for our daily cancellation today we are reaching back into ancient history all the way back to July 9th of 2024 now you might say that it's only a week ago but in social media time it may as well be half a century especially given what has transpired in the meantime be that as it may we have to talk about this for no other reason than uh I think it's funny and I I I saw this while I was away on vacation last week um I made a note that I wanted to make fun of it like I literally texted that note to my myself along with the link make fun of this next week and uh and if I make a note to myself I have to follow it so I'm going to stick to the plan come hell high water when I promise to mock something I will mock it that is my solemn oath so Becky Pringle is the president of the National Education Association she gave the keynote address at the Nea annual convention last week now I didn't watch the speech apart from the short clip I'm going to play in a moment but from what I understand it was mostly the sort of leftwing clap trap that you would expect from the teachers union president but she got a little bit worked up as she spoke and that led to this moment at the end of her speech watch we are the ones who hold steadfast to the belief of the plausibility of the possible we are the hes of all who did this work before us we must keep going Nea delegates we can do this work we must do this work we get to do this work we will do this work because our students are depending on us to win all the things Nea we have to win all the things all the things all the things our colleagues are depending on us to win all the things keep going Anya to preserve our Dem Ry we must win all the things delegates we won't go back we will keep going forward because we are the Nea we are the Nea we are the Nea and that's what we do thank you Nea thank you I love you so as you can see a triumphant exhilarating speech clearly inspired both in tone and content by the two great orators of our time uh CA Harris and Dwight Shu so she Begins by declaring and I quote we are the ones who hold steadfast to the belief of the plausibility of the possible the plausibility of the possible now many critics of this speech have said that this statement makes no sense but that's it's not true it does make sense it just doesn't mean anything okay it makes sense but doesn't mean anything there there's no actual thought or idea being conveyed here even though the words do basically fit together and form a legitimate sentence so you can you can listen to that and say well that's a sentence that's a that's a that's a a human English sentence that a person could say sure this again is the cha haris strategy and it's what distinguishes her brand of incoherence from Joe Biden's because in Biden's case the words don't fit together at all and often times the words aren't even real words so it's pure gibberish but Harris she's more interesting she uses real words and she combines them in grammatically valid ways but it all amounts to nothing and same in this case the plausibility of the possible technically speaking possible things are plausible right I mean something is possible if it could potentially happen something is plausible if it's credible or reasonable so you might say that if something could potentially occur then it's reasonable to believe that it could potentially occur so a possible scenario is also a plausible scenario there's no logical contradiction but there also isn't any substantive message being communicated there's no reason to say it okay there's no there's no point it's just it's just a thing that she said she might as well have stood up there and declared we hold steadfast to the belief in the bigness of things that are large now that isn't wrong exactly big things are large sure but it also isn't any kind of insight it isn't anything at all Saudi Arabia recently ended its 50e Petro dollar deal with the US which has the potential to weaken the US dollar since 1974 Saudi Arabia has sold oil solely in US Dollars which was huge for our global economic dominance now they want other options if there's less demand for the US dollar what happens to its value it's for reasons like this that I feel it's important to diversify some of your savings into gold and you can do that with the help of Birch gold right now

work before them therefore they must do this work they can do this work they get to do this work they will do this work they will work to do this work because the work they're doing is work that must be worked on and why well because they have to win all the things which things the things how many of the things all of them not most of the things no no no not 95% of the things all of the things that's what Becky Pringle has declared and she has declared it loudly and confidently and heroically what exactly is she declaring well she's declaring her declarations indeed she holds steadfast to the belief that declarations must be declared now although there is nothing at all being said here we can still learn something or at least we we can have what we already knew reinforced which is that our schools are being run by the shallowest most vapid people who've ever lived I mean we focus so much on the ideological and political bias and indoctrination in our schools and for good reason that is the most significant problem plaguing the education system uh it is the thing before anything else that ensures that I will never send my kids to public school but the second biggest problem and not necessarily a very distant second is the total intellectual bankruptcy of the people in charge and that clip in many ways encapsulates the whole public school experience it drags on feels like it will never end and by the end of it you wen't sure what the point of it even was there's one other thing to notice in this speech he says that uh one of the reasons that they must win all the things whatever the things are that must be won she must they must win them all is because it's um it's it's what is necessary in order to preserve our democracy now you might say that's just another slogan that she randomly tossed into this Buffet of vacuous platitudes and for the most part that's all it is um on the left the the word democracy has come to mean all the the stuff we want so to preserve our democracy therefore is to get all the stuff they want rather than the stuff they don't want but if we were to look for any deeper meaning which is perhaps a Fool's errand I think the deeper meaning would be this the left supports democracy when and only when it results in left-wing policies and helps to fulfill leftwing goals so it is not democracy itself that they're so fond of but rather the kind of culture and country that democracy might create and this is why they say for instance that a ballot measure that protects so-called quote unquote abortion rights is a win for democracy but Trump being elected president is somehow an attack on Democracy they're both democracy but one is the result they want and the other Isn't So democracy is a means to an end and on the left nothing has any value unless it is a means to an end what does this have to do with the schools well it has everything to do with the schools by indoctrinating the next generation of Americans they can preserve democracy in the sense of ensuring the results they want they can control the Democracy by shaping the people who participate in it that's what she means it's the only thing she said in that speech that means anything and it is the reason above all other reasons why the public school system should be totally abandoned and it's also why the teacher Union pres president Becky Pringle is today cancelled thanks for checking out this video if you'd like to listen to my full podcast on the go you can check out the Matt wall show on Apple podcast Spotify or wherever you get
