Welcome to the Dennis Prager Show. I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Prager. The number to call into the program: 1-800-PRAGER-776. That number again is 1-800-PRAGER-776 or 1-800-243-7776. All right, I want to thank first off Dennis Prager and Sue for allowing me to sit behind their microphone and then and trusting me behind their— I've got my back right here at AM950, TheAnswerOrlando.com, right here in Orlando, Florida. Sean McConnell is in my ear. I want to thank Alan Estrin as well for allowing me as well to sit in and contacting me. Who do we have watching the lines there, Mr. McConnell? Tony is on the lines. Thank you, Tony. Good to see you. Alright, the number to call in: 1-800-PRAGER-776. 1-800-PRAGER-776. I'm going to do things a little differently today. Of course, we'll touch some of the hot topics and some of the leading headlines of today, but I'm going to go somewhere else today, and we'll bob and weave throughout the program here. I think I want to start here. I want to make some— emphatic comments. And, uh, I know a lot of people might not be comfortable with these comments, but by the end of the show, I hope and pray, uh, that you will be, and you will understand just how important they are. Because, uh, there's a war that is occurring, not just against Israel and Hamas, or dare I say Israel and Iran, a, a war sadly that the United States government, under the leadership of Joe Biden has helped to cultivate. And I say that sadly, but I believe it to be true with all of my heart. But there's a war that's taking place right here in the United States. And I believe that it's already begun. We're going to talk about several issues. And honestly, we'll go throughout the entire 3 hours. They're not necessarily going to be broken up, but we're going to talk about crime right here in the United States. We're going to talk about the border problem. We're going to talk about the problem that is Islamist, uh, Islamicism, or Islamism, or Islamic Jihad. Uh, we're going to talk about all of these issues because I think they're very, very important. But first, let me say this. Let me start off with this. Those many of you in the audience, or many, many of you in the listening audience, have been taught to believe that diversity is our strength, uh, when it comes to America. That is a damn lie. Uh, diversity is not our strength. Diversity will be our downfall. Now, if you're talking about diversity as far as the brain, you know, is concerned, that would be one thing. But unfortunately, when it comes to DEI, that's not what we're experiencing today. DEI, diversity, equity, inclusion, CRT, all of that racist bullcrap that is taking us down, that is identity politics. What that has caused us to do is to divide on issues that we shouldn't be divided against. Let me say this, even if you were an anti-Semite, even if you are an anti-Semite, even if you're a bigot, and you're a despicable person in that sense, in my opinion, we all should be able to agree that when it comes to, let's say, and listen, I'm not gonna hold any punches. So parents, for those of you parents that are listening in, I'm gonna describe some of the things that we know took place. In Israel at the hands of Hamas. And so I just want to brace you, and this might be a recurring theme throughout the show, so if you have little ears around, I want you to brace them. I am a Christian, so I will try to watch my mouth, but I'm going to shoot straight with you. I'm going to shoot straight with you, and I believe that you deserve nothing less than for me to shoot straight with you. But we used to believe, at least, that when it came to, let's say, rape, you you know, killing women and children, beheading people. That should be a line that I think we all can agree that we should not cross, right? I think we, at least in the United States of America, we used to believe that those things were evil, right? I mean, antisemitism is evil, but we understand that there's gonna be bigots. If you don't act on your beliefs, when it comes to that. Okay, listen, it's a free country. I can't stand you, but it's a free country. But now we seem to have quote-unquote Americans that are Hamas sympathizers, that are terrorist sympathizers, uh, and they don't belong here. They don't belong here, in my opinion. They're anti-American. So I'm here to say diversity is not our strength. That's total BS. It's going to be our downfall. And the left is specifically and intentionally focusing on issues that will divide us. This is dangerous. Let me tell you some of the things that should happen. I'm going to talk about— man, I got so much, it's insane. But I'm going to talk about the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act, how stupid that was and how that's coming to bite us in the butt. Another thing that the Democrats embraced because they were losing the vote, that's part part of the reason and why they finally embraced, or they, they, they tried to leave their racism in the past and tried to project it onto Republicans. Uh, so we'll talk about that a little bit. I want to talk about the warfare that is immigration. A lot of people are thinking of war in conventional ways, and we should be, right? Uh, we should be on our guard. Uh, but I'm going to talk to you about the, uh, the warfare by immigration, the warfare that is our immigration system, the warfare that is our open borders. Also, I'm gonna talk to you about popping caps. We're gonna talk about the Second Amendment. We're gonna talk about the lies that the Vice President Kamala Harris was spewing last week when she was in whatever the press conference that she gave with the Australian Prime Minister. I got some numbers for you and the numbers and the things that she were saying were just a complete and utter lie. That lady, I hate to say it because I don't want to be mean, but the truth of the matter is that lady is dumber than a box of rocks and she has no business being vice president of the United States. Now, Joe Biden is almost equally as dumb, but I don't even think he's as dumb as her, despite the fact that, in my opinion, the man has dementia. This is one of these left-wing people and Vice President Kamala Harris that has literally, I believe, been trained up in some of her thinking without really thinking about it, if you will. Let me tell you where we should start when it comes to immigration. And we'll get into this and we'll get into the war by immigration. We'll get into this nonsense about the Australian buyback program and how it allegedly saved lives and reduced the numbers of gun ownership. All of this is a complete and utter lie. That's all the left do. They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie. While they destroy the country. And if you hate America and if you're pro-Palestinian, which means pro-Hamas, I can't stand you behind, and I hope you leave the country. Move to Gaza. I hear there's an excellent firework show happening, uh, there right now that you could be a part of. All right, so merit-based immigration. I want to talk about that merit-based immigration. Uh, we need to move back to a merit-based immigration. And this is very important. This is crucial for our survival. Sadly, I don't think any American president has done it effectively in quite some time. We had a moratorium, and then with the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, we destroyed that, and we began to destroy America. Democrats began to destroy America. Here's where we should be. Here's what we should be doing. All right, so currently, as it stands right now, as it stands right now, we allow 1.1, approximately 1.1 illegal— I'm sorry, legal immigrants into the country annually. All right, we're gonna have to change that makeup due to what Joe Biden has done, the, the open borders, because I'm telling you guys, there's a war of immigration that is taking place. And while we sit here and we watch for we wait for the beheadings and we, uh, we wait for the mass shootings and all of this kind of stuff. I'm telling you, we are already at war, and China is at the helm. A lot of these countries in the Middle East, exception being Israel, are useful idiots for China. They don't realize that yet, but they will someday. They will someday. Russia, Russia also They will someday. They'll realize it, that they're, they're useful idiots for China. But currently we allow in, again, approximately 1.1 legal immigrants into the United States. The makeup of that is going to have to change. We'll, we'll talk about that. And, and I'm sorry, I think there's going to have to be a moratorium on that. At the very least, I believe we're going to have to cut those numbers in half until we can control the immigration process that that doesn't seem to exist right now. I mean, these open borders are absolutely scary to me. This is the biggest threat. This is the biggest threat hitting the United States of America, the home front. We talk about the fentanyl crisis and all these things. I've talked about how the left is trying to depopulate America. Perhaps I'll reintroduce you to that to some extent. But our open borders is a war that is being waged on us. And sadly, We have a United States government under the leadership of a Joe Biden that is participating, and it's sad. So that's going to have to be cut down. I want either that number cut in half or I want a total moratorium for 7 to 10 years. We'll be talking about that after the break. I got some other recommendations that need to happen right away when it comes to the border if we're going to start saving this country. But we need some strong men and women that are willing to do it. Carl Jackson in for Dennis Prager. We'll be back in a few.

Gold dealers are a dime a dozen. They're everywhere. What sets these companies apart, and whom can you really trust? This is Dennis Prager for AmFed Coin and Bullion, my choice for buying precious metals. When you buy precious metals, it's imperative that you buy from a trustworthy and transparent dealer that protects your best interests. So many companies use gimmicks to take advantage of inexperienced gold and silver buyers. Be cautious of brokers offering free gold and silver, or brokers that want to sell you overpriced collectible coins claiming they appreciate more than gold and silver. What about hidden commissions and huge markups? Nick Grovich and his team at AMFED always have your back. I trust this man, that's why I mentioned him by name. Nick's been in this industry over 42 years, and he's proud of providing transparency and fair pricing to build trusted relationships. If you're interested in buying or selling, call Nick Grovich and his team at AMFED American Federal Coin and Bullion, 800-221-7694, americanfederal.com, americanfederal.com.

All right, welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. Such an honor to be sitting behind Dennis's microphone. I mean, I adore the man. He's absolutely brilliant, and we all should look up to him, frankly. Hat tip, Breitbart. The Pentagon says the U.S. military launched airstrikes early Friday on two locations in eastern Syria linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps. So the U.S. strikes Iran-linked sites in Syria in retaliation for the attacks on U.S. troops, um, earlier or last week. Isn't this amazing? Isn't this amazing? So the U.S. military launched airstrikes early Friday on two locations in eastern Syria, uh, linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Pentagon said, in retaliation for a slew of drone and missile attacks against US bases and personnel in the region that began early last week. Man, I wonder if they could have afforded those drones had Biden not paid for them. Isn't it amazing how we've come full circle with the disaster that was the Afghanistan withdrawal, with the Taliban now running Afghanistan? $85 billion approximately in military equipment that we left behind that could be reverse engineered by China were the Taliban to sell it to China. And let's assume that they did. I mean, it's phenomenal. It's amazing. We wouldn't be in the predicament that we are in were it not for Biden and the Democrats that voted for Joe Biden. And yes, I'm going to say that often. I'm going to say that loudly. Uh, if you're wondering what's happening around the world, if you're seeing the, uh, what, what appears to be, I, I mean, the beginning steps, Lord willing, I hope that I'm wrong. I hope this does just end up being a move between, uh, between Israel and Iran and their proxies in Hamas and Hezbollah. Uh, but let's not be naive. There's going to be a lot of leaders around the world that are looking at this decrepit dementia patient that are in the White House and they're saying now is the time to make my move. And we have to wonder if those moves are not only going to reshift, uh, reshift political allies and, uh, and, and, and adversaries around, uh, around the globe. We— it, it's insane. We simply don't know what's going to happen, but I can tell you what we need to do to start protecting our own, uh, border and, and to get ready for the fight. By the way, we'll be sharing as well, if I can get to it, ways that you need to prepare for a terrorist attack, uh, because it's going to happen. And again, I think there's a war that is already being waged. I want to, I want to be clear, an unconventional war of sorts where the ground troops are amassing their, their soldiers around us, and we have, uh, an administration in the White House that is fully complicit. Either they're stupid or they're complicit. Either way, we're in danger. We're in danger. And it's very, very important. There's a piece too that I'm going to want to share by Ann Coulter. She wrote a fabulous piece last week, but I do want to get back to this immigration issue because I believe it's important. Girl, are you a racist? Are you a bigot? No, no, I'm an American. I'm an American. Guys, we're not a nation of immigrants. This diversity, equity, inclusion bullcrap. We're a nation of, you know, diversity. We're strengthened by diversity. That's all bullcrap that a lot of these college elites that, that have taught many of their students that have come through that don't have real-world experience. That's just total bullcrap. All right, I'm sorry, diversity does not make America stronger. Diversity makes America weaker. Diversity in thought and thinking, sure, where we can debate, go back and forth. That's not what the left is talking about. They love their people groups. They love the LGBTQ barbecue community. They love dividing men and women. You name it, they love dividing people because the left loves chaos. And what happens is, and sadly, we're starting to see this occur within the Republican Party too. It's gotten so divisive within the Republican Party. I'm not even sure that we can win 2024. A lot of ignoramuses within the Republican Party. I'm so tempted to leave, you cannot believe it. But I'm not even convinced that we want to win 2024, to be frank with you. But all right, but having said that, we've gotten so divided, so divided that we're giving the elites exactly what they want. And so I'm like, can we at least unite here? We need to seal up these freaking borders. I'm sorry, I appreciate that there's a lot of people that want to come to America legally, But you're going to have to be punished because of the sins of the Biden administration letting people in illegally. So we've got 1.1 approximately million people coming into this country every year. I want to ramp that back. I want that cut in half or I want a moratorium. And frankly, I would, I would prefer a moratorium on illegal immigration, 7 to 10 years, whatever it takes us to make up this amount. And I want the people that have come in in the last couple of years deported. Full stop. Full stop. All right, for the Ilhan Omars and all these people that think America is evil, why the hell would you want people to come to this country if it's so evil? Except that there's a plan. I want the, uh, I want the visa overstays— they need to be deported. That's something that a lot of people don't consider, but even visa overstays, those— that's a way in which a lot of people come into this country, they stay in this country, we don't search for them in places like Australia. New Zealand, uh, if you're there on a visa, a work visa of any sort, uh, the day that they're— the day of the day that your visa is up, or perhaps the day before, they are knocking at your door making sure that you're packing and ready to leave. We need to do the same thing. I really don't give a flip what your skills are at this point. I, I really don't. I really don't. Uh, merit-based job-related, uh, reasons. When Trump was in office, this is one of the things that Trump said he wanted to do. Unfortunately, and I got to find the quote, he literally said at the time, well, this is something we could work on after the 2020 election. Unfortunately, the left beat him to it. That is why when you have power, when you're in office, you better use it. You don't wait for jack crap. You use it. You use it. We can never make those mistakes again. The executive orders, great. We need legislation and you use that power and you don't take— you, you, I mean, you twist You twist ankles, you twist knuckles, you twist elbows, you do whatever you gotta do to use power. That is the difference between the right and the left. The right is willing to wait for elections, but the left, even when they lose elections, they seem to win because their agenda always moves forward. It's amazing to me. So, but at the time, Trump said, listen, this merit-based thing when it comes to job-related reasons, let's grow that. Right now, uh, 12% of the people come into this country that's merit-based, job-related reasons. Let's, let's jump that up to 57%. And I do appreciate that we didn't get it done. We should have gotten it done. Family-based immigration currently makes up two-thirds of all immigration. Uh, that would need to decrease, sadly, maybe to one-third. And again, I would prefer a moratorium, but at least we got to start somewhere. When it comes to asylum or diversity visas, they would have to decrease by more than half. Right now they stand at about 22% of immigration. That's legal immigration, by the way. That needs to be cut down to 10%. Again, again, with the caveat that I would prefer a full-out moratorium for the next 7 to 10 years. It just has to stop. We've learned what diversity is, and unfortunately what these elites have been telling our children that are going to these elite colleges and universities. And even not, not even just the elites. I don't care if you go to community college nowadays, the stuff that they're teaching in these schools are just loony. And these people are graduating and running our country. This is Carl Jackson in for the great Dennis Prager. We'll be back in a few. Pretty soon we'll be— I got so much more to get to. It's insane. Stay tuned.

All right, welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson sitting in for Dennis Prager. If I could convince you guys to follow me on social media, that would be great. Honestly, guys, I do slave labor when I leave talk radio. So if you want to help me get out of slave labor, one of the ways in which you can help me do it is to follow me on all things social media, Twitter and Instagram, @CarlJacksonShow or @TheCarlJacksonShow. The numbers matter. That is part of the business. Sometimes I feel uncomfortable talking about that, but It's part of the business, and, and, and one of the ways in which we're able to make a living, uh, even though I'm not completely there yet, frankly, is when you guys follow us on social media. Eventually that'll add up to ad dollars, uh, and that'll help a brother make a living. So I'm just being completely real and open with you. So if you would bother to follow me on social media, I would be, uh, I would be so grateful, uh, if you would do so. Callers, I see you out there. Tom and Jim, don't go anywhere. I will get to you in shortly here. The number to call into the program, 1-8-Prager-776, that is 1-877-243-7776. Guys, don't forget Dennis Prager's website, DennisPrager.com.

I would tell you, I don't care what, what age your kids are, I mean, there is something for your kids on PragerU. I mean, virtually every age group, but I would encourage you to have your— especially when it comes to junior high, actually I would start them in elementary at this point, especially if your kids are gifted. I'm assuming if you would share with them PragerU— yeah, I mean, you know how smart your kids are, all right? So share with them PragerU videos, and that, that'll serve as a reinforcement for not just your values, but helping them to gain knowledge of a whole plethora of, of different topics. So prageru.com. Get them prepared for if you do send them to college, God forbid. I hope you find a college that actually loves America. So Pragertopia, prageru.com, make sure you check them out. And obviously DennisPrager.com. The number to call in, 1-800-PRAGER-776. 1-800-PRAGER-776. All right, let's go over a few more immigration things. I got an Ann Coulter column that I'd also love to go through and a a fabulous column that was written by a gentleman by the name of Brian T. Kennedy at American Mind that talks about warfare by immigration. And this is one of the reasons that I am talking to you, and I will be talking to you about immigration, because we are starting to import people that have no business being in the United States of America. And you can see them protesting, and you've seen them protesting not just on college campuses, you've seen them protesting in places like New York. And a lot of these fools need to straight up go bye-bye. We need to kick them out of the country. Uh, they don't deserve to be in the United States if they're foreigners. They don't deserve to be here, and they should never be allowed to come back. If you're in the streets of the United States and you're a foreigner, if you're on a student visa and you're sitting here and you're pro-Palestine and you're protesting because you think you have First Amendment rights, you do not. You are not American. Take your happy butt back to wherever you came from, and you should never be allowed to come back here. As far as I'm concerned, when you say you're pro-Palestine, you're pro-Hamas, and you're a despicable, evil human being. I hope I've made myself clear. An attack against Israel, it isn't just an attack on Israel. It is an attack on Western civilization. And I'm going to talk to you about that broader spectrum, about that broader picture, because that's what's really occurring. They're not just going for— they're not just coming for Israelis. They're not just coming for Jews. They're coming for you. You better recognize. Carl Jackson in for Dennis Prager. We'll be back in a few. Welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for the great Dennis Prager. The number to call into the program is 1-800-PRAGER-776 or 1-877-243-7776. Do not forget to check out DennisPrager.com. For all things Dennis Prager. Also Pragertopia, where you can check out the podcast uninterrupted. Also you can check out the notes from, uh, Alan Estrin or some of the show prep. PragerU.com, if you don't want your children brainwashed, I, I suggest, and I'm dead serious, you start getting them, uh, watching. And this would be a good addiction— addicted to PragerU.com, 5-minute videos that are changing the world. I guarantee you Remember that commercial? What was that commercial, Sean, where the guy used to say, I guarantee it, I guarantee that if you get— who was that? Ruffles? Was that— well, I guarantee it. All right, so if you get your kids watching PragerU videos, I seriously believe that they will not be brainwashed. Now, obviously, that shouldn't be all that you do. Make sure that you take them to church. And raise them right. Teach them about the precepts, the principles that are outlaid in the Bible. I'm a Christian, so I would say teach them about Jesus Christ. I know obviously Dennis is a Jew, uh, he would, uh, he would tell you to teach them about the Torah and the instructions in the Torah, the 5 books of the, uh, first 5 books of the Bible. But listen, I, I take them, take them to church, uh, teach them about Jesus. I mean, you, this is We live in a world full of good and evil, and there's a lot of people out there that are just lost, that are looking for purpose. And I believe there's a lot of people that are falling by the wayside as a result. So that is one of our missions. But anyway, prageru.com, make sure you direct them to those videos. Again, the number to call in to the show, 1-800-776-1877, 243-77. 76. You know, this is random, but I was reading a column the other day. Did you guys know that many of these electric vehicles would cost approximately— and some of the larger ones— $50,000 more were it not for all of the government subsidies they get from start to finish to make those cars? Not to mention the strip mining of lithium and cobalt and the slave labor in the Congo. All right, I, I'm— it's absolutely insane. So if you're buying an electric vehicle, that's fine. Just understand that you are one of the people that are actually destroying, destroying the planet, and you shouldn't be getting any favors for it. The electric vehicle should die, uh, live or die by its own merits. I can't stand electric vehicles. I have no problem with people that like them, you know, to each his own. but please, if you're driving them believing that you're somehow saving the planet, uh, you're not. All right, they do much more damage to the environment, uh, than your typical ICE engine, uh, vehicle. All right, now let me, uh, let's see, where do I want to go here? Again, the number to call in: 1-800-PRAGER-776. 1-800-PRAGER-776. Let me, let me, let me start here. All right, so Ann Coulter wrote a fabulous column last week. It called— it's called "Staple a Green Card to Their uh, uh, to their kill the Jew signs. And she was talking about how, uh, BLM representatives and sympathizers with Hamas, and even in some in U— the US Congress, uh, how they are sympathizing with these people and how it's an absolute travesty to watch, uh, these college students. You guys remember the groups at Harvard? I'll get into that shortly. I know Dennis has talked about that, but these groups at Harvard that, that were literally in support of Hamas Given what had happened to Israel, I mean, the, the worst attack on Jews since the Holocaust, 10 to 12 times greater from what I understand than what we experienced at 9/11. And you've got these students in favor of it. I mean, it's absolutely insane. But what's even scarier is that there are a lot of foreigners that were involved in this. I'm going to talk to you about what's happening in London as well. Because London, in my opinion, in many parts of Europe, has probably come to a point where there's, there's, there's no going back. There's, there's no turning back. They've opened their, their borders. They've allowed all these Islamic jihadists in now, and these people are going to multiply. Uh, they, I mean, they get their freak on like bunny rabbits. They're going to multiply and they're going to overtake They're going to overtake Europe. That's what they do. And if we allow the same to occur here, shame on us. You can call me Islamic. I don't give a flip. I don't believe that Sharia law— I don't believe that Islam is— or Islamists or Islamism is compatible to the US Constitution. I do not. I do not. And if you believe otherwise, well, go move to one of their countries and let's see how that works out for you. —but Ann Coulter writes, in the past few weeks, Muslims, Arabs, and Arabs have poured into the streets in nearly every US city to celebrate the slaughter of Israelis while wearing scarves, keffiyehs, and other clown outfits, waving the flags of Palestine, Egypt, Algeria, Iraq, Lebanon, Morocco, Yemen, Turkey, Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Nigeria, and on and on. She also says it's so obvious that these people don't belong here that the immediate reaction of a number of politicians was to demand that their visas be revoked. And I say amen to that. You should send them back, guys. Remember back in the '60s? Well, I don't, but let's go back to the '60s, those of us that have read about it. Um, but even the anti-war protesters in the '60s, um, we, we, we, we weren't trying to revoke their visas because they were American. At least they had some American ideas. She asked the question, why are we importing millions of people from lesser cultures who will inevitably despise and resent the West for its very success? This is a very important question. Why are we importing millions of people from lesser cultures who will inevitably despise and resent the West for its very success? Oh, Carl, you're so condescending. You're so arrogant. You're so pious. I mean, the idea that America is a superior culture. You're damn right it is. That is why we have issues with our border. That's why Americans and Europeans don't flock to Middle Eastern countries, because our culture is better. It is simple. I don't give a damn how you feel about it. That is the truth, and everybody in the world knows it, except apparently for freaking Harvard students. It's insane. I, I, I, I, this, this stuff drives me crazy. We are committing national suicide. Get armed and get ready. There's going to be a lot of idiots out there that are probably going to need your help. You can debate as to whether or not you want to help them, but this is, this is insane. These people don't just hate us for our freedoms anymore. That's old school. Here's what Ann Coulter writes: people will brag about being gluttons, prideful, greedy, angry, lustful, and lazy. The only venal sin no one will cop— no one will cop to is envy. The truth of the matter is a lot of these places envy you because you're American, and you have the audacity You have the audacity, some of you, to be complete ingrates. You know, some— I used to sit and wish, God, why, why was I born here in the United States? You know, I remember back in the day, uh, you know, my parents and a lot of parents would say, oh, there's children starving in Africa and Ethiopia, you know, and all that kind of— and I would feel so bad. But now, you know what, I'm like, man, I'm so grateful. You know what I can do? I can earn money here and I can support groups and they don't have that issue as much anymore, but I can support groups that will help out people in those nations. That is the benefit of using and living in the United States. We are a superior culture because of our Constitution, not because of our people, because of our laws, because of our ideas. And if you don't like these ideas, screw you, leave the country. Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you. We'll be back. Carl Jackson in for Dennis Prager. I guarantee. All right, welcome back to The Dennis Prager Show. I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Dennis Prager. A hat tip Daily Wire. Judge reinstates gag order against Trump in the federal election case. So the judge presiding over special counsel Jack Smith's 2020 election case reinstated a gag order on the former president on Sunday night. U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, a political activist on the bench in my opinion, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, lifted her temporary stay after Trump publicly took aim at Mark Meadows, Trump's former White House chief of staff, who is reportedly cooperating with the special counsel. As this court has explained, the First Amendment rights— this is from Chutkan herself— as this court has explained, the First Amendment rights of participants in criminal proceedings must yield when necessary to the orderly administration of justice, she says. She goes on to say, and I quote, in contrary to defendant's argument, the right to a fair trial is not his alone but belongs also to the government and the public. Uh, Chutkan issued a narrow gag order against Trump earlier this month restricting him from chastising prosecutors, court staff, and potential witnesses. The judge temporarily lifted that gag order at the request of Trump's lawyer while they pursued an appeal, but prosecutors soon urged her to reinstate the order, saying Trump went back to the sort of quote-unquote targeting it would prevent. Examples the filing cited: an unmistakable and threatening message, quote-unquote, on social media about Meadows possibly testifying in exchange for immunity against prosecution, and comments he made about his former chief of staff to reporters in New York. Trump also called Smith, quote-unquote, deranged. I see nothing wrong with that, frankly. Jack Smith is deranged. He's a lightweight and he's a partisan hack, and everybody knows it. That's why his case against— what was it? Oh, I believe it was O'Donnell of Virginia, the governor of the time— I mean, was dismissed universally by the Supreme Court of the United— or unanimously, I'm sorry, by the Supreme Court of the United States. All right, so that is that federal contractor urges DHS to ditch the term illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrant says jihadist is racially charged. I say get rid of the federal contractor. That is a complete and utter moron. That's what I would say. We are living in an upside-down world. The left— listen, there's no doubt in my mind that the left wanted to take us down a notch, and they're doing just that. The United States I'm speaking of. But a lot of these people are just ignoramuses that have lived based upon theory. They're, they're cafeteria lounge, you know, theorists that have not really lived in, uh, in the real world, a real world. And to the extent that they have, they've gone from privileged lifestyle to privileged lifestyle to privileged lifestyle, kind of lived in a bubble. I don't know what it's like to get calluses on their hands or be amongst, you know, real working-class Americans. It's absolutely insane, man. The flow— the phones have blown up, guys. The number to call in, 1-800-778-18776. We'll get to as many of your calls as possible, so please stay there, be patient with me. I promise I'll get to as many as possible. Let me just finish up through this, and then this column about that Ann Coulter, right? I want to make sure that I get into the Second Amendment and also the greater threat, which is this warfare by immigration, uh, that has taken place. And again, we're looking for this big— I don't know— this big terrorist attack to occur in the United States. And sadly, uh, I'm not hoping for it, but, but I do believe that it's inevitable just based upon our open borders and the policies, uh, that, uh, the policies that are espoused from the White House. So I, I just believe that that is inevitable. So I would say that you should be aware, be alert, be on your guard. Don't be paranoid. I mean, live your life, no doubt about it, but just don't have the mentality that what occurred in Israel can't occur here, especially since we have an administration that is literally importing Islamists into the United States of America. They did that with Afghanistan. Literally 70,000 people that they did not vet, they brought into the United States. While they left Americans behind. It's astounding. It's amazing how we don't hear much about the American hostages from Joe Biden, isn't it? The American hostages in Gaza. It's pretty amazing. Pretty amazing where we're at. All right. Now, some of you voted for that. You can repent in 2024. And I hope that you do. All right. So again, Anne was basically saying, I mean, hating us just for our freedoms is old school. now people, they, they, they will brag about being anything in the United States, prideful gluttons, you name it, uh, but envy is what they won't cop to. And she's so right. I recall the open letter from the 33 Harvard student groups blaming Israelis for their own slaughter. She mentions, in addition to about a dozen Muslim and Arab groups, the letter was signed by clubs for immigrants from various, uh, locales notable for their high levels of corruption, uh, Bangladesh, Nepal, uh, Bengal, and South Asia. Uh, she writes, uh, we didn't have to worry about these, uh, uh, she says, you think Harvard had a problem with the Bengali Association of Students before the 1965 Immigration Act? No, that 1965 Immigration Act has worked to destroy America. Again, I believe that we need to put a moratorium on that act. I'm going to find for you, I'm going to have to search for them. I'm sorry, I looked them up. Much earlier, but I'm gonna have to find for you some quotes, uh, for, uh, from— oh, here, here it is, here it is. And callers, I promise you I will get to, uh, uh, I will get to you, to you as soon as possible. All right, so here's what the, the, uh, the liberal liar of the Senate said at the time, uh, Ted Kennedy. He said the bill would not flood, and I'm talking about the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965. Again, here's what the liberal liar had to say. The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants, close quote. Oh my goodness. He told the Senate during debate, he said, quote, it will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs, close quote. The sentiment was echoed by Lyndon B. Johnson, who upon signing the act on October 3rd, 1965, said the bill would not be revolutionary. He said, quote, it does not affect the lives of millions. It will not reshape the structure of our daily lives or add importantly to either our wealth or our power, uh, close quote. Yeah, yeah, they lied. They lied. Uh, they lied because that's what Democrats do. That's what Democrats do. They lie. And that, that act destroyed, helped to destroy America. And we've been fighting back against that ever since. I know that America has had its, has had its moments in time. I know that we haven't always been or lived up to our, uh, our promises or our potential. But you know the benefit of living in the United States of America compared to any where else in the United States of, uh, compared to anywhere else in the world. I want you to think about this, and my wife reminded me, you need to say this more. When you say this, it makes sense. Our Constitution— think about this— our social compact that is the United States Constitution, it is the only document ever invented among men that allows for an amendment process that says, you know what, We screwed up. We want to get this right before God, and we want to get this right with our citizenry. No other nation does that. We'll be back. Welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. I'm your Your best guess, host Carl Jackson sitting in for the great Dennis Prager. I'll just say, listen, I love Dennis Prager. I love his wife Sue. I pray for their safety, frankly. And listen, I'll be blunt. I hope they're armed. I've been listening to a lot of these ex-spacers lately. And David Pollack right here at AM 950, The Answer, great programming here. The American Adversaries, Matt Matt Buff, Charles Hart, Roger Franklin Williams, TheAnswerOrlando.com, uh, plenty of, uh, Dr. Ken Beeheck. Lots of great shows, lots of great, uh, great programming. But some of the stuff that I've heard on some of these X spaces has been amazing, and some of it just downright evil. I mean, I've heard some of the propagandists, uh, for Hamas and Hezbollah, uh, basically on some of these, uh, some of these X spaces. It, it's It's insane. It's insane. Uh, and there are— there is no one more persecuted in the United States, uh, than Jewish people. I mean, it's just the Black people, you can breathe a sigh of relief. You Black liberals, you can, you can breathe a sigh of relief. Uh, the people that are, uh, that are, uh, that the left— or I should say that the, uh, jihadists are really going after are, are Jewish people. And sadly, I feel like this is coming here. So anyway, I want to Thank Dennis Prager for allowing me to sit behind his microphone. I know that he's a brave man, but given what's happening in the country, I do hope he's armed. I'll be, I'll be completely blunt with you. Sean McConnell's in my ear. Lou's got my back right here at AM 950, TheAnswerOrlando.com. Alan Estrin, thank you so much for inviting me to come back on the program. Uh, and Tony's on the lines, and great job, Tony. I know you've been handling a lot, uh, callers. I will get back to you shortly. Thomas, Betty, Nancy, and Vincent, uh, you are next, so I will get to you. Actually, I will be going to Betty first. Uh, she's been waiting the longest, I believe, so I want to make sure that I get to her first. So we'll be, we'll be coming to her. Just a little history of this immigration, uh, uh This Immigration Act of 1965, and you can go to history.com, you can go to different places to read about it. Quite frankly, it's sad to say, but history.com has a more woke version of it. It's just true. But at the time, again, you had the liberal liar of the Senate, Ted Kennedy, say the bill would not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs, quote unquote. The sentiment was also echoed by then-President Lyndon B. Johnson, who signed the act into law on October 3rd, 1965, said the bill would not be revolutionary. Again, he said, quote, it does not affect the lives of millions. It will not reshape the structure of our daily lives or add importantly to either our wealth or our power, close quote. Uh, but the act, also known as the Hart-Celler Act after its sponsors, uh, Senator Philip Hart, a Democrat from Michigan, also Representative Emanuel Cellar, a Democrat from New York, put an end to longstanding national origin quotas that favored those from northern and western Europe, and it led to a significant immigration demographic shift in America. Uh, since the act was passed, according to Pew Research, immigrants living in America have more than quadrupled, now accounting for approximately 14% of the population. This is as of 2019. In 1960, Pew notes, 84% of U.S. immigrants were born in Europe or Canada, 6% were from Mexico, 3.8% were from South and East Asia, 3.5% were from Latin America, 2.7% were from other parts of the world. However, in 2017, European and Canadian immigrants totaled 13.2%, while Mexicans totaled 25.3%. Other Latin Americans totaled 25.1%. Asians totaled 27.4%, and other populations totaled 9%. And guys, the bigger issue here isn't, isn't race or ethnicity per se, but it's ideas. What are you bringing into the country? What belief systems are you bringing into the United States of America? And I really do believe that those belief systems need to be vetted. I'm sorry, Sharia law is not compatible with the US Constitution. Adios. Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you. You're a communist, you're a Marxist. We've already got enough in this country already that unfortunately are legal citizens, so we have to keep those fools. But you, we don't have to, and we shouldn't. And we can't have Republicans that are scared to say just that. Maybe you have to do it in a way in which it's not as mean-sounding, for lack of better words here, but, but it has to be done. We cannot allow what's happening on this border to continue, and it's going to continue sadly, at least through 2024, but there needs to be an immediate stop to it. And again, I would prefer a moratorium in the first hour. I offered some other ideas, things that should and could happen some immigration reform, uh, if you will. Uh, but I would prefer a moratorium of 7 to 10 years while we work through this and while we deport as many people that came into this country illegally as possible. And we won't get all of them. And I, quite frankly, I'm not even sure that we would have the political will. Many on the Republican side, I don't care how conservative they claim to be, I, I'm, I'm just not convinced of it. I haven't seen it, but it has to happen. It is a necess— it's a necessity. Otherwise we're gonna be looking like London. Where you have hundreds of thousands of people protesting in the freaking streets. These people are multiplying like jackrabbits, and eventually it's going to be lost. The UK is going to be lost. I, I mean, it's, it's almost over, said and done. I don't want that to happen to the United States of America, but if we are ashamed of our ideas and then we bring in people or import people that hate our ideas The country won't last long. It's really that simple. It's really that simple. Let me do this real quick. Let me go to Betty. Betty has been waiting patiently. Betty is in St. Petersburg. Betty, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show. You got the mic.

Thank you. Yeah, I just wanted to first say thank you for what you said a while ago about bringing up children to know the Lord Jesus and to take them to church. That's probably the best advice anybody could give. And I totally agree with you about our laws aren't based on Sharia. Sharia law or aren't— don't have anything to do with Sharia law, and hopefully never will, because our laws— our country was based on Judeo-Christian laws and the God of the Bible. And I think what we're seeing is a spiritual vacuum in this country because people have turned away from God. And so because of that vacuum, we have evil is permeating our culture. So the solution is to get back to God, but the true God of the Bible, and, and, and the way and the Ten Commandments and what the Bible teaches. And then I just want to say too, I just wanted to add, the Bible in 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, if my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. And I think that's advice that we need to take today. We need to return to God. Thank you.

Amen. Thank you, Betty. I appreciate you being out there. And she is absolutely right. And for those of you that are offended, if you're atheist or agnostic, you can go to places like Gaza, see how they feel about you. I mean, if you're atheist, agnostic, that's fine. I get it. You're welcome. The Judeo-Christian value system allows people to think freely here in the United States. We are not a theocracy like you see in the Middle East. So I would say you're welcome. You know, you get to worship or not worship freely in the United States of America, and that is under attack. That is really under attack. And a lot of it has to do, sadly, sadly, with, with, with leftism and the Democrat Party as it exists today. Thomas, Nancy, and Vincent, I will get to you shortly here. Guys, if you'll just let me know who's been waiting the longest, and if you want to call into the show, 1-800-PRAGER-776, 1-800-PRAGER-776. I want to get to this because it's really, really important, and that, that's a— okay, thank you. And that's the Second Amendment. So Nancy, you will be next. Nancy from Philadelphia. I just want to at least start off talking about this because You had VP Kamala Harris in a knee-jerk response to the main shooter last week, and I shouldn't say main shooter, the mass murderer Robert Card had an extensive history of mental illness. And it's weird, it is so weird. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but it is really weird how people like this keep slipping through the cracks when there's plenty of information to stop them before they commit a mass murdering situation. like Robert Carr did in Maine, and they ended up finding his, uh, body apparently by suicide at his workplace. They had searched it a couple times before, uh, so I don't know if he wasn't there or what, but they finally found him there deceased. Uh, but anyway, you had VP Harris that gave a knee-jerk response to the mass murderer that used that gun in Maine to shoot and kill 18 people last week. Uh, and what she did was praise the gun bans in Australia. I want to tell you why this is a complete and utter lie and the gun bans never worked in Australia. We'll be back. Welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for the great Dennis Prager. The number to call in, 1-800-PRAGER-7777. -1618-Prager-776. I'm sorry, I'm just checking stuff online here. Sadly, uh, the girl, uh, Shawnee, I believe, Luke, uh, the, uh, she was the tattoo artist whose body sadly was, uh, seen in the pickup truck with her legs broken. And, uh, obviously there were things done to her. Uh, anyway, they, they found a portion of her, her body, a bone that connects the upper torso and the skull. So, so the IDF have come to the conclusion and the medical examiners that she's gone. I had, I had heard a little while ago when I was on an X-space with some, some people, upper echelons, I guess, of Israel, that they suspected that was the case. They've got confirmation. Apparently they found a bone that connects the— and I'm sorry to be so graphic, but I do think that we can't turn away from this evil. We need to know who these Islamic jihadists are, these people that are actually, in the bigger scheme of things— I'll get to that shortly— that are useful idiots, I believe, for China. And right now, the war is Israel and Iran. I do believe that Hamas and Hezbollah Uh, which sadly the United States government continues to form the Lebanese Armed Forces. That needs to stop today. The Lebanese Armed Forces are Hezbollah. Why we're contributing to the demise of our biggest ally in the Middle East is beyond me, because they are coming for every single one of us. I've been going through these how to survive a terrorist attack. I'll try to get to some of this very short period of time. One of the things— some terror attack in many cases will be unavoidable. Sadly, there won't be much you will be able to do. That's why it's so important that the first thing you do is just to always be aware of your surroundings. It says this: the attack will likely happen when least expected, most of the time on a seemingly normal day. Many people will be wounded or die very quickly. Chaos will reign for several days, if not longer. Schools, restaurants, stores, etc., will simply shut down. Law enforcement and military units will likely swarm the city. Entire streets will be closed off and sections of the city shut— city shut— will be shut down. Many buildings will be set ablaze or possibly even collapse. No, I'm not talking about the BLM riots of 2020, by the way. The recovery period will be long and brutal. It will take months for things to return to normal. It does sound like the BLM riots, doesn't it? Look no further than the state of emergency announced by France in the aftermath of the November terrorist attacks. Your city following the aftermath will be permanently scarred. You, your family, and your neighbors will live in fear that your city will be attacked again in the future. If you're nearby when the attack happens, you may contract PTSD. I'll go over— I'll try to just pepper in throughout the remainder of the show some of the things that you will need to do to survive a terrorist attack, but I encourage you to Google this I'm not a conspiracy theorist, and I never thought honestly a couple of years ago that I would even be talking like this on radio, let alone national radio. But I do believe that we're under real threat and we need to, uh, we need to make sure that we're paying attention to our surroundings because let's face it, guys, we don't know who the heck we're letting into the United States or who Joe Biden is letting into the United States at this point in time. It's just It's just a scary thought. And again, I'll go— I'll be going to you shortly here, callers. Nancy will be going to you next here. Again, VP Harris had a knee-jerk reaction after this mass shooting in Maine, and here's what she had to say. Gun violence has terrorized and traumatized so many of our communities in this country, she said. This was last Thursday. And let us be clear, does not have to be this way, as our friends in Australia have demonstrated. And what the vice president was referring to is a series of what they call gun buyback programs in Australia. The regulations followed a 1996 firearms massacre in Tasmania where 35 people died, and they began with the National Firearms Agreement of 1996 that declared semi-automatic weapons illegal and prompted the surrender of close to 650,000 firearms. So what you'll hear oftentimes are people on the left say gun buybacks work, or gun confiscation works, gun control works. All you have to do is look at places like Australia. And I can even say here, I live in Orlando. Orlando is more liberal than many parts of Florida, and they've offered, you know, sneakers for Sneakers for guns, you know, they'll give people gift cards and, and it's the dumbest, it's the dumbest thing ever because the Sheriff's Office in Orange County will pretend like they're doing some great service to the community. You know, you know who's coming up to give their guns away? It's usually elderly people or, you know, maybe some soft-hearted big glass heart liberal that thinks they're doing a service by returning or giving back this gun that they purchased or so on, etc. Uh, it basically— it's law-abiding citizens that are straight up useful idiots that want to feel good about themselves. Now they just have to go away from these buyback programs hoping they won't get carjacked. It's the dumbest thing ever. And the sheriff's office, in my opinion, should be ashamed of themselves because they're not doing jack squat. Now I understand guns are stolen. I, I, I get that criminals steal guns, so on, etc. you can lock your gun up, you can keep your gun holstered and on you as a concealed weapons carrier where that is not a major issue. But I'm sorry to tell you, Sheriff's Office, you're doing no favors to society by taking guns of law-abiding citizens. Pat yourselves on the back all you want to, it ain't stopping crime and you know it. It's a total joke. It's a total joke. It's a total buy-in. Uh, it, it's absolutely insane. All right, since then, Australia Nation has tightly restricted this since 1996. Their gun buyback has restricted gun ownership, had to the Daily Signal, and continued buyback legally owned guns and confiscate illegally owned firearms. But the measures have not been very effective at all at reducing the number of legally held firearms in the nation. I want to get to that after the break. But before we get to the break, I want to give Nancy some time. Nancy, we only have a minute. I won't have time to explain this. I'm going to go to your call. Nancy has been waiting patiently in Philadelphia. Nancy, thank you so much. You got the mic. Uh-oh, Nancy, are you there? All right, we'll, we'll wait. Go ahead, Nancy.

Thank you, Carl. Um, and I, and I don't thank Joe Biden, the head of what I call Traitors Anonymous. Um, you know, you have, you have to know that all Christians are also on the list to be viciously slaughtered by the Islamists and their supporters. So I don't know if I missed it, but are you able to address, um, what the leaders of the various Christian churches are saying or doing about the blatant hate, anti-Semitism, anti-Americanism being conducted here and abroad?

Listen, Nancy, this is such a great point. I I've got to tell you that I've been woefully, woefully disappointed. You saw that. You heard that big word, Sean. I've been woefully disappointed in the Christian church, the way that we acquiesced to COVID lockdowns. And sadly, I don't feel like there are enough leaders in Christian ministry that are speaking up against this. It saddens me, but this is where we're at. Find a good Bible-believing church that's able to connect the dots between what's happening in the world and connect the dots in the Bible. This is going to be absolutely crucial. It's why I enjoy men's groups like Frank Sontag Kingdom Men's Gathering. We're gonna have to look for people like that and great pastors. There's still some that exist, you just got to find them. I welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. The number to call in: 1-800-PRAGER-7761. Dennis Prager, 776. I was just reading through this column, uh, really quickly on Breitbart, how the police in Maine had alerted in mid-September, uh, that the Maine murderer, uh, could snap. Uh, so, uh, they got an alert, actually the police did, from the National Guard saying this dude could snap. Um, he's going to be, in their opinion, a mass shooter. And for some reason this didn't trigger what's called the yellow flag laws, uh, in, in Maine, which allows police, uh, to petition for temporary confiscation of a person's firearms. So it's just— the story just gets weirder and weirder. I mean, the guy was involuntarily hospitalized for a couple of weeks in the summer. Uh, this— I don't know, this makes no sense to me. I guess incompetence? It— this doesn't make any sense to me. Another report from the IDF, apparently, uh, praise God, one of their soldiers was rescued, uh, was rescued earlier, uh, and this is a female soldier, a Private Ori, uh, Migadish, uh, who had been at an observation post that was attacked by Hamas terrorists on the 7th. So she has been, uh, rescued apparently. So I'm thankful Thankful to hear, thankful to hear that. Any good news out of there is amazing. Trump ballot disqualification trial begins in Colorado. So real questions if the Constitution disqualifies Trump from the presidency. And again, you know, this is what the left is salivating to do. This is what they want to do. Also, Attorney General Ken Paxton in Texas has had a victory really quickly after being reinstated as the attorney general, as the establishment perpetuated this hit job on him, he got a victory when it comes to Joe Biden cutting down fences that Texas puts up, these barbed wire fences to protect their state from illegal immigrants coming into the country. All right, let me do this real quick because I want to go on with this. Let's go to Vincent and Thomas. You guys have been waiting a long time. I want to make sure I take your calls real quick. Before I move on. If you could be quick with your calls, I would appreciate it. Vincent, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show. You've got the mic.

Hey, hey, Carl. I just want to say to everyone, America was not created with cowardice, and it cannot remain with cowardice. And a lot of what you're talking about is the bottom line to all this is the lack of courage. To me, the 2020 fraud election is the root of most of this chaos— people dying in Ukraine, on open borders. Israel. And, and cowardice from our government, media, uh, courts, uh, have caused this to balloon into a much worse situation if they have stood up at the right time.

Yeah, I, I, I'm afraid that, uh, listen, if you would have told me that America could sink this low this quickly, um, I would have said you're wrong, but I was wrong. Let's go to Thomas. Thank you, Benson. Let's go to Thomas. Thomas is in Mountain Lake, Virginia. Thomas, welcome, uh, to the Dennis Prager Show. You've got the mic. Well, thank you, Carl.

I really appreciate all you're doing. Um, you have a, uh, you have passion with truth, so thank you so much for doing— thank you. I wanted to, um, I want to address a question that someone asked you last hour or so about the free exercise, you know, prohibiting the free exercise thereof, right? And so I think you actually know the answer, but the answer— I'm a student of the Constitution, and the answer is in the context. Okay, so in order, you know, for our Constitution to come into force, we had to have that Declaration of Independence, correct? Sure. So the Declaration of Independence says, we hold these truths that all men are created equal, etc., etc., etc. So if there is a religion that doesn't adhere to those constitutional principles, then that religion can be prohibited because it's not really religion.

You know, listen, it is a fair argument, and it makes sense. It makes sense to me. And again, it's something that I'm going to study more deeply. I want to see if there's something that the founders said specifically to address it. but I appreciate the call. Thank you so much. Okay, thank you, bro. All right, okay, so now listen, all right, so this Harris, this, this main, this main shooting and all this kind of stuff, the Australian gun buyback program, let me just give you, uh, some stats, all right? So the number of gun-owning households in Australia actually did decrease after the gun buyback program or gun confiscation program by half. All right, but 27 years later, the number of guns owned by Australians almost doubled. It does not work. It didn't work. Oh, and by the way, more guns and there's less crime. We'll talk about that when we get back. Carl Jackson in for Dennis Prager.

Good night.

Welcome back to the Dennis Prager Show. I'm your guest host, Carl Jackson. Jackson sitting in for Dennis Prager. The number to call in, 1-800-APRAGER-776. As we enter the last stretch, and what I'm going to do actually is I'm— I'll just tweet out. So please follow me on, uh, Twitter, or X now, uh, formerly known as Twitter, uh, @CarlJacksonShow or @TheCarlJacksonShow. You can find me on all things social media, that is Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, you name it. I would appreciate the follow so much. So you can check it out there. I'll make sure that I exit out after the program. So because I just won't have time to get to it, I'm going to combine a couple of stories. And I was chatting back and forth with Dennis, actually Nostradennis of the American Effort series on this gun issue. He says this rash of shootings, in my opinion, was permitted and coordinated. I know I'm crazy. They'd never go that far for power, right? He asked the question, and Nashra Dennis is our official conspiracy theorist at the station. But listen, this stuff is absolutely crazy. It's bonkers, uh, in my opinion. He thinks the family should sue, uh, since the state didn't follow up on things that they should have done. I'm not a fan of red flag laws, yellow flag laws, which really sound the same to me as red flag laws. It seems to me there's typically people that should be institutionalized or make threats along the way where you could legitimately hospitalize them or jail them. And this didn't appear to happen even with the yellow flag laws in place. Now, just real quickly, because I do want to get to the warfare by immigration— still have not gotten to that— but let me just wrap this up with Kamala Harris. And the reason why the left wants to focus on these mass shootings— and by the way, they don't have the moral authority to tell you to disarm yourself. These are people that are so concerned about murder that they're pro-choice. I mean, up until the point of birth in many cases. These are the very people whose crime rates and murder rates in their blue cities the media won't even talk about. What about Chicago? You don't even hear the media talking about Chicago. They virtually have a mass shooting nearly every freaking weekend. and the media doesn't talk about it. It's only the stories like this that will fit their narrative where they're like, oh my God, you know, we gotta, we gotta do something about guns, but not when the vast majority of, a vast majority of murders, uh, murders are happening in their cities. And by the way, even when Kamala Harris talked about violence and gun violence, quote unquote, as if a gun, an inanimate object, could just jump off of a shelf and kill people. What she fails to talk about when it comes to the numbers of young people that are being killed, it's crime in blue cities. And that's— the left aren't doing anything. Sadly, they aren't strict enough on crime. They aren't locking people up when they commit crimes with guns to the extent that they should. And it's absolutely insane. But going back to this gun buyback stuff, this stuff absolutely doesn't work. And you've heard that Australia has been safer when it comes to, uh, when it comes to mass shootings. That's the, that's the argument that the left always makes, and it's because of their gun buyback program or gun confiscation program. But what these people fail to realize is that yes, half the citizens gave back their guns, the other half bought even more, so the number of guns in Australia have actually doubled. And the crime has not increased when it comes to gun violence. The stuff just doesn't work. These people just, they, they just say stuff because they don't expect you to go back, uh, and do the research. And by the way, as mentioned in this, uh, column by, uh, The Daily Signal, there is approximately anywhere from 500,000 to 3 million good gun stops self-defense uses annually. But think about that— 500,000 to 3 million gun stops every year where a law-abiding citizen either brandishes a gun or, or even a police officer uses a gun to stop a crime. But those never get talked about because you would have to talk about them on the news incessantly. So people, uh, you are more than likely to run into a criminal, and you'll have an opportunity to defend yourself if you have a firearm. And you should be trained, you should be licensed, yada yada yada, all of that good stuff. But you should be armed, and you should make sure that you practice your Second Amendment right. That is a, uh, that is a God-given, that is a God-given gift. All right, your ability to be able to defend yourself however possible, as efficiently as possible. And it's why I like the Second Amendment. Make sure you— make sure you protect it. And even if you say, Carl, I don't want a gun, I don't want anything to do with a gun, that's fine. You make sure you stand up for the Second Amendment regardless. All right, now let me move on to this American Mind hat tip, Warfare by Immigration. Let me just read you the summary. "During the Cold War, when America and the West took their national survival more seriously," the columnist writes, "a key part of the Soviet Union's global terrorist network was the PLO." The PLO, or the Palestinian Liberation Organization, for those of you that are not familiar with the PLO acronym, and various offshoots were supported in their efforts by their Islamic allies, he writes, in Libya under Muammar Gaddafi, the Red Brigades in Italy, the Sandinista National Front in Nicaragua, Badr Meinhof Group in West Germany, and the Provisional Irish Republican Army in Northern Ireland, he writes. Even Communist China, though not the superpower it is today, he says, supplied the Palestinians with military equipment and logistical support. Such was the unity of the Communist world and its allies. But now he flips the script. Now the roles have flipped between China and Russia. Now the CCP is the chief organizer of, of, uh, of this, uh, communist wave, if you will. Xi Jinping has positioned, uh, Communist China as an enemy of the U.S. He also declared a people's war against the U.S. in 2019, and he seeks to marginalize and demoralize anyone who stands with the United States and against China's march toward global domination. China needs the Islamic jihadists to help take down the West. So even though I believe what you're seeing occur in the Middle East is a war against Israel and Iran, all right, Hamas and Hezbollah are just proxies, but what you're witnessing is a war against Israel and Iran. But this is a war that China wants. China's support today of Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Islamic Republic of Iran demonstrates their role as leader of a global communist movement allied with the Islamic world, which seeks to destroy America and the West. Guys, I stand with Israel. And part of the reason that I stand with Israel is because I stand with Western civilization. We'll be back. You can go to the show's website, uh, prageropia.com, where you can get the show's podcast uninterrupted. Also prageru.com, 5-minute videos that are changing the world. Please get your kids addicted in a good way to PragerU videos. I think it'll do them some good, and frankly, in the long run, I believe it'll do the world some good. But this Going back to this columnist that wrote for American Mind, and basically we're watching this warfare by immigration that's taking place, and it's taking place right here in the United States against our borders. And make no mistake about it, although we're seeing this fight between Israel and Iran with the proxies being Hamas and Hezbollah, make no mistake that the left wants to bring— I'm sorry, that China wants to bring that fight here to the United States. And all of these useful idiots on college campuses, will potentially be the victims of such crimes, uh, if they were, uh, or terrorist attacks if they were to occur here. Again, he writes, China's support today of Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Islamic Republic of Iran demonstrates their role as a leader, as leader of a global communist movement allied with the Islamic world, again, which seeks to destroy America and the West. They have little reason to doubt that they are winning. Why? Because in London 100,000 protesters, most of them Muslim immigrants, defended the attack by Hamas on Israel. American cities have seen similar displays. Guys, if people will go out and protest for Hamas, for a terrorist organization, you don't think eventually these people will grow? To do that, you have to be so depraved in the first place to go out and wave signs and flags and say you're pro Palestinian, which is, uh, which is basically your pro-Hamas. It's, it's only, in my opinion, it's a hop, skip, and a jump, uh, to if you believe that stuff, acting on that. Again, an attack on Israel is an attack against the West. The columnist writes, terrorist campaigns to destroy Israel were useful to animate certain parts of the Islamic world on behalf of the protracted war the communists were waging against human freedom. These were once well-understood features of the ideological and political war between the Soviet Union and the United States, but they've been forgotten. The West presented to the world an intellectual defense of freedom of the mind, freedom of religion, and the freedom of peoples to determine how they would govern themselves. It represented man's highest aspirations. It is the thing for which men crossed oceans It was a thing for which men fought and died. Most Americans still hold these beliefs, but they're being rejected by the elites that are running our country, namely and sadly on a lot of these college and university campuses, even in corporations, and dare I say, the deep state. But during the Cold War, neither Russia nor China could fathom that we, the United States of America, would literally open our borders up and allow them to attack us so easily. Guys, call your congressmen, call your senators. This is an issue that must be addressed— the war by immigration, warfare by immigration. Until next time, don't grow weary, doing good. God bless you.
