5. 0:13Wednesday everyone yeah
6. 0:14do not adjust the TV I simply got better
7. 0:17looking since you saw me on the five a
8. 0:19few hours ago if it keeps happening I'm
9. 0:22gonna change the name of this show to
10. 0:23the 10.
11. 0:26I don't need those people
12. 0:29tonight I want to talk about something
13. 0:30that might not be on your radar but
14. 0:32we'll be soon
15. 0:33affirmative action that's right in
16. 0:35college admissions which is Advanced
17. 0:38more unqualified people than the last
18. 0:39name Biden
19. 0:42on Monday the Supreme Court heard two
20. 0:43cases challenging the race-centric
21. 0:45policies at the University of North
22. 0:47Carolina and Harvard or as I call them
23. 0:49my safety schools
24. 0:54the UNC case argues that using race and
25. 0:56admissions violates civil rights law and
26. 0:58the Constitution or what the Dems refer
27. 1:00to as that pain in the ass scrap a paper
28. 1:03Harvard is accused of discriminating
29. 1:05against Asian students that's right
30. 1:08Harvard you know the school that
31. 1:10produced Joy Reid Liz Warren Chuck
32. 1:13Schumer Barack Obama all of whom love to
33. 1:16call other people racist they're more
34. 1:18obsessed with color than a bomb Tech
35. 1:20cutting red and blue wires
36. 1:24so glad you got that
37. 1:27I just got to cut it out but while the
38. 1:29left loves to defend all minorities for
39. 1:31perceived racism with Asians they don't
40. 1:35give a
41. 1:37I spell it p-h-u-k
42. 1:43the Asian way
43. 1:48huh I'm culturally appropriate
44. 1:51but that's because Asians fill spaces in
45. 1:54great colleges in numbers that are
46. 1:56higher than the percentage of the
47. 1:57general population so it's a great
48. 2:00message for today's youth work hard and
49. 2:02sacrifice and someday you too can get
50. 2:04moved to the back of the line but that's
51. 2:07how punitive ideologies work those who
52. 2:09rise get pounded down in the name of
53. 2:11equity it's not about equality of
54. 2:13opportunity anymore but making everybody
55. 2:15suck at the same level
56. 2:17but if you want that kind of mediocrity
57. 2:19skip college and join the views live
58. 2:21audience
59. 2:24the oral arguments between lawyers for
60. 2:27both sides and the judges took almost
61. 2:28six hours but if anything done orally
62. 2:31takes that long
63. 2:34they must be doing it wrong
64. 2:37[Applause]
65. 2:39what was that
66. 2:40what's wrong with me
67. 2:43disgusting six hours six hours we pause
68. 2:47now to watch all of it
69. 2:55guess we loaded the wrong tape
70. 2:59at least they didn't load that other
71. 3:00tape labeled oral
72. 3:02anyway I'll just fire that person later
73. 3:06I pay it forward by doing it in front of
74. 3:08their children
75. 3:08[Laughter]
76. 3:12think the court will end up Banning the
77. 3:14practice liberal judges though are
78. 3:16against that saying you can't have
79. 3:17diversity without it now that would make
80. 3:19sense decades ago when Sandra Day
81. 3:21O'Connor once pointed out that
82. 3:22affirmative action was a temporary
83. 3:24remedy something you need until you
84. 3:26don't need it anymore like crutches for
85. 3:28a sprained ankle training wheels on a
86. 3:30bike or that topical cream Larry Kudlow
87. 3:32recommended
88. 3:35still have half a tube if anyone's
89. 3:36interested
90. 3:38Tyrus
91. 3:45ever believe anything is temporary
92. 3:46unless it's a statue the Bill of Rights
93. 3:48or a fetus
94. 3:50but everything therefore that always
95. 3:52sticks around though they get amnesia
96. 3:54when asked which party defended slavery
97. 3:56and founded the KKK meanwhile the
98. 3:58Court's majority quartz majority
99. 4:00questions the legal reasons for
100. 4:02affirmative action and when Harvard's
101. 4:04lawyers tried to downplay using racet
102. 4:06admissions chief justice Roberts stated
103. 4:08the obvious schools who ask kids to
104. 4:11check a box for their race that must
105. 4:13have some impact on admission decisions
106. 4:15or else it wouldn't be included you know
107. 4:17no one adds a box if they don't want you
108. 4:19to use that box take it from me I spent
109. 4:22four years inside a box
110. 4:26Audra cavuto's bed
111. 4:28anyway
112. 4:30but Roberts could have just said lawyers
113. 4:33I got two words for you Liz Warren
114. 4:36or one word Pocahontas after all she's
115. 4:40the white lady who faked being an Indian
116. 4:41to get into Harvard yeah Liz Warren or
117. 4:44as her tribal Elders call her dances
118. 4:47with mayonnaise
119. 4:51also if White Privilege is such a huge
120. 4:53problem why is a third of white students
121. 4:55pretending not to be white when applying
122. 4:57for college they tick the other boxes
123. 4:59with labels like mixed indigenous or
124. 5:02Rachel dollazole
125. 5:03foreign
126. 5:05so even they realize it's better to be
127. 5:06non-white than white and when you have
128. 5:08that kind of institutional racism you
129. 5:10don't need affirmative action anymore
130. 5:11it's like a it's like a sprinter faking
131. 5:14a limp so they can park in handicapped
132. 5:16spaces
133. 5:17now the conservative justices did know
134. 5:19they'd be willing to allow students to
135. 5:20discuss their race in their applications
136. 5:22but in essay form and that's what I did
137. 5:25to get into Berkeley I told them how I
138. 5:28was raised by a black family
139. 5:31which was kind of true having watched
140. 5:33every single episode of The Jeffersons
141. 5:38I love them
142. 5:40of course the left wasn't thrilled this
143. 5:44supreme court has no problem throwing
144. 5:46out precedent and ruling in a really
145. 5:48partisan political way if they say race
146. 5:50can't even be considered there next they
147. 5:53will say it shouldn't be considered in
148. 5:54the private sector the six justices
149. 5:56conservative justices on the Supreme
150. 5:58Court will let them do it because they
151. 6:01don't actually think the diversity is
152. 6:03important the people who have benefited
153. 6:05most from affirmative action have been
154. 6:07women who are white affirmative action
155. 6:10works for all those of us who are not
156. 6:13allowed to go to the institutions where
157. 6:16we thought we could do our best well get
158. 6:18used to all that because the left is
159. 6:20going to ram this idea home that the
160. 6:22court getting rid of affirmative action
161. 6:24will set the country back
162. 6:26well the way it's going now how can that
163. 6:29be a bad idea I say send it back to
164. 6:30January of 2017.
165. 6:39that was when uh 45 was sworn in Jamie
166. 6:47[Applause]

193. 8:08see what's going on and to be honest
194. 8:10it's just a scam and I I just get so
195. 8:12upset with people lying and doing things

226. 9:19yeah
227. 9:20never thanked her once for walking to
228. 9:22work yeah not even one yeah the worst
229. 9:24commute is walking from the West Side to
230. 9:27this studio yeah yeah
231. 9:29yeah got to dodge all that human yep
232. 9:33but just just real quick I would just
233. 9:35say on this story like first of all I
234. 9:37can't believe Harvard tried to try to
235. 9:39pull one over by having a
236. 9:41disproportionate amount of Asians at
237. 9:43their school like they're gonna find out
238. 9:45they're the best at math
239. 9:47um
240. 9:50and then I think that's all I have to
241. 9:52say because it's like I couldn't
242. 9:53possibly comment down I couldn't
243. 9:55possibly be whiter
244. 9:58you know what I mean like my I'm so like
245. 10:00for real my doctor told me when I go out
246. 10:01in the sun to wear SPF 100 did you even
247. 10:04know that was real it's for like babies
248. 10:06and me and um I squeezed the bottle a
249. 10:09t-shirt came up
250. 10:11[Laughter]
251. 10:16foreign
252. 10:18yeah I loved how he uh how he was able
253. 10:21to work that into this this affirmative
254. 10:23action segment by uh saying you know I
255. 10:26don't want to talk about this I'm white
256. 10:28you see I come from the athletic world
257. 10:30yes and there's no affirmative action
258. 10:31there no okay that doesn't make any
259. 10:33difference what your race is what the
260. 10:35color of your skin is first person the
261. 10:37Finish Line wins yeah I mean it's it is
262. 10:40about who's going to work the hardest
263. 10:41who's going to have the talent to be
264. 10:44able to get out there to win and I see
265. 10:46I've never been a really big fan of
266. 10:48affirmative action
267. 10:50um I think it's not good for our
268. 10:52universities a lot of these students who
269. 10:54go there
270. 10:55they see other students there and they
271. 10:58wonder why are they there I mean are
272. 11:00they there because of their Merit of
273. 11:02what they were able to do in their life
274. 11:03and the grades that they get that they
275. 11:05work so hard for Maybe not maybe they're
276. 11:07there because the color of their skin or
277. 11:09their ethnic background or whatever it
278. 11:10may be that's the problem I want the
279. 11:12best people qualified to go to that
280. 11:15school go to that school you know
281. 11:18um and no matter what the color of your
282. 11:19skin is your ethnic background maybe you
283. 11:22know uh
284. 11:23it served a purpose Tire what are you
285. 11:25doing I'm listening intently to you
286. 11:27babbling waiting for my question okay
287. 11:30what do you think Tyrus I think like I
288. 11:32said uh there was a time in this country
289. 11:35when affirmative action was necessary
290. 11:36because we had to evil even the playing
291. 11:39field but
292. 11:40we've gotten to a point now where if you
293. 11:42do the work you get the opportunity
294. 11:44America is about opportunity now and
295. 11:47here's the thing and I've seen this
296. 11:49firsthand as a teacher and just being
297. 11:51out when you culturally in your family
298. 11:54put an emphasis on education like a lot
299. 11:57of American families especially
300. 11:59African-American families and white
301. 12:00families they put we put our kids
302. 12:02interest on high stakes with no reward
303. 12:05like my son's gonna play in the NFL my
304. 12:07daughter's going to be an actress and a
305. 12:08singer everyone he's going to have a
306. 12:10whole those things are up to somebody
307. 12:12else
308. 12:13but when you put those work ethics in
309. 12:17math science and education like most
310. 12:19Asian families do that's the emphasis
311. 12:21being the doctor is the star not getting
312. 12:24a Sprites commercial when that is the
313. 12:26thing of course you will see if the
314. 12:28families put the effort in there they
315. 12:29are the ones who are going should be had
316. 12:31the first ones picked to go to college
317. 12:33because they did the work they didn't
318. 12:35they they emphasized what was important
319. 12:38and what their liberals do now with
320. 12:40affirmative action is they've reversed
321. 12:42it they don't use it to get groups in
322. 12:45they use it to divide and eliminate we
323. 12:47don't want to do this we want to
324. 12:48segregate this and and if you're from if
325. 12:50you're white and you're from Illinois
326. 12:51and you worked your ass off and maybe
327. 12:53you didn't play sports but all you did
328. 12:54is hit the books and you have the GPA
329. 12:56there is no reason you should not go to
330. 12:58that school based on opportunity and
331. 13:00Merit other than somebody sitting there
332. 13:01going no we can't have him because he's
333. 13:03white that is no difference than in the
334. 13:0560s saying no we can't have them because
335. 13:06he's black do you think do you think
336. 13:11like you open that statement up with at
337. 13:15one point affirmative action had its
338. 13:17place I agree with that statement it did
339. 13:19have it
340. 13:21um almost like today the woke World
341. 13:22we're living in okay
342. 13:25um we've kind of gone past affirmative
343. 13:27action I think and we have to kind of go
344. 13:29to the next step and it's the same thing
345. 13:31you're seeing right now with the whole
346. 13:33woke World
347. 13:34um people are sick of it it's just
348. 13:36ridiculous what they're what they're
349. 13:38doing have we passed that point much of
350. 13:40a bad thing let me I gotta get cat in
351. 13:42here I think you'd be great on the
352. 13:44Supreme Court you know why because you
353. 13:45already spend most of your day in a robe
354. 13:47arguing
355. 13:48[Laughter]
356. 13:50[Applause]
357. 13:50[Laughter]
358. 13:54a significant a significant part of it
359. 13:58yeah
360. 13:59it depends on what day like Sunday yes
361. 14:01yes good one thank you yeah that's true
362. 14:04I had no idea are you filming my
363. 14:06apartment
364. 14:07no comments yeah that's what I think
365. 14:09just don't move that champagne bottle
366. 14:12I think diversity is a good thing I also
367. 14:15just think there's other kinds of
368. 14:16diversity besides color of your skin and
369. 14:19your genitals yeah and I think those are
370. 14:22actually two of the least relevant
371. 14:23things in determining who someone is as
372. 14:26a person and apparently that makes me a
373. 14:28bigot that makes no sense to me I know
374. 14:31that some people have to go through
375. 14:32certain kinds of adversity in their
376. 14:34lives but there are other ways to find
377. 14:37out that someone's gone through that
378. 14:38like maybe an essay you know college
379. 14:41admissions never ask for those yeah
380. 14:43there's there's plenty of ways to figure
381. 14:45that out and at this point it doesn't
382. 14:46make any sense and there's really no
383. 14:47justification for it hey Sean Hannity
