In a shock move republican speaker of the House, Paul Ryan will be retiring. Mark Zuckerberg gets grilled on the hill. Investigation continues to proceed. I'm going compare this adventure bureau shall, So this week is courageous, easy lots of stuff happening this week. The FBI is the president of the United States, personal lawyers office two days ago, and now the speaker of the house, poorer fences that he will not be running for real action and that he will in fact stepped down from his position as speaker after that, remember elections and that he will not run for reelection, meaning he will leave office in January of twenty nineteen. That is a major developments plus mark Zuckerberg. To the hill and gets it grilled in historic fashion. But before we get to any as things first, I want to say thanks to our sponsors over at lending club, so we all need a helping hand. Sometimes the reality is sometimes you just need a little bit of money, whether its unexpected repairs or medical expenses or credit card debt and that's weren't lending club dotcom comes in so lending club gives you access to

Almost of up to forty thousand dollars against lending club dot com, slash bending, you can check your rate for free right now, use that slash ban. So they know that we sent you alright self, and the big breaking news on this Wednesday is the speaker of the House and Paul Ryan and has announced that he will indeed be stepping down from his position as speaker of the house. Now he's not gonna do that until after the election, he also will not be running for real action in his district. He announced it, this morning- and I hear is what it sounded like. You realize something when you take this job, it's a big job at a lot riding on you and you feel it but you also know that this is a job does not last forever

you realize that you hold the office for just a small part of our history, so you better make the most of it it's fleeting and that inspires. You do big things and on that score, I think we have achieved a hack. A lot myself. Paul Ryan is, of course, going to say that, because he's leaving the truth, The Paul Ryan has achieved some things he has not achieved. Others is great. Dream was entitlement reform. He thought this can be able to save the country from the oncoming train, that is social Security, Medicare Medicaid Collapse, which will be happening over the next ten to twenty years. That didn't happen. He did get tax cuts past. Good move he was able to pass through occasion of the individual mandate, which is obviously a good thing that there has been able to to get rid of some of the regulations that the Obama administration put in place through the Congressional Review ACT process he's gonna. Flak as well, and have a lot of thoughts on why it is that speaker, Ryan is going, but first I think we have to review exactly what Speaker Reign was because today, you're gonna hear a lot of people who are on the right celebrate

Paul Ryan suggesting the pall wrangling going is going to change the way the Congress does business. He was a milk. Toast He needs to go now. Listen, I don't think Paul Ryan read everything as well as things could be run. How could you the man, cut deals of petty Murray when he was when he was not speaker of the house, and then he cut a deal with Democrats to do pass at one point: three trillion dollar omnibus package: that there is no excuse passing, but it is important to note that, for all add bills the Paul Ryan past. He also passed a good bill that was rejected by Miss Mcconnell. So I think a lot of the ira- that's been directed at Paul Ryan really ought to be rapid image Mcconnell, because here's how the process works, Paul Ryan would pass very conservative bell, throw conservative house and then go to the Senate and therewith die and then what Colonel would pass a different version Nobel another question I'm all right, do you stead fed you stand fast. How much rekindle that you're not gonna pass anything the Ceta passes dieter president from they're, not gonna pass them. That he wants to sign or

you go along to get along, take the hit on behalf of Mitch, Mcconnell and now you're seen as somebody who believes the same things that Mitch Mcconnell believes on spending and believes the same things in terms of fiscal priorities. The president from does, if Paul Ryan can be faulted for anything it's that he didn't hold much more colonels and president from speed to the fire. But let's be real about this, the same people who think that meant that Paul Ryan is indeed a military. In a weakling would have been found angry at him. If president from had not gotten things on his desk, They are blamed right anyway, so in all of priority for people who have not gotten from legislative agenda past. It goes like this trump at this happened list. Because it has not had a solid legislative agenda that has been pushed by the White House in any serious way. The turnover of the white has been too high. The term over on topics has been too high. The president has not uses bully particularly stump for legislation in any real I'm serious way. Any isn't really been part of the negotiations, so the buck stops Trump. This second I'm told him, Poland terms, blade has to be much Mcconnell, because Mitch, Mcconnell is one with fifty one senders and he's been unable to get serious

they conservative legislation through the Senate. A third The list is Paul Ryan and yet people seem to reverse this polarity. People seem to believe the Paul Ryan is the real problem here. When he really is not an Mitch. Mcconnell is seconds. What's in that trunk, of course, can ever be when for anything, because we can't blame the President of the United States when its legislative acts that doesn't get passed up. How This is Ryan. I think some is. I think a lot is not second it's important to know who is going to Paul Ryan play, so maybe it'll be some money from freedom caucus. Maybe somebody who is more overtly blow obviating, then Paul Ryan. All people like guy, maybe it'll, be somebody who's. A more compelling speaker, charismatic leader, then Paul Ryan, and I would suggest that that's gonna have to be it is because the high likelihood is that the blackens, owing to lose the house and twenty eight in which means that a debate to be somebody who's a fighter. It better, be somebody who's going to try and obstruct Nancy policies agenda as much as humanly possible. Considering that great likelihood is Paul Ryan will be succeeded as speaker not by another Republican, but by Nancy

a policy which is a frightening bought in all of its various permutations, but person who replaced Paul Ryan, you have to wonder whether person is really going to a lot better than Paul Ryan. Give the fact that Paul Ryan did not worse than John Vainer, he did not do worse than any Hastigt heed not you worse than than late stage, New Gingrich too, to be frank, so that all of the union all right being the world's crap. You speak. Writing is untrue. I think that use the world's best speaker no answer on things. Temperamental cut out for the job. Paul Ryan want the job and I've been having met Paul Ryan. Now I don't Paul Ryan is is somebody who was fit for the job because, to be a good speaker of the house requires a couple of things. One either have to be a very candy manipulator if to be a typical Neil type as Democrat from the nineteen eighties, who emulated his members manipulator Republicans. In order to get his agenda past, you have to be very good at manipulating p, and fitting pieces together give to be more of a miracle. Temperament a sort of attack who's that able to slowly walked legislation through your Congress. That was not Paul Ryan or you have to

a great visionary leader, somebody's This matter. Who has an agenda that is backed by your own caucus? Those like new, Rich and ninety. Ninety four or Nancy Policy in two thousand six, somebody who came in with a whole list of agenda items that the clock is agreed on and you could pass those into law as fast as humanly possible. Paul Ryan obviously did not have that sort of cohesion inside his own caucus, and he is also not a particularly cares. Magic leader. You not somebody who stands up and people say I want to follow that guy into battle. Paul Ryan, just was not suited for the job. Reason the Paul Ryan is announcing that he's leaving right. Another couple reasons: one is because you want some more time with his family, but could have announced this after the election. He couldn't wait until after the election then announced. Listen, I'm not gonna be speedily more timely thing, and I'm not interested in running for real I wanna go home where I want my family moved to Washington, DC and work for American Enterprise Institute or something the reason the details. This now is twofold: one Ryan no that is blue wave is coming located. The index, These are very good. The Democrats when the house- and it is quite right-

one day when the Senate, as well in the truck tumors than you send it majority leader and that Nancy closer. Is the New House Majority leader that she's the speaker of the house, rather in that that's up a really bad cycle for going into twenty twenty, which all talk about in just a minute. But if you look at the list of Republicans who have left AIDS, a pretty lengthy as the Republicans while retiring this term, because they don't want to exist in the Nancy Pelosi Congress. A tray gouty is Bob Good latch, abhorrence, darling, Ronnie, freely housing Darrell, Ayesha, Lamar, Psmith, ITALY. Under us. Let us read: Lehtinen Charlie Dent did Riker Patsy bury Frank, Woven Labianca when Jenkins SAM Johnson, junk Duncans had podium, trot, ran, Costello bushes or Break Harper Tom Rudy. That's a list publicans and the house, how retiring this term, that doesn't include the ones for retiring, because various scandals, there is a Republican and Pennsylvania who retired overset scandal. There's a Republican in Texas Blake their hold, whose retiring overset scandal, ok there lot of republican stepping down, because what they see is that the poles don't look good. So, if you're Paul Ryan and your figure

ok, we're in serious trouble here where they were probably not lose the house and is really because of all right, they're gonna lose the house gave they lose the house. The high likelihood is as the President of the United States has incredibly low approval ratings and because Democrats hate him with a passion equal to the fiery burning. Can it hatred of a thousand sons they they they hate, President Trump. And that means that they're gonna show up in November. Paul Ryan. Here's what you don't want you lose in November, and then everybody turns rather say it's your fault, Paul! It's your fault that you lost even take. Why would you bother sticking around for that? Why would you rather doing that? In Alright, I say: listen I'll! Keep fundraising, but this there's not on me and I'm not the one who has a forty two percent approval operating in a time of a booming economy and no serious foreign wars in the offing. Right. That's that's not me, something Ryan, is making a political move, and that's why he is making statement, are also. He says I think, he's probably true. He doesn't want to lie to his constituents about who's going to serve out his term. If he wins reelection in November, in his district, what you likely wood and then

retires. In January, then he's been fitting to his constituents all longest delivered those people. So I mean something there as well now than the rule, that's going round. The Rhine is leaving because Trump sort of defeated Ryan see this at all it's important, a measure that France sing achievements have largely been outside of the move of the of the: U S embassy to Jerusalem. They ve been done before Paul Ryan image Mcconnell by tax cuts were appalled. Find baby The river, the revocation of the individual mandate, that was a TED crews baby the justice Corset and the the congressional, the congressional approval from judicial nominees that as much Mcconnell Sophronia, talk about Paul Ryan standing away from way agenda. There is really no evidence. The Paul Ryan has stand the way of transgenic. That's been Paul Ryan trying to pass from its, and he just can't get it through the that is because he's not a senator is not the Senate Majority leader I will say, however, that is pretty clear that Ryan Leaving does represent a triumph of trompe an attitude that people have been mistaking the gaps in policy between Trump

Ryan for the serious gap that is not the serious gap in the Republican Party right now. The serious gap in the Republican Party is the gap between the attitudes now people I've seen this is a binary choice between Paul Ryan sort of polite, won't and Donald Trump punch everything, including the baby right are the choices UK there we'll around. You can do whatever you want you can. You can be why I'm crazy in an bombastic and that's the way, Europe politics or you can be milk, toast and Jack Kemp, like in your approach to politics think that's correct. I think there is a middle ground. Where are you are very aggressive when you need to be very aggressive and your polite when that possibility is available and not something that I try to pursue in my own sort of political rhetoric. But if the Public and party had to choose. One is pretty clear that debase chose trompe and rhetoric of Paul Ryan rhetoric- because they are very angry and their very angry, because they very frustrated in the rear frustrated, because, no matter how many Republicans they elected seems, their agenda is never passed. And they can win. Then I'm all right, but the truth is the Paul Ryan is just ahead of the Caucasus. I promise you Paul Ryan were the head of a caucus that we're all freedom.

This guy's, then, though, the agenda would look very different more thoughts on Paul right and just a second first. I wanna say thanks to our sponsors, over at bull and branch, you haven't been getting enough sleep and you think that it's because the temperature room, isn't writer, you think it's because your mattress isn't right well have you thought that, maybe just maybe it might be the sheets fiercely billing? You don't tend to think about this. These sleep on very often because who thinks about cheat or who gives a shit, but the fact is that oh and branch, ensures that you have the best sheets possible bowling branch These sheets are just incredible there, one hundred percent organic cotton. There, three experts, didn't sleeping on them after I got bored, entry to legitimately had a throughout all the other she to my house and by only bowler branches, because they are that good. They are that comfortable and to get you some and right now you get fifty bucks off your first set of sheets, bull and branched outcome, Promo code Ben! That's bull and branch, dot, com, promo code. They make everything from getting to blankets and is made from pure one hundred percent organic cotton. So they start out soft and they get even saw.

Overtime, you buy directly from them, so you're, essentially paying wholesale prices are really nice that she can come stay at the house in about bollandbranch sheets are only a couple of hung, that may sound expensive. It is not for something you're sleeping on every night and They are really tremendous. They hold up in the wash as well bull and branch. Dotcom promo code then get fifty bucks after first set of she'd, be oh L, L M branch that calm promo code then check it out, I now bowling ranch, not comparable Taliban get fifty bucks off and let them know that we sent you as well. Ok, so a few more thoughts, on Paul Ryan and ended. It so again Ryan's priorities were never backed by by Trump or his fellow legislator, so before a judge Ryan and what he could pass on, what he couldn't? You have to look at the carcass where he is only the head of the carcass. If you're, the head of a hawk, is that look like market where everybody was marked meadows there everybody origin, Jordan, then they began in different legislation, but the job of the speakers to put all of those areas components together and very often

was able to do. That is just that. The sun never passed any of that stuff. So all of this bodes very ill for Republicans. Obviously going into twenty eighteen and beyond the pole, show that there's gonna be historic: youth wave coming in twenty eighteen. According to her, bringing Harvard University Institute of politics. This wave of voters, eight, twenty? Nine is when we very strong. Fifty three percent probably are definitely will be voting and of those most likely about fifty five per sent leaned democratic. Twenty one percent favour Republicans points. That is a massive imbalance. Early among your borders, we're going to show up in real big numbers coming up in November plus, if look at the generic ballots right now. The generic ballots do not look good. The generic bell- four Republicans the average. The real capacity Holding average is seven points and it is growing again, so it had shrunk down to three points in the quintet Blackpool April six April, mind and in the last couple of holes. One from Rasmussen and one from the economist is backed up to five and eight point respectively.

Given all the new surrounding president Trump, I wouldn't be surprised if that blows up even bigger. It's it's not be the year for Republicans just by data. It really is not Maybe the republicans- and this raises the question about president from so what is present. From going to do if he is faced with what say Nancy Policy in the house, so the good shot is the Nancy policy will move here in the house, knowing that it will pass through the Senate, and that is the best shot here. There's me a bunch of investigations. Toby investigations from here till the end of time and president Crumple be dragged through the mud. So for all the hatred of there, working party, the lot of people are evident. Sing inside the conservative movement recognise that if you like Trump and you're frustrated the Republican Party, then your worst move here, your worst It will our democratic over the house. They'll, do nothing be a thorn in the side. For president from no question, If you dont, like President Trump and you're, a conservative then recognise that you need a conservative congress, because the worst thing that could happen- yours, Nancy Pelosi takes over the house and Chuck tumor takes over the Senate and then with them, are negotiating with president from President Trump

sees himself as a great deal maker. You can easily see him walking through the front doors of the of the White House, Armand with losin tumor, passing a bunch of what, this priorities because Trump is to be seen as again signs things. We need Europe Working Congress. The fact that we are unlikely to get one is deeply. Disturbing and I M really really troubling. Ok, so I have you more thoughts on this also, I do when you talk about the continuation of the Trump investigation it so well, jump into the Trump investigation, because there are some breaking pieces of news with regard it that so, first of all Ellen Dershowitz come out and he says that targeting trumps lawyer should worry everybody so as recalled On Monday, we recall back on Monday, present in trumps, personal lawyers office was rated by the FBI. Aunt Ellen Dershowitz has a p over the hill. About this he says: there's much speck The offices in hotel room of President from Slaughter, Michael Coal, to obtain a search warrant prosecutors must demonstrate to adjust ask. It must demonstrate to a judge. They have probable causes

leave the premises to be searched contained evidence of prime must also space. By the area to be searched, the items to be seized and insertion of computers. The word searches to be used, at least that's the kind, additional requirement in theory, especially where the sixth amendment right to council is involved in additional the general fourth member right against unreasonable searches, but he says, the fire walls and the so called tainted with respect to prevent the FBI from looking at documents that they're not supposed to look at these experience troubles in the past. He says it's an imperfect protection of important constitutional rights. He says: that's why justice depend and officials must be careful to limit the searching of lawyers offices to compel cases involving serious crimes. We don't know at this point what the process looking for, but if it relates to payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels. That would not seem justified so potentially intrusive, a surge of coins, Conventual Blair, client files, so A Dershowitz is defending president from you, ve been defending him on legal grounds for awhile here, suggesting that as an interim has been unfairly targeted, which I think in large measure he has. But all of this is is

leading to you know a serious crisis in inside american government. There's a lot of talk today, whether President Tromp is actually going to go ahead and fire robber, Mahler or other he's going to fire rod rose those are the two rumours that are on the table, so firing by the way would not stop the investigation to Cones Office recognised that was referred out to the. U S, attorneys as in the southern district of New York, so no longer under robber mowers, purview, so prison from could fire Mueller owed have no impact on that? No just on the russian collusion Investigation, which, by most accounts at this point is turning out to be a sort of an empty bag only so far as cortical getting trump. There's no evidence of this pointed there is serious collusion between the trunk campaign and any one in the russian government. The only people we ve been indicted, have been indicted for lying to the Afghan people- George Papadopoulos car page, so not been indicted, despite the five warrant against him and so from strive to to fire. Mother, I think, would be misplaced. I think that's probably away if time, apparently according to New York Times peace, the president was so furious. After seeing news about subpoenas issue,

the special council a few months back, then he told them as was in no uncertain terms that Mr Miller's, in that, the Asian had to be shut down, this when, when Miller is going after Deutsche Bank and as a trump has repeatedly been considering firing Mahler. He said the other day that he was so considering firing Miller. Obviously, that is something is considering now, apparently he's considering firing, ROD, Rosen's dean ROD rose. The scene is, of course, they will oversee smaller and overseas rest of the Department of Justice guards. Somebody's trump related investigations So CNN was reporting that the president's interest in releasing the deputy attorney general was heightened after the office of his personal, where Michael corn was raised by the FBI. The CNN report noted that such a move, goods special council robber mothers quickly escalating investigation to Trump and Russia, but that of course, would not stop what's going on, in the southern district of New York, obviously Trump has been very good. Critical of rod, Rosen steam to this point, Vivian, instigation I think, is outside of prince capacity to contain it at this point through firing, and I think, frankly, that

mistake for him to issue these viruses. If it turns out that these offices come up with thing. There will be plenty of people who defend him myself included. I've been defending among the russian collusion stuff well over a year. Now, when it comes to the Michael Code issue there are gonna, be too She's involved, one is: was there any sure, criminal activity and to adjust to rise to the level of the impenetrable. These are two separate questions and they're, not the same question, because it is quite passed and the President of the United States was involved in a campaign financed violation. That's possible thing, it's things out of the rubble possibility by any stretch of the imagination, but does that right? so the level of a high crime, a misdemeanor subjects, impeachment little hearted, decades, simply because this, a one hundred thirty thousand dollar payment that violated campaign, finance and Barack Obama. Two thousand eight election cycle can and two million dollars in such campaign violations. Nobody was impeached over that, so I must present in trouble. As president of the United States was actively involved in a conspiracy to cover up campaign financed violation than I

but it can be hard to claim impeachment, even if it turns out that Michael Coal is dear violating campaign finance laws. So that's it This in the end. In that investigation, I wanna get to mark Zuckerberg here in just a second first, I want to say thank you transponders over at movement, so movement Doesn't just u watches anymore. So, first of all, movements watches just untasted we'll start there look at this watch has just beautiful. Rightly they did it simply. Design is really classy. It's it's really durable.

Join the movement and the empty that comes Shapiro. That also lets them know that we sent you ok. So the other big news,

Well hell, aside from the ouster of Paul Ryan, aside from the continuum investigation into the personal way of the president of the United States. If you didn't have enough news, Mark Zuckerberg was on hell yesterday, Mark Zuckerberg had been called on the yesterday, because of all the claims that privacy have been violated by Facebook, that, if you publicly post information, and then that information was scraped by an outside company, meaning they were using that data in order to market to you on origin, generate voter profiles, for example by Cambridge Analytical- and this was some sort of terrible evil crime now I think that a lot of problems of social media- Really do I've been highly critical of social media. Many times will be again in just a moment, but if you really think that the big problem Facebook is that you publicly post information than companies, look at it. You're stupid go you're done the big problem on Facebook is at times, people are being manipulated by fake moon rose. I have you really think I Democrats, than Hillary Clinton would have one, except for these seven adds run by Russian bought in the Sudan,

sixteen election. You crazy you're out your mind, and people are so crazy. Now that there is, big story. They came out of those from NBC News yesterday about a video those views about two hundred fifty thousand times as a supposed sex tape, including Hillary Clinton, has taken whose obviously because number one, who ever want to see any of that on camera, but number two. Is that really like was that shifting votes, because we're five minutes away from that Feinstein calling the head of porn hob up to the hill, to explain why Hillary Clinton LAW, since there is a distribution on poor and have a fake Hillary Clinton, sex tape, yeah. All this nonsense: the real power. That social media is that social media are now playing a gatekeeper function that were not meant to play social media. We're supposed to be like a phone line. There are supposed to be a platform, here's the way that this works. When you pick up the phone- and you call buddy. What is said over that phone line is not the responsibility of rising or agency or spreads. Ok is the responsible give the person on the phone. Facebook was supposed to be more like the phone line it wishes to play

When you put your information up there, you put your news stories up, their people can engage. They cannot engage their free choice. Instead, Facebook, now interposed itself tween its own users and information that people want to say this very happy, the mind for a long time. They were doing it back and twenty sixteen when they were talking about shifting their algorithms that certain trending topics were not allowed to trend. Conservative trending topics were not allowed to trend on Facebook, and now, of course, they shifted. Their algorithms to mostly benefit local news and establish mainstream media outlets and against alternative new sources like Daily Wire, where this is why if you're, watching the show right now, you're wondering where your daily wire updates, when you need to go and check out your own settings right now and reset your settings, because Facebook has has, as tacitly and in without your permission, gone in check. The algorithm so that you are not seeing our updates anymore because they say that our new site is somehow not as credible as CNN or the New York Times. Would you just absurd? If but right now is even bearing which outlets punishing. I chose a facebook is,

obviously penalize in certain outlets, but it's not explaining what exactly paralyzing. According the Tec WEBS the outline, conservative and right wing publishers were hit hardest by the new algorithm change value. The agent numbers of most predominant, liberal publishers remained unaffected, and now Peter has enough daily collars reporting that Facebook does not intend to identify which media outlets it helps in which it hurts according to accompany spokesperson spoke to the Daily Collar NEWS Foundation. This post person argued that if the company I feel that it would not give people a clear picture of facebook. Adding we ve made changes to news we to help people meaningfully connect with friends and family first. This means public pages of all types are going to experience declines across Facebook. Medical pages in part, as a news pages like other public pages, have experienced declines, but there are it declines across the political spectrum, except for the fact that that's not true, except for the fact, If you look at the mainstream media outlets, they have not lost engagement right, the only it's that losing engagement are particularly conservative ones. So all of this nurse yesterday were grilling mark Zuckerberg on growing again tonight and some more

important note. If we're gonna have people grow, Mark Zuckerberg, they have to have one's use a computer, a lot of these questions. Look like theirs. Headed by my ninety three year old grandmother, a bunch of people who are asking more exact about, but the questions. Basically, the exchange sounded. Something like this senator or in hatch, eight thousand years old, either reading off a piece of paper written by a twenty three year old or asking questions that have nothing to do with Facebook. Or Senator Dick Durban, whose a complete idiot, who probably never use Facebook sitting there in saying so Mark Zuckerberg, you have a book full of faces, and then my secretary, looking at him in in wonderment and amusement is what since in the average age of the senators were questioning mark Zuckerberg is fifty seven acres hold out a rip People were fifty seven. It is to say that the chair, they are really fluent in social media is pretty well

Tracy Stupidity, is like Dick Durban asking Mark Zuckerberg wasted at his hotel last night. There's a thing that actually happened, room which was German, Mr Circa bird. Would you be comfortable sharing with us, the name of the hotel? You stayed in less than no- and this is one of the things that so incredibly stupid. I saw a woman of one of the many complaints by Democrats has been that if you publicly post information than people see that information is a violation of privacy, more exactly would not have to under facebooks rule reveal where he went to his hotel last night into unnatural, determining even getting up a determined. I know that how we socking about there were a couple of people who actually went after supper, on matters that actually do matter they, so they there really a couple of matters that that are really serious, one is the amount of political bias at Facebook need the political by of the people who actually implementing in writing the algorithms and the other thing, that's really important is whether

air is whether whether Facebook is a platform on whether Facebook is a publisher and their matters because that you are eighteen, Sprint, Verizon discussion. If the phone company start acting like a sense if they are buzzing out what you're saying your friends they become, responsible for what you say to your friends. Their actual at like we're daily wire. We added four pieces we purchase. Oliver, rose from a service called getting images said there are licensed because we're I wish I were responsible for the content we post. If, however, the if, if we use a particular internet service, that internet service is not responsible for the content, we posters just a platform. Facebook has presented itself as a platform. Which means there not legally responsible for, for example, miss you copyrighted content or slander. But if they are responsible for what being put up if they are controlling what you see in what you here, then suddenly they need to be treated like any other news out what they needed to be treated like and b C or MSNBC or CBS Cnn, or than Europe Times of the daily wire those are two separate questions. One was the political bias and one

was the fact that Facebook is playing sensor which would actually submit liability with these lines of questioning were engaged in by Republicans and he's really only two lines of questioning the matter to the first line of questioning about uncle buys about Facebook cracking down on conservatives. This was pushed by Senator TED crews from Texas and a full disclosure. When one centre accrues visited our offices- and I interviewed him- how we had a pretty some states. The discussion about exactly this topic, so good for centre accrues. We're going from our Zuckerberg on this here is ears. Accrues illuminating. The issue of record on this result could work. I will say there are a great many Americans who I think, our deeply concerned that that Facebook and other tech companies are engaged in a pervasive pattern a bias and political censorship. There have been numerous instances with Facebook in May of twenty. Sixteen is MOTO reported that Facebook had purposely and routinely suppressed conservative stories from trending news pudding stories about C pack, including stories about met.

Including stories about the lowest learner, iris scandal, including stories about Glenn back in addition to that Facebook has initially shut down. The chick filet appreciation day page has blocked opposed to fire Fox NEWS reporter has blocked over two dozen catholic pages and most recently blocked trumps supporters diamond and silks page with one point: two million Facebook followers after determining their continent, bran were quote unsafe to the community, to a great the Americans. That appears to be a pervasive pattern of political bias. Do you agree with us is our cover. It would go on to basically say that it is fair to say the Silicon Valley is far left, leaning and that suspicions little by us or not unwarranted, so he basically admitted that. So that's that's important. Also, it is important to note along the same lines. Zuckerberg, who is now proclaiming their facebook ought

we, the arbiter of what constitutes good speech and bad speech, I can't find what good speech and bad speech are, so he was questioned by Ben. Ass about specifically this, and he was asked about defining hate speech because he said Let's just get rid of all hate speech. Let's, let's get rid of all the bad speech and sad, ok, well one thing at a time of violent speech, but very talking about Nonviolence Beach, juvenile to find that if you claim that your platform, if you claim that you're, not a publisher, your platform, then how can you define what speeches hateful and which speech is not given the fact you have.

If so, then our growth rates, broke up and down on his level, political bias, Facebook, which is well worth while, and then and he is Zuckerberg S, question about how he's policing because this is really the danger and is what Democrats want was tat. The entire democratic crusade against these so called privacy. Violations of Facebook is real. An attempt by Democrats to grab control of the range of Facebook and drive Facebook to please them politically right. The implicit promise here is that a fact book starts, mirroring all the democratic talking point, then they will stop Regulating year later them or threatening to do so. That's what they're talking that's really what all this is about, and Zagreb already has leanings in that direction. Right he's a Democrat and he's We talked about how he wants to stop hate speech on this platform, but as obvious. He has no idea how to find hate speak because there is no way to define hate speech in any real way. You may decide or fear

but may decide it needs to police a whole bunch of speech that I think America might be better off, not having policed by one company. That has a really big and powerful platform. Can you define hate speech center? I think that this is a really hard question and I think it's one of the reasons why we struggle with it. There are certain definitions that that we then we have around in calling for for violence, or let us agree on that. If someone is down for violence, we that shouldn't be there okay. So again, there is a difference between saying you're, gonna, ban speech that calls for violence and taking a ban hate speech. Zuckerberg has no idea what you're talking about. He says that a I is gonna be able to do is when people to identify hates me just nonsense, we'll talk about her social media platforms acting as sensors and that's really the point. Ok we made a pretty shocking and mission in the middle of this middle of this colloquy with with the republican senators, whose s specifically are. Platform. Where are your publisher and he

Scully events where a publisher, you agree now. The facebook and other social media platforms are not neutral platforms, but bear some responsibility for the content. I agree that were responsible for the content. Okay, so soon ass. He says that his lawyers in Silicon Valley lose their minds because he this technology at Facebook, no ought to be like daily wire or the New York Times, meaning that any since photo shared on Facebook makes Facebook suitable means that Any piece of slander published on Facebook makes Facebook suitable. This is the choice mark Zuckerberg. Causing he's gonna have to make it are you a platform? Where are you in fact, publisher again Sullivan the Senator from Alaska? He said students whose out he asked Zuckerberg the same question you'll see Zuckerberg starts to back off because there is little breaking in the questioning. I'm sure you got a call from is losing marking to back off that when real quick. So here is

and Sullivan questioning Zuckerberg when you mentioned the sooner corn corn- and you said you are responsible for your content so which are you? Are you a tech company or you, the world's largest publisher, because I think that goes to a really question on what form of regulation or the government action if any we would take centre. This is a really big question. I view us as a tech company, because the primary thing that we do is build technology and brought us at irresponsibly content, which it made exactly nine of a publisher right. Well, I agree that were responsible for the content, but we don't produce them

and I think that when people ask us for media company or a publisher, my understanding of what the heart of what the really getting at is do we feel responsibility for the content on our platform. The answer that I think is clearly yes and but I don't think, that's incompatible with fundamental, yet at our core being a technology companies, same thing that we do is have engineers and bill products. Now his lawyers have got just be twisting themselves in Brussels over all of this, because he just open them. Of a he just open up facebook to millions of dollars and liability If you are here is the way it works now, if you're photographer and some the new top posts your photo at without without pay without licensing it. Normally, have to sue the Idiot neuter. You can sue Facebook, Marzano, just as we feel responsibility for the contents posted on Facebook, which means that you can now see Facebook and Facebook as much pocket under the digital millennium, copyright act there's an automatic statutory penalty, or use for all nations used of materials like that their ring

one. Seven hundred fifty dollars per instance, two thirty thousand dollars per into how many unlicensed photos are posted on Facebook, every minute I goodness of his words, are not in a state of panic right now than they really should be, because I promise you lawsuits our forthcoming and therefore coming in pretty short order It's just it's amazing, but this is where the Democrats have driven sucker. When you decide to go for after some sensor, you're on content and sense. The contents of other people, because you are please your ear, a cocktail party friends that hasn't significant ramifications for your business as well. Ok, so in other Silly news! Ok, I just have to bring you a couple of really dumb stories because they, they are pretty amazing. This one is from ass in the Boston Marathon has now declare They finally publicly acknowledged their new paths. Regarding gender according to daily wire James, bear over the daily wire. They say that men who identify as women can compete against biological women, regardless of whether or not they have taken any steps to officially transition, so, according to Boston

what it Association President Tom Grilled quote. We take people at their word. We register people, as they say, who find to be those rights. Strange do not have to provide any sort of proof that there are in fact, in any sort of transition systematically, as required by the impacts and many professional sports members of the Djibouti community have had to do a lot over the years. I would rather not add to that burdens. As girl, that's an amazing statement I ve had to do a lot over the years and we all want to adds the burden. It's not a burden to suggest that mentioned be competing against women in the women's bracket He's a belay applied the same logic to basketball. You know how you know first by everybody, be able to Duncan and W, and indeed in the women's and see delay, but, second of all, Let there be no way to prevent seven foot dude from saying that they were ladys and then just being in the interest competing. In Sweden or even if they work transgender, seven for deeds with twice upper body mass of women competing against women of innocent fared women. It's ridiculous, ridiculous and women should be insulted by this. Can forget about that, it's a liberal it such a leftist trope that if you have dealt with

over the years. The rules no longer apply to you read it members of the you'd be taken here, have had to do a lot over the earth agree we'd rather not adds that burden again, it's not a burden to say into play by the rules, this ridiculous, so BC, features one man who dense Pfizer woman, who admits to not having undergone any treatment to lower testosterone, which allows me to have significant economic advantage of women. Stevie Roma, as a transgender woman from Woodstock Illinois and says she registered squint, ABC News for both since one may, because that's what she is, although she hasn't done anything to lower her testosterone levels, roamer legally changed for general grew. Her hair out in certain living openly is woman more than a year ago to be able to experience, I've been a runner since, as long as I can remember, I love running, but I just happen to be transgender. Ok, so then how it that's? How will we get rid of both general categories where there will be any six categories both general categories right. There won't be any sex categories. Firstly, marathon at all, and women will never win. Logical women will never win a marathon ever in history. Men are faster, though women on average they, but a pair

way. I guess men will be winning the women's marathon anyways. We may as well just obliterate the categories I mean the the failure to sing. Within sex engender is clearly an incredible thing, and the fact that so many in the scientific community have pretended to buy into this, and I say pretend because they do no better. There's a doctor I've in the United States does not know the difference between a man and a woman biologically, and yet they act as though these distinctions mean nothing when it. The real world consequences as long as the man believes he has woman, or vice versa, we see quarter Doc from Boston based eligibility, health and advocacy centre when, since there is no physiological advantage to being assigned mail at birth, what in the world? There is no point, It was a physiological vantage being assigned result, you're not assigned mail, a birth. Ok, it's all you come out. Gender was, as you come out here, just a ball of human flesh without a penis or of a giant. And with no chrome is almost in the way we would know. Chromosomal description gets absurd into sorted out assigned your sex at birth. Can stupidity is this,

but the egg is now we have the subjectively just dismiss science outright. Is an amazing amazing thing, again This is true lives wrongs. Ass. The men outperform women by about ten percent across all athletic events, the gender gap and athletic performance is shown in record from olympic Competition has remained stuck since nineteen eighty three, the main difference, has been about ten percent between men and women. For all events, the mean gap is ten points seven percent for running eight point: nine percent for swimming and seventeen point five percent for jumping that. Doesn't take into account lifting words significantly greater when performance is improved, the improvements are proportional for each under David Epstein, author of the sports, Jean discuss the biological realities that letter differences between genders in peace for the Washington Post in twenty fourteen and in it. He provided some background and women's inclusion in several sports, which led to a momentary explosion, their performance that ultimately plateau in terms of top speed. Range running events. Women began levelling off by the nineteen Eightys and the records

aggravated Africa crackdown on mega doping, a female athletes from some Eastern Bloc nations from the one hundred metres to the ten thousand meters. The gap between Meat male and female performers generally stands around eleven percent at the pro level. That is a chasm women's one hundred record would have been too slow by a quarter second to qualify for entry into the men's field at the twenty Twond Olympics. So again, the fact that we are now shifting checked. Standards to meet subjective realities is just insane insane on every level. Ok time for some things, like and then some things I hate, and then I have a little bit of Bible for you, so things that I liked it so I've been doing musicals. You may not know, there's musical call promises promises based on the fantastic Billy, while their film the apartment from ninety six That was one of our very first recommendations on things like I hear here here at the bench Piero Shop but is based on that movie. The plot of them these basic there's a guy who falls mother the girl. He also has to use a he allows executives at his company to use his apartment as as Basically, a love nest for their affairs and

although he falls in love with has been having too. With one of these actors: the company- that's that's the essential set up for the plot, leave them The goal is quite good, other musicals, remember back or actual you'll. Remember back or act from such thing is from such things as the songs in Butch Cassidy Right, raindrops, you followed the bits barbette barbaric, but the music promises. Promises is a little bit less elevator, music or music. He then then, in some backtracks other stuff, that this script, that the book was written by Neil Simon and a very musical a loss to seventeen. Seventy six at the Tony's, which is fitting, but it's a good musical, Jerry or back who you're going to hear, hear and see her. I Jerry or Bach who, playing the main tired of playing the main male lead here. I remember him from one order he's one of the guys wedding wedding in water, and he has also fry he's. Also. The voice of the gloomy air in the original animated beauty in the beast has a here here singing the song she likes basketball from promises promises. She liked

That's how about that. We have something in common, ah basket, basketball, that I have some laziness: Merwin Mass Gag, unreasonable, wouldn't mind, maybe my labour, more I would make believe web and why my ribs by governments my life as they did. They did a revival of musical. I believe in twenty seventeen starring Sean Haze effort into this number. It's it's not bad, actually, just kind of surprising that I think it is

Raising. How many guys, who are big stars now, actually can sing like J K summit, You know the guy who just want to ask a couple years ago for Whiplash J K really not only can he saying he was actually in the revival of guys and dolls. You played one of the ten horn in one of the ten horn gamblers, I so is interesting. How many of these folks can actually say and here's years are not one go back, the animated Pocahontas MEL Gibson plays the role of of John Smith in the animated Pocahontas, who sings for male Gibson in that mail gifts magazine can actually saying really it's kind of amazing- how many these stars actually can hold a tomb, ok time for a couple things that I hate. So one of the things that I really dislike as general matter is hypocrisy, and one of the things that I find the whole areas is how many Democrats are now suggesting that president from does not have the authority to attack Syria. It's an amazing thing, because I sort of agree that its Congress is job to determine where

when war has been declared right. That's they that's how the powers are delegated under the constitution, but Democrat Don't have a lot of room. This latter grandstand on considering the Brok Obama declared about thirty three wars without any sort of, was the most boring VP candidate in the him Kane, who you recall, was the most boring he candidate in the history of and kind. He ran with Hillary Clinton and he said that, an interim- has no authority to attack the syrian government whatsoever. The senator Jeff like, and I have had a by partisan authorization focusing upon all of the military action were currently taking against non state actors. President currently does not have any legal authority to wage war It's nation states missile strikes against Syria, for example, without coming to Congress. All of that is true: where were you TIM came when Barack Obama was bombing Libya where where is the express authorization to bomb Libyan Como market avi? There wasn't any

Obviously a other things that I hate. What does things that's been so amazing is watching, as the left turns Barack Obama into this highfalutin figure, who doesn't the who really was, it was above the fray really above the phrase used before man who never really had the capacity to deign to them to the pod. Today's talked in public on their own level, just a man who, elevated to public discourse. Well, it's now coming according to the daily mail met in Obama, bomb aid has revealed he was a group president who fond overslept and was steam celebs and was seemed when a high school coach called his wife, fat, but Michel and also favoured tat you should and angry people who saw your wife as care. I don't care about how he felt about people insult his wife, I'm fine with that. You should be angry at people who saw your wife as a general rule, but it is true that Obama's were obsessed with celebrity reproof Springsteen, George, Colonial, Leonardo Capital or among a bunch of the stars, came to the White House to hang out with the coal present it now. You know one of the things that one for me is I've had a chance to meet a lot of celebrities in my job and

the celebrities who are actually interesting to me, are the ones who you don't actually know about, air, then ones where the writers and directors of films, but you ve, never heard of them after tend to be really uninteresting. As general rule, people here our musicians, who are stars. They didn't we really uninteresting as a general but about but was in fact obsessed with celebrities and Obama was a celebrity to Hollywood crowd. One of the reasons you gotta reality to be present and president from this, because he was not actually the first reality tv president, the first realities, president, wasn't that Barack Obama, who spent enormous sums of time talking to his Hollywood bodies and occupying us central place on our television screens, just where real. They start? Wood is why he was. He was interviews with pimp with a limb I end with the then global, rather that, though, the president before Donald Trump certainly was not averse to I, too, the little red light on the camera. Ok, the time for a quick, quick Bible Review so

I want to talk a little bit about the section from the book of Samuel. So this is first Samuel chapter fifteen nineteen it through. Thirty two, and this is the section in which Samuel deprives, the kingship, so small as one of the great tragic figures in all of world literature when you, when you add saw as the king hidden wannabe the king of the earth by his appointed the king and he's a pretty good king, but he is not so confident and is constantly going to the people for approval, and so there is this. Fascinating section where he has ordered by God to slay all the amalekite- and he doesn't three keep some of the lie that keep some their animals alive Samuel, whose profit approaches eminences? Why did you not obeyed Lord? Why did you pounds the plunder and you evil in the eyes of Lord and Saul says, but I did obey the Lord. I went on the mission Lord assigned me. I completely destroyed the Amal cuts and brought back the dog, their king, the soldiers to sheep and cattle from the plunder, the best of what was devoted to God in order to sacrifice them said Lord, your God at Gilgamesh, First volley conceived, gotta problem already. He single war, your God, raising the Lord, my God Gilda, it's the Lord, your God suits the already so

separating himself off from the from the God of Abraham Lincoln Jacob that he is supposed to be subject, Samuel replies, as Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices. Much is in Bangalore to a better than sacrifice into heat, is better than the fat of rams rebellion like the sin of divination and arrogance, is like evil idolatry, because you have rejected the word of the Lord has rejected. You is king. Sources, Samuel I've sin I violated the Lord's commanding your instructions. I was afraid of the men, and so I gave in to them now I beg forgive my son and come back with me, so I may worship the Lord and Samuel says TIM, I'm not gonna go back to you. You have rejected the word of Lord and Lawrence you as king over Israel, eventually saw ends up, bringing Algonkin of Samuel and and Samuel and playing a dog instead of song. So what's in, say about this- is that if you look at King David writings even maintains the kingship, Africa is threatened with its removal by Nathan, the profit, and what David did is alive. Worse than, what's all did in any objective sense of morality. Right, King David in It needed another man's wife and then sent back.

I the battlefield right now, that's pretty horrifying and Nathan approaches evidence as and says you just violated gods law, an end, even repentance Red- is why, when people compared from today that you have to take into account the fact that David repents David gets to keep his job, Why? Because his sin was out bear his sin was out of passion. It was not out of for this obedience to God on behalf of the people so this is, I think, a really fascinating thing to remember when it comes to our daily politics, your virtue, virtue is about adherence to some sort of higher principles, some sort of higher morality believe in God, I believe in God being that person is about being subject to higher principles and higher virtue? Not just the will of the people the what the way that's all govern and the reason they can be the king is because it solves spent a lot of his time with one eye on the people, one of the people on age and what are the people's Asher? Do the people want to keep the animals like us disobey garden I'll keep the animals. This is why This deprives the kingship and David is not David said for sure and David doesn't really awful things, but they had no

Why does he say you know what the will of the people trumps? What no to be right and virtuous or a God has instruct me to do at no point. Does say that and that's the real defining feature. That is something we should all remember, because it is enough to say. Yet most people sought most people are Kay with this or that most people want me to do acts, but that does not justify the doing of act. You have to make an explicit argument as to why it is right to do ex wires ie. You can't just rely on populism to justify your own. Your own malfeasance, ok, we'll after tomorrow, with whatever crazy news breaks, then, Compare this to the bench.
