Candace Owens (7:18)
And I'll also add to that if she's definitely rambling and you can send. She's uncomfortable and a lot of hand movements. But I'll also add that even when you see her walking the red carpet, she's suddenly very nice to fans. It's a totally different Blake Lively, and she just seems so grateful for every fan that's coming up to her and asking for a picture and, like a hug. Even saw that on the. The red carpet with snl. I think it was. I can't think of the woman's last name. Amy. One of my producers will say it in my ear, but when they were speaking and they were hugging and they just sort of looked at each other and she just seems so much more compassionate now. Right. Where you can see that she's had some sort of a. An internal breakdown. And I noticed that following that ramble session, which was posted on Instagram over and over again, some of the comments in response to it were quite sympathetic to Brett, to Blake. Right. They. They said that you can really feel her anxiety through the screen. One inst. Instagram user was actually even empathetic to the matter and saying that they similarly ramble when they are on their anxiety meds. And I would not be shocked at all by the way, if Blake during this moment was taking anxiety meds. I. I believe truly it is not an act to suggest that Blake Lively is anxious at this moment in time with so much on the line and everything that she feels that she's worked for, essentially being wiped out with one case. So the question that people are asking is, should we be the better person? Should we take the Justin Baldoni. Should we take a look at this situation, obsess the monster that lived inside of her, and show her some compassion? Especially because many of us agree that Ryan Reynolds was the leader in this. I believe that. I believe Ryan Reynolds was the leader and is the leader in everything that she does. So should we be compassionate? And the answer is no, my friends. We obviously should not be compassionate. You know, we. That's not how this works, okay? When you get caught doing something that is purely evil, the task is not on the people who caught you doing that thing to extend forgiveness to you. When you have not asked for forgiveness, that is the important Part here, okay? Something that I actually learned from my father in law. So my husband always says, when people say, do you forgive that person? The. The question is, have they asked for forgiveness? And Blake Lively has not. She's not said sorry. She has not even said sorry to the court. She has not dropped the lawsuit. She has not made a statement. She has not apologized to anyone for attempting to execute an act of perfect evil. And she would have gotten away with it. Think of Scooby Doo. I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids. We are the meddling kids. This was meant to be an act of evil against a harmless person. She sensed his weakness and she went for it. And yes, I too would be anxious and uncomfortable if the world finally saw me for exactly what I was, right? If I had perfectly curated this idea of me caring about various causes and caring about people. And in reality, I get caught in my own text messages as being a very mean girl who will even use a list power and the threat of dragons to take somebody down, who just wanted to bring forth a movie that they were passionate about. A book that they were passionate about taking a book and turning it into a movie because he wanted to tell a story about domestic violence. Okay? So I just wanna remind you guys that whenever and if ever you begin to feel an iota of sadness for Blake Lively, I want you to remember all of the things that she did to Justin Baldoni. I want you to revisit the website that Brian Friedman put up, and I want you to read her text messages and how horrific they were. How quickly her and Ryan decided to use the threat of Taylor Swift to take down Justin Baldoni and make him feel like he was powerless in the world of Hollywood. I want you to remember their agents. Bodoni, Baldoni, Baloney. Ari Emanuel, okay? Still bullying him after lawsuits have been filed because they view themselves to be that powerful. Okay? We're the giants here, and there's nothing that Justin can do about it. And I will promise you that when you recapture that in your own imagination, recapture how Justin Baldoni and his family must have felt, realizing that if it wasn't for us meddling kids, okay, if it wasn't for us meddling kids, he would have effectively been branded as a sexual pervert. That would have been the story of Justin Baldoni. We would have been an actor who did a movie, who then moved to direct a movie. And then it was discovered, thanks to the wonderful feminist that Blake Lively is and her wonderful feminist friends who march in Songs to take down Katy Perry. Thanks to her, we recognized that actually he was a sexual pervert who both thought she was ugly, but also couldn't look away from her and irresistibly needed to stare at her, him and Justin Heath when she was breastfeeding because they're just so into those sorts of things. Who was into a category of porn that nobody has ever heard of, which is a woman giving birth, realize that they sat down, they made threats in an effort to take over his movie, and when they didn't get what they wanted, they were willing to brand him as a sexual predator via one of the most powerful news organizations in the world, the New York Times. And they were able to do that because of their connections. So, no, the answer to people that are wondering in the comments if you should feel bad because she looks anxious, the answer is no, you shouldn't feel bad, and she should be anxious. Okay? After a person goes on a murder spree, to give you an example, and if they're home and they're dumping their clothes and getting rid of all the evidence and then they hear sirens outside, they start to feel anxious. We don't go, oh, my gosh, I feel. So he's going through a moment of anxiety, recognizing that he might really get caught, that he really might actually have to serve a sentence for this horrific act that he committed. No, we keep marching until she gives us the miya culpa and she recognizes and thinks about the anxiety that his wife must have gone through, recognizing that it was a plausibility, that her kids could grow up and believe that their father was a monster. Okay, maybe think about how Justin Baldoni felt when he was in that basement at the his own movie premiere and they were laughing and dancing upstairs, thinking that they had almost done it, that it was almost completed, and that they had taken over his movie. And by the way, if you were on the fence about how involved Blake Lively was, I certainly was at moments going, was this just being driven by Ryan? Was she even on the set when he did these Deadpool things? Was she even aware of the lines that he was writing since she played played Lady Deadpool, but she only did the voiceover and she wasn't actually on set. Did she know that he was going to over murder him and do all of these horrific, toxic things? Well, we got our answer when somebody on Tick Tock was able to find that present at that shoot that we just showed you where he brought his mom in to mock Justin Baldoni and to make fun of him and his background and his family and ayahuasca. Blake Lively was present when that was shot. Here is a backstage at the It Ends with us Ryan Reynolds promo shoot. It says, the one and only Blake Smollett. And for those of you that are listening on the podcast, it is her laughing and speaking. It looks like she's directing almost Ryan's mother to say lines. And we know that she was saying lines about Blake, that Brennan was meant to be Justin Baldoni. And this was really, truly high school bullying done to the Hollywood extreme. So I don't forgive it. I will not forget it. But when she comes down and asks for an apology, then we can revisit that question. Okay, first I want to tell you guys about preborn. Before we get into the meat and potatoes of today, what to what do Andrea Bocelli, Steph Curry, Justin Bieber and Tim Tebow all have in common? Well, all of their mothers were encouraged to end their pregnancies. That's the truth. When a woman faces an unplanned pregnancy, she's often pressured to end her child's life. She wants to make the right choice with society. And those around her are telling her that the baby it's not a life. That's where the Ministry of Preborn steps in. Preborn and their network of clinics offer compassionate, loving care to mothers and the support that they need to help them choose life, including a free ultrasound, because once a mother hears her child's heartbeat, she is twice as likely to choose life. If you consider yourself pro life, it's time to join forces with preborn. Together we can empower women to choose life. Empowering the truth of motherhood transforms families and futures. One ultrasound sound is just $28 and $140 will help to rescue five babies. When you donate monthly, you'll receive stories and pictures of the lives that you helped to save. To donate securely, you just dial £250 and say the keyword baby. That's £250, baby. Or you can donate securely@preborn.com Candace Again, that's pre warn.com Candace okay, now it's time for me to get into some trouble. Okay? I'm old, by the way, 35 years old. I'm so old that I remember when conservatives were against the weaponization of the Department of Justice. I remember there was this event called January 6th and the Aftermath of it. I remember the media, which is so good at brainwashing us, repeatedly showing videos of people breaking through barriers. And what was happening outside of this media depiction was this Sweeping justification for the harassment of Americans who were simply there that day, many of whom never entered the Capitol building. They literally just listened to Trump speak and went home. Why do I know this? Because I had friends from my hometown who only attended President Trump's speech. And then they went home and then the FBI arrived at their door to question them about why on earth they went to the rally at all. Okay. That is the reality of circumstances. And I know people that are now watching my series and seeing me do all these investigative things. You are starting to reexamine your relationship with the media. It's amazing what can happen in moments of confusion, what you allowed to happen in moments of confusion when a story is presented to you. The message that they received when the FBI showed up at their door, okay, literally kids that I went to elementary school with is essentially they were being threatened for political reasons. And many people allowed that to happen because the media convinced them through the repetition of videos and words. Words like domestic terrorism. It's terrorism. It's a terroristic threat. The overuse of the word terrorism has been used to propagandize people into believing that if they don't acquiesce to whatever the government wants, well, your nation is going to somehow be harmed. Because this is. These are terroristic threats. Hello, 9 11, right? Why are we now, why do we all have to like, get naked at the airport? Because after an event like 9 11, there was so much confusion. We were told the Middle east, we don't even know how we got into war. But it was like, take your belts and shoes off at the airport or you're all gonna die. And we were like, okay, sure, that seems like a fair trade off. And now we look back and we go, goodness. When we're emotional and we're fired up about stuff or we hear certain trigger words, we allow a lot of over governance. I'm also so old, okay, that I remember two weeks ago on this podcast when I showed a tremendous clip of Vice President J.D. vance. He went over to Europe and he rightfully told the leaders, European leaders, that they had become what they hated. Remember the Munich security conference? He was saying, you guys are sending police officers to the doors of your own citizens for wrong think. Because rather than try to understand the ideas and see which way the wind is blowing in your countries, you're telling them it's not allowed. Who are you? How can you purport to be people that defend freedom when actually you're trying to prosecute it? And he was right. And I applauded that, and I'm getting so old, you guys, that I remember BLM protests on campus. Who was there? Who was alive? Am I the only dinosaur here? And some of them grew extremely violent. Not all of them, but some of them definitely grew extremely violent all across cities. I gave speeches on college campuses during that time, and I remember having students that were blocking and barricading doors, blaring music. I was traveling with Charlie Kirk. They were fighting police officers. I got chased down by an TIFA in a diner in Philadelphia with Charlie Kirk. You can still find that clip. Totally insane stuff. People that were masked and it wasn't. Okay. So I have to tell you that as someone who personally survived the Antifa and the BLM riots, I was very understanding when Trump said that he was going to be cracking down on illegal protests. Operative word being illegal. And he said this on March 4th when he posted this to Truth Social. He wrote, all federal funding will stop for any college, school, or university that allows illegal protests. Agitators will be imprisoned or permanently sent back to the country from which they came. American students will be permanently expelled, depending on the crime. Arrested, no masks. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Cool. I said, okay, that. That actually works for me. Then we found out via a tweet yesterday that he had arrested a person named Mahmoud Khalil. Okay, and I'll just read you the Trump the Truth Social tweet. I don't know if they call them tweets on Truth Social, but he wrote, following my previously signed executive orders, ICE proudly apprehended and detained Mahmoud Khalil, a radical, foreign, pro Hamas student, on the campus of Columbia University. This is the first arrest of many to come. We know there are more students at Columbia and other universities across the country who have engaged in pro terrorist, anti Semitic, anti American activity. And the Trump administration will not tolerate it. Many are not students. They are paid agitators. We will fund apprehension. We will find, pardon, apprehend, and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country, never to return again. If you support terrorism, including the slaughtering of innocent men, women and children, your presence is contrary to our national and foreign policy interests, and you are not welcome here. We expect every one of America's colleges and universities to comply. Thank you. Okay, then the White House blared this out across their social media pages, writing on top of a photo of this student activist, Shalom, Shalom, Mahmoud. And they wrote, ICE proudly apprehended and detained Mahmoud Khalid. So to be clear, this wasn't done quietly. This was Done loudly. They called him a pro Hamas student. And obviously people are then going to look into this person because this is an example of the policy you said, illegal protesting. So I thought, okay, this is going to be pretty simple. I abstained yesterday from all the chatter about it because I knew, I just knew in my gut that this person had to have been arrested for doing something that was illegal, engaging in an illegal protest. He must have been arrested on a campus, and therefore, because he was on a student visa, he had to leave. And I was okay with that. But something else was presented to the public. Okay, here are the facts. Yes, he is a Palestinian activist. His name is Mahmoud Khalil. He was, in fact detained by ICE over Columbia University protest. He had completed work on his master's degree from Columbia University in December. But he is a legal resident of the United States. Okay. He is a green card holder. That is very different from somebody who is here on a student visa. Okay. That means you essentially have all of the rights that are afforded to you. You can't vote, but you can have legal green card residency for a very long time. So he was arrested and detained by federal agents after his lawyer said that his green card was revoked by the Trump administration despite the fact that he hadn't been arrested for engaging in illegal protests. So that made me go, okay, wait, what's this? What's going on? His attorney, a woman named Amy Greer, said that Khalil's wife, who is in fact an American citizen, was also present during his arrest, and she's eight months pregnant. Eight months pregnant. She finds out her green card holding, legal, permanent residential husband is about to be kicked out of the country and he hasn't been arrested yet. So I'm going, there must be something here that we're missing. Okay. Clearly I got to kind of get through all of the fodder on social media because you know you're going to get. He was a master reporter. I've been called a Hamas supporter for pointing out that I don't like dead children that are Palestinian, like, truly survive. My last year, everything that I was called, that's why I don't react when I hear these names. I actually look for the truth. I look for the source. I want to hear what he said, and I want to see what he did. I no longer believe in smears and libels, in name calling, ad hominen attacks. Just show me the video of what this individual did, what he said that showed that he was supporting a terroristic group overseas, and you will have me committed to your beliefs. But 24 hours later, we couldn't find this. We could not find this. Nobody was able to present anything other than ad hominen attacks. Okay, we looked into it a little bit further. In an interview with CNN last spring, Khalil Khalil said that he was born a Palestinian refug refugee in Syria. Okay, so he is Palestinian. That's why he obviously is going to have some feelings about what's happening to Palestinians. The innocent Palestinians, okay? People who think that innocent children and women being bombed is wrong are not necessarily Hamas supporters. We're conflating, okay? We are conflating and we're doing it because it's disingenuous. Then we learned that his family is from Tiberius, an Israeli city that was once known for its mixed Jewish and Arab populate population. He grew up in Syria. He earned his bachelor's degree in computer science from Lebanese American University. That's at least according to his LinkedIn profile. And then in 2023, he began studying to earn his Masters in Public Administration at Columbia's School of International and public affairs. After October 7, there was a coalition of students that established encampments on at Columbia University. They held rallies, they staged teach ins. But the movement, of course, was also being tainted by people who just hated Jews, which, by the way, on cnn, Khalil himself disavowed. He said, quote, there is, of course, no place for anti Semitism. What we are witnessing is anti Palestinian sentiment that's taking different forms. And anti Semitism, Islamophobia, racism are some of these forms. He added at that time that he chose not to participate directly in the student encampments because he did not want to risk the university revoking his student visa. So he was conscious of that. Instead, he just gave speeches and was one of the students that was selected to lead discussions with the university administrators because they began negotiating with the student activists. And he represented them at Columbia University, a coalition called Apartheid Divest that demanded, among other things, that the university divest from its financial ties to Israel until there was a ceasefire in Gaza. Days after he spoke to cnn, the university missed its deadline to reach an agreement on that divestment. And in response, months, a bunch of students, as well as people that were not affiliated with the school at all. So these were just like protests that were happening everywhere. Entered Columbia's Hamilton hall, and they barricaded themselves inside. Now, he was not one of these students. The university. Thus far, no one has proclaimed he barricaded himself into this university. The university then requested Police assistance. They removed the protesters and more than 280 people were arrested from Hamilton Hall. Good. You can't barricade yourself inside a school. That's you breaking the law. He just wasn't one of these students. After those demonstrations, the university moved to suspend him, but then they reversed the decision because after reviewing the evidence, they realized they didn't have any evidence to warrant suspending him. So in his view, the suspension was completely random. Now, I can tell you that, and I would say until we get answers, this is, this is actually something I agree with. A federal judge has moved to block the effort of the Trump administration to deport him. Judge Jesse Furman ordered a hearing on the case to be held on Wednesday morning in New York City. And so I will be following that tomorrow because I don't understand why he was selected to be deported. People are outraged because despite making a giant splash and announcing his arrest, the politicians in the follow up discussions seem completely unable to answer specific questions about which law he broke. They're just kind of reminding us that, well, green card holders can be revoked at any time. Okay, yeah, sure, but is your, you just, you don't, you don't like his speech, you don't like his opinion? Is that what we're getting at? And I'll show you what I'm talking about. Here's Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, who was pointedly asked about what, which law this individual broke. And he's going to say a lot of words, but he's also going to say absolutely nothing. Take a listen.
