Guest: Robert Ratonyi is a Holocaust survivor, born in Budapest in January 1938. His father was conscripted into a Hungarian labor battalion in 1942 and never returned; his mother was taken in October 1944 and survived a labor camp in Austria. He lived through the Budapest ghetto and the Swedish protected houses as a six-year-old, escaped Hungary after the 1956 uprising, reached the Massachusetts Institute of Technology by 1961, and built a career and a business in Atlanta. He has spoken to students for sixteen years on behalf of the Georgia Commission on the Holocaust and the William Breman Jewish Heritage and Holocaust Museum, and is the author of From Darkness into Light: My Journey Through Nazism, Fascism, and Communism to Freedom, whose royalties go to an educational charity.

Key topics:

• 1938: the Anschluss, Kristallnacht, and why his father decided there would be no more children

• Why Hungary joined Hitler, and why the Hungarian Holocaust did not begin until 1944

• 1942: his father conscripted into a labor battalion when Robert was four; he never saw him again

• Eichmann in Budapest, March 1944: the Jews of the provinces deported in six weeks, most to Auschwitz

• Yellow star houses, and the night of October 10, 1944, when soldiers took the adults and left the children

• Julia, his mother's friend, and the walk through a bombed-out Budapest to his grandparents

• The ghetto: twenty-five city blocks, a ten-foot wall, four gates, and a pile of jewelry on the sidewalk

• The Swedish Schutzpass issued under Raoul Wallenberg, and the cousin in an Arrow Cross uniform who got the family out of the ghetto

• The Arrow Cross raids: show the pass, hand over the jewelry, or be taken to the Danube

• The last room, on Kazinczy Street: ten people on the floor, no windows, and a fifteen-year-old cousin bartering for food without his yellow star

• Too weak to carry the grinder, then too weak to walk: carried back into the ghetto on his grandfather's back

• January 18, 1945: the soldiers at the window were Russian, and the crowd was shouting the word for bread

• July 1945: word that his mother had survived the labor camp at Lichtenwörth

• 34 genocides in the twentieth century, and the one thing Ratonyi says none of them had in common

• The thin line between good and evil in every human heart, and why he says Hamas crossed it on October 7

• Why he says the Nazis tried to hide their crimes and Hamas did not

• Sixteen years of speaking: small-town Georgia halls, the students the Breman Museum buses in every year, and the Atlanta students who go to Auschwitz after hearing him

• The endowment that now carries his name, and the Catholic school that opened an institute on the history of antisemitism

• Lord Acton, Martin Niemöller, and the lesson Ratonyi leaves every audience: you cannot be apathetic

• Why he says the Constitution's divided power is the answer to the most dangerous thing in the world

Guest: Janice Trey is chairman of the board of The Epoch Times and NTD and the newspaper's immediate past CEO, a role she held until she found her successor. She was born in a forced labor camp during China's Cultural Revolution, where the Chinese Communist Party had sent her parents, both engineers, because they were educated. She came to the United States to study after the Tiananmen Square Massacre, earned two master's degrees, and served as an executive at five Fortune 500 and Global 500 companies. For nineteen years she and her husband, Dr. Torsten Trey, have worked to expose what the Party does to prisoners.

Key topics:

• Born in a forced labor camp: her parents were engineers sent to the countryside because they were educated

• First grade, second grade, third grade: cutting sugarcane, hauling fertilizer, and a bag of dropped crops that decided whether she could go to school

• One television for the entire camp, used twice: Mao Zedong's funeral and Zhou Enlai's funeral

• The grandfather who owned a bank, lost everything to the Party, and started over as a warehouse guard in Hong Kong

• A Christian school in Hong Kong at age ten, and the first time she heard a hymn instead of a song praising Mao

• Why communism sets children against parents and students against teachers, and why Trey says it survives on chaos

• Her mother's one question for every doctor: when did you train? If the answer is 1966 to 1976, she leaves

• Erase and replace: how the Party simplified Chinese characters and took the heart out of the word for love

• Seventy-seven years, a new target every era: landlords, the educated, the students of 1989, and Falun Gong since 1999

• Confucius Institutes in American schools, and the Party money Trey says the Department of Education found in US education

• Lawfare and paid inserts: China Daily in American newspapers, and why Trey says the New York Times coverage of a lawsuit against Shen Yun was orchestrated

• Wang Huning's America Against America: the playbook Trey says has guided three Chinese leaders

• Why Falun Gong practitioners are targeted for their organs, and the Falun Gong Protection Act now waiting on the Senate

• The one-child policy, and the difference between communism and totalitarianism

• North and South Korea, Taiwan and the mainland, Hong Kong: same people, different systems

• COVID, drones and power grids: why Trey says the Party sees the United States as an adversary by its existence

• Tiananmen Square, June 4, 1989, explained for young Americans who were never taught it

• The American dream from a labor camp to the boardroom, and the scorecard question Trey leaves for every American

• Calls to action: ask your senator to pass the Falun Gong Protection Act, and get out the vote at iwillsaveamerica.com

Guest: Orren Wang was born in rural China in the early 1960s, just after the famine of 1959 to 1962, to parents who never spent a day in school. His father taught himself to read and was recruited by the Chinese Communist Party as a township-level official; his mother was illiterate all her life and sent her children to a school carved out of the village ancestral hall. Wang taught himself English by radio, took part in the December 1986 student protest in his provincial capital and the nationwide 1989 democracy movement as a graduate student in Chengdu, Sichuan, and came to the United States as a student in 1994. He earned a master's degree in accounting at Western Kentucky University, is a Certified Public Accountant, became a Christian in China, and became a United States citizen fourteen years after he arrived. He has written a memoir about his life in China. This episode is part of The Jenny Beth Show's Surviving Communism series.

Key topics:

• Thirty-three days to Election Day: why The Jenny Beth Show is interviewing survivors of communism, and what the Democratic Socialists of America platform calls for

• The two underpinnings of socialism: no private ownership and central planning

• Shortage is the feature: a pound or two of brown sugar per family, once a year

• The firecracker craft his neighbors worked at night behind covered windows, and the officials who stormed in and took the tools

• Deng Xiaoping's 1979 reform: one year for the villagers to feed themselves once their hands were untied

• A father who taught himself to read outside his cousins' tutoring room and was recruited by the Party

• A mother who called herself blind with perfect vision, and the school in the ancestral hall

• Ten years with the universities closed: the Cultural Revolution and the professors sent to raise pigs

• His son, a UC Berkeley graduate who calls himself a socialist, and why Wang says China's growth proves the opposite

• December 1986: a local election with one Party-picked candidate, and the student protest it triggered

• Steel quotas, bribery and inflation: the corruption that set up 1989

• Why 1989 was nationwide, not just Beijing, and why the Party almost collapsed

• Voice of America, English learned by radio, and the campus bulletin board

• May 19, 1989: martial law declared at 11 PM, an all-night march in the rain in Chengdu, two weeks without a voice

• June 4, and why a low-profile student was never arrested

• TOEFL, the GMAT, and five years to find someone to sign an I-20

• Landing at Los Angeles International Airport with $1,000, and $900 by the time he reached campus

• Religious freedom right away: a Friday Bible study that was banned in China

• Two years to a job, fourteen years to citizenship, and why he backs President Trump's immigration policy

• With God, everything is possible: the billboard on Interstate 65 and the son he kept

• His warning to young Americans who want to abolish the police, ICE and the Senate

• No doctors in the countryside under socialism

• Free markets, antitrust, and why breaking up monopolies is a Republican idea

Since 2020 his group has produced free billboards for farmers and building owners along high-traffic roads, 103 of them in Ohio in 2024, and it is now offering them nationwide at freedomforallpac.org. He has worked alongside Jenny Beth Martin and Tea Party Patriots since the movement's first bus tour.

Guest: Dr. Kendra Biegalski is Chair of the DeKalb County Republican Party in Georgia. She is a nuclear engineer, a former homeschool mother, and has taught college classes at the undergraduate and graduate level and children with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Guest: Agnes Gibboney was born in Budapest, Hungary, about ten years after the communist regime took power, and was two years old when her parents fled with one suitcase in January 1957. Her family spent ten months in a refugee camp in Yugoslavia and thirteen years in Brazil before immigrating legally to the United States. Hungary stripped the family of its citizenship, and she was told at the immigration office in Los Angeles in 1977 that she was stateless. She returned to Budapest that year while the country was still communist, and many times since. She is an angel mom whose son Ronald was killed by an illegal immigrant, a 2020 candidate for Congress, and a public speaker on border security and the reality of life under socialism. This episode is part of The Jenny Beth Show's Surviving Communism series.

Key topics:

• Why every Hungarian conversation her parents had was about the same fear: a neighbor reports you, the police take you, no trial, no hearing, a forced labor camp

• Budapest in 1977: gray cars, bullet holes in the buildings, and an uncle who answered a question about communism with "shh"

• Stateless: how the Hungarian government took the family's citizenship, and what an immigration officer in Los Angeles told her it meant

• The first escape attempt: soldiers surround the family at the border and take the suitcase of cigarettes they meant to sell for food

• January 1957: a pharmacist friend's concoction puts a two-year-old to sleep, and her father jumps the border ditch into Yugoslavia with her in his arms

• The refugee camp, and the three siblings her parents lost

• Why they left: a father who was anti-communist and "speaking up too much"

• Thirteen years in Brazil, two lapsed applications, and the knock on the door that opened the American embassy in Rio

• The Communist Party moves a stranger into her parents' house: "Do you want me to report you?"

• Her mother left Hungary without saying goodbye to her own mother, afraid she would be reported; they never saw each other again

• Letters, and an international call arranged at the post office

• Life before communism: Margaret Island on Saturdays, lunch and a movie on Sundays

• The New York Times, 1950: milk products "disappeared completely" from Budapest, meat "as rare as eggs," and food exported to pay for the five-year plan

• One liter of milk a day for three children; one pound of meat a week for a family

• Baptism was against the law, so her godparents carried her through the back of the church

• Bribing doctors, and waiting years for a replacement

• Stalin's statue, radio propaganda that said Americans were starving in the streets, and how the regime took from the rich, then the middle class, then the poor

• The Democratic Socialists of America pitch of no rent and no medical bills, and her question for every young person who believes it

• What a "free phone" from the government really costs

• Cuba today, and why she says socialism and communism are the same thing

• The utopia that never arrives: "coming soon"

• Her mother, who worshiped the United States and waited thirteen years to get here

• Her daughter's fear for her safety, and where Jenny Beth Martin says her courage comes from

• The Cal State San Bernardino student who learned communism was good from his professor and never checked

• Her charge to Americans born here: get an education, do your own research, stand up for this country

Guest: Sasha Gong is a former China director at Voice of America and a former China expert at the AFL-CIO. Born in China, she was sent to the countryside at nine, had three years of schooling before college, and spent a year in a Chinese jail as a young dissident before Xi Jinping's father ordered her group released. She went on to earn a PhD from Harvard, writes for American Greatness, and is now writing books and making films.

Guest: Jason Snead is Executive Director of the Honest Elections Project, which develops model election legislation, works it through state capitols and defends the resulting laws in court. He is a returning guest on The Jenny Beth Show. By his count this is the third election cycle in which the coalition he works with, including Tea Party Patriots Action, Heritage Action and Turning Point Action, has toured the country training conservatives to serve as poll workers and poll watchers. The tour has reached Texas, Ohio, Georgia and Nevada this year and arrives in Wisconsin on October 2 and 3.

Key topics:

• Jenny Beth Martin's call to action: ten ways to help this fall at iwillsaveamerica.com

• Every state sets its own voter registration deadline; Georgia closes a month before voting begins, Wisconsin allows same-day registration

• Handwritten postcards to voters, the easiest way to start getting out the vote

• Phone calls, texts, doors, volunteering for a local campaign, donating to candidates and recruiting friends

• Close races this fall may be decided by a few hundred votes or fewer

• The poll worker training tour: Texas, Ohio, Georgia and Nevada done, Wisconsin next

• Who has spoken at the events: Texas state Senator Bryan Hughes, Ohio's secretary of state, Georgia lawmakers and Representative Rich McCormick

• Ask who has worked a poll before and few hands go up: the trainings are built for first-timers

• You do not need experience to be a poll worker; you need a desire to see the law followed

• The hours: some states run shifts, others start at 5 AM and go until the job is done

• Your job is not to catch fraud; following the law and being present makes fraud less likely

• The Sally Smith example: the poll worker who knows the voter and forgets to ask for identification

• Nearly every state requires bipartisan teams to handle ballots, and blue counties are short on conservatives

• Blueberries in the tomato soup: why the tour targets blue areas surrounded by red

• Election integrity is now part of the conservative platform, not a one-and-done issue

• Consent of the governed, and consent of the losers: why every voter has to trust the count

• Wisconsin: October 2 in Brookfield, October 3 in Green Bay, dinner served, legislators invited

• The coalition partners, from Heritage Action to the American Constitutional Rights Union

• What Wisconsin stands to lose if its election safeguards are unwound
