Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard for this week's special edition of ThoughtCrime.
Myself, Charlie Kirk, of course, coming on the heels of the sentencing of Steve Bannon.
Donald Trump then holding a huge event in Phoenix, Arizona with Charlie.
He tells us all about it.
Next, we get into multiple controversies.
Caitlin Clarke, Miss Rachel, inviting Dylan Mulvaney on a show for little children.
And finally, has Star Wars gone completely gay?
Ladies and gentlemen, get ready to commit thought crime.
From the age of Big Brother.
If they want to get you, they'll get you.
DNSA specifically targets the communications of everyone.
They're collecting your communications.
Okay, everybody.
Wow, we have not even had a chance to catch our breath.
We just finished hosting President Donald Trump at a town hall, and we rushed on over to the studio to get this going.
Blake, hello.
Hello, Charlie.
Andrew.
And Jack, you missed it.
Charlie, what can I say?
Holding down the fort here in D.C.
where our good friend Stephen K. Bannon just faced a little music today, but we'll see what's going on with that.
Yeah, that looks like four months in federal prison.
Jack, why don't you give the audience the update?
Right, so Steve Bannon was convicted and sentenced back in 2022 over refusing to, what they claim is refusing to comply with the January 6th show trial subpoena.
Now, he was sentenced to that four months, however, it's been held up on appeal.
His appeal recently essentially ran out at the first level.
And so the DOJ, Biden's DOJ, Garland's DOJ, put forward a motion to end the stay on his sentencing, to begin his sentencing immediately.
The judge picked that up today.
So his hearing was held today.
Bannon took essentially one hour off of War Room but came back for the afternoon show even anyway, saying he had a previously scheduled event.
So he has now been sentenced to report on July 1st, so 1 July 1st.
However, comma, there are a few levels of appeals left.
He still can go to the full appeal court.
He can also go up to the Supreme Court, so there's still a couple of chances left, potentially, for a stay of the sentencing.
However, that remains to be seen.
And that's going to be something to keep your eyes on here, big time.
So let's get into the reaction.
Andrew, today's event was pretty amazing.
We have some clips to show here.
We got some clips to play?
We got clips.
Why don't you help us navigate it, Andrew?
Well, I mean, this event came together in a matter of days, Charlie.
As you well know, Trump basically had to keep his entire campaign on hold during the trial.
Obviously gets the verdict back.
On Friday, the whole world goes crazy.
This was his first event, you know, so the campaign instantly sprung into action and said, hey, we're going to go out West.
So this was the first event post conviction in the sham show trial in Manhattan.
And, you know, so it came together really quick, obviously.
He's coming, this is his first stop, now he's going up to Silicon Valley for a big fundraiser with David Sachs and Chamath, I don't know how to say his last name, Palo Mirapana, that's how I said, and then he owns the Golden State Warriors.
Then he's going to Vegas, then he's doing another fundraiser in Los Angeles, which is great.
This event, we held it, it was about 4,000 people, thousands more outside got turned away.
The amount of energy, I know you hear this a lot, being on the ground with everybody, waiting in line, the traffic, the Secret Service, what people were willing to do, I mean, in that heat, it really is a tremendous testament to the amount of energy.
And Charlie, you and I were talking about this, we hosted President Trump in 2020 at this same venue, in 2020.
And this was so much more intense from an energy standpoint than in 2020.
And I think you tweeted it out a few days ago that, ironically, in the aftermath of the conviction, the MAGA movement, the conservative movement, is the strongest that it's ever been.
This event, for me personally, watching Trump's swagger, watching the energy from the crowd, It really is true, and I saw it up close and personal today.
And, you know, I just thought he did a tremendous job.
Everybody was extremely happy with it.
Everybody in Arizona was extremely happy with it.
So, you know, and then the Fox News poll came out on our drive back to the studio.
Which is remarkable.
It shows Donald Trump up more in Arizona than Florida.
Ooh.
Which is good news.
Five points in Arizona, four points in Florida.
Now's the two they polled?
Also Virginia tied.
Virginia tied?
I will believe that when I see it.
That actually proves that the Arizona poll is probably right though.
That if Arizona's up five and Virginia's tied.
That's the second poll that's come out with Virginia tied recently.
Before we get too freaked out about Florida, though, I just want to remind everybody, though, back in 2020, Trump won Florida by, like, 3.5 points.
So that's actually more than his 2020 margin.
So before we get too freaked out about Florida... The only issue is that DeSantis won Florida by... 20, but he didn't have much opposition.
19 points, and he's an extremely popular person.
When you're a governor getting re-election, they kind of, like, give up on it, and you can just really steamroll, like... Chris Christie, I think, won.
I think Chris Christie won by 20.
Yeah, I know.
I think we all assumed Florida was going to go by 10, though.
And that's the only... And it very well could.
I personally don't want to see Florida get tight again and see the Democrats start spending again in that state.
I just want it to be... Well, I mean, look, you can see it both ways.
If they think that they can all of a sudden resurrect Florida, I want them to go spend money in Florida right now.
That's true.
I'd rather have them spend money in Florida.
However, up 5 in Arizona, that sounds too good to be true.
But the energy today was the best I've ever seen in Arizona.
Well, and the registration advantage.
And that's the other news today, is that we woke up today with the news that the net registration advantage has increased by 6,000 votes in just the last month.
One month.
One month.
Yes.
And by the way, that's not even, that's not actually even the full story.
So that's, so for the longest time in Arizona, the number one group of registered voters was independents.
In just the last couple of months, Republicans have now outpaced Independence is the top group of registered, you know, voters.
And I think it's up by 65,000.
One month ago it was 40,000.
So Republicans are outpacing.
They had a net gain of 25,000 in one month over Independence.
Now, Independence and the state tilt right as well.
They break about 55-45 for Republicans.
So you pair all of those things together, you know, the energy is really good.
I think here's the other thing.
If you look at each individual, and I want to get these numbers for you, this is what's really striking here.
So if you look at, there was over 300,000 registered Republican voters in 2022.
That did not vote.
300,000 registered.
Now, we have added to those totals, probably about 150,000 since then, Charlie?
150,000 registered Republicans?
So, you know, it's wild to think, but if we had 10 more ballots chased in every precinct in Arizona, Carrie Lake would be our governor.
If you had just two more ballots chased in Andy Biggs' district, in every precinct in Andy Biggs' district alone, Abe Homiday would be our Attorney General.
And we didn't have any boots on the ground in 2022.
Now we've got hundreds.
And they're all going door to door in these territories where Turning Point Action has identified there's a larger chunk of registered, low-propensity Republican voters.
And so you've got two things coalescing.
You've got polling that shows Trump up by five.
You can feel the energy on the ground.
Every Uber driver I've had in town-- so I got into town.
I've taken four Uber drivers.
Every single one of them was Republican, which is weird on some level.
But so you can kind of feel it.
So you got that paired with the chase, paired with the energy, Trump coming to the state, state 48, first time in almost 18 months.
I think it was a really important visit in his westward swing.
We have some clips to play from the event?
Yeah, let's play them.
He made some news.
Let's see here.
Let's just show.
Why don't we show the line getting into the rally?
1-24.
Did we already play that B-roll?
We might have already just played that.
It's going in the background.
But there was two main themes.
Yeah, so that's the line trying to get into the event.
And by the way, they closed the doors.
And this is the stuff you don't read about.
There was a massive fight between, let's just say, the people that wanted to keep the doors open and the fire marshal and the Secret Service.
And so people, if you were at this event and you were not able to get in, please know that our team is in the inside fighting for dear life to get as many of you into that building as possible.
for dear life to get as many of you into that building as possible.
It's like we were handing out waters.
It's like we were handing out waters.
We were doing everything we could to fight for you guys to be able to get in.
We were doing everything we could to fight for you guys to be able to get in.
And unfortunately, at some point, we end up losing that fight to the fire marshals and the Secret Service.
And unfortunately, at some point, we end up losing that fight to the fire marshals and the Secret Service.
Plus, people don't understand Trump's not president, so he gets like the low budget on the Secret Service totem pole.
Plus, people don't understand Trump's not president, so he gets the low budget on the Secret Service totem pole?
He's not the nominee yet.
He's not the nominee yet.
As soon as he becomes the nominee, apparently he gets to basically call the shots.
As soon as he becomes the nominee, apparently he gets to basically call the shots.
Okay, so people need to understand this.
Okay, so people need to understand this.
The Secret Service has like, you know, a pecking order.
And anything that Joe Biden needs for an event, even though nobody shows up to them, it's immediate entrance.
Yeah, if he needs 15 mags for crowd ingress, then he gets all the mags.
We get like three for 10 times as many people.
And so we can only bring as many people in as we can and it's unfortunate in a place like Arizona where it's like 105 degrees outside.
So anyways, amazing, amazing event.
Those pictures are amazing.
And we could have, Charlie, honestly we could have filled this thing two or three times over.
Yeah, no, without a doubt.
And I mean, just amazing the amount of stamina that people had to sit outside and stay outside.
Again, we would have tried to get through that even faster.
Yeah, let's play 141.
This is too big to rig.
And this is kind of all about the ballot chase.
The theme of the event was Chase the Vote, which I think, by the way, let's not miss the big E on the iChart to see Trump, who's been one of the top critics On early voting and all of these things.
He's changed his tune.
He's got Swamp the Vote USA.
But now he comes and is our special guest at Chase the Vote, which is our project at Turning Point Action, working in conjunction with the campaign on the canvassing side.
And so to have him sort of tacitly endorse that project was huge.
He doesn't care.
However you want to vote, just vote.
Don't be one of the 300,000 that stayed on the sidelines in 2022.
So okay, let's play 141.
These elections, let me tell you, if we could have honest elections in this country, I would have stopped campaigning two weeks ago.
We would have had it made.
But we don't have that, so we're watching it very carefully, and I'm working my ass off to make sure we get too big to rig.
Too big.
We want to be too big to rig.
You know, there gets to be a point where they can't rig it, so we have an expression.
Charlie and I were just talking.
It's called too big to rig.
For the record, I did not come up with that.
For the record.
But I told them how much I liked it, actually.
That it was terrific.
And the tic-tac thing was hilarious, too.
When he said, this is the tic-tac under Biden, tic-tac under Trump, like the little one and the big one.
I love seeing him answer questions in the audience, too.
I thought he was in great form.
And by the way, he's going to be doing that in Detroit as well.
Jack, as an outsider, how did this look?
Well, Charlie, there's a couple of things that you have to look at here.
Number one, it's there's there's a normalization kind of process where it's today's one week, right?
Today's the one week anniversary or the one week, whatever you want to call it, from the historic first crossing of the Rubicon, where President Trump was convicted.
And we were here one week ago on the program saying that history has changed.
But in a way, it's it's almost like politically speaking, yes, of course, we know that it's going to go down in the history books.
But in a way, it's almost sort of like There's Donald Trump.
He's speaking with the people.
Nobody in the crowd seems to care.
Nobody in the crowd seems to think he's a quote-unquote convicted felon, the way the entire media and the entire Democrat machine has been trying to pump over everyone.
And there's Charlie Kirk.
There's Turning Point Action.
Everybody's lined up.
If anything, I would say it shows that conviction Has had a massive backfire because all it's done is rally people to President Trump.
And by the way, Charlie, you know, I know how the process works at Turning Point, having done so many events.
I know you guys don't screen the questions.
You don't, like, try to, you know, go through the people that are going up.
People just walk up to the microphones and they go.
This is obviously, everyone knows that Charlie Kirk likes to answer questions when he does events.
And it's a pretty time-honored tradition.
Not a single person even asked him about The arrest, about the trial, about the conviction, it's almost like it didn't even happen in a sense.
And I think that something that we've really seen here is that this, it's already politically been baked into the cake.
And now what you're seeing with Turning Point Action and joining together with Chase the Vote, this not only was an incredible optic event, an incredible show of force, an incredible sign that Turning Point Action being a partner with President Trump and in this movement is here to stay and is at the vanguard of the movement, But also think of it.
He's doing he's where he needs to be Maricopa County.
He's with who he needs to be in terms of the activists and in terms of the grassroots and in terms of the regular people who he was just chatting with.
And finally, he's doing what he needs to be doing, because, Charlie, as you and I well know, this was the big difference between 2020 and 2022, the chase the vote operation.
Yeah.
And Blake, I want to ask you, does the show of force and the enthusiasm, how does that spell for the future faith in the American legal system?
I mean, it's fair to say a portion of the country almost looks at it as a badge of honor, like a, I like you more now that you're convicted.
I don't know if that's good for the country to be honest.
I don't know if it is either!
I'm not celebrating it, I'm saying it matter-of-factly.
You don't want it to be a long-term thing.
Like, the way you gain credibility is to just be convicted of a thing.
There are certain communities where that is the case.
Yes, and they're not great communities on average.
I totally agree.
And so what we do want is we want this to be reversed, actually, is what should happen.
Like, it's already done a lot of damage.
If we manage to end with this with like some New York appeals court is like, okay, Bragg, you had your fun.
We're overturning this.
Maybe we can have a return to sanity now.
But if not, yeah, we just might be seeing the slow motion decline of America.
And 30 years later, you look back and go, America lost something that day when they Yeah, I just, I feel a little bit torn.
I mean, obviously, I don't, I don't trust our justice system.
And I see in the rally, all these Never Surrender Signs mugshots, and I'm totally, I love it.
Like, I'll wear it, of course.
But at the same time, I say, we shouldn't be in a place where we hate the government so much, and we distrust the people in government, that when you do need to use power to go after bad people, you should want to trust it.
Yeah, and I don't think we want to, we definitely don't want to end up, you know, the way the left was, like, think of how we got 2020, which was we had a decade of the cops are evil and people who, like, fight the cops are good, and then, oh, they burned down all of our cities.
That is how that ends.
And so, yeah, we cannot just say legal system is bad forever.
We have to restore the legal system.
We have to make it great again, as it were.
That's right.
I want to close off this topic here, Andrew.
It is Steve Bannon going to federal prison, Peter Navarro in federal prison.
This law fair, they don't seem to be shying away from it.
It's as if they're full throttle leaning in, trying to take everybody off the chessboard.
Well, you know, it's funny.
I had a thought on this because the president of El Salvador actually was with Tucker Carlson and Tucker asked him about the lawfare against Trump.
And he had a great, you know, I shouldn't be surprised that, you know, he's he's really able to get to the root and the kernel of truth.
And so much when when Naib Kelly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And what he said was he said, if they're able to stop him from competing, then he might be in real trouble.
But if they're not able to stop him from competing for the presidency, meaning, I guess, campaigning, being out there, then all they're doing is giving him more votes and they're making this the greatest campaign ever.
And that really is the question.
If you.
You know, if they can stop him, you know, Bannon said next man up on a show this morning.
I told you on the ride back over to the studio, you know, I said it on our show in the first segment.
I didn't know Bannon said that, but that's exactly right.
If Bannon's in federal prison, Then guess who's going to be hosting a show?
It's going to be Peter Navarro.
Because Navarro's going to get out, they're going to tap on the, you know, they're going to tap your in.
And, I mean, right now we have such a deep bench that the left can't compete with how deep our bench is.
We have so many people that can be spokespeople and spokesmen for this movement.
And I'm telling you, if Trump's in jail, He's going to be calling into shows, like he's going to be popping the quarters in the telephone and making sure he's calling into shows.
And I think, you know, even that, he's just going to be such a sympathetic figure, they're going to make him a martyr.
He would still, I think he would still win, right?
And we would still, you know, and I think it was The former director of the FBI, James Comey, who was fantasizing about this on Jen Psaki's show.
That's got to be talked about.
How specific, too.
Yeah, he was talking about- He's creepy, right?
He's a creepy guy.
And in this part of the prison, there'll be a double-wide trailer and five feet away from- That's where he'll shower and use the restroom.
He's sat down with the head of the Bureau of Prisons.
Do we have that clip?
Have you ever looked at Comey's tweets that he does?
He's a very dark guy.
Like, International Women's Day, he'll just be like, I'm standing up for women.
He, like, dresses like an old lesbian, kind of.
So he's got a J. Edgar Hoover.
We've got the clip.
You don't think he was a cross-dresser?
Hoover was just an authoritarian.
Like, the libs always do this.
Remember, like, libs do this today.
Like, anyone who opposes, you know, this or that Pride Month thing, they're like, you're secretly gay.
Like, they were doing that 50 years ago, too.
Wasn't there some documents or something or eyewitnesses?
He was a weird guy.
He may have been a guy, I think he like, lived with his mom or something.
He was a lifelong bachelor.
We don't need to go down this rabbit hole.
But the point is, the left has always been using these attacks.
This is James Comey.
The specificity that he answers is as if he sat down with the head of the Bureau of Prisons.
I think that's the title, right?
Bureau of Federal Prisons?
Because there's a director that runs all the federal prisons.
And he's like, gamed this out as if these guys were at the Aspen Institute.
drinking wine, like figuring out the logistics of how Donald Trump will be in prison.
Not kidding, by the way.
This was probably like overseeing, like overlooking Red Mountain in Aspen, you know, sipping Chardonnay.
Cut 55.
So a lot of people have suggested that there are a range of factors that would make it difficult to put a former, there's not, the system has not been tested in this way.
Do you agree with that?
That it would be difficult or nearly impossible for the law enforcement institutions to put him in actual jail?
No.
They would just put him in a double wide somewhere out near the fence, out in the grass.
Near the fence.
And he would eat there, he'd shower there, he'd exercise there, he'd be away, as Donya Perry said, from general population.
But it's obviously doable.
Obviously doable.
Obviously doable.
Well, you know, say he was in jail and the American people elected him, which I actually would put the odds on him that he, you know, I think what Naive McKellie was saying, like, if you're able to take him off the ballot.
I mean, because at this point, you would make him such a martyr that he's still going to be competing from jail.
So you lock this man up and he's still gonna be, you probably will make him president.
And here's the other thing I would say is that, you know, he would be able to form a cabinet.
They'd have to, like, they'd have to swear him in from jail.
They'd have to, all of the transition stuff would happen in jail.
The ball is really in the left's court on this one.
Like, they have the capacity to make this really bad for the country if they, yeah, if they, like, stick him in jail, try to make it as humiliating as possible, and then as you say, they screw it up.
I think I really do wonder about this because the pattern you've seen with the left on a lot of this stuff is they've talked about it in a head like it'd be a bad idea like for two years after 21 most of the chatter was I'd be kind of bad to charge Trump you know I think that would backfire and then once someone did it they all lined up to defend it and did all of this and so What I think, and like, you saw a lot of them admitting the cases are weak, but now, oh, he's a convicted felon, this is super valid.
So I think, behind the scenes, probably the consensus is it'd be bad to stick him in jail, but if the judges decided to do it anyway, they'll all defend it, they'll all go maximally hard on it, And then, yeah, if it blows up in their face, that is going to do way more to undermine the credibility of the system, if not merely Trump is convicted, but he gets elected president while in a cell, and New York is doing this obnoxious thing of trying to hinder a presidential transition.
It really is in their court.
It really is.
I want to make sure we get to some of our partners here, and then, Andrew, I want to give you an opportunity to dunk on this D-Day thing, because it's really bad.
Because not only is it bad, it is dishonest.
Because I didn't do that.
I did the opposite of it.
I actually honored the D-Day.
Did I not do a good job?
It's so sick.
You got clipped.
It was clipped by a bunch of social accounts because it was actually a really beautiful tribute.
Did it get clipped?
Yes.
Okay.
So this is D-Day as we are recording this right now.
You might be listening a couple days from now on podcasting.
And I thought we did a really beautiful tribute on our show on D-Day and the heroism.
The Arizona Republic writes this.
By the way, literally minutes after the event.
How are MAGA soldiers and D-Day warriors the same in no same way?
In fact, no, the headline, the other one is, uh, it was way worse than that.
Oh yeah, it's, uh, Charlie Kirk insults D-Day at Trump-Phoenix rally.
I said, quote, they were for fighting against totalitarianism, fighting against a dictatorship.
But 80 years later, if we are honest with ourselves, that very same totalitarianism is now here in this country.
The very same dictatorship that our leaders were fighting, our greatest generation is fighting against, is now here in this country.
And, by the way, what I said at the end of my speech was that I'm not asking you to storm a beach.
I'm asking you to fill out a mail-in ballot and register your neighbors to vote.
Andrew, your thoughts on this?
Now, this gal is... She has an obsession.
She's part of a lunatic class at the Arizona Republic.
Let me just explain how the Arizona Republic works.
The Arizona Republic has a number of regular contributors like this Yahoo.
Can you pull this woman's... Weird dude, EJ, too.
Yeah, Lori Roberts.
She's obsessed with Charlie Kirk.
She goes to bed, she thinks about Charlie Kirk.
She wakes up, she thinks about Charlie Kirk.
Not an exaggeration.
She showers, she uses the restroom, she eats her breakfast, she thinks about Charlie Kirk.
She is a really sick person.
And she's probably written, I don't know, maybe like ten, twelve hit pieces on Charlie and Turning Point.
And, you know, the point Charlie was making, if you weren't a Freakin' idiot, and you didn't have Trump Derangement Syndrome, and you weren't intentionally trying to misrepresent what he was saying, was that, yeah, we have a political movement in this country that has thrown the book at the leading contender for president of the opposition party, who's up in all the polls, has thrown the book at him, just convicted him on a novel legal theory that nobody's ever tried before, based upon an alleged
Allegation at a federal level, a misdemeanor, that was never tried, but it was somehow a conspiracy all wrapped up into one that made it a misdemeanor, and they changed the statute of limitations.
I mean, the whole thing is nuts!
And we're not allowed to react to that, or say that, you know, that's a little totalitarian, maybe, of one of the political parties.
Oh, and by the way, why did the number three from the DOJ, Matthew Colangelo, take a downward shift in his career to go be in the DA's office, the Manhattan DA's office?
What, where did that come from?
Why did they put a convicted perjurer and felon on the witness stand as their star witness?
Why did the, why was the judge constantly in the, in the bag for the prosecution?
Why did they, uh, why did they basically uphold every, uh, uh, I was on a roll, too, but they basically were in the bag for the prosecution.
That's the point.
So all of these things, not to mention that Trump's been indicted in two federal cases, one in D.C., one in Florida.
He's also been indicted on a RICO charge in Georgia.
All of these things, to the normal person around the world, you have foreign leaders commenting on this, and guess what?
I think, Charlie, your conclusion that totalitarianism has come to America is not a far stretch, at the very least.
And so for you to say that these people fought and died to save a free America, to save the shining city on the hill that is a beacon of hope and freedom to the world, and that these own men, in their own words, that we played on the show, don't even recognize this country anymore, and for her to say that we're somehow, you know, Insulting the veterans of D-Day is grotesque and disgusting.
Laurie Roberts, pull your head out of your freaking double-wide bathroom stall and get a clue.
Listen, we've even got clips of this.
She's a journalist.
I know she can afford a double-wide.
We've even got clips of this stuff, right?
Ryan, help me find this clip.
Okay, listen to this.
Cut 112.
Let's play Cut 112.
Laurie Roberts, you tell us if we're misinterpreting this.
The real truth?
Yeah.
I feel like a foreigner in my own country lots of times.
And I don't like it.
It makes my heart real heavy.
And I just hope we can pull out of this.
There's too much Hollywood going on in Washington all the time.
The important subjects they don't cover.
So the thing is, I hope all the guys will rally up and we'll go back and straighten it all out.
Really sweet man.
He feels like a foreigner in his own country.
And, yeah, I mean, seriously.
And, you know, the point is, like, you know who's insulting these men, Laurie Roberts, is to act like none of this even happened.
That all of this was justified.
That going after fake electors, as you call them, alternate electors, as the legal precedent from 1960s in Hawaii would call them, in Arizona, in Wisconsin, in Michigan, in Georgia, some people would look at that and say, Your side, your movement, has lost its damn mind, and you are the insult to the veterans and the heroes of D-Day.
And we're actually fighting to restore some semblance of constitutional republic in this country.
Anyways, I can't stand it.
By the way, last point I'll make on this, Charlie.
I wouldn't even be railing against the Arizona Republic right now if they would let us place an op-ed to retort some of this garbage.
They won't.
We've tried.
We've pre-written them in advance and said, hey, could we get this?
We're happy to work with you on notes.
Nothing.
They won't let us run op-eds in our own frickin' local paper and they're obsessed with us.
Alright, so let's get to the next topic.
What do we have here?
Well, so we go to Caitlyn Clark.
We can go straight to that.
Because yeah, I have a limitation today.
You guys are gonna keep going.
No, wait, wait.
There was another one.
We could do Miss Rachel first instead.
Okay, either of those two.
Which do you prefer?
Let's do Caitlyn Clark first.
Alrighty, alrighty.
Jack, do you have a preference?
I have some thoughts on Caitlyn Clark.
Well, how much time does Charlie have?
Charlie's passionate.
Charlie wants to hit Clark.
Phase this in for the 95% of you who don't watch women's basketball.
So Caitlin Clark was the star of women's NCAA tournament this past spring and the WNBA season runs during the summer so their draft and season starts right after so now she's a WNBA player and the interesting thing that's going on is Caitlin Clark is getting like the crap fouled out of her All the time.
Like, pretty violently.
They're doing the whole, like, Jordan rules, hack-a-shack, just like, wreck her.
It's like 1980s NBA.
It's super aggressive.
It's like how the Pistons used to play.
In a women's sport.
And what's crazy about it, though... Here's the chat.
Yeah, they're showing one of them.
Is this after?
I mean, yeah, but that's full extension.
I mean, yeah, that is a flagrant.
That's like F3 flagrant.
Yeah.
You guys should bring up, bring up the, we're standing, running past each other.
I don't even know how you say it.
They spell her name like Chennedy.
So I'm going to say it.
That's full ejection.
I mean, she should have been ejected.
I don't think she should have been like suspended.
That's what would happen.
That wasn't even a flagrant in the game.
They didn't they didn't call a flagrant in the game.
Yeah, it's like NASCAR drivers You should bring up the players like that Chennedy Taylor or whatever her name is her official portrait because she looks like she she kind of has the face of someone who'd like eat Caitlin Clark like she has very wide jaw and But Like, what's crazy about this, what makes it really bizarre is not that other players on other teams are following her.
What's crazy about it is her own teammates don't seem to care and don't seem to like her.
And that is what makes this really, really bizarre.
I have a theory about this.
It's because they didn't have an offseason to get to know each other.
She got drafted like a month ago.
There she is, by the way.
She was playing in March Madness.
She was playing in March Madness like a month ago.
Yeah, it was quick.
There's no off-season.
It's like, oh, here's this girl who, by the way, she makes like five to six million dollars a year.
She earns all of it.
I like Katelyn Clark.
I think that she's terrific.
Well, of course you would, right?
I have no opinion.
I have no opinion on Katelyn Clark because I would not be comfortable.
She's a Midwestern white girl who can play in the black sport.
Well, I have a theory on this.
And so, what you just said is exactly what the rush to judgment is.
Everybody doesn't like her because they're mad that they've been toiling in obscurity, and then Caitlin Clarke comes around.
They've been toiling in obscurity?
Well, I mean, their best player went to a Russian jail.
The WNBA has been like a thing for what, like 25 years or whatever?
It's been a charity case the whole time.
Totally.
It's been an unwatchable sport.
Absolutely unwatchable.
And then all of a sudden, and we have some stats here, actually.
So check this out.
I think it was Stephen A. Smith, actually, who has it.
Let's play this.
Yeah, 150.
Let's play Stephen A. in his own words.
The kind of stuff that's happening and has been happening over the last few months is because of Kaitlyn Clark.
The second worst team in the league is the Indiana Fever, led by Kaitlyn Clark.
Did you know?
That the fever has been involved in three of the four TV games that have garnered 1.3 million average viewers this season?
These are the most watched WNBA games, are you ready for this?
In over two decades.
That tells you that before Caitlin Clarke came along, it wasn't nearly as popular.
It doesn't mean it wasn't growing in popularity over the last two to three years.
But three years ago, WNBA was an afterthought.
Yep.
And they've had a 143% increase in viewership from a year ago.
Most viewed WNBA draft of all time with 2 million viewers.
And Stephen A goes on to say, you know, the WNBA needs to protect its player.
It's the Golden Goose.
She's the Golden Goose.
So here's my theory.
And I would love your guys' reaction to this.
Jack, I'll throw it to you because you're, you know, on the East Coast.
I believe that it's not about, it is about race, but it's not about race.
In the sense that, it's not that people didn't want to watch the NBA because it was, you know, whatever, predominantly black.
I don't even know if it's predominantly black.
It's because she's a mold breaker.
And here's my proof of concept.
Tiger Woods So I think that's part of it.
It certainly is, but it adds to kind of the notoriety of the story.
all-white sport and golf and becomes the most popular golfer on the planet why because we didn't expect to see a black man be the best of all time and he did it and people loved him yeah go ahead jack sorry so i think that's part of it um it certainly is but it adds to kind of the notoriety of the story it makes the story go bigger but at the same time
um i think when it comes to sports and americans in general it isn't so much about race it's actually more about excellence and And it's actually just that people are looking for stars.
People are looking to follow a team or follow a specific player, in the instances you just mentioned, who is actually really good at their craft, who's built up a following, by all indications.
Ken, I don't follow any of this, but I even just kind of being on Twitter and, you know, following the news.
I've obviously heard of Caitlin Clark and her exploits and her achievements and her accomplishments on the court, being the star player of her team, sticking with them throughout college, now making the jump to WNBA.
And so I don't think they've really had like a breakout play.
America loves a winner and America detests a loser.
And I think that's always been that way, you know.
there was a huge kind of lull in PGA before he came around, and he was just an electric.
And here's the point.
Winning champion.
I think America loves champions.
It goes back to that great Patton speech where he says, America loves a winner and America detests a loser.
And I think that's always been that way.
You go and look at when people talk about, oh, race relations are so bad in America today.
White people hate everything that's not white.
I'm like, go watch any sporting event and go to any fan of any team and see if you can get them to say, oh, I refuse to support that player because of their race.
It's ridiculous.
It's a joke on its face.
And it's just not ever been something that's part of the American tradition.
And so this idea that, you know, that Caitlin Clark is bad because of her race or something, no, I think that's a joke.
Now, that being said, you can certainly add to it because I think there are people who are envious of her and then they try to throw her race in as a way to stay on, to throw on top of it.
But really what they're envious of is the fact that she has talent.
And I think that's what's really going on.
And you see this a lot from people on the left.
It's just jealousy.
Yeah, we talk about it a ton, but remember, and Blake and I have done numerous podcasts about this, that the root of leftist politics is envy and jealousy.
It will always be the root of leftist politics, and the root of leftism in general is envy and jealousy.
It's nothing to do with equality, it's nothing to do with equal treatment and social justice, and those are just words they kind of make up to throw around, but at the end of the day, it's all envy.
Jack, Blake has a point on this that differs slightly, so I think this will be a good lead-in.
Cutfit 154, this is Angel Reese, another WNBA player, complaining about Kaitlyn Clark.
People are talking about women's basketball, but you never would think that we'd be talking about women's basketball.
People are pulling up to games, we got celebrities coming to games, sold out arenas, like, just because of one single game.
And just looking at that, like, I'll take that role.
I'll take the bad guy role.
The reason why we're watching women's basketball is not just because of one person, it's because of me too, and I want y'all to realize that.
Who is this woman?
Angel Reese.
I'm not watching because of her.
I will say I watched about 15 minutes because I was in a restaurant while the women's final four was on.
You disgusting.
By the way, it was right before the men's final four.
My dad was in town and I remember I said, my goodness that's a low quality of basketball.
You depressed me, Charlie.
It's unbelievably...
You fell for the sign up.
I have great respect for Caitlin Clark, but it is watching above-average high school basketball.
No, but here's the thing.
Men's high school basketball.
No, but some women's sports are fun to watch.
I actually enjoy watching...
Sorry.
You're going to say volleyball?
No, I was going to say soccer.
I was going to say...
No.
Not with this current world team.
I need to interject.
Tennis.
I like watching tennis.
But by and large...
Yeah, volleyball is actually pretty good.
I need to interject.
He said it was like above average high school basketball.
No, that's right.
It is like below average high school basketball.
No, that six-foot-seven girl on South Carolina, she could beat most high school basketball players.
Charlie, I believe that if you took a state champion high school basketball team from not a top state, just like a great plain state.
I said above average, like South Dakota.
You said they were above average.
I don't know.
No, I said that the girls final four is about at the level of an above average high school baseball team.
Remember, the U.S.
women's soccer team practiced against middle school boys in the Dallas area and lost.
But what I'm saying is that an above average high school team, so a team that goes like... Ooh, women's MMA.
Sorry.
That goes 23 and 10.
That goes 23 and 10.
That's about the level of women's final four.
About women's final four.
No, Women's Final Four is probably about on par with like a good middle school team, I bet, for men.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
They would be in college women's college basketball.
I said women's college final four basketball is on the level of an above average high school males basketball team.
No, no, they would get an above average man.
High school team would absolutely annihilate a women's final four team.
That's annihilate them.
So here's, when I was in high school, here was the rule.
The rule was this, that the varsity women's team plays even with the freshman boys basketball team.
That is a rule that is like, it's like a rule of nature.
The 14-year-old boys freshman team plays even with the girls varsity team.
Four-year difference, it's about even.
I'm just saying, like, that's So that's science.
I'm introducing data.
Can we have a turning point basketball game?
We could test it out.
We could ask the ASU women's basketball team to play a sophomore boys basketball team and who would win?
Well now now we're a sophomore team versus ASU.
We were saying she's not very good.
So I'm lowering I'm lowering the I mean, they're still I mean, here's the thing Kaitlyn Clark This is part of why Kaitlyn Clark was a superstar by the way is because she was there you against women though.
Yeah, she's a women's player.
The talent pool is shallower for women.
Of course.
And so a really, really good player in women's college basketball just destroys the competition harder than you'd see in a male league where there's more good players.
So here's what Angela said, and Angela's half right.
He says the ASU girls' basketball team would shoot the dudes out of the arena, but the problem is men play so much better defense and more physical, they wouldn't get a shot up.
They're used to, like, I was watching the Final Four.
And I don't think they'd out-shoot it.
Caitlin Clark is not even being guarded.
They have a shorter three-point line and stuff, too.
And a smaller basketball.
Yeah, and a smaller basketball.
It's a 28.5 basketball.
If you ever see a basketball that says 28.5, that's a women's basketball.
Men's, I think, is like 30 inches.
Again, I'm not knocking Caitlin Clark.
It's apples to apples.
I just found it very hard to watch.
I'm just being honest.
She was excellent in her way.
By the way, she beat Pete Maravich's record in five years, but she still beat the record.
It's not the record, though, because it's a different sport with different rules.
It's a smaller ball.
You have a take on why she doesn't get along.
Here's a take.
So, she's not, it's not about her, it's not, basically she's not under attack, she's not getting destroyed, like, abandoned by her teammates, and, like, followed by others, because, uh, because she's white.
It's because she's a woman.
Now, this is not about, like, oh, the WNBA is full of, uh, surprises.
It's that, I think this is a real thing, that, like, For lack of a better way, I think women don't have the same engagement with intense teamwork, camaraderie, that I think comes more naturally to men.
You mean they end up being clicky?
Clicky, but it's also that a male team really understands... This is a very smart point, and I have to interject.
If the number one draft pick in the NBA was treated this way, all the bros on the team would rally behind Kyrie Irving, for example.
If a player had done that, if a player did that, or look at an NFL game, if someone does that to your player in the NFL, someone would actually get expelled because they would punch them, deck them.
If Caleb Williams, the number one draft pick for the Bears, got punched in the face, the benches would be cleared and they'd be like, you do not treat our boy that way.
Yeah, it's an attack on our honor to allow that to happen.
So why is it that Kaitlyn Clark's teammates aren't defending her?
So, that's kind of what I think it is.
It's like, it's different, you know?
It's often observed that, like, female friendships are more fragile than male ones.
Like, you know, it's the famous stereotype.
Men can, like, argue and be like, I hate you!
I'll rip your throat out!
And then, like, the next day nothing happens.
You mean like Andrew and I's, like, pre-show call?
And then, but like, women, it will be like, there's some social faux pas and they're enemies for life.
But hold on, this is interesting what you're saying.
Okay, I just want to say, I I disagree with you to some extent because I've seen college softball teams.
We had a good family friend.
She was an All-American UCLA softball player.
And I've never seen a group of girls, or a group of anybody, as tight as this.
And maybe that's part culture, team culture, leadership, coaching, whatever, or time spent together.
I think Charlie's point about the fact that they went straight from, you know, the Final Four.
The draft happened and then they're already playing.
It was really abrupt.
Just watching them from the outside, not knowing their schedule.
It was very quick.
I think they take it more personally.
Let Andrew finish the point.
You have so much softball, right?
No, yeah, so I've never seen this softball team.
I remember watching them and having multiple conversations about how close this girl's softball team is, and I'm sure the comments in the chat are going wild.
I'm telling you that it was a very normal group of girls, this particular class, UCLA, they were like ranked number three in the country, whatever, and it was just the camaraderie was, you could see it, it was so obvious.
But it is interesting, to your point, that All the people, all the clips we have of people defending her are men.
Charles Barkley, Stephen A. Smith, we got Pat McAfee, right?
McAfee.
McAfee, right.
McAfee was, he screwed it up.
He screwed it up, but he was actually calling her kind of like, she's a bad B.I.T., you know, like that's what he was trying to say.
No, I agreed with what he said, and then he totally, like, walked it back.
Yeah, do you want, should we play the clip if we're gonna, yeah.
Go ahead, Jack, sorry about that.
No, no, if you have the clip, play it, yeah.
But I would like the media people that continue to say, this rookie class, this rookie class, this rookie class, not.
Just call it for what it is.
There's one white bitch for the Indiana team who is a superstar.
And is it because she stayed in Iowa, put an entire state on her back, took a program from nothing to a multiple year success story?
Is it because she would go on to break the entire points records in the history of the NCAA?
Not just the women's record by Kelsey Plum, shout out.
But also, Pistol Pete Maravich's, the dude's record as well.
Is there a chance that people just enjoy watching her play basketball because of how electrifying she is?
What she did, what she stood for, how she went about doing what she went for?
Maybe.
But instead, we have to hear people say that we all like her because she's white.
And she's the only popular because the rest of the rookie class is doing what they're doing.
Well, that's a bunch of bullshit.
And we think the WNBA, more specifically, their refs need to stop trying to screw her over at every single turn.
So that was a little all over the place, but I mean, look, it's very, so 63% of the NBA is black.
WNBA.
I'm sorry, WNBA.
The NBA is probably even more than that.
But is there a, this is a thought crime, is there like a pent-up frustration that the best players right now in both the NBA and the WNBA tend to be white?
You will see a bit of this.
Luca from Dallas.
No, the NBA was Nikola... Nikola Jokic.
For like three years in a row in Denver, they won it last year.
Is that a thing?
I'm totally asking.
You will hear... I don't have a strong opinion.
I don't know that you'll... You won't hear it from everyone.
You would occasionally hear takes that were like, we can't let Jokic win MVP because, like, they were territorial.
Like, this is our award.
Like, our... But was that a fringe, like, weird podcast?
I think it was more weird there.
It's funny because Charlie and I, like both, I would say are both our favorite NBA players of all time is Michael Jordan.
It's the best NBA player of all time.
Best and favorite.
It's not Larry Bird, not Dirk Nowitzki.
Yeah, it's Michael Jordan.
I ran into Michael Jordan last week.
Did you really?
Yeah, at the Charlotte race.
I don't know if you guys have seen Michael Jordan when I was at the NASCAR race last week, and I don't know if you guys have seen Michael Jordan recently.
He is a guy that has not had a great life post-NBA.
Did he get fat?
Yeah.
If you watch him in that Bulls thing, he looks like a deeply unhappy person.
You're talking about the last day?
It's the best.
I didn't recognize him.
I didn't recognize him.
Did you watch his Hall of Fame speech?
I was like, that's not him.
And then he turned, like, and I saw the earring, right?
And I saw the smile.
He, like, smiled at somebody.
And I was like, oh, wow.
And it's like Michael Jordan, obviously one of the most famous people in the world.
Like, how would you not recognize him?
And I had heard that he might be around anyway.
It was North Carolina, obviously.
And he owns a team.
Used to have sold it.
No, no, no, the NASCAR team.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Yeah, he sold the Charlotte Hornets, but yeah.
Yeah, but he owns the NASCAR racing team.
That's why he was there, and I was just, like, taken aback.
Just taken aback.
Cool to run into him, though.
Yeah, so let me, let's, again, I don't know what the whole thing is, but there is this, like, there's three elements to this.
How much they hate Kaitlyn Clark, we don't know why.
Why her teammates are kind of like, yeah, we hate you too, and we're not going to stand up for you.
And then the third thing is why is Kaitlyn Clark taking it?
Like, this is where, like, a male masculine energy would, like, press conference, I'm the best player, I broke the records, screw you guys, I want to trade, I want to go to a team that will respect me.
Instead, she's acting awfully feminine.
Well, I don't like that.
I would say that's a modern mentality that has become popular.
It's like a post-Muhammad Ali thing of, like, liking athletes who are really arrogant and have huge... I totally love that.
If you're good.
No, if you can back it.
I totally disagree.
The traditional, like, pre-Muhammad Ali norm was like, you should be a humble guy, even if you're world class.
No, no, no.
Stan Musial would never do that.
Only if you're good, you can have bravado.
It's like when you're Colin Kaepernick, you're not allowed to call a press conference.
No, the traditional values were just, you should be a humble guy, even if you're really good.
Lou Gehrig would never do that.
Stan Musial would never do that.
Ted Williams would do that.
It was a better country!
Fair enough, but I don't think it was better because athletes had bravado or not.
But it was.
I think that Michael Jordan being like, I am the best player, I will see the Utah Jazz in Game 6, and I will beat you.
I think there's something incredibly American about that.
Like that, I'm going to call your bluff.
I'm going to meet you at the highest stakes, and let's see who wins.
This is the loss of American values.
Traditional American values wouldn't go for that.
No, no, no, no.
I disagree.
But anyway, Kaitlin Clark taking it.
So you think Kaitlin Clark should just take it?
I think Kaitlin Clark should get a different profession because women's basketball is lame.
But her taking it, I mean, what's she going to do?
She's popular largely because this is her persona.
It depends how good she thinks she is.
People don't like, like, do you like Megan Rapinoe?
That's how Megan Rapinoe is. - She's not that, I don't think she's that good.
She's great.
They won a bunch of titles.
They lost in that later one.
She totally screwed up recently, but fair enough.
I actually will say I like how she's being understated about it.
I mean, she was asked about the Czech foul.
I saw a clip where she said, yeah, I don't think that's a basketball play, but you know, whatever, like our defense needs to be better.
So she's kind of, she's trying to be a teammate.
She's trying to kind of like play down some of the controversy.
I don't have a problem with her reaction to it, but you might, Charlie, to your point, at the end of the year, she might be like, yeah, I want to trade.
Anyway, I want to go to the next topic here.
If you can back it, if you're all talk and no action, but I think that there's something pretty amazing when you are at the top of your game and you're able to support the smack.
By the way, no player in history talked more smack than Michael Jordan.
On the court.
On the court.
Right, Andrew?
Well, that I would be into.
If she was like, chirping.
No, she should have been like, come on, let's go.
You don't like chirping on the court?
You're trying to tell me Babe Ruth called the shot.
That's like, kind of an urban legend.
No, they have a video of it.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
We don't know exactly what he was doing.
We don't know exactly what he was doing.
Blake alternative history.
Yeah, yeah, sorry, man.
Next thing you're going to say is the Nuremberg trials were rigged.
What?
That's not out of the blue.
They were rigged, by the way.
See, I got it.
They were still guilty, but it was totally a Soviet show trial.
I know his pressure points to get him to agree to the...
All right, what do we have here?
You have kids.
You know who this person is, right?
I had never watched.
But I never watched at length, but this thing is forced upon you in the YouTube algorithm.
Yeah.
If you have any kids content, this stuff is forced.
And it's right, Jack?
Am I correct?
So if you so back before we got rid of YouTube at the house, you know, when we had our first kid, you know, we would we'd go on YouTube, you know, kind of discovered YouTube kids.
And we said, oh, there's there's some good stuff on here.
And You know, we wanted to, you know, wanted to find some content that we thought was good for the kids and put it on.
And the minute you start, so the half of the stuff is like toys and kids playing with toys on kids YouTube.
By the way, if you go and look, I actually did this earlier this week, at the top 10 YouTubers, I think half of the top 10 YouTubers on the entire site, all channels are kids related content.
Right?
That's how big kids YouTube is.
It is dominant.
And I'm talking like, you know, stuff like Cocomelon and Baby Shark and kids playing with toys.
It dominates on YouTube.
Miss Rachel is everywhere.
For the last four-ish years has just been completely, you know, the way that a conservative content gets blacklisted on YouTube, she is the whitelist of the whitelist, is always fed to you.
I bet she just, like, her revenue off YouTube must be insane.
I was looking at some of her clip views.
I mean, she must, I mean, I bet she, Jack, I mean, I don't know if you've looked at the numbers, but she's probably doing, like, 200 million views a month or something like that.
Um, I can pull it up.
I'm sure she's got a few videos that are in the billions.
Wow.
Yeah.
Okay, so, the controversy.
Do we have the video of her Pride Month thing?
Uh, yeah, so the actual video is, let's see here, she posted this for Pride Month, 1-27.
Happy Pride to all of our wonderful families and friends.
This month and every month I celebrate you.
I'm so glad you're here.
I'm so glad you're exactly who you are.
To those who are going to comment they can't watch the show anymore because of the support, no worries and much love your way.
God bless.
I am not chasing fame or views.
I'm standing strong in love.
And her YouTube is monetized.
Oh yeah.
She's chasing a lot of views.
I looked at, she has, as of April 16th, 6 billion total views, 9.2 million subscribers.
I mean, how much money do you think she's made off that?
Maybe like... A million a month is what they say.
She makes a million dollars a month?
Yeah, a million a month.
Holy... And by the way, the videos are so cringe.
I always thought she was super creepy, for the record.
I just think there's something about her.
Is that fake intonation and that high octave?
Like, what are you, still nine?
Yeah.
Yes.
I don't like it.
It really turns me off.
For little kids though it's because it's not because it's not coded for you for little kids that and and obviously you're a little kid so you know this that's when you talk to little kids in that voice they immediately are drawn to it and they're sucked right in they are sucked right in because they hear that you know you go super high it's it's the mom voice it's the baby voice we all know it I'm not even going to try to mess around doing it right now
She hits that and she locks in and there's there's kind of a joke you say like well miss Rachel never gets tired right and so so for a lot of moms out there what they'll do they'll throw miss Rachel on and then boom kid gets to watch miss Rachel and mom gets to go do something else mom gets to be on the phone mom gets to be you know a million things that mom do I'm not I'm not knocking that in any way I'm just saying that this is the way her channel works Her most viewed video is an hour long and it has 820 million views.
Yeah, just on that alone, she probably made like 3 million bucks.
Yeah.
And what she'll do is she'll splice different things together.
It's not like she's doing a full hour.
And so, you know, you can reuse videos, you can do videos over and over.
And so one of the big things here with the Pride Month, that's a part of it.
She's always had this sort of non-binary gender fluidity kind of thing, Nate Jules, on the program.
And people can go, I think Allie Beth Stuckey was looking into this earlier this week, and she's done a lot of good breakdowns on this whole controversy, and found that in Miss Rachel videos, you can actually, because they show you publicly the most viewed times now, most replayed, so you can find that the times that Jules because they show you publicly the most viewed times now, most replayed, so you can find that the times that Jules are on screen, the viewers just drop,
And this has been someone who's like on the show and come for the entire time, and this guy thing, whatever we're supposed to say, Jules, Matt Walsh had a great thread, because I think someone from, Someone who worked with him actually went to this Jules event, who again, this is like Miss Rachel's sidekick, who was performing at a drag show over the past weekend for the kickoff of Pride Week, Pride Month, whatever.
And and then the really big controversy, and this is why Miss Rachel is being like, quote unquote, canceled all over all over TikTok.
Well, number one, she was a controversy because she did like a whole video about Gaza, which I'm like, that seems kind of strange for They can't help but groom.
you know, children's content creator to be getting into.
Kind of some rough content for the little ones.
And then number two, in a TikTok comment, it was uncovered that a while back, she publicly invited Dylan Mulvaney to appear on the show.
And again, she does the shows for the youngest of the young children.
They can't help themselves.
I have no idea about this stuff.
They can't help but groom.
I'm not kidding.
And just really quick, I have to go in a second here.
I'm borrowed time with our two little ones, two under two, There's a part I need you to respond to though, Charlie.
Okay, but just let me say really quick, is that the reason she has soared to fame is the amount of speech delays, inexplicable speech delays with young kids.
And so she is the number one promoted by the Autism Foundation and all this.
Turn on Miss Rachel.
Helps your kid talk.
So there's like a buried lead of that, that she's basically pushed by the major institutions.
I mean, if you talk to any pediatrician, they will be like, Miss Rachel, just turn it on.
For example, one of our family friends.
How about you talk to your kid?
Well, no kidding, right?
Read their books.
So I'm just legit.
So we have a family friend who was in the hospital when we had our firstborn.
We know them very well.
Their daughter is still not speaking.
Our daughter speaks too much.
Like nonstop all the time, right?
And their daughter, you know, it might happen.
It's like right before 20, she's like 21 months.
And the doctor is like, yeah, just turn on Miss Rachel all day.
I kid you not, it's prescribed by the pediatrician industrial complex.
Essentially.
So pediatricians are just as fake as the CDC at this point.
I'll be honest with you, the amount of irreversible damage done by some pediatricians is a whole thought crime that we could do at a different time.
I'm in on this.
Try and, like, pick and choose a couple, like, vaccines.
Like, hey, I want to just, like, give this one here, and then I don't, I want to wait six months for the, like, they will kick you out of their pediatrician's office.
We have a pediatrician.
It's not even anti-vax.
Who is amazing, and she's, like, it's all parents' choice, parents' rights.
Yeah.
And she had a, you know, she has her own.
I like some of them.
They're months late on talking.
Have you considered using different pronouns?
Have you considered, you know, whether they need to be mutilated?
No, seriously.
Okay.
Do you think they're trans?
Are they trans?
Are they trans?
But you want me to respond to something, Jack, then I gotta go.
but well I want you to respond to what Miss Rachel did next this is what Miss Rachel did next and this is what I I was like but I admitted I saw this I was like I need Charlie's take on this she comes in and says you know folks and then so she takes off the Miss Rachel costume and the uniform etc and she comes back and said and she's like now I'm just talking as Rachel and she goes the reason I am this way is because I'm Christian and in the Bible it says love your neighbor
And really, I approach people in love, and if you're not doing that, I guess you're not really following the Bible.
I shouldn't say that part, you're not following the Bible, but that was kind of the underlying piece there.
So Charlie, what's going on with that?
Well, let's let her say it.
120, I'll respond, and then I gotta dash.
I've shared prayers on here before and said, God bless, and that's because my faith is really important to me.
And it's also one reason why I love every neighbor.
In Matthew 22, a religious teacher asked Jesus, what's the most important commandment?
And Jesus says to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself.
All the law and the prophets hang on these two commandments.
There's no greater commandments than these.
I believe it's mentioned eight times, love your neighbor.
So yes, everyone belongs, everyone's welcome, everyone is treated with empathy and respect.
It doesn't say love every neighbor except.
There are so many reasons I stand strong in love.
I stand with everyone.
That's who I am.
And the love back, and the God bless if you disagree, is genuine.
Andrew?
To Jack's point, I'm dying to know, what do you think when Miss Rachel quotes scripture in that way?
I mean, Satan's quoted scripture plenty.
It doesn't just say love your neighbor, though.
It does say love your neighbor, except in a sense.
As yourself.
But hold on.
She's not totally wrong when she says, first of all, the first part is Deuteronomy 6, 3-5.
The second part is Leviticus 19.
So you love God.
So you must love his law.
How do you love somebody?
You love them by telling them the truth, not by confirming or affirming their sin.
And it says, by the way, Miss Rachel, you might want to crack open that Bible of yours, in a lesser referenced part of the same part of scripture is in Leviticus 18, is that thou shall lay with another man shall be stoned to death.
Just saying.
So, Miss Rachel, you quote Leviticus 19, love your neighbor as yourself, the chapter before Affirms God's perfect law when it comes to sexual matters.
Now, so how do you best love somebody?
You love them by telling the truth.
You don't have to be cruel.
You don't have to be, um, un-Christ-like in your communication.
Yeah, you don't have to be mean.
You don't have to shout.
However, you'd certainly, and I would love for Miss Rachel to respond to this, is pride a Christian value?
She thinks it is.
Happy Pride Month, everybody!
Is being proud something that we should pl- No, it's that, in fact, the scriptures tell us the opposite.
Pride go with before the fall.
That pride is something we need to try to reduce in our life.
To increase humility.
And increase piety.
And obedience.
Say that?
I said there is one list that pride's on.
Well listen, the Bible says have a sober view of yourself, right?
Yes.
And it also says in Matthew 18, 6 through 4, if anyone causes one of these little ones, those who believe in me, to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble.
Yeah.
And so it's very simple.
So how do you love somebody?
You love them so much to correct their error.
Yeah.
And so let's just, you know, take the pride conversation out because people think it's an identification.
Well, it's not.
It's just sexual behavior.
But it's if you meet an alcoholic or you meet a drug addict, do you affirm their struggle?
No.
You say, you're better than this.
Let's get you free from that.
Let's get you free from that activity.
So Miss Rachel, you're actually not loving anybody.
You're doing the opposite.
She loves the money, I bet.
She's making a lot of money and she wants the YouTube cartel to treat her kindly.
That's why she did this.
The big picture here is don't let YouTube raise your kids.
- Right in the world. - What Charlie just said, I mean, listen, YouTube, Charlie's YouTube is going through the roof right now.
Currently demonetized.
It's currently demonetized.
So I make zero money on it.
We make zero money on it.
Other people make millions of dollars on my stuff.
Yeah, so.
Which is fine, but whatever, great.
Here's what I'll say.
The views have gone up, our team's done a great job.
Almost 2 million subs.
Yeah, and we're almost at 2 million subs, we get almost 100 million views a month.
It's nowhere near what we do on TikTok and we just started TikTok, but like, it's been a massive battle.
One of the main battlefronts Is the fact that Charlie would get into these debates on college campuses and say that your trans, uh, this radical gender ideology, or if you're a trans person, that person has a mental delusion, or a mental illness.
Which used to be in the DSM-5.
By the way, yeah, which was literally what doctors had agreed upon for decades and decades and decades.
AMA, all of it.
So you can't say that.
So we would constantly get strikes when they would find a new video or get flagged, and then you get a strike and demonetize and everything goes, you know, the views drop off a cliff, by the way.
You might have been doing like 10 million views a day, all of a sudden it's like one of those strikes happens and they completely throttle your account.
You get like 200,000 the next day.
So the fact that what you just said is really spot on, because she's sitting there probably making a million bucks a month or more on her videos.
People's speech delays, I just want to be clear about that, which is really sick.
Which is really sick.
She is, that is a tip of the cap, here's where my, I know who butters my bread, I'm gonna do the thing.
I am one of you.
Yeah, I'm one of you, YouTube, I'm following the regime talking points, and I love everybody, and that's just simple for me.
Alright, I gotta dash to get my 21 month old to bed.
Charlie's, yeah, Charlie's had a full day.
I've had a full day, and I've had a lot, I've asked for a lot of favors, and now I have to go do my part, so.
See you guys at YWS tomorrow.
Alright.
Very good.
Should we keep going?
Jack?
Jack, do you want to lead us in the next one?
Jack, lead us on the next one.
Well, let me, let me, let me throw down a quick, you know, just response on, on the whole Miss Rachel part, because it's, it's, it's common sense, right?
Something, I was talking about this with my aunt, actually, and she goes, she goes, well, what if your neighbor is a cannibal?
Should you love your cannibal neighbor?
You know, it's very clear that there are people who love to use these things to destroy, you know, destroy the actual meaning of the Bible by taking one, you know, a phrase, pulling it out and saying, well, that's all it means.
That's all it means.
And you see is throughout Western Christianity.
And so that's how you can get someone who can say, oh, I want this.
You know, I want this for everybody.
And I'm going to now be a children's educator preaching it directly to them.
Also, Blake, I wanted to I wanted to double check with Blake before we move to the next paragraph here, the next chapter that I think you just looked up a certain speaking of passages in the Bible.
I think you just looked up one.
Can you help me with that?
We were talking about the millstone verse with, you know, if someone corrupts a child, throw them into the sea.
So we looked up our old favorite, the Hawaiian Pigeon Bible, the Bible translated into Hawaiian Pigeon English, which it narrates that verse in the following way.
Fortress.
Jesus tell, "These small kids here, they trust me.
If somebody try make 'em for them no like, trust me, no more, more better take one mangus heavy stone from the mill and tie 'em around the guy, then throw him in the deep water for drown." For drown.
It's the word of God.
Oh my goodness.
Incredible.
Incredible.
Yeah, I wanted to, so okay, our next segment here is, so we're going to the next section, we're good, we're good?
The new Star Wars series, The Acolyte, is being heralded as... And just for record, I haven't followed anything Star Wars in, I think, years at this point, so I couldn't even begin to tell you what this has to do with any Do we actually have the clip on this?
or in any of the movies or shows this fits or whatever.
146?
Yep.
And so we're told that this new series is, quote, the gayest Star Wars yet, according to the producer in the cast.
They then also say that R2-D2 is a lesbian and C-3PO is gay.
Do we actually have the clip on this, 146?
Yeah, play it.
I would say arguably the gayest Star Wars, I think, by a considerable margin.
and Are you excited about that?
Are you bracing yourself?
It's pretty gay, let's be honest.
Leslie, how do you feel?
Am I gay?
Yes.
No, I know you are gay, but I'm asking are you excited about putting this, you know, this is going to be a talking point.
Is it going to be a talking point?
I'm sure some... Because nerds are gay.
Yeah!
Well, some nerds are very not gay and are very threatened by gay stuff.
Well, that's true, but in my world, nerds are gay.
Okay.
Was this the fun element of it?
No!
I don't think so, and yet people have told me that it's the gayest Star Wars, and I frankly You're offended?
Into it.
I think that Star Wars is so gay already.
Okay.
I mean, have you seen the fits?
We'd be like, look how gay this is, and then send each other a reference photo.
And are you telling me, with a straight face, that C-3PO is straight?
They're a couple.
That's what I think.
But, this is more outward.
I think it's canon that R2-D2 is a lesbian.
Oh, interesting.
So yeah, those are robots, by the way.
They're not, you know, gendered in any way.
They're actually androids.
I'll put it this way.
So, let's ask around.
Do you guys still watch Star Wars at all?
Blake, we know you don't because you're following the Greer Head Challenge.
Andrew?
I do not watch it.
I grew up, I think I was fed the line so many times that Star Wars was amazing as a kid that I grew up just assuming that it was and so when I'd watch the originals I thought they were amazing and then I watched them years later and I was like these are not Exactly amazing, in my opinion.
So I actually don't even, I mean, sorry if I'm upsetting the chat here, but I never, yeah, when I watched it later in life, I did not find it amazing.
Well, Andrew, what you don't appreciate, the vision that George Lucas was able to bring to the new trilogy in which he channeled the...
Is this is this the what is this are you just doing like the neckbeard?
So that's actually Blake's point the reason he's doing that is because that's you know Star Wars used to be a great what they called four quadrant Franchise because they were making Star Wars like for everybody Andrew you're a Hollywood guy, so, you know recovering Hollywood guy So, you know what that means I do but now they only make the Star Wars films for the people that Blake is parodying right now.
I And apparently gay people, because I'm sitting there watching that thinking that if I'm running PR in those press junkets, I'm losing it, because it's a Disney-owned property.
Disney has already basically publicly said they're pulling back I don't know if this is one of them.
A lot of their gay programming and content was already in the pipeline and they said it was hurting their bottom line.
They're going to drop back.
build the sets, all of those things take a long time.
So a lot of their gay, I don't know if this is one of them, a lot of their gay programming and content was already in the pipeline.
And they said it was hurting their bottom line.
They're going to drop back.
They're going to pull back.
And then you've got these two, you know, I mean, really not smart women, just an absolutely need to get out of their own bubble, talking about how gay it is and how wonderfully gay it is and everything's gay.
And they're really proud of how into it they are Like, this is a brand killer.
Uh, for a ton of Star Wars fans.
I have to believe.
And if it's not a brand killer, if there's still enough vested sort of love for the Star Wars brand, this is gonna, like, nobody, none of those people are gonna watch this show.
I guess you could maybe... Go ahead, Jag.
No, no, no.
We mentioned it, but why don't you tell us, what is a Four Quadrant franchise?
What is a Four Quadrant movie?
Yeah, a four quadrant movie is basically, it appeals to the widest possible audience, right?
So it's like kids, adults, parents, singles.
I forget exactly which four quadrants are, but I know it's like kids and adults are two of the quadrants.
Men and women.
Is that what it is?
Yeah, it's it's it's like, it's I think it's it's male kids, female kids, male adults, female, female adults is the classic.
I'm sure there's a bunch of different ones.
But it's your point.
That's what it means.
It's like, yeah.
And we all know that there's like, there's chick flicks like that.
That's a movie that appeals to chicks.
There's movies that there's obviously lots of movies, ones that do very well, that are for children.
My kids saw the new Garfield, they thought that was fine.
I, you know, I didn't think there was anything Questionable in that we've also seen Disney which also owns Star Wars run into a lot of trouble by mixing a lot of this same type of content into their kids shows or in films like this one they did about Buzz Lightyear where they had like some kind of gay kiss in it and it was a complete and utter failure and so I think the one reason that Star Wars got so big and is referred to as the really the first blockbuster is because it was kind of the first
film that was a four quadrant movie in many ways and really one of the first ones that what became the summer blockbuster it was the original summer blockbuster made obviously all the money when it came out and kind of in many ways every movie that's come out since then is is kind of like just repeating the star wars formula so my thought crime take on this one what i would say is as you say so i watched the original movies when i was
Most kids my age like that stuff.
But when Disney bought it, I kind of knew, okay, this is probably not going to be great.
And then Episode 7 came out, I watched it, I didn't even hate it that much.
But I could like, I could zoom out.
That was the first one where Harrison Ford came back.
The first Disney one.
Yeah, the first Disney movie.
And so, and I saw it.
It wasn't the worst thing in the world, but I could tell that it's not going to get better from here.
Yeah.
And eventually, I was like, I think I told people, eventually they're going to beat this into the ground and they're going to do this, talking to other people, they're going to do this until you all hate it.
Yeah.
And I'm just going to check out now.
And so I didn't see, I haven't seen any of the other Disney ones.
I like Solo.
I did see episode 9 because I was told it was one of the worst movies ever made and it would be funny to watch.
I watched it and it was substantially worse than I was anticipating.
It was truly execrable.
Well, to be fair, George Lucas was ruining the franchise before he sold it to Jar Jar Binks.
Which one is 9?
9 is... 9 is where somehow Palpatine returned and... The last Disney one's 9, yeah.
Yeah, well, I think, have they done any other spin-off?
I don't know.
Yeah, they did Solo, they've done a bunch of shows, like on Disney+, they have a bunch of shows, they have animated shows, they have a kids, like, Jedi kids.
So the reason I say that is, I think I've gone through, like, the meltdown of, like, oh, Disney has irredeemably ruined Star Wars for Episode 8, Episode 9, Solo, this show, I think one or two people complained about, like, the Obi-Wan show.
I actually will defend Solo.
I think people crapped on it because the... What was the one that came out before it?
Rogue One?
No.
No, no, no.
Last Jedi.
Last Jedi was the one that came out just before it, was the Rian Johnson one, which was just horrible, ruins Luke Skywalker, etc, etc.
And then people had this bad taste in their mouth, so they took it out on Solo.
But if you actually sit and watch that movie, it's just kind of a fun... It's almost like a buddy cop movie.
I thought Solo was great.
Solo's the only one of anything from...
It's the only one.
Yeah.
But here...
Go ahead.
Just to finish the thought is I've kind of been through people freaking out about Disney Star Wars five or six times at this point.
Or they get mad like the new video game is bad or they make a book that has some to it because there's a whole vomit of Star Wars stuff that's always coming out.
And I guess what I'm frustrated with is there's like a cottage industry of people who just complain about new Star Wars or new other stuff.
And I'm a little frustrated that people just don't have the ability to say, I am going to not watch this and I am going to not care about it.
It's true.
They still watch it.
It was obvious six years ago that Star Wars was now bad.
But Mandalorian, actually, now that I'm thinking of it, Mandalorian, before I got rid of our Disney subscription, I liked that.
I watched like two episodes of Mandalorian and I checked out.
I was like, this is dumb.
None of you are without sin.
I liked it.
Here's the thing.
Star Wars, to your point, as soon as it got bought by Disney, was going to become more like kitschy and a little more cringe, right?
They could have gone in a darker, Kind of direction, I think, that would have appealed to some of the kids that grew up with it more, who were older and adults.
I think they just basically said, we're gonna make these, like, kiddie movies at this point.
Which is all the more reason why, you know, them inserting their gay agenda, their not-too-secret gay agenda, into all these films is really appalling.
Everything is all fan service now.
That's probably the big issue.
It's like, they did this in the prequels.
It's like, oh, you like Boba Fett?
We're gonna give you a whole army of Boba Fetts.
Oh, you like Mandalorians?
We're gonna give you a whole army.
We're just gonna give you more of junk that you like.
Are you actually going to try to write something good?
And they're not.
They're just not.
And so I guess my thought crime on all of this is that, so number one, obviously what you're talking about is the rest of development, people who are in like their 30s, their 40s, who are watching this stuff.
And it's a huge problem in millennials.
And we're actually, we're all millennials here or like elder millennials, whatever you call it, Gen Y, by the way, which is slightly different than like your core millennial.
But in Gen Y, I've noticed a ton.
You will see, and you talk about me being on the East Coast.
I see it on the West Coast too, though.
Gen Y has got Star Wars stickers on like everything.
They are obsessed with Star Wars.
It's disgusting.
You can find threads on Reddit where people are like, how do I make sure my children grow up to be Star Wars fans?
I just saw that!
What do I do if my children leave the church of Star Wars and join a different religion?
It's a problem with men.
Men are obsessed with Star Wars in their adult years, and they are totally committed to Star Wars.
And so something that I've done as a, you know, call this a thought crime.
I tweet this every once in a while, and I get so much hate for it when I do, is that we don't have anything Star Wars in our house.
Star Wars is not welcome in the posto household.
I'm not raising my kids.
To have anything to do with Star Wars.
This is like one of the one franchises I do this with where we just like no toys, no clothes.
They've never seen any of the movies and quite frankly like I'm just not even interested in letting them see any of them.
I think we have, like, a baby Yoda somewhere in our house.
But I was never obsessed with Star Wars, so I never even cared.
Like, I don't even see it as, like, a threat.
And maybe I should be a little more alert.
I don't even care, he said, as he went to Solo.
I like Solo.
I like Solo.
I mean, listen, there's only so much...
Yeah, Solo was good.
The movie that revealed that... Nice white American lead, right?
Not that I would notice, other than the fact that every other single movie of the Jedi, or like from Jedis or whatever, everything since, I don't know, the last 15 years, they've very distinctly not done a white American lead.
A white American male And by the way, with like some swagger, with like some testosterone to him as the lead, that was the only one was solo.
And it's kind of interesting how that's the one that's been sort of like written out of, you know, the story.
Yeah, I find it noticeable.
Because it gets mentioned in the chat, someone brought up Harry Potter.
Do we have to be like pro-Harry Potter now because J.K.
Rowling is based?
No, absolutely not.
She's not based.
She's good on the gender stuff.
She's like an enemy of the state on the gender stuff.
I've just never been into it.
It's something that like...
You know, and this is a big difference between Gen Y and Millennials.
One of the many reasons that I say that Gen Y and Millennials are separate, because Millennials LOVE Harry Potter, and I was already aged out of, like, the kiddie stuff when that first started coming around.
And so I just, I never, but you will find these gen wires, uh, like Nina Yankovich and others.
I was going to say, this is Jack's thing.
Completely are obsessed with Harry Potter.
So Nina Yankovich, who was going to be, before I got her fired, um, who had been hired as the head of the disinformation governance board at the Department of Homeland Security Got her quote-unquote renown and fame by being the lead singer of a Harry Potter tribute band called the Moaning Myrtles and this was something where now by the way, she brought this up recently in congressional testimony
Complaining about me to Congress and whining about me to the Weaponization Committee when they brought her in.
And she's like, I can't believe you brought that up.
That's something I did when I was a teenager, blah, blah, blah, years ago.
However, comma, I looked this up and she was doing this until into her 20s.
And she's got videos up on YouTube in her 20s when she was doing moaning Myrtle's videos.
And yeah, apparently Myrtle's like a character in there.
I don't know.
And by the way, we also know that she was doing videos on TikTok where she was talking about like supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and turning that into, you know, musical renditions of why we should censor people we don't like on the internet.
So Nini Yankovic, by the way, I'll even say it out there, not the worst singer in the world.
Nina, perhaps you should go back to your original calling and stay out of, I don't know, government or trying to run or do anything in the real world.
I basically guarantee that Jack Posoba could have a police lineup of just like six random women.
And you would be able to pick out like all similar ages, similar looks.
You would be able to look a a Harry Potter girl in the eye and pick her out of a crowd.
I have.
So I did this recently.
I did this.
I did this like a year ago.
And do you remember who it was?
It was the head of we did it on the show, actually.
It was the head of the The Donald Trump Grand Jury down in Georgia.
Do you remember this girl?
She was like a witch.
But we saw her and we were like, that's clearly a Harry Potter girl.
Just from her mannerisms, just from her look, just the way she carried herself, the way she talked.
I said, that's a Harry Potter girl.
We looked it up.
House Slytherin.
Like on our Twitter account or something?
We found her Twitter, we found her Reddit, we found her Instagram.
It was like a cult and Harry Potter everywhere.
Alright, hold on.
I got her image.
It's worth bringing her back up.
I think we'll remember this lady.
Oh, we have Nina singing.
Do we want to play Nina Yankovic singing 159?
Information laundering is really quite ferocious It's when a huckster takes some lies and makes them sound precocious By saying them in Congress or a mainstream outlet so Disinformation's origins are slightly less atrocious It's how you hide a little hide a little lie.
When Rudy Giuliani shared that intel from Ukraine.
Or when TikTok influencers say Covid can cause pain.
They're laundering disinfo and we really should take note.
And not support their lies with our wallet, voice or vote.
By the way, she's lying about the Hunter Biden laptop.
Right.
Yeah.
That's a pretty good rhyme.
It was nifty rhyme.
She's a good singer.
I think Nina, I think there's a place for everyone in the world.
And yours is clearly doing some kind of singing.
You know, go join a group, go do something like that.
Don't try to do anything that involves like using your head or thinking or anything that's below, you know, kind of above like a 115, maybe even a 110 IQ.
You know, that's fine.
That's much more your speed.
You're gonna be happier and so will everyone else You know, think about it, though.
And Blake, you and I have talked about this before.
It's theater kids.
We've got theater kids running the government.
We've got theater kids all over the place.
Go look.
So we've got Nnedi Yankovic.
You've got Jen Psaki.
By the way, there's no question to me that Jen Psaki is like a Harry Potter obsessive.
There's no question.
She's got the same mannerisms.
She's cleaned up.
She's much more cleaned up than this girl down in Georgia.
Emily Kors.
Yeah, throw up the image, by the way, of the witch from George's.
160 and then 161.
There she is.
The George's four person.
You can just see it.
Oh, there it is.
You can.
You can pick them out of a lineup.
Jack, I think we should do this, okay?
I actually think we should do this.
We should do like a street test and put like five or six millennial, you're saying Gen Y, which are born between, what year would Gen Y be born?
So Gen Y is typically you're born in the 80s and then I would start millennial as like 90.
It's not hard and fast, but basically it's like you're born in the 80s and so you were the last generation to understand the world before connectivity and the internet.
So you're saying millennial women were the Harry Potter women, not the Gen Y women?
Okay, so get a bunch of millennial women, line them up on a wall, have them all look you right in the eye.
Line them up against the wall?
Well, it doesn't have to be a wall, but like, there's nothing weird happening here other than the fact that they have to look you in the eye and like smile.
Yes, yes.
It could be a stage.
And I bet Jack could pick the one Harry Potter superfan you would pick.
I actually have every faith in you.
I can test this all day long.
All day, every day.
There's no question.
I don't know how to explain it.
I don't know what it is, but you can always tell with the mannerisms.
By the way, just the still images.
Just the still images alone is all you need.
Just give me a six pack.
Just give me six mug shots and I'll pick them out.
Every time.
So this, Wall Street Silver, if you want to put up 158, he had a tweet that went viral.
He said, the Acolyte, this is this new Star Wars series summary, the main character has two mothers.
The main character has two mothers.
This is on Disney Plus, by the way.
Two, all of the main Jedi characters are black or Asian, zero white men.
It's predictable, not shocking.
Number three, in the first episode, the only speaking role for a white character was for prisoners.
So it's not even just like a gay Star Wars.
It's just like all the D-E-I-C-R-T systemic racism in one... But this is just what I mean.
Okay, Wall Street Silver, this is one of those bro Reddit things that buys GameStop stock.
And okay, I get that the acolyte is bad, but...
Stop watching Star Wars!
Stop caring about Star Wars!
I didn't even know there was a new Star Wars series until this week.
Well, this is the only reason we know about it, so is their trick working on us?
Are we just all duped and playing into their hands?
You should care about a new Disney Star Wars series the amount you care about, like, what's the top show on Chinese television?
I don't know.
Right.
Is it sci-fi?
Is it romance?
I don't know.
But you have to admit, typically it's denunciations of Xi Jinping's political opponents.
Right.
But the point is, Star Wars is a thing.
It's a cultural phenomenon.
You can't compare it to the top show on Chinese TV or whatever.
It's such a big franchise.
But it's because we care.
It's because people like us on our side choose to care.
That's what keeps Disney making them.
I'm fine to say that I won't watch anymore Star Wars.
I disagree to an extent.
So, you know, Star Wars is one of those things that, you know, had massive cultural valence and was just something that was kind of beloved by a lot of people, obviously, growing up.
As you say, in our generation, this was something that everybody liked.
Yeah, it's also something that a lot of people grew out of, and that's also cool, too.
But taking something that had so much cultural resonance with a, you know, with a group of people and then turning it into Just turning it into this mystery meat mush of LGBT nonsense is number one.
It's ridiculous from a business standpoint and a financial standpoint to take one of the most successful franchises on the face of the planet and completely run it into the ground.
But number two, it also goes to show you that the group of people who I call the unhumans that have taken over it are actually doing these things on purpose.
They're doing it out of spite.
They're doing it out of hatred.
They're doing it because they want to take things that are good.
They want to take things that are loved, that are cultural icons, and destroy this.
You see this with every revolutionary movement that's ever been concocted in history.
They see things that are culturally irrelevant, and they want to destroy it.
So I don't see any difference between that to the destruction of the Confederate statues, to the destruction and the attacks on the American flag.
Again, it's just something that's part of our cultural tapestry that they are trying to pervert, destroy, and eventually purge.
Well, I feel inspired to throw this image up.
You know, since we're talking about fantasy and fiction, we have an image of the new Miss Maryland as well.
If we can throw that up.
Gonna wait for it.
Kylie will throw it up when we get a second.
So the image is that the new Miss Maryland is trans.
The new Miss Maryland is a mister.
And the really crazy part about this, and I'm trying to actually find the picture because I saw one earlier that was a little bit smaller, is not just, so there you go.
There it is.
So wait, I always forget the way you're supposed to say it.
Who has a husband?
But what is the way you're supposed to say it?
Are you supposed to say trans man or trans woman?
Every time I see Riley Gaines, I go, can you just tell me what do I say?
And I still can't remember.
She's taught me like four times.
She gets like mad if you do it the wrong way.
The rule is always what you say is what they claim to be.
So trans woman means they are a man.
Got it.
Isn't it?
It's like not really, uh...
Like, trans man would be like, not really a man.
Yeah, that's a good way of putting it.
Trans equals not really.
Not really a man.
So trans man is not really a man.
Anyways, the reason I think this is, why I wanted to throw this image up here is, Jack, to your point, it's like, this is the new Miss Maryland.
They take institutions, they crap on them, they contort them, and ruin them.
And that's just kind of, it's like the locusts going through your favorite cultural institution.
Star Wars is one.
And I think that's why it matters, actually.
We could debate whether Star Wars should be so beloved, but the fact is, it is.
Right?
And so, when they do this... It's an illustration, of course it is.
Yeah, like, so when you do this to, you know, Miss America, and you do this to Star Wars, you do it to, you know, the universities, and you do it, like, at some point you just kind of... Well, I found it.
I found the husband picture.
Ah.
Go ahead, go ahead.
No way.
Oh, it's like a real husband.
Good lord.
Wait, that's a black pill.
That is a black pill.
Huge black pill.
Oh my gosh, throw that, you guys have to throw that up.
What?
That's the husband.
So he's like a, what is he in the Navy?
Hey, there's a village people song about that.
Is that Air Force?
No, Marine.
That's a Marine.
Thanks, Jack.
Good lord.
So wait, that's like a red-blooded lookin' marine dude, square jawed, high and tight.
Does he know?
He's gotta know!
Well, you know the stereotype with marines sometimes.
I don't know the stereotype.
They were the last branch to require literacy, so you get some... Well, I mean, golly.
That's shocking.
Jack, what's your initial reaction?
Put that image back up there, please.
Man.
So he married, knowingly, we think, a dude.
So is he gay?
Does that make him gay?
Do we know if she's... he, sorry.
Do we know if he, the trans woman, not really a woman... There's a ceremony picture.
I'm on the Instagram now.
Oh my gosh.
This is very... I don't know how to... Wait, what's the ceremony?
What if he was like, uh, what if he was like, you know, practicing Christian and was like, I'm saving myself for our wedding night and I want it to be special.
He's got kind of a funky eyes on wedding night.
That, that is like, if you zoom in on his face, it is kind of a, it is a funny face.
You know, you're starting to get me with the whole really weird.
That's a really, I mean, that's a really weird image.
Alright, here, throw this one up.
We got a little zoomed up version of it for the audience.
Man, what do you tell your parents?
I don't know.
I mean, let's, maybe he's a well-intentioned nice guy, but of all the fish in the sea, bro, like, I mean, unless he's gay, and this is sort of like Are we going to have to dig out the Andrew Tate clip?
Or is it more gay to Hulk Hogan, but it's a woman?
Or Megan Fox, but it's a dude?
This is a weird would you rather.
Jack, do we have the definitive Reddit thread, 4chan?
What's the consensus here of what is more?
So here's my whole thing.
So the famous internet question on this is, are traps gay?
And so this is the biggest one in the world, are traps gay?
And so, yes or no.
I don't actually think it's necessarily a yes or no question, I think it becomes gay when you find out.
This is a real story.
So I was much younger.
Went out, we're having a drink.
Where is this going?
I was with my now wife.
We were dating.
So it's not a story about me, but my best buddy at the time had just gone through a breakup and we were out and he saw somebody from across the room Literally turns to me and goes, that is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, I'm gonna go talk to her.
Turns out, it was not a she, it was a he, and this person was Canadian, and his, the trans woman, not really a woman, had a boyfriend.
And it, like, spun all of our heads.
First, because, like, my buddy was convinced that was a female.
And this trans woman had a—actually, I think they were engaged.
It was like, there's my fiancé.
And it was like a normal-looking dude.
And I—my head exploded.
And didn't find out because he approached and was like, hey, can I buy you a beer?
Yeah, he was like, actually, I'm taken.
he did approach him trying to spark a conversation and then this was like I guess they talked for five minutes and this came out of it he came over like his face was as wide as a sheet and he was like you will not believe what just happened and we still talk about it to this day He told you that?
I'd take that one to my grave if that happened to me.
No, I mean it was like... He was actually like shaken up by it.
I think by the fact that he found this person attractive from across the... I don't know.
I don't know what to make of that.
Like he... To Jack's point, once he found out, I think any attraction that he was feeling was like gone.
Fair enough.
That's a relief.
But...
I saw a woman with two heads in a bar once.
Yeah, so that's a trap.
That's a classic trap.
And yeah, I think once you find out, if you continue beyond that or if you still have any feelings beyond that, that becomes a game.
You know what this reminds me of is when the topless tranny at the White House flashed the White House or whatever.
And it wasn't like, it was like Clay and Buck or something.
They were talking about, I think Jesse Kelly said the same thing.
They're like, it's not a bad looking trans woman or whatever.
And I remember being like shocked that they would say that.
They were talking specifically about the assets, I believe.
Oh, were they talking about the, okay.
They were talking about the job or whatever.
I'm like, I'm sorry, I'm not into it.
Just not at all.
There was something like that.
It's weird.
Like, that's that's Gen X humor, by the way.
If that is a joke where it's like, oh, yeah, no, this is good.
Like, I'm accepting.
I'm cool.
And that's that's that's a key difference between Gen X and Gen Y. Gen Y is like, no, I'm not into that.
Not into that at all.
Well, I feel like we've successfully gone through some thought crimes here.
So that's a mission accomplished.
By the way, since we're sharing friend stories, my craziest friend story is that, um, uh, my is okay.
So we knew a guy who was adopted and long story short, he thought he was dating an older woman.
And when he brought that woman to her, to meet his parents, he's like, oh, this is my older girlfriend.
They were like, this is your natural mother.
No.
This is your birth mom.
No.
Dated his mom.
Yeah.
No.
Nice.
Yeah.
And so and so she did.
Oh, wait, they didn't know about it.
No, they didn't know.
Did the mom?
The mom didn't know either.
Total Oedipal.
No, the mom didn't know because, you know, she'd say she had stayed in the area.
Was your friends named Ed?
Uh, no, it's not even dead.
Yeah, Oedipal.
And so, yeah, it's like this crazy thing, I think.
She had been like a teen pregnancy kind of thing, and yeah.
So it was maybe like a 15 year difference or 16 year difference, something like that.
Exactly.
So like 20 to 35 kind of thing.
Did they both just start throwing up?
I mean, what happens in the moments after the revelation?
Do you know how the story finishes?
Well, I mean, so they they obviously ended the romantic part of the relationship and then tried.
Is that obvious, Jack?
Is it obvious?
Yeah.
And then, you know, they tried to, you know, bring up bring up a regular.
How do you put that genie back in the bottle?
Like, I mean.
That being said, though, that being said, though, we never let him live that one down ever, ever.
So are you still friends with this person?
Can we have another show?
I want to do like a full hour-long in-depth podcast with Charlie.
I could probably hit up some buddies who know him.
I'm sure that he would absolutely not want to talk about this publicly.
I would, as his publicist, advise him not to talk about it.
What if we offered him money?
Yeah, I would offer him money for that.
Maybe we could have them on like anonymously or something.
Hollywood would eat this up.
This is right up their fetishist alley.
It's literally like the third oldest story we have.
Yeah, but like still widely frowned upon.
Yeah, but you know a lot of things that used to be frowned on are okay now.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's true.
It's very true.
Do we want to keep going or are we done here?
Oh, I don't think we can do anything.
Let's shout out the fans.
Somebody was asking, maybe a couple of comments real quick.
Yeah, let's hit the comments.
Someone was asking, Portland HoldTheLine says, Jack, would you consider being White House Press Secretary?
I realize Jack is knee-deep or elbow-deep in gay, homo, cross-dresser, LARPing pictures, but could you answer my question, Jack bro?
Yes, but only if I am able to talk about stuff like this from the press briefing room.
Oh my gosh, Magakitten Ultra says, some of my guy friends have told me that as long as they transitioned early, they'd still do it.
LMAO.
Ewww.
Nope.
Nope.
See, that right there is a perfect example, by the way, of the fact that people will That when you have this stuff pervading your culture, you start to get acceptance of it and people start to say, Oh, well, I know I'm supposed to be accepting.
I know I'm supposed to be tolerant.
So yeah, yeah, I would do it.
And then you actually start to trick yourself into thinking that that's okay.
This has been something that's studied.
It's been something that I should say that they don't like having studied.
But there's no question that people's attitudes on this are extremely malleable.
There's parts of the world, by the way, where it's completely unaccepted.
And somebody who said something like that would probably be sent to like a mental institution.
But this is a social contagion.
This is why you have incels that evolve into these types of things many, many times.
Yeah, and by the way, that is like a weird deal.
I don't even know if this is relevant, or maybe it's another thought crime, but like the castrati in Italy that were castrated at a very young age to keep their singing voice intact, like, there is fundamental transformations that happen that you can stop, obviously we know this through drugs and that sort of thing now, that will You know, basically transformed by lack of transformation.
It will forever alter the development of a young boy or something.
I don't know if that's relevant, but it is something I've often thought about.
We have one recording, I think, still from The Last Living Castrati that they ever did, that we know of at least.
They still have the recording, and it sounds like a woman singing.
Are we mentioning that because you have to do that if you're going to be the White House Press Secretary?
Yeah, Jack.
You'd have to permanently take care of that.
Excellent.
It'll be done.
Anyways, okay.
Any other comments here?
Oh, by the way, we haven't... By the way, we've been kind of remiss that we have a huge event coming up next week, and I don't even think we've mentioned it once here.
But we have the Peoplex Convention, where, by the way, Steve Bannon will be appearing.
So go to tpaction.com or .org.
TPAction.com forward slash peoples.
Yeah, TPAction.com forward slash peoples.
So President Trump will be in attendance.
Steve Bannon will be in attendance.
Everyone's favorites are going to be there.
You must come to this thing now more than ever.
This probably will be Steve Bannon's, if unless anything changes, it will be Steve Bannon's last Public appearance, last public speech.
We're doing a book launch event there for my book, On Humans.
If you want to come by, check that out.
We've got a ton of pre-orders and really excited about that.
The actual book doesn't even drop yet, so if you want to get it, you can get it a couple of weeks early at People's.
We were able to work that all out, but, you know, huge day for Turning Point Action.
We're just getting started.
And of course, by the way, our esteemed co-host Tyler will be in attendance.
Tyler is also someone who's been putting together In attendance, I should say, virtually or in person.
We'll see about that.
But a huge shout out to him, by the way, for putting together Turning Point Action and putting together Turning Point Action's arm and these events because we wouldn't have been able to do any of this without Tyler, who's someone we stand with and support completely.
Yeah, Tyler, for people who don't know, I mean he comes on the show and we don't really give him proper due sometimes, but Tyler, along with Charlie, but you know Charlie has a thousand other jobs, he's the guy that has to go speak, he's the guy that has to go sort of fundraise and all these things, but so Tyler as COO of TPUSA was one of the, probably the key architect of the field program that is now sort of the envy of the conservative world.
We have thirty-five 3500 college and high school chapters or presence on those campuses.
Hundreds of thousands of students involved.
And then he sort of took that and is now building out a national sort of field ballot chase program.
So he's using some of those same tricks and tips that he learned along the way there, building out our ballot chase in Arizona, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
So hat tip to Tyler.
He'll be back soon.
Back very, very soon.
Yeah, people need to check that out.
Alright, we don't have any more comments.
I think that's about it for tonight.
Blake, people can't follow you, but if they want to see you, of course you can watch it on The Charlie Kirk Show.
Andrew, are we plugging your socials or what, man?
Andrew Kaysay.
Listen, if I get 500 new followers tonight, I'll start actively tweeting again.
There it is.
That's the challenge.
Andrew K. Say.
Jack, and you don't get to just, like, retweet something random of mine and give me 500 new followers.
