Is Kanye West Anti-Semitic? | Ep. 21

Happy Monday, everybody. I hope everybody had a good weekend. I was having a great weekend until my phone exploded with text messages, everybody asking the same question. Is Kanye West anti-Semitic? That is the question of the day because it was the question that ruined my Saturday. Plus, later on, I will be telling you why you need to cancel your PayPal account. All that and more today on Candace Owens. Okay, so who is the cheapest person that you know? I know that wasn't the question of the day, but I'm asking you that in earnest because I can give you the answer. The cheapest person in my life and the cheapest person that I have ever met is my husband. Let me tell you. This is a man that counts pennies like you wouldn't believe. In fact, he takes pride in it. He says often, if you keep an eye on the pennies, then the pounds will add themselves. Obviously, he's English, so it's like saying if you keep your eyes on the pennies, you count the pennies, then you will accrue a bunch of dollars in the future. And I have to say, he's kind of right. Another extremely close second cheap person would be my assistant, Savannah. I mean, she is the kind of person who has waited in line for a refund on lettuce at Chipotle. You don't know what that means? I don't know what that means, but if something is not right, she will get a refund, even if that refund is 10 cents. She's gonna go and she's gonna pursue it. I've never met people that are that cheap. But if you had asked me this question before Savannah was in my life and before I met and married my husband, I would have told you that the cheapest person in my life was my girlfriend, Denise. She was in my wedding. I was in her wedding. We're very close. We've been friends our entire lives. And Denise happens to be Jewish. Oh, wow. Did I just say that a Jewish person in my life was cheap? Well, clearly that is anti-Semitic because it wasn't problematic, of course, a few paces ago when I said my husband, who was about Catholic, is cheap. It wasn't problematic when I said Savannah, who is a Protestant, is cheap. But God forbid, God forbid you say that a Jewish person is cheap, even if it's factually true, the entire world implodes. You know what I'm talking about. You know where I'm going with this. When I received a text message, the first one that asked me, is Kanye West anti-Semitic? And then came in another text message, another text message, somebody screenshot and sent me what Kanye West said and goes, is this real, is this real? My first instinct was to go, what did he actually say? It wasn't to go, oh my gosh, Kanye West hates Jewish people. I know that's not true, obviously, because I'm friends with him and I am friends with his Jewish friends. My instinct was to go, what did he say that is being misconstrued? Now, why would my instinct be to believe that he was being taken out of context or misconstrued? Well, maybe because I'm Candace Owens and that actually happened to me. It was actually one of the most horrific times throughout my career. Here's the story and I'm going to remind you because you know that it culminated in me appearing in front of Congress and actually having a congressman, Ted Lieu, smear me as anti-Semitic. So I went on a flight. I was traveling with my buddy, Charlie Kirk, and we went to London and I was giving a long talk and we were talking about global affairs, talking about socialism, talking about eventual communism, and talking about just the state of things all across the world throughout the Trump era. And somebody in the audience rose their hand and they asked a question about the word nationalism, something that I think we need to embrace. We need to take care of our nation first. That is really what America first means, right? We need to make sure Americans are being taken care of before we decide that we need to fix what's going on in Ukraine. Pretty simple concept. And a woman or a man raised his hand and asked me a question. Candace, we talk about nationalism, but how can we say nationalism when people have such a dark view of that word? It's become a dirty word. Even though we know what it means, we can't just go out and say we're nationalists. And I responded to her by saying in earnest for whatever reason, nationalism has become a bad word is because people wrongly attribute it to Hitler. And Hitler clearly wasn't a nationalist, right? I mean, obviously, you're not a nationalist if you're invading the country next to you. You're not a nationalist. You don't care about the people in your nation if you're killing the Jews in your nation, right? That doesn't make any sense. Okay, said that, had a nice talk. The press was there. Nobody covered it. Months later, BuzzFeed unearths this clip, strips out the question that was asked of me, and just has me saying, oh, well, you know, if Hitler was a nationalist and just wanted to stay in Germany, that would have been fine, right? So now it sounds suddenly like I'm defending Hitler. And this clip made its way around the world. It was the first really global effort to cancel Candace Owens, completely out of context. Conservative organizations, by the way, jumped on board. It was conservative organizations that were reporting on this, calling me anti-Semitic, me. Candace Owens, anti-Semitic. I dated a Jewish man, almost married a Jewish man, okay? And I was being called anti-Semitic, and nobody even thought to reach out and say, hey, Candace, what did you actually mean? Nobody even thought to pursue the full clip. In fact, as I said earlier, it really culminated at that moment when I had to testify in front of Congress, when a congressman decided that I didn't even deserve to be in the room because I was so anti-Semitic. Let me remind you, here's Ted Lieu. In congressional hearings, the minority party gets to select its own witnesses. And of all the people that Republicans could have selected, they picked Candace Owens. I don't know Ms. Owens. I'm not gonna characterize her. I'm gonna let her own words do the talking. So I'm gonna play for you the first 30 seconds of a statement she made about Adolf Hitler. I agree. I actually don't have any problems at all with the word nationalism. I think that it gets, the definition gets poisoned by leaders that actually want globalism. Globalism is what I don't want. So when you think about, whenever we say nationalism, the first thing people think about, at least in America, is Hitler. You know, he was a national socialist. But if Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well, okay, fine. Problem is that he wanted, he had dreams outside of Germany. He wanted to globalize. He wanted everybody to be German, everybody to be speaking German. All right, so my first question is to Ms. Herschenhoff. Ms. Owens said, quote, if Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well, okay, fine. The problem is that he wanted, he had dreams outside of Germany. So when people try to legitimize Adolf Hitler, does that feed into white nationalist ideology? It does, Mr. Liu. I know that Ms. Owens distanced herself from those comments later, but we expressed great concern over the original comments. Great, thank you. Thank you. Ms. Owens, Ms. Owens, I'm sorry, we just started recording. Would you like time to respond to that? Yes, I think it's pretty apparent that Mr. Liu believes that black people are stupid and will not pursue the full clip in its entirety. He purposely presented an extract, an extracted clip. Witness will suspend for a moment. It is not proper to refer disparagingly to a member of the committee. The witness will not do that again. Witness may continue. Sure, even though I was called despicable. Witness may not refer to a member of the committee as stupid. I didn't refer to him as stupid. That's not what I said. That's not what I said at all. You didn't listen to what I said. May I continue? Please. As I said, he is assuming that black people will not go pursue the full two-hour clip, and he purposefully extracted, he cut off, and you didn't hear the question that was asked of me. He's trying to present as if I was launching a defense of Hitler in Germany, when in fact, the question that was asked of me was pertaining to whether or not I believed that Hitler was a, whether or not I believed in nationalism and that nationalism was bad, and what I responded to was that I do not believe that we should be characterizing Hitler as a nationalist. He was a homicidal, psychopathic maniac that killed his own people. A nationalist would not kill their own people. That is exactly what I was referring to in the clip, and he purposely wanted to give you a cut-up similar to what they do to Donald Trump to create a different narrative. That was unbelievably dishonest, and he did not allow me to respond to it, which is worrisome, and to tell you a lot about where people are today in terms of trying to drum up narratives. By the way, I would like to also add that I work for Prager University, which is run by an Orthodox Jew, and a single Democrat showed up to the embassy opening in Jerusalem. I sat on a plane for 18 hours to make sure that I was there. I'm deeply offended by the insinuation of revealing that clip without the question that was asked of me. Yep, I'm still deeply offended. And by the way, I don't know who that was that said, oh, she distanced herself from his comments. No, I didn't. I said what I meant. Adolf Hitler was not a nationalist. But of course, we know how the news operates, and they took me out of context to try to cancel Candace Owens for being anti-Semitic during the time that I was actually working for Prager University. Prager University, obviously the namesake being Dennis Prager. Dennis Prager is Jewish, openly Jewish. We've talked about his faith. He writes extensively about his faith, and yet they went for this moment, left and right combined, because I don't know, I guess I don't have a right to discuss whether or not Adolf Hitler was a nationalist, which I still believe to be untrue. So you can imagine that since going through this, since having to live this out, having to live out somebody take my words and construe meaning that was never there. In fact, in the clip, I never even said the word Jewish. Never even said the word Jewish. You can imagine how I feel now when I see people piling on somebody, and they say, oh, this person's anti-Semitic. They said something. My instinct, having lived it, is to say, what did this person actually say? What is the full clip? So the headline on Newsweek is, Kanye West's comments on Jews are quote-unquote horrifying, says an anti-Semitism group. Don't worry, plenty of anti-Semitism groups spoke out against me, including that woman that was sitting there, right? So that doesn't hold any weight for me. I need to actually see what he said. And in this article, first and foremost, I don't know why it's relevant, but they include a post of Kanye West that he posted on Instagram, and it says he captioned the post, Jesus is Jew. Okay, okay, Jesus was a Jew. So I don't know what that was supposed to add to their thesis here that Kanye West is anti-Semitic. I don't know if perhaps this article was written by an atheist, but yes, Jesus Christ was in fact a Jew. Moving on from that, they speak about Kanye's interview with Tucker Carlson, in which he talks about his friend, Jared Kushner. The conversation, he says, that he was upset to find out, while having dinner with Josh Kushner and Jared Kushner, that they owned a percentage of Skims. Skims is Kim Kardashian's lingerie line, undergarment line that Kanye launched with and for her, right? And he did not know, he found out after the fact, that his friends, Josh, and being Josh and Jared Kushner, owned a bigger percentage than he owned, and he was hurt by that. Let's listen to Kanye in his own words, in full context, on Tucker Carlson. So when I think about all of these things that Jared somehow doesn't get enough credit for, with his work, and what is it, his work in Israel, or his work in, what is this? You know where he made these peace treaties? Where was that, do you know the facts on this right here? So I'm like. Well, I think that was between Israel and some of the Arab nations. I just think it was to make money. I don't know, is that too heavy handed to put on this platform? No, that's your opinion. We're not in the censorship business. Okay, thank you. And I just think that that's what they're about, is making money. I don't think that they have the ability to make anything on their own. I think they were born into money, and for me, as a maverick, and a talent, and a person that's been, you know, beat, kicked, lost everything, said to have lost my mind, went from pull myself up by my, my boots don't have straps on them, but I say pull myself up from my boots, to becoming a multi-billionaire. That gets, that gets, you know, the price every year, my network goes down every year on Forbes, they just keep on slowly just taking it down every year. It's like really a weird thing. But as a person that has really built something from nothing, when I sit across the table from a Josh Kushner, and he just feels so entitled to that idea, and this person's never brought anything of value other than so-called being a good venture capitalist, I have a major, I have a major issue with that. And it makes me feel like they weren't serving my boy, Trump, the way we could have, because, you know, Trump wanted nothing but the best for this country. So when I watched this on Tucker, what I heard, and I heard this directly from Kanye's mouth, because I spoke to him after this segment on Tucker, what I heard even during that segment, though, is a person that is hurt by his friends, people that he thought were his friends, that he was shocked to find out owned a percentage of a company. Now, if you're friends with someone, you would assume they would tell you that, right? Right off the bat, but he feels that he was somehow cut out, cut out of something that was his creative product, right? Now, that is not to assign blame to Jared and Josh. I am also very friendly with Jared Kushner. That is certainly not to say they did anything wrong, but you can understand that Kanye is saying that he is hurt by this, and now he's wondering what their motives are, even in their friendship, right? I think all that's fair. You can question your friend's motives. Not once did he mention the fact that Jared and Josh were Jewish. So how on earth is this being included as something that was anti-Semitic? Are you no longer allowed to discuss Jared Kushner and what his, perhaps, his reasons and his motives behind doing the deal in the Middle East are? In fact, the New York Times covered, after he left the White House, he started Affinity Partners, Jared Kushner, and it is a, they received $2 billion in investment via a fund that was led by the Saudi Crown Prince. So that's a lot of money. $2 billion went into the fund at Affinity Partners, which is controlled by Jared Kushner, and it came from the Saudi Prince. Okay, so that's the Middle East. So if somebody wants to ask the question whether or not he used his influence because he struck up this deal, the Abraham Accords, and whether or not, because of that, he met some people and made some connections and then was able to get some money for his fund, that's a fair question to ask. It's a fair question to ask, by the way, when we talk about the wheeling and dealing that Hunter Biden did in Ukraine when his father was the Vice President of the United States. Does it matter that Hunter Biden is a quote-unquote Catholic? It is a fair question to ask about Nancy Pelosi's husband and his track record as a trader, the incredible amount of money that they seem to make. Clearly, we think that there's some inside trading going on there. We ask these questions, not because Nancy Pelosi is a Catholic. I don't care if she's a Catholic. I don't care that Jared Kushner is Jewish. I don't care that Kanye West is a Christian, and none of these things mean anything. You are allowed to ask questions about how people are doing deals, period. It is such an insult to people's intelligence to continually use isms. Oh, it's because you're anti-Semitic. If you even ask a question, you're anti-Catholic. How dare you question Nancy Pelosi? Oh, you must hate black people. You know what? Newsweek, who wrote this article, Emma Mayer, you must hate black people. How dare you critique Kanye West, a black man, a black billionaire? Obviously, you don't want Kanye West to be successful. This is a game that is played by idiots, and the only people that accept this game and perpetuate this game are other idiots. You have a right to ask questions, and you have a right to question someone's motive irrespective of their race, their gender, their background, certainly their religion. I don't care. I don't care if you pray on the rosary. I don't care if you have a Star of David around your neck. If I have a criticism that I would like to launch about you or that I would like to say, I'm gonna say it. Hence me doing a documentary that I am releasing this week regarding Black Lives Matter. It's not because I hate black people. I know that's, she must hate black people. That's why she's doing it. No, I'm doing it because I think something shady went on. Kanye said this about Jared Kushner because he thinks that something shady went on in their friendship. He is questioning motives. He is allowed to do that. But of course, it was the tweet that he sent that really got people motivated. So let's read that tweet. Kanye West wrote and then subsequently had his Twitter locked when he said, I'm a bit sleepy tonight, but when I wake up, I'm going death con three on Jewish people. The funny thing is I actually can't be antisemitic because black people are actually Jew also. You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone who opposes your agenda. That was the tweets. And people subsequently demanded that the tweet be taken down for antisemitism. Now, if you are an honest person, you did not think this tweet was antisemitic. You did not think that he wrote this tweet because he hates or wants to genocide Jewish people. This does not represent the beginning of the Holocaust. That's if you're an honest person, you will admit that. If you're an honest person, when you read this tweet, you had no idea what the hell he was talking about. I had no idea when I read this tweet, what the hell he was talking about. This tweet inspired questions, not answers. First and foremost, what is death con three? Did he mean death con three, which would be a military defense position, not an offense for those of you that are offended, a military defense position? Is he tweeting this because he's reading the Newsweek headline, calling him an antisemitic? Is he angry because he can't believe that he's not free to talk about people in his life who happen to be Jewish, right, without being accused of antisemitism? Is he saying, I'm not gonna shut up and I'm gonna keep tweeting and I'm gonna keep calling these people out, referring to his friends that he feels slighted by? Is he talking about Jerry Kushner and Josh Kushner? If you're a liar, you'll say, no, I was scared, Candace. I actually thought that Kanye West was going to launch a military strike in Israel because that's the reaction. Like when I woke up and I looked at the headlines, the reaction was like Kanye West had gotten together a military strike and it was going to go forward in the morning time in Israel. That was the reaction that was met with this tweet. Now, once again, I wanna make this very clear. This is not a defensivist tweet. This is an open question, which never seems to happen anymore. It's like, you cannot even say the word Jewish without people getting upset in the same way that you're not allowed to say black anymore in the same way that if you talk about the struggles of black Americans and you talk about the people in black America, like Patrisse Cullors, the founder of Black Lives Matter, who are harnessing emotions to enrich their pockets, right, who are looking at historical pain and trying to harness it to line their own pockets. I guess it's okay for me to say that because Patrisse is not Jewish, right? If I, God forbid, if Patrisse, by the way, converts Judaism, I'm in big trouble because I just made the most anti-Semitic comment I could have possibly made by suggesting that she used Black Lives Matter as a vehicle to line her own pockets, which I believe. But fortunately, she's not Jewish. So we're allowed to have an open discussion about that. We need to stop this nonsense. We are smarter than this. Stop telling people to be emotional when they should demand answers from Kanye for what he said. Stop calling people names. It's a toddler game. Everybody's in preschool. You're anti-Semitic, you're racist, you're sexist, you're misogynist. Stop it. Be smarter, be better, and ask Kanye to explain what he said. And that's all I have to say about that.

So you are not even going to believe this, but you should believe it because it's TikTok. TikTok has banned users from even searching for the term white lives matter, listing the phrase as being associated with hateful behavior. When searching for videos or profiles that contain the term white lives matter, you're going to be met with a message which states, quote, no results found. This phrase may be associated with hateful behavior. TikTok is committed to keeping our community safe and working to prevent the spread of hate. For more information, we invite you to review our community guidelines, end quote. What are the community guidelines? Well, you can definitely use the hashtag black lives matter. You can definitely use the hashtag Asian lives matter. You could definitely use the hashtag Latino lives matter. All of that is fine, but if you use white lives matter, it's problematic, obviously, because being white is problematic in 2022. Actually, since a little bit earlier, being white kind of became problematic starting in, I would say, maybe 2012, maybe 2008 when we elected Barack Obama. Suddenly, we saw this shift and it wasn't like we were after equality. We just actually wanted to make white people that never had slaves and white people that weren't behind the segregating policies that we once had in this country under Jim Crow, we wanted to make them suffer. And so we've been doing that for a while and TikTok has taken a strong stance against this because TikTok is owned by China who keeps Muslims in concentration camps. That's totally fine, but what they really care about is the hashtag white lives matter. By the way, you can, if you want to on TikTok, put up your child talking about their puberty blockers as we have shown on the show. Also, if you want to, you can join a community for cutting yourself on TikTok as we've shown on the show. There are teenagers who are cutting themselves and they join the groups and they're becoming pseudo-trans, they're becoming pseudo-cutters, and they're showing signs of various disorders that are not actually the real disorders, right? Because they're just trying to find a community and they want to belong to an online community. Yeah, TikTok fosters that environment. If you are a guy and you put on a dress and you frolic through the woods and say, mm, I'm a woman, TikTok will make sure that you get tons of followers. Really, what TikTok is after is furthering divisive rhetoric. They are after furthering the divide of the American people and what better way to do that than by outright, basically having a policy that says white lives don't matter. That's what the TikTok policy is. And I implore you, if you are listening to this show, I say it over and over again, this is without question the most harmful app. It is the most obvious. It is so obvious what China is trying to do, which is weaken the American people. It is trying to weaken the unity that we have. And it is also after your children, molding minds, molding minds to hate white people in this regard, molding minds to think that there are no genders, molding minds to have a short attention span. It is very easy for you to, within your own household, say TikTok will not be allowed. That is a rule in my household. I'm a little more extreme. My kids are not gonna be allowed to have social media full stop until they're old enough. But this is what we have to do. These little acts of protests start within our own household. So please, please, if you have children that are on TikTok, just force them to delete the app. Be the bad parent, don't be their friend. Say, you know what, it's cool, because I'm actually not your best friend. I'm your mom, I'm your dad, I'm your grandma, I'm your grandpa. Do something about it today. Something else you can do, and that you should do immediately, in case you missed this story, I was covering it on my Facebook and on my Instagram, and I hope that you all have seen it. Delete PayPal. Yeah, I remember that app, and it's so funny because there were so many conservatives that were originally behind that app, or people that are at least more agnostic, who we know don't hate conservatives. Elon Musk is one of the original founders of PayPal. Peter Thiel, one of the original founders of PayPal. None of them involved. I know Peter Thiel, at least, is not involved at all anymore. Well, slowly and slowly, PayPal has been putting out policies that are left-leaning. So I stopped using it, but kept money in it about a year ago, when it got a little too lefty, their privacy policy, and the rights that they were giving themselves to decide what was hateful conduct. In fact, I'm not going to mention who the conservative country star is, but they were selling some T-shirts that were funny and about Biden, and PayPal actually shut down their account and said that they weren't allowed to collect any funds because you're not allowed to be anti-Biden. Now, you can make anything you want that's anti-Trump on PayPal, but anything that was anti-Biden, they suddenly said, no, not allowed. So it became pretty extreme when PayPal came out with a policy that they were going to fine users $2,500 for quote-unquote misinformation. Misinformation, everybody's favorite buzzword. Basically, if you disagree with us and we don't like your information, we're going to fine you $2,500. That's what they meant. The penalties posted on PayPal's website would have been issued to users who promoted misinformation or quote, present a risk to users' safety or well-being. So by the way, just so you know how you can do that, if you want to present a risk to somebody's well-being, just say only women can give birth or say men are men and women are women. Now that is considered hateful conduct. Now that is considered to threatening the well-being of somebody's precious mental state. So they were going to put that policy into effect on November 3rd, and then they were met with severe backlash. In fact, over the weekend, you may have seen that it was trending to cancel PayPal. Actually, hashtag bankrupt PayPal was trending and people were posting that they were leaving PayPal and showing that they had shut down their accounts, which is what we should do. We need to begin a conservative economy. We have to stop giving our money to people that hate us. And it's very clear if the banks are coming in and coming in and they're starting to say, you can't bank here because we don't like your viewpoints. That's scary. We saw that even during the trucker protests in Canada. We actually saw banks saying they were going to freeze assets because God forbid you rightfully protest your government. God forbid you were an American, you wanted to send money to a Canadian, they wouldn't have received it. That impacts us. You're not allowed to send money to support a protest that you believe in. That's a very scary thing to consider that is happening in the West. So PayPal quickly walked back when they saw this stuff trending and saw so many people that were saying goodbye. And they gave this quote. An AUP notice recently went out in error that included incorrect information. Oh, that's funny. So are they going to find themselves $2,500? So it seems like it was incorrect information. Anyways, it goes on and they said, PayPal is not finding people for misinformation. This language was never intended to be inserted in our policy. Show of hands if you actually believe that they put this language in there by accident. Oh, nobody has their hands up. Good, means nobody here is stupid. Clearly, this would have had to go through a legal rounds about a million times, right? This wasn't like some low-level employee just wrote this in the policy and got away with it. This is PayPal, okay? They have the means to hire the best lawyers to work on the language for months. You know, lawyers always have a lawyer. They gotta run up their fees, right? So this was worked on, looked at, examined. They thought it was great. They put it in, they dropped it, they sent it out. And then they were met with backlash. No, just because they suddenly say they're not going to be doing it does not mean that you should jump back on PayPal because basically, they got caught. This is their position. They hate you because of who you are. In fact, earlier this month, the company banned a group called Gays Against Groomers. That is a group that has a bunch of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans advocates, right, who are against the grooming of children. They say, you know what, I might be lesbian or gay, but I don't really think that this agenda that we're seeing is okay, right? They were on Instagram, they were on Twitter, they were on PayPal, and they got banned. People that were sending them money to support the work that they were doing, they got banned because they were considered a hate group. So not hateful to give children puberty blockers and render them infertile for life potentially, but definitely hateful if you're an adult who is trans and saying, hey, not a very good thing to do to children. Go figure. You may have also seen on my Instagram that I have been promoting Glorify. Glorify is spelled G-L-O-R-I-F-I, glorify with an I at the end. It is where I keep my money. You should definitely give them, check them out. You can download it in the App Store. It is, their handle is OfficialGlorify on Instagram, and I think that that is going to be the beginning of the conservative marketplace, the first financial services company that embraces you because you are conservative, and I should mention that I am now a co-founder in that business. So check it out, let me know what you guys think. Moving on, I saw this headline in the Daily Mail, and it was super interesting. It basically said that slavery was back on the ballots. What? That suddenly the South is going to be voting on whether we should have slaves again? No, actually, voters in five states will decide whether to close a loophole in the Constitution allowing for slavery as a criminal punishment in this year's November midterm elections. What they're referring to is that involuntary servitude was made mostly illegal by the 13th Amendment in 1865, except for people who are serving out criminal sentences. Aha, so that's the slavery loophole, right, which they're calling it as a loophole because in prisons, you maybe have to go out and clean the highways, or you maybe have to do some labor while you are sitting in prison, and people have a lot of feelings about that, mainly people that have never been in prison and people that do not have relatives that have spent any time in prison. Now, because I have relatives that have spent time in prison and because I actually did a documentary where I went down in Florida and I met with inmates in 2018, you can still find this on YouTube, I have a very different take. This is not a slavery loophole. This is an example of, once again, the left arguing for an end to something without ever speaking to the people that will be impacted by their decision. I spoke to the people in prison and I spoke to them about this loophole, if you will, and these inmates look forward to the free, quote-unquote, free labor. They actually say that because they are made to sit in a cell and do nothing all day, they look forward to be able to go outside and pick up trash. That actually is them getting out of the little boxes that is their cells. They want to be able to do work like everybody wants to be able to do work, but what's going to happen, like it has happened in other states, this is going to be banned and it's going to force them to do what? You think that their state's just gonna say, okay, well, instead you're going to be able to do whatever you want and have home ec? No, they're gonna make them sit in their cells. So I implore you to not just become an activist about a cause that you know nothing about. Speak to actual inmates and ask them whether or not they feel like slaves when they're allowed to leave and go actually do something that's productive outside of sitting in their cell. By the way, that will be determined on November 8th. It will be the residents of Alabama, Louisiana, Oregon, Tennessee, here, great state of Tennessee, and Vermont who are going to vote on ballot measures in their respective states to close that loophole. If slavery is back on the ballot, by the way, I'm voting yes, so that's Savannah, my assistant. I don't have to pay her anymore. I'm sick of that. Moving on, you guys. Obviously, that was a joke. Can't wait for that Newsweek headline. Savannah wants, Candace wants to enslave Savannah, her assistant. But moving on, next headline I want to talk to you guys about is the gift that keeps on giving to only Patrisse Cullors, Black Lives Matter. Of course, Patrisse just buying the $1.4 million Los Angeles compound was not enough. She's finally completed some renovations there, extensive renovations on her compound, the 2,380 square foot, three-bedroom, three-bathroom property that sits in Topanga Canyon, Topanga Canyon, which is basically for hippies, a lot of white people in bandanas there. I visited there notoriously. You will see that in my documentary, which is dropping on Wednesday, which will, of course, as you know, be a funeral for Black Lives Matter. And I insist that you wear black when you watch the documentary. In fact, you better tag me. I want to see your outfits for this very sad event. But yes, Patrisse's home has undergone multiple renovation works ever since she bought the barn-style property back in March of 2021 after she raised a ton of money, $80 million to be almost exact. And the most recent additions are to the rear of the house, and they appear to include a newly fitted sauna and a plunge pool. Yeah, because that's going to help black America for sure. Like if you are all about the movement and the people, what you do is you plunder the inner cities where black people live, and then you move yourself to an all-white neighborhood, and you make sure that you have a sauna and you have a pool. You hear me? Also fitted is a children's slide and a trampoline in her backyard. And in one portion of the yard, she has a new fire pit that has been installed at the rear of the property, plus a swing set, a slide. And the sauna appeared to have been erected on opposite sides, according to some images. So yeah, that is an addition to the $35,000 fence that she erected around the property last year. All I know is that I'm in the wrong business. I mean, how do I get on the board of Black Lives Matter? I just want the T-shirt, and I want to march in the communities that are going to be plundered. And then I want to delete my whole Instagram as she has done and call myself a victim as I go to my backyard, dip in the pool, and sit in the sauna. That's the life that I want, guys. Moving on. You know, I get a lot of feedback from you guys about me covering culture, and I just want to state one more time, I'm never going to stop covering culture because it matters. And it is because conservatives hold the opinion that it doesn't matter that we have lost so much ground to the left. It is because we have not made any investment in talking about culture that we have ceded so much ground to the left. It is because of this that we are absent in Hollywood, and it's because of this that the biggest public figures in the world are left-leaning and vote left, and they show up when it's time for election season, and they stand behind these people and convince the masses, the young kids who are seized by culture, right? They don't care about your policy papers. They don't care about the debates that you guys are having, these intellectual debates on stage or these panels. They don't care. They're watching Kim Kardashian on Instagram, and Kim Kardashian says, hey, go out and vote for Hillary Clinton. They go and they do it because that's what it means to be an influencer. So if we are not competing there, we are competing nowhere. For the record, once again, Andrew Breitbart was correct when he said politics is downstream from culture. And I have been fascinated, as you guys know, with the Kim Kardashian sex tape story, which is so relevant, I cannot tell you, because if this is correct, and by all indications, it seems that Ray J, her ex, is telling the truth, that she was not a victim of a sex tape, but she orchestrated the sex tape, right? That she's actually a nasty person behind the scenes who has been hell-bent on being famous, and she used a lot of black men in particular to get to where she is and then left them in the dust. Calls Ray J desperate and don't know what's going on with him and now Kanye is crazy, and she's just completely promoted herself to be in the status that she is, right? Now you have Ray J, Ray J being the entertainer who is at the beginning of the story, who has spoken out and said, this has all been a lie, I have had communication with her, spanning back for years, I have helped her in every aspect of her career pre-Kanye involvement, and he's angry, and he is saying he is going to sue this family. This is relevant, right? This is relevant to culture, to prove to children that everything that they see is a deception and a lie. Well, some tapes are making the rounds of Kim Kardashian, and she's talking trash, this is years ago, it seems to be a voicemail that she left Ray J, where it's not the sweet little Kim K that she presents today. She's nasty, she's calling Whitney Houston a crackhead, and she's yelling at Ray J. And this tape landed on my lap, and I am told that there is much, much more, and it is the opposite version of the Kim Kardashian that your kids have been following. This is just a sample of the tape, again, this is a voicemail that she left Ray J, take a listen. So it's being alleged that she left that voicemail because she was upset that Ray J at that moment was becoming more famous than her because he was dating Whitney Houston, who obviously has now passed. Like I said, I'm just throwing that out there because there was a lot more that was presented to me from people that are in Ray J's circle, and I am basically openly inviting him to come onto this show. I can even do a separate podcast because I think the Kardashian family is potentially a Hollywood cartel, and what I mean by that, it's not that they're moving drugs, but I am talking about the control that they have in Hollywood, and the lies that they have told to get to where they're going, and I think that they have left a lot of victims in their wake, Ray J included. He's rightfully angry, and I wanna keep covering that because a family like this should be exposed. So Ray J, if you're seeing this, open invite, and that's all I have to say about that. All right guys, the next portion of the show is going to be available exclusively on Daily Wire Plus. I'm going to be talking about Donna's extremely weird recent TikTok, so if you are not a member yet, go ahead and click the link in the description and subscribe right now.
