Prince Andrew is under arrest. The brother of the king has just been arrested over his association with Jeffrey Epstein. This is the first major arrest in the Epstein case since President Trump arrested Epstein himself, as well as Gilane Maxwell years ago. Then, back in America, hundreds of millions of gallons of sewage flow into the Potomac as DC's water chief touts the utility's DEI hiring practices. and CNN gets ready to air a documentary on how the real threat facing America after the assassination of Charlie Kirk is actually conservatives.

Biggest news story, absolutely earth-shaking without any hyperbole, there has been a major arrest related to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. That alone would be a big story. Don't forget, the only person who's ever arrested anyone around the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, at least in the last, what, 15 years, is. Trump. Wasn't Obama, wasn't Joe Biden, who was Trump, and he arrested Epstein and Gilane Maxwell. A bunch of the co-conspirators were protected by a non-prosecution agreement under the Bush administration. So we've been waiting. We were saying, when is one of these

associates Leon Black or Les Wexner or whoever, one of these associates going to be arrested? And there was an arrest, and it's the most prominent person, probably in the entire Epstein files. At least the most prominent person. person who had a real serious, tight, long-standing connection with Epstein. And that is Prince Andrew, brother of King Charles III. Now, a lot of people are going to be tempted to cheer this news. I think this arrest is, in fact, very cynically motivated to make you all cheer the supposedly good news.

I would urge a little bit of caution here for conservatives and nationalists and even just ordinary normal people. I would urge a little bit of caution here because I think this is kind of a distraction. Prince Andrew was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Now, it's not specifically for like raping a kid or trafficking a kid or whatever. The clearest allegation against Prince Andrew is it seems that he did have a sexual relationship with this woman, Virginia Jewfrey, possibly when she was 17 years old, not 18 years old. Seems like it. They settled out of court for some millions of pounds, but there was no admission of liability, and Virginia Jufrey has retracted claims against other people. So even that one is a little bit unclear. But in any case, that's not what he was arrested for.

He was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Ostensibly, that was for passing information to Jeffrey Epstein, while Prince Andrew was a UK trade representative. In any case, this involves potential life imprisonment. He was arrested on his birthday, a rough birthday present for Prince Andrew. And the question on a lot of people's minds, I think, is what does the king have to say about this? Did the king do this? Did his brother send the cops to go arrest his brother? Did the king know about this at least and let it happen?

The king says no. King Charles says, I've learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten, Windsor, and suspicion of misconduct in public office. He doesn't even say Prince Andrew because he was stripped of his royal titles. He doesn't even say my brother, Andrew, Andrew Mountbatten, Windsor. In this, as I've said before, the police have our full and wholehearted support and cooperation. Let me state clearly, the law must take its course. As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter.

Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all, Charles Rex. So it seems he didn't know about it. But he's saying, no, it's totally fine for the police to just go, arrest a senior member of the royal family and my brother on royal property. That's totally fine. It's really good. This needs to be carried out. Okay. First of all, for conservatives, for people who think that the monarchy has served generally a useful purpose in England over the many centuries, for people who are not radical leftists, who are not radically opposed to the monarchy as an institution, who recognize that King Charles I and King Charles the second, and maybe even King Charles

the third, or a lot better than Oliver Cromwell, who realized that maybe, along with our founding fathers, the greater threat to liberty than the threat of a king might be the threat of a mob in a democracy taken too far, as our founding fathers agreed, even as they went to war with King George III. In any case, you have to ask yourself, is this arrest of Prince Andrew really about justice. This is for supposed state or financial crimes 26 years ago. I don't even really touching on the underage girl sex stuff, but obviously some of the sex stuff is involved.

That's the only reason any focus is on Andrew right now. I have an unpopular opinion, but it happens to be correct. And here it is. Here's my Norman Rockwell meme unpopular opinion. I think that arresting the king's brother is less about justice. justice than it is a cynical evasion of justice because the British authorities are arresting the King's brother over suspicion of a crime that might have been committed while this guy was maybe committing another crime even though he settled with the supposed other crime out of court

without admitting liability and that in that that's all happening while the UK authorities let Pakistani rape gangs run wild throughout the entire country for decades raping 12-year-old 13-year-old English girls by the bushel basket, to the point that the authorities were actually telling people to stop looking into it because these parts of England became effectively no-go zones and they didn't want to deal with it. Pardon my skepticism when all of a sudden the UK authorities come in in a unprecedented way to arrest the brother of the king. We've never seen this happen in any of our lifetimes, and there's really no precedent for it in English history, a real threat to the English system of government, which is a little different than the American system of government,

but we get our government from the English. They go in there, they do all that, ostensibly in the name of justice, especially for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein. And they're going to let the Pakistani rape gangs that they keep inviting in. Please, the doors are open. Well, come on here, blokes, let me just, you know, roll out the red carpet for you. Get your spot of Earl Grey T. Come on here, yeah, have any of our daughters, please. And they just ignore that for decade upon decade upon decade. I think this is weak stuff. I'm not defending Prince Andrew.

He's a deeply disreputable, degenerate human being. He's always had that reputation. However, I think he's a scapegoat here because he's pathetic. He looks pathetic. His behavior is abhorrent and disgraceful. He's been disowned by his family. He got fired by his mom. He's been stripped of his name.

he's the most pathetic figure in the entire country. He's a white man. That's the one identity group that you are allowed and even encouraged to deride and holding contempt. He's just a scapegoat for an issue that the UK authorities obviously don't take all that seriously because they intentionally, wittingly neglected the Pakistani grooming gangs for decades, and they keep inviting these people in. There was a news story in the UK just a week or two ago about how we need to make the Kotswolds less white, meaning we need to invite more of the same kinds of people who are raping British girls for decades into more of the country.

I just don't buy it. Sorry, I know everyone's going to be out for blood because Andrew is the perfect scapegoat. I think this is weak stuff. I think this is a cynical way to evade actual justice. In the Epstein case and at a deeper level throughout the UK. conservatives and nationalists and normal people who just kind of like their country, especially in the UK, they should be very, very reluctant to celebrate this. Okay, back to America. We have in our swampy national capital the worst sewage spill in U.S. history. 240 to 300 million gallons of sewage just flooded the Potomac. Here is what PBS, this is liberal public broadcasting,

has to say about it. Why is there a lot of shit in the Potomac River right now? Well, a 1960s era sewer pipeline northwest of the nation's capital collapsed in January, flooding the iconic river with millions of gallons of wastewater. And what's in that wastewater? Well, the pipeline that collapsed is a 54-mile sanitary sewer system called the Potomac Interceptor. It moves raw sewage and household wastewater from Maryland and Virginia to a wastewater treatment plant in southwest Washington, D.C. According to D.C. water, more than 243 million gallons of that

wastewater has flowed into the river since the rupture occurred. The majority spilled out in the first five days and put some not so healthy things into the water. A week after this spill, water quality sampling found E. coli near the site to be more than a thousand times with the EPA consider safe for swimming. Gross. E. coli levels have significantly dropped in the week since, but health officials still recommend avoiding contact with the river for both humans and pets. And pet, not even good enough for pets. The Potomac has been poisoned. The river in Washington, D.C. is swampier than ever, tons of e-coli, human excrement, sewage, hundreds of millions of gallons of that sewage. Worse sewage spill in American history. Hey, who's running the D.C. water utility?

You know, when I arrived at D.C. Water, this was an organization. It looked very similar to our industry. It was predominantly, you know, white male at the top. But this is a utility that's, you know, more than 70% people of color work at this utility. And I really believe, and I still believe, and it has been fantastic. The outcomes have been fantastic. But the people at the top, the executives of the chiefs in that C-suite. they should look like the employees that they serve and that they work with. And the same thing with the community. And so my executive team, you know, looks exactly like the community. It looks like it looks like the employees, the staff, you know, be it people of color,

women, men. And it is just a fantastic team that has come together to do a lot of great things here at D.C. water and in the community for the customers. DEI strikes again, this time striking at the heart of our nation, the imperial capital, now absolutely fetid and disgusting with hundreds of millions of gallons of human excrement. Okay, I think we have to examine our first principles here. This guy comes in, what's his name? David Gaddis, the CEO.

He comes in, he says, there were too many white people. running this utility. We need to get rid of the white people. The white people are very, very bad. So he gets rid of the white people and he brings in non-white people and then the utility collapses in the most spectacular way we've ever seen in the United States. This is not to say that non-white people can't run a water utility. Presumably they could. This is to say, however, that perhaps expertise in running water is to be preferred in the C-suite rather than skin color. This is further to question the premise that the C-suite of an organization or a public utility should physically resemble the lower-level employees. I see,

I don't even know how to argue against that because the initial claim is such a non-sequitur. It's like, it's kind of like arguing against, you know, I had eggs for breakfast, purple scooter, flama, lamma, ding-dong. Like, there's a, There's actually no connection whatsoever between the premise and the conclusion, and so I'm not even sure how to argue against it. But if the idea was that his premise was going to lead to excellent water utilities, well, that obviously hasn't happened. And so his premises are wrong. A reminder also that all the diversity stuff, we were talking about this yesterday with Jeremy Carl, who's up for a top State Department job, and Chris Murphy in the Senate, Democrat. and Cory Booker accused him of being a white nationalist.

And they accused him of believing in the evil great replacement theory. And the evil great replacement theory, of course, is that there is, it's an evil, terrible conspiracy theory that holds that there is a political project afoot to reduce the proportion of white people in a given society. And the difference, of course, between that and diversity, equity, and inclusion is that diversity, equity, and inclusion is just the noble, wonderful political project to reduce the portion of white people in a given society. Some would say they're the exact same thing. It's just DEI viewing that project favorably is good. And the great replacement theory viewing that

very same project unfavorably is an evil, terrible lie and a conspiracy theory. In any case, The way that the libs were able to sell DEI to the ordinary Normie voter was to say, oh, it's not that really big a deal. You know, look, we like brown people. We like women. We like homosexuals. We like whatever. And so we're just going to force them in.

We don't think there are enough of them. And so we're going to pick an arbitrary number, and that's how many of them we want in. And yeah, we're going to have to unjustly discriminate against white people and men. But, you know, it's okay. Isn't it great? because then we'll get more of those people we like. And you know what? It's no big deal.

Nothing's really going to change. There can be real consequences to this. Hundreds of millions of gallons of excrement coming to a town near you, whether literally or figuratively, coming to a town near you when you reform your political order on unjust premises

such as this kind of discrimination. Okay. Speaking of bad government, Zohran Mamdani just admitted that he killed 16 New Yorkers. I think the number actually rose to 20 during the recent freeze. No one's really reporting on this, but it was as clear and implicit admission as ever we saw. First, though, speaking of death and life, I want to tell you about preborn. Go to preborn.com slash Noles, K-N-W-L-E-S, 80,000 babies. That is how many lives were saved last year through our sponsor, Preborn, and Preborn supporters like you.

Right now, thousands of women are being told the same heartbreaking lie that abortion is their only choice, that they're on their own, that there's no way forward. But everything shifts the moment an expectant mother walks into a preborn network clinic and sees her baby on that ultrasound screen. In that instant, her chance of choosing life doubles. It's not abstract anymore. It's her baby created in God's image, a sacred life meant to be cherished and protected. When she hears that heartbeat for the very first time, a divine bond is formed. Today, we can all support a mother in need. one pre-borne donor put it beautifully. My mother chose life. That's the only reason I'm here today, and that's exactly why I give to Preborn, so other mothers can make that same choice. A donation of $28 bucks provides one ultrasound that could save a life and impact generations to come. I personally support this organization. I think they do incredible work. 100% of the money that you give will go towards saving babies. They fundraise for admin overhead separately. Call pound 250, say the keyword baby. That's pound 250 keyword baby. We go to preborn.com slash Knowles, CanadaWLAS, to donate securely today.

AP reporting, very, very liberal news outlet, the Associated Press, reporting, Zohran Mamdani reboots homeless encampment sweeps in New York City. They're kind of playing this down a little bit.

Zohran Mamdani reboots. He's rebooting. This is kind of fun. It's like the latest Marvel movie. Homeless encampment sweeps in New York City. What do you mean reboot? Why is he got to reboot it? Oh, because if that headline were honest, it would say

Zohan Mamdani reverses his own policy to stop removing homeless encampments in New York City. But wait a second. It's February. It's February. 19th. Zohran Mamdani's been in office for like five minutes. So that's actually a pretty big news story. There was a policy. He came in and enacted a new policy. He reversed the old policy. He put in his new policy. And then something happened. And then he's now rebooting the old policy. Like five seconds later. What happened? Must have been pretty dramatic. Whatever happened.

Oh, right. He killed 20 New Yorkers. Within just a few days, he killed 13 by leaving these homeless out on the street. He let 13 freeze to death and three overdose. I guess three or four more died in the days that followed. A reminder that Zoran's policy, which was sold as compassion. It's compassionate to let schizophrenics and drug addicts live on the street. It's compassionate to let them be exposed to the elements. It's compassionate to let them kill themselves with drugs and rape each other and mug each other. and it's compassionate to let innocent normal law-abiding New Yorkers have to deal with people who are at least crazy and possibly criminal wherever they go in the city. That's compassionate, right? Turns out it's not compassionate to anybody. But don't let him live this down. This was Zohon Mamdani campaigning just a few months ago.

Done since the start of his administration, thousands of swaps have happened since 2024, but no one has been offered permanent housing. and I think the data from May was 114 more opportunity to shelter. Will you continue to do it? They were asking me to not. No. No. No. There it is.

No. I will not sweep the homeless. This old policy under the Adams administration going back further. No. Not going to do it. And he realized he was wrong like that. Same thing with his economic policies. He's already out of money.

He already doesn't have money for his policies. Do not let them take the spotlight off Mum Donnie. Mamdani's win was heralded as a great sign for Democrats come November. We're headed toward a blue wave. Americans are sick of Trump and these conservative policies. This guy, Zohran Mamdani, the poster child of the young, new, cool, hip Democrat party has failed and admitted that he's failed in record time. I've never seen anything like this in all of politics. One month, he's reversing his signature policies because he killed a bunch of people in like a month.

that's what Democrats can promise you in November. What they can promise you in November is failure, poverty, death, and excrement in your water. That's what they're going to promise you, okay? And they're going to do it fast if they win. Okay. Now, given all of the real factual disadvantages that the Democrats have, because Trump is doing very well, the Republicans are doing very well on just practical policies and the Dems, you know, are leaving you with sewage and death.

How are the Democrats going to spin things come November? Probably the most disgusting display I've seen from the Democrats in years. CNN is actually trying to tell you that the conclusion from the assassination of Charlie Kirk that we should all draw is that the real threat to America comes from the conservatives. Well, for the past several months, I've been working on a special project examining the growing influence of Christian nationalism in America. If you're not familiar, Christian nationalism is an ideology rooted in the belief that our country was founded as a Christian nation and that our laws and institutions should reflect Christian values. Put a pause here. So it's this crazy belief.

Christian nationalism is the crazy belief that America was founded as a Christian nation. You know, like, I mean, could you imagine? Like if, as if America were founded by a ship full of extremely zealous Christians who called themselves pilgrims. And then more ships of extremely zealous Christians called themselves Puritans said that the country would be a model of Christian charity in a shiny city on a hill, for instance. A self-conception of America that would be consistently reaffirmed up to and including through the presidency of Ronald Reagan, who, recited those very same words in the 1980s. You know, the kind of country that says, like, in God we trust on our money, or in God do we trust in our national anthem, the kind of country that say, I don't know, the founding

fathers would have described as being founded on the principles of Christian morality and sharing a common religion. For instance, the kind of country that would be founded with a constitution that recognized established Christian churches in multiple U.S. states. For instance, just hypothetically, could you imagine that possibility? Please pardon the lengthy diatribe. Just want to point out, by her own definition, Christian nationalism is like the only proper way to view the American political project.

She goes further on Christian nationalism even than I do, albeit out of ignorance. Okay, keep going. My hour-long documentary this weekend, we're going to bring you a preview of what you'll see. Starting off with the assassination of Charlie Kirk last year. Experts say it was a pivotal moment for the movement in an occasion where the tragedy of his loss, unified Christian nationalists and the Trump administration as they honored him. September 21st, 2025. America is a nation in grief, a nation in shock, and a nation in mourning.

Charles James Kirk was heinously murdered. Forgive him. Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and prominent Christian nationalist, was assassinated. It became a rallying call for those who believed in his message. Our greatest evangelist for American liberty became immortal. And it was a call to action. My charge to all of you put Christ at the center of your life as he advocated for giving his. Memorial service was one of the most potent examples of the shift in our culture that we're experiencing right now,

where a large segment of American Christians are being activated by these ideas radicalized. Put-up wise. There it is. You're waiting. So you see this guy, this complete loser. You don't know if he's a loser at first. Do you think maybe he's just saying, look, this was a big shift in our culture. This is a big shifter. I agree. I was there. I was there at Charlie's memorial service. I was there at Erica's beautiful speech. I was there when the entire government came out and they gave these beautiful evangelistic memorials for Charlie. It was just absolutely gorgeous. I was there. He says this was a pivotal moment. And you say, okay, go on. For radicalization. I say, what a freaking loser. These people. It's unbelievable. You almost couldn't make it up. The takeaway from Charlie's memorial service, from the assassination of Charlie Kirk, is that the real threat is conservatives.

Hold on. Wrap it up, CNN, and then I'll get to what this means. That say that they are the persecuted ones and that they need to stand up for Christians' rights. It's just crazy that, you know, Charlie Kirk and the people like him would ever imagine that they were the persecuted ones. after a leftist LGBT activist shot Charlie Kirk on television on stream in front of hundreds or thousands of people. After the same kind of LGBT left-wing assassin who has repeatedly targeted and attempted and threatened and tried to kill a lot of conservatives over the last decade, after one of them actually pulled it off, actually pulled it off, killed one of the most gracious guys in American politics, one of the great coalition builders who just tried to talk it out and have civil discourse and who was very, very effective. After that guy was slain, and then his heroic wife shows up on stage and along with the entire Trump administration practically, but led by Charlie's heroic wife, gets up there and encourages what?

retribution, violence, vigilantism like the left would be encouraging, like the left constantly perpetrates? No, encourages Christian virtue as a response. Unbelievable, unbelievable beauty. I mean, we were all tearing up at least or crying in the room. And it wasn't just Erica. You hear Pete Hig set there.

You heard the Secretary of State, the vice president, the president, on and on and on, the entire room encouraging, Christian virtue as a response to the left, killing one of our leaders, then celebrating killing one of our leaders and encouraging killing more of our leaders as well as ordinary rank and file members. And the grieving widow, the organization that the guy founded, and the entire Trump administration encourages Christian virtue as a response. And CNN comes out with this putrid, disgusting documentary, far more toxic than whatever excrement is in.

the Potomac right now. And they say, actually, you know what, after one of us shot Charlie Kirk and then we all celebrated, you know what we need to conclude that conservatives are the real threat. These people make me want to vomit. And how do we respond to this? There's a real key in here. There's a real key, which is the expert so-called says, you know, when Charlie Kirk was shot, this was a pivotal moment. There was this unity around what? A Christian nationalism. Let me tell you something. If you If you don't like Christian nationalism, wait till you see unchristian nationalism. You don't like the religious right. Wait until you see the irreligious right because you're not going to like that.

I promise you. I promise you that. But they said there was this moment of unity and we had to stop it. The Democrats had to stop it. The liberal activists had to stop it. The liberal media had to stop it. Demons, I think, had to stop it. Like literal demons had to stop it.

They didn't like that unity. And then what does the right do? The right reacts to that and the right is always infighting. and then there are all these jealous jockeying people who are always, that's just constantly true on the right, they're always just jockeying for position, sometimes motivated by ideology, often just motivated by personal gain.

And everyone's always fighting with each other. And you know that's not my M.O. I try not to get involved in that. Because it's a lose-lose. The people who are always trying to do the infighting, they love it when you talk about them. That's what they want. And the people who don't love,

don't just do it for attention, but the ones who actually are doing it for ideological struggles, there's no benefit to coalitional unity if you talk about it. You don't want to give, you don't want to give these people what they want, especially don't want to give CNN what it wants. Keep your eyes on the prize. Because the left is. The left recognizes that unity in the wake of Charlie's assassination, which we had, at least for a little bit. And maybe we, I think in the real world, we actually substantially do still have that, that kind of unity, that kind of focus, that kind of clarity of purpose, that kind of clarity of who opposes us. It's very,

very potent. And they're trying to take it down. And their real issue is not even with Charlie Kirk or Erica or TPSA or Pete Hagseth or Marco Rubio or J.D. Vance or Donald Trump. You know who they're real issues with? It's the subject of the documentary. Their real issue is with Christianity. Christianity is a guiding political principle, which means that their real issue is is with Christ. They're real issues with God. The Dems see very clearly what they have to do to win in November. We should see that clearly too. We should recognize whatever factional, I don't like this, I don't like this person, I don't like that candidate, I don't like this broadcaster, I don't, whatever. If it's contrary to common purpose, just ignore it, just ignore it,

and move on and keep your eyes on the prize and stay focused. Now, speaking of clearing the air, I want to tell you about my absolute favorite air purifier, and that is rabbit air. Go to rabbitair.com. I cannot possibly recommend rabbit air's six-stage filtration system enough. I love it. So first of all, I'm a cigar smoker. This really matters to me. We'll get to that in a second.

Second, though, I do not smoke cigars in my home. I smoke cigars in my studio. I smoke cigars in my car. I smoke cigars in a lot of places, but not in my home. And yet, I insist upon having multiple rhapsodels. Air is the A3 in my home. It is the best air purifier. Sweet little Lisa loves it. It's amazing kind of stuff that pulls out of the air. It's great. Now, when we're talking about cigar smoke, the rabbit air is perfect if you were a cigar smoker. It doesn't just move the smoke. It captures it. It is engineered to trap and reduce the air of heavy smoke particles and lingering odors, ensuring that your room stays fresh long after you've smoked. The new dual hive activated carbon filter provides superior air contact, enhanced odor reduction. It's just amazing. I've used rabid air for years. I have never been a big believer in air purifiers.

Rabbit Air convinced me. Highly, highly recommend for your wife, for all the non-smokers out there, people who just want clean air, and especially if you're a cigar smoker, rabbitair.com, call their consultants 24-7 for a personalized recommendation. Tell them I sent you, you will get the best setup for your home and especially for your smoking space. Speaking of left-wing violence, mention this at the top of the show. I don't even know if this counts as a news.

story anymore. When it happens every day, is it a news story? A woman has set fire to a Kansas city warehouse that is said to be an ice detention facility. You can see the woman's posted by Rapid Report 2025. She's pouring some kind of gasoline, some of butane or something onto the facility, a lighter fluid. I don't know. These women, man, these women in the wake of crazy Peggy Flanagan, Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota organizing the anti-ice protests, riots, obstructing police, Renee Good, the poor woman who wound up getting herself killed because she thought it was a good idea to go out and play Captain Marvel on behalf of Venezuelan child rapists. She thought that'd be really smart. Then she was going to drive her SUV

into a cop and she didn't think there'd be any consequences. Because why? I don't know because something clearly went a little wrong in her brain. Something clearly went a little wrong in her emotions. but it's all these people. It's not just women, but it is disproportionately women. It's disproportionately like this kind of woman who is doing this. And do you know why it's happening? Can I say it? This is going to be a little bit politically incorrect, but it's 100% accurate. It's because these women need husbands. That's why. That's why. These women are going crazy because they don't have husbands. In some cases, maybe technically they're married, but they are married in 100% of cases to complete schlub jokers who don't actually husband their wives. And in a lot of

cases, they're not married. And you see this reflected in broader social data that women are putting off getting married. And now for the first time ever, high school boys want to get married at a higher rate than high school girls. Completely insane. Single women now believe, 55% of single women now believe that single women are happier than married women. So you see this major decline in marriage. And Even the women who do get married, marry these effeminate eunuchs who are, practically speaking, not really husbands. And women need husbands. And men need wives. Men need wives, because wives, as we have often observed on the Daily Wire, wives, civilize men. They domesticate men to a certain degree. They force men, paradoxically, not only to be domesticated, but to become even more

tough, even more ferocious, because now the men have responsibilities and they've got to go out there and they got to bring home the bacon and they got to protect their family. And so weirdly, marriage makes men both a little bit softer, a little bit more sensitive, but also tougher at the same time. So men need to get married, but women need to get married too, because women can be completely nuts and you know that. And ladies, I'm talking to you, you know that too. Women can be real kooky. and sometimes women need their husbands to say, hey, honey, in lovingly, but hey, honey, you're a little bit crazy right now, and you need to calm down and you need to put down the can of gasoline.

Honey, I know you're upset by whatever you saw on TikTok, but you can't go burn down the ice facility. I know, I know your, I know your mother said that thing to you the other day and you're really angry because your sister's not even taking your side in it. I know, no, I know, honey, but you can't drive your SUV into a cop. You can. And actually, even if you were just focused on the issue at hand, you should not endanger your life and the life of a police officer to defend a Venezuelan child rapist. You know, no, no. Women need them. They need husbands. Husbands need wives too. But wives need husbands. And these women need to be married. And if they are technically married to men, the men need to act like men and not like eunuchs. Have I made my point clear?

Do I need to be more clear? I'm not sure I could be more clear about that point. Speaking of marriage, the United Nations has a very important message for everyone. The message is a child should never be in a marriage. Hashtag end child marriage at UNFPA. Okay. Every three seconds, writes the UN. A girl is married somewhere in the world. Child marriage is a human rights violation that denies girls the chance to reach their full potential. That's so true. Join this Valentine's Day join UNFPA and speaking out against this form of gender-based violence. That's so true. Except wait a second. The picture that the UN used is of a little lily white blonde-haired girl. Well, that's kind of weird, isn't it? I mean, look, maybe that's referring to Rotherham. Maybe that's referring to the Pakistani grooming

gangs in the UK that even the UK authorities don't want to talk about because they're too busy making a big spectacle out of Prince Andrew. Maybe that's what's going on. But are little white, blonde girls entering into child marriages, which are really just kind of a form of rape? Well, let's look at the statistics. Where is the highest prevalence of child marriage? The highest prevalence of child marriage? Is it in the Nordic countries with those blonde white girls? Is it in England? Is it in Canada? Is it? Oh, no, it's in sub-Saharan Africa, where one in three girls are subject to child marriage. 33% of girls. Okay. Well, surely, I mean, look, the UN would never lie or misrepresent politics. So,

Surely the second most prevalent group in child marriages, that must be the blonde lily white girls, right? No, it's actually India and Bangladesh. India and Bangladesh, which are so populous that they actually constitute a third of all child marriages. Okay, well, come on, those awful colonizing blonde white people must be guilty of this somewhere, right? No, the next group is the indigenous and black populations of Latin America and the Caribbean, not even the total population. specifically the indigenous and African-descended populations of Latin American, the Caribbean, two to three times the prevalence of people with white background. And then, okay, after that, please, come on, please, it's got to be England, it's got to be Ireland,

it's got to be, nope, it's Middle East, North Africa, and when you finally get to this occurring in European countries, it's gypsies. So again, I say this, not too invague. against the sub-Saharan Africans or the Indians or the Bangladeshis or the indigenous or the black population or the Caribbean or whatever, the MENA, the gypsies. Jipsies actually are, well, it's a topic for another time. But anyway, no, we like all of these people. They're all children of God. We don't mean to. But we will not solve political problems if we lie about the problem. And the UN has to lie about the problem because the UN has adopted an ideology that says white people are always bad and non-white people are always good. And that's the ideology that liberal woke globalism adopts.

And the problem is that the actual rapes in this case are entirely non-white people. Entirely. So if you're looking, if you're going to start investigating the little blonde communities, you're not going to catch a single child marriage. If you want to stop, just broadly, if you want to stop the sexual abuse of children. Sending the coppers to go arrest Prince Andrew at one of the royal estates is going to do precisely nothing. And everyone kind of knows it. There are a lot of places you could go in England to stop child rape that's going on right

now. But the authorities generally won't even do that because the perpetrators, they don't look the right way. Hashtag stop child marriage. But don't admit who's actually engaging in the child marriages. We can't admit that. Okay. So you don't want to stop it.

Okay. That's fine. When given the choice between fixing political problems and giving up a false political ideology, the liberals, and I'm sorry, and maintaining a false political ideology, the liberals will always choose to maintain the false ideology. They will never fix the problem. They will let the homeless people die in the streets until they're truly. heinously pressured to stop it,

and by the way, they're still going to let the homeless die in the streets because they're not going to fix the drug laws and they're probably not even going to enforce the homeless encampment rule. They're not going to stop the child abuse. They're not going to stop the violence in the streets. More Muslim violence taking place every moment we look.

They're not going to stop any of that. You could have, just to go back to the CNN point, the most prominent conservative activist in the country, slain by the most typical, it's almost a caricature of a left-wing activist. The young LGBT freak super online radical shoots Charlie Kirk and they will find a way to blame Charlie Kirk. They will find a way to blame the conservative.

Because you can have the Atlantic magazine saying, you know, political terrorism is actually a left-wing problem now. When given the choice between fixing the problem and keeping their false ideology, they will always choose the ideology every single time. Okay. Speaking of LGBT, another day, another heinous story about a trans-identifying lunatic who is being released by the authorities to go commit more crimes.

Anyway, I'm just, that's what I'm just telling you. If it wasn't a good comment, blame the producers. This is from Drummer's Workshop, Norm's Music. All right, it's a good sign. I grew up in a poor black, dyslexic child. Gavin Newsom, a reference to one of my very favorite movies. The Jerk. Okay.

All right, producers. You did all right today. Turning to America's evil top hat, Canada, a Canadian tranny who stabbed his seven-year-old son and eight-year-old daughter is reportedly out on bail. This is a hat-tip to Billboard, Chris here. what does aforementioned Tranny have to say? I just wanted to do a check-in, let people know that I am being safe and being secure.

I have taken care of my needs, and I am just chilling until I actually go for my sentencing. And yeah, I did kind of realize that we do have a highly unique. opportunity here, whereas I'm someone who did something heinous and I'm on social media. Whereas a lot, pretty much all the other people who do something heinous get locked in a box and blocked out from society and they don't get to talk to them. So like, does it put me at risk? I'm already at risk. So whatever.

Okay. So for the lib, who watch this show, and I'm always appreciative to the lives who watch this show. Does this seem like the kind of guy who should be out on the street? The crazy costume, the crazy, filthy-looking hair

wrapped in some sort of blanket, ostensibly living in a car, nails painted as a man, laughing demonically, saying, am I a risk? I'm always a risk. Should that person be free to roam about the street?

after stabbing a boy and a girl. Probably not, right? Probably not. So why? Why is it? I know a lot of my friends on the right. They just get very angry about this. And they say, this is outrageous, you know,

and they kind of beat their fists on the table. I very rarely beat my fist on the table because I want to figure out why this is happening because I'd like to solve the problem. Why? In what kind of world would a judge let this person out on the street? In what kind of world would society tolerate this? or even encourage this guy with every red flag,

to dye his hair crazy colors, not to bathe, to paint his nails, to be released after stabbing children, to admit that he's a risk to people and then still leave him on the street, not immediately arrest him. The cause of this, I think is pretty simple.

It is expressive individualism. It is the fact that we have exalted expressive individualism as our national ideology. That term was coined by Robert, Bella, I think it was Bella who coined the term. And expressive individualism says that self-actualization is the highest goal. So expressive individualism in its very nature opposes tradition, because tradition doesn't allow you to express yourself in your full individuality, supposedly. Expressive individualism creates thin relationships because we're all just individuals.

So even when you get married, you know, you could get divorced at any time. It's all just about you. It's all about whether or not your partner is serving your needs. It's all of it. Your kids are really just accout an enjoyment for you. It's all just about you. Nations are really just about you. You don't really sacrifice for the nation. You just try to figure out what you can get out of the nation.

And it promotes a therapeutic T-Loss. So the aim of life is to make yourself feel good. It's not the aim of the Christian T-Loss is to go to heaven, to know God, to love him and serve him, in this world and to be with him forever in eternity. That's the end of the Christian life. The end of the stoic life is to live virtuously. Actually, plenty of pagan traditions say that the end of life is to live virtuously. The end of the hedonic life of hedonism is to have pleasure, whether we're talking about base pleasures or even whether we're talking about higher or intellectual

pleasures. That's what the end of that life is. The end of expressive individualism is therapy. is just to feel really, really yourself, to be authentic, whatever that means. To be that which is uniquely you and not in any way affected by anything else. But of course, this is impossible because we're memetic creatures. And so you can never actually separate yourself from your environment. You can never actually remove yourself from time and space. So it leads to people just going completely nuts. And I guess the most extreme form of that, you see this throughout society,

but the most extreme form of that is probably in the trans ideology, which is why the trannies are much more violent, certainly against themselves, 41% suicide rate and a 7% yearly suicide attempt rate. But they're violent against other people, too. The FBI just released some numbers yesterday that in the past five years, the incidents, the active shooter incidents involving an adult trans identifying male

are double that of those involving an adult normal male. So anyway, it's violent, it leads to craziness. to this guy cackling like a demon saying, ha ha ha ha ha ha, I'm a risk to everybody. Ha ha ha ha. So if that's the root cause and we don't want to just treat the symptoms, then actually it's not enough just to make fun of the trannies. I don't really want to make fun of the trannies. I feel very bad for the trannies. It's not even enough to try to treat the trannies or to try to circumscribe transgenderism such that we don't trans the kids, but the adults we leave them to be to do whatever they want to harm themselves just like Zohran Mamdani leaves the homeless to die in the streets of New York.

That's not enough. We actually have to look even further into ourselves and into our political order. Are we going to say self-actualization, expressive individualism is the highest goal, as many people on the right say? We're going to say, no, there's something more important. Tradition. Order. Christianity say religious truth. Grace.

Virtue. Are those the highest end? we're willing to say that, we're not even really treating the symptom. We're barely treating the symptom. And the problem will only get worse.

I am yet convinced that he was not of this world.

All men know of the great tax. Liaisee. Who am I, Father? That the gods should war for my soul. Princess Garris, saviour of our people. I know what the bull god offered you. I was offered the same. And?

There is a new pirate work in the world. I've seen it. A god who sacrifices what he loves for us. We are each given only one life singer. No. We're given another. I learned of Yazoo the Christ. And I have become his follower.

I'm his follower. He's waiting on a miracle. And I think you can give him money. Trust in Yezu. He is the only hope for men like us. Fate of Britain never rests in the hands of the great life. Great light. Great darkness. Such things mattered to me then. What matters to you now, mistress of lies? You, nephew. A the high king. How many lives must be lost before you accept the power?

You were born to wield. So clinging to the promises of a God who has abandoned you. I cannot take up their sword again. You know what you must do. Great life, forgive me. The time has come. To be reborn.
