1
00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:01.600
Are you ready?

2
00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:05.960
Yeah, Okay, let's do an Ill Martina's Live, a program

3
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:07.440
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 --> 00:00:14.480
And now Bill Martinez.

6
00:00:14.759 --> 00:00:16.719
Hey, good morning to you. Six minutes after the top

7
00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:18.719
of the are right now, we've got the Assistant General

8
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:21.039
Counsel of Landmark League, the one and only Mike O'Neil,

9
00:00:21.120 --> 00:00:22.679
joining us. Hey, Michael, good morning.

10
00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:23.960
Good to be with you. Bill.

11
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:26.280
How are you well? You know, just having all kinds

12
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:28.079
of fun as if we had nothing to talk about.

13
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:31.679
The Democrats' heads are exploding. All the money that they

14
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:36.640
spent in Virginia on the redistricting wars has really backfired

15
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:37.679
on them a bit, hasn't it?

16
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:40.439
Right? And it was. It was a very brave decision

17
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.640
from on the part of the Virginia Supreme Court. Here

18
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:44.359
now we're going to throw over the course of our

19
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:45.840
discussion the next few minutes, we're going to be talking

20
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.039
about Supreme Court. So I want to be clear with this.

21
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:50.759
We're talking about the Virginia Supreme Court, not the US

22
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:52.799
Supreme Court. And we'll talk about the US Supreme Court

23
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:54.439
because of course they have a role to play at

24
00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:56.320
all of this as well. But this is a very

25
00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.640
brave decision from the Virginia Supreme Court, and it is

26
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:03.439
it really is common sense when you boil it down,

27
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:06.959
when you pass a constitutional amendment, and there's a prescribed

28
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:10.599
procedures in enacting a constitutional amendment, and this is what

29
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:12.239
they were trying to do. They were trying to they

30
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:15.560
were trying to pass a constitutional amendment. To the Democrats

31
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:18.840
in Virginia, we're trying to pass a constitutional amendment to

32
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:24.239
redistrict all of the congressional districts. Now under our federal

33
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:27.799
system and under our US federal Constitution, they're allowed to

34
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.760
do that. Right, State legislatures are and you're seeing this

35
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:34.120
all over the country, right, you're seeing it in Texas.

36
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:36.560
For political purposes belongs to spoils, Yes.

37
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:39.079
Exactly, You've seen that all over It's the gerrymandering wars

38
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:42.400
that we're engaging in right now. And Virginia was doing

39
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.319
that and there was no federal constitutional issue at play here.

40
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:49.640
There's no in other words, there's no there's no equal

41
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.000
protection issue or claim that can be played at This

42
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:54.280
is what they're permitted to do under our US Constitution

43
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:59.319
via the US Supreme Court's decision. However, you're still obligated

44
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:03.439
to follow law and state constitution when a state action,

45
00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.519
When a state actor takes action pursue it to state law,

46
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.520
they have to do it under the prescribe procedures of

47
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:13.159
state law exactly and under the state constitution. And if

48
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:15.400
you want, if a party or if an organist, if

49
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:18.080
a group wants to amend the Virginia Constitution, and this

50
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:20.319
is what we're talking about, the Virginia Constitution, not the

51
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:24.400
US Constitution, then they have to follow a given procedure

52
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:27.479
that's laid out in the constitution. So what does that mean?

53
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:30.120
What does that procedure entail? It means that you have

54
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:34.560
to before an election takes place, you have to have

55
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:38.319
the legislature in Virginia vote on the constitutional amendment. Then

56
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.599
an election has to take place. Then after that election,

57
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:45.120
there has to be another vote and then by that

58
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:49.800
legislature again upholding the amendment. And then after that it

59
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:51.479
has to be put to the people of Virginia for

60
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:53.879
an up or down vote, yes or no. So what

61
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:56.560
did they fail to do in this case? The original

62
00:02:56.639 --> 00:03:00.039
vote from the Legislature of Virginia was conducted during the

63
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:04.520
election process in twenty twenty five, and this is what

64
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.319
happened was it was done in October. Well, early voting

65
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.680
had already started and a lot of votes had already

66
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:15.159
been cast, so the opportunity so people had already voted.

67
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.680
So because it had, it wasn't done outside the course

68
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:22.240
of an election. It didn't follow the necessary procedures as

69
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:25.840
specified in the Virginia Constitution. Now this was clear to everybody.

70
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:28.680
We knew this going forward. It was that it was

71
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:32.400
constitutionally deficient. It was procedurally deficient. However, I think the

72
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:35.280
Democrats in Virginia were just hoping to gloss over that

73
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.439
and bully their way through the Virginia Supreme Court. They

74
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:41.319
the Supreme Court, the Virginia Supreme Court is a stickler

75
00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:45.159
for procedure. They're well not there. Their reputation is belt.

76
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:47.879
It's called belt and Suspender's law. It means if you

77
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:50.520
don't have all your eyes dotted or your tea's crossed,

78
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.000
it's not we're not gonna We're not gonna counter, no

79
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:54.800
matter how good your arguments are. No matter what your

80
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.120
arguments are, you have to you have to make sure

81
00:03:57.159 --> 00:03:59.960
you follow the rule of law and the procedures set

82
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.199
fourth in the Virginia Constitution and very clearly they didn't

83
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:06.000
do that. So that's what the Supreme Court ruled on.

84
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:08.000
The Virginia Supreme Court ruled on you didn't do you

85
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:11.960
didn't follow the procedures. You're not special. Every other constitutional

86
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.639
amendment has followed this procedure exactly. This doesn't do it.

87
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:18.600
And because this doesn't do it, you're out of luck here.

88
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:21.399
Now Virginia could go about the Democrats in Virginia could

89
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:24.079
redo this. Of course it'll push it back years, but

90
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:26.920
they could redo this process. But they have to follow

91
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.680
the rules, just like everybody else does.

92
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:35.160
What a waste? What did they spend forty eighty million

93
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:37.959
dollars that they basically just flushed down the toilet? Right?

94
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.319
Yeah, And it's funny because there was a lot of

95
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.040
political capital that was expended. I mean, Barack Obama was

96
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.199
out there talking about fairness running ads. Abigail Spamberg or

97
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:53.439
our governor has her her polling has just dropped precipitously.

98
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:56.439
She's at her lowest lowest approval rating I think ever

99
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:58.600
of a governor in Virginia. And she's only been in

100
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:01.439
office for you know, three or four months, so it's

101
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:04.800
not going well. And they their lawyers should have prepped

102
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:07.399
them for this. You know, lawyers, you know at the outset,

103
00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:10.199
we knew at Landmark, other people knew that you were

104
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:12.639
making the arguments. It was clean, it was a clean legal,

105
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:16.920
procedural argument, and they should have been prepared for this.

106
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:19.639
But I think they thought, well, if the people of

107
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:22.399
Virginia vote up, hold this, the court's gonna the Court's gonna,

108
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:24.879
you know, not override the will of the people. But look,

109
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:27.639
Virginia Supreme Court, it was a very brave decision. Ironic,

110
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:31.600
not ironically, but interestingly, the decision was written by a

111
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:33.680
justice on the on the Virginia Supreme Court who was

112
00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:38.240
originally placed on the appellate Court by Senator Warner, who

113
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.199
is a Democrat senator from Virginia, but he was also

114
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:44.399
the governor of Virginia and he's a Democrat. So you

115
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:49.399
had a Democrat, sensibly a Democrat appointed justice who was

116
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:52.439
who was the operative decision. And again politics didn't play

117
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:53.920
a part in this. In the decision, it was just

118
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:56.639
a procedural matter about you have to follow the rules.

119
00:05:57.360 --> 00:05:58.360
That's just the bottom line.

120
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:00.800
Well, well, once again it seems to be in alignment

121
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.519
with the character of Virginia. I mean, before all this

122
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:08.360
came out, you know, their redistrict or their districting map

123
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:11.959
was said to be one of the fairest in the land. Yeah,

124
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:16.199
and so fair and consistent, and so here they are.

125
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.800
They a decision is brought to the state Supreme Court

126
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:23.399
and fair minded as they are, as you do. I'm

127
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:26.279
going to be using Belton suspenders forever. Now, I love that.

128
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.040
But that's exactly right. I mean, they played by the rules.

129
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:30.279
Now.

130
00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:33.120
I know people on the right have been a little

131
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:36.480
nervous because there have been some judges and activism has

132
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.920
taken place that the rules mean nothing. It's more about

133
00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:43.519
you know, politics. So you know, God bless the Virginia

134
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:44.319
Supreme Court.

135
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:48.319
Yeah, there are in Virginia. It's interesting because there's this

136
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:51.519
and it's you still see the I call it messages.

137
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:53.879
I would like to think a stronger word than this.

138
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:57.199
But Virginia has long again I practiced in Virginia in

139
00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:00.000
my life. Virginia has long held the South held It's

140
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.639
out as a tradition based state. Look, this is how

141
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:06.199
we do it. We're above the you know, you know

142
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:08.319
they don't they call it it's it's Virginia's they call

143
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:10.160
it it's a commonwealth, not a state. Well why they

144
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.480
call it commonwealth. Well, it's tradition, you know, and there's

145
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:14.879
a reason why we call it commonwealth. In Virginia. You

146
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:18.319
are attorney and counselor at law. So it's all of

147
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:21.439
this kind of hearkens back to again I use that

148
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:26.079
term Belton, suspenders. We try to stay above the missmash

149
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:29.000
and the dirtiness of politics. Here we are. We follow

150
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:31.399
the rule of law. That's paramount. This is our ideals

151
00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:34.680
we strive for. And it's good to see that still

152
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:37.079
in existence in the Supreme Court in Virginia. And again

153
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:39.360
I don't practice in the Supreme Court in Virginia, but

154
00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:42.839
the reputation is again, if you miss it by one,

155
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:45.319
you know, you you you turn into brief. You submit

156
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:48.759
a brief one minute late. It's late. It's not going

157
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:51.879
to be accepted. You don't look. We still term our

158
00:07:52.279 --> 00:07:55.279
we if you don't use the proper headings the way

159
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:59.480
it's termed, an answer isn't an answer, it's a demure

160
00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:02.920
in for JAA. So in Virginia civil procedure. So it's

161
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:06.279
all this kind of hearkens back to tradition, Leyden, but

162
00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:11.040
suspenders above the dirtiness of politics, and so you kind

163
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:13.040
of see that this is what the Supreme Court was,

164
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:15.920
the Virginia Supreme War was doing, again a brave decision,

165
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:19.439
but in line with their reputation and not I mean

166
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:23.839
not unexpected in retrospect. I was surprised because I thought

167
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:27.319
that they would cave in this era of politics. But

168
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:29.959
when you really think about how they're organized and how

169
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:34.879
they operate in retrospect, it's not surprising. But the subsequent

170
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:39.120
actions by the Democrats have been wholly characteristic not surprising either.

171
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.279
You know what you saw here, you saw Hakeim Jeffries

172
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.799
at least reportedly was batting around this crazy idea to

173
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:49.960
lower to pass the law that would lower the mandatory

174
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:53.000
retirement age in Virginia for something Coourt justices from seventy

175
00:08:53.039 --> 00:08:55.440
four to fifty four, seventy five to fifty four, and

176
00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:58.279
you say fifty four, that's a random number. Well, it

177
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:01.679
would disqualify all of the sitting justices on there. So

178
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:03.840
they just you know, they pass a law and they

179
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:04.639
kick them all out.

180
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:06.039

242
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.559

243
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.720
living in a society where fifty six percent feel their

244
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:25.000
spiritual life is entirely private, but the Tide is determined

245
00:12:25.039 --> 00:12:27.440

272
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:45.440
Hey, we're back with the where with Micronelical, Landmark Legal.

273
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:49.519
As you said, the lefts had exploded. I mean, all

274
00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:50.559
the political capital.

275
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:51.559
They are pitching a fit.

276
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.240
And you know, these are like little brat kids that

277
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:59.559
have been used to getting their way and regardless of

278
00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:03.799
Donald Trump and regardless of you know, what's fair. Uh,

279
00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:07.200
you know, it was shocking that all of a sudden

280
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.519
the Democrats didn't get their way, and especially for something

281
00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:11.960
that they invested so highly in.

282
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:15.279
Right, Yeah, yeah, I mean it was it was refreshing.

283
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:16.639
But I mean they're kind of on a they're on

284
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:19.559
a losing streak now, right Louis Anniversus LA last week

285
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.080
and then or two weeks ago, and then this decision

286
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:25.720
in Virginia, and then you're seeing you're seeing the gerrymandering

287
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:28.039
wars are playing out in states. Now you say, well,

288
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:30.159
in Virginia, they they didn't do it. Why did Why

289
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:32.559
can't Why can't Democrats do it in Virginia? Well again,

290
00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:37.120
my my, my, My statement stands, you have to follow

291
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:39.960
the rules in any given state. So if the Texas

292
00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:43.879
legislature wants to gerrymander their districts, they have to follow

293
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:46.799
Texas law and the Texas Constitution. If the Virginia Legislature

294
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:48.720
wants to germander their districts, they have to follow the

295
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:53.120
Virginia Constitution of Virginia law. So Democrats, of course are

296
00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:56.320
mad because they're seeing their their advantages. I guess slipping

297
00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:59.000
away with this now. Uh, when you when you talk

298
00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:00.879
about fairness and you get into it, you look at

299
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.159
the states. You know, everybody talks about New England, states

300
00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:07.039
that are you know, have significant percentages of Republicans in

301
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:10.879
those states and yet don't have out representation in Congress.

302
00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:12.799
So you know, what's good for the goose is good

303
00:15:12.840 --> 00:15:15.360
for the gander in this and it's just it's just

304
00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.639
the gerryman war. Gerrymandering wars are playing out again. You

305
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:22.519
get these these crazy ideas that you know, race is motivating.

306
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:24.399
It's not race, it's politics. Bill.

307
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:25.440
This is all politicians.

308
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.840
They motivate people how they vote. We talked about this

309
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:32.080
before and again. Going back to Virginia the twenty twenty

310
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:36.000
five election. Overwhelmingly, the whiter the district, the more the

311
00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:39.639
higher percentage of people voted for the African American Republican

312
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:43.799
in Virginia and vice versa. So uh, you know, you

313
00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:46.840
have these these race hustlers out there screaming and yelling

314
00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:50.879
that that African Americans are being disenfranchised. Well, no people

315
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:53.840
vote via a party, they don't vote via race in

316
00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:56.679
this country. That's that's that's a vestige of the past.

317
00:15:56.960 --> 00:15:59.039
Yeah. And the thing that irritates me so much about

318
00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:01.879
this is that it raises something that people have been

319
00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:05.039
trying to shake off of themselves the country, the citizens

320
00:16:05.080 --> 00:16:07.320
of this country, the race card and all this stuff.

321
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:09.799
And of course, with the exposure of the Southern Poverty

322
00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:12.799
Law Center here recently, what they've done in terms of

323
00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:15.720
trying to manufacture a boogeyman, you know, for the sake

324
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:18.720
of their own existence. I mean, these are desperate people

325
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:20.600
looking for reasons to exist.

326
00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:24.320
Right absolutely. And then and this and it's it's performance.

327
00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:26.600
It's performance. You see what happening. And then in the

328
00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:30.440
Tennessee legislature with that individual who's the Tennessee representative, and

329
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:34.240
it's just performance. It's just it's live action role playing

330
00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:36.879
by theater kids. Honestly, I don't mean to be crass

331
00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:40.080
with this, but these are these are pretend pretending they're

332
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:42.320
concocting issues that were none exist.

333
00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:46.039
But how dangerous though. This is what concerns me because it's,

334
00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:48.159
first of all, it's bad enough they're saying something. It's

335
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:51.200
even worse that the mainstream media cannot see it for

336
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:51.840
what it is.

337
00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:55.759
Yeah, platforms it exactly. And that again, I think that

338
00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:57.759
there's an there's an entire as you just said that

339
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:01.399
the SPLC, there's an entire complex industry built up in

340
00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:05.319
propagating this myth that institutional racism continues to exist in

341
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:08.240
the United States and it just doesn't. And look at

342
00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:11.720
the evidence. The best evidence you can muster in Louisiana

343
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:15.599
versus kla it's it's nothing. You can't. You have battalions

344
00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:17.640
of lawyers. And we saw this in an earlier Supreme

345
00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:20.599
Court case Bernovich years ago, which had to do with

346
00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:29.400
prohibit prohibitions on ballot harvesting in Arizona. And the goal

347
00:17:29.559 --> 00:17:33.519
of the other side in this is to is to demonstrate,

348
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:36.759
is to show, is to provide evidence of institutional racism.

349
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:40.119
And quite frankly, you have battalions of lawyers and special

350
00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:44.279
interest groups who were deployed across states in Louisiana versus

351
00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:48.200
KLA in the Bernovich case to try to find instances

352
00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:53.160
of institutional racism to justify the discriminatory tactics they want

353
00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:55.920
to take, you know, to to justify the action under

354
00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:57.880
Section two of the Civil Rights of the Voting Rights Act,

355
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:00.920
for example, and they never can find it. They can

356
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:05.880
never find contemporarious examples of institutional racism. They have to

357
00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:08.559
fall back to the sixties and seventies and say that

358
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:13.839
that still permeates throughout American society in twenty twenty six.

359
00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:17.480
There are again, show me the evidence, because you have

360
00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:20.480
had multiple opportunities. You have you had the best opportunity.

361
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:23.480
You had dozens and dozens of the most expensive lawyers

362
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:26.200
in the world operating in the Louisiana versus Cala, with

363
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:29.920
every single civil rights organization quote unquote civil rights organization

364
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:32.160
out there trying to find it. And the Court said,

365
00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:35.000
I don't see it. There is no intentional there is

366
00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:39.000
no institutional discrimination in these cases. It doesn't exist anymore.

367
00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:42.759
Yeah, but yet you have these supporters of these grifters,

368
00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:46.880
like Sunny Austin, you know, on the view the Supreme

369
00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:50.039
Court decision means my children will have less civil rights

370
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:51.680
than I did, Right.

371
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:54.759
And the question is here's what always is amazing. All

372
00:18:54.759 --> 00:18:56.400
you have to do is ask the follow up question

373
00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:58.279
to that. And you see guys, you see folks on

374
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:01.400
Jennings on Santa and don'll do this is how. You

375
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:04.960
just say. They throw this nonsysical statement my kids will

376
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:08.079
have fewer civil rights and civil rights protections than I do,

377
00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:10.400
and you just say, well, how, and then you say

378
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:13.759
then they're done. They can't. They can't. They can throw

379
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:18.279
out the cheap bumper sticker statement, right, the cheap, the

380
00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:21.160
cheap line that gets the applause. And all you have

381
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:22.759
to do is ask a fall up question, well, how

382
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:25.359
where show me show me the evidence? Where where is

383
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:27.960
that happening? How will you have feer civil rights today

384
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:30.599
than you did last than you do last year? Where

385
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:33.400
is it? And they'll say something like there is no

386
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:36.359
there is no answer. They can't follow up any of

387
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:40.960
their ridiculous statements with actual supporting evidence. They can just

388
00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:43.680
they can fall back to what happened. And again, let

389
00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:46.440
me be clear here, I'm not I'm not saying that

390
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:49.240
what happened in the fifties, sixties and seventies. Maybe even

391
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:51.920
in the eighties was not wasn't legitimate and real and

392
00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:54.920
recognizing that. But in twenty twenty six, where is the

393
00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:56.559
institutional racing exactly?

394
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:00.680
Well, even Sonny's dad said, you are so privilege because

395
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:03.720
you can exercise your full civil rights. He was born

396
00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:07.640
in forty nine and so he was still you know, experiencing,

397
00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:10.599
you know, some some issues with voting and what have you.

398
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:14.240
But her own dad even said that you're so much

399
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:17.119
better off than I am. I mean, and she even

400
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:19.640
said that in her statement, and then she comes up

401
00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:22.599
with this non sequitur of oh, my kids are now

402
00:20:22.640 --> 00:20:24.640
going to have less, Well, how can they have less

403
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:25.519
when you've got more?

404
00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:26.720
Yeah?

405
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:31.680
And how? And it's also devaluing I think the legitimate

406
00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:36.400
efforts and struggle that was made in the civil rights era.

407
00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:39.359
I mean, you're saying, so if things are worse now,

408
00:20:39.400 --> 00:20:41.839
then you're saying everything that all of those people have

409
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:44.680
done for decade, did in the fifties and sixties and

410
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:48.279
seventies was for not now. I don't understand.

411
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:50.799
And the thing is they didn't grift. They didn't grift.

412
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:54.279
They weren't out there grifting. Martin Lutheran King wasn't He

413
00:20:54.400 --> 00:20:57.640
was there for the cause, for the higher level cause.

414
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:01.720
And then after all his hard work included his own assassination.

415
00:21:01.880 --> 00:21:04.359
Then you get these grifters who come in and they

416
00:21:04.400 --> 00:21:10.279
create this in this you know, industrial complex of racism.

417
00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:14.880
Yeah, to propagate it. And again they're there, there's there's evidence,

418
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:19.079
there's legitimate evidence of manufacturing this. You have the quote

419
00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:22.200
unquote one of the premier civil rights organizations in our

420
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:25.039
country with nine hundred million dollars of assets by the.

421
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:27.599
Way off shore thanks exactly.

422
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:31.599
In the Caymans and Bermuda, creating this entire spending millions

423
00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:37.079
of dollars to manufacture and and prop up extremist fringe

424
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.400
groups to ensure their own to ensure that group's own relevancy.

425
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:43.400
So okay, well, if if this is, if this is

426
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:45.960
as pernicious as you you you you assert it is,

427
00:21:46.759 --> 00:21:49.000
why do you have to spend millions of dollars to

428
00:21:49.079 --> 00:21:52.119
propagate these or the these extremist groups.

429
00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:55.759
These it's it's it's obvious. I mean, even Whoopy Goldberg,

430
00:21:56.039 --> 00:21:58.559
this was a great line. She says the Scotis decision

431
00:21:58.680 --> 00:22:02.079
was wrong because whites are still shooting sicking dogs on

432
00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:07.079
black people at the polls, and and you say where.

433
00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:09.680
That's that's always my question is all all you have

434
00:22:09.720 --> 00:22:12.720
to do is ask the never let people get away

435
00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:16.599
with these these these blanket statements. Uh, And you just

436
00:22:16.640 --> 00:22:19.920
say where, how where? Show me show me this? Because literally,

437
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:22.240
and I'll say this because I I I When I

438
00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:26.000
do these, when we litigate cases and things, there are

439
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:31.680
you have battalions of lawyers that are just standing at

440
00:22:31.720 --> 00:22:35.680
the ready to go after institutional racism. And I'm talking

441
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:40.000
the most and oftentimes backed by white shoe law firms.

442
00:22:40.160 --> 00:22:43.599
You have hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions

443
00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:47.640
of dollars of groups. You have d these officers everywhere.

444
00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:50.599
Think about this, If there's racism on a college campus,

445
00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:54.319
you have dozens of people who are in, who are

446
00:22:54.319 --> 00:22:56.720
part of the college, who are their their Their entire

447
00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:00.279
purpose for being employed by the university or college is

448
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:04.000
to root out institutional racism. So if it happens, you

449
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:07.039
have the thunder comes down so quickly and so so

450
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:12.799
where it doesn't exist, it's it's it's it's a complete farce.

451
00:23:12.839 --> 00:23:15.200
At this point, Well, I remember seeing black panthers outside

452
00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:17.759
of voting pole station I think was in Pennsylvania with

453
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:21.880
what with batons, uh, smacking them up against their hands,

454
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:24.119
threatening you know, the white folks as that were going

455
00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:28.480
in to vote. This was course during the Obama election, right, Yeah.

456
00:23:28.519 --> 00:23:30.920
I mean, if anything, you see that that sort of intimidation,

457
00:23:31.079 --> 00:23:33.880
or you see somebody going into you know, going into

458
00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:36.880
churches that trying to intimidate, you know, the guy from

459
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:42.319
Don Lemon, Yeah, trying to intimidate. So I again, it's

460
00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:45.319
just it's time to you know, continue to move forward

461
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:48.599
towards this you know, colorblind society, to this ideal that

462
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:51.920
we strive for. Again, people, there's always going to be prejudice.

463
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:54.680
There's always going to be individual racism. People are always

464
00:23:54.680 --> 00:23:57.039
going to have their biases and their prejudices. People are

465
00:23:57.079 --> 00:23:59.440
always going to be jerks. But to the extent to

466
00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:03.000
which you have institutional racism, it is it is a

467
00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:04.920
vestige of the past. It is a vestige of the

468
00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:08.440
bygone era. What motivates people now to vote in the

469
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:12.440
voting arena? And this is very clear, it's it's not race.

470
00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:14.400
Look at the Look at the guy in Memphis, the

471
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:17.759
white representative, who is going to be who's a Democrat,

472
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:21.160
who is going to be voted out in an he's

473
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:25.680
in an African American voting district, heavily African American voting district.

474
00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:29.119
He continues to get elected because he's a Democrat. He's

475
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:31.200
a white guy. He continues to get elected because he's

476
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:35.079
a Democrat. Abigail Spamberger African Americans in Virginia. Ninety three

477
00:24:35.119 --> 00:24:38.480
percent of African Americans in Virginia voted for Abigail Spamburger

478
00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:39.839
because she was a Democrat.

479
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:44.680
Right exactly, I mean that's it. So it's so going

480
00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:46.960
up against a black candidate black.

481
00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:50.359
Yeah, exactly. If people were motivated by race in Virginia,

482
00:24:50.519 --> 00:24:53.200
show me this, why would the south parts of the

483
00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:57.000
southwestern counties in the southwestern part of Virginia, who still

484
00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:59.240
again fly the Confederate flag and have sons of the

485
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:03.799
Confederacy marches. If they're so motivated by race and how

486
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:06.599
they vote, why did ninety percent of them vote for

487
00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:09.000
of those white people in the southwestern part of Virginia

488
00:25:09.160 --> 00:25:13.000
vote for an African American candidate. And that's a that

489
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:17.680
just shows race does not factor into how people vote.

490
00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:21.000
What factors into them is the candidate, is the positions

491
00:25:21.039 --> 00:25:23.400
of the candidate, is the party affiliation, of the candidate.

492
00:25:23.720 --> 00:25:26.799
That's what that's twenty twenty six. And again this goes

493
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:30.799
back to our whole point. Well, Supreme Court has said, look,

494
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:34.000
partisan political decisions, that's for the states to work out.

495
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:37.279
There's no constitutionally protected role here. You can't discriminate on

496
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:39.680
the basis of race. Fourteenth and fifteen Amendment protect that.

497
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:45.720
But unless there's evidence of intentional discrimination or institutional discrimination,

498
00:25:46.119 --> 00:25:47.960
we're not going to get involved in these cases. This

499
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:49.759
is for the states to fight out themselves. And then

500
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:51.160
you're seeing the fighting out right now.

567
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:37.000
We're talking with doctor George Barnet, director of research in

568
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:40.599
Arizona Christian University's Cultural Research Center and author of.

569
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:43.559
Raising Spiritual Champions. And then, you know, speaking of the

570
00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:45.480
Old Testament, some people who look at the Old Testament

571
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:47.759
heroes like David and to say, you know, here's a

572
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:50.160
guy who kills his body to get his wife, and

573
00:29:51.079 --> 00:29:53.759
but yet God says, here's a man after my own heart.

574
00:29:54.519 --> 00:29:58.039
Commits adultrey has sex with prostitutes. I mean, you know,

575
00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:01.400
kills people, does all kinds of things that we wash.

576
00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:04.880
He's disqualified, he's out of here. And then the Lord

577
00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:09.759
comes back and gracious, graciously shows us no, no, no,

578
00:30:09.799 --> 00:30:11.960
he's a man after my own heart. And it wasn't

579
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.599
because he was rape and pillaging. It was because he

580
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:20.160
was repenting and praying and crying and weeping over his

581
00:30:20.240 --> 00:30:24.319
own sin and recognizing who he was in the presence

582
00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:30.119
of a holy, righteous God and begging God continually, you know,

583
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:34.640
forgive me. One of the things that that so struck me.

584
00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:39.000
There's a passage and I think it's Second Kings maybe

585
00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:43.680
where it talks about David throwing himself on the floor

586
00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:47.079
and and and you know, putting his arms out and

587
00:30:47.160 --> 00:30:51.319
crying in front of God. And you know, I look

588
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:56.119
at that, and I'm so moved by that sincerity. Right

589
00:30:57.119 --> 00:30:59.920
it breaks my heart because I know I'm not there,

590
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:02.440
but I got to get there exactly.

591
00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:06.279
We're talking with doctor George Barne and he's giving us

592
00:31:06.279 --> 00:31:10.960
the latest details on his latest research. You know, George,

593
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:15.799
I'll tell you what touches me as well. And I

594
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:20.400
can relate, you know, to being throwing yourself prostate, you know,

595
00:31:20.440 --> 00:31:24.039
before a holy God. And then declaring against thee and

596
00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:25.319
the only have I sinned?

597
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:28.799
The research and I look at what people think about sin,

598
00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:35.480
it is sad and it's frightening. In fact, we've got

599
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:39.920
two percent of Americans who believe that when they die,

600
00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:42.119
they're going to Hell. And then when I look at

601
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:45.200
the profile of their life that we have through the research,

602
00:31:46.000 --> 00:31:48.119
I'm not God. I can't judge them. I don't want

603
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:50.200
to judge them. God's going to go.

604
00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:53.400
God knows their hearts. That's what I always say, He

605
00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:54.119
knows our heart.

606
00:31:54.359 --> 00:31:56.680
So yeah, but you know, I look at the profile

607
00:31:56.680 --> 00:32:00.400
and I think, if I were to guess, I would

608
00:32:00.440 --> 00:32:03.440
say a lot more than two percent are probably not

609
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:06.559
going to wind up in God's eternal presence. And it's

610
00:32:06.599 --> 00:32:09.759
because they don't have this mindset of who God is.

611
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:12.559
In this particular study, you know, we look at things

612
00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:16.160
like what people believe about God, and we only got

613
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:20.960
about four out of ten Americans who believe in the

614
00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:24.480
God of the Bible, that he exists, that he's holy

615
00:32:24.519 --> 00:32:27.680
and righteous, that he's just and merciful, that he still

616
00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:31.720
rules the world today, but that he still expects us

617
00:32:31.960 --> 00:32:35.079
to live within the boundaries he set for us. That

618
00:32:35.240 --> 00:32:38.720
we cannot save ourselves. We've got a majority of people

619
00:32:38.880 --> 00:32:42.240
in America who think Jesus when he was on earth,

620
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:47.519
they'll buy the notion he was both human and divine.

621
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:50.440
But because of that, they're saying, and therefore he was

622
00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:51.000
a sinner.

623
00:32:51.319 --> 00:32:53.000
It's like, oh, what do you think.

624
00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:57.759
Read the book again. He who was without no sin

625
00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:02.279
bore our sin and so oh gosh, there is so

626
00:33:02.400 --> 00:33:04.640
much that we've got to learn. And you know, here

627
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.119
we are in this Easter seas and I'm thinking, people,

628
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:10.680
this is the time, you know, get motivated. See him

629
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:13.640
on the cross, see him rising from the cross, see

630
00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:17.680
him coming back to his apostles and followers and giving

631
00:33:17.720 --> 00:33:20.440
them those final words, you know, one of which is

632
00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:22.960
go make disciples, which means you've got to be the

633
00:33:22.960 --> 00:33:25.799
first one. You've got to be a disciple before you

634
00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:28.480
can make other people into disciples through the Holy Spirit.

635
00:33:29.200 --> 00:33:32.720
And so, man, what a great time of year. This is.

636
00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:35.680
Well, this is what's happenings, And this is what I appreciate.

637
00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:39.279
I appreciate about the liturgy that God has established because

638
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:42.160
it comes up at this point, whether it's Passover, the

639
00:33:42.200 --> 00:33:44.759
Easter season, or like some of us like to refer

640
00:33:44.839 --> 00:33:49.640
to because sometimes the Eastern reference is something pagan, but

641
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:53.119
we you know, we'll call it Resurrection Day. But again

642
00:33:53.240 --> 00:33:57.359
it's a reminder of just how significant this is and

643
00:33:57.400 --> 00:34:00.039
a time that where God is saying, look at you.

644
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:00.160
Know.

645
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:03.359
It's not over, George. You know I'm still cheering you on.

646
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:06.240
I still guess what I want to commune with you,

647
00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:09.639
the way I intended to commune with you when I

648
00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:14.159
first created everything and said this is very good.

649
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:17.039
How often do we talk about America as the land

650
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:21.199
of opportunity? Yeah, you know, the greatest opportunity of all

651
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:23.639
is to be reconciled with our Father in heaven.

652
00:34:23.920 --> 00:34:24.239
Amen.

653
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:27.679
And realizing that I live in a country where I

654
00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:30.239
can do that, I can do it freely, I can

655
00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:33.559
do it in the open. I can talk to people

656
00:34:33.599 --> 00:34:36.480
about that. I should talk to people about that. You

657
00:34:36.519 --> 00:34:40.079
know what a great thing that is. And you know so,

658
00:34:40.280 --> 00:34:42.880
I mean, folks, when you go to church this Sunday

659
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:46.800
or wherever you go to worship God, or today and tomorrow,

660
00:34:46.840 --> 00:34:49.880
when you worship Him privately and personally, and you should

661
00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:53.079
be don't wait for church services. You know, thank Him

662
00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:57.239
for that freedom, Thank him for that opportunity. It's unbelievable

663
00:34:57.239 --> 00:34:59.960
when I travel around the world and see so much,

664
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:05.000
many people in spiritual bondage, political bondage, economic bondage. And

665
00:35:05.039 --> 00:35:09.800
then I come back here is this place perfect? Now? Wow,

666
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:12.880
what a great place it is to be in spite

667
00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:13.599
of its faults.

668
00:35:14.119 --> 00:35:17.039
Well, yes, exactly. I mean, it is such a gift

669
00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:19.719
that God has given us. You know, there's a new

670
00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:23.079
movie that's coming out, George, And by the time people

671
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:26.719
will see this interview, it will have been out because

672
00:35:26.760 --> 00:35:32.800
it comes out on Friday, April third, And it's the

673
00:35:32.840 --> 00:35:36.320
story of George Whitfield and Benjamin Franklin, the Great Awakening,

674
00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:43.159
the initial great Awakening that ignited, you know, the American Revolution.

675
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:47.840
It is a phenomenal story put together by the folks

676
00:35:48.039 --> 00:35:51.000
Joshua ank who's become a friend over the years involved

677
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:54.719
with SIT and Sound. They've got two grand facilities, one

678
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:57.320
in Pennsylvania and one in Branson, Missouri, where they do

679
00:35:57.400 --> 00:36:03.400
these theatrical biblic reenactments and stories that are just beautiful.

680
00:36:03.719 --> 00:36:06.719
And this is the second movie that they ventured into

681
00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:12.159
and it's all about and I didn't realize the total

682
00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:17.039
story of Benjamin Franklin and Whitfield and that they were

683
00:36:17.079 --> 00:36:20.719
business partners and how they work together. And as Josh

684
00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:23.840
and I were talking, I immediately, you know, flashed back

685
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:27.639
to because here, you know, Benjamin Franklin was a publisher, right,

686
00:36:28.119 --> 00:36:31.239
he was a printer. He's printing, he's got a printing

687
00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:35.880
press going on there in Pennsylvania, and he promotes Whitfield

688
00:36:36.280 --> 00:36:40.000
because it's good for business, right, And I flashed to

689
00:36:40.719 --> 00:36:44.679
Randolph Hearst and Billy Graham, because that's what Randolph first

690
00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:49.639
did with Billy Graham. I did puff Graham, yes, right, yeah, yeah.

691
00:36:49.519 --> 00:36:51.840
That was the expression to use puff Graham. And he

692
00:36:51.920 --> 00:36:54.480
sent that out to all his editors. Yeah, that was great.

693
00:36:55.440 --> 00:36:56.880
And I don't know if people have been to the

694
00:36:56.880 --> 00:36:59.480
site and sound stuff. I've actually flown back to Pennsylvania

695
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:03.079
three times just to see their live plays. They're phenomenal.

696
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:06.400
They're great. I love them. And yeah, so I'm excited.

697
00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:08.480
I didn't know about this, So I'm excited to hear

698
00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:08.960
about this.

699
00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:11.599
Well good, Well you'll enjoy it. It will bless you.

700
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:17.559
The storyline and Whitfield's commitment, I mean, his passion to

701
00:37:17.760 --> 00:37:20.199
pursue Christ Georgia, like you and I were talking about.

702
00:37:20.239 --> 00:37:23.320
You know, we get here and we try and you

703
00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:24.920
know The thing is, we do it in our own

704
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:28.800
human you know power, trying to you know, create our

705
00:37:28.840 --> 00:37:33.159
own babbel, you know power of babbel and trying to

706
00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:35.920
reach up to the heavens. And it's so silly. And

707
00:37:36.320 --> 00:37:38.440
this is why we read whenever we do things like

708
00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:41.880
that that God laughs. But you know, nonetheless, you know

709
00:37:41.880 --> 00:37:44.880
we're knuckleheads. He still loves us in spite of that.

710
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:48.400
And Whitfield does this and it's brought out in the

711
00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:51.519
movie that he doesn't eat for forty days. He's a mess.

712
00:37:51.519 --> 00:37:53.840
He doesn't come out of his room. You know, they finally,

713
00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:56.400
you know, they break into his room and get him

714
00:37:56.400 --> 00:37:58.239
out of there, and they're thinking, oh God, this place

715
00:37:58.280 --> 00:38:02.760
smells terrible, awful. But it was his own human I mean,

716
00:38:02.800 --> 00:38:06.400
he almost died, died in the process, but you know,

717
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:11.159
God loved him through it and he survived. And here

718
00:38:11.199 --> 00:38:14.320
he goes. I mean he really he really got serious

719
00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:18.000
with God, and God elevated his faith and revealed things

720
00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:21.039
to him. It was so important that he carried out.

721
00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:23.800
And here he is coming to the Americas and saying

722
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:26.440
wake up, O sleep or wake up right.

723
00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:30.440
And you know, Whitfield works so closely with John Wesley,

724
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:33.119
who's one of my heroes of the faith. And so

725
00:38:33.239 --> 00:38:36.679
when I read their stories of what they did, and

726
00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:39.239
you know, today we would look at what they what

727
00:38:39.280 --> 00:38:42.199
they went through just to speak the gospel, preach the

728
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:45.559
gospel to people, and we think, wow, that's pretty extreme.

729
00:38:46.039 --> 00:38:49.039
It's like, No, that's what we're all supposed to be doing.

730
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:52.679
I mean, that's the life. That's what it's about. And

731
00:38:53.239 --> 00:38:54.880
you know, so much of it goes back to what

732
00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:56.760
do you think your purpose on life is?

733
00:38:57.280 --> 00:38:57.480
Right?

734
00:38:57.559 --> 00:39:00.000
You know, it's not just to have all the good

735
00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:04.360
I mean, it's really to promote Christ. It's to get

736
00:39:04.400 --> 00:39:09.039
other people to live that life to where you're wedded

737
00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:11.599
to Jesus. Yeah, so this is going to be exciting.

738
00:39:11.639 --> 00:39:13.239
I'm looking around with well, you know when you think

739
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:15.719
about that, George, you know we do that naturally anyway,

740
00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:18.719
Right if we saw a ballgame where if there's a movie,

741
00:39:18.760 --> 00:39:20.679
you know, we talk about, Hey, I need to share

742
00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:25.960
this with you. Why wouldn't you share something as significant

743

00:39:29.480 --> 00:39:32.800

821
00:43:38.840 --> 00:43:41.719
We're talking with doctor George Warnett, director of researching Arizona

822
00:43:41.760 --> 00:43:46.400
Christian University's Cultural Research Center, author of Raising Spiritual Champions.

823
00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:49.280
If you're going to have the find that these people

824
00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:53.000
outside the church coming to Chris having that deeper relationship.

825
00:43:53.320 --> 00:43:57.639
We put on a lot of great revival events. But

826
00:43:57.800 --> 00:44:02.880
the problem is we need within the church the body

827
00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:06.280
of believers first, so that when people come to us

828
00:44:06.280 --> 00:44:09.199
and they say, Wow, this is exciting, this is interesting.

829
00:44:09.440 --> 00:44:10.679
I don't know what to make of it. What do

830
00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:13.599
I do? They've got to be able to look at

831
00:44:13.679 --> 00:44:18.360
us and see us model the Jesus life. Right and

832
00:44:18.519 --> 00:44:20.880
part of the issue that we've got in the church

833
00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:23.760
right now, where when I look at all this research

834
00:44:23.800 --> 00:44:26.679
and look at the church to people alone, I just

835
00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:29.679
if I just study them, I see that we're not

836
00:44:29.760 --> 00:44:33.119
believing in sin. We're not believing there's much impact of

837
00:44:33.159 --> 00:44:36.599
sin on our lives. Where we're thinking. And this is

838
00:44:36.639 --> 00:44:38.679
tens of millions of people who are regularly going to

839
00:44:38.760 --> 00:44:42.559
Christian churches saying Jesus isn't the only way, Christianity isn't

840
00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:46.360
the only real true faith. You know, things like this,

841
00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:49.280
and I'm saying, oh my gosh, Lord, don't let the

842
00:44:49.320 --> 00:44:52.800
mission fuel come into the church. We're not ready for it. Z.

843
00:44:53.119 --> 00:44:55.400
You know, it'll be like nine to eleven again, like

844
00:44:55.440 --> 00:44:58.679
you mentioned earlier, nine to eleven came the churches. You know,

845
00:44:58.760 --> 00:45:01.719
the doors were swung open, and it was only it

846
00:45:01.760 --> 00:45:04.239
was it was about a three week experience, George.

847
00:45:04.360 --> 00:45:08.480
Yeah, well yeah, four, five, six weeks, depending on the

848
00:45:08.519 --> 00:45:11.320
portion of the country with types of churches. There were

849
00:45:11.320 --> 00:45:13.920
a lot of different variables we saw. Okay, it can

850
00:45:14.000 --> 00:45:17.679
last a little bit longer in these environments, but it

851
00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:22.079
never lasts permanently. And I think it's because we need

852
00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:26.679
this renewal taking place in the church so that revival

853
00:45:26.760 --> 00:45:30.039
can stick. And again I'm now the theologians are going to

854
00:45:30.119 --> 00:45:31.559
jump on me and say, oh, you don't trust the

855
00:45:31.599 --> 00:45:34.400
Holy Spirit. I do trust the Holy Spirit. I do

856
00:45:34.440 --> 00:45:37.599
trust God. God knows what he's doing. My problem is,

857
00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:40.960
you know, he's using fallible people to do some of

858
00:45:41.000 --> 00:45:43.960
his work here. And we've got to get our act together.

859
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:48.079
We've got to show now we've been revived, you know exactly,

860
00:45:48.079 --> 00:45:49.519
that's what that renewal is.

861
00:45:49.880 --> 00:45:53.679
Well, and the Bible says we could look at the fruit, right,

862
00:45:53.800 --> 00:45:55.760
you look at the tree, the fruit of the tree,

863
00:45:56.199 --> 00:46:00.000
and it is it? Is it really indicating true revival?

864
00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:04.199
Because when you look I always go to, uh, you

865
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:07.400
know what happened in Nineva Geordan, you know, and how

866
00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:11.800
critical leadership was. If the king himself I believe, had

867
00:46:11.840 --> 00:46:14.400
not led the way. Yes, the people kind of started

868
00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:15.440
to get it and there was a little bit of

869
00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:18.719
an organic grounds. Well, but what really tipped the tables

870
00:46:18.760 --> 00:46:21.239
when the king got it and he's tearing his clothes

871
00:46:21.440 --> 00:46:25.440
and he's saying, hey, sack cloth for everybody, including the animals. Right,

872
00:46:26.079 --> 00:46:29.440
there's something a pattern here, a model, and that this

873
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:31.440
is not I mean, although right, now you can look

874
00:46:31.440 --> 00:46:35.239
at America and say, well, we have a president in

875
00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:40.760
the White House who talks about God, who exemplifies some

876
00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:46.320
godly principles. Again understanding he's a humanoid like the rest

877
00:46:46.320 --> 00:46:50.639
of us. But I'm just kind of in anticipation. If

878
00:46:50.679 --> 00:46:53.719
I can say this and you're in trouble, I might

879
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:55.320
as well get in trouble. We'll be on the same

880
00:46:55.320 --> 00:46:55.840
boat again.

881
00:46:56.320 --> 00:46:57.079
Come on board.

882
00:46:57.119 --> 00:46:59.079
But as yeah, I'm happy to do it, you know,

883
00:46:59.239 --> 00:47:01.360
because I'm I'm used to it, and I believe this

884
00:47:01.400 --> 00:47:04.519
is what God has brought me into this and given

885
00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:07.159
me this platform to do. But you have to speak

886
00:47:07.199 --> 00:47:10.199
truth to the matter. And my prayer is is that

887
00:47:10.360 --> 00:47:14.199
our leaders would see the revival and react to it,

888
00:47:14.480 --> 00:47:17.639
and rent their clothes and prostate themselves before a holy

889
00:47:17.719 --> 00:47:22.320
God and really ignite, you know, another great awakening. As

890
00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:25.440
Charles Finney said, you know, a revival happens when it's

891
00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:28.800
most needed. And as you cited these blemishes that are

892
00:47:28.840 --> 00:47:32.400
about America right now, I think we pretty much need

893
00:47:32.440 --> 00:47:33.239
it well.

894
00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:35.639
And all right, so if you're trying to get in trouble,

895
00:47:35.679 --> 00:47:36.800
I'm going to one up you here.

896
00:47:38.320 --> 00:47:40.519
I'm gonna take that trouble and I'm gonna add to it.

897
00:47:40.639 --> 00:47:42.400
Okay, you're gonna have multiply it, buddy.

898
00:47:42.400 --> 00:47:44.199
Here's Bill and George one more time.

899
00:47:44.280 --> 00:47:48.840
Okay, Yeah, this man knows nothing. So you know, recently,

900
00:47:48.960 --> 00:47:52.880
Franklin Graham was good enough to send a note to

901
00:47:53.519 --> 00:47:56.440
President Trump saying, you know, I heard you talking about

902
00:47:56.440 --> 00:47:59.159
these things, and you said, you're not sure if you're

903
00:47:59.159 --> 00:48:01.239
going to get into heavy And let me tell you,

904
00:48:01.320 --> 00:48:05.639
if you just trust Jesus, you know, confess your sins

905
00:48:05.639 --> 00:48:08.760
and trust Jesus, you're gonna be fine, I promise you.

906
00:48:09.079 --> 00:48:11.039
And you know he said more than that, But those

907
00:48:11.079 --> 00:48:14.880
were some things, especially in there, right, and I read that.

908
00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:19.159
I love Franklin, and it's like, praise God that Franklin's

909
00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:21.679
got the boldness to do that. And I mean, he

910
00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:25.840
did it. I didn't, so kudos to him. But I'm

911
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:29.280
just worried that nowhere in that message did it say

912
00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:33.920
anything about repentance. And so I'm thinking, Okay, yes, we

913
00:48:34.000 --> 00:48:38.320
want people to believe in Jesus and to trust him,

914
00:48:38.760 --> 00:48:43.559
but part of that proof that you're making that commitment

915
00:48:44.119 --> 00:48:46.559
is that you've said, okay, and the reason I have

916
00:48:46.639 --> 00:48:50.719
to trust Jesus is I'm a sinner and so I

917
00:48:50.760 --> 00:48:53.599
don't want to keep sinning. I've got to change my

918
00:48:53.719 --> 00:48:57.159
behavior so that I don't keep sinning. That's what repentance is.

919
00:48:57.599 --> 00:49:01.119
I'm gonna I love Jesus, I'm going to trust him

920
00:49:01.480 --> 00:49:04.320
and to prove it, I'm going to change my life.

921
00:49:05.079 --> 00:49:07.039
I just wish some of that had been in that

922
00:49:07.079 --> 00:49:07.920
message as well.

923
00:49:08.679 --> 00:49:12.800
See, And I think what your studies indicate here is

924
00:49:12.840 --> 00:49:16.360
that the culture doesn't realize how sick it is. It

925
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:20.000
is accommodated sin in such a way. You know, we

926
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:23.760
think of it in terms of a venial consequence, if

927
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:26.320
we can put it back in Catholic terms, but not

928
00:49:26.400 --> 00:49:29.960
realizing that any sin offends God, a holy God. And

929
00:49:30.039 --> 00:49:33.280
when we get to that position, God willing and by

930
00:49:33.320 --> 00:49:37.480
the grace of the Holy Spirit, help the world, because

931
00:49:37.519 --> 00:49:41.199
there would be an ignition of repentance and revival that

932
00:49:41.239 --> 00:49:44.039
would take place that would make all the other revivals

933
00:49:44.320 --> 00:49:46.800
pale and significance. If I might say, I.

934
00:49:46.760 --> 00:49:48.840
Think a great test for each of us to go

935
00:49:48.920 --> 00:49:56.320
through is to recognize that America, spiritually speaking, has become

936
00:49:56.360 --> 00:50:00.480
comfortable with sin. Yeah, And so a great test each

937
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:02.760
of us is to sit down in a time of

938
00:50:02.800 --> 00:50:07.360
reflection and meditation before God, ask the Holy Spirit to

939
00:50:07.559 --> 00:50:11.360
enlighten each of us. Enlighten me, you know, from myself,

940
00:50:11.400 --> 00:50:13.639
forget the rest of the world. They've got their problems. Absolutely,

941
00:50:13.719 --> 00:50:15.760
I'll pray for them. I'll help them, Like man, I

942
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:19.280
got to deal with me and Holy Spirit, please help

943
00:50:19.320 --> 00:50:22.519
me to see what sins am I comfortable with one?

944
00:50:22.559 --> 00:50:25.079
Am I letting go and say well, yeah, that's not

945
00:50:25.119 --> 00:50:27.719
as bad as this sin over here. And I'm never

946
00:50:27.800 --> 00:50:30.079
going to do that. Yeah, but I'm going to turn

947
00:50:30.119 --> 00:50:32.159
a blind eye to this. I'm not going to talk

948
00:50:32.199 --> 00:50:34.679
to those people. I'm going to make them feel good

949
00:50:34.679 --> 00:50:37.920
about the you know, what are the sins that I

950
00:50:37.960 --> 00:50:41.480
am letting go of and saying, yeah, it's not worth

951
00:50:41.519 --> 00:50:45.199
fighting over. We have this mentality and I use this

952
00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:48.440
phrase a lot. You got to choose your battles. But

953
00:50:48.840 --> 00:50:51.360
we've got to be careful when we're talking about sin,

954
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:54.079
that we don't see sin that way, that there are

955
00:50:54.159 --> 00:50:58.280
some sin battles that aren't worth fighting frankly, because it

956
00:50:58.360 --> 00:51:02.639
offends God, that builds a wall of separation between us

957
00:51:02.960 --> 00:51:08.480
and that Holy God. Exactly every sin is worth fighting over, exactly.

958
00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:08.920
You know.

959
00:51:09.039 --> 00:51:13.159
It reminds me this season I have been highly engaged

960
00:51:13.199 --> 00:51:15.880
with the Hollow app, you know, one of the fastest

961
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:19.719
growing you know, prayer apps, which which says a tremendous

962
00:51:19.719 --> 00:51:23.239
story the background of Alex Jones, not the Alex Jones

963
00:51:23.280 --> 00:51:27.880
the political commentator, but Alex Jones, this young man who

964
00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:31.280
was in pursuit of God and you know, kind of

965
00:51:31.280 --> 00:51:34.000
a similar story to mine, that God and his grace

966
00:51:34.320 --> 00:51:37.679
mercy allowed us to you know, venture out and discover

967
00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:41.800
other religions in search of God and philosophies and everything.

968
00:51:42.119 --> 00:51:48.119
And his background, he had engagement and meditations with other

969
00:51:48.880 --> 00:51:55.320
philosophies and that, and when he looked at Christianity and Catholicism,

970
00:51:55.360 --> 00:51:58.800
he goes, we don't have that, and so he created

971
00:51:58.840 --> 00:52:00.840
the Hollow app. And of course family said, what are

972
00:52:00.840 --> 00:52:04.599
your nuts? You know, this isn't gonna work. But anyways, said,

973
00:52:04.679 --> 00:52:08.159
just a tremendous success story. But one of the recurring

974
00:52:08.239 --> 00:52:14.519
themes of this Lenten season has been God empty me,

975
00:52:15.360 --> 00:52:17.599
God film me, God use me. God empty me. God

976
00:52:17.599 --> 00:52:19.800
filmed me. God use me. God empty me. God film me,

977
00:52:19.840 --> 00:52:21.639
God use me. Kind of what you're saying is that

978
00:52:21.920 --> 00:52:25.440
you've got to pour yourself out. And in pouring yourself out,

979
00:52:25.480 --> 00:52:29.360
and emptying yourself. Then it's it's taking all that muck

980
00:52:29.400 --> 00:52:32.079
and mired things that we don't know, those hidden sins.

981
00:52:32.119 --> 00:52:34.639
The Bible talks about these things that we think are

982
00:52:34.639 --> 00:52:37.559
of no consequence. But you're asking the Holy Spirit come in,

983
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:40.719
empty me, purify me, get it all out, and then

984
00:52:40.840 --> 00:52:43.119
fill me with those things that are right, noble and

985
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:44.320
good and holy.

986
00:52:44.440 --> 00:52:48.800
Right, that's a beautiful thing. And now again, not to

987
00:52:48.840 --> 00:52:51.599
be a hammer, you know, seeing everything as a nail.

988
00:52:51.719 --> 00:52:54.280
But you know, I come back to the research and

989
00:52:54.320 --> 00:52:56.239
when you say that, one of the things that pops

990
00:52:56.239 --> 00:53:00.199
into my mind is the fact that most Americans don't

991
00:53:00.199 --> 00:53:03.199
believe the Holy Spirit is real. We think the Holy

992
00:53:03.280 --> 00:53:08.480
Spirit is a symbol of God's power or presence or purity,

993
00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:11.960
but not a living entity that can affect our lives.

994
00:53:12.920 --> 00:53:16.679
And so that's an important first hurdle to get over,

995
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:19.960
is that we allow the third person of the Trinity,

996
00:53:20.119 --> 00:53:23.559
that portion of the God had to be real to

997
00:53:23.679 --> 00:53:28.880
us and to affect our lives in a very significant way.

998
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:32.599
When we cut God off from our lives by saying

999
00:53:32.679 --> 00:53:36.199
that I don't believe that party exists, that's a serious

1000
00:53:36.239 --> 00:53:37.800
offense against God right.

1001
00:53:37.679 --> 00:53:41.440
There, exactly. Yeah, so it's something that God says is

1002
00:53:41.480 --> 00:53:44.119
the most worst thing you could do of all the sins,

1003
00:53:44.360 --> 00:53:45.559
is blesspheing.

1004
00:53:45.039 --> 00:53:46.320
The Holy the Spirit.

1005
00:53:46.440 --> 00:53:48.840
Yeah right, you got it exactly. When you think about

1006
00:53:48.880 --> 00:53:50.760
the Holy Spirit, I always say, you know, we have

1007
00:53:50.840 --> 00:53:54.239
to return to our origins, to the beginnings and open

1008
00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:57.440
up in Genesis one and you see the Triune God,

1009
00:53:57.480 --> 00:54:01.199
the Holy Spirit himself hovering over the void and the chaos,

1010
00:54:01.320 --> 00:54:05.000
right yeah, yeah, and you think you think his job's

1011
00:54:05.039 --> 00:54:06.920
done now and that he doesn't exist.

1012
00:54:07.639 --> 00:54:10.280
Yeah. And one of the great things about it is

1013
00:54:10.320 --> 00:54:12.639
if you've got the eye for it, you can see

1014
00:54:12.639 --> 00:54:17.760
the Holy Spirit all through every every chapter, every every

1015
00:54:17.800 --> 00:54:20.920
book in the Bible. And you know, I mean, like

1016
00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:23.599
you say, you see it in Genesis one, and you

1017
00:54:23.719 --> 00:54:27.119
go all the way through to Revelation at Man, the

1018
00:54:27.159 --> 00:54:28.760
Spirit's having a home coming there.

1019
00:54:30.519 --> 00:54:34.519
Yeah. Well, uh, doctor George is always thank you so

1020
00:54:34.639 --> 00:54:35.360
much for coming on.

1021
00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:36.119
Uh.

1022
00:54:36.599 --> 00:54:41.039
You know, we're united in prayer that we would all,

1023
00:54:42.039 --> 00:54:46.079
starting with us, become very serious about sin and that

1024
00:54:47.119 --> 00:54:49.679
and this is a personal thing that we would do

1025
00:54:49.840 --> 00:54:53.719
with God, and that God would search our hearts and

1026
00:54:54.079 --> 00:54:57.239
because you know, whatever you want to get there, if

1027
00:54:57.280 --> 00:55:00.519
it's you know, repentance, revival. It's God's will to be done,

1028
00:55:01.039 --> 00:55:03.280
and that's what we want manifest, is God's will to

1029
00:55:03.320 --> 00:55:06.360
be done, and that may we be agents of God's

1030
00:55:06.360 --> 00:55:08.320
will right to promote it to others.

1031
00:55:08.440 --> 00:55:11.760
Yeah. I've often told people when they say, you know,

1032
00:55:11.840 --> 00:55:13.559
do you have a business card, and they say, well,

1033
00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:18.199
here's the one from the organization, but my personal business cards.

1034
00:55:18.239 --> 00:55:21.480
As George Barne, Agent of Transformation, I love you because

1035
00:55:21.519 --> 00:55:23.960

1063
00:56:58.079 --> 00:57:03.320
Getting America back on track. Bill Martinez Live, Hey, good

1064
00:57:03.360 --> 00:57:05.280
morning America. Six minutes after the top of the hour.

1065
00:57:05.360 --> 00:57:09.159
Right now, I'm Bill Martinez. He is Kenneth Abramowitz. Mister Cana,

1066
00:57:09.159 --> 00:57:09.679
how are we doing?

1067
00:57:10.320 --> 00:57:11.239
Great? Great? Great?

1068
00:57:11.280 --> 00:57:14.599
Thank you always going to be connecting with you. Let's

1069
00:57:14.599 --> 00:57:18.119
talk the latest, that crazy little place that's causing all

1070
00:57:18.199 --> 00:57:21.800
kinds of attension. You know, you run, you know, to

1071
00:57:21.880 --> 00:57:25.360
straight or not to straight, to bomb or not to bomb.

1072
00:57:26.199 --> 00:57:28.400
You know, we're at a bit of a bit of

1073
00:57:28.440 --> 00:57:28.960
an impasse.

1074
00:57:29.039 --> 00:57:29.639
What say you?

1075
00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:36.719
Yeah, well, yes, we're to ask. By definition, we're basically

1076
00:57:36.920 --> 00:57:40.960
playing a game of chicken between America and a rad

1077
00:57:41.679 --> 00:57:45.519
and both in this race, both automobiles are going roughly

1078
00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:49.119
one hundred dollars an hour, and the question is who's

1079
00:57:49.159 --> 00:57:51.920
going to turn left or right or hit.

1080
00:57:53.440 --> 00:57:56.400
Well. And it's always tough when you're in a game

1081
00:57:56.400 --> 00:57:59.039
of chicken and you're and the other person in the

1082
00:57:59.079 --> 00:58:04.639
car is death cultis so uh? You know uh, and

1083
00:58:04.639 --> 00:58:07.400
and I and I and I understand, I have no

1084
00:58:07.480 --> 00:58:10.800
delusion to think that whether it's Donald Trump or Marco

1085
00:58:10.880 --> 00:58:15.840
Rubio or anybody else, UH is under estimating. Uh, you know,

1086
00:58:15.920 --> 00:58:19.079
the craziness. And and Trump is giving them every potential,

1087
00:58:19.199 --> 00:58:23.760
every way to work around this. But you know they're fixed.

1088
00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:26.519
They're fixed on their end game. And I don't see

1089
00:58:26.639 --> 00:58:30.039
any movement whatsoever, do you no?

1090
00:58:30.840 --> 00:58:35.559
And which is typical of death cults. There isn't death cults.

1091
00:58:35.559 --> 00:58:39.199
They're called death cults. It's because they die, they they

1092
00:58:39.199 --> 00:58:43.719
go down with the shipw In relatively recent history, World

1093
00:58:43.719 --> 00:58:47.880
War Two, we saw the Nazi death cult die, in

1094
00:58:47.920 --> 00:58:53.280
the Japanese Imperial Army death cult die. Now. Aiding the

1095
00:58:53.360 --> 00:58:58.719
Japanese death were two atomic bombs in Nagasaki and Hiroshima,

1096
00:58:59.039 --> 00:59:05.880
which finally can convince them to surrender. And Germany we

1097
00:59:06.079 --> 00:59:10.039
just we the Allies in Russia just kept killing the

1098
00:59:10.239 --> 00:59:14.719
leadership until Hitler killed himself and then that death cult died.

1099
00:59:15.239 --> 00:59:18.159
More recently, we've had the ISIS and al Qaeda death

1100
00:59:18.199 --> 00:59:21.360
cults aft in the in the wake of nine to eleven.

1101
00:59:21.880 --> 00:59:27.719
So now now we have another death cult. And one

1102
00:59:27.840 --> 00:59:31.639
irony here is as President Trump tries to make it

1103
00:59:31.760 --> 00:59:36.320
easier for them by lowering the bar, it actually decreases

1104
00:59:36.400 --> 00:59:38.760
the chances that they'll come to the table.

1105
00:59:39.280 --> 00:59:41.760
I'm glad you're saying that because that's my, you know,

1106
00:59:41.840 --> 00:59:44.639
my gut reaction as well, because what do you have

1107
00:59:44.719 --> 00:59:46.679
to do is continue to squeeze, just like you did

1108
00:59:46.679 --> 00:59:51.639
in Japan, to where the forces that want to continue

1109
00:59:51.679 --> 00:59:55.320
the war are deafened by those where there's enough reason

1110
00:59:55.360 --> 00:59:57.320
that rains and said, look, we've lost you know, we

1111
00:59:57.400 --> 01:00:00.079
got to pack it up. And fold it and and

1112
01:00:00.880 --> 01:00:04.559
reluctantly the core of that death cult, you know, fades

1113
01:00:04.599 --> 01:00:09.559
and goes to irrelevance. But they don't necessarily die altogether,

1114
01:00:09.639 --> 01:00:09.960
do they.

1115
01:00:11.360 --> 01:00:14.639
Well, notice, going back to World War Two, Japan did

1116
01:00:14.639 --> 01:00:19.079
not summer, did not surrender after one nuclear bomb.

1117
01:00:19.400 --> 01:00:21.280
No, yeah, it took two.

1118
01:00:22.360 --> 01:00:27.519
And if we were talking beforehand, just pretend we would

1119
01:00:27.559 --> 01:00:30.760
have both forecasted that on one nuclear weapon and that's it,

1120
01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:34.920
then they'll surrender. No, I think if I remember history correctly,

1121
01:00:34.920 --> 01:00:40.559
a couple of weeks so so, yes, So we have

1122
01:00:40.599 --> 01:00:43.639
to stay tough, tough, tough, and we shouldn't lower the bar.

1123
01:00:44.079 --> 01:00:46.639
We should say, here's the fifteen things that we want

1124
01:00:47.079 --> 01:00:50.000
around We'll say here's the fifteen things that we want,

1125
01:00:50.599 --> 01:00:53.159
and then we should say, as President Trump has said,

1126
01:00:53.639 --> 01:00:56.519
but we blockaded the straight of her moves. You're not

1127
01:00:56.559 --> 01:01:00.280
selling any oil, which is most of your income, and

1128
01:01:00.320 --> 01:01:02.400
you're going to run out of money, food, water, and

1129
01:01:02.440 --> 01:01:06.039
everything else and have a nice day.

1130
01:01:06.239 --> 01:01:09.840
And when does their infrastructure, their oil infrastructure collapse, because

1131
01:01:10.000 --> 01:01:11.880
we've been told, you know, for the last week and

1132
01:01:11.920 --> 01:01:13.920
a half any day now.

1133
01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:18.400
Yes, yes, so am I told through the internet and

1134
01:01:19.079 --> 01:01:22.679
various websites that in about two weeks or so. Some

1135
01:01:22.719 --> 01:01:24.840
people say three weeks, some say one week, but let's

1136
01:01:24.840 --> 01:01:28.760
just say two weeks, they fill up all their storage area.

1137
01:01:29.199 --> 01:01:31.360
And so therefore they're going to have to shut down

1138
01:01:31.400 --> 01:01:34.840
their wells. And when you shut down your well, you

1139
01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:38.679
destroy the pressure within the well and you basically destroy

1140
01:01:38.760 --> 01:01:41.880
the well and you have to drill another well another

1141
01:01:42.000 --> 01:01:46.159
day somewhere near nearby. So yes, they're going to end

1142
01:01:46.239 --> 01:01:50.079
up ruining their oil industry. And bear in mind that

1143
01:01:50.199 --> 01:01:55.559
the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp. Owns approximately fifty percent of

1144
01:01:55.639 --> 01:01:59.039
the GDP of Iran. They're like a business, They're the

1145
01:01:59.079 --> 01:02:02.800
biggest business is in Iran. So they'll be destroying their

1146
01:02:02.800 --> 01:02:07.639
own business. Some business people within the RGC are going

1147
01:02:07.719 --> 01:02:10.239
to say, I don't want to destroy my own business,

1148
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:12.920
and other people will say, but we're at death count

1149
01:02:13.159 --> 01:02:17.400
and America has to surrender. So that's why we're in

1150
01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:20.079
a game of chicken. And just to finish the point,

1151
01:02:20.239 --> 01:02:25.480
I think President if Trump, President Trump run with us today,

1152
01:02:25.679 --> 01:02:30.280
he would say, look, i'm blockading the straight They're not

1153
01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:33.840
getting eighty or ninety percent of their income. They're going

1154
01:02:33.880 --> 01:02:37.559
to come to me eventually. I have time and have

1155
01:02:37.599 --> 01:02:41.599
a good day. Yeah, but what do you do carry

1156
01:02:41.679 --> 01:02:43.480
negotiating position?

1157
01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:46.079
Well, I like it to a degree. But and I'm

1158
01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:50.079
sure Trump has thought about this, I mean, death culture crazy.

1159
01:02:50.800 --> 01:02:54.039
And what happens if they say, hey, our tanks are full,

1160
01:02:54.199 --> 01:02:57.280
so we're just going to start releasing oil into the strait.

1161
01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:08.159
Yeah sure, yeah, and we'll pollute our own c and well, yeah,

1162
01:03:08.159 --> 01:03:12.840
that's right. They can do anything that's unpredictable. But I

1163
01:03:12.840 --> 01:03:16.559
think now, now bear in mind, each side thinks each

1164
01:03:16.559 --> 01:03:20.360
other is going to surrender. So Trump, President Trump would say, oh,

1165
01:03:20.599 --> 01:03:22.559
they're going to surrender. I don't know if it's in

1166
01:03:22.599 --> 01:03:25.079
one month, two month, three months. And by the way,

1167
01:03:25.119 --> 01:03:28.559
the midterms coming up in November. They can surrender before

1168
01:03:28.639 --> 01:03:32.239
after the midterm, whatever suits them. And Iran is saying,

1169
01:03:32.320 --> 01:03:35.400
oh no, no, President Trump's going to surrender because he's

1170
01:03:35.440 --> 01:03:41.239
got the midterms and he wants this resolved before the midterms.

1171
01:03:41.400 --> 01:03:45.199
He'll surrender. And if we have to. Here's something in mind.

1172
01:03:45.360 --> 01:03:47.639
When you're in a dictatorship, ten percent of the people

1173
01:03:47.679 --> 01:03:49.880
are stealing all the money.

1174
01:03:49.119 --> 01:03:50.920
They're going to eat.

1175
01:03:50.920 --> 01:03:53.960
They're going to have their caliar voegra and share pay

1176
01:03:54.679 --> 01:03:59.000
and whatever they want. It's the ninety percent of people

1177
01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:00.920
who are going to suff It's which they would say, well,

1178
01:04:00.920 --> 01:04:01.519
what do I care?

1179
01:04:02.199 --> 01:04:06.719
Right, exactly well, and then they're looking at our media.

1180
01:04:07.440 --> 01:04:10.039
I mean, their media is interesting. It's like Bagdag, Bob

1181
01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:13.559
and Iraq all over again to hear them talk, and

1182
01:04:13.599 --> 01:04:15.760
then our media picks up the narrative like it's one

1183
01:04:15.800 --> 01:04:19.639
hundred percent valid. I mean, there's no question, no critical thinking,

1184
01:04:20.599 --> 01:04:25.079
no critical positing on the reports coming out of Iran.

1185
01:04:25.679 --> 01:04:30.639
They take it wholesale cloth, and I mean it's amazing this.

1186
01:04:30.840 --> 01:04:33.400
You know, you and I often talk about well, of course,

1187
01:04:33.519 --> 01:04:36.199
in light of your book the multi front war. This

1188
01:04:36.280 --> 01:04:39.000
is a multifront war that we're in, and you think

1189
01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:41.000
of all the players, right, that's.

1190
01:04:40.920 --> 01:04:45.719
Right, that's exactly right. It's it's basically all the bad

1191
01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:48.599
guys in the world versus all the good guys in

1192
01:04:48.639 --> 01:04:51.920
the world. Unfortunately, all the good guys in the world

1193
01:04:52.039 --> 01:04:57.000
have sort of abandoned America, so it's really just America, Israel,

1194
01:04:57.440 --> 01:05:00.480
and the UAE. I would say, those are only three

1195
01:05:00.559 --> 01:05:05.679
real allies contributing on the bad guy side. You of

1196
01:05:05.679 --> 01:05:09.920
course have besides around you have China and Russia right

1197
01:05:10.119 --> 01:05:15.880
right behind them. And financing this mess. So now, one

1198
01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:18.760
other thing you mentioned about media. When the bad guys

1199
01:05:18.840 --> 01:05:22.199
look at our media, they get a mixed message. Some

1200
01:05:22.239 --> 01:05:26.199
Republicans says, oh, I support President Trump. Some other Republicans says,

1201
01:05:26.199 --> 01:05:27.760
I don't know about I don't know. Why are we

1202
01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:30.519
fighting this war? And then the Democrats say, we certainly

1203
01:05:30.559 --> 01:05:34.559
shouldn't be fighting this war. Why did we start this war? Now,

1204
01:05:34.679 --> 01:05:36.880
let's end this war. And so you can see what

1205
01:05:36.960 --> 01:05:39.880
a mixed message they get from us from our.

1206
01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:43.280
Media, and they're greatly encouraged, Thank you very much. The

1207
01:05:43.280 --> 01:05:46.800
mainstream media, some Republicans, as you say, and certainly the

1208
01:05:46.840 --> 01:05:51.360
Democratic Party Americans against them. This is just astounding to me.

1209
01:05:51.599 --> 01:05:53.000
Let's go to quick break. We'll pick it up on

1210
01:05:53.000 --> 01:05:54.679

Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez here with KENNETHA. Bromowitz. He's

1301
01:10:30.720 --> 01:10:35.600
the author of the multipron for Defending America from Political Islam, China, Russia, pandemics,

1302
01:10:35.800 --> 01:10:38.640

1303
01:10:38.720 --> 01:10:42.399
Maybe we need to protect ourselves, protect ourselves from ourselves.

1304
01:10:42.479 --> 01:10:45.880
He is the founder of Savedthwest dot com. Can let

1305
01:10:45.880 --> 01:10:49.319
me ask you this, what did you make of Trump's

1306
01:10:49.319 --> 01:10:52.560
announcement to start taking troops out of Germany.

1307
01:10:54.800 --> 01:10:58.319
Well, I think that was a good announcement. I think

1308
01:10:58.359 --> 01:11:01.800
it was a very modest announcement, although he publicly said

1309
01:11:02.960 --> 01:11:06.039
more to come, more to come. Keep watching right now,

1310
01:11:06.119 --> 01:11:09.960
I would just send a signal like that. As opposed

1311
01:11:10.000 --> 01:11:13.279
to one hundred thousand troops, I think we have seventy

1312
01:11:13.279 --> 01:11:18.159
five thousand if I remember from the internet. But bear

1313
01:11:18.199 --> 01:11:22.920
in mind, you're also sending a signal to Russia. Remember

1314
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:26.279
Russia's trying to take Ukraine, and right now Ukraine's winning

1315
01:11:26.760 --> 01:11:30.520
and Russia's in big trouble. So if just pretend you're

1316
01:11:30.520 --> 01:11:33.640
announced I'm taking almost all of my soldiers out, Russia

1317
01:11:33.760 --> 01:11:37.000
would salivate and say, oh great, let's go tack some

1318
01:11:37.039 --> 01:11:40.159
more countries. Isn't this fun. Let's see how much of

1319
01:11:40.199 --> 01:11:42.880
Europe we can take over. So I think it should

1320
01:11:42.920 --> 01:11:47.439
be of a token nature. Number one. Number two, my

1321
01:11:47.640 --> 01:11:52.800
problem is pretending I'm in the Trump administration. My problem

1322
01:11:52.920 --> 01:11:55.600
is not NATO itself, it's the country's in NATO. In

1323
01:11:55.640 --> 01:11:59.760
other words, I'm not happy with the morons running England

1324
01:11:59.760 --> 01:12:04.479
and UH and to a lesser extent Germany. So I'm

1325
01:12:04.520 --> 01:12:07.479
angry at the countries. I'm not angry at the concept

1326
01:12:07.560 --> 01:12:11.479
of having a NATO, which is we all unite together,

1327
01:12:11.560 --> 01:12:15.359
both the Europeans and America to protect Europe from Russia.

1328
01:12:15.399 --> 01:12:18.720
I think that's still a valid concept. I think present

1329
01:12:18.760 --> 01:12:22.279
Trump should be tougher on the leaders and say we

1330
01:12:22.680 --> 01:12:28.279
need better leadership in Europe and go through pressure for

1331
01:12:28.399 --> 01:12:30.399
regime change in European countries.

1332
01:12:30.760 --> 01:12:32.520
Do you think Trump had just a little bit of

1333
01:12:32.520 --> 01:12:34.479
a conversation with a king when he was out to

1334
01:12:34.520 --> 01:12:37.560
say maybe a better look at your prime minister?

1335
01:12:38.439 --> 01:12:38.840
Yeah?

1336
01:12:38.880 --> 01:12:42.199
Well, I just wrote something on my website just today

1337
01:12:42.680 --> 01:12:47.920
on the meeting with the King of England, and I said,

1338
01:12:47.960 --> 01:12:51.479
everything's wonderful publicly, and I enjoyed the show. I enjoyed

1339
01:12:51.479 --> 01:12:55.000
the speeches. It was very entertaining. And I said, but

1340
01:12:55.039 --> 01:12:57.399
what were they discussing in private? And I said, well,

1341
01:12:57.399 --> 01:13:00.199
I don't know what they're discussing in private, but I'm

1342
01:13:00.199 --> 01:13:03.439
gonna guess what they discussed again private, One of which

1343
01:13:03.479 --> 01:13:05.520
is where did you get that prime minister? And how

1344
01:13:05.560 --> 01:13:09.319
can you get rid of him? He's hurting the UK

1345
01:13:09.520 --> 01:13:15.359
tremendously and hurting the American UK relationship and it's time

1346
01:13:15.399 --> 01:13:18.159
to get a new leader there. I hope that came up,

1347
01:13:18.199 --> 01:13:21.359
even though it certainly didn't come up publicly.

1348
01:13:21.960 --> 01:13:22.079
No.

1349
01:13:22.359 --> 01:13:26.680
Well, and and I think wisely. So every once in

1350
01:13:26.720 --> 01:13:29.399
a while Trump gives you a little bit of breath

1351
01:13:29.439 --> 01:13:32.680
because sometimes he shoots from the hip and you go, oh,

1352
01:13:32.560 --> 01:13:34.600
why did you You didn't have to say that, but

1353
01:13:34.680 --> 01:13:39.880
he did, And in this particular case, he was mining

1354
01:13:39.880 --> 01:13:43.720
his manners and he did well. Like you said, I

1355
01:13:43.760 --> 01:13:45.920
think the visit you're exactly right. I think the way

1356
01:13:45.960 --> 01:13:50.079
you characterize it was very entertaining. It was fun, and

1357
01:13:50.119 --> 01:13:53.159
it was hopeful. And you hope that the king somehow,

1358
01:13:53.359 --> 01:13:56.640
you know though he tries to stay away from, you know,

1359
01:13:56.680 --> 01:14:00.720
things political. It's like, how can you do that? How

1360
01:14:00.800 --> 01:14:02.920
can you say you're gonna step away from things political?

1361
01:14:04.159 --> 01:14:06.800
Well, and another thing, he's saying, we have to have

1362
01:14:06.840 --> 01:14:10.520
a strong relationship, which is true between the English speaking

1363
01:14:10.600 --> 01:14:14.720
people here and there. That's great, But ninety eight percent

1364
01:14:14.720 --> 01:14:18.479
of the problem is them. They're not We're not the problem.

1365
01:14:18.840 --> 01:14:22.119
They're the problem. They're the one that losing confidence in

1366
01:14:22.159 --> 01:14:26.000
the Judeo Christian society. They're the ones who are human

1367
01:14:26.079 --> 01:14:28.840
rights violators, They're not protecting the ninety percent of the

1368
01:14:28.840 --> 01:14:31.880
people who are Christian or the little one percent who

1369
01:14:31.960 --> 01:14:38.319
are Jewish. And they're the ones who initially denied our

1370
01:14:38.439 --> 01:14:43.720
use of their basis for our plans. So they're the

1371
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:46.359
ones who are the problem. We're not the problem. But

1372
01:14:46.399 --> 01:14:49.039
it came off as if it was like an equal problem.

1373
01:14:49.079 --> 01:14:51.239
You know, we're not doing things, so well, they're not

1374
01:14:51.319 --> 01:14:54.840
doing something, you know, and let's fix each side. No, no,

1375
01:14:54.920 --> 01:14:57.319
let's fix them. That's what asked me. Done.

1376
01:14:57.800 --> 01:15:00.680
Well, that's why I resent this argument. It goes on

1377
01:15:00.680 --> 01:15:04.119
a nauseum about you know, there's we're there's wrong on

1378
01:15:04.159 --> 01:15:08.399
both sides. You know, that just neutralizes the conversation. You know,

1379
01:15:08.560 --> 01:15:13.760
that's right. Yeah, how silly is that? But you know,

1380
01:15:14.119 --> 01:15:15.880
going back to what we were talking about in terms

1381
01:15:15.880 --> 01:15:18.760
of the death cult and the mindset of Iran, I mean,

1382
01:15:19.079 --> 01:15:23.399
you know, unless we forget, you still have Gaza being controlled,

1383
01:15:23.439 --> 01:15:25.880
you know, forty five percent of Gaza controlled by that

1384
01:15:26.039 --> 01:15:29.359
death cult amas.

1385
01:15:28.359 --> 01:15:32.680
Yes, and also you have maybe a third of Lebanon

1386
01:15:32.800 --> 01:15:36.640
controlled by his will a death cult. Right and here,

1387
01:15:36.720 --> 01:15:41.640
and President Trump has put constraints on Israel on both

1388
01:15:41.680 --> 01:15:46.199
scores because he's simultaneously working with a run on a deal,

1389
01:15:46.720 --> 01:15:50.680
and he feels that if Israel is overpowering in Gaza

1390
01:15:51.000 --> 01:15:54.199
and in Lebanon, it'll reduce the chances of a deal

1391
01:15:54.319 --> 01:15:57.680
with a run. I if he asked my opinion, I

1392
01:15:57.680 --> 01:16:01.680
would say the opposite. I would say, Israel pressure his

1393
01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:07.159
and let Israel pressure from us and and and even

1394
01:16:07.239 --> 01:16:10.560
if they can destroy him, destroy them, that'll put pressure

1395
01:16:10.640 --> 01:16:13.920
on a round to come to a deal. And that's

1396
01:16:13.960 --> 01:16:16.199
the way, as we discussed in the first minute of

1397
01:16:16.720 --> 01:16:21.479
our conversation today, how we have to keep squeezing. And

1398
01:16:21.760 --> 01:16:25.720
Israel's happy to do a lot of the squeezing. Is like,

1399
01:16:25.920 --> 01:16:28.920
that's the ally America ever had. So let Israel do

1400
01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:32.039
the squeezing. If America doesn't want to do the squeezing.

1401
01:16:32.039 --> 01:16:34.960
Right, well, and that's how you bring people to the table.

1402
01:16:35.479 --> 01:16:37.960
And you know, because they'll be upset and saying, hey,

1403
01:16:38.000 --> 01:16:40.640
you got to control that. You got to control BB

1404
01:16:40.840 --> 01:16:44.359
and Israel from doing this. Well, you know, the only

1405
01:16:44.399 --> 01:16:46.319
way to control them is you got to be nice.

1406
01:16:46.439 --> 01:16:48.960
You know, we got to have peace talks. But they're

1407
01:16:48.960 --> 01:16:50.800
not going to They're not going to do this, you see,

1408
01:16:50.800 --> 01:16:54.399
because you know I'm with you on this. I don't

1409
01:16:54.399 --> 01:16:57.640
think a deal is there to be had. Trump was

1410
01:16:57.720 --> 01:17:01.800
right initially when he talked about unconditional surrender. That's what

1411
01:17:01.960 --> 01:17:04.520
has to happen with a death cult. You have to

1412
01:17:04.680 --> 01:17:08.520
get to that, to that matrix of an unconditional surrender,

1413
01:17:08.800 --> 01:17:11.159
and you don't do it by hitting the pause button.

1414
01:17:11.199 --> 01:17:11.840
I'm sorry.

1415
01:17:12.720 --> 01:17:16.520
Right now, Trump might have an ulterior motive. He has

1416
01:17:16.560 --> 01:17:18.840
many ulterior motives that he doesn't tell us about, so

1417
01:17:19.039 --> 01:17:23.039
we just want to guess he wants to show the

1418
01:17:23.079 --> 01:17:26.359
American public. I did everything possible to end this war.

1419
01:17:26.680 --> 01:17:28.760
I tried this, I tried that, I did this. I

1420
01:17:28.840 --> 01:17:32.720
said that, look at how hard I am trying to

1421
01:17:32.760 --> 01:17:36.159
stop this war. So that if and when we have

1422
01:17:36.279 --> 01:17:40.279
to continue the war, or when President Trump says, I

1423
01:17:40.319 --> 01:17:43.319
don't want to continue the war, but Israel I know

1424
01:17:43.359 --> 01:17:47.119
you want to. You have a bone to pick whether

1425
01:17:47.199 --> 01:17:49.359
run you finish the war. So America doesn't have to

1426
01:17:49.359 --> 01:17:53.000
finish it directly, he can say to the American people,

1427
01:17:53.119 --> 01:17:55.720
I tried everything possible. You don't like war. I don't

1428
01:17:55.800 --> 01:17:58.319
like war. I tried to end the war. They're just

1429
01:17:58.359 --> 01:18:00.800
they're looney tunes on the other side, and I just

1430
01:18:00.880 --> 01:18:03.920
couldn't reach the deal that I thought was good for America,

1431
01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:08.600
and that's why there's no deal. And I'm still blockading,

1432
01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:12.039
I'm still pressuring, and but we'll work. The deal will

1433
01:18:12.079 --> 01:18:15.319
come when it comes, and I think that's one of

1434
01:18:15.359 --> 01:18:18.159
the ways to protect him and the Republicans for the midterms.

1435
01:18:18.600 --> 01:18:22.279
Well, you know, surprisingly, Ken, when you look at some

1436
01:18:22.319 --> 01:18:24.399
of the polling that comes in, and I get pollings

1437
01:18:24.399 --> 01:18:26.880
all over the place, and it's a snapshot, we understand that.

1438
01:18:27.439 --> 01:18:30.439
But to hear our mainstream media, you think that the

1439
01:18:30.479 --> 01:18:33.800
American people in mass are against Iran. But that's not

1440
01:18:33.880 --> 01:18:36.840
what the polling according to, you know, the Harvard polling

1441
01:18:36.920 --> 01:18:39.680
is saying recently, you still have a majority of people

1442
01:18:39.760 --> 01:18:43.600
supporting Trump, and they're supporting these actions that Trump has

1443
01:18:43.680 --> 01:18:47.199
been executing on behalf of the Middle East and on

1444
01:18:47.239 --> 01:18:50.760
behalf of the American people. So it gives me encouragement

1445
01:18:51.279 --> 01:18:55.560
to see that the American people are starting to see

1446
01:18:56.000 --> 01:18:59.880
the long term and even short term gain here in

1447
01:19:00.199 --> 01:19:05.680
executing this war against Iran, because a nuclear Iran is unacceptable.

1448
01:19:06.000 --> 01:19:08.039
And you know, we were told for many years, you know,

1449
01:19:08.239 --> 01:19:11.159
by Barack Obama or Iran's not going to have a

1450
01:19:11.239 --> 01:19:13.680
nuclear weapon. But in much the same way as he

1451
01:19:13.760 --> 01:19:19.680
presented the case for you know, the Obamacare scam. You know,

1452
01:19:19.920 --> 01:19:22.760
they just flat out lied and you could see that

1453
01:19:22.840 --> 01:19:25.479
there was a sunset clause in this deal that they were,

1454
01:19:25.720 --> 01:19:28.079
you know, going to be able to go nuclear, you know,

1455
01:19:28.159 --> 01:19:31.359
down the road. And you know, they've been lying to

1456
01:19:31.439 --> 01:19:34.760
us all these years. And this is after the fact

1457
01:19:34.800 --> 01:19:38.159
that they've killed you know what, you know, thousands of Americans.

1458
01:19:39.159 --> 01:19:43.079
Yeah, they've killed the one thousand or more Americans directly,

1459
01:19:44.119 --> 01:19:47.800
I'm sure more indirectly they killed fifty thousand or so

1460
01:19:47.960 --> 01:19:52.079
of their own people. And but one of the problems,

1461
01:19:52.159 --> 01:19:54.039
and I agree with everything you just said, but I

1462
01:19:54.159 --> 01:19:57.560
just have to add Ron declared war in America forty

1463
01:19:57.600 --> 01:20:02.880
seven years ago, exactly is but our leaders purposely did

1464
01:20:02.920 --> 01:20:07.000
not want to say, oh, by the way, mister, mister voter,

1465
01:20:07.159 --> 01:20:10.359
we're in a war right now. Iron declared war on us,

1466
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:13.159
and we're in a war, and people go war, war,

1467
01:20:13.239 --> 01:20:15.680
What I don't like? Where I like peace? What do

1468
01:20:15.720 --> 01:20:18.600
you mean war? That would have put pressure on all

1469
01:20:18.640 --> 01:20:21.880
the presidents before to do something about it, and no

1470
01:20:21.920 --> 01:20:24.560
one wanted to do anything about it. And basically President

1471
01:20:24.600 --> 01:20:28.039
Trump got stuck holding the bag. And as I think

1472
01:20:28.680 --> 01:20:31.720
Harry Truman. President Truman said the buck stops here, and

1473
01:20:32.000 --> 01:20:34.920
btically the buck stopped with President Trump. He knew he

1474
01:20:35.000 --> 01:20:38.000
had to do something, even though the population didn't know

1475
01:20:38.439 --> 01:20:39.720
that we had to do something.

1476
01:20:40.119 --> 01:20:42.319
It's funny that all the other presidents said, yeah, the

1477
01:20:42.399 --> 01:20:45.119
buck stops here, but they treated it like a hot potato.

1478
01:20:47.600 --> 01:20:50.760
Gets that away from me. Well, Ken, as always, we

1484
01:21:03.680 --> 01:21:08.760
As always, everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you

1485
01:21:08.880 --> 01:21:12.000
name it. You're spending more you are making the same

1486
01:21:12.199 --> 01:21:13.119
or less money.

1487
01:21:13.479 --> 01:21:14.439
So what do you do?

1488
01:21:14.960 --> 01:21:17.159
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

1489

1494
01:21:34.039 --> 01:21:36.079

Well, good morning, Welcome back Phil Martinez here. For more

1551
01:24:41.680 --> 01:24:43.800
information on the show, you go to Bill Martinez Live

1552
01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:47.199
dot com. Did you know that May is National Stop

1553
01:24:47.279 --> 01:24:50.880
the Bleed Month? Believe it or not, Trauma season is

1554
01:24:50.920 --> 01:24:53.319
around the corner. Did you know there was a trauma season?

1555
01:24:54.000 --> 01:24:57.079
Injuries seemed to spike as temperatures rise, is what they

1556
01:24:57.119 --> 01:25:00.600
tell us. Experts urge everyone to prepare for unexpected medical

1557
01:25:00.640 --> 01:25:05.279
emergencies this summer, as injuries tend to surge during warmer months,

1558
01:25:05.319 --> 01:25:09.079
often referred to as trauma season. Summer spikes emergency room

1559
01:25:09.159 --> 01:25:13.560
visits nationwide as people, especially kids, spend more time outdoors.

1560
01:25:13.920 --> 01:25:18.079
Bleeding emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere, and to anyone. A

1561
01:25:18.119 --> 01:25:20.720
person can bleed to death within minutes after a serious

1562
01:25:20.760 --> 01:25:24.520
injury if not treated immediately. This according to the American

1563
01:25:24.640 --> 01:25:28.800
College of Surgeons, uncontrolled bleeding is a leading cause of

1564
01:25:28.920 --> 01:25:33.079
preventable death, and quick intervention using bleeding control techniques can

1565
01:25:33.159 --> 01:25:36.680
make a difference before first responders arrived. Here to tell

1566
01:25:36.720 --> 01:25:40.560
us more about it is doctor Carlos Plasio of the ACS,

1567
01:25:40.800 --> 01:25:43.199
and he's here to share some safety tips, how to

1568
01:25:43.199 --> 01:25:48.079
handle bleeding emergencies, information on free bleeding control training, and

1569
01:25:48.119 --> 01:25:52.479
what to always keep in your car or home. Doctor Plasio, Welcome, Michelle.

1570
01:25:52.520 --> 01:25:53.399
Good to have you with us.

1571
01:25:54.079 --> 01:25:56.000
Thank you so much, Thank you real for having me.

1572
01:25:56.359 --> 01:25:58.960
Well, Doctor Carlos, I got to tell you, I was surprised.

1573
01:25:59.039 --> 01:26:02.760
I had never really thought about the risk of injury

1574
01:26:03.359 --> 01:26:05.039
increasing during the summer months.

1575
01:26:05.079 --> 01:26:08.800
But it makes sense, right, Yeah. People is out, they

1576
01:26:08.840 --> 01:26:13.880
love you know, going cutting some trees, perhaps taking care

1577
01:26:13.880 --> 01:26:16.800
of some of the grass and the front yard, and

1578
01:26:17.239 --> 01:26:19.279
we just get in trouble during the summer.

1579
01:26:19.359 --> 01:26:22.680
Huh right, Yeah, that's because we're just not used to

1580
01:26:22.800 --> 01:26:24.640
working and doing all that kind of stuff, and anything

1581
01:26:24.640 --> 01:26:26.439
can happen, you know, as they say, it's kind of

1582
01:26:26.479 --> 01:26:29.960
Murphy's Law comes into play and the options are expanded

1583
01:26:30.039 --> 01:26:33.319
during the summer months clearly. So let's talk about some

1584
01:26:34.359 --> 01:26:37.920
life saving steps to help in any bleeding emergency.

1585
01:26:38.800 --> 01:26:42.720
Yeah, definitely. So we have three life saving steps. The

1586
01:26:42.800 --> 01:26:46.000
first one is applying pressure to the wound. You know,

1587
01:26:46.079 --> 01:26:48.079
we'll teach you how to do it. Usually this is

1588
01:26:48.119 --> 01:26:52.159
done with your palm. If that doesn't help, then you

1589
01:26:52.199 --> 01:26:55.039
will have to we will learn on how to pack

1590
01:26:55.119 --> 01:26:58.720
the wound, you know, making sure that you use the

1591
01:26:58.800 --> 01:27:00.039
appropriate tools.

1592
01:26:59.760 --> 01:27:01.239
So you stop that bleeding.

1593
01:27:01.520 --> 01:27:05.079
And if that doesn't help them, we're going to teach

1594
01:27:05.119 --> 01:27:08.279
you how to apply the tourniquet. And of course we're

1595
01:27:08.279 --> 01:27:10.319
going to teach you if it's appropriate to apply the

1596
01:27:10.359 --> 01:27:14.199
tourniquet around that arm or the leg or the area

1597
01:27:14.239 --> 01:27:16.039
where you have where you have the bleeding.

1598
01:27:16.800 --> 01:27:20.159
Hm. Well, I got to imagine in your experience, doctor Carlos,

1599
01:27:20.239 --> 01:27:22.800
you've got lots of stories to share, you know, real

1600
01:27:22.840 --> 01:27:26.199
life stories of you know, when people were bleeding and

1601
01:27:27.199 --> 01:27:30.560
and thank God for bleeding control training, right.

1602
01:27:31.359 --> 01:27:35.399
Yeah, Yeah, definitely. In my personal experience I have I've

1603
01:27:35.439 --> 01:27:39.439
had a few cases in which, you know, people they're

1604
01:27:39.840 --> 01:27:44.600
at a factory, they're working, they're outside, they're cutting some branch,

1605
01:27:45.000 --> 01:27:47.560
and some of the co workers that had already learned

1606
01:27:47.600 --> 01:27:50.119
these techniques are the ones that saved the life of

1607
01:27:50.159 --> 01:27:55.439
this of this person. It's important to know bild time

1608
01:27:55.560 --> 01:27:59.880
is critical. If somebody can bleed till death in minutes,

1609
01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:05.159
so immediate action is essential for this to happen. We

1610
01:28:05.279 --> 01:28:10.880
had another case recently with high high school students. He

1611
01:28:11.000 --> 01:28:14.960
lost his unfortunately he lost his arm on graduation night

1612
01:28:15.199 --> 01:28:18.920
after a crash bar I know, but his friends save him.

1613
01:28:19.119 --> 01:28:22.560
They all the techniques that they learned a few weeks before.

1614
01:28:23.399 --> 01:28:25.319
They were able to put the turning it around and

1615
01:28:25.359 --> 01:28:29.199
then saved the life. And that's very important, you know,

1616
01:28:29.359 --> 01:28:31.640
like because otherwise he would have probably not not even

1617
01:28:31.760 --> 01:28:36.079
make it. So I think these stories would really create

1618
01:28:36.720 --> 01:28:40.600
some importance of the topic with the public and.

1619
01:28:40.479 --> 01:28:44.039
What you're sharing here, Doctor Carlos, is something that anybody

1620
01:28:44.119 --> 01:28:48.920
can do. It It isn't necessarily age restricted. Like you said,

1621
01:28:49.000 --> 01:28:52.359
here's these high school students that otherwise, had they not

1622
01:28:52.479 --> 01:28:56.359
had the training, would have panicked and and and wasted

1623
01:28:56.399 --> 01:28:59.600
some precious time. As you say, in a bleeding incident,

1624
01:29:00.079 --> 01:29:04.039
time matters.

1625
01:29:02.279 --> 01:29:06.119
Correct, very very important, It's very important. Same as it

1626
01:29:06.279 --> 01:29:12.399
happened with CPR, the public anybody can definitely help and

1627
01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:14.279
save somebody's life for sure.

1628
01:29:14.960 --> 01:29:17.920
Well you mentioned CPR, it's like stop the bleeding. Training

1629
01:29:17.960 --> 01:29:20.279
in CPR should go hand in hand.

1630
01:29:20.159 --> 01:29:24.560
Right, correct, Yeah, they should go because again, this can

1631
01:29:24.640 --> 01:29:29.960
happen anywhere. It could be a kitchen injury, workplace injury,

1632
01:29:30.159 --> 01:29:33.960
car crashes. But we also live in a different era

1633
01:29:34.159 --> 01:29:39.079
right now. On larger scale, traumatic events happens and we

1634
01:29:39.159 --> 01:29:42.319
have to get ready for it. So if you don't

1635
01:29:42.560 --> 01:29:47.039
get the professional help, you can save yourself and people

1636
01:29:47.079 --> 01:29:50.039
around you by knowing these techniques as well during one

1637
01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:51.039
of these events.

1638
01:29:51.520 --> 01:29:54.920
Well exactly, And as you said, it doesn't take a

1639
01:29:54.960 --> 01:29:58.399
lot of time for somebody to bleed out, you know,

1640
01:29:58.600 --> 01:30:01.640
help our audience understand, I mean, because you know, if

1641
01:30:01.640 --> 01:30:04.520
somebody is bleeding, I mean, you know, as we've been stressing,

1642
01:30:04.880 --> 01:30:08.039
you know, time is of the essence and a matter

1643
01:30:08.079 --> 01:30:10.000
of minutes. I mean, what are you talking just in

1644
01:30:10.039 --> 01:30:15.199
a just a regular situation. How much time before somebody

1645
01:30:15.239 --> 01:30:17.399
actually bleeds out? Is that a fair question.

1646
01:30:18.439 --> 01:30:20.760
Yeah, I mean, and again it's going to depend on

1647
01:30:20.800 --> 01:30:24.760
where that leasion is. If it's very very close to

1648
01:30:24.840 --> 01:30:27.800
the chest, I would probably going to tell you it's

1649
01:30:27.800 --> 01:30:30.640
going to be a couple of minutes. Why because it's

1650
01:30:30.680 --> 01:30:33.960
closer to the heart. So every time that heart is

1651
01:30:34.000 --> 01:30:39.319
pumping blood by your arm and your chest, of course,

1652
01:30:39.359 --> 01:30:42.800
it's going to be very quickly. If it's more distal,

1653
01:30:43.600 --> 01:30:46.199
you have a few a little bit of time so

1654
01:30:46.239 --> 01:30:49.039
that you can do the appropriate measures and save a life.

1655
01:30:49.920 --> 01:30:52.840
Well, we're talking with doctor Carlos Polascio. He's the chair

1656
01:30:52.880 --> 01:30:56.399
of Southern Texas ACS Committee on Trauma. He's the director

1657
01:30:56.479 --> 01:31:00.560
at South Texas Health System in McAllen, Texas. And this

1658
01:31:00.680 --> 01:31:03.479
is you know, National Stop the Bleed Month, So we

1659
01:31:03.560 --> 01:31:05.800
need to take note of it. And you know, you

1660
01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:09.479
may be going to CPR classes, but you seriously consider

1661
01:31:10.279 --> 01:31:13.479
doing something regarding bleeding because, as we've been talking about,

1662
01:31:13.960 --> 01:31:18.039
with summer comes an increase in bleeding emergencies.

1663
01:31:18.079 --> 01:31:18.920
And what are you.

1664
01:31:18.920 --> 01:31:21.720
Going to do? You know, sometimes you think, well you

1665
01:31:21.720 --> 01:31:24.159
can handle it with a band aid, but sometimes you know,

1666
01:31:24.359 --> 01:31:27.359
these things can be pretty severe and if you've got

1667
01:31:27.359 --> 01:31:29.079
a lot of blood, you know, coming out of a

1668
01:31:29.119 --> 01:31:32.560
person's body. You know, you just got to I guess,

1669
01:31:32.560 --> 01:31:34.800
doctor Carlos. The first thing is say, hey, just don't

1670
01:31:34.840 --> 01:31:38.399
lose your mind, just breathe and get your senses together.

1671
01:31:38.800 --> 01:31:42.239
And of course, the more trained you are in handling

1672
01:31:42.239 --> 01:31:45.079
these kind of emergencies, the better you're going to be

1673
01:31:45.520 --> 01:31:48.520
in saving a friend or a loved one, right.

1674
01:31:49.159 --> 01:31:51.920
Correct, Yeah, that's what we offering the classes so that

1675
01:31:52.000 --> 01:31:55.199
the public is aware to take the appropriate steps and

1676
01:31:55.520 --> 01:31:59.239
just don't let the priest just or the shark just

1677
01:31:59.800 --> 01:32:03.119
get at you and you won't be able to do anything.

1678
01:32:03.159 --> 01:32:06.199
So it's very important to get the appropriate education. So

1679
01:32:06.279 --> 01:32:09.039
when the time comes, you're already you already know the

1680
01:32:09.039 --> 01:32:10.960
steps on what to do.

1681
01:32:11.560 --> 01:32:14.399
Well, tell us a typical class, what is it composed

1682
01:32:14.439 --> 01:32:16.800
of and how do we sign up? Go ahead?

1683
01:32:17.199 --> 01:32:20.199
Yeah, So the information is at to stop the bleed

1684
01:32:20.439 --> 01:32:25.039
dot org forward slash Summer. I'm gonna repeat it again,

1685
01:32:25.039 --> 01:32:28.760
to stop the bleed dot org forward slash Summer. You're

1686
01:32:28.800 --> 01:32:32.640
gonna find all the training courses, but most importantly the

1687
01:32:32.680 --> 01:32:36.079
class locations in your own area. So that's very important.

1688
01:32:36.239 --> 01:32:38.319
You can find where is the class going to be

1689
01:32:38.359 --> 01:32:42.119
held in your own area? And and of course you're

1690
01:32:42.119 --> 01:32:44.119
going to have the kids in there. How to buy

1691
01:32:44.119 --> 01:32:45.800
them if you want to have one at home. But

1692
01:32:45.880 --> 01:32:49.960
as I said before, they're commonly we find them more

1693
01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:55.479
frequently at airport, school stadiums, places like that. The training

1694
01:32:55.600 --> 01:32:58.439
is usually free, less than an hour. We teach you

1695
01:32:59.079 --> 01:33:02.640
the basics how to perform all the maneuvers that we

1696
01:33:02.720 --> 01:33:07.600
spoke before, and then we will give you some key

1697
01:33:07.640 --> 01:33:10.640
information on what to do with different injuries. So I

1698
01:33:10.680 --> 01:33:14.279
think this is important because this knowledge could save your

1699
01:33:14.359 --> 01:33:16.720
life or some or any of your loved ones.

1700
01:33:17.239 --> 01:33:19.319
Yeah, and who doesn't have an hour to do this?

1701
01:33:19.479 --> 01:33:22.880
I mean this is awesome. And these classes are readily

1702
01:33:22.920 --> 01:33:26.439
available anywhere, just about anywhere across the country.

1703
01:33:26.119 --> 01:33:28.000
Right correct, yes, sir?

1704
01:33:28.760 --> 01:33:32.680
Okay? And you mentioned stop the bleed kit. What's inside

1705
01:33:33.039 --> 01:33:34.000
stop the bleed kit?

1706
01:33:34.840 --> 01:33:35.359
Yeah?

1707
01:33:35.399 --> 01:33:40.239
So we have gloves to protect both the responder and

1708
01:33:40.279 --> 01:33:45.039
the injured person person. You also have some gauss some tourniquets.

1709
01:33:45.520 --> 01:33:48.479
The tourniquets would be your last step, but you also

1710
01:33:48.520 --> 01:33:54.880
have trauma shares that basically helps cutting clothing for better access.

1711
01:33:55.520 --> 01:33:58.600
You also have a permanent marker. That marker is very

1712
01:33:58.600 --> 01:34:01.239
important because you have to write the time the Tourniquet

1713
01:34:01.279 --> 01:34:04.960
went on, Yes, that's going to be very important for

1714
01:34:05.039 --> 01:34:09.479
the physician at the hospital, physician that is receiving the patient,

1715
01:34:09.760 --> 01:34:12.079
so we have to make some clinical decisions based on

1716
01:34:12.159 --> 01:34:15.119
that time. And then finally you're going to have an

1717
01:34:15.159 --> 01:34:18.119
instruction card, so for those that perhaps are in shock,

1718
01:34:18.720 --> 01:34:21.640
you also are going to have a reminder in there

1719
01:34:21.680 --> 01:34:25.079
on what are the steps necessary so that you can

1720
01:34:25.159 --> 01:34:27.319
take you can save a life.

1721
01:34:27.520 --> 01:34:30.359
Dot Carlos, this is brilliant. As we wrap things up,

1722
01:34:30.760 --> 01:34:33.800
we've been speaking with doctor Carlos Plasio of the ACS.

1723
01:34:34.279 --> 01:34:36.000
Where can people go for more information?

1724

It's good to have people that tolerate us.

1813
01:39:16.079 --> 01:39:18.239
Yeah, exactly, And I need a lot of toleration.

1814
01:39:20.039 --> 01:39:20.960
I'm in the same boat.

1815
01:39:21.359 --> 01:39:25.039
Yeah exactly. So, but we saw we saw Michael, and

1816
01:39:25.119 --> 01:39:27.520
I really you know, I'd been wanting to see it,

1817
01:39:27.560 --> 01:39:31.800
and this was a first chance, so I forced myself

1818
01:39:31.800 --> 01:39:34.720
into their date night. But yeah, it was good, you know,

1819
01:39:34.760 --> 01:39:38.840
the music, and to be reminded again of the genius

1820
01:39:38.880 --> 01:39:43.439
the exceptionalism of Michael Jackson. He was just so extraordinary.

1821
01:39:43.920 --> 01:39:46.760
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I mean, and I think that there

1822
01:39:46.920 --> 01:39:52.279
is in our ongoing conversation about whether the American dream

1823
01:39:52.399 --> 01:39:56.880
is dead, these sorts of stories remind us there are

1824
01:39:56.920 --> 01:40:03.279
still people who combine extraordinary talent, extraordinary vision, and hard

1825
01:40:03.399 --> 01:40:08.520
work to achieve things that might seem unimaginable. You know,

1826
01:40:08.560 --> 01:40:10.600
we see how Michael says, I'm going to be the

1827
01:40:10.600 --> 01:40:13.640
biggest pop star in the world. Yeah, and he does it,

1828
01:40:13.960 --> 01:40:14.760
and you know.

1829
01:40:14.720 --> 01:40:19.159
He has non racial right. That was interesting that that

1830
01:40:19.239 --> 01:40:22.199
brought up, and it seemed, I mean, his ethos seemed

1831
01:40:22.199 --> 01:40:25.520
to be very consistent with one Michael Jordan right that

1832
01:40:25.640 --> 01:40:28.840
he was there, he was going to be an entertainer

1833
01:40:28.880 --> 01:40:29.479
for the people.

1834
01:40:29.880 --> 01:40:30.119
Yep.

1835
01:40:30.600 --> 01:40:35.319
And I think, you know, I don't want to sound

1836
01:40:35.359 --> 01:40:39.079
like an old fuddy duddy, right, but I think there

1837
01:40:39.279 --> 01:40:44.239
is a dignity in the grind. And we have so

1838
01:40:44.479 --> 01:40:48.239
much and sometimes when I hear people complain about how

1839
01:40:48.239 --> 01:40:51.399
hard things are, I know things are hard. I have

1840
01:40:51.520 --> 01:40:54.319
experienced it, my parents have experienced it. I don't want

1841
01:40:54.359 --> 01:40:59.079
to minimize that. But I also think I wonder if

1842
01:40:59.119 --> 01:41:01.399
one of the things that is gotten lost in our

1843
01:41:02.039 --> 01:41:05.880
you know, always on our phone's instant gratification world, is

1844
01:41:06.479 --> 01:41:09.800
what I might call the dignity of the grind, that

1845
01:41:09.920 --> 01:41:13.560
when you want something, not everything happens instantly. Some things

1846
01:41:13.600 --> 01:41:15.960
don't happen at all, no matter how hard we try.

1847
01:41:16.880 --> 01:41:19.439
But that when we talk about, oh, the American dream

1848
01:41:19.560 --> 01:41:22.199
is dead, I'm like, well, what if it's not dead,

1849
01:41:22.239 --> 01:41:24.600
It just takes more than four months to try to

1850
01:41:24.720 --> 01:41:27.439
make it work. You know, I think I think that

1851
01:41:27.479 --> 01:41:30.640
we're culturally impatient. And again, I know, I'm sure that

1852
01:41:30.720 --> 01:41:34.000
lots of people could critique that point of view, but

1853
01:41:34.199 --> 01:41:38.920
I think stories like that one remind me, Yeah, it's

1854
01:41:39.000 --> 01:41:42.560
it's still possible to chase our dreams. And I think

1855
01:41:42.600 --> 01:41:45.479
that's why those sorts of stories resonate with us so deeply,

1856
01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:46.039
you know.

1857
01:41:46.039 --> 01:41:49.159
And it reminds you, like you said that, you know,

1858
01:41:49.279 --> 01:41:53.560
merit counts, hard work counts exactly. He was very committed

1859
01:41:53.720 --> 01:41:57.920
and focused, and I'd never really had been aware of that,

1860
01:41:58.359 --> 01:42:02.000
you know, you just you know, you see you see

1861
01:42:02.039 --> 01:42:06.039
his brilliance on stage, and yeah, it flows so naturally

1862
01:42:06.159 --> 01:42:10.000
his dancing skills and everything. But you know, you don't

1863
01:42:10.039 --> 01:42:12.159
realize he did his homework.

1864
01:42:12.640 --> 01:42:16.279
He did, he did, And I've never talked about this before.

1865
01:42:16.319 --> 01:42:19.600
My mom was a professional pianist. She was the staff

1866
01:42:19.640 --> 01:42:23.760
accompanist for the string department at Drake University in Des Moines,

1867
01:42:23.880 --> 01:42:27.479
so for all of the string students, she was the

1868
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:30.640
one who played for their final performances. So I grew

1869
01:42:30.680 --> 01:42:34.720
up in a home where there was constantly violins, cellos, rehearsing,

1870
01:42:35.119 --> 01:42:37.640
drove me crazy. I had no ability as a kid

1871
01:42:37.640 --> 01:42:41.079
to appreciate how amazing it was. But she said, here's

1872
01:42:41.079 --> 01:42:43.279
the point. You're like, what's the point, Adam, Get to

1873
01:42:43.359 --> 01:42:46.600
the point. Here it is. She said, almost without exception,

1874
01:42:47.560 --> 01:42:52.520
the most talented musicians that she worked with were not

1875
01:42:52.840 --> 01:42:58.319
the ones who who had it going on. It was

1876
01:42:58.359 --> 01:43:01.079
the ones who worked hard. And she said, hard work

1877
01:43:01.800 --> 01:43:04.800
almost always trump's talent. You can have all the raw

1878
01:43:04.800 --> 01:43:07.640
ability in the world, but if you don't put the

1879
01:43:07.720 --> 01:43:10.079
work in, you're never going to see you know, that

1880
01:43:10.439 --> 01:43:13.960
possibility realized completely. And that's always stuck with me that

1881
01:43:14.079 --> 01:43:17.399
it isn't it isn't really about talent, but it is

1882
01:43:17.479 --> 01:43:20.159
about how hard you work. And I want to believe

1883
01:43:21.199 --> 01:43:24.840
that that's still even in our crazy world today, with

1884
01:43:25.039 --> 01:43:28.640
so many things that we can become anxious about, that

1885
01:43:28.720 --> 01:43:32.800
it still matters showing up, working hard and just giving

1886
01:43:32.800 --> 01:43:36.239
yourself to the grind has dignity, and that God honors

1887
01:43:36.279 --> 01:43:37.880
that too in our spiritual walk.

1888
01:43:38.359 --> 01:43:41.720
Right exactly, well, I think, And I can't remember the

1889
01:43:41.800 --> 01:43:47.039
musician's name, but I'll never forget what he said about scales.

1890
01:43:47.600 --> 01:43:51.560
He said that, you know, he practiced scales every day. Yeah,

1891
01:43:51.760 --> 01:43:55.119
he said, if he didn't practice scales every day, he said,

1892
01:43:55.239 --> 01:43:59.680
after a week, he said, the critics might begin to

1893
01:43:59.760 --> 01:44:03.720
know it is something off, he said. And he went

1894
01:44:03.760 --> 01:44:07.560
on and said it was months of not practicing his

1895
01:44:07.640 --> 01:44:10.920
scales where he got delinquent. He said, Then the audience

1896
01:44:11.119 --> 01:44:16.039
might begin, he says, But the musician himself always knows

1897
01:44:16.319 --> 01:44:17.800
before anybody else.

1898
01:44:17.680 --> 01:44:20.520
Right, Yep, No, that's exactly right. And I think I

1899
01:44:20.560 --> 01:44:23.520
think one of the dangers, and there are they are

1900
01:44:23.680 --> 01:44:28.880
myriad of our current AI age is that for so

1901
01:44:29.000 --> 01:44:32.000
many things there's now this instant shortcut. And I know

1902
01:44:32.079 --> 01:44:35.359
that there are things that AI you know, does that

1903
01:44:35.600 --> 01:44:38.279
can be redemptive, that can make us more efficient. But

1904
01:44:38.399 --> 01:44:40.920
when it comes to artistry, when it comes to music,

1905
01:44:40.960 --> 01:44:43.760
when it comes to writing, when it comes to even

1906
01:44:43.920 --> 01:44:47.199
you know, video creation, we're entering into this strange time

1907
01:44:47.279 --> 01:44:50.880
where you can struggle and work to create something and

1908
01:44:50.920 --> 01:44:52.800
take hours to do it, or you can throw a

1909
01:44:52.840 --> 01:44:55.479
prompt and chat GPT and have it crank out something

1910
01:44:55.520 --> 01:44:58.960
in five minutes. And just teaching our kids that there

1911
01:44:59.119 --> 01:45:02.439
is there is value in that hard work and the

1912
01:45:02.520 --> 01:45:05.000
process of learning and what we used to call paying

1913
01:45:05.000 --> 01:45:09.239
your dues. And I fear that that AI is short

1914
01:45:09.279 --> 01:45:11.920
circuiting that for a generation growing up with it.

1915
01:45:12.319 --> 01:45:14.800
No, you're right, I agree with you that it will

1916
01:45:14.840 --> 01:45:17.439
have its impact. But you know, the thing we love

1917
01:45:17.479 --> 01:45:20.000
about the truth is the cream always.

1918
01:45:19.680 --> 01:45:21.520
Rises to the toil does right.

1919
01:45:21.880 --> 01:45:26.880
And so what will happen is the generations forward will

1920
01:45:26.920 --> 01:45:30.079
realize that yes, okay, maybe it gives them a leg up,

1921
01:45:30.159 --> 01:45:34.000
and it gives them a launching pad at a higher elevation,

1922
01:45:34.880 --> 01:45:38.000
but that's just the launching pad. You still got to

1923
01:45:38.039 --> 01:45:40.359
get up in the air and get the job done right.

1924
01:45:40.640 --> 01:45:44.840
Oh, that's right. And that is something I think we're

1925
01:45:44.880 --> 01:45:49.159
working through societally, and we're seeing it turn up, you know,

1926
01:45:49.279 --> 01:45:52.520
and entertainment in strange ways, with you know, Taylor Swift

1927
01:45:52.560 --> 01:45:56.279
trying to you know, trademark her image and her voice,

1928
01:45:56.359 --> 01:45:59.279
and you know, you've got these creatives who are trying

1929
01:45:59.319 --> 01:46:02.159
to make sure that they don't get taken advantage of it.

1930
01:46:02.359 --> 01:46:04.319
There are all sorts of tendrils that we could talk

1931
01:46:04.359 --> 01:46:09.439
about here with regard to how it impacts us. But

1932
01:46:09.720 --> 01:46:13.159
when you come back to it, especially when it comes

1933
01:46:13.199 --> 01:46:17.239
to entertainment, the story is what matters. And human stories

1934
01:46:17.279 --> 01:46:23.199
like Michael, they entertain us because they offer us a

1935
01:46:23.279 --> 01:46:26.439
reminder of what it means to strive for something big

1936
01:46:26.600 --> 01:46:28.319
and I think that we need that, we need that

1937
01:46:29.800 --> 01:46:34.119
redemptive and aspirational sort of voice in our lives.

1938
01:46:34.359 --> 01:46:38.039
Well, it reinforces that it's possible exactly. I mean, this

1939
01:46:38.119 --> 01:46:39.279
is what hope is all about.

1940
01:46:39.399 --> 01:46:42.399
That's what hope is all about, exactly exactly.

1941
01:46:42.479 --> 01:46:45.680
So anyway, I was impressed. I think it's a good movie.

1942
01:46:45.720 --> 01:46:48.680
And obviously there's going to be part two. In part

1943
01:46:48.760 --> 01:46:52.199
two we'll probably get into some of the not so

1944
01:46:52.359 --> 01:46:56.159
pleasant part of his aneosyncratic career in life.

1945
01:46:56.520 --> 01:46:58.640
Yeah, it may not be quite as much the feel

1946
01:46:58.680 --> 01:46:59.319
good movie that.

1947
01:46:59.359 --> 01:46:59.840
The first was.

1948
01:47:01.960 --> 01:47:03.880
Just keep the music playing. We want to see we

1949
01:47:03.920 --> 01:47:06.239
want to see music videos. But like I say, it

1950
01:47:06.319 --> 01:47:10.960
reminds you of, you know, what we went through during

1951
01:47:10.960 --> 01:47:14.439
this period of time, and what he offered creatively and

1952
01:47:14.479 --> 01:47:17.199
how he advanced I mean, here was MTV didn't want

1953
01:47:17.239 --> 01:47:20.560
to play any black artists, right, Oh, I know it's

1954
01:47:20.600 --> 01:47:22.439
hard to think that that was the case, you know.

1955
01:47:22.720 --> 01:47:26.560
I know, it is hard really to get your head

1956
01:47:26.560 --> 01:47:28.760
around all of that. And that's you know, some of

1957
01:47:28.760 --> 01:47:30.199
what we see depicted in this movie.

1958
01:47:30.439 --> 01:47:32.359
All right, let's talk some other movies, what else you

1959
01:47:32.359 --> 01:47:33.079
got up your sleeves?

1960
01:47:33.119 --> 01:47:35.920
So we have another really interesting one. It's called Remarkably

1961
01:47:35.960 --> 01:47:39.680
Bright Creatures. It stars Sally Field, who I can't remember

1962
01:47:39.720 --> 01:47:41.880
the last time I saw a movie. A new movie

1963
01:47:41.880 --> 01:47:47.439
with Sally Field in it. She plays basically a janitor

1964
01:47:48.840 --> 01:47:52.720
cleaning lady, if you will, named Tova, at an aquarium.

1965
01:47:53.039 --> 01:47:56.439
She lost her son thirty years before in a horrible accident,

1966
01:47:57.399 --> 01:48:00.800
and there's still chatter about whether her son committed suicide

1967
01:48:00.920 --> 01:48:04.960
or what really happened. And now her husband has died

1968
01:48:05.000 --> 01:48:07.920
and she is really alone, and she talks to or

1969
01:48:08.079 --> 01:48:12.600
vents to an octopus at the exhibit named Marcellus, but

1970
01:48:12.720 --> 01:48:16.800
she doesn't know that Marcellus is a wise octopus. Marcellus

1971
01:48:16.880 --> 01:48:20.079
is our narrator for the movie. Marcellus is also dying,

1972
01:48:20.840 --> 01:48:24.960
and he realizes that Tova is really going to be

1973
01:48:25.000 --> 01:48:28.439
all alone once he passes, and so he's trying to

1974
01:48:28.479 --> 01:48:32.479
help facilitate her relationship with a troubled young man named

1975
01:48:32.520 --> 01:48:35.479
Cameron who has started working there. And so it's a

1976
01:48:35.520 --> 01:48:39.920
movie about friendship, about second chances. There's enough profanity here

1977
01:48:39.920 --> 01:48:42.960
to get into PG thirteen rating, which I think is unfortunate.

1978
01:48:43.880 --> 01:48:46.039
That said, This is not the kind of movie kids

1979
01:48:46.079 --> 01:48:49.640
are going to have any interest in whatsoever, So I

1980
01:48:49.640 --> 01:48:52.840
think it's pretty navigable for adults. And ultimately there is

1981
01:48:52.880 --> 01:48:56.880
a redemptive message here. It's a pretty nice movie. I

1982
01:48:57.039 --> 01:48:59.119
just you know, do we have to have f bombs

1983
01:48:59.159 --> 01:49:04.479
in a movie like? It just feels gratuitous and unnecessary.

1984
01:49:05.439 --> 01:49:07.520
Project Hill Mary Come, Yeah.

1985
01:49:07.560 --> 01:49:11.359
Right, Project Hill Mary is Back. It's probably the biggest

1986
01:49:11.359 --> 01:49:15.279
movie of the year just in terms of box office,

1987
01:49:16.000 --> 01:49:19.920
and it is a terrific you know, save Earth by

1988
01:49:20.000 --> 01:49:23.600
going into space, by figuring out why the sun is dying.

1989
01:49:23.640 --> 01:49:28.399
It stars Ryan Gosling as a as an astronaut who's

1990
01:49:28.439 --> 01:49:30.439
on a mission to save Earth, and when he wakes

1991
01:49:30.520 --> 01:49:33.600
up from cryo sleep, his fellow astronauts are dead, so

1992
01:49:33.720 --> 01:49:38.680
it's all on him. It's by sam Is Sam Weir,

1993
01:49:39.359 --> 01:49:44.359
the author Andy Weir my bad who also did The Martian.

1994
01:49:45.039 --> 01:49:52.119
So very realistic, feeling science fiction and really hopeful, redemptive movie. Again.

1995
01:49:52.439 --> 01:49:54.439
I think it did well because this is the kind

1996
01:49:54.439 --> 01:49:56.359
of movie we want to see in theaters and now

1997
01:49:56.439 --> 01:49:56.920
at home.

1998
01:49:57.279 --> 01:49:59.560
Yeah, somemmer around the corner. What do we have to

1999
01:49:59.560 --> 01:50:00.000
look forward?

2000
01:50:00.760 --> 01:50:06.000
Well, we have Mandalorian and grogo. Next week we'll have

2001
01:50:06.039 --> 01:50:09.920
the Supergirl movie, We'll have a Spider Man movie, so

2002
01:50:10.119 --> 01:50:12.880
you know, superheroes and star wars just like every other

2003
01:50:12.920 --> 01:50:13.960
summer pretty much.

2004
01:50:16.319 --> 01:50:19.279
So get ready it's time for a popcorn, the big

2005
01:50:19.319 --> 01:50:23.359
gulp and have some fun movies with the family, hopefully

2006
