=== Welcome to the Show (08:34) ===

[00:00:01]  It's worse in Melbourne, in Australia, by the way.
[00:00:05]  A pregnant woman was arrested, handcuffed by the police for saying that she wanted to demonstrate against the lockdown in Victoria.
[00:00:21]  I believe it's Victoria-wide.
[00:00:23]  I don't think it's just Melbourne.
[00:00:25]  I was just on a Zoom conference.
[00:00:28]  I gave a Zoom speech, as it were, to Melbourne, and the rabbi that I was in dialogue with there was telling me how draconian the laws are.
[00:00:44]  I may have him on.
[00:00:47]  The English-speaking world has truly flipped out in almost every arena.
[00:00:54]  Well, welcome to the show.
[00:00:57]  This is the time when you have to fight back.
[00:01:02]  One way to fight back is not to fly American Airlines.
[00:01:05]  I hate calling for boycotts.
[00:01:08]  My whole life I have been proud of the fact that I never boycotted even Ben and Jerry's, two morons, on the left.
[00:01:21]  But it's now, there's no choice.
[00:01:25]  American Airlines has announced that its flight attendants and others can wear BLM pins.
[00:01:35]  That makes for a charming experience to have a fascist organization represented by employees of American Airlines.
[00:01:44]  Just fly something else and tell them why.
[00:01:46]  I feel like burning my...
[00:01:49]  Let's see, I have it on...
[00:01:50]  No, I don't have it on me.
[00:01:51]  I'm on one of the highest levels of American, but they've lost me.
[00:01:59]  This is what I mean by you have to fight and you have to send them a letter.
[00:02:02]  Very polite.
[00:02:04]  Say something to the effect, it is a despicable organization.
[00:02:10]  It does not represent blacks.
[00:02:12]  You know they don't represent blacks.
[00:02:14]  You listen to your diversity...
[00:02:16]  Well, not a dean.
[00:02:22]  Commissioner of diversity at American, and you're cowards.
[00:02:27]  That's just what we need in our time, is to politicize your flight.
[00:02:33]  It's not enough to politicize basketball and football.
[00:02:36]  Now your flight has to be poisoned with it.
[00:02:42]  Can a, I don't know, can an employee wear a Trump pin?
[00:02:48]  Thank you.
[00:02:50]  And I don't want them to wear one.
[00:02:51]  That's the thing.
[00:02:52]  I'm passionately for the re-election of this president.
[00:02:56]  But I don't want flight attendants wearing Trump pins.
[00:03:01]  There's no escape.
[00:03:03]  Remember, the left is totalitarian.
[00:03:05]  I've said it all my life.
[00:03:07]  Most people think that I've engaged in hyperbole.
[00:03:10]  Maybe now you realize that is literally accurate.
[00:03:12]  All leftists are totalitarian.
[00:03:16]  Liberals are not.
[00:03:17]  Conservatives are not.
[00:03:18]  Leftists are.
[00:03:19]  Total.
[00:03:20]  Our control must be total.
[00:03:23]  You cannot escape leftism.
[00:03:28]  Not even on an American Airlines flight, that little bubble in the air.
[00:03:34]  But why don't they just rename it Left Wing Airlines?
[00:03:39]  You are not welcome if you consider police lives valuable.
[00:03:44]  You are not welcome if you know that BLM... It's a despicable, fascist group.
[00:03:53]  Why can't people say that?
[00:03:55]  It's so obvious.
[00:03:56]  Do you see what they do in almost every city?
[00:03:59]  Now Rochester and Pittsburgh.
[00:04:03]  The other one was Washington, D.C. They scream and curse people, white people, who are having dinner because they're white and they're not a racist organization.
[00:04:15]  It's the most racist organization in the country outside of the Ku Klux Klan.
[00:04:23]  It's just beyond belief that the fact that there are many whites in it doesn't make it not racist.
[00:04:31]  The sick people who join it.
[00:04:34]  The angry sick people.
[00:04:40]  Don't fly American Airlines.
[00:04:45]  It's easy to avoid it unless you are in a hub and it's the only airline that services your city.
[00:04:53]  If we don't fight back, and it's a little inconvenient, so you'll have to reroute your route.
[00:05:00]  There's now refunding on tickets.
[00:05:02]  Just give it up.
[00:05:03]  You don't pay a penalty.
[00:05:05]  At least you don't on United.
[00:05:06]  I suspect it's now true for all the airlines.
[00:05:14]  What am I flying today?
[00:05:15]  I'm flying United, I believe.
[00:05:20]  United and Delta need to see the reaction against American for making your trip crappy, tension-filled.
[00:05:30]  That's all it is.
[00:05:33]  And they do it.
[00:05:34]  Oh, I've got to read to you, I mean, their message.
[00:05:35]  Oh, my God, the Orwellianism.
[00:05:42]  American Airlines, here we go.
[00:05:46]  Crews will be allowed to wear Black Lives Matter pins on their uniforms while on duty, the company announced Sunday.
[00:05:54]  In addition, the company is also working to design its own pin that will show its symbolic support of a diverse and inclusive work environment.
[00:06:04]  That's what we need, folks.
[00:06:06]  More politicization of American life.
[00:06:12]  God, there was a time not long ago, not long ago in America, you could watch a sporting event with no tension of political tension.
[00:06:26]  Go to school with no political tension.
[00:06:30]  You could go on an airplane with no political tension, but the left has screwed it all, and I wish I could use the real word for screwed.
[00:06:42]  Breitbart continues, clearly we live in a time where it is so important to have a dialogue.
[00:06:48]  Oh yeah, no, this is not Breitbart.
[00:06:50]  This is the company's message.
[00:06:52]  Clearly we live in a time where it is so important to have a dialogue about this important issue of racism in our country and try to find common ground.
[00:07:03]  American is truly committed to having an inclusive culture that is welcoming to all and a reflection.
[00:07:11]  Of our country and world.
[00:07:13]  What does that mean?
[00:07:13]  It means nothing, you realize.
[00:07:15]  Welcoming to all?
[00:07:16]  I am not welcome.
[00:07:17]  Do you not understand?
[00:07:18]  Half of America has utter moral contempt for the Black Lives Matter movement.
[00:07:25]  We completely support the concept of Black Lives Matter.
[00:07:30]  But it's like saying, because I'm anti-communist, I'm anti-worker.
[00:07:35]  I will not fall into that trap.
[00:07:40]  BLM uses blacks, just like the Communist Party used workers.
[00:07:48]  This is why American is so committed to creating a more tolerant and diverse team.
[00:07:53]  Really?
[00:07:53]  It's been intolerant thus far American?
[00:07:56]  Is that right?
[00:07:57]  How exactly?
[00:08:01]  Through our partnership with American's Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
[00:08:06]  These are the people who run corporations now.
[00:08:11]  Because cowards run big business.
[00:08:15]  America is being destroyed by big business more than by government.
[00:08:19]  This is unique in history.
[00:08:23]  When you think of Nike, when you think of Amazon, and all of them, I mean, it's just the foundations, the private foundations.
