Time Text
Thank you.
Yes, everybody, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show.
Germany is locked down again.
I just got the report.
Angela Merkel is always wrong.
Germany is almost always wrong.
It's just the rule of life.
I have great German friends.
Clearly, this is not a statement about all Germans.
But Germany is virtually always wrong, and Angela Merkel keeps up that tradition.
The bringing in of a million people from the Middle East was just the most recent big example.
And anyway, she's not alone in the mass idiocy that has governed the response to COVID-19.
Once known as the Wuhan virus, but that is no longer allowed because of racist overtones.
Isn't that amazing?
You can say the Hong Kong flu, I guess when Hong Kong was free, then it wasn't racist.
What a world.
What an upside-down world.
Tucker Carlson played CNN announcing that a white had committed the murders in Colorado.
That's all that matters to the left.
Can we blame a white?
It's really sick.
That it's racist is so obvious.
But here's the unbelievable dilemma for the left.
The guy is white.
If you look at a picture of him, you think it's a white guy.
So what constitutes white?
Why isn't he a white guy?
Because he's Syrian?
Interesting, no?
So what does white really mean?
I'll tell you what it really means.
It really means a white European Christian.
And not necessarily Christian.
It could be theoretically non-Christian.
But that's what it really means.
Because what is at the bottom of all of this is a hatred of Judeo-Christian values and middle-class bourgeois values.
Work hard.
Delay gratification.
Very simple rules of life.
The whole thing is so fraudulent.
The press is such a fraud.
I read to you yesterday, I believe it was, New York Times talking about an Asian American who was attacked.
Never mentioned that it was a black who did it.
Never mentioned that...
In the country, the largest number of attacks on Asian Americans are from blacks, though blacks only constitute, what, 12% of the population?
It's, I think, 24%, followed by, I think, whites, 21%, though whites constitute 50% of the country.
My point is not about blacks.
My point is about the lying media.
But if you rely on CNN or the New York Times, your distorted view of the world is guaranteed, just guaranteed.
It is amazing, the only perpetrators of any of these things that are identified by race are whites.
At spring break in Miami Beach, a college girl was raped and murdered.
By two black guys.
Is that in the news?
By the way, I'm not saying it should be in the news, but it surely would be.
Can you imagine if two white guys raped an Asian American girl?
Be one of the biggest items in the news.
Is that correct?
So why do you or your relatives or friends still rely on the left-wing media?
It's pure agenda, pure.
There isn't even a fake commitment to truth.
It's to social justice and wokicity.
This guy, there's an interesting sidebar to the Colorado monster.
Sure.
And that is that the FBI had him in their sights because of someone he was affiliated with.
But we don't know anything about that, do we?
So what could that mean?
You can guess.
You can guess.
That's right.
You can guess.
But I won't guess that loud.
I won't guess that loud.
Just for the record.
But you can guess.
Sean, is the FBI still on your trail, or is that happily over?
No.
You know what no comment means to most of my audience?
Just for the record.
Okay.
Let's see here.
Oh, my God.
This Asian American stuff.
There's so much.
I was telling somebody the other day, they were asking about doing a talk show.
It's probably a good rule for life in general, but I know that every one of my colleagues and I over-prepare.
Just as I regret when I see your names on the...
I have a list of callers that I can't take because I run out of time.
I have a list of subjects that are so worthy of your attention.
I started this one.
I can't get it out of my mind.
I want to share it with you because Canada is worse than the United States when it comes to freedom of press and political correctness.
First of all, Canada has no...
I don't know if they have a constitution.
A lot of countries don't.
It's not an insult.
But if they do, I don't believe that freedom of speech is enshrined as it is in the United States, though it's so ignored now that it might be academic.
Do you know that a Canadian man who was divorced, His daughter is becoming a boy, and by calling his daughter she, he's arrested.
Yeah, it's from the New York Post.
By the way, he can't even speak publicly about his son.
Oh, it's his son becoming a daughter.
He calls him he.
So he can't speak publicly and he's being arrested.
He was found in contempt of court and arrested for calling the teen his daughter and publicly referring to him with the pronouns she and her.
Incidentally, we have periodic visitors of kids.
I would say it's a boy and a girl, wonderful kids.
A friend of my stepson has these two kids.
And they often come over and sleep over.
And they were telling us that, or just the boy was telling us, and I would say, I don't know, maybe he's in fourth grade, maybe fifth grade, that two of the kids in his class want to be called they.
Why do you think that is, my dear listener?
Do you think it is because this is how these individuals really think of themselves as neither he nor she, and independent of the times in which one lives, they would have come up with this?
Or is it a way to get attention?
Now, of course, if the parent, a parent, would say, cut it out.
Cut it out.
You're she or you're he.
You're not they.
I really wonder, would the parent lose parenthood rights?
Would Child Protective Services take that child away?
You're not calling your child they?
I'll tell you, Hebrew speakers, Israelis, have an interesting issue.
You cannot say anything that isn't female or male in Hebrew.
Back in a moment.
1.9 trillion stimulus bill.
Nor does it count the money which was borrowed from Social Security, since that's considered intergovernmental debt.
Debt levels this high break the intergenerational covenant that we have with our children and grandchildren.
FDR borrowed to defeat the Nazis and Imperial Japan.
Money well spent.
Reagan borrowed to defeat the Soviet Union.
That was also money well spent.
These great projects made the world better for future generations.
But our political class is not buying victories against international threats.
They are buying political victories for incumbents.
This is nothing more than fiscal abuse and our kids will pay the price.
It needs to stop.
Now.

They don't think that America has the qualification to speak to China from a position of strength.
Cut 91. Well, I think we thought too well of the United States.
We thought that the US side will follow the necessary diplomatic protocols.
So for China, it was necessary that we make our position clear.
So let me say here that in front of the Chinese side, the United States does not have the qualification to say that it wants to speak to China from a position the United States does not have the qualification to say that it You understand what they're saying here?
They're saying that, oh, the United States doesn't have a position of strength.
You mean after you destroyed our manufacturing base, debased our currency, spied on our cyber grid, they're lecturing us about strength.
In one sense, they're right.
But the fact that they have the cockiness to say that goes to show exactly where the international order is headed.
And I'm going to tell you one thing that we should all be talking about when it comes to Joe Biden and China that we just seem to be forgetting and missing.
Music I am a teacher in an elementary school and a lot of our professional development is on racism because our school is very diverse in that population.
And one of the professional development we had was on diverse books and the lack of diverse books.
So basically the statistics they gave us was that This is from 2018. That 50% of all children's books that are published are based on characters who are white.
So 50% white.
27% are animals or other, you know, things besides people.
10% is based on blacks.
7% on Asian Pacific or Asian people.
5% on Latinos.
And then 1% on American Indians.
And how this is an example of systemic racism and it's very hard to find diverse books.
My first thought, Mary, is who sat around and added them all up like that?
I mean, that's just amazing to me.
That's stunning to me.
A good book is a good book.
A good character is a good character.
Huckleberry Finn has...
Okay, everybody, everybody, I want to remind you about a fantastic, really fantastic deal.
$30 a month on your phone bill.
You can save $800 over Verizon and T-Mobile, etc.
It's so unbelievable, unlimited talk, unlimited text, that I actually got a phone and signed up, and sure enough, it's basically, or not basically, the same thing.
It just is.
Pure Talk USA. And not only that, you can get the iPhone SE for just $7 a month.
But you can keep your phone if you want.
You can get a lot of phones there.
And you keep your number.
All you do is pound 250, pound 250, and say Dennis Prager.
$30 a month.
Unlimited text, unlimited talk.
Oh, yes.
Six gigabytes of data.
If you go over, they don't charge you.
It's a great deal.
Pound 250, say Dennis Prager.
We're living in a terrible crisis time.
The combination of anarchists and authoritarians is a combination.
Everything is to be torn down.
Middle class values.
Or hated.
Get a job.
Graduate high school.
Get married before you have a child.
Get married, period.
Delay gratification.
Very simple rules of making a good life.
Jordan Peterson has made that greatly clear in his rules for life.
Make your bed.
Yeah, that's right.
That's where it starts.
The board are taking over their board, so they need a mission.
The latest is Asian-American hate in the United States.
Read my column from yesterday.
I'm going to read you a column by an Asian-American who discovered how much he's hated.
It's like blacks who've written similar articles.
You know, I didn't realize until now how much hatred has been directed to me in my life.
It's like, let me join the herd.
Oh, I too am hated.
Asian Americans are the most productive, most successful ethnic group in American history, or at least in America at this time.
And they walk around in the Charles Blow mode of raising their children.
You don't know.
You have to watch it.
By the way, is there driving while Asian?
Haven't heard that yet.
Are Asians stopped?
Can I say that they're unlikely to be stopped because they tend to drive slower than others?
You know, I did a show on that.
Is every stereotype banned?
I saw a guy, God bless him, I can't imagine he would still have that bumper sticker on.
You know, what was it?
Something about, be careful, I'm an Asian driver or something like that.
At least here in California, in Southern California, there is a...
The general perception that they drive slower.
It's so fascinating that you can't even say that.
We have lost the ability to just speak.
Is there hatred in that, saying that there seems to be this tendency to drive slower?
Is there hatred?
Do you detect hatred?
I've taken people to Asia so often on my trips.
I'm such a fan of Taiwan, and the Vietnamese are among the most dynamic people on Earth.
The Chinese government is a threat to mankind.
Is that banned now?
It might be, because the left doesn't think in moral terms, it thinks in race terms.
That's right.
Everybody has a trinity.
Have you ever noticed that?
Christians are the best-known trinity.
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit.
Merrick has a trinity.
God we trust and liberty.
The Jews have a trinity.
God, Torah, Israel.
And the left has a trinity.
Race, gender, class.
It's an interesting pattern, the human race.
I'd just like to remind you, because it's so urgent, PragerU is fighting for this country and for liberty and Judeo-Christian values.
Helping the fighters is as good as fighting.
I just learned within the last half hour that whatever you give until the end of the month, is that right?
Somebody or some people have promised to give triple your amount.
You give us $100, we will get $300.
By the way, did I get that right?
We will get $300 from the person who triples.
Is that correct?
So we're getting $400.
If you give $100, are we getting $400?
Because they're tripling.
No, we get probably 300 total.
Right, that's what it makes sense.
PragerU.com Yep.
So this poor father in Canada going to jail.
His son has identified as male since the age of 11. And changed his name at the age of 12 before pursuing hormone therapy with the support of his mother.
A psychologist and an endocrinologist.
Isn't that something?
This woman has been poisoned by her advanced degrees.
She's helping...
How old did it say?
11 she's giving puberty blockers to an 11 year old yes right The father reportedly began litigation against a teen's mother after learning of the transition.
The father's refusal, this is Chief Justice Robert Bauman and Justice Barbara Fisher, in their January decision said, the father's refusal to respect the boy's decisions regarding his gender identity is troublesome.
Hmm.
The father's rejection of his son's identity, remember it was a daughter until 11, has caused the boy significant pain, unquote, that has, quote, resulted in a rupture of what both parties refer to as an otherwise loving parent-child relationship.
The rupture is not in the boy's best interests, the decision said.
He clearly wants and needs acceptance and support from his father.
The far left issued an arrest warrant on Thursday, March 4th.
I will be turning myself in on March 16th.
The man posted in a Go Get Funding page where he has raised more than $22,000 Canadian.
I am fighting the far left based on a civil disobedience defense.
I am now back in court for a five-day criminal trial that could land me in jail for up to five years for speaking truth about state-sponsored child abuse.
That's what it is.
It's state-sponsored child abuse.
I am blocked from sharing any videos at this time that oppose the sterilization of children.

What is the reality for you and your deputies when it comes to the last...
Fifty-eight days in America.
Have things changed for you when it comes to illegal migration in your county, Sheriff?
Oh, absolutely.
And it's been a disastrous change.
It is not a change that we welcomed or are enjoying, that's for sure.
You know, immediately overnight, we started having, I mean, the last two months, we've had 40-plus pursuits where they end in a bailout, which means that they run from us, they stop, everybody bails out of the vehicle into the desert.
Typically, they'll leave somebody behind.
Like, we had one where 12 people bailed out of the car and they left a 16-year-old Guatemalan girl behind because they know that we're going to have to deal with this unaccompanied minor while all of them go free into this country.
Last week alone, last Wednesday alone, we had 49 apprehensions in one day.
It's not uncommon for us to go out and have 20 apprehensions.
And mind you, I'm 60 miles off the border.
That's how far they're infiltrating into our country.
Camouflage clothes.
They don't want to be caught.
And here's what I and I know I'm kind of running on.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Our listeners, our viewers need to know.
So you tell us what's changed.
You know, and what I keep telling people, this isn't about immigration anymore.
This is about...
Human trafficking and drug trafficking into this country.
And if you care about human beings, it shouldn't matter what party you are.
If you care about protecting those people, then you should absolutely care about border security because the cartel is using these people to gain money.
They're raping the women.
They're using the children as ponds, which is clear as day right now.
And they extort the men.

*music* I mean, we know the Media Research Center did polling and found out among people who voted for Joe Biden, something like 30% didn't know the Hunter Biden story.
And those that heard about the Hunter Biden story said up to 17% of them would not have voted for Joe Biden if they had known.
This we know for sure.
This doesn't even, this isn't any kind of conspiracy theory.
We know that journalists interfered with this election in a way that journalists have never interfered with an election in the United States before.
By suppressing very pertinent information.
And for your listeners and your viewers, you know, what is that pertinent information?
And, you know, it's almost like a joke, actually, Eric.
And I think this film, actually, funny enough, will be funny and awfully sad and tragic and has a terrible punch in it.
But here's some of the details.
Here's a guy with a drug problem.
And, you know, we're Irish.
We exported alcoholism around the world.
We're quite sympathetic to people with addiction issues.
But here is a guy with a very serious addiction issue.
He goes to the Navy, he gets a special dispensation to go to the Navy as an older guy.
First day he's there.
He's thrown out because he got cocaine in his system.
And his story, his excuse for that... his excuse for that...
That's right. ...
I'm Dennis Prager.
The hysteria over alleged Asian-American racism in the United States continues.
It's a gigantic lie.
Like systemic racism against black is a gigantic lie.
I said it was the biggest national lie since the Jews were accused of poisoning.
Not poisoning, of using Christian children's blood to bake matzah.
Which reminds me, Saturday night is the Seder, the first Seder for those who have two.
The Seder, which in Israel they have one.
Outside people have often two.
In any event, it's Saturday night, Passover.
And for those of you not having a Seder, Christian or Jew, or Ayn Rand enthusiast for that matter, The Seder that I did live last year is on YouTube, and is at PragerU, actually, where it starts.
Just type in Dennis Prager Passover, and you'll get to it.
It's free, and it explains the Seder.
It's an hour and 20 minutes.
I do it with my friend, Dr. Stephen Marmer.
He was in his home, I was in my home.
Of course, I'm having a Seder with friends this time.
Not by Zoom.
Not by Zoom alone shall man live.
It's a biblical citation.
Some read it as bread, others read it as Zoom.
Zoom would be the appropriate one.
And certainly, Jews don't live by bread alone for Passover.
It's astonishing to me that there are Jews who will not have a Seder with other human beings unless they are so on the verge of death.
I say that with only compassion.
The irrational fears that have governed human behavior.
There's no evidence.
There is zero evidence for masks working outdoors.
There's minimal evidence for working indoors.
I consider one of the most frightening, not the most, One of the most frightening photographs that I have ever seen outside of the slaughter of innocents.
In fact, if you take away photos of the aftermath of violence, the scariest photo that I recall seeing in America.
Is that the President of the United States and the Vice President of the United States in a limousine, seated next to one another and wearing masks.
They are both vaccinated and no one else is there.
Except the driver who is presumably in front of a very thick glass divide.
And I'm sure he's vaccinated.
Guy's vaccinated with both the Pfizer and the Moderna, and he's waiting for the Johnson& Johnson.
And he probably had COVID too, so he has the antibodies on his own.
How could you admire Kamala Harris or Joe Biden taking a picture proudly of wearing a mask when they're the only two people in a place and they're both vaccinated?
How can you admire them?
Really?
I can't tell you.
I feel like I almost want to pay a caller to tell me why you admire that picture.
And it's not a picture of fools.
Two fools governing this country.
Two panic-mongering Fear-creating fools for President and Vice President of the United States of America.
The contempt that they are due for that photo runneth over.
This is what they proudly put out that tweet of themselves, post-vaccine, alone together, wearing masks.
These are the fools, the scaremongers, mongerers, who are president and vice president of the United States of America in the year 2021. I got approached by a lot of companies wanting me to endorse their products or services.
But in this case, I reached out on my own.
I've had decades of the pins and needles feelings, in my case in feet.
A lot of people have it, feet or hands.
And about ten years ago, I discovered that inserts correctly made by a podiatrist helped a lot.

NerveRenew.com I just got an email about someone who says they have to take mandated racial diversity seminar
training or whatever it is.
And all I have to say is that there is a piece of art, and I don't use that word lightly, that is so perfect, so funny, so politically incorrect, that hits this perfectly.
It's from the legendary show The Office.
Now, The Office started as an unbelievably politically incorrect...
Show.
And then it got into this kind of like quasi-woke thing later on.
But the episode Diversity Day with Steve Carell, it's so politically incorrect, especially in today's time.
I'm just going to tell you something right now.
If I dared repeat some of the lines here, it wouldn't even be an advertiser boycott.
It would be an advertiser invasion.
One of my favorite lines is Steve Corral looks into the...
Actually, this might be the pilot episode.
You see, I am...
I'm not an expert in a lot of things, but I am an expert in the central canon of the first season of The Office because it all went downhill from there.
I watched it later.
The first season of The Office is so well-written as if they don't care about...
They just said, we are going to swing for the fences.
Bottom of the ninth.
We want this show to catch on.
That they just took huge risks.
Steve Corral famously said, as Abraham Lincoln said, if you are a racist, I will attack you from the north.
I highly encourage you to check it out because we need to laugh about this stuff a little bit.

Listen, I fight hard for what I believe in every day, but I also try to understand where somebody who disagrees with my ideology or my politics, where they're coming from.
And so, in a way, maybe...
Maybe you do the same thing, and it kind of keeps us sort of out of the hot seat where we're not just trying to lob hand grenades to the other side, but we're trying to have a reasonable dialogue.
Yeah, I don't want any vitriol in my life.
I work very hard to avoid it.

The president and the vice president wearing masks after vaccination, and they're the only two people in the automobile.
Biff in Orange County, California.
Hello.
Hello.
Good morning, Dennis.
Nice to talk to you.
I'm a conservative from Orange County, but I do have one theory that might explain it, even though I don't believe it, but it would be the...
The general public, not everybody knows that they are vaccinated.
Maybe some people don't.
And so to comply with the law, even though the laws are ridiculous, and to be safe, even though the science is minimal, they don't want to send the wrong message to the general public who may not know that both of them have been vaccinated.
It's a very excellent explanation.
I think that there's merit to that.
There's merit to your explanation.
There's not a merit to what they did.
And so I salute you.
I'll tell you what message they're conveying.
You're an idiot if you get vaccinated.
That's the message of the president and vice president who are vaccinated and still wearing masks.
See, folks?
Nothing changes once you're vaccinated.
There you go.
That's the message.
If you could read any different message with regard to vaccine...
The vaccine, any vaccine, and they're wearing masks afterwards, and Dr. Fauci turns out to be a bigger fool, almost on a weekly basis.
I have no antipathy to him personally, but that he guides a nation into the dark, as he has, he will be a symptom of the sickness pervading this country and its medical establishment.
When historians, should historians actually write objective history at some point, and the entire historical writing process not taken over by the left, which is a danger certainly in your lifetime, but eventually I think things do get written and balance the record.
Yep, look at that.
The Vice President and I got vaccinated and we're still wearing masks.
Nothing has changed.
But hey, get vaccinated.
People, it's amazing.
People accept this message?
Every, to the best of my knowledge, virtually every, I said every, and it, but...
I have to leave room for the possibility of an exception, but I can't think of an exception.
There may well be.
Every institution has been essentially destroyed in its credibility.
We have a corruption that I never knew existed in the United States of America.
FBI, CIA, the AMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association.
The scientists' establishment in general, scientific American, public schools, elementary schools, private schools, colleges.
I mean, it's unbelievable.
The forces of anarchy and chaos have destroyed it all.
Talking about that, I want to read to you something.
I, as you know, am very involved in classical music.
I conduct orchestras periodically, and I study it constantly, and so on.
So listen to this New York Times article about the death of one of the leading conductors of the last generation, James Levine.
He was the conductor, among other places, of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra.
So their chief music critic...
Whom I have criticized in the past for...
He's the guy who said, Beethoven's Third?
What, are you crazy?
There's gamelan music.
Who are we to say Beethoven's Third is any better than Indonesian gamelan music?
So I've played for you gamelan music on a number of occasions on the show, and I have great respect for...
I actually love the music of different nations.
I do.
But Beethoven's third is on a different level.
Anyway, so I read his whole long piece on James Levine.
Now listen to these two sentences here.
Three sentences.
You would think a music director would be eager to put his name on new works, to prod his company, to foster the future.
But during a 2013 interview with Charlie Rose, Levine pushed back against the suggestion that the Metropolitan Opera should present a new opera each season.
Quote, I wish I really thought there was a new opera good enough for the Met every year, he said.
It was a dismaying comment.
You know how much I read to find this gem?
It was a dismaying comment.
The man is in charge of the most prestigious opera company in the Western Hemisphere, the Metropolitan Opera in New York City.
He didn't put on a new opera every year like the New York Times prods him to.
Music critics are another, they're like the sports writers.
One is more woke than the other.
I think if you're not a fool, I don't think you can advance in either profession.
So the music critics push people.
Oh, we need more women composers.
Oh, we need more black composers.
Oh, we need more black oboe players.
Which is fine.
But you can't drop the standards in order to achieve your end.
So that's what he said.
Look, I wish there was a great new opera every year.
But there isn't.
And that, he said, was a dismaying comment.
Do you like this term?
They're great on terminology.
Foster the future.
Do you know how you foster the future, Mr. Tomasini of the New York Times?
by giving young people the greatest works of the past.

He decided he needed a cigarette, went outside, didn't have a cigarette.
And just randomly, because you know how this is, two South African guys offered him a cigarette laced with cocaine.

Yeah, they handed it out for free.

I just got an email about someone who says they have to take mandated racial diversity seminar training or whatever it is.
And all I have to say is that there is a piece of art, and I don't use that word lightly, that is so perfect, so funny, so politically incorrect, that hits this perfectly.
It's from the legendary show The Office.
Now The Office started as an unbelievably politically incorrect show, and then it got into this kind of like quasi-woke thing later on.
But the episode Diversity Day, with Steve Corral, It's so politically incorrect, especially in today's time.
I'm just gonna tell you something right now.

Just call them to let you know I'm getting my first dose today, but I will definitely be wearing a mask once I'm fully vaccinated.
And the reason?
To stay safe, because I don't know who else has or hasn't been vaccinated.
If I'm with people that I know have been vaccinated, yes, then I'll take the mask off.
You know I'm not going to argue, so don't feel defensive.
I thought vaccine prevents you from getting the virus.
But we don't know exactly how effective it is.
And just to be safe, I'm just going to be...
I've made the decision, I'll wear the mask for the rest of my life.
Really?
Yes.
Are you married?
I am not.
Because the only reason I asked was if your wife agreed with you.
You're going to wear a mask for the rest of your life.
Well, you know what?
Let me say this.
I think Dr. Fauci would be proud of you.
I want you to know that thank you for calling.
I can't tell you how important it is to me that people who differ with me feel safe.
That they know that this is a safe space.

I can't overstate how injurious I believe widespread masking is.
I have the exact same antipathy toward these masks as I do toward Muslim veils.
It is dehumanizing.

I just get tired of people blaming racism for any time there's statistical differences along race and ethnicity.
And you brought up the case in point about the NBA and NFL. We as black people, we're overly represented in these areas, and yet we never hear boo that that's racist.
But everywhere else, we scream racism.
And I just wish that we would just go a little bit deeper in the analysis whenever we see these things.
What is it in the culture?
What is it in the way that we're bringing up our children in society that's promoting people to...
To go into certain areas and occupations, that I feel would be much more useful and helpful rather than just saying, oh, racial inequity or racism.
I'm saying this as a black woman.
I attended Ivy League schools and I always felt in the back of my mind, are you judging me because you think I'm here and I didn't deserve it?
Whenever we do that and we eliminate merit-based systems, it always makes...
Those of us who are trying to work hard feel like people are judging us as if we didn't work hard to get here.
Thank you, Larry.
Bonnie, thank you very much.

I went to an Ivy League school, too.
My girlfriend was a dancer.
She tried out to be a cheerleader, and she didn't make it.
And I went to a game, I think one game, and all the cheerleaders were black, even though virtually all the players were white.
Merit-based, these white girls, she told me, just couldn't do the steps they were doing.
But nobody complained.
Nobody said we ought to have a race-based determination for cheerleaders.

The Congressional Budget Office just released its new debt figures.
The national debt this year will top 102% of GDP. This has only happened twice before, both during World War II. This number does not count the proposed $1.9 trillion stimulus bill, nor does it count the money which was borrowed from Social Security, since that's considered intergovernmental debt.
Debt levels this high break the intergenerational covenant that we have with our children and grandchildren.
FDR borrowed to defeat the Nazis and Imperial Japan.
Money well spent.
Reagan borrowed to defeat the Soviet Union.
That was also money well spent.
These great projects made the world better for future generations.
But our political class is not buying victories against international threats.
They are...
Thank you.
You're listening to The Dennis Prager Show.
And this is the Male-Female Hour.
Every Wednesday, second hour of the show, the most honest talk I know of about men and women in the American media.
And if there's...
Oh, boy.
Wow, that was a loud microphone noise.
Whoa!
All right, everybody.
That's what this is about.
So here's today's topic.
It's from Time Magazine.
No less.
And no more.
More people think it's fine for unwed couples to live together.
Here's why many still think marriage is better.
So, this is an interesting thing.
When Time Magazine, which is in the progressive world, writes that makes a case for why marriage is better than living together, hmm, worth paying attention.
Belinda Luscomb, L-U-S-C-O-M-B-E, is an editor at Larger Time, author of Marriageology, The Art and Science of Staying Together.
You ever meet a marriageologist?
Eh?
I'm thinking about that.
I can't say I have.
I like it, though.
I like the title.
Okay.
So here we go.
More Americans have lived with a romantic partner than have married one, a new study from Pew Research shows.
And only a small minority of people now see unwed couples living together as anything to get upset about.
Despite this, okay, here it goes, married people still report more satisfaction with their relationship, more closeness to their partner, And a lot more trust in them than people living together.
My friends, this should be as obvious as the sun in the daytime and the moon in the nighttime, providing there is a moon out and no clouds.
Again, more satisfaction.
With their relationship, more closeness to their partner, and a lot more trust in them than people living together.
A marriage certificate ranks low on the things people think are necessary for a fulfilling life.
Isn't that sad?
This is why...
It's really funny.
Every young woman I meet, because guys have...
It's unfair, but guys have a longer...
Choosing period than women do.
And I say, well, you know, my question, if you can be guaranteed a great career or guaranteed a great marriage, which guarantee would you take?
And some have to think about it, some are not sure, and some say great marriage, some say great career.
But most young women today have this cavalier marriage, have a cavalier attitude toward marriage.
That's why she writes, a marriage certificate ranks low on the things people think are necessary for a fulfilling life.
Same with men.
Career, career, career, career, career is important.
I don't deny it.
But you've got to be kidding.
To opt to do it alone?
Look, I know some people are meant to be alone.
I understand that.
This is what is...
Why we don't have a wise society?
Because we focus on exceptions rather than rules.
You learn nothing when you focus on exceptions.
You learn nothing about life.
Yes, I believe sex is binary.
There's only male and only female.
So I get a question, well, what about hermaphrodites?
Oh, that really...
How does that undo the statement, there is male and female?
The fact that there are people with genitalia of both sexes.
How does that possibly undo it?
There are people with genitalia of both sexes.
So what?
It doesn't undo the point.
For most people, it is a better idea to bond with somebody than to never bond with somebody, even if you end up with divorce.
Yes.
Better to have been married and divorced.
I did this for an hour.
Oh, it was a lively hour.
I should do it again.
A lot of people don't marry because, well, you know, if I marry, it's got to be the only marriage.
Yes, that is the attitude you should have.
That's correct.
It should be, when you go into a marriage, that is exactly the attitude you should have.
This will be my only marriage.
But if it doesn't work, it's like every time you enter a car, you should believe, I'm not going to crash today.
But what if you do have a crash?
Therefore what?
We shouldn't enter a car to begin with?
Divorce is a crash.
A marriage certificate ranks low on the things people think are necessary for a fulfilling life.
How sad.
And yet the number of Americans who are currently married, 53%, completely dwarves the number of unmarried people who currently live together, 7%.
That is interesting.
Although I wonder how true it is in their 20s.
This is an overall total.
I'd like to know in their 20s and what the trend is.
Anyway, isn't that sad?
53% of Americans are married.
47% of Americans are not married.
That strike you as incredible?
Half the country's not married.
That's got to be, I presume, the lowest number in the history of the United States.
Maybe the lowest number in the history of Western civilization.
Or perhaps any civilization.
As recently as 2002, those who had lived with a romantic partner, that's 54%, were outnumbered by those who had married one, 60%.
Now those proportions, The survey's respondents, 57% of whom were married and 9% of whom were cohabiting, had notably different levels of trust in their partners.
You hear that?
Of course you would.
Of course you would.
And don't tell me I know.
There are people who've lived together for 30 years.
I know that.
I'm well aware that the exceptions don't mean anything in making a generalization.
Of course you're going to trust your spouse more than your friend, boyfriend, girlfriend, as in, I mean, I don't mean same-sex friends that you've had for a whole life.
Of course, it's a statement of commitment.
For years, I've told women, oh, you know, I'd love to get married.
I really want to get married, but my boyfriend of seven years says, oh, it's only a piece of paper.
I've always had a great response to that.
So to him, since it's only a piece of paper, why are you objecting?
Piece of paper, it's obviously not just a piece of paper, or you'd have done what I wanted to do, and that is get married.
So she writes, the different levels of trust between marriage and living together.
Two-thirds of the married individuals trusted their partners to tell them the truth.
Only half of the unmarried did.
About three-quarters of married people trusted their partner to act in their best interest.
Fewer than 60% of the unmarried felt the same way.
And while 56% of married partners believed their partners could be trusted to handle money responsibly, only 40% of cohabitors felt the same way.
I have more to read to you from this Time article.
The subject on the male-female hour today is marriage versus cohabiting.
Do you agree with these findings?
1-8 Prager 776. I do.
And I have many more arguments for marriage over cohabiting.
Saying my wife is very different from saying my girlfriend.

Be that as it may, thank God we got it today.
And...
I'm reading to you from Time Magazine how a marriage beats living together in all the polls that they have taken.
They trust each other more.
They feel closer to the person in marriage than in living together.
My argument against living together is not a religious argument.
It's not a this-is-living-in-sin argument.
It is purely...
Practical.
Marriage is deeper, better, better for you and better for society.
Nobody thinks about better for society.
That's quaint now, but I think about it all the time.
It's better if people commit publicly and legally to each other than just say, we'll live together because we love each other.
And the author in Time Magazine continues, married people are advertising their commitment.
That's the point.
That's why it's better for society.
I want people to advertise their commitment.
Quote, when somebody tells you, that's my spouse, you know a ton of information about the relationship and the level of commitment.
This is from Scott, that's a quote from Scott Stanley, a research professor.
And co-director of the Center for Marital and Family Studies at the University of Denver.
That's right.
When somebody tells you that's my spouse, that's what I said before the break.
Give me a break, folks.
Well, I've got to break a few times an hour, but give me a break.
What tells the world more information?
This is my wife or this is my girlfriend?
This is my husband or this is my boyfriend or partner.
It's a big deal.
Amen.
And she continues quoting this research professor.
But you could have ten different couples tell you they're cohabiting, and for some of them it's like dating with a lot of sleepovers.
For others, it's a lot like marriage in terms of their intention.
And for another few, which is the worst deal, yes, this is a key one, it's one person thinking it's one thing, and the other person thinking it's not.
Cohabitation doesn't force clarity.
Like marriage does.
Is this article up my alley or what?
I like clarity.
Me, big fan of clarity.
As they used to have in the old cowboy movies.
The Pew study suggests that if it's commitment you're looking for, being married is a pair of hiking boots and living together is a pair of stilettos.
Both can get you where you want to be, but only one is designed with that in mind.
Good line?
I was rewarded for reading the entire piece just to get to that line.
It's a terrific piece, a terrific line.
It's what people should ask people who are together.
Hey, you guys, are you wearing hiking boots or stilettos?
1-8 Prager 776. Is line 7 working or just open?
What is the story Morning Glory?

It's open.
We actually have one open line.

Okay, let me take your calls.
That's it.
William in Crofton, Maryland.
Wasn't it the other day I said to you, we're not getting enough calls from Crofton?
And look at this.
This is like a divine hand on the Dennis Prager Show.
Imagine that.
Thanks for taking my call, Dennis.
Yes, sir.
I just wanted to say, I was born in the early 90s, and one common thing I see, especially amongst my friends, and even in a lot of religious Christian kind of communities, is that a lot of my friends are living together already before they're married, is that a lot of my friends are living together already before they're married, and a lot of the reasons why they're not getting married, you know, as soon as they normally would be, in my mind, is that for them, nothing's really going to change
besides maybe having kids.
Yeah, they're wrong.
That's the point of this piece.
They're just wrong.
And there's no way they could know that because they're not married.
But ask people who lived together and then got married.
Right?
I mean, ask people, anybody listening, who lived together and then got married, say, oh, yeah, there's no difference.
Oh, yeah, good.
Why don't you talk?
Hold on, we're putting on the living martyr.
You've achieved something rare.
Well, you've got the living martyr to speak.
This is a very great moment in the show's history.
And now, it's on.
Take it away.
All right, so, when Susie and I lived together, For a number of years, I was sort of caught in that whole way of thinking.
And we finally decided, well, we should get married.
I was shocked at day one, the difference between living together and being married.
It was truly, it sounds cliched, it is a little bit cliched, but it was transformative.
And I have to admit, Susie makes a big joke out of this, that from that time, I would go around talking to people as an evangelist for marriage.
I would say, you have no idea.
You should get married.
It's much different.
And it almost became funny, because I would stop somebody in the street and say, are you living with somebody?
You should get married.
It's much better.
Wow.
Much closer.
The bond was much tighter.
How could it not be?
I mean, it's...
How about this?
You know what?
It's not a perfect analogy, but I think an analogy.
It's a difference between renting a house and owning a house.
Well, you've used it, which is excellent.
But you also used another analogy, which is the difference between visiting a country or living in a country as, let's say, you're living there, but you're not a citizen.
And being a citizen.
Yeah.
That's a good analogy, too.
You don't remember making that one?
No, I don't.
But I like it.
Okay.
Sounds like one I would have made up.
You did.
Yeah.

We were just dating, and we were once getting on an airplane, and Anna's ticket didn't say anything, and my ticket said priority access.
It doesn't matter.

She's not my girlfriend anymore, although I hope we keep dating until the day we die.
And it's just a whole different ball of wax, and it's beautiful.
Mulvaney's right, man.
You do feel like an adult.
That's right.
You are truly a living advertisement, because obviously, in the world you live, you could date forever.
No, it's so easy.
It's so easy.
It's too easy.
Well, I salute you for making the commitment.
Thank you.
I do, I really do.
Did she give you an ultimatum?
No, not at all.
Not at all.
I met her...
And, you know, within the first—well, here's the interesting thing.
She wouldn't let me kiss her the first three dates.
And that was a headspace shift for me.
I was like, okay, all right, well, let's dig into her mentally.
Let's dig into her emotionally.
Well, I salute her, too.
Oh, yeah.
She digged that hook, and she reeled me in.
She what, and reeled you in?
She baited that hook.
That's right.
She baited the hook, yes.
We should do an hour on that.
Are you more likely to get a guy to commit to you, you a female, if you delay physical contact?
Let's put it as general as that.
Let me tell you, as a man, that's very enticing.
It means that not having some high-paying job is a statement.
This is a woman who is strong.

The Congressional Budget Office just released its new debt figures.
The national debt this year will top 102% of GDP. This has only happened twice before, both during World War II. This number does not count the proposed $1.9 trillion stimulus bill, nor does it count the money which was borrowed from Social Security, since that's considered intergovernmental debt.
Debt levels this high break the intergenerational covenant that we have with our children and grandchildren.
FDR borrowed to defeat the Nazis and Imperial Japan.
Money well spent.
Reagan borrowed to defeat the Soviet Union.
That was also money well spent.
These great projects made the world better for future generations.
But our political class is not buying victories against international threats.
They are buying political victories for incumbents.
This is nothing more than fiscal abuse, and our kids will pay the price.

Marriage versus living together.
Some pretty powerful points that I've made and that you heard from this comedian and that you people made and that Alan Nestrin, my producer, made.
The difference between living together and marriage is awesome.
All right, I got a challenge here, and I'm going to take it.
Nora in Redondo Beach, California.
Hi.
Hi, Dennis.
Let me say that my husband and I both love your show and listen to it all the time, but while I was listening to you talk about marriage versus living together and all the advantages, how do you reconcile that with your feeling of denying marriage to same-sex couples?
It just doesn't seem right now.
Right.
I totally get it.
I take positions knowing the downside of my position.
I don't deny the legitimate arguments of those who differ from me are legitimate.
It is a legitimate argument that it is better for gay people to marry than to live together.
That is a legitimate argument for them.
But I have other questions in life.
What is good for society?
And while even that can be argued, that's good for society because it's more stability.
I acknowledge all of that.
Nevertheless, I'm still not prepared to redefine marriage to include members of the same sex.
Marriage is a special word.
I would have given all sorts of rights, of commitment, and the like.
Indeed, most marital or even all marital rights, but I would not change the definition because it helps about 2% of the population.
There may be 3% who are gay, but the great majority of gays don't marry.
So it's a very small number of people, and everything I predicted came true.
And I'll give you one example.
The argument for same-sex marriage was...
Gender doesn't matter.
And now, what are we living through?
The day after same-sex marriage was voted in by one vote of the Supreme Court, the LGBTQ community announced that there is no such thing as gender.
One followed the other like night follows day.
So that is my argument.
And I get my values.
In my case, I do.
I'm a religious Jew.
I get my values from my Bible.
And it recognizes marriage is between a man and a woman.
I don't get my values from my heart.
I admit it.
So does that answer you?
Alan answers me, but I guess I just wanted you to kind of think about that while you were talking about this.
Oh, I've been thinking about it all the time.
Some of my best friends are married gays.
I totally think about it.
And I have a wonderful relationship with them.
I mean, a heartfelt, loving relationship.
And they respect.
I respect their decision.
To marry, and they respect my opposition based on the religious values that I hold.
And I live with the knowledge that there is a downside.
There is a downside to almost every position a human takes.
Nothing is free.
Everything comes at a cost.
All right, I really appreciate that call.
Johnny in Pacoima, California.
Hi.
Hello?
Hello?
Thank you.
I think thank you.
Did he say he likes my show?
Good.
Yeah.
Thank you, sir.
Hey, you're a big inspiration.
I listen to you every single day, all three hours, every day.
Thank you, sir.
Appreciate it.
Glad you do.
Yeah, well, you were talking about the marriage and stuff.
I'm a biker, man.
My lady, we've been together for like 10 years.
We're not married, but, you know, I got no problem, you know, being the way we are, you know?
Like, professionally, if we go somewhere, we do paperwork or whatever, yeah, I say, yeah, she's my wife.
Well, I don't understand.
Wait, wait.
Why would you say she's your wife?
And not marry her?
Well, she's been divorced.
I've been divorced.
And I don't know.
We just never really came across through it.
She's like my best friend, though.
You know, she's my best friend, you know?
Does she want to marry you?
You know, I don't know if she does.
Maybe.
I mean...
Hey Johnny, one second.
You know us guys, man.
He's making my argument.
Hey, we're best friends.
Does she want to marry you?
I don't know.
I would think that if you're best friends, you might discuss it.
That's what best friends do.
Johnny, I love you, and you're fooling yourself.
I call her my wife, but she's not.
Does she want to marry you?
I don't know.
I'm a guy.
I suspect she wants to marry you.
I suspect you should.
And you know the difference, because that's why you call her your wife.
And when you do get married, because I think this conversation will have affected Johnny, I want to know that you are, and I'll announce it on the radio.
That's special.
Rick, Crown Point, Indiana.
Hi, Dennis.
Thanks for taking my call, big fan.
Thank you.
I just wanted to start by saying I do agree with you, especially now that I have two daughters, age 21 and 22. But if I could make a case for the other side, before I met my wife, I was dating somebody else, and we did live together.
And thank God we did, because I learned real quick that it wasn't a good match.
Yes, let me respond to that.
I'm glad you learned it, obviously.
Better to break up before marriage than after a marriage.
But one of the reasons people living together divorce more than people who don't live together is that they don't break up because it's so hard to do.
Trending now on America First with Sebastian Brucker.
This isn't as some have portrayed it as some kind of spontaneous, random, organic response to Joe Biden being president.
This is being institutionally organized for the profit of the cartels, correct?
Absolutely.
And the cartels understand...
What our politics and our policies are better than we do as Americans.
And they knew where Joe Biden was leaning and his administration.
And they were more than willing and more than ready to help accommodate those people to come across this country.
Look, they don't just let people come across.
On the other side, the cartel is regulated.
They make these people pay.
They give them children to, hey, here, take this kid across with you.
They're less likely to stop you.
So this is something that I want everybody to understand.
I heard this from my friend, former commissioner for Customs and Border Protection, Mark Morgan.
They are using children from the northern counties in Mexico as props so that groups of adults coming across can say, we are a family unit, so the feds have to treat them differently.
Are you confirming that, Sheriff Lamb?
Yes, 100%.
And out in Collin County, Texas, one of my other fellow sheriffs out there, they do interdiction on the highways out there.
He says no less than...
Three to five times, they have actually pulled cars over where the people in the front had no idea who the children in the back were, and the children in the back had no idea who the people in the front were.
They know what our policies are.
They're using that against us.
They're using children, which is despicable.
And honestly, where are these parents of these people?

I just get tired of people blaming racism for any time there's statistical differences along race and ethnicity.
And you brought up the case in point about the NBA and NFL. We as black people, we're overly represented in these areas, and yet we'd never hear boo that that's racist.
But everywhere else, we scream racism.
And I just wish that we would just go a little bit deeper in the analysis whenever we see these things.
What is it in the culture?
What is it in the way that we're bringing up our children in society that's promoting people to...
To go into certain areas and occupations, that I feel would be much more useful and helpful rather than just saying, oh, racial inequity or racism.
I'm saying this as a black woman.
I attended Ivy League schools and I always felt in the back of my mind, are you judging me because you think I'm here and I didn't deserve it?

We certainly do. - Maybe I should do a video on living together versus marriage.
Put it down as a thought.
That's the subject of today's male-female hour.
Stanislaus in Davis, California.
Don't hang up, folks, or I won't know what you want to say.
Living together is demeaning experience for the woman.
I believe that that's true in most cases.
I do.
Because, you know, the left, which...
Truly is a denial of reality, because reality is painful, and they don't want to experience pain.
That's why they have safe spaces.
A big part of the left is, I can't handle life's pains, so I will deny them.
But most people see a couple that's living together, and, I mean, I've just got to tell you folks, and I know such couples, some of them are terrific people.
Just like gays who are married are terrific people, the ones that I know.
But I'm still for marriage being defined as male-female.
I can live with facts that seem to refute my position.
But you know what people are thinking?
In the vast majority of cases, when there's a couple living together, an adult couple, how come he doesn't marry her?
That's what they're thinking.
Everybody is thinking that.
Nobody is saying it.
Nobody is allowed to say it.
People deny it if you ask them.
But that's the question.
So Stanislaus is right.
Dennis in Mooney, Illinois, living together, implies you're still holding back.
Of course it does.
Because you are.
That's exactly right.
Let's see here.
That's a good one.
Hector in Long Beach, California.
When you live together, you don't announce it.
When you marry, it's a celebration.
Good one.
That's exactly right.
Marriage is a societal commitment, not just a personal one.
That is correct.
All right, and thank you to Sean and Ron and Anonymous and...
Kendrick, this is an important subject.
It's not just a piece of paper, marriage.
It is the most public statement you could say.
I am committed to this person.
We continue.
I love saying my wife.

Have things changed for you when it comes to illegal migration in your county, Sheriff?
Oh, absolutely.
And it's been a disastrous change.
It is not a change that we welcomed or are enjoying, that's for sure.
You know, immediately overnight, we started having I mean, the last two months, we've had 40-plus pursuits where they end in a bailout, which means that they run from us, they stop, everybody bails out of the vehicle into the desert.
Typically, they'll leave somebody behind.
Like, we had one where 12 people bailed out of the car, and they left a 16-year-old Guatemalan girl behind because they know that we're going to have to deal with this unaccompanied minor.
Well, all of them go free into this country.
Last week alone, last Wednesday alone, we had 49 apprehensions in one day.
It's not uncommon for us to go out and have 20 apprehensions.
And mind you, I'm 60 miles off the border.
That's how far they're infiltrating into our country.
Camouflage closed.
They don't want to be caught.
And I know I'm kind of running on, and I'll give you a second.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Our listeners, our viewers need to know.
So you tell us what's changed.
You know, and what I keep telling people, this isn't about immigration anymore.
This is about human trafficking and drug trafficking into this country.
And if you care about human beings, it shouldn't matter what party you are.
If you care about protecting those people, then you should absolutely care about border security because...

And those that heard about the Hunter Biden story said up to 17% of them would not have voted for Joe Biden if they had known.
This we know for sure.
This doesn't even, this isn't any kind of conspiracy theory.
We know...
That journalists interfered with this election in a way that journalists have never interfered with an election in the United States before by suppressing very pertinent information.
And for your listeners and your viewers, you know, what is that pertinent information?
And, you know, it's almost like a joke, actually, Eric.
And I think this film actually, funny enough, will be funny and awfully sad and tragic and has a terrible punch in it.
But here's some of the details.
Here's a guy with a drug problem.
And, you know, we're Irish.
We exported alcoholism around the world.
We're quite sympathetic to people with addiction issues.
But here is a guy with a very serious addiction issue.
He goes to the Navy.
He gets a special dispensation to go to the Navy as an older guy.
First day he's there.
He's thrown out because he got cocaine in his system.
And his story, his excuse for that, is so ludicrous.
It's worth telling.
He says that he stopped off at a bar because he wanted a glass of water.
He decided he needed a cigarette, went outside, didn't have a cigarette, and just randomly, because you know how this is, two South African guys offered him a cigarette laced with cocaine, because you probably know, you live in New York, you see, Eric, you know how much these cocaine dealers are just handing out that cocaine for free to everyone.
Yeah, they handed it out for free.
That's how I got addicted.
I just got an email about someone who says they have to take mandated racial diversity seminar training or whatever it is.
And all I have to say is that there is a piece of art, and I don't use that word lightly, that is so perfect, so funny, so politically incorrect, that hits this perfectly.
It's from the legendary show The Office.
Now, The Office started as an unbelievably politically incorrect show, and then it got into this kind of like quasi-woke thing later on.
But the episode Diversity Day with Steve Corral, it's so politically incorrect, especially in today's time.
I'm just going to tell you something right now.
If I dared repeat some of the lines here...
It wouldn't even be an advertiser boycott.
It would be an advertiser invasion.
One of my favorite lines is Steve Corral looks into the...
Actually, this might be the pilot episode.
You see, I am...
I'm not an expert in a lot of things, but I am an expert in the central canon of the first season of The Office because it all went downhill from there.

The first season of The Office is so well-written as if they don't care.
They just said, we are going to swing for the fences.
Bottom of the ninth, we want this show to catch on.

Yeah, I don't want any vitriol in my life.
I work very hard to avoid it.
One of the things I, of course, I talk about my dog a lot, Jasper.
I have actually utilized my love for dogs to form relationships with people that I might disagree with politically.
And that's been very gratifying, actually.
I have a rule, no politics at the dog park.
And also, I...
Okay.
Hey y'all, I'm Dennis Pranger.
I have not talked much about the border crisis.
And...
I'll tell you why.
It's not anything but an explanation.
Because I analyze my own show.
Why do I talk about X and not Y and so on.
And...
This is not actually, when I think about it, a completely valid reason.
But I'm just leveling with you, and I really do aim for transparency.
And it is because I have nothing to add to the universal non-left perception.
I try to bring to you either items or explanations that you may not have encountered.
So I assume that the vast majority of you understand the left has no interest in protecting the borders of the United States.
They don't really believe in them.
I said for years they believe in open borders.
And then leftists write to me, and I appreciate every leftist who writes to me, Because it gives me insight, obviously, into the left-wing mind.
And they never said they're for open borders.
You're not telling the truth.
That's like...
It's hard to give a perfect analogy to this, but I want to give you an analogy.
That's like saying John Wilkes Booth didn't announce why he killed Abraham, assassinated Abraham Lincoln.
So how do you know that he was pro-slavery?
I mean, what did he do when John Wilkes Booth jumped on the stage?
He was an actor.
Didn't he say in Latin, thus to all tyrants?
But, hey, why would we assume that he was pro-slavery, John Wilkes Booth?
Why would we assume the Democrats are pro-open borders?
So, anyway, now I've told you what's going on in the larger sense.
The macro picture.
They are far more interested in power than in America's survival on the left.
That's been always true.
That is the way.
The left seeks power.
The right seeks less power.
And those who seek power usually win.
Because they...
They promise you in a Mephistopheles-like deal.
You vote for us, you get things.
By the way, you get things when you vote for Republicans too, but you get less.
Let's put it that way.
You can't win in a democracy.
It's the built-in flaw of democracy that you have to promise people goodies.
To get their votes.
It was not always this way.
Government was not seen as the source of my replenishment.
Who initiated that?
Was it Franklin Roosevelt?
The idea that the government will take care of you.
I guess it came in with FDR. It certainly wasn't with Calvin Coolidge.
I don't think Hoover was one of those either.
He had a lot of issues.
It was more, of course.
Well, everybody was more than Coolidge.
The left hates Coolidge.
They have contempt for him.
They say he did nothing, which I consider one of the great achievements of a president is to do as little as possible.
I want government to do as little as possible, but not nothing.
Okay?
That's my dream.
That was the founders of this experiment's dream.
The experiment is now failing.
Trillions and trillions of dollars.
It doesn't mean anything to people.
You know why?
It has a very small digit in front of it.
One trillion, two trillion.
It's too bad it's not called a thousand billion.
Right?
I think it would make a bigger impact on people.
Trillion.
Eh, trillion.
Now they want a nearly $4 trillion infrastructure thing?
$3 trillion?
Let me ask you a question.
I'm asking this to my comrade here.
Yes, I've imbibed the left-wing ideology, and I call him comrade.
So, comrade living.
I have a question.
I prefer Comrade Martyr.
No, it doesn't.
Comrade is first name.
Yes, yes.
Well, let me think.
You might be right.
Was it Comrade Stalin or was it Comrade Joseph?
It was Comrade Stalin.
So Comrade Martyr.
Yes, you're right.
Comrade Martyr.
It's got a ring to it.
Yeah, kind of does.
So, I'm joking, literally.
How do they expect to pay these expenses back, this debt?
Oh, wait, I'm answering my own question, comrade.
They will tax the rich.
If you were to ask Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer, how are you going to pay these trillions of dollars of debt?
They would say, we'll tax the rich, correct?
Corporations.
Of course, you realize that the corporate tax rate was high, and Donald Trump lowered it, and that was a major reason for...
The spectacular boom in the American economy because companies were not doing business in the U.S. They went offshore.
Because every country in the world, except, I think, Japan, every industrialized country had lower tax rates.
Sweden, Denmark, all your wonderful socialist paradises.
They all had much lower tax rates on corporations than the United States did.
So, listen, I can't stand big business.
I would call the heads of most big businesses prostitutes, and I'm not being cute.
I think more highly of prostitutes.
I swear to God, I am telling you the truth.
I am not kidding.
It is not a cute point.
I think more highly of prostitutes than most CEOs and presidents of big companies.
Certainly more than the folks at the tech companies, more than at Coca-Cola, more than at Nike.
Who does more damage, prostitutes or Nike?
I mean, there's no comparison.
So my desire to have low corporate rate is not because I have any regard for corporations.
I have regard for America.
I want their money in the United States.
The trick is to think morally, not emotionally.
How is this going to be paid back?
God, when young people vote Democrat, I think...
Do you understand?
Have you ever read about kamikaze pilots?
You know what?
I really do believe young Democratic voters should be called kamikaze pilots.
That should be the name.
Because they are...
They're not destroyed.
The only difference is some kamikaze pilots actually, tragically, destroyed the enemy.
Some American boats, ships, transports, the like, were destroyed.
The vast majority, they just fell into the ocean.
So that's my new name for young Democrats, kamikaze pilots.
Yes.
What do they think the money will come from?
Where do they think it will come from?
There's not thought through.
Like the border.
Let them in.
Open borders.
In modern history, there has never been such an experiment.
Never.

Yeah, I don't want any vitriol in my life.
I work very hard to avoid it.
One of the things, of course, I talk about my dog a lot, Jasper.
I've actually utilized my love for dogs to form relationships with people that I might disagree with politically.
That's been very gratifying, actually.
I have a rule, no politics at the dog park.
And also, I've found the other thing is that if you ask questions, right, I ask a lot of questions.
I'm curious.
I love learning.
I know you do, too.
This is why you do this job.
You love meeting people and learning the issues.
And I've also started listening to more podcasts.
I'm thrilled that you're going to be doing a podcast.
I will subscribe.
I will give you five stars.
Thank you.

There's a lot of ambition and talent and educated people in America.
They want to succeed, but they've got to work a little harder to get it.

It's got Thor Ramsey, Stephen Baldwin, Donald Faison, Joey Fatone.
Special guest appearance for Mike Lindell.
It's a hilarious, heartwarming reminder about the importance of the gospel.
So, I think you should treat yourself to it.
Leave you laughing out loud.

Dennis Prager here.
I was talking to you about the border.
The sense of open borders.
Flooding America with more people is good for the Democrats.
It's not good for America, but it's irrelevant.
I don't think we've ever had a party that loathes the country.
It's never happened, I don't think.
Well, I guess you could say the Democrats of the South in Civil War era, they loathed the country because the country was...
Not allowing slavery to expand.
By the way, we have a magnificent video from years ago up at PragerU about slavery being the reason for the Civil War.
It's the only video I think we ever put up that the left praised.
But we're actually committed to truth above all at PragerU.
Which is a pretty good record of adhering to that.
Anyway, since the Civil War South, there has never been a loathing of the country like you have with the Democrats.
Again, how ironic, isn't it?
The Democrats in the 19th century, the Democrats in the 21st century, want to rip the country apart.
I'll give you an example.

Racist incidents uniting black and Asian Americans.
The two groups find solidarity with white supremacy viewed as a common enemy by Erica Smith.
The whole thing is a fake.
The whole article, the whole headline, it's all a fake.
White supremacy is a made-up thing.
It's made up by the left.
They fight things they make up because they never fight real evils.
I've said this my whole life.
I think from a few years ago, I think the title of my column was The Left Fights Statues, The Right Fights Evil.
That's what I titled the piece.
That's what it was about.
Whoa, blacks and...
And Asian Americans are uniting to fight white supremacy.
There's an interesting question.
I think Beethoven and Mozart and Brahms and Haydn and Bach and Schubert wrote the greatest music ever written.
Does that constitute a white supremacist?
So let me analyze that for a moment.
Because they say it does.
They say it does.
Right?
If you say Shakespeare wrote the greatest plays, you're a white supremacist.
So here's the question.
Do I believe that Brahms, Schubert, Beethoven, Bach, Haydn, etc., do I believe that they wrote the greatest music, here goes the phrase that matters, because they were white?
Does anybody?
Do I think that Hitler and Stalin, after Mao killed the most people in human history, the embodiment of pure evil, they were white?
Were they evil because they were white?
Well, if Stalin was evil because he was white, And Beethoven wrote the greatest music because he was white.
Got a big problem, don't you?
What does white mean?
The answer is nothing.
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
The guy who murdered people in Boulder this week has really confused the left because they identified him as a white because he is in fact white.
But he's Syrian.
Uh-oh.
Problem, because Muslims are supposed to be victims, they can't be white.
Well, look at that.
A white Muslim.
CNN called them a white as soon as they saw a picture.
There you go.
So white, does it even mean a color?
or does it just mean people who look white with whom we differ?
It's an interesting question I've been called everything.
You know, fascist, anti-Semite.
So what if I'm one of the most active Jews in America?
But I've been called everything.
Have I been called a white supremacist?
Racist, of course, because that comes with it.
But white supremacist, I don't think that that has...
I don't think I've...
I mean, this is an invitation, obviously.
To the left, to finally fill in that one lacuna with regard to me.
So this is what they're trying to do.
Again, the loathing of the country, as exemplified by this Erica D. Smith in L.A. Times.
Racist incidents uniting black and Asian Americans.
The two groups find solidarity with white supremacy viewed as a common enemy.
You know, by the way, the irony of all this is blacks have attacked, physically attacked, Asian Americans more than any other group, including, and this is government statistics.
It's in my column that came out yesterday.
These are government data.
But none of this is based on truth.
We swim in a world of lies because the left dominates media.
What a stupid lying headline.
Racist incidents uniting black and Asian Americans because they're both fighting white supremacy.
Comrade Martyr, I'm serious.
This is a serious question.
Have you ever met a white supremacist?
Wow, his answer was no.
What a cocoon he must live in.

I mean, we know that the Media Research Center did polling and found out among people who voted for Joe Biden, something like 30% didn't know the Hunter Biden story.
And those that heard about the Hunter Biden story said up to 17% of them would not have voted for Joe Biden if they had known.
This we know for sure.
This doesn't even, this isn't any kind of conspiracy theory.
We know that journalists interfered with this election in a way that journalists have never interfered with an election in the United States before.
By suppressing very pertinent information.
And for your listeners and your viewers, you know, what is that pertinent information?
And, you know, it's almost like a joke, actually, Eric.
And I think this film actually, funny enough, will be funny and awfully sad and tragic and has a terrible punch in it.
But here's some of the details.
Here's a guy with a drug problem.
And, you know, we're Irish.
We exported alcoholism around the world.
We're quite sympathetic to people with addiction issues.
But here is a guy with a very serious addiction issue.
He goes to the Navy.
He gets a special dispensation to go to the Navy as an older guy.
First day he's there.
He's thrown out because he got cocaine in his system.
And his story, his excuse for that, is so ludicrous.
It's worth telling.
He says that he stopped off at a bar because he wanted a glass of water.
He decided he needed a cigarette, went outside, didn't have a cigarette.
And just randomly, because you know how this is, two South African guys...
Offered him a cigarette laced with cocaine.
Because you probably know, you live in New York, you see, Eric.
You'd know how much these cocaine dealers are just handing out that cocaine for free to everyone.
Yeah, they handed it out for free.
That's how I got addicted.
I just got an email about someone who says they have to take mandated racial diversity seminar training or whatever it is.
And all I have to say is that there is a piece of art, and I don't use that word lightly, that is so perfect, so funny, so politically incorrect that hits this perfectly.
It's from the legendary show The Office.
Now, The Office started as an unbelievably politically incorrect...
And then it got into this kind of like quasi-woke thing later on.
But the episode Diversity Day with Steve Carell, it's so politically incorrect, especially in today's time.
I'm just going to tell you something right now.
If I dared repeat some of the lines here, it wouldn't even be an advertiser boycott.
It would be an advertiser invasion.
One of my favorite lines is Steve Corral looks into the...
Actually, this might be the pilot episode.
You see, I am...
I'm not an expert in a lot of things, but I am an expert in the central canon of the first season of The Office, because it all went downhill from there.
I watched it later.
The first season of The Office is so well-written, as if they don't care about...
They just said, we are going to swing for the fences, bottom of the ninth, we want this show to catch on.
That they just took huge risks.
Steve Corral famously said, as Abraham Lincoln said, if you are a racist, I will attack you from the north.
I highly encourage you to check it out because we need to laugh about this stuff a little bit.
Because people are emailing me, Charlie, what do I do about this diversity seminar?
If you think you have it bad, check out Michael Scott, who had to take the diversity class seminar.

His father was visiting him, and his new grandson sent me a photo.
Of the amount of cigars that his son has.
I mean, it looked like a store.
I thought it was a picture from a cigar store.
And then noted that he gives me credit for having him parked on cigars.
And I was very moved, believe it or not.
I know this is sick-sounding to those of you who believe the Mayo Clinic, but...
It's actually a good sign.
Now, March is fundraising month for PragerU, and you've got to admit, it's a highlight every day, not every hour, but every day, when I have a member of PragerForce.
It's now, I think, 15,000 worldwide college, high school-aged young men and women.
Almost any of them, but I want to meet them all after I talk to them.
Noelle Fitchett is a Prager Force member at Cal State Fullerton, California State University at Fullerton.
Now tell me if this is true, Noelle, that you have a growing social media following.
Is that correct?
I do, yes.
Well, first of all, welcome to my show.
It's a delight to meet you.
It's so nice to meet you as well.
Great.
Thank you.
And it says here in the bio that you have been attacked by the left.
Is that correct?
That's super true.
I was actually doxxed, and then that's how I came across Pragerforce, because I was looking for a conservative, free-thinking community.
And I found a family with Pragerforce.
What a great reason to find us.
Wow.
They doxed you?
What does that mean?
They put out where you live?
Yeah, my address, people came to my house, all that fun stuff, lots of threats.
But PragerForce really became a really healthy community for me and a great support system.
Well, that I can believe, because as I said to my audience...
The people I've met through this have been so impressive.
So is it true?
I hate to even ask this because I feel I've fallen into the trap that they have set of thinking of people this way.
But the reality is it plays a role.
Are you Hispanic?
I am.
And how does that work?
Both parents?
One parent?
I have both parents.
I'm really blessed.
Both of my parents didn't have two parents, so I'm super blessed that I have both parents, yes.
Right, but are both parents Hispanic?
Yeah, well, my mom's family immigrated here from Mexico, so my mom's first gen, but my dad's family is very mixed, and they've been here longer than the 1800s.
That's why I have the strange last name, Fitchett.
Yeah, I mentioned that to the living martyr here, my producer.
And the co-founder of PragerU, Alan Estrin, that your name, that was really old English name.
Yeah, yeah.
I always wondered what it was, and I didn't figure it out until maybe two years ago.
So do you, in your tweets, what do you use primarily to convey your ideas?
Instagram?
I started with TikTok, and now it's primarily Instagram.
So do you play up the fact, and I have no problem if you do, I'm just curious, that you're Hispanic?
Not, well, I mean, when people ask me, because often people ask me what I am, but then I have to go down a rabbit hole explaining my dad's ethnicity, which is just super long and complicated.
But I do, if, for example, I see someone lying, that all minorities think the same or all minorities think they're.
Oppressed, then I'll talk about my family history because my grandma was actually, she experienced like segregation in Texas growing up.
So I'll tell them about her story and it kind of opens people's eyes a bit.
What prompted you to differ from whether your peers are Anglo or Hispanic?
They're overwhelmingly likely to be on the left.
Yeah, most of my friends, Noel.
Forgive me, Noel.
I want you to answer that when we come back, because I've got to take a break.
Noel Fitchett is with PragerForce.
This is fundraising month for PragerU, and whatever you give until the end of this month will be tripled.

subscribe on YouTube today trending now on America first with Sebastian Verka This isn't as some have portrayed it as some kind of spontaneous, random, organic response to Joe Biden being president.
This is being institutionally organized for the profit of the cartels, correct?
Absolutely.
And the cartels understand what our politics and our policies are better than we do as Americans.
And they knew where Joe Biden was leaning and his administration.
And they were more than willing and more than ready to help accommodate those people to come across this country.
Look, they don't just let people come across.
On the other side, the cartel is regulated.
They make these people pay.
They give them children to, hey, hey, here, take this kid across with you.
They're less likely to stop you.
So this is something that I want everybody to understand.
I heard this from my friend, former commissioner for Customs and Border Protection, Mark Morgan.
They are using children from the northern county.
I am speaking with a student, a fighter, and that's not common at any age.
It's no more common at 60 than it is at the age of a college student.
That Noel Fitcher, Hispanic student at Fullerton, Cal State Fullerton.
So I asked you, when did you adopt these values?
Were you raised with them?
Well, I grew up in a Christian household, so my mom definitely is more conservative than my dad.
My dad's a little bit more libertarian.
But I think growing up, I always had these conservative values of personal responsibility, hard work, that I can achieve anything I set my mind to.
But in college, I started to believe in the myth of white privilege and a little bit of critical race theory.
And then I went down the rabbit hole last summer and I realized that it was just completely false after I learned facts and statistics.
And so I almost went like pulled left.
I was never a fan of socialism, but as far as social issues, I did lean left for a little bit.
Wow, fascinating.
So what happened?
Did you just do a lot of research?
What happened?
I came home and I told my parents that white privilege is real and they thought it was insane and so I got into a whole discussion with them and usually I'm pretty good at winning debates but that one I lost completely and I could not prove my point and so that sent me down the rabbit hole of discovering okay is this really real and then I learned so much information and watched Burger U videos and I realized that white privilege is just a myth.
Well, your parents did a good job then.
That's really...
And then PragerU reinforced your parents, right?
Yes.
That's how it happened.
So I'll ask you my favorite question.
Amazing, in years I've gotten a different answer every time.
Do you have, and if you do, what is your favorite PragerU video?
My favorite PragerU video actually inspired one of my TikToks.
It's The Unconvenient Truth About the Democratic Party.
I didn't know that the KKK was started by the Democrats, and so I ended up making a whole video with my grandma about it, but that's my favorite video.
Carol Swain.
I gotta tell Carol.
She'll be very touched.
She's a very special woman.
She's amazing.
She is.
I actually flew to Nashville last year, just two years ago, just to speak at a fundraiser for her.
She was running for mayor of the city.
That's so cool.
Yeah, it is cool.
I agree.
How many of the nearly 500 videos have you watched?
And I don't care what the answer is.
I'm just curious.
I've watched a lot of them.
I don't know the number, but I've definitely watched a lot of them, and now I send them to my little brothers as well, and that kind of helps them sort out a lot of myths, like the party switch and stuff.
But I've seen a lot of them.
Too many to count.
How do we follow you and see how much you're hated?
How do we follow you?
On all social media platforms.
My username is Noelle Fitch, F-I-T-C-H. And yeah, everything is just Noel Fitch.
Do you have friends?
Now, thanks to PragerForce, I've met so many people, and honestly, after being more outspoken about my beliefs, I've made so many more friends.
That's right.
True friends.
I want to comment on that.
I am going to thank you, and I can't wait to meet you in person, mask-free.
Likewise.
Thank you so much.
It was so nice talking to you.
If that doesn't do your heart good, folks, then nothing will.
But I want to comment on something that you may not have thought of.
Most conservatives are in the closet.
The only group in America that is in the closet is conservatives.
Your sexual preference, identity, anything.
There was a huge article in praise of polygamy.
Where did I just see that?
Was it the New York Times?
I forgot where I saw it.
And anything, everybody's out of the closet except conservatives.
But I want to give you a real good argument for coming out of the closet.
In the closet, you may not be attacked.
But here's the other side of that coin.
You may also not be befriended.
Coming out of the closet doesn't only mean you're exposed to enemies.
It means you're exposed to allies.
So how did you get friends, I asked Noelle Fitchett.
College student, conservative, Hispanic.
At Prager Forest was her first answer.
And the other one was the people I met because I came out publicly.
Everyone I know who has done that, well over the age of Prager Forest members, has found people that they could then befriend.
You know what gives you A real boost to fight?
Friends.
Kindred spirits.
Allies.
So, I have come to believe that almost whatever the price.
Almost.
I don't want you to go on welfare.
But almost whatever the price.
It is worth coming out.
There is nothing better, nothing better than meeting kindred spirits who actually love this country, who love liberty, and with whom you can share that love.
The reward of coming out of the closet?
Is at least as powerful as the pain of coming out of the closet.
So, give it some thought.
You will be shocked at how many people will respond to you.

Have things changed for you when it comes to illegal migration in your county, Sheriff?
Oh, absolutely.
And it's been a disastrous change.
It is not a change that we welcomed or are enjoying, that's for sure.
You know, immediately overnight, we started having, I mean, the last two months, we've had 40-plus pursuits where they end in a bailout, which means that they run from us, they stop, everybody bails out of the vehicle into the desert.
Typically, they'll leave somebody behind.
Like, we had one where 12 people bailed out of the car, and they left a 16-year-old Guatemalan girl behind because they know that we're going to have to deal with this unaccompanied minor while all of them go free into this country.
Last week alone, last Wednesday alone, we had 49 apprehensions in one day.
It's not uncommon for us to go out and have 20 apprehensions.
And mind you, I'm 60 miles off the border.
That's how far they're infiltrating into our country.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
Our listeners, our viewers need to know.
So you tell us what's changed.
You know, and what I keep telling people, this isn't about immigration anymore.
This is about human trafficking and drug trafficking into this country.
And if you care about human beings, it shouldn't matter what party you are.
If you care about protecting those people, then you should absolutely care about border security because the cartel is using these people.
To gain money.
They're raping the women, they're using the children as palms, which is clear as day right now, and they extort the men.
