As many of 15 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,480 Speaker 1: you know, senter Ted Cruz and I do a podcast 16 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: vertic with Ted Cruz three days a week. But he 17 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: is my guest on my podcast, The Ben Ferguson Podcasts 18 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: about his new book that is out. It is a book, Unwoke, 19 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: that is about what is destroying this country and he 20 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: calls out the Biden administration on border security, He calls 21 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: out the left on what they're doing on college campuses. 22 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: He talks about what happened with COVID and the lockdowns. 23 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: It's an amazing book, and so it's a pleasure to 24 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: have center Ted Cruz as my guest my co hosts 25 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: on my podcast right now. Senator, it's a pleasure to 26 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: have you on live on this show, and we love 27 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: having you obviously to talk about this book. For people 28 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 1: that are looking for a great Christmas gift, grab the 29 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: book if you just want to read a book. 30 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: And I love how they describe it online. 31 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: It says Ted Cruz delivers a realistic battle plan for 32 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: defeating the woke assault on America. That's what inspired you 33 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: to write this book is really a battle plan of Okay, 34 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: the left has gone crazy. We have many that are 35 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: taking over not just government agencies, but our universities are schools. 36 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: They're trying to go into Marxism and socialism. How do 37 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: we get back from the brink of that? And that's 38 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: what inspired you to write a book that's three hundred 39 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: and eighty three pages long. It is a thick book, 40 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: one of the thickest ones you've ever written. 41 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: Well, Ben, that's right, good morning, it's great to be 42 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 3: with you. It's great to be with you. In a 43 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 3: venue other than a verdict, which which you and I 44 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 3: do three days a week, and we both we both 45 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 3: have these conversations a lot. Look the book on Woke, 46 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 3: I wrote because the world has gone insane, and every 47 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 3: one of us knows that we're watching the radical extremes, 48 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 3: the the extreme left that has seized every major institution 49 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 3: in America. And so I wrote this book to do 50 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: a couple of things. Number one, to explain how and 51 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: why that happened. What on earth? Who would have envisioned 52 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 3: a world where corporate America, big business, becomes the economic 53 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 3: enforcer for the hard left, where big tech sensors what 54 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: you do say online, Where where NFL players refuse to 55 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 3: stand for the national anthem, where they teach five and 56 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 3: six year olds in schools that that little boys can 57 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: become girls and little girls can become boys. This is 58 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 3: ex and it's not an act. How it happens. And 59 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: then number two, it lays out a battle plan for 60 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:11,119 Speaker 3: how we fight back, how we defeat the cultural Marxism 61 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 3: in America. And it lays out specific concrete steps we 62 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: can take to take our country back, because if we 63 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: don't do it, we're going to lose our nation, and 64 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 3: we've got to pull it back from the radical extreme. 65 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: You mentioned taking your country back and pulling us back. 66 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: There was some very encouraging poll numbers that came out 67 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: this morning, and I want to get your reaction this 68 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: because it's obviously great news. If you're a conservative, your 69 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: your favorite Capitol Hill reporter, I save this just for you. 70 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: Senator Manny Raju had this bleak report this morning about 71 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: how bad the new poll numbers are for Democrats, specifically 72 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. 73 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: Listened. 74 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 4: One year from today, America will be going to the 75 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 4: polls to choose the president. And there are alarm bells 76 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 4: going off inside the White House this morning. There are 77 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 4: three big polls out about the race for the White House, 78 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: and none of it is good for Joe Biden. Race 79 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 4: for president is decided state by state, not nationally, So 80 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 4: this morning we want to focus on a series of 81 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 4: battleground state polls for the New York Times. In Nevada, 82 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,559 Speaker 4: Trump leads by ten, leads by six in Georgia, five 83 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 4: in Arizona, five in Michigan, and four in Pennsylvania. Biden 84 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 4: has just a narrow two point lead in Wisconsin. Now, 85 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 4: Biden won all six of those states in twenty twenty 86 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 4: and likely needs to win at least four of them 87 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 4: to be re elected. And if you dig a little 88 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 4: deeper into the poll, things look even bleaker. Voters in 89 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 4: these six states say Biden's policies have hurt them personally, 90 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 4: and those numbers are flipped when you ask about Trump. 91 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 4: Most Saint Trump's policies have helped them personally. And then 92 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 4: there are huge cracks in the coalition that won Biden 93 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 4: the White House in twenty twenty. Yes, he's leading among 94 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 4: those demographics, but not by nearly as much as he 95 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 4: needs to be. He's ahead of Trump among young voters 96 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 4: in these battleground states by one point. Trump twenty two 97 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 4: percent of blackboards, which would be a historically huge measure 98 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 4: for a Republican, and the margins are small for Biden 99 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 4: among Hispanics and suburban voters. 100 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: Now, sinat you hear that, and it's just like rapture 101 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: alert number one, Manu Raju actually giving you poll numbers 102 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: telling you alarm bells are going off inside the White 103 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: House this morning. One year way, this is I think 104 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: massive numbers, not just for Trump but for conservative ideas. 105 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: Saying all right, we went to this socialism, and that's 106 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: what the Biden administration has been doing. And we went 107 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: to this extreme woke agenda and now it's turning American families. 108 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: These numbers are spelled horrific news for Democrats. 109 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 3: Well, look, that's exactly right. I have several thoughts. Number One, 110 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 3: it's kind of amusing listening to see it in put 111 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 3: against reporter on air where he's practically crying he's so 112 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 3: unhappy with those poll numbers because it is bad news. Listen, 113 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 3: the Biden agenda is a train wreck. It is a mess. 114 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 3: The classic question for any election is are you better 115 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 3: off than you were four years ago? And for almost 116 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 3: any voter in the United States, the answer is hell no, 117 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 3: Like for everyone between inflation and crime and chaos at 118 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 3: our southern border, not to mention two wars across the 119 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 3: globe at America at greater jeopardy than we've ever seen 120 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: in our lifetimes, the answer unless you are an international 121 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 3: drug dealer or human trafficker, in which case the answer 122 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 3: is yes, your life is much better today than it 123 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 3: was four years ago, and you ought to vote for 124 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: Joe Biden. You're not a citizen, but who cares. He 125 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,679 Speaker 3: wants the illegals to vote. So that's fine, but unless 126 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 3: you're a drug cartel, the answer for everyone else is no. 127 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 3: Everything else has gotten crappier. And so I think those 128 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 3: poll numbers show that the Biden record is a train 129 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 3: wreck and people want to get back to common sense 130 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 3: policies that work. I also think those poll numbers are 131 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 3: sending off alarm bells. We saw David Axelrod, Barack Obama's 132 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: right hand public, urging Biden to drop out of the race. 133 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 3: I think Dems are panicking, and Ben, you and I 134 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 3: broke the news three months ago on an episode of 135 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 3: our podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz that the odds keep 136 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 3: rising every day that the Democrats will jettison Joe Biden 137 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: and try to parachute in Michelle Obama at the last minute. 138 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: And I got to say, with these poll numbers and 139 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 3: an axel Rod coming out public, those odds continue to 140 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 3: rise every day. 141 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: All right, let's dive into that, because this is I 142 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: think part of what you talk about in your book 143 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: is the Democratic Party has gotten so extreme. They're coming 144 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: after parents, They're coming after your kids. At universities and 145 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: public schools. They tried to push this transgenderism down our 146 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: throats and say, if you don't agree with it, we'll 147 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: try to ruin your business, ruin your family, ruin any 148 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: you know, school, or anybody that disagrees with us. We'll 149 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: try to kick you out of office. You've got Hollywood 150 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: that's all in on this. And then and then you 151 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: go back to what you just mentioned. This is a 152 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: moment where Democrats do you think they believe maybe they 153 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: went too far and they got a dial it back 154 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: and they've lost the country because they put all this 155 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: and implement it, and now it's such a disaster on 156 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: the average American family. And if they do parachute in 157 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: Michelle Obama, to be clear, she's just as bad, if 158 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: not worse, than Joe Biden. She's a woke person, she's 159 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: a Marxist, a socialist, however you want to describe her 160 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: with policies, that's what Obama is as well. But if 161 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: they parachute her in, it's about likability, right, She'll come 162 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: out as a mom, She'll say she wants this for 163 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,719 Speaker 1: the country, and they parachute her into the convention and 164 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: she doesn't even have to talk policies. It's just likability, Like, hey, 165 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: do you like Oprah. Do you not like Oprah? It's like, hey, 166 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: do you like Michelle Obama? Do you not like Michelle Obama? 167 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: And then it's only what three month campaign? It would 168 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: be a scary yet brilliant move. 169 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 3: It would be a very scary move. And listened to 170 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 3: to be clear. You know, you asked our Dems getting 171 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 3: nervous they've gone too far left. I got to say, 172 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: if they are, I see no evidence of it. The 173 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 3: Democrats I served with in the Senate, they're still much 174 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: more afraid of being primary from the left than they 175 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 3: are of losing the general election. And it's because the 176 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 3: media has been corrupted. So this book Unwoke what it 177 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 3: examines how this happened, and it starts with the universities, 178 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 3: because Marxists always start by going after our kids. The 179 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 3: first chapter in the book is entitled Universities the Wuhan Lab, 180 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: the Wuhan lab of the woke virus. And that is 181 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 3: because universities are where the woke virus was created, that's 182 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,479 Speaker 3: where it mutated, it's where it's spread. And the cultural Marxists, 183 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 3: beginning in the sixties and seventies, began seizing the universities 184 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 3: and raising up these campus radicals. But from there it's 185 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: spread to every other institution. So each chapter the book 186 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 3: focuses on a different American institution that the cultural Marxists 187 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 3: have seen. So it goes from the universities to K 188 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 3: through twelve education, to journalism, to big business, to big tech, 189 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 3: to entertainment including movies and TV and music and sports, 190 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 3: to science. Every one of these, one after the other 191 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 3: after the other. The cultural Marxists have seized. And so 192 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 3: you ask, are the Democrats worried they've gone too far left? 193 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 3: I don't think they are, because journalism has been corrupted, 194 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 3: so CNN no longer views its role as being an 195 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 3: actual journalist, as reporting on both sides. They are instead 196 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 3: explicitly propagandas they are Pravda. They are advocating a view 197 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 3: which is the left wing of the Democrat Party. And 198 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 3: so Democrats are incentivized to go hard left because they 199 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 3: will never be called out out by the corporate media 200 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 3: for doing it. And so what this book lay out 201 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 3: our strategies to fight back, how we can turn it around. 202 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about this election coming up. What do 203 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: you think the top issue is going to be for 204 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: the average American nationwide or or the top two. Is 205 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: it gonna be the economy stupid? Is it gonna be 206 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: this this agenda that in the in the extreme of 207 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: the socialism, or is it going to be like, hey, 208 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: cognitive decline of Joe Biden. 209 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 3: So look, we're a year out, and so it's always 210 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 3: hard to predict with certainty where things will be in 211 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 3: a year because there will be events in the world 212 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 3: that that that we can't predict right now. But the 213 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 3: question in every election is are you better off now 214 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 3: than you were four years ago? And perennially, the top 215 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,559 Speaker 3: issue there is the economy and inflation out of control, 216 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 3: the cost of living. People are hurting. 217 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 2: It's hard. 218 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 3: It's more expensive to put food on your table, it's 219 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 3: more expensive to run the air conditioning and heat. It's 220 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 3: much more expensive to fill your car truck with gas. 221 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 3: That is impacting people in a very real sense. There's 222 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: also safety and security. Crime is skyrocketed. Everywhere. People feel unsafe, 223 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 3: They feel unsafe for their kids. Their kids are under assault. 224 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: The chaos of illegal immigration has become real and personal. 225 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 3: Eight million people crossing illegally into this country. They're now 226 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 3: flooding every city. When you've got the Democrat mayor of 227 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 3: New York saying illegal immigration is destroying New York City. 228 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 3: You know it has gotten bad. And then on foreign policy, 229 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 3: Look where foreign policy really matters. It is when people 230 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: again feel don't feel safe and secure, when they feel 231 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 3: like their families are threatened. Think about it. Three years ago, 232 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 3: Joe Biden inherited peace and prosperity. In just under three years, 233 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 3: with Joe Biden's weak and ineffective leadership, we now have 234 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: the largest land war in Europe since World War Two 235 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 3: and the worst attack on end in fifty years. We've 236 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 3: got war in the Middle East. And by the way, 237 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 3: campus radicals on campus threatening Jewish students with violence. Anyone 238 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 3: looking at the world says, this is a mess. And 239 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 3: I think all of those are going to be major 240 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 3: issues come November. 241 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: Let's also talk about this, what's happening in Israel. And 242 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: I want to get into this because there's been this 243 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: I would argue woke ideology that you don't stand with Israel. 244 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: It's now become seeming a part, a bigger part of 245 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. 246 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 2: Obviously the squad. 247 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: I never could have imagined a day that innocent people 248 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: could be butchered this way. Babies beheaded, infants, beheaded put 249 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: in ovens by Hamas. And yet there's a significant portion 250 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party that you serve with in Congress 251 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: that are behind them. 252 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 2: Is that part of. 253 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: The unwoke agenda? Are the woke agenda the Democratic Party 254 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: that you're warning about in the book. 255 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 3: It very much is, you know. You know, a couple 256 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: of weeks ago, I was sitting down with a very 257 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 3: successful tech entrepreneur who's historically been quite left a center, 258 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 3: and he was expressing enormous dismay at the extreme anti 259 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: Semitism and hatred of Israel that is manifesting number one 260 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 3: in the Democrat Party in Congress with the squad and 261 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 3: the viciousness we're seeing, but number two on college campuses. 262 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 3: And he was saying, where did this come from? And 263 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 3: I explained it, you know, really in terms of the 264 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 3: book Unwoke, you know, it describes so Marxism, which derives 265 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 3: obviously from the teachings of Karl Marx. He frames the 266 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 3: world in terms of an inevitable conflict, and Marx broke 267 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 3: it down on socioeconomic terms. It's a conflict between the 268 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 3: oppressors and the victims. The oppressors in Marx's worldview are 269 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 3: the owners of capital and the victims of the proletariat, 270 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 3: the workers. And Marx's solution is a violent overthrow, a 271 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 3: revolution of the proletariat, the workers, seizing the capital and 272 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 3: the means of production, and relying on government to take 273 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 3: it forcibly from from the oppressors and give it to 274 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 3: the victims. That's that's plain vanilla Marxism. That's who who 275 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 3: burrowed into college campuses starting in the sixties and seventies. 276 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 3: What the cultural Marxist have done is taken that Marxist 277 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 3: worldview and they've applied it to cultures. So everything is 278 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 3: an inevitable battle between oppressors and victims. And their solution 279 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 3: to everything is force. Is if you do not comply, 280 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 3: they will make you comply. They will attack and undermine 281 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 3: the oppressors and forcibly benefit the victims. And I explained, Look, 282 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 3: the reason the left is so viciously anti Semitic is 283 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 3: in the cultural Marxist worldview, Jews are coded as oppressors. 284 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 3: When these Marxists look at Israel, they see the Israelis 285 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 3: as press and the Palestinians are coded as victims. And 286 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 3: once you start with that worldview. The only acceptable leftist 287 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: perspective is that you should have a violent revolution of 288 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 3: the victims, the Palestinians against the oppressors and forcibly take 289 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 3: from the oppressors and redistribute to the victims. And that's 290 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 3: why so many on the left are not condemning the 291 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 3: horrific attacks and atrocities from Hamas because they're cheering them on. Look. 292 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 3: Rashida Talib, a Member of Congress member of the Squad, 293 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 3: tweeted out the racist slogan of Hamas from the river 294 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 3: to the sea. Now what that means is from the 295 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 3: Jordan River all the way to the sea. It means 296 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 3: annihilate all of Israel, kill every Jew. It is a 297 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 3: call to genocide. And that's what an elected, current sitting 298 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 3: Democrat member of Congress is saying to the world. 299 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: All right, let me tell you real quick about an 300 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: amazing company called Patriot Mobile.

In this 340 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: woke Kumbaiism, it's not just a disaster on her economy. 341 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: It's a disaster now from a national security standpoint. And 342 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: you witnessed the atrocities that are happening because of this 343 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: woke agenda. 344 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 3: Well, that's exactly right. I was down on our southern 345 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 3: border two weeks ago, and I went out on midnight 346 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 3: patrol with the Border Patrol agents and within minutes, you 347 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 3: encounter groups of illegal aliens. We encountered one group that 348 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 3: had about twenty or twenty five, mostly women and children. 349 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 3: It had young teenagers that had me. There was a 350 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 3: thirteen year old girl who was unaccompanied. She had no 351 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 3: family members with her. There was a fifteen year old 352 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,719 Speaker 3: boy who was un a company. There was a sixteen 353 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 3: year old girl who was unaccompanied. They all said they 354 00:19:55,760 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 3: were coming to America to meet their po and teos. 355 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 3: Of course spanished her uncle. And yet when you question 356 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 3: them about their TEO, they're like, oh, no, no, no, 357 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 3: my TEO doesn't know I'm coming. They just had a 358 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 3: phone number. And tragically, the more we talk to them 359 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 3: and the more it became clear that these uncles were 360 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 3: made up and that these kids, these kids are being trafficked. 361 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 3: And I got to say it was particularly horrific. There 362 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 3: was a ten year old girl with an adult man 363 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 3: who said he was her father, and she said he 364 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 3: was her father, and it was obvious he was not 365 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 3: her father. She was terrified. The look of terror in 366 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 3: her face was haunting. And he had his arm around her, 367 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 3: but not in a gentle caress like a father, but 368 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 3: firmly holding her right where she was so she couldn't move. 369 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 3: And this is a pattern we're seeing a lot. You know, 370 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 3: under the Trump administration, when an adult man would show 371 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 3: up with a child and can't claim to be the 372 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 3: father of the child, they would DNA test them both 373 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 3: and they found about thirty percent of them were not 374 00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 3: related at all. And because the policy favor of family 375 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 3: coming in, the cartels literally rent children to adult men 376 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 3: who want to come ilegally into this country because they 377 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 3: get processed faster. Well, one of the very first things 378 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 3: Joe Biden did when he came in is stopped the 379 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 3: DNA testing and give me any reasonable, irrational justification for 380 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 3: stopping the testing. And what was sick that little girl? 381 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 3: All of these kids very likely had been abused in 382 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 3: the travel to the United States when they were being 383 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 3: trafficked by by human traffickers and vicious drug cartels. But 384 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 3: many of these kids were headed for a life where 385 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 3: they were going to get continue to be in sect slavery. 386 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 3: And I got to say the Border Patrol is frustrated 387 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 3: because the Biden administration won't let them do anything about it. 388 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 3: They're required to just pross them, process them and let 389 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 3: them go. And the numbers are now utterly indefensible. And 390 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 3: I got to tell you, the radical left does not care. 391 00:21:56,040 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: You also talk about not just this idea that they 392 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: want an open border, but they want to fundamentally change 393 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: this country through illegal immigration. And yes, Joe Biden refuses 394 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: to really go down there look at the border. Democrats 395 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: refuse to go down there because I think if they 396 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: saw it, there has to be a moment there where 397 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: you say, Okay, this policy is wrong. It's being exploited. 398 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: They're making money off of human trafficking. And talk about 399 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: the wristbands and what you see and the trees where 400 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: they literally like prizes, they throw the underwear of young 401 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: girls up in these trees just to taunt the US 402 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: border patrol. 403 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 3: Look, those are both realities. If you go down to 404 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 3: the southern border, you see colored wristbands just laying in 405 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 3: the grass by the river. Because virtually every illegal alien 406 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 3: comes into this country, where's one of those colored wristbands. 407 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 3: The color corresponds to how many thousands of dollars they 408 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 3: owe the cartels because it is big business trafficking human beings, 409 00:22:54,840 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: and these cartels have become massively wealthy as a result 410 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 3: of Biden's open borders, and when they arrived, most of 411 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 3: the people here still owe thousands of dollars to the cartels. 412 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 3: And so the teenage boys get sent to every city 413 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 3: in America, and they're working for the cartels and committing 414 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 3: crimes in your city wherever you are. You might think 415 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 3: you're not in a border city where you are, because 416 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 3: the Biden administration is sending illegal immigrants to every city 417 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 3: in America, and the boys are often committing crimes in 418 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 3: those cities to pay off their debts to the cartels. 419 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 3: And the girls, thousands upon thousands of the girls find 420 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 3: themselves trapped in sex slavery, and it's a living hell. 421 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 3: They're putting the forced prostitution until they can pay back 422 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 3: what they owe. And this is often thirteen, fourteen, fifteen 423 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 3: year old girls. It is truly, this is modern day slavery. 424 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 3: Then when I look at these wristbands, I see leg 425 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 3: irons from the days of slavery, and the Left does 426 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 3: not care. Look, what the book Unwoke explains is that 427 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 3: Mark's sister about power, and it walks through If you 428 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 3: look at communist countries across the world, they routinely produce 429 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 3: death and suffering and torture and concentration camps and misery 430 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 3: and poverty, and the left doesn't care. These open borders 431 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 3: are about Democrats flooding this country with what they view 432 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 3: will be future Democrat voters. And if a bunch of 433 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 3: children have to be sexually assaulted, if women have to 434 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 3: be raped, if people have to die, if one hundred 435 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 3: thousand people have to die of drug overdoses, to the 436 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 3: cultural Marxists, that's a perfectly acceptable cost, because what matters 437 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 3: to them is power. But the beauty of the beauty 438 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 3: of this book is it explains what their kryptonite is, 439 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 3: which is they can't defend their policies. Policies are wildly unpopular. 440 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 3: They rely on censorship and silence and hiding it. It's 441 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 3: why Joe Biden, Kamala Harris don't go to the border. 442 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 3: You can't defend what's happening there. They rely on control, 443 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 3: which means things like your s oh Ben, things like 444 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 3: our podcast Verdict. It means things like Elon Musk, buying Twitter. 445 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 3: Finding ways to shine a light and tell the truth 446 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 3: is one of the critical ways we defeat the cultural Marxist. 447 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: Final question for you, and this is something that is 448 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: near and dear to your heart. Especially something in the 449 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: book on Woke How to Defeat Culture Marxism in America, 450 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: you talk about the attack on our court system by 451 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: the left and also our Supreme Court and have a 452 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 1: very significant warning about that. 453 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 3: Well, that's right. Look, the last wants to destroy our 454 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 3: Supreme Court. It's the one institution at the national level 455 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 3: as they don't control. They have a smear campaign against 456 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 3: Justice Thomas in particular. And actually, Ben, you're in my 457 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 3: episode of Verdict today, the brand new podcast that came 458 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 3: out today, we discuss the smear campaign from the Democrats 459 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 3: trying to destroy Justice Thomas and that fundamentally is an 460 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 3: assault on the Bill of Rights and our constitutional rights. 461 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: But I'll tell you something and let's send us some 462 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 3: good news, which is the book Unwoke.
