♪ hello america i am market transient welcome to a special saturday edition of "life, liberty & levin." hopefully you had a wonderful peaceful thanksgiving. they're much should be grateful this year end i'm proud of all of us were sent the leftist packing and reelecting donald trump. we are back on the right path there is still a lot of work to be especially complete woke left running our educational system. it's clear american marxists of infiltrator academic institution they are indoctrinating our youth with their propaganda and radical agenda. it's a very serious problem one i am hopeful president trump will be able to reform. in that vein i want you to here for a few of the friends we've had on this year who have been sounding the alarm about the real threat in academia, woke us in. we begin with the great john ellis distinguished professor emeritus university of california at santa cruz, california, goa.
5:02 pm
mark: profes professor john elss english professor emeritus at california santa cruz about that was fun. has written a great book the breakdown of higher education which we have discussed with him in the past he really is a scholar on this subject. chairman of the california association of scholars and wrote a piece in the w higher es become a threat to america. you laid out in the article and i wanted to dig a little deeper with you, professor. so tell us how this has come to be and how this is taking place in these campuses? quick side like people to understand much more than they do is our entire educational system has been captured by radical left, far left sect. this is a complete catastrophe for the country. something has to be done about it. i want sub society co cannot let this radical group take over the
5:03 pm
entire educational system and use it for some purposes. something must be done to stop this. in the article, i listed a number of really catastrophic problems the society is facing, that everyone can see for example crime is out of control old beautiful cities like san francisco made unlivable by our children's test scores in the schools, they are just terrible, disgraced from society really.ey design. not my neglect. not by accident. i explained how every single one of these future problems the society faces now can be traced back to the corruptionn system l radicals. on the campuses the nuclear family that suburban house with two parents, two children on a
5:04 pm
dog along which everyone else sees as a rather pleasant place in the fulfillment of the american dream. on campus that is viewed with horror. the average radical professor sees that as a source of all evil. that is the place traditional american values are passed on from parents to children. radical activists breaks out transition. the fight between pens and teachers at the moment i tried to lay out in the article all the ways in which very serious problems in the severity of them, the unexpected of it. physics professor we can also track months of dollars pouring
5:05 pm
these colleges and universities from foreign governments funding operations. the communist party with confucius institutes. we have people coming into this country and manyd many of them t leave. they are not assimilating into our society. that has become obvious. these college campuses are almost like little stalinist empires. they demanded money from the taxpayers. billions and billions of dollars on them. if you any kind of oversight or any efforts to fund them, to look at them whether it's congress or state legislatures the and on and on and on. i was rendered writing plunder and deceit i came across several
5:06 pm
articles they hire the same faculties they only give grants and bonuses and other forms of merit to people who agree with her point of view. they have this incestuous activity that is going on are chosen from that faculty. without your knowledge tells you as well? used to be the quality control the answer to the most distinguished members of the faculty. they had a license granted by those faculty to police the quality of what's going on in the classrooms. now that's broken down completely. the radicals are in charge.
5:07 pm
so now college administrators whose job was poorly controlled they are now in fact quite different. their job now is to protect the radical faculty. there are extensions of the radicals. twenty-one says why don't we have the administrators get a group of the situation? those administrations are creatures of the radicals they are licensed by the radical to protect the radicals. if anyone actually complains about the quality of what is going on, about the fact the radical indoctrination onset of real education. there needs to be some kind of oversight. there needs to be something that is done because these entities have completely unraveled and they have spun out of control. they are basically radical left
5:08 pm
wing indoctrination who hate america and b becoming racists h critical race theory these comments to their teachings, into theiandto their lectures a. that's going on without any counterpoint of use. as well as a federal government student loans as they would any other industry they're not going to radicalism for the purpose of undermining and destroying our own nation.
5:09 pm
can't a congress or the state legislatures at least make an effort to get their hands around what is taking place? what you think of that. quick state legislatures is one of the places you might expect some activity. there is some activity in a few states, north carolina, florida, but not enough. even in a red st stays with hers large majorities like idaho there is not much going on. there ought to be a lot more going on. basically what people need to grasp is that money is being given to these campuses for the purpose of education. that money is being taken by radicals and used for something completely different. they are hired to do a certain job. they want to do a completely different job. that is embezzlement. they're taking money on false pretenses. but the job they want to do is to complete their project of
5:10 pm
completely transforming the country so that it isn't their r image the radical political image what that would amount to now, god only knows. everyone knows the marxist countries don't work. basically the main motive force of the campus radicals mr. brecht on this society. i don't think they know what they're really trying to achieve in terms of the end goal. but, i think if state legislatures were to wake up to something that is happening is fraudulent, the monies being used f for a purpose it was not given for then they could simply getting there through a new administrators it's easy enough or state legislature to say we are insisting on a new president of the campus as a condition of continued funding. once that new presidency and the
5:11 pm
legislature should lead on it and anyone who is in a classroom who is using that money, the money he's paid as a professor to do instead the work of political activism, political recruiting for his favorite political cause that person should be taken out of the classroom. should not protect someone who is hired to do a job but does something that is not authorized. that in a sense is not doing the job you're paid to do. legislatures could easily say that. but the problem we have is the public attitudes are lagging behind reality. overall people have fond memories of their times on college campuses they think 30 years ago they had a wonderful time as under gravid at harvard and princeton. they find it very difficult to believe that these institutions could have deteriorated so much.
5:12 pm
even talking to republicans sometimes people look to me and say i just cannot believe what you're saying to me. i don't blame you for not believing it's almost incredible the degree to which they've gone bad. but we ought to do is more public relations on this issue. the public's got to be brought up to speed. mark: up next the head mucky muck of the great hillsdale college he joins me too reveal what is really happening on campuses across the country. we will be right back. take an ekg from anywhere, but with 6-times the data. can your smartwatch do that? introducing kardiamobile 6l, the fda-cleared ekg that provides six-times more heart data than any smartwatch. and it detects three of the most common arrhythmias in just 30 seconds,

♪ ♪. mark: welcome back to the special episode of "life, liberty & levin." earlier this year the privilege of speaking with my friend doctor larry is the present hills.college. hearing his insights into the rise of anti-semitism and marxism on college campuses all over the country.
5:17 pm
and of course this is destroying education in our country from within. go. >> the president of hills dealt college my favorite college. also a regular sponsor. a long time friend i thinkthis . >> 35. >> 351 of the great intellects on churchill, on the american founding, the declaration of independence. larry run a tight ship. lots of free speech going on hillsdale college a lot of americanism, philosophy, economics, history. you look at these other college campuses that are burning with islam x and replacing the american flag with the palestinian flag, anti-semitism, all the rest of it. this is not happening on your campus. so what is your analysis? >> i am used to these fancy colleges being bad now they are worse and i'm sort sort of a horrified from their basic functioning has broken down.
5:18 pm
they run them the way they run them and then they have complete control of them. they have lost entire control of them, why? first of all they did the first thing wrong with the college for? it's not a place to go and change the world it's a place to go and understand the world. and so they preach social activism to the students and they are astonished when students take over at war with each other's social activist causes and goodness what would it be like to be a jewish student are one of these campuses right now they are in peril of their lives. they are supposed to be colleagues on these colleges. ours is a christian college and everybody loves them and they love everybody else. and they are students together. they are supposed to learn together. instead you're going to change the policy of the nation and
5:19 pm
destroy another nation at a time between when they're 18 and 21 years old and they are not supposed to be taking over the world they are supposed to be learning about the world. if you give up on that there is no purpose for the college. that's why they are so quick to cancel classes what are they doing in there anyway? might as as well be out on the barricades. it is shocking to me. i thought these places are rich they are run by people who are in complete agreement with one another. they will be able to manage this. they are putting on a show and let it happen but they will stop it when they want too. they can't stop it. the president of columbia asked the cops to come in, they went in and then she pulled them out and then she asked them back again. she cannot make up her mind. i am horrified by it. you can see this could happen to our country.
5:20 pm
this is the we way the country s coming to be run that is to say you take these radical principles which don't buy the way protect the rights of anyone. they protect the power of some. they have converted education into an exercise in power on hhere's a simple thing. you have to be able to surrender your opinion and order to learn because your opinion is always provisional. if a kid comes here it's not easy to get into hills dealt college he says i have a conservative i want to come to hillsdale and i say what's conservative? there's a 17, 18 years old they do not know. also the first thing to know about the college is you are going to have to learn the meaning of the words that you use. despite that fight that's broken out is about the middle east. the modern middle east that history in regards to israel
5:21 pm
start in the late 19th century. israel comes to be after the audubon empire falls in the first world war at the end of the first world war. the british made some promises to several countries if you help us israel is one of those in many arab countries. israel comes from the same set of facts very quickly if you have professors they become tenured who hate america or islam us who are marxist, fascist, whatever they are but they are un-american. and the higher each other in the process they become administrators in the same school. isn't that the poison that's taking place here that these institutions are being destroyed from within? >> takes marxism. what is that idea? that idea is we should use the human will to remake the world. that is not an exercise in
5:22 pm
learning. that means they are teaching these kids. the first thing they teach them as everyone thing in the past is bad but we can remake everything anew. you are not inviting them to think or to study and sure enough these elite colleges there are some great professors they are very smart. not great professors are increasingly uncomfortable this awawoken is an radical doctrines remember these doctrines amount to the claim that you can only know if you make. you coul cannot look up and beh. judaism does not work and that kind of world because judaism thanks there is this almighty god. and we have this history with him. we have the hard duty of being chosen by him that we have carried a message for the world
5:23 pm
all our lives. that is not something you can remake. and marx was a jew and he hated judaism. these doctrines alton militate against anything eternal. but remember, a college kid is in the last stage growing up they take four years and they get knowledge before they start their work. they need knowledge of things that last. not the cause of the day. it ruins them. because first of all you have to submit yourself everybody does every time you learn something i can tell you i have known mark levin for 400 years. and mark levin is a humble man and some important respects despite his obvious aggressiveness. he takes care. he thanks he ought to know hume's to read and write serious books that is an act of
5:24 pm
aggression sure. also an act of obedience. i had a kid say to me one time if i come to hillsdale we respect my opinion and i said yeah we don't care about that very much. everybody laughed at him in the room and he said isaac we respect mine? you don't even know what it is. the purpose of college is to turn an opinion into knowledge you can look at the demonstrators and these cannot function they are not about that task anymore they have abandoned them then i feel bad of course i feel bad for the jewish students. i feel bad for these demonstrators because they are young people and have been radicalized and could not know very much they are never going to learn.
5:25 pm
they have been taught they don't need to know. their natural interest in knowing the truth has been suppressed through doctrines. they have been turned into violent people. that is what we are paying for in that is what is invading our . >> when we return christopher joines meet to discuss the evils of awoken is him in his book america's culture revolution. we will be right back. oh, we got a weathertech gift card! weathertech is the perfect gift for everyone. may i?

5:31 pm
let me ask you a question. they controlled the culture now, don't they? >> they do this is part of the long long-standing campaign on e left. in the late 60s and early 70s the radical left that they can violently overthrow the u.s. government. that certainly collapsed in the next in administration. then they devised a new plan the long march of the institutions taking control of all of our elite commercial production from the inside and that is exactly what we have done. this book traces that from that beginnings, the origins of the late 1960s all the way to the explosion of the revelation of these trends during george floyd. it's not by accident conservatives feel besieged all of these institutions. part of a plan something i worked expose the book. mark: this a plan was really developed by italian communists, by german communists that had an enormous influence on our
5:32 pm
communists. our universities and colleges that you point out here. the plan was to not violently overthrow americorps any democracy even though that would be great if you could tell me if i am wrong they say that people are not going to rise up and overthrow this place. lennon said it had to be top down. these others said we've got to calm their cultural institutions. isn't that exactly what they doing? >> in fact of the 1970s the top neo- marxist philosopher wrote explicitly the working-class and middle-class in the united states was not just non- revolutionary but anti- revolutionary. meeting most middle-class americans of working-class americans were happy with the country. happy with its principles. they said we need to lead in elite revolution that unites intellectuals on campuses to put pressure into ways on the american public. to launder these radical ideas

of the same the open borders, academia, the democrat party and so forth? >> yes i think the common theme is it is a quality of resultant mandated government equality and the hatred of people who are successful or try to work hard and they follow customs and traditions of the united states. they do not like those people. i don't think they realize we are the only multiracial democracy in history that is ever worked. india is trying it, brazil is trying it with. mixed results. it's a very fragile idea. to make it work you have to have everybody except a common culture. they are superficial appearance has to be incidental not essential to who you are. and i keep saying diversity, diversity, diversity but historically there is no society that successful been diverse. iraq has not work, or wando hasn't worked, we have got to
