Great commentator about culture and so forth. A discuss about wokism, what is taking place in your classrooms. Stick with me, before we go to our guests. Ronald reagan used to ask, are you better off today of than you were 4 years ago . Ill ask that question. Are you better off today than you were 4 years . Is the country . Under President Trump . Lets look at the dismal numbers. Dismal. Were still heading south. Consumer prices, price you pay rose 8. 5 in march, highest in 40 years. Consumer price index, jumped 8. 5 from a year ago. On an unadjusted basis. Data reflect price rises not seen in u. S. Since stag flation days. You know this. Due to surge. No. If something goes up, 8. 5 , and your wages go up 5. 6 , last i checked that is almost a 3 gap. Food rose 1 for the month. 8. 8 over the years, prices for goods, rice, ground beef, citrus fruits, all posted gains over 2 in march. Prices up 11 and 32 , gas line creases popped 18. 3 for the month. Price gains in clothing, services, each which increased. 6 , Transportation Services rose 2 . 12 month gain 7. 7 . These are monthly increases. Soaring gas prices. They are force something uber and lyft drivers off the road. When prices for gasoline go up almost 20 percent a month, food prices, more on food prices. Here are items predicted to cost more at grocery store. Poultry and eggs, fats, oils, fruits, nonalcoholic bev beverages like milk. And Producer Price index. Of goods and services producers receive, rose in march at fastest pace since records have been kept. Bureau of Labor Statistic reported that Producer Price index prices paid by whole wholesaler increase 11. 2 from a year ago. The gauge climbed 1. 4 . Stripping out food and energy and trade services. Socalled core ppi rose. 9 on monthly basis. That is where you get 10 or 11 on annual basis. That is excluding food and energy. Supply chain crisis. Continues, we never had a supply chain crisis. A whole host of Biden Policy Decision said former secretary of transportation. Elaine chao, they have been telling you our ports are working 24 7, long beach has 7, one is working 24 7, why are they not all working 24 7, because of union rules and labor rules in california. Biden new plan to fight inflation, remember he talked about going after big meat . Now it is big oil. And all that has to do with putin. Everything that is in short supply. Currency is debased by Deficit Spending it is on Vladimir Putin here, is a monster. He is a genocidal maniac. That does not give biden a pass on what he is doing to our country internally, his policies are destroying the United States of america, your pension, salary, bonuses, they are driving up medical costs. I creating food shortages. Next thing, you know, listen well have brown outs and blackouts and gas shortages, what do we do . Like we did in 70s . Even and odd days to fill up your car . It is coming. It is not because russia invaded ukraine. It because the democrats invaded the oval office and congress, these, their policies at work, they embraced Bernie Sanders, we we dont hear from him any more . I wonder why . They embrace the marxist agenda of destroying fossil fuels, you remember that document that Bernie Sanders and joe biden put out, most radical. It could have been written marxist, that is what they are instituting. They are going through this, u. S. Government debt, over 30 trillion dollars. When Biden Took Office is was 23 trillion. 30 trillion. It is unimaginable that percentage of gdp weve not seen since height of world war ii, here surpassing it, in relative peacetime. Number one. The interest we have to way interest on the debt that takes a bigger and bigger percentage of the federal budget. You folks will see high inflation and shortages, and costy going way up. Supplies down. This is the horror that is created by the left. When they abuse the laws of economics, the laws of economics are just as correct as the laws of physics, you cant change them with legislation or borrowing, man kind has experienced this before, whether in germany or zimbabwe wherever you look. You print money, and create situations where people dont know where to put their money or invest in researching capital, they are not sure. So on. You are having a war against fossil fuels . And what happens, you get less fossil fuel,y were energy independent, 18 months ago. Now were begging venezuela and saudi arabia for oil . Vladimir putin didnt do, that joe biden did; that Chuck Schumer did that, and nancy pelosi did that, the Democrat Party did that, that is what do that. Never forget. We have 30 to 31 Trillion Dollars in debt. Biden wanted to add, remember that build back better nonsense, that is another 6 trillion . Where would be today with that. Are we better today than 4 years ago . Cities across u. S. Are breaking alltime homicide records this year, wow, not just homicide, Violent Crime across the border, and not just violence crime. You see how people steal things from stores willynilly. Lawlessness. What is the Department Of Justice doing . Chasing down parents in front of school boards. Going after republican legislatures where they disagree with the will of the people. Or putting sensible voting laws back in place, what is different of justice doing, they have 13,000 Special Agent in fbi. Give or take. How many of those 13,000 are focused on going after people who are quote, unquote, parading or trespassing on january 6 . They say this is biggest investigation they have. Biggest one, not terrorism, not the mob, no. Not second crimes. Sex crime are not the mexican cartels, january 6, how many of those 13,000 Special Agents are biz like at video, they say they look at 21,000 hours of video. We have to get those trespasser and traders, we all agree with Violent Crime, the media and left dont, they were fine in summer of 2020, that was liberating. Lets look. We better off today . Than 4 years ago . Look at afghanistan. I horrific surrender. Resulted in murder of 13 american soldiers. Look at russia, threatening to u. S. Nukes against us. Would that have done that under donald trump, look at iran getting nukes from this president . They were barely surviving under donald trump, economically and otherwise. China, producing more nukes than before. They did not do that under trump either, i would say our Foreign Policy is a abject disaster. A grave threat to United States, our classrooms. We have a parents move, because joe biden and Democrat Party and Big Government teachers educational bureaucrats unions have taken control of the classrooms, they dont want parents involved in teaching of their babies, they are pushing transgenderism, and sexualization. Pushing Critical Race Theory. And they are pushing all kinds of the hard left marxist agenda our kids, one thing theyre not pushes is education, then we have the executive order. Destroying womens sports. Title 9. Women hood. We cant define a woman any more. We have a historic appointing were told, a black woman to the Supreme Court of the United States who cant define a woman. Why she is historic. Why . Because she wants to be free to rule in a radical left way. When it comes to these ideologies. They are destroying women hood and women sports. Then in my view we have most corrupt president. In america. Former mayor of moscows wife invested 3. 5 million in biden family, china invested millions in biden family, former okay, you ukraine regime, we dont know about joe and jill bidens s corporations, they have got released their tax returns to, that they invested millions in biden family. What do we know about this . Other than what what reporters have been doing . Not enough. Should we not know if joe biden is the man chue ran candidate, if he has been bought off and soldout, i think we could. There are more predicates here than you can throw a stone at. Are we better off today than 4 years ago, hell no, the country is in grave straits, ill be right back. T matters. Aleve. Less pills. More relief what happens when performance. Meets power . You try crazy things. Because youre crazy. And you like it. You get bigger. Badder. Faster. You can never have too much of a good thing. And power is a very good thing. Xfinity mobile runs on americas most reliable 5g network, but for up to half the price of verizon, and power is a very good thing. So you have more money for more stuff. This phone . Fewer groceries. This phone . More groceries this phone . Fewer concert tickets. This phone . More concert tickets. And not just for my shows. Switch to Xfinity Mobile for half the price of verizon. Thats a savings of over 500 a year. Switch today. Mark welcome back in, we have a great of guest. Retired 4star general jack keane, a friend, institute of study of war chairman. You have seen him many times to fox. I want to dig in deeply on the invasion of ukraine by russia. We have the russians amassing again forces on the eastern border in of donbas. They are begging for helicopter and artillery. I read that expert is a that russia just wants to bomb bard the believe out of this country, should we not be providing the country with the weaponry they need. They would like to live and fight, they have the opportunity to actually defeat the russians in ukraine. Im for What Zelenskyy and his military are trying to achieve that is defeat russians, listen, that put facts to table, United States and nato provided significant amount of weaponry to ukraine to help them win the first phase of the war, 70,000 antitank weapons, now some of that equipment did not come as fast as it should have, i have been critical of that administration for that. Now were in a different phase of the war. The russians for the time, given up the north. They are moving their Operation Down South to east and donbas region. For our audience, that is where russian separatists and russians had a present since 2014. They are familiar with this area. And they are bringing as much as they can to bear on that, for the last couple weeks, zelenskyy who has seen this coming, the president of ukraine, he has been begging for different kinds of systems, he wants other systems to continue to come to kill tanks, and shoot down the aircraft with shoulderfired air defense systems. But now he wants advance Weapon Systems because were getting into a conventional combined arms fight on open flat terrain. That is why he is asking for tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, radar. Combat aircraft and helicopters. The administration has finally put a list together that does just that. And he has u. S. Has artillery on the list. And list goes on. Were getting with the program here, finally to help zelenskyy in that phase. That list is a good list. The czechs are providing tanks and british as well. How fast we can get that in there will be an issue, these are complicated systems. And were providing hundreds of armored vehicles. I feel good about finally well get the weapons that zelenskyy has been asking for for a couple weeks. What i think is happening in front of us is the russians are using some of the same tactics they used in the north. And lost to the ukrainians. Much of the vehicles they used to come down to the south, and start to maneuver, they are road bound, they are wheeled vehicles, there not a lot of track vehicles, im convince theyd have not real done the training to do Armor Warfare which is highend conventional warfare, you are out in formations and changing based on what your enemy is doing supported by artillery and air power. I think the despite the russians gathers and consolidating their forces, i think ukrainians will give them a hell of a tough fight, there is no certainty that russians will be able to accomplish what they want to the south, they want, so we understand is, they want to take control of ukraine entire Southern Coast that would turn ukraine to a land locked nation and cut them off from the sea. Which is economically devastating to them, because all their experts and imports depend on mostly on sea lanes. That is the objective. They are struck they will struggle to accomplish that, i am done under estimating these okay, you ukrainians, they have skill and determination and leaders, they will do very well with proper equipment. Mark i have fell, that the people are fighting for everything. For their families, we see the horrific genocide and atrocities. The more land the russians give up to reset the battlefield, you see what happened to civilians, the butchery, debauchery and rape and murder, it is important that we have a war crime tribunal, that is after the fact. We continue to gather information, the people are still being slaughters, well be right back. To be a thriver with Metastatic Breast Cancer means. Asking for what we want. And need. And we need more time. So, we want kisqali. Women are living longer than ever before with kisqali. When taken with an Aromatase Inhibitor or fulvestrant in postmenopausal women or in men with hr , her2 Metastatic Breast Cancer. Kisqali is a pill thats significantly more effective at delaying disease progression versus an Aromatase Inhibitor or fulvestrant alone.

Avoid grapefruit during treatment. Ask your doctor about living longer with kisqali. Jon welcome to fox news live, i am jon scott, ukrainian fighters in mariupol refusing to surrender as russian forcing close in. Some 2000 ukrainian troops in a steel plan plant are ignoring the surrender or die. Ukraine Foreign Minister describes situation as dire and heartbreak could, saying that civilians and Military Personnel are now encircled by russian troops. And elimination of eurk Ukrainian Forces in mariupol could end any chances for peace, im john scott, now back to life, liberty and levin. [music] mark welcome back general jack keane. Are they getting the okay,. Why is this important to United States. Ukrainians have antiship missiles, we didnt give them harpoons that we have, they dont have the launch systems, they have the systems, im assuming that is what has hit the russian ship in the black sea. As to larger question, dealing with the administration in support of the ukrainians, i had a concern that the administration had an unstated strategy one to assist the ukrainians, the unstated part was not to provoke putin. I think that was operating for weeks. That got in the middle why the migs did not go in and other thins did not go because they were afraid that putin would escalate. We have been critical of that administration for that. They seem to have turned a corner in providing the amount of equipment that is necessary. Always had the concern that the Biden Administration is not on the same page with zelenskyy. Who wants to stop the atrocities and genocide, he believes only way you will stop it, is to drive the russian out of his country and declare his depend independent sovereignty again. I,a agree. The Biden Administration was pro concerned about provoking Vladimir Putin. People may still think that way, but now were providing them the weapons they need. To overall issue, we have a country in 21st century, russia, that is conducting a barbaric invasion of an independent sovereign state. Were not seen that since world war ii, that impacted global security. Certainly security in europe, and begins to reset Security Framework of europe that brings in u. S. National security. It is critical for us to make certain that zelenskyy and the ukrainians can drive the russians out, job one. Number two. We have got to reinforce the Eastern European countries that are a part of nato with true capability now and not a lot of rhetoric. Im talking about forward defensive capability, so putin knows full well the price he will pay if he begins to invade a nato nation. But the best deterrents, is zelenskyy and ukraine military, the feeding and crushing the russia defeating and rushing the russian army, 75 of that russian army is deployed in ukraine. If he can defeat that russian army it would take him several years to regroup and recover from the devastation. That is why we have to be all in. That is best deterrent we could have. Mark if russia is defeated in ukraine, it will not go further to other countries. What is communist china and xi taking from this . I think they recognize full well their Strategic Partner miscalculated rather seriously, they must have second thoughts about Vladimir Putins judgment. They have not condemned this invasion, or supported it. They are supported Strategic Partner. I think this will not change president xi in my mind, down agree with those who believe that pause of all problem that russia is having. Somehow, that will impact china and they are not going to be as aggressive as they have been in the past, i dont buy, that i think that president xi operates on his own National Interest and his strategic goals, they are clear, he talks about them in his speeches thatta domination of indopacific trojan and replacing United States as global power of the world, and to be on top economically, militarily and technology. He about that, and taiwan is part of that. He intends to solve that problem while he is serving as chairman. I think that were still on that page. Despite all problems that his Strategic Partner is having. He is enshrined in fall of this year for his third term, likely no term limit, we will be able to serve indefinitely, that is supposed to happen, that will likely happen. I believe that president xi, will continue to listen to what is happening, he is watching. The impact of sanctions on russia and what it is doing to their economy. I spoke to the ambassador from china as late as tuesday night. I can tell you he is focused on what is happened in ukraine. Trying to understand it and also see how the world is uniting against russia and identifying them as a international paria. That said, i believe that president xi will stay focused on his goals despite the fact the problems his partner is having. Mark i agree 100 . Even if you are wrong, we getter prepare. Getting weapons for taiwan would be different than getting them to ukraine. The island. That makes a lot tougher. General, thank you so much for your past service, your service now, and informing the American People, you are a great patriot, god bless.

Mark welcome back, one of great observers of our cull culture is david rubin, host of the rubin report, he has a fantastic book out. I want to ask you about this culture of ours, to go to the classroom and Parents Movement and to disney and so forth. I feel that is suddenly happened last couple years. Where it is a civil right to sexualize 5yearolds, sixyearolds and 7yearolds, i think that myself, shouldnt anyone be rising up, isnt the point to leave the babies alone. Funny thing is, it feels like it just burst forth. There has been a long march through the institutions, you can link it back to collecting in 60s, but last couple years super charged by algorithm and big tech. A corrupt woke media that lies to us about everything. Telling us 2 plus 2 is 5, and. It is suddenly seems that is everywhere and it is relentless. Of course, what your real point is, is right, we should be allowing kids to be kids, not sexualizing kids, we should not be allows state employees, that is what Public School teachers are, to have private conversations with kindergarten through third greaters, that is the socalled dont say gay bill is about, and hide the conversations from the parents. The meme is dont say gay, you know gay is not in the bill, if media were honest, could have called it dont say straight bill. You wouldnt want a straight teacher talking with a young sixyearold girl about sex either, to take that out of classrooms and that was transparency, you see these people screaming about this, saying this is an assault on gay rights, this is one 100 a lie. Mark this is more insidious. You agree with me that one of the reasons they dont Tell The Truth about this florida bill and other bills, is because they would not have a leg to stand on, overwhelming majority of American People, i dont care their sexual preference, would say this is rational, yet a politicized it, now disney is on all, they are supposed to be a wholesome family place. Even though it is operated out of california, no offense. Disney built this grand, we have spent a fortune going to their parks and their films, my daughter was a subscriber for her kids, and my grand kids, she cut that off. It is is this something that is really being pushed from top down . From the radical left on the vast majority of American People . First, let me say, i take no offense to disney being in california, i fled california and now live in free state of florida, they have a operation in florida. Desantis is really fighting them, the top Down Question is interesting, there a ceo of disney, bob chappic. To become ceo of disney, you have to have a pretty get pedigree in business to make deals and acquire companies, and pick the proper programs and et cetera to max out profits for the shareholders. You may have seen it they leaked a bunch of videos where bob chapek is graveling and apologizing to his lgbtq. Employees saying he thiede needs to be a better ally, these are same people who tell people they are putting their messaging secretly, not so secretly in a lot of the programming, i really appreciate the fact that mark, twice you said, you dont care whether someone is gay or straight related to this i think that is party that is getting lost. Because this does not have anything to do with gay or straight. This has to do with who is supposed to teach kids what and when are they taught them, you are right, if you just step back and remove that phrase, dont say gay, it a made up phrase, you think of it bill hb1 577 everyone parents would not want their kid discussing this stuff with a teacher. We could have an honest discussion about when should health be taught. I learned that in 7 grade. We know that is not for first graders. I think a little bit of both on the top down thing, you get you rise up the corporate chain in woke companies if you dont really know what you believe and you play by your ridiculous rules, partly how he got position and that means bottom up, inmates are running the asylum, with marginal employees where Junior Assistance are protesting books by peterson they suddenly because of twitter, and online mob they seem to have the power, i suspect if a couple good people would stand up against it it would go walker quickly, that movement is building right now.

Call a local agent or 1888allstate for a quote today. Mark welcome back, were with dave rubin, fantastic new book, dont burn this country. Surviving and thriving, you can get it on amazon. Com. My question to you is dave rubin, what impact will all this woke stuff, i dont like that word, it is too passive. What impact will it have to next election . This is a bottomup election, not a top down . I have a better phrase, how about complete and utter lunacy, does that work for you, that is what it is. Conventional thinking rights now that virtually everyone who knows anything about politics say there is a massive red wave. We have an incapacitated president and second in command, not much better, that is being generous and pelosi and aoc, they are lead by radicals, it would lead to us believe in a midterm well have a massive red wave, that is basically what i think, however, i think we have to give the devil his due, anything can happen. We have this covid thing that is in the system right now. As were talking right now, in the last couple days, philadelphia is bringing the mask mandate back, and hearing that airlines will keep the masks on plane. Could we get a sudden spike in october and have mailin ballots, anything is possible. In weird times we live in it is important for people to realize your vote matters, you have to stay engaged. Dont be afraid to say what you think, fight, and fight, and fight. If you just think there is a red wave, just because you think it it will happen, that is what you lose the elections. Every generation you say, every two years, every 4 years. Things are really teetering Out Of Control right now. Are right, unfortunately every two years will be most important. Because what i call the american marxist movement, these people are serious. They are breaking all the boundaries and fire walls and the constitution. They are not interested in comedy comity, you are right, the democrat won in gerrymandering battles, you have some of these senate races, where some of the candidates are not the best of the best. Some of rinos and mcconnell try to influence the outcome of the election, a bad idea, in is that. And as you also point out. We still have not fixed this election system, there is still enormous opportunity for the Democrat Party to violate the constitution, where the states tried to rein some voting systems, you are right, people say there will be a great red wave. Um, excuse me. We have to vote, that is your point. Is there any more we could say about voting that would encourage people who believe this it country to vote . Pride cometh before the fall, if you just think it will happen, it probably wont, you have to actively make it happen. We need people to get out there and say, hey, if you dont like the woke stuff. Then this is what i tell people, you dont have to be a republican. But you cannot be a democrat. That basically is where were at atthispoint, even someone who is opposed to you saying a bill maher . If he is against Critical Race Theory and wokism and gender stuff and lockdowns, how could he vote for democrat, he needs to temporarily vote for republicans, restore normalcy, 2 plus 2 is 4, then we could get back to america we had 20 years ago it of liberals versus conservatives fighting about taxing a rates, not whether america would continue or not.
