Donald Trump put out a post on Truth Social where he said, Pam Bondi, it's time to arrest these Democrats. | ||
And it said Pam Bondi Colon, then whatever the message, I'll read the full thing. | ||
But many people said, Hey, whoa, wait a minute. | ||
Did Trump mean to DM Pam Bondi in order to go and arrest Democrats? | ||
But he accidentally published it. | ||
Oh, come on, of course, it was meant to be public. | ||
I don't even know if you have DMs on Truth Social, do you? | ||
Well, at any rate, the media is losing their mind. | ||
Why? | ||
Because they're Democrat aligned with the Independent saying, imagine if Richard Nixon I'm sorry, quoting Hillary Clinton who said, Imagine if Richard Nixon had just tweeted out the Watergate scandal rather than putting it in a secret tapes. | ||
No. | ||
This was a shot across the bow at Democrats. | ||
Trump was saying, my AG already knows to do this. | ||
This message is intended for you that we are coming. | ||
And this message is basically saying it's time to go and arrest these Democrats who broke the law and did untoward things. | ||
Now on the right, everyone's saying, finally, we've been waiting for this forever. | ||
We know that these people were doing illegal things and trying to burn this country to the ground. | ||
So when's it gonna happen? | ||
Where are the arrests? | ||
The funny thing is, last week, with the dramatic escalation in tensions in this country, not just the Charlie Kirk assassination, but the moves made by the Trump administration, I said, at this pace, we're going to see arrests by next week. | ||
And then these attorneys indicted a former Oakland mayor. | ||
And I was like, whoa, that was over the weekend. | ||
I thought it was going to be next week. | ||
But sure enough, it seems to be happening now. | ||
And there's a big question. | ||
These libertarian types and these fake centrists are going, guys, please stop. | ||
Don't do it. | ||
What are you gonna do when the Democrats take power? | ||
If the Democrats take power again, I don't know, a break rocks. | ||
Uh the presumption is if Democrats get in power again, what will I do? | ||
How will I respond? | ||
I'll respond by, I don't know. | ||
Probably trying to lift the chains on my legs up because it's chafing and uh breaking rocks that are just big enough, but not too big because I don't want to strain myself even when they are cracking the whip. | ||
I'm kidding. | ||
I don't actually think they'll make us break rocks, but come on. | ||
They arrested Trump's lawyers. | ||
They falsely accused Trump of fraud of rape. | ||
They arrested his lawyers. | ||
Are you kidding me? | ||
If Trump doesn't do this, I'm scared what happens. | ||
Not if he does. | ||
Let's break it down. | ||
Go through the news and the reaction from the left and where this country is going. | ||

Thanks for sponsoring the show, everybody. | ||
But let's get to the news and talk about what's going on with Trump ordering the attorney general to prosecute his political enemies. | ||
We can't delay any longer. | ||
So let's uh what do what do we have here? | ||
This one's funny. | ||
Trump officials didn't know if his order to prosecute foes was meant to be secret. | ||
I love it. | ||
The president's social media posts urging Pam Bondy to promptly change charge. | ||
His political foes blindsided top officials in the administration. | ||
Let's uh let's let's let's go here first. | ||
Let me see if I can refresh this and get it to uh load properly. | ||
I think I can. | ||
I don't know why it's not loading properly. | ||
Path to dictatorship. | ||
Democrats. | ||
Democrats flame Trump over pressure on Bondi. | ||
Rolling Stone reports, President Trump surprised members of admin of his administration with his social media outburst Saturday night, demanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi quickly move ahead with efforts to prosecute his political enemies. | ||
In a truth social post directed to Pam, Trump complained that his Department of Justice has not yet prosecuted James Comey, Adam Schiff, Attorney General Letitia James, Letitia James. | ||
His demand to prosecute James came less than 24 hours after Trump forced out the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia for failing to charge James, who oversaw New York civil fraud case against the president's business empire. | ||
I think I have the post here. | ||
Here's what he said. | ||
Pam, I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that essentially, quote, same old story as last time. | ||
All talk, no action, nothing is being done. | ||
What about Comey? | ||
Adam Shift D. Shift, Letitia. | ||
They're all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done. | ||
Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. attorney in Virginia with a really bad Republican past. | ||
Awoke Rhino who was never going to do his job. | ||
That's why two of the worst Dem senders pushed him so hard. | ||
He even lied to the media and said he quit. | ||
And that we had no case. | ||
No. | ||
I fired him. | ||
And there is a great case, and many lawyers and legal pundits say so. | ||
Lindsay Halligan is a really good lawyer and likes you a lot. | ||
We can't delay any longer. | ||
It's killing our reputation and credibility. | ||
They impeached me twice and indicted me five times over nothing. | ||
Justice must be served now. | ||
President DJT. | ||
Now let's be real. | ||
Is Trump actually trying to DM her when he does that? | ||
No, of course not. | ||
Because he doesn't need to. | ||
He literally just call her on the phone or say, Pam, can you come to my office? | ||
They're all guilty as hell, he said. | ||
Many observers wonder whether Trump's initial post, which capped off a wildly authoritarian week was meant to be a private directive to Bondi. | ||
Top officials in his administration had the same question. | ||
According to three sources from familiar with the situation, several senior officials at the DOJ and also at the White House were blindsided by Trump's message on Saturday night. | ||
Some in the DOJ were left scratching their heads because the Truth Social Post directed at Pam read so much like a text message or direct direct message from the president. | ||
Is the argument, perhaps? | ||
He was trying to text her that. | ||
I don't think so, to be honest. | ||
I don't think he's not going to text that way. | ||
This reads more like a fake text, but for a public message. | ||
Because Trump would literally just say, hey Pam, I'm getting a bunch of messages from people saying why aren't we doing anything? | ||
I'd like you to move forward on this. | ||
That's all he would say. | ||
Clearly, this was meant to be a public message sent to everybody, and then make it look like it was a DM. | ||
Or make that question be asked. | ||
Now apparently he deleted this message, which is why people are like, whoa, whoa. | ||
No, he wanted to guarantee that people talked about it. | ||
Yeah, he writes like that, one Trump advisor says. | ||
It's a lot like what the president writes online. | ||
Yeah, online. | ||
Some administration officials, the sources say, determined that even though it was likely this was another instance of the president accidentally posting a private message publicly, it was best to just carry on and act like it was a written demand that was always meant for public consumption. | ||
It was. | ||
After all, the demand for prosecutions wasn't exactly out of character. | ||
Sitting in the Oval Office before cameras earlier this year, Trump took the extraordinary authoritarian steps of signing executive orders, instructing the DOJ to launch revenge-minded criminal investigations of Trump hand Trump's handpicked targets. | ||
Since we're gaining power, Trump has operated as though federal law enforcement is little more than a wholly owned subsidiary of his political project and personality cult, really. | ||
And his Justice Department has operated this way too. | ||
You know the thing about liberals is they're lying. | ||
They can't seem to remember all of the things they did against Donald Trump. | ||
They now act like uh they did nothing. | ||
They didn't censor people, arrest him, arrest his political supporters, arrest people for memes. | ||
They're saying this is the first time ever anyone would consider doing something like this. | ||
Well, they have to. | ||
If Democrats actually came out and acknowledged what they did over the past ten years, everybody would be like, yeah, Okay, they need to go to jail. | ||
So instead, they pretend like they never did anything. | ||
And this is the first time any bad thing has ever happened ever. | ||
Axios. | ||
Path to a dictatorship. | ||
Democrats flame Trump's public pressure on Bondi. | ||
The big picture. | ||
Trump Saturday Post addressed the nation's top law enforcement official urging action against his political foes, an escalation of his retribution campaign, and the already mounting MAGA world pressure on Bondy after the Epstein files fall out. | ||
Senate Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer argued on CNN State of the Union Sunday that Trump is turning the DOJ, quote, into an instrument that goes after his enemies, whether they are guilty or not, and that helps his friends. | ||
Schumer warned this is the path to a dictatorship. | ||
Senator Chris Murphy framed the current moment as one of the most dangerous the country has faced. | ||
Saying ABC's this week, we are quickly turning into a banana republic. | ||
Alluding to late night host Jimmy Kimmel's suspension following an FCC warning over comments he made. | ||
I just, I love the unrepentant evil. | ||
That is the psychotic demons. | ||
I've had to say this now probably 800 times. | ||
I'm gonna have to say it again later today. | ||
I'm going on Piers Morgan's show. | ||
Jimmy Kimmel was going to double down. | ||
The executives said that advertisers and affiliates were angry and asked him not to do it. | ||
Jimmy Kimmel was refusing to apologize and wanted to further blame MAGA. | ||
When he refused to back down, they pulled his show. | ||
The FCC comments played somewhat of a role, but not really. | ||
And then they say after, following an FCC threat, as if to imply the FCC made a phone call, threatened ABC, and Jimmy Kimmel got pulled. | ||
Never happened. | ||
Anyway, he said that Trump was employing the full power of the federal government, the FCC and the DOJ, to punish, lock up or take down all of his political enemies. | ||
Murphy said, There are two things happening. | ||
One, you're going to be prosecuted for political speech in this country, but you're also going to be going to be excused. | ||
Pointed to the clemency Trump granted the January 6th rioters. | ||
Former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton wrote on social media Sunday. | ||
Imagine if Richard Nixon had just tweeted out the Watergate scandal rather than putting it on secret tapes. | ||
That's what this is. | ||
Really? | ||
Is it? | ||
I don't care. | ||
President Trump appreciates all Attorney General Bondi is doing to make America safe again, White House Press Secretary Carolyn Levitt said in a statement provided to Axios. | ||
Her statement continued, The president wants justice and accountability for the many corrupt criminals and politicians who weaponized our justice system against him and millions of his patriotic supporters. | ||
Correct. | ||
Trump's post, which read like a private message to Bondy, named former director. | ||
We get all that part. | ||
Between the lines, the post was seemingly motivated by animus towards Eric Siebert, the U.S. attorney in Virginia, who didn't pursue a case against James. | ||
Deprived of levers of federal power, Democrats urged their Republican colleagues to push back against Trump. | ||
We need a Republican colleagues more than ever to speak out against this violation of the fundamentals of democracy. | ||
Agreed. | ||
Democrats locked up Trump, tried to put him in prison, but they arrested him. | ||
His supporters, they arrested a guy for posting memes. | ||
They got a bunch of comedians fired from their jobs. | ||
They created fake psyop smear campaigns to malign Trump as a traitor and his supporters as such as well. | ||
Oh boy, the list goes on. | ||
How about we point out the BLM riots when Kamala Harris solicited donations for the rioters to be released after they burned down a police station, shot people across the country 30 plus dead. | ||
You want to talk about an existential threat? | ||
It was that. | ||
Because that violated all the norms. | ||
And when we said, hey, maybe you shouldn't do that, they said, no, you're the bad guy. | ||
Now Trump is saying we need accountability. | ||
And the response is still, no, you're the bad guy. | ||
Well, you know what? | ||
I don't care what you think anymore. | ||
I don't care what Democrats think. | ||
They say Senator Rand Paul, a fiscal hawk, said an MSC, MSN, I'm sorry, NPC's Meet the Press, lawfare in all forms is bad. | ||
I, you know what? | ||
I'm so over it, dude. | ||
He claimed charges brought against Trump were lawfair as well, but said it's also wrong if Republicans do it. | ||
This is the spineless cowardice. | ||
I'm a fan of Rand Paul. | ||
unidentified
|
I am. | |
He's he's the best senator we got. | ||
But I'm gonna call him out when I think I should call him out. | ||
If you were being beaten over to a club, the idea that you just stand there and take it is the stupidest thing imaginable. | ||
Imagine someone's hitting you with a stick, and you go, now now, I know they're hitting you with a stick, but to hit them with a stick would be just as wrong. | ||
It's like, okay, and then crack, your skull breaks open, you fall down and you're dead. | ||
And then the next person walks up and says, I don't I don't care about your ideas. | ||
The American view is gone. | ||
You were beaten to death, and it's over. | ||
No, when the Democrats are beating you over the head, you say, Stop. | ||
I said, stop. | ||
I'm warning you for the last time. | ||
Stop. | ||
If you don't, I will use self-defense. | ||
And then when they swing, you grab the stick and you rip it from their hands, you throw it down, and then say, and now you are under arrest. | ||
The funny thing is, that's all we're doing. | ||
That's all Trump is saying. | ||
And Rand Paul and these other libertarian types still come and say, No, no, no, don't arrest them. | ||
That would be wrong. | ||
Bro, he was just beating us over there with a club. | ||
What are we gonna do? | ||
Just let him stand there and do it again? | ||
No. | ||
You arrest crimson. | ||
This is ridiculous. | ||
I ain't playing that game. | ||
Here's MSNBC. | ||
MS Now, we should call them. | ||
Why Trump's directive to A. G. Bondy should be seen as an impeachment level scandal. | ||
Oh, impeachment level. | ||
I don't care. | ||
Okay, I don't care. | ||
Your booze mean nothing. | ||
I've seen what makes you cheer. | ||
I don't care. | ||
Now, to be fair, the Daily B says Fox panel urges Trump to chill after bonkers' threat against his enemies. | ||
The host of Big Weekend show said that Trump was giving Dems fodder by calling for trials of his detractors. | ||
Oh, really? | ||
Fodder, huh? | ||
Co-host Tommy Loren warned Democrats might be empowered by seeing cancel culture played on a high level. | ||
Empowered. | ||
Okay. | ||
All right. | ||
I'm I'm listening. | ||
I'm listening. | ||
I'm listening. | ||
Guys, smash that like button. | ||
Share the show. | ||
Share the show. | ||
But I'm listening. | ||
I'm listening. | ||
I'm scared. | ||
You're saying that if we take action against these Democrats, they might escalate things. | ||
They might make things worse when they gain power again. | ||
Wow. | ||
Well, I don't know why we would let them take power again, but sure. | ||
We might, I guess. | ||
Because we have amnesia. | ||
But when they do take power, you mean it'll be worse than it was before? | ||
What are they gonna do? | ||
Are they gonna rip our souls from our corpses and purge them in the great eternal fires of damnation? | ||
I I I'm I'm I'm honest question. | ||
I mean, it's not like there's any prominent late-night conservative TV hosts or professors or journalists. | ||
It's not like uh they've not already killed people and locked them in jail and arrested them for memes. | ||
I'm genuinely curious, Fox, where you think it goes worse than it already is. | ||
Trump is the president and Charlie Kirk was just murdered. | ||
Okay. | ||
So even when Trump is in office, Democrats still be doing bad things. | ||
So genuine question. | ||
Should the Democrats take power again? | ||
I'm curious where you think this goes. | ||
It's gonna be worse. | ||
Okay, so after they kill us, they're gonna rip our, they're gonna pull our souls back from heaven. | ||
It's funny because I said that and I got I had Christian saying, Tim, you aren't going to heaven. | ||
And I'm like, okay, whatever. | ||
You get the point I'm making. | ||
They're gonna they're gonna they're gonna use a Ouija board and summon our souls back from the afterlife after we're dead and torture our eternal souls. | ||
I gotta be honest. | ||
When they're advocating for death, my death, other conservative commentators, Charlie Kirk already died, and there's already been threats of violence. | ||
Benny Johnson posted a video where his house was set on fire. | ||
What more do you expect to happen, I guess? | ||
And this is where we're going. | ||
So here we go. | ||
Rolling Stone posted this. | ||
Donald Trump and his administration use Charlie Kirk's murder as an excuse to ramp up their ongoing campaign for total power in their most authoritarian week yet. | ||
Really? | ||
Really? | ||
I call this evil. | ||
This is what evil looks like. | ||
Donald Trump said the people who encouraged and engaged in these violent acts must be held accountable. | ||
That's really it. | ||
You commit crimes, you go to jail. | ||
The Republicans said it's time to stop letting the far left murder people. | ||
And Rolling Stone is saying it's authoritarian. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
You're right, Fox. | ||
We should sit back, put our feet up, and just say, well, you know, I guess people are gonna die on the right. | ||
Because again, there's no late-night conservative talk show hosts. | ||
Greg Guttfeld, but he's on cable, so fine, I'll give him that. | ||
But who else? | ||
How many professors? | ||
Oh, yeah, none. | ||
Prominent journalists? | ||
Not really. | ||
To be fair, Matt Taibi, I wouldn't call him conservative, but he's certainly being honest. | ||
Winston Marshall posted this. | ||
Despite all the evidence, only 10% of Democrats believe Kirk's murderer had left wing beliefs. | ||
They have been radicalized and brainwashed by the mainstream media and social media. | ||
America's divide, America's divide is not simply by worldview, but by reality itself. | ||
You gov. Most Americans see left-wing beliefs behind Charlie Kirk's shooting, then see right wing beliefs. | ||
Okay. | ||
Well, that's true. | ||
Because that's reality. | ||
Here's what they said. | ||
Do you think that the person who killed Charlie was mostly motivated by left-wing beliefs, something other than political beliefs, not sure, and right wing beliefs. | ||
Among all U.S. adults, only 37% think he was a leftist. | ||
Despite what, four press conferences and all the evidence suggesting he was. | ||
Sixteen say it was something else, 30 are not sure, and 17 right wing beliefs. | ||
Well, that's crazy. | ||
17% think the guy was right wing. | ||
There's literally no evidence suggesting that. | ||
None whatsoever by party ID. | ||
10% of Democrats think he had left wing beliefs. | ||
I bet they're all 70 years old. | ||
Actually, to be fair, probably not. | ||
Probably younger. | ||
Twenty percent said something else. | ||
37 aren't sure, and 33% of Democrats think the guy was a right winger. | ||
That's because Jimmy Kimmel's a liar. | ||
John Oliver is a liar. | ||
Uh politics girl is a liar. | ||
It's because the liberals are all lying. | ||
Now, by all means, if someone said something other than political beliefs, okay, I'd say you're make you're you're you're arguing politics here, but at least that has some ground. | ||
Montell Williams said it was because he was in love. | ||
And and Charlie Kirk said something bad about his love. | ||
Oh, shut up. | ||
To be fair, it's fine to say it was something other than political beliefs. | ||
It is. | ||
I mean it's wrong. | ||
The dude was clearly left aligned. | ||
But at least you're making an argument. | ||
There's literally no argument for right wing. | ||
unidentified
|
None. | |
Independence, two to one. | ||
Think he had left wing beliefs. | ||
And Republicans correctly say sixty-eight percent. | ||
Although I do find it absolutely fascinating, you got a couple percentage couple percentage points, three or so, I think, that on the right who think is a right winger. | ||
You're wrong. | ||
But to Arnold McIntyre, he said, you are grieving the loss of Charlie Kirk. | ||
Your neighbor is not. | ||
In fact, they think people like you killed him. | ||
This is a difference so fundamental that no argument of evidence will change it. | ||
And you need to understand the implications of that fact. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Well, some stuff's happening. | ||
Recalled Oakland mayor, Shang Tao indicted by the U.S. attorney's office. | ||
That's federal. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Uh Trump's DOJ and d DOJ indebted a Democrat Congressman the case could fall apart. | ||
I mean, she's on video punching a cop. | ||
But sure, it could fall apart. | ||
Because of the country that we live in and the judges that we have, it's entirely possible that yes. | ||
Indeed. | ||
And this is where we currently are. | ||
Man. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't know what happens to this country. | ||
I don't know where we go from here. | ||
Indictments are happening. | ||
Moves are being made. | ||
Trump and Musk reunite at Charlie Kirk Memorial Service. | ||
To this I say, well, all right. | ||
Unity on the right. | ||
Moves being made. | ||
Something must be done. | ||
Should we sit back and say slow down there, Democrats this time? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
I'm not playing that game. | ||
I am not going to sit back facing these death threats and have to live like this. | ||
I got a couple options. | ||
Let me know what you think in the comments. | ||
Um, I can quit. | ||
Retire. | ||
Because I I gotta be honest. | ||
The uh stay in the political space advocating to challenge it challenge Democrats, but then agree Democrats can run roughshod. | ||
No, that's not an option. | ||
Because I'd basically just be saying, I will never do anything to defeat the Democrats, just complain about it, and then they will come and arrest me when they win office next year. | ||
Yeah, no, I'm I'm not interested. | ||
Well, they're not gonna take the presidency. | ||
So my options are shut her down and disappear and just live on a ranch and zip. | ||
I don't want to do that either. | ||
In which case, there is only one option for anybody in the political space who is not left aligned. | ||
And that is advocate for the entire legal use of government power to stop the criminals and the crooks that broke the law that have damaged and broken our system. | ||
Because if you don't, you will get a civil war. | ||
Right now, Donald Trump has an option. | ||
He can say, we're going to shut down the NGOs. | ||
We're going to arrest the crooks and the criminals, and he should. | ||
If Donald Trump says the NGOs that are funding the far left, that are firebombing buildings, we're going to let him, we're going to let them do whatever they want. | ||
They will lie, cheat, and steal. | ||
They will kill again. | ||
And I don't want it to be me or you. | ||
Honestly, I don't want it to be me. | ||
I mean, first and foremost, like I am me, right? | ||
But I don't want to see anybody else get hurt. | ||
If Trump uses the power that he has to shut down the far left now, to arrest the corrupt politicians, we may escape this yet. | ||
And Trump has the lawful authority. | ||
We elected him. | ||
He's saying to Pam, investigate these people. | ||
Do not let them just get away with the crimes they committed. | ||
Why would why would you do that for anybody? | ||
And maybe when the DOJ publishes the evidence and it becomes apparent to everyone exactly what Democrats were doing, then we can say, oh wow, Trump was right the whole time. | ||
And I think then liberals are going to whip into shape. | ||
What I can say is, it is sad, but the death of Charlie Kirk has shocked a lot of people into waking up. | ||
It's as though many people were thrown into Arctic waters. | ||
And it was a shock to their system. | ||
I can't believe what I'm seeing. | ||
I'm seeing prominent personalities, apolitical ones that were uh default lib, now praising Charlie Kirk. | ||
I kid you not, I'm getting text messages from people I know who are like default lib celebrity types, high-profile individuals who are saying, right on, man, right on, brother, about Charlie Kirk and all these things. | ||
They agree. | ||
And I'm sitting here wondering, like, wow. | ||
Charlie was doing such great work. | ||
And he was doing it very quickly. | ||
And so this lunatic took his life. | ||
And it is horrifying. | ||
We don't want to live that way. | ||
We want to live in a world where the work is hard and takes a long time. | ||
And Charlie built it up, and maybe in 10 years, we've we'd see much, much greater things. | ||
What I will say is this. | ||
When that man, the alleged assassin, took Charlie Kirk's life, he took away from all of us something very, very important that was going to contribute another 50 years of important political work. | ||
We will never get that back. | ||
But there may be an exponential return that they did they didn't calculate. | ||
Charlie Kirk's death ramped up awareness of the problem we face to such a degree, it may have saved this country. | ||
It's sad to say, I didn't want it to be this way. | ||
It's better that Charlie just speak his mind and win the hearts and minds of the people to save this country. | ||
They tried to stop him because they knew that he was too powerful. | ||
And in doing so, it shocked so many people that they've woken up. | ||
Now, even with Charlie Kirk's work with TPUSA, we may have been headed, we're circling that drain, whatever. | ||
I actually think for the first time in a long time, there is some hope. | ||
Because now regular people understand the threat we face. | ||
The people celebrating his death. | ||
That is not normal. | ||
Nobody wants to live that way. | ||
Trump getting his his his appointees confirmed. | ||
Elon Musk and Trump joining back together, unifying the individuals who are feuding on the right. | ||
We may now actually make a difference. | ||
Or I should at very least say it's happening much faster than we can ever could have thought possible For the worst reasons imaginable. | ||
But we have to accept that we will not give up. | ||
Erica Kirk is going to lead the charge. | ||
TPUSA had its biggest rally in its history for the worst reasons. | ||
But many, many new people are coming to understand what this country is going through. | ||
So, my friends, smash that like button, share the show with everyone you know. | ||
Subscribe to this channel. | ||
I got a new channel. | ||
It is at Tim Poole. | ||
You can find that on Rumble as well as YouTube. | ||
Subscribe, don't miss it. | ||
We got an interview with Aaron McIntyre coming up. | ||
This one's going to be interesting because he and I agree largely on what we are facing. | ||
So don't miss it. | ||
That'll be at 4 p.m. on the Culture War channel at Rumble, as well as YouTube.com/slash Timcast. | ||
Thanks for hanging out. | ||
And we'll see you all next time. | ||
In the meantime. | ||
I want to start before we do this interview with Orin with this tweet from Winston Marshall. | ||
Many of you have already seen it. | ||
I showed it in a previous segment. | ||
More Americans see left-wing beliefs behind Charlie Kirk's shooting than right wing beliefs. | ||
Well, it's true. | ||
The shooter, according to the evidence, was motivated by leftist ideology. | ||
But Democrats, for some reason, three to one think the shooter was right wing. | ||
Well, that's wrong. | ||
Oren McIntyre says, you are grieving the loss of Charlie Kirk. | ||
Your neighbor is not. | ||
In fact, they think people like you killed him. | ||
This is a difference so fundamental that no argument or evidence will change it. | ||
And you need to understand the implications of that fact. | ||
Now I've talked about this quite a bit. | ||
The bifurcation of American culture. | ||
In a conversation I had with Stephen Marsh, he wrote a book called The Next Civil War. | ||
And he's a liberal guy. | ||
He said, within the United States, there exists two countries: a multicultural democracy and a constitutional republic. | ||
Now he favors the multicultural democracy, the liberal guy. | ||
But he's correct. | ||
And I said, You're right. | ||
I'm a constitutional republic guy. | ||
These two nations cannot coexist in the same space. | ||
So what happens? | ||
What is true to liberals will only ever be true to liberals, and what is true to conservatives will only ever be true to conservatives. | ||
Now, me personally, I'm not even a conservative. | ||
I largely just want to know what's true. | ||
I do like the Constitution, the founding fathers' vision, it's created great things. | ||
And I believe that there is a truth. | ||
You cannot just subvert the will of the people by force. | ||
That defies the country that we're supposed to be defending. | ||
But the multicultural democracy left liberals, they do just that. | ||
I'm going to pull an Orin McIntyre who can break this down for us. | ||
I believe we have him uh ready to go. | ||
Let's uh boot it up. | ||
And it's loading up, fixing the audio, weird audio loop. | ||
And I believe we have uh Orin being pulled in right now. | ||
Aaron, can you hear me? | ||
Hey, how's it going? | ||
It is going very well. | ||
How about you, sir? | ||
Doing well, doing well. | ||
Now, uh, over the past couple of weeks, obviously everyone's aware of what happened. | ||
Even people who don't follow politics are talking about it when uh, you know, it got to the bar or whatever, wherever uh wherever it is we may be. | ||
Now, here's here's what's crazy. | ||
You have this tweet that I just cited. | ||
There's data showing that liberals believe the shooter of Charlie Kirk was a Republican or was a conservative. | ||
And the reason for this is largely in my view, uh, you've got prominent liberals intentionally lying. | ||
You have, of course, Jimmy Kimmel getting canceled after his comments was they were trying to claim he was anything but one of their own, the MAGA people. | ||
There's no way he didn't know that in my view. | ||
He has a team of researchers and writers. | ||
They had to have seen the press conferences going over the information. | ||
John Oliver is doubled down saying, well, it was an honest, you know, as what everyone thought. | ||
Stephen Colbert doubled down and said he did nothing wrong. | ||
So liberals genuinely believe this, and nothing you say will change it. | ||
And now what have we seen? | ||
At Charlie Kirk's memorial, liberals went online to say it was a Nazi rally. | ||
They went on to say that they were they were lying about mourning Charlie Kirk and they were calling for action. | ||
I have received death threats, others have. | ||
You made this statement in response to this uh poll saying that you're, you know, that you right now are mourning Charlie Kirk, but they are not, and it's a difference so fundamental, you need to understand what that means. | ||
So I'm curious, what does this mean? | ||
Well, a lot of people knew what they were doing from the very beginning. | ||
The media knows that if they go out There and set the narrative. | ||
They set the pace. | ||
They put out the idea that this shooter is right wing before any of the facts come in, that they have set an anchor that will be almost impossible to unru to remove from the minds of their audiences. | ||
Because people in MSNBC and all these other networks, they're not going to go back and correct all of this. | ||
They're not going to lay out the differences and nuances and updates for their audiences. | ||
Their audiences heard that this guy might be a groiper, he might be a right winger, disgruntled, white supremacy, whatever. | ||
And that is what the vast majority of them will believe. | ||
I remember sitting at a bar with a friend, someone who's a pretty sane person, even though they're a little left of center, just a few months ago, and they looked at me with a straight face with a couple of their friends, friends nodding in agreement when they said that the Trump assassination was a coordinated CIA op to make sure that he got elected. | ||
This is something that real people still believe to this day. | ||
So what Jimmy Kimmel is doing, and this is why I have no no guilt about getting him fired, helping to get him fired, is that ultimately what he was doing was setting this narrative. | ||
He was making sure to cover for left-wing terrorists because the leftists cannot admit who they are. | ||
They are the party of terrorism. | ||
They are the party of political violence. | ||
While they cry and scream about the nature of our sacred democracy, what they really mean is that anyone who threatens their homogeneous rule of our country is ultimately a threat to their life, and they will kill you if you disagree or work against them. | ||
We all know that's what a number of leftists unfortunately now believe, and we can see it on our timelines every day. | ||
And so, in order to manufacture this narrative to stay out in front of all the facts, guys like Jimmy Kimmel ran out there and lied to the American people. | ||
And that is going to be that is going to stay entrenched in many progressive circles for the rest of their lives. | ||
I uh years ago was on the free speech for all, no matter what wagon. | ||
And what did we see? | ||
A conservative or right-ling person or just anti-establishment, because they were even, you know, social libs who are not lying, but they were getting censored as well, but not as much. | ||
They'd get censored and the left would cheer. | ||
These liberal personalities would cheer, and we'd say, but free speech. | ||
And they would then make memes of freeze peach and insult you and mock you and laugh about it. | ||
And then when a leftist or liberal got censored for some rare reason, they would say this is unfair. | ||
What about my free speech? | ||
And then people like me would come out and say, I'm gonna defend them. | ||
They should be allowed to speak because that's freedom. | ||
I changed my mind. | ||
Not on free speech, not on the right of everyone to have it, but on defending those who are trying to destroy my way of life. | ||
That is to say, if there's a communist, I met a met a guy in Berkeley, over a communist wearing a command, uh, you know, wearing a Soviet flag mask, and he said, and I asked him about the violence from the left. | ||
He says it's wrong, man. | ||
And then I was like, really? | ||
And he goes, Yeah, no one should be allowed to do that. | ||
They should be arrested. | ||
And I was like, I agree with you. | ||
I shook his hand. | ||
I will defend that man's right to hand out his books and his pamphlets and do whatever, because he stood alongside me saying, we're gonna have a battle of ideas, may the best ideas win. | ||
And I think I will. | ||
But now what I'm seeing is they killed Charlie Kirk for his speech. | ||
They are actively trying to they they use, they use email campaigns, they use smear tactics and lies to scare people into suppressing our rights and then beg us to let them to do it. | ||
I say no to that. | ||
And I think you agree, but there are a lot of people now claiming that this is illiberal or it's leftism itself. | ||
I'm curious what you think. | ||
Yeah, it's hard to hold up people like Jimmy Kimmel as free speech champions because, of course, he was making jokes about why it was justified to fire Roseanne Barr when Michelle Obama was making calls to the same network he works for now. | ||
He has supported people's cancellation, he has cheered for their cancellation. | ||
And I think it's really critical for people to understand this. | ||
You know, for a while, me and some guys like me have been trying to explain to conservatives, the wider right, even just non-woke leftists, that we are heading towards a different type of politics. | ||
And that's really hard for people to understand because we lived our entire lives under this shared idea of what it meant to be an American, to speak your mind, to have an exchange of ideas. | ||
We like that type of politics, but by and far, that is not how politics has been practiced through most of history. | ||
Through most of history, politics has been an existential act. | ||
It has been about taking your own life into your hands when you deal in the arena of public discourse. | ||
Now, I don't want to live in that way. | ||
I think the world that Charlie Kirk was trying to uh perpetuate is the better version of that. | ||
But we have to understand that that type of debate only occurs when you share a certain bedrock tradition, faith, principle, belief, understanding of the world. | ||
And we have watched as our understanding is rendering itself further and further away from each other to the point now where it's very clear the left has none of those principles at all. | ||
And they only pull those principles out when they think they can beat you to death with them. | ||
So we're kind of on the other side of the Rubicon here. | ||
They shot the free speech guy in the throat. | ||
Now, I would like a world where guys like Charlie Kirk can speak freely and convince people with the power and authority of their logical arguments, but they can't do that when people are being shot in the throat. | ||
So if we want to get back to a place where that type of politics works, we have to change what we're doing now. | ||
They're lying with their fake stats saying the right is responsible for more extremist extremist acts. | ||
It's just fundamentally not true. | ||
The stats they use include white supremacist prison gangs getting into fights in prison or uh white supremacist beating his wife. | ||
When you actually look at violent crime in general, if we want to include all of it, Democrats way outrank Republicans. | ||
When you look at the cities, duh, these people largely vote Democrat, they're violent. | ||
But at least we can say this. | ||
In the past couple of years, it's been overwhelmingly far left, especially with the George Floyd riots. | ||
So I see these centrist types coming out and saying I love this one where they say, you better be careful about what you do now because Democrats will take power again. | ||
And when they do, they'll come for you. | ||
And my response is what's what's it's gonna get worse? | ||
You know, I was just saying this a moment ago, what are they what are they gonna do? | ||
They're gonna exhume our corpses and pull our souls back from the other side. | ||
They're already killing people. | ||
They killed the free speech guy. | ||
So what I'm seeing now is, and I to agree with your point you made is the debate, the free speech, all that stuff, it works within a community. | ||
I disagreed with Charlie on a handful of things. | ||
And uh, TikTok, for instance, and I'd go on my show and I'd say that. | ||
He'd go on his show, express his view, we express our views, and Charlie still invited me to be part of his events because despite our political disagreements, we are one community. | ||
But what's happened now with these people on the left, they arrested Donald Trump multiple times, accused him of fraud falsely, arrested his lawyers unconstitutionally, imprisoned his supporters, arrested people for memes. | ||
And then during the riots, when 30 plus people died, raised money for the rioters who helped make this happen and burn down police stations. | ||
Why won't conservatives recognize the i let me put it like this. | ||
I was saying this yesterday. | ||
Nobody lamented the loss of due process for Solomani. | ||
There were anti-war people who said maybe we shouldn't have done this because it could create war. | ||
But no one, not a single person came out and said, why didn't Solomani get a fair trial in the United States? | ||
Well, because he was an enemy combatant in Iraq. | ||
He was an Iranian in Iraq and we dropped a bomb on him. | ||
Nobody lamented his rights. | ||
The question now, the issue, I suppose, and I think a lot of these people, these libertarian centrists and some conservatives don't recognize, is that these leftists have no intention of debating you. | ||
They're actively supporting the murder of the guy who wanted to debate. | ||
And they're not recognizing that there is a line in which we stop defending people trying to kill us. | ||
Yeah, ultimately, I think there are a number of people who, for many, many decades were told that wanting power, that exercising power was the most evil thing in the world. | ||
Conservatism was all about small government. | ||
It was about hands off, don't do anything, never take any action. | ||
When we're in power, we just hold back the tide. | ||
And then when the left's in power, they do whatever they want, they run roughshot over us. | ||
Now, not only has that failed as a political strategy, it's obviously just the opposite of what our founding fathers actually said in the Federalist papers. | ||
If you look at Federalist 51, it says ambition checks ambition. | ||
If you have one group who is doing something bad, you need another group who will take an action in reaction to what they are doing in order to stop them. | ||
Tit for tat. | ||
The only thing that ever works in game theory, you can know this academically, or you can know this from having been on a playground when you were seven years old. | ||
But we all know how this works. | ||
If one side goes completely unanswered with violent actions, with ridiculous actions, calling for violence, pushing This stuff, then they will continue to do that. | ||
In fact, they will escalate it. | ||
And we're seeing that now because the real worry, the real worry is not that there would be some terrible reaction on the right to Charlie Kirk's death. | ||
That would have been bad. | ||
I'm glad there was no retaliatory violence. | ||
But the real worry, the scariest worry is that the state will not take sufficient action to punish those in charge. | ||
They will not use the legitimate power of the state to punish those who have perpetuated this violence, are enacting this violence, are planning this violence. | ||
And if that is not done, the left will only get crazier. | ||
And we can see this right now. | ||
You can see major personalities personalities like the Cransteins on Twitter on the left, talking about how they are Antifa, how they support Antifa's work. | ||
They are directly declaring their support for a violent, murderous terrorist network, and they expect to pay no cost. | ||
And I'll be real honest here. | ||
I want unity on the right. | ||
But if guys like James Lindsay and Seth Dylan are going to run out and protect terrorist sympathizers online and say, no, the right are the bad guys, the people trying to bring justice are the bad guys. | ||
The people warning about the murders are the bad guys. | ||
And actually, we support the people who are cheering on Antifa. | ||
Sorry, I don't have time for that. | ||
I don't want to fight with the right now right now. | ||
I don't want to feud with that. | ||
I don't want to use Charlie Kirk's death to settle any scores. | ||
I want the left to stop murdering people. | ||
And there is a set of actions that have to be taken to make that happen. | ||
And if you are telling me that we're not allowed to do that, then sorry, I have no time for you. | ||
That's why I refer to uh James Lindsay and Seth Dylan as the woke right. | ||
Because they are they they you know, James purporting to be more uh I don't think he calls them self-a conservative, but uh independent and Seth Dylan purported conservative, but they serve the interests of the leftist orthodoxy. | ||
They are the right side of the woke coin. | ||
Now, of course, they use they use the term to describe this amorphous, nebulous, vague group of people on the right of varying ideologies, which makes literally no sense. | ||
My view is this I I completely agree with you. | ||
They are coming out now, and uh, I'll put it this way. | ||
I asked a legitimate philosophical moral question of Seth Dylan. | ||
And for those of not familiar, he's the uh guy from the Babylon B. What would the left have to do or collectively support for you to not defend them? | ||
Serious question. | ||
And the response I got was you misspelled your and when did you stop beating your wife? | ||
Because they couldn't answer the question. | ||
So they pretended that I was making a rhetorical statement in defense of cancellations or it was a legitimate question. | ||
The reality is they can't actually answer it. | ||
Well, I asked this question legitimately because we ask it of all rights. | ||
Individuals have freedom of movement. | ||
At what point do we tell a person not anymore? | ||
We know the line. | ||
It is um if you walk into a grocery store and grab an apple and walk out, guess what? | ||
We have decided as a society we will take your right of freedom of movement from you. | ||
If you smash a window and enter someone's a building, you did not have the freedom to do that. | ||
We will, we will lock you in a box. | ||
Now you can't go anywhere until we say see otherwise. | ||
So when it comes to these simple things, we even determine, and this is this is what I find fascinating in the argument the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. | ||
Actually, our society largely determines that the line at which an individual without force of government can decide to deprive you of life, it's actually much less than the threat of death. | ||
Simply fear of death or injury, great bodily harm, is enough in our society for an individual to determine they can take your life from you legally and lawfully. | ||
Now, I don't want anyone to die. | ||
Of course not. | ||
I want people to be able to speak freely, but that's where the line is socially. | ||
When it comes to these people who are lying intentionally to inflame tensions, escalate violence, and encourage others, or to satisfy their bloodlust. | ||
I'm not gonna defend them. | ||
I'm certainly not saying that I think this stupid teacher who, you know, set lied about Charlie Kirk. | ||
I'm not saying celebrated death, I'm saying just lied about his worldview, should have been fired. | ||
Some people have gotten her fired. | ||
They ask me to go and defend her and try and get her job back. | ||
No way. | ||
She may not be, in my view, threatening my life. | ||
But the point is this I'm not going to defend her. | ||
When I ask this of these woke right guys, James Lindsay and Seth Dylan, they don't have an answer as to what line needs to be crossed. | ||
So I'll make it simple. | ||
When the collective actions of the left are to support the murder of a good man who wanted debate in Free speech, at bare minimum, I say, I am not going to defend them. | ||
They argue it's defending free speech, not the person. | ||
That's that's semantic nonsense. | ||
They're asking me to go for bat to espouse a view that would get this person their job back. | ||
I'm not going to do it. | ||
I assume you agree. | ||
I'm kind of ranting on this one, though. | ||
No, I'm with you 100%. | ||
And this is why ultimately I felt like Jimmy Kimmel needed to be removed from television in a way that some teacher who you know said they don't like Charlie Kirk does not. | ||
I don't think that person should really be teaching my kids either. | ||
But definitely Jimmy Kimmel going out there and lying to millions of people to cover for terrorists is absolutely something that has to stop. | ||
And you know, in in his book, uh Thoughts and Machiavelli, the philosopher Leo Strauss said that Machiavelli, who actually supported Republican government, most people think he was a monarchist, but actually he was pro-Republican government. | ||
And he said that Republican governments require, of course, virtuous people who share a culture, share an identity, share an understanding. | ||
And he said, in the life of every republic, you'll come to a moment where the rules of that republic have degraded so much. | ||
The quality of people in the republic have degraded so much that you have to do something outside of the rules to bring things back into alignment, to return yourself to a place where you can live by those rules again. | ||
Now, I don't even know if we're there entirely, but it's very clear that half of the country has fallen out of this understanding of the rules. | ||
They know their character has degraded. | ||
They are no longer capable of the type of self-government government and self-control that is required for a republic republic to flourish. | ||
And so in order to bring those people back into line to set a corrective state where we can return to a place where guys like Shirley Kirk can sit peacefully without fear on a chart a college campus and speak the truth. | ||
We're going to need to take action to correct that 50% of the population. | ||
This is not some crazy idea. | ||
This is not some out of the this is a very reasonable understanding that has been brought about throughout philosophical understanding through political theory throughout the entirety of the discipline. | ||
So this is not a crazy thing to say. | ||
This is just the basics that are required that are understood by everyone from Machiavelli to our founders to Leo Strauss. | ||
This is a basic thing that is understood by everyone who's actually looked at how politics works. | ||
You cannot allow half the population to not believe in the tenets of Republican government, but expect them to then reap the benefits of Republican government. | ||
It's one or the other. | ||
There's a funny meme where it's like a comic, and there's a man and a woman living in a field, and the man constructs a fence around the property and says, I've constructed this fence, wife, to keep you safe from wolves. | ||
And then the next panel is a wolf comes up and says, that man just created this fence to keep you imprisoned. | ||
Tear down this fence and be free. | ||
So she does, and then the wolf eats her. | ||
And the idea, it's it's largely shared by uh like red pill guys to make this point about feminism and stuff. | ||
But I think the idea is actually extending beyond that. | ||
These these woke right guys who are defending what the left does because principles are exactly the person that doesn't understand that they are in a fenced, protected society. | ||
And it is unfortunate that this great nation has created such a it's such a great system, better than every other system, that it's created people who don't realize what life is like outside of it. | ||
And so when the left says collectively, our intention is to destroy your way of life, they think, but we have always just debated. | ||
And that has always worked for us, despite the fact that 250 years ago, the founding fathers actually fought a bloody war to be able to actually have this way of life. | ||
And there were loyalists who sided with the crown to stop that from happening. | ||
And even some people don't know a declaration of dependence. | ||
They didn't literally call it that, but it is colloquially called that. | ||
So the way the way I look at it like is like is like this. | ||
There are people that say an authoritarian right-wing government is a nightmare dystopia. | ||
And the question I ask is, why do you believe that and what does it look like? | ||
Well, it looks like V for vendetta, right? | ||
Where the chancellor was making up lies to control the public and experimenting on people. | ||
And then I say, wow, you're right. | ||
That's really bad. | ||
We don't want that. | ||
And then simultaneously we say the communists were substantially worse in real life, 125 million deaths all the stuff. | ||
We don't want that either. | ||
We don't want authoritarianism. | ||
So then, recognizing those fears, Trump says, I will deploy the National Guard to stop crime. | ||
And we are told not to allow that, because that would be like the right wing government of V for vendetta. | ||
But I was talking to my friends about it, and they said, What do you like? | ||
What's going to what's it gonna look like if Trump does this? | ||
And I said, Um, you won't notice a thing. | ||
You'll you'll notice later. | ||
You'll you'll be driving down the street in DC. | ||
There will be no homeless people, there'll be less crime, it'll be cleaner. | ||
And then um, periodically, you might have a guy walk up to you and say, uh, excuse me, sir, uh, where are you headed? | ||
And you'll be like, I'm just going to Starbucks, and it'll be like, Yeah, yeah, what's uh what are you doing there? | ||
And you'll be like, just gonna grab a coffee and then go to work, and I'll say, All right, have a good day, sir, and that's it. | ||
They they they seem to think that every circumstance in which there is law enforcement will be a dictatorship. | ||
But that's just this it's a fear that I that I understand, but just because there are police and law enforcement doesn't mean they're gonna be beating you and locking you in cages. | ||
It is, in fact, the prerequisite for an ordered society. | ||
Uh, but I think a lot of people need to understand uh where we're at historically. | ||
So, in the lead up to the Spanish Civil War, uh, there was a lot of terrorism from the left. | ||
They murdered public officials, private individuals, they bombed people on a routine basis, anarchists were murdering uh government officials who were right wing in the street, and the Republican government at the time would not take action because they were sympathetic to the left. | ||
So they kept making excuses as to why they couldn't do anything. | ||
Oh, well, we have to abide by blah blah blah blah. | ||
But what people saw over and over again were people being murdered in the street consistently by the left. | ||
And eventually the people said, you know what? | ||
Give me Franco. | ||
Because if the government cannot stop this, if they will not stop, if they refuse to use their righteous position as the civil magistrate under the authority of God to stop those that are murdering people who are just trying to participate in the government, then I need someone who will. | ||
And so for those who truly are worried about right wing authoritarian, if you're really worried about the big scary man, you know, the mid-century German coming for you, then let me tell you something. | ||
The best thing you can do now is actually use the legal force that you have to put a severe penalty on those who are planning violence, who are promoting violence, who are deploying it. | ||
Because if you do not, the next guy will be Franco. | ||
It will be someone who is pushing for this. | ||
My understanding is uh the the executive summary of the Spanish Civil War is there the the uh right actually won power, did nothing to stop the left running rampant, killing people, and allowed the leftist to regain power in government. | ||
And it was then Franco witnessing everything happening, started speaking with other people finding loyals and said, we have to stop this now or else. | ||
And I believe he was in Morocco and then came up to Spain. | ||
The people who agree with him decided to fight alongside him, and then they decided to take over. | ||
The fascinating thing is they say it was uh, you know, a right-wing authoritarian takeover after Spain and all that stuff. | ||
Francoism ended when Franco died. | ||
And the government was just like, okay, we'll be uh uh uh a democratic system again. | ||
Whereas with uh, you know, Mao and the country is still under this this authoritarian control, North Korea, the Soviet Union it broke apart, but look how those countries are doing, and Putin's been in power for decades and just bounces back and forth with his authoritarian system. | ||
It's fascinating how these right wing systems eventually just fizzle out and break, even like South America. | ||
Yeah, again, I think it's one of those moments where you have a corrective to a left wing that is just completely out of control. | ||
It is again that restorative moment. | ||
Now, I hope we don't get to that point. | ||
I hope that Donald Trump uses the authority of the government to crack down sufficiently, not just on the Antifa members, but absolutely they should all be in jail. | ||
I need thousands of arrests. | ||
I want agents kicking down doors, swinging through windows, ripping leftists who are planning violence out of their beds in the middle of the night and putting them in leg irons. | ||
I want it public. | ||
I want it to be clear. | ||
There is a cost now. | ||
You can't just blow up cities, burn cities down, shoot at presidents, murder firefighters, murder conservative activists. | ||
That is over. | ||
Because if we do not send that message, the people will find someone who will. | ||
And so I am hoping very much that under the color of law, with nothing but legitimate Government action, Donald Trump does what needs to be done here, because that is actually what stops leftist violence. | ||
That wringing your hands about abstract principles that don't even apply in this scenario. | ||
We have principles. | ||
We have plenty of principles. | ||
And those principles are defending the people of the United States and their rights to speak. | ||
Charlie Kirk's right to free speech was ended by a bullet. | ||
If we do not stop leftists from inning the rights of people with a bullet, things are going to only get worse. | ||
You know, Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus. | ||
Uh waged uh sent sent troops into states uh that had defied the union. | ||
And uh he had the Maryland, I I think a third of the Maryland legislature was arrested for being sympathetic to the South because Maryland was a slave state. | ||
And he's the most popular president in history, and they cheer for him and celebrate him. | ||
So when you ask these Democrats about Abraham Lincoln, they'll tell you, of course he was the best. | ||
Now, maybe their reasons may be different. | ||
Yeah, it's slavery, they'll say. | ||
Well, if they if they say that his actions were justified, what he did was good, okay. | ||
Then there comes a time when a leader says, the rules be damned, I'm doing what must be done to preserve the union. | ||
If they say that's fascism, you can realize they're talking about both sides of their mouths because they praise Abraham Lincoln in one in one sentence and then d deny him in the other. | ||
I think there's a reality. | ||
That's what I was saying about when Solomon he died. | ||
We we as a government are concerned about infringements against those in our community because the government is supposed to be of for and by us. | ||
The problem is the left has made clear they are not in the same community as us. | ||
And so what then? | ||
If people are actively killing you, opening your borders to 20 million non-citizens, allowing non-citizens citizens to vote. | ||
They are telling you outright they are not of the same body politic. | ||
If you then let them do it, you are just laying down and surrendering. | ||
I think that's the reality for a lot of these uh fake conservative woke right types is that their attitude is let the left win by brute force, because then I can be left alone. | ||
Sam Francis uh called this the beautiful losers, right? | ||
As long as I can say that I am morally clean, I am morally just, then it doesn't matter if I lose. | ||
It doesn't matter if I fail, except it turns out it does matter quite a bit. | ||
Unfortunately, the magical system a lot of people pretend the founders believed in, they didn't actually believe in. | ||
They tell you what limits the power of the government and overreach by people, and that is consequences. | ||
But a lot of people have said, oh no, if we just tell them, if we just lecture them with, you know, principles, they'll understand, they'll come to recognize that ultimately we are in the right. | ||
But of course you're correct. | ||
The left has championed guys like FDR who, you know, interred the Japanese and the Germans who ended up, you know, taking over and seizing large amounts of government authority who threatened to pack the court if they didn't do what he wanted to do, and he's a titan of the left. | ||
These people are not uh just super excited about demonstrations of restrained government. | ||
When's the last time you saw a leftist praising Calvin Coolidge? | ||
My my one one last thing, real quick, I got about a minute left. | ||
My favorite thing recently is uh we've had this debate about whether the United States was a Christian nation. | ||
And I think you probably know this, most people don't. | ||
The liberals argue they didn't put it in the Constitution because it wasn't a Christian nation. | ||
When in reality, the reason why the federal constitution did not mandate Christianity was because the states had different uh uh uh Maryland was Catholic, most states were Protestant, and the state constitutions of every colony except Virginia required a professed belief in a Christian God. | ||
So the federal constitution said, look, we get it, there's different denominations here. | ||
Maryland is largely Catholic, so we don't want to tell you what to believe. | ||
The states have done it already. | ||
And now they argue that this was a secular nation from the get-go, ignoring what the founding fathers actually said. | ||
Only Jefferson in Virginia was like, no, no, no, we're not gonna do that here. | ||
But uh we we are at a time. | ||
So is any any last thoughts or anything you want to shout out? | ||
Where can people find you? | ||
Of course. | ||
I'm over at Blaze TV, of course, with the show or in McIntyre show. | ||

Thank you again for having me, Tim. | ||
Thanks for having uh thanks for joining, man, and we'll we'll see you next time. | ||
unidentified
|
See. | |
All right. | ||
That was, of course, Aaron McIntyre. | ||
I think he's had a lot of uh made a lot of great points uh as to this culture war that we are facing. | ||
And uh, you know, I'll I'll I'll make that point one more time. | ||
I believe uh, obviously, when you read about the Founding Fathers, the United States was founded as a Christian nation. | ||
Uh look this up if you haven't already. | ||
We we went through all of this. | ||
The The original 13 colonies all required a professed belief in God. | ||
In fact, some of them actually said a Protestant guy, uh Protestant God, and that you could not be Catholic. | ||
Like, they actually barred Catholics. | ||
That's how strict they were on their religion. | ||
The Federal Constitution didn't make mention of this, and freedom of religion was protected because they knew there were different denominations of Christian, but for the most part, the states themselves mandated this. | ||
The founding fathers and all of these states were like, yeah, of course. | ||
The country was 99% Christian. | ||
I am not saying that you have to believe whatever. | ||
I'm not saying you should be forced to believe whatever. | ||
I'm saying these are the moral traditions of this nation. | ||
And it what and it's what we have. | ||
The left is opposed to this. | ||
I think it's fair to say there's a direct correlation between the decrease in Christianity and Christian world tradition and the rise of secular leftists who who believe the fascistic ethos, there is no truth but power. | ||
So my friends, I'm gonna wrap it up there. | ||
