When you were little, you had braced some of course of recrace, always in trying to negotiate and to make a change.

The appell Negoti TITT T-D you can't to renewing with this instinct that, with without

operation gratite, no amount of minimum, and no free mensuel. You're made for negotiate,

and the TD is there for you help you don't want to miss a second of this podcast.

We talk about critical race theory with people who are actually doing something about it. Senator Josh Hawley is

on to talk about high tech and its tyranny and so much more on today's podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. I did a Wednesday night special based on the three biggest lies of race in America. Where we're going is just phenomenally bad. I mean, it's historically bad. You can find the examples of what we're doing. at the beginning of every, every genocidal movement in the world. Now, it doesn't have to end that way, but this is the way they started.

So we were talking about race and in education, et cetera, et cetera, and Mark Robinson is a guy who you know, I think, you've heard before. Let me play a clip of where you might know him from. This is a YouTube clip. He's standing in front of, I think it was his city council. Listen. What I really came down here for is this. I've heard a whole lot of people in here talking tonight about this group and that group and domestic violence and blacks. These minorities and that minority. What I want to know is when are you all going to start standing up for the majority? And here's who the majority is. I'm the majority. I'm a law-abiding citizen who's never shot anybody, never committed a serious crime, never committed a felony. I've never done anything like that. But it's seems like every time we have one of these shootings. Nobody wants to blame, put the blame where it goes,

which is at the shooter's feet. You want to put it at my feet. You want to turn around and restrict my right, constitutional right that's spelled out in black and white. You want to restrict my right to buy a firearm and protect myself from some of the very people you're talking about in here tonight. It's ridiculous.

I don't think Rod Serling could come up with a better script. It does not make any sense. The law-abiding citizens of this community and many communities around this country, we're the first ones taxed and the last ones considered and the first ones punished when things like this happens. Because our rights are the ones that are being taken away. That's the reason why. This was an amazing viral video. Mark, in case you lost track of him, as I did, has now become the lieutenant governor of North Carolina. Carolina. He was a factory worker when he gave that speech a couple of years ago. He's now the

lieutenant governor of North Carolina. Mark, welcome to the program. How are you, sir? Hey, Glenn. Thank you for having me here again. It's a pleasure. You bet. I am so impressed with you. But let me just pretend I don't know. And see if you could explain to those listeners who don't know what a lieutenant governor actually does. Could you tell me that? the responsibilities? I am, well, actually, I'm the president of the Senate. That's my number one responsibility. I preside over the Senate.

It's a member of the state school board. I sit on the Energy Commission. I said, I advantage you to. Man, I don't know if you're a religious guy, but divine providence, I think, played a role in finding you. So let's talk about what you're doing in the schools as, you know, a voting member of the school board. you are addressing indoctrination which is happening all across the country and parents some parents

I am really concerned about this and we don't really know what to do because sometimes we had in our own community here right down the street we had two council members and and you know directors of the school board arrested because they were hiding the information on critical race. What are you doing in North Carolina that we should know about? Something that I've known about for years. My children experienced it when they were in high school and seen it firsthand at the university level.

I attended the university for the most part as an adult, and I saw it a great deal when I was attending the university. And so we know it's a problem. And all throughout our campaign, we heard about it from parents and teachers all across the state. And so the one thing that folks always push back against us and say,

well, where's your proof that this exists? Well, we are in the process now proving that. We start a task force here in North Carolina in our office called a fact. In fact, stands for fairness and accountability in the classroom for teachers and students. And what is, what it's aimed at doing is giving people who have been a victim

of indoctrination in the classroom or at schools, no matter what their position, may be, whether they be a principal, whether they be a teacher, whether they be a student, whether they be a parent, their complaints. We're North Carolina issue. This is a national issue. And for my money, it has become a national crisis because we are no longer teaching our children what they need to learn in the classroom to be successful outside of the classroom. We have got to get education back into the business of education and how it would be indoctrination. And so this is the first step in doing that.

we're only teaching them how to be activists we're not teaching them to be productive members of society just activists that's it absolutely uh so you have who's on this board this fax board and and how i mean because people are afraid to come out and say anything i know several parents that don't want to say anything because they're afraid their students are going to get hassled you know, by the teacher or in grades or whatever. That happens in college all the time. Students are afraid to disagree because there is no real freedom of speech and thought in the place where it's supposed to happen most definitely.

It's important that it happens in education. People that are afraid to speak out. We have 12 people on our board, 12 very capable of things, and have been fighting it, some of them, for a number of years. But what I like to try to remind people about being afraid, this. If you do not speak up against this tyranny now, it's not going to do you any good

in the future. You're still going to have to suffer the dreadful effects of this tyranny at some point. And I can guarantee you if we allow this tyranny to continue to exist, the price we will have to pay in the long term is going to be much steeper than the price we will have to pay

in the short term for standing up and bringing it to an end. So I'm encouraging people to speak up because there's going to be a price to pay either way. But again, That long-term price is going to be much more dreadful than the short. I would encourage anybody who's in state government or even local government to look at facts from North Carolina and just go to LTGov.NC.gov, and I'm sure you'll find it there. But I urge you to consider putting something together like this for your community. and you do have people from both sides and all sides on this committee that understand the problem,

so it's not just a right-wing thing, right? Absolutely. There are people absolutely tired of our schools being used for political purposes. We need, again, we need to get back to the business of teaching our children what they need to know in order to be successful outside the classroom to build businesses, to go into being doctors and lawyers, to be plumbers and all the great things that we need in our society. The classroom is not the place to push your views on people.

The classroom is a place where you need to make sure that's happened. Have you found a way or by listening to people on the left, I shouldn't say on the left, but think differently, how to talk to them about critical race theory, because I know lots of people are afraid of sitting down with somebody who they know, you know, voted for Biden is in with a lot of this stuff, to talk about critical race theory because it'll go right to racist. You know, it goes right there.

How do they, how are they approaching this? How do they view critical race theory in schools? A lot. Well, the thing that we have to understand, and again, this goes back to education itself. We have to go back and look in history and look at other ideologies that were pushed, that were detrimental to our society. If you go back and look at the racist ideologies that were pushed and demonize someone else

in order to raise someone else is a fallacy. We do not do that in this policy because it tells white people you are automatically left than because you are white. That's not what we're supposed to be doing. Any more than we're supposed to be telling people that they're left than because they're black. We need to be teaching all of our students

that you have equal worth and an equal say in this nation and that this racist idea that just did something terrible to someone else that is now your fault. You know, I like to say systems are not racist. We're taking care of the people and we need to make sure we allow the system where he doesn't allow us to do that.

And therefore, we need to make sure that it's not a part of what we teach in our schools. The lieutenant governor from North Carolina talking about facts, the facts program for school indoctrination or against school indoctrination. You can find more information at the website. LTGov.nc.com.

You can follow him at Mark Robbins. Mark Robin, N.C. Mark Robinson. Thank you so much. God bless you. You bet. By the way, there are other groups that, for instance, they're partnering with parents defending education,

and they are just trying to connect parents and teachers while taking aggressive legal measures to resist indoctrinations in our school. So you do have tools. And I urge you to get involved. Parents defending education. Or you can look up Mark Robinson if you're in North Carolina. Or in another state and you actually have an ability to start something in your state like this. Do it now.

The best of the Glenn Beck program. The loss of property rights, patent rights. Let's talk about the loss of your right to speak freely, to gather with people that you agree with, to petition the government. All of these things are going away. And a lot of them are going away because of what Senator Josh Holly calls the tyranny of big tech. We welcome the senator from Missouri to the program. Hello, Senator Holly. How are you, sir? I'm doing great. Thanks for having me.

You bet. You know, the news of the last couple of days has been how Facebook, Twitter, they're just going to continue to ban Donald Trump. And they're saying because he was part of that giant insurrection, the worst attack on our republic since the Civil War. Yeah, you know, I don't think that's why they're banning him. Go ahead. Yeah, well, why they're banning him is they don't like his speech, and they're banning them and can get by with it, Glenn, because they're monopolies. And all of their customers and consumers have nowhere else to go because there's no competition. So you think about, oh, my gosh, I don't like what Facebook's doing.

Where would I go? What platform would I go to that would be different than Facebook and have different rules? The answer is nowhere, because Facebook is in monopoly, and they are actively buying up competition and suppressing new entrants in the market, ditto with Twitter. We saw a parlor, a competitor to Twitter, tried to try to get off the ground earlier this year, and what happened back in January? Well, Twitter and Amazon and Apple and Google got together and canceled Parlor within the space of like 48 hours. So these are monopoly companies with monopoly power over speech, and we've got to do some about it. So one of the things, you've written a new book called The Tyranny of Big Tech, and I think this is the one thing.

I'm glad you're dealing with it. I mean, there's a lot of big talk in the Senate, but I don't see anybody actually going for the throat of people and doing anything, proposing anything that actually will change and release the chokehold they have. Part of it, I think, is because of money, but I think also part of it is they are so incredibly powerful because of the information that they have. Why is it we can't get our government to move on them?

Well, I think part of that is because big tech has purchased so much influence in Washington and on Capitol Hill. They have spent a decade or more purchasing lobbyist influence and think tank influence and academic influence and influence on congressional staffs in terms of staffers that they recruit to come join them. You know, it's really, it's really, really extraordinary. And you see how they really doubled down in this last election dumping money into the Biden Harris campaign. I mean, you talk about trying to buy access to the White House. These companies have done it. And that's one of the reason why the Democrats right now are delighted with the power of big tech. They love, they secretly love the monopoly status because these companies will censor in a way the government couldn't.

And the Democrats want them to do that and they want them to do more of it. They politic all the time for them to do more of it. And it is terribly frightening. I think they don't want Donald Trump back online because they know he can. draw a crowd. And you, you don't want anyone who can unite the other side. They're too busy dividing. You can't have somebody that can unite and bring a coalition that can actually stand against this, this movement from the left. Now, that's exactly right. It's an effort to silence, a big text part, an effort to silence

voices of opposition with whom they disagree and who represent a contrary view. You saw, you saw, You saw them do it back in the fall when they tried to suppress reporting on Hunter Biden and Joe Biden walking the New York post out of their account on Twitter, Facebook, not allowing the story to be circulated and distributed. I mean, you talk about a brazen intervention in a presidential election. I mean, trying to influence and stop the news during a presidential election. And then even more so in January, of course, where they de-platformed the former president, where they kicked bunches of conservatives off of Twitter and Facebook of these platforms, and where they canceled part. I mean, so this is real power, Glenn. This is monopoly power. And to your point about what we're going to do about it, we've got to break these companies up.

We cannot try and go along to get along. You've got to break these companies up. And you've also got to give American citizens the right to go to court and to sue these companies if they take action against them based on political viewpoint. That's my view. Give Americans the power to go to court, break up these companies. I'd like one more thing. They're making all this money because of all the information they're.

gathering on us. Who I am, what I do, belongs to me. Not to them. Just because they have given me a device that allows them to follow me, I really don't like the power that they have, following me, monitoring me, analyzing me, predicting me. No, thank you. I'd like to opt out on that. And if you want to sell my information as I opt in, you can do that and you'll get a slice of it, but so will I. That's right. And, you know, these companies, their business model is built on taking our data and our personal information without our consent.

To your point, Glenn, and then selling it or monetizing it without our permission. And without any say from us of any kind, and I agree with you 100%. Individuals ought to be able to control their own information. It is private property. It's our private property. In the same way, families, parents ought to be able to control their kids' information. You can use that companies track your kids around. They built dossiers in your kid.

I say this as a parent of three small children. You know, this is crazy, creepy stuff that they currently get by with. And we've got to stop it. We've got to give people control again over their own property, over their own data. So I'm very libertarian in my views of business. And I have really wrestled with two things. In the past, I have wrestled with the, quote, robber barons. Many of those guys were not robber barons.

Some of them were. And I've always wondered when you amass so much wealth and power, how do you stop that from affecting everyone or infecting everything? And the only way that I can come up with that I'm comfortable with is you cannot lobby laws. the law and the government must be completely separate and blind from corporations. But I don't think that's possible. How do you stop the, because these, I think you would agree with me, the people like Zuckerberg will be remembered as really bad robber barons,

taking from people, getting rich and then doing what they want in many times against the interest of the people. That's certainly how they're behaving. now, Glenn, there's no doubt about it. And I think when you look at American history where we draw the line, those of us especially who believe in free markets, who believe in free competition and who believe in capitalism, where we draw the line is to say, you know, we want people to be successful. You bet. We want businesses to be successful. Yes, we do. What we do not want to see, though, is a business amass a bunch of market power and then use it to suppress competition and use it to suppress innovation and use it to try and control the political process, which is what we we're seeing from these tech companies. That's, I think, where we need to draw the line. I mean, and my view is that breaking up monopolies reinforces the market because it introduces new competition. So I'd like to see more competition. I'd like to see more businesses. I'd like to see more choice for consumers out there. And if we had more competition, these guys would have less power. But right now, the amount of power they have is frightening. I will tell you that in

your book, you talk about the Apple App Store. And you're absolutely right. I remember the first time I wanted to put an app on there and I realized they take I can't even remember what it is some obscene amount of money like 30% of everything and you're like what and there's no negotiation they tell you exactly how the app has to run they tell you everything about your own business and I thought wow that's that's a company that's completely out of control and look how much money they're getting because they're the only option they're the only option is the Apple tax, the infamous Apple tax that you just referenced in your right. And what they also usually do is, you know, with your, let's say your app, for instance, Glenn, then they take all of your data about your customers. Yes. So Apple says, you can't give us everything, you know. Right. All of the info. It's crazy. It's really bad. So you, the name of the book, we're talking to Senator Josh Hawley about his new book, The Tyranny of Big Tech. It's my understanding that Simon and Schuster actually,

had this book and we can talk for hours about Simon and Schuster. I just ended my 10-year prison sentence with these people because they had a hostile takeover and they just eliminated any conservative in that company. But you had a contract with them on this book. What happened? Well, they canceled it. I mean, this is the book is all about how big tech is trying to control our politics and trying to control free speech. And that big tech. teamed up with these corporate publisher to try to cancel this very book. I mean, you talk about irony. But Simon & Schuster originally commissioned the book, and then in January, following January 6th, Simon Schuster turned around and said, oh, we're going to try to de-platform, Holly. We're going to

cancel this book. They accuse me of helping incite a riot at the United States Capitol, which is totally and 100% false. By the way, they know it's false. But what they did is bowed down to the big tech Twitter mob. You had a big Twitter, a Twitter, petition that started that said, D-platform Holly, cancel his book contract, take this to which silence him. And as Simon & Schuster got right in there with him,

you know, I'm grateful that there's still independent businesses and independent publishers in this company. So my book, it was not canceled. It's available now. And I just said,

Glenn, my view is this. With this cancel culture, you've got to go out and take a stand and refuse to be canceled. And that's what I said at the time. I am not going to go along with this. I refuse to be cowed. I refuse to be silenced.

I refuse to be canceled. I refuse to be canceled. canceled. I'm going to keep speaking whatever forum I can, and I'm glad that the book found its way to print. Yeah, good for you. Again, the name of the book is the tyranny of big tech. One last question, I can't leave out. You, I love you for this. You tie Woodrow Wilson into big tech and really kind of point to him as kind of the guy of the modern oligarchy. And I think that's really what we're headed for is a is an oligarchy where these guys are in bed with a government the government's in bed with the big businesses and they're controlling everything and we just go

along um and it it is really difficult because at the time it seemed as though it was a socialist movement a communist movement progressives said we're going to take it step by step because we don't believe in the bloody revolution of 1917 But it's not. It is really an oligarchy. And I think that's becoming very, very clear to people now on both the left and the right. Wilson, I think, really begins this trend of embracing corporate power and monopoly power. He's also our first globalist president in many ways, someone who wanted the United States to become a liberal empire worldwide and wanted the United States to be to enmesh it, to converse it, to converse it to,

economy with the global economy. And so there's, you know, the globalists tend to love Wilson. And there's a real reason for that. And Wilson, I think, begins this, this trend in American politics. He ushers in a new era in American politics where, you know, it's really sort of form corporatism where you see these big, huge corporate behemoths. And the government says, well, you know, here's how we'll deal with them. We'll get big government and the big corporations together. And together we'll kind of run things. You know, big mistake, big, big mistake. And this gets back to the Republican Party, conservatives, our roots in free markets, in competition, in the rights of individuals and families. And that's what we've got to recover.

And we've got to get back to a place where individuals have power over their own property. Individuals have a say and control over their own government and not these masconc, not these oligarchs in Washington, D.C. or Silicon Valley. I'd love to talk to you more about this because you also put Teddy Roosevelt, who I love and hate at the same time. in his proper place on this, and that is the disease that permeated the GOP and had the GOP kind of really pretty much going on the same line as the progressive Democrat. Senator Josh Hawley, the author of the book, The Tyranny of Big Tech, an important book, small book, and easy to read, The Tyranny of Big Tech, Josh Hawley. Thank you so much.

Thank you for having me. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening. We have a dear friend joining us now, really talented filmmaker, a guy who everybody says, you got to get into culture. He's actually doing it and making a big impact. He has changed Swedish immigration policy, U.S. trade policy, education policy here in the country. He has been on ships, you know, tracking down jihadist pirates. I think he's a lunatic, but he's actually really, really smart and on our side.

And he's just put a new video out. I'm going to play about a minute of it, but this is, I'll tell you where to get it here in a second. This is worth watching and reposting and spreading in your network. It is Ami Horowitz on the streets of New York talking about the rich paying their fair share. So do you think that the poor pay a higher percentage of their income? Yes. Or the rich. They do pay a high percentage of their income.

Yeah, they do. Yeah. Oh, the lower class. Yes, definitely. Pay more? Yeah. Lower income people. Poor people.

The 1% earn about 25% of all the income in the American. So there you go. If we're talking about fair share, then, you know, if you're bringing in 25% of the income, 25% of the taxes should also... That would be fair. I would think so, yeah. And would you be surprised if I told you that the top 1% pay 40% of all taxes? I would you surprise you if I said the rich, the 1% pay 4%? pay 40% of all taxes in America.

Interesting. What surprised me. Do they? Yeah. Yeah. So it's a little more fair than you might have thought. Yeah. What percent of income do you think the top 1% pay?

I think they're paying like freaking 2% of them. They're paying 27%. What? 27%. Ami Horowitz. Welcome to the program. Amazing. It's how are you on.

And by the way, such a wonderful pleasure to be in a town where I don't have to wear a mask and get people yelling. at me and screaming at me and mask shaming me. That is awesome. Yeah. Texas is a pretty awesome place to live. I can't imagine what it's like in New York. I was up in Connecticut a few weeks ago. We had a death in the family and had to go up to Connecticut. And it was like a, it was, like I thought Elon Musk had drugged me, put me into a spaceship and he had already populated Mars and it looked like Connecticut. But it was completely. completely Martian.

The people there, it's a mental illness now. It really is a mental illness. There's no question about it. Look, most of these people are vaccinated. But they will wear, you will see them running in the park wearing masks. I saw a guy running a horse wearing a mask. Okay. I'm surprised he didn't put a mask on the horse.

I would just like to point out. I've seen a lot of things in New York, but an exception of a cop, I've never seen anybody riding a horse in New York. No, there are horses in Central Park. Yes, you can ride a horse. You can ride a horse. You can ride a horse in Central Park.

I mean, you rent it there, or do you have to bring your own horse? They used to have these stables right off of Central Park. They've now kind of changed them, but they still have horses that you could rent out. They don't really run. I'm just walking. Yeah, because they're probably beaten it.

They're like, I can't live in the city one more day. I just can't do it. I can't do it. Where's the glue factory, man? Right. So you were on the streets of New York. And I mean, one of the guys that you were talking to was full-fledged Marxist. Oh, yeah.

And what was, what was shocking about this was how certain all of them were about facts that were completely untrue and then surprised but not like embarrassed that they had it so wrong. You know, I actually, a lot of my videos are, look, they're important, but they're dark because they're just, I'm showing the underbelly of the left, right? And what they actually believe. This video is a little more hopeful because as certain as they were about faulty, faulty facts about taxes, which by the way, this is, this is, if you ask anybody on the left, right, they would, they would say the same thing that these people on the video saw. Of course the rich pay more. Of course the rich don't pay. I mean, the poor pay more and the rich don't pay their fair share.

But the hopeful part of this video was when they were confronted with the facts, with the actual reality of what tax policy is, they reversed themselves. And they said, that actually does sound fair, right? And this is, and it's a hopeful video in the sense that we are right on the facts, okay? We are right on the facts. And if we're able to get that out there, we could win this argument because let me tell you, easily. The class warfare issue is going to be the battle. It's not going to be the race issue. And the race issue is really when I spent a lot of time with BLM protesters and I start scratching the surface and presenting them with the facts, right, about how many people were actually killed unarmed by black people by white police officers.

Right, right, right. They will, they will accept that and poo-poo it and then it'll, it'll switch to a class issue. Because ultimately, what is critical race theory? Critical race theory is simply a slight deviation from class theory of Marx. You have something, or you don't have something, because this other class that happens to be white, has it? Right. And the real battle is not going to be race. It's going to be class. And there is, you know, the studies have showed over and over again that a significant portion of youth in this country want communism. Not social Democrat, not to be Social Democrats like the Europeans. I'm talking about straight at Marxism, communism, the destruction of the free market. It is not quite a majority or a polarity, but it's getting there.

It's over 20%, 25%. I'll tell you this, Ami, you can see it. You can see people being able to rationalize it at some point as well, because the government has been so corrupt, they have done so much with, you know, in the last year we've spent $19 trillion. Where's that money? That's not going to the average person. That is going to giant corporations. It's going to graft. I mean, it's no one is actually feeling the impact of that.

And when you start to see real inflation, you will look at the bank and go, you got all of that money from 2008. I got nothing. I got nothing. And you're going to start. looking at these companies that are now lecturing us, Coca-Cola, on how we have to live our life, et cetera, et cetera, and what's good and what's bad. And you're just going to look at all of these people and say, you are my enemy. You are my enemy. And you'll put all people in that category,

just like we do now. If you're a conservative, you're evil. If you're a liberal, you're a Marxist. It's not true. But that's the way human nature does it. and Marxism encourages it. Yeah, look, there's no question. I think that the lack of understanding, you know, and I guess Joe Biden must have gotten a tour of the Treasury building, and he goes, wait a second, we own the printing press? I can just print as much money as I want.

What? I mean, that's what it must have been like, right? What are we, $10 trillion in new spending? Trillion, $10 trillion. And that's your point. The point is no regular person is going to feel that. Because our economy is too big. The country's too big.

And even those kind of numbers don't really have an impact. And yes, and most of that money end up going through fraud and waste. And they're going to say, well, what happened? What happened to this money that we said? And then, of course, when the bill comes due and inflation hits, right? And then they're really going to feel it. And that's where they're going to say, what happened here? It is the biggest theft ever.

And we've gone through somewhat. We've gone through some of this before. Not, you know, Marx believed that capitalism was evil and twisted and was exactly what it has now become. And so his idea of people rising up against the upper class is accurate. If you are like the upper class appears to be, and not all upper class, I mean the institutionalized. upper class is they are getting benefits that no one else is seeing. And we've gone through it before. I was with Jay Leno at his garage a few years ago.

And he has this beautiful Bugatti. It's this big old 1929 Bugatti. And my son ran up to it. He was little. And I think he had peanut butter on his hands. And I'm like, don't do it. And Jay was like, no, go on. sit in, that's what it's for. I mean, it was really crazy.

But as he was in touching everything and leaving jam prints over this Bugatti, I said to, I said to Jay, what a beautiful car. And he said, better story behind it than it is beautiful. He said, that car was purchased in 1929 in New York by a guy who was head of an industry. He said, he never drove it. Never drove it. By the time he got it. It was too dangerous for him to be seen in the Bugatti. He said that car ended up, they took it apart and they used it as a truck. They just completely took this amazing car away and used it as a truck because every time that car would be seen, it was class warfare. And you're a bad guy because you have that car. And by the way, that's scary. Today you're dressed like Jay as well.

There's a lot of denim going on. You're right. Yeah, there is a lot of denim going on. And the white hair. That's right. Nothing scares me more than class warfare. Look, when you go to Europe, one of the many differences between Europeans and us is that the Europeans are jealous of people in the upper class. If you have a beautiful car in London or in Paris, oftentimes friends of mine who have those kind of cars, they get keyed because people are so disgusted that they have that kind of wealth. And I don't. And here, this country was so beautiful about it is we're aspirations. We look at people with beautiful cars and you're thinking is not, I need, why does he have that car, not me? You think, I want that car, I'm going to do what it takes to get that car or that house, or wherever it is. And we are losing that beautiful aspirational part of our country because the left has engaged us in this damaging class warfare, which I can't repeat it enough. It will be the battle for the next 10 years for the soul of this country, more than any other issue that we're facing. It's the class warfare issue that will either sink us or will take us ahead for the next 100 years. So let's talk a little bit about the whole idea of there will be an America that we all recognize in 10 years.

Yeah, there will be. In 10 years, for sure. 100%. There's so much gas in the tank from over the past few decades of success that they'll, they'll, they'll carry us for a decade or two. Having said that, it's the next 10 years which will decide the fate for the next hundred years. We'll know the answer in 10 years.

We'll know the direction the country is going in 10 years. Of that, I have no doubt. In which direction we will go, it is up in the air and is up to us to fight for us to win that ideological battle. We know which direction the Biden administration is going to take us. and that is into a whole new kind of I mean they're they're talking about resetting and doing you know getting rid of capitalism and into stakeholder capitalism which is not capitalism it's an oligarchy so we know that they are on this path right now and that I mean I think they've got a short time period to pull that off they've got about two years unless they they completely destroyed the election process by then yeah one of the most insidious parts of the left is their

changing of the language, right? They're denuding of power from words, like racism is a meaningless word now, right? And one of the things they've done, and if you've noticed it, that the word that the left use most often was

equality, right? That was the buzzword of, and what did they change it to? You're so right. Equity. Equity. Equity. And what does that mean? There's a very, specific meaning to their version of the word equity which means ownership and what it means is we have to get equal outcomes right what was equality equal opportunity that is a disgusting

notion to them now now they want equal outcome and that's what equity gives them
