They Want You Fat, Stupid, And Lazy

well folks the federal government and our media and our society at large have decided that it is very very important that we promote fatness and stupidity and laziness there is a fascinating piece out by Ryan Burge who's a stud he's a scholar on religion and marriage over at his sub stack or his blog graphsaboutreligion.com in which he examines the fact that the kind of key identifiers

of success in the world generally exist among the religious population in the United States and they are declining among everybody else and this is sort of a fascinating phenomenon to look at there are a bunch of charts that he puts up to show this so for example he puts up a chart showing that as education increases religious practice or religious belief also increases to a certain

extent which is sort of the reverse of what we've been told the reason that this is the case is because he's talking about not just people who identify as atheist or agnostic he's talking about people who identify as none of the above so when you look at people who are not religious in any way or people who just are disassociated from religion what you find is

the people with some high school education 32 percent of them are believe in none right in in these polls 28 of high school graduates are are a nun 26 of people went to trade school but by the time you get to a master's degree only 20 of people who have a master's are nuns right the nuns are people who suggest of course that they have no

belief in religion or they're just unassociated with religion entirely not just atheists and agnostics but people who say none so as Ryan Birds points out the trend is unmistakable those who are most likely to ascend Services weekly are those with a graduate degree those least likely to attend are those with a high school diploma or less and one of the other things that that correlates with

is income so what you will see is that the share of people who attend weekly by education and income level the more educated you are the more income you have the more likely you are to attend church on a regular basis which is precisely the reverse of what Society tells you what the media tell you what the media tell you is that it's the most educated

Among Us who would never go to church and it's the least educated Among Us who always go to church and that actually is not true when you identify that with marital status what you find is that married people go to religious Services weekly at a far higher rate than people of any other marital status so what that means is the people who are at your local

church are probably in your community be best educated the most likely to be married and the most likely to be parents as well because what you find is that the share of people who attend weekly religious Services based on marital and parental status by far people who are married and parents attend religious Services far more clearly so here's the thing take religion out of the mix

for a second the identifiers of success in American Life married kids high income education those are now correlating extremely highly with religious practice this is the point that Ryan Burge is making and he's right he says the results are hard to ignore and should sound some major alarms for any person of Faith concerned about the large state of American society increasingly religion has become The Enclave

for those who have lived a quote-unquote proper life college degree middle class income Married with Children if you check all those boxes the likelihood of you regularly attending charge is about double the rate of folks who don't so Ryan reads that as a critique of the church the church needs to be more welcoming and it needs to find ways to reach out to people who are

not married people who don't have middle-class income people who are not college educated but there's a way to read this in reverse and that is that the rules that the elite of our society marital Elite the parental Elite the income Elite the educational Elite have applied to themselves are very different than the rules they have promulgated to the rest of society and you see this very

clearly in the social science standard Charles Murray wrote a phenomenal book called coming apart probably a decade and a half ago in which he examined differences among white communities because he's been ripped up and down for talking about racial disparities so he decided to do a book talking about sociological differences within white communities and he segregated out two separate white communities one I believe called Newtown

loans called Fishtown Newtown was like the high income group The High income group had people generally who are married generally people who had kids generally people who are involved in social institutions and people who are low income were the opposite now if you look at the media or if you look at the way the government treats this it's precisely the opposite they pretend that the people

who are most likely to be successful in our society are single female Berkeley graduates with no children who hate God and hate the church those are the people who are most likely to be successful if you watch TV but those in real life are not the people who are actually successful in other words the message that Society is promulgating is precisely the opposite of reality and

that has real world consequences because it bleeds down to the people who are aspiring to be at the top of the hierarchy in American society it's a point that you can see throughout American history there is always sort of a group of people that everyone aspired to be and if you go back to the 1930s for example I've used this example before if you look at

pictures from the Great Depression of people who are waiting in line at food distribution centers right charity services there are people who are wearing suits if you look at today's billionaires they dress like Schwabs the aspirational has now become an aspiration to kind of be the the lowest common denominator as opposed to the aspiration is to be the highest well here's the thing whenever people see

people who are successful and everybody knows what success is we can all pretend we don't know what successes we know what success looks like successful marriage successful raising of children successful in your community successful in terms of income successful in terms of we all know what that looks like with Society have decided that because we don't like the results of that we're going to pretend that

the measuring stick doesn't exist but the measuring stick does exist and we all know about the measuring stick and so innately we look to the people who are successful by all those measures in our society and those people used to be loud and proud about what it was that they did in their personal lives what it was they believe but now they've decided that the measure

of true virtue is to do precisely the opposite the measure of true virtue is to say sure I live that way sure you know I don't send my kid to a public school I send my kid to a private school sure I'm married sure I got an education sure I followed all the rules that a traditional religious society would actually have me follow sure but but

you know what because I'm an elite I'm going to promulgate a new morality that includes you now the dirty secret about this is that what that really is is it's a form of ugly paternalism in which people at the top are saying that people at the bottom are incapable of rising and that's not true it's not true the same things that got people at the top

to the top are the things that can take anyone to the top but we have a society that sounds dedicated to the opposite proposition that there is some sort of Injustice in the measuring stick itself and thus we are no longer even going to shoot for the things that we all know to be good and true and here's the thing once you remove the measuring stick

what you end up with is chaos you don't end up with equality you end up with just turmoil and chaos and unsuccess because you are subsidizing lack of success by removing the measuring stick for success and all these these rules are clear go to church get married have kids get a job finish your education right these rules are all very clear we've known about there's nothing

new here we've known about these rules for at least a couple of hundred years there's nothing new in terms of a mobile American society from unsuccess to success but we have decided at the elite levels of American government and American Media to obliterate all of those rules and pretend that we have done somebody some good and it's precisely the opposite we'll get some more on this

cardi B okay cardi B I've ripped on her before because I think that she's a perfect example of virtually everything wrong with our society she is a rapper who used to be a stripper who bragged on tape about drugging and robbing men and she also happens to be a person who is deemed by our society as the height of sex appeal that sexual satisfaction is supposed

to be attained by acting like cardi b or by imitating cardi B but the reality is that if cardi B lives cardi B's values she ends up very unhappy so cardi B is married to a person named offset these were both of their given names they both came out of their mothers and cardi B's mom said I shall call her cardi B and offset's mother said

I shall call him offset I don't know why why not onset but offset shall be his name and um and then these two lovebirds married one another and they've had a rather fraught relationship and this is the model by the way for literally millions of people in the United States right the thing that we used to model in the United States was you know a solid

marriage that lasted for an entire lifetime in which you were dedicated to the upraising of your children but cardi B's marriage is now splashed across page six so the latest claim within the beautiful marriage that cardi B has presented you know again she's the height of sex appeal she can't keep her husband dining in but she's the height of sex appeal she um she took to

Twitter spaces Monday to address her husband offset's claim that she f'd another man so apparently he put up a um an Instagram post which is really just a delight by the way they have two kids which this is all going to play amazing for the kids she put up in it he put up an Instagram post that says my wife effed uh n-word on me gang

y'all n words know how I come and then he uh apparently took that down but she responded to that she said first of all let me say you can't accuse me of all the things you know you are guilty of sing it with me y'all and I see that it is easy for you to blame everything on me yes honey listen she went on speaking directly

to her listeners don't pay attention to that country man y'all so here is cardi B talking in um the most eloquent terms about the state of her marriage don't pay attention to that country man y'all don't pay attention to the country man that spaces the other day got my spiraling and thinking come on now I'm cardi B I think sometimes my spaghetti I'm cardi B I

was given this fancy to anybody it will be out I'm not just anybody no regular Douglas Smuggler because they gonna tell the world I don't even know how to translate that in any case this is the this is what is presented by the upper echelons of our culture as high culture okay we have to stop pretending that this is quote unquote low culture in the United

States because it's not hey this sort of stuff is promoted by every major media Outlet in the United States it is promoted by every single major streaming service in the United States it is promoted as the height of American culture you are literally not supposed to say things like this stuff is ugly and bad and her music sucks you're not allowed to say that sort of

stuff without people going crazy on you that the message is promulgated by people like cardi b or for them matter Nicki Minaj that this music is garbage and that it actually is promoting harmful messages instead we are supposed to pretend that it's a form of female empowerment and that people who follow with stick tots are likely to lead happier lives well here's the problem cardi B

is not leading a particularly happy marital life the people who are leading happy married lives are boring fuddy-duddies the people who are being promoted by our society as the models of marriage are people like cardi B obviously these are the things that actually matter it's a society that promotes stupidity it's a society that promotes failed marriages we're not getting married at all I mean I'll give

it to cardi B at least she actually got married okay 70 of kids who are born in the black community today are born out of wedlock forty percent of kids in the white Community by the way are born out of wedlock today now as we'll discuss in a moment none of that happens in a vacuum you actually have to have a supporting governmental structure to promote

all of that but that's not the only thing that we're promoting so promoting stupidity in relationships and we are also promoting fatness right because we've decided that we're going to obliterate all the measuring stick so here's the thing again we all know innately what success looks like success when it comes to marriage looks like you marry a person you love that person you stay with them

until you die you bring up kids with that person your relationship deepens over time we all know what success looks like it's not a big mystery and yes there is an ideal and insulting to people who don't meet the ideal to point out that the ideal exists okay but the same thing exists in the Physical Realm we have decided that it's very very mean and very

very bad to point out that people should for example be in shape there's an entire article by a person named Daniel Pinnock about lizzo so again we're focusing a lot on culture today but here's the reality okay I mean I've looked at the at the at the actual numbers in the United States the number of people who form their values based on sheer politics in the

United States is very low most people do not get their values inculcated to them by watching Fox News or by watching shows like this one it's just not the way that it works that's not what the numbers show most people get their values from either the local institutions in which they participate which would normally be a church or if they don't get it from the church

they're getting it from their surrounding milieu which is usually social media and yes culture like cardi B has many many many more fans and followers than I will ever have because she is in the cultural realm and the same thing is true of lizzo and so when you have an entire media infrastructure dedicated to the proposition that being extremely overweight is actually a sign of health

and beauty what do you think you're gonna get you're incentivizing people to participate in that sort of behavior it's more of that momentarily first if you run a small business important to plan ahead one of the best ways to do that use stamps.com to mail and ship we've been using stamps.com at dailywater since 2017 because we don't like to waste our time or our money stamps.com

shamers don't get about lizzo and um she says this I understand why lizzo took a Beat from Twitter last month the Emmy and grammy-winning multi-hyphenate artist a classically trained flute playing rapper singer-songwriter actress in fashion Mogul was under attack again from internet trolls bombarding her with vicious messages about her weight this time it got so bad she locked down her Twitter account writing you all don't

know how close I'd be to giving up on everyone and quitting I I don't think that that was phrased in in sort of the Shakespeare's the sort of Old English y'all don't know how close I'd be and I don't think that's what she's gonna anyway there's no Embraces inclusivity for everyone who has a body everyone who has a body as opposed to what the bodyless I

mean who are the people who don't have a body why isn't she including them she chanced the Mantra body positivity for All Humans not just the fat ones her songs including good as hell and Truth Hurts have resonated with millions of people as anthems of empowerment and self-acceptance ah self-acceptance and empowerment now here's here's the reality if you want a path to unsuccess you should follow

the pathway of empowerment and self-acceptance great way to fail in life empowerance empowerment and self-acceptance means that you say that you are fine just as you are no one no one Saints should not be fine just as they are the best people are people who are always striving to better themselves and to better the people around them you should not feel empowered just being you you

shouldn't wake up in the morning feeling I am my best mate you are not your best you there is a better you out there and it's just a short distance away if you strive to change yourself and it's again when it comes to the treadmill of Life the treadmill is moving underneath you if you're standing still you're moving backwards either you're moving forwards or you're falling

off the treadmill but empowerment and self-acceptance quote she lives freely and unapologetically ah this sort of language makes me just want to vomit freely and unapologetically as opposed to living in Chains apologetically whether twerking on the beach with her besties or modeling stylish crop tops from her shapewear brand yitty but for years lizzo has faced backlash from people made uncomfortable by her unabashed acceptance of herself

who'd rather see her concealed in oversized Cardigans and potato sacks I love that the Alternatives here are potato sacks or thongs I feel like there's a whole wide range a magical range of clothing that fits between potato potato sacks and thongs what about her weight people say she's promoting obesity no she isn't there's a difference between endorsing obesity and practicing self-love um well not when she

herself love involves promoting obesity you know that there's a fairly High crossover right there when most people think of obesity says this columnist perhaps they think of skyrocketing bmi's or overweight people with chronic diseases or TV shows such as my 600 pound life or The Biggest Loser lizzo is not promoting any of that she is just trying to exist while lifting others up that's such a

Lie by the way she says the new standard of beauty is lizzo and so does the media the media say lizzo is a beautiful beautiful woman she's beautiful and whatever her weight is she's got to be at least 150 pounds overweight but it doesn't matter because again this is the new standard now I have a question is it a recipe for your success to imitate lizzo's

actions I love that this this lady tries to turn lizzo into a sort of Fitness Guru she got me back in the gym says this column is seeing someone who looks like me not ashamed or hating her body while exercising changed my entire perspective on Fitness did it though as opposed to saying to yourself maybe we actually should not look like dead and the way did

not look like that is not just to go to the gym it's to actually change our diets caloric deficit is a real thing but again our culture says does he even say such things he's judgmental and very very bad and then you wonder why there's a backlash that comes in the form of some of the stupidest presidential campaigning in human history and people resonating to it

so RFK Jr is running for the presidency he's going to run about 20 in the primary polls versus Joe Biden and the reason for that is because Joe Biden is a daughtering elderly gentleman who looks like he is going to literally Keel over and die in front of us RFK Jr is uh a person who has expressed a number of wild theories and then also does

a campaign where he takes off his shirt at the age of 70 pretty clearly on testosterone replacement therapy for whatever it's worth and uh and looks pretty ripped and then does some push-ups and people were like fawning over this yesterday and so we can laugh at it and it is funny I mean president can you imagine Abraham Lincoln doing this as part of a presidential campaign

be weird be real weird Calvin Coolidge just strip buffing down very strange but is there a reason that this is receiving some sort of a support the answer is yes because if the alternatives are 70 year old RFK Jr and like a prison yard doing a workout or lizzo twerking while fat American society knows what better better shape looks like we can pretend we don't here

was RFK Jr yesterday okay let's go there it is seven-year-old dude doing push-ups and honestly for a seven year old dude this is this is pretty impressive now it is his final set so uh he he said he had to tweet out that this was actually his last X he only got like eight push-ups there but it it doesn't matter the this this went viral and

the reason this went viral is number one he's a seven-year-old dude in really good shape and also because it is a backlash to a society that says that it is actively good to ignore your weight that is actively good to ignore standards now none of this could be promoted in any sort of scenario where the government didn't support it because it would turn out that unsuccess

would lead to for example lack of income lack of success in these various bad decision making would have consequences but we've constructed an entire utopian World in which bad activities stupid decisions actually end up being rewarded by the government because we're supposed to treat bad decisions with sympathy the same way that we would some sort of medical condition we'll get to that momentarily first we have

a dog our dog's name is happy and happy is a delight happy is a wonderful doggie and our kids love him very much which is why we weren't happy to live a long and healthy life and that is why we give him rough greens every morning the dog food you've been giving your dog is dead food it doesn't have that much nutritional value because you know

brown but rough greens is green it boosts happiest food back to life it can do the same for your dog as well you don't have to go out and buy new dog food just sprinkle some rough Greens on their food every single day it contains all the necessary vitamins and minerals your dog is not getting from their regular dog food happy loves his rough greens that

is that is why he is a joyous and happy dog rough greens the only supplement your dog will ask for by name rough greens you get it it's a joke naturopathic doctor Dennis black he's the founder of rough greens is so confident this product will improve your dog's health he's offering my listeners a free jumpstart trial bag go to freeruffgreens.com let rough greens bring your dog's

food back to life that's free r-u-f-fgreens.com Ben today or call 833 my dog 33 that's 833 my dog 33. okay all of this brings us to the collapse of the institutions that we're supposed to prevent this sort of thing and also to the building up of Institutions that support the destruction of of decent measures so I have to say that I'm a non-catholic but I'm a

member of Western Civilization which means that I have a pretty strong stake in the papacy the Pope happens to have dominion over a billion people what he says matters an awful lot and Pope Francis has been doing an absolutely horrendous job actually actually of guarding the values that he is supposed to be guarding as the pope as a religious person I would prefer to see judeo-christian

religion flourish because I think that judeo-christian religion has been the single greatest force undergirding a system of morality that allows for the values that create success well apparently according to Fortune Magazine Pope Francis praised artists on Friday as true Visionaries who can see dream and invent as you welcome 200 artists filmmakers and writers into the Sistine Chapel to Mark the 50th anniversary of the Vatican Museum's

contemporary art collection Francis acknowledged that some in the crowd there was Andres Serrano of piss Christ Fame sometimes use confrontation make people think but he said their aim was to find Harmony and Beauty you want to reveal reality also in its contradictions and in those things that is more comfortable and convenient to keep hidden Francis said like the biblical prophets you confront things that at times

are uncomfortable you criticize today's false myths and new Idols it's empty talks deploys of consumerism the schemes of power so that is presumably why you invite a person who literally put a crucifix in a jar of urine and called it art it's hard to think of anything more self-defeating than that and many of our chief religious institutions have been doing sort of the same thing they've

been mirroring the desires of the elite instead of mirroring the values that allow at least to become Elites in the first place and give access to that Elite status to literally everyone they're helping the at least destroy the ladder of success that got them where they are by following the the values of modernity that are a complete fail meanwhile as I say all that has to

that's failing then presumably Administration is going to hold you up if you are a person who is on food stamps and you don't want to work the bind Administration tries to hold you up right these these are all very important things for bidenomics to push according to Politico this is a pivot into a new campaign message censored on by namik's shorthand for the administration's economic strategy

of quote boosting the middle class through government Investments rather than simulative tax cuts focusing on the wealthy so here's the difference by the way between a government investment rather than a stimulative tax cut a tax cut is where you pay less taxes and then you are rewarded or punished accordingly for your good or bad decision making because what you do with your money is now your

fault right what I do with my if I make a bad investment I pay the price for that if the government takes my money and invested in something bad then presumably I still pay the price for it but you don't pay the price for it in some in some way and if you are at the bottom end of the scale and you're not paying taxes then

you really don't pay the price for it instead of just taking money out of somebody else's pocket this is bidenomics senior Biden advisors Anita Dunn and mcdonaldland wrote in a new memo quote implementing that economic vision and plan decisively turning the page on the era of trickle-down economics has been the defining project of the Biden presidency so they're talking about bidenomics that's the thing that really

matters so what exactly is by Dynamics biodynamics again is redistribution of income through various governmental means and subsidization of political allies that's the story of the American Federal Government really since the FDR days but more importantly since the war on poverty which is utterly restructured American society along the lines of promoting fat stupid and lazy that you you now get paid by the federal government to

make bad decisions here was Kareem Jean-Pierre promoting the phrase bidenomics this is apparently is their new again I'm not sure how they think that makes it more popular since Joe Biden is very unpopular president thanks green I want to ask you about this uh new bidenomics messaging push can you just give me a sense first of you know how did you guys point that phrase or

why did you decide to go with that branding going forward no I'm just asking I'm curious I think it's pretty clever it's pretty good um look um it makes good sense by Dynamics right it kind of flows off the tongue really well uh but in all seriousness look what you're going to hear from the president I don't want to get ahead of him I think we've

kind of laid out a little bit of what uh what we what we are thinking uh or what we think the president's going to lay out what he is going to lay out uh certainly it's a vision right it's a vision about growing the economy no the the actual Vision it is pretty clear it's not about growing the economy it's about restructuring American society and Joe

Biden's been very clear about this he says that Equity undergirds everything that he seeks to do including presumably Dynamics Equity is the lie that if we simply redistribute all income then Justice will be done Equity is the idea it's different than equality Equity is the idea that no matter what bad decisions you make if there is a disparity it is a result of American discrimination the

evils of our system so the system itself must be restructured and again we've been talking about this in terms of marital morality we've been talking about it in terms of weight and it's certainly true in terms of income and education level as well and then you wonder why the education system is failing it's because of precisely this mentality again what the difference between the elites of

today and the elites of yesterday in the United States is the elites of yesterday used to say here's a series of rules that we followed that everyone should follow these are good rules and we should promulgate them the elites of today say here are a series of rules that we followed you don't have to follow those rules because we are better than you are we are

innately more meritorious than you are and so we could have actually bucked those rules we could have ignored all of those rules and we still would have been successful which means you really don't have a shot even if you follow those rules you won't be successful so we're going to restructure all of American society around the assumption that the people at the bottom rungs of the

ladder they're going to stay at the bottom rungs of the ladder no matter what decisions it makes they may as well make really crappy decisions that make their lives worse what does that do what makes everybody's life worse and that is what we are watching happening in real time and meanwhile Joe Biden continues to be apparently as corrupt as the day is long a very bizarre

situation he was doing a um a White House presser with Modi from India and he somehow dropped a joke about selling State Secrets which is where we are now now we have not just presidents who uh who may have committed crimes presidents who openly joke about maybe committing crimes yeah honestly if if the best crop of candidates that our country has to offer is uh is

Joe Biden on the Democratic side Donald Trump on the Republican side and RFK Jr as the independent candidate I I don't even I don't even know what to what to say about that here is here is Joe Biden a mentally defunct human being with a long history of apparent corruption I was just thinking uh uh anyway I started off without you and I sold a lot

of State secrets and a lot of very important things that we shared oh my God and he said all the joking is all right I just told a lot of sad secrets and while you're out of the room can you imagine if Donald Trump joked about you know selling State Secrets while he was President of the United States like oh actually 100 Joe Biden is so

confident that the media will never ever actually investigate this sort of stuff that he just says this kind of stuff now we have Hunter Biden's attorney admitting that the WhatsApp text in which Hunter claims that Joe Biden is sitting next to him while they shake down a Chinese business person who is a front person for the Chinese government they like the the attorney in Hunter Biden's

case admits that text is real and yet apparently there are there are no consequences to this whatsoever which is why Joe Biden is joking about it fairly openly at this time now what's truly amazing is that the lawyer's statement according to Breitbart came on the same day the Breitbart News reported the Biden family received 5.1 million dollars within 10 days of Hunter Biden's message to a

ccp-linked businessman who worked with Chinese energy conglomerate cefc energy according to a 2020 Senate report on the Biden family the IRS whistleblower testimony revealed on Thursday the FBI investigators wanted to obtain the location data to confirm Joe Biden was in the room but there's no confidence the FBI actually obtained that data so again Joe Biden is like openly joking about the corruption Scandal that is now

engulfing him in the full confidence that he will be covered up for by the media and he's not wrong about that Anna Navarro the supposed Republican on the view is out there repeating the talking point to what this whole story is about is what an amazing parent Joe Biden is I can't tell you how much his life has been marked by losing not one child but

two children and once you've lost a child I think you are absolutely determined it's even more urgent it's even a bigger issue that you will not lose another one yeah the hunter Biden story the Scandal the this that it's also the story of a Father's Love and Joe Biden has never and will never give up on his son son Hunter and will never treat him lesser

than and so he is a father first take it or leave it that's who he is that is part of his heart that was 380 people at this at this dinner it's not like Hunter was sitting at Mary Garland's lap it was a bunch of of people and and I think part of the reason that Hunter Biden has been able to get out of addiction is

because Joe Biden embraced him entirely the entire time when he was vice president when he was candidate when he was out of office and now as president I mean of course Joe Biden things you can get away with it he's got the entire media parenting this garbage the real story here is not whether Hunter Biden was a cutout for his dad making money the real story

here is that Joe Biden is an amazing amazing parent meanwhile Kevin McCarthy speaker of the house he's threatening impeachment proceedings against Attorney General Garland if the Whistleblower allegations are true that Merrick Garland shut down all indictments of Hunter Biden on felony charges in various jurisdictions Miranda Devine says that Joe Biden met with his business partners 12 times 12 different times and 12 different deals perhaps so

it's according to Rob Walker who was in on all this stuff good friend he's all over uh all over the laptop so will this prompt you to do a impeachment inquiry well you apparently don't follow me on Twitter because yesterday I laid out very very clearly by July 6th because of the allegations from the IRS because of the whistleblowers and the doj are Garland what he

but they would have to run a candidate likely to defeat Joe Biden so there's a brand new poll out from a Dem poster called gqr it includes leaners you know people who lean one way or in another what it finds is Biden over Trump plus two in the swing States it shows that Trump and Biden are essentially tied 49-49 as far as Biden versus DeSantis it

shows to sandstep one 4948 so again very close election but in the swing States it chose to stance us up 53-42 and if we've learned anything it's that Most states in the union they don't really matter when it comes to the presidential election because they're going to break 60 40 or 55-45 there are a few states that really really matter right really only a few you're

talking Wisconsin Pennsylvania Michigan Arizona Georgia that's nearly a complete list it's a very very small list of states that is going to decide the election so the real question is not how the candidates would do nationally because by popular vote Donald Trump lost both the elections in which he was involved the real question is how they're going to do on the Statewide level because of course

Donald Trump won in 2016 and then lost those States in 2020. so the real question is that well here's the thing if you wish to defeat Joe Biden perhaps it would be good if your candidate was not embroiled in a bunch of ongoing legal dramas that involved him mainly doing dumb things okay so as I've said before two things can be true ones there's no way

that if Donald Trump were a Democrat who would currently be prosecuted for his classified documents treatment he just wouldn't Hillary Clinton did stuff that was very similar as we pointed out a thousand times and she was not in fact prosecuted also Donald Trump made this bed and Donald Trump did a bunch of things that were incredibly stupid and he did them on tape so just one

of the charges in this documents case that is now going to be tried over in Fort Pierce which by the way is is pretty good for Trump because Fort Pierce is a pretty conservative area so you assume the jury pool is going to be more kind to Trump but one of the allegations is that Donald Trump not only had classified material after he left the White

House which destroyed like a thousand different presidents and vice presidents and various officials but that he kept it after he was told by the Department of Justice and the National Archives to turn it back over and then he had his lawyers go out there and attest to the FBI and the National Archives and the doj that he had turned over all the documents meanwhile he was

hiding classified documents from his own lawyers so that he could essentially play with them for no reason right and again the left went nuts on this he had Jen saki suggesting that Trump's Theory here was that he wanted to give documents to dictators here's Jen's hockey over on MSNBC suggesting just that as you just alluded to I mean reading the itemized list of 31 documents and

the clearance levels as a former ranking member on the Intel committee there were five eyes uh classifications there there were some of the highest level classifications and knowing what you know about former president Donald Trump we know he has an affection for dictators do you have concern without us knowing at this point of what he may have wanted to do with those documents no I don't

know but what I do know is that he seriously jeopardized our national security and the implication that he wanted to hand over documents to dictators or something is really really really stupid but you know what else is really stupid keeping the documents there's no purpose to it and even Donald Trump kind of knows that which is why in his interview with prepare he actually did what

he very often does in these circumstances and he fibbed so he said to Brett Bear there's a tape of him and the transcript of that tape appeared in the in the indictment the tape was was of him speaking to a group of women some of whom were journalists apparently and it sounds like he's taking out classified documents and saying directly to them these are classified documents

I could have Declassified them when I was the president but I did not do so which is kind of game set match as far as the actual legality of his actions if you say I know these are classified documents then you also know you shouldn't be holding them and if you say I have no power to declassify them out which he actually says on the tape

then you know you shouldn't have them so for the thousandth time it could be true that the prosecution is political in the sense that if you're a Democrat wouldn't be happening to him also why would he put a Target squarely on his back this way in any case here was Trump telling Brett Bear that the documents he's talking about in that tape are actually just newspapers

when I said that I couldn't be classified now this because I wasn't president I I never made any bones about that when I'm not president I can't eat less if that's what you said you did you said that classified I said no no I said I couldn't have that document Brett there was no document that was a massive amount of papers and everything else talking about

Iran and other things and it may have been held up or may not but that was not a document I didn't have a document per se there was nothing to declassify these were newspaper stories okay these were newspaper stories right he says that on National Television knowing the government has the tape okay the tape is now broken so here's the actual tape of Donald Trump talking

about those documents we only had the actual text sort of transcript here's the actual tape somehow got to CNN of course of course it did how do such leaks occur who knows in any case CNN gets a hold of this uh of this tape and um it turns out that he's not waving around newspapers in all likelihood we have obtained what is expected to be a

central piece of the government's case against Donald Trump the actual audio recording recording of the former president talking as if he's showing a highly classified document on U.S war plans against Iran with people not clear to even know it exists let alone what's in it isn't that amazing this totally wins my case you know except it is like highly kind of eventually there's a secret information

look at this you attack and Hillary would print that out all the time Anthony Weiner the program by the way is that incredible yeah I was just saying because we're talking about it and you know he said he wanted to attack Iran and what he said okay this was done by the military given to me okay um he literally says that Hillary had papers like this

and that they were probably sent to Anthony Weiner via server which means he's not talking about newspapers again should should he be under the gun for this legally speaking not when Hillary isn't I mean again the Injustice is clear also this is I'm sorry this is stupid it's unbelievably stupid apparently he knew he was being taped in this in this tape recording I I assume that

in fact is the case I believe that Florida is a two-party consent state which means that with very few exceptions virtually all conversations that take place that are taped in in the State of Florida and he was at Mar-A-Lago at the time have to have the consent of both parties to the taping so he knew a tape recorder was on and he is so arrogant that

he thought that he could say into the tape recorder here are a bunch of classified documents that I have right here and I could have Declassified them but I didn't and then he went on national TV and said that he was waving around newspapers which he pretty obviously is not in that recording put aside everything else is this a smart thing to do is this a

thing that is likely to win you election because here's my deal with Trump if he's going to be the nominee I want to see him win and I want Joe Biden not to be president anymore that is one that is my top political priority comes 2024 is I do not want Joe Biden to be president of the United States come January 2025. he's a terrible president

who's doing terrible things routinely which means that if Trump is going to be the nominee I would like to see Trump win is this the sort of behavior that leads one to believe that Victory is is Insight that Victory is inevitability does it heighten your chances or lower your chances when you do this sort of stuff and you do it routinely you can still win I'm

not saying it's impossible for Trump to win I learned in 2016 you never say never because never sometimes happens with that said is this the kind of activity that is likely to lead to excellent performance in a national election particularly in swing states that he lost last time I have some doubts we'll get some more on this in just one second first there's a lot of

leftist propaganda out there endless pronouns critical race Theory sexually explicit books and more all easily accessible to minors virtually all the our public education system there are literal fights taking place in public schools right now so that school boards can make sure that your child is indoctrinated with pornography essentially colleges meanwhile are dumbing down their courses to accommodate the average incoming freshmen who can barely read

and write at a seventh grade level and this is why you should be looking at Freedom project Academy they have perfected online learning by offering live on-demand and homeschool courses for grades K-12 Freedom project Academy was built on Judea Christian values and classical curricula they're dedicated to Mastery of subject matter and teaching kids how to think not what to think right now you can save 10

on tuition when you enroll at freedom4school.com that's freedomforschool.com and a lot of people who are constantly asking about homeschool curricula and what exactly they should do with their kids given that the public schools are a giant mess well why not check out freedomforschool.com while you're there you can read about their teachers preview videos about the courses and requests a free information packet it's not worth handing

over another generation to the left take back at your child's education freedom4school.com that's Freedom f o r school.com again why hand over your kids to the predictions of a public school system that wishes to turn them into a good little leftist apparat check instead head on over to freedom4school.com okay time for a quick thing I like and then some things that I hate so things that

I like there is a very good series on MGM plus it is called the Spy among friends and it is about the British by Kim philby and the ferreting out of the so-called Cambridge 5 which is a series of communist spies in the British government who were essentially getting hundreds if not thousands of anti-soviet dissidents murdered in Eastern Europe and inside Russia from the 30s to

the to the 60s all right here's a little bit of the trailer ation agent in this country's ever known related it's a it's quite a good series it is totally worth the watch it was a Russian spy try to imagine first of all I love the cast so it's Damian Lewis who is great you remember him from Band of Brothers and Guy Pierce who's also terrific

it's a really really good cast ever and beautifully photographed beautifully shot Great Sound Engineering like it's it's really worthwhile and again it's one of the few it's kind of weird over the past 10 years Hollywood has suddenly recognized that Soviets were bad so it took them until 20 years after the end of the Cold War to recognize that the Soviets were actually bad now there was

a movie that came out fairly recently that was all about Soviet atrocities in Ukraine and it took them only like I don't know 90 years to say that it was okay to to make that movie the death of Stalin came out I believe 2017 2016. so now we're allowed to say that Soviets were bad after the Soviet Union fell like a generation after that we can

point that out the reason it took so long by the way is because all of Hollywood was deeply enthralled to the Soviet Union for a lot of the Cold War for like a lot of the Cold War the Nazis were real bad but the Soviets were kind of okay not only okay they were just misguided you see the same sort of mentality that now abounds about

China in some quarters um and uh this this series puts to bed once again the theory that the Soviets had anything of value to give to the world they were one of the most nefarious forces maybe the most nefarious force in the history of the world okay time for a quick thing that I hate so I'm not a big fan of media Outlets pretending that aspects

of poverty and suffering are actually kind of cool things to do so CNN International is Now featuring I kid you not a phenomenon that are called stir-fried stones and they are saying that this is China's latest street food street food fad that that's not a euphemism when they say stir-fried Stones they mean literally rocks that have spices on them like here's the video it says stir-fry

Pebbles stir fry features rocks as the main ingredient and social media calls it quote the world's hardest dish people are supposed to suck off the flavors then spit out the Rocks hence the Dish's name so Dio meaning suck and dispose the dish originated in Hubei Province and is said to date back hundreds of years it was reportedly passed down for Generations by boat men through their

oral history Street vendors cook the Pebbles with spices chili oil and garlic on a Sizzling Grill each portion costs about 16 Huang which is around two dollars and 30 cents excited guys would you like to suck a rock okay so um things aren't going amazing in China I think would be the takeaway here it's just you know it's just a different culture where you are sucking

rocks for nutritional value or or maybe or maybe things are not great in China maybe it turns out that communist countries suck by the way try marketing that in America seriously you know it's a thing that nobody will will eat in America rocks America's got a lot of problems people aren't sucking on the Rocks over here all right guys the rest of the show continues right
