Summary

The books and stories that we grew up to, the stories that I know that I read to my children, are effectively being canceled. President Biden has removed mentions of Dr. Seuss from Read Across America Day, a staple of those days for presidents before him, and they are being removed because of racial undertones. Why? Why is this a problem now? Why is it only now that it s a problem? And the answer is simple. Because if you give the radical woke left an inch, they will take a mile. There is no ration or reason, and there is nothing that is sacred. This is what we have to deal with in America today. Don t let it happen. Push back. Call out the nonsense aggressively. And maybe we can put an end to it. Because if we don t put it in check, it's never going to stop, folks. It will never stop, and maybe we'll put a stop to it because if you don t, it'll never stop. Let's preserve some of the goodness and the decency from some great books because who knows what's next? Because who knows where they'll be next? You saw Mr. Potato Head, and you saw the Muppets, they're all gone in the last 10 days in the past 10 days and what's coming in the next 10 days? What's the worst thing that we can do in the face of that lunacy? I mean, we've made a career out of just folding, out of check out what we do and what we've got in check out and what are we're going to do in check and how we're all going to be in the future? You know what we'll be in check it out? And what we're gonna do, right here, right there, we'll have it in the rest of the future of the insanity? We're all gonna have it, we're not going to have it? -- we'll see what we need to do, we know what's going to happen, and we'll all get it, right? . I'm gonna do it, I'm not gonna stop it, y'all! -- I'll let you know what you're gonna get it! -- -- you'll see it, folks? -- I'm going to put it out there, I'll tell you what I'm doing it, and I'll get it out here!

00:00:02.000 Seuss, guys. They're canceling Dr.

00:00:16.000 President Biden has actually removed mentions of Dr.
00:00:20.000 Seuss from Read Across America Day.
00:00:23.000 It was obviously a staple of those days for presidents before him.

00:00:34.000 Rather than learning from anything, Rather than overthinking it, they're just going to remove it.
00:00:39.000 In fact, six Dr. Seuss books are going to stop being even published.
00:00:44.000 But what I want to know is, if Dr.
00:00:47.000 Seuss is all of a sudden magically racist in 2021, why wasn't he racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, transphobic, everyphobic imaginable under Barack Obama?
00:01:05.000 Why is that? Look at some of these pictures and videos that are out there online.
00:01:10.000 Here's Michelle Obama and they're celebrating with Thing 1 and Thing 2.

00:01:24.000 Why is it only now that it's a problem?
00:01:27.000 And the answer is simple, guys.

00:02:35.000 Because we've allowed the radical left to take over every aspect of our lives.
00:02:40.000 Because we've allowed cancel culture to Dictate what we do and how we respond and how we deal with absolute lunacy.
00:02:50.000 And in the face of that lunacy, guys, we've made a career out of just folding, out of giving up.
00:02:56.000 But this is the insanity, folks.
00:02:59.000 Let's preserve some of the goodness and the decency from some of these great books, because who knows what's next?
