CROM CARMICHAEL:
Michael last evening, Tucker Carlson started his show talking about how the White House and maybe some other groups were awarded the International Woman of the Year Award to a man and he talked about what, what does that mean. And I thought about it, I know we’ve all heard the story about the fellow whose wife is out of town on business and he’s in bed in his own home with somebody else, and the wife comes home early and walks in the door and catches him.
And he says, honey, are you gonna believe what I’m about to tell you? Or are you gonna believe those lying eyes of yours? And that’s the world we live in today. You have the Biden administration saying that the southern border is secure. We have, what’s her name, the French woman?
Pierre says that fentanyl is now the least problem we’ve had in decades. And then you have Biden saying inflation is not a problem. Our economy is in great shape. The list of falsehoods goes on and on, and they’re just brazen. And so it is unsurprising that the White House in a very solemn ceremony would present a man with the award of International Woman of the Year.
And the thing that’s interesting to me is I wonder where in the world are women’s organizations. The ones that claim to have fought so hard for women’s rights, they’re now taking a backseat. And here’s what I predict will happen. Not that long ago, a few years, John McEnroe was on a television set and they were talking about Serena Williams and there was a female commentator on there who was a woman but not a tennis player, not a professional tennis player.
And John McEnroe said there’s no doubt in anybody who knows tennis mind that Serena Williams is the greatest female player to ever play the game. And the woman on there said why don’t you just say that she’s the greatest player to ever play the game?
And McInroy was startled by the comment and he said because she’s not. She’s the greatest female player. If she played against men, she’d be ranked about 700th in the world. He said she wouldn’t be a starter. She wouldn’t even make a men’s college tennis team.
But she is a great tennis player in her own right. And so that’s the tip of the iceberg of this stuff where somebody says something that is just brazenly false and then is incredibly offended when people don’t agree. And that’s the world we live in today. The stock market is not in good shape. The stock market is down off of where it was when Biden took office.
It’s been as high as 36,000. It’s down to 32,000; it’s really close. What I’m talking about in just the Dow, other stocks have fallen much, much more. And if you take into account the inflation, that 32,000 is really probably closer to 24,000. So stocks have lost, from a value standpoint, probably a third of their value.
It wouldn’t surprise me if the French lady came out today and claimed their stocks are currently at an all-time. And the press would say, hey, yay. Did you hear that? Stocks are at an all-time high! And so we’re living in a world where Biden now claims he’s a capitalist.
Then he comes out with a budget where he is taxing anything that moves at incredibly high rates and nobody in the media except the relatively few people who are rational and logical are calling Biden out for this. It’ll be fascinating to see what happens as Biden runs for reelection.
He will continue to make statements that are verifiably, 100% false, and he will still get away with it with the media. The question is whether or not the voters are going to believe him or believe their lying eyes.
