Today on the Matt Wall Show, New York City is already falling apart and people are dying by the dozens after just one month of Zoran Mamdani. How bad are things going to get? Do we even want to find out? Also, why are leftists furious at the singer Shabuzi for saying that immigrants built the country? And I have some words of advice for young men in the light of another gloried conservative influencer scandal. We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show. It's been a little over a month since a Muslim socialist from Uganda named Zoran Mamdani became the mayor of the largest.

city in the United States. And while a month isn't a lot of time in a normal administration, you have to wonder what the city's many democratic socialists think about the progress so far, or lack thereof. After all, Mamdani wasn't supposed to be like any other mayor. The whole point was that he'd be a revolutionary. He'd take quick, decisive action to replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism, as we remember the now infamous quote. He would disregard the rule of law, tax all the rich people. make everything cost zero dollars magically? Well, unfortunately, for Mamdani, it looks like locals are getting a little restless.

They're not happy with his mother's appearance in the Epstein file. She was mentioned by an Epstein's assistant who said that she attended an afterparty for a film at Jeline Maxwell's house. And they're also angry that Mamdani hasn't shifted oversight of the police department to a civilian board called CCRB, which he promised to do as a way of dismantling the police force and terminating more police officers. for those reasons the other day a mob gathered outside of mom donnie's house already watch well that did take long it's one of the problems with running on a platform to like solve everybody's problems no problem too big or too small make everything free well you get elected and like 90 seconds later everyone's saying hey why why does why do things still cost money why do i still have problems

what's going on here i mean I mean, when you run pretending to be a genie in a lamp that can grant unlimited wishes, this is why you get. So they elected a theater kid, supposedly from the middle of nowhere, who promised to burn everything down and completely transform New York City. A month later, they realized he's a fraudster who has no idea what he's doing and that his life story is a lot less storybook than they had been told. You see, when these people heard Mamdani's, you know, Mamdani reading the speechwriter's line

about the Mexican abuelas and Yemeni. bodega owners and Uzbek nurses and Ethiopian aunties, they were under the impression that Mamdani had something in common with the working class. And now they're finding out that while the Yemeni bodega owners and Trinidadian pimps were earning a living the hard way in the Bronx, Mom Donnie's mother was getting name dropped by Epstein's publicist. That's got to be a tough, confusing realization. And it gets worse when you realize that the buses still aren't free. Mbdani hasn't even done that yet. The whole point of his campaign was to enable every hobo and drug dealer and psychotic murderer

to hop aboard a bus any time they wanted. And yet the buses still cost money. In fact, bus fares have increased since Mabani took office by around 10 cents. Now, the Trump administration says that they're thinking about cutting federal funding to New York if they don't change fares as part of the new transportation bill. So all of a sudden, what seemed to be a very simple, straightforward proposal is turning out to be a lot more complicated. And from the moment Mumdani was elected,

that has raised some questions for New Yorkers. Watch. Excuse me, sir, I have a question. So I saw on the bus that said, and I see the sign that says fair is required. I thought the buses were supposed to be free now because, like, Mom Dani just won. That's a good one. When does that start?

Never going to happen. Never going to happen. I want to say, I appreciate what you do, my guy. All right. Have a good one, my guy. Listen, you are the heart and soul. the backwood of New York. Stay safe.

I don't care if you come off a free. I got you. Del me immense. Thank you, bro. Have a good one. I've been doing free buses before, Mondami. I'm the man. Yes, sir.

All right, you got to run for the next election. I'll vote for you. Have a good one. You know, it's almost like the bus driver who has an actual job and familiarity with the mass transit system knows something that the socialists don't. It's almost like he knows that these free buses, if they were ever actually offered, would inevitably transform into rolling crack houses. It can't go any other way.

But if you look at the comments on that, video, everyone insists that the free buses will indeed arrive. And these will be magic buses, like the magic school bus. They'll be the first mass transit service ever invented in a diverse city that will serve millions of people with no cost and no overcrowding and no overdoses and no random stabbings. But again, the buses still haven't arrived, which has led to some uncomfortable questions about what exactly Mamdani is doing. He certainly doesn't seem to be attending to any of his day-to-day duties. More than a week after a major snowstorm,

trash is piling up everywhere. Here's just some of the images of what that looks like, as you can see here. It's like the 1970s all over again. There's so much garbage at the Post, in one of its better headlines lately, I have to say,

is calling New York the city that never sweeps. And the residents who spoke to the Post aren't especially amused by what they're seeing. One man, a native New Yorker named Josh Tepper, said, quote, it's the most vile thing. I think it's the worst. to New York history. He said Gracie Mansion, where Mamdani lives, looks clean and trash-free while

the rest of the city is a complete disaster. Another man living on the Upper East Side stated that, quote, it's very dirty, it's a little embarrassing. And a third man stated that the situation was very concerning because recycling hadn't been picked up for nearly a week. Meanwhile, the snow is piling up and the buses still aren't running on time. And yet, faced with mobs at the gates and trash piling up in the streets. Mamdani has not convened an emergency meeting with his many emotionally unstable advisors. He hasn't explained where the garbage trucks are.

Instead, Mavani's latest proposal is to enable New Yorkers to sightsee from the observation deck of a tall municipal building in Manhattan. That is his big idea that's going to solve everything. Watch. I'm here at the top of the David Dinkins Municipal Building. This is one of the most magnificent government buildings

in the world. As we begin to celebrate Black History Month, it felt fitting to honor the legacy of our city's first black mayor right here. From up here, you can see everything, from MetLife Stadium all the way to Bushwood. This building belongs to the people of this city, but for too long, most New Yorkers have been shut out of it. That's coming to an end. We're opening the rooftop of the Dinkett Municipal Building to the pumpback. Starting this June, the city will offer guided tours of this extraordinary civic landmark. You'll be able to reserve free tickets online and go up in small groups.

Everything from the way that video is shot to what he's saying makes it abundantly clear that New Yorkers elected a third-rate influencer. He's not going to honor his campaign promises or pick up the trash, but on the bright side, he'll let you stand on the top of this ugly building and look at all the other ugly buildings. And so when you go to him and say, hey, there's trash in the street and the buses aren't running on time. Can you take care of that? well no but do you want to go you see that big building do you want to go to the top of that building and look out do you he's like treating new yorkers like children you know like we have a toddler having a tantrum you redirect they're upset about oh they want a snack oh we're not doing a snack do you want a color i want a cookie well we're not doing cookies but here's do you want a color

in his coloring book that's what mom donnie is dealing with the the residents of the city and just for good measure the building is named after David Dinkins, who oversaw the biggest rise in New York's murder rate in roughly a century. The city had nearly 2,000 murderers in his final year in office compared to around 350 in the last year. See there, you take a look at this chart. The high point of the chart on the far left is when Dinkins was mayor. That's how extraordinarily uniquely incompetent he was.

Dinkins would say things like, if we had a police officer in every other corner, we couldn't stop some of the random violence that goes on. So he just allowed the violence to continue, including a lot of ethnic and racial violence. The city lost hundreds of thousands of jobs. He increased taxes to unsustainable levels. And then Giuliani took over, reversed all of Dinkins policies and arrested criminals. And the city immediately turned around. But in leftist mythology, even though Dinkins was a terrible mayor, he was actually great because he was black.

They'll remove Teddy Roosevelt statue because he was white and effective, but they'll honor Dinkins at every opportunity, not despite the fact that he nearly destroyed New York, but because of that fact. And Mamdani plans to do exactly the same thing. He doesn't care if people die as a result of his policies. His only mission is to dismantle the nerve center of American capitalism, strip it for everything it's worth,

and send our money overseas. And actually, Moundani has already killed people in New York City. He's not doing much in office, but in those rare moments when he chooses to take decisive action, it's resulted in the deaths of actual humans already, just one month into his turn. So take a look at this video from last December. It was uploaded by the outgoing mayor Eric Adams. And if you know anything about Eric Adams, you know that he's pretty checked out as far as ex-mayors go. But let's just say he certainly seems very happy to be a private citizen again. And in December, in his last days in office, Eric Adams felt compelled to speak up about Mamdani's plan to stop law enforcement from sweeping up homeless encampments during the winter and forcing the homeless into institutions.

Well, he knew what would happen if Mamdani actually followed through. Listen. Earlier today, Mayor-elect Zoran Mandani announced that once he takes office on January 1st, he'll stay. stop sweeping homeless encampments across our city. I won't criticize him on every issue, but when a policy harms New Yorkist, I have to speak up. Showing compassion for those sleeping on the streets is not a sweep. It is humane. Ending this action will create a quality of life nightmare.

Just look at cities that allow encampments, and you'll see the damage. worse, leaving people to suffer in the cold isn't just neglectful. It's a disgrace. Throughout the last close to four years, I was adamant about cleaning those encampments because we cannot tolerate a city that turns a blind eye to human suffering. I urge the incoming administration to rethink this, and I urge New Yorkists to raise their voices. So this is a useful distinction, a useful illustration of the distinction between the old Democrats and the leftists who now control the party. Now, the old Democrats were wrong, misguided, and dangerous, but some of them still retained a semblance of understanding about human nature and cause and effect and basic common sense.

And those Democrats are now completely gone. They've been ousted. Eric Adams, of course, was supportive of Trump's immigration policy, which is why Biden's DOJ tried to throw him in prison. you simply can't express any basic fundamental understanding of human nature or common sense and remain a member of the party in good standing. So now there's no one left in the party who understands the truth or will acknowledge the truth about the homeless, among many other things. No one in the party understands or will acknowledge that someone doesn't become homeless without being highly dysfunctional as a human being.

in order to become homeless, you are extremely dysfunctional, often dangerous person, dangerous to yourself and often those around you. In order to be homeless, you have to alienate every person in your life, including your family, which takes a lot of work. Every person who knows you in your life is not helping you anymore. Which might mean, could mean that you're just a victim and you happen to be around. all the worst people in the world. You have the worst family, the worst family. More likely is that this is a dysfunctional, selfish, self-destructive person who has alienated every single person they've ever

known. And that's how they end up on the street. It's just the reality. And now they fail to achieve a basic level of self-sufficiency. These are people who, for their safety, and for the safety of the general public, should not be on the streets. And they shouldn't be placed in taxpayer-provided apartment buildings or hotels either. They should be jailed or they should be institutionalized. You remove them from the street forcefully and permanently. You say, this is not allowed. You cannot just turn our streets into an encampment.

We are not going to let dysfunctional, drug-addled, crazy people to set up camp wherever they want in the city. And, you know, leftists will say, well, not every homeless person is using drugs or committing crimes or psychotic. It's just, you know, 99.9% of them. But even if that were true, it doesn't matter. In a functioning civilized society, public order matters. The sidewalks are for walking. The parks are for enjoying nature and fresh air. They're for families. Lobbys are where you go when you want to enter a building. And when homeless people stink up all those places and make them dangerous to be in for normal people,

they degrade every aspect of civic life. They make everything worse for everybody in every way. They've also demonstrated they aren't really in charge of their own lives, which is why the government, which exists to protect the rights of its citizens, should assume agency over them. They cannot exercise agency over them. They cannot exercise agency over themselves.

They are incapable of it. It's why they're on the street. By definition, if you're sleeping in a tent on the streets or on the sidewalk, you are not capable of exercising basic agency over your own life. And so it should be taken from you. But Mamdani reversed the policy of Eric Adams administration to get these people off the streets during the winter. As the post reported, quote, New York's new mayor, Zoran Mamdani, has barred the NYPD from closing down the ramshackle camps that have been springing up in the neighborhoods across the five boroughs ever since he previewed his policy in December.

No matter how many neighborhood residents call 311 to report a new encampment, the NYPD is now powerless to deal with them, and even New York's strongest are barred from cleaning them up. The sanitation department has orders to remove garbage and human waste, but must leave mattresses, clothing, makeshift cardboard huts, and other items intact. The direct result of the policy, as Mabdani announced from the top of the Dinkins building, is that more than a dozen New Yorkers are now dead. They froze to death because Mamm Dani didn't want to round them up on the theory that, you know, rounding of homeless people is inhumane. And so it's more humane to just let them freeze to death, which is a horrific way to die, by the way.

Here's Mamm Dani with the announcement. A severe cold front continues to bear down on our city. Today is our 11th consecutive day of below freezing weather. And we could very well be in the middle of the longest period of consecutive sub-32 degree weather in our city's entire history. Without temperatures rising above freezing, snow has hardened into blocks of ice. But the greatest danger posed by the sustained cold is to vulnerable New Yorkers who remain exposed, to the elements. As of this morning, 16 of our fellow New Yorkers have passed away outside during this brutal stretch of cold. In 13 of these cases, preliminary findings indicate that

hypothermia played a role, and three of these deaths appear to be overdose deaths. We await final results from the medical examiner's office and will inform New Yorkers as we learn more. Each of these lives lost is a tragedy. My heart was at the family of those mourning their loved once. Now, the dead homeless people range in ages from mid-40s to 90, according to the post. Many of them, as you heard, basically froze to death. So unfortunately, they won't be getting any free tickets to the Dinkins building where they could have observed the trash piles lining the city of New York, which is a real shame. And actually, it's a lot worse than that. Mom Dani is responsible for every single one of these deaths. That is not hyperbole. And he doesn't care in the slightest.

he's not going to change his policy. He's not even going to express regret. That's because Mavdani's goal, like the goal of every leftist who pretends to care about the homeless, is not to improve anyone's life, whether they're homeless or not. His goal is to funnel taxpayer money to left-wing NGOs that claim they'll fix homelessness and then do absolutely nothing other than redirect some of that money back to Democrats. Ending homelessness would cut off one of the major funding sources for Democrat activists. So he wants homelessness to continue. In fact, solving any problem cuts off funding to Democrat activists, so he doesn't want to solve any problem.

He wants them all to get worse, in fact. He wants these people in the street at all time so that he can justify more spending on fake left-wing nonprofits. And if a few hobos die, he genuinely doesn't care. And make no mistake, many, many more people will die as a direct result of Momdani's policies.

It's true during all communist regimes, and it'll be the case in Momdani's as well. Consider to the case of, Jabez, Kakrabordi. He's 22 years old. His family called 911 about a month ago, saying he was an emotional distress. And when officers responded, Jabez produced a kitchen knife and charged at them. So the officers acting in self-defense, shot the guy, put him in the hospital. Clearly a justified shooting. Body camera makes all of that very clear, as we will demonstrate in a second. But the family of the attacker has put out a statement saying they are shocked and outraged by the NYPD's action. apparently the officers were just supposed to, you know, let themselves get stabbed to death.

You know, if a crazy guy wants to stab you, it is your responsibility as police officer to just die. Let yourself be butchered so that this crazy person can live. That's the, that is the, what they're being told. And for his part, Mom Dani has decided to use this case to make an argument that in the future of the police shouldn't be dispatched to calls like this at all. He thinks a counselor or a mental health professional from the Department of Community Safety should go to the scene. So now Mamdani is visiting the attacker and his family in the hospital and implying that they're the victims. And he's giving press conferences about his plan to unleash lunatics like this on the general public. We'll play part of that press conference followed by a body camera footage of the shooting.

Watch. And as you said, I spoke with the Chucker-Worthy family and I visited Javas in the hospital. and there is no family should have to endure this kind of pain. Well, it's the most open and shut, clear-cut case imaginable. The officer obviously did what they had to do. Actually, officers were like, they went, yet again, the officers were more reluctant to shoot than they needed to be. You could see the officer, if you were not watching the video, if you're listening to the, the audio podcast. He's being charged at, like the guy has a knife, is charging at him, very unambiguous.

The officer retreats back into another room, shuts the door to give this guy another chance. And then when the guy opens that door and crosses that barrier and charges again, and this officer's now cornered, he's got nowhere else to go, he opens fire. If you're saying he should not have fired, should not have fired the gun, then what you are saying, it's not an exaggeration. What you are saying is that his responsibility as a police officer was just to be stabbed to death. And that's insane. That's an insane.

If that's your position, you are as insane as the guy with the knife and should be taken as seriously as we take that guy. But, you know, in the eyes of the left, they just lost a foot soldier. They've lost someone who could have stabbed an innocent woman to death on the train one day.

And that really bothers them. They stay up at night thinking of ways to allow more lunatics like this to go free. That's why none of their policies make sense. At least if you're thinking like a rational person and you look at their policies, you think, well, that doesn't make any sense. What do you mean? Why do you want that policy? That's just going to make everything more dangerous and worse. Why would you want to do that? Well, what you don't understand is that when you say it makes everything more dangerous and worse, the left says, yeah, right, good. They're not trying to keep you safe. Their policy ideas are designed to make your city more dangerous and your life more miserable.

But one reporter tried to make sense of the policy anyway. After Mammani was done speaking, the reporter asked a pretty obvious question. If we're going to send emotional support counselors to visit emotionally disturbed people instead of police, what happens when those emotionally disturbed people try to kill the person that you have sent? How exactly are we going to decide whether or not the police should be dispatched when we don't know whether the emotionally disturbed person poses a lethal threat or not? Well, Mamdani had no answer to that question. Watch. I know that you talk about the fact that the police can respond in these instances if there's a weapon. But in this case, there wasn't a knowledge that there would be a weapon.

There was, the charges were that he was breaking glass. And at the last minute when the cops came in, he pulled a knife out in the kitchen. So how do you determine when the police can arrive if the initial call doesn't say he's got a gun, he's got a gun, he's got all. He's got a knife. What do you do? And then if it turns violent, if a person's there without the ability to stop him, what happens? So I think there's a few things to say here. One is a lot of this is exactly the focus of the conversations that we're having internally in developing out this Department of Community Safety. Additionally, I want to make clear that a person experiencing a mental health episode does not always have to be served first or exclusively by a police officer.

It is important for us to have all of the options available, and that's exactly what we're looking at. So in other words, he has no answer to the question. If you send a community safety advocate and the person pulls a knife and charges at them, what then? Because, you know, the answer from the left is, well, the real answer is, oh, I don't care. I mean, the real answer is, well, I guess that person just dies then. I don't give it. That's the real answer. they're not going to say that.

So instead their answer is always going to be something like, well, that should just not happen. What happens when the social worker shows up and the crazy person pulls a knife? Well, that shouldn't happen. Yeah, but it does happen. But it does happen. But it shouldn't.

But it does. This is the disconnect when you're trying to argue with the left about anything. You can't get them into reality. The most they could do is say, well, this thing should be this way, but they're not. Are they? What about in the real world, you morons? What about in the world we actually live in? What about there?

What do we do in that world? Well, this is going to be a theme of the Mamdani administration and of every socials administration like it. Assuming he actually starts attempting to govern instead of shooting influencer videos with his drones. we're going to see a lot more of this. They'll continue to advance leftist agenda items that would be very popular in a classroom at NYU or the Soviet Union, even though these policies have no chance of success in the real world. And even as these agenda items result in human misery and death, they will continue to press on. They'll just vomit out some word salad and continue as if nothing had happened.

The death toll will rise week after week. People will get shanked on the free buses. Social workers will get stabbed and shot as they were spound the calls that law enforcement should have handled. Tourists will get pushed off the new observation deck on the ugly building in Manhattan. Homeless people will die in large numbers every winter, and they'll continue to attack New Yorkers, particularly white women. And in the meantime, if Mamdani's voters continue to feel buyer's remorse, and if they decide to get too unruly, they're not going to be met with social workers, they'll be crushed by the full power of the state. So their only option is to

retreat to the safety of their $5,000 a month, one-bedroom apartments and scroll blue sky as they wonder why exactly, you know, this guy's mother is in the Epstein files. That is the rather bleak future that awaits New York. It's also the future that awaits the rest of this country, unless we see New York as the gigantic warning sign that it is. Even Mondani supporters are starting to realize that now. And the rest of us should pay very close attention to what happens next in New York. We should also bear in mind that the winning strategy in the Cold War was containment. And in the same vein, we should do everything we can to contain democratic socialism to the hellhole that New York City is already becoming. Now let's get to our five headlines.

Looking back at where I started to where I am today, it makes me truly appreciate. appreciate everything that my wife and I have built together.

Stop by and pick up a couple of bags before they're gone. Well, I hate to mention the Grammys again, but I can't control the news cycle. It is what it is. And this story is pretty funny, so bear with me. I think you'll enjoy this one. So Shabuzi, which I'm pretty sure is not his Christian name. I'm pretty sure that's not the name that his parents gave him. Although you never know. I mean, you never know.

So he won a Grammy on Sunday night for Best Country Song or Best Country Duet or something. And he gave an acceptance speech that you would think was very safe. A speech that's not really worth remarking on. a speech that you would think the left would warmly embrace. So if you're not familiar with this fake controversy, listen to this, just this quick clip, it's like 30 seconds. And from the mentality of a leftist, what do you think the problem is here?

Because it's not going to be immediately obvious. Listen. And again, the last thing I want to say, immigrants built this country, literally. actually. So this is for them, for all children of immigrants. This is also for those who came to this country in search a better opportunity to be a part of a nation

that promised freedom for all the unequal opportunity to everyone willing to work for it. Thank you for bringing your culture, your music, your stories, and your traditions here. You give America color. I love y'all so much. Thank you. Okay, so boilerplate, you know, generic liberal PC bumper sticker stuff.

I don't even know why he needed to read it. Why did you have to write that down? This is the standard spiel. It's always funny when these people are like, well, I've written a, I've written a speech. You know, let me read my speech. And then it's all the most generic nonsense you've ever heard. It's like you couldn't just say that.

You needed to read, immigrants built this country. Immigrants are great. I love rainbows. and unicorns. I like things that are happy. You couldn't just say that. You had to write that down and read it.

And so, you know, that's what you'd think. You'd think the left would be happy with that. And, you know, as for the right, we don't really care what a guy named Shaboozy has to say, whether you know who he is or not. Like, if you came to me and told me that someone said something, even if that thing was objectionable, and then I say, well, who said that? That's weird. Who said it? You said, oh, a guy named Shabuzi.

Then I'm going to say, okay, well, whatever. A guy named Shibuzi said that? Okay. So you'd think that'd be the end of it, except that poor Shibuzzi had to issue a statement of clarification, an apology, basically, for that speech. And not because anybody on the right was upset. He had to apologize and clarify because of outrage on the left. Leftists were mad. Leftists were mad at this.

They were mad at what you would think. is just, I mean, it's pandering to them. What are you upset about? From Shibuzi's perspective, he's saying, isn't this what you guys want me to say? I thought, isn't this what we're doing? We're all up here talking about ICE is bad, immigrants are great. Kind of feel bad for Shibuzi.

Never thought I would say that. I feel bad for Shibuzi. But he's saying to himself, like, what do you, I bet when he heard from his public sister, whoever, that, oh, you know, there's outrage. He's like, what? From who? Oh, all the liberals on, what?

you're the one who gave me this thing to read. You said that this is what the liberals wanted me to say. So here's the statement that he published or he put up on social media. First and foremost, I want to express my deep gratitude to everyone who was supported and celebrated my journey as an artist. I also want to acknowledge the conversation surrounding my acceptance speech. To be clear, I know and believe that we, black people, have also built this country. My words were never intended to dismiss that truth. I am both a black man and the son of Nigeria. immigrants, and in the overwhelming moment of winning my first Grammy, my focus was on honoring the sacrifices my parents made by coming to this country to give me and my siblings' opportunities they never had. At the same time, winning this award on the first day of Black History Month and becoming the first black man to win best country duo is Black history. It stands on the foundation laid by generations of black people who fought sacrifice and succeeded long before me. This moment belongs to all of us. So they were mad because he said immigrants built this country and didn't say that black people also built it. That's why he had to clarify. He should

have said, immigrants built this country and also black people. And he didn't say that. And so, that's why he had to issue a clarification. And needless to say, judging by the comments, the statement is still not enough to assuage the anguish that he has caused. All of the, If you read the comments from the, from black Twitter, the pain, the pain that has been caused by Shibuzi not saying black people also built the country. The pain is just, they'll never get, it's, this is not enough. This is not even close to enough. So this is the fantasy land. Speaking of these people living in fantasy lands, this is it.

In their fantasy land, this country was built by two groups. black people and non-white immigrants. You know, he talks about his parents came here from Nigeria. So I want to acknowledge the immigrants who built America, like my parents who came from Nigeria. How did your parents help build a country? Hey, Shabuzi, how exactly did your parents from Nigeria? How did any Nigerian immigrant help build the country?

Can you explain that? How did that happen? So the only people who didn't build it in this bizarro version of American history are white people. The only people who didn't build America are the people. people who built America. That's the dogma here. That's the fantasy you're expected to believe. The only people who did not build America are white people. Every other group, Nigerians built America. Somalians built America somehow. But the only people who didn't are white people of

European ancestry. And just to be clear here, and I've been very clear on this many times, but the opposite is true. The opposite is true. This is a country that was predominantly built by white people, white people of European descent. That is a historical fact. It doesn't matter if you don't like it. It doesn't matter if it hurts your feelings to hear it.

It doesn't matter if it makes your tummy hurt. It's just historical reality. There are other countries in the world you can go, and in those countries, you wouldn't give white people any credit. But this country is different. Okay? And, well, in fact, you would, I mean, a lot of other countries, a lot of the good things in those countries, you do give white people credit because of colonization, which introduced technology that they wouldn't otherwise have. But, you know, that's a separate conversation.

The point is, this country has its own history. And in this country, white people of European descent are predominantly the ones who built it. Now, how can I say that? Well, because almost all of the pioneers, settlers, colonists, founders, inventors, entrepreneurs, and political leaders who made America formed the country and turned it into a world power were white. almost all, almost all of them. I didn't say all, but almost all. Almost all the soldiers who fought and died in our wars, especially over the first 150 years, were white.

I didn't say all, but almost all. Almost all the greatest and most influential Americans in history have been white. I would challenge anyone. This is my challenge. Is anyone who's going to clip this and call me a white supremacist? Oh, no, be the first time I've heard that one. Well, here's my challenge to you. You're not allowed to complain about anything that I'm saying unless you're going to meet this challenge, which you should be able to do if you disagree with my point.

And that is this. I want you to come up with a list of the 50 greatest Americans and come up with a list of the 50 greatest Americans that isn't majority white. So can you write down a list of the 50 greatest Americans? If I'm wrong that white people predominantly built a country, well, okay, then if that's the case, then it would seem to me that if you were to make a list of the 50 Americans who you can reasonably argue or the greatest and most influential, on that list, at least 26 of them, a majority, should be non-white. Can you come up with 26 non-white people who you could reasonably argue belong on, the list of the 50 greatest, the most influential Americans in history. Can you do that?

I challenge anyone to do it. Please do it so we can all have a good laugh. Please show us your list. Do it so we can all see, like, which obviously more influential white people you had to leave off the list. Do it so that we could see that, like, you put Oprah Winfrey on the list, but Thomas Edison isn't, or something like that. Go ahead. And if you were to expand the list to be the top figures in the history of the Americas, which is really what we're talking about, including colonial and pre-colonial periods in the new world, generally. If that's the, if we're expanding it that far, then I think a list of the top 50 would be exclusively white, or very nearly so. And, but, you know, anyone can step up to the plate and try to prove me wrong and say, no, you're wrong. You're wrong.

Here's a list. Here's 26 people, not white, and, you know, are among the top 50 greatest and most influential Americans. I'd love to see it. And yet, in spite of all this, our country now is full of people who think that white people not only weren't the predominant builders of the country, but didn't build it at all. I mean, it's, it is, it's just, it's lunacy. It is total lunacy. And this is, and this is, what we're dealing with. As a happily married man, I have some dating advice.

Speaking of lunacy, in many ways, well, in many ways, this is not really worthy of a headline, but there is actually something important to glean from this video, which I will play.

and which you will no doubt find deeply troubling and grotesque on multiple levels, both aesthetically and in terms of the content of what is being said. So here's a TikTok video that's gone viral where a woman with a lot of facial piercings, and that's an understatement, explains what she will do if ICE ever comes knocking on her door. Listen. I really pray it doesn't get bad enough, but being a mom in America, I had to stop walking for this. I often think that if it gets to the point of knocking on doors, God, and like, to even have these thoughts, it's like I'm literally separating from reality right now. If it comes down to me taking out myself and my kids versus us being taken and harmed by ice, like, God help me, I did not want to do it.

This is not the life I wanted. But that is a very dark thought that I've had. Death would be easier out than for my children to be taken and harmed by these pedophiles. Okay, so this woman who, by my account, has approximately 8 billion facial piercings, says that, I mean, she's pierced parts of her face that I didn't even know you could pierce. I guess you could pierce any part of your body, I suppose. But it's like random piercing just like on her forehead and her cheek. It's like, but anyway, she says that she will take out herself and her kids, i.e. commit a murder suicide, if ICE ever comes knocking on her door. In spite of the fact that she is pretty clearly and tragically an American citizen.

I mean, she's pretty clearly, this is an American citizen, she was almost certainly born here. And for all we know, it's been here for generations and is a legal citizen. and sadly, as much as I would like to think that she's not. So ICE would have no reason to ever come for her. There is, however, now reason for the FBI and local law enforcement and certainly CPS to come, which they must. I'm not saying that as a joke or as a bit or something. CPS needs to step in.

I mean, these children are in danger. That's the first thing. these children are in very real danger. And so if that doesn't get your kids taken away permanently, then I don't know what does. But the other thing we glean from this is that, aside from the fact that has been observed so many times, liberalism is a mental disorder truly is.

These people are deranged. They're unwell. But aside from that, the level of ignorance that we're dealing with, not just stupidity, although there's plenty of that, but ignorance. like these people don't know anything this is what you have to they actually don't know what ice is or what it even does they're out there in the streets protesting and they're making

these tic-toc videos constantly and they're freaking out about it they don't even know what ice is if you were to stop a random protester on the street and ask them what do you out here for oh down with ice what is ice It's, they, they're bad, they do bad things. They do bad things. I mean, they're genuinely clueless. So much of the outrage over ICE is comprised of people who sincerely have no idea what it even is. They think that it's some random federal agency that comes and kidnaps random American citizens for no reason.

They think that ICE is a, is the kidnapping agency. C. Ice stands for. Like, what do they think ICE stands for? What does she think ICE, I-C-E stands for? Like, I don't, I can't even, I'll capture everyone. Is that what they think ICE stands for? I'll capture everyone. So when someone shows up and says they're with ICE, they're saying they're going to capture everyone. Maybe they think it stands for, I'll kidnap everyone, but they think that kidnap starts with a C. Who knows? But this is what they, I mean, these people are stupid beyond all recognition. At least that's true of the cattle of the sheep out on the street and making these TikTok videos.

People driving all this, they know better. You know, they're taking advantage of the ignorance of their foot soldiers. Evil forces in society are manipulating these idiots with the most ridiculous lies imaginable. which isn't to excuse the sheep, not at all. It's just to point out how this works. This is not an excuse. It's your responsibility as an American citizen to not be this stupid and ignorant. But this is how it works.

And this is how unbelievably clueless these morons actually are. Now, the thing that's working in our favor, the thing preventing these people from acting out even more drastically than they already are, The thing, frankly, that will hopefully save that woman's poor children is that while they're stupid and ignorance and, you know, while these are people who are credulous moronic dupes, they're also performative and fake. And they're motivated most of all by a desperate need for attention. You know, this woman threatened to annihilate her whole family for the sake of being dramatic on TikTok and getting attention, which is not to say the threats should not be taken seriously. They should. She should permanently lose custody of her children.

But the, I guess we can say silver lining here is that in most cases, these people are, they're performative, theatrical. And, you know, that's why she really posted. that, as demented as it is. She posted it purely for the comments and the clicks and the likes. She's threatening to commit murder suicide against her entire family, and she's doing it for attention. So, you know, that's the takeaway. And the last takeaway here is that anybody with that many facial piercings should be assumed incompetent and should lose the right to vote or to participate in society in any other capacity. And I am so deadly serious when I'm I say that. I'm not proposing that as a joke. I mean, it's never going to happen, but I sincerely believe

if you show up to the voting booth looking like that, you should not be allowed to vote. And you should be stripped of, you should be disenfranchised. You are not a stable person. You just look at you, you're instable, you're incompetent, and you're very dumb. And you're self-destructive. You're You're self-destructive. You're harming yourself on purpose and you're wearing it on your face. We're going to let a stupid, incompetent, self-destructive person into the voting. We're going to let them help determine the direction of the country. Let me ask you, if someone looking like that sat down in the captain's chair of the plane that you're about to, that's about to take off, would you ever at a million years stay on that plane?

Would you ever at a million years stay on a plane? If as you're boarding, you glance into the cockpit and you see that, you see that pincushion sitting there. You see the guy from what, Hellraiser sitting there. Would you do anything but just immediately turn around? Well, I guess I'm not, wherever I'm going, I guess I'm not going. Never mind. Sorry, not coming home for Christmas. I'm not, no.

So we never would, and yet we're going to let that person help steer the plane of the whole country. That doesn't make any sense. me. Looking good shouldn't feel like a chore, which is why our sponsor, Mizan and Maine revolutionized menswear over a decade ago when they invented the performance fabric dress shirt.

And if you'd rather shop in person, you could find Mizan-M-M-M-Stores in select states. Let's see. All right. So I wasn't sure if I would comment on this.

And normally it's the kind of thing that I don't comment on, but I do feel compelled to say a few things. So over on X right now, there's a new episode of right-wing influencer soap opera happening. There's a new episode of Days of Our Lives, the right-wing influencer edition. And I'm not going to get into all the embarrassing details. as you can go find out about it yourself. It's all over the place. Just a brief overview so you understand what is precipitating what I'm about to say. As the story goes, allegedly, Elijah Schaefer, who's a conservative podcaster and commentator,

influencer guy, is now headed for a divorce. And it was revealed that allegedly he had an affair with a woman named Sarah Stock, who's a conservative influencer, sort of recent, new to the scene, kind of recent. and was herself in a relationship with a man that she eventually married, but before she married and was in relation with the guy, this trist was going on. And I don't know what's true or what isn't. I can't confirm anything, obviously.

There are text messages and audio recordings, which were posted by Milo, Yianapolis. I don't know how he got him. And there are stories of alcohol and drugs on the part of Schaefer, other lurid details, affairs happening at CPAC, which part of the story, you hear often with these soap operas of like conservative conferences turning into drug-fueled orgies and all that so all that stuff is out there it's all it's all going viral not revealing anything

that isn't plastered everywhere already and i have nothing to say about the specifics because i don't know anything i don't know these people i've met eliza a few times i think we did i think we did tim pools showed it together one or two times sarah stock i've mentioned on the show once or twice she did she was in that clip of the um the surrounded episode where i think she she did a good job and um but never met her and i don't know her apparently she worked with elijah or for him he was her boss had in this his conservative media company called the rift it's all very sad feel bad for the family is i feel bad about the whole thing i take no pleasure in any of it i can't imagine how anybody would certainly not here to gloat or gossip pray for everybody involved you know i i

I hope all the damaged lives can be repaired. I just feel compelled to say a few things in the way of advice or words of caution. And really, it's just this. Because anytime I see a married man whose life comes crumbling down because he was off having affairs and partying and doing all that kind of stuff, which, let's be honest, is pretty common. I mean, it's pretty common in general. It's pretty common in the business, in my business. There's a lot of that going on. And a lot of it does happen at conservative conferences like CPAC and all those kinds of events.

That's why I don't have a lot of friends in this business. I have a small group of people that I would consider friends who I know and work with and trust. I have a larger group of acquaintances who I, you know, would sometimes call friends in a sense, but I work with, but I don't, I don't, or I've worked with, or friendly with, I don't really hang out with, though. As for everyone else, I don't, you know, I don't know these people. I don't talk to them. I don't go to the events. If I do go, it's just to give a speech and leave. Never go to the after parties.

I've been to CPAC a couple of times. I mean, we were there last year. We did a podcast from the stage. Not going to like an after party. no on the rare occasion that I do go to any kind of like conservative function usually because I'm speaking or something if there's a party or a cocktail hour or whatever and I and I always want to avoid those

but sometimes especially when I'm speaking they'll go they'll say well we got this cocktail hour ahead of time would you want to go to that and my answer is could I can you just stab me to death instead can you just stab me I'd have How about that? You want me to go to your cocktail hour? How about instead you just stab me in the face to death? Can we do that instead? That's my counter. But sometimes you got to go. It's all part of the thing. So, and I prefer to bring my wife to those kinds of things. Anyway, all that to say, these kinds of scandals are not uncommon in society generally and in the media business especially. So here's what I want to say to the men out there. And this applies to women too. You know, there was there was a woman. involved in this story, allegedly, but I'm a man, and so I want to talk to the men. As a man, if you want to be happy, which who doesn't, as far as I can tell, there are three

things that you should have if you want to be happy. And it's really only three things. So it's actually pretty simple. That's the good news. First of all, you need to have a faith. You know, man cannot be happy without having some sense of ultimate purpose in his life. What's it all for? What does it all mean? The answer can't be nothing. There's no happiness in that. Second, you need a family, a wife and children who you love and who love you.

And third, you need a profession. You need a vocation that is important to you. And I say important to you because that's what I mean. You don't need other people to think that it's important. Everyone has different jobs, different vocations, and you might do something for a living that other people look at and they don't think it's that important or they don't see why you care about it that much.

It doesn't matter. You have to think that what you go out and do every day matters. It doesn't really matter if other people find it important. You have to find it important. If you don't do anything, right, if you aren't pursuing any goal, if you have no vocation, if you have no profession as a man, that is a recipe for misery. That's just pure misery.

And if you do something every day that you don't think matters, that doesn't even matter to you, that isn't even important to you, then that is also misery. Either one of those things is misery. So if you have a faith, if you have a family, if you have a job, you know, a vocation that matters to you, then you have everything. Like you have all of the ingredients for a happy life. All of the ingredients you could ever need. You don't need any other ingredients.

You don't need to look around and say, I need to add to this. I need more. No, you don't. Stop looking. You won. You got it. Now the goal is to grow in each of those categories. So it's not over.

But you have the loving family. You have faith and you have a profession. You have a job. You care about. You have a vocation. Well, now grow. You grow in faith. You grow in your love and devotion to your family.

You grow in your career and your profession. Whatever it is. And that's all you need for a happy life. And then don't f*** it up. Like, sorry to be crass, but your goal as a man should be to have those things. Faith, family, a job that matters to you. And if you have all that, don't fuck it up. Because so often I see men who have all that, they have it all.

Like, really, you have it all, and they squander it. And women do this too. You know, don't get me, plenty of cases where women have a happy, loving family, a loving spouse is loyal to them. And they go and they ruin it. They ruin it for nothing. Like, for nothing at all. What are you getting out of this?

You go and have an affair or something. It's like, it's destined. It's guaranteed misery. It's guaranteed. You're ruining your life. You're going to regret this forever. You're not going to be happy. You are ruining everything.

Why? So I'm not putting it all on men, but I'm just, I'm talking about men right now, and I think I can more credibly, like, give the ingredients for a happy life for men because I am one. But here's the thing. If you're a man and you have a family, because all that seems obvious enough, although it can't be said enough, if you're a man and you have a family and you have a job, but you crave more excitement, you know, you want more action, you want more excitement, You want more of a challenge.

You want more to do. That's fine. That's good. You should feel that. I feel that. So go and find that excitement, find that risk-taking in your pursuits, in your profession, in your vocation. Whatever that looks like. Don't be reckless.

Don't be stupid. Especially if you have a family, if you have kids. But, you know, men do crave excitement. And what I'm saying is that you should harness that energy into your pursuits. I'm not saying that you get married and her. have kids and all that, and you become this like domesticated eunuch who has no other goals and ambitions and has no desire to like get out there in the world and do something. I'm not saying that at all. You don't want to become that, but you harness that. Like every man needs a mountain

to climb. We all, we all need that. So I'm not saying that a man should have his family and his job and just be content to coast and glide for the rest of his days. No, you need a mountain. You need a challenge. So find that in your profession. Find that in your career. maybe a hobby too, you know, or something like that. Like that can also be an outlet for that kind of masculine drive to challenge yourself, to find excitement. And, you know, for me, I do what I do every day. It's important to me.

Other people sometimes will look at what I do. You just talk for a living. It's frivolous. And that's fine. I think it's important. I care about it. And but the thing that really excites me in my specific, like, career path is, is making movies.

So over the past five years, I've discovered for myself a new challenge, something that I find very exciting. Very difficult, extremely rewarding, and that's where I harness most of my sort of risk-taking, excitement-seeking energy into that. And for you, it will be something different, whatever it is. But here's the crucial point.

as a grown man, you should not be seeking excitement in your personal life, in your social life. You shouldn't be seeking it at parties or bars. You shouldn't be seeking it in the company of other women, most of all. As a grown man, your personal life should be one of peace and contentment and quiet. I mean, as quiet as it can be, I got six kids at home, you know, but spiritually, spiritually quiet. If you want to mix things up, you're feeling bored, take on a new project, pursue a new goal, like try to achieve something. You don't want an exciting personal life full of drama and challenge.

You don't want that. You want a personal life that is peaceful and quiet and stable and reliable, and you know what you're going to get. With people you know and people you love and people you trust. And so some men, this is what I see, they take the wrong path and they end up in the reverse scenario. This is the worst possible world that you could be in. And these are men whose professional lives often are dull and unfulfilling. They're not really pursuing anything meaningful. They're not doing anything that they care about.

But their personal lives are full of drama and intrigue and dysfunction. And when you talk to them, they always have a new problem. They always have a new obstacle. But not the good kind of problem, right? Not the problem that someone who's doing something exciting, doing something important, doing something meaningful. Like, they run into problems in pursuit of that goal. That's one kind of problem to have. But these are people who have personal problems, relationship problems.

These are men with tension and suspense in their personal lives because they have secrets that they're always working to keep hidden. And lies that they're trying to keep straight. right lots of excitement lots of suspense and the wrong kind what you want is a home that is properly ordered that is peaceful and loving that you can come back to after a day spent pursuing whatever your goals are and that's what you want i know for me like the picture of happiness life at its peak for me is when i spend the day working on something very difficult and challenging, but important to me, where the stakes are high, success is not certain. You know, it could, it might not work out, but I, and then I go home and I, and I, and I'm home

with my wife and my kids. I listen to my children tell me about their day and all the things that happen that are objectively less important than what I've been doing. But I listen and I care. And now my mind is focused on something smaller, something closer to home. And, uh, and they're rarely ask me about my day, I find a lot of comfort in that. I find a lot of comforted. I could go, I could be dealing with stuff and I got a lot of things going on and all these sorts of things. And then I come home and say, what's going on with you guys? And they'll unload all their stories. And very rarely do they say, what's going on with you, Dad? And I'm, to me, that is happiness. because I'm home now and that's what that's what matters is that I'm home.

And that's all a man can ask for. So if you don't have that, go find it. Go pursue it. Don't be satisfied until you get it. This is every man's birthright. I mean, this is what every man should have and you should pursue it. But once you have it, keep it. Once you have it, keep it.

Guard it with your life. Go out and, you know, suffer. Sometimes take risks professionally, maybe make some smart gambles on occasion that if they don't pay off may set you back. Again, you got to be smart about it, especially if you have kids. But you should be doing that kind of thing, taking gambles, taking risks. I believe in that. Never take any risks in your personal life. That's where you don't want to be risky.

Never take any risks. Never go in any situation. Put yourself in any situation where it's like, eh. this could get weird. That's the thing. I'm going to go to the after party with her. I'm going to hang out with this woman who I know from why. That's risk.

That's weird. You're putting stuff on the line that should never be on the line. Because that thing you have, your loving family, that is the one thing that you never put on the line. You can put all your chips on the table. Never put those on the table. That's for you. Never put yourself in a position to lose that.

Ever. Ever. So that's the, that's kind of the fundamental mistake I see being made very often. And it's always sad to see. That's my sermon. We'll just end it there for today. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Talk to you tomorrow. Have a great day. Godspeed.

They told you America invented slavery. They told you the Indians were peaceful. They told you colonialism was evil and that Joseph McCarthy was a bad guy. And guess what? They lied. Graphic century generations of American schoolchildren have been taught to hate our history, hate our country, and hate themselves. Time to set the record straight. And since no one else is going to do it, I will.

Who sold us the slaves? What were India and Africa like before Europeans arrived? What caused white flight? Some of the most well-known stories from American history are designed to demoralize you. Trail of Tears, smallpox blanket smith, the red scare, It's all baseless. It's time for a lesson on what they're not teaching in public schools. On the real history of slavery, of colonialism, of the Indians, of America, and the world.
