1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: All right, our two Sean Hannity Show eight hundred and 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: nine for one Sean, you want to be a part 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: of the program. Nobody impresses me more with their knowledge 4 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: of our founders, our framers, our Constitution than the great 5 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: one Mark Levin. He has written numerous bestseller I think 6 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: six seven now number one New York Times bestselling books. 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,920 Speaker 1: Is This is Destined It will be the next number 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: one New York Times bestseller. Maybe his most important book, 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,479 Speaker 1: although Liberty and Tyranny was a phenomenal book. You know, 10 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 1: Mark had written in one of his books that we 11 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: now live in a post constitutional America. When I talk 12 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: about we have a dual justice system, we don't no 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: longer have equal justice, equal application of our laws. Well 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: that's a postconstitutional America. That's not the way the system 15 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 1: was designed. But in his brand new book This is 16 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: Just Out, it's called American Marxism. Mark does a lot 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: of things in this book. He captures and defines the 18 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: moment we are now living in and how frankly dangerous 19 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: it is to this great Republic. I mean, there's no 20 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: doubt that these elections coming up in November twenty twenty two. 21 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: November twenty twenty four. It's kind of do or die. 22 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: I mean, America has got to reverse course. As as 23 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: bad as I knew Biden and the New Green Deal 24 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: radical Socialists would be, I never thought it would be 25 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: this bad. I never thought we would see a president 26 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,919 Speaker 1: this cognitively compromise, all these promises, false promises, false hope 27 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: that will never be fulfilled by New Green Deal socialists. 28 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: We know it's not going to happen. But not only 29 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: does it define the time that we live in, it 30 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: also gives a plan of action. So many of you 31 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: so often ask me, well, what can I do? What Hannity, 32 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: what do we do? And I've given you a three 33 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: point plan. And seventeen states now are actively looking to 34 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: implement election reform. So some of the things that we 35 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: saw all the way back in two thousand in Florida, 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, in Florida twenty twenty around the country can 37 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: never happen again. And first that means you have to 38 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: get in touch with state senators and assemblyment and legislators 39 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: and make sure that we have integrity in our election process, 40 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: confidence in our election results. The next thing is this 41 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: will right itself to failures again of flirting with New 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: Green Deal socialism. The people that failed on law and 43 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: order and destroyed our school system, the ones that promised 44 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: to keep your doctor plan and save money. You know, 45 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: now we're going to hand them over. What guaranteed government daycare, childcare, PreK, 46 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: free college, college, loan forgiveness, guaranteed jobs, guaranteed wages, guaranteed healthcare, 47 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: guaranteed healthy food, guaranteed retirement, guaranteed, guaranteed, guaranteed well, whatever 48 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: manifestation socialism has taken on over the course of history, 49 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: whatever name it's it's used, we see it unfolding in 50 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: Cuba today. It always ends. The results are predictable, it 51 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 1: will fail. These are this is false hope, and these 52 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: are false promises. They'll never be fulfilled. You always end 53 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: up with more poverty. You always end up with, you know, 54 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: whatever degree of freedom you give up in the name 55 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: of false security. And Marcos through all of this guaranteed 56 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 1: to be a number one bestseller. And I'm going to 57 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: keep Mark on for a while today because i really 58 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: want them to go through this book. I have torn 59 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: it apart start to finish. It's a phenomenal book. Mark. 60 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: I love liberty and tyranny. I love Rescuing Sprite and 61 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: all your books, but I've got to be honest, at 62 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: this moment in our history, I think this is defining 63 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: our times, and it also provides a roadmap and an 64 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: antidote and how to resolve what is a predictable decline 65 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: of our great Republic. Welcome back, sir well. I want 66 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: to thank you, Sean, and hear magnificent audience out there. 67 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: And I've been chomping at the bit, you know, for 68 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: three months. I've been discussing this book relatively at a 69 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: surface level, and I wrote this book to try and 70 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: build a movement around some of the things that are 71 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: already happening in this country, like the Tea Party movement, 72 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: or the Reagan movement or the Trump movement, because that's 73 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: what's going to take to claw our way back out 74 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: of the abyss. We're not at the precipice looking in 75 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: the abyss. We're in the abyss, and we need to 76 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: climb our way out. There is a movement that has 77 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: been growing over the last many decades and it's in 78 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 1: front of us. And one of the things I do 79 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: with this book, Sean, is I call it what it is. 80 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: It's an American form of Marxism. And I know the 81 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: media are going to hate it and they will attack me, 82 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: but they don't matter. They are corrupt, they are dishonest, 83 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: and they're part of the problem, and they're carrying the 84 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: ball for these movements. You will never see the movement 85 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: disagree with any single one of these Marxist movements, whether 86 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: it's critical race theory, the degrowth movement dressed up as 87 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: climate change or global warming, the transgender movement which is 88 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: now throughout our elementary schools and so forth, and so on, 89 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: and so the purpose of this book is the number 90 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: one in the first chapter, tell the American people this 91 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: is what it is. You may not want to believe it. 92 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: You may want to turn your head. You may want 93 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: to think this as a fag. You may want to 94 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: think somebody else is going to fix this ain't gonna happen. 95 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: It's here, it's in our face, and it's now. And Mark, 96 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: let me let me stop you here for one second, 97 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: because I know the left. I've been doing this for 98 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: thirty three years on radio, twenty five years as you know, 99 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: on Fox, and we've been best friends for decades now. 100 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: And I know just the name American Marxism is going 101 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: to make liberal heads explode. Medium Mom, people's heads explodes, 102 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: and you very very wisely in the opening chapter it's 103 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: here is what you call the chapter? How many of 104 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: these leftist Marxists authoritarianists we're watching authoritarianism? They use other names. 105 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: They like to call themselves New Green Deal Democrats or 106 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: democratic socialists because they know Americans instinctively or hostile to Marxism. 107 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: You know, Black Lives Matter, and Tea for the squad, whatever, 108 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: environmental justice, etc. Etc. This is important because names and 109 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: definitions matter here. It's absolutely true. One of the things 110 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: I you know, you've said, I've said, But what I 111 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: make the point in the book is we've got to 112 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: stop using their language, stop using their narratives, stop being intimidated. 113 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: What do you mean I'm a Marxist. Look these ideas 114 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: that they have, they didn't just come up with them. 115 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: Constant class warfare you hear from Biden, constant race warfare, 116 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: all this oppressor oppressed bourgeois versus a proletariat, one group 117 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: against the other. This is intentional. This is marx the 118 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: dehumanizing of the individual. They never talk about individualism, They 119 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: talk about communalism. They talk about the government they talk 120 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: about this program, that program. These people. They don't treat 121 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: us as individual human beings, and you can see it 122 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: in their policies, whether it is slaughter every weekend in 123 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: the streets of this country, whether it's open borders with 124 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 1: what's happening on the southern border, both of the people 125 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: coming in or the people who live there. They don't 126 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: give a damn about individual human beings. They are pushing 127 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: a group agenda. They are pushing a transitional agenda. That 128 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: is exactly what they're doing. You have a president of 129 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: the United States, cognitive or not, who you're signing executive 130 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: orders left and right like he is an autocrat in 131 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: one of these regimes, whether it's the private sector destroying kids, girls, sports, 132 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: this critical race theory, and so forth. He doesn't have 133 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: a mandate for any of this. It's fifty fifty in 134 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: the Senate, Pelosi has a four vote lead in the House. 135 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: He in my view, very serious questions raised about this election, 136 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: but all that aside. They have temporary power, and they're 137 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: trying to make it permanent. Whether it's an attack on 138 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: our constitutional system, on the Dream Court, on our legislative process, 139 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: packing the court, packing the Senate, destroying our voting system, 140 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: borders wide open to change the demographics. Their foot is 141 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: down on the pedal. It's not any longer that AOC 142 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: runs the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party has embraced this 143 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: alien ideology that's been imported into this country. And chapter 144 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: after chapter I explain how this happened. I explained who 145 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: is behind it. I use their writings to prove it. 146 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: So when I am ultimately inevitably attacked by the left 147 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: wing surrogates and hacks for these movements, I'll say I'm 148 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 1: quoting this, I'm quoting this, I'm quoting this. In other words, 149 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: the book is bulletproof. The book the footnotes to show 150 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: you know, I'd say it a little bit differently than you, 151 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: but I like the way you do say it. I've 152 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: talked about now for many years. I talked a lot 153 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: about it before the election. How we have institutional institutions, 154 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: major institutions in America failing we the people. And by 155 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: that I mean the meat mob, the big tech mob, 156 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: the teachers unions and other unions, that is their own mob. 157 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: They're all beholden the Democratic Party, and it's group think, 158 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: it's propaganda, indoctrination, universities, corporations, you name it. And you 159 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: go into this in great specificity at the start of 160 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: the book, and I thought you explained it extraordinarily. Well, 161 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 1: well yeah, and you know, let's take let's take a 162 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: little piece of this, because a lot of this is overwhelming. 163 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: And what I do in the book, and you note 164 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: this shot to is I cut it up like salami. 165 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: I take one piece at a time, and I deal 166 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: with it one piece at a time, and I deal 167 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: with it so we're not overwhelmed. So it's not like, 168 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: oh my god, what do we do? So we understand 169 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: it analytically, we understand it historically, we understand it factually 170 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: and contemporarily, and then we do something about it in 171 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: the last chapter, which we can get to it later. 172 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 1: But for instance, the National Education Association, they don't give 173 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: a damn about kids. You saw that during the virus. 174 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: You see that today. The NIA which Landmark Legal Foundation, 175 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: and I and the new president there, Pete Hutchinson, has 176 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: been there thirty forty years. We have fought this organization 177 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: tooth and now this is nothing more than a radical 178 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: left wing appendage of the Democrat Party. Over ninety percent 179 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: of their support goes to Democrats. Why do you think 180 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: they have what they call in service day on election day, 181 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: there's three million of them. Seventy percent of them are 182 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: left wing Democrats. They man the polling systems and so forth. 183 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: This is one of the things we have to address. 184 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: And I do in the end of the book. Where 185 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: does this critical race there we come from? Don't listen 186 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: to people on MSNBC. These are morons, these are these 187 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: are advocates. These are pathetic people who are just there 188 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: to push an agenda. There is a place this comes from. 189 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: There is an individual that comes from. He wrote about it, 190 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: and so I go and I look, you remember what 191 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: Patton said. He defeats Ramel and North Africa. It's a 192 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: massive tank battle, and he says, Ramel, I read your book. Well, 193 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: guess what, I read their book, Sean. I read their books. 194 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: They're overwhelming. They're out there, they're public, they're in our schools, 195 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: they're in our universities and so forth. So it's very 196 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: important to understand. Let's take climate change briefly. What's this 197 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: climate change stuff? How do you go from global cooling 198 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: to global warming to climate change? They're trying to come 199 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: up with new words new nomenclature to disguise what an 200 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: attack on capitalism, an attack on growth, an attack on 201 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: the use of material goods, an attack on creating wealth. 202 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: It is a war on the old industrial revolution that 203 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: created the massive middle class that we have today. That's 204 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: what it is. Now. How do we know that because 205 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: they've written about it. You know, history didn't begin with 206 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: CNN and MSNBC. History didn't begin with AOC and Talleeve 207 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: and Omar. Look at it, and it's not even ancient history. 208 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: Quick break, we'll come back more with the grade One, 209 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: Mark Levin is with us as brand new book out today. 210 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: It's called American Marxism.

Also coming up, final hour, 214 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: free fall, straight ahead. All Right, the great One, I 215 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: call him, Mark Levin with us his brand new book 216 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: out today. I think it's the best book he's written, 217 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: and he's written great ones. It's called American Marxism. Some 218 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: bookstores everywhere, Amazon dot com, Hannity dot Com. You also 219 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: go into an in depth explanation of cancel culture without 220 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: even really meaning to do so. For example, you go 221 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: deeper when you talk about Marxism and its history and 222 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: how it doesn't tolerate competition of ideas or political parties, 223 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: and the Democratic Party and these other institutions as I describe, 224 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, having a their lock step together, indoctrination, propaganda, etc. 225 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: And then anybody with any opposing voice, you know, the efforts, 226 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: the money. I mean, over the many many years we 227 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 1: live with cancel culture and radio I've lived with the 228 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: thirty three years. Anybody and Talk Radio's live with it 229 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: their entire career. Anybody at Foxes live with it, you know, 230 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: twenty five years. And they don't tolerate. They can't even 231 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: stand the idea that there are alternative voices, and there 232 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: are all of these pressure points to silence opposition voices 233 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: because their fanatics, their revolutionaries, they think they are. History 234 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: is to be destroyed. That's what Mark said. That's why 235 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: they're pulling down monuments. That's why they're changing names. That's 236 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: why they're changing movies and cartoons. That is why they 237 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: put out a thousand different names for a thousand different things. 238 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: And you better adhere to it, or you're going to 239 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: be canceled. This is Marx. Marx isn't interested in competition 240 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: of ideas. He's uninterested in free speech, and neither are 241 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: the American Marxists. They are self righteous. They demand conformity 242 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: and uniformity. They impose their will, and so if you 243 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: disagree with them, you must be destroyed. So while we're 244 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: operating in one sphere, which is the First Amendment, free speech, 245 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: and so they're operating in another. Forget about history, They say, 246 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: cares about the First Amendment unless we're expressing it? Who 247 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: cares about protest unless we're protesting? Everybody else has to 248 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: be crushed. And as a matter of fact, you have 249 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: to crush the opposition party. That's what HR one and 250 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: S one's about. You have to control the courts. That's 251 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: what the packing of the courts, and right now, the 252 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: intimidating and a threatening the courts is all about. You 253 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: have to change the population to adhere to your demands. 254 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: That's what the open borders are all about. And I 255 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: explain it, piece by piece by piece in the book 256 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: Let's take a break, we'll come back. Mark's brand new book, 257 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: The Great One, Mark Levin. It's called American Marxism.

It's called Hope and we Choose Liberty. 263 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: And he'll explain on the other side. Eight hundred and 264 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: nine for one, Shawn is our number.

All right, twenty 272 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: five till the top of the hour. Mark Levin, the 273 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: Great One is with Us. His brand new book is 274 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: out today. Is first interview on radio is with Us, 275 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: as first interview on TV was with Us. A great 276 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: show on Friday Night that we had with Mark American 277 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: Martism now in bookstores everywhere, Amazon dot com, Hannity dot Com. 278 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: You might want to get your first run edition now 279 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: while you can. Mark, I want to talk about this. 280 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: You talk about breeding mobs in chapter two, and it's 281 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: a great great chapter. Really captivated my attention in so 282 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: many different ways. Here's my question. These arguments have been 283 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: used many many times in the past that the government 284 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: is going to take away all your fear, all your worries, 285 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: and we're gonna put all our money in a big pot. 286 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: We're gonna and everybody is going to live equally and 287 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: government will guarantee it. But yet there are some that 288 00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: fall for that appeal. Even even with the history of socialism, 289 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: Marxism and its failure whenever it's been attempted, they still 290 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: buy the lie. Why well, I try to describe two 291 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 1: aspects of this. First of all, the activists and the 292 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: leaders and the followers. In some way, they're two different things. 293 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: But I will say this, I saw that same survey 294 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: and it's enormously troubling. That tells you what's going on 295 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: in our schools, universities, and we can't ignore this anymore. 296 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: It tells you why Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden, a 297 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: Democrat party went free college education. These are indoctrination mills. 298 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: It tells you why they never ever regulate colleges and 299 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: universities tuition levels, ever cut their budgets. Where they do 300 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: it to other entities the only two They never do 301 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: it to our colleges, universities and trial lawyers because they're 302 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: in their back pocket. To answer your question, this Marx 303 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: tapped into something that was actually quite brilliant. People want 304 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: to belong and they want to believe. So when we 305 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: talk about things like individual liberty and free markets, for 306 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: some people this is an abstraction. But we talk about 307 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: we as a race, or we as a group of 308 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 1: elderly people, we as a group of young people or 309 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,120 Speaker 1: whatever whatever you you know. The formulation is people go, yeah, yeah, 310 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: that's kind of right. Those guys over there the enemy, 311 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: they're the oppressor. We overhear, we're the victims. Yes, we 312 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: need to do something about this. But here's what people 313 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: need to understand. Marx talked about the rising up of 314 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: the proletariat. What's the proletariat? The working people? We don't 315 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: have that in America. The people are not rising up. 316 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: The middle class is not rising up. These people are 317 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: are bastardizing our constitution and using other aspects of our 318 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: system to try and impose their will on us. And 319 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: that's typical of Marxism in Cuba right now, where the 320 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: people are trying to rise up. The people there didn't 321 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: rise up in nineteen fifty nine and want Castor on communism. 322 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: When you look at the Chinese, the Communist Chinese Revolution, 323 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: that was a revolution also of guerrillas coming out of 324 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: the mountains and so forth, led by Mouth. That wasn't 325 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: a mass uprising. Lennon's uprising was about twenty twenty five 326 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: percent of the population. This is how they operate. They 327 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 1: take over the instrumentalities of society, media, cultural aspects of society, 328 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: the universities. Most of these guys were college graduates or teachers. 329 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: Mao was a teacher, Lennon was a lawyer, Castro was 330 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: a lawyer, and you could go down the list. These 331 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 1: aren't working people rising up to overthrow Because in America, 332 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: why do you think they're going to hate the phrase 333 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: in the media of American Marxism, because I'm calling them 334 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: what they are, these ideas of spreading the wealth and 335 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: class warfare and everything. They didn't come out of the 336 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: brain of Chuck Todd. He's just too damn stupid. They 337 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: didn't come out of the minds of all these people. 338 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: And I tell you where it comes from. Now they 339 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: answer your question. If we don't fix what's going on 340 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: in our colleges and universities, it could become the majority, 341 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,239 Speaker 1: because you cannot survive as a society when you are 342 00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: brainwashing your children and grandchildren or they are. I hate 343 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: this country, and a lot of younger people hate this country. 344 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: And so you may send your kid to college or 345 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: your grandkid to college, and they come out and at 346 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving you're talking to them. They're totally different people because 347 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:16,239 Speaker 1: they're not teaching. They are brainwashing, they are indoctrinating, they 348 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: are pounding, repetition and so forth. And I explain how 349 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: that started in the early nineteen hundreds with John Dewey. 350 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: I won't get into it here, I will I don't 351 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: emphasize something you said, Sean. It is simply not possible, 352 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: even in a three hour radio show, even in one 353 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: week of radio shows, to walk you through this book. 354 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: And my goal is I'm no Thomas Payne, and this 355 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: isn't the American crisis, which was forty seven pages long. 356 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: People quote the first and two paragraphs. It was forty 357 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: seven pages long, but ten percent of the population of 358 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: the colonies of the United States at the time. They're 359 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: two two and a half million people. Two hundred thousand 360 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 1: people read it. If you'll read this book, if you 361 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: will pass it on to your kids and grandkids, if 362 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: you will provide copies or take the one that you've 363 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: read to colleagues and neighbors and so forth, this country 364 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: is worth fighting for. This is more daunting and more 365 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: complex than anything we've done in modern history, because we're 366 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: not fighting a foreign enemy, of which there are plenty. 367 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: We are fighting here domestically, these institutions that they have poisoned, 368 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: and so it becomes very, very complicated, and we have 369 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: to start with speaking the truth and not to be intimidated. 370 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: We need to be proud of who we are, proud 371 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: of our country. We need to embrace all people in 372 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: this country. And one of the things I say in 373 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: the first chapter shown is this, let us put our 374 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: small differences aside, our disputes aside. Whether a moderate Democrat 375 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: or a libertarian or whatever you are. If you love 376 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: this country, it's time to galanize and time to rally. 377 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: We have a common enemy that wants to destroy this country. 378 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: It is the Americanization of Marxism, whether it's critical race theory, 379 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: whether it is so called climate change, whether it is 380 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: open borders, whether it is the attack on buying a 381 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: sexuality and so forth. It's even more than that. We 382 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 1: have got a muster the resolve to confront this, and 383 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: we're not going to be able to do it if 384 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: we're picking scabs with each other. Mark Levin is with us. 385 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,880 Speaker 1: Just released his latest book today. It's in bookstores everywhere. 386 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 1: It's on Hannity dot com, Amazon dot com, bookstores all 387 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: over the country. All right, let me just explain to people, 388 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: and I want to put some emphasis on this, like 389 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: like the great constitutional lawyer. And for those that may 390 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: not know, Mark was the chief of staff for Ed Meese, 391 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 1: the attorney general under President Ronald Reagan. This is not 392 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: your first rodeo. It's a seven chapter book and maybe 393 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: your longest book. It is. But it took me a lot. 394 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: I took my time reading this book, and I did 395 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: it on purpose because I wanted to learn a lot. 396 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: And I did learn a lot. You comprehensively dissect every 397 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: issue that we're now currently facing as a country, and 398 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: all of that needs the thorough exam nation. And like 399 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 1: a great attorney, you lay out the case. Chapter seven, 400 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: your last chapter, which you told me is over ten 401 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: thousand pages. I think is the thousands. I'm sorry, ten 402 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: thousand words is the best chapter in the book. And 403 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: it's called We Choose Liberty. So you lay out the 404 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: case of what we're facing, and then you give people 405 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 1: a roadmap and a call to action. And if we 406 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: rally to the defense of the cause of liberty and 407 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: natural rights, inalienable rights, and that each of us, in 408 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: our own way, I say, we all need to be 409 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: spokes in a wheel will save this great republic. I 410 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,239 Speaker 1: want you to go into that chapter. I don't want 411 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: to run out of time without telling you. I think 412 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: in the last chapter, what I say is it's important 413 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 1: to know our enemy. They're not our adversaries, they're not political, 414 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: they're the enemy. Any military leader will tell you that, 415 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: any great philosopher will tell you that you've got to 416 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: know who your enemy is, their weaknesses and their strengths. 417 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 1: And so this chapter, first I explain why we should 418 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 1: be patriotic, We should revere, our country or founding and 419 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: so forth. And then I get to this, Here are 420 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: some of the important strategies we must use, and I 421 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: lay out scores of them. But I also want people 422 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: to be thinking about them themselves. I say, first of all, 423 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: we ought to steal from the left. We ought to 424 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: steal from the left. They've been doing this a very, 425 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: very long time. I'm not talking about looting, in artson 426 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: and violence. That's them. For instance, Boycott's divestment sanctions the 427 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: BDS movement, which the anti Semites all over the world, 428 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: including in this country, have used against the state of Israel. 429 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: Boycott's involved withdrawing support for corporate media, big tech, other corporations, Hollywood, 430 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: sporting and cultural and academic institutions engage and promoting that 431 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: engage in promoting American Marxism, divestment campaign pressure banks, corporations, 432 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: local and state governments, religious institutions, pension funds, et cetera, 433 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: to withdraw investments and support for these various Marxist movements. 434 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 1: One of the things, Sean, we need to realize is 435 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: we have them numbers, and we have the resources. How 436 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: the hell do people think all these things are funded? 437 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: They're funded by US and sanction campaigns pressure local and 438 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: state governments to end taxpayer subsidies and other forms of 439 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: support for institutions with ties to various Marxist movements. So 440 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: that's sort of an overarching view. American Marxists are litigious. 441 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 1: They file barajas of lawsuits, they form shop, they file 442 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: endless administrative cases, freedom of information cases. We have scores 443 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 1: and scores of legal groups in this country who exist 444 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,679 Speaker 1: for this purpose. It's time that we use them. We 445 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: should use the state foil laws, local foil laws. I'll 446 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: give it a specific example. If you live in a 447 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: particular school district and they're going nuts, like so many are. 448 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: I happen to live in Loudon County, which is ground zero, Well, 449 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: you should file FOI applications for the teachers contracts, for 450 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: all information related to the budgets, for all the books 451 00:25:57,920 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: that are being used. I came up with an idea 452 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: about five weeks ago that's been repeated on our mothership, 453 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 1: the Fox News Channel by a number of hosts. Sean 454 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: and it's important in the American thinker. They talked about 455 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: maybe teachers should wear cameras like cops do, and I said, well, 456 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: I have a better idea. Let's put cameras in every classroom. 457 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: And that's how we found out that they were teaching 458 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: critical race theory during the virus because they were on 459 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: the internet. Okay, so we should push for thy Well, 460 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: that union won't like it. The union is at war 461 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: with us, and we need to be at war with 462 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: the union. As an example, the union has multiple aspects 463 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: to it, and they filed different parts of it with 464 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: the Internal Revenue Service. Well filed complaints against the union. 465 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 1: It is nothing but a political operation and appendage of 466 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party, and we are subsidizing it. And I've 467 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: done this before myself. What else cloward and pivot? There 468 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: are opportunities for us to overwhelm the system. Let me 469 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: give you another example. There are shareholder meetings with these corporations. 470 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: Why is it that only left this show up at 471 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: the shareholder meetings demands. It's time for us and Moss 472 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 1: to show up at shareholder meetings, buy a couple shares 473 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: and make demands of them. I'm just doing a few 474 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: of these off the top of my head. Sean, I 475 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: hope you understand that is important. Now let's look at education. 476 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 1: Let's look at colleges and universities. We have no idea 477 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: how faculty are hired. We have no idea how they 478 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: get tenured. We have no idea how they're rated. We 479 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: don't have a damn idea what they're teaching. We own 480 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: these damn colleges. They're heavily subsidized through our state taxes, 481 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 1: federal grants, and our kids tuition. Well again, use foia, 482 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 1: use litigation. There are groups and we need to find out. 483 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: One of the most prominent things I propose here because 484 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: I look at the communist movement and I look at 485 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 1: the Black Lives Matter movement in the other we need 486 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: to create community committees, patriotic community committees in every county 487 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: in the country. We need the network. We need to 488 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: communicate with each other.

Too many people have fought, bled 530 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: and died to give us this liberty and freedom. Then 531 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: for us to just surrender and give it up. Great one, 532 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: Thank you, great job, American Marxism. Thank you.

Eight nine 540 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: one Sean is our number if you want to be 541 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: a part of the program. Now, we broke a story 542 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: this week on this program and on Hannity about the 543 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: US Olympic Committee and they're redesign as it relates to 544 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: the stars and stripes and you know, and to the 545 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: credit of the US Olympic Paralympic Committee at you know, 546 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: and the US Olympians and Olympian associations, and they were 547 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: asking everyone to fill out an online survey. One of 548 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: the items on the survey is a proposed change to 549 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: the stars and stripes that is used by the USPC materials. 550 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: And we got a hold of this survey and then 551 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: we reached out to them and I don't believe we 552 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: need any changes to our flag. We have one flag 553 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: and you know. And then they responded and they got 554 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: back to us and they said that they are in 555 00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: the early stages. They're these are the design bringinstorming stages. 556 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: A variety of concepts that they're sharing with stakeholders. Quote 557 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: the exact quote was, we're in the very early stages 558 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 1: of potentially exploring new brand executions for the United States 559 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: Olympic and Paralympic Committee, and it's common practice in the 560 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: creative development to share a variety of concepts with stakeholders 561 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,239 Speaker 1: for reaction and feedback that will then be used to 562 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: determine the next steps. What was sent to you is 563 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: just one of dozens of ideas shared in this brainstorming 564 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: and surveying process. Now, my argument is very simple. You know, 565 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: if you're associated in any way with our Olympics and Olympics, 566 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 1: we already have a flag. It's called the United States 567 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: of America, the Stars and Stripes. That should be the 568 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: only flag. You don't need to be wasting your money 569 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: and designing and brainstorming on a new flag and a 570 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: different flag because they had different print outs of athletes 571 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: with a different flag. And my mess to just stop 572 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: wasting your time and money. It's an awful idea. We 573 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: have the Stars and Stripes. That's the flag that represents 574 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: our country, one nation under God, indivisible, and that should 575 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: be used for the Olympics. And Olympics and any associated 576 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: organizations of this and all these great Olympians that make 577 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: us so proud represent the United States, and it's the 578 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: United States of America, and we already have a flag. 579 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: It's not that hard. Then they put out a statement 580 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: after I broke the story that it was just one 581 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: of many concepts. We want to be clear. We love 582 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: our country, we respect the American flag. We do not 583 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,959 Speaker 1: have any intention not to mention authority to change our 584 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: nations our country's flag. But that's not the point. You're 585 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: associated with the Olympics at the highest level, you already 586 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: have the flag. Anyway, This has now made its way 587 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: into Congress, which is getting very interesting. And I have 588 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: a letter in front of me and it's sound by 589 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: a number of Congressmen, and it's it's written to the 590 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,479 Speaker 1: US Olympic Comparalympic Committee. We're concerned about the growing trend 591 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: of American athletes taking advantage of the international platform afforded 592 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 1: by the Olympic Games to perpetuate divisive, hateful, anti American 593 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 1: ideology ideologies. As you're likely aware of social media comments 594 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,800 Speaker 1: made by Chelsea Wolf, who has qualified as an alternate 595 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: to represent the US and the Summer Olympics recently received 596 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: widespread attention. In one post, Wolf claims quote, my goal 597 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: is to win the Olympics so I can burn the 598 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: US flag on the podium. In another comment, Wolf implied 599 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: that President Donald J. Trump should be assassinated. Okay, so 600 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: they asked, respectfully that no kind of political demonstration or 601 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: religious or racial propaganda be permitted in Olympic sites. By 602 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: the way, that is Rule fifty in the Internet National 603 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 1: Olympic Committee's Olympic Charter. Anyway, one of the writers of 604 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 1: this letter, one of the authors of this letter is 605 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: with US now, and that's Congressman Matt Rosendale of Montana. 606 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: Like the Congressman, I'm as outraged as he is, Sir, 607 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: Welcome to the program. Thank you so much for having 608 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: me on. John. Let's first talk about the issue that 609 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: I broke this week and my team broke this week, 610 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: as it relates to the creative design changes to the 611 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:37,760 Speaker 1: American flag. Why would they even waste a second even 612 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 1: suggesting or proposing anything like that, Sean, I don't know. 613 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: I think this all goes along with this emphasis on 614 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 1: trying to promote critical race theory CRT as it's being 615 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: described random nation to try to show our country to 616 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 1: be this terrible, divisive, systemically racist place where no one 617 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: can get ahead unless the government is out there protecting them. 618 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: And I do not accept that premise. I refused to 619 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: accept that premise. I think this is an incredible nation personally. 620 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: I raised and lowered the flag four five years when 621 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: I was in middle school. Every single day I went 622 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: out there, raised the flag, lowered it back down in 623 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: the afternoon. I have an incredible sense of pride. I 624 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: think that it would be nice if we could reflect 625 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:39,280 Speaker 1: back upon the US men's hockey team ice hockey team 626 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty when we had the miracle on ice 627 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 1: and everyone had such a sense of pride and patriotism 628 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: about our nation and our athletes that were competing at 629 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: the US Olympics. And so that is one of the 630 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: reasons why I got together with thirty nine in my colleagues. 631 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to put my nose into the Olympics. 632 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,439 Speaker 1: I don't want to tell them how to run their 633 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: operation there, but I did want to remind them that 634 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: their own rules certainly should govern the way that people 635 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: conduct themselves. And as you stated, Rule fifty clearly outlines 636 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: that no kind of demonstration or political, religious, or racial 637 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: propagandum is permitted in any Olympic sites. Venues are other areas. 638 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: Let us watch sports, let us watch the best that 639 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: our country has supported, that our country has created, and 640 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: let us watch and cheer them on. I don't think 641 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,399 Speaker 1: it's any more complicated than that. So the question is, 642 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: you know what happened. Did you get a response from 643 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: the Olympic Committee. No, we have not received in a response, 644 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 1: and we're monitoring such as activities as what you just 645 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: described and watching very closely to see is it going 646 00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: to require a more of a more action. My next 647 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: staction is to start looking at what kind of benefit 648 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: do they receive from any kind of tax exemption, any 649 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,439 Speaker 1: kind of support from the code that we have put 650 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 1: in place that these athletes are taking advantage of, not 651 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: to mention the franchise, if you will, of the United 652 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 1: States of America to go out there and compete before 653 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: they go and use that to promote themselves. You know, 654 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 1: I find this, You know what happened to the idea? 655 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if you noticed the story that came out. 656 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: I mean, it's, you know, the wokeness of America here. 657 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: But now the report that the upcoming NFL season is 658 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: going to feature quote two national anthems and other social 659 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: justice messaging here, I just thought that, you know, I 660 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: really believed in that Martin Luther King's dream of a 661 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: colorblind society and the idea that where one nation under God, 662 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: an indivisible and that we have one flag and one 663 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: national anthem. But apparently I guess the NFL is going 664 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: full on woke to me. I'm listening and watching, and 665 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,919 Speaker 1: we see sports ratings on television going going down by 666 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: dramatic numbers. I mean, when you look at the NBA Finals, 667 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: it was down thirty three percent. When you look at 668 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball the All Star Game, it was the 669 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 1: lowest number in the history of the sport. It's happening. 670 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 1: Football numbers have been down ever since Kaepernick got on 671 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 1: the scene and started with taking a knee and other 672 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: people staying in the locker room, etcetera, etc. Why don't 673 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: we keep politics out of sports because you have a 674 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: unifying moment where people have a shared passion and that 675 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: is number one the sport, Number two their home team. 676 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if you've had this experienced Congressman. 677 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: I've had it many times where you know, somebody hits 678 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 1: a home run, you're high fiving strangers. Somebody you know 679 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: you're home gets a touchdown, you're high fiving strangers. You're 680 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: sharing beer and popcorn, talking to people you don't know 681 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: what their politics are. Why are we bringing politics into sports? 682 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: People want to get away from the stress of everyday life. 683 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: That's exactly why they brought watch sports. They want the distraction. 684 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 1: They just want to go in there and watch a 685 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 1: healthy competition. You know. One of the one of the 686 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: venues that I've seen that it is starting to pick 687 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 1: back up on support and attendance though, is NASCAR. And 688 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: you know, they have a prayer and the national anthem 689 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: at the beginning of every one of those races shown 690 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,439 Speaker 1: and everybody stands up, they remove their hats and they 691 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: still celebrate patriotism and God and country at a NASCAR race. 692 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: Interesting how they're they're attended to sticking up. Yeah, I 693 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 1: mean there and I don't know if you watch the 694 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: NHL Stanley Cup series, but the New York Islanders fans, 695 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: they just took over the singing of the anthem. The 696 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: same thing happened in Tampa Bay with the Tampa Bay lightning. 697 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: The same thing happened in a walmart I did. I 698 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 1: saw that, And people want to celebrate the greatness of 699 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: our country. We don't want to remove or erase our history. 700 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: We understand that you have to reflect upon it in 701 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: order to continue to make the great strides that we have. 702 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: As you said, Martin Luther King, let's judge people by 703 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: the content of their character, not by the color of 704 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 1: their skin. And we have made tremendous strides and people 705 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: are doing it, and so let's continue to celebrate the 706 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: greatness of our country. We have lifted more people around 707 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: the globe out of poverty and oppression than any country 708 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 1: on Earth, and have asked for nothing in return. And 709 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,800 Speaker 1: let's celebrate it. You know, I can't say it any better. 710 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: And yeah, we've made a lot of progress, thank God. 711 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: And we have a lot more progress to make, but 712 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: we're making that too. And I think most of I 713 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: don't believe most Americans are racist. I believe most Americans 714 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: are good people. And I think most Americans view people 715 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: that are racist racist as ignorant and as constant, you know, 716 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,399 Speaker 1: refrain of the Democrats. Jim Crow two point zero, etc. 717 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden state is far more restrictive voting laws than 718 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: does the state of Georgia. And now we empower the 719 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, we weaponize the DOJ to go after Georgia, 720 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: but not after Joe's state of Delaware, where he never 721 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: lifted a finger to make voting more accessible for the 722 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 1: citizens in Delaware. I mean, it's trying to make voting 723 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: easy and cheating hard. It's a very exactly let's make 724 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 1: voting easy and cheating hard. Well said. Anyway, Congressman, appreciate 725 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: you doing this. Please update us when you hear back 726 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: from them.

Lately, I don't know why 735 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: I'm losing my mind. I'm beginning to hate, you know, 736 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: congested areas more and more these days, just making sure 737 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,399 Speaker 1: you can get three hours a day wherever you are. 738 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:37,800 Speaker 1: This is a Sean Hannity Show now on six hundred 739 00:43:37,880 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: and fifty stations.

You do a 745 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 1: lot of repetition, which helped me to take my notes. 746 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,839 Speaker 1: You know, I get criticized sometimes for that, but there's 747 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 1: a method to my madness because if you say something once, 748 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 1: what's up? I want to tell you something. I want 749 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: to challenge you to do more repetition. On fans singing 750 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 1: the national anthem? Do that all the time. Find a 751 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 1: place in your radio station. You got three hours every 752 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: day somewhere somewhere in there, because no talking is as 753 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: much as what that meant to me. When I heard it, 754 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 1: I wept. How do you sing to the top your 755 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: lungs and weep at the same time when you're singing 756 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 1: the national anthem and I'm now every one of them, 757 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,399 Speaker 1: we're crying their eyes out when they were singing that song. 758 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: So I want to ask you, Sean, if you would 759 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:18,800 Speaker 1: consider playing not just any national anthem, but our national 760 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: anthems with the fans doing the singing from beginning to 761 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: the end, even if you have to take out your 762 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: country song in the very beginning and put that in 763 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: its place. You know, look, i'd tell you what I 764 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: do want to do. And I'm thinking through this as 765 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 1: you are, and I appreciate your input. I really do, 766 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: because I love it gave every time I would watch. 767 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 1: First it was the Islanders, then it was the Tampa 768 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: Bay Lightning. I'd love this to happen in every sport. 769 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 1: I'd love the crowd to take over the singing. You know, 770 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 1: you can get somebody to start it and then somebody 771 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: to you know, to finish it. But it just is, 772 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 1: you know what, and the social justice warriors in sports 773 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 1: they want to hide in the locker room. They want 774 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: to take their go ahead, let the people now have 775 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:06,320 Speaker 1: their say because they're ruining professional sports by adding politics 776 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: to it. And I know, for me, it's alienating me, 777 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 1: it's making me tune out. I'm not boycotting. I'm just 778 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,759 Speaker 1: saying it makes me less interested. I just get disgusted 779 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: and I turn it off. I didn't turn off the 780 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 1: Stanley Cup playoffs this year at all.

This was 824 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: written and sung first by John Denver. John Denver, I 825 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 1: mean he got a bad rap, but I mean he 826 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:40,840 Speaker 1: wrote some really cool songs and very thoughtful songs. I 827 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 1: don't know why. Um, and that was a tragedy. He 828 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: had a plane crash and lost his life. Uh, PAGs, 829 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 1: how are you all your all your friends down in Texas? 830 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 1: They'd split on you. They took off all of my friends. 831 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,440 Speaker 1: And all of these are out of their minds. Man. 832 00:50:57,520 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 1: I actually try to get ahold of the guy Talarico, 833 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 1: this guy James Calorico that was on with Pete Hesset 834 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 1: the other day. He won't come on my show. I 835 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 1: don't know what these people are trying to do. But 836 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:07,880 Speaker 1: when they got on the plane and left, I mean 837 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,280 Speaker 1: they're living in the lap of luxury and that today 838 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 1: I think you probably noticed they're calling themselves victims. It's 839 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 1: all very strange, man. Yeah, they're victims. Why because they 840 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 1: have to do their own laundry. They didn't pack enough 841 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: to stay for a long enough period of time not 842 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: knowing you know, how does state legislators not know what 843 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,440 Speaker 1: the law is. I had Governor Rabbitt on TV this 844 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 1: week and I said, okay, so what's the story when 845 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,279 Speaker 1: they come back to Texas. They get arrested, so well, 846 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 1: not really arrested. They get they get picked up by police, 847 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:41,239 Speaker 1: and then they get free transportation to do their job. 848 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:46,560 Speaker 1: And they've brought into the state capital and they locked 849 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: the doors behind them, and that means they'll get the 850 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,200 Speaker 1: qualm and the vote's going to happen. So there's nothing 851 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,359 Speaker 1: that they can really do under the Texas Law. One 852 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: of the many, many other reasons I like Texas so 853 00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 1: much better than any other liberal state like New York 854 00:51:59,880 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: or California, or any socialist utopia that we have around 855 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 1: the country. I can agree more would load my mind 856 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 1: is they're getting the two hundred and eleven dollars a 857 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,960 Speaker 1: day for DM. They're still getting paid, and these people 858 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: they know what the end game is going to be. 859 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,920 Speaker 1: But here's the Robin another that you've talked about this. 860 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: They're in Washington trying to get this stupid bill passed, 861 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 1: and they're against the filibuster as they physically, Sean are filibustering. 862 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 1: They're filibustering Texas right now, right to end the filibuster. 863 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: Am I am? I losing my mind here? Yeah, you're 864 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 1: losing your mind because it doesn't make any sense. I 865 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: would things like this make any sense? You know, it's amazing. 866 00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 1: So we let me bring people inside our world a 867 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 1: little bit of talk radio, and once a year we 868 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 1: often get together at Michael Harrison's Talker's Convention, which I 869 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 1: try never to miss, and we actually like to kick 870 00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,360 Speaker 1: it off with the Sean Hannity Show Breakfast as we 871 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: as the It's a great seminar for industry people. It's 872 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 1: a very small circle of us, and everybody thinks that, 873 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:01,759 Speaker 1: you know, well, if you're in talk radio, you must 874 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: hate the other person. Donald Trump used to think, well, 875 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,280 Speaker 1: you know, you always say Russia's babe, Ruth and Russian, 876 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 1: and I'm like, don't you want to beat him? I'm 877 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: like no, I said, I want him to be successful 878 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,879 Speaker 1: because we all benefit the more successful he is. Right, 879 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 1: and we'll never be able to replace this guy. I 880 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 1: would say ninety eight percent at least the people in 881 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 1: radio I just love, I mean we have we're all 882 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 1: blessed to do this, and people have the perception that 883 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: we don't like each other. You know, people like you 884 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: and Lars Larson, you know, have huge, huge, you know, 885 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,359 Speaker 1: reach and regional followings that are massive, and the great 886 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:44,799 Speaker 1: one Mark levin Um and I'm you know, Dan Bongino's 887 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: now on. We like Dana Lash. All these people in 888 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 1: radio I'm friends with. You know, you and I have 889 00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:54,319 Speaker 1: been friends for how many years to together. You know, 890 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,759 Speaker 1: we're friends over at Salem like Mike Gallagher and then 891 00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,279 Speaker 1: As Prager and I'm gonna forget names here, but you know, 892 00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 1: there's so many good people in radio. I think that 893 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: people don't realize is that we're not really competing at all. 894 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: In fact, that you always explained it that we're all 895 00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,759 Speaker 1: spokes on a wheel and for your audience, and you 896 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,879 Speaker 1: won't talk about this, so I will. Many many years ago, 897 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,919 Speaker 1: I was doing way too much radio every day, seven 898 00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: hours a day, and I was talking a great story. 899 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,320 Speaker 1: I was I was talking to you like an AOL 900 00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:23,719 Speaker 1: instant messenger or something. I was fixing my car at 901 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 1: the time, and I was like, man, I'm working all 902 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 1: these hours and do all this stuff, and you say, 903 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 1: call me right now, So what are you talking about? 904 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'd never talked to you on the phone. 905 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: We've met and we've been friends. We actually met and 906 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 1: I think it was two thousand and two, so we've 907 00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: known each other almost twenty years. And then you said 908 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:40,839 Speaker 1: call me, and I did, and I say, what's going on? 909 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:43,560 Speaker 1: You said, what's the matter? You said some profanity, and 910 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,319 Speaker 1: then you said, what's the matter with you? Stop it? 911 00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 1: You're going to kill yourself. We need your voice, we 912 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:49,799 Speaker 1: need you strong. What are you doing seven hours a day? 913 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 1: There's something wrong with you? And that was such great 914 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: advice because you could have said, hey, screw this guy, 915 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:56,360 Speaker 1: let him do seven hours a day. This way, I 916 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,399 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about him. You never worried about 917 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 1: me at all. You actually were a guy who wanted 918 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:03,000 Speaker 1: me to succeed and wanted me to prosper because you 919 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 1: knew that it would be better for the audience out there. 920 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 1: We had more voices giving more information, and I listen. 921 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:10,600 Speaker 1: At that moment, I looked at my wife, and I said, 922 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:13,360 Speaker 1: this guy is a diamond, this guy is unbelievable. I 923 00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 1: never expected to get that from you and from that, 924 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 1: and I wasn't being critical. I admire your work ethic, 925 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 1: I really did. But I also know how hard it 926 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 1: is to do this job right. And it is impossible. 927 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 1: It is physically impossible. It's mentally exhausting enough doing three 928 00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:37,160 Speaker 1: or four hour shifts, which most radio hosts doo. It is, 929 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: but that's the max. And believe me. To do what 930 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,440 Speaker 1: I do every day and what you do every day, 931 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: I am like a marine. I get up, I work 932 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:51,399 Speaker 1: out an hour and a half and then I study, study, study, 933 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 1: That's all I do. And then I do my radio 934 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 1: show and I might get some chicken broth bullyall know 935 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: whatever I'm drinking, or how to a hamburger something whatever, 936 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: and then I get right back into it. I'm writing 937 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 1: the monologue for the night and that takes a lot 938 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 1: of time, and and then I try to get to 939 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,360 Speaker 1: sleep as early as possible. It's usually like three am 940 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: because I stay up. And I just knew that there 941 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,040 Speaker 1: was a better business model also out there for you, 942 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 1: and you were too talented not to not to look 943 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 1: at it a little differently, and I just didn't want 944 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 1: you to get burnt out. You're doing seven hours a 945 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 1: crappy radio right now. I did not say it though. 946 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,080 Speaker 1: I did not say that, no way now. I said, 947 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 1: you can't do your best work if you're focused on 948 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 1: seven hours a day and and and you know something, 949 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:43,320 Speaker 1: and your show has has been a massive hit around 950 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 1: the country. Like we love Mark Simona, New York. Mark 951 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 1: Simona is the most My old station in New York 952 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 1: we called the X Wife station. Um, you know, I 953 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: loved everybody, even the people that I hated my guts, 954 00:56:56,080 --> 00:56:59,879 Speaker 1: like Ron Kooby. I like Ron Kooby. We had great people, 955 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 1: Steve Mahlsberg, Curtis Lee was running from mayor. There's a 956 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:06,239 Speaker 1: great group of people there. And there was always a 957 00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:09,280 Speaker 1: little petty in fighting stuff, but nothing that meant anything 958 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,839 Speaker 1: to me. But they're great groups of people. And I 959 00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 1: don't look at my success based on someone else's failure. 960 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: I think a rising tide lifts all boats. And that's 961 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: why you're the success you are, because had you looked 962 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 1: at it that way, you could have told me, you know, 963 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 1: threw you. I'm not going to talk to you. But 964 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: what you actually said was radio. You could have, but 965 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 1: you didn't. And at the end of the day, You're right, 966 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:33,480 Speaker 1: I would not have the success I have now had 967 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,560 Speaker 1: it not been for those few moments of advice from you. 968 00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 1: And I really need that. Well. I still think you 969 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: have a lot more growth in you to be very blunted. 970 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 1: And you know, I know that there's there's something about 971 00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: this I can't explain it. Howard Stern I think did 972 00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,280 Speaker 1: a really good job of showing it in the movie 973 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 1: Private Parts. I don't know if you can relate to 974 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,920 Speaker 1: the movie as much as I do. You know, like 975 00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 1: early in your career, when you try to sound like 976 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 1: a radio guy because you have in your minds in 977 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 1: your mind what a radio guys should sound like. All right, 978 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 1: know a check of www weather hazy, hot, humid, chancel 979 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 1: late afternoon thunderstorms. Right now, it's seventy eight degrees in 980 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,400 Speaker 1: the greatest city in the world, New York City on WWWW. 981 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's ridiculous. And I was like that, you know, 982 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 1: when I start, I was stupid. I mean, but I 983 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 1: do because we didn't know what to do. I mean, 984 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,760 Speaker 1: you have to there's no manual. You've got to learn 985 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,280 Speaker 1: as you go. Man. But the hardest part of what 986 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 1: we do, and I hope people can relate to this, 987 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 1: is sounding like ourselves on the radio. That's the hardest 988 00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 1: thing to do because you're right for the first period 989 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 1: of time, and Howard Turns did show it very well. 990 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 1: We're trying to sound like what we think radio people 991 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 1: sound like. Once we find their own voices, we're good. 992 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: We all do. You know When I would travel the 993 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: country and I drove a lot more than I do now, 994 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 1: and I go on these long drives, I'd always find 995 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 1: local radio stations and then you'd hear that one host 996 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,000 Speaker 1: that is begging, like Alec Baldwin. The tape we play 997 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:05,320 Speaker 1: a hymn which is you know him auditioning, yeah, hello, 998 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 1: call uh yeah, you know what, Let let me. I 999 00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 1: think this is the greatest moment of radio. I got 1000 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 1: to play it again.

We both called in 1004 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:27,800 Speaker 1: at the same time and he walked out of the studio. 1005 00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: He left in the middle of his tryout. He quit, 1006 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 1: Oh and then so unbeknownst to us, he goes to 1007 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:39,360 Speaker 1: Philly and my affiliate in Philadelphia's w PHT, and and 1008 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,160 Speaker 1: this this weird did not edit this.

Sean Hannity Show, 1044 01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 1: eight hundred nine four one, Sean, you want to be 1045 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 1: a part of the program. I know we've been talking 1046 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:11,640 Speaker 1: at length and great specificity about critical race theory. We've 1047 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 1: been we've been playing a lot of the contentious town 1048 01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:18,120 Speaker 1: halls that have been going on around the country over 1049 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: the issue. One of the most amazing things to me is, 1050 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: you know, you always think about sports, or you think 1051 01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:29,320 Speaker 1: about academics, or you think about anything. The fundamentals always 1052 01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 1: have to come first. New York City, for example, spends 1053 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 1: on average twenty seven thousand dollars per student, and in 1054 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: some cases less than six percent of the student body 1055 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 1: is proficient in math and science. There are thirteen public 1056 01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 1: schools in the city of Baltimore where you don't have 1057 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: a single child in any of them that is proficient 1058 01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:56,760 Speaker 1: in math and reading. We are betraying our national treasure 1059 01:02:56,960 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: that would be our children in the process. This is 1060 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 1: a father happens to be African American talking about critical 1061 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:10,400 Speaker 1: race theory. That is teaching his daughter that her mother 1062 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 1: is evil. Listen, critical race theory is teaching that white 1063 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 1: people are bad. That's not true. That would teach my 1064 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:23,439 Speaker 1: daughter that her mother's evil. You already haven't educated within 1065 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: your staff that has pulled my daughter aside and said, well, 1066 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 1: you're a minority, so you know better than to engage 1067 01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:36,920 Speaker 1: in certain things. When I was brought to the school's attention, 1068 01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 1: nothing happened to the educator. Instead, my daughter was brought 1069 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: in and she was ridiculed. So my question is now, 1070 01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: with critical race theory bring brought in? Well is your 1071 01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:54,000 Speaker 1: criteria to educate the educators? And who are you to 1072 01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 1: educate my children or any of our children in life issues? 1073 01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 1: That's our job. Yes, your job to teach a Matthew science, 1074 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 1: our job season about life? Wow? How powerful was hut? 1075 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:11,800 Speaker 1: I mean extraordinarily I'm going to introduce to Joel Pollock's 1076 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 1: friend of the program has been for many years Leo 1077 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 1: two point Terrell in a second. But I want to 1078 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 1: take you back. This is twenty twelve. This is this 1079 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 1: radio program. This is Joel Pollock on this radio program 1080 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:29,760 Speaker 1: discussing critical race theory. Listen, there's a particular setting in 1081 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:31,480 Speaker 1: which all of this happens. I don't know if you 1082 01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:33,640 Speaker 1: want to give people a little taste of what we're 1083 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 1: talking about, well, I'll tell you this. Derek Bell was 1084 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:40,720 Speaker 1: the originator of a school of thought called critical race theory, 1085 01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 1: and he said that the civil rights laws were bad 1086 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:48,640 Speaker 1: for black people because it encouraged black people to believe 1087 01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:51,960 Speaker 1: that there could be racial equality. In his view, the 1088 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 1: entire system, the entire United States of America, was white 1089 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:58,919 Speaker 1: supremacist to its core, and therefore you had to bring 1090 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 1: the entire system down. This is what he taught, this 1091 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 1: is what he wrote, and these are the ideas that 1092 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 1: Obama says on tape are inspiring him and causing everyone 1093 01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:10,960 Speaker 1: to open their minds. This is the man who is 1094 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 1: and was the Jeremiah Right of academia. Wow. Joel Pollock, 1095 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:19,520 Speaker 1: Editor at Large in House Council, Breitbart News, I believe, 1096 01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 1: also a Harvard graduate, author of the new book Neither 1097 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: Free nor Fair the twenty twenty US presidential election. Leo 1098 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 1: two point zero Terrell, Fox News contributors, civil rights attorney, 1099 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,360 Speaker 1: talk show host, also a former teacher by the way himself. 1100 01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:38,959 Speaker 1: Welcome both of you back to the program. I want 1101 01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 1: to dig a little bit deep deeper because, honestly, Joel, 1102 01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:49,400 Speaker 1: you know this better than anybody. What the foundation the 1103 01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 1: foundational teachings of critical race theory and how it categorizes 1104 01:05:55,520 --> 01:06:02,560 Speaker 1: groups of peoples as oppressors and oppressed identity politics on steroids. 1105 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:07,640 Speaker 1: All of America's institutions are designed to maintain white supremacy 1106 01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 1: talk about its history. So just to help educate everybody, 1107 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 1: including me, Well, first I have to thank you Sean 1108 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:19,280 Speaker 1: for paying attention to this issue nine years ago. You 1109 01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:22,720 Speaker 1: were ahead of the curve. And many in the media 1110 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,480 Speaker 1: try to dismiss critical race theory when we brought it 1111 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:27,560 Speaker 1: up back then in the same way they're doing now. 1112 01:06:27,600 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 1: They said, oh, it's no big deal, it's nothing race law, politics, 1113 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 1: you should just accept that all of this is intertwined. 1114 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 1: Why are you so upset about it? And they try 1115 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 1: to bury it, and of course now it's come back 1116 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:42,440 Speaker 1: with a vengeance when the White House says, as Jen 1117 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 1: Pazaki said today, that we have systemic racism in our 1118 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 1: society that is responsible for inequalities today, what she's doing 1119 01:06:53,080 --> 01:07:00,240 Speaker 1: is applying a Marxist idea to race, and the idea 1120 01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:04,000 Speaker 1: is that just as Marxists believe class is the structure 1121 01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 1: of society, critical race theorists believe that race is the 1122 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:10,439 Speaker 1: structure of society, and that our society is racist because 1123 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 1: our institutions were created with racism in mind, in fact, 1124 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:18,800 Speaker 1: with racism as they're founding principle in the eighteenth century. 1125 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:22,160 Speaker 1: And the problem that critical race theory has with things 1126 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:25,200 Speaker 1: like the Civil War and the civil rights movement is 1127 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:28,680 Speaker 1: that they say these things create the illusion of legal equality. 1128 01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:31,240 Speaker 1: We only think that we have equality before the law, 1129 01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:34,800 Speaker 1: but in fact our system of property itself is racist 1130 01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,600 Speaker 1: because it's predicated on the idea that black people could 1131 01:07:38,640 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 1: be owned as property. We still haven't gotten rid of 1132 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 1: that idea from within our notion of property somehow, and 1133 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 1: so the only solution is radical redistribution of wealth and 1134 01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:52,200 Speaker 1: property and opportunity. And that's what critical race theory is about. 1135 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 1: And it's a driving ideology in this administration. And parents 1136 01:07:56,720 --> 01:07:58,760 Speaker 1: around the country are starting to stand up against it 1137 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:02,240 Speaker 1: because they're realizing it in their kids school curriculums, it's 1138 01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:06,439 Speaker 1: in their workplaces. It's these big private defense contractors making 1139 01:08:06,440 --> 01:08:09,680 Speaker 1: their employees go through classes on white privilege. It's really 1140 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:14,200 Speaker 1: corrosive to an open, civil, democratic society. You know Leo 1141 01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 1: two point on too. When I think back and all 1142 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:21,080 Speaker 1: the deep dives that we were involved in in vetting 1143 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:24,840 Speaker 1: Barack Obama, you know, what is a community organizer? Let's 1144 01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:30,640 Speaker 1: get let's do a deeper dive into acorn. What is 1145 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 1: black liberation theology that's so inspired Barack Obama? Not only 1146 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:39,920 Speaker 1: to attend the church of Reverend Right, but also, you know, 1147 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:43,599 Speaker 1: write a book about a lot of this and getting 1148 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:48,200 Speaker 1: to the root cause again, radicalism, Matt Marxist socialism at 1149 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:51,280 Speaker 1: the core of it, and now it's taken center stage 1150 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 1: on a level that I don't think anybody ever anticipated 1151 01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:57,760 Speaker 1: many of the radical ideas of Obama now are. I 1152 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:01,440 Speaker 1: guess the Democratic Parties is haught up to his radicalism 1153 01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:03,720 Speaker 1: in some ways that nobody wanted to pay attention to. 1154 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,360 Speaker 1: First of all, let me I'll answer your question, but 1155 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:08,880 Speaker 1: I want to say that tape of nine years ago 1156 01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,360 Speaker 1: is amazing, and my hat's off to you and Joe 1157 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:15,920 Speaker 1: regarding that tape in which he announced the critical race theory. 1158 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:19,880 Speaker 1: The critical race theory whole concept is a conclusion without 1159 01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:22,360 Speaker 1: supporting facts. When I was listening to that, when you 1160 01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:25,639 Speaker 1: talk about the whole civil rights movement, there's a voting 1161 01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 1: rights fact, it's an illusion, that's a conclusion without facts. 1162 01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:33,000 Speaker 1: When you talk about the Civil War and those who 1163 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:35,759 Speaker 1: fought for the Civil War, it's a conclusion without facts 1164 01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:38,679 Speaker 1: because they basically are saying that even though you see 1165 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:42,840 Speaker 1: all this progress, it's an illusion, conclusion without facts. When 1166 01:09:42,840 --> 01:09:46,519 Speaker 1: you focus on Barack Obama. I mean, think about this. 1167 01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 1: Here's a man who won his first primary. His cauc 1168 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 1: is in Iowa ninety percent white. How do they justify 1169 01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:57,960 Speaker 1: the twice elected black man in the White House. How 1170 01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 1: does critical race theory address that issue? Basically, critical race 1171 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:06,639 Speaker 1: theory basically concluded that doctor King was not a fraud 1172 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 1: but was misguided. It's a theory that has gained steam, 1173 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:15,120 Speaker 1: fortunately with an extreme left its viewpoint, because Sean Hugh 1174 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 1: and Joe know that mainste America rejects critical race theory. 1175 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:21,720 Speaker 1: We all rejected and they have the audacity to think 1176 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,160 Speaker 1: that they're speaking for people of color. They do not. 1177 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:29,280 Speaker 1: They speak for a very fringe radical group that is 1178 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 1: trying to hijack our system. And I'll tell you right now, 1179 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:35,719 Speaker 1: it has my opinion, it will it will always be here, 1180 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,519 Speaker 1: but it will not gain the type of steam that 1181 01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 1: they envision because the majority of America, and I say 1182 01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 1: the supermajority of America rejects it. The Britannica offers Joel 1183 01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 1: this definition of critical race theory, the view that the 1184 01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:53,640 Speaker 1: law and legal institutions are inherently racist, and that race itself, 1185 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:58,920 Speaker 1: instead of being biologically grounded and natural, is socially constructed, 1186 01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:02,840 Speaker 1: a socially construct to concept that is used by white 1187 01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 1: people to further their economic and political interests at the 1188 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:10,679 Speaker 1: expense of people of color. And according to CRT, racial 1189 01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:15,719 Speaker 1: inequality emerges from the social economic, legal differences that white 1190 01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:19,519 Speaker 1: people create between races to maintain elite white interest in 1191 01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:24,720 Speaker 1: labor markets politics, given giving rise to poverty criminality in 1192 01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:30,440 Speaker 1: many minority communities. Time Magazine they talked about the origins 1193 01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 1: of critical Race Theory and how you know the movement 1194 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,880 Speaker 1: really came into being at a nineteen eighty nine workshop 1195 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 1: led by Crenshaw and these other people at Saint Benedict's 1196 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:46,200 Speaker 1: and Madison, Wisconsin. But the in the seventies a group 1197 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,519 Speaker 1: of legal scholars activists developed the theory, building on the 1198 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:53,679 Speaker 1: work of movements like critical Legal Theory, Radical feminism, etc. 1199 01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a long history. The Heritage Foundation says, Yeah, 1200 01:11:57,400 --> 01:12:00,840 Speaker 1: this ideology that whiteness is oppression and that all its 1201 01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:05,640 Speaker 1: manifestations are and hard work is the key to success, 1202 01:12:05,760 --> 01:12:09,719 Speaker 1: must be stamped out. I mean that's so fairly accurate 1203 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 1: in your view. Well, when I see people like Jen Pisaki, 1204 01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,280 Speaker 1: who is the Press secretary, even though she didn't do 1205 01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:19,719 Speaker 1: anything during the campaign. That job actually belongs to Simone Sanders, 1206 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:23,000 Speaker 1: the African American woman who trudged through the snow in 1207 01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:26,640 Speaker 1: high heels in Iowa when everybody was jumping ship and 1208 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:29,360 Speaker 1: abandoning Joe Biden. I'm not sure why Jen Pisaki got 1209 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:33,160 Speaker 1: the job, but people at that level elite love critical 1210 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 1: race theory because it makes white supremacy the problem, and 1211 01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:40,600 Speaker 1: it makes white privilege the issue that has to be unraveled. 1212 01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,519 Speaker 1: The only people who can unravel white privilege are white 1213 01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:48,240 Speaker 1: people themselves. That's why you see elite white kids out 1214 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 1: in the street rioting. That's why you see Jen Pisaki 1215 01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:53,240 Speaker 1: talking about systemic racism. You know she's not going to 1216 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 1: give up her job for Simone Sanders anytime soon. But 1217 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 1: they love it because it makes them central. They can 1218 01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:01,639 Speaker 1: be the leaders of this new civil rights movement. They 1219 01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:05,160 Speaker 1: are important because it's only they who can renounce white privilege. 1220 01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:09,000 Speaker 1: And so ironically, it makes elite white people who want 1221 01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:11,040 Speaker 1: to be told how wonderful they are instead of just 1222 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 1: getting down to the business of being American and doing 1223 01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:16,759 Speaker 1: a day's work. It makes them so important. So critical 1224 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 1: race theory actually flatters the elite. And if you listen 1225 01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:24,599 Speaker 1: to Ibrahm Kandy, who's one of the main authors out 1226 01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:29,439 Speaker 1: there promoting critical race theory today he assuages groups that 1227 01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:31,600 Speaker 1: pay him tens of thousands of dollars to speak, and 1228 01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:35,479 Speaker 1: he says, racism isn't a personal problem. People aren't racist. 1229 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:38,479 Speaker 1: It's the system that's racist. It's the policies that are racist. 1230 01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:40,800 Speaker 1: And I can absolve you of that racism. I can 1231 01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 1: call you anti racist allies if you just support the 1232 01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:47,320 Speaker 1: right party, if you just vote the right way and 1233 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 1: put the right policies in place. So that's the deal. 1234 01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:54,280 Speaker 1: It's an elite deal. The elites are embracing critical race 1235 01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:57,559 Speaker 1: theory because it allows them to maintain their power. Quick 1236 01:13:57,600 --> 01:14:00,639 Speaker 1: break more on the other side on credit race theory. 1237 01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:03,160 Speaker 1: Joel Pollock LEO two point zero, Terrell will get to 1238 01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:06,120 Speaker 1: your calls eight hundred and nine four one, Sean, you 1239 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:08,000 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. Right as 1240 01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,320 Speaker 1: we continue, Joe Pollock is with us LEO two point 1241 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:13,519 Speaker 1: o Toorello's with us. Let me now play. This is 1242 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:17,639 Speaker 1: Jen Saki earlier today confirming that Joe Biden supports it. 1243 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:20,679 Speaker 1: Now this is the same Joe Biden and I'll throw 1244 01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:22,559 Speaker 1: this to Leo on the other side of this, that 1245 01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:25,120 Speaker 1: partnered with the guy that Philip Bus to the Civil 1246 01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,400 Speaker 1: Rights Act and Voting Rights Act, that was a former 1247 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:30,560 Speaker 1: clansman to stop the integration of schools and school busings 1248 01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:34,240 Speaker 1: saying he didn't want schools to become racial jungles. That 1249 01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,120 Speaker 1: would be Joe Biden who gets a pass. But this 1250 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:40,120 Speaker 1: is Jen Saki speaking for the president. Delegates to the 1251 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,760 Speaker 1: National Education Association that they proved to measure last week 1252 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:46,520 Speaker 1: calling for support or quote de plesentation a culturally responsive 1253 01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:49,479 Speaker 1: education crickle race theory, and I think says curricula on 1254 01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 1: the pre cage or twelve and a higher education president 1255 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 1: is obviously the kan of education. First lady, as a teacher, 1256 01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,960 Speaker 1: she's the union teacher. I'm wondering what are the president's 1257 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 1: thoughts on anti racism curriculum in the classroom. Well, the 1258 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 1: President believes that in our history there are many dark moments, 1259 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:11,719 Speaker 1: and there is not just slavery and racism in our history. 1260 01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 1: There are systemic racism that is still impacting society today. 1261 01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:18,439 Speaker 1: And he believes, as I believe as a parent of children, 1262 01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:21,920 Speaker 1: that kids should learn about our history. So as the 1263 01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:25,040 Speaker 1: spouse of an educator, and as somebody who has continues 1264 01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:28,479 Speaker 1: to believe that children should learn not just the good 1265 01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:31,160 Speaker 1: but also the challenging in our history. And that's part 1266 01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 1: of what we're talking about here, even as it's become 1267 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:38,360 Speaker 1: politically charged. Thank you answer that, Leo, through the prism 1268 01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:42,320 Speaker 1: of Joe's history on racial issues, especially as partnering with 1269 01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:45,360 Speaker 1: the former Klansmen. Well, first of all, you have to 1270 01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:49,559 Speaker 1: remember that Joe Biden of today is probably heavy everything 1271 01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:53,280 Speaker 1: spoon fed to him, and basically his position is the 1272 01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 1: position of the extreme socialism. Joe Biden, did we know 1273 01:15:57,040 --> 01:16:00,840 Speaker 1: of the day is the Joe Biden who for forty 1274 01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:06,560 Speaker 1: years embrace racial segregation, embrace Robert k kk bird. This 1275 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:11,759 Speaker 1: is a guy who call mixing or integrating the community 1276 01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:14,800 Speaker 1: racial jungle. So I don't think you're really hearing from 1277 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:17,639 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. I think you're hearing from a progressive left 1278 01:16:17,680 --> 01:16:19,720 Speaker 1: wing who have hijacked the White House. But I want 1279 01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:21,240 Speaker 1: to say this very clear, because I said it on 1280 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:24,920 Speaker 1: your TV show and radio show a hundred thousand times. 1281 01:16:25,280 --> 01:16:29,560 Speaker 1: There is no systemic racism in this country. That is 1282 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 1: a term that they keep throwing out every day. It 1283 01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,840 Speaker 1: is I ask anyone listening to this program to day, 1284 01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:39,600 Speaker 1: I identify the department, identify that the head of this 1285 01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 1: department where there's implementing systemic racism. That's a nineteen fifty, 1286 01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:47,800 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty term. It's been eliminated since the Voting Right Fact, 1287 01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:50,680 Speaker 1: Civil Rights Facts, Fairhousing Act. They use this as a 1288 01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:54,360 Speaker 1: race card division. Final point. The thing that makes it 1289 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:57,080 Speaker 1: so embarrassing is that you hear this term of systemic 1290 01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 1: racism articulated in democratic cities in Chicago, in LA in Baltimore, 1291 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:06,880 Speaker 1: where you have people of color controlling the system. So 1292 01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: it's a big fat lie and it's constantly being played upon. 1293 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:13,720 Speaker 1: The White House is using it today. All Right, I 1294 01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,280 Speaker 1: gotta thank you both. Joe Polla, great to have you back. 1295 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 1: You were way ahead of the curve. I can't believe 1296 01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:21,000 Speaker 1: it was so long ago we were talking about it, 1297 01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:24,240 Speaker 1: but here we are again, and now it's even worse. Joel, 1298 01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:27,559 Speaker 1: thank you, Leo two pointz Terrell, thank you. Quick break 1299 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 1: right back when we come back. More of the best 1300 01:17:31,400 --> 01:17:33,880 Speaker 1: of the Sean Hannity Show. Stay tuned at twenty five 1301 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:35,720 Speaker 1: to the top of the hour eight hundred and nine 1302 01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:37,360 Speaker 1: four one. Sean. If you want to be a part 1303 01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:39,360 Speaker 1: of the program. I mean, the voting in New York 1304 01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:44,160 Speaker 1: City was an unmitigated disaster. The Board of Elections in 1305 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:47,960 Speaker 1: New York they actually counted at one point one hundred 1306 01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:53,200 Speaker 1: and thirty four thousand votes that they were using to 1307 01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 1: practice getting the vote tallies prior to the election. Now 1308 01:17:59,880 --> 01:18:02,720 Speaker 1: is about an eight thousand vote margin and it has 1309 01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:08,760 Speaker 1: as the Democrat winning Eric Adams, he ran on law 1310 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:11,599 Speaker 1: and order. I'm not really sure that he's the guy 1311 01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:15,439 Speaker 1: that's going to get that job done. Because New York City, 1312 01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:18,400 Speaker 1: we now know a billion dollars cut to the NYPD. 1313 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:22,479 Speaker 1: No bail laws in New York. Criminals basically go in, 1314 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,080 Speaker 1: you can rob a bank, get out because there's no bail, 1315 01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:30,200 Speaker 1: rob another one, get brought back to the precinct, get 1316 01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 1: let out, no bell, and rob a third bank. You 1317 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 1: can do that all in one day anyway. Curtis Leewa 1318 01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:39,680 Speaker 1: is the Republican candidate for mayor in the City of 1319 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,280 Speaker 1: New York. Friend of the program for many years, we 1320 01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:44,560 Speaker 1: worked together a long time. He's been the leader of 1321 01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 1: the Guardian Angels for decades. I've seen this guy more 1322 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 1: often every time I used to ride the subway and 1323 01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:52,519 Speaker 1: I haven't been riding it in recent years, but when 1324 01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:55,160 Speaker 1: I did, I'd see him. It didn't matter what time 1325 01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:56,720 Speaker 1: of day or night it was. I would run into 1326 01:18:56,800 --> 01:19:00,439 Speaker 1: Curtis or run into the Guardian Angels. And when messengers 1327 01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 1: on the subways would see Guardian Angels that were there, 1328 01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:06,760 Speaker 1: they felt better because they don't feel protected in the 1329 01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:09,599 Speaker 1: subways in New York. And now it's even worse than ever. 1330 01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:13,720 Speaker 1: You see the videos people being attacked, you know, kolcock 1331 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,600 Speaker 1: from behind, or even old women in the streets of 1332 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:19,400 Speaker 1: New York and broad daylight. We see what's going on 1333 01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:22,320 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. You know, people, Oh you can as 1334 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 1: long as you don't steal a thousand dollars, We're not 1335 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 1: going to prosecute you. You know, we have all the 1336 01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:31,120 Speaker 1: people involved in the rioting from last summer, those throwing 1337 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:34,880 Speaker 1: bricks and rocks and bottles and frozen water bottles and 1338 01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:37,960 Speaker 1: Molotov cocktails of police, and none of them are going 1339 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,000 Speaker 1: to go to jail, even though we've got incontrovertible evidence. 1340 01:19:41,479 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 1: We got their videos of them doing these committing these crimes, 1341 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:49,719 Speaker 1: and burning down a police precinct in the process. Anyway, 1342 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:53,679 Speaker 1: Curtis's motto for this campaign so far, and we support 1343 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:59,800 Speaker 1: as candidacy is refund the police. Great idea, Curtis Leewa, 1344 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:05,799 Speaker 1: my friend, welcome back, well my brother and solidarity. Sean Hannity. 1345 01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:08,559 Speaker 1: I remember those days when you were fucking me writing 1346 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 1: the subways and Sean, I'm the only mayoral candidate who's 1347 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:15,280 Speaker 1: writing the subwaich morning doon tonight. Because as you know, 1348 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:19,000 Speaker 1: that's how you meet millions of potential voters who would 1349 01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 1: never have access to anyone running for office. Nobody's gonna 1350 01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,920 Speaker 1: outwork you. I know you well enough to know that 1351 01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:28,799 Speaker 1: that's the case. Nobody will outwork you in this. Here's 1352 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:33,200 Speaker 1: the problem. And I love that you're running. I've told 1353 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:36,479 Speaker 1: you on primary day, I had no worries that you were. 1354 01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:39,120 Speaker 1: I knew you were going to run away with the primary. 1355 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:42,479 Speaker 1: I told you that day. And now the challenge is 1356 01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:47,520 Speaker 1: this New York City is a city full of Democrats, 1357 01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:53,479 Speaker 1: liberal radical AOC democrats. Now there's a model that you 1358 01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:56,479 Speaker 1: are running on that you would follow, and that is 1359 01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:58,800 Speaker 1: the one that saved lives when we were at nearly 1360 01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:02,640 Speaker 1: three thousand murders a year, Rudy Giuliani was elected to 1361 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 1: clean it up. And lo and behold, the number was 1362 01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 1: driven down about three hundred, even less than three hundred 1363 01:21:09,360 --> 01:21:13,720 Speaker 1: in years that followed. And so we know how to 1364 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,800 Speaker 1: do this. But the media almost wants to annoint Eric 1365 01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 1: Adams and ignore you, and that really pisses me off, 1366 01:21:23,479 --> 01:21:27,520 Speaker 1: as it should John, because they basically they want a coronation. 1367 01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:31,879 Speaker 1: Let's look at this past week. Comrade Bill de Blasio, 1368 01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:34,360 Speaker 1: the part time mayor, the joe from part Slope who 1369 01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:37,840 Speaker 1: sent a drug induce side coaches, was offered millions of 1370 01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:42,080 Speaker 1: dollars by President Joe Biden, and the President said this 1371 01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:46,040 Speaker 1: mayor and other mayors in blue states, in urban areas 1372 01:21:46,200 --> 01:21:49,360 Speaker 1: that are afflicted with crime, you can use the money 1373 01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 1: to go out and hire police. Go out, hire police. 1374 01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:56,000 Speaker 1: Bill de Blasio twice refused to accept the money to 1375 01:21:56,160 --> 01:22:00,200 Speaker 1: hire police. Just yesterday and to evilize, Cuomo declare a 1376 01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:03,840 Speaker 1: state of emergency, claiming gun violence is now the number 1377 01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:07,559 Speaker 1: one problem, no longer the pandemic. It's been all over 1378 01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:13,720 Speaker 1: the newspapers. It is undeniable. It's so bad that when 1379 01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 1: you look at the recent numbers, more people are dying 1380 01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:22,200 Speaker 1: of gun violence than of COVID. People are dying every 1381 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:26,759 Speaker 1: day out there time is not on our side. Begin 1382 01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:31,800 Speaker 1: by acknowledging the problem. And you know what the problem is. 1383 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 1: It is a statewide problem, and it is an emergency. 1384 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,320 Speaker 1: And I want the people of the state to understand that, 1385 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 1: and I want them to respond to the emergency for 1386 01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:48,360 Speaker 1: the way it is. So today first state in the 1387 01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:53,799 Speaker 1: nation is going to declare a disaster emergency on gun violence. 1388 01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,719 Speaker 1: He had seven points, and he never once mentioned hiring 1389 01:22:57,840 --> 01:23:01,479 Speaker 1: more police. Now, Sean, these are haters, and they are 1390 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:04,760 Speaker 1: so fearful of the number one cop hater, aoc all 1391 01:23:04,800 --> 01:23:09,840 Speaker 1: out crazy alexand Viriocacio Cortes and her acolytes that they 1392 01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:13,280 Speaker 1: are afraid to take her on. And the Democratic Socialists 1393 01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:16,240 Speaker 1: of America and the Justice Glauriors who want to defund 1394 01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:20,000 Speaker 1: the police by even three million dollars more, closed the prisons. 1395 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:23,040 Speaker 1: Have everyone not paid rent so the land was free. 1396 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,759 Speaker 1: They want everyone moving south to the Mason Dixon lines 1397 01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 1: to turn the red states purple. Meantime, this state and 1398 01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:34,560 Speaker 1: this city becomes solidly blue, but a Democrats Socialists of 1399 01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:37,640 Speaker 1: America blue. It's all a part of this plan. And 1400 01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to stand and fight for what is what 1401 01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:42,320 Speaker 1: I know is right. Sean you'd seen me do that before, 1402 01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:45,040 Speaker 1: and I'm going to take on AOC and the Democrat 1403 01:23:45,160 --> 01:23:47,880 Speaker 1: Socialists of America every step of the way. Eric Adams 1404 01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:52,799 Speaker 1: would never do that. He will not conflict with members 1405 01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:55,760 Speaker 1: of his own party. I don't see that he would 1406 01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:58,840 Speaker 1: govern any differently. And you're right, when did he ever 1407 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 1: say he'd refund the police replaced the one billion dollars. 1408 01:24:01,920 --> 01:24:04,600 Speaker 1: Has he ever said it in the course of the campaign. No. 1409 01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:07,880 Speaker 1: And probably the worst thing is he has been the 1410 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 1: leader in the effort, not just here but all over 1411 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:14,240 Speaker 1: the country. It affects your entire audience of law enforcement 1412 01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:18,559 Speaker 1: men and women. He wants qualified immunity removed from men. 1413 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:21,960 Speaker 1: So that means every day, what's insanity on the right, 1414 01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:24,000 Speaker 1: They put on their bulletproof vest and go out and 1415 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:27,160 Speaker 1: risk their lives for us. They are culpable for any 1416 01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:30,679 Speaker 1: action they take. They will have to defend themselves. They'll 1417 01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:32,720 Speaker 1: have to get their own lawyers, They'll have to get 1418 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:37,679 Speaker 1: their own personal police malpractice insurance policy, which means they're 1419 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:41,040 Speaker 1: going to continue to be reactive, not proactive. As mayor. 1420 01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:44,280 Speaker 1: I am going to say, no, qualified immunity is returned 1421 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:48,000 Speaker 1: to you. All elected officials have it judges prosecute his 1422 01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 1: civil servants. We cannot continue to vilify the police. Do 1423 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:56,320 Speaker 1: you know today we honored the essential workers today up 1424 01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:59,840 Speaker 1: the canyon of heroes. I did not see a great 1425 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:03,600 Speaker 1: round of applause for the police, who before the lockdown 1426 01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:07,400 Speaker 1: were surely heroes. Then they were turned into zero's last summer, 1427 01:25:07,680 --> 01:25:09,880 Speaker 1: and they've not been elevated back and put on the 1428 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:13,840 Speaker 1: pedestal they rightfully deserve. When I'm mayor first day, I'm 1429 01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:16,720 Speaker 1: shaking the hand of every police officer I can in 1430 01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:19,799 Speaker 1: every precinct in New York City, building up their morale 1431 01:25:19,920 --> 01:25:23,760 Speaker 1: and taking the handcuffs off the police and putting it 1432 01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 1: onto the criminals, and then battling Cuomo in Albany and 1433 01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:30,120 Speaker 1: saying they needs to be bail and these these criminals, 1434 01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:34,439 Speaker 1: these predicate felons, need to be remanded into jail. Let 1435 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:37,560 Speaker 1: me let me put some emphasis, add emphasis to what 1436 01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:40,320 Speaker 1: you just said about qualified immunity. Let me explain what 1437 01:25:40,479 --> 01:25:44,840 Speaker 1: this so people really fully completely understand it. In every 1438 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:51,080 Speaker 1: case police officers, if they get sued, the city, the town, 1439 01:25:51,200 --> 01:25:55,679 Speaker 1: the municipality backs them up, hires their lawyers. They get 1440 01:25:55,760 --> 01:26:00,679 Speaker 1: a defense. If you if you create an area where 1441 01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 1: cops have to get their own insurance and they have 1442 01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:08,000 Speaker 1: to pay that out of pocket, and they're no longer 1443 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:12,000 Speaker 1: indemnified by the cities that they serve. That means any 1444 01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:16,760 Speaker 1: criminal ever arrested will sue that cop, and it will 1445 01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:22,600 Speaker 1: policing will then become impossible, and defund will be meaningless. 1446 01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:26,800 Speaker 1: That will dismantle every police department in the country. Now 1447 01:26:26,840 --> 01:26:30,599 Speaker 1: you also added to that this whole nobail insanity. How 1448 01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:33,400 Speaker 1: many times had that one guy that was highlighted, I 1449 01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:36,240 Speaker 1: think in the New York Post. How many banks did 1450 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:38,679 Speaker 1: this guy rob? And they kept letting them out again 1451 01:26:38,720 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 1: and again, and he kept saying to the governor, governor 1452 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 1: and the mayor, thank you very much for letting me 1453 01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:46,840 Speaker 1: out so I can rob another bank. Well, that John, 1454 01:26:46,960 --> 01:26:49,639 Speaker 1: he came up from South Carolina. He hit a lotto, 1455 01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:52,920 Speaker 1: he hit powerball in New York City, he said, in 1456 01:26:53,040 --> 01:26:55,479 Speaker 1: South Carolina when he tried to rob a bank, he's 1457 01:26:55,520 --> 01:26:57,920 Speaker 1: looking at five years and more. He came up to 1458 01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:02,000 Speaker 1: New York City. He got a supperience sticket. That meant 1459 01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:05,439 Speaker 1: he slipped through the cracks, released into the streets, and 1460 01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 1: he goes, they can't believe this. All I gotta do 1461 01:27:07,880 --> 01:27:09,920 Speaker 1: is go out and get another gun and rob another bank. 1462 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:13,120 Speaker 1: And he did it five times, gone five times, and 1463 01:27:13,240 --> 01:27:16,200 Speaker 1: he kept being released until finally they charged him with 1464 01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 1: a federal climb and they obviously there's bail at the 1465 01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:23,240 Speaker 1: federal system, and they reminded him to a federal jail. 1466 01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:27,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it's so bad, Curtis that you see these 1467 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:32,320 Speaker 1: videos of I mean literally older women, they're just getting 1468 01:27:32,400 --> 01:27:36,479 Speaker 1: coal cocked in broad daylight. You know, the squeegee men 1469 01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:38,760 Speaker 1: are back. For those that live outside of New York City, 1470 01:27:38,800 --> 01:27:41,040 Speaker 1: you may not know what squeegee men are, but in 1471 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:44,600 Speaker 1: heavy trafficked areas in New York City, you drive in 1472 01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:47,040 Speaker 1: your car, you stop at a light, you have cars 1473 01:27:47,080 --> 01:27:49,160 Speaker 1: in front of you, cars behind you, there's no place 1474 01:27:49,200 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 1: for you to go, and people will come up to 1475 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:56,280 Speaker 1: your car aggressively, usually with dirty water. They will take 1476 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 1: a squeegee. They'll start cleaning your windshield and you better 1477 01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:04,280 Speaker 1: fork over some money or often there's a confrontation. Correct. Correct, 1478 01:28:04,439 --> 01:28:07,559 Speaker 1: And that's when I'm mayor. It's quality of life again, 1479 01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:11,160 Speaker 1: just like when Rudy was mayor. It's zero tolerance. It's 1480 01:28:11,200 --> 01:28:14,519 Speaker 1: the broken windows theory. It's getting things back on track 1481 01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:16,800 Speaker 1: because we will never recover as a city. We will 1482 01:28:16,880 --> 01:28:22,439 Speaker 1: never resurrect ourselves economically unless we have safe streets, safe subway, 1483 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:25,960 Speaker 1: safe parts, and safe schools for our children. And sean 1484 01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:29,439 Speaker 1: to all of your audience wherever they're listening, the help 1485 01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 1: I need from all of them is. The Democrats have 1486 01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:34,760 Speaker 1: millions of dollars in the award chests and they're going 1487 01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:36,679 Speaker 1: to drop it on my head. You know, they're gonna 1488 01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:40,480 Speaker 1: call me a racist, the masogynists that setsis a homophope, 1489 01:28:40,520 --> 01:28:42,760 Speaker 1: you name it, what they do to all Republicans. So 1490 01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:46,320 Speaker 1: people would be kind enough to go to Curtis Faformaya 1491 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:49,840 Speaker 1: dot com, Curtis fly offormaya dot com see what I 1492 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:52,719 Speaker 1: stand for, what I intend on doing for the city 1493 01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:55,760 Speaker 1: that birthed me, New York City, and I am New York. 1494 01:28:56,200 --> 01:28:59,200 Speaker 1: But to help me raise the money necessary to defend 1495 01:28:59,280 --> 01:29:02,040 Speaker 1: my honor the positions that I take if we get 1496 01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:05,519 Speaker 1: this city back on track.

And but we but it's 1506 01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:45,120 Speaker 1: possible to reform New York City. Bring it back to 1507 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:49,160 Speaker 1: the safe days of Rudy Giuliani. You know, Rudy Giuliani. 1508 01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:51,320 Speaker 1: Throw the first rock he had arrested, throw the second 1509 01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:53,639 Speaker 1: rock he had arrested, Row the third rock he had arrested. 1510 01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:58,880 Speaker 1: Then people stopped throwing rocks. Pretty simple, basic principles. Certainly, 1511 01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:02,240 Speaker 1: stop and frisk worked, all of these things you want 1512 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 1: to bring back to the city.
