	This column will be an example.
	You know, I'm reading Saad.
	What is God Saad's book?
	I had him on the show, and I'm reading his book now, halfway through.
	He's a professor of evolutionary psychology, I believe it is, in Canada.
	And it's about this subject.
	It's about the lies of the left, essentially.
	Which is very rare from a professor.
	And to the best of my knowledge, he's either atheist or agnostic.
	And he writes...
	I've got to get the actual line.
	I'm going to even buy the Kindle edition.
	So I'll have all three editions.
	And he says, essentially, what is particularly frightening about the left is that they believe their lies.
	Remember, I have battled so long with this.
	Do they believe Russian collusion, for example?
	Do they believe it?
	By the way, I think America's leading liar, the man who lies the most frequently in public, is Adam Schiff, who said this computer that Mayor Giuliani has is a Russian hoax.
	We'll be back.
	We're asking you to be as generous as you can by giving today so that Alliance Defending Freedom can continue to fight these lawsuits and be ready when your rights are threatened too.
	Give your gift now by visiting adflegal.org slash Prager.
	And thank you for joining the fight for free.
	Thank you.
	They do have a right to know where I 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 gotta make sure you vote.
	And vote for a senator who in fact thinks it 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, 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 backing.
	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.
	So North Carolina, dead heat.
	I think Pennsylvania's a dead heat.
	I think Wisconsin's a dead heat.
	I think this is a dead heat presidential election.

	Trending now on The Larry Elder Show.
	Pat is in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
	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?
	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?
	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.
	Yes, indeed, you all. you all.
	Dennis Prager here.
	I want to remind you about Dinesh D'Souza's latest film.
	They're all hits.
	He knows how to make films, and he has courage, and he has intelligence.
	Dinesh D'Souza's latest film is Trump Card.
	And if you want to know what is going on in the Democratic Party, this is the film to watch if you're going to see a movie about it.
	And you should see a movie about it.
	By the way, I think it's our obligation to support non-left films to begin with.
	Larry Elder's Uncle Tom, Adam Carolla and my film No Safe Spaces, and now to see Dinesh D'Souza's film, Trump Card.
	It's at SalemNow.com.
	And if you're looking for a DVD, you won't find it on Amazon because they're out of stock.
	But you can order your DVD today at SalemNow.com.
	The film is Trump Card.
	Yes, so I'm telling you about this Hartford Current editorial.
	This is a truly illuminating look.
	At how people on the left think of those of us who do not vote left.
	President Trump's views on race, this is their chief, this is their editorial on behalf of Biden.
	It has almost nothing to do with Biden.
	President Trump's views on race and his willingness to exploit deep-rooted divisions are well documented.
	First of all, we don't have deep-rooted divisions.
	To the extent that we do have deep-rooted divisions, they are overwhelmingly creatures of the left.
	Most Americans get along fine with most Americans.
	Okay?
	Until the left came along and created a racial tension, there was minimal racial tension in this country.
	Barack Obama played a significant role, by the way, in creating that tension.
	I said when he left office, he was the worst president of my lifetime, and the more I know about him, the more I affirm that judgment.
	President Trump's views on race and his willingness to exploit deep-rooted divisions are well documented.
	So here they're going to document them.
	He jump-started his 2016 campaign by equating Mexicans with rapists and drug dealers.
	Okay, he said they send rapists and drug dealers across the border.
	He overly generalized.
	I totally agree.
	I thought it was a foolish comment.
	Foolish comments and creating racial divisions are not the same thing.
	It was an over-the-top comment.
	There are rapists and there are drug dealers across the border.
	That is not the typical Mexican.
	99% of Americans are well aware of that.
	I know they think we're all stupid and unenlightened because we're not on the left, but we're not.
	They're stupid and unenlightened because they are on the left.
	Years ago, I came up with a presentation.
	This is proof of how positively Americans look at Mexicans and other Central Americans.
	Where I live, it's not true where many of you live, but in warm climates you have this in particular.
	You will have groups of Mexicans, young Mexican men, I guess Guatemalan and El Salvadoran as well, at some street corner in some part of the city, in my case Los Angeles, And they are there to do day labor.
	They are invariably picked up by a woman, alone in her SUV or car.
	Now, is that not an amazing statement of how much the Americans who are white trust these Hispanic workers?
	Have we heard once of a case of rape?
	I have even said a white woman is more likely to pick up a bunch of Hispanic men than a bunch of white men in terms of fear of anything being done to her.
	I know this is an amazing thing to say, but Americans are actually better than the left believes they are.
	They believe they are better than the rest of Americans.
	Okay, how else has he exploited deep-rooted divisions?
	There are no deep-rooted divisions between white Americans and Hispanic Americans.
	You know what there is?
	Deep-rooted romance.
	What is it?
	40% of Hispanics in the first generation intermarry almost always with the white.
	Deep-rooted divisions.
	They live in a make-believe world, people on the left.
	They do.
	It's a make-believe world.
	They construct a vision, and that's what they believe is the reality.
	Next, when racist violence erupted at a Charlottesville, Virginia, white supremacist rally, Trump said there were very fine people on both sides.
	All right, they're just continuing the Charlottesville lie.
	He was talking about the people...
	On the statues demonstration, not Nazis.
	He said the very next day at the press conference, I condemn the Nazis and the KKK and the racists.
	See the preview video.
	Steve Cortez, formerly of CNN, now with the Trump campaign.
	He gives the video on the Charlottesville lie.
	It's got a huge number of views.
	Next example, and most recently when asked during a debate with Biden to denounce white nationalism, was white nationalism.
	Do you know a white nationalist?
	No, I'm serious.
	Have you ever met one?
	Why haven't I? Well, there's the other white here.
	Sean, have you ever met a white nationalist?
	Have you ever met a Washington Nationals fan?
	Ah, I got him!
	He has.
	So is a Washington Nationalist fan a white nationalist?
	Is a white Washington Nationalist fan a white nationalist?
	It's a toughie.
	This is a toughie.
	The Talmud asked that question.
	In Tractate Yuma.
	Yes.
	Okay, Trump said it was time for the militaristic hate group, the Proud Boys.
	They're a militaristic hate group?
	These smears that the left throws out.
	Which is the group that's headed by a black guy?
	Is that the group?
	So this is a hate group against blacks headed by a black.
	We'll be back.
	I don't want to show by the way.
	Sorry?
	You want to have a tie?
	The black.
	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 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, We 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.
	Turn citizens, turn voters, pull the lever for the Republican Party.

	Trending now on the Mike Gallagher Show. - Here was what the president pointed out.
	He wants and he, this is the facts.
	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.

	Reading to you, the Hartford Current Editorial.
	Okay.
	So I read for you a lot of the...
	they make up stuff.
	White nationalism.
	Like it's a big threat in the country?
	White nationalism?
	Are white nationalists burning down buildings?
	Burning police cars?
	Throwing Molotov cocktails on occasion?
	Setting fires?
	Looting?
	Is this being done by white nationalists?
	You understand the make-believe world of the left?
	We're supposed to believe that right fringe groups are the threat.
	As Alan Dershowitz, lifelong liberal, lifelong Democrat, Hillary Clinton supporter, Harvard Law School professor, said to me, and you'll see it in the film No Safe Spaces, said to me in his apartment in New York, as a liberal, as a Democrat, As an American, as a Jew, I fear the left more than the right.
	That's exactly right.
	The day you know that, you can stay a liberal.
	At Harvard, Stanford, NYU, Hebrew University, you name it.
	I have never met a group of less courageous people in my whole life than tenured Harvard and tenured other professors.
	They are so terrified of their own shadow.
	They don't want to do anything that upsets a student.
	They want their student evaluations to be very, very high.
	They want to be admitted to all the academic societies and clubs.
	I have been blackballed from numerous of these organizations.
	I was the most highly regarded classroom teacher for years at Harvard until I started making these points and then groups of students attacked my ratings.
	They would give me zero, zero, zero, zero in order to punish me for expressing Yeah.
	There are no cowards like academic cowards.
	But it's not true.
	There's no more cowardly group than college presidents, deans, and professors.
	That's true.
	But they are not the most.
	There are a lot of people tied for that.
	A lot of doctors today are tied for that.
	Teachers.
	Cowardice is the human norm.
	Courage is the aberration.
	Let me ask you a question.
	If you have intellectual honesty, please answer it for yourself.
	Does it take more courage to express left-wing or right-wing views anywhere, almost anywhere in America?
	In your office?
	As a teacher?
	As a doctor?
	In any professional arena.
	Which does it take more courage?
	To say America is racist or America is not racist?
	It takes courage to say America is not racist.
	Do you realize that?
	In other words, it takes courage to tell the truth.
	Next, on the Hartford Courant editorial, his candidacy raises a question.
	Can you really support Trump without supporting the racism that permeates his administration?
	There's racism that permeates...
	See, this is what I mean.
	They believe their lies as they write this.
	The economy...
	Then they go into history.
	This is what they always do.
	Like, this is what it is today.
	The economy of the southern states and the nation as a whole...
	Was dependent on enslaved people.
	That's not true.
	The economy of the South was.
	This is why it was so much poorer than the North, by the way.
	That's a lie.
	That's another lie in the Hartford Courant editorial.
	And the framers decided that holding the new nation together was more important than taking a stand on slavery.
	We continue with the Hartford Current Editorial.

	They sell the three-week quick start for just $19.95 to anyone struggling from pain.
	Neck, shoulder, back, hip, or knee pain.
	$19.95.
	That's cool.

	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.
	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.

	The Hartford Courant editorial.
	And this gives you an idea of how people on the left think, how they lie, how they live in a make-believe world, how they defame the United States for no rational reason.
	The economy of the southern states and the nation as a whole was dependent on slave people.
	Okay, next.
	For more than two centuries, we've wrestled with the consequences of that decision.
	In other words, to allow slavery.
	Right?
	Which, by the way, was universal.
	Every country had to wrestle with that.
	Then in 2008, the tide seemed to turn.
	Barack Obama was elected president.
	The tide didn't turn before Barack Obama was elected.
	This is what Michelle Obama said.
	The first time in my life I'm proud to be an American.
	Remember that?
	That's when it turned.
	You were all despicable racists until Baracko.
	So why did despicable racists vote for him?
	I suspect the average white American is among the least racist creatures ever developed in history.
	.
	Thank you.
	The moment was savored and celebrated had we finally arrived at a post-racial America where, in the words of Dr. King, people were judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of the character.
	Turns out we hadn't.
	While many were celebrating, others were seething.
	Do you know anybody who was seething at Obama's election because he was black?
	I don't know anybody who was seething even politically.
	People didn't support him.
	I didn't vote for him.
	I announced the day he was elected.
	He is my president.
	I wish him well.
	The day he was elected in 2008, that's what I announced.
	And I was happy that America elected a black president.
	I thought it was a good thing.
	Huh?
	Everybody did, exactly.
	Seething.
	This is complete projection.
	They seethe when we win.
	And one person who understood that well was Donald Trump, who jumped in early with his birther claims that called into question Obama's citizenship.
	The campaign was dismissed by many as ridiculous, but it sent a clear signal to those who'd been disaffected by the election of a black president.
	They had a champion in Donald Trump.
	What does it have to do with his being black?
	Why isn't that a leftist lie?
	I don't know, I'm asking a question.
	The man, I never said a word about Barack Obama's citizenship.
	Not one word the entire time he was president.
	And before he was president.
	I totally, it was not an issue that perturbed me.
	But it wasn't a ridiculous question based on I don't know a lot about it, because I've never pursued it, but the documents that have generally been offered, I don't believe are offered quite as clearly in the case of Barack Obama.
	I'm not suggesting he's not an American citizen.
	I never suggested it then.
	I had no interest in it then.
	I have no interest in it now.
	But it wasn't necessarily racist.
	You see, this is it.
	That's their evidence.
	For Donald Trump being a racist?
	Because of the birther, as they call it, movement?
	The difference now in 2020 is that Donald Trump doesn't just exploit racism, he revels in it.
	What are they talking about?
	The guy who's done more for blacks, who has allowed blacks out of prison, who has championed their economic growth.
	If Donald Trump is black's biggest enemy, they have no enemies.
	Trump wears his whiteness like a badge of honor.
	Isn't that amazing?
	This is how the left thinks.
	That's why people say, oh, can we unify the country?
	We don't think like one another.
	We don't have the same values.
	We don't have the same goals.
	We have nothing in common except biology.
	I wish it weren't true.
	I have a lot in common with the liberal.
	I have nothing in common with the leftist.
	He wears his whiteness like a badge of honor and plays his affinity for groups like the Proud Boys and other agents of racial hatred.
	Are the Proud Boys an agent of racial hatred?
	Is that a dishonest claim?
	They welcome members of every race.
	Trump doesn't simply mine the racial divide for political advantage.
	He treats it like a world view to be celebrated and adored.
	That's why you wrote this as the most despicable editorial.
	Before Floyd's killing, George Floyd's killing, black people were seized by force, sold at auction, ripped from their families, lynched, raped, and told they couldn't drink from the same fountain as white people.
	Yes, that's true.
	It's like a hundred years ago.
	Not all of it.
	Some of it is more recent.
	Seized by force, sold at auction, ripped from families, lynched, and raped.
	That was a long time ago.
	Why is it even raised?
	That's why you can't support Trump without supporting the racism that forms the bedrock of his political persona.
	This is all a lie, do you understand?
	The entire editorial is a lie.
	The politics of grievance, the backbone of the Trump presidency, no, the politics of grievance is the backbone of leftism.
	I'm a woman, I'm oppressed, I'm a black, I'm oppressed, I'm a gay, I'm oppressed, I'm a Hispanic, I'm oppressed.
	Politics of grievance, the backbone of the Trump presidency, is built on the notion that if there is something wrong in your life, there's someone to blame for it.
	This is the most clear case of projection that I have ever presented to you, my listeners.
	Instead of grappling with your issues in life, unless you're a white Christian male, you can blame it.
	On white Christian males.
	That's what the left does.

	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...
	Let's say somebody finds material, private material on me.
	They steal it and they put it all over the web.
	You'd say, yeah, that's wrong.
	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.
	You need no more proof than this.

	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.
	The problem with Roe versus Wade is not even the issue of abortion.
	Abortion does stop a beating heart and abortion does terminate a human life.
	The Roe vs.

	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	That's why, yeah, let's see there, the racism.
	Racism against black people deeply embedded in our history.
	It is painfully easy to evoke that hatred when seeking a target for your anger.
	Trump is counting on that anger to get him elected again.
	That's it.
	We're deplorables, my friends.
	I don't have a racist bone in my body.
	It is as easy as saying to you that I'm tall.
	It is built into me.
	That is just the way it is.
	Racism is evil and stupid.
	I'm neither evil nor stupid.
	I think the heart for current is evil and stupid.
	You may not think of yourself as promoting racism if you vote for Trump.

	Hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	I need your help.
	I graduated from a private Catholic liberal arts college in central Minnesota, St. John's.
	About 30 years ago, my wife went to the all-female school, St. Ben's, about three miles down the road, and we later married.
	We loved our education and our school so much that we were willing to send our youngest son, Benedict, to St. John's last year as a freshman.
	And I woke up yesterday morning to see that St. John's has invited Ibram X. Kendi to speak this week to the student body.
	And other than calling the presidents of both colleges, which I did, you always tell us to fight.
	How do I fight?
	Wow.
	I'm speechless.
	If you could see this campus, Dennis, it is the most beautiful, Catholic, solemn, it's just beautiful.
	And these kids are bringing this...
	Well, I'll tell you how to fight.
	Fight to bring someone like me to speak.
	Or Candace Owens or Larry Elder.
	Well, that would be great.
	Or Ben Shapiro, any of you guys would be wonderful.
	I mentioned Candace and Larry because it may be more effective.
	They're black.
	Yes, exactly.
	That's the only way to do it.
	That any campus would invite that crackpot?
	The man's a crackpot.
	He's just a hate-filled crackpot.

	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 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.
	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 or 20 million illegal aliens...

	$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.

	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.
	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 closet.
	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.

	I'm Dennis Prager, and I'm going to go to my guest, Peter Schweizer, author of Profiles in Corruption, which I read, Abuses of Power by America's Progressive Elite.
	They are even more corrupt than I thought after reading your book, Peter Schweizer.
	Welcome to my show.
	Dennis, always great to be with you.
	Thanks for having me.
	Always?
	Always.
	Always.
	Wow.
	100%.
	Yeah, that's great.
	Hey, do you live in Tallahassee?
	I do, yes.
	I lived in Washington, D.C. for years, and when I started writing about corruption in Washington, D.C., I figured I'd probably better leave town, and my work is much more appreciated down here than it is inside the Beltway.
	How do you like Tallahassee?
	I love it.
	I love it.
	It's a college town of Florida State University.
	It's the state capital, not far from the beach.
	It's Florida with a little bit of a mix of the American South.
	So I enjoy it very much.
	So who's moving to Florida now?
	I think lots of people are.
	The reports we hear is a lot of people from New York and New Jersey are heading to South Florida.
	And I think that, you know, people from Illinois are moving to the western part of the Florida, you know, boot, as it were.
	So, yes, there's a lot of influx, and generally they're very, very welcome.
	People always ask them, you know, if you come down here, don't necessarily vote for the things you voted for in New York, New Jersey, and Illinois down here because we like the way the state is right now.
	Thank you very much.
	Why isn't that argument dispositive?
	You fled a place run by the values you want now to reign in Florida.
	How do they answer that?
	It's a great question.
	I think, you know, it seems strange because these are, you know, professionals oftentimes and smart.
	They just don't seem to always draw the connection between the decisions that have been made in Sacramento or Albany.
	With the state of New York or the state of California.
	So it's almost as if they believe that the transformation in their state from becoming high tax, expensive, regulated, was somehow by osmosis, not by a series of decisions that people made.
	And I think it's important to remind them of that.
	So right now, how would you assess the politics of the refugee to Florida?
	You know, it's hard to say.
	I would say many of them are frustrated with how expensive their life is in New York and elsewhere, that the taxes are high.
	I think also the role of the oppressive COVID lockdowns.
	I think New York has been much more aggressive on this than most states.
	So I think all of that generally leads them to be a little bit more libertarian in their thinking.
	But we'll see.
	I mean, I grew up in Seattle, Washington, and I went to California in the 1980s and visited.
	It was generally a center-right state and changed quite dramatically.
	So it can happen anywhere, Texas, Florida.
	Just people need to make good choices and really think through the implications.
	I didn't mean to ask you this, but I have great respect for your knowledge and wisdom.
	It's a big deal for me, because wisdom is rare.
	So, you don't even have to make a prediction.
	I don't make a prediction, but do you have any sense of the election?
	I will tell you...
	I would probably be the worst person to ask about that.
	I believed Hillary Clinton was going to win in 2016. We're brothers with different mothers.
	That's exactly what I believed.
	And I thought Mitt Romney was going to win in 2012. So I've got a terrible record.
	I've got a terrible record.
	You're with me.
	Okay, fine.
	It's a perfectly legit answer.
	So I want you to know...
	Your book prepared me for the revelations with regard to the Biden family.
	I mean, I really learned a lot from your book, including about Kamala Harris, who's totally under the radar, which is a phenomenon.
	But just talking about the Biden family, why is it not a normative, widespread question?
	How does a man who spends his entire life in politics get so wealthy?
	And his family?
	It's a great question.
	And people ask that all the time as it relates to the Bidens and other people.
	And it's a completely, totally legitimate question.
	And in the case of the Bidens, you know, I talk about this in the book, they've really mastered what I call offshoring corruption.
	So if you look at Joe Biden's financial disclosures when he was in office up through the vice presidency, generally it showed that he had no assets.
	And that's because the deals that the Biden family did did not involve Joe because they'd have to be disclosed, they'd be visible, it might break the law.
	So the deals are done with family members.
	So by offshoring, I mean...
	If people wanted favors from Joe Biden, they would do deals with his kids.
	They would do deals with his brothers.
	And that became the pattern.
	And so what you see with the Bidens is this incredible system where you have five family members.
	I mean, a lot of people focus on Hunter, and I think Hunter is the most egregious.
	But this is not a Hunter problem.
	This is a Biden problem because his two brothers, his sister, his daughter, and her husband, All engaged in getting sweetheart deals and favors from Joe Biden.
	And I think the other thing that makes this important to focus on with the Bidens is, you know, we're not talking about a congressman who's trying to get a road-paving contract for his nephew from the Federal Highway Fund.
	I mean, that stuff goes on, and that stuff's bad.
	We're talking about globalized graft and corruption involving Actors around the world who don't particularly have the interest of the United States at heart.
	We're talking about the Chinese government.
	We're talking about Russian oligarchs.
	We're talking about corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs.
	So the Biden corruption, while corruption is widespread in Washington, D.C., is unique because of how broad it is.
	You've got five family members, but also the depth, the fact that their business partners are...
	All right, so the money is coming from foreign governments largely or foreign businesses?
	Both, yes.
	You have the Chinese government has done a series of deals with Hunter Biden.
	We also now know that James Biden, his brother, was directly involved with a Chinese energy company called CEFC, which is very close to the People's Liberation Army, the Chinese military.
	And then you have corrupt oligarchs.
	You have Yelena Baturina, who is the ex-wife of the mayor of Moscow, who in WikiLeaks, if you go look her up in the WikiLeaks documents on the State Department tables, you find out that the State Department since 2010 has regarded her as joined at the hip with Russian organized crime.
	This is an example of the sort of foreign businessman.
	That Hunter Biden is doing deals with.
	He's not doing deals in Frankfurt, Germany, and Tokyo.
	He's doing deals in Moscow, in Beijing, in Ukraine.
	And that's what's really troubling about this, because it has implications for the foreign policy that Joe Biden carried out as Vice President.
	Okay, give an example of one of the implications.
	Well, I'll give you a direct one, and that relates to China.
	And I put out a 40-minute video called Riding the Dragon.
	You can find it for free on YouTube about Biden's relationship to China.
	And what you find is that Hunter Biden, while Joe Biden was vice president of the United States, secured a series of lucrative deals with the Chinese government that he had no qualifications getting.
	The Chinese government, for example, gave him, involved him in a $1.5 billion private equity deal despite the fact that Hunter Biden had no background in finance or in private equity and had no background in China.
	And this is the Chinese government doing that.
	Okay, so what I meant is you said it had implications for American foreign policy.
	What foreign policy ensued from that deal?
	If you look at Joe Biden's position on China, particularly beginning in 2013 when that deal was proposed, he has said repeatedly in interviews that China's not a threat, they're not a rival, they're friendly people.
	This is really...
	Hold on there, Peter.
	Hold on.
	His book is very important.
	I read it.
	What else can I say?
	Profiles in Corruption.
	Abuses of power by America's progressive elite.
	I had always walked around thinking I knew there was corruption in America.
	And nevertheless, I always thought that America had less of it than so many countries, and this was a big reason for our success.
	Well, you read this book and it's troubling.

	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 all allowing such surveillance and in this case cover up of corrupt behavior, etc. to be allowed to continue to occur without any Again, it was the people of the United States responding to these huge media platforms and

	I'm Dennis Prager.
	Peter Schweizer knows more about a sad subject, corruption in the American progressive elite, than anyone I know.
	Does that, by the way, it's an interesting question for me anyway.
	When you do all this research and know of all of this corruption, does it...
	Does it have a depressing effect on you?
	It's a great question, Dennis.
	I'm kind of an optimist by nature.
	Part of that is my faith.
	I mean, I understand the fallen nature of man.
	I distrust concentrated power.
	I guess the way that I've reconciled it is that I didn't create the corruption.
	I'm exposing it.
	So exposing something that needs to see the light of day would be grounds for maybe not celebration, but at least a sense of doing something that's important.
	So it can be depressing in a way, but I think that you need to expose it because this is what makes our country great.
	The fact that the American people care about these things, they care about corruption and cronyism, it's important to them because they expect and want their leaders to avoid it.
	You don't know this, but you said something, and I didn't interrupt you.
	I was tempted, but I didn't.
	Because, I don't know if you ever saw the Groucho Marx show, but...
	When the guest would say the magic word, the bird would come down with a $100 bill.
	You said the magic word when you said that human nature, I don't know, I don't remember the word you used, corrupt or whatever, you'd fallen...
	Fallen nature, the fallen nature of nature.
	Yes, the fallen nature, yes.
	This is the dividing line at the...
	If you dig and dig and dig to find the difference between left and right, that is the dividing line.
	We know what human nature is like.
	They don't.
	Therefore, we fear, as you put it, the concentration of power among very, very troubled-natured human beings.
	Why would I trust people with human nature with massive power?
	And that comes from, forgive me, just one more point, because you said another thing which brought another bird on the Groucho Marx show, about you're a man of faith.
	So am I. And we are not the identical faith.
	However, we both have the same basis, which is this understanding of human nature that religious Jews and Christians understand, and therefore have different politics.
	That's the whole point.
	Yes, I agree.
	I mean, the Judeo-Christian tradition teaches us that we should not trust people with concentrated power.
	We know that sometimes in history, you're at war, maybe President Lincoln needs added powers to preserve the republic, but in general, you do not want to concentrate power.
	And it really, you know, I have friends that are obviously on the political left, and You know, it doesn't make sense to me the fact that in some senses they're distrustful of power for certain people.
	So, for example, I have friends that were very troubled, and I shared some of those concerns about the fact that, you know, the National Security Agency and other entities were, you know, engaged in surveillance in the United States.
	That was a big issue during the Bush administration, you remember.
	I talk to those individuals now who are in favor of a government takeover in healthcare, and I ask them, seriously, you're worried about the government monitoring your communications, but you're not worried about the government having access to your entire medical history?
	And it's a paradox.
	I think that if you understand that concentrated power is something to be feared and to be concerned about, that leaders It can be sacrificial at times, but they can also be enormously self-serving.
	You are suspicious of concentrations of power, and that, I think, is the bottom line for me when it comes to corruption.
	The ultimate remedy for corruption, you're not going to find corrupt, free people to lead us in every capacity.
	What you can do is make sure that we have a balance of power, a check of power, divided power.
	In the sense of the branches of government and don't allow our leaders to have concentrated power.
	And when you look at the political parties today, there's a huge divide on that question, whether government should be given more authority in our lives or less.
	When they say Trump is a dictator, I wrote in my column, which comes out as it happens, on Tuesdays.
	So my column is out today and it's a list of left-wing lies in which the society is drowning.
	One is Trump is a dictator.
	And I point out, it's almost inconceivable that a Republican or a conservative would be a dictator.
	Their whole platform is less government.
	That's exactly right.
	I mean, look, if you wanted to be a dictator as president of the United States, first thing you'd want to do is have government takeover of healthcare.
	Yes.
	Because then you could use the levers of government.
	To punish your enemies and help your friends.
	The other thing you'd want to have is the mass confiscation of firearms.
	I mean, throughout history, whether it's Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, or Mao, you don't want individuals owning...
	I mean, so just from a policy level, the notion that Trump is somehow a dictator makes absolutely no sense.
	I've got to get to the latest revelations with regard to the Biden family and, of course, the email server.
	So I'll keep you one if that's okay with you.
	I just want to remind everybody that Peter Schweizer's book, Profiles in Corruption, is compelling reading.
	And I read it.
	We'll do it.
	Maybe Kamala Harris another time.
	But before the break, I have one very quick question.
	What is the ratio of corruption on the left in politics to corruption on the right?
	Hard question to answer.
	I would say it's probably 65-35, but it takes different forms.
	Okay, all right.
	All right, back in a moment. back in a moment.

	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.
	Stop right there.
	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.
	So North Carolina, dead heat.
	I think Pennsylvania's a dead heat.
	I think Wisconsin's a dead heat.
	I think this is a dead heat presidential election.

	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's 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...
	All right, everybody. everybody.
	Dennis Prager here.
	Thank you.
	Peter Schweizer is a solid thinker as well as a living internet of data and information, and he is specialized right now in something that can bring down a society.
	I have written on this even in my Bible commentary.
	Corruption is the major reason the third world does not develop further.
	Not resources, not intelligence, not abilities.
	Corruption.
	And it doesn't sound like it's all that bad, and yet it ruins societies.
	So what you're doing is of extreme importance.
	Before I get to the latest Biden issue with the computer, I want you to just develop for me, for a moment, when you said 65-35, corruption of left-wing politicians to corruption of right-wing politicians, what is the 35%?
	How does it manifest itself?
	Well, I think the reason I would say that it seems to be more prevalent among the left is that the left seems to be much more comfortable staying in government longer.
	You know, it's, after all, the aspiration a lot of them have.
	I mean, the pinnacle of success for them is to be in government service, whereas people that are center-right oftentimes, you know, feel like, well, I want to go into business or I want to do something in the private sector.
	So part of the reason I think there is this gap is because the longer that you stay in public office in government, the more likely you are to engage in corrupt behavior.
	One of the people that I've talked to over the years is Bobby Jindal, who is the governor of Louisiana and congressman from Louisiana.
	And Bobby told me, you know, when he first got to Washington as a congressman, he said, you know, everything was so dirty, the way things were done, and you noticed it.
	And after you stayed there for a while, it didn't seem quite so bad.
	And he sort of ended the conversation with a quip.
	He said, when you first get there, it's a cesspool, but you stay there for a while and it starts to feel like a hot tub.
	That's a great point.
	So just, are you prepared to give me, is there a right-wing equivalent to Joe Biden in terms of corruption?
	Well, I wrote a book called Secret Empires that came out in 2018, where we first talked about the Biden's relationship with China.
	And a Republican, it would not be an equivalent, but pretty darn close, would be Senator Mitch McConnell.
	His wife, Elaine Chao, who's the transportation secretary, her family enjoys enormous, let's say, commercial graces from the Chinese government.
	They own a shipping business.
	If the Chinese government decided tomorrow that they wanted to shut down that company, they could.
	And that is directly tied to the fact that he has political status.
	Now, it's a little different than the Bidens, because in the case of the McConnell-Chao family, they actually have an underlying legitimate business.
	They had a shipping company, but there's no question that they have benefited.
	From the good graces of Beijing, and that Mitch McConnell's attitude towards China has been decidedly less hawkish than others.
	In the case of the Bidens, of course, there really is no underlying legitimate business.
	Hunter Biden became partners with the Chinese when his dad became vice president, and he brings nothing to the table.
	But to me, that is an equivalent.
	You don't want to be doing commercial deals.
	With a foreign government, particularly if that foreign government is our rival, because they have you over the barrel, and they are going to lead you, I believe, to soften your critique of that government.
	What did we learn?
	What did you learn?
	learn that's a better question what did you learn with regard to the prosecutor that Biden bragged on camera having fired as a result of the revelations from the computer or did you learn nothing No, there was some very interesting emails the New York Post has reported on.
	I should say that I know as much as everybody else does.
	I don't have access to those emails.
	But what they have brought out dovetails completely with what we knew.
	So it has built to the foundation of What we had reported earlier.
	The new emails demonstrate a couple of things.
	One, that apparently Burisma executives got a private meeting with Joe Biden while he was Vice President of the United States.
	Yeah, that's huge.
	All right, hold on there, hold on.
	Because that means that Joe Biden lied repeatedly to the American people on a very big matter.

	When she posted a New York Post article, not just some crazy tweet, she posted a New York Post article, she was locked out of her Twitter account.
	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.
	One of them is kind of admitting maybe truth to the facts, but saying that the legitimacy of how it was obtained was wrong, and the other is saying they don't have proof that it is in fact true.
	Let's say somebody finds material, private material, on me.
	They steal it, and they put it all over the web.
	You'd say, yeah, that's wrong.
	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.
	you need no more proof than this.

	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, you know, 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.
	The problem with Roe versus Wade is not even the issue of abortion.
	Abortion does stop a beating heart and abortion does terminate a human life.
	The Roe vs.
	Wade overturned the state mandates.
	People did not vote for this.
	It was one of the most undemocratic decisions.
	Welcome back.
	Dennis Prager with Peter Schweizer, author of Profiles in Corruption, Abuse of Power by America's Progressive Elite.
	And you saw his intellectual honesty because I pushed him.
	What about Republicans?
	And he named and said that exists certainly there.
	But it is more prominent on the left because they're in power longer.
	Among other reasons.
	I think there are other reasons too, but that's not the issue right now.
	So we're talking about revelations from the computer.
	So I have a lot of questions.
	The first revelation is it is clear that contrary to what Joe Biden has assured the American people, He did meet with an official of Burisma.
	Is that correct?
	That's correct.
	This is a matter that Joe Biden has frankly lied about repeatedly.
	I mean, he has issued a blanket statement.
	He said it himself that I have never discussed or had contact with any business partners involving my family.
	We know that he met with a Chinese executive when he flew over on Air Force Two with his son in 2013. We know that he met with this Burisma official now, according to these emails.
	These are examples of how Joe Biden has tried to make this issue go away by issuing blanket statements, but now it's all tumbling down.
	And unfortunately for the American people, his response is basically to be on lockdown.
	He's not out answering questions.
	These are the sort of questions...
	That really you can provide simple answers to if you're prepared to be straightforward about it.
	So what is the official Biden response now?
	They call it a smear.
	Is that the official response?
	It is.
	It's very strange, Dennis.
	So these emails have been released.
	I certainly haven't been able to see them and look at them.
	But the Biden camp has not said that they're fake emails.
	They've not said that they're, you know, made up or that they're manufactured.
	Their only response has been that it's a smear.
	And, of course, the question is, can the truth actually be a smear?
	And so I think they have a real problem here because, yes, you can have a discussion about the Provence, about how did these emails get there, how did they get circulated, but at the end of the day, the question is whether they're truthful or not.
	And they apparently have conceded that it's been, you know, basically a week.
	They have not challenged...
	Well, I just want you to know, though, Adam Schiff...
	Whom I believe is the only pathological liar in the U.S. Congress.
	I very rarely use that word.
	He lies when he speaks.
	So his latest is that this is Russian disinformation.
	Well, you know, what the claim is is that these emails were somehow hacked by the Russians.
	Now, the Director of National Intelligence has come out, Mr. Ratcliffe, And so there's no evidence of that.
	But the larger issue is, the fundamental issue is, are these emails real?
	Notice that Adam Schiff's not saying that they're fake.
	He's not saying that they're inaccurate or made up.
	Well, what is disinformation if it's not fake?
	Well, that's what I mean.
	I mean, they're trying to create the impression.
	That these have somehow been manipulated, but the Biden camp has certainly not said that, and Adam Schiff has not declared that himself.
	They're essentially, I think, trying to argue that they believe that these were hacked, even though there's no evidence, and for some reason that makes them not credible documents.
	But then the Biden campaign should come out and say that unequivocally.
	These are fake emails, they're not real, and we can have a national conversation about that.
	You have to admit, That the way this came to our attention is almost miraculous.
	That he himself would bring the computer with these emails to a shop.
	Leave it at the shop forever.
	That the shop owner had the decency to report it.
	I mean, it's mind-blowing that this was made available.
	Anyway, who even has computers repaired?
	I pray for computer repairmen to make a living, but I don't quite understand why people just don't get a new computer.
	Nevertheless, so we have these now revealed to the American people.
	Now I'll ask you a political question.
	Even though you're an information man, do you think it will make a difference?
	My experience has been that people are concerned about corruption on left, right, and center.
	Now, obviously, it's a very polarized time.
	People have dug in their trenches and their positions.
	But I do believe there are enough people in the middle that take this stuff seriously.
	And they expect their leaders, when these issues come up, to give them answers.
	Not to dismiss it and blow it off.
	And particularly in the case of Biden, it's not just a question of, you know, sort of funneling some money in your son's pocket.
	Again, you're talking about something that is wrapped up with foreign governments and particularly the government of China, which, look, has said publicly by 2030 they want to supplant the United States as the world's global superpower.
	That's who is putting money in the pocket of the Biden family.
	That is certainly relevant and I do believe and want to believe that there are enough Americans that still care about that and want to have answers to those issues.
	Explain this to me if you can.
	Given now that it's pretty clear why then-Vice President Biden had the I think a pretty rare thing of forcing a government to fire one of its leading figures, that prosecutor, why would he have done this on video and bragged about it?
	That's a great question.
	I mean, you know, look, Biden has a history of sort of making statements and sort of talking on the fly.
	I think that he believed that it was going to position him with his audience.
	He was speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations as a reformer, as a guy who's trying to clean up Ukraine.
	What the people in that audience didn't know at the time, of course, was that Joe Biden's son, Hunter, was in business and being paid a million dollars a year by Burisma.
	And being investigated.
	That was under investigation by that prosecutor.
	Yes.
	So this is what we call chutzpah.
	This is a living example.

	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 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.
	All right, everybody. .

	I forgot.
	Is that an issue?
	I forgot.
	I mean, we never have, but I was just curious.
	A funny thing to think about.
	Anyway, whatever you would bill me, it was worth it.
	You're just a font of information there.
	So, let me ask you a final question.
	In all the revelations from the emails, has anything surprised you?
	It hasn't surprised me in the sense that it's all consistent, but let me tell you this, and I don't mean this as a tease, but there is a story that will be hitting in the Wall Street Journal soon.
	An individual who was business partners with the Bidens who has come forward with more documents and revelations.
	And we have also, myself and a colleague, have obtained 26,000 emails from a Biden former business partner named Bevin Cooney, who is now in federal prison and, you know, has obviously admitted to the mistakes that he made.
	But he has shared with us 26,000 emails that we are going through now.
	So there are more revelations to come.
	Everything builds on the foundation that we established before and demonstrates the depth and the extent to which the Biden family is intertwined with these foreign entities getting sweetheart deals they're not entitled to get.
	They don't bring anything to the table.
	And it's all based on Joe Biden's political power.
	Is there anyone in the upper echelon of American politics as corrupt as he?
	I would say probably not.
	There was a Republican senator that we found that had three members of his family that was engaged in corrupt activities.
	The Bidens actually have five.
	We actually nicknamed the Biden Five.
	So, again, the extent of it, I've never seen five family members engage in this kind of behavior.
	And, again, I have never seen it as globalized.
	The involvement of these foreign entities and foreign governments, rival foreign governments, I have not seen before.
	Well, this was a revelatory hour.
	Peter Schweizer's book, Profiles in Corruption, which I've read, and it is sobering reading.
	It's also relentlessly interesting.

	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 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.

	It should be clearer than ever how important Ultimate Issues are.
	If you don't have a philosophy of life, then you don't know how to perceive reality, let alone how to respond to it.
	So this is as important an hour as any that I broadcast.
	I'm Dennis Prager, this is the Ultimate Issues Hour.
	The ultimate issue today is, I don't believe I have addressed this in all the years of Ultimate Issues Hours.
	And it is a question that I'd like you to respond to.
	Why do so many religious parents have irreligious children?
	And if that happened to you, what is your explanation?
	So I'll give you mine.
	While you call, 1-8 Prager 776. There are many, many reasons.
	I think the biggest is that most religious people, this is not a criticism.
	I have no problem with criticizing.
	It's just, I'm explaining this is not meant as a criticism.
	It is meant as a description of reality.
	Most religious Jews and Christians, Do not know how to make the case for their religion.
	That's it.
	That's to me the biggest single reason.
	The hope was you raise your kid in a religious home or you go to church or synagogue and the kid will simply maintain this through his or her adulthood and will be fine.
	It's an understandable belief, but so often it is not the case.
	People forgot how to make the case.
	By the way, on a non-religious subject, people forgot how to make the case for America.
	So vast numbers of young Americans are alienated from America, not just from religion, from America.
	If you don't make the case, in an open society, you have to make the case.
	In a closed society, you don't.
	In medieval Europe, Christians did not have to make the case for Christianity to their children.
	Everybody was Christian.
	The society was permeated with a Christian ethos.
	In the East European shtetl, a small...
	The small towns in which many religious Jews lived, many non-religious as well, but religious Jews lived.
	You didn't have to make the case for Judaism to your kid, because what else were they going to be?
	It was just the assumption, this is how you grow up, this is how you live, this is how you die.
	But in an open society, you have to know how to make the case.
	For your religion to your child.
	And people don't know how.
	Many of you know, many of you don't.
	I began radio.
	Thank God.
	It was a gift from God to me.
	I began radio in the early 1980s as the host of a very, very, very popular show.
	In Los Angeles only, but it's a big market, Los Angeles, second biggest in the country.
	And it was called Religion on the Line.
	I was the moderator, and each week for two hours, without commercials, by the way, so it's like three hours, without commercials for two hours, I would be the moderator with a priest, rabbi, and minister, Catholic, Protestant, Jew.
	After five years, I did it for ten years, I opened it up to every other religion, literally every in the world.
	So it was quite an education.
	And then I realized, in the course of my moderating it, that a lot of the priests and ministers didn't make a particularly effective case for Christianity, and a lot of the rabbis didn't make a particularly effective case for Judaism.
	I remember once where I actually answered a caller who was mocking Christians for their belief, one of their beliefs.
	And then I said, with your permission, may I respond to the caller?
	And I made a really compelling case.
	And I'm not a Christian, but I made a compelling case to this caller.
	I'm a Jew, a believing Jew, I might add, a practicing Jew.
	I made this case because I think Christianity in America has been a blessing by and large.
	And I made the case and inside of me I was laughing that this Jew was better able to make the case.
	And it happened on other occasions where the priest or minister made a better case for Judaism than the rabbi did.
	So the first problem in why...
	The children of religious people are not religious is they don't know.
	The parents didn't know.
	The school didn't know.
	If you were sent to a religious school even, how do you make the case?
	That's what I've done with my life, is make the rational case for religion.
	As you can see, most evidently in my Bible commentary, The Rational Bible, which I... I urge you to read, because it will affect your life very deeply.
	Genesis and Exodus are published next year in June, the third of the five volumes.
	It's the first five books of the Bible, the Torah.
	The next volume will be Volume 5, even though it's the third volume published, Deuteronomy.
	Which is so filled with insight that it's mind-blowing.
	Life-changing stuff.
	But we didn't know how to make the case.
	And the other big reason is, of course, they are swimming.
	Our children are swimming in a secular ocean.
	It's very hard to undo.
	I mean, they're breathing in secular air.
	Not just secular air.
	Anti-religious air.
	To say that you are a religious Catholic or Christian, Protestant, LDS, Mormon, Jew on a campus today is to really stick out.
	And open yourself up, if you're at all outspoken, to ridicule.
	You know what our videos at PragerU on the case for God and the case for religion, do you know what they get?
	A staggering amount of hate comments on YouTube.
	And many of them are just ridicule.
	That's what they have learned.
	So, that's the question.
	Has it happened to you?
	And that is...
	That I would like to hear.
	And the lines are obviously full, but you should still try to call.
	But I would like to hear from a parent wherein this is the exact case that happened.
	That the parent is religious and the child is not.
	And how do you reflect on it?
	Also, there are levels of alienation.
	There are kids who were alienated, you know, just because, you know, oh, my, you know, I grew up in a, they'll say, I grew up in a religious home, and it's all sweet and stuff, but I just can't believe in it.
	And there are other kids who will say, you know, this is, I can't believe my parents believe in such nonsense.
	And that is, that is the way it works.
	All right, I will take your calls.
	What's our timing here, Sean?
	And then we will...
	I can begin here.
	Keith in Erie, Pennsylvania.
	Hi.
	Hello, Mr. Prager.
	Hello, Mr. Prager.
	Yes, sir.
	It's very good to talk to you.
	It's a privilege.
	Thank you.
	I bought my dad...
	My dad's a pastor.
	I bought my dad the Rational Bible.
	The first and second edition.
	He already has went through Genesis and handed that down to me, and he's working on Exodus as well.
	Great.
	Thank you.
	But to answer your question, I think that, and I don't know if you're going to agree with this or not, but I think that part of the reason that kids that are brought up in the church...
	All right.
	It's a trailer for what he's about.
	Don't go away.
	away.
	I want to hear it.
	Turning now on the Charlie Kirk Show.
	Amy Coney Barrett was, of course, pressed on Roe vs. 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...
	You know, 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 vs.
	Wade, there were several states across the country that had outlawed abortion.
	The problem with Roe vs.
	Wade is not even the issue of abortion.
	Abortion does stop a beating heart and abortion does terminate a human life.
	The Roe vs.
	Wade overturned the state mandates.
	People did not vote for this.
	It was one of the most undemocratic decisions in the history of the Supreme Court.
	It basically nationalized.
	The slaughter of innocent life.
	It was a 7-2 decision.
	It was done by the Burger Court.
	The Warren Court prior to the Burger Court really set the landscape and set the framing for Roe vs.
	Wade.
	And what's happened since Roe vs.
	Wade?
	60 million plus abortions in our country.
	It was a 7-2 decision.
	And the decision actually involved the case of a woman named Norma McCorvey.
	She used the pseudonym, of course, Jane Roe.
	She wanted an abortion.
	She lived in Texas where abortion was illegal and eventually sued her local district attorney, Henry Wade.

	What happened?
	Well, I mean, I'd say it was An absolutely organized coup against an administration by the intelligence agencies, by overreaching law enforcement agencies like the FBI, and by the DNC and the Hillary campaign, in addition to the Obama administration.
	I mean, I think we do a pretty good job of showing how all of those things are connected.
	All the agencies, the White House, Brennan, Comey, the NSA. I think one of the better points that was made is that you don't really understand the real danger and implications of what happened.
	And it's like people are like, oh, Russiagate, yeah, it turned out not to be true.

	The subject of the Ultimate Issues Hour, third hour Tuesday's Ultimate Issues Hour is, how do you explain all the non-religious kids coming from religious homes?
	Back to Erie, Pennsylvania.
	Now, Keith, you are, as I understand it, a PK, correct?
	Yes, sir.
	Alright, for those who don't know, a PK is a preacher's kid.
	Alright, so what's your explanation?
	Here's what I think, and like I said, maybe you're going to agree with me, maybe you're not.
	But I think that it's a matter of good and evil.
	And I think that those kids that were raised in the church are...
	Are like low-hanging fruit to the dark side.
	Because?
	Why are they low-hanging?
	That's my question.
	Well, you know, but you're talking about a religion and I'm talking about a relationship.
	And I think that those parents that have prayed for those kids, it's a matter of You know, the devil wants to take those kids.
	Because kids that haven't been brought up in the church, who cares?
	Oh, I see what you're saying.
	They're not low-hanging.
	They're most desirable.
	I think it's a difference.
	Thank you.
	Listen, I'm going to say something that will...
	That you've never heard me say, because this is very new in my life.
	Jews tend not to believe in the devil.
	That's the traditional Jewish faith.
	I know that Satan is mentioned in the Old Testament.
	It's really confined, essentially, to the Book of Job.
	And in any event, it really means accuser.
	But I will tell you, I still don't believe in an actual devil, but I don't mock the belief.
	What is happening in America to the most wonderful country ever invented, and the loathing of it on the part of people...
	Thank you.
	Who have so benefited from it?
	It has tempted me to think there's some diabolic work taking place.
	But I still use it metaphorically, but I certainly don't dismiss it.
	It's hard to explain some things in any other way that I'll acknowledge.
	All right, let's go to Scottsdale, Arizona, and Tom, hello.
	Good morning, Dennis.
	Thank you so much for all that you do.
	Thank you for saying that.
	I really appreciate your clarity.
	Good.
	Well, take it away.
	Can you hear me?
	I hear you perfectly, just waiting for you to speak.
	So, um...
	We're a bit of a hodgepodge family, or at least myself.
	My aunt's a retired man.
	My sister is Jewish now, as of 10 years ago.
	I raised my family in the LDS church, went on a mission myself, and then later left the church in my 40s because of some disagreements over their history.
	And so my two youngest sons who went to college on academic scholarships have failed out, lost their scholarships, and really honestly lost their way.
	They're like a boat without a rudder and without a sail, and they no longer believe in religion.
	They're very anti-religion, and it just breaks my heart.
	I'm sure it does.
	It breaks my heart, and I don't even know them.
	I'm not their father.
	By the way, so you're not, though, with any organized religion either, from what you said?
	So, yeah, we attend a Christian church now, more non-denominational.
	So I don't know if that's religious or just faithful.
	No, it is.
	Do you go regularly before the lockdown?
	Regularly, yes.
	I see.
	So your two youngest were not raised with religion?
	All five kids were raised.
	Deeply in the Mormon religion.
	Their grandfather was a bishop for seven years.
	So what happened to the two youngest?
	Why the two youngest, do you think?
	I think it's a combination of social media and the university setting.
	The three oldest were girls and got married and had very stable lives and relationships, and they all have college degrees, and they just didn't seem to be quite as affected by the university setting.
	But within one year of going...
	To the universities, both sons, totally anti-religious.
	And one of them even started attending these BLM movements.
	I'm almost embarrassed that he's so weak-minded.
	It's like, I feel like I failed as a parent.
	I feel for you.
	That he was so easily swayed.
	Is he alienated from you?
	He's not.
	No, but fortunately, the dialogue's still open.
	His sisters argue quite often on conservatives and liberal movements.
	Part of it has to do with his...
	He got involved with a girl that's very, very liberal and a...
	That'll do it.
	...vegan and everything else.
	Yeah, vegan.
	I'm laughing.
	It could go any way.
	They were conservative vegans, but it...
	It's like the latte stereotype.
	Well, at least he has the daughters.
	That's why we made PragerU to present intellectual arguments for what should be obvious.
	That's the whole point.
	every single conservative point is obvious.

	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. Does America have real issues in its past?

	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?

	The ultimate issue is our Tuesday, third hour.
	The ultimate issue is why do so many religious parents have irreligious, even anti-religious children?
	And I gave some of my thoughts, but I'm very interested to hear from you here.
	All righty.
	Joe in Seneca, South Carolina.
	Hi.
	Hi.
	This is the first time I've talked, always on the subject of religion.
	I had three kids who are now in their 30s and have kids of their own, and they were raised in the church, Methodist church, where every Sunday kids served on committees with me.
	We ushered together most of the time, and we were very much into church.
	And as soon as they got out of the house and on their own, we didn't want anything to do with it.
	And I think it's because in the...
	80s and 90s when they were growing up, it was just the uncoolest thing you could do is go to church.
	It's like being in the Boy Scouts.
	Oh, it's just as uncool today.
	Yeah.
	I mean, it was just as uncool as now because when I was growing up, the church was kind of the center of social life for an elementary school kid.
	But when he was growing up, when they were growing up, you know, like soccer practice would be on Sunday mornings, baseball practice would be on Sunday mornings, campouts or over the weekend.
	And it was always...
	Conflicting with something they'd much rather be doing, and they never really got it.
	And it was a point of major frustration for my wife and me.
	And now I have four grandkids, and none of them are in the bathtub.
	Yes.
	I truly feel for you.
	I don't want to make it worse by telling you how much I feel for you.
	The reason, among the reasons I feel for Joe in South Carolina and the many Joes around the country and the many Josephines, if you will, among the reasons I feel for Joe in South Carolina and the many Joes around the country and the many Josephines, Thank you.
	Religion in America has generally been really nice.
	When you reject it, you're rejecting something nice.
	And you're not taking on something nice in replacement of it.
	Religious people give more charity.
	Religious people donate more time.
	Religious people adopt kids with special needs more than non-religious people do.
	So there are a lot of nice people.
	And the kids leaving this for the cooler world, the cooler world is not a nicer world.
	Cool is the perfect word, by the way.
	Because it's very cool compared to the warmth of a religious life.
	So, I feel for people like my last caller for another reason.
	This has been true my whole life, but it is, of course, totally true today.
	Parents battle society to raise a good child.
	Before 1960, roughly speaking, in America you could raise a child almost effortlessly.
	You didn't have to worry about what movies they saw.
	You didn't have to worry about what they could purchase on the street.
	You didn't have to worry, most of all, About the school that you sent your kid to, teaching them, teaching him or her, the opposite of what you stand for.
	I mean, the actual opposite.
	You don't have to worry about any of that.
	And so, you were hit.
	Sucker punched is the best way to put it.
	Out of nowhere, this...
	Onslaught of awfulness in the university and now trickling down to high school.

	Hello.
	Hello, sir.
	How are you?
	Okay, thank you.
	Well, great.
	With regards to your question, I believe a lot of it has to do with their upbringing.
	When parents are heavily involved in their church or the religious activities, they kind of tend to neglect the kids.
	And that abandonment causes hostility towards the religion later on in life.
	I know of churches that have their calendars full of leadership events and leadership models.
	Let me hear the rest.

	All right, we continue with the Ultimate Issues Hour, third hour Tuesday.
	day. you Why do so many religious people have irreligious or even anti-religious children?
	Darren is in Jacksonville.
	Go ahead.
	Yeah, well, what I was saying was with regards to it is they tend to get, the parents tend to get preoccupied with their religious responsibilities or the responsibilities to the church or whichever, synagogue or whichever.
	And they tend to forget, hey, I'm a parent first.
	You know, I have a responsibility to my kids, too.
	And I see that more with preacher kids.
	I mean, PKs are notorious for having a bad reputation.
	Maybe that bad reputation is them acting out, trying to get attention from their parent who is too occupied with regards to their responsibility in ministry.
	Have you seen this problem first hand?
	I have.
	There was a particular church that would have leadership meetings and all kinds of activities all through the week.
	The parents would do everything they could just to make it home in time for dinner if they even made it home for dinner.
	And their kids, in response, were rebellious and hostile towards the church.
	In fact, they didn't want to go to church on Sunday.
	Well, I thank you.
	I had never considered that.
	But that, if it's true, and I'm not saying it isn't, it would largely be the children of clergy.
	I think most laypeople are not as preoccupied with the religious institutions and life as they are, and then lose their kid accordingly.
	But I appreciate the insight.
	Okay, Cleveland, David, hello.
	Hello, Dennis.
	How are you today?
	Okay, thank you.
	I don't think there's a single bullet answer, but from my perspective, both as a child and as a parent, I grew up Catholic and in the Catholic Church, and I also raised my children Catholic, who I believe now are not active at all in the church, or any church for that matter.
	But as I got older in life, and I broke away from going to church on a routine basis, I was looking for a church to attend, because I think that's important.
	And I ended up as a recent convert into the LDF church.
	And I see, for myself, I was never taught how to sign my own testimony in the Catholic church.
	However, I did get a very strong testimony on whether or not I should join the Church of Jesus Christ, whether they think.
	And I believe that there are members in our church that feel strongly about teaching their children how to gain their own testimony, or they will probably fall away as well because they can't continue a religion if they don't have a testimony on it.
	That's just my thoughts.
	What does that mean, testimony?
	Testimony is something that you actually...
	Witness or something that you feel that you know to be true.
	In my particular case, I was thinking about, I was praying and thinking about whether or not I should be baptized into the church.
	So you offer this testimony orally and in writing?
	Yeah, our church offers testimony orally once a month.
	It's the first Sunday.
	Okay, so this has been a very effective vehicle for you to return to religion.
	Oh, yeah.
	Okay, all right.
	Thank you.
	Listen, I have worked on this all of my life, and I know that different things will appeal to different people.
	In bringing them back to, or for the first time, to a religious life.
	And whatever works, so long as it's moral, I am in favor of it.
	My own approach has been reason and intellect.
	My vehicle to God and religion is through the mind.
	And since people have left through the mind, we have to get them back through the mind.
	Or they think they have through the mind.
	The truth is, it's been very profoundly superficial intellectually, the anti-religious world.
	But nevertheless, that is the way they think of it.
	So one has to answer.
	I mean, there are emotional aspects, and then there are intellectual aspects.
	The latter move me to the former.
	All right.
	Esteban in San Antonio.
	Hello.
	I'm kind of the reverse.
	My parents are fairly secular progressive.
	I was saved May 1st of 91, and the circumstance put me in an evangelical church in Denton.
	And my parents' secularism was a toxin.
	So when I got around believers, they acted differently.
	But those children who are raised around believers, whose parents are believers, it's kind of like being raised on high-quality food and have never been forced to have junk food.
	So they don't know what it was like.
	They don't see the consequences of sin.
	They don't see the consequences of a flawed worldview.
	Whereas a teenager, going to church was like eating prime rib after having poison shoved in your mouth.
	Raised in Christian households whose parents they loved didn't grasp.
	And so there was almost, even today, I see teenagers who've come to Christ on a collision, of course, with teenagers who are raised in Christian homes who don't realize what sin tastes like and what sin causes and what bad ideas cause.
	All right, I thank you.
	When I make the case, that's perfectly legitimate.
	It's not language I use to make the case.
	I try not to use religious language to convince people of the importance of God and religion, and especially the Bible.
	Because I know what is an immediate turnoff, and I try not to use it.
	We'll be back in a moment.

	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 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 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.

	Sex.
	Kayleigh McEnany is the press secretary for the President of the United States.
	When she posted a New York Post article, not just some crazy tweet.
	She posted a New York Post article.
	She was locked.
	Out of her Twitter account.
	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 is 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 all right everybody final segment of the ultimate issues arrow this week Thank you.
	Why do so many religious parents have anti-religious or just simply irreligious children?
	There are a lot of reasons.
	The two I gave in the beginning were, most religious people don't know how to make the case for religion, or their religion even.
	And the...
	The other is, of course, that you breathe in anti-religious air at almost every school in the country.
	Not just secular air, anti-religious air.
	It's a real battle.
	That's why you have to learn to make the case.
	Do you know that I have spent far more time, and I've been an effective spokesman for a religion, And I spend far more time on the necessity of God than the existence of God.
	I think it is more important to explain to people why God is necessary than to argue why God exists.
	You can conclude, okay, there's a God, you know, you want to pass the soul, please?
	So what?
	The necessity for the Ten Commandments, the necessity of the wisdom of the Bible, the necessity of a moral foundation from God is far more powerful or constitute far more powerful arguments than arguing for faith alone.
	Faith is beautiful and important.
	But for many people in the environment in which we live today, not compelling.
	Not as much as what I just said, for example.
	Mark in Dallas says, Parents are sometimes slightly embarrassed that faith, unlike science, can't be proven.
	Nothing worthwhile can be proven.
	Morality can't be proven.
	Beauty can't be proven.
	Love can't be proven.
	You can prove that hydrogen and oxygen produce water.
	Great.
	It's a very limited part of the world that can be proven.
	You can't prove murder is wrong.
	That's a statement of faith.
	Let's see.
	Evan in Columbus, some of the responsibility lies with religious leaders failing congregations, not just parents.
	Thank you.
	It's an interesting question.
	I think if they've done evil, that's true, but otherwise, we'll revisit it.
	Mark, Stephanie, Charlotte, Sharon, Lisa, David, thank you for calling.
	I wish I could take your calls.
