When Education Turns Ideological plus How Extreme Rhetoric is the Lefts Call for Violence · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

Speaker 1: There have been three different assassination attempts on President Donald
0:05
Speaker 1: Trump where bullets have been fired. We also know that
0:09
Speaker 1: there was another assassination attempt on the President of the
0:12
Speaker 1: United States of America by a man that decided to
0:15
Speaker 1: bring a shotgun as well as other weapons. That would
0:18
Speaker 1: be for a total of four different assassination attempts on
0:22
Speaker 1: President Trump that we know about. The question is why
0:26
Speaker 1: is this happening and could it be because the left
0:30
Speaker 1: has taken over the education system and is radicalizing people
0:34
Speaker 1: to hate Conservatives, to take Christians, and to hate Donald Trump. Well,
0:41
Speaker 1: a watchdog group has now released a pair of reports
0:44
Speaker 1: exposing how America's teachers' union, Yes, the teachers' unions that
0:51
Speaker 1: control our public education across the US, have funneled now
0:55
Speaker 1: more than one billion dollars into left wing political causes
1:02
Speaker 1: over the last decade. So let me start with a
1:06
Speaker 1: question that every American should be asking. What happens when
1:10
Speaker 1: the institutions that we're supposed to trust to educate our
1:14
Speaker 1: kids become some of the biggest political players in the
1:19
Speaker 1: country At the exact same time, our politics are becoming
1:24
Speaker 1: so extreme that the president United States of America is
1:28
Speaker 1: now on a regular schedule of assassination attempts, an essence
1:33
Speaker 1: while in office, because that's really where we are today.
1:37
Speaker 1: It may be the inconvenient truth, but it is the
1:41
Speaker 1: nation's largest teachers' unions, like the National Education Association and
1:47
Speaker 1: the American Federation of Teachers, they know what they're doing.
1:52
Speaker 1: They're pouring more than one billion into left winning political
1:56
Speaker 1: causes and activism dollars. I want you to really think
2:02
Speaker 1: about how much money that is. All right, I want
2:05
Speaker 1: to take a moment and I want to talk to
2:07
Speaker 1: you about the incredible impact that you can have for
2:09
Speaker 1: the people of Israel right now, Right now, our Jewish
2:13
Speaker 1: friends are feeling forgotten. There's a Jewish woman named Esther
2:17
Speaker 1: I'd like to tell you about, and her home is
2:20
Speaker 1: an Israel. Esther is living through days and nights of fear.
2:24
Speaker 1: Sirens are sounding, rockets screaming through the sky, long stretches
2:28
Speaker 1: spent in a bomb shelter. She's eighty four years old.
2:32
Speaker 1: Esther is elderly. She's fragile and all alone. Now imagine that,
2:36
Speaker 1: no help, no food deliveries, no medical care, no one
2:40
Speaker 1: knocking at the door. It's a war zone. But because
2:43
Speaker 1: of friends like you, Esther is not alone. Now through
2:47
Speaker 1: the IFCJ, they are there, bringing her food, meeting her
2:52
Speaker 1: urgent needs, and reminding Jewish people like Esther, you are
2:56
Speaker 1: not forgotten in times of fear and uncertainty. Your compassion
3:01
Speaker 1: brings hope and real help. Esther ask that you hear
3:04
Speaker 1: these words quote to those who give, you are doing
3:08
Speaker 1: a very great mitzvah, a good deed you give from
3:11
Speaker 1: your heart. May God protect you.
3:14
Speaker 2: Friends.
3:15
Speaker 1: I want you to know your gift to God's people
3:17
Speaker 1: is truly hope giving and life saving. So if you've
3:21
Speaker 1: not gotten involved with the IFCJ, please do it now
3:24
Speaker 1: and don't wait. Call eight and eight four eight eight
3:29
Speaker 1: IFCJ right now. That's eight and eight for eight eight IFCJ.
3:35
Speaker 1: Or go to if CJ dot org. That's IFCJ dot org. Now,
3:41
Speaker 1: this isn't small dollar advocacy. This isn't occasional political engagement
3:46
Speaker 1: by the teachers' unions, which teachers should be nonpartisan. They
3:51
Speaker 1: should be teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic, which by the way,
3:54
Speaker 1: statistically they're failing this country and we're at the lowest
3:58
Speaker 1: of nations that we compare ourselves too, and reading, writing,
4:01
Speaker 1: and arithmetic in some categories. When it comes to civilized nations,
4:05
Speaker 1: we are at the bottom of the barrel. And it
4:08
Speaker 1: may be because all of these teachers unions are hiring, supporting,
4:13
Speaker 1: and advocating to become in doctor nation schools instead of
4:18
Speaker 1: actually teaching children in education. And all you have to
4:22
Speaker 1: do is follow the money. When you look at the
4:25
Speaker 1: full scale political influence that these teachers unions are involved in,
4:30
Speaker 1: it should honestly be against the law. When you break
4:34
Speaker 1: down where that money's going, the picture becomes even more
4:37
Speaker 1: clear what they believe in. These unions are bankrolling political
4:42
Speaker 1: campaigns overwhelming for Democrat people running for office, Socialists, Marxists,
4:49
Speaker 1: and communists. And it's not just people running for office.
4:54
Speaker 1: They're also funding the most extreme activist groups of the
4:57
Speaker 1: progressive agenda, backing ballot initiatives on issues far outside and
5:04
Speaker 1: beyond education, and they're spending heavily on lobbying to influence
5:09
Speaker 1: legislation to protect their indoctrination of our children in this country.
5:14
Speaker 1: I go back to the core point. This isn't about
5:17
Speaker 1: mass scores, this isn't about reading levels. It's literally about
5:20
Speaker 1: political indoctrination. And these organizations have become some of the
5:24
Speaker 1: most powerful political machines in this country. They're using their
5:29
Speaker 1: resources that many teachers themselves are required to contribute through dues,
5:33
Speaker 1: and if you don't that is called collusion. By the way,
5:37
Speaker 1: then you're on the outs with a teachers union. Good
5:39
Speaker 1: luck getting a job or a promotion. These teachers, many
5:43
Speaker 1: of them, are forced to give to the teachers' unions. Now,
5:47
Speaker 1: this isn't about the classroom anymore at all. They're not
5:50
Speaker 1: even trying to hide it. Think about what's not being
5:53
Speaker 1: funded when a billion dollars goes into political activism. The
5:57
Speaker 1: money's not going to fixing our struggling schools. It's not
6:01
Speaker 1: going to reduce class sizes. It's not even going to
6:04
Speaker 1: increase teacher salaries directly or even help students catch up
6:08
Speaker 1: after they missed school and went way behind where they
6:11
Speaker 1: should be after COVID. No, no, no, no no. Instead, it's
6:15
Speaker 1: being directed into shaping the political landscape of this country.
6:19
Speaker 1: And that should raise a serious question. When did teachers
6:23
Speaker 1: and the union stop being about education and start being
6:27
Speaker 1: about ideology. Well, democrats clearly decide they were going to
6:31
Speaker 1: play the long game. They were going to control the
6:34
Speaker 1: minds of our children at the education levels. Of elementary school,
6:38
Speaker 1: and then middle school, and then junior high and then
6:41
Speaker 1: high school, and then they started dumping big money into
6:44
Speaker 1: in our universities. This is the game plan. And then
6:49
Speaker 1: you look at what they've accomplished in politics. Twenty five
6:53
Speaker 1: percent of Democrats now believe that political violence is justified
6:59
Speaker 1: and acceptable. Why when you grow a generation through the
7:03
Speaker 1: education system to be ashamed of this country, to hate America,
7:06
Speaker 1: and to believe that if they're not getting their way
7:10
Speaker 1: and you do not bow down to their beliefs, they
7:13
Speaker 1: can then literally kill you to get rid of you
7:15
Speaker 1: as a roadblock. The rhetoric is getting sharper, and the
7:19
Speaker 1: bullets are flying, and the lines, well, they're getting more extreme.
7:24
Speaker 1: The reason polling paints this troubling picture a significant portion
7:30
Speaker 1: of actual American voters. We're talking about millions of voters.
7:35
Speaker 1: Twenty five percent of the Democratic Party say political violence
7:39
Speaker 1: can be justified. Now just stop for a moment and
7:43
Speaker 1: think about this latest assassination attempt on President Trump. How
7:47
Speaker 1: do we get to the point or millions and millions
7:50
Speaker 1: of Americans one in four think that it's okay to
7:56
Speaker 1: kill someone, to hurt someone because they voted for something.
8:01
Speaker 1: You disagree with. Now, that's not some fringe entitlement on
8:05
Speaker 1: the internet. That's a real, measurable slice of the American population,
8:11
Speaker 1: the American electorate. And no matter your politics, whether you're Republican,
8:16
Speaker 1: a Democrat, and independent, you should be terrified knowing that
8:20
Speaker 1: in the United States of America, one out of four
8:23
Speaker 1: Democratic voters thinks they can kill you if they don't
8:26
Speaker 1: like what you're saying. Because once people start believing that
8:30
Speaker 1: violence is a legitimate answer, a legitimate political tool, we
8:35
Speaker 1: are no longer justibating ideas. We're entering a new dangerous territory.
8:40
Speaker 1: It's basically a coup whenever you want it. And it's
8:44
Speaker 1: time that we're honest about connecting these dots. It is,
8:48
Speaker 1: in fact, the education system is breeding a generation to
8:51
Speaker 1: hate this country. And when you have massive financial power
8:55
Speaker 1: from the teachers' unions, that money is now flowing heavily
8:59
Speaker 1: into one side the political spectrum, and a growing acceptance,
9:03
Speaker 1: at least among some of extreme tactics, including assassinating a
9:07
Speaker 1: sitting president. So that brings up the big question what
9:11
Speaker 1: kind of environment has the left created? Because these institutions
9:16
Speaker 1: they don't just reflect culture, they literally shape it and
9:20
Speaker 1: that's why Democrats chose years ago to take over our
9:23
Speaker 1: education systems, and they've done it completely. And when organizations
9:28
Speaker 1: tied directly by the way to our schools are deeply
9:32
Speaker 1: involved and the radical partisan politics, what happens then, Well,
9:38
Speaker 1: what gets emphasized in the classroom is what they believe.
9:41
Speaker 1: It's how literally the books are written, It's how the
9:44
Speaker 1: issues are framed, it's how the papers are assigned, it's
9:48
Speaker 1: how the discussions are organized, and it's how the next
9:52
Speaker 1: generation then understands America and politics itself. So the message
9:58
Speaker 1: that we all need to under stand right now is this,
10:02
Speaker 1: If major institutions are fully engaged in partisan battles with
10:06
Speaker 1: our tax dours and pouring massive resources into ideological causes,
10:12
Speaker 1: while part of the political base are becoming more accepting
10:14
Speaker 1: of this extreme rhetoric, then what are we actually teaching
10:18
Speaker 1: our kids? What are we teaching them directly? And also
10:22
Speaker 1: what are we teaching them indirectly? Are we teaching debate? No,
10:27
Speaker 1: what we are teaching is violence. We're teaching literal division.
10:32
Speaker 1: Are we encouraging critical thinking? No, we are enforcing and
10:37
Speaker 1: reinforcing that your political ideology is supreme over all others.
10:42
Speaker 1: There is no grand debate, and if the other side wins,
10:45
Speaker 1: you just kill them. Because kids are watching all of this,
10:50
Speaker 1: they're absorbing everything in the classroom, and then they're forming
10:54
Speaker 1: their own understanding of how the world works, how America works. Now,
10:58
Speaker 1: hopefully this is a wake up call for parents. It's
11:02
Speaker 1: why we're seeing in some places in the country. Parents
11:05
Speaker 1: are showing up by the thousands at school board meetings
11:08
Speaker 1: across this country, not because they want to fight with teachers,
11:12
Speaker 1: because now they're demanding answers. They're asking the basic questions
11:15
Speaker 1: we should have been asking years ago. Why is education
11:19
Speaker 1: becoming a political indoctrination. Why are unions spending billions on
11:26
Speaker 1: issues outside of the classroom, And why does it feel
11:29
Speaker 1: like ideology is creeping into spaces that used to be
11:33
Speaker 1: and are supposed to be neutral. These aren't unreasonable questions,
11:39
Speaker 1: they're basic accountability questions. We also know there's some simple truths.
11:45
Speaker 1: Money and power. Well, they're one and the same, and
11:49
Speaker 1: when you have both, when they're used for evil, there
11:52
Speaker 1: are real consequences. Money. Power is either a positive or
11:58
Speaker 1: a negative, And what we're witnessing right now is when
12:02
Speaker 1: the left spends a billion dollars on politics. Not only
12:05
Speaker 1: they gain hearts and minds and influence, but when they
12:08
Speaker 1: gain that influence, they're now shaping the outcome of what
12:11
Speaker 1: happens next. And when you shape those outcomes, demanding that
12:15
Speaker 1: there is political violence, that's exactly what is happening right now.
12:21
Speaker 1: So if you want to know why a guy by
12:23
Speaker 1: the name of Donald Trump got shot at yet again,
12:26
Speaker 1: let's be clear, it is because of what these kids
12:30
Speaker 1: have been indoctrinated to believe. It is because the radical
12:34
Speaker 1: left now has convinced twenty five percent of their own party,
12:39
Speaker 1: and that number actually may be higher. There's some that
12:41
Speaker 1: may have lied to the pollsters, not really wanting to
12:44
Speaker 1: say out loud that they believe in political violence, but
12:47
Speaker 1: that those that laugh about when the president gets shot,
12:50
Speaker 1: saying they wish the shooter would have been better at it.
12:54
Speaker 1: You know those people you see on social media that
12:56
Speaker 1: hide behind their computer screens. So here we are a
13:00
Speaker 1: third assassination attempt others we don't know about that were
13:05
Speaker 1: foiled before they became actual plans that were actually taken
13:09
Speaker 1: to the president, and a teachers' union or unions that
13:14
Speaker 1: are spending more than a billion dollars to influence the
13:19
Speaker 1: minds of our children to think and believe that killing
13:23
Speaker 1: someone you disagree with is warranted, is just, is appropriate.
13:31
Speaker 1: That is how we've gotten to where we are today.
13:34
Speaker 1: For the third time, there was another assassination attempt on
13:38
Speaker 1: the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump,
13:41
Speaker 1: and the question everyone should be asking is why does
13:45
Speaker 1: this keep happening? Could it be because we have now
13:49
Speaker 1: normalized political violence because of the media, late night TV,
13:54
Speaker 1: and the radical left. Just hours before the President of
13:58
Speaker 1: the United States of America attended with the First Lady,
14:01
Speaker 1: the White House correspondent Stinner on late night TV, Jimmy
14:04
Speaker 1: Kimmel decided to have a fake White House Correspondent Stinner segment,
14:09
Speaker 1: and this is what he said, after putting a picture
14:12
Speaker 1: of Milania Trump up on the screen. Our First Lady,
14:15
Speaker 1: Milania is here.
14:17
Speaker 2: Look at Moss so beautiful, missus Trump, you have a
14:19
Speaker 2: glow like an expectant widow.
14:23
Speaker 1: That is the man of late night TV, Jimmy Kimmel.
14:26
Speaker 1: Has he taken those words back?
14:28
Speaker 2: No?
14:28
Speaker 1: Has he apologized for those words.
14:31
Speaker 3: No.
14:32
Speaker 1: Even the president hours after the third assassination attempt on
14:36
Speaker 1: his life with an active shooter, the President sat down
14:40
Speaker 1: with sixty minutes to try to bring the country together.
14:43
Speaker 1: But what at Nora O'Donnell, supposed to be one of
14:45
Speaker 1: the true journalists left in journalism, what did she have
14:49
Speaker 1: to say? She went back to the talking points that
14:52
Speaker 1: make Americans hate President Trump, a talking point the left
14:56
Speaker 1: is used to radicalize individuals, just like this shoe at
15:00
Speaker 1: the White House correspondence dinner and bringing up the fact
15:03
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump is a king that you know, of
15:06
Speaker 1: course should be taken out.
15:08
Speaker 3: He had attended a no King's protest in California. Kings,
15:11
Speaker 3: what did security tell you about.
15:13
Speaker 2: What people like that? As you have people doing no kings?
15:18
Speaker 2: I'm not a king? What I am? If I was
15:20
Speaker 2: a king, I wouldn't be dealing with you.
15:22
Speaker 1: If I was a king, I wouldn't be dealing with you.
15:25
Speaker 1: Could it be that people like Hakeem Jeffries could be
15:29
Speaker 1: part of the problem, or could it be that it's
15:32
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi that is part of the problem. Could it
15:36
Speaker 1: be Democrats in general on TV that are part of
15:40
Speaker 1: the problem that are supposed to be journalists and commentators.
15:43
Speaker 1: I'm going to go back to how we got to
15:46
Speaker 1: this point. I'm going to play for you a montage
15:49
Speaker 1: of democrats on TV and elected officials calling for political
15:54
Speaker 1: violence over and over and over and over again.
16:00
Speaker 3: I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings all
16:03
Speaker 3: of the country, and maybe there will be.
16:05
Speaker 1: People need to start taking to the streets. This is
16:08
Speaker 1: a dictator.
16:09
Speaker 2: You know.
16:09
Speaker 3: There needs to be unrest in the streets for as
16:11
Speaker 3: long as there's unrest in our lives.
16:13
Speaker 2: Enemies of the state.
16:15
Speaker 1: Show me where it says that protests are supposed to
16:17
Speaker 1: be polite and peaceful.
16:19
Speaker 2: Do something about your dad's immigration practices.
16:22
Speaker 1: Effeckless time they go low.
16:24
Speaker 2: We can't.
16:25
Speaker 3: How do you resist the temptation to run up and
16:27
Speaker 3: wring her neck?
16:27
Speaker 2: Biggest tar of thread in this counteet is white men,
16:32
Speaker 2: most of them radicalized right to the right.
16:34
Speaker 3: I thought you should have punihed him in the face
16:36
Speaker 3: and say, even if you lost, he insulted your wife,
16:38
Speaker 3: he's on the escalator and called Mexican's rapist immersed.
16:41
Speaker 1: He said, well, what do you think I should have done?
16:42
Speaker 3: So?
16:42
Speaker 1: I think you should have punched.
16:43
Speaker 3: Him in the face and then gotten out of the race.
16:44
Speaker 1: You would have been a hero. I'd like to punch
16:46
Speaker 1: him in the face, I said, if we're in high school.
16:48
Speaker 2: I take you behind the gym and beat the.
16:49
Speaker 1: Hell out of him, punch some people in the face.
16:53
Speaker 1: When was the last time an actor assassinated and a president.
16:57
Speaker 1: They're still going to have to go out and put
16:58
Speaker 1: a bullet in Donald Trump.
16:59
Speaker 3: And that's a up.
17:03
Speaker 1: Looks his character is stabbed to death. Where is John
17:07
Speaker 1: Wilkes booth when you need?
17:12
Speaker 3: I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the
17:16
Speaker 3: White House.
17:18
Speaker 2: A Missouri state senator is under investigation by the Secret
17:22
Speaker 2: Service after saying she hopes President Trump is assassinatees. I
17:26
Speaker 2: will go and take Trump out to night and if
17:29
Speaker 2: you see.
17:29
Speaker 1: Anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store,
17:35
Speaker 1: at a gasolet station, you get out and Ukraine.
17:39
Speaker 3: A cloud and he got back.
17:42
Speaker 1: On them, and you tell them then and no God
17:46
Speaker 1: anyway anywhere.
17:48
Speaker 3: And sadly, the domestic enemies to our voting system and
17:51
Speaker 3: are honoring our constitution all right at sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue.
17:57
Speaker 3: They're not going to stop before election day in November,
18:00
Speaker 3: and they're not going to stop after election day.
18:02
Speaker 1: And that should be everyone should take note of that
18:04
Speaker 1: on both levels. That is, they're not gonna let up,
18:07
Speaker 1: and they should not. If you think, well now, you
18:10
Speaker 1: ain't say nothing yet. Could it be that we got
18:17
Speaker 1: to where we are right now because of the Democrats
18:20
Speaker 1: trying to inspire people to do exactly this. Could it
18:24
Speaker 1: be people like Hassan Piker in a New York Times
18:27
Speaker 1: interview saying this, this is the same man that Democrats
18:31
Speaker 1: are asking to come campaign with them. By the way,
18:34
Speaker 1: what I'm about to play with you for you was
18:37
Speaker 1: just four days ago. Don't pretend you oppose political violence
18:43
Speaker 1: if you're promoting in the Democratic Party this type of insanity.
18:47
Speaker 2: Engeles wrote about the concept of social murder and Brian
18:52
Speaker 2: Thompson as the United Healthcare CEO was engaging in a
18:57
Speaker 2: tremendous amount of social murder, the systematized forms of violence,
19:03
Speaker 2: the structural violence of poverty, the for profit, paywalled system
19:11
Speaker 2: of healthcare in this country, and the consequences of that
19:15
Speaker 2: are tremendous amounts of pain, tremendous amounts of violence, tremendous
19:20
Speaker 2: amounts of deaths. And that was a fascinating story for
19:25
Speaker 2: me because America's very draconian about crime and punishment. They're
19:29
Speaker 2: very black and white on this issue. And yet because
19:33
Speaker 2: of the pervasive pain that the private healthcare system had
19:40
Speaker 2: created for the average American, I saw so many people
19:43
Speaker 2: immediately understand why this death had taken place.
19:47
Speaker 1: That is an individual. Hassim Picker says that many understand
19:52
Speaker 1: why man NGIONI killed a United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson
19:55
Speaker 1: because Thomps himself was guilty of what he described as
19:58
Speaker 1: social murder. You go back to these democrats, You go
20:02
Speaker 1: back to what we found out about the Southern Poverty
20:04
Speaker 1: Law Center, the Southern Poverty Law Center giving money to
20:08
Speaker 1: klansmen so they can go out there and commit crimes.
20:12
Speaker 1: Hassan Piker, go back to him. He said, kill thee
20:15
Speaker 1: mother blankers, let the streets soak in their red capitalist blood.
20:20
Speaker 1: Three days ago, the New York Times promoted him Michigan
20:26
Speaker 1: Democrats how to Convention. A week ago, there were dolls
20:30
Speaker 1: with a noose around the neck of Donald Trump. That
20:34
Speaker 1: was three days ago. The terrorists, by the way, wrote
20:39
Speaker 1: in the manifesto that his motive was quote, I'm no
20:41
Speaker 1: longer willing to permit a pedophile, a rapist, a trader
20:45
Speaker 1: to coat my hands with his crimes. He set his
20:48
Speaker 1: targets were administration officials, not including mister Patel. They are
20:52
Speaker 1: targets prioritized from high ranking to the lowest. Three hours ago,
20:57
Speaker 1: what did Barack Obama say? Although we don't have yet
21:00
Speaker 1: the details about the most behind last night shooting at
21:02
Speaker 1: the White House correspondence dinner, it's incumbent upon us all
21:05
Speaker 1: to reject the idea that violence has any place in
21:08
Speaker 1: our democracy. It's also sobering reminder of the courage and
21:11
Speaker 1: sacrifice referring to those men and women in uniform. So
21:14
Speaker 1: let me get this straight. We know the motive, We
21:16
Speaker 1: know what was said in the manifesto. But Barack Obama
21:19
Speaker 1: tells the world and Americans tells Americans that we don't
21:24
Speaker 1: know the motive when we clearly do. This is the
21:27
Speaker 1: Democratic Party in twenty twenty six. Do you want to
21:29
Speaker 1: know why this happened. This is why it happened. I
21:33
Speaker 1: want to also bring up another really important story. You
21:37
Speaker 1: talk about the demise of civility in this country. It's
21:41
Speaker 1: not just the assassination attempts on President Donald Trump. We
21:44
Speaker 1: now have people advocating on the left for what they
21:47
Speaker 1: describe as micro looting. It is the progressive defense of
21:51
Speaker 1: theft and it's literally undermining the moral order in this country.
21:57
Speaker 1: If you're wondering what the hot new trend is among
21:59
Speaker 1: Brooklin progressives, and it's now gone viral, it's literally stealing
22:04
Speaker 1: from Whole Foods that according to a recent episode of
22:08
Speaker 1: The Opinions, It's a New York Times podcast. This podcast,
22:12
Speaker 1: they go intoup micro looting, talking taking small things from
22:17
Speaker 1: big corporations and feeling justified. The full half hour discussion
22:22
Speaker 1: is something the late Tom Wolf could have written a satire.
22:26
Speaker 1: One of the hosts, who resides in a two point
22:29
Speaker 1: seven million West Hollywood mansion, and another one of the hosts,
22:32
Speaker 1: whose family is sufficiently well off to run an alled
22:36
Speaker 1: human trafficking ring, present themselves as stalwart defenders of the
22:41
Speaker 1: poor and the down Trott engaged in radical actions against
22:45
Speaker 1: a violent system. You notice the same keywords they use
22:48
Speaker 1: against President Trump. Piker, one of the hosts, endorses stealing
22:51
Speaker 1: not just from Whole Foods, but also from other stores.
22:54
Speaker 1: Talantino says the other host blowing up pipelines is probably moral.
22:59
Speaker 1: Another host does a lot of giggling, of course, in
23:02
Speaker 1: the process. It's unlikely that micro leading has much currency
23:06
Speaker 1: outside the circles in which these individuals run more broadly. However,
23:11
Speaker 1: the endorsement of casual anti social behavior the City Journal
23:15
Speaker 1: Rights represents a genuine current on the American left of
23:19
Speaker 1: view that such conduct is permissible because it's really quote
23:23
Speaker 1: unquote the system that's unjust, so therefore you're justified in looting.
23:28
Speaker 1: That idea is likely to gain greater acceptance. We've seen
23:31
Speaker 1: it with flash mob looting of grocery stores and of malls.
23:35
Speaker 1: It's worth saying clearly why it's wrong, and the fact
23:38
Speaker 1: that we're even having to do it now is even
23:39
Speaker 1: more shocking. But the radicals say, no, no, no, this
23:43
Speaker 1: is appropriate. In fact, they say it goes back to
23:45
Speaker 1: the sixties and the defensive looting and violence during twenty twenty,
23:49
Speaker 1: including NPR. Their interview with the author of a book
23:53
Speaker 1: called In Defense of Looting shows you how far the
23:56
Speaker 1: propaganda has come. One of the hosts invoked the that
24:00
Speaker 1: looting around the twenty twenty protest, which was She says,
24:03
Speaker 1: such a huge talking point is made people so uncomfortable,
24:06
Speaker 1: and I'm curious, what do you think the root of
24:08
Speaker 1: that is? The idea that opposition to louting is confusing
24:12
Speaker 1: or in need of serious investigations not only ridiculous, but
24:16
Speaker 1: it's also alarming. The City Journal rights people dislike looting
24:20
Speaker 1: because they would rather their stuff wasn't taken, especially by force.
24:24
Speaker 1: There's no deeper there there. Yet, many on the left
24:28
Speaker 1: and the friends believe that Americans have a barely suppressed
24:32
Speaker 1: taste for crime. Piker, for example, implies that many regard
24:36
Speaker 1: the murder of the United Health CEO. Yes, you can
24:39
Speaker 1: kill anybody you don't like. That's the left's mantra. Now
24:41
Speaker 1: Brian Thompson was justified more than four or five more
24:45
Speaker 1: than four and five Actually do not see it that way,
24:48
Speaker 1: is what the polling data shows. But it's scary that
24:51
Speaker 1: one out of every five or one out of every
24:53
Speaker 1: four to five believe that you can kill the CEO
24:56
Speaker 1: of a company because you don't like them. This is
24:59
Speaker 1: the democ Ccratic party. This is what they believe. So
25:02
Speaker 1: whether it is this or let's just go back to
25:05
Speaker 1: they tried to kill President Trump hours ago, and Democrats
25:09
Speaker 1: are out there saying this at the Fight Oligarchy rally. Yes,
25:13
Speaker 1: this is after, I want to be clear, the President's
25:16
Speaker 1: third assassination attempt. Here they are, in their own words,
25:20
Speaker 1: we need Democrats, we'll have the courage to stand up
25:22
Speaker 1: to the power brokers in our own party, let alone
25:25
Speaker 1: Trump and his guals. We don't back down. We don't
25:36
Speaker 1: back down. We don't back down. With all due respective,
25:39
Speaker 1: they go low, we don't go high.
25:41
Speaker 2: We take them to the mud and choke them out.
25:43
Speaker 1: We take them to the mud and we choke them out.
25:45
Speaker 1: That is your Democratic candidate for the US Senate in Michigan,
25:49
Speaker 1: in Kalamazoo, Michigan. When they go low, we don't go high.
25:53
Speaker 1: We take them to the mud and choke them out.
25:55
Speaker 1: We kill them. So, whether it's Barack Obama claiming we
25:58
Speaker 1: don't know the White House Correspondent Center ummen's motives despite
26:01
Speaker 1: having a manifesto raving against Donald Trump, this is how
26:07
Speaker 1: they will try to rewrite everything. You think. That's the
26:10
Speaker 1: only one. Governor Roy Cooper, Democrat, North Carolina, remember what
26:15
Speaker 1: he had to say at a Biden rally. We are
26:17
Speaker 1: not going to let him because the position is already filled.
26:24
Speaker 1: We know that Donald Trump is an existential threat to
26:27
Speaker 1: our democracy and our nation, and we have to stop him.
26:32
Speaker 1: We are not We have to stop him. Donald Trump
26:36
Speaker 1: is an existential threat to our democracy, in our nation.
26:39
Speaker 1: We have to stop him translation, go kill him. You
26:43
Speaker 1: had a room full of journalists that watched a radicalized
26:46
Speaker 1: member of their own audience act literally on their reporting.
26:50
Speaker 1: That is what we witnessed at the White House Correspondence dinner.
26:54
Speaker 1: And what do they have to say, Oh well, never
26:57
Speaker 1: forget what they put on TV for a very long
26:59
Speaker 1: time time.
27:00
Speaker 3: Secastic terrorism is right when a leader uses language that
27:04
Speaker 3: is more likely than not to radicalize. Democracy is on
27:08
Speaker 3: the ballot still.
27:09
Speaker 2: Democracy is on the ballot.
27:11
Speaker 3: Democracy is on the ballot.
27:12
Speaker 2: Democracy is on the ballot.
27:13
Speaker 3: Democracy is on the ballot.
27:15
Speaker 2: Democracy is literally on the ballot. Democracy is on the
27:18
Speaker 2: ballot for this election.
27:19
Speaker 3: Vice President Harris has made very clear that democracy is
27:22
Speaker 3: on the ballot here. Democracy, of course, is, as the
27:26
Speaker 3: President likes to say, on the ballot. Terrorism experts call
27:29
Speaker 3: this stochastic terrorism, where somebody has been so demonized that
27:33
Speaker 3: it creates this heightened risk of loan of actors. Donald
27:37
Speaker 3: Trump is turning this nation into Nazi Germany. You don't
27:40
Speaker 3: have a president, as you said, talking about exterminating right Latina.
27:44
Speaker 3: A reelection of Donald Trump put me in the end
27:46
Speaker 3: of democracy.
27:47
Speaker 2: This would be the end of America.
27:48
Speaker 3: An actual Trump led one of the empire is the
27:51
Speaker 3: end of democracy. Sypastic terrorism is a way of using
27:55
Speaker 3: language that is clearly meant to incite some percentage of
28:00
Speaker 3: the people listening for a violent purpose.
28:04
Speaker 1: What does that potentially do for unbalanced people out there?
28:07
Speaker 1: He is destructive to our democracy and he has to
28:12
Speaker 1: be He has to be eliminated. He has to be eliminated.
28:18
Speaker 1: That was a sitting member of Congress who said that.
28:22
Speaker 1: And then you have a room full of journalists who
28:23
Speaker 1: are there when one of their radicals that they created
28:27
Speaker 1: gave them the fuel, the ammunition. A guy who attended
28:30
Speaker 1: the No Kings protests in California, a guy who gave
28:33
Speaker 1: to Kamway Harris's campaign. This is who they are. They
28:37
Speaker 1: radicalize the people that killed Charlie Kirk. They radicalize the
28:41
Speaker 1: people that are trying to kill Nick Shirley. Nick Shirley
28:43
Speaker 1: went on TV exposing this, saying, I've had death threats.
28:47
Speaker 1: One of them was specific about the date it's supposed
28:49
Speaker 1: to be coming up soon, the date they said they'd
28:51
Speaker 1: kill me. Last time I was in California, people were
28:54
Speaker 1: trying to dos my location live. So why did they
28:57
Speaker 1: go after Donald Trump? Because the leftist violence has been
29:00
Speaker 1: created by them. How do we get rid of looting
29:02
Speaker 1: by justifying the looting, changing the name to saying that
29:05
Speaker 1: it's normal to steal from stores that have money. And
29:09
Speaker 1: what did the President do? He tried to bring the
29:11
Speaker 1: American people back together, while ABC News and their fake
29:16
Speaker 1: White House correspondent speech Jimmy Kimmel actually jokes about Trump's
29:19
Speaker 1: assassin and the room laughs. That is the media. Don't forget.
29:26
Speaker 1: Share this podcast wherever you can with your family and
29:28
Speaker 1: your friends, and I'll see you back here tomorrow
