Slash, Ben, we'll get to all the news in just one moment first. A reminder, the word is how people are abandoning their overpriced wireless carriers and flocking to Pure Talk for the same coverage, but at a fraction of the price. That's right. If you're with Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile, switching to Pure Talk could save your family over $800 a year. And switching is really easy.

0:54.8

You can keep your phone, keep your number, or get huge discounts on the latest iPhones and Android. Right now, you can get unlimited Talk Text and six gigs of data for just $30 a month. And you're thinking yourself, well, what if I go over on that six gigs of data? Well, here's the thing. If you go over, they're not going to charge you for it. So you have nothing to lose. There's a reason that Pure Talk is the highest rated wireless company by consumer affairs. Stop giving your money to overpriced wireless carriers and start saving money right now. From your cell phone, dial pound 250 and say, Ben Shapiro you will save 50% off your first month. That is pound 250. Say Ben Shapiro Pure Talk is simply smarter wireless. A lot of phone companies intentionally try to confuse you.

1:12.3

When he asked them to simplify what exactly you are buying, they really can't. Well, Pure Talk USA will tell you exactly what you are getting. Unlimited Talk, text six gigs of data for $30 a month. And if you go over on that data, they're not going to charge you. Head on over to pound 250. Say, Ben Shapiro, again, dial pound 250. and say, Ben Shapiro, you say 50% off your first month at Pure Talk, which is simply smarter wireless.

All righty. So Dr. Seuss has now been canceled. And don't listen to all the idiots out there who are saying, well, you know, he's not really canceled. You can still get some Dr. Seuss books. Right. So they canceled like six Dr. Seuss books. The, the arguments that we

1:45.5

are saying, which we'll get to in just a second, in favor of canceling these Dr. Seuss books are

1:49.2

asinine, ridiculous, backwards, and fully demonstrative of the kind of values that the left

1:54.2

would love to cram down on your children. More importantly, well, not more importantly,

1:57.8

just as importantly, they are fully demonstrative of the fact that

2:01.1

liberals have collapsed almost completely into leftism. See, I always make the distinction on the show

2:06.5

between liberals and leftists. Liberals are people who disagree with me about taxes and about

2:09.7

abortion. And leftists are people who disagree with me about all those things and want to destroy

2:13.6

individual rights in order to pursue utopia. Liberals don't have to be leftists. In fact, liberals could just disagree with me about the extent to which government ought to lend a helping hand and such. But what has been happening is that liberals have decided that they are going to collapse full scale into leftism. They're going to go right along with the utopian dreams of the left. Because as I've been saying for at this point years, the liberals have a choice. They can either make common cause with conservatism and stand up for individual rights,

2:38.0

but their job becomes a little bit harder in terms of pursuing their policy goals

2:42.0

because conservatives oppose those policy goals. So preserve the rights,

2:46.0

but you have to fight a longer, harder slog in order to achieve your policy goals,

2:50.0

or you can throw over the individual rights, move along with the left, achieve your policy goals. Or you can throw over the individual

2:51.6

rights, move along with the left, achieve your policy goals, but ditch the rights. And the left
