I went over 23 00:01:11,977 --> 00:01:15,697 Speaker 2: there in I started going over right after the Wall fell, 24 00:01:15,817 --> 00:01:18,937 Speaker 2: and I ended up living and working there for eighteen years. 25 00:01:19,177 --> 00:01:23,337 Speaker 2: So I met Sebastian, got married. We lived in Hungary 26 00:01:23,577 --> 00:01:27,257 Speaker 2: for about twelve years, then we moved back here. So 27 00:01:28,657 --> 00:01:31,937 Speaker 2: in the meantime, I also worked for the Trump administration 28 00:01:32,057 --> 00:01:36,537 Speaker 2: in the Department Homeland Security. Then I went over to Heritage. 29 00:01:36,617 --> 00:01:40,497 Speaker 2: So I've always been active in the conservative movement, you know, 30 00:01:40,537 --> 00:01:45,497 Speaker 2: a lot of focus on sort of national security, post communism. 31 00:01:46,017 --> 00:01:48,377 Speaker 2: And met Mike at Heritage and I just I just 32 00:01:48,457 --> 00:01:50,937 Speaker 2: have to mention I have a new job now too. 33 00:01:51,097 --> 00:01:54,097 Speaker 2: As of Saturday, I am the chair of the Fairfax 34 00:01:54,137 --> 00:01:56,857 Speaker 2: County GOP.

Yeah, that's an important That's a battleground area, Fairfax, 36 00:02:03,657 --> 00:02:05,417 Speaker 1: I would I would assume, right, I mean it's it's 37 00:02:05,417 --> 00:02:08,977 Speaker 1: northern Virginia, right, You're like, it's like a communist strong. 38 00:02:10,217 --> 00:02:13,777 Speaker 2: The California of the East coast. And I really believe 39 00:02:13,817 --> 00:02:17,657 Speaker 2: in taking my anti Marxism fight to the ground, you know, 40 00:02:17,977 --> 00:02:21,897 Speaker 2: I really believe in living what I preached. So I 41 00:02:21,937 --> 00:02:24,577 Speaker 2: got really involved in local politics. But yeah, so Mike 42 00:02:24,657 --> 00:02:27,857 Speaker 2: and I came together at the Heritage Foundation. We were 43 00:02:27,897 --> 00:02:31,257 Speaker 2: both really interested in this topic. You know. I went 44 00:02:31,297 --> 00:02:34,977 Speaker 2: over to Heritage in twenty twenty we were dealing with 45 00:02:35,017 --> 00:02:38,777 Speaker 2: the sixteen nineteen project, right Nicole Hannah Jones that The 46 00:02:38,817 --> 00:02:43,377 Speaker 2: New York Times published telling us that we're irredeemably racist 47 00:02:43,937 --> 00:02:47,737 Speaker 2: as a nation. And then of course the COVID shutdowns 48 00:02:47,937 --> 00:02:51,337 Speaker 2: and everybody's starting to see what's really being taught in schools, 49 00:02:51,777 --> 00:02:54,217 Speaker 2: and then of course you have May twenty one with 50 00:02:54,297 --> 00:02:58,217 Speaker 2: the George Floyd protests and riots, and so, you know, 51 00:02:58,297 --> 00:03:01,017 Speaker 2: Mike and I just kept talking about this stuff and saying, 52 00:03:01,497 --> 00:03:03,257 Speaker 2: you know, we need to do a better job of 53 00:03:03,297 --> 00:03:07,337 Speaker 2: explaining to people how we got here, and we need 54 00:03:07,337 --> 00:03:09,777 Speaker 2: to give them tools to fight back. So that's why 55 00:03:09,817 --> 00:03:11,937 Speaker 2: we collaborated, and it's been a lot of fun. 56 00:03:12,257 --> 00:03:15,137 Speaker 1: I'm actually really curious just about something you mentioned. You 57 00:03:15,217 --> 00:03:20,217 Speaker 1: were said you met sab Sebastian in Hungary. What years 58 00:03:20,217 --> 00:03:21,777 Speaker 1: were you? I just wanted to tell it what was 59 00:03:21,817 --> 00:03:23,617 Speaker 1: it like, you know, when you were because you were 60 00:03:23,617 --> 00:03:27,537 Speaker 1: there pretty close to when I assume things were just 61 00:03:27,537 --> 00:03:30,217 Speaker 1: getting going, getting changing. What years were you there? 62 00:03:30,737 --> 00:03:35,377 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I went over in May of nineteen ninety, 63 00:03:35,457 --> 00:03:37,977 Speaker 2: so I was there, so that was about what six 64 00:03:38,017 --> 00:03:41,137 Speaker 2: months after the Wall fell. I was there for the 65 00:03:41,177 --> 00:03:46,737 Speaker 2: first post communist elections in Czechoslovakia, and I really focused 66 00:03:46,737 --> 00:03:52,577 Speaker 2: on three countries. Czechoslovakia was still Czechoslovakia, Poland and Romania. 67 00:03:52,737 --> 00:03:55,777 Speaker 2: And over the course of a few years, I interviewed 68 00:03:55,777 --> 00:03:58,697 Speaker 2: about six hundred different people. So I was actually trying 69 00:03:58,697 --> 00:04:00,697 Speaker 2: to write a book, which I haven't yet written, not 70 00:04:00,857 --> 00:04:04,057 Speaker 2: that one, but I did a ton of research and 71 00:04:04,097 --> 00:04:06,817 Speaker 2: it was it was just an incredible time to be there. 72 00:04:06,897 --> 00:04:11,177 Speaker 2: You know, it was so exciting. People did not believe 73 00:04:11,177 --> 00:04:13,817 Speaker 2: that communism was going to end in their lifetime, so 74 00:04:13,897 --> 00:04:17,617 Speaker 2: there was just a huge excitement. But it was also, 75 00:04:17,697 --> 00:04:19,857 Speaker 2: you know, a ton of difficulty. What do you do 76 00:04:19,937 --> 00:04:23,497 Speaker 2: with all these former secret police and and former communists? 77 00:04:23,537 --> 00:04:26,977 Speaker 2: That was a very big dilemma. So that was a 78 00:04:26,977 --> 00:04:29,577 Speaker 2: lot of what he and I worked on. And yeah, 79 00:04:29,617 --> 00:04:32,217 Speaker 2: it was just it was a very interesting time to 80 00:04:32,297 --> 00:04:32,977 Speaker 2: be in the world. 81 00:04:33,017 --> 00:04:36,817 Speaker 1: It was was the was the atmosphere, the general atmosphere 82 00:04:36,817 --> 00:04:40,697 Speaker 1: among people in Hungary after the wall came down? Was 83 00:04:40,697 --> 00:04:44,657 Speaker 1: it more like exhaustion and a recognition that they you know, 84 00:04:44,817 --> 00:04:47,417 Speaker 1: what was it like escaping from prison for most people 85 00:04:47,617 --> 00:04:50,617 Speaker 1: or was it backflips you know the future is ours? 86 00:04:50,657 --> 00:04:54,417 Speaker 2: You know, it was it was jubilation, It was it 87 00:04:54,457 --> 00:05:01,257 Speaker 2: was unbelievable excitement and very very pro American. You know, 88 00:05:01,297 --> 00:05:05,617 Speaker 2: the Americans got very involved all over East central Eastern 89 00:05:05,657 --> 00:05:10,297 Speaker 2: Europe helping with the transition. It was it was it 90 00:05:10,377 --> 00:05:13,537 Speaker 2: was actually like party atmosphere. It was very very fun. 91 00:05:13,697 --> 00:05:18,337 Speaker 2: Tons of expats just the world was opening up for them. 92 00:05:18,417 --> 00:05:21,777 Speaker 2: You know. It was very very exciting, very cool. 93 00:05:21,937 --> 00:05:24,137 Speaker 1: Interesting. Well, I look forward to that book as well. 94 00:05:24,217 --> 00:05:25,697 Speaker 2: That be more one day. 95 00:05:26,057 --> 00:05:29,417 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's got to happen for sure. Tell me about 96 00:05:29,457 --> 00:05:32,497 Speaker 1: next generation Marxism. 97 00:05:32,657 --> 00:05:35,657 Speaker 2: Yeah, so, you know, Mike and I you know this, 98 00:05:36,057 --> 00:05:38,457 Speaker 2: we had a great time doing the research for this book, 99 00:05:38,497 --> 00:05:40,577 Speaker 2: and I think, you know, we both found a lot 100 00:05:40,617 --> 00:05:43,657 Speaker 2: of things that we really hadn't known before, even though 101 00:05:43,657 --> 00:05:48,777 Speaker 2: we're both deeply ensconced in this stuff. And you know, 102 00:05:48,977 --> 00:05:52,737 Speaker 2: I think it's it's important for people to understand exactly 103 00:05:52,777 --> 00:05:54,777 Speaker 2: what it is they're up against today. You know, so 104 00:05:54,897 --> 00:05:57,097 Speaker 2: many people over the last couple of years have just 105 00:05:57,137 --> 00:06:00,817 Speaker 2: looked at this situation and they're saying to themselves, how 106 00:06:00,857 --> 00:06:03,537 Speaker 2: have we gotten to the point where we are ripping 107 00:06:03,577 --> 00:06:08,297 Speaker 2: down our statues, tearing down our history, undermining our our 108 00:06:08,337 --> 00:06:13,097 Speaker 2: founding principles, and even doing insane things like putting pornographic 109 00:06:13,097 --> 00:06:17,417 Speaker 2: books in kids' schools and telling children they can mutilate 110 00:06:17,497 --> 00:06:23,337 Speaker 2: themselves like it's it's really almost incomprehensible. But there is 111 00:06:23,377 --> 00:06:26,577 Speaker 2: a logical path that brought us here, and I think 112 00:06:26,577 --> 00:06:31,217 Speaker 2: if people understand the path, it makes more sense. It 113 00:06:31,257 --> 00:06:34,737 Speaker 2: will also energize them, I think, to want to fight 114 00:06:34,817 --> 00:06:38,617 Speaker 2: back because you then understand better absolutely how insidious it is. 115 00:06:39,617 --> 00:06:42,457 Speaker 2: And it also helps give you the tools to fight back. 116 00:06:43,377 --> 00:06:45,817 Speaker 2: What makes it next gen? Because that you know, that's 117 00:06:45,857 --> 00:06:46,897 Speaker 2: always the big question. 118 00:06:47,937 --> 00:06:49,537 Speaker 1: Hey, can I cant of pause you for one second? 119 00:06:49,697 --> 00:06:51,537 Speaker 1: I want to come back to you mentioned the sort 120 00:06:51,537 --> 00:06:54,257 Speaker 1: of progression in the pathway. I was hoping you could 121 00:06:54,257 --> 00:06:55,937 Speaker 1: take us down that. But first up, just a quick 122 00:06:55,977 --> 00:06:59,297 Speaker 1: word from our sponsor here, Bear Creek Arsenal.

All right, Kate, Sorry, 144 00:08:02,137 --> 00:08:07,577 Speaker 1: you were telling me about the progression the Marxist conveyor belt, 145 00:08:07,577 --> 00:08:09,737 Speaker 1: if you will, and how it's taken us to this 146 00:08:09,777 --> 00:08:12,337 Speaker 1: place of left wing lunacy in America. 147 00:08:13,217 --> 00:08:15,257 Speaker 2: Yeah. So the important thing is, you know, you had 148 00:08:15,257 --> 00:08:18,697 Speaker 2: the original marx which said the workers are going to revolt, 149 00:08:18,857 --> 00:08:21,457 Speaker 2: but of course they never did, right, because what kept 150 00:08:21,497 --> 00:08:25,217 Speaker 2: happening was the workers actually wanted to keep their jobs right, 151 00:08:25,297 --> 00:08:31,137 Speaker 2: and capitalism, actually industrialization kept improving conditions for the workers, 152 00:08:31,337 --> 00:08:34,057 Speaker 2: so that, you know, they just the revolt never happened 153 00:08:34,297 --> 00:08:38,177 Speaker 2: until Lenin came along, and Lenin understood if you really 154 00:08:38,457 --> 00:08:42,857 Speaker 2: organize and then if you also really make people feel aggrieved, 155 00:08:43,377 --> 00:08:46,217 Speaker 2: you can bring about a kind of revolution. So you 156 00:08:46,297 --> 00:08:48,937 Speaker 2: had that, you know, that whole phase. But here in 157 00:08:48,937 --> 00:08:52,657 Speaker 2: the United States, it really did not ever take off. 158 00:08:53,537 --> 00:08:58,577 Speaker 2: You had smatterings of communist sympathizers, but it never went mainstream. Right, 159 00:08:59,377 --> 00:09:02,377 Speaker 2: So there was this this next moment, I would say, 160 00:09:02,417 --> 00:09:05,177 Speaker 2: came about in the late fifties, so a lot of 161 00:09:05,217 --> 00:09:09,817 Speaker 2: people don't know this. Harvard University actually brought Fidel Castro 162 00:09:09,897 --> 00:09:13,017 Speaker 2: to come and speak to the students just months after 163 00:09:13,177 --> 00:09:16,537 Speaker 2: he brought about the revolution in Cuba, which it still 164 00:09:16,537 --> 00:09:19,137 Speaker 2: blows my mind, and you know, we wonder why Harvard 165 00:09:19,257 --> 00:09:23,137 Speaker 2: is where it is today. But at that point, this 166 00:09:23,257 --> 00:09:27,897 Speaker 2: was the development of the new left, where the thought was, Okay, 167 00:09:27,937 --> 00:09:30,177 Speaker 2: the revolution is not going to come from the workers. 168 00:09:30,777 --> 00:09:33,257 Speaker 2: It can come from the students. The students can be 169 00:09:33,377 --> 00:09:36,177 Speaker 2: the locus of revolution. So of course, we saw what 170 00:09:36,217 --> 00:09:38,337 Speaker 2: we saw in the sixties, and it was very much 171 00:09:38,337 --> 00:09:41,937 Speaker 2: wrapped up with the civil rights movement. But honestly, if 172 00:09:41,977 --> 00:09:44,977 Speaker 2: you look at what the students for Democratic Society did 173 00:09:45,297 --> 00:09:49,497 Speaker 2: going into our cities in the sixties and fomenting revolution, 174 00:09:50,297 --> 00:09:53,417 Speaker 2: you know, I would say that the sort of the 175 00:09:53,457 --> 00:09:57,697 Speaker 2: civil rights explosions of the sixties were really generated by 176 00:09:57,817 --> 00:10:02,257 Speaker 2: the radical elitist students, right, And that's a whole interesting story. 177 00:10:02,817 --> 00:10:06,257 Speaker 2: So again, the revolution failed right by the end of 178 00:10:06,297 --> 00:10:09,377 Speaker 2: the sixties. So you had the student revolutionaries kind of 179 00:10:09,417 --> 00:10:14,737 Speaker 2: split up in several different camps. One camp went completely radical, weather, underground, 180 00:10:14,857 --> 00:10:21,377 Speaker 2: right terrorism, bombings everywhere. Another group went and really organized 181 00:10:21,497 --> 00:10:24,377 Speaker 2: and they're still doing that and that's part of the 182 00:10:24,457 --> 00:10:27,577 Speaker 2: roots of Black Lives Matter. And then another group went 183 00:10:27,657 --> 00:10:29,977 Speaker 2: into the law schools and they said, well, we're going 184 00:10:30,017 --> 00:10:32,737 Speaker 2: to bring about the changes that we want by changing 185 00:10:32,817 --> 00:10:36,617 Speaker 2: the laws. That was critical legal studies. But what they 186 00:10:36,737 --> 00:10:40,337 Speaker 2: ended up doing was after about twenty years, that led 187 00:10:40,377 --> 00:10:43,617 Speaker 2: to a whole nother phase, which was critical race theory. 188 00:10:43,737 --> 00:10:47,497 Speaker 2: That the people who started critical race theory came from 189 00:10:47,577 --> 00:10:52,697 Speaker 2: those Marxist legal scholars, but they said to them, okay, 190 00:10:52,857 --> 00:10:55,417 Speaker 2: enough of you white men, you're out of the game. 191 00:10:55,497 --> 00:10:58,137 Speaker 2: We're taking it over now. And that was critical race theory. 192 00:10:58,177 --> 00:11:01,217 Speaker 2: And so that was really nineteen And what's so fascinating 193 00:11:01,257 --> 00:11:05,177 Speaker 2: about this, That was nineteen eighty nine, right the year 194 00:11:05,257 --> 00:11:08,497 Speaker 2: we all thought that communism was dead because the Berlin 195 00:11:08,577 --> 00:11:12,177 Speaker 2: Wall fell into Eastern Europe, was actually in fact the 196 00:11:12,217 --> 00:11:15,417 Speaker 2: birth of this this new phase. And in fact, Mike 197 00:11:15,897 --> 00:11:18,937 Speaker 2: found this incredible newspaper article in the New York Times 198 00:11:19,417 --> 00:11:24,177 Speaker 2: that said, this is the year that Marxism has gone 199 00:11:24,217 --> 00:11:28,257 Speaker 2: mainstream in US colleges and universities. But you know, we 200 00:11:28,257 --> 00:11:30,777 Speaker 2: weren't paying attention because we we thought it was all 201 00:11:30,817 --> 00:11:33,337 Speaker 2: over because of what was happening in central Eastern Europe. 202 00:11:33,497 --> 00:11:39,417 Speaker 1: Okay, what what is the best way to describe the 203 00:11:39,457 --> 00:11:41,657 Speaker 1: reality of what we're seeing in this country? Is it 204 00:11:42,697 --> 00:11:47,817 Speaker 1: cultural Marxism neo Marxism? I know, next Generation Marxism is 205 00:11:47,817 --> 00:11:50,617 Speaker 1: the title of your book. But how do we describe 206 00:11:51,297 --> 00:11:55,337 Speaker 1: what is the ideology that somehow covers you know, transgender 207 00:11:55,377 --> 00:11:59,017 Speaker 1: surgery for twelve year old radical race politics and BLM, 208 00:11:59,857 --> 00:12:05,537 Speaker 1: and you know climate change catastrophism all, how should we 209 00:12:05,577 --> 00:12:07,417 Speaker 1: refer to that? You know what I mean? What's the 210 00:12:07,617 --> 00:12:08,217 Speaker 1: term that we. 211 00:12:08,337 --> 00:12:11,417 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a well, honestly, that's why Mike and 212 00:12:11,457 --> 00:12:13,777 Speaker 2: I came up with this new term, next gen Marxism, 213 00:12:13,817 --> 00:12:17,817 Speaker 2: because there isn't a term out there, right, It's not 214 00:12:17,977 --> 00:12:21,857 Speaker 2: exactly cultural Marxism. I mean, cultural Marxism is gram Shey, right. 215 00:12:21,977 --> 00:12:26,257 Speaker 2: Cultural Marxism is the argument that you're not going to 216 00:12:26,337 --> 00:12:30,457 Speaker 2: see a spontaneous revolution, so you therefore have to go 217 00:12:30,537 --> 00:12:34,497 Speaker 2: in and change the way people think. That's that's cultural Marxism, right, 218 00:12:34,537 --> 00:12:38,977 Speaker 2: it's changing people's thinking. This thing, as you've identified, this 219 00:12:39,057 --> 00:12:43,897 Speaker 2: thing that we're seeing now is really unique. It's really 220 00:12:44,297 --> 00:12:47,297 Speaker 2: I really would put its its sort of start at 221 00:12:47,417 --> 00:12:52,097 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty nine with the emergence of critical race theory 222 00:12:52,177 --> 00:13:00,777 Speaker 2: and this focus on these characteristics race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation. Right. 223 00:13:02,137 --> 00:13:04,137 Speaker 2: But you know, aside from us coming up with this 224 00:13:04,217 --> 00:13:07,177 Speaker 2: term next gen Marxism, there really isn't another term. And 225 00:13:07,337 --> 00:13:09,457 Speaker 2: I just want to add, I do think it's super 226 00:13:09,457 --> 00:13:12,577 Speaker 2: important that we do include the term Marxism in this. 227 00:13:13,177 --> 00:13:16,657 Speaker 2: You know, not everybody will self identify as a Marxist 228 00:13:16,697 --> 00:13:19,737 Speaker 2: who's a part of this, but one hundred percent it 229 00:13:19,777 --> 00:13:23,057 Speaker 2: is Marxist in its roots, and that's important to understand. 230 00:13:23,057 --> 00:13:26,817 Speaker 2: Because Marxism is a politics of hate. It is the 231 00:13:26,817 --> 00:13:30,897 Speaker 2: politics of hate and envy and conflict, and it's so 232 00:13:31,057 --> 00:13:34,537 Speaker 2: fundamentally Unamerican. It's really terrible. 233 00:13:34,857 --> 00:13:37,937 Speaker 1: Yeah. A friend of mine, Jesse Kelly, I think, has 234 00:13:37,937 --> 00:13:40,617 Speaker 1: referred to it as the religion of malcontents. 235 00:13:41,017 --> 00:13:42,297 Speaker 2: I think that's great. 236 00:13:42,337 --> 00:13:44,697 Speaker 1: They guess at good, pretty good description as well. I 237 00:13:44,697 --> 00:13:46,297 Speaker 1: want to come back into more of this and also 238 00:13:46,337 --> 00:13:48,257 Speaker 1: how we fight back, which I know is part of 239 00:13:48,737 --> 00:13:52,697 Speaker 1: next Gen Marxism, the book that Kate Corca and her 240 00:13:53,217 --> 00:13:55,177 Speaker 1: co author Mike Gonzalez have written for us. Will come 241 00:13:55,177 --> 00:13:56,537 Speaker 1: back into that a second. But you know, here on 242 00:13:56,577 --> 00:13:59,257 Speaker 1: the podcast, we cut through the noise and nonsense, the 243 00:13:59,337 --> 00:14:01,737 Speaker 1: ulterior motives out there, and tell you the truths that 244 00:14:01,777 --> 00:14:04,257 Speaker 1: you need to hear. My friend Mark Chaikin does the 245 00:14:04,257 --> 00:14:06,257 Speaker 1: same thing, but he does it for the US stock market. 246 00:14:06,617 --> 00:14:08,937 Speaker 1: Mark worked on Wall Street for fifty years and across 247 00:14:08,937 --> 00:14:12,217 Speaker 1: those decades did three new industries for the Nasdaq and 248 00:14:12,257 --> 00:14:14,177 Speaker 1: has predicted some of the biggest market shifts of the 249 00:14:14,217 --> 00:14:17,897 Speaker 1: past decade, including the recent mania in AI stocks. Mark 250 00:14:17,897 --> 00:14:19,897 Speaker 1: says the majority of Americans are about to miss out 251 00:14:19,937 --> 00:14:23,017 Speaker 1: on a critical turning point in this AI frenzy, and 252 00:14:23,057 --> 00:14:25,777 Speaker 1: he predicts that dozens of specific companies will have huge 253 00:14:25,817 --> 00:14:28,697 Speaker 1: moves in just the next ninety days. Mark has agreed 254 00:14:29,497 --> 00:14:32,017 Speaker 1: to share one of his favorite AI stocks, Divine Now 255 00:14:32,057 --> 00:14:34,057 Speaker 1: with you.

All right, Kate, 260 00:14:48,937 --> 00:14:52,657 Speaker 1: how do we win against these neo marxistcommis. 261 00:14:53,217 --> 00:14:55,577 Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, one of the great things that we did 262 00:14:55,697 --> 00:14:57,777 Speaker 2: was going back and looking at history, was looking at 263 00:14:57,817 --> 00:15:00,017 Speaker 2: what have we done successfully in the past. And one 264 00:15:00,057 --> 00:15:03,017 Speaker 2: of my favorite examples was something called the Active Measures 265 00:15:03,057 --> 00:15:05,857 Speaker 2: Working Group. Did you ever come across that in the 266 00:15:06,217 --> 00:15:07,657 Speaker 2: work that you did. Have you ever heard about this? 267 00:15:08,857 --> 00:15:11,617 Speaker 1: I am familiar, yes, with the with active Measures? Yes? 268 00:15:11,897 --> 00:15:14,897 Speaker 2: Yeah, So the Active Measures Working Group was something that 269 00:15:14,977 --> 00:15:18,537 Speaker 2: was put together by a group of young men back 270 00:15:19,057 --> 00:15:22,417 Speaker 2: under Reagan, before Reagan even to fight back against what 271 00:15:22,457 --> 00:15:24,977 Speaker 2: the Soviet Union was doing. And you know, we looked 272 00:15:25,017 --> 00:15:27,657 Speaker 2: at lessons from that and basically, you know, the important 273 00:15:27,697 --> 00:15:31,417 Speaker 2: things are people, you need to find like minded people. 274 00:15:31,497 --> 00:15:34,137 Speaker 2: You need to come together. You need to share information 275 00:15:34,217 --> 00:15:36,737 Speaker 2: about what's going on. No one's got, you know, a 276 00:15:36,777 --> 00:15:39,177 Speaker 2: full vision on this, and we need to understand it. 277 00:15:39,457 --> 00:15:42,097 Speaker 2: You got to find like minded people. You have to 278 00:15:42,137 --> 00:15:45,177 Speaker 2: come together to fight it. You have to be willing 279 00:15:45,617 --> 00:15:48,217 Speaker 2: to speak out against it and call it what it is. 280 00:15:48,377 --> 00:15:50,257 Speaker 2: And you know, I'll tell you what I'm seeing it 281 00:15:50,257 --> 00:15:53,857 Speaker 2: happening around the country. One of the great things about 282 00:15:53,617 --> 00:15:57,537 Speaker 2: my time at Heritage was I got to travel around 283 00:15:57,537 --> 00:16:00,137 Speaker 2: the country working with the different parent groups that were 284 00:16:00,177 --> 00:16:03,417 Speaker 2: starting to emerge back in twenty twenty twenty twenty one 285 00:16:04,177 --> 00:16:07,777 Speaker 2: to sort of take back their children's education. And I 286 00:16:07,777 --> 00:16:11,257 Speaker 2: think it's incredible what's happening in this country. I'm I'm 287 00:16:11,297 --> 00:16:14,097 Speaker 2: actually really optimistic about where we're going. 288 00:16:15,337 --> 00:16:17,657 Speaker 1: I love it. Tell me more, you think we're actually 289 00:16:17,657 --> 00:16:18,337 Speaker 1: going to win this thing? 290 00:16:19,617 --> 00:16:22,017 Speaker 2: Yeah? I do. I think the left has gone too far, 291 00:16:22,257 --> 00:16:24,017 Speaker 2: you know. I think when they when they put the 292 00:16:24,257 --> 00:16:26,697 Speaker 2: when they put our children front and center on the 293 00:16:26,737 --> 00:16:30,217 Speaker 2: battle line, I think they made a big mistake, you know. 294 00:16:30,417 --> 00:16:34,937 Speaker 2: I I just even even people who aren't super educated 295 00:16:34,937 --> 00:16:37,377 Speaker 2: on this stuff, they get it in their gut that 296 00:16:37,457 --> 00:16:41,497 Speaker 2: this is fundamentally wrong. This is destructive. It's it's an 297 00:16:41,577 --> 00:16:46,337 Speaker 2: American people just you know, I have to say, like 298 00:16:46,377 --> 00:16:49,537 Speaker 2: I've really come to realize, I think Americans are truly 299 00:16:49,657 --> 00:16:54,057 Speaker 2: fundamentally kind and and I'm even going to say loving 300 00:16:54,137 --> 00:16:59,497 Speaker 2: right and Marxism brings in this this culture of animosity, 301 00:16:59,657 --> 00:17:02,937 Speaker 2: of anger, of you know, being pitted against each other, 302 00:17:03,497 --> 00:17:07,137 Speaker 2: and I just think it really goes against the American grain, 303 00:17:07,217 --> 00:17:09,337 Speaker 2: and some people might get sucked up into it, but 304 00:17:09,417 --> 00:17:13,017 Speaker 2: I think I think the majority of Americans don't. And 305 00:17:13,377 --> 00:17:17,337 Speaker 2: because it's gone after the children, people are rising up 306 00:17:17,377 --> 00:17:20,497 Speaker 2: and saying, no, you know this, You've gone too far. 307 00:17:20,617 --> 00:17:21,577 Speaker 2: We're going to fight back. 308 00:17:22,057 --> 00:17:27,297 Speaker 1: Well, that's very encouraging and important and profound insight.
