## Resource

In this episode of "The John Doyle Show," John begins by reacting to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt's recent statements on Fox News telling members of Gen Z to "pull themselves up by their bootstraps" and stop being so lazy. This comes in response to the increasing affinity for socialism among Gen Z, which is largely due to the fact that so many Gen Z Americans aren't even American at all. Then, John reacts to the widespread "teen takeovers" that occurred in major cities all over the United States during Independence Day weekend. Finally, John reacts to Hasan Piker using the term "theater kid" as a pejorative against conservatives. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
