If you guys don't know who we are, what PragerU is, PragerU is a digital media company where we put out short videos on basically every topic there is.
Topics on history, topics on politics, science, anything morality, anything that really Dennis Prager has ever talked about.
We're making videos about it and pushing out our videos to now billions of people.
That we are.
Educating the next generation.
So, Amal and I are very happy to be here.
Yes, we are.
And we're going to get into a little bit of our background, because you might not have heard our voices before.
You may have never met us.
Will, do you want to cue it up and let everybody know your backstory?
I'm pretty sure last time you started, so this time I'll start.
So, where I come from, I come from Colorado.
And my entire life, I was someone who was on the left.
I was an atheist.
I grew up without...
My dad really in the picture, and my mom and my brother and my grandpa were really the ones who raised me in most respects.
And so I turned to atheism.
I turned to leftism.
I basically thought...
A lot of the world was useless.
I was very nihilistic at that point in my life.
And eventually everything changed when I went to college because I went to the University of Colorado Boulder, which if any of you guys know about Boulder, you know it's the People's Republic of Boulder.
And everything changed when I was an English major there and I was in sociology classes and political science classes.
And one thing that I didn't talk about last time, but I want to talk about this time.
Is that when I became a conservative, eventually, after being in these classes and seeing through the brainwashing and indoctrination, I would be in my political science course, and my teacher was a total leftist, and she would be talking about just how horrible the conservatives are, and how horrible that the right is, and everything like that.
And so I would raise my hand every single day in class, and I would say, actually, teacher, that's wrong.
You know, I would every single day.
Try and school my teacher because she was saying wrong things and I wanted the other students to see.
And then I would have other students in my class come up to me afterwards and they'd be like, hey Will, I heard what you said in class today and I really like it.
You think we could be friends?
I just don't feel brave enough to say it.
And I'm like, no.
I don't want to be your friend.
If you are not brave enough to be someone who is going to stand up in class or whatever circumstance when you are supposed to stand up for these values, then I don't see how you and I can be these friends.
If you have these values and you have these ideas, me becoming a conservative, right?
Like I said, I was a leftist before.
I dropped out of school after two years to move to Los Angeles with no money or anything to come and work for PragerU and make content and influence people and change people's minds.
And I did that because I know that if I have all this information inside my head, all these values and ideas that I can influence people with, I have to do something about it.
I feel called to go and do something about it and share those ideas.
So like I said, I've been in Los Angeles now for about the past four years.
Started with an internship at PragerU back when Dennis Prager didn't really know my name and forget it.
But now Dennis Prager and I are, you know, I don't want to say best friends.
Pretty much best friends.
Pretty good buddies.
Yeah, pretty good pals.
So it's just been an awesome ride.
You know, my videos alone have acquired about 500 million views online.
Made some mini documentaries.
Author of my book, How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies, which you guys can pre-order online.
I do national speaking.
So it's just been, that's where I came from.
And, yeah.
Right.
And I think Will and I both had very similar but different upbringings and journeys into the political world.
I'm new to PragerU.
We're running on my sixth month now.
But hi, everybody.
My name is Amalette Benobi.
My background is I was raised by a single mother of three who happened to be a leftist fundraising organizer.
So she works currently for a leftist organization out in Florida and is doing their fundraising and grant writing and things of that nature.
So I grew up with that experience and that sort of influence for much of my young adult life and I was an atheist, angry leftist and I carried that with me throughout middle school and high school and I was that kid who was constantly picking arguments with the kids that I knew were conservative.
Anybody who would make any sort of statement that leaned right or was politically conservative, I was going after and I was coming for their throats and there was nothing you could do to stop me.
Well this is so surprising because if you guys know Amla, Most of you don't know her personally, like I know Amla.
But Amla is one of the sweetest people I've ever met.
Now I am.
You're very nice.
It's hard to have such a hard switch from being an angry leftist to someone who is very nice and open to hearing other people's ideas.
Right.
It was a journey.
I think being on the left, you have this inherent disillusion with the world, with America, and you have a hatred because you feel like systems are against you, and that's how I felt.
Now, contrary to Will, I didn't grow up in a leftist area.
I grew up in a very rural conservative white area, and you couldn't have told me that conservatives were good people, that they were kind.
I would have believed the exact opposite, even though I never experienced that in my day-to-day life.
So when I graduated high school, I started working for a leftist organization as a youth organizer, which meant that I was traveling around to middle schools and high schools, finding students who were already leaning left, pushing them further to that side, getting them involved in protests and door-knocking and activism, and then funneling them through our organization, which a lot of people don't recognize is that a lot of the young people who work for the left have been sort of recruited by these organizations.
And that's exactly what I was doing.
And through that work, I sort of realized that leftist ideology in no way supported my experience, my beliefs, and my values.
And they started to question what I was hearing.
And every day I would go into work and you would just hear blatant racism towards white people specifically.
For those of you who don't know me, I was raised by my white family.
So I couldn't understand and I couldn't grapple with the fact that I was working with people who hated the people that raised me, who hated half of who I was.
And that sort of started a moral dilemma within my own mind.
I started to question not only that, but everything I was doing for this organization.
And when I brought up questions and concerns to leadership...
At this non-profit.
Nobody wanted to hear what I had to say.
Nobody wanted to answer the questions that I had.
So I was forced to go out and look for answers elsewhere.
And through that, I found people like Dennis Prager.
I found Prager University videos.
I found Daily Wire.
I found Tom Soule.
And those sort of influences, those kind conservatives who were just simply trying to explain fact to me and tell me, hey, I feel bad that you are brainwashed currently.
I feel bad that you think that you're a victim, that you think that you're oppressed.
Here's why you're not.
And that sort of compassionate arguing woke me up and it made me want to do the same thing.
So I spent about a year and a half studying my conservative views, working myself from leftism over to conservatism and realizing the error of my ways.
And then I started making videos online.
PragerU found me through that because they kind of took TikTok by storm, the platform that I started on.
And now I'm here, about five and a half months later.
You're listening to all those racist Nazi bigots, it sounds like.
Right!
Conservative propaganda shoved down your throat.
It's funny because that's exactly what I expected to hear from conservatives.
I thought, oh my goodness, I'm going to go on the internet and I'm going to look this stuff up and I'm going to learn how oppressed I am and I'm going to learn how much people really hate me.
And I got the exact opposite experience.
That's the best thing about it.
I think Amla and I have...
A unique perspective on a lot of stuff, because I'll hear from a lot of conservative people, lots of conservative talk show hosts or people online, and it's like they were raised conservative their whole life and never really interacted with people on the left too much.
I don't want to say this bad.
If you have kids, you should raise them conservative from the time they're young, okay?
I'm not saying that's a bad thing.
But I'm saying that a lot of people who have been conservative their whole life or maybe haven't been exposed to other ideas are missing out on a lot of...
What the left actually believes.
When Amal and I are making debates on our show, as well as on this show or whatever else we're doing, we're not strawmanning the argument because we were there.
We know what these people on the left think because we were those leftists.
We know what they believed in.
So when we're fighting against their ideas, we can actually give people a very level-headed approach and say, hey, here's what worked for us.
Here's what changed our minds.
Here's how we can actually wake people up who are on the other side versus, you know, just...
Conservative talking points from the 1980s that people have been using since Reagan.
It's like those types of things aren't necessarily going to work.
There's a new way to influence conservative people now.
Right, and it's so easy to hop into the political space and polarize it even more and say, I'm a conservative, I'm going to stick to the conservative people I know, I'm going to run through the talking points on that end, and I don't have any interest in talking to leftists or being friends with leftists or making any sort of relationship with them because they're beyond reach, they're beyond hope.
But I am that leftist that you left behind and that you didn't talk to, and I was as far left as probably anybody can imagine, and my mother now is as far left as I can imagine.
So people coming out and being compassionate and talking to you can really make a lot of difference.
And it doesn't matter how far along you think a person is.
They can be reached.
You just have to do it in the right way.
You just have to strike the chord with them.
And it has to affect you personally for you to really wake up and realize that.
And Will, you had that experience, right?
Yeah.
Almost everyone can be reached.
There are some who are very far that can't be reached.
I don't want to say that it's going to work for everyone.
But even Amla, she was way further left than I was because she was speaking at March for Our Live speeches on our show, Will and Amla Live on PragerU.
We went through her speech.
We reacted to it.
It was cringey.
It makes me cringe just thinking about it.
It was something that I guarantee you guys wouldn't want to hear before, but now knowing Amla, it's good to look back and know.
But guys, on PragerU, we do a lot of that kind of stuff.
We showcase We'll be back after the break.
Thanks, guys.

On top of the collapse of the commitment to free enterprise represented by the Democratic Party's full embrace of socialism and the passage of a full-on socialist budget by Bernie Sanders in the Senate after already four trillion dollars of spending over two years it will mean $8 trillion of printed money.
I was feeling pretty low last night saying, my gosh, what have we done for 20 years?
What have we been fighting for for 40 years?
If we're just going to be a socialist, backwaters country that can't keep our commitments to people we fight for.
I began my life with the fall of southern Vietnam.
Helicopters on the embassy in Saigon.
I went to college.
I was a sophomore in college when that happened, 1975. And here we are.
Kabul will look that way within 30 days.
You just realize there's a 1994 out there somewhere.
There's a 1980 out there somewhere.
Indeed, I think we're going to wipe out the Democrats.
This country does not want to be a socialist country.
And the Democrats are socialists.
All of them.
They all voted for it.
Now it's going to go to the House.
It's a pure transfer of wealth.
It's taking the money you earn.
They're going to tax at death everything you've got.
They're going to not raise the basis.
Your houses, your farms, your businesses are going to take them away from your kids.
And tax them, make them sell them, take 45 to 55% of that, and put it into their plans to pay their buddies off in the teachers' unions.
And they're going to mask your kids, and they're going to ignore your demands of critical race theory be booted out.
And you know what?
Time to rise and fight again.

The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times has put forward a horrifyingly honest argument about abortion.
The headline it ran was this.
The right to an abortion means the right to have it for any reason.
They intend for abortion to be available for any reason, at any time, or for no reason.
Their focus was a law passed in 2017 by the legislature in Ohio, a law that seeks to prevent abortion on the grounds that the unborn baby has been diagnosed with Down syndrome.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times is saying that it is wrong to try to protect unborn babies that are diagnosed with Down syndrome by such a law.
Why is it wrong?
Because, says the editorial board, it interferes with what is a greater good than human dignity in the womb.
And that means a woman's absolute autonomy.
And what the paper claims is her constitutional right to destroy the life within her.
Like I said, this editorial is honest.
It's also horrifying.
I'm Albert Mohler.

This is really crucially important.
The lessons of the last 20 years is that we are peerless.
Our military, when it comes to the application of military force at the tactical or even operational level, has no match in the world, especially Operation Anaconda.
Hello everybody.
We are your stand-in hosts for today.
I'm Amala Benobi.
This is Will Witt.
We're both with PragerU, we're their PragerU personalities.
And if you've been reading the news at all this week, or been on Twitter or Instagram or any sort of social media, you've been hearing about Afghanistan and the sort of tragic implications that are coming out of our subsequent departure from that country.
Now, I wanted to play a clip from the Taliban government in regard to their treatment of women and the women's rights that they're planning to give them.
them.
So let's hear this clip.
I want to ask you about women's rights and girls' rights to women and women's rights.
What insurances have you given to women and girls and their rights will be given to women?
Women would be afforded all their rights, whether it is work or other activities, because women are a key part of society.
And we are guaranteeing all their rights within the limits of Islam.
Mmm!
Wow!
Wow.
That's really promising.
We're going to guarantee them all their rights within the limits of Islam.
We've been seeing videos come out of Afghanistan right now where women have been treated.
There's no better word to say it than just horribly.
Women have been treated horribly in Afghanistan right now by the Taliban.
And it's a stark difference to what we see in America right now.
Because in America today, you go anywhere where there are people who are on the left and they will tell you that they are oppressed.
Especially leftist women will tell you about the patriarchy and tell you about racism and all these different things.
And tell you that you are so oppressed for living in America.
What a lie that is.
When you can just do a simple People look around the world.
Look at what is happening right now in Afghanistan.
Look at what's happening in Somalia, other places around the world, and say this is a real...
Patriarchy, not what people are complaining about here in America.
Right, yet semantically it's the same, and then people on the left have gone sort of quiet in regard to what's happening in Afghanistan right now, and it really makes you think about what's important to people on the left, specifically the bureaucrats, the elites, and the people running mainstream media.
It's more important that they uphold their falsehood, that they convince you of your own oppression and victimhood, than to be truthful about what's actually happening here in America.
Now recently I've been listening to the testimony of a young woman by the We're good to go.
Through China.
And then eventually brought over to America.
And she talks about the oppression that she faced in North Korea.
Yet she says that real oppression is to know that you are not oppressed.
And to not even realize that the oppression is occurring.
Yet in America, we are so well aware of all the oppression that we're experiencing.
I'm so aware of the patriarchy that I face as a woman and the racism that I face as a black woman.
Oh yeah, when fast food companies are oppressing me with their racism, I know straight up exactly what's happening, right?
Everything.
But it's wild, because look at what you have in America, okay?
The left will come on and they will say, America is built on all of this racism and patriarchy, and then they'll claim that the founding of this country, they'll claim that the Constitution, they'll say that the major institutions in America, like the mainstream media, Hollywood, the universities, all of these things have institutional racist structures, patriarchal structures, conservative structures that keep minorities and these progressive down.
And it's like, if all of the biggest institutions in America, the government, university, Hollywood, academia, like if all of these major institutions in America were against the left and progressives and minorities, why would they all constantly be preaching about these very issues?
Shouldn't they be trying to silence that type of speech?
Shouldn't they be trying to silence speech that disagrees with their overall institutional oppression?
Of course not.
If there was really this racist, oppressive country, you wouldn't have every single major institution in America being controlled by the left.
But what you have in America is the left and all of these major institutions have lied to you.
They have told you that conservatives are the party of the rich and that we're the ones up top pulling the strings and trying to control people.
Look at Aspen, Colorado.
In 2016, Aspen, Colorado went 45 points above for Hillary Clinton than did Donald Trump in the 2016 election.
The major districts there that are incredibly wealthy some of the wealthiest places in America went for Hillary Clinton.
The left is the party of the rich, the party of these people who control these institutions, and then tell you that you are being oppressed by conservatives who aren't in these institutions in the first place.
Right, and let's break it down specifically in regard to patriarchy.
Like we said, what we're seeing right now in Afghanistan under Taliban rule is truly patriarchy.
It is women having absolutely no rights and being subjugated by the men in their nation.
Yet we're being told that there's a patriarchy here in America.
Now, I've said this over and over, I'll say it again.
It's never been a better time to be here.
I'm looking at it through the lens of sexual assault and rape, and that's why we live in a patriarchy.
But there are so many other lenses to look at the world through.
And when it comes to different societal factors, let's look at suicide, depression, anxiety, homelessness, jail time, fatherlessness, men are the ones who are most affected by these These oppressive factors and these horrible prerequisites to not being successful.
So in what way do we live in a patriarchy today?
I'm oppressing you, Amelie.
I feel it, I guess.
Let's cut off her mic so I can oppress her some more.
No, but it's like, even though for white straight men, as I am myself, if you're only listening to this, you can't see my glorious mustache and whiteness, but if you are watching this, you can see.
But even as someone who, as Amla points out, it's a tough time to be that type of person in America, I don't want to say it's all bad for my people.
I don't want to come on and say that I am oppressed or anything like that.
One thing that conservatives do that leftists don't, and going back to Ayn Rand, where Ayn Rand talks about the individual as the smallest minority, conservatives look at people as individuals and say, look, Amala, she's black, she's a conservative, all this, but that stuff doesn't necessarily matter.
It matters what her values and her insight is.
Well, straight white male, the left will say, oh, he's a straight white male, and group me in with other straight white males, where a real conservative will look at me and say, Will believes this.
Will really loves disc golf.
Will really loves...
Pizza with anchovies on it.
Whatever it is, right?
But they'll look at my individual factors and break it down that way instead of saying, oh, he's part of this larger group.
And the left works on collectivism.
Collectivism.
They put the good of the society, quote-unquote, above the good of the individual.
You know, you've heard millions of times, for the greater good.
More harm has been done in the name of the greater good than any other ideology in history.
Right, and let's truly break it down and say that those little things, like what will values and what I... And Tom Soul breaks this down a lot in discrimination and disparities.
He talks about the fact that prerequisites like, do you have both parents in the household?
Did your parents read to you?
Did you go to school and get a proper education?
Are far more important and are going to show you how successful you are going to be in the future than your skin tone or your gender.
And that's what we try to talk about a lot at Now, Will, you want people to call in.
Can you give them the number?
Of course I do.
Everyone, call in, even if you hate us.
We might even prefer you to call in if you hate us.
1-8-Prager-776.
You can call in 1-8-Prager-776.

Let's talk about something that's not superb, not superb, not superb.
And that's Sasha, don't call me Mr. Windman and his flip-flops and his posing around with...
Oh, hang on.
I've got it here.
It's Arnold.
Screw your freedom.
Schwarzenegger.
This is radio, Kurt.
You've got to do more than give me his face.
Well, you want me to say FCC compliant, don't you?
Yes, try.
Please try to not say those seven naughty words.
Well, look, I find it a massive embarrassment that a former governor of our biggest state in the union casually dismisses freedom the way this guy does.
It shows he has a basic misunderstanding of the concept.
Maybe he needs to go back and reread his citizenship.
Uh, study materials, because freedom is the most important thing.
I am always, I find it remarkable that I have to repeat on Twitter, uh, to, to the consternation of liberals, that why, yes, my rights are more important than your life and my life, because, uh, hundreds of thousands of Americans have died for their rights.
There are always, there are always people, Dr. Gorka, who are willing to allow you to live as a sir.
They will allow you to continue to live as long as you obey them and disenfranchise yourself and give up your rights.
You will probably be able to live.
Not always.
Sometimes they'll just murder you because they want to.
If you dip your toe into liberal Twitter, you'll see that that's one of their hot fantasies.
The fact is rights are more important than your life.

Training now on the Charlie Kirk show. - Because all it takes is one example of something that works.
And that's why Florida and Hungary, in my opinion, are so similar, right?
Florida's the domestic example of a more orderly, common sense approach to the land of the insane, right?
And they hate that.
Like, we must crush Ron DeSantis.
We must crush Victor Orban, right?
Right, and notice that the people calling for crushing other people are the ones calling you a fascist.
So the very people who are like, oh, no, it's totally normal to fire someone from his job because I disagree with him.
It's totally normal to beat someone up for having a Trump hat on.
You know, a political party that I don't support?
Yeah, we should beat him up.
It's totally cool to burn your cities on the basis of political ideology, BLM, over the last year and a half.
No, it's totally fine.
But if you disagree that you're the fascist, it's like at a certain point, you know, I think we're too literal.
I know that I certainly am way too literal.
Every night, you know, I'm writing my scripts and I'm like, I can't, but that's the opposite of the truth.
And at a certain point, that's on me.
Of course, it's the opposite of the truth.
It's a totalitarian worldview that inverts reality for its own power.
Like, that's just what it is.
And if I continue to be surprised by it, then I'm the moron.
The question is, what do you do about it?
And I'm not sure I know the answer.
I mean, I'm not in charge of anything.
I'm just a talk show host, so my job is just to, like, say it out loud.
I think that's a helpful first step.
But you can see where this is going.
I mean, CNN just fired three employees for not getting the vaccine.
Just fired them.
Like, right out of...
And no one said anything.
That's totally normal.
Take a man's livelihood away because he won't take a medicine that you want him to take?
That he may not need?
That he certainly doesn't want?
And he can't work in this country?
Do we want to live in that country?
I don't, you know, I don't.
I don't.
Buddy, or good evening, or afternoon, wherever you are.

Hopefully just listening, enjoying Amla and I, voices, talking about awesome things.
Sometimes not so awesome, though.
Sometimes not so awesome.
It's awesome when we talk about it, okay?

That's what PragerU does.
But I've got to talk to you guys about Pure Talk real quick.
Take a look at your cell phone bill.
If you're with Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile, you're paying too much.
I want you to switch to Pure Talk.
PureTalk can save your family over $800 a year.
Yes, same great coverage because PureTalk is on the exact same network as one of the big three, but a fraction of the price.
And switching is as easy as switching out your SIM card.
You can keep your phone, keep your number, or get huge discounts on the latest iPhones and Androids.
Dennis Prager got the iPhone 12, and he loves it.
Plus, right now, unlimited talk, text, and 6 gigs of data for just $30 a month.
And if you go over on data, they don't charge you for it.
There's a reason Pure Talk is the highest rated wireless company by Consumer Affairs, why they're the preferred wireless partner of AMAC. From your cell phone, dial pound 250 and say Dennis Prager and save an additional 50% off your first month.
That's pound 250, say Dennis.
Prager.
Wow, Will.
If things at Prager U don't work out, you have an amazing career ahead of you in ad reading.
Have you ever heard of relief factor?
I'm ready to do it.
Yeah, here we go.
Guys, the story we want to talk about on this segment today.
We live in California.
We live in Los Angeles, specifically.
And things...
I hate to say it, but things just seem to be getting worse.
Would you agree?
Yeah, you're not wrong, and I've only been here for a short period of time, but I've seen it sort of descend into madness, and it seems like it's getting worse.
In just about the last four years that I've been here, even in four years, which isn't really that long of time, It has gotten worse.
And with the COVID lockdowns and the restrictions and the mask mandates, things have gotten even worse.
San Francisco, which is right up north from us, about a five-hour drive, has put in vaccine passports within their city.
So this means that I think it's going into effect later in September.
But this means that if you go to a gym, an indoor restaurant, some sort of entertainment, you have to be vaccinated.
New York City just put out their list of places that you have to be vaccinated for as well.
Springs, I believe, did the same thing, and I can only imagine that Los Angeles is not going to be beat out by New York in terms of leftism, and they are going to choose to do the exact same thing.
The entire state of California just made it so that if you have an event with over 1,000 people at it, then you all have to be vaccinated as well.
How they actually enforce something like that, I don't know.
I'm just only going to be doing events for 999 people, I guess, in the future.
How are they going to enforce that?
I don't know.
But it seems to me that if you go on Twitter and you look at the comments underneath these announcements, mainstream news is reporting on these types of things, people are totally fine with going and giving up their freedom.
Right.
And it begs the question, do we even cherish freedom in this nation anymore?
And with the commentary that I'm seeing on this, of course it's from the left mostly.
But I'm finding that people don't even understand what it means to live in a free society anymore.
And it's because we're so detached from our history, our founding, what it means to have freedom, liberty, your pursuit of happiness.
It's scary to think that it's not even a value that we hold dear anymore, so people are not even familiar with it.
And as somebody who worked in medicine before coming to PragerU, it's amazing to me to see how fast our HIPAA violations and that sort of legislation was thrown out the window.
Now you can ask anybody about their medical information.
And we're at a turning point right now at a society.
We need to do something now before it gets beyond this, before it gets to vaccine mandates where you are.
Really, our turning point was back when...
COVID-19 first was announced and they went through the first lockdown measure.
They shut down our economy.
They forced everybody to be in our homes.
That should have been when people started questioning whether or not we were headed down the path of tyranny.
But we didn't.
We allowed the government to lock us down.
We allowed them to shut down the economy.
And now here we are.
We've tested.
They tested us and they said, how much do you value freedom?
And we told them that we don't value it at all.
So now they're pushing the bounds of it and they're trying to find out where the line is.
And look at Australia right now.
Absolutely insane what is happening.
People are being arrested for going outside.
They can't even drink outdoors.
And Democrats in New York City, a congressman in New York City, just introduced a bill here in America that you can't fly domestically unless you're vaccinated.
Look, go get vaccinated.
Go do whatever you want, okay?
It's your body, your choice.
All right, we're going to use that argument now as conservatives.
But people think...
That there is this sort of consensus of people, and I'm going to get into this in the next segment, but we're running out of time on this segment.
So if go, go call 1-8 Prager-776.
Get on the phone with us, 1-8 Prager-776, so that we can take your calls on the next segment and talk about all the craziness going on.
And if you support...

Tyson Foods Incorporated cannot increase prices for chicken and prepare foods fast enough to keep pace with rising costs for raw materials like grain due to Bidenflation.
Bidenflation.
Say it with me.
Tyson increased their prices.
To their restaurant customers.
And you're thinking like, okay, so what?
I don't care if they increase it to their restaurant customers.
That's for people that are going out.
We're not going out to eat anymore.
It's not going to affect us.
Aha!
Aha!
Yes, it will.
As of September 5th, the retail prices are going to rise significantly for the consumers.
Can you say thank you, Biden?
Can you say thank you, Biden?
Guys, I want to tell you, and I don't say this lightly, but make sure you stash some cash at home.
Make sure you stash a little more food at home than normal.
We're not getting away from inflation.
Not with this administration and the White House.
It's just not going to happen.
They are spending like crazy.
They're spending our money.
The CEO of Tyson Chicken said, and I quote, He said we've seen unprecedented and accelerating inflation, and we're trying to catch up.
We're trying to catch up with that.
They can't even catch up with how fast inflation is occurring.
That means we're going to pay for it.
Thanks, Joe Biden.

I have campaign expenditure limitations Gavin Newsom does not.
He can raise and spend...
An unlimited amount of money.
And shortly after it was obvious I was going to get into the race, the union, SEIU union, gave him $5 million for the anti-recall side.
And just a couple of days ago, the teachers union, the largest funder of his campaign, gave him an additional $1.8 million.
It is estimated he's going to raise a minimum of $50 million, maybe as much as $75 million to defeat me.
You were praising my courage.
Let me just say something about that.
I get that a lot, and I have to push back because I'm not storming the beaches of Normandy.
Unlike my father, I was never a Marine.
Unlike my older brother, I was never a member of the Navy.
Like my little brother, I was never a member of the Army.
I did not serve.
And about all the things I've ever done in my life, that's probably the thing that I regret the most, that I didn't give back a few years to my country.
So this is a small sacrifice.
I'm losing a little bit of money, well, actually a lot of money compared to my net worth.
And of course, nobody's lived a pure life and anything.
Will Witt here and Amla Ekpanobi.
We are back talking to you guys this morning.
Remember, if you want to be on the show, talk to Amla and I about whatever it is that you want to talk about.
1-8 Prager-776.
Get your phone out and call us.
1-8 Prager-776.
Now, before we get into some of these calls, I want to finish.
My thoughts from last one.
And I've talked about on this show before about the majority versus the minority.
That apparently people think that because they are in the majority, it makes them virtuous for being in that consensus.
But what is wrong in America when you have this consensus of people is that people think that because you have this consensus, it makes you morally right.
And what did we have in the 1930s in Nazi Germany?
What did we have?
Basically, every single doctor and every single medical institution in Germany agreed with the Third Reich.
And many of them, hundreds of them, joined the Nazis in their experimentation and the horrible things that the Nazis did.
And those were doctors in Germany, okay?
And so just because we have this group of doctors in America right now who say, oh, we all agree with this quote-unquote science and all this from the CDC and all that, does not mean that everything they are saying is true.
Or even more, So I just want people to look at it and say, when people come up to you and say, well, all these doctors agree and all these people in my history class agree and all these people in my work agree, that doesn't mean that they are right.
And you can be a warrior by fighting against people who want to oppress you through their use of the majority.
Be a strong minority, as in the strongest individual who stands up for what they believe in.
All right, let's get into some of these calls.
Just had to finish that up because I thought I sounded pretty smart there.
Okay, all right, let's get into Lynn from Los Angeles, California.
Lynn?
Hi there, how are you doing today?
I'm wonderful, Lynn.
Great, how are you?
I'm doing okay, but feeling quite concerned.
I'm here in the belly of the beast, Los Angeles, where the LA City Council, the County Board of Supervisors, LAUSD, are all...
Voting for vaccine mandates for teachers, health care workers, state and federal employees, and in some cases, children, schoolchildren.
And it is very, very...
I'll say there are a lot of people that are very frightened, don't know what to do.
people who are literally being, who cannot be vaccinated for, let's say, medical reasons or religious belief reasons.
It's absolutely crazy, Lynn.
Thank you, Lynn.
Appreciate the call.
It's a scary time, but what I can say is a silver lining is that there's never been a better time to stand up and fight against this sort of stuff.
And it's going to prove your character and your moral value if you do so.
It is very easy to go with the grain and to submit to people and to do exactly what they say because your life will be easier.
Your job isn't threatened.
People aren't going to be mad at you and your community.
But it's an even bigger feat to stand up and go against the grain and say, no, I'm not going to do that.
And when you do so, later down the line, you will be so proud of yourself for doing that, for standing up.
And you're also going to find that there's a large community of people who will back you up.
Will and I know that.
We're going to be attending a rally this Saturday.
Will, you want to tell them about that?
Yeah, we are.
I'm speaking, and Amla is singing the National Anthem, which she's nervous for, but she's going to do a fantastic job, at noon at 1615 Ocean Avenue.
That's Tongva Park, I believe I'm saying that right, in Santa Monica, but it's 1615 Ocean Avenue.
You can come meet me, come meet Amla, come hear me speak, and Amla is singing the National Anthem.
I hope to see every single Californian there, or Los Angeles.
Los Angelino.
Yes, exactly.
You know, whatever you guys are called.
They're supporting us and showing that you aren't going to say no to this.
And let's look at just, I mean, the vaccine mandates for teachers and for schools and everything, and then the mask mandates for kids going back to school.
You understand that children have a 99.99% rate of survival from this virus, right?
It is absolutely insane.
What do the masks do?
What do the masks do?
Well, let's look at Afghanistan right now, when they're implementing Sharia law.
They're putting women in these hijabs and the burqas, basically covering their face, so that they are not seen by other people, okay?
So that people cannot understand them and see their nonverbal communications through the 42 muscles that you have in your face.
What are you doing when you put children in these masks, in their schools?
You can't understand any of the nonverbal communication that is going on between children.
So they're not able to communicate with each other.
This is going to have detrimental effects on society and people growing up in America for the unforeseeable future.
It's going to be a travesty with this.
You want to take another call, Will?
Sure.
Let's do it.
Let's take another call.
All right.
Let's take Tony.
Tony in Santa Clarita, California.
Hello, Tony.
Hey, Angelo, when you were a teenager and you were a radical leftist, and you said if someone offended you, you would get into their throat and start yelling at them.
Right.
If you were a boy and someone got violent with you, would you go complain?
Or if you had a boyfriend who did the same and someone got violent with him, would you go complain?
Because a verbal assault is an assault, and you could combat it with violence if you have to.
Oh, no, it wasn't really anything like that.
It was more so when I was in school and I knew somebody was conservative, which was basically everybody growing up where I was.
I would be the one who, in speech class, was going to give a five-minute speech on abortion or the legacy of slavery and why there are still remnants of racism, and I would do so in a very passionate and angry way.
It was never any sort of aggression or assault that I experienced, although I would have probably told everybody that it was because I was a leftist.
No, Amela used to go and give the conservative kids wedgies.
Give them swirlies after class.
Yeah, if you saw my little noodle arms, you would know that that's not the case.
Alright, let's take one more call.
We're going to take it from Joe from Chicago, Illinois.
What's going on, Joe?
Hey guys, great show.
Really impressed by your guys' opinions and knowledge.
I'm a 57-year-old white male, live in Chicago, and I used to love Chicago.
Born and raised here, it has turned into really just a hellhole.
And my problem in my calling, it was more related to Amala, I find myself fighting racism that I never had before.
Shoved down my throat.
We have a mayor.
We have...
It is everywhere, Joe.
I appreciate it.
Thank you for the call, Joe.
The racism is real, and it is real on the side of being a white male in America, and it's a really tough thing to have to grapple with, while at the same time the mainstream media is telling us that black people are oppressed, that Hispanic people are oppressed, that Asian people are oppressed.
There is no sympathy for the white male in this nation, and we talk about that more at PragerU.

This is Albert Moeller for townhall.com.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times has put forward a horrifyingly honest argument about abortion.
The headline it ran was this.
The right to an abortion means the right to have it for any reason.
They intend for abortion to be available for any reason, at any time, or for no reason.
Their focus was a law passed in 2017 by the legislature in Ohio, a law that seeks to prevent abortion on the grounds that the unborn baby has been diagnosed with Down syndrome.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times is saying that it is wrong to try to protect unborn babies that are diagnosed with Down syndrome by such a law.
Why is it wrong?
Because, says the editorial board, it interferes with what is a greater good than human dignity in the womb, and that means a woman's absolute autonomy.
Like I said, this editorial is honest.
It's also horrifying.
I'm Albert Moeller.
This is really crucially important.
The lessons of the last 20 years is that we are peerless.
Our military, when it comes to the application of military force at the tactical or even operational level...
It has no match in the world, especially Operation Anaconda.
The October 2001 operation, when we went in there with just a couple of hundred CIA paramilitaries and guys from Delta and from Bragg, and we leveraged 21,000 members of the Northern Alliance, and we took down the Taliban government, that was textbook.
Nobody, not even Julius Caesar, not Napoleon, could do it better.
But since then, at the strategic level, Kurt, it's been a disaster.
It's been an utter disaster, and frankly, I'm worried about the tactical level.
I'm worried that whether or not we still maintain the tactical capabilities that we need for high-intensity combat operations against peer-level competitors like the Chinese.
Especially, and I write about this in my Monday Town Hall column, Dr. Gorka, especially when you look at the Navy.
For nearly 70 years, it has glided on the legacy of...
The military triumphs in the Pacific Theater over the Japanese.
And we relied on, we consoled ourselves, saying, well, you know, the Chinese technology's getting better, they're getting more and more ships, but we have a naval tradition.
You know what?
So did the Carthaginians.
Okay?
The Romans had no navy until they found a Carthaginian warship that run aground, they copied it, they trained, and they beat the hell out of Carthaginians.
Carthage.
You can find Rome in ruins.

I wanted to give just a quick note to the last call from Joe and say that, yes, racism towards white people specifically, specifically white males, is growing in America.
The best thing that you can do to combat that is to sort of take the blame away from white people.
There's no reason you should be punished for the transgressions of your ancestors.
And another thing that you can do is dispel the myth of systemic racism in America.
And I want to do that with this story that I'm going to tell.
Will and I on our We talk about different historical events, and a person that I want to highlight is somebody by the name of Joe Louis Clark.
You may not have ever heard of him.
His other moniker is the Batman.
Now, Joe Louis Clark was born in 1937 in Georgia, a time which would have been illustrated as peak racism in America.
Yet, Joe Louis Clark was able to ascend that.
He ended up graduating.
He went to college.
He received an honorary doctorate and eventually became a military drill sergeant.
And this is, of course, a young black man in America during the 1960s.
And he imagined himself to be successful and made himself prevail.
After becoming a drill sergeant, he left that job and became the principal of Eastside High School, a school that was completely wrought with drug violence and gang violence and prostitution.
And in doing so, he would walk around the halls with a baseball bat and a bullhorn.
And he would threaten any student that was coming to push drugs or to create violence or to start gang-associated groups at the school.
And he turned it around.
In his first week, he expelled over 300 students.
And what would you know?
No.
Eastside High School became a well-performing school.
The whole community cleaned up.
The school test scores went up.
And Joe Louis Clark was able to give hope to an entire group of young black Americans in Patterson, New Jersey.
Right, but the left thinks that the only way that you can actually fix these quote-unquote systemic problems are through oppression and taking down the institutions and tearing them all down, when in reality you can just have people who are...

On top of the collapse of the commitment to free enterprise represented by the Democratic Party's full embrace of socialism and the passage of a full-on socialist budget by Bernie Sanders in the Senate, after already $4 trillion of spending over two years, it will mean $8 trillion of printed money.
I was feeling pretty low last night saying, my gosh, what have we done for 20 years?
What have we been fighting for for 40 years?
If we're just going to be a socialist, backwaters country that can't keep our commitments to people we fight for.

Helicopters on the embassy in Saigon.

You just realize there's a 1994 out there somewhere.
There's a 1980 out there somewhere.
Indeed, I think we're going to wipe out the Democrats.
This country does not want to be a socialist country.
And the Democrats are socialists.
All of them.
They all voted for it.
Now it's going to go to the House.
It's a pure transfer of wealth.
It's taking the money you earn.
They're going to tax at death everything you've got.
They're going to not raise the basis.
Your houses, your farms, your businesses are going to take them away from your kids.
And tax them, make them sell them, take 45 to 55% of that, and put it into their plans to pay their buddies off in the teachers' unions.
And they're going to mask your kids, and they're going to ignore your demands of critical race theory be booted out.
And you know what?

Amla Epinovi, 21 years old, PragerU personality, Will Witt, 24. 24 going on 39. Also PragerU personality.
Now, we've talked a little bit about the narrative of victimhood and that mentality, specifically within communities of color, and that sort of narrative is perpetuated by mainstream media, by social media, and by none other than the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party.
They love to sort of espouse that propaganda here in the United States.
United States while committing atrocities in their own country.
We found a video here created by the CCP to talk about CRT.
Let's give that a listen.
Let's give it a listen.
Let's give it a listen. - Gosh. - Alright, folks.
You heard it here first.
You can't just be not racist.
You have to be anti-racist.
And this is anti-racist according to the CCP standards, the Chinese Communist Party, who in and of itself, they're racist.
The CCP is racist against many different groups within their society.
I mean, look at how black people are treated in China, not nearly as well as white people are treated in China, or Chinese people are treated in China.
Who are these people to come and tell us that this is how we're supposed to live our lives?
It is obviously a ploy by China to divide us.
Right, and it's clear, and not only are they committing atrocities in regard to race, they're committing atrocities in regard to religion.
Look at the concentration camps that they're running in their country currently.
Yet, they are spending their time and resources promoting CRT here in America, and not just for America's adults, for America's youth, which is a really, really pressing issue.
If you can influence young people at a young age, as Will and I have both shown, you can sort of indoctrinate them and push them down this road of leftism, which is going to destabilize.
And what happens when people believe that America is inherently racist, that our traditions, our values, our founding is set up with white supremacy and racism and discrimination?
They are completely disillusioned with America as a whole.
And there's no solution when you believe that an entire country is founded on racism.
Yet the CCP would have you believe that.
Now, leftists question this.
If the CCP is supporting your ideology and is making propagandized videos for American youth that support exactly what you say, are you really No.
It's like such a stupid question because it's so obvious to know.
It's like if your side is agreeing with the CCP, obviously your side is probably wrong because especially the CCP putting out this video where you guys just heard.
They don't believe it themselves.
They don't.
They don't believe any of this that they say out loud.
But they're putting it out there so that young leftists in America will continue to have division in this country.
It is a means to control us.
It is a means to divide our country from the inside.
And you'll see this with all of the leftist stuff in America.
All of the post-modernism, all of the racist propaganda and CRT and the trans things, every single, all of these things are created as a distraction against.
What America really stands for.
America stands on freedom and individual liberty and being able to make your own choices and that the individual is the smallest minority.
That's what America is about.
And your inalienable rights given to you by your creator.
Then you have all these people coming in and telling you that we want those rights taken away or these institutions that we created are disgusting and worthless.
What does that do to the American populace?
And I can't stress this enough.
Never forget that in China they are doing the exact opposite.
All the campaigns that they're funding here in America, they are doing the exact opposite.
Right now we see this rise in racism and of course the narrative of white supremacy.
We see this rise in effeminate men and very masculine females.
Yet in China they are doing the exact opposite.
While their country is funding the destabilization of America and funding these sort of campaigns that are making men and women weak.
And creating all this division and infighting among our citizens, they are building strong families.
They are building strong men.
They are building a strong military.
While our CIA and FBI and all of our different intelligence divisions and our military divisions are creating videos about how important it is that our agents and our soldiers are gay and trans and black and Latino, China is actually training.
Yeah, it's like one of our generals the other day.
He was being questioned, one of our woke generals, I believe it was Millie, he was getting questions about how many U.S. citizens do we have left in Afghanistan?
And he couldn't answer the question.
He didn't know.
It's like, this general couldn't tell you how many U.S. citizens we have left in Afghanistan, but I'm sure he could tell you how many trans people we have in the military.
The priorities of our military, the priorities of our bureaucracy, of the corporations, are all skewed in the wrong direction.
They're all skewed to the left.
Instead of giving us a sense of American pride, American nationalism, and saying, Because when people get divided this much, it can only lead to...
The Pentagon spokesman John Kirby, actually, who couldn't name the list of...
Right.
General Milley was the one who was on stage taking questions at a press conference, but months earlier was telling the American people how we need to focus as a military on white rage.
So while he's not well-versed in the happenings of Afghanistan, he's certainly well-versed in the writings of Robin DiAngelo and Ibram X. Kendi.
He's well aware of CRT.
He's well aware of how diverse our military is and how diverse the different missions that they're going on are, yet has no actual feel for the American people, has no actual feel for foreign relations or foreign affairs, because our focuses are in the wrong arena.
And don't forget that other countries know that.
Our enemies know that.
And if we can recognize that as a country, China is our biggest enemy, why would it seem that they are putting propaganda within our nation that supports the narrative of the left, supports the ideology of the left, supports the infighting of the left?
That's a question you should always ask yourself, especially in regard to a video like this.
And if you guys want to ask us questions, 1-8-Prager-776.
You guys can call in, 1-8-Prager-776.
Let's take a call right now.
We're going to take a call from Ken from Woodstock, Georgia.

Hey, how you doing?
Okay, good to talk to you.
Yeah, great.
I just have my 62nd birthday here, and you're supposed to say happy birthday.
Happy birthday!
Yeah, well, I have a real liberal brother.
My dad used to say if you're...
25 and under, and you're a liberal, that's okay, but if you're over that, you're mentally disturbed.
But anyway, he's 67 years old and a liberal, and we decided to invite him for the birthday party, and we knew that he would mandate masks in my own house.
So my wife, she's a seamstress, very good at what she does.
Put on the mask, Don't Fear the Reaper, and with the little deuces on the side, the cards, and the magician's hat.
And he entered the door and looked at us, and he literally walked away and went back home.
Man, that's tough, Ken.
Thank you so much for the call.
I appreciate it.
And I'm hearing these types of stories every single day, man.
I go on my social media and almost every single message I'm getting nowadays is how am I supposed to deal with my family in this situation?
How am I supposed to deal with my school mandating something or my workplace mandating something, whatever it is.
And it's happening every single day to tons of people.
And what I can give you guys, I can't give you all a specific answer for every situation because there are too many different situations out there.
But what I can tell you that what you need to do is be brave and stick with your guns and stand up for your values.
Your gut feelings are going to be right 90% of the time.

Thank you.
Now, when it comes to inflation, I want you to think of this.
This is an easy way for you to understand or to remember what inflation is if this is a topic that's somewhat new to you.
It's when too many dollars, so you have tons of money chasing too few goods.
There's not enough stuff to buy, in other words.
Or, think of Black Friday.
You know how...
All the stores try to get you in the stores during Christmas season, Thanksgiving, Christmas season, Black Friday.
You want to buy all this stuff.
And they always advertise this one laptop or this one television set that's going to be sitting right smack in the middle of the department store.
And they only have X amount.
Before they're absolutely gone and obviously their trick is to get you in the store so you can buy other stuff if you're in California so you can shoplift other stuff but in other places around the nation it's so you can buy other stuff so you walk into this store you get into or Well, you don't walk in on Black Friday.
You bum rush that store.
Are you set in line?
You have the money in your hands.
You're ready to go.
You've got all of this cash.
You've been saving.
And you're just ready to go.
You're like, I'm going to get my Christmas shopping done today.
You pull up.
You see the line.
And you're like, wow.
Everybody else, the 200 people standing in line in front of me, The same amount of money or cash that I do, but there's only 32 of those televisions.
Essentially, that's inflation.
The institutions, the AEIs, to double down and to send even more troops to Afghanistan.
Well, look, Mitt Romney got out there.
That's fine.
Why don't you send one of his 72 sons, none of whom served in the military?
I am sick of them squandering not only our treasure, but our blood.
On useless, poorly thought out military campaigns.
I was all for going in Afghanistan and wreaking unholy vengeance on the people who murdered Americans.
But then what happened, Dr. Gorka?
a complete strategic kale chase for 20 years.

Remember, I said they're going to borrow and spend a lot of money.
Now, you know, when the tax increases come up, this is going to be to borrow and spend enormous amounts of money, force inflation up without addressing even the safety net needs.
Forget about defense, which they're not spending any money on either, right?
Right.
And then it's...
It's ushering in its chaos, a sort of left-wing-flavored chaos.
And I think it's because they don't have the votes and they don't really have the plan to do anything else.
Now, you know Joe Biden and you know Bernie Sanders.
Is Joe Biden in charge of this?
Or has Bernie Sanders just been deferred to?
Yeah, I think this is sort of...
*music*
*music* Amla, do you know who sang that song, this opening song?
I did not.
You don't?
I was asking you behind the scenes.
It's Bob Dylan.
I don't, I don't, didn't recognize it.
Amala.
All right.
As you can see, we had people commenting about our wisdom.
I can see, you know, some of that argument.
Not knowing who Bob Dylan is.
It's okay.
I'm book smart, not street smart.
We'll do a Desolation Row listening party after this, okay?
All of you guys, thank you so much for listening.
Before we get into our segment right now, talking about some critical race theory and people standing up for what they believe in, let's take a call right now from Covey.
I don't know if that's how you pronounce your name.
Covey?
Covey?
In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Hello.
Covey.
Hey, it's Kofi, Kofi.
Kofi, like Kofefe, like Trump saying it.
Yeah, Kofi.
Okay, gotcha.
What's going on?
Hey, I'm a big fan of you guys, watching the show every day.
I'm fairly new to the right, and I was never a staunch leftist, though, but my question is, I've been starting to watch more right-wing media, and I feel like the right...
We spend our time bashing the left where, you know, I feel like we have the better ideas.
So I'm wondering, why don't we spend more time espousing our ideas as opposed to bashing the left?
Right.
And that's actually a great question, because Will and I also consume a lot of conservative media, and you will find that some people do sort of stick to the talking points and don't talk about solutions.
That's something that we try to do on our show.
And it's interesting because conservatives, our solution, is sort of reverting back to the founding, reverting back to the values that America had.
We've tried our solution, and it did work, but we've sort of just spun ourselves away from that route.
And we're hoping to get back to that root, and that's sort of our solution.
Yeah, conservatives by nature, I mean, it's in the name.
Conserve, right?
So when you're trying to inherently conserve something, it means you're not necessarily pushing for something new.
This is what I talk about in my book, How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies.
In my book, I talk about a vision for America.
Conservatives talk about how we want an economy like the 1980s and morality like the 1950s.
I'm less 21. I'm 24. Something like that doesn't give me a real standing to say, oh my goodness, I really want to be a conservative now.
PragerU is part of that and teaching people the real issues.
But it's like conservatives need more of a message to say, how do we get young people involved to say, I actually believe in this?
Because imagine, you're a young person, right?
You're a leftist or just nonpolitical person.
You get out of university.
You're $100,000 in debt.
You can go and work in some major urban city, and the left comes and says, we want to give you free health care, free education, free all this stuff.
And it's like, that sounds pretty good.
It's an easy sell.
It's an easy sell.
So when conservatives are coming on and explaining theills of the left and attacking the left's ideas, I agree with you 100% that conservatives are not giving enough of a solution to actually changing this.
But PragerU does have those solutions if you go to PragerU.com and also my book, How to Win Friends and Influence.
search it.
Let's get to this clip of a CRT dad who is standing up for the things that he believes in and actually giving solutions.
I want to read my economy tonight by reading a quote which in essence is the genesis of all of this Black Lives Matter, social justice CRT conversation we are having in our country today.
Quote, I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.
Quote, Colin Kaepernick, August 2016.
I am the direct descendant of the North American slave church.
I'll throw my parents again, I'll throw my pregnant parents again, I'll hate my great-great-parents, all 16 and my great-grace.
On my mother's side, my ancestors were enslaved in Alabama.
On my father's side, we were enslaved in Texas.
I am not oppressed.
I'm not oppressed and I'm not a victim.
I'm neither oppressed nor a victim.
I travel all across this country of ours.
And I check in the home service and I fall commercially.
I walk into retail establishments and I go wherever I want, whenever I want.
I am treated with tightness, dignity, and respect.
I have three children.
They are not oppressed either.
Although they are victims.
I have taught my children they are victims of three things.
Their own ignorance, their own laziness, and their own poor decision making.
That is all.
My children, we are not victims of America.
We are not victims of some unseen 119-year-old force that kind of floats around the ether.
What do you think of a race movement into our classrooms is taking our nation in the wrong direction?
Racism in America would by and large be dead today if it weren't for certain people and it's the teachers who are not allowed to support.
And sadly...
Yeah, that's what we're experiencing right now.
And this dad came to a school board and he perfectly verbalized.
And it's what all of our parents should be doing.
It's what all of our teachers should be doing, is fighting back against this ideology.
And he gets an amazing example of being somebody who is actually descendant of slaves and saying, you know what, I'm not oppressed, and I'm not going to teach my kids that they're oppressed.
I'm going to teach them that they should live with their own intent in mind, they should pursue their happiness, and that any sort of failure that they experience is due to their own choices and things that they've thought of and things that they decided to do.
Remember, you guys can call 1-8-Prager-776 to ask Amala and I questions or just talk to us about what's going on in the world right now.
And Amala, you're exactly right.
You are exactly right.
But people always ask.
I mean, again, people talking to me on social media or when I see them in person, what do I do?
This dad who just gave that speech is a perfect example of what you can do.
And people think that it's just like, oh, I'm one person.
What all am I going to do?
Look at the amount of support this guy's got.
What about someone like me who grew up in Colorado, became a liberal, and I was just some college kid who now became a conservative.
And it was like, what am I going to do?
Well, I'm going to get up off my butt and I'm going to go fight for these values and do something important, and that's what I've done.
So you can be one person and go out and change tons of people's minds or go out and change your entire community just by being one person to stand up, okay?
It seems like it's really hard.
It seems like it's really difficult, and I want to say, yes, it is.
No one said it was going to be easy, okay?
These things are very hard and very difficult, but you can sit there and you can choose to live your safe and comfortable life, okay?
I see evil happening in the world around me.
I am going to do my best to change it.
Right, and let's talk about solutions here, which is what our last call was about.
A way that we can succeed in this is by speaking up and speaking out against CRT, removing it from our schools.
Now, often on the conservative end, we call out the leftism and we say, well, just go to a private school or just start homeschooling your kids.
That's not an option that everybody has.
So right now our option is to fight back, and conservatives also offer the solution of school choice, which is something that we can get into at a later date.
But solutions have been offered for this.
But it takes your voices.
It takes you standing up.
It takes you doing something.
And Will and I talk about it every single day on our daily show, Will and I'm Alive.
You can check that out on YouTube and Facebook at PragerU.com.
And we try to talk about these issues to educate people and give you guys the armor to speak up and speak out against this sort of ideology.
It is going to take thousands and thousands and thousands of parents doing exactly what this dad did to truly make a change.
And if you need resources, Thank you, guys.

We'll see you in the next...

On top of the collapse of the commitment to free enterprise represented by the Democratic Party's full embrace of socialism and the passage of a full-on socialist budget by Bernie Sanders in the Senate, after already $4 trillion of spending over two years, it will mean $8 trillion of printed money.
I was feeling pretty low last night saying, my gosh, what have we done for 20 years?
What have we been fighting for for 40 years?
If we're just going to be a socialist, backwaters country that can't keep our commitments to people we fight for.
I began my life with the fall of southern Vietnam.
Helicopters on the embassy in Saigon.

It's a pure transfer of wealth.
It's taking the money you earn.
They're going to tax at death everything you've got.
They're going to not raise the basis.
Your houses, your farms, your businesses are going to take them away from your kids.
And tax them, make them sell them, take 45 to 55% of that, and put it into their plans to pay their buddies off in the teachers' unions.
And they're going to mask your kids, and they're going to ignore your demands of critical race theory be booted out.
And you know what?

This is Albert Moeller for townhall.com.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times has put forward a horrifyingly honest argument about abortion.
The headline it ran was this.
The right to an abortion means the right to have it for any reason.
They intend for abortion to be available for any reason, at any time, or for no reason.
Their focus was a law passed in 2017 by the legislature in Ohio, a law that seeks to prevent abortion on the grounds that the unborn baby has been diagnosed with Down syndrome.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times is saying that it is wrong to try to protect unborn babies that are diagnosed with Down syndrome by such a law.
Why is it wrong?
Because, says the editorial board, it interferes with what is a greater good than human dignity in the womb.
And that means a woman's absolute autonomy.
And what the paper claims is her constitutional right to destroy the life within her.
Like I said, this editorial is honest.
It's also horrifying.
I'm Albert Moeller.
This is really crucially important.
The lessons of the last 20 years is that we are peerless.
Our military, when it comes to the application of military force at the tactical or even operational level, has no match in the world, especially Operation Anaconda.

My favorite PragerU video.
My favorite five-minute PragerU video is by Larry Elder.
Okay.
And it's about how JFK would actually be a Republican today.
If he were around today.
I think it's an important video because it shows just how far the left has gone, how radical the left is when you have people like AOC and Bernie Sanders and looking at their leftist positions with everything wanting to be free and socialism and all of that versus what a real Democrat back in the 60s actually believed.
John F. Kennedy was...
John F. Kennedy was pro-life.
John F. Kennedy was against super high taxes.
You know, it's like John F. Kennedy would really be a Republican today, and I think that's a super cool concept to discuss.
Right, and it's something, it's interesting, and it's a point that our CEO, Marissa PragerU, makes all the time, is that while the left keeps shifting further and further left and getting more extreme, the right really hasn't changed.
Essentially, we're the middle ground.
We're standing by the values that this country was founded on, and we're not shifting further right.
We are not becoming more extreme.
We are the ones who stay stagnant in what we believe and are a stable ground to find when the left continues to move to more extreme ideologies.
Now, my favorite PragerU video is a PragerU video called The Cops Are The Good Guys, and it's featuring Sheriff David Clark.
And it's my favorite video because when I was transitioning from left to right and learning more about conservatism, that video really struck me.
One of the major things that I would have thought that I would never have changed my mind on was police.
I was dead set on the fact that police were systemically racist, that police departments were modern-day slave catchers, and I saw that video, and I saw Sheriff David Clark, who happens to be a black man, talk about how police are truly the good guys and what they go through, and that was able to change my mind.
That's a...
He always guest-hosted here.
That's amazing!
Wow!
Yeah, I'd love to meet him.
Sheriff David Clark, he's a man.
I met him.
I was there when we filmed that video, actually.
That was about three years ago when Sheriff David Clark came in to do that video, and I was there.
Amla has not been at PragerU nearly as long as me.
I've been there for about four years.
Amla for about four days.
Actually, I'm going on six months, Will.
Six months.
No, that's good.
That's good.
That's a very healthy relationship.
Six months, okay?
Ask anyone.
But yeah, that's another amazing video.
And that's what PragerU does.
I mean, PragerU distills huge ideas, things that everyone needs to know, and puts them in five-minute videos that anyone can understand.
That's something so cool about it.
When I was in college and becoming a conservative and researching stuff and finding things out about the world, it was PragerU videos that I binge-watched to find out so much.
And again, that was four and a half years ago when I started binge-watching PragerU videos.
Now our collection of videos is...
I mean, it's exponentially getting larger.
There are so many more and so many things to learn.
It is just a wealth of knowledge.
And Dennis Prager, being the founder and all of his wisdom within it, I mean, truly amazing stuff.
What has been amazing for me is actually getting behind the scenes and actually being able to see the five-minute video production and the script writing and all of that.
The stuff that sort of shaped my young mind as I was transitioning.
And it's got to be so cool for a young person to experience that.
So I do want to plug our program, and that is PragerForce.
If you're a high school student, college student, or a young professional below the age of 35 listening right now, you can sign up for a digital community of conservatives by going to PragerForce.com and signing up.
You could be opportunely really put on Will and I's show.
You could come to the office and see PragerU videos being filmed.
And we want to take a call really quickly, line two.
All right, let's take Darren from Grand Ledge.
Thank you.
Hello from Death Star Mask again.

You are our future.
I really appreciate that, Darren.
Thank you so much.

Tyson Foods Incorporated cannot increase prices for chicken and prepare foods fast enough to keep pace with rising costs for raw materials like grain due to Bidenflation.
Biden...

Say it with me.
Tyson increased their prices to their restaurant customers.
And you're thinking like, okay, so what?
I don't care if they increase it to their restaurant customers.
That's for people that are going out.
We're not going out to eat anymore.
It's not going to affect us.
Aha!
Aha!
Yes, it will.
As of September 5th, the retail prices are going to rise significantly for the consumers.

Can you say thank you, Biden?
Guys, I want to tell you, and I don't say this lightly, but make sure you stash some cash at home.
Make sure you stash a little more food at home than normal.
We're not getting away from inflation.
Not with this administration and the White House.
It's just not going to happen.
They are spending like crazy.
They're spending our money.
The CEO of Tyson Chicken said, and I quote, he said, we've seen unprecedented and accelerating inflation, and we're trying to catch up.
We're trying to catch up with that.
They can't even catch up with how fast inflation is occurring.
That means we're going to pay for it.

Now we're going to start with this call that is from Julius, like Caesar, in New Jersey.
Julius?
Hello?
What is up, my guy?
Anybody there?
Nationalists who have not been for the mask mandates because it would be against their adherence to survival of the fittest that they believed in.
And as for JFK, abortion wasn't an issue in the early 60s and the tax rates that he was for would still be too high for the GOP's case today.
Okay?
And as for the 80s economic boom, that had to do with the arms race.
And then that led to an economic meltdown, which Bush, old man Bush, had to deal with.
And he pretty much saved the legacy of Reaganomics by breaking his promise to not raise taxes.
Well, thank you, Julius.
Let me answer something that you just said about the economy.
What we have in America, since about the end of the Reagan era, is that wages in America have stagnated.
They've basically stagnated.
As more women and immigrants have gotten into the workforce, it has made labor less valuable.
It's not a bad thing that women and more legal immigrants are getting into the workforce.
Not illegal.
Legal immigrants are getting into the workforce.
Not a bad thing.
Okay?
But because of so many people in the workforce, labor now doesn't mean as much.
Okay?
So wages have stagnated.
But what we've had in America is that things like education, healthcare, and rent have all gone up.
Housing have all gone up in price.
Then we've had inflation right now, especially in this last year, just totally blow up.
So what we're seeing right now in America is a huge crisis because our government doesn't know how to stop spending money that is causing inflation and raising our national debt.
So yes, we have a lot of problems.
I didn't really...
Hear much of a question from you, Julie.
It's going to be honest of what I'm supposed to be answering right now.
But just in terms of some of the other economic things, I think there might have been a disagreement there about what has actually gone on and happened.
I recognize the voice from the last time we were on the radio show.
He was on the radio show last time?
Yes.
He did not like what we had to say last time either.
Was that about Chipotle?
Yes, it was.
Man, Julius, you've got to call back some other time.
Next time we're on, all right?
Let's take a call from JJ. From Columbus, Ohio.
Another person who apparently disagrees.
Hi!
Yeah, I don't even know where to start.
You guys are both too young to even know what you're talking about as far as oppression.
I'm 64 years old.
This country is not...
Did you say something?
No, keep going.
Okay, this country is not racist.
I will give you that.
But, the thing is, a lot of the people in it are.
So you can't give the country the bad rap.
It's the people in it.
And it's never going to change as long as people like yourselves keep whistling past it.
You throw up a couple of black men.
You say David Clark, for one.
And I assume that gentleman that you played the clip saying he wasn't oppressed is black, I guess.
I didn't see.
Yes, he was.
Anyway, you can't throw up one person and say, see, he's not oppressed, so there is no oppression.
That's just like me saying, oh, this white man is prejudiced, so that means all of you are.
So it is the same thing.
You cannot sit here and tell me there is no oppression in this country.
I've lived long enough to see it.
Not everywhere, no.
But it is there, it exists, and just like there are all cops are good people who have a lot of law enforcement in my family, but there are bad cops.
Thank you for your call, yes.
I hear exactly what you're saying, JJ. I know exactly what you're saying.
Yes, there is not a systemic There's no systemically oppressive network here in this country.
There's no systemic racism here in America.
Does that say that all racism is gone, that no racists exist?
Absolutely not.
There are certainly people who go out into the world each day and judge people solely based off their color.
But, conservatives are not advocating for those people.
What conservatives are advocating for is that we judge people based on the content of their character, based on their morals, based on their values, based on their education level, and most importantly, based on merit.
Now, what the left is doing is not only attributing racism to America as a society and as a country, but saying that in order to solve this issue of racism here, we need to focus on race, we need to view everybody through the lens of race, and we need to label others as oppressed and oppressors.
Now, that is clearly not the solution.
Obviously, the conservative mindset of judging people based on merit and select values is certainly more of a solution to the racism that still withstands in America, although on a very small level compared to the narrative That the left is pushing.
Yeah, I mean, look, you can have either, like, we talked about that we can't give these examples of our conservative black people, our token black people, as some people might say, and say, oh, there's no racism because of these people.
Well, it's like, you can't just say that America's this racist place and call us that we're too young to understand and say, oh, this is definitely the truth, okay?
Amla has grown up as a black woman in America.
My entire life.
In conservative white areas.
Right.
And not experience that racism that people want to talk about.
Listen, I get this racism out there.
No one is trying to say that there aren't any racist people out there, okay?
You go to the boonies of some southern state where no one really lives is probably some hicks who might be racist, okay?
That's not obviously the majority, but I'm sure there's some racist people out there, all right?
But to say that it is a problem in America that needs to be tackled and that the CDC has to come out, the CDC, okay, who's supposed to be handling the stuff about COVID, comes out and says that racism is a national pandemic.
I mean, what the hell is going on in this country when that is what we're professing?
Does racism exist?
Certainly.
So long as race exists, racism will exist.
Does racism exist on a systemic level?
Absolutely not.
And that is what we practice and preach at PragerU.
That's what we try to teach people.
We do so with our five-minute videos.

Now, when it comes to inflation, I want you to think of this.
This is an easy way for you to understand or to remember what inflation is if this is a topic that's somewhat new to you.
It's when too many dollars, so you have tons of money chasing too few goods.
There's not enough stuff to buy, in other words.
Or, think of Black Friday.
You know how all the stores try to get you in the stores during Christmas.
Thanksgiving, Christmas season, Black Friday.
You want to buy all this stuff.
And they always advertise this one laptop or this one television set that's going to be sitting right smack in the middle of the department store.
And they only have X amount.
Before they're absolutely gone.
And obviously their trick is to get you in the store so you can buy other stuff.
If you're in California, it's so you can shoplift other stuff.
But in other places around the nation, it's so you can buy other stuff.
So you walk into this store, you get into, or, well, you don't walk in on Black Friday.
You bum rush that store.
Are you set in line?
You have the money.
In your hands.
You're ready to go.
You've got all of this cash.
You've been saving.
And you're just ready to go.
You're like, I'm going to get my Christmas shopping done today.
You pull up.
You see the line.
And you're like, wow.
Everybody else, the 200 people standing in line in front of me, have the same amount of money or cash that I do.
But there's only 32 of those televisions.
Essentially, that's inflation.
The institutions, the AEIs, to double down and to send even more troops to Afghanistan.
Well, look, Mitt Romney got out there.
That's fine.
Why don't you send one of his 72 sons, none of whom served in the military?
I am sick of them squandering not only our treasure but our blood.
On useless, poorly thought out military campaigns.
I was all for going in Afghanistan and wreaking unholy vengeance on the people who murdered Americans.
But then what happened, Dr. Gorka?
a complete strategic kale chase for 20 years.

Hello, everybody. everybody.
Will Witt here, joined with Amala Penobi.
PragerU personalities.
PragerU young people.
PragerU restoring hope to the next generation.
That's what we are.
That's what we do.
Through humor, through insight, through different information than you guys might have heard before.
We are a little bit younger than Dennis, and we have a lot of things we're talking about today.
I hope you guys have enjoyed the show so far.
One thing that we do on our show...
On Will and Amala Live, which is our show on PragerU, is every Thursday we do what we call a hashtag throwback Thursday segment, where one of us takes either a historical person or event or a certain thing, and then we talk about it and relate it back to America.
And one that I've been focused on recently is Frederick Douglass.
You guys know Frederick Douglass, who was the intellectual, the author, who was a slave and then became free and was this amazing, smart guy.
And one thing about Frederick Douglass that I think is so important is that people all around him, white people and people in the North and people in the South, too, had these expectations for him that said, you can't be this intellectual.
You can't be this smart guy because of where you came from, because you were a slave or because you were black or whatever else.
And he totally surpassed all of their expectations and made an amazing life for himself and did amazing things that inspired tons and tons of people.
I mean, what an amazing guy.
And this is like something now is people talking about you have African-Americans and women and other progressives and leftists in America talking about how oppressed they are.
And it's like Frederick Douglass during that time was someone who would actually be oppressed.
And what did he do?
He didn't take no for an answer.
He rose to the occasion and he strived to be this intellectual who would help people and be a warrior.
So you can go on and you can be this leftist person, like maybe somewhat like the person who we talked about before complaining about racism.
You can be that person and complain about all these institutions and things that are against you.
Or you can be someone who is like a Frederick Douglass and say, I don't care what all of these people think about me.
I know what is right.
I know what is true.
And I am going to push for the things that I believe in regardless.
Right.
Certainly with how cushy we have it today, people would be able to withstand whatever oppressive factors that they're talking about when comparing to these historical figures who managed to make it through unimaginable oppression in their day and age.
And all it takes is for you to say, I'm not going to let the words of one person or a few people bring me down.
I know that my intellect goes farther than that.
I know that my morals and my merit goes farther than that.
And I'm going to make sure that the world knows that.
That's what Will and I do.
That's what everybody at PragerU does.
That's what we try to talk about in our videos.
And Will and I, again, we have a live show.
We talk every day about these sort of factors and about the oppressive narrative that the left is trying to sell you on.
Do not fall for it.
It will only go to inhibit your own success and your own climb up the ladder that is life.
So if you want to support us here at PragerU, you can go to prageru.com slash donate and you can watch our videos.
Go to watch.
Thank you guys so much for listening.
We'll be back in the next segment.
I actually think that.
Here at Salem Media Group, we're delighted to welcome you back to your old habits and haunts.
Nice to see you at our restaurants.
We've been waiting a long time for you to return.
Nice to see you at the salon, the post office, the flower shop.
Nice to see you back in the office.
Nice to see all those cars on the freeway again.
Yay!
Hello, Bedford Falls!
For over a year, America has been fighting to get back to normal.
This Salem radio station has been fighting right alongside you.
Now we're back.
You're back.
It feels so good.
Welcome back to the real world.
On top of the collapse...
Of the commitment to free enterprise represented by the Democratic Party's full embrace of socialism and the passage of a full-on socialist budget by Bernie Sanders in the Senate after already $4 trillion of spending over two years.
It will mean $8 trillion of printed money.
I was feeling pretty low last night saying, my gosh, what have we done for 20 years?
What have we been fighting for for 40 years if we're just going to be a socialist?
Backwaters country that can't keep our commitments to people we fight for.
I began my life with the fall of southern Vietnam.
Helicopters on the embassy in Saigon.
I went to college.
I was a sophomore in college when that happened, 1975. And here we are.
Kabul will look that way within 30 days.
You just realize there's a 1994 out there somewhere.
There's a 1980 out there somewhere.
Indeed, I think we're going to wipe out the Democrats.
This country does not want to be a socialist country.
And the Democrats are socialists.
All of them.
They all voted for it.
Now it's going to go to the House.
It's a pure transfer of wealth.
It's taking the money you earn.
They're going to tax at death everything you've got.
They're going to not raise the basis.
Your houses, your farms, your businesses are going to take them away from your kids and tax them, make them sell them.
Take 45 to 55 percent of that and put it into their plans to pay their buddies off in the teachers' unions.
And they're going to mask your kids, and they're going to ignore your demands of critical race theory be booted out.
And you know what?
Time to rise and fight again.

The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times has put forward a horrifyingly honest argument about abortion.
The headline it ran was this.
The right to an abortion means the right to have it for any reason.
They intend for abortion to be available for any reason, at any time, or for no reason.
Their focus was a law passed in 2017 by the legislature in Ohio, a law that seeks to prevent abortion on the grounds that the unborn baby has been diagnosed with Down syndrome.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times is saying that it is wrong to try to protect unborn babies that are diagnosed with Down syndrome by such a law.
Why is it wrong?
Because, says the editorial board, it interferes with what is a greater good than human dignity in the womb.
And that means a woman's absolute autonomy.
And what the paper claims is her constitutional right to destroy the life within her.
Like I said, this editorial is honest.
It's also horrifying.
I'm Albert Moeller.
Publicpolicy.pepperdine.edu Trending now on America First with Sebastian Birka This is really crucially important.
The lessons of the last 20 years is that we are peerless.
Our military, when it comes to the application of military force at the tactical or even operational level, has no match in the world, especially Operation Anaconda.
The October 2001 operation, when we went in there with just a couple of hundred CIA paramilitaries and guys from Delta and from Bragg, and we leveraged 21,000 members of the Northern Alliance and we took down the Taliban government, that was textbook.
Nobody, not even Julius Caesar, not Napoleon could do it better.
But since then, at the strategic level, Kurt, it's been a disaster.
It's been an utter disaster.
And frankly, I'm worried about the tactical level.
I'm worried that whether or not we still maintain the tactical capabilities...
That we need for high-intensity combat operations against peer-level competitors like the Chinese.
Especially, and I write about this in my Monday Town Hall column, Dr. Gorka, especially when you look at the Navy.
For nearly 70 years, it has glided on the legacy of...
The military triumphs in the Pacific Theater over the Japanese.
And we relied on, we consoled ourselves, saying, well, you know, the Chinese technology is getting better.
They're getting more and more ships.
But we have a naval tradition.
You know what?
So did the Carthaginians.
Okay?
The Romans had no navy until they found a Carthaginian warship that had run aground.
They copied it.
They trained and they beat the hell out of Carthage.
You can find Rome in ruins.
Can't find any Carthaginian ruins.

Tyson Foods Incorporated cannot increase prices for chicken and prepare foods fast enough to keep pace with rising costs for raw materials like grain due to Bidenflation.
Bidenflation.
Say it with me.
Tyson increased their prices.
To their restaurant customers.
And you're thinking like, okay, so what?
I don't care if they increase it to their restaurant customers.
That's for people that are going out.
We're not going out to eat anymore.
It's not going to affect us.
Yes, it will.
As of September 5th, the retail prices are going to rise significantly for the consumers.
Can you say thank you, Biden?
Can you say thank you, Biden?
Guys, I want to tell you, and I don't say this lightly, but make sure you stash some cash at home.
Make sure you stash a little more food at home than normal.
We're not getting away from inflation.
Not with this administration and the White House.

During the break, we were just listening to the president talking right now and answering questions about the Afghanistan situation.
He's talking about getting out of Afghanistan.
And trying to rationalize the things that he did.
We could check in with it live for a second.
Yeah, let's put it on.
I think the last 24 hours that there was a descent cable from the State Department saying that the Taliban would come faster through Afghanistan.
Can you say why after that cable was issued the U.S. didn't do more?
What an interesting answer to that little question.
Tell me why you ignored this cable, Mr. President.
We have all sorts of cables.
Come on, man!
Come on, man!
The Afghanis, they touch my leg hair.
600 billion cables!
Chocolate chip ice cream!
Listen, there was a recent poll that came out that said, I forget who the poll was by, but it was a good source, is 70% of Americans agree that we should be out of Afghanistan, okay?
In the next 20 years, who knows what's going to happen, right?
Do we have to stay there for another 20 years to figure this out?
Would the same situation have happened five years ago?
The problem that most Americans have is not with the leaving of Afghanistan.
The problem is how we did it.
We left Afghanistan, did a botched exit, where essentially we left American citizens there.
American citizens there before we took everyone out.
What are we doing?
Right, and we had the capacity and the intelligence to know exactly how this was going to play out.
They knew exactly how this was going to go and simply ignored all of the incessant warnings from their intelligence department.
It's horrible, and look at what is happening at the airport right now, at the airport in Afghanistan where people are, there's gunshots and people are scared for their lives, and I've seen that French and UK troops are getting their citizens out, whereas troops in the US are still at the airport worrying.
I mean, some of these Afghani citizens, they're getting flown around on these jets and there's tons of them that are like 9 out of 10 from what it looked like in the pictures who are fighting age men who are leaving their country.
And then we still have our own citizens that are still left in Afghanistan, but we're taking the refugees out first.
What is happening?
Why are we not getting American citizens out of Afghanistan before Afghani?
It is a crazy and sad situation to watch play out and it's super unfortunate that all of this happened with all of the prerequisites to success that we had in our intelligence.
It's very, very sad.
I hope that something can be done about it because this is a situation that for me as an American Someone who has grown up in a country for the last 24 years that has seen us be involved in the Middle East, seen us be involved around the world with other conflicts and other things going on, to then see this be so messed up is detrimental to, I think, a lot of other countries' position as America's power on the world stage.
I feel like a country like China looks at this and what this is and says, wow, America is not nearly as strong or as capable with their intelligence.
Strength of what they used to be in years past.
Especially with the promises that we made to those people.
And when I think about it in regard to our age, I'm 21, Will's 24, I think about the Afghani people, the young women and children who are of our age or younger than us, who have never known anything than an Afghanistan with an American presence and are now going to live in a Taliban-controlled country where they have no rights and no freedom and are completely occupied by an evil, tyrannical regime.
So it's always something that I like to keep in mind, and it's gratitude.
It's gratitude for being in America.
It's gratitude for waking up here every day.
And it is particularly sad to have American citizens who live here, who were born here, talk so badly about this country and about how oppressive their lives are when we see these absolute horrors happening on the other end of the world.
If you want to see real oppression, go to Afghanistan.
Right.
Just for two seconds.
Some of these people who disagree with us who call this show or people on our comments on our show who say that they're so oppressed, go to Afghanistan.
And I don't want to say that because people are being oppressed in Afghanistan that you can't be oppressed in America because there are things in America that are happening that are bad.
But the things that the left complains about, the patriarchy, racism, pay gap, all these kinds of things, go to Afghanistan or a place in the Middle East or go to Somalia and see that they're mutilating the genitals of females.
Right.
Go to a country where you have absolutely no freedom to even speak about how oppressed you are.
Go to somewhere like North Korea where you are born into a dictatorship regime to where you can't even fathom the term oppression.
You don't even know what the term oppression means and you don't even know that you're oppressed because it's all that you've ever known and you know nothing outside of that country.
In America, you are applauded for being oppressed.
Do you understand that?
People who are listening...
In America, if you come out and say, I am oppressed, and I am weak, and a victim, what do people do?
They clap.
They clap.
They cheer.
Oppression is currency in the United States of America.
Exactly.
The more intersectional you are, the more oppressed you are, the more that people will clap for you.
How crazy is that?
And then to think that they are oppressed when people are clapping for their oppression.
You get awards.
You get scholarships.
You get certain special privileges for being part of this oppressed class and announcing that you are so oppressed.
You get more than someone who says, I am an individual.
I am not a victim.
It's a career path in America to be an activist.
You can go to college, you can study, and you don't even have to.
I didn't go to college, and I was paid an exorbitant amount of money to talk about how oppressed I was, and then to travel around to different middle schools and high schools, find young kids who are already disillusioned, and then convince them of their own oppression.
That is a paid job here in America.
So use that to think of the scope of how oppressed you are in this nation.
How much do you get paid?
I'm not going to state that out loud.
I can say that I was paid more than any 17-year-old girl should ever be making in America, and paid by some unsavory characters, the likes of George Soros.
So, and when I traveled around to these different high schools and middle schools and we got kids who wanted to be activists, guess what we did for them?
We paid them!
They joined a fellowship program, they worked with us over the summer, and at the end of it, they got $500 for doing it.
So, not only do we encourage people to believe their own oppression, we encourage them to get out and to speak to other people about it, to yell and scream about it.
We cheer them on and we pay them.
Wow.
When I was in college doing campus stuff and talking to people, I never got paid.
I was just as broke.
I still had to keep my job at the pizza shop I was working at.
And then when I quit there, I had to go work as a server.
And I had to do that the whole time while I was trying to do my political stuff.
That's surprising.
I didn't know that they would pay these young people to do that.
You have to think about this, and this is what I'll say to anybody who's listening right now.
When you see these protests that happen in America that are all over the streets and everybody's screaming and there's signs and people are talking about how oppressed they are, remember that those signs are paid for.
Remember that those organizers are paid for.
Remember that a lot of those people who are out there in the street protesting are paid to be there and encouraged to be there.
And it is very easy to convince somebody of their own oppression.
It is very difficult to convince somebody that they aren't oppressed.
It is very difficult to convince somebody that they are a victor and that they are only victim to their own choices.
It is a much easier sell to be a leftist than it is to be a conservative.
And that's why we're here.
That's why we are two young people trying to convince other young people to come to our side.
Because I can promise you it's a lot more fulfilling and you'll feel a lot better about your place in the world.
Yeah, wouldn't you rather be friends with Amla and I than Greta Thunberg?
We're way more fun.
If your answer is no, don't tell us.
Yeah, don't tell us.
But if you want to tell us something, call in.
1-8-Prager-776.
That's 1-8-Prager-776.
And I want to take this question real quick in response to one that we talked about earlier.
This is from Houston from Phoenix, Arizona.
Hi.
Hey.
How's it going, guys?
I just wanted to say that our institutions are completely compromised.
Our governments compromised.
Our militaries compromised.
How are we supposed to be, you know, the world leaders when we're worried about critical race theory?
And, I mean, it seems that we're already taking over.
And the parallels between now and what's going on now in Nazi Germany are just unbelievable.
And we're on a very dangerous road.
And if our younger generation, my generation, and the one below me does not wake up to this, we're going to lose this country.
And we're going to be slaves to the system.
100%.
That's exactly right.
Thank you so much for calling.
And it's true.
When I use that reference, if you guys have been listening earlier in the show, that in the 1930s, no medical institution barely and barely any doctors actually went against the Third Reich in that country when Nazis were coming to power, and then they joined the Nazis, right?
And that is a consensus, quote-unquote, of the experts, quote-unquote, right, who wouldn't have joined this.
And then people say, no, you can't say that.
You can't say...
Like, okay, listen, we're not having these Jews and people in America be mass killed or anything like that right now.
Okay, but what you do have, what you do have is things that happen in totalitarian regimes that we are seeing take place in America today.
Censorship, people not being able to speak their minds along all the propaganda, vaccine passports, all these kind of things.
So if you want to know how to fight back against all these things, you need to go to PragerU.com because PragerU has the answers for you.
Okay, PragerU gives you the answers so you can fight back against the powers that be and change people's minds.
We'll be right back after the break, everyone.

Now, our president, Biden, just finished addressing the press in regard to his botched pullout from Afghanistan.
Let's take a listen to this clip.
Ooh!
It'll be a very different story.
A very different story.
Come on, guys.
Come on, Taliban.
But what an unexpected response from the press.
This is not anything that I've seen in regard to Biden since he was elected.
No, I think that this has really been a defining moment of people saying, all right, look.
We're going to be on the left and we're going to defend all these leftists as much as we can because we're the mainstream media and we're all bought out.
But eventually, things get to a point where it gets so bad and you're like, alright, we've got to find someone else to take this mantle and actually get this done because this is a...
Disaster.
And sometimes on the conservative side, you can get really emboldened to say that there's no hope for what we're going to do because the truth is not going to come out.
But this is an instance where the truth could not be hidden.
The complete mischievery and falsehood of everything that was happening in Afghanistan and how poorly we handled the situation is truth and everybody seems to have found it.
Oh, yeah.
And I mean, talking about trusting the Taliban, why are you trusting the Taliban?
I don't get it.
But one thing that I do have to agree with Biden on is wishing that the people of Afghanistan, the fighting-age men, did more when the Taliban were taking over.
You know, we trained them for 20 years.
We gave $80 billion for this to happen.
I wish that the fighting-age men in Afghanistan would have done more to stand up for their country.
It's sad to see that they were not able to do it.
I have a little bit of a descending opinion when it comes to that, but we won't get too deep into it because I feel like it'll take up the majority of this segment.
Wow, what a response from the press.
What a response.
It's just crazy to hear.
What we wanted to talk about in this hour, aside from the Afghanistan stuff, was the importance of families.
That's something that...
Amla and I grew up in strange households that were definitely different than most people.
I grew up without my father in the picture.
He was not there when I was growing up, and so my mother was really the woman to raise me and teach me masculine values, which somehow she did it.
And Amla had a different situation as well.
Yeah, I was raised by a single mother of three, so we both shared the strong influence from our mothers, but my influence was mainly political, although my mother is very strong-willed and I seem to have adopted that from her as well.
Yeah, but it's good.
I mean, it's good.
My mother is...
She would get mad at me for absolutely everything.
I got grounded all of the time, even for small things.
She would come home and I didn't...
I love sandwiches, okay?
Just giving you guys some backstory.
I love sandwiches, and I love toast.
So I would toast the bread for the sandwiches, and I would leave crumbs on the table sometimes.
You know, I'd try to clean them up, but maybe there's a couple crumbs.
And she would come home, and she would scream, My name.
And then I'd come down, there's two crumbs on the table, and then she'd ground me.
For leaving any sort of mess at all out.
And this happened all of the time.
And then for other things as well.
My mom was pretty hard on me growing up.
But now, looking back, I realize that was a really good thing.
Because it made me...
Like, understand what authority meant, respecting your elders, knowing that if you're going to do something, you do it right the first time and not have to be asked to do it again.
No sense of entitlement in myself.
I don't feel like I deserve these things.
And a lot of the young people nowadays do not have those same types of values.
Like, when I went to college and I thought I was a leftist, and then I heard about conservative ideas, and more not even just the politics of conservatism, but the morals and principles of conservatism, I was like, this is common sense.
These are things that my mom taught me about the world.
That I am just now realizing actually go with conservatism.
They don't go with leftism.
Right.
Mine was the opposite.
I was like, oh, this is stuff I've never heard before in my life.
My mom taught me the exact opposite.
But it's not only that kids...
People our age don't want to teach these values to their children.
They don't even want to have children.
And that's a sad reality, and it's a stark reality that we're facing right now in America, that a large portion of young people are not in the business of making families.
They don't want children.
And they're being convinced by the political left that that is the better option.
That's the more fulfilling option, is to not have children in this country.
Yeah, but in getting married and having children, your life will get exponentially better.
Yep.
Okay, I'm sure there are a few of you listening right now who will say, oh, well, I'm a 45-year-old aunt and I love drinking wine.
My life's way better off without any sort of children, you know, live, laugh, wine.
And I'm like, okay.
You want to live your life like that?
That's fine.
You can do that.
No one is forcing you to get married and have children.
But overall, statistically, your life will be better and the American population will be better off when people go into pairs and get married and have children.
You are happier.
You smoke and drink less.
Men actually make more money.
You volunteer in the community more when you're married.
I mean, these are all very good things.
And it's a backbone that you are having in America when you have a family.
Something you can fall back on.
It is a great thing to do, but the left perverts it.
And says, you don't need to have this.
And one thing, just call.
If you want to talk to us about this or anything else, call 1-8-Prager-776.

I'm totally fine with women specifically saying, you know, I want to focus on myself.
I want to focus on my career.
I don't want to have children.
Sure.
That is your own prerogative.
You can do that.
But to sell the narrative that that is somehow better or more fulfilling or is going to bring you more happiness than going on and creating a strong family bond, you know, the strongest unit Yeah,
that's exactly right.
No, Amla, I would love to hear.
How I can be a full woman if you would be able to teach me.
Well, the left will teach you that.
That's not going to be something that I'll be able to teach you.
I started growing a mustache just for, you know, this moment.
Yeah.
Figure it out.
Guys, if you want to know more about families and how to actually change people's minds on it, in my book, How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies, which is available for pre-order right now on Amazon, you can look up the book, How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies, or just Will Witt on Amazon.
You can find the book, and it has a whole chapter dedicated to family and family values about how important it is that you can influence people on it.
And even more information at PragerU.com, where you can get information on all of the right morality and the right things of how we make a productive society.
I mean, you guys know Dennis Prager's got his male and female hour, his happiness hour, where he talks about this kind of stuff.

Remember, I said they're going to borrow and spend a lot of money.
Now, you know, when the tax increases come up, this is going to be to borrow and spend enormous amounts of money, force inflation up without addressing.
Even the safety net needs.
Forget about defense, which they're not spending any money on either, right?
Right.
And then it's ushering in chaos, a sort of left-wing-flavored chaos.
And I think it's because they don't have the votes and they don't really have the plan to do anything else.
Now, you know Joe Biden and you know Bernie Sanders.
Is Joe Biden in charge of this?
Or has Bernie Sanders just been deferred to?
Yeah, I think this is sort of policy by default.
What is it we can do that we can tell the activist base they should like?
I don't think at the end of the day they're going to be satisfied either, and then we'll do that.
I kind of think that's what's happening.
I say I'm not trying to, because I don't see any other logic behind it.
I mean, again, there are basic needs that need to be addressed.
In the social safety net.
There's a whole lot of things that need to be done.
And then I look at the tax increases.
You're right about the death tax that's going to slam.
I chaired the Small Business Committee for four years.
All it does is make small businesses and farms impossible to pass on the next generation.

Tucker, you mentioned early here that the country just as a population has nearly tripled since you started in journalism.
Can you talk about that?
Could you make that point?
So profoundly earlier that, hey, this country has nearly tripled in size, yet we have like a fraction of the freedom.
How did that happen?
Well, one is a product of the other.
I mean, big systems don't work very well.
Ask anybody who served in the U.S. Army.
You know, every veteran, Vietnam-era veteran, for example, you go over to Vietnam, you fight a ridiculous war, you see people die, you come back, and you still love America.
I've never met.
anyone who served in the military, including my own dad during that time, who doesn't love America, truly love America.
But if they're on, you know.
Hello, everybody. everybody.
We're your stand-in host.
I'm Levinovian Wilwitt from Prager University.
And we're going to be taking calls in the next segment.
So give us a call, especially if you disagree with us.
1-8 Prager-776.
Again, that's 1-8 Prager-776.
Now we want to get to a story that we covered this week.
And this is out of Pew Research Center.
They put out a poll with American citizens.
And it came back that roughly half of U.S. adults, 48%, now say that the government should take steps to restrict false information online.
Even if it means losing some freedom to access and public content.
Now, this is up in 2018. They did this very same survey, and only 39% of U.S. adults said that.
Now we're at nearly 50. Half of Americans would give up their freedom so that they don't have to see conservative misinformation on their Facebook page.
How wild is that?
Right, and the important part is who, when it comes to false information, we know that there's plenty of perfectly correct information that's being censored under the guise of false information.
Who gets to dictate what is labeled as misinformation or false information?
Yeah, listen, I did a video where I went out and asked people about hate speech, and where was I? Playa Vista.
I went to Playa Vista, California, and asked people about hate speech.
And what they said is like, yes, hate speech shouldn't be allowed because it might hurt someone's feelings.
And I'm like, well then, your answer to that question that I just asked, I consider that hate speech.
I thought that was pretty hateful.
I don't think you should be allowed to have that answer.
And they said, what?
I'm like, do you understand that when you put hate speech as not the same thing as free speech, then it's just up to someone else to dictate what is and what isn't hate speech or free speech?
It makes it so that the elites and the oligarchy and the people on top are the ones who get to dictate what is free speech.
You should be able to say whatever you want as long as it's not threatening or violent towards someone else.
And it's sad that we're headed in that direction where things like hate speech, things that might be construed as offensive are going to be completely taken off the market of language and what we're able to say.
And certainly that is not what our founding fathers had in mind.
And again, I go back to this very same sentiment.
It's because we've forgotten what our founding fathers have in mind and we've labeled them as racist white supremacists that nobody should listen to, that we've completely lost what our country is founded on.
And when you lose that, you lose respect for your own individual freedom.
So it is no surprise to me that half of U.S. adults want to vote and to take away their freedom and give it to the government.
It's not surprising at all.
You see the likes of what Arnold Schwarzenegger now, Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon going on a public forum, going on the news and saying, well, who cares about freedom?
I don't even get what you're saying when you use the argument of freedom.
They don't understand.
People no longer understand what it even means to be free.
Screw your freedom.
We all need your freedom.
That's an Arnold Schwarzenegger accent.
I hope you guys enjoyed that.
Yeah, no, but it's crazy.
But the big tech companies that claim to say that they are the pinnacles of freedom and the pinnacles of free speech, what do they do?
They go on and they're interfering in other countries' elections and censoring speech in other countries with their elections.
Mark Zuckerberg doing this.
And what else do they do?
In 2016, you had all these...
Big tech companies like Facebook taking your data and then selling it to Cambria Analytical.
So it's like these companies that claim to have your best interests at heart that are saying that, oh, we're really here to protect your freedom of speech.
They are not.
They do not care about you.
They don't care about your freedom of speech.
And until people realize that, then nothing is going to change.
Right, but we are the fascists, right, Will?
Aren't we the fascists?
Oh, yeah, of course.
Makes total sense.
And this is what comes along with the semantic.
You know, magic of the left is that they use words that truly mean something like Nazi and fascist and they mischaracterize them and they use it to label conservatives.
So now those words have no meaning.
So when true fascism starts to creep into our society, when true Nazism starts to creep into our society, like we're seeing now with the vaccine mandates and your vaccine passports, when true fascism happens, like we're seeing with the censorship that we experience on a day-to-day basis, you call it out and nothing.
Nothing happens.
It falls on deaf ears because people no longer know what those words mean.
Look what just happened in Australia.
This one's wild to me.
A man is being sentenced to probably eight months in prison for trying to organize a protest.
Against all of the crazy stuff that's happening in, I believe it was Melbourne, where all of this stuff is happening.
Dude, my face, eight months in prison.
This was an elderly man.
How crazy is that?
And they took all the Australians' guns.
I mean, that's what they did.
They did a buyback there.
So it sucks that they don't have the same rights that we have here in America.
But these things happen so fast.
A year ago, nobody would have thought that anything like this would ever happen.
Excuse me, ever would happen in Australia or anywhere else in the world.
And now, look, we were called conspiracy theorists for saying that any of these types of things might be happening.
That we might lose our free speech.
That we might lose our Seventh Amendment.
That we might lose due process and private property.
All of these things.
And now...
We were right.
And it's because so many people have tried to warn us about it, and they too have been censored.

This is Albert Moeller for townhall.com.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times has put forward a horrifyingly honest argument about abortion.
The headline it ran was this.
The right to an abortion means the right to have it for any reason.
They intend for abortion to be available for any reason, at any time, or for no reason.
Their focus was a law passed in 2017 by the legislature in Ohio, a law that seeks to prevent abortion on the grounds that the unborn baby has been diagnosed with Down syndrome.
The editorial board of the Los Angeles Times is saying that it is wrong to try to protect unborn babies that are diagnosed with Down syndrome by such a law.
Why is it wrong?
Because, says the editorial board, it interferes with what is a greater good than human dignity in the womb.
And that means a woman's absolute autonomy.
And what the paper claims is her constitutional right to destroy the life within her.
Like I said, this editorial is honest.
It's also horrifying.

This is really crucially important.
The lessons of the last 20 years is that we are peerless.
Our military, when it comes to the application of military force at the tactical or even operational level...
It has no match in the world, especially Operation Anaconda.
The October 2001 operation, when we went in there with just a couple of hundred CIA paramilitaries and guys from Delta and from Bragg, and we leveraged 21,000 members of the Northern Alliance, and we took down the Taliban government, that was textbook.
Nobody, not even Julius Caesar, not Napoleon, could do it better.
But since then, at the strategic level, Kurt, it's been a disaster.
It's been an utter disaster, and frankly, I'm worried about the tactical level.
I'm worried that whether or not we still maintain the tactical capabilities that we need for high-intensity combat operations against peer-level competitors like the Chinese.
Especially, and I write about this in my Monday Town Hall column, Dr. Gorka, especially when you look at the Navy.
For nearly 70 years, it has glided on the legacy of...
The military triumphs in the Pacific Theater over the Japanese.
And we relied on, we consoled ourselves, saying, well, you know, the Chinese technology's getting better, they're getting more and more ships, but we have a naval tradition.
You know what?
So did the Carthaginians.
Okay?
The Romans had no navy until they found a Carthaginian warship that had run aground, they copied it, they trained, and they beat the hell out of Carthaginians.
You can find Roman ruins.
Can't find any Carthaginian ruins.

Now, this has been something that has always been important in America.
Our founding fathers knew it.

And tyranny is at our doorstep right now.
We have a lot of states and a lot of cities across the United States that are pushing for vaccination passports, and we want to speak out against that.

That's noon at Tongva Park, I believe it was called.
It's called T-O-N-G-V-A Park at noon tomorrow.
All right, let's take one of these calls.
Let's get into Tom from Glendora, California.
You've been hanging on the line a long time.
Let's give you one, Tom.
Hi, Tom.
Hello there, Amala and Will.
Thank you so much for putting me on.
I'll try to be brief with two quick comments.
Sure.
Number one, you two are an amazing dynamic dynamite duo.
Good, young, Christian folks.
You're great, brilliant defenders of the republic.
You're Christian patriots.
You're a breath of fresh air.
And you're defending the greatest nation on God's green earth in history in a time of grave, grave peril.
You're such a breath of fresh air that I'm an old beat-up.
76-year-old geezer, asthmatic.
I can throw away my inhaler to open my lungs and listen to you guys.
Thank you so much!
Oh, that's so kind.
Comment number two, if I might.
This is the most important.
Will, you're great.
Amela's great.
But what really makes my day, and I'm not, I'm only half kidding, is Amela's sweet, infectious, kind, ebullient laugh.
It's like a shot of adrenaline.
I love you guys.
God bless you.
May we save this country.
God bless you, Tom.
Thank you.
You know, contrary to popular belief, I actually have a really good laugh, too.
Just letting people know that my laugh sounds pretty good, too.
Will does have a good laugh.
Thank you so much.
That really made my entire, I don't know, my entire year.
Oh, gosh.
That was very sweet.
It's one thing, like, you know, we get lots of views on our videos.
Not trying to brag.
That's just how it is.
PragerU has about 5 billion views.
Amla and I get lots of views on our videos.
And just the other day, we had someone send us some books and send me a 12-page letter, actually.
I'm not going to expose this person or anything.
But just telling me about...
You know, their life and how much the things that I make mean.
It's like we don't understand.
You can't quantify what these things mean when you're just looking at numbers.
Until I get to actually go to events and speak places and talk to you guys or meet you out or whatever it is, it is impossible for me to quantify the good work that Prager, you, myself, and Amala are doing.
So to have you guys call in and do that, I know it seems it can be kind of corny, whatever, but it's so nice because it's calls like that that keep me going.
Knowing that, okay, I can do this.
We have people who actually do support us.
It's not just the haters that I see on Twitter every day.
Right, it's really a pleasure.
Thank you so much, Tom, and everybody who supports us.
All right, let's take another call.
Let's take Roscoe in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Hi!
Hey there, I just wanted to say I agree with you guys on one thing you were saying about building stronger families.
I mean, I have black and Latino friends.
I'm black myself.
My black and Latino friends complain about not having enough political representation, and I tell them the only way we're going to have more political representation is if we have more black and Latino people.
And so the only way to do that is build strong families.
I also have a question for you.
The biggest problem with the right seems to be racism or the perception of racism.
And so why don't national leaders on the right come out and say, Black and Latino people to have voting rights, justice, power, and resources, then we don't want you in our party.
We don't want your vote.
Why don't they just come out and say that and take a strong stand against racism?
I know the answer why they won't do it, because they'll lose the South and never be able to win national elections again.
But why don't they take a moral stand and do that?
I appreciate that, Roscoe.
Thank you for the call.
And I have to first say that I disagree with you.
I think there are lots of people who are conservatives who are coming out, myself, Amala, Dennis Prager, lots of the good guys like Charlie Kirk, who are coming out and saying, you know, racism has no place here.
We have no need for racism in America today.
We are the ones fighting against the left at every turn.
I mean, and saying that we think we would lose the South, I mean...
I'm doing a national speaking tour for my book.
These types of ideas are at the prominence of my mindset and the things that I talk about, about anti-racist stuff.
I'm going to Ole Miss and speaking about my book and other places in the South.
I don't think that conservatives in the South are so worried.
I think that's an old-school talking point that the left has given people and said, oh, conservatives in the South, they're all racist and rednecks and horrible.
But it's just not true anymore.
And one of the main fighters in this nation against CRT and that sort of racist ideology is the South.
and they're the ones who are being the arbiters of truth and saying, no, I think it should be a meritocracy here in this nation, it shouldn't be based on race.
But the South does get characterized as that sort of racist belt of the United States.
But I like the point that you made about black and Latino people building strong families And if you really look into the history of the left and their politics, they are fervently against black and Latino people building strong families.
Look at their strong endorsement of pro-choice legislation, which we know disproportionately affects black and Latino families here in America.
We have cities like New York City where more black children That is exactly right.
Amala, you say things so well.
Much better than anyone else.
And because she says things so well, it means that you need to find out more of the things that she says by going to PragerU.com.

Now, when it comes to inflation, I want you to think of this.
This is an easy way for you to understand or to remember what inflation is if this is a topic that's somewhat new to you.
It's when too many dollars, so you have tons of money, chasing too few goods.
There's not enough stuff to buy, in other words.
Or, think of Black Friday.
You know how all the stores try to get you in the stores during Christmas.
Thanksgiving, Christmas season, Black Friday.
You want to buy all this stuff.
And they always advertise this one laptop or this one television set that's going to be sitting right smack in the middle of the department store.
And they only have...
X amount before they're absolutely gone.
And obviously their trick is to get you in the store so you can buy other stuff if you're in California, so you can shoplift other stuff.
But in other places around the nation, it's so you can buy other stuff.
So you walk into this store, you get into...
Well, you don't walk in on Black Friday.
You bum rush that store.
Are you set in line?
You have the money in your hands.
You're ready to go.
You've got all of this cash.
You've been saving.
And you're just ready to go.
You're like, I'm going to get my Christmas shopping done today.
You pull up.
You see the line.
And you're like, wow.
Everybody else, the 200 people standing in line in front of me, The same amount of money or cash that I do, but there's only 32 of those televisions.
Essentially, that's inflation.
I got to get your response to those neocons, neoliberals who are now trying to convince us, the Brookings institutions, the AEIs, to double down and to send even more troops to Afghanistan.

I am sick of them squandering not only our treasure, but our blood.

Will Witt here from PragerU with Amla Epinobi and And wow, this is our last segment.
Are you sad?
I'm very sad.
I am sad too.
I love doing Dennis' radio show.
I hope that you all will welcome us back.
But we're going to finish off this last segment with a bang.
And this last segment we're calling How to Be a Hero.
One thing I have to mention about being a hero, you're a hero if you pre-order my book, How to Win Friends.
So smooth, Will.
What a smooth plug, right?
How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies by Will Witt.
You can search it on Amazon and find it for pre-order.
It comes out September 21st, audiobook and print.
But in my book, what I talk about is the ways that you can actually stand up for the things you believe in.
That's what PragerU talks about.
And that a hero, by definition, is someone who knows that there is evil around them and instead of being a follower, decides to be a leader.
And says, okay, there are bad things happening in the world.
There is evil happening in the world.
I can either sit back and say, oh, it's just going to be all bad.
Or someone else is going to take care of it.
Or you can be that person to go out of the way and say, I am going to take on this evil myself.
I completely agree.
And we often fall into the mindset, and you can fall into this nihilist mindset of it's never going to get better and there's nothing that I can do about it.
But think about it this way.
I don't think that anybody will or my age has yet experienced America the way it was meant to be experienced And if you can be a person that every day of your life fights for that Fights for that accomplishment of bringing that America back not only for yourself But for the people around you and for future generations that is something heroic That is something brave and it takes you standing up and speaking when nobody else wants to do it being the brave person in the room Maybe when nobody's looking and that's what we're trying to do every single day and That's what integrity is.
Integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody is watching.
It's an incredibly important thing.
I learned that getting my Eagle Scout, actually.
My grandpa taught me about integrity, about doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
Dennis talks about being a fighter.
You can either be a fighter, someone like me, someone like Amla, out on the front lines fighting, or you can be someone who supports the fighters.
That is almost just as important because people like Amla and I, people like Dennis, people like Tucker Carlson, we need support.
We need support from people who might not necessarily be out on the front lines, but are at least supporting what we do.
And that's why you can go to PragerU.com and go to PragerU.com slash donate so that you can help keep our videos free and help get that information out there so that young people like Amla and I, our age, can learn these types of values.
Because if they don't learn the values that PragerU professes...
Then America will truly be lost.
And America, as we know, is the last best hope for the world.
Right, and we want to arm you with the truth.
We want to arm ourselves with the truth.
So another great thing that you can do is just educate yourself on the issues because we are going to bat for our values today.
And you can do that by watching our videos at PragerU or finding other conservatives that you like and that you love.
Also, if you are a young person and you feel like you don't have any conservative friends, please join PragerForce by going to PragerForce.com and build a strong community of people that represent you.
That's the most important thing you can do with your time on this earth.
We have had such a great day being here and hosting.
Yes, we have.
Thank you, everyone, so much for watching.
