	Hi, everybody.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	A good Friday to you.
	The next hour of the show is the happiness hour.
	It's been somewhat of a challenge in the course of the two-pronged assault on our society, one from nature and one from humans.
	But as I've always said, if you don't have a happiness hour in bad times, It's like the umbrella that doesn't open up when it starts to rain.
	Is that a fair analogy?
	I don't know if expand.
	No, not expand.
	By the way, I want you to know, guys, I have been thinking about the importance of the word neftigent because there's no parallel to it.
	And we're experiencing so much neftigence.
	You came up with a superb definition.
	What was it again?
	I need to memorize it.
	A phrase or a word-phrase or concept that sounds significant but is meaningless?
	Yeah.
	We don't have that.
	There is no word for it.
	So neftigent, it's going to be, you know, one of my contributions to the English language.
	There's a piece in the Washington Post, you know my love and involvement in classical music, about how racist classical music is.
	Now, I need you to understand, this is par for the course.
	This is neftigent.
	That was a neftigent article.
	It's a perfect example.
	Meaningless, but sound that, you know, is it pompously meaningless?
	You must understand, most of you would not know this.
	Do you know how a member of an orchestra is chosen?
	You can't imagine.
	Oh, can't be how well they play.
	No, well, that is white.
	You see, you talk like a white.
	Yes, exactly.
	They play behind a screen.
	This has been for decades.
	So you don't know if it's a male, a female, a transgender, a black, a white, an Albanian.
	You don't know.
	So how is it that classical music is racist?
	And if it wanted to be racist, How would it be?
	And isn't music and the arts as left as you can get?
	These people are racist?
	But that's what he wrote.
	That was the article.
	By the way, they never have any proof.
	They just make assertions.
	So what are they going to do now?
	Will they have affirmative action for the violin section?
	We have a certain number of blacks need to be in the viola section.
	I mean, the truth is I have never seen, I'm not saying they don't exist, but I have never noticed a black oboist.
	So will they have, I mean...
	How many black parents are rigidly enforcing The taking up of a classical music instrument on their kids.
	That is the answer, isn't it?
	Why are there more Asians than any other group in proportionally in coming up in orchestras?
	Because their parents tell them to play piano or violin from a very early age.
	It's a very cultural thing.
	Orchestras were disproportionately composed of Jews in the 1950s because Jewish parents insisted that their kids take up the violin or the cello or piano, whatever it might be.
	Now that's not true.
	Jewish parents insist that their kids take up the SAT. I can't tell you how important it is for your child to learn a musical instrument.
	But anyway, that's the lay.
	So everything is racist.
	Everything.
	The Ideological Corruption of Science by Lawrence Krauss.
	Do you know, I had Lawrence Krauss on the show for an hour.
	He wrote a book.
	He's a very prominent astronomer.
	University of Arizona, I believe, right?
	Or Arizona State.
	One of the two.
	Let's see if it comes in here.
	He is...
	Oh, it doesn't say.
	It says he's a theoretical physicist, president of the Origins Project Foundation.
	And so he's the physics of climate change, forthcoming in January.
	I can't wait for it.
	But anyway, I had him on.
	He's an atheist.
	He taught at Arizona State.
	He's no longer there?
	All right, I guess not.
	So, Lawrence Krauss was on the show on the Ultimate Issues Hour for an hour because he wrote a book, Something From Nothing.
	And he defended the idea against those of us who believe there is a creator.
	He defended the idea that something can come from nothing.
	There was a major moment.
	I wish we had it.
	Sean, there's no way to find it, is there?
	Because I asked him, how could something come from nothing?
	I mean, you don't have to be a physicist to understand the impossibility of that without something creating it.
	He said, well, it depends on your definition of nothing.
	And that was a classic moment for me in my radio history.
	And I thought, and I said, well, professor, nothing means no thing.
	I mean, you don't have to have a PhD in physics for that.
	But it was to his credit that he came on.
	Very few people...
	That differ with me, not because it's me, who differ with people who have my ideas come and debate.
	So it's not surprising to me that he would actually have a piece in the Wall Street Journal, The Ideological Corruption of Science, which goes under the heading of everything the left touches, it destroys.
	I used to say ruins, now I've gotten stronger.
	It destroys.
	The next victim could be the United States of America.
	They don't deny that they wish to destroy.
	No, back to normal, right?
	Fundamentally transform.
	Why is that not the equivalent to destroy?
	Now, you may say they'll destroy and make something better.
	It's inconceivable to me, but at least let's admit they're destroying it.
	In American laboratories and universities, the spirit of Trofim Lysenko has suddenly been awoke.
	Trofim Lysenko was Stalin's head of science.
	There was such a thing as Soviet science.
	Get it?
	Just as there is now in the United States.
	There's racist and non-racist or anti-racist science.
	In the 1980s, when I was a young professor of physics and astronomy at Yale, deconstructionism was in vogue in the English department.
	We in the science departments...
	Would scuff at the lack of objective intellectual standards in the humanities, epitomized by a movement that argued against the existence of objective truth itself, arguing that all such claims to knowledge were tainted by ideological biases due to race, sex, or economic dominance?
	It could never happen in the hard sciences, except perhaps under dictatorships, such as the Nazi condemnation of Jewish science.
	Or the Stalinist campaign against genetics led by Trofim Lysenko, in which literally thousands of mainstream geneticists were dismissed in the effort to suppress any opposition to the prevailing political view of the state.
	And now the key word.
	For so we thought.
	In recent years, and especially since the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Academic science leaders have adopted wholesale the language of dominance and oppression previously restricted to cultural studies journals to guide their disciplines,
	to censor dissenting views, to remove faculty from leadership positions if their research is claimed by opponents to support systemic oppression.
	Remember what I read to you the day before yesterday from the Black Museum, the African American Museum, where it had a big chart about what white culture is, whiteness is?
	And among the traits of whiteness was objectivity.
	We shall return.
	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	Trending now on the Eric Metaxas Show.
	Some have said that vaccines can change our DNA, don't get a vaccine, that this can be something that can be used by the government to track us. that this can be something that can be used by That sounds to me like, you know, tinfoil hat wearing luniness.
	I understand.
	Caution with regard to vaccines, but would you say that vaccines are something that people can get or do you take a stand against them for medical reasons?
	Well, I'm not supportive of all vaccines, but something like this, if you're an elderly patient or someone at high risk, yes, I believe you probably should get the vaccine if it's been proven to be a benefit, but someone young.
	I don't think it's necessary.
	I'm not an advocate overall for vaccines.
	But, you know, we need to make sure that the testing is reliable, the studies are reliable, the results are reliable.
	We're getting a lot of false information from that perspective.
	But the thing is, Eric, you're entitled to good health as a believer in Christ.
	You have to follow the rules and the natural.
	You need to exercise.
	You need to sleep well.
	You need to keep your stress down.
	You need to eat correctly.
	All of these things are going to help you and build your body up so you can go into the battle daily where this virus is all around us.
	If you do that, I believe you'll make a feminist battle victoriously.

	We're talking about Dr. Fauci.
	The president has been critical of Dr. Fauci in recent days, and of course, Dr. Fauci has been defended on CNN and MSNB, which I watch that you don't have to.
	I just want to remind you of something Dr. Fauci said as late as March 8 on 60 Minutes.
	Right now in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks.
	You're sure of it?
	Because people are listening really closely to this.
	Right now, people should not be walking.
	There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
	When you're in the middle of an outbreak...
	There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
	And now masks are mandatory.
	Wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better, and it might even block a droplet.
	But it's not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is.
	Now, later on, Dr. Fauci said, well, you know, I said that because I just didn't want people to go out and buy masks because there would be a run-on mask and the health care providers would not be able to have them.
	So I lied!
	He didn't say he lied.
	But that's what he did.
	So, this guy is a respected, probably the guy that people look to.
	And here he is admitting that he lied because he did a cost-benefit analysis and felt it was better for you to presumably expose yourself or not have the defenses that you otherwise would have against the coronavirus because, after all, we don't want you to go out and buy masks when the health care providers need them.
	So I lied because it was in your benefit for me to do so.
	But generally speaking, I don't lie.

	Mario plays I told you guys yesterday that I had a chat with my old boss, the president on Sunday.
	I always ring him on Sunday.
	It's so bad.
	But I think if there's any time I can get through to him, it's Sunday.
	So I called him before I went to the gym.
	He calls me back, left a message.
	They couldn't find him.
	He called me back soon thereafter.
	and I had to thank him for Alright, I'll return to that article I'll return to that article on the ideological corruption of science in a moment I'm Dennis Prager.
	I want to remind you that there is a website that you should be consulting constantly, flattenthefear.com.
	What is the rule now in Oregon?
	You get 30 days in prison and a fine if you don't wear a mask outdoors.
	What if you're walking alone?
	I'm not being cute.
	Do you know the answer?
	Do you have to be in proximity of human beings?
	In any event, go to flattenthefear.com.
	Job Creators Network, one of the great institutions in the country, has produced this thing.
	It's free.
	I just want you to be able to consult it.
	The more people that visit it, the more powerful it becomes.
	The better.
	You become aware of what is going on, and it's run basically by scientists.
	Flattenthefear.com Finally, in the article here on what is happening in science, at Princeton on July 4th, more than 100 faculty members, including more than 40 in the sciences and engineering, wrote an open letter to the President with proposals to, quote, disrupt the institutional hierarchies perpetuating inequity and harm.
	This included the creation of a policing committee that would, quote, oversee the investigation and discipline of racist behaviors, incidents, Research and publication on the part of faculty.
	Did you hear that?
	Substitute the word communism.
	And you get what the left has been talking about all of my life.
	McCarthyism.
	But they never had this like that under McCarthy in that short period of time.
	We've had nothing like this in all of American history, including the Salem Witch Trial.
	It's worked.
	The left corrupted the minds of a generation since World War II, and now you see the results.
	Some of us have been warning about this all our lives, but what are you going to do?
	I want you to hear this again.
	A hundred faculty members at Princeton, including more than 40 in the sciences and engineering, Wrote an open letter to the President with proposals to, quote, disrupt the institutional hierarchies perpetuating inequity and harm.
	They never quite define what that is, do they?
	It's all neftigence.
	This included the creation of a policing committee that would, quote, oversee the investigation and discipline Of racist behaviors, incidents, research, and publication on the part of faculty.
	You hear that?
	Incidents, research, and publications.
	So people will snitch.
	Or if you wrote a piece, if some professor writes a piece saying that in...
	The data do not show systemic police brutality or certainly killing of blacks.
	That's it.
	It's over for that professor.
	Get it?
	Racism is to be defined by another faculty committee and requiring every department, including math, physics, astronomy, and other sciences to establish a senior thesis prize for research that somehow, quote, Is actively anti-racist or expands our sense of how race is constructed in our society?
	Well, what does that have to do with astronomy?
	You're shaking your head, meaning you don't know?
	Actual censorship is also occurring.
	A distinguished chemist in Canada Argued in favor of merit-based science.
	You hear that?
	Merit-based science.
	That means truth-based.
	And against hiring practices that aim at equality of outcome if they result, quote, in discrimination against the most meritorious candidates.
	For this he was censured by his university provost.
	His published review article on research and education in organic synthesis was removed from the journal website, and two editors involved in accepting it were suspended.
	Canada is every bit as bad as here.
	They just don't have riots.
	But remember the police officer who called me from Toronto last week?
	He was almost in tears on how he is treated in Toronto.
	An Italian scientist at the International Laboratory CERN, it's very well known, even I know about it, CERN, home to the Large Hadron Collider, had his scheduled seminar on statistical imbalances between the sexes in physics cancelled, and his position at the laboratory revoked because he suggested that apparent inequities might not be directly due to sexism.
	A group of linguistics students initiated a public...
	Linguistics is one of the worst, by the way.
	It is a den for the foolish.
	A public petition asking that the psychologist, Steven Pinker...
	Yeah, I read that.
	You know, they're really attacking Steven Pinker, who's also been on this show.
	Any guy on the left who's been on this show, and it has nothing to do with it, but it shows that they're open.
	Is in trouble.
	Steven Pinker's in big trouble.
	Be stripped of his position as a Linguistic Society of America Fellow for such offenses as tweeting a New York Times article they disapproved of.
	I actually read it.
	I read the entire linguistics.
	Not only that, there's a part of me, I have no interest in looking at accidents when I'm driving.
	I don't have normal reactions.
	But my equivalent of, what do they call it?
	What is it called?
	The word duck is in it, isn't it?
	When you peer over to see an accident.
	Guys, rubber neck.
	I kept thinking rubber duck, but I knew it wasn't rubber duck.
	Yeah, rubber neck.
	Yeah, so mine is intellectual.
	That's why I read Pravda in college.
	So I read these things.
	I read their piece against Steven Pinker.
	The things that they attack him for having said, it's astonishing.
	Anything that deviates from the left, that's all that matters.
	Whatever science has been, this is how he ends.
	Whenever science has been corrupted by falling prey to ideology, Scientific progress suffers.
	That's not the least.
	Human beings suffer.
	1-8 Prager 776. What would your cousin who's on the left say to this article?
	The Dennis Prager Show.
	Live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.

	Presence by himself in the Oval.
	I get escorted in, and he's on the phone.
	And he doesn't stop, because he's got business to do.
	So he tells me, sit down.
	He goes, Sebastian!
	He always says, my Sebastian!
	Sit down.
	And he let me listen to his work, because he puts it on the speakerphone.
	And he had this 15-20 minute phone call about what happened yesterday in Alabama with Jeff Sessions.
	And then maybe about another dozen, dozen races.
	And he didn't have any cue cards in front of him.
	He didn't have a computer.
	He's old school like me.
	I don't know about you, but I like paper.
	I like pens.
	I want it written down.
	I use a computer if I have to.
	I've got my phone.
	I'll text.
	But if it's not written down, it's not real.
	But he didn't have any notes, any talking points prepared by staff.
	As he's talking to this individual who's in charge of certain campaign issues, Donald Trump, the president, is rattling off race after race.
	Names of the Republicans who are running, names of people who are running in primaries, names of the Democrats they're running against, the polling, the fresh polling, the deltas between the Republicans and the Democrats, what's happening in the race next week or the week thereafter, the names, the data, the dates.
	And it's all up here in his cranium.
	It's stunning.

	Hey there, folks.
	I'm talking to Jonathan Jakubowski.
	The book is Bellwether Blues, and it is about the millennial generation.
	The election that's coming up, I want to talk about that in the remaining minutes we have together.
	I've never seen such a clear choice in my life.
	When you have a Democratic Party that I would say actually has no leadership, they are being led by what we call the mob.
	They are afraid to think for themselves and afraid to put any daylight between themselves and the mob because they're afraid that they're going to get eaten alive by the mob themselves.
	And so you have Joe Biden, who's like a husk.
	Practically non-existent.
	It's the strangest thing because of social distancing and because of the COVID that we don't see him on the stump.
	It's a bizarre thing.
	What do you see ahead in this election?
	Yeah, I have optimism, especially if conservatives get out from behind the screens and engage in conversation, millennials and other people that are in our generation.
	I think it's critical for us to have these kinds of conversations because one of the things that we've seen with Democrat mayors and governors is really signs of what's to come as they oppress the freedoms of Americans through draconian measures that they've taken and through, I mean, pure hypocrisy.
	I think you're in New York, right, Eric?
	New York, New York?
	Yes, I am.
	In that city where Mayor de Blasio is willing to go and march with thousands of people, but then close down synagogues because social distancing measures are a concern.
	Millennials recognize that.
	They see that dissonance, but they have to learn from it.
	They have to hear from somebody who can talk to them about it.
	So if conservatives step out, if Republicans step out and have these conversations, I'm very optimistic about the results of the 2020 election.

	Hi, everybody.
	I want to address an issue that is raised.
	I am out almost every day at the one restaurant that has outdoor eating in my city.
	So, it's interesting.
	People more than ever before just come over to me.
	And it's a different reaction to me than I've had in all of my public life.
	The norm throughout my life has been, hey, Dennis Prager, you know, more recently.
	How about a selfie?
	You know, happy.
	Happy to see me.
	Thanks for what to do and have a great day.
	But not now.
	Now it's very common for people to just pass by and give me a thumbs up.
	It's a very different reaction to me than in the past.
	And it's deep, "God bless you, thank you, thank you, thank you." In the past, it was just light and, oh, great, love your show.
	Get a selfie.
	There is a sense of existential concern that has not existed since the Civil War.
	There was no existential concern during World War II. Nobody really feared that America would be destroyed.
	People feared that their son would die in combat.
	And there was a very realistic fear.
	But if anything, nobody living in World War II could have imagined America Truly threatened.
	Everything precious about it, threatened by Americans.
	And so people have been blindsided, as it were.
	Sucker punched.
	America's been sucker punched.
	I don't think it's a sucker punch because I've been talking about this all of my life.
	The left is a mortal enemy of America, not liberals.
	Liberals.
	They're just naive or cowardly.
	But they're not the mortal threat.
	They allow the mortal threat to gain strength.
	So there is that sense.
	Americans who love this country are worried.
	They're worried about Americans who hate this country.
	That's the way it is.
	Somebody, remember, where was it somebody was arrested on a hate crime for erasing a Black Lives Matter graffiti, is that correct?
	Or where it was painted or something?
	A hate crime.
	You don't agree with the Black Lives Matter, not movement even, but the...
	The concept everybody agrees with, the name of the group, the group, if you don't agree with the group, it's a hate crime.
	But did you see the videos of people shredding in New York, shredding the American flag and burning it?
	That's not a hate crime.
	And I'm not saying it should be.
	But it's an example.
	Of what is acceptable in America today and what is not acceptable.
	I love that flag.
	It symbolizes very many good things on this planet.
	So, what you have to do, I talked about this last week of the Happiness Hour, is you have to fight, you cannot resign, and you need kindred spirit in your life.
	That's the way to do it.
	You can't only fight when victory is very real.
	You have to fight, period.
	When good guys have won in the past, we know the ending, so we don't know what they went through, what Churchill went through.
	It didn't look like Britain would win.
	And he fought.

	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.

	German study finds no evidence.
	This is from the Telegraph in Britain.
	German study finds no evidence coronavirus spreads in schools.
	Schools do not play a major role in spreading the coronavirus according to the results of a German study released on Monday.
	The study, the largest carried out on school children and teachers in Germany, found traces of the virus in fewer than 1% of teachers and children.
	Scientists from Dresden Technical University said they believe children may act as a brake on chains of infection.
	Professor Reinhard Berner, the head of pediatric medicine at Dresden University Hospital and leader of the study, said the results suggested the virus does not spread easily in schools.
	It is rather the opposite, Professor Berner said at a press conference.
	Children act more as a brake on infection.
	Not every infection that reaches them is passed on.
	But the L.A. School Teachers Union has demanded that they will not come back until they're given $250 million and the police are defunded and a whole host of other left-wing things.
	What the left has done to the teaching profession, what it is doing to the sciences, is what it did to the arts.
	It is truly a force of pure negativity.
	Do you know, I must admit to you, I don't get it.
	I don't fully get it.
	Very few people know the left as well as I do.
	But what is the appeal?
	What is the...
	I guess there's a utopianism in the human species, which I so don't relate to.
	I'm being personal here.
	And every one of you has this.
	For example, if you don't get into gambling, if you don't find...
	Shooting craps or playing poker or slot machines.
	And I'm not condemning any of it.
	If you do it for fun, I have no issue.
	But if you don't get into gambling, you don't understand why people do.
	Right?
	It's hard to understand another's addiction if you don't have it.
	That's how I feel about this.
	How could you not see America and see an essentially good place?
	What is wrong with you?
	Do you know I got a question on my fireside chat yesterday?
	The living martyr will find this fascinating.
	For those of you who don't know, I do a fireside chat every week.
	I've now done 150 of them virtually, so that's three years.
	Every week.
	It's at PragerU.com, YouTube, etc.
	Mostly young people watch, and they ask me, I make comments, and then they ask me questions from all over the world.
	So a 20-year-old in Slovenia, where Melania Trump was born and raised, sent in a question.
	He said, why do I tell my friend, who's a communist, Who says that it's okay to kill to further communist ideals.
	Which is, that's what a communist believes, by the way.
	That's what communists did.
	That's exactly correct.
	He said, how do I convince him that killing is wrong?
	And remember how much mockery I received from my video, if God doesn't say do not murder, why is murder wrong?
	It's one of my PragerU videos.
	You don't understand, you my dear listeners, many of you don't understand the collapse that is taking place as a result of the death of the Judeo-Christian value system, which was listed by this black museum as an example of whiteness culture.
	Judeo-Christian values are a whiteness culture creation.
	Get it?
	So that if you affirm it, you are a white supremacist.
	I've said to you many times, and I need to repeat, that question just revalidated my belief, that without this foundation, that without this foundation, we're doomed.
	This religious foundation, especially of America.
	America was founded to be deeply God-centered, and God we trust is one of our three mottos.
	The Arrogance of the Humanist.
	The Arrogance of Humanism was a book I saw in college, and I thought, whoa, that is one risky title.
	The Arrogance of Humanism.
	And the author was right.
	We don't need God.
	We don't need the Bible.
	Steven Pinker wrote a book about how we're just moving in a moral direction inevitably.
	I wonder how he thinks now.
	With all of the rot, the utter moral rot, at Harvard where he is and every other university.
	The moral decline.
	In the last 50 years of every institution.
	And he wrote a book about how, oh, everything's getting better.
	Just reason alone is going to do it.
	I wonder what he thinks now.
	Interesting, huh?
	The mob is coming after him.
	The secular mob.
	The left-wing mob.
	The progressive mob of hating people.
	Who, like the Slovenian, some of them, there's no doubt in my mind, would kill for their cause.

	And New York City's crime.
	It's skyrocketing.
	Listen to what this brilliant, progressive, this smart, charismatic, bubbly, far-left, radical, progressive Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had to say over the weekend about rising crime and why it's happening.
	Get ready, because this is a doozy.
	So why is this uptick in crime happening?
	Well, let's think about it.
	Do we think this has to do with the fact that there's record unemployment in the United States right now?
	The fact that people are at a level of economic desperation that we have not seen since the Great Recession?
	Maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren't paying their rent and are scared to pay their rent.
	And so they go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money.
	So you maybe have to, they're put in a position where they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread.
	Or go hungry that night.
	Maybe it's the fact that unemployment provisions have not been given to everyone.
	Maybe it's because of the fact that some people still haven't gotten their stimulus checks yet.
	Tell me you've ever hurt a stupider person in public life in your life.
	I dare you.
	Maybe people are hungry and they need to steal a loaf of bread.
	You know, like Jean Valjean from Les Miserables.
	The Victor Hugo novel.
	That's all, because he was a good man.
	And all he did was steal a loaf of bread.
	So when you slaughter a one-year-old who's at a cookout, or you kill somebody when you're shooting people, and you just want to steal a loaf of bread.
	because maybe your stimulus check hasn't arrived yet.

	A lot of us are confused about what to make of the current situation, generally speaking, much less medically.
	But medically speaking, what do you as a medical doctor have to say about it that we might not know?
	Well, let me tell you about this virus.
	This is a new virus.
	It's a new presentation to our bodies.
	It came out of China.
	Was it man-made?
	I don't know.
	Was it from a bat?
	We don't know.
	We're not clear on that.
	But this virus is new to human beings.
	And because it is new, we have no way of defending ourselves.
	We don't have built-in immunity to fight the virus.
	That's why it's causing havoc around the world.
	That's why it's so contagious.
	And in fact, this virus is different than other viruses because it's a crone, it's a round sphere, and it has these deadly spikes on it.
	That attach to the endothelium of our lungs, our nasal passages, and it locks in like a fish hook and it sticks.
	And when that happens, it causes havoc.
	So what can we do?
	So what can we do?
	Brooklyn.
	For those of you who are not familiar, New York City is composed of boroughs, five of them.
	Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island.
	I lived, by the way, in three of the five.
	I left New York when I was 25 years old.
	The borough president of Brooklyn.
	I think Brooklyn's the most populous borough.
	Might be neck and neck with Queens now.
	I don't know.
	Anyway, he's black and he is adamant that they reinstate plain clothes police.
	Or plain clothed police.
	People are getting killed at rates that we haven't seen in decades in many of the major cities.
	How anybody can vote Democrat when so many members of its party are for defunding police?
	There is something wrong with you if you vote Democrat.
	It doesn't mean you're not a nice person personally or an honorable person personally.
	I know honorable people, but there is something wrong in the way you think, and what it is is you block out.
	Who wrote it?
	It was just reading yesterday.
	How is it that they can think the way they do?
	And the answer is they don't read us.
	We read them.
	Bruce Bauer, yes, that's right.
	That was where it was.
	Boy, he's a person.
	That I think like so much that it's one of the handful of people I could say with virtually identical views, best of my knowledge, Bruce Bauer, B-A-W-E-R. But that's what it is.
	They don't know.
	They don't want to know.
	If you would say to a nice liberal, why are you voting Democrat?
	When there are so many members of that party who advocate for the defunding of police, ah, it's just the fringe element.
	That's been the excuse my whole life.
	Just the fringe element.

	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.
	Racist.
	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.

	Some have said that vaccines can change our DNA, don't get a vaccine, that this can be something that can be used by the government to track us.
	That sounds to me like, you know, tinfoil hat wearing luniness.
	I understand caution with regard to vaccines, but would you say that vaccines are something that people can get or do you take a stand against them for medical reasons?
	Well, I'm not supportive of all vaccines, but something like this, if you're an elderly patient or someone at high risk, yes, I believe you probably should get the vaccine if it's been proven to be a benefit, but someone young.
	I don't think it's necessary.
	I'm not an advocate overall for vaccines.
	But, you know, we need to make sure that the testing is reliable, the studies are reliable, the results are reliable.
	We're getting a lot of false information from that perspective.
	But the thing is, Eric, you're entitled to good health as a believer in Christ.

	We're talking about Dr. Fauci.
	The president has been critical of Dr. Fauci in recent days, and of course, Dr. Fauci has been defended on CNN and MSNB, which I watch that you don't have to.
	I just want to remind you of something Dr. Fauci said as late as March 8 on 60 Minutes.
	Right now in the United States.
	People should not be walking around with masks.
	You're sure of it?
	Because people are listening really closely to this.
	Right now, people should not be walking.
	There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
	When you're in the middle of an outbreak...
	There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
	And now, masks are mandatory.
	Wearing a mask might make people feel...
	A little bit better.
	And it might even block a droplet.
	But it's not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is.
	Now, later on, Dr. Fauci said, Well, you know, I said that because I just did want people to go out and buy masks because there would be a run-on mask and the health care providers would not be able to have them.
	So I lied.
	He didn't say he lied.
	But that's what he did.
	So, this guy is a respected, probably the guy that people look to.
	And here he is admitting that he lied because he did a cost-benefit analysis and felt it was better for you to presumably expose yourself or not have the defenses that you otherwise would have against the coronavirus because, after all, we don't want you to go out and buy masks when the healthcare providers need them.
	So, I lied because...
	It was in your benefit for me to do so.
	But generally speaking, I don't lie.

	Ladies and gentlemen, it's the happiness hour in a very difficult time in American history.
	That is why.
	That's why.
	That's why.
	We need it!
	We really, really need it!
	These are the original lyrics.
	No, they're not.
	Join me!
	It's the happy, happy, happy, happy hour!
	Ladies and gentlemen, it's 1999. The second hour of the Friday show has been devoted to happiness.
	I have a challenging topic.
	Because not all of you will agree with me.
	And I am prepared for your disagreements and anticipate them.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	This is the Happiness Hour.
	The happy make the world better.
	The unhappy make it worse.
	That's not obvious now in America.
	Nothing would be.
	Happiness is about as important an issue as exists.
	And we have succeeded in America in producing a lot of unhappy people.
	And they ascribe, this is key, they ascribe their unhappiness to America.
	I'm unhappy because America is oppressive.
	America oppresses me.
	Freest country in the history of the world.
	Greatest unemployment statistics in the history of America, and you're oppressed.
	Right?
	That's why they have to invent examples of oppression.
	Because they're so rare.
	Well, anyway, the happy do make the world better, the unhappy make it worse, and...
	That's the story of Morning Glory.
	Today's subject...
	It's one I have mentioned on many occasions on the non-happiness.
	On hours not devoted to happiness as such.
	And during this time, I have generally tried to pick topics for the happiness hour that are relevant to the moment.
	So this is a big one.
	It is one that, as I said, I've addressed many times, but I don't know about the Happiness Hour, but I have more thoughts on it.
	And some of it will challenge you.
	And that is the notion of better safe than sorry.
	Living a life to be safe is not a happy life.
	That's the theme of today's Happiness Hour.
	The pursuit of safety and the pursuit of happiness are contradictory.
	Now, of course, there's a certain degree of pursuit of safety.
	I want you to wear seatbelts.
	I want rigorous safety checks on airplanes.
	That's clear.
	A life of safety.
	I mean, you know the example I have given, which is a really terrific example because you can relate to it.
	You know, I've taken large groups of people to Israel on a number of occasions.
	Oh, I have gotten calls, even before I ever took groups to Israel, but just mentioning it or saying, oh, I just got back from a terrific time in Israel, and...
	Someone would call and say, oh, Dennis, I would love to visit Israel, but I'm not going to go until it's safe.
	To which I have responded, then you'll never go.
	And I was right.
	They never went.
	Me time, I've gone about 20-something times.
	And the people who go have the time of their life.
	So you may well live.
	Even to a nice old age, and then die, and you will never have visited Israel.
	I'm only using that as an example.
	I've been to 130 countries, so I'm a very big believer in visiting every place.
	I've been to all 50 states.
	I've lectured in 47, but I've been to 50. The only states I've not lectured in are the two Dakotas and Montana, and I have a Montana speech coming up next month.
	So only the Dakotas are left.
	Yes, I'll be speaking in Wyoming and Montana next month.
	What a joy.
	It's the longest I've gone not speaking since I was 21 years of age.
	The only year of my life since I was 21 that I have not gone abroad.
	It's hard to believe.
	I had two speeches in Hungary.
	Scheduled this year.
	Obviously cancelled.
	Two different speeches.
	Speech in London.
	Alright.
	This notion of being safe.
	I'll give you another example.
	There's one restaurant in my small city that I live in that is open because it has a patio, an outdoor patio.
	And I eat there almost every day because I'm a big aficionado of restaurants.
	I'm one of the few husbands, fathers, that does not like eating home.
	I admit it's an idiosyncrasy.
	I fully acknowledge it.
	I haven't liked it since I was in high school.
	And I love eating out.
	Not in fancy places, just eating out.
	The freedom, the choice.
	I get so much work done in restaurants.
	Always have.
	Anyway, there are quite a number of restaurants in the city that I live.
	It's a small city.
	And I could name virtually every restaurant in the city.
	About a dozen.
	They're all closed now.
	I mean, you could have takeout.
	You could have takeout in many of them.
	Which is good.
	I want people to support their local restaurants.
	This is what you call enlightened selfishness.
	It's good to get this food.
	It's nice that you make food at home.
	People are telling me, oh, I've learned to cook.
	I think all of that is lovely.
	But there's a competing good, and that is keeping restaurants in business.
	So you should order takeout from the ones that are not open for seating.
	So those restaurants in my town are always full.
	I mean, they really do a good business.
	They're not full at 3 o'clock or 4 o'clock, which is when I tend to go, which is one of the reasons I go.
	I love an empty restaurant.
	For good reasons, not for bad reasons.
	In other words, I don't like empty restaurants because of viruses.
	Anyway, amazingly, there's only one open restaurant in my town.
	And that patio section is almost never full.
	I don't know, maybe 20 people can fit there.
	Maybe 20. So in the entire city in which I live, 20 people are eating out.
	And guess what?
	About two-thirds of them are 65 and over.
	The people who are most likely to drop dead from this illness.
	Now, why would that be?
	Is that an interesting question?
	Why would the majority of people every day that I go there?
	That's what I see.
	Sometimes there are young people there.
	Why is that?
	Shouldn't they be the most afraid of dying of this disease?
	They turn out to be the least.
	The people pushing the most for openness tended to be older people, the people most likely to be hurt.
	You know how many people under 50 die of this?
	Fewer than from the flu.
	If you're under 50, you're more likely to die from the flu than from COVID-19.
	And if you're a kid, you're more likely to be killed in a car accident.
	So, I realize, why are so few people eating out?
	Because they're scared.
	They're playing it safe.
	So you see, playing it safe has become Some call it safetyism.
	It's a religion unto itself.
	But I'm not even talking about it as a religion.
	I'm talking about it as a suppressor of the pursuit of happiness.
	You're staying home for five months?
	Rather than when things did open or things are opening in your...
	Place of residence, what state you're in, what city you're in.

	Congressman, I want to ask you about something I've discussed with a few people this morning.
	John Durham, the United States Attorney, has been tasked with investigating the investigators.
	Prosecutors don't typically turn in a report.
	They either indict or don't indict.
	Both Byron York and Tom Cotton argued for a report in this instance.
	If there are any indictments, I expect there will be some indictments.
	What is your opinion on this?
	I'm of the opinion that there will be indictments.
	That's what I feel.
	And I think there's two reasons for this.
	There's been too much going into it.
	Durham is an excellent prosecutor, and also the Attorney General has given him a lot of latitude and also help in this investigation, opening up doors in the intelligence community and others.
	What we don't need is another mauler.
	What we don't need is another, you know, this giant report that says, well, we came close.
	I believe there's going to be indictments at some point in this process, and I believe that hopefully they will come.
	You see, I do not want to establish a precedent of prosecutors giving us their opinion of when, you know, hand grades and horseshoe close counts.
	I don't like close.
	I think that is dangerous as can be.
	What we're getting into now with the Comeys of the world and the others, they want to go out and instead of being able to make their case, they just want to plant seeds about.
	This is the corruption of the left.
	They can't make their case.
	They can't sell what they're...
	To the American people what they've got in their pocket that they want to sell to them, so they just plant seeds about it.

	Nosafespaces.com All right, my friends.
	Happiness Hour about a level of pursuit of safety that inhibits your joy of life.
	And I'm seeing it now with the people who stay home who are healthy.
	And fear even going out and eating at the patio of the one open restaurant in my town.
	Every restaurant is closed.
	How many people live in my city?
	My wife will know.
	I'll get an IM shortly.
	Out of all the tens of thousands of people who live in my city, about 20. Are eating out.
	It's astonishing.
	I have taken risks.
	I've never, I don't think I've ever taken a foolish risk.
	But I've taken risks my whole life and it's one of the reasons I've led such a full life.
	Again, it's the happiness hour and I want to stress that fact.
	There is a conflict between A certain level of safety and happiness.
	Like the travel to Israel.
	That's just the way it is.
	So you will miss out on much of life if safety is your number one concern.
	Safety should be the number one concern of people running an airline.
	That's a separate issue.
	Alright, let me take your calls here.
	And John in Chatsworth, California.
	Hello, John of Chatsworth.
	Hello, Mr. Dennis.
	I am really thankful for this hour.
	You mentioned what I believe is essential, which is the need to take risks, and also the need to engage in a little absurdity every now and then.
	I think it not only keeps you happy, but makes you a better individual as well.
	Probably does.
	So is that the point you wanted to make?
	That was the biggest point.
	Yes, good.
	No, no, you are absolutely right.
	We're on board with one another.
	By the way, is that possible?
	Only 20,000 people live in my town?
	Yeah, 20,000.
	Okay, so one out of the thousand has taken the risk of eating out on the patio at any given time.
	$20,000.
	All right, there we go.
	Yes, indeed.
	I appreciate that.
	And let's go.
	Heidi in St. Paul, Minnesota.
	Hey, before you say anything, Heidi, what is the mood in the Twin Cities, or is St. Paul a different world?
	Oh, no.
	St. Paul is...
	It's not maybe quite as bad as Minneapolis, perhaps, but we definitely are twin cities for a reason.
	So, yeah, yeah.
	So we feel a bit like we're on an island of, you know, my husband and I. You know, some friends feel like that right now.
	My district where I live, Adam Schiff is the Congressman, so you have nothing worse than I do.
	Yes.
	Okay, so go ahead.
	What's your take on the safety thing?
	Yes.
	So just this week, my husband and I have been discussing safety versus happiness in terms of my 16-year-old daughter who wants to be playing soccer.
	And it's not something that I've always been more cautious, especially in terms of head injuries and that.
	And my son, he played soccer.
	All through high school, and he only got hit in the head one time, and it was pretty minor.
	But now, just this week, my daughter got hit in the head and definitely has a concussion.
	Hit in the head with another head, a knee, or a ball?
	A ball, a soccer ball, yes.
	And so, you know, I know that I can't protect her from everything and that she could be injured in another way, but I'm really having difficulty finding that balance.
	Right.
	Well, there's no scientific formula.
	There isn't, and I can't give you one.
	I wish I could.
	I totally get it if a parent does not want their kid to play a regular football.
	The concussion issue is a very real one, and I understand it.
	It breaks my heart because I want kids to enjoy sports.
	So, I don't have an answer on that.
	On soccer, I would take the risk.
	I think, you know, concussion runs the gamut from minor to major, as you know better than I.
	So I would allow my daughter to play soccer.
	So, you know, it's...
	Look, I...
	My son went to study in Israel after high school...
	He went for almost a year, and there was a lot of terror at the time.
	And I just said, I said to him, look, there are risks one takes for what one believes in.
	We support Israel, and I'm not going to abandon it because of terror.
	And, you know, he was, what was he, 2018, 18, whatever it was.
	And he agreed, and he went.
	Obama tore this country down.
	No one stood up to him.
	Nobody.
	Because he was black.
	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?
	I didn't call you a nigger.
	Oh, okay, that's a big difference.
	Uncle Tom.
	And Uncle Tom is somebody who has sold out by embracing the white man.

	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.
	Racist.
	Racial.
	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.
	Racial.
	Racial.
	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.

	Thank you.
	I'm sorry.
	Some have said that vaccines can change our DNA, don't get a vaccine, that this can be something that can be used by the government to track us.
	That sounds to me like, you know, tinfoil hat wearing luniness.
	I understand caution with regard to vaccines, but would you say that vaccines are something that people can get or do you take a stand against them for medical reasons?
	Well, I'm not supportive of all vaccines, but something like this, if you're an elderly patient or someone at high risk, yes, I believe you probably should get the vaccine if it's been proven to be a benefit, but someone young.
	I don't think it's necessary.
	I'm not an advocate overall for vaccines.
	But, you know, we need to make sure that the testing is reliable, the studies are reliable, the results are reliable.
	We're getting a lot of false information from that perspective.
	But the thing is, Eric, you're entitled to good health as a believer in Christ.
	You have to follow the rules and the natural.
	You need to exercise.
	You need to sleep well.
	You need to keep your stress down.
	You need to eat correctly.
	All of these things are going to help you and build your body up so you can go into the battle daily where this virus is all around us.
	And if you do that, I believe you'll make it through this battle victoriously.

	The pursuit of safety and the pursuit of happiness are often...
	Contradictory pursuits.
	That's the theme.
	And I see it before my known eyes right now with the amount of fear people have of COVID. Part of the reason is you actually watch the news.
	Big mistake.
	I stopped watching news in high school.
	I started reading the news.
	Very big difference.
	Cases at the highest level ever.
	I only look at deaths.
	Also, I believe, and this is very frustrating, that a lot of these people would not have died if they were given hydroxychloroquine and zinc the first days, within the first five days of the onset of their disease.
	Anyway, people are petrified.
	40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 200 years ago.
	But even before this, I warned people that the pursuit of safety and the pursuit of happiness might be mutually contradictory.
	The way I put it is, I want it said, when I leave this world, Dennis Prager led a full life, not Dennis Prager led a safe life.
	Leaving a full life and leaving a safe life are not the same thing.
	Not for unnecessary risks.
	There are countries I don't visit.
	I want to get to every country in this world before I leave it.
	I'm at 130. But there are places I won't visit for safety reasons.
	So I understand that.
	But I never...
	If people had asked, is it safe?
	We would never have fought World War I or World War II. People in the North wouldn't have fought.
	What do I care?
	Let the South leave.
	It's not safe to fight a war.
	Yes, indeed.
	Let's go to your calls.
	Penny in Greenwood, South Carolina.
	The famous Penny of Greenwood.
	Hi.
	Hey, Dennis.
	Hooray, hooray.
	I'm so happy to be speaking with you.
	That's nice.
	I'm glad you are.
	That especially should be true on the Happiness Hour.
	That's a fact.
	Yes.
	Well, I tell you, what I told your screener was, it's pretty simple, but it is, my sister and I are, we love our country, and we are, we can find ourselves getting kind of down about what's going on in disrespect for our country and our president, whatever.
	We decided, and someone said, stay safe, stay safe.
	Well, I, you know, we say stay brave.
	That's what we say in our family.
	We say it to each other.
	I'm joining your family.
	My family is, right now, my sister and I are.
	No, no, no, I'm saying, I said, I'm joining your family.
	Oh, please do join our family.
	Yes, I had that feeling.
	I had the feeling.
	Exactly.
	I love that.
	I love that.
	Stay brave.
	I think that's fantastic.
	Well, I was unsure about it.
	I put it up on the sign because I'm not a real, I'm an outspoken person for the most part.
	And that's the thing, too, I wanted to speak with you briefly about is that I found myself being almost afraid to say I'm a conservative Republican.
	And I said, you know, no, absolutely not.
	And so I made a conscious decision that I mean, I'll wear my Trump t-shirt, and I find that when I start a conversation with somebody from 60 away nowadays, most people, at least where I'm from, are like-minded.
	But we seem to say it in hushed voices a little bit.
	That's correct.
	People whisper to me in the street I'm conservative.
	People in the airports before the...
	I heard you saying that.
	That's right.
	Let's not be fence-sitters.
	That's right.
	I can give you a big old hug.
	I would love it.
	I would love it.
	I intend to get it from you.
	When am I scheduled to go to Greenwood, Ellen?
	Let's go to Greenwood.
	I'm joining Penny's family.
	I think they needed you in the family.
	I'll bet you they don't have one.
	What do you say, Sean?
	Am I right?
	Can you use the phrase, stay brave?
	What does that mean?
	Oh, are you offending Native Americans?
	The Cleveland Indians are thinking of renaming.
	Do you know that the Native Americans overwhelmingly did not oppose Redskins?
	This is all from the left.

	We're talking about Dr. Fauci.
	The president has been critical of Dr. Fauci in recent days, and of course, Dr. Fauci has been defended on CNN and MSNB, which I watched so you don't have to.
	I just want to remind you of something Dr. Fauci said as late as March 8 on 60 Minutes.
	Right now in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks.
	You're sure of it?
	Because people are listening really closely to this.
	Right now, people should not be worried.
	There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
	When you're in the middle of an outbreak...
	There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
	And now masks are mandatory.
	Wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better, and it might even block a droplet.
	But it's not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is.
	Now, later on, Dr. Fauci said, well, you know, I said that because I just didn't want people to go out and buy masks because they would be a run-on mask and the health care providers would not be able to have them.
	So I lied!
	He didn't say he lied.
	But that's what he did.
	So, this guy is a respected, probably the guy that people look to.
	And here he is admitting that he lied because he did a cost-benefit analysis and felt it was better for you to presumably expose yourself or not have the defenses that you otherwise would have against the coronavirus because, after all, we don't want you to go out and buy masks when the health care providers need them.
	So I lied because it was in your benefit for me to do so.
	But generally speaking, I don't lie.

	It's the happiness hour, and how appropriate a topic, obviously, the preoccupation with safety is an inhibitor of happiness.
	That's my theory.
	I know it.
	I said this before the crisis, as you know.
	But now it's very good for me to tell you.
	I have a doctor calling in from San Diego, California.
	Neil, hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Hi.
	Dennis, I'm a family physician here in San Diego for the last 36 years.
	And I just wanted to make the point that our immune system is the most powerful thing that really protects us from all these infections and viruses and bacteria and everything that's around us.
	And it is a very well-known fact for many years that stress has a negative effect on our immune system.
	And there's no question that people that are trying to avoid risk of any kind are going to be more stressed, and they're actually going to be harming their immune system rather than helping it.
	So it's just ironic that the people that are trying to do most to protect themselves are actually doing things that are harmful to themselves.
	I just wanted to make that point from a medical perspective.
	Let me just say that I would like to hug you and the woman in South Carolina.
	Thank you.
	That is how much I enjoyed this call.
	Do you know when I was in high school, we had a class called Health Ed?
	I don't know if they do it.
	It wasn't about condom placement.
	It was actually about health.
	And there was a book, I think there was a book, that truly shaped my...
	I can't say this about many things, but it shaped my life.
	And I think it was called Stress Kills.
	And I'm just echoing what you said, and I want you to know what a big role that plays in my life.
	So what you, that's right, you have a stronger immune system if you're enjoying life.
	Absolutely.
	You're good.
	So listen, I want to talk to you about this a little, you know, by the way, you don't know, folks, there is a built-in disadvantage to being a doctor.
	There may be many, but one is, I know this because my brother's a doctor, When I am with him at, let's say, a family wedding or some other thing.
	Yeah, well, I guess it would be any public event.
	So we're sitting at the table and people just walk over to him and ask him medical questions.
	I mean, obviously people walk over to me because, you know, I'm a public figure.
	But that's easier to handle.
	Let's get a selfie.
	Or sign my book.
	It's a lot easier.
	Then, Doctor, I'm sorry to trouble you, but just for a moment, I wanted to tell you.
	Oh, and I'm sitting there, oh my God, how's he going to enjoy this meal?
	So, anyway, what you just heard is so important.
	I really do believe that my happiness and willingness to live life fully has contributed to my health.
	That was a good one.
	Thank you, sir.
	Thank you.
	Appreciate it.
	All right, Amy in Santa Ana, California.
	Hello, Amy.
	Hi, Dennis.
	How are you?
	I'm well, thank you.
	This is such an honor to speak with you.
	I appreciate that.
	So, I have a four-year-old daughter, and during this time when everything shut down, it was incredibly difficult to...
	Explain to such a young child why basically the whole world shut down, not going to school, not going to zoos, and most importantly, she loves going to restaurants.
	Oh, really?
	That's a four-year-old kindred spirit to me.
	Yes, yes.
	She likes the finer things in life.
	That's a great line.
	Okay, let's hope, this is going to sound sexist and I don't care.
	Let's hope she marries a rich guy.
	You know, I hope she does too.
	You know, there's nothing wrong with that.
	Right, exactly.
	But in all seriousness, you know, when restaurants started to reopen for a nanosecond, we went back to going out and then they re-shut down.
	And trying to explain this to her that some of her favorite places were closed was just heartbreaking.
	Yes, I can imagine.
	Yeah, and, you know, it was so great because, you know, we do have a lot of outdoor dining options here in Southern California.
	And we've been going there, and we just, we choose just not to live in fear.
	We want to live a joyful life as much as possible.
	Amongst the chaos.
	Soon as I hear, I want to lead a joyful life and I'm willing to take some risks, I just assume, and I may be wrong, that you would be on the conservative side of the political spectrum.
	That would be incredibly accurate.
	And happy.
	That's another trait that you find as you move right of center.
	There's another one I want to hug.
	I'm telling you, I want to hug the four-year-old.
	She likes to find her things in life.
	That is an interesting question.
	How do you explain to a four-year-old what's happening?
	I had the thought of that.
	See, I have...
	Well, that's interesting because I have a four-year-old grandchild.
	I'm going to ask my son what he...
	How does he explain it to him?
	But, of course, he doesn't feel it.
	They're right now on this two-week road trip through Utah and Colorado and...
	And environs.
	Where was he?
	I don't remember.
	Oh, he was in Louisiana when he called me.
	He was in Louisiana.
	The kid's having the time of his life.
	He probably thinks it's one of the great blessings of his life.
	This era in American history.
	But it is an interesting...
	Well, see, here's the thing.
	If the parent radiates fear, the kid will radiate fear.
	Fear.
	It's contagious.

	Hey there, folks.
	I'm talking to Jonathan Jakubowski.
	The book is Bellwether Blues, and it is about the millennial generation.
	The election that's coming up, I want to talk about that in the remaining minutes we have together.
	I've never seen such a clear choice in my life.
	When you have a Democratic Party that I would say actually has no leadership, they are being led by what we call the mob.
	They are afraid to think for themselves and afraid to put any daylight between themselves and the mob because they're afraid.
	That they're going to get eaten alive by the mob themselves.
	And so you have Joe Biden, who's like a husk, practically non-existent.
	It's the strangest thing because of social distancing and because of the COVID that we don't see him on the stump.
	We don't see him.
	It's a bizarre thing.
	What do you see ahead in this election?
	Yeah, I have optimism, especially if conservatives get out from behind the screens and engage in conversation, millennials and other people that are in our generation.
	I think it's critical for us to have these kinds of conversations because one of the things that we've seen with Democrat mayors and governors is really signs of what's to come as they oppress the freedoms of Americans through draconian measures that they've taken and through pure hypocrisy.
	I think you're in New York, right, Eric?
	In New York, New York?
	Yes, I am.
	In that city where Mayor de Blasio is willing to go and march with thousands of people, but then close down synagogues because social distancing measures are a concern.
	Millennials recognize that.
	They see that dissonance, but they have to learn from it.
	They have to hear from somebody who can talk to them about it.
	So if conservatives step out, if Republicans step out and have these conversations, I'm very optimistic about the results of the 2020 election.

	Christine in Reading, Pennsylvania, hello.
	Hello, how are you?
	Really cool to talk to you.
	Thank you.
	I heard you talking earlier about the 20 people, the older people that are in restaurants eating out, the brave ones, and you know, it shows the generation difference that we have now.
	I mean, these people, you know...
	Back in their day, they're 18, fighting a world war against Hitler and everything like that.
	They're out at 18, and now our children live in the basement until they're 30, and they're afraid of their own shadow and someone wearing a Trump hat.
	It's like they're living life, and everyone else is afraid to do anything.
	It's crazy what we see now.
	And to further what that doctor said, everyone putting antibacterial all over their hands and everything they have, the counters, it actually decreases your immune system doing that also.

	You know, so it's just, what we're doing is just absolutely crazy.
	And if people were not so chicken and got off, you know, they need to look at more things in CBS, and then we see, broaden your horizon, look at different things, and listen to other doctors besides.
	Doctor.
	So tell me, are any of the restaurants in Redding or Wyoming open?
	Yeah, actually they are.
	And my husband and I have been going out, and again, I don't treat my children like babies, and they're not afraid to go out.
	Right.
	They have open seating, and they have indoor seating.
	You just have to keep your six-foot distance and that kind of thing.
	You wear a mask.
	What's your favorite restaurant?
	What's that?
	What's the name of your favorite restaurant?
	Well, we like the Pike Cafe, actually, in Reading.
	It's famous for their wings.
	The what cafe?
	The Pike Cafe.
	P-I-K-E? P-I-K-E, correct.
	Thank you.
	I know Reading pretty well, as it happens.

	Joe Biden, good to see you, sir.
	And look, Arizona is very much in play in 2020. So we appreciate you taking some time to talk to the people of our state.
	Oh, you're an important city.
	You guys are going through hell right now, aren't you?
	Excuse me?
	I wasn't born here, but I do know Arizona's a state and not a city.
	Has the GOP used that yet for their campaign ads?
	That's a keeper.
	That is Joe Biden, the man who would be president, who's been in politics for 49 years, who thinks Arizona...
	It's a city.
	My, oh, my, oh, my.
	Let's get going with our first guest of the day.
	He is the man who wrote the book, Trumponomics Advisor to Candidate Trump and to President Trump.
	It's been far too long, my friend.
	He is the Heritage Foundation's Steve Moore.
	I've got to say your name first.
	Welcome, Steve.
	Good to be with you.
	And by the way, Sebastian, I know the answer to your question.
	Arizona is a state.
	I think you're right.
	By golly, I think he's got it.
	I think he's got it.
	I had geography when I was in the fifth grade.
	I guess they don't teach that anymore.
	I remember when my kids, when we moved here 11 years ago, having to, you know, name, they were given the map of America with the states and no names.
	And they had to learn them.
	I guess Biden missed that class.
	They missed it.
	My parents made me learn the state capitals.
	My kids know the state capitals.
	I was so impressed when my kids knew the state capitals.
	They weren't born here.
	Well, one of them was.
	But wow.

	So he tells me, sit down.
	He goes, Sebastian!
	He always says, my Sebastian, sit down.
	And he let me listen to his work, because he puts it on the speakerphone.
	And he had this 15-20 minute phone call about what happened yesterday in Alabama with Jeff Sessions, and then maybe about another dozen, dozen races.
	And he didn't have any cue cards in front of him.
	He didn't have a computer.
	He's old school like me.

	Hey there, folks.
	I'm talking to Jonathan Jakubowski.
	The book is Bellwether Blues, and it is about the millennial generation.
	The election that's coming up, I want to talk about that in the remaining minutes we have together.
	I've never seen such a clear choice in my life.
	When you have a Democratic Party that I would say actually has no leadership, they are being led by what we call the mob.
	They are afraid to think for themselves and afraid to put any daylight between themselves and the mob because they're afraid that they're going to get eaten alive by the mob themselves.
	And so you have Joe Biden, who's like a husk.
	Practically non-existent.
	It's the strangest thing because of social distancing and because of the COVID that we don't see him on the stump.
	It's a bizarre thing.
	What do you see ahead in this election?
	Yeah, I have optimism, especially if conservatives get out from behind the screens and engage in conversation, millennials and other people that are in our generation.
	I think it's critical for us to have these kinds of conversations because one of the things that we've seen with Democrat mayors and governors is really signs of what's to come as they oppress the freedoms of Americans through draconian measures that they've taken and through pure hypocrisy.
	I think you're in New York, right, Eric?

	I don't fool myself.
	I don't wear rose-colored glasses, and I don't wear tinted glasses, although right now I am wearing sunglasses because I forgot to take them off.
	No, I noticed it as soon as I left the car.
	No, not as soon as I left the car, I would have gone back to the car.

	Now, it's an interesting question.
	Which is more insulting?
	A bad truth about you or a bad lie about you?
	Anyway, they were debating back there, Christian and Sean, two anti-Semites.
	They were debating whether I knew that I had sunglasses on the whole bloody show.
	You know, that is not an insult to me.
	That is an insult to the two of you.

	Jacques in Benicia, California.
	Thank you for calling.
	Benicia, thank you for calling.
	Hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Hi.
	Good to talk to you again.
	When was the last time?
	The last time?
	Oh, probably several months ago.
	I don't remember exactly.
	I was just curious.
	Could be again five years ago.
	Could be last week.
	I was just curious.
	Go ahead.
	All right.
	Well, actually, I wanted to call in.
	I tried calling in, I think, a couple of weeks ago when it was closer to 4th of July.
	But I was just dismayed on Facebook a couple of black women from our church.
	Well, one black woman from our church posted how she can't.
	As a black woman, celebrate the 4th of July.
	And I responded to her saying, you know, it was because of slavery.
	She posted Frederick Douglass' speech about what to the slave is the 4th of July.
	And I posted back very respectfully saying, you know, in spite of slavery, and I know it took a long time for blacks to get equal rights, it still should be a holiday that...
	All people should celebrate because it represents our independence from Britain and that Britain didn't eliminate slavery until 1833. And, you know, wouldn't you agree that blacks would have been better off in the U.S. and under Great Britain?
	But she responded with a whole thing about how much her father suffered under segregation, even after moving from the South to the West.
	Someone else from my church responded saying that...
	She couldn't celebrate 4th of July either, and a couple of other people that I didn't know with an obvious response to me.
	So I would ask a different question, and I'm not saying in any way that you're wrong.
	I would ask her, so tell me, where in the world is it better for a black to live than America?
	Yeah, that's a good point, yeah.
	No, no, that's to me the only point.
	If you can't celebrate your country's founding, Then it is so rotten, that's what she's saying, that there must be someplace better.
	There are 200 countries, many of them are black.
	What's better for her as a black human being to live in than the United States of America?
	You should tell her, by the way, we need to resurrect this.
	I wonder if the man would come on the show.
	Did I ever have Keith Richburg on?
	I did have him on.
	When did the book come out?
	Out of America.
	I need to reread it.
	It's a very important work.
	I'm going to do that.
	It's going to be my next book.
	Keith Richburg is black.
	Washington Post reporter.
	He was the chief of the African Bureau.
	He was stationed in Nairobi.
	This must be now what?
	When do you think it came out?
	15 years ago?
	At least, yeah.
	Out of America, Keith Richburg.
	And the thesis of his book is how lucky he is.
	That his ancestors suffered is a given, but he's so lucky that their suffering enabled him to grow up in America and not Africa.
	2009?
	No, that's a reprint.
	Yeah, no, it was definitely before that.
	So, where is it better?
	I'm sorry?
	Yeah, 1997. That makes more sense.
	23 years ago.
	She can't celebrate 1776. Why?
	Because it's so rotten for her?
	This is, by the way, this is sort of one of my five arguments in my column this week.
	It was about that five arguments that America is not a racist country.
	And one of them is the preoccupation with the past.
	If it's so rotten, just tell me why it's rotten now.
	You can't celebrate the founding of the country that giving you more opportunity than any other country on the face of the earth would?
	You are an ingrate.
	That's what I would tell her.
	You're an ingrate.
	I say this to whites who are on the left.
	I say it to Jews on the left.
	I'm a Jew.
	I tell fellow Jews who are on the left, you're ingrates.
	It's the greatest country Jews have ever lived in outside of the Jewish state itself.
	I hate ingratitude.
	I don't think Frederick Douglass would agree with her, by the way, today.
	We have a video on Frederick Douglass, don't we?
	Yes, right.
	I'll pray you.
	He's a great man.
	In gratitude, it's the dominant emotion and the dominant attitude of our time.
	All right.
	Let's go to Iowa.
	Bettendorf, Iowa, to be precise.
	And Jane.
	Hello, Jane.
	Hi.
	I'm calling because I'm very excited about BioLetics, which is a reading program that a friend of mine in Iowa has implemented at the school in Iowa and has implemented in Wisconsin.
	She has been developing the program for years.
	It's been being used for about 10 years.
	And she has it all updated and online and ready for use.
	And you have talked about wanting to help your audience with homeschooling yesterday when you were speaking specifically about California and the teachers' union.
	And this is a very...
	Fun way to learn.
	What is it called?
	Yes, what is it called?
	It's called voweletics.
	No, spell it because it's not clear to me.
	Voweletics.
	Okay, it's good to know.
	What is totally different?
	Okay, so we...
	We are big advocates here of homeschooling.
	Huge.
	I don't think you have a choice now, given that most schools are rotten.
	Most schools are laboratories to produce America-hating, Judeo-Christian-hating fools.
	Okay?
	It's just a fact.
	And lies.
	They're taught lies, like America was founded in 1619, the gargantuan line perpetrated by the New York Times.
	I'm sorry to tell you this because it could be a big pain in the beginning, but the risks you take with the values and health of your child, moral health, are too great.

	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.
	Racial.
	Racial.
	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.

	Some have said that vaccines can change our DNA, don't get a vaccine, that this can be something that can be used by the government to track us.
	That sounds to me like, you know, tinfoil hat wearing luniness.
	I understand caution with regard to vaccines.
	Would you say that vaccines are something that people can get or do you take a stand against them for medical reasons?
	Well, I'm not supportive of all vaccines, but something like this, if you're an elderly patient or someone at high risk, yes, I believe you probably should get the vaccine if it's been proven to be a benefit.
	But someone young, I don't think it's necessary.
	I'm not an advocate overall for vaccines.
	But, you know, we need to make sure that the testing is reliable, the studies are reliable, the results are reliable.
	We're getting a lot of false information from that perspective.
	But the thing is, Eric, you're entitled to good health as a believer in Christ.
	You have to follow the rules and the natural.
	You need to exercise.
	You need to sleep well.
	You need to keep your stress down.
	You need to eat correctly.

	A quick reminder about a great service, and that is Pure Talk.
	Go up pound 250 on your phone, pound 250, and then say Dennis Prager.
	Pure Talk USA, $20 a month, unlimited text, unlimited talk, 2 gigabyte of data.
	That's pretty good.
	I was so suspicious, I guess is the word, that I actually got a phone and signed up.
	It's terrific.
	You know, by the way, you don't need a new phone or a new number.
	Pound 250, Dennis Prager, Pure Talk USA. All right.
	Got a lot of interesting calls here.
	Yep.
	All right.
	And let's go to Eric in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
	Hi.
	Dennis.
	Yes, indeed.
	I can't believe I'm actually talking to you.
	I'm so glad my son had a pediatrician appointment.
	You're so glad that your son what?
	He had a pediatrician appointment.
	My doctor's appointment.
	I was able to leave work early.
	I can't call you.
	I'm going to try to make this quick because I know my service might be a little shoddy, but when I first started listening to you a couple years ago, I was an atheist from listening to you.
	But both of your Bible commentaries, I've since become agnostic.
	Wow, that's a big deal.
	It is, and I thank you for that.
	I would like to attend church, but I have no idea where to go from here.
	My family wasn't religious.
	It was just, for the most part, my father and I growing up.
	It's something I really would like my family and I could do, but between all the different religions, the denominations of those religions, what would you suggest as the next step?
	What I tell people if they are exploring a religion is to first try the one they were raised with.
	So if you were raised Catholic, what were you raised?
	We didn't attend church.
	Alright, so fine.
	Then it doesn't apply to you.
	That's fine.
	So, look, you have a wonderful opportunity now as soon as the churches reopen.
	You have, well, a lot have online.
	Yes, that's true.
	I don't know.
	If you look, if you can explore online, that's fine.
	I would go to 52 different churches next year on 52 Sundays or 45 and take seven weeks off.
	But that's a wonderful time in your life to explore.
	And I would explore it by my level of intellectual and emotional comfort.
	Both.
	You need both.
	Obviously, the tone is set in large measure by the pastor or priest.
	And if you're not a leftist, you already can rule out half the churches.
	So that'll make it easier for you.
	But yeah, you just go church hopping, and then you find one.
	I have never heard the term church hopping before, but that does make sense.
	Yeah, no one has.
	And I got it, actually, from Judaism.
	They go shul hopping.
	Shul is the...
	No, is it shopping?
	Not shul shopping?
	Oh, then I got that wrong.
	No wonder nobody ever heard it.
	I made it up.
	It's very funny.
	Yes, shul shopping.
	That's it.
	Sorry, not hopping.
	Church shopping.
	That's what you should do.
	That's exactly right.
	And ultimately, the best thing, the thing that turns me on the most is study.
	That's why I've written this Bible commentary.
	I will admit, this is going to sound, I'm taking a risk here because it might sound awful.
	But it's so true, I have to say it.
	I don't understand why, if you do appreciate me and what I stand for, you wouldn't read my Bible commentary.
	It's a puzzle to me.
	I can't believe it's the money, so I don't quite understand.
	This is the most important thing I've ever written, and it's a very important thing, period.
	It's called the Rational Bible.
	It's meant to change your life.
	I have two volumes out.
	I'm working on the third volume of the five volumes this year, and I am on schedule, amazingly, because I'm a year late.
	Can you be on schedule if you're a year late?
	I'm on schedule, given that I'm a year late.
	Anyway, it's called the Rational Bible.
	But I believe that people should...
	Shop for a community.
	Just like you should date for friends, you should sort of date for a community.
	And if he can find a study group of like-minded men or couples, that's another good thing to do.
	I think the ultimate non-conformist thing you could do today is take religion seriously.
	Anchorage, Alaska, and Rory.
	Hello, Rory.
	Yeah, Dennis.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	I'm a huge fan.
	Thank you.
	I've got a 14 and a 10-year-old that watch all your PragerU videos, and I actually text them to my niece in Canada every week, and then I did for a long time every day.
	Thank you.
	That's great.
	That's great.
	But just to start off, I got a poll a few years ago when they called me, and she went through every question.
	She got to a question about...
	Something on the lines of, has Trump done a good job in office?
	And then she kind of said, have you done a good job in office?
	And then she said, strongly disagree, disagree, and so forth.
	And I said, strongly agree.
	And she kind of paused.
	And kind of started and said...
	The pollster!
	And she said, she kind of paused, and she goes, oh, I think I read that wrong.
	Let me go back.
	Oh, is that funny.
	And she repeats the same question, word for word.
	And once again, I said, you know, and I said strongly agree, Dan.
	And, you know, I come from a background of, you know, I was retired military.
	My dad's retired military.
	One grandfather was a former Hells Angel.
	The other one was a cowboy.
	We don't really screw around.
	You know, we kind of tell it how it is.
	And I realized in that poll, though, not everybody, I think, is going to have that.
	I don't know if it's Will.
	I don't know what you would call it to just say strongly agree.
	Well, you know what it proves, though, among other things?
	And that is how few people who do support the president will admit it to a pollster.
	If she was that shocked, that's all it could mean.
	That's why I don't know if the polls are accurate at all.
	I just, I simply don't know.
	I'm not saying they're not.

	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.

	Some have said that vaccines can change our DNA, don't get a vaccine, that this can be something that can be used by the government to track us.
	That sounds to me like tinfoil hat wearing luniness.
	I understand caution with regard to vaccines.
	Would you say that vaccines are something that people can get or do you take a stand against them for medical reasons?
	Well, I'm not supportive of all vaccines, but something like this, if you're an elderly patient or someone at high risk, yes, I believe you probably should get the vaccine if it's been proven to be a benefit.
	But someone young, I don't think it's necessary.
	I'm not an advocate overall for vaccines.
	But, you know, we need to make sure that the testing is reliable, the studies are reliable, the results are reliable.
	We're getting a lot of false information from that perspective.
	But the thing is, Eric, you're entitled to good health as a believer in Christ.
	You have to follow the rules and the natural.
	You need to exercise.
	You need to sleep well.
	You need to keep your stress down.
	You need to eat correctly.
	All of these things are going to help you.

	Paul Dennis Prager here.
	The caller mentioned the black woman in his church who wouldn't celebrate July 4th.
	That's truly distressing.
	It's unimpressive on her part.
	I told you the ugliest of human traits is ingratitude.
	And the vast majority of people in this country, any ethnic group or color, should be grateful to be Americans.
	I'd like to ask this woman, you know, almost 3 million blacks have come to the United States in just the last 20 years.
	3 million from the Caribbean and Africa.
	Are they stupid?
	Ask that woman.
	If this woman could talk to all of these people, would she say, hey, don't be stupid, don't come to America, it's so racist, are you kidding?
	Don't come.
	Every leftist is a fool, black or white.
	There is no exception.
	Jew or Christian, black or white, it's irrelevant.
	Leftism is foolishness, but it's dangerous foolishness.
	Really, I would love to ask her, what would you say to these people, oh, you're idiots to come to this racist country?
	What would she say to them?
	Nigerians do better in the United States than whites do.
	How is that possible?
	Is it Nigerian privilege?
	West African privilege?
	You live in a world of lies if you read the New York Times and you go to college.
	That's what it is.
	That's just a sad fact.
	It's a world of lies.
	The leading historians in this country called the 1619 Project of the Times a lie.
	And these are anti-Trump liberals.
	The head of it, the guy from Princeton, Wilentz, Sean Wilentz, major historian, was leading a group to impeach Trump, and he called the New York Times thing a lie.
	Because he's a liberal, not a leftist.
	Many liberals tell the truth.
	No leftists do.
	The way it works, if you tell the truth, you can't be a leftist.
	I've been saying this for years.
	Now you know how true it is.
	Mark in Simi Valley, California.
	Hello.
	Hey, Dennis.
	I apologize in advance for making you talk about yourself, but I'd like to talk to basically your audience, your younger audience in particular, about the phenomenon of you becoming controversial.
	I've listened to you for about 25 years, and please don't be offended.
	But I found you, and when I first started listening to you, it was kind of this kind of grandfatherly old guy who was kind of a counselor, you know, and, you know, it was kind of fun to listen to.
	And then I listened to you all these years, and I never thought you were controversial at all until YouTube started banning your videos.
	Jews started calling you Nazi.
	And I just wondered if you could look at that phenomenon yourself objectively.
	There is nobody that the left does not call a Nazi or a racist that disagrees with them.
	There is no exception to that rule.
	They do the same to Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, Dave Rubin.
	There is no anti-leftist who is not a Nazi or a racist.
	That's it.
	So, what do they say?
	They're all Nazis except for Prager?
	That's the way they deal with it.
	They don't have arguments.
	So, it's a very fair question.
	I actually addressed it on occasion.
	I have a various number of young listeners, especially on PragerU.
	And so, I now have something on Facebook each week where I just take questions live.
	For an hour.
	And the issue came up of my being controversial, and I'm very open with people.
	When all is said and done, I advocate goodness.
	I advocate a God who wants us to be good.
	I advocate as uncontroversial a basic idea of life as you can get.
	God wants us to be good.
	That is very controversial to the left, because the left isn't good, and the left thinks God is nonsense.
	So that alone is controversial.
	See all the attacks on the videos, on the Ten Commandments.
	Only when people awaken to how evil the left is, is there a chance for the country.
	They hate what is good.
	It is as simple as that.
	When you hate the good, there's something very, very, very wrong with you.

	Are you mad about the Washington Redskins abolishing their own team mascot?
	I mean, here's the headline in the New York Post.
	Washington Redskins officially retiring the nickname that is considered by many to be a racist slur.

	The Redskins?

	Joe Biden, good to see you, sir.
	And look, Arizona is very much in play in 2020. So we appreciate you taking some time to talk to the people of our state.
	Oh, you're an important city.
	You guys are going through hell right now, aren't you?
	Excuse me?
	I wasn't born here, but I do know Arizona is a state and not a city.
	Has the GOP used that yet for their campaign ads?
	That's a keeper.
	That is Joe Biden, the man who would be president, who's been in politics for 49 years, who thinks Arizona is a city.
	My, oh, my, oh, my.
	Let's get going with our first guest of the day.
	He is the man who wrote the book, Trumponomics Advisor to Candidate Trump and to President Trump.
	It's been far too long, my friend.
	He is the Heritage Foundation's Steve Moore.
	I've got to say your name first.
	Welcome, Steve.
	Glad to be with you.
	And by the way, Sebastian, I know the answer to your question.
	Arizona is a state.
	Let Dennis be Dennis.
	Oh, boy, I got a lot of intense questions here I got a lot of intense questions here or comments.
	I want to get to them.
	Dennis Prager here.
	And let's go to Columbus, Ohio, which will no longer be Columbus, Ohio.
	David, hi.
	Hi Dennis, thanks for taking my call.
	I want to get your view on, I'll tell you how I feel.
	I'm a police officer.
	I've been a police officer for 29 years here in Columbus.
	I was born and raised.
	But the issue of the mask, as my point, I believe that people wearing masks as a nation is having a negative psychological effect on the population.
	I mean, we basically become a faceless nation.
	That is correct.
	That's correct.
	The price paid is enormous.
	I have described the veil in the Muslim world as dehumanizing.
	We are now all veiled, and it is dehumanizing.
	The left loves it because it shatters individuality, and they hate individualism.
	That was listed as one of the white people's values, individualism, that has to be extirpated from the American psyche.
	You're absolutely right.
	And it's, I mean, out in the public every day, it's almost like you're just looking at robots.
	That's right.
	That's correct.
	And with my job, and I've not worn a mask unless absolutely necessary.
	I'm with you.
	Our city is mandated.
	Our county is mandated.
	But there's, even when I approach strangers, even on or off my job, the first thing I do is smile.
	And that kind of sets the tone for the conversation or even just the passing.
	I mean, it's a pleasantry.
	And without that, there's just such a coldness in America.
	That's correct.
	And I hope it doesn't have a permanent impact.
	I hope not as well.
	Yes.
	Bless you, my friend, and bless you for your work.
	I just recorded a fireside chat.
	I talked about the police.
	My opening monologue, 15 minutes.
	I hope you get a chance to see it.
	All right, let's see here.
	Rich in Huntsville, Alabama.
	Thank you for calling.
	Thank you.
	Yes, Africans immigrating to America has more to do with the opportunities that are provided than it does have to do with America being A racial utopia.
	Most Nigerians have a degree or two in their pocket before they ever touch down over here.
	And they come here to complete their studies.
	And most of them that happen to take careers here, they still have families back home.
	And what they do is they make their money here and they send it back to their families over there.
	So no one is under the impression that America is.
	A racial utopia.
	And I would think that you would be against the utopian theory.
	So I don't know why you raised the issue.
	It's a straw man.
	Nobody's ever said it's a racial utopia.
	It's not a utopia in any way.
	There's no such thing as utopia on Earth.
	It's only utopia in the next world if you're a believer.
	So I don't know why do you raise the issue, but nobody claims it's a racial utopia.
	What I say is it's the least racist country on earth that has many races in it.
	No, no, no.
	Not for a black person.
	Yes, for a black person.
	Nigerians are black.
	Nigeria is less racist for a black person than America is.
	How is a black nation more racist?
	Okay, forgive me, you didn't hear my whole sentence.
	I said it's the least racist country with many races in it.
	Nigeria does not have many races in it, so it's irrelevant.
	That doesn't say much, because there's not a lot of nations with...
	You're right, okay.
	So this is a unique experiment.
	We need to deal with the fact that America is racist and change that.
	I don't believe America is racist, and I don't believe America is a racist utopia.
	It's your right not to believe it, but it's the truth.
	Okay, so we have a different view of truth.
	So then answer me.
	Why did 3 million blacks come from the Caribbean and Africa to a place that is so racist?
	They're so money-hungry that they would come to a place that hates them?
	You have contempt for these people.
	No, I love Africans.
	You love Africans?
	My dream is to one day live in an African nation.
	That's my dream.
	Burkina Faso, somewhere gone.
	That's my dream.
	Okay, alright.
	Listen, God bless you.
	I hope you live your dream.
	We should all try to live our dreams.
	That's fine.
	That's why you should read Out of Africa by an American black who lived in Africa.
	And maybe your dream will dissipate.
	I always find this interesting.
	I love Africans.
	I've never claimed I love Jews.
	I don't even understand that comment.
	I love some Jews, and I don't love some Jews.
	I love some Africans, and I don't love some Africans.
	I don't understand loving a race.
	I just don't get it.
	What if he's a schmucky African?
	Do you love him?
	Do you love all Africans except schmucky Africans?
	Do you love, what's his name?
	That horrible guy who ran Zimbabwe.
	I mean, you know, the amount of corruption in Africa.
	I mean, I love visiting Africa.
	No.
	Yeah, was it Mugabe?
	Robert Mugabe?
	Was that his name?
	My God, I was there.
	Anyway, this is a fascinating thing.
	People live in an irrational world.
	Yeah, Robert Mugabe.
	Is he an African that my last caller would love?
	How many Africans did he torture to death?
	All right.

	you Florida breaks the U.S. coronavirus record for new cases in a day.
	15,300 new cases yesterday broke the previous record.
	Some of the increase, according to the New York Times, reflects the dramatic increase in testing.
	We know that.
	Florida is testing several times the number of people that New York City did at the height of its crisis.
	The spread of the disease in the Florida sun does not play out with the same dread as it did in the crowded city streets of New York City.
	Hospitals are better supplied, somewhat more prepared to treat patients than they were in March and April.
	A lot of people are intuiting that the disease is less deadly.
	I don't think that's correct.
	There are two strains of it running around, and it may be correct.
	But I know one thing is doctors are much better skilled at treating it.
	And people are much quicker to get treatment.
	And people are not being turned away at the ER complaining of respiratory problems.
	And high fevers.
	They're being treated in isolation wards.
	They know the antivirals that work.
	They know the variety of hydroxychloroquine regimes that are appropriate or not appropriate.
	We're learning a lot as new therapies come on.
	And as a result, it's not nearly as deadly.
	It's still deadly.
	I think I read over the weekend, 0.8% is the current death rate, which is a lot.
	If you figured 330 million Americans got that, 1% would be 3.3 million Americans.
	Good news remains the same in studies that published over the weekend that we just don't have any children under 10 dying of the disease.
	Very few under 20. It's skyrocketing.
	Listen to what this brilliant, progressive, this smart, charismatic, bubbly, far-left, radical, progressive Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had to say over the weekend about rising crime and why it's happening.
	Get ready, because this is a doozy.
	So why is this uptick in crime happening?
	Well, let's think about it.
	Do we think this has to do with the fact that there's record unemployment in the United States right now?
	The fact that people are at a level of economic desperation that we have not seen since the Great Recession?
	Maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren't paying their rent and are scared to pay their rent.
	And so they go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money.
	So you maybe have to, they're put in a position where they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread.
	Or go hungry that night.
	Maybe it's the fact that unemployment provisions have not been given to everyone.
	Maybe it's because of the fact that people have...
	Hey, everybody.
	Be fast so I can take as many calls as possible.
	Dennis Prager here.
	Nathan, Colorado Springs.
	Hi.
	Hey Dennis, very good to talk to you.
	With everything that's happening with the left taking over our country, it's easy to feel that the tide is far too big to turn for individuals like me and my wife and my loved ones.
	What are two or three concrete things that people like me can do to stop the left from taking over and to turn the tide back toward conservatism?
	Well, you have to fight.
	There are many ways of fighting, but you have to make a decision.
	That while no single individual can undo the damage that the left is doing to the country, vast numbers of individuals can.
	And so there are many ways for you to do it.
	I am a big believer in letting people in my life know, send them sophisticated articles and videos, And ask them to react.
	Be gentle about it, but be firm.
	Please tell me what you find flawed in this, or does this touch you, or whatever.
	Support.
	Look, as I always say, there are three types of good people.
	Those who do nothing, those who fight, and those who help the fighters.
	Those who do nothing is generally the biggest group.
	And those who help the fighters are as important as the fighters.
	They're the supply chain.
	So...
	Well, I think, yeah, people like me are tired of watching and so fighting through sharing videos and stuff like that.
	That's right.
	And helping the people who are fighting.
	I mean, obviously, I have something called PragerU.
	Helping us has a big impact, which is why there's so many...
	We get so much flack, but that's because we're over the target.
	But it's not just us.
	I mean, Alliance Defending Freedom, there are so many wonderful groups.
	I'm just mentioning the one that obviously I'm most directly affiliated with and which touches the most lives.
	Support your Salem radio station by buying products from the sponsors.
	I mean, that's a huge help.
	Talk radio is the largest medium in the country that is exposing the evil that comes from the left.
	So they're not dramatic, but they're big.
	All right, it's too bad.
	I would, you know, so many important calls.
	Anyway, Margo, Charles, Joe, Tom, Eddie, Steve, maybe next week.
	I wish you all a good weekend.
	Do something that is not dictated by fear.
	The happiness hour was important.
	You can't just be safe.
	You gotta live.
