BEN DOMENECH (HOST): You are supposed to be comfortable with the government the elites give you, which will use emergency powers to keep you masked up, locked down, and prevent you from buying seeds, but will do nothing to stop the cartel-benefiting anarchy at the border. Just as the elites feared and hated the “wide awakes" of the 1860s, so their ideological descendants fear and hate the wide awake Americans of the 2020s.
Make no mistake, the progressive left today is the inheritor and continuants of the slave power of yesterday. It is the same aristocratic creed, the same enmity to the Declaration of Independence, the same fixation on the hierarchy of race and caste, and the same dread of Americans who rebel against them -- the same horror at the possibility that an ordinary working man, regardless of his race, might wake up to the truth.
That's why they do their damndest to keep wide awake Americans suppressed, demonized, locked down, and for the rest, to keep them asleep and in the dark.
...
Because, you see, the stakes don't change, and neither does the enemy. Only the circumstances do.
On one side, you have the enemies of everything this nation has ever been in that. And on the other you have the patriots, the Americans, the men and women who will do anything to preserve it, because they know what civilization requires.
You are the heart of a nation that has slept for so long. But now at last, you are wide awake. So now I ask you again. What are you willing to do?
