• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Welcome.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: It is Verdictris Sentator Ted Cruz ben Ferguson with you.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Hope you had a great week with your family and
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: friends over Thanksgiving. And as we said before, we'll say
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: it again to all those men and women serving our country,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: all those first responders and doctors and people that we're badges,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: thank you for keeping us safe over the holidays. We
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: know your sacrifice and it has not gone unnoticed. Here, Senator,
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: We've got a lot to talk about, including a Jewish
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: USC professor who was barred from campus, targeted by anti
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Israel activists with a doctored video.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: We're gonna get to that in a moment.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Also going look at a whole other level leaked NSA
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: document revealing a massive glossary. We're going to deal with that,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: plus other problems at Disney they're now facing consequences. And
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: on top of that, you have a Customs and Border
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Patrol memo that ordered agents not to miss gender members
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: of the public. That's what the Biden administration's focused on
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: right now. Plus some not so great news for Joe
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Biden with the economy. All that coming up in just
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: a moment. Before we get to that, I want to
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: go back to that big shocking story of this USC
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: professor who is Jewish. He has now been barred from campus.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: He's been targeted by anti Israel activists with a doctored video.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: And this is a story that if you are a listener, verdict,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: we need your help to make sure that this goes viral.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Put this on social media, because it's time that we
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: stand with these professors that are being targeted and center.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: I'll let you take it and fill people in from there.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Well, over the last two months, since October seventh, we
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: have seen anti Semitism spiking across the country, particularly on
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: college campuses, and it's a manifestation of the warped and
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: twisted leftist ideology that unfortunately has has grown and festered
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: on college campuses now for decades. We have seen students
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: being harassed across the count We have seen tragically at MIT,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Jewish students being prevented from going to class and the
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: administration doing nothing about it, refusing to punish the anti
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Semitic protesters who are rassing the Jewish students. And the
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: reason MIT gave as well, those students are on student visas,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: they're foreigners, and so if we expelled them they would
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: have their student visa revoke. So it really is an
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: astonishing willingness to bend over to woke ideology. But I
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: got to say, USC really takes the cake with this,
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: because we had seen students unable to go to campus.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Now at USC, we're seeing a professor unable to go
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: to campus. Professor John Strauss is an economics professor, and
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: he was walking by a protest, a pro Palestinian protest
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: organized by the USC Student Coalition Against Labor Exploitation, USC
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Graduates for Palestine and the Trojans for Palestine, and Professor
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Strauss is he walked past, commented, he said, ignorant, really ignorant,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: and then one of the students engaged him, and the
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: professor added, quote, Hamas are murderers, that's all they are.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Everyone should be killed. I hope they all are. Now
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: what happened after that is people edited his quote and
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: they took out the reference to Hamas. They just took
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: the snippet everyone should be killed, I hope they all are.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: And that snippet went viral. It got millions of views
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: on Twitter and it was characterized as the professor saying
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: that all Palestinians should be killed, which is of course
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: not what he said. He said Hamas are murderers, that's
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: who he said should be killed. Well, the consequence of that, unsurprisingly,
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: he's been subjected to threats of violence because of the
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: deliberate mischaracterization of what he said. But the university responded
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: not by saying we're going to protect you, Professor Strauss,
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: but instead by sending a letter to him directing him
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: that he must conduct all of his classes for the
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: remainder of.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: The year.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Via zoom via distance learning, that he's not allowed to
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: physically be on campus. And the reason USC said was
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: quote to minimize disruption to the educational environment, to ensure
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: a safe environment for both you and students. It truly
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: is stunning that the administration at USC is so embraced
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: in the woke ideology, the ideology of colonialism, the ideology
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: that says Jews are the oppressors and Palestinians are the victims.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: This is the Marxist lens that I talk about at
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: great length in my new book Unwoke. USC is so
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: embraced by that ideology that they're now telling their professor
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: not allowed on campus because you said, what is indisputably true,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: is that Hamas are murderers and the Hamas terrorists should
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: be killed.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: And to be clear, this is punishing this professor not
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: being able to go on to campus. That is also
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: not just a slap on the wrist to him and
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: clearly attacking him and what he is as a human
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: being being Jewish. But this is also sending a message
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: I would think to any other student that is Jewish
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: or that supports Israel, you better be careful what you
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: say on campus, because this is what we'll do with
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: a professor. Imagine what we would do to a student.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Well, and I'm hearing reports literally on a daily basis
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: from friends of mine who have kids in college who
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: are Jewish, and they're reporting that they fear for their safety.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: They don't feel safe. And this is at Premier University's
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Ivy League university, supposedly elite universities that virtually all of
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: them have embraced this leftist ideology and under their worldview,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: they view Jews as evil Zionists. And so the universities,
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: too many of them, are unwilling to protect their students.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: It is disgraceful, it is wrong, and I'll tell you
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: It's a moment of clarity for a lot of people
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: to see what is happening.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Because of the Left.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: The world is in flames and Bidenomics is a complete
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: and total disaster.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: But it can't and won't ruin my day.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: You want to know why, because I start my day
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: with a hot America first cup of Blackout Coffee. Now, look,

• 8:10
  Speaker 2: moment ago when talking about what's happening on college campuses,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: and this professor is a perfect example of that.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: And I said it earlier. I'll say it again.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Make sure this story goes viral because people need to
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: understand that what's happened as professor is wrong. But if
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: you are a Jewish student at a lot of the
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: elite universities around the country, this is the treatment that
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: a lot of them are receiving, and they are not
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: being protected by these universities. How concerned are you? Because
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: this is not just a pattern or a trend. This
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: is almost an indoctrination by these public universities and private
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: universities at the highest level that we are not going
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: to allow you to be pro Israel on our campus.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Period.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Senator, I want to move on to the other topic
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: that we mentioned earlier, and that is wokeness has really
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: infiltrated our politics, especially when it comes to the Biden administration.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: The national security has now gone woke. Disney is now
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: facing some consequences. Plus you've got this customs at Border
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Patrol memo that orders agents not to miss gender members
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: of the public.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Let's start with that.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Well, this really is a triumvirate of wokeness, and it's
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: striking to see CBP and NSA and Disney all getting
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: hit with the consequences of their ideology. And you mentioned
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: a moment ago that it's cyber Monday. I'll point out
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: my brand new book, Unwoke, which just came out a
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago, has spent two weeks on the
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: New York Times bestseller list. Let me encourage you on
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: cyber Monday, go online, Go to Amazon, go to Barnes
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: and Noble, buy it online, buy it online, buy a
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: couple of copies and give them as a gift. You
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: got Christmas time coming up, give it as a gift.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: Because every one of these topics we're discussing is discussed
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: at length in the book Unwoke, How to Defeat Cultural
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: Marxism in America. Let's start with. CBP had an internal
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: memo that was obtained by the Heritage Foundation that prohibits
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: agents from using he, him, she, or her pronouns when
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: initially interacting with members of the public. The memo goes
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: on to encourage agents to use quote a universal greeting
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: such as good morning or good evening in the initial greeting. Now,
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: Ben Pete's sake, our country is being invaded. Eight point
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: six million illegal immigrants have crossed into this country under
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Joe Biden. There are dead bodies every single day. There
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: are children being sexually assaulted, women being sexually assaulted. That
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: one hundred thousand Americans died of drug overdoses last year.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Fentanyl is flooding into the country. And here's what the
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Biden administration is telling CBP to be concerned about.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Quote.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: If an incorrect pronoun is used and corrected by the individual,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: acknowledge the oversight and use the correct pronoun. The memo
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: also lists quote key terms with deafisions next to each. Bisexual, gay,
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: gender expression, gender identity, gender non conforming, intersex, lesbian, non binary, queer, questioning,
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: sex assigned birth, sexual orientation, transgender, transgender woman, transgender man,
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: and transitioning are all listed. What in the hell are
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: these people doing? Ben, This is the border patrol is
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: supposed to be securing the border. Explained to me why
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: exactly they should be having a conversation with a human
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: traffick or a drug trafficker or an illegal alien. Excuse me, sir,
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: are you non binary? Like, what the hell does that
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: have to do with actually securing the border and doing
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: their job? And the answer is nothing, because they put
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: politics ahead of they don't want to secure the border.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: So here's my question.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Is this at the feed of Maorchis is this the
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: feed of literally the Oval office in the President's desk
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: or is this some initiative coming from the Vice President's
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: office and she's supposed to be that the borders are
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: person I mean, how high does this go up for
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: them to go this woke on this type of a memo?
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, Look this started off with an executive
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: order from the White House directing every agency to elevate diversity, equity,
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: and inclusion above everything else, to ignore the law, to
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: ignore their job. It doesn't formally say that, It just
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: says this is the guiding priority of our agency. And
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: with respect to CBP, the political leadership may Orcus, We've
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: talked about this at length. Mayorcus does not intend to
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: does not want to enforce the law. He is not
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: trying to secure the border. He is trying to increase
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: the number of illegal aliens coming into this country. He's
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: trying to speed up the process. So I guess he
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: wants them to say, you know, good morning and then
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: have a conversation about their gender identity while shipping them
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: to every city in America. It truly is. It's a stunning,
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: screwed up priority that that is right at the heart
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: of where this administration is.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: It also, though, I think, sends the message to Customs
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and Border Patrol agents, we're not on your side, and
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: if you don't do what we tell you to do
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: and you actually do your job the right way, there
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: may be consequences for you doing your job. And if
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: you don't push our agenda items the way we're telling
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: you to do it will come after you, because that's
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: what I would get out of this. This is a shout
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: across the bow of every man and woman that's putting
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: their life on the line at the southern border to
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: basically say, you don't do your job the way you
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: think you do it, you do it the way we
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: tell you to.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Well, this Biden administration is an administration that is fundamentally unserious.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: They're not serious about the goal of securing the border
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: because they don't want to secure the border. They want
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: it to be maximizing the number of illegal aliens. Unserious
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: about national security, and as a result, Biden inherited peace
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: and prosperity, and we've now got two wars waging across
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: the world right now as a result of their weakness.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: And when you have federal agencies with serious, grave responsibilities
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: and you put political apparatics in charge who are not serious,
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: who are not up to the task, you end up
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: with number one not doing the job. They're therefore but
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: number two getting distracted by political priorities that have nothing
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: to do with the core mission. Another example you mentioned
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: the NSA, the National Security Administration. They prepared a thirty
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: four page colossary that they issued that that directs employees
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: to focus on diversity, equity and inclusion. And it includes
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: terms ranging from anti racists to z and zurr and
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: and it prove divides. It was published May sixth, twenty
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: twenty two, and it identifies itself as quote, a glossary
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: of terms and language commonly used in dialogue reversing regarding diversity,
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: equity and inclusion and social justice. And it cites critical
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: race theory advocates such as Robin DiAngelo and Ibram x kend.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: It cites DiAngelo, and it defines white fragility. All right,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: this is the NSA mind you defining white fragility as quote,
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: the state in which even a minimum amount of racial
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves in
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: white people. It adds these behaviors function to reinstate white
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: racial equilibrium. There's also a definition of whiteness. Now you
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: might think whiteness means someone being white. No, no, no, no,
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: that would be too simplistic. According to the NSA, whiteness
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: is quote a broad social construction that embraces the white culture, history, ideology,
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: race expressions, experiences, epistemology, emotions, and behavior, all in order
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: to reap quote material, political, economic, and structural benefits for
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: those socially deemed white. This stuff is nonsense. It is garbage,
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: It is poison. And you know what it isn't national security,
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: which is what the NSA is supposed to be focusing on.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're not focusing on that. And that is
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: something that has obviously come up with many people that
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: are concerned about national security and our southern border. You
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: and I have talked about this countless times, but there
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: are more concerns now than we've had probably since nine
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: to eleven. And yet when you hear that this isn't
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: just like a one page memo, this is a full
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: blown document, page.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Thirty four page page, thirty four pages.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, do we have a thirty four page
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: memo on the on the on the number of people
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: that have come across the border to your knowledge center
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: that are on the terrorist watch list? Is there a
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: thirty four page memo on that?
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Not that I know of? And let me ask, you know,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: the jackasses that wrote this, the jackasses that are in
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: charge of enforcing these policies, how come nobody at the
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: NSA got signals intelligence on Hamas planning the biggest mass
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: murder of Jews since the Holocaust on October seventh, Maybe
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: because instead they were focused not only on critical race theory,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: but also queer theory. And it defines queer theory if
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: you think this is Ben and me just making things up.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: According to the NSA, queer theory is an approach quote
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: that critically deconstructs and challenges binaries such as male and
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: female or heterosexual and homosexual, and the DEI glossary then
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: goes on to list a whole bunch of words associated
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: with queer theory, like transmisogyny. What the hell is trans misogyny? Well,
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: hold on, hold a second, I've got I've got a
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: glossary here. So trans misogyny is the intersection of transphobia
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: and misogyny, ze and zero. Meanwhile, we're told they are
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: gender neutral pronouns that can be used instead of he,
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: she and his her, while two spirit is defined as quote,
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: a Native American term for an individual who identifies as
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: both male and female. Other terms defined in the glossary
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: include gender queer, afab amab, which means assigned female at birth,
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: assigned male at birth LATINX, which there is not a
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: single Latino or a Latino on the face of the
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: earth that uses that ridiculous term. Those are all woke,
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: rich white kids who want to show how woke they
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: are by insulting the Latino community. There's also quote same
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: gender loving, which is a term that serves quote as
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: a description for homosexuals who think that terms such as
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: gay and lesbian carry negative connotations. There's also demigender. All right,
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: let me stop you ben quiz what does demigender mean?
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: I'm a glossary.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I have no idea.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: That's the part that I'm sitting here as you're going
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: through is I'm laughing because I'm like, how many sane
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: people would know any of these?
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I want you to stop if you're listening to
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: the podcast and literally ask yourself, if you were in
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: taking a test, could you define the word demi gender?
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: I couldn't. I don't know dem moore, she's like a
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: really hot woman. Is that demi gender? No? No, no, no,
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: demi gender? And it has variations. It has demi boy
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: and demi girl, although who knows what's a boy and
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: who knows what's a girl? And what it says is
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: it's defined as quote having a partial connection to one
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: or more genders. Ah, the joys of making this up.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: But by the way, not only does this do ridiculous
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: critical race theory and queer theory by its own terms,
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: it also blasts the founding of the United States of America.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: And it has a definition of quote settler colonialism. We
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: were talking in the first story about usc going after
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: and punish their own Jewish professor because they view Jews
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: and they view Americans as settler colonialists. Well, here's the
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: NSA's definition. Quote settler colonialism typically includes oppressive governance and
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: enforcement of codes of superiority. And then it says examples
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: include white European occupation of land in what is now
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: the United States. So I want you to understand this
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: is the friggin National Security Administration. By the way, has
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: anyone there wondered what the word national refers to, like,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: what nation are they working for? Because apparently they think
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: the founding of land that is now the United States
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: is an example of oppressive governance and settler colonialism. And
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: by the way, the solution, according to the NSA, it
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: says white Europeans are guilty of colonialism, and it defines
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: decolonize as a process quote that requires a recognition of
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: systems of oppression in order to unlearn values, beliefs, and
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: conceptions that have caused physical, emotional, or mental harm to
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: people through colonialization. At the same time, it defines white
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: privilege as quote an unquestioned and unlearned set of advantages, entitlements, benefits,
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: and choices bestowed on people solely because they are white.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: This is garbage and it's not our national security. As
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: you noted, the CVP is not allowed to secure the
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: border because they're having to figure out the sexual orientation
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: of human traffickers and drug traffickers instead of stopping them
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: and arresting them. And now the NSA is not looking
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: for terrorists because they're busy worrying about settler colonialism and
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: queer theory. This is an administration that is fundamentally unseerious
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: and consumed with woke leftist politics.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you want to you know, it's bad
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: enough we see it in the private sector, but when
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: you see our government doing it and then not doing
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: their job, especially when it comes to national security issues,
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: it's truly terrifying because the consequences are death and destruction
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: when you get it wrong.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Look, that is exactly right. And I want to give credit.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: I want to give credit to the Daily Wire because
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: the Daily Wire broke this story. It's an article by
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: Spencer Linquest that published published this glossary. It would not
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: be public if it were not for the Daily Wire.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: And this You literally read it, and I would say
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: it reads like a Saturday Night Live satire. Yeah, but
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: Saturday Night Live would never make fun of this because
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: they're too afraid, they're too woke. By the way, one
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: of the other things it defines is quote eurocentric, which
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: states quote most use this term with a clear awareness
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: of the historic oppressiveness of Eurocentric tendencies in US and
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: European societies. The phrase critical race theory references quote the
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: intersectional intersectionality of race and racism, and its supposed aim
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: is to quote pose a challenge to dominant ideology. There
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: is nothing about this that is national security. And by
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: the way, if you want to know what the NSA
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: is supposed to do, from the NSA's own website, let
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: me read you their mission. The National Security Agency slash
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: Central Security Service leads the US government in cryptology that
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: encompasses both signals, intelligence insights, and cybersecurity products and services,
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: and enables a computer network operations to gain a decisive
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: advantage for the nation and our allies. That is its mission.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: In other words, it is spying electronically on our enemies,
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: on terrorists, on people seeking to murder Americans. And what
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: are they doing instead? They are being driven by the
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: Biden Whitehouse's obsession with leftist, woke politics.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: It's cyber Monday and your probably looking for great deals. Well,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: how would you like to save money and get a
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: great deal on your cell phone service all year long,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: not just on cyber Monday. How would you like to
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: do it with a company that actually takes your money
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: every month when you pay your bill and gives it
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: back to conservative organizations and causes that you help choose
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: the support. I'm talking about Patriot Mobile, And for ten
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: years now, this is what Patriot Mobile has been doing.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Why did Patriot Mobile start? They started because they found
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: out where Big Mobile was sending money. They were sending
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: it to Planned Parenthood. They were sending it to Democratic
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: candidates and hardcore leftist organizations. So, if you're tired of
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: giving your mind to woke companies, then you need to
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: make the switch to Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile right now.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: They give you dependable nationwide coverage on all three major networks,

  Speaker 2: standing for freedom of speech, religious freedom, the sanctity of life.

• 25:10
  Speaker 2: that makes switching easy. You can keep your same cell

  Speaker 2: American company, Patriot Mobile on this Cyber Monday, nine seven
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: to two Patriot or Patriot Mobile dot com slash vertict Center.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: You're we're talking obviously about what's happening with these two
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: different organizations within our government, but there's also something that
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: happened at Disney.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: Well, that's right, and this is the third of our
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: woke triumvirate in terms of facing the consequences for their ideology,
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: which is that Disney recently filed its its annual SEC report,
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: a report that every public company is required to file,
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: and here's what they were forced to publicly disclose.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: Quote.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: We face risks relating to misalignment with public and consumer
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: tastes and preferences for entertainment, travel, and consumer products. And
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: it goes on to note, quote the success of our
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: businesses depends on our ability to consistently create compelling content.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Quote.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: Generally, our revenues and profitability are adversely impacted when our
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: entertainment offerings and products, as well as our methods to
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: make our offerings and products available consumers, do not achieve
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: sufficient consumer acceptance. Further, consumers' perceptions of our positions on
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: matters of public interest, including our efforts to achieve certain
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: of our environmental and social goals, often differ widely and
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: present risks to our reputation and brands. Now, that is
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: one of the most stunning corporate disclosures I've ever read,
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: because what that means is number one, Disney has lost
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: billions of dollars the phrase go broke. Disney has sadly
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: embodied that phrase. I am sure Walt Disney is spinning
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: in his grave and horrors at what has happened to
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: his namesake. But the fact that they put this in
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: their sec disclosures means number one, the money they're losing
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: is so significant. Number two, their projections for future money
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: that they're going to lose are so significant that they're
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: lawyers said, damn it, you have to acknowledge this in
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: the disclosure or else you will be sued for misleading investors.
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: In other words, we must write these words so that
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: when investors sue us and say, your executives are putting
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: your woke politics ahead of profitability, ahead of producing entertainment
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: that consumers want, ahead of actually producing family friendly entertainment
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: that kids are interested in, and parents want their kids
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: to see that your politics matters more to you than
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: making the business successful. They want to be able to
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: point to this disclosure and say no, no, sorry, you invested,
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: and we told you upfront, we don't care about making
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: a buck. Our politics is all we care about. And
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: even if it if it flushes the corporate profits down,
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: debt down the commode.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: You know, we've had this debate at my house three boys,
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: and we've talked about Disney, and I said to my wife,
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: we had a a grand debate over it. I'm not
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: giving my money to Disney. I'm not going to Disney.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to take them to Disney because I
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: believe them when they tell me what their agenda is,
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: and now it's in their financial disclosures.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: This is their agenda.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: And I say this over and over again when having
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: this debate over things like Disney and Wokee companies. Believe
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: them when they put it in writing, Believe them they
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: when they publish it, Believe them when they produce it,
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Believe them when they promote it. This is Disney saying
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: all along, Yes, this is exactly what we're trying to
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: do with your kids' minds. Yes, we are trying to
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: use what used to be just innocent entertainment that you
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: could trust your kid in front of Disney Channel or
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Disney Movies. You no longer should have that trust with them,
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: and they put it in writing.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Well, that's right. But look, there's reason to draw optimism
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: from this third example, which is is that that for
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: many woke corporations, I think they they are feeling the
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: heat and they're trying to change direction. You look at CEO,
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: the CEO of Disney, Bob Iger. They brought him back
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: because Disney was in such a world of hurt. They
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: had screwed it up so badly that Bob Ayer came
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: back and he is seeking in his own words to
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: quote quiet things down after putting politics front and center. Now,
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: Iigre presumably signed off on this corporate disclosure, and that
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: may be a consequence of trying to pivot Disney back. Now.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: They're not doing a great job of it because the
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: problem is that they have built a culture where their
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: executives are invested in in this woke ideology. And this
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: is something I discussed at great length in the book
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: on Woke. I talk about Disney at great length. I
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: talk about bud Light, I talk about Target, but I
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: talk about how all three of them, Disney, bud Light,
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: and Target lost billions and billions of dollars and number one.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: It's had an impact on all three but number two,
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: and this is where you should be encouraged. It is,
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: I hope and believe, a powerful deterrent for other CEO
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: and other corporations that are sitting there saying I don't
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: want to be bud Light, I don't want to be Target,
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: I don't want to be Disney. And now Disney, according
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: to its own corporate disclosure, Disney is saying I don't
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: want to be Disney. That may be promising and optimistic
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: for the future.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope that people continue to vote with their dollars.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: We're talking about cyber Monday, and there's so many people
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: that right now are looking at where they're spending their money,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: probably more than we've had in quite some time, and
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: that's a good thing. People are looking for companies they
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: want to work with that are unwoke, that aren't going
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: to these radical extremes that we've witnessed and talked about.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: And the best thing we can do is when they
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: do this, shine a light on it. Let me tell
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: you about our friends over at Augusta Precious Metals. If
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: you're like me, at the end of the year, you

• 33:28
  Speaker 2: to There was a story this week in it and
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: it kind of made me laugh, and it sums up
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: I think, are the Bidenomics economy that we're in right now.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: There is a sixteen dollar fast food meal. Now that
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: may not shock some people because you think, all right,
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: at the higher end, maybe that's something that is palatable,
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: But it's a sixteen dollars McDonald's meal that may explain
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: voter anger more than any other poll at Joe Biden, Like,
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: if this isn't just a full circle of where we
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: are now that McDonald's has a sixty a meal that
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: costs sixteen dollars and ten cents to be precise, that
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: it's gone viral as a man posts the receipt on
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: social media and I and I laughed when I saw
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: this because it's like, yeah, welcome to Bidenomics.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: Well, it's interesting. The language you used was word for
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: word the headline from, of all places, the Washington Post.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: So the Washington Post headline was, quote the viral sixteen
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: dollars McDonald's meal that may explain voter anger at Biden.
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: So this is the Washington Post saying, you want to
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: know why voters are pissed at Joe Biden, Here's why.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: And it goes on to describe that on December twentieth,
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, a fellow by the name of Toefer
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: Olive went to McDonald's in the town of Post Falls, Idaho,
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: and he ordered a limited edition smoky double quarter pounder
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: BLT with fries and a sprite, and the cost of
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: the meal was sixteen dollars and ten cents. And he
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: posted that the receipt on TikTok, and the receipt ended
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: up getting millions of views, initially a couple of hundred thousand,
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: but then when it was reposted, it ended up getting
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: over two million views. And it it goes right to
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: the heart. I mean, look, I've been going to McDonald's
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: for as long as I can remember, and you used
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: to be able to get a burger and fries and
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: a coke for five six bucks. You know when prices
• 35:41
