	So the decision to include, among other sectors, outdoor dining and limiting that, turning to restaurants to deliver and provide takeout options instead, really has to do with the goal of trying to keep people at home, not a comment on the relative safety of outdoor dining.
	In other words, restaurants and workers at restaurants, We don't give a damn about you.
	And the truth is, what you're doing is not dangerous.
	We just want to keep people home.
	And the left is known, it knows itself for its compassion.
	Get that?
	This is a compassion message.
	The truth is, outdoor dining is not a problem, but we don't want people out of the house.
	Get it?
	This is admitted.
	It's admitted.
	There's no data.
	There's data on vitamin D. If everybody took large doses of vitamin D, now you can't say that this is politically motivated.
	The president did not recommend yet vitamin D. For those of you who take your health from whether you hate the president or not.
	Living in a very, very sad America compared to what I knew.
	The ascendance of irrationality is very scary to me.
	I find the irrational.
	I find the irrational in beliefs with regard to religion perfectly acceptable because it doesn't have any real life Ramification.
	This is a theory I've had for many years.
	Everyone needs the non-rational in their lives.
	Since the left are not religious, they have the non-rational applied to life.
	The religious are rational in life and have non-rational beliefs in their religion.
	So they have a safe place for the non-rational, unlike the left, whose irrationality and counter-rationality is applied to life and very destructive.

	The problem with Newsom's hypocritical actions is that they undercut the very healthcare professionals and scientists whose advice he is asking Californians to follow.
	It makes those of us who live in California wonder who we can trust and what guidance we should be listening to.

	Let's go.
	State of Texas filed an election lawsuit with the Supreme Court against Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin, alleging that the states unconstitutionally changed their election laws, treated voters unequally, triggered voting irregularities by relaxing ballot integrity measures.
	The motion says, and I'm quoting, Plaintiff State respectfully submits the foregoing types of electoral irregularities exceed the hanging Chad saga of the 2000 election in their degree of departure from both state and federal law.
	Moreover, these flaws cumulatively preclude knowing who legitimately won the 2020 election and threatened to cloud all future elections.
	In response to Pennsylvania AG, Josh Shapiro called the lawsuit meritless.
	Quote, they are a scheme by the President of the United States and some in the Republican Party to disregard the will of the people and name their own victors.
	This isn't a pick-your-own-novel ending.
	This is democracy, end of quote.
	Referred to it as a publicity stunt.
	The Michigan AG also said the same thing, that it was a publicity stunt.
	Jim Jordan also wants to know why the Georgia governor is not allowing signatures to be checked.
	When you send out all these ballots, we had a staffer, I've said this many times, we had a staffer who works for our office and for the Judiciary Committee, who at her apartment, she got her ballot, four other ballots were mailed to her apartment that were people who didn't live there.
	That is a recipe for disaster, and all we're asking now is, why won't some of these, why won't Governor Kemp in Georgia, for example, let us recheck the signatures and actually find out the rejection rate that Mr. Starr was talking about earlier.

	And, you know, I want to go back to Raphael Warnock's really radical rhetoric over the years.
	But before we do that...
	As I know you know, Congressman, all we hear, all I hear from my listeners, not only here in Georgia and the 17 affiliates we have all throughout the state, but all throughout the country, people are almost apoplectic about election integrity and what many believe to be a fraudulent election.
	I have to ask you, as somebody who knows Georgia, you know the lay of the land as well as anybody in the world.
	What do we tell people, what do you tell people who are worried?
	about the legitimacy of the Senate runoffs.
	Is there oversight?
	Is there accountability?
	Are they going to be able to cheat their way into putting a couple of radicals like Ossoff and Warnock into the Senate?
	Well, number one, no.
	Not if our conservatives show up.
	But I also will say this.
	Look, I've been inviting folks in this for...
	The modern version of an old Jewish song for the miracle of Hanukkah.
	...and get advantage of this perfect holiday gift.
	Oh, a happy Hanukkah to my Jewish listeners and to non-Jews who wish to identify with it.
	Why not?
	No Hanukkah, no monotheism.
	No monotheism, no Christianity.
	And no Judaism, obviously.
	It's actually a very important event that is celebrated.
	It's not considered a major holiday.
	It's considered a wonderful holiday, but not a major one.
	And the reason for that is it's not biblically based.
	It's a post-biblical holiday, as is Purim.
	Although that's not true.
	Purim is in this.
	The Book of Esther.
	But it's the holiday itself.
	It's post...
	It's not a natural, let's put it that way.
	Anyway, I don't want to get into the theological weeds at this time.
	I love the theological weeds, just for the record.
	But there's too much to say in the first hour of the Friday show because we go to the happiness hour right after this.
	So it doesn't look like the Supreme Court, at least, that's what the experts, including on our side, say the Supreme Court will take the Texas and 18 other states lawsuit, and it seemed to me to be a legitimate lawsuit.
	Look, there was no question there was cheating.
	The question is, was it determinative?
	This is something you must remember.
	For the Democrats, there is motive, opportunity, and morality.
	That's all you need to do anything.
	The motive is to win the election.
	The opportunity is through vast numbers of mail-in ballots that can show up at any time.
	It's closing down poll watching for the evening while the president was winning.
	So there are many, many, and the number of anomalies are remarkable.
	First incumbent president to get more votes than he got the first time he was elected, and lose.
	When was the last time a president won Ohio and Florida and lost?
	I'm serious.
	Do you know the answer?
	No, I know.
	I'd love to get the exact date.
	It would be fascinating to me.
	It's at least half a century.
	I mean, there were so many of those.
	So the first is, is there a motive?
	Second, is there an opportunity?
	And the third, is your conscience clear, clean?
	And the answer is yes.
	If you believe, which every Democrat seems to, that the president is a neo-fascist, white supremacist, neo-Nazi dictator, why wouldn't you cheat?
	I would.
	I fully acknowledge it.
	I think you're morally bound to cheat if you can keep a white supremacist, neo-Nazi dictator out of office.
	Right?
	You're going to have to answer to God if you're in the polling business.
	You could have stopped a neo-Nazi, white supremacist, fascist dictator from gaining power, and you didn't?
	Get it?
	So this notion of, you think we would do such a thing, is absurd.
	Of course they would do such a thing.
	The question is, how much did they do it?
	That is the only question.
	And I don't know the answer.
	Hence my use of the term agnostic with regard to the results.
	I don't know.
	But I've never said that in my life, that I don't know.
	note, I haven't said it about a Democrat or a Republican.
	Someone I was speaking to, I think it was my wife, which is terrible.
	You should remember when you spoke to your wife about something.
	He said, in retrospect, maybe Richard Nixon was wrong in not protesting the stealing of the election from him when John Kennedy won.
	Everybody today knows that the election was stolen by the Democrats in Illinois and Texas.
	Is Lyndon Johnson there?
	Yeah.
	Mm-hmm.
	The beauty of being on, there are many beauties apparently, there are many benefits of being on the left.
	One is you don't actually have to do good to feel good about yourself.
	That's a truly, a truly big benefit of being on the left.
	You have to feel good about yourself and that's all that's necessary.
	And then your conscience is cleared.
	That's part of the reason the left doesn't like religion, because religion says, uh-uh, uh-uh, you don't make up the rules.
	There's a God who makes up the rules, and that really annoys them.
	And then when it's added to the American message, God wants us free.
	The Liberty Bell has a verse from the Bible, from the Torah, in fact, Leviticus.
	Leviticus 25. I don't remember the verse, but it's Leviticus 25. And you shall proclaim liberty throughout the lands to all its inhabitants.
	Wouldn't that be nice?
	If somebody in power said that?
	If somebody in power said what Franklin Roosevelt said?
	We have nothing to fear but fear itself.
	Every great message of the past has been trampled on.
	Now the message is we can crush tens of thousands of restaurants, ruin their owners' lives, ruin the lives of all those who work there, not because what they're doing is unsafe, but because we have the priority of keeping people at home.
	These are truly awful human beings like this.
	What's his name?
	Like this Barbara Ferrer and this guy here.
	Golly.
	They're really awful human beings.
	But they go to bed with a clear conscience.
	They get their salaries.
	You know, Barbara Ferrer, I believe, is over $400,000.
	$400,000.
	And she's useless.
	She's actually harmful to the state.
	So when you make $400,000 a year, it is quite possible for you to have no empathy or sympathy for people, the lowlifes who run businesses.
	The left hates the entrepreneur, hates the person.
	They don't emotionally hate them.
	They hate them insofar as their behavior is concerned.
	Because they can't control small businesses.
	Nike is a left-wing organization.
	So Google is a left-wing organization.
	So the left loves the giant ones.
	Walmart is woke.
	Netflix is woke.
	But your local restaurant, that's an independent mind.
	1-8 Prager 776. That President-elect Biden will nominate Lloyd Austin to be Secretary of Defense.
	Now, would you engage with me on it, on whether or not Lloyd Austin will be a good nominee on the Senate Armed Services Committee?
	Well, Hugh, first let me say that I respect and admire Lloyd Austin's service to our nation over 40 years in uniform.
	And I suspect that he might Get quickly confirmed to many positions in a Democratic or Republican cabinet, for that matter.
	However, there are serious misgivings in the Senate about having another recently retired general become the Secretary of Defense.
	You'll recall that federal law prohibits any general who's been retired for fewer than seven years to receive a waiver from the Congress to become the Secretary of Defense.
	Before Jim Mattis in 2017, it had only happened once before for George Marshall in the 1950s.
	And one I would just highlight to you is Jack Reed.
	He is the senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee.
	And when he voted for that waiver in 2017, he expressed a reservation about doing so.
	He said it should be a once-in-a-generation moment and that he would not in the future support another waiver for a recently retired general.
	So if they've already lost the Senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, it is from Liberal Democrats to Conservative Republicans in the Senate who share these concerns about civil-military relations inside the Pentagon.
	Do you share those concerns, Senator Cotton?
	Yes, I do.
	Thank you.

	Eight or nine years ago, a friend of mine forced me to watch a documentary which proposed that LBJ had been behind the Kennedy assassination.
	Like most people, I began watching it with tremendous skepticism, almost derision, but as it went along, I became more and more convinced that the case For LBJ's involvement in the Kennedy assassination was very, very strong, so much so that I was deeply disturbed by it.
	I'm glad to know that somebody whom I respect, which is to say you, has written a book about it.
	Well, first of all, I think the American people have an endless fascination with the murder of John F. Kennedy because it was televised in essence in every aspect.
	I think I used...
	Eyewitness evidence, fingerprint evidence, and a lot of deep Texas politics to demonstrate that Lyndon Johnson had the motive, means, and opportunity to kill John Kennedy.
	I put forward a lot of very, very compelling circumstantial evidence.
	I'm not an attorney, but I dare anybody to read this book and not come away convinced.
	By the way, the book is the first book I've ever wrote.
	And it was a New York Times bestseller.
	Still does quite well.
	Put aside the question of the assassination of John Kennedy for a moment, it's also a profile of Lyndon Johnson, who is essentially a functioning lunatic.
	I mean, he is a psychopath.
	He is a drunk.
	He is a pill popper.
	He is a womanizer.
	He's a sadist.

	So I want to get into this Texas news.
	I know that you're just aware of just kind of the process, and it's actually less about the particulars, but more just about the bigger picture.
	You're from Texas.
	You guys are headquartered in Texas, right?
	What was the news today that came out of Texas?
	Well, the news was that an original jurisdiction suit was filed on the election.
	Now, what that means is normally if you file a lawsuit, people think you can just go to the Supreme Court, right?
	No, you don't just go to the Supreme Court.
	The way you get to the Supreme Court...
	Okay, y'all, Dennis Prager here.
	A reminder, it's Christmas season, the music.
	Should help.
	We have a wonderful campaign this year.
	The Christmas charity is the Angel Tree Campaign.
	And the thing that they do is very touching to me. - They give a gift to a child who has a parent in prison.
	The gift...
	Ostensibly comes from the parent in the prison and hopefully with a note.
	And they give the child a Bible as well.
	The crisis in this country is overwhelmingly a religious one.
	Secular conservatives do not understand that, but it's okay.
	Some do.
	And our dear friend from Britain, Mr. Murray, Douglas Murray.
	He is secular, but he understands that the crisis is the hole that secularism...
	What does he call it?
	The donut?
	I think he calls it a donut.
	The hole that has been created by secularism, which is filled by leftism.
	This is what I've argued.
	Remember I've said all of my broadcast career, if there's one message that I have conveyed for 35 years, the consequences of secularism.
	But very few people talk about it.
	Notice, have you ever heard the term secular extremist?
	No.
	Have you ever heard the term religious extremist?
	Oh.
	You ever heard religious fundamentalist?
	You ever heard secular fundamentalist?
	You can be too religious, but you can't be too secular.
	See?
	That's the way it's done.
	Anyway, the campaign has a banner at my website, and I really urge you to contribute.
	It's a beautiful charity.
	I don't accept any charity to advertise for if I don't believe in it.
	And donate to it, for that matter.
	Angel Tree Campaign at my website.
	Yeah, he's a secular ace.
	My kid's too secular.
	A lot of parents fear that their kids will be too religious, right?
	Oh, no.
	Oh, my God.
	I don't want them to be too religious.
	But can your child be too secular?
	Nah.
	That's not an issue.
	Let me hear another gift of the left to civilization.
	Former Bin Laden subordinate released.
	After judge agrees he's too obese to survive coronavirus.
	Did you see this headline?
	A former Osama bin Laden henchman convicted in two deadly 1998 bombings is free and living in the UK this week after being released early.
	No, he was here.
	He's been sent to Britain.
	Thanks to a Manhattan federal judge.
	He got fat in prison.
	Yeah, that's a great point, I must say.
	Sean, if there were a reward room, I would send you there right now.
	He got fat in prison, and then credulity has come over, Sean.
	Triple G, the gentle Gentile giant.
	Thanks to a Manhattan federal judge who agreed the terrorist was way too obese to survive the coronavirus behind bars.
	I don't get it.
	They want to release evil people.
	Remember, the left does not fight evil.
	The left fights conservatives.
	Adel Abdel...
	Did I write yesterday?
	I don't remember a line I wrote.
	I write it down.
	That's really pathetic.
	And then I lose the paper.
	What's the good of that?
	What was it?
	It was about a...
	A conservative is a liberal who...
	And then I forgot.
	Not mid-mugged.
	I had a different...
	Sean, if you find it, because I stopped there and I even made a note.
	If you find it, I will make sure that that...
	The priest that I had on the show has a cigar with you.
	Father McTeague.
	Yes.
	How do you like?
	That is quite a deal.
	Exactly right.

	The greatest perk of my job is the people I meet, both through Radio and PragerU.
	If you have two spectacular people in your life, you are a very lucky person.
	But I have hundreds.
	And I never lose gratitude for it.
	The guy killed 224 people, including 12 Americans.
	And he's let out because he's overweight in prison.
	You know what the single biggest thing that they violate in the Bible?
	Those of you who love God must hate evil.
	They don't hate evil on the left.
	That's what I've always said.
	That's why they were not anti-communist.
	All right, everybody.
	Relief factor is one of the great gifts of modern science because it relieves pain in the great majority of people who use it.

	California Governor Gavin Newsom has repeatedly called on Californians to come together and make sacrifices to fight COVID-19.
	The request would have been better received if, at the same time, Governor Newsom wasn't off violating his own public health guidance by dining with a group of lobbyists at one of America's most posh restaurants or sending his kids to a Sacramento private school in person.
	While many California schools remain closed for in-person learning and millions of students slog their way through online classes.
	The problem with Newsom's hypocritical actions is that they undercut the very healthcare professionals and scientists whose advice he is asking Californians to follow.

	Speaker 1: So I want to get into this Texas news.
	I know that you're just aware of just kind of the process and it's actually less about the particulars but more just about the bigger picture.
	You're from Texas.
	You guys are headquartered in Texas, right?
	What was the news today that came out of Texas?
	Well, the news was that an original jurisdiction suit was filed on the election.
	Now, what that means is normally if you file a lawsuit, people think you can just go to the Supreme Court, right?
	No, you don't just go to the Supreme Court.
	The way you get to the Supreme Court is you go through either a state system all the way through the highest court of the state, and then if you feel there's an issue that the Supreme Court can address, you can go from the state Supreme Court to the U.S. Supreme Court, or you can go through the federal courts.
	The lower court, then the Court of Appeals, and then appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
	And they take about 8,000 requests a year take 80 cases.
	So your odds are...
	100%.
	Yeah.
	What happened in Texas is, in the Constitution, there is very few things that you can file and you go straight to the Supreme Court.
	And that is, if one state goes after another state.
	And so what happened is Texas sued a number of these swing states saying, look, you are diluting our vote and hurting our ability to have a fair election when you don't follow the Constitution in your state.
	And what the Constitution says is that each state legislature gets to determine how you do your election.
	And so, therefore, whatever the state legislature said is what you have to do.
	And, of course, in a number of these states, they violated what the state legislature said.

	I got to say, there is a treasure trove of Christmas songs, and this is not up there.
	This is a second tier.
	Do you agree?
	You like it?
	I like the song.
	I'm sorry?
	I like the song.
	I wouldn't say it's the top.
	No, no.
	Would you say it's in the top 25?
	No.
	No.
	Top 35. I'm getting them.
	You know that he, being the living martyr, did a non-martyr-like thing.
	Yeah.
	He went to the Hanukkah party at the White House.
	Well, there was a martyrdom aspect.
	Everybody wore a mask, I saw.
	God, what kind of party is that?
	You know what the amazing thing is?
	I bet you that at this president's Christmas or Hanukkah party, If people were told, it is up to you whether you wear a mask, they would be off so fast that that would be considered one of the shortest durations of time measurable between that announcement and the removal of people's masks.
	The guards were circulating, no kidding.
	And you wore it over your nose?
	Only when the guard circulated.
	See, now here's a perfect example.
	I mean it sincerely now.
	What did I say?
	What determines whether people do something?
	Motive, opportunity, morality.
	Your motive was to breathe.
	The opportunity was there when the guard was not around.
	And the morality was, this is drivel, nonsense, and beyond belief, herd-like behavior.
	So there you go.
	It's a very important thing that I've come up with.
	I'm sure I'm not the first to come up with this, but I've applied it to the cheating question, which you have to admit is accurate.
	The motive was to win the election.
	The opportunity was there because of tens of millions of mail-in ballots and because of other things that I don't know.
	And the morality was there because stopping a fascist dictator from taking power is moral.
	That's it.
	That's the way it is.
	All right, let's see what your...
	Now, Kendrick in Atlanta, the line I'm trying to recall is not a leftist is a liberal who's been mugged.
	That's a very famous line.
	No, it's not.
	Anyway, that's not true.
	It's a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged.
	Anyway, no, I made up a new line yesterday.
	It was not hour three.
	What was yesterday?
	Thursday?
	Yeah, it was not hour three.
	I can't do better than that.
	I can't believe I wrote it down.
	You know who I hold responsible for losing this paper?
	No.
	No, no, no.
	The living martyr knows exactly who I hold responsible.
	Dennis Prager.
	Yes.
	You know, I have zero problem in taking blame if I've done it.
	A realistic assessment of one's self is a very big help in life.
	Yes, indeed.
	All right, y'all.
	Hey, Robert in Thousand Oaks, California, you signed the recall?
	Yes, sir, I did.
	And the funny part about it, like I said, it's either at the big box stores.
	I signed mine at the grocery store.
	And when I went to a big box store yesterday, a lady and her husband, she was wearing a MAGA hat, and she asked me to sign.
	And I apologized to her.
	I says, I'm sorry I can't sign because I'm not in Georgia or Pennsylvania.
	That's very funny.
	That was well done.
	And she laughed so much.
	Yeah, that was a great line.
	Let me ask you a question.
	Do you know how many people have signed it?
	Well, the page that I looked at, it was full, and I asked the gentleman there, and he says, Yes.
	Well, how many do you need?
	Does anybody know?
	Oh, 100,000?
	800,000?
	So what's the issue?
	We should get 800,000 in a week.
	There are 10 million Republicans in California.
	There are more Republicans in California than anywhere else in the country.
	See, every governor who has violated morality and the Constitution, Should be recalled.
	And I've never advocated this ever.
	Ever.
	I believe you live with the results of an election.
	But the authority to ruin millions of people's lives?
	I mean ruin, my friends.
	The idiocy of the closing of schools?
	The idiocy?
	The depriving of children for a year?
	When we could have solved a vast...
	What percentage of the problem with hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin?
	It sickens me that we didn't go for early cure and we went for hospitalization and vaccine.
	There's something so deeply corrupt in the medical establishment that there are no words to describe how terrible the situation is.
	The FDA, the NIH, they're corrupt.
	They're morally corrupt.
	The journals are morally corrupt.
	They write now on politics.
	They write about racism.
	Even they admitted, what was it that Lancet said it was a farce?
	They admitted their publication.
	What was that about?
	The publication, was it unmasked?
	What was it about?
	Was it HCQ? Yeah.
	It's all been corrupted because everything the left touches, it ruins.
	The medical establishment.
	There are a lot of wonderful individual doctors, and I always mention doctors have saved my life.
	That has nothing to do with the medical establishment.
	What Donald Trump did, and I never would have predicted this, I was totally naive in this regard, and I hate being naive.
	It's a sin for an adult to be naive.
	I didn't know how deep the deep state was.
	I had no clue.
	The amount of corruption at the FBI and CIA and everything else, virtually every institution in the country, including the medical institutions, I didn't know.

	The same people that for four years claim that Donald Trump was illegitimate, 78% of them believe that the Russians changed the outcome of the election, even though our intelligence community has never reached that conclusion, and you have even though our intelligence community has never reached that conclusion, and you have the nerve to accuse Donald Trump of being delusional when he insists that the election

	You've got election officials like this woman in Michigan?
	Mixed with clerical errors, but a lot of them are considered fraud.
	I would have referred all of them to the Attorney General if it were me.

	The extension of the deadline in Pennsylvania, which I think is one of their solid cases.
	It's working its way up, hopefully, to the Supreme Court.
	Hopefully, they'll take this.
	Far more evidence, far more ammo, far more smoke than you ever had about Bush-lied people died, about Trump-Russia collusion.
	But Donald Trump is delusional for wanting to make sure he lost fair and square, assuming that he did.

	This is one of the reasons I'm for capital punishment.

	Forget the lies and the mendacity of the candidate in question whose name was circled in.
	A man who is incompetent, clinically incompetent, to hold any position of responsibility.
	Would you let this man walk your dog?
	Let alone be in control of the nuclear weapons of the most powerful nation in the world.
	A man who can't string clear sentences together without talking about how hirsute, how hairy his legs are, and how little children wanted to pat them down in the swimming pool.
	Good God, man!
	Why aren't you in an asylum?
	It's not the fact.
	That he's been a machine politician for 47 years, hiding in his basement, unable to hold a rally through sheer cowardice, or because he knows nobody would go.
	It's not the fact that all of his co-conspirators who he colluded with, yes, real collusion, utterly and completely Deep-sixed the story with all its evidence of his son's corruption facilitated whilst he was vice president.
	Corruption involving the biggest communist nation in the world.
	A nation that has slave labor camps.
	President-elect Biden will nominate Lloyd Austin to be Secretary of Defense.
	Now, would you engage with me on it on whether or not Lloyd Austin will be a good nominee on the Senate Armed Services Committee?
	Well, Hugh, first let me say that I respect and admire Rudolph's service to our nation over 40 years in uniform.
	And I suspect that he might get quickly confirmed to many positions in a Democratic or Republican cabinet, for that matter.
	However, there are serious misgivings in the Senate about having another recently retired general become the Secretary of Defense.
	You'll recall that federal law prohibits any general who's been retired for fewer than seven years to receive a waiver from the Congress to become the Secretary of Defense.
	Before Jim Mattis in 2017, it had only happened once before for George Marshall in the 1950s.
	And one I would just highlight to you is Jack Reed.
	He is the senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, and when he voted for that waiver in 2017, he expressed a reservation about doing so.
	He said it should be a once-in-a-generation moment and that he would not in the future support another waiver for a recently retired general.
	So if they've already lost the senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, it is from liberal Democrats to conservative Republicans in the Senate who share these concerns about civil-military relations inside the Pentagon.
	Do you share those concerns, Senator Cotton?
	Yes, I do.

	Eight or nine years ago, a friend of mine forced me to watch a documentary which proposed that LBJ had been behind the Kennedy assassination.
	Like most people, I began watching it with tremendous skepticism, almost derision, but as it went along, I became more and more convinced that the case for LBJ's involvement in the Kennedy assassination was very, very strong, so much so that I was deeply disturbed by it.
	I'm glad to know that somebody whom I respect, which is to say you, Well, first of all, I think the American people have an endless fascination with the murder of John F. Kennedy because it was televised in essence in every aspect.
	I think I used eyewitness evidence, fingerprint evidence, and a lot of deep Texas politics to demonstrate that Lyndon Johnson had the motive, means, and opportunity to kill John Kennedy.
	I put forward a lot of very, very Compelling circumstantial evidence.
	I'm not an attorney, but I dare anybody to read this book and not come away convinced.
	By the way, the book is the first book I've ever wrote, and it was a New York Times bestseller.
	Still does quite well.
	Put aside the question of the assassination of John Kennedy for a moment.
	It's also a profile of Lyndon Johnson.
	Who is essentially a functioning lunatic.
	I mean, he is a psychopath.

	So I want to get into this Texas news.
	I know that you're just aware of just kind of the process, and it's actually less about the particulars, but more just about the bigger picture.
	You're from Texas.
	You guys are headquartered in Texas, right?
	What was the news today that came out of Texas?
	Well, the news was that an original jurisdiction suit was filed on the election.
	Now, what that means is normally if you file a lawsuit, people think you can just go to the Supreme Court, right?
	No, you don't just go to the Supreme Court.
	The way you get to the Supreme Court is you go through either a state system all the way through the highest court of the state, and then if you feel there's an issue that the Supreme Court can address, you can go from the state Supreme Court to the U.S. Supreme Court, or you can go through the federal courts, the lower court, then the Court of Appeals, or you can go through the federal courts, the lower court, then the Court of Appeals, and then appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, and they take about less, they get about 8,000 So your odds are- Yeah.
	What happened in Texas is the state, in the Constitution, there is very few things that you can file and you go straight to the Supreme Court.
	And that is if one state goes after another state.
	And so what happened is Texas sued a number of these swing states saying, look, you are diluting our vote and hurting our ability to have a fair election when you don't follow the Constitution.
	in your state.
	And what the Constitution says is that each state gets to determine, not state, each state legislature gets to determine how you do your election.
	This is one of my favorite.
	That's why we use it as the Happiness Hour theme song.
	The only time we change the Happiness Hour theme.
	Burl Ives was a big lefty, and I don't care.
	I distinguish between people and their art.
	Oh my God, I am now looking at my five-year-old grandson wearing a mask.
	That is precious.
	My son, daughter-in-law...
	Are visiting from Florida.
	They decided they want to understand what does it mean to be locked down.
	All right, everybody.
	It's the happiness hour on the Dennis Prager Show every Friday.
	Doesn't matter.
	The Friday after 9-11.
	The Fridays of the COVID era.
	It's really the lockdown era.
	I have the happiness hour.
	So I want to raise a subject with you today, and that is children and the lockdown and happiness.
	I have talked to you quite a number of times about couples and their happiness or lack of happiness.
	How has it affected you as a couple, the lockdown?
	Everybody says COVID, but they're being dishonest.
	COVID is not what is killing people.
	Of course it's killing people, but it's not what's killing society.
	Society is being killed by the lockdown.
	Individuals are being killed by the virus.
	There is a big difference.
	Viruses have always killed individuals.
	Heart disease kills far more than COVID. I suspect cancer kills more than COVID. But it doesn't kill society.
	The lockdowns do.
	So I have a question, and I don't know the answer, obviously.
	Sometimes I have a theory.
	I don't have a theory here, but I will bounce off some ideas while you call in.
	How has the lockdown affected your college kid, your high school kid, your elementary school kid, your grandkid?
	How has it affected them?
	I have no doubt that there are cases where it's actually been a plus.
	More family time, etc.
	I'm not looking for negatives.
	I'm looking for the truth.
	I think more have been adversely affected than positively affected.
	But your calls will be educational.
	1-8 Prager 776-877-243-7776 Maybe I'll hear from my grandson for a moment while you guys call in.
	Yeah, you know what?
	Hey, so Jack, would you like to come on the radio?
	Jack Prager may make his radio debut.
	All right.
	Oh, you want it to be his poppy's microphone or his own?
	Yes, he wants his own microphone, not poppy's microphone.
	That's fine with me.
	So Jack.
	Do you like wearing a mask?
	You've got to put his mic on and he's got to go.
	Go ahead.
	You don't like wearing a mask?
	I don't.
	See that?
	There you go, ladies and gentlemen.
	Dennis Prager's grandson.
	So, by the way, I heard that you know a lot of capitals.
	Is that true?
	Yeah.
	How many do you know?
	Ten.
	Really?
	You know ten capitals?
	Well, I'm so sorry.
	Oh, you did.
	Okay, so I'm going to ask you some.
	And Jack, it's a big deal to know the capitals.
	I'm very proud of you that you have learned some of them.
	And I'm just going to...
	There we go.
	Alright, ready?
	We'll start with your state.
	What state do you live in?
	Florida.
	And what's the capital of Florida?
	Tallahassee.
	Good man, that's a big name.
	What state are you in now?
	California.
	That's right, and what's the capital of California?
	Sacramento.
	Ladies and gentlemen, you could actually measure the self-esteem.
	Rising as he gets each one right.
	The smile on his face.
	This is what I mean by earning self-esteem.
	This is the beauty.
	Alright, here's a toughie.
	This is where your uncle lives.
	Pennsylvania.
	Harrisburg.
	Do you know how many Americans know the capital of Pennsylvania?
	Three.
	No, outside of Pennsylvania.
	I think they all know.
	Did you know it?
	I consider Pennsylvania one of the five toughest.
	Okay, so here's another good one.
	Ready?
	Alaska.
	Juno.
	I do know.
	Juno?
	Yeah.
	I know too.
	Jack is relishing the right answers.
	This is great.
	Jack, I'm very proud of you because that took work.
	How many states are there?
	Do you know that?
	Take a guess.
	Ten.
	This is a beautiful thing.
	I know ten states' capitals, therefore there are ten states.
	Missed it by last month.
	You're choking me up.
	That was terrible.
	You can't do that.
	Oh, look, Jack's on the screen.
	It's too much.
	The relief factor screen.
	Anyway, Jack, welcome to California.
	It's great to have you.
	I love you very much.
	And I'm going to go back to my radio show.
	Bye.
	Bye.
	Excellent.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Well, that was an interlude.
	It's perfect for the happiness hour.
	Truly, truly perfect.
	I have two grandsons, and they are, Jack is the younger and Daniel is the older, and it was not intentional, but Jack Daniel are my grandsons.
	I was slightly intentional.
	Do you know, it's very interesting, the love of alcohol gene skipped a generation with me.
	My father loved his scotch.
	My son loves his scotch.
	And I am oblivious to the world of alcohol.
	It's not a moral issue.
	It's not just something I don't enjoy.
	All right, everybody.
	That was fun.
	It's good to have them visiting here.
	All right.
	How has the lockdown affected your kids?
	By the way, your kid might be 30. It doesn't necessarily have to be one living at home.
	But I'm very, very curious how it's affected people.
	Columbus, Ohio, JR, thank you for calling.
	Hello.
	Hey, Dennis.
	Well, that kid just made my entire Friday.
	Oh, really?
	That's sweet.
	Thank you.
	That's the truth.
	So anyway, it's been up and down, Dennis.
	I would say, unfortunately, a little more down than up.
	But, you know, my children are 17 and 19. And this has taken a toll.
	It didn't at first, but it's getting old.
	And it doesn't matter how many emails we send to their schools or their college.
	It just doesn't matter.
	They are keeping everything shut down, and they just...
	They just extended it again.
	Literally just extended it.
	Yes, I know, for no good reason whatsoever.
	So are they living at home?
	My daughter is, and my son is sporadically.
	He lives between us and his uncle, who lives near the university.
	Do your kids see friends?
	Oh, all the time.
	Oh, thank God.
	All the time.
	So when you say it's been sort of a seesaw or a roller coaster, what's the downside?
	Well, if I had to put it into a word, I think depression is too strong of a word.
	But, you know, you watch your kids for 17 plus years.
	And you realize when something's wrong, the problem is something could be wrong for one day when you deal with it.
	Well, this has been wrong for months.
	Yes.
	And it's obvious to you.
	Oh, it's obvious to my wife and I. It's blatantly obvious.
	Yes.
	So we have done our very, very best to keep things as positive as possible.
	Well, that's beautiful.
	Alright, so we have here mixed bag, but more sad or depressed than upbeat.
	The effect of the lockdown on your children's happiness.
	That's the subject of the Happiness Hour on the Dennis Prager Show.

	You know, I forgot to say, I said, how is, on the happiness, this is the happiness hour, second hour every Friday, I'm Dennis Prager, and I said, call in about how the lockdown has affected your kids' happiness, whether your kid could be 25.
	I don't care, could be five, but I should have said, if you're a kid, how has it affected you?
	Because I see, I have a call here from a 26-year-old.
	And I should have welcomed calls from the affected themselves.
	My theory is that overwhelmingly it's been negative.
	I obviously, in any individual case, anything could happen.
	I realize anything could happen.
	And I hope that for some it's been positive.
	But overwhelmingly, How could it be a positive?
	Cheated out of school, cheated out of friends, scared to death of something that is so statistically insignificant to young people.
	I never walked around as a young person in America with a scared adult generation.
	This is another feature of the leftist influence of this country.
	It's not good for kids to see scared adults.
	You're a scared generation, my generation, and especially the 40s, 50-year-olds.
	They're really scared out of their minds because they went to college.
	I'll bet you that there is a correlation between fear and having attended college.
	Graduate school, you're probably quaking in your boots.
	Unless you think and fight independently, you are going to be hurt as a human being intellectually, morally, and emotionally by going to college and graduate school.
	They're wastelands.
	They're sick wastelands.
	The effect of the left on the college has been utterly devastating, and now it's happening to high schools and elementary schools.
	But I do want to restate that earlier point.
	As a young person, I looked up to adults who revealed courage and strength in the onslaught of adversity in life, and now cowardice is a...
	This whole notion, When I come into office sick, just give me a hundred days of mask wearing.
	This is the message.
	And, of course, the president was completely mocked.
	Mocking is an art form on the left.
	And his notion of poo-pooing of the thing and letting people live a normal life was, of course, he was mocked.
	Exactly what should have happened.
	In the history of the world, the healthy have not been quarantined like this.
	250 million people marched in India.
	All right, anyway, I don't want to get into...
	Well, I am getting into that, but I don't want to continue.
	I want to hear from you and how it's affected you.
	All right, so Don in Minneapolis, hello.
	Hello, Dennis.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	Yes, sir.
	Well, I'd like to start by saying I'm...
	One of the few college students who's smart enough to reject the lie that I'm too smart to vote for our great president, Mr. Donald Trump.
	Go on.
	So right now I'm a senior in the computer science program.
	This year is stressful under normal circumstances.
	Right now all of my classes are Delivered online and I feel like I'm certainly getting inadequate instruction.
	So right now, how I'm saying it, I'm paying the same amount of money for a lower quality degree and a more stressful senior year.
	Why didn't you take the year off and keep your money?
	Well, Dennis, I'm 26 years old right now and I've been...
	Working hard.
	I've switched majors a few times.
	I finally landed in computer science.
	I've got about 26 credits left, and I'm ready to get this degree wrapped up.
	I understand.
	Have you been...
	Go on.
	Well, when I signed up for classes this coming up spring, this was before I knew about a vaccine, so I'm sitting here thinking...
	Man, especially in a liberal state like mine, how hard are we going to push to keep everything locked down?
	Is this going to go on for, you know, God knows how long?
	So, have you been with friends a lot less?
	How would you rate it?
	Oh, do you know what, Dennis?
	I don't...
	I am pretty much ignoring everything that...
	My governor is telling me, except for the things I can't ignore, like not being able to dine inside, me and my friends get together regularly and we do not wear masks.
	Well, that will ultimately serve you so much better than being a sheep.
	A young person who defies the Democratic governors and mayors Is going to be a happier and better human being for it.
	It means that they think.
	It means they have courage.
	It means that they are rational.
	The chances of this...
	What was he, 26?
	Yeah.
	The chances of a healthy 26-year-old dying from COVID are minuscule.
	I mean, truly minuscule.
	To have deprived him of school, to have deprived him...
	Of anything resembling a normal life has been a crime, and people have gone along with it.
	Okay, I appreciate that call.
	And Rebecca in St. Petersburg, Florida.
	Hello.
	Hey, Dennis.
	So I have three kids.
	I have one that's a college sophomore, and he is typically very laid back, you know, a really chill kind of kid.
	And probably about six months ago, I started noticing him just, you know, like being a nag, being very negative about everything.
	And it took me a while to realize that I really, truly think it's just situational, everything that's going on.
	And so he and I started talking.
	And his negativity, you know, mind you, we come from Florida, where we have probably the most sensible governor in the country, right?
	Christy Noem.
	He and Christy Noem in South Dakota.
	But go ahead.
	You're very lucky.
	Wouldn't they make a great team?
	Yes, they would.
	That's right.
	We're looking four years ahead.
	But anyway, and his negativity mostly comes from the ignorance in the lockdown and the masking and all this.
	You know, and it's kind of like he's almost lost hope, and especially after the election, he's lost a lot of hope in his future as an American.
	And that is so sad to me.
	Yes, yes, it is.

	Trending now on the Hugh Hewitt Show. - That President-elect Biden will nominate Lloyd Austin to be Secretary of Defense.
	Now, would you engage with me on it, on whether or not Lloyd Austin will be a good nominee on the Senate Armed Services Committee?
	Well, Hugh, first let me say that I respect and admire Wardoff's service to our nation over 40 years in uniform.
	And I suspect that he might get quickly confirmed to many positions in a Democratic or Republican cabinet, for that matter.
	However, there are serious misgivings in the Senate about having another recently retired general become the Secretary of Defense.
	You'll recall that federal law prohibits any general who's been retired for fewer than seven years to receive a waiver from the Congress to become the Secretary of Defense.
	Before Jim Mattis in 2017, it had only happened once before for George Marshall in the 1950s.
	And one I would just highlight to you is Jack Reed.
	He is the senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, and when he voted for that waiver in 2017, he expressed a reservation about doing so.
	He said it should be a once-in-a-generation moment and that he would not in the future support another waiver for a recently retired general.
	So if they've already lost the senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, it is from liberal Democrats to conservative Republicans in the Senate who share these concerns about civil-military relations inside the Pentagon.
	Do you share those concerns, Senator Cotton?
	Yes, I do.
	Thank you.

	Hi, Janet.
	Hello.
	Hello.
	Can you hear me okay?
	There's no reason I wouldn't.
	You're fine.
	Okay.
	First, I have to tell you, I just discovered you about a year ago, and I've been a talk radio person for years and years and years, and I just think you're the best.
	That's very kind.
	Why did you just discover me a year ago, then?
	I've lived all over the country.
	And just, you know, some radio stations don't carry you.
	Shame on them.
	Every radio station in America should cover the show.
	Absolutely.
	Even music stations.
	They should stop music for three hours.
	Alright, anyway, welcome aboard.
	What's on your mind?
	Well, I want to tell you about my son.
	He'll be 28 in less than one month.
	And he's a very patriotic fellow, and he's been trying to work, you know, find a job in the Washington, D.C. area, you know, federal government, to support his country.
	He finally did get a job that is going to offer him, hopefully, a career.
	Being in the Washington, D.C. area, he lives, he can only afford like a 500 square foot apartment.
	Doesn't even have a stove in it.
	But anyway, he had to start his brand new job teleworking.
	So he really hasn't had much interaction with any of his colleagues or his boss.
	Only, you know, via Zoom or, you know, whatever.
	And do you feel it's affected as happiness?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	He's very interested.
	He's one of these young people.
	He's pretty straight and narrow.
	And he wants to get on with life.
	He wants to meet that special someone and get married and buy a home and have a family.
	Family, raised children.
	And everything has been delayed.
	It's an odd thing.
	I haven't felt that nearly as much because I have a family.
	I did find a special someone.
	I have a career.
	But a young person, everything has just been delayed.
	It's like taking a hiatus from life for a year.
	Disorienting thing.
	And I'm trying to use as mild an adjective as possible.
	Yeah, and it's been useless.
	That's the amazing thing.
	It's been medically useless.

	Sam, hello.
	Hello, Dennis.
	I have a 15-year-old and a 17-year-old.
	In high school.
	And this particular situation has made them, in themselves, staunch conservatives.
	Now, I've raised them, and I am conservative, and my son rides with me when we go on trips.
	He listens to talk radio, you included.
	And it has made him...
	He sees the idiocy and the hypocrisy in some of these lockdown restrictions, and he's become a conservative voice at his school.
	And in fact, the other day, there was a discussion going on about the response to COVID, and he called about, and he said, this is idiotic.
	We're being forced to wear masks outdoors at a football game.
	People are walking their dogs by themselves with a mask, driving by themselves with a mask, and this is all.
	And he said, look at all of the, and he uses a pejorative term, look at the libtard cities.
	They're all shut down.
	They're going broke.
	And he said, the reason why is because truth is not a left-wing value.
	Oh, I've heard that.
	You know, I need to think of that.
	Has the lockdown made people more conservative?

	And then go on to refer to Jesus as a poor Palestinian.
	I still can't.
	A prophet.
	A poor Palestinian prophet.
	That's from the pulpit of Raphael Warnock, and I just keep thinking, I think that's a big deal to Georgians.
	There's a lot of things that Raphael Warnock has said that should get Georgians' attention.
	I am so proud to be back here in the studios of AM920 The Answer in Atlanta, surrounded by a whole lot of patriots and people who are fighting hard for America.
	One of those warriors is Georgia Republican Congressman Doug Collins.
	He has served as U.S. Representative for Georgia's 9th Congressional District since 2013. And this is a guy who's no stranger to the faith either, because not only an attorney and a public servant, but a practicing military chaplain.
	Let's welcome Congressman Doug Collins to the Mike Gallagher Show, or should I call you Governor Collins?
	Mike, it's just Doug right now.
	We're doing good right now.
	Look, you hit on something right.
	I mean, I only talk about it.
	Just jump right into this.
	Sure.
	Raphael Warnock is not even mainstream for his own, you know, seemingly for his own faith and congregational beliefs and not for Georgia.
	And to say things like that, Jeff, you're right.
	That's a big deal in Georgia.

	California Governor Gavin Newsom has repeatedly called on Californians to come together and make sacrifices to fight COVID-19.
	The request would have been better received if, at the same time, Governor Newsom wasn't off violating his own public health guidance by dining with a group of lobbyists at one of America's most posh restaurants, or sending his kids to a Sacramento private school in person while many California schools remain closed for in-person learning and millions of students slog their way through online classes.
	The problem with Newsom's hypocritical actions is that they undercut the very healthcare professionals and scientists whose advice he is asking Californians to follow.
	It makes those of us who live in California wonder who we can trust and what guidance we should be listening to.
	At a time when we need leadership and clarity, Newsom has given us hypocrisy and confusion.

	How has this affected the young people in your life, or if you're a young person, your life?
	So it's been difficult for most of those calling in.
	And let's get a positive here.
	All right.
	Cameron is 21 years old, Greenville, South Carolina.
	Hello.
	Hello, Dennis.
	Thank you so much for having me on the show.
	Yes, sir.
	So I actually graduate tonight from a university.
	But we are a pretty small conservative university here in the upstate of South Carolina.
	But it's been really, it's been easy to not let myself be affected as much as people at other universities or other states.
	Because we have the guidelines, we have the mask mandates, but they're not as heavily enforced at my university and my job place.
	As well, so I've been extremely lucky in that regard.
	Well, you have.
	And why have they not enforced it?
	Is it a religious institution?
	It is.
	Most of the people there, you know, I would say that they recognize, you know, the hope that we have in Jesus Christ.
	We don't really need a mask to protect us.
	I think, and this is my own opinion, I think that our bodies are created to fight off infections.
	Inhibiting our oxygen to fight off infections.
	That's my own personal stance.
	It's just the conservative nature of South Carolina.
	So let me ask you a question, because I'm a religious person.
	I'm obviously not a Christian, I'm a Jew, but we share a lot.
	So do you believe that a believer is protected against virus because he's a believer?
	I think that if one claims to follow Jesus, I don't think that he's going to fear anything.
	No, no, I didn't ask that he'd fear anything, but in reality, do you think that of the 200,000 plus Americans they say died of COVID, none of them were believers?
	I really don't know.
	I'm sure maybe some of them were, but I don't think they're going to fall into the category of people who are just afraid of...
	No, no.
	The fear part...
	Let me explain.
	Thank you for your call.
	Let me explain to everybody why I ask.
	I don't want religious people to be known as less fearful because they think by being religious they can't get sick or die.
	Because religious people get sick and die.
	That's a fact.
	Everybody listening knows that.
	So we play into the hands of the anti-religious if we say, oh, I don't need a mask because I'm protected by my faith.
	I think you don't need a mask outdoors because you're protected by science.
	I'm a man of faith, but I've never believed God protects me from all illnesses, because it's just the fact that religious people die prematurely.
	Okay, that's an important discussion.
	Glad he called.
	And let's go to Kelly, Oceanside, California.
	Hello.
	Mr. Prager, it is an absolute privilege to talk with you.
	Thank you.
	Finally, first time caller, long, long time listener.
	Right.
	Well, if you started at five, you really could have listened all my years.
	I didn't start at five.
	Okay.
	I started when you were five.
	Let's put it that way.
	Yeah.
	All right, go ahead.
	Well, you know what?
	For us, personally, as a family, we're a big baseball family.
	I have six boys, and oldest is 15, youngest is one.
	And we're a huge baseball family, and I think the biggest hit, no pun intended, that we've taken in this whole thing is Little League.
	You know, the little leagues have just completely locked down.
	You know, I've been coaching for almost 10 years.
	My oldest has played baseball since he was, you know, six.
	And it's just, you know, it's just so sad to see them, you know, kind of be ripped off the baseball field, if you will, you know, from organized sports.
	And for no scientific reason.
	Correct.
	Yeah, correct.
	We've been...
	You know, we've been teaching our boys, my wife and I, we've been teaching our boys that, you know, it kind of piggybacks on, you know, the last caller that you just had, that we don't have to be afraid.
	You know, we're born-again believers as well.
	And, you know, maybe to answer the question that you gave the last caller, I don't think that my body is made any differently because I'm a Christian than the person next to me who's not.
	But, you know, we have the hope and the assurance that after this life we have one that's better.
	But that doesn't mean that my body is more or less susceptible than the person next to me.
	Right, exactly, exactly.
	I thank you.
	I should do a show on that.
	I should do an error on why religious people are less afraid.
	And I think that the belief that this is not all there is is one factor.
	Secularism comes with a lot of prices.
	This world is all there is.
	What is it?

	You know, God's more interested in how you act versus how, you know, what you think.

	It seems like an inconsistency.
	You know, if I didn't say this in that part, I know that I have said what I'm about to tell you in another part of my commentary.
	So here, I have an answer, and I think the answer is very valid.
	And that is this.
	Our actions are far more important than our intentions in all actions between human beings.
	Between humans and God, intentions matter more than actions.
	So that's the reason.
	In other words, if I am honest in my business dealings because I want to get a great reputation among people and ultimately even get some award from my company.
	That's just as good as any other reason, to be honest.
	If I give charity because I want my name on a building, that's just as good as giving charity without wanting your name on the building because you have helped people have a hospital building.
	You do good irrespective of your motive.
	And by the way, it's the same with bad.
	You can have great motives and do bad.
	That explains all the people who supported communism in the West.
	They supported the greatest mass murder in human history out of good motives.
	So, motives are useless.
	But with regard to God, then it matters.
	Because that's not affecting other human beings.
	Does that make sense?
	It does.
	Can I ask you a follow-up question?
	Okay.
	So then, if you hate your mom and dad, but God says to honor your mom and dad, you know, in God's eyes, are you still not doing good?
	Because he knows that you...
	Or, you know, you hate them and you don't...
	No, no, but that's between human beings.
	That's not between man and God.
	That's between man and man.
	Honoring your parents is a human-human issue, not a human-God issue.
	And that is the reason that I do explain when I explain the Ten Commandments.
	That...
	You're not told to love your parents.
	You're told to love God.
	You're told to love the stranger.
	You're told to love your neighbor.
	But you're not told to love your parents.
	A lot of people cannot love their parents.
	Honor your parents means, among other things, it means preserve parental authority.
	And every cult and every totalitarian regime undermines parental authority.
	Which is why one of the many reasons I believe the left is a cult and totalitarian.
	It is very much dedicated to undermining parental authority.
	Okay.
	And what he said is, if you hate your parents but nevertheless honor them, well, that's why I explained that It doesn't matter.
	In fact, you're on a higher moral level than the guy who loves his parents and honors them.
	The guy who hates his parents and honors them has achieved a greater status on the moral ladder than anybody else.
	Okay, let's see here.
	It's so interesting how many calls I get on Friday that have a religious question.
	Which is fine with me.
	There are not many talk shows that combine religion and politics and everything else.
	Because in the fundamentals of life, they are religious questions.
	The divide in this country of left and right is ultimately a religious issue.
	The right believes in order.
	Order implies God.
	The left believes in disorder.
	Defund the police is a perfect example of literally believing in disorder.
	The Los Angeles new district attorney who will just release vast numbers of criminals from prison because there are too many minority members in prison.
	Who will not prosecute cases of trespass?
	People can come on your lawn and do anything they want, and they will not be prosecuted in Los Angeles.
	Well, I hope that that just prompts people to conclude that this is not a city worth living in.
	And I say it with sadness.
	I've lived here for 35 years.
	It was once a wonderful place, California.
	And then people decided to elect Democrats.
	That's the reason.
	It's the only reason for the staggering decline of this state.
	What is it?
	I came up with a phrase this week.
	Conservative is a liberal mug by the left.
	We'll be back.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	The problem with Newsom's hypocritical actions is that they undercut the very healthcare professionals and scientists whose advice he is asking Californians to follow.
	It makes those of us who live in California wonder who we can trust and what guidance we should be listening to.
	At a time when we need leadership and clarity, Newsom has given us hypocrisy and confusion.
	California's voters won't soon forget his shortcomings.
	I'm Lon He Chen.
	The same people that for four years claimed that Donald Trump was illegitimate, 78% of them believe that the Russians changed the outcome of the election, even though our intelligence community has never reached that conclusion.
	And you have the nerve to accuse Donald Trump of being delusional when he insists that the election was a fraud?
	Given all of these allegations, far more allegations for this than you ever had for the idea that Bush-lied people died.
	Far more evidence than you ever had that Donald Trump was colluding with Russia, yet there was a two-and-a-half-year investigation.
	How dare you?
	You've got election officials like this woman in Michigan?
	Mixed with clerical errors, but a lot of them are considered fraud.
	I would have referred all of them to the Attorney General if it were me.
	And we got all these other allegations.
	The extension of the deadline in Pennsylvania, which I think is one of their solid cases.
	It's working its way up, hopefully, to the Supreme Court.
	Hopefully, they'll take this.
	Far more evidence, far more ammo, far more smoke than you ever had about Bush-lied people died, about Trump-Russia collusion.
	But Donald Trump is delusional for wanting to make sure he lost fair and square, assuming that he did.
	You guys have a lot of nerve.

	Sean has a theory as to why I get a lot of calls on religion, especially from young people.
	And I think there's some merit to it.
	The religious world, wonderful people by and large, but is quite incapable in most cases of making the case for God and religion.
	And I know how to make that case, and so young people through the show and PragerU know that, and they call.
	Makes sense.
	That's why my...

	Thank you.
	Well.
	I called about a month ago.
	I'm the guy that had two Chicago police officers' parents.
	I don't know if you remember.
	I just wanted to call you and thank you again for what you do.
	And I really do appreciate...
	What is it that I do that you're thanking me for?
	Well, every time I listen to you, I'm learning, man.
	I've never been really political, but I'm going to tell you what, this selection has woke me up.
	And the way you explain things makes me get it.
	That's good.
	That is good.
	Thank you.
	That should be a sort of motto of the show.
	The way he explains things makes you get it.
	That's right.
	I have been blessed, and I totally consider it a blessing, I had it at a very young age, of clarity and how to make things that seem complex.
	Some things are complex, but even they can be simply explained in their complexity.
	All right, y'all.
	Let's go.
	Steve in Tarzana, California.
	Hello.
	Yeah, hi, Dennis.
	How are you doing?
	Okay.
	In the paper this morning, Sweden had changed their approach to the disease and are really tightening up now.
	The figures have gone up, way up.
	So I thought you should know that.
	Yeah, I do know that.
	And I don't know if the figure's gone way up as a relative statement.
	It depends what you compare it to.
	I think that Sweden has simply buckled the pressure by epidemiologists, a group that I don't have respect for, with some exceptions.
	I haven't had respect for this group for about 30 years.
	I knew that there was a certain...
	Non-commitment to truth in epidemiology when they announced that 50,000 Americans die a year of secondhand smoke.
	They made up the figure.
	It's probably a pure lie.
	But it doesn't matter to them.
	It's a strange profession, but it doesn't matter.
	There are some terrific people like Dr. Risch at Yale.
	And I asked him on the show.
	I said, I just want you to know, and you're certainly free to say how terrible my attitude is, but when I hear someone's an epidemiologist, I assume something foolish is going to be said, even though I recognize that there are many individually wonderful epidemiologists.
	Anyway, the epidemiologists in Sweden are very angry that they went their own road.
	They, too, believe that it is best to deprive people of freedoms, and then everybody will be healthier.
	Okay?
	And, of course, people, I know all the arguments.
	I know this epidemic really, really well.
	I have immersed myself in it.
	So the argument goes, well, in fact, I'll get up the statistics right now, and I'll tell you where I go.
	I go to worldometers.
	So I'm going to put in Sweden, coronavirus deaths, and we will hopefully get to, there it is, Worldometer.
	So Sweden, let's see, new cases, I don't care about cases, cases is a joke.
	So daily deaths did spike.
	It went to, let's see, 68 on November 25th.
	It was 7 yesterday and 15 the day before, and 19 the day before, and so on.
	Okay, so if you look at the chart, you see a real flat line basically going from July 14th to October 27th.
	There was almost nothing, almost no deaths.
	And then it started to spike in November and continuing a little bit into December.
	Now, let me show you the world here.
	Let's go to countries, and I'll tell you where they are.
	Located on the country's chart.
	There we go.
	So death cases, deaths per million.
	Sweden ranks...
	I'm looking where they usually are.
	There it is.
	Sweden is 25th in the world.
	Sweden ranks 25th in deaths per million.
	I don't know why.
	And didn't shut down.
	People went to school, walked around without masks.
	I just want you to understand how low it ranks and yet didn't do any of the locking down.
	And overwhelmingly, it's deaths.
	As of two days ago, they had seven deaths, by the way.
	So, I don't think that Sweden needs to lock down.
	I think that the pressure in Sweden, it was popular among the people.
	It was never popular among the scientists.
	They wanted to deprive people of their liberties for no good scientific reason from the beginning.
	Belgium, Peru, Italy, Spain, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, UK, USA, Argentina, France, and more.
	have worse records than Sweden.

	And you know, I want to go back to Raphael Warnock's really radical rhetoric over the years But before we do that, as I know you know, Congressman, all we hear, all I hear from my listeners, not only here in Georgia and the 17 affiliates we have all throughout the state, but all throughout the country, people are almost apoplectic about election integrity and what many believe to be a fraudulent election.
	I have to ask you, as somebody who knows Georgia, you know the lay of the land as well as anybody in the world.
	What do we tell people, what do you tell people who are worried about the legitimacy of the Senate runoffs?
	Is there oversight?
	Is there accountability?
	Are they going to be able to cheat their way into putting a couple of radicals like Ossoff and Warnock into the Senate?
	Well, number one, no.
	Not if our conservatives show up.
	But I also will say this.
	Look, I've been posting this for the president at his request, looking at the original pan recount, which we asked for.
	And look, we found over 10,000, almost 10,000 ballots, I believe it was.
	There's 3,000 votes for the president that were never even counted.
	We found places in which there was no oversight.
	There was no observers.
	These are things that now, as I've been telling folks over and over, we're in the middle of this cycle.
	We've got to get this stuff fixed.
	I would love to see the signature verification.
	The Secretary of State decided he don't want to do that.
	For whatever reason, Lieutenant Governor, Governor won't pressure.
	You know, they've talked about it, but they don't do anything about that side.
	So the signature verification is something that is important.
	But let me remind people, before November 3rd, we were talking about it, we were watching it, but now since then...
	For the January 5th election, I believe Sunshine is the greatest to disinfect it.
	Now, I've been talking about it.
	Others have been talking about it.
	The president himself the other night said, look, we're gonna have people watching this.
	I think the governor could actually appropriate some funds, make sure that there are more ballot observers watching these drop boxes and do things like that.

	Colin, hello.
	Hello?
	Hello.
	Dennis, can you hear me?
	I do.
	How are you, man?
	Okay.
	So I wanted to get your thoughts on, I just saw Fox News reported that Texas is mulling over, seceding.
	What do you think about that?
	I haven't heard that, to be honest, but I will tell you, it may shock all of you, my instinctive reaction is, first of all, if Texas seceded, you can't secede.
	Alright?
	That's why we had a civil war.
	States wanted to secede.
	But let's say, theoretically, that somehow or other, Texas seceded.
	Texas would not be alone.
	At least another dozen states would join it.
	And I would move there.
	The level of moral, intellectual corruption in California is so profound.
	That this is not America as I have understood it, as I have loved it, as I have grown up in it.
	California has, in effect, seceded from America.
	That's the way I would put it.
	If states like Texas seceded, they would be seceding from the states that really did secede.
	New York City has seceded.
	San Francisco has seceded.
	Portland has seceded.
	Seattle has seceded.
	Tell me what Seattle has in common with American values.
	Nothing.
	Nothing.
	Seattle is physically located in the United States of America.
	But so are the southern states that practice slavery.
	In Seattle and Portland and other places, you can burn and loot.
	And destroy, and nothing happens to you.
	This is not common in American history.
	So, in those cities, in LA now, with the San Francisco District Attorney having been elected, with no cash bail necessary, and...
	You are no longer prosecuted for stealing up to $900.
	By the way, that's daily.
	So you can steal in the course of a week, let's see, thousands of dollars.
	Not prosecuted for trespassing, which I wonder if people went on...
	Started building tents on the lawn of this guy Gascon, the radical un-American district attorney.
	If people did on his lawn the trespassing that he now will not prosecute, would he rethink his position?
	I don't know.
	They're true believers, so I don't think they would.
	So, I believe that California has already seceded.
	That's my bottom line, as have Oregon and Washington.
	Okay, appreciate your call there, Colin.

	And additionally, we have a personal voter card that you get in the mail three, four weeks before the election.
	And then you have to Leave that at the polling place and show photo ID. So they cross off the voter card to a ledger and there's no vote by mail in Sweden.

	Well, I've been listening to Prettytopia for, like, since basically the beginning.
	I got interested in American politics in 2004, Bush, Kerry.
	And then I started listening to talk radio and eventually play Utopia.
	Do you share my values or just find it very interesting?
	Yeah, I would say I do.
	I'm a more conservative person here.
	How many are like you in Sweden?
	Good question.
	I would say not a lot.
	Not many.
	Do you have any close friends with conservative values?
	Yes.
	I would say my wife and some friends, yes.
	Well, thank God for your wife shares that.
	All right, so I want to review for my listeners' sake.
	So here we have Simon calling in from Sweden.
	He's a Swede.
	And he explained that in Sweden you need a photo ID. There is no mail-in balloting unless you are outside of Sweden.
	And this...
	So you don't register to vote?
	So, in effect, everyone is registered.
	So you get a registry card, like a personal voter card, and then that's your registration.
	And does it have your photo on it?
	No, it has my personal number, like a social security number.
	Do you have to show a photo ID when you vote?
	Yeah, yeah.
	So you leave the card and you show a photo ID. Right, exactly.
	Okay.
	Yeah, and you can vote by proxy, but you have to hand deliver the ballot.
	You can't just mail it in.
	So if you're infirm or...
	If in America we adopted that, if there was no mail-in vote, which is what I believe we should have, no mail-in vote, because the Democrats have ruined it here, but if we had what you had, It would be a much more honest election.
	They say in America that if you have to show a photo, you're suppressing the black vote.
	Yeah, I know.
	I've heard you say that.
	It's a bad joke.
	It's an insult to blacks.
	All right, what else did you want to tell me?
	You were going to comment on Sweden and the lockdown.
	Well, yeah, if you want to, we can talk about that.
	From Monday, you can only gather eight people in public gatherings.
	Outdoor and indoor or only indoor?

	It's recommended against.
	But if I would...
	Organize something, I could be fine for that.
	I'm not sure if anyone has.
	Do people walk around Swedish cities with masks on?
	Well, not where I'm at.
	It's very rare to see someone wearing a mask.
	What about in Stockholm?
	Actually, not sure.
	It might be more common.
	I haven't been there in a while.
	Well, listen, I'm very touched that you listen, and thank you very much.
	It means a lot.
	We have a lot of listeners around the world, and Prager, you especially, a tremendous number.

	So much so that I was deeply disturbed by it.
	I'm glad to know that somebody whom I respect, which is to say you, has written a book about it.
	Well, first of all, I think the American people have an endless fascination with the murder of John F. Kennedy because it was televised, in essence, in every aspect.

	And a lot of deep Texas politics to demonstrate that Lyndon Johnson had the motive, means, and opportunity to kill John Kennedy.
	I put forward a lot of very, very compelling circumstantial evidence.
	I'm not an attorney, but I dare anybody to read this book and not come away convinced.
	By the way, the book is the first book I've ever wrote, and it was a New York Times bestseller.
	Still does quite well.
	Put aside the question of the assassination of John Kennedy for a moment.
	It's also a profile of Lyndon Johnson, who is essentially a functioning lunatic.
	I mean, he is a psychopath.
	He is a drunk.
	He is a pill popper.
	He is a womanizer.
	He's a sadist.

	So I want to get into this Texas news.
	I know that you're just aware of just kind of the process, and it's actually less about the particulars, but more just about the bigger picture.
	You're from Texas.
	You guys are headquartered in Texas, right?
	What was the news today that came out of Texas?
	Well, the news was that an original jurisdiction suit was filed on the election.
	Now, what that means is normally if you file a lawsuit, people think you can just go to the Supreme Court, right?
	No, you don't just go to the Supreme Court.
	The way you get to the Supreme Court is you go through either a state system all the way through the highest court of the state, and then if you feel there's an issue that the Supreme Court can address, you can go from the state Supreme Court to the U.S. Supreme Court, or you can go through the federal courts.
	The lower court, then the Court of Appeals, and then appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
	And they take about 8,000 requests a year take 80 cases.
	So your odds are...
	100%.
	Yeah.
	What happened in Texas is, in the Constitution, there is very few things that you can file and you go straight to the Supreme Court.
	And that is, if one state goes after another state.
	And so what happened is Texas sued a number of these swing states saying, look, you are diluting our vote and her...
	I don't know who's singing this.
	This is not the usual.
	Oh, Buble.
	Oh.
	He's made a very successful career.
	He's good, yep.
	Alright, y'all.
	Dennis Prager here.
	And amazingly, I mean A-M-A-Z-I-N-G-L-Y. It is the last segment of the last hour of the last show of the week.
	Yes, I want you to get into the Christmas spirit.
	Even if you're not Christian, there's a Christmas spirit that is intoxicating.
	Do you know that Jews wrote most of the classic Christmas songs?
	Including, I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas.
	And they didn't stop being Jews.
	They just knew how beautiful the season in America was.
	And that's correct.
	I said something earlier, which I will repeat, and it's important.
	The left-wing states have already seceded from the United States, so they only stay there because of geography and a desire to transform the other states.
	Whoa!
	Did you hear that?
	Let me do that again.
	It's like when the plumber comes and the toilet works.
	I guess it's the worst feeling, isn't that?
	That is instant humiliation.
	Yeah, it could.
	Always what?
	No, yeah, that's exactly the computer.
	It doesn't matter.
	Whatever breaks works when the person shows up.
	Reminds me of a story.
	You will love.
	One of the zoos in Florida, I'm walking by and there are parrots about every, I don't know, hundred yards in cages.
	And I hear this parrot yelling out, F you.
	Yeah, the parrot was just doing that.
	So I'm with my four-year-old child, and otherwise I thought it was a riot, but my four-year-old child was with me.
	So I call over one of the people who work there and say, do you know what this bird says?
	I say, no, what does it say?
	And the bird just kept quiet.
	Yep.
	There's your story for you.
	Rob, Andy, Doug, Barry, Aaron, Patrick, George.
	Have a wonderful weekend.
	Thank you for calling.
