| 0:00.0 | Well, it's pretty clear that the Democratic Party has now been engaging in a campaign against |
| 0:03.9 | white Christian men, but that's had some pretty dire consequences on the other side of the aisle as well. We're going to get into all of that. Plus, we're going to be talking about the Federal Reserve lowering interest rates and President Trump making a tariff deal kind of with the Chinese first. Since the Daily Wire launched 10 years ago, everything we've accomplished has been because of our members. Every fight we've taken on, every piece of truth we've exposed, all of it made |
| 0:24.7 | possible. Since the Daily Wire launched 10 years ago, everything we've accomplished has been because of our members. Every fight we've taken on, every piece of truth we've exposed, all of it made possible by their support. Today, we're releasing Hiding in PlainSight, a documentary so critical we're making it free for everyone on Daily Wire Plus, because this is a threat every parent needs to understand. Hiding in PlainSight is a warning to all of us about the online dangers kids are are trying to navigate, dangers that didn't exist when we were growing up, and that many parents don't even realize are out there. We'd all like to believe that bad things could never reach our families, of course. The truth is, digital sex trafficking and extortion scams are happening right now in our communities, potentially inside our own homes. And again, the only reason we can make this film available for free for everybody is because of our DailyWire Plus members. Head on over to DailyWire.com and watch it for free right now. Share it. Sit down with your family, your school, your kids, and talk about it. And if you're not a member yet, join us. Step into the fight. Help us keep delivering this type of crucial content to the world. Well, folks, we are watching a tremendous political |
| 1:11.2 | radicalization take place in the United States. That radicalization has been most obvious on the left. |
| 1:16.5 | There is a concomitant movement that is happening on the right. It is a splinter movement |
| 1:19.8 | on the right that's being massaged by some of the people who have some sway in the |
| 1:24.8 | conservative movement, at least in the commentary. And I think it's important |
| 1:27.9 | to point out how one is leading to the other, because that is the sort of pattern in American |
| 1:32.2 | politics. Politics generally is incredibly reactionary. People tend not to respond reasonably |
| 1:38.3 | to provocations that are unreasonable, and they tend to swivel into their own unreasonable |
| 1:43.0 | positions and the pendulum swings ever back and forth. It is a rarity to find a moment of sort of clarity and reasonableness |
| 1:49.3 | in American politics, even if the people who constitute a vast majority of the American body |
| 1:54.6 | populace are, in fact, a sort of normy middle. If you look at the polls, Americans are normy middle on pretty much every |
| 2:02.1 | issue, they are normy middle. Americans want a strong national defense, but they don't want |
| 2:06.7 | tremendous interventionism. Americans want a traditional value system, but not one that has the |
| 2:12.7 | government snooping in their bedrooms. Americans want a system of laws that makes sure that there is some basic |
| 2:20.2 | level of social safety net, but they do not want the government taking tremendous amounts |
| 2:23.9 | of money away from them and regulating their businesses out of existence. That's what the polls show. |
| 2:28.0 | It's what the polls show every single time. America is a very politically normy country. |
| 2:32.9 | A center-right country is basically where you would place America on the map, if you're |
| 2:37.6 | creating a sort of spectrum of countries from far right to far left. |
| 2:43.0 | And yet, our politics right now seems to be revolving around the polls. |
