Starting point is 00:00:00 Today on the Matt Wall Show, a conservative actress is fired by Disney after outrage over her anti-Semitic, quote-unquote, and supposedly offensive posts. But her posts were neither anti-Semitic nor offensive. We'll talk about the real reason she got the acts. Also, five headlines, including the CDC's new endorsement of double masking. And the Biden administration announces plans to get schools back open. Half of the schools, one day a week. Is that enough? And in our daily cancellation, we will discuss the crucial differences between breastfeeding and chest feeding. All of that and much more today on the Matt Wall show. Well, we're about to talk about a company that does not share our values as conservatives, and there are a lot of those companies out.

Starting point is 00:02:04 1877-474-3662 or chat with them online at CharityMobil.com. You'd probably know I'm not a fan of Disney or Star Wars and had never seen the Mandalorian or heard the name Gina Carrano before yesterday. What I learned about Ms. Carrano, though, from reading mainstream media headlines and sifting through some of the tweets under the fire Gina Carano hashtag is that she's a bigot and a psychopath and a transphobe and an anti-Semite and a danger to herself and others. I learned that she has now been booted from her role on the Mandalorian and fired by Disney, a cause for celebration, I'm told, after an Instagram post that became sort of the final straw. That post has been reported by media outlets like USA Today in Chicago Sun Times as straightforwardly anti-Semitic.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Not even like some people claim it's anti-Semitic or some people see it as anti-Semitic, but that it is just simply anti-Semitic. this Gina Krono person, I mean, she seems like a pretty unsavory character. Anti-Semitic posts, transphobic, she bigoted, all these things. Pretty bad. Or she would seem that way to anyone stupid enough to still take the popular narrative at face value. The rest of us will want to do a little bit more research into the topic and form our own judgments. It doesn't take much research to discover that the narrative is, once again, completely and utterly bogus.
Starting point is 00:03:25 So what did the now deleted Instagram post that has been dubbed anti-Semitic by not only the media, but her former employer actually say? I mean, Lucasfilm sent out a statement declaring that Carrano's, quote, social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious beliefs are abhorrent and unacceptable. Abhorrent and unacceptable. Is there any basis for this charge? Well, decide for yourself. The post in question appears to be a screenshot of somebody else. else's post, which Carrano had reposted to her own Instagram. It says, this is what it says. Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers, but by their neighbors, even by children.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Because history is edited, most people today don't realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views? That's it. That was the post. Anti-Semitic? denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities? What? It's the opposite of that, actually. She is comparing our current political environment to Nazi Germany in an unfavorable way.
Starting point is 00:04:38 She's not saying it's good that it's like this. And by the way, if making a Nazi comparison is anti-Semitic, then everyone in the country is a raging anti-Semite. As everyone knows, Nazi comparisons are the most common rhetorical strategy in any debate. they may be way overused and they are and overwrought and they often are but there's nothing shocking or offensive or abhorrent about this one single example of a thing that you can find in a billion other places on the internet and everyone has done it
Starting point is 00:05:09 jews and non-jews alike we have all been guilty apparently at various points of making Nazi analogies in fact as Nazi analogies go this this one gets closer to the truth than most I mean, she's correct that the lead up to any Holocaust level atrocity always involves the dehumanization of a certain group of people. Now, I would say this has already happened in this country to the unborn. Sixty million have been slaughtered because of it. Is it happening to conservatives too? Well, we're not being rounded up and executed, obviously, but her point is simply to show where trends can lead when taken to their most violent extreme.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Now, say what you want about that. but if you say that she's denigrating Jews somehow, then, well, you're lying, straight up. And I hope she has a team of lawyers ready to sue Lucasfilm for this defamation. That is defamation of character. They accused of doing something that she absolutely did not do. It's not even that you can interpret it in that way. You cannot. No literate person could read what she posted and see that as her denigrating Jews.
Starting point is 00:06:15 We could, of course, sit here all day pulling examples of lessons of lessons. making Nazi and Holocaust comparisons. They spent four years doing it relentlessly every day. And Donald Trump never staged any mass executions of any political dissidents. Yet they didn't stop anyone from calling him Hitler. We could even pull examples of other Disney actors on the same show making Nazi comparisons. Pedro Pascal, another actor on The Mandalorian, tweeted in 2018, hashtag, This is America. And you can see it here.
Starting point is 00:06:48 He says, this is America, hashtag, with a picture of Jews in concentration camps in 1944, on top of a picture of the infamous kids in cages in America in 2018. So there's the Nazi comparison. Except that, as far as I can tell, that's not really from 2018. It's from 2010, and it's not from America either. Well, minor details. Oh, and by the way, those kids are also not in a cage. You can tell, if you look at the far left end of the photo there,
Starting point is 00:07:18 that there's a large opening where the kids can come and go. So it's a picture of kids in cages in America in 2018, except it's not from 2018. It's not from America and they're not in a cage. Other than that, I'd say it's correctly labeled. In any case, despite common misconceptions, Trump was not rounding up and executing immigrants. He detained them as Obama did and as Biden is doing right now. and then if they were here illegally, he sent them home. That is not at all even slightly analogous to Nazi Germany.
Starting point is 00:07:52 No part of that is the same. The only similarity is that both involved governments and both involved some form of detainment. So by Pedro's logic, every government then is effectively a Nazi government, including the current one running this country right now. But he wasn't fired for that. The reason has a lot to do with those pronouns that you can see in his bio, which functioned like the lamb's blood on the door signaling for the angel of cancellation to pass over.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Incidentally, that's one of the other offensive things that Carrano did or didn't do. One of the straws before the final one, apparently she refused to put pronouns in her bio. That's really one of the things that made people mad at her, is that she didn't have pronouns in her bio. And then when she finally did, in reference to R2D2, she said that her pronouns were boop, beep, boop, which is pretty funny. But you're not allowed to joke about the sacred pronouns. We must not joke. That is heresy. One of several heretical outbursts from Carrano, whose real sin, whose only sin, as far as the left is concerned, is that she doesn't agree with them.
Starting point is 00:09:03 she has a number of views that do not align with leftism. She expressed those views, and that's why they wanted her destroyed. And ultimately, they got what they wanted. What do we learn from this? Well, nothing, really. I mean, we learned what we already knew, that we live in a time when rigid ideological conformity is demanded. Carrano isn't being shipped off to a death camp, of course, but her case does demonstrate the sort of dehumanization that you do find in our culture. she's being lied about and defamed, and the people doing it know what they're doing, and they don't care.
Starting point is 00:09:41 They can look at that post sheet put up there. They know that's not anti-Semitic, and they also know that they themselves have made exactly that kind of point a million times. But they're defaming her anyway. They honestly believe that anyone who disagrees with them deserves that treatment. You can lie about them and destroy them. It doesn't matter. they do not recognize any kind of moral obligation or standard when dealing with the cultural heretics. You can shut them down, shut them up, cast them out, lie about them. That's the only goal. So ironically, the point Karana was making in her supposedly offensive Instagram post has been aptly illustrated by the outrage response to it.
Starting point is 00:10:25 Now let's get to our five headlines. Very excited to announce today a new sponsor on the show, 40 days, for life. And this is a great organization. I've worked with them in the past. I've been a fan of 40 Days for a very long time. And this is just, this is one of those perfect fits like a glove, 40 Days for Life for the Matt Wall Show. Look, if the state of the culture frustrates you, like it frustrates all of us. We now have politicians lobbying for infanticide, all of these things. We have the Democrats in charge and we know their radical pro-abortion agenda and what's what we can expect of the next four years. But here's the thing. You know where I see real progress is at the
Starting point is 00:11:10 grassroots level in 40 Days for Life. We've talked about this on this show. We've got things going on to the national level. It's hard to control those things, especially with, especially with Democrats in charge. But there's so much we can do on the local level. There's so much that you can do in your own community at the grassroots level. And that's where 40 Days for Life. That's where they specialize. That's where they've done all of their work. Forty Days for Life went from one prayer vigil in front of a Planned Parenthood in Texas to now 1,000 cities in 66 countries. 40 days of prayer, fasting, and law-abiding vigils have saved 18,000 babies from abortion. They've helped 211 abortion workers leave their jobs, and they have closed 107 abortion facilities,
Starting point is 00:11:51 including the Texas location that now serves as the headquarters of 40 days for life. How great is that? They shut down an abortion facility, and now it's their headquarters. Be part of the beginning of the end of abortion by joining one million volunteers and sign up for your location at 40 Days for Life.com. You can also stay updated on the number one pro-life podcast, 40 Days for Life. The largest spring campaign ever is happening from February 17th through March 28th. These guys, they know what they're doing.

Go to work in your neighborhood at 40 Daysfor Life.com. I told you guys, though, I told you guys about Star Wars. I've been saying it for years. I told you Star Wars sucks. We got to move on from Star Wars.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Wars. How often have I said this? And I've been, I hate to be proven. I hate to say I told you so. In fact, well, actually, that's not true. I love saying I told you so. And I'll say it again. I told you so. The Star Wars thing. Now, we don't need to debate the original the original. I think those also are just massively overrated. The acting is not very good. The script leaves a lot to be desired. The ideas in the film are not at all original. It's just sort of like a space, you know, a soap opera in space. But, fine. So, but they were, people have nostalgic attachment to them. And I get that. You grew up watching them and so you have this attachment. I understand. I respect that. But okay, now we can, can we just move on? Can we be done with
Starting point is 00:13:17 Star Wars? Can we move on from it? Can, can society move on? Have we, have we seen enough of this by now? The last arguably decent Star Wars movie was what, like three decades ago? And everything since then has been terrible. And there's not, it's, it's, there wasn't that much there to begin with with the story. There really was never 40 years worth of story in this thing that George Lucas came up with. Because what you hear from people is that, well, the Star Wars universe, there's so many stories to tell in the Star Wars universe. Yeah. Well, you know what? There's a lot of stories to tell in the actual universe. I mean, there's a whole universe out there. You can come up with any other kind of, you want to tell a sci-fi story.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Tell a sci-fi story. It doesn't have to be Star Wars. It doesn't have to exist in the Star Wars universe. Make up your own universe. That's what you can do. It's fantasy. It's sci-fi. You tell your own story.
Starting point is 00:14:18 It doesn't have to be tangentially connected to Star Wars. That's not really related to the Gina Krono thing. But I bring it up anyway. Okay, number one from ABC News. Fit matters when it comes to your mask, protecting you a guy. the virus that caused COVID-19, and layering a well-fitted cloth mask over a surgical mask is likely to prove beneficial, according to new findings released Wednesday by the Centers for Disease Control Prevention. The findings were not expected to lead to new mask recommendations by the CDC.
Starting point is 00:14:48 The public health agency mentions or maintains that everyone aged 2 and older should wear a face covering when outside their home. It also doesn't change the recommendation that primarily medical workers in high-risk environments should rely on N95 masks. But either way, now they are recommending they are telling us that we should wear two masks, or rather they're endorsing the idea of two masks, not officially recommending it, but that will come. I hope by now we can all, we all understand how this works. So originally we're told that you don't need to wear two masks, and then maybe you do, and now it's, yeah, you probably should, but we're not recommending it. And then, you know, in a week or two, it's going to be, yeah, we're recommended. And then
Starting point is 00:15:27 we could two after that, it's you're required to. It's not enough to have one. You need to have two. And I My I will say again My primary argument Against wearing two masks It's not that I don't think it doesn't work It's not it's not any health-based thing
Starting point is 00:15:47 That's not my argument I don't even care about that That's not my point My argument is that it's absurd That it's absurd It's It looks stupid it's undignified.
Starting point is 00:16:04 And that's my entire argument. I think that's what our argument should be. I already see some people making the mistake of, well, let's, no, according to the science, it's not any better. That's not really, if you don't want to wear two masks, is that actually your reason that you just don't think it's effective? Or is it that it's really stupid and it looks dumb and you don't feel like doing it? because I think that that is probably your argument like it's mine and that's good enough. That should be good enough because when you make the argument based on how effective it is, then they could just bring in all their experts and say, nope, you're wrong, it's effective.
Starting point is 00:16:45 And since you have structured your argument that way, well, now I guess you got to wear the two masks. So better to just be honest about it. And I'll say right now, I don't, looking at their numbers, they say, whatever, it's 80, 90%, whatever they say, I don't care. I'm not doing it because I don't want to do it, and it looks stupid. And that is 100% my reason. And that is good enough. Meanwhile, the CDC also released a masking PSA. This is to make the masks look cool and trendy and to get everyone to wear them.
Starting point is 00:17:20 So let's play that now. This is the CDC PSA on masking. Here it is. Oh, it's on. Release the media. Okay, so we've got all of our favorite cinematic characters. is looking at you, kid. And they've all got masks over the case.
Starting point is 00:17:41 And the CDC is saying, if we want to get back to doing what we love to do, we've got to wear the masks and slow the spread. There's Harry Potter, there's Wonder Woman in the mask. Mask up America, it says. But none of them are wearing two masks, though. So I guess we've got to update that PSA with the two masks.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Yeah, I'm just not doing it. That's as simple as that. not wearing the two masks. It's completely ridiculous, so it looks stupid. And also, I would imagine it's very uncomfortable, and I like to be able to breathe. I don't care if they say, well, technically, you could still breathe the two masks,
Starting point is 00:18:22 and it's not restricting your airflow that much. Yeah, it feels uncomfortable. It feels like I can't breathe, and that's good enough for me. That's enough reason for me not to wear it. All right, number two, the Biden administration has plans to get schools back open. They've got a plan in place, and under their plan, here's what their plan is to get schools back open, okay?
Starting point is 00:18:43 In a hundred days, they want to have half of the schools open in America for one day a week in a hundred days. And Jen Pisaki was asked about this at the White House Press Conference yesterday, and here's what she had to say. If I could just follow up with you on comments you made yesterday about school reopenings. You said the goal was from more than 50% of schools to have some teaching. in-person at least one day a week. You said you hoped it would be higher. But why is the administration setting the bar at one day a week? Why not go higher? Well, certainly we are not planning to celebrate at 100 days if we reach that goal. That is our own effort to make our own, set our own markings, set in a bold and ambitious agenda for how we're going to measure ourselves and progress. But
Starting point is 00:19:34 we certainly hope to build from that, even at 100 days. And from there, our objective, the president's objectives, is for all schools to reopen, to stay open, to be open five days a week, for kids to be learning. That's what our focus is on. This is simply a goal for 100 days. So, a lot of schools are already doing that. And for working parents, one day a week doesn't help a whole lot. That's, again, the bar of where we'd like the majority of schools across the country to be, which they're not at this point in time. And we want to build from there. And it really depends. It differs from school district to school district. Part of the reason that there is funding in the American Rescue Plan is to ensure that school districts that don't have the funding they need to ensure they are equipped to reopen to meet that bar and exceed it are able to do exactly that.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Okay, so 100 days, half schools, half the schools open for one day a week. But she says that's just the beginning. We'll start there. Okay, so if it takes 100 days to get half of the schools open for one day a week, how long until all of the schools are open for five days a week? I mean, do the math on that. We've got several years to go, it would seem. And there's no reason to take, there's no reason for this whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:20:53 This is pure cowardice on the part of the Biden administration. They know, I mean, everybody knows now, that there's no reason for the schools to have ever been closed to begin with. the schools that are, oh, there are some schools that are open right now and they're not having massive outbreaks. So we've got all the reasons in the world to just open the schools up. You don't need to, you don't need to taper it. You don't need to, you don't need any complicated plan to do it gradually. Just open up the schools. How do you open them? Open them. Open up the doors and say, hey, kids, come to school. And say to the teachers, hey, come to your jobs.
Starting point is 00:21:28 And if you're not going to do that, we'll fire you. No big loss. We'll find somebody else to do the job. The thing is, a lot of people have lost their jobs, as we know, over the last year. So if there are people who have jobs and are getting paid and are unwilling to do what they're getting paid to do, fantastic. Get rid of them. And there's going to be a whole bunch of people out there who would be more than willing to do that job and can step in. All right. Number three, from IFL science, I'm not going to tell you what IFL stands for. You can look it up. Kids. Well, don't look it up, kids, but IFLScience.com says a study,
Starting point is 00:22:07 looking at the language people use when they're going through breakups, has found that markers of an impending breakup can be seen three months before the breakup occurs. Researchers from the University of Texas at Austin looked at over a million posts from 6,803 Reddit users. I wonder how much money they got,
Starting point is 00:22:25 how much funding did they get for this study. The users were specifically chosen because they had posted on the subreddit breakups. Hmm. Okay. Well, hmm, how do you know? So these researchers, we're trying to find out, you know, people posting on the subreddit breakups. Like, how can you tell that they're about to break up? I don't know. Maybe it's because they're posting on a subreddit called breakups. It's because they're posting and saying that they want to break up. But the article considers no, it's all it says, no, before you think it, the indication that a breakup was coming was not them posting in this particular forum. But the fact that they had posted. posted there as well as on many other areas of Reddit gave researchers the opportunity to see how their breakups affected their use of language. Oh, okay. Still stupid, but okay. The team who published their results in the proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences looked at post before, during,
Starting point is 00:23:16 and after the breakups across two years of posts. They found that language markers indicating a breakup began three months beforehand. Okay, so what are the, this is what actually matters. How do you know, if you're about to deal with a breakup? What are the language markers you can look for? And it says, signs included in increase in i words, we words, and cognitive processing words, whatever that means, and drops an analytic thinking indicating more personal and informal language. So you say I and we a lot, and you don't engage in a lot of great analytic thinking. That's a sign that there's a break up coming. Of course, that applies to like 95% of the country.
Starting point is 00:23:57 So, for instance, in the example, below the study, the words in bold show signs of cognitive processing as well as the abundance of eye words. So here's an example of something someone says, which shows it about the breakup. I'm undecided whether or not to share my story. I need some help because I feel lost, but my story is long and not sure whether it's worth sharing. So that's an example. A lot of cognitive processing, a lot of eye words, and that's how you know the breakup is coming. I think this is all quite silly. I'll tell you the written clue that your relationship is in trouble.
Starting point is 00:24:27 You don't need to get into cognitive processing and I and me words and everything. That's not it. Here's how you know. And I think most people understand this, but in case you don't. If you're getting text messages from your significant other that feature periods, the period we all know is a signal, especially if it's a one word or even one sentence text message with a period, then you know you're in trouble.
Starting point is 00:24:55 You know the breakup is coming. I think we all understand that now. The period is passive-aggressive. And I don't like this. I'm a fan of punctuation, but this is what's happened now. That even me now, when I send a text message to somebody,
Starting point is 00:25:08 and it's one word or one sentence, I don't use the period anymore. I used to do that until I was informed that when you do that, it is always interpreted as the other person thinks you're angry. So that's how you know. So yes, if your girlfriend sent you a text message
Starting point is 00:25:23 with the period, it means that she's going to break up with you. That's what that's what it means. Here's a fun celebrity tweets. The rapper Common quotes Ayanna Presley, and it says, poverty is not naturally occurring. It's a policy choice. Poverty is not naturally occurring.
Starting point is 00:25:39 It is a policy choice. I just wanted to put that up there for you because a lot of people retweeting that, big reaction to that. A lot of people on the left, this is the kind of rhetoric they like. And this is the level of thought that you get from the left now, from the new stars of the left in the Democrat Party. Poverty is not naturally occurring. It's a policy choice. Of course, in reality, right, poverty is like the most naturally occurring thing in the world, at least in relation to the human species. At least societally speaking,
Starting point is 00:26:17 poverty is one of the most naturally occurring things in the world. Before the Industrial Revolution, I don't know the exact number, you can look it up. But, I'm guessing that for the entirety of human civilization up until the industrial revolution, probably well over 90% of the human population, probably well over 90% was in poverty by our standards and by their own. So that's, that is really the natural state for people, is to not have wealth. It's unfortunate, but it's the reality. This, of course, is what this is, this is required, though, on the left. You have to see poverty is a choice.
Starting point is 00:26:55 And that means that, you know, anyone who's in poverty now, they are the victim of somebody. Most likely they're the victim of a rich person. If you are rich, it means that you are, you, the money that you have, you are depriving it. You're depriving someone else of that wealth, wealth just by having. Of course, total nonsense. It's a, it's a nice slogan. You can put it on a bumper sticker. But it is disturbing to think that our lawmakers are actually that stupid.
Starting point is 00:27:25 All right, number five, I've had this in the queue for quite a while, and I want to finally play it for you. The website, LGBTQ Nation, always with the important news, says, quote, a video on Twitter went viral showing one trans lesbian's response to a transphobic trope. Now, trans lesbian, that would be a biological male who's attracted to women, a straight guy, basically. Twitter user Eva uploaded a video that visually and beautifully took on the hateful notion that transgender people are just playing dress up. So, okay, so this is a video that's supposed to destroy anti-trans talking points from a trans lesbian, otherwise known again as a male attracted to females, is a bombshell video destroys all of the anti-trans talking points. And here it is right here. Let's watch. So as a trans woman, I've gotten a lot of strange comments over the years about my body and appearance. And one that always sticks out to me is, you know, wearing a dress doesn't make you a woman.
Starting point is 00:28:30 And like, wearing a what? I'm sorry, wearing what? Did you say, like, a dress? A dress? Like, like this? Or maybe more like this. Sorry, I just, I don't really wear... Okay, well, this one's kinda cute.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Or how about this? Okay. So that's it. Debunked. Debunked. If you thought that men have penises and women have vaginas, you've just been debunked. It's over. That's science right there.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Now, if you're listening on audio, what was happening there is the trans individual was changing outfits. And sometimes he was wearing a dress. Other times he's wearing more outfits. that are more masculine. And this is supposed to prove something? I don't know what exactly. This is maybe something that people on the LGBT left don't understand. We know.
Starting point is 00:29:35 I understand that anyone can wear any outfit. I totally get that. But the whole point is that putting on a certain outfit doesn't actually change your biology. That's the point. We get the same thing. Anytime there's a story about, in fact we'll talk more about this in the daily cancellation but when there's a story about a man
Starting point is 00:29:56 giving birth we could see it you know and maybe we'll see a picture of a guy with not a guy but an individual with with facial hair uh with you know wearing male clothing but with the pregnant belly and that's supposed to prove something to us no yeah we get it that's that's a woman that's a female who's gotten some surgery and is, you know, taking hormone pills and is wearing a certain kind of outfit, but still a female. That doesn't blow my mind at all. I'm perfectly aware that anyone can wear any outfit. In fact, that's my point, that you can wear whatever outfit you want. Just because you're a guy doesn't mean that you have to wear outfits that we culturally associate with men. The point is, if you do put on a different,
Starting point is 00:30:48 for an outfit. If you put on an outfit, we associate with women, it doesn't make you a woman. So once again, we are the ones saying that men, you know, men are free to wear, whatever the hell they want to wear, but you're still going to be a man while you do it. All right, now let's move to our newest beloved segment reading the YouTube comments, where we read the YouTube comments. First, this is from John Reed yesterday on the show. He says, and a lot of comments like this, I have to admit, but John Reed says, Matt, that cardigan has to go. I did wear a cardigan on the show yesterday and got very bad reviews. And here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:31:26 I blame my wife for it. I make no apologies for the cardigan. I think I look great. And now I'm going to wear the cardigan more often just to spite all of you and your cardigan shaming. But I really blame my wife because I was talking to my wife later that night. And I said, you know, I wore the cardigan today and people seem, and people were making fun of it. They seem not to like it.
Starting point is 00:31:46 and she said to me, you wore that? Yeah, what? And then she explained to me that it looks terrible. See, it's your job to make sure that I don't look terrible when I leave the house. As a woman, as the wife, that's your job. So if I leave the house looking awful, really this falls on you. So blame my wife for that. And John Reed, you're banned from listening to the show.
Starting point is 00:32:07 Heather Hyde says, just want to say, I love your wife. Perhaps you used to think you were your own man, but it's about time you realize you are her husband. Love and Light from New Orleans. that is part of marriage though isn't it that's something that probably people don't understand in modern culture but when you get married you are not totally your own anymore that's part of marriage is part of the miracle of that sacrament of marriage when you say i do you are you are coming together you're being bonded as one in a real in a very real and spiritual sense someone with the with the username i'm not your buddy guy says what is the political makeup of lawyers Seriously, how many are left wing?
Starting point is 00:32:45 Their disdain slash hatred of President Trump, combined with the fear of others, left him with very few options. My only question is, does it have to be lawyers? Clearly, this isn't a judicial proceeding with no real judge presiding, and it's all for show. So why not have you go up there and defend President Trump? Well, I don't think I'm the guy to do it, but your question about, you know, because the lawyers for Trump are doing a terrible job. I think we all agree on that, particularly the one lawyer, at least, Bruce Castor. Does he have to have to be a lawyer at all? Could it just be anybody that gets up that he hires?
Starting point is 00:33:14 I would assume, yeah, it could be anybody. But even so, the problem again is that Trump's, one of his great weaknesses, like I said yesterday, one of his great weaknesses, is in personnel in his hiring decisions. We saw this going all the way back to the campaign through the administration and even now. So whether he's hiring lawyers or not, he does not appear to be the best judge of talent. So I think that would be the case no matter who he was hiring. And one of the reasons for that is that for Trump, the number one thing he's looking for is undying, unyielding loyalty to him. Which, yes, of course, you want people you hire to be loyal to you, but that shouldn't
Starting point is 00:34:05 be the only thing you're looking for. But for Trump, it appears that's really it. He just wants someone who's loyal to him and says nice things about him. But there are a lot of people who are talented and could do a great job, yet they have minds of their own. So they may not line up with you 100% on everything. Yet for Trump, that's disqualifying. And so he rules out a lot of what would otherwise be talented people. This is from Laura Brooks.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Referring to the story we led the show with yesterday, Officer Sicknick was reported to have been killed by a blow to the head during the riot, but no evidence has been given that such a blow was ever delivered. No evidence has been found that he was killed by any action taken by any person in the crowd in D.C. At least if there is evidence of that, they're not telling us. Laura says, as an EMT, I can guarantee that if somebody has trauma to cause death, it would be obvious without an autopsy. Yeah, that's, that's again what I would assume that if someone, the original story we were told about Sicknick is that he was beat to death by someone in the crowd or multiple people in the crowd. And you would think, even though I'm not a doctor, I would assume that if somebody was bludgeoned to death,
Starting point is 00:35:21 you'd be able to tell. It would be pretty obvious during the medical examination and the autopsy, if not before that, as you point out. But even if it's not, now you could argue that sometimes someone could, in a sort of a freak occurrence, someone could suffer a blow to the head, and it's not immediately obvious and then die later because of the internal damage that was done. I suppose that sort of thing has happened. But even there, then you'd be able to tell in the autopsy, except they're not releasing the autopsy. And I cannot imagine any good reason. I can imagine a number of reasons why they wouldn't release the autopsy.
Starting point is 00:35:58 I can't think of any good reason. It's hard for me to imagine an ethical reason. When there is so much interest, public interest in this case, when it's being, referred to so often in the impeachment trial proceedings, when this is one of the things being used as a reason to have the military occupying D.C., because of all those reasons, the public has a real interest in what actually killed Officer Siknik.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Yet they're not telling us the autopsy results. Jack Wals finally says, Matt, please help. My marriage is in shambles. I've tried to get help through counseling with no results to speak of I thought the problem would work itself out with time or I could learn to live with it, but since my son is almost two now, I now see that it is unlikely to work. No matter how much I plead, what factual and logical arguments can I put forward or emotional connections I try to make.
Starting point is 00:36:51 My wife still puts ketchup on meatloaf. I'm at my wits end and I'm desperate. I've been there before, Jack. I understand what you're going through. All I can say is just take over the meatloaf making duties. That's what I did in my house. That's the only, that's what you need to do to save your marriage. Godspeed. God bless.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Yeah, this has been obviously a really difficult year for businesses, to put it very mildly. But I've been impressed to see small business owners and others pivoting and adjusting to this reality and finding ways to stay alive and in many cases actually thrive. Businesses have had to be pretty flexible this past year from working remotely to pivoting their business models for long-term survival and growth. If you're in charge of hiring for your business, these pivots have majored. job even more challenging, especially if you've had to hire for brand new roles.

Well, we can't really cancel them because they don't exist, never have existed, cannot exist. So instead we're canceling the people
Starting point is 00:39:40 who want us to pretend they exist. Reading now from the Daily Wire, it says, in Great Britain, a group of hospitals has instructed midwives in their maternity departments to use different terms when treating transgender patients in order to be more gender-inclusive, substituting chest feeding for breastfeeding, replacing breast milk with human milk,
Starting point is 00:40:01 or breast-slash-chest milk, gross, or milk from the feeding mother or parent. terms like chest feeding and human milk are being introduced at NHS Trust in a bid to boost inclusivity. Crystal Live reports. Staff has been instructed to use gender neutral language alongside, not instead of, traditional terms that ensure that all groups are represented. LBC reported of Brighton and Sussex University Hospital, NHS Trust. The hospitals will become the first in the UK to introduce an official gender inclusive language policy for its maternity services departments, which will be rebranded as perinatal services.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Terms such as woman and father will also be superseded by woman or person and parent co-parent or second biological parent, respectively. Brighton and Sussex University Hospital's NHS Trust explains as announcements of the changes, we are on a journey towards gender-inclusive care for everybody during pregnancy, birth, and afterwards. This journey is led by members of the trans and non-binary community. We're at the beginning of this process,
Starting point is 00:41:04 which will continue over the next few years. Midwives believe pregnancy and birth are normal, healthy parts of life. The midwife's role is to support a pregnant person's journey through each stage of pregnancy birth in the early days with their new baby. Midwives believe that you know what is best for you and your baby and will work together with you to ensure your experience of pregnancy and birth is safe and possible. Positive, that is.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Okay, now we can all agree, hopefully, that human milk and chest milk are the most disturbing and revolting rebranding attempts in world history. even worse than New Coke, probably. As for the chest feeding concept, now I have all the criticisms you'd expect me to have and that any sane person would have,
Starting point is 00:41:43 namely that there is no such thing as being gender inclusive when it comes to childbirth and lactation. These are things that only women can do or will ever be able to do. And frankly, as a man, I'm quite grateful for that. I am more than happy to leave all of the birthing and the lactating
Starting point is 00:41:58 to my wife. I have to admit that on the three occasions that my wife has been pregnant, I thought to myself nearly every day, man, I am so glad that I'm not the one who has to do this. But whether I'm happy with it or not, the reality is still the reality. There is no room for inclusion here. It's just like only fish have gills, okay? You can wish that you have gills and you can insist that you have gills and you can tell everybody to call you Carl the carp or whatever. But if you jump into a lake and sit at the bottom without an oxygen mask for several minutes, you're going to drown. It's, it's a lot. It's a lot of, it's,
Starting point is 00:42:32 doesn't matter what you think or how you feel. The reality is the reality. A man can say that he's a woman and identify as one, but he will never give birth and never lactate, ever, period. Just like a woman can say she's a man, but the fact that she can give birth and can lactate means that she is not a man and will never be one, period. These are all the obvious points to make. Let me mention two others. The first is this. Although not everyone can breastfeed, Everyone does have breasts. Breast is an already inclusive term. We all have them.
Starting point is 00:43:09 They typically look different between women and men, though not in all cases. But all members of the human species have breasts. That's why men can even get breast cancer. It's rare, but it does happen because men have breasts. So even if you were trying to include men in breastfeeding, there's no reason to change the word breast. Men have those. It's the feeding part that complicates matters.
Starting point is 00:43:32 in a similar fashion, all women have chests. All people have chests and breasts because those are interchangeable terms, which is why changing the term is superfluous and pointless. All you've succeeded in doing is making it sound weird. I mean, it wouldn't be technically wrong to say that you went to Popeyes and ordered a bucket of chicken chests, but it sounds weird. And there's no reason to say it. A chest is a breast as a chest is a breast.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Okay. Once again, proponents of left-wing gender theory reveal themselves to have absolutely no understanding of human anatomy. They apparently think that women don't have chests. I wonder if they think we need different names for male and female arms and legs, too. See, this is the irony. The left says that it doesn't like gendered language, but what they end up doing is making non-gendered language gendered and then changing it on the basis that it's gendered. If you recall, a very similar thing happened with the A-Men A-Women debacle a few weeks ago. They take a word that is not gendered, they make it gendered, and then they change it
Starting point is 00:44:34 because it is gendered, even though they're the ones who made it gender. One other point. This is more than just silly and stupid. It's both of those things, of course, but it's more. And this is dangerous. Imagine what will happen if these lunatics get their way in succeeding convincing some people, at least, that babies can be fed by men through chest feeding. babies will die in that case. Because again, no matter what the left's ideology says, no matter what they might want, the simple reality is that babies need milk from women or else a direct substitute of milk from women in the form of formula. If they latch on to a man and start suckling, they're going to come up empty.
Starting point is 00:45:13 We're in a world now where not everybody understands that basic point. And I'm not joking when I say that we will eventually start hearing stories about malnourished and starving infants who are being breastfed by their fathers who identify as mothers. Don't think it's too crazy. Nothing is ever too crazy anymore. If modern culture has taught us anything, it's that. Nothing is ever too crazy. And so the people pushing chest feeding are, of course, very much canceled.
