There's no question that the Great Awokening seems to have reached its peak in 2020 and 2021. But is Wokeism really on its way out the door, or is it simply being rebranded?

Twenty-five years ago, before 9/11, al-Qaeda declared war on America by attacking the USS Cole. Seventeen sailors were killed, and Washington looked the other way. Through first-hand accounts and testimony from the sailors themselves, you see the heroism, the failures, and the lessons that were never learned. It’s a story every American should know.

| 0:00.0 | Well, ladies and gentlemen, the question that we're going to address today is, is wokeism dead? |
| 0:05.3 | Because there's some really interesting statistics that we're going to take a look at, which indicate that wokeism is at the very least on the decline. |
| 0:13.8 | And so what we decided to do was analyze, not just one chart or one graph, but a whole slew of various statistics and indicators, which, if true, |
| 0:25.1 | and if consistent, could mean that wokeism is in real trouble. But that doesn't mean it just |
| 0:31.0 | disappears. And it doesn't mean that the animating characteristics behind it go away. Could it be |
| 0:36.2 | that it just moves on to something else? Well, we're going to be discussing all of that. I'm more on this episode of Making the Argument. I am your host Nick Fratus with me in the studio, my beautiful bride, Tina Queen of the Bees. Hello, everyone. And then of course, our political prognosticator, a resident historian, the Oracle of Virginia, Christian Hines. I have a feeling. I'm going to make a prediction now at the start |
| 0:55.1 | that there's going to be a lot of disagreement on this podcast. There very well might be. |
| 1:01.3 | And I'm going to make a prediction as well. I'm going to make the prediction that gold is going |
| 1:05.3 | even higher. That's right. Currently, it is at over $4,000 an ounce. And it seems to be going higher, which is why a lot of people are asking questions about, |
| 1:14.4 | gee, how do I add gold to my portfolio? |
| 1:17.0 | Well, good news because the sponsor of today's episode, Lear Capital, |
| 1:20.8 | has all of the educational materials you need to answer those important questions about how you can hold precious metals, |
| 1:26.3 | both physically and you're safe, you know, in a place where the government can't just automatically take it away by debanking you or as putting it a part of your retirement plan. Again, we talk a lot about bad monetary policy. Unfortunately, we still have a lot of it in the United States of America. So hedging your bets with some precious metals is a pretty good idea. |
| 1:47.9 | And Lear is the place to do it because like I said, they're going to tell you how you can own it physically. |
| 1:49.9 | They're going to tell you how you can own a part of your 401k. |
| 1:55.5 | They're going to give you all the educational stuff that you need to make an informed decision before you spend any money. |
| 2:05.7 | So go right now, get started by calling Lear at 8007074575 or you can visit nick for Lear.com. |
| 2:08.7 | That's NICK, the number four, Lear.com. |
| 2:13.6 | So once again, either try that out or call 8007074575. |
| 2:20.3 | In fact, there's a special offer of up to $15,000 in bonus gold or silver with a qualified purchase. |

| 2:24.3 | Okay, let's go ahead and frame this up. |
