At the beginning of the year, before it was clear that Kamala Harris would replace
Joe Biden on the ticket, the Washington Post ran an op-ed entitled,
For the country's sake,
Vice President Harris should step aside.
The editorial called Harris a colossal failure
and specifically criticized her for cackling
at strange and unsettling moments.
Now, around the same time in April,
a CNN panel also discussed whether Joe Biden
should ditch Kamala Harris,
and again, they didn't just discuss her job performance,
which was abysmal.
They also cited her frequent joker-like cackling
as one of the reasons that she's so unappealing to voters.
Watch.
Because it's not just focus groups that are down on Harris right now.
In a recent poll, national poll, 40% approved of the vice president's job performance,
while 55% disapproved.
One of the things that people objected to was her voice.
They said they found her voice, especially her laugh, annoyed.
Even the feminists on the panel conceded that Kamala Harris has issues communicating with voters.
This was an unusual moment of honesty that came about because at the time, Democrats were still fantasizing about swapping Kamala Harris out for a candidate the voters might actually like.
Now, of course, that opportunity came and went following the coup that took down Joe Biden.
As a result, these types of discussions have mostly disappeared from places like CNN and the Washington Post.
Criticizing a woman's tendency to cackle at inopportune times is considered sexist now because, you know, she might become the first female president.
she's the one they're stuck with.
So now all the things they were saying before are verboten and sexist and horrible and probably
racist.
But the underlying issue still never went away.
Just because the press doesn't want to talk about Kamala Harris' cackle anymore doesn't change the fact that
most people think it's extremely off-putting.
It still projects the image of an airhead or a day drinker rather than a competent presidential
candidate.
So CNN and Washington Post, they were right about this when they said this a few months ago.
And obviously, she can't bring herself to stop doing it,
no matter how many times they've probably tried to tell her to knock it off.
So the Kamala Harris campaign needed to come up with some kind of solution to this problem.
They'd find a way to put a positive spin on their candidate's behavior,
especially if they were going to accuse the other side of being weird.
So over the past few weeks, it's clear what solution they came up with.
They've decided to rebrand Kamala Harris as the candidate of joy.
Joy.
So instead of disturbing voters, we're now led to believe that her laugh is a completely normal and healthy sign of how happy she and her supporters actually are.
And so just a few months after the corporate press told us that Kamala Harris's laughter was one of her biggest liabilities,
there's now been an incessant drumbeat from the media to convince us that it's actually somehow an asset.
There have been about a million contrived articles to this effect over the last week or two.
Rolling Stone, for example, declared that Kamala Harris has adopted the politics of joy.
which is apparently the best way to fight fascism.
As Rolling Stone put it,
history shows that joy and mockery
are key to taking down existing or would-be authoritarian regimes.
Now, never mind the fact that the Nazis
set up an organization called Strength Through Joy,
which would seem to be a factoid from history
that contradicts Rolling Stone's thesis,
but never mind that.
Meanwhile, the Guardian reported,
Democrats' joy is unconfined
as Harris and Walls take upbeat message
on tour. The article quoted Tim Walz is saying, quote, thank you, Madam Vice President,
for the trust you put in me, but maybe more so, thank you for bringing back the joy.
Bringing back the joy is what Kamala Harris has done. For its part, Salon ran a similar headline,
Why Joy Matters. Kamala Harris hopes happy women can defeat Donald Trump and Maga's male rage.
Kamala Harris bets the election on women's joy. Donald Trump stakes his hopes on men's anger.
Now, to illustrate the point even further, just the case the other 10,000 articles didn't drive home the message enough, the New Yorker's latest cover featured Donald Trump and J.D. Vance looking forlorn going down on a roller coaster. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris and Tim Walls are going up the roller coaster, and they're waving their hands around with a gust of wind behind them very joyfully. You can see the picture there. Now, this is, you know, maybe semantics, but I don't know how many roller coasters, the editors of the New Yorker have been.
been on, but the fun part is going down.
That's when you get all the momentum and everyone goes crazy.
That's when the theme park takes your photo and you share it on social media and everyone says,
look how joyful that guy is at that theme park.
On the way up, they're supposed to be anticipation.
It's also supposed to be a lot slower going up than going down because of the laws of physics.
So it doesn't really make any sense.
But the New Yorker is willing to suspend the laws of physics and the rules of good cartoon making
to play their small role in the media-wide rebrand of Kamala Harris's cackle.
that are willing to completely debase themselves
with the privilege of selling this narrative
that nobody actually believes.
So speaking of overselling the narrative,
Tim Walls has taken to wildly gesticulating
and prancing around at every rally he attends.
It's maybe the most unnatural display of fake sincerity
by a vice presidential candidate
since John Edwards was around,
especially from a guy who's supposed to have,
what did they say on CNN or MSN?
He's a big dad energy.
Okay, dads don't prance around.
You don't see dad's prancing.
Dads don't prance.
That's not the thing dads do.
But Tim Walls does a lot of prancing,
and he has to do it because the rebrand states
that Kamala Harris's campaign is joyful now.
So, you know, he's got to play along.
Watch.
We believe in the promise of America.
We just have to fight.
We just have to fight for it.
Because as the next president of the United States says,
she says it often.
When we fight,
We win. When we fight, we win. When we fight, we win. Thank you, Nebraska. Let's go.
You know, it was, what, like a year ago that Donald Trump saying fight like hell was supposedly evidence that he's a violent insurrectionist who belongs in prison.
And now we have Tim Walls repeatedly telling his supporters to fight and they repeat the chant back at him.
And this time in the round is supposedly a sign of joy.
Not only is it not criminal, it's something to celebrate.
It's joyful fighting.
And then Tim Walls starts clapping and waving his arms hysterically, you know, because he's so joyful.
It's obviously choreographed and disingenuous, but they keep doing it at every single rally in public appearance.
So we get tons of images of Tim Walls like this one.
That's the goofy guy who helped create the gay club at his high school.
I mean, when I say his high school, the high school where he was a teacher, not a student,
before he then go on to require that tampons were distributed in boys' parents.
bathroom. So nothing to see here. Nothing weird about that. He's just joyful, along with the rest
of the Democrats. In order to buy that Democrats are now the party of joy, you don't just have to
overlook how fake and thrown together this whole act is. You also have to ignore what Democrats are
saying and doing. You have to set aside all of the examples of the Democrat Party going out of
its way to spread guilt and resentment and fear. For instance, you'd have to completely overlook the first
page of the DNC's 2024 platform, which amounts to an apology for the existence of America.
The very first thing they do, before they get into how they're going to institute price controls
and raise the corporate tax rate and so on is recite a land acknowledgement.
And quoting from it now, the Democratic National Committee wishes to acknowledge that we gather
together to state our values on lands that have been stewarded through many centuries
by the ancestors and descendants of the tribal nations who have been here since time.
Time immemorial. While we meet in Chicago, we also recognize an honor the traditional homelands of the
Anashanabi, also known as the Council of the Three Fires, the Ojibwe, Odawa, the Patuwatami
nations. We acknowledge the many other tribes who consider this area their traditional homeland,
including the Miami, the Ho-Chunk, the Minomini, the Sack and Fox, Peori, Kaskaskia,
Wea, Kickapoo, and Mascautton.
I did pretty good with that.
Not great, but I did pretty well.
Better than you thought I was going to do.
Now, in case you're wondering, yes, this land acknowledgement was copy-pasted from somewhere else.
You can find those same tribes in the same order all over the internet.
Whoever put this in the DNC platform has no idea what the Ho-Chunk is supposed to be, or if it even is a tribe.
I don't know.
Is it actually a tribe?
it sounds like something on like a Japanese food menu
but who knows and for that matter the person who wrote this land
acknowledgement in the first place has no idea either
the point of this document is not to celebrate these tribes it's not to condemn
conquest either since these tribes weren't the first ones to exist on this
continent and they certainly didn't exist since time immemorial okay
so-called Native Americans that were like what do you think that
that the land masses came into being and the
the Indian tribes just like grew out of the ground like trees.
That probably is what these people think.
No, they came here at some point in the past, just as the European settlers did.
They came here and fought and conquered the land.
And then the Europeans came and just did it better than them and won.
So that's it.
But the point of all this is to condemn the United States for existing and to instill guilt
in as many Americans as possible.
And that's not joy.
That's a pretext for the destruction of our civilization.
Of course, the destruction of civilization also entails a complete breakdown of law and order,
which we've also seen already during the DNC.
The Washington Free Beacons, Joe Samoenson, reported early in the evening that scores of people were filing out of the DNC
because of how dangerous it was becoming outside, quote, insane security failures, people all turning around and leaving,
all because of fear about protests, clown show.
Meanwhile, the Daily Wires Brent Scher observed that people were getting trampled and jumping over barriers during the panic.
He reported that one floor delegate called the situation absolute chaos, and the DNC is the worst event I've ever been to.
Not a very good review, I would say.
And outside the United Center, left-wing agitators were destroying fencing and clashing with police.
Watch.
Now, instead of condemning any of this, Joe Biden said last night that a lot of these protesters have a point.
You may remember that, you know, there weren't rows of boarded up buildings during the RNC in Milwaukee.
Riot police didn't fight with protesters who tore down security fencing.
There were no riot police there.
They didn't need to be there.
Nobody spat on the cops.
None of that happened.
Interestingly enough, those are only scenes that are reserved for the party.
of joy. When you're joyful, you destroy property and attack the police. That's what people who are
experiencing joy do. You also apparently invite a bunch of speakers to the DNC to explain one after the
other why you should be irrationally fearful at all times. That's what happened last night with Steve Kerr,
the same coach who refuses to badmouth China because the NBA makes a lot of money there,
you know, just a profile of courage, claim that it's dangerous to speak your mind in America
today. A state senator warned
that Donald Trump would inevitably weaponize
the Department of Justice to go after his political
opponents. Imagine that.
Who would ever do something like that? Well, it's only Donald
Trump. Andy Bashir said
that Donald Trump and J.D. Vance don't believe in the
concept of freedom. Joe Biden himself
screened his way through every single debunked hoax he
repeated of them all before. The very fine people
hoax, the suckers and losers hoax, the
dictator on day one hoax, the blood
bath hoax. And he did all of this to incite as much division as possible, and so on. And all of
this is supposedly joyful, is what we're told again and again and again. Now, one of the reasons
Democrats are pushing this message so aggressively, even though it's obviously false, is that it helps
reframe the national political debate. Just by talking about joy and by baiting their opponents
into responding to this fraudulent narrative, Democrats are distracting from a series of problems that they have,
a historically unlikable candidate with Venezuelan politics. So even a debate over whether
Democrats are really joyful or not indirectly kind of helps them out because it takes the
conversation away from them, away from all these other problems that they're having.
So we should reject the premise. Spreading joy isn't the job of the president in the first
place. Okay, the president has a lot of responsibilities. But that's
That's not one of them.
We don't look to the president to find out what emotional states we should be experiencing.
Whether I experience joy or not throughout my day has nothing to do with the president.
I don't check with the president first.
I don't know about you.
But even if we did, even if we accepted this strained artificial attempt to reframe Kamala Harris's obvious weakness,
then we certainly wouldn't look to the modern Democrat Party for joy.
as the DNC has already demonstrated.
They are without question the least joyful political party that has ever existed.
Now let's get to our five headlines.

My days are incredibly full between the show, being a dad, various other responsibilities.
I can't keep up with my day if I don't get a good night's sleep, which is why I appreciate my Helix mattress.
Helix harnesses years of mattress expertise to offer a truly elevated sleep experience.
The Helix Elite Collection includes six different mattress models, each tailored for specific sleep positions,

for our listeners. Go to helixsleep.com slash walsh. That's helixsleep.com slash walsh. It is their best
offer yet, and it won't last long. With Helix, better sleep starts now. So the first night of
the DNC last night, as we just talked about, Biden spoke around midnight, way, way past his
bedtime. It was an awful slurring, embarrassing speech. There's no
point even talking about the speech anymore or playing clips or anything like that.
Now that everyone admits he has dementia, like there's no point in discussing it.
And that's not to say that the point is irrelevant, however.
He is still the president, allegedly.
This guy is currently still, and will be for several more months, the president of the United
States of America, and he can't speak or walk or think or do anything, but he is the president.
And that's a fact that should matter.
And yet it apparently doesn't.
In fact, we've learned that, I guess, functionally, not having a president is an option.
Like, I think a lot of us thought that wasn't really an option.
But it is, because that's what we're going with right now.
We're just not going to have a president.
And, okay, maybe we should make that an official option on the ballot going forward.
Maybe every presidential election there should be like, you know, the Democrat, the Republican.
And then there should be a third box, not for a third party, but for nobody.
If you're voting that you just don't want to have a president for the next four years, let's have no president at all.
Let's just skip the next four years.
Maybe we might as well put that on the ballot now that we know that it's an option.
So we don't need to bother with the Biden speech.
Instead, I want to play this one from a little bit earlier in the night.
Here's a union leader delivering one of the most ear-piercing speeches that you'll ever hear.
So if you have any pets, especially any dogs in the house,
Just to not disturb them too much, you probably want to turn the volume down a little bit for this.
But here it is, listen.
And she walks a day in the shoes of a home care worker.
She shares our vision for a modern day labor movement,
a movement that meets the needs of workers in the 21st century and an economy that is ready for the future.
It is going to be together that we write new rules.
to make it easier for all workers to join a union.
And we, y'all, we are going to build a younger, darker,
hipper, fresher, sneaker-wearing labor movement.
Yeah, it's, I mean, well, you can't deny.
She has a smooth and pleasant voice.
It very much reminds me of the, the reassuring sounds
of like a thousand cats murdering each other.
her voice sounds like, it sounds like an argument between five feminists in one voice.
But, you know, I'm not going to, look, I remember when I went through puberty,
so I'm not going to make fun of her for this.
Pretty amazing. Less amazing is the open, overt racism on display, though.
There's nothing amazing about that at the DNC, as we've already covered.
It's to be expected.
She says that they're going to build a younger, hipper, fresher, darker labor movements.
you can't be any less subtle than that.
We want to make it darker.
And we can only assume that she means darker in terms of skin tones
and not darker in terms of being more disturbing,
which it will be the latter, inevitably,
but that's not what she meant.
She meant that they want fewer white people in the labor movement.
And this is blatant racism.
It's totally despicable.
It goes without saying that there would be an outrage explosion
to rival the asteroid impact that killed the dinosaur.
if a speaker stood on stage at the RNC and said they want to make any institution younger, hipper, fresher, and whiter.
If you can imagine someone saying that.
So blatant racism, blatant hypocrisy, we know that.
But the more critical point is the opportunity that this sort of language presents.
Now, we know that Republicans, if you remember at the RNC, brought a union bond.
up to speak at the convention, which is an unusual thing at a Republican convention.
And this was supposed to be a sort of like reaching across the aisles sort of moment.
And they were making a play for union votes, which is fine.
I mean, if you can get union members to vote for you, then absolutely.
You should get them to vote for you.
Everyone's vote, you know, you'll take any vote you can get.
but rather than simply pandering,
why not use this as an opportunity
to make an overture
to these union members?
Like, if you're Donald Trump,
why not come out and say,
hey, if you're in a union and you're white,
your own union leaders don't want you in the club.
You just heard them say that.
They hate you for the color of your skin.
Well, come vote for me,
and I'll fight against this kind of evil anti-white racism.
Why not say that?
What do you have to lose in saying that explicitly?
Which is not the same thing.
I mean, coming out and saying,
oh, these union leaders are radical leftists.
Yeah, they are, but that's not specific enough.
I think very specifically saying,
hey, she wants to kick white people out.
This is like the Great Replacement.
We know the Great Replacement,
which is happening in the United States General.
it's also happening institutionally at the institutional level.
And it's happening in the unions.
So you don't lose anything by just coming out and saying,
this is anti-white racism.
It's evil. It's a terrible thing.
Racism in all of its forms should be condemned.
I'm the only, if this is Donald Trump, you're saying,
I'm the only candidate who is willing to condemn racism in all of its forms.
Has Kamala Harris ever condemned anti-white racism?
ever in her life? Does she even acknowledge that it exists?
That would be a good question to ask her at the debate.
I mean, it's not going to be asked by the moderators, of course, but there's a question.
Hey, Kamala, does, it, does anti-white racism exist?
Is that a thing? Do you condemn it?
Okay, so a couple of days ago, there was this post on Twitter from somebody who goes by the
name Julie Ray Goldstein.
And it says, and we'll show you on the screen there, but it says, seriously,
AMC theaters? I come to the single showing you have today of the Elliott Page's new film
close to you within a 20 mile radius and you find it appropriate to play the only instance
of the trailer for Matt Walsh's movie I've even seen in a theater. Read the mother effin' room.
Meanwhile, you can see in the picture that there's like nobody else in the room, so it's a little bit
hard to read it. That's maybe the first problem. But yes, apparently the trailer for my film
is playing in front of Elliot Page's new trans drama called Close to You.
And this has upset some of the audience members.
Not a lot of audience.
It hasn't upset very many audience members because there aren't very many audience members,
but it has upset a few of them.
And there were other tweets responding to this from other people who were in that showing
or maybe in different showings, I don't know, complaining about the same thing.
Another guy posted, me and my boyfriend were in this very screening and had the same reaction.
skull emoji
so these people are upset
that my film is being advertised
in front of Elliot Page's film
but I personally think this is a wonderful thing
and I don't know how Elliot Page feels about it
I'm not really sure but I'm thrilled by it
we're both on our own
personal journeys of self-discovery
we've both made films that are raw and honest
and I think devastatingly emotional.
We're both very vulnerable right now.
I think we're both very vulnerable and sensitive people.
And in fact, I'd even say that I think that Elliot Page is probably really happy
that our films are tied together in this way.
And again, I don't know.
Maybe that's why the trailer was there.
Maybe Elliot Page requested it.
That could have happened.
I don't know that.
I'm not saying that happened.
But to me, it seems within the realm of possibility that's possible that Elliot Page is the one who requested it.
Saw the trailer and said, this looks fantastic.
I got put this in front of my movie.
I don't know.
I don't know if that's how it works.
I just don't know.
But that's my best guess.
So could there be some kind of collaboration between the two of us in the future?
Maybe.
You know, we're both, we're fellow truth seekers.
fellow travelers,
fellow movie stars, frankly,
we have a lot in common.
And hey, we're both fellow men, right?
So anyway, I'm very proud of this.
Very proud to be unofficially partnered with Elliot Page.
In fact, well, I don't want to give anything away.
I'm not going to give any spoilers way.
I didn't know.
I wasn't planning on bringing this up.
But I will say that you may remember back when Elliot Page was Ellen Page,
that very powerful moment on Colbert's show back in 2019.
condemning the vicious hate crime assault of Jesse Smolet.
Well, in our film, there's a scene where we deal with that incident in, I think,
I think a very powerful way.
And again, a very emotional, for me, it was very emotional,
and you'll see it was a very emotional scene to shoot.
And so that's all I'm going to say about that, but that's another tie, I guess.
It's kind of, I don't know, it was meant to be.
So maybe we'll reach out to Elliot Page.
see if we'll work out some kind of cross-promotion thing for our films, you know, I don't know.
Sky's a limit at this point.
And so just wonderful stuff.
Really, really great.
Let's see.
This is from BBC.
BBC.com.
Extreme misogyny will be treated as a form of extremism under new government plans, the home office has said.
Yvette Cooper, the Home Secretary, has ordered a review of the UK's counterterrorism strategy to determine how best
to tackle threats posed by harmful ideologies.
The analysis will look at hatred of women
as one of the ideological trends
that the government says is gaining traction.
Ms. Cooper said that there has been a rise in extremism,
both online and on our streets,
that frays the very fabric of our communities
and our democracy.
The review will look at the rise of Islamist
and far-right extremism in the UK,
as well as wider ideological trends,
including extreme misogyny or beliefs
which fit into broader categories,
such as violence.
We'll also look at the causes and conduct
of the radicalization of young people.
people. So extreme misogyny is now on their, is now in their crosshairs of things to
deal with in combat. The interesting thing here is that I agree with, I agree with one of the claims
being made, actually. I agree that hatred of women is probably on the rise. Now, I don't think
that's something the government needs to deal with. I don't think that saying hateful things
about women makes you a terrorist or an extremist who should be arrested. I don't think that speech
should be, along these lines should be punished by the state. But are there more people today
who hate women and are vocalizing that hatred? Probably, I think that's probably true. But that's
only half the picture. The other half is that hatred of men is also on the rise. Many women,
in turn hate men.
There are women haters
and there are men haters. And anecdotally
at least, they seem
to be more numerous, both groups,
and more vocal, than they
have been in the past.
And that's, I mean, these things
are really impossible to actually measure in any
kind of objective, reliable way.
So who really knows?
But I would at least personally,
from my vantage point, agree with that
kind of starting, with that claim,
with that one,
single claim. But although again, I don't agree with anything that they're trying to do about it,
but the basic claim I can see. Why is that? Like, why is that happening? Is it because of Andrew
Tate or whoever? No. It is because of an intentional decades-long effort by all of our
major societal institutions, both in the UK and here in this country, in the West, generally,
to deliberately cause this division and this suspicion and this resentment between the sexes.
This is the fruit of those efforts, efforts to drive a wedge between the sexes,
to destroy the nuclear family, to undermine and destroy the sacrament of marriage.
If you have a healthy society where men and women are meeting each other
and typically historically meeting each other as young adults,
rather than, you know, when they're 40 or whatever,
and then they're getting married and they have kids,
which is how it's supposed to work,
then you will not have nearly as much of this resentment
and this hatred between the sexes.
I'm not saying you have none of it,
but you won't have nearly as much of it.
Like, it's not a surprise that the majority of the woman hating stuff
comes from men who are not married.
So when you see something on Twitter
from someone posting something,
And they clearly do hate women.
And even that, it's like,
there are a lot of things you can say
where you'll be accused of hating women for saying it.
Like, if you say you shouldn't kill your baby,
the left will call you a woman hater for that.
That's absurd.
But it's like, we all know.
If you spend any time on Twitter,
you're going to see comments from accounts
that are expressing actual disdain for women generally.
That is a thing.
And I think if you were to do it,
a poll of all those accounts, you would find that probably almost all of them are unmarried young men.
And then on the other end of it, the majority of man-hating comes from bitter feminists who are also not married.
So getting married, I think that what that tells you is that it generally causes you to form an appreciation for the other sex.
So as much as I'm accused of being a misogynist or whatever else, the truth is I don't hate women, obviously.
I have a wife.
I have daughters.
And so I can see for myself the beauty and happiness that women bring into your life.
And women who are happily married to men see the same thing with men.
And so they are unlikely to become man-hating harpies because they have a husband that they love and respect.
But when you tear that apart, when you take that away, when you take away marriage, which is a forum where members of the opposite sexes can come to understand each other in a very intimate way, you take that away.
And it's no big shock that you're left with resentment and suspicion and bitterness between them.
Because also without marriage, you know, if someone's not getting married, it means either that they are,
really having no romantic interactions with the opposite sex at all,
which means that they're kind of on an island,
and that alone is going to breed a lot of resentment.
Or if they're not married and they are having, you know,
romantic relationships, I don't even want to call them relationships,
because often, you know, if they're hooking up, let's say,
with the opposite sex and they're not married,
well, yeah, then they are having, if you want to,
call it intimate, you know, experiences with the opposite sex, but in a way that is very self-centered.
And so they are conditioning themselves to use the opposite sex for their own sexual gratification
and nothing more. You have men and women conditioning themselves who have already been
conditioned to use the opposite sex as essentially nothing more than like a glorified
masturbatory aid. And again,
No surprise that when you've got a lot of that going on in your culture,
you also have men and women who don't respect each other.
And if they don't respect each other,
they're going to come to hate each other, blame each other,
and all of that.
And mostly, again, not really understand each other.
And I've commented on this many times,
but this is the most glaring thing that I notice from the feminists,
from the man-hating feminists,
who've gone on and on and on about all the reasons they hate men,
men. And when they're talking about men, it's like, I don't even recognize as a man myself,
I don't know what you're talking about. They have all these ideas about men and how men act and
that just bear no resemblance to how men actually are. They don't know anything about,
obviously, our strengths, our positive points. And they don't even really understand our weaknesses
and our negative points and our flaws. They just don't understand.
understand men.
So when I hear these bitter feminists going on and on,
it's always the same question.
Have you ever even met a man?
What are you talking about?
And the answer is no, not really.
I mean, they've met men, they've been around men,
but they don't really have any, they're not married,
they haven't had the experience of actually being bonded to a man,
in a faithful marriage committed to him
and in that context
actually coming to understand
who that individual man is
but then by extension
understanding more about who men are generally
and then the same thing happens in the reverse
with women
but that's not going on
and so that's why you end up with a lot of this sort of thing
okay I wanted to play this clip for you
just because I think it's really good.
Charlie Kirk recently explained at an event
why America is a Christian nation.
This is something, this is a point
that conservatives have made rightly and importantly
many times.
I think often when you hear it explained,
it's not explained very well.
But this is one of the best
and most succinct explanations
and defenses of the notion that America is a Christian nation
that I've ever heard, honestly.
Let's listen to it.
Our country was taught on common law
because the declaration only refers to God four times
and the Constitution doesn't refer to God at all
and it only articulates the structure of government.
So first of all, remember that we were a collection of states and colonies
and you need to read the state constitutions before anything else.
13 out 13 required a declaration of faith.
9 out of 13 required you to be a Protestant, except Maryland,
Catholic, which still required a declaration of faith.
Every single one of the original state constitutions, Pennsylvania included, they had, I profess
Lord and Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior in the original state constitutions.
Secondly, 55 to the, 56 of the original signers of the Declaration were Bible-believing
church attending Christians.
You asked about common law.
So common law is inherited from Blackstone, who was Christian.
A common law is an outgrowth of the scriptures.
So let's go to three principles of common law.
Presumption of innocence.
Due process.
And jury of your peers.
All three are biblical principles.
So, and all wrapped into the ultimate biblical principle that you shall not favor justice
if you are rich or a poor, which is in Leviticus 19, right before, the most famous part of
Leviticus 19, which is that you should love your neighbors yourself.
But before that is that in the administration of justice, you shall not favor the rich or the poor,
which is the idea of blind justice.
We get that in the West, which is incorporated also in the New Testament ideal, neither slave nor Greek nor Jew,
you are all one in Jesus Christ, which is the idea of human equality.
These are all biblical ideas.
They're not enlightenment ideas.
But more importantly than that, they say that God was only mentioned four times in the Declaration of Independence.
Well, that's a big deal.
Okay.
Laws of Nature and Nature's God.
The last paragraph of the Declaration reads as a prayer.
It says, we appeal to the Supreme Judge of the Universe.
Who's the Judge of the Universe?
Jesus Christ, it says in Revelation that Jesus will judge the earth on his throne.
So in the Declaration, they were praying to Christ our Lord as a prayer very specifically.
Thirdly, as I set on stage yesterday, Deuteronomy was by far.
the most quoted book, religious or non-religious, in the time of the founding when they were
putting together Constitution, more than John Locke, more than Montesquieu, more than Blackstone.
So the Book of Deuteronomy, which talked about laws, customs, traditions. It was Moses'
farewell address, as he's about to say goodbye, say, hey, good luck in Canaan, guys, here's how
you should set up your form of government. But finally and most importantly, let's look at actually
what the founders said. John Adams seamlessly said the Constitution was only written for a moral,
religious people, it was wholly and adequate for the people of any other. The body politic of America
was so Christian and was so Protestant that our form and structure of government was built
for the people that believed in Christ our Lord. One of the reasons we're living through a constitutional
crisis is that we no longer have a Christian nation, but we have a Christian form of government,
and they're incompatible. So you cannot have liberty if you do not have a Christian population.
Not a lot to add to that. I think he summed it up very well. And that's that's not easy to do, by the way.
to tackle a subject like that.
It's a big subject.
Explaining why America is a Christian nation
and explaining it historically
and doing it about two and a half minutes.
It takes a lot of skill.
So a lot of credit to Charlie on that one.
And it is an absolutely critical point.
One that the left
won't accept, cannot accept.
But it's just a fact
that this country was built by Christians and based in the Christian faith.
And if you break it down, any attempt to separate Christian faith from this country
and from the system of government that we have in this country, it always breaks down into
incoherence.
That's why I always talk about even this notion of human rights.
Because usually the left will say, well, we don't need any of that anymore.
You don't need to be Christian.
We don't need any of that.
All that matters is that we have rights as human beings and the government is supposed to protect
our rights.
But that is also, that is a doctrinal statement.
That's a statement of faith.
what else could it be
when you're talking about your human rights
you're not
that's not something you're observing
that's not a scientific statement
is it
like you can't use science
to prove that human rights exist
science has nothing to say about human rights
one way or another
science can't disprove them can't prove them
human rights are just irrelevant
science can tell you a lot about a person
biologically
you know anatomically
but whether or not that person has this mystical idea of rights, science has nothing to say.
So it's not a scientific concept.
It's not in that sense an objective physical concept.
It's not something you can objectively observe in the physical world.
It's a belief.
And it's a belief that is grounded at the most fundamental level in faith and in belief that is grounded at the most fundamental level in faith
and in belief in God.
I mean, the whole idea is endowed by the creator.
We have human rights because we are made by God.
And with that comes a certain dignity
because we were made in the image of God.
But you take God out of that, then who cares about your rights?
And then you're left with these absurd notions
of social contracts and all these kinds of things.
But all that breaks down, ultimately.
If the rights don't come from God, then where do they come from?
And of course, the problem is if you say, well, they come from the government.
Okay, but then you can't complain.
You can't complain when the government takes them away.
If they come from the government, then the government can never infringe on your rights,
because that's where they come from.
The government decides if you have the right or not.
That means if the government did decide tomorrow that women can't vote anymore,
then it wouldn't make any sense for women to complain about that.
You can't say, oh, I have the right to vote.
No, you don't.
you don't have that right?
What do you mean you have the right to vote?
The law was passed.
Now you don't have the right anymore.
What are you complaining about?
So that's why you don't want to say rights come from God.
If you try to go to some more abstract idea of a social contract or whatever, it still doesn't work.
Because first of all, who signed that contract?
I don't know what you're talking about.
I didn't consent to any.
I don't know what contract you're referring to.
I didn't sign one.
But also that would mean that if society generally gets together and says, okay, we're not going to give rights to this particular group anymore.
Then again, you can't complain.
There was a time when the social contract said that black Americans basically don't have rights.
That was society generally once agreed upon that.
And if you're saying, yeah, well, society says that and the government says that, but it's wrong.
And these people should have rights.
Well, then you're appealing to something above society, above the government.
And what is that?
If you're approaching it from a secular perspective, there's nothing else.
above them is just like the ether.
It's just nothingness.
There's nothing there above them.
So anytime you talk about human rights,
you are making a religious,
you are making a statement of religious faith.
And if you have no religious faith
and you're still talking about human rights,
well, then you're just babbling.
It doesn't mean anything.
So that was a less succinct way
of basically restating what Charlie already said.
So, you know, my fishing trips often involve
spending extended periods on a boat.
which can lead to feelings of queasiness,
especially when the waters are choppy.
I found that using relief ban significantly enhances
my experience on the water.
Relief band has helped keep the nausea at bay,
allowing me to focus entirely on the thrill of fishing,
but it's not every day that you're on a boat
and get seasick. Relief ban treats more than just that.
It can help car sick kids in the back seat,
parents are suffering for motion sickness
and amusement park, and even chemotherapy patients.
Originally developed for use in hospitals,
relief band gently stimulates the underside of the wrist
to minimize feelings.
of nausea without any drugs or side effects.
I found that it's better to have a relief ban and not need it than to need it and not have
it.
That's for sure.

If you've already visited M-R-R-R-R-R-C-com and grabbed your tickets
for September 13th, then thank you.
Or, you know, you could even go back and grab more tickets.
But I'm hearing from some of you that your local theater isn't showing,
MIRA, says the Daily Wire's first theatrical release yet.
Here's how we change that.
Every ticket sold right now helps add more theaters nationwide.
Think of it as the free market actually working, which is always a wonderful thing.
Wait until you see what we've uncovered about the weird world of DEI
and what they really think about you in America.
The response to this movie so far has been phenomenal.
But we're just getting started.
If Amiracist is playing at a theater near you, head to MIRCICS.com and buy your advance tickets today.
Let's get this movie into every theater across the country by September 13th.
Now let's get to our daily cancellation.
I wrote a little song to remind you, Choice Hotels, get you more of the experiences you value.
The Can Beer Hotels Got It All.
A rooftop ball, have a ball.
Bring a date, your squad, or even your mom.
Book direct at Choiceotels.com.
For our daily cancellation today, we must cancel someone for reasons that will become extremely obvious the moment that I play the video of this person.
In fact, you could watch the video on mute for two seconds, and you would understand why this cancellation was necessary.
Cancellation is so self-evident that there isn't much to say in explaining it, which is a problem for a segment that requires me to say stuff.
But, you know, we'll try to get through it anyway.
The clip in question comes from a school board meeting in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
And for a little background, here's the local ABC affiliate.
A Wisconsin community clashed last week over its school board's hesitation to adopt new Title IX rules.
School leaders across the country are grappling with the Biden administration's new Title IX regulations.
The regulations which went to affect this month brought in the federal civil rights law to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in all public education institutions.
The updated rules also prohibits school districts from creating blanket policies banning students from using bathrooms based on gender identity.
The Oshkosh Area Board of Education decided in a three-to-three vote last month not to adopt.
the new regulations. However, community members on Wednesday clashed over the board's decision
pointing to a risk of losing federal funding. So in other words, the Biden administration is trying
to impose radical gender ideology onto every school system in the country by Fiat, requiring that
girls' bathrooms and sports teams be opened up to boys, etc. The school board has declined to go
along with that, which has greatly upset the local LGBT activists. And one of those activists is named
Kora Novi, president of Oshkosh Pride. Novi identifies as a
woman and is dutifully referred to with female pronouns in this local news article I just read.
But rather than read what he has to say, the audio and visual experience are going to be much
more enlightening, I think. So if you're only listening to the audio podcast, you will not get
the full experience, which may be for the best, but here it is.
Why is this such a roadblock? Why is it, why have we spent? And,
hour discussing this, especially you say you care about the students, but half of you are not sure what gender is.
Especially transgender. I know the lawyer said transsexual earlier, that's not the correct term.
It's transgender. I'm a transgender woman. My pronouns are she hurt? And I will only accept those pronouns.
I will not be addressed any other way. And in the workspace, I have, I'm protected by that. Our students should be too.
when they don't, they're not over 18, don't have a voice. So I'm just imploring you to go beyond what,
just really consider, what is this fight really about? Why is it such entrenched? I know we hear a lot
about religious liberty and quite honestly. I grew up in Christian education all through college.
I don't remember any of my doctrinal classes mentioning only male and female.
And that's the way it should be.
If you feel it is, awesome, good.
You get to believe that.
You don't get to impose those beliefs on anybody else.
And that's actually what religious liberty is,
is that your right to believe that is protected.
But the other person that identifies as something else is also right to be protected.
So I guess I'm here to say is, you know, with Oshkosh pride,
we're paying attention.
And we're going to be involved in this conversation.
if it keeps on going. But we've spent an hour on this conversation when clearly there are other
issues on this agenda. There are other issues that we need to be doing for students in the area.
Thank you.
Now, some people are having fun with this and this individual, but I have to say that at first
I was really sad to see that Newman from Seinfeld had fallen on such hard times.
And then I was relieved to find out that it's not Newman.
And there was someone online who reacted to this clip, actually,
saying that they love this guy's work as the villain in the Dune movies.
And I found that comment to be extremely offensive from that person.
So I'm not going to repeat it here.
The point is that this individual is not Newman or the evil floating guy from Dune.
He also isn't Ursula from The Little Mermaid.
I just want to be clear about that.
So I want to head that off of the past for anyone, any rumors that might start about that.
So please don't go around saying that or any of those things because it's really highly offensive.
Let's move on from the looks and focus on what he's saying.
I think there are three points that he makes that might be worth briefly responding to.
Well, actually, there's four, because the first one is that he took doctrinal classes on theology,
and he doesn't remember anything being said about how God has only made people male and female.
Well, did your theology classes cover the first chapter of the book of Genesis?
is the first chapter of the book.
Did your theology class skip that?
So there's that.
But he really begins by accusing the school board of not knowing what gender is.
Now, admittedly, he's kind of right.
They probably don't know what it is.
I don't either.
Nobody does.
Nobody knows what the word gender means when it is used by LGBT activists like himself.
So when he uses the word, nobody knows what he means by it.
Because gender in their universe is an undefinable,
hazy abstraction. It is a concept distinct from biological sex, but also basically the same as
biological sex. Nobody can define that because it's a nonsensical gibberish. This guy himself doesn't know
what he means by the word gender when he uses it. Second, he says that he will only accept
female pronouns, which I thought was interesting. It's also fine. That's totally fine. He can choose
not to accept biologically and grammatically
correct pronouns.
He could choose not to accept
he, him in the same way that
I might say that I don't accept that I'm
currently sitting in a chair, in a room,
or I don't accept that I'm living on planet
Earth and that we're orbiting the sun and that we're
in a solar system situated within
the Milky Way galaxy. I might
not accept any of that. I might not approve
of it. I might not like it.
I might not welcome it
or regard it in a positive way.
In that sense,
I might not accept these basic facts or any number of other facts, but there's still basic facts.
You can refuse to accept reality, but reality still exists.
So the proper response to a man who says that he will not accept male pronouns is to say,
okay, that's fine.
I'm still going to call you by male pronouns because you're a male.
Whether you accept them or not is irrelevant.
It's not like an offer that I'm making you.
I'm not making you an offer that you can say, I don't accept that.
The pronoun is a label used by other.
people to describe you based on our perception of your biological sex.
Yes, it's not about your, our perception.
Actually, we use pronouns for you.
Our perception is what matters.
Your perception doesn't matter at all.
Your perception of your own sex is completely beside the point.
You can feel however you want to feel about it.
We're still going to call you a he because that's what you are.
And finally, he asks why they're spending so much time on this issue, which we always hear
this from these activists.
And it's a good point.
Once again, we've spent way too much time debating whether men are men, whether women are women,
whether boys should go in the girls' bathroom and so on.
Up to about 10 years ago, there was no time spent debating this at all.
It may shock this gentleman to learn that back in the old days, schools didn't dedicate any time
to these sorts of deliberations.
Even when I went to school, wasn't it all that long ago.
There was no time spent on this topic at all.
There were no debates at any school board meetings anywhere over the question.
question of who should use the girls bathroom and who should have access to the girls
to girls sports teams because the answer is right there in the question girls use the girls
bathroom girls have access to girls sports no time was wasted discussing that issue that was
the advantage of living in a time when everyone agreed on at least at least the most basic facts of
life when everyone was living in and recognized and accepted the same fundamental
truths of existence.
It was not a utopia.
We disagreed about a lot of stuff,
but we had a shared reality.
And so it was within that reality
that we argued about all the other stuff we argued about.
It was only when people like this guy
broke away from the shared reality
that it became necessary to spend so much time
talking about the basic facts of reality.
They made the conversation necessary,
and now they complain that we are having the conversation
that they have made necessary.
Just another one of their manipulation tactics,
and manipulation is all they have.
Because they certainly don't have anything
resembling logic, reason, or truth on their side.
And that is why our friend with the purple hair
is today canceled.
I'll do it for the show today.
Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening.
Have a great day. Talk to you tomorrow.
Godspeed.
Republicans or Nazis, you cannot separate yourselves
from the bad white people.
Growing up, I never thought much about race.
Never really seem to matter that much.
At least not to me.
Am I racist?
I would really appreciate it if you love.
I'm trying to learn.
I'm on this journey.
I'm going to sort this out.
I need to go deeper undercover.
They don't say I'm racist.
Joining us now is Matt, certified DEI expert.
Here's my certification.
What you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness.
This is more for you and less for you.
Is America inherently racist?
The word inherent is challenging there.
I want to rename the George Washington Monument to the George Floyd Monument.
America is racist to its bones.
So inherently.
Yeah, this country is a piece of...
White...
Folks, trash.
White supremacy.
White woman.
White boy.
Is there a black person around?
What happened?
Black person right here?
Does he not exist?
Hi, Robin?
Hi.
What's your name?
I'm Matt.
I just had to ask who you are because you have to be careful.
Never be too careful.
They gonna say you racist.
