Welcome to the Dennis Prager Show.
I am your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for the great Dennis Prager.
Such an honor and pleasure to sit behind Dennis' microphone.
And so anyway, you can call in to the show, 1-8-PRAGER-776.
I want to take the time to thank Dennis for...
For allowing me to sit behind his microphone, trusting me behind his microphone.
Alan Escher and his producer out there in the ether.
Thank you, Alan, for giving me another opportunity.
Sean McConnell, that is in my ear.
Gabe Cassiano has my back right here at AM 950, The Answer.
Orlando.com, 94.9 FM. Suzette is on the lines.
So we've got a bang-up show for you today.
I've been going back and forth.
I've got to be honest with you.
I've been like, Carl, what are you going to talk about today?
What's hitting you?
What matters?
What's important?
And this concept came to mind, embrace opposition.
I spoke about this somewhat on Officer Tatum's show.
I didn't get an opportunity to go into great detail or specificity.
But I do want to talk to you about some of Saul Alinsky's rules for radicals.
Not all of them.
There are 13 of them.
But I want to give you the antidote.
I do believe that we are in a fight for our lives.
I could talk about polls and all of that good stuff to tickle your ears, but I want to talk to the warriors out there that are ready to fight and willing to fight for this country.
This is who this message is geared to today.
We're going to talk about the economy.
We're going to talk about Bidenomics.
We're going to talk about the corruption of the Biden crime family with the big guy, the big boss.
We're going to talk about fake racism.
As you guys may know, some on the left celebrated the 9th anniversary, a pretty sickening thought, of Michael Brown, a black thug that the left pretends is a hero.
I will not tolerate that.
I want to talk about that.
And black thugs are not black heroes.
I want to make that in fact.
I want you to push back and I want you to embrace opposition because the left is throwing absolutely everything at us, those of us that love this country, because they want to destroy this country.
They want to fundamentally transform this country and they are not going to stop.
You have to embrace opposition.
I was reading earlier today, and quite frankly, I don't know all of the details because it was so early.
My brain wasn't quite functioning, but I was trying to get some reading in.
But it was what happened with Issue 1 in Ohio.
In issue one, basically, and I don't know all the details, but it was basically, listen, in order to amend the Constitution of the United States, you know, you have to have a 60% majority in order to amend it.
And that simply didn't happen.
The pro-life movement fell on their heels, so to speak.
And so I read an article from AMAC and just trying to figure out what happened.
And what happened was those that were on the right did not give...
The voters, a clear message.
As a matter of fact, they were almost scared to share their positions.
Their position of pro-life, their position of being small government.
They were very vague.
They were not specific.
Those that were fighting for issue one.
From what I read, and they were scared because the left had already framed them as, oh, you know, they're anti-democratic.
We're pro-choice.
They're not.
They're against women.
And they got so afraid of that narrative instead of embracing opposition and giving the voters something that they could grab onto, something that they could hold onto.
Yes, we support babies.
Yes, we don't want the left wing radicals to come into this state and destroy our state and make it look like Portland, Oregon.
I'll share a story of Andy.
No, I shared this last night on Officer Tatum show, but I want to get back to it.
I want to get back to that.
I'll share that story with you as well.
But they didn't embrace the opposition.
And this is the opportunity, guys.
I got to tell you, we are in a position where we have to embrace opposition.
We can no longer be afraid of the left.
The left is going to hate you no matter what.
I read another column today, and it was a column from USA Today.
What's happening to Ron DeSantis' campaign?
Why is his campaign tanking?
And I'm paraphrasing here.
And I read through the column and I sat there and I thought, man, Ron DeSantis' campaign, in my opinion, are making a huge mistake.
They should be embracing opposition because you have a narrative out there in his campaign that he's going to be swayed by big money donors.
And one of the reasons the big money donors are abandoning Ron DeSantis, because they say the guy is too doggone conservative and he doesn't get it.
And I'm like, whoa.
Whoa!
Okay?
They said, man, he's too conservative when it comes to abortion, when it comes to immigration, when it comes to guns, the Second Amendment.
He's more conservative than Trump.
Doesn't he get it?
And I'm like, dang, if I'm Ron DeSantis, that would be my next campaign ad.
You embrace opposition.
If Ron DeSantis doesn't get that, he's going to lose and he's going to lose bad.
See, one of the benefits that Donald Trump has is he embraces opposition.
Ron DeSantis, frankly, in Florida, has done a great job of embracing opposition.
He did it with this Amendment 4. When felons wanted to vote, he came in and said no to that.
I thought he was going to be a rhino.
Came in and said no to that.
He did amazing things.
He fired these election people right away.
He was embracing opposition.
But for some reason, his campaign ran away from embracing opposition.
You can't do that.
You can't do that.
And many people are flocking to Trump because obviously you've got a deep state that are going after the man, that are persecuting the man.
And one of the reasons why people love him and one of the reasons why people flock behind him is because he seems to embrace opposition.
But the onus is not on Donald Trump and the onus is not on Ron DeSantis to save the United States of America.
And quite frankly, I've got to be honest with you, I've been disappointed in many conservatives because I feel like the more that I listen to conservatives, the more that we, I feel like even conservative, even the conservative movement is getting away from the foundational principles of the United States.
It is we the people.
It is no man that goes before us.
The only man, the only word, the only person, in my opinion, that you should use only before is Jesus.
Nobody else.
So I'm a little disappointed in the conservative movement.
I gotta be honest with you.
But we have an opportunity to save this country, and I love it.
I'm so thankful.
I get depressed.
I'm not gonna lie to you.
There's times where I get depressed, and I'll sit and I'll have conversations with my wife, and I'm just like, I don't.
I'm just so frustrated of where we're at.
I'm not sure if America could come back, no matter what happens.
I'm just sharing my heart with you.
But I just think, you know what, man?
We've just got to dig in and fight.
God created us, every single one of us, for such a time as this.
And we have no excuse except to sit back or to dig in and fight.
I was trying to make a comparison this morning.
I was reading through the differences between an elephant and a rhino, and I had a theme going on in my head.
I threw it out the window.
I threw it out the window because I couldn't make it work.
You know, I wanted to sound clever, but I couldn't make it work.
But I was going to start with this thing.
The Republican Party needs more elephants and fewer rhinos.
And by rhinos, I wasn't intending on...
Being derogatory towards those that are more moderate or anything like that, even though that's what the term is typically used for within the conservative movement, and I've used it myself.
But we have to remember what the hell we're fighting for.
Excuse my French.
We have to remember what the founding fathers fought and died for.
We have to remember what those who fought in the Civil War fought and died for.
We have to have an elephant's memory.
We have to remember what happened.
It happened to us during the COVID lockdowns when tyranny ran amok.
And even some conservatives laid down.
Christian churches, you had synagogues, you had Catholic churches just laid down.
So I was going to go with that theme.
And then I started reading up on the rhino and the rhino has really thick skin, doesn't see well, but it has great smell.
You know, a great smell and they can detect prey or, you know, actually they eat grass, but they have great smell.
So that leads them to find whatever they need to find.
But they have very thick skin.
And I was like, man, you know, maybe we need a combo of the two.
Maybe we need to remember what this country and our foundational principles are about.
Maybe we need to remember the damage that the left has done to us in order to feel motivated to fight against them.
Because I feel like so many in the conservative movement have we've been fighting against each other and not enough arrows aimed at the corrupt Biden family with the big guy, the big boss, Joe Biden.
And I will be I will be talking about that.
But also.
I just figured, you know what?
We need to embrace opposition.
Guys, nobody's coming to save us.
Nobody's coming to save us.
It's going to be us.
It's going to be we the people.
And I got to tell you, if you're counting on one man to save you, I don't know what to tell you.
I don't know what to tell you.
I think that you will be...
Powerful for a minute and gone by next year.
That's not the type of American warrior that we need to fight to save this country.
We'll be back.

The number to call in, 1-8-PRAGER-776.
You know what, guys?
You can fight today.
I'm going to give you an opportunity to fight.
PragerU, August is fundraising month for PragerU.
When it comes to the cultural battle, particularly, in my opinion, they are the juggernaut.
They are the big dogs.
They are fighting a fight.
I think it's a ministry.
I mean, you can go on to PragerU.
You can literally type in a subject, and you can figure out how to not only defend your values and your political bent, if you will.
I mean, you can go on offense.
You learn so much in five-minute videos.
I get so frustrated.
Because I've heard conservatives even say minimize the woke agenda and stuff like that.
And I'm like, man.
And I've said this over several radio shows, so forgive me if I'm boring some of you, but I can't stand when people don't get it.
I really can't.
And I get more frustrated with Republicans than I do leftists or even Democrats because...
I expect Democrats to act like Democrats.
I expect leftists to act like leftists.
As a Christian, I expect non-believers to act like non-believers.
So I don't get all hot and bothered when it comes to my faith if I see a non-believer acting like a non-believer.
It's what I expect.
But when a believer acts like a non-believer, I get...
I get really frustrated.
All of that to say, I think PragerU is a ministry.
And I think it's a ministry worth donating to.
As a matter of fact, I was slacking during the break.
I donated to PragerU.
Now, I am not a rich man, but I am working very hard to become a vilified one percenter.
So, right now, right now, if you go to PragerU.com and donate, your gifts are doubled.
So if you donate $100, that turns into $200.
Maybe you want to donate $75.
Dennis Prager hit a milestone this year.
He turned $75.
Maybe you want to donate $75.
That's doubled to $150.
Maybe you want to donate $500.
That's doubled.
I recognize this.
There's so many things that I'm good at.
There's so many things that I'm not good at.
And so I want to support...
The people that are in the fight, that are doing the things that I am not good at.
PragerU with their videos, with all of the team and the wealth of knowledge that they have.
I know I'm going on and on, but I think it's extremely important.
God help us.
God help us.
Thank you, Jesus, for PragerU.
And I mean that in all sincerity, because we need...
Okay, 833 PragerU.
You can also call 833 PragerU or go to PragerU.com to donate.
But please, we need people to get it.
I get so frustrated with the people that say woke is, you know, that's just trivial.
Again, one of the articles that I was reading this morning about DeSantis, one of the donors said, oh, he's all in, you know, this woke stuff.
I don't want to, you know, he's too conservative and he's into this woke stuff.
I thought he would shift and do this.
And I still hear even conservatives saying, yeah, he can be bought and paid for by donors when the donors are fleeing the guy because of that.
But what's more frustrating to me is when I hear conservatives and Republicans as if we can avoid this.
Again, one of the issues or a couple of the issues in Ohio was a messaging issue where they admitted pro-life, not enough pro-life voters came back out to vote for issue one because Republicans were so weak.
On their messaging in Ohio.
Now, what's happening in places like Ohio, I'm going to tell you exactly what they're doing.
But don't worry.
I'm going to talk to you about how to fight back, too.
Here's the playbook.
Here's the playbook.
Alright, so the playbook is the left cannot beat us without lying, cheating, stealing, or censoring.
Yes, I said it.
The Democrat Party cannot defeat us without lying, cheating, stealing, or censoring us.
They can't do it.
So they're looking at other avenues in which to do it.
One of the ways is the amendment process.
One of the ways is the amendment process.
So the left figures that even red states, because Ohio, a purple state, had been going.
They got a horrible governor, by the way.
I don't know how that guy's a Republican.
But anyway, I don't know what you're doing, Ohio, with that governor.
But anyway, the state was shifting red.
The state was shifting red.
But now with this issue one.
It's a little bit of a setback.
They have another opportunity to get things right, I believe, on November 7th, if I recall correctly.
But the messaging stunk.
Their voters didn't even know what to come out for.
And part of the reason is because Republicans don't embrace opposition.
The left does.
So the left is going to use, in red states, they're going to use this amendment process to make sure that their ideas will continue to advance.
You see Republicans doing that in blue states?
I'm just...
I'm just curious.
Oh, a little bit frustrating.
I must admit, a little bit frustrating.
Nonetheless, I digress.
All right, let me, I don't want to sound like a negative Nelly.
Let me share a story with you, and I want to talk about this.
I talked about it a little bit yesterday on Officer Tatum's show.
I want to share this with you as well, because I think it's a very important story that I don't hear many conservatives talking about, and this is about Andy Ngo.
Andy Ngo is an independent journalist.
I believe he works for the Post Millennial.
But he was independent, you know, just by himself, and he would go out and he would film and he would write about Antifa.
Well, he went to court the other day, and at the conclusion of his civil trial, not only did he lose his civil trial, after people had literally thrown what they call concrete shakes at him on camera.
Thank you, Mr. McConnell.
You can watch it now on salemnewschannel.com.
So they threw literally shakes that were mixed with concrete.
Rocks and concrete.
Do it at this guy.
The guy wasn't ripe for six months to a year.
Afterwards, he sues Portland.
He sued some of the main perpetrators that led this attack against him.
And guess what happened?
Nothing.
Those perpetrators were allowed to walk free.
Even the defense attorney got up in the courtroom and said, I am Antifa.
The defense attorney threatens the jury and says to the jury, I know all of your faces.
I'm paraphrasing.
But essentially that.
So now, Portland is run by Antifa and anarchists.
That's what Portland is run by.
I share that story to share another story with you.
How much time do I have, Mr. McConnell?
Okay, so I share that story.
I'll share this story with you.
And then I'm going to get on to some ways in which we can start kicking some booty.
I hate losing.
Alright?
I just hate losing.
Especially to people that are trying to destroy my country.
I remember years ago when I was a kid, my brothers and I, we got into this tagging phase.
You guys know what tagging is?
If you're in California, you know what tagging is.
But you may not know what tagging is otherwise.
Tagging is just graffiti art, right?
So, you know, we were wannabe gangsters, some of my other brothers and I, and then we got into tagging.
And at some point, I can't recall even if it was me, I think later I wrote my name, tagging name down the street.
But I think one of my brothers and a friend wrote their name in graffiti.
For the first time, my dad came home, and he was a disciplinarian.
He came home one day, and I'm telling you, he would just beat your butt when you did something wrong.
But he reacted differently this time.
He did something that I had never, ever seen before, nor have I forgotten it.
I'm going to tell you what he did after the break, but I got to tell you, as I thought about that story, it made me appreciate America more, and I want to fight for it more.
After I thought about that story this morning, I'll share it on the other side.

Just a reminder, all of August is fundraising month for PragerU.
Your donation will be doubled.
This is a ministry, in my opinion, that fights for the soul of America.
Please donate to PragerU.
I am honestly so thankful.
I literally, not, I don't just learn from PragerU.
I get motivated from PragerU, and I gotta tell you, sometimes when I'm feeling down, because sometimes I feel down in this fight.
I'm not gonna lie to you.
I can...
Flip on a PragerU video, God's to Honest Truth, and I can be like, okay, okay, I get this, I get that.
Someone else is fighting.
I understand something new.
This is how I take the fight at the left or fight to the left.
So they're motivational to me as well.
So please, PragerU.com, you can donate.
Or what's that number again, Mr. McConnell?
833-PragerU.
833-PragerU.
Let me write that down so I don't forget it.
833-PragerU is the number if you want to give them a call instead.
Alright, so now, let me get to this story.
And this is a very short story.
It's not...
It's not major, but for whatever reason, I got up this morning and I was like, man, there was so much stuff.
I actually still had a lot of research left over from Officer Tatum and a forgotten man.
Thank you, forgotten man.
Some of the stuff that I had gotten from him and some other stuff that I was thinking through.
But for some reason, just nothing was really resonating.
Nothing was hitting me hard, and I was looking at the headlines, and it's the same old, same old.
All right, polls and polls and polls.
Whatever.
Okay, I understand.
That's fun, all right?
I get it.
And polls are important.
I think they itch everyone's ears.
Everyone feels great about their candidate.
If you're Donald Trump, you're feeling amazing right now when you consider the polls.
Now, I feel like, listen, it's Donald Trump's race, unless Ron DeSantis has some type of, you know, surgency.
I believe it's a two-man race.
I know there's a signal poll out there that says Vivek Ramaswamy is overtaken in some, but that is a poll that is basically Vivek's poll, so I don't buy into that.
Right now, I really don't care about the polling.
I care about the country.
I care about the country.
Now, that doesn't mean that we don't need a strong leader in.
That's why I love Trump.
That's why I love DeSantis, quite frankly.
It's why I love Larry Elder.
I feel like these are some of the men that have been tried and tested.
Obviously, Donald Trump, like no one else ever, for God's sakes.
The persecution that man has endured is just insane.
There is no doubt about it.
But let me share this story again.
There was graffiti.
At the time we were living in Linwood, California, and there was graffiti on our sidewalk.
And now...
My dad, I didn't even realize that he would see it because, honestly, the graffiti was like a few houses down.
And again, I can't even remember if I wrote something, but I know one of my boys did.
I believe one of my older brothers did, you know, on the concrete.
And I think I may have been that wimp that went and just scribbled my name real tiny just to say, yeah, I did it, you know.
I think that's what I did.
But my dad got home, and I was shocked that he even saw it.
But he saw it.
We were playing basketball in the backyard.
I have five siblings, but there are two other brothers that are close in age to me and they're twins, Richard and Darrell.
And so he called us together as we were playing basketball.
And then you could almost...
I see him shaking, and he was grabbing on to this tree, and we're like, oh my goodness, what is this about?
You know, if he comes in the backyard, he might shoot a couple baskets with you, though that was rare.
Or, you know, when he came in the backyard with us, it would be to put up his equipment, his tools, or to watch a Los Angeles Dodgers game, he would put the TV outside, and we would watch a little bit of the Dodgers outside.
He used to love those moments, and they were rare.
They were rare with my dad, but this time he gathered us together and he looked at us and he asked if any one of us had done that graffiti down the street.
Now, we lied, alright?
Because we didn't want to get our butts to eat.
We lied, but it was the first time ever.
My dad didn't drink, he didn't smoke, he didn't cuss, and I say didn't, he's still alive, but no cussing for the first time.
He cussed.
He said the S word.
He even said the N word.
And he was like, I'd be doggone, basically, if you're going to allow my city and my street to look like this.
It better not be you.
I better not ever see that stuff around.
And I mean, he just went off on this tirade.
And I was just sitting there like, he just cussed.
I just thought he just cussed.
I'm going to tell you how that's relevant today.
Carl Jackson in for Dennis Prager.
We'll be back.
Alright, welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show.
I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Prager.
The number to call in, 1-8-PRAGER-776.
1-8-PRAGER-776.
Tom, Neil, Joe, don't go anywhere.
I promise I'll get to you in just a second here.
Some breaking news.
Thank you, Phil Boyce.
Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Friday he is appointing a special counsel in the Hunter Biden probe, which is going to deepen the investigation of...
Hunter Biden ahead of the 2024 election.
Garland said he is naming David Weiss.
David Weiss, the useless Davis Weiss.
David Weiss, the U.S. attorney in Delaware who has been probing the financial and business dealings of the president's son as a special counsel.
Garland said on Tuesday that Weiss told him that, quote, in his judgment, his investigation has reached a stage at which he should continue his work as special counsel and he asked to be appointed.
Close.
Interesting.
Interesting.
And by the way, this is Joe Biden's business.
All right.
Hunter Biden is a crackhead.
Hunter Biden has no power without Joe Biden.
So we need to be talking about the big guy.
Hunter Biden is just a useful idiot and a family member that his dad is using to enrich himself.
It's really fascinating.
I think Joe Biden is a despicable human being.
I hope he goes down as the most corrupt president in American history, the most hated president in American history.
I really hope that's on his epitaph because he absolutely is, in my opinion.
Alright, so just finishing up with this story, I saw my dad get irate.
My dad, for the first time, at least in front of us, used the cuss word, and he actually used a couple.
He used the N-word, which shocked me.
I was sitting there trying not to move.
I was in such shock, but my dad was sending us a message.
My dad was sending us a message that he had achieved and he had been working on and achieving for us this American dream.
He had nowhere else to go.
So you were going to keep history clean.
You were going to keep his block clean.
He was a painter.
He was a bricklayer.
Self-employed.
We had a home.
A roof over our head.
We didn't have much.
I didn't realize we were poor until I would go different places.
And I'm like, dang, all we have is a basketball.
But it was alright.
He kept a roof over our head.
He kept food in our mouths.
He and my mom, and I love them dearly.
My mom passed when I was young.
My dad, unfortunately, aging.
Just diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
So it's rough.
But I go back and I look at that time and I'm like, man, that was a message.
That was a message.
My dad was telling us, guys, there's nowhere else.
This is ours.
This is ours.
And we're going to keep it nice.
And we're going to keep it clean.
What Andy Ngo experienced in Portland were Americans, quote unquote, that are un-American.
You can't go to Portland.
Don't let the left continue to do this.
Dig in and fight.
You have no place else to go.
None.
None.
And the Republican Party, I'm sorry.
Donor class, whomever, screw them.
I'm sorry.
You donate.
I'm sorry.
I don't feel like any of our candidates should be suffering from donations.
You donate.
I don't care if it's a dollar.
Screw the donor class.
Donate!
We can't be involved in every fight.
Not all of us can run for office.
Not all of us have the talent, the capability, the resources.
Just know what it is that God has called you to do and fight.
Because we have nowhere else to go.
Tom in Glendora, California.
Tom, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show.
You've got the mic.
Hey, thank you, Carl.
I'm a 78-year-old guy, so that makes me a geezer, eh?
Got severe asthma.
I'm a wheezer geezer, Carl.
That makes you wise.
Yeah, it makes me wise?
Yes, yes.
Anyway, you're doing a great job as usual.
You mentioned earlier there's no one man that can save this country, and God, do we need saving right now.
We're on the brink of going down to Satan.
That one person, of course, I know you'd agree, is Jesus.
But that's one point.
My main point in calling, though, we've got to get back to God.
But the people that are on the fence that don't believe in God, if you don't, I pray you do.
But look around you.
You mentioned Portland.
Look at all the disruptive hate in the country.
Who is causing that?
Mainly, it's left-wing.
Devil-loving Marxists, and many of them are Democrats.
So just for selfish reasons, give the Republicans a chance.
We'll get back maybe to something called the Ten Commandments.
You don't believe in them?
Well, look, do you like not to have your house broken into?
Do you like not to be murdered?
Not to be stolen from?
I mean, come on.
Just on practical grounds, the country was great under Trump.
I know Trump has an ego bigger than the Grand Canyon, but he's a good man deep down.
He loves America.
Just forget about his personality, and look at how it was a short three years ago.
We were basically a civil country.
We were obeying God's laws, whether we believed in God or not.
What do you want?
That kind of a virtual paradise or the hellhole that we are stuck in now.
Tom, thank you for the call, and you're absolutely right, but I do have to share something with you, and I feel like the left doesn't care about that.
See, this is what, this fight is different, and this is why I say even some Republicans and conservatives, see, we're arguing about how great the economy was, and it was under Trump.
We're arguing all these things, and they are the right things to argue if we're in 2016. But when it comes to cultural Marxists, when it comes to people that are, quite frankly, many on the left that are evil, when it comes to people that literally aren't even getting information because you still have big tech and the legacy media that is censoring information, you have people that fundamentally, on a moral level, believe that America is evil.
How do you combat that?
You can yell and you can say great economy all day long.
And I'm going to get into some of the...
We're fighting a spiritual battle.
But we have to fight it on a moral basis.
And we have to challenge the left on a moral basis.
We're going to have to be the ones to wake some of these people up.
Because they're not waking up.
And the traditional ways of doing it simply isn't working.
We'll be back.

Go there.
Donate today.
Por favor.
All right.
Let me just share some things with you callers again.
I'll be going to you next, Joe in Pleasanton, California.
Mark and Brent, I see you out there.
I will get to you guys as quickly as I can.
But Joe, you will be up next.
So let me share a couple of things with you.
All right, Carl, how do we fight back?
I don't want to just complain.
I want to do something.
First off, recognize whatever gift it is that God has given you.
Maybe you have a talent of giving.
Maybe you can go out and make money.
Maybe some of you should run for office.
Maybe some of you like going out and holding up signs or just talking to your neighbor about different events.
Whatever it is God has gifted you to do, do.
In order to save the country.
And I believe that it is a spiritual battle.
I believe that it's not just a political battle.
And I believe the three freedoms have to do with political freedom, spiritual freedom, first and foremost, and financial freedom.
And if we can teach these things, I think we can slowly win back the country.
At least I hope we can.
Sometimes I feel like we can't.
I'll be frank with you.
But I think we can.
We're just going to have to dig in our heels, and we're going to have to fight, and we're going to have to work hard.
It's something that I don't think conservatives are used to doing.
Even when we get wins in Ohio, you see what happens with the amendment process.
Actually, even in Wisconsin, there was another column that I read on, I believe it was on the Federalists, where in Wisconsin, we lost the state Supreme Court.
But we still held or won the state legislature, got a super majority.
Whatever's happening in Wisconsin, they are still fighting like crazy, Republicans are, to make sure they can keep power.
The left just keeps going and going and going.
The Democrats within that particular legislature, and I don't have the story in front of me, so I'm going to have to find it.
But anyway, needless to say, the left never gives up.
The left never gives up.
So now you have the left that has the Supreme Court in Wisconsin.
We have the legislature, but now the left, I believe, if I recall the story correctly, is using the court to weaken the power of the legislature.
They never stop.
They never stop.
See, we assume that the left wants what we want.
If we tell them, hey, just remember, and I say it.
And I'm going to get into it.
I do remember the days of old, just a few years ago, when I was paying a lot less for gas and food and so on, etc.
But for those that are on the left, I'm talking about the true leftists.
They don't care.
But the moderates and independents, and you're going to have to figure out who's who.
Because you don't want to waste your time with people.
You're going to have to figure out who's who.
And you're going to have to try to connect the dots with those people.
It's got to be political.
It's got to be spiritual.
It's got to be financial.
You've got to push back against the left.
Let me just share this with you.
One of the rules for radicals, number one, power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.
All right, so now a lot of us have been told America's racist, systemically racist.
Those of us on the right, we know that isn't true.
But there's a lot of people that believe it.
Frankly, I know some Christians that bought into this nonsense.
I mean, to my chagrin and shock.
But some people bought into that.
And even some moderates and liberals, like, again, you have that donor.
What is Ron DeSantis doing?
He's too conservative.
It's absolutely insane.
And part of the tactic from the left is knowing, number one, rules for radicals, power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.
And so you have some donors that think, wait a minute, Americans aren't ready for this.
Americans don't want to hear this.
Maybe, like in the case of Ohio, conservatives just haven't made the case, haven't done a good job of it.
Maybe the messaging still stinks.
It's just something to consider.
It is something to think about.
Let me give you an example.
And again, I'll be bobbing and weaving here, because that's how I roll.
Let me share this with you.
This is from Rasmussen Reports.
Americans say blacks are more racist than whites, Hispanics, and Asians.
So this is a Rasmussen Report.
It was a national telephone online survey.
They found that 75% of American adults think the term racism refers to any discrimination by people of one race against another.
If you listen to the news, if you listen to the left, dare I say, even if you go online and look at articles, You might believe that there is a majority of Americans that think that America is racist, that thinks that America is systemically racist.
It isn't the case.
But the goal of the left, power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.
Understand, man, that these guys are playing a psychological warfare game against us where the old tactics don't necessarily work.
But what does work?
Is not backing down.
What does work is embracing the opposition and marching forward and understanding that you're not going to please everybody, that you're not going to make everybody happy, but you're going to fight and you're going to convince some.
That is our only hope.
You're going to have to fight.
You're going to have to donate.
Again, I'm not a rich man, but when I look at opportunities to give, To other, whether it's missionaries, whether it's a political organization, whether it's a PragerU, I give because I can't do the work that they can do, but they're in the fight with me.
And sometimes that is just as important.
We all don't have the same gifts.
So don't stress what everybody else does.
Let me just share this with you, and then I promise I will go to calls, and I'll get more into this fake racism in a second, because I do believe that this is important.
Hat tip, Sean McConnell.
Thank you.
This is from Raw Story, and apparently the left, once again, they're going after Justice Clarence Thomas, and it's the same old, same old.
So you have several House Democrats yesterday pushed U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
To immediately resign after the investigative outlet ProPublica revealed fresh details about the powerful judges' billionaire-funded and undisclosed luxury vacations.
I got a question.
Who's funding John Kerry?
I got a question.
Why would foreign entities, foreign governments, give money to a crackhead by the name of Hunter Biden?
You see what I'm saying?
We're going to dig in.
We're going to embrace the opposition.
Oh, by the way, is there a Republican out there?
Is there a billionaire?
Is there somebody that knows how to climb on a mountain, Rushmore, and build a freaking statue of Justice Clarence Thomas?
Because I am down to donate.
Embrace opposition.
Screw these punks.
You got Sonia Sotomayor who makes money.
The only way she makes money from her book sales is you have left-wing colleges buying her books, making that lady a millionaire.
What?
Crickets.
Give me a break.
All right, welcome back to the Dennis Frager Show.
I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Frager.
By the way, you can find me online, check out my podcast, The Carl Jackson Show, wherever you go to get your podcasts, The Carl Jackson Show, all things social media, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, True Social, Getter.
The Carl Jackson Show is where you can find me.
If you follow me, I would certainly appreciate that.
Subscribe to the podcast.
If you go to YouTube and rumble, rate and review it.
That'll help us move up the charts.
I would certainly appreciate that.
Let me just offer you this breaking news, and then I want to go to Joe in Pleasanton, California.
The lines are lighting up.
1-8 Prager 776. So I want to take some of your calls.
Prosecutors say Hunter Biden plea deal.
Unlikely case appears headed for trial.
By the way, I've got ADD here.
You guys haven't noticed.
But let me just say this.
I'm dead serious about that Mount Rushmore.
For Justice Clarence Thomas, I have thought about this long and hard, and I'm like, I want that man on Mount Rushmore, and I want liberals to have to see it every time they go visit.
Anyway, so prosecutors say Hunter Biden plea deal unlikely.
Case appears headed for trial.
Prosecutors in the criminal case against President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, said in court documents filed Friday that a plea deal in the case appears unlikely.
And the case appears to be headed for trial.
This is not good news, thank God, for the Biden crime family, led by the big guy, Joe Biden, who's trying to front like his crackhead son.
He's doing business of his own.
During the July 26, 2023 hearing, the court said on this matter, the defendant pled not guilty, according to prosecutors in the filing.
Since that time, the parties have engaged in further plea negotiations, but are at an impasse.
The government now believes that the case will not resolve short of a trial.
This is not good news for the Biden crime family.
The news comes as U.S. Attorney General Mark Garland announced today that Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump.
Listen, they're trying to use that line.
It doesn't matter.
That guy is scared to do anything in Delaware.
But anyway, Attorney David Weiss, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, was granted special counsel status this week.
This appointment confirms my commitment, David Weiss says, to provide Mr. Weiss all the...
I'm sorry, this is Merrick Garland.
This appointment confirms my commitment to provide Mr. Weiss all the resources he requests.
It also reaffirms that Mr. Weiss has the authority he needs to conduct a thorough investigation and to continue to take the steps he deems appropriate independently based...
Only on the facts and the law.
We'll see if that is true.
I highly doubt it.
What Merrick Garland could do is kind of make his path narrow.
You can look at this evidence and that is it.
That is all.
That's how this stuff works.
So I don't believe Merrick Garland and I don't trust David Weiss.
He's already shown that he's weak.
He worked with the defense to give Hunter Biden a sweetheart deal that you and I would have never gotten.
So I don't trust that for a sec.
Anyway, that is the news.
Let's go to Joe.
Joe has been waiting patiently in Pleasanton, California.
Joe, welcome to the Dennis Frager Show.
You've got the mic.
Hi, Carl.
You're just terrific.
Just a comment on what you just said about racism.
Yeah, you can see it with the senators.
They're all saying the same things on the left.
And then their mindset is if they keep telling us over and over and over, after a while you're going to believe it.
And then the media will prop it up and show segments on them.
And that's how they attack us.
But my comment is, I get tired of watching the press secretary about Hunter Biden keep saying that he's a private citizen, but all you see him is in motorcades.
He shows up in court with the CIA in a motorcade.
He hides in the White House.
Living at the White House in order not to be subpoenaed for a paternity test.
Who does that?
I don't know.
I just want to hear your comment on that.
Hey, listen, Joe, I appreciate that.
I think Sean and I have talked about that before.
But obviously, this guy gets special privilege.
We don't have Secret Service privilege.
I would hardly call that guy a private citizen.
We don't go to a courthouse with a motorcade.
So yeah, the guy is definitely not a private citizen.
I'm sorry, once you're the son of the president, that status goes away.
That status goes bye-bye.
He can try to live like a private citizen.
But given the fact that he runs Joe Biden's business for him, it's obvious that he's not a, and I'll get into some of the dirt, because these people were making hand over fist type money during Joe Biden's presidency.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
And by the way, by the way, I think there's a connection to Barack Obama.
The clean and articulate Negro.
So we will get to that as well.
Those are Joe Biden's words, not mine, so don't get mad at a brother.
All right, let's go to Mark in Detroit, Michigan.
Mark, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show.
You've got the mic.
Oh, yeah.
You know, I know exactly what you're talking about when you say it all comes together in the end because the left and the Democratic Party, they're trying to build the foundation.
Of a police state.
You know, there was no crime committed, no armed insurrection on January 6th instigated by President Trump.
That crime doesn't exist, but they used it as a rationale for mass surveillance, mass incarceration without trial, the Stalinist January 6th show trial, and the illegal and unconstitutional occupation of our nation's capital, not by a foreign power, by the Democratic Party.
And you've got the FBI Gestapo tactics.
You've got 500 political riots organized over the Internet by the surrogates of the Democratic Party, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, etc.
And they moved on from there to designate concerned parents and devout Catholics as terrorists.
I mean, you know, it's hard for, I think, ordinary people to wrap their minds around.
Who and what these people are.
It was for me, I know, from the beginning.
Listen, great call.
And I appreciate that, Mark.
And I remember Dennis Frager wrote about this.
I forget the name of the column.
I think it was dress rehearsal for a police state, but during the lockdowns.
And honestly, it is frustrating to me because I feel like even conservatives, we want to move on from what happened with COVID. It's the craziest thing that I've seen in my life.
Every Republican that played a part in that needs to answer for it.
it.
Every Democrat leftist that played a part in that needs to answer for it.
They need to give an account.
In my opinion, Fauci needs to go to jail.
This guy is still being uplifted.
Thank God Rand Paul has stuck on him like white on rice.
But I don't hear many other Republicans talking about it anymore.
It's really, really weird to me.
And there's things that could be done now.
And I think part of the issue is Republicans, we sit here and we look for a savior while Democrats are in Ohio and in In Wisconsin right now and saying, while they're waiting for their savior in 2024, let's go ahead and make things a little tougher for them.
And then we're like, yeah, 2024, 2024. And they're like, yeah, you idiots.
We're already screwing things up in Wisconsin and Ohio right now.
We're just late to the party, man.
So we just got to dig in and fight.
And dig in wherever you can dig in and dig in now.
If you hear people say, well, in 2024...
2024, we've got to win then, too.
But we've got to get involved now, wherever we can.
Carl Jackson and for Dennis Prager, we'll be back in a few.
One of the rules for radicals, Saul Alinsky's rules for radicals, make the enemy live up to his own book of rules.
He says you can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.
I want to talk about that in just a second, and then I'll be going back to the lines here.
Brant, Sherry, Fred, Robert, just hold on.
I'll get to you in just a minute.
The number to call in, 1-8-Prager-776.
By the way, it is fundraising month at...
Guys, please donate.
Please donate.
Not only is this a ministry, they are the biggest juggernaut fighting back against the woke left and the cultural war.
For those of you that think wokeism or woke, this is something that...
I'm sorry.
I just got to be frank with you.
You're foolish.
You're foolish.
I would argue with you that the reason why we have a woke and corrupt FBI and DOJ, the reason that we have churches that have been absolutely corrupted by BLM and all this kind of stuff is because wokeism, cultural Marxism, in essence, is alive and well.
So if you don't understand that, I've literally heard.
I've literally heard.
A national host kind of minimizing, oh, woke, and this and that.
You hear some of what the donors, you hear, I've heard even conservatives, Republicans say, oh, woke, woke, we shouldn't worry about that.
You don't understand the fight.
You don't understand the fight.
Woke is basically a war on truth.
A war on truth.
PragerU is fighting for truth.
So give them a...
Look them up.
Give them a donation.
PragerU.com.
Right now, again, August is fundraising month.
Your donation will be doubled.
Alright, so whatever you can afford.
If you can afford $100, give $100.
It'll be $200.
If you can afford $500, give $500.
It'll be $1,000.
Maybe you want to celebrate Dennis Prager's birthday.
Give $75.
$75, that will be doubled.
Whatever you give will be doubled.
Maybe there's some of you out there in the listening audience and you're like, listen, Carl, I'm living in Biden's economy.
I got $5 on me.
I got $5 on it.
All right, we'll give $5.
That'll be doubled to $10.
Whatever you can give, give.
All right, 833-PragerU if you prefer to call.
Man, I wish we could get the left nervous.
I really do.
And start...
Fundraising to put a statue of Clarence Thomas.
The more I think about that, I'm like, man, are there any of you out there that have that type of money?
I just want to talk about it.
I want to get them so nervous and so mad.
The left just irks me, man.
People that are literally destroying their country, the trick is they'll have no place to go.
So make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.
We can do that too.
Christians aren't perfect.
Jews aren't perfect.
Alright?
We can do that too.
The left definitely isn't perfect.
Oh, you're living up to this issue with man-made climate change?
Oh, you still driving a car?
Oh, you want to go electric?
I'm going to give you some data on electric vehicles that will make you say, hmm, not so great for the planet.
A total scam.
Let's make them live up to their own rules, too.
How much time, Mr. McConnell?
Okay, alright, so when we get back, I promise Sherry and Brent, you guys are up next.
Fred and Robert, hold on.
I will get to you as soon as possible.
This is Carl Jackson sitting in for the great Dennis Prager.
The number to call in, 1-8-Prager-776-1-877-243-777.
77-76.
And maybe now you want to take the time during the break.
Donate to PragerU right now.
They can certainly use it because they are fighting a great fight.
We'll be back.
Welcome back to the Dennis Frager Show.
I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Frager.
I'm just reading through some of these headlines on Breitbart, fake media, blame record, suicide rate on guns.
Twitter ex-CEO Linda Yaccarino tries to excuse censorship.
Man, you can't trust lefties.
You cannot trust lefties.
I mean, they have their own worldview.
Woody Harrelson is backing RFK Jr., breaking with the rest of Hollywood.
I think that's very important.
I'm not a RFK Jr. fan, but I do appreciate what he's doing.
I'd rather him be the Democrat nominee.
Then, frankly, anyone else the left has to offer.
It's up in the air as to whether or not Joe Biden will be.
I figure as long as they are going after Trump really hard, then that's an indication that Joe Biden will be the nominee because Joe Biden, foolishly or not, believes.
And listen, I read some of the left-wing literature out there.
They believe that they could beat Trump, and Biden believes that he could beat Trump.
He thinks that he beat him the first.
I didn't say that.
He thinks that he can beat Trump, so the goal is to get this one-on-one with Trump and beat him down.
You know, favorable, unfavorable numbers, all that kind of good stuff.
That's ultimately the goal.
The problem is more of this Hunter Biden, Joe Biden crime family stuff is starting to leak out little by little, so Democrats are obviously getting nervous.
They're obviously getting nervous, and this was not good news.
The news that just broke a little earlier that the prosecution, and I'm actually shocked to hear that, but the prosecution and the defense attorney for Hunter Biden could not come up with a plea deal.
They came to an impasse.
That is not a great sign for the big guy.
All right?
So anyway, but that is welcome news.
That is welcome news, in my opinion.
I don't trust David Weiss.
He'll be trusted as the special counsel.
Again, that was more news that broke.
Merrick Garland is assigning him to be the special counsel when it comes to all things Hunter Biden.
But David Weiss has already shown that he's weak and he's a fake and he's a fraud.
All right, so anyway, let me just share this and then I want to go to Sherry and then Brent.
You'll be next.
So one of the rules, I mentioned the rules for one of the rules for radicals and that was for make the enemy live up to its own book.
So we can hold the left accountable and some of the things that they say, whether it's climate change.
Trans issues.
We need to be able to hold them accountable on things that they believe.
We've got to throw this stuff back at them.
We're in a new type of fight.
And the fight that we're in now, all of the same arguments don't work.
And I feel like, I can't lie, I love you all.
I love you all.
But I listen to conservatives, I listen to Republicans, and I really feel like I'm in a time warp.
Because I feel like still there are a lot of Republicans thinking that 2016 is the same way you can run in 2024 and win.
And I'm like, nah, nah.
It's got to be all hands on deck.
If you think the left...
The crazy behind left is going to let you win a mono-e-mono election.
Read the stories on Ohio in issue one.
Read what they're doing in Wisconsin now.
We thought we were safe.
Oh, they got the Supreme Court.
But we have a super legislature.
And the left is like, I don't care what you got.
We're going to destroy.
We're going to destroy.
The state legislature's ability to be able to legislate.
That's what we'll do.
That's how we roll.
And the Republicans think, alright, we can do things.
No, you better dig in and fight.
Alright, so one of the rules.
One of the rules for us to save the country, rule number one, by the way, this is a book entitled God is the Issue, is written by Brad Bright.
He is the son of Bill Bright, who passed away quite some time ago, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ.
But number one, a highly committed handful of individuals is required to drive the process of social change.
This is very important because you need to understand how valuable you are as an independent.
You don't need, I'm sorry, as an individual, you don't need anybody to come save the day for you.
You need to be that person.
And you can get involved, if you like, with other individuals.
He writes here, Brad Bright does, only a relative handful of people is required to move the thinking of the broader culture if that group is highly committed to its cause.
But they must be willing to sacrifice everything if the need arises.
This seems to be what the history books indicate.
Check out our founding fathers, for example.
Understand this principle.
All 56 of the men who signed the Declaration of Independence knew that they might well die a traitor's death.
Nine of their rank did die during the Revolutionary War.
Five others were captured and tortured by the British.
Twelve lost their homes.
Seventeen lost their fortunes.
Two lost their sons.
Despite all this, not a single one Not a single man failed to honor his pledge as stated in the final sentence of the Declaration of Independence.
For the support of this declaration, with the firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.
In 1903, at a meeting of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party, the qualifications for membership were debated.
One man, Vladimir Lenin, vehemently demanded nothing less than total and complete commitment to the communist cause for life.
17 men joined with him 14 years later.
Listen to that.
17 men joined with him 14 years later when they seized power in the Soviet Union, a nation of 150 million.
Let's go to the lines.
Let's go to Sherry.
Sherry is in Columbia, South Carolina.
Sherry, welcome to the Dennis Frager Show.
You've got the mic.
And by the way, guys, I promise you I am going to get to Bidenomics and fake racism.
It's just how I roll out.
Make sure I'll get it in.
But Sherry, go right ahead.
Welcome to the Dennis Frager Show.
You've got the mic.
Thanks so much.
Thanks for taking my call.
I wanted to continue with what you said earlier about how, you know, you need to turn to God.
You really do.
And whether you're a believer or not, regardless of what side of the fence you're on, what your views are about Trump or Biden or whatever, it clearly says in the Bible and as history has shown that depending on where you are with the nation, what your morals are,
and how, like Romans 1, States that the progression of people and nations that defied God and redefined morality with homosexuality, lust, blah, blah, blah, that turned away from them, they will receive his wrath.
And what we, and just, you know, and it's both sides.
You got about 20 seconds, Sherry.
The conservatives have just, you know, they've let it go.
They just like, you know, accept it or whatever so that they don't buck the system.
And that's where we are with this.
Jerry, listen, thank you for your call.
I appreciate you being out there.
More on the other side.
Carl Jackson in for Dennis Frager.
Welcome back to the Dennis Frager Show.
I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson.
I want to go right back to the lines.
Again, there's a lot that I'm going to be weaving in, so make sure you stay tuned in the next hour.
I'm going to go through some fake racism when it comes to Michael Brown.
Black thugs are not black heroes.
I'm also going to talk to you about how the left is using the economy to kill the middle class, to kill the blue-collar worker.
All of this stuff is planned.
Alright, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but this is stuff.
This stuff is playing out right before our eyes.
I want to go through it.
And by the way...
Some of you, I don't want you to be terrified.
Sometimes fighting back just means sharing your views, sharing your values.
The people in Republicans in Ohio lost issue one because they came out.
They were too scared to say what they were about.
And so the left called them on it and not even pro-lifers, enough pro-lifers showed up.
So don't do that.
Just speak your mind.
Everybody doesn't have to run for office.
Brant in Los Angeles.
Brant, welcome to the Dennis Frager Show.
You've got the mic.
Blessings, courageous brother Carl.
Thank you, Brant.
If Christians, Jews, Americans, and conservatives ever desire to win the war on truth, morality, reality, and sanity, we must be fearlessly honest and expose the ferocious pandemic of lies of the Luciferian left, especially barbaric lying Maoists.
And I pray we all promote two essential documentaries by the brilliant and courageous filmmaker Joel Gilbert.
His videos have unfortunately flown under the radar because most conservatives choose cowardice.
The number one film is Dreams from My Real Father from 2012 about our first communist president-in-chief, Barack Obama, whose real father and mentor was the famous communist leader, Frank Marshall Davis, not a Kenyan front father who was promoted for political reasons. not a Kenyan front father who was promoted for political
And then two, the Trayvon hoax from 2019 about the Trayvon Martin who became the first violent felon thug to be transitioned into a demonic Democrat saint prior to their monstrous Michael Brown and their grotesque George Floyd.
Yeah, those are great examples.
I appreciate that.
Fred, listen, we got short of a minute, but it's yours if you can make it happen.
Robert and Greenville, I'll have to get to you on the other side, but I'll get to you right away if you want to stay on.
Fred, go right ahead.
You got the mic.
Yeah, I'm a big fan of you and Dennis called before.
You know, when you're dealing, you had mentioned Lennon, when you're dealing with Stalinists, okay, you...
I've never seen any of them removed by elections, unfortunately.
I'm peaceful.
I'm not advocating anything.
My fear is, unless you get rid of the right-ins, the mail-ins, where they're not checking the signatures, it's ripe for fraud, because even in California, they admit they don't check it.
And most people never show up, so they have a nosha list.
They fill it out.
Fred, listen, we've got to go to break.
If you want to stay on, you can.
I promise I'll take you right away in the next hour.
Ran out of time.
Sorry about that.
We'll be back.
at Carl Jackson in for Dennis Prager.
Welcome back to the Dennis Rager Show.
I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Frager.
I just want to take the time to thank both he and Sue.
Also, Sean McConnell that is in my ear.
I've got Gabe right here that's got my back.
Gabe Passiano, AM 950. The answer, Orlando.com, 94.9 FM. Alan Estrin, thank you again for another opportunity.
Suzette, it's on the lines.
Zach, I know you're in there somewhere as well.
Well, also, guys, just a reminder, there are some people in Hawaii that are experiencing something far more devastating than perhaps any one of us will ever experience.
So a lot of people that have lost their homes, over 50 lives have been lost as a result of the wildfires out there on the island of Maui.
So please keep those people in prayer.
And if you have an organization that you like donating to, to make sure that you chip in and help out in any way you can beyond your prayers, I should say.
And then please find that organization.
Donate to those organizations.
Those people need...
I should say.
So I just want to remind people of that.
As we're sitting here fighting for this country, those people are fighting for their lives in some cases.
So anyway, just keep them in prayer.
Keep them in mind.
Also, again, this is fundraising month for PragerU.
So please, those of you that have considered donating before or have donated before, this is the time to do it.
This is the month to do it.
Your gift will be doubled.
If you give $100, it'll be $200.
$250 will go to $500.
$500 will go to $1,000.
For those of you that can't afford that, maybe you want to match Dennis Prager's birthday.
He hit the milestone and turned 75. Maybe you want to do that.
That'll be doubled.
Maybe you just have $5 in your pocket, whatever it is.
Listen, if you can't be one of the fighters in an arena of warfare when it comes to the conservative or the constitutional movement, then please donate.
You can do that.
You can be a warrior, per se, by donating to PragerU.
And I mean that in all sincerity.
Because I think sometimes, listen, we're all, we don't want to lose this country.
And I believe that God gives every single one of us a different gift.
Actually, I know it because it's in the Bible.
So he gives all of us different gifts.
He gives all of us different giftings.
So no, not everybody should run for office.
You don't belong there.
Let's not do what the woke left does.
Try to give everybody a trophy and tell people to go where they don't belong.
Some people don't need to run for office.
Some people just need to give.
Some of you have not spoke up to your neighbor or to a child.
Perhaps, of yours and talk to them about God.
Talk to them about constitutionalism.
Talk to them about Biden corruption.
You've been nervous.
Maybe some of you, I seriously mean this, and I know some of my colleagues might disagree with this, but frankly, I don't care.
Some of you may just need to open your mouth because you haven't done it.
You've been afraid to do it.
You've been afraid of what people might think about you.
You've been afraid of what people might say.
You've been afraid of what your child might think about you.
You've been afraid that you might be looked at as a weirdo if you tell your son or your daughter or your neighbor.
Do you understand where we are in America?
Get past the Trump thing.
Get past the Biden.
Do you understand where we are?
Do you understand the freedoms that are at stake?
And have those conversations.
Is your soul right with God, for God's sakes?
Anyway, let's go back to Fred.
Fred is in San Francisco, California.
Fred, I'm sorry I just got you.
Too late in the last hour, so I wanted to go right back to you.
Yes, thank you so much.
So I'm going to make two points.
First is, and again, I'm peaceful, I'm older, I'm very, you know, good conservative and logical.
My fear is, and again, I'm not advocating anything.
I just see this as a catch-22.
I've never heard of an autocratic, Stalinistic, uniparty society, which we have now, unfortunately, that's ever relinquished power via election.
When they control the election.
And, you know, that's my worry.
And so unless we eliminate the mail-ins and the four or five swing states, which we were looking at the wrong thing.
It wasn't the computers.
It was probably the fact that people were forging these signatures.
I know for a fact in California, they refuse to check their ID in person.
They're not checking the signatures and they're not doing these dates.
And so if that's the case, my worry is...
Why are they going to stop doing what they're doing when it works so effectively?
And unfortunately, you know, electoral process didn't work on George III, unfortunately.
Electoral process didn't really work on Stalin.
He lived to a ripe old age and died.
If you watch that current movie about Stalin, it's a comedy.
But this isn't a comedy, and it's very sad right now.
One thing that I can't understand is billionaires.
You know, they already have a billionaire tax going on in L.A. They added that tax that a house is worth more than $4 million.
So, you know, they're going to target upper middle class and super rich.
They whacked on, like, a large tax on them.
And people couldn't sell their houses because nobody wants to buy in L.A. now.
They ruined San Francisco.
My worry is billionaires are crazy.
Because once there's a unibody...
Autocratic, one-party system for the country like there is in California.
And you understand it, I know.
But a lot of people who've never lived here don't understand.
This is a one-party system.
The first two names are Democrats.
It's so crazy, so unconstitutional.
And once that goes for the country, they don't need billionaires because they don't need donations.
Once they don't need donations, then you're going to start saying, like, you know, I don't think Musk is doing a good job at Twitter.
I think Hunter would do a better job.
I think Kim Mellor should be running Apple because she's a genius and she knows that AI has two letters.
I have to go to another call, but I share some of your concerns.
I share some of your concerns, but listen, this is the time.
God has...
God has put us on this earth for such a time as this, so we have no choice but to fight, even if, you know what, and stand up for truth and stand up for the right thing.
Maybe that might mean that we don't end up being victors.
I don't know, but I'm going to fight like heck to try and make sure that we are and we do what we can to save this country and stand before God with a clear conscience, no matter where it goes.
All right, let's go to Robert.
Robert is in Greenville, South Carolina.
Robert, welcome to the Dennis Frager Show.
You've got the mic.
Thank you for being patient.
Thank you.
I'm a big fan of yours.
I listened to you all during the Larry Elder campaign for governor.
Thank you.
It is really a pleasure to be able to speak to you, and your testimony is so heart-wrenching.
I've always been a fan of yours.
Thank you, Robert.
The pleasure is mine.
I wanted to mention how Donald Trump should go after defense against these illicit prosecutors.
He has to take it to the Supreme Court that it's election interference.
And I don't see how that would default.
He has to petition for the removal and disbarment of the lawyers and the judges that would interfere in the election.
He is the lead candidate for the Republicans.
He's beaten the rest of the field by 30 points at least.
I mean, he's really tracking it.
And everybody feels for Donald.
I voted for Ted Cruz.
But all the Ted Cruz people know that Donald Trump was cheated.
We side with Donald Trump.
We know he got robbed of his second term.
And we're definitely behind him.
But unless somebody takes it to the Supreme Court...
I don't see how they're going to overturn these crooked voters.
I really don't.
I wanted to hear what you thought.
Well, I gotta tell you, at this point, it's gotta be us going out to try our best to get more votes wherever we can.
It's gotta be us pushing for our agenda wherever we can and not backing away and not backing down in any way, shape, or form.
Wherever we can make election integrity a thing, then that's gotta be a thing.
I gotta be...
We're in uncharted territory.
All right, so let's just be frank.
We're in uncharted territory.
What the Supreme Court can do, how they can intervene, I'm not exactly sure, to be frank with you.
But I can say that we're in uncharted territory.
They are the left.
No one is going to...
How do I say this?
Listen.
I share your concerns with the 2020 election.
We have to fight to make sure that every election ahead of us, whatever way we can be involved, we do what we can there.
What the left is doing is absolutely disgusting.
They're not just doing it to Donald Trump.
They're doing it to the entire country, in my opinion.
And we're just in a precarious position.
We are in uncharted territory.
We are in dangerous times.
There's no doubt about it.
What they're doing in the past, we've got to fight for 2024. We've got to fight for every election, special election, that may happen before 2024. I'll have more on that on the other side.
Appreciate you calling in.
Hey, welcome back to the Dennis Frager Show.
I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Prager.
Please check out my podcast, The Carl Jackson Show, wherever you go to get your podcast.
You can subscribe there.
I'm sorry, I have the volume on on my computer and did not realize it.
All right, so you can subscribe to the podcast, The Carl Jackson Show.
I would certainly appreciate that.
All things social media at The Carl Jackson Show is where you can find me.
All right, guys, so let me just share some ways to fight.
God is the Issue, written by Brad Bright.
He is the son of Bill Bright, but it's one of the first books I read.
When at that time, over 20 years ago, I was like, okay, I'm going to be a political activist.
I wanted to get involved.
And I read this book, and at some point I got involved with local Tea Party stuff and all that kind of stuff.
Got involved with the Republican Executive Committee.
At the time, I haven't been as active with those local things, but I intend to register voters for 2024. I believe that we all have to do something.
And we all just have to dig in our heels and fight.
But one of the things we have to do is embrace opposition.
Another one of the things that we have to do is determine your core agenda and message and make all decisions in light of it.
At the time, he wrote about what Bill Clinton was doing with the Supreme Court.
Bill Clinton wanted the Supreme Court.
He wanted to radically transform the courts in the United States of America.
And he wondered what he was doing, the triangulation, all this kind of stuff.
And he sat and thought about it, and ultimately it was the courts.
The left decided, listen, we can get so much more done with the courts than we can, you know, the legislature.
And so that was one of Bill Clinton's core agendas, was to change the court system.
But this is something that we can do as well.
Determine whatever our agenda is, every decision we make should be made in light of it.
And I'll say this, I'll say this.
I think it was a bad mistake.
And I hope it doesn't come back to bite us on the butt.
I think it was a bad mistake for Trump not to endorse Hermit Dillon as head of the RNC. I know some people are scared to say it.
I'm going to say it.
I hope that decision doesn't come back to bite us on the butt.
I feel like we need to work even harder as a result of that decision.
I mean, no ill will to a Ronna McDaniel.
I know she is doing the best that she can, but we had an opportunity to lift up an attorney.
And Harmeet Dillon, that's a straight-up activist.
She was there in Portland fighting alongside Andy Noah, or at least her legal organization was.
These are the type of people that we need.
The right people in different policy positions.
I believe Harmeet Dillon was one of them.
Can't gripe on that anymore.
We have to look forward.
We have to do all that we can.
But I will say, that definitely mattered.
Let me share this with you.
Let me get on to fake racism real quick.
Callers, I see you out there.
1-8 Prager, 776. 1-8 Prager, 776. By the way, this is fundraising month with PragerU.
Whatever you donate is doubled.
$100, it's $200.
$250 turns into $500.
$1,000 turns into $2,000.
$5,000 into $10,000, so on, etc.
But whatever you can give, please give.
You can also go to 833 PragerU.
Listen to this.
Chip Sean McConnell.
This from Fox News.
Washington Post skewered after quietly updating fact check on Hunter Biden meetings.
And we'll get into some of this corruption.
So this is Joe Concha.
He's going back, going after.
Glenn Kessler from the Washington Post for updating an article, a 2020 article, on claims that Hunter Biden set up a dinner meeting between a Burisma executive and his father, who was then vice president.
And I'll get into some of the corruption.
But this is what I mean.
We have to be willing to go at these people.
We have to be willing to mock these people.
It's one of the rules from Rules for Radicals.
We need to do it to them like they did it to us.
Remember what they did to Sarah Palin?
I literally watched a story.
I think it was National Geographic.
I can't remember.
And they outlined the best political speakers in American history.
And they said FDR was one of them.
Who else did they say?
Barack Obama was one of them.
I'm missing one.
Oh, Ronald Reagan was the other.
So FDR, Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan, the best political speakers ever in American history.
You know who number four was?
You know who number four was ranked and polled before this person was totally destroyed, mocked, and made a mockery of?
Sarah Palin.
Sarah Palin.
Even people on the right, some on the right, don't take Sarah.
They just don't take her seriously.
They destroyed Sarah Palin.
The media did.
The left did.
So let's use mockery on them, too.
Glenn Kessler, obviously, writing for the Washington Post, updating a column, complete fraud.
Don't read them.
Not worthy of reading.
This is a guy that will lie.
He's not a journalist.
This is a guy that will lie to cover up the crimes of Joe Biden's crime family.
All right?
Let's mock them, too.
Let's use some of their tactics.
Well, Carl, that isn't Christian.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
That is...
Either you're going to win the country or you're not.
You're going to win the country or you are not.
All right, let me get on to this fake racism real quick.
Michael Brown.
Ninth anniversary of Michael Brown.
Take it for what it's worth.
I want to say this right up front.
Black thugs are not black heroes.
I can't stand when black thugs are represented as black heroes.
I remember watching Trayvon Martin on TV. I remember at the time watching television and they said it was a white supremacist that attacked Trayvon Martin.
And then they showed a picture of George Zimmerman and I was like, what?
That fool ain't white.
Those were my exact words.
Because he wasn't.
It's insane.
And then we get to this issue with Michael Brown.
Listen, I understand that Michael Brown is the child of someone.
And so someone loved him dearly.
And regardless of what we feel about him, and I'm getting ready to share what I felt about him, someone loved him.
So I do consider that.
But Michael Brown was a black thug that walked into a liquor store, stole some cigarettes, handed it to his homie behind him.
And then when the owner of the store proceeded to step in, Michael Brown, 6'5", 300 pounds, was leaving his store.
Michael Brown choked him and threw him to the side.
And then Michael Brown walked in the middle of the street like he owned Ferguson, Missouri.
Officer Darren Wilson, not at the time, not knowing that the guy had just robbed the freaking liquor store, confronts the guy.
The guy gets upset with the police officer, has no respect for the law, literally.
Tries to bump rush the police officer like he's a football player.
Gets inside of the police officer's SUV. The police officer, actually, as he's coming, the police officer is shooting at him.
He gets inside.
The police officer is popping caps.
Michael Brown gets his hands inside of the trigger pull.
He gets a bullet in his hand.
That's why...
Good Lord.
Gunpowder was on his hand.
I'm sorry.
I say all that.
Representative Cori Bush was out there trying to praise this guy.
He is a black thug, and I'm sorry.
I would have popped a cap in him, too, and so would you.
I'm tired of this fake racism crap where we make black thugs black heroes.
Michael Brown is not a hero.
And I'm sorry, some of you out there need to share that same truth.
We can't keep buying in to these fake freaking racist arguments or we'll never, we'll never end racism here.
We'll be back.
Carl Jackson in for Dennis Frager.
