45:29Now PlayingIn this episode of "Hawk Droppings," Hawk delves into the controversial film "2000 Mules," which purports to provide evidence that the 2020 election was stolen through ballot harvesting. He meticulously debunks the film's claims, revealing its faulty methodology, misleading assertions, and lack of credible evidence. Hawk exposes the film's creators, Dinesh D'Souza and the organization True the Vote, detailing their history of spreading misinformation, engaging in voter suppression tactics, and facing legal consequences for their actions.
Hawk also provides a scathing critique of Dinesh D'Souza, the filmmaker behind "2000 Mules." He outlines D'Souza's controversial career, including his time in the Reagan administration, his felony conviction for illegal campaign contributions, and his pardon by Donald Trump. Hawk dissects several of D'Souza's books, highlighting their offensive and inaccurate content, such as defending slave owners and blaming the American left for 9/11. He emphasizes that D'Souza's work, including his documentaries, is primarily driven by financial gain rather than truth.
Throughout the episode, Hawk underscores his main point: "It's always about the grift." He argues that figures like D'Souza and organizations like True the Vote exploit the fears and gullibility of the Republican base for financial gain. He cites numerous examples, from the $10 million earned by "2000 Mules" in its first two weeks to True the Vote's failed attempts to raise millions for various causes. Hawk concludes by promoting his merchandise store's Pride collection, with proceeds benefiting the Kaleidoscope Youth Center in Columbus, Ohio (kycohio.org). KYC is a non-profit that supports LGBTQIA+ youth in the red state of Ohio.
