Interesting how Joe Biden was so worried about election fraud at some point that Joe Biden was so worried that machines could possibly be manipulated and that he wanted a paper trail for every election. Do we have a paper trail right now? And Joe Biden says these are unfounded conspiracy theories. This was all the way back in 2007. So for quite some time Joe Biden has been warning and concerned about voter fraud. It's interesting how voter fraud becomes a non issue as soon as they start to benefit from it. So anyone who dares talks about how there is no claims of the machines being manipulated, just ask the question why is it that United States senators, including When Biden was a US Senator, Democrat US Senators were so interested in looking into this. Or is that conversation now completely and totally suppressed? That is something that we are not allowed to even ask about. Through the years, I've had the privilege of knowing some amazing people. One of those amazing people was Herman Cain. Unfortunately, we lost Herman this fall. Herman was the former CEO of Godfather's Pizza. He battled and beat cancer. He ran for president in 2012. He was a talk radio host in Atlanta for many years. Herman was an amazing man whose life embodied the values we strive to live and pass along to our kids and grandkids. Belief in God, the power of personal responsibility, hard work and a good education. Living each day with a thankful heart.

Watch Poor to CEO the Herman Cain Story at salemnow.com okay, I want to get to this article here that was sent to me insistently by producer Andrew, but it's on a website that I have blocked on my computer so I had to lift the blocker538, which is a conman website, which is written by the con man himself, Nate Silver. But this is actually a good piece, unfortunately. So I do give attribution where it is needed. And fivethirtyeight. Com I don't like. I can't stand it for a variety. They just make stuff up. They're novelists. They're not polis pollsters. They just are absolute. They work in the space of fiction. And Nate Silver is an absolute fool. Okay. But anyway, this story's really good because it actually goes through some data that they're not able to change or manipulate. And so it talks about suburbs. Why have the suburbs shifted blue? So the predominant viewpoint from a lot of people is the suburbs have shifted blue because they're getting more racially diverse. That's actually not the case. It's the opposite. They're actually the suburbs that have gotten more diverse, actually went further for Trump than versus 2016, depending on the suburb. But the one through line is that the suburbs are becoming more college educated. Basically the conclusion of this story is that it's colleges that are infecting our entire country. We've been talking about this a lot. This is why we do what we do at Turning Point usa. When you send your children to college, you're playing Russian roulette with their values, as Dennis Prager says he would not Send anybody he loves to the college system. I completely agree with them. My favorite question to ask people is, why are you going to college? Well, my parents are making me awful reason, why are you going to college? Well, to get a job. That's not a good reason to go to college either. And some people say, well, I need to go to college to get a job. That's not true. Did you know that 59% of people that go to college graduate? 41% dropout. Did you know that 54% of people that graduate college, they find jobs if they're able to find a job that do not require a college degree. If you're studying English, communications, soft social sciences or psychology, going to college is a complete and total scam and waste of time. Now, if you're trying to become a lawyer, trying to become a doctor, engineer, college is for you because you have a skill. The question for every college graduate is, what is your skill? As Victor Davis Hansen has famously said, we should have exit surveys. We should have exit tests for graduates. Show me what you can do that a high school graduate cannot do. That is excluded being able to name all the specific gender pronouns and the reason why America is awful. This is why the suburbs are going blue. They're going blue because for the last 10 and a half years, 10 to 15, 20 years mostly, we've had a surge of upper middle class families post kind of 1990s that all of a sudden have money, a little bit of money. They're like, I want my kids to do what I do. I spoke at this event and some of my best friends were in the room. They were great. And it was in Highland Park, Texas, Dallas. And I said to the room, I said, one of the major problems is that no one in this room would be proud of their kid. If all of a sudden they came home and they'd say, I want to be a plumber. Everyone in the room, you would say, are you sure you want to be a plumber? That feels a little dirty or nasty. You sure you don't want to be a data analyst or go work in finance? Working with your hands, working in the muscular economy is considered to be subpar for the ruling class neighborhoods across the country. Be careful what college you send your kids to. Ask the question, why are they going to college? And if you talk to some of our people at Turning Point USA that work for us, they'll be the first one to tell you that they would have done their entire career path differently. And I mean, useless is the word that most People say, now, I never went to college. So when I talk about this, I'm the worst and the best person to talk about it. So I'm the worst because I actually didn't have the institutional experience of going. In some ways, I'm the best because I don't have the institutional experience of going. So I can show you, I could show what you can do if you don't go. So it's kind of a weighted thing, and I fully admit that. But basically, we have an entire generation of young people that are borrowing money, they do not have to study things that don't matter to find jobs that do not exist. And the universities and the campuses are creating. They're actually creating weaker, less informed, less grateful people that go out into the world not to build, not to rise up from the bottom up, but instead to tear down, to destroy what came before them. This is why I encourage everyone that's listening to this to homeschool your children. I think homeschooling needs to catch on even more in our country. And it's getting big very, very quickly. And so a lot of parents say that they want their child to be educated. I think that is a wonderful goal for your children. If your goal is for your children to get educated, ask yourself the question, is college the best place to do that? You see, we live in a time where you can independently study almost anything at any time thanks to the access to Internet. If you have the will to learn, you could become a master in almost anything what college has done. And secondly, they don't teach the great books in college. They don't teach Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. They don't teach Descartes. They don't teach John Locke, Edmund Burke, Hume. They don't teach the authors and the writers and the thinkers that are worthy of our appreciation. Instead, they teach this evangelistic nihilism that the world has no meaning, there's no such thing as beauty or truth. What college should be is we should tease young people that there is beauty and truth out in the world. Let's work together to maybe find out if we can get close to it. That's what college used to be. That is what schooling was, was this kind of teasing of young people where they got students interested in the pursuit of finding truth. Now the exact opposite happens. Now, students are told from a very young age there is nothing but horror, power struggles and darkness on this planet. There is no truth, there is no beauty. There is nothing that is rooted in absolutes and don't even dare look or try you tell that to a 10 year old, a 12 year old, 14 year old, a 16 year old, what do you think they're going to end up believing when they're 20? And now part of this is also economic. Don't be surprised when you send entire generation to college where they get no skills, many of whom do not graduate. They get filled with this idea that you should not marry. And so we have more single 30 year olds than any other time in American history. They fill our inner cities so they are renting, not owning in vertical housing units by the time they turn 30 or 31. Don't be surprised when all of a sudden they lose complete and total faith in the system. When that very expensive piece of paper has become nothing more than a boot camp for the disintegration of western civilization. Don't be surprised when all of a sudden that group of people wants to tear down everything from within and part of it is our fault. I touched on this yesterday when I was talking about Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, the foolish socialist from New York. She's foolish, but popular. And here's the way that most kind of business Republicans brand AOC and Bernie Sanders. I just had a couple breakfasts recently kind of around this theme. They say that young people only like them because they want free stuff. It's completely wrong. They like Bernie Sanders and AOC because they want freedom. To use the biblical equivalent of the story, these are the Israelites trapped in Egypt, forced to labor. They're looking for a Moses, they're looking for a liberator. Now what's hilarious about the story is that if they ever actually get their student loan debt relieved and you play out the biblical narrative, they're going to start complaining like instantaneously, which is exactly what happened in Exodus. Moses comes along and starts talking about freedom. All of a sudden Pharaoh comes along and doubles the brick out. But there's like, who's this Moses guy? I hate him. Moses leads them out, the people of Israel into the wilderness and they start complaining to God. They say, I'm hungry, I'm cold. I don't like this whole freedom thing. But young people look at Bernie Sanders and AOC as their liberators. And they're not totally incorrect. Because for a generation that has been so lied to about the college cartel because their upper middle class parents believed in this mythology that the passage of college was going to make them richer, gonna make them wealthier, was going to give them satisfaction. And then they go and do the college experiment and any business ideas they might have had probably disappeared. You want to know why entrepreneurialism is like disappearing in our country? It's because people are studying entrepreneurial ism, whatever that is. In college, I always joke around, I mean this as lovingly as I can. What the heck does it mean to study entrepreneurialism? You do entrepreneurialism. You don't study entre like, yeah, I'm studying entrepreneurial activities. What the heck is that? Oh, I'm studying the great entrepreneurs. No, okay, that would be a history lesson. Okay, you want to know what it's like to be an entrepreneur? Go take a risk. Make payroll. Not have enough money to satisfy all of your bills. Have every person that you thought that was your friend or ally get twisted around, not sleep for five years of your life. That's what an entrepreneur is. You'll learn along the way. Trust me. I could tell from someone who started something from almost nothing. And so you play this out. It actually explains this. Whatever. This article is from the con artists538.com why have the suburbs shifted blue? Well, because a lot of young people are living at home. 52% of all college graduates are living at home with their parents. So all of a sudden, they're re registering to vote at the suburbs. Like, whoa, we have all this influx of these hyper communists. 52% of college grads are living at home. 52%. A majority of young adults in the US live at their parents for the first time since The Great Depression. 52% in July. This is why the suburbs also turn blue. It's because you got all these. You got all these campus communists flooding the suburbs. And you know what's really interesting? I tell people this all the time. You know, young people influence their parents voting more than you could ever imagine. Young people persuade their parents to vote a lot of ways. You think it's the opposite. It works both ways. I mean, I think that there's plenty of parents that influence their kids. You'd be amazed at how many suburban women email me and they say their child persuaded them to vote a certain way. It's incredible. To give an idea of how dramatic this is, 52% of young people living at home with their parents. Do you know that that number the year I was born was 36%? 36%. Now, the definition of this is young adult, by the way. I don't mean any criticism. If you're listening to this and your kids are living at home with you, the lockdowns have made it almost impossible because of these stupid politicians and these self Righteous politicians that are afraid of bad press and actually embracing a platform of epidemiology and public policy rooted in bravery and wisdom and said it's the safetiest nonsense. But the share of 18 to 29 year olds living at home is 52%. So if you just take more than half of all 18 to 29 year olds, they're living at home, not self sufficient, not earning an income. And yes, it's very much like Europe. The government takes care of you. Very little ambition, no personal responsibility, don't go out and marry, don't have a lot of children, all of one of each. So how do we break out of this? How about you open up the country and you stop sending your kids to college and stop funding these universities and defund the colleges through these taxpayer dollars. It's funny. Republicans controlled the mechanisms of power. They didn't do anything to challenge the college cartel. It was President Donald Trump that signed the executive order on freedom of speech. One of my good friends who listens to this program is probably listening right now. He made a great, he made a great argument. He said, didn't you notice that churches, taverns, restaurants, places like that is where most of the people are able to talk kind of off the record, off the record, kind of talk about things unfiltered talk about how awful that Cuomo and that Newsom guy is. We have now hyper digitized everything where a people think they're monitored. Two, the speech is policed. Three, everyone also self censors so they're just less honest. And then you get the people that really speak out on social media and they get publicly crucified. But imagine if all the bars, the restaurants and the taverns were open. We wouldn't put up with these lockdowns at all. You want to know why Americans are not resisting these anti scientific, pro death lockdowns? That's what they are, they're pro death. If you support lockdowns, you want death. That's the framing we must use. I want to tell you guys about Good Rancher.

It's just a matter of who's the absolute and total worst. They kicked off a two year old and their family because she wouldn't keep their mask on. Now in defense of a United Airlines, at least they didn't beat the living snot out of her and drag her through the aisle like they are known to do. That is a United Airlines practice where they just drag people through the aisle that don't want to be on there. Remember two, three years ago where that, that poor guy, I think he was flying to Virginia or something. He just didn't want his flight to get changed. Do you remember this? And they just beat him up and then they just dragged him unwillingly through the aisle. It was brutal. I have to say that the United Airlines stewardesses ended up being a lot nicer after that. Okay, let's just be very clear. The tyranny that goes into this and the lack of response and rebellion has been unbelievable to me. I'm really glad I was not on that flight. Do you know why? I would have stood up for this family and it would not have gone well for me. I probably would have gotten barred forever from United Airlines. Why didn't other people stand up? Do we know if anyone else stood up? Do we know if anyone else stood up to these tyrants? I got in a fight with a flight Attendant, which is a frequent thing because these look, some of them mean very well, some of them are very wonderful people. I had a wonderful flight attendants from American recently there. I mean that. But this other flight attendant I had for American was just the worst. Started screaming at me and I had my mask up to my nose, but it didn't cover my whole nose but it covered the part where the air comes out of the nose and just screaming at me. And again, I don't, I don't expect anyone to stand up for me. But this is the number one part of the story that no one's talking about. The United Airline story. Where were the other passengers? Where were they? They're okay with this crap. Oh, I want to get to Newark so I'm going to stay quiet. I don't cause any problems. Can you see how the 20th century unfolded now? Can you see that this was a metaphor for everything that's going on in our country right now? Somebody else go fight. Not me. I got to go get to Newark. 2 year old can't keep a mask on and that's reason to discharge them from a plane. That's the part that no one else is talking about here. This is the safety ism, hyper feminization of our country. Sit down, shut up. Don't stand up for the weak or the innocent. Which is literally the definition of a two year old. Weak and innocent, worthy of protection. Their family tried to do their best. We're getting the video right? We're trying to pull that. They said they were just trying to take a weekend trip for a holiday tradition with friends to see the Rockefeller tree. Not much to see this year. We were holding this mask on her face. And yet these tyrannical flight attendants who missed their calling being gulag officers in Stalin Soviet Union decided to destroy their life. Not their life, but their weekend. And cause a lot of problem. I shouldn't say their life. Is united going to fire these people? I thought the policy was you have to be three years old or higher to have a mask on. Five years old. And so they just enforce this thing tyrannically and arbitrarily. What is the risk of a two year old dying from the Chinese coronavirus? And by the way, if a 2 year old hasn't got the Chinese coronavirus yet, considering they live in germ factories, they're probably not going to get them while they're sitting in their parents lap on the way to Rockefeller Center. If we can't defend 2 year olds, how are we supposed to defend the United States Constitution producer Andrew has a 2 year old. He's told me many times that you'll be lucky to get them to just sit and not climb over the chair or not cry for four hours straight, let alone wear a mask perfectly. The only way it would be possible if they medicated your children, which is what the left wants. They would rather that they gave this poor young girl some form of a tranquilizer, but at least she had her mask on. It's true. It's not America. Where were the other passengers? It's a metaphor for what we're going on right now. Are you going to sit idly by while our country, our republic and our civilization is being screamed at by some gulag flight attendant? Are you going to stand up for the weak and the innocent? That's the question. Thanks so much for listening everybody.
