also, don't forget, we hope you always set your dvr so you never miss an episode. these are troubling times, but to the extent possible, god is in charge, let not your heart be troubled. and laura ingraham is in charge for the next hour, so that is always heartwarming. and you better use the butterball turkey fryer. i want video evidence. >> laura: okay, i've already gotten several emails from friends tonight saying they've actually used the exact fryer and i quote, i'm not kidding, this from a text i just got, not an email, a text. "it was literally the best turkey he's ever made. moist, tender, just don't do it near your home." [laughs] >> sean: it's not like when you have, you know, the old-style -- >> laura: that's what he said. what can i say? that's what he said. >> sean: this one is safe, i vouch for it, and they are right, the best you've ever had. juicy and delicious all the way through. a a >> laura: hannity, one of the

funniest responses i've ever seen, i don't know why it is striking so funny. maybe i'm just tired. chris cuomo has been trying to tag ted cruz on counting the votes in all of the votes have to be counted that are legal omand cuomo is on some rant, and ted cruz just response "hush child." i don't know why i think that ie so funny. because cuomo is so out of control -- >> sean: twitter fights. it's like, if you're having a twitter fight, people write eacl other, "there is a huge twitter fight, hannity versus whoever." >> laura: for some reason "hush child," it's like something i'd say to my kids. >> sean: be nice, who cares. ted cruz is funny. he has a wicked sense of humor. >> laura: awesome show. i'm laura ingraham, this is "the ingraham angle" from d.c. tonight. our leaders know that lockdowns don't work, so why do they keep mandating them? tonight, we'll expose the real reasons behind the push. also, now, last week we told you

about this. this is a global effort to reset the world's economy.ab tonight, we have an important update on how supporters of joe biden are actually driving this. it's related to the lockdowns. a big tech appearance, today revealing they don't want to just monopolize information they want to monopolize your thoughts. dinesh d'souza explains how we can stop them. but first, the thanksgiving police. that's the focus of tonight'sne "angle." i'm old enough to remember that liberals used to talk about how important the right to privacy is. how the government shouldn't be allowed to intrude on personal choices made inside the home. >> the constitution of the united states guarantees our right to privacy.ut >> on some of our social issues we don't want government in our bedroom. >> wanting to put government right inside your home, inside

your bedroom, is wrong. >> where you can go to school who you can marry, decisions you can make about your own bodyr and, yes, your health care. >> we cherish our right to privacy. >> laura: but with a resurgence in covid cases, that is out the window now. liberals who worship at the altar of fauci have no problem reaching into your homes and demanding that you behave in a certain way.o socializing with people outside of your immediate cohort or family, or your bubble, is verboten. and if you have thanksgiving plans, they want to shame youub into canceling them. california is serving up a menut of exhaustive covid rules for families this holiday, including one that discourages, and i quote, "singing, chanting, and shouting." yeah, that's realistic.g, have these people ever been to a polish or italian thanksgiving? that's all we do.

blue state governors loved the power that came with the first lockdowns last spring. and they seem once again to relish the prospect of controlling our most intimate choices. >> this will not be a normal thanksgiving. everyone should celebrate only with members of their immediate household. >> we are asking you to choose zoom instead of packing people in a room for thanksgiving. >> we want to celebrate thanksgiving next year with ally of our loved ones, not doing it right now makes it much more likely that we can do that. >> if you are getting togetherel with others inside your home or at a friend's house, you need to stop. >> laura: still, other liberals want us to cancel thanksgiving altogether. a fellow named james hamblin wrote this for "the atlantic." "celebrating thanksgiving by entering someone's home and spreadingti a legal infectious disease is a little too darkly ironic, anyway.. thanksgiving is a nebulous day of atoning for the sins of colonialism by eating food and saying thank you.

now families and friends and communities can work together to achieve something meaningful and good: ending the pandemic." that sounds like a ball. that garbage article is just a reminder that the left hated our cherished holidays and traditions long before covid. here are some articles that theo left rant about thanksgiving last year. "how to not die this thanksgiving." "how to talk about the truth and trump at thanksgiving." "the vicious reality behind the thanksgiving myth." in other words, it's easy for them to cancel thanksgiving. they don't even like it, anyway. as the "angle" has noted many times before, the election was a choice between liberty and lockdowns. and right now, in mostly blue states across america, we are heading for rolling lockdowns of various degrees.s >> once we shut down the virus and deliver economic relief to workers and businesses, then we can start to build back better than before.

what i failed to mention earlier is the enormous respect i have for republican, republican governors who stepped up and issued mandates for wearing masks. the idea that the president's remaining economic advisor on covid is saying they should resist, i'm like, what's the matter with these guys? >> laura: "what's the matter with these guys."s even joe must know that some of what he said there is false. focusing on the shutdowns for a moment, shutdowns did not stop the virus before, neither did mask wearing, which 85% of the country already does. if the virus could've been beaten with those mitigation measures, we wouldn't see the explosion of cases inee countris like in germany, and in spain. even mask-loving japan has seen its caseload nearly triple over

the last month. the virus is a terrible tragedy but unfortunately one that we are going to have to learn to live with, using smart narrowly-tailored, simple health measures. floridart has done this beautifully. but states like pennsylvania are reacting to the fall's predictable spike in covid cases with new, severe restrictions on personal liberty. these orders have shuttered schools and have a devastating effect on small businesses. they offend families and destroy the mental well-being of millions of americans. but the pandemic police don't care about any of that, because from the very beginning of this mess, democrats seemed fine with the idea of turning neighbor against neighbor.ra >> you know the old expression about snitches, well, in this case, snitches get rewards. we want to thank you for turning folks in and making sure we are all safe. >> laura: is that not the

creepiest thing? by the way, if you i don't have blinds or curtains on your dining room window, you may want to get some before thanksgiving. you never know when the covid scolds will strike. they may even report you to the authorities. why? because you are not capable of making your own risk assessment. the government must make them for you. so just sit down, self isolate, and shut up. do what they say, or else. >> we strongly urge that if, in fact, we are going to have thanksgiving with anyone, that we limit it to a maximum, maximum, they suggest five people. a maximum ten people. f socially distant, wearing masks. >> laura: why ten? why not eight? or seven, six? it's all arbitrary. americans are worriedit about ts new lockdown reflex, and for good reason. how do the state dictators hope

to enforce these mandates? how far would biden's doj go to enforce the rules? and if you disobey, will you lose your job? your right to own a gun? could your children be taken away from you? the prospect of punishment make house some elected republicanse but there are at least some who are willing to stand up to biden's covid scheme.ar >> i want to do everything i can to prevent biden from locking us up and locking us down and forcing us to wear masks. >> laura: good for rand paul. and for me, i'm just thankful that we have a presidentau who pressed for operation warp speed, who reopened the country last may, and who understood thatd a nation without freedom and fellowship is neither safe nor sustainable.at and that's the "angle." governor andrew cuomo of new york has imposed some of the most insane restrictions on american holiday celebrationse

limiting thanksgivings of course to just ten people, but there's one county sheriff who is refusing to enforce what he calls a blatantly unconstitutional mandate. richard giardino is a fulton county sheriff and also a former d.a. and judge, he joins me now. richard, has the cuomo administration threatened your office in any way since you are sirefusing to enforce these inse rules? >> not yet. the most they have done is mention the sheriff to step up our politicizing covid, which we know who has politicized it long before the sheriffs did. before we go any farther, i have to tell you -- i heard you and sean talking about fried turkeys, and i hope it is not one that is big enough for ten -- we may have to look into it,ig under the executive order get over to laura ingraham's house and check the turkey before we go anya further. in all seriousness, more and more sheriffs are stepping up and even municipal chiefs are stepping up.

i'm proud to say i was one of the first to say "enough is enough." i have the faith in people who are in my community to make the right decisions for them, our rate of infection is 1.3, which is very low, and i hope it stayo low. but i believe it's an unconstitutional mandate, and that's why i took the position i've taken. >> laura: sheriff, this is what de blasio said -- mayor of new york city -- about enforcing limits on family gatherings. >> these warnings, these standards, really do affectly behavior. for everyone, that's a very substantial number, so of course when it comes down to individual families, we are not going to enforce on family gatherings. >> laura: so he says, but don't worry, we are not going to enforce this. this is going to affect your behavior. i just don't think a lot of people, frankly, believe them.

they remember him going down to harass the orthodox jewish community during funerals. we have more restrictions on funerals and other gatherings still in place in new york. i don't think people are going to rest easy because it de blasio says we are not going to come into your house and enforce these new rules. s >> listen, i think it's been handled terribly.is i think we are in for a rough winter, like everyone else, we know what's coming, but to scare people -- and it is scaring people. i had a gentleman who is in his 70s asking me if he is going to get fined if they have 14 people at their son's house. why do somebody in their 70s have to worry about this at the stage in the life? if they take precautions, they are going to be fine. i think what really upsets people, and i know you feel the same way, is whenk people like governor newsom says, "oh, you have to wear a mask, you have to stay home, you can't go out, bun it's okay for me and my friends." that's a common theme with

governors in many states. do as i say, not as i do. and i think that is frustrating many -- >> laura: the covid hypocrisy is always off the charts. the rich and connected always l find a way around rules, and unless they are caught red-handed, they'll always do it that's just the way it always works. thank you so much, sheriff, and thanks for speaking out. a new study conducted by the icahn school of medicine at mount sinai enlisted active-duty u.s. marines to see if lockdown additions would keep them from getting sick. recruits wore double layer cloth masks at all times, practice social distancing, not allowed to leave campus, clean their rooms daily, sanitized bathrooms, ate preplated meal a dining how cleated with bleach and the study found those marines had a higher infection rate than those who didn't do all that. here now is phil kerpen, the

president of the committee to police prosperity, and dr. ramin oskoui in d.c. phil, by now, our leaders know these mitigation measures, which have severe consequences on children, families, businesses don't really work, so why did they keep pushing them? >> well, it's a very difficult thing for a politician or public health official, for that matter, laura, to say there's not much we can do with how it can spread, take reasonable precautions to the extent you can, especially if you're in a vulnerable group, and that is the best we can do. we have vaccines on the way and are improving our treatments but sorry, that is the best we can do. they don't want to ever say that. they want to say, i've got this under control, we are going to close of this. they want to look like they have a handle on the situation. they want to feel like they are in control, and that's why l unfortunately, that psychological need is leading them to repeat the very, same

extremely costly disruptive policies that don't actually have any additional benefits over the reasonable precautions. >> laura: i think, dr. oskoui, phil is being more charitable in this endeavor, in this inquiry i should say, than i am. i see gretchen whitmer -- to me she seems perversely enjoying this, i'm sorry. i on camera, she is glowing, she has had her hair and makeup, she looks fantastic, and meanwhile the people are suffering so much in the situation in michigan. the people in michigan -- and they voted for this. they voted for lockdowns, i guess. >> you know, the whole idea of lockdowns obviously was to suppress viral spread, but it has come at a huge social and economic cost, and what we have to understand from that i icahn school of medicine study that you showed, beautifully done, with very thorough testing is social distancing doesn't work, quarantining doesn't work masks don't work.

this isks settled science, and those in the media and those in the public who want to cling to those illusions, they are fooling themselves. and they are hurting society. we have to be prudent. i think phil is exactly correct. if you're in a vulnerable group or sick, you quarantine. society has to go on. society isn't just covid. there's so many other things. there are children not going to school -- >> laura: right now. >> missing out on health screenings, missing immunizations. this has to stop. >> laura: fairfax county schools, one of the biggest school districts in the united states, closed for in person learning. maryland schools, montgomery county, closed private schools closingnd parochial schools closing new jersey, closing. this is a disaster -- >> don't worry, the teachers unions -- >> laura: it is, but the local health officials are also driving this shutdown. i go ahead.

>> have you noticed since the election, "the new york times" and "the washington post" both suddenly discovered schools are not high-risk settings and the science is in favor of schools being open -- >> laura: they are still shutting them down! >> they both have articles over the last week, though it's very hard to switch things around when you scared teachers and parents all summer long. >> laura: yeah. >> they sort of locked us into this situation where all of the fearmongering took over -- l >> laura: yep. >> you can't correct it, you can't turn it off unfortunately. >> laura: i had a school administrator today say to me "my teachers, 20% of themm or so they won't come back." i don't know, is there a resource, what can we show them -- by the way, dr. oskoui real quick, 36 states now are in this, you know, varying stage of mask mandates. pennsylvania announced a new covid rules, wearing a mask inte

your own house! speaking of reaching into your home and controlling our behavior. what about this -- where is the rest of the medical community smacking back at this with the masks mandates, despite the study we just talked about. >> i don't know where they are. i think they are shockingly passive, but remember, in the nazi era, 97% of physicians joined the nazi party. they are unwilling to stand by clear science that shows, the icahn school of medicine study was brilliantly done, masks don't work. we've known this before. this is not going to help. this is an -- spread virus. oxford has shown this. we need to act accordingly, and soon, while we still have an economy to act on. >> laura: yeah, we are not saying that all -- we're not saying doctors are nazis -- >> not at all. >> laura: you're making a point. >> they need to have the courage

of their scientific convictions, and they don't right now. they need to stand up for what is right. >> laura: there are a lot of incredible medical professionals that i think are also scared. they are scared of losing their job. phil and dr. oskoui, thank you so much. last week from which told you how international forces are using covid as an excuse for what they were planning already which is called "the great global reset." tonight, we have an update on how the people behind joe bidenh are adding their voices to that chorus effort. victor davis hanson here in moments on that. davis hanson hn moments on that.

do you have a life insurance policy you no longer need? now you can sell your policy, even a term policy, for an immediate cash payment. call coventry direct to learn more. we thought we had planned carefully for our retirement. but we quickly realized that we needed a way to supplement our income. our friends sold their policy to help pay for their medical bills and that got me thinking. maybe selling our policy could help with our retirement. i'm skeptical, so i did some research and called coventry direct. they explained life insurance is a valuable asset that can be sold. we learned that we can sell all of our policy or keep part of it with no future payments, who knew? we sold our policy. now we can relax and enjoy our retirement as we had planned. if you have one hundred thousand dollars or more of life insurance you may qualify to sell your policy. don't cancel or let your policy lapse without finding out what it's worth. visit conventrydirect.com to find out if you policy qualifies. or call the number on your screen. coventry direct, redefining insurance.

♪ >> laura: last week the "angle" warned you about what was coming. it's called the great reset. this idea was first w designed y the global elite at the world economic forum, klaus schwab. well, our timing could not havee been better. at this moment -- certainly not getting the attention it deserves -- biden's piggy bank, michael bloomberg, is holding something called the new economy forum. doesn't that sound fun? this annual summit brings together corporate ceos activists, u.n. officials, and your garden-variety washed up politicians like bill and hillary clinton.s, they all have one thing in common: the shared goal of reorganizing the world so that assets are distributed more equitably, more fairly, and

health security, so forth climate change, all of that is partur of it, and they are not even trying to hide their plans. this is mike bloomberg in his opening address to the forum. >> as we meet, governments around the world are mobilizing trillions of dollars to addresss the economic effects of the pandemic. it's an unprecedented opportunity not only to repair the damage, but address problems that existed before the pandemis hit. >> laura: and by problems, he really means your freedom and prosperity.>> and the solutions that bloomie and his globalist groupies arety proposing all involve more centralized control over your life, like how much energy you use. >> carbon must be given a price, wewe must phase out coal. authorities must integrate that in all economic and fiscal decisions. >> laura: joe biden agrees

with this. it's part of his platform, after all. goodbye, energy independence. hello, chinese solar panels. bloomberg also invited his buddies to make appeals to our global unity. >> an open world economy that works for all. we must safeguard a system under the wto and unequivocally reject protectionism. when china does well, the whole world will benefit. >> laura: ask the uighurs how they are doing. i feel like i've heard that somewhere before. >> the rising china is a positive development. not only for the people ofin china, but for the united statel and the world as a whole. >> laura: it's almost as if joe's "build back better" mantra refers to china's economy, not our own. at best, it is a return to failed policies that resulted io

almost no income gains at all for american families for decades, as china's situation got better and better. so, how long will it be until americans start realizing that economic populism, the b 21st century, is the most sustainable model for our country's success? clearly, 73-74 millions americans get it. you might not like trump's tweets or sometimes his tone but you are sure as hell going to miss his "americans first" ethos and resolve. joining me now is victor davist hanson, hoover institution senior fellow. does any of what you just heard surprise you? >> a little bit, because when rahm emanuel tried this 12 years ago, he said "never let a serious crisis go to waste," he was an embarrassment and was saying there was no publicte

support for these crazy ideas clash for clunkers, socialized medicine, they had to push it on people under the guise of a crisis. everyone thought, that's deplorable to say that. everyone from justin trudeau in canada to gavin newsom in california, hillary clinton michael bloomberg, they are proud of it. they say we're going to use this crisis and pushed on your throat something that has no popular support. p it had no popular support in the election -- that is why joe biden stayed in the basement. he did not campaign on these issues. that is why kamala harris crashed in the primaries, that's why mike bloomberg spent a billion dollars and got zero delegates, couldn't affect the vote in florida or ohio ands spent over hundred million dollars. what was that agenda? what were people saying, laura? they were saying, you know what we don't want open borders driving down american wages, we don't care about the wto and thn w.h.o. and the u.n., we are going to honor the constitution first, and we don't think giving these endless concessions from china is going to make them

democratic world partner, world citizen, not going to happen. we are not going to deindustrialize the middle west there's no reason to do that. we want to save this trillion dollar energy sector. it's given us all this freedom in the middle east. it's given us jobs. and you know, youea don't have o reset anything. we were talking nine months ago laura, i had never seen an economy in my hometown where employers were begging for labor. labor had leverage over employers. donald trump had recalibrated the republican party away from the character of a bunch off wealthy golfers into a middle-class, workers populist -- >> laura: all right -- yeah, victor -- >> didn't even know what the word "zoom" meant nine months ago. >> laura: thankfully -- >> we didn't have an economy -- >> laura: hold on.

>> laura: hold on. former bush treasury secretary hank paulson, he wants biden, of course, to reset our relationship back toward china. >> u.s.-china relationship has become more fraught. we see more tariffs, and fewer students and scholars are heading either direction. a competitive approach to china was inevitable, but keeping it healthy and not pernicious isro vitally important. president-elect biden will need to get the dimensions of competition with china right.im >> laura: translation: we don't want wages to keep going up for the average american. we liked it the old way. victor, this is more manufacturing -- >> or better yet, translation: let's see how much money i've made out of china, and my friends, i'll give a complete dossier to be transparent, and then you can translate what i just said. that's what he saying to you. tell that to someone in michigan or ohio or bakersfield that's job was outsourced, while hank paulson and michael bloomberg who is making billions on capitalizing chinese communist countries of western capital. these davos people, they have no credibility, no popular support

they always use a crisis to say "you know what, we're smarter than you." this is a guy michael bloomberg, that's as you drop a seat and that means you can farm. you put him on a tractor, he would crash into the wall, he doesn't know anything about the practical lives of millions of americans. it's pathetic.th it really is.ti >> laura: that clip from paulson and much of what i saw coming out of that conference was absolutely -- it wasan infuriating and disgusting and disheartening, but i think you are right, they have zero d credibility, but what they have now is their man, it looks like going to the white house, must something wild happens with one of these court cases, and we are just going to have to -- speaking of the, resistance -- just going to have to resist. victor, thank you so much. when the left isn't pushing global policies to benefit massive corporations, they are to strengthen small with covid restrictions, asst california governor gavin newsom is preparing to do. but he's even considering statewide curfews now. pay close attention to whom he'o taking his cues from on this issue.

>> we also are considering, full disclosure, a little bit of a preview, the notion of a curfew. i have on my desk, literally three studies: france, germany and saudi arabia, interestingly that have done comprehensive studies on the efficacy of their strategies as it relates to curfews. >> laura: has there ever been a bigger phoney than gavin newsom? his enthusiasm for saudi-style curfews has my next guest fearing for his small business. joining me now, small business owner austin beilhart. austin, what newsom has been saying, if you survived the first round of shutdowns, here is a second round toir finally pick you off. >> i can't believe it. my business, or one of my companies, actually, had a very hard time. we brought it back, and now going strong.

my companies are currently thriving. and now we are talking about the second shutdown.n. you know, honestly, i am in the business of helping other businesses, and i'm very concerned.kn you know, many of these businesses i work with barely survived that first shutdown and now, right before the holidays, a second shutdown? many won't make it. many people will go bankrupt. and this curfew? that sounds like martial law. i mean, that's not how a free society operates. >> laura: and don't you love how he references, well, we are examining studies. i have studies on my desk. like, at the end of the day with a glass ofes pinot noir, he is poring over international studies, like we are supposed to believe that? he really thinks californians are stupid, but they are not --e >> exactly, look at the data he is looking at. he cites alcohol-based curfews

what does that have to do with the coronavirus? talking about saudi arabia and germany? d are these the pillars of freedom? we are talking about the united states of america, land of the free, home of the brave. we need to operate like a free society. >> laura: austin, newsom was caught breaking his own covid rules at that restaurant last weekend. the high-end napa eatery. of course, like many other democrats, he offers this phony apology. >> i made a bad mistake, and instead of sitting down, i should have stood up. you can quibble about the guidelines, et cetera et cetera, but the spirit of what i am preaching all the time was contradictory, and i've got to own that, and so i want to apologize to you, because i need to preach and practice.nd >> laura: he is trying -- no insult to joel osteen, but he's trying to do a joel osteen, and it is not believable. not at all..

do you find it sincere, honest austin? >> not at all. it is erratic, hypocritical behavior. it is terrible leadership. it's causing all of our problems in california. it's classic gavin newsom. >> laura: are you going to stay in california, austin? >> i'm not. i'm moving my businesses out of california. i'm going to florida, moving my family to florida. we have to be able to prosper. you know, in a free society. california doesn't feel like a free society. >> laura: it's such a beautiful, beautiful state. it's heartbreaking. >> it is. >> laura: people have got to change their voting patterns are there going to keep getting more of this. austin, thank you so much. big tech ceos appeared on capitol hill and revealed a few alarming truths. they don't want to just monopolize information, they want to monopolize your thoughts. dinesh d'souza explains it next.

thoughts. history also destroyed the lives of thousands of jewish survivors still suffering today. god calls on people who believe in him to act on his word. "comfort ye, comfort my people." especially during this holiday season of hanukkah. when i come here and i sit with lilia i realize what she needs right now is food.

these elderly jews are weak and they're sick. they're living on $2 a day this now, is how god's children are living. take this time to send a survival food box to these forgotten jews. the international fellowship of christians and jews urgently need your gift of $25 now to help provide one survival food box with all of the essentials they critically need for their diet for one month. your special holiday gift will provide everything they need to celebrate the miracle of hanukkah. this is the first time in over 70 years that she has anything to do with faith. the communists came and wiped it out. and now we're coming to her and saying, "it's okay to have faith." it's okay to light the hanukkah candles. for just $25, you can help supply

the essential foods they desperately need for one month. i just want to encourage all of you to join with yael eckstein and the wonderful work of the international fellowship of christians and jews. god tells us to take care of them, to feed the hungry. and i pray holocaust survivors will be given the basic needs that they so desperately pray for to survive.

>> laura: big tech ceos on capitol hill today reminding the american public how irresponsible it is to put editorial decisions in the hands of social media companies. here is twitter had jackck dorsy admitting how the censoring process works. now, in this case, that "new york post" expose on hunter biden's laptop. >> we made a quick interpretation, using no otherer evidence, that the materials in the article were obtained through hacking, and according to our policy, we blocked them from being spread. >> laura: big tech has ambitions that go beyond simply monopolizing social media>> search engines. thanks to a whistle-blower who came forward to senator josh hawley, we learned how far-reaching facebook's plans are to control what you really think. >> centra is a tool that facebook uses to track its users, not just on facebook, but across the entire internet. centra also uses behavioral data

to monitor users accounts, even if thosese accounts are registed under a different name. >> i'm not familiar with that name. >> do you have a tool that does exactly what i described? that you can see over my shoulder? or are you saying that doesn't exist? >> senator, i'm saying that i'm not familiar with it. >> laura: joining me now is dinesh d'souza, conservative commentator, filmmaker, of the latest "trump card," now available on demand. dinesh, you say big tech is moving toward orwellian society. what does this hearing today tell you?te >> it was creepy, from the very beginning. the crucial moment for me came when ted cruz began to ask jack dorsey, do you know anything about voter fraud? no. ted cruz asked why do you keep putting warning labels on the president's tweets? dorsey, in orwellian language, i was just trying to advance the

conversation. let's think about the meaning of the word "conversation" for a minute. if you and i are having a conversation and i ban you from speaking further, or i tell you to delete what you just said or you can't continue speaking, or every time you say something i disagree with, i stick a warning label on you, i mean,ee laura, e conversation would quickly come to an end. far from furthering conversation, what jack dorseysa is doing is ending conversation disputing articles i don't have any validity. orwell talked about the perversion of language, that was one unmistakable signature we saw today. >> laura: i agree with you, dinesh. i found their entire presence to be creepy. i'm not talking about the long scraggly beard or the unblinking stare, just the way they seem completely disconnected -- maybe they are

just good actors -- from any legitimate concerns that their customers have about what they are doing. that's, i guess, what being multibillionaires allows them to do, just insulate themselves from the reality of what's out there. >> it just threw my mind back to my college days, when we first read orwell, we learned about how orwell created this imaginary dystopia, and he modeled it on anything stalinist russia, some faraway totalitarian society, and it struck me how closely orwell is describing america today. the presence, for example, of newspeak, the idea of the news indistinguishable from propaganda. t huge, important stories don't get covered by mainstream media what gets covered is a pageantry of lies. or censorship, the way people have turned into public nonpersons, almost like they get thrown off the public space theyey don't get to participaten

the public dialogue, and then these creepy individuals are the face of that. somehow, these unelected figures hire a bunch of people, and they have, in a sense decision-making power over what we get to say and when we get to say it, including the president of the united states. when they put labels, for example, on trump and say things like "official sources disagree" about the election, i'm thinking, official sources, who are you talking about? are you talking about the supreme court, they are an official source. the congress, they are an official source. trump himself as an official the a electoral college, they are an official source. no, they're talking about none of these. by official sources, they mean themselves, and their allies in the mainstream media. somehow, these clowns have been elevated to "official sources" in this orwellian world we now live in.mho >> laura: i don't know where i read this -- they would be picked last on the dodgeball team. i'm just kidding, someone just wrote that, okay, that's not why we need to criticize them.

>> laura: carla caccavale was just a new one when her nypd father was gunned down. nypd officials named a dog after her father, she made sweatshirts to raise money for a police charity. each sweatshirt had a thin blue patch sewn on them. it was a hugeir hit. carla learned that pelham school officials had banned staff from wearing her thin blue lines sweatshirt. why? well, superintendent cheryl champ claimed the thin blue lines flag has increasingly been perceived by students to be threatening in nature, causing them to feel unsafe within our schools.

at first the school district had no problem with people wearing anti-cop blm paraphernalia, but they change their tune just last week. now no staff is allowed to wear political clothing in school. carla caccavale joins me now. carla, how do you feel about how they handled things? >> you know, there are a few problems here. one, the blue line was banned for being political, i don't see the blue line as political. i have this on the sweatshirt as a memorial. it is a line of duty sweatshirt. and the fact the blue line was banned but other things were allowed, up to and including election day, when the ban went for everything, is also a pretty big issue here. >> laura: for instance, a rainbow flag prior to this, i imagine that would have been allowed and any other insignia -- >> i am not aware of any other flag that is banned in the school. >> laura: so with having lost your father as a newborn, and given everything that the new york police department has

had to endure with the looting and the riots and the push to defund, how are police reacting to this? i know you hear from a lot of them. >> well, i have to say, for a long time, the police have been silenced, and i feel like this has become much more than a sweatshirt. this is a time for good cops to have their good reputations restored and taken back, and i'm not just doing this for my dad i'm doing this for all who made the ultimate sacrifice. i'm doing it for all of those who put on the uniform every single day to protect people to have yet to meet. it has gone way too far to the other side, edits time the pendulum swings back. >> laura: here is what pelham public schools told "the ingraham angle." s "the district has a long-standing policy with regards to the limits of political activities in thee school environment and is working to implement it consistently. we never wavered in our support for law enforcement, especially

our local police." carla, except they did just waiver, and they said that they took -- they said it couldn't be worn because students felt threatened. t threatened? >> right, and actually the pelham police chief issued a letter in which he said, if there was a problem, we are in i very, very small town, a smallpr police department, he would be notified. just for halloween, the police where they are delivering goody bags to the elementary school and in the letter, she saidth "increasing fear." increasing from what? >> we've got to roll, i hope the situation pelham is corrected. i up next, governor cuomo. we have an update.ot
