Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wars and rumors of wars, and then wars no one
is talking about except the people who are being put
through those particular wars. Lots of eyes on Israel and Hamas,
growing frustration, a lot of conservatives saying, why do we have.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
To do everything that Israel wants us to do? Why
is that?

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Particularly among young conservatives. I see Newsmax is busily busily
promoting very heavily articles saying that Charlie Kirk was all
in on Israel. At the same time that you can
watch videos of Charlie Kirk questioning October seventh, questioning whether
Israel is going to go out and do a genocide.

(00:49):
You can see text messages where Charlie Kirk this has
been confirmed by TPUSA saying, you know what, I've lost
a two million dollar donor because of my questions, but
this leads me no choice but to step back from
Israel and those of us who concentrate on United States.

(01:10):
We also have war here and it's bubbling up. They're
trying to push this into a full on gun battle,
gunfight between ice, CPB and the left. They're begging for this,
They're begging to have civilians caught in that crossfire.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
They still want this.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Meanwhile, in Nigeria, I wonder what our responsibility is in Nigeria,
if we have any responsibility or at all at all.
As Christians, we have a responsibility. We'll talk about our
Christian responsibility. But then let's talk about the responsibility the
United States to stop what looks like a full on

(01:51):
slaughter of Christians. We'll do this with the help of
Visible that's gobisible dot com. Make sure you have the
corporate value you think you do. They'll tell you if
you do or don't out Let's go Visible dot com.
And of course the courtesy of God Almighty.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
But Todd Herman show is one disapproved by big pharma
technocrats in tyrans everywhere from the high mountains of Free America.
Here's the Emerald City exile Todd Herman.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Today is the day the Lord has made in These
are the times to which God has decided we shall live.
And you know, I think is better on Antifa and
the structure of this domestic terror group than I think
anyone in the country. I guard him as the expert
on them and how they're structured and organized.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
He wrote about the first federal terror.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Case against Antifa Federal Guide jerysonded two members of North
Texas Antifa cell for a terror plot and shooting attack.
And because it's Antifa, one of them has to be
gender defiant and they are and so called Transtifa member.
For the first time in US history, Antifa members have
been federally charged with terrorism crimes, and incidentally, it's the
first time federal charges have been brought, not state charges.

(03:14):
On October fifteen, a federal grand jury in the Northern
District of Texas indicted two men are part of a
North Texas Antifa cell. The accused of participating in a
coordinated ambush shooting attack on July four, Hey, that's Independence
Day on a federal immigration detention center in Alvareto, Texas
that left a police officer wounded. Cameron Arnold, a Trantifa

(03:36):
trans Tifa also known as Autumn Hill, and Zachary Everetts
were indicted with one counter providing mature support for terrorism,
three counts of attempted murder, three counts of discharging a
firearm during, during and in relation to a crime of violence.
So these guys can play some pretty serious charge of
a pretty serious time behind bars. They were members of

(03:57):
the John Brown Gun Club, which is Antifa a JA.
This is the first of hopefully many Antifa members who
are charged this way. Cash Patel talked about this.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
It's just one more moment on that point, because you've
seen in the last couple of years. I mean, Antifa
has been around, but people on the left and the
far left say that Antifa doesn't exist. It's a state
of mind. Blah blah, blah blah. You're saying two real
people domestic terrorists. Okay, they were indicted by the Grand jury.
I mean, if they're not real, then how come two

(04:28):
people were ignited and that they were involved in attacking
the ICE facility.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
They have to be real.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
It's not a state of mind.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:38):
I encourage every going to read the first sense of
the indictment. It says the North Texas Antifa self. That's
literally the opening savle in the indictment. And where do
these people collaborate and come from. It's not just Texas.
They're out burning courthouses in Portland, They're out becoming destructive
activities in Los Angeles. And the FBI has arrested dozens
of these individuals, and thanks to our new investment negative programs,

(05:01):
under President Trump designate of these guys at domestic terrorism.
We have opened up multiple field investigations across the country
looking at the banking and financial facilitation that we are
treating them as terrorists just like we do Al Qaeda
or ISIS. People pay for this destructive act of violence,
and those people are going to be brought to justice
now that we have the authorities we need.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
To go after them, all right, So it's organized, it's rico,
it's terrorism, and Andy No has been all over this.
We've been reporting here on Antifa since I saw Ads
in the Stranger, which is effectively a sex trafficking funded
magazine in Seattle to have people go learn how to
make IDs in a park in Georgetown almost ten years ago.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
So they're full on domestic teriffts and they're here.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Too, so obviously discords and descents and try to get
a hot shooting war going. They're trying to normalize attack
on attacks on federal government officers. They beg to have
the sort of violence that we're seeing in other areas
of the world. One of the concerns with mass migration,
particularly of people who are Muslim, is you don't just

(06:07):
import their bodies. You import their minds, you import their
informed activities, you import their habits, you import their intent.
And bad actors look at our immigration policies as opportunities
to flood us. Do you don't think they've read cloud
Piven You don't think that the Al Qaeda Isis operatives,

(06:27):
the Chinese Communist Party operatives have you think they've failed
to read the cloud Pivet plan on how to take
down democracies.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Flood our systems.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
So I concentrate on domestic stuff because it's nearest me.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
But it's not.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Because I don't recognize Jesus Christ as the Lord of all.
He's the king of the universe. He's the He's not
the lord of the United States or of Texas. He
made the whole world. And we as Christians needs to
hurt when other Christians are being slaughtered. When one member

(07:03):
of the body of Christ suffers, we're all to suffer.
And this isn't to say that you can't have concerns
about Israel's activity in Gaza or Hamas, which I consider
to be profoundly satanic. I think almost openly satanic. Doesn't
mean that you can't have concerns about what looks like
a huge number of children being killed in Gaza. We

(07:28):
should have concerns about that and keeping in mind how
Hamas places their weaponry. One of the reasons I shy
away from that conflict a little bit is because it's
as old as the Bible, and I don't think we
can go back and solve it.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Doesn't mean that I'm not concerned.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
If Israel is in fact targeting civilians, we are paying
for that. That should stop us in our tracks and
make sure that's not happening. We should at least have
oversight and transparent oversight, right. I mean, we can question
our govern but we can't question Israel's questions are healthy.

(08:06):
My question about Nigeria. So what is our role? Do
we have one? Because Jesus is the lord of the universe,
not of a small part of the universe, the United States.
God made a very special care to sign his work,
starting with the Bible.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
In the beginning was the word, the word is with God,
The word was God.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Jesus became then the word in flesh, and the word
dwelt among us. He gave special I think care to
sign his work with what you can look at and
the stars and the where planet is placed also in
our DNA and how our bodies work. And if you
take this comparison between let's say, healthcare in Mexico versus
health care in the United States, there's some actual advantages

(08:48):
to healthcare in Mexico.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Did you know that? And I'm not just talking about Renew.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
We'll talk about that in a second, but did you
know in Mexico that they do not push you to surgery?

Speaker 2 (08:58):
First?

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Think about this in the States. Let's see, let's try
some physical therapy with that ailment. Oh, that didn't work.
Let's get you cut open, and that violates the Hippocratic oath,
which is to first do no harm. Cutting you does harm.
Cutting into your muscle fibers does harm. Cutting into your bone,
your cards, that all does harm. So what's the least
invasive thing you can do? Did you know that New
Mexico they take the next step of looking at things

(09:20):
like stem cells. That's why Renew thrives down there. Secondly,
because Renew is allowed to use donor stem cells, meaning
they get to pick and choose whose stem cells they
use from umbilical cords. The Wharton's jelly portion of that
they get to reject some I'm sorry this person's been
a drug addict.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
This person has had these diseases. This person had cancer,
We're sorry about that. This baby does not appear to
be healthy. God help the baby. But we can't take
the stem cells. Don't get to do that in the States,
does the stem cells or stem cells in Mexico. When
Renewed gets these stem cells, they take them down to
a world class lab, they analyze them. If there's any

(09:59):
problems they see, they just reject them. That's how they
reject eighty to ninety percent of the cells. So what
they put in your body to solve things like erectile
dysfunction by bringing that part of the body back to life,
or male or even female pattern baldness by bringing.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
The follicles back to life effectively.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Or getting people back the use of their hands or
their feet carpal tunnel, or keeping you out of surgery, knee.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
Surgery, back surgery, et cetera. That's why it's so potent.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
If you have any of these ailments or even things
like traumatic brain injuries, stop just go to the website
renew r E n ue dot healthcare. It's not dot com,
it's renew dot Healthcare. Are E n U e Dot
Healthcare telling me you're part of the Todd Hermonial family
and they will tell you if they can help you
or not.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
There are wars, and there.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Are rumors of wars, and the Bible tells us that
there'll be these times wars and rumors of wars. God's
word is always useful for teaching and rebuke and instruction,
and it is prophetic. Clearly, Jesus Christ fulfilled so many
of the prophecies about him. We were in youth group
did the night talking about the odds of someone fulfilling

(11:09):
even I think we did eight of the prophecies in Isaiah.
Eight out of I think the forty one major prophecies,
it was a one in seven, one in seventeen, with
seventeen zero chance of someone completing even eight of the
forty one prophecies. So we were told there would be

(11:30):
wars and rumors of wars. We're also cautioned in the
Bible as Christians to view the body of Christ as
a body. So hence the body of Christ. Paul teaches
us that there's no supremacy. That you might regard the
thumb as a far more or less importance element of

(11:50):
the body than say the app and the eye or
the mouth, and then the thumb might say, hey, you
know what, good luck feeding yourself. Try that without me.
You might look at the feet is something that's I mean,
they're just feet, and feet are ugly and they're funny
looking and they smell, and your feet might say yeah,
that's true. And who's going to walk you over to

(12:11):
the watering hole if you don't have feet? So we
are gifted differently. It's a body of Christ. Some of
us are gifted to speak well, some of us are
gifted with minds for math, etc. But we're all one
body and in the Body of Christ. As we've commonly
remind people, there is no servant, no master, no Greek,

(12:35):
no Jew And you can expand that into no Americans
and no Nigerians. So our cast praise God and thank
you to everybody who's been so loyal with us all
through the years. God, bless you, God, just thank you
for that. We've got not the hugest audience, but we've
got the most loyal for sure, for sure.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
And thank you for that.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
We in this family need to do a prayer check
and a heart check about what we've been doing with Nigeria,
or rather not doing. And this is a hard one
for me because I'm so bleeding sick of wars. But
I see that we're backing up troops.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Now in Venezuela.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
We've got a whole we got like one quarter of
our naval forces now down in the Caribbean. And I
get it. Venezuela's flooding drugs into our country.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
They're bringing Fenton al.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
I'm not wildly against the attacks via drone on these ships.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
I actually do lean.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Towards Ran Paul saying, hey, can we get back to
declaring war? You know, before we give presidents to the
authority to zap people from the sky with drones, could
we declare war and have some congressional oversights.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
I kind of like those olden days. I also worry about.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
The energy resources there, because I don't think for five
seconds that the big energy companies really believe they're going
to solve everything to solar, etc.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
But here we are bringing our troops down there into
the Caribbean.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Is it because we're going to go attack them to
shut down their cartels?

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Maybe? What about Nigeria.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
I'm not asking President Trump to become the president of
Christians I think President Trump is a baby Christian himself
growing in faith. Everyone starts somewhere, so I'm not looking
at him to be a spiritual leader. But I'm trying
to think through this to the eyes of Jesus of
what are you doing with my children? Why are you
letting mishappen? To whom much is given, much is expected?

(14:39):
And this is the other side of the equation. We've
been given a lot. Are we under any requirement having
been given a lot to use a lot to go
down and stop what's happening Nigeria. This is a Nigerian
pastor and some of this has pointed out in the backgrounds,
and there's a reason it's pixel later. It's because it

(15:01):
is the bodies of fallen people, people who have been
unalived by terrorists who are there killing Christians. So it's
a little bit hard to understand given the sound quality.
It's clear that English is not his first language, and
yet he has a second, to third, probably fourth. So
here he is with a plea to us, to President Trump,

(15:24):
to America to do something.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
What that means, I'm not going to dip I'm not different.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
And he has jumped down into a mass grave pastor did.

Speaker 6 (15:41):
I'm diato, Baria, I'm diato.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Brought out we are diet, But tell them how's this head?

Speaker 6 (15:50):
One is diaconia, all deaflas is we're diet.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
So I'm pausing this just to provide some counterpoints. Had
a really interesting discussion the other day with a parent
in a youth group who does not come to church,
but his son does. And he told me he just
can't stand the music at church, just too loud, so

(16:18):
he doesn't go. And this pastor is maybe dealing with
some other concerns. Am I trying to shame that man? Probably,
probably these people would not give up their faith. All
they had to do was say, okay, we give up.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
We're Muslim. Now, pastor continues, it is.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Better for me to be and.

Speaker 6 (16:46):
Is better for me to be in Ahmed Bada in
this sense God to be outset performing boy him everything
My brodda was fat.

Speaker 7 (17:00):
And silence.

Speaker 6 (17:02):
Now is that every one of you must be ready
for self defense.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
Every one of you must be ready for self defense.
We are given life by gods. It gives us life,
and liberty gives us the opportunity to pursue happiness. We
know we were given life, that's clear. We were given liberty,
which is freedom within constraints, that's clear from the garden on.
And to pursue happiness. We're told that the true happiness

(17:31):
comes from attachment to the vine. So the pastor goes
on with this. This request is this plea for help
and condemning the government for saying it's not happening. And
he does go on to plead for President Trump to
come and help. So we as Christians have to.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
Hurt for this.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
At the very least, we need to mourn. At the
very least, we need to be in prayer. At the
very least. We need to give sources to however we can.
But that's tough in Nigeria because how do you make
sure it doesn't go to complete corruption. This is a
source that I look to for what are the numbers?
And I looked at Life Site News. I looked as
independent as I can get, because there's also many people

(18:16):
with ideological dogs in this. This seems to be across
the board. The best I can get it comes from
the Catholic News Agency. Violence against Catholic priests in Nigeria
continues to increase, especially in the eastern part of the country.
According to report by the NGO International Society for Civil
Liberties and Rule of Law this is called inter Society,
published in August and updated this week, at least fifteen

(18:37):
priests were kidnapped between January and September alone. According to
Catholic Bishop's Conference of Nigeria, at least one hundred and
forty five priests have been kidnapped, eleven have been murdered,
and four remain missing since twenty fifteen. However, Inner Society
claims the raalty is much worse. According to its counts,
at least two hundred and fifty Catholic clergy have been attacked,
in addition to three hundred and fifty clergy from other denominations,

(18:59):
and in the case of the unaliving of Christians there,
it's said to be up into the numbers of maybe
half a million people, which is a massive number obviously,
so we as Christians at the very least need to
be aware of this. You know, if you're looking at

(19:21):
the camera, you can see this cut on my hands.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
It's funny, you know.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
I was in the youth group the other night and
my boys stopping, Hey, what's wrong with your hand? Or
the day my wife said, did you wash that? This
happened at the gym? It was actually cleaning up after
my workout. Was the worst injury I've gotten longtime. Price God, did.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
You clean that like that? Kind of not as well
as I should have.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
And it's this tiny little cuts and you know what,
I can feel it throughout my body. I mean, it's
not this bad, but man, when it hurts, it hurts,
and it's just the back of my hand. I think
that there is a tendency to view, because we're busy,
because we get concentrated on America, to view the rest

(20:05):
of the world as sort of the back of our
hand in some ways. And I don't think we can
afford to do that. That's not what Jesus did. Jesus
is the king of the entire universe, prayed to all
of us. Maybe it's helpful to look at this from
a personal perspective, you know, not organizations, not countries, but persons.
We looked at the pastor This woman is talking about

(20:27):
what happened to her Christian husband and two children.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Her children were.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Aged three and three years old and ten months and
this is tough to hear. So she's weeping in a
hospital bed and here's what she is explaining as she's weeping.

(21:00):
She told what happens to her husband and two children,
again aged three and ten months.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
They were.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
Brutally their lives brutally ended right in front of her
and her only surviving child's age seven. They were left
for dead, their hands were chopped off. And this is
the persecuted church in Nigeria in her experience. Remember we

(21:34):
talked at the beginning of the segment, we talked about
Apostle Paul comparing the thumb to the eye or the mouth.
You may think the thumb is unimportant in comparison to
the say heart, but again the thumb may say to
the hearts, try feeding yourself without me. Well, she doesn't
have hands. Her seven year old no longer has hands.

(22:00):
And as I think about this and this silly scar
on my back of my hand, to think about the
scars through Jesus his hands, and I think about Jesus
saying I went to the cross for that, and so
I think about my reluctance to send special forces down

(22:21):
there to stop this. And then I imagine Jesus Christ
going to the cross knowing what was going to happen
to him. Knowing the pain he was going to go through,
fully god fully human, but having at that point surrendered
aspects of deity, such as his ability to instantly have

(22:43):
an army of ten thousand angels come down.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
And utterly obliterate.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
The religious technocrats who were sending it to the cross,
the Roman troops who were backing them up on that.
I mean, ten angels could have done the job, and
he didn't. And Jesus is looking at this and watching
this and saying, I paid for that with my blood.

(23:11):
We knew this was going to happen, wars and rumors
of wars. I was whipped, I was scourged, I was
on the cross all day to pay for this. And
you're reluctant to use the much you've been given to
go and stop this. He who extends mercy will receive mercy.

(23:33):
If you're not extending mercy, do not expect mercy. If
you're not extending grace, don't expect it. Forgive us a truspasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us. If you're
not forgiving truspasses, understand that you may not have them
forgiven against you. And to who much is given, much
as expected. We've been given a lot here. So in

(23:55):
this case, they burned this his house in church. They
killed over one hundred and fifty members of his congregation.
This from Nigeria.

Speaker 7 (24:07):
So I am Reverendya Kupumutan. I am a pastor with
the Church of Christ in Nations. But this is my village.
This is Manga. Manga is in Bocos Local Government, Plato
State of Nigeria. What really happened here is not only
in this village that we're affected by this crisis. We're
affected by more than eleven villages, which my younger happens

(24:30):
to be one. And in these villages it is this
network of attack that was conducted. Is the killing, the
meaming of people, slaughtering them and bonding of their houses
and their footstocks and properties.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
And he's standing in front of a burnt house.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
The walls survived, the rufous God God knows how many
people's lives were taken in that house. And he's addressing us.
He is addressing us respectfully, not in attempt to shame.
He's in forming us. And now we know there's that
phrase when you know more, you can do better. Okay,

(25:08):
we know more we could do.

Speaker 7 (25:09):
More so by now, by the record, we have already collected.
We have over one hundred and fifty people that I
killed in one day, that is on the twenty fourth
of December. That is a Christmas was just not a
Christmas to us like to celebrate. It was a morning
Christmas because of what happened to us. As you could
see understanding here, this is my house in my village,

(25:30):
and I lost everything that was in the house, bought food, stuff,
clothing and whatever. It was a punish house. What it
is boned and even the church, the studies by my
side was born and the pastorium is bonned. Everything about us, yeah,
in this village is confused. As you can see that
everything is destroyed, but we can't God that some of
us are life and at the course of this like

(25:51):
me and now I lost seven of my brothers at
the course of this crisis that happened.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
I've met pastures from Nigeria.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
Were pastor from Nigeria at our church about six weeks ago,
and he shared his story about what he's doing down
there and how they're bringing.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
The Body of Christ together.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
There was at the site they're building a university, a
tree they used to unalive people in the tribal warfare,
and they thought of turning it down, and instead they
have sanctified. Well, they have asked God to sanctify, to
cleanse it, to cleanse that site, and they keep it
as a reminder. We as Christians have a responsibility to
hurt when the rest of the body of Christ hurts,

(26:33):
and we have a responsibility to at least debate what
we must be doing in Nigeria. If it's limited to prayer, okay,
but we've been given a whole lot, and I don't
know that it should be limited to prayer. And there's
more we can talk about down there. There are people
who are willing to go. Are military. There are military
members who are ready to go. I know some of

(26:55):
them who want to go.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
End this.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
It drives them crazy to see Christians abused in this
way and does he just not even just Christians, but
to see people being slaughtered this way. And they're the
same people who have said, look, you know what, if
I'm ordered to go back to the Middle East, I will.
I'm so sick of it, but I'll go. And in
the case of Nigeria, it's sort of a different story
with a lot of my friends who've served saying, you
know what I want to go. Maybe we could raise

(27:21):
money and go on our own.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
You know.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
I think about that guy, machine Gun Preacher, remember him.
He used to be a horrible enforcer for a drug
dealers and ended up moving down to Africa and using
his skills because he came to the Lord.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
He uses the.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Skills to defend people now and to preach, and to
make sure preaching a lot happens. There's a movie called
Machine Gun Preacher about him and God, just God, God,
God equips.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Him to go do that.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
And God equipped my friend Tim Krukshank to be a
Navy seal. He was attached to the seal teams as
a medic on three different deployments or corman as they say.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Tim says medic. But he came back. There was a lot,
such as.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Rebonding with his family. His first job back here was
as a buds instructor. But he never gave up this
dream of starting a coffee company.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
He did that.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
He was a medical assistant, physician's assistants until he got fired.
Now I had no patient complaints, no mistakes, nothing like that.
He was spending too much time keeping his wife alive. Now,
I think some of this said to do with the
fact that Tim shamed a doctor for trying to let
to trying to force him to let his wife die.

(28:28):
That's what I think. Tim Znimbers said that that. This
is what I think. Still never gave up on the
coffee company. Still to this day, the coffee company's at
this precipice because of loyalty from you. And if you've
tried bone Frog but you've not yet subscribed, you're really
missing out on number one, a discount fifteen percent off
subscription coffee for life. You're missing out on a consistent

(28:48):
connection to God country team ends. You're not really involved
in helping us push bone Frog one step further. A
physical location. Tim's been looking at this selfishly. I hope
he does it in Idahos Selfishly. I hope it's a
place just up the street. But man, I'd love to
have a meet up there. That's Tim's job to build
the company. Your job to decide if you love the coffee.

(29:09):
But if you like it, will you upgrade to a
subscription today? Heed over to Bonefrog cooffee dot com, slash
Todd use promo code Todd to get fifteen percent off
subscription coffee, and if you're just now deciding to join
God Country team through bone Frog, you get ten percent

Todd when you use promo code Todd. What we've seen

(29:29):
in Nigeria happens from time to time in a fallen world.
And one of the great cliches and questions that people
will ask is, if you believe in God, how would
your God?

Speaker 2 (29:40):
Why does your God allow.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
This to go on?

Speaker 1 (29:44):
And over time, my answer to that has evolved to
one that I think is a lot more accurate, which
is it wasn't his idea, This isn't how he designed things.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
We chose it.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
When Adam and Eve said yeah, yeah, oh yeah, God
said don't eat from the tree of the knowledge of
good and evil. Yeah, But you know, the snake was
so persuasive to Eve, and then she was persuasive to Adam,
and Adam didn't spiritually lead enough. For instance, do you
think that was the first conversation she had with the
snake or do you think Adam is the spiritual leader
of his family may have come and said, hey, you know,

(30:18):
I don't like it talking to that snake. A snake
seems shifty to me. I've got a bad feeling about
that snake. You know, there's a couple that could have
talked about that. Yeah, or better yet, they could have
gone to God and said, hey, you know this snake
and this snake seems pretty shifty to us. Should we
be spending any time with the snake? And then God
could have settled things with the snake, and man, we'd
be in a different stead if we existed. And if

(30:41):
we did, man, it'd be in the new Heaven of
the new Earth, walk home with God. That was not
God's idea. You know, I know we've had kids in
our lives. Those of us are parents that our kids
go out and do things and they'll come.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
Back and go, why is this happening? We didn't tell
you to do this?

Speaker 3 (30:58):
Wait?

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Why are you angry at us?

Speaker 1 (30:59):
We didn't tell you to do these things? Why are
you blaming us? So God can say, this isn't my design.
I didn't decide. I didn't want you to have these
sin problems, but we do. We live in this broken world,
So why does it hurt us? Why does it hurt
our conscious? Because we're designed for perfection. You know, this

(31:20):
residue of the way God designed us. We're designed for perfection.
We were reading the Bible the other night, My wife
and I were reading Genesis. Were starting at the beginning,
and there's a time in Genesis where God changes the
lifespan of people. It becomes frustrated. Okay, I said, I'm
gonna lawyer your lifespan. And I've read the Bible many times,
clearly so of you. And there's these times where people

(31:42):
live eight hundred years, nine hundred years. And that used
to puzzle me. How could that be that they lived
eight hundred and nine hundred years? And then it all
makes sense. They're the fresh out of the garden. There,
the first generation, second, third, fourth, fifth, generations away from creation,
they've still got that Creation was pumping. And then of
course God came un limited the lifetimes. So when you're

(32:04):
that close to God's it makes sense because you're closer
to his design.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
This is so far away from his design. Why does
God allow it? Because God allows liberty, life.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Liberty, pursuits of happiness, and that means also life, liberty,
and pursuit of evil. It's a choice, and we in
America are choosing right now to say that really sucks
for you thoughts and prayers, and that's not to denicate prayer,
because or denigrated prayer is everything. Prayer is an extension

(32:39):
of ourselves, an extension of caring. But while we have
an economy here that is being created into something where
young people will probably never afford to buy houses by
design and you will own nothing and you will be happy.
While we have an economy here where we are seeing
big companies aligned with big governments in the China model

(33:03):
destroying what used to be a middle class way of
earning a retirement, which was the home as a nest egg.
Is that's being done. We're exporting tons of money to Ukraine.
Have you noticed that President Trump did not stop that
We're exporting tons of money to Israel and Hamas and yes,
praise God for the ceasefire, Praise God for the end
of killing.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
Good job, President Trump.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
Does anyone think that's going to end or that we're
just not going to send money over there anymore? We
have nothing for Nigeria. I think God will judge this.
This is a pastor and this actually we have been
able to identify this guy. But he's talking about something

(33:44):
that is a major frustration for a lot of us
in regards to a comparison between what's going on between
Hamas and Israel and what's going on in Nigeria. So
here he is talking about Palestine versus Nigeria.

Speaker 8 (34:01):
The world and you want to see a better world.
Your interest is not just free Palestine. I mean there
are more people dying in Nigeria than are dying in Palestine.
I can tell you that last year, over five hundred
thousand Christians were killed in Nigeria, just in one year,

(34:21):
and nobody is protesting. The activists are not saying anything
for me that simple Christians in the North of Nigeria.
Christians are being killed daily because the Islamic militants don't
want Christians to exist in the North of Nigeria. They
want to see a world where there are no Christians
at all, and they want to conquer not just Nigeria.

(34:45):
They want to conquer Africa, they want to conquer Europe,
and they want to conquer America. The younger generation who
want to live in a better world must speak out today.
And I'm calling on all advocates of do you want.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
To go and do something and truly Islam has at
its core political conquest, military conquest. You know, even Google's
AI admits that Mohammad was a military leader. The false
prophet was a military leader, and he was militant, and

(35:23):
they tried to pretend it was all for equity, which
was We did a show on this last week to
remember this where Google's AI pretends that Muhammad was doing
that in pursuit of equity. But they are noticing our
immigration policies. They are exploiting it, They're exploding it in
the UK. The UK is almost gone, no longer exists anymore,

(35:47):
and we are importing people into our countries who are
doing this in Nigeria, maybe not the specific people, but
the specific beliefs that drive this. With the extraordinary difference
here between the Christian faith and the Islamic faith. Here
there are people who end their days having gone out

(36:09):
and murdered let's say five people, and they go home
and they say, we're serving God. Job well done today
in Nigeria. So we can have all the concerns about
our money in Israel and is it being used to
target civilians, and we should have those concerns, and we

(36:30):
should have that oversight and we should ask those questions,
And there's nothing wrong with asking those questions. Even if
Ben Shapiro says it's anti Semitic to ask those questions,
he's wrong. No, we're giving you money. How are you
using it? Is it just to stop Amas? And at
the same time, we need to be able to ask
our state departments, Okay, we're headed to the Caribbean. Truly,

(36:53):
are we really going to invade Venezuela? And are you
going to ask us to believe this is different then
when we invaded Iraq and it turned out to be
something in regard to oil. We should this is about
drugs coming into our country. Are there things that we
could do other than war? But we're positioning these ships

(37:13):
and maybe this is President Trump negotiating.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
This is what he does.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
He goes in super hard. This is my position, this
is how he does it. This is the art of
the deal. Pray that it's the art of the deal.
Is this gonna gudf You get Maduro to say, okay, okay, okay,
I will crack down on the cartels. I will make
sure they never leave our shores with drugs. I'll let
my police go out and handle this, that they can
take drugs at every other country but the United States

(37:39):
and Mexico and Canada. Nothing in North America. I pray
to God that's it. Where are we in Nigeria? Where
should we be?

Speaker 2 (37:51):
You tell me? You tell me where should we be?

Speaker 3 (37:57):
You know?

Speaker 2 (37:58):
One of the things we should do when we.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
Can, we should align our values with the way we
purchase things, and the way that we purchase something as
simple as soap bespeaks our values. If you're not using
Alan soaps, I hope there's a reason, and I hope
it is that you tried it and you say, hey,
you know what, Todd all due respects, I don't like
the sense, I don't even like the uncented, or I
don't like it it comes from the state of California,

(38:21):
or I don't like kids or autistic or something. I
hope there's a really good reason, because if you haven't
tried it, then I would just ask you to do that.

Speaker 2 (38:30):
Number One, this soap is what matters.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
It's made in America by a family, and they have
been doing this for three generations. It's their pride and joy.
That's how they provide for each other. Number two, it
has no chemicals in it. It is one hundred percent
natural and it is made as gentle as possible. It's
the most gentle soap you could ever have because Alan's
body can't stand anything that's harsh. He's got some real

(38:53):
structural problems and challenges in health. His brother Ian has
I think, different challenges. He's also autistic. Well, Alan's nonverbal,
Ian is verbal. And by trying this soap, you give
you an opportunity to shift gears away from companies that
are chemical based, that are offshoring, that are DEI into
a company that is working with a family, two families

(39:14):
working together to provide this, and you provide jobs for
people like Ian and Allen, and hopefully we can get
back to hiring some more people after this tough time
at Allan's is over with John, who started the company,
going to the Lord.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
I got an update from John yesterday. It appears the
doctors say that they expect.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
Him to go to the Lord sometime around April of
next year, and he's handing the business off to his wife.
She will run it and continue the Allan's legacy. So
if you haven't yet tried it, I hope there's a reason.
If not, go to Alan soaps dot com. Slash todd,
and if you've tried it and loved it, I hope
there's a reason you haven't yet subscribed, such as I
don't know what that would be. But if you haven't

(39:50):
yet subscribed and you're ready to do that, then go
get it done. It's Alan soaps dot com, slash todd.
That's Alan Soaps dot com slash todd. We have a
lot of instability, clear and it is some of it
is purposeful. I was just this morning listening. I was
just I put myself through this torture of listening to
to local news when I come in, so it's asim

(40:12):
a cast off kkes l Y tv UH and it
runs on what is it one oh seven seven FM
over here at our part of the country or what
it won something one one seven And I'm driving in
and listen.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
They were talking.

Speaker 1 (40:24):
About weather here and it's the last nice day we're
gonna have where it's both sunny and warm, and then
they talked about some nonprofits and then boom boom, breaking news.
Now we cut live to Washington, DC. You can see
here a shot in the background of a crane charing
off one of the walls of the White House. Critics

(40:45):
say this construction project is moving too quickly. They demand
more accountability and transparency. The two hundred and fifty million
dollar project proceeds during a time of a government shutdown,
where government workers have been un able to have their
paychecks arrive on time. President Trump says he has no
idea when the government shut down. My end, I thought,

(41:06):
he's the remind us of this has been paid for.
My perfect owners. Now onto sports.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
I'm grim milestone.

Speaker 1 (41:14):
So local news cuts live breaking news. They're still building
stuff because it's unprecedented, because the White House has never
been worked on before. Aside from the fact that I
think it was Taft who built the West wing, it

(41:34):
wasn't there then it was there Nixon who put in
a bowling alley, one of the other presidents put in
a swimming pool. Brock Hussin and Obama put in a
basketball court. Nixon put in a bowling alley, Hillary Rodham, Clinton,
and William Jefferson blythe Clinton the third had a remodel

(41:58):
of the of the family section, the residential section, And
oddly they didn't tell us what that remodel included. I
don't know, sex dungeons, something like that. Secret tunnels, cash lockers.
So it's unprecedented. All of it's unprecedented. And we're at

(42:21):
this point of instability that is being pushed purposely. We's
tarded talking about Antifa, that's being pushed purposely. Now when
there's this time of unsettlements in our worlds, in our
country and people are trying to push the Cold War
further and further and further towards hot is this the
time that we're going to go take a military engagement

(42:42):
and having one quarter of our naval assets now going
to the Caribbean, Is.

Speaker 2 (42:46):
This the time for this? And look, I'm open to it.

Speaker 1 (42:50):
Because I will tell you, I know the cartels work
with Antifa. I know they work hand in hand. They
have the same common goal. Antifa gets probably money from
the cartels.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
They get help. Cartels get help.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
From Antifa by destabilizing the cities and keeping law enforcement
out from deporting their soldiers. Every time Antifa goes and
blocks up a CPB location like in Chicago and Broadview
in Portland's in Texas. Every time they busy CPB with
having defend themselves against terrorist attacks. These are cartel operatives

(43:26):
who are not being captured. They're running supply chains through
our country. We have literal military supply chains in our
country all the way up into Seattle, from the southern
border up to Portland up to Los Angeles. They have
Democrats who are obsessed with protecting all this. So I'm
entirely open to this. Democrats aren't going to shut them
down to the cities. So if President Trump is going

(43:47):
to make the case that we're going to go to war,
I want the case made.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
Now.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
Look, I'm going to call out President Trump when I
agree with him, which is ninety percent of the time,
and where I disagree that our own attacks we've done
these are going to continue to do these without the
declaration of war. We're moving these ships down there, We're
moving our assets down there. Shouldn't we at least say why?
And if we're going to go invade there, it better

(44:14):
come with the declaration of war, it better come with
respect for the American people. Of course, the left is
saying this is just President Trump shooting people from this
guy because he likes to shoot people from the sky.
They always forget the fact that Barack Obama bragged about
being good at killing people, including American citizens, with attacks
from the sky.

Speaker 2 (44:32):
Remember that.

Speaker 1 (44:34):
So I'll show you what Marco Ruby said the other
day in response to accusations that this is all about
President Trump just wanting to go after people. I'll show
you that in just one second. All of this instability
should have you thinking about where your money's at. Because
there's great things happen in the economy, of course, and
then there's some pretty scary things happening in the economy.
Of course, AI eating tech jobs. They didn't expect it

(44:57):
to happen this quickly. AIS going to be eating tech
jobs that are going to start to become managerial.

Speaker 2 (45:03):
It's already become legal departments getting fired.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
Microsoft laid off a ton of people from their licensing division.
I'm here to tell you those were quarter million to
three hundred and fifty thousand.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Dollars per year jobs. That's before you get to stock.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
Amazon responded to this article the other day in the
Washington Post Funny owned by of course no it was
at New York Times New York Times, saying that Amazon
expects to be able to hire what six hundred thousand
fewer people over a decade.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Wow, this through AI and then of.

Speaker 1 (45:32):
Course the specters of wars, the wars and rumors of wars.
So with your retirements coming up, let's say that you're
a year from retirement. Man, I hope you're locked. If
you're five, ten, even fifteen years from retirement, you should
get a second opinion right now, and make sure you're
not exposed to a ton of risk. You should get
a second opinion right now. Make sure that your account's

(45:54):
being actively managed. I don't know how you live thinking
about buy and hold during a period of time like this.

Speaker 2 (46:00):
I can't.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
And at Bower Capital Management, they actively manage every portfolio
which can reduce risk and volatility, and risk management is
their obsession. So Zach Abraham is the chief investment officer.

Truck twenty five. THAT'SH two nine eight. So the leftist

(46:45):
course saying, and frankly Marco Rubil, I mean, pardon me,
Ran Paul, that these attacks are suspect because we don't
know the people on the boats. We don't know what
they're actually doing. President Trump says, they're doing this. I
happen to believe they're doing this. Yes, I happened to
believe our military these exactly who the cartel numbers are.
I happened to believe. We've been tracking this for a

(47:06):
long time. We have a very good map of.

Speaker 2 (47:09):
Who these people are.

Speaker 1 (47:10):
If I've talked to some friends of mine, retired special Forces.
They know where they're trafficking, they know their highways, they
know the ports they use. If we wanted to in
our country, we could shut this down pretty violently. Instead,
we're going into the cities and removing a ton of
their soldiers. So Mark or Rubio was talking about this
challenge that we're simply going out and shooting back boats

(47:32):
willie nilly.

Speaker 9 (47:32):
And that was in a submarine, right, it was we
attacked a submarine and that was a drug carrying submarine
built specifically for the transportation of massive amounts of drugs.
Just so you understand, this was not an innocent group
of people.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
I don't know too many people that have submarines.

Speaker 3 (47:54):
And.

Speaker 9 (47:56):
That was an attack on a drug carrying loaded up.

Speaker 3 (48:00):
So pardon me.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
That was President Trump speaking clearly not Mark Ruby is
sitting next to Mark Rubio, and they have submarines.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Custom built for this that we've captured.

Speaker 1 (48:09):
We have brought the shore, we have searched through, and
Mark Rubial is full on sponsoring this. Mark Rubio probably
the most active Secretary of State we've ever had.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
But declare it.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
If we're going to do this thing, let's do this thing,
Let's do it constitutionally.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
Let's do it legally.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
Let's do it the way that God can bless God
is a god of law and order, not chaos. We
have a system for this. Let's get back to the system,
because then God can bless these activities. God can bless
us defending lives if they are truly innocent lives. There's
such a thing as just war. God will not defend

(48:50):
cannot bless us funding any form of genocide. And so
we have to ask the questions, Wait a minute, how
many kids in Gaza? We have to Then we have
to be able to find people we can trust to
give us the answer.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
We have to.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Prayerfully consider what role, if anyone, should have in Nigeria
because Jesus went to the cross for all of these activities,
and I, for one, don't want to get back into
the business of saying, Hey, Jesus, we know you went
to the cross one time. How about again? Because we
just can't seem to stop sinning. This is a Todd

(49:30):
Hermit show. Please go, be well, be strong, be kind,
Please go, make every effort to walk in the light
of Christ. And I hope that you, like me, get
to have some time with your beloved family.
