The Dennis Prager Show LIVE

The episode opens with Dennis Prayer recalling a recent address to 700 Christian leaders in Dallas, rebranding Christians United for Israel as Christians United for America and warning of left‑wing threats. He then moves into a multi‑segment discussion that weaves together a New York Post piece about progressive women’s preference for men who act conservatively, a detailed critique of Ibram X. Kendi’s statistical claims about systemic racism, and a broader attack on critical‑race theory, diversity training, and what the hosts call a victim‑hood ideology. Guest experts Matthew Lohmeier and Sebastian Gorka trace modern race‑based grievance politics back to Marxist class analysis, arguing that today’s “victim‑hood” narrative divides the nation. A lengthy interview with Rafael Mangual of the Manhattan Institute examines the progressive push for “prosecutorial reform” and mass‑incarceration arguments, with Prager challenging the data and asserting that high U.S. crime rates—not liberal policies—drive incarceration levels. The show also features commentary from Eric Metaxas, Charlie Kirk, Donald Trump Jr., Mike Gallagher, and others on topics ranging from Joe Biden’s alleged hair‑plug origins to the concentration of violent crime in a small percentage of U.S. neighborhoods, the reopening of Las Vegas, and the role of wealthy women donors in California’s criminal‑justice reform. Throughout, callers interject with concerns about COVID‑era restrictions, school‑board battles over CRT, and economic hardships. The broadcast is punctuated by repeated promotional plugs for Salem Now streaming, Relief Factor joint‑pain supplement, gold‑investment advice, and other sponsors. The overall tone shifts between conversational, persuasive, confrontational, and promotional, maintaining a consistently critical stance toward progressive ideology and a supportive stance toward traditional Judeo‑Christian, conservative values.

Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here. Hey, who do I thank for yesterday? Oh, Mark Davis. That's right. Here it is. I still take it for granted. He does a great job that I really don't think about it. I yesterday, I spoke on the Monday night in Dallas. I spoke to the leaders, 700 leaders. Normally I speak to 5,000 members, but I spoke to 700 leaders because of COVID restrictions. In Washington, D.C., so it was moved to Dallas. I spoke to the Christians United for Israel, largest Christian group in the United States, and as I told you I would tell them, I did explain they're no longer just Christians United for Israel, they're really Christians United for America, for the Western world, and for Judeo-Christian values. And I proceeded to explain the threats to all of them that are emanating from the left in our time. And it was a sobering speech, shall we put it that way. And these are wonderful people. Afterwards, so many young people— there are a lot of young members, thank God— just lined up for selfies because of the PragerU and increasingly the radio. Which is a big service that PragerU has provided to my radio show, just as the radio show made PragerU possible. It's been a beautiful symbiotic relationship. And then I visited a friend of mine who has 4 kids of virtually the same age, 2 pairs of twins. It's with his Chinese wife. It was glorious. The kids are fantastic. It's a good way to do it, 4 at a time. They're within 6 months of— the 2 twins are within 6 months of each other. Glorious stuff. Very good, powerful stuff. The joy that he and she have from their children, and then I keep reading about, oh, the couples who were deciding not to have children. Children are at terrific risk that can have a lot of pain. And of course, the avoidance of paint is a major goal for more and more people, for more and more young people. Here's a piece in the New York Post. Why progressive women want to date men who act like conservatives. My friend Mark, 36, is a catch by many New York City standards. He's good-looking, highly educated, and a talented photographer. He's also progressive and participates in protests and gives to left-leaning causes. And Mark is looking for love. He wants to get married and have kids in a liberal city like New York. Swimming with single women wishing they weren't, one could assume Mark wouldn't have a problem finding a mate. And while he dates and recently had a couple of short-lived relationships, Mark remains single. He's trying to understand why. I'm really open-minded and cool about gender stuff on dates, but I always feel like I'm walking on eggshells, Mark told me. If I pay for dinner, it signals I don't value my date as my equal. So I'm super casual about it all. If she wants to pay or split it or whatever, that's fine with me. I told Mark that despite his best intentions, his egalitarian dating style could be the problem that's holding him back. While some women balk at any hint of traditional male gender behavior, more lament the loss of chivalry. I'm one of them. I find it attractive when a man plans our first few dates. And knowingly walks curbside when we're together. It signals he wants to protect me from passing traffic or errant puddle splashes. When I was a kid, my mom told me to always walk outside, but I assumed my generation of women would think it's too old-fashioned, Mark told me. Now I'm really confused. The female desire to feel protected and looked after is built into our DNA. Says evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller, a professor at the University of New Mexico. It's a mismatch between what progressive women say they want and what they actually respond to, Miller told me. Women's instinctive mate preferences have evolved for hundreds of thousands of years for guys who are competent, strong, good providers, good protectors, and happy with a sexual division of labor. Women want decisive men who are also compassionate and thoughtful. A 2018 study from Iowa State University backs this up, reporting that progressive women prefer men who demonstrate more traditional dating behaviors. The women found these men to be, quote, more attractive, unquote, because they signal a willingness, quote, to invest by being protective, committed, and by providing resources. Gwen Stefani presumably has no doubt of these findings. On July 3rd, the pop star who was raised in blue-state California wed country and western star Blake Shelton, a native of red-state Oklahoma, Oklahoma, who is pro-gun and a famous gentleman. Shelton even asked Stefani's father, Stefani's father, for his blessing before proposing in the Catholic wedding chapel he built for his bride. When asked what she loves most about her betrothed, Stefani gushed, he's full of love and generosity, so you feel safe. You can lean on him and trust him. Yes, indeed. Anyway, it goes on. I'll read more later in probably the Male Female Hour. That's right, they don't know what they want. Their mind has been screwed with, played with by progressive, by progressive thinking. All right, everybody, Dennis Prager Show. I mean, I was reading a piece by Ibram X. Kendi, who is sort of the guru of the Black nationalist movement, the guru of the current Black thinking on matters. He's a professor at Boston University. Ibram X. Kendi, he changed his name to that, that's not his real name, that's fine, I'm not gonna call him by— he wants to be called Ibram X. Kendi, that's fine with me. But it was done to show his nationalistic credentials. Our New Post-Racial Myth. That's what this thing is about. The signposts of racism are staring back at us in big, bold racial inequities, but some Americans are ignoring the signposts, walking on by racial inequity. That's the new thing. They, they always change the goalposts. Not inequality, it's inequity. Inequity are results. Inequality is process. Riding on by the evidence and proclaiming their belief with religious fervor, America is not a racist country, Senator Tom Cotton said in April. Mr. Dennis Prager, whom you're listening to, said for decades that the charge that America is a racist country is the greatest national lie. Since the Jews were accused of killing Christian children to use their blood to bake matzah for Passover. Biggest national lie, and we're destroying America over it. So here's his evidence: black babies— here, it's a list— black babies die at twice the rate of white babies. Now, why is that necessarily a result of racism on the part of non-Blacks? They never, never, never show why it is. They show you the inequities, the results, but they never give the reason. They claim that it's racism that caused it. Might it be, might it be related to nearly 80% of black babies are born to unwed mothers, are born in circumstances that are not conducive to their being healthy at birth? No, can't, can't say that. It's white racism. Next, roughly a fifth of Native Americans and Latino Americans are medically uninsured. Almost triple the rate of white Americans and Asian Americans. So Native Americans and Latino Americans. So why is that a result of racism? And notice he didn't include blacks. He shifted it over to Native Americans and Latino Americans. I'm shocked he didn't say Latinx. He'll— so I'm sure he'll be corrected by some of his students. They're medically uninsured. Are we responsible? Are Americans responsible for anything that is troubled in their life? By the way, does Latino Americans include illegal immigrants? I'll bet it does. We return. I'm Dennis Prager.

Las Vegas, I mean, it is open for business. It is wide open. It's unreal how different things are in a place like Las Vegas. I mean, somebody look up, Derek, see how many seats the, the O show at the Bellagio holds. How many seats are in that theater? The show is called O at the Bellagio. See how many seats it holds. It was packed. I mean, there's no social distancing going on in Las Vegas. There just isn't. Now, does that disturb you, or does that, does that make you happy? Does it bother you to know that there are communities that, like Las Vegas, that have a theater that I sat in and was in amazement at, at the Las Vegas production of Oh! at the Bellagio with 1,800 seats, and it was packed. It was sold out. There weren't seats between other seats. There weren't empty seats blocked out with stupid X marks. And incidentally, on the topic of Las Vegas, may I respectfully suggest a must-see show If you like Vegas like I do, I don't do a whole lot of gambling. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I love the theaters. I'm at the shows. I love the hotels. I love the restaurants. I love the vibe of Las Vegas. The magic of Jen Kramer at the Westgate is a must-see.

Great.
We've had 6 months of the new administration. It is the farthest thing from moderation that the government has ever seen, and it is the fastest track to extremism that we've ever had elected.
But Kevin, how How did I know that in advance? Why in my debate with David French did I know this and you knew this? There was no question in my mind. So the fact that this has now happened, you know, part of me wants to say, haha, but it's just too sad to say, haha. This is something that I warned.
So it's all laid out in this piece in The Atlantic, which constantly publishes left-wing pieces that have a veneer of intellectuality. That, that is the way I would define The Atlantic. The New York Times opinion writers are, are more street fighters. The Atlantic has this patina of intellectuality, so the Ibram X. Kendi piece is worth analyzing. He is their foremost spokesman. For America being a racist society. So this article just published is their way of explaining it, and it sounds very effective to his students, I am sure, at Boston University, and to your kids who go, oh my God, black babies die at twice the rate of white babies. That proves that there's racism in America. We don't care about black babies dying. No evidence is given for how exactly racism produces this. A fifth of Native Americans and Latino Americans are medically uninsured. Does he include illegal immigrants in the Latino Americans? What if he does? Do you think it's an honest condemnation of the United States? Almost triple the rate of white Americans and Asian Americans. Native people— see, he switches when he can't find the data for blacks, so he goes to Native Americans. Native Americans are nearly 3 times as likely as white people to be impoverished. It would be interesting to see if— does that include Native Americans living on Indian reservations? Be nice to find out. And we have, we have a video at PragerU about the Bureau of Indian Affairs and how it has messed up Indians' lives. Anyway, is it, is it a result of America being racist? Was America bad to the Native American? Yes, it was. Notice the use of the past tense verb was. The life expectancy of Black Americans is much lower than that of white Americans—74.5 years versus 78.6 years. I presume they count the babies who prematurely die. Does this any— is this because of racism, that there's a 4-year difference in black life expectancy and white life expectancy? Is it a result? That's the question, isn't it? If it's not a result of that, then this whole thing is essentially a lie. White Americans account for 77% of the voting members of of Congress, even though they represent 60% of the U.S. population. Well, that really shows there's racism. My God. White members of Congress— he had to dig deep for this one— white members of Congress, voting members of Congress, account for 77%, but they're only 60% of the U.S. population. Wow, you know what, it's very interesting that he doesn't go into anti-Semitism here. How Jews are, I think, 3% of the population, and I'm sure that they are more than 3% of the voting members of Congress. So does that— what does that prove? Really, what does that prove other than Jews are very active in politics and seem to win elections? In the United States, black college graduates owe an average of $25,000 more in student loans than white college students. There you go. Boy, if there was ever evidence of racism in America, that's it. Black college students owe more in student loans than white college students. Well, why is that evidence of racism? Really? Why? I, I— he gives— they never give— I, I read to you this stuff every day. They, they never give evidence for their assertions. They just make assertions. Like Larry Elder twists facts about black criminality rates in the— where was that published again? Oh, LA Times, by one of their columnists. She provides zero evidence of his twisting facts. She lied. He didn't flat out lie about Larry Elder. That's all they do is lie because it works. Who's gonna catch them? The New York Times? NPR? Native Americans die from police violence at 3 times the rate of white people. Now why do you think that is? You think the police have this thing for killing Native Americans? Why do you think that is? If it's true, why is it? Oh, it's a Native American, we'll shoot him dead. Black people die at 2.6 times the rate. Are black people involved in violence at a greater rate than white people, given their percentage of the population? Of course they are. Might that not account for it? No, it's racism. Latino people at 1.3 times the rate. Oh my God, that's extensive police racism. To say there is widespread racial inequity caused by widespread racism, which he has not proved in one instance, which makes the United States racist, isn't an opinion, isn't a partisan position, isn't a doctrine, isn't a left-wing construct, isn't anti-white, and isn't anti-American. It is a fact. There you go. It's a fact. It's a fact because The Atlantic publishes it and says it's a fact. Widespread racism. That's why Latinos are less medically insured than whites, because of widespread racism. But if it isn't true, it is a partisan position, it is an opinion, it is a doctrine, it is a left-wing construct, it is anti-white, and it is anti-American. There are people tired of quarantining their racist beliefs. Anxious about being held accountable by wokeism and cancel culture, both of which he puts in quotes. There is no cancel culture. Yearning to get back to the normality of blaming Black inferiority for racial inequity. Who blames Black inferiority for racial inequity? How come I haven't met any? See what he does? He's a liar. Ibram X. Kendi lies for a living, and this article is a perfect example. So we blame Black inferiority? Back in a moment.

And I just, I just want to say that, you know, this weekend we had outstanding weather. The crowds were fantastic. Everyone was just well behaved. Wow. I was on my tower, I was on my tower and I was looking north and I saw the thousands and thousands of people with their umbrellas, you know, thousands of people in the water just enjoying. The kids were playing, the kids were running around and happy cries and screams were going on. Mike, in my binoculars, you know, you got a picture of this, you got the, you got the the city, the city line, and the beach, and the ocean. But in my binoculars, I saw all of this going on, and then in the center was the, was the American flag waving. And it just, Mike, it just brought me to tears sitting in my tower watching this. And yeah, just thinking, thinking about all the people who disrespect our flag. And like your last caller, all the, all the men who died for this country. It just brought me to tears sitting in the, sitting on the tower watching all this going on. And you know what?

I had studied Marxist history beginning with Marx and Engels' Communist Manifesto from 1848. And when I first studied that and saw in Section 1 of the Manifesto what you can recognize as what's called the oppressor versus oppressed narrative of human history, a whole bunch of stuff that was taking place in in our country began to become exceptionally clear to me. And I began to piece together a lot of the, what I'll call militant impulse that was manifesting in society as time went on. And there's a victimhood ideology. There's constantly an effort by some individuals who have an agenda to pit groups of people against one another as victims or oppressed groups and oppressor groups. And we've seen very clearly over the past calendar year who the oppressor group is labeled to be and who the oppressed groups are labeled to be. And right now, under the auspices of diversity and inclusion training, as well as critical race theory and other narratives of America, Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager.
These are the moments when I think I have done you a service. The number of people who would slog through this article is very small. It's, it's to bathe in lies. The Ibram X. Kendi piece. That's why he would never debate someone like Larry Elder, let alone— well, not let alone, Larry's on a terrifically high level, but any black conservative. He would never debate them. They don't debate. I make this point regularly. The left, almost no prominent leftist— I'm not talking about leftists, you know, who have 2,000 followers on the internet. There's no prominent leftist I know who debates conservatives, let alone anyone in the race industry. It would be actually difficult to watch as you watch them be challenged on every lie that they offer. For years I asked, do the left believe their lies? And I increasingly believe that they do. The ease with which people talk themselves into things is one of the less impressive aspects of human nature. So this is all about the racism in America, and he fears that there are still Americans who don't don't get it, who say America is not racist. The last point I read to you was that people who speak about wokeism and cancel culture are, quote, yearning to get back to the normality of blaming Black inferiority for racial inequity. Of course, The Atlantic capitalizes Black. This is new and it catches on overnight. The changes— they believe in change. Their bored souls thrive on change. Something I realized about people on the left many years ago. Black inferiority, really? Racial inequity? He, he has done a sleight of hand. He has changed Black behavior. For racial inequity. Yes, that's right. To a large extent, Black behavior is responsible for Black inequity. The reason more Blacks are in violent confrontation with police is because more Blacks proportionately are involved in violence. Period. End of issue. This is not an issue of Black inferiority. It is a matter of black behavior. These believers are going after these people with disinformation. See, that's us. They are putting words— another lie is coming up— they are putting words in the mouths of Black Lives Matter activists. By the way, Black Lives Matter just published the piece while I was gone this week. I was gone for a day. They took advantage of it. And it was to blame the United States for the demonstrations in Cuba, that it's really a terrific country, a country of great equality. People aren't demanding freedom in a communist totalitarian state. Black Lives Matter loves communist states. Black Lives Matter is a communist movement, or more accurately, it's just a hate group, period, end of issue. Do you know how many people could say Black Lives Matter is a hate group and not get canceled? You have to have a talk show, basically. Most of this country knows Black Lives Matter is a hate group. It's one of the great truths that you can't utter. They are putting words in the mouths of Black Lives Matter activists, critical race theorists, the writers of the 1619 Project, and anti-racist intellectuals, and attacking the words they put in our mouths. But didn't he just put words in our mouths that we think Blacks are inferior? This is utter projection. Representative Ralph Norman of South Carolina claims that we believe people with white skin are inherently racist. You don't? This man an idiot? I mean, it's one thing to be a liar, it's another to be an idiot. You don't believe that whites are inherently racist? All whites are racist. That is what is told students in virtually every college in this country. So what, what did the, what did the, uh, let's see, was he representative in South Carolina, add inherently? Oh, okay. We're not inherently racist. We've chosen to be racist. So that's even worse, correct? Inherently is not as bad. Can't blame yourself. Can't blame the person. All whites are racist is a mantra of Ibram X. Kendi's ideological allies. It is a mantra. All right, everybody, relieffactor.com, 800-500-8384.

Hello, my friends. Hello, my friends. Hello, my friends. Hello, my friends. Hello. Here are some facts that Ibram X. Kendi not only neglect in his lie about America being racist. He— this is why he would never debate Larry Elder. Never. There's no sum of money, maybe a million dollars, but I don't think so because his reputation would be lost forever. He would look like the ignoramus he is. This is from Larry Elder. This is where the LA Times said he twisted facts and gave zero evidence for it. As I said, either this woman Guerrero of the LA Times is lying, or Larry Elder is lying. So I love clarity. Fact: Blacks kill twice as many whites as whites kill blacks. Fact: Blacks are 13% of the population. They commit 50% of the murders. Fact: Of the 50% of black homicides, They're mostly committed by young black men. This means roughly 3% of the population is responsible for 50% of the nation's homicides. Now, either I read a lie to you or the truth, right? This is not a complex question. Who's lying to you, the left or us? Larry Elder and I lying to you, or is the left lying to you? That's why they don't debate us. They don't have the intellectual bases with which to debate us on any subject. Florida governor— he— I'm continuing the Ibram X. Kendi piece in Atlantic. Think the Atlantic would publish Larry Elder on the subject? Interesting question, though. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis claims that we believe, quote, all our institutions are bankrupt and illegitimate. That's pretty true about the left, except the irony is now both of us believe it. I think our institutions are bankrupt, and I'm on the right because the left has rendered them illegitimate. You think the FBI is as honest as it once was? Think the CIA is? Think the Department of Justice is? You think the American Medical Association is? Think the American Psychoanalytic Association is? Name, name the association. It's time for America to discard the left-wing myth of systemic racism, former Vice President Mike Pence tweeted tweeted on June 3rd. America is not a racist nation. America is the most just, righteous, noble, and inclusive nation that has ever existed on the face of the earth. That's what I've been saying for years. That's correct. We've heard this before, writes Ibram X. Kendi. America's not a racist nation is the new America is a post-racial nation. We are witnessing the birth of the new post-racial project. The post-racial myth was embedded so deeply into the American consciousness that when Trump ran a racist campaign and won 8 years later— what was his racist campaign? They again, no evidence. They don't even have an underline for you to go to a website that reports that how it was racist. How was it racist? He attacked John McCain, and by the way, wrongly so. Is that racist? John McCain is white. What was racist about his campaign? The only charge I ever heard to prove that it was a racist campaign was his description of some of those who come across the border from Mexico as rapists and so on. And I thought he did overgeneralize. But that was it. That was the entirety. And it wasn't because of their race. Countless people were shocked. The myth of a post-racial America died with Trump's election. Really? The racist Trump did more for Blacks than the anti-racist Obama. Correct or incorrect? Correct or incorrect? It has now been resurrected, paving the conceptual way for Trump's return. And the ruin of this nation. Okay, I think the left ruins the nation. He thinks Trump ruins the nation. And those are what I excerpted from a 3,000— nearly 3,000-word piece. That is what the left tells people with zero substance, zero backing. Zero evidence. This is what your kids are learning at college. Actually, there was a piece— oh, I got to find that one— there was a piece I read about college and what it does to men in particular. I— look, I've, I've long said it ruins women, but the The, uh, What's in Store for Your Sons is in First Things, a great journal too. He's an author. In the 1970s, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson playfully warned mothers about the downsides of the cowboy business. Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys. Don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks. Make them be doctors and lawyers and such. I've been a professor at Bucknell University for 20 years. Yes, he's not annoyed, he's a professor. And alas, I find myself singing that tune with new lyrics. Mamas, don't let your male babies grow up to attend a woke liberal arts college. It is my considered view that a parent with the best interests of a male child at heart should be intensely concerned about what he is likely to experience at a school like the one in which I work. Young men in institutions like mine are mercilessly stereotyped. They are compelled to unquestioningly acquiesce to fundamentally anti-male social justice doctrines that are in the process of becoming the raison d'être the reason for being of such institutions. This is quite a powerful piece. We should put it up. Is a professor sending your boys to college? What it will do.

One-third of California small businesses will never reopen. One-third. Many of the things that Gavin Newsom did had nothing whatever to do with science. You've heard me interview small business owners who said he imposed lockdowns and mandates and then loosened them and then reimposed them and then loosened them so nobody knew what the hell to do. The science suggested that schools could have remained open. We already have a situation where 75% of Black kids in California cannot read at state levels of proficiency. Nearly half of all kids in California cannot read at state levels of proficiency, and yet schools were shut down for a full year. And the left is always talking about leveling the playing field, making sure that things are equal. How in the world are you going to get equal when you have prevented Black kids, Hispanic kids from having in-school learning for over a year? And everybody knows this video learning is not the same. This is a state where you drive around in a city like LA, Bay Area, underneath an overpass, on the left and on the right, whole bunch of homeless people, one after another after another after another, posing threats to their safety, to the safety of the non-homeless. It's non-hygienic. And then don't get me started on crime. Crime up dramatically in cities in LA year to year. Shooting victims up 50% in LA.

Two things are happening. One is that parents across the board are starting to speak up and not take this anymore. You've seen in Loudoun, Virginia, on the critical race theory issue just the last couple of weeks, school board meetings where parents have lined up by the hundreds. They are unloading on these school boards. People, I have seen people activate in ways that I didn't see them in the prosperous years of President Trump. People are mad. This is not the way life goes. And to your point about girls that are competing with all of their might and they're falling short, they're not just giving up on the dream of winning that race, they're losing college scholarship opportunities. 2 years ago in Connecticut, in the high school girls track division, 15 state all-time records were shattered by 2 boys that ran as girls in that division. But the leaders of the state let this happen.
Kevin, can you imagine adult grown men and women elected to these positions, intelligent professional people let this happen. Those people should be hung out to dry. Those people should have.
Reading to you, Ibram X. Kendi, the guru of the America is a piece of crap movement, and He wrote that we thought we were in a post-racial society and then they elected the racist Donald Trump. And I said I thought that the charge, which is a total lie, the guy's not a racist. I don't think he has a racist bone in his body. I don't think he gives a damn about your race, frankly. He's a New York businessman who wanted to make money. Black dollars are as great as Hispanic dollars and white dollars. Anyway, and he did more good for blacks, which is all that matters. If there were a president who didn't like Jews but did more for Jews and Jewish welfare than any other president, I would say I don't care if he likes Jews. By the way, in general, this whole thing is an amazing thing, the preoccupation with racism as one's beliefs. The whole left, because it's an anti-wisdom movement, is the opposite. It assesses people in the opposite way I do, because I learned wisdom from something called the Bible. You judge people by their behavior, not by their thoughts. One of the most powerful stories I ever told was it was a guy who called my show in my first decade on radio, said to me, Dennis, you got to help me out, I'm a really bad son. I said, how's that? He said, well, I've been for the last 10 years, I've been 5 years, I don't remember, a long time, I've been taking care of my very ill mother. I've been her sole financial and emotional support, and I got to tell you, there are times that I wish the disease would take her. I said, so you think you're a bad son? I said, well, isn't it obvious? Look at what I just told you. And I said, sir, I want you to know that I believe you're one of the most wonderful sons that I've ever had the honor of meeting. That you'd so take care of your mother despite what you're thinking? Isn't all that matters what you do? He had never heard that in his life. He was assessing himself by his thoughts, not just others. This is what the left does, because there's no wisdom on the left. None. You cannot be a leftist and wise. You can be a liberal, you can be a conservative, you can't be a leftist. We assess people by their behavior. Maybe God assesses us by our thoughts, although I'm not sure about that. But I am sure that we assess behavior. Donald Trump did more for blacks than any president I am aware of.

You got the city line and the beach and the ocean, but in my binoculars, I saw all of this going on. And then in the center was the American flag waving.

I had studied Marxist history beginning with Marx and Engels' Communist Manifesto from 1848. And when I first studied that and saw in Section 1 of the Manifesto what you can recognize as what's called the oppressor versus oppressed narrative of human history, a whole bunch of stuff that was taking place in in our country began to become exceptionally clear to me. And I began to piece together a lot of the, what I'll call militant impulse that was manifesting in society as time went on. And there's a victimhood ideology. There's constantly an effort by some individuals who have an agenda to pit groups of people against one another as victims or oppressed groups and oppressor groups. And we've seen very clearly over the past calendar year who the oppressor group is labeled to be and who the oppressed groups are labeled to be. And right now, under the auspices of diversity and inclusion training, as well as critical race theory and other narratives of American history that have been parading about throughout the country and showing up in our education system, all of those narratives seek to divide the American people by pitting people against one another into racial groups. Yeah, it is the white versus the black. It's the—

Hi everybody, male-female hour on the Dennis Prager Show every Wednesday, the second hour. Broadcasting the show since 1926, the year before Babe Ruth hit 60 home runs. In fact, I'll never forget that the Babe said, "I dedicate my 60th home run to the male-female hour." It was very moving, very moving. I'm Dennis Prager, and we have very honest talk about men and women. Article in the New York Post, I actually read excerpts last hour even though it wasn't the male-female hour. Why progressive women want to date men who act like conservatives. How do you react to that? You can call in now. You agree with that? I agree with it. 1-800-PRAGER-776-877-243-7776. The title of the piece is Why Progressive Women Want to Date Men Who Act Like Conservatives. That's a good question. Act like conservatives or are conservative? I think in the final analysis, a lot of the time are, because it's hard to act like a conservative if you're a progressive, because it violates everything you have been told about yourself as a male. You will be a doormat. And if you're not a doormat, then you are a chauvinist. That's it. That's the way men are taught. I started reading another related article about what college does to men, how it— written by a professor at a university, at Bucknell University— how it teaches men that if they act like men, think like men, they are awful human beings. So she writes— woman named Melanie Nutkin is the author of this— she's talking about a friend who's a quote-unquote a real catch. I told Mark that despite his best intentions, his egalitarian dating style could be the problem that's holding him back. While some women balk at any hint of traditional male gender behavior, more of them lament the loss of chivalry. I'm one of them, she writes. I find it attractive when a man plans our first few dates and knowingly walks curbside when we're together. It signals he wants to protect me from passing traffic or errant puddle splashes. When I was a kid, my mom told me to always walk curbside, but I assumed my generation of women would think it's too old-fashioned, Mark told me. Now I'm really confused. So let me tell you as a man why this is such a non-masculine statement. Masculinity doesn't care what, quote, women tell him. That's the whole point. Doesn't mean you disrespect women. There's nothing masculine about disrespecting a woman, but there's nothing masculine about listening to what they say and altering your behavior as a result of what the New York Times writers who are female are telling you to do, or your teachers at college. I've had this since I began broadcasting. I'll never forget the guy who called my show. I mean, I was in my 30s, he was in his 30s, and the guy said to me, I don't know why, you know, I don't know what to do. Should I, should I hold the door open for a woman or not on a date? And I said, the very fact that you're asking is a bad sign. Of course you hold it open. If she doesn't like it, then you know this is not the woman for me. She saved you money. You should thank her. You're a feminist. I have no interest in dating you. Have a great day. That's it. And call a cab. In those days, there was no Uber. A woman offended if you hold the door is an idiot. Why would you want to date an idiot? He's really confused, this guy. What a riot. The New York dating scene— she's in New York, this is in the New York Post— is swimming with progressive women, and many of them want men who will pick up the check. The female desire to feel protected and looked after is built into our DNA, says evolutionist evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller, a professor at the University of New Mexico. It's a mismatch between the progressive women— between what progressive women say they want and what they actually respond to. Women's instinctive mate preferences have evolved for hundreds of thousands of years for guys who are competent, strong, good providers, good protectors, and happy with the sexual division of labor. Women want decisive men who are also compassionate and thoughtful. That's a catch. That's exactly right. By the way, just for the record, I don't care if you use evolution to explain it. I happen to think God made men and women the way they are, and that when done right, they're a perfect fit. But it's very hard to do do right. That's why we have a male-female hour. If all men and women did it right, there would be no reason to have the hour, would there? 2018 study from Iowa State University backs this up, reporting that progressive women prefer men who demonstrate more traditional dating behaviors. The women found these men to be, quote, more attractive, unquote, because they signal a willingness, quote, to invest by being protective, committed and by providing resources. Then she goes on to write about Gwen Stefani and whom she chose for her husband. When asked what she loves about her betrothed, Stefani gushed, he's full of love and generosity, so you feel safe, you can lean on him and trust him. By the way, that's what children want from parents. More than love, they want security. And, and for 2 or 3 generations, parents have not given their kids security. When you're your child's equal, your child is insecure. Their friends are their equals, their parents are not. Carrie Kari45 is a fundraising executive who dated a man in 2018 with left-leaning values and beliefs, but before long, his egalitarian dating attitude and lack of initiative to plan dates led to a breakup. Quote, at work, I'm the boss. I have to run the show, be the cheerleader, have tough conversations, she told me. I make decisions all day long. At the end of the day, I want my guy to say, babe, I got this. First of all, the fact that she wants him to say babe— whoa— isn't that an infantilization of a progressive woman? Babe? I appreciate a man who opens the door for me and picks up the check. This makes me feel safe, like I can count on him for other things, Carrie said, adding, I'm grateful when a man steps up and acts like a man. It makes me feel more feminine. Oh, but the whole purpose of feminism was to have you not feel feminine. That was its great goal. Men should not feel masculine, and women shouldn't— see, women should not feel feminine. Masculinity is toxic masculinity, and femininity is weakness. That's what they've been told. That's what your kids are told when you send them foolishly to college. Get it? Femininity is weakness and masculinity is toxic. Other than that, feminism had a great message. While Carrie and her boyfriend broke up, she remains a feminist who will only date conservative men. That's funny. Well, at least she has the wisdom to know that. Although she draws the line at, quote, far-right conspiracy theorists. Who's a far-right conspiracy theorist? These people. It's like saying, except a white supremacist. Who are these people? 1-800-PRAGER-776. You agree with the thesis? You have a daughter? Does it apply to you? 1-800-PRAGER-776.

One-third of California small businesses will never reopen. One-third. Many of the things that get All right, y'all, Dennis Prager here.
Powerful piece in the New York Post by a woman says that even a lot of progressive women prefer conservative men, or at least those who act conservative. But since a progressive man doesn't know how to act conservative and he would consider it to be anti-feminist. I don't know how you would get a progressive man to, uh, resume masculine behavior. Leftist men, by definition, have been emasculated since they think that masculinity is toxic and they think that femininity is weakness. That's what we have produced And that's what we are producing. Carrie's— she's speaking about her friend— Carrie's preference for conservative men comes as no surprise to Professor Miller. This is a time-tested set of behavior strategies and cultural norms that have lasted for centuries because they help find and keep good mates. And everybody knows this. Women in their hearts know this, and men don't take them at their word. Yes, now my friend Mark is planning to stop making the same mistakes. This is the end of her column. He told me he's going to start dating like a conservative and hopefully find his ideal progressive wife soon. See how long you could keep that act up. Up. Interesting question. So I go to your calls, my friends. And interesting here, Marian in Los Angeles, California. Hello. Hello, Marian.
Hi, can you hear me?
Yes. I trust, by the way, I trust since you're in Los Angeles County that you are now wearing a mask.
No, I'm not. Oh, I'm only in my dining room. Yeah, but there's nobody here.
No, please, somebody will be there and you've been exhaling.
Well, they're going to have to give the password, and I mean, if I don't understand them, they're wearing a mask. What can I say? They don't get in. No, I— listen, we'll move off masks. Don't— I don't want to—
I'm with you. Go ahead.
Okay. You know, I have to tell you, I've taught a film class, uh, and, uh, of movies of the '30s and '40s, among other things. But there's usually a semester where it's the '30s and '40s, which is basically classic Hollywood. And we talk about all kinds of things. We talk about human nature and everything. All I can tell you is that the 20-somethings who take that class and the early 30-somethings who take that class, they love these movies. And one of the things that they love is the way the characters, men and women, behave toward each other. And the first thing that I kick off with is It Happened One Night, where there's a lot of food for thought in terms of the behavior. You know, the one with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert? Colbert, she's a runaway bride. They just— the girls say, you know, it's kind of nice the way they behave toward the women. And the men say— the women— the fellas say, you know, it's really nice to see how the women behave toward the men. And it's not always, you know, they both have— they come to a— one of them said They come to appreciate each other, and they're different.
You know, this is like the first optimistic call I've gotten in, in about half a year.
Well, all I can tell you is that part of it is, part of it is also, and I, and I don't proselytize or anything, but I just, I just tell them that, uh, you have to, you have to get to know people. Don't go in with assumptions. And we talk about these movies and we question each other. And I say, you can— anybody disagree with that? It's okay in this class to disagree, but you've got to say why. You know, you're entitled to— your opinion goes just so far. You've got to back up your opinions with facts. So it's just— I think that is so interesting.
I think that's a great idea. Great vehicle to open people up. How do you react to the men and women in this movie? So I'll tell you all a story. I know I told it, but it's been a while. A friend of mine who is a lifelong liberal, and I can't say he's a leftist, he's a liberal, but very committed such. And, you know, votes Democrat. So he told me— I'm in touch with him rarely now, just worked out that way. We don't live in the same countries. And, uh, in any event, he told me about, I guess, 5 years ago, that he and his wife, who were big movie buffs, decided to watch movies from the 1950s. Just— they wanted to see, you know, what, what was America like then, at least through film. And he said, after about the 100th film, my wife and I started to appreciate conservatism. It started to make sense what it is that that people liked about pre-'60s values. And of course, nobody's talking about Jim Crow, talking about social values applicable to every race. It might be a vehicle, for all I know, film, to open up, uh, young people to an alternate universe But I, you know, I'm sure also, you know, seeing the women, you know, dressed up to kill, as it were, and men being assertive, I could, I could see a fair number of them having already been brainwashed into thinking how terrible that is. Yeah, that's an interesting one. All right, let's see here. Gina in Westmont, Illinois. Hello.
So listening to you, and I kind of think— I have two daughters and one is married and she's a child therapist. And I'm— so I was divorced, so I raised them by myself. So I always thought I was doing them good by saying, you need to be a strong, independent woman. And I think my daughter is middle-of-the-road liberal, but she definitely married a conservative because she definitely is emotional, wants to be respected and her door opened and know that she could depend on her husband. So I'm trying to retrain her to be more conservative, I guess, in views. The other—
you're talking about the married one? Yes. And what's the story with the other one?
Uh, she— well, I, I worry about her. She just, um, she's never dated, insecure, and she just is going to be a teacher in Illinois. I, I pray that she doesn't get bombarded with this nonsense with the school.
It needs prayer. Thank you for calling. God, the damage that has been been done to both sexes. 1-800-PRAGER-776, the male-female hour.

Anyway, you were talking about Bill Cosby, and I kind of disagreed with you about— you were saying, um, about all the women. I might say maybe, what is it, 18 women?
Oh no, there's close— it's close to 50 women that have made allegations. 50. 50. 5-0.
Oh, okay. So you believe in—
you believe all of them? Well, you think—
you think all 50 are lying, including Beverly Johnson, one of the first, uh, Black, uh, major models in America? She said he also gave her drugs and tried to— and tried to rape her.
I'm a woman, and what I'm saying is, in there in Hollywood, he, he has— he's a high-profile man, and they wanted to be alone with him. They might not have wanted his advances but it's, it's kind of—
Lynn, Lynn, please. There's no doubt that because he was famous and rich, uh, he attracted women. The question is, did he drug them and have sex with them? Uh, and that's known as rape.
Let me answer that. That's what I'm saying. If they drank anything that he had, they willingly drank.
Okay, okay. Now, Lynn, Lynn, hold on a second. The reason Bill Cosby got released is because the prior prosecutor apparently entered into some sort of deal with him and said, you're not going to be criminally prosecuted if you testify honestly in the civil trial. And in the civil trial years ago, he testified and admitted that he gave that particular woman a drug in order to have sex with her.
He admitted it under oath. Okay, one woman.
Yeah, but not— how many, how many does it take?
Well, I just saying, I know I'm a woman, I know women. I'm not saying some of it didn't happen. But some of them are scorned because they thought they was going to get something out of it.

August in Detroit, hello.
Hey Dennis, great show as always. Thank you so much. Thank you, sir. I always learn and educate myself, so it's fabulous. Five stars. Thank you again. My thinking is, and I, I am a father to now 3 adult women. Now my role is, yes, of course, be a father, be a friend, whatever, but I'm also going to emphasize I am a father. I'm not going to kowtow. I'm not going to go with this different thinking. I am a father first. That's not a bad thing. It's actually a very good thing. And I was blessed to have that role to a certain extent, and I can be very open-minded about certain subjects. But God got it. I am a man.
Well, I have that you told the screener progressive men are wimpy.
They are, because they've been— I hate to say this, but they've been dumbed down. They've been through media, through movies. I tell you what, media, television, movies, internet, it's very, very powerful. And I'm not sure people understand how powerful. Oh, believe me, they do.
They do. What they don't understand is the bad messages that have been conveyed. So it is an interesting question. Progressive men wimpy. I believe that, generally speaking, yes. That's, that's— but look, again, how could they not be? They associate masculinity with toxicity, right? Was that going to make a strong man? Let alone if the country were endangered, is that— who, who would you call on? Who would you prefer to defend the country against attack? Men who thought masculinity is toxic, or men who reveled in masculinity? The question is, as they say, rhetorical, because the answer is known. All right, let's go to Tsipora in Los Angeles. Hello.
Hi, how are you, Dennis? I'm well, thank you. Thank you so much for bringing up the subject. My, uh, take on why, uh, progressive women want to date conservative men is because they, they outside in the home, they want exactly conservative men that will take care of them, make them raise, uh, look after them, look after their children, and have security. But outside, they have to play the, the, you know, as if they are not interested in that, and they are feminists and conservative. And I mean feminists because that is their culture that they live in, and they don't want to oppose it because they lose their friends if they were honest of who they really want. Yes.
Well, all I can say is I agree with every word you said. And it's not the first time you've called. I always enjoy you. Everything is backwards. The interesting question that I, I have wrestled with all of my life is why would people want to reject healthy norms? It is a healthy norm that men revel in masculinity. It is a healthy norm that women revel in femininity. So, so why, why the massive rejection? And it's actually painful to me to admit to you that I don't have an answer. They're the only thing I've come up with, and I, I've tried to answer a lot of questions, and I have, I think, is there is in the human species some desire for chaos.

What is your message to those who, um, think this isn't a big deal or who feel cowed and intimidated. What do you say to them?
Any time you say something like what I'm about to say, I'm sure it can be abused and misused. So I'll be very careful in how I say it. I've never read Hitler's Mein Kampf, but I've picked it up recently in the past week because I'm interested in learning everything I can about history. After spending just a day with his Mein Kampf. The spirit and essence of his race hatred that shows up in that book, a set of two books, is very similar to what I'm seeing show up in How to Be an Antiracist.

I want to talk about what's happening in New York with Letitia James and what I consider to be a political persecution unlike anything I think in American political history. How are you guys dealing with this? And do you guys see this as— you obviously said this last night, but as a continuation of almost this 5-year political witch hunt?
100%. I mean, it's pretty clear when the, you know, the attorney general of a state without any information literally campaigns on saying, hey, we're going to investigate, we're going to lock them up, we're going to do this, that and the other. You know, it's, it's pretty amazing that they can get away with it and then they do it and then they do it for 5 years. And the reality is this: there's no recourse. There's no one keeping them in check, Charlie. They can just do this. You have nowhere to appeal it. So you're going to appeal it to a leftist judge in New York who feels the same way? They're utilizing their taxpayer-funded offices in a political vendetta to try to damage my father. And the reality is this: even after 5 years, you know, in search, in search of a crime, right? They've been looking for 5 years. They're, they're getting closer, Charlie. We've been hearing this now literally for half a decade, uh, and yet there's still nothing there, and yet no one's stopping them.
So as crime rates go through the roof in New York, as murder rates go through the roof Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager discussing this column in the New York Post by a woman who writes that even many progressive women, quote unquote progressive, want men who at least act conservative. Because then they, uh, that's what women basically do want in their nature, though they've been— it's been drummed out of them for 3 generations now. Women want a masculine man, and you can't admit it today because you would be laughed at, you would be mocked. A woman got up at a managing women's studies or gender studies or any class that discussed the issue and would say, yeah, well, you know, I really would like a man who's masculine. She, they, she would be regarded as a weirdo, as a throwback to 50, 70, 100 years ago. You want a masculine man? What, are you nuts? You know how toxic masculinity is? For the left, toxic masculinity is redundant. Masculinity is toxic. Femininity is weakness. What a combination. Yet women want— most women want a man that they adore, they respect. Women want to adore the man they love, and men want to be adored by the women they— or the woman they love. That's the way it works. Nobody says this at college. Indeed. Let's go to Jill in Sarasota, Florida.
Hello, Jill. Hi, Dennis. I I'm a second-time caller. I'm, I'm parsimonious. I don't know if you remember me about that. However, I do, um, I was a tomboy growing up in Florida, and I was hanging out with my brothers, you know, having wars in the forest near my home, and, you know, just being a complete guy. But as I got older, I sought out and for the most part, Jewish men, because they take care of their women. I hate— I hope I don't say anything wrong by saying this, but I liked being taken care of and feeling protected. And in spite of the fact that I'm a very strong person and I'm, you know, I'm not a girl's girl, but I'm not a boy's boy either, but I'm kind of in between. I'm completely heterosexual, but I like the fact that— I love the fact that my husband always calls to make sure I'm okay. It is the most wonderful feeling in the world, and it makes me want to do wonderful things for him that he appreciates, you know, getting him coffee in the morning and cooking a good meal. But I don't think it detracts from my, you know, my strength.
And, um, on the contrary, I actually think it argues for your strength because you are going against the societal norm. Taking care of your husband that way is not going to win you kudos at, uh, at the University of Florida. Just picking a university you might be near.
Well, any, any university these days, Dennis. But I think, you know, I think that— I think our value system has been so tarnished. And I agree with the woman that was talking about the movies um, in the '50s. And I think, you know, look how happy everybody was.
Well, you know, look, they had the same problems that the human race always has, but people were happier. I do believe that because I, I, you know, it's— you remind me because it was my father's birthday this week and I always play— Sean, we got to play an hour of my dad, maybe tomorrow. I love listening to you. Yes. And he, he He represented, I think, a happier generation with all the difficulties that the greatest generation, right? Yeah, well, they screwed up in the way they raised kids, but they, they didn't transfer love of America and liberty to their children. By the way, did you say Jewish men?
Yes, I am. I was born and raised in an Episcopal church.
Yes.
Do you know you are There are not, this is a very interesting question. I wonder if I should do a male-female hour on it. The number of non-Jewish women who have said that to me is remarkably high, that they would like to marry a Jewish man. And which is interesting given how quote unquote progressive Jews are. Yet Jews are the perfect example of living conservatism. Conservative lives and preaching leftism. As I always say to my Jewish— forgive me, I just want to tell you, I say to my Jewish relatives all the time, why don't you preach what you practice?
Well, you know, we have in Florida, it's a little bit different than it is in New York and other progressive states where, you know, we have many Jewish friends that can't talk to us about certain subjects because it's, you know, but I, but I love them. And, you know, and I have always, um, loved my Jewish boyfriends growing up here in Florida. And I just thought, you know, look, there's discipline in Judaism, and that, you know, is what I respect. And, and the discipline of having and being faithful and having a good partner Um, sorry, I know I'm derailing from your topic, but I just—
no, no, I asked you about it. It's a very intelligent call. I thank you. Second call, interesting. I, I may— I, I have to do one. It'd be— it would just be one that is an hour that I would find fascinating, as I do often, is just to ask you a question. Is there a group religious, ethnic, racial, that you think produce better husbands? And by the way, conversely, do you think there's a group that produces better wives? I would love— I'm definitely going to do that and just hear what you have to say. But this really triggered something that I, I hear, I've heard a lot. Jewish men make good husbands. I can only tell you this as a Jewish man and a wonderful husband, that traditionally Jewish men were raised marry and take care of a woman.

Joe Biden was sold as a moderate. People that had worked with Joe Biden back in the day said, oh, I've known Joe for years. He's okay. He's fine.
Listen, when he got hair plugs, he flipped a long time ago. He was, he was, he was bald as an egg and he got hair plugs. And I believe those hair plugs were from a Chinese lab in the Wuhan province. And things started to go screwy and he flipped.
That's so he said. I don't know that that's true. I think he hid maybe who he was for a long time. A lot of liberals did in the '70s.
First of all, he's nobody. He has no values. Let's not kid ourselves. He's not a Marxist. He is a husk of a person. And he will just do— that's the whole point of your article at townhall.com. People are running him and steering him. And he doesn't have the whisper of what we would call courage or conviction.
Right. Well, and because he can't get the stuff kicked out fast enough. I mean, they've attacked so many different areas of culture and life all at once. And I think this is part of the blowback that is causing parental communities to rise up. You know, one of the things I'm most excited about, to be candid, out of all this is to see the growth of middle-class Black parents debating CRT to their own school boards. There's something very powerful about a father and a mother, married Black couple living in a suburb and being part of a community and saying to a school board what you're in essence trying to do What year is this?
Really? 2005? I'm Dennis Prager. This is the Male-Female Hour. Do most women want a conservative man, or at least a man who acts conservative? Conservative. That's the thesis of this piece in the New York Post by a woman, and I believe it's true. And the whole issue of masculinity and femininity arises from this subject. It, it really coincides with something that I will be reading to you next hour, among other things. And it is about what our colleges have done to men. It was written by a professor himself, a professor at Bucknell University. Young men are compelled to unquestionably acquiesce to fundamentally anti-male social justice doctrines that are in the process of becoming the raison d'être of such institutions. They are told throughout their 4 years at college that a male who unapologetically embraces his nature commits an eternal offense unless he agrees to fundamentally change himself to suit the desires of his moral betters. He is to be despised by the righteous and become a legitimate target for repression. Well, that's, uh, in other words, it is the desire to produce men who renounce their masculinity. But that's not what women want, and I, I am convinced it is part of the reason for so many depressed young women. When men cease to be men, there's a— there's chaos that enters women's lives. Women traditionally civilized men, and men calmed women. Our natures need the other. I do believe that is the way the way we are built. Pamela and Mike, Steve, Kevin, Mike— two Mikes, one in Orlando and one in LA— and Glenn, New York. I wish I could take your calls. Most of them are affirming the thesis of the hour. There's something beautiful in femininity and something beautiful in masculinity. Why there is an urge to destroy that is a very interesting question, an unbelievably important one.

Donald Rumsfeld is famous for many things. Before Donald Trump, there was Newt Gingrich in the 2012 campaign demonstrating hostility to the media and confrontation with the media. But before there was Newt Gingrich, there was Donald Rumsfeld demonstrating command of the media. Most famous for his combination of command and concise knowledge is this cut, which is his most famous response to a question.
There are reports that there is no evidence of a direct link between Baghdad and some of these terrorist organizations.
There are known knowns.
There are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns. That is to say, we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns, the ones we don't know we don't know. Excuse me, but is this an unknown unknown? Uh, I'm not— several unknowns, and I'm just wondering.
I'm not going to say which it is. Rumsfeld knew exactly what he was doing. It makes perfect sense, and that's why his memoir is known as Known Unknowns. But for the full tutorial on how to deal with the media, here is a press situation with Donald Rumsfeld on April 11th, 2003. Listen to how he deals with a hostile press.

When, when did you wake up and say, hang on, this is not good?
Well, like I said earlier, I've been in for over 15 years. The first 14 years of my career I was in the Air Force, uh, was in the flying community, and then came into the Space Force. Every unit that I've ever been in, all of my professional interactions with people during the preponderance of my career have been highly professional, not politicized. We focus on a mission that unifies us. We wear the same uniform and we go out and do our job every day. And when I noticed personally these things really rapidly beginning to change was in the past calendar year, but specifically in the aftermath of George Floyd's death. What you saw in broader society in the form of social justice activism pouring into the streets, the disruption of civil liberties, for example, and the dialogue, if you want to call it that, that ensued in the aftermath is the very thing that I saw just spill over into active duty military units. Now, I'll be clear that every unit is different, every leader is different, Every base is different. But that's when I was really keen on seeing this happen. Now I've been in academia for the past 2 years. And so what I'm able to share is simply one man's perception of when this is— I left academia in June of last year and came out to my current base and have had these experiences. But it's my sense that the seeds are planted long ago. They take— this is a subversive agenda.

and you're Give you an idea of behind the scenes at the Dennis Prager Show. And the signals became more and more frantic as the music proceeded, and there was silence at this end of the microphone. Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. Back from Texas and Nebraska, two free states, uh, now in Los Angeles County. So what do I do? I, I've returned to my gym and for my 3 times a week workouts, and I have to wear a mask, the mirror, a mask while working out. God knows how many people I would kill. You know, I would be willing to be tested every single time I entered the gym rather than wear a mask. So we'll see what happens when I keep it under my nose. If, if I'm stopped, I will take a leave of absence from the gym. The idea of working out with your nose and mouth covered is absurd. To say that we live in the age of absurdity is to understate the case. I was sent a clip of Chuck Schumer speaking. Where was the university, right? What was the— what's the background? Georgetown Law School. Okay. This is from 2009, and that is an amazing— excuse me, I'm I'm sorry about this. I'm getting— and there's nothing I can do. It's an alert that some kid was kidnapped. So you'll have to excuse me now. I'm going to go and look for that car. I'll just let Sean handle the rest of the show. Some highlights. I'm not making fun of the idea that a kid is kidnapped. By the way, 99% of the time it's a relative who has taken the kid, which does not, not in any way minimize the evil of it. But people should not think their kids are in danger of being kidnapped. There's no epidemic of such. Georgetown Law School, Chuck Schumer, 12 years ago. To give you an idea of the rapidity of the left-wing takeover of the liberal, Chuck Schumer stands for nothing. He's not a leftist, he's not a liberal, he's a nothing. He loves being elected. That's all it is. By the way, there are Republicans who love being elected. But in his case, that's it. There's no way to know what the man truly believes because he doesn't truly believe anything. So here's a perfect example. Listen to Chuck Schumer. It's 2 minutes from 12 years ago.
We must create a system that converts the current flow of primarily low-skilled illegal immigrants into the United States into a more manageable and controlled flow of legal immigrants who can be absorbed by our economy. Let me elaborate. The first of these 7 principles is that illegal immigration is wrong, plain and simple. Until the American people are convinced that we will stop future flows of illegal immigration, we will make no progress on dealing with the millions of illegal immigrants who are and on rationalizing our system of legal immigration. It's plain and simple and unavoidable. When we use phrases like undocumented workers, we convey a message to the American people that their government is not serious about combating illegal immigration, which the American people overwhelmingly oppose. If you don't think it's illegal, you're not going to say it. I think it is illegal and wrong, and we have to change it. Above all else, the American people want their government to be serious about protecting the public, enforcing the rule of law, and creating a rational system of legal immigration that will proactively fit our needs rather than reactively responding to future waves of illegal immigration. People who enter enter the United States without our permission are illegal aliens, and illegal aliens should not be treated the same as people who entered the U.S. legally. To the advocates for strong, fair, effective, comprehensive immigration reform—and I'm certainly one—I say to you that the American people will never accept immigration reform unless they truly believe that their government is committed to ending future illegal immigration, and any successful comprehensive immigration reform bill must recognize this fact.
Oh, that's right, that was a perfect sound effect. Sean, if there were the opposite of a punishment room— a— I won't say the word— O-room— we would we would send you there. Okay, he's keeping a tally. Good. What do you think, folks? It's not that the man changed his mind. It's that he didn't— he doesn't believe in anything to begin with. He believes only in what furthers his political career. The Democrats consist of true believer leftists like AOC and the wimp liberal like Chuck Schumer. Wimp liberal is almost redundant, not entirely. Oh, my party now believes that illegal alien is bad language. I won't never use it. My party is now essentially for open borders. Oh, so am I. Whatever keeps me as reelected from New York State, basically New York City, and whatever keeps me Senate Majority Leader, that's the position I take. Yeah, what would he say to that speech? And the answer, of course, is he would never have to say anything about the speech because nobody would confront him. Is NPR going to confront him? Of course not. And that's it. He could have said the Earth was flat. He could have said the Earth was round and now it's flat. Doesn't matter. He does the will of the left, as most liberals do. Yep, hard to believe, isn't it, what, what you've just heard? I began reading to you in the first hour a very powerful piece, What's in Store for Your Sons. By the Anyway, up there with my favorite journals is First Things. I wrote for First Things when it first began under the great Father Newhouse. And I have a paid subscription to both its paper copy and its electronic copy. R.R. Reno edits it, very, very thoughtful Catholic whom I've had on the show a number of times. This is a professor at Bucknell. This is a strong man to be a professor and to write this. You better think twice before you send your son to a university. That's correct. I've heard people in important positions in my university talk unguardedly because they believe that everyone shares their perspective. God is Is that true? With disdain for white male students who are universally assumed to benefit from privilege and harbor racist sentiments. The increasingly dominant view at woke liberal art schools is that all white heterosexual males are the same. They are faceless representatives of the supposed top spot in a hierarchical structure that illegitimately dominates others. They are regarded as potential rapists. A group of Bucknell faculty and administrators have for years perpetuated a disputed narrative that women on campus labor under a regime of constant male sexual violence and terror, right? White heterosexual males are racist simply by virtue of their whiteness. They are homophobes if they do not instantly and effusively agree with every radical claim about sexuality and gender identity made by advocates masquerading as scholars. I like this guy. They invoke the patriarchy to buttress their belief that women are an oppressed class at Bucknell and that men are their oppressors. One of them argues that men dominate— listen to this, this is great— One of them then argues that men dominate public spaces, including the correct classroom, talking aggressively and crowding out female voices. Let me tell you his response to that and the response he gets. I can't believe a professor is actually writing this. Gotta have him on just to ask him how other professors have reacted. Beware if you send your son, frankly, or daughter to college.

This, uh, this article by a professor at Bucknell University about what it's like to be a male on a campus today. Sick. It's all sick. They invoke the patriarchy to buttress their belief that women are an oppressed class at Bucknell male, and men are their oppressors. One of them then argues that men dominate public spaces including the classroom, talking aggressively and crowding out female voices. I indicate to the speaker that in the entirety of our discussion of this and nearly every other topic in the course, men have been largely silent in class, and that it is in fact women, and almost exclusively feminist women, women, such as the speaker, who talk constantly. This observation is never substantively challenged because everyone in the class knows it to be true, but it's always received with frustration by students who have invoked the patriarchy. Sometimes they lodge reports with my department chair or dean regarding how insensitive and probably misogynist I am, to point out such inconvenient facts. He ends the piece, I wonder as I talk with these young men how any loving parent can imagine that this kind of environment is best for their sons. Last hour I talked about the knocking out of masculinity in progressive men by a woman writing an article about how even progressive women are more drawn to men who at least act conservative. We're living in the realm of chaos. I said something last hour I had never said before, and I'm going to repeat it until I think it's wrong, which may be never. The general view was men need women and women need men, and the general view was men need women to be civilized. Men, men are wild. So what is it that men do for women is more complex, but it's just as deep. And what I think it is, is that they calm the inner chaos that most women experience. And in the best situations, a woman civilizes her, her man, and a man calms the chaos in the woman. But that chaos is not calmed society suffers, just as when men's wildness is not civilized, there is chaos in society. In other words, each sex by its nature is chaotic and needs the other to, to control, help them control their chaos. That's why women are disproportionately involved in the, in the, in the demonstrations, in the anger, in the tearing down of the, the norms of society. I mean, here's a piece that I just came across, and let me find it for— it's from Politico, of all places. And I have to find it. Give me one moment, everybody, because— yeah, here it is. It's in Politico. Politico is liberal, and the article is from this week. Four wealthy donors fuel overhaul of California California's criminal justice system. Four wealthy activists intent on reshaping California's criminal justice system are gearing up for their biggest test yet against police and prosecutor groups. So who are the four? The four donors: Patty Quillen, Quinn Delaney, Elizabeth Simons and Caitlin Krieger. Hmm, 4 women. 4 women are disproportionately involved in getting district attorneys, prosecutors in, who will let criminals out of prison, as they are doing One of the reasons for the rise in violent crime in places like California cities. Yes, that's what they're doing. At the very least, please never say the idiocy that a world run by women would be better. You have zero, zero evidence for that. Chaotic natures inherent to men and women. Men's sexual and violent natures— there, that leads to chaos if not civilized. And women's chaotic nature without the calm of a man can lead to chaos. That's, that's what it's That's what is happening. When people speak of the feminization of society, do you realize a synonym for the term feminization of society is society's embrace of chaos? The idea that men give birth is chaos. That's just chaos. My column this week, which came out yesterday, You can see it at my website or many others on the internet, is you have a right to be transgender but not to show your private parts to women and girls.

I had studied Marx Marxist history, beginning with Marx and Engels' Communist Manifesto from 1848. And when I first studied that and saw in Section 1 of the Manifesto what you can recognize as what's called the oppressor versus oppressed narrative of human history, a whole bunch of stuff that was taking place in our country began to become exceptionally clear to me, and I began to piece piece together a lot of the, uh, what I'll call militant impulse that was manifesting in society as time went on. And there's a victimhood ideology. There's constantly an effort by some individuals who have an agenda to pit groups of people against one another as victims or oppressed groups and oppressor groups. And we've seen very clearly over the past calendar year who the oppressor group is labeled to be and who the oppressed groups are labeled to be. And right now, under the auspices of diversity and inclusion training, as well as critical race theory and other narratives of American history that have been parading about throughout the country and showing up in our education system, all of those narratives seek to divide the American people by pitting people against one another into racial groups. Yeah, it is the white versus the black. It used to be class division by class.
Now it's division by race, by skin color. We've only begun to scratch the surface. We're going to go deep dive on what's happening inside the US military and why this man took the courageous step of writing the book Irresistible Revolution. Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Lohmeier.

Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here. It was actual simple fortuitous coincidence that I mentioned those 4 wealthy women donors leading the movement to get prosecutors who don't prosecute. Because right now I have as my guest Rafael Mangual. He is Deputy Director of Legal Policy at the great Manhattan Institute, and his is the latest video at PragerU. Fewer penalties, more crime. Rafael, welcome to the Dennis Prager Show.
Thanks so much for having me.
You have a wonderful video up there.
Thank you. You enjoy making it? I did, I did. It was a great process. This is actually my second PragerU video. The first one I did was on the debate about mass incarceration, so I thought this was a pretty good follow-up. Long since prosecutors have kind of been put front and center in the mission to decarcerate on a mass scale, which I think is something the country's smack dab in the middle of.
I always ask a question. It's just part of my nature. I— it's— it really is built into me. I asked the question, why? And that's a much tougher question than what. So I'm putting you on the spot, and you may not even have an answer, but if you have one, I'm very curious. Why would anyone think that a general release of criminals is good for society?
So I think there are a couple of answers to this question, and I'm going to have to channel my, you know, opponents in the policy sphere right now, but I think the argument arguments that they make most often in response to this question is one, that the criminal justice system has been a driver of social and racial inequities over the course of American history. And to their mind, the racial disparities in the criminal justice system, the growth of the incarcerated population, the growth of the percentage of the population that has been involved with the criminal justice system, that all of that reflects some kind of inherent injustice because the system itself was, was sort of developed and built and operated in order to oppress the less powerful and to protect the more powerful. The other more sophisticated argument that a lot of people make is that to their mind the criminal justice system the system has produced more harm than good. They argue, for example, that incarceration has a kind of criminogenic impact that makes people so much more likely to offend having been through the system that not putting them through the system at all actually reduces the overall harm that society is exposed to. I don't buy either of those arguments. I don't think the data support either of those arguments, but that is, I think, the sort of main motivations for the people pursuing this project.
I've always respected you, and you've actually increased my respect, and I wanted to explain to my listeners why. It is a good sign when a person who differs with arguments can actually well articulate the arguments with which they disagree. I would be very surprised if any leftist could articulate as well our arguments on any given subject. They create phony arguments, as I read to you in the first hour from Ibram X. Kendi. He makes up things that we say that we don't say, like blacks are inferior. I don't know I don't know anybody who ever said that. There are such people. I actually think leftists believe that because they don't make the same moral demands on blacks, but that's a separate question. In any event, you well articulated what they would say. Interestingly, what is missing from their entire argument is to me what is the most operative question. How many people imprisoned for violent crimes— we'll leave drugs aside for now— how many people imprisoned for violent crimes do not belong there? They don't address that, right?
They don't address that, and it's really a major flaw in, in the— this is one of the main premises of their arguments in favor of progressive prosecution. Right, the advent of progressive prosecution really has sort of two root causes. One is the belief that prosecutors were not doing enough to hold police officers accountable. We saw this when, you know, Robert McCullough declined to prosecute Darren Wilson after the shooting of Michael Brown. We saw this—
Well, they say we saw this. Actually, the fact is Michael Brown attacked the officer.
I'm not sure. Exactly. There was good reason for why that case was not prosecuted. I think the same can be said about the decision not to criminally prosecute Daniel Pantaleo in the death of Eric Garner in New York. But those two incidents really created a national movement to start targeting these offices as ways to really impose more scrutiny and, you know, the potential for more penalties on police departments. But the second prong of the progressive prosecutor movement is really this idea, and you can thank people like John Pfaff, a law professor at Fordham University, for really popularizing this claim, but the idea that prosecutors were really at the center of the mass incarceration problem, such that if you agreed with the premise that the United States over-incarcerates on some large scale, that it's really an operation of decisions prosecutors have been making over the last 20 to 30 years. And so in order to get at that problem and to decarcerate and get us back down to, you know, say incarceration levels on par with other Western European democracies, which I think would be a disaster to pursue.
All right, hold it there if you would. Don't forget that. Rafael Mongual, legal policy, Manhattan Institute.

So the fact that this has now happened, you know, part of me wants to say, haha, but it's just too sad to say, haha. This is something that I warned against and you warned against and others warned against because we knew that the consequences are devastating.

Yesterday, General Milley told a congressional hearing that there is no chance, not no chance, very unlikely and very little motivation for the People's Republic of China on this, the 100th anniversary history of the Chinese Communist Party to assault Taiwan in the near term. Quote, there's no reason to do it militarily, and they know that. So I think the probability is probably low in the immediate near-term future. Your reaction, Senator Cotton?
Well, I think that's right. Up through the end of the Beijing Olympics in February, you know, Russia didn't invade Crimea.

Hi everybody. Hi everybody. Hi everybody. I have, uh, Mangual, Mr. Mangual, on now. But, uh, I just got to remind you about Relief Factor. I've been telling you about this for quite a number of years. They're obviously immensely successful. You see their ads everywhere. You hear them everywhere.

So the Director of Legal Policy is a really brilliant guy named James Copeland. But I should tell you that as of today, I am no longer the Deputy Director of Legal Policy at the Manhattan Institute and am now Head of Research for our Policing and Public Safety Initiative. Well, congratulations.
Thank you, sir. So they, they got wind of your attempted coup against the director and they moved you over? I'm so glad you laughed. There are guests who don't find my humor all that enjoyable. It's a little dark. Anyway, congratulations, you've earned it. Whatever, whatever they have you at, at the Manhattan— by the way, do you live in Manhattan?
Uh, not anymore. I just moved out to Queens a couple years ago. My wife and I were in Manhattan for a few years before that, and, uh, I'm originally from Brooklyn, New York, so, you know, Life-long New Yorker.
Hey, you did exactly what I did a generation ago. I grew up in Brooklyn, went to Manhattan for graduate school, and then moved to Queens. Oh, there you go. I moved to Whitestone.
Oh nice, we are in Forest Hills.
Yeah, well known, well known. That's where the Mets are, right?
Not too far, yeah. They're in Flushing, which is right next door.
That's a beautiful name, Flushing. The thought that one could live in a place called Flushing is just— it's why the real estate prices are so high. I got a question on this whole issue that you're doing about prosecutors. Another thought question. At what rate of murder would these destructive fools who don't want criminals prosecuted as a general rule say they were wrong, or do you believe that if they could, it could never happen that they would say that?
Oh, I'm not sure. I'm not sure that they'll ever get there. I mean, you know, one of the things I don't think people quite fully appreciate is that we've been having this debate for as long as I've been alive. You know, if you go back, you know, to reading the work of, you know, James Q. Wilson in the '70s and '80s, he was responding to the very same arguments that I'm responding to today. These ideas that we have a mass incarceration problem, that, you know, prosecutors need to be reformed, that the institutions that make up our criminal justice system are corrupt. You know, the crime rise of the '80s and '90s didn't change their minds. And I think they've taken full advantage of the crime decline. Declines in the '90s and 2000s to continue making their case and asserting their newfound power. So, yeah, I don't think there really is a crime number that will convince them that they are wrong, which makes it all the more important, you know, for people who are skeptical of that, you know, to really do the research and come up with strong arguments as to why we should stop putting our weight as a policy behind this effort.
The reason that we have high incarceration, I am sorry to say, is that we have high crime. That's exactly right.
That's exactly right. I mean, you know, one of the things that people like to do with the United States is make these sort of unfavorable comparisons to Western European democracies, you know, places like the United Kingdom and Germany. But if you just look you look at a handful of neighborhoods in just a handful of cities, you can wind up with, you know, a situation in which you have, you know, 15% of the homicides in the whole of Germany with just 0.5% of Germany's population. The reality is, is that, you know, this very large country of ours has many, many pockets in which crime is a very serious problem. You know, the safe neighborhoods in the United States have been and continue to be as safe, if not safer, than the safe neighborhoods in any other country in the world.
Yeah, I always— I've always said, forgive me, I would always tell my listeners, don't compare America generically. How about compare South Dakota or North Dakota to Germany or Denmark? See what you come up with then in crime rates.
That's exactly right. New Hampshire, you know, Vermont. I mean, there are lots of really great examples. The problem is that in the United States, we have these areas of very concentrated, very high levels of crime. And, you know, in the U.S. in any given year, about half of all murders happen in just about 2% of all counties, and more than 60% of all counties see precisely zero murders in a given year in the U.S. Homicide, shootings, violent crime generally is a very very hyper-concentrated phenomena. We just happen to have, because of the size of our country and its population, many, many more pockets of concentrated crime, which when coupled with, you know, the majority of the country which has, you know, murder rates close to zero, really boosts that number up so that it looks a lot worse compared to, you know, other Western European democracies. But it is a really important important point. And even within cities, too. I mean, crime is still very, very concentrated. In New York, for example, about 5% of street segments, you know, will see close to 50% of all crime. And that's generally true in cities across the country. So it's really, really important to understand that the United States does not necessarily have a crime problem, but the United States does have neighborhoods with really, really bad crime problems.

Joe Biden was sold as a moderate. People that had worked with Joe Biden back in the day said, oh, I've known Joe for years. He's okay.
He's fine. Listen, when he got his hair plugs, He flipped a long time ago. He was, he was, he was bald as an egg and he got hair plugs. And I believe those hair plugs were from a Chinese lab in the Wuhan province. And things started to go screwy and he flipped. That's so he said.
I don't know that that's true. I think he hid maybe who he was for a long time. A lot of liberals did in the '70s.
First of all, he's nobody. He has no values. Let's not kid ourselves. He's not a Marxist. He is a husk of a person. And he will just do— that's the whole point of your article at townhall.com. People are running him and steering him, and he doesn't have the whisper of what we would call courage or conviction.
Right. Well, and because he can't get the stuff kicked out fast enough. I mean, they, they've attacked so many different areas of culture and life all at once. And I think this is part of the blowback that is causing parental communities to rise up. You know, one of the things I'm most excited about, to be candid, out of all this is to see the growth of middle-class Black parents debating CRT to their own school boards. There's something very powerful about a father a father and a mother, married black couple living in a suburb and being part of a community and saying to a school board, what you're in essence trying to do is teach my child to be a racist.
An amazing thing, is it not, that I, I just interviewed a man who made a video for PragerU and has written on the subject of Prosecutors who don't prosecute. The question that I've posed so often, does the left believe its lies, has really hounded me my whole life. Do they really believe that the incarceration rates for violent criminals are due to racism? Do they really believe believe that, and that therefore we should rarely prosecute violent criminals. And I, I will give you an example of why I believe they do believe this. I believe that if any one of these district attorneys that the left has put in, like in LA County, if a loved one of theirs a spouse, a child even, was murdered by someone their policies had released on no bail, let's say, or just released from prison, they would still believe in their policies. There was a woman in Germany— I reported this to you when it happened— a young woman in Germany was raped by some Muslim immigrants to Germany, and she told the police that it was German, white German men who had done it. And the reason that she lied about who raped her, gang raped her, was that she didn't want people to have negative views of the immigrants. These people are true believers. Now, when I played for you at the beginning of the show Chuck Schumer 12 years ago saying we have to call illegal immigrants illegal immigrants, we can't call them undocumented workers, and we have to stop this, and no society can exist if they allow massive illegal immigration, Now, he doesn't believe a thing he says, but leftists— he's not a leftist, he's an opportunist. Leftists, they believe that, and that's why they are what Eric Hoffer called true believers. And that's the scariest. The opportunists go wherever the wind blows. Their, their character is, is profoundly defective. But the true believer is a true believer. This is, this is a conflict of belief systems. The American Trinity of E Pluribus Unum, In God We Trust, and Liberty—Judeo-Christian values. Versus an equally fervent religious system called progressivism. Thanks for listening, everybody.
