jenner is the trans-Trojan horse whose goal is to get us to ultimately accept gender ideology by embracing what is allegedly a slightly less radical version of it.
The goal is to pry us away From the one and only sensible, consistent, truthful position.
The position which says, very simply, that there are only men and women in the world.
Every man is a biological man.
Every woman is a biological woman.
Biological is not a qualifier that we can apply to some women and not others.
If you are a woman, then you are a biological woman.
If you are not a biological woman, then you are not a woman in any sense at all.
Not for any intent and not for any purpose.
