Ten grand in precious metals for free terms, limitations do apply, ask ourselves represented for details this first, that comes lifespan. Ok, so the Big NEWS of the day is the Supreme Court has handed down a ruling serious, serious damage to public sector unions all across the nation and there It is because public sector unions are off ok that we need to explain a little bit about the background of public set. The union's and why they are bad and how this corrupt bargain works between public sector unions, and state governments, as well as the federal government. So here's the way they usually works. In order for you to be certified as a public sector union, as union generally let S negotiating on behalf of an entire block, an entire industry? You have to be certified by the National Labour relations bore. The national labour relations were decides,
that your entire industry now fits within a bargaining unit and that if a majority of that bargaining unit votes to join the union than that union now represents the entirety that bargaining unit. So let's say that you are wilder welder and your contracting with the federal government, so Vienna Larvae will determine that you part of a sector in that sector. Now be represented by the ep. Elsie IO, for example. If they choose who is half of the people in that unit? used to join the NFL Ceo votes be represented by the union. Then the union gets to represent that entire collective bargaining unit against the federal or state government, and that's the way this typically works in the state of Illinois. They passed a law that permits public employs unionized if a majority of the employees and a bargain unit vote to be represented by a union. That union is designated as the experts
the representatives of all the employees, even those who do not join now. The way this becomes very corrupt, obviously is number one. Public sector unions are a massive drain on fiscal resources because they are not bargaining with the boss of a company of all the members of daily, where decided to unionized, and then they decided to bargain with us the leadership at the company. We have an interest in bargaining, that we have an interest in save money. You have to adversarial sides, and then they come to an agreement, because the growth of the business as well as the the necessity of pain workers what they need. We all want to get to the same point, but we're coming from opposite sides. If you member of public sector unit in your bargaining with legislators. Legislators have no interest in saving money. Legislators are much more interested in making some sort of deal with the union such that the union gets paid a lot of money and then the union then dumps a bunch of money back into electing the legislators. Again, legislators don't characters it ain't their money where their third party, it's your money in my money that are being represented by legislators, so there's this corrupt bargain that goes on we're unions, get certified as a as a union and then they
Embargo, bargain with a bunch of legislators and then legislators, hand of a bunch of money and the union take some of that money and the poor back into the campaigns of those legislators to get them reelected. It's this very, very corrupt cycle. It's happening California. For decades, while Illinois has very similar, walk under the under the Illinois law, the real problem is not just: The union can be certified on behalf and his hair bargaining unit, which again I have no idea how that's even constitutional. In the first place, the national labour relations acts, in my view, is deeply unconstitutional. I do see how I, as an individual workers, should be co, opted into the bargaining of a collective unit right. This is not. Legislation is not me voting for politicians who are going to install a minimum wage. This is a group of people in my particular sector who may not represent a majority. The population v waiting for a? U a union that is supposedly going to represent me, even though I don't want them representing me. It is the it is, removing my personal abilities bargain on my own behalf for a better job or better pay or better raised
its removing that ability. For me, on the basis of a vote inside, of a collective bargaining unit decided by the federal or state government, and it seems to me, deeply cost You should in the first place, but even assuming that parts constitutional. The question before the Supreme Court that was decided today was can all of those people who did not actually want to join the union, be worse to pay the union. So, according to the law in Illinois, only the union may engage in collective bargaining. Individual employees may be represented by another agent or negotiate directly with their employers. My rights have been removed by the union itself is the only unit that cannot bargain with the government. If I'm really good employee of the federal state government. Then I can't bargain with my employer I'm going to have water rates, because there are to have a union contract and violates union contracts in them. To give me a race is one of them since my teachers, unions are so terrible because a great teachers can't bargain with the school for higher pay or for rays, and great schools can't fire bad It is because these union contracts non members- and this is the part that is the can controversial non members- are required to pay.
What is generally called an agency which is a percentage of full union dues under a boot versus Detroit, which was a decision. Back in eighteen, seventy seven this fee may cover union expenditure is attributable to those activities germane to the union's collective bargaining activities, but not may not cover the union's budget. An ideological projects. The problem, of course, is that union use this money in fungible fashion, and is it germane to politics to push Democrats kind of It remains in the functioning of the union to push particular legislators arguing can certainly be made the unions that's the agency annually and then sends non members unnoticed explaining the basis for the and the breakdown of expenditures. Here, in this particular case, it was seventy eight. And a full union do, ok, so to recapitulate their several issues. It has to do with unions. Only one was decided today, so one issue number one is: should unions be given the power to bargain collectively on the ban on behalf of non members, I think the answer should be
that it seems to me that unions can be just fine if everybody wants to join the union. In fact, the whole point of having a union is that people want to join it, but we have to kneecap people if these the gun, In order to force people to be represented by a union. I don't see how that doesn't violate the constitution. That was not what was it it as it at issue, though, Assuming that unions have the capacity to represent people who do not want to be members than theirs. Law on the books in Illinois. It's in California is in a bunch of other states in the union. This law suggested that, even if I did not want to join the union- but you It is now bargaining on my behalf. I know enforced by the government to pay that union, so the government now becomes the enforcer for the union. You see a corrupt. This is the government forces me to pay money to a union. So the union can pay members of the government to cut it. A better deal is all deeply deeply corrupt, There is a member of the union who are non member of the union, actually state employees whose unit was represented by a public sector union in Illinois,
and he refused to join the union because it doesn't like a lot of its positions, including those taken in collective bargaining, and he was paying something like five hundred bucks a year to this union, even though he didn't want to join the union in the first place, so the Supreme Court held too under the under the decision written by justice, Alito enjoined by Kennedy and Gore Such and Thomas, when Robert this decision held that this part of the law is no longer applicable that you cannot force non members of unions pay union do what seems like an obvious thing. I don't want to join the union. Why should I be forced to pay the dews? So the counter arguments that have been made by folks on the left is why What happens when all the members of the union decide not to pay the union? They decided to be represented by the union anymore because they want to pay the union dues and they are called in court. Free riders right now, they're getting benefits of Union of Union representation without having to pay the fate and the answer to that is so what so? What answered The union's do a better job of earning its members, loyalty and earning its members money. It shouldn't be the governor
stepping in and forcing people to pay the union when you dont want to pay the union in the first place. So just the leader delivers the opinion of the court. Any rights under Illinois LAW, public employees are forced to subsidize the union, even if they choose not to join and strongly object to the positions. The unions, in collective bargaining and related activities. We conclude that this arrangement violates the free speech rights of non members by compelling them to subsidize private speech on matters of substantial public concern, and this, of course, is exact. Right and justice. Alito goes on to explain why all of the new foolishness that is being pushed by the by the left on the unease. Union issues is unconstitutional. Is the first amendment made applicable to the states by the Fourteenth amendment forbids abridgment of the freedom of speech. We ve heard time and again that freedom of speech quote includes both the right to speak freely and the writer friend from speaking at all the right to issue Association for expressive purposes is likewise prohibited is likewise protected, as Justice Jackson memorably put it if there is any fixed start and our constitutional constellation is that no official, high or petty can prescribe what shall be
orthodoxy in politics, nationalism, religious or other matters of opinion or for citizens to confess by word or act, their faith therein compelling individuals to mouth support for views they find objectionable, violates the cardinal constitutional command and in most context any such efforts would be universally condemned. Suppose, for example, the state of Illinois required all residents to sign a document expressing support for particular set of positions. Uncontroversial public issues say the platform of one of the major political parties no one. We trust would seriously argued that the first amended permits this, perhaps because such compulsion so plainly violates the constitution. Most of our speech cases have involved the restrictions on what can be said rather than was compelling speech, but measures measures compelling speech are at least as threatening, and it goes on to Does the fact that these unions are essentially compelling speech? He says that they? The descent in this particular case, proposes that we apply what amounts to a rational basis. That is that we ask only whether a government employer could reasonable reasonably believe that these action of agency fees serves as interest. This form of minimal scrutiny is forest
free speech jurisprudence and we rejected here a so then they go through the abode Session, which nineteen seventy seven decision saying the state can compel people to pay money to unions and just a little Troy's it. He says there are basically two rationales that were used by the court in the mood to suggest that union's could actually be forced to that that Non union members can be forced to pay agency fees. Hey argument number one was labour peace right. So what that was labour bees, cats, stupid argument in the first place peace is apparently the idea that if you are not forced to pay an agency to the union, then you may instead go join another union and then the other union will be certified in different union will be certified and the answer that is so the how what why should we locked into a union forever? That's idiotic, Alito debunks that fully explained what Alito has to say in just a second first, I want to say thanks to our sponsors over at black rifle copies, I'm very excited to have black rifle coffee on board. If you ever found yourself just wincing at the wheat tasted
coffee from one of those left, leaning corporate brands. You know the kind that says that you can use their bathroom for free, no matter how homeless you are whether you decide they want actually buy blue water. Not well, then, perhaps you try black rifle coffee. Ok, the folks at black rival coffee their hard core, their politically incorrect, and they are just awesome, founded by former special operations that black rifle delivers. The best rose to order coffee directly to your door. It guarantees are getting fresh premium cloth with every or as a particularly awesome spacing in addition, great coffee and gear. Black rifle has a coffee club. It makes things easy means, no lines, no running out just great coffee, shop, Richards or every month hassle, for I have talked to the founders of black rifle coffee, and it is just spectacular mean they they these folks who do not care about political. Agnes, they say what they want. They say what they feel and not only that they make awesome. Coffee plus when you join their coffee cup club you'll, receive discounts and offers not available
their customers not only to lack rifle make one hell of a cup of coffee thousand other portion of their sales to veterans and first responders causes. She can feel good about buying coffee from then, when you choose Black rifle your choosing a company that supports vets and serves coffee and culture to those who have America check it out, black rifle coffee outcome, Slash Ben receive fifteen percent off your. You won't regret at the coffee sauce and the people are great and supporting a great cause. Black rifle coffee, dotcom, Slash Ben, that's black rifle coffee, dotcom, slash been for fifteen percent off again black rifle coffees outcome, Slash man! I love these guys check him out black rifle copied outcome, Slash man! Ok! So again, the argument that was being made a bunch of votes on the left is that we have to but these unions, because we must have a labour peace, may there's no such thing as labour peace, labour labour pieces called monopoly, if you suggest, and on the other side of the Isle, that employers should be able to get together and wages, because what we really need is wage peace ever
You would understand that amounts to collusion of monopoly when a union does it and the government props up that union. This is supposed to lead to labour peace, which is just ridiculous. The only capacity for unions to strike is when they have monopoly you, destroy the labour market. All you have to do is have monopoly of unions, because then those unions can walk off the job, particularly if they are contracted with public sector with public sector employers Are you ve seen this is actually seen police officers walk off the job in firefighters, walk off the job which make citys completely unworkable units. Annotation strikes that completely destroy said he's basically, and all of this does not create labour piece. It creates labour warfare, but the left thinks that labour peace amounts to labour should be forced into position a bargaining thanks to a union, so just ass, a leader destroys this. He says the federal employment experiences illustrative under federal law. A union chosen by a majority vote is designated as the exclusive representative of all the employees, but federal law does not permit agency fees.
Nevertheless, nearly a million federal employees about twenty seven percent of the federal workforce, our union members and situations, Postal services similar, although permitted to choose an exclusive representative postal service employees, are not required to pay an agency about four hundred thousand our union members. In other words, it is now undeniable that labour peace can be readily achieved through mean significantly less restrictive than the then segment of agencies, ok, so Labour Pisa, stupid argument. Then there is the better argument. Better argument is the risk of free riders rights. This is the idea that you're going to benefit from the union bargaining. Your bath, but you're not gonna pay. The union's the union doesn't make the money, but the argument on your behalf, supposedly out of the goodness of their of their hearts. So here is what Toledo says about that. He says: respondents in some of the annex, I endorse this reasoning containing the agency fees are needed to prevent non members from enjoying the benefits of union representation without shouldering the costs. Petitioner is the guy pursuing strenuously objects to this freedom, Labour, he argues, he's not a free ride or on a bus headed for a destination he wishes to reach, but is more like a person
hi for unwanted voyage was, I didn't want to join this union. I want them bargaining on my behalf and I are forcing me to pay them so how there my a free rider, I'm not the per hour to pay them, because I don't want any part of the union. If I could get away from the union, I would do it. Hadn't Alito says- and this is the detailing points as suppose that a particular group lobbies or speaks out on behalf of what thanks are the needs of senior citizens? Are veterans? Are physicians take just a few examples. Could the government require that all seniors veterans or doctors pay for that service. Even if they object, it has never been thought that this is permissible, and this, of course, is exactly right again, just because a group says that it speaks on. Behalf of the broader group does not mean that it should be able to leverage the government into forcing those people to pay that group Now left is going nuts over this decision and in just a second I'm an explain why it is that the left is, thing is mine over this decision. The left believes that this is going to destroy public sector unions nevertheless, truly believe that this decision now that people are not forced to pay the union's is going to for the public sector unit wholesaler. Basically people will stop paying the union's you
will run out of money and then the union's will no longer have a monopoly on labour and it will destroy the union's as they stand. The answer that is, ok so rules the answer, because it is forbidden to kneecap people to force them to join the union. Point when the government gun at people and forcing them to pay union is no is no better. So if the union's camp provide services and benefit they make people want to join the union. That is their problem. The truth is that the american law in states in the federal level have instead in favour of public sector unions, a very long time and is corrupted. Our entire system of government unions take more than three point. Five billion dollars a year from public sector union members. Can they spend billions dollars a year on politics, people always talking about money and politics and left their assignment these big corporation do the evil corporations that are spending money too, lobby, politicians and giving money to politicians folks, like Trenck eager, are constantly making this
case after taking millions of dollars from outside funders too, to prop up their companies. Sure you know all of this is it corporate money is bad. We know corporate money is bad, but the truth is the corporal money paid in comparison to what public sector unions have been spending on politics for a very long time. The union spend a ton of money on politics. They spend a ton of money on politics because their bribing the public officials with whom they will have to bargain. So when people are screaming and crying about the union's not being able to force people to pay the money understand the reason their upset about this is because they believe that people do not want a voluntarily join unions, they ones of internally join unions. Then they go ahead. Involuntarily join unions now the way the left is playing. This is that the Supreme Court and last several days over
wars and several decisions. The travel ban decision and the religious freedom decision, but they are there now cutting against left wing interest groups or the really cutting against is non legal justification for political ends. I that's rule at the Supreme Court has done here. The left has its very perverse view of the Supreme Court that the Supreme Court exists to green light and a rubber stamp. The leftist agenda, this room court is there to benefit particular populations of people that the left wishes to benefit. So the left believes that an I will ban case. The question is not whether the president does have executive authority under current law to actually use national security as an excuse to shut down immigration from five predominantly muslim grace and they say no, no, that's religious discrimination that that's, because trumpets Muslims,
No. Ninety two percent of the world's Muslims can still entered the United States because they are coming from these particular countries. This is obviously because the Supreme Court White present Trump hates Muslims. It can't be that the status of law requires them to actually look at the law. It must be, they hate Muslims and then, when it comes to religious freedom, it can't be that the Supreme Court looked at the status of the first member and said you cannot compel people to act in artistic fashion. On behalf of our group that you like, you can't do that by force of government, they say no, no! That's, because the Supreme Court must hey gay people and then, when it comes to this particular case, must be. The Supreme Court hits poor people, the Supreme Court, hates unions this room court, his blue collar workers. It can't be that this Supreme Court looks at the first amendment says how in their hell, can you possibly justify forcing someone at point of gun to pay an organization they don't want to join? Instead, it must be they hate unions and it's this sort of short cut thinking It leads to a breakdown in civil politics and our get to the civility and politics, and just a second, because the Devil
That's our moving radically the left in its happening incredibly quickly, but it is this. And tell you that is leading that polarization every time the left season outcome from the right. Every time, I see an outcome that is based on law based on neutral principles of what it does caught in their favour. They immediately a tribute bad motivation to the party that is pushing that particular opinion. So if I say that the first amendment suggests that you cannot force me to join the union- or you cannot force me to be there to pay fees into union, their suggestion is, I'm only saying that, because I hate blue collar people, it's always legal directly to the character attack. It's never that they stand and say. Well, you know, maybe this person has little justification for their point of view. Maybe it is that they believe in complete values. Like freedom of speech above compelled payments to collective bargaining, they can actually credit the other side with any sort of logic or decency. Instead, they immediately go to the Supreme Court is filled with bunch big, it's just a score. Such must be a big it if only
Mary Garland there. Then it would have voted in favour of our favorite constituencies. If you believe about that, the purpose of the Supreme Court is to back your favorite constituencies. Instead of to enforce the law as it stands to adjudicate the law as it stands, then I would suggest that our perverting the cause of the Supreme Court. So it Alexander Hamilton wrote in the Federalist papers that the minutes that the judiciary begins to substitute will for judgment. It loses to raise on debt. There's no reason, for it just in the first place, so that this framework decision is quite good and makes a lot of sense. But that is not going to accept it, because the left is move radically. The left now, just a second I'm looks plain how radically left his moved. I mean it is pretty astonishing and we have some more great evidence of that over the last twenty four hours. First out to tell you about text yourself, if you're somebody who loves information, you listen to the show so clearly you love information. Clearly, information is your thing. Well then, you really to go and check out texture, because texture is the magazine up. So much great journalism is being being done in magazines. These days, the entire house
wasting scandals blown wide open by Ronan Pharaoh over the New Yorker the Atlantic. Despite my did my disagreement with a lot of what they put out, the Atlantic has some really interesting from journalism happening right now.

So when we talk about the radical, moved and left by the Democratic Party, it is obvious from yesterday's elections that this is the case. So yesterday and I named Joseph Crowley- was ousted. He was he who spoke spected to challenge anti pollution from speakership. So how old is the Democratic Party Nancy policies? Seventy eight years old, Joe Crowley, whose fifty eight years old There is just slightly under my dad. Joe Crowley was seen as the heir apparent to Nancy Pelosi, so he was the up and coming use the fresh face. The fifty eight euro- or he was ass, did yesterday in aid democratic primary to buy a woman into Alexandria. Cassio quartet was twenty eight, it first time candidate in an open member of the democratic Socialist of America's issued, a Bernie Sanders Socialist, and she is a form of bar tender she's bar tending until about five minutes ago, she's, a graduate of Boston College, Boston University, rather in two thousand and seven and she's wildly left wrist she's a leftist. I mean she is insane leftist, not only
should believe that Israel is genocidal. She also favours Medicare for all abolishing immigration customs enforcement. She suggests that there should be job where everyone provided by the government. She believes that should be a minimum wage of fifteen dollars. She says quote when it comes to power: we can't you tempted by power money alone, but we need to do, is be bold enough and courageous enough to choose leadership that takes no corporate money and advances healthcare, education and housing Also, this is another. One of our programmes is housing for all. So she is, full scale, redistributive socialist, and she's really really radical. The reason that she will in the district is because nobody came out about only five percent of your of registered voters eligible voters in this district actually voting. This primary is on a really we're day there grant all about twenty seven thousand votes in the primary total sure about seventeen thousand of those also Joe Crowley did not take his district particulars. Obviously one ten consecutive terms she didn't spend any time in that district. Nonetheless,
since the dawn of a new era for the Democratic Party. They fully embraced Bernie Sanders socialism and matching waters. Naughtiness here is this new hero. Democratic Party Alexandria cause Cortez here? She was today after winning the primary show when the general tube. As this is a heavily democratic districts claiming that ice right immigration, customs enforcement is running black sites on the border, black sites being like CIA site, set up in Jordan to torture, people sure things, that's what's happening on the american border, because she's crazy person. I think that I am right there at the heart of it. It had an extra judicial nature it in to the structure of the agency, and that is why there are able to get away with black. You know, with black sites out our border with the separation of children we are. We are committing human I could use it on this quarter and separating children from their families. Ok, so one of the reasons the joke Crowley lost, the selection also number one. It was a radical enough for the district. The number two one of the things that's been happening in his districts that is
moved shows it now majority minority district and sets a heavily hispanic district. I end here one of the last remaining Democrats living in a heavily minority district who was white guy. So there has been a real shame in racial demographics. In this particular districts, and that was reflected in this election as well. She is radical Alexandria, Cassio protects, you will be treated as an up and commercial, be treated, the new heroine of the last, of course, because she's a pretty and obviously, and also she is talented what you do
so I mean she's good base for the Democratic Party if you like socialism and social in their dealings with much more attractive candidate on every possible level, then Joe Crowley, except for the fact that she is a radical insane person. So here she is talking some more in a debate about ice and trying to go after Joe Crowley's folks trying to suggest that the joke rally is not extreme enough on ice organization. As fascist ass, you have called tat of some expansionist fed its fascist. Now, why don't you adopt the fans to eliminate it? This is a moral problem in your response has been to apply more paperwork to this situation, have ice collect more information and on immigrants, and that puts our communities in danger and it also conveys a profound misunderstanding of how we should be approaching this problem. She wasn't the only a radical who was elected last night, then jealous you, the former head of the agenda, lazy, pay. One Maryland democratic primary
for governor on Tuesday a promised to deliver an agenda that makes college free, legalised marijuana and raises the states minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour. The Bernie Sanders full on medic, Air for all legal I merely want to raising the states minimum wage. Aren't care about legalised marijuana all that much, but making college free and raising state minimum wage. All of this stuff is really radical stuff your seeing a significant move. They really heavy move toward the far left among Democrats. Now that that clip that I just play you of general cause your Cortez, showing righteous indignation against Joe Crowley because he doesn't want to abolish immigration, customs enforcement because it is a moral abolish. The people actually enforce the border yeah, that's it righteous indignation is now what animates the Democratic party it makes. The Democratic Party feel special it makes feel as though they are authentic is one of the problems in american politics generally. Now this is true right and left is that people are mistaken d
since he for insincerity that if you are a decent person and you don't want to go after people hammer and tongs and you are not demonstrating sufficient passion, that means that you are not authentic. Really authentic people are people who can't keep their emotions and check if your truly authentic you're the kind of person pounds the table right you're. The kind of person who looks across your poet. And yells of them that's true authenticity and that's how we know that you're a decent, authentic person and are not just a political phony. Is the more you yell and the more you scream and more emotionally are the more we believe, the urn, authentic human being. Well. I think that that is about a stupid, a policy, as you can hear when it comes to voting for candidates, unfortunately, is being adopted on both sides of the Isle. But the Democrats have fully embrace this stuff and they're moving radically the left politically as well. President from said yesterday, the Democrats have become the party of vaccine waters. Nancy there's. No question anti policy is now the moderate in the Democratic Party Nancy Policy now representing the moderate wing of the Democratic Party, because the up incomers, while Bernie Sanders acolytes only what good it one thing. What shit term resist its the Party of MAX
water people now know now this has become the party of Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi. That's all there is. No question is correct about this. Of course. That's right, of course, has now. Also wondering present from was not correct about is that after Joe Crowley losses race last night, President Trump tweeted this out its weeded out, wow, big trumpeter congressmen, Joe Crowley, who many expected was going to take Nancy policies, place just lost his primary election. In other words, he's out there's a big one. Nobody saw happening. Perhaps you should have been nicer and more respectful to his president, pretty solid guess the Joe Crowley did not lose because wasn't nice enough to President rob you also open socialist things from should be each step is not correct about that, but he is certainly right that Alexandria, Cassio, Cortez and D and E Maxine waters crowd. These are the future of the Democratic Party. That's obvious! Can democratic parties
radicalizing for a long time. You're no word from came from its the radicalization of the Democratic Party in the reactionary nature of the right. In response to all that known talk in in greater fashion about the the exacerbation of this radicalization among Democrats, pressure going to have to go over to get in the water, subscriber nine hundred and ninety nine amount.

That is accurate, so you can check that out when he goes inscribe over Youtube and inscribe overt Itunes as well, we are the largest fastest growing conservative podcasting, the nation, so the radicalism of the democratic already has been in the works for quite a while and more evidence of this, so Keith and whose currently the number two at the DMZ he nearly one the tops lot as head of them. The Democratic National committee he's a radical with swift
long standing connections to racist and anti Semite Louis Farrakhan. I he cannot yesterday compared the travel ban decision by the Supreme Court saying the president from has the authority, in fact to cut down on immigration from countries that are that are heavily ensconced in terror, includes five muslim countries. Countries that the travel ban includes our North Korea, Syria, IRAN, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Chad and Venezuela Rights, not even all muslim countries. He says that this is the equivalent of the dread. Scott decision can a dread. Scots visions of the black people were not humans. Cats are radical. Key thousand is when it makes this comment. The Supreme Court in eighteen fifteen showed that it was ok to own a black person. There was judged got decision. Tat decision gives the dustbin of history soda left versus Ferguson Soldier Court, martial employers, one will too I'm telling you discrimination and racism and hatred and really
His bigotry is never going to be winning in the end. Now. My favorite part of that is that he says religious bigotry and racism and hatred will never win in the end, except that he's a dry, loose Farrakhan Pancake Tapir had on key thousand yesterday, and I got really rough. Ok, wouldn't when you're too far left for one Jake Tapir can destroy you this easily, because your this far left, maybe you're he has a problem here is key thousand number to the who, by the way, has worn shirts and say I hate borders right intact more parties now embraced the the consensus or these large losses democratic party? I dont want to exaggerate large swathes of the Democratic Party and embrace the idea that every legal immigrants in the country ought to be rude room it out of custody in relation to the general population. They ve moved far far far left. Here's Jake Tapir going Africa Ellison for it
negotiations. It was dark, and this is the number to the DMZ. The Washington post factor did give you four Pinocchio about that. That's a drink very very were wrong. Jake there. They, I have no I've, not their zinc, outs, untrue, Jake! I'm sorry- and you know I am dismayed that that's why you called me a new show today. Ok, that's, let's be real about this. If any Republican were to have the sort of associations that Louis Ferrok Shahn has there'd be called out every single day, never Republican, would we made to disassociate from that Republican as well? The Democrats have moved radically the left so far so that incivility of the democratic Party. As I said yesterday, I think that there are a couple of people, the Democratic Party are trying to hold back the tide, trucks, humor Nancy Blowsy. They ve been saying that incivility mob action. This stuff is inappropriate for Democrats to pursue their that they're they're going to the dustbin of history. Those people are not love by their base. Their base is not into it. There
This is occupy Wall Street. Their base is Alexandria, Embryo Cortez, slamming the desk and suggesting that ices rolling black sites, that is their base right now You can see this pretty clearly windows, our sore, for example. She goes after trucks, humor Linda's, our sore, who has in the past, supported terrorists, windows arson says that stability is wrong in trucks. Humor is the problem with the king warned us about people and Chuck Schwimmer. He said it's not that it wasn't the coup cluck plan and the White Citizen councillors, where the obstacles towards justice it was the people calling for a quote civility and people that were telling us when to protest at what time and how to protest. Ok, so I'm ok according to lend us our sore would oppose civility. Kate, his protest, we're not uncivil. His protests were protests, there's a difference between a protest and civil disobedience and you going into a restaurant and shit putting it people until they leave then following them to another restaurant and then shouting at them until they leave. But the left the hard core left base really believes this stuff
They really do. Re Msnbc Chris Age, who is not unrepresentative of the base, he's, has actually important to harass public officials and real deep sense. Like hectoring yelling at public officials, I mean I covered all the tea party town halls, the two thousand nine. That was a festival of telling the public officials and, in the same way that's actually an important right to preserve. Ok, that's that's not true, ok, that they just isn't true. I, but I went to tee parties in two thousand. Ninety thousand ten. It was generally protest that were held their parts. If they went to places with public officials, they were, they were standing outside, like cats, the capital building and they were yelling, as public officials came downstairs, going into restaurants and yelling at people. The cancellation of those two things is astonishing, but it shows you, the Democratic Party has embraced its it. They really embrace there. It is why Sarah, how can we Sanders now require secret service protection there, a bunch of members of the trunk administration who now need secret service protection, specifically because of the insanity of left in all
This here's some tape from yesterday those making the rounds Alain Chow who's, the wife of Mitch Mcconnell. She is coming out of some sort of dinner party and private residence, and she starts being harassed by a bunch of protesters who decide that they're going to harass again. If this were a bunch of republican men harassing Nancy Pelosi, all we would hear about is toxic masculinity for three weeks, but it's a bunch of democratic men harassed harassing Alain Chow in asian woman, so we won't hear about any of that I admit I guess we beg us, because their democratic has assumed their gender anything. So here is the tape of that hey, that's great! You mobs or standing outside private residence is now to harass Mitch, Mcconnell and Alain Chow. All of this is going oh really! Well, I just can't see how this goes bad in any
a civility is a thing of the past. It's been a thing of the past for a while, so people are blaming the sun Trump people are suggesting that Trump has contributed to incivility, augment the trumpets contributed to incivility, but to pretend that Trump is the source of instability is to ignore the last twenty years. In politics, it just is not accurate at all. I remember Bush Hitler. I remember they left describing George W Bush as a man. Stir and genocidal maniac. I remember Barack Obama suggesting that Mitt Romney was a bad human being and that he ate Barack Obama said to a group of sea egos that, if that, if they didn't do what he wanted he's all this between them and the pitchforks in the torches. That's Somethin Barack Obama actually said he's. The guy said: bring a dumping. A knife to a gunfight, politically speaking, was Joe Biden, who suggested the Mitt Romney wanted to put your back and change about a bunch of black folks. All of this does not contribute to an era of civility but often it is now connected deeply with incivility the more authentic you are, the more uncivil you are. This can't go anywhere we are losing civility and we.
Losing the concept of reasoned politics in general are instead we're disposition the moon, about what we wish politics would bring to us and then magically. It will descend upon us I will reach the when you wish upon a star moment in american politics Sunday, The second I'm explain what I mean by that. Neither when you wish upon us moments in american politics is basically the Pinocchio moment where it when you wish upon a start, your dreams come true. All you have to do is shouted the moon and all of your dreams. Will descend upon. You can see this a little bit among Republicans, who believe that all their problems, immediately be solved if President Trump simply does what they want. This is why there are so many Republicans who are willing to go along with president trumps, idiotic tariffs, but is it well
more among Democrats among Democrats, the ideas of they shouted the moon and if they wish the President Trump we're not President's and if they yell and if they scream and if they make trouble if they can from public officials and if they bang the table hard enough, then everything they want will magically come to fruition. Okay, this is not correct. Analyses are not correct, is not good for our politics. Politics was always about rational reason. Debate, or should have been read is what the founders the founders, believe that it would be interest juxtaposed against interest checking interest and that the only way to hash any of that stuff out was to have these reasonable, rational conversations. Those reasonable rational conversations have gone completely by the wayside in favour of people screaming at the moon. The Aral Sea, just highly, this. Among Democrats, they got a really fantastic as the best tat they ve cut in years. Regarding Democrats, pushing via
extremism and here's what it sounded like a few years ago. I d is that we talked about work. Blogs are being ring drawing near the picture of Cathy Griffin holding up a storm of twelve years. Both deals on our main aim. I just don't know why they uprising spoke of the country's connecting waters, ports
do you have your dad's immigration practices effect was one horse may be Goin on their way as Michel walls, the suppression of snow markings on the research, that's Johnny, Depp, Madonna, blowing up and therefore picture snoop dog shooting Enact address president Trump. And then the ad concludes the left in twenty eighteen unhinged that this is a very good ad and its also true. Now I assume that the left cut a similar add about people on the right saying, similarly ridiculous things up I think that it wouldn't be quite as prominent members of the right saying such ridiculous things. The difference is that the Democrats have claimed for time there. The nice guys they're are not the. I has anyone they embraced the radical side and what we are seeing is a complete shift in the Democratic Party away from a liberal party and what a hard left party the wants to restrict its opponents. It believes that the Supreme Court should be a tool of its of its own politics.
Believes that you should be compelled to believe everything, they believe and believes that violence is necessarily out of bounds, there's gonna go some really bad places hey it's to a reactionary cycle, Laura Bloomer, who is a kind of a knotty human being. In my perspective, Laura Boomer she confronted Maxine waters. Now I will say that I think that turn about his fair play when it comes to Maxie Water, she's, calling on people we push on. I think that creating a certain sense, mutilation disruption. That is not the country we want, so you better figure this out that that's not unwarranted. Laura lumber confronts Maxine waters in public, and here is how Maxie mortars responds to somebody doing to our exactly what she has suggested be done to other Republicans and sit down. Now, I'm asking you right now: will you please at the back of the month, numbers elevator member, it's a members elevator man is a man.
Elevated movements and moderate grinning as as Lord Numerous pushed off the elevator, but they the There is the matter Morrison. When you come to my office and toxicity about it, that's exactly what matching waters is telling people not to do that in waters is telling people not to do that so one more aluminized that I I can't say the Laurel rumor is wrong to do that when she is just doing what matching waters has specifically asked her to do Ok, so so all of this is to say that what we are watching right now is a in politics. That simply is unhealthy and it's gonna get worse before it gets better. I don't they This is something we are on. The verge of carrying out a mass break out of civility is in the cars. I just think that we're too polarizes free- and we are too in love with the idea that anger is authenticity to let it go, and so, leads are being helped by the by the polluter, situation we now find ourselves in when judges are. A federal judge- is not worth the trouble administration to basically release all legal immigrants. As long as our politics continues to be this polarized, there can't be any rational discussion. We had at all, ok
time for some things I like and then some things that I hate and then we'll do little Bible talk to one say, and I do hope that a certain level of judeo christian values, can return to our public discourse. Help will start with the thing So this is really very Tracy omen that comedian. She did a little scared for baby, see in which she marked left us woke left us. This awoke leftist therapy session and it's it's actually quite funny. Aren't you guys get on with the whole world? By set? You guys is Moon specially choose not matching by homework. Do you mean having to watch that all people sick com, it's called friends, Lily and you're supposed to watch it and enjoy swell? I tried, but I find it d
problematic. Why well there's the homophobia? The transfer via the fact, is that when the slug shaming and could Chandler be any more annoying, you conquer through you twenties worrying about every aspect of everything you have to pick your battles and just remember that it doesn't really matter because by the time you hate your thirties. Most of you are going to be massively right wing anyway. Have any of you started to think that maybe poor people don't deserve benefits no or watch out for that one, because that's how it starts alibi understands is open a bit much for some of you. So let's take five have hope. A fund would help nor very fond of centric lemme, even some memorandum in trade women's rights, whether ok, even members of the left, are beginning to recognise how crazy left is this. The good news is going to say that if there is a new consensus built, it's gonna be built on the back of the insane.
So the insanity of of some folks on the on the right integrity, of a huge swathes of what there's gonna drive a lot of people to say you know what maybe we ought to have rational conversations instead of screaming and tweeting at each other. At least that's what I hope that's my that's. My hope is that we can have these rational conversations, because I think that we can, you know, come too. If we can come to consent to the least we can clarify our positions, the rest we'll conversation as opposed to getting up in each other's grill shouting at each other, suggesting that, because we disagree on the nature of governments, that means that we're in only bad human beings. I think that that can be. That can be hopefully stop. Ok time for a couple of things that I hate so I have to mention events talking about incivility and stupidity unless thousand dimension it when it happens on the right, so Chris Cuomo of CNN he hadn't Steve King represent, king from Iowa welcome? I know I think, as is personally
a perfectly nice human being. But when it comes to his politics, I will say that he does very stupid things politically on a fairly regular basis and Chris Cuomo has on seeking Steve King had tweeted out a Nazi sympathiser, retweet immigration and Chris Como confronted about in Europe do kings response. I dont believe that you recognise his values as your own, but you say, but I won't delete the toy right. I dont get it. I guess we're really simple is already simple. I tweeted a bright Bart story. I didn't treat a message from here. I treated by tweeted, a bright Bart story. Dumber deleting that because then you all pile on me and say king had to apologize, he was wrong. He nobody's guilty, I'm not! I don't feel guilty one bit human, I'm not here to say that you are a NEO nazi. Ok, that you know me better than that, I'm here to say that you're so caught up in this US verses them thing with the left and the right that you don't want to give ground on. Even something that you have knowledge is wrong and say: well, here's
first, what he should do is delete between and then you should retreat the bright. My story, that's when he wants to do but check the council people the earlier retweeting. Just don't don't don't be so stupid. The retreat, NEO Nazi accounts and then leave it up is yet to come on. Come on, ok, other things that I hate. So at a rally this week president Trump went went after Jimmy fell and ass even Colbert Benjamin as well, and these can be and decided that, in order to demonstrate that they were not bias against President Trump and were in fact comedians, they would do a skit in which they all combined to attack president trap, so that this is great It is, it is wonderful. One comedians basically acknowledge all of their own biases and in just by everything president from said about them. It is also demonstrated, I think, of the fact that all these comedians are so self centered that they feel the necessity to defend themselves against the President of the union,
states instead of just saying: listen, I'm a comedian which is the actual proper response to this. Instead they're going to cut a video about basically how much they dislike Trump mocking Trump right back, because this that look they're happy went from named tracks them. It's their favorite thing life, pale ass, the man I'll try. What are you up to our busy haven't? No talent did you should transfer only last night. New mealy racism prepared stuff knows really doesn't sound like him hurry several, no talent, low life lost souls. Well, that's all right: let's go
I'll, get you guys what's up, resulting from Donald Trump, the real estate guy, who so stakes he's? Hasn't it yeah how's. He doing NASA, then we'll guys given time. Ok and remember, please be civil for not careful, you think a start to get away. Hey about start shaving. My chest, you guys want to watch, relax, yeah. I want to read and write and there he sat there and they are at the very end. The punchline, of course, is that they want to go eat at a restaurant through Sarah commissioners yeah. That's that's not going to drive the right further into the arms of president from there's not going to justify president from just do. Everything is about you and bring the country together by ripping the guy. Who you say, is blue
ugly, biased and who says you are politically by just brilliant stuff from mean honestly best investing come up with an early anything. There is Conan, then volitional have come in late night. Let's be real about this Conan with current was much better, is much more talented than either of these other two bums, ok time for a quick, a quick Bible review, so I've decided that instead of haphazard, leaping from the Bible, as I have been doing I now, I want to go through the book of some sort of the pick a song every week and when you go through itself, the first song. Is, I think rather apt. Actually this week it says bless, it is the one who does not step walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of markers, but whose delight is in love. Lord and meditates, on his law day and night. That person is like a tree plans by streams of water which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not whether whatever they do prospects, not so the wicked there like chaff, when blows them away. Therefore, the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor centres in the assembly of the Righteous, the Lord watches over the ways of the righteous. But the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
I'm not sure that one needs all that much commentary, but the tribalism of our american politics has become sitting in the company of mockery standing in the way the sinners take walking in step with the wicked. If you are following people You know our wicked if you are engaging in wicked activity, just because it is owning the cons or owning the webs. You're not stand with the Lord you're, not standing with decency, or not standing with virtue, you're standing with a group of people put not your faith in other human beings she's variable standards of morality are going to change with the times and in line with their own particular proclivities. Instead, stand with truth stand with virtue and you won't go wrong. You won't go wrong. You haven't anal, that would mean you'll have a lot of company, but it does. That you will be the the tree that is planned streams of water rather than the chaff that has blown away over time because standing with with anything variable means that you are likely to be blown away when the strong winds come. Ok, we'll be back here tomorrow on the latest I mentioned earlier
