(Full Show) There are so many big issues in the 2024 election from the economy to the border and even foreign policy. One issue that was barely brought up at the debates was the culture war. Jesse Kelly argues that this culture war is EVERYTHING and it cannot be ignored. In this special, Jesse speaks with Mary Margaret Olohan of The Daily Wire, activist Robby Starbuck and Dave Brat to discuss how the right should be approaching the culture war in this critical election cycle.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
Election season is underway, and so people focus on issues,
and that's understandable, and issues matter. Inflation matters, immigration matter, taxes, spending,
these things mattered. All these things matter. I get all that.
But one thing you don't see a ton of anymore
is people talking about cultural things, culture war things during

(00:33):
presidential elections. And I understand why that's the case. People
get really nervous to bring that up. You don't want
to turn this guy off or that guy off.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Hey, just vote for me. I'll lower your taxes. But
the culture of.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Your country is the most important thing, it really genuinely is.
I think about it in this way. If we were
starting a country, we'll call it the Republic of Jesse.
Of course, think about the Republic of Jesse. What if thievery,
stealing was legal, encouraged and accepted.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Just if you wanted something, you took it. You walk
in a store, you want something, you grab it. You
walk off.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Your neighbor, maybe he has something really nice, like an
ice maker. You walk in his house, you grab it,
you take it home. But what kind of a country?
What would that do to a nation? To be horrible
for the country, the country itself, it didn't matter what
the tax rates were, the country would be a horrible,
horrible place culturally, it would be brodded, and vice versa.
What if you had a country that was packed full

(01:35):
of people who were extremely honest. You could leave a
million in cash sitting on a tabletop, come back a
week later, and still be sitting there because the people
were so unbelievably honest.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
What kind of a society would that be. You don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Anything about the tax rates and the laws or anything else,
but what kind of a country would that be. It's
a guarantee that country would be a good place to live,
isn't it. Now that brings us to where we are now.
The communists understand very very well that culture is everything.
You don't see these people out there screaming about tax

(02:11):
rates as often as you see them yelling and screaming
about being woke.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
You know, we have to stay woke, like everybody needs
to be woke. And you can talk about if you're
the wokest or woker, but just stay more woke than
less woke.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Yeah, I actually don't like that term.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
I know we've used that term. I've used that term
before many times on this show, But I actually don't
like woke because it really it softens what it is.
It's evil, it's demonic, it's cultural Marxism. It is destroying
so many people in this country. It's destroying men, it's
destroying women, it's destroying children.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
The things these.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
People will now talk about right out in the open, horrible,
demonic things these people.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Will talk about, blows me away. Just digest this.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
I want you to watch Dome talking about trannee surgery
for illegals and just just just think about that.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
When I was Attorney General, I learned that the California
Department of Corrections, which was a client of mine I
didn't get to choose.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
My clients, a client of the Attorney General, a.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Client of the Attorney General of the Office of Attorney General,
that they were standing in the way of surgery for prisoners.
And there was a specific case. And when I learned
about the case, I worked behind the scenes to not
only make sure that that transgender woman got the services
she was deserving. So it was not only about that case.

(03:50):
I made sure that they changed the policy in the
state of California so that every transgender inmate in the
prison system would have acts to the medical care that
they desire to need.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
And I believe it was not.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
Only I know it was historic in California, but I
believe actually it may have been one of the first,
if not the first, in the country where I pushed
for that policy in a Department of corrections.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
So we have a country now with a bunch of
dudes who believe they can chop off parts of their
body to become women. A bunch of women believe they
can chop off parts of their body to become men. Okay,
that in and of itself would be bad. It would
be bad if a politician at any level was quietly

(04:43):
encouraging any of this stuff. Quietly encouraging it at your
expense taxpayer expense is even more egree just that would
be even worse. But maybe the most jaw dropping thing
about all that is our politicians are comfortable now ragging
about that on camera and in person, bragging that we

(05:08):
physically mutilate human beings in this country and we pretend
we play make believe with them, as if they can
switch the sex they were born with. God, jeez, I
honestly remember this, Remember this, speaking of the trainee stuff,
Remember this from Trump.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
I remember he said this, we will not have men
playing in women's sports.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
That will end the maybea line.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Okay, that's a fine position to take. I'm glad he
has that position, But why does he have to have
that position? Think about that. Why is that a thing
that the Republican nominee for president even has to bring up?
Why is it a thing the dudes compete against chicks

(06:06):
in sports?

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Again? Woke? I don't think it's the right word for it.
This is evil. It's wrong. It's not just unfair to women.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
It's unfair to everybody what we've done in this country,
what we've done to people's minds. The culture war is
not some ridiculous side issue. The culture wars everything. These
people know what's everything too. Remember when Kamala Harris brought
up sending the Department of Justice as if it's a
pitbull after life after pro lifers.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
And on the issue of access to reproductive health care
for example, and again it's my background perhaps fighting for
justice through the courts, I am prepared to say that
for any state that passes a law that violates a
woman's constitutional right to reproductive health care, that our Department
of Justice will stop that law from going into effect.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
The Department of Justice doesn't have that authority. It's not
reproductive healthcare. That's a demonic, dishonest term. You're using to
kill an unborn baby. But these people view the government
as a tool for their sick cultural goals. They don't

(07:24):
get into office and just twist themselves in knots about
taxes here and spending there. They get into office and
they start tearing through this culture like a blow towards
through butter. And they take the most deranged freaks and
put them in positions of power in our government. Do
I need to remind you that this human being is

(07:44):
an Admiral.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
Hello, I'm Admiral Rachel Levine. Climate change is having a
disproportionate effect on the physical and mental health of black communities.
Black Americans are more likely than White Americans to live
in areas and housing that increase their susceptibility to climate
related health issues, and sixty five percent of Black Americans
report feeling anxious about climate changes impact. Through our Office

(08:10):
of Climate Change and Health Equity and the Office of
Environmental Justice, we're working with providers and community leaders to
identify innovative approaches that in power communities to address to
health consequences linked to climate change.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
We've played that for you before. But just take that in.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
A dude pretending to be a woman giving a little monologue,
a little speech about climate change which is also not real,
somehow affecting black people more than white people. Just the
levels of insanity and depravity we've gotten to in this country.
It's shocking when you sit back and take it all in.

(08:56):
Culture is not a ridiculous side issue called culture is everything.
I don't need to know anything about your form of
government or anything else.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
If you tell me.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
You have a country full of stable, nuclear families with
a dad, a mom in the home raising children, I
don't need to know anything else about your country. Your
country will be a successful country. If you have a
country full of mentally ill people who believe they can
become a woman by chopping their penis off, and that

(09:28):
climate change somehow affects black people more than white people,
you are in very very very deep doodoo. And that
is apparently where we are as a nation. Anyway, all
that may have made you uncomfortable, but I am right.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Mary.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Margaret Olahan joins us in a moment to discuss all
these things.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Hang on.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
If Donald Trump were to be re elected, he will
sign a national abortion ban. Understand, in his Project twenty
twenty five, there would be a national abortion a monitor
that would be monitoring your pregnancies, your miscarriages.

Speaker 6 (10:16):
There she goes again, it's a lie. I'm not signing
a ban, and there's no reason to sign a ban
because we've gotten what everybody wanted. Democrats, Republicans and everybody else,
and every legal scholar wanted it to be brought back
into the states, and the states are voting.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
You want to know, one of the most disheartening things
I remember politically, we had moved to Virginia for a year.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
I was still working in politics.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
This is after I lost two congressional runs, and so
when you're in kind of a purplish swing state, you
get these swing state ads, the ones they think are
really going to move the needles.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
So you know, Republicans would have run one on immigration
stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Virtually every ad this is in the Obama era, which
really every Democrat.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Ad was about abortion.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
It's all they care about, it's all they campaign on,
and apparently it works. Joining me now, Mary Margaret Olahan,
wonderful DC correspondent for the Great Daily Wire, Mary. People
don't understand this. I don't understand this level of depravity,
and I'm a terrible human being. But people will vote
just so they can murder their babies. And there's like

(11:24):
lots of them.

Speaker 7 (11:26):
Well, the Democrats have been very, very good at marketing abortion.
The way they market abortion to the American public is
you're going to lose your ability to make choices about
your body. You know, this is a women's issue. So
all women who care about their ability to have sexual
relationships or their ability to do what they desire should
be voting against Trump. That's the Democrat message on this.

(11:46):
And if you notice Jesse, they don't actually say the
word abortion very much. That's not it's kind of taboo.

Speaker 8 (11:51):
Now.

Speaker 7 (11:52):
What they say is reproductive rights. They'll talk a lot
about choice, a lot about danger. You know, they'll say
if former President Donald Tis Trump becomes president again, then
women will be in danger, women will die. And their
latest favorite anecdotal evidence is that women will die because
of quote unquote Trump abortion bands like Georgia's pro life law,

(12:13):
which by the way, is not a Trump abortion band.
It's a pro life law that Georgia, the state enacted
before Roby Wade was overturned, and they're using examples of
women who actually died because of complications with abortion pills,
not because of pro life laws. And they're using these
stories and manipulating these stories to try and claim that
pro life laws are endangering women, when at the end

(12:34):
of the day, I've spoken with pro life lawmakers, I've
spoken with women who run pregnancy centers, i have spoken
with activists on the ground, and what they tell me
is they want to protect women, they want to protect babies,
they want to protect young girls from traffickers. They're not
interested in hurting women. And they believe that groups like
Planned Parenthood actually don't care about women at all and
are more interested in furthering a leftist agenda.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Which, of course that is all their interest in.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
And the abortion pill itself is something I'm positive you.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
And I could go off on a long tangent on.
I don't think American people.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
I don't think the American people understand that fifty percent
of the abortions now take place in a woman's bathroom,
and she's the baby ends up in the toilet. It's
just the most demonic, freaking thing I've ever heard in
my life.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Mary, It's horrific.

Speaker 7 (13:20):
And you know, I see constantly media lying about these
abortion pills. You know, Caitlin Collins on CNN had the
audacity to repeatedly claim that these pills are safe, safer
than tail and all I believe she said, Well, I
don't think she's talking to any real activists on this issue,
or I should say, experts on this issue, because if
you know, if you talk to some of these obgyns

(13:42):
who are looking at this fairly, not from the perspective
of an abortion activist, they will tell you that these
pills are actually dangerous. I've spoken with women who described
to me laying on their bathroom floor suffering from very
serious complications alone as they deal with this abortion at
home of their own baby. It's traumatic. They have PTSD,

(14:02):
they have very severe side effects and after effects such
as depression, anxiety, remorse. You know, there's just a lot
that goes on here. And in the case of Amber
Thurman in Georgia, this woman died because of complications with
the abortion pill. But the way that Kamala Harris and
other pro abortion lawmakers are framing this is Amber died

(14:23):
because of a pro life law and they know that
they can get away with it because our mainstream media
has no interest in actually telling the truth on this topic.
Our mainstream media takes a story like Amber Thurman sees
the reality of it that these women died because of
abortion drugs and says, you know what, let's just say
they died because of a pro life law, and they're
allowed to get away with it. So there is massive

(14:45):
media manipulation on this topic. They do the bidding of
groups like Planned Parenthood, the National Abortion Rights Action League,
Emily's List.

Speaker 4 (14:53):
You name it.

Speaker 7 (14:54):
All of these groups have media style guides and they
literally tell outlets like Washington Posts Press, this is how
you talk about this issue. So for example, don't say heartbeat,
say fetal cardiac activity. Don't say late term abortions, say
abortions later in pregnancy. It's honestly or Welly and Jesse,
the way that our media just literally says, yep, we'll

(15:15):
do what you want us to do. Abortion activists, we
got this.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
I'm so glad you brought that up, Mary, because a
lot of people don't know the inside baseball of that,
and how how deceptive all their languages and that's why
they choose really all their language it doesn't matter the issue.
We're talking about abortion today, but all their language is
designed to deceive. We want to do something horrific, we
want young women butchering their children in mass but we

(15:42):
can't say that, so you have to call it reproductive
care and all that other gobbly good comedie crap you just.

Speaker 7 (15:47):
Mentioned exactly, And you know this is true of abortion,
It's also true of gender issues, pretty much any hot
button cultural topic right now. On the left, they create
style guys and they tell reporters how to talk about it.
I could go off for hours about that, because you know,
as a reporter myself, I see how important language is.
You know, when I'm writing about one of these topics,

(16:08):
if I'm not speaking the truth about it, it's very
easy for readers and you know, other Americans out there
to not understand what we're actually dealing with. But when
we're talking about abortion, we should be really clear. You know,
if we're talking about a quote unquote abortion band, we
should be saying exactly what that means. So if Georgia
has a law protecting babies with a heartbeat, we should
be saying that. We shouldn't be saying fetuses that have

(16:31):
cardiac activity. That's that's a weird scientific attempt at obscuring
what's going on here. The reality is that there's a
baby and that baby has a heartbeat, and maybe you
don't recognize that baby as a person, but we should
still be able to talk about it in realistic terms.
And so, you know, the left has really mastered the
language narrative. The right is kind of weaken up to it.
But they're behind the ball.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Yeah, well a shock, we're behind the ball.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
You know something that doesn't get a lot of play
is the collective hissy fit from the Justice Department. After
the overturning of Roe versus Wade. Roe versus Wade get overturned.
A bunch of demonic women who want to kill children,
decided they were going to rage about it, and they
started using the Face Act to throw old women in
federal prison for the rest of their lives.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Do I have that right?

Speaker 7 (17:18):
Pretty much? And I'm so glad you brought this up, Jesse,
because most people don't understand this properly. When Rebby Wade
was overturned, the Department of Justice specifically said we're going
to use this Face Act to prosecute pro lifers as
a response to the overturn of Revy Wade, and I'm
not exaggerating. A DOJA official literally said that, and they've
been doing it. They have put a number of pro

(17:39):
life activists behind bars. Why because these pro life activists
protested outside of abortion clinics or tried to ask women
or stop women from going into the abortion clinic to
get an abortion end the life of their baby.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
Meanwhile, all over the.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
Country there have been attacks on pregnancy centers and attacks
on Catholic churches undreds. I might add, Catholic Vote has
some really good trackers if you're interested in seeing the craziness.
You know, fire bombings, beheadings of statues of Jesus, graffiti
on pregnancy centers to say if abortions aren't safe, then
neither are you. All kinds of vandalism. And this Face

(18:17):
Act that the DOJ has been weaponizing specifically protects not
just abortion clinics, but also pregnancy centers and Catholic churches.
That's literally in the legislation, and yet the DOJ has
very little interest in prosecuting these cases as Face Act cases.
They have overwhelmingly prosecuted pro lifers, and I believe have

(18:39):
only actually prosecuted individuals with Face Act violations related to
pregnancy centers in two cases, and no Catholic churches. So
you know, there's a lot of critics on the right
and across the board that have told me that they
believe the DOJ is completely weaponized against pro lifers and
that there should be no surprise on our part when
we see that these Catholic churches and pregnancy centers are

(19:02):
largely left to fend for themselves because the DOJ doesn't
care about these things. The DOJ's own Christine Clark, has
said that she thinks pregnancy centers are dangerous and only
exists to deter and misinform women.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Well, in case we were wondering whether or not we're
the good guys in this fight, Mary Margaret, thank you
so much. I appreciate it. All right, we'll be back.

(19:41):
The education system. It is far and away the worst
thing the Communists took over in this country because the
entire country is filtered through the education system, a huge
reason everything is so far left as we filter every
American through the dirty jockstrap of the American education system.
And now we have a bunch of mo warons who
loved socialism joining me?

Speaker 2 (20:02):
Now he is the VP? Was it? VP of?

Speaker 1 (20:06):
This is something at Liberty University? Dave Brat keeps getting promoted.
I can't keep his titles in line.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Dave. You're basically running things at Liberty now right.

Speaker 8 (20:14):
I'm just gonna go with that, the invisible hands running
stuff and I'm helping out.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Yeah, all right, Dave.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Well, they didn't take over the education system by accident.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
I wish more Americans understood this.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
It wasn't like they just tripped and fell and took
over all the teachers' unions and the university system.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
They did it on purpose. Yeah, no, that's right.

Speaker 8 (20:39):
It goes way back, and I think Americans are kind
of catching on. You know, a couple of decades ago,
if you said we're in a spiritual war, people look
at your cross side. Now people you're saying, they go, well,
of course, Dave, that's what's happening, right. And so you know,
Harvard was founded as a Christian school. John Harvard came
from Oxford to Christian school. Their motto was truth for

(21:02):
Christ and Church at Harvard, right, and then the leftists
and the Marxists and the communists you know, who don't
have a worldview. They don't have a God. They think
they're God. That's the problem. And those forces have taken
over education because the Christians got weak, right, we compromised
and with our constitution we wanted to get have fair play,

(21:23):
so we said, we'll just do secular ethics, right, We'll
do Aristotle and talk about the common good. So then
we moved toward neutral language. We gave up our faith
in God. We took God out of the schools. That
was the first mistake. And then it proceeded from being
neutral to going Marxist. Right, not the old Marxists, you know,

(21:43):
capital versus labor, but the neo Marxist thing is the
march through the institutions. That's the common phrase. You can
go google that. That's all the modern neo Marxist guys.
And they knew capital versus labor wasn't working right, so
they separated everybody into different classes by race and gender
and every color of the flag. And now, just like

(22:07):
ESG and DEI, you're forced to say you agree with
that philosophy in worldview, or you get punished, and the
kids get punished and the parents get punished.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
And now it's.

Speaker 8 (22:20):
Reached the point that they can change the gender of
your kid within some school districts and they don't have
to tell the parents. And if you don't think that's
out of control, I don't know what to tell you.

Speaker 6 (22:32):
Dave.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
You said, the American people are catching on, and I
believe you're correct about this.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
COVID certainly helped a lot.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Now the question is, are is the education system going
to be forced to reform because parents are catching on,
they're more reluctant, reluctant to send one hundred thousand dollars
to some dirtball commed universities so it can ruin Aiden,
Jaden and Braden. Is this going to prompt reforms in
the education system?

Speaker 8 (23:01):
Not yet, We're just warming up. Christians have become very weak.
We have become gnostics in a way. A lot of
the Evangelical Church has spiritualized everything.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
That's called gnosticism.

Speaker 8 (23:16):
It's like, then, why did God create us with bodies
on earth? So we have a lot of soul searching
to do to return back, you know, back to the
Revolutionary war or Civil war period or World War two.
Even there was no question if your country was under attack,
you went and fought and killed people and there were
good guys, there were evil people, and we knew all this.

(23:36):
The Christians have just got we've gotten complacent also because
we've become rich.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
And so we don't want to judge.

Speaker 8 (23:43):
And then you know, we just had a CEO summit
at Liberty and you know CEOs often the fortune five hundred.
They've been captured, right, Robbie Starbuck has taken on this
stuff and having a huge success. But the left fight's dirty,
and the Christians have always fought, you know, love your
neighbors yourself, so that they'll fight a little bit, but

(24:04):
they won't fight.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Hard, and so there's very it's we're still.

Speaker 8 (24:08):
In a minority position. I'd say about ten twenty max.
Of parents within a school district are willing to take
a public position in public that hey, this is not okay,
and I'm putting my reputation out there, and we need
to get back to our founding logic, into the biblical
logic where we believe in good and neebele again and

(24:29):
it's worth whiting for or you're not going to have
freedom for the next generation.

Speaker 1 (24:34):
Dave, you mentioned many times you and I've had this
conversation that it is a spiritual war. And if you
can find any benefit to our culture of sodom and
gomor now, it is that. I think a lot of people,
even people who aren't your traditional church goers, they're waking
up to maybe not God, but they understand the devil
is real on you.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
When you're chopping children's.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Penises off and bragging about it on camera, you've reached
a point in sea society where demons are here.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah. No, that's right.

Speaker 8 (25:06):
And at the international level too. I had never been
laden on this morning on a show, and she characterized
it about as best as I ever. She said, it's
we've made leaders have made these globalists, have made a
Faustian bargain, a deal with the devil. And she said,

(25:26):
in order to obtaine just the sliver of power on earth.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
But the power is illusory.

Speaker 8 (25:31):
Right, as Americans, we think, Okay, these bad guys, they
just want riches in power and you know, control or whatever.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
That's bad enough. That's evil, right.

Speaker 8 (25:39):
But what she was saying, that Faustian bargain with the devil,
that's not a metaphor anymore, right. And it wasn't a
metaphor back when it was written, and people used to
believe there was that category of evil, right, So love
has been trivialized. Right now, there's a love sign out
in front of every mall right, big relative love, love, love,
I love my Subaru.

Speaker 2 (25:59):
All the left drive those right.

Speaker 8 (26:01):
And what they miss is that the same God that
offered his son in love also offered up the Ten
Commandments in six one hundred and thirteen moral laws to
the Jews. And he was also a god of wrath
that judges and everybody will meet their maker.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
And it's not just religious.

Speaker 8 (26:18):
Plato and Aristotle and all of them they had deposit
and after life and God because they knew there was
not justice on earth. Justice does not get done here,
and so a higher power that's reasonable even dictates there
will be judgment.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
And no one, you know, the preachers these dates, all
is love love love. No, it's a lot harder than that.

Speaker 8 (26:42):
Jesus died because we're sinners and there's justice, right, somebody
had to take on that sin of the world, right,
So God took it about himself. But that doesn't let
you off the hook. And so we got a lot
of catching.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
Up to do, certainly to do today.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
My brother as always appreciate you, yes, all right, speaking
of Robbie Starbuck. We're going to talk to Robbie Starbuck
about what he's been doing.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Next.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
What do communists understand? We talk about this all the time,
you and I. What do they understand? Two things? Only
two things. You can try to reason with your liberal
and pagy. You can try to bring her facts, see that.
You can do all these things. But communists only understand
fear and pain. We don't like talking like that. It
sounds too dark, but that's all they understand. They're religious zealots.

(27:49):
How would you deal with a radical jihadi? He only
understands fear and pain. You're not going to talk him
out of it. Well, how do we visit pain on
the communists in a legal way? Because that's what we
want to be? Legal, non violent, We want to win.
Robbie Starbuck is one of the people. He is killing
it out there in his own way. He's going after

(28:10):
these corporations. The second most damaging thing the Communists ever
took over in this country is.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
The corporate world. The first it's the education system. But
the corporate world, they take.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
All of our money and they use it against us,
against our own country, against our own values. And Robbie
sniff this out, and he's been dragging these companies out
into the public and now he's put the fear of God.
And I'm joining me now, my friend, filmmaker and activist
Robbie Starbuck. Robbie, this is your mission, not mine. I
don't have anything to do with it. So you tell

(28:41):
me what are you doing?

Speaker 4 (28:44):
Well, essentially, you know it's not lost on me.

Speaker 9 (28:47):
Yes, I've had a thesis for quite some time that
you know, we're facing a threat from New age communists,
and really the only thing that's different with them that
is is really important is that they no longer need
to seize the means of production to be a communist.
You know, that's sort of like what our grandparents had
in their head about communism, and it was a central

(29:08):
part of Marxism. However, these New age communists understood something
very important that doesn't look so good to average normal
people when the state comes in and seizes everything. Right,
So why would you take the optic hit of admitting
you're a communist and seizing the means of production if
you could just seize the minds of the people in

(29:29):
charge of production. So your corporate CEOs, your board of directors,
so on and so forth.

Speaker 4 (29:34):
And so for the past i'd say decade to.

Speaker 9 (29:37):
Fifteen years, there's been a concerted effort to fill those
boards and the c suite with as many people as
they can who are ideologically minded in the same direction
they are, or who can be controlled. And so when
you looked at this issue and why I've been very
successful getting companies to drop their crazy policies, you know,
from A to Z, it's really that nobody's taken this

(30:00):
on in a way that is an approach that has
like an actual battle plan, you know, and ours is
that we recognize this all was built up through accelerationism
after George Floyd.

Speaker 4 (30:11):
They used George Floyd.

Speaker 9 (30:12):
As sort of the excuse to bring a bunch of
this stuff in, and you had a lot of radicals
empowered in the process because CEOs either were along for
it because they're true believers, or they were afraid, deathly
afraid of being called racist, which is one of one
of the most insane things ever. I mean, anybody who
has that frame of mind I will never understand. But
essentially we understood that accelerationism brought us here. So how

(30:35):
do we move the Overton window back to sanity because
people are tired.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
You know.

Speaker 9 (30:39):
That's kind of the general mood I get in the
country as most people are just really tired of the bs,
They're tired of all the crazy, woke stuff.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
So we've had that exhaustion set in.

Speaker 9 (30:48):
So there's a lot of public support for what we're doing,
and we realized if we want this to be successful,
we need to target the companies that primarily depend on
conservative consumers first, because we're such a sizeable cross section
of their customers that they can't survive without us. And
bud Light already put a lot of fear into them
because they saw, oh, these people will use their wallets
as a weapon.

Speaker 4 (31:09):
And that was just a starting point, you know.

Speaker 9 (31:11):
So we identified the companies kind off the bat that
are the ones that we could really move, you know,
and so we did that.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
We started with Tractor Supply.

Speaker 9 (31:18):
Got them to drop all their crazy policies, then John Deere,
and then this was a very important one because three
is where you go from oh that's cool, that's you know,
maybe kind of a happy circumstance of a lot of
different accidents happening and maybe this company just you know,
decided to do the right thing. But when you get
to three, it's now a pattern, right, and psychologically that

(31:39):
was a very important company, Harley Davidson that we chose
to be number three because they had a true believer
as CEO. So it was going to be a David
versu live battle between the true believer and the people
you know, myself and sort of all the people that
I represent through what we're doing. And I think they
wanted to dig their heels in, but they only lasted
three weeks because the damage was a men. We went

(32:00):
at them with the fire and vigor that our politicians
should be going after every issue in this country. We
were relentless in every step, and so they couldn't take
the barrage. And ultimately what happened is, you know, we
timed this around the Sturgis event, and Sturgis is the
largest biker event in the country, but maybe the world.
And so when Sturgis came around, you have ninety percent

(32:22):
of these writers riding Harley's and they refused to go
to the Harley tents, and so Harley's Tents were a
ghost town. It was such an embarrassment that Bloomberg reported
that Harley packed up two days early and went home.
You had Harley writers taking their emblems off and turning
them in. It was just pure insanity. And at the
same time, you had videos going viral online that we
were putting out, but also that biker influencers were putting out,

(32:45):
including some who blew up their Harley Davidson's as a
statement piece against the CEO, saying that they were done
with the brand after you know, decades and decades with them.
So that was an important point, that inflection point of
them groveling and changing it.

Speaker 4 (33:00):
Really it told a lot.

Speaker 9 (33:02):
Of other corporate executives that they did not want to
go through this same thing. And so something interesting started
to happen. These CEOs started flipping on their policies without
us ever releasing a video. We just had to reach
out to them and say, hey, we're working on an investigation.

Speaker 4 (33:17):
Here's what we found.

Speaker 9 (33:18):
We want to give you the opportunity to correct anything
that's wrong. And then those companies would turn right around
and they would cut their policies in order to get
us to not put out the negative video. And for us,
it's not like a blackmail thing. It's just like, hey,
we're going to put out this story unless we're wrong
and there's a better story about you guys changing.

Speaker 4 (33:37):
So just let us know.

Speaker 9 (33:38):
That's been amazingly effective. We've gotten Jack Daniels and their
parent company to drop their policies lows forward. Just last
week on Friday, Caterpillar cores were Indian Motorcycle. I mean,
we're going down such a list now, we're well over
ten that I'm starting to forget names of some that
we flipped.

Speaker 4 (33:56):
So that's a good sign.

Speaker 9 (33:57):
We're going to continue this and it's going to be
one by one until we achieve some semblance of sanity
in corporate America.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
Robbie, I love what you're doing for a variety of reasons,
but man, it is it just hits you when you
list the way you just listed.

Speaker 2 (34:14):
Them right there.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
When you think about cat Caterpillar, I've been in the
Caterpillar plant in Peoria, Illinois on a frigging machine myself.
Caterpillar Tractors, supply Harley. These are companies that are supposedly
sharing our values, and my point is there are people
who've been taking our money and using it against us
for years. It was really the ultimate takeover by the commis.

Speaker 9 (34:39):
Yeah, no, I mean it was right under our noses.
And the truth is this goes back to kind of
a larger issue right because you talk about education being
the worst thing that it has sort of been taken
by the left. The reality is all of these things
happened because of a few things. Number one, weakness and cowardice,
and men is a virus that must be eradicated.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
We have way too many men who don't want.

Speaker 9 (35:02):
To get political quote unquote, and in reality, it's just
like I don't want to be uncomfortable.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (35:07):
I don't know where these guys came from, who they
were raised by, but it's time to get uncomfortable. If
people think I enjoy every aspect of what I'm doing,
I don't. But you have to do things that will
make you maybe unpopular in certain circles because it's important
to tell the truth and do the right thing at
this time because we could lose our damn country if
we don't. And beyond that, there's another thing. It's bothered

(35:31):
me for a long time now. I think the biggest
mistake the right has ever made ever in my lifetime
at least, is the idea of adopting, embracing and celebrating
being a silent majority.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
It is the dumbest thing you can be a part of.

Speaker 9 (35:45):
I don't want to be a part of a silent majority,
because silent majorities allow very loud, crazy groups of people
to run your country. It allows them to dictate policy,
it allows them to choose what happens in your kids' schools.
A silent majority is for fool. We need to speak up.
And I think more people are becoming aware of that
reality and they don't want to be part of a

(36:05):
silent majority. They don't want to be this silent person
who allows crazy people to dictate their life. So my
hope is that this election can be one that marks
the end of the silent majority and marks the beginning
of a very loud majority who makes it clear what
direction they want their country to run in, and that
they will hold politicians and executives accountable if they step

(36:27):
out of line.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
That's my hope, my dream.

Speaker 9 (36:29):
You know, I think most people in my position, where
you know, my family fled Cuba and they lost everything
to communism. I always urge people who are like, maybe
maybe this guy is just kind of seeing things through
you know, his own lens, his own biases. Go talk
to anybody whose family has survived communism, and ask them
where they think this country's at right now. Ask them,

(36:51):
you're going to get the same answers you're getting from me.
All the signs are there, every single one is there.
Our country is principally trying to be taken over by
radical leftists who want to create a new form of communism.
And if you doubt that, you're just not paying attention.
If you think that, I'm not being serious when I
say they are seeking to control the minds of the executives,

(37:11):
who control production, who control big business. Just look at
big Tech. They're a great example. They act as an
arm of the state, for the ruling party, for the Democrats.
That's a look into the future what they want in
every segment of business.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
Robbie.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
One thing that I have noticed in following your work
and what you're doing, and I love.

Speaker 2 (37:32):
This is the Human Rights Campaign.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
How they always seem to be involved with these corporations.
This is not an organization the norms and Normas.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
Even know about. They don't know who they are.

Speaker 1 (37:45):
They have no idea how powerful the HRC is, but
they are extremely powerful, and they are involved in.

Speaker 2 (37:53):
Corporate America, who are they.

Speaker 9 (37:56):
The HRC essentially is a radical leftist group that seeks
to get Republicans out of politics. I mean, that's the
best way I could put it. It's really funny. I
hate calling them the Human Rights Campaign because there's nothing
about them that.

Speaker 4 (38:07):
Has to do with human rights.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
It's like, you know, introducing a.

Speaker 9 (38:09):
Bill in Congress called the Vote Yes If You Love
Puppies Act, and then inside it mandates that you slaughter
every puppy in America. In reality, the Human Rights Campaign
is just an activist group that hates Republicans. Okay, they
hate conservative policy, and they're advocating for the furthest left,
most insane version of America you could possibly imagine.

Speaker 4 (38:27):
And so you have to wonder how did it become
the norm.

Speaker 9 (38:30):
The corporations are giving them millions and millions of dollars
and subscribing to this CI Index score, which is basically
it's a social credit system.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
Okay, so Corporate.

Speaker 9 (38:39):
Quality Index, and in it you have to do certain
things to get one hundred percent score. Some of those
things you have to do is provide coverage and your
healthcare plan to get people sex changes. And I'm not
just talking about the employees keep in mind, there's not
an exclusion for children, so that children can get their
puberty blockers and they can get their hormone treatments, and
God for even in the places where they allow those

(39:03):
I hate calling them surgeries, really mutilations. You know, this
is stuff that is underneath that one hundred score at
a company that they then tout. And the thing is,
nobody's ever held them accountable for touting these scores. Nobody's
ever held them accountable for working with a group and
giving them millions of dollars whose president just set at
a gala that Trump hates America and framed Republicans is

(39:24):
an existential threat to the country. Okay, they would never
give a dime to a right wing group who was
doing the opposite version of what the HRC does. That
point has been one that executives I think are listening
to and they realize looks pretty extreme and radical. So
I think we're going to continue to see corporations back
away from the HRC, as they should, because they're essentially

(39:46):
an extremist group on the far left, and there's no
reason for corporations to be submitting themselves to the humiliation
ritual that you essentially have to submit yourself to get
a one hundred percent score through them, and it does
them precisely want nothing.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
It's a liability.

Speaker 9 (40:01):
There's nobody who goes to a company and goes, oh,
I wonder what their HRC score is the only reason
people are wondering that now at all is because they
want to see if the company is giving money or
participating in this, because they don't want to do business
with them.

Speaker 4 (40:14):
If they are.

Speaker 9 (40:14):
There is no positive upside to these behaviors and actions
the Corporate America has taken. They just needed to be
taken to task for it. And so that's what we're doing.
We have a mission in front of us. We are
going to take these companies to task, one by one
if necessary, to eliminate these far left extremist groups that
they're supporting.

Speaker 1 (40:34):
Robbie really quickly, how do people if there is a
whistleblower out there at a major corporation and they want
to send in a tip or some info, how do
they do that?

Speaker 9 (40:43):
They can go to Robbistarbuck dot com. It's Robbie with
the Y by the way, so Robby Starbuck dot com
slash DEI and there's a tips page where you can
give us a tip about what's going on and send
us evidence.

Speaker 4 (40:55):
Of what's going on.

Speaker 9 (40:56):
And we are blessed to have so many of those
people who were giving us tips that are helping us
to really bring sanity back to corporate America.

Speaker 4 (41:04):
That's our goal. We're not going to stop.

Speaker 9 (41:06):
We're not going to just sit back and let communism
happen to our country. We're gonna fight, and I think
that's what everybody has to have in their heart.

Speaker 4 (41:14):
We've got to fight for this country and everything we do.

Speaker 9 (41:16):
We've got to stand up, use our voices, use every
legal means we can to win this country back.

Speaker 4 (41:22):
We need a sane country again.

Speaker 9 (41:24):
And to get a sane country, we need sane schools,
we need sane corporations. We just need sanity back. And
that's going to take all of us doing our.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
Part, no doubt. Robbie, you're the man. Thank you, my
brother for what you do all right over back. We

(41:54):
have to win in November, and it's not just defeating
Kamala Harris. Remember that we have a thousand battles to
fight and we're gonna have a thousand more next year.
These are school board races, state House, Senate, House of Representative.
There are so many battles to fight. We cannot be disheartened,

(42:15):
and we can't be overconfident if we like the looks
of the pools.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
The stakes are high.

Speaker 1 (42:21):
And like I've said before, if the presidential race doesn't
go our way, and I hope it will, I think
it will. But if it doesn't go our way, we're
not done yet. Victory is so many years away and
so many battles away. Victory or defeat, we have to
fall in love with the fight and the process.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
All Right, we can defeat these people. We'll do it again.
