You've got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a turning point USA college chapter. Go start a turning point you would say high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade.

All right. Welcome, everybody. It is Monday, August 10th, 2026. Blake's holding it down in the Y-ReFi studios. How are we doing, Blake? I'm doing great. I think we're coming to the cosmic realization, Andrew, that it is my mic flag now. I think I have possessed this flag more days in the last month than you have. And I don't think that's going to be changing this week. So I'm the captain now. That's what Blake says. Well, listen, Blake, I. Entirely disagree. It is my Mike Flaggo. Be there to reclaim it in due time. Nevertheless, we have a show to do about much of the news that has been happening. And I would be remiss if we did not be honest with this audience about what we are facing in this current moment. Now, if you asked me, is it okay to vote Democrat? I would tell you very, very clearly, absolutely not. I don't know what's gotten into people across the podcast sphere, the internet sphere. There is a lot of people that will look you straight in the face, that you have known to be conservatives for many years that will tell you, actually, we need to vote Democrat. We need to burn this down and we need to usher in an era of post left and right politics. That's an old paradigm, bro. Well, that's not true. If you vote Democrat, they will let in 3 to 5 million third worlders a year illegally. And they will do it happily. They will smile to your face. They will lie to you about why they are doing it. It's even happening at all. They will tell you the border is secure. And they will overrun this country. For that issue alone. You should never vote Democrat again. There are myriad issues of which you could put in that category. But for that issue alone, you do not want America to be invaded again by third worlders. If you have kids, grandkids, you do not want to vote Democrat. But if our pitch is only going to be that voting Democrat is the least worst choice or that is the most worst choice and that voting Republican is the least worst choice. then that is not an inspiring message to about 50% of the country. Because you got 25% hardened on this side, 25% hardened on that side. And then you've got about the mushy middle, the normies, as we sometimes call them. And that's not a pejorative, by the way. People should not be so fixated on politics. The politics of this country should run itself and should be something you could sort of put in the background and depend upon that it will be handled professionally in an adult manner. with common sense what's in the best interest of the country we are not in that era and so there are a lot of people fixated on politics and they're just getting bad vibes and i will repeat myself to i'm blue in the face that i think it goes back to the way epstein was handled for a lot of people that felt like a psychic break a betrayal of trust, of transparency, whether or not the admin knew that. I don't think they understood that. But it was a break, okay? And you can get mad at me in the emails if you want, that we're playing into the hoax. I'm just telling you the politics of it, folks. Now, do I think Trump did anything wrong? No, of course. But I think...
that it could have been handled better. Then you get into Iran. A lot of people believe that President Trump said no new wars. It's not exactly what he said. He was very consistent on Iran. Nevertheless, the Iran conflict, you go back to Midnight Hammer, but then you get into the spring and the ongoing conflict with Iran. It's been a drag, okay? It's been a drag. And unfortunately, this has resulted in some very negative polling, and we have to be honest about it. We have to offer something better than we're just not as bad as the other guys. And I think Blake would agree. Blake, I'm going to play this clip and then I'm going to have your reaction on the other side. And you can sort of analyze how we got here. Stop 15. What is going on, Mr. Berman? What's going on is simple. Is the MAGA movement was built. among the working class, non-college Americans, and take a look at this trend line that we're looking at the data. Here we go. Okay, net favorability rating, the MAGA movement, non-college. Back in October of 2024, look at that. On the plus side of ledger, positive, plus six points. Down we go into the Atlantic Ocean. Now, look at this movement. Now, minus 22 points. That is a shift Johnny B of 28 points away from... The MAGA movement away with non-college Americans. So the bottom line is, it's the group at which the Trump movement was built upon. They are shifting away and saying, we don't like MAGA anymore. Well, it's as he says, non-college Americans, you have to think about what that represents. That represents blue-collar working class people, like the union voters who swung towards Trump. It represents a lot of rural voters. I think a lot about... If you've ever heard of it, it's called the Driftless Area. It's kind of the border area, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Western Illinois, kind of northern Mississippi River area. And those are counties that are rural, lightly populated, but historically voted pretty blue. They voted for Obama, for example. They helped make Iowa a blue state under Obama. And they swung really dramatically, aggressively. towards Donald Trump. That is what we do. When we talk about Donald Trump remaking American politics, it's not just about issues, it's about coalitions that Donald Trump massively boosted the GOP with lower education voters, with lower income voters, while at the same time he was shedding some of the higher educated, higher income voters who had more globalist points of view, who didn't care for his style of politics. That was the Trump realignment, Andrew. And that's what enabled him to win states. No Republican had won in decades. That is how he's able to win. Wisconsin, win Michigan, win Pennsylvania, win back Nevada after it had gone blue for several elections. And as you say, we need to be paying attention if the polls say that that is swinging the other way. They are... True swing voters, they're the kind of people you can win back, but we should not ignore this fact. I think there's a lot of people who will prefer to look at any poll that is bad and say that the poll is fake, to say that the poll has a bad sample or whatever. And I think you and I know and Charlie would know you have to pay attention to these sorts of things. Even if the poll is exaggerated, it's getting at something real. And I think what we've seen play out is a lot of people.
Probably were innately a little bit. wary of going for Donald Trump and going for the Republicans again in 2024, but Charlie and others made a good pitch on affordability, on the border, on Biden being a complete disaster, on no wars, and in some cases on Epstein. And they feel like they got burned on at least some of those issues. And it's going to be a lift to get them to trust us again. And it's not something that you can just win over with rhetoric. It's something where you... You need to have real wins to offer them. We can't just give them a lecture. Well, and I do believe that we have real wins. So I do believe that part of it is messaging, right? And this goes back to the issue of the burrito, the infamous burrito now. My whole point was not that this is that a $20 burrito is even the norm. I'm not even saying that. I'm saying in the minds of voters, they think it costs $20. All right. They think the average, if a college kid is paying $17 for a burrito with, you know, he basically is thinking that's a $20 burrito, right? And to ignore the feelings and the anxieties of your voters, I think is political malfeasance. But the point is that we have to be offering a positive vision. And I think we've got away from that. And we need to be messaging on that. And we need to declare our wins loudly and proudly. The chief among them obviously is the border. But there's myriad other wins. There's multiple other areas of the country and of the economy that we could genuinely point to as being hugely successful. And we need to do that. All right. So, Blake, it's not just about the approval of working class voters when it comes to MAGA. This is hitting Trump himself now. SOT 16. So how about what the same group is saying about Donald Trump specifically? Yeah, okay. So you know what? The idea being, okay, maybe they've soured on MAGA, but they haven't soured on me, Donald Trump might be saying. Ain't the truth. Take a look here. Okay. Non-college voters on Trump. Hello. Okay. In the 2024 election, he won him by 13 points, right? That was the reason he won among non-college voters, a very strong performance amongst them. And that, of course, was the reason he was able to win because college voters were against him. But look at this now. Minus 19 points. Minus 19 points. We're talking about an even bigger shift here. We're talking about, what is this? This is a 32-point shift away from the president of the United States when it comes to a... is key core political group. I am not blackpilling. There is never a black pill. Never allowed. Never allowed. But if you don't look at that and you don't say to yourself, five alarm fire, then you're crazy. Okay, you've got your head stuck in the sand. We have to look at that and say the very group of people that we came to rely on that it was like,
I mean, those people were going to walk on broken glass and hot coals to go vote for Donald Trump. When you see a divergence like that, something incredibly wrong has happened. Something incredibly bad has happened. Okay. And why it gets worse, and we have to be honest about this because it's August 10th. We got November coming up in just months now. is that it's going to impact congressional candidates who we're going to have two of them on in the next segment because it's that important. We've got to get behind these people. And before I play this clip, let me just say all of America and the West, Western civilization hinges on the fact that conservative state power. I hate to say it to you that much. There's no pressure here, folks. But this is how bad it is. And we've got to change something. We've got to change our messaging. It's not 17. Choice for the House, non-college voters. 2024 election. Look at this. Republicans plus 13 points. Now Democrats, Democrats actually lead among non-college voters in an average of polls. It's just a point. But you know what when it comes to a point and given how well the Democrats are doing among college voters, these are the types of numbers in which blue waves are built. That's not all the vote, by the way. This is, again, just working class voters. Trump's bedrock constituency, the most foundational element of that constituency. I mean, if you have a college degree, you're like so far blue, it's beyond crazy. That's why college is a scam. Yet another reason a lot of people educated beyond their intelligence. This is non-college educated working class voters here, Blake. So the question is, what do we do about it? Now, I'll throw it to you, Blake. What would you like to see from a messaging standpoint and from a policy standpoint in the next couple of months that can turn hopefully some of this around? Well, I think we've discussed this a lot. I think it's pretty likely, at this point, the biggest thing he could do to turn around the tide is probably he has to find a way to. credibly end the conflict in Iran. I think you and I both saw that was a big point where things started to go south with a lot of people. And it's not so much whether the war is going well or not. And it's not even whether Donald Trump himself campaigned on no new wars. I know a lot of people who touted President Trump said that, but Trump himself was more measured in what he said. Nevertheless, I think it's very clear a lot of people had the perception. That was a reason to vote for Trump, that he had the credibility of being the guy who didn't want more new wars. And when the Iran war broke out, a lot of people felt super burned about that. And... We're only a few months out from the election at this point. We can maybe talk about economic messaging in a better way, but that stuff is sticky. It moves slowly. And I think the only thing where you can get like a big flash headline that would be positive in winning these people over is...
getting the Iran War credibly towards a permanent resolution and saying, I took care of this. It's not a thing you're going to have to worry about for the next two years. Beyond that, messaging, I think we've talked, if Congress could come out and say, hey, we just passed a bill to block more stock trading and insider dealing by members of Congress, we just passed some sort of. Anti-corruption measures, stuff like that. That could be a good headline and the Save Act. Save Act is not necessarily going to be every swing voter, but the people who are disapproving because they're base voters who feel let down, they would be won over by that. Yeah, you've got to address base concerns because we have a base fatigue issue, right? The base enthusiasm issue. We've got to give them a reason to be enthusiastic again. By the way, breaking news this morning. which I think is totally red meat. And people laugh at the expression red meat. I love red meat. Give us more. We need to feast on red meat right now. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the Trump administration has revoked 175,000 visas since President Trump took office, including visas held by foreign nationals, accused of crimes such as fraud and sexual abuse, as well as people who celebrated the death of Charlie Kirk. So we have foreigners coming in here celebrating Charlie's assassination. Marco Rubio emphasized that a visa is permission to enter the United States, not a constitutional right nor a right to stay here. Boom, get them the heck out. By the way, H-1Bs are all but gone. Just so you're aware, the Trump administration has basically ended H-1Bs. Now, if you let a Democrat back in office, guess what's going to happen to those H-1Bs? We're going to shoot right back up again. Yeah, Andrew. So the wins are there. Go ahead. I just think it's so worth emphasizing that that people will say, oh, I'm going to go for a Democrat because they're better on affordability or whatever. And the number one thing you have to emphasize this. It doesn't really matter what Democrats are for domestically because they are still all in on abolish the West, commit national suicide. They're worse on that than ever. They're worse on that in every country. They're not moderating one inch. It basically doesn't matter what their other views are. If you're struggling with cravings, bloating, and stubborn weight gain, your gut health is probably playing a bigger role than you think. A damaged microbiome can affect everything from inflammation and digestion to cravings and weight gain. And with today's processed foods and environmental toxin, a lot of people's digestive health is taking a big major hit, which is why taking care of your gut health may be more important now than ever before. That's where a fermented food called kimchi can make a real difference. Kimchi is naturally rich in over 900 probiotic strains that help support gut bacteria. Because when your gut bacteria are properly supported, your body is better able to process food efficiently. Regulate cravings and support digestion, even maintain a healthier metabolism overall. Studies show that eating kimchi can reduce your body fat by 31.8%. But supporting your gut microbiome takes consistency, and most people aren't eating kimchi every day because of the taste, the smell, the hassle that comes with getting it. That's why Bright Core created kimchi 1, delivering the benefits of fermented kimchi in a convenient capsule form to help restore your gut's natural balance every day. Because when your body is functioning properly from the inside out, everything else becomes easier.

This is a wide open race down there in Florida's 19th. This is the seat that Byron Donalds's left to run for governor. And now John Strand is up there. He's the turning point action endorsed candidate in Florida's 19th, southwest corner of the state, really important territory. John, welcome back to the show. Tell us, how's the race going and what is the timing? When is the primary happening? Andrew, it's always amazing to be with you. Thank you, Blake. You guys are rocking it. And yeah, voting starts yesterday, or actually Saturday. Early voting is happening as we speak. So you guys can make a real difference in this race simply by talking about it, telling your friends, get out the vote. That applies to every primary, but in Florida, it's hot and heavy right now. It is a wide open race with 10 Republicans all vying for Byron Donalds's seat. Only one of them qualified with voter signatures, and that is the turning point endorsed candidate, myself John Strand. We're very honored by that support from Patriots all across Florida and the nation and really excited to be the outsider, independent America First Patriot candidate that's really fighting for what really matters, you know, not political rhetoric or talking points, but really restoring courage, common sense, and Judeo-Christian values. back into government so that we can finally end the fraud, waste, and abuse that is bankrupt in a nation, both morally and financially, and then try to actually resurrect a government that would deliver what Americans demand, which is security, affordability, and accountability. So it's very straightforward common sense. It is a wild race in Florida, but you can make a difference at john strand.com. Go there and sign up to support us and share the word that we got to vote for change, vote for courage. Vote John Strand Patriot for Congress. Yeah. And I mean, John, I just, you're one of those guys that if you win this primary, I have zero doubt that you're going to do the right thing when you get to D.C. So if you are somebody out there that is. Yeah, that it's worried that when you send these guys off to D.C., they just turn their back on you. No, John is going to be a guy that's going to, you know, Blake mentioned stop, you know, these insider trading deals and these, you know, the, you know, ban stocks trading, insider trading for Congress. Okay. John's a guy that will do that because he's not driven by money. John's a guy that's going to work to, you know, any common sense base initiative, pass the Save America Act.
All this stuff. He's not going to be trying to import more foreigners into this country. So if you're nervous about sending people to D.C. that betray you, you do not have to be worried about that with John. John, I will tell you, your story is amazing. So why don't you just give the biography one more time for people who are still getting to know you? Absolutely. So my dad served in the U.S. Navy. He was actually stationed in Florida where my brother was born in Pennsylvania, where my sister was born in California, where I was born. I was living and working as an actor and writer when COVID came crashing down around all of us. I led a freedom rally that President Trump tweeted because we were bringing tens of thousands to Los Angeles of all places to push back against lockdowns and support the MAGA movement. I became the creative director for America's frontline doctors to travel the nation, including speaking in D.C. on January 6th when I was then caught up in the Fedurrection. arrested, charged with a 20-year felony, even though I did nothing wrong, and given a golden parachute plea deal of a single misdemeanor to make it all go away. But that was a false confession and a weapon against President Trump and his supporters and I refused to portray my fellow Americans. I took a 20-year felony on the chin, Andrew, as you know, praying for God to... bring about a just result, and I won at the Supreme Court and then had all five charges vacated with prejudice. So legally exonerated within the legal system, fighting on the ground ever since to support President Trump and the Restoration of America. I did write a book in a prison cell about this extraordinary story. It's on the screen behind me called Patriot Plee. It's not just my story, though. This book will change your life, I promise, if you read it. And it is a manifesto. to the nation to remind us, what is America? Who are we as Americans? And are we going to make the choice that is in front of us? We are at a crossroads in this nation. 2026 is not the midterms. It's the final countdown to decide if we're going to engage in our government and realize that 2026 is our generations 1776. This is not hyperbole or rhetoric. We are in a revolutionary moment. Charlie knew this well, and he has given us such an incredible example. But really, it comes. down to the choice that each and every one of us can and must make what am I going to do today with the situation that God has put me in and with the promise that God has given me if we turn to the Lord, if we seek and pray his face. Pray towards his face and seek his name. He will hear from heaven and heal our land. That is the promise that we're working and praying towards. You can help us at john strand.com this week, as early voting is happening now. But no matter where you live and what you do, give it to the Lord, be serious about it and sober-minded. And God can work miracles through your life. He certainly has through mine. Amen, John. I want to get just your vibe on the ground. You're talking to voters constantly. We are in a different political moment than we were in 2024, obviously. You know, there is some headwinds, right? And there is some enthusiasm issue with the base. What are you seeing? And when you talk to voters, what are they begging for more? Give us that insight on the ground. I would say they're begging for the things you would expect them to be calling and demanding common sense, driving out the corruption. They want to have an affordable...
opportunity to actually buy a home, invest in the American dream, the things that are always an issue. But above and beyond that, I think they're really sick and tired of the propaganda and the grift and just the sense like you mentioned that we send these people to Washington and they just continually betray us or fade into the background. But nothing. Nothing significant ever actually changes. So I think they really do want change and courage. They want integrity. Gen Z and the younger generation that I am living in, we are dying for honesty and authenticity. That's what they're demanding on the ground here in Southwest Florida. Like say what you mean and mean what you say. It's not exactly complicated, right? But it's just so rare to actually have people who believe in something, certainly that believe in something good and sensible. actually walk the walk and fight for it, especially if it costs them personally. That's the heart and the theme of Patriot Plea, the story that I only wrote in a prison cell but lived in my life for years and that I'm bringing to this campaign. But it's much more than just me or a campaign. This, like I said, it's a crossroads moment in America. The voters on the ground can feel and sense that. And they want... sincerity, authenticity, and I think they want bravery. They want it in themselves and they want to see it reflected in their leadership. And I think that's what Charlie really inspired all of us to do and to believe that all of us are capable of being brave, of being bold, of understanding what's true and then fighting for it. And also, of course, Charlie told us the most amazing thing that he ever said that he wanted to be remembered for courage for his faith in the gospel of Jesus Christ and the truth of the Bible as our foundation. And I read through the Founding Fathers carefully as I wrote this book, you'll find a lot of that material. But they were so clear-eyed about the objective reality of truth that it comes from God. Our rights come from God and not the government. That's why they're unalienable. And the proper role of government is very limited to fit within the Constitution. and to protect our rights from infringement, not to help us, you know, a great actor and then statesman from California. Ronald Reagan reminded us the most terrifying words in the English language. Nine most terrifying words are, I'm from the government and I'm here to help. So we need to remember what America is really about, what the Constitution is for. And we need to fight to restore those foundations. And I think that foundational courage and truth is what people are looking for. You're right. This is Christendom. We're fighting for Christendom on some level. Yeah, go ahead, Blake. We are. So, John, you're correct. I think voters, they want authenticity. They want bravery. Before you came on. we were discussing what could Republicans who have the House right now be doing to win people's trust? And we are the ones in power right now. If there is a lot of frustration, that is somewhat on our faction. Let's say you were in the House right now. What do you think you might be fighting for trying to help ram through to restore that trust from voters to make them feel like Washington has changed in a positive direction?
Excellent question, Blake. Number one without a doubt is the Save America Act. And I think the fact that it's bottled up in the Senate, they're claiming they need 60 votes, which is a lie. That's just ridiculous. We know they can pass it with 50 votes and the vice president if they simply... do their job, but they're not doing their job because they just can't be bothered. And that alone tells everyone, this system is rigged. It's a farce. They don't give a rat's tail end about us as people and as Americans. How can anyone buy into this? So in Congress, I would be I would be absolutely lambasting them and demanding no more excuses get it done now because the whole thing is sham if we don't have legitimate elections. And the second thing I would do, Blake, is I would be proposing, as I am, the 2020 Sovereignty Act, 20 years of zero immigration. Read my lips, no immigration, lock down the borders and 20 million deportations accelerated over five years or four years. I want to see five million per year because we have to protect. our people and build up the middle class. People don't realize, Blake, that from 1924 to 64, we had an immigration moratorium and middle class exploded so we can return to that principle of protecting our people and actually lock down the country as far as our sovereignty. And I think that's what people want to see. John Strand, you had me at hello with that 20 years of sovereignty. A? Men, I was clapping. I hope you heard it. Get this man into Congress, people. Please support him. Go to john strand.com, right. Do I get the URL? It was just you got it. John strand.com. All right. All right. Get this guy into Washington. John, God bless you, my friend. And Godspeed next Tuesday. And early voting's already started. So get behind this man. God bless you. We'll talk to you soon on when you win this thing. Talk to you soon. God bless. We have Michael Alfonso on now. So we had him last week. His primary, I believe, is tomorrow. He is like... exactly what he's straight out of central casting gen z fighter enthusiastic the answer to so much of what we are facing right now is a new generation of leaders that are willing to be bold and courageous michael welcome back to the show my friend uh blake's got a really good question for you but just first give us the landscape and the timing and what you're up against how's it looking all the stuff with your race You know, it's really exciting. The election is tomorrow. You know, it's a low turnout primaries, so really anything can happen. So it depends on whose people show up to vote. So I'm really excited. I think our people are really energized and they're excited to have someone who's actually going to support the president's agenda, not just in an election year, but all the time and actually fight for the American people. And that's what I'm going to do.
All right. Well, we're very glad to have you back. We were discussing at the top of the show, we were talking about headwinds that we're facing, that there are polls that show Gen Z is a lot more frustrated with the president than they were in 2024. Non-college voters are a lot more frustrated about the MAGA movement, as they call it. And we were discussing what? can we do to turn this around the next few months? And we ask this to our last guest as well. So you're running to be in the house. Let's say you were in the house right now. If people are frustrated, we control the government. We have to own that to some extent. What should Congress be doing right now, you think, that would be showing that the Republican Party, the conservative movement, the MAGA movement are fighting for them, are delivering on their promises and that they should get another term running the country? Yeah, Republicans have always had a messaging problem. They don't talk about the things that matter to voters. If they want to win young people, it's actually the same as winning the working class, the middle class. Talk about the working family's tax cuts. Americans, Wisconsinites, right here in my state, are seeing $10,000 a year more on their take-home pay. They're getting $3,000 a year more. back on their taxes. President Trump is the only person out there who's actually fighting for the working class. And I'll tell you what, it's not these Silver Spoon Socialists who are running in Wisconsin again telling you, oh, we'll just give you free stuff. Again, the only thing that the free stuff lie does is make everyone equitable in their levels of suffering. Yeah, that's right. Nothing's free either, by the way. You know, El-Sayed was just on the record saying, yeah, guess what? If you want this free health care for everybody, it's not going to be free at all, your taxes are going up for middle class people. So it's, you know. There is nothing free. As Margaret Thatcher said, you eventually run out of other people's money. That is the case here. And by the way, it causes stagnation, economic malaise, shortages. You usually have a drop-off, by the way, when you're talking about health care and just the quality of health care. Let's talk about Gen Z, though, specifically, right? Gen Z specifically, when you're out there, Michael Alfonso, and you're talking to young voters, you're talking to working class voters. What are they begging for you? I asked the same question to the last. the last guest, who's running for Congress as well. What are you hearing from voters? You know, honestly, they just want to see an elected official who will actually have to live with the consequences of their decisions. I mean, we got Mitch McConnell in office who probably is already dead. making decisions. It's ridiculous. The idea that we're going to have people running this country who don't deal with the consequences, the thing about being 26, whatever I decide, however I vote, I'm going to have to deal with it, and my daughter is also going to have to deal with it. And I care about the working class of America. I don't care about the...
upper crusts. I want to make sure that middle America is not being hollowed out and mortgaged off to these coastal elites anymore. I think that's great. I mean, listen, when you have kids, you have skin in the game like never before, okay? You know, we talk about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's freezing her eggs, like, and she's Miss Working Class family representative. No, you just simply do not understand in the same way you will when you have kids, okay? And I mean, when we talk to young people, they, you know, everybody, Made a big deal about this $20 burrito debate last week. It was like all over the place. But the point is we have to acknowledge the fact that things do feel hard right now for a lot of people. And you had this K-shaped economy thanks to COVID and unlimited money printing. But things are getting better. We are seeing movement in the right direction. We had Scott Bessent on last week. Do you know that wages are rising faster than inflation for the lowest 25 percentile, right, in the economy, the wage earners, the salary workers. They're rising faster than inflation for the middle class earners, right? So a little bit higher up. That's good movement. If you tack those on. quarter after quarter, quarter after quarter, you will start having the fruits of these economic policies, economic nationalism will actually take effect and people will start feeling it. We've got to stay the course. Right now, DSA is promising a bunch of free stuff. It's not going to work. Free stuff doesn't work. You run out of it. Finally, your message to those people that are being lured to DSA, you have a Cuban descent. That's part of your story. What would your warning be to them? My warning would be the exact same one that my grandfather told me. I had a country to run to. You don't. This is the last bastion of freedom. Where are we going to go? Canada, it's even worse. Mexico, it's even worse. America is the last chance for Christian freedom. And we need to protect it down to the absolute last person. I totally agree. We have this clip from JD Vance, I want to pull if we have it. But it's talking about economic nationalism. And it's... uh i don't see it on the but the point is if we stay the course here michael this is this is the route out of this charlie used to say we have maga or we have Zohran Mamdani the country is faced with a fork in the road right now and you have these revolutionary passions rising up and we have to okay so is it yeah clip eight i think JD Vance does a great job explaining i'll let him do it clip eight A lot of Americans look at this rising tide of socialism and say, how did we get here? We got here by 40 years of bipartisan leaders, selling our industrial base to foreign countries, allowing low-wage immigrants to come in and compete with Americans for jobs. By destroying the foundation of the middle class, that's how you got socialism. How you fix that problem is by doubling down on Donald Trump's economic nationalism, not going back to the way we've done things for the past four years. It's failed everywhere. It's failed everywhere.
it's tried in it always leads to socialism it always leads exactly where we are the only way to get out of it is to double down on the economics of the past 18 months amen all right michael Last 30 seconds to you, give us the timing of the race and what do people do to get involved? Yeah, the race is tomorrow, so polls are open until 8 p.m. Central time. We need every single person to get out and vote. I know young people can feel like their vote doesn't matter, but if you don't go out and vote, you have nothing to complain about. You have a chance to make a difference right now. So go to alfonso4wisconsin.com. You can sign up for any informational letters, but we need your vote tomorrow. Amen. We need Gen Z energy in there. And by the way, you can black pill all you want, but there's people working and building. Those are the people you can trust. They're fighting for the future. That's Michael Alfonso in Wisconsin. God bless you, brother. We got your back and we look forward to seeing you victorious tomorrow. Hi, folks. Andrew Colvette here. I'd like to tell you about my friends over at Y-Refi.

Just go to whyrefi.com and tell them your friend Andrews sent you. We have a great guest in store for you, and that is, of course, Christopher Rufo. We tried to do this last week, but I believe we're in good shape today. Chris does so much stuff, including work with the City Journal and Manhattan Institute, Hillsdale College. He's got Rufo and Lomez, which is a great show. You guys should be checking out. We love both those guys. And I think they're really important right now, especially in this era. So without further ado, Chris, welcome back. Christopher Rufo. The man, the myth, the legend. He is there. All right, Chris, so the original inspiration for having you on was you had this great, just very common sense reaction to burrito gate, which was, I just felt it was, it was very, how do I say? It was refreshing. Because you said this, 151. You said, crazy to see free market conservatives tell anxious young people to shut up and accept double-digit inflation instead of taking the opportunity to explain that inflation is a direct result of bad government policy. It's perfectly fine to notice that burritos shouldn't be $20. Instead, Chris, we got this whole debate of like, oh, they're not $20 actually.
oh, you should be cooking from home and baloney and craft singles and all kinds of stuff happened, which I just felt like, God, it's so confused. Please, please, please, ground us again in what good policy should be and where does inflation actually come from and why that's so important for the next generation to understand. Yeah, no, great question. It's good to be with you. And sorry for last week. I had three kids with vomiting and then I caught it and I was in no shape on Friday. But we're back in action today. So look, I've been there. Here's the burrito thing. All right. The burrito debate was not actually about burritos. The burritos became a symbol or a signifier. And then everybody took their, whatever, their pet ideological issues and tried to jam it into this huge debate burrito. And... It got so weird that people were like, no, even if the burritos are $20, we have to keep bombing Iran. Like, what are we doing? So, yeah, the basic thing is... Look, neo-conservatives who are, if the interventionist on foreign policy and free market in economics, I half agree with them. I'm also free market on economics. I think supplies at economics works. I think monetary critiques of inflation are largely accurate. The price of goods went up a lot during COVID because the Trump administration and then the Biden administration flooded the United States with dollars. just as the amount of goods was contracting, right? So supply chains are tightening. The amount of goods in circulation is contracting slightly. The flood of dollars goes out. This is like economics 101 in high school. That's going to lead to inflation. And then the reason the inflation happened mostly in the Biden administration, it slowed down during Trump. But people are starting to feel the inflation in two ways. One, in their big picture family budgets, housing is very expensive, college education is very expensive, health insurance is very expensive, car insurance is very expensive. It squeezes your budget so that when you go to a Chipotle or a kind of upscale, fast, casual burrito place, and your burrito is $20, that feels more significant. And look, it is more significant. And Republican... who are just going to say, shut up, accept that, you know, that these kind of small luxuries, right, small indulgences. Yeah, they're up 50% in five years, but just shut up because your grandpa ate rat meat during the Great Depression. Like, okay, from a large point of view, yeah, you should learn from your ancestors who went through hard times. You should use it as inspiration. But as a political matter, like, what are we doing? That's just political suicide to tell people to accept 50% inflation on small indulgences. And I just don't take it very seriously from people who claim to be.
free market, fiscal conservatives, monetary conservatives to just justify inflation because they fear that the critique is really about the war. And that's what was happening. And I think people should just accept, should not fall for the facial debate, but should actually go for why are people seemingly to arguing something that they actually don't support in principle. Yeah, Chris. I thought about whatever you make of what causes inflation. It felt like weird territory to be fighting on because, as you mentioned, the biggest drivers of why life feels unaffordable, as you mentioned, housing, health care, education, as you know, those are things that are very expensive in large part because they are where the government is most involved. They meddle the most. These are all heavily socialized. Even the $20 burrito, I think... When we dived into it, the context was often, this is what my college's meal program charges me for, and that's often a cartel where you're forced to sign up, and all of this is enabled with endless government student loans. And so what do you think rhetorically is the best approach to it? Because it struck me that the best pivot off of this should be we need to go after the real drivers of why your life is unaffordable, which is... inextricably bound up with stuff that the left wants to just pump more free money into to keep the price rising. Yeah, that's exactly right. And so you need to take the opportunity, just say, break it down. Why is a burrito $20? Breda is $20 because of bad monetary policy because of, you know, you could say, you could even talk about, you know, higher mandatory, higher wages. You could talk about immigration. There's, there's. Immigration for housing prices. I mean, there's a lot of ways to explain why the cost of goods has risen. There's a couple, couple key things, monetary policy, the government takeover of sectors of the economy, and mass immigration driving up the prices of things like entry-level housing, let's say. So just make that argument. And it's not about Trump. It's not about the war. Make the actual substantive economic argument because... The other point that I was trying to make is right now people are feeling, and you could show them a million charts to try to explain to them why they shouldn't feel this way. But the reality is that people are feeling pinched economically. Even people who are a professional class income, let's say six-figure income, have one or two kids living in a city or a close ring suburb, they're feeling pinched. And if they're hearing from one side, we're going to give you free health care, free child care, you know, free college education for your kids. And the other side is shut up and eat the rat meat. You're going to get your clock cleaned every time. And so let's not be stupid. Let's not pander. Let's not offer our own version of free stuff. But actually, let's make a good argument that will solve people's problem that take seriously their emotions. And again, conservatives need to ditch this 2016.
ridiculous idea that facts don't care about your feelings. The opposite is almost certainly more true in politics. Your feelings, if you have them, are impervious to the facts, to charts, to logic. And so actually meet people where they are, say, you know what, you're feeling pinched about inflation. You're going to hear this argument that you're going to get everything for free from the DSA. But actually the DSA is the reason why those things are expensive in the first place. Come over here. Let me explain to you why. That these people are making it more expensive. They're taking away what you could have. They're flooding the country with dollar bills and mass migration and exploding costs. we have a smarter way that's actually going to solve your problem. Just like make that argument and I think it could be more successful. Well, I agree. And that was that was the only reason. I think people were shocked that I would, you know, come in and admit that things are more expensive and that we have affordability crisis. But I even pointed to the fact that this was because this is a hangover from Biden your inflation and COVID. Like, let's be honest about those. The Titanic cannot turn on a dime. It's going to take a while for policies to take effect and affordability issues to ease. And I think everybody's just freaking out about that and making a proxy about Iran or something was just predictable. But, like, all the nuance was lost. In the modern era, the important next step. is to recognize that today governments control the quantity of money. So that as a result, inflation in the United States is made in Washington and nowhere else. If you listen to people in Washington talk, they will tell you that inflation is produced by greedy businessmen. But none of them produce inflation for the very simple reason that neither the businessman nor the trade union nor the housewife. has a printing press in their basement on which they can turn out those green pieces of paper we call money. Only Washington has that printing press, and therefore only Washington can produce inflation. A wise man. We're back. Yeah. Chris, I... I posted that on my ex account, but I just think it's so comforting to hear the wise way, like grounding this whole debate in something just fundamental, that if you are mad about inflation, if you're mad about the cost of goods, that is a direct result of bad policy. And when you talk about DSA, when you talk about this rise of free stuff populism, they believe in something called modern monetary theory, which is basically an engine for unlimited inflation. So the floor is yours. How important is it to get just our facts right? Basic economic literacy.
Yeah, I mean, look, we tried modern monetary theory during COVID. And actually, it worked out not like how the DSA's economists thought it would work out, but it worked out precisely how Milton Friedman would have predicted it would work out. So, yeah, you flood the country with dollars, you print endless amounts of money. It causes inflation. And so I think, look, economists will say, actually, it's a little more complicated than monetary policy only. There's a couple different routes to get inflation. But we know for a fact that inflation. as a core driver. And you could see this all over the world in all different types of history. And so I think another person who really understands this is our Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. And so what I would like to see from Secretary Scott Bessent, who's really one of the best cabinet members in the Trump administration, is maybe to take on not the burrito debate, that's probably a little below the pay grade for the Treasury Secretary. But to start making the case for what the Trump administration has done right, they've reduced inflation significantly. You see a little uptick since the Iran War because of increased fuel prices. But it's actually now within that kind of target zone that is probably, some would say, that the right zone, 2%ish, a little tick higher. But I think also the administration needs to make a better case moving forward. how they're going to actually tackle these issues. And I think, you know, they had the announcement about preventing Black Rock or Blackstone or Black whatever from buying the houses. I think that's probably more symbolic than substantive. But they really need to be talking about immigration, you know, that demand side inflation. They need to be talking about good monetary policy. They need to be talking about how they're going to break up some of those sectors of the economy that are, you know, government-backed cartels. And so we need to make a better debate. And I think what's happening is that the left is just sucking up all the oxygen on these issues with Zohran Mamdani, with Abdul El-Sayed, with all these other DSA candidates. They are right now, I know conservatives don't want to hear this, but it's true. They're dominating the debate on affordability. And because these are all very top-ticket issues for voters, they're going to win a lot of these campaigns in the midterms, unless we see new arguments, new policies, new messaging from the right. Well, and listen, a lot of these bad ideas get started on campus. They don't stay on campus. They go out into the government and corporate boardrooms and all that stuff. That's what Charlie used to say. And we have this great story out of the UK. I'm so sad. It's been bubbling up for two weeks at this point. And we just have not gotten to it. I'm very sad. You know I'm talking about, of course, Chris, this Jason Arday, a professor at the University of Cambridge, one of the oldest universities, one of the most distinguished in the world. And if you haven't followed this, you guys should all Google this immediately because it's so funny. He was the youngest black professor in the history of the University of Cambridge. And he supposedly had this long list of accomplishments, very bizarre ones. He was saying he once ran 600 miles and six days. He was claiming that racists were sending him pigs heads.
whole long list of comical claims. He claimed he was a pool shark who made thousands of dollars. And then a former academic, Nathan Kovnis, analyzed his work and said, this guy is a plagiarist. All of his work is a sham. 100% got him dead to rights as a serial fraudster. Should have been fired immediately. And instead, tons of left-wing academics came out, publicly signed a letter defending him, saying these are racist attacks on him. And it just turns out that was a bad guy to defend. So I wanted to ask you about this, Chris, because you're the guy who put CRT critical race theory into the mainstream. You've been one of the top voices in really making it okay for us to stand against DEI. So the floor is yours for a few minutes. Talk to us about what this guy's career represents and how... Frankly, he's not really a caricature. He represents what we've allowed our institutions to do because we've done this for so many years. Yeah, I mean, look, he's like a rich symbol. And he illustrates all these different right-wing arguments and then the deficiencies of all the left-wing arguments. He's like an allegory for these political concepts. And so the other thing he said is that he didn't learn how to read and write until after he graduated high school until he was 18 years old. That might be, you know, theoretically possible, but I think it's also very unlikely to be true. He didn't talk until he was, you know, a preteen or something. But look, what liberals want more than anything is to have a living symbol of poor, oppressed, African-American, overcoming hardship. And so what Jason Ardei gave. liberal administrators of these institutions was a kind of hallmark movie, Hallmark Channel movie of a magical overcoming of oppression. He adopted all of the buzzwords that they wanted to hear. And then he was just quickly and quite easily, you know, picked up and elevated through these institutions the uh the college degree graduate degree professorship at cambridge visiting professorships everywhere uh 1.4 million dollar book deal to tell his life story and this is like a fairy tale version that anyone that had basic scrutiny or anyone that it looked at his actual academic work uh could have easily seen with any amount of skepticism whatsoever None of this checks out. Actually, this is, none of this makes sense. This is all impossible. But the institutions are so dedicated to suppressing that reality in the interest of these racial fairy tales that they just kept him on this almost unlimited rise to power. And the ending of the story, and I'm glad you held it so I could deliver it, is that actually Cambridge itself also defended him. against these accusations of plagiarism, which were completely true, saying, no, no, we looked at it. It's just racism. It's all fine. And so the university itself, when faced with overwhelming evidence of the fraudulent life story, the fraudulent academic work, the fraudulent human being that they had elevated as their star professor.
chose to defend the fraud because they're so committed to these racial fairy tales. And ultimately, he resigned so the story ends with some justice. But the real crime was not committed by Arde. He was just a man playing the game. The crime was committed by our institutions. Amen. Well said. Well said, Christopher Rufo. Rufo and Lomos, check it out. Thank you, my friend. This summer marks three years since the Dobbs decision. And since then, the total number of abortions each year has only increased. With greater access to telehealth and abortion pills in the mail, medication abortions now account for more than 60% of all abortion, and that number is only growing. That's why pre-born gives free ultrasounds to girls and women. When a young woman sees her baby and hears her heartbeat. It doubles the chance she'll choose life. So $140 helps give five mothers a free ultrasound and saves babies. $280 helps save 10 babies. And just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day. And a $15,000 gift, and I know there's some of you out there, $15,000 gift will provide an ultrasound machine that will save the lives of countless babies for years to come. Call 833-850-229 or click on the pre-born banner at charliekirk.com today. Preborn was so special to Charlie, and it's so important to me as well. Right now, you can help make motherhood possible by providing ultrasounds with preborn. I'd be so honored if you'd prayerfully consider joining us. All right, without further ado, Peachie Keenan, one of our favorites. She is the one of the most famous American trad wives. Peachy, welcome back to the show. It's good to see you. Hey, guys. Good to see you. Yeah, I couldn't. I was looking at your Twitter, your ex profile, and I was like, I was like, that's really cool. The economist called you that. It's not, I didn't make this up. The economist did. Um, so we've got so much to get into. But first and foremost, it is really, I mean, over the weekend, it was like, all I saw on my feed was Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez freezing her egg. So we got to start there. Okay. It's kind of a longer clip. Well, that's not that long. Here we go. Sot 11. Don't be weird about this. Even though I know all of you won't be. Okay.
That wasn't so bad. So that's her injecting herself, I guess, with hormones to then harvest her eggs. I think it's worth starting there, actually, Peachy. The process for harvesting your eggs and freezing your eggs is extraordinarily invasive and hard and hormonal. Maybe just start there and then we'll get into why this is such a bad idea to be messaging to the culture. Yeah, it's a big commitment. You inject yourself repeatedly with these hormones and then you have to go kind of under the knife sort of under some general anesthetic or local and they harvest them. And they usually need to do the older you are, they need to do more times you have to do it. You know, if you're 30 and freezing, you can get away with maybe freezing 10 or 15 eggs. But if you're older, egg quality does go down. And when you defrost the eggs, there's fewer viable ones. You have to do, you know, 2530. So there's multiple. There's a whole road. It's a whole journey, you know, that you go on. And. But I tweeted that freezing your eggs in your late 30s is the equivalent of opening a 401k when you're 64 years old. I mean, you just don't have a lot of runway. And so to me, this just reads as completely a political stunt, a way for her to kind of negate the fact that she doesn't have a family to point to running for president where the other, you know, let's say JD Vance, he does. He has four beautiful children and a wife. And so this is sort of her... Instead of having a family, you know, husband and kids, she just has her fertility journey to run on. Well, what stood out to me, Pete, she is the values question. Like, it'd be one thing, I guess, if she at least was known to be... single time is running out she's like I still want to have kids and this is my only option but I think what really made people raise their eyebrows is as far as I know she's been with she's been engaged to her her boyfriend for four years at this point she's been with him as far as I know about as long as she's been in politics if not longer I think she knew him in college so what is this expressing here that apparently it's never the right time to actually settle down and have kids with the guy she's been with for over a decade Right. Women who do this typically are single. They don't have a boyfriend or a husband. They're worried that they may not find someone and they don't want to age out of the process. I mean, I understand that. And there's also women who do it for medical reasons. They have cancer. Totally understandable. Or like major fertility issues. They cannot conceive naturally or whatever. But she, as far as I know, doesn't have any fertility issues. She definitely would have let us know if she did. And she's been with Riley for many years. Her sort of weird, like, nebula. boyfriend fiance or whatever he is. And so I don't really think that this is something like motherhood is on the table for her. I think she's extremely ambitious. We know exactly what she's planning to do starting next year. And so motherhood is like, if she really wanted to be a mom, age 36, almost 37, she has a fiancé. You know, there's an easier way.
to have your baby unless you want to wait until you're she's already had two terms like then you're 50 so uh this is just clearly like i said i mean this just is you know she wants to run on relating to women who are scared to be pregnant in trump's america and she actually has used that phrase how dangerous it is for women in trump's america We have no, women have no rights, no reproductive freedoms. Trump's coming to like, what's you trying to do? Like, seize your uterus. Like, it's totally made up. But this is the fear tactic that she's going to run on. That's such a good point. I mean, and what always gets lost in this conversation, in my opinion, is that, you know, you made the point. If she runs for president, we all know that that's kind of, she's putting her career first, like, you know, that what she's encouraging so many progressive women to do. And she would be, in theory, 50 by the time she's done with this journey that she's on. How is that putting the kids first? Do you really want a 50-year-old mom with like a fresh baby, like coming home from the hospital? No, you don't. You want young moms, it's a virtue. It's a blessing to have that kind of energy. And you constantly are not putting the needs, wants, and concerns of your child first. And that's my like larger, bigger problem. I think Charlie hit this, hit the nail on the head. This was just, this was from September 8th, 2025, PG. So it breaks my heart to see this, but he spoke directly to this. issue on Fox News, SOT 13. Children is more important than having a good career. I have two kids. I also have an amazingly blessed career. Our podcast is doing great. But my kids matter way more than how many social media followers that I have. And I would also tell young ladies, you can always go back to your career later that there is a window where you primarily should pursue marriage and having children. And that is a beautiful thing. This is not about shaming. It's not about ridiculing. It's not about moralizing. It's about lifting up what is beautiful. And by the way, we look at the mental health data. Young women are not okay. Half. That is right. half of liberal white women say that they have some form of mental health issue that has been diagnosed by a doctor what is the number one thing that mental health professionals will tell you when it comes to mental health issues loneliness does not help so maybe we should solve the loneliest epidemic by encouraging young ladies to get married and have children it's good for them it's good for america and it's good for our future You know, it felt like he's literally speaking directly to her. Here's the data here, Peachy. 136. Young women are the most democratic group in the country. 136. Throw this up. You see that big blue node over on the right? This is 18 to 29-year-old women that 66% of them identify as progressive. I mean, this is uphill climb.
Yeah, I mean, I think that is clearly why she's doing this. I think she can't campaign on, I don't want kids. We're not quite there yet. But she can, this is sort of her way of like delaying that conversation saying, no, I do, but I can't because I have ambitions. And in Trump's America, in right-wing America, women are not allowed to have it all. But I was told, the feminists have told me for decades that women can have it all and that women who are mothers and have children. can have careers. And I mean, here I am. And many women in the Trump White House today have careers and babies. And it can be done. And the message was you can do that. You can have it all. You don't have to choose one of the other. But here's Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez saying actually no. I mean, she's actually being quite traditionalist about this and saying, no, I have a career. Therefore, I can't have, be a mother. I can't combine those two jobs. it can't be done. And so in a way, it's like, well, there's like horseshoe theory. We kind of like the trads and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, are we meeting here? Like, do we agree on something? Because, yeah, I don't think you really could be. There are certain careers, let me just put it this way, that really it's, it is difficult to be a mother and have kids. If you're, I don't know, an astronaut or a brain surgeon, or there are certain, we all know, like there's tradeoffs, right? But here she is saying that there's no way I can do my job with a child. But what is her job? I mean, she goes to D.C. and votes three times a year. She has the easiest job in the world. She can have 10 kids and wouldn't even interfere. She wouldn't even have to ever take a day off. Hmm. What's your message to Gen Z women right now? Why should you be conservative? Why are progressives leading them astray? I really think it's important to hear from other women on this stuff. Yeah, I mean, there are some women who are saying, like, well, we shouldn't be kind of like talking about her in a negative way because this conversation will turn women off. It will make them stressed out or whatever. And so, okay, yeah, if you're 40 or 38 or whatever and you have delayed, you have frozen your eggs, it is going to make you nervous hearing and seeing something all these statistics and all these things of like, whoa, you're kind of on the long road here. You're taking a big risk. It's really important, though, to talk to Generation Alpha women, women who are not yet even there, teenage girls, women in college, who, you know, They're not maybe sure that they want, we saw how many liberals there are, how feminism has worked so well to kind of turn women away from marriage and children. But if you do think you want a child one day, please, please remember that there are, there is science and there is data that we have for decades on what your fertility rate is at certain ages. It changes. And what egg freezing really is. Egg freezing is largely a scam. And it's largely used by certain big corporations as like an enticement to HR will use it to get you hired. Free egg freezing. And all that is is your boss doesn't want you to take maternity leave. So it's really there's no benefit to the woman at all from this. Yeah. I think that's such an important point. Because you could freeze your eggs and you still can't get pregnant with them later.
Maybe you get a surrogate. I don't know what their plan is, but it's, it's so broad. You can't freeze your uterus. You can't freeze your cervix. Yeah, yeah. Hi, folks, Andrew Colvett here.

You know, I've always trusted the science. And I thought I was a man my entire life. But, you know, after further review, you know, strong look at my personal preferences. It would appear that I am indeed sometimes identifying as a transgender woman. And I think it's only fair I get a chance to play with some of my queens here in the twilight of my career, my athletic prime. Some of my queens. Oh, that's just, it's too good. All right. So let's just back this up so we all have all the facts. Okay. So Sophie Cunningham says, hey, I don't think, you know, we should have, women should have to play against men, you know, in the league. This becomes a whole topic of conversation. And then you got all these WMBA players saying, actually, you know, I wouldn't. I would totally be okay with playing against a man on the court. And so lo and behold, we've got Ennis Cantor Freedom, who's declared for the draft. She's doing a great job. She's a, you know, I think what's, what's, what's, what's, what's, what's, uh, height here. I think Ennis, hold on. We had it, we had it written down here somewhere. It's just too good. Uh, I think Ennis is, let's see here. Six foot 10, 250 pounds. She's a big girl. And Royce White is six foot eight, 260 pounds. The transgender woman Royce White. It's very exciting stuff. This is too juicy for us not to talk about. Blake makes fun of me because every week it feels like we're talking about the WNBA now. It feels like we are every week. I think we're on four or five weeks straight. This is honestly, I will say this is a lot more interesting than the normal NBA for me at this point. Like the social drama, the Lord of the Flies, the coaches attacking their own players because they care more about politics. It's like WWE. You're here for the soap opera. Exactly. What do we make of this, Beachy?
Yeah, I mean, I think it's so funny. It's so inevitable. I wrote a comedy sketch a few years ago making fun of this, that all these guys show up for the tryouts at the college and they all on the women's team and they all get on because it's so comical. They're transgender women, peachy. They're women now. And I'm going to call Edith by her pronouns from now on, okay? I'm going to, you know, God bless her. I was just thinking there must be some genius in the WNBA, in their accounting department, their marketing team, who finally sees a way to get people on the right to care about WNBA. And like, I would go to these games if these guys got on the team. That would be the most, the most hilarious, greatest, like, game I would ever see? I mean, right? Wouldn't they be selling out stadiums all over the country if this is what they did? And what are the rules? I mean, these, according to the WNVA's own rules, right, aren't these guys completely eligible? So I think it's just hilarious what they're doing. I hope one of them gets on. I'm rooting for her. For her. Yeah. Well, the WMBA is going to continue talks about transgender athletes this week. So the WMBA Commissioner Kathy Inglebert sent a memo to teams that addresses ongoing discussions around transgender athletes in women's basketball. The memo said the topic will be discussed further by a task force of team presidents and general managers at a previously scheduled meeting. this week so we're hopefully we're going to be able to talk about w mba continuing here uh blake because we know it's your favorite topic i i think it's i think it's brilliant now there's this other there's this other line that's happening it we're still seeing this like anti sophy anti kathlet and clark sentiment bubbling up amongst the players. And over the weekend, somebody who sounds like mustard, I don't know how he said, Dijonet Carrington, slam Sophie. This is the image of white privilege right here. That's what they really mean when they say white privilege. Can we just be honest about it? Here is the play in question. You'll see. Just how I think egregious this foul was, and it was completely intentional, not going for the ball at all. Yep, Sots, okay, there we go. Right here, look at this. Slow motion, smack. Then she goes right, Dijunay, goes straight on social media and says, white privilege. Now, Sophie has made a name for herself in many ways, but she's also been Caitlin Clark's defender as she's been getting absolutely fouled up, you know, up and down the court, and the refs refuse to enforce it. So you have anti-white sentiment raging in the WMBA, and then you have this whole trans debacle. I mean, is the WMBA the most?
patently insane professional sports league in the country now i think the answer has to be yes but what do you make of this that it seems like sophie is being targeted because she's a white woman now I mean, am I missing something? No, that's obviously what's going on. She's white. She's pretty. She has long blonde hair. And she's getting all this media attention. And she's getting probably more sponsorship deals or speaking engagements or whatever it is. So there's like a lot of, I'm sure, professional jealousy. And I mean, I'm just going to, you know, say the obvious that this Djeunet has a wig on that's like mimicking Sophie's hair, which obviously isn't her own like hairstyle. Is Sophie allowed to come to work with like, I don't know, long braids or whatever? Like, no, that's not allowed. And so it's just to say white privilege here, the privilege of getting clothes lined while you're about to score, about to like dunk. This is what we're seeing, but we're seeing crimes like this, like this sort of beatings and attacks. I mean... We've seen this in extreme examples of like arena on the subway. We see these sort of like hate attacks, black on white, beatings for no reason. Like that guy who was just walking around the street punching out white women on camera a few days ago, that crazy guy. This is just sort of a kind of okay now. This is sort of normalized. It's okay to be angry at your perceived villain, your enemy because of the color of their skin. And this is what BLM has basically. has wrought after you know six years of this madness where now it's okay you're you don't get in any trouble for doing this you're not like you don't lose your career you you probably gain more clout um by doing this by showing like your credibility or whatever that's a great point that's a great point i actually posted immediately i was like actually this isn't white privilege at all this is this is black privilege she has black privilege she knows she can do this she's not going to be you know, kicked out of the league or something. And she has black privilege to the point she can go rush to social media and instantly play the victim. That's what it is. Peachy, I want to make sure I get a second for your book here, Supervillains. Blake loves your... Great cover. I love the look on the cover. Yeah, this is a beautiful cover. It comes out in like a week, so I wanted to make sure you get a chance to plug it. Please tell us about it. Thank you. Yeah, Supervillans. Architects of America's Decline. This sort of was born out of the last few years of like the woke era. All of these crazy, all the craziness going on. We were like thinking, who are these people? And maybe we should name some of their names. So did a ton of research into who's responsible for like the immigration disaster, for like a lot of the biohacking around, you know, fertility, foreign policy, you know, everyone from Daniel, Daniel Penny's persecutors in the New York subway case. The doctors, Dr. Anthony Fauci makes an appearance here. And lots of people are named in this book who you've never heard of.
They're kind of like the guy behind the guy. And so we really uncovered some amazing tidbits. There's names that you will know, obviously, but a lot of great stuff in here. There's the feminists, I call the female liberation theologists, these feminists who are causing Gen Z to go so far left. And I did dedicate this book to Charlie, of course. Comes out September 1st. You can pre-order it now. Bless you. Bless you. Yeah. Congratulations on that. Peachy Keenan. Yeah, I'm really excited about it. One of America's most famous tradwives based resident female.
