Hi, everybody. I am Monica Crowley in for Dinesh D'Souza on this holiday Friday.
I've been here all week and it's been absolutely fantastic.
Big thanks to Dinesh and Debbie for inviting me to join you this week.
It's been an honor and a privilege, especially as we're so close to Christmas.
So Merry Christmas, guys.
Thank you so much for being here.
Well, we are close to Christmas, so today I want to cover the left going too far and how they can't stop themselves from going too far.
I also want to deal with illegal immigration, the diseases, as well as the drugs coming across the border, and the fact that we are paying for our own destruction.
Few things incense me more than that, so we're going to take that apart as well.
Also, today we're going to be joined by my good friend, AJ Rice, who's got a new book called The Woking Dead.
We're going to take apart wokeness in a really important and fun conversation, not to be missed, Also, guys, please check out my podcast, The Monica Crowley Podcast, wherever you get your podcasts, Apple, Google, Spotify, Stitcher, wherever you get your shows.
Please join me on my journey in my podcast because I breathe absolute fire on The Monica Crowley Podcast.
I know you're going to love my show too.
Also, don't forget to check me out on social media.
On Instagram, I am at Monica Crowley underscore.
And on Twitter and through social, I am at Monica Crowley.
This is the Dinesh D'Souza Show.
The times are crazy and a time of confusion, division, and lies.
We need a brave voice of reason, understanding, and truth.
This is the Dinesh D'Souza podcast.
OK, guys, welcome back.
I am a happy warrior, but I have to tell you, so many things incense me.
And I try to cover them on this show for Dinesh and for my own podcast with a smile because I am a happy warrior.
But I get absolutely outraged when it's brought to my attention that you and I are paying for our own destruction.
So we pay a lot in taxes, right?
That tax money goes to paying for the salary of people like Merrick Garland, Joe Biden, Christopher Wray, the FBI, the DOJ, the IRS All of these government institutions and system operatives that are seeking our destruction, our removal from the political system and the political process, we're paying for that.
We're paying for that.
So the greatest trick that the communists ever pulled was, number one, infiltrating our own government and taking that over, and number two, getting us to pay for it.
Here is the latest outrage, and it has to do with the tsunami of illegal immigration being brought to us courtesy of Joe Biden, the globalists, and the left.
Understand something here, guys.
The wide open border, yes, of course, it's about flooding the zone, getting these people into the country, diluting the country.
So yes, of course, it's about flooding the zone and getting these tens of millions of illegals on a path to citizenship so that they will be able to vote.
In order to lock in a permanent Democrat voting majority so that we never again get a Republican president, never mind Republican governors or Republican-led Congress.
Forget it. Game over.
One-party state.
You know what a one-party state is?
Communism. We've talked a lot about that on the show today, right?
There is a reason, because that is the objective.
The other element to the wide open border here, guys, is the globalist agenda, which involves erasing borders.
Their objective, and here I'm talking about the globalists here in the United States, the Bill Gateses of the world, the Barack Obamas of the world, but also the international organizations like the World Economic Forum, the World Health Organization, the United Nations, they have their eyes on an even bigger prize.
They have to transform and destroy the United States and the West because we're the biggest of them all.
We're the biggest obstacle. But once that is accomplished, what comes next is a one-world government.
It's a one-world government with them at the top presiding over all of it.
You will simply be a serf.
You'll be a slave to the globalist system.
And a big part of that is erasing the world's borders by diluting national sovereignty, diluting national cultures, diluting national politics and systems and constitutions, removing all of that, destroying national sovereignty, and creating this one world government.
And the way they're doing that across the West is throwing open the borders and allowing all of these third world refugees, illegal immigrants, military operatives to flood all of our societies.
Again, dilute the culture.
Is there a French culture anymore?
Is there a German culture anymore?
Is there an American culture anymore?
It's slipping away really fast.
That's why you're seeing the rise again of Donald Trump.
And across Europe, you're seeing the rise of conservative right-wing parties because the people have had enough.
They don't want to lose their culture.
They don't want to lose their country.
But the hour is very late.
It's not too late, but it's very late.
All right, speaking of illegal immigration and the absolute catastrophe at the southern border, courtesy of Joe Biden and the globalists, get this. In Phoenix, their major airport is called the Sky Harbor International Airport, and it has now become a hub for illegal immigrants who have come across the border. They're brought up from the Arizona sectors, they're brought to the airport,
and then they're put on planes. And not like cargo jets, they're put on Delta flights, and they're being put on American Airlines flights, and maybe others too.
We know this now because of Ari Hoffman, who is a West Coast editor for The Post Millennial.
He's also a radio talk show host.
And Ashley St.
Clair, who's a contributor for The Great Babylon Bee.
Both of them have gone through the Phoenix airport in the last few days and have put up on X and other social media photos of these illegal immigrants by the thousands sleeping on the floor and In the airport, and also boarding their planes.
Okay, again, by the hundreds, if not thousands.
Ashley St. Clair posted a video, and here's what she wrote, quote, My Delta flight from Phoenix appears to be flying migrants who cross the border and are being shipped to New York.
When I asked a Delta representative if this was the case, his response was, what does it matter?
They're humans too.
What is happening?
She wrote. Then she posted another video of a long line of illegals waiting to board her flight.
And she said, I'm at the Phoenix airport right now.
I'm waiting to board my flight to New York to JFK. And it looks like we have a whole lot of migrants who are also boarding this flight that the U.S. taxpayers are paying for.
Mm-hmm. Then she writes about sanctuary cities, and then she wanted to know from Delta if any of these illegals have been screened for disease, which is a very legitimate question.
Speaking of, get this, federal and local officials are now issuing health alerts for communicable diseases tied to the wave of illegal immigrants.
So remember early on when President Trump, it may have been his first statement in 2015 after announcing for president, and he was talking about the border, talking about illegal immigration and he said, they're not sending their best.
They're sending murderers and rapists and people full of disease that hasn't been checked.
And he got a massive pile on.
People just attacked him for that.
Oh, he's a racist. He's a bigot.
And that line of attack continues to this day.
But this is what he was getting at.
Okay? You, if you were not vaccinated during COVID and you lived in New York City, you couldn't go out for lunch.
You had to show your papers.
Were you vaxxed?
Show your papers.
Just like a good totalitarian state, right?
Well, here, now, these people are bringing in all manner of disease, okay?
Here's what the federal and local officials are now warning of.
Polio. Big spike in polio.
Big spike in chickenpox.
Big spike in monkeypox.
Remember that? Hasn't gone away.
Coming across the border along with fentanyl, murders, drug trafficking, child trafficking, and everything else.
They're also alerting to COVID-19, of course.
And if that all weren't enough, the feds and local officials are warning against a rise in syphilis.
These people are bringing in disease left and right, diseases that we have eradicated, like polio, diseases that you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy, like syphilis.
These people are bringing it in.
The federal government is allowing it.
These are diseases that can do enormous damage, if not kill you, in some cases.
But I guess if they're not worried about the mass of fentanyl crumbling across the border, killing well over 100,000 Americans every single year, then they're certainly not worried about you contracting syphilis.
And the idea that we are all paying for this is the most outrageous part of this entire equation.
Nothing gets me irritated more than me paying, busting my tail, working so hard, paying my taxes, abiding by the law to pay for my own destruction and the destruction of the country that I love so much.
Oh, hell no. Hell no.
How's that for a Christmas message?
Hell no. All right, we're going to take a quick break.
When we come back, we're going to be joined by A.J. Rice talking about wokeism and how it's really communism.
And we're going to have a lot of laughs, too.
So stay tuned for that.
Okay, guys, Christmas is just a couple of days away, and I know we're all anticipating some great gifts, but I can't think of a better gift than feeling good again.
It's better than getting a new car, right?
When you're feeling really good.
Here's an idea, relief factor.
Relief factor is the gift that helps people relieve pain and feel good once again.
Relief factor is a daily supplement that helps your body fight back against pain.
100% drug-free, relief factor was developed by doctors searching for a better alternative for pain.
Relief factor uses a unique formula of natural ingredients like turmeric and omega-3s to help reduce or eliminate the everyday aches and pains you're experiencing.
Whether it's neck, back, joint or muscle pain, Relief Factor can help you feel better.

See how Relief Factor can help you with their 3-week quick start kit.
It's only $19.95 and it comes with Relief Factor's Feel Better or Your Money Back Guarantee.
So why not give it a try?
Visit relieffactor.com or call 800-4-RELIEF. That's 800, the number 4, RELIEF. When you feel the difference, you know it works.
Welcome to my show!
Because they are so ideologically driven and because they're on such an ideological and really revolutionary jihad to change the United States and the West, they cannot stop themselves from going too far.
This is what I mean about jumping the shark.
They will always take the revolution a step or two too far and And that attracts widespread attention to what they are doing, and then you have a catastrophe for them.
But it awakens the rest of us.
For example, after 9-11, you know, the terrorist organizations like al-Qaeda that carried out 9-11 were in conflict with but complementary to groups like Muslim Brotherhood.
A Muslim Brotherhood operating out of Egypt is sort of like the umbrella organization for all of these terrorist organizations.
After the attacks of September 11th, the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood were really ticked off.
They were angry.
They were mad. Why?
They were angry at al-Qaeda because they said al-Qaeda's jumped the shark.
Now, no, the Muslim Brotherhood leaders did not actually use the phrase jump the shark, but they came out and, or at least it was leaked, that those leaders of the MB were really worried that because Al-Qaeda had carried out this catastrophic mass attack that had killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington DC, that it would attract the West's attention
to what the Muslim Brotherhood was trying to do, which is infiltrate the West and actually lead to world domination for Islam, and actually lead to world domination for Islamism, Islamic supremacy.
So the Muslim Brotherhood's approach was infiltrate Western societies, reproduce, take over demographically, but do this all under the radar.
Get into these societies, demand more and more rights, and then eventually we'll get to a tipping point and we will control these Western societies.
But for the Muslim Brotherhood, it was a longer-term project done in a much quieter and more insidious kind of way than an absolute catastrophic violent attack like we saw on September 11th.
So there was this conflict, right?
But the Muslim Brotherhood was like, do not jump the shark.
And then, oh man, you jump the shark.
And now we have all of these eyes on us.
We've got the West aware of what our grand plan is.
And now they have turned their attention on Like a slow-moving gun turret, like in Saving Private Ryan, you know, when the Nazi sharpshooter realized that the bullets from our heroes were coming from a certain location, you would slowly and very menacingly see the gun turret start to move to target our heroes.
Well, it's the same thing here with the enemy within.
The enemy within has now jumped the shark.
And now they have all of this attention on them.
So yes, of course, it's the lawfare coming against President Trump.
Four indictments, 91 counts.
They want the man in prison for 750 years.
Now we're focused on the weaponization of the legal system, the DOJ, the FBI, the court system.
But we also have our attention on everything else as well.
And later in the show, as I mentioned, we're going to talk to A.J. Rice about wokeism and his book about how because they jumped the shark with wokeism, which is really just cultural Marxism, our gun turrets have turned and now we're focused on it.
Our attention is leveled on them.
So they've actually done us a favor here in going too far, going too far on Trump, going too far on the wokeism, the Marxism, coming after our kids, taking over the schools.
They've jumped the shark.
So now it's a question of what we're going to do with it.
So last night, I was thinking about two things that Chuck Schumer had to say in recent years, because again, they can't not do it.
They always have to tell you exactly what they're thinking and what they have planned.
So remember during the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court nomination process, and they put that man through absolute hell by having these women come forward like Christine Blasey Ford, etc., to smear and attack him in an effort to stop him from getting to the court.
But I remember at one point Chuck Schumer said, and you, Kavanaugh, will reap the whirlwind!
Really? Okay, that sounds like a threat to me.
Again, telling us who they are and what they're capable of.
You will reap the whirlwind.
All right. The second Chuck Schumer quote that came to my mind is when he was going after President Trump several years ago, and he was saying that Trump was going after the intelligence community.
And he was on a Sunday morning show and he said something like, well, that's really stupid because the Intel community has eight ways to Sunday to get you.
Again, they tip their hand and they tell you, yeah, we're ready to weaponize the intel community.
It's probably already weaponized to go and get Donald Trump, which in fact they did and continue to do.
So everything they tell you is either a straight up lie or it's the truth disguised as some sort of attack on you, right?
Right. But they have jumped the shark here, and the consequence for them is going to be that now the American people are awake to what they have done, and we're really seeing a tremendous pushback.
Now we are getting actual evidence and we're getting, it's several years too late, but we are getting evidence about January 6th, which is one of the big cases now going up to the Supreme Court.
January 6th, we've got a representative in Congress named Clay Higgins.
He is phenomenal.
He's a former law enforcement officer, a former sheriff, and he now is getting all kinds of evidence that he's bringing forward about the fact that it was a feds' erection.
It wasn't an actual insurrection, it was a feds' erection.
And now he's bringing forth evidence about ghost buses filled with federal agents and informants and operatives being driven into the crowd on January 6th to get the crowd all riled up and then waved into the Capitol building.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of what we now know about January 6th.
So again, they are capable of tremendous destruction and damage.
And they can't not do it on their way to the ultimate objective, which is the destruction of the Constitution, free market economics, and individual freedom.
Really, the destruction of the country.
But they always hit a wall and they always jump the shark.
And right now, because I want to leave you with hope as we go into Christmas, they have jumped the shark.
And that is the great news.
All right, let's hit a quick break.
When we come back, I want to deal with the latest on illegal immigration.
This is not to be believed.
I've got more outrages coming at you.
Because don't you really hate when you're paying for your own destruction?
That's something that really fries my behind.
And we're going to deal with that next.

Okay, guys, welcome back.
Well, you know, we're just a couple of days away from Christmas, and we've covered some very important, but very heavy and dark stuff on the show this week.
But I thought since we're going into Christmas, that now it's time to lighten things up, have a little festive conversation, a little fun, spread a little cheer around, right?
Because, again, we're going into a big holiday week.
So who better... To help me do that, then my good friend, AJ Rice.
AJ is the CEO of Publius PR, which is a premier communications firm in Washington, DC. AJ is also a brand manager, a star whisperer, we're going to have to talk about that, and a media influencer who has produced some of the biggest superstars in conservative media, including yours truly.
We have become good friends and have been for a very long time.
You can find him on social media at Publius PR, also the website PubliusPR.com.
But he's also the author of a brand new book, which you're going to see right behind him there.
It's called The Woking Dead.
It's an important book, and it's also a very funny book, because if we're going to change the country and the culture, we've got to have some laughs too.
Otherwise, it's too much, right?
The website for the book is wokingdeadbook.com.
The book is available wherever books are sold, amazon.com, the website, etc.
So please go check it out.
Makes a great last-minute gift for For your friends and your family, and they don't have to be patriots.
Okay, you can get this book for the liberals in your life, the Marxists, because when they read it, they might learn something.
AJ joins us now.
Hi, my friend. Hello, Monica, my sister.
Great to be here. I'm a little early for Kwanzaa, but here I am.
You're right on time for Christmas, my friend.
So it's great to have you here and talk to you about the book and so much more.
So let's start with the book, The Woking Dead.
Tell us about the book, and we're going to get into it, but I just want to top line from you about what the book is and why you wanted to take on the subject of wokeness.
Well, look, you know, as you know, and, you know, it's great to be with this audience, Dinesha the Patriot, you know, his entire team.
And over the years, I've worked either tangentially with him or even I even did some media for his daughter's book.
So it's great to be here. Big shout out.
Merry Christmas to everyone. Our old friend, Rush Limbaugh, used to say that to fight the left, you have to do it, you know, with irreverent humor to illustrate truth.
And yes, I'm poking fun at the many flavors of wokeism.
We can get into that. You know, it used to be like Baskin and Robbins flavors.
Now, because we're in a target-rich environment, it's like the Crayola 64 box at this point, right?
You could rewrite this book every day with all the different craziness that is constantly erupting from the earth from these people.
But you've got to poke fun of them, right?
You've got to poke fun of them. We can all make the Aristotelian brilliant arguments we want.
And that'll be somewhere.
But to hang a joke, to hang the yoke of a joke around their neck, to poke fun at them.
To mock them and to try to not be mean, although I'm from Philadelphia, so I can get mean sometimes.
You've got to have fun with it.
And your brand has always been a happy warrior brand.
You smile through your up-close-and-personal destruction of the left.
So for me, it was important to try to catalog a lot of the different places wokeism comes from.
Be it Hollywood, sports, academia, and many other places, quite frankly.
Places that used to be safe for conservatives like the church and the Pentagon.
And to do it in a humorous way, but word of warning, ladies and gentlemen, some people say the definition of humor is tragedy plus time.
Other people say...
I think it was Carlin or Pryor used to say, your job is to transform horror into humor.
That is the definition of comedy.
So that's what we try to do here.
Sometimes it's gallows humor, but we have fun along the way, even if it's heading to our own destruction culturally.
Yes, and we're certainly there.
And so now, at least the battle has been joined by people like you and me, you know, doing broadcasts, doing podcasts, writing books like The Woking Dead.
At least now we're part of the fight.
Because for decades, AJ, we have allowed the Marxist left just to completely dominate everything that Because we were out there just doing our own things,
right? So at least now, I think, and thanks to books like yours and shows like this and my podcast, people are now really honing in on the threat that we're facing.
Do you find that to be true?
Yeah, I mean, you hit the nail on the head.
At the core of wokeism, which is not an old word, but the behavior, the pathology, what I call the peer contagion of the zombie virus of wokeism, that's not new.
It last popped up when you were fighting the murky brown pantsuit mafia in the 90s You were on shows you were on Fox News when it started you were on I believe real-time with Bill Maher We were fighting what then in the in the second term of Bill Clinton was political correctness the political correctness movement Political correctness is one of the flavors of woke ism But like you said the core of this is cultural Marxism, right?
And there's philosophers like Antonio Gramsci and others.
But to look at the beginnings of this, the original ingredients of this, you do have to go back 100 years, and you have to study what we call now the Long March.
And what was that? Well, around World War I, you had Woodrow Wilson, you had Margaret Sanger, you had the progressive movement.
They said to themselves, we're never going to get a blue-collar revolution here in the United States because a bunch of bricklayers and longshoremen are not going to overthrow the government.
Like, you know, there's no Romanoffs here to hang.
So we need to infect something else.
Well, what was that? Early radio, the silent picture industry, Broadway, public sector unions, the Democrat Party.
And then, you know, they're patient.
So they do the long march.
And here we are. Ladies and gentlemen, we're fighting these sane people now.
These are the sane people now.
The only difference, of course, is they have big tech protecting them.
Which they didn't have back then.
Can you imagine if Stalin and Hitler had big tech protecting them, picking winners and losers, shadow banning people?
I mean, and that's what we're up against, because for 100 years, it has been an assault on the language, and in particular, Western civilization, the middle class, and of course, the nuclear family.
Yes, that's a really important point.
I want to hit a quick break.
A.J., much more with A.J. Rice and his new book, The Woking Dead, on the other side.
Sit tight. Well, if it's the holidays, it's time to go to the movies, right?
Well, this Christmas, the brand new film from director George Clooney arrives.
It's a rags to riches absolute crowd pleaser based on the number one New York Times best-selling book.
The inspirational true story about one of the most difficult sports in the world and the 1936 University of Washington college rowing team that competed for gold at the summer games in Berlin will absolutely inspire you.
This team rode out of need, need to eat, need to sleep and it gave them an edge that captures the power of working together to overcome all odds while rowing for America.
You know, guys, they don't make movies like this anymore.
It's so filled with wholesome content that it makes it the ideal multi-generational movie for the holidays.
Joel Engerton and Callum Turner star in this exciting and incredible story of courage, hard work, and determination showcasing America at its very best.
Believe in each other.
Believe in the impossible.
The Boys in the Boat.
It opens on Christmas Day in theaters only.
So get your tickets now.
Okay, we're back with my longtime friend and radio producer.
We're going to talk about that as well, because AJ's got a couple of secrets about yours truly, including something called Naked Fridays, which we will discuss.
But before we do that, I want to continue with AJ about his fantastic book called The Woking Dead, WokingDeadBook.com.
It's a great gift. You know, you mentioned so much in the first part of our conversation here at AJ, and I want to unpack it so that everybody kind of understands.
You know, you talk about the need for humor, and you invoked Rush.
Rush was so good at weaving in humor and skits to keep people's attention.
To lighten it up a little bit, because this is really heavy-duty stuff, and we're talking about the destruction of the country, using humor, but also using mockery, sarcasm.
And when you were laying it out that way, I thought about Saul Alinsky, who is the godfather of the activist left.
And he wrote a book called Rules for Radicals.
One of the most critical roles for the leftist radicals that he laid out is sort of exactly that.
It's mocking like our side, right?
Mocking, pick the target, freeze it, humiliate it with mockery and criticism and relentless attack.
So that's their MO. Talk to us a little bit, and you write about this in The Woking Dead, about how we can turn that around on them because you've done it very effectively in your book.
Yeah, I mean, look, the Republicans and conservatives, libertarians, activists, you know, had some growing pains moving from the Reagan era to the Trump era.
But, you know, one of the things that we were crying out for was not, you know, and God bless him, the, you know, the dignified fighter, the fighter that won't go there.
There's plenty of places John McCain wasn't going to go.
And then, you know, Mr.
Magical Underwear, Pierre Delecto, you know, I mean, he had a Linguini spot.
He had a Linguini spot.
There was places he wasn't going to go.
Now, granted, there were places the Bushes weren't going to go and Bob Dole, you know, Dole and Bush Sr.
are from another era. I'll give them a pass because they saved civilization in World War II. But with the modern Republican Party, one of the reasons you got Trump is because political correctness and the control of the language had gotten so crazy that we needed, like, white blood cells to fight the infection.
We needed something like the true vaccine, okay?
Trump came in like the true vaccine that we needed for the culture, where he was just, he threw out all the rules.
Every time people got outraged, the poll numbers went up.
And I truly believe that he is as popular as he is because he has become a counterculture icon.
Remember when the left collected these people?
I mean, I remember whether it's the Burning Broad and Marching on Chicago all the way through the steampunk era and the goth era and, you know, the Dead Kennedys and the Ramones.
But even gangster rap music then in the early 90s.
Trump has basically become that.
And what conservatives have done is the one thing they have started to learn from the left is do not accept the premise from these people.
Make fun of them. Mock them.
You just mentioned Alinsky.
That's fine. The tactic can be used by us, too.
I truly believe that Trump, the OG from the Golden Escalator, the reason he...
Even that first speech, right?
They don't come here for love.
They're not sending their best.
To this day, they're still not sending their best.
And you can make that speech today.
So Trump, I think...
Caught lightning in the bottle the way he did and he still has it captured like Zeus because of fighting political correctness, immigration, and the trade in China stuff.
I think those three things, I think the Republican Party got tired of just being, you know, sad sack conservatives, you know, go home, drink a little green tea, have a little tapioca pudding, and better luck next time.
But that is not...
What Trump and the Trumpian supporters are going to do.
They're never going to do it.
He didn't do it as a businessman.
He's certainly not going to do it in politics.
Well, that's exactly right.
And because he's not one of them, and in fact came out of two different universes, real estate and entertainment, they don't know how to handle him.
They don't know how to combat him, and they throw in the kitchen sink at the man.
But he's not just a politician.
He's actually leading a movement, right?
They don't know how to combat that either.
I mean, they're trying. They're throwing the entire weaponized government at us, including the DOJ and the FBI and the IRS. But there's one thing, and we touched on it earlier, AJ, which is the use of humor to disarm the other side.
So the left with all of the late night shows and Jon Stewart and Bill Maher, who's coming around to our side, we could talk about him, but the left has the lock on the culture, movies, television, music, the late night shows, comedy,
etc., I think we're good to go.
Yeah, absolutely. I mean, there's no mold for this man.
If there was one, it was shattered long ago.
And, you know, you talk about these late night hosts, and I don't include Marr in this because Marr knows that the Woking Dead will put him up in front of a firing squad, too.
And there are others. Ricky Gervais, Chappelle, we could name them.
They kind of get it.
You know, they know the world, you know, free speech for everyone or no one.
And with Trump, you know, you talk about the late night host, I mean, this is the laziest comedy in history, right?
They basically got their old, you know, Sarah Palin notebooks out and just erased her name and wrote Trump's name in because they can't figure out how to get him.
They can't do the Bush jokes.
They try the Palin jokes.
But if you look at the monochromatic late-night hosts, these are all a bunch of doughy, white, Gen X, burpy males.
You all know it's true.
You all know the Beta Brigade at night.
And they're all singing off the same song sheet.
It's so pedantic and lazy.
It's so lazy.
And they're afraid. They're afraid because of the parent companies that own these shows.
I mean, Kimmel flat-out said it.
Himmel's on ABC. ABC's owned by Disney.
He said, you know, the ABC execs called me in.
They told me, look, you know, I'm not going to stop making fun of Trump.
I don't care if I lose my audience.
I don't care if you fire me.
I'm not going to stop attacking traditional Americans and Trump supporters.
So, and he basically said that to his bosses at ABC. And I guess Disney's okay with that.
So we have to vote with our wallet.
We have to vote with our channel changer, right?
And there are plenty of other places you could go for some laughs, make in front of the left.
Whether it's the Babylon Bee, Monica's podcast, you could buy books.
I mean, it's out there.
So we're no longer just in isolation, you know, with just a few talk radio hosts.
Which is why big tech wants to shut meme makers down, you know?
People that put up memes, right?
So that's what this is about.
They all went off saying the same jokes so we can all be the Woking Dead, just sort of brain-eating, left-wing zombie.
Yes. All right, let's hit another quick break.
AJ, so much more to cover with you.
We've just skimmed the surface.
More with AJ Rice. His new book is called The Woking Dead.
Go get it. We're coming right back.
Well, so many of us struggle to get the right number of fruits and veggies and fiber in our system, right?
And we don't always succeed.
Well, lucky for us, we have balance of nature.
What better way to get all of your fruits and veggies plus fiber than with balance of nature?
Balance of Nature fruits and veggies are made from fresh, whole produce.
Their produce is powdered after an advanced vacuum-cold process, which stabilizes the maximum nutrient content.
And their Balance of Nature fiber and spice is a proprietary blend of fiber and 12 spices for overall and digestive health.
Thank you.
percent off your first preferred order by using discount code AMERICA.
Again, that's balanceofnature.com or call 800-246-8751 and get 35 percent off your first preferred order by using discount code AMERICA.
All right, we're back with AJ Rice.
New book is called The Woking Dead, available wherever you get your books.
Makes a great last-minute gift for those you love and maybe those you don't love that much, like the Democrats in your family.
Go get them the book. Maybe they'll learn something.
All right. Okay, let's talk.
I want to deal with social media and the role of social media here, AJ, because we've all been subjected to social media mobs.
I know I have. I'm sure you have as well.
These flash mobs on social media that then end up putting tremendous pressure on an individual, a company, an industry, and it leads to cancellation of people who love America, America first, trying to stand up for the truth, right? Talk to us about the influence of social media and how that's kind of played into what you call the Woking Dead.
Who are these people driving these flash mobs on Twitter and Instagram and other places?
Yeah, I mean, look, bottom line, they're digital brown shirts, right?
So whether it's giving out Brett Kavanaugh's address or Tucker's address or, you know, trying to cancel Chappelle because he tells a trans joke or Marr because he tells an Islam joke or whatever it is, they move.
They move quickly.
I guess the reason they act like this is because they want to pick the winners and losers of who gets seen and who doesn't get seen.
So they shadow ban, they de-platform, they demonetize, and they hunt you down for thought.
So the digital brown shirts weave about.
Now, we've got some guys fighting back.
Musk, thank God, owns X Twitter.
You know, Peter Thiel and conservatives being entrepreneurs have created their own platforms like Getter and Truth Social and Wimkin and some of these other places.
But, you know, they are horrified that any type of, you know, perspective that is not the, you know, I guess that the perspective being handed down from the, you know, the left wing sort of woke you dead, which really is corporations.
It's almost like this, Monica.
When you get an iPhone, right, you have to have these iOS updates, which are user agreements, right?
I, you know, I agree to, you know, let you drown my puppy and you can chop off my left arm on my 14th birthday.
All these things, right? No, let's read it.
We're all just like, okay, I got to make a phone call.
I got to call Monica. Boom!
We all agree to it. And if you don't do the iOS update, then your phone's not going to work in about a month.
It's not going to work. We're all sort of shuffled into this, whether you've got a Google phone or an iPhone.
So what I think some of this is, and the corporations push it with ESG and DEI, environmental social governance and diversity, equity, and inclusion, is that they're using these things, like the Chinese social credit system, To harness us into being the type of citizens they want, meaning it's a user agreement to be an American, a user agreement to To be a citizen.
And you have to follow their rule.
You have to sign the left-wing Woking Dead user agreement.
So they capture you this way.
To this day, I'm still not allowed on LinkedIn.
I've been banned, okay?
Me, A.J. Weiss, Darth Publius, the goat of conservative public relations, I'm not allowed on LinkedIn.
My business is fine, but they won't let me in.
Now, how did I get booted?
I got booted not by saying anything myself.
But by merely sharing the books, the columns, the opinions of my clients, people like you, people like Naomi Wolf, like Gregory Wrightstone, like Robert Malone, like, you know, Judge Jeanine, I got booted because of my clients, because they didn't like that I was putting up things that all of you said or wrote or did, interviews you did.
So this is who we're up against.
They are digital brown shirts.
They move through the internet like Kristallnacht, and they're coming for us still.
Now, Musk is helping us, you know, block some of it, but they're still out there.
They're still out there. We have a lot of work to do.
It is totalitarianism.
It really is tyranny.
I mean, I say this all the time to anybody who'll listen.
I'm like, you do realize that we live in a tyranny, right?
And people are like, oh no, America is freedom.
Freedom is illusory in America right now.
And that's why we need books like this to help fight back.
I want to hit another quick break I want to talk to you about, you know, our longtime friendship and producing radio for me back in the day.
But also I want to ask you about, you know, you write about in The Woking Dead about entertainment and the woke nonsense there and in sports as well.
So let's break it apart.
Coming back on the other side with AJ Rice.
Sit tight. The holidays are so exciting, right?
But they're also really exhausting.
That's where our friends at MyPillow come in.
MyPillow is very excited to bring you their biggest bedding sale ever and just in time for Christmas.

Okay, we're back with AJ Rice, my longtime friend.
His new book is called The Woking Dead.
Wokingdeadbook.com.
Go get it. You will laugh, but you'll also be armed with what you need to fight this battle.
So let's talk about, AJ, let's talk about, because you write about this in the book, the woke effect on entertainment and the woke effect in sports.
Could you break that down? Sure.
I think Look, I'm a publicist, and I can tell you I can smell other publicists when they've got their hands on these athletes, right?
Because most of these athletes, they're meat puppets.
They're not exactly splitting the atom, right?
So whether it's LeBron or Kevin Durant or whoever, I think they become activists partially because of what they see on their own social media and also what their puppet masters are making them say or back So one of the more egregious things in the last couple of years is LeBron James' support of the regime in Hong Kong.
Not the protesters in Hong Kong, not the people pushing back against the Chinese in Hong Kong, but basically the CCP appendage in Hong Kong.
And why?
Why did he do this? Well, like most athletes, they think they're noble.
They think they're Jim Brown.
They think they're Muhammad Ali.
They think they're Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who I think history has recorded these people, Jackie Robinson, as having had novel endeavors, right?
But that is not what today's athletes are doing.
They're not fighting ancient wrongs here.
Dwayne Wade is a pro-trans activist who is supporting the mutilation of children, and then you've got people that support kneeling and Black Lives Matter mafia, and you've got people that support the Chinese regime.
Why? Why do they do that?
Well, LeBron was about to put out a movie that no one saw, which was a sequel to Space Jam, which was the famous Michael Jordan Bugs Bunny movie that Warner Brothers put out 20 years ago, 30 years ago.
And it flopped, it flopped.
But he was worried about the Chinese market.
He's not worried about the 320 million Americans.
He wanted to make sure that that movie got distribution in China.
It's why Disney pulled a scene out of the live-action Mulan movie.
So they kowtow to the Chinese because I truly believe, unlike the old days where these publicly traded companies would answer to their board or their shareholders, maybe, God forbid, the public, us, the customer...
They think they can replace us with the 1.3 billion Chinese customers.
So they're not going to operate like an American citizen or an American company.
They're global, and they've got a replacement for us, a replacement for our pocketbook.
And LeBron James, he's one of many.
That was the most egregious one I wanted the audience to remember, was supporting the people that throw people in gulag.
Yeah, and the irony is somebody like LeBron James will lecture Americans all day long, conservatives, America-firsters, about the Constitution and the terribleness of Donald Trump, but he will overlook actual crimes against humanity and actual oppression and actual Marxism over in China because he wants the market,
like they all do. Welcome to my show!
So that's what you see with LeGron James.
That's what you see with so many.
So we're talking about sports, entertainment, the same thing.
Hollywood is just complete elite captured by the Chinese Communist Party, correct?
Right. And, you know, General Robert Spalding gave me a blurb from my book.
He writes on China.
He's a brigadier general, Air Force.
And his blurb from my book, and you gave me a blurb too, was basically that China likes anything that They love wokeism because they like anything that makes America weaker.
So whether it's Disney or whether it's the NBA... They love the trickle-down wokeism over here because it lowers our immune system.
Meanwhile, they're telling their men to be masculine.
You know, she is setting these rules about we're not going to have any wimps, so we're not going to have this, we're not going to have that.
Meanwhile, they want wimpiness abroad over here, right?
They want a beta male explosion, right?
In the United States, because God forbid we got to go toe-to-toe with these people in an alleyway or on the beaches of Taiwan, they want us all to basically cut and run because of the culture has made us salt.
That's what they want. So wokeism really is a form of Marxism.
I've spent a lot of time on this show and I do on my podcast too talking about this Marxist revolution.
But wokeism is just another form of the cultural revolution, right?
They just like took the pig, slapped lipstick on it and hoped that we don't notice.
That's exactly what it is. And they love it. They love it because we are all just becoming the greeny spine or the youth, we're all staring, we're all doing this. We're all doing it.
The Chinese Air Force can be above my head and I'm doing this all day. I'm doing this.
So that's where we're at. I mean, they floated a balloon.
We didn't notice until it got above canvas or something.
So, I mean, they could pop a submarine up in San Francisco Bay in Nancy Pelosi's backyard and we might not notice because we're all staring at our phones on the TikTok Chinese CCP propaganda vehicle.
Right. Yep.
No, that's it. I mean, they've completely infiltrated and they are conquering us without a shot, right?
In our final moments here, first of all, a very serious question, and then we'll get to the fun that we've had over the years.
But they have so much power.
The Marxist, you know, the military-industrial complex, the deep state, the propaganda press, the uni party, right?
They have so much power that they've amassed over the years.
How did we let it get to this point, AJ? Well, I mean, it has been, like we started in the beginning, the long march through the institutions.
The Chinese are patient.
They have a 10-year plan. They have a 100-year plan.
They have a 1,000-year plan. Probably sounds familiar.
And they... You know, are willing to basically, you know, they don't value life.
They don't value liberty.
They don't value their own citizens' lives.
And when you're talking about cultural Marxists, you're dealing with people that...
You talk about elite capture, and it really is the capture of all the levers of what makes us unique.
And if they can sort of destroy those things, being an economic superpower, a cultural superpower, and a military superpower...
They have won. Two things that we haven't touched on, and I don't really go into in this book, but we'll go into the sequel, is how they have sort of captured the Pentagon and a lot of churches.
They've brought Karl Marx into the church, and they've baptized them, because that's the type of Jesus they want.
They want a woke, evolving God.
Left-wing, transgender Jesus.
That's what they want. I'm Catholic.
I heard something this week that the Pope might, you know, start blessing gay marriage.
So this is, and look, the Pope is, you know, he comes out of the liberation theology milieu of South America, right?
So, this is where we're at.
I mean, the Pentagon is worried about red rage, General White Rage, who's gone now, but General White Rage, he's not worried about the CCP, he's not worried about ISIS, he's not worried about the moulacracy of Iran.
None of them saw Hamas coming, but they see people in red MAGA hats coming.
They can see that, right?
They see that. Whether it's with Juicy Smollett or at a Trump rally, they see the fake red of the MAGA hat.
So it's tough.
But have no fear, ladies and gentlemen.
Monica's a happy warrior, as am I. There is an insurrection out there, and it's an insurrection of parents, of patriots.
They're taking back their school.
They're taking back their local government.
They're pushing back.
They're going into these board meetings, and they're, look, wear a GoPro camera.
Send the footage to Monica or Dinesh.
They'll get it out there. Keep pushing back.
Do not accept the premise.
Do not do that.
That's how you win.
There is a rebellion. It's a rebellion of patriotic parents, patriotic Americans, people that are Christians, people that are Jews, people that are atheists that love their country.
Because they're trying to cancel you.
Cancel culture has a big goal.
And it's canceling the United States of America.
Look! You know, you see them trying to cancel Israel.
And quite frankly, the Jews were the first people in Western history that they've been trying to cancel Judaism for a long time.
But they're not alone.
They want to cancel Christians.
They want to cancel anyone that loves individual freedom.
Yes, they do. But we are armed now with the knowledge of what's actually going on.
And we also understand that there are more of us than there are of them.
So while they control all of the levers of power, we are the ones still driving this bus.
And only now, AJ, have we sort of felt our own power and recognize that.
And man, that's like a big turnaround moment, right?
Because now we are rising up Welcome to my show!
And he was the best producer I ever had because we laughed.
I mean, he gave me what I needed for every show, of course, because he's a total pro.
But we laughed more producing that radio show than I've ever laughed like in a professional setting.
You are the absolute best.
I treasure your friendship so much.
And I mentioned Naked Fridays.
I think maybe it was Naked Wednesdays.
Remind me of...
We didn't actually get naked, guys, but...
It was all theater of the minds on radio.
So tell me, how was it producing Monica Crowley?
Well, it was amazing. I mean, you know, it was a time of fighters, right?
A tea party time period.
We tried to lead with entertainment that was informative, right?
So our old friend Andrew Breitbart used to say that that was actually more important than who's running for dog catcher in Des Moines, right?
So we led with humor.
We would tell the audience that Monica was in her birthday suit on Wednesdays.
But again, it was theater of the mind.
We were using old radio tricks.
We discovered a lot of comedic people.
We had Steven Crowder on the air when he was 19.
We had Brad, the right-wing dwarf, Brad Williams, who has gone on to do stand-up specials and be on TV shows on FX. He's a little person.
He's very busy this time of year with Santa.
We had a lot of funny people, different people that would call in.
Monica never knew whether a guest was real or whether it was some after I hired to play a role.
And I think people enjoyed it.
They enjoyed it. You can only take so much doom and gloom and Biden sucks and Trump or DeSantis is wonderful.
I mean, look, you have to make your points about who you like and who you don't like.
But if you can laugh along the way, which is what we did, you know, I think the audience enjoys it and, you know, it makes conservatism and I think podcasts more fun.
And I think the biggest ones out there bring those elements to the table, like this one and like your podcast.
Oh, thank you, AJ. Well, it was such a pleasure and a joy to be produced by you.
I mean, back in the day, we will work together again someday, I have absolutely no doubt.
But in the meantime, my good friend, you have built a tremendously successful communications firm out of Washington, D.C. You got to get out of the swamp.
And I would tell you to come to New York where I am, but that's also a different kind of swamp.
But the firm is called Publius PR. It's an incredible business.
I am so proud of you that you have built this and made it into such a success.
But of course, when you told me you were going to launch this, I had no doubt.
The new book is called The Woking Dead.
Find it on the web at WokingDeadBook.com and get it at Amazon, wherever books are sold.
It is a really important book, but a very funny one, too.
You can find them on social media at PubliusPR, also on the web at PubliusPR.com.
AJ Rice, thank you so much, sir.
I want to thank you. Thank Dinesh's audience.
You're my sister forever, girl.
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to you, too.
Okay, guys, that's a wrap for us this week.
I want to thank Dinesh and Debbie D'Souza for inviting me to come and share this week with you.
