ONE OF THE BIGGEST CONDUITS FOR WOKE FASCISM IS HOLLYWOOD. FOR THE DEMOCRAT PARTY, WOKE FASCISM MERELY SERVES TO AVERT ATTENTION TO THE PARTY'S MASSIVE PATH OF DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA.
Horowitz Interview: The Radical Mind
Freedom Center founder reveals the destructive plans of the Woke Left.
[Below is Ed Martin’s “Pro-America Report” interview with David Horowitz about his new book The Radical Mind: The Destructive Plans of the Woke Left. Order it HERE.]
Ed Martin: Ed Martin here on the Pro America Report. Time to check in with David Horowitz, who is a prolific author – legendary, really – activist and an author. And his new book is The Radical Mind: The Destructive Plan of the Woke Left. There’s almost nobody better, with about 50, 60 years of active engagement with the Left as he started out on that side of the aisle and came across. And again, the book is Radical Mind: The Destructive Plan of the Woke Left. Welcome back, David Horowitz, New York Times bestselling author of many, many books.
So, David, before we get into the book – but I think it overlaps – do you, when you see the forces arrayed now in opposition to Trump, and let’s just assume for the argument he gets the nomination. They can’t let him win, right? I mean, that’s part of the destruction. They just have to stop it, don’t they?
David Horowitz: Yeah. It’s life and death for them, Ed, and it’s personal too, because they’re all criminals. When I say all, I mean the leadership of the Democrat Party. So they all fear that they’re going to go to jail if he gets elected. So they have powerful incentives to fix the election, which they’re very good at. And which Republicans are really poor at preventing.
EM: David Horowitz, do you think – and the book is The Radical Mind: The Destructive Plans of the Woke Left – I have heard recently, David, people say the woke movement has sort of slowed. It’s even, people say, you know, it’s petering out. I assume based on your book, you don’t think that’s right at all?
DH: Not even based on my book – all I have to do is turn on the news. Our universities are Nazi indoctrination centers now, and I use that word advisedly, that they have all these young people brainwashed to support a second Holocaust.
My book is a lot – The Radical Mind is a lot about how leftists think or don’t think. How is it that we have this generation and its massive – I mean, let’s not ignore the actual threat. Its massive that supports the Nazi agenda, which is the extermination of the Jews. Probably the most unthinkable result possible. And what could be worse than reviving the Nazi virus in our educational system and in our streets?
And you know there are going to be terrorist attacks because Biden – I can’t say enough about Joe, what a reprehensible person Joe Biden is, but he’s opened our borders. So we have 8 million people here who are unvetted. And if you were the head of a terrorist operation, would you not – how could you resist taking advantage of this situation?
So I see very dark days ahead. My book The Radical Mind is really how radicals think. People who have never been ideologues – and that’s conservatives generally – have a very hard time understanding the radical thought process. And so their reactions are, “This is crazy. This is, you know, surreal. It’s out of touch with reality.” Chuck Schumer, for whom I have very little or respect, gave a speech about the persecution of the Jews because the Democrat Party is threatened by the divisions over supporting Hamas.
And what he did was, he went through the facts of how Israel was created and how the Jews have been persecuted for thousands of years and so forth. And this, I guarantee you, fell on deaf ears among, people who’ve been to Harvard.
EM: We’re talking with David Horowitz, the author of the new book The Radical Mind. He’s, of course, a New York Times bestselling author. And I should have said at the beginning, he’s the founder and CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center out in California, has some great people on his team that do a great job.
DH: Here’s the way the Left doesn’t think; the Left formulates an abstraction. In this case, “colonial settler,” the Jews are “colonial settlers.” The minute you hear that, if you’re a leftist, you know what side you’re on. You’re on the side of the resistance and liberation movement, to free the occupied and oppressed from the occupiers. There’s no reality whatsoever to that claim of occupation. It’s a complete fiction. When Israel was created, there were no Palestinians. There was no people in the Middle East calling themselves Palestinian.
The national identity “Palestinian” was invented in 1964. Israel was created in 1948. The Palestine Symphony in 1948 was a Jewish symphony. Palestine is not even an Arab word. It’s a Latin word. And the Roman Empire imposed it on this area, which was the homeland of the Jews. That’s the West Bank today, Judea and Samaria.
Jews are the only indigenous people there. The Roman Empire imposed the term “Palestine” as a derivative of “Philistine.” The Philistines were enemies of the Jews, and the Arabs just picked it up a thousand years later to use it as a weapon because everybody’s on the side of self-determination, anti-colonial liberation, and resistance to oppression. You hear this “occupied Palestine” crap everywhere among the indoctrinated. This is a complete fiction.
EM: David, David Horowitz, our guest. David, I’ve got 2 minutes left. I want to ask you this question.
DH: All right.
EM: You mentioned earlier that people who have not been ideologues or in an ideology or are kind of extreme can’t understand the mindset. Here’s my question: are too many Americans too far from that reality to get mobilized? I mean, one of the problems is, if you don’t think it’s an existential threat –
DH: When you invite 8 million unvetted, you know there’s going to be consequences. And there have been. And that’s why Biden’s poll ratings are so low. And I think most people understand that Biden is a traitor, that, you know, takes the $20 or $50 million, however much it is, distributed among his family and himself, and sells out his country to China and other enemies of the United States.
You don’t get $20 million payments for nothing. And if something is legitimate, you don’t create 20 shell corporations to hide the identities of the source of the payments and the recipients. It’s so obvious how guilty this man is. He makes Benedict Arnold look like a Boy Scout.
Golden Globes Fail: CBS Broadcast Slammed as ‘Unfunny,’ ‘Near-Total Disaster,’ a ‘New Low’
The verdict is in and the Golden Globes Awards on Sunday was an unqualified disaster.
Despite non-stop hype from CBS — Hollywood is back! Diversity! Jo Koy! (who?) — the broadcast fell flat on its face, with even the mainstream entertainment media deeming it as “unfunny,” a “near-total disaster,” and a “new low.”
Sunday’s primetime broadcast was meant to be a reboot of sorts for the beleaguered and rating-challenged awards show. CBS took over from NBC, seeking to rebrand the annual party as a new and improved version of the quasi-shady and ethically suspect awards-season ritual that just two years ago became the black sheep of Hollywood.
But despite the strong presence of numerous A-list stars, not to mention the Barbenheimer, the show struck many as a fiasco.
Vanity Fair magazine — not exactly a publication disinclined toward having a good time at a celebrity party — called the broadcast a “near-total disaster,” describing host Jo Koy’s strenuous opening monologue as a “horrid, sophomoric mishmash of lazy jokes” that failed to elicit much laughter.
“A cynical, grasping ceremony is nothing new for the Globes, but this year felt particularly desperate,” the magazine’s awards show axiom Richard Lawson concluded.
The New York Post called Sunday’s broadcast “godawful” and a “new low” for the show.
“Wow, was this shindig agonizing. The evening was unbearably unfunny and had just two or three great speeches over three long hours,” the paper concluded.
“The best reform the Globes could possibly make next, for the sanity of everybody at home, is to just call it quits.”
Britain’s The Telegraph called the show a “disaster.”
“This abominable orgy of backslapping and anti-humour has no reason to exist,” the paper said.
Sunday’s three-hour telecast crowned Oppenheimer and Poor Things as the best movies of the year, while also heaping honors on the series Succession and The Bear.
Barbie was mostly shut out, though it did manage to snag the Globes’ new award called “best cinematic and box office achievement” — a category clearly designed to juice viewership.
Last year’s show managed to draw a paltry 6.3 million viewers — an all-time low for the Globes.

Report Says Golden Globes Organizers Are Praying Celebrities Won’t Get Political
Organizers of the ratings-challenged Golden Globes Awards are praying that celebrities won’t get political and start grandstanding during Sunday’s live CBS broadcast, according to a new report.
This year’s ceremony comes during an election year in which former President Donald Trump is leading the incumbent Joe Biden in many polls. In addition, the Israel-Hamas war has become a divisive issue among Hollywood stars.
“Everyone is hoping it won’t get too political,” an unnamed source told Page Six.
While stars will not be censored, another source told the publication: “Everyone is hoping that the Globes will bring glamour and fun and Hollywood back to the world. It’s truly needed.”
Sunday’s show will feature celebrity nominees and presenters known for their left-wing activism — Robert De Niro, Mark Ruffalo, Don Cheadle, Julianne Moore, America Ferrera, and climate change activist Leonardo DiCaprio are all expected to be on hand.
Last year’s Golden Globes was a ratings fiasco.
The broadcast managed to draw a paltry 6.3 million viewers — an all-time low for the Globes.
Like other Hollywood awards shows, the Globes is contending with dwindling viewers as tens of millions of Americans are opting to avoid the garish display of left-wing Hollywood self-worship.
Past Globes ceremonies have seen left-wing celebrities using the show to lecture the American public on social and political issues.
Meryl Streep once bashed Trump, while Michelle Williams delivered a pro-abortion rant.
Last year’s host Jerrod Carmichael opened the broadcast with a long, awkward monologue about diversity.
This year, comedian Jo Koy will host the show.

Nolte: ‘Existential Crisis’ as Woke Hollywood Loses 20% of Moviegoers
The COVID pandemic is three years in the rearview and still being blamed for Hollywood losing 20 percent of moviegoers.
“One out of every five moviegoers has vanished since the pandemic, according to research compiled by one Hollywood studio,” reports the far-left Hollywood Reporter. “Whether they’ll ever return to see a film on the big screen is anyone’s guess — and, if they do, when.”
Compared to the last pre-pandemic year of 2019, the domestic box office is down 21 percent.
The lengthy article is full of facts and figures. It also accidentally answers the question it asks about why this is happening and how to fix it, but it never acknowledges the answer.
The answer is right here: Spider-Man: No Way Home, Barbie, Oppenheimer, John Wick 4, Top Gun: Maverick, and Sound of Freedom. Those titles were monster hits during and after the pandemic for one very simple reason: people wanted to see them.

The idea that the reasons behind this drop in moviegoing ranks is a whodunnit is absurd. The titles above prove that people will still turn out in droves if they find something appealing. So, how can anyone still blame the pandemic for the drop in moviegoing? If the pandemic was to blame, nothing could succeed in theaters.
Plus, Taylor Swift’s big 2023 concert tour proves the moviegoing demo isn’t afraid to congregate or come out of their homes. She’s packing them in up to the rafters.

The article also suggests moviegoers are tired of aging franchises. How can that be true when the fifth biggest global blockbuster of 2023 was the tenth chapter in the 24-year-old Fast & Furious franchise?
The article suggests moviegoers are tired of superheroes. How can that be true when Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 was 2023’s fourth biggest global blockbuster?
Audiences worn out by franchises and superhero movies would not go to see any aging franchise or superhero movie. Fast X and Guardians became hits because people wanted to see them. But why Fast X and Guardians 3, and not Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny? Another simple answer… Dial of Destiny emasculated and shamed its hero with an unappealing girl sidekick, while Fast X and Guardians 3 remained true to their characters and what made them iconic.

The “existential” truth, and we all know it, is this: Ever since Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016, Hollywood has sought to punish, insult, and alienate Trump voters (half the country) by way of cinematic tantrums that scold and dehumanize us due to our gender, faith, political beliefs, and overall normalcy.
Hollywood’s insane crusade against decent people (and decency) hit warp speed after the murder of George Floyd with a legion of movies where no one behaves or interacts normally. In order to push its social and political agenda, everyone’s a simple-minded stand-in for us evil normal people or the oh-so noble BIPOCLGBTQTARDs. Disney is now “queering” our children. Indiana Jones is criticized as a colonialist. Luke Skywalker is a child murderer. Buzz Lightyear is a GLAAD crusader. Thor learns to wear an apron.

Jack Knudsen / Breitbart NewsOn top of that, movie after movie tells us sexual deviancy, mental illness, and narcissism are virtues. Worst of all, our heroes, the very characters that made these franchises golden geese for decades, are deconstructed, portrayed as bigots, and replaced with girls and racial minorities for no good reason other than tokenism. Sometimes, as the Equalizer franchise proved, there is a good reason — Denzel Washington is awesome. Mostly, though, the tokenism is so ham-handed and off-putting that the bad taste in our mouths tells us not to bother purchasing a ticket.
There’s no mystery here: movies suck.
