	Thank you.
	Prager and And exactly what I said last year, I repeat.
	First, I condemned the riot, whatever you want to call it, the moment I learned about it, which was at the very end of my own radio show.
	So, I just want to make that clear.
	It was wrong.
	And it was foolish.
	So, that's clear.
	The only person killed by anybody...
	The statistic died is not quite the same as killed by.
	A lot of people die.
	The only person was a woman, an unarmed woman, killed by a guard who should have been prosecuted.
	But he was not, of course.
	I want you to understand something.
	My basic view from the beginning, when they started calling it an insurrection, the first insurrection in history where the people were not armed and wore cartoon-type ears in it, the rape of language by the left.
	Like the rape of the words man and woman, male and female.
	The rape of the word racist.
	The rape of the word rape just continues.
	So what I said, I repeat.
	I said from the beginning that the left will use the events of January 6th the way the Nazis used the Reichstag fire as a deflection.
	And more important, as a way of justifying the grabbing of power.
	One of the handful of people whose views on this I truly am interested in is Kash Patel, former Chief of Staff of the Secretary of Defense, former Trump advisor, and the man along with Devin Nunes responsible for exposing the Russia hoax.
	Kash Patel can be seen at Salem News Channel as I can.
	And I welcome you to the Dennis Prager Show, Kash Patel.
	Thanks so much for having me, Dennis.
	I'm happy to be with you.
	I'm glad you feel that way.
	What do you think of my take on it?
	And I always tell guests there is absolutely no need to agree with me on my show.
	That it is being used by the left from the beginning as a way of garnering more power as the way the Nazis used the Reichstag fire.
	Is that overstated?
	No, I think it's a political cudgel.
	That's all it is.
	You know, if they wanted to get to the truth of January 6th, they would listen to programs like yours that actually talk about the facts and not the made-up political side of it, because that's the only thing they have to hang on to, they being the Democrats, to have on to.
	To run into the 2022 midterm.
	They actually aren't running on anything else.
	Well, that's a given.
	What do you think of the word insurrection?
	So look, as a former federal prosecutor, as a national security prosecutor for the Department of Justice, that word means something to me because we abide by the law that was legislated by Congress.
	And insurrection is tantamount to treason in this country.
	And I would let the Department of Justice speak to whether or not any insurrection happened.
	But as you know...
	And as the world knows, the Department of Justice has not charged anyone, nor will they, with insurrection because it was not a legal insurrection.
	So what does the media and the political left do?
	They hijack the term and inject it into the media bloodstream as hyperbole.
	And now we're talking about, we're still using this word insurrection a year later, and that's what they wanted.
	That's what the Jan 6 Committee wanted.
	That's what they all wanted.
	And I just don't, as a former federal prosecutor, you abide by the law.
	And the law says it was not an insurrection.
	Otherwise, Merrick Garland would have told us otherwise.
	So, that's very important.
	Nobody's been charged with insurrection, yet it's called an insurrection.
	I think any fair-minded person would say something is awry here.
	Back up your charge with charges.
	Right.
	That would be the most logical.
	What would you call it if not an insurrection?
	Look, there was a myriad.
	I'm the first one to admit there's a myriad of crimes committed that day, and those people need to be prosecuted.
	But as a former public defender as well, before my time as a prosecutor, I was one of the few people who was charged with...
	Breathing due process into our legal system.
	And when you have 750 people who are supposedly charged, and most of them languishing in detention in jail for crimes that are punishable by a year or less in prison, that tells me that the prosecutions in this matter have been political, and that tells me that due process has not been meted out because there should be bonds issued to so many of these people.
	There's people north of 60 years old who don't have a criminal record who have been held without bond.
	I've never heard of anything like that in the thousands of It seems to me that more crimes are being committed against the people who entered the Capitol than by people who entered the Capitol.
	Is that overstated?
	No, I think there's a lot of people that can make that claim, Dennis.
	I think a lot of those folks that entered the Capitol didn't commit a crime.
	If they did, they should be prosecuted.
	If they destroyed property, they should be prosecuted.
	If they assaulted anyone, they should be prosecuted.
	But as we look back on this from a year standpoint, if you remember, the first month of reporting was the riots led to the deaths of three to four individuals.
	Well, the facts have proven otherwise.
	Unfortunately, there was a tragic loss of life on that day, but the riots did not lead.
	To the deaths of those individuals.
	A Capitol Police officer shot one of the people, Ashley Babbitt, who was coming in.
	Another Capitol Police officer later died due to an unrelated injury from the Capitol.
	And the left and the mainstream media just seized those headlines to say, you know, President Trump and his supporters killed people at the United States Capitol.
	And that's just not true.
	And also to say that this is an attack that, you know, Nancy Pelosi has said this.
	This is a 9-11 style attack.
	As a former federal prosecutor and the Chief of Staff of the Department of Defense, and as a terrorism prosecutor, that is so profoundly offensive, and as a New Yorker, to compare that to 9-11 when 3,000 people were killed by Osama bin Laden and his cronies is outrageous.
	But that's just the hyperbole they want to equate this situation with.
	It's morally indefensible.
	Should the officer who shot to death Ashley Babbitt be prosecuted?
	I think you mentioned at the beginning of the show that they've decided not to.
	I don't know the underlying facts well enough to say that, but I think it's worth a look.
	And if this Justice Department is unable...
	To look at it fairly, then they can appoint a special counsel, just like we've done time and time again to look at this scenario.
	And quite frankly, they should have appointed a special counsel to deal with everything January 6th to remove the political taint that has sort of overridden the reporting about January 6th.
	And I think if the officer's conduct meets the charges for either involuntary manslaughter or the like, then he should be prosecuted just like anybody else.
	Kash Patel, there was almost a year of real violence, as opposed to the entry, illegal entry, acknowledged, of many people into the Capitol.
	Violence in cities around the country.
	We all remember Seattle and Portland, New York City, etc.
	Was there any comparable prosecution of perpetrators comparable to this?
	You know, Dennis, that's a great analogy.
	If you remember, a police precinct burned to the ground in Minnesota.
	Burned to the ground.
	Law enforcement agency.
	A federal courthouse in Portland, Oregon, was burned.
	Set en blaze.
	And I don't recall any of these individuals being prosecuted with the vigor.
	As this DOJ has gone after the January 6th folks.
	And the state courts could also, the state prosecutors could go after them just as well for committing property crimes, for damaging people's businesses, for ruining.
	And car dealerships were set ablaze in Minnesota.
	lifelong family dealerships were ruined by the actions of these hoodlums, and nothing was done to them.
	And they weren't called rioters.
	They were called First Amendment free speech people.
	And to differentiate them from the majority of the January 6th folks, I think, is one of the tragic mistakes the media has made.
	Why should they get a free pass for setting ablaze people's livelihoods and destroying police officers' cars and equipment and invading a police department?
	How can that go without punishment?
	And the only way is it's because it happened in places where The left rules the law.
	What was your immediate reaction when you learned about it last year?
	So I was at the Pentagon with the Secretary of Defense, and we were doing what we always do.
	We prepared.
	And we had prepared prior to January 6th.
	President Trump, in the Oval Office, me and the Secretary of Defense, on January 4th or 5th, authorized 10,000 to 20,000 National Guards men and women around the country should any city need them.
	And why is that important?
	Because the law requires a presidential authorization before National Guards men and women can be deployed into the cities.
	What most people don't understand is the second part of that law requires a governor or mayor, i.e.
	in D.C. Mayor Bowser, to request National Guards men and women.
	We, the DOD, cannot just send them in unilaterally.
	All right, hold it there for a moment.
	and Kash Patel back in a moment.
	clap clap clap clap
	Thank you.
	Now on the Hugh Hewitt Show.
	The hard infrastructure bill that you helped pass, it meant a lot in terms of what it's going to get done, but it also meant a lot in the politics of getting Build Back Better killed.
	Can you explain that to people?
	Yeah, I mean, initially the Democrats knew, the poll data was clear.
	What was popular was hard infrastructure, deteriorating roads and bridges and expand broadband.
	That was the popular part.
	And so I liked the approach in the Senate of putting together a bipartisan group.
	The president ended up agreeing with that to deal with the popular part of it, which I described as the sugar, leaving the Democrats to see if they could pass the spinach.
	And as we ended the year, it looks to me like they couldn't swallow the spinach.
	Now, I know Schumer said last night on a call, he's not giving up, I don't expect him to.
	But the worst of BBB, it appears to me, is dead.
	It does to me as well, and congratulations on that.
	It was great strategery, as former President Bush liked to say.
	I want to turn to senators.
	They have different career paths.
	Some are looking down the street at 1,600.
	And some are looking at Mitch McConnell and want to be leader someday.
	John Thune's actually been in both positions.
	I read a story that got me upset that John Thune might be thinking of retiring.
	How do you say it ain't so, Joe, in South Dakotan, Leader McConnell?
	Well, John Thune is an outstanding senator.
	He's done a great job as a whip, which is our number two position in the Senate.
	It would be a real setback for the country and for our party if he retires, and I certainly hope he won't.

	China has built the largest DNA database in the world and it's only growing.
	This should concern all of us.
	That's because China could use this information in the future, perhaps, for example, to build bioweapons targeting specific ethnic groups.
	Given this background, common sense dictates that Americans shouldn't be storing their DNA or other personal information with Chinese-linked firms.
	Quite sensibly, after getting an FBI briefing about the firm's connections to China, the Los Angeles County Sheriff notified the county that his office wouldn't work with Folgen.
	That's the genetics firm LA County hired for mandatory COVID testing and registration.
	Fulgin even admits in a public disclaimer it stores information outside the United States where data privacy protections may not be as secure.

	Along with Devin Nunes exposed the Russia hoax from within.
	And...
	And I have him on the line to talk about January 16th.
	By the way, where are you?
	What city are you in?
	Today I'm in D.C., but I spend most of my time in Las Vegas.
	Interesting.
	Nevada is one of the, I think, top ten states that people have been moving to, if I'm not mistaken.
	Yeah.
	It is.
	Well, so if you're a homeowner there, I congratulate you.
	Yep.
	Let me put it to you that way.
	I just want to finally address one aspect that, as a lover of this country, has actually deeply depressed me to the point where, for the first time in my life, I believe America has, the government of the United States has political prisoners.
	Again, I would ask you to assess if that is an overstatement.
	And the way they are treated, solitary confinement, 22 hours a day, etc., for entering the Capitol illegally, is the term political prisoner overwrought?
	I think for some of the cases it's spot on, because that's exactly what they are.
	Not all of them, but some of them.
	Look, solitary confinement...
	Is necessary to house some of our worst villains and criminals, and that's the reason it was created.
	And as a former public defender and federal prosecutor, I argued for and against solitary confinement on both sides of the aisle, depending on who my client was.
	But here's the thing.
	The left had always spoke out against solitary confinement.
	They wanted it abolished.
	Public defenders across America would not stand for any individual being put into solitary confinement, yet they're all silent now because it happens to be the individuals involved with January 6th.
	And 60-year-old females who have never been convicted of a crime should not be placed into jail, let alone solitary confinement.
	I'm silent because the silence or the support of the entire left, of everything from CNN to the New York Times to the universities, To the Department of Justice, the support for this torture, and I believe it is torture, including when it is done to violent criminals in prison.
	I do not believe that waterboarding is torture.
	I believe it is terror.
	But I do believe that solitary confinement is torture.
	We are torturing people who have a life of decency because they trespass the U.S. Capitol.
	This is a...
	A dark mark in American history, I believe.
	Yeah, as we talked about earlier, those crimes of trespassing and whatnot are misdemeanor offenses punishable by less than a year in prison.
	There is no misdemeanor offense that I ever argued a bond for where a bond was not given.
	But across the board, it seems for January 6th that the over-politicization of that event has caused these judges in Washington to basically detain.
	Almost everybody that's been charged with a crime there, including the crime of trespass and whatnot in the Capitol.
	And I just think that's outrageous.
	The hypocrisy is, where is the left?
	Where are the public defenders that I serve with who cried out against detention at all costs?
	Where are the New York City mayors and the mayors of Chicago and the mayors of Los Angeles who say, no cash bail for everyone except if you're a January 6th defendant?
	If you committed a murder in Chicago, we'll give you a bond and a bail.
	But if you're January 6th defending your trespass into the U.S. Capitol, you're going to be detained even though you have no criminal record.
	That is the height of hypocrisy in the criminal justice system that is taking off so many Americans.
	Well, again, it means we have political prisoners.
	Kamala Harris, who amazingly is the Vice President of the United States, Compare this to 9-11 and Pearl Harbor.
	Any thoughts on that?
	You know, we alluded to it earlier, the fact that anyone, especially the Vice President, would compare January 6th to the instigation of World War II for the United States and Pearl Harbor and the countless lives lost there, the soldiers, soldiers, airmen, the Marines there, and 9-11 to 3,000 lives lost in 9-11 in New York City and Washington, D.C. at the Pentagon in Shanksville, Ohio, is outrageous.
	As we now know from the facts, President Trump and the protesters did not cause the deaths of anyone at the January 6th event.
	And thankfully, we've got some good reporting to show that.
	But that's been speeded past by the likes of Kamala Harris, who just want the headline, who just want the political narrative to say This is 9-11.
	That's dangerous to our democracy.
	That's dangerous to our criminal justice system.
	Because I prosecuted terrorists across the world and across the United States.
	And to say these individuals from January 6th are affiliated with 9-11-style attacks is just morally offensive to me and hurts our criminal justice system.
	I like Ted Cruz a lot.
	And I admire him.
	So I was somewhat stunned when he described the people of January 6th as violent terrorists.
	Are you aware of that?
	No, I didn't know that he had said that.
	Was that recent?
	Yes, yesterday.
	He described some of the individuals at January 6th as violent terrorists.
	I'll have to look into that.
	I had not heard that.
	Okay, that's fine.
	I have to look into it.
	I mean, I don't have to look into it.
	I saw it.
	It wasn't even reported.
	I actually saw it.
	I don't understand it.
	I truly don't.
	When I say I don't understand, it's not a...
	It's not a phrase of I don't agree with.
	I just, I literally don't understand it.
	What about the, do you know anything about the dozens or even hundred hours of video that the government will not release?
	Yeah, so what I can speak to is the discovery process as a federal prosecutor and former public defender.
	When you're charged as a defendant, you're owed the evidence in the case against you, and not some of it or pieces of it, but all of it.
	And for some reason, the Department of Justice has withheld thousands of hours of videotaped surveillance and evidence to the defendants that have been charged in the January 6th cases.
	And there may be, there may be, I'll be the first one to admit, there may be a reason for it.
	I don't know what that reason would be, but to not release it to the public.
	But to not release it to the defendants, I think, violates their due process rights and their right to counsel and their right to a fair trial.
	So I think a lot of these attorneys need to start filing motions to have access to these.
	The entirety of the videotapes.
	Because it could contain exculpatory information.
	That is evidence of innocence against their client that the government is withholding.
	And to not release that footage and prosecute people based on that footage, I believe, is a violation of due process.
	You have to turn over all the evidence.
	We saw what happened when you withhold exculpatory evidence in the Russiagate, when we exposed that.
	People's lives are ruined.
	People's due process rights are trampled on.
	And we can't have that here in the U.S. Can you think of a legitimate reason for withholding this tape?
	I can think of some legitimate reasons for withholding it from the public.
	Give me one.
	Give me one.
	So it doesn't inflame possible juries, right?
	Juries might go in and see pieces of the videos and not what the defense attorneys in those cases want their focus to be on.
	So jurors might be predisposed to say, I'm going to convict all these people on January 6th no matter what.
	But that's different and apart from the defense.
	The defense should fully have access to the videos so they can go to those videos with their clients and prepare.
	Right.
	Well, listen, thank you for your time.
	It's been a pleasure meeting you.
	Thanks so much, and I hope everyone goes to fightwithcash.com and checks out all that we're doing.

	I wrote a piece for humanevents.com where I wrote, it was literally called, This Matters More Than That.
	Now, a great example of this...
	Is when Fauci, the lockdown artist, the anti-freedom activist, mad scientist, who is the best example of the technological and scientific elite that the left worships,
	when he was even confronted by a talk show host, where they asked Fauci, they said, so do you think that young people should be Should stop hooking up via Tinder and basically having very promiscuous relationships.
	And Fauci said, well, you have to understand there's some risk to that.
	He didn't denounce it because he understood that if he dared came out against promiscuous behavior for young people, there'd be a revolution.

	everybody, Dennis Prager here.
	There's a caller.
	Sometimes I summarize because I have so much to go, but I don't want to ignore it.
	Robert in Sarasota, Florida, had Ashley Bobbitt complied, she would be still alive.
	Yes, the officer told her not to enter.
	She was entering through a window, if I'm not mistaken.
	It's an interesting argument, and that's correct.
	I mean, had she simply gone backwards, the officer would not have shot her.
	The question is whether her not complying means that you get murdered, excuse me, killed.
	I won't even use the word murdered.
	When that argument is used with regard to George Floyd, had he complied, he'd be alive.
	It's not even an argument that people are allowed to use, even though it's absolutely true.
	For, I don't know, what is it, 10 minutes, 20 minutes?
	I don't remember.
	They begged him to get into the police car.
	That's not known to 99% of Americans, though the video was up on the Internet.
	That's true.
	Had a lot of people complied, There would be no death.
	But when it happens, we blame the police.
	We don't blame the police when the person killed is white, and the person killed, and the officer, I think in this case the officer is black, had it been reversed.
	Had it been at a BLM rally and a black killed by a white policeman, we would know his name.
	We would know the victim's name.
	It would be a national issue.
	So I think it's a learning exercise for everybody in the way in which news is transmitted and in the way the Democrats use it.
	All right.
	I don't consider January 6th worthy of all this attention.
	I will get back to it only because it is being used, so it's important because of the way it is being used.
	However, I want to repeat what I said to Kash Patel.
	We have political prisoners in the United States, just like they did in the Soviet Union for the first time in my lifetime.
	The left doesn't care because the left always does that.
	This is par for the course for the left.
	You use whatever you can to suppress.
	Opposition.
	Whatever it takes, you do.
	Just like wherever the left has taken over from Russia in 1917 to Columbia University in 2022, they suppress dissent.
	There is no example in history of the left gaining power and allowing dissent.
	But people are utterly ignorant.
	I wonder how many students at Harvard...
	I'm using it because there's a Harvard student present.

	I have a bunch of questions to ask.
	How many of you can identify the Gulag Archipelago?
	Ten.
	Ten out of the entire student body, you feel?
	That's really remarkable.
	About 20 million people were killed there, and God knows how many tortured.
	It bothers me on every level, not least of which, it's an insult to the dead.
	We owe it to them to at least acknowledge what they went through.
	Really, one of the major works of the 20th century is the Gulag Archipelago by Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
	To give you an idea, even though I, when I went to graduate school at Columbia in the 1970s, All my teachers were on the left.
	But it was incomparably better in many ways.
	An example, Harvard invited, I don't know if you know this, I'm looking at my Harvard student here, Julie Hartman, who's been on the show a number of times, who sat in for me amazingly.
	That's how much I respect her.
	And did you know that Harvard invited Alexander Solzhenitsyn to give a lecture there?
	It is one of the greatest speeches of the 20th century.
	Look it up.
	They would never invite him to Harvard today.

	First, and it ties into the question quickly, sir, is that the Russian collusion stuff was never believable from the outset.
	The first time I heard it, I thought it was ridiculous.
	And the one-sixth stuff.
	Why are Republicans so unwilling to just admit things that seem obvious An insurrection.
	You have an insurrection with no weapons.
	There's Russians coming over here, and that's the reason President Trump was elected.
	Is it cowardice, or do you just think it's Trump hatred from the establishment?
	Well, that's a very important question.
	I have dealt with the problem of Republicans not fighting for nearly all my adult life.
	I have a few thoughts about that.
	First of all, it's better today than ever in my lifetime.
	More Republicans are fighting, both politicians and laypeople, than ever before.
	And it's actually stunning.
	So, I want to make something clear.
	There is something I differ with some of my colleagues whom I truly esteem, and that is, I do not bash the Republican Party.
	I agree with Ronald Reagan.
	That the 11th commandment is, thou shalt not attack a fellow Republican.
	And the reason is not because of party loyalty.
	It is because I know that the left is destroying America, and the only opposition in politics is the Republican Party.
	So before we attack Republicans, some of whom are worthy of it, Mitt Romney and others, before we do, We need to understand there's nobody else.
	Okay?
	Nobody else.
	The only people opposing the Democratic Party in Congress and in your gubernatorial elections in whatever state you live are the Republicans.
	The Republicans are the dyke holding back the floodwaters of the left.
	So I'm very careful about just smearing the Republican Party.
	However, the question is legitimate.
	Bob Dole was a beautiful human being, and he was worthless in the fight against the left.
	Literally worthless.
	The same with most of the Republicans.
	John McCain was worse than worthless.
	Would side with them to show how bipartisan he was.
	Another wonderful human being, a hero of the United States.
	There is a reluctance on the part of nearly all decent people to fight bad people.
	That's what it is about.
	Make nice is much easier than fight.
	Fight means you make enemies.
	Nobody likes enemies.
	But you can't do any good on earth if you don't make enemies.
	It is not possible to do good and not have enemies.
	It is not possible.
	It is like dry water.
	It is not possible.
	And the Republican Party has been largely composed of people who want to make nice.
	They have been a tepid alternative to the Democratic Party.
	But I do want to remind people that Mitch McConnell, whom people love to attack, and there are reasons on occasion to attack him, was the man who made it possible in many ways for us to have finally a court that had people who would take the Constitution seriously.
	Who believe that the authors of the Constitution should be taken seriously.
	Their sentiments, their words should be honored.
	The living Constitution, it only means there is no Constitution.
	Do you understand that?
	Living Constitution is a euphemism for no Constitution.
	Living Constitution means I am alive, I will say what I want the Constitution to say.
	That's all it means.
	It means nothing else.
	It's a fraud, the concept.
	There is no difference between, quote, the living constitution and none.
	There is no difference.
	Living constitution means you make it up.
	Screw Madison.
	Screw Jefferson.
	Screw the founders.
	I know better for America than the giants who made the constitution.
	There is no arrogance like left-wing arrogance.
	Including Trump, who is arrogant.
	There is no arrogance like left-wing arrogance.
	And most Republicans are just not willing to acknowledge this.
	Ron Johnson fights.
	Ron Johnson's a special guy.
	And Lindsey Graham is an interesting person.
	I know there's a lot of people attack him a great deal, and every politician is worthy of criticism at times.
	They have a very difficult job.
	But I honor Lindsey Graham just for his speech after Judge Kavanaugh was smeared by the Democrats, who were pure evil in that instance.
	What he said that day was worthy.
	of greatness. - Yes. - Yes. - Yes. - Yes. - Yes. - Yes.

	Southwest was devastated this week.
	Straight up lying, talking about it was the weather.
	The reason why 2,000 flights were canceled over the weekend, Friday through Sunday, and then over 300 or nearly 400 more on Monday.
	But the truth of the matter is, a lot of these people just caught out sick.
	They just caught out sick.
	They've been threatened by their employer because their employer happens to be a federal contractor.
	And because of that...
	Because the federal government has their hands in Southwest Airlines, they have to comply.
	Now, here's the news.
	Nothing has happened as of yet.
	So technically, Southwest Airlines does not have to comply right now.
	They can wait for OSHA to make whatever edict they're going to lay out that has not been done thus far.
	But nonetheless, they suspect that it is coming down the pike.
	You get all these pilots, 10,000 pilots, 60 to 70% of these pilots are men and women that fought for our freedom, and we're going to kick them off the freaking job.
	Can you imagine the disruption?
	You talk about, we look at the ports in California.
	Can you imagine the supply chain disruption?
	If now we can't even unload cargo ships, and we're going to have fewer and fewer pilots?
	Fewer trained pilots?
	I don't want to fly.
	I don't know if they're going to be like United Airlines and bring social justice warrior pilots on.
	I don't even want to fly.
	Listen, if you're a pilot, I don't care if you're pink, red, white.
	I want the best doggone pilot when I'm sitting up in that can 30,000 feet above the ground.

	I have never seen in my life the orchestrated hatred to a group of Americans as I am seeing now.
	It's orchestrated hatred.
	You are allowed to hate The unvaccinated.
	Even if the unvaccinated had COVID already, and there is no scientific reason whatsoever for them to take as minimal a risk as it is, the vaccine.
	You are to hate these people.
	They are killers.
	They are killing you and themselves.
	This is this piece of crap.
	I hope the American people can see through this jam.

	You had no intention of protecting Dr. Ford.
	None.

	God, I hate to say it, because these have been my friends.
	Alright, yes, this was some speech in response to the man asking about Republicans.
	I never want people to lose perspective.
	Do you know, if I had to list, maybe I'll do this once, list my ten favorite words in English, perspective is one of them.
	I have a chapter on perspective in my book on happiness.
	You can't be happy if you don't have perspective on life.
	You can't achieve any wisdom if you don't have perspective.
	Conservatives who just lambast the Republican Party have lost all perspective.
	Have they not voted unanimously?
	To support bills during the Trump administration, whatever you could say, I mean, by and large, almost every single Republican, if not every single one, during the Trump administration, many of whom were not fans of Donald Trump, are they not in opposition now, united against the left?
	Is there any instance that you could think of, with the exception of Liz Cheney, perhaps?
	That you would not vote for a Republican over a Democrat?
	Give me an example of where you would do that.
	So it's worth keeping things in perspective.

	We got a little problem there.
	Oh, yes.
	My question was, as I put it directly to the screener, was why you're so consistently un-American when claiming you're all-American?
	Can you give me an example of my being un-American?
	Okay.

	Public schools stink.

	Well, it's talking about being American.
	Let's say I did join.
	Would you then not call?
	Well, then you'd have more credibility with me.
	Okay.
	That's an interesting theory.
	So, the only people who could speak about the military are those who served in it.
	Hmm.
	I don't know why.
	Isn't the American view that it is a civilian who is supposed to be in charge?

	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 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.

	Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here.
	It's a year ago, January 6th.
	January 6th was a lamentable act.
	I condemned it when it happened.
	It is unworthy of the attention, let alone the Orwellian term, insurrection.
	It's worthy of note that not a single participant has been actually charged with insurrection.
	The first unarmed insurrection in modern history, I might say.
	People posing, what was it?
	What was the guy wearing again?
	What was the guy wearing?
	Oh, is the Viking helmet sitting at Nancy Pelosi's desk, right?
	In her office?
	Is that the same guy?
	Okay.
	that's an insurrection our despicable president I've never used the term with regard to a president in my long career.
	Joe Biden's a despicable human being.
	And he is...
	Not only the worst president, he's the worst man to serve as president.
	He's a bad human being, in my opinion.
	And dagger at democracy.
	Dagger at the throat of democracy.
	Who wrote that for him?
	What left-wing hack.
	This is exactly what the left has always done, just as the fascists on the right have done, and the Nazis did.
	That is, you accuse your enemies of what you're doing.
	It's a smokescreen.
	It's not projection.
	That it is as well, but it's not primarily projection.
	It's a smokescreen.
	I can ruin this country while charging my enemies with ruining the country.
	That is what you do.
	Who is suppressing free speech, the most important freedom of all?
	The left or the right, Joe Biden?
	Who has created a hatred of...
	Tens of millions of Americans like you have toward the unvaccinated.
	Is there a precedent for the way you have described vast numbers of Americans who in good conscience have not been vaccinated?
	It's not even a vaccine, by the way.
	You know that the dictionaries have changed the definition.
	CDC changed it.
	I read it for you earlier this week.
	For all of vaccination history, it prevented you getting the illness.
	Now, I think it's changed to protect, or whatever words they have now used, or minimize the consequences if you get it.
	How long does the vaccine now last?
	Six months?
	Is that the current belief?
	In Israel, they're giving a fourth shot.
	It's all within one year.
	But this has no effect on people.
	There's no harm in all of this, right?
	None.
	It's safe as drinking water.
	That's what we're told.
	Basically, what the Democrats have done to Election Day, There was once in America, I grew up with an election day.
	There's now an election month.
	Election day has been destroyed.
	The left has destroyed election day.
	Dagger at the heart of democracy?
	There's an example of a dagger at the heart of democracy.
	Oh, at the throat.
	Sorry, you're so right.
	Dagger at the throat.
	That's an important distinction.
	I agree.
	Let's send ballots to every name on lists.
	Let's harvest them.
	Everything is an invitation to the corruption of Election Day.
	If I were a senator, I would push for the end of early balloting, certainly within, let's say, earlier than three days.
	Election Day doesn't mean anything anymore.
	They want to destroy the Electoral College, which, by the way, is not democratic, because we were not founded to be a democracy, because the founders predicted 2020 and 2021 and 2022. The mob rules.
	They knew you don't ever trust the great multitudes.
	They did not want to.
	Great decisions made by majorities.
	Any great decision.
	Isn't that interesting?
	That's not the way this place was set up.
	It was set up to prevent the great multitudes from dominating.
	The tyranny of the majority.
	That's exactly what it was set up to avoid.
	The U.S. Senate is not democratic.
	There are two senators from Wyoming and two senators from California.
	That has nothing to do with democracy.
	It's a republic.
	They hate that because they want the mob to rule.
	A few people blow the whistle on the mob.
	Not many.
	It takes a lot of courage to do that.
	It's better to...
	Work for the New York Times and be a sheep, a coward, and a liar than it is to leave the New York Times and be courageous and a truth-teller.
	Ask Barry Weiss.
	She left the New York Times.
	You know that they, like this, it's in the, what did Lennon call it?
	The trash heap of history?
	Where things just didn't happen?
	The Orwellian memory hole?
	The New York Times editor who was fired because he published a Republican senator.
	Yeah, happened last year.
	That's down the memory hole.
	Look up that one.
	Times editor fired, I think it was Senator Cotton.
	Isn't that amazing?
	He had the audacity to allow a dissenting voice onto the opinion pages of the New York Times.
	Which are indistinguishable from the news pages of the New York Times.
	Dagger at the throat of democracy.
	Yeah.
	But none of them had daggers.
	None of them had guns.
	It was essentially, for the vast majority of them, it was a cathartic experience.
	If somebody had invited me to go in, I wouldn't have gone in.
	I wouldn't enter a federal or state building without permission.
	That's what should have been followed that day.
	What do you gain, exactly?
	However, they had the precedent of all these leftists taking over state capitals.
	Remember years ago?
	Not that long ago.
	When leftists took over the state capitol in Madison, Wisconsin?
	Was that an insurrection?
	Was anybody prosecuted?
	They stayed there for weeks, if I'm not mistaken.
	Look it up.
	State capitol, Madison, Wisconsin.
	Takeover.
	Anything happen?
	Zilch!
	So...
	January 6th is a smokescreen like the Nazis used the Reichstag fire.
	That's all it is.
	Okay?
	Half this country knows that.
	Half this country doesn't.
	And as the French say, c'est la vie.
	That is life.
	Well, on other matters, my friends, talking about courage in the media, Let's see.
	I really...
	I'll have to find it.
	A woman at the CBC, a major figure at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, has resigned.
	And we're going to try to get her on the air.
	I remember interviewing Stephen Harper, the former Prime Minister, the last Conservative Prime Minister of Canada, came to a PragerU event, and I had a dialogue with him.
	And he said, I'll never forget it, he said, the CBC is much worse than CNN. And I thought, how do you get worse than CNN? But anyway, it was an interesting observation, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
	And so a very high-ranking woman at CBC has blown the whistle on that.
	I'll have more about that.
	Oh, wait a minute, I think I do have it.
	Yeah.
	Daily Mail, January 4th.
	What is today?
	Of course, it's the 6th.
	A veteran Canadian Broadcasting Corporation journalist has announced that she's quit the company due to quote-unquote woke policies implemented by senior staffers that hindered her ability to do her job.
	Tara Henley made the stunning claim in a strongly worded piece posted to the online writing platform Substack.
	In her write-up, Henley, who worked as a TV and radio producer and occasional on-air commentator for the broadcast giant, slammed CBC brass for what she called a radical political agenda that originated on Ivy League campuses in the United States.

	We're not Canada, we're not Sweden, we're not Germany.
	I would say that even under lawful elections where it was close but you lost, the incoming administration would say, you know, we don't really have a mandate.
	Normally people would say, I've got to deal with this closely divided group.
	I can't do...
	Great, big, dramatic things.
	This group has come in and said, we are going to go as hard to the left, as hard to progressivism, as hard to socialism, as hard to communism as we can, as fast as we can.
	We are going to go as hard to the godless view of everything as fast as we can.
	We are going to empower our enemies and insult our friends.
	We are going to undo everything the previous administration did, not because it's necessarily good for the country, but simply for the fact that the previous administration did it.
	And where that really came back to bite us in the backside, and I think that where you really start to see the Let's Go Brandon phenomenon is following Afghanistan.
	Because when the previous administration had left an exit plan saying, if you follow these guidelines, make it conditions-based, we can get everybody out safely.
	We can get all of our allies out before we take the military out.
	We can get rid of our equipment.
	We can do all this stuff.
	And because Joe Biden said, I'm not doing any of it.
	And the only reason he said it was because the previous guy did it, and we got 13 Marines killed, and we lost a lot of Americans in the process that are still behind enemy lines even to this day.
	That's when America woke up and said, wait a minute, this isn't right.

	I have a strong desire to be a sheep.
	Everybody has an alternate, you know, like, remember as a kid if you'd be an animal, what animal would you be?
	Right?
	Somehow every kid does that.
	And Julie's taking a picture of me.
	This is a rare picture, I will admit.
	I don't wear one outside.
	I don't wear one at airports.

	I like it, actually.
	There's really something powerful.
	I think it is hard for people to give up.
	But anyway, so the animal that most people want to be is a sheep.
	And that's what I have decided.
	I've recommended that the Canadians substitute a sheep for the maple leaf on their flag.
	I think they want to be sheep.
	There's something comforting.
	You have a shepherd, you're with a lot of other sheep.
	No, I'm not being cute.
	There is comfort in being a sheep.
	Otherwise people wouldn't do it.
	Why would they do what's uncomfortable?
	It is more comfortable to be a sheep than not to be.
	That's obvious.
	I did an hour this week, a really important one.
	All good is done by outliers.
	The non-sheep do all the good.
	Non-sheep do bad, too, as well, by the way.
	There are bad outliers as well.
	I acknowledge that.
	By the way, I misspoke.
	A lot of the people who entered the Capitol...
	Thought that they were doing so legally that many of the police there seemed to be in no way objecting to what they were doing.
	So they thought that it was legal.
	They were not carrying on, the vast majority of them.
	Dagger to the throat of democracy is said by the biggest liar to ever occupy the White House.

	He lied about what happened to the tragedy.
	I believe it was his wife and child who were killed in an auto accident.
	And he blamed it on the other driver.
	And it was a lie.
	He lies about everything.
	Because there's no voice in Joe Biden.
	What is the right thing?
	The voice is what is the right thing to further my career and to make my family rich while I am a senator or vice president.
	We have really bad people as president and vice president.
	I did not say that about Barack Obama.
	I did not say that about Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter or any of the Democrats who were president in my lifetime.
	He's a bad man.
	And he's hurting this country phenomenally.
	But it's okay.

	I teach trumpet, and since I moved to South Carolina, I started in 2004 teaching on the Internet, so through the COVID stuff, it actually...
	I did better than some people.
	I didn't have gigs to play, but I picked up more students and did great.
	I saw you at a speech.
	Where was it?
	That was at Bob Jones University.
	Oh, okay.
	Wow.
	I can't wait to tell David that you called.
	I'll probably be unfriended by a bunch of people once I figure out what I'm calling you about.
	Your screener probably saw that, or you probably saw what he typed in.
	My girlfriend and I and a group of friends were actually in Washington, D.C. on January 6th, and I took literally about 600 or more photos and videos of everything.
	I didn't go in the Capitol, but the reason why I was calling is it's so upsetting to listen to the news today and, you know, in the past couple days.
	And hear them misrepresent what it was really like.
	And I can tell you a few things that are constantly misrepresented.
	Like, for example, the size of the group, I estimate, was probably around 2 million.
	Because the 56 acres out in front of the White House was completely packed.
	I was in the overflow area around the Washington Monument, which is bigger than 56 acres.
	So my estimate...
	Is that it was probably about 2 million people.
	And the crowd was the most diverse group of people.
	And it almost felt like going to a church retreat or something like that.
	It was really kind of weird how friendly everyone was.
	And I saw black people, Chinese people, Vietnamese people.
	I saw the Israeli flag.
	I saw the Iranian flag.
	I saw gay people with the gay, whatever, pride flag.
	I saw a cross-dresser, or what do you call them, like a drag queen for Trump.
	And even after, like, we didn't go in the Capitol, and we were actually eating lunch up the street, right across the street from Trump's hotel.
	And our friends back in Greenville started texting us that people got inside the Capitol.
	So we were like, whoa, what do we do?
	And my girlfriend was like, let's go, let's leave.
	It's dangerous.
	And I'm like, hold on, let's finish lunch.
	I want to go take some pictures.
	So we walked up the street, and I don't think it lasted more than maybe like 30 minutes or so with the main part of it.
	We were halfway through lunch.
	By the time we finished up and walked up the street, it was basically a bunch of people disbanding.
	And I still took more pictures, but we thought that we were going to go home and drive like eight and a half hours back to Greenville.
	We drove like all night to get up there in the morning.
	And the mayor shut down the city, and so we went over with some friends that had a hotel, and we hung out in a bar and talked to people.
	I spoke to five people that had gotten in, and one guy that changed his mind about going in, and they all said they didn't see any guns, no one had weapons, there was no plan.
	All right, listen, I could talk to you about this for an hour, obviously, and I thank you.
	Send me an email, and this is a very touching thing for my son's trumpet teacher from 30 years ago.
	And about the report there.
	The first armless, weaponless insurrection in modern history.
	Another lie of the left.

	Dennis Prager here, and Larry in Inglewood, California.
	Hello.
	Hi, Dennis.
	Yes or no, Dennis, have vaccines for the coronavirus been beneficial to the health of the world?
	Yes or no?
	I'm sorry.
	Sean was talking to me for a moment, because I have a guest, so I took your call by accident.
	But it doesn't matter.
	I'll answer you.
	I didn't hear at the beginning of what you said.
	I said yes or no, sir.
	I have vaccines for the coronavirus.
	I believe so.
	Because they probably hurt young people.
	Wait, do you want me to answer?
	If you want to continue, that's fine.
	But if you ask a question, you have to allow the person to answer.
	I don't promote it to young people.
	I think it's child abuse.
	I think if you give your child a vaccine, you are more likely to hurt your child than help your child.
	If you give it to a fat 75-year-old with diabetes, it will probably help.
	And would you agree that 70% of the people that are hospitalized and are dying are unvaccinated?
	No.
	I think we get more lies from the CBC than truth.
	CDC. That isn't the CDC, that's Johns Hopkins University.
	Right, but that's not the claim in Israel and other countries.
	America's an outlier.
	This claim, Fauci's a liar.
	See, you're asking me different questions.
	The vaccines help some people.
	I'm sorry, say it again.
	Isn't that okay to ask questions on your show?
	That's why I put you on.
	Thank you.
	Alright, you're welcome.
	All right, fair enough.
	All right, everybody.
	Professor of Philosophy at DePaul is Jason Hill.
	His new book is What to Do White Americans, O Black People, Racial Justice in the Age of Post-Depression.
	Professor, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show.
	Thanks very much for having me.
	I wasn't sure you'd want to stay out after hearing that exchange.
	I get quite involved with callers, and whenever I see somebody who doesn't agree with me, I have a Pavlovian response.
	So tell me, first of all, I love the subtitle, Post-Oppression.
	I think I'm going to, I will cite you.
	It is a conviction of mine to cite the source of a quote.
	What do you mean by that?
	I mean that since the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which was the third founding of this great Republic of Ours, that we have been living in a post-oppressive age as far as blacks are concerned.
	I go into great detail in the book in describing why I think the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which brought blacks within the full domain of the ethical, the full pantheon of the human community, and brought them full legal standing before the law.
	Was the third founding of a republic, was the moment that ended legal oppression for blacks.
	Now, short of a bloated totalitarian state, there's nothing more that the state can do for blacks.
	The 1972 Employment Act and the subsequent affirmative action programs that followed the 1964 Civil Rights Act were the reparative moments that were issued to blacks in this country.
	It's not that there are not individual cases of racism in this country.
	There are always going to be psychotic idiots, which is what racism is.
	There's always going to be anti-Semitic people, individuals.
	But in terms of an official ideology of white supremacy, in terms of official oppression against blacks, that ended with the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which illegalized racism and issued what I call in my book,
	A moral eugenics program which sought to change the sensibilities of white people into making them non-racist by saying that you cannot use your private property as an extension of your living room or as an extension of your own identity and made it illegal.
	That is what I mean by post-oppression.
	So that's de jure.
	Let's talk de facto.
	I think you'll find this of interest.
	On many occasions, black callers would call me and tell me, Dennis, you don't walk in our shoes.
	You don't realize how much racism we experience on a daily basis.
	And then say, look, I'm black.
	I experience racism every day.
	And so it's very interesting.
	So I always had the same response.
	I said, okay, since you experience it every day, tell me what happened today.
	And 100% of the time, well, not today.
	Okay, so fine.
	Yesterday.
	And so, there isn't one.
	So I want you, as a black himself, to answer the question of, is there daily or weekly or monthly racism in the life of an American black?
	This is Professor Jason Hill.
	The book is What Do White Americans Owe Black People?
	And I want to remind you of a product that I asked to advertise because it was so effective with me.
	I have tingling in an extremity, in my case feet.
	Some people have hands.
	If you have tingling, numbness, try it for two weeks for free, and you get a year money-back guarantee if it doesn't work.
	Advocate it strongly.
	Go to TryNerveRenew.com That's
	why that notebook should never fall into the wrong hands.
	Shall we stop this thing?
	Save the universe!
	Save the universe!
	I was under a constant attack.
	You're not really black because you're not doing what we expect black people to do.
	This is the wrong black guy.
	He has to be destroyed.
	So you'd still like to serve on the Supreme Court?
	I'd rather die than withdraw from the process.

	music How buoyed 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 if if Glenn loses by three points, you know, that's a big, big deal in any other normal election.
	And.
	Jason Hill is a professor of philosophy at DePaul University.
	He has a book out, What Do White Americans Owe Black People?
	Racial Justice in the Age of Post-Depression.
	You can watch him, by the way, and watch me at Salem News Channel.
	Get the app.
	You can watch all the shows and see all the guests.
	So, Professor, I was telling you prior to the break about The number of black callers in my career who've told me that they experience racism on a daily basis.
	What is your reaction to that?
	Well, Dennis, I wouldn't want to discount the experiences that people have in their lives.
	However, I will say that it has become very, very fashionable to commit hyperbole in that respect.
	That is, every single slight or perceived slight.
	From a white person touching a black woman's hair and saying, you have nice, I love your hair, I love your hair, or asking certain questions about a person's past, like where are you from, is now perceived as racism because we have a new narrative issued from the likes of people like Ibram Kendi and D'Angelo and Ta-Nehisi Coates that make it possible for all sorts of actions.
	to be interpreted as egregious forms of harassment or racism so victimology pays today and I think there are any number of interactions between blacks and whites that occur in which I wouldn't interpret it as racism but blacks have been fed a diet of victimology let's just call it that where it pays to Say that one has been experiencing racism
	and let me say that This is a moment in our history where even if you are a victim of racism It is a time in history where there exists so many opportunities to fight racism Because of the progressive nature of our culture.
	So there in my opinion There is no better time in history if you find yourself being a victim of racism to fight it And you will be rewarded and you will find justice in our courts of law.
	It's funny because you said, you mentioned about the universities have declared, where are you from to be racist?
	I actually think it shows a concern about the person you're talking to.
	I ask everybody where they're from.
	And by the way, in that regard, where were you from?
	I was born and raised in Jamaica and came to America when I was 20 years old, and I've lived here for 36 years now.
	So, what would your, if I may be personal, what would your personal answer be to do you find your general interaction with white people to be one of experiencing racism?
	No, certainly not.
	If I have experienced racism, it's actually been in the academy, coming from the very far left, who've subjected me to all sorts of egregious acts, because as a conservative independent, I do not, I most emphatically do not engage in Americophobia.
	I love this great republic.
	I think there are a lot of idea pathogens that are infecting our country.
	I stand up for...
	I like that term, forgive me, idea pathogens.
	I want to memorize that.
	I'm not an atheist like most academics.
	I believe in God.
	I'm a moral universalist.
	I'm a moral foundationalist.
	I believe in objective reality.
	And I believe in the free market system.
	And I have been punished, cancelled.
	I'm a strong advocate for the state of Israel and believe that Judea and Samaria belong to Israel.
	And I've been punished for my views.
	So if I've experienced any kind of discrimination, it's usually from the far left.
	Paradoxically, the people who stand up, who claim or pray endlessly about caring about the rights of minorities.
	But on a day-to-day basis, I live in Lincoln Park, which is the north side of Chicago.
	I do not experience racism on a day-to-day basis, I can say that.
	My interactions with whites are quite pleasant and courteous.
	I was going to ask you, DePaul has a terrible reputation in my view in any event.
	And so I was stunned to find that you're a professor of philosophy there.
	I mean, I ask this of every conservative professor, all 36 of them in the country, and I ask this especially of conservative blacks.
	How is life for you on campus?
	Are you essentially alone?
	I'm essentially alone.
	I'm persona non grata.
	I have a lawsuit against the university which stemmed from an article I wrote defending then Prime Minister Netanyahu's decision to annex or his proclamations of annexing Judea and Samaria, which are properly the proper indigenous lands of Israel.
	And I was censured in an illegal fashion against the policies of the university.
	So I have a lawsuit against the university on various grounds.
	But I'm an outlier.
	I just want you to know, I mean, this is like the magic word on the old Groucho Marx show.
	You don't know this, but two days ago, I devoted an hour of my show to the proposition that only outliers do good.
	So, it's really, it's fascinating that you would describe yourself as such.
	You obviously are.
	And I salute you from the bottom of my heart and from my conscience.
	So I know I interrupted you, so please continue.
	No, so I think I am an outlier.
	And people say to me often, you know, Jason, where do you get your courage from?
	I don't see it as having courage.
	I just think I'm not brave.
	I'm not...
	I'm not...
	There's a word I want to use, and it's something on the order.
	I'm not brave enough to be a coward or something like that.
	I'm a person of conviction, and I'm a person of principle, and I stand by my convictions and my principles.
	And I think that our great republic, our unprecedented republic, is under attack by these left-wing Marxists who are turning our universities into national security threats and indoctrination centers.
	And I see myself as playing two roles fundamentally as a public intellectual, not as an academic.
	One is to fight for a republic that is under attack by the far left, predominantly.
	And the other?
	And the other is to provide inoculation.
	I love it.
	I will react to you as soon as we come back.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Who wins?
	Now, on the left, they have a hierarchy.
	Not any different than a hierarchy that...
	You'd have in any sort of organization.
	You see, when the left has a moment of disagreement or conflict, it is very important to realize that there is a structure of what matters more than something else.
	I wrote a piece for humanevents.com where I wrote, it was literally called, This Matters More Than That.
	Now, a great example of this...
	Is when Fauci, the lockdown artist, the anti-freedom activist, mad scientist, who is the best example of the technological and scientific elite that the left worships,
	when he was even confronted by a talk show host, where they asked Fauci, they said, so do you think that young people should be Should stop hooking up via Tinder and basically having very promiscuous relationships.
	And Fauci said, well, you have to understand there's some risk to that.
	He didn't denounce it because he understood that if he dared came out against promiscuous behavior for young people, there'd be a revolution.

	I just want to say to Professor Jason Hill, and to say that I will read his book as a given, What Do White Americans Owe Black People?
	Racial Justice in the Age of Post-Depression.
	This is the book.
	It's up at DennisPrager.com.
	It's on the screen now at Salem, at the Salem network here, Salem News Channel.
	I just want to say to you, Professor, that I will remember January 6th as the day I met you. .
	So it will remain etched in my mind.
	I can't tell you how much I revel in meeting courageous people.
	You say you don't think of yourself as courageous.
	I think it's only because it would disturb your sense of humility.
	I know I'm courageous and I even think I'm humble.
	Humility doesn't demand that we deny what is a fact.
	If you're not courageous, then the word doesn't have any meaning.
	But I'm not going to argue with you about whether you're right about your assessment of yourself, which is not generous.
	The question that I have, which I don't know if you can answer, and it is not about your book, It is about this subject which has really preoccupied me all of my life.
	Why do courageous people get courageous?
	I gave a speech a few years ago because people called me a lot.
	They said, you keep talking about courage, Dennis.
	Well, how do you get courage?
	And I finally...
	Gave a speech about six ways to do it, and then my belief is you get courageous if you want to be.
	That's really what it is.
	Anyway, I really hope to promote your work.
	I'm glad I found you, and I want you to know that you will now have properly Great support from outside of DePaul University.

	So don't give me that.
	That's number one.
	I have to tell you, I haven't sat in front of a lot of judges in real time.
	I did it once for a speeding ticket in my life.
	I have watched many trials on TV, real ones.
	I don't think I've ever seen a judge as pissed as that.
	He actually looked, if you weren't watching on the video, he looked infuriated.
	He was jumping up in his seat and he said, don't get brazen with me to the deputy district attorney.
	Look.
	Predictions, it's a mugs game.
	But right now, right now, based upon how the judge is responding to the way that this evil bunch of hyenas are trying to make...
	The fact of the matter is this.

	How do I cross a bridge in a snowstorm?
	What happened?
	Think about it.
	You know, you're in a situation.
	What happens if the bridge collapses and there's a fire on the other side?
	It's going to take 10 miles longer to get to the fire.
	People could die.
	I mean, this is real.
	This is real stuff.
	Now, I recently suggested hashtag snow, storm, fire, bridge, collapse.
	Here I was.
	I worked all day on the president's remarks.
	I found this bit of gold alerting the country to the impending massive cycle of snowstorms, fires, and bridge collapses and trucks that can't get anywhere.
	And I thought to myself, if I let the country know first, I'll get the credit for that.
	If you're driving today, Would you let me know where the snowstorm fire bridge collapse is?
	1-800-52012.
	If you're going across the bridge, we want to hear for you to see if that bridge has indeed caught fire in a snowstorm.
	If you're on any bridge anywhere, or collapsed, and you see a house anywhere burning, stop and help.
	We have many stories of heroes who have done the same thing.
	There was one...
	That's quite a theme you chose there, Sean.
	I want to salute you.
	How many years ago?
	I remember when I incorporated this theme from Gladiator right after 9-11, which has been compared today to last January 6th, because there's no lie that is over the top for people on the left, not liberals.
	Liberals and conservatives tell truth equally.
	Leftist lie.
	All the time, because truth is not a value.
	January 6th was not an insurrection.
	Just to repeat something from the beginning, I will not accept the lie any more than I will that men give birth.
	But if you repeat it's an insurrection and men give birth, you will then believe it.
	The herd believes what the media tell them to believe.
	People don't question.
	Especially the best educated.
	Do you realize the people most likely to believe the media are the well-educated?
	The more you have gone to college and university, the more gullible you are.
	The more malleable you are.
	How's that?
	That's a fact.
	Nobody believes the New York Times and CNN as much as the well-educated.
	So either they really are in tune with truth, or they're the most malleable group around.
	They'll believe anything.
	If the New York Times announced tomorrow vaccines don't work, they would all say vaccines don't work.
	People ask all the time, I got a call here that reminded me of it, I don't know if it's still on the board.

	I never understand why that question matters.

	Okay?
	Make up a name.
	It doesn't matter.

	You know who called the shots?
	The media.

	I'll wait oh I have to talk okay Can't have dead air on radio.
	Where did you get that line?
	What do you know about radio?
	I love dead air on radio because it's dramatic.
	It's like silence in a symphony.
	A lot of composers use...
	They're not scrambling.
	Come on, folks.
	Give me a position.
	That any Democrat holds that the New York Times, CNN, Washington Post don't hold.
	Right, that's exactly right.
	They call the tunes.
	The sheep in the Democratic Party follow the shepherds of the media.
	They will never contradict one another.
	If the New York Times announce tomorrow...
	That all women have hidden penises.
	That would be the position of the Democratic Party next Wednesday.
	Okay?
	That's the way it works.
	Give me a position that universities hold that the Democratic Party doesn't hold.
	The universities and the media call the shots.
	Period.
	End of issue.
	It's irrelevant if it's Biden or Harris or Pelosi or Schumer.

	Biden is a non-issue.
	The man is a nothing.
	He's a corrupt nothing.
	Kamala Harris is a corrupt nothing.
	We have two corrupt nothings.
	But it wouldn't matter.
	Is Adam Schiff anything but a lying nothing?
	No.
	So what difference does it make?
	A Democrat is a Democrat.
	Period.
	End of issue.
	Except Joe Manchin.
	I find this fascinating.
	Who's calling the shots?
	Anyway, I gave you an answer, okay?
	The universities and the media.
	They call the shots.
	There is no position in which they differ.
	You might as well have NPR as president.
	Not FDR, NPR. That's our president, NPR. Alright.
	Insurrection.
	The lie we're living through today.
	Insurrection.
	I got to say, if it was an insurrection, it was the least effective in the history of insurrection attempts.
	Okay, everybody.
	Okay.
	Other things are happening.
	We're living with the gigantic lie that surrounds all of the medical stuff today.
	Firing people who won't take a vaccine that lasts six months.
	In the history of vaccines, answer me this one, folks.
	This is as unanswerable as naming a position the New York Times and Biden differ on.
	Okay?
	Can you name a vaccine in the history of vaccines that lasted six months?
	Tick, tuck, tick, tuck.
	Hmm.
	Quite a vaccine, isn't it?
	Six months.
	A person dear to me, I won't say whom, told me today that he had Omicron.
	He, interestingly, had COVID and double-vaxxed.
	Oh, five months?
	Okay, now it's five months.
	That's right.
	That's cool.
	And in Israel, they're up to four.
	Israel has had more sheep-like behavior than almost any country, but everybody that I have admired has depressed me on this issue.
	Conservatives in Israel, by the way, they don't even have a conservative opposition to the lockdowns in Israel.
	It was a fascinating moment.
	I mentioned this on the air for the first time, I think, this week.
	I was invited by Benjamin Netanyahu's son, Yair.
	Yair Netanyahu has his own podcast, Bright Guy.
	And he invited me to be his guest, obviously via the internet, and video from my home to his studio in Israel.
	He's a big conservative, as his father is.
	And when I was talking, I mentioned the lockdown and vaccines.
	And he said, well, this is one area where conservatives here in Israel and conservatives in America differ.
	And it really took me aback.
	I was shocked.
	But he was right.
	Conservatives in Israel are as pro-shutting down people's lives in the name of health.
	As the left is.
	That's why I wrote my column this week, America Remains the Beacon of Liberty, because we're the only ones with a truly active conservative movement on the face of planet Earth.
	It is only here.
	Nowhere in the world is there anything comparable to talk radio.
	Is there anything comparable to Fox News?
	Is there anything comparable to PragerU?
	To Turning Point?
	To USA, to Daily Wire, to American Greatness, to the City Journal, to American Thinker.
	I mean, there are so many.
	To Breitbart, to The Blaze.
	I mean, I'm always afraid to list them because I'm going to miss some great ones.
	Where outside of the U.S. do you have any of this?
	Nowhere.
	Nowhere.
	The fires of liberty are still burning in this country.
	Half of the country wants to extinguish it, but half doesn't.
	The only question is, will the half that doesn't want to extinguish liberty fight?
	Fighting means coming out of the closet.
	That's all you have to do, and that's a fight.
	Jason Hill is a black professor that I had on last hour.
	What a remarkable man.
	What a remarkable man.
	Black man from Jamaica, 30 years in this country, loves this country, believes in God.
	He's like a total kindred spirit with me.
	Believing in God should give you courage.
	There are a lot of people who think they believe in God, but lack courage.
	But if you fear the New York Times or Facebook more than you fear God, how much do you believe in God?
	This is a very real question.
	Jordan Peterson put this into my brain.
	You can see the dialogue, Jordan Peterson and myself, when he was at a PragerU event a couple of years ago.
	It's a very powerful, powerful hour.
	And he made an impact on me.
	What does it mean to say you believe in God?
	If it has no effect on the way you behave, you're an atheist.
	You don't want to admit it, but you are.
	It's not an accusation.
	It's not evil to be an atheist, but don't fool yourself.
	Thank you.
	All right.
	So, Sotomayor subscribes to this idea that the law needs to bend and shift and change according to the timing and the place, Al Gore put it in his presidential campaign, you know, a living constitution, something that you know, a living constitution, something that moves and has different boundaries at different times.
	Constitutionalists, conservatives, strict constructionists have always said, no, what the founders wrote was what they meant.
	And we need to fully understand and appreciate what the words mean and let the words be the guiding influence of the judgment in terms of what is legal and what is not legal in the days to come.
	So this is and you're going to see headlines coming out of this particular court case, unlike any Supreme Court case we've seen in recent times, because the stakes are so high.
	But let me let me clarify something about what this case means and doesn't mean.
	A lot of people walking around misinformed, even talking to television networks, are talking about how immediately abortion is going to be banned and no one's going to be able to get an abortion and it's just going to go away overnight and all the white male racists that are running this country will have succeeded in making the country in their own image.
	That is completely false.
	If Roe v.
	Wade falls, tomorrow...
	in new york california new jersey a handful of other states you're going to have legal abortion until the cows come home and it may never change in some of those states because Legislatively, you've got a base of population there that have said over and over again, we want this to be legal.
	The problem with Roe is not that states can't have abortion if their population wants it.
	It's that ones who want to restrict it or try to even ban it altogether have been prevented from doing so when that's the will of their population, their people that live there.

	I think you're right.
	Justice Sotomayor was so political in her comments.
	She would like to delay this until the middle of July.
	She'd like to delay it until the day before the election because she thinks there's going to be a revolution.
	I think she's wrong, but the sooner the better from my point of view.
	What do you think?
	Yeah, I think this is probably the last decision they announce.
	I think it's just in keeping with almost a tradition of the biggest ones coming on the last day.
	There are a lot of Democrats who believe that if Roe v.
	Wade is overturned, this mitigates or maybe even completely shifts the midterms of 2022 and that they have a big political benefit from that.
	I'm not sure this actually has that huge an impact in 2022. Let's say it comes down in late June, early July.
	We've seen over decade by decade the number of abortions go down.
	We've seen decade by decade the number of unplanned or unexpected pregnancies go down.
	All general sexual activity is declining year by year.
	All of these are factors that lead to demand to abortions.
	So reducing demand for abortions means that fewer people think about it.
	And I think most people don't think about abortion until they either want one or someone they know wants one or needs one or something like that.
	So in those circumstances, I think come November 2022, whatever the state of the economy is, whatever the state of gas prices, food prices, if the supply chain issues are, You know, crime, the border, what's being taught in our schools, all those things are going to be in the issue environment for 2022. So will the people who care about abortion vote on abortion?
	Yes, absolutely.
	And they always do, year in and year out.
	But Terry McAuliffe put a lot of effort into trying to make this a governor's race or referendum on abortion.
	It didn't shake out that way.
	Let me tell you a word about these guys.
	It's AndrewandTodd.com.
	They're at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.
	I admire them.
	I like them.
	And you should very much be curious if you can get a better rate right now.
	So they have, AndrewandTodd.com, a quick mortgage checkup.
	No obligation whatsoever.
	And they'll level with you.
	You may not need a new loan.
	It may not be worth it.
	But it might be.
	And the rates are going to go up because of inflation.
	We all know that.
	So whether it's a refi, newfi, hi-fi, or wi-fi, I would get in touch with andrewandtodd.com or call 888-888-1172, 888-888-1172, andrewandtodd.com.
	I really need to do an Ultimate Issues Hour on that subject I ended the last segment on.
	Do you really believe in God?
	If you fear Facebook more than God, do you really believe in God?
	And I'm basing it on the wonderful man that I had earlier, this courageous black professor at DePaul University, which, like almost every university in this country, I wish were worthless.
	If they were worthless, I wouldn't have...
	The antipathy I have to the universities.
	They're harmful.
	They're not worthless.
	They're worse than worthless.
	I literally would rather you flush down your money, flush it down a toilet, than give the money to a university.
	Obviously, there are a couple of exceptions, but very few.
	You know how many conservatives give millions of dollars to universities?
	It's part of the naivete, the shell in which many conservatives have lived, many Republicans.
	That's how we produce nominees like Mitt Romney and Bob Dole and John McCain.
	These people live untouched by the damage the left does.
	Like America is still the America of the Dwight Eisenhower years.
	Nevertheless, as I made the point earlier, and I campaigned for McCain, I have a picture of John McCain and me.
	I look at it with a wry smile.
	I campaigned for all of them, because any Republican is better than any Democrat.
	But nevertheless...
	There's a lot of weakness on this side.
	People don't like to fight.
	I don't like to fight.
	Not at all.
	I'd rather be writing my Bible commentary all the time.
	Oh, by the way, that is a reminder.
	I have two books coming out this year.
	Big ones.
	Third volume of my Bible commentary late in the year for Christmas and Hanukkah.
	The Rational Bible.
	The third volume.
	And I have coming out in March.
	Hugh Hewitt was kind enough to call in about this.
	Recommending it to Christians.
	And obviously to Jews.
	And that is the rational Passover Haggadah.
	And it is meant to be as life-transforming as my Bible series.
	It is an explanation of the oldest ongoing ritual.
	In religious life in this world.
	The Passover Seder.
	So both are pre-orderable at Amazon.
	The Rational Passover Haggadah and the Rational Bible Deuteronomy.
	I heard Costco order 35 or 25,000 copies of Deuteronomy and I thought, that is something I'm proud of.
	If I can get a Bible commentary into Costco, that's an achievement.
	Yep.
	Mayo Clinic fires 700 workers over vaccination mandate.
	You know, it's interesting.
	I mentioned the Mayo Clinic years ago, before COVID. I said, why do they lie on their website?
	I mean, lie.
	That's a very big charge.
	They say that cigar smoking is as dangerous as cigarette smoking.
	That is a lie.
	That is a bald-faced lie.
	It's as much a lie as two and two is five.
	But that should have been a signal.
	By the way, the whole issue of secondhand smoke was a signal that there was corruption in the medical profession.
	I said this from, I'd say, 30 years ago.
	You know why they started the second-hand smoke campaign?
	Because they weren't getting far with the cigarettes are dangerous or tobacco is dangerous to you.
	So they made up, you're killing people.
	It's like the unvaccinated are killing people.
	Second-hand smoke is killing people.
	And Americans believed it.
	That's right.
	That's what they believed.
	Yeah, even if you're vaccinated, the unvaccinated is killing you.
	And, by the way, I reported to you that at the South Pole, in the middle of winter, now it's summer there, but in the middle of winter, there were, I think, 16 people there, or 12 people, whatever it was, and they all got COVID. All were vaccinated.
	How did that happen?
	I guess it wore out after six months or five months, whatever it is.
	Secondhand smoke, according to the medical authorities of this country, killed 50,000 Americans a year.
	And most Americans believe it, because they believed the medical profession.
	That was my clue, but I didn't take it far.
	I just thought they lied about that.
	Now I realize they lie about a tremendous amount.
	That ivermectin is dangerous is a lie.
	It's just a lie that cigars are as dangerous as cigarettes is just a lie.
	So when I read about the Mayo Clinic firing its people that it needs desperately because of Omicron and because just people are worn out in the health care system, it didn't matter to the folks who run the Mayo Clinic.
	At Hot Air, the guy writes, I'm so old I can remember when first responders and healthcare workers were the heroes of the pandemic.
	It doesn't take long to go from hero to goat these days, not even in the middle of a personnel shortage in the healthcare industry and a spike in transmissions that clearly include vaccinated people.
	Mayo Clinic fired 700 of its workers last night for failing to get vaccinated according to its mandate.
	Mayo Clinic now confirms it fires 700 employees on Tuesday who did not comply with its policy.
	While Mayo Clinic, this is their statement, while Mayo Clinic is saddened to lose valuable employees, we need to take all steps necessary to keep our patients, workforce, visitors, and communities safe, the clinic said in a statement.
	So I have a question.
	Until Tuesday, were they all...
	rendered unsafe by the presence of the unvaccinated?

	But about the Biden issue about the crash, twice publicly at least, that he said that it was a...
	A drunk driver who killed his wife, his first wife, and their daughter.
	Just read to you from The Sun just last year.
	Let's see here.
	Delaware Superior Court Judge Jerome Herlihy, who oversaw the police investigation as chief prosecutor, said there was no evidence supporting Biden's claim and Dunn was cleared of any wrongdoing.
	The rumor about alcohol being involved by either party, especially the truck driver, is incorrect, Hurley, he said, in 2008. I'm unaware of, I know Biden has finally apologized, apparently to the daughter, who's an older woman now, but has never publicly retracted it to the best of my knowledge.
	Anyway, so much for that.
	1-8-Prager-776.
	I'm going to clear up some lines here, and I apologize to all of you whose calls that I have not...
	I don't know about the ADF and the people in the jail.
	The gentleman is asking that question.
	And, let's see, Bob Point Pleasant, New Jersey.
	Trump never proved fraud.
	Makes January 6th look worse.
	Well, all right.
	I have written, and many others have, I'm agnostic.
	I truly am.
	I don't know whether...
	There are two questions.
	Was there fraud perpetrated by Democrats, and did it shape the election?
	I believe there was fraud.
	I don't know whether it shaped the election.
	I regard Joe Biden as the President of the United States.
	I'm sure it's disappointing to some.
	I broadcast so that you will know what I think, and that's the only criterion I can use, not how will it be received.
	On the other hand, I've made the point that if I were a Democrat and believed that I was stopping a fascist, racist, anti-Semitic, hate-filled, Would-be dictator from being elected?
	Of course I would cheat.
	Who wouldn't?
	What moral person would not stop a fascist from taking over America?
	Right?
	You can't have it both ways.
	You can't claim, oh, we would never cheat, and also claim at the same time, oh, but Trump is a dictator.
	Trump is a fascist.
	Trump will destroy American democracy.
	But I wouldn't cheat.
	Well, you're an idiot.
	It's like saying if somebody came to shoot you, you wouldn't shoot him first.
	Of course you would.
	At least if you think clearly.
	It's amazing to me that I have not heard this point raised.
	I wrote a whole piece on it.
	It's on the internet.
	There's a Jewish slash Hebrew word.
	That even Jews who know no Hebrew know almost all Jews certainly until the present have known mitzvah.
	Mitzvah literally means commandment.
	Mitzvah is a commandment.
	But it also means good deed.
	But it means both.
	It's a good deed that you should do.
	It's a very, very commonly used phrase.
	It's a mitzvah to cheat to stop a fascist.
	I believe that.
	If I were in Germany in 1933 and could somehow subvert the election of the Nazis, of course I would.
	So, either stop calling Trump a dictator and fascist and racist, or admit that any Democrat who could would cheat to stop him.
	Okay?
	So, since they truly believe their lies, it took me a lifetime to ask, do the left believe their lies?
	I think they do.
	I think they believe he's a dictator.
	There is zero, zero evidence of that, but I think they believe that.
	So, if you do believe that, wouldn't you do anything you could to stop it?

	I was talking to you about Major CBC, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, broadcaster, journalist, A senior staffer.
	And she just resigned to CBC because the place has turned woke.
	Those of us on the inside know just how swiftly and how dramatically the politics of the public broadcaster have shifted.
	Tara Henley, that's her name, she said, detailing a woke worldview-obsessed newsroom.
	Hopelessly hindered by company-evoked policies.
	For months now, I've been getting complaints about the CBC, the producer revealed in the hard-hitting write-up.
	People want to know why, for example, non-binary Filipinos concerned about a lack of LGBT terms in Tagalog, Filipino language, is an editorial priority for the CBC. When local issues of broad concern go unreported.
	They had that?
	Filipinos concerned about a lack of LGBT terms in Tagalog?
	I believe it.
	When I started at the National Public Broadcaster in 2013, she went on, the network produced some of the best journalism in the country.
	By the time I resigned last month, it embodied some of the worst trends in mainstream media.
	Henley added, she used to be the one furthest to the left in any newsroom, unquote.
	But when confronted with the company's rapidly changing ideals, which she says, they have a lot of typos in Daily Mail, formed in the past 18 months, she quickly became, quote, the most conservative.
	Now do you understand, those of you who differ with me, about my making a distinction between liberals and leftists?
	The more we make this distinction, the more we invite liberals to join us in fighting the left.
	If we lump every liberal in with the left, and it is true, they make the left possible.
	It is only because of liberal votes that the left comes into power.
	I couldn't agree more.
	Liberals are useful idiots and regarded as such by the left.
	Because they have contempt for everything liberals believe, like in racial integration, capitalism, Israel, etc.
	However, it is critical to make that distinction.
	We invite liberals to join our war for America against the left.
	If you love liberalism, join us.
	We only differ on one thing, liberals and conservatives, and that is the size of government, which, I might add, is huge.
	I couldn't agree more.
	This country is the only one in the history of the world founded on the principle of limited government.
	The bigger the government, the more the corruption and the less the freedom.
	That is a fact.
	There is no exception to that fact in human history.
	When you consolidate power in a few people's hands, You are inviting corruption.
	You're not just inviting, you are creating it.
	For the past three and a half years, the state-funded company has been run by Chief Executive Catherine Tate, 64, the firm's first female CEO, who succeeded long-time leader Hubert Lacroix in April of 2018. In other words, the CBC has gone even further downhill under the leadership of a woman.
	Female leftists are disproportionately crushing this country.
	Whether they are teachers, professors, activists, heads of diversity at universities and companies, a disproportionate number of people on the left crushing this country are female.
	So much for the idiocy that the world would be better if it was run by women.
	Look at the CBC. It got run by a woman and it got run down the tubes.
	Are there crappy men?
	Of course.
	But most crappy men express their crappiness through violence or sexual ways.
	Women express their crappiness through controlling of others and through the shattering of rules.
	Because rules go against the female yearning to nurture.
	Nurture beats rules.
	Rules are not nurturing.
	To work at the CBC is to submit to job interviews that are not about qualifications or experience, but instead demand the parroting of orthodoxies, the demonstration of fealty to dogma.
	Well, she's good.
	We're going to have her on if she was willing to come on.
	It is to become less adversarial to government and corporations.
	She's got it right on the...
	Hit the ball out of the ballpark.
	Hit the nail on the head.
	And any other cliche I could come up with.
	That's exactly right.
	Less adversarial to government and corporations.
	That's right.
	You know what the word for corporate government control of society is?
	Fascism.
	That's the definition, my friends.
	Well, my friend, many of you are listening alone.
	And more hostile to ordinary people with ideas that Twitter doesn't like.
	It is to allow sweeping societal changes.
	Like lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and school closures to roll out with little debate.
	Oh, you can't debate.
	It's misinformation, right?
	I am proud that in April of 2020, I said that the lockdowns were the world's international community's greatest mistake in history.
	Everybody, well, not everybody.
	Most people will realize this.
	as they start to assess the damage, the staggering damage to children and others done by the lockdowns.

	Look for Salem Now in the App Store or go to SalemNow.com It's the only time you can come to Christ when the Spirit of God comes.
	You ever thought of going to seminary?
	It's been a great time.
	Look for Salem Now in the App Store or go to SalemNow.com The Democratic Party somehow has convinced black people that they're the good guys.
	Never mind the skanky history of the Democratic Party.
	That was a party of slavery.
	There is a whole big cottage industry for racism.
	If racism went away, a lot of people would be unemployed.
	The mob during the Minneapolis riots following the death of George Floyd.
	Bunch of white thugs, frankly, burning down the city's traditional black and Asian business.
	They're racist.
	Racist.
	Racist.
	Everything's racist.
	Look for Salem now in the App Store.
	Or go to salemnow.com Hi,
	everybody.
	We should name January 6th, Hyperbole Day.
	The unimpressive person who was Vice President of the United States said this was comparable to Pearl Harbor and 9-11.
	What a cheapening of the suffering and importance of those two days.
	January 6th is important to the left so that it could be used as a smokescreen for their attempt to subvert freedom in this country.
	That's the only real ultimate significance of January 6th.
	That's right.
	Insurrection.
	An unarmed insurrection.
	Most people entering completely peacefully.
	Having no thought of overturning the government?
	How many people entered that building thinking, I'm here to overturn the government?
	Somebody want to answer that one.
	This is what today is, hyperbole day.
	The sheep, known as the media, echoing it.
	And as I pointed out, that's what the left follows.
	This is a question which I find unimportant.
	Who's calling the shots for Joe Biden?
	What's the difference what the answer is?
	Can you name a position that the New York Times or your local university or NPR takes that Joe Biden doesn't take?
	I can't think of one.
	They're against the pipeline.
	He's against the pipeline.
	He listens to whatever left-wing interest group is more loud.
	And that's how we're governed at this time.
	The question, what is good for America, does not occur to him, because nothing he has done has been good for America.
	Opened up our borders, do you realize that?
	Other than Angela Merkel, another fool.
	Who has done that?
	Oh well, my friends, January 6th will pass, but the poor folks who were the first political prisoners in American history, of which I am aware of any large number, will continue to languish, be beaten by guards, be placed in solitary confinement, because a...
	A Democrat runs the Department of Justice.
	It'll be very interesting to see what happens, won't it, if the Republicans win the two houses?
	What will they do?
	Stay tuned.
	It should be a very interesting year.
