the highlight of of the uh entire hearing and and then we'll move on to the new Republican National platform which is highly controversial among among Republicans uh and and we'll get into that in just a moment first though uh Ben was there as you you might have seen and Ben was testifying alongside all these lib hacks and uh then some lib hacks in Congress wanted to take on Ben so Eric swalwell of fangfang Fame uh decided he wasn't going to ask Ben really anything about garm or advertising in in the daily wire he was going to talk about project 2025 and the country has in the last couple weeks talked a lot about and Googled uh proog project 2025 it's one of the most Googled uh Search terms right now and uh you're not going to get any censorship from me so uh I just wanted to know from your perspective I think it would help us understand on just like a scale of Z to 100% how much do you support project 2025 I think like President Trump I haven't looked all that deeply at project 2025 but it seems that Democrats on this committee sort of like Peter Pan and Tinkerbell uh if they say project 2025 enough their presidential candidate becomes alive again so swell goes on he he takes the licks poor poor swell just got absolutely destroyed by B during destroy Shapiro destroys Fang Fang's boyfriend with facts and logic and snark he he goes on to ask Ben about Mass deportation about the abortion pill about the definition of marriage about Ben sexual desires his own sexual desires and I'm not even going to waste our time on these questions because what matters here is what swell was not talking about this was a hearing on how the libs are trying to choke out conservative media Outlets how the libs are trying to censor conservatives how Leb libs are weaponizing corporate Corporate America and international corporations even to to bleed out the conservative organizations and suppress their reach and how big Tech is complicit in that and how that's what this hearing was about and sww well didn't want to talk about it for one second these Libs didn't want to talk about it for one second because they know we have got them dead to rights on this they have no defense of it whatsoever it is obscene and so they're going to distract any way they can no let's can we talk about abortion more please uh no what do you think about project 2025 it's the new January 6th project 2025 is officially the new January 6th and Ben says uh I don't know like I don't really know much about it it's at the Heritage Foundation I I don't know well well yeah sure but did you know that just the other day the Biden campaign that they love posting the highlights of my show the Biden campaign said Trump operative explains how project 2025 is going to turn Trump into a dictator and I looked I looked at my clip which was really an excellent clip nice they they pull out good stuff from my show but then I read the caption and I thought well I'm I'm not a political operative I'm a a podcast host and author and lecturer I I don't work for Donald Trump I support the guy but I I don't work for him I didn't say that about project 2025 and that and if I had that wouldn't be an accurate description of project 2025 but but other than that spot on good job Biden campaign maybe the Biden campaign has dementia too I I know the man does maybe the campaign does too they're they're really hyperfocused on this why because they got nothing on Trump because they got nothing on the daily wire because they got nothing because they got nothing so they have to distract with all of this and this leads us into the RNC RNC is next week very excited uh it's going to be it's going to be a big convention especially because we don't really know who the Democrat nominee is every day it seems that Joe Biden's grip on the party is slipping and slipping Trump got in trouble among some Republicans because he he appears to have altered the party platform and this will be fought over including through next week in into in Milwaukee but it would appear that the Republican National Committee has removed language about Desiring a national ban on abortion and has removed language about marriage obviously being the union of a man and a woman not you know three dudes in a billy goat or whatever the libs want it to be now it's just it's just a natural institution uh so the RNC has removed this kind of language and some people are really up in arms about this and you know me okay I'm the dog no I'm not I'm Michael nolles and I'm extremely pro-life totally pro-life I totally defend marriage as it actually is I don't think we can just change the definition of marriage I don't think men and women are uh IND discernible and uh immutable and I think you know sex is real and permanent and marriage is a union between a man and a woman uh for the purpose of the procreation and uh education of children and also for the mutual support of the spouses and so I I have as rock ribbed and consistent a view on these issues as anybody and yet I'm not huffing and puffing and screaming at Trump about this why be because I I I think some of the consternation over the party platform change comes from a misunderstanding of what a party platform is a party platform exists to help candidates get elected that's what the party platform is for the candidates are not there for the party platform the party platform is there to help the candidates Trump is looking pretty good he if you look at really any of the polls right now he is destroying Biden with facts and logic and votes the areas where the Democrats really want to focus in are areas like abortion or the LGBT Elemento you know gay marriage or something that's where they're huning in Ben Shapiro goes to Capitol Hill to testify about how the libs are are trying to destroy the daily wire the Democrat Congressman only want to talk about the abortion pill and these controversial issues so it seems politically prudent if you're Trump to distance yourself from Project 2025 I think project 2025 is great what I know of it the people who are involved the people leading it the purpose of it which is to to bring great Personnel into the next Administration whoever's Administration that is to uh recognize the personnel's policy and all I think it's absolutely terrific and I also think it's probably wise a president Trump to rightly say that he's not directly involved in this and he doesn't really know much about it I I want to see abortion totally eradicated from public life entirely uh worldwide I I just it's just not defensible to murder innocent little babies it's child sacrifice and it's molok worship and it's as wicked and evil a thing as imaginable and it is the worst kind of persecution against the most innocent people in the world and it's just a complete denial of of the fundamental right on from which all the other rights uh come so I certainly think that uh also I recognize that in a post-dbs world advocating for life is going to look a little bit different in a world where roie Wade is the law of the land and no one thinks it's really going to change a party platform is might might help candidates by looking a certain way and calling for a National Abortion ban after the Supreme Court says the issue goes back to the States conservatives have been calling it for for it to go to the states it's not going to be decided at the federal level the the two or 3 years after that that controversial decision comes down it's going to look a little different same with marriage I don't think you can change the definition of marriage I think gay marriage is a complete joke it's absurd and it's it's harmful to uh Society in as much as it's absurd and when you try and and it cuts at the the fundamental political unit which is the family uh so it it really cuts at the very heart of our politics and like we could go on about why marriage matters uh ad nauseum also it's probably politically wise to to take it out of the party platform because you're not really going to win new people over to your side with that and now there's a there's a a fear here the fear is well what if Donald Trump gets elected and then starts pushing abortion what if he's what if he it's not just that he wants to downplay the abortion issue in the election but what if he's really pro-abortion or something like that well I don't think he is he's the first president to speak at the March for Life for sitting president to do that and he's the guy who got the judges to overrule roie Wade after almost 50 years so I guess I'm just willing to give the guy a little bit more grace in his language especially when he's saying look I just want to get elected guys because we know what he's done he's had a term as president already and he's the most pro-life president we've ever had so forgive me for just giving him a little Grace on this and thinking okay past might be president same with the marriage thing if I found out uh you know president Trump secretly wanted to abolish marriage and uh you know start hosting orgies or something I don't know I guess I that would be you know that would give me pause but I don't think it's that I think he's just a normal guy and it's I don't think it's a top issue for him and uh but I don't think he's going to move the country in a more radical Direction on on marriage I think he just wants to downplay and he recognizes it's kind of a Dead Issue right now so as a matter of political Prudence what he's doing is probably smart this will all be introverted uh you know in Milwaukee but I just seems to me people are taking cheap shots at Trump and they're they're missing the forest for the trees here you know it's it's not like we we don't know who this guy is he's already been president that's why this election and this convention and this nominating process that's why it's going to look different none of us has seen this in our lifetimes that was a great clip now hold up ring the bell subscribe to the Michael nolles YouTube channel we'll see you next time
