President Trump accuses Democrat Senate candidate James Tallahfrico of beating and then eating meat. Vice President J.D. Vance wins the crowd with the first big speech of 2028. And Congressman Branding Gill emerges as the breakout star. Then Senate Majority Leader John Thune gets booed. A wild night at the RNC, we have the recap then. A new survey shows that college campuses are increasingly violent and homosexual. More gay than violent, extremely light in the loafers, but also notably violent.

2:02We'll get into the numbers. And women on Oprah react to the Lindsey Clancy case by demanding that black women have the right to murder their children too. I'm Michael Noles. This is the Michael Noles show. Welcome back to the show. While the Republicans had this historic midterm party convention, first time ever, the Democrats who were now dominated by the socialists, they had their own kind of sort of convention. It was the Socialism 2026 conference at which the socialists admitted to and called for burning down police stations. We'll get to all of that first though. I want to tell you about Bollum Branch. There's a lot more to say first. They'll go to bollum branch.com slash noles. Can it have you LES use code noles? There are a few things more annoying than waking up at two

4:15that it's 9.11. So 25th anniversary of 9.11 kind of sneaks up on you. Quite a week. We had the anniversary of Charlie Kirk's murder yesterday. I was in Utah for the memorial, which is up on on the TPSA page. TPSA did an amazing job. The speakers were really moving. I was sitting backstage watching a bunch of them. It was very moving. The year anniversary really snuck up on me. I suspect it snuck up on a lot of you. Then right after that, you have the 25th anniversary of 9.11. I am a New Yorker by birth and upbringing. I was given some thoughts. I think I have a different reaction to the 25th anniversary of 9.11 than most people I'm seeing. I will get into all that first of the R&C. President Trump comes out, clip of the convention in which he is talking about the Democrat Senate nominee in Texas. We got a new nickname dropped. The new nickname is for James Talleriko, who Trump is now calling James Tallerfrico. He is accusing him of something very

5:16vivid. But it was bad for his image, so he started eating meat, and he recently, it's getting worse. I'm getting myself in trouble. Getting worse. JD Vance and Bobby Kennedy just absolutely rolling in the seats. Well, Trump does this stand-up routine because he's the best working stand-up comedian, and it's not even close. He just gets up there. Might as well spotlight on him, stool behind him.

6:17Might as well be light in the cigarette. You all hear about this? You hear about James Tallahfrico. James, he wanted to beat meat. That's what he said. I don't know why, why are you laughing? Why do you bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump. He wanted to beat meat, but he couldn't beat meat, so now he's going to eat meat. Is that, uh-oh, I don't. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. Just great stuff, great stuff, and just a little note here. We'll get into some of the serious policy that came out of the convention, but little note here. For the people who say this is degraded, this is below the office of the president, this is undignified. First of all, he's, the pun has kind of plausible deniability because James Tallahfrico was a, it's like a soy boy kind of vegetarian-ish. You know, I don't know if he's literally a vegetarian, but he just, he gives off the vibe. You know, we need to reduce our consumption of meat in order to stop the climate change

7:21and all that. He realized you can't, you can't run that way in Texas and win a statewide race. So then he, he took that picture trying to choke down a rib at some barbecue restaurant that wasn't believable. So he went from, he wanted to beat meat and now he wants to eat what he all happened for, bum, bup, bup, bup. For the people who say this is undignified, you know we live in a democracy, right? You know, we live in a, a republic where the people vote and that, there are many advantages to democratic republics, certainly in mixed regimes such as the framers gave us, but one of the disadvantages is sometimes you get, you play to the crowd, okay? That's not, you can't blame Trump for that. That's just part of living in a government that is largely democratic is you play to the crowd. The King of England probably is not making the beat, eat, meat jokes, but the president of the United States absolutely is. That's just how it goes. And it's funny and it's, the other reason that the joke works so well is it's so vivid.

8:21I mean, this is why the Trump nicknames work so well. What, whether we're talking about low energy jab or little Marco is always sweating. You remember this from 2016? Now Trump is friends with most of these guys, but they, they just gave you images. And that's the same thing here. Now you just, it's so yucky, the kind of images that he's not imposing on Tallerico, but he's pulling from James Tallerico. Even the nickname Tallerfrico, you think it's really simple, but it rings true because he is a freak. He calls God non-binary. He says that women are our neighbors with uteruses. He uses the blessed Virgin Mary as an example to promote abortion. He's a freak, man. He is a true freak. And so that plays into that. And his girlfriend goes to another school in Canada or something. And so he's ostensibly the straight-peat Buttigieg. I don't know about that. It just, it works because it rings true. That's part of the reason why the crowd was rolling. And right now with Tallerico up in that Senate race, I hope that sticks. Speaking of Texas, Brandon Gill, our buddy, Brandon Gill, freshman in Congress, rising

9:27star, president of the freshman class in Congress, gets a lot of good clips. He's gotten a lot of good buzz. The RNC was his breakout moment. I think of all of the politicians who were trying to raise their profile, who were trying to command a national platform, nobody at the RNC did it better more convincingly than Brandon Gill. It's only appropriate that we kick this convention off properly with a land acknowledgement. I'd like to acknowledge that we stand here today in the great state of Texas and the United States of America, the ancestral homeland of great American patriots, pioneers, and explorers who put down roots, fought for freedom all over the globe, and blood and died to

10:28build the greatest civilization ever known to man. Okay, great stuff. It's pretty red meat. I want to do a landing knowledgement. This land is the best, but it's more than just red meat because he's really saying something. He's really subverting the left wing genre of the landing knowledgement by saying, no, this land is our land. Of course, the left comes out, they say, this land isn't our land. It really belongs to the OGB nation that hasn't possessed it for like 200 years and that only actually possessed it for a small number of years before that, but it's anyone but ours. It belongs to anyone but us. And he comes out there and he says, no, this is our land. We inherit this land. He's a star. He's a star, Brandon. He just did great. Notice the other thing about his speech. He's getting a lot of plotts here. No one on the right can object to the things he's focusing on. It's not just that he's good at delivering the line. It's not just that he looks the part, he sounds the part.

11:30It's not just that. It's like the difference between a reporter and an editor. The reporter might be a good editor. Sorry, the reporter might be good at selecting words in a story, but the editor is good at selecting stories and placing stories and choosing the headline. Brandon seems to have both of those skills. He knows what to talk about. He knows what to leave out. He's not focusing on the really divisive issues on the right. He's not talking about tariffs. He's not talking about the Iran war or Israel or any of these things that seem to be dividing the right. He's landing on these issues that really matter and that unify Republicans and he's doing in a very persuasive way, excellent, excellent stuff on this theme of inheritance, on this theme of the land that we possess, that we are possessed by to use the phrase of Robert Frost, a John F. Kennedy's inauguration. JD Vance really builds on this. I thought he did a great job describing the country and what the country means to us in his speech, which is also getting very, very high marks.

12:35Now we live, of course, in an imperfect world of fallen men. We live in the city of man, not the city of God. I believe that our founders built this nation on a promise that echoes our creator. That every American child is born and heir, is born with a birthright. Born with the right to inherit the blessings of the greatest country on earth, not because of who their parents are, not because of what they look like or where they come from, but because they are Americans, and this is our country. Really good stuff. One of JD Vance's great political gifts is that he's super duper smart and super duper well educated, but he doesn't shove it in your face. He speaks in a very common and accessible kind of language, but that's an extremely complex and nuanced, even a little bit from his speech. Notice what he's getting in there.

13:36He's getting in an allusion to St. Augustine, so he's plumbing the depths of the Western tradition. By saying, this is your land, this is an inheritance, this is something that you get from your birthright that you have to pass on. He is also subverting the very popular view of America, reductive, I think liberal view that took hold at the end of the 20th century, and which persists still to to this day, which is that America is just an idea. It's the purely credal conception of America. America's an idea. It's not a place, it's not a race, it's an idea. Anybody, a guy in Timbuk too, he might be more American than a guy whose family's been a West Virginia for 200 years. That's the credal view of America. On the other side of that, there's this purely kind of racial blood and soil view of America, which is that if your skin is a little too dusky or something or if you've only arrived within the last 75 years instead of 175 years that you're less American or something like that, he also avoids that because he's speaking of the land, not as a person,

14:38but purely kind of biological construct, but also not as an ideological construct. He's speaking of the country as an inheritance. This is profoundly conservative in the very best Anglo-American tradition, guys like Edmund Burke and Russell Kirk. But you don't know it, he's not quoting these guys, he's not citing these guys. He just infuses his rhetoric with St. Augustine and Burke and Kirk and all of this great stuff from the tradition. He does it because he is in fact refocusing the right on what I think is a more defensible, classical, traditional kind of conservatism than the ideological, alternately libertarian or neoconservative views that dominated at the end of the 20th century. Really good stuff. He does it in a way that a guy who's never opened a political philosophy book can easily immediately understand. It's very, very good. It demonstrates an impressive political skill, but he's also turning conservatism in the right direction, in a more grounded direction in a way that speaks more purely to patriotism.

15:44I gave a speech at the Oxford Union a couple months ago, they just put it up on their YouTube channel. I think we put it up on our YouTube channel too, in which the resolution of the debate was, this house believes that Trump has betrayed conservatism and I was in the opposition on that motion. The debate came down to defining what conservatism is. Some people say it's an idea, some people say it's a set of policies, but neither of those definitions really holds up because all sorts of great conservative statesmen who we all agree are terrific, disagreed on policy. They disagreed dramatically on trade, on immigration, on foreign policy. They disagreed. It doesn't even come down to personal comportment because a lot of them had pretty disorderly behavior in their lives. It comes down to an affection, an inclination. It's more to quote Roger Scruton, it's more an attitude than it is an idea. It's a love of country. You see this clearly in this dichotomy we get, my country right or wrong or my country

16:44only when right. The more ideological people say no, it's my country when right. In other words, patriotism is the conclusion to an analysis that I make of my country. The good side, the bad side, if the bad side of the ledger outweighs the good side, then it's not my country and I don't have to defend it. But that's not what patriotism is. Patriotism is more akin to the respect you give to your mother and father. Patriotism is an extension of filial piety. You don't love your mother as a consequence of analyzing all the things she's done for you and all the slights she's committed against you. You just love your mother. You just owe her a certain degree of reverence and affection because she's your mother. In other words, that affection is the lens through which you view your mother, not the other way around. Same thing goes for patriotism. JD gets it. It's really, really good speech. Then we'll get into the practicality because it does seem like the coalition is fraying a little bit. JD addresses that directly. Then the Senate Majority Leader gets booed. We'll get to that in a second. First, they'll want to take back Cardiff.

17:44There's a lot more to say. First, they'll go to Cardiff.co-sledge-noles, www.businessowners have a disease. They look at almost anything and they think I could probably do that myself accounting. Marketing repair is shipping. Building the website. At some point, you're doing 17 jobs because hiring someone to do one of them costs money. You say, all right, look, my business is doing well. I want to grow. I can grow. But in order to grow, I need to spend money. I want to spend money. I want to make money. That is where Cardiff comes in. If you want bank rates without the bank delay, his Cardiff offers qualified businesses up to half a million dollars in same day funding. The application takes less than five minutes. There's no impact on personal credit. Proof will can happen within minutes. Do it. If you have been in business for at least a year and you're bringing in at least $20,000 a month in revenue, apply at cardiff.co-sledge-noles, www.les. That is cardiff.co-sledge-noles, www.les. Do not let the banks shut down the growth of your business. Do it.

18:45Get real growth. Get fast funding. Cardiff borrow better at cardiff.co-sledge-noles. Vance gets into the fraying coalition. Don't give the country over to a bunch of crazy people because you happen to disagree with us on a policy issue here there. Look, I'm not asking anybody to agree with me on every single issue. I'm not asking anybody to agree on every single policy, the administration. What I am asking you to do is to recognize the contrast with the radicals and recognize the achievements of the last 18 months. We have done a lot, my friends, and we can do a lot more if we fight together. I like that practicality. That practicality there is one way in which I think JD is doing a good job of trying to fill the role that Charlie Kirk held and that JD and Charlie Kirk were very good friends, famously very close friends.

19:46Charlie's chief political contribution, as we've all said many times over the last year, is that he maintained a coalition among people who didn't quite like each other who disagreed on all sorts of things. What JD is saying here is, hey, don't leave the coalition just because you don't love the Iran War. A lot of people don't like the Iran War. A lot of people don't like this aspect of economic policy. A lot of people wish that immigration policy were enforced in a slightly different way. The Iran War is a big part of this, of course. He says, hey, guys, it's fine. I hear you. I hear you, but don't turn on this coalition that has accomplished a lot just because you disagree on one policy or another. Don't turn the country over to crazy people who want to kill your kids, mutilate the kids who get out of the womb, open up the borders, flood it with a net five million immigrants per year, take all your money, persecute you, spy on your churches, don't turn the country over to these guys because you disagree on one policy.

20:47You can't, that is not how political victories are won. I think he's absolutely right on this. Then there's one, I don't think I pulled the clip for it, but we have to get to it. Maybe we'll add the clip in post-production. President Trump made a promise at the RNC. He said that if Republicans hold the house and the Senate in the midterms, he will give every American adult $5,000. Now, the fiscal hawks react to this and they say, this is terrible. This would cost over a trillion dollars. This is going to blow up the national debt. This is how, this is so irresponsible. I would just say, yeah, sure. Okay. Yeah, yeah. No, you're right. It would cost a trillion dollars. That's a, it's a minimum of money. Yeah, oh, I know. That's really, I know it's, yeah, it's kind of like, it's sort of like bribing the electorate. It's not technically bribing the electorate, but it's sort of like that. Yeah, yeah. No, I mean, but guys, first of all, this is lowercase. D Democratic politics. That's how it works. The politicians bribe the voters.

21:48That's how it works. Tammany Hall used to do it directly by paying people at direct payments to go vote. But the way it works structurally is that the Democrats bribe the voters by offering the offering them more welfare programs and the Republicans bribe the voters by offering them tax cuts. But the way money works, it's kind of similar. You know, I know we can say, well, tax cuts are just allowing you to keep more of your hard earned money. And when the Democrats give you direct payments from the government that, you know, that involves another step and it's less efficient. Yeah, it's true. It's a less efficient way to buy votes, but it does redound to the same kind of stuff. If you're not going to tie tax cuts to spending cuts, then it's much the same thing that the Democrats are doing. And that's just how government works. You can say that's bad. You can say that's irresponsible. Yeah. Okay, sure. But it's, that is how the system works. That's how we end up with the $40 trillion national debt. Whether we have Democrat, Democrats in office or Republicans in office, that's how we get to that. Essentially, no president has cut the size of government like ever with the exception of pulling back temporary spending after wars and crises.

22:49They don't really cut spending. So your problem is not with Trump. Your problem is not even with AOC. Your problem in that case is with the form of regime we have, which is a mixed regime that's largely Democratic. But the other reason I would say chill out over this, the Calhchee markets have Democrats at 85% chance of winning the House. It's a 50-50 chance right now that the Democrats are going to take the Senate. So in other words, you can criticize the policy and the rhetoric and you can, that's all fair game and everything. But politics is the art of the practical and the possible. And the reality is, it is highly, highly unlikely that the Republicans hold the House and the Senate. But the effect of this kind of promise is not going to be that we spend over a trillion dollars. What President Trump is clearly trying to do here, in my read, again, I haven't spoken to him or people close to him about this. But in my read, what is going on here is President Trump knows we are almost certainly going to get blown out of the water in the House.

23:50I mean, even though we picked up seven seats in redistricting, we are very likely, if the election were all today, we were going to get blown out of the water in the House. The fact that we were supposed to hold the Senate, now the Senate is in play is very worrisome. And so what President Trump is trying to do is he's trying to argue past the sale and he's saying, we got to win the House and the Senate and then I'll give everyone 5,000 bucks, knowing that the House is gone. The House is almost certainly gone. And so now the fight is really just to hold the Senate. This is a way to incentivize people to try to vote in these tighter Senate races to at least hold the Senate. But it will almost certainly not rebound to Republicans holding the full government. You can say, I don't like that. I wish you were being more blunt and direct about it. Okay, all right, welcome to politics. Speaking of, Randy Gill getting great plotts, JD Vance, same thing, President Trump, same thing. One guy got boot and that would be the Senate majority leader, Jonathan. Thune is here from the Senate. Where's John? Where's John? John is, John is working hard. He's got great opposition.

24:52He's got great opposition from the Democrat Schumer and these guys are terrible. Great opposition. He's working very hard. He's going to have great success. You watch. We are going to have great success with our Republican senators. And by the way, we have great Republican senators. David, thank you for being here. Okay, so here, this was not Trump as he sometimes does. Throwing some guy into the bus and then they get the booze. He says, yeah, stupid, you know, ABC or New York Times or CNN. Yeah, boo. That's right. He mentions the Senate majority leader, who's a Republican, and they start booing. He goes, no, don't pull him. He's working hard. But the people are furious and they're furious in part because the Senate doesn't seem to be accomplishing anything. And specifically, they're not getting the Save America Act passed, which would secure our elections because John Thune doesn't want to blow up the filibuster because it would lose minority rights if the Republicans do lose the Senate, though the Democrats might blow up the filibuster too.

25:53And because he just doesn't have the votes, forget about getting the Democrat votes, he doesn't even have a lot of the Republican votes. What's the big takeaway here? Trump is saying, no, no, Thune's, he's working hard. He's working hard. Don't boom. The big takeaway is something that I've called out for a long time. And I've been criticized for because people think I'm being too agilatory to Trump or something, but I'm not. I'm just observing the political landscape. The GOP is Trump. The party's semi says Donald Trump. He is the party. He's the Republican that people like. People will also like the other Republicans that Trump likes, but the ones that Trump is kind of fighting with or the ones who seemed to have distance from him, they don't like. That has been very effective for President Trump's campaigns, but looking ahead to a post-Trump era, what that tells me is either the GOP coalition's going to fall apart or Donald Trump is going to be involved, heavily involved in the post-Trump era. I'm quite confident. I've got a lot of money. I bet my $5,000 dividend check from the midterms that Trump will be very involved afterward.

26:58This tells me a lot about 2028. What it tells me about 2028 is what I predicted from the beginning, which is that the real primary is just winning Trump's endorsement. That's the primary. It's not winning Iowa and New Hampshire and South Carolina and Florida. The real primary is winning Trump's endorsement. My bet is that whoever Trump picks is going to be the nominee. I don't even think it'll be particularly close. It's just the mechanism of how the party works right now. I said something yesterday that I was kind of getting in trouble for on social media. I said in response to Trump's beat the meat bit on James Telefrico, I said, Trump is our Napoleon. I will not elaborate, but I will elaborate. I'll elaborate now. He's our Napoleon. In as much as Trump is a child of the revolution and the undoing of the revolution. Trump did not grow up in a Petri dish in the conservative movement wearing tweet and bow ties. He did not feast on the works of Edmund Burke and Russell Kirk and William F. Buckley Jr. and John Locke and Montesquieu for that matter.

28:02He didn't do that. Trump is a New York real estate guy, a guy who would go to clubs with supermodels. He is a product of the loose, fast, modern kind of 20th century. He was very popular in New York, left wing liberal society. He's one of them. He was the most popular guest on the view. He was the toast of Hollywood. He was in Hollywood movies. He was a child of the liberal revolution that changed mores and standards and the way we speak. He's vulgar. He's a reality TV star. He's all these things. He's a child of the revolution like Napoleon. Napoleon could never have risen to where he did without the French revolution. And when he rose, he became the undoing of the revolution. Napoleon crowned himself emperor. If only Trump would crown himself emperor. I don't think he's going to do that. But Napoleon began to re-institute after the revolution.

29:03As a consequence of the revolution, he re-imposed a new kind of order on things. That's exactly what Trump is doing. He is the Napoleon. In some ways, another Napoleon comparison for Catholics would be John Paul II. John Paul II was a child of the revolution. He was a child of the Second Vatican Council. But he was also kind of the undoing of it. He was the more conservative version that emerged out of it, but still within the framework of the Second Vatican Council and the reforms that followed. Same thing holds for Trump here. He is our Napoleon, which is why, by the way, that is why the Democrats realize they can't beat him at the ballot box. They can't beat him in ordinary ways. They have to banish him to St. Helena. They have to send him away. They have to put him on an island somewhere. He can't be contained. They have to kick him off the ballot. They have to try to assassinate him. They have to contain him differently. He's just a different kind of thing. He has an imperial control, if not over the country, it's certainly at least over the Republican Party. Let's turn to the left for a second because the Republicans had their convention, the

30:04midterm RNC first time ever. The left had its own convention, which was the Socialism 2026 conference, and the Socialists there admit to burning down police stations. We'll get to that in a second first, though, turning away from destruction toward building and growing things. I want to tell you about fast growing trees. There's a lot more to say first. They go to trees.com, Code Noles, www.leas. You have heard me talking about fast growing trees for a while. Well now, there are trees.com. What a great URL is that.

Socialism 2026, the pictures from the conference are exactly what you would expect. They're still wearing their face masks. The face masks, by the way, have a dual significance. On the one hand, it's a signify that they are weak because they idolize weakness on the left.

32:05They idolize vulnerability. They idolize aberrance and illness, mental illness, physical illness. So they literally symbolize that. That's the literal interpretation of the mask. But there's also a threatening kind of signification, which is that they wear the masks to hide themselves because they are much, much more violent than the right. And they are much more likely to endorse political violence. They endorse political violence at this conference. And so the dual signification of the mask is one, it's to protect me from you, from this imaginary violence of your bacteria because you're so toxic, you other people. But also, it's to protect me from the consequences of my threat to you. They wear the masks, the secular cafe in order to threaten people because they do commit violence. There's one DSA speaker threatening violence and describing the way that they all burn down police stations. When you abolish the police, you do burn down police stations, I imagine, indeed we have.

33:06But some people have allegedly feminism is never needed to know what a woman is in order to proceed. And that's just how it is. And she says, as freaks, as fagots and trannies, as records and miserable wrecks, as addicts and crazies, we need a junky communism. Now for over a decade, I've been part of sort of transgender materialist and anti-work, trans, Marxist effort in revolutionary feminism in the West that theorizes social reproduction and trans social reproduction and the positive supercession of capitalist care in an abolitionist frame. It's just its matlibs. These are literally matlibs. They are matlibs. But she's just words. It's like Hamlet says when he's feigning madness, his speech is not significant. It's just words, words, words. She's just the trans, disabled, Marxist materialist, it's just words jumbled together. We can all look at this and say, whoa, this kind of, not only does she sound crazy, but

34:08she's admitting to burning down police stations. She goes, we should burn down police stations. We have burned down police stations. She realizes she's admitting to a crime. She goes allegedly we've burned down police stations, whatever. She says, okay, these guys are total freaks, right? That's Talleriko. That's AOC. That's Mamdani. I'm not being hyperbolic. I'm not being needlessly provocative. What's the difference between a James Talleriko and a Mamdani and that lady? This is just their more open ideological conference to explain what their active politicians are doing. Ask James Talleriko, hey, do you disavow the socialism 2026 conference? Ask AOC, ask Mamdani. They won't. It's like, hey, do you disavow woke one? They'll say, yeah, I disavow it. You say, get specific. What do you disavow? They won't tell you. Oh, yeah, no, that conference, there were many provocative things that, okay, what do you disagree with? Do we not need to abolish the police?

35:09Do we not need to reduce the police, let criminals out of prison? Do we not need, they won't tell you. The comparison, I want to be very precise here. The comparison is not between the socialism 2026 event and the RNC necessarily. It's like the difference between socialism 2026 and the Heritage Foundation or the Claremont Institute or any number of right wing think tanks. Yeah, you speak a little differently at the think tank than you do at the RNC. You speak a little differently with policy wanks about ideas than you do to the public at a campaign speech. But they're directionally aligned. They're complimentary, the think tanks and the campaign conventions. Those are complimentary institutions. If you go to a Heritage Foundation conference or Claremont Institute conference, you'll basically figure out what I think or Trump thinks or JD Vance thinks or Mark Rubia thinks or you'll basically figure that out. They might use different language, it might be more in the weeds, it might be a little

36:11more provocative, but that's it. That's what we believe. Same thing here. You can't have a Democrat party that is completely dominated by socialists, where the socialists are now more popular than the rank and file members of Congress and then say, well, we have nothing to do with the socialism conference. They're the same thing. They're the same thing. Now speaking of these people, she mentions the trannies and all sorts of nasty names for homosexuals. Colleges are super gay and super violent. Like super duper so there's a news, you don't need to take my word for it. There's a new study app. Here we are. We have it. Over 20% of undergraduates at a representative sample of all colleges identify as LGBT. One in five. We used to joke because I went to a pretty homosexual university. My alma mater is sort of infamously light in the loafers. We used to joke that it was one in four, maybe more, but that was obviously an extremely exaggerated number.

37:12Now it's not. Now that's almost the number of LGBT identifying people at all American universities. And by the way, when you look at the 15 gayest universities, the numbers get insane. Harvey Mudd College 43% identify as LGBT. The Barnard College is almost 50%. Skidmore about 50%. Oberlin 62%. Smith College, which used to be one of the sister schools to some like the men would go to the Ivy League schools and the women would go to like Smith and Vassar and Smith 76.6%. Mount Holyoke 86.1%. That is statistically the most lesbian place on earth. I'm impressed my alma mater did not make it onto the gayest list. That's actually that's kind of a white pill. But this is pretty weird, right? This is a survey that was done by the foundation for individual rights and expression, which

38:12used to be called the foundation for individual rights and education. Fire does a lot of great work. They found that the colleges are super gay. And also let's get to the violence part. 30% of students say that using violence to stop someone from speaking on campus is acceptable. Which, you know, we've all experienced this, Charlie experienced it the most extreme way. A lot of other conservatives have experienced that. 9% of students say shouting down a speaker on campus is acceptable. So what does this mean? The violence thing is representative of the young left and really the whole left broadly. But what does it mean about the LGBT stuff? Why are these colleges so gay? Well, it can mean as far as I can see one of three things. It can mean that there's something in the campus water. There's just something in the water in the water founds that just turns you gay. Whatever it can mean, that sexual identity is malleable. That second one is related to the first one. It doesn't mean that there's literally like a physical environmental factor on the campus.

39:14But it could mean that LGBT identity and inclination is a social contagion. But it's not just you're born this way and you can't change it. Or the third thing is that the schools are only attracting people who are into weird sex stuff. So let's lump those first two together. The first two basically come down to we were told sexual identity is immutable, but it's not. You can actually be like a normal lady who goes to college and becomes a lesbian. We've probably all met people like that. There's that. Or it's that the colleges are only attracting people who are into radical sexual ideologies and identities. Either way, that's very bad for the LGBT movement. Either way, that's very bad for the argument of the left. If the colleges are only appealing to people who are into weird sex stuff, then clearly we need to reform the colleges because the whole point of education is to discipline your will, to train your intellect, but also discipline your will so that you are normal and you make sense of your freedom and you do things that are pro-social and in accord with right reason

40:18and natural law. So if the colleges are only attracting people who don't do that, something's going wrong with the college. But on the first point, if sexual identity is malleable, then the whole LGBTQ movement goes out the window because the whole thing is predicated on the idea that you're born this way and you can't change it and that's why society needs to accommodate these things up to and including letting men beat up girls and sports and go into the women's bathroom. Pretty is a devastating study for the LGBT movement. Now it doesn't really matter because they don't engage in a debate. I think we've learned that over the last year. The left isn't all that interested in debate. This is why the LGBT identity does tend to correspond with an increase in support for violence and on the left broadly, which is in favor of both of those things. Because they say, well, look, we don't have an argument for this. Our arguments don't make any sense, but shut up or we'll kill you. As what they're saying, that's what they said. There were people protesting Charlie's memorial last night at the campus where a leftist murdered him. There were people protesting. When I drove out of that venue, the driver, the security team said, hey, we're going

41:19to go a different way. We're going to do it this way because there are protesters and we want to keep everybody safe. So they're protesting a memorial for the nice guy who was debating openly that their ilk murdered. What? What? Okay. There's so much more I want to get to. We just don't have a ton of time for it. The one thing I do want to get to before the mailbag though is the women on Oprah, the women on Oprah who are reacting to the Lindsey Clancy case. Maybe this is the apotheosis. This is the culmination of the hysteria among crazy women over the Lindsey Clancy trial. The women on the Oprah show are discussing the Lindsey Clancy trial and they're not really getting down to, is she guilty? Is she culpable? Is she not guilty because of temporary psychosis and what should the punishment be? Should there be mistrial and they're not getting into that? The heart of the debate was if white women get to murder their kids, shouldn't black women have that right too?

42:20And the other thing that I would just be remiss to not say is I hope this never happens again. We know statistically it really will. It will. I want us to have the same passion for people who don't look like Lindsey, who don't have her same access. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Who don't have her same access and education, her melanin, her privilege, there are women of color sitting around this country in prisons for the same thing that we've never heard of. And I just want to remind us to have the pink shirts and the energy for them as well. Mm. I'm so pro woman. I'm so pro. I am the most pro woman man in politics. I am.

43:21I love the ladies. I love them. This is hard for me. This is making it hard. It's not. This is this is impairing my general outlook on women. I'm going to try not to let that happen. But it's the your conclusion from the Lindsey Clancy case is that we need to make sure the next time a woman murders her kids in cold blood that if the woman is black, she also gets away with it. First of all, this is statistically ignorant because black women are more likely to murder their kids than white women in through abortion. This is one. This has been one of the focuses of the pro life movement that many of us have been involved in for a long time is specifically making sure that black women do not murder their kids because black women murder their kids at higher rates than other kinds of women. There's that famous statistic that the majority of pregnant black women in New York murder their kids at the most dangerous place for a black person in New York City is in his mother's

44:22womb. Okay. This is a big, big problem. It's a big problem for all women in all of society, but specifically for black people. And then this woman's conclusion is, yeah, but shouldn't we get to murder the kids outside the womb just like Lindsey Clancy was this incineration that Lindsey Clancy was led off the hook because she's a white woman, which I don't really see. You know, I don't think white women. Now, okay, now in defense of white women, white women are one of the only groups in society that you are kind of encouraged to make fun of. The left hates white women because of the racial aspect because they don't like white people. But then the right feels comfortable attacking white women, calling them awfuls. You know, affluent white female liberals and, you know, poking fun at them all the time calling them carons. The right feels emboldened to do that because then at least they can't be called racist. So white women actually do. They don't get as much black as the white men, but they do get a little bit of black. The idea that Lindsey Clancy, the courts went softer on her because she's a white woman I think is implausible to begin with.

45:22But my conclusion from the Lindsey Clancy case is not that we need to make sure that women of all races can murder their kids. My conclusion is women need to not murder their kids and we need to punish them when they do. And you're changing feelings and a drug or two that you're on are not an excuse to get away with murdering your kid. They're calling for the Oprah show is calling for affirmative action for child murder. That's where we're at. Not okay. Hey, you know, I know I'm running late on the mail back. I don't care. It's 9-11 and it's the 25th anniversary of 9-11 and I'm a New Yorker and I, you know, when I was a kid I was in sixth grade when it happened. I had schoolmates who lost a parent and you know, one of my classmates lost, lost her father in 9-11. My mother worked in the city. I grew up in the suburbs. My mother worked in the city. She saw the tower fall, the first tower fall from a train platform in New York. So I remember very vividly and there's this meme that shows up. Maybe we'll add it in post. I didn't pull it. There's this meme that shows up and it's this picture, you know, kind of grainy analog

46:24camera footage of the Twin Towers in Lower Manhattan. That says the country you grew up in no longer exists. And it was a truly traumatic event. It, the 90s, everyone was pretty rich and it was super peaceful. We had the Cold War, peace dividend. We were on top of the world. We were told history was over. And then when 9-11 happened, it did change things. It changed how you go to the airports famously. But it destroyed the economy. A lot of people lost a lot in that. If you were in or around New York or Washington DC, you very likely knew, my mother lost a friend in 9-11. And like you knew people who, and then, and then afterward there was the cleanup and thousands of people became sick because of the chemicals at the site. So then you also knew people who died just from the cleanup and it was extremely traumatic and it was the real threat, the first real threat to American imperial hegemony in a long time. So yes, in that way the world totally changed.

47:24But I was thinking about this yesterday coming back from Charlie's event. I think some of our nostalgia over the 90s, pre-9-11, I think some of that is precisely that. It's nostalgia, it's history after a few drinks. Because I think when we look at pictures of the Twin Towers and we think about what we miss, what we long for, yeah. We're richer and we felt safer and America was on top of the world. That all is true. But I think a lot of what you miss is that like back when the Twin Towers were standing, your grandma was alive. Back when the Twin Towers were standing, you were younger. And I think what you're pining for was it to quote the eagles. It's not that thing that you're longing for. It's just your long lost youth. Because when you think about the 90s, yes, America was materially prosperous and we had this big dot com bubble and it was once in a century and also divorce was it like record highs.

48:24Also we talked about the Lindsey Clancy trial. Also we let a guy off the hook for murdering his wife just because he was black and we had race riots. Also abortion was it at massive highs. Also we couldn't even conduct a presidential election in the year 2000. Country was fraying over that. So we impeached the president and we also there was a lot of bad stuff. I don't know. It wasn't all that great. And to just look back and say, I've only 9-11 hadn't happened. We could we'd be living in paradise. It's just not true. It's not true at any point in history. When you look back and you say, if only we could unwind the clock, X number of years. There is no reason to believe that if you could do that and then set the clock going again that we wouldn't end up in exactly the same place. It's important as we should mourn for the dead today and we should mourn for this era that in some ways was better than the era that we live in. But we shouldn't get nostalgic about it.

49:26We should identify the real victims. We should identify the real enemies. We should be clear about America's geopolitical position. We should be clear about the hard work that needs to be done. But don't only look backward. You know, you've got to look forward. Life in some ways has improved since the 1990s. Believe it or not, it actually has improved in some ways. In some ways it's gotten worse. And in any case, that was their fight. And that time no longer exists. And there is no time machine. But that country does exist. Bringing us all the way back to the top of the show and what we were hearing from JD Vance and other people at the RNC. You know, this is our country and it is the same country. And we move on. And we have to deal with the sufferings of this fallen world, violence and death and decay. And we have to do our part in our time, which is not 1995 and it's not 2002. It's 2026. We have to do what we can in our time to win the fight. And we might even look back at some point in the future, hard to believe and say that these were the good old days. And we need to prevent the bad things that could occur and we need to try to build our country

50:27and make it better. It's part of our inheritance, which we didn't build ourselves. We received it as a gift and we owe it to our posterity to pass it on, such that the country that we grew up in actually can endure for generations. Okay. Our window treatments change everything.

The producer's picked it. It's from Overtoast. Because imagine the one real Nigerian prince who actually did want to give out his money, but kept getting called a scammer. I know. And the poor people who missed it. Okay. Our mailbag is sponsored by PureTuck at PureTuck.com slash Knowles, Canada VLAS. Today, take it away. Hey, Michael. Is it possible for a state to split into multiple states? So California's huge. Is it possible to split it up into three states, five states, something of that nature?

52:32How would it be done? Is it possible with love to know what you think? Sincerely, speechless controlling words, controlling minds. Nice. Nice. Technically, it could be done, but practically it cannot be done. No. The last time we were having these debates over splitting up states and territories was in the lead up to the Cold War. Sorry, a lead up to the Civil War. So only in times of great crisis would that happen. Otherwise it will not happen because the states don't want to give up their power and their tax bases. And the reason it would be split up is not just because it's big territory. California has been big for a very long time. California came into the Union right in the lead up to the Civil War. The thing that would split it up would be politics. It would be ideological disagreements, which split across geographic areas and which would probably be met with much the same response as ideological disagreements in the Civil War, namely, they would be crushed. By the people who are in power. So no, it's not going to happen.

53:33Next question. Hello, Mr. Noles. This did not comply RN here. As my user name suggests, am I only have a career because of the daily wire in their lawsuit? So thank you very much. I wanted to bring up a different perspective on the Lindsey Clancy case. You suggested that women who don't think that she's guilty, thinks that the husband did it are somewhat flawed in their reasoning. I suggest completely the opposite. My wife has thought that perhaps the husband did it and is curious about that. But in talking to her, I think this is more due to her nature as a wife and mother. She just cannot fathom that a wife and mother of three children, as she also has three children. Would you ever do this to her children? It's just something she cannot comprehend. And I think this is a way for many women to cope with the idea that no, a wife and mother

54:38could never do this. So it must be the husband. And I think that's almost a healthy thing and a good thing that my wife believes that, because I don't want her to be able to fathom that a wife and mother could kill her three children. So interested to hear your thoughts on that. Yeah. I think you're putting a claim in my mouth is not totally there, which is that my criticism of the pro-clancy ladies is focused on the ones who think that the husband did it. I mean, I think that's absurd. I don't think that's suggested by the evidence at all. So there's no reason to believe the husband did it at all. So I think they're just wrong or delusional. And maybe they're delusional for the reasons that you're pointing out here. But my bigger issue is with the women who acknowledge that Lindsey Clancy killed her kids, but want her to get off the hook. They say, well, it wasn't really her fault. She really, it's not the same person like the lawyer said. She had momentary psychosis. She took a couple of drugs she shouldn't have taken or whatever.

55:38That's my issue with those women who seem to conclude that women just cannot be responsible for the things that they do because they are not rational creatures and they're purely emotional, which is like that is the argument to exclude women from politics and public life. It's kind of ironic that it's the most feminist women who are making those claims right now when they're convenient for Lindsey Clancy. But that's really my issue. Yeah, I think the women who say she didn't even do it. I mean, those women are delusional and coping because not even the Lindsey Clancy defense team are used at. That's like that's just internet conspiracy podcast, true crime nonsense. It's more to the women who say, yeah, okay, all right, yeah, Lindsey Clancy did it, but she didn't really do it because she can't. And if she did do it, you know, when was the line one of these people said, women, they just, you know, heaven forbid that a mother makes a mistake that she just doesn't get it

56:38perfect. That women fail sometimes. Like, yeah, well, there's like burning the roast and there's murdering all your kids. Those are different degrees of failure. And if you do the former, I'm not going to throw it against the wall. But if you do the latter, you should probably be in prison or executed. Okay. And that happy conclusion.
