	Thank you.
	Hi, everybody.
	Dennis Prager with you.
	Halloween weekend.
	And I'm sure you will be careful not to engage in cultural appropriation.
	A made-up offense that doesn't exist.
	It actually does not exist.
	The whole thing is a lie.
	And it is done because there is so little racism in this country that the left always makes up things.
	Like white privilege and cultural appropriation.
	The list...
	Oh, of course, microaggressions.
	Oh, how could I forget that?
	If you say that I don't see color, you're a racist, which proves that there's so little racism because that means you're not a racist.
	How could you be racist if you don't see color?
	Right?
	It's very hard.
	To use an analogy of another group that has been hated, if you don't see whether a person is a Jew or a non-Jew, how could you be an anti-Semite?
	Okay?
	How's that for a good question from a guy who wrote a book on anti-Semitism in its third edition, I might add?
	Oh, well, no, that's right.
	That's not a bad example.
	Remove from baseball.
	It's been used since 1900 or earlier than that.
	I don't understand, though, what is wrong with bullpen.
	I don't get it.
	I mean, I understand cockpit.
	No, pigskin is definitely worse than bullpen.
	You understand, folks, these people are empty.
	Everyone on the left is an empty soul.
	So what they do is they create things to give their emptiness fullness.
	That's all it is in a nutshell.
	From Paul Krugman and the whole crowd at the New York Times to PETA to BLM, it's all empty human beings needing meaning.
	And they make it up.
	To the ADL. The ADL is a farce.
	It should go out of business.
	I say this as a Jew who has fought anti-Semitism his whole life.
	The ADL now makes more anti-Semitism than it fights.
	Okay?
	I'm prepared to go on record for that.
	That is how disgusting the ADL has become.
	It's a left-wing organization that creates antipathy among decent Americans.
	Their announcement about Halloween, not to engage in cultural appropriation and not to foster two genders.
	That's the business of the ABL, not to foster two genders.
	ABL is Anti-Defamation League.
	It's self-defaming, so its name is Cuckoo.
	Anyway, remember, everything the left touches, it ruins!
	There is no exception to that rule.
	Okay.
	Here's one for you.
	Noam Chomsky said that those who remain unvaccinated should be segregated, saying that obtaining food after they had the decency to remove themselves from the community was their problem.
	After the left-wing linguist from the Washington Examiner was asked what separation of the unvaccinated would look like on a practical level, Chomsky said the unvaccinated should remove themselves from the community for the safety of others and make arrangements to get food without coming into contact with others.
	How can we get food to them, Chomsky told YouTube's Primo Radical Sunday?
	Well, that's actually their problem.
	Well, there you go, Noam Chomsky.
	One of the sickest individuals in my lifetime, morally sick, said the United States was the most violent country in the world, and of course the whole left says, of course, yes, exactly.
	Ask the people whose lives we saved and countries we saved what they think of American quote-unquote violence.
	Noam Chomsky.
	The new group to hate, the unvaccinated.
	For the record, I know no one who died of COVID. I know that people have died of COVID. I don't dispute that for a second.
	I'm just telling you on a personal level, which matters to everybody.
	It isn't decisive, but it matters.
	I know no one who died of COVID. And I know one person who I am certain died of the vaccine, and I know another of whom I am certain was seriously injured by the vaccine.
	Both dear, dear people in my life.
	It's not like I heard it from somebody.
	You are much better off if you can have natural immunity, which is what I wanted and I have now.
	Okay.
	But, if you still believe everything you read, it's a crapshoot.
	AT&T, let's see what this article is about here.
	White people, you are the problem.
	AT&T's new racial re-education program promotes the idea that racism is a uniquely white trait.
	Oh, it's true, but I learned this in college.
	I was told in college, in graduate school in the 70s at Columbia, that wasteland, which doesn't even have the decency to change its name from Columbia to indigenous.
	It doesn't celebrate Columbus Day, but it keeps the name of Columbus.
	The list of moral fraud at Columbia is very long.
	Anyway, they taught me at Columbia that black cannot be racist.
	There you go.
	Because they don't divide the world between the decent and the indecent, as I do, as Viktor Frankl did in his Incredibly important work, Man's Search for Meaning.
	They divide the world between races and between classes.
	Race, gender, and class.
	That's the trinity of the left.
	AT&T Corporation has created a racial re-education program.
	That promotes the idea that American racism is a uniquely white trait and boosts left-wing causes such as reparations, defund police, and trans-activism.
	This is from Christopher Rufo, the great Christopher Rufo, I might add, at City Journal, along with the Claremont Review of Books, two most important journals.
	And there are many important ones, but I think they're at the top of the list.
	I've obtained a cache of internal documents about the company's initiative called Listen, Understand, Act, which is based on the core principles of critical race theory, including intersectionality, systemic racism, white privilege, and white fragility.
	CEO John Stanky...
	Launched the program last year and subsequently has told employees that private corporations such as AT&T have a, quote, obligation to engage on this issue of racial injustice and push for systemic reforms in police departments across the country.
	So this is a good example of products you shouldn't buy, AT&T. Now, of course, there are so many corporations that are hurting this country badly.
	Like AT&T. That it's very hard to know where you can actually get a product of a company that isn't anti-American and isn't filled with lies.
	It's toughy.
	It's a toughy.
	According to a senior employee who agreed to speak on condition of anonymity, managers at AT&T are now assessed annually on diversity issues with mandatory participation in programs such as discussion groups, book clubs, mentorship programs, and race re-education exercises. mentorship programs, and race re-education exercises.
	See, you thought that this was confined to communist countries, re-education. - Thank you.
	Anywhere the left takes over, this is what happens.
	AT&T. It's really...
	It's angering.
	So you have a choice.
	You can tune out or you can fight.
	That's your choice.
	I've chosen to fight.
	Country and liberty are worth it.
	We'll return.
	1-8 Prager 7-7-6 Dennis Prager Show.
	Trending now on America First with Sebastian Berger.
	How bullied are you that Americans are finally waking up, JD?
	Look, I'm very excited about what I'm seeing.
	Certainly in Virginia, but also in Ohio, it feels like there's a real grassroots movement brewing on the conservative movement right now.
	And it's, you know, just like in times past, it's not just the politicos, it's not just the establishment folks.
	Sometimes not even people who are that political, but they're just very fired up about what their kids are teaching.
	Their kids are coming home crying upset because they're being told that they're a bad person depending on the color of their skin, and they're just fed up about it.
	And I think it may very well take down Terry McAuliffe, but I certainly think it is the beginning of the movement all across this country that's going to take down a lot of Democrats all over the nation.
	In the break, we were talking to my team here, and somebody said, well, it's neck and neck, and if Glenn loses by three points, that's a big, big deal in any other normal election.
	And here's the reaction I have, J.D. There is no such thing as a normal election after 2016. Do we have any faith that there will be a normal election?
	Talk to us about the recent breaking news about Facebook and the censorship of...
	You've written a piece about it.
	How do we get back to quote-unquote normal, J.D.? Oh, man.
	We've got a lot of work to do.
	You know, Facebook did two things, basically, in the 2020 election, one of which we've known about for a while.
	They basically censored information that was negative about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.
	They promoted information that was negative about Donald Trump.
	And I really believe that swung the election in a really important way.

	Justice is something a country must at least attempt to get right.
	You're gonna have things that fall through the cracks.
	You're gonna have externalities.
	You're gonna have issues.
	But you have to at least try to make a country just.
	The current regime is basically saying we don't even want to attempt to preserve the American ideal of justice.
	That justice is nothing more than us being in charge and you being under our power.
	Socrates said, Is it not the purpose of a juryman's office to give justice his favor to whoever seems good to him, but to judge according to the law?
	This is what he has sworn to do.
	Our people in charge, our leaders, were sworn to protect our country.
	1.7 million people just waltz right into the country.
	They get to have anchor babies.
	The other side wants to give them amnesty, wants to make them citizens.
	This is not sustainable.
	We know it's not sustainable.
	And the ruling class in both parties, by the way, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party, they want this for votes.
	They want this for government dependency.
	They want this for cheap labor.
	Now, I'm pleased to see that Texas is now stepping up and saying, we're not going to put up with this.
	Texas needs to defy federal authority, arrest every single person that comes from this caravan.
	They need to be welcoming this caravan, not with benefits and signs, but with handcuffs and chartered flights back to right where they came from, immediately.
	No questions asked.
	Don't put them in front of a judge.
	Put them on a plane and get them back.
	They broke the law.
	That would be justice.
	A seven-year-old would say, yeah, they deserve to go back.
	because they broke our laws.

	You can get out of these terrible companies, especially AT&T, for $30 a month.
	It's $800 savings, $800 per family a year.
	I tried it out.
	It's exactly the same networks as the other ones, as the big ones, except you're only spending $30 per month for unlimited text, unlimited talk, 6 gigabytes of data.
	All right?
	That's pretty good.
	From your cell phone dial pound 250, say Dennis Prager.
	It's a perfect segue, what I told you about AT&T. Perfect.
	You'll save 50% off your first month in addition.
	And also you can get the latest iPhone or Android at a great price, which is what I did with them as a second phone.
	They'll pound 250, say Dennis Prager.
	That's it.
	That's all you need to do.
	Companies are becoming like Mao's China.
	There's no exaggeration here.
	This re-education camps.
	So I'm reading to you from this piece.
	This is...
	Let's see here.
	White employees are tacitly expected to confess their complicity in white privilege and systemic racism, or they will be penalized in their performance reviews.
	Get that?
	That's what they have in China now.
	They have documents which document how good a citizen you are for the communist regime.
	We don't need that to be federal here.
	Companies will do it.
	As part of the overall initiative, employees are asked to sign a loyalty pledge.
	Sign loyalty pledges.
	Wasn't the left anti-that when it asked people to sign that they weren't communists?
	In the 1950s?
	Whoa, this is fascism!
	To keep pushing for change with suggested intentions, such as reading more about systemic racism and challenging others' language that is hateful.
	If you don't do it, the senior employee says, you're considered a racist.
	AT&T did not respond when asked for a comment.
	Of course it would stop if millions of people dropped AT&T, but I don't live in a make-believe world.
	People won't drop AT&T. Anyway, Verizon had something similar, if I'm not mistaken.
	That's why I must say...
	Pure Talk looks better and better every day.
	On the first page of AT&T's Listen, Understand, Act internal portal, the company encourages employees to study a resource called White America.
	If you want to know who's responsible for racism, look in the mirror.
	The article claims that the United States is a, quote, racist society.
	What does that even mean?
	What does that mean?
	What if you were a white person whose ancestors, whose parents came to the United States?
	From Estonia?
	From Argentina?
	How exactly are you responsible for American racism?
	White people, you are the problem.
	Regardless of how much you say you detest racism, you are the sole reason it has flourished for centuries.
	The author Darlene Glanton writes that American racism is a uniquely white trait and that black people cannot be racist.
	There you go.
	That's a direct quote.
	A black person cannot be racist.
	Isn't that an amazing thing?
	Has that ever existed?
	By the way, can a half black, half white person be racist?
	Can they be half racist?
	The level of lying and absurdity is constantly pushed.
	These are new levels of absurdity.
	Well, it's not new, I take it back.
	I told you I studied it in Columbia.
	A black person cannot be racist.
	So, Farrakhan, Minister Farrakhan, who everyone acknowledges is an anti-Semite, is anti-Semitism included in racism?
	What is Farrakhan?
	Doesn't he, aside from the Jews, doesn't he believe that the white person was created by the devil?
	That's you, Sean.
	Just for the record.
	Well, now I get the red.
	It's not the first time you've been told it.
	It makes perfect sense.
	A black person cannot be racist.
	Wow.
	They can't be a lot of things.
	According to the left, they can't be thieves.
	Because when a black person, according to the left, when a black person shoplifts, it is a result of racism.
	So, there you go.
	What an amazing thing that your skin color determines that you cannot...
	Be certain things that are evil.
	Mind-blowing.
	White women, she claims.
	It's always a she.
	Nearly always.
	The disproportionate role of women in wrecking the society is never pointed out because then you're attacked for misogyny.
	If you attack men who are worthy of attack for violence, you say men are more violent, nobody disputes it.
	If you say women are disproportionately represented in the wrecking of the society through gender studies and anti-racism, quote-unquote, then you're attacked for being a misogynist.
	You see, feminism said women are equal, but they never meant it.
	You can only criticize men.
	You cannot criticize women.
	As I have said all of my life, feminism has made women weaker.
	Much weaker.
	Than they were prior to feminism.
	It's all backwards, my friends.
	It's all backwards.
	That's why I like to speak on college campuses.
	They've never heard anything you've just heard in the last half hour.
	Never.
	Never, ever, ever, ever.
	Isn't that amazing?
	We shall return!

	Well, this is the defining issue down the stretch because at the end of the day, Terry McAuliffe can't explain why he thinks parents shouldn't have a role in their kids' education.
	He just can't do it because there's no explanation.
	All he wants is big government to stand between parents and their kids so that they, in fact, can continue to do what the left liberal progressive party wants to do.
	Which is to keep individual rights in the drawer and have big government decide everything.
	That's what it is.
	And oh, by the way, Hugh, this education issue flies right in the face of the entire left establishment.
	I mean, it's not just big government.
	It's Hollywood.
	It's everybody else.
	And so this is why, down the stretch here, this basic issue of parents having a fundamental right to be engaged in their kids' education is one that...
	Terry McAuliffe can't explain because he knows the answer is just so offensive to so many people, why he thinks big government should impose on parents' rights, and why parents are all standing up with us.
	I mean, this is not a campaign.
	It is a movement now.
	It is a movement, and I was called last night by my daughter, who saw my schedule, and said, please ask Glenn Youngkin if he will get the Virginia schools.
	Some common sense on COVID. Now, two of my three grandchildren have COVID, but the oldest one, who hasn't, and has tested negative four times, can't go to school for 24 days in Virginia.
	The quarantine rules, along with the CRT in Loudoun County, along with the attempt to marginalize parents at Terry McAuliffe, have you heard that the COVID rules are driving moms crazy?
	Parents have had it.
	They've just had it across the board.
	I mean, think about it.
	It started with parents standing up for one simple, basic request.
	Open our schools.

	This is Carol Platleybow for townhall.com.
	Thirty years have passed since Justice Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
	His tenure there has been consequential indeed.
	He's the court's foremost proponent of natural law, an understanding that our individual rights are transcendent and come from God.
	This understanding undergirds his approach to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, powerfully informing the justices' unyielding commitment to limited government and equal justice before the law.
	Over the last five years, Justice Thomas has authored more opinions than any of his colleagues on the Supreme Court.
	His influence only continues to grow.
	And he's beloved by the scores of people who know him.
	He knows the names of the children of the marshals who guard the courthouse.
	He's mentored generations of clerks, treating them like family.
	And his distinctive, hearty laugh rings out within his judicial chambers.
	May God bless this great, good, and brilliant man.
	And may he serve on the court many years longer.

	Man, I miss my father, and I want him to be here with me, but he's not.
	We all had something in common.
	A lot of us were miserable.
	We had no fathers in our lives.
	This is how I began the life of crime.
	I desired to have a father who would tell me that what I did was wrong.
	Look for Salem now in the App Store.
	or go to salemnow.com Hi
	everybody, I'm Dennis Prager.
	We're going to take some calls, although I also want to read to you a little more about the despicable AT&T, the communists who are now in charge at AT&T. They're indistinguishable from communists.
	They would put you in re-education camps if they could.
	American big companies are truly despicable.
	They are ruining the society more than any other institutions other than colleges and high schools.
	So it's a big problem, to say the least.
	I was just thinking, I reflect a lot, as you know, about life.
	So here's a reflection for you.
	I have grandchildren.
	I have two grandchildren.
	And hopefully I will have more because my second son is getting married in the spring and he aches to be a dad and I'm thrilled about that.
	It's a statement about a young man who wants to be a father.
	It's a beautiful thing.
	Anyway, I'm thinking my grandchildren will be able to say their grandfather fought.
	Against the lies that permeated the society when he was vibrant and healthy and a spokesman in the country.
	And I don't think about that a lot, but I'm thinking about it right now.
	What do you want your grandchildren to say about you?
	That you fell into the lies?
	And you're okay with banning the unvaccinated from restaurants, as will happen in L.A., as has already happened in New York?
	That you went with the herd?
	What did Grandpa do?
	Oh, Grandpa listened to the authorities.
	What a beautiful thing to think about.
	What did Grandpa do for freedom?
	Nothing.
	What did Grandpa do when the schools that his grandchildren went to taught those kids that America is a systemically racist society?
	Nothing!
	For that matter, what did Dad do?
	So, there will be a reckoning one day as to who the cowards were.
	Paul Krugman, who is about as sick as it gets at the New York Times, which is an achievement, because there are a lot of sick people writing at the New York Times.
	Paul Krugman writes about how Republicans are cowards.
	Is that a riot?
	Republicans are the cowards.
	Everything he writes is the opposite of the truth.
	The man, his articles, if you substituted Democrats for Republicans, Left for right, you would actually have a very accurate piece.
	He's the guy who said when Gabby Giffords, remember the congresswoman was shot?
	He wrote that day that it was Republicans who did it.
	Did he pay any price?
	You pay no price on the left.
	So don't tell me who the cowards are.
	There's no price paid for being on the left.
	left.
	There's a huge price paid for being on the right.
	$10,000 minimum to any charity Paul Krugman wants to debate me anywhere in the country and have his own moderator if he wants.
	But they would never debate.
	They don't debate.
	Same with Tom Friedman at the New York Times.
	It's the freewheeling debate on who injures this country, the left or the right.
	How's that?
	Is that a big enough topic?
	They don't debate.
	I don't blame them for not debating.
	They only know how to smear.
	Let's see.
	Here's a guy who works for AT&T in Chicago.
	Hello, Joe.
	Hey, Dennis.
	How are you?
	Thank you for having me on.
	Yes, sir.
	I do work for AT&T. I used to say that with pride once.
	But I'm going to tell you, this diversity discussion has been going on for a while now.
	I work in the ranks.
	I'm out in the field.
	I'm a technician.
	I will tell you that what they talk about is not among our ranks.
	I work with black, Hispanic, Asian, any race across the border, and we look at each other, not with color, but as a fellow technician.
	And I think that's what the people up top fail to realize.
	What I read, are you familiar with this?
	Yes.
	Well, no.
	I've been familiar with the diversity training.
	This is the first I saw of this report.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	I don't understand.
	You are familiar with the diversity training, or you're not?
	No, no.
	We have had a sit-down with the group to bring it up, and they've put out documents, but nothing to the extent of this report.
	Oh, I see.
	So the details are new to you.
	Yes.
	I got it.
	I got it.
	I hear you.
	Well, you should look into it and then call me back.
	I'm serious.
	Ask your colleagues if they have had these sessions.

	There are only two possibilities.
	You procrastinate, which is a human universal, or you don't have $19.95 to try it out, in which case I have nothing to say.
	But if you do have $19.95 to try it out for three weeks, why wouldn't you?

	Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here.
	Yeah.
	A friend of mine told me that Howard Stern spent about 20 to 25 minutes attacking me.
	Did you hear about that, Sean?
	Isn't that cool?
	Isn't that something?
	This is a true example of a midget attacking a giant.
	I never use that phrase with specific people, but the thought of Howard Stern, who has accomplished nothing except financial success, Attacking me, who has touched so many lives for good things, is a perfect example of the mediocre hating the decent.
	Just a good example.
	So I'm going to actually, I think I'm going to listen to it and then play it.
	He sent me the thing.
	He called up, this guy called up.
	One of the executives at the Howard Stern Show and asked if he'd have me on.
	Oh, I would love to go on.
	What, are you kidding?

	It's really an interesting issue because I was talking to you about, you know, the perspective of what my grandchildren and for that matter, children think of me.
	And they will know dad or poppy loved life, enjoyed life, and did not walk around in fear.
	And that is a great model for my children and my grandchildren.
	You should all be blessed to have a man in your life, unlike Howard Stern, who walks around in fear, and have one who does not.
	I have not feared the COVID issue, and I have no doubt that people die of it.
	I have not feared it from the first day.
	I led a completely normal life.
	As you recall, I announce regularly, getting together with about a dozen To 15 of my close friends every Friday night, for example, from the beginning for our Shabbat dinner.
	I conducted Jewish services for the 14th or 15th year in a row, except for the previous year, and there were no mask mandates.
	We didn't ask you if you were inoculated.
	We didn't ask you when you last had sex.
	We didn't ask you anything.
	Just 400 people came to my services.
	I think they're still up, actually, at SalemNow.com.
	If you have no knowledge or are deeply knowledgeable of Judaism, it's irrelevant.
	It would touch your life.
	It's at SalemNow.com.
	If it's still up.
	Very powerful stuff, those services.
	Yeah, so I don't walk around in fear.
	That's correct.
	Every leftist does.
	And a few conservatives, too.
	They bought the stuff.
	They bought the lies.
	They bought the fear.
	They don't only fear COVID, they fear dying of heat from global warming.
	Paul Krugman, the liar-in-chief of the New York Times, wrote that Right-wingers, Republicans say global warming is a hoax.
	I never read one right-winger who said global warming is a hoax.
	Paul Krugman lies with such ease that you wonder if the man actually owns a conscience.
	I've never met a right-winger.
	I don't say none did, but I am in the right and I never read someone who said global warming is a hoax.
	What we say is, That the claim that it is an existential threat, that existence itself is threatened, that's not a hoax.
	That's just sick alarmism.
	You can't say that that's a hoax.
	It's a projection of idiocy.
	We say that all of the things that they are doing to wreck our economy, like the poor folks who have to pay so much more at the gas pump because Biden and the Greens are ruining the economy of this country.
	We were energy independent a year ago, and since the Democrats took over, we are now energy dependent, with prices doubling.
	On crude oil.
	That's what we're against.
	Don't say it's a hoax.
	The world is getting warmer.
	We don't think it's an existential threat.
	You who live on fear.
	God, it must be crappy to be a leftist.
	It's got to be crappy.
	That's why there isn't one happy leftist.
	Did you ever see Paul Krugman?
	Does he strike you as a happy man?
	It's hard to imagine a more miserable human being.
	The Princeton economist who is a columnist for the New York Times.
	And he calls people cowards, whereas he hasn't ordered a word of dissent at Princeton in his life.
	And he calls Republicans cowards.
	It's a service that I provide to you, reading the New York Times.
	It is.
	It's a service.
	I should get some sort of medal for it to immerse myself in such a world of mendacity.
	Minneapolis, Joseph, hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Hi.
	When you mentioned a second ago about the Howard Stern thing, I would love...
	There was no interview.
	I would love to hear an interview with him, too.
	It was a monologue.
	No.
	What I'm saying is Howard Stern said he will never vote for a Democrat ever again.
	And you and he having a conversation about that would be just riveting.
	I agree with you.
	Anyway, that's not why I called.
	And you know that.
	I'm thankful for the article.
	That you read, and I'm hoping that you will...
	It is already up at DennisPrager.com to anticipate your question because we've got to take a break.
	Training now on The Charlie Kirk Show.
	Justice is something a country must at least attempt to get right.
	You're going to have things that fall through the cracks.
	You're going to have externalities.
	You're going to have issues.
	But you have to at least try to make a country just.
	The current regime is basically saying we don't even want to attempt to preserve the American ideal of justice.
	That justice is nothing more than us being in charge and you being under our power.
	Socrates said, Is it not the purpose of a juryman's office to give justice his favor to whoever seems good to him, but to judge according to the law?
	This is what he has sworn to do.
	Our people in charge, our leaders, were sworn to protect our country.
	1.7 million people just waltz right into the country.
	They get to have anchor babies.
	The other side wants to give them Amnesty wants to make them citizens.
	This is not sustainable.
	We know it's not sustainable.
	And the ruling class, and both parties, by the way, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party, they want this for votes.
	They want this for government dependency.
	They want this for cheap labor.
	Now, I'm pleased to see that Texas is now stepping up and saying, we're not going to put up with this.
	Texas needs to defy federal authority.
	Arrest every single person that comes from this caravan.
	They need to be welcoming this caravan, not with benefits and signs, but with handcuffs and chartered flights back to right where they came from.
	Immediately.
	No questions asked.
	Don't put them in front of the judge.
	Put them on a plane and get them back.
	They broke the law.
	That would be justice.
	A seven-year-old would say, yeah, they deserve to go back because they broke our laws.

	Thirty years have passed since Justice Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the US Supreme Court.
	His tenure there has been consequential indeed.
	He's the court's foremost proponent of natural law, an understanding that our individual rights are transcendent and come from God.
	This understanding undergirds his approach to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
	Powerfully informing the Justice's unyielding commitment to limited government and equal justice before the law.
	Over the last five years, Justice Thomas has authored more opinions than any of his colleagues on the Supreme Court.
	His influence only continues to grow.
	And he's beloved by the scores of people who know him.
	He knows the names of the children of the marshals who guard the courthouse.
	He's mentored generations of clerks, treating them like family, and his distinctive hearty laugh rings out within his judicial chambers.
	May God bless this great, good, and brilliant man, and may he serve on the court many years longer.

	Richard, North Hollywood, California.
	Hello.
	Hey, good morning, Dennis.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	Yes, sir.
	The reason I'm calling is being a restaurant bar owner in this city we live in, in L.A., Beyond frustrating, and now with this vaccination card mandate,
	I just want to give you a little insight on an industry I know you've talked about a lot where it's dying, and I mean, with no restrictions, we've probably been operating only at like 60%, and now they're doing this vaccination card where supposedly there's going to be undercover task force going out,
	looking for people that aren't You know, businesses that aren't enforcing this, first fine is $1,000, second time is $2,000, and any time after that is $5,000.
	It's just, it's to the point now where you want to give up.
	We're not giving up, but it's like, you know, push yourself into the pool with weight idea.
	The left hates you, my friend.
	Please understand, the left hates small businesses.
	You're one of the only things that they don't control.
	They control the schools.
	They control AT&T and Verizon and Coca-Cola and Disney.
	They control big corporations.
	They don't control you.
	They hate your guts.
	If you go out of business, it's a victory for the left.
	Here's the funny part.
	So if all the people my wife and I employed, I would say probably 95% of them are hardcore liberals.
	If they had any idea who, what we stood for, I'd zip it.
	I don't say anything.
	They wouldn't change.
	They wouldn't change.
	These people are brainwashed.
	They wouldn't change.
	There is no fact you can tell a liberal that will have them vote Republican.
	Nothing.
	These people are brainwashed.
	Sweet, brainwashed people.
	There is nothing, nothing.
	You are losing your job because of the Democrats.
	They will still vote Democrat.
	So here's one for you.
	I bet that's going to happen.
	So starting next Thursday, there's going to be people going out that are so, you know, happy about this vaccination card thing.
	And we're not going to do it.
	We haven't told our staff this.
	Well, if you don't do it, I will come to your restaurant and have a rally, just as I did.
	During the lockdown last year.
	By the way, the proof that this has nothing to do with health or science is that the people who are safest of all, the people with natural immunity, are not allowed into a restaurant.
	Okay?
	That proves it has nothing to do with health.
	Now on America First with Sebastian Borka.
	How bullied are you that Americans are finally waking up, J.D.?
	Look, I'm very excited about what I'm seeing.
	Certainly in Virginia, but also in Ohio, it feels like there's a real grassroots movement brewing on the conservative movement right now.
	And it's, you know, just like in times past, it's not just the politicos, it's not just the establishment folks.
	Sometimes not even people who are that political, but they're just very fired up about what their kids are teaching.
	Their kids are coming home crying, upset because they're being told that they're a bad person, depending on the color of their skin, and they're just fed up about it.
	And I think it may very well take down Terry McAuliffe, but I certainly think it is the beginning of the movement all across this country that's going to take down a lot of Democrats all over the nation.
	In the break, we were talking to my team here, and somebody said, well, it's neck and neck, and if Glenn loses by three points, you know, that's a big, big deal in any other normal election.
	And here's the reaction I have, JD. There is no such thing as a normal election after 2016. Do we have any faith that there will be a normal election?
	Talk to us about the recent breaking news about Facebook and the censorship of conservatives.
	You've written a piece about it.
	How do we get back to quote-unquote normal, J.D.? Oh, man.
	We've got a lot of work to do.
	You know, Facebook did two things, basically, in the 2020 election, one of which we've known about for a while.
	They basically censored information that was negative about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.
	They promoted information that was negative about Donald Trump.
	And I really believe that swung the election in a really important way.

	Like, that wasn't my intent at all.
	And to be sitting in this seat here and seeing...
	You know, the way that this is dividing our world up, you know, being vaccinated or being unvaccinated, you know, it's just sad to see.
	It's creating a lot of division, a lot of confusion, you know, a lot of people saying things that are untrue.
	We're not giving space for each other to speak.

	Well, this is the defining issue down the stretch because at the end of the day, Terry McAuliffe can't explain.
	Why he thinks parents shouldn't have a role in their kids' education.
	He just can't do it because there's no explanation.
	All he wants is big government to stand between parents and their kids so that they, in fact, can continue to do what the left liberal progressive party wants to do, which is to keep individual rights in the drawer and have big government decide everything.
	That's what it is.
	And, oh, by the way, Hugh, this education issue flies right in the face of the entire left establishment.
	I mean, it's not just big government.
	It's Hollywood.
	It's everybody else.
	And so this is why, down the stretch here, this basic issue of parents having a fundamental right to be engaged in their kids' education is one that Terry McAuliffe can't explain because he knows the answer is just so offensive to so many people why he thinks big government should impose on parents' rights and why parents are all standing up with us.
	I mean, this is not a campaign.
	It is a movement now.
	It is a movement, and I was called last night by my daughter, who saw my schedule, and said, please ask Glenn Youngkin if he will get the Virginia schools some common sense on COVID.

	Hi, everybody.
	The happiness hour is the second hour of the Dennis Prager Show every Friday.
	Come hell or high water, no matter what.
	No matter what.
	Since 1990. Happy, happy, happy, happy.
	My friends, I'm Dennis Prager.
	Happiness is a moral obligation, not just an emotional state.
	Who just told me a story?
	Oh, man, who told me this?
	Oh, yes, yes, yes, indeed.
	A friend of mine, my wife and I had dinner with a couple.
	We're very close to, and they told the story.
	I'm going to get some of the details wrong, but they...
	He mentioned that in some talk or something that happiness is a moral obligation.
	Somebody came over and said, I've heard Dennis Prager say that.
	And I am associated with that sentiment.
	It's a very important one.
	It's not a sentiment.
	I am associated with that observation.
	We owe it to others to act as happy as possible.
	So, hi everybody.
	Happiness Hour.
	Never missed one, except when I've been off on a Friday.
	But if I've been on on a Friday, I've had a Happiness Hour.
	A lot of people have been touched by it.
	That's my whole point, is to touch people.
	I have no desire to have power over people.
	That's why I'm not on the left.
	I have a desire, however, to touch people's lives for the better.
	As corny as that sounds.
	So today's topic on the Happiness Hour...
	Is something I've become more aware of in the last year and a half than I have before, than I was before.
	And that is fear.
	The role of fear in ruining people's chances for being happy.
	Boy, Franklin Roosevelt said we have nothing to fear but fear itself during the Depression.
	This country has changed radically.
	And that was a pretty radical Democrat who said that.
	But socially, the man was not a radical.
	He was economically a radical.
	He spoke frequently of defending Christian civilization against Hitler.
	What president today would say, defending Christian civilization, they'd be impeached.
	Nothing to fear but fear itself.
	So here's a very, very real question.
	Not easily answered, but we need to address it.
	If fear is such an impediment to happiness, you can't be happy and frightened.
	Is that fair?
	Can we agree on that one?
	You can't be happy and frightened.
	Fair enough.
	So then the question arises, how do you stop being afraid?
	I would argue, since I am not in the frightened category, that part of the answer, and I'm not happy about saying this, Tell you the truth as I see it, is your nature.
	So I was given a nature not to be afraid.
	So I did a lot of things in life that others wouldn't do because I feared less.
	Some of the countries that I went to were not the world's safest countries.
	And I never took silly risks.
	I don't believe in silly risks.
	My example is I wear seatbelts.
	I think it's silly not to wear a seatbelt.
	But I have lived a much fuller life because I don't walk around afraid.
	People are afraid.
	I mean, think about it.
	I'll get to COVID, but it's not COVID I'm thinking about now.
	People are afraid to get married.
	There's an example for you.
	People are afraid to get married.
	They are afraid to have children.
	Fear, I have to believe that we probably live in the age of the frightened more than at any time in American history.
	Maybe not just American history, maybe the whole Western world.
	People walk around in fear.
	They fear getting married.
	They fear commitment to another person.
	They fear having children.
	And they fear...
	What else do people fear?
	It's an interesting question.
	Aside from dying, we'll put dying on the sideburner.
	Is there such a thing as a sideburner?
	No, backburner means we won't address it.
	So I'll do a sideburner.
	I'll stick with sideburner.
	It doesn't exist.
	But I will make one.
	I had a number of things in my mind.
	Getting married.
	Well, I'll take that for a moment.
	People have called my show.
	You know, my parents got divorced, Dennis, and I just fear getting married.
	I don't want to go through what they did.
	Half the couples get divorced.
	Whether they're right or wrong is irrelevant.
	That's what they fear.
	So you fear getting divorced so you won't get married.
	I find that bizarre.
	I actually did a male-female hour that it is better to have been married and divorced than never to have been married because marriage makes you more mature.
	Makes you grow up.
	Even if it's a lousy marriage.
	But people have that fear.
	Something bad might happen.
	It's an amazing thing.
	Of course something bad might happen.
	I'll give you another example.
	And I've used this very often.
	From the beginning of my radio career, if I would speak about A visit to Israel, which I've done maybe two dozen times.
	So there'd be no time the following didn't happen.
	In other words, the following happened every time I mentioned visiting Israel.
	Somebody would call the show, say, you know, I really, really want to visit Israel, but I'm afraid to do so, and I'm going to wait until it's safe.
	And that's when I came up with my motto, when it's safe means never.
	That was a good motto.
	That's almost as good as the bigger the government, the smaller the citizen.
	When it's safe means never.
	So they ended up never going to Israel.
	It's really a terrific example.
	Because the truth is, walking around Israel is safer than walking around sections of any major city in this country.
	New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Chicago.
	It is safer to walk midnight in Israel than in many, many areas of the cities I just mentioned.
	So, of course, somebody might say, well, I don't walk midnight in Philadelphia.
	Okay, fair enough.
	I'm just giving you a little perspective.
	But you could walk midnight in the vast, overwhelming majority of miles of Israel.
	Anyway, the point is that when it's safe means never.
	So people...
	You lose out in life.
	I'm not for taking irrational risks.
	I'm not for it at all.
	But you can't live your life guided by fear.
	So how do you conquer fear?
	That's the subject of this happiness hour.
	I think we can all acknowledge that it makes you unhappy.
	How do you conquer it?
	Back in a moment.
	There's about 57 Muslim states in the world.
	There's one Jewish state.
	The massive ingathering of Jews in the last 150 years back to the land is absolutely unprecedented.
	They say that there's no greater sign of redemption coming than the Jewish people returning to the hills of Judea.
	As a Christian, I've always supported Israel's claim to the Holy Land.
	To me, the Palestinians were just getting in the way of God's plan.
	300,000 Palestinians are unemployed.
	In spite of all the years of conflict, there's hope here, if you know where to look for it.

	Subject of the happiness hour, second hour every Friday is happiness, is fear.
	Fear is a huge impediment to happiness.
	So how do you...
	It's a really great question.
	Why do some people...
	Why are some people so much more afraid than others?
	Why are there people who stayed in their house for over a year and I spent my time with friends and with strangers and giving speeches and speaking at rallies?
	Why?
	I don't think God is preventing me from dying from COVID. Okay, let me put that on the table immediately.
	A lot of you are calling it about God and I think God is a factor.
	I agree with you.
	But God is not...
	In my opinion, my bodyguard.
	I don't see God as a celestial butler.
	I am infinitely more interested in what God wants from me than what I want from God.
	Okay?
	So I just want to make my theology clear to you.
	So the reason that I don't walk around in fear is not because I think I have supernatural protection.
	Okay, so we can put that aside.
	Part of it is, I do believe my father.
	My father was not afraid.
	And my father fought two and a half, three years in the Navy in World War II. He was an officer on a transport ship.
	So that was something that Japanese kamikaze planes particularly targeted because they wanted to kill.
	As many of the Marines or Army service people that they could, who were being transported to the islands in the Pacific.
	He slept like a baby, and I believe him.
	Now, in his case, I will acknowledge, there was a God factor.
	My dad believed that God determined your day of death.
	You could be showering, or you could be in the Pacific in World War II. If it's your time, it's your time.
	I don't happen to share that view, but he had that view.
	So that was a very big help.
	I acknowledge it.
	But even in general, having nothing to do with death, he was not a guy who walked around afraid.
	And he transmitted that to me.
	His motto to my mother, Who also didn't coddle me?
	I think not being coddled was a big factor.
	I'm really working through with you the very big question of why someone walks through life afraid and why another one doesn't.
	So I'm not taking a lot of credit for this.
	I take some credit, but a lot of it is A, built in, and B, nurtured from my childhood.
	My parents didn't coddle me in the least.
	At all.
	I was rarely hugged.
	They were not verbally effusive in their emotions toward me at all.
	It's an understatement what I just said.
	I think that growing up coddled makes you frightened.
	I mean, how did we invent the idiocy of safe spaces at college?
	Because kids are so afraid of even hearing someone they differ with.
	Go to a safe space because a conservative is coming to your college?
	There is something deeply wrong with you if you need a safe space.
	You are sick.
	This is not a criticism.
	It's actually a statement of fact.
	That is sad.
	If you need a safe space, I have a picture of me.
	I think it was Colorado State.
	I gave a speech there.
	There's an actual picture of me in front of a door that says safe space.
	You know what they do with the safe spaces?
	They give you hot chocolate and they give you stuffed animals.
	This is college kids.
	I didn't get hot chocolate and stuffed animals at five.
	Little.
	Let alone a 20. Safe space.
	See our film, no safe spaces.
	I did have a stuffed frog.
	But it was so Hendrix.
	He was so large that he was frightening.
	Maybe that was another reason I didn't grow up with fear, because of Hendrix.
	Just having Hendrix in my room could have inculcated fear in me.
	Yes, I got that as a gift, believe it or not.
	I thought it was a bit odd.
	I got it from somebody at my bar mitzvah.
	A giant stuffed frog for my bar mitzvah.
	I thought it was odd, but on the other hand, I thought it was hilarious to have this giant stuffed frog in my room.
	I took a picture of him, and I made the Hendrix Society.
	So I would give people a card as a member of the Hendrix Society.
	So I actually became an entrepreneur in high school.
	A lot of kids paid me 35 cents.
	I remember what the price was, which is equivalent today to about $3,500.
	So why aren't people afraid?
	If you coddle your child, if you've been coddled, you'll be afraid.
	There's a big one for you.
	Life's rough.
	The sooner you learn it, the better it is.
	That's a big one.
	Another one, I've always wanted to live life fully.
	I want to live a long life, but I'd rather lead a full life.
	That's a philosophical commitment on one's part.
	So, that's the subject here.
	Why are some people so afraid that they can't be happy in this past year?
	My God.
	People spending a year or not letting their kids play with other kids?
	That's unhappiness inducing.
	How buoyed are you that Americans are finally waking up, JD?
	Look, I'm very excited about what I'm seeing.
	Certainly in Virginia, but also in Ohio, it feels like there's a real grassroots movement brewing on the conservative movement right now.
	And it's, you know, just like in times past, it's not just the politicos, it's not just the establishment folks.
	Sometimes not even people who are that political, but they're just very fired up about what their kids are teaching.
	Their kids are coming home crying, upset because they're being told that they're a bad person, depending on the color of their skin, and they're just fed up about it.
	And I think it may very well take down Terry McAuliffe, but I certainly think it is the beginning of the movement all across this country that's going to take down a lot of Democrats all over the nation.
	In the break, we were talking to my team here, and somebody said, well, it's neck and neck, and if Glenn loses by three points, you know, that's a big, big deal in any other normal election.
	And here's the reaction I have, JD. There is no such thing as a normal election after 2016. Do we have any faith that there will be a normal election?
	Talk to us about the recent breaking news about Facebook and the censorship of conservatives.
	You've written a piece about it.
	How do we get back to quote-unquote normal, J.D.? Oh, man.
	We've got a lot of work to do.
	You know, Facebook did two things, basically, in the 2020 election, one of which we've known about for a while.
	They basically censored information that was negative about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.
	They promoted information that was negative about Donald Trump.
	And I really believe that swung the election in a really important way.

	No, that's not it.
	No, no, no.

	You know, I really hate engineers who are wise guys.
	That's a special category of human being.
	No, it was not the song.
	I understand that it had that lyric.
	Alright, why are some people walking through life afraid and others not?
	I really do believe, and I had never come out with this till the show today, which is a big factor in my life of thinking things through live, as it were.
	And that...
	I didn't think about until I said it here during this hour.
	If you've been coddled as a kid, you probably have way more fears than if you were not.
	Yes, you talk too much.
	That's it.
	Yes, that's it.
	Here we go, folks.
	Is that perfect?
	Pete in Seattle asks for a song about worry.
	You talk about people that you don't know.

	Hi, everybody.
	The subject of the Happiness Hour this week is fear.
	Why are some people so much more afraid than others?
	Look at what happened in the last year and a half.
	Some of us led full lives and others...
	We're frightened out of their minds.
	They didn't even let their kids play with other kids.
	It's a form of child abuse based on fear.
	You think your kid will die from COVID? Your kid is more likely to die of suicide, of drowning, of an automobile accident than of COVID. But hey, what are facts compared to fear?
	And the answer is they're nothing.
	They mean zilch.
	The fear mongers on CNN and the New York Times are successful.
	They know they can control you if they make you afraid.
	But I don't get afraid, so they can't control me, and it drives them crazy.
	Not just about me, but about tens of millions of other Americans chosen not to walk around in fear.
	So we have a wonderful guy here in Minnesota, Paul.
	And he has three kids who are living in some fear.
	Is that fair to say?
	Yeah, and the word that I use is anxiety.
	And anxiety is just simply fear of the future.
	So they're virtually interchangeable.
	But I'll cut it short for you and condense it.
	My three children, their worldview is what other people think of them.
	I have determined that if your worldview is consumed through a six-inch screen for the better part of your life, you're going to be a fearful human being.
	And my challenge as a parent is I can't compete.
	I can't compete with a 24-7 consumption of nonsense that they find on their phones, and it's really troubling to observe.
	Boy, is that true.
	I hate to put this to you, but I will, nevertheless.
	And it's only meant for good, obviously.
	But if you had to do the raising of them over again, what would you change, if anything?
	Well, that's a really good question.
	I don't think I would change much, frankly.
	The old days, without the internet, without the phones, We weren't afforded the self-indulgent luxuries that the modern child has.
	We just didn't have options.
	And kids today have options, so I probably wouldn't have changed anything.
	You and I have chatted about my daughter that graduated from KU, and you admonished me for sending her to college four or five years ago.
	And I think my comeback to you is until Medtronic hires a salesperson without a college degree, What is one to do?
	Right, right, right, right.
	That's a good discussion.
	And I thank you for the call.
	By the way, I used cuddled.
	It should be cuddled, I think.
	The word is cuddled.
	That's what I meant earlier.
	Sean, could you put down...
	I want to actually have a subject for an hour.
	If you could raise your kids over, what would you change?
	I think that would be a very compelling topic.
	It doesn't have to be a happiness hour or even an ultimate issues hour, but I'd like to do it.
	And so all of you should think about it in preparation for that show.
	Okay, all.
	Monica, Sandy, Oregon.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Thank you so much.
	I'm grateful to you for all you are and all you do.
	Thank you.
	You are so welcome.
	Okay, a couple things.
	I totally agree with what the gentleman said in the prior call.
	I don't have fear for myself, necessarily, nor my husband, because we're both...
	Not really fearful people, but my anxiety and fears go with my child.
	And again, in our current day in society, it's hard to avoid that.
	I do think, because she was my only child, she had some medical issues when she was younger, so that led me on this kind of probably over-coddling quality.
	The other issue, however, is that when I was young, my parents, like you had mentioned about your parents earlier, We're rather unfazed about where we were, what we did.
	All five of my siblings and I talk about that frequently, that we lived in a very free way.
	And so we kind of grew up that way.
	I grew up with, of course, my own set of irrational or rational fears here and there.
	But when I was in high school, I was on a bus going from or to my high school, which was kind of down in what you would consider the ghetto of St. Paul, Minnesota.
	I remember sitting there passing a billboard, a big billboard that said, I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees.
	It's fascinating that you remember that, that it made such an impression on you.
	Oh, it hit me, Dennis, like a punch into the chest.
	Yes, for good reason.
	It is a great line.
	I'm familiar with it.
	I don't know who came up with it, but it is great.
	So here's another insight based on this call.
	You know, whenever I get calls from Sandy, Oregon, some things just come to my mind.
	So, I wonder how many of you noted that Monica has one child and that this daughter had medical conditions, so she has a lot of fears and coddled the child as a result.
	She said that.
	Whereas she grew up with five siblings, I think that's correct.
	Maybe that's another factor in the coddling of young Americans, because you can't coddle six kids.
	You can one or two.
	Back in a moment.
	Trending now on the Hugh Hewitt Show.
	I'm going to go back.
	Well, this is the defining issue down the stretch because at the end of the day, Terry McAuliffe can't explain why he thinks parents shouldn't have a role in their kids' education.
	He just can't do it because there's no explanation.
	All he wants is big government to stand between parents and their kids so that they, in fact, can continue to do what the...
	Left, liberal, progressive party wants to do, which is to keep individual rights in the drawer and have big government decide everything.
	That's what it is.
	And oh, by the way, Hugh, this education issue flies right in the face of the entire left establishment.
	I mean, it's not just big government.
	It's Hollywood.
	It's everybody else.
	And so this is why, down the stretch here, this basic issue of parents having a fundamental right to be engaged in their kids' education is one that...
	Terry McAuliffe can't explain because he knows the answer is just so offensive to so many people why he thinks big government should impose on parents' rights and why parents are all standing up with us.
	I mean, this is not a campaign.
	It is a movement now.
	It is a movement, and I was called last night by my daughter, who saw my schedule, and said, please ask Glenn Youngkin if he will get the Virginia schools.
	Some common sense on COVID. Now, two of my three grandchildren have COVID, but the oldest one, who hasn't, and has tested negative four times, can't go to school for 24 days in Virginia.
	The quarantine rules, along with the CRT in Loudoun County, along with the attempt to marginalize parents at Terry McAuliffe, have you heard that the COVID rules are driving moms crazy?
	Parents have had it.
	They've just had it across the board.
	I mean, think about it.
	You had started with parents standing up for one simple, basic request.

	Thirty years have passed since Justice Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
	His tenure there has been consequential indeed.
	He's the Court's foremost proponent of natural law, an understanding that our individual rights are transcendent and come from God.
	This understanding undergirds his approach to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, powerfully informing the justices' unyielding commitment to limited government and equal justice before the law.
	Over the last five years, Justice Thomas has authored more opinions than any of his colleagues on the Supreme Court.
	His influence only continues to grow.
	And he's beloved by the scores of people who know him.
	He knows the names of the children of the marshals who guard the courthouse.
	He's mentored generations of clerks, treating them like family, and his distinctive hearty laugh rings out within his judicial chambers.
	May God bless this great, good, and brilliant man, and may he serve on the court many years longer.

	It's the final segment.
	This has been a great happiness hour.
	I'm not sure I ever addressed this theme, which is mind-blowing, given how many years, 21 years I've been doing, 22 years, doing the happiness hour, fear, but of course the staggering fears that prompt people to wear masks outdoors.
	Show you how much fear can control lives and ruin lives, for that matter.
	So why don't some have fear and some do?
	That was the great question.
	And I think, it's not what I expected, but this coddling of children, partially because of being in small families.
	Six kids, you can't coddle six kids.
	Much easier to spoil one or two than six.
	So I think that that's a factor here.
	Let's see here.
	David in Columbus, Ohio.
	Democrats see themselves as victims.
	Conservatives don't.
	Yes, that's interesting.
	Well, that's part of the safe space thing.
	At colleges, what a pathetic thing.
	Kids are afraid of speakers that they don't agree with.

	Did you know that?
	If you don't have that fear, hmm.
	Yes, Matt in Poconos, Pennsylvania.
	He's the youngest of seven.
	You don't get coddled as much in a big family.
	That's exactly right.
	Linden, Greenwood, South Carolina wasn't coddled.

	You know, you got doctors out here working hard, physicians out here working hard, and everybody's trying to do what's best for them and their families, which I respect.

	Well, this is the defining issue down the stretch because at the end of the day, Terry McAuliffe can't explain why he thinks parents shouldn't have a role in their kids' education.
	He just can't do it because there's no explanation.
	All he wants is big government to stand between parents and their kids so that...
	They, in fact, can continue to do what the left liberal progressive party wants to do, which is to keep individual rights in the drawer and have big government decide everything.
	That's what it is.
	And, oh, by the way, Hugh, this education issue flies right in the face of the entire left establishment.
	I mean, it's not just big government.
	It's Hollywood.
	It's everybody else.
	And so this is why, down the stretch here, this basic issue of parents having a fundamental right to be engaged in their kids' education, It's one that Terry McAuliffe can't explain because he knows the answer is just so offensive to so many people, why he thinks big government should impose on parents' rights, and why parents are all standing up with us.
	I mean, this is not a campaign.
	It is a movement now.
	It is a movement, and I was called last night by my daughter, who saw my schedule, and said, please ask Glenn Youngkin if he will get the Virginia schools.
	Some common sense on COVID. Now, two of my three grandchildren have COVID, but the oldest one, who hasn't, and has tested negative four times, can't go to school for 24 days in Virginia.
	The quarantine rules, along with the CRT in Loudoun County, along with the attempt to marginalize parents at Terry McAuliffe, have you heard that the COVID rules are driving moms crazy?
	Parents have had it.
	They've just had it across the board.
	I mean, think about it.
	You had started with parents standing up for one simple, basic request.
	Open our schools.

	This is Carol Platt-Lebow for townhall.com.
	Thirty years have passed since Justice Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
	His tenure there has been consequential indeed.
	He's the Court's foremost proponent of natural law, an understanding that our individual rights are transcendent and come from God.
	This understanding undergirds his approach to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, powerfully informing the justices' unyielding commitment to limited government and equal justice before the law.
	Over the last five years, Justice Thomas has authored more opinions than any of his colleagues on the Supreme Court.
	His influence only continues to grow.
	And he's beloved by the scores of people who know him.
	He knows the names of the children of the marshals who guard the courthouse.
	He's mentored generations of clerks, treating them like family.
	And his distinctive hearty laugh rings out within his judicial chambers.
	May God bless this great, good, and brilliant man.
	And may he serve on the court many years longer.
	Turning now.
	Hi, everybody.
	This is the third hour of the Friday show.
	That means the last hour of the broadcast week.
	Call in on whatever's on your mind about audio equipment, photography equipment, fountain pens.
	Enjoy the music.
	Classical music.
	And cigars.
	That's right.
	I got all five.
	I don't always remember all five, but I did today.
	Hello, my friends.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	Yep.
	Last hour of the Happiness Hour is a biggie.
	You should definitely get PragerTopia so as to have it and play it for others about fear and happiness and why so many people walk around in fear.
	And others don't.
	Why is that?
	That was really good stuff.
	Great to be with you, everybody.
	My name is Dennis Prager.
	I was listening to a Howard Stern attack on me.
	She'll play for you next week.
	And he announced at the outset that he had never heard of me.
	His sidekick said she did.
	I have to say, it has nothing to do with me.
	Or ego or anything like that.
	If the guy never heard of me, he is a bit out of it.
	I do have 40 years of talk radio.
	I have many number one best-selling books.
	And I have a website that has a billion views a year.
	A billion.
	That's more than he has.
	With PragerU.
	But he's not a man of thought, so I am.
	That makes sense that he would never have heard of me.
	Anyway, it'll be fun to analyze the attack.
	You should see my fireside chat this week.
	I deal with those who mocked me, wished me death, because I said I would prefer natural immunity to a vaccine.
	When the science is so clear that it is better to have natural immunity than a vaccine.
	I don't know why that is even controversial.
	One more time, although I will say it many more times, the vaccine push has nothing to do with health.
	It's all about power.
	It's all about forcing you to do what the authorities want you to do.
	The proof?
	That if you had COVID and you have the best immunity possible, natural immunity, that doesn't count.
	You still can't get into a New York restaurant.
	You still get fired, even if you have natural immunity from having had COVID. This stuff has nothing to do with science.
	It's all power.
	And using fear, which is the greatest vehicle to power over people, getting them scared.
	So, welcome to the Not Scared Show.
	The Love Life Not Scared Show.
	That's a subtitle for my program.
	Okay, y'all!
	Mike in...
	Where are you, Mike?
	Arcadia, California.
	Hello, Mike.
	Hello, sir.
	I would like to know if you would relocate geographically if the U.S. split apart, balkanized in such a way that leftists got, at the very least, Los Angeles County or perhaps the whole state of California.
	Oh, I would relocate in a second.
	I have said that.
	I would much prefer to live in a society governed by love of America, love of freedom, and Judeo-Christian values than by left-wing values.
	And by the way, if that break were to take place, there would be no doubt in my mind who would prosper.
	Over the long run, Even though they would have much more of the wealth because they would have every big city.
	If the country broke up by ideological division, it's already broken.
	It's just not official.
	Left and right have nothing in common with one another.
	Literally nothing.
	And the part that believes in e pluribus unum, liberty and God we trust, Versus the part that craps on all three of those values?
	It wouldn't take that long to see which one would prosper.
	And I don't only mean financially prosper.
	I mean prosper in terms of quality of life.
	Levels of crime, for example.
	You think there would be more murder in left-wing areas or right-wing areas?
	How's that for a starter?
	More theft in right-wing areas or left-wing areas?
	You name the social pathology, and it is probably more likely to take place in a left-wing place.
	1-8 Prager 776. And Nick in Los Angeles, California.
	Hello, Nick.
	Hello, Dennis.
	I've noticed that in many of your lectures and videos and columns passed, you often made the point that while conservatives, while the left routinely attacked conservatives as evil, not just mistaken, you were not going to do the same in return, and you regularly made the point that you could be on the left and still be wrong, but still be a good person.
	But you don't make that point so much today.
	Correct.
	In fact, I've heard you regularly called the left evil, so I'm wondering, did anything change in your mind?
	Yeah.
	And is it unhelpful?
	Go ahead.
	So, and obviously feel free to respond.
	So, number one, to be very precise, you also know I never call liberals evil.
	I know you've differentiated between liberals and leftists.
	Right, which a lot of conservatives do not agree with me with regard to.
	But I just want to make that point as a side point.
	But I do make that point all the time.
	Liberals are weak.
	Liberals make the left possible.
	But liberals are not evil.
	The left is evil.
	Destroying Western civilization is as big an act of evil, short of mass murder, as you can engage in.
	All they do is evil.
	They are ruining the greatest experiment in liberty in human history.
	They are shattering everything beautiful about the West.
	I feel like five years ago you would not have spoken this wrong.
	That may well be.
	That may well be.
	So people ask me, the converse, do you ever change your mind?
	I did not call the left evil, and part of the reason was they were not strong enough to be called evil.
	You have to have a certain level of strength.
	I mean, there are groups, there are evil groups that have no power, like the Nazi party, and they are evil.
	They're irrelevant.
	But the left is not irrelevant.
	The left is evil and relevant.
	Final point before you move on to another caller.
	Is there any such thing in your mind as a leftist who is a good person, even if they're wrong about everything?
	Yes.
	Look, the human being is a complex figure.
	There are leftists who take care of their families, who take care of their friends, who don't cheat in business.
	There's no doubt in my mind that they exist.
	But that was true about every single evil group in history.
	There were honorable Nazis, there were honorable communists, there were honorable individual fascists.
	Not every single person who advocates despicable ideas...
	Leads a despicable life.
	So what does it mean to be a good person?
	You are ruining my country, but you're nice to your wife?
	Okay, I just left to agree to disagree, because I always think attacking people as evil for their ideology instead of just wrong is very counterproductive.
	Oh, I think it's counterproductive not to.
	I think if you don't quote...
	I think if you don't call evil evil, they win.
	You can call ideas evil.
	Well, I don't call them evil.
	I call the left evil.
	There are individuals.
	George Soros is evil.
	If George Soros is not evil, I am an orangutan.
	If George Soros is not evil, evil doesn't exist.
	Would you say, are you prepared to say George Soros is evil?
	Would you say Noam Chomsky is evil?
	Are any leftists?
	Back in a moment. Back in a moment.
	And Kyrie Irving is refusing to get vaccinated.
	New York City is one of, I think, two cities that is requiring proof of having been vaccinated in order to play.
	Here's what he said again.
	You know, I know I can use my platform to spread positivity and spread light on the things that matter to me.
	You know, and I just care about our world a lot.
	And if I'm going to be demonized for that, at least let me go out on my own accord.
	First things first, this isn't about me, and it's not about me dispelling what's being said about me particularly or for anybody.
	It's just saying I'm standing with all those that believe in what's right and are doing what's right for themselves.
	Everybody has a personal choice with their lives.
	You know, everybody has a right to feel a certain type of way.
	Everybody's entitled to their own opinions.
	Everybody's entitled to do what they feel is best for themselves, you know, and putting me as a hero or painting me as a villain, sort of say, or going against the vaccine mandates.
	Like, that wasn't my intent at all.
	And to be sitting in this seat here and seeing, you know, the way that this is dividing our world up, you know, being vaccinated or being unvaccinated, you know, it's just sad to see.
	It's creating a lot of division, a lot of confusion, you know, a lot of people saying things that are untrue.
	We're not giving space for each other to speak.
	You know, you got doctors out here working hard, physicians out here working hard, and everybody's trying to do what's best for them and their families, which I respect.
	And I'm always going to put that first.

	you're listening to the Dennis Prager show fascinating story here One of you is calling in about it.
	New York Times, Biden Pope said he should receive communion despite U.S. Bishop's rift on abortion rights.
	Strange headline.
	President Biden told reporters on Friday that Pope Francis had called him a good Catholic and said he should keep receiving communion.
	An unexpected development that appeared to put a papal finger on the scale in the debate raging in the United States.
	Roman Catholic Church, over with the president and other Catholic politicians who support abortion rights, should be denied the sacrament.
	So it is an interesting question.
	I'll deal with this Monday, but it's an interesting question.
	What would a Catholic have to do for the Pope to say you can't get communion?
	Hmm?
	It's an open question.
	I mean, is there anything?
	If you're for abortion a day before the baby is due, Baby is completely formed, completely human.
	Forget faith.
	Just biologically.
	There's no difference between the baby that day and the baby the next day, except its geographic location.
	Well, anyway, that's not surprising.
	Remember, everything the left touches, it destroys, and that includes...
	The current office of the Vicar of Christ on Earth.
	Okay.
	By the way, the last guy I called is interesting.
	You know, why would I call leftists evil?
	Can't they be nice people?
	And I said, you could be a nice person and have horrible ideologies.
	There's no exception to that.
	They were nice people.
	They were good neighbors.
	They were honorable individually.
	That would include white supremacists.
	Would you say a genuine white supremacist?
	The real deal.
	That's evil.
	But they could be a nice person.
	A lot of slaveholders were nice people.
	Just a fact.
	In fact, some slaveholders were among the greatest people who ever lived.
	Right?
	The founders of this country.
	But of course you have to judge them in their time.
	If you had a slave today, you would be undiluted evil.
	Okay, let's go to more of your calls here.
	Benjamin in Gainesville, Florida.
	Hello.
	Hi, Mr. Prager.
	Thank you for having me on your show.
	Yes, sir.
	So I wanted to get your advice on the following...
	I have a very wonderful male friend, a terrific guy.
	We have identical values, but our personalities are the opposite.
	He's very friendly, outgoing, very social, and I'm very reticent and very often quiet, and I don't generally enjoy social settings.
	So there's a certain tension there, and I wanted to get your advice on how to keep that from being a problem, because he's a terrific guy.
	Well, I can't give you any advice, because either it bothers you or it doesn't bother you.
	Let me use an example here.
	I have identical values to the living martyr, and we have exactly the personality differences that you described.
	Except in my case, I'm the outgoing one, and he's much less outgoing.
	We have very, very different personalities, and we adore each other, and we love being with each other.
	So, there must be something more here.
	If you have identical values, I don't know why different personalities would limit your friendship.
	I don't want him to ever get the impression that I think he is somehow dislikable because he enjoys things I don't.
	You know, if he wants to go to a big social setting and I don't want to come with him.
	I don't want it to send a wrong message, you know?
	What message would you be sending?
	Well, I don't know.
	I mean, wouldn't it seem like perhaps there's something I don't like about him?
	Wait, if you didn't...
	Then I must have missed something.
	If you wanted to go somewhere and he didn't...
	Well, no, let's say there's like a big party and he's like, well, why don't we go?
	And I say, but I don't want to.
	Wait, I thought you're the more introverted one.
	That's right.
	I'm sorry I got that backwards.
	Okay, so big deal.
	I don't understand.
	Why would it affect your friendship if one of you wanted to go to a party and the other one didn't?
	Well, I mean, right now it hasn't been a problem, but...
	Well, it obviously is, or you wouldn't have called up.
	Well, I guess because I often find we often don't do a lot of the same things together, and so that can put...
	All right, look.
	Okay, so that comes down to another issue.
	It has nothing to do with personality differences.
	The issue is, do you enjoy each other?
	This is the question I ask everybody about friendships and about romance.
	I never ask couples who ask me for advice or are engaged to get married, for example.
	I never ask, do you love each other?
	Are you in love?
	I ask them, do you enjoy each other?
	I mean, I actually have six questions I ask, and it's on the Internet, questions to ask if you're thinking of getting married.
	Questions to answer, actually.
	But the biggest one I ask anybody, same-sex friendship, opposite-sex friendship, do you enjoy each other?
	If you don't, there's no reason for you to be together.
	You both may be wonderful human beings, but why would you want to be with someone you don't enjoy?
	And it's not only possible to enjoy someone with a different personality, it's actually common.
	I don't know if I would want someone to have my personality and be my friend or, as it happens, my wife.
	I'm happy that I have my personality and I'm happy that you have yours.
	So there's no question here.
	It has nothing to do with that.
	If you don't enjoy each other, then say goodbye.
	And it's no one's fault.
	So the call really is self-answering.
	Do you enjoy each other?
	It has nothing to do with whether or not you have the same personality.
	Nothing.
	Back in a moment.

	Justice is something a country must at least attempt to get right.
	You're going to have things that fall through the cracks.
	You're going to have externalities.
	You're going to have issues.
	But you have to at least try to make a country just.
	The current regime is basically saying we don't even want to attempt to preserve the American ideal of justice.
	That justice is nothing more than us being in charge and you being under our power.
	Socrates said, Is it not the purpose of a juryman's office to give justice his favor to whoever seems good to him, but to judge according to the law?
	This is what he has sworn to do.
	Our people in charge, our leaders, were sworn to protect our country.
	1.7 million people just waltz right into the country.
	They get to have anchor babies.
	The other side wants to give them amnesty, wants to make them citizens.
	This is not sustainable.
	We know it's not sustainable.
	And the ruling class in both parties, by the way, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party, they want this for votes.
	They want this for government dependency.
	They want this for cheap labor.
	Now, I'm pleased to see that Texas is now stepping up and saying, we're not going to put up with this.
	Texas needs to defy federal authority.
	Arrest every single person that comes from this caravan.
	They need to be welcoming this caravan, not with benefits and signs, but with handcuffs and chartered flights back to right where they came from.
	Immediately.
	No questions asked.
	Don't put them in front of a judge.
	Put them on a plane and get them back.
	They broke the law.
	That would be justice.
	A seven-year-old would say, yeah, they deserve to go back because they broke our laws.

	I'm Dennis Prager.
	The hour you call in on whatever is on my mind.
	Egan, Minnesota.
	Kathy.
	Hello, Kathy.
	Oh, hi, Dennis.
	Love your show.
	Listen for about 18 years now, and you're my hero.
	Thank you so much.
	So on Wednesday, you were reading off a comment from a caller who had asked you if you'd vaccinate your kids for polio.
	And you didn't take the call, but you were reading it.
	And you said that, of course, you would vaccinate them for polio over COVID because kids don't have COVID.
	And I heard that, and I was like, hmm.
	Okay, you misheard me.
	I can't believe I said that.
	Even today, I said kids don't die of COVID. That's why I gave the example.
	It was about 35 minutes into the show.
	Okay, look, I'll check.
	If I said it, it came out by total accident because I know kids get COVID and I would never deny it.
	What I deny is that in any numbers they die of COVID. And I believe that and I thought that too.
	I recently listened to the show on your website afterwards.
	And I was like, hmm, he did.
	Okay, it was a mistake then, and I'm glad you pointed it out.
	I think I also made a mistake yesterday, by the way.
	It's very important for people to point out.
	In fact, I printed it out, but I didn't get to bring it in for whatever reason.
	I described the man, Breonna Taylor.
	Was with when she was shot by the police.
	I described him as a drug dealer.
	Her ex-boyfriend was a major drug dealer.
	But the one she was with when she was shot, I do not have evidence that he is or was.
	Well, is.
	He's still living.
	So that was a mistake, and some of you corrected me by email, and I appreciate it.
	My number one commitment is to telling the truth.
	Everything else is number two.
	Okay, so there we go.
	It doesn't change anything with regard to the thing I read to you from the Harvard Crimson of the black girl at Harvard who is quitting pre-med because she was mourning Breonna Taylor and the pre-med department in Harvard is racist.
	It was an incredibly bizarre article, but that's what goes for thought today at Harvard and elsewhere.
	Okay, let's see.
	Paul in Woodland Hills, California.
	Hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Really an honor to always speak to you, and I had a great time at Cigar Night on Wednesday night.
	Oh, you came to Cigar Night?
	I did.
	It was awesome.
	I love the Stone House, and it was a great venue for all of us to be there.
	That's right.
	It was a great venue.
	Thank you so much.
	So I'm going to give you my challenge.
	And I know you know Stephen Crowder, so if you just sort of...
	I'm going to use his style.
	Democrats are the enemy.
	Change my mind.
	That's my position.
	Yes, Democrats are the enemy.
	That's correct.
	Yes, well, we have to...
	The Democrats are...
	Oh, no, no, no, I'll tell you why.
	Okay, that's a very good fact.
	So why do I say leftists much more than I say Democrats?
	Because it's the left controlling the Democratic Party that has made the Democratic Party, which was once just worthless, now complicit in evil.
	So, and I do it for another reason, because it's not Democrats that are ruining your children at school, it's leftists.
	They are Democrats, but they're not doing it because they're Democrats, they're doing it because they're leftists.
	Leftism is the root cause of the destruction of all that is noble in this country, and that includes the Democratic Party.
	So yes, politically the Democrats are...
	The enemy of goodness.
	That is correct.
	But it is leftism that is the root of it.
	So, I hope that clarifies everything.
	And thank you for coming that night.
	All right.

	Just give it three weeks.

	The union for the referees, however, has voted for in favor of a vaccine mandate, but the players have not.
	And Kyrie Irving is refusing to get vaccinated.
	New York City is one of, I think, two cities that is requiring proof of having been vaccinated in order to play.
	Here's what he said again.
	I know I can use my platform to spread positivity and spread light on the things that matter to me.
	You know, and I just care about our world a lot.
	And if I'm going to be demonized for that, at least let me go out on my own accord.
	You know, first things first, this isn't about me and it's not about me dispelling, you know, what's being said about me particularly or for anybody.
	It's just saying, you know, I'm standing with all those that, you know, believe in what's right and are doing what's right for themselves.
	You know, everybody has a personal choice with their lives.
	You know, everybody has a right to feel a certain type of way.
	Everybody's entitled to their own opinions.
	Everybody's entitled to do what they feel is best for themselves, you know, and putting me as a hero or painting me as a villain, sort of say, or going against the vaccine mandates.
	Like, that wasn't my intent at all.
	And to be sitting in this seat here and seeing...
	You know, the way that this is dividing our world up, you know, being vaccinated or being unvaccinated, you know, it's just sad to see.
	It's creating a lot of division, a lot of confusion, you know, a lot of people saying things that are untrue.
	We're not giving space for each other to speak.
	You know, you got doctors out here working hard, physicians out here working hard, and everybody's trying to do what's best for them and their families, which I respect.
	And I'm always going to put that first.

	Well, this is the defining issue down the stretch because at the end of the day, Terry McAuliffe can't explain.
	Why he thinks parents shouldn't have a role in their kids' education.
	He just can't do it because there's no explanation.
	All he wants is big government to stand between parents and their kids so that they, in fact, can continue to do what the left liberal progressive party wants to do, which is to keep individual rights in the drawer and have big government decide everything.
	That's what it is.
	And, oh, by the way, Hugh, this education issue flies right in the face of the Standing up with us?
	Some common sense on COVID. Now, two of my three grandchildren have COVID, but the oldest one, who hasn't, and has tested negative four times, can't go to school for 24 days in Virginia.
	The quarantine rules, along with the CRT in Loudoun County, along with the attempt to marginalize parents of Terry McAuliffe, have you heard that the COVID rules are driving moms crazy?
	Parents have had it.
	They've just had it across the board.
	I mean, think about it, Hugh.
	It started with parents standing up for one simple basic request.
	open our schools.

	I am Dennis Prager.
	This is the hour you raise what you want.
	I want to just tell you on the causes of death.
	On children, let me get to the data which I had up here.
	Here we go.
	Ready?
	So this is from the CBC. As of October 27th, two days ago, as of October 27th, Deaths at all ages in America from COVID, 736,874 to be precise.
	You with me?
	736,000.
	Ages 0 to 4, 202. 5 to 18, 455. So between 0 and 18, 455 and 202 is 657. 657!
	And, wait, it gets more devastating to those of you worried about kids.
	And I feel sorry for your children if you're worried about them.
	With regard to COVID, I do.
	I feel bad if you didn't allow them to play with other kids or you want them to be masked at school or whatever other form of child abuse you believe in because you are walking around irrationally scared.
	So not only are they not dying from it, but the ones who are dying, according to Marty McCary, who is a professor of medicine at the Johns Hopkins Medical School.
	So you should just know.
	Let me get it right.
	Let me get the words here.
	My research team at Johns Hopkins worked with the non-profit Fair Health to analyze approximately 48,000 children under 18 diagnosed with COVID in health insurance data from April to August 2020. Zero among children without a pre-existing medical condition such as leukemia.
	And the teachers unions, those scum who ruin our schools, they wouldn't go into class if the kids weren't vaccinated.
	Sweden had school every single day in 2020 for every kid under 16 years of age.
	Just for the record.
	Not one died.
	Bad stuff going on.
	Bad stuff.
	But I'm the one who's mocked by the Washington Post and others because I prefer natural immunity to a vaccination.
	You know why they loathe me?
	They loathe me because I don't give a crap about what they say about me.
	Drives them crazy.
	Drives the left out of its mind.
	It drives the left out of its mind that I don't walk around in their fear-induced world.
	Existential threat of global warming.
	Death from COVID. You'll drop dead if you don't get a vaccine.
	Or a good chance you will.
	Drives them crazy when you're not a purchaser of their fears.
	That's why they hate people like me.
	And for good reason, I might add.
	I'm unhealthy for the left.
	Yep, a likable, pretty bright guy who is on a moral dimension and intellectual dimension of so many levels higher than the left.
	It bothers them.
	It really does bother them.
	And they should be bothered.
	And if they don't think it's true, come and debate me.
	Hey, who was it, Sean?
	Who was the guy?
	The late night talk show host who called Israel an apartheid state and I attacked on my fireside chat and invited to debate me.
	Who was that?
	Oliver?
	Oliver?
	Is there one named Oliver?
	Oh, come on.
	How could you not know that?
	You know all of these things.
	Anyway, I'll give you the name, but of course he wouldn't debate.
	He craps on Israel on his show to his sycophants in the audience.
	John Oliver.
	Yeah, I was right.
	John?
	John Oliver.
	Yeah, John Oliver.
	Oh, he's not really a late night host.
	That's what threw you off?
	He does a weekly program on HBO? So you don't call a weekly program a night show?
	Huh?
	Huh?
	Yes.
	Hey, you know what?
	Why don't you play Talk Too Much, You Worry Me to Death?
	You've got to admit, it was a great revelation to you, that song.
	We had a lot of fun with that.
	All right, let's see.
	Dick in Maricopa, California.
	What do you say?
	Sir, thank you.
	You're welcome.
	Yes, sir.
	Yes, sir.
	Are you making...
	I'm afraid...
	I'm sorry, I'm fearless, but I'm afraid you're making me...
	Listen to unhappiness here when I'd like to listen to some happiness.
	Now, one of the things that I called about was, you love classical music, as do I. Here in Maricopa, in the Bakersfield area, we do not have any classical music stations like KSUN or KMOTART down in L.A. as I used to listen to you for the last 25 years up on the top of the hill when I could hear everybody.
	Anyway, classical music is part of your life, my life, since I was a kid.
	And I would like to encourage.
	I've called both stations down there.
	All right, wait, wait, wait.
	You would like to encourage?
	Finish before we've got a break.
	I would encourage them to approach some station in Bakersfield.
	All right, all right.
	Got to take a break.
	Turning now on the Charlie Kirk Show.
	Justice is something a country must at least attempt to get right.
	You're going to have things that fall through the cracks.
	You're going to have externalities.
	You're going to have issues.
	But you have to at least try to make a country just.
	The current regime is basically saying we don't even want to attempt to preserve the American ideal of justice.
	That justice is nothing more than us being in charge and you being under our power.
	Socrates said, Is it not the purpose of a juryman's office to give justice his favor to whoever seems good to him, but to judge according to the law?
	This is what he has sworn to do.
	Our people in charge, our leaders, were sworn to protect our country.
	1.7 million people just waltz right into the country.
	They get to have anchor babies.
	The other side wants to give them amnesty, wants to make them citizens.
	This is not sustainable.
	We know it's not sustainable.
	And the ruling class in both parties, by the way, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party, they want this for votes.
	They want this for government dependency.
	They want this for cheap labor.
	Now, I'm pleased to see that Texas is now stepping up and saying, we're not going to put up with this.
	Texas needs to defy federal authority.
	Arrest every single person that comes from this caravan.
	They need to be welcoming this caravan, not with benefits and signs, but with handcuffs and chartered flights back to right where they came from.
	Immediately.
	No questions asked.
	Don't put them in front of a judge.
	Put them on a plane and get them back.
	They broke the law.
	That would be justice.
	A seven-year-old would say, yeah, they deserve to go back because they broke our laws.

	This is Carol Platt-Lebow for townhall.com.
	Thirty years have passed since Justice Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the US Supreme Court.
	His tenure there has been consequential indeed.
	He's the court's foremost proponent of natural law, an understanding that our individual rights are transcendent and come from God.
	This understanding undergirds his approach to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
	Powerfully informing the Justice's unyielding commitment to limited government and equal justice before the law.
	Over the last five years, Justice Thomas has authored more opinions than any of his colleagues on the Supreme Court.
	His influence only continues to grow.
	And he's beloved by the scores of people who know him.
	He knows the names of the children of the marshals who guard the courthouse.
	He's mentored generations of clerks, treating them like family, and his distinctive hearty laugh rings out within his judicial chambers.
	May God bless this great, good, and brilliant man, and may he serve on the court many years longer.
	You gotta admit that.
	All right.
	I'm Dennis Prager.
	I think I told you that already, so I take it back.
	On the other hand, I can't take it back, because I am Dennis Prager, but you know what I mean.
	I'm taking back that I said it.
	What is this?
	Oh, alright!
	I introduced Sean to this today.
	Changed his life.
	Too much.
	You worry me to death.
	You talk too much.
	Yes, that's my favorite.
	You even worry my pet.
	What year is this from?
	Do you have it there?
	I have no idea.
	60s?
	Huh?
	58?
	That's pretty close if you say 60s.
	That's right.
	There were issues, but it was a happier time.
	It is.
	Let me summarize some of your calls here, everybody.
	Okay.
	Ah, yes.
	Alan Sacramento wants to know...
	Where he can get the therapeutics that I took, which I believe contributed mightily to my having minimal indications of COVID a few weeks ago when I had it.
	I feel terrific.
	Not only feel terrific, I feel terrific having had it because I wanted to have natural antibodies.
	We're learning more and more about how unreliable the vaccines are.
	I'm not surprised.
	I didn't predict it, but I'm not surprised.
	So where can he go?
	So Sue, give me an answer immediately what website he can go for that medication.
	Mike in California, what is your take on the whole FDR statement about fear?
	My take is that it's exactly correct.
	The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
	I think it's great.
	As a Catholic in Pittsburgh who is annoyed with what the Pope said to President Biden, if I were a Catholic, I would be furious.
	But listen, this Pope comes from liberation theology, which is leftism with a cross.
	So what's happened to mainstream Judaism, mainstream Protestantism, and mainstream Catholicism?
	The left has ruined it.
	The Pope is just a reflection of that fact.
	I'm still annoyed at Benedict for resigning.
	I was angry when he did.
	Hey everybody, this is it.
	The last day to donate to ABF. The banner, Alliance Defending Freedom, is at my website.
	I wish you a blessed weekend.
