[00:01] Good day, dear patriot and fellow
[00:05] traveler of truth, whatever the heck
[00:07] that means. It is Christmas Eve, my
[00:10] friend. Christmas Eve and from our home
[00:13] to yours, the best this Christmas,
[00:16] Hanukkah, Quanza, don't forget Quanza. I
[00:20] don't understand what happened to
[00:22] Quanza. Am I the only one who rep? I
[00:25] guess.
[00:27] But it is Christmas Eve and in a year
[00:31] filled with noise and confusion and
[00:34] absolute cowardice
[00:36] and gutless wonder and professional
[00:40] silence. Candace Owens has bestowed upon
[00:45] us the gift of balls. Elephantine
[00:50] enormous
[00:52] gargantuan
[00:54] broadbing naggian inane
[00:57] balls,
[00:59] guts,
[01:00] intrapidity, tmerity the likes of which
[01:04] we have never seen. She owned this year.
[01:09] Owned it. And you know she has everybody
[01:12] else, her adversaries to thank. Candace
[01:15] Owens gave the country something rare.
[01:18] My friends, she gave us nerve, guts,
[01:21] balls, whales, gur. She gave us clarity.
[01:26] She gave us an example. No wrapping
[01:29] paper, no fake son of it. No ho ho ho
[01:32] hallmark nonsense. Just truth said out
[01:36] loud when it mattered most. Manifest and
[01:40] beautiful. What Candace has done is not
[01:43] complicated. And that is the point, dear
[01:46] friend. She didn't invent a new uh
[01:49] ideology. She didn't hide behind jargon
[01:52] or credential worship. No. Nigh nigh.
[01:56] She didn't ask permission from donors
[01:59] and editors and party bosses or Ben
[02:02] Shapiro or Polite society.
[02:06] Uh-uh. She looked at what was happening.
[02:09] She called it the way she saw it and
[02:12] what it was. And she stood there while
[02:15] the arrows flew. That is the gift. The
[02:20] gift of guts, of courage, of conviction.
[02:25] In a time, my friend, when so many
[02:27] people speak only after after checking
[02:30] the temperature of the room, she spoke
[02:33] first and accepted the cost. People were
[02:37] saying, "Candice, enough. Enough." She
[02:39] says, "I'm not even close." Think about
[02:42] it. The people in the pantheon of
[02:45] toughness, of tough guys, who has more
[02:48] guts in Gon than she does? No one. No
[02:53] one.
[02:55] Alex Jones, remember, he's he's in the
[02:58] museum by himself. He's in the pantheon
[03:00] by himself. You got to exclude him, of
[03:02] course, what he's what he's endured. But
[03:05] Candace opens this year.
[03:08] My friend, we live in an age where
[03:10] courage is treated like some little PR
[03:13] problem. People want to appear brave
[03:15] without ever being brave. And they want
[03:18] they want the aesthetic of rebellion
[03:21] without the consequences without paying
[03:23] dues.
[03:25] And CO rejected that bargain. She didn't
[03:28] she didn't issue soft clarifications
[03:31] later. She didn't apologize for being
[03:34] precise. She understood and withtood
[03:37] something very old and very American.
[03:41] [snorts] If you do not draw a line,
[03:43] someone else will draw it for you and it
[03:46] will not be where you want it. Let this
[03:49] be a lesson, my friend. And what makes
[03:51] her stand out is not volume or attitude.
[03:54] It is consistency, authenticity. She's
[03:58] been saying the same basic things for
[04:00] years, even when it was lonely.
[04:04] Family matters, truth matters, nation
[04:06] matters, reality matters, lies rot and
[04:10] destroy institutions. Fear, ladies and
[04:12] gentlemen, empowers tyrants. Silence is
[04:16] consent. These aren't radical ideas.
[04:18] These are foundational precepts,
[04:21] foundational maxims, the basics, the
[04:25] basics of love. as Whan Jennings in
[04:28] tone. You know, the radical part is
[04:30] saying them now when so many gutless
[04:33] twits behind microphones refuse to. And
[04:36] you know who I'm talking about. The
[04:39] phonies, the phonies, the fugazies, the
[04:43] for flushers, the synthetic, the
[04:45] artificial.
[04:47] Candace Owens understands power in a way
[04:50] most commentators do not. She
[04:53] understands that power is not just held
[04:55] by governments or corporations or media
[04:58] companies. Power also lives in the
[05:02] social penalties that keep ordinary
[05:05] people quiet. The fear of being called
[05:08] names, the fear of losing access, the
[05:09] fear of losing everything monetarily,
[05:11] the fear of I don't think that's not a
[05:14] fear. The fear of being labeled
[05:16] difficult. She confronted that power
[05:19] directly and showed others how weak it
[05:23] really is once you stop feeding it.
[05:26] She's a hate mark. I'm surprised you
[05:28] what is she a racist? An anti-semite.
[05:30] She's you name it. She's it. They're
[05:33] coming at her.
[05:35] And Tucker who's a close second on his
[05:39] best day can't get near her. That is why
[05:42] her critics scream instead of argue.
[05:45] They're not responding to her point or
[05:47] to her. They're responding to the threat
[05:50] she represents. A woman who will not
[05:53] bend. A black conservative woman who
[05:57] refuses to play the role assigned to
[06:00] her. A thinker who doesn't outsource her
[06:04] conscience. That combination breaks the
[06:07] script. And when the script breaks, the
[06:11] operators panic. Oh, dear friends, there
[06:15] is something deeply American about what
[06:17] she does and has done and will do. It
[06:20] echoes the town square, the pamphlete,
[06:24] the citizen speaker who who believes the
[06:28] public can handle the truth without
[06:30] being managed. She talks like a person
[06:33] talking to other people, not like a
[06:35] consultant talking to focus groups.
[06:39] Phony, synthetic.
[06:42] She doesn't well up on Q. She doesn't
[06:44] give you a Tammy Fay. She's the real
[06:47] McCoy. And that is why her words travel
[06:50] and why they mean something and why
[06:52] you've responded. They sound like things
[06:55] people already feel, but we're told they
[06:57] were not allowed to say. And remember,
[07:01] I'm not talking about whether she is
[07:02] even correct or not. That people can
[07:06] argue about that, but to get to the
[07:07] argument about whether you're correct,
[07:09] you've got to have the guts to say it in
[07:10] the first place.
[07:12] Can someone exposes a lie that has
[07:14] dominated public life for too long? The
[07:17] lie that dissent equals hate. The lie
[07:20] that questions
[07:23] um
[07:25] equal violence. The the lie that
[07:27] obedience equals virtue. You know, Ca
[07:30] Candace Candace destroys
[07:33] and dismantles those lies simply by
[07:36] refusing to obey them. She asks basic
[07:40] questions. She she points out
[07:42] contradictions. She notices patterns.
[07:45] She does not flinch when the room gets
[07:49] uncomfortable. And that alone is
[07:52] revolutionary now. And what she gives
[07:56] and what she gives to people and her
[07:57] fans and her followers, her acolytes is
[07:59] permission. Permission to notice,
[08:01] permission to say no, permission to
[08:03] trust their own eyes. And that is the
[08:06] real contagion. Not her opinions, but
[08:08] her posture. Stand up straight. Speak
[08:11] slowly. Speak plainly. Take the hit.
[08:15] Move on. People watching realize that
[08:18] the sky doesn't fall when you tell the
[08:20] truth. You're respected. The mob moves
[08:23] on to the next target. Life continues.
[08:26] Self-respect remains. No, in fact, it it
[08:29] it blossoms. And there is also
[08:32] generosity in what she does.
[08:34] She doesn't hoard courage. She models
[08:38] it. She wants others to pick up on what
[08:41] she's doing and pick it up and use it.
[08:44] And you can hear it when she speaks.
[08:46] There's an invitation there. Not worship
[08:48] me, but join me. Not I am special, but
[08:52] you can do this too. That that is
[08:55] leadership in its oldest form. Candace
[08:58] Owens also reminds us on this holiday
[09:02] Christmas Eve that patriotism is not
[09:05] submission to authority. It is loyalty
[09:08] to principles. She doesn't confuse the
[09:12] flag with the bureaucrats who hide
[09:14] behind it. She doesn't confuse the
[09:18] nation with the people who temporarily
[09:21] control institutions and government
[09:25] halls.
[09:27] And that distinction that distinction
[09:29] matters. It's how it's how free
[09:32] societies renew themselves instead of
[09:34] decaying into managed democracies where
[09:38] dissent is tolerated only in theory. Oh
[09:43] my friends, merry Christmas on this
[09:47] Christmas Eve from a woman whose courage
[09:50] has cost her and that matters too. It
[09:53] would be easy to praise her if there
[09:55] were no price attached, but there has
[09:57] been a price that is incalculable.
[10:01] Inane, colossal smears, attacks,
[10:03] isolation, threats, attempts to erase
[10:06] her through erasure,
[10:09] attempts to scare others away from her.
[10:11] She absorbed it and kept going. That is
[10:14] not performative bravery. That is
[10:17] character. You don't see people double
[10:20] down today. Again, she may ultimately be
[10:25] wrong. She may ultimately not
[10:27] necessarily project something that you
[10:29] agree with. That's not the point. She's
[10:32] got balls.
[10:36] That's it. Pardon my French. She also
[10:40] shows that strength doesn't require
[10:42] cruelty. She can be sharp. She can be
[10:45] quickwitted and snappy with her tongue.
[10:47] She can she can she can be rapier. She
[10:49] can she can use her tongue as a lance
[10:52] without being mindless.
[10:54] She can be firm without being
[10:56] hysterical. She doesn't need By the way,
[10:59] her male compatriots, those are the ones
[11:01] losing. They're You know who I'm talking
[11:04] about. I mean, they just come unglued.
[11:06] She She's like this. She never loses.
[11:10] She doesn't need to dehumanize opponents
[11:12] to defeat bad ideas. And in a culture
[11:14] that thrives on rage and clicks and
[11:18] algorithmic anger, that restraint is
[11:22] itself a form of discipline.
[11:25] There is a lesson here for anyone paying
[11:28] attention. You don't need a platform to
[11:31] start. You need a spine. You need guts.
[11:34] You need intrepidity. Platforms come and
[11:37] go, but integrity compounds. And the
[11:41] people who last are not the ones who
[11:43] timed the market market perfectly, so to
[11:46] speak. They're the ones who refuse to
[11:48] lie when lying was easier. It's easier
[11:51] just to shut up and move along. No hits,
[11:54] no runs, no errors.
[11:57] So my dear dear member of the nation of
[12:00] the conspiratorium, I thank you and I
[12:02] say to you on this Christmas Eve, the
[12:04] gift that Candace Owens gives is not
[12:08] comfort. It is something better. It is
[12:11] resolve. It is the reminder, my dear
[12:13] friend, that ordinary citizens still
[12:15] matter. That words still matter. That
[12:18] courage is still possible even when even
[12:21] when the incentives are stacked against
[12:24] it. We can all learn from that. Speak up
[12:27] at work when something is wrong. Push
[12:30] back when
[12:32] language is being used to confuse
[12:35] instead of clarify. Defend someone being
[12:38] unfairly targeted. Ask the question
[12:42] everyone else is avoiding.
[12:44] Tell the truth to your kids. Tell the
[12:47] truth to them instead of outsourcing it
[12:49] to screens and slogans. These are small
[12:52] acts, but they add up. And that is how
[12:55] cultures change. My friend, on this
[12:58] Christmas Eve, I say to you that Candace
[13:00] did not wait for permission from
[13:01] history. She acted in real time. That is
[13:04] the difference between spectators and
[13:06] participants. America was not built was
[13:09] not built by people who waited to be
[13:12] validated. It was built by people who
[13:15] risked being wrong in public. She stands
[13:19] in that tradition whether her critics
[13:22] like it or not. Remember that. So on
[13:24] this quiet day and quiet night when
[13:27] families gather and the year winds down,
[13:31] it is worth saying plainly
[13:33] that her example matters. Not because
[13:36] she's perfect,
[13:38] but because she's present, she's real.
[13:41] She's authentic. Because she showed up
[13:44] when it counted. Because she reminded
[13:46] people that fear is a terrible ruler and
[13:49] a lousy moral guide.
[13:53] That is a real Christmas gift. That is
[13:56] it. No batteries required, no expiration
[13:59] date, just a reminder that courage and
[14:02] bold
[14:03] are contagious and that the country
[14:06] still belongs to those willing to stand
[14:08] up for something they believe in and
[14:09] speak like free Americans. Remember
[14:12] that. And to you dear friend, to you
[14:14] dear member of the conspiratorium
[14:18] from Mrs. L and me to you and yours.
[14:23] Remember what this day is and remember
[14:25] how much we've been through and how we
[14:28] provide this wonderful
[14:31] consortium, this conspiratorium, this
[14:34] cabal, this cadre, this convocation,
[14:37] this coven, this cadre. I'm being
[14:40] illiterative here, but it's true. That's
[14:42] who we are. We're just plain old folks.
[14:46] We're just plain old folks. citizen
[14:49] patriots, lovers of liberty, just common
[14:51] sense folks who walk around and say,
[14:53] "You know what? That's not right." And
[14:55] that's all we've been about is just
[14:57] saying when something is not right.
[15:00] That's all. And I respect you. And
[15:03] remember, I've got your back.
[15:06] You don't have to be right. You that we
[15:10] you you can't live your life by saying,
[15:11] "I'm not going to say anything because
[15:13] what if I'm wrong?" Risk that. But
[15:16] whatever you do, don't sit back and just
[15:18] say, "Maybe, maybe now is not the time.
[15:22] Maybe I I just it's so easy just to play
[15:26] it easy." I keep saying no hits, no
[15:28] runs, no errors, no nothing venture,
[15:31] nothing gain.
[15:33] We're not going to do that. So anyway,
[15:35] enough with me. Enough with this. Happy
[15:37] happy happy happy day. Merry Christmas.
[15:40] Merry merry New Year's Eve to you and
[15:43] yours. It's been a wild year. And you
[15:46] know what? It's going to be even wilder.
[15:49] And you know what? You can give to me,
[15:51] the gift, the gift among Filipino
[15:54] Krueger rans,
[15:56] I just made that up, is to like this
[15:59] video and to subscribe. And in the
[16:02] section that I've provided, as I
[16:04] normally do, your kind words and
[16:06] thoughtful pros are all I ask for.
[16:09] That's it.
[16:11] Have a great day. As a great Cam Fong as
[16:14] Chinho said on Hawaii 5, we're all in
[16:17] this together, brother. Remember that.
[16:19] And until we meet again, might be later
[16:21] on today. You never know. I ask you
[16:23] right now, my dear friends, to comment
[16:26] as you see fit.
