Early in the afternoon of May 1st of 2023, several passengers on board a New York City subway car thought their lives were about to end.

A 30-year-old career criminal named Jordan Neely, who had been arrested more than 40 times, including for a person. punching a 67-year-old woman on the subway and breaking her nose, had just boarded the train. And as soon as the doors closed, he began threatening the passengers. Multiple eyewitnesses said that Neely threw his jacket across the train, adopted a fighting stance and yelled, someone's going to die today.

That's a quote. Neely added that he would happily kill anyone and take a bullet, saying he was ready to go to Rikers and ready to do life because he wanted to hurt people. About as explicit as you can be. One passenger on the train later told a New York grand jury that Neely's behavior was sickening and, quote, satanic. Another passenger testified that what he experienced was absolutely traumatizing, above and beyond anything he had previously experienced in more than six years riding the subway. He recounted the moment when Neely approached him saying that he thought that he was, quote, going to die.

A mother and her son hid behind a stroller as Neely began lunging towards them coming in within a half a foot. of some passengers, a student commuting to high school said that she prayed that the doors would open so that she could escape. One retiree who rode the subway every day for more than 30 years told the grand jury, quote, I've been riding the subway for many years. I have encountered many things, but nothing that put fear into me like that. Now, what happened next is documented on video. This is a report from shortly after the incident. Watch. Heroism or vigilanteism. The video shows three strap hangers subduing the 30-year-old man after witness Juan Alberto Vasquez says he got on the northbound F-train and began acting aggressively, threatening riders.

Law enforcement sources with knowledge of the case confirm his account, saying, according to a witness, the man began shouting, quote, I want food. I'm not taking no for an answer. I'm ready to go back to jail, and I'll hurt anyone on this train. The man got on the subway car and began to say a somewhat aggressive speech, saying that he was hungry, he was thirsty, and he didn't care about anything, he didn't care about going to jail, that he didn't care that he gets a big life sentence, and it doesn't matter if he died. Vasquez says he was scared and believes others on the train were too. That's when he says a 24-year-old rider came up behind the man and put him in a chokehold,

holding him there on the ground. Two other men standing over them also helped subdue the man. Vasquez says no one thought the man would die even after he went limp. EMS arrived and performed CPR, but he could not be revived. No, in no moment, no, no, nobody... I think no one thought that he was in a risky situation because he was defending himself all the time. All the time he moved. He tried to remove his arm, and then when they had it on his side, he kept kicking.

As you heard, the witnesses didn't think that Jordan Ely was in serious danger. He was fighting back the whole time. Instead, the people on the train justifiably thought that the... their lives were at risk. And so they joined in to help 25-year-old Daniel Penny, a former Marine, subdue the threat. Now, police who responded did not arrest Penny. That didn't happen until more than 10 days later after politicians like AOC and Julie Salazar charged that Neely's death was a public lynching. Pretty much the only prominent politician in New York who didn't go to that extreme was the mayor, Eric Adams. He said that Neely's death made him realize that it's really

important to institutionalize a lot of mentally ill vagrants, which is true. And now, by the way, they've charged Eric Adams with a bunch of crimes because he kept going off script, just in case you're wondering how New York works. Meanwhile, left-wing activists also began terrorizing the subway system, saying that they wouldn't stop until the DEA Alvin Bragg brought charges against Penny. Watch. So his name is Jordan Neely. I don't know if you picked up on that, but yeah, his name is Jordan Neely. So they kneel on the tracks. They prevent a bunch of people from going to where they want to go. And yet, none of these BLM activists are going on trial this week. I mean, it is illegal, by the way, to block a rail track, a train track. That's not only illegal, but very stupid.

But the mob always gets what it wants in New York. So instead this week, jury selection began in the trial of Daniel Penny. Alvin Bragg has charged him with criminally negligent homicide and manslaughter, which could put Penny in prison for up to 15 years. On Monday, BLM was outside the courthouse, and again, they were chanting, no justice, no peace. And when I talked about this case last year, I went into some detail about the media's attempts to paper over Jordan Neely's record. They kept calling him a Michael Jackson impersonator, as if that's why the passengers had subdued him. The implication is that he was moonwalking too much or doing a really bad rendition of man in the mirror. And so, you know, they killed him. I also discussed how.

this episode is being manufactured to create as much racial tension as possible. If Daniel Penny had been black, then nobody would be talking about this case at all. And the charges probably wouldn't have been brought in the first place. What I didn't talk about because we didn't have all the details at the time is what the inevitable prosecution of Daniel Penny was going to actually look like. And now that we have that information, it's safe to say that this is easily the most egregious criminal prosecution in a case of self-defense since the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. In fact, it's significantly worse than the written house trial, in my opinion.

And we all knew this would be a political show trial. What we didn't know is just how flagrant the show trial would be. So I'll start with the prosecution's theory of the case. This is from the New York Post. They report, quote, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office has argued that Penny knew during the encounter that he might kill Neely, even if that was not his intention. They've cited testimony from a Marine trainer who told the grand jury that Marines are taught that chokeholds, which are meant to be non-lethal restraints, can sometimes be fatal. Now, before I pull up the testimony that they're talking about, let's be very clear what's happening here. The prosecution is effectively conceding that when Daniel Penny restrained Jordan Neely, he wasn't trying to kill him. So they've downgraded this to, I guess, an accidental lynching. The prosecution is saying that Daniel Penny should spend 15 years in prison because he supposedly disregarded a risk that chokeholds can sometimes be fatal. And to make that argument, they have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Penny and his fellow pastors weren't experiences. a reasonable fear for their lives during this incident. That's the needle they plan to thread here.

They need to prove that even though the guy was shouting that he's going to kill people, that they had no reason to think that he might kill people. And to put this in context, the typical manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide case in New York looks nothing like this. I mean, the textbook example would be something like, you know, a person gets intoxicated,

drives well over the speed limit, crosses the double yellow line, and kills someone. That's the kind of clearly reckless behavior that the law normally applies to. But in this case, Alvin Bragg wants to imprison Daniel Penny because in direct response to a dangerous vagrant making explicit threats of violence, he performed a defensive maneuver that could potentially be lethal.

Now, of course, literally any kind of physical altercation could be lethal. A punch could be lethal. Shoving somebody could be lethal. If everyone acknowledges that Penny wasn't trying to kill Neely and was just trying to restrain him so he didn't hurt any of the passengers, then what exactly are we doing here?

What are they saying about this particular chokehold that makes it so reckless and so inappropriate that it's criminal? Now, I went and pulled up some of the testimony from the government's expert witnesses on chokeholds. It's contained in the defense motion to dismiss the case, which a judge rejected. The expert's name is Sergeant Kabbaler. Now, again, this is the government's witness and the defense witness. Or rather, this is a government's witness, not the defense witness. and this is what he told the grand jury in this case. The sergeant testified that in the Marines,

the chokold technique that Penny learned is a non-lethal maneuver intended to subdue an aggressor. The sergeant did say that a chokold can be fatal when it's applied, quote, to the full extent. But as the defense's motion outlines, the expert clarified that Penny did not apply the chokold to the full extent. According to the sergeant,

if you want to kill somebody in a chokold, then your best bet is to place more pressure on the arteries by pushing the head forward. You also want to apply pressure to the carteroid arteries using a specific placement of the arm and elbow, but Penny didn't do either of those things. The sergeant testified that Penny's arm did not allow him to, quote, apply a lot of pressure to those carteroid arteries. Instead, Penny placed pressure primarily on the, quote, upper part of the jaw. So here's the key quote, all things considered of where his hand placement is an arm placement, it looks as though he's just holding him.

Additionally, several eyewitnesses testified that they never heard Neely gasping, gagging, or saying he could not breathe. In other words, Daniel Penny performed a maneuver that he was trained to perform as a non-lethal way of subduing threats. It took him several minutes longer than he probably thought it would because Jordan Neely was fighting back and because he had a coat on. But, you know, that's what happened here. And by the way, this is the kind of maneuver that's so common in the military that you could pull up hundreds of videos of chokehold training. And just for example, here's one of them. So I'm going to choke him with my right hand. So this is what I'm going to put around his neck.

I won't choke you out. So when it hurts, you're going to take. And then this hand goes on the back of his head. And then I can't have him with this. You're ready? Good time. Okay. So they're making light of the whole thing, and maybe they shouldn't, but that gives you some idea of how widely taught the technique is.

The expected result is that the person who subdued will quickly recover. And that obviously didn't happen in this case. And from the testimony of the medical examiner so far, we don't know why exactly. The medical examiner indicated that asphyxiation was the cause of death, but from the defensive motion, we don't know if that's actually supported by the evidence. Causation is going to be a big issue in this trial, as in did Daniel Penny actually cause? the death of Jordan Neely. We don't know if Jordan Neely died because of pressure that was applied to the artery or to the windpipe or for some other reason. What we do know is that when someone has to be forcibly restrained by several people for their own protection, there's a risk that something

can go wrong. People die suddenly when they get hit with a taser. Sometimes people die suddenly when they go for a run. Stress is inherently dangerous and physical altercations only compound the risk of somebody dying happens all the time. But that's why it's a bad idea to pick fights with people on the train and threaten to kill people. Even when they're trying to subdue you using a nonviolent technique, things can go wrong. That's a risk that the aggressor assumes not his victims. And it also raises the question of what else was Daniel Penny supposed to do? When you've got a guy on a train who's explicitly threatening to cause harm to him and the other people around him, what do you want?

Are we saying that his legal obligation is to just sit there and wait until Jordan Ely starts killing? people. And if we say no, that no, it's okay to restrain him, how else are you supposed to restrain a fully grown man who is, you know, who is thrashing and being violent? Like, how else are you supposed to do it? And what this testimony from the government's witness underscores, once again, is that this case never should have been brought. No matter what happens, even if Daniel Penny is acquitted, it's still a grotesque miscarriage of justice because a healthy society would have given Penny award and thanked him for his service to the community. Instead, the same prosecutors who tried to jail the leading presidential candidate are now trying to imprison a man who defended a subway car

full of passengers from a raving lunatic. This isn't just happening in New York, by the way. In Chicago, the police board just recommended firing a police officer because he shot someone who drew a gun on him. That's not an exaggeration. They want to fire a police officer because he defended himself against an armed man. Watch. Now recommending that an officer be fired for his actions in the deadly shooting of a man last year. Reginald Clay Jr. killed as he ran from police in the North Laundale neighborhood. Now, body camera video shows him pulling a firearm from his waistband before he was shot. Tonight, the police board recommended that Officer Fernando Ruiz be fired for violating the department's policies on foot pursuits and de-escalation.

Ruiz is still able to request another hearing or arbitration. You know, we hear the BLM activists talk all the time about the shooting deaths of unarmed black men by police. Well, it turns out like it doesn't matter if they're armed or not. The unarmed is irrelevant to the activist. Because even if the guy is armed and pulling a gun, you're still not allowed. Once again, you just have to wait for him to kill you. That is apparently is your obligation. If a black criminal wants to kill you, then your obligation is to just allow it to happen.

That's the implication here. and this is what the destruction of Americans' constitutional rights look like. For millions of people living in places like Chicago, New York, it's happening in real time. The only choice they're offered is to submit to the mob or get crushed by it. This is what Soros-backed prosecutors like Alvin Bragg are doing all over the country. They're implementing mob rule. That's been their goal for several years now. And with the trial of Daniel Penny, we're about to see just how powerful the mob has become.

Both's two days later and the left is still having a meltdown about Donald Trump serving fries for a few minutes at a McDonald's.

So here's AOC at a Kamala campaign event whining about it. Let's watch. Donald Trump putting on a little McDonald's costume because he thinks that's what people do. They're not trying to empathize with us. They are making fun of us. They are making fun of us. Donald Trump thinks that people who work at McDonald's are a joke. Elon Musk thinks that dangling money in front of a working person is a cute thing to do

when the election of our lives is before us. So she condemns Elon Musk for dangling money in front of working people. And if you're not familiar with what she's referring to, actually Elon is giving away a million dollars, a million dollars a day to people who sign his free speech petition. And so I'm pretty sure that working people are more than happy to have a million dollars dangled in front of them. I've never known a working person who would be insulted by being handed a million dollars. I mean, who wouldn't want to be insulted in that way? I would love to be insulted by someone just saying, here's a million dollars. That's a great.

of all the insults, a person can endure. That's certainly one of the better ones. But it isn't insulting at all, of course. And this is the lose-lose situation that, of course, they put people like Elon in. Elon's a greedy billionaire who never helps working people. And then he gives a million dollars a day to working people, and now he's insulting them and dangling money in front of their faces. So he can't win.

And Donald Trump, of course, can't either. He shows up to McDonald's, talks to the employees, is very kind to them, compliments them, learns about their job, shows a real interest in their job. It's one of the, for a lot of people watching the videos of Donald Trump at McDonald's, one of the endearing things about it is that he seems to actually be interested in something as simple as like how the fries are put into the carton. And so he's showing an interest and learning about their job, job tries it out for himself, and now he's insulting them somehow.

or sorry, not them. He's not insulting them, us. AOC repeatedly says that Trump is insulting us. He isn't empathizing with us. He's making fun of us, us, she says. Except that AOC, there's no us here, right? You are a prominent politician. You are a powerful figure in Washington, unfortunately.

You're not a minimum wage worker. You're not a McDonald's employee. You're not working class. and this again is the key difference, one of the many key differences, between Trump and somebody like AOC. Trump actually isn't pretending. He isn't pretending to be working class. He never pretends to be anything other than what he actually is. In fact, I read an interesting thread on Twitter where I can't remember the handle of the person. I don't have it in front of me, but they were pointing out kind of the significance of the fact that they're pointing out the significance of the passage of time.

actually. No, they're pointing out the significance of the fact that Trump always wears suits. And even in those now iconic photos, he's wearing, he kind of looks like a McDonald's manager, like an old school manager at McDonald's, because he's still wearing, he's still wearing his shirt and tie and all that. And work in the fry machine, he's got a shirt and tie on. He wears suits always, everywhere he goes, unless he's golfing. And then other than that, he's always wearing a suit. He never dresses down. This is someone who is a member of the, obviously, upper economic class, upper-class, the top 1% of 1% of 1% of 1% of 1% as a billionaire. And he never pretends otherwise, even in the way he dresses.

He's not pretending. Like he doesn't go out. You don't see him dressing down. He looks like he dresses like a guy that's got a lot of money. And how do working class people respond to him? Well, they love him. It's not a bunch of rich people who are coming out to Trump rallies. No, it's the rich people that are sneering.

at the people that are at the Trump rallies. These are working class people at the Trump rallies. And this is something that AOC just can't understand. She'll never understand. None of these people will understand that AOC, you know, she thinks the only way to relate to the working class is to pretend that you're one of them. She was a bartender 10 years ago,

and we know that because she constantly talks about it. Just like Kamala Harris, the only reason we know that she allegedly worked at McDonald's back in the 70s or the 80s or whenever it supposedly was. Only reason we know that is because she talks about it all the time, or at least now that she's running for, when she started running for president is when she started talking about it. Because to them, this is how you relate, right,

to working class people by pretending that you're, oh yeah, I'm just a bartender. No, you're not a bartender. And it doesn't work because it's, It's not authentic. And people can tell that it's not authentic. And that's what, whether working class or no matter what class you're in economically, people are drawn to authenticity.

They respect it. And so, you know, if you're Donald Trump and you're one of the most famous guys in the world and you're a billionaire, then don't pretend you're not. And he doesn't. And if you're AOC and you're a prominent D.C. stop pretending, oh, he's looking down on us. You're a member of the political elite.

You're one of the most famous politicians in the country. That's what you are. Stop pretending you're not. Let's see. Here's another, I've got a couple other clips somewhere to play. The Harris campaign continues its doomed quest to appeal to men, and their latest attempt is with this video featuring Ben Stiller, because you know that Ben Stiller, he's one of those, when you think about men that other men respect, right?

If I were to go up to any man on the street and say, name the top five men in the world right now who you respect. I think everybody, probably the first name they mention is Ben Stiller. I think it's any guy, they go, oh, well, Ben Stiller, number one, Doug Emhoff, number two. That's your top two right there. And then rounding it out, I think most men would say Andy Cohen, the guy from, what is he? He's a show host on Bravo TV, I think. And that's, I think every guy, that'd be their top three. They go, Andy Cohen, Ben Siller, Doug Emhoff, those are my guys.

Those are the guys that I model my life after. And so it just so happens that those are the three guys who appear in this video for the Kamala campaign. and here they're talking about being girl dads and they're standing in front, we'll play a second, but they're standing in front of signs that say girl dads, which by the way,

this is just a complaint, but I mean, like everything else I'll talk about on the show, it's a complaint. I am also a dad of girls. I have two daughters, and I would never describe myself as a girl dad. This has become, this is a very recent thing, right?

Nobody was saying girl dads 10 years ago, but now it was the last couple of years, you hear the girl dad thing. It's incredibly cringe and lame, okay? You're just a dad, is what you are. You're not a girl dad. You're a dad. So I'm a dad of girls and boys.

What am I going to say? I'm a girl dad and a boy dad. No, I'm just a dad. That covers it. That's all you have to say. You don't have to add girl in front of it. But cringe and lame, nobody does that better. Nobody does cringe and lame better than Kamala Harris.

So that's what you end up with this clip. Let's watch it. About being a girl, dad. I love how much smarter she is than all the guys in the room already. I can tell that she's going to be a powerhouse. She is already at two and a half. My daughter's 22 and a half is a feminist, incredibly strong. and has really just inspired me in so many ways.

I love her. I'm the proud dad of Ella over here. My vote for Kamala is an investment in my daughter's future. I agree, I'm right there with you. When the Dobbs decision came out two plus years ago, I heard from Kamala right away, and then the next person was Ella, she texted me right away, essentially saying,

we need to fight. This is not just an issue for women. This is an issue for men and families. And this is one of the many, many reasons why we've got to elect Comos president. Never in my lifetime did I think that we would be having to fight for this and the fight for our own bodies. And I think it's really important for the men to step up and show that they actually support us. And they're willing to put things on the line to help us. Okay, so they're the girl dads for you.

And it just goes to, like, whenever somebody calls themselves, whenever a man calls himself a girl dad, all I hear is girlie dad. So what you're really saying is you're a girly dad. And so there's are the girly dads over there. And ostensibly, this is, yet again, supposed to be an appeal to men, but it's all about women. And it's very telling that the campaign can't even bring itself to send out a message for dads. Right? They're not trying to mobilize dads or win the votes of dads. They're going for the girl dads specifically.

Those are the only dads that are interested. because everything has to be about women always all the time. I've made this point so many times now, but this is just, it's remarkable. Like, it's kind of remarkable that they, every single time you see something from this campaign where they're highlighting men or speaking to men, it always veers immediately. They can't even put 60 seconds together of a message that's just to men. It always has to go into, well, really, well, hey, men, it's important. that you vote because think of the women.

They just, they can't bring themselves to do it. And of course it never goes the other way. Women are never appealed to with, you never hear that kind of appeal for women, women talking about, you know, how the most important thing in their life is to support the men in their life. You never hear that, at least someone like Democrats, you're never going to hear that kind of, hey women, make your husbands proud by voting for this politician. You'll never hear that message, ever.

It only goes one way. And what is the message here? We've got, so we've got Andy Cohen on the left. He says his two-year-old daughter is smarter than all the men in the room already. And that might be true of that particular room that we saw in the clip. I could believe that. But generally, no. Like, no, Andy, your two-year-old daughter is not smarter than all the guys in the room.

again, unless he's just talking about you, but beyond that, no, which I realize you might say, well, he didn't mean it literally. But once again, can you imagine a dad saying the equivalent about his two-year-old son? But we're used to this kind of thing where a parent says, all my daughter, she's smarter than all the men. Can you imagine? I have a two-year-old, I have a two-year-old son, two of them, twins. So what if I have I have a two-year-old son, two of them, twins? So what if I said, oh man, my two-year-old boys, they're amazing. I can tell, I can already tell they're smarter than all the women in the room already. They're already smarter than all the women.

If I said that, right, it would be seen as the most sexist comment ever made. And yet that's the kind of casual disrespect for men that we get from the Kamala campaign in a video geared towards men. in that video, their message is, hey, you're all dumber than toddlers. That's their message. And then Ben Stiller tells us he's proud of his daughter because she's a feminist. That's the only trait that he mentions is that she's a feminist. The only achievement that he tells us about. And Doug Emhoff chimes in and brings it back to abortion, of course,

because this is what's most important to men like Doug Emhoff. And when you're having sex with the nanny and impresses. igniting the nanny and you're a soulless gutless scumbag like he is, then you could see why abortion is so important to him. But he wants to make sure that his daughter is able to get abortions also. This is the message. We hear basically, you know, our greatest dream for our daughters is that they're able to kill our grandchildren in the womb. That is the message from these pitiful, emasculated cuckolded clowns like the guys in that video. And we're very used to this kind of thing.

We hear this messaging from Democrats all the time. At a certain point, you're desensitized to it. It's sort of you take it for granted. But this is really brutal, evil stuff. When they tell us that they care about abortion rights, quote unquote, because they have daughters. And, yeah, we hear it all the time. But it's what you're saying is that you want to make sure that your daughters are able to kill your grandchildren. You want to make sure that you have no descendants beyond your own.

children. It's just such a twisted evil thing, but it's the kind of casual evil that you get from the Democrat Party. All right. Also, this post-Molennial report, social justice advocate and self-described empower mentor, dear God, empower, E-M-P-O-W-E-R-M-E-N-T-E-U-R is the word she's going with. Self-described Empower Mentor, Angelo Rye, told CNN that white folks need to be held accountable for not showing up to save democracy if Kamala Harris is not elected in November's election. Let's listen to that clip. Speaking of laying this at the feet of black men and honest conversations, former President Obama was back out last night. This is the first time since he was in Pittsburgh and invoked the potential of sexism in his appeal to black men to

support the vice president, Angela. Should there be a course correction? Because there was so much backlash to that framework, was it a mistake for the former president to say what he did or to say it publicly? What was your assessment of what we heard from former President Obama? You know, I think that it's wonderful that President Obama is out hitting the trail for democracy, frankly. And what I think is a mistake is to let white. folks escape the accountability that they must face for not showing up to save democracy themselves. Like they want to get mad at presidential candidates, right? When they don't wear a flag lapel pin or they don't see you pledging allegiance to the flag. That's what they want to get upset about.

Now the face of patriotism to them looks like trying to tear down the Capitol and a terrorist attack on January 6th, 2021. So the responsibility of saving democracy should be on the largest demographic in this country. That is white men, white women. I don't want to see a women's march with pussy hats come January if something doesn't go right. What I want to see is for them to march themselves to the polls, including today. We are in Detroit, Michigan. So first of all, you can tell that they're nervous because they're already lashing out at their voters and calling for accountability. And the election hasn't even happened yet. So it's not a good sign when the recrimination start in October. She says that white people need to be held accountable.

She points the finger back at white people, which, you know, it's actually interesting because I think we played the clip that they're referring to of Obama calling out black men, accusing them of sexism for not supporting Kamala enough. So again, we see the blaming, the scapegoating, and the election hasn't even happened yet. When you're scolding certain groups for not voting for your candidate before the election. It's just a very bad sign. But Obama's lecture to black men has created an interesting dilemma on the left because on the one hand, he's attacking men and calling them sexist. So far, so good. But he singles out black men in particular, which complicates matters. And this is where the left-wing victim pyramid really comes into handy. We've gone over the

system many times. I've made two videos, you know, diving in deep on the, on the, giving tutorial on how the left-wing victim calculus works, you can go check those out. And if you do check them out, you'll see that black men are, in fact, higher on the victim hierarchy than women as a group. But they are not higher than black women in particular. Black women are at the top of the black category on the victim pyramid. The only people higher than black women are trans. And then the highest of all, of course, are black trans.

And that, by the way, it's all very fluid, and that's changing. I think trans, you know, I mean, they probably are still the top of the pyramid, but I might have to do an update one of these days because, you know, I, I, trans are, they haven't had a, you know, it's been a rough couple of years for the trans victims on the pyramid. They just, they're not, you know, they're not being talked about. They're not getting a lot of attention right now on the left. And Kamel Harris and Democrats running for office right now are pretty embarrassed of them. So I think you might say you've got other groups.

I mean, there's always a kicking and clawing and they're scratching and all the different groups are trying to get to the top of that pyramid. And no one stays at the top of it forever. So, you know, I think in the next couple of years, trans may, you know, they may end up farther down the ladder who supplants them. I actually, I think we, and we'll see what happens in the election. That could affect us. but women as a group may end up. There was a time when women as a group were at the top of the victim hierarchy, and we may be getting back to that point.

And that would be quite a comeback story, because women on the left have been, they've been like only just above white men in terms of their victim points. And it would be quite a comeback if they're able to get all the way to the top of the victim hierarchy again. And I don't know. It's very interesting to watch. But anyway, as it stands right now, this is the way it shakes out. Obama's calling out black men as sexist, which means he's accusing them of victimizing a group

that right now is below them on the victim pyramid. And that's impossible, according to the system. Victim groups can never be guilty of victimizing the groups that are below them. That's the way that the equation works. So it seems that Obama has committed kind of an act of heresy here. Now, on the other hand, he is calling them sexist against a woman who is black or, or, you know, at least is not white, a quote unquote woman of color, as they say. And so does that make it orthodox? I would think that it does.

But the CNN commentator, I guess her point is, let's just be safe and go back to crapping on white people and let's just play this thing safe, guys. And I think that's her message. but this is always the interesting dynamics on the left. All right, finally, fascinating story. Fascinating, you know, I don't, well, we talk about science sometimes on the show. You know, I don't like to get too deep into the science conversations because I don't, you know, I don't want to be, I don't want to start talking over the head of my audience. You know, I'm a big science buff myself. And so I always have to, like I say, dumb it down.

I'm not saying that. But I don't want to, at a certain point, it's like people, their eyes start to glaze over. And I realize that. So just a little bit of science here. We won't spend too long on it, but this is a breakthrough. So this is a story from the sun. And the sun reports on a lot of really interesting science topics. So this is a story.

an alien has apparently given its first TV interview. Filmmakers have bizarrely claimed. In crazed moments on screen, a man claiming he had channeled an extraterrestrial proclaimed that humans are DNA experiments created by aliens called the new. Darrell Inka 73 claims that he channels an otherworldly entity named Bashar from the future. after a few seconds of twitching and shaking, Daryl transforms into Bashar and then he transforms into this alien

and this interview was all done for a documentary by a documentary maker named Serena D.C. Who last year probed the existence of alien mummies in Peru. So she's looked into a lot of... Now, I will say that this article does a lot of... really inappropriate editorializing. I mean, right there in the first line,

they say bizarrely crazed, claimed. Right? They say the man claimed, claimed that he was channeling an alien. Now, he doesn't claim that he's channeling an alien. He actually channels the alien. You could see it for yourself.

There's no claim here. This is a fact. It's on camera. So let's play this clip. Here it is. Check this out. I have to tell you, it's been such an incredible journey, and I want to thank you so much for letting me into your life.

Oh, my pleasure. Daryl, and getting to know you. It's been a rabbit hole already. And now we're about to have, oh, I'm about to have an interview with an extraterrestrial. This is a momentous occasion. So I just want to say thank you before we get started. My pleasure.

You'll never know how much this means to me. Oh, I appreciate the opportunity to allow him to share his message. Thank you. Shall I let him come through? Yes. Yes. Give me just a minute. I'll say goodbye.

I'm good. How are you, Bishop? Perfect, thank you. Please, by all means, you may proceed however you wish, but allow us to thank you for the co-creation of this opportunity. to exchange ideas and information with you. The alien is apparently a radio DJ from the 90s, and that seems to be the voice he's using. And I'll tell you this, I believe him.

I believe him. I believe that this is real. I choose to believe. In fact, I would seriously question the judgment and integrity. Frankly, if anyone who is not persuaded by that clip, what more do you need? A lot of you doubting Thomas say that you don't believe in aliens because you haven't seen them. Well, here you go.

Now you have it. Now you've seen it. Now you've seen it for yourself. Let's be honest. Let's be really honest about it. This footage is absolutely decisive. How else do you explain what you just witnessed? Like we saw the guy who was talking normally.

We would agree on that, right? He's talking normally. Just a normal guy going about his everyday life, you would think. And then suddenly he's twitching in a way that is very, it's a very alien kind of, like the twitches. When he turns into the aliens, it's a very alien. If I saw him twitching like that without any context, I would say, oh, he must be channeling an alien because it's a very, it's a very extraterrestrial-esque twitch. And then he starts talking like a cartoon character, which that part was a surprise, I'll admit. But it's unexplained. How else do you explain? It's unexplainable. There's no earthly explanation.

Occam's Razor is a basic, you know, principle of logic. And basically the simplest explanation is the best, normally. And the simplest explanation here is that this guy is channeling an extraterrestrial being from the future. That's the simplest way to explain it. There are other ways. ways that get a lot more complicated. For example, you could say, oh, he's just making it up. He's pretending. Okay. Yeah.

I mean, if we want to get really outlandish, we could start talking about that. But I think it's the simplest ways that it's real. So I'm convinced. And you know what? I'm relieved. I'm relieved that the aliens are apparently so friendly. Almost too friendly, honestly. A little annoying even.

I can't imagine being conquered by aliens who talk like that. we never considered that possibility because in fantasy sci-fi scenarios the aliens that take over the world are always these monstrous hideous scary aliens and we never thought that we would be invaded by intergalactic dorks and so that's that's a twist but also kind of makes sense I mean who would be the ones and who are going to be the aliens on some other planet who figure out how to do this, it's going to be the dorks. Like the dorks of those planets

are going to be the ones who figure it out. And so that's what we are. Pretty amazing. Wow. I need to take a moment to really think more about that and reflect on it.

Let me tell you about a looming threat to our constitutional republic that the mainstream media won't cover. The radical left is plotting a Supreme Court coup. They're not even trying to hide it anymore, folks. These progressive ideologues want to eliminate the court's conservative majority, packing it with their own handpicked justices. It's not court reform. It's a blatant power grab

to get the outcome they want. Here's the frightening part. If one party controls the House, Senate, and presidency come January, they could restructure the court overnight with a simple majority vote and a president's signature. Their plan could become a reality. It's like they're trying to speed run the destruction of our judicial system. We've already seen their playbook, made up ethical attacks on justices, illegal protests at their homes and open threats from so-called representatives. It's Venezuela-style court packing, and it would spell the end of judicial independence and the rule of law as we know it. But hey, who needs checks and balances when you could have a rubber stamp for your radical agenda, right? But here's the hope. The hope is

first liberty, and it's leading the charge to protect the Supreme Court from this radical plan. They're fighting to preserve the legitimacy of the court and separation of powers that safeguards our freedoms. Here's what you need to do. Go to supremecoup.com slash walsh.

Jimmy Kimmel is a rather historic figure in entertainment. His show has been on the air for over 20 years, and yet throughout the entire run, he has never once told a funny joke, which is an unprecedented streak, I think. Sure, other comedy shows have gone decades without pretty. a single funny scene or moment or even line. The Simpsons, for example, hasn't been funny since Bill Clinton's first term in office. S&L went at least 15 years without being funny, but they've ruined the street recently by actually putting out one or two, sometimes even three or four amusing sketches per episode.

They've been doing that for a year or two now, which is pretty remarkable. But what sets Jimmy Kittle live apart is that it has been horrifically unfunny through its whole existence. It didn't fall off like The Simpsons or the office or Seinfeld or South Park. it was never on to begin with. It has been dull and unfunny from the start. And that streak shows no signs of ending, especially considering Kimmel's episode last week that featured this Kamala Harris campaign ad vaguely disguised as a comedy skit. And the bit here is that somebody is insulting Donald Trump. That's the height of comedy, according to Jimmy Kim. The insults don't have to be

clever or witty or actually funny. There doesn't have to be a joke involved. It's a lot. It's As long as the insults are being lobbed at Trump, then they automatically count as funny. And in this case, it is the actor Dave Batista, who is flinging the insults. Let's check it out. Fellas, we got to talk. A lot of men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He's not. We look at him.

He wears more makeup than Dolly Park. He wines like a baby. The guy's afraid of birds. Donald Trump had his daddy pay a doctor to say his will feet hurt so he could dodge the draft Look at that gut Like a garbage bag full of buttermilk. He sells imaginary baseball cards pretending to be a cowboy fireman. Guy's barely strong enough to hold an umbrella.

I mean, look how he drinks water. Like a little pink chickadee. Big pink, pink, pink, pink, big, big ones. Got a dolly partner. partner. He cheats at golf. He creeps around beauty page and dressing rooms. You know that little dance he does? He looks like he's a pair of giraffes. He's moving. He pouts. He throws tantrums. No, get those lights off. He acts like a five-year-old behind the wheel of a truck. He bends over for Putin. His catty are on social media. The middle school bean girl.

The guy needs help walking downhill. Almost there, Grandma. For this November, let's stop kidding ourselves. Donald Trump is afraid of rain, of dogs, of windmill. So you get the idea. Now, there are two problems here. And the first is that Dave Batista is an actor. And before he became an actor, he was a professional wrestler. So he's been pretending to fight for his whole career.

Batista is prolific at make-believe. He's very good at pretending to be a tough guy. Now, it's true that he could certainly beat Trump in an arm wrestling contest. You have an advantage when you take steroids. Not that I would ever accuse a professional wrestler of taking steroids. It's not like literally all of them are. I'm just making a general comment unrelated to the topic at hand. Anyway, Batista has more muscle mass than Donald Trump,

but only one of those guys has actually been shot in the head in real life and then stood up and pumped his fist in the air like a badass. Okay, only one of those guys in real life has stared his own mortality in the face twice and remained totally unfazed by it. Like, shockingly unfazed. Trump is actually doing the real tough guy stuff that Batista pretends to do. Trump was covered in real blood. For Batista in his movies, it's fake blood. Trump had real bullets flying at him.

Batista, on the other hand, has been repeatedly shot by CGI effects. So the guy who's been pretend shot doesn't get to puff out his chest and act manlier than the guy who's been real shot. Okay. That's not how it works. The second problem, and we don't need to, we don't need to, you know, belabor this point very much. But I will say again, is that even if Batista was a real tough guy and not just a pretend one, he still wouldn't be able to play this game with Trump that he's trying to. to play here. Because if you're on the left, you don't get to mock other men as wusses, accuse them of not being man enough, call them women as an insult, which he does in that video,

calls him Grandma. By the end of the video, calls him a little, that's the word he uses. So mocking a man by calling him a woman, you don't get to do that. You don't get to do that. Your ideology precludes that. You are on the side that rejects masculinity. any notion of traditional masculinity, you deny that being tough and strong and stoic has anything to do with being a man. I mean, what if it was true that Trump cries all the time and is weak and effeminate?

I mean, it's not true. Again, this guy was shot in the head and was unfazed. But if it was, according to your ideology, you can't judge him for that. That's perfectly fine. He's just being emotional in touch with his emotions. You should celebrate that.

You deny that being a man has any meaning whatsoever. You deny that the word man, even has a definition to begin with. Hey, Dave Batista, what is a man? I bet you can't answer that question, you wimp. You're playing the tough guy routine when an elementary school biology test

would reduce you to tears. Now, I understand that because you're on the left, you also think that you can change the rules whenever you want. You think that you can spend decades telling us that masculinity is toxic and then turn around and mock Trump for allegedly not being masculine enough,

but it doesn't work that way. You might want it to work way, but it doesn't. Which is why this routine falls flat. It's why every attempt by the left to reclaim masculinity and appeal to men during this election cycle has been met with mockery and scorn. Men aren't falling for it. We aren't buying what you're selling. You've been dumping on us for years. You've tried to feminize society with great success, unfortunately. You're literally trying to turn our sons into girls. And now you want to turn to us and say, yeah, Donald Trump isn't manly, right, fellas? Get a load of this guy. You don't have the right to even

talk about manliness, much less present yourselves as its exemplars. You are an avowed enemy of masculinity. You want to abolish and destroy it. That's your own agenda. You've been very clear about it. On the other hand, Donald Trump not only proved his masculinity by surviving two assassination attempts, but has also never attacked men or masculinity. It's one of the many reasons we prefer him to whoever Democrats trot out, and that's why we're not listening to frauds like Dave Batista It's also why Dave Batista is today canceled. That'll do with the show today. Thanks for watching.
