The Left goes all out on a free speech rally in Boston, Antifa makes its move, and Bannon's out at the White House.
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
So is everybody. A nazi now plus is Antifa
the very dangerous or not, and we will talk about Steve Bannon, leaving the White House, I'm Ben Shapiro. This is the Ben Shapiro show.
Hey it's total Eclipse day, and this is the day when a guy comes back from the future and tells us all about it, and we give him all the power just like in a Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's court will talk a little bit later about the solar eclipse. If we have to I'm still weirded out by the fact that people are so obsessed with a giant circle. Moving in front of another trial
circle in the sky, but nonetheless we will get to solar eclipse. Talk were actually filming this inside a completely
dark studio, so I will be the only one who can see after this is over. I'm very excited about this will be the last seeing person in America, along with.
Office and just the other people in this room are safe. So we will be your new rulers when this is over and you're blind wandering the streets not knowing
is going on, but will be able to see 'cause we're filming this so anyway, before we get,
do any of the latest news. I first want to say thank you to our sponsors over at legacy box, so
When was the last time you watched those home movies that are stuck in your garage in,
smoldering well rats eat them. When was
this time. You look at those pictures. The answer is you haven't in thirty years, but
it will be ruined if you leave them out in the garage and that's why you need to talk to my friends over at legacy box. You take all the old pictures, all of you
film reels all of your old tapes, Vhs tapes for the kids. Those are those tapes used to put in the funding machine and you take all
and you send those all the way to legacy box, they will send you a box. You put labels on them. You send all the way back to legacy box legacy box puts those all on a thumb, drive or dvd
You can access them at any time, instead of with there's a fire or a flood or zombie apocalypse during the eclipse. If any of that were
What happened? You would no longer have to worry bout, schlepping boxes of crap out of your garage. Now you could just grab the dvd or thumb drive and all of your family memories are preserved. You load the legacy box with your old tapes film.
Pictures and audio recordings you send it back and they take care of everything in the provide updates at every step because they have those
little bar codes on them, so you can actually see what they've done with each particular piece of material that you sent back to them over one slash, four,
and families have used legacy box,
limited time go to Legacybox, dot, com, Slash Ben, and you get a forty percent.
Discount on your order. That's legacybox dot com, slash! Then you get a forty percent discount on
order. It's a service
definitely definitely need great for for your parents, it is
for siblings. What makes a terrific birthday gift box, dot com, slash span, that is legacybox dot, com, slash and
forty percent discount on your order and that lets them know that we sent you so
there's this very irritating line of thought that has now appeared from the left and it is super duper irritating and it is, and if you can jam anti five and you all
so condemn neonazis. You are there for covering for NEO. This is
stupid and it's part of a broader effort by the left pane to everyone in the world who's on the right as a NEO or nazi sympathizer or confederate sympathizer. It's really ugly, as
last week there's a number of propositions. I think that ninety five percent of Americans agree on Nazis, bad communism, bad violence against peaceful protesters, bad right. Those three seems to me
pretty simple and it seems to me, like the vast majority of Americans should agree with those, but because of
little motivations on all political sides. All of this has
has gone into the background. It's receded into the background said were clubbing each other over the head. Apparently, all right, wingers are supposed to be NEO Nazis and all left wingers are Antifa an narrate. The two shall meet so today,
I want to talk about who is who, because I think, there's a lot of category error going on. I think that people are looking at the rally that happened in Boston
the Boston Free Speech coalition rally in left to saying that's a bunch of NEO Nazis. The right is looking at all the protesters. The forty thousand protesters who showed up-
all of those people are Antifa. No, no ok! So if you're going to gauge the particular merit of a group, you have to gauge
along two lines, one line is: what do they believe and the other one is what do they do?
we engage the morality of what somebody believes and engage the morality of what they do. So one of the
it's been very irritating, is when people like me, say anti frozen evil group because they violate the social contract by beating up people with whom they disagree.
Feels so you're saying they're worse than the Nazis. No,
I'm not saying the worse than the Nazis in terms of their belief system
They initiate violence and the Nazis. Don't then they are worse than the Nazis in terms of their particular behavior
the Nazis initiate violence. Then we have moral equivalent in terms of their behavior and the Nazis are worse than ideology. I'm trying to be very specific in particular here, because I don't like broad labels now I want to correct myself on that score because I said before that the left has been very kind
Let me be clear about this. I mean everyone on the left. I mean many
stream leftists can many more mainstream leftists are kind or twenty five mainstream
there's are kind to the all right. Get the all right has been a movement that a lot of people on the right have kind of. When did not that President Trump and Steve Bannon among them, but the idea that
the entire right, has been winking and nodding or or openly
celebrating forget winking nodding openly celebrating the alright, that's not true and left,
main stream like this have been openly celebrating antique a self. I think a great case in point is what happened over the weekend in Boston, so in Boston. This weekend is what the Boston Free Speech Coalition called it's free speech rally leading up to it, the mayor of Boston and Thomas Walsh. He said that he doesn't want any of the white supremacists in his city. Here's what he had to say.
We also have a message to the hate groups, especially any data plans to come to our city this weekend. Boston does not welcome you here. Boston does not want you here. Boston rejects you a message: we reject racism, we reject white supremacy, we reject Anti Semitism, we reject the KKK. We reject NEO Nazis rejected metric terrorism and we reject hatred, and we will do everything.
Thing in our power to keep hate out of our city. Ok, so it's fine for him to say that he wants to prevent that. People who are hateful shouldn't be in this
That's fine when he says, will do all in our power to keep them from entering the city. That's illegal! You can't prevent people from moving into your city because of their viewpoint. That's just not something that you can do
What's amazing about this is is who are the Boston Free Speech coalition? Let's talk about this for a second, because here's what my fear, my fear,
Is that what happened in Charlottesville is now going to be conflated with events that they're not all right
they're, not white supremacists, I'm going to be in Berkeley in September. 14Th is the media going to cover. That is, though, I'm an alt righter, because that fits their convenient narrative,
I'm sort of NEO Nazi could be absurd. I was the number one target without right in twenty. Sixteen wear a yamaka, an orthodox Jew, but it would be insane
but I fear that the media and the left are going to do exactly that after the media on
when do exactly that, they're going to use the Boston
situation as sort of their prototype for this so Boston, free speech coalition in originally invited a couple of guys who are what they call out light. One is named Joe Biggs and the other is based. Stick man. We've had based stick man on the program before specifically to talk about Antifa violence.
In Sacramento in Berkeley right so there
These are guys who are friendly with.
Right, but I don't think it's fair, necessarily to call them devotees of the alt right per se. In any case, these guys are both slated to speak at this particular rally and
both cancels because the rally said: listen, we don't want to be associated with anybody who even all light. We don't want people who are associated with that. So we openly condemn white supremacist, NEO Nazism in the alt right. This is what the organizers of the event said. They said this clear.
Openly in the days leading up to this event, they,
he said we don't want anything to do with those people and in fact, here's a picture from the event. Ok at
and there was a a a guy who's, a a congressional candidate whose name is doctor ship. I get Durai who's at
angel candidate in Boston, here's a picture from this event and what you
see is that they're standing inside of gazebo in Boston Common another 'cause. You know well because I used to go to school in Boston, so I know Boston, Commons pretty well and his sweet says to all fake news. This was the White supremacist free speech rally. I just
yeah. Okay. What you can see is it's a shiver for Center Jennifer Senate, and then people are holding up signs that say black lives do matter. Okay, is this a like a white supremacist rally to you they're, all the
signs that say black lives do matter at this supposed white supremacist rally and then there's
other kind of lefty things is noted. Gm owes stop Monsanto. It's not a lefty things that black lives matter at by the way. It's sort of lefty thing to pander to the black lives matter, movement, but matter movement, but
there's a person who's holding up a sign, it's also sponsored by ship for Senate, and it says clean food, clean air
Government, no GMO Gmos, stop Monsanto again, a real lefty cause the anti GMO cause. Does this sound like a white supremacist rally so
on Twitter. I went out- and I said you know what's the evidence of this was actually what white Supremacist Rally, because it was sort of being pitch that way. Even Huffington Post said it's not a white supremacist rally, even Huffington Post at the white supremacist didn't show up
but the, but was this white, so the only evidence that anybody could see was there was one.
I literally one guy who showed up wearing a shirt with the so called fourteen words. The fourteen words are the sentence that NEO say something that we have to protect white civilization for our progeny and a few more words, and that is for
But that's why there's this NEO nazi symbol, NG, one thousand four hundred and eighty eight, it's the fourteen word slogan about protecting white civilization for our children and then eighty eight is Heil. Hitler H is the eighth letter in the alphabet, so there's one guy who
the fourteen words on the back of the shirt that was legitimately the only evidence that I could see that this was an all right rally as materialized the media coverage
yes, as the NEO had shown up in Boston, and they were shut down by
Two thousand demonstrators Kate. This is the problem when you start conflating
people who are normal conservatives, normal right wing, normal Republicans with the neo you're going get a backlash,
and it's really gross to CNN, has been doing this too CNN published an entire list of supposed hate groups and they got the
list directly from the southern Poverty law center. The southern poverty law center is a radical left group that routinely
peoples, normal conservatives, NEO, Nazis, hate groups, so, for example, they label the
David Horowitz Freedom Center, where I used to work at a about a hate group: okay, they've, they've, labeled, a bunch of other, a bunch of other groups like the family Research Council,
right. The label data, hey Group that labeling Ledonne Nut case named Floyd Lee Corkins, to go over to the family Research Council in twenty twelve and he tried to shoot people at that.
Miller. Establishment in CNN ran a story all about how
s, Splc is labels of hate groups meant that these were all hate group,
that in league with the worst in America,
A city journal writes Daymark Pulliam Rights Right
yes, has an undeniable ideological agenda. In addition to its tendentious list of seven, nine hundred and seventeen hate groups also also maintains a list of more than her
reporter extremists or extremist groups, including Charles Murray,
at one time they labeled Ben Carson in extremist, because he was opposed to gay marriage. Yet
is pushing this out there as though in the
aftermath of the NEO Nazi rally in Charlottesville. This was the real threat was all of these groups were basically NEO nazis. You wonder why the right react so negatively to the left. Take on all of this. You wonder why? Maybe it's because the left, instead of unifying within ninety five percent of Americans, I talked about at the beginning,.
Instead of doing that they are much more focused on trying to broaden out mainstream members. Left more interested in
being out there critique of NEO to fit the entire right wing movements. Of that all concert. Can all conservative then you're? Not these aren't even conservative ahead a leftist in the
since that they believe in bigger government. The leading government intervention- they don't live in the constitution of the United States, they believe in in government involved. In things like healthcare, they're only right wing compared to left wingers a river in in
sort of european sense, in the same way that the Nazi Party in Nazi Germany was right wing compared to the Communist Party in Nazi Germany had nothing to do with american conservatism. Nazism has nothing to do with american conservatism. The left is very much invested in trying to tie those two together and then what's the purpose of that well number,
They think you gain some points politically by calling everybody on the right a deplorable. They think that this is somehow going to win the elections, and then they do
something else, and this is even worse. This is they. They start to make excuses and room for folks at and T for, and if I have to gauge the threat to America between the NEO Movement and he thought I would suggest right now that the threat from Anti far to the America
in social fabric, is just as or more dangerous than the threat from the NEO Nazis.
Because their ideology is worse than nazi ideologies, of course worse, but because the
Mainstream right is not embracing the neonates. Many
the mainstream left are embracing, anti anti Antifa is based on the proposition that rejects the basic MAX Faber and MAX next
Sept, which is that in a civilized society, the monopoly on use of force has to belong to the government civilization.
Is based on the idea that we all got together. We banded together and we said to the government. You protect our rights, you have the gun. We're now
We each other in the streets? You have the gun, we police forces, we have army and and
projects all that they say. Listen, it's up to us we're going to go out on the streets and we're going to help. People are going to harm people are going to hurt people and burn things and loop property and all the rest of it. That's gains.
Get sick is here, so I'm going to talk about what Antifa did it? This Boston rally, which I think is uh
bigger story than ten people showing up for
free speech rally and being labeled white supremacists. But first I want to say thank you to our sponsors over at birch gold, so
if you're looking the world right now, it feels chaotic it feels out of control. I I certainly am, if you feel like to

Dot com, slash men, make sure you use the Slash Benz. They know that we sent you if you're looking to Inn

As I say, the media covered this great triumph of the left in Boston. All these white supremacists who weren't really white supremacists, except for apparently one guy. They say forty thousand protesters showed up and it was just a grid
glorious thing. First of all, forty thousand people protesting NEO Nazism is a grand and glorious thing. That's fine, that's great, but to pretend that Antifa did
play a role in Boston is to be silly now. I do want to make a
a slight station here, and I think it's important for Charlottesville in understanding it an entrance that they're a good they're, a good people on both sides in Charlottesville and in the Pro
test crowd again. I'm still waiting to see all the good people in Charlottesville in the torchlight March haven't seen him, but
he says there is violence on both sides. That's definitely true. Now we do have to look at the proportion. So, if you're, looking at the proportion
violent people in Charlottesville on the NEO side, verses, you're. Looking at that proportion of violent people in Charlottesville on the anti for side. I see that as a percentage of the larger group from what I can tell, and maybe I'm wrong about this, but and the information that I can see it was like a large group of the NEO, as proportion were, were ready to go then and then a proportion of the protest,
Antifa was there, but it's not a huge group in Boston. I guess there were thirty three arrests out of forty thousand people that doesn't sound like
until you realize that when you go to Dodger game there are forty thousand people there and there are zero arrests. Thirty three
actually rather sizeable contingent of people getting arrested and even the Boston PD. It's it's amazing that they the duality that the the the the Boston police will engage and they'll say
everybody was peaceful. Everybody was great and I'll say this. There was a lot of talk in the week leading up about bottles being
with you at our offices, and I wanted to make sure that they
that. You had, I have a good eye, the basically it's fall and get at the
So you know we basically wanted them separated in I'm sorry to report. We did have some bottles thrown at our offices that did have your in in a couple of
now were hit with that. They were hit with a lot of stuff today, I'm very
proud of the job they did, and it goes to the professionalism of this department. Ok, okay, so he says that
It's basically a peaceful protest and he says people are flinging bottles of p at the cops and there's tape of all this stuff.
Some tape of a woman with an american flag
Drag and Boston.
Presumably by members of Antifa, you can tell the Antifa folks because they cover their faces because they're committing criminal acts.
Where is watching right now, take a look at what happens to this woman, who is holding an american flag
she's, holding an american flag and approach
sister comes to her drags her along. There pulls her anyway
there it. Let's watch this, you can see her flag one up on the ground. Ok, just delightful people,
that that wasn't the only situation some pro lifers were parent
attacks, there was a journalist tweeted this out these proto
It's rarely and pretty anti for folks just mob some anti abortion protesters of posters yelled into our posters, tell the cops, came and then the anti for one after the police officer. So here's some footage of the anti for
people going at the police officers. Okay. No, this is not the way to promises. This was a bunch of the anti for people on and some of the other protesters
reasonably, I don't know if they're all auntie FI or which other groups there with, but you can see that the violence at this particular event is not coming from the
right and like two premises who apparently will again were explicitly denounced by the organizers of the rally. It was coming from the left, your some more footage of anti for going after the
apps
where to go to get cursing the cops got black on you
something like that. And then you have a trump supporter wearing an israeli flag, told to get the F out of Boston. You just delightful folks.
After I go home and hearing your name donating to everything. You stand against violence.
I know my limits, 2b
I want to show that people shouldn't be afraid to voice or other juices in voice recognition. You should be afraid to go outside and say: you're conservative, that's pretty solid things like this happen and he's right. It is pretty sad that things like that happen
and it wasn't relegated just to Boston. There is an anti, and
supposedly anti white supremacist protest, led by leftist groups in Dallas, and
They are shouting out the cops, not a cop to the clan.
You can hear them. Shouting cops and click go hand in hand into the some of these people again or the anti for folks have got the masks across their face at
now. Why is all this important,
by my showing all this footage of violent and nasty horrible Antifa people. The reason is because, unlike the right,
as universally condemned the NEO Nazis in the alt right and and
disassociate from these people there.
Instream left is who are embracing all of this stuff and
We're using this binary logic again then NEO Nazis are bad. Some Antifa must be ok. This is dangerous. Ok, this is really dangerous. I'm not talking about just
in terms of people cursing at each other yelling at each other. We've been having that for a couple hundred years. I'm talking
dangerous in violent terms,
since serious is violent terms and on to talk about that in just a second. But first I need to say thank you to our sponsors
or at lendingtree. So right now, you're looking,
mortgage you're, looking to buy a house, and so
Can you go and you ask your friend: where do you get your mortgage? They refer you to somebody and you work with that person, but you don't know if you're getting the lowest rate or the best rate you don't know. If you
the best service. That's why? When
street comes in the average lendingtree customer can save twenty thousand dollars over the life.
Of their loan, that is, average ok, which means
most of the huge percentage their customers can save even more
Are you looking for a new mortgage, refi or home equity loan? Lendingtree is the only place where you get up to five real offers from America top lenders, and you
compare them side by side for free. It takes like three minutes have actually gone through the website, just to check it out. It takes no time at all to get a bunch of comparison offers from.
Rain dot com find out how much you can
today, lendingtree dot com slash span, that's lend.
In tree dot com, slash men, don't be ripped off again people work with more.
Brothers, I don't know who they are and then they're surprised when the charges are high, they don't they. They have research
that they talk to their friends, it turns out, they got a really high rate. Well, there's no need
for that, go over to lendingtree dot com, Slash Ben and get all of the best prices compared. So you can get
Stlagainthatslendingtree, that's lendingtree, dot, com, Slash Ben and use the last Benz. They know that we sent you okay, so, as I say,
I don't wanna talk anymore about these fringe movements, the NEO and Anti, for they are fringe movements. One talk instead about whether they're being mainstreamed on the right is it being mainstreamed, are then you're not to be made from? This is a great fear of what
President Trump did last week when he seemed to legitimize the alt right. When you see
suggest there are good people in the crowd with the alt right when he seemed to make a moral equivalence, but
in the protesters and some of the protesters who were protesting with the alt right and the NEO Nazis right that seems to be the problem. People were afraid that this is going to be mainstream.
And the universal condemnation was strong and lasting and loud. There are openly leftist who are saying today and haven't saying now for a week, then Antifa is
The problem remember, this is not just them embracing and viewpoint. This is the
embracing Antifa central contention, which is that violence in the streets is sometimes necessary? Here's that same Dartmouth, professor, we were talking about last week, who wrote an op ed for the Washington
talking about ninety four, is necessary as Mark Braves lecture at Dartmouth College, I think that a lot of people recognize that, when pushed self
this is a legit, am it response to white supremacist, NEO Nazi violence and we've
right, ignoring NEO Nazis. In the past, we've seen how that turned out in the 20s and 30s and the lesson of history is you need to take it with the utmost seriousness before
hi. We've seen the millions of deaths that have come from not taking it seriously enough and we can
that really the way that white supremacy grows. The way that NEO Nazism growth is by becoming legitimate, becoming
stab Lish becoming everyday
a friendly wear khakis instead of hoods
the way to stop. That is
people did in Boston what people did in Charlottesville
the emergency brake and say you can't
This normal
big difference between Confront
fascism and confronting other forms.
A violent, so we can see that
30s and 40s. There was
public opinion to be leveraged by non violent resistance. If you get
just to be powerful enough and government. That's simply not going to listen to the kind of public opinion that nonviolence can generate. That's the argument. They're, not poor resistance in occupied the white supremacist are powerful in government so powerful that we have to go out in the streets of their guns. Listen. I've said for a long time that if government becomes tyrannical,
we ought to have guns in order to protect ourselves but you're, not talking about a government, that's enforcing NEO nazi views, you see
I made the same mistake: here's a headline that CNN actually ran yesterday. Their original.
Headline, and then they changed it because they got backlash from Antifa. It said
asking the leftist Antifa Movement activist seek peace through violence, which
accurate right, it demonstrates the irony of the anti for movement. So what do they do? They updated the peace and they got rid of the last half of the title activists seek peace are bouncing out:
with that, because they wouldn't want to offend Antifa, Kay, representative, Steve Cohen,
who is that it was a democratic represented? I believe he is from the from Tennessee. Yes from Tennessee. I am here he was defending anti for well, it was a quick vacated. Preserve tried to put the blame on both sides. There's! No,
even if they can't a father was there and did things it doesn't they were there because of the and because of the Confederate SAM anyone out March the night before, but those tiki torches? It was reminder of of Crystal Lock in my mind, the nineteen thirty eight German, this terrorism on jewish people in Berlin, and it was also look like Klan rallies where they've used to have big, bonfires and and that phone call
Offices, and so that the whole idea, the fire I mean it was. It was so well,
stage remind people of that and yelling
use will not take our place blood and soil. These were just
the most bone chilling, sounds and chance, and they were in lockstep. Ok
That's true, but so what? In terms of the violence? Why is that justify violence? Again,
As somebody who is an orthodox Jew, I have no fondness for Nazis or Klansman. I spent my entire career if I do not sit in Klansman David, Duke came after me personally last year on Twitter, okay, I'm very much in favor of these movie
disappearing immediately. They're disgusting there
well there horrifying God should spit on them they're they're awful in every way.
It said in a civilized society. You don't get to justify Antifa, just because you don't like stuff that people are saying an
dangerous stuff. The reason it's dangerous stuff is because people who are
I'm only going to attribute violence to rhetoric when the rhetoric explicitly calls for violence. Antifa explicitly calls for violence. What the left is doing now, people
Steve coin. What mainstream leftists are doing? Many of them,
they are now explicitly Pooh poohing violence. When you explicitly poo poo, poo violence, you are going to make it more common.
I want to read you a little bit about God in Everett, Glenn Miller. You probably missed this story ever Glenn Miller, and this according to heavy dot com, is a form,
green with mental health history and whose name '
is the suspect, accused of shooting and killing two Kissimmee FL police officers. A guy named Matthew back certain sergeant Richard SAM Howard,
the police chief says it was an ambush Miller,
was Miller, went by the name on Facebook Malik Muhammad Ali. The only change that recently and
right before he went on a shooting spree killing two cops. He shared a picture of Martin Luther King Junior. That said for this from August 18th
when I said March, I didn't mean forever mother effers shoot back I'll, even wrote with the photo when them Edwards wake up. It's going to be some held to answer, for you only can poke a tie up dog for so long ones. That chain breaks it's over wake up America before it's too late
and then another post said who said racist as America. America is evil and then there were
if post about Trump post about the confess
not even issue and Nazis in Charlottesville Virginia on August 15th, they share to pay.
I video of the Charlottesville clashes in real confederate nazis. I will hurt you
you are the enemy you can run, but you can't hide. So if you have a group of people, this is what Antifa does, who equate the police with the bad guys who equate
conservatives with the bad guys and who openly say that violence is necessary in order to stop the bad guys when you have mainstream people on the left, like Steve Cohen, when you means
people like Michael Eric Dyson, when you,
stream people on the left like Mark Bray at the Washington Post, when have those people making excuses for the
I honestly think violence is going to more common less common. Do you think that it's going get worse or better.
Do you really have so little belief in the police that you don't think the police can stop? The Nazis tend like ten nazis? Do you really believe that the police are in league with them? I'm calling calling
left, as I called on President Trump, I called on the right to disown the alt right. I've been doing it for over a year well, over a year and now, with equal or more
I call on people on the left. You must disown Antifa, you must
just on the violence that is being done in your name, and he was doing it in your name and Democrats aren't disowning. It Democrats aren't as owning it instead.
Focusing in on conservative on confederate rather confederate monuments. Instead of focusing on
Our monuments in those are the real threat to peace. No there's a group in America right now that is openly calling for violence and property destruction and is being done, is being she
hideaway from by members of the mainstream left, and that is
really gross I've, seen some members of the left or willing to sell this stuff.
I've seen some ads in some people were willing to say that Antifa is a problem, but here
I'm afraid of I'm afraid. I'm gonna go to Berkeley on September, fourteenth and and is going to show up and they're going to get violence in the media because they
Their narrative or violence against right
this is justified- the media is going to proclaim that is
a fault in Antifa showed up and got violent. That's what I'm concerned about
I'm concerned somebody's going to get killed. I'm concerned
security guards can get hurt and I'm concerned me
is going to blame my views for that, even though I've been Anti Antifa, an anti altright overtly so for a long time,
which is why, when I speak at Berkeley, the topic that I'm going
speaking on that I'm going to be speaking on is why all
the following? Groups are destroying America, Antifa the right, Altright Blm,
Social justice warriors radical feminists, I'm going to talk about all of these groups and why they're destroying american social fabric I'm going to talk about.
All of that- and
if the media are honest enough to recognize that.
Condemning all the groups. They say ought to be condemned like the alt right
I've been doing so for a year or
they lie, and they say that just because
the Blm is a bad group that espouses bad things that I'm there for a a rightful victim of Antifa,
'cause. I think that will expose the media's agenda. I think that
media decide they are going to target
the stuff that I say just like the stuff that you say your normal conserva they're gonna target. You was a. They said it's hard to me to not to think I'll say a whole hell of a lot considering the fact
there's been no one who's been more anti altright, more anti white supremacist than I have been.
Certainly over the past year by statistics and the bed,
to the left is going to lie about it. Nonetheless, I want to talk about the Confederate monument statue.

All right
and we're back. So that was a let's
Let's move on to what Democrats are really focused on. Are they focus on?
anti the right has been spending weeks. Talking about how white supremacy is evil all
released a statement this morning. Talking about white supremacy is evil
I don't know a lot of right. Wingers we're not saying this other than Pat Buchanan Democrats. However,
boxing on the real issue, and this is such a mistake for them. You know President Trump successfully pivoted from the all right issue, that was that was kind of the thorn in his side. He pivoted instead confederate statues talking about whether confederate monuments
go down and because the left is so radical, they immediately leapt on this and decided to make this the issue. Now, that's very stupid politics. The polls show the vast
he's already. Americans want to keep the confederate statues or the very least, don't care very much, but they've decided to make this their key.
And this demonstrates, I think, the disconnect between a lot of,
people living in Washington DC and New York.
In LA and Chicago, and
people who are living in the rest of the country who frank
don't care very much about these confederate memorials and don't think that they are the worst,
in the world or the cause of a lot of violence,
yeah you're, seeing Democrats push this stuff very hard. The same way, the Democrats pushed really hard in the Washington Redskins issue after rename the team very important we renamed the team they're doing the same thing with confederate
It's now, I think, there's a stronger case to rename it to to get rid of confederate monuments are by far than getting rid of the name of the Washington Redskins. But the left is treating this as though this is the real threat of violence. Twenty four isn't: the real threat of violence. No confederate statues are the real threat of violence, J, John
who is the Secretary of Homeland Security under President Obama. Here's what he had to say
about removing these statues, uh
what alarm. So many of us from a security perspective is that so
of the statues. The confederate monuments are now modern day becoming symbols and rallying points for,
nationalism for NEO Nazis, for the KKK
and this is most alarming. We fought a world war against Nazism. The KKK
rain terror on African Americans for generations
and so a number of Americans, rightly Republican and Democrat, are
concerned and very alarmed- and I
those in cities and states were taking down a lot of these monuments,
for reasons of public
the hand and security, okay. So here's my question: he was the Secretary of Homeland Security for the last four years of the Obama administration. Why did he take down in the mine at the all? Right was doing this before? Why did he take in any of those monuments? And the answer is because it's the
left, seeking to lump in many many members, the mainstream West, seeking to lump in support for confederate monuments without right, ism and white supremacy. Again, I think, there's a very strong.
Is that some of these things should come down? I don't know why there's Jefferson, Davis Highways in Arizona
I do know. A lot of these monuments were erected in the middle of the civil rights movement as sort of a backlash against the civil rights movement, which really is gross. I mean, if you're wrecked, I confess
memorial in the middle of the civil rights movement because you're attempting to say something about civil rights, then that's pretty disgusting.
These monuments went up in like one thousand nine hundred and sixty so not one hundred years old, they're, not part of the historic S or anything.
They're going up in states like Arizona that wasn't even existence at the time of the civil war, so I think that's a problem that said this idea that these are flash points to. This is high priority for the United States. It's sort of like the are
even after the evil. Dylan storm roof shut up a black church that the key issue was whether people should flag confederate flag on their truck
and the answer was. This was not a major issue five minutes ago. Why is it a major issue now if it is a major issue that we should have this discussion outside the context of a red
Michael shooting someone here's the problem when you use radicals who shoot people as an
used to have broader conversations, then you
Sup dismissing entirely benign people. You end up hurting entirely benign people in the process. So I'll give you an example for the leftist in the audience,
people who are on the left and the audience liberals in the audience, after the shooting the congressional baseball shooting their people like me?
So I think we're intellectually honest enough to say I'm not blaming Bernie Sanders for this. His rhetoric is not something that I want to blame for
a guy going and shooting congresspeople we've always had rhetoric. That's been very heated in american politics.
I disagree with everything. Bernie Sanders has to say. I think that no
should ever give him a pudding cup. I don't think it's important but to say that
we're going to have now referendum on
Sanders is language, because in that case, when I shot some people, if we are going to judge
grasscity of an ideology or the morality of a rhetoric by the people who are outside
the realm of the normal, then we're going to base
I have to all shut up because there a lot of crazy.
Allowed, therefore set off by a lot of crazy things, and so
This is my problem with with having this. Is this conversation in a broader context
just the Charlottesville is some sort of representation of the vast majority of people
who want to stop the confederate statues from going down. This is why Trump was smart to pivot to the confederate statue issue, because the vast majority of people,
who are protesting on that Friday night a couple of weeks ago in Charlottesville Ford, the robbery
statue were NEO now
these Klansman Alt Righters, the vast majority of
Cross, the country who don't want
Really statues come down, or none of those things, and there I think Trump is correct in- is smart to to pay that, and I think what the idiotic to follow him in that have it they're not gonna, do themselves any political.
It's amazing as low as trump sinks in the polls. Everybody keep saying out. Trump's failing in the polls,
falling apart it from falling apart? Then, why is it that he had like thirty nine percent
already in Wisconsin won the state anyway, there's still a Democrat who is going to have to run against him and the reason
cracks are having trouble is because the recruiting radicals to run in their party people like Kamala Harris,
If they ran Joe Biden, somebody who is relatively radical on politics but is perceived as moderate, he would want President Trump, but instead they're looking to the left wing of their party they're looking to two people who pander
and that's not going to do them any service. Okay, so in other news, Steve Bannon is out of the White House. This broke in the middle
of the show on Friday and I've had it
to sort of collect my thoughts on what this means. I don't think it means
However, lot I think
it had already been marginalized at the White House. Thank you. We had very little input at the White House. Already him going back to bright part doesn't make
very much of a difference Alex Marlow, whose the editor in chief over there I gotta say Alex, is probably miserable this morning because Steve is not the easiest person to work with. But that said,
Steve heading back to Breitbart, isn't markedly going to change things other than it's sort of a green light to bright back to start attacking all the people who surround Trump. That's going to be the move at they're, going they're going to move to attack Gary Cohn,
to attack Jovanke right, Jerdan, Vanka, Kushner they're going.
They're going to attack Hr Mcmaster, which they've been doing with alacrity for some time now,
it's just going to become louder and more strident van is,
list, of course, that he's trying to help Trump but Bannon Bannon cares about Ban ban, doesn't care about the future of right, but he doesn't care about their traffic
The only thing the banning cares about really is being perceived.
It's a big man on campus, and that means that he has to present him
is it a sort of populist hero? In fact, after he left on Friday? He he headlined right down
didn't editorial meeting in the first headline that went up. Was this in giant Orange letters Stephen King
returns home to Breitbart NEWS and then in quotes populist hero. Well, I mean nothing
filling the merges expectations of you there for going
I can immediately running a headline about how wonderful you are, but what that mean?
This is the band and is going to sort of present himself as the voice of morality from the populist right and that's going to be a thorn for Trump.
Little Bit is going to be a major thorn.
I think so I think Danny knows better than to alienate a lot of the Trump Centric voters, but it from ever become so so vulnerable that bright part can make a difference. Then you could see Bannon and revenge move sort of moving to hurt him
Do I think it makes a huge difference inside the administration know. It's just another indicator that this administration was never conservative. Ok,
as much as I dislike, see, Bannon personally, Steve Bannon is
right wing on immigration,
Bannon is right. Wing on Israel, Steve Bannon
right wing on national security, so all of those
things have sort of been moved off of the off the spectrum a little bit and then was more isolationist and right wing. I should send on national security, but he was very much in favor of a military build up. A lot of that has now been moved off to the side.
Trump's administration for all the people who thought he was gonna, be the great conservative house on. Let me just point out the people.
Surrounding him? Are entirely Democrats generals there
not a single major registered Republican who surrounds the president of the United States in his inner circle.
Hr Mcmaster is a general John Kelly,
is a general Jordan upon were registered Democrats until five minutes ago
Khan was a registered Democrat. Steven Newton was a registered Democrat. All of the people who surround him all
our closest to him are either generals or registered Democrats. Okay. That is not going to bode well for
The only thing that might save the the conservative agenda truly
that number one there's a there's. A republican Congress and number two Democrats will not work with Trump. They hate Trump,
watch it they're willing to cut off their nose in spite of their face. The fact is that if Democrats were small,
but they would immediately do is begin going to President Trump and saying, let's get some of your legislation done and they start pushing for a single payer healthcare and get Trump to sign it. They start pushing for infrastructure bills and they get him to sign it. They start pushing for tax hikes and get
it more than willing to go to war with Mcconnell and Ryan. He's already shown will
to do that, so how far left is Trump move is not dictated right now by the Republican Party, it's dictated by a democratic party that doesn't want to work with Trump
quite fascinating, ok time for some things I like and then some things that I hate so things that I like so unfortunate.
Jerry Lewis died over the weekend? Is ninety four years old growing up? We we liked Jerry Lewis movies, we're not french, but we we like Jerry, Lewis, movies
I one of my favorite Jerry Lewis, films. I is very underrated. Film called Cinderfella
and it's a reverse of the Cinderella story, except he is Cinderella right, he's a guy and he falls in love with the princess and it
Jerry Lewis was was great physical comedian. This is one of the scenes from Center fella, where he's sitting in the kitchen, his parents, his a step mother, has made him
Basically, they made an he's sitting in the kitchen after serving them dinner listening to the radio, and this is sort of classic Jerry Lewis,
are the ratings? Have this movie the count Basie music?
it's very kid friendly this particular company and there's a lot of good stuff now, showing my daughter, who's. Three and a half a clip from this movie. There's a scene where he does a dance with the princess Anne count. Basie's band is there. This is part of his transformation. Is that count? Basie band shows up as part of his transformation into
I and it's the it's a little bit slow, but they're a couple scenes in it that are really really funny so center fell. I highly recommend it. Okay, I
things that I like this catch in the junior Little League World Series is just incredible, and this is one of the best
I've ever seen in any league period. Watch the centerfielder go back on this ball. It's amazing, go on a wild pitch is just a really tough way to go home.
Raggedy driven back he's at the
looking at the junior league wow. That's also why the fence he shouldn't be tuna. Half feet high in the lakes is good, but wow great catch. Can I know
we are, but that's a fantastic catch up anytime. There's a good piece of baseball, put it on the show, ok time for
things that I hate so just to show you how evil a lot of the neo now
these are in the whites. The white are in some. The alt right members are the Charlottesville rally.
Organizer actually tweeted this out. Yes, Jason Kessler! The piece of garbage who was punched in the face at the rally said: Heather higher was a fat
testing communist communist until ninety four million looks like it was pay back time, and then you link directly to you guys at the daily Stormer, the neo site, yeah again, not a lot of very fine people. Doing this, not a lot of very fine people involved with that particular rally. Horrifying
Are flying in every sense of the word? Ok other things that I hate Jerry, Falwell Junior. It was on tv
and Jerry Falwell Junior has been the loudest evangelical advocate for President Trump. He is, of course, the dean of Liberty.
University. I know we have a lot of listeners over liberty, wanna, say hi to all of the folks who listen over at Liberty University. I'm sorry that Jerry Falwell Junior said something this dumb over the weekend. Here is Jerry
Hello Junior on,
He sees this week talking about President Trump's response to Charlottesville the
groups here, then, a by name as the evil,
because what happened in Charlottesville, more than
sees the KKK and white supremacism. That's what I thought was bald well well! Well, let me tell you what he said the let's go back to this. He said they were very fine people on both sides. Do you believe there were very fine? I have no idea. He has inside information that I don't have. I don't know if they were his store.
Is there who were trying to preserve some statues. I don't but, but he had, he had information I didn't have, and I believe that
spoke with him. He knew that something he saw medios of who was there. I think he was talking about
what he had seen information that he had. I don't have okay,
this idea that he had information. That dry falls. You didn't have enough by. He said what he said: I'm kind of sick of attributing the President Trump information that is just not act.
Yeah. I don't see if that information is not. There is not there end of story so enough,
If you're going to offend President Trump depending on the merits, don't make up stuff like he's, some omnipotent omniscient
seeing God's eye it's nonsense. I still
I would like to see the evidence of the great people that were there on that Friday night, that President Trump was apparently talking about, because I don't actually see that evidence. Ok, so we'll be back in my president, Trump supposedly
big speech tonight in Arizona a lot of stuff happening tonight. Actually, President Trump is supposed to give a speech about his new Afghanistan policy. Will talk about that plus president Trump
close to do a rally in Arizona some violence outside is expected, so I'm sure that things will get more heated. Not less will talk about all of it. I'm Ben Shapiro! This
Ben Shapiro show.
