Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager, this is my home, this is my fireplace, this is my chair,

I'm getting silly and I haven't even begun. Anyway, this is the fireside chat, it's probably about

number 70, which is a little mind blowing when I think about it, it feels like I just started it

very recently. And by the way, I want to remind you that even if I talk about something that might

be in the news and half the time I don't, but about a third of the time I do, now I know a half

and a third doesn't equal a whole, I'm well aware of that, I catch myself. But even for those

that are about some news item, they are in fact permanent because the themes that I talk about

are larger than the given news item. So you can watch the first one and it'll be just as relevant.

Yeah, he's snoring. It's a service that I provide him that when I begin speaking,

happily humans don't react that way or there's no question I would be seeking other work,

but it does work on, is it too loud? Is it, it's not okay? We're okay. I actually find it very

calming, but I don't want you to get so calm that you join him in slumber. Anyway, I do want to

remind you this is completely unrehearsed. We don't even have a makeup person, which may be obvious.

And it's just me talking to you and then taking your questions and it's a wonderful way to

so to speak, get to know each other. Certainly you get to know me and there's nothing formal about it,

but it's about life and it's my fireside chat each week. So welcome again. So I'm going to read

to you what I want to talk about today is something that the president said, President Trump said,

in his state of the union address. I think we should, you know what, give him a little push.

It's getting a little loud even even for me and it's adorable, but the thing can let's see what

happens. Okay, Otto, that's the man. It's one of the best known dogs in the world right now

as a result of this because we get a lot of views and a lot of people come at Otto. Anyway,

the president said the following. I'm quoting directly, all Americans can be proud
