Are you ready?

2
00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:03.240
Yeah, Okay, let's do it.

3
00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:07.440
Ill Martinez Live a program about current events.

4
00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:11.160
Our culture, our values, our politics, and our future.

5
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:16.719
And now Bill Martinez, Well, good morning America. Six minutes

6
00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:18.719
after the top. They are right now Bill Martinez here

7
00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:22.120
with Landmark Legal. Mike O'Neil. Hey, my, good morning, good morning.

8
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:24.440
Could to be with you, Bill, Hey, great being with you.

9
00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:30.199
A lot going on here. Swallwell implodes on himself. It's ironic.

10
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:32.759
I mean, this is kind of you know, his own

11
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:35.799
domicles sword. I guess maybe he just thought that it

12
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:38.840
would never fall on him. But you know, the thing

13
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:43.000
about the Democrats and the party itself, the apparatic is

14
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:45.719
they've been known to eat their own, haven't they.

15
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:50.240
Absolutely, they're ruthless. Absolutely, it doesn't matter what kind of

16
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:53.479
what you've done, or what you're doing, or what kind

17
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:58.719
of you know, salacious activities you're engaging in. My take

18
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:00.920
on it is if the the more you engage in

19
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:04.000
that sort of thing, the more opportunities the powers that

20
00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:06.879
be in the Democrat Party have to obtain leverage over

21
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:10.560
you and control you. And then what that means is

22
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:14.760
when you have when you've engaged in affairs with spies,

23
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:17.319
with Chinese spies. We all knew that that wasn't enough

24
00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:19.200
to get you kicked out of Congress. It's got an

25
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:21.920
open secret in Washington, DC that he's a slime ball.

26
00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:26.400
Being a slam ball necessarily doesn't necessarily exclude you from Congress,

27
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.519
but it certainly gives others who add thesaries or those

28
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.319
who want to control your actions an opportunity to obtain

29
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:36.640
leverage over you. And he was, you know, he was

30
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:40.200
allowed to occupy his seat in Congress until such time

31
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:43.560
as he became a liability, and the liability was obvious, right,

32
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:46.439
there was a potentiality they have. They had ranked choice

33
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:51.480
voting in California. It looked like Republicans were poised to

34
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:55.319
occupy both of the top selections for the governors for

35
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.000
the governor's seat, excluding all of the Democrats, because the

36
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:03.200
number of Democrats in the field were nullifying their votes

37
00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:05.760
and not allowing them to migrate up to the top.

38
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:07.959
So you had to cut off, uh, you had to

39
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.080
take some action, and we could. We can't have a

40
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.960
Republican Republican governor of California, absolutely not. That's a one

41
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.240
party can state. So that's beyond them. So what do

42
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:17.800
we have to do. We're gonna be ruthless and we're

43
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:20.360
gonna cut. We're gonna cut Eric Swaba. Katie Porter, who's

44
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.240
running for governor too, has there's there's all kinds of

45
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:26.039
dirt on her. I mean, she's a terrible person. She

46
00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:29.599
she abuses her staff, she poured, she she assaulted her

47
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:32.400
ex husband. I mean, she's an awful, awful person, and

48
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.840
yet she's still being allowed to run for for for

49
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.840
the for for her governors, governor in Congress. So it's

50
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.599
just it's it's just a demonstrative of the ruthlessness of

51
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.240
the Democrats and the extent to which they engage in

52
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:47.960
rampant politicization of virtually everything in their efforts to obtain

53
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:50.800
uh and to contain power and maintain power.

54
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:53.199
Well, it was interesting the way they orchestrated this, because

55
00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:55.000
I think a week earlier they kind of said, look

56
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.879
at we've got to call the herd here. We're putting

57
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:02.159
our control of the govern office in jeopardy. We've got

58
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:05.919
too many players on the field, so we're going to uh,

59
00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:09.919
you know, give you an opportunity to get out of

60
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:12.919
the race. Well within short period of time, then all

61
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:16.439
of a sudden this leaks out like it's just been

62
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:19.039
sitting there waiting. I mean, you even had a reporter

63
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:23.080
in the Bay Area that had the information what uh

64
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:27.120
six seven years ago, and gave it to a fellow

65
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:29.680
reporter because said, well, it's not my beat, you know,

66
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:33.240
so it's not my responsibility. So she handed over somebody else,

67
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:36.400
and you know, it goes, it goes along, you know,

68
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:40.360
the wayside. But I mean, and and also look when

69
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:43.520
you look at Swollwell's career with the Democrats, I mean

70
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:47.400
he was there. I guess they're henchmen, so to speak.

71
00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:49.800
I mean, going after Trump the way he did, and

72
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:54.759
also of course Bert Kavanaugh, even Brett Kevanaugh even worse yet.

73
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:58.719
Right, oh, absolutely, And and you can't it's a it's

74
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:03.960
a me. I'm always amazed at the the nerve and

75
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:07.400
the gall of these people, of these individuals to speak

76
00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:10.159
the way they speak. This, I mean, we we're not

77
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:13.560
getting into this, but Adam shift't. I wouldn't even want

78
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.319
to be in their presence. They are just such bold faced,

79
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:21.360
grotesque liars, right, I mean, really absolutely grotesque creatures. They're

80
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:25.319
not human beings. I don't normal people in our in

81
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:28.920
our culture. I lie, I feel terrible about it. I'm off,

82
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:33.040
I can't lie to people, and the bold place lie.

83
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:36.160
We're set aside all the terrible, awful things you're doing

84
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:38.560
daily in the way you treat people who acts like this.

85
00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:42.120
It's beyond it's beyond comprehension that this exists. But yet

86
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:46.120
these people continue to occupy powers, powerful positions in Washington, DC,

87
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:48.399
and I just want and.

88
00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:50.600
Look at their look at their career path. Whether I

89
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:53.319
mean you're talking Adam Shift. I think Adam Shift's day

90
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.199
of recompense is coming. You know, here you got Swallowell,

91
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.319
but you got Aviannatty, remember Avinatti?

92
00:04:58.839 --> 00:04:59.120
Yeah?

93
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:03.000
Yeah? These what I mean to me, they're like of

94
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:05.920
the same wolf and warf are they not? I mean,

95
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:09.560
people that just lie and I mean they're just so

96
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:13.199
it's really sad. It's a sad commentary, but it's also

97
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.680
a warning I think for all humanity is that this

98
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:20.319
is you know, these are attributes of power seeking individuals.

99
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:23.759
Yeah, narcissist. Yeah, And it's interesting and again I go

100
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.959
back to it is the ability of the Democrat Party

101
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:31.759
to mobilize. I kind of admire the flex in that

102
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.519
they can they can just move, they move and you know,

103
00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:39.399
end Mass, and they do what they they they will

104
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:42.120
do what's necessary. Let's talk. I mean, just briefly. We've

105
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:45.160
seen what's happened with the Pope and President Trump and

106
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.639
this dust up recently, and of course the Pope was

107
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:52.439
talking about Donald Trump's robust rhetoric regarding Iran. I'd like

108
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:53.879
to say, first of all, I think you have to

109
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:57.319
contextualize this. I want to say, just briefly for purposes

110
00:05:57.319 --> 00:05:59.800
of just bona FIDE's I'm I'm a practicing Catholic. I'm

111
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.439
a I joined at Villanova University. We share the same

112
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:04.600
the Pope and I share the same alma mater. In fact,

113
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.279
he lived in a dorm across the street from or

114
00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:09.600
across the way from the dorm I lived, and he

115
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.360
graduated twenty years earlier. But I have a lot of

116
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:16.079
affirmat a lot of a lot of inclination to be appreciative.

117
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:18.000
I recognize him of the Vicar of Christ and the

118
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.319
head of the church. All of this that being said,

119
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:26.480
he it's getting involved in this Trump and Pope politicization

120
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:30.680
is problematic. Let me just briefly touch on this. David Axelrod.

121
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:35.600
Reports are that David Axelrod, who is an Obama political operative.

122
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:37.439
He's probably one of the If you're going to take

123
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:40.360
a list of the Democrat operatives in the country, who's

124
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:42.959
who's in charge, who's running things, David Axelrod is always

125
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:44.959
going to be on your short list. Right, he met

126
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:48.399
with the pope. He's not Catholic. Right he met with

127
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:52.399
the pope last week or about a week ago. And

128
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:56.240
is it a coincidence that David Axelrod, one of the

129
00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:58.920
power brokers of the Democrat Party, meets with the pope

130
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:04.120
and then days later, a sixty minutes a story comes

131
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:08.920
out with prominent archbishops and bishops and cardinals talking about immigration.

132
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:13.160
And it is clear that the Democrats have recognized a

133
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.439
potential vulnerability, a political vulnerability, in the fact that young

134
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:20.240
people are going to matt are returning to the Catholic Church.

135
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:23.120
In bigger numbers than any other religion.

136
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:25.839
Right now, let me put a couple finer points on this.

137
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:29.360
Number One, it's gen Z. So gen Z and gen

138
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.160
X got Donald Trump elected. They did. They were the

139
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:35.879
demographics that that that turned out to push Donald Trump

140
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:38.199
over the edge. And when the popular and electoral vote,

141
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:40.360
if you look at the numbers, it wasn't boomers or millennials,

142
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:43.879
it was gen Z and gen X. Democrats recognize that

143
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.240
next next point on this is the who what gen

144
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:49.800
Zers are going back to? The are returning or are

145
00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:52.560
not returning but are entering the Catholic Church. The gen

146
00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:56.120
Zers in our cities, the quote unquote elite gen Zers.

147
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:01.040
It's not you know, it's gen Zers in New York City, Washington, Chicago,

148
00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:05.600
Los Angeles. These are a critical Democrats recognize this as

149
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:11.279
a critical and necessary constituency to ensure their power accumulation.

150
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:17.000
And if they don't, if they lose those folks to Republicans,

151
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:19.439
and it looks like, you know, they're trending towards Republicans,

152
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:21.199
because the more likely you are to go to church

153
00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.920
and or mass habitually or regularly, you're going to be Republican.

154
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:26.839
You're going to be less woke, You're going to be

155
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:29.959
less uh less susceptible to the leftist nonsense that comes

156
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.879
down the pike. That they understand that this is a

157
00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:36.279
valuable constituency that they that they have lost and that

158
00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:38.720
they need to get back. It's not just that they're

159
00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:40.519
gen Z. It's not just the numbers. It's also keep

160
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:42.279
in mind. It's also who are these kids? Who are

161
00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:44.679
these younger people? These are these are the these are

162
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:47.200
the people in the cities, young people in the cities.

163
00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:49.159
I hate to use the term elite, you know, I

164
00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:51.879
don't want to sound like that, but Democrats recognize them

165

This is Don Shank with today's global update from the

229
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:13.360
Tide Ministry, sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ worldwide in

230
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:16.720
the languages people were born to speak. Zimbabwe, Cameron, and

231
00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:21.000
Mozambique are facing an unprecedented brain drain as numerous educated

232
00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:24.799
professionals flee the floundering economy and emigrate to more lucrative

233
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.159
careers around the world. Those left behind lack the knowledge

234
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:30.960
and skills to fill the gap, resulting in a serious

235
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:34.600
industrial crisis. For those left struggling to survive, the message

236
00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:37.559
of the Gospel spoken in a language that they fully understand,

237
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:40.480
is a beacon of hope. That's why the Tide continues

238
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:43.360
to share the hope of Christ through powerful gospel broadcasts

239
00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:46.759
in the local languages. Facing an economic crisis and seeing

240
00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:49.279
no end in sight, it's easy to lose hope, but

241
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:52.679
believers know that no matter the situation at hand, Christ

242
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:55.799
will never forsake his children to learn how you can

243
00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:58.320
pray for and encourage people around the world whose lives

244
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:00.720
have been eternally impacted by hearing the good news of

Hey, we're back with you. Thanks for hanging in there.

268
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:15.279
Bill Martinez here with Mike O'Neil from Landmark Legal. All right, Mike,

269
00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:20.240
you were continuing on with explaining the power of you know,

270
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:25.360
the influential Zeer's and x's in in you know, in

271
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:26.600
urban America.

272
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:30.720
Yeah, and so the Democrats see this. They're not stupid.

273
00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:34.720
They're very attuned to the to the ways of politics here.

274
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:39.960
So they recognize an opportunity. Obviously, Donald I I completely

275
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:41.919
support what's going on with Iran right now. I think

276
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:46.279
it's going very well. But they they recognize an opportunity

277
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:50.080
to try to drive a wedge between Catholics and Donald

278
00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:54.600
Trump and Conservatives and Republicans, right, and so they weaponized

279
00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:58.600
religion and they went to David Axrod met with the Pope.

280
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:00.600
And I was, I was, I was gonna wear that.

281
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.679
That's that's interesting. And then no, sooner does he have

282
00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:06.320
he meets with him, and then the Pope goes out

283
00:15:06.360 --> 00:15:09.240
of his lane. I mean to me that to me, Mike,

284
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:11.559
it was a little bit like it was a bit

285
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:14.320
of a setup. It was almost like I wanted to

286
00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.720
tell the Pope, you know what you need to do

287
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:21.759
is you needed to talk to the tennis players that

288
00:15:21.799 --> 00:15:24.360
were approached by the media trying to get them with

289
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:27.720
a gotcha political question. They didn't bite it. They said, hey,

290
00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:29.480
I'm here, this is what I'm about. I'm here to

291
00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:33.559
play tennis. You know the Pope Unfortunately, uh, you know,

292
00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:36.759
mishandled it. And of course well and and and to

293
00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:40.639
a degree, Mike, I would say that I'm saying mishandled.

294
00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:43.879
That's not that's not totally fair. But but the deal

295
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:46.440
is is that he he bobbled it in such a

296
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:48.320
way that it gave an opening to the media, and

297
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:50.159
the media took the ball and ran with it.

298
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:52.600
That's why I would I would go a little bit.

299
00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:55.480
I would I would put a little I would shift

300
00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:59.879
out a little bit. And that he is the media.

301
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:03.720
If the Pope has asked a question about aggressive language,

302
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:06.080
that the aggresive language of Donald Trump is using, right,

303
00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:10.480
and he's using that aggressive language on Iran. In order

304
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:12.840
to convey a message, he has to speak to the

305
00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:15.320
powers that be in Iran in a language they understand.

306
00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:20.440
This isn't nuanced diplomats, you know in France trying to

307
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:23.799
you know, trying to work out all of the nuances

308
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:26.919
of this high level negotiation. This is you're dealing with

309
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:29.399
a radical theological death cult.

310
00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:31.600
Yeah, you're you're battling with a bully.

311
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:34.559
You have to speak in their language.

312
00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:35.399
Exactly get through to them.

313
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:39.159
I will destroy you if you don't. That's it, And

314
00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:41.320
that's how they You can't say, well, you can't. You

315
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:43.600
can't speak like, you know, like some sort of snooty

316
00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:47.039
French diplomats with nuances. There's no nuance here. It's like,

317
00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:49.639
if you don't do this, I will kill you. That's it,

318
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:51.799
and that's how you that's that's how you accomplish a

319
00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:53.080
diplomatical well.

320
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:56.519
Of course, because that's what they've been saying for decades, right, that's.

321
00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:59.039
The language they speak. You speak to the language if

322
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:01.000
you want to break through them. You don't try to

323
00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:02.919
like you're not subtle with it. You say, I'm gonna

324
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:05.039
I'm going to level your country and if you don't

325
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:06.960
do this, and then you show the bombers in the

326
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:10.160
air leveling your country, and that's how you unders that's

327
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:12.079
how that's how you you get and if you.

328
00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:14.039
Got pictures of where they live, you bring out the

329
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:15.480
pictures where they live, right.

330
00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:18.640
He said, Anymore, if you want to accomplish this, if

331
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:21.039
you want to accomplish a diplomatic goal, in other words,

332
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:25.000
peace in this point and not reduce the entire country

333
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:27.000
to glass, then this is the language you have to

334
00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:29.680
you know, well, of course, when the Pope is presented

335
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:32.640
with that language from his lane and his perspective and

336
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:35.119
the way he talks about this, of course he's going

337
00:17:35.160 --> 00:17:37.480
to say what he says, because he's the pontiff and

338
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:39.880
he's the Catholic, and he's going to always say, no,

339
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.400
we shouldn't do this, we need to do this, blah

340
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:42.960
blah blah.

341
00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:43.079
No.

342
00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:45.559
The Democrats know also that Donald Trump's going to respond

343
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:47.599
to that, right, and so he's going to respond to that.

344
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:49.359
And so now all of a sudden you have a

345
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.400
wedge issue and the media is given the opportunity to question. Look,

346
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:54.759
all you have to do is activate a media person,

347
00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:57.200
ask him about this. The Pope's on the plane, ask

348
00:17:57.319 --> 00:17:58.839
him about you. You don't even have to tell him

349
00:17:58.880 --> 00:18:00.319
to do it. You know they're going to do it,

350
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:03.359
And so they do it. And so what is occurring now, right,

351
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.279
and and so you have this, and then of course

352
00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:07.680
you have the other side of this, you have the

353
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:10.960
American bishops who are wedded to immigrants.

354
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:12.720
Yeah, exactly so.

355
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:15.599
And I'll admit it. I'm again I was a practicing Catholic.

356
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:17.759
But you have to acknowledge the truth here. There's a

357
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:22.319
pecuniary interest at play here by an administration and Democrats

358
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:26.640
give billions of dollars to these NGOs, including Catholic groups,

359
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:29.319
to a bet illegal immigration.

360
00:18:29.400 --> 00:18:32.079
Let's just be very frank, exactly exactly so.

361
00:18:32.240 --> 00:18:35.759
The bishops are not speaking from a position of just

362
00:18:36.039 --> 00:18:39.480
pure theological virtue on this. They might be, and and

363
00:18:39.519 --> 00:18:41.960
again there is that Catholic social teaching about helping the

364
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:45.000
poor and everything. However, I simply and so, but the

365
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:47.400
danger here becomes a couple of things. Number One, recognize

366
00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:49.400
this for what it is. This is the Democrats trying

367
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:52.119
to drive a wedge to drive young Catholics out of

368
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:55.519
the Republican party. Right, It's very clearly this is. And

369
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:57.720
if you don't believe, you don't see that, you need

370
00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:00.599
to wake up and understand it. Number Two, you understand

371
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:05.319
the machinations and the political operations of the Democrats is vicious.

372
00:19:05.359 --> 00:19:08.000
They will do whatever it takes to get power, i e.

373
00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:09.880
Salt swallow. So this is how it all kind of

374
00:19:09.920 --> 00:19:12.279
comes together. And the next thing is you have to

375
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:17.759
understand is that there is a cadre of Democrat elite

376
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:22.559
Catholics in Washington, d c. That operate with significant influence

377
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.400
over the US Conference of Catholic Bishops. And I kind

378
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:29.319
of have a little bit of knowledge. I just know

379
00:19:29.359 --> 00:19:31.160
about you gotta trust. I just kind of know this

380
00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:35.240
that there are elite Democrats who are very powerful Catholics

381
00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:37.799
who are Catholic, and very powerful Democrats who have a

382
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:42.240
lot of sway over the bishops. And again, you know,

383
00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:44.359
when you get into this, it's not it's not that

384
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:47.440
it's it's it's an assertion of political power. Here and

385
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:49.039
the last point here I want to make with this

386
00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:52.680
is how problematic it is once you start for this

387
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:55.839
these issues to be politicized, the pope to weigh into politics,

388
00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:02.759
because it invariably raises the issue well, who put justices

389
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:05.319
on the Supreme Court that overturned Roe versus Way, Donald

390
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:10.039
Trump who defunded Planned parenthood, Donald Trump who wants to

391
00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:12.640
who is a pro who is a pro life President

392
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:17.000
Donald Trump? What does what does Joe Biden do? He abets,

393
00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:19.240
he abets, he funds, planned pays well.

394
00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:22.920
By the way, Joe Biden and Catholic, a practicing Catholic

395
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:24.240
that I said needs more practice.

396
00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:28.079
And so when you get into this, the church opens

397
00:20:28.119 --> 00:20:31.240
itself up to these simple questions. Why does why does

398
00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:34.559
the pope not condemn the Mullahs who killed forty thousand

399
00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:38.960
innocent peoples? Why why does the Pope go to Algeria,

400
00:20:39.079 --> 00:20:41.920
by the way, which is the homeland of Saint Augustine,

401
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:44.039
which is the head of his order. He's in Augustin.

402
00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:47.039
But why does the Pope go to Algeria and take

403
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:50.480
his shoes off and then speak positively about a country

404
00:20:50.519 --> 00:20:55.039
that bans Christian proselyzation. In other words, if you proselytize

405
00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:58.720
on Christianity in Algega, exactly why does the president can

406
00:20:58.920 --> 00:21:00.960
or why doesn't the Pope condemned? My point being is,

407
00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:04.400
once you wad into these waters, you start to ask.

408
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:06.640
You have to ask tough questions. And these are the

409
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:11.359
tough questions you have to ask. So I I you

410
00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:13.000
have to see, you have to see this for what

411
00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:15.440
it is. This is Democrats trying to move the needle

412
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:18.119
here because they recognize a weakness in their part in

413
00:21:18.200 --> 00:21:21.119
the con in there, in there and heretofore, which has

414
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:24.440
been a reliable constituency, which is young people, and they

415
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:26.079
need to move them out of the They need to

416
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:28.599
they need to drive a wedge between Catholics and Republicans.

417
00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:29.480
And this is what it is.

418
00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:32.880
What's the crisis management move that Trump must make? I mean,

419
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:36.240
you know, it's it was so inopportunity that that meme

420
00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:39.039
that he put out that you know, some has suggested

421
00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:41.519
he was presenting himself as Jesus Christ, and.

422
00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:44.759
Yeah, it's stupid. And and the thing what sometimes you

423
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:47.640
know that you know, to you know, to his detriment

424
00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:50.880
sometimes Donald Trump, but he's a known quantity, you know

425
00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:53.880
when the pope. You the Democrats know when the Pope

426
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:56.119
says something about Donald Trump, Donald Trump's going to fire back,

427
00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:59.000
right they can. So they're like, okay, we're gonna gin

428
00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:01.720
up this this back and forth because we want to

429
00:22:01.759 --> 00:22:04.279
create this impression that Trump. And again, you know, there's

430
00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:06.720
an inopportune picture that he puts up some dumb social

431
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:09.160
media posts with a picture which is simply stupid and

432
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:11.119
always by the way it's taken down. But he should

433
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:13.839
admit that was dumb, dumb play. He's not He's not

434
00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:14.640
beyond approach.

435
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:16.640
Yeah, President is like he tried to come back and

436
00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:19.480
said he was trying to depict himself as a doctor

437
00:22:19.559 --> 00:22:21.359
or something silly.

438
00:22:21.880 --> 00:22:25.160
But the Democrats know your enemy, and they know that

439
00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:27.079
if they gin this up, that Trump's gonna come back.

440
00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:28.720
He has turned down the heat a little bit on this.

441
00:22:28.759 --> 00:22:30.839
I saw one of his more recent things and he said,

442
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:32.759
you know, but again it's pushing back a little bit.

443
00:22:32.759 --> 00:22:34.640
It's saying, hey, look are you going to acknowledge forty

444
00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:37.400
thousand people were killed in Iran? You know, forty thousand

445
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:40.319
peaceful protesters were killed, and I'm trying to stop them.

446
00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:42.559
There is just we could get into a just war

447
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:45.519
theory about this and get into it. But you know, again,

448
00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:49.000
the simple thing here is, don't believe what you're seeing.

449
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:52.240
Understand the powers that be that are operating to try

450
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:55.039
to manipulate this situation and take advantage of the situation,

451
00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:57.359
just like the Democrats took a let advantage of the

452
00:22:57.359 --> 00:23:00.920
situation with Eric Swallwell. They kept him around useful until

453
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:02.759
he wasn't useful for them. They cut him out when

454
00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:05.440
they needed when they need to secure the governorship of California,

455
00:23:05.599 --> 00:23:07.519
which is another story. We could talk about how terrible

456
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:11.480
that's going to be, but understand the same sort of thing,

457
00:23:11.519 --> 00:23:14.000
the same sort of political politics. The politics are at

458
00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:16.319
play here with with regards to Catholics and the Pope.

459
00:23:16.720 --> 00:23:20.119
Yeah, well you bring out some some excellent points here.

460
00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:23.319
And I have been talking to my Catholic brothers as

461
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:26.599
well to say, look, it just relaxed. You know, it's okay,

462
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:29.119
it'll it'll work itself out, and before you know it,

463
00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:31.680
the Pope will be at the White House and uh,

464
00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:34.920
you know, and maybe maybe he will say the opening

465
00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:37.839
prayer for the ballroom for Donald Trump. You know, we

466
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:41.559
can only we can only dream. But I mean, this

467
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:45.000
is a dust up. This is you know, the Pope

468
00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:49.039
isn't infallible on these types of issues. Other issues he

469
00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:53.920
is as they relate to to Catholic doctrine, but you know,

470
00:23:54.039 --> 00:23:57.319
look at in this case, it's another it's another opinion.

471
00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:00.119
But he needs to be I guess he needs and

472
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:02.960
support and counseling to say, man, if you're going to

473
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:06.880
share room in space and oxygen with Donald Trump, then uh,

474
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:09.799
maybe you need to take a breath for just a moment.

475
00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:12.559
And and maybe I don't even know if he understands

476
00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:15.839
that he was played by uh, you know, played by

477
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:17.200
actual Rod and the Democrats.

478
00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:21.039
I I just think I think if you ask him

479
00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:22.759
the issue, if you said, I think, if you if

480
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:26.000
you positive a direct question, was it did you you know,

481
00:24:26.640 --> 00:24:29.559
was was the support of planning parenthood? Do you think

482
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:31.880
American tax dollars should go to support planned parentdoid he'd

483
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:35.000
say no. Do you think that President Biden was wrong to,

484
00:24:35.359 --> 00:24:38.039
you know, to or President Obama was wrong to try

485
00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:41.240
to obligate little sisters of the poor, you know none

486
00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:45.000
nuns to buy birth control? I mean and he I'm

487
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:47.119
sure he'd ask you that, but nobody ever asks him that,

488
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:49.920
and it never rises to the level of of of

489
00:24:49.920 --> 00:24:52.920
of media of of course, not media consumption.

490
00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:56.039
So yeah, yeah, yeah, because they're looking for their tidbit

491
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:59.480
to run with, right, and it's that which fits the

492
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:02.480
narrative and the pistola of the Democratic Party.

493
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:03.359
Zip.

494
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:07.240
Absolutely yeah, got to leave it there. Mike O'Neil from

495
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:09.599

Good will you got it too? Cod Bye?

498
00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:15.000
How would you like to save money on nearly all

566
00:28:57.960 --> 00:28:59.839
How you doing, Betty, I'm doing great.

567
00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:05.920
I'm not too got keen on that former journalist Moniker, because.

568
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:09.079
That's what they said they were in the game. Well

569
00:29:09.359 --> 00:29:11.640
why were they putting former you know? I thought, well

570
00:29:11.640 --> 00:29:14.240
maybe no. Well, okay, what I'm gonna do is I'm

571
00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:16.720
going to x that out and say, of course he's

572
00:29:17.359 --> 00:29:18.680
still journaling.

573
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:23.119
Award winning journalist. Yeah, absolutely, I want to award in

574
00:29:23.279 --> 00:29:28.440
nineteen seventy. Yeah, the Golden Mike Award.

575
00:29:28.839 --> 00:29:31.400
Well, good for you, haven't I haven't had a repeat.

576
00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:35.799
Well, because it was so good back in seventy, why

577
00:29:35.799 --> 00:29:38.000
should why should we reproduce it?

578
00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:38.240
Right?

579
00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:38.720
Yess?

580
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:43.279
That's it, Yeah, that's it. I mean, anyway, let's get

581
00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:46.920
onto the business at hand. Eric Swalwell, Boy, the Democrats

582
00:29:46.960 --> 00:29:50.359
couldn't throw him off the boat fast enough. Huh.

583
00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:52.480
What took him so long? Yeah?

584
00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:55.319
Well, they were looking for somebody because it was looking

585
00:29:55.359 --> 00:29:57.599
pretty scary there in California. I mean, the Democrats were

586
00:29:57.640 --> 00:29:59.799
canceling themselves to the point that it was going to

587
00:29:59.839 --> 00:30:03.599
look like because of that jungle election they have there

588
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:05.720
in California, like they were going to end up with

589
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:08.799
two Republicans. Can you imagine that in a uni party

590
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:10.319
state like California.

591
00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:16.480
Well, politics comes up and produces strange results.

592
00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:18.279
I'm just glad to be British.

593
00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:18.759
Walwell.

594
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:22.000
You know, a couple of years ago, I had the

595
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:26.880
three m's that I wanted to see disappear from the

596
00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:34.119
national landscape, McConnell, McCarthy and McDonald. And it took a while,

597
00:30:34.319 --> 00:30:39.039
but by gosh, they were gone, right, And I you know,

598
00:30:39.079 --> 00:30:44.480
they're human beings, so I don't celebrate their loss, but

599
00:30:44.640 --> 00:30:46.839
I am glad that they're no longer part of the

600
00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:48.000
national conversation.

601
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:49.440
And now I've.

602
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:55.160
Got the three s's, Struck, Schwalwell and Shift Shift. Yes,

603
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:57.680
so one down, two to go. Now Struck is no

604
00:30:57.759 --> 00:31:01.000
longer in government, so that's a good thing. Why would

605
00:31:01.279 --> 00:31:06.960
MS now, I think they call themselves hire and pay

606
00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:09.599
a certified liar.

607
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:12.160
Yeah, he knew that.

608
00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:16.480
The Russia Russia Russia deal was a complete hoax, Yet

609
00:31:16.759 --> 00:31:20.000
while he was the assistant director of the FBI, he.

610
00:31:21.519 --> 00:31:24.720
Tried to prosecute people and.

611
00:31:24.680 --> 00:31:30.079
Did effectively prosecute some people like Roger Stone, exactly. And

612
00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:33.799
Roger Stone, as he famously says, how could I have

613
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:38.720
been convicted about lying about something that never even happened?

614
00:31:39.079 --> 00:31:39.680
Exactly?

615
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:43.160
Yeah, he paid such a huge price. And that's the

616
00:31:43.240 --> 00:31:45.880
thing that really bothers me about these people. And you

617
00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:48.319
look at the January sixth.

618
00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:51.400
I was gonna say, another case in point fifteen hundred

619
00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:54.279
people whose lives try they effectively ruined.

620
00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:55.519
Many of them they ruined.

621
00:31:55.839 --> 00:31:57.559
Can we ever make them hold John?

622
00:31:58.599 --> 00:31:59.400
I wish we would.

623
00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:02.000
I mean you and I started GoFundMe page and see

624
00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:03.200
how much money we can raise.

625
00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:04.960
Well, I think we need to put pressure.

626
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:05.960
We'll give it to him.

627
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:09.279
Hey, for all this money the FBI captures and everything

628
00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:11.880
like that, we'll do like Trump, We'll divert you know,

629
00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:14.400
some tariff money, some of that money that they get

630
00:32:14.440 --> 00:32:17.920
from you know, drug runners and whatever, and diverted into

631
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:21.160
a campaign that makes these people whole. I mean, even Flynn.

632
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:22.920
You know, they took care of Flynn a little bit,

633
00:32:23.160 --> 00:32:26.240
but even then it wasn't you know, what was it

634
00:32:26.319 --> 00:32:28.039
like a million and a half or something million?

635
00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:30.920
A million two fifty I think to be exact, and

636
00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:38.319
near compensated him for the harm that he endured. Financially,

637
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:41.480
reputationally in career, and.

638
00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:44.160
Yeah, here's a hero, John, here's a hero one point

639
00:32:44.200 --> 00:32:47.200
twenty five. And then you get somebody like George Floyd,

640
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:50.200
they gets twenty seven million. What's wrong with this picture?

641
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:53.640
Well, it's just the messed up world we live in.

642
00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:58.039
And it's it's very worrisome that, you know, people can

643
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:06.720
get large award, but it usually their minorities. And I

644
00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:11.160
don't know, it's what I see that's wrong with this

645
00:33:11.240 --> 00:33:12.400
country today.

646
00:33:12.799 --> 00:33:13.559
And we talk.

647
00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:22.559
About Democrats, Republicans, liberals, Conservatives, Christians, Jews, agnostics go down

648
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.920
the list, but it really is a war that we

649
00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:29.960
are engaged in between the haves and the have nots.

650
00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:33.880
Since two thousand and six, I've worked in the inner

651
00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:38.960
city of Atlanta. I've given thousands of dollars and thousands

652
00:33:39.039 --> 00:33:42.480
of hours of my time for the worst zip code

653
00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:49.440
in America works for HIV per capita, obesity, disease, poverty, homelessness,

654
00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:50.799
of literacy, jobless.

655
00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:52.759
Are you going to tell me, John that, Are you

656
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:54.480
going to tell me that Stacy Abrams didn't give you

657
00:33:54.519 --> 00:33:56.200
a little bit of that two billion dollars that she

658
00:33:56.240 --> 00:33:57.880
got from Biden to help you out for such a

659
00:33:58.039 --> 00:33:58.759
just cause.

660
00:33:58.759 --> 00:34:01.200
Not a penny in fact, that that would get us

661
00:34:01.759 --> 00:34:04.599
going down another branch, which I'm happy to talk about.

662
00:34:04.680 --> 00:34:06.839
But we were there to help people, and there were

663
00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:12.400
people there in leadership that picketed us and rich buckhead

664
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:15.679
Man go home after we had received a very nice

665
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:19.599
award from the Trust for Public Land and Cox Broadcasting

666
00:34:19.960 --> 00:34:22.280
for the work that we had done there. And they

667
00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:25.679
wanted the nigh Those people wanted the neighborhood to change

668
00:34:26.039 --> 00:34:29.840
and did not want improvement because that was their power base.

669
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:34.280
That Ivy Young, the late Ivory Young, who was a

670
00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:36.920
good friend of mine, he was a city council council

671
00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:41.039
person in Atlanta, called them the poverty pimps. So you

672
00:34:41.159 --> 00:34:46.000
think this work should be easy, but it's just not so.

673
00:34:47.920 --> 00:34:48.119
Well.

674
00:34:48.119 --> 00:34:50.480
I was going to say, the war that we're waging

675
00:34:50.639 --> 00:34:53.239
is not between all those people. It's the haves and

676
00:34:53.280 --> 00:34:55.920
the have nots, and that that's what's going on in

677
00:34:55.960 --> 00:34:59.039
New York. Mandamie wants to take from the rich and

678
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:01.800
give to the poor so he can have political power.

679
00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:06.719
It's just that simple, and is also wrong because it

680
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:13.039
doesn't help the beneficiaries at all. Instead, they become resentful.

681
00:35:13.079 --> 00:35:14.719
I mean, just look at the people that have won

682
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:17.559
millions of dollars in the lottery. You'd think they would

683
00:35:17.559 --> 00:35:20.639
be happy and they would be philanthropic and sending their

684
00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:21.119
kids and.

685
00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:22.559
People to school. But they're not.

686
00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:26.360
They'll become bitter, resentful and want to know why they

687
00:35:26.360 --> 00:35:27.760
can't get more money.

688
00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:30.559
Right exactly, and they end up losing that money almost

689
00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:32.400
as fast as they get it. I mean, the sad

690
00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:35.639
stories and testimonies of these people that have experienced that

691
00:35:35.760 --> 00:35:39.679
kind of windfall profit because they're not prepared, they don't

692
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:43.280
have any education or upbringing of how to handle millions

693
00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:47.960
of dollars right to manage it. Well, it's it's like

694
00:35:48.000 --> 00:35:50.599
professional ballplayers, right, I mean, you hear all these stories

695
00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:55.239
about these these great ballplayers that are broken, are you know,

696
00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:57.679
homeless and what have you. It just breaks your heart

697
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.000
to think about it. But you know, this is why

698
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:03.599
you need to have some wife's counsel around you. But

699
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:05.440
going back to what you were saying earlier in terms

700
00:36:05.480 --> 00:36:07.880
of that has and have not, so I've said it's

701
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:13.719
it's a battle between America and anti Americans and and

702
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:16.400
and at the very root, because this is a root issue,

703
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:19.480
as you cited, and what we need to do is

704
00:36:19.519 --> 00:36:22.840
get down to the root issue and bore that thing

705
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:25.519
out of there and understand, at the end of the day,

706
00:36:25.639 --> 00:36:28.480
what are we you know, what are we clamoring for?

707
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:30.840
What do we need? And you know here you are?

708
00:36:30.920 --> 00:36:32.920
I mean you promote the truth. We promote the truth.

709
00:36:33.199 --> 00:36:35.239
We pursue the truth no matter where it leads. You're

710
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.199
doing the same thing. The truth is the core issue, John,

711
00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:40.039
because if we know the truth, we know what we're

712
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:42.599
dealing with and we can agree. You may have a

713
00:36:42.639 --> 00:36:45.079
different process and how to get there, but if we're

714
00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:47.519
both aiming for the truth, I think we can have

715
00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:48.920
a conversation, don't you.

716
00:36:50.519 --> 00:36:53.800
And that should be the lowest common denominator. You should all.

717
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:56.320
Agree that the truth is going to be the one

718
00:36:56.360 --> 00:36:58.000
thing that we don't disagree on.

719
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:00.039
But we can't even get that.

720
00:37:00.239 --> 00:37:03.480
People to acknowledge that twenty twenty was stolen when the

721
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:06.599
evidence is overwhelming that twenty twenty was stolen.

722
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:08.960
I don't really know about the other Swing States.

723
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:11.280
I do know about Georgia because I worked with the

724
00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:14.360
legal team on a case against the Fulton Board of Elections.

725
00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:17.280
I have seen the evidence, I've talked to the witnesses,

726
00:37:17.599 --> 00:37:21.559
I've played the Devil's Advocate with the forensic accountants. There

727
00:37:21.679 --> 00:37:25.639
is zero doubt in my mind that Georgia was stolen

728
00:37:25.719 --> 00:37:31.440
by an overwhelming a tsunami of fraudulent votes four hundred

729
00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:35.000
thousand in an election that was lost by eleven thousand

730
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:36.840
and seventy nine.

731
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:37.360
And it.

732
00:37:39.239 --> 00:37:42.440
Is laughable on the one hand that people could be

733
00:37:42.559 --> 00:37:44.239
either stupid, but it's.

734
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:48.480
Damning on the other hand that could people could be

735
00:37:48.519 --> 00:37:52.440
that selfish and that determined to get their way at

736
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:56.480
the expense of our constitution and our country and they're

737
00:37:56.519 --> 00:37:59.760
willing to deprive other people of their fundamental right of

738
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:03.000
the the franchise in order to get their way. Is

739
00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:05.840
just demonically wrong in my view.

740
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:08.320
Well, and I agree with you one hundred percent. And

741
00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:10.519
I don't know what it's going to take John to

742
00:38:10.519 --> 00:38:13.840
where the evidence can finally come out once and for all,

743
00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:15.760
so that we get it out of you know, because

744
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:18.159
some people will say, well, you know, that's John Gordon's opinion,

745
00:38:18.239 --> 00:38:21.400
that's Bill Martinez's opinion. But you know, you you know,

746
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:25.400
it's like the evidence is purposely being squashed and kept

747
00:38:25.440 --> 00:38:28.519
away from the every man. Anyway, let's go to quick break.

748
00:38:28.519 --> 00:38:30.159
We'll pick it up on the other side. Okay, more

749
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:31.840

827
00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:38.320
Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez here with John Gordon, the

828
00:42:38.320 --> 00:42:43.480
Mercy University Law School graduate and award winning journalists and

829
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:47.079
making an Atlanta and glad we cleared that up. John,

830
00:42:47.519 --> 00:42:49.440
You know, getting back to what you were talking about,

831
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:53.719
because the ramifications of a stolen election, and like we

832
00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:57.000
were talking about before, the truth is so vital for

833
00:42:57.159 --> 00:42:59.519
everything about life. All it takes is a little bit

834
00:42:59.519 --> 00:43:02.760
of a lie, and the trajectory that you will be

835
00:43:03.000 --> 00:43:05.920
on will be so far off the mark that it

836
00:43:05.960 --> 00:43:08.960
will cost you, in our case, trillions of dollars. We're

837
00:43:09.000 --> 00:43:12.199
now thirty nine trillion dollars a debt. And I asked

838
00:43:12.199 --> 00:43:16.320
this question to all my brilliant economists guests who come on,

839
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:18.599
and I say, okay, how much of that thirty nine

840
00:43:18.639 --> 00:43:22.159
trillion is tied to vote getting and tied to deception.

841
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:23.599
And they say, well, probably all of it.

842
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:29.599
Well that's really alarming, but that helps explain why it's

843
00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:32.960
so hard to get meaningful budget reform in Washington. And

844
00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:35.519
I do believe that the people that are opposed to

845
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:38.119
it are in on it. Of course, saving on Omar.

846
00:43:38.280 --> 00:43:41.079
She came here with nothing and she's now worth twenty

847
00:43:41.079 --> 00:43:43.360
five million dollars as a member of Congress.

848
00:43:43.599 --> 00:43:47.320
Yeah, and she's head of a multi level marketing program

849
00:43:47.679 --> 00:43:53.760
that has all these somalis. They've captured Minneapolis, Minnesota. They're

850
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:58.480
also capturing California and god knows where else, you know whatever,

851
00:43:58.639 --> 00:44:01.280
Nick Shirley happens to expose next, right, one.

852
00:44:01.239 --> 00:44:05.159
Hundred and twenty eight billion dollars for the train that

853
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:08.559
was never built. Yeah, and they're still talking about delivering it,

854
00:44:08.920 --> 00:44:13.119
but just a third of it by twenty thirty three.

855
00:44:13.559 --> 00:44:15.719
And you want you want that governor to be the

856
00:44:15.760 --> 00:44:17.519
president of the United States? Are you're kidding me?

857
00:44:17.840 --> 00:44:20.039
Yeah? And you know if you or I don't pay

858
00:44:20.280 --> 00:44:21.280
fifty cents.

859
00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:24.280
Of taxes ode, they'll they'll come with people with badges

860
00:44:24.360 --> 00:44:26.039
and handcuffs.

861
00:44:26.199 --> 00:44:26.480
Yeah.

862
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:30.079
The people that we trust to enforce our laws, and

863
00:44:30.119 --> 00:44:34.559
who are determining the tax policy of our country are

864
00:44:34.639 --> 00:44:39.400
ripping us off. And that's really that's really maddening. I mean,

865
00:44:39.440 --> 00:44:41.639
the fact that you and I work very hard for

866
00:44:41.679 --> 00:44:44.119
our money. We do it honestly, We pay our taxes,

867
00:44:44.519 --> 00:44:48.599
we've we save, we invest, and they they they just

868
00:44:48.639 --> 00:44:50.639
want to come and get it. And I don't think

869
00:44:50.679 --> 00:44:56.079
that that's right on any level. But I'm certainly willing

870
00:44:56.119 --> 00:44:57.039
to help them.

871
00:44:57.239 --> 00:45:00.559
Yeah, well we help. We have helped in We've helped

872
00:45:00.639 --> 00:45:03.559
We've helped them all our professional and business lives, John

873
00:45:03.679 --> 00:45:07.440
for the last sixty years exactly. So you know, that's

874
00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:09.559
our heart, and that's the heart of most people. And

875
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:11.960
you know here it is, you know, like they always say, well,

876
00:45:11.960 --> 00:45:14.880
we're going to go after those billionaires, those rich people

877
00:45:14.960 --> 00:45:16.599
that are paying you know, what is it less than

878
00:45:16.679 --> 00:45:20.360
one percent you know in New York and they're paying

879
00:45:20.400 --> 00:45:23.360
what forty percent of the taxes. Now they're chasing them

880
00:45:23.360 --> 00:45:25.239
out of Dodge there. I mean, don't even stand at

881
00:45:25.280 --> 00:45:27.760
the exit. You're gonna get run over by a runaway

882
00:45:27.840 --> 00:45:29.840
U haul is. They're all escaping Dodge.

883
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:33.039
Well, ten percent of the nation pays ninety percent of

884
00:45:33.039 --> 00:45:36.159
the taxes. Yeah, so that that that's the point that

885
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:37.320
I was making earlier.

886
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:42.000
You know, it's sad that you would think that, you know.

887
00:45:44.079 --> 00:45:48.480
They want reparations some element of the black community want

888
00:45:48.519 --> 00:45:52.239
reparations for slavery. Well, two things. One, I've never owned

889
00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:55.239
a slave, too. I don't know whether my ancestors did.

890
00:45:55.280 --> 00:45:56.840
I suspect that some of.

891
00:45:56.760 --> 00:45:57.400
Them may have.

892
00:45:57.800 --> 00:46:00.639
But we're talking about two hundred years ago, and for

893
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:03.239
the last sixty years to your point, in my view,

894
00:46:03.639 --> 00:46:09.760
we have already paid reparations, free food, free housing, free education,

895
00:46:10.400 --> 00:46:14.079
free pretty much Obama phones. I mean, you know, when

896
00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:16.239
is healthcare?

897
00:46:16.400 --> 00:46:20.519
Thank you? And I'm not I don't know.

898
00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:24.079
I'm probably now a racist for having said that, but

899
00:46:24.199 --> 00:46:24.519
I'm not.

900
00:46:25.559 --> 00:46:27.639
Well, you're speaking out loud. A lot of people have

901
00:46:27.639 --> 00:46:28.880
been thinking, John.

902
00:46:28.840 --> 00:46:29.719
For twenty years.

903
00:46:29.760 --> 00:46:32.760
I've worked in the black community trying to help revitalize

904
00:46:33.159 --> 00:46:35.159
that community that I was talking about.

905
00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:37.159
So and I have.

906
00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:40.639
I'm on a first name basis with hundreds of people

907
00:46:40.639 --> 00:46:42.760
who live there, and they love me because they know

908
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:45.639
that my heart is pure. I'm not coming in to

909
00:46:45.719 --> 00:46:48.599
develop real estate or take advantage of them. I'm there

910
00:46:48.639 --> 00:46:52.920
to help. But then it seems like in a broader

911
00:46:52.960 --> 00:47:00.159
picture that our benevolence, whatever generosity we give, is trans

912
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:04.400
laid it into entitlement. We owe it to them and

913
00:47:04.480 --> 00:47:06.679
there is no gratitude. So why do you want to

914
00:47:06.719 --> 00:47:07.760
continue to keep giving?

915
00:47:08.400 --> 00:47:09.360
I don't think that I do.

916
00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:14.079
Frankly now where whereas needed and appreciated one hundred percent,

917
00:47:14.440 --> 00:47:17.039
But I have no obligation to go help somebody that

918
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:19.440
just wants to give me, gimme gimme.

919
00:47:20.239 --> 00:47:22.760
Well, John, you and I have been blessed. You know,

920
00:47:22.840 --> 00:47:26.039
this country has given us so much an opportunity in

921
00:47:26.079 --> 00:47:30.159
that and the nature of people like us, which are

922
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:32.280
the majority of people, is we wing to give to

923
00:47:32.280 --> 00:47:35.320
somebody else a leg up? You always pay it forward? Now,

924
00:47:35.320 --> 00:47:39.639
that's the way I was raised, right, Yeah, So so

925
00:47:39.760 --> 00:47:41.599
here it is. We know, we want to help people,

926
00:47:42.119 --> 00:47:44.639
and and sometimes it's shocking to me because I think

927
00:47:44.639 --> 00:47:48.239
in other minority groups. You know, it's like some of

928
00:47:48.280 --> 00:47:52.239
these cellabs are making you know, millions upon millions of dollars,

929
00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:54.519
and I go, you know, where are you in the

930
00:47:54.559 --> 00:47:57.440
inner city? How are you helping you know, these homeless

931
00:47:57.440 --> 00:48:00.920
and these that are you know, that are being ripped off.

932
00:48:01.039 --> 00:48:03.639
When it comes to education, what are you doing to

933
00:48:03.719 --> 00:48:06.880
be an example. You know, there's not enough. You know,

934
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:09.199
in LA when I was there, you know, Magic Johnson

935
00:48:09.320 --> 00:48:11.519
was was at the forefront, he was doing a lot

936
00:48:11.559 --> 00:48:15.679
for the local community. There were other you know, minorities

937
00:48:15.719 --> 00:48:17.960
that were serving the local community. But still there were

938
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:20.199
so many others that just hey, they're happy to take

939
00:48:20.199 --> 00:48:21.079
their money and run.

940
00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:21.400
You know.

941
00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:25.519
Well, in Atlanta, you'd have to concede that it's one

942
00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:31.719
of the most affluent black populations in the country. The

943
00:48:31.800 --> 00:48:35.719
population is roughly fifty percent African American, and there are

944
00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:41.480
some very very successful entrepreneurs, doctors, lawyers who are.

945
00:48:41.360 --> 00:48:43.599
Black, and I applaud them.

946
00:48:44.400 --> 00:48:48.159
Yet in our charity, when we were raising money for

947
00:48:48.239 --> 00:48:54.599
the black community, they were the smallest demographic represented. And

948
00:48:55.559 --> 00:48:58.760
I can't explain that, and I'm not mad about it.

949
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:02.519
I'm just stating the fact we asked and they didn't respond.

950
00:49:02.679 --> 00:49:03.280
What can I do.

951
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:09.360
Exactly, Well, let's talk about Pambondy. You know, with the

952
00:49:09.400 --> 00:49:11.840
stuff that you know, the chair shuffling that's going on

953
00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:15.679
in DC, I think some people, you know, caught a

954
00:49:15.679 --> 00:49:19.880
little bit surprised. We heard rumblings about the situation with

955
00:49:19.960 --> 00:49:23.559
Pam Bondy. I think that you could question the handling

956
00:49:23.840 --> 00:49:27.000
of Epstein and the files, and you know, promising some

957
00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:32.000
things that she couldn't delivered. And you know, I think

958
00:49:32.000 --> 00:49:33.880
it just more and more as the days went on,

959
00:49:33.960 --> 00:49:34.960
it seemed inevitable.

960
00:49:36.320 --> 00:49:38.960
Well, I'll just say that, you know, I've seen behind

961
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:43.679
the curtain. I've was an endorsed candidate by President Trump

962
00:49:43.719 --> 00:49:47.920
to run for ag from Georgia after the twenty twenty election,

963
00:49:48.079 --> 00:49:51.599
and the work that I'd done on election integrity in Georgia.

964
00:49:52.079 --> 00:49:56.119
So I've been tomorrow Largo a lot. I have met

965
00:49:56.159 --> 00:49:59.719
privately with Susie Wiles on multiple occasions.

966
00:50:00.039 --> 00:50:00.840
I like her.

967
00:50:01.519 --> 00:50:06.239
She is very competent, she is tough as nails. And

968
00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:09.119
when I read the Vanity Fair article a few three

969
00:50:09.199 --> 00:50:12.320
or three months ago, I maybe actually have been back

970
00:50:12.360 --> 00:50:16.719
in January now, and she said that Pam Bondy whipped

971
00:50:17.320 --> 00:50:20.920
on the Epstein matter, I knew that Pam Bondi's goose

972
00:50:21.079 --> 00:50:25.360
was cooked. Trump might be running the war in Iran,

973
00:50:25.519 --> 00:50:28.800
Make no mistake, Susie Wilds is running the White House.

974
00:50:29.199 --> 00:50:31.760
And she is.

975
00:50:33.199 --> 00:50:38.000
Has the cabinet at her fingertips, and she is going

976
00:50:38.079 --> 00:50:42.280
to require them to fall in line and do what

977
00:50:42.320 --> 00:50:44.960
the President wants and if they get out of line,

978
00:50:45.360 --> 00:50:48.519
it's her job to correct it. And I think that's

979
00:50:48.559 --> 00:50:53.400
what happened with Pam Bondy. You know, as a citizen,

980
00:50:54.039 --> 00:50:57.639
as a journalist, I'm not disappointed to see Pam Bondy go.

981
00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:03.079
She promised just the moon and delivered a squad and that.

982
00:51:03.639 --> 00:51:07.400
You know, do you like it when somebody lies to you?

983
00:51:07.400 --> 00:51:10.079
You know, well, certainly if it's a flat out lie.

984
00:51:10.159 --> 00:51:13.599
I have no patience for people who lie for me.

985
00:51:13.679 --> 00:51:17.000
It triggers me, or when somebody plays me for a fool.

986
00:51:17.719 --> 00:51:22.719
So when she paraded those social media influencers out of

987
00:51:22.760 --> 00:51:26.039
the door to the West Wing and they were holding

988
00:51:26.079 --> 00:51:31.559
their Epstein file books, it was a sham. The I

989
00:51:31.639 --> 00:51:33.760
think there were maybe one hundred or two hundred pages

990
00:51:34.119 --> 00:51:37.480
in those books, and they were documents that were already

991
00:51:37.480 --> 00:51:40.159
in the public domain that shed no light on anything.

992
00:51:40.840 --> 00:51:43.039
So I felt that we were being played and I

993
00:51:43.119 --> 00:51:46.559
was resentful of her for having done that. When she

994
00:51:46.719 --> 00:51:50.400
promised us the files are on my desk, I'm going

995
00:51:50.440 --> 00:51:52.239
through them, I will be releasing.

996
00:51:51.840 --> 00:51:54.719
Them shortly, well that was a lie because I.

997
00:51:54.639 --> 00:51:59.119
Don't think she had six million pieces of paper on

998
00:51:59.159 --> 00:52:04.039
her desk. And when the Congress passed the law that

999
00:52:04.280 --> 00:52:08.559
ordered the files be released. We got three million pages

1000
00:52:08.840 --> 00:52:12.119
heavily redacted, but there are another three million that they

1001
00:52:12.159 --> 00:52:14.760
say they're not going to release now. So they're just

1002
00:52:14.800 --> 00:52:17.400
flicking the Congress of the United States off even after

1003
00:52:17.440 --> 00:52:21.280
President Trump signed the bill. Somebody needs to go to

1004
00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:25.800
court and have a rid of mandamus issued against the

1005
00:52:25.840 --> 00:52:28.440
Attorney General of the United States to do what.

1006
00:52:28.320 --> 00:52:30.360
The Congress and the President have told him to do.

1007
00:52:31.159 --> 00:52:32.079
I mean, but it just.

1008
00:52:32.079 --> 00:52:36.960
Gives you a real look at the deep state, and

1009
00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:40.800
I think that's what we're seeing. Somebody is calling the shots,

1010
00:52:40.840 --> 00:52:44.719
and I don't think it is Trump, but I think

1011
00:52:44.800 --> 00:52:50.360
that he is what's the right word. He is not

1012
00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:54.760
an enabler, he's not complicit, but he's not doing anything

1013
00:52:54.800 --> 00:52:59.000
about it. I have the instinct, Well, you know, when

1014
00:52:59.079 --> 00:53:02.000
Dan Bongino went to be the assistant director of the FBI,

1015
00:53:02.719 --> 00:53:05.039
there were a couple of several news stories actually about

1016
00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:08.800
how the FBI had to go outside of Washington to

1017
00:53:08.800 --> 00:53:12.960
find fifty loyal, honest FBI agents that could come and

1018
00:53:13.039 --> 00:53:20.000
protect do Geno at his desk inside the FBI. Now,

1019
00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:21.800
if that doesn't tell you everything you need to know,

1020
00:53:21.880 --> 00:53:26.199
I don't know what does. And I have the suspicion,

1021
00:53:27.920 --> 00:53:30.599
and I have the belief that there is that the

1022
00:53:30.639 --> 00:53:34.199
federal government is rotten to its core, and I have

1023
00:53:34.360 --> 00:53:38.119
the suspicion that it can be a dangerous place to work.

1024
00:53:38.599 --> 00:53:42.920
And I think that that's probably part of the explanation

1025
00:53:43.480 --> 00:53:45.920
when Trump doesn't do what we think that he should

1026
00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:48.719
or would have done based on what he promised us.

1027
00:53:49.599 --> 00:53:51.559
Well, it was like the JFK files, right, he was

1028
00:53:51.599 --> 00:53:53.679
going to release all the JFK files. He released have

1029
00:53:54.239 --> 00:53:58.760
and stopped even though it was codified that at a

1030
00:53:58.760 --> 00:54:02.079
certain time, this was his first administration, that all the

1031
00:54:02.119 --> 00:54:06.159
files were to be released. And I, like you, I

1032
00:54:06.280 --> 00:54:09.400
suspected that there was some pressure and some threats on

1033
00:54:09.440 --> 00:54:11.360
his family and that's probably why he stopped.

1034
00:54:11.920 --> 00:54:18.440
Well, Trump said that Mike Pompeo leaned heavily on him

1035
00:54:18.800 --> 00:54:20.239
not to release the files.

1036
00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:21.679
And now we know.

1037
00:54:21.840 --> 00:54:27.280
Through the work of various authors, journalists and researchers. Roger Stone,

1038
00:54:27.760 --> 00:54:30.840
he wrote the book The Men Who Killed Kennedy, the

1039
00:54:30.880 --> 00:54:36.679
Case against LBJ. Douglas who wrote The Unspeakable, David Talbot,

1040
00:54:36.719 --> 00:54:39.719
who wrote The Devil's Triangle. They all come up with

1041
00:54:39.760 --> 00:54:43.639
the same facts. In slightly different conclusions. But Roger Stone

1042
00:54:44.199 --> 00:54:47.239
is the book that I believe the most. LBJ was

1043
00:54:47.280 --> 00:54:49.360
about to be dropped from the ticket. He was under

1044
00:54:49.400 --> 00:54:56.960
investigation in Texas for defrauding the government for cotton subsidies

1045
00:54:57.000 --> 00:55:02.719
and allotments, and the agricultural Commissioner was after him. And

1046
00:55:02.800 --> 00:55:09.480
so what happened. Two things happened. The Agricultural Commissioner was assassinated.

1047
00:55:11.119 --> 00:55:16.199
Macwallace was tried for that murder and convicted by twelve

1048
00:55:16.199 --> 00:55:19.440
men and women. The judge was a protege of LBJ,

1049
00:55:20.159 --> 00:55:24.079
and he reduced mac Wallace's sentence to time serve. He

1050
00:55:24.239 --> 00:55:27.480
literally walked out of jail the day he was convicted

1051
00:55:27.800 --> 00:55:32.639
of murder. It should have been a capital offense. And

1052
00:55:32.679 --> 00:55:39.079
then they all all these authors conclude that well Stone

1053
00:55:39.760 --> 00:55:44.039
concludes that LBJ planned it, and the other authors believe

1054
00:55:44.079 --> 00:55:47.960
that Alan Dulles carried it out, which is what I believe,

1055
00:55:48.559 --> 00:55:51.559
and that Jay Edgar Hoover covered it up. So what

1056
00:55:52.039 --> 00:55:55.079
we've conveyed to every bureaucrat in America is that if

1057
00:55:55.119 --> 00:55:57.760
you're in government and you have power, you can literally

1058
00:55:57.880 --> 00:55:59.840
get away with.

1059
00:56:00.760 --> 00:56:03.000
Exactly Well, we got to leave it there. John Gordon,

1085
00:57:30.079 --> 00:57:31.920
Good morning, six minutes after the top of the are

1086
00:57:32.000 --> 00:57:34.480
right now the way I look at it, I'm Bill Martinez,

1087
00:57:34.480 --> 00:57:36.880
and he is Scott Powell from the Discovery Institute and

1088
00:57:36.920 --> 00:57:39.320
the author himself. Hey mister Scott, how you doing, Benny,

1089
00:57:39.639 --> 00:57:40.559
I'm very well built.

1090
00:57:40.599 --> 00:57:41.719
Thanks, Hey, Tay.

1091
00:57:41.840 --> 00:57:43.760
A lot of good things going on. I'll say, you

1092
00:57:44.440 --> 00:57:46.119
know what Donald Trump is doing with a straight up

1093
00:57:46.119 --> 00:57:49.000
horn moze. I mean, it's a game of chess. It's

1094
00:57:49.039 --> 00:57:51.920
like the Iranians are playing checkers and he's playing chess

1095
00:57:51.960 --> 00:57:55.039
on multiple levels. You know, they thought they had something there.

1096
00:57:55.079 --> 00:57:57.159
It says, okay, well, if you want to block the

1097
00:57:57.679 --> 00:58:01.119
you know, block the flow of ships, let's just get

1098
00:58:01.159 --> 00:58:03.280
real serious and we're you know, we just happen to

1099
00:58:03.320 --> 00:58:05.880
have a couple of navy boats around and we'll we'll

1100
00:58:05.920 --> 00:58:11.920
just blockade the straight of horror moons right right. Amazing,

1101
00:58:12.000 --> 00:58:12.880
really amazing.

1102
00:58:13.159 --> 00:58:17.639
It's I think, what's what should surprise Americans? And please Americans,

1103
00:58:18.280 --> 00:58:21.440
is that we have a president now who really is

1104
00:58:21.679 --> 00:58:26.719
committed to American interests and he's on the offensive. He's

1105
00:58:26.800 --> 00:58:27.800
on the offense.

1106
00:58:28.159 --> 00:58:30.559
Yeah, in a strategic sort of way, Scott. It's not

1107
00:58:30.599 --> 00:58:33.079
like you're sitting there going, hey, I'm just gonna throw

1108
00:58:33.119 --> 00:58:36.400
a nuclear bomb out there and totally decimate their civilization.

1109
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:40.719
You know, he's been doing everything he can in playing

1110
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:45.400
whatever cards they're playing, to counter their you know, their cards,

1111
00:58:45.840 --> 00:58:47.760
to say Okay, well if you do this, I'm gonna

1112
00:58:47.800 --> 00:58:50.159
do that. But each step of the way you watch it,

1113
00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:54.280
whether it's bombing or whether it's the blockade, it's to

1114
00:58:54.440 --> 00:58:58.440
preserve civilization. Not to go off the headline that everybody

1115
00:58:58.519 --> 00:59:02.760
ran with when he said, hey, we're going to destroy civilization.

1116
00:59:03.280 --> 00:59:07.719
But as one guest, Mike O'Neil from Landmark Legal pointed out,

1117
00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:11.400
he said, you know, with people with bullies like that,

1118
00:59:11.679 --> 00:59:14.519
you've got to speak their language, right. And after all,

1119
00:59:14.599 --> 00:59:17.800
this is the same people that for almost five decades,

1120
00:59:18.239 --> 00:59:21.280
not only by words but by their actions, want to

1121
00:59:21.280 --> 00:59:24.320
destroy America. And they've said as much. And then all

1122
00:59:24.360 --> 00:59:27.360
of a sudden, the media and everybody's clutching their pearls

1123
00:59:27.599 --> 00:59:29.920
because Donald Trump says, you know, this is going to

1124
00:59:29.920 --> 00:59:32.559
be the end of civilization, And of course anybody with

1125
00:59:32.639 --> 00:59:35.960
any kind of common sense understood exactly what Trump was saying.

1126
00:59:36.719 --> 00:59:37.199
That's right.

1127
00:59:37.639 --> 00:59:43.519
Yeah, it's remarkable, amazing that we finally have the president

1128
00:59:43.559 --> 00:59:46.840
who is you know, who's willing to go on the

1129
00:59:47.000 --> 00:59:48.840
offense for America.

1130
00:59:48.920 --> 00:59:49.519
Did you hear it?

1131
00:59:49.639 --> 00:59:52.760
Just? I think it was yesterday he met with the

1132
00:59:53.239 --> 00:59:59.159
leader of Indonesia and has struck up a defense agreement

1133
00:59:59.679 --> 01:00:02.840
within Indonesia that would protect the Straits of Malacca. So

1134
01:00:02.960 --> 01:00:07.079
now the United States is securing the Straits of Malacca,

1135
01:00:08.239 --> 01:00:13.360
which more oil flows through that, especially oil to China.

1136
01:00:13.719 --> 01:00:17.440
Right exactly. Yeah, and President she goes, oh my gosh,

1137
01:00:17.480 --> 01:00:20.000
thank god, he's coming. He's coming to China. Maybe we

1138
01:00:20.039 --> 01:00:23.559
can talk and have a bruskie and and make nice here.

1139
01:00:23.760 --> 01:00:25.960
What do you think, Well, you gotta you gotta.

1140
01:00:26.039 --> 01:00:32.360
One has to recognize that that Trump uh is respected tremendously.

1141
01:00:32.519 --> 01:00:32.800
You know.

1142
01:00:33.719 --> 01:00:37.360
One of the first modern philosophers of political philosophy was

1143
01:00:37.400 --> 01:00:41.320
machiavel A. And most people don't don't properly understand Machiavelli

1144
01:00:41.400 --> 01:00:44.920
because he wrote The Prince as a you know, as

1145
01:00:44.960 --> 01:00:49.239
a sort of a study a guide book, I think

1146
01:00:49.280 --> 01:00:53.400
to the to the Menichi family, Uh, it was it

1147
01:00:53.480 --> 01:00:58.599
was his offering to become their secretary of defense. Uh

1148
01:00:58.639 --> 01:01:01.800
And and basically he articulated all the different ways in

1149
01:01:01.840 --> 01:01:05.039
which your enemies will try and destroy you, kill you, right,

1150
01:01:05.320 --> 01:01:06.440
And that's what the Prince does.

1151
01:01:06.519 --> 01:01:06.679
Now.

1152
01:01:06.719 --> 01:01:09.320
People said, oh, he's Mackievellien. No, Mackievellian was actually a

1153
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:16.480
Christian and he he he wrote this to show that

1154
01:01:16.599 --> 01:01:20.599
he understood all the different demonic strategies that would.

1155
01:01:20.440 --> 01:01:22.119
Be used to destroy you.

1156
01:01:23.159 --> 01:01:27.400
And mckievela also in the Princess asked the question of

1157
01:01:27.880 --> 01:01:31.840
is it better for a leader to be loved or

1158
01:01:31.880 --> 01:01:34.760
is it better for him to be feared? And he

1159
01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:36.519
came down on the side of it's better that a

1160
01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:41.079
leader be feared than loved, right. And that describes Donald

1161
01:01:41.159 --> 01:01:45.039
Trump very well. On the international scene. Donald Trump is

1162
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:48.679
respected because he's feared. They don't know what he's going

1163
01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:52.400
to do except that he's aggressive and he's out to

1164
01:01:52.480 --> 01:01:54.239
defend American interests.

1165
01:01:54.760 --> 01:01:57.360
Yeah. What Donald Trump said early on Scott is that

1166
01:01:57.639 --> 01:02:02.199
I want people to be mindful of that ten percent

1167
01:02:03.440 --> 01:02:07.159
that they don't know what I'm going to do. You know,

1168
01:02:07.639 --> 01:02:10.480
they have their doubts, and I guess that raises that

1169
01:02:10.599 --> 01:02:14.440
level of fear, particularly if you're in combat with him

1170
01:02:14.880 --> 01:02:17.280
or if you're at war with him, you go will

1171
01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:20.639
he or won't he? And I think I think Putin

1172
01:02:20.719 --> 01:02:25.039
has that same kind of personality as president. She does

1173
01:02:25.079 --> 01:02:27.679
in that kind of power. It's not that they're sitting

1174
01:02:27.679 --> 01:02:30.599
there going okay, I mean they're not going total Adolf

1175
01:02:30.679 --> 01:02:34.280
Hitler here, but they're just saying, hey, I you know,

1176
01:02:34.360 --> 01:02:37.679
I've got I've got a weapon here, and I'm going

1177
01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:40.960
to let you take a peek of it. Ever so much,

1178
01:02:41.320 --> 01:02:45.000
and that represents about ten percent of the conversation. And

1179
01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:47.800
you know, getting back to what Trump said earlier about

1180
01:02:48.320 --> 01:02:54.320
annihilating or devastating the civilization, you know, mission accomplished. He

1181
01:02:54.440 --> 01:02:56.119
needed to get he wanted to get him back to

1182
01:02:56.159 --> 01:02:59.119
the bargaining table. He did not want to. And you

1183
01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:01.719
could tell even when he is talking about the kind

1184
01:03:01.760 --> 01:03:05.679
of damage that would be caused if he let all help,

1185
01:03:05.840 --> 01:03:09.159
you know, break loose, it was that his heart was

1186
01:03:09.199 --> 01:03:11.400
that he wanted to have a discussion. What did he

1187
01:03:11.519 --> 01:03:14.159
do got him back to the bargaining table. We've got

1188
01:03:14.199 --> 01:03:17.719
a two week cease fire. And even though it hasn't

1189
01:03:18.639 --> 01:03:23.000
resulted in something fantastic. It is, it's part of the

1190
01:03:23.079 --> 01:03:27.039
process because of who you're dealing with. You're not dealing with,

1191
01:03:27.360 --> 01:03:30.199
you know, even Venezuela. I mean, you're dealing with some

1192
01:03:30.440 --> 01:03:36.400
ideologues that are just nuts, that have generational complexities and

1193
01:03:36.440 --> 01:03:39.639
a desire to kill you right right.

1194
01:03:40.000 --> 01:03:41.039
Yeah.

1195
01:03:41.559 --> 01:03:44.920
And even though negotiations broke down, what was the next

1196
01:03:44.960 --> 01:03:47.880
hand he played right away was Okay, you want to

1197
01:03:48.039 --> 01:03:50.519
you want to control the straits of her moves blockaded,

1198
01:03:50.840 --> 01:03:54.400
We're going to blockade you. Well, we're gonna We're gonna

1199
01:03:54.400 --> 01:03:58.760
take over right in the streets. We have the firepower

1200
01:03:58.800 --> 01:04:00.840
to do it. You have nothing, you have no navy left.

1201
01:04:00.840 --> 01:04:02.239
How are you going to blockade that?

1202
01:04:02.480 --> 01:04:08.840
Right exactly? And you know that's it's just so comical

1203
01:04:09.239 --> 01:04:12.079
but brilliant. And the thing is is that the left

1204
01:04:12.360 --> 01:04:15.880
they can't even appreciate the brilliance of this move.

1205
01:04:16.800 --> 01:04:22.119
Well, they suffer from td as Trump derangement from so

1206
01:04:22.159 --> 01:04:25.639
they can see nothing, you know, nothing admirable or good

1207
01:04:25.679 --> 01:04:29.519
about Donald Trump. It's it's very sad that people are

1208
01:04:29.559 --> 01:04:34.239
so you know, so praised over his persona that they

1209
01:04:34.280 --> 01:04:37.199
can't see the results of his policies which have been

1210
01:04:37.760 --> 01:04:42.039
really quite really good for America across the board.

1211
01:04:42.119 --> 01:04:45.039
Actually, where do you think we'd be if Kamala Harris

1212
01:04:45.119 --> 01:04:46.320
was president right now?

1213
01:04:46.920 --> 01:04:48.840
I don't even want to think really, because she has

1214
01:04:49.119 --> 01:04:55.920
she had no no, no vision for America, no no

1215
01:04:56.039 --> 01:04:59.760
clarity of mind, no priorities. I mean, she was just

1216
01:04:59.800 --> 01:05:03.920
a you know, a Democrat opportunist that just wanted power

1217
01:05:04.360 --> 01:05:06.159
and would sort of manage as she goes.

1218
01:05:07.079 --> 01:05:10.639
Yeah, but she would probably maintain the apparatchick of the

1219
01:05:10.719 --> 01:05:15.119
Obama and Biden years. So the same incompetence that ran

1220
01:05:15.199 --> 01:05:18.480
our foreign policy for eight years under Barack Obama and

1221
01:05:18.519 --> 01:05:22.000
four years of under Biden. You know, that really brought

1222
01:05:22.079 --> 01:05:24.440
us to this point, that brought us to this climax

1223
01:05:24.719 --> 01:05:28.280
that Donald Trump had to do something about it or otherwise.

1224
01:05:28.559 --> 01:05:32.000
I mean, Scott, I don't think people really appreciate that,

1225
01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:34.719
you know, what it would mean for Iran to have

1226
01:05:34.840 --> 01:05:38.920
a nuclear weapon, and they were within probably two weeks.

1227
01:05:39.199 --> 01:05:43.199
I mean, they so boldly and arrogantly tell the negotiators.

1228
01:05:43.480 --> 01:05:47.960
They say to, you know, to Marco Rubio in company, Hey,

1229
01:05:48.039 --> 01:05:51.440
we've got enough fusel material here that we can you know,

1230
01:05:51.480 --> 01:05:55.639
we can develop eleven nuclear bombs here, So take that right.

1231
01:05:56.039 --> 01:06:00.679
Right right, and the next thing, you know, dealing with

1232
01:06:00.679 --> 01:06:04.039
that taking those taking that capability away.

1233
01:06:04.760 --> 01:06:07.320
Well yeah, I mean he's definitely limited and like you said,

1234
01:06:07.440 --> 01:06:10.119
he could walk away today, it would take him twenty

1235
01:06:10.199 --> 01:06:12.519
years to rebuild. But why do you want to have

1236
01:06:12.760 --> 01:06:16.119
a president and a nation dealing with this twenty years

1237
01:06:16.119 --> 01:06:19.119
from now to have this ideology? You know, come back

1338
01:11:28.640 --> 01:11:31.199
And we're back with you. Bill Martinez here with Scott Palell,

1339
01:11:31.239 --> 01:11:33.199
the author, member of the Committee on this President Danger

1340
01:11:33.239 --> 01:11:37.680
in China, senior fellow at the Discovery Institute. Well, Scott, again,

1341
01:11:37.840 --> 01:11:42.279
we can be thankful that President Trump is the President

1342
01:11:42.319 --> 01:11:46.680
of the United States. Again. I thank God for Donald Trump.

1343
01:11:46.720 --> 01:11:50.600
I thank God for the American people who elected this president.

1344
01:11:50.880 --> 01:11:52.880
And I say to the American people that we have

1345
01:11:53.000 --> 01:11:58.319
to bring reinforcements to the belt Way to help this

1346
01:11:58.399 --> 01:12:01.199
president out. He's done a lot of this single handedly.

1347
01:12:02.159 --> 01:12:06.199
He's battling even his own party on things that are

1348
01:12:06.199 --> 01:12:09.119
no brainers that should been you know, whether it's immigration

1349
01:12:09.439 --> 01:12:11.720
or these other major issues that we're dealing with in

1350
01:12:11.720 --> 01:12:13.960
this country, you know, voting.

1351
01:12:13.680 --> 01:12:16.039
And Stay of America actors, yes.

1352
01:12:16.000 --> 01:12:20.359
Exactly, I mean, these eighty twenty ninety twenty issues. And

1353
01:12:21.399 --> 01:12:24.680
you know, and for some reason, you know, are elected

1354
01:12:24.720 --> 01:12:28.720
officials in Congress doing what they're doing instead of following,

1355
01:12:28.920 --> 01:12:33.520
you know, following Trump's lead and codifying these actions that

1356
01:12:33.560 --> 01:12:37.319
he's that are working so beautifully. I mean, I mean

1357
01:12:37.399 --> 01:12:40.119
right now here we are, you know, with tax Day

1358
01:12:40.239 --> 01:12:43.000
and all that's going on, Scott and people are realizing

1359
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:47.279
bigger returns than they they'd expected for this year and

1360
01:12:47.760 --> 01:12:52.279
no tax on tip. You had the grandma dashdor Gallup

1361
01:12:52.319 --> 01:12:54.359
come to the White House and bring him, you know,

1362
01:12:54.399 --> 01:12:58.159
a couple of bags of cheeseburgers from McDonald's and you know,

1363
01:12:58.199 --> 01:13:00.479
and how much money does she get from, you know,

1364
01:13:00.600 --> 01:13:02.600
just from no taxes? And she really needed I mean,

1365
01:13:02.640 --> 01:13:05.319
she's got a husband who's dealing with cancer. I mean,

1366
01:13:05.359 --> 01:13:08.199
and this is just one of probably millions of stories

1367
01:13:08.199 --> 01:13:11.319
across America. Thank you very much, the big beautiful bill

1368
01:13:11.600 --> 01:13:14.640
and the vision that began with Donald Trump.

1369
01:13:15.239 --> 01:13:17.560
Yes, yeah, absolutely, yep.

1370
01:13:18.640 --> 01:13:19.600
So here we are.

1371
01:13:19.800 --> 01:13:23.760
It's a you know, we're on the verge of a

1372
01:13:23.800 --> 01:13:25.840
new day. I think, I really do. I think that

1373
01:13:25.920 --> 01:13:32.039
the Iran situation is is going to work out, and

1374
01:13:33.439 --> 01:13:36.199
we'll have to see if this regime survives. But it's

1375
01:13:36.800 --> 01:13:38.680
it's it's actually doubtful.

1376
01:13:39.079 --> 01:13:41.000
Yeah, I don't I don't know how it can. He's

1377
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:43.399
got to root it out. I think the people there,

1378
01:13:43.800 --> 01:13:46.159
you know, they're still talking numbers forty fifty thousand. We

1379
01:13:46.239 --> 01:13:49.760
have reports that's over eighty thousand people were murdered at

1380
01:13:49.760 --> 01:13:51.439
the hands of the guy or GC and the local

1381
01:13:52.039 --> 01:13:56.600
law enforcement officials there in Tehran, you know, and the

1382
01:13:56.640 --> 01:13:59.560
people are you know, they're defenseless right now, and they're

1383
01:13:59.560 --> 01:14:02.800
really hoping and praying and counting, you know, on America

1384
01:14:02.960 --> 01:14:06.119
to finally uproot and this is this is an evil

1385
01:14:06.159 --> 01:14:08.399
that needs to be uprooted, and by the grace of God,

1386
01:14:08.800 --> 01:14:13.039
that can happen. And if that does, Scott and we're

1387
01:14:13.039 --> 01:14:15.159
going to talk about what you wrote about the story

1388
01:14:15.199 --> 01:14:19.079
of everything. We are on the verge not only of

1389
01:14:19.720 --> 01:14:21.720
a golden age for America, but I think for the

1390
01:14:21.840 --> 01:14:27.720
entire planet. And I think that again, God willing, you know,

1391
01:14:27.880 --> 01:14:31.359
of course, this will fit into God's eternal plan and

1392
01:14:31.439 --> 01:14:34.199
where we're heading, and there will be a time of peace,

1393
01:14:34.279 --> 01:14:37.840
and there will be a time of you know, of

1394
01:14:37.920 --> 01:14:42.319
another great awakening, I believe, and a movement that would

1395
01:14:42.359 --> 01:14:45.600
be good for all, for the entire world, for all

1396
01:14:45.680 --> 01:14:48.800
concerned that we can, you know, consider living in peace

1397
01:14:48.840 --> 01:14:52.239
and contributing to the greater good of all humanity. And

1398
01:14:52.600 --> 01:14:55.760
I think that. And and after all this said and done,

1399
01:14:56.239 --> 01:14:58.960
like it or not, you can thank Donald Trump for

1400
01:14:59.039 --> 01:15:00.720
helping to set the state it all.

1401
01:15:01.159 --> 01:15:06.439
Yeah, it's remarkable. It's remarkable. He overcame so much and

1402
01:15:07.239 --> 01:15:13.000
just has proceeded to go on the offensive on policies

1403
01:15:13.079 --> 01:15:16.520
that are good for our country. And people are recognizing it.

1404
01:15:17.359 --> 01:15:19.159
You know, we all were two weeks ago. We were

1405
01:15:19.199 --> 01:15:21.239
all concerned about the war. You know, the war was

1406
01:15:21.239 --> 01:15:25.079
going to derail the economy. Higher oil prices and we're

1407
01:15:25.079 --> 01:15:28.079
going to get miird in a long protracted situation that

1408
01:15:28.119 --> 01:15:32.439
would derail the economy, how things have sort of changed.

1409
01:15:32.640 --> 01:15:36.720
You know, we have you know, we have hundreds of

1410
01:15:37.359 --> 01:15:40.000
tankers and super tankers on the way to the Gulf

1411
01:15:40.039 --> 01:15:41.199
of America.

1412
01:15:41.399 --> 01:15:42.199
Right to.

1413
01:15:44.479 --> 01:15:47.479
Load to load up on oil. We're selling more oil

1414
01:15:47.560 --> 01:15:52.560
than ever. America is taking in lots of money because

1415
01:15:52.560 --> 01:15:54.680
of what's happened in Iran. And this is all to

1416
01:15:54.760 --> 01:15:56.640
the credit of Donald Trump.

1417
01:15:57.199 --> 01:16:00.840
You and you bring up an excellent point here, Scott,

1418
01:16:00.880 --> 01:16:03.119
and some people are missing the nuance. And I think

1419
01:16:03.119 --> 01:16:05.560
it's more than a nuance. It's quite obvious. You know,

1420
01:16:05.720 --> 01:16:11.720
in previous military engagements with under different presidents, they would

1421
01:16:11.880 --> 01:16:13.920
they would cast a vision say hey, this is what

1422
01:16:13.920 --> 01:16:16.840
we're doing and here it's going, and you had you

1423
01:16:16.880 --> 01:16:19.119
had to really just believe a lot of what they

1424
01:16:19.119 --> 01:16:22.079
were saying or what the media was reporting. Here you

1425
01:16:22.119 --> 01:16:25.199
can see, you know, the video footage. You can see

1426
01:16:25.199 --> 01:16:28.319
what Donald Trump is doing and how this thing is

1427
01:16:28.359 --> 01:16:31.039
starting to play out. It's not like he's doing this.

1428
01:16:31.479 --> 01:16:34.920
Are there some back room negotiations are going certainly, but

1429
01:16:35.039 --> 01:16:39.159
you can see the fruit of the decisions and choices

1430
01:16:39.199 --> 01:16:41.800
he's making on behalf of the American people to where

1431
01:16:41.800 --> 01:16:44.560
the American people are saying, okay, and I don't like

1432
01:16:44.600 --> 01:16:47.239
paying a dollar more a gallon. I got spoiled. I

1433
01:16:47.319 --> 01:16:50.760
like the lower gas prices, but for national security and

1434
01:16:50.840 --> 01:16:55.600
for the long term liberty of America and you know,

1435
01:16:55.720 --> 01:16:59.520
some fellow citizens of the world. Okay, that's a small

1436
01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:00.760
price to pay, right.

1437
01:17:01.279 --> 01:17:02.640
Yes, it is, it really is.

1438
01:17:02.800 --> 01:17:03.439
It's amazing.

1439
01:17:03.600 --> 01:17:07.079
Yeah, yeah, I mean just think about it. You know, Uh,

1440
01:17:07.319 --> 01:17:12.199
China used to get twenty percent of its oil from Venezuela.

1441
01:17:12.600 --> 01:17:15.720
Now they're getting no Venezuela and oil, well they're getting

1442
01:17:15.720 --> 01:17:19.079
it from US now America. America is controlling where the

1443
01:17:19.199 --> 01:17:21.239
Venezuela oil gets sold to.

1444
01:17:22.479 --> 01:17:24.560
And the deal is is Trump's happy to sell it

1445
01:17:24.600 --> 01:17:27.039
to g right, He's not like saying, hey I got it,

1446
01:17:27.079 --> 01:17:29.159
you're not going to get it. Hey I have oil.

1447
01:17:29.199 --> 01:17:31.239
I know you need it, so you know, I'm happy

1448
01:17:31.279 --> 01:17:33.119
to happy to give the price. And then if you,

1449
01:17:33.279 --> 01:17:37.239
if you dare go ahead and reinforce Iran and you

1450
01:17:37.319 --> 01:17:40.159
send them weaponry, guess what I'm going to throw a

1451
01:17:40.199 --> 01:17:43.880
fifty percent tearoff on on this oil.

1452
01:17:44.640 --> 01:17:49.000
Yeah right, yes, yeah yeah, And they were and the

1453
01:17:49.079 --> 01:17:52.279
Chinese were spoiled by striking a deal with they're own

1454
01:17:52.319 --> 01:17:54.279
where they were buying oil well below.

1455
01:17:54.359 --> 01:17:58.680
Oh my goodness, yes, what a dam Yeah exactly. So

1456
01:17:58.800 --> 01:18:01.920
that party's over and so Trump's got that card and

1457
01:18:02.319 --> 01:18:05.439
he's playing it to the advantage of America in China

1458
01:18:05.479 --> 01:18:07.720
because meanwhile, I mean, we've got a lot to deal

1459
01:18:07.760 --> 01:18:11.000
with China. I mean, we're just so enmeshed in them,

1460
01:18:11.000 --> 01:18:12.640
and I don't know that we'll ever be able to

1461
01:18:12.680 --> 01:18:16.600
decouple from them because we still have a big problem

1462
01:18:16.640 --> 01:18:20.039
that's never been resolved Scott, and it's called COVID.

1463
01:18:20.560 --> 01:18:23.239
Yes, yeah, yeah, and other things as well.

1464
01:18:23.279 --> 01:18:24.680
But you're right, you're right.

1465
01:18:27.039 --> 01:18:30.279
But you know, China is one of the largest Christian

1466
01:18:30.359 --> 01:18:31.359
nations in the world.

1467
01:18:32.680 --> 01:18:35.760
The church's underground and underground. I was going to say underground, yes,

1468
01:18:36.199 --> 01:18:36.880
but it's real.

1469
01:18:37.000 --> 01:18:39.880
I mean, the underground church is more vibrant and more

1470
01:18:40.560 --> 01:18:43.600
you know, you know, more near and dear to God,

1471
01:18:43.680 --> 01:18:46.199
with the presence of the Holy Spirit. That we don't

1472
01:18:46.239 --> 01:18:49.199
know what's what the future is, but it could be

1473
01:18:49.239 --> 01:18:53.760
a very powerful spiritual revival that grows in China and

1474
01:18:53.880 --> 01:18:58.079
transforms China. Wouldn't that be wonderful? That's what's happening in Iran.

1475
01:18:58.199 --> 01:19:01.960
By the way, Yes, you know, there's only about two

1476
01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:05.279
million Christians in Iran out of a population of some

1477
01:19:05.399 --> 01:19:08.000
ninety ninety or ninety two million, So it's it's a

1478
01:19:08.039 --> 01:19:12.319
small base. But the Iranian Christian Church is growing faster

1479
01:19:12.439 --> 01:19:14.239
than any other church in the world is growing. It

1480
01:19:14.720 --> 01:19:19.159
has about a twenty percent growth rate, right, So that means.

1481
01:19:18.960 --> 01:19:22.439
Well, it's the power of light, yeah versus darkness.

1482
01:19:22.560 --> 01:19:22.840
Yeah.

1483
01:19:22.920 --> 01:19:24.840
Yeah, you know, it doesn't take a whole lot of

1484
01:19:24.920 --> 01:19:28.880
light to penetrate darkness. And when it does, the contrast

1485
01:19:28.960 --> 01:19:30.199
is so evident.

1486
01:19:29.960 --> 01:19:34.000
Right, Oh, absolutely. I mean when you compare you know

1487
01:19:34.079 --> 01:19:36.720
what you know, what Jesus taught and what Jesus would

1488
01:19:36.760 --> 01:19:41.840
have us do in terms of human relationships, you compare

1489
01:19:41.840 --> 01:19:46.079
it to what the Muslims do in practice, and it's

1490
01:19:46.119 --> 01:19:48.920
it's it is a stark night and day difference.

1491
01:19:49.760 --> 01:19:50.680
You know.

1492
01:19:50.760 --> 01:19:56.119
We we affirm women, women have rights. We you know,

1493
01:19:56.520 --> 01:20:00.479
we don't believe in forcing people to believe in Christian sanity.

1494
01:20:01.199 --> 01:20:04.640
We but we do evangelize and we invite people to

1495
01:20:04.800 --> 01:20:09.960
discover the truth in scripture, to discover the Savior, and

1496
01:20:09.960 --> 01:20:14.039
and and and once discovered, why would you live your

1497
01:20:14.079 --> 01:20:16.840
life separately from the Savior. You want the Savior part

1498
01:20:16.840 --> 01:20:19.119
of your life. So this is how we that's how

1499
01:20:19.159 --> 01:20:22.359
we proselytize. We do it.

1500
01:20:22.640 --> 01:20:26.840
It's a lifestyle evangelism. Hopefully that we're representing Jesus in

1501
01:20:26.920 --> 01:20:30.600
such a way that it's an invitation for people to say,

1502
01:20:30.840 --> 01:20:32.640
you know, Scott, I want what you got.

1503
01:20:33.119 --> 01:20:37.880
That's right, right, right, right, it's so easily attainable. You know.

1504
01:20:37.920 --> 01:20:41.439
All the other religions of the world are based on works. Yeah,

1505
01:20:41.479 --> 01:20:45.680
the Muslim religion is very much based on works. Christianity

1506
01:20:45.760 --> 01:20:49.520
is unique in all of human history and being the

1507
01:20:49.600 --> 01:20:52.159
you know, the truth of God that is not based

1508
01:20:52.199 --> 01:20:55.439
on works. It is based on the Savior who stood

1509
01:20:55.479 --> 01:20:59.439
in our place where sinners. He stood in our place,

1510
01:20:59.479 --> 01:21:03.720
took on all our sin and died for us in

1511
01:21:03.880 --> 01:21:07.640
order to forgive us, in order to facilitate a relationship

1512
01:21:07.680 --> 01:21:08.039
with God.

1513
01:21:08.079 --> 01:21:10.880
It's so simple, exactly well. You know, as was brought

1514
01:21:10.880 --> 01:21:12.560
out in the movie A Great Awakening, you and I

1515
01:21:12.600 --> 01:21:16.399
talked about, there's no other religion, there's no other source

1516
01:21:16.520 --> 01:21:19.920
for liberty. That's right from God. God is the source

1517
01:21:19.960 --> 01:21:22.840
of liberty, and that's what our very soul cries out for.

1518
01:21:22.880 --> 01:21:25.239
We got to leave it there, Scott Powell, he is

can go to Bill Martinez Live dot com. You know

1592
01:25:16.319 --> 01:25:20.199
this is a color rectal cancer Awareness month, and with

1593
01:25:20.279 --> 01:25:23.640
that in mind, you need to be aware that it

1594
01:25:23.760 --> 01:25:27.319
is the second Colorrectal cancer is the second leading cause

1595
01:25:27.359 --> 01:25:30.000
of cancer death in the United States and the leading

1596
01:25:30.079 --> 01:25:33.680
cause for adults under fifty. Yet, many Americans are delaying

1597
01:25:33.840 --> 01:25:38.680
or skipping life saving colonoscopies because of unexpected out of

1598
01:25:38.720 --> 01:25:43.079
pocket costs for essential preparation medications. Well, despite federal law

1599
01:25:43.159 --> 01:25:46.840
requiring preventive screenings to be fully covered, eighty three percent

1600
01:25:46.840 --> 01:25:50.239
of patients still pay for these medications. The effectiveness of

1601
01:25:50.239 --> 01:25:55.960
a colonoscopy depends on proper preparation. Inadequate preparation can lead

1602
01:25:56.039 --> 01:26:00.000
to miss polyps, repeat procedures, or delayed diagnosis, putting paid

1603
01:26:00.399 --> 01:26:03.880
lives at risk. Here to tell us more about it

1604
01:26:03.920 --> 01:26:07.479
is doctor Eric Shaw doctor Shaw. Welcome Michelle. Good to

1605
01:26:07.520 --> 01:26:08.760
have you with us.

1606
01:26:09.319 --> 01:26:10.560
Thank you Bill for having me.

1607
01:26:11.239 --> 01:26:14.800
Well, this is important, needless to say when you consider

1608
01:26:14.920 --> 01:26:19.479
that color rector cancer is responsible for the second leading

1609
01:26:19.600 --> 01:26:22.920
cause of deaths here in our country. And you say

1610
01:26:22.920 --> 01:26:27.920
that screening cancer screening is so critical, especially for younger adults.

1611
01:26:28.000 --> 01:26:33.960
Right absolutely, the screening age changed from fifty up to

1612
01:26:34.319 --> 01:26:38.159
forty five and up just recently to get a colonoscopy.

1613
01:26:38.279 --> 01:26:40.880
This is for patients who don't have a family history

1614
01:26:40.880 --> 01:26:44.439
of colon cancer. And we're also seeing many other patients

1615
01:26:44.439 --> 01:26:47.960
who are under forty five who have rectal bleeding, change

1616
01:26:48.000 --> 01:26:50.479
in bowel habits. You know, it's not just hemorrhoids, not

1617
01:26:50.560 --> 01:26:53.600
something to brush off. It's time to go talk to

1618
01:26:53.640 --> 01:26:54.640
your doctor and get in.

1619
01:26:55.479 --> 01:26:58.319
Yeah, if you have these indications, forget about your age,

1620
01:26:58.479 --> 01:27:00.159
you need to get screened.

1621
01:26:59.800 --> 01:27:04.079
Right absolutely, And that bowel prep is the thing that

1622
01:27:04.119 --> 01:27:06.720
stands in the way for a lot of people, over

1623
01:27:06.800 --> 01:27:09.560
half of people that get a positive at home test.

1624
01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:11.560
And you know we do see these at home test

1625
01:27:12.039 --> 01:27:16.680
uh commercials on TV, on the radio and UH. When

1626
01:27:16.720 --> 01:27:19.560
patients have a positive test, that means there's there's something

1627
01:27:19.600 --> 01:27:22.960
to be concerned about over half don't complete that follow

1628
01:27:23.039 --> 01:27:25.079
up colonoscopy within a year, and a lot of it has.

1629
01:27:25.239 --> 01:27:27.239
It comes down to that prep.

1630
01:27:27.640 --> 01:27:32.520
Right, well, uh, exactly, and why are patients being charged

1631
01:27:32.520 --> 01:27:36.439
for preparation medications? And how are costs affecting whether people

1632
01:27:36.479 --> 01:27:37.159
get screened?

1633
01:27:38.520 --> 01:27:40.920
You know? And that's the funny thing. They're not supposed

1634
01:27:40.960 --> 01:27:46.359
to be charged. So the CMS charges that patients are

1635
01:27:46.399 --> 01:27:50.560
supposed to have a screening colonoscopy within their insurance plans.

1636
01:27:50.560 --> 01:27:54.840
That's within Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurers. Patients are supposed

1637
01:27:54.880 --> 01:27:57.760
to have access to colon cancer screening to be able

1638
01:27:57.760 --> 01:28:00.920
to get screening done. This is a preventable key answer, okay.

1639
01:28:01.760 --> 01:28:06.079
And what's unfortunately happened is that insurance companies right now

1640
01:28:06.279 --> 01:28:10.920
are steering patients to outdated, harder to tolerate bowel preparation options.

1641
01:28:11.239 --> 01:28:15.199
Patients aren't even being offered choices when it comes to

1642
01:28:15.239 --> 01:28:18.159
what bowel prep they could do. There are did you

1643
01:28:18.199 --> 01:28:22.760
know their newer, modern FDA approved low volume options that

1644
01:28:22.920 --> 01:28:25.560
patients should be able to talk to their doctors about

1645
01:28:25.600 --> 01:28:27.760
that patients simply they don't even know about, They don't

1646
01:28:27.800 --> 01:28:32.000
hear about, and the insurance companies aren't covering.

1647
01:28:32.399 --> 01:28:35.239
Well, doctor Shaw. Once again, we're reminded by your statement

1648
01:28:35.279 --> 01:28:39.119
here that we are our own best advocate, or you know,

1649
01:28:39.239 --> 01:28:43.079
maybe it's a spouse that comes alongside as well to

1650
01:28:43.119 --> 01:28:46.680
ask these questions. So I trust that our listeners are

1651
01:28:46.720 --> 01:28:50.319
taking notes on this, because you know, you don't know,

1652
01:28:51.399 --> 01:28:54.560
and if you don't ask right, you.

1653
01:28:54.479 --> 01:28:56.880
Know exactly, and if you don't know, you know, you

1654
01:28:57.000 --> 01:28:59.880
might just be staring down a gallon jug, which is

1655
01:29:00.000 --> 01:29:04.279
sort of what the gastroinrologists and primary care docs used

1656
01:29:04.319 --> 01:29:08.760
to just routinely prescribe. Many cases still do. Many patients

1657
01:29:08.800 --> 01:29:12.079
get pushed into the over the counter aisle, and you

1658
01:29:12.119 --> 01:29:15.199
know that's that's where the patients have to pay everything.

1659
01:29:15.319 --> 01:29:18.079
You know, so the insurance company doesn't complain about that

1660
01:29:18.640 --> 01:29:21.520
their patients aren't getting offered the newer the newer preps

1661
01:29:21.520 --> 01:29:24.479
that are FDA approved, that meet medical standards that are

1662
01:29:24.520 --> 01:29:26.960
out there, or even they don't hear about them.

1663
01:29:27.760 --> 01:29:29.439
Can you unpack that a little bit more of these

1664
01:29:29.439 --> 01:29:31.600
newer preps that are available, because we've been hearing more

1665
01:29:31.640 --> 01:29:33.439
and more about this and I want our audience to

1666
01:29:33.439 --> 01:29:34.439
be aware, doctor Shaw.

1667
01:29:35.520 --> 01:29:38.000
Yeah, so there are newer preps that either come in

1668
01:29:38.000 --> 01:29:40.640
a pill form, or they come in two small bottles.

1669
01:29:41.359 --> 01:29:44.840
Rather than having to drink the large glass of water,

1670
01:29:45.199 --> 01:29:48.840
large glass of prep every ten minutes, it's two small bottles.

1671
01:29:49.880 --> 01:29:52.479
And you know what's important is patients with those preps

1672
01:29:52.479 --> 01:29:54.920
still have to drink an adequate amount of water. So

1673
01:29:54.960 --> 01:29:56.960
it does have instructions on the prep of how to

1674
01:29:57.000 --> 01:29:59.960
do it, but the amount of volume is a lot

1675
01:30:00.159 --> 01:30:03.119
less than what it used to be with the newer preparations.

1676
01:30:03.880 --> 01:30:06.600
And I think what frustrates a lot of us is

1677
01:30:06.600 --> 01:30:08.880
that we see patients saying, you know, I'll just put

1678
01:30:08.880 --> 01:30:11.239
this off. I'll do it next year. And to your point,

1679
01:30:11.640 --> 01:30:13.880
you know, I think that the partner of the loved one,

1680
01:30:13.920 --> 01:30:19.600
the spouse, is really you know, it's really important to

1681
01:30:18.920 --> 01:30:21.840
to to really help the help our patients, help help

1682
01:30:21.880 --> 01:30:25.119
the public get in for this screening test that you know,

1683
01:30:25.239 --> 01:30:27.520
toling cancer is preventable. You just have to come on

1684
01:30:27.600 --> 01:30:29.560
in and get screened, you.

1685
01:30:29.520 --> 01:30:32.399
Know, doctor shaw Uh. You know, I'm glad that they're

1686
01:30:32.479 --> 01:30:35.319
lowering the age. In fact, I was surprised they stopped

1687
01:30:35.319 --> 01:30:38.439
at forty five. I remember when I first read that,

1688
01:30:38.479 --> 01:30:41.279
I said, why, why, why they're why didn't they you know,

1689
01:30:41.359 --> 01:30:44.079
might as well, just go to forty uh in terms

1690
01:30:44.119 --> 01:30:47.640
of as as a warning because as we know, it's

1691
01:30:47.720 --> 01:30:50.680
all about you know, with anything cancer, you know, the

1692
01:30:50.760 --> 01:30:54.920
earlier the better when you find out about it, right, Yeah, you.

1693
01:30:54.920 --> 01:30:56.600
Know, and I think a lot of us have that

1694
01:30:56.640 --> 01:30:59.760
same question too. You know that if you have a

1695
01:31:00.079 --> 01:31:03.479
US that can find early legions that are small a

1696
01:31:03.600 --> 01:31:07.159
decade before a patient has a chance to even get cancer,

1697
01:31:07.319 --> 01:31:11.079
so patients stay cancer free. That's ideal. I wish we

1698
01:31:11.159 --> 01:31:13.720
had the type that type of test for all cancers,

1699
01:31:13.760 --> 01:31:17.239
you know, we don't, but we do for colon cancer.

1700
01:31:17.319 --> 01:31:20.800
And and so that's where this this prep issue really

1701
01:31:20.840 --> 01:31:21.840
really comes into play.

1702
01:31:22.800 --> 01:31:25.640
Well exactly, we're talking with doctor Eric Shaw, and he's

1703
01:31:25.680 --> 01:31:30.079
the gastro entrologist at the University of Michigan and an

1704
01:31:30.119 --> 01:31:36.000
associate professor in gastro Enterology and Hepatology and director of

1705
01:31:36.039 --> 01:31:41.079
the Michigan Medicine GI Physiology Laboratories. They're testing my ability

1706
01:31:41.119 --> 01:31:43.359
to say some of these words, doctor Shaw. Hopefully I

1707
01:31:43.399 --> 01:31:44.079
passed the test.

1708
01:31:44.079 --> 01:31:47.680
Okay, you totally did our You know, the core of

1709
01:31:47.720 --> 01:31:50.239
what we do is colon cancer screening. So you know,

1710
01:31:50.319 --> 01:31:52.560
for all those thank you for all those nice things.

1711
01:31:52.560 --> 01:31:55.520
It's really about taking care of patients, making sure that

1712
01:31:55.520 --> 01:31:58.720
we get our colon cancer screening done. That is by

1713
01:31:58.800 --> 01:32:01.439
far and away the demo gratifying part of this job.

1714
01:32:02.279 --> 01:32:05.760
Well, and as you said, a critical aspect of a

1715
01:32:05.800 --> 01:32:08.319
colonoscopy is preparation.

1716
01:32:08.119 --> 01:32:13.560
Right, yes, So about prep means that a patient will

1717
01:32:13.720 --> 01:32:16.079
have to clear the colon out of all the stool

1718
01:32:16.159 --> 01:32:18.439
and all the debris so that the doctor can see

1719
01:32:19.039 --> 01:32:23.560
what they're doing and make sure with confidence that there

1720
01:32:23.600 --> 01:32:25.960
are no polyps, there are no cancers in there, there's

1721
01:32:26.000 --> 01:32:29.760
nothing to worry about. And a clean colonoscopy means a

1722
01:32:29.760 --> 01:32:33.000
patient can go a decade ten years if there's no

1723
01:32:33.159 --> 01:32:37.079
family history and no other warning signs, no polyps, you know,

1724
01:32:37.199 --> 01:32:40.520
normal colonoscopy. Typically patients go every ten years for those.

1725
01:32:40.600 --> 01:32:42.800
So you know, once you get in and get it done,

1726
01:32:42.800 --> 01:32:46.039
it really takes the load off after that. And so

1727
01:32:46.119 --> 01:32:48.439
but getting in is the key. That's how we find

1728
01:32:48.479 --> 01:32:50.239
these cancers, right.

1729
01:32:51.680 --> 01:32:55.680
You know, again, the sense of urgency about a colonoscopy

1730
01:32:55.840 --> 01:32:59.520
and color rectal cancer has increased in such a way

1731
01:32:59.560 --> 01:33:04.039
that you know, this year, Congress past the Consolidated Appropriations

1732
01:33:04.039 --> 01:33:06.840
Act of twenty twenty six, which urges the Centers for

1733
01:33:06.960 --> 01:33:11.159
Medicare and Medical Services to clarify that patients should have

1734
01:33:11.319 --> 01:33:15.840
access to all FDA approved bowel preparations, right.

1735
01:33:16.760 --> 01:33:20.239
You know, and I'll finish on this. That CMS runs

1736
01:33:20.319 --> 01:33:25.039
Medicare and Medicaid at the federal level, they also commercial

1737
01:33:25.079 --> 01:33:29.079
insurance plans to follow what they say, and you know,

1738
01:33:29.279 --> 01:33:33.000
CMS just needs to issue a guidance that would prevent

1739
01:33:33.119 --> 01:33:36.640
patients from being steered to outdated, harder to tolerate options

1740
01:33:37.319 --> 01:33:40.159
and to treat bowel prep as part of this screening

1741
01:33:40.920 --> 01:33:44.880
benefit that all patients are entitled to with their insurance plans,

1742
01:33:45.560 --> 01:33:48.319
not as an optional add on. And so this is

1743
01:33:48.359 --> 01:33:51.960
the time to contact your electric representatives that are in

1744
01:33:52.000 --> 01:33:54.800
office and your senators to urge CMS to do this.

1745
01:33:55.760 --> 01:33:59.039
Congress and the President passed a law that encouraged CMS

1746
01:33:59.079 --> 01:34:02.039
to do this. They need your help. So contacting your

1747
01:34:02.039 --> 01:34:06.119
elected representatives, that's what the ASGE is asking for. And

1748
01:34:06.159 --> 01:34:09.880
to learn more about this, visit a SGE dot org

1749
01:34:10.119 --> 01:34:14.760
that's American Society for gastro Intestinal Dascopy ASGE dot org

1750
01:34:14.800 --> 01:34:15.399
to learn more.

1751
01:34:15.920 --> 01:34:19.560
Well, doctor Shaw, why is CMS delaying on this? I

1752
01:34:19.600 --> 01:34:23.479
mean the responsibility you know for Medicare patients and Medicaid.

1753
01:34:23.640 --> 01:34:26.319
You know patients and the services that they offer, you

1754
01:34:26.359 --> 01:34:29.720
would think that just a natural reaction would be, uh,

1755
01:34:29.800 --> 01:34:31.800
you know, to get this information out.

1756
01:34:32.960 --> 01:34:35.840
That is the question, and so that is the question

1757
01:34:36.000 --> 01:34:40.439
that patients and advocates should ask of their elected representatives

1758
01:34:40.439 --> 01:34:44.119
to ask CMS to please please close this loophole. And

1759
01:34:44.239 --> 01:34:47.119
why has this not been done already? And exactly, Bill,

1760
01:34:47.159 --> 01:34:48.760
I really want to thank you for your time.

1761
01:34:49.000 --> 01:34:51.239

1838
01:39:00.039 --> 01:39:02.439
Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez here along with Jeff camp

1839
01:39:02.479 --> 01:39:05.920
the ministry leader and author and former NFLQB Heymous. Jeff,

1840
01:39:06.359 --> 01:39:10.640
you just got back from another marriage intensive hun.

1841
01:39:11.319 --> 01:39:14.359
Yeah, Stacy and I just came back from Kalamazoo, Michigan

1842
01:39:14.800 --> 01:39:18.439
with two hundred couples for the weekend to remember put

1843
01:39:18.439 --> 01:39:20.640
on back in the life. We speak about four times

1844
01:39:20.680 --> 01:39:25.000
a year at those. But it's amazing Bill to see couples.

1845
01:39:25.359 --> 01:39:28.439
There were some in there with divorce papers already signed.

1846
01:39:29.079 --> 01:39:31.960
There were couples that were not sitting together on the

1847
01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:34.880
first day. There was a woman that came without her husband.

1848
01:39:36.159 --> 01:39:38.479
There were couples that were struggling. There were couples that

1849
01:39:38.520 --> 01:39:41.600
were fine and wanting a refresher, and there were a

1850
01:39:41.640 --> 01:39:44.479
couple engaged in brand new couples that were getting off

1851
01:39:44.479 --> 01:39:47.680
to a great start. And it was a really amazing,

1852
01:39:47.840 --> 01:39:53.920
excellent weekend focusing on God's beautiful gift, the institutional marriage

1853
01:39:53.920 --> 01:39:55.640
and the work it takes to make it shine.

1854
01:39:56.159 --> 01:39:59.159
When you have such a diverse group like that, how

1855
01:39:59.159 --> 01:40:03.439
do you tree two hundred couples to where you help

1856
01:40:03.520 --> 01:40:05.680
them in the area of their specific need.

1857
01:40:06.600 --> 01:40:10.079
That's a great question. I think they know when they

1858
01:40:10.079 --> 01:40:11.960
come to the weekend, and remember, they're not going to

1859
01:40:11.960 --> 01:40:15.600
get personal counseling like they would at the marriage intensives

1860
01:40:15.600 --> 01:40:18.119
that you know Bob Paul was talking about with the

1861
01:40:18.159 --> 01:40:22.880
counselor and four couples by the same token, they're wanting

1862
01:40:22.920 --> 01:40:28.479
to hear a message of realism and hope and a

1863
01:40:28.640 --> 01:40:31.960
couple guiding principles for how to start getting back together.

1864
01:40:32.079 --> 01:40:38.640
All right, they will get prayed for by individual Prayer

1865
01:40:38.720 --> 01:40:42.439
Team volunteers who are there if they asked. Secondly, that

1866
01:40:42.479 --> 01:40:45.079
team's been praying for them by name for months ever

1867
01:40:45.119 --> 01:40:50.880
since they registered. But the flow of the event is

1868
01:40:51.279 --> 01:40:53.960
on Friday. We remind everyone that everyone has a dream

1869
01:40:54.079 --> 01:40:57.000
to be happy, to be joyful in essence, to be one.

1870
01:40:57.199 --> 01:41:00.640
That's the goal for marriage is oneness. That's God's nature,

1871
01:41:00.720 --> 01:41:05.279
father son, spirit in one relationship of unity. But we

1872
01:41:05.439 --> 01:41:08.920
drift toward isolation. So we talk about that we all

1873
01:41:08.960 --> 01:41:11.359
face the dream, but we all face the threats of

1874
01:41:11.399 --> 01:41:17.159
our selfishness internally. Externally, the world and work and lies

1875
01:41:17.279 --> 01:41:21.640
and deception and social media temptation are pulling you away,

1876
01:41:22.479 --> 01:41:25.880
an invisible threat that's Satan. He wants to break up

1877
01:41:25.920 --> 01:41:28.640
marriages and he wants to get you to point the

1878
01:41:28.680 --> 01:41:32.800
finger instead of look at your own issues. So we

1879
01:41:32.880 --> 01:41:35.159
let them know that everyone goes through this kind of

1880
01:41:36.000 --> 01:41:40.880
loss of the dream because of these threats. But then

1881
01:41:40.920 --> 01:41:44.840
you need to regain God's dream for marriage, not your dream.

1882
01:41:45.000 --> 01:41:47.039
We want to be happily ever after and have an easy,

1883
01:41:47.079 --> 01:41:51.279
cozy life, but God knows that marriage is meant to

1884
01:41:51.319 --> 01:41:53.640
conform you more to the image of Christ, crush your

1885
01:41:53.640 --> 01:41:57.079
selfishness out and it glorifies Him, and it has a

1886
01:41:57.079 --> 01:41:59.560
purpose larger than you. It's a blessing to your children

1887
01:41:59.600 --> 01:42:03.239
into other couples. So then we'll move into how to

1888
01:42:03.279 --> 01:42:08.159
communicate safely, how to talk through, how to forgive through

1889
01:42:08.199 --> 01:42:10.800
the power of God, how to rebuild trust over time,

1890
01:42:10.840 --> 01:42:16.880
and accountability. We talk about marital intimacy and how many

1891
01:42:17.119 --> 01:42:22.159
things compromise that before marriage and in society, including pornography,

1892
01:42:22.159 --> 01:42:24.960
and that there are very clear ways to heal from

1893
01:42:24.960 --> 01:42:27.039
that and you're not the only one with that problem.

1894
01:42:27.560 --> 01:42:31.159
And the speakers like Stacy and myself, part of the

1895
01:42:31.159 --> 01:42:33.279
triage is we let them know that we're imperfect and

1896
01:42:33.319 --> 01:42:36.079
we've had struggles, and they need to know that they're

1897
01:42:36.119 --> 01:42:39.439
not alone and you're not the only one, and people

1898
01:42:39.439 --> 01:42:43.600
have recovered from that before, So by Sunday, I think

1899
01:42:43.640 --> 01:42:47.600
they see that it's a long journey. This moment doesn't

1900
01:42:47.600 --> 01:42:51.439
determine the future. And God is bigger than they realize.

1901
01:42:51.720 --> 01:42:53.720
And if they turn to him and draw upon him

1902
01:42:53.720 --> 01:42:56.640
and his power and the Holy Spirit's influence, he can

1903
01:42:56.720 --> 01:43:00.600
forgive any sin, He could turn around any hurt. He

1904
01:43:00.640 --> 01:43:04.720
can turn a troubled marriage into a marriage and blesses others.

1905
01:43:05.159 --> 01:43:07.840
Yeah, hopefully when they leave they have a battle plan

1906
01:43:09.319 --> 01:43:12.119
against the against the evil one, not against one another,

1907
01:43:12.760 --> 01:43:16.199
but against against the evil one that wants to break

1908
01:43:16.279 --> 01:43:19.479
up their marriages. You know. One of the takeaways, key

1909
01:43:19.479 --> 01:43:23.840
takeaways for me, particularly this Lenten season, Jeff, has been

1910
01:43:23.880 --> 01:43:27.159
that when you consider the pattern and what God was

1911
01:43:27.239 --> 01:43:31.600
calling for during this Lenten season, it was the the

1912
01:43:31.640 --> 01:43:35.479
elimination of corruption. That God wants to have a connection

1913
01:43:35.640 --> 01:43:38.479
with us, and in order to have a connection, we

1914
01:43:38.680 --> 01:43:42.159
have to get rid of those impurities, all kinds of

1915
01:43:42.159 --> 01:43:45.720
things like you mentioned, you know, wounds that we've had,

1916
01:43:46.920 --> 01:43:49.199
maybe no fault of our own, maybe as a child.

1917
01:43:49.359 --> 01:43:52.039
I mean, there could be hereditary wounds, you know, on

1918
01:43:52.159 --> 01:43:56.199
and on, but you can't get to that point on

1919
01:43:56.239 --> 01:43:58.960
your own that you really need to come before a

1920
01:43:59.000 --> 01:44:02.239
holy God to be you know, to have your eyes

1921
01:44:02.319 --> 01:44:05.039
open so that you know what you're dealing with. Because

1922
01:44:05.039 --> 01:44:09.319
sometimes in relationships, as you know, in marriages, you know,

1923
01:44:09.960 --> 01:44:13.600
as the Psalmist wrote about, sometimes it's those unknown sins,

1924
01:44:13.640 --> 01:44:16.640
those things that we don't perceive that are there, they're

1925
01:44:16.720 --> 01:44:19.399
getting in the way that are corrupting and interfering with

1926
01:44:19.439 --> 01:44:22.720
that ability to connect with the Holy God. But God

1927
01:44:23.000 --> 01:44:26.680
needs to refine as to where there can be that connection,

1928
01:44:26.920 --> 01:44:28.159
right Yeah.

1929
01:44:28.199 --> 01:44:31.800
I mean, we'll never eliminate all of our sin, and

1930
01:44:31.840 --> 01:44:34.920
you don't eliminate all of the consequences of someone's sin

1931
01:44:35.159 --> 01:44:40.439
against you, trauma, sexual abuse in the past. You'll make

1932
01:44:40.479 --> 01:44:43.000
mistakes in the future, but you can be fully forgiven

1933
01:44:44.039 --> 01:44:48.760
for your sin, and you can forgive the person who

1934
01:44:49.359 --> 01:44:52.000
has sinned against you. And what that does is it

1935
01:44:52.039 --> 01:44:55.119
sets you free from something that Satan uses as a

1936
01:44:55.159 --> 01:44:59.359
stronghold to bond to, you know, put you in bondage

1937
01:44:59.760 --> 01:45:03.159
to living in the past, living in anger, and that

1938
01:45:03.319 --> 01:45:07.840
separates you from your heavenly Father and from other people

1939
01:45:08.199 --> 01:45:14.199
because you're stuck with a negative mindset. So I think

1940
01:45:14.279 --> 01:45:16.479
you talked about what are the things that the Lentin

1941
01:45:16.560 --> 01:45:21.000
season helps purify us from mention, wounds and traumas from

1942
01:45:21.039 --> 01:45:25.680
our past caused by others. And that comes from forgiveness,

1943
01:45:26.079 --> 01:45:28.840
all right, even if they don't change, we forgive them

1944
01:45:28.840 --> 01:45:32.920
and don't want to punish them anymore. Secondly, realizing that

1945
01:45:32.960 --> 01:45:36.520
God was with you in that moment and he loves you,

1946
01:45:37.439 --> 01:45:41.600
and you're not rejected and abandoned just because something terrible happened.

1947
01:45:41.359 --> 01:45:42.560
To you exactly.

1948
01:45:42.680 --> 01:45:47.640
And then it's the individual selfishness and the various sins

1949
01:45:47.640 --> 01:45:50.439
that come from your pride and selfishness and defensiveness and

1950
01:45:50.479 --> 01:45:55.039
angry words and the compromises that you've made that you

1951
01:45:55.079 --> 01:45:58.439
can be forgiven of. But when you diagnose these things

1952
01:45:58.520 --> 01:46:00.279
and get them in the open and talk about them,

1953
01:46:00.319 --> 01:46:04.279
that's why people go to counselors. But I've been encouraging people,

1954
01:46:04.319 --> 01:46:07.119
with your help, go build two friendships who you can

1955
01:46:07.119 --> 01:46:09.800
talk to this stuff, talk to with you know about

1956
01:46:09.800 --> 01:46:13.520
this stuff every week. When you when you diagnose what's

1957
01:46:13.600 --> 01:46:16.800
going on, God can heal it. It's like that's the

1958
01:46:16.840 --> 01:46:18.920
beginning of the healing. You got to know what it

1959
01:46:19.000 --> 01:46:23.560
is first. So the Bible says, search me and know me, Lord, well,

1960
01:46:23.560 --> 01:46:27.640
we ought to also search ourselves and where we're stuck

1961
01:46:27.880 --> 01:46:31.720
with sin or wounds of the past and let them go.

1962
01:46:32.000 --> 01:46:34.079
You said something funny about you need a battle plan,

1963
01:46:35.119 --> 01:46:37.880
but not against each other. In marriage, we actually have

1964
01:46:37.920 --> 01:46:40.199
the couples turned to each other at one point did

1965
01:46:40.199 --> 01:46:43.399
this and she said, say to your spouse, you are

1966
01:46:43.439 --> 01:46:46.880
not my enemy. And everyone in the audience says that

1967
01:46:47.399 --> 01:46:49.640
because we fall into this darn pattern where we think

1968
01:46:49.680 --> 01:46:51.680
our spouse is our enemy.

1969
01:46:52.319 --> 01:46:54.600
We're on the same team, Jeffy, you know, you know

1970
01:46:54.640 --> 01:46:57.119
team sports, right, I mean, just what you'd like to

1971
01:46:57.119 --> 01:46:59.880
do is have somebody alongside you, somebody you know, on

1972
01:47:00.079 --> 01:47:04.000
the offensive line, you know, not being on your team,

1973
01:47:04.439 --> 01:47:05.119
you know, right.

1974
01:47:05.600 --> 01:47:09.359
Practically speaking, when Stace and I get into a yucky

1975
01:47:09.960 --> 01:47:12.640
argument like we've gotten into before all usually it's a

1976
01:47:12.640 --> 01:47:15.840
little thing that we exaggerate and we dig in our heels, right.

1977
01:47:16.880 --> 01:47:19.680
We don't like the other person's style, so we complain

1978
01:47:19.720 --> 01:47:23.479
about it. She'll stop me sometimes, and sometimes I'm good

1979
01:47:23.479 --> 01:47:25.880
to stop myself, and she'll say, wait a minute, the

1980
01:47:26.039 --> 01:47:28.880
enemy is attacking us and trying to divide us, and

1981
01:47:29.239 --> 01:47:31.680
let's just pray. And then I'll just say a quick

1982
01:47:31.720 --> 01:47:35.399
prayer and say, God, you know, help us here, defeat

1983
01:47:35.520 --> 01:47:37.560
the enemy and get us back on the same team

1984
01:47:38.039 --> 01:47:41.439
very quickly. That turns it around. And I heard any husband,

1985
01:47:42.000 --> 01:47:46.359
any wife listening to call a time out when the

1986
01:47:46.359 --> 01:47:50.279
beginning of a conflict or a frustration or a negative

1987
01:47:50.319 --> 01:47:53.800
thing between the two of you happens, and just say, Hey,

1988
01:47:54.800 --> 01:47:59.000
God's enemy is trying to divide us. Let's pray real quick,

1989
01:48:00.239 --> 01:48:02.640
help us out here, get rid of the enemy. That

1990
01:48:02.760 --> 01:48:04.840
will change the rest of the trajectory.

1991
01:48:05.560 --> 01:48:05.840
Right.

1992
01:48:05.920 --> 01:48:07.920
And the thing is is that it sounds easy, you know,

1993
01:48:07.960 --> 01:48:09.920
hearing Jeff talk about it right now, But you understand

1994
01:48:09.960 --> 01:48:13.520
this takes practice because our flesh is such that it

1995
01:48:13.680 --> 01:48:17.680
always stubbornly wants its own way. But until you do

1996
01:48:17.760 --> 01:48:20.199
it God's way, and you continue to do it God's

1997
01:48:20.239 --> 01:48:24.119
way and realize the results of it, then you know

1998
01:48:24.439 --> 01:48:27.199
later on, you know, five years down the road or whenever,

1999
01:48:27.239 --> 01:48:29.840
when you realize, you go, God, why did we wait

2000
01:48:29.880 --> 01:48:30.840
so long? Right?

2001
01:48:31.520 --> 01:48:34.039
You know, we quoted Jesus and this might have been

2002
01:48:34.399 --> 01:48:39.199
using his exact context a little differently than he meant it,

2003
01:48:39.239 --> 01:48:42.640
but I think it applies to everything Jesus said. With man,

2004
01:48:42.760 --> 01:48:46.439
this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Yes, Well,

2005
01:48:46.479 --> 01:48:49.880
marriage is so difficult to get along all the time,

2006
01:48:50.079 --> 01:48:54.239
you know, to merge two very different personalities. It's impossible

2007
01:48:54.520 --> 01:48:57.720
to live in perfect harmony. And for some couples they

2008
01:48:57.800 --> 01:49:00.920
might think it's impossible for us to stay together. With God,

2009
01:49:01.439 --> 01:49:04.600
all things are possible. But that means you have to

2010
01:49:04.680 --> 01:49:07.600
be with God and build You and I are always

2011
01:49:07.600 --> 01:49:10.960
talking about how can we be more with God than

2012
01:49:11.000 --> 01:49:14.159
we were yesterday or last year. And that has a

2013
01:49:14.199 --> 01:49:19.399
lot to do with humility, that says God, I didn't

2014
01:49:19.439 --> 01:49:21.640
invent myself. I didn't create this world.

2015
01:49:21.680 --> 01:49:22.039
You did.

2016
01:49:23.039 --> 01:49:24.960
I can't live and make it on my own.

2017
01:49:25.039 --> 01:49:25.640
I need you.

2018
01:49:26.800 --> 01:49:30.439
I have messed up, so please forgive me. Now, help

2019
01:49:30.479 --> 01:49:33.399
me do the thing that works, which is the way

2020
01:49:33.479 --> 01:49:37.680
Jesus would have lived. That's being with God so that

2021
01:49:37.800 --> 01:49:42.880
all things are possible. Being loving, being forgiving, persevering, overcoming

2022
01:49:42.920 --> 01:49:47.119
an infidelity, getting out of an addiction of any sort,

2023
01:49:47.479 --> 01:49:51.000
being generous when you worried that you won't have enough money,

2024
01:49:51.439 --> 01:49:55.840
but giving. Let's go of fear anyway, exactly with God,

2025
01:49:55.880 --> 01:49:56.840
all things are possible.

2026
01:49:57.760 --> 01:50:00.680
And God says, hey, you can ask me for wisdom.

2027
01:50:00.720 --> 01:50:03.079
I will not hold it against you. Right, he loves it.

2028
01:50:03.359 --> 01:50:06.600
He freely gives us that wisdom that we ask for.

2029
01:50:06.960 --> 01:50:10.000
And also I would say to you that we're also

2030
01:50:10.039 --> 01:50:12.359
reminded in this word that we should pray for one

2031
01:50:12.359 --> 01:50:17.039
another that we would be healed. You know, yes, And

2032
01:50:17.560 --> 01:50:20.520
it talks about a confessing of our sins, you know,

2033
01:50:20.520 --> 01:50:23.319
to one another, having that group, that core group, or

2034
01:50:23.640 --> 01:50:25.079
you know a couple of people that you can go

2035
01:50:25.199 --> 01:50:28.319
to that can respect and honor what it is to

2036
01:50:28.399 --> 01:50:34.359
share something so personal and deep about your relationship that

2037
01:50:34.399 --> 01:50:38.520
they are trustworthy. And again, in time you will find

2038
01:50:39.039 --> 01:50:41.960
those people that you can trust and that they can

2039
01:50:42.000 --> 01:50:45.039
trust you, and that you will support one another through

2040
01:50:45.920 --> 01:50:49.079
through these valleys of the shadow of death that we

2041
01:50:49.119 --> 01:50:51.199
will go through there inevitable, right Jeff.

2042
01:50:51.520 --> 01:50:56.119
Yeah, Well, if you want to go fast, you can

2043
01:50:56.159 --> 01:50:58.920
go alone, but if you want to go far, you

2044
01:50:59.000 --> 01:51:01.039
need to go together. And what you just said is

2045
01:51:01.159 --> 01:51:04.760
we need good friends to help us be the person

2046
01:51:04.800 --> 01:51:07.279
we need to be to make our marriages and families work.

2047
01:51:07.640 --> 01:51:09.560
And a lot of folks were thinking, I don't have

2048
01:51:09.560 --> 01:51:14.119
those trustworthy friends. And I believe that God will help

2049
01:51:14.199 --> 01:51:18.600
us know who to build friendship with, how to build

2050
01:51:18.600 --> 01:51:21.199
friendship and trust with them and then stay in touch

2051
01:51:21.239 --> 01:51:23.760
with them to say this is what I need to confess.

2052
01:51:24.039 --> 01:51:26.640
Please pray for me, or I'll pray for you. That's

2053
01:51:26.720 --> 01:51:30.680
the main focus of my ministry with men in particular,

2054
01:51:30.720 --> 01:51:34.319
though women gain great benefit from the friendship tools. So

2055
01:51:34.359 --> 01:51:37.600
I urge anyone to say, I want strong friendships, and

2056
01:51:37.600 --> 01:51:41.319
I'm going to take steps to build that confidentiality, that trust,

2057
01:51:41.520 --> 01:51:44.399
the mutual purpose of what our friendship is, and then

2058
01:51:44.399 --> 01:51:46.640
I'm going to stay in touch with this best friend

2059
01:51:47.560 --> 01:51:50.079
every week to talk about how I'm doing in life.

2060
01:51:50.199 --> 01:51:53.560
Women need a best friend, women, men need a best friend,

2061
01:51:53.600 --> 01:51:55.000
man or a couple exactly.

2062
01:51:55.279 --> 01:51:56.680
Well, we got to leave it there. Where can they

2063
01:51:56.680 --> 01:51:57.439
go to get in touch?

2064
01:51:57.560 --> 01:52:01.960
