Ep. 2525 - THIS Shane Gillis Clip Broke the Internet

The transcript is a monologue from a conservative commentator covering several topics. It begins with promotional segments for Daily Wire's film "Run, Hide, Fight: Infidels" and Prime Video's "The Terminalist" Season 2, both emphasizing military authenticity. Political ads follow, urging early voting to stop Democratic Socialists in the midterms. The host then defends Shane Gillis' SNL joke about women dressing like "whores" at the gym, arguing that workout attire has become increasingly provocative and that female producers agree some outfits are inappropriate. He cites evolutionary biology studies showing men's visual attention to unclad women is a natural limbic response, distinguishing a passing glance from ogling. He criticizes Dan Levy and other celebrities for labeling the joke misogynistic, accusing the left of denying sex differences. The host then attacks Alex Cooper and Cornell professor Kate Mann for promoting a narrative of ubiquitous campus rape, linking this to the Cornell 7 case and arguing that sexual liberalism and the decline of marriage have damaged relations between the sexes. The transcript concludes with segments on Hasan Piker's extremism, left-wing political violence, the FBI search of Ilhan Omar's home over possible immigration fraud, Abdul El-Sayed's Senate race, and Kimberly Guilfoyle's alleged pay-for-access scandal.

Speaker 1You can't entertain Americans when you actually hate the average American. Their values, their belief systems, you know, the country that they love. Enter The Daily Wire. Our newest release, Run, Hide, Fight, Infidels, is finally streaming. Radical jihadists will destroy our freedom, but only if we let them. If you're a fan of those over-the-top action-packed films from the 80s and 90s, Red Dawn, Toy Soldiers, this is a movie you're not going to want to miss. Red-blooded American good guys taking on the radical Islamic terrorists to regain their freedom. Watch Run, Hide, Fight, Infidels. It's streaming now, only on The Daily Wire. Folks, a military thriller can give you elaborate conspiracies, international threats, and enormous action sequences. But if you don't actually care about the people who carry out the mission, none of that means much. And this is why The Terminalist is awesome. The people behind the mission. It's just great. The show is awesome. I love Terminalist. It really is great. Chris Pratt returns as Navy SEAL Commander James Reese in The Terminalist Season 2, now streaming only on Prime Video. It's adapted from Jack Carr's best-selling novel, True Believer. This season sends Reese into. into a fight that tests his loyalty, his sense of purpose, and the bonds with the brothers he thought he'd left behind. Tom Hopper returns as Rafe Hastings, who's an awesome character, alongside returning favorites Constance Wu, Dar Salim, and Luke Hemsworth, with Gabriel Luna joining the cast as Freddie Strain. And the commitment to military authenticity goes way beyond putting somebody in the right uniform. Real-world military experience is embedded throughout the production, from the writer's room and the director's chair to technical advisors, on-screen roles. This is realistic stuff. The people making this series are committed to getting it all right. For the people who have. actually lived it. And that matters when you're telling a story about what service asks of individuals, what it asks of their families, and the sacrifices that very rarely we get to see. Of course, you're going to get the high-stakes thriller. But you're also going to get a story about loyalty, impossible choices, and the brotherhood forged under extraordinary pressure. Watch The Terminalist Season 2 on October 21st, only on Prime. The Democratic Socialists of America, they've now won a bunch of primaries across the country. And next, they are coming for Congress, and they are coming for you. If they win the midterms, they will defund the police, if they go to the border, they will force men into women's sports. All that's going to happen. But you are the last line of defense, and GOPvotes.org is your partner in that fight. Head on over to GOPvotes.org right now. Make a plan to vote early. Okay, like, if you vote early, it means that you're definitely going to vote, right? You're not going to get distracted on the day of the vote. Your vote will count. If you live in critical Senate battleground states like Maine, Ohio, or Iowa, early voting is already happening this week. Now, the Democrats are energized, and the stakes have never been higher. We cannot afford to have all of AOC's allies or communist cronies joining. Running the show. It's why I need you to make a plan to vote early right this very second. Head on over to GOPvotes.org. Find your polling location, vote early, and stop the left-wing socialist takeover of the United States, paid for by SLF PAC, not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee.
Speaker 2Also, I haven't been to the gym in so long, I didn't know women just dress like whores now. Look, I'm sorry, there's no other way to describe. Have you seen it? I've seen it. The shorts? Have you seen the shorts? Those neon, they're like. The only, they're like artificial bait colored. The wrinkles, the wrinkles go like around the cheeks and all combine at the butthole. And don't look, you're not allowed to look. For real, don't look, because they are filming. I'm in the background of like 10 TikToks right now.
Speaker 1So, a lot of people are really, really mad at Shane Gillis' jokes. Like, really, really, really mad. Question. Are we supposed to pretend that women are dressing functionally at the gym? Like they used to, like 20 years ago. Or are we supposed to pretend that men don't have eyeballs? Which one is it? Alright, so as we say, Shane Gillis was back on SNL. Remember, he'd been banned from SNL because he said edgy things. And then he told a joke. That joke, right there. And people are really mad about it. So, among the people who are very, very mad. Dan Levy. So, Dan Levy is the son of Eugene Levy. And he is from Schitt's Creek. And he says this is misogynistic. It's just terrible. Dan Levy, tell me you're gay without telling me you're gay.
Speaker 3Women wearing short shorts to the gym does not make them whores. It makes the men calling them whores misogynists. There's a difference there. By the way, I've seen more men's nipples at the gym than I've ever seen women showing their bodies off. But I'm speechless that something like that can exist on live national television.
Speaker 1How can it even exist? Okay, I'm just going to put it out there. If you're a dude and you've seen more men's nipples at the gym, it's because you're looking for men's nipples. Don't know how else to put that. I mean, come on. Come on, for just a hot second. But he continues.
Speaker 3And to be perfectly honest, more men need to be standing up in opposition to it. Because it's complacency that has created the environment with which women are sexually assaulted. And it's a conversation as opposed to a crime. Men need to be defending women more. This is not a women's issue. This is an everybody issue. Because the more that men objectify women in the media, the more that other men see them as objects and treat them as objects. They are not objects. Thank you for your feminist theory class. They are superior human beings to men.
Speaker 1Which is why he likes men. Okay. Anyway. The celebs who commented on this post include Kristen Chenoweth, Viola Davis, Hannah Einbinder, of course, Elizabeth Banks. That post currently has 1.6 million views. Now, I'm not sure who is being tolerant of rape. In fact, Shane Gillis' opening joke in this SNL monologue is that he was hiking by himself. And there was an attractive woman coming the other way. And he had to make a face to demonstrate he was not out on the hiking trail to rape her. So it was an actively anti-rape set, shall we say. But the Hollywood Reporter is very upset about it as well. Tony Maglio writing, Maybe it's a good thing Shane Gillis was fired by Saturday Night Live before he even got started. On Saturday, Gillis rubbed. A whole lot of people the wrong way with several jokes in his SNL monologue. Kind of like he did the first two times he hosted. The main culprit this past weekend was an observational quip Gillis made about how women dress in the gym. SNL attracts liberal talent and a similar audience. It films in New York City. Its main target is Donald Trump. It shows writers and cast members are a generally diverse group of Gen Zers. That came up in improv, sketch, and stand-up comedy. By the way, by diverse, he just means racially or sexually diverse. Does not mean ideologically diverse, obviously. They don't listen to Joe Rogan. Gillis' buddy, who along with Theo Vaughn, is a great guy. Vaughn and Dan Soder kind of got a shout-out in the set. They don't drink. The Bud Light, Gillis endorses. Studio at 8-8-H is not the place for gay jokes and jokes against women. At the very least, if you tried them, it better be really strong. It was the wrong place for the joke. It was decidedly the wrong time. Oh, we're back to this. It's the wrong place for the joke. It's the wrong. This is a terrible, terrible joke. How dare he. So, number one. It's a joke. Now, let's just put it out. Again, a joke. You don't have to like the joke. You don't have to think that the joke. He speaks some sort of underlying truth. But it's just a joke. But I think we need to talk about why people are actually upset about this. By the way, Bridget Phetasy went one better than Shane Gillis here. She tweeted out. For the record, women dress like whores everywhere now, not just the gym. So, that's Bridget. Okay, in just one second, I'm going to ask my female producers to actually evaluate. The females. To actually evaluate whether women are dressing appropriately at the gym or not. So, we're going to see some people working out at the gym. You know, like being in shape. But if you want to be in shape, there's a better way to do it. Okay, so here's the deal. Right now, go to your fridge. There's probably a bunch of. Wilting veggies and kind of rotten fruit in there. Because you went to the grocery store one time. You bought all this stuff. You're like, I'm going to eat healthy. And now, you look in your fridge and it's a bunch of like moldy broccoli or something. Well, don't do that. Get into a routine. Three fruits capsules. Three veggie capsules. Two scoops of fiber and spice. Done. You don't need another hobby. You need something simple enough to keep doing.

Subscribe to their whole health system and use promo code Shapiro for 35% off. But let's talk about why people are so pissed off about this joke. What the blowback actually is. Let's separate this into two questions. One, are women dressing in more provocative fashion at the gym than they used to? In the colloquial parlance of Shane Gillis, are they dressing like whores? Right? So we'll get to that in a second. And second, are men evil, the second part of his joke, for their eyeballs glancing at scantily clad women at the gym? Because that's the opposition, right? That either women aren't dressing more provocatively than they used to, or that there are no predictable effects in life to women dressing more provocatively. One of those two things has to be true to be upset with Shane Gillis. One is that actually they're dressing perfectly normally at the gym. Again, we should take many women. There are many women who have just continued to dress like normal human beings at the gym. I would say that, you know, the majority of women that I see at the gym are dressing like normal human beings. When I'm at, when my wife goes to the gym, she dresses like a normal human. There are women at the gym who are not dressing as though they are there for functional reasons. Okay. And then there's the second question, which is the one that feminists are jumping on, which is even if women are. dressing, shall we say, in scantily clad fashion. Are men evil because their eyeballs move in that direction briefly? Right. These are the two questions, because you have to believe, one, that women are either not dressing more provocatively or two, that even if women are dressing more provocatively, the real problem is that men have eyeballs and those eyeballs sometimes glance at the women who are dressed provocatively. OK, so let's discuss these questions one at a time. This is a fraught topic, obviously, and so I'm going to try to remove myself from this a little bit. We need the help of objective eyes, female eyes. So we have asked our biologically female producers to help me out. By the way, I should note that Dan Levy and all the people who are very upset about the encroachment on female spaces are totally fine with full on men walking into women's locker rooms so long as they claim to be female. They can't even say what a woman is, but they want to defend women. Anyway, I need my biologically female producers to help me out here. So we shall call this test appropriate or inappropriate. We're going to ask the ladies because, again, I want to separate out the so-called male gaze from this discussion. We'll get to that in a moment. So producers Savvy and Sarah. We're going to look at some tick tocks of the gym women. And you tell me if these outfits are gym appropriate or not. I'm appropriate. Here is number one.
Speaker 4If female want respect, why she wear. Why is she. Why can I see her? If female don't want sex, why she wear tiny outfit so far. This is not horrible for my boob.
Speaker 1Yeah. OK, so I tend to agree. I mean, I, you know, you're. Your guys' take is more important than mine. Gym appropriate, gym inappropriate.
Speaker 5I say appropriate. I like her Spider-Man t-shirt. Nothing weird here. She's just doing regular workout moves.
Speaker 1OK, so I'm going to assume that this is not the person that Shane Gillis is probably talking about in this show. OK, so let's try another one of these.
Speaker 6Oh, this feels illegal. How is this on the internet?
Speaker 1Look at the guys in the background trying to avert their eyes. Right. You see this? You see the guys in the background trying to avert their eyes. You see the guys literally directing their gaze downward toward their phone, desperately trying not to look.
Speaker 6I have to avert my gaze. I'm like, ma'am.
Speaker 5No, I'm like, damn, she is yoked.
Speaker 1OK. Yes, she's naked.
Speaker 5Like, there's no difference between that and.
Speaker 1And a whore, you might say. Yeah. And like what a whore would wear. I mean, like, again, a whore is a thing with the definition. Is this what a prostitute would wear in public? If this woman were walking down Hollywood and Vine, would she be out of place? No. No. I'm not saying that you guys get to say it. I mean, come on. And she's doing it for attention. Is she there because she really, really, really needs to do deadlifts dressed like this?
Speaker 5No. In fact, it would be so uncomfortable. I would be worried about, like, leaning over. I'd be worried about doing anything in that outfit.
Speaker 1Yeah. Yes. I mean, we used to reserve this sort of dress for either marriage or, more lately, the beach. But the gym is probably not the place where you're going to want.
Speaker 6This has been up too long. We need the next one. OK. Yeah. Well, you're right. You're correct. Move on. Move on. OK.
Speaker 1Yeah, this is not getting better.
Speaker 6Great quads. Because I love quads. We're not. This is too much. OK. That one's not bad. Sweatpants. Upright rows. We like it. OK. Here is where I have issue. This is like a bathing suit top. No support. Right. Yeah. Like, there's nothing functional about that top.
Speaker 1Well, that's the right word. It's functional. Like, is this all functional? Or, like, we'll get to why women are dressing like this in a second. But, like, I mean, inappropriate or appropriate, guys? What's the ruling?
Speaker 5Inappropriate. Inappropriate. OK. Oh. Yeah. It's just like those. Those are those shorts that exactly what Gillis was talking about, where it just cinches in right at the crack.
Speaker 1This is right. This is right. We might, you know, I've talked on the show about face tattoo syndrome. This is ass crack syndrome. Like, I'm sorry. Like, I'm going to wear something totally, you know, eye drawing. And then if you look, I'm going to, like, be really, really, really mad. Like, you can get a face tattoo. Like, I'm sorry. Like, you didn't have to build the shorts that way.
Speaker 6Allie Beth Stuckey said it best. Wedgies used to be bullying. Now they're in. They're cool. Everyone has a wedgie. You should do it, too.
Speaker 1Yeah. All right. Last ones here.
Speaker 6Do we have more? I think we have more. Oh, OK. This one is way too much for my eyes. Yeah. OK. Get ready.
Speaker 1Well, Dan Levy should be able to identify the nipples.
Speaker 5Yeah. This is, like, way too much. I'm like, OK. Yeah. What is the purpose?
Speaker 1I think this is what Shane Gillis is talking about, guys. I'm pretty sure this is what Shane Gillis was talking about. Because, by the way, this is not uncommon at gyms. Just going to say, it isn't. It's not uncommon anymore. Like, you think that we're, like, you know, picking kind of fruit off the tree randomly here, that we're seeking these things out. But, I mean, girls, you've been to the gym lately. Ladies. I mean, have you seen women who dress sort of like this? I mean, this is an exaggerated version, but, like.
Speaker 6No, this is not that much of an exaggeration, honestly. And, again, like, you go ahead and dress like that. You look great. You're jacked, whatever. But you can't be pissed when someone looks at you. You're screaming for attention.
Speaker 5Also, I feel like. All the guys in these clips. I mean, maybe we'll talk about this. But all the guys in these clips that they're complaining about are just not the, like, cute gym crush guy that they're trying to get the attention from. So, it's just they're annoyed that the wrong guy is looking at them.
Speaker 1Well, I mean, what's funny about this is that it's basically a catch-22. I mean, look at it. Because all these guys know they're on camera. And so, they're not even glancing. Which, you know, they should try not to glance anyway. But, like, you can see this guy in the background here militantly attempting to look the other way. Because he knows that if he's caught on camera, so much is glancing in the direction of the very, very attention. Seeking woman. That he will then be plastered all over TikTok. Clearly. Okay. So, why did we pause on this? I mean, obviously, because Shane Gillis is not totally wrong. I mean, like, there's a basis. Again, we separated this into two questions, right? One was, are women dressing more inappropriately at the gym than they used to? And the answer is pretty clearly yes. And when we say women, we don't mean all women. Lots of women dress modestly at the gym. Including, I would assume, our wonderful producers. But, there's a difference between dressing modestly or functionally at the gym. Or even wearing the leggings. And doing what these ladies are doing. Very often, they're doing it on camera. So, why do women dress this way? Especially on social media. So, again, we should separate out the functional spandex workout clothes from the kind of hoey workout clothes. Why do women mimic each other when it comes to fashion? That's really what's happening here. So, that was simultaneously entertaining and awkward. But I'll tell you something that doesn't have to be awkward. Making sure that your old memories are actually maintained. Okay. So, over in your garage. You got a bunch of stuff hanging out there right now, right? I got the old film. You got the old film reels from mom and dad. You got the old pictures. You have everything in a non-digital format. That is a problem because it's all degrading in real time.

So, there was actually an experiment done back in 1983 where 160 women changed their judgments of clothing when they were given more opinions from fashion experts. So, women tend to herd. The same thing is true with men, but women do it with regard to fashion. There's a 2016 study in the PLOS One where women demonstrated what they call selective conformity to fashion norms depending on their socioeconomic setting. So, again, women will follow each other around in this way. And also, if one woman goes to the gym dressed like this and men start paying attention to that woman, it is possible that other young women would also like male attention. And the first woman has sort of broken a collective bargaining agreement between the women and now she's receiving all the attention. And if you want attention of men at the gym, I assume this is one way that women get attention at the gym. I mean, as Sarah was saying before the show, in New York City, this is not wildly uncommon. People flirt at gyms. People, you know, find crushes at the gyms. Like, it is a dating place in many places around the country, I assume. So, here's the reality. We live in what is now a very, very liberal society. And women, you know when you're dressed appropriately and when you're not. You do. Stop pretending. You generally know. Again, I will ask the women. Sarah, Savvy, do women generally know when they're dressed appropriately? Because they do in literally every other setting. So, I assume they know when they're dressed appropriately at the gym and when they're not. 100%. Right. I mean, this is how normal people behave. I mean, like, normal people know things. And as we'll get to in a minute, so much of what is happening in the response to Shane Gillis is also the response, by the way, to the Cornell 7, which is we're just going to pretend that men and women don't exist except as weird androgynous widgets or something. Okay. So, now we get to the second part of the question, right? So, remember, the joke was that women are dressing like whores. That's what he said. And that men are supposed to not look. So, we challenged the first half, right? Are women dressing more provocatively? Take out the jokey whore joke. But are women dressing less modestly at the gym? The answer is many women are. Right. Duh. And that's not just me saying that. It's the female producers. So, you can yell at them. But now to the second question and the more important one for our purposes. The assumption that men need to gouge out their eyes with a spoon if women choose to dress inappropriately at the gym. Right. Because that's the other thing that. That. Dan Levy and so many libs today are saying. Well, even if women dress basically nude at the gym, why are men looking? Women are higher creatures. Men cannot look. Men must not look. Okay. So, let us be clear about how evolutionary biology works. Men are attracted to unclad women. I know. The fact that I have to explain this stuff to people, like fully developed adults. I'm sorry. Our entire society has frontally lobotomized itself. Going back throughout literally all of human history. You know what men are into? The unclad women. Duh. Hey, but just because some people require actual scientific studies to confirm the obvious, there was a 2016 study in the Archives of Sexual Behavior where researchers briefly presented nude or partially clothed male and female images, followed by a target that participants had to detect. Heterosexual men detected targets faster when they appeared where the female image had been. Evidence their attention had shifted toward it, even though the task wasn't even to attract, evaluate attractiveness. Meanwhile, women showed no preference in attention to male pictures or to female pictures because men and women's limbic systems don't work the same way. Because of evolutionary biology, where men inherently desired to procreate with as many women as possible, the brain was built so that men direct their attention at unclad women. OK, that just happens naturally. That is a normal thing. It is why Where's Waldo is the series and not Where's Naked Lady, because Where's Naked Lady, a dude could go through that book in approximately 0.7 seconds. The entire book. A 2011 study published in the PLOS One looked at the human brain's response to nude people, people in swimsuits and fully clothed people. Electrical activity associated with visual processing peaked 170 milliseconds after an image appeared. Nudity produced a stronger early brain response than clothed people and males exhibited a stronger brain response to female nudity. Now, again, that just means that if an unclad or scantily clad woman walks through the room, a man will immediately divert his eyes toward it. And then. What happens next is your conscious decision making, right? This is the part that matters for men. OK, again, Shane Gillis says you're supposed to avert your eyes. You are supposed to avert your eyes, but there's a difference between the passing glance and gawking, right? Obviously, there are creepy dudes who exist and who are just staring and ogling at women. That's gross and it's creepy and they shouldn't do it. Also, if you wear scantily clad clothing to the gym and a guy directs his gaze toward you and then away. That is how human beings. That's how human biology works. That's how human. Again, if you're Abdul Al-Sayed and your entire Instagram is filled with OnlyFans models, I can assume that you keep lingering over the Instagram OnlyFans models.
Speaker 7If you're on Instagram, my team has has access to my Instagram account and like the things that I actually look at on Instagram, right? Of course, we get served that on your for you page. But then like every third video that scrolls on its own is going to be some OnlyFans model. And it's because it clocked me as being a 40. Some year old man.
Speaker 1Well, I'm pretty sure it clocked you as doing something else, my dude. Because if you don't hover over those pictures, it's not going to feed you more of them. That's the way the algorithm actually works. But again, here's the point. Both men and women have agency. Men in America generally are not interested in putting women in burqas unless you're in Minneapolis or Dearborn or you're Abdul Al-Sayed's wife. And well-adjusted women in America are probably familiar with that feeling where what they're wearing feels inappropriate for the setting that you're in. Again, women are. We're not wearing white coats and stethoscopes to the gym. That would be inappropriate. It's also inappropriate if you show up dressed like some of the women who we showed earlier who, again, are seeking attention. It is they themselves putting these pictures up. This is not randos taking pictures of them. This is emperor's new clothes kind of stuff. A woman who dresses like that takes a picture of herself, puts it on the Internet for attention and then gets upset when people notice. Now, again, all of this is basic and logical. And again, I will note for the record, the same people who are condemning all men, all men are bad for having eyeballs that connect to their limbic system and testosterone running through their body. I don't condemn Sidney Sweeney as a whore for being unclad in a commercial for a sports betting app, not at the gym in a sports betting app commercial. So what is behind all this? Why is this even an important story? Why is the backlash important? Why? Because we as a society have now developed a fundamental inability to understand the differences between the sexes. We have to pretend that men don't women and men don't exist and women don't exist and they're not different. But here's the thing. The world exists around you. You shouldn't walk around the world with zero regard or consequence for how people will face with you and how human beings interface with the world. If you are scantily clad clothing to the gym, there will be predictable responses to that. Doesn't mean the responses are always right. It also doesn't mean that if a guy glances at you, that he has done something deeply, deeply wrong. Difference in glancing and ogling. One is a natural limbic system response, and the other is the guy being kind of trashy. But what this really bespeaks, and this is why the left has bought into all this sort of stuff, is the idea that women are never responsible for any decision they make. This is how you end up at the Cornell 7 case. You want a connection from the Shangela story to the Cornell 7 case? It is the idea that a woman can engage in any behavior she wants, up to and including having sex with multiple men voluntarily and then texting them later to say it was voluntary and she enjoyed it, and then claim that she was raped. That women have no agency and men have ultimate agency, but also women have ultimate agency and men have no agency. So all those things are true all at the same time. This brings us to Alex Cooper. So Alex Cooper is a trashy, trashy podcast host. She spends her entire time on the internet. Now she's married and going to have a kid, and she spends her entire career promoting promiscuity and treating men in ugly fashion and sexually manipulating men. And now she's complaining that we are in a society where men and women don't seem to be able to function together. I wonder why. Why did that happen, Alex Cooper? It's all shocking.
Speaker 8It has been almost a decade since the Me Too movement first started. A decade. How the hell are we? How are we still here? Right? We have been talking about campus rape, consent, the way institutions fail women for even longer than that. We've got the language. We have the research. We have the tools and the resources to understand sexual violence, to help survivors, and to prevent it from happening. And yet we are still having the exact same conversations. It is exhausting. And more importantly, it is infuriating. More than once. One in five women have experienced rape. One in five women.
Speaker 1That statistic is nonsense. That statistic is total nonsense. It completely redefines everything that a woman doesn't like from literally a guy going in for a kiss and her rejecting it to actual rape is rape. That's where that statistic comes from. But one of the reasons why the Me Too movement is still in question is because you keep taking bad examples like Jane Doe at Cornell and insisting it's rape. Not only do I think rape is bad, I think the rapist should be castrated or killed. But I think that the rape actually has to be a rape. But here is the problem. Alex Cooper has promoted a notion in the world that anything that a woman does, including having consensual sex with men and then later saying she regrets it and accusing them of rape is basically fine. By the way, her past episodes are all about manipulation of men. She has episodes called Exposing Our Body Counts or Christina Aguilera Getting Dirty and Talking Sex or Exposing My Athlete Roster, which is all the athletes that she slept with. And by the way, I don't know if you've heard of her. I don't know if you've heard of her. And by the way, the kinds of guests she has on the show, people like Nikki Glaser, who says it's hot when her husband sleeps with other women. But by the way, if she had said that her husband is a piece of trash for sleeping with other women, then also Alex Cooper would have agreed.
Speaker 8You call this the hot husband fetish. Yes. Which is essentially when you want your partner to have sexual experiences with other people outside of the relationship. Yeah. So when did this start for you, Nikki? Let's go back.
Speaker 9This started with my boyfriend when I was 29 because I really hadn't had a boyfriend before then. He would tell me about, like, I would always ask him. I would ask him about, like, past hookups and girlfriends and how they got together. Like, I was like the beginning. Like, how did you guys first know you liked each other? Like, I love that, like, our legs were touching on our table and neither of us moved our leg or something like stuff like that. I'd be like, so, like, I don't know. It would make me, like, horny to, like, think about him doing that with other girls.
Speaker 1This is the kind of stuff that Alex Cooper pushes. Oh, and by the way, here she is explaining her strategy on how to get the attention of a famous Red Sox player. You won't believe it. It's to get drunk and dress provocatively.
Speaker 8And I progressively get more and more and more. More and more and more intoxicated. And I get this courage about me thinking in my drunken state that if I can get him to have one of our deep, classic, honest, vulnerable conversations we always have in bed, and if I push up the titties enough, he's obviously going to leave that girl and he's going to end up with me tonight. It's classic. It's one plus one equals two.
Speaker 1Like, done. Okay, but the way that she was pursuing the guy from the Red Sox was to push up her breasts and then get incredibly, incredibly drunk. But now here she is suggesting that we have a ubiquitous problem across college campuses with rape. She had on a professor from Cornell named Kate Mann, who is a professor of philosophy specializing in moral, feminist, and social philosophy. She's written three books, including Down Girl, The Logic of Misogyny, one called How Male Privilege Hurts Women. And of course, Unshrinking, How to Face Fat Phobia. Oh boy. So, here we go.
Speaker 10This is absolutely not a uniquely Cornell problem. And I say this not to defend my employer. I have been very vocally critical of Cornell's response to these allegations. But this is a ubiquitous problem across campuses. And when it is a man versus a woman scenario, very often nothing happens to the alleged perpetrator. Even when there's really good evidence and the female victim ends up in a terrible position. So, the system is just not working as it should. And frankly, it's not even clear to me that it is even designed to support survivors.
Speaker 1Okay. So, I'm just going to point out again, they're talking about the Cornell 7 case where the girl texted the guy she had sex with saying she enjoyed it, calling it a gangbang, and saying that she consented to everything and nothing illegal happened. And they're saying that this is a cover-up by the cops at the university. And then they're saying that this is a cover-up by the cops at the university. Then Alex Cooper and Kate Mann find themselves arguing for a zero tolerance sexual misconduct. conduct policy. Here's what they have to say.
Speaker 10I really think that we need to become a zero tolerance campus and that all campuses need to apply this policy where if we find someone responsible for a serious kind of sexual misconduct, that leads to an expulsion. I completely agree.
Speaker 1Well, I mean, I think everyone agrees that if someone is found actually responsible for an act of sexual misconduct, they should be expelled. I haven't even harsher zero tolerance policy. It's called marriage. It's where you only have sex with the person you're married to. I know it's crazy. It's this crazy idea that I came up with after looking at thousands of years of human history, where like you only have sex with the person that you have a lifelong commitment to. I know that's crazy. And that's that's really bad. That's really prudish and everything. It does tend to escape virtually all the problems we've been talking about today, I noticed. But instead, this Cornell professor, the wisest among us, Kate Mann, is explaining what she calls hympathy, hympathy.
Speaker 10So hympathy is my word for the scenarios where we have sympathy and loyalty for a male perpetrator of misogyny over a female victim. So basically, we feel bad for him who did the thing that is awful over someone who is the victim of that harmful behavior. And so we see this. I actually coined the term in relation to Brock Turner. He was found guilty, convicted of sexually assaulting Chanel Miller behind a dumpster at Stanford's campus after a fraternity party. And yet so many people worried about him missing out on his bright future rather than the fact that what about her bright future? What about the way she was shattered? What about the ways that this, as we now know, brilliant writer and creator and artist had her life derailed for years by what he did to her? Is this a widespread thing
Speaker 1that like men only have sex with women? Do you have sympathy for actual rapists? Is that a thing? Really? And then Alex Cooper concludes by suggesting that basically all of the ordinary guys that you know are probably rapists, or at least rapists look like the ordinary guys.
Speaker 8Is the amount of women in the comment section that are like, oh, she she texted him the next day. I stayed with my rapist for two more years and continued to date him. I called him the next day and asked if you wanted to go to pizza with you. I I went to his house the next day. I had consensual sex with him the next day. It is so confusing, I think, because we have not been able to find the right way to talk about this because it's so secretive, right? That people start to, again, he's a monster. No, no, this is your friend's brother. This is your neighbor. This is the kid that sits next to you in class. And they look like ordinary guys.
Speaker 1Well, I mean, no, actually, the person who raped you is a rapist. Like, that's how rape works. What Alex Cooper is preaching is that women are inherently all the time victims. This is why the Me Too movement failed, because the Me Too movement was the idea that all women had the same experiences as every woman who'd been raped. The vast majority of women were victims of rape, that men are inherently victimizers, and that you ought to be wary of all men as cruel and inhumane. Basically, Alex Cooper is to women as Andrew Tate is to men. They are the same thing, but mirror images. She's just as predatory rhetorically as Andrew Tate is. And what's worse, they actually drive each other. So Alex Cooper says women should sleep around endlessly and flaunt their body count and flaunt their sexuality in order to manipulate men. Get drunk. Push up your boobs. Go just get guys. And then, even if there's no evidence of rape, we should believe female allegations because, listen, aren't men all pigs? Aren't they just gross? And you should just manipulate them. They're just bad. Andrew Tate says that women view you as pigs and sexually manipulate you and lie about you and then divorce you and take your assets. So that means you should treat women as trash because essentially they are. So you've got Alex Cooper saying men are pigs and Andrew Tate saying women are trash. And that's an endless doom loop of the battle between the sexes. And by the way, all of it's evil, like truly and actually evil, because there is nothing more evil on this planet than driving a wedge between men and women. The single most important thing happening on planet Earth every single day is in the words of the books of Genesis, in the book of Genesis, therefore, a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife and they shall become one flesh. So here's how that works. Men exist and women exist. Men exist and they are not the same. They don't function the same. And they're not enemies. They are partners. They are made for one another, as it says in Genesis. And guess what? We spent thousands of years developing social institutions that allow men and women to become one flesh for all time. Men, thanks to evolutionary biology, are driven by the desire to have sex with lots of women. Women, also thanks to evolutionary biology, are far more discriminating because they have to carry and nourish children. So we created marriage in order to curb men's appetite and in order to ensure a father to raise children and defend the wife. Far from being a patriarchal and evil institution, marriage is the greatest boon to both women and also men. Women, because it provides them with a man to act as defender, protector, lover, and father. And men, because marriage provides them with responsibility and nurturing and a reason to create and build. So George Gilder, who's a philosopher and economist, he wrote a fascinating book called Men and Marriage. It's back in the 70s. And he said this, In a world where women do not say no, a man is never forced to settle down and make serious choices. His sex drive, the most powerful compulsion in his life, is never used to make him part of civilization as a supporter of a family. If a woman does not force him to make a long-term commitment to marry, in general, he doesn't. It is maternity that requires commitment. His sex drive only demands conquest at driving him from body to body in an unsettling hunt for variety and excitement in which much of the thrill is in the chase itself. Obviously, the most enduring way to make this commitment is through marriage. Yet because sexual liberals deny the difference between the sexes, they're exploiting the sexes. And so, in a world where women do not say no, a man is of course it is. Because guess what? Men and women, not the same. Again, it is incredible how many obvious things I have to say on this show about things that are perfectly obvious to the smallest children. But that's where we are in society. That is where we are. And again, it's amazing that because we decided to reject age-old wisdom and also basic common sense, we are now going to have to apparently reverse engineer conservatism from first principles. That's where we are now. So now, in response to Shane Gillis' joke, there are a lot of women who are talking about maybe we should have separate sexes at the gym so the men aren't just ogling scantily clad women. Hey, you know, we used to call that just modesty and decency. Or we're saying that men and women should only have sex with people with whom they share commitment because otherwise something deeper might be violated. Hey, you know what we used to call that one? We used to call it marriage. So great, great job, everybody. All it took was several generations of destroying relations between the sexes, the end of marriage as an institution, skyrocketing rates of suicidal ideation, depression, divorce, childlessness, all to get back to where common sense said we should be for legitimately centuries. So just great job, everybody. Great job. Okay, so all of this is downstream of even greater societal failure. The treatment of fellow human beings as objects, right? Men treating women like objects, women treating men like objects. Nobody has the ability to discern what human looks like. True sexually, as we've been talking about, but it's also true politically. And this is why the left has no problem upholding the violent misogynist, Hassan Piker. So Hassan Piker, again, has become a crucial figure to the left. And he hates democracy. And he hates American principles. Jonathan Chait writes at The Atlantic, the most important problem within inviting Piker to join the pro-democracy coalition is that by any reasonable definition of the term, he doesn't believe in democracy. Piker declared in a debate this year, I say we put the power back in the few. If a dictatorship is inevitable, I'd rather have it be a dictatorship of the proletariat than one that is designed around the needs of the bourgeois class. He says, I love London. I love Fidel Castro. I love Che. They're genuinely effing heroes. Now, he was on a podcast with a person named Ziwe, an American comedian from Massachusetts with Nigerian immigrant parents. She went to Northwestern University, and then she interned at Comedy Central. And she has a bunch of celebrities on the show. Well, she had on Hassan Piker, and here he was, not being able to say, don't be violent to the cameras while wearing a Mao outfit.
Speaker 4Why don't you encourage your audience to, like, get pitchforks and overthrow the government?
Speaker 11We would all collectively go to prison. I feel like there is a time and place for labor militancy, organized labor in general. We're not there yet.
Speaker 4Got it. So you're saying to the audience, pacify, don't be violent, if you could just say that to camera.
Speaker 11Yeah, pacify, don't be violent.
Speaker 1What? So, again, he's perfectly fine with violence. That is his thing. And this is a treasured member of the Democratic Party at this point. Ziwe listed a bunch of horrible things Piker has said, and, again, he agrees with all of them.
Speaker 4You said that America deserved 9-11. You said that your favorite flag is Hezbollah's.
Speaker 11I didn't get suspended for that one.
Speaker 4You said, I'm just listing things.
Speaker 11Oh, okay, sorry.
Speaker 4You said that a Vietnamese communist refugee should suck a dick. You said that Mussolini has a fat ass. You said that, you joked that can we go back to a better time when lynchings were happening. You said, you got me, I'm a racist. You said that billionaire fail sons should rape billionaire fail daughters from a utilitarian perspective. What the fuck is wrong with you?
Speaker 1Okay, and, of course, what Ziwe is trying to do is actually normalize him, right? Because the idea is that she's asking this in mocking fashion, but, like, that would really be the question is, what is wrong with you? with you? Now, the answer is that he is a terrible person, Hassan Piker. So, Ziwe asked him about that clip where he suggested that a Vietnamese woman perform a sexual act on him.
Speaker 11F*** you, old lady. Ho Chi Minh, suck my a**, old lady. Why don't you go back and live in South Vietnam in the same conditions, if that's your perspective? Well, because I feel like if you're MAGA, if you're right-wing, if you're a Nazi, you know, I'm going to be vulgar with you. It just, it doesn't matter. I don't think you get to do identity politics at that point. You can't utilize your background to say that you're under attack when the policies that you're advancing and advocating for are unbelievably harmful for not only the Asian-American population, but every, you know, black and brown person in this country, and immigrants and refugees
Speaker 1alike. So, he gets to say whatever he wants about women. He's not arguing with her argument, right? He's telling her that she should perform a sexual act on him. And that's totally fine with the left. Well, listen, maybe that's the way they do it in Turkey, which is where he is from. Because it turns out, according to a journal of sex research from Turkey at public universities in Ankara, 30% of respondents reported perpetrating at least one act of sexual aggression since age 15. So, maybe this is commonplace in places that Hasan Peker is actually from. But here in America, we shouldn't be doing this sort of thing. Again, Hasan Peker, it's totally excused from the media. It's totally excused. He openly says, by the way, that he would like a USSR here in the United States.
Speaker 4Now, what is your dream for America?
Speaker 11Full-blown United Soviet Republic of the United
Speaker 4States. And what's your favorite Malcolm X
Speaker 11quote? I don't have one. Okay. Actually, you know what? I'm going to redo that. I do have a Malcolm X quote. Okay, please. If you don't pay close attention, newspapers will have you thinking that those who are victims of injustice are your enemies, and those who are doing the injustice are not the oppressors. Something along those lines. I paraphrased it. I'm not very good with recall.
Speaker 1He's not very good with recall because he is both stupid and also a terror-supporting communist. And again, the Democratic Party loves this. Jennifer Welch, who, again, I will never understand why anyone would watch Jennifer Welch. It makes no sense to me. If you had to create an obnoxious human being in a lab, if you wanted to create, like, a Karen in a lab, it would be Jennifer Welch. But here she was with Hassan Piker bragging that he has turned her son into the president of Antifa.
Speaker 12Because the toughest progressive people in this country are the boots on the ground in red states. It makes you more liberal. It makes you more progressive. And just like tying it back to my mother, my politics weren't completely fixed. I did the best I could in this red hellscape. And I thought, I remember my son, who listens to you all the time. I put up a Hillary Clinton sign. He was like, God, Mom, you're a moderate. And I was like, a moderate? Are you kidding me? I am so liberal, Dylan. He's like, exactly. A liberal. Right? Because Hassan indoctrinated him, and now he's the president. And now my son's the president. Of Antifa. But the people, red dots and blue dots in red states.
Speaker 1Again, this is what the Democratic Party is all about. It's not just Jennifer Welch. The DNC chair, Ken Martin, was asked about the Democratic Socialists of America. That's Hassan Piker's group, basically. Are they an ally or a liability? And his answer was, oh, they're our friends. We love them.
Speaker 13They're great. Last question. DSA, Democratic Socialists. An ally or a liability for the Democrats, as you've seen the way they've been branded. This party's being branded by Republican opponents.
Speaker 14Well, let me just say, I've always taken a big, tent approach on how you build a party. That's why I was successful for all these years in Minnesota. I believe you win through addition, not subtraction. You win by growing your coalition, not shrinking it.
Speaker 13And sometimes. Is it true in the middle, though, when Americans see that?
Speaker 14No, not at all, because that's where the vast majority of Americans are at. Maybe right in the middle, or it's the little center left, or the little center right. Now listen, Hassan
Speaker 1Piker and crew, they are out redefining the left into a violent group of anarchic thugs and cretins, and the Democratic Party is very into this. And this is how violence gets mainstreamed. It does. It's a permission structure for violence. I mean, he's openly joking about violence and treating women horribly and all of this. And it's not a shock, right? I mean, we saw gigantic leftist riots in 2020 that did billions of dollars in property damage and cost them actual lives. And we see it even in sleepy little towns like Livingston, Montana. We were filming our new film there, and there are a wide variety of threats, including a man driving a pickup truck through barricades toward our production crew at 30 miles an hour, screaming, you guys are fascists, F-U. And a man with a fraudulent tag on his vehicle, pinning two of our security managers against a wall, only stopping when one of the security places his hand on his sidearm, and all the rest. Again, this is what left-wing violence is. And it's becoming totally normalized in America. It is quite real. But according to the media, by the way, the only true political violence in America comes from, wait for it, MAGA. So the New York Times, a big article yesterday, talking about the evils of MAGA and violent threats. And here's what the New York Times says. Serving in public office in the United States is dangerous. From state and local government to Congress, an unending river of violent threats is washing through the mailboxes, offices, voicemail, and texts of those who govern the nation. Thousands of public servants are living, working, and in the final weeks of election season, campaigning in a state of fear. And it's getting worse, officeholders said in dozens of interviews. So, who are the main characters in this particular New York Times story? You'll be unsurprised to find that the main victims, according to the New York Times, are Marjorie Taylor Greene. Remember, they hated her until she turned anti-Trump, then they loved her. So Marjorie Taylor Greene is the big victim. Tim Walls, who's the big victim. And Senator Alyssa Slotkin, who is the big victim. It must be Trump's fault. It's all the MAGA of it. Now, ignore the fact that Steve Scalise was nearly shot to death on a baseball field. Ignore the fact that Charlie Kirk was shot to death. Ignore the fact that, again, the numbers that they cite here, by the way, are kind of hilarious. They say that there were quote-unquote thousands of threats to something like 200 Congress people over the course of two years. Okay, folks, that's amateur hour. I gotta say. I gotta up those numbers. My security clocks as a threat to my safety or that of my family over 5,000 threats per year. I'm one human. Okay, so, when I talk about where the threats are coming from, let me just say, an enormous number of threats come from the left. An enormous number. Not all. There are people who are part of the neo-fascist right who do issue threats. That is a real thing, but the attempt by the media to spin political violence as though it is emerging only from sort of mainstream MAGA is totally insane and not backed by the statistics. Alrighty, other big news of the day. We now have a little bit more color on why federal agents were searching Representative Ilhan Omar's Washington, D.C. home. According to the Washington Post, federal authorities searched the D.C. home of Representative Ilhan Omar on Monday morning. Homeland Security Investigations, the investigative arm of the Department of Homeland Security, executed the search. The DOJ confirmed it secured a court-authorized warrant for a law enforcement action Monday morning, but the agency did not name Omar or confirm what the investigation search was connected to. She was born in Somalia. She fled the country's civil war with her family when she was a young girl and spent four years in a Kenyan refugee camp and then immigrated to the U.S. at the age of 12 in 1995. She was naturalized in 2000 and was elected to Congress in 2018. The investigation is being hilariously labeled World War XI internally. Obviously, a reference to the fact that she once referred to World War II as World War XI. So, according to the New York Post, the big picture here is that a federal judge in Washington, D.C. signed off on a search warrant. That means there's probable cause that a federal crime was committed, and there would be evidence of that crime in the area to be searched, which in this case was Representative Omar's home, according to former Assistant U.S. Attorney Jonathan Fahey. One source who requested anonymity suggested it might relate to long-standing unverified claims that Omar misrepresented her age to get citizenship, that she claimed that she was imported to the United States as a minor, but in reality, she was an adult, which means she would need to get her own individual citizenship granted as opposed to entering as a minor. It's also possible that her father shouldn't have been allowed in in the first place. In 2019, a concerned citizen and Minnesota local named A.J. Kern called attention to Omar actually being 18 or 19 in 2000. If she was older than 17 at the time, she would have been ineligible for citizenship via the parental route. And then, Omar's official birth year on the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library's website, was revised from 1981 to 1982. So, the question would be if she continued to use fake dates on her passport renewals or bank loan applications or all of the rest. So, I'm sure we'll find out what's going on here. It is also possible that they're investigating whether her parents committed some form of naturalization fraud. Because, as the Washington Examiner has pointed out, in 1995, when her family was admitted to the United States, it turns out that a lot of her relatives held government jobs in Somalia, under the Siad Barre Socialist regime, which was responsible for a wide variety of human rights abuses. Nur al-Hamar Mohammed, the Congresswoman's father, was a senior officer in the Somali National Army, which was commanded by Barre. After obtaining a military education in Soviet Russia, the elder Omar rose to the rank of colonel and played a significant role leading a regiment in the Somali-Ethiopian War of the late 1970s, according to an obituary remembering Omar's father. He was recognized for his role in the war launched by Barre. And I'll see you next time. Eventually, Barre, his regime ended in 1991. The army was disbanded. So it is true that the INA bars an alien from receiving asylum if it's determined that an applicant ordered, incited, assisted, or otherwise participated in the persecution of any person on account of race, religion, nationality, membership, and a particular social group or political opinion. So, you know, it's possible that that's what they're investigating also. So here's the deal, okay? Here's the deal. If she is here, not legally, if she did not do the legal thing, then we ought to do the same analysis I've suggested for literally every dreamer and people who came here as children or people who have been here for a long time. We should determine whether she is a net asset to the United States or not. I would suggest she clearly is not, given the fact that she has spent her time promoting actual terrorists. She literally wrote a letter to a judge in Minnesota asking for mercy for a guy who tried to join ISIS, given the fact that she despises the country. You know, if she's not here legally, then she can leave. She can be swiftly, but now she's claiming, of course, that this is political intimidation. She's not going to be silenced or whatever. Okay, listen, if there's a legal violation, then she will reap the consequences of it. If not, then not. President Trump, for his part, is trying to keep arm's length from all of this. Here with President Trump on it.
Speaker 15Well, I understand they're looking at her very carefully. I've always found her to be totally crooked, personally, but that has nothing to do with me. I think she's a terrible person, just a complainer. She comes from a country that is a non-country. And then she comes over here and she complains about our Constitution. I think she's a terrible person, but that's really up to the DOJ. I have nothing to do with it.
Speaker 1That is a proper statement from the President. He is right. She is, in fact, a terrible person, and it is up to the DOJ. Zoran Mamdani, of course, is now complaining. He doesn't belong in the country either. I mean, the reality that his parents were also given citizenship is a blot. He says, This morning, the federal government turned the full force of the Department of Homeland Security against a sitting member of Congress for the offense of disagreeing with the White House. Well, is that really what happened? The path to citizenship should not be weaponized against anyone, including Representative Ilhan Omar, a naturalized American, who swore an oath to this country, the same one I took. Yeah, that oath means nothing. Nothing. It is hard to imagine two people more disloyal to the United States than Zoran Mamdani and Ilhan Omar. Meanwhile, by the way, there are open questions still out there about Ilhan Omar allegedly marrying her brother in order to achieve some form of status for him to enter the country. It's a picture of a marriage certificate. between Ilhan Abdullahi Omar and Ahmed Noor Saeed Elmi. That would be her brother. And again, the allegation is that she basically committed immigration fraud on behalf of her brother. That wouldn't end with deportation, it would end with jail time. So again, these are pretty terrible people we let into our country. And if there are legal means for them to exit our country, then I'm all for it. Meanwhile, speaking of terrible people who shouldn't be in our country, Abdul El-Sayed continues to run a very competitive race in Michigan. Now, Barack Obama, who agrees with El-Sayed on everything. Okay, can we dispense with this nonsense that Obama is somehow in tangential disagreement with El-Sayed? He agrees with El-Sayed about everything. He always has. He just hid it. In the same way that Barack Obama once claimed to be in favor of traditional marriage, but was lying, when Barack Obama somehow claimed that he was moderate on America or claimed that he was not a sympathizer with radical Islam, he was lying. It's not true. He agrees with the same exact worldview. As El-Sayed. He and El-Sayed are on exactly the same page. America is the great oppressor in the world. It is America's fault that there is terrorism all over the world. It is America and imperialism that is responsible for suffering in the third world. He and Abdul El-Sayed have always been on the same page. So now Obama's cutting ads for him, of course. And he's going to be stumping for him in October 24th rally.
Speaker 16250 years ago, America was founded on a simple idea. This country belongs to all of us. Not just the wealthy. Not just the well-connected. Everyone. Today, that idea is under attack. And Michigan is where we fight back. That's why I'm asking you to support Abdul El-Sayed for the United States Senate. Abdul's a doctor, and he's taken on special interests to fight for good jobs, better health care, and lower costs. Abdul has never taken corporate money. He understands that health care is a human right. Except for his friends. And he thinks we should invest. Instead of wasting money on endless wars.
Speaker 1Again, it's just nonsense. And again, he's hiding the ball. Because obviously what Abdul El-Sayed, not endless wars. Abdul El-Sayed is pro-terrorism. He has always been. He is a charter fellow traveler with the Muslim Brotherhood. That is what he is. And the attempt to portray him as anything but is truly an insane thing. It's truly insane. It's now being pushed, by the way, by Megyn Kelly. Megyn Kelly has joined right on that Tucker Carlson bandwagon. So Tucker Carlson has been stumping for El-Sayed. Because here's the rule for Tucker. And then Megyn always follows along. Because Megyn's rule in life is that if there is a parade happening anywhere on Earth, she will arrive, jump in front of it, and start waving a baton. So Tucker Carlson is leading the anti-Israel parade. All you have to do is be anti-Israel, preferably anti-Semitic. And Tucker Carlson will find an excuse to support you from Graham Plattner to Abdul El-Sayed. Well, now Megyn's jumping online here.
Speaker 17I mean, that's one of the reasons El-Sayed is doing so well. It's because he is very firmly against the United States getting involved in this. He doesn't want to be involved in any more of Israel's conflicts. And Mike Rogers is more your typical Republican neocon. As you guys know, there's a large portion of the Republican base now that is not neocony and is tired of foreign wars and really wants the president to be laser-focused on domestic issues. Not Israel, not Iran, not the Middle East, and certainly not another war.
Speaker 1It is amazing to me that here she is ripping on the Republican candidate in Michigan. Because that Republican. The Republican candidate is anti-Iran and also anti-Hizbollah and anti-Hamas. And she's siding with the radical Muslim who sides with Hizbollah and Hamas specifically because he does. I love hiding this behind. Oh, he just doesn't want us to be involved in any foreign wars. Oh, that's. Yes, I'm sure Abdul El-Sayed is deeply. I'm sure that's what he's worried about. By the way, it's not even true. I noticed that Abdul El-Sayed is very much for funding of Ukraine. So she doesn't say that. So yeah, there's that. But again, all that it comes down. For so many of these people is if you buy into the very online narrative, then you jump behind Abdul El-Sayed, which is really pathetic. Truly, truly, truly pathetic stuff. By the way, Abdul El-Sayed, as I say, he is a fellow traveler with the Muslim Brotherhood. That's who he is. His sister literally tweeted in 2012 about how the family was associated with the Muslim Brotherhood. And then tweeted, quote, That's his sister. And by the way, this is about the time that. Abdul El-Sayed was signing on to a letter calling on Mohamed Morsi, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, to crack down on dissidents, which was also about the same time that the American reporter Lara Logan was being sexually assaulted by Muslim Brotherhood members in Egypt in 2011.
Speaker 18Our camera battery went down. And we had to stop for a moment. And suddenly Baha looks at me and says, we've got to get out of here. Baha is not happy here. He's Egyptian. He speaks Arabic. And he can hear what the crowd is saying. Yeah. He understands what no one else in the crew understands. That's right. I thought, not only am I going to die here, but it's going to be just a torturous death that's going to go on forever and ever and ever.
Speaker 1So here we have it. The so-called woke right and the far left Obamaites locking arms because the only thing that matters is how much you hate Israel, apparently. That is the only thing in the end that really matters. Meanwhile, we will see. I am skeptical that El-Sayed is in as much of a durable, lead as people seem to think he is. Democrats for Mike Rogers cut some ads featuring black Michiganders. Apparently in the polling data, he's not doing that well among black Michiganders. He's just hoping to turn out Dearborn.
Speaker 14Abdul El-Sayed is for Palestine, but Mike Rogers is for Michigan. Abdul El-Sayed is a puppet. Well, there's strength somewhere. I think Abdul cares more about the West Bank than West Detroit. I feel like he cares about Palestine more than Michigan. We need someone who is speaking for us first. I'm a lifelong Detroiter.
Speaker 11I'm passionate about education. I voted for Barack Obama, but this year I'm voting for Mike Rogers.
Speaker 1Abdul is way too arrogant and way too extreme. He will kill our jobs and make our communities less safe. Hey, again, it'll be interesting to see what happens in that particular race. OK, meanwhile, in White House news. Now the White House is announcing that they are thinking about firing Kimberly Guilfoyle. Kimberly Guilfoyle, of course, was the paramour of Don Jr. before. He broke up with her and got married. She's also the former spouse of Gavin Newsom. So she's going to have a hell of a memoir. Well, basically, the scandal surrounding Kimberly Guilfoyle, who's made ambassador to Greece because she was basically as a as a person tangentially connected with the Trump kingdom. She was given a post far, far away in Greece. And there she began to allegedly sell access, according to The Wall Street Journal. For months, Guilfoyle had been chatting with Eric Dieter, a former congressional candidate in Kentucky. Seeking her help in getting the attention of the new Trump administration on some personal tax and legal issues and had promised payments of as much as a million dollars if she was successful. Dieter sent her a photo of a printed memo addressed to her, quote, I paid you three hundred thousand dollars over the years. As of this memo, I've not received one favor. I'm not naive or a sucker. I need results. In response, she told Dieter to stop papering all these things. It's really dangerous. Just call me on signal, she wrote. I wrote a very nice message, told him how important it was that you're close to me and Don. Also, very privately, she continued, if you write an email or text about, I'm going to kill you. Because I love you, but you're so out of control. That afternoon, she texted an update. Boom. A week later, on July 3rd, she placed two missed calls to Dieters' phone and sent him instructions on how to wire money to an American Express account. And he wrote back, you're needing $100,000 urgent. Unfortunately, it's not going to work. I can't do this without getting a divorce. So that doesn't look great. So when she was preparing for her congressional hearing to become U.S. ambassador, that's when she asked for the $100,000 in a way that would not leave a paper trail. Yeah, not great, Bob. Not great at all. Like, at all. So the brand new White House press secretary, Katie Zachariah, had her opening debut today, and she confirmed the administration has asked Guilfoyle to resign. We have asked Ambassador Guilfoyle to resign. She has been a wonderful asset to the team, and we wish her well. Well, unfortunately, I think this is only the beginning. Because, yes, Guilfoyle should resign. But if you think that Democrats aren't going to open every can of worms inside the Trump administration, and drag every single person associated with the administration through the corruption mud, get ready, it's coming. Get ready, it's coming. Some of it will be deserved, by the way. But that is what comes next. Pretty obviously. All righty, folks. Coming up, we are going to get into some economic news.
