Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager and I welcome you to the show that is named after me.
Well, that's something in life, isn't it?
A show named after yourself.
I hope you have a good weekend.
That is my normal Monday greeting to you.
A lot of people aren't having good weekends.
Let's be clear.
You have to fight to make a good weekend.
Notice that the news is that we have peaked.
Have you heard that?
That we've sort of peaked and things are getting better.
That's a lot of different take.
It's like CNN. Why did CNN stop?
Oh yeah, didn't they stop announcing?
They had a board with the number of deaths.
Are you familiar with that?
And then it's no longer on.
Is that correct?
There's not a rumor.
I don't like broadcasting any rumors.
You have to rely on me, be able to rely on me, for the absolute accuracy.
But anyway, it wouldn't be surprising if that were to happen.
It's very hard to know what you begin with.
I'll tell you what I'm preoccupied with right now.
And it's not the impeachment.
Fiasco, which I will obviously address.
It is the pipeline, the XL pipeline.
The number of jobs ruined for no, truly, literally no good reason.
It's worse.
I'm sorry?
It's worse because it's going to get more dangerous.
No, and of course shipping crude oil will be more dangerous.
On MSNBC, of all places, they had an interview with the premier, that's what they call their governors of their provinces, the premier of Alberta, Jason Kenney.
And before I get to him, I just want you to understand, even the State Department, they had review after review under the Obama administration, and everybody knew it was good policy.
It was good for Canada.
It was good for the United States.
It was good for the consumer.
It was good for tens of thousands of workers.
There is no more fanatical movement, although I'm not sure that that's true.
Well, yes, I am sure.
There's no more fanatical movement.
There are equally fanatical movements to the environmentalists.
These people are crazed.
I regard them...
As essentially soulless.
And they need to fill that vacuum with some passion.
So they have a passion for ending any use of fossil fuels.
But they don't advocate nuclear power.
So it's all a moral and intellectual fraud.
There is clean energy, but they're opposed to it.
They have this romantic vision.
Of windmills throughout the world, those ugly, gigantic users of space, of rural areas, hopefully.
Who knows if they'll get more urban.
And that and the sun will just power us.
Of course, there will be some other crisis then.
My whole life, the left has created crises.
Life could have been in this United States.
Remarkably calm.
But the left is composed of people who hate calm.
Any of you who have a drama queen or a drama king in your family knows exactly what I'm talking about.
Calm drives them crazy.
There is no meaning to life if there is no excitement.
So they create excitement because their lives are boring.
That's the environmentalist movement, and it will destroy people's jobs.
It is composed of overwhelmingly upper middle class and upper class white people.
Isn't that interesting?
Because they're the most comfortable, generally speaking, in the society.
So they could afford to waste their time.
They could afford to put people out of work, just as Newsom could afford to put all the restaurants out of business.
These people aren't hurt by their policies.
It's one of the definitions of a left-wing politician.
Those who are not hurt by their policies, that hurt millions of others.
