The Dennis Prager Show LIVE

Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here, and another Monday, another week gone, another month gone. Even I didn't believe that we would have a year of lockdown of the economies of the world. I called it the stupidest, the worst mistake. What did I call it? Stupidest? No, worst mistake. Biggest mistake. That's it. Biggest mistake in world history. Not the biggest evil. Made that clear. Biggest mistake. And of course you say, you can't even look at the numbers. I don't know. Well, I believe the numbers. That's not the issue. I, I just know that the numbers would be dramatically less if there weren't incompetence and corruption in the highest levels of medicine in this country and elsewhere because of the denial of the uses of ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, and zinc. It will come out that these— what is it, Faith, did you read that Facebook apologized for banning some notice? Somebody on Facebook speaking about hydroxychloroquine. It will gradually come out that many of your loved ones who died, died needlessly. And there will be, there'll be so little reportage of it that it will, it will be as if it didn't happen. There's an article having nothing to do with this, but I just want to tell you, I, I am not medically trained. I am not pharmacologically trained. But I am trained in a pursuit of truth and no agenda other than truth and helping people. I have very corny agendas. So that combination with common sense really leads you to pretty accurate responses to life. How many, how many years ago did I first tell you that carbs make people fat, not fat when the government was telling you fat made you fat. So they still sell nonfat stuff at the airports. And a new giant article in the Wall Street Journal about the health benefits of a protein and fat-based diet as opposed to carb. Massive article in the Wall Street Journal. Meanwhile, everybody was told how meat You know, you got to really cut out that meat. But they had an agenda. Agenda was global warming. Agenda was vegetarianism. Agenda was the moral agenda of the problem of killing animals the way we do, which is a moral problem, by the way. But you should say that. Don't say it's not healthy meat. Say we have a poor way of killing the animals that we eat. I would agree. There should be humane measures taken. Animals not in terror, and it's treated semi-decently while it is alive. I am a big, big fan of that. But don't lie to me that meat is bad for me. That— but it's okay to lie for your cause. This is what I have lived through my whole life. If you have a progressive cause, you are permitted to lie. That's it, because the cause is much greater than truth. Truth is not a left-wing value, as I say every day. Doesn't mean that everybody on the left lies. It means that truth is not a left-wing value. It's literally what I'm saying. It's a conservative value. It's a liberal value. It's not a left-wing value. Welcome to the show, everybody. I didn't begin with, I hope you had a nice weekend. I do hope you had a nice weekend, by the way. I really do. There's now outdoor dining. Now what changed? Was all of a sudden there was a medical call for opening up for outdoor dining in LA County where I live?

Hmm.

Or could it be that there's a massive recall campaign for this incompetent, life-destroying governor. Livelihood-destroying, to be really precise. That's what I meant by life-destroying. And there's not— there's not been enough of a pushback in this state or in this country. To read the New York Times is an experience in reading propaganda, hate-filled propaganda. That's all. That's really what the New York Times is filled with, hate-filled propaganda. The two— it was, it was always on the left, but it was never Pravda, where you just knew, you knew exactly what you would read. Just like with Pravda. You know, the amount of attention still paid to Donald Trump in the New York Times opinion pages. The day Barack Obama was no longer in office, I don't think there was, there was, I don't think 1% of the columns of the right were about Barack Obama. There's total obsession. Here it is, look at this. The— there, how many is— 1, 2, 3, how many columns? Yeah, 1, 2, 3, 4. So the New York Times is 6 columns wide. That's what a page in the New York Times. 5 columns, entire top half of the front page. 77 days, Trump's campaign to subvert the election. How a lie stoked the assault on the Capitol. That, by the way, I've said from the beginning, I'm agnostic, which is absolutely true. I don't know. I wrote an article last week where I offered just rational questions. That's all, just rational questions with regard to the election results. So how do they know it's a lie? How really, how does the New York Times know it's a lie? And writing a lie in the headline gives you an idea of why it's pravda, right? Not claim. You would think how a claim stoked the assault on the Capitol. No, how a lie stoked the— how do they know it's a lie? The New York Times knows that there were no— there was no cheating in this election? Was there? Was it ever aired? How do they know? I don't know that the cheating gave Joe Biden the election, and I don't know that cheating didn't give Joe Biden the election. Has anybody allowed anybody to present evidence? Are all the people who believe this out of their minds? Of course the left will say yes, but you're not out of your mind. The millions who say men give birth, that's completely rational. So when the left tells me to follow science or think rationally, I, given the bathing in the irrational that we have done for all of my life, look at that. The entire Front page: Trump's campaign to subvert the election. Wow. The article by Jim Rutenberg, Joe Becker, Eric Lipton, Maggie Haberman, Jonathan Martin, Matthew Rosenberg, Michael Schmidt. A lot of people contributed to this. Yep, yep, that's right. Okay, that's, uh, that's why we need alternate sources of truth. Of truth, not of opinion. We need that too, but of truth. But they close us down. The— it, it is one of the biggest scandals in American history that a parlor was shut down. You can't even have an alternate voice. We have to create an alternate system. I wish that Donald Trump would work on that, on a different internet than on a different party. My view is, and you can be as angry as you want at the Republican Party, I don't, by the way, believe that it has earned your wrath. They went along magnificently with the president for 4 years, with obvious exceptions like Mitt Romney, for which I assume LDS in Utah are repenting on a regular basis. My good friends in the Latter-day Saints Church, known as Mormons, were fooled by this man. Never vote for someone because of their religion, ethnicity, race, nationality, okay? Vote for them solely on the basis of their values. 1-800-PRAGER-776.

Tackling the climate crisis at home and abroad. Yes, the country with the largest military capabilities with nuclear weapons is now back to fighting the climate. Just as I explained to you on a prior program when I was asked to run an exercise with colonels and half-bird colonels From the Obama administration, they too, half of the cohorts in that exercise, said that the climate was our biggest enemy. Well, here's the new Secretary of Defense. The department will immediately take appropriate policy actions to prioritize climate change considerations in our activities and risk assessments to mitigate this driver of insecurity. So I'm curious, um, does Secretary Austin, retired general, know what the biggest impact on the weather is? On the climate? Because it's not man-made. Whatever impact man has on the environment is negligible, truly fractal in proportion to the effect that a large yellow fireball in the sky has on our climate. Yes, the Sun, along with the Moon a little bit, but mostly the Sun, has a larger effect on our environment than anything humans or flatulent cows have.

You guys are not going to believe what is going on in Illinois right now. Shocking that I have to say that. It's that bad, you guys.

It's beyond your wildest—

I actually, I'm only like peripherally aware of this, so please go ahead.

So recently the Illinois State Board of Education approved this new rule for statewide curriculum mandates called the Culturally Responsive Teaching and Leading Standards. And right now it's pending before the Illinois General Assembly and will be voted on on February 16th to put into all curriculum for K-12 schools in Illinois. But essentially, it's a new law that forces teachers to, in their words, embrace and encourage progressive viewpoints and perspectives. That's, you know, fancy buzzwords, but what does that actually mean? Essentially, teachers are mandated by law to discuss current political controversies in class. They have to organize prioritize what they call action civics, which are field trips, student protests, lobbying expeditions on behalf of causes like gun control or the Green New Deal. They have to admit that there's unlimited numbers of genders and prioritize representation in the class. This is in a state legislative bill, state legislative bill, and they're doing everything they can to bring this to the national level and essentially implement it as part of Common Core for all public schools nationwide. This is in addition to critical race theory, which is already a problem in Chicago.

Oh, it's terrible.

If you guys aren't familiar with with the 1619 Project from the New York Times. That's among the most woke curriculum you could possibly imagine, but that's already been implemented to all Chicago public schools. So this is in addition to that reality, statewide stuff. And this would be statewide, the state of Illinois.

This would be in District 211. This would be all across the state of Illinois.

And you might ask, what happens if a teacher, a bold, brave teacher who's rational, says no? They get their teaching license taken away.

Dinesh, we've got a new president now. He's been in office for about 5 or 6 days. What are your thoughts?

He doesn't seem to be very much Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here, and I welcome you to the show. Got a number of calls, 1-800-PRAGER-776. I'm going to— a number of people are challenging me, which is wonderful. I, unlike the New York Times, I have alternate views on the show. We invite leftists all the time. They don't come on. And there's a very good reason. They're smart for not coming on. Not because I would ever mock them. I had some of the biggest leftists over the course of my career. I was even respectful to Howard Zinn, who I thought did more harm to this country than almost any one individual in my lifetime, and I treated him with respect. Just for the record. But they don't come on, as I've written, they don't debate because everything they stand for is a combination of dogma and emotion. 1-800-PRAGER-776. And I'm getting— I want to get to the my article up to answer some of you. Here we go. Okay, so now we are going to go to a call, and we begin with David in Culver City, California. Hello, Dennis.

Yeah, your constant diatribes against the New York Times— I mean, the courts have determined there was no election fraud. In our society, the courts are the triers of fact. You keep bringing up anecdotes about this and doubts about that. I mean, if the courts are allowed to decide if somebody lives or dies in capital punishment cases, we don't trust them to decide if the election was fraudulent or not. I mean, there are always doubts about anything. I mean, but the courts have ruled. The New York Times is not stating anything that's not factually determined by the courts. The Trump team—

tell me, okay, so let me ask you, tell me the court, and I, I really may not know the answer, I acknowledge that. Tell me the court that allowed a hearing on the elections of 2020.

The Supreme Court, federal court in New York, federal court—

no, no, allowed a hearing on, allowed evidence to be to be offered and then adjudicated as opposed to dismissing the case?

Well, as far as I know, they didn't find there was evidence. That's a finding, Dennis. That's a finding in court, right? Just like when the Supreme Court turns down death penalty, uh, Supreme Court has—

all right, the Supreme Court, Supreme Court has not ruled in this matter. There was no nothing to bring to that.

They felt there was the evidence was wanting. They didn't find evidence, right? That's important, Dennis. You keep glossing over that. They didn't find the little anecdotes.

Okay, so when— how many people— and I'm really, as you know, I clarify rather than debate. So how many people giving a— I know, that's why I feel, I feel people are welcome and feel welcome to call me.

So how many people left field person, incidentally.

Right, fair. And I'm not a conspiracy person. I have debunked conspiracies for 34 years. This— I don't think there's a—

I didn't say you are.

I know you are. No, I didn't say you were a leftist, but you stated you weren't, and I want you to know what I'm not. That's all. That was a— it was a—

okay, all right.

It was right. Okay, so, uh, all of the people who swore under oath and could be jailed for perjury that they saw fraud. You think they're lying?

I'm sure some of them are lying. I'm sure some of them are misperceiving. I'm sure some of them are political hacks. I'm sure there's a whole collection of reasons people signed affidavits. Yes, I've got news for you, Dennis. Remember you said people are depraved, we're born depraved, people lie in pursuit of political causes. The New York Times lies. Why couldn't some of these people—

well, because the New York Times can't be sued and or go to jail for its headline, but these people who swore on affidavits could go to jail. So there's a much bigger risk.

They were—

well, I'm curious, do you—

all I know is—

go ahead.

I'm sorry.

All right, let me ask you a question. Do you, do you think Do you think that Nixon or Kennedy won? Do you think that Nixon was cheated out of an election?

You know, Dennis, you may have no opinion, which is fine.

I'm just curious. Are you—

I don't have it. I don't, I don't have an opinion.

All right, so, so then that— so you're in the same state that I'm in. You're agnostic on, on the 1960 election, and I'm agnostic on the 2020 election.

However, the 2020 election has been adjudicated very carefully.

No, it's not. It's not. Okay. That's okay. That's the first place where we really differ. It hasn't been adjudicated at all. There has been no evidence presented. They didn't even allow a hearing because they didn't find any evidence.

You can't go to court without evidence. What you consider evidence, they considered anecdote. That's important, Dennis.

Yeah, well, isn't— wait, I thought— first of all, for the record, it wasn't just one court, correct?

It wasn't just one court, it was numerous courts.

Okay, all right, that— all right, so look, thank you for the call, I appreciate it, as you know. So we have here, uh, there's a divide. I believe that no legitimate hearing took place, that whatever. For example, the Supreme Court ruled that Texas did not have the standing to sue other states for the rules that they did that violated rules. Why did California, which was of course not a— no debate about who won California, nobody claims there is— but why did California send out tens of millions of ballots to people who didn't ask for them? Way in advance of Election Day? Why did Pennsylvania change rules, uh, with regard to voting that dramatically increased the possibility of fraud? Why did they do these things? Why don't we have an Election Day anymore? Why do we have an election month? There are countries that don't even allow mail-in ballots, with the rare exception of the person who requests one for legitimate reasons. We're the only— we're one of the only countries on earth, I'm talking about democracies, that do not require an identification for voting. If you sign the petition in California to remove— what's the word? Not remove. What is the word for, uh, What, with Newsom recall? If you sign the petition to recall Governor Newsom, they check your signature, uh, very, very carefully. There's no such thing with elections. There's more ID given when you, when you use your credit card to, to get a Starbucks than there is for an election, to vote in an election. There should have been a— if tens of millions of Americans are agnostic or convinced otherwise, I'm not in either direction, as you know, wouldn't it be a unifying thing to have a real hearing on this? Let the American people be told the anecdotes, if you will, back in a moment.

Donald Trump incites a terrorist attack and they have a different standard.

Your assessment of Jake's assessment, Senator?

Well, I think people are being very loose with their language here. The president's been impeached for inciting, inciting an insurrection, which has a very technical meaning. But we know that there's a lot of loose language here in Washington, D.C. I think about Chuck Schumer over at the, over at the Supreme Court saying that to Gorsuch and Kavanaugh said, "You'll never know what hit you." Maxine Waters telling anti-Trumpers to get in the face of people who support the president. I think we just need to realize that we need to temper our speech here because there are people who will take it perhaps much farther than anybody ever intended. But I don't believe the president intended to incite violence. I do believe he intended to try to, try to influence the Congress during the certification of the electoral vote. But I don't think you can also impeach somebody for speech that is protected by the First Amendment, which this may well be under Brandenburg v. Ohio.

I've talked about that already, so I won't go over that. What Jake also said, Bill Clinton was impeached while he was in office and the trial occurred when he was in office. Donald Trump, it's just factually different. And when journalists weighed into the law, often they embarrass themselves.

Yeah, I agree with that. And I don't know whether Jake thought that impeachment of Clinton was a good idea or not, or he's just citing that as an example where somebody lies under oath. This is not lying under oath.

What do we need to know about COVID that we're not hearing? What is your perspective on it right now? Because it's been— there's never been anything so confusing and so strange in my lifetime.

Well, you know, Eric, I agree with you, and this is politics, and medicine has no place at all. And unfortunately, The information, the freedom of information for patients so they can make their choices is just not out there. And so the very simple solutions that people should know as a public health editorial is prevention is very important that you, you could do today. Don't wait for the virus. Don't wait to get the positive test. Just start today with prevention. And there's 5 things, 5 supplements you can take. There's 5 Lifestyle changes that you can do for prevention, unfortunately, is not told, but you know what? It works. And we started back in March. We had people make sure they elevate their own immune system by 3 key nutrients. And when they increase their vitamin D levels, they increase their zinc levels, they increase their glutathione levels and vitamin C levels. Guess what? These people are more resistant and resilient to all viruses, including COVID. So if they did get the case, it would be reversed quickly or they didn't get it at all. You know how much this cost? You know, the average person, if the government would have given everybody a $100 kit, I believe that a lot of lives would have been saved with the word prevention. We don't hear that anywhere.

Tackling the climate crisis at home and abroad.

Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. We're discussing the New York Times devoting its entire top of its front page to Trump's campaign to subvert the election, how a lie stoked the assault on the Capitol. I'd like to say to those of you calling in, and I appreciate it, as you know, and I go to your calls, who are convinced it is entirely a lie, there is no truth to fraud having taken place in the last election, and to any degree that might have changed the election result, please understand that for a guy like me, who by the way wishes that it that Joe Biden was elected legally, honestly. I wanted Donald Trump to win, but if, if Joe Biden was to win, I, I really wanted it to be without cheating. And if a guy like me entertains doubts, so you can of course dismiss me. It's very the easiest way out. Or you could say, well, Dennis Prager, a 35-year record of pursuing truth, and you're a religious man, and you think you have to answer to God for the issue of lying. So what can we do to prove to you, or at least suggest to you on empirical grounds, that it's just not true? That Joe Biden was in fact elected fairly. So my answer to you is I would love to see a hearing. I would love to see the evidence and then try to use my common sense and pursuit of truth to come to an answer. But we're not allowed. Courts dismiss it before evidence is presented, so there's no trial. So to say that judges have ruled on it, yes, they've ruled that you can't have a trial, which is, they're right, but it doesn't mean that any evidence has been overthrown or determined to be a fraud or dishonest. But more than that, if you claim, if you make a claim with, with just data. You won't be on Facebook, you won't be on Twitter, you won't be on YouTube. Do you not understand that it stokes in decent people, not crackpots, a belief that you're lying to us because you won't allow us to even discuss it? Do you not understand that the suppression of any speech about this virtually any— I'm speaking about it, but virtually any— that if you speak about it, you are declared an insurrectionist, a seditionist. Do you understand? All that does is convince people you are hiding a lie. If you charged my side with something I want a hearing on it. I would love it. For 3 years, the left pursued a lie of Trump campaign collusion with Russia with the unlimited budget of the United States government and a prosecutor to pursue it, and nothing happened. And you are going to tell me we lie, we live in delusion? Uh, you don't have a good track record, you guys on the left. The New York Times lied to this country for 3 years, and I'm supposed to accept that Trump lied and tens of millions of Americans are lying about the election when you say it? Your track record is nil. Your honesty record doesn't exist. You lived the world of a lie for 3 years. Adam Schiff lies with the ease with which I breathe. I have evidence, I have stuff, you will see, it'll come out. Nothing came out. But of course the New York Times won't say he lied. The New York Times is not interested in lies, except perpetuating them. If there was any record on the left of, you know what, we're really defrauding the country with this collusion with Russia stuff, then you would have my respect. New York Times has my disdain. It pervaded a lie for 3 years, and now, now it charges this. How do you know it's a lie? I'm curious, how do you know? The anomalies of this election are unique. There, there is the list, is in my— it's in my column of 2 weeks ago. Was it? No, last week, the most important question about the 2020 election. That's right, January 26th. 132 years, no president has received more votes in his run for reelection and lost. Donald Trump got 10 million more votes in 2020 than 2016 and lost. The anomalies do not lead a fair-minded person to say it's ridiculous. To challenge what has happened. Relief Factor is now currently— the latest little packet is within me. That's right, took my packet today. The thing is as close to a miracle supplement as I've ever taken in my life, hence the magnificent success of this product. I do admit that I don't understand why, if you can afford $20, you wouldn't give it a try for 3 weeks. If you have not nerve pain, I make it very clear, I want— I always want to level with you— but joint or muscle pain, give it a 3-week trial. They claim in 3 weeks it'll either work or it won't.

I often wonder if people have the ability to be objective enough to look at actual data and be truthful, truthful about things like the way Democrat-led states have responded to coronavirus and how Republican-led states have done so. For example, Florida. You know, I, I go a little bit back and forth between the state of Florida and New York, so I get to see how both states are responding to COVID with lockdowns, shutdowns, or some semblance of normalcy. There is a semblance of normalcy in Florida that there is not in New York. So it's a— it's really pretty, pretty stunning to look at the two, at the difference between the way the two states and the two communities really have responded to this pandemic. But have you looked at the data? Because to listen to the mainstream media, Ron DeSantis is just some wild, out-of-control lunatic who has totally botched Florida's coronavirus response. But Andrew Cuomo, on the other hand, is Mother Teresa and has done everything perfectly, and the numbers are great, and everything's wonderful in New York. And of course, nothing could be further from the truth. If you put on a chart the deaths per capita, the illness, the infection rate, the economy— if you lay it all on a, on a chart and compare Florida to California and New York, It's not even a close call.

Numbers matter. And think about the fact that they always tout the popular vote as opposed to the Electoral College. That's why every vote matters. Even if you're in California, you like yourself, Victor, in Maryland, every single vote matters. And this is why you never give up. It's not an excuse, but you're absolutely right from the historical perspective. Politics is cyclical. It truly is cyclical. You know, you get a Reagan because of a Carter. That's absolutely true. You get a Donald Trump because of what? Because of the betrayal. Of the American people by both sides of the political aisle. So the idea that simply because they managed to do what they did in November, that that's it, we're done? Absolutely not.

Think about Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. I just googled evidence 2020 election not honest, so a page of URLs of articles comes up. Every single one about what a lie it is. So you try another page, second page, every single article that comes up, it's a lie. Third page, every single article that comes up, it's a lie. I'm up to page 11. I'm 11 pages deep into Google, not a single article has come up with regard to evidence that 2020 election was not honest. I don't know if it's honest. I told you I've been agnostic from the beginning, giving nobody any pleasure. The people who were sure that it was fraudulently lost or won, if you will, I'm not happy with my stance. And the people who are absolutely certain it was honest are not happy with my stance. I apologize to both of you, but that is my stance. I, I— but I need you to understand, those of you who are certain it's a lie, did you ever read a single thing? I don't— and if you did, where did you find it? Because if I Google this evidence, I'll bet you I— I— you know what, I wonder if we put in evidence for flat Earth would anything come up? You put in evidence for Russian collusion, I'm sure you'll be inundated with websites. I've gone 11 pages, that's as far as I could go of results in Google. Not one, not one article that came up concerns offering evidence, which is what I Googled. However, I'll tell you what came up on page 12: Myanmar military promises election. I'm so deep into the results in Google that I'm getting results about Myanmar elections, the former Burma. Quite something, isn't it? I mean, it's, it's like exhausted tracking. Why did this come up? From TallahasseeReports.com, January 31st, tracking Florida COVID-19 COVID-19 cases. All right, so you get— see, if you folks who are convinced that we're deluded would allow the evidence to be presented, just as the delusion of Russian collusion evidence was presented for 3 years and nothing came up. If, if I— if you call me to tell me that there was no fraud in this, in the 2020 election, I need to know if you pursue truth or not. Did you believe— which is fine if you believe that there was collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign— but did you finally conclude that that was a lie? Then you have credibility with me. Otherwise, you're calling up to give me a partisan take on the issue, which is fine. You're welcome to call, but I just want you to know. That that is the way it is. Jimmy in Sarasota, Florida, hello.

Hey Dennis, I love you, but I hope it was a slip of the tongue you mentioned that the Republicans stuck by Trump.

Paul Ryan in the House had went against him, and sleeping RINOs who were covert and sometimes overt, McConnell McCarthy just recently both jumped ship when everybody knows that the Capitol was breached, or breached, excuse me, while Trump was still speaking.

They never supported him.

A majority of them, I mean, it's a handful of Republicans are sticking by him, Jimmy Jordan, Biggs. Just a handful of them.

Shoot, tell me, tell me what legislation he wanted passed. You may have followed this more than I, that the Republican Senate, for example, rejected.

Oh, I don't know. You got me.

Okay, I don't want to get you. I just, I just, if you, if you overstate, no, no, no, you're overstating and thereby undermining the Republicans. I was stunned at how the Republican Party stood by Donald Trump for 4 years. I did not expect them to be as loyal to his agenda as they were. I mean, think of what McConnell did with regard to the Supreme Court. Supreme Court. I mean, it's, it's his— he is— that's why he's so hated by the left. Why would they hate him so much if he weren't such a fighter for, for the cause?

I thought they could— they jump ship.

McCain voted Obamacare down. That is true that they did. They didn't go 100%. I, I just— I acknowledge that. This is politics. So let me say, let me thank you very much for the call. Let me address what was just raised by Jimmy in Sarasota. I have no utopian streak in me. My view of life in a nutshell is the human being, human nature is so rotten that it's astonishing that anything good happens. Okay, that's my basic view of life. Therefore, I am anti-utopian. I have a much bigger belief that dystopia is the natural state, not utopia. It's one of the reasons I hate the left, because they're utopian. They don't understand how spectacular America is given the human condition. That was my speech at my synagogue this past Saturday. And I will address it at length on this program. So I was stunned at how, generally speaking, the Republicans went along with the president, given all of the hatred of the media. It's not fun. I don't care about it, but politicians hate being hated. We'll be back.

You get a Donald Trump because of what? Because of the betrayal. Of the American people by both sides of the political aisle. So the idea that simply because they managed to do what they did in November, that that's it, we're done? Absolutely not. Think about one thing and one thing alone. How did they treat Donald Trump when he came down those escalators? And I don't mean just the left. I don't mean the late-night talk show hosts, the quote-unquote comedians. I mean the right, the establishment. Do you remember? And what happened? He trounced them all. Even after the Billy Bush tape, he was a force of nature. That's the attitude I want to see in all Americans. Be more like Donald Trump. Never ever give up, because that's what being an American is to me.

So the World Economic Forum is meeting virtually. If you don't know what the World Economic Forum is, the World Economic Forum is a gathering of the richest, most well-connected people on the planet. They usually meet in Davos, Switzerland, which is very hard to get to. And in Davos, Switzerland, a lot of very big globalist ideas are introduced. And so this is what— this is talked about sometimes in conservative circles as the Davos Agenda or as the kind of globalist agenda. This is their Super Bowl. This is where they do their planning and their announcements. This is where you'll have the Bill Gateses of the world, the Jeff Bezos of the world, the heads of state from around the world gather, and they basically say, how can we destroy sovereignty of our nations? How can we try and have free flow of people and make ourselves more important. Now, we have gone into great detail on—

in this program, in the Great Reset, what the Great Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager and I don't know, how did we even get to— oh yes, I know how we got to it. The New York Times has 5/6 of its columns, the entire top half page devoted to Trump's campaign to subvert the election. So Trump is the, what does it mean campaign to subvert it? Was anything, what was done to subvert it? People made claims, they were not heard, they went into court, they were dismissed. So what does it mean to subvert it? What was done? Were people kidnapped? I know they like to use January 6th as an example. These people who went, who, and I condemned it, I condemned it within an hour. Every leading Republican condemned it. Something that pales in comparison in its violence to the 6 months of violence on the left, which went almost unreported, let alone uncondemned. I know, yes, there was Joe Biden. I got all the Twitter, all the tweets that Joe Biden engaged in to say, oh, we can't have violence. Took him 5 days to begin. And nobody, and nobody paid attention to it. It was done so he could say he condemned it. So tell me, how does, how did he subvert the election? Did he, did he call in troops to Washington, D.C. in the thousands? Oh, the Democrats did, right? The Democrats did. Unbelievable. Well, let's see here. Franklin in Chatsworth, California. Hello.

Hi. Um, you had a caller on earlier, uh, who, uh, yes, was telling that, um, there's no reason to doubt the validity of this election. And, um, I wanted to add to what everybody had to say. There are several things. One is, uh, uh, Republican Chris McCrabb, the director of cyber security and technology, said this was the most secure election in American history. Obviously, he would have access to information that the rest of us wouldn't have had. William Barr, after an extensive investigation into possible voter fraud. So Biden clearly won the election. I don't think, uh, uh, was biased against Trump. Okay, uh, can I, uh, add a few more things? Yeah, in every, uh, state-challenged election, machine and hand recounts and audits came up with virtually the same tallies. In other words, you know, there was really no opportunity to cheat because there's so many safeguards built into the system.

Well, all I'm asking— and that's why you may be right, I don't dismiss what you're saying— but the inability of the average American to hear the evidence is troubling to me. I would love to air this for the sake of what Joe Biden calls unity.

Dinesh, we've got a new president now. He's been in office for about 5 or 6 days. What are your thoughts?

He doesn't seem to be very much in control of the situation, but he has been very vigorous in signing a blizzard of executive orders. Orders, all of which seem to me thoroughly destructive. The business about climate change, the executive orders on oil leasing and fracking. Of course, he suspended the— he got rid of the 1776 Commission. So he's doing all the bad stuff we warned people that he would do. And at some point you've got to ask, isn't this going to have a very bad effect on America? A little part of me wishes that it does, because I think We have to open the eyes of the American people to what moving in a socialist direction means. So yes, I think we're off to a very bad start. It's what we warned about, and we're about to see the fruits of it.

Well, but Dinesh, we're healing. He's reaching out to the other side and urging everybody to heal. I recall when President Trump was campaigning, Dinesh, as you know, one of the big applause lines was, "Lock her up, lock her up." One of the first things he did was to say, I'm not going to pursue her, quote, she suffered enough. And he felt he wanted to concentrate on his own agenda. When is Biden going to pick up the phone, Dinesh, and call Schumer and call Pelosi and say, call off the dogs? This is an idiotic trial, and we shouldn't be wasting the American people's time with it.

Well, the very fact that they're pushing ahead with it, I mean, it looks like they may have up to 5 Republican votes, not even necessarily 5 5 just for hearing it, and the other 45 would have thrown it straight out.

You voted yesterday against proceeding with the impeachment trial.

Why?

This is an unprecedented impeachment trial, as you know. Never has it happened before in American history, and there's no clear path forward as, uh, in the Constitution or laws themselves. As you know, the Chief Justice is not presiding. The Constitution provides that when the President of the United States is tried in a court of impeachment, the Supreme Court Chief Justice shall preside. So this is kind of like making it up as we go along here, and I have some very serious concerns about the legitimacy of this whole process.

Now, Senator Cornyn, I and Judge Littig and Alan Dershowitz and Professor Turley have argued for weeks now it is unconstitutional to try a former official, and it is not something we want to begin to do. There is one contrary example from the 19th century when a former Secretary of War was tried, but I believe many senators changed their mind about jurisdiction thereafter. Do you believe it's constitutional to try former officials?

Well, as you know, in Federalist 65, Hamilton says that impeachment is really different than anything else, and it's essentially a political process. I, but I think just from a prudential standpoint, even if you would say that this is permissible, I think it's a terrible idea and a terrible precedent. This means that if a Democratic majority in the House and Senate can try a former Republican president, it means a Republican majority in the House and the Senate could try a previous Democrat president. I think that's a terrible idea and we shouldn't do it.

So let's get right to it. This is a brand new book, How Do We Turn Our Seasons Around? Because a lot of us are going through tough seasons. I'm going through a slump right now. I'm hitting.220, and that's just not right.

I remember when the media would write me off and say, well, you know, he's having a first half of the season that's not so good. But they forgot I have 82 ballgames left. You have a whole second half of your season. Okay, now we've been in the middle of a struggle, crisis in this nation. And the season has to turn around. You have to go through a period. We might be going through like 8 months, 9 months. But at the end of the day, we walk into 2021 and you have to think about a fresh outlook. And I think that's what life is really all about. That's just the way God works. God works in some mysterious ways and he works in your life to meet you right where you're at. And I think we're all in the same boat. Today. And, you know, for me to have a book that comes out, Turn Your Season Around, we're all going to have to turn our season around. How God transformed your life. He transformed your life if you meet him right where he's at. You know, the thing about it is what I laugh about, a lot of people say, well, how did you find Jesus? Well, Jesus has never been lost. We are the ones that were lost. We are the ones that have to turn our season around. And he just meets us right in the midst of our season and he brings us to a greater understanding and a purpose. Why he created us. And that's the cool thing about having a relationship with God.

The Bible is full of stories of, you know, the Israelites up against the Red Sea. Their season was over. And then, you know, God turned their season around.

I often wonder if people have the ability to be objective enough to look at actual data and be truthful, truthful about things like the way Democrat-led states have responded to coronavirus and how Republican-led states have done so. For example, Florida. You know, I, I go a little bit back and forth between the state of Florida and New York. So I get to see how both states are responding to COVID with lockdowns, shutdowns, or some semblance of normalcy. There is a semblance of normalcy in Florida that there is not in New York. So it's a— it's really pretty, pretty stunning to look at the two, at the difference between the way the two states and the two communities really have responded to this pandemic. But have you looked at the data? Because to listen to the mainstream media, Ron DeSantis is just some wild, out-of-control lunatic who has totally botched Florida's coronavirus response.

But Andrew Cuomo on the Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager, and if you're just tuning in, I hope you had a good weekend. And if you are just tuning in, I want you to know I have a 3-hour show every day. And it's easily gotten at pragertopia.com, where it comes to you in fact commercial-free. At Prager Utopia, there's also a way to hear all the shows, all the speeches, all the courses that I have given. Speech and Sedition in 2021. Wall Street Journal editorial board is conservative, but I would say they don't like to— they're afraid of being perceived as right-wing. They're okay with being conservative, so they— and none of this is a criticism, this is a description— they really watch their language. I mean, I owe the editorial board a great deal of debt as an American, and from the perspective of PragerU, they have written 3 editorials on behalf of PragerU and the suppression of PragerU. By the way, if you're prepared living martyr to comment on what's happening, you let me know. I think people should be aware of what is taking place with PragerU and the internet. Progressive press decides that dissenters should be suppressed. This is the editorial in the Wall Street Journal this weekend. Many calls to sanction opposition media come from voices that claim to be most alarmed by Donald Trump's attacks on the free press. Margaret Sullivan, The Washington Post media columnist, wrote this week, quote, corporations that advertise on Fox News should walk away, declaring that the outlet's, quote, role in the 400,000 U.S. lives lost to the pandemic and in the disastrous attack of January 6th has been deadly. So this is the— The Washington Post has called for a boycott by advertisers of Fox News because of the role that it played in the 400,000 US lives lost. What is the role that the, uh, that, that Fox News played in 400,000 lives lost? Do you know what she's talking about? How about the role played by the left-wing press in suppressing all of the knowledge we have about hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and ivermectin? The Washington Post and the New York Times and the whole left-wing media, they have played a much more provable role in American death in COVID than Fox News. And they played a role in January 6th. So did the left-wing press play a role in 6 months of Antifa and BLM riots? No, of course not. So this is what's called mainstream press.

That's—

remember, this is an editorial by the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal. These are not flamethrowers. The flamethrowers are at the Washington Post. They continue: Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times called for, quote, Pressure on advertisers to withdraw from Fox News so long as it functions as an extremist madrasa. Madrasa is Arabic for school, and the use of it is generally about schools that teach Islamist extremism and terror. Okay, this is Nicholas Kristof, who's not even the most far left of the New York Times, completely left with one or two exceptions out of 50, and they're all Trump haters, so that's important. There was not one columnist who, in the New York Times, I don't think there was one article defending the president for 4 years. Anyway, Nicholas Kristof also, as he compares Fox News— this is their fight— there should not be any non-left-wing source of information in this country. Get it? That is because, as I wrote, and this is very important, there is no example in the history of the world of the left being in power and not suppressing dissent. Dissent is to the left what kryptonite is to Superman. Even a little bit and it's over. That's why they don't want us to speak on college campuses. In one hour, they are afraid we can undo the 4 years of lies and indoctrination that are called a college education. These, these are incredible things. Now, the, the attempt to, to get rid of Fox News like they got rid of Parler. We can't even make an alternate source of information, of opinion. It all has to be left-wing or we suppress you. That's why I divide between leftists and liberals. Liberals believed in free speech. Now they don't give a damn about it because they think their enemy is us, not the left. Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times added, cable providers should be asked why they distribute channels that peddle lies. The generalizations they talk about, if you read any of my columns, I back up to every generalization with a fact. Every single one. They never do. Never. It's an unbelievable thing. How did she— Margaret Sullivan of the Washington Post— how does she want to give me evidence that the role— that specific evidence— the role that Fox News played in 400,000 COVID deaths? Your paper played a role, as I said just before, in suppressing news about hydroxychloroquine and zinc and ivermectin. A CNN writer asserted that providers like Comcast, quote, have escaped scrutiny and entirely dodged this conversation, unquote. By conversation, he means political bullying from the left. Thomas Friedman in the New York Times. Thomas Friedman should write a book. He's written a lot of books. He should really write one on the thing that he is truly a master of: self-esteem. If Thomas Friedman wrote a book on self-esteem, I would buy it. That is his single greatest virtue. By the way, I have a standing invitation. Thomas Friedman, I will respectfully dialogue with you anytime. I had a dialogue with your colleague Bret Stephens on the New York Times Facebook account. Bret Stephens wrote a piece on me. I wrote a piece on Bret Stephens. So you could ask Bret Stephens if I am worthy of having a dialogue with you. My friend, you will sooner visit Mars than Thomas Friedman would come on this show. Thomas Friedman in the New York Times also called for a business boycott of some Fox News shows and announced that Facebook needs to, quote, surprise us by once and for all, stopping the elevation for profit of news that divides and enrages over more authoritative, even-handed news sources. What does that mean? So in other words, Facebook, you should be suppressing conservative voices even more than you now do. This is from Tom Friedman, who's not— who's considered a liberal at the New York Times. He's closer to fascism than he is to liberalism. I'm not calling him a fascist. I don't believe he is. I'm telling you though that he is closer to it than he is to liberal. Censor dissent is closer to fascism than liberalism. Is that fair to say? Only non-divisive sources will be allowed such as those that compare popular media outlets to extremists, to an extremist madrasa. A former Facebook executive was more straightforward when he said on CNN, we have to turn down the capability of these conservative influencers to reach huge audiences. They're direct censor conservatives, first time in American history.

Ron DeSantis is a Republican, so therefore has to be portrayed as some kind of a yahoo. And Cuomo who it was literally revealed yesterday underreported COVID deaths in nursing homes by around 50%, he gets the victory lap, he gets the book deal, he gets the Emmy Award. These clowns, even when they're faced with horrific news Like the attorney general in New York and her scathing report showing the disastrous response by Cuomo with his mandate that nursing homes must take COVID-19 infected people, which sent thousands and thousands of elderly people to their deaths. Well, here's CNN's take. Last night, honest to goodness, this came down at like 8 o'clock at night. Headline by Chris Salazar, CNN editor-at-large. Analysis: Andrew Cuomo's COVID-19 performance may have been less stellar than it seemed. Less— may have been less stellar.

Under oath Donald Trump incites a terrorist attack and they have a different standard.

Your assessment of Jake's assessment, Senator?

Well, I think people are being very loose with their language here. The president's been impeached for inciting, inciting an insurrection, which has a very technical meaning. But we know that there's a lot of loose language here in Washington, D.C. I think about Chuck Schumer over at the Supreme Court saying that to Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, said, "You'll never know what hits you." Maxine Waters telling anti-Trumpers to get in the face of people who support the president. I think we just need to realize that we need to temper our speech here because there are people who will take it perhaps much farther than anybody ever intended. But I don't believe the president intended to incite violence. I do believe he intended to try to influence the Congress during the certification of the electoral vote. But I don't think you can also impeach somebody for speech that is protected by the First Amendment, which this may well be under Brandenburg v. Ohio.

I've talked about that already, so I won't go over that. What Jake also said, Bill Clinton was impeached while he was in office and the trial occurred when he was in office. Donald Trump. It's just factually different. And when journalists wade into the law, often they embarrass themselves.

Yeah, I agree with that. And I don't know whether Jake thought that impeachment of Clinton was a good idea or not, or he's just citing that as an example where somebody lies under oath. This is not lying under oath.

What do we need to know about COVID Hello.

All right, everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. Want to, uh, tell you, as you know, I am very committed to supplements and all sorts of things that can help you stay healthy. I am very healthy and I thank God. I'm 50% is luck and 50% I work on it. So here's a good example. There's a product that I've endorsed because I use it, Navage, N-A-V-A-G-E, navage.com. It's at Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Target. It cleans out your nasal passages. Simple as that. You will breathe better, you will be healthier. It's— once you get the hang of it, takes, uh, for some people it's immediate, for some people you just gotta figure out how to exactly place it. I'm just telling you that because I level with you about every product that I endorse. It's fantastic, but don't give up if you— if it's tough to use the first time. That's all. Just gotta get the fit right in your nose. And it's, it's a phenomenal product. Navage.com. N-A-V-A-G-E. Cleanses your nose, your nasal passages, your sinuses. You breathe better. Navage.com, or at all the places I mentioned where you can buy it. Reading to you about the calling for the suppression of all conservative voices New York Times, Washington Post. The death of liberalism is the crisis of this country. The left has destroyed liberals. They're either cowards, naive, or have become leftists. That's what has happened to the great American liberal, and I'm not kidding about the great American liberal. I was raised in a great liberal environment, believed in being colorblind, believed in racial integration, believed race doesn't matter, we're all created in God's image, believed in capitalism because it's the only route out of poverty for vast numbers of people, believed in free speech.

Yep.

So liberals are divided into 3 camps. I should remember that when I just came out with— what was, what was that? What were the 3 that I mentioned? Let's see. Naive. They're either naive or they have become leftist. There was a third one. Figure that out. Oh, cowards. Yeah, that's the third. It's true. Stand up to the left today takes courage. I continue with the Wall Street Journal editorial. There were already calls for the FCC, Federal Communications Commission, to revive the Fairness Doctrine that enforced speech rules when there were three dominant TV networks. It died in the 1980s. The Axios website complained that, quote, the U.S. government has done next to nothing to regulate misinformation on large tech platforms. And the founder of the liberal fact-checker PolitiFact floated, quote, regulations and new laws, unquote, to marginalize right-wing media. You're listening to a right-wing medium. We are their ultimate aim. Yep, they know. Every leftist knows that if you hear any conservative ideas, you might change your mind. That is why they don't print us, publish us, hear us, listen to us, allow us to speak whenever possible. They can't suppress everything immediately, but they suppress what they can. That's why they don't debate. I keep reminding you, the deplatforming pressure is spreading from social media with the destruction of Twitter competitor Parler as the most prominent recent example, to other forms of communication. A petition now urges publishing houses to reject book proposals from anyone who worked in the Trump administration. And the Associated Press is calling podcasts a loophole in social media moderation. Yeah, a conservative having a podcast, can't allow that. Ask your liberal relatives about these things. Ask him if there's to ask. I gotta write this, I really do. Questions to ask your liberal brother-in-law. One of them would be, is there a more important freedom than free speech? Tell me something more important than free speech in society. Can you think of any? I can't. I was raised with give me liberty or give me death. I wonder how many seniors at prestigious colleges— colleges, not high schools, colleges— can name the author of the statement "Give me liberty or give me death"? I knew it in third grade. Misinformation is the all-purpose excuse given to justify new and aggressive censorship, as if disagreement and falsehoods are a never-before-seen phenomenon in politics. Quote, this is MSNBC host Nicole Wallace: If we can protect against counterfeit dollar bills We should be able to protect against fake news that we know has the potential to kill people. Wow, we like that. LA Times headline: Dining ban helped flatten curve. They have it, as I said from the beginning, they have it both ways. If they, if they destroy the livelihoods of millions of people people, they say, look, we flattened the curve. I'm sorry, but you know, we flattened the curve. And if they don't flatten the curve, they say, you know how much higher it would have been if we didn't put people out of business? People who have their incomes ruin the lives of people who don't have incomes. That's the rule. That is the other name for Lockdown. We who get our income will make sure that many don't have an income. Do they suffer for their policies? No way. Has Newsom made a penny less? Have teachers made a penny less? Teachers are still being paid, right? Is that correct? That's a phenomenon. No, we won't teach because we'll die. They, they say follow the science. You know what the chances are of a teacher getting, getting killed by COVID from a student? You know what the chances are? Less than being killed driving to school. Teachers is another profession ruined by the left. It's very sad to me. I was raised to adore teachers. I taught at high school and college. I loved it, especially the high school.

Uh, Sally Pipes is my guest. Sally, do you think it's fair to say that the majority of Americans are really too afraid to have healthcare, uh, take— to have the private sector completely run healthcare? They don't trust the private sector enough to allow the private sector to run healthcare. They've been trained to fear the private sector and to embrace government to the point now where a discussion about unraveling government entanglement in healthcare we can't even have anymore.

Well, first of all, Larry, we don't have a complete private market in healthcare in this country. As you know, 50% of our healthcare is in the hands of government through Medicare, the program for our seniors, of which covers 65 million. Medicaid, the program for low-income people, that covers now 70 million Americans.

Hi everybody. Hey everybody, Dennis Prager here. And I watched Ami Horowitz's latest video series, Ami on the Loose. And, uh, it's— I usually have a lot of fun with Ami because we do have a lot of fun, and— but this video is so depressing I can't, I can't figure out how to make a joke there, uh, uh, I mean, I don't know what to say.

You know, look, I oftentimes use a cute premise to highlight a very important underlying issue. I can't think, frankly, of a more important underlying issue in this particular video. Um, and then I'll I'll walk through the, the, um, for the audience and they got to see the whole video because you really give me it where they can see it on Prager, on, on DennisPrager.com because explaining it does not truly, you don't, you're not truly able to paint the picture of how terrible and awful this is. Yeah. Look, we all know that we are, our freedom of, of, of expression, our freedom of speech has been under assault.

Right.

I've asked myself this question, you've asked yourself this question, how could it be such a fundamental piece of our democracy could be under assault? And what I realized was because the left of our country, and a good portion, I hate to say, of our student body at universities are in fact members of the left, not liberals, of the left. They have been taught in no fidelity to our founding principles and documents. And I wanted to prove that. I want to show that not by me saying it. And people say, yeah, I hear it all the time, but is it really true? So I went out to prove it. And the way I did that was I had a hidden camera. They didn't know I was, I was filming them. And I had a petition at Yale University. Dennis, you've heard of Yale University? It's in Connecticut.

It's a pretty good school. Thank you. No, no, I take issue with with you. I heard of it, but it's not a pretty good school.

Fair enough. I couldn't get it, let's put it that way.

Um, I'm sorry, Ami, it doesn't matter.

I know, I know.

Okay, go on.

Still, you know, it always sits in your craw, you know, getting a certain school.

Okay.

I couldn't get into any of the Ivies, but you're right, at the end of the day, it actually makes absolutely no difference. In fact, I probably have an advantage in terms of wisdom That's right, having not gone to a school like that.

Yep.

Um, but what we figure, okay, it's Yale. Now they may have not have wisdom, they certainly have intellect, right?

That's fair.

And, um, I had a petition to repeal the entire U.S. Constitution. Obviously you can't actually do that, but they're not smart enough to know that. Um, but I was asking them if they wanted to get rid, just trash in whole, the entire U.S. Constitution. Institution. And, and, you know, you've told me before, and I— this time I thought I'd put in the actual statistics of how many kids who I engage with signed this document, right? And so I put in the video, 65% of all the kids who I engaged signed this petition. And with— and, and, and furthermore, of the 35%— I'm not sure if I'm at the right— so the 35% that didn't sign it There wasn't a single student who looked at me and said, "Are you insane? Are you the dumbest person in the world? What are you doing?" Not one.

So I'm not sure who's telling you what to— Yes, so let me explain this to everybody. I'm just repeating in my own words what Ami just told you.

Um, you voted yesterday against proceeding with the impeachment trial.

Why?

This is an unprecedented impeachment trial, as you know. Never has it happened before in American history, and there's no clear path forward as, uh, in the Constitution or laws themselves. As you know, the Chief Justice is not presiding. The Constitution provides that when the President of the United States is tried in a court of impeachment, the Supreme Court Chief Justice shall preside. So this is kind of like making it up as we go along here. And I have some very serious concerns about the legitimacy of this whole process.

Now, Senator Cornyn, I and Judge Littig and Alan Dershowitz and Professor Turley have argued for weeks now it is unconstitutional to try a former official. And it is not something we want to begin to do. There is one contrary example from the 19th century when a former Secretary of War was tried, but I believe many senators changed their mind about jurisdiction thereafter. Do you believe it's constitutional to try former officials?

Well, as you know, in Federalist 65, Hamilton says that impeachment is really different than anything else, and it's essentially a political process. I, I, but I think just from a prudential standpoint, even if you would say that this is permissible. I think it's a terrible idea and a terrible precedent. This means that if a Democratic majority in the House and Senate can try a former Republican president, it means a Republican majority in the House and the Senate could try a previous Democrat president. I think that's a terrible idea and we shouldn't do it.

So let's get right to it. This is a brand new book, How Do We Turn Our Seasons Around? Because a lot of us are going through tough seasons. I'm going through a slump right now. I'm hitting.220, and that's just not right.

I remember when the media would write me off and say, well, you know, he's having a first half of the season that's not so good, but they forgot I have 82 ball games left. You have a whole second half of your season. Okay, now we've been in the middle of a struggle crisis in, in this nation, um, and the season has to turn around. You have to go through a period. We might be going through like 8 months, 9 months, but at the end of the day, we walk into 2021 and you have to think about a fresh outlook. And I think that's what life is really all about. Uh, that's just the way God works. How God works in some mysterious ways and He works in your life to meet you right where you're at. And I think we're all in the same boat today. And, you know, for me to have a book that comes out, Turn Your Season Around, we're all going to have to turn our season around. How God transformed your life.

Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here. Ami Horowitz's latest video, it's up at DennisPrager.com, is Ami at Yale University asking students to sign a petition to repeal the US Constitution. 65% of those approached said they would or did. Which one did, did 65% sign?

65% signed the actual document.

Right.

And again, I can't stress this enough, not a single— so the 100% of them did not look at me like I was some kind of a lunatic and some kind of freak who was trying to destroy the fundamental nature of this country, which is exactly what it is. It's just, it's mind-boggling. And the real-world consequences of this, right, it's not theoretical. The real is that these people are gleeful, gleeful in the eradication of our freedom of speech and the eradication of our fundamental freedoms. And that's how we see this happening in real time, whether it be the tech companies or whether it be the left in Congress looking to shut down the freedom of speech of people that disagree with— it's a direct— this is a direct line for A to B from what we did to what they're doing. These real-world consequences.

If the president of Yale saw this, it would not bother him in the least.

No, I, I, I— you're right.

You reap what you sow, and this is what they sow at Yale. Yale is a waste— moral and intellectual wasteland, just like nearly every other college. What really is worth— another reason I want you all to see the video is the number the number of students who volunteered or assented to the proposition that it is a white supremacist document, correct?

And that was almost 100% of the kids that I talked to. Okay, so even some of the people who didn't sign it, almost everyone, when I raised the proposition of this being a white supremacist document, Not again, I'm not talking about that they're saying that the white, that the founders, I mean, that's bad enough to call the founders white supremacists, but okay, let's just put that aside. I'm not saying that. They were calling the document itself, the enshrining of our freedom, the guarantor of our rights. They were calling the document itself racist, right? The document that has lifted more Black people into the higher echelons of our community than in any system, any document on planet Earth. They call that document racist. It is incredible.

That's what they're taught from elementary school on. That's why they don't want us to show up at their campuses. It makes perfect sense. The white supremacist thing was amazing. So I guess they would say that of the Declaration of Independence. Do that next time. Go to Princeton and say, should we repeal the Declaration of Independence? Should we, should we vote to condemn it?

Yeah, that's a great idea.

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah.

Or I would be even curious, what do you think that— here's another one for you. I always give you ideas, uh, for whatever they're worth. And here is another one. Ask them, ask students on some prestigious college campus What do they think of the line from the U.S. Declaration of Independence that we are endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights? Do you think— what do you think that— like, even better, do you think that line should be removed from the Declaration of Independence?

That is so, so obvious, the answer to that. There's a— there's— you're talking about our Creator. There's no way. Yes, they want any mention of God, right, in any document that we do. Oh, that's a non-starter for the left. It's a non-starter.

What was it like? What was the feeling like when you were there? I mean, did— when you spoke to these people, is it like you were— did you feel you're talking to Stepford students? I mean, what was it like?

It's like being in an alternate universe.

Right?

I mean, it's like, it's like I was put in a country where the US either didn't exist or the US turned out to be an evil country, become some kind of like, you know, alternate dimension. It's hard. Look, it's hard to express. Every time I do a video, before I do the video, I go to myself, okay, this is never going to work, right? I've gone too far this time. There's no way they're going to do X or Y or Z. And there is almost without exception. In fact, I can't think of an exception where they ended up actually— I was right that they wouldn't go as far as I thought they would go. They always go as far, if not farther. Look, at one point I did ask them, does the Constitution have any relevance? Forget about the white supremacist racist aspect of it. And if you have a problem with that and you want to give up your freedom because you think it's a terrible document, document for other people. I asked them, does this document have any relevance to you, right? I mean, freedom of speech, freedom of petition, freedom of assembly, freedom of press— does this have any— against the Second Amendment, right? Does it have any resonance to you? And they looked at me and they said, no, no, it doesn't. There's no freedoms.

I got another subject for you in light of that.

Okay, good. Yeah.

Do you have any American heroes? Dead, dead American heroes. I'd be very curious. I am. In this case, I knew what your answer would be about the Constitution.

You can hear me typing, by the way. I'm typing your ideas.

Yes, good. That's— that would— see, this is a question the answer to which I cannot predict. Tell me 2 or 3 Americans, not, not living, don't say dead, not living, that are heroic to you or that you really admire?

Howard Zinn, number one.

I don't know. I don't, I don't know what they'll say. I don't even think they know Zinn's name. I think they know his book. So probably right. Yeah. So I would be very curious. I think that the only real chance is Martin Luther King. So that's why I would say, you know, give me— can you name another one? You know, is he the only one?

Right.

I want people to understand that what we have done to America's youth is deprived them of heroes, and that's a horrible, horrible thing to do. All right, listen, You did a great job, Ami.

Thank you.

You deserve a truly good cigar.

Oh, I look forward to that.

Donald Trump incites a terrorist attack and they have a different standard.

Your assessment of Jake's assessment, Senator?

Well, I think people are being very loose with their language here. The president's been impeached for inciting, inciting an insurrection, which has a very technical meaning. But we know that there's a lot of loose language here in Washington, D.C. I think about Chuck Schumer over at the, over at the Supreme Court saying that to Gorsuch and Kavanaugh said, you'll never know what hit you. Maxine Waters telling anti-Trumpers to get in the face of people who support the president. I think we just need to realize that we need to temper our speech here because there are people who will take it perhaps much farther than anybody ever intended. But I don't believe the president intended to incite violence. I do believe he intended to try to, try to influence the Congress during the certification of the electoral vote. But I don't think you can also impeach Hi everybody, Dennis Prager here.

Got two calls, very— I mean, got a board of calls, but two calls which want me to call. Let's see, so Roger in Virginia, you always make reference to the left wing, why not call it communist suppression? And then there's a call from California Dennis, instead of calling them leftists, call them Democrats. That's who votes for these left ideas. Well, I do call them Democrats, and Democrats used to be liberal. Today they're left-wing. As regards using communism, communist, I have compared them to the Bolsheviks and the New York Times and the media to Pravda on many occasions. However, it's ineffective to call them communists. A communist doesn't have a bad name anymore. Name me a school that has taught communist evil. Name me one school that has taught that 100 million people were killed by communists in the 20th century. The jurist— did your child learn that? In any course in the 12 years that— excuse me, the 16 years that constitute a college education? 16 years. Did they learn about the Gulag Archipelago? Did they learn about Mao Zedong and the deliberate starving of 40 to 60 million people? They know who Pol Pot is? Exterminator of a quarter of his own people, the Cambodians, in just a few years in the 1970s? So calling the left communist, you might as well call them tulips. I would say that communist has as immorally warranted a ring to it, immoral in the deepest sense, as a tulip does. And so it's ineffective. It doesn't mean anything. Those old enough to have lived the Cold War and even many of those, but at least some of those know how evil communism was. The purity of its evil. The non-ambiguity of its evil. If it is evil to enslave a billion people, if it is evil to exterminate 100 million, I'm not talking about wartime, casualties of soldiers, talking about noncombatants. So calling them communists is not, unfortunately, effective.

Tackling the climate crisis at home and abroad. Yes, the country with the largest military capabilities with nuclear weapons is now back to fighting the climate. Just as I explained to you on a prior program, when I was asked to run an exercise with colonels and half-bird colonels from the Obama administration, they too— half of the cohorts in that exercise— said that the climate was our biggest enemy. Well, here's the new Secretary of Defense. The department will immediately take appropriate policy actions to prioritize climate change considerations in our activities and risk assessments to mitigate this driver of insecurity. So I'm curious, um, does Secretary Austin, retired general, know what the biggest impact on the weather is, on the climate, because it's not man-made. Whatever impact man has on the environment is negligible, truly fractal in proportion to the effect that a large yellow fireball in the sky has on our climate. Yes, the sun The sun, along with the moon a little bit, but mostly the sun, has a larger effect on our environment than anything humans or flatulent cows have.

You guys are not going to believe what is going on in Illinois right now. Shocking that I have to say that. It's that bad, you guys. It's beyond your wildest—

I actually, I'm only like peripherally aware of this, so please go ahead.

So recently the Illinois State Board of Education approved this new rule for statewide curriculum mandates called the Culturally Responsive Teaching and Leading Standards, and right now it's pending before the Illinois General Assembly. And will be voted on on February 16th to put into all curriculum for K-12 schools in Illinois. But essentially, it's a new law that forces teachers to, in their words, embrace and encourage progressive viewpoints and perspectives. That's, you know, fancy buzzwords, but what does that actually mean? Essentially, teachers are mandated by law to discuss current political controversies in class. They have to organize what they call action civics, which are field trips, student protests, lobbying expeditions on behalf of causes like gun control or the Green New Deal. They have to admit that there's unlimited numbers of genders and prioritize representation in the class. This is in a state legislative bill, state legislative bill, and they're doing everything they can to bring this to the national level and essentially implement it as part of Common Core for all public schools nationwide. This is in addition to critical race theory, which is already a problem in Chicago.

Oh, it's terrible.

If you guys aren't familiar with the 1619 Project from the New York Times, that's among the most woke curriculum you could possibly imagine. But that's already been implemented to all Chicago public schools. So this is in addition to that reality statewide stuff. And this would be statewide.

This would be in District 214. This would be in District 211. This would be all across the state of Illinois.

And you might ask, what happens if a teacher, a bold, brave teacher who's rational, says no? They get their teaching license taken away.

Dinesh, we've got a new president now. He's been in office for about 5 or 6 days. What are your thoughts?

He doesn't seem to be very much in control of the situation, but he has been very vigorous in signing a blizzard of executive orders, all of which seem to me thoroughly destructive. The business about climate change, the executive orders on oil leasing and fracking. Of course, he suspended the— he got rid of the 1776 Commission. So he's doing all the bad stuff we warned people that he would do. And at some point you've got to ask, isn't this going to have a very bad effect on America? A little part of me wishes that it does, because I think we have to open the eyes of the American people to what moving in a socialist direction means. So yes, I think we're off to a very bad start. It's what we warned about, and we're about to see the fruits of it.

Well, but Dinesh, we're healing. He's reaching out to the other side. And urging everybody to heal. I recall when President Trump was campaigning, Dinesh, as you know, one of the big applause lines was, "Lock her up, lock her up." One of the first things he did was to say, "I'm not going to pursue her. Quote, she suffered enough." And he felt he wanted to concentrate on his own agenda. When is Biden going to pick up the phone, Dinesh, and call Schumer and call Pelosi and say, "Call off the dogs. This is an idiotic trial, and we shouldn't be wasting of the American people's time with it.

Well, the very fact that they're pushing ahead with it, I mean, it looks like they may have up to 5 Republican votes, not even necessarily 5 for conviction, 5 just for hearing it, and the other 45 would have thrown it straight out.

Do you believe it's constitutional to try Well, hello.

That didn't work. Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. I'm going to go straight to my guest, whom I consider heroic. How often do I say that? Pretty rarely. People generally don't know who the heroes of their generation are until another generation has passed. But he's one of them. We've never met personally, but Andy Ngo is one of them. I, I'm sure you're a little embarrassed that you probably don't even know what to do with it, but I just want you to know how, how highly I esteem you.

Dennis, thank you so much for those words. It really does mean a lot.

Good. I hope it does. Andy Ngo has been in Portland for— how long have you been in Portland?

The last time that I relocated back there was in 2009. So I've been there throughout, from before, during, and I guess after the riots. The growth of this American phenomenon known as Antifa.

So Andy Ngo, as some of you may know, was beaten up by Antifa thugs, and he has written now a book coming out tomorrow, Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy. And I hope Every one of you will buy it because it's, it's important to read, and it is important to enable this man who had literally, literally had to flee the United States for his life. He is now in Britain, and I'm speaking to him from there, or I should say he is speaking to me from there. Why did you flee the United States?

Ever since I was beaten on the streets of Portland by Antifa in the summer of 2019, my life has come under increasing threats by these extremists who left me with a brain hemorrhage but did not succeed in killing me. All these death threats over over the year and a half have been reported to police. They've showed up to my home before, and nothing happened. And I just think that— but the breakdown in the rule of law is just not— it's not just unique to Portland. I think we're seeing that in a lot of urban areas. And given the ratcheting up of what they've been doing, in recent months. Um, I've really been on borrowed time. So, um, there was some other stuff that happened which I can't go into detail yet, but, um, it's just, at least for now, temporarily, I've left the US.

Why didn't you just go to Boise, Idaho?

I could have, but I just, I felt like things were were very unstable, and I didn't, you know, for me, I'm a city person, and I didn't, and I could have gone to, I guess, a more rural state and stayed in the city there, but I think I already had some connections to the UK, I go there pretty frequently, and a support system that was already here. I think that The last thing that would be helpful for me would be to be isolated from people on top of the COVID stuff that all of us have been going through already.

Are you surprised that Amazon is still featuring your book?

A little bit. Um, I think, um, Amazon, You know, I guess out of all the, you know, from the different big techs, they're not the worst in that they don't cave right away, whereas Twitter I would say is probably the most egregious in that whenever there's an outrage mob in campaign, they immediately remove people. Facebook isn't far behind. I'm thankful the book is still available to order on Amazon and other sites. It was removed from physical sales in Portland's largest bookstore called Powell's, but that was because these extremists have showed up outside of the business for 6 days causing it to shut down out of safety reasons for 2 of them. You know, some businesses, even if they don't necessarily agree with Antifa's message, they kind of just have to go along now because this is a movement, an organization that makes threats and too often makes good on those threats of violence.

And also, what is the name of that store again in Portland? Powell's.

Yeah.

So Powell's is under attack from the left for merely making your book available online.

Yes, sir.

Right.

So they—

that you're from Portland. It is about an issue directly impacting Portland, and they won't sell it. They won't allow it in the store for fear of violence against their store from Antifa and other leftists. But at least they have it on, on their website, and that is not even acceptable to Antifa. Your book is about Antifa. How did you do research?

I did research by, well, so for the first time that's been published in this book, your readers will get a chance to look at some primary documents from somebody who actually went through the membership process for Rose City Antifa. Which is the largest Antifa group in the U.S., and they're based in Portland. And you'll see that this is not merely a grassroots-led, spontaneous, left-wing protest movement. The process of joining the organization has a vetting process in addition to a radicalization process with extensive amounts of reading and literature. training, training how to fight, how to use firearms. So we are dealing with a homegrown domestic terrorist organization that is connected to many affinity groups, and together they organize and carry out acts of violence against either private citizens or the state. And that is why throughout months of 2020, cities like Portland and Seattle and Minneapolis and many others were on fire and torched to the ground.

What is their end? Nobody is clear about that other than chaos, which is, I do believe, their ultimate end. What do you understand it as? Because they've even started violent protests with Joe Biden as president. president.

Correct.

They've actually done a lot. So one misconception I try to clear up in the book is that even though Democrats have coddled them because of a shared mutual hatred in the previous administration and Trump, Antifa do not view the Democrat Party as allies. In fact, they view them as enemies, part of the same capitalist system that they're seeking to overthrow. And they use capitalism frequently synonymously with fascism, by the way. Their end goal is to abolish the United States, and not just the destruction of the literal nation-state, but also to completely delegitimize its founding ideals, ideals that also form the basis than any other liberal democratic societies. So I know a lot of the violence looks very nihilistic in that it's destruction for the purpose of destruction, but if you actually read their literature and you talk to the extremists, they believe they're working towards a certain goal. And to a degree, they're having a lot of success. Dennis, you may remember that Last year, for more than 3 weeks, they actually seized territory in a major American city, in Seattle, and created this CHAZ. And they created a hard border and declared it to be a sovereign area separate from the United States. And it was a literal no-go zone for police. Police, by a matter of unofficial policy, would not go inside there, even as people were calling for help. Walk every day in and day out, even though people are getting killed inside. The victims had to be carried outside the borders of this territory. And they also claimed territory in autonomous zone in Portland in December. Over the weekend, on Sunday— this should be international news, by the way— Antifa in Olympia, Washington, in the capital of Washington state, actually seized a hotel, a Red Red Line, and there were occupants inside there who had to shelter in place in their room, in 40 rooms. So it became a hostage situation as well. And according to the statement by the city of Olympia, the staff who were assaulted at this Red Line witnessed these extremists bringing in knives, hatchets, and batons.

Why did I not hear about this? Tell me when we come back. In the meantime, is it up at DennisPrager.com? His book coming out tomorrow about Antifa. I want you to read it, but even if you don't, please buy it.

I've talked about that already, so I won't go over that. What Jake also said, Bill Clinton was impeached while he was in office and the trial occurred when he was in office. Donald Trump, it's just factually different. And when journalists wade into the law, often they embarrass themselves.

Yeah, I agree with that. And I don't know whether Jake thought that impeachment of Clinton was a good idea or not, or he's just citing that as an example where somebody Lies under oath. This is not lying under oath.

Happily Unmasked Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy. During the break, Andy, I went to look up this— what happened in Olympia this weekend. So I got this headline from a local website, from a local station in Olympia, Washington. It's the capital of Washington, by the way, folks. 12 arrested in Olympia after occupying Red Lion Hotel near state capitol. The first sentence is, a homeless activist group forcibly occupied the Red Lion Hotel in Olympia Sunday, forcing employees and guests of the hotel to shelter in place, police said. So they're identifying them as a homeless activist group, not as Antifa.

That's right.

And this is what makes it It's so hard for people to understand the threat from the Antifa is that the media, even when it's, the affiliation is obvious, they won't report it out. But the most common thing is that they don't do any of the digging. So I looked into this organization because it, so-called organization, because they just formed literally days ago. And all the accounts on social media that were amplifying this planned occupation of the Red Lion Hotel were these Antifa accounts within the same networks. And I looked at some of the people who I could identify as being part of calling for people to come, and those who are in the area, and I saw that, well, if you look at who they actually are, these are Antifa extremists. Just rebranding themselves under a new name. And this is what I want people to take away from the book, is that to not get too fixed on what these militant organizations call themselves. It doesn't matter if they call themselves anti-fascist or housing rights advocacy group. If they are preaching for anarchist communism in the name of anti-fascism, Antifascism. That is an Antifa group. And so you look at that, and just to repeat what I said before the break, these extremists allegedly brought in hatchets, knives, and batons and assaulted the Red Lion Hotel staff as they seized it. This is something you would hear happening in Somalia, not America, but it happened in It's not headline news. And we're not learning the true picture about who these extremists actually are.

Will the—

well, the people who invaded this hotel— and I want people to understand two things. One, the terror that people would feel in a hotel with a violent mob attacking. Imagine you're a guest at a hotel, which is sort of a sanctuary. And the other is that there has been no publicity given. We hear about January 6th every day, all day, and this I'd never heard of, and I follow the news for a living. It is just one local state TV station's website that has reported it. Unless I'm wrong, has it been nationally covered?

No, it hasn't. And you bring up this issue, this perception about the threat of the far right is overblown because the legacy press only focus on one side of the extremists and not the other. So people don't know about what Antifa are doing. People don't believe me when I say, "Oh, so what happened on Capitol Hill? So those people did that day in and day out in my city." last year, and worse. They actually came with explosives. They came with power tools to try to cut down the barrier around the federal courthouse so that they could burn it down when the officers were inside there. They didn't believe me. This is what happened. I document this all in the book. This is contemporary far-left domestic terrorism. And it's not like this is unheard of in America. We've had now, going back to centuries many, many organizations and militant revolutionary leftists who have carried out targeted killings, robberies, bombings, et cetera. It's just that the media has now been so saturated by leftists that they obfuscate this history from our collective minds. And history that is playing out as well they don't report. Or they don't report fully.

Your city of Portland had these incredibly violent riots for half a year. Has— I don't know the answer to this, so I'm not— it's not provocative. I simply want to know, has anybody been arrested, tried, and convicted?

Convicted? I know that there there's been maybe literally a handful, like less than 5 out of 1,000 cases who have taken some plea, but their sentences have been things like probation. In terms of somebody sentenced to jail time for their acts of violence extremism, no. And that's this other issue that I document in the book. It's not, it's not just at the extremists are, that there are many of them in Antifa, it's that in some of these political left-wing monocultures like Portland, like Seattle, the public have elected in prosecutors who will absolutely not prosecute left-wing extremists. So as soon as Portland's new district attorney came in last summer at the height of the riots, he announced that it would be his office's policy to not prosecute felony riot charges because he— and he framed it as a matter of free speech. Antifa said that they're fighting for racial justice. So all these acts of extremism are being carried under the banner of things that sound noble: restorative justice, social justice, so on and so forth. I don't care what they call themselves. Themselves. You look at their actions, they are burning down buildings, they're setting fires to buildings with people inside. They're bringing weapons like knives and guns and homemade incendiary devices. They've killed people. They killed somebody in Portland this summer. They hunted down a Trump supporter and shot him point blank before fleeing to Washington State. This is what they're doing. It's terrorism directly in front of us. They're not even hiding it. It's being— lots of it is even being recorded on video. And yet people actually think that this is a good movement of anti-fascists fighting against the far right.

All right, I want to find out. We're going to speak again soon. I want to remind everybody that this, uh, true hero of our time who's now fled this country which make you cry. His book is up at DennisPrager.com. Unmasked.

Numbers matter. And think about the fact that they always tout that the popular vote as opposed to the Electoral College. That's why every vote matters, even if you're in California, like yourself, Victor, in Maryland. Every single vote matters. And this is why you never give up. It's not an excuse, but you're absolutely right from the historical perspective. Politics is cyclical. It truly is cyclical. You know, you get a Reagan because of a Carter. That's absolutely true. You get a Donald Trump because of what? Because of the betrayal of the American people by both sides of the political aisle. So the idea that simply because they managed to do what they did in November, that that's it, we're done? Absolutely not. Think about one thing and one thing alone. How did they treat Donald Trump? When he came down those escalators, and I don't mean just the left, I don't mean the late night talk show hosts, the quote unquote comedians, I mean the right, the establishment. Do you remember? And what happened? He trounced them all. Even after the Billy Bush tape, he was a force of nature. That's the attitude I want to see All Americans, be more like Donald Trump. Never ever give up, because that's what being an American is to me.

So the World Economic Forum is meeting virtually. If you don't know what the World Economic Forum is, the World Economic Forum is a gathering of the richest, most well-connected people on the planet. They usually meet in Davos, Switzerland, which is very hard to get to. And in Davos, Switzerland, a lot of very big globalist ideas are introduced. And so this is talked about sometimes in conservative circles as the Davos agenda or as the kind of globalist agenda. This is their Super Bowl. This is where they do their planning and their announcements. This is where you'll have the Bill Gateses of the world, the Jeff Bezos, Bezos of the world, the heads of state from around the world gather and they basically say, how can we destroy sovereignty of our nations? How can we try and have free flow of people and make ourselves more important?

Sally Pipes is my guest. Sally, do you think it's fair to say that the majority of Americans are really too afraid to have healthcare, uh, take— to have the private sector completely run healthcare. They don't trust the private sector enough to allow the private sector to run healthcare.

They've been propaganda, vile propaganda. They will in many cases become alienated from your values and in many instances alienated from you solely thanks to the lies they're taught about America, about race, about good and evil, etc. There is nothing noble about the educational process any longer. Your child is not uplifted. Your child is just robbed of his or her innocence with things like drag queen story hours and the non-referring to them as boys and girls, which began years ago, lest you impose a gender identity, or no, assume— no, you're not even imposing, you are assuming that your class is only made up of boys and girls. It might be boys and girls and non-binary people. We know how many, uh, non-binaries— even transgender are not binary. They're not non-binary, they're binary. They just, they belong to the other gender. It's fine, that's their prerogative. I don't want them to be able to race against biological females if they're a biological male because I don't believe in cheating, but has nothing to do with the transgender issue. You want your child to hate the United States? Send them to a regular public or private school. It's very often— it's— there's an article, an article will appear about me and that I'm asking people to take their kids out of public school. That's true, but I'm taking— I always add, or private school. The only difference between the average public school and the average private school is the price. Not the propaganda. It's the price. COVID-19 pandemic pushes more parents to go all-in for homeschooling. As parents grow increasingly frustrated with remote learning during the pandemic, some are declining— some are deciding, my apologies, to pull their children out of school and try teaching on their own. In North Carolina, The state's homeschool monitoring website crashed on the first day of enrollment, and more than 18,800 families filed to operate a homeschool from July 1 to January 22, more than double the school year before. In Connecticut, the number of students who left public schools to be homeschooled jumped fivefold this year to 3,500. We need it to be 3,500,000. In Nebraska, the number of homeschooled students jumped 56%. The vast majority of parents are saying, we've been really trying to do what the schools are asking us to do, but we just can't do this anymore, said Jay Allen Weston, executive director of the National Homeschool School Association, which has been fielding inquiries on the topic. So what you should know is, remember there was a Harvard professor who wrote a piece, was it for the New York Times, that homeschooling should be banned in the United States. Remember that? And don't laugh at that because in Germany it is banned. So please understand that anything that threatens the left is liable to be banned. 1-800-PRAGER-776 is the number. And Rob, Seal Beach, California, has been waiting for 4 days. Hi there, Rob.

Hey, hey, Dennis. Listen, all big fans. So help me out with this. I have to tell you, and I've bought your books, I'm a big fan of yours and others on H70, but I gotta tell you, listening to Avi, my head was spinning because if you help me with this, help us with this. If you look at the presidents of the big 4 Ivy League colleges, this seems to be a, I think there's a battle between the conservative observant Jewish Americans and these secular Ivy League Jewish presidents of these Ivy Leagues. Here's my question, and I mean this sincerely. Do these individuals think that someone like me, a Christian, white, conservative, patriotic, populist, Western civilization kind of guy, are we the new pogrom guys?

It seems like that's what they feel about me. Like, well, yeah, you're not in danger of a pogrom. You are in danger of being shut down in your ability to speak. You are the most hated group. What you just— stay on with me because I want to talk to you about this. And, uh, 1-800-PRAGER-776. Got a lot to talk to you folks about. Nerve Renew is the latest product that I'm endorsing, and I actually asked them to do it. By now, many of you know the story. I've had tingling pins, that sort of thing in my feet. It's a genetic thing. There's no injury, just the bone impinges, I believe, on the nerve there. So it was, it was quite bad. And I went to a podiatrist who knew what he was doing. And if that, he gave me inserts, which were tremendously helpful. As soon as I take my shoes off, I'd get the tingling back. Started taking Nerve Renew. And about 9 months to a year later, I discovered I could throw my inserts away for the first time in about 10 years. So I suggest that you give it a try. NerveRenew.com.

Dinesh, we've got a new president now. He's been in office for about 5 or 6 days. What are your thoughts?

He doesn't seem to be very much in control of the situation, but he has been very vigorous in signing a blizzard of executive orders, all of which seem to me thoroughly destructive. The business about climate change, the executive orders on, on oil leasing and fracking. Of course, he suspended the— he got rid of the 1776 Commission. So he's doing all the bad stuff we warned people that he would do. And at some point you've got to ask, isn't this going to have a very bad effect on America? A little part of me wishes that it does, because I think we have to open the eyes of the American people to what moving in a socialist direction means. So yes, I think we I think we're off to a very bad start. It's what we warned about, and we're about to see the fruits of it.

Well, but Dinesh, we're healing. He's reaching out to the other side and urging everybody to heal. I recall when President Trump was campaigning, Dinesh, as you know, one of the big applause lines was, "Lock her up, lock her up." One of the first things he did was to say, "I'm not going to pursue her. She's suffered enough," and he felt he wanted to concentrate on his own agenda. When is Biden going to pick up the phone, Dinesh, and call Schumer and call Pelosi and say, call off the dogs? This is an idiotic trial, and we shouldn't be wasting the American people's time with it.

Well, the very fact that they're pushing ahead with it, I mean, it looks like they may have up to 5 Republican votes, not even necessarily 5 for conviction, 5 just for hearing it. And the other 45 would have thrown it straight out.

You voted yesterday against proceeding with the impeachment trial.

Why?

This is an unprecedented impeachment trial, as you know. Never has it happened before in American history, and there's no clear path forward as in the Constitution or laws themselves. As you know, the Chief Justice is not presiding. The Constitution provides that when the President of the United States is tried in a court of impeachment, the Supreme Court Chief Justice shall preside. So this is kind of like making it up as we go along here, and I have some very serious concerns about the legitimacy of this whole process.

No, Senator Cornyn, I and Judge Littig and Alan Dershowitz and Professor Turley have argued for weeks now it is unconstitutional to try a former official, and it is not something we want to begin to do. There is one contrary example from the 19th century when a former Secretary of War was tried, but I believe many senators changed their mind about jurisdiction thereafter.

Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager and I'm speaking with Rob in California. Rob, when you asked, are you the new pogrom group, I may have misunderstood you. Are you perceived perceived by left-wing Jews as pogromists, or are you the next victims of pogroms? Which did you ask?

No, no, perceived as—

Yeah, okay, I misunderstood you.

Bringing the next pogrom.

That is correct. That is how you are viewed by the whole left and left-wing Jews specifically, because Jews have been so often killed by pogromists. You are regarded as a, as a threat. You Christian heterosexual whites, males, uh, are, are a— the left perceives you, and the Jewish left obviously part of that but has its own history of persecution, and you are the new almost Nazis. That's correct.

That's how it feels.

Well, that is right, and that is what is being taught at colleges. And irrespective of Jews, you are the worst Americans alive. You who built this country and made the freest place on earth, the best place for Jews to live in the history of the Jewish people, just to speak about the Jews for a moment, and I know Jewish history rather well. Taught it on the college level, books on it. Outside of Jews in Israel, the luckiest Jews on earth are American Jews. Jews should be walking around singing the Star-Spangled Banner on a daily basis and waking their kids up to do the Pledge of Allegiance. That's how good America's been to its Jews. And instead, like all leftists, Jew or non-Jew, their kids get degrees in ingratitude. The BA is now a degree in ingratitude. PhD is advanced ingratitude.

Right. How does one say— I say this, I am a pro-Semite. It's like, but these individuals are giving people a bad name, would you not say? I mean, it's like I'm in the position of defending the Dennis Pragers of the world.

Well, it's a very interesting thing with Jews. Jews are disproportionately active on the left, but they're also disproportionately active on the right. If you look at a list of the, among the leading activists, including myself obviously, Ben Shapiro obviously, Commentary Magazine was the most anti-communist magazine in the U.S., published by the American Jewish Committee. It's, you know, one has to be fair to the issue, but left-wing Jews have done spectacular damage. As a Jew, I'm allowed to say it. And it's a painful subject, but it's the way it is. On the other hand, you know, If every Jew left the country and moved to Iceland, the American left would be as powerful as it is today. Nothing would change in that regard. It's sad to say. I mean, look at what the left has done to Christianity. Look at the Pope. Right? You're a good man, my friend. It's an amazing thing. The people— the anti-Americanism of the left is analogous to the anti-Semitism of, uh, in history. People hate people who have succeeded. The Jews succeeded. I don't only mean financially, not at all. The Jews had a more stable family life. The Women had a greater literacy rate. These were constants. And the anti-Semite hated the Jew's success, whether it was the stability of his institutions or his financial success. And I don't mean super rich, just ran a store. Didn't get inebriated as much. Jewish alcoholism rates were very low. So the anti-Semite hated the Jew for this. The anti-American white heterosexual Christian hates what they made. The WASP made a great country, okay? More than the Catholics, more than the Jews, more than any other group, the WASP made a great country. There are a lot of a-hole WASPs too, of course that's true. But the hatred of the white Anglo-Saxon Protestant heterosexual male is a hatred of what he made that is good. If it was a hatred of slavery, every society on earth would be hated because every society on earth had slavery. What is distinctive about America is not slavery. What is distinctive about America is freedom. There isn't, but what I just said has not been uttered at an American school for probably the last quarter of a century, if not more. How many kids have heard what I just said? That's why they don't want us to be heard because it, whoa, that's a shaker-upper, isn't it? Slavery is not unique about America. Freedom is unique about America. Everybody had slaves. Everyone. Black, Muslim, everybody. But almost nobody had freedom. That's American. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. I happen to smoke a pipe, and I probably will put it in. 1-800-PRAGER-776. 877-243-7776. Hey, you want to play that rabbi who sang Ruth Bader Ginsburg? You got that, Sean?

Sally Pipes is my guest. Sally, do you think it's fair to say that the majority of Americans are really too afraid to have healthcare, uh, take— they have the private sector completely run healthcare. They don't trust the private sector enough to allow the private sector to run healthcare. They've been trained to fear the private sector and to embrace government, to the point now where a discussion about unraveling government entanglement in healthcare, we can't even have anymore.

Well, first of all, Larry, we don't have a complete private market in healthcare in this country. As you know, 50% of our healthcare is in the hands of government through Medicare, the program for our seniors, of which covers 65 million, Medicaid, the program for low-income people, for people that covers now 70 million Americans, the CHIP program, the Veterans Administration. So we don't have a private market, but the progressive liberals like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the mainstream media, have just brainwashed the American people to say that the private sector cannot provide the kind of alternatives and different types of plans for people. So people have been completely bamboozled. But it's interesting that, you know, 50— 59% of people polled say they support single-payer, a complete government takeover of healthcare, which Bernie Sanders wants. But when you ask the people, 160 million of them, well, what— which have private insurance in the employer market, if you ask them, well, you're going to have to pay much higher taxes, support goes down to 37%. If you tell them we're going to take away your private coverage and everybody's going to be in a government plan, support goes down to 26%. The problem is People don't understand what it means.

And tell you, the very same people that are complaining about the vaccination rollout are perfectly content to have the government take over everything.

I'm a white Christian heterosexual with 7 children who've been homeschooled and my wife writes history curriculum.

So you're up there. You know what, in the competition, you and the policemen are really running the final lap.

And the program my wife started years ago, like 20 years ago, it teaches people to think critically. So I think— and it teaches people to be obeying, you know, all law and all this stuff. So I, although I'm not a policeman, so you might have the edge on me.

All right. So quickly, tell me why you called.

Oh, well, I just wanted to say, you know, I've listened to you about how homeschooling's gone up. My wife, 20 years ago, she couldn't find curriculum. So somebody said, well, do something about it. So she started writing it, and she's been busier and busier every year. And her— this is her slow time, but it has just continued to grow and grow and grow. And people are just yearning for truth. And because it's focused on history, it— people haven't heard this stuff, and it goes through.

So you mean more and more people are homeschooling? Oh yes, yes, good. That's right, my friends. I know it's, it's a tough thing to accept because it's much more normal and easier. You send your kid off to school, you have the day to do what you need to do, or in many cases, of course, work. But my friends, sending your kid to a school in the United United States today is playing craps with their conscience, their intellect, and their relationship with you. I'm Dennis Prager.
