What's the One Subject That Scares the Hell Out of America?

Time Text
Let me tell you what is scaring the hell out of America.
These two, look at these two, Omar Fateh and Elon Omar.
Okay?
Both Somalis.
She was born in Mogadishu.
He was born, I think, in D.C. Maybe an American born, but they sure as hell don't seem to be holding what we call, quote, American values.
Don't take my word for it.
That's what people are saying.
And you're going to say right away, oh, they're racist.
They're Islamophobia.
As we say in the South, that dog don't hunt.
You can't say this anymore.
You can't keep delivering this nonsense.
We are not phobic.
We are not transphobic, Islamophobic, anti-Semitic, whatever, racist.
We've heard them all.
Whenever anybody seems to point to or suggest or advance an argument or an objection that holds water, the first thing they're told is, it's you.
You're racist.
The motivation behind this is racist.
Wait a minute.
What about my claim?
We're not going to get to your claim.
They never talk about whether the claim's valid.
It's you.
You're the problem.
You're the one who's crazy.
You're the one.
You're the one.
It's always about you.
You just hate foreigners.
You just hate brown people.
Stop this crap.
It doesn't work anymore.
But let me tell you what's different.
First, throughout my, again, my 40 years of doing this, there have always been groups of people who worry about pockets of groups.
This group doesn't like the LGBT group.
This may have a problem with trans or drag shows.
This may have problems with, you know, BLM or George Floyd rioting.
You know, you just see this, groups of people.
Some don't like DEI, some like ESG.
Okay, fine.
But there's always a, there's a disparate group of people.
It's not one locked in across the board feeling.
What I am hearing people say, and they're being told constantly, you can't say this, is the following.
And I'm hearing it in New York and around the country.
And you know what they're saying?
I heard this the other day.
We all have the prototypical individual in our lives.
I have one who is a prototypical lefty, young woman, you know, in her 30s.
This woman loves everything.
ESG, M-O-U-S-E, you name it.
I mean, she is as liberal as you can imagine.
And I mean this new form of liberalism, this lunacy kind of progressive stuff.
And she told me in the New York Mayor's race.
By the way, this is a true story.
You got to take my word on it.
I'm not just making this up.
She says, I'm voting for Andrew Cuomo.
I almost had a heart attack.
I said, what?
Andrew?
Andrew Cuomo?
Yes.
Why?
She lives in Brooklyn, a hotbed of liberalism.
And what does she say?
My neighborhood, I'm trying to quote, my neighborhood is being filled and populated by people with veils.
I don't recognize my neighborhood anymore.
It's not about Islam.
It's not about Islamist even.
It's about the fact that I'm losing the identity of my country and where I live.
And I'm hearing this all over the place.
And it's scaring the hell out of America.
And nobody wants to address it.
Oh, you get these.
And the best part is, you get these professional progressives.
See, this is why the Democratic Party is falling apart.
You get the Amy Goodmans and others.
And by the way, they say some good things or the crystal balls or the whatever, whoever these folks are that normally seem to kind of make sense, especially, and we'll get to this in a moment, especially when it comes to their positions as to Palestinian rights and Gaza and Israel.
And just put that aside for a moment.
So normally what they do is they say, oh, almost reflexively, oh, this is wonderful.
This is another Democratic socialist, whatever the hell that means.
Because here in New York, all they hear is socialist.
You know, that's like saying, you know, Democratic Nazis.
You don't hear the Democratic part.
That doesn't, I'm not saying they're equivalent, but the Democratic doesn't soft soap.
It doesn't muffle the thud of the follow-up word that it tends to to describe.
But they're saying, oh, this is wonderful.
Oh, oh, Zoran Mamdani, he's wonderful.
He's just, he's a, uh-uh.
You don't know what's happening here.
People are saying, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
And first of all, he's so bad that Barack Obama doesn't even endorse him.
Barack Obama acknowledges him, but doesn't endorse him.
You ever see that?
So what's happening here is they see these two and people are saying, you know what?
Veils, headdress, that's okay.
But something is happening regarding either.
And please, I'm not calling it a burqa.
I know there's an Abaya, there's a hijab.
I don't know the names of shawls, scarves.
I don't know them.
And I will, but I'm admitting I'm not, but I'm not calling it a burqa.
This is not Afghanistan.
No, no, no, no.
But they're saying, we don't want this.
Calls to prayer at three in the morning?
What?
Dearborn Michigan?
Calls to prayer at three in the morning?
What the hell is this?
Oh, you're an Islamophobic.
My ass?
No.
I don't want to hear Catholic.
I don't even want to hear church bells at three in the morning.
And those are kind of nice, and I was kind of used to those.
This is nuts.
And then you have this cacophony, this absolute litany, this endless surge of individuals on various social media platforms that say, we're coming for you.
We're taking over.
This is Islamist.
Couple of definitions.
And it's axiomatic at this point.
Progressives are a religion disguised as a political persuasion or direction.
Islamism is a political party disguised as a religion.
They don't represent all of the Muslims, but you can go back to Muslim Brotherhood and move all the way down the line from Saeed Kupt and go back and ask Nasser what he thought.
Even he recognized.
You've got a bunch of people who want to take this.
It's almost like a Trotskyite.
I don't want to say a diaspora, but dare I say a metastatic perfusion, an extravasation, a flooding, a tsunami-like movement of not just Muslims praying and doing, no, coming in and taking over city councils and election boards and school boards and mayors and police chiefs to run the show.
Now, I'm not going to debate or bring up the fact of something somebody doesn't want to know.
Is this Sharia law?
Technically, no.
But Sharia law has become a term that is used to describe this generic fear that people have.
It's a code.
It's a religious means of interpreting.
I'm not going to get into it.
But if that's what you want to call it, fine.
The same way they're calling everybody a socialist and a Marxist and a communist.
Is he a communist?
No.
Are a lot of these things socialism?
No.
They're just, they're basically what it amounts to, almost some type of a psycho-welfare giveaway because Zoran Mamdani is a stooge.
He is a sock puppet.
He is Pinocchio.
He is Lamb Chop.
Who's Sherry Lewis?
Who's Geppetto?
That's the story.
But as far as these two folks right here, you cannot help but look at their faces and their look, especially Elon Omar, and they sneer at you.
It's glee.
It is almost pathological.
We're coming, we're here, and we're going to take over everything.
And here's the best part, Democratic Party.
Don't take my word for it.
Look at what you're seeing.
You have become, by virtue of the Israel, hear me out, of the issue of Israel, Palestine, Gaza.
The folks who have been staunchly, adamantly, forcefully, vociferously against what you either consider Zionism, Christian Zionism, BB, Israel, whatever you want to call that, because it goes by a variety of different ways regarding what you think of the horrible treatment.
And it's been horrible.
There's no doubt about this.
But whether it's been called, well, a genocide or ethnic cleansing or apartheid, that debate, which I do not address here, I'm pointing this out to you.
That debate has been so strong and so forceful and has picked up so much momentum that it has, by virtue of its expansion, pulled into its fold the notion of all things Muslim.
All things Palestinian.
It's like one big collective.
Somali, fine.
Ugandan, fine.
Islamic, fine.
As long as you're brown Muslim, part of this world that is absolutely needs protection, as do all folks do, but you have confused this.
And a lot of the people who have said yes, yes, what is happening in Palestine or in Gaza or in Israel or the Middle East, however you want to phrase it, that is one thing.
But whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
But do we want this brought here?
No.
We don't want to become Palestine West or whatever it is.
No.
We don't want to be some Muslim stronghold.
No.
We have this funny separation of church and state thing in the First Amendment, though not enumerated as such.
That was Jefferson's words.
We know all about that.
I know that.
Don't correct me on this.
But we're saying, oh no, you don't.
And all of a sudden, the people are saying, wait a minute.
And I'm hearing this.
I'm with you.
This is what they're saying.
I'm with you on Palestine.
But I'm not with you on calls to prayer in Dearborn, Michigan at 3 in the morning.
Or I'm not with you with Zoran Mamdani, who seems to be going out of his way to not assuage any fears on the part of the population, but in some respects to exacerbate them.
Now listen, let the Democratic Party kill themselves.
I don't care.
But let me explain something.
This is a warning.
This is a warning for a lot of these lefty kind of milquetoast.
They thought they were, they thought they were, I mean, leading the charge.
You've heard them before regarding Palestinian issues.
They thought we are invincible.
We're going to take on Trump and the Republicans and the anti-Zionists and all this because the world's behind us.
Okay, okay.
But then you started to say, hey, this is great.
Let's let there be a perfusion of Islamist, whether you know it or not, protocol and politics in American cities.
Whoa, wait a minute.
And they don't get it.
They don't get it.
Because there's one thing these people don't understand.
They don't understand reality, realism, realpolitik.
They're not able to say yes here, but not here.
Let me tell you something.
I'm feeling it in New York City.
I am seeing turnout, turnout at precincts we never saw.
Early voting.
And it's not necessarily because they're confused about Curtis Lee or Andrew Cuomo or whatever.
No, no, no, no, no.
There is a sense of invigoration because Mamdani and Omar and Elon Omar have scared the hell out of people.
Congratulations, Democratic Socialist.
Congratulations, progressive lefties.
Good for you.
You thought it was a one-size-fits-all, right?
That all these issues were fungible.
Well, they're not.
You'll see, you'll see two things also I want you to see.
And they are listed in the description section of this video.
First, what do you think about all of these riots that are happening and screaming regarding SNAP benefits?
I'm not in any way laughing at that.
I don't think it's anything serious at all.
But this is what happens when there are food issues.
When you can't get food, people go berserk.
And if that ever happens in the event of a natural occurrence or unnatural or some type of a supply chain breakdown and your local stores close for a week, uh-uh.
What will you do if there's no food?
What if you do if this what will you do if the store is closed?
