	Thank you.
	There is an eerie...
	Not eerie.
	Take that back.
	It's strange.
	The speed with which the weeks are going by, that we are in the middle of August.
	It feels like yesterday that the lockdown began.
	Had anybody said to me that in mid-August there would still be a lockdown in many places, I would have thought the person was...
	I was working for the CDC. Experts give advice based on their expertise.
	They don't give advice necessarily based on wisdom.
	That's why we have a commander-in-chief who is not a part of the military.
	We should have civilians, not experts, make policy.
	Experts put in their expertise.
	They should not be the ones who make policy.
	It's a disaster when they do.
	Because the number of foolish people among experts is exactly the same as the number of foolish people among non-experts.
	But experts think that they're wise because they're experts.
	Which is like saying, I think I'm wise because I play basketball or hockey.
	And then you think, well, maybe there are people who do think they're wise because they're famous.
	Because wisdom is a non-issue and has been for so long.
	I wrote for Templeton.
	The Templeton Foundation?
	I wrote a piece for them.
	I've got to find it somewhere in the recesses of my computer.
	Hard drive somewhere.
	I wrote a piece 20 years ago, I would say, on the death of wisdom in America.
	And we don't even value it.
	I don't even think that a high school senior could define it.
	Listen to Joe Biden when asked if he were elected, what he would do vis-a-vis the lockdown.
	Thank you.
	The lie about the president's fascist dictator has been four years if he would be a fascist dictator.
	The president has given the states, which is where it belongs, the authority.
	But if Joe Biden were elected, screw the states.
	I'm president.
	I am the dictator.
	Isn't that interesting?
	Isn't that important?
	Isn't that ignored?
	If it's interesting and important, it's ignored.
	That's the rule in the media.
	I don't know why people go to journalism schools.
	What a waste of money.
	They should just be told, if you are on the left, write what you think in the guise of news and have a great life.
	That is what should be done.
	Save a person a couple of hundred thousand dollars.
	But they don't want to save you a couple hundred thousand dollars.
	They want you to have to go to journalism school.
	How does he know about masks and distancing?
	How does he know?
	They told him that?
	In a well-informed basement.
	That's good.
	That's cute.
	A wib.
	He lives in a wib.
	But there are no masks in Holland.
	They're doing fine.
	No masks in Sweden.
	They're doing fine.
	They're doing better than us.
	It seems to me...
	Now, I'm not saying that...
	I do believe if a person is infected and speaks face-to-face to you for 20 minutes, you have a greater chance of being infected.
	Of course that's true.
	I understand that.
	I read to you from the New England Journal of Medicine.
	Indoors...
	Sustained conversation with no distance, then a mask is effective.
	So this notion, follow the science, is baloney.
	You see, you know what they don't ask?
	The left doesn't ask.
	Democrats, therefore, do not ask.
	They never ask.
	And this is all points that I've made prior to COVID, or as the president correctly calls it, the China flu, or the China virus, excuse me.
	The moment you ask the question, what is the price, you have become a conservative.
	Thank you.
	What is the price paid for this?
	How many people will go out of business?
	How many people will be evicted from their apartments?
	Or how many landlords will cease to function because they don't get any money from people who aren't paying?
	Does that matter?
	Or only the case count matters?
	It appears that this virus does what it wants.
	That's my non-epidemiological base.
	In other words, I didn't study epidemiology.
	But even if I did, you would dismiss me if you're on the left because they dismiss any doctor.
	Like a preeminent epidemiologist at Yale.
	He said hydroxychloric, but he's good.
	They dismissed him.
	So it doesn't matter what credentials you have.
	If you don't have credentials and you differ with the left, you don't have credentials.
	If you do have credentials and differ with the left, you are a fake practitioner of your practice.
	Get it?
	So nobody is legit if they differ with the left.
	That is the rule in America at this time.
	I think Sweden did the right thing.
	You cannot close down the economy of a country without horrific effects.
	You cannot have a policy that, well, if we save one life, if we save one life, then you cannot have highway speeds above 45 miles per hour.
	Once you increase the speed limit, more people will die.
	I made this point when the lockdown began.
	Social policies, almost all, have consequences sometimes in the number of deaths.
	Why don't we have prohibition?
	The moment that we repealed prohibition, we increased eventually, of course, this was very long ago before a lot of people had cars, but we increased by far the number of people dying from drunk drivers, the number of people Brain damaged and paralyzed by drunk drivers.
	We increase the number of children abused by a drunk parent.
	We increase the number of partners and spouses who will be beaten by a drunk spouse or partner.
	Right?
	Why don't we have prohibition?
	Why isn't there a lockdown on alcohol?
	Why is there only a lockdown vis-a-vis COVID? Because we're panicked.
	Because that's it, because we're led by emotions.
	Reason has been jettisoned in our secular age.
	Interesting, isn't it?
	Most rational people end up quite to be disproportionately religious.
	In my theory, the human being needs something that is non-rational in their life.
	We need it.
	Love is not rational.
	Love of music is not rational.
	And a lot of non-rational.
	There are non-rational parts to religious belief.
	That's just a fact.
	That's fine.
	I think it's terrific, by the way.
	It's okay with me.
	So religious people can confine their yearning for the non-rational to their religion.
	But secular people have no religion with which to express the yearning for the non-rational.
	So they express it in real life.
	And then the non-rational is dangerous.
	That's what we have.
	In our time, 1-8 Prager 776. 877-243-7776.
	Wow, look at that.
	The Star Tribune has endorsed Ilhan Omar's primary challenger.
	On what grounds?
	She's corrupt?
	It means nothing to the people who want her in.
	We are going to have bona fide communists in Congress.
	The United States is headed in that direction.
	I've never said this before.
	This is a first.
	I've never used the C word.
	As it used to be called.
	My dear friends, you want to do good?
	Help PragerU.
	Everybody knows how much good we're doing.
	That's why we are the largest non-left video producer on earth.

	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	Trending now on the Larry Elder Show.
	Now, President Trump, about the comparison that Obama made on Thursday during John Lewis' funeral that President Trump is akin to Bull Connor and George Wallace, two racist Democrats.
	Trump said this.
	The Press: Your reaction to President Obama, sir?
	The President: Yeah.
	The Press: Your reaction to President Obama?
	He's still been targeting minorities and attacking voting rights.
	The President: Well, he did a bad job for minorities.
	I did much more for minorities than he did.
	And if you look at our numbers prior to the plague coming in, and those numbers will soon be back, you'll see I did a much better job than Obama did by far for African Americans, for Asian Americans, for women, for any group you look at.
	Far better than Obama did.
	Now, of course, Trump is Trump, so people on the left, of course, are immediately dismissing that.
	However, Tavis Smiley, the hardcore lefty who for years had shows on PBS and NPR, admitted blacks lost ground under Obama.
	I'm sad to report that in every In every single leading economic category, black America has lost ground over the last decade.
	In every major economic category, we've lost ground.
	So this book comes out, as you said, in 2006. So clearly, this book was out before Obama shows up to win in 2008. So the book was never about Barack Obama then.
	This 10-year update is not about him now.
	But it is true that over these last 10 years, most of that on his watch, black America has lost ground in the major economic indicator categories.
	Send your cards and letters to Tavis Smiley, formerly of PBS NPR, who said blacks have lost ground under Obama by virtually every major measure.

	Do you have any confidence that we will have debates with people who ask Joe Biden tough questions?
	That's a great question.
	I hope so, because I think the country deserves that.
	Obviously, I don't know who they've picked as a moderator and so forth, but I do hope so, because the country deserves that.
	And I think even more importantly now, my biggest issue is this.
	The country faces massive challenges, not just the pandemic, but the pandemic.
	The confrontations that we're having with China right now are truly generational in scope in terms of what it's going to mean for the world.
	You know, radical Islam is on the retreat in parts of the world, so it could resurge at any time.
	The Iranians are the nuclear ambitions.
	We need strength.
	I just don't believe Joe Biden is strong enough to stand up and face these different challenges, not to mention elements of his own party that want to pull the country far, far to the left.
	And that's why it's important that he be challenged.
	Now, I don't think it's possible to get the Commission to be serious about this.
	I would trust Lester Holt.
	I would trust Anna Bash.
	I would trust John Dickerson.
	Who would you trust to do that?
	You've been through this gauntlet.
	Yeah, you know, that's a great question.
	I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about it.
	You know, I think Brett Barrett is another name that I would throw out there that I think is a serious journalist.
	It's become increasingly hard for many in the mainstream media.
	To sort of report on President Trump as a news item as opposed to become activist.
	I mean, it's just, I'm not saying everyone.
	There are people that try and work at it very hard.
	But, I mean, all you need to do is turn on cable television for five minutes and you can see it right away.
	There's no news being reported anymore.
	It's all outrage media.
	It's truly very alarming what's happened to cable news.

	Dear members of the entertainment community.
	Entertainment community.
	Entertainment community.
	We know that you're more famous than any of us.
	Well, most of us.
	I'm mad, distressed, alarmed.
	Infuriated.
	It's your job to be creative.
	Creative.
	Creative.
	And yet, how many of these lame-ass videos have you made...
	That look exactly like this.
	Like this.
	Like this.
	You entertain us.
	It's literally your whole job.
	Here's what we ask.
	No.
	I'd be surprised that the piece I'm about to read to you was published in the Washington Post.
	you It's in the true crime section yesterday.
	Well, really, today's physical paper.
	Ready for this?
	You probably, you can't be ready for this, to be honest.
	Headline, released from jail at height of pandemic, Virginia rape suspect allegedly killed his accuser.
	The incident in Carla Dominguez's apartment last October was violent, and it was not consensual.
	She testified in Alexandria District Court in December.
	The man she accused was indicted on charges including rape, strangulation and abduction, and jailed without bond in Alexandria, Virginia.
	Then the coronavirus pandemic hit.
	Ibrahim E. Boachie, Boachie's lawyers, argued that the virus was a danger to both inmates and their attorneys.
	And that Boatje should be freed awaiting trial.
	Hear that?
	On April 9th, over the objections of an Alexandria prosecutor, Circuit Court Judge Nolan Dawkins, who now is an unintentional murderer, released Boatje on a $25,000 bond.
	With a condition that he only leave his Maryland home to meet with his lawyers or pre-trial service officials.
	Is Judge Dawkins an idiot?
	Well, the answer is yes.
	Do you know, I have no doubt in my mind, Judge Dawkins still believes he did the right thing.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Because, if you remember, on...
	On the left, and I assume he's on the left, you never have to say you're sorry.
	Now, I'm just curious.
	Would any of us here, if we were a judge and somebody said, you know, there's COVID and we have this indicted rapist strangulator abductor who is on no bond, he's so dangerous, I'd say, sorry.
	Put on masks.
	I thought masks were supposed to work.
	Why didn't they just put masks on prisoners?
	They're separated.
	Keep distance and have them wear masks.
	Do you believe in masks or not?
	No, we'll release violent rapists.
	That's somewhat of a redundancy, violent rapist.
	Rape is violent by its very nature.
	And now he murdered her.
	Let prisoners out because of a virus.
	It's a new America.
	This never would have happened any time in America's past.
	Any time.
	$25,000 bond.
	On July 29th, Alexandria police say, 33. Returned to Alexandria and shot and killed Dominguez outside her apartment in the city's West End.
	By the way, how does an indicted rapist get a gun?
	I would like to know how he got a gun.
	Right, I know.
	I know it's illegal.
	I would like to know how he got it illegally.
	It's all just curious.
	Now, here's an interesting question.
	So I would like to ask Judge Dawkins and the guy's lawyers, who are also unintentional murderers, why don't you let him out now?
	I mean, he shot himself.
	He's in the hospital.
	I hope he dies slowly.
	I would like to know, why not let him out again?
	So, violence plus rape.
	I know rape is violent, but there is also rape that has extra violence, if you will.
	That, you get released because of COVID. But murder?
	Did they release murderers?
	I'm curious.
	Bet you they released, um, mad slaughter people.
	Yes.
	See, that's a question that Joe Biden should be asked.
	Do you agree with the release of people from prison?
	Well, you know, how many times did I say to you in the course of all of my broadcast career, health uber alice?
	I turned out to be prophetic.
	Health above all.
	But, of course, the amount of illness that will result from all of this is staggering.
	It's very scary, actually.
	What we have done to our society here.
	Uh-oh.
	I put in the wrong numbers in AP. I've been doing this since I... 25 years.
	Yes, indeed.
	What else did you send me this morning in the great news?
	By the way, there's a tweet of the Nigerian-American doctor.
	It's a video.
	It's a video put on Twitter.
	I don't know how long they'll keep it.
	Sounds like a very intelligent woman.
	It might be worth playing because of the way she's been ridiculed.
	Again, folks, this is the Nigerian-American doctor, Stella Emanuel, mocked viciously for comments she made having nothing to do with medicine in her church that the Daily Beast, which is a smear machine, found.
	Go ahead.
	Go to doctors.
	We have a certain category of doctors that are dealing with this.
	Certain category of doctors that are the naysayers.
	The first category of doctors are doctors that are not clinicals.
	I call them exotic professionals like head radiology and things like plastic surgery.
	Please, you're an MD. When you say things out there, people believe you because you're an MD, even though you don't have a clue what you're talking about.
	So don't become one of the doctors that are giving this information on something you don't know about.
	The second set of doctors that I'm going to talk to are doctors that are professional hacks.
	They're just opportunistic.
	Even though the stuff behind this is way more cynical, way more diabolic than just winning an election, don't be opportunistic because coronavirus doesn't know whether you're a Democrat or a Republican.
	It doesn't care.
	The third set of doctors that I'm going to talk about are those that don't have information.
	We went through to do all the research to get the information so that we can treat patients.
	Do your research.
	Don't just sit down and say, send me some more articles and send me science.
	There are over 500 articles worldwide that talk how good this drug is.
	Do your research and be a patient advocate.
	The last set of doctors that I'm going to talk to are the ones that I call the good Germans.
	You see, during the Holocaust, there were good Germans, good people that disagree with what was being done to the Jews.
	We'll continue.
	This is One Bright Woman.
	The Dennis Prager Show.
	live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	For almost 20 years, I've been searching for evidence of one of the greatest miracles of the entire Bible, the miraculous parting of the Red Sea.
	Tim, the first question most people ask is, "Where's Mount Sinai?" My first question as a geographer is, where was the sea that was parted and crossed?
	So what do you think the crossing site, where would that be?
	Well, for once, I'm going to follow the conventional argument here.
	When I look at the Exodus story through the eyes of a scientist, then it contains a lot of observations which just make sense to modern science.
	I think it is possible to demonstrate that it took place in close proximity to Egypt.
	I know that some people would say, well, there were probably 5,000, maybe 20,000 Israelites.
	This matter of large numbers is a very, very thorny issue.
	There has to be enough Israelites in order to make Pharaoh and the rest of Egypt scared.
	Whether the 10 plagues happened is a miracle.
	Whether the Red Sea parted is a miracle.
	Archaeology cannot prove or disprove a miracle.
	Make the sea small.
	Put it close to Egypt, all of a sudden it calls into question the biblical text itself.
	And you cast their pursuers into the depths as a stone into mighty waters.
	Where were these ancient lakes in what is now all desert?
	And what sort of people could stand the strength of the wind that would cart that depth of water?
	Nobody could stand and walk that land bridge in that sort of wind.
	It would be impossible.
	Why is it important to think about these things?
	At the end of the day, we're really talking about a miraculous event of unprecedented proportion of God's miraculous saving power.
	Trending now on the Eric Metaxas Show.
	Thank you.
	Barack Obama had a very simple foreign policy.
	Obama loved domestic policy.
	He acknowledged that was his sweet spot.
	And he once asked, what is your foreign policy doctrine?
	He said, just don't do stupid things.
	Actually, he used a little more colorful term, but we won't use that today.
	But the fact of the matter is that Russia reboot, when you look at it, It was a series of stupid decisions, decisions that backfired on the American people.
	And that's what Hillary Clinton is facing in 2016 when she goes into the election.
	It was a senior Clinton campaign official who told me we needed to neutralize this issue because we saw it as our number one liability.
	And then Seamus Bruner, my co-author, digs out a document that was in our files and we hadn't really understood the significance of all of a sudden.
	It's a poll from the summer of 2015. Hillary Clinton polls.
	What's her number one political liability?
	Is it Vince Foster?
	Is it Whitewater?
	Is it the Rose law firm billing records?
	Is it Benghazi and the tragedy there?
	Is it the classified email scandal that she was going through right in 2015?
	None of those registered as the number one impediment to the presidency for her.
	The number one impediment was the perception that she and her husband Bill Clinton cashed in along with other Democrats on the failed Russian policy.
	53% of the people on this private poll that the Clinton campaign did said that was the number one reason why they might not vote for Hillary Clinton.
	So that's why they hire Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS. It's why they carry out the dirty trick that we now know to be Russia collusion.
	You're telling me, John, that people from her campaign told this to you?
	They did.
	In fact, we didn't find the poll until we got that guidance from a very senior campaign official who was read into the...
	Hi, everybody.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	The Nigerian-American doctor comes across as so intelligent, so morally driven, so honest that it takes your breath away.
	I just want to add, I said this to the living martyr during the break.
	We've been to...
	Africa, a great deal.
	I've been to 20 African countries.
	There is truly a misconception about Africa, which is understandable, but nevertheless a misunderstanding.
	Africa is sort of like, in people's minds, in many black Americans' minds, it's the motherland.
	In many white American minds, it doesn't really exist.
	Some continent over there.
	But if you go there, you are struck by the number of really bright people.
	I mean, struck.
	In other words, there is, in Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana, and so on, I mean, there are really, you know, That's where they got a brain drain from Africa because there's such good doctors in Britain.
	And France, yes.
	So there were ads.
	Didn't we see a billboard come to Canada?
	You know, be a doctor in Canada or something?
	And I feel bad for African nations because they lose their best doctors.
	Not all, but many.
	She's an example.
	She is very bright.
	To take a speech that she gave in a church about doctrines that she inherited from her West African religious beliefs that have nothing to do with how she is as a doctor is classic leftist smear. .
	Thank you.
	See, they don't take issue with her on hydroxychloroquine.
	They mock what she said in some church service.
	I found it bizarre what she said.
	In a church service, so what?
	Truly, so what?
	You could make anybody's religious beliefs bizarre, and anyway, none of them compare in their bizarreness to left-wing beliefs.
	What harm is it that she believes, whatever she believes about some demons or whatever it was, I didn't follow it completely, compared to the belief that America is a racist society and all whites are racist?
	Tell me, Who has the monopoly on irrationality?
	When it comes to real life as opposed to theology, it's the left.
	I still haven't read to you the extensive analysis of Ibrahim Kendi, who along with the woman who wrote White Fragility.
	D'Angelis?
	No.
	D'Angelo.
	It's related to Sean, right?
	Sean, are you related to D'Angelo in some way?
	Robin D'Angelo?
	I heard that somewhere.
	I don't know if it's true.
	I don't want to say.
	It's alleged.
	Third cousin on your father's side.
	So I see.
	So listen to more of what she has to say.
	This just was put up.
	Her attack on doctors.
	It is so morally right on.
	I mean, it's frightening.
	She has said more truth in this video than you read in the New York Times in a week.
	Go ahead.
	But they stayed in their houses and they did not speak up.
	They hid behind their curtains, tried to close the door so that they didn't see it.
	They were not bad people in their hearts, but they were complicit.
	And because of that, millions of Jews died.
	There are many doctors in this country today that know hydroxychloroquine works because they inbox me all the time.
	I've treated most of them.
	I've treated their family members.
	They're scared for their license.
	They're scared because where they work, their company will fire them.
	They're scared because they lived in a leftist city.
	They're scared because they're young with two children and this is their profession and if something happens, they're not going to have money to feed their children.
	Because of that, you've become the good Germans.
	You're watching Americans die because you're scared for your license.
	You're watching people die because you're worried that you'll lose your job.
	That is right.
	That is right.
	Wow!
	We've got to keep that.
	The mockery of this woman tells you a lot more about the Daily Beast's moral state than it does about this woman.
	Wow!

	Hi, Larry.
	Hey, listen here.
	You're over there in California, in L.A. Why don't you come down south and hang with your Republican brother?
	I guarantee you'll find a different idea then.
	If your dad hadn't have left the south, you'd have a totally different take on everything.
	And that's still the same south.
	That's the one that Obama stands for.
	Larry, elder, reliefactor.com studio.
	What an ignorant statement.
	If you go down to the south and hang out with Republicans, you're going to have a different perspective?
	You mean like Vernon Jones, the Democrat who's now supporting Donald Trump and was accused of being bought off by Craig Melvin of MSNB Hee Haw?
	You mean like that?
	What does that even mean?
	It means that I'm a Republican because I want Southern Republicans to like me?
	How childish!
	I'm a Republican because I feel that party's policies better advance the interests of this country than do the Democrat policies.
	I'm not looking for a fishing buddy.
	I'm not looking for a party that is marching towards single payer.

	And they do.
	Green New Deal.
	A commission that's set up to study reparation for crying out loud.
	Free college.
	Debt forgiveness.
	Bernie Sanders wants that national rent control.
	And Bernie Sanders says he's going to be Leaning on Joe Biden to make Joe Biden the most progressive president in history.
	That is why sir, I am a Republican.

	I am still blown away at the indictment of doctors by this Nigerian-American doctor.
	She's so right.
	She is so right.
	They ask her for prescriptions.
	They hoard hydroxychloroquine.
	New York Times reported that.
	The doctors did, and then they shut up because they're afraid of losing their license.
	The amount of cowardice and corruption in America is very depressing to me.
	Thank you, Left.
	Rod, Minneapolis.
	Dennis, Los Angeles.
	Good morning, Dennis.
	You sound enthused.
	Great to have a chat today.
	Thank you.
	So you mentioned Julian Omar, and we have a gentleman, Anton Melton, who's going up against her in the primary.
	And it turns out that he is actually further to the left than she is, from what I've learned from other sources.
	Give me two examples.
	And before you do, I just need to say, I cannot imagine what left of Ilhan Omar would be.
	So, give me two examples.
	Well...
	No, no, you've got to give me two examples or your case isn't clear.
	I understand and I wish that I had the information, but if you listen to his ad...
	He's got an ad where he comes out, he's very soft-spoken and all this stuff, but he goes on about how progressive he is.
	Yeah, no, I know that.
	I looked at his website because of your call.
	I didn't know about him.
	Melton, it's actually Melton Moe, M-E-A-U-X. But so, I couldn't find, I mean, again, I'm not giving my caller a hard time.
	He's a good guy, obviously.
	I'm just saying, I can't, I don't know what left of Ilhan Omar would be.
	Do you?
	Can you?
	Is she for defunding the police?
	That's about as left.
	You can't get more left than defund police.
	Completely defund.
	So fine.
	So I don't think it's possible.
	She's anti-American.
	She's free college, free tuition.
	I just said that.
	Free health care.
	Anti-Israel.
	I mean, she has every credential of a leftist.
	I don't know how you get to the left of her.
	No, it's actually, it's not even a challenge.
	I'm curious, what is to the left of Ilhan Omar?
	That you...
	Here, this is to the left of Omar.
	That you take down statues of Washington and put up statues of Lenin.
	That would be to the left.
	I didn't think of that.
	Or nationalizing oil industry.
	Yeah, that's correct.
	That would be.
	I'm surprised they didn't do that.
	You know, statues of Marx.
	I wonder if there was a statue of Marx somewhere, whether it would have been torn down.
	I bet it wouldn't have.
	Alan in Chicago.
	Hi there.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	To preface it by saying I'm a big fan of yours, a conservative.
	I'm a dentist slash oral pathologist.
	I'd like to get clear with your position on masks because it seems undistapable that it's a mitigation on both the person that may have COVID and those that do not.
	And also just being a part of the team.
	Sometimes I'm on the team, but I don't necessarily agree with everything that coach is saying, but you know what?
	I'm part of the team.
	What team are you referring to?
	Tell me, Alan, what team are you referring to?
	The American team.
	I'm on the American team, too.
	We want to protect everybody.
	We want to protect ourselves, our loved ones.
	I don't know whether non-surgical masks outdoors are effective any better than you do.
	We both read.
	I read to you the New England Journal of Medicine and others who, before it became politicized, or even now that it is politicized, the New England Journal of Medicine still said it's essentially useless outdoors.
	So, okay, so why is everybody wearing it outdoors?
	We pay a terrible price, Alan.
	So what about indoors?
	I have no issue with people indoors wearing it.
	If I go into a store, I never make a fuss.
	I put it on.
	I'm a good citizen.
	Do I believe it matters?
	Not really, but I put it on.
	But outdoors, you are hurting society when you wear masks outdoors.
	That is my belief, because having an invisible population is a terrible price for people to pay.
	We are dehumanizing America for no good reason.
	We go to a call from Australia where they're really, at least in Melbourne, an incredible lockdown.

	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	But we're now looking at Doing, having to do something.
	You know, we have to be asked to go into a city like Chicago, which is so ridiculous, where they had like 68 shootings and 18 deaths over the weekend.
	It's not even comprehensible.
	Worse than Afghanistan, worse than any war zone.
	And so we're supposed to be asked.
	She is supposed to call the mayor, Lightfoot.
	She's supposed, Lori.
	She's supposed to call and she's supposed to say, we need your help.
	We call her.
	Would you like to have us go in?
	And they don't want us.
	And I say, what's going on?
	We are going to have to do something very comprehensive because we don't want to sit back and watch this.
	So what is that going to be?
	What does that mean?
	Well, that means sending people in.
	Just sending people in to clean it up.
	So it would be nationalizing the National Guard?
	By the way, the Chicago police are great.
	They're great.
	But they're not being allowed to do their job.
	The greatest example is New York.
	What's happening in New York?
	Crime is up 358 percent shooting.
	Nobody's ever seen numbers like this.
	They're not allowed to do their job.
	And if they do their job, if they do it well and it gets a little bit rough, they're afraid that they're going to go to jail for the rest of their life.
	So we are very tough on it.
	We are dealing behind the scenes.
	We're saying you better get going.
	There's a point at which we're allowed to go in, and that point is rapidly being reached.
	But we were going into Seattle.
	We did go into, if you look at the Minneapolis event, you remember that event when they lined up?
	And they just walked right through those streets like there was nothing.
	The National Guard.
	But there's a point at which we will have to do it because we just have to do it for the good of the country.
	And a lot of people say, don't do it.
	That's a local problem.
	That's good for you politically.
	I don't care if it's good for us or bad for us.
	We can't let this continue on.
	And I say to the police, you are loved.
	You are respected.
	This is a small group of crazy people.
	Just stay where you are.
	It's going to be turned around.
	People better be very careful, because you are going to have a backlash that's going to be incredible.

	Shane in the state of Victoria.
	Hi there.
	You're up early in the morning.
	Yeah, G'day, Dennis.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	It's all a pleasure, mate.
	Thank you.
	Yeah, it's about 2.55 in the morning right now.
	Right, I know.
	I broadcast from Australia.
	It's difficult.
	All right, go ahead.
	And it's very close to the Antarctic, as you know.
	You've been to Melbourne before, have you?
	Oh, yes, a number of times.
	But go ahead.
	Tell us what you want to say, because we don't have a lot of time.
	Alright, I just wanted to say I love your program and I'm with you 100%, all the Australians are with you 100%.
	We've got the same problems here where actually you probably know our lockdown right now is between 8pm and 5 o'clock in the morning where we aren't even allowed out of our houses.
	Yes, I know.
	And I was noticing an old lady the other day, I work as a public officer in a little charity for...
	A couple of decades now, Dennis, and I try to get people better care than the mental health care that they get in Victoria.
	So I'm very, what can you say, I don't really believe in our government for a long time now because they don't really care for the people with mental health problems except give them a lot of toxic drugs.
	But I saw this old lady the other day, and it was yesterday actually, and she was about in her 80s and 90s, and she was having trouble walking along.
	You know, in the street, and these people were too scared to take a mask off, but obviously she was actually not getting enough oxygen in the system.
	You mean by wearing a mask?
	That's right, and she would have been a very, you know, she probably would have been in her 90s and that, but she was, you know, I was just...
	Well, I know.
	Listen, I've got to let you go because we're just about to end the hour, but I thank you.
	I appreciate you being up at this hour and listening.
	I know we have a lot of listeners around the world.
	Because the issues are all international.
	They may have an American brand name, but they're international.
	If the left wins the next election, it will affect the world tremendously adversely.
	This is a big concern to me.
	I care about the world.
	Big concern.
	If America fails, it could.
	Remember my theory.
	Look at what happened in Europe after Christianity died, after patriotism died.
	They got communism, Nazism, and fascism.

	Where is the administration on encouraging American companies who are operating and manufacturing in China, especially PPE? How are you enticing them to come back to the United States to manufacture those types of goods?
	Because a number of these boxes you buy at the store for masks and such say made in China.
	But we're also making them here now.
	We have plants making all over, like Honeywell and companies that you wouldn't think of.
	For making this kind of stuff, they're making the certain types of masks, especially the medical, the doctors, what the doctors need in the hospital, the 95s.
	They are doing...
	I went up to one of the factories in Maine, and it's incredible, one of the plants, and it's incredible what all of these companies are doing.
	We're starting to make a lot.
	But you'll be seeing over the next two weeks, I'm doing something that's extremely bold, and you'll see, I think you'll be extremely impressed by it.
	Look, I've been fighting this with China for a long time.
	The globalists, they want to make everything in China.
	We can make our pencils here.
	We don't need 57 pencils for every kid.
	You can have two.
	And look, I'm very upset with China.
	I think what China did is a disgrace.
	Whether they knew it or not, I won't get into that.
	But one thing, they knew it well enough that it didn't get into the rest of China.
	But it did.
	Get out to the rest of the world, including Europe and the U.S. Then they tried to blame it on Europe.
	Then they tried to blame it on American soldiers.
	They did everything.
	It's a China virus.
	Whether you like it or not, it's a China virus.
	And you've got 20 other names you can give it.
	But I am very angry with China.
	So just to reiterate, you have something coming on enticing American companies out of China.
	something very strong.
	I think Trump's going to win and I think the Republicans are going to go hold the Senate.
	But because of what is going on in the Democratic Party, and I watch it every day, you know, right now they are holding hostage unemployment relief for people.
	Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer will not grant unemployment relief because they want radical policies.
	And they believe that the Republicans have to give them.
	They don't, and they won't.
	But Mitch McConnell's holding the line, saying, you know, we will extend some unemployment benefits and we will provide assistance where needed to particularly hard-hit industries, but we are not going to bail out blue state pension funds and we are not returning the state income tax deduction or the...
	Home mortgage interest deduction.
	That deal was done three years ago.
	It was working until the Chinese Communist Party unleashed the virus.
	So within the Democratic Party, there's this radical turn.
	Radical.
	It's not your parents' Democrats.
	It's not your Democrats.
	It's AOC and the Squad's Democrats.
	And their agenda is to hack, pack, pack, and tax.
	Can you remember that?
	Hack, pack, pack, and tax.
	They're going to hack the Senate filibuster.
	Into shreds.
	And once it's gone, they will pack the United States Senate by adding D.C. and Puerto Rico as states 51-52, four senators.
	They will pack the Supreme Court, like FDR tried to do in 1937, and then they will simply tax everything that moves, including your retirement.
	Pack, pack, pack, and tax.

	Where is this going to go?
	So here he is as President of the United States and he is really someone who believes in law and order and for some reason...
	That concept is infuriating to the left.
	And so the left is tearing apart the cities.
	They're burning, looting, and they're being called peaceful protesters.
	You know, the guy who's in the bunker, Joe Bunker Biden, I call him, is not really out there saying anything other than, you know, I'm going to cause change here.

	What it is, Eric, is it's between Those of us who believe in capitalism, free markets, the right of the individual to, you know, conduct themselves, to have life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and within that includes your right to work, take care of your family, and your right to your religion.

	Hi everybody, it's the Happiness Hour, and it's a challenge of happiness at this time.
	It's exactly why we need the Happiness Hour even more than ever, at least to talk about it.
	Now you realize how true what I've said every week for 20 years.
	The happy make the world better, the unhappy make it worse.
	That's correct.
	That's the way it works.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	This is the Happiness Hour.
	Happiness is a moral issue, not just an emotional issue.
	We are obligated to act happy even if we don't feel it because we cannot impose bad moods on others.
	And on the macro, happy people do not ruin the world.
	Happy people do not riot.
	Is that fair to say?
	By definition, happy people do not riot.
	I didn't say do not protest.
	I said do not riot.
	And there are many reasons for the widespread unhappiness in our society.
	The biggest is no meaning in life.
	With the death of religion and the death of belief in In America, as the last best hope of Earth, as Lincoln put it, what's left.
	No pun intended, because what's left is left.
	Those are the biggest.
	There are a lot of other reasons for widespread unhappiness.
	A lot of spoiled children.
	Parents who raise children with the belief that the most important thing was that they always be happy.
	And I'm the happiness guy.
	It's ironic, isn't it?
	Your task is not to make your child happy.
	Your task is to make your child good.
	Then they'll be happy.
	That's the way it works.
	You want your child happy at all times, you will, by definition, neglect their character.
	In fact, I mean, as it happens, you would even neglect their health.
	Oh, make you happy to have more ice cream?
	Have more ice cream.
	It's funny though, they wouldn't do that on health.
	They do it on character.
	But they don't do it on health.
	The other thing is parents wanted to be loved.
	Parents should want to be parents.
	Loved or not.
	Your task is to be a parent.
	So there are a lot of reasons for the widespread unhappiness in America.
	We talk about them every week.
	So I have not done an open line happiness hour since when?
	Since May.
	Three months.
	I did an open line in May?
	Interesting.
	So yeah, that makes sense.
	Four times a year.
	If you have to have stuff on your mind you'd like to talk about, I'm sure there are challenges to your happiness right now.
	I can't fix it, but we could talk about it.
	Yeah, May 8th.
	It's three months.
	Is it three months exactly?
	Yeah, basically.

	How do you look at life differently today than you did?
	Or America?
	Or your children?
	Or your spouse?
	Or your own life?
	Those are good subjects too.
	But I want to deal with your happiness issues at this time.
	I'll tell you mine.
	Okay?
	You know how open I am with you.
	I am less happy.
	I don't act it because I follow my own advice, but I am less happy because of my worries about this country.
	There is no guarantee that a free society will remain free.
	There is none.
	That's the story, that's the historical record, isn't it?
	There is no...
	There is no guarantee that the values that made this society possible will endure.
	There are vast numbers of people who loathe them.
	Objectivity, punctuality, personal responsibility, individuality, Judeo-Christian values, these were all posted as white values at an African-American museum in Washington.
	Well, if they're being listed as white values as opposed to universally good values, that bothers me.
	And it does affect my happiness.
	I never fake you.
	I'm not going to patronize you.
	I have too much respect for you.
	Of course it's affected me.
	We could lose this great country.
	The world could lose it.
	It could become another country.
	Corrupt, like so many others.
	So I fight, and I spoke to you a lot about how fighting does give one some degree of happiness because it is our task to do good in this world.
	Whether we accomplish the task or not, it's in God's hands.
	You know I'm writing a Bible commentary.
	At the very end of the fifth book of the Torah, the first five books, the most important books, because they made Judaism and they made Christianity.
	And they made the rest of the Bible, let's put it that way.
	That's an easier way, perhaps, to understand the importance of the first five books.
	And they...
	They end with Moses not getting into the promised land.
	It's always struck me as a parable for all our lives.
	Very, very few people see the promised land, or get into the promised land, whatever their promised land is.
	Just the way it is in life.
	But it doesn't free you from the struggle.
	You know, I wonder, as I'm thinking aloud here, I wonder if young Americans who do not identify with America think that all of those who died fighting for America died in vain.
	If the country is systemically awful, why die for it, right?
	I wonder what they would answer.
	I suspect that most of these people don't celebrate Memorial Day anyway.
	So what's on your mind?
	That's the question here as we continue.
	And I'll go to your calls.
	All right, Rich in Denver, thank you for calling.
	Hello.
	Hey, thanks for taking my call, Dennis.
	You know, I've got a friend that has an alcohol problem, and this whole COVID situation with AA and churches being closed and not able to gather has escalated this to the point where she has pretty much self-destructed her life.
	And it's concerning to me because I don't know how to help anymore.
	Was she in AA prior to the lockdown?
	She was, yes.
	And how long had she been sober?
	Two years.
	Yeah, that's a fragile period.
	Did she join AA on Zoom?
	She did for a while, but the Zooms all seem to have gone To the wayside, I guess.
	Really?
	I don't know if that's true.
	Somebody I know well, who's sober for now a number of years, tells me that in fact, that anytime day or night you can get to an AA meeting, if in your time zone everybody's sleeping, go to an Australian AA meeting.
	That's interesting.
	That's a good point.
	You know, Dennis, what I wanted to ask is, and I really appreciate your opinions on a lot of different items, but I really would like to get her introduced to God.
	I just, I'm not sure...
	Well, if she has been in AA for two years, she has been introduced to at least a higher power.
	That's a very, this is the, this is for me, Dennis, one of the great questions.
	How do you introduce people to God after they've had a secular brainwash?
	By the way, that's the biggest question in the society, and few are asking it.

	I But I think now that a number of Democratic voices have realized that even if there's no fraud at all, just put aside the whole allegation of fraud, there could be massive dysfunction in the tabulating of votes cast by mail.
	And I think that the New York congressional districts that are still not resolved from a June 23rd election because of this huge increase of voting by mail.
	Are a real warning sign about what could happen.
	Ben Smith of the New York Times did a column on some media people, TV people, who are saying, well, we've got to get away from this idea that there is an election night.
	And on election night, at the end of the night, maybe it's a long night, but you declare a winner of the presidential election.
	That's just not going to happen because of voting by mail.
	And they're right about that, I think.
	It's entirely possible.
	And it might not happen on election night or election week, or the week after that, or the week after that, or even in November.
	And you have to imagine, in today's political climate, having an undecided election in which there are fevered news coverage of ballots being discovered here, ballots being discovered there, lawsuits filed everywhere as far as the eye can see.

	But we opened this show, our three-hour show, with that clip because it is a perfect summary of what is being done to you and what has been done to America now for at least four years.
	Yes, the left has always lied.
	Always lied.
	Because for them, truth isn't an objective reality.
	Truth is whatever they need to win.

	Alright everybody, you know the last caller.
	This is the Happiness Hour, Dennis Prager Show.
	And it's open lines.
	What's on your mind about your happiness or about happiness in general?
	The last caller has a friend who is relapsing after two years of sobriety.
	And he ended it by asking, you know, how do you introduce her to God?
	Those of you who went to college or graduate school have been told that God is for stupid people.
	You've been told by stupid people that God is for stupid people.
	That's the irony.
	The odds are that the great majority of your professors were fools, and they told you about, or implied clearly, the foolishness of God.
	And Christianity, Judaism, those based on the Bible, the religion is based on the Bible.
	And they have deprived people of the most important source of values, as the founders believed.
	Our rights come from God.
	No secular ethicist I have debated, and I've done it all of my life, from Oxford to the radio, has ever answered my question, if rights do not come from God, where do they come from?
	There is no answer, do you understand?
	There is no such thing as inalienable rights if there is no God from whom they derive.
	You could say God is a fairy tale.
	God is a unicorn.
	So fine.
	You can say whatever you like, but you can't refute that claim.
	Anyway, I told you the left's made me more religious.
	It's the only good thing the left has ever done in my life.
	I realize where antipathy to the Bible leads people to the rotten thinking and destructive ideas that they...
	Expound upon.
	So he asked, how do you introduce such a woman to God?
	Because I think that would, in fact, solve her issue.
	Not that God solves your issue, but that faith in God does.
	I don't know when God acts.
	I make no claims with regard to that.
	Well, I can only tell you there are many ways.
	Not all are effective, but among the ways are people whom she admires, who do affirm God.
	That's one.
	Making clear the importance.
	And then there's my contribution.
	Why do you think I'm writing?
	You have no idea how hard it is, but why I'm writing my commentary on the first five books of the Bible.
	It is hard for me to believe.
	Look at the reviews on Amazon.
	There are over a thousand reviews.
	People say that they were agnostic or atheist and that this has challenged them.
	So, pay a person to read the Rational Bible.
	I'll give you, you know, Let's see.
	How many pages?
	Let's see.
	If you give, and that's too much.
	So, I'll give you, you know, every hundred pages, give you $20.
	I don't know.
	I don't know what to say.
	I'm trying to do the work to help you use reason to affirm this is the issue in America.
	I think I have a more receptive audience to my belief that the issue is ultimately about God and the Bible.
	When you see Bibles burned, I can't thank these people enough.
	Because Bibles have been burned at college, and I'm using a metaphor, not physical, since the 1950s.
	And in high schools.
	Look at the consequences.
	Mark in Holly Springs, Georgia.
	Hello, Mark.
	Thank you for taking my call, Dennis.
	Yeah, my happiness is getting rid of the NFL and the baseball.
	And four good things have happened to me.
	Number one, I'm reading the Bible more.
	And doing the church functions more on Sunday.
	Number two, I'm taking my wife out to Applebee's every Sunday.
	I didn't do that before.
	And number three, I've lost a lot of weight exercising on Sunday.
	We go for long walks.
	And the fourth thing is pretty funny is I no longer yell and scream and use bad words at my football team because they were so bad anyway.
	That is hilarious.
	I mean, the last one is hilarious.
	The first three were not hilarious.
	I think that the cowards who run football, hockey, basketball, and baseball, and they're cowards.
	They don't mean a thing that they're saying.
	These cowards have ruined their sport for the indefinite future.
	I feel exactly as you do, and I love sports.
	They're whores.
	That's what they are.
	They sell themselves to the biggest buyer.
	But you know what?
	I take it back.
	Because this is not meant to be cute.
	I have much more respect for prostitutes than I do for the NFL commissioner, NBA commissioner, and so on.
	These people make a living.
	They sell their bodies for a living.
	My heart goes out to them.
	That the NBA has sold its soul because they're cowards.
	That's all it is.
	It's all cowardice.
	Let me buy peace from the most radical elements in America.
	Let me crap on America.
	Drew Brees celebrates America, gets crapped on by the left, the next day joins the crappers.
	I can't get Drew Brees out of my mind.
	I'm not attacking him.
	He was in a position that called for courage.
	Courage is a very rare trait in the human species, so I'm not blaming him.
	What would the ideal be?
	I feel exactly as I did yesterday.
	I will stand for the American flag.
	I would like all of my fellow saints to do so.
	God, I can't believe they're not going to drop the name saint.
	There's got to be something wrong with that.
	The world in Saints, right?
	Do you know, I'm going to tell you an interesting story here and then go back to your calls. .
	And that is, many of you in Los Angeles join me in my battle to not have the Los Angeles County Commissioners remove the cross from the LA County seal.
	It was one of the most moving days of my life.
	2,000 of you showed up at City Hall with signs like Atheists for the Cross, Jews for the Cross, Buddhists for the Cross, because we didn't want the history of Los Angeles erased.
	Boy, was that a harbinger of things to come.
	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	For almost 20 years, I've been searching for evidence of one of the greatest miracles of the entire Bible.
	The miraculous parting of the Red Sea.
	The Red Sea.
	Tim, the first question most people ask is, where's Mount Sinai?
	My first question as a geographer is, where was the sea that was parted and crossed?
	So what do you think the crossing site, where would that be?
	Well, for once, I'm going to follow the conventional argument here.
	When I look at the Exodus story through the eyes of a scientist, then it contains a lot of observations which just make sense to modern science.
	I think it is possible to demonstrate that it took place in close proximity to Egypt.
	I know that some people would say, well, there were probably 5,000, maybe 20,000 Israelites.
	This matter of large numbers is a very, very thorny issue.
	There has to be enough Israelites in order to make Pharaoh and the rest of Egypt scared.
	Whether the ten plagues happened is a miracle.
	Whether the Red Sea parted is a miracle.
	Archaeology cannot prove or disprove a miracle.
	Make the sea small.
	Put it close to Egypt, all of a sudden it calls into question the biblical text itself.
	And you cast their pursuers into the depths as a stone into mighty waters.
	Where were these ancient lakes in what is now all desert?
	And what sort of people could stand the strength of the wind that would part that depth of water?
	Nobody could stand and walk that land bridge in that sort of wind.
	It would be impossible.
	Why is it important to think about these things?
	At the end of the day, we're really talking about a miraculous event of unprecedented proportion of God's miraculous saving power
	Trending now on America First with Sebastian Bercat Yeah.
	you Here's what I want to understand.
	It's the counterintelligence investigation that led to the interview.
	You didn't authorize the interview.
	As a matter of fact, you wanted to go to the White House and tell them about the problem, didn't you?
	That's right.
	I thought that that was the more immediate issue.
	And when you heard about the interview, you got upset, didn't you?
	I was upset that Director Comey didn't coordinate that with us and acted unilaterally.
	Yes, I was.
	Okay.
	Did Comey go rogue?
	Then you could use that term, yes.
	Does it not shock you that Sally Yates said what she said today about Jim Comey?
	No, I mean, Comey has...
	I've always had a theory about him.
	I think others have agreed or caught on with this as well, that he's really a Comeyist.
	I mean, he almost thinks of himself As a government unto himself all along.
	And that's been his approach.
	You know, it's like he's created this narrative and he's living it out like he's writing a novel in real time where he's the only honest man in government.
	Somehow, he never makes a mistake.
	He never errs.
	He puts himself in these highly politicized situations and in this case, clearly thought that he was the embodiment of the anti-Trump establishment meant to save the country.
	And it's alliates to say he went rogue because, as you know, Dr. G, this is a classic government maneuver when all of a sudden there's no more room to maneuver, when they can't do the dance, the Potomac two-step, you know, pretend like nothing bad happened.

	Alrighty, everybody.
	On the question of your happiness at this time.
	I wonder how many people have stopped watching professional sports.
	It'd be an interesting thing.
	There's a policeman in Los Angeles.
	Todd, hello, sir.
	Thank you for your work.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Thank you for what you do.
	I wanted to call you in because what's going on with the police right now and the tough times we're going through.
	I was right in the middle of the riot.
	I was one of the officers that had my Police car destroyed.
	Things thrown at me.
	And people have been...
	Some people have been a lot more aggressive with this.
	You know, giving us a finger and things like that.
	But overall, I got to tell you that this is the Happiness Hour.
	I want to call in and tell you that most people have been coming up to me, giving me their thumbs up, saying, thank you for what you do.
	We support you.
	I was at work yesterday.
	Somebody bought us our lunch.
	And, you know, it's tough to find places where we can go in to get something to eat now.
	We have to be worried somebody's going to put something in our food or in our drinks, with the salmon.
	I guess it was nice enough to pay for our meal.
	We wouldn't even stop at the beginning of it.
	We just said, hey, these guys, these guys, these are me.
	I think that even though we're seeing a lot of negativity about what's going on in the news, overall, there's a silent majority of people that are just at home with their jaws hanging open, saying, I can't believe what's happening, and they're just waiting around.
	They don't know what to do, waiting for somebody to do something.
	And I was just at one of our officers' funeral yesterday.
	The mayor was there.
	Didn't speak, but he was there while we stood and honored one of our fallen officers.
	And I just like to say that, you know, it seems to happen this hour, I think.
	But even though we're going through bad times right now, there's hope.
	And there's people out there that are with us and are waiting for something better.
	They just don't know what to do.
	God bless you, sir.
	And I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
	You know, PragerU had a national petition for the police.
	Back the blue.
	Tens of thousands of people signed it.
	I'll tell you what, last Sunday on my birthday, I spent a good chunk of my birthday doing what Jews call a mitzvah.
	It really means commandment, but it's generally used as just good deed.
	And I pre-recorded as the emcee of a telethon for the Jewish group Chabad.
	They're in 60 countries, I believe, or 80 countries.
	It's an amazing group.
	Every state of the Union is a Chabad house.
	These Orthodox rabbis and their wives.
	I always add the wives because they're...
	They're intrinsic to the excellence of their work.
	Anyway, I was the emcee.
	It's been hours.
	That's how I basically spent my birthday.
	It's a good way to spend your birthday, actually, when you think about it.
	Doing something good.
	You know, I never quite thought of it that way.
	Be that as it may, the only reason I'm mentioning it is they mentioned one of the rabbis I interviewed.
	At this, which will be aired in the beginning of September, I believe.
	Mentioned that his Chabad house made cupcakes.
	Cupcakes.
	Is that beautiful?
	Cupcakes for cops.
	The only reason I didn't hug that rabbi was because of distancing that was enforced in my interviews.
	How many rabbis, priests, or ministers are having their organizations make cupcakes?
	Think about it.

	If you go down to the South and hang out with Republicans, you're going to have a different perspective?
	You mean like Vernon Jones, the Democrat, who's now supporting Donald Trump, and was accused of being bought off by Craig Melvin of MSNB Hee Haw?
	You mean like that?
	What does that even mean?
	It means that I'm a Republican because I want Southern Republicans to like me?
	How childish!
	I'm a Republican because I feel that party's policies better advance the interests of this country than do the Democrat policies.
	I'm not looking for a fishing buddy.
	I'm not looking for a party that is marching towards single payer.
	I'm not looking for a party that believes open borders or porous borders advance their interest.

	Listen to this.
	I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message.
	She was the most welcoming person you could ever imagine.
	Her home was the safe place.
	It was difficult to comprehend how quickly everything kind of spiraled downwards.
	We didn't even know that she had COVID until a week later in her passing.
	The president made a huge mistake in downplaying this virus.
	There was a lack of leadership, a lack of responsibility, and a lack of resources.
	It felt like our elderly have not been a priority for this administration, that they don't matter.
	And I feel like my grandmother didn't matter.
	Last time I saw my grandmother, we weren't going to be allowed in the hospital.
	We asked if we could video chat her and everyone could say a little something.
	We gathered as a family, we prayed.
	But the fact that she was alone, it just breaks my heart.
	Nobody fails to have sympathy for that woman losing her grandmother.
	Everybody feels sorry for anybody who loses a loved one.
	To take that story and turn it into a political ad to vilify, to demonize the President of the United States is beyond disgusting.
	But we're now looking at having to do something.
	You know, we have to be asked to go into a city like Chicago, which is so ridiculous, where they had like 68 shootings and 18 deaths over the weekend.
	It's not even comprehensible.

	This is the Happiness Hour, and it's open to you and...
	Your thoughts or issues with regard to happiness.
	I fully acknowledge that I am less happy because of the lockdown and the riots and the hate of America that has become normative in the media of the United States of America.
	The schools that will teach your children to hate this country and have contempt for it.
	There are a lot of reasons that I have been affected.
	I love this country because I love the exceptional world and society that it has created.
	So I've talked to you many times, including the Happiness Hour, about what I do about it.
	So I fight.
	That's a very big deal.
	I have my weekly Sabbath service on Zoom.
	I have a weekly Sabbath dinner.
	Friday night, I haven't missed...
	I've missed maybe two with people.
	Of course, I have it on my own if I don't have it with my wife.
	But otherwise, it's been with friends.
	I have utter contempt for the don't visit people rule.
	Utter contempt for it.
	I think you are shattering your lives by listening, unless you are extremely...
	Likely to contract the disease and it could kill you.
	Obviously, I understand that.
	But otherwise, that you would allow yourself or your children to not have contact with people for half a year.
	You're out of your mind.
	You are irrational.
	You are scared so easily.
	You scare me.
	That's my view.
	I'm certainly ticking off a number of you.
	I have never sought to be loved.
	Ever.
	I want my wife to love me and my friends to love me.
	Of course, I want my kids to love me, but that can't be a parent's first desire.
	My first desire with friends and your first desire as a parent is to be a parent.
	Six months and not see people?
	Are you out of your mind?
	Yeah, you are out of your mind.
	Let me answer the question.
	So I have been happier than most because I have led a fairly normal life.
	The only thing I haven't done is I've traveled less than any time since I was 20 years old.
	I fly every week on average.
	And I've flown once.
	I had one talk in Phoenix.
	Next week I will have two talks, Wyoming and Montana.
	I'll tell you, if the states are open, you can eat in a restaurant and you can see people's faces in those places.
	It would be very tempting to move there.
	I'll see.
	I'll give you a report when I come back.
	It would be very interesting.
	I'm very curious to experience life outside of the...
	Dictatorship, California.
	The left-wing dictatorship, there are no other types in America, of California.
	I got a call from an Australian last hour.
	It's actually even more remarkable.
	I can only leave for an hour a day now in Melbourne.
	So what is the thinking?
	Will we just keep this going forever?
	Yeah, that's right.
	As long as there is a virus, correct?
	That's what they think.
	We're run by fools.
	that Western world is run by fools.
	Follow the science.
	I love that.
	If they followed the science, they'd be giving hydroxychloroquine to everybody who tests positive immediately for a week.
	With zinc, and then we wouldn't need a lockdown.
	Alright?
	But if you say that on Twitter, you lose your Twitter account, like Prager did.
	Or you're warned by Facebook you will not any longer have a Facebook page, as PragerU has been warned by Facebook, if we merely, merely offer doctors saying that hydroxychloroquine works.
	There is blood on the hands of Facebook.
	There is blood on the hands of Twitter.
	I mean that literally.
	Doctors who have gone along like sheep with the lies about it, shame on you.
	Shame on you.
	It will be a forever shame.
	I will not let them forget.
	They will want to bury it.
	Like they did the Russian collusion stories, but I will not let them.
	You who opposed something that could work because you hate Donald Trump.
	It's vile.
	So yes, happiness, it's been compromised in my case.
	That's correct.
	But it's okay.
	I have a lot of things sustaining me.
	The love of my wife, the love of friends, the love of my children.
	The religion that I believe in, the weekly service that I attend and teach at now through Zoom.
	Every Friday night with people to make Shabbat.
	Tonight I'm making Shabbat with a bunch of Mormon friends.
	This is a biannual event that we do.
	They even bake the challah for it.
	It's quite beautiful.
	I have a beautiful life.
	I'm very lucky.
	But I've also worked at it.
	It didn't just happen.
	So you've got to work at a beautiful life.
	All right.
	Let's go to more of your calls here.

	Hi, Dennis.
	How you doing?
	I'm a good job speaker here, okay?
	I hear you.
	How you doing, Dennis?
	Okay, thank you.
	So I wanted to tell you that with the shutdown, very depressing as it is, but I learned to love classical music.
	And I credit you with that because you had often said, try it.
	You might not like it, but if you...
	If you do, you do.
	You made my day.
	I want to hear how you did that.
	I've been dying to know the magic key to opening the door to the greatest music ever written.

	My personal life is a blessing.
	But I love this country, and I worry about it, and it's affected me.
	However, it's not affected my demeanor.
	It's not affected my desire to fight.
	But I am acknowledging, I mean, I'm not an air conditioner that just keeps blowing happiness no matter what's happening.

	Jim, in Shoreview, back to you in Minnesota.
	So during this lockdown, you've experimented with classical music thanks to my encouragement, which makes my day.
	So are you shocked?
	I am a little bit shocked.
	First, I want to say, Dennis, that I love this country, too, and I am a fighter, and I fight with you.
	The way this happened was...
	My in-laws visited from Tennessee, and they had left the rat race out in LA to move to a small town, Tennessee.
	I hadn't seen him for a long time, and my father-in-law was, he just seemed so happy.
	And I figured out what it was, and one morning I hear classical music playing, and him humping along to it.
	And I didn't think much of it until much later, you know, a month or so later.
	I decided to put some classical on, and I'd listen to it now and again, just a little bit, a little spurt.
	And one day I had it on in the car, and there was a piece that brought me on a journey.
	And it was like nothing else, and I had to pull over, and I tried to call the radio station to find out who wrote this and what is it.
	And it was the Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto.
	What is the Butterfly Lover's Violin Concerto?
	If you haven't heard it, it is indescribable.
	You're right.
	I have not, and I will.
	I mean, I know a lot of classical music.
	That's a new one.
	Could you look that up?
	Butterfly Lover's Violin Concerto.
	Anyway, welcome to the world of the greatest music ever written.
	Look, my theory, as you may well know, half the people will just not respond.
	That's fine.
	It's not a moral failing not to love classical music.
	Is that it?
	Oh, so I think this is from, I think it's Chinese.
	Yeah.
	All right, everybody.
	All right, call in now on any subject under the sun.
	1-8 Prager 776. I think Trump's gonna win and I think the Republicans are gonna go hold the Senate.
	But because of what is going on in the Democratic Party, and I watch it every day, you know, right now they are holding hostage unemployment relief for people.
	Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer will not grant unemployment relief because they want radical policies.
	And they believe that the Republicans have to give them.
	They don't, and they won't.
	But Mitch McConnell's holding the line, saying, you know, we will extend some unemployment benefits and we will provide assistance where needed to particularly hard-hit industries, but we are not going to bail out blue state pension funds and we are not returning the state income tax deduction or the...
	Home mortgage interest deduction.
	That deal was done three years ago.
	It was working until the Chinese Communist Party unleashed the virus.
	So, within the Democratic Party, there's this radical turn.
	Radical.
	It's not your parents' Democrats.
	It's not your Democrats.
	It's AOC and the Squad's Democrats.
	And their agenda is to hack, pack, pack, and tax.
	Can you remember that?
	Hack, pack, pack, and tax.
	They're going to hack the Senate filibuster.
	Once it's gone, they will pack the United States Senate by adding D.C. and Puerto Rico as states 51-52, four senators.
	They will pack the Supreme Court like FDR tried to do in 1937, and then they will simply tax everything that moves, including your retirement.
	Pack, pack, pack, and tax.

	Where is this going to go?
	So, here he is as President of the United States, and he is really someone who believes in law and order, and for some reason...
	That concept is infuriating to the left.
	And so the left is tearing apart the cities.
	They're burning, looting, and they're being called peaceful protesters.
	You know, the guy who's in the bunker, Joe Bunker Biden, I call him, is not really out there saying anything other than, you know, I'm going to cause change here.
	I mean, the guy's been there for 40 years, hasn't done a darn thing that I know of, and everything I hear he's done has been wrong.
	What it is, Eric, is it's between Those of us who believe in capitalism, free markets, the right of the individual to, you know, conduct themselves, to have life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and within that includes your right to work, take care of your family, and your right to your religion.
	And on the left is, yeah, we'll pay you some more money, stay at home, don't worry about it, lockdown.
	Little learned helplessness will be good for you.
	We'll go right into socialism.
	And, you know, those people don't believe you're lionized.
	They're not looting and emptying out those stores into their SUVs that they just backed up to the front of the stores.
	They're peaceful protesters.

	Yesterday, the U.S. reported more than 47,000 coronavirus cases, new ones.
	That's the smallest daily increase in almost four weeks.
	The president yesterday talking about some cautious optimism.
	Of course, we're dealing with the hurricane.
	We're dealing with storms.
	We're dealing with...
	Congress trying to negotiate this coronavirus stimulus, the PPP, the extended unemployment benefits.
	So we got a little bit of some perhaps good news, probably too soon to get too excited, but we got to continue to pray that we get this thing in the right direction.
	Yesterday, I think I shared the good news about a new drug that's being tested.
	It's a therapy that has been granted fast-track designation here in the United States out of Israel.
	Critically ill COVID-19 patients recovered rapidly from respiratory failure after treated by something called RLF100. So now two drug companies racing to get that.
	So that's the good news stack.
	Let me give you a little bit more good news.
	Politically.
	Do you know where the daily presidential Rasmussen tracking poll had Barack Obama at the exact same stage of his first term?
	It was 44...
	Okay, everybody.
	Dennis Prager here.
	Whatever's on your mind about you, about me, about life, about death.
	Maybe I shouldn't say that anymore.
	It's more real.
	And klop from the molar.
	That's right.
	Hit the head with a windmill.
	Whatever's on your mind.
	1-8 Prager 776. And that, needless to say, fountain pens, audio equipment, photography equipment, cigars.
	Okay, everybody, this is the hour.
	I look forward to this.
	And listen, don't get insulted if I drop you.
	It's not you.
	I choose by topic either.
	There could be a hundred reasons that I drop it.
	Certainly one of them would not be because you differ with me.
	I go to those as soon as I see them.
	But there just might be something I just covered or maybe something I don't know anything about.
	If you call about knitting, there's a good chance I won't take the call because I have nothing intelligent to say about knitting.
	On the other hand, the living martyr, Do you know anything about knitting?
	Nothing.
	Do you even know...
	Give me a series of...
	I know because of the priggy video, okay, but...
	Give me any words that you can associate with a stitch.
	I cannot think of another word.
	I would not...
	Is not K-N-O-T? Would that be a...
	A knitting word?
	You're looking at me like that's silly.
	Barely.
	Is barely one of the words?
	Sew stitch.
	Do you know anything?
	Cross stitching please.
	I was a boy scout.
	Quilting.
	It doesn't count.
	You know what?
	Go back to the Larry Elder show.
	All right, anyway, only what?
	Bobbin, of course.
	And Baskin-Robbins.
	How did I get onto that?
	Thimble.
	Oh, God, he's really taken this seriously.
	I never know what will start, Sean.
	There is no prediction.
	I could announce World War III has begun, and he will continue to be looking at the computer.
	But what words do you know that are related to knitting?
	He gets excited.
	There's no predicting.
	Anyway, just understand, that was all by way of explaining, if I don't take your call, don't be insulted.
	It's just the topic.
	Okay, let's go to what's on your minds, my dear friends.
	Yeah, there is really so much good stuff here.
	All right, here's a good one.
	I'm very curious about this.
	Chicago and Brian.
	Hello, Brian.
	I hope you'll join me and watch the meeting when I get to Chicago later this month.
	I might.
	I know the independent event was sold out almost instantly.
	Yeah, they should have charged more.
	I never understand why the stations don't charge more.
	Okay, go ahead.
	Yeah, so yesterday you were wondering out loud if it's ethical to buy UCD. Yes.
	I'm going to explain why in fact it is ethical to buy UCD. Okay.
	And it's based on the same principle that allows libraries to loan out a book.
	And that is what you're really buying is a license to use that intellectual property for your own personal use.
	And that license stays with the intellectual property.
	So if you loan out the license for someone else to use, you don't have it anymore.
	Now they have it.
	And if they give it back to you, now you have it.
	And same with the library.
	No, but wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
	What if, okay, here's the reason that I have an issue with used CDs.
	And believe me, I want you to convince me because they're a lot cheaper.
	So the issue I have is I assume that the person who bought the CD originally has what they call ripped.
	And that's not a pejorative.
	That's just the technical term.
	They ripped the files.
	They have taken the files off the CD and put it on a hard drive.
	So they still have the intellectual property of the CD, and now they're selling the CD even though they've taken the property for themselves.
	Correct.
	That would be a violation because if you sell the license...
	Okay, good.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Okay.
	Well, then you would...
	Now, my response to that...
	Okay, go on.
	My response to that is this, is that you can always ask.
	And if they say yes...
	How do I ask?
	If it's on...
	The only place I know about UCDs is on Amazon.
	Certainly...
	Well, you can...
	Okay, so...
	You can send them back to the seller.
	A lot of places on Amazon, they just buy and sell.
	Right, exactly.
	So they wouldn't know.
	So here's my question.
	Why would anybody get rid of a CD if they didn't take the files for their own use?
	There is no...
	I can't think of another reason somebody would sell a CD if they didn't already take the files.
	That's why it's a moral problem for me.
	But they didn't like the CD, so they got rid of it.
	You know how often that happens?
	1% of the time.
	99% of the time, a person buys a CD, rips the files, which is perfectly legitimate, but then sells the CD and keeps the files.
	That is cheating the company that made the music, the musicians who made the music.
	And I can't...
	So I can't morally justify...
	I would love to be able to buy you CDs.
	I don't care if it's a new wrapper.
	It makes no difference to me.
	Listen, I could theoretically sell my whole collection because I've ripped the files and kept the CDs.
	By the way, I'm glad I did.
	Because a great CD player sounds better than ripped files.
	Just for the record.
	Alright, anyway, that's the way it is.
	Okay, let's go to Dale in Detroit.
	The famous Dale of Detroit, I might add.
	Hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Hi.
	This is Dale.
	That's D as in W, E as in F, L as in 50, and E as in...
	I'm sorry, D as in W, A as in H, L as in 50, E as in F. That's what I always tell people.
	I didn't understand any of it.
	Well, D as in W, you spelled W with a D. Oh, that's good.
	That is good.
	You got me, man.
	D as in W. That was good.
	Wait, so what was the A as in?
	A as in H. L as in 50. There's no good one for L. Wait a minute.
	Why is L as in 50?
	Oh, very good.
	Okay.
	And E? What was the E? Okay.
	You know what?
	The 50 doesn't work, but the others are excellent.
	Okay, go ahead.
	All right.
	So the other day when you had Jeremy on in the segment, and if I can comment on you at the end in general, I have something at the end, but that's not why I called him.
	I know you want me to get...
	I always told kids...
	I'm 50. My kids are in their 20s.
	They just got through college.
	But they're friends, and when they were questioning college, when they were questioning their degrees, I always told them two things.
	I told them, not everyone's dumb enough to go to college.
	That's right.
	Not everyone's smart enough, but I told them, not everyone's dumb enough to go to college.
	The second thing I tell them is, if you do go to college, don't get a FIBS degree.
	Which is something I made up.
	It's NACN and it stands for fill in the blank studies.
	Because any degree that ends in studies is a lie.
	So it's a fib.
	So I call those fib degrees.
	Good man.
	Alright, what's your PragerU comment?
	So you have these segments every week on PragerU, or every week on your show with whoever did the PragerU video.
	Is it possible to take those clips and...
	Attach them to the PragerU sites for that video, even if they have advertisements in it, because you get a lot more content.
	Oh, you know what?
	That's a very interesting idea where we would amend to it Dennis Prager's interview with the presenter.
	Certainly with Jeremy Boring, that hour was magnificent.
	We obviously would leave out the commercials.
	Anyway, I like that idea.
	All right, appreciate it.
	Let's go to Ray in Columbus, Ohio, which will no longer be Columbus, Ohio.
	Hello.
	So, some of my friends are voting for Biden, and when press, all they can tell me is how much they hate Trump.
	Is that what we're going to come down to?
	Totally.
	That's exactly right.
	Nobody's voting for Biden.
	They can't say what he's good at, what he's about.
	Yes, that's correct.
	He's nothing.
	That is exactly right.
	But he will be, if he's elected, the author or the president during the greatest attack on American foundations in American history.

	This is good stuff.
	Elliot in Staten Island.
	Hi there, New York.
	Hi!
	Hi, Dennis.
	How are you?
	I hope you don't mind me calling you Dennis.
	You know, I'm a little upset at you.
	I purchased your book.
	I went for the second round of your Irrational Bible.
	I started off with the beginning in Genesis.
	And I want to tell you, I'm mad because I never had you as a teacher in Yeshiva.
	With your insight and your intellectual ability to explain it, it's unbelievable.
	And I just wanted to talk to you about that.
	That was one subject.
	And also, I wanted to talk to you about a fable, a Jewish fable about fear.
	And I had to go back about 1,500 years ago in Iraq, in a city there, where a plague was coming in, and they were all scared.
	And the rabbi was walking around the street one night, and he meets the angel of death.
	And he asked the angel of death, how many people are you going to take?
	And the angel of death answered him, "5,000." At the end of the plague, it came and it went.
	The rabbi noticed that there was 15,000 people that died.
	He was angry.
	He walked down the street.
	He met the angel of death again and said, "You told me 5,000, you." He says, "I did.
	I took 5,000 from the plague." He says, "But how is that possible?
	15,000 died." He says, "5,000 died from the plague.
	10,000 died of fear." Wow.
	That is one terrific parable, fable, story.
	Wow.
	Oh my God, you gave me the chills.
	You're a good man.
	You know, on the first subject, I got phenomenal reviews from major Orthodox rabbis, but I wish the Orthodox community knew about my commentary.
	Because it would strengthen their faith because, well, for the reasons that you said.
	So help spread the word, my friend, because if we don't make the case for the Torah to the world, we're doomed.
	We being the world is doomed.
	The answer to evil is in that book.
	That's why they burn Bibles now at some of these protests.
	The Rational Bible.
	I really urge you all to read it.
	Or listen to it, however you want to get it.
	But it's beautifully printed, so it's worth getting in hardcover.
	That's some fable, huh?
	10,000.
	See, you know what we don't have?
	Because the media don't have an interest in truth.
	What we don't have is it...
	A lot of things.
	One of the things we don't have is, and that's not easy to tally, I fully acknowledge it, is the victims of the lockdown every day.
	Why don't they have these charts every day, just as they do cases?
	How about the number of people who committed suicide?
	The number of people who committed homicide?
	The number of people who have relapsed?
	From their sobriety into addiction.
	The number of couples who have separated.
	Why don't you have that for lockdown?
	The number of people who've lost their life savings that they put into a restaurant.
	The Democrats lie about, they care about the little guy.
	They care about Walmart.
	They don't care about the...
	The nail salon.
	You know what they want with regard to the nail salon?
	Give them more money to expand government.
	Not help them.
	Give them money.
	Because when you give money, you get votes.
	The ultimate corruption is what democracy makes possible in corruption.
	The buying of people's votes.
	Right?
	Vote for me.
	I'll give you more for free.
	That's the motto of the Democratic Party and every left-wing party on Earth.
	Vote for me.
	I'll give you more for free.

	Hello, Ed.
	Hi, Dennis.
	I... Based on his, just his alone, his support of hydroxychloroquine, how can you vote for this idiot?
	Well, I guess you don't, which is fine, I guess you don't hear my show much because I have had, I have explained the excellence of hydroxychloroquine so much that anyone who opposes it, like you, have blood on your hands.
	People like you are causing people to die by scaring them off something that could save their life.
	It's a shame on you.
	Oh, Dennis.
	Why the shame on you?
	Shame on you.
	We'll see what history records.
	Those who opposed hydroxychloroquine turn out to be right, or those who were for it.
	That's it.
	And you're right.
	It will be a shame on me for advocating something, by the way, which can't hurt you.
	That's the irony.
	The drug's been taken for 50 years.
	There are places in the world where you buy it like cough drops, over the counter.
	There is so much available for you to read.
	Just read the Newsweek article two weeks ago by the Yale epidemiologist, professor of epidemiology, one of the most distinguished epidemiologists in the country.
	Folks, I've read everything against hydroxychloroquine.
	I can't believe anybody who still opposes it has read anything on its behalf.
	I truly believe opponents of hydroxychloroquine are killing people.
	I mean it literally.
	Literally, I never exaggerate.
	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	For almost 20 years, I've been searching for evidence of one of the greatest miracles of the entire Bible.
	The miraculous parting of the Red Sea.
	Tim, the first question most people ask is, where's Mount Sinai?
	My first question as a geographer is, where was the sea that was parted and crossed?
	So what do you think the crossing site, where would that be?
	Well, for once, I'm going to follow the conventional argument here.
	When I look at the Exodus story through the eyes of a scientist, then it contains a lot of observations which just make sense to modern science.
	I think it is possible to demonstrate that it took place in close proximity to Egypt.
	I know that some people would say, well, there were probably 5,000, maybe 20,000 Israelites.
	This matter of large numbers is a very, very thorny issue.
	There has to be enough Israelites in order to make...
	Pharaoh and the rest of Egypt scared.
	Whether the 10 plagues happened is a miracle.
	Whether the Red Sea parted is a miracle.
	Archaeology cannot prove or disprove a miracle.
	Make the sea small, put it close to Egypt, all of a sudden it calls into question the biblical text itself.
	And you cast their pursuers into the depths as a stone into mighty waters.
	Where were these ancient lakes in what is now all desert?
	And what sort of people could stand the strength of the wind that would part that depth of water?
	Nobody could stand and walk that land bridge in that sort of wind.
	It would be impossible.
	Why is it important to think about these things?
	At the end of the day, we're really talking about a miraculous event of unprecedented proportion of God's miraculous saving power.
	We'll see you next time.
	He acknowledged that was his sweet spot.
	And he once asked, what is your foreign policy doctrine?
	He said, just don't do stupid things.
	Actually, he used a little more colorful term, but we won't use that today.
	But the fact of the matter is, the Russia reboot, when you look at it, was a series of stupid decisions.
	That backfired on the American people.
	And that's what Hillary Clinton is facing in 2016 when she goes into the election.
	It was a senior Clinton campaign official who told me we needed to neutralize this issue because we saw it as our number one liability.
	And then Seamus Bruner, my co-author, digs out a document that was in our files that we hadn't really understood the significance of all of a sudden.
	It's a poll from the summer of 2015.
	Hillary Clinton polls Americans secretly to find out what's her number one political liability.
	Is it Vince Foster?
	Is it Whitewater?
	Is it the Rose Law Firm billing records?
	Is it Benghazi and the tragedy there?
	Is it the classified email scandal that she was going through right in 2015?
	None of those registered as the number one 1 impediment to the presidency for her.
	The No.
	1 impediment was the perception that she and her husband Bill Clinton cashed in, along with other Democrats, on the failed Russian policy.
	53% of the people on this private poll that the Clinton campaign did said that was the number one reason why they might not vote for Hillary Clinton.
	So that's why they hire Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS. It's why they carry out the dirty trick that we now know to be Russia collusion.
	You're telling me, John, that people from her campaign told this.
	All right.
	Hi, everybody.
	Welcome back.
	By the way, for the record, the source of all truth has IM'd me.
	You do not use a thimble for a knitting needle.
	Close.
	You use them for regular sewing needles.
	So, Sean was wrong, and I'm debating whether it deserves a bunch.
	Just a bit outside.
	But I'm not declaring punishment room.
	Missed it by that much.
	Yes, because, yes, you didn't miss it by a lot.
	All right, everybody.
	Hey, do we have our...
	Yes, this is fantastic.
	It is really a highlight for me.
	I don't want to put this woman on the spot here, this young woman.
	But it is a highlight for me.
	Every day.
	And for many of you to hear these young people who are members of PragerForce, we have 10,000 young people as members around the world.
	And that's a serious number.
	And everyone is a delight.
	And now, I've almost never met any of them personally, but I meet them as you do now via radio.
	Samantha Gagliano.
	Is my Prager Force person I have now.
	She is at Jefferson State Community College.
	Just graduated high school.
	And Samantha, where is the college?
	I'm located in Birmingham, Alabama.
	And are you from Alabama?
	Yes, I've lived here all my life.
	I envy you.
	I do.
	I think Alabama is a great place.
	In the modern period, it is a great place.
	Did you love growing up in Alabama?
	Absolutely.
	I love living here.
	Everybody, you know, we have our fair share of Democrats, but I would say the majority of the population here is Republican and conservative thinking, and it's been a great place to live.
	What city?
	I live in Birmingham.
	Oh.
	I live in the Hoover suburb of Birmingham, but I just say Birmingham.
	And this college is in Birmingham?
	Yes, there it is.
	So, do you have in your family, you know, as far as, we'll go no further than cousins, uncles, do you have any folks on the left?
	I don't.
	I'm fortunate that every single one of my family members, to my knowledge, support the president and that they're conservative.
	You're the first human being I have met who could say that.
	Maybe you have to grow up in Alabama for that to be possible.
	I do not have that experience.
	It is quite different.
	I'm very fortunate for that.
	Yes, indeed.
	So how did you get acquainted with PragerU?
	So I found PragerU on YouTube.
	I always like to be as knowledgeable as possible on certain political subjects, and I came across the YouTube channel, and I've been hooked on the videos ever since.
	What's your favorite PragerU video, if you have one?
	Well, I have a lot of favorite videos, but the one that stands out to me the most is the one on the gender wage gap.
	Amazing.
	Do you know that I have asked this now of about 100 Prager Forest interviewees?
	I think I've gotten a different answer every single time, which you have no idea how happy I am about that.
	It shows how good they are.
	Who gave the Gender Wage Gap one?
	Oh, Christine Hoff-Sommers.
	Oh, she's terrific.
	I've watched it a couple of times.
	I don't recall who.
	Yes, that's it.
	I definitely go back to that video a lot.
	Yeah, because it's just one of the lies that permeate our society.
	Yeah, I heard that many times on watching the news.
	Even in school, I was told, you know, it's the 21st century and women still make less than men do.
	And to me, that didn't seem right.
	And it wasn't until I watched the PragerU videos that I learned, yeah, you know, they kind of do make less than men, but it's really the type of jobs that women get versus the type of jobs that men get.
	So how old are you?
	I'm 17. How many 17, you don't have to answer this.
	I'm asking my audience.
	How many 17 year old speakers as confidently and assuredly and eloquently as she does?
	Were you homeschooled?
	I was not.
	I went to a public high school.
	I just graduated, actually graduated as a junior.
	So I did public school for about 12 years straight.
	A public school in Birmingham, is it teaching that America is systemically racist?
	Well, I think I was fortunate enough that I had some really good history teachers to teach me the right conservative values.
	I mean, there were liberal students at the school, but I do feel like I was taught the correct way.
	Well, you were taught truth.
	The correct way is the truth way.
	That's the key.
	I'll be back with Samantha Gagliano in a moment.
	Please know that this is the type of person that can save this country.
	So PragerU.com 833 PragerU.

	Trending now on The Larry Older Show.
	Hi, Larry.
	Hey, listen here.
	You over there in California, in L.A. Why don't you come down south and hang with your Republican brother?
	I guarantee you'll find a different idea then.
	If your dad hadn't have left the south, you'd have a totally different take on everything.
	And that's still the same south.
	That's the one that Obama stands for.
	Larry, elder, relief factor.com studio.
	What an ignorant statement.
	If you go down to the south and hang out with Republicans, you're going to have a different perspective?
	You mean like Vernon Jones, the Democrat who's now supporting Donald Trump and was accused of being bought off by Craig Melvin of MSNB Hee Haw?
	You mean like that?
	What does that even mean?
	It means that I'm a Republican because I want Southern Republicans to like me?
	How childish!
	I'm a Republican because I feel that party's policies better advance the interests of this country than do the Democrat policies.
	I'm not looking for a fishing buddy.
	I'm not looking for a party that is marching towards single payer.
	I'm not looking for a party that believes open borders or porous borders advance their interest.
	And they do.
	Green New Deal.
	A commission that's set up to study reparation for crying out loud.
	Free college.
	Debt forgiveness.
	Bernie Sanders wants that national rent control.
	and Bernie Sanders says he's going to be leaning on Joe Biden to make Joe Biden the most progressive president in history
	that is why you you you you
	Dennis Prager here, speaking with a Prager Force member in Alabama, Samantha Gagliano.
	And I just checked out your Twitter page.
	You have 1,400 followers.
	Really?
	Did you know that?
	I didn't know I had 1,400.
	I'm sorry?
	I don't...
	I didn't think I had 1,400.
	Yeah.
	Well, that's impressive.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	Well, anyway, we were...
	We're talking about the whole crisis in the country that we're undergoing.
	I'm curious, are you worried about America?
	You're 17, come from a conservative world.
	Are you worried?
	I'm worried if we don't elect the right people.
	If we continue to elect socialist and borderline communist people, I'm gonna get worried to bring eventually children into this country, but if we continue electing the right people, then I really believe our country is on the right path.
	So you will be worried if there's a democratic victory in November?
	Absolutely.
	I'm kind of scared for our country if Joe Biden becomes our president.
	Well, I am too, but I was curious because there's such an age difference between us.
	I was just curious Your age, with my values, handles it emotionally, and I guess it's quite similar to my reaction.
	By the way, I just want to say, even if the bad guys win, I want you to have children.
	Well, I plan to.
	No, you said, though, about bringing children into the country.
	That's what I'm reacting to.
	Okay.
	So on that, I'll ask you one more, well, two more things.
	Thank you for your time.
	I ask this of virtually every young woman I meet.
	In other words, young, basically, in their 20s or teens.
	And here it goes.
	So you don't have to give me the answer you think I want.
	Just tell me the truth.
	If you could be guaranteed, you could be given one guarantee.
	And it doesn't mean the other cannot happen.
	It just means only one is guaranteed.
	One guarantee would be a great marriage.
	The other guarantee would be a great career.
	Which guarantee would you take?
	That's a tough one.
	I would probably say a great marriage because if you don't have anything, at least you have your family.
	All right.
	You know what, I'll put you on the spot.
	What's the ideal husband?
	Ideal husband, I would like somebody with conservative values.
	I think that's a big one for me.
	I can't imagine somebody who leans left at all.
	Very religious.
	Those are my two main things.
	I'm pretty lenient, but definitely conservative values.
	Nice.
	Sounds good to me.
	Alright, finally, one more put-you-on-the-spot question.
	You have 30 seconds.
	Why would you advise people to contribute to PragerU?
	So people should donate to PragerU because it is helping saving the future of America.
	There's a lot of high school and college students that fall for the lies of communism and socialists, and they vote in social politicians like Bernie Sanders.
	I am donating to PragerU helps fund the truth and fund these educated videos that students and even people of all ages need in order to know our history and vote the right way so that our country can persevere its freedom.
	Did you read that?
	No.
	That was pretty darn good.
	I hope we meet one day.
	Me too.
	I hope to meet you in the future.
	Wonderful.
	God bless you.
	That does give you hope.
	That's a big deal.
	Prager Force is reason enough to support PragerU.
	Alright, now let's go to more of your calls here.
	And King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.
	Hi there.
	That's Tom.
	Hello, Tom.
	Hi, Mr. Prager.
	How are you doing?
	Okay, thank you.
	My question is, I often hear you talk about free will, and do you have any thoughts about predestination?
	Yeah, I don't see how the two can coexist, obviously.
	So, you know, as in Calvinism, is that what you're referring to?
	Yeah, what is that, Presbyterian?
	No, Calvinists generally believed in predestination.
	They even believe, if I'm not mistaken, that it's even predestined who was saved and who was not.
	Yeah, I've heard that.
	I never quite understood that.
	I put that...
	Go on.
	Well, doesn't it say in Job, I think...
	I knew you before you were in your mother's womb.
	Yeah, what does that have to do with predestination?
	That he knew you before...
	Yes, he knew you, but so what?
	Doesn't mean he governs what you do.
	Oh, I see.
	Yeah, okay, good.
	I'm glad you asked, because I want to clarify that.
	The whole point of, you know, that we are like God and animals are not, is because we have free will, animals do not.
	If we don't have free will, we're just animals with better brains.
	But unlike animals, we're pathetic because we delude ourselves into thinking we have free choice.
	Animals don't delude themselves.
	How could God punish you if you didn't choose to do bad or reward you if you didn't choose to do good?
	The entire basis of biblical justice Goodness and evil is that you have, I've put before you today life and death, you shall choose life.
	An example.
	That's the whole point.
	If we didn't have free choice, why bother teaching ethics, goodness, or religion?
	The Dennis Prager Show, live from the Relief Factor Pain-Free Studio.
	So you know the reason why we're in this situation is because of China.
	Where is the administration on encouraging American companies who are operating and manufacturing in China, especially PPE? How are you enticing them to come back to the United States to manufacture those types of goods?
	Because a number of these boxes you buy at the store for masks and such say made in China.
	But we're also making them here now.
	We have plants making all over, like Honeywell and companies that you wouldn't think of for making this kind of stuff.
	They're making the certain types of masks, especially the medical, the doctors, what the doctors need in the hospital, the 95s.
	I went up to one of the factories in Maine, and it's incredible, one of the plants.
	And it's incredible what all of these companies are doing.
	We're starting to make a lot.
	But you'll be seeing over the next two weeks, I'm doing something that's extremely bold.
	And you'll see, I think you'll be extremely impressed by it.
	Look, I've been fighting this with China for a long time.
	The globalists, they want to make everything in China.
	We can make our pencils here.
	We don't need 57 pencils for every kid.
	You can have two.
	And look, I'm very upset with China.
	I think what China did is a disgrace.
	Whether they knew it or not, I won't get into that.
	But one thing, they knew it well enough that it didn't get into the rest of China.
	But it did get out to the rest of the world, including Europe and the U.S. Didn't they try to blame it on Europe?
	Didn't they try to blame it on American soldiers?
	They did everything.
	It's a China virus.
	Whether you like it or not, it's a China virus.
	And you've got 20 other names you can give it.
	But I am very angry with China.
	So just to reiterate, you have something coming on enticing American companies out of China.
	something very strong.
	I think Trump's going to win and I think the Republican are going to go hold the Senate.
	But because of what is going on in the Democratic Party, and I watch it every day, you know, right now they are holding hostage unemployment relief for people.
	Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer will not grant unemployment relief because they want radical policies and they believe that the Republicans have to give them.
	They don't and they won't.
	But Mitch McConnell's holding the line.
	Saying, you know, we will extend some unemployment benefits and we will provide assistance where needed to particularly hardhat industries, but we are not going to bail out blue state pension funds and we are not returning the state income tax deduction or the home mortgage interest deduction.
	That deal was done three years ago.
	It was working until the Chinese Communist Party unleashed the virus.
	So, within the Democratic Party, there's this radical turn.
	Radical.
	It's not your parents' Democrats.
	It's not your Democrats.
	It's AOC and the squad's Democrats.
	And their agenda is to hack, pack, pack, and tax.
	Can you remember that?
	Hack, pack, pack, and tax.
	They're going to hack the Senate filibuster into shreds.
	Once it's gone, they will pack the United States Senate by adding...
	Alright.
	What a choice.
	Oh, man.
	Alright, let me take as many as I can.
	Don't hang up, folks, because at the very least, I want to summarize what you say.
	But I'll open with New Rochelle, New York, and Kirk.
	Hello, Kirk.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Always good to talk to you.
	Thank you.
	So, I'll keep it quick.
	I know we're at the end of the show.
	I have two options.
	I just graduated college, and I'm planning on going to graduate school.
	I can either go to law school or take a master's degree in ethics.
	What would your preference mean?
	That's like two doors in the Roman Coliseum.
	With, you know, one has man-eating tiger and one has man-eating lion.
	I have no preference.
	I don't trust...
	You're not going to make a living from the ethics degree, which is not reason enough not to do it.
	it I just want you to be aware you're more likely to make a living as a lawyer though many lawyers struggle and but the the let's put it this way Ethics programs are to ethics what divinity programs are to religion.
	They have little in common, my understanding.
	Erin in Columbia, South Carolina, the women in Congress are an embarrassment to women.
	By and large, that is correct.
	There are a lot of embarrassments.
	If you're a member of any group and you see members of that group on the left, it's an embarrassment because the intellectual level and the moral level is so low.
	So I totally get it.
	You're right.
	Eric in Colorado Springs, what's more important to teach kids, the Psalms or Ten Commandments?
	Ten Commandments is the most important thing you could teach in the Bible.
	Because if a person lives by the Ten Commandments, they will be a good person.
	If a society does, they will be good people.
	A society that believes do not steal will not have looters.
	Do not murder will not have murderers.
	I mean, think about it.
	I place almost all my chips are in the...
	All my eggs are in the Ten Commandments basket.
	Please read the Rational Bible, my explanation of the Ten Commandments in Exodus.
	And they're coming out again when they're repeated in Deuteronomy.
	All right, my friends.
	Help PragerU.
	It's fundraising month.
	Help yourselves.
