	Which this week reversed its position and admitted that the only thing the lockdowns managed to achieve was condemn millions to poverty and misery.
	Many of them live in small spaces.
	That is speaking about these ultra-Orthodox Jews.
	Which means that the lockdowns themselves were a major cause of viral transmission in Haredi neighborhoods.
	The Haredi Jews, unlike the swarms of armchair public health experts who propped up to offer their unreasoned opinions online, understood the effects of the lockdown intimately.
	That's because many of them live in small spaces with large multi-generational families.
	Which means that the lockdowns themselves were a major cause of viral transmissions in Haredi neighborhoods.
	It's also why this community suffered so gravely while observing the lockdowns from the very beginning and why the death rates in New York were so high.
	It hardly takes a medical degree to realize that when you lock families together in tightly packed buildings, those already at risk are going to suffer gravely.
	The same thing happened in New York's nursing homes.
	Turned by Governor Andrew Cuomo's murderously malfeasant policies into death factories.
	Considered against this background, Haredi behavior is eminently sane.
	Forget the cherry-picked shots of young maskless men thronging together for this happy event or that.
	You would have found such images in any community in the city had you bothered looking.
	Here, for the most part, was a community engaged in rational, evidence-based behavior based on their own values, which in fact accord with the recommendations of a large and increasing section of the public health community.
	It's the rest of the city and a large section of the country who've gone nuts, fetishizing lockdowns and embracing a host of measures which, by normative public health standards, are causing far more harm than the virus does.
	Far more harm than the virus does.
	Thank you.
	What then can the nattering nabobs who prattle on about science, while disdaining its core precepts, learn from the Haredi community?
	Two major lessons.
	First, how to be Jewish, and second, how to be American.
	Anyway, we've got to put the article up.
	It's from the tablet.
	I'll read more later.
	You see these Haredi guys, the young guys with the American flag?
	The only people who don't bow down to the secular gods are religious people, the Christians who gather in churches like Jack Hibbs and our friend.
	Rob McCoy.
	Those are the two I know of.
	I always said the truly religious Christian and the truly religious Jew have much more in common than separates them.
	If values matter, and behavior for that matter.
	...boards of state-imposed fear. Heather MacDonald, who isn't even religious. I You don't have to be religious not to bow down to the false gods of the age, but disproportionately they are the only ones doing so.
	I think Heather would take it okay if I said God bless Heather MacDonald.
	Do you think so?
	She's been on the show a lot.
	We share a love of classical music.
	She even came to my concert when I conducted the Haydn Symphony at Disney Concert Hall.
	Seems like a lifetime ago.
	We are living in an age of hysteria.
	Hysteria is very dangerous.
	More dangerous than a virus.
	The virus does its damage and then goes away.
	Hysteria does its damage and the damage stays.
	The warped minds, the warped hearts.
	Talk about warped hearts, not allowing people to die with a loved one present.
	You don't find that cruel?
	It all started with Andrew Cuomo's moronic comment, if everything I do saves one life, I'll sleep well at night.
	Thank you.
	It's a new criterion in public policy.
	Does it save one life?
	The chances of 200,000 people dying solely because of COVID are zero.
	This is from the CDC's own reporting.
	That if a person had COVID and died of something else, you still list it as a COVID death.
	Anyway, it'll be very interesting to see excess deaths this year compared, not to last year, but to the year before last year had very low, and see what happens next year.
	Because so many people close to death died this year, that there may be fewer excess deaths next year.
	1-8-Prager-776 is the number here.
	I'm going to open up the lines to whatever you'd like to ask me or comment in regard to this.
	While there is a break, I ask you to please go to my website, dennisprager.com, and click on the Alliance Defending Freedom banner.

	Turning now on The Charlie Kirk Show.
	In the summer of 2016, right near the Republican convention, out of nowhere, there was chatter that started to surface around President Donald Trump allegedly having connections to Russia.
	In fact, we can go back and we find television clips of Hillary Clinton campaign surrogates starting to talk about Donald Trump is bought and paid for by Russia or there is meaningful We'll
	talk about that.
	But 2016 was...
	A lot about what Donald Trump was going to do if he became president.
	It was a lot about the economy.
	It was about the Obama succession.
	It was about the Obama legacy.
	And so this conversation about Russia always felt very strange and very bizarre for those of us that were in the campaign or around the campaign, I should say.
	And so John Ratcliffe, the director of national intelligence, has just declassified A series of documents that revealed that former CIA Director John Brennan briefed former President Barack Obama on Hillary Clinton's purported plan to tie then-candidate Donald Trump to Russia as a, a quote means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.

	Trending now on the Eric Metaxas show.
	I want to go back to Pence.
	I was really, genuinely stunned and impressed at his self-control.
	I don't think I've ever seen anything.
	Because you did not get the impression, which the media sometimes wants to give you, is that he's dull, that he's a dud.
	You could see the fire within.
	I think many people saw him as incredibly presidential and thought, my goodness, you could think what you want of Trump, but he picked this guy to replace him if something goes wrong.
	That's a pretty good pick.
	When Trump or Biden are sworn in in January of 2021, They will be the oldest president coming into office for a term.
	74 or 78 will beat the all-time age limits.
	And so I think, particularly because of the discussion about whether or not Biden would even complete a term, I think the focus...
	On Kamala Harris being a potential president, really put that debate under that kind of spotlight.
	Would these people make a good president if the top guy goes down?
	And with Biden's health issues and certainly with the president catching COVID, I just think we've seen the humanity and kind of the frailty of the people that can be in that office pretty upfront.
	So that is a relevant question at this point in time, and there's no question about last night.
	that mike pence had command not only of what he needed to say and what he wanted to get across but uh the kind of have the demeanor to be able to do so in a way that would be appealing and understandable by the majority hi everybody i want to remind you about keepamericaamerica.com please visit it It's a major way
	to help save this country, which is what is involved.
	There's no existential threat to the planet.
	With global warming, there is an existential threat to America with the left.
	It's so clear that it pains me that the case has to be made.
	Go to KeepAmericaAmerica.com and voting has already started.
	This is about helping get the vote out.
	This is an area where you could be of tremendous service.
	KeepAmericaAmerica.com Already hundreds of thousands of people have responded.
	They want to get to a million or more.
	KeepAmericaAmerica.com Much obliged, my friends.
	Got a country to save.
	Indeed we do.
	So one of the leaders of BLM has signed a deal.
	The trained Marxist, as the Daily Wire put it, that's what she called herself.
	BLM co-founder Patrice Cullors, Inc.'s Warner Brothers TV deal.
	We have corporate fascism in the country.
	And in two ways.
	One, there are so few corporations that own almost everything.
	This is a leftist argument, too.
	They're right.
	But they should be thrilled, because they all act to buttress the left.
	The self-proclaimed trained Marxist co-founder of Black Lives Matter signed a deal with Warner Brothers Television Group last week, which intends to elevate black voices on television and promulgate the agenda of her organization.
	Wow.
	Building on her political activism, the Los Angeles native plans to work with the studio to develop scripted dramas and comedies, docu-series, and animated programming for children, young adults, and families.
	Wow, that's great.
	Learn to hate America now from Warner Brothers.
	The Warner Brothers are rolling in their graves.
	They loved America.
	And you know that history.
	Nobody loved America like the Warner Brothers did.
	This is really something.
	You can cry.
	Wow.
	As a long-time community organizer, I love that term, community organizer.
	It means someone who can do nothing else except raise trouble.
	And social justice activists.
	I believe that my work behind the camera will be an extension of the work I've been doing for the last 20 years.
	Colors added.
	Well, it'll be interesting to see if people watch it.
	What do you think?
	Huh?
	You don't know.
	Yeah, I guess we don't know.
	It's owned by AT&T, as I know.
	Doug in Denver, hello.
	Dennis, do you see that?
	I am, in fact.
	Oh, thanks very much.
	I've been listening to you since I was a teenager in L.A. I used to fall asleep in bed.
	I listened to you late at night.
	That is some compliment.
	That, I really am touched.
	Dennis, listening to you, put me to sleep.
	It kept me up too long at night.
	I'm totally on board.
	Thank you.
	I know.
	Well, here's my question for you.
	Let's say the Democrats sweep, crack the court, left takeover.
	I mean, it looks like a Marxist future.
	What do we do?
	Do we become like Jews and isolate ourselves and keep our...
	Value's going?
	Do we stay in our areas?
	I'm in Denver and Colorado and it's obviously gone hard blue here.
	What do we do?
	Do we escape places, make a strategic retreat?
	Well, I'll have a better answer after the election.
	When confronted with the issue, I will offer some thoughts.
	I'm not evading your question, and I never evade a question, so I'll give you some tentative thoughts.
	We have to, yes, we will have to retreat.
	We'll have to fight, but also retreat.
	We have to retreat primarily from the educational system.
	Your children are brainwashed with evil from a very early age.
	They become ingrates.
	They become jaded.
	They become unhappy.
	They become bitter.
	And they reject their parents' values.
	Other than that, schools are fantastic.
	So we have to get out of the schools.
	We have to create our own schools.
	And we have to homeschool.
	So that's an obvious answer that has to take place.
	We have already retreated from the mainstream media, so there's not much more we could do.
	Anyone interested in truth doesn't read the New York Times.
	People interested in leftist propaganda read the New York Times.
	So it's a very serious problem.
	But that's what I would recommend.
	What do we physically do?
	Can we do those things in our locations?
	Can we physically move to better states and so forth?
	Yeah.
	Ben Shapiro had an interesting...
	I think it was Ben Shapiro.
	He had an interesting...
	I think he said it to me.
	I already said it when we were on the same panel a couple of weeks ago.
	And he said, look, there are 10 million Republicans in California.
	That's a staggering number.
	And if just a tenth of them moved to Arizona or to Texas or Florida, that would ensure that those states stay blue.
	And that was a fascinating understanding.
	California has been destroyed by the left.
	This vibrant, lively, happy state has been rendered miserable and impoverished.
	And fecal matter is the new symbol of the state.
	So I think there will be, to be honest with you, Doug, I think there will be a sort of movement of Americans into congenial areas of values.
	Which makes perfect sense.
	It has nothing to do with race.
	It has nothing to do with ethnicity.
	It's all about values.
	And the only thing that happens is that the conservative states function well, like Florida.
	And so New Yorkers move there and then ruin it.
	New Yorkers are the perfect example, and Californians are the perfect examples of the threat of immigrants who hold different values than the society.
	Ann Coulter was right from the very beginning of noting that immigration is the issue.
	Among the five people who most hurt this country, Ted Kennedy would have to be considered one of the five that most hurt this country.
	And he was lionized.
	Because the left lionizes those who hurt the country.
	Is there something twisted in that world?
	1-8-Prager-776.

	I'm Dennis Prager.
	This is Owen Strand for townhall.com.
	If you're on a college campus today or have a child on campus, there's a solid chance you'll hear this: "All white people are racist." You might hear this, too: "America is founded on white supremacy." These two sentences are not mere overheated emotion.
	They express an ideology called Critical Race Theory, or CRT, which argues that race is a social construct made by white people.
	Just as race was once used to enslave and terrorize, so it is used today to keep America unequal, unfair, and hostile to minorities.
	The Trump administration just took symbolic and courageous action against CRT. It issued a memo to federal agencies calling for the end of the government's CRT racial sensitivity trainings, terming them divisive anti-American propaganda.
	Does America have real issues in its past?
	Yes.
	Have we made real progress that we must guard carefully?
	Also yes.
	The White House has led well here.

	Trending now on the Larry Elder Show.
	The indoctrination of the American voter has been going on for a very, very long period And we as Republicans, we as believers in liberty, we as conservatives should have pushed back a lot sooner.
	And we need to push back harder.
	That's why I made the Uncle Tom movie, because we also have to fight this battle at the cultural level too.
	Melissa, thank you so much for that.
	This is a crucial election.
	I'll tell you why.
	These guys get in charge.
	By these guys, I'm talking about Democrats, of course.
	Assume they take the presidency.
	Let's assume they take the Senate retaining control of the House.
	They're going to immediately get rid of the filibuster so that they can pass any budget they want on a simple majority vote.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Washington, D.C. as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Puerto Rico as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to...
	Push for a commission to study reparations.
	We're crying out loud.
	They're going to raise taxes.
	They're going to repeal the Trump tax cuts.
	And those tax cuts, 80% of the benefits went through the non-top 1%.
	They're going to push for the legalization of the illegal aliens who are here.
	Amnesty.
	And believe me, the number of illegal aliens in America is not 11 million.
	That's a number that they all cite.
	One study by a professor from Yale, so therefore you know it must be legitimate.
	Puts a number at between 20 and 25 million illegal aliens.
	That would change our voting electorate forever.
	That's exactly why the Democrats want to do it.
	Can you imagine if 11 to 20 million illegal aliens, citizens turned voters, pulled the lever for the Republican Party?
	Party, we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
	Keep up with what's trending.
	Here was what the President pointed out.
	This is the facts.
	This is the fact.
	Democrats are blocking the last relief package that Republicans put on the table and had the backing of the White House.
	Over a month ago, Democrats filibustered any discussion on an eventual passage of a $300 billion package.
	$1,200 to desperate Americans.
	$400 a week unemployment.
	President broke it down last night beautifully.
	The problem you have is Nancy Pelosi.
	She couldn't care less about the worker.
	She couldn't care less about...
	Our people, and we should have a stimulus.
	And I want a stimulus.
	The Republicans will approve a stimulus.
	The problem is she doesn't want to do it because she thinks it's bad for her election.
	The fact is she's wrong because people know she's in our way.
	She's not approving it.
	She doesn't appreciate our people, and she doesn't appreciate at all our workers.
	Nancy Pelosi, we are ready to sign and pass stimulus, but she's got to approve it.
	You could hear the minor bird interrupting him.
	That's not a shock.
	I told one of my kids last night, I said, Dad, Savannah Guthrie's terrible.
	Well, that's not a shock.
	You thought she was gonna Hello my friends I'm with you, Dennis Prager.
	Now, you just, I'm looking at the living water, my producer.
	You just received an email from a friend?
	Could you please read it to my audience, to my listeners?
	This is now the voice of Mr. Estrin.
	Yeah, I just got this.
	what it says my 91 year old uncle died they are attributing it to covid but it really wasn't covid he had covid a few weeks ago and they sent him home from the hospital he had cancer and other issues went back to the hospital a few days ago and didn't make it thank you That's right.
	That's what they do.
	The 200,000 number is a fraud.
	Everything the left puts out is a fraud.
	Much of what the...
	State apparatuses put out are frauds because truth is not a left-wing value, and they're increasingly admitting it because they hold, as the Stanford professor I read to you last week holds, objective, objective, what is it?
	Objectivity is phony.
	You should not strive for objectivity.
	You should strive for social justice.
	I was on a panel yesterday with three terrific colleagues and Seb Gorka was on the panel the founder of Turning Point USA Charlie Kirk and Larry Elder and I we're on a panel for the LA station
	AM 870. The answer, KRLA. Larry made a point that...
	I have made from the beginning.
	And as usual, Larry is just terrific.
	He combines a staggering memory and knowledge base with common sense and reason.
	I mean, he's rare.
	And he pointed out, he said, you know, we American people, we allowed this.
	We started this.
	As soon as the government told restaurants, you can't have a smoking section.
	And he said, I hate cigarette smoke, as I do, by the way.
	I hate cigarette smoke, too.
	But as soon as we said, okay, no problem, you could tell restaurants what to do.
	And, of course, in the name of health.
	And then it just steamrolled.
	In Burbank, near where I live, Burbank, California, cigar, you cannot smoke in a cigar store.
	You can buy cigars, but you can't smoke there.
	So people cannot voluntarily be around secondhand smoke because the epidemiologists lied to us about 50,000 Americans dying.
	That's when I started to have contempt for many epidemiologists, not all by any means.
	There are as many honorable epidemiologists as there are honorable lawyers.
	Okay?
	That doesn't mean there are no honorable lawyers.
	There certainly are.
	But we all know that there are many dishonorable lawyers.
	Ambulance chasers, as an example.
	I don't know why you think that there is more honor among scientists than there is any other group.
	I'll tell you why, because you worship science.
	I don't care if you worship science.
	I mean, I care, but I don't care as much as worshiping scientists.
	That's like saying, you know, I worship, because I worship God, I therefore worship clergy.
	Okay?
	Scientists are the clergy of scientism.
	And they are, but they're not just clergy, because no Christian or Jew worships clergy.
	But the left worships scientists.
	Experts say, that's all you need.
	It's like, thus saith the Lord.
	What a believing Jew or Christian hears in the prophets thus saith the Lord, the secular leftist hears in experts say.
	Like they capitalize black, they should capitalize expert.
	Because they have a divine status.
	That's what happens as soon as you start the ball rolling.
	Oh yeah, government can control X because I don't like X. Oh yeah, government can control hate speech.
	So then everything that the left doesn't like is hate speech.
	That's the problem with encroaching government laws.
	They never stop.
	Because there is no goal line.
	The goal line is totalitarianism.
	That's the danger, my dear friends.
	I've said it all my life, and I'm sure that half of you thought it was a throwaway line.
	Leftism is totalitarian in its nature.
	There is no exception.
	I've been telling you for a long time about relief factor.
	How many years now?
	40?
	Yeah, like Moses was on Sinai for 40 days.
	The flood was 40 days.
	The Israelites were in the wilderness for 40 years.
	Relief factor.
	It's actually affected, I wonder how many people.
	For the better.
	I'd like you to try it.
	If you have knee pain, shoulder pain, back pain.
	If it doesn't work in three weeks, it doesn't work.
	Isn't that great?
	I love that honesty.
	In three weeks, it's $19.95 plus shipping.

	The appointment of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the United States Supreme Court counts as a masterstroke and easily one of the best decisions of Donald Trump's presidency.
	In an election season when liberals and media try to characterize conservatives as old, angry, bigoted, extreme, and lacking in empathy, Judge Barrett displays the opposite characteristics.
	At age 48, she's youthful, a genial consensus builder, and mother of seven, including a special needs child and two adopted kids from Haiti.
	On a court dominated for decades by Yale and Harvard graduates, she's a breath of Midwestern fresh air, beloved by her students at Notre Dame.
	Most importantly, she'll give new life to the originalist thinking of her mentor, Justice Antonin Scalia, in stressing what the Constitution actually says, not what Judge wanted to say.
	As Americans have been losing faith in public institutions, Judge Barrett can help to restore their confidence.

	It demonstrates that Joe Biden, the Democrat nominee for president, this is not a Hunter Biden scandal.
	This is a Joe...
	Biden's scandal.
	Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had nothing to do with Hunter's businesses.
	We now know, we have email documented proof that nobody's disputing the authenticity of these emails.
	Nobody's disputing the authenticity of the documents that Joe Biden met with Burisma leadership.
	At the behest of his son, Hunter Biden, when he was vice president of the United States, and then he lied to the American people about it.
	His campaign doesn't even deny taking a meeting.
	What did they say?
	They just claim that there was no meeting on his quote-unquote official schedule.
	Doesn't mean anything.
	Doesn't mean anything.
	I can tell you presidents and vice presidents take scores of meetings that are not on their quote-unquote official schedules every day.
	We've been able to document The last time I met the president, I was in the White House, said I wanted to meet him, and they put me in the Oval Office after a COVID test.

	Sheriff Joe: Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager.
	By the way, it looks like I will be conducting another trip to Israel.
	We get many hundreds of you, and they're life-changing trips, and it'll happen in October of next year.
	If it does not happen in October of next year, I will go anyway, and anybody who wants to come with me should come.
	It's going to happen, October of next year, a year from now.
	The question is whether people will freak out.
	A lot of people have.
	Conservatives, too.
	I am stunned at the fear that has overtaken many Americans.
	I want to take a challenge here because it's an important one to clarify what I say.
	Philip in Chicago, hello.
	Hey, good morning, Dennis.
	Thank you.
	You just mentioned Israel.
	Israel is about to shut down.
	I know your opinions are always honest, so I'm not going to ask for your honest opinion because I already promised you that.
	But Herman Cain, was that real?
	Was Chris Christie, was that fake?
	The First Lady and Byron, was that real?
	And if they are, whatever your answer is, how many thousands or hundreds of thousands or five to ten, how many deaths do you really attribute to coronavirus?
	Okay, so everyone who gets COVID, it is real.
	I never even suggested otherwise.
	What I said was, like the uncle of this man, and the CDC acknowledges it, if you die of something else, but you had COVID, it is listed as a COVID death.
	And only 6%, I believe that is the figure, I'm not absolutely certain, of the 200,000 plus deaths were only attributable to COVID. So, the number is not truthful.
	COVID is truthful.
	COVID is not a hoax.
	The number is fraudulent.
	So why, I'll say, if everybody wear a mask, would that bring those numbers, I don't know, would it make the numbers more real?
	Would they bring the numbers down?
	I mean, if everybody wear a mask.
	If everybody wore a mask, I am agnostic on that question, because I read the New England Journal of Medicine report from July, which said that it only works indoors, and even indoors, the only time there's real risk is if you talk face-to-face for more than 10 minutes, which is pretty rare.
	And, of course, people are not wearing them on airplanes when they eat and they're two inches from each other, and that somehow people find all right.
	Baseball players celebrate.
	Go ahead.
	Wasn't that a White House event for the Supreme Court?
	Wasn't that an outside event?
	Yeah, and some people got the virus.
	Right, you're right.
	So some people will get the virus.
	You see, as I told you, I'm agnostic.
	I don't know enough science.
	I have common sense, which is as good in many ways, but not always.
	So I'm agnostic.
	I don't take a strong position on that.
	But I do take a strong position on understanding that the society pays a terrible price for masks.
	We are dehumanizing human intercourse.
	That's also a price.
	We act as if the only price is who will get COVID. I think there's a bigger price that kids will not see people's faces for a year.
	That's true.
	I mean, it's not funny, but it's kind of true.
	But the fact that I'm an African-American...
	Okay, let me ask you the question.
	Is it true that it's affecting more African-Americans and older and sicker Americans?
	Well, the older is definite.
	I mean, that's true everywhere in the world.
	I mean, if you took the older out of the Swedish equation, almost nobody died.
	And here, overwhelmingly, it was, you know, New York and the nursing homes.
	New York, New Jersey, nursing homes.
	Anyway, I don't know what to say about the data with regard to black Americans.
	I just don't know.
	I don't know enough science.
	I assume you do believe that blacks are disproportionately dying or getting COVID, or both?
	I'm understanding.
	I mean, Herman King is really the most, I mean, not the perfect example, but...
	He's an example that sticks out to me.
	Right, well, if he is an example, it has nothing to do with being black, because he was wealthy, very wealthy.
	And, you know, so he's a terrible example, because the argument is that blacks being generally socioeconomically disadvantaged are more liable not to get proper treatment or whatever.
	So Herman Cain...
	It's actually an argument for it not being race-based.
	But I don't know on that one.
	I just don't know what to say.
	You're a good caller.
	I appreciate it.
	It's very important for me that you hear me clearly.
	I don't care if people agree with me.
	I only care if people cite me accurately.
	That's the issue here.
	Very good.

	I grew up in Africa, in Zaire.
	My parents were missionaries.
	I was born in Canada abroad by American parents who were there learning French, so they could speak French when they went to Africa.
	And then my parents took a year and a half old and a six-month old out to Africa where we took hydroxychloroquine every week to try to avoid getting malaria.
	Right.
	The nastiest, most bitter little white pill you could ever put in your mouth.
	Remember it like it was yesterday.

	Two more 30-day bans.
	There's many bans of anybody you could ever find for reposting memes on Facebook.
	Right.
	What have you put up that they've caused to ban you?
	Well, most recently, I did repost a meme that basically suggested to Democrats that they make sure they aggressively go to the polls on November 10th and, you know, vote.
	But it was a repost of a meme that was already on Facebook, and obviously it's against There are community standards for me to suggest some type of voter suppression when really that's what they're all about.
	So for that, you were, oh look, something has to be done with the tech companies.

	Facebook suppressed this stuff.
	Twitter suppressed this stuff.
	They did it for different reasons, and the explanations that they gave were equally dissatisfying.
	Facebook tried to claim that this was illegitimately gained material, that they didn't have the right to this material to begin with, that it was hacked.
	Twitter took a wholly different path, saying something along the lines of, well, we can't prove that any of the facts involved here are true.
	So one of them's kind of admitting maybe truth to the facts, but saying that the Eric, let me give you a more concrete example.
	The New York Times published information related to the president's tax information that was not legally theirs to publish.
	Correct.
	They had no source on the record for it.
	They had no clear legal obtaining of it, and yet they published it.
	And Twitter and Facebook did precious nothing about those articles when they were retweeted in Facebook throughout the universe.
	In other words, if you need proof that they are biased and that they're using their Unbelievable, unprecedented power to try to get Joe Biden elected.

	Amy Coney Barrett was, of course, pressed on Roe versus Wade.
	Let's go to cut one.
	This is her response on the decision of Roe versus Wade.
	Play tape.
	I think on that question, I'm going to invoke Justice Kagan's description, which I think is perfectly put.
	When she was in her confirmation hearing, she said that she was not going to grade precedent or give it a thumbs up or a thumbs down.
	And I think in an area where precedent continues to be pressed and litigated, as is true of Casey.
	It would be particularly, it would actually be wrong and a violation of the canons for me to do that as a sitting judge.
	Now, Roe versus Wade was a decision that nationalized abortion.
	Now, prior to Roe versus Wade, there were several states across the country that had outlawed abortion.

	This is from my ever cognizant source.
	There you go.
	Okay, my friends. .
	We have a doctor calling in from San Diego.
	Dr. Neil Berkowitz.
	Hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	How are you?
	Hi.
	What's your field?
	What's your specialty?
	I'm in family practice, Dennis, and I've been in family practice and private practice for 36 years in San Diego.
	And this is, if anything, is in my wheelhouse.
	It is this whole business about these infectious diseases and viruses.
	That's what I've been doing for 40 years.
	And I know that it is our immune system that protects us against all the viruses, bacteria that are surrounding us at all times, that are in us, that are around us.
	And most people, most of the time, stay completely well because it is that immune system that is protecting us.
	And there's lots of different defenses we have.
	To think that a mask or social distancing makes any difference at all is just ridiculous.
	I know that's what you hear all the time, and I can understand why people who just hear from these so-called experts that that is the case would believe it.
	But I think that people who should know better, like Dr. Fauci and the Surgeon General and CDC, they know.
	Well, there's no question the political basis of it because to promote social distancing and masks is one of the linchpins.
	I'm probably going to be accused of racism for using that word.
	But anyway, that is one of the linchpins on which the whole lockdown depends.
	If you can discredit social distancing and mask wearing and just show that it is completely invalid, the whole justification of the lockdown crumbles.
	The other lineman is calling healthy people who just happen to test positive cases.
	Not in my entire career or my life I've ever heard of such a thing.
	The healthy people who are tested positive are called cases.
	Excellent.
	Most people think that those people are sick.
	They're not sick.
	They're completely healthy.
	And if they spread it to other people, it makes no difference.
	Those people are also completely healthy.
	But you need to test hundreds of thousands of healthy people to get a large number of cases.
	Cases, and you can justify shutting things down and closing schools.
	Right, but cases don't mean anything.
	That's excellent.
	Sorry to let you go.
	you're a delight to talk to.
	That's the story, my friends.

	I saw a report on how many more millions are unemployed in America.
	It means nothing to the people who support these lockdowns.
	So we have the New York Post article that I want to get right into.
	Biden's secret emails.
	Can you just tell us a little bit of background on how you were able to obtain these emails and build it out for us?
	So there is just the repairman.
	He repairs computers, specializes in Mac, somewhere in the area where the Bidens live.
	And about a year and a half ago, Hunter Biden, inebriated, he was somewhat drunk, came in with three devices to be repaired.
	The gentleman recognized him only when he came up very close because he has bad eyesight.
	And he took the three devices and he said one of them is gone and they deconstructed it and got rid of it.
	He said one of them just needs a keyboard to be attached to it and we can see if we can run it.
	And he said, the third one's in bad shape, but I think I can shave it.
	Hunter Biden, who then identified himself, said, well, that's the important one, meaning the one that has to be repaired.
	So they signed up a form document which required payment, but it also had a very interesting clause in it.
	It said, if you don't reclaim your property within 90 days of the completion of the work, the property is deemed to be abandoned.
	And under the law, abandoned property becomes the property of the first paid person who takes it.
	So the merchant would be the person who took it.
	So for 70, 80, 90 days, he was trying to reach Hunter Biden.
	Hunter Biden never responded.
	120 days, 130 days, never responded.
	Then he started hearing things on television and radio about the crimes allegedly committed.

	This is gigantic influence peddling.
	I don't know, I guess my question to you, Kevin, is what do you think is gonna happen?
	Because this is genuinely, in our nation, unprecedented.
	Well, I think it gives you a real clear snapshot of what it looks like without someone in the federal government bureaucracy that is dismantling it and tearing it apart and saying these things are crooked and corrupt.
	Without that force, this stuff would happen with no consequences.
	And so just imagine the amount of spying that we knew that went on with the Obama administration and just imagine all three branches of government all under the same control.
	All allowing such surveillance, and in this case, cover-up of corrupt behavior, etc., to be allowed to continue to occur without any consequence, and in all likelihood, without any awareness being raised to it.
	Again, it was the people of the United States responding to these huge media platforms.
	And let's be very clear about one thing about these platforms.
	They are not governed.
	The same way that media outlets are.
	They're not governed by the same rules that the New York Post or the New York Times are.
	They're supposed to be neutral pass-throughs.

	So you'll come out with a clear position before Election Day?
	Yes, depending on how they handle this.
	But look, what you should do is you got to make sure you vote.
	And vote for a senator who in fact thinks reflects you.
	People are voting now.
	I've already voted.
	He makes that point repeatedly.
	If George had been a real moderator, he would have pointed out, Mr. President, you always say people are already voting.
	So why don't those people deserve an answer right now?
	The answer is, he doesn't want to answer it, because it's radical.
	He's going to say yes, and he's going to fundamentally change the United States.
	Court packing is an assault on everything.
	And you just understand, the radical left got Joe Biden to sign on to court packing.
	I don't know if there will be enough senators.
	We've got to hold the Republican Senate.
	Against the possibility that Joe Biden wins.
	I think it's a neck and neck.
	Three new polls came out this morning which tell you that.
	They're all North Carolina.
	In North Carolina it is a tie between Biden and Trump according to Emerson.
	In North Carolina Cal Cunningham is allegedly one point ahead of Tom Tillis.
	I don't believe that after Cal Cunningham cheated on his wife and it has become a national news story and everyone in North Carolina knows about it.
	I don't believe that.
	I believe Tom Tillis is going to win.
	And it shows the governor up four, the Democratic governor up four over the Republican governor.
	That is within the margin of error in my view.

	It seems to me during the Democratic primary, there was a lot of talk about not only taxing the wealthy, but something called the wealth tax.
	And it was my understanding that they were taxing the wealth...
	That's right.
	Every year.
	living estate tax that goes every year.
	Now, I haven't heard anything about that.
	Can you tell me what that is and if they are still trying to promote that tax?
	Because I think...
	Well, everybody, everybody, - Welcome to the show.
	I'm Dennis Prager, chronicling the great crisis of our time, the first threat to America since the Civil War.
	And it's ongoing.
	As we continue the lockdown, the greatest mistake that the world has made, there were other great mistakes that individual nations made.
	There were greater evils, but in terms of worldwide mistake, this is unprecedented.
	There are two countries aside from the United States that I've been following with regard to lockdown.
	Sweden and Israel, which handled it the opposite way.
	Sweden with no lockdown.
	Kids went to school.
	Kids under 16 went to school the whole time.
	People aren't wearing masks.
	People congregate in restaurants and cafes.
	They have meetings, and Israel is in its second lockdown.
	I have no idea why Israel is in the second lockdown.
	They keep saying Israel has the highest cases per million.
	Do you read that?
	Have you read that?
	Maybe you're not following that as much as I. So, Israel, who cares?
	As the doctor who called last hour pointed out, first of all, When a healthy person has a flu or has something analogous, you don't call them a case.
	This is something new.
	But even if you call them a case, so what if you have it?
	If you're a case, so what?
	99.95% cases don't end up with death or higher than that.
	Unless you're over...
	Either 70 or 80, in which case it's 95%.
	You realize that?
	95% of people over either 70 or 80, I'll look it up.
	70?
	95% stay alive.
	We are freaked out because people want us to freak out.
	And you fell in.
	And it's sad to me.
	So those are the two countries I've been following.
	And in Israel, there's an uproar against the lockdown.
	One guy who owned a shoe store said, I'm going out of business.
	I'm putting the shoes on the street.
	Take them, folks.
	They're all yours.
	In his bitter resignation, people can't enter his shoe store.
	So those of you who think that my loathing of the lockdown is anti-Democrat just should know that I think that India and Israel, run by people on the right, made colossal errors.
	I'm animated by love of truth and love of freedom.
	How's that?
	and you'd be very hard-pressed to see where I have ever violated either of those values I have a theory Well, not a theory.
	I have a suggestion.
	Since the Biden campaign is not acknowledging the truth of these emails, The veracity of the emails.
	I think that Giuliani, or whoever is in charge of these emails, should simply say as follows.
	Okay, we will keep releasing, it's not our desire, but you have forced our hand.
	We will keep releasing highly embarrassing photos of Hunter Biden until you finally acknowledge that there was no other way we could have gotten these photos except from Verifiable data.
	Okay?
	Files.
	How would anybody have photos of Hunter Biden in extremely compromising positions if it weren't his own computer?
	Furthermore, just out of curiosity, He's obviously a troubled soul.
	I have no desire to weigh into that.
	My problem is with Joe Biden, not Hunter Biden.
	Remember when he bragged about...
	Oh yeah, so let me finish that point.
	Even given his state, why would he put photographs of himself on a drug binge?
	Do you know?
	Well, look, I just say this as a warning to all of you.
	Drugs kill, and drugs, if they don't kill the body, kill the mind.
	That's why I hate marijuana.
	I don't believe for a second that it is not a gateway drug.
	Of course there are many people who stop at marijuana.
	That has nothing to do with my point.
	How many people started with marijuana?
	Or how many people didn't start with marijuana and then took up harder drugs?
	My view is whatever you take to alter your brain is wrong.
	That's all.
	I'm not against alcohol.
	I don't think it alters the brain.
	Of course, if you become an alcoholic, it does.
	I don't drink, so I have no vested interest here.
	Everybody always thinks I have a vested interest.
	You're only saying that because, and then they fill in the blank.
	All right.
	So, these emails show that, in fact, Joe Biden, as Vice President, did meet with one of the heads of Burisma, the Ukrainian company, that paid his son $50,000 a month.
	Was it a month or a week?
	It was a month, right?
	$50,000 a month to do nothing.
	They paid him $50,000 a month for the same reason people paid Bill Clinton $500,000 to give a speech, to have access to Hillary Clinton.
	See?
	The level of corruption in the Democratic hierarchy is so much greater than the level of corruption in the Republican hierarchy that it takes your breath away.
	They're crooks.
	Joe Biden is the biggest crook to run for office since Hillary Clinton.
	In a good four years, there has not been a crook like Hillary Clinton on the Democratic ticket.
	I won't speak of Kamala Harris, how she gathered political power in California.
	Nobody talks about that.
	Being the mistress of the Speaker of the House of California, the most powerful politician in California for many years, Willie Brown, while he was married.
	It doesn't even come up.
	Can you imagine if a man had done that?
	The Feminist R.I., we do have double standard, and it's a standard that works against men.
	1-8 Prager, 7-7-6.
	So he boasted he got rid of the prosecutor.
	Remember that famous one?
	That son of a, let me use the word.
	I gave them six hours to fire that prosecutor.
	That was the prosecutor who was, in fact, now it turns out, going to prosecute charisma.
	And it's ties to the Biden vice presidency.
	Of course, he wanted him fired.
	You think Vice President of the United States travels around the world asking for prosecutors to be fired because he's on a noble quest of legality in different countries?
	1-8-Prager-776 is the number.
	Yeah, this is interesting.

	I have smoked a few before.
	But just based on what you were just speaking about with the gateway, you know, marijuana being a gateway drug, I'll tell you personally from experience, I'm a person who's, you know, been disabled since I was 22 with autoimmune disease, which turned into, you know, rougher things anyway.
	But marijuana is absolutely a gateway drug.
	I'll tell you that, you know, from my own experience because it led to opioids and it was a really rough time getting off of those.
	Well, I really appreciate it.
	I've got to take a break, unfortunately.
	But thank you for telling me.
	I want people to hear it.
	I want people to hear it.

	Just as race was once used to enslave and terrorize, so it is used today to keep America unequal, unfair, and hostile to minorities.

	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Washington, D.C. as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Puerto Rico as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to push for a commission to study reparations, we're crying out loud.
	They're going to raise taxes.
	They're going to repeal the Trump tax cuts.
	And those tax cuts, 80% of the benefits went through the non-top 1%.
	They're going to push for the legalization of the illegal aliens who are here.
	Amnesty.
	And believe me, the number of illegal aliens in America is not 11 million.
	That's a number that they all cite.
	One study by a professor from Yale, so therefore you know it must be legitimate, puts a number at between 20 and 25 million illegal aliens.

	And their whole lives they were politicians.
	I have no doubt that there are Republicans who were like that.
	Can you think of any offhand?
	A lifetime as politician and they're filled with millions of dollars.
	I'd be curious.
	Who would be equivalent?
	Well, take the Vice President today, Mike.
	Look, so Donald Trump is many times over a millionaire from private life.
	So he is kosher.
	Then we have Mike Pence, equivalent to Joe Biden, right?
	Vice President of the United States.
	Before that, he was in Congress.
	And governor of Indiana.
	So he's not rich, to the best of my knowledge.
	Are you aware of his being rich?
	So who else?
	Is Lindsey Graham a multimillionaire?
	I mean, I'm thinking of prominent Republican.
	This is such a scandal.
	That's why the Democrats are convinced they want people to vote as early as possible.

	The never-before-revealed meeting is mentioned in a message of appreciation that Vadim Pajarsky, an advisor to the board of Burisma, allegedly sent Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015, about a year after Hunter joined the Burisma board at about $50,000 a year.
	Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to D.C. and giving an opportunity to meet your father, And spend some time together.
	It's really an honor and pleasure, the email reads.
	An earlier email from May 2014 also shows Pajarski reportedly Burisma's number three executive asking Hunter for, quote, advice on how you could use your influence, unquote, on the company's behalf.
	The blockbuster correspondence which flies in the face of Joe Biden's claims that he's never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings is contained in a massive trove of data recovered from a laptop computer.
	I mean, did anybody believe that anyway?
	He never spoke to his son about his overseas business dealings?
	Sounding like a traditional publisher rather than a manager of Open Communications Network, Facebook's Andy Stone writes on Twitter, While I will intentionally not link to the New York Post, I want to be clear that this story is eligible to be fact-checked by Facebook's third-party fact-checking partners.
	In the meantime, we are reducing its distribution on our platform.
	That's Facebook and, of course, Twitter, we know.
	Twitter is being subpoenaed to the Senate to testify there.
	It's time to bust up these companies.
	There'll even be some leftists who support that.
	They have completely abused the privileges that they have been given of being the conduits of information in the Western world.
	Completely.
	No American government, right or left, has ever suppressed free speech as much as Twitter, Facebook, Google, and YouTube.
	None.
	It's hard to have foreseen that the threat to free speech in America would come from private companies or public companies, as it happened.
	Update, Twitter is blocking sharing of the post story with a note saying, quote, we can't complete this request because this link has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially harmful.
	Yes, potentially harmful to the Democratic Party for which all of these work.
	This is, this should really, this, not COVID, this should frighten you.
	The lockdown should frighten you.
	Not the virus.
	Kyle Griffin of MSNBC says, No one should link this to or share the New York Post report, quote-unquote, reporters quoted, put in quotes.
	You can discuss the obvious flaws and unanswerable questions in the report without amplifying what appears to be disinformation.
	That's what they do.
	The doctors who are against lockdown, misinformation, disinformation.
	That's the new word for unacceptable to the left.
	Now, Politico reports that a Biden campaign spokesman says, quote, we have reviewed Joe Biden's official schedules from the time and no meeting, as alleged by the New York Post, ever took place.
	Does this mean that the Bidens aren't disputing the authenticity of the emails?
	The qualifier about Mr. Biden's official schedule Also suggests that even the denial of a meeting via a spokesman is fairly weak.

	I believe Tom Tillis is going to win.
	And it shows the governor up four, the Democratic governor up four over the Republican governor.
	It's within the margin of error in my view.

	Thank you so much for calling.
	It seems to me during the Democratic primary, there was a lot of talk about not only taxing the wealthy, but something called the wealth tax.
	And it was my understanding that they were taxing the wealth that you had from your savings, from your assets, from your house, that kind of thing.
	That's right.
	At 10% a year, at every year.
	Every year.
	The state tax goes every year.
	Now, I haven't heard anything about that.
	Can you tell me what that is and if they are still trying to promote that tax?
	Because I think us seniors with some savings would probably not be happy about that.
	Well, you're absolutely right.
	And certainly that did come up during the campaign.
	I will tell you this.
	The lawmakers here in the state of California are absolutely proposing a wealth tax.
	They want to increase the state income tax from the highest in the nation, 13.3% to 16%.
	And they also want to pass a wealth tax.
	Now, why do I mention what's going on in California?
	Because every dumb idea...
	That the federal government wants to do has been tried at least twice in California.
	And so California is considering this.
	The lawmakers are all Democrats.
	Democrats occupy two-thirds of both chambers of the legislature here in California, plus they run the governorship.
	So in the unlikely event that the governor vetoed such a tax, there are enough lawmakers in both chambers to override the veto.
	So, do I believe that if these guys get in charge, there will be something like a wealth tax?
	All right.
	Nice to be with you.
	Dennis Prager here.
	I was asked last hour about masks.
	I said I was agnostic because there's a lot of data in both directions.
	The New England Journal of Medicine reported in July that it was essentially useless outdoors, and useless in most cases indoors, unless it's a surgical mask.
	Then they added, of course, that doesn't mean...
	They added after being pressured, obviously.
	They had an addendum after it was published to the doctors.
	Oh, of course, we're not saying people shouldn't wear masks.
	Courage is not to trait in any profession.
	It's among individuals in every profession, but only some individuals.
	Certainly not the medical profession.
	I do have a chart comparing mask wearing in different countries.
	There seems to be no correlation between mask wearing and cases.
	Let's put it that way, as they call it, cases.
	You know what the immature mind of the leftist doesn't ask?
	It's an immature mind.
	Because I'll tell you one of the defining elements of maturity.
	Asking, what is the price?
	Children don't ask, what is the price?
	They want something.
	They don't say, well, there's a price paid if you do it.
	If you eat enough ice cream, you will get fat.
	There's a price paid.
	The child mind, the childlike mind doesn't ask, what is the price?
	That is the issue right now.
	The price of the lockdown has been greater than the disease price since April, maybe before.
	The price of masks is by far greater than the benefits of masks.
	It has coarsened the American people when you can't see people's expressions for months.
	Something happens.
	Among the friendliest people in America have become less friendly.
	Excuse me, among the friendliest people in the world have become less friendly.
	Children don't see other children.
	Don't see adults.
	They only see their parents or their siblings.
	It's a terrible price.
	Reading faces is a very big part of life.
	Generally speaking, autistic people cannot read a face, which is one of the characteristics.
	Reading faces and seeing faces, why I'm so opposed to the veil?
	I consider it anti-feminine, excuse me, anti-female and anti-human.
	And now everybody wears a veil.
	Now, talking about the veil, I don't know, I'm curious how many of you are aware of the beheading of a teacher in France last week.
	New York Times, October 17th, today's the 19th.
	Paris.
	Suspect stalked French school before beheading teacher, officials say.
	The suspect in the beheading of a history teacher in a Paris suburb was an 18-year-old immigrant of Chechen descent who was angered by the classroom display of caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad.
	By the way, I always get a kick out of this.
	How the left does this.
	Do they ever give the Savior Jesus or Lord Jesus when they describe Jesus?
	So why do they do the Prophet Muhammad?
	Do they do the Prophet Moses?
	Or Moses, our teacher, as he's known in Hebrew?
	Only with regard to Islam is the...
	And of course, it's not the prophet even with a small p.
	It's a capitalized p.
	So the dishonesty on the left is pervasive.
	All pervasive.
	The suspect identified by the authorities as Abdullah A. They don't give the whole name in France of suspects.
	Stalked the area outside the school on Friday afternoon before following the teacher whom he stabbed and decapitated with a knife.
	Can you imagine that?
	Probably not.
	Who can imagine that?
	The gruesome killing appeared to be the culmination of a couple of weeks of tension In a quiet middle class suburb north of Paris.
	Muslim parents upset over the classroom display of two caricatures published by the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo had contacted school and police officials but videos uploaded on social media by one father Widen the dispute to an outside audience.

	The appointment of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the United States Supreme Court counts as a masterstroke and easily one of the best decisions of Donald Trump's presidency.
	In an election season when liberals and media try to characterize conservatives as old, angry, bigoted, extreme, and lacking in empathy, Judge Barrett displays the opposite characteristics.
	At age 48, she's youthful, a genial consensus builder, and mother of seven, including a special needs child and two adopted kids from Haiti.
	On a court dominated for decades by Yale and Harvard graduates, she's a breath of Midwestern fresh air, beloved by her students at Notre Dame.
	Most importantly, she'll give new life to the originalist thinking of her mentor, Justice Antonin Scalia, in stressing what the Constitution actually says, not what Judge wanted to say.
	As Americans have been losing faith in public institutions, Judge Barrett can help to restore their confidence.

	It demonstrates that Joe Biden, the Democrat nominee for president, this is not a Hunter Biden scandal.
	This is a Joe Biden scandal.
	Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had nothing to do with Hunter's businesses.
	We now know, we have email documented proof that nobody's disputing the authenticity of these emails, nobody's disputing the authenticity of the documents, that Joe Biden met with Burisma leadership.
	At the behest of his son, Hunter Biden, when he was vice president of the United States, and then he lied to the American people about it.

	Well, people will, if you vote Democrat, you are voting for American suicide.

	I'm not happy to say it.
	So back to France.
	So this teacher in a high school, I believe it was a high school, showed students, said he was talking about freedom of speech, so he was reviewing the Charlie Hebdo affair, which you may recall, the satirical journal in France, all of whose editors were then murdered.
	In the name of free speech, they put, you know, cartoon images of Muhammad.
	I mean, when you think about that in America, you go from museum to museum with a thing called Piss Christ, where you have a crucifix in the artist's urine.
	No, no, no, no, no.
	I will take full responsibility.
	I publicly announced that.
	And the crucifix is in the artist's urine.
	Did the artist get threatened by any Christians?
	And I have to say, crucifix in urine is even more defamatory than a cartoon illustration of Muhammad.
	But for many Muslims, the concept of free speech is completely alien.
	And if you insult anything that they revere, you deserve to die.
	Not to all Muslims by any means, but to many.
	Suspect lived in France with the status of a refugee.
	The brutal killing was the second violent episode within weeks to be linked to the caricatures published by Charlie Hebdo.
	Last month, as the trial of the accomplices in the 2015 attack got underway, The magazine republished the drawings, an act that was seen as a bold statement in the name of freedom of expression by some, but as reckless and unnecessary provocation by others.
	That's the New York Times, needless to say.
	They're the others.
	They're among the others.
	You can defame Christians and Christianity all you like in the New York Times, but Islam, oof.
	Here's proof, by the way.
	How come if you're anti-Jewish, there's a name anti-Semite?
	How come if you're allegedly anti-Islam, there's a name Islamophobic?
	Why is there no name for anti-Christian?
	Because the left makes the names.
	That's why.
	Because the left is anti-Christian.
	There's a name for anti-Christian.
	It's called progressive.
	Last month, a 25-year-old Pakistani immigrant attacked two people outside the former offices of Charlie Hebdo, apparently angered after watching videos showing protests in Pakistan against the republication of the cartoons.
	He went to the wrong address, by the way.
	He attacked two people in front of a place that doesn't even have Charlie Hebdo.
	France is having, well, I'll read you.
	Tensions at Collège du Baon emerged early this month as the teacher, who was 47, broached the topic of freedom of expression.
	To illustrate the topic, the teacher showed the students, mostly 13-year-olds, two caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad that had appeared in Charlie Hebdo.
	According to an email sent later to the parents by the school principal, the teacher asked students who might be offended by the material to look away or to temporarily leave the classroom.
	That's pretty sensitive, no?
	I have to say, as a believing Jew, if there was a cartoon caricature of Moses, I'd be most interested to see what it looked like.
	After all, Muslims make it a point of tremendous importance that they don't worship Muhammad.
	They only worship Allah.
	So how could there be some blasphemous painting of a mortal and not a divine being?
	Huh?
	I mean, for Christians, Jesus is a divine being.
	But for Muslims, Muhammad is not.
	So what's the issue to begin with?
	Well, a lot of wonderful people undoubtedly came in with a million Muslims.
	And a lot of unwonderful people came in.
	And France is contending with a lot of unwonderful people who don't want to be French, who don't want to be Western.
	In that regard, they have everything in common.
	With the left, who also don't want to be Western.

	So that they can pass any budget they want on a simple majority vote.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Washington, D.C. as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Puerto Rico as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to push for a commission to study reparations.
	They're crying out loud.
	They're going to raise taxes.
	They're going to repeal the Trump tax cuts.
	And those tax cuts, 80% of the benefits went through the non-top 1%.
	They're going to push for the legalization of the illegal aliens who are here.
	Amnesty.
	And believe me, the number of illegal aliens in America is not 11 million.
	That's a number that they all cite.
	One study by a professor from Yale, so therefore you know it must be legitimate, puts a number at between 20 and 25 million illegal aliens.
	That would change our voting electorate forever.
	That's exactly why the Democrats want to do it.
	Can you imagine if 11 to 20 million illegal aliens...
	Turn citizens, turn voters, pull the lever for the Republican Party.
	we wouldn't even be having this discussion here was what the president pointed out he wants any this is the facts

	The problem is she doesn't want to do it because she thinks it's bad for her election.
	The fact is she's wrong because people know she's in our way.
	She's not approving it.

	They've been living in Houston for years.

	Well, I don't know if legally, but there's no national database.
	They could easily vote.
	They could have four votes between them instead of two votes.
	They could double their vote thanks to mail-in.

	They want to increase the state income tax from the highest in the nation, 13.3% to 16%.
	And they also want to pass a wealth tax.
	Now, why do I mention what's going on in California?
	Because every dumb idea that the federal government wants to do has been tried at least twice in California.
	And so California is considering this.
	The lawmakers are all Democrats.
	Democrats occupy two-thirds of both chambers of the legislature here in California, plus they run the governorship.
	So in the unlikely event that the governor vetoed such a tax, there are enough lawmakers in both chambers to override the veto.
	I certainly believe that because they believe that rich people don't pay enough.
	The average Democrat believes rich people don't pay very much in taxes, even though the top 1% pay 39, almost 40% of all the federal income taxes.

	The appointment of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the United States Supreme Court counts as a masterstroke and easily one of the best decisions of Donald Trump's presidency.
	In an election season when liberals and media try to characterize conservatives as old, angry, bigoted, extreme, and lacking in empathy, Judge Barrett displays the opposite characteristics.
	at age 48.
	She's youthful, a genial consensus builder, and mother of seven, including a special needs child and two adopted kids from Haiti.
	On a court dominated for decades by Yale and Harvard graduates, she's a breath of Midwestern fresh air, beloved by her students at Notre Dame.
	Most importantly, she'll give new life to the originalist thinking of her mentor, Justice Antonin Scalia, in stressing what the Constitution actually says, not what Judge wanted to say.
	As Americans have been losing faith in public institutions, Judge Barrett can help to restore their confidence.

	It demonstrates that Joe Biden, the Democrat nominee for president, this is not a Hunter Biden scandal.
	This is a Joe...
	Biden's scandal.
	Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had nothing to do with Hunter's businesses.
	We now know we have email documented proof that nobody's disputing the authenticity of these emails.
	Nobody's disputing the authenticity of the documents that Joe Biden met with Burisma leadership.
	At the behest of his son, Hunter Biden, when he was vice president of the United States, and then he lied to the American people about it.
	His campaign doesn't even deny taking a meeting.
	What do they say?
	It's fascinating.
	They just claim that there was no meeting on his quote-unquote official schedule.
	Doesn't mean anything.
	Doesn't mean anything.
	I can tell you presidents and vice presidents take scores of meetings that are not on their quote-unquote official schedules every day.
	We've been able to document The last time I met the president, I was in the White House, said I wanted to meet him, and they put me in the Oval Office after a COVID test.
	I wasn't on the agenda.

	Hey everybody, Dennis Prager here.
	Before I get to my guests, the Hodge twins, I'd like you to hear the Hodge twins, two black brothers who are twins, who are a riot and an immense hit on the internet.
	I'm amazed they haven't been frozen out yet.
	I am.
	I'm going to ask them what the reason is.
	But here is just an example of one of their episodes.
	Yeah, I've got a new show for y'all.
	Don't forget, before we start the show, you want to pick up our cool merch, just go to officialhawtwins.com.
	You discount code Chinese Fires, you always get 20% off.
	That's not what we want.
	Good guys.
	Now that we paid the bills, Joe Biden is trying to teach cops how to do that job now.
	Yeah, because he's a veteran of the police department.
	He's made countless arrests.
	He knows how to defuse the situation.
	He knows how to de-escalate.
	He's an expert when it comes to policing.
	even though he's never wore a police uniform a day in his life.
	I hate to hear people.
	You know those people, they know everything?
	They try to tell you how to do your job?
	Yeah, they've never experienced it, never been in your shoes, but they know the correct and the best way to handle things.
	It's just so easy.
	Why didn't you do it like this?
	Why didn't you do it like that?
	Yeah.
	It's hindsight.
	It's just foolish, man.
	But anyway, at this town hall, this is...
	Boy, are they right on that one.
	What is his latest recommendation?
	Shoot the man in the leg?
	Guy has a gun, you know, aimed at you.
	And you shoot him in the leg.
	Anyway, the Hodge twins are a sensation, and I got a lot of questions for them.
	The brothers' names are Keith and Kevin.
	Gentlemen, welcome to my show, Dennis Prager Show.
	Thank you, Dennis.
	Thanks for having us.
	Where do you guys live, or do you not want to tell the world?
	Well, it's pretty...
	Well, I don't care.
	We live in Las Vegas, Nevada.
	We moved here from Virginia about a couple years ago to save on some taxes.
	Yeah, we're originally from a small town in Virginia called Martinsville.
	When did you guys start?
	We roughly started on the internet about, it was in 2008, but we went political back in 2012. It seems...
	No, not 2012. I'm sorry.
	We didn't go political in 2012. I was thinking about something else.
	It was around 2017 or so.
	Oh, so just three years ago, relatively recently.
	Yeah.
	And what did you do on the Internet before that?
	Well, we're in the fitness, and we used to give fitness tips to anybody who was interested in losing weight.
	We also did current events where we talked about what was in the news, but we always stayed from political stuff because we didn't want to alienate our fan base.
	Yeah, we always did relationships, too, but I know we got a lot of Christian followers.
	You might want to tell them about that, Josh.
	Wait, I want to know about the alienating your fan base.
	Isn't that exactly what you did?
	Oh, yeah, definitely.
	Back in 2017 when we did our first video, because we got tired of turning on the TV and watching all these celebrities on Instagram just bash the president, and they're out there voicing their political views.
	And I was like, we didn't want to do that because, you know, of course we alienate half our fan base, but we got so sick and tired of the left.
	And I was like, you know what?
	We're going to use our platform for some good.
	Yeah, we've been concerned for years before we came out.
	Well, we like to call it coming out of the closet because that's what it feels like being a black and conservative.
	Yeah, no kidding.
	Yeah, so when we made the decision to come out, initially we was being very safe with our politics.
	I remember our very first video we did was about the kid in Whataburger down in Texas who got assaulted by the Latino.
	He took his hat.
	So we did a video on that.
	That was the very first political post we did, Dennis.
	And for the most part, when we did that video, we came in really neutral.
	We could see it in the video.
	No one should ever be assaulted or threatened just for wearing a hat.
	Yeah, just for wearing a MAGA hat.
	And you know, we put that video up on Instagram.
	And I would say the first hour, we lost 15,000 followers.
	Wow.
	It's still off the table, Dennis.
	Yeah, and which really upset us because we thought we came in neutral.
	So it's like, man, we got a bunch of stupid liberals watching us.
	So going forward, we're like, I don't want these people following me anymore.
	So we started doing a bunch of Republican, you know, conservative posts telling everybody we're conserving that we're a Trump supporter.
	And we started delving into politics because...
	When you turn on the TV, you go to Twitter, you go to YouTube, it's something always new to talk about.
	It's never a dull day when it comes to politics.
	Unfortunately.
	You know, it's a curse.
	It's a Chinese curse.
	May you live in interesting times.
	Very interesting times.
	It seems like the left care more about China than America itself.
	And it feels like America, for the most part, not on the right, but on the left, everything is regressing.
	I mean, you look in our future, and you look at the civil rights era, What black people had to endure, the whole civil rights segregation, Jim Crow.
	It looks like we're going back to those days.
	It's like people on the left, they want to be segregated.
	It's all about being black.
	Isn't that something?
	They want to tell black conservatives that they're a sellout to their race.
	And it doesn't make a lot of sense.
	It's like everybody, when it comes to...
	Doing whatever you want to do in life.
	It has nothing to do with your skin color.
	Everybody's an individual.
	We're never going to agree on everything.
	That is exactly right.
	Bless you.
	Skin color doesn't matter.
	Everybody should be able to express their thoughts.
	God bless you.
	That is exactly the point.
	So the question is, do you feel that you, and you're not alone, thank God, there are quite a number of popular black podcasters now.
	Who have said that the left is the enemy of America and of blacks.
	Do you think you are on the tip of an iceberg in black life?
	So to speak.
	You know, we're like, I would say we are the tip of the iceberg, you know, because a lot of black people, I think they're solid.
	You don't really know how big the iceberg is until you look into the water, you know.
	So you think on Election Day there will be a movement in the black population?
	Well, I think so.
	I think typically, right, 90% of the vote always goes black, black vote goes Democrat, right?
	Right.
	I'm thinking it's going to swing to about 85%.
	It might be more than 90, by the way.
	It might be more than 90. I've got to check on that.
	So you think, but in any event, you think there might be a 5% gain?
	Yeah, which would be huge.
	Yeah, because Trump, he actually won the electoral without the black vote.
	Very, very little black support.
	So if we could swing in the black population, if you get an extra 5 or 10%, it would be a total blowout.
	Yeah.
	Well, what do you think your reach, the popularity of your podcasts, is that true for the black America as well?
	Are they watching you?
	I don't know.
	They're not watching us.
	I would say, Dennis, I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm sure we've changed a lot of black minds, but black culture is so strong.
	For anybody to make a huge impact with that audience would be an act of God.
	I would say our biggest impact has been with white liberals.
	Because I find that the toughest thing that we found with black liberals is they're not even willing to listen.
	That's correct.
	They're emotional.
	It's like they owe the Democrat Party their vote.
	A sad thing is they really don't know their history.
	I mean, from the day I can remember when my mom and my dad raised me, they told me to always vote Democrat.
	I mean, I'm six, seven, eight, nine years old.
	They would tell us the extreme difference between Democrats and Republicans.
	I was taught from a very young age that I never vote Republican because Republicans were racist.
	My mom told me that.
	My mom, she actually went through Jim Crow, segregation, all that.
	She had no idea.
	My mama didn't know nothing about politics.
	She had no idea that was Democrats.
	So when I continued to grow up, I was being...
	I remember my older brother, he's a retired Army, and he was Republican.
	And he was starting to get into my ear, and I started listening to Larry Elder.
	He was one of the very first conservatives I came across on YouTube, and he was black, and he really opened my mind.
	And then from there, I found Ben Shapiro and other conservatives.
	And when you sit down and you listen to both the left and the right, everything on the right, it just makes plain common sense.
	That's right.
	Everything on the left is a rationalization.
	It's an excuse.
	It's a victimization of people.
	Yeah, liberalism is nothing more than self-victimization.
	That's all it is.
	So tell me, do you think that there is some sort of warmth, you know, a fuzzy feeling if you think you're a victim?
	.
	It's easy to claim.
	I speak from experience.
	I think anybody that's victimized that stuff, it's easier to victimize yourself than to look in the mirror and see that.
	You guys are great.
	Hold on there.
	The Hodge twins.
	You should watch them.
	They're funny, and you see, they make, oh God, they understand.
	It's such a joy.
	They understand.
	I'll explain why I'm saying that, and it's up.

	Pat, you're on the Larry Elder Show.
	Thank you so much for calling.
	It seems to me during the Democratic primary, there was a lot of talk about not only taxing the wealthy, but something called the wealth tax.
	And it was my understanding that they were taxing the wealth that you had from your savings, from your assets, from your house, that kind of thing.
	That's right.
	At 10% a year, at every year.
	Every year.
	A state tax that goes every year.
	Now, I haven't heard anything about that.
	Can you tell me what that is and if they are still trying to promote that tax?
	Because I think us seniors with some savings would probably not be happy about that.
	Well, you're absolutely right.
	And certainly that did come up during the campaign.
	I will tell you this.
	The lawmakers here in the state of California are absolutely proposing a wealth tax.
	They want to increase the state income tax from the highest in the nation, 13.3% to 16%.

	So in the unlikely event that the governor vetoed such a tax, there are enough lawmakers in both chambers to override the veto.
	So, do I believe that if these guys get in charge, there will be something like a wealth tax?
	I certainly believe that, because they believe that rich people don't pay enough.
	The average Democrat believes rich people don't pay very much in taxes, even though the top 1% pay 39, almost 40% of all the federal income taxes.

	If you kill him, I'm telling you, I'll fire your ass.
	Hey, Joe, he's got like a, what did he say?
	He got a shotgun, right?
	He said, you don't have to shoot nobody.
	Just take it and shoot up in the air.
	Scare him away.
	Yeah, don't kill the criminals about to kill you.
	Kill somebody just walking down the street.
	All right, Joe, so you in your house.
	A guy's coming, you got that shotgun, you're just gonna shoot it up in the air.
	Hey, get back!
	Boo!
	Ah!
	Kill your neighbor upstairs.
	But don't kill the camera.
	Look, man.
	When, okay, look here.
	Alright, you're listening to the Hodge Twins, who I have on the line right now.
	They're extremely popular.
	A YouTube channel, one and a half million subscribers.
	That's a lot of subscribers.
	And it's Keith and Kevin, the brothers or twins.
	So, yes, I have a lot of questions still.
	I want to get back to the victim thing.
	Yeah.
	One of you were saying, and it's so critical, it is a lot easier to believe you're a victim than to look in the mirror.
	Yeah, it's easier to blame somebody else for your inadequacies than to look in the mirror and...
	It speaks to the situation yourself.
	Because whenever you fail at something, Dennis, it's not failure.
	It's an opportunity for you to learn from that.
	That's how all successful people are.
	They fail, and they learn from their failures.
	I think a lot of people on the left, they make a horrible decision.
	They fail at something.
	They blame somebody else.
	One of the biggest judgments to the black community is identity politics.
	I mean, me being a military, I was being...
	Working in five companies all life, from every black person I've ever known, man, they always had this thing with other people being racist when they don't even know that person personally.
	Like, for example, when I went to school and I got a degree in accounting, once I got that degree, Dennis, I went to, like, I want to say, like, 15 interviews.
	No one ever called me back.
	I fell in that whole victim of sex, oh, it's got to be because I'm black.
	It's got to be.
	So, you know what I did, Dennis?
	I said, you know what?
	What I'm going to do going forward when I get another interview, I took all those questions that they were asking me during the interviews.
	I'm going to go ahead and perfect my answer for every question they asked me, and my next interview, I'm going to knock that sock off.
	I'm going to smile.
	I'm going to improve my interviewing skills.
	So the very next job interview, I put myself like a week.
	And every interview I went to ask them the same question, but I didn't have a good, solid answer for them.
	So my next interview, I answered every question.
	I was very articulate.
	I gave them great answers.
	And I got the job.
	After 15 rejections.
	After 15 rejections.
	I did it very easily.
	By the way, did you wear a suit and tie to the last one?
	I wore a suit and tie to all of them.
	Okay, just checking, because you guys do not wear a suit and tie on your podcast.
	Right, right, right.
	We're pretty laid back on that podcast.
	Yeah, I was going to say, right, if you showed up in one of those t-shirts, that might have been one of the reasons, but all right, now it's clear to me.
	Okay, that's fair.
	So, the great challenge...
	Is to get that message to more blacks.
	You're hurting your lives by buying this victim mentality.
	Yeah.
	But, you know, Hollywood and our culture, our musicians, our celebrities, our super rights, man, they got their hooks so deep into black people, you can't even talk to them.
	They're so mentally enslaved, they don't even know they got shackles on them.
	I try to talk to black, but no, I'm not going to dance with a white man.
	You sound like a white person.
	I'm saying, no, man, I'm just being clear.
	Everything's just not about being black and African.
	We all are just people with the same likes, the same wants, the same dreams in America.
	Drop all that pro-black, pro-Africa.
	I said, man, you're just an American.
	Nothing more than that.
	You're American just like everybody else.
	That's right.
	That's the dream, and that's what I believe.
	That's exactly right.
	I am in the, let's see, I'm in the second toughest group to crack.
	I'm a Jewish conservative.
	So, whereas you got 90% of the vote Democrat, I only have 70%.
	Jews vote 70%.
	I start off with a little advantage when I speak to Jews, but the truth is, the left-wing Jew will turn me off just as the left-wing black will turn you off.
	Right.
	It's sad, really.
	I mean, our former government in America is more of a Republican form of government because no democracy can ever survive because of, you know...
	It's mob mentality.
	That's right.
	Yes.
	You see it on the left.
	You see what these riots are.
	That's total.
	That's a pure democracy right there.
	It's mob mentality.
	Everything's based on the whim.
	There's no logic.
	It's all emotion.
	Yeah, just imagine, Dennis, if we didn't have the Electoral College.
	We would never have a Republican president.
	That's right.
	Never.
	That's right.
	And nobody would campaign in Wisconsin or Michigan or Ohio.
	It would be irrelevant.
	They'd just get Los Angeles and New York and go home.
	Yeah, yeah.
	And Philadelphia, I guess.
	By the way, you guys are living in Vegas.
	Vegas is hurting, isn't it?
	Yeah, it's the highest unemployment in the country.
	Yeah, because the majority of the economy out here is tourism.
	Hotels.
	Exactly.
	And people are still not coming?
	It's starting to open up a little bit.
	I mean, the governor out here, Sisolak, he just opened up the casinos about a week ago.
	I think the churches are still closed out here.
	I mean, what's really weird to me about this whole pandemic is the left always preaches about follow the science.
	The science is pretty clear now.
	If you're under 50 and you're in good health, This virus has very little effect.
	That's right, my man.
	Listen, I gotta say goodbye, but I'd love to do this again.
	Your treasure's in American life.
	I just want you to know that.
	Thank you, Dennis.
	Thank you.
	You're very welcome.
	The Hodge twins, and there's a link to them.
	You can go straight to them, or there's a link.
	They're very funny and obviously very insightful.

	Trending now on the Larry Alder Show.
	The indoctrination of the American voter has been going on for a very, very long period of time.
	And we as Republicans, we as believers in liberty, we as conservatives should have pushed back a lot sooner.
	And we need to push back harder.
	That's why I made the Uncle Tom movie, because we also have to fight this battle at the cultural level too.
	Melissa, thank you so much for that.
	This is a crucial election.
	I'll tell you why.
	These guys get in charge.
	By these guys, I'm talking about Democrats, of course.
	Assume they take the presidency.
	Let's assume they take the Senate retaining control of the House.
	They're going to immediately get rid of the filibuster so that they can pass any budget they want on a simple majority vote.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Washington, D.C. as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to vote on whether or not to admit Puerto Rico as a state.
	That gives them two more senators.
	They're going to push for a commission to study reparations.
	They're going to raise taxes.
	They're going to repeal the Trump tax cuts.
	And those tax cuts, 80% of the benefits went through the non-top 1%.
	They're going to push for the legalization of the illegal aliens who are here.
	Amnesty.
	And believe me, the number of illegal aliens in America is not 11 million.
	That's a number that they all cite.
	One study by a professor from Yale, so therefore you know it must be legitimate, puts a number at between 20 and 25 million illegal aliens.
	That would change our voting electorate forever.
	That's exactly why the Democrats want to do it.
	Can you imagine if 11 to 20 million illegal aliens...
	turn citizens turn voters pull the lever for the republican party we wouldn't even be having this discussion keep up with what's trending subscribe on youtube today trending now on the mike delaguer show here was what the president pointed out he wants any this is the facts this is the fact
	Democrats are blocking the last relief package that Republicans put on the table and had the backing of the White House.
	Over a month ago, Democrats filibustered any discussion on an eventual passage of a $300 billion package.
	$1,200 to desperate Americans.
	$400 a week unemployment.
	The President broke it down last night beautifully.
	The problem you have is Nancy Pelosi.
	She couldn't care less about the worker.
	She couldn't care less about Our people, and we should have a stimulus, and I want a stimulus.
	The Republicans will approve a stimulus.
	The problem is she doesn't want to do it because she thinks it's bad for her election.
	The fact is she's wrong because people know she's in our way.
	She's not approving it.
	She doesn't appreciate our people, and she doesn't appreciate at all our workers.
	Nancy Pelosi, we are ready to sign and pass stimulus, but she's got to approve it.
	You could hear the minor bird interrupting him.
	That's not a shock.
	I told one of my kids last night, I said, Dad, Susana Guthrie's terrible.
	Well, that's not a shock.
	You thought she was going to do a good job and be fair?

	So we have the New York Post article that I want to get right into, Biden's secret emails.
	Can you just tell us a little bit of background on how you were able to obtain these emails and build it out for us?
	So there is just the repairman.
	He repairs computers, specializes in Mac, somewhere in the area where the Bidens live.
	And about a year and a half ago, Hunter Biden, inebriated, he was somewhat drunk, came in with three devices to be repaired.
	The gentleman recognized him only when he came to the United States.

	There's an article in USA Today about how the terrible effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on opioid.
	It runs across the board, left to right.
	Everybody makes this mistake.
	They say the COVID pandemic.
	It's the lockdown, not the pandemic.
	This is the biggest misuse of language in America at this time.
	The pandemic is not killing jobs.
	It's not making people go to liquor and drugs.
	The lockdown is.
	God, the power of the media to lie to itself and to the society is infinite.
	Even this man, this man, his whole article is about the lockdown and he says it's the COVID pandemic.
	There was a pandemic in 1968-69.
	Hong Kong flew 100,000 Americans of all ages, not just primarily over 80. They didn't stop a thing.
	You know why?
	Nobody ever heard of an epidemiologist in 1968. They still didn't worship experts.
	They worshiped common sense and courage.
	The social isolation brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic is making this by a guy named Jim Wahlberg.
	Who himself had been an addict and his son died of opioid overdose.
	Is treating the opioid epidemic so much harder?
	So listen for some of the examples.
	Are you ready?
	The overdose deaths increased.
	This is just this year.
	Not even this year.
	First three months.
	Overdose deaths increased by about 10% in the first three months of 2020. And by the way, you know how many died in 2019?
	I want you to guess.
	How many people, Americans, you think died of opioid overuse?
	25,000.
	Should be a big number.
	72,000.
	72,000.
	That's a third of the number attributed to COVID. That's a third of COVID every year.
	And now 10% increase.
	It's another 7,000 folks.
	Thanks to the lockdown, which most Americans support.
	By the way, if Joe Biden wins, it's lockdown nationally.
	He said it.
	He said it.
	And if Trump wins, it's going to be more of an open society.
	Much more.
	Oh, but die hell.
	Oh, but Trump.
	Oh, is he rude.
	Oh, Trump.
	Oh, he lies.
	Oh, Trump.
	Oh, Trump.
	How about, oh, America.
	Oh, America.
	Oh, America.
	Since the pandemic began, more than 40 states have recorded increases in opioid-related deaths, according to the AMA. In a June survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 13% of U.S. adults said they had started or increased substance use to deal with the stress of COVID-19.
	Again, stupid thing.
	It's not his fault.
	They all do it.
	It's the stress of the lockdown.
	Change your language, folks.
	Don't use COVID. COVID is a disease.
	Lockdown is a choice.
	An incredibly stupid, vile, immoral choice at that.
	We shall return.
	turn you are listening to the Dennis Prager show trending now on the Mike Delegre show
	Like including what police officers he thinks should do when their life is in jeopardy and a dangerous bad guy, a dangerous person armed is charging a police officer.
	Sheriff Joe knows how to handle that.
	We can do this.
	You can ban chokeholds.
	But beyond that, you have to teach people how to de-escalate circumstances.
	De-escalate.
	So instead of anybody coming at you and the first thing you do is shoot to kill, you shoot them in the leg.
	There's ways you have to do more background checks in terms of whether or not the person coming in passes certain psychological tests.
	He just lost the entire law enforcement vote in America.
	Because anybody who is law enforcement, anybody who Loves law enforcement like a family member.
	Anybody who is a relative of law enforcement knows how asinine it is to say you shoot somebody charging at you instead of center mass to stop them.
	You shoot them in the leg.
	You clip them, right?
	Right, Uncle Joe?
	You clip them in the ankle.
	That's what you do when they're coming at you with a.357 Magnum.
	You shoot them in the leg, don't shoot them in the femoral artery.
	Shoot them in the fleshy part of their ankle, preferably on the left side, where there's a little...
	Maybe you could just get their big toe.
	Right, Mr. Law Enforcement Expert?

	Last night, would you explain to people why it is ominous, though not illegal, what Twitter and Facebook did?
	The New York Post broke a story about emails discovered that indicate that Hunter Biden, Joe Biden's son, set up a meeting with his father when his father was vice president and the officers from Burisma, the Ukrainian natural gas company that was paying the Ukrainian natural gas company that was paying Hunter Biden millions of dollars.
	Throughout all of impeachment, Joe Biden insisted he didn't know anything about Burisma, he wasn't involved, he didn't know what his son was doing.
	And so if this story is right, it means Joe Biden was lying, that he was...
	Very involved, and what he told the press and told everyone else was a flat-out lie.
	I don't know if the New York Post story is right or not.
	It seems to me that it raises some real questions that need to be answered.
	But what Twitter and Facebook did is they decided they didn't want anyone talking about it.
	So they banned anyone from linking to the story.
	So if you sent out a tweet that linked to the story and someone tried to click on the link, it came up with a page instead that's...
	Blocked you from the site and said this site contains dangerous information, which I guess it was dangerous for Joe Biden's political fortunes, but it was absurd, and they even took it a step further.
	The New York Post themselves were sending out tweets with their own story, as media outlets do.
	They blocked the New York Post.
	They prevented the New York Post from posting.
	The New York Post has the fourth highest circulation newspaper in the country.

	Um...
	The president, I was going to go to the president.
	He just finished.
	That's fine.
	The president has been the most open president in my lifetime.
	No close second.
	Exactly.
	He's been a terrific president except for his style in many instances.
	I agree.
	That's correct.
	What I've been reading to you now is so angering to me, you can tell I'm just so angry.
	I tell you, who is this crackpot epidemiologist who will probably be the chief guy under Biden?
	He's a crackpot.
	He's a fanatic, a nut, this epidemiologist.
	The one from Minnesota, yeah.
	There will be national mandating of masks, national mandating of lockdowns.
	Country will go crazy.
	The increase in unemployment, but my heart particularly breaks for all the people getting on drugs or increasing drugs or going back to drugs.
	And the statistics that I just read to you.
	The worst is being alone and is not having a job and not relating to other people.
	People and God are the solutions to addiction.
	You can't do it, generally speaking, you can't do it with only one of those.
	Addiction isn't something we beat alone.
	In today's USA Today, I certainly didn't find recovery alone.
	The disruption of 12-step addiction and addiction support groups during the COVID pandemic.
	See, you should say during the lockdown.
	It's useless.
	Has been devastating.
	Residential programs have shut their doors and much of the safety net is cut.
	I could cry.
	I know too much suffering that has resulted from this.
	Let's get this guy on.
	I'm really curious.
	I can't ask him.
	It's not right for me to ask him who he's going to vote for.
	but I really am curious we should put this it's the Mark, he works at the Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation.
	He's Jim Wahlberg.
	Alright, 1-8 Prager 776. Hmm, look at this.
	Georgette in Lancaster, California, not Pennsylvania.
	Hi, Lancaster.
	Hello.
	Hi.
	I'm a first-time caller.
	I'm 78 years old, and I became a Republican and voted for Trump and took a chance.
	I had never voted Republican before in my life.
	I am calling to say...
	These lockdowns, the worst part of it is like I used to go to the community senior center where that's where we had our socialization and lunch together and dancing and exercise.
	All of that got locked down.
	I'm a retired nurse.
	I know that these masks they never talk about can do more harm.
	People breeding their own carbon dioxide.
	My heart goes out to the workers that have to have this thing on for eight hours.
	I mean, when I have to put it on for a few minutes to go into the store, you know, it's miserable for me.
	And I just wanted to say I concur with everything you said, especially I'm more concerned about the fentanyl that should be number one.
	And then they're saying, oh, well, you know, get rid of ice, get rid of the police, and knock down the wall.
	It's absolutely insane, and you're absolutely right.
	Well, thank you, thank you.
	I know, I know.
	I know I'm right, not because it's me.
	Like the Hodge brothers said, it just makes sense.
	At some airport about a year ago.
	Meet this lanky, tall, good-looking guy, young guy, about 30. Comes over to me, Dennis Prager, I watch your PragerU stuff.
	I'm from Norway.
	And I was surprised.
	I didn't think I had a big following in Norway.
	Because I don't think Norway has a lot of conservatives.
	Big followings in other countries, but Norway is not known for young conservatives.
	So I said to him, I said, really?
	You know, you're Norwegian?
	Are you conservative?
	He said, I don't know if I'm conservative.
	I just believe in logic and common sense.
	That's what conservatism is, logic and common sense.
	We oppose the minimum wage increases because logic and common sense suggest that people will be hurt.
	Restaurants will close because they can't afford the rate.
	Remember, when the lowest paid guy gets 15, Then the next guy up has to go to 20, and that next one has to go to 30. Restaurants run as it is at a thin margin of profit.
	It's always documented that unemployment increases, generally speaking, with the higher minimum wage.
	And how stupid it is.
	They want a national minimum wage to the Democratic Party.
	So New York, with its extremely high standard of living, its costly standard of living, I should put it that way, it doesn't have a high standard of living, it has a costly standard of living.
	New York will have the same $15 minimum wage as Bismarck, North Dakota.
	Even though things are so much cheaper in Bismarck.
	So you could even less afford $15 an hour to a waiter than in Midtown Manhattan, although God knows what will be with Midtown Manhattan.
	It's quite something...
	Ezra in Jacksonville, Florida.
	Good afternoon, Dennis.
	Good afternoon.

	But don't voters have a right to know where you stand?
	They do have a right to know where they stand and I'll have a right to know where I stand before they vote.
	So you'll come out with a clear position before Election Day?
	Yes, depending on how they handle this.
	But look, what you should do is you got to make sure you vote.
	And vote for a senator who in fact reflects you.
	People are voting now.
	I've already voted.
	He makes that point repeatedly.
	If George had been a real moderate, he would have pointed out, Mr. Vice President, you always say people are already voting.
	So why don't those people deserve an answer right now?
	The answer is, he doesn't want to answer it.
	Because it's radical.
	He's going to say yes, and he's going to fundamentally change the United States.
	Court packing is an assault on everything.
	And you just understand, the radical left got Joe Biden to sign on to court packing.
	I don't know if there will be enough senators.
	We've got to hold the Republican Senate against the possibility that Joe Biden wins.
	I think it's a neck and neck.
	Three new polls came out this morning which tell you that.
	They're all North Carolina.
	In North Carolina, it is a tie between Biden and Trump, according to Emerson.
	In North Carolina, Cal Cunningham is allegedly one point ahead of Tom Tillis.
	I don't believe that after Cal Cunningham cheated on his wife and it has become a national news story and everyone in North Carolina knows about it.
	I don't believe that.
	I believe Tom Tillis is going to win.
	And it shows the governor up four, the Democratic governor up four over the Republican governor.
	It's within the margin of error in my view.
	So North Carolina, dead heat.
	I think Pennsylvania's a dead heat.
	I think Wisconsin's a dead heat.
	heat.
	I think this is a dead heat presidential election.
	Pat, you're on the Larry Elder Show.
	Thank you so much for calling.
	It seems to me during the Democratic primary, there was a lot of talk about not only taxing the wealthy, but something called the wealth tax.
	And it was my understanding that they were taxing the wealth that you had from your savings, from your assets, from your house, that kind of thing.
	That's right.
	At 10% a year, at every year.
	Every year.
	All right, my friend.
	All right.
	I didn't even do the L. All right.
	Ooh, I don't like that.
	I put myself in the punishment room when I do things like that.
	No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
	It's my own punishment room.
	Oh, no.
	I deserve that.
	All right, back to Jacksonville and Ezra.
	Take it away.
	Thank you, Dennis.
	The Hodge twins were so uplifting.
	Yes, indeed.
	I subscribed to their YouTube channel.
	Good.
	But then, your spirits were deflated quickly, thinking about the evil lockdown.
	So I want to lift your spirits.
	I just think it's brilliant that the Trump campaign is running spots on your program.
	Because even though, of course, I greatly admire and listen to Levin and all the others that you can name off, And they all do a great job.
	I think your audience is quite different from all of those because they're almost exclusively political.
	And you have so much to offer about life and morality.
	So we have to think about swing states and swing voters.
	And I think your audience is where the opportunity is.
	So I'm very encouraged to hear those.
	Well, good.
	I'm glad you are.
	I don't know all the ads that air on my show.
	I can't possibly.
	So I thank you and I'm glad.
	It's tough for me to swallow that it's even close.
	The utter and pure destructiveness of the Democratic Party, it is just a party of destruction.
	Corruption and destruction.
	That's all it is.
	That's all it is.
	There's nothing good about the Democratic Party.
	It's not a mixed bag.
	You like lockdowns?
	Vote Democrat.
	You like being scared?
	Vote Democrat.
	You like dividing Americans by color?
	Vote Democrat.
	The list is endless.
	You like teaching kids in elementary schools that America is a moral cesspool?
	vote Democrat.
	It will be very interesting to see what happens.
	Yeah, the Hodge twins were uplifting.
