us on is that he called for his mother moments before he died.

Now if you're a human being you can't hear that without feeling it right? I mean you just feel that. But the moment you learn that that's just a thing he does when he gets arrested it means a completely different thing. Now it just means it's the thing he says when he gets arrested. I don't know how this trial could have any kind of a murder conviction.

Cliff Sims was noting on Twitter. Cliff Sims was noting that Axios had this line in a story. So this is a quote from the story in Axios. Trump and other conservatives have frequently warned sometimes inaccurately about foreign terrorists entering the United States via the southern border. So that's a sentence in a story by Axios. And as Cliff Sims points out imagine writing this line in a story that literally proves the warnings were in fact accurate because the story was about actual people on the terrorist watch list who came across the border. Like it was a story about real terrorists coming or at least on the watch list coming across the border. And then they have to insert a line about Trump and other conservatives frequently being inaccurate about foreign terrorists entering via the southern border. I mean that's trying really hard to make your news friendly to Biden is it?

All right. Here's the best summary of the pandemic I've heard so far. It's a big complicated thing right but Melissa Slusher on Twitter summed it up with one tweet and she tweeted I used to cough to cover up a fart. Now I fart to cover up a cough. We're done here. I think we're done here.

I have a question for you on transgender stuff. Let me begin this by saying the trans community I hope they know that I'm your greatest ally much to the chagrin of my audience. Number two everything I'm going to say about this topic is with respect and good intentions. So if you feel that I say something next that sounds disrespectful just know that that's not my intention okay?

But I was watching the story of Elliot Page who used to be known as Ellen Page and when she was defining herself as female she's a well-known successful actress but is now Elliot Page and has transitioned. And here's a question I ask and I say this again I'm asking this question with genuine respectful curiosity okay? So let's keep it at that level. This is respectful curiosity and I think it's a fair question and it goes like this.

I don't know the point of transitioning. Do you? Can somebody explain it to me? Like why would you do it? Now I understand that people think they identify with a different gender in their mind. I get that. But why would you go through the process?

Because here then let me drill down on that a little bit. So the picture of Elliot Page on Time magazine shows Elliot just in of course you know boy or man attire. She looks about or I'm sorry see there I did it. So that's accidental. So I accidentally used the wrong pronoun but because you know that I'm not doing anything disrespectfully just a mistake okay?

Here's my question. In a world in which you can fall in love with and marry anybody you want, men can marry men, women can marry women, anybody can do anything. In a world in which you could wear any clothing you want right you can put on any clothes you want why do you have to do anything else? And this is genuine curiosity and I feel like there's some big part of this whole topic that I don't understand.

So if there's somebody in the transgender community who can explain to me what is the extra gain you get by the physical operations. So let's say Elliot Page I don't know what Elliot Page's sexual preference is because that gets all confusing right? So let's say but let's say that Elliot Page liked women. I don't know if that's true but let's just say that's true. Why wouldn't Elliot Page be able to date that same woman without having done any of the transition? You know assuming that that woman wants to be dated right? So if you can date anybody you want you can wear anything you want what is the point? I actually don't understand the point.

And I'm just going to look at your messages and see if any of you know the point. Yeah so somebody's saying you feel trapped in the wrong body but does the operation help that? I don't know does it? And what does it mean to be trapped in the wrong body? What makes it wrong?

Well let me drill down on that a little bit. And again if you're just joining this we're trying to be respectful and the intention is just to learn something here that I really genuinely am confused about. Because I think if you understand any group better your ability to accept them and you know not to be biased is just easier. So just understanding is a big deal.

Somebody says there's a psychophysical alignment problem. But here's my problem. If we agree there's no one right way to look how could you be mismatched with your look and your brain? So I guess that's let me say that again. If we've accepted the point and I do I accept this point they can look any way you want doesn't matter what your gender is or your preference you can look any way you want get any haircut you want wear any clothing you want. But you actually have to. Is there a mental I'll just say a situation I don't want to put a judgment on it. Is there a mental situation where there's someone who was born biologically female where they really need to have a penis? Other than it would be a defining characteristic of being a male gender. But does the penis specifically like if you feel is this what it is do you feel like it should be there and it's not there you look down and there's no penis and then you need to fix that to feel like you're all whole? Is that what it is?

Yeah so I don't really understand it. I don't understand it on a logical level but I want to. I would actually like to understand it. All right we'll get off that.

Did you see that video of the Biden and the microphones? It looks like there's some weird illusion where it looks like his hand goes past the microphone or through it or something. You have to see that video. It's kind of freaky but I think it's just that just the way the cameras are set up. There's nothing to it except that the microphones were on long sticks so that the reporters were actually pretty far away from Biden but you couldn't tell because you just saw the tops of the microphones. You didn't know they were on long sticks. And then when Biden's talking at one point his hand goes past the microphone which you think would be impossible if the reporter were holding it. So that's how the illusion happens. But since you don't know they're on sticks Biden just walked up to the microphones and at one point his hand went past them. I think that's all it was.

All right. So there was a claim that Columbia University was holding separate student graduation ceremonies by income and sexual orientation. That turned out to be fake news. Partially fake news because everybody goes to the same graduation at Columbia University but voluntarily they can have their own separate in addition to graduations voluntarily of you know a group by ethnicity or income or whatever.

And I'm thinking to myself how is that good? How does let's say you're a black graduate or anything else like I suppose there's probably an Asian American group etc. And you've graduated you graduated with everybody and then you want to hold your own separate graduation with people who have your ethnic similarity. How does that help you really? Now I could see if you had a party. If you had a party with the people who were like you even then that would be a little sketchy but at least you know it doesn't sound as bad as having a graduation ceremony with just people who look like you. Well yeah it just
