=== Decline Of American Logic (04:50) ===

[00:00:02]  What is her name?
[00:00:03]  Shelly?
[00:00:04]  Is that her name?
[00:00:05]  Shelly Luther.
[00:00:07]  So she's raised $300,000 on a GoFundMe page.
[00:00:12]  I'm sure it's more by now.
[00:00:14]  I think it's a great thing.
[00:00:16]  I mean, if it weren't close to that, I'd be donating.
[00:00:18]  But, you know, I could do more by publicizing her than I can by sending in my money.
[00:00:27]  But I do.
[00:00:28]  I send in money to a lot of these things, obviously.
[00:00:33]  And I support that.
[00:00:35]  When we're on the show, I mean, I would be in line to get in there for a haircut.
[00:00:46]  The statement of the judge to her shows you the decline of American morality and logic.
[00:00:56]  Because of the left.
[00:00:58]  The judge said you're selfish for opening your salon.
[00:01:05]  And she said, I'm paraphrasing, no.
[00:01:10]  Why is it selfish to want to feed my children?
[00:01:15]  And keep my employees employed?
[00:01:19]  How could it be selfish to open up a salon?
[00:01:24]  It's selfish if you force people into your salon.
[00:01:29]  How could anything that's purely voluntary that you offer as a service, how is that selfish?
[00:01:38]  Will somebody explain to me the judge's thinking?
[00:01:43]  He's a Democrat, shockingly.
[00:01:46]  So I don't expect clear thought.
[00:01:49]  But this is an amazing statement to look at her and say you're selfish.
[00:01:54]  A man who has his full salary tells a woman who has no salary, you're selfish.
[00:02:01]  Do you understand the sick world of the left?
[00:02:05]  And they portray themselves as the people who care about workers and the little guy?
[00:02:12]  If you're a little guy and you vote Democrat, you're an idiot.
[00:02:17]  You are an idiot!
[00:02:22]  It's mind-boggling.
[00:02:25]  We're living in a make-believe world.
[00:02:28]  The judge's comment to this woman should go down in history.
[00:02:34]  How dare you open up your hair salon, you selfish thing.
[00:02:43]  I have my full salary, so I can say that to you.
[00:02:49]  It's the party of empathy, the Democrats.
[00:02:52]  They empathize with tyrants.
[00:02:56]  So they have now, the Secretary of Education in the United States has announced that there will be, what, due process on campuses if a man, a student, is accused of sexual assault, correct?
[00:03:13]  That they'll actually have fair hearings.
[00:03:16]  Joe Biden said the moment he's elected president, he will repeal it.
[00:03:21]  Why would a young man vote for Joe Biden?
[00:03:27]  Again, this is beyond belief.
[00:03:32]  Anyway, what he got away with here is mind-boggling.
[00:03:35]  Yes, indeed.
[00:03:42]  Indeed.
[00:03:42]  Okay.
[00:03:46]  There's a guy who tweets out, he's obsessed with me.
[00:03:52]  It's an amazing thing.
[00:03:54]  I find these people, they're bored.
[00:03:59]  They have an aimless life.
[00:04:01]  So there's a guy who puts clips of my show on his Twitter.
[00:04:07]  So there was a clip about my saying how wrong it would be if you could sue your employer if you got COVID-19.
[00:04:17]  And all the people...
[00:04:19]  Oh my God, this Prager, oh my God, is he evil?
[00:04:25]  It shows you not only the moral degradation, but the intellectual shallowness of these people.
[00:04:34]  Why would any business be able to operate if anybody who worked there and got the virus could then sue their employer?

=== The Greatest Mistake (03:31) ===

[00:04:42]  What are you suing the employer about?
[00:04:47]  What is the employer supposed to do?
[00:04:52]  Speak to God?
[00:04:52]  I don't know what went wrong in the life of a person who becomes a leftist.
[00:05:04]  Thank you.
[00:05:04]  Thank you.
[00:05:06]  I don't know.
[00:05:07]  At what point, like the people, because I have my article up this week, it's probably the greatest mistake in history.
[00:05:18]  And there's still reactions.
[00:05:20]  Oh, really?
[00:05:22]  The Holocaust is not a bigger mistake?
[00:05:25]  Do you understand the shallowness of these people's responses?
[00:05:30]  Or slavery was not a bigger mistake?
[00:05:34]  Slavery was not a mistake?
[00:05:36]  Holocaust was not a mistake?
[00:05:38]  They were evils.
[00:05:40]  You don't know the difference between mistake and evil?
[00:05:45]  They don't.
[00:05:49]  I learned how shallow the intellectual world was when I was in graduate school.
[00:05:55]  My whole life I have known this.
[00:05:57]  Read Intellectuals by Paul Johnson.
[00:05:59]  You get an idea.
[00:06:02]  And intellectuals and another giant group in Hollywood.
[00:06:07]  200 celebrities and scientists, including Madonna and Robert De Niro.
[00:06:13]  Calling for the world not to return to normal over COVID-19 lockdowns and stop the pursuit of consumerism.
[00:06:22]  Will they give up their homes, Madonna and De Niro?
[00:06:28]  Will they give up their private chefs?
[00:06:31]  This is like the judge who has the job telling the woman who has no income, you're selfish.
[00:06:36]  I'm telling you, it's a battle. .
[00:06:45]  It is a battle.
[00:06:46]  It's a civil war.
[00:06:49]  One side's really bad.
[00:06:51]  Really, really, really bad.
[00:06:53]  And not particularly bright.
[00:06:55]  But of course, that's the beauty.
[00:06:57]  They have some Nobel Prize winners, which is what I told you.
[00:07:00]  The relationship between intelligence and wisdom is a zero.
[00:07:05]  Big, fat zero.
[00:07:08]  Some have it, some don't.
[00:07:12]  These are people who have this utopian dream that communists have.
[00:07:18]  We will have a world where people will write poetry all day.
[00:07:22]  What is wrong with making money and being productive?
[00:07:25]  They hate the word productivity.
[00:07:26]  That's one of the things they condemn.
[00:07:28]  We can no longer measure things by productivity.
[00:07:31]  Anyway, this is a dress rehearsal for closing down the world for global warming.
[00:07:36]  I told you that in the beginning.
[00:07:39]  If you can order people to stop working, Because of a virus that kills tens of thousands, maybe a hundred thousand, how much more so will you be able to close down society for something that is an existential threat, which they claim global warming is?
[00:07:58]  They're saying so.
[00:08:01]  They're flying in their jets to conferences to enforce that.
[00:08:08]  Okay, we continue.
