	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Ready?
	State braces for a grim surge.
	But they didn't finish the headline.
	For some reason, the other important words were cut off.
	State braces for a grim surge in panic.
	I don't know.
	It just didn't have the entire headline.
	CNN, I happened to catch.
	Where was it?
	It's on in some public place that I was.
	Same thing.
	32 states see surge.
	Spike.
	Well, a dissenting voice who has gained a great reputation for honesty and, unfortunately, even courage, because it shouldn't take courage to tell the truth about the diseases or anything else.
	And that is Alex Berenson, investigative journalist, former New York Times reporter, has a new short paperback book.
	And ebook on the crisis, unreported truths about COVID-19 and lockdowns.
	Well, welcome back to my show, Alex.
	Dennis, it is a pleasure.
	Although, in some ways, it's not a pleasure, because why are we still talking about this?
	That is exactly right.
	Why haven't you moved on to, you know, talk about the election and stuff that I'm not as interested in, and you can, and I'll get back to working on drug policy books and stuff.
	We should be back in, you know, in our, moving towards our normal life.
	Anyway, I'm sorry.
	Let's make a sort of vow that when the panic ends, I'm not saying when the epidemic ends, when the panic ends, you and I will talk, but not even about drugs or politics.
	You have a hobby?
	You know, I used to have hobbies.
	I used to read a lot and go hiking and stuff like that.
	I haven't read a book since, although I read an old book or a novel that I love.
	I haven't read a book in four months.
	You know, I used to write spy novels.
	These days, it's all COVID. That's correct.
	All right, so I think I know the answer, but you're the one I want to hear it from.
	Why is that headline in the LA Times?
	Why is that headline?
	Well, the most obvious reason is that, so if you look at deaths in the United States, and we'll see what happens today and tomorrow, but because you could, there's some argument, well, maybe deaths were a little bit suppressed by the holidays, you know, and death reporting was suppressed is what I should say.
	But if you look at deaths in the United States from COVID, they have now fallen more than 80%.
	Since March and April, really since April, since the early to mid-April peak.
	And so instead of celebrating this news and talking about how we've reopened and yet deaths are down dramatically, the media is looking for any negative fact that they can find.
	And so last month they had nothing.
	So they were completely speculating about...
	When I say last month, I mean May.
	In May, they were speculating about Kawasaki disease, this sort of Kawasaki-like syndrome in children.
	They're speculating about people in their 20s and 30s having strokes, and stuff that was at best minimally supported by the science, and that even pediatric disease experts were discouraging them from talking about.
	Okay, so what happened?
	What happened in June was we ramped up testing a lot, and there was some community spread in Texas.
	And Florida and Arizona and California, too, by the way.
	A lot of communities spread in California.
	Masks didn't seem to make any difference there.
	And why is that?
	That's a really good question, which I hope we will get the answer to soon.
	It may be because people are going out a lot more.
	It may be because of the protests.
	We don't know.
	But what we know is that most of the people who got positive test results in the last month, and by the way, it may be because we're testing more and better.
	Most of those people are at very, very, very low risk from SARS-CoV-2.
	Okay?
	Being infected with this if you're 30 probably means a cold.
	Being infected with this if you're 50 and in reasonably good health probably means a couple of bad days.
	Maybe, you know, maybe a moderate fever.
	You can be unlucky.
	It can be worse than that.
	But for most of the people who've recently been infected, they're not at not even high risk.
	They're not at moderate risk.
	They're very, very low risk.
	So the media doesn't say any of this.
	They just start talking about cases, cases, cases.
	And what comes to my mind, what comes to everyone's mind when you hear a case is, this person's in the hospital.
	This person might die.
	That's right.
	That's what people think.
	I read that even Fauci has now acknowledged that it can no longer even be called scientifically an epidemic.
	Is that accurate?
	No, that's not quite accurate.
	So what happened is the CDC has certain standards for the number or the percentage of deaths from pneumonia and influenza.
	And if that rises above a certain level of a weekly basis, they call it an epidemic.
	So if there's 10,000 deaths, let me use a real number, if there's 50,000 deaths in the United States overall in a week, which is about what there is, right now you would expect about 3,000 of those deaths to be pneumonia and influenza deaths.
	Above that, it's technically an epidemic.
	It doesn't matter whether it's 4,000 or 50,000.
	They call it an epidemic.
	So right now, the numbers have gone down so much for pneumonia and influenza and COVID that we are right at the top of that band.
	So they're saying that, you know, in a week or two, it might not be an epidemic by that standard anymore.
	Here's what I will say, and it's important for people to understand.
	Death lag.
	Okay, so there is reason to watch very carefully what is happening in Texas and Arizona and Florida and California and the rest of the sundown.
	We don't want those hospitals to get overrun.
	We don't want, you know, ICUs.
	We don't want field hospitals to open.
	We don't want gyms, you know, being converted into hospitals.
	We don't want any of that stuff.
	But that stuff is not happening right now.
	It is not happening, and it does not appear likely to happen.
	I'm not going to say it...
	I'm not going to say with 100.00% confidence that it won't happen by the end of this month, but it does not look like it is going to happen.
	And that's what we should care about because I don't care how many people have positive tests for SARS-CoV-2.
	I care about how many people develop COVID, the disease, and get really sick and wind up ventilated or dying.
	That's what I should care about as a human being and as somebody who cares about our medical system and as somebody who cares about our economy and society.
	Not how many people get a cold.
	And right now, although there are some places where the hospitals have filled up, they are not overflowing.
	Not anywhere.
	And I will say that with confidence.
	I look at the data every single day.
	And the folks who are on the panicky side will say yes.
	That is because we opened up too soon.
	We were doing great while we were locked down.
	Except we opened up in Georgia on April 24th.
	We opened up in Texas on May 1st.
	We opened up in Arizona in mid-May.
	Why is it that all this stuff started to happen in sort of early to mid-June?
	And we don't know the answer to that, okay?
	And there's going to be some people who just say it's a protest.
	I don't know if it was a protest.
	I don't really believe that because the protests were everywhere and this hasn't happened everywhere.
	It could be the weather, okay?
	It could be that people are sort of congregating in restaurants with a lot of air conditioning and spreading this to each other.
	It could be that this is the natural history of this illness everywhere, and that New York went through it first, and Paris went through it first, and now Texas is going through it, only we're better at treating it now, so there's going to be many fewer deaths.
	We don't know.
	What we do know is that in the United States in the last week, Many fewer than 5,000 people, I'd have to go look at the exact number, probably 3,000 or something like that, died from this disease.
	Of the 50,000 people who died last week in the United States.
	So what are we doing?
	Why are we letting this run our lives?
	Well, 3,000 a week is 150,000 a year.
	That's right.
	Yes, and we have not even reached that yet.
	That's correct.
	And of those 150,000, however many people die, the best estimate is that one-half to two-thirds of those people would have died by year-end of something else anyway.
	Again, nearly half the people who die from this are in nursing homes.
	And that's not to say that every death doesn't matter.
	No, I know.
	We always have to add that as if we don't love people.
	It's such a joke.
	My aunt's in a nursing home.
	I adore her.
	I mean, it's absurd, but I know you have to.
	It's the way that...
	I mean, listen, my grandmother was in an Alzheimer's ward, a locked ward for several years, okay?
	She had no mind.
	She had no life.
	Honestly, if she died a couple years earlier, it would have been a blessing for her.
	That's right.
	That is correct.
	But I'm not allowed to say that on a societal basis, though.
	I won't dare.
	Right.
	Okay, okay.
	Exactly.
	Of course not.
	The fact is, this is a...
	In the history of pandemics, This, right now, it doesn't even, it's barely, whatever I say is going to get taken out of context, but we are overreacting.
	We have been overreacting, we are continuing to overreact, and every time it seems like the media might admit the truth, they won't.
	I'll ask you what I ask people like you, though you're unique.
	If you were emperor, what policies would you pursue?
	That's the $64,000 question.
	I have been opposed to the lockdown from the beginning.
	I understood two weeks.
	And I understood New York.
	but to apply it all over the country and all over the world?
	Obama tore this country down!
	No one stood up to him!
	Nobody!
	You need to wake up!
	My parents didn't teach me that I was a victim.
	They can turn back voting rights.
	Didn't nobody donate to us the right to vote?
	You're a house nigga.
	I didn't call you a nigga.
	Oh, okay.
	That's a big difference.
	Uncle Tom is somebody who has sold out.
	By embracing the white man.
	Uncle Tom.
	Bedouin.
	Boot liquor.
	Black white supremacist.
	Chuckin and Jarvis.
	House Negro.
	Coon.
	Uncle Tom.
	Coon.
	I have a Kuhn award over there.
	Kuhn of the year award.
	Most black people don't believe that other blacks can be independent, free thinkers.
	I believe the legacy and the ancestry of black Americans is being insulted every single day.
	I will not pretend to be a victim in this country.
	I know that that makes many people on the left uncomfortable.
	Racist.
	Racism.
	A thousand cuts of racism.
	The liberal will try to control a black person through the concept of racism because they know that we are very proud, emotional people.
	I never felt that because I was black or I was poor or a woman that I couldn't do something.
	Gunshot I grew up being told of my disadvantages, that this country is unfair to black people.
	The ideology is implanted into you subconsciously to believe these things.
	It's like a cancerous plague in the mind of black Americans.
	We're brainwashed to think, is it because I'm black?
	America's not ours, so we got shipped here.
	No.
	Our blood is on this soil.
	We own this too.
	There should be a pride that we have in the fact that this country was built by many great black men and women.
	Are you trying to say that this country does not specialize in racism and bigotry?
	So long as black people continue to have their psyche filled by that nonsense, we won't have an awakening.
	Trending now on the Larry Elder Show.
	When Bill Clinton, after twice vetoing almost identically worded bills, finally signed the Welfare Reform Act, One of the reasons he got elected is because he was going to be a different Democrat.
	We're going to change welfare as we know it.
	He said it during the 1992 campaign.
	It didn't do anything.
	And then Dick Morris said, when he's running for re-election, look, if you want to win this election, you have to fulfill this campaign promise.
	So Bill Clinton signed the Welfare Reform Act of 1996. 1996, 1994?
	1996, I think it was.
	And a bunch of liberals, his own party, they were furious.
	Furious!
	One of the children's advocates is a woman named Marian Wright-Ellerman.
	She stopped speaking to Hillary.
	They were good friends.
	Members of the Congressional Caucus.
	Said that when this bill goes through, there are going to be people sleeping on the grates outside because they're going to be so poor.
	What happened?
	Welfare rolls declined almost 50%.
	Far steeper than the most optimistic projections were.
	Without a corresponding increase in abortion.
	It turned out a whole bunch of able-bodied people and able-minded people, when they found out they weren't going to get additional money, and when for the first time they were going to be caps on how long you can stay on welfare.
	They got off the couch and went and got jobs.
	Now the very same people who were predicting death and destruction, what did they say?
	Nothing.
	Not a word.
	Did any of them admit we were wrong?
	That we were apparently creating perverse incentives by setting up the welfare state the way we were?
	Did anybody suggest that they were wrong?
	No.
	You see, the left never says we're sorry.
	Never says we're wrong.

	I'm Dennis Prager.
	Man, I've had on actually having nothing to do with this even before the COVID panic, I mean epidemic.
	And it was on his major book on marijuana.
	This guy's a clear thinker.
	So I want to put you on the spot because I'm very curious to get your response.
	You're emperor of the United States.
	Sure.
	In other words, a democratic president.
	Yes.
	And you can do anything you want.
	What would you do?
	Or for that matter, governor, governor of where you live in New York?
	New York.
	New York is different.
	So California.
	Sure.
	So what I would do has not changed in the last, really, two and a half to three months.
	I would reopen schools.
	That is the number one thing.
	And by the way, I saw that Governor DeSantis in Florida has announced that schools are going to reopen.
	He's ordered them open for five-day-a-week instruction, as it should be, as is happening all over the world.
	And that is leadership.
	Whether or not you agree with it, he's saying, I don't...
	You know, I know what this spike in positive tests means and doesn't mean, and we are going to reopen schools.
	And, you know, I'm really impressed with that.
	So I would reopen schools that's kindergarten, that's elementary, that's high school, that's colleges.
	I do not care if those kids wind up getting positive tests.
	They are at zero risk.
	And zero is a – look, I say zero.
	It's near zero.
	I know.
	I've said that for three months.
	There are greater risk of being in a car accident on the way to school.
	There are much higher risk.
	There are much higher risk of drowning.
	There are much higher risk of child abuse.
	There are much higher risk of the flu.
	Okay, so that's cool.
	Next.
	Offices should be open.
	Public transportation and hotels should be open.
	If people want to wear masks, that's fine.
	There's not a lot of evidence that masks do anything either way.
	I wouldn't require them.
	The only thing that I would hold off on a little bit in places where there's a lot of community transmission is if you want to say big indoor events we should hold off on, if you want to say bars, because there is evidence in Japan where they really didn't have much of an epidemic at all, they concentrated on just a couple of places, places like literally karaoke bars and bars, places where people are close together.
	You know, in each other's faces, a lot of strangers for a long time is speaking loudly.
	That can drive spikes.
	So if spikes are what we care about, then, you know, in places where there's been a lot of transmission...
	So you would open everything except bars and hockey games.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And, you know, indoor dining, I'd be more careful about, yes, those things.
	Well, more careful is not the same as clothes.
	Right.
	I would probably separate restaurants a little bit, you know, separate the tables and stuff like that.
	Bars, it's very hard.
	People get drunk.
	They don't want to socially distance.
	So the other thing I would do, and we've done this.
	This is one thing that I think we have done in this country, is we stand up the hospital.
	Okay, so we make sure they have enough PPE. They do.
	We make sure that if there are short-term surges...
	We rotate, you know, nurses and doctors in.
	Ideally, people who have had some experience with this over the last couple months, which we now have some people like that who know what they're doing.
	Okay?
	And we try to protect nursing homes.
	That means temperature checks.
	Ideally, that means you try to find people who had positive antibody tests to work there.
	I don't think you want to lock these people up for months on end because there's negative aspects to that, too, when their families can't see them.
	It's bad for them.
	It's bad for the care they receive.
	That is a problem.
	But do we want to try to make sure that we're not, you know, letting sick people wander into nursing homes?
	Yes.
	So, I mean, these are all practical, common sense things.
	None of them require test, trace, isolate.
	We're way, way past that.
	We can't possibly isolate enough people to make a difference.
	None of them require contact tracing apps on your phone.
	That stuff is a joke.
	Most people will not respond to those calls.
	People are already complaining about that in states where they have contact tracing going on.
	And we should be doing testing of treatments, whether that's HCQ, whether that's dexamethasone, whether that's the Gilead drug.
	We should be doing randomized controlled tests to see what works.
	None of this requires us to blow up society.
	It's blocking and tackling.
	It's stuff we're good at in the United States.
	The lack of concern by the media and the Democrats with the consequences of the lockdown as if, oh, it's money versus lives, that's the simpleton view, is appalling to me.
	I read a piece From the Wall Street Journal to my listeners yesterday, developing world loses billions in money from migrant workers.
	I mean, this is just one example.
	And in El Salvador, there are now white flags outside homes to signal they're hungry.
	Right.
	Why is that preferable to allowing people to work?
	I don't know.
	Why can't kids go back to school?
	Because some teachers are afraid of this thing when the reality is the school is probably a safer place for them to be because kids don't seem to spread this very much based on all the evidence we have.
	Why has the media been baying about Arizona and Texas for the last three weeks when there is no evidence of hospital overrun?
	I don't know.
	I don't know what has happened to the media in our society.
	Well, you do know.
	I do, but I don't like to talk about it because it's not helpful for me to focus on that.
	I prefer to focus on the data about COVID. Why is it not helpful to you?
	Look, I don't want to be pegged as a right-winger or a left-winger or anything but somebody who looks for the truth.
	Okay, that's fine.
	I'm not arguing with you.
	We all have different roles in life, and I understood.
	At a very early time in my life, though I know that I share 90% of liberal values with liberals, I was pegged a right-winger, and I have lived with it, and so be it.
	I mean, they can call me a giraffe.
	There's nothing I can do about it.
	But I appreciate that, and I understand.
	Is there...
	Since you look at the data, what is your take on second wave?
	Well, I think this is the second wave right now.
	I think it's very interesting.
	That, you know, the states that got hit in March and April are not getting hit.
	And it is going to be...we need more than anything in this country.
	And, Dennis, I think I said this to you two months ago.
	This is how long this has been going on.
	We need a national randomized serology test.
	That will tell us how many people have been infected and recovered because the numbers are kind of all over the map.
	But you heard the CDC last week, or either last week or the week before, say that they thought at least 10 times the number of people have been infected from this and recovered as we've had active tests.
	There are other people who think it's 20 to 30. All right, how do people get your book?
	We have no time.
	I want them to get your book.
	So the book is called Unreported Truths on COVID-19, about COVID-19 and lockdowns.
	This is part one.
	It's about deaths and how we count them.
	Part two, which I'm working on desperately, is going to be about lockdowns.
	You get this on Amazon.
	You get it on Apple.

	I am really, really, really, really happy with your response to my movie, Have you seen it yet?
	I would say something like, if you see it and don't like it, I'll give you your money back, but I can't do that legally.
	But I will tell you, you're not going to regret it.
	1999. You're not going to regret it.
	Listen to this one.
	This is one I got from a Democrat.
	Headline, a great wake-up call for Democrats like myself.
	And here's what this person wrote.
	Don't know whether it's male or female.
	As a lifelong Democrat, this movie called attention to the failing of my party.
	Wow.
	I heard it said before that black Americans are disillusioned and fed up with being taken granted by the Democrats, only paid attention to during election cycle.
	So I felt it was my responsibility to really take these voices seriously.
	And I felt it was my responsibility to see your film.
	This hits to the core of it.
	I cannot accept ignorance any longer and feel any Democrat who is unwilling to see this film is...
	Intentionally failing to practice what they preach, which is that all black lives matter.
	A bitter pill to swallow, but absolutely necessary.
	Become a well-rounded, informed citizen and watch this film.
	End of quote.

	We're sitting There is talk, Hugh, and I have it in my story today, about a possible vacancy this summer.
	We've heard a lot about whether Justice Thomas will retire or not, but the name I keep hearing in my source world is Judge Amul Thapar.
	The federal judge in Kentucky, the former U.S. attorney in Kentucky, that he's seen as a favorite of Leader McConnell, and that if there is a narrow window, someone like him, if Thomas retires, who's young, 51 years old, who's seen as confirmable, could be moved this summer.
	And you think this is already a political and culture war in this country?
	Just wait for a possible...
	Oh, Robert, you should have called me.
	I don't report Buzz much, but since you brought it up...
	The stronger rumor is that Justice Alito is going to quit.
	Justice Thomas will never quit.
	And that Justice Alito opens up the opportunity to put on Ray Kethledge again, or David Strauss, or Don Willett, that if indeed Justice Thomas were to retire, it would be on multiple.
	That one's a done deal, if it's Justice Thomas and multiple.
	Alito, huh?
	That's a great tip.
	That is what my...
	You know what happens at this time of the year?
	Is that...
	People begin working the refs.
	And I'm hardly a ref, but I got a column in the Washington Post.
	And so they start working me about, you know, this person would be great if Alito quit.
	And this person would be great if Thomas quit.
	And everybody agrees with what you just said.
	If Thomas were to quit, he would say, look, I'm 72. I've done my share.
	But Robert, did you run into anyone who told you what he said?
	He swore the oath that he wasn't going to leave his job until the last person who voted against his nomination had left the Senate.
	He's still there.
	How old is Justice Alito?
	I think he's 74. He might be 72. I'm not sure.
	But he hates...
	The buzz is his wife hates Washington, D.C.

	Dennis Prager here.
	The president's speech in South Dakota at Mount Rushmore was so good.
	That it actually bordered on perfection.
	To attack that speech tells you only about the attacker.
	It tells you nothing about the president.
	Nothing.
	And I have not been a fan of many of his tweets.
	Let me just quickly take a doctor in Baltimore.
	John.
	Hello, John.
	Dennis Prager.
	Hey.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	Yes, sir.
	I just want your listeners to know that COVID-19 is not benign in children.
	We're averaging about 300 ER visits a month at our tertiary care hospital for COVID-19.
	And we've never gotten 300 ER visits for asthma or meningitis in a month.
	And no, we haven't had any deaths.
	That is true.
	We have not had a pediatric death.
	We've had some ICU admissions.
	We've had some kids with lingering respiratory issues.
	I don't want your listeners to think that Well, you could hold both.
	Children do get it, and it's largely benign.
	They're not mutually exclusive.
	If there are no deaths, given the fact that there are children with asthma and children with heart problems...
	No, no, residual.
	So a kid who does not have asthma gets COVID-19 and then ends up with residual respiratory problems.
	So there is lingering morbidity.
	Benign.
	They don't just get it and have a cold and it's better.
	Well, they do, but look, we're both right.
	The question is what you do about it.
	Yeah.
	I'm not calling about that.
	Yeah.
	Okay, that's fair.
	Okay, I appreciate it.
	See, this is something, and I obviously say this with respect.
	For the record, doctors have saved my life.
	So I owe them a certain degree of gratitude.
	But I don't look to doctors or any other experts for what to do.
	I look to them to explain and to cure and to do all the wonderful things they can do.
	I've learned this from firemen many years ago, and I learned it on this show, as I have learned so much about life on this program.
	When I spoke to a fire chief about the issue, and so many of you may recall this, I'm jogging your memories here, because I have referred to it.
	When he said schools should keep schoolroom doors closed at all times, in case there is a fire, much safer to have that in place.
	But of course, if you look at how many children have died in school fires in the last half century in the U.S., I think it's zero.
	I think it's zero.
	Terrible things and doctors see terrible things.
	I have a very close friend who's a doctor and he periodically tells me about the risks of a mouth cancer for smoking cigars and the statistics on mouth cancer are so are so rare it may be chewing tobacco but smoking cigars and It's exceedingly rare.
	And so it's probably far more likely that I would die in a car crash than of mouth cancer.
	But a doctor sees mouth cancer.
	So that's why I don't want experts to give me advice.
	I want experts to give me expertise and save my life, which is a pretty good calling.
	My friends, this speech that the President gave is so good that it is...
	It's painful.
	It's so good it's painful that he had to give such a speech.
	That he had to defend the four people whose...
	The visages are chiseled in that mountain.
	Now, what are they canceling Hamilton, the play, the show?
	Well, the guy who wrote it or produced it agrees with them.
	Did you see that?
	Oh yeah, it's the latest news.
	Hamilton did not own slaves.
	Hamilton was anti-slavery, but Hamilton married into a family.
	A wealthy family, and they did have slaves, and that's enough to cancel the show and American history.
	Riveuzone is an important product.
	If you overeat, which many Americans do, what you need is Riveuzone because it's composed of OEA, which The human body produces anyway.
	Doctors explained this to me because doctors made this thing.
	It even has a patent.
	And it's the only FDA accepted product with OEA. OEA tells your brain you're full.
	Simple as that.
	That's a big deal.

	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Thanks.
	Thank you.
	I am really, really, really, really happy with your response to my movie.
	Have you seen it yet?
	I would say something like, if you see it and don't like it, I'll give you your money back, but I can't do that legally.
	But I will tell you, you're not going to regret it.
	1999. You're not going to regret it.
	Listen to this one.
	This is one...
	I got from a Democrat.
	Headline, a great wake-up call for Democrats like myself.
	And here's what this person wrote.
	Don't know whether it's male or female.
	As a lifelong Democrat, this movie called attention to the failing of my party.
	Wow.
	I heard it said before that black Americans are disillusioned and fed up with being taken granted by the Democrats, only paid attention to during election cycle.
	So I felt it was my responsibility to really take these voices seriously.
	And I felt it was my responsibility to see your film.
	This hits to the core of it.
	I cannot accept ignorance any longer and feel any Democrat who is unwilling to see this film is intentionally failing to practice what they preach, which is that all black lives matter.
	A bitter pill to swallow, but absolutely necessary.
	Become a well-rounded, informed citizen and watch this film.
	End of quote.
	I am not making this up.
	I am not making this up.
	Well, it is a joy to be with you in an unjoyful period.
	Thank you.
	The damage that people like Gavin Newsom are doing will be recorded by history.
	They will go down as fools.
	That's simple as that.
	As arrogant fools.
	As they crush their state.
	Whatever state it might be, they crush it.
	Because they personally pay zero price.
	They get rewarded because they're Democrats, the state is overwhelmingly Democrat, and they're looked at as strong.
	It takes no strength to shut down the state.
	It takes strength to open it up.
	Zero strength.
	But who's going to take you on?
	The LA Times?
	The San Francisco Examiner?
	The San Diego, what is it?
	What is their paper?
	I know Tribune is in the name.
	I don't think.
	Is that the whole name?
	Union Tribune?
	No.
	Is it the Union Tribune News Daily Wire?
	Sorry?
	Union Tribune.
	So between the two of us, we excavated the truth.
	All right, I want you to hear the president.
	I don't do this.
	I've not done this with a Trump speech since he was elected.
	That is how important it is.
	Take it away.
	Oh, wait.
	When else?
	I'm sorry.
	Well, the Warsaw speech was very significant.
	I did go through it?
	Good.
	Okay.
	So it's a second, if that's the case.
	Here we go.
	Today we pay tribute to the exceptional lives and extraordinary legacies of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt.
	I am here as your president to proclaim before the country and before the world, this monument will never be desecrated.
	These heroes will never be defaced.
	Their legacy will never, ever be destroyed.
	Their achievements will never be forgotten.
	And Mount Rushmore will stand forever as an eternal tribute.
	to our forefathers, and to our freedom.
	All right, Matt, 21.
	We gather tonight to herald the most important day in the history of nations.
	July 4th, 1776.
	At those words, every American heart should swell with pride.
	Every American family should cheer with delight.
	And every American patriot should be filled with joy.
	Because each of you lives in the most magnificent country in the history of the world.
	And it will soon be greater than ever before.
	Not if she loses.
	Thank you.
	Our founders launched not only a revolution in government, but a revolution in the pursuit of justice, equality, liberty, and prosperity.
	No nation has done more to advance the human condition than the United States of America.
	And no people have done more to promote human progress than the citizens of our great nation.
	Tell me why that is not true.
	Why is there not more liberty on earth because of America than any other country?
	This is not a knock on other countries.
	If you say that Michael Jordan played basketball best, is it a knock on other players?
	I mean, it's just an absurdity.
	It's either true or not true.
	But it is not insulting.
	And prosperity?
	Has anything other than capitalism lifted people out of poverty?
	But the left is not interested in lifting people out of poverty.
	It is interested in power.
	And it is interested in the redistribution of wealth, which produces poverty.
	Next.
	It was all made possible by the courage of 56 patriots who gathered in Philadelphia 244 years ago and signed Sounds like a real racist,
	set in motion the unstoppable march of freedom our founders boldly declared that we are all endowed with the same divine rights given us by our creator in heaven Amen.
	And that which God has given us, we will allow no one ever to take away, ever.
	It's fantastic.
	Go on.
	And yet...
	As we meet here tonight, there is a growing danger that threatens every blessing our ancestors fought so hard for, struggled, they bled to secure...
	Did we lose the connection again?
	I really apologize to you, my...
	Okay, we really have to look into this.
	I will chip in for a new computer.
	How much could it be?
	Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, Erase our values and indoctrinate our children.
	Is that not correct?

	This is Owen Strand for townhall.com.
	It was heartwarming to see many of the planet's toughest and best athletes telling their children on social media how much they love them.
	In short videos, fathers played games with their kids, bear hugged them, and told them jokes, all in a tribute to dads on Father's Day.
	In a society that does little to encourage fathers, the NBA's efforts did not go unnoticed.
	Families are the essential building block of society, and fathers are the essential building block of the family.
	A home led by a father, especially a father with a spiritual focus and strong character, places flourishing within reach.
	Gender-neutral children do not need gender-neutral parents.
	Boys and girls need fathers and mothers bound by lifelong commitment.
	This isn't a prejudicial belief.
	Downplaying fatherhood sets us all up for disaster.
	Social media support is great, but we need more.
	We need a society that celebrates, honors, and ennobles fathers.
	I'm Owen Strand.
	Alliance Defending Freedom It's not just about money, money, money.
	It's about jobs, jobs, jobs as well.
	And we're going to discuss the latest news with our new regular guest, Trish Reagan.
	Let's play the video from just a few hours ago from the President of the United States, Eric Playvideo.
	In June, we added 2.1 million leisure and hospitality jobs, 740,000 retail jobs, 568,000 education and healthcare jobs, 357,000 service jobs, these are all historic numbers, and 356,000 manufacturing jobs.
	and manufacturing looks like it's ready to really take off at a level that it's never been before and a lot of that has to do with our trade policy because we're bringing manufacturing back to our country trish uh did anybody expect the results we got today to Talk to us about what we have heard just a few moments ago from the president.
	You know, listen, I was glad to see him out there.
	He needed to do that victory lap because people need a little good news right now, right, Seb?
	Almost 5 million jobs that were added.
	This is really incredible.
	And you know what it tells you?
	The recovery is underway.
	We are going to emerge from this intact.
	It's almost like, you know, you think about the Europeans, they like go away for the summer, they shut down for three months, and miraculously, their economy just boom, picks up right where it started.
	I mean, we're not right where we started, but we're getting there.
	And I could not be happier to see this news.
	Again, I was surprised that it was as big as it was.
	We got the 80- ADP report just yesterday, which indicated it was going to be good.
	But this good?

	That's right.
	Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo!
	Angry mobs are trying to tear down statues of our founders to face our most sacred memorials and unleash a wave of violent crime in our cities.
	Many of these people have no idea why they're doing this, but some know exactly what they are doing.
	That's right.
	Go on.
	One of their political weapons is cancel culture.
	Driving people from their jobs, shaming dissenters, and demanding total submission from anyone who disagrees.
	This is the very definition of totalitarianism.
	And it is completely alien to our culture and to our values.
	and it has absolutely no place in the United States of America.
	This attack on our liberty, our magnificent liberty, must be stopped and it will our magnificent liberty, must be stopped and it will be stopped very quickly.
	Thank you.
	We will expose this dangerous movement, protect our nation's children, end this radical assault, and preserve our beloved American way of life.
	In our schools, our newsrooms, Even our corporate boardrooms, there is a new far-left fascism that demands absolute allegiance.
	If you do not speak its language, perform its rituals, recite its mantras, and follow its commandments, then you will be censored, banished, blacklisted, persecuted, and punished.
	That's right.
	Not going to happen to us.
	Is there a word that is exaggerated, let alone untrue?
	Make no mistake, this left-wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the American Revolution.
	In so doing, they would destroy the very civilization that rescued billions from poverty, disease, violence and hunger, and that lifted humanity.
	Okay, we'll continue.
	It is a great speech, and it is a statement about anyone who does not see it as such.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	we continue.

	We've heard a lot about whether Justice Thomas will retire or not, but the name I keep hearing in my source world is Judge Amul Thapar, the federal judge in Kentucky, the former U.S. attorney in Kentucky, that he's seen as a favorite of Leader McConnell.
	And that if there is a narrow window, someone like him, if Thomas retires, who's young, 51 years old, who's seen as confirmable, could be moved this summer.
	And you think this is already a political and culture war in this country?
	Just wait for a possible...
	Oh, Robert, you should have called me.
	I don't report Buzz much, but since you brought it up, the stronger rumor is that Justice Alito is going to quit.
	Justice Thomas will never quit.
	And that Justice Alito opens up the opportunity to put on Ray Kethledge again or David Strauss or Don Willett, that if indeed Justice Thomas were to retire, it would be on multiple.
	That one's a done deal if it's Justice Thomas and multiple.
	Alito, huh?
	That's a great tip.
	That is what my...
	You know what happens at this time of the year is that people begin working the refs.
	And I'm hardly a ref, but I got a column in the Washington Post.
	And so they start working me about...
	You know, this person would be great if Alito quit.
	And this person would be great if Thomas quit.
	And everybody agrees with what you just said.
	If Thomas were to quit, he would say, look, I'm 72. I've done my share.
	But Robert, did you run into anyone who told you what he said?
	He swore the oath that he wasn't going to leave his job until the last person who voted against his nomination had left the Senate.
	Leahy's still there.
	How old is Justice Alito?
	I think he's 74. He might be 72. I'm not sure.
	But he hates...
	The buzz is his wife hates Washington, D.C. I'm glad to be with you and there's a lot of things going on.
	What is your sense of what is happening right now and what this president will need to do to be re-elected?
	This is the most consequential election since Abraham Lincoln in 1860. I think the difference between Biden, Pelosi and Schumer as a team and Trump and McCarthy and McConnell is...
	So wide that people can't imagine how different we'd be two years after you had Biden as president with Pelosi and Schumer basically dominating them.
	But they would take us to somewhere between California and Seattle.
	So I think what's happening is Trump challenged the entire national establishment starting with his nomination.
	When they first hated him, the first article about impeaching him is April of 2016, before he's even the nominee, followed up then by a whole series of other kinds of problems and an unending relentless attack by what I would call the propaganda media.
	And of course they spent the last...
	you know, four years trying to destroy Trump every single day.
	So this election is going to decide...
	Hello, my friends. my friends.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	My column this week is a question.
	If America is so racist, why are there so many race hoaxes?
	You would think that the last thing that any minority person would have to do in a racist, systemically racist, constantly racist, every white is a racist society, is make up.
	A hoax, right?
	So I list a dozen.
	I could probably list 50 if I did enough research.
	In fact, I assume if there's a noose somewhere or if there is something else like the N-word on a dorm room door, that it was a hoax.
	It doesn't mean every time it is.
	is I'm just telling you what I assume or white members of a team gang raped a black woman I I assume it didn't happen.
	So it's a very serious question.
	Why are so many made up if it's so...
	Why did Jussie Smollett make it up?
	Because it's so rare.
	That's why.
	There are racists in the United States.
	But these things are so rare that you have to make them up.
	And here's another proof of how little racism there is.
	The entire industry of getting rid of words.
	There's a serious, I can't believe, a serious piece in CNN. Everyday words and phrases that have racist connotations.
	Master bedroom.
	Why does that have a racist connotation?
	Does gas pump have a Holocaust connotation?
	Blacklists, whitelists in computing, the idiom sold down the river.
	Did you know that?
	Did you know that that was racist?
	Peanut Gallery, did you know that was racist?
	Words like slave and master.
	Are so folded into our vocabulary.
	Yes, I'm into photography.
	You have slave and master.
	The master is the camera, and the slave is the, or the trigger on the camera that triggers the slave lights.
	I've never thought of it as an affirmation of the beauty of slavery.
	Since black cameramen use the exact same words.
	So you know what they want to rename it instead of master and slave in photography flash?
	Something and follower.
	Leader and follower.
	Well, why isn't that somehow wrong?
	Who wants to be a follower?
	Words like slave and master are so folded into our vocabulary and almost unconsciously speak to the history of racial slavery and racism in the U.S., says Elizabeth Pryor, an associate professor of history at Smith College.
	Whenever I see a stupid quote, I assume it's a professor.
	And bravo, there I am.
	I'm right.
	Really.
	Words like slave and master are folded into a subconsciously speak to the history of racial slavery.
	But America's reckoning with systemic racism, see, it's not even alleged, it's just declared by CNN as fact, is now forcing a more critical look at the language we use.
	And while the offensive nature of many of these words and phrases has long been documented, some institutions are only now beginning to drop them from the lexicon.
	Pryor suggests, because she has too much time on her hands as a professor, people think about the context certain words can carry and how using them could alienate others.
	Language works best when it brings as many people into communication with each other.
	If we know by using certain language we're disinviting certain people from the conversation, language isn't doing its job.
	See, this pablum is never given meat.
	I never know, what are you talking about?
	How am I disinviting people by using this language?
	Here are some familiar words and phrases you might consider dropping from your vocabulary.
	This is a serious article.
	This is not from The Onion.
	In real estate, master bedrooms and bathrooms.
	What's wrong with that?
	Nationally, 42% of current property listings on Zillow use the term master.
	In reference to a bedroom or bath.
	That's going to change soon.
	The phrase master bedroom first appeared in the 1926 Sears catalog, according to the real estate blog Trelara.
	Okay.
	Master bedrooms were more widely implemented in American homes after World War II. But slavery had ended in 1865. World War II ended in 1945. So that's 80 years later.
	Do you get the connection?
	You're missing the connection, aren't you?
	You know, I asked for a sharp producer, and then what did I get?
	Man does not see the connection.
	But I'm on your level.
	I don't see the connection either, so I'm not that sharp either.
	While it's unclear, you'll love this, while it's unclear whether the term is rooted in American slavery on plantations, it evokes that history.
	What does that mean, it evokes that history?
	It's the master bedroom.
	This is the master bedroom.
	This is the kid's bedroom.
	What are they now?
	The owner's bedroom?
	What has it changed?
	Why is owner okay?
	People own slaves.
	Why is bedroom okay?
	Only slave owners had bedrooms.
	Slaves didn't have bedrooms.
	Right?
	Why doesn't bedroom connote slavery?
	You don't have an answer to that, do you?
	Now, because of its slavery-era connotations, which they just made up, some members of the real estate industry are now calling to retire the term master.
	In computer technology, master-slave tech engineers use these terms to describe components of software and hardware in which one process or device controls another.
	The terms have been around for decades, and they've long raised concerns.
	In 2014, the programming language Drupal replaced master-slave terminology with primary replica.
	Django opted to use leader-follower.
	Oh, that's where I got it from.
	Python, one of the most popular programming languages in the world, eliminated the terms in 2018. And last week Twitter announced it's dropping Master, Slave, and Blacklist from its code after two engineers lobbied for the use of more inclusive programming language.
	Inclusive.
	Don't you love that term?
	You realize whenever these terms, it's all Orwellian, it all means the opposite.
	The last people who are inclusive are these people.
	You think like us or you're excluded.
	Words matter, a Twitter engineer said about the move.
	Blacklist, whitelist.
	In tech, a blacklist refers to a directory of specific elements, such as email addresses, IP addresses, or URLs that are blocked.
	A whitelist, by contrast, is made up of elements that are allowed.
	Though the origins of those terms don't appear to be directly connected to race, some argue they reinforce notions that black is bad and white is good.
	Yeah, but whitewash is bad.
	In the black is good.
	Right?
	My company is in the black.
	That means it's good.
	It makes profit.
	Well, I guess you could keep that then.
	I don't know why.
	It's clearly racist.
	1-8 Prager 776. I'm Dennis Prager.
	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	Trending now on the Mike Dillinger Show.
	The New York Times is reporting how Mount Rushmore was built on land that belonged to the Lakota tribe And sculpted by a man who had strong bonds with the Ku Klux Klan, it features the faces of two U.S. presidents who were slaveholders.
	That's an actual tweet from the New York Times.
	Now, PragerU points out that the same New York Times, which has a storied history, its founding editor was a guy named Henry Jarvis Raymond.
	In 1851, the New York Times founding editor published an editorial in which he supported a slave owner's legal right to recover his escaped slaves.
	So, Prager, you had an interesting question to the New York Times.
	Will you guys also be canceling yourselves, since you want everything canceled?
	How far does this go?
	Chris.
	You're first up on the Mike Gallagher show.
	How are you, Chris?
	Good.
	I thought it was ironic that October 12th this year falls on a Monday.
	And, of course, October 12th was the day that, historically, Christopher Columbus discovered America, which is the original Christopher Columbus, the real reason why it's all day.
	I honestly, I mean, really, Chris, you've got to help me here.
	You've got to tell me what Christopher Columbus has to do with the racial dialogue that has emerged after the killing of George Floyd at the hands of a police officer in Minneapolis.
	Please connect it for me.
	There's a good reason for that, right?
	Well, yeah, look, the Democrats are the party of racism.
	The KKK was founded by the Democrat Party.
	The Democrat Party worked overtime to try to keep in place Jim Crow after they tried to keep in place slavery, after they tried to stop the progress of the civil rights movement, the actual civil rights movement from the 20th century.
	The Democrat Party is...
	I know we talked about this last time.
	The four speakers whose portraits that Nancy Pelosi was taking down, they were all Democrats.
	All those Confederates, all four speakers were Democrats.
	The Democrat Party has a history of racism, of bigotry, of, again, creating the Ku Klux Klan.
	It was created by Democrats, of pushing to try to keep in place Jim Crow.
	And fighting the Civil Rights Act.
	And fighting it.
	Right.
	The Democrat Party is littered with bad history.
	It's a Republican Party that was the champion of women's and civil rights.
	And it's important to note that.
	Look, Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican president, right?
	Like, Abraham Lincoln, who freed the slaves, the Emancipation Proclamation, held the union together during the Civil War, was a Republican.
	He was the first Republican.
	And it's worth noting that the Democrats, I think that as they're doing all this chaos and trying to tear down statues in history and so on and so forth and rewrite history, they're trying to erase their own history.
	And they don't want, I mean, God forbid the public found out that the Democrat Party caused the KKK.

	I've said that the left wants to undo the American Revolution.
	The president said it at Mount Rushmore.
	I am reading to you from CNN. It is actually a serious article about all the racist terms that we don't realize that are used in daily language.
	This is another one of my arguments as a proof of how little racism there is in America.
	That this is the stuff that they have to look for.
	Just as the hoaxes are a proof of how little racism there is in America.
	If there was a lot of racism, you wouldn't need all of the hoaxes.
	Jussie Smollett would just have to wait for this to happen.
	He wouldn't have had to have his colleagues buy a noose.
	Correct?
	The world of the lie is the world of the left.
	It has never been different since Lenin.
	At CNN, they are a modern incarnation of Pravda.
	I never used this language until very recently, but I read Pravda every day at the Russian Institute at Columbia, where I did my graduate work.
	Truth is what Lennon said it was.
	Truth is what CNN and the New York Times say it is.
	It is not an objective thing.
	In fact, I just saw, where was it, Seattle, where they're doing training on racism with the workers?
	The word objectivity, I've reported this in the past, is now considered a white supremacist term.
	Objectivity means truth.
	Truth is a white supremacist term.
	Just so you should know.
	That is why it is an existential battle for the survival of the West.
	It is rooted in the pursuit of truth.
	It is the motto of Harvard, Veritas, truth.
	I continue now with more of the examples to show you the asininity of the charge that America is racist.
	This is what they have to find.
	In sports, ready?
	The Masters Tournament, right?
	The Masters Tournament, you didn't know that, did you?
	It's racist, my friend.
	So when Tiger Woods, did Tiger Woods win the Masters?
	How does that work?
	Is it a black master?
	It's one of the four major tournaments on the PGA Tour and is usually simply called the Masters.
	The history of the name goes back to 1934 when the tournament was first held at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia.
	Clifford Roberts, one of the co-founders, wanted to call the event the Masters Tournament, according to the tournament's website.
	But co-founder Bobby Jones rejected the idea over concerns that it was too presumptuous.
	So, let's see now.
	Roberts finally got his way in 1939. The name appears to have been a reference to golfers with great skills.
	Right, isn't that what any honest human being understands?
	You're a master golfer.
	But its connotations have brought the name under scrutiny by the left that looks for Clues to America's racism.
	Deadspin sports writer.
	Did you ever hear of Deadspin?
	Okay.
	Rob Parker recently called on the tournament to change its name.
	When sports writers start talking about society, they really do become stupid.
	But I know why.
	See, it's like with actors.
	They think that what they do is not important.
	So they want to become important, and then they become philosophers of society, which means being generally unwise that they take a left-wing position.
	Fifty years ago, sports writers wrote about sports.
	Actors talked about acting.
	Somebody was writing to me that for relaxation in this tense time, they watched the Johnny Carson show reruns.
	I was a young person.
	It wasn't even alive at the time that Johnny Carson was popular.
	It's a good idea.
	I told you, but I don't expect any of you to remember.
	It's a very touching story.
	I have a friend from 50 years ago.
	No, not 50, 40 years ago.
	And he was always a liberal, and he was, I would say, a liberal left.
	Not fully left.
	We haven't been in touch much.
	We're in touch maybe every 10 years.
	He told me a few years ago that he's a big movie buff.
	He did something.
	He decided to get every 1950s film he could.
	If he had to buy the DVD, he bought a DVD, or streaming, or any way he could.
	He would just devote himself.
	He and his wife, to watching 1950s movies.
	And then, to his great credit, he admitted, I now understand why people look upon that period with nostalgia.
	And of course, the guy is on the left, I have to explain.
	And nobody is nostalgic for Jim Crow, just for the record.
	But there were very many good things.
	The trick of society is to bring people who have been ostracized into the good things that you have created.
	You don't destroy the good things you have created because there have been people who have been ostracized and not admitted.
	Tiger Woods is one of the masters, he's a master's master, he's master to the fifth.
	That's right.
	Deadspin sports writer Rob Parker called on the tournament to change its name.
	Parker argues the name evokes slave masters in the U.S. South, especially given the history of the golf course where it is held.
	For decades, Augusta National Golf Club required that all caddies be black.
	It also banned black golfers from the Masters Tournament until 1975, when Lee Elders broke its color barrier.
	That's 45 years ago.
	So what?
	Why does that pertain to today?
	Is anybody defending that racist or Jim Crow path?
	Black members weren't admitted to the club until 1990, and women weren't admitted until 2012. What does that have to do with anything?

	Let's go.
	In your opinion, did the demonstrations that were not only inevitable but probably necessary following the murder of George Floyd, did they contribute to the resurgence of the pandemic in a significant way?
	I think as just a matter of intuition and common sense, I think you have to say yes.
	You look at the explosion in young cases.
	I know that there are some counterexamples.
	You know, in Minnesota, it wasn't from protests.
	It was from bars being open.
	But as a general sense...
	I think absolutely.
	I think the larger damage from those protests in terms of the COVID part is the absolute discrediting of the epidemiological establishment to be taken seriously because the second you say you can these rules are really important will save lives so you shouldn't do the things that you really care about but the things that we really care about it's a free-for-all and So there's now just a large constituency on the left and right that will not listen to these people.
	They sold their credibility for a little sort of woke profile in response to a truly horrific thing.
	And you can't get that toothpaste back into the tube if you said, you know, going to church or your parents' funeral, that is a selfish thing that is going to get people killed.
	But going out for day 11 of protests, that is an honorable and glorious thing and you should be allowed to do it.
	You can't have those kinds of double standards and expect to have credibility going forward.
	Read the Washington Post editorial this morning on this, because I am completely convinced the pandemic is back because of these demonstrations, at least half of it.

	Changing Columbus Day to Juneteenth is the craziest thing I've ever heard.

	Where does it stop?
	It's a reasonable question.
	You're allowed to ask it, I think.
	At least you used to be.
	This used to be America, where we could have conversations.
	We could have exchanges.
	We could have disagreement and not expect to be...

	Saw some video last night.
	Some woman had some dispute with neighbors over a stone patio being built in their yard.
	They recorded her.
	She happened to be white.
	They happened to be black.
	It got turned into a racial thing.
	And before you know it, she had hundreds of protesters in front of her door protesting her racism.
	Because she's a...
	It seemed to me like she's a nosy neighbor that didn't think the other neighbors were allowed to build a stone patio where they built them.

	It was heartwarming to see many of the planet's toughest and best athletes telling their children on social media how much they love them.
	In short videos, fathers played games with their kids, bear hugged them, and told them jokes, all in a tribute to dads on Father's Day.
	In a society that does little to encourage fathers, the NBA's efforts did not go unnoticed.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	I want you to very calmly say to people, if this is what we have to do to show that America is racist, it shows you what a lie it is that America is racist.
	If Master Bedroom and the Masters Tournament are now racist, then you realize how trivial the racism in America must be.

	Is it clear where they sign up?
	Really?
	All right.
	We're not done.
	Alright?
	It gets more preposterous.
	Because the charge that America is a racist society is preposterous.
	There are racists in it.
	The charge that American society is anti-Semitic is preposterous, but there are anti-Semites in it.
	Get my point?
	It's not a very subtle point.
	It should be perceived by anyone who doesn't have a PhD.
	Ready?
	We're not done.
	Next, Masters Tournament goes.
	Peanut Gallery.
	The phrase typically refers to the cheapest seats in the theater.
	And is informally used to describe critics or hecklers.
	When someone says no comments from the peanut gallery, it implies that a certain group of commentators is rowdy or uninformed.
	Okay, so the term...
	Now, is there anybody listening who thinks peanut gallery is racist?
	Is there any black listening who thinks peanut gallery is racist?
	All right.
	The term dates back to the vaudeville era of the late 19th century and referred to the sections of the theater where black people, by the way, they now capitalize black.
	It took one week for this to be official.
	They did it to my column because AP now insists on it.
	I said I don't believe in AP. I believe.
	I am not politically correct, so I do not spell.
	I don't understand why black would be capitalized.
	It's a color.
	I don't think white should be capitalized.
	But they're always changing.
	This is now an improvement, see?
	The impact on black lives will be substantial because black is now capitalized on the left.
	All right, so it's where black people usually sat.
	Jeffrey Barg, who writes a language column for the Philadelphia Inquirer, noted recently, That the first documented use of peanut gallery appeared in the New Orleans Times' Picayune in 1867. The term was cemented in pop culture in the 1940s when the radio show Howdy Doody...
	Is that not racist?
	The second I heard Howdy Doody, my skin crawled.
	...used it to refer to its live audience of children.
	That name also carried over to the TV version of Howdy Doody in the 1950s.
	You know, you would not do well at CNN. What's racist about that exactly?
	What is wrong with you?
	You are the opposite of woke.
	You are the opposite of woke.
	You are the opposite of woke.
	That's the bad old days there.
	Next, we're not done.
	In law, grandfathered in.
	I didn't get that either, yeah.
	The legal term broadly refers to the grandfather clause adopted by seven southern states during the Reconstruction era.
	Under it, anyone who was able to vote before 1867 was exempt from the literacy tests, property requirements, and poll taxes.
	Okay, so grandfathered in.
	Cakewalk.
	It's what we call an easy victory.
	The cakewalk originated as a dance performed by enslaved black people on plantations before the Civil War.
	See this?
	Now, you all know that removing these things from language, which nobody assumes has anything to do with race, it will have no effect.
	This is what the left does.

	That's, that's, alright.
	Yes, indeed.

	I believe the legacy and the ancestry of black Americans is being insulted every single day.
	I will not pretend to be a victim in this country.
	I know that that makes many people on the left uncomfortable.
	Racist.
	Racism.
	A thousand cuts of racism.
	The liberal will try to control a black person through the concept of racism because they know that we are very proud, emotional people.
	I never felt that because I was black or I was poor or a woman that I couldn't do something.
	I grew up being told of my disadvantages, that this country is unfair to black people.
	The ideology is implanted into you subconsciously to believe these things.
	It's like a cancerous plague in the mind of black Americans.
	We're brainwashed to think, is it because I'm black?
	America's not ours, so we got shipped here.
	No.
	Our blood is on this soil.
	We own this too.
	There should be a pride that we have in the fact that this country was built by many great black men and women.
	Are you trying to say that this country does not specialize in racism and bigotry?
	So long as black people continue to have their psyche filled by that nonsense, we won't have an awakening.

	When Bill Clinton, after twice vetoing almost identically worded bills, finally signed the Welfare Reform Act, One of the reasons he got elected is because he was going to be a different Democrat.
	We're going to change welfare as we know it.
	He said it during the 1992 campaign.
	It didn't do anything.
	And then Dick Morris said, when he's running for re-election, look, if you want to win this election, you have to fulfill this campaign promise.
	So Bill Clinton signed the Welfare Reform Act of 1996. 1996, 1994?
	1996, I think it was.
	And a bunch of liberals, his own party, they were furious.
	Furious!
	One of the children's advocates is a woman named Marian Wright-Elements.
	She stopped speaking to Hillary.
	They were good friends.
	Members of the Congressional Caucus said that when this bill goes through, There are going to be people sleeping on the grates outside because they're going to be so poor.
	What happened?
	Welfare roles declined almost 50%, far steeper than the most optimistic projections were, without a corresponding increase in abortion.
	It turned out a whole bunch of able-bodied people and able-minded people, when they found out they were going to...

	There we go.
	Pound 250. Pure Talk USA. They have all sorts of other plans if you want more than two gigs of data.
	Pound 250. Say Dennis Prager.
	Anyway, this is a serious piece.
	It's an example of the lack of seriousness at CNN. It's a buffoon.
	Gigantic farce.
	I'm sorry to say it.
	I wish it weren't.
	It didn't start out to be a farce.
	But remember, everything the left touches it ruins.
	There was no exception to that.
	CNN, New York Times.
	They kicked out their editor because he published a piece just last month.
	They actually kicked out the editor.
	The lefter, he was left, but they were lefter than him.
	He thought that a piece by a very important U.S. senator as a Republican on what to do about the riots was worthy of publishing.
	They didn't.
	They kicked him out.
	How dare you publish a piece by a Trump-supporting senator?
	It never happened before.
	They were shocked.
	God forbid our readers should read.
	Even Bret Stephens wrote against the decision in the New York Times.
	I don't know what cognitive dissonance is at work in my friend Bret Stephens, and he is my friend.

	Cakewalk.
	Yeah.
	Can't use lynch mob.
	Yeah.
	All right.
	Anyway, that's it.
	Language.
	Totalitarians always change language.
	Now black is capitalized.
	Anybody?
	Do you know the reason?
	Because it's now, it's a designated group.
	By the way, I'm not joking.
	This is, I do joke around, but I'm not joking at all.
	Remember the woman with the NAACP who said she was a black?
	If sex is not fixed, why is race fixed?
	Yeah, yeah, Dolezal.
	I was right, yeah.
	Nobody's ever answered that question.
	Why can't one say one is and then fill in?
	By the way, man isn't capitalized.
	Woman isn't capitalized.
	Oh, they'll never capitalize it because that implies a certain fixatuity, fixatiousness.
	All right, let's see what you have to say.
	Oh, oh yeah.
	You know what?

	Elijah in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
	Hi.
	Hi, Dennis.
	How are you?
	Better than my country.
	Thank you.
	Well, I'd probably have to agree with you on that.
	I guess my concern is, Dennis, with the removal of a master from the master bedroom, where does it end?
	I mean, in the military, we have master sergeant.
	That's right.
	And then there's the double offensive rank of master chief when you think that we culturally appropriated chief from Native American culture.
	That's right.
	Wow.
	And in education, what about a master's degree?
	That's right.
	I corrected somebody who mentioned on a call to me that she had a master's.
	That's right.
	I'm ahead of the curve.
	You know what?
	Thank you.
	You're so right.
	You see, you know there's another explanation for all of this.
	One explanation is how little racism there is.
	This is what they have to look for.
	This is the proof how little there is.
	But it's also something else.
	The left is soulless.
	They're empty.
	There's a deep, deep hole.
	They believe in nothing.
	You have to understand they believe in destruction.
	Tell me what the left builds other than power.
	Other than the state, what does the left build?
	Nothing.
	You understand it just destroys music, art, religion, America, freedom, journalism, colleges, high schools.
	That it's a force of destruction because it's composed of people who are empty.
	They don't believe in America.
	They don't believe in Judeo-Christian values.
	Well, no, they'll say they do in some cases.
	They don't believe in the Bible.
	They don't believe in the God of the Bible.
	They're very rarely regular attenders of a house of worship.
	This is what gives them meaning.
	Ah, I am fighting racism.
	I now have meaning.
	You must understand, because the urge for meaning is the greatest urge in the human being.
	It is greater than the sex urge.
	There are people who do not have sex and are happy.
	There are no people without meaning who are happy.
	By the way, it's best to have sex and meaning, just for the record.
	I'd like to be on record as having said that.
	Nevertheless, what I said happens to be true.
	People, for whatever reasons, including Catholic priests or nuns, I voluntarily don't have.
	Or people waiting for marriage.
	But meaning?
	You can't live without meaning.
	This is the post-Judeo-Christian meaning leftism.
	I am fighting master bedroom.
	I now have meaning.

	Speaker Gingrich, welcome to the show.
	I'm glad to be with you and there's a lot of things going on.
	What is your sense of what is happening right now and what this president will need to do to be re-elected?
	This is the most consequential election since Abraham Lincoln in 1860. I think the difference between Biden, Pelosi and Schumer as a team and Trump and McCarthy and McConnell.
	Is so wide that people can't imagine how different we'd be two years after you had Biden as president with Pelosi and Schumer basically dominating him.
	But they would take us to somewhere between California and Seattle.
	So I think what's happening is Trump challenged the entire national establishment.
	Starting with his nomination, when they first hated him.
	The first article about impeaching him was April of 2016, before he was even the nominee.
	Followed up then by a whole series of other kinds of problems.
	And an unending relentless attack by what I would call the propaganda media.
	And of course they spent the last...
	You know, four years trying to destroy Trump every single day.
	So this election is going to decide whether we continue to go down that road or whether we end up deciding that we really do want to become a radically different country.

	We got 1.427 million jobs added to the American economy.

	Two huge things to be learned from that.
	I have to repeat it because you'll forget it.
	It's the only way I remember anything is through repetition.
	One, it shows it's proof of how little racism there is in America, that you have to concoct.
	This is all a concoction.
	And the other is the emptiness of these people's lives, that this is what gives them meaning.

	When Bill Clinton, after twice vetoing almost identically worded bills, finally signed the Welfare Reform Act.
	One of the reasons he got elected is because he was going to be a different Democrat.
	We're going to change welfare as we know it.
	He said it during the 1992 campaign.
	It didn't do anything.
	And then Dick Morris said, when he's running for re-election, look, if you want to win this election, you have to do something to fulfill this campaign promise.
	So Bill Clinton signed the Welfare Reform Act of 1996.

	You know, that's one of the significant things in America is we look at past generations through today's filter and today's lens, and you really can't do that.
	It's interesting to me that back in Genesis 9, when you see about Noah, and God chose Noah, And the Bible in Genesis 9, 6 says that Noah was a righteous man.
	And then it says, in his generation.
	We know that Noah had trouble with drunkenness and other things as well.
	But when you compare him to where he was in his day, he was so far ahead of everyone else.
	And so what's happening is we're comparing our standards of today and trying to impose them back.
	And let me explain why that matters.
	We have...
	5,500 years of recorded history at the time of Wilberforce.
	England is the first nation in the history of the world to abolish slavery, and we're talking 1833. People think abolition and equality has been the state of the world all the way through.
	We're talking America, 1865, when we passed the 13th Amendment, 1865, we were the fourth nation in the world to abolish slavery.
	So abolition is a relatively new thing in the world.
	And by the way, there are 94 nations in the world today where slavery is still legal.
	So half the world still has legal slavery, and we're all concerned about America and how that we had racism in 1865. It took us that long to abolish slavery.
	No, no.
	We're one of the leading nations in the world in shooting for equality.
	We were not late to the party.
	We were early to the party, number four in the world.
	And by the way, we were number one in the world.
	In passing a law to abolish the slave trade, that's 1807. That were not only inevitable,
	but probably necessary following the murder of George Floyd.
	Did they contribute to the resurgence of the pandemic in a significant way?
	I think as just a matter of intuition and common sense, I think you have to say yes.
	You look at the explosion in young cases.
	I know that there are some counter examples.
	You know, in Minnesota, it wasn't from protests.
	It was from bars being open.
	But as a general sense, I think absolutely.
	I think the larger damage.
	From those protests, in terms of the COVID part, is the absolute discrediting of the epidemiological establishment to be taken seriously.
	Because the second you say, these rules are really important, will save lives, so you shouldn't do the things that you really care about, but the things that we really care about, it's a free-for-all.
	And so there's now just a large constituency on the left and right that will not listen to these people.
	They sold their credibility for a little sort of woke profile in response to a truly horrific thing.
	And you can't get that toothpaste back into the tube if you said, you know, going to church or Every
	Tuesday, the third hour of the Dennis Prager show, when Dennis Prager is here, which is 99% of the time.
	You know what percent of the time?
	It's interesting.
	I'm not here 99. I'd say 95% of the time.
	Anyway, when I'm here, Tuesday, the third hour, is the ultimate issues hour.
	Never has it been clearer, or should be as...
	Never...
	Should it be as clear as now?
	Whew!
	How important having clarity about ultimate issues is.
	What is civilization?
	What is truth?
	What matters?
	Is freedom a value?
	Who cherishes it?
	The biggest questions.
	And, of course, God.
	One nation under God.
	Boy, does the left mock that.
	I don't think there's anything That's national.
	That infuriates them because they are gods.
	This is the great battle since the Garden of Eden.
	Take it as a parable or literal, it's irrelevant to me.
	But that's what the battle is.
	The serpent says to Adam and Eve, Hey, you eat from that tree, you'll be like God.
	The Hebrew is no, but it really means determine.
	You will determine good and evil.
	The idea that God determines good and evil is so noxious.
	God tells me to honor my parents?
	Are you kidding?
	My father voted for Trump.
	I'm going to honor him?
	That is a typical leftist's thought.
	Whoa.
	I just kicked a garbage can.
	That is what happened in the background.
	It might have sounded like a terror attack, so I wanted to relieve all of you.
	That you should know that.
	Was that heard?
	Did I need to explain the noise?
	Yes, it was valuable.
	See, I was quick thinking on my part.
	You know, there are very few people who would think to ask that question.
	Thank you.
	You know what he just asked me?
	Is the garbage can okay?
	You know, that does not speak well for you.
	You should ask, how is my foot?
	Your lack of compassion.
	All right, anyway, ladies and gentlemen, I want to read to you something on this Ultimate Issues Hour.
	And this is...
	On many levels, an ultimate issue.
	A. Truth.
	And B. Values.
	This is from the New York Times.
	And it was just printed.
	Philadelphia.
	has recorded nearly 30% more homicides this year compared with last year, 2019. Officials said the year is on track to be the worst since 2007 when the city was besieged by an epidemic of gun violence.
	Now listen to the comment of Daniel L. Clark.
	The City Council President of Philadelphia.
	Now, I don't know Daniel Clark from Adam.
	So, this is not personal.
	Anyway, he's interchangeable with his fellow Democrats.
	Listen to what he ascribes.
	This massive increase in murder in Philadelphia.
	Okay.
	One, the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.
	Okay, let's analyze each of these for truth.
	Why would that increase murder?
	Do you know?
	People are bored in the lockdown.
	Hey, you know what?
	Hey, guys.
	Got nothing better to do today.
	Let's kill some people.
	Maybe?
	I obviously don't relate to that.
	Next.
	The unrest triggered by George Floyd's murder.
	What's that have to do with the increase in murder?
	Hey, George Floyd was killed.
	Let's kill.
	Don't quite see that.
	Escalating poverty.
	Why is there escalating poverty?
	Until the lockdown, the highest employment rate in the inner city ever recorded.
	I guess it's escalating poverty due to lockdown.
	Maybe the lockdown has not been a good idea.
	Which is, of course, in my position.
	Broiling summer heat.
	Yeah, but it was a broiling summer heat last summer in Philadelphia.
	And a flood of illegal guns.
	I'm sure that there are more illegal guns this year than last year.
	In other words, it's all nonsense.
	Every single thing he said is irrelevant to the truth.
	These have created a toxic mix of despair in our city, and we must address it.
	Yeah, you know, I feel a little despair.
	How come everybody I know that felt despair didn't go out and murder?
	I guess they didn't despair enough.
	This is what goes for...
	intelligent talk today in America.
	Now, it's interesting He didn't include racism.
	Did you notice that?
	Now, why not?
	Do you know why?
	Because that would suggest that the murderers were almost all black.
	See?
	That's the reason he didn't include racism.
	That he was between a rock and a hard place.
	And since everything else is blamed, every pathology in the inner city or anywhere in persons of color life is attributed to white racism.
	But if he does that here, he acknowledges that the increase in murder is overwhelmingly among black murderers.
	So that's why he didn't include the usual.
	The culprit of white supremacy.
	Truth is not a value, and that's why it's on the Ultimate Issues Hour.
	And the other example of truth not being a value, then I'm going to talk about values, is how about this?
	The police have pulled back.
	Is that the most obvious single reason?
	It's astonishing that he wouldn't acknowledge.
	This is the head of the city council in Philadelphia, and he'll be re-elected.
	That's the amazing thing.
	Be re-elected.
	You think this comment is a service to his community?
	But you can't acknowledge.
	Look, we want to defund the police, we Democrats.
	So why would we acknowledge?
	As the Atlanta mayor did, by the way.
	She said, you know, she's seeing the vast increase in murders in Atlanta.
	And she said, well, you know, you can't blame everything on the police.
	She got a lot of blowback for that one.
	Police aren't doing these killings.
	She said something to that effect.
	I'll get you the exact quote.
	Now, truth is a victim.
	I have said all of my life lies are the root of evil.
	They are.
	You can't have big evil without lies.
	You can have little evils.
	People can hold up a store.
	People could murder somebody they robbed.
	But lies are the root of massive evil.
	When we come back, I'll get you the values issue and how that was missing from the statement.

	In your opinion, did the demonstrations that were not only inevitable but probably necessary following the murder of George Floyd, did they contribute to the resurgence of the pandemic in a significant way?

	Changing Columbus Day to Juneteenth is the craziest thing I've ever heard.
	And where does it stop?
	I mean, they're tearing down statues, changing names of schools and military bases.
	Where does it stop?
	It's a reasonable question.
	You're allowed to ask it, I think.
	At least you used to be.
	This used to be America where we could have conversations.
	Hi, everybody. everybody.
	Dennis Prager here.
	It's the Ultimate Issues Hour, and I want to apply it to very recent events.
	In other words, actually, the last days.
	Comments by officials in Philadelphia, and I'll give you Chicago, the staggering increase in murder, overwhelmingly in black neighborhoods.
	In Chicago, Philadelphia, New York, I mean, all over the country.
	And I read to you, the head of the city council of Philadelphia, his explanation was, COVID-19, George Floyd's murder, escalating poverty, summer heat, and illegal guns.
	Not a word about values and not a word about the police pulling back, which is the most obvious immediate reason for the increase in murder.
	The police are pulling back.
	But to acknowledge that means that this whole sick idea of defunding the police, so popular on the left, All it does is lead to death and mayhem.
	I truly believe it doesn't bother most of these people.
	They have to act like it bothers them, but they can't even mention the police aspect.
	So that was the head of the city council in Philadelphia.
	Here is the mayor of Chicago.
	She was asked, why is there so much more murder in Chicago?
	I think to answer that question, you have to also look at what has been the legacy of racism and segregation and lack of investment in our city.
	Get that?
	That's why.
	The legacy of racism.
	So does she, I'm just curious, does she hold the people, do black murderers in her mind have guilt?
	I don't know the answer.
	I don't know.
	...of racism and segregation and lack of investment in our city.
	That is really what's causing a lot of this.
	Hold on, hold on.
	So you heard, so this is the mayor of Chicago, why there's so much more murder.
	And you heard the head of city council in Philadelphia, I read, you didn't hear him, I read what he said.
	So in her case, you hear, this is what it is.
	Racism, segregation, and lack of investment in our city.
	Yeah.
	Who's not investing in Chicago?
	Okay, do you want to continue?
	Violence is an explosion, but there's a root cause underneath that.
	And in too many of our neighborhoods, historically, we have not invested enough in making sure that we've got access to good health care, to good jobs, schools.
	Okay.
	So the reason people murder in the inner city is they don't have access to good health care, good jobs, and schools.
	First, well, just for the record, there were more jobs created by Donald Trump among black Americans than it was the highest employment rate of black America on record.
	The schools, they are not given school choice.
	Because the teachers' unions oppose them, because teachers' unions care about students as much as communists cared about workers.
	Teachers' unions use students, feminists use women, communists use workers, leftists use racism, use blacks.
	It's all it is.
	It's the use of others.
	While you hurt them.
	It's very dark.
	But it's utterly true.
	So that's the reason people murder.
	Nothing about fathers.
	Nothing about church.
	You think a black kid in the inner city.
	In the inner city.
	Not even middle class American.
	The inner city.
	Black kid.
	Grows up with a father.
	Goes to church weekly.
	He's been taught the Ten Commandments.
	Do you think this person is less likely, equally likely, or more likely to become a murderer?
	What would a leftist answer that question?
	I almost, always in my mind, I almost always know what a leftist would answer a challenge.
	So, I'm just curious.
	Ye who hold PhDs and who run the New York Times and CNN and our universities, if a black kid in the inner city, forget middle class, inner city, grows up with a father, And goes to church each week and studies the Ten Commandments.
	Do you have a better answer to preventing the kid from becoming a murderer than that?
	More money?
	We haven't spent beyond belief amounts of money?
	In this country?
	In the world of welfare?
	Trillions, is that correct?
	Trillions.
	That's why it's the ultimate issues hour.
	These are ultimate issues hours.
	You want to continue with her?
	Do you have the rest of it there?
	That was it.
	I'll read to you more.
	Fundamentally giving residents in crime-plagued neighborhoods a sense of hope and optimism that the city sees them and the city, all of us, is supportive of them.
	That's it.
	That's what the murderers lack.
	An instilled sense of optimism.
	It's amazing.
	Okay.
	1-8 Prager 776-877-243-776 I've given you the responses of the head of the City Council of Philadelphia and the mayor of the city of Chicago on why there is so much more murder in the inner cities this year than last year.
	Not a word about police?
	That's the truth element.
	Not a word about values.

	The appeal of believing we could do things and succeed without God must be very deep in the human consciousness, human psyche.
	I'm God, I don't need God.
	That's really what it amounts to.
	If you don't need God, you're God.
	Not the creator of the universe, just God, the creator of right and wrong.
	This is not religious argumentation or apologetics.
	It's just logic.
	Somebody's got to determine right and wrong, and if it isn't going to be God and or the Bible, or not or, and the Bible, then it's going to be you.
	Look, what a great job we've done with that.
	Not to mention, people who are religious did a crappy job, too.
	I fully acknowledge it.
	Crappy religious people are the worst.
	1-8 Prager 776-877-243-7776 If you were the mayor of Chicago, if you were the president of the Philadelphia City Council, how would you explain the rise in murder, the massive rise this year over last?
	That's the ultimate issue of the Ultimate Issues Hour.
	How would you explain the worst of all crimes, murder?
	1-8 Prager 776 Los Angeles, Jackie.
	Hello, Jackie.
	Yeah, hi.
	I just want to tell you that it's been a long time.
	It took a long time to call you, but I belong to Benet David at the same time as you did, and you get to call you sometime.
	Great, great.
	Go ahead.
	Anyway, I just want to say that my mother grew up in the 30s and early 40s in Chicago.
	It was a black neighborhood predominantly.
	There were some Polish, Germans, whatever, and were Jewish, and they lived in the back of a store.
	And they sold dry goods, clothes, and different things like that.
	The father was in the home at that time, in the black neighborhood.
	They were never, ever robbed.
	They never, ever bothered.
	The only time that they were robbed was by three white guys, and that was a time they don't kill witnesses, because my mother said she was peeking, and they said, don't peek.
	And just that funny story.
	The only complaint they ever had is this young black woman said that her...
	Mother lived in a Jewish home for 30 years, and they kept kosher, and now that they died and she moved back with them, they have to have separate refrigerators.
	Well, you know, my parents told a similar story.
	My mother in New York City, Brooklyn, where she was born, my mother would walk home alone from the subway station at 2 a.m.
	There was no thought of violent crime.
	Same time, the 30s.

	The economy showing some really, really strong signs.
	The economy added a record 4.8 million jobs last month.
	A lot of African-American jobs coming back.
	Hundreds of thousands.
	I think the president said 800,000.
	Economists and experts were watching.
	The June jobs report closely.
	Our unemployment rate has dropped to 11.1%.
	That's down from 13.3%, so over a two-point decrease in our unemployment.
	So that's good news.
	They had expected 1.38 million.
	We got 1.427 million jobs added to the American economy.
	This is, of course, the delicate balance of opening up.
	While trying to keep track of keeping as many people safe and healthy as possible, and we're seeing grim infection rates and numbers, still not horrific hospitalization or death numbers.
	Now, the fear, of course, is that that's a lagging indicator.
	I see a lot of people on social media when somebody will say, Hey, the hospitalizations and death numbers are not commensurate with the surging infection numbers, people that are testing positive.
	And I see a lot of people say, oh, just you wait, just you wait, two, three, four weeks, it's going to be Armageddon.
	Well, we'll see.
	Let's pray that's not the case.
	And if it's not the case, then, well, they were wrong again, and they have been wrong many, many times.
	Many times.
	Sometimes willfully wrong.

	You've been following this Trump-Russia Taliban story?
	Well, here's how it's supposed to go.
	The president was briefed on some plot that the Russians had to pay Taliban to kill American soldiers.
	As if you have to incentivize Taliban to kill American soldiers, but whatever.
	The president was briefed and did nothing.
	Oops, now it turns out the president wasn't briefed.
	Oh, well, okay, maybe he wasn't briefed, but he should have been briefed!
	Well, it turns out the intel was not corroborated.
	Well, okay, well, are you saying that he only gets briefed on intel that's been corroborated?
	Raise your hand if you're out there saying George W. Bush lied, people died.
	He read his daily briefings.
	He read the intel.
	Turns out the intel expected there to be a stockpile of WMD. Stockpile wasn't there.
	So, therefore, the intel is infallible?
	Therefore, every president who reads the presidential daily briefs is going to make the right kind of foreign policy decision?
	Obama read them.
	All right, everybody.

	One of the very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very few good things to happen during this lockdown is interest rates on mortgages.
	And there's been two guys, at least, who've been working through from the beginning to help you, whether you're doing a refi, new purchase, cash out refi, reverse mortgage, you just new purchase, cash out refi, reverse mortgage, you just want to take out a loan to send Sean some money, Whatever the cause might be.
	These are Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.
	They know their stuff.
	They work hard.
	When I was a kid, we had a term for guys like this that was so positive.
	My father used to say it about me sometimes.
	Actually, not often.
	Now that I think of it, I was not the object of much compliments.
	Hustler.
	That guy's a hustler.
	He worked really hard to go ahead in life.

	Ultimate Issues Hour.
	I read to you the statements of the Mayor of Chicago and the head of the Philadelphia City Council.
	Why there's so much more murder this year in our cities.
	Neither mentioned policemen.
	Neither mentioned values.
	What a wasteland.
	Wasteland.
	We live in.
	Fools run our cities.
	Fools run our universities.
	Fools runs our high schools.
	There are exceptions to all of this.
	That's why I don't use the word all.
	Mostly.
	Fools do as much damage as evil people.
	In the ancient Jewish book, the Haggadah for Passover, The prayer book of Passover.
	The opposite of bad, of the bad child, there are four children listed, is not the good child.
	It's the wise child.
	Yeah, I learned the importance of wisdom because I grew up in a religious home.
	Secular homes teach you the importance of knowledge.
	Big difference.
	Because knowledge without wisdom is worthless.
	Everything without wisdom is worthless.
	All right, New Milford, New Jersey, and the famous Bob of New Milford.
	Hi there.
	Hi.
	How are you, Dennis?
	This is a pleasure.
	Thank you.
	My father's lumberyard was burnt down in 1965 in Angola during the riots.
	And there was never a prosecution or anything.
	But that was the beginning of the wave of riot and unrest during the 60s.
	And he rebuilt it.
	And in 68, it was burned down again.
	And I'll never forget, it was reported in a newspaper.
	It was a local newspaper, rather big local newspaper.
	And they said that...
	The people were enjoying the fire, and the kids were playing amongst the hoses.
	And that's not what happened.
	It was lying news even then.
	And they said that.
	And what actually happened was there were people across the street saying, burn, baby, burn.
	And they were watching my father's Columbia go up in smoke.
	My father was in tears, and my uncle, you know, in a talent temper here, and he started swinging a two-by-four at these people.
	Everybody backed off.
	But my father had such support in the black community, and it was so frustrating because it was a situation where you love these people who work for you.
	They were going into the fire.
	The first fire, there was one of his employees, a black man.
	He went into the fire and saved two trucks so my father could continue his business.
	And that's why one of the things that really helped him pull out and be able to...
	It's so frustrating when you don't look at the world through God's view.
	God is the one who we have to see is in control of right and wrong.
	He's the one judging us.
	And there are bad blacks and bad whites and there are good blacks.
	And they're there, too.
	I mean, it's so frustrating.
	It is frustrating.
	The story you told about the black man running into the fire is very touching.
	The irony is the depiction of blacks on the left is very negative.
	Angry, destructive, bitter victimhood.
	That's right.
	As a conservative, there's a different story.
	So the subject is, what would you say?
	The reason for the increase in murders.
	We have two huge issues here.
	Truth and values.
	Neither of which exist.
	In that world, that is characterized as left.
	Not liberals.
	Liberals are weak.
	But they're not like this.
	The hot weather?
	I mean, when I read to you the list of the COVID? Well, COVID causes murder.
	I believe COVID causes suicide.
	But not COVID, the lockdown.
	Yeah, bad stuff going on here.
	you Thank you.
	But it's amazing.
	The most amazing thing of all has nothing to do with religion, that they won't acknowledge, that the weakening of the police force might be a factor in the increase in crime.
	Defund police.
	Yeah, you got to go to college to think that up.

	I am really, really, really, really happy with your response to my movie.
	Have you seen it yet?
	I would say something like, if you see it and don't like it, I'll give you your money back, but I can't do that legally.
	But I will tell you, you're not going to regret it.
	1999. You're not going to regret it.
	Listen to this one.
	This is one I got from a Democrat.
	Headline, a great wake-up call for Democrats like myself.
	And here's what this person wrote.
	Don't know whether it's male or female.
	As a lifelong Democrat, this movie called attention to the failing of my party.
	Wow.
	I heard it said before that black Americans are disillusioned.
	And fed up with being taken granted by the Democrats, only paid attention to during election cycle.
	So I felt it was my responsibility to really take these voices seriously, and I felt it was my responsibility to see your film.
	This hits to the core of it.
	I cannot accept ignorance any longer and feel any Democrat who is unwilling to see this film is intentionally failing to practice what they preach, which is that all black lives matter.
	A bitter pill to swallow, but absolutely necessary.
	Become a well-rounded, informed citizen and watch this film, end of quote.
	I am not making this up.
	You don't believe me?
	Believe me, go to IMDB yourself and look at the user review.
	Yes, my friends, Dennis Prager here.
	you I read to you the statements of the head of the Philadelphia City Council and the head of Chicago, the mayor, why there's so much more murder in black neighborhoods.
	They don't mention black neighborhoods, but that's where it's happening.
	I mean, really, it's traumatic.
	And neither mention the police.
	Neither.
	Furthering the left-wing agenda is more important than people's lives.
	And neither mentioned religious values.
	Because, yeah, they don't need them.
	That won't help.
	And neither mentioned absent fathers.
	That's correct.
	That is the way it works.
	Steven in Sacramento.
	Hello.
	Hi Dennis.
	Let me take you off speaker.
	Okay.
	I am now being removed from...
	Hi Dennis.
	I follow the murders to Chicago.
	I check them every week and I post about them on Facebook.
	And although you hear about the murders and the new records every week, one thing you never hear about is arrest or consequences.
	I haven't seen a single arrest.
	Not one.
	I haven't seen a mugshot.
	I haven't seen anybody arrested.
	Why not commit crimes if there's no consequences?
	Very good.
	Yeah, I think that's true.
	I mean, also, people are intimidated from coming forth as witnesses.
	I'm not blaming them.
	Yes, that was an important one.
	Seattle, Washington.
	Allen, hello.
	Hello, Dennis.
	Hi.
	See, apparently people obviously leftists forget in the 1990s, Barack Obama and Bill Ayers, the terrorists he didn't know, started their small schools initiative to revamp Chicago schools.
	And they literally, literally pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into the school foundations through the Annenberg Foundation, Joyce Fund, Woods Fund, with the blessing of the then Chicago Mayor Daley.
	And Ayers was, you know, the terrorists we were talking about that he knew, that they knew each other for almost a decade.
	And those kids who are now out of the school are now running the streets.
	Yeah.
	People should look up.
	It's in my book, by the way.
	I want to remind you every day, and I don't remember.
	You want to understand the left and America, please read Still the Best Hope.
	It is the best introduction to both that I know of and what is going on.
