MARK STEYN (GUEST HOST): Let me just ask you something else on this, Deroy, while the race card is in the news 24/7 now. You've been following this stuff with these woke corporations and what's going on in Georgia. I take it you have a picture ID, just to -- just to get into the Fox News building every once in a while. Why are Black Americans not totally insulted by the racist argument that they uniquely are too stupid to acquire voter ID? I mentioned last night that in Botswana, in Mauritius, in Zambia, in Kenya, Black Africans manage to acquire -- acquire the necessary ID to vote. Where do -- where do the white Democrats get off making this racist argument that uniquely on the planet Black Americans are too stupid to get picture ID? Do you know anyone without picture ID?
DEROY MURDOCK (GUEST): I don't. I mean, Black people drive cars, Black people get on airplanes. If you want to go to the -- to the All-Star game in Denver and you want to fly Delta Airlines, you're going to have to show photo ID to get on the plane. So maybe Delta can explain why that's not racist but it is racist to expect people to show ID when they vote.
