New cases of COVID slow to the lowest level in a year. The CDC releases guidelines for vaccinated Americans. New Yorkers move to impeach Andrew Cuomo. The canceled culture goes after Looney Tunes. New study finds older adults less stressed, then millennials. Also ahead. We'll run down some of the cancel victims. But first, the number of Americans affected with COVID increased by just 1.5% last week, the slowest spread since the pandemic started last March. About two million vaccines are being administered every day. 10% of the population in the USA has already received two doses. Another 20% the first shot. The center is for disease control, releasing new guidelines for vaccinated Americans. Folks can safely gather in small groups without face coverings or social distancing. Doctors still urging everyone to wear masks in public or around vulnerable people, the elderly, the ill. It is still unknown if the vaxed folks
Starting point is 00:01:21 can transfer the COVID to others. Group of Republicans in New York State moving to impeach Governor Cuomo, the lawmakers claim the top Democrat is unable to govern because of multiple investigations. Members of Cuomo's own party, including Hillary Clinton and Bill de Blasio, have already urged the governor to resign, which he will not. Warner Brothers scrubbing cartoon skunk Pepe Lepew from a new movie featuring NBA star LeBron James. Cancellation comes 48 hours after a columnist for the New York. Times accused Pepe of, quote, normalizing rape culture, unquote. The animated skunk routinely schemes to marry a neighboring cat, and this, of course, is offensive to the people at
Starting point is 00:02:15 the New York Times. A new study finds older people are happier and more relaxed than millennials and those working at the times. Sixty-nine percent of adults over the age of 55, identify as generally happy. That number drops to just 27% for those in their 30s. The biggest factor, finances, 6 and 10 millennials say they battle anxiety on a daily basis. I guess that would include Megan Markle. In a moment, cancel madness. Who's on the chopping block? Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford

We have to cancel the cancel culture, right? As millions of Americans emerge from the COVID shutdown, another part of our society is falling apart. The radical left is ramping up attacks on American history, knowing there is little formal
Starting point is 00:04:17 opposition these days. The corrupt media sympathizes with radically changing the USA, and so does apparently the Democratic Party. The greatest weapon in the fight to destroy American tradition is the cancel culture. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google, Amazon, eBay, and others. now silencing some people who disagree with liberal orthodoxy. That includes conservatives, religious Americans, Trump supporters, and others considered not woke enough by some social media executives. Well, the canceled culture has already affected Kermit the Frog, Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben's Rice, Eskimo Pies, landa legs butter, gone with the wind, the Washington Redskins, Looney Tunes, Rudolph the Red Nose
Starting point is 00:05:15 Reindeer, and now Dr. Seuss. That's right. Six books from the children's author are being discontinued because they contain races, content, and stereotypes. Dr. Seuss was born in 1903. The material, even banned from eBay, where you can still find copies of, ready? Adolf Hitler's Mine Kampf and the Communist Manifesto. But Dr. Seuss, he has to go. Also found on eBay, the works of Chinese dictator Mao Zedong. Here's a quote from Mao. To read too many books is harmful.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Burn the books and bury the scholars. Thank you, Mazay Tong. Again, you can find him on eBay. Taking a cue from the Chairman's Revolution, movements now exist all over America to eliminate historical figures from the public arena. Officials in San Francisco, Portland, Oregon, Seattle, and Chicago moving to rename schools and parks honoring George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Abraham, Lincoln, and others. Freedom of thought and expression can now lead to your own personal destruction. So if you understand history, you might realize that the cancel hysteria we are seeing right this
Starting point is 00:06:39 minute really began in Russia and then later in the 20th century spread to Germany. In the early 1930s, Hitler's National Socialist Party could not get more than 40% of German people to vote for it. So the Nazis decided to silence opposition by Canada. canceling opponents in local governments, the press, and in the universities. The Nazis used a paramilitary organization called the SA to do this, often violently. Now, that strategy will not happen in America because there are too many safeguards in place. The attacks now, in our country, take place online. Zellets no longer have to burn books, just ban them on social media.
Starting point is 00:07:29 It may seem trivial to vanquish Mr. Potato Head or Kermit the Frog, but the drive to destroy America's traditions and entertainment is really not about toys or cartoons. It's an opportunity for progressive activists to reshape the entire country. I'm Bill O'Reilly and I approve the message by writing it. In a moment, something you might not know.

Starting point is 00:08:58 of us. Own at least one dog, including me. While many enjoy a man's or a woman's got to be PC, best friend for companionship, others use dogs for their intelligence from hunting ducks to defending your home. These specific pups lead the pack. Starting with the border collie, they're the fastest learners of all the breeds, picking up new commands in five seconds. They're also great at hurting sheep or cows if you need that service. Next up, poodles, don't let the silly haircuts fool you in the ribbons. These dogs are amazing hunters. They originated in the Alps to grab geese from the water. The locals over there called them Pudelhund, German for splashing dog. The third smartest breed is number one with American families, the Labrador Retriever. As a

They can even hold an egg in their mouth without cracking the shell. I can't do that. Now, some dogs are so smart, they're given some pretty unique jobs. Doberman pinchers were originally bred to protect police officers, golden retrievers, are experts at detecting narcotics and certain cancers inside the body. Springer Spaniels, help hunters find truffles. And here's something else you might not know. The COVID pandemic is having a major impact on America's pet industry.
