1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: So this is going to be really fun for me.

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: As many of you know, Senator Ted Cruz and I

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: do a podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz three days a week.

4
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: But he is my guest on my podcast, The Ben

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: Ferguson Podcasts about his new book that is out. It

6
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 1: is a book, Unwoke, that is about what is destroying

7
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: this country and he calls out the Biden administration on

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: border security, he calls out the left on what they're

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: doing on college campuses. He talks about what happened with

10
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: COVID and the lockdowns. It's an amazing book and so

11
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: it's a pleasure to have senter Ted Cruz as my guest,

12
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: my co host on my podcast right now. Senator, it's

13
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: a pleasure to have you on live on this show.

14
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 1: You are on book promo tour in New York City

15
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: this morning. You are on a Levin Life Liberty and Levin,

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: and we love having you obviously to talk about this book.

17
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: For people that are looking for a great Christmas gift,

18
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: grab the book if you just want to read a

19
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: book book.

20
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: And I love how they describe it online.

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: It says Ted Cruz delivers a realistic battle plan for

22
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: defeating the woke assault on America. That's what inspired you

23
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: to write this book is really a battle plan of Okay,

24
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: the left has gone crazy. We have many that are

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: taking over not just government agencies, but our universities are schools.

26
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: They're trying to go into Marxism and socialism. How do

27
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 1: we get back from the brink of that? And that's

28
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: what inspired you to write a book that's three hundred

29
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: and eighty three pages long. It is a thick book,

30
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 1: one of the thickest ones you've ever written.

31
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 3: Well, Ben, that's right, good morning. It's great to be

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 3: with you. It's great to be with you in a

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 3: venue other than a verdict, which which you and I

34
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 3: do three days a week, and we both we both

35
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 3: have these conversations a lot. Look the book on Woke,

36
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: I wrote because the world has gone insane, and every

37
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 3: one of us knows that we're watching the radical extremes,

38
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: the extreme left that has seized every major institution in America.

39
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: And so I wrote this book to do a couple

40
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 3: of things. Number One, to explain how and why that happened.

41
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,679
Speaker 3: What on earth? Who would have envisioned a world where

42
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 3: corporate America, big business becomes the economic enforcer for the

43
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: hard left, where big tech censors what you do say online,

44
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 3: Where where NFL players refuse to stand for the national anthem,

45
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 3: where they teach five and six year olds in schools

46
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 3: that that little boys can become girls and little girls

47
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 3: can become boys. This is extreme, and it's not an act.

48
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 3: How it happens. And then number two, it lays out

49
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: a battle plan for how we fight back, how we

50
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 3: defeat the cultural Marxism in America, and and it lays

51
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: out specific concrete steps we can take to take our

52
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 3: country back, because if we don't do it, we're gonna

53
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 3: lose our nation. And we've got to pull it back.

54
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: From the extreme you mentioned taking our country back and

55
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: pulling us back. There was some very encouraging poll numbers

56
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: that came out this morning, and I want to get

57
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: your reaction this because it's obviously great news. If you're

58
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: a conservative, your favorite Capitol Hill reporter, I save this

59
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: just for you. Senator Manny Raju had this bleak report

60
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: this morning about how bad the new poll numbers are

61
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: for Democrats, specifically Joe Biden listened.

62
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 4: One year from today, America will be going to the

63
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 4: polls to choose a President, and there are alarm bells

64
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 4: going off inside the White House this morning. There are

65
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 4: three big polls out about the race for the White House,

66
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,839
Speaker 4: and none of it is good for Joe Biden. Race

67
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 4: for president is decided state by state, not nationally, so

68
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 4: this morning we want to focus on a series of

69
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 4: battleground state polls for The New York Times. In Nevada,

70
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 4: Trump leaves by ten, leads by six in Georgia, five

71
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 4: in Arizona, five in Michigan, and four in Pennsylvania. Biden

72
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 4: has just a narrow two point in Wisconsin. Now, Biden

73
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 4: won all six of those states in twenty twenty and

74
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 4: likely needs to win at least four of them to

75
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 4: be re elected. And if you dig a little deeper

76
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 4: into the poll, things look even bleaker. Voters in these

77
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 4: six states save Biden's policies have hurt them personally, and

78
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 4: those numbers are flipped when you ask about Trump. Most

79
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 4: Saint Trump's policies have helped them personally. And then there

80
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 4: are huge cracks in the coalition that won Biden the

81
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: White House in twenty twenty. Yes, he's leading among those demographics,

82
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 4: but not by nearly as much as he needs to

83
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 4: be he's ahead of Trump among young voters in these

84
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: battleground states by one point. Trump wins twenty two percent

85
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: of black voters, which would be a historically huge measure

86
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 4: for a Republican, and the margins are small for Biden

87
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 4: among Hispanics and suburban voters.

88
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: Now, sentater, you hear that, and it's just like rapture

89
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: alert number one, Manu Raju actually giving you poll numbers

90
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: telling you alarm bells are going off inside the White

91
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: House this morning. One year way, this is I think

92
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: massive numbers, not just for for Trump, but for conservative ideas, saying,

93
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: all right, we went to this socialism and that's what

94
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: the Biden administration has been doing, and we went to

95
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: this extreme woke agenda and now it's turning American families.

96
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: These numbers are spelled horrific news for Democrats.

97
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 3: Well, look, that's exactly right. I have several thoughts. Number one,

98
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: it's kind of amusing listening to see an inn put

99
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 3: against reporter on air where he's practically crying he's so

100
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: unhappy with those poll numbers because it is bad news. Listen,

101
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 3: the Biden agenda is a train wreck. It is a mess.

102
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 3: That the classic question for any election is are you

103
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 3: better off than you were four years ago? And for

104
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 3: almost any voter in the United Statess, the answer is

105
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 3: hell no, Like for everyone between inflation and crime and

106
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 3: chaos at our southern border, not to mention two wars

107
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 3: across the globe at America at greater jeopardy than we've

108
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 3: ever seen in our lifetimes, the answer unless you are

109
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 3: a an international drug dealer or human trafficker, in which

110
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 3: case the answer is yes, your life is much better

111
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 3: today than it was four years ago, and you ought

112
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 3: to vote for Joe Biden. You're not a citizen, but

113
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 3: who cares. He wants illegals to vote, so that's fine.

114
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 3: But unless you're a drug cartel, the answer for everyone

115
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 3: else is no. Everything else has gotten crappier. And so

116
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 3: I think those poll numbers show that the Biden record

117
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 3: is a train wreck and people want to get back

118
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 3: to common sense policies that work. I also think those

119
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: poll numbers are sending off alarm bells. We saw David

120
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 3: Axelrod Barack Obama's right hand publicly urging Biden to drop

121
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 3: out of the race. I think Dems are panicking, and Ben,

122
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 3: you and I broke the news three months ago on

123
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 3: an episode of our podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz that

124
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 3: the odds keep rising every day that the Democrats will

125
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 3: jettison Joe Biden and try to parachute in Michelle Obama

126
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 3: at the last minute. And I got to say, with

127
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 3: these poll numbers and an axl Rod coming out public,

128
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 3: those odds continue to rise every day.

129
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: All right, let's dive into that, because this is I

130
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: think part of what you talk about in your book

131
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: is the Democratic Party has gotten so extreme. They're coming

132
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: after parents, They're coming after your kids at universities and

133
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: public schools. They tried to push this transgenderism down our

134
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: throats and say, if you don't agree with it, we'll

135
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: try to ruin your business, ruin your family, ruin any

136
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: you know, school, or anybody that disagrees with us, We'll

137
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: try to kick you out of office. You've got Hollywood

138
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: that's all in on this. And then you go back

139
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: to what you just mentioned. This is a moment where

140
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: Democrats do you think they believe maybe they went too

141
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: far and they got a dial it back and they've

142
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: lost the country because they put all this and implement

143
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: it and now it's such a disaster on the average

144
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: American family. And if they do parachute in Michelle Obama,

145
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: to be clear, she's just as bad, if not worse,

146
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: than Joe Biden. She's a woke person. She's a Marxist

147
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: as socialist. However you want to describe her with policies,

148
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: that's what Obama is as well. But if they parachute

149
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: her in, it's about likability, right, She'll come out as

150
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: a mom, She'll say she once this for the country,

151
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,119
Speaker 1: and they parachute her into the convention and she doesn't

152
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: even have to talk policies. It's just likability, like hey

153
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: do you like Oprah? Do you not like Oprah? It's like,

154
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: hey do you like miche Obama? Do you not like

155
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: Michelle Obamba? And then it's only what three month campaign?

156
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: It would be a scary yet brilliant move.

157
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 3: It would be a very scary move. And listen, to

158
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 3: be clear, you know you asked our Dems getting nervous

159
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 3: they've gone too far left. I got to say, as

160
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 3: they are, I see no evidence of it. The Democrats

161
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 3: I serve with in the Senate, they're still much more

162
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 3: afraid of being primary from the left than they are

163
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 3: of losing the general election, and it's because the media

164
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: has been corrupted. So this book Unwoke What exams how

165
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 3: this happened. And it starts with the universities, because Marxists

166
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 3: always start by going after our kids. The first chapter

167
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 3: in the book is entitled Universities the Wuhan Lab, the

168
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 3: Wuhan Lab of the woke virus. And that is because

169
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 3: universities are where the woke virus was created. It's where

170
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: it mutated, it's where it spread. And the cultural Marxists,

171
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,359
Speaker 3: beginning in the sixties and seventies, began seizing the universities

172
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 3: and raising up these campus radicals. But from there it

173
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 3: spread to every other institution. So each chapter of the

174
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 3: book focuses on a different American institution that the cultural

175
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 3: Marxists have seen. So it goes from the universities to

176
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 3: K through twelve education, to journalism to big business, to

177
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 3: big tech, to entertainment including movies and TV and music

178
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 3: and sports, to science. Every one of these one after

179
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 3: the other after the other. The cultural Marxist succeeds. And

180
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: and so you ask, are the Democrats worried they've gone

181
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 3: too far left? I don't think they are, because journalism

182
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 3: has been corrupted, So CNN no longer views its role

183
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 3: as being an actual journalist, as reporting on both sides.

184
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 3: They are instead explicitly propaganda's. They are provda. They are

185
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 3: advocating a view which is the left wing of the

186
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 3: Democrat Party. And and so Democrats are incentivized to go

187
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 3: hard left because they will never be called out out

188
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 3: by the corporate media for doing it. And and so

189
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 3: what this book lays out our strategies to fight back,

190
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 3: how we can turn it around.

191
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about this election coming up. What do

192
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: you think the top issue is going to be for

193
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: the average American nationwide or the top two? Is it

194
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: going to be the economy stupid? Is it going to

195
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: be this this agenda that in the in the extreme

196
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: of the socialism or is it going to be like, hey,

197
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: cognitive decline of Joe Biden.

198
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 3: So, look, we're a year out, and so it's always

199
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 3: hard to predict with certainty where things will be in

200
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 3: a year because there will be events in the world

201
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 3: that we can't predict right now. But the question in

202
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 3: every election is are you better off now than you

203
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 3: were four years ago? And perennially the top issue there

204
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,839
Speaker 3: is the economy, and inflation out of control, the cost

205
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 3: of living. People are hurting hard. It's more expensive to

206
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 3: put food on your table. It's more expensive to run

207
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: the air conditioning and heat. It's much more expensive to

208
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 3: fill your car truck with gas. That is impacting people

209
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 3: in a very real sense. There's also safety and security.

210
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 3: Crime is skyrocketed. Everywhere. People feel unsafe. They feel unsafe

211
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 3: for their kids. Their kids are under assault. The chaos

212
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 3: of illegal immigration has become real and personal. Eight million

213
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 3: people crossing illegally into this country. They're now flooding every city.

214
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 3: When you've got the Democrat Mayor of New York saying

215
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 3: illegal immigration is destroying New York City, you know it

216
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: has gotten bad. And then on foreign policy, Look, where

217
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 3: foreign policy really matters is when people again don't feel

218
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: safe and secure, when they feel like their families are threatened.

219
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 3: Think about it. Three years ago, Joe Biden inherited peace

220
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 3: and prosperity. In just under three years, with Joe Biden's

221
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 3: weak and ineffective leadership, we now have the largest land

222
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 3: war in Europe since World War Two and the worst

223
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 3: attack on Israel in fifty years. We've got war in

224
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 3: the Middle East, and by the way campus radicals on

225
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 3: campus threatening Jewish students with violence. Anyone looking at the

226
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 3: world says, this is a mess. And I think all

227
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 3: of those are going to be major issues come November.

228
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: Let's also talk about this, what's happening in Israel. And

229
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: I want to get into this because there's been this,

230
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: I would argue woke ideology that you don't stand with Israel.

231
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: It's now become seeming a part of bigger part of

232
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party.

233
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 2: Obviously the squad.

234
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: I never could have imagined a day that innocent people

235
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: could be butchered this way, babies beheaded, infants beheaded, put

236
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: in ovens by hamas. And yet there's a significant portion

237
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party that you serve with in Congress

238
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: that are behind them. Is that part of the unwoke agenda?

239
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: Are the woke agenda the Democratic Party that you're warning

240
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 1: about in the book.

241
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 3: It very much is, you know, you know, a couple

242
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 3: of weeks ago, I was sitting down with a very

243
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 3: successful tech entrepreneur who's historically been quite left a center,

244
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 3: and he was expressing enormous dismay at the extreme anti

245
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 3: semitism and hatred of Israel that is manifesting number one

246
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 3: in the Democrat Party in Congress with the squad and

247
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 3: the viciousness we're seeing, but number two on college campuses.

248
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 3: And he was saying, where do this comfort? And I

249
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 3: explained it, you know, really in terms of the book Unwoke.

250
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: You know, it describes so Marxism, which derives obviously from

251
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 3: the teachings of Karl Marx. He frames the world in

252
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 3: terms of an inevitable conflict, and Marx broke it down

253
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 3: on socioeconomic terms. It's a conflict between the oppressors and

254
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 3: the victims. The oppressors, in Marx's worldview are the owners

255
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 3: of capital and the victims of the proletariat, the workers.

256
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 3: And Marxist solution is a violent overthrow, a revolution of

257
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 3: the proletariat, the workers, seizing the capital and the means

258
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 3: of production, and relying on government to take it forcibly

259
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 3: from from the oppressors and give it to the victims.

260
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 3: That's plain vanilla Marxism. That's who who burrowed into college

261
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 3: campuses starting in the sixties and seventies. What the cultural

262
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 3: Marxist have done is taken that Marxist worldview and they've

263
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 3: applied it to cultures so everything is an inevitable battle

264
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 3: between oppressors and victims. And their solution to everything is

265
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 3: force is if you do not comply, they will make

266
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: you comply. They will attack and undermine the oppressors and

267
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 3: forcibly benefit the victims. And I explain. Look, the reason

268
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 3: the left is so viciously anti Semitic is in the

269
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 3: cultural Marxist worldview, Jews are coded as oppressors. When these

270
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 3: Marxists look at Israel, they see the Israelis as oppressors

271
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 3: and the Palestinians are coded as victims. And once you

272
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 3: start with that worldview, the only acceptable leftist perspective is

273
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 3: that you should have a violent revolution of the victims,

274
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 3: the Palestinians against the oppressors and forcibly take from the

275
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 3: oppressors and redistribute to the victims. And that's why so

276
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 3: many on the left are not condemning the horrific attacks

277
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 3: and atrocities from Hamas because they're cheering them on. Look.

278
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 3: Rashida Talib, a member of Congress member of the Squad,

279
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: tweeted out the racist slogan of Amas from the river

280
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 3: to the sea. Now what that means is from the

281
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 3: Jordan River all the way to the sea. It means

282
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 3: annihilate all of Israel, kill every Jew. It is a

283
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 3: call to genocide. And that's what an elected, current sitting

284
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 3: Democrat member of Congress is saying to the world.

285
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: All right, let me tell you real quick about an

00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: or nine seven to Patriot. Senator, you were just at

312
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 1: the southern border. And I think one of the most

313
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: horrific consequences of this woke ideology is the kumbaiism, which is, oh,

314
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: we don't really need to have border security. That's somehow inhumane.

315
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: We don't really need to have laws when it comes

316
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: to legal immigration, because you know, who are we to

317
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: decide that we should have a secure border or who

318
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 1: should or shouldn't come into this country and we should

319
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 1: just be loving and open and welcoming. We're a sanctuary city.

320
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 1: We love every illegal immigrant. Come to New York City,

321
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: come to San Francisco, come to La You had people

322
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: campaigning just a couple of years ago, including New York

323
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: Mayor Adams on this and saying come to our cities

324
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: and we will love you and accept you. In this

325
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: woke kumbaiism, it's not just a disaster on our economy.

326
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: It's a disaster now from a national security standpoint.

327
00:18:58,560 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 2: And you witnessed.

328
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: The atrocities that are happening because of this woke agenda.

329
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 3: Well, that's exactly right. I was down on our southern

330
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 3: border two weeks ago and I went out on midnight

331
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,239
Speaker 3: patrol with the border patrol agents, and within minutes you

332
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 3: encounter groups of illegal aliens. We encountered one group that

333
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 3: had about twenty or twenty five, mostly women and children.

334
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 3: It had young teenagers, it had me. There was a

335
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 3: thirteen year old girl who was unaccompanied. She had no

336
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 3: family members with her. There was a fifteen year old

337
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 3: boy who was unaccompanied. There was a sixteen year old

338
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 3: girl who was unaccompanied. They all said they were coming

339
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 3: to America to meet their too, and Teo is of

340
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 3: course Spanish for uncle. And yet when you question them

341
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 3: about their TEO, they're like, oh, no, no, no, my to

342
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 3: doesn't know I'm coming. They just had a phone number,

343
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 3: and tragically, the more we talked to them and the

344
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 3: more it became clear that these uncles were made up

345
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 3: and that these kids, these kids are being trafficked. And

346
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 3: I got to say it was particularly horrific. There was

347
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 3: a ten year old girl with an adult man who

348
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 3: said he was her father, and she said he was

349
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 3: her father, and it was obvious he was not her father.

350
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 3: She was terrified. The look of terror in her face

351
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 3: was haunting. And he had his arm around her, but

352
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 3: not in a gentle caress like a father, but firmly

353
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 3: holding her right where she was so she couldn't move.

354
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 3: And this is a pattern we're saying a lot. You know,

355
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 3: under the Trump administration, when an adult man would show

356
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 3: up with a child and can't claim to be the

357
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 3: father of the child, they would DNA test them both

358
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 3: and they found about thirty percent of them were not

359
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 3: related at all. And because the policies favor of family

360
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 3: coming in, the cartels literally rent children to adult men

361
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 3: who want to come ilegally into this country because they

362
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 3: had processed faster. Well. One of the very first things

363
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 3: Joe Biden did when he came in is stopped the

364
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 3: DNA testing and give me any reasonable, irrational justification for

365
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 3: stopping the testing, and what was sick that little girl.

366
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 3: All of these kids very likely had been abused in

367
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 3: the travel to the United States when they were being

368
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 3: trafficked by human traffickers and vicious drug cartels. But many

369
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 3: of these kids were headed for a life where they

370
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: can we're going to get continue to be in sex slavery.

371
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 3: And I got to say the border patrol is frustrated

372
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 3: because the Biden administration won't let them do anything about it.

373
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 3: They're required to just pross them, process them, and let

374
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 3: them go. And the numbers are now utterly indefensible. And

375
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 3: I got to tell you the radical left does not care.

376
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: You also talk about not just this idea that they

377
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: want an open border, but they want to fundamentally change

378
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: this country through illegal immigration. And yes, Joe Biden refuses

379
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: to really go down there look at the border. Democrats

380
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 1: refuse to go down there because I think if they

381
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: saw it, there has to be a moment there where

382
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: you say, Okay, this policy is wrong. It's being exploited.

383
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 1: They're making money off of human trafficking. And talk about

384
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: the wristbands and what you see and the trees where

385
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: they literally like prizes. They throw the underwear of young

386
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: girls up in these trees just to taunt the US

387
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: border patrol.

388
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 3: Look, those are both realities. If you go down to

389
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 3: the southern border, you see colored wristbands just laying in

390
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 3: the grass by the river. Because virtually every illegal alien

391
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 3: comes into this country. Where's one of those colored wristbands.

392
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 3: The color corresponds to how many thousands of dollars they

393
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 3: owe the cartels, because it is big business trafficking human beings,

394
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 3: and these cartels have become massively wealthy as a result

395
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 3: of Biden's open borders, and when they arrived, most of

396
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 3: the people here still owe thousands of dollars to the cartels.

397
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 3: And so the teenage boys get sent to every city

398
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 3: in America and they're working for the cartels and committing

399
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 3: crimes in your city. Wherever you are. You might think

400
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 3: you're not in a border city, Well you are, because

401
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 3: the Biden administration is sending illegal immigrants to every city

402
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 3: in America, and the boys are often committing crimes in

403
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 3: those cities to pay off their debts to the cartels.

404
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 3: And the girls, thousands upon thousands of the girls find

405
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 3: themselves trapped in sex slavery, and it's a living hell.

406
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 3: They're putting the forced prostitution until they can pay back

407
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 3: what they owe, and this is often thirteen, fourteen, fifteen

408
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 3: year old girls. It is truly this is modern day slavery.

409
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 3: Then when I look at these wristbands, I see leg

410
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 3: irons from the days of slavery, and the Left does

411
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 3: not care. Look, what the book Unwoke explains is that

412
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 3: Mark's sister about power, and it walks through If you

413
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 3: look at communist countries across the world, they routinely produce

414
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 3: death and suffering and torture and concentration camps and misery

415
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 3: and poverty, and the left doesn't care. These open borders

416
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 3: are about Democrats flooding this country with what they view

417
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 3: will be future Democrat voters. And if a bunch of

418
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 3: children have to be sexually assaulted, if women have to

419
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 3: be rate, if people have to die, if one hundred

420
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 3: thousand people have to die of drug overdoses, to the

421
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 3: cultural Marxist, that's a perfectly acceptable cost, because what matters

422
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 3: to them is power. But the beauty of the beauty

423
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 3: of this book is it explains what their kryptonite is,

424
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 3: which is they can't defend their policies. The policies are

425
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 3: wildly unpopular. They rely on censorship and silence and hiding it.

426
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 3: It's why Joe Biden, Tamala Harris don't go to the border.

427
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 3: You can't defend what's happening there. They rely on control,

428
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 3: which means things like your show, Ben, things like our

429
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 3: podcast Verdict. It means things like Elon Musk buying Twitter.

430
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 3: Finding ways to shine a light and tell the truth

431
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 3: is one of the critical ways we defeat the cultural.

432
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: Marxist Final question for you, and this is something that

433
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: is near and dear to your heart, especially something in

434
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: the book on Woke How to Defeat Culture Marxism in America.

435
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: You talk about the attack on our court system by

436
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: the left and also so our Supreme Court, and have

437
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: a very significant warning about that.

438
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 3: Well, that's right. Look, the last wants to destroy our

439
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 3: Supreme Court. It's the one institution at the national level

440
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 3: as they don't control. They have a smear campaign against

441
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 3: Justice Thomas in particular. And actually, Ben, you're in my

442
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 3: episode of Verdict today, the brand new podcast that came

443
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 3: out today. We discuss the smear campaign from the Democrats

444
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,439
Speaker 3: trying to destroy Justice Thomas and that fundamentally is an

445
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 3: assault on the Bill of Rights and our constitutional rights.

446
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you something and let's send us some

447
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: good news, which is the book Unwoke. It is officially

448
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 3: released tomorrow and it is already on the Amazon bestseller list.

449
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 3: It is number one and number two and number three

450
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 3: for political bestseller, so it's the top three, the hardcovers

451
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 3: number one, the audio books number two, the kindle versions

452
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 3: number three, So that is encouraging. People want to know

453
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 3: what the hell is happening and how do we defeat it.

454
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 3: But overall, in terms of all books, not just politics,

455
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 3: we're number four. So we just beat Barbara streisand today

456
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 3: she's right below us.

457
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 2: I love that, I'll tell you.

458
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, Britney Spears is still above us at number one,

459
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 3: and so Ben, we need to fix that. I actually

460
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 3: have my team going out and buying me some butcher

461
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 3: knives because I'm gonna start dancing with knives. We gotta

462
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 3: beat Brittany. And so let me just ask your listeners,

463
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 3: go right now to Amazon and buy Unwoke. How to
