Did you hear? There is a new Joint Chiefs chairman replacing Mark Milley. He was confirmed by a majority of Republican Senators after being held up by Tommy Tuberville for quite some time. Surely he must be a bipartisan appointee. Think again... Jesse Kelly has the receipts on CQ Brown. Speaking of receipts, the United States may not be able to pay its debt. Carol Roth joins Jesse to discuss the latest move by the Fed. Plus, appearances from Karol Markowicz and Lucas Miles.

Speaker 1 (00:02):
We have a new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. We'll
talk about that in military matters. We're going to discuss
the future of the country, if you will. And why
do we have a new climate core of young people? Oh,
that's coming up on I'm right. I need to stop

(00:25):
reading history books, specifically because we're about to go into
military and our new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. I
need to stop reading World War two history books. I
do this. Every dude does this. I don't know why
we do this. I love them, but what hits me,
what floors me, is the unwavering patriotism of that generation

(00:47):
of young men and how committed they were to fighting
for this country that they loved, and how universal that
was across this country. Story after story after story you
read about young men crawling over broken glass to get
into the military to fight for America, lying on their

(01:08):
military entrance forms when they didn't think they could get in,
lying about their age, their parents wouldn't sign them up.
They're forging things on documents. Multiple I don't mean one,
multiple stories of young men committing suicide during World War
Two because they weren't allowed to join the military. Imagine

(01:29):
that level of patriotism across the country where if you
can't go fight and maybe die for your country, you
kill yourself. Now, the reason I need to stop reading
this stuff is I juxtaposed that with what's currently happening
in this country and specifically with the military, and what
it does to me is it just brings it home.

(01:49):
It makes everything so crystal clear exactly how far we've
fallen and exactly where we are. Because this generation of
patriotic men are most patriotic young men. They're not crawling
over broken glass to join the military. They're crawling over
broken glass to avoid it. They don't want to be

(02:13):
part of the military. It's look, you don't have to
take my word for it. The recruiting numbers speak for themselves.
Young men do not want to be part of this
military right now. And why would they. Look, let's talk
about the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, why would they?
Tommy Tuberville has been making all kinds of news Republican
Senator Tommy Tuberville for blocking Well, what they've been saying

(02:37):
is he's been doing they're lying, is he's blocking generals
and amirls from getting promotions. That's not what he's doing.
What he's doing is he's blocking unanimous consent. It's called
what is that. He's blocking automatic promotions, essentially blanket promotions
where instead of this guy having to come before the
Senate and get a yes or no vote, you're approved,

(02:58):
you're not approved. Instead, they just want to bring you
a whole basket of names and say, here are all
the guys we want to promote, and normally all the
Senators say yeah, yeah, it sounds good because senators are
completely useless. Tommy Tuberville happens to be a Senator who
uses his power. Praise God for him. Because of the
military funding abortions, Tommy Tuberville has stepped up and said,

(03:18):
as long as the military does this, it's wrong, it's illegal.
There's no more unanimous consent. He's been blocking it. Now,
keep in mind, the only thing he even has the
power to block is this unanimous consent thing where they
bring all the names in one big basket. Chuck Schumer
has and has had the power to bring any individual

(03:39):
name up for a vote in front of the Senate.
You know this because he did so yesterday.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
I have just filed cloture on the Chairman of the
Joint chiefs of Staff, the Commandant of the Marine Corps,
and the Army.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Chief of Staff.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
These men should have already been confirmed. They should already
be serving in their new positions. The Senate should not
have to go through procedural hoops just to please one
brazen and misguided senator. And the abortion policy that Senator
Tuberville abhors will remain in place. Senator Tuberville will have

(04:18):
accomplished nothing, but the harm he is doing to the
military and their families remains and unfortunately continues for hundreds
of others.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Harm.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
The harm he's doing to the military and their families,
harm he's doing harm. Well, I've got news for you
and really everybody, And this is difficult. This will be
difficult to accept for people who are unfamiliar with things
going on in the military, maybe people who didn't serve
and kind of have this lofty view of all these

(04:53):
generals and admirals. Most of those people suck, and most
of those people should be nowhere near the military. And
most of those people their very presence in the military
actually hampers the military. In fact, probably the best thing
you could do for the military instead of promoting all
those people would be to fire all of them. Would
you lose one or two good eggs in there, Oh,

(05:15):
of course, But for the most part you'd be losing
people like, Oh, I don't know Charles Q. Brown c Q.
Brown Junior. If you will, he is the new Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs. If you want to know why
young men in the United States of America don't want
to join the military anymore, take a look at the
man who now runs it.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
You can't let it just be happenstance that brings in
the diversity where it be race, gender, ethnic background, sexual orientation,
so background. You really got to spend some time thinking
about it, because you made this an opportunity if you
don't really spend some time looking at the slate of
candids and then asking some hard questions. And that's an
aspect of me as a chief of staff when I

(05:58):
sit down with Secretary Bret. We just had a conversation
about this yesterday as we're looking at some key positions,
you know, who are diverse candidates and are we making
sure we are grooming them so they have the opportunity.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Life and death young men and women dying and dying
in horrible ways those are the stakes of military accomplishment
and failure. And the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff opened the brags on videotape how he sits
down to choose people for critical leadership positions, and he

(06:34):
does so based on skin color. You see that young
man in Nebraska. He's on his high school football team.
He's a junior this year. He loves World War Two
movies and documentaries, maybe even books like I do. His
dad's fought in Vietnam. He's always had a dream to
put on the uniform, go see what he's made of,

(06:56):
fight for his country. That young man, that junior in
high school in Nebraska, that's the kind of young man
who runs the Medal of Honor one day, charging up
the hill to carry his buddies to safety. But you
know what that young man is not going to do.
He's not going to join to serve underneath somebody who
talks about Saint George Floyd this way.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
As the commander of Pacific Air Forces, a senior leader
in our Air Force, and an African American. Many of
you may be wondering what I'm thinking about the current
events surrounding the tragic.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Death of George Floyd.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
Here's what I'm thinking about, thinking about how full I
am with emotion, not just for George Floyd, but the
many African Americans that have suffered the same fate as
George Floyd. I can't fix centuries of racism in our country,
nor what can I fix decades that discrimination may have
impacted members of our air force. I'm thinking about how

(07:51):
I can make improvements personally, professionally, and institutionally so that
all erring both to day tomorrow appreciate the value of
diversity and conserving an environment where they can reach their
full potential. I want them wisdom and notch e lead,
participate in and listen to necessary conversations on racism, diversity,
and inclusion.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
That young man in Nebraska is just going to go
do something else. And this is why you think we
have a recruiting crisis, But it's actually so much worse.
It's not just that we're not coming close to making
our numbers for recruiting. The numbers we're bringing in they
aren't people you want in the military, because the ones
you want in the military, they don't want to join

(08:36):
and serve under that are great young men and women
still joining to serve absolutely and you should say a
prayer for them every day because of the state of
their leadership. But there aren't near enough of them. And
you know what really cracks me up about all this is, boy,
Republicans love to talk about woke these days, don't they.
They love to complain about it. And you know what
they really really love. They love to complain about it

(08:58):
in the military. It's a very safe thing to do.
Even most Democrats kind of don't want all this stuff
in the military. So Republicans love to get up in
front of the camera and say, ah, military is too
well drag Queen's story hour, this is ridiculous. But you
see that guy's the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
Because the Senate had to vote. Would you like to

(09:19):
know how many Republicans stood against the new chairman chairman
of Diversity hire eleven eleven of them, all the names
you know, Cruz, Pauly Schmidt, Vance, Ron Johnson, etc. All
the names you know. You see all the other Republican
senators who love to complain about woke this and woke that,

(09:41):
and there's no place for this in the military. They
all lined up to vote for more of it yesterday.
And one more thing young men don't want to do.
And again your opinion on this, my opinion on this
really doesn't really matter. This is the truth. That same
young man and in Nebraska, he doesn't dream of putting

(10:04):
on the uniform to go die for Ukraine.

Speaker 5 (10:10):
And as President Biden Secretary Austin has said many many
times over, we the United States will continue to provide
support to Ukraine for as long as it takes.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
As long as it takes. We had Mike Pence going
out there yesterday talking about young men and women having
to go to Ukraine if this thing fails, Lindsey Graham,
Tom Cotton talking about sending Ukraine more missiles. We need
to ramp this thing up more and more and more
and more young men. That young man in Nebraska, whatever

(10:42):
you think about the Russia Ukraine disaster, he doesn't want
to go die over there. And lastly, and I just
believe me, this matters. I'm not going to say people
in the military overwhelmingly care about politics, because they don't.
I didn't. I wasn't very political when I was in.
But they do care about the commander in chief. We
were very very aware of who the president was how

(11:04):
he spoke about us, how he spoke period. And in fact,
I can't imagine serving in the military while the commander
in chief gets up in front of other world leaders
and it goes like this.

Speaker 6 (11:18):
Of the Federative Republic of Brazil, a company five, the
director of General of the International Label Organization.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
They will drive our clean energy transition.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
They will keep the global supply CAG supply chain secure.

Speaker 7 (11:32):
Can you hear me, President Biden?

Speaker 8 (11:35):
This is an historical moment.

Speaker 7 (11:37):
For Brazil and for the US President Biden?

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Can you hear me? You can? Yes?

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Good, it's got stiffed on the handshake. All right. All
that may have made you uncomfortable, but I am right.

(12:06):
Let's talk about putting our money where our morals are.
This is a very difficult thing to do in many ways,
isn't it Where you spend and don't spend your money?
Because corporate America is so political in that it matters
where you spend and don't spend matters. The credit card
thing is something that has eluded us forever because you
give to these big bank credit cards, and you're giving
to Black Lives Matter, you're giving to all the worst

(12:30):
left wing communist protests. You can possibly imagine that's what
you're giving to when you give to the big bank
credit cards. Until now, now we have coin coign. What
are they Well, they give to organizations that share your values.
So we're talking. You get a credit card with unlimited

(12:51):
cash rewards that supports your values, and you get to
stop supporting BLM with every purchase. How does that sound
sound like a plan?

Speaker 8 (13:00):
It is?

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Go right now, coin dot com slash jesse and sign up.
Let's put our money where our morals are. We all
use credit cards, coin dot com slash jesse. Go to
coin dot com slash disclosures for more information. We'll be
back today.

Speaker 6 (13:23):
We decided to leave our policy interest rate unchanged and
to continue to reduce our securities holdings. Looking ahead, we're
in a position to proceed carefully in determining the extent
of additional policy firming that may be appropriate.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Okay, that's a long bunch of finance nerd ways of
saying that they didn't raise the rates. Which is good, Right,
it's good. We should be happy. Let's ask Carol if
we should be happy. The great Carol Roth joins us now,
author of the great new book that's going Gangbusters. You
will own nothing. If you want to know what these
wef globalist freaks are doing to you, go buy the book.

Speaker 8 (13:58):
Carol.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
Okay, they didn't. That's a good thing, right, There's no
way that can be a bad thing.

Speaker 9 (14:04):
I love how you sort of flipped in that I'm
a finance nerd, and there I'll take it, Jessie.

Speaker 7 (14:08):
I'm okay with my nerdy moniker. I am a nerd.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
Listen.

Speaker 7 (14:14):
I think this was a.

Speaker 9 (14:16):
Prudent thing to do, But I don't know that it
is the end of the Fed's hiking cycle, and I'm
not sure that they're going to be able to handle
what's ahead, because even though we have a slower growth
rate in inflation, we still have sticky inflation. And sometimes
correlation isn't causation, So a lot of what we're seeing

(14:40):
I don't think has actually been impacted by FED policy.
In fact, coming out of fifteen years of highly historic
suppression of the interest rates and nine trillion dollars added
to their balance sheets, and they're messing and manipulating with
the market, I don't really think think that, you know,

(15:00):
what they have done has even begun to work its
way through the economy. Nor do I think they have
addressed things like the fiscal deficits, which they can't address directly,
but they could certainly wag a finger at the president
in Congress, which they refuse to do, nor our energy policy,
because while they can print dollars, they can't print oil.

(15:22):
So you know, the a pause was definitely warranted in
my opinion. And maybe we'll give the debt and deficit
a little breathing room in terms of refinancing twenty five
bases points worth.

Speaker 7 (15:34):
But you know, we're not out of the woodwork yet.

Speaker 9 (15:37):
And certainly, in this thesis of a soft landing, you know,
will they be able to get inflation down to what
it is they want without tipping the economy into a recession.
I don't think that we're out of the woods on
either side of that.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
Speaking of soft landing, he brought that up yesterday. Here
he was, here, he was.

Speaker 6 (15:59):
I've always thought that the soft landing was a plausible outcome,
that there was a path really to a soft landing.
I've thought that, and I've said that since we lifted off,
it's also possible that the path is narrowed and it's widened. Apparently,
ultimately this may be decided by factors that are outside

(16:19):
aren't controlled at the end of the day. But I
do think it's I do think it's possible.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Okay, so you know, what is that supposed to mean.
I hate the way all these people talk. I mean,
the soft landing. It's very possible. It's kind of possible.
It might be possible. It's narrowed. Wait, it's widened, but
it's narrowed again. But it's kind of possible. Anyway, We'll
see what happens. What does he say.

Speaker 7 (16:40):
He's saying a whole lot of nothing.

Speaker 9 (16:41):
That was the biggest bunch of gobbledego that I've ever seen.

Speaker 7 (16:46):
You know, it's very interesting.

Speaker 9 (16:47):
As I said on the inflation piece, there are a
couple of issues that I do think are challenge for inflation. Obviously,
the fiscal policy, the debt and the deficits.

Speaker 7 (16:59):
Given the fact that we have these crazy high rates.

Speaker 9 (17:02):
We have seven point six trillion dollars in US government
debt that is coming due that needs to be refinanced
in the next twelve months, and that's going to be
at rates that are hundreds of bases points higher than
what it was a financed debt previously. So that means
hundreds of billions of dollars of incremental interest on top

(17:24):
of what we're already paying for all the debt we've
already incurred, not to mention the fact that we have
these these huge deficits. You know, we're talking about almost
two trillion dollars of the projection from the CBO for
fiscal year twenty twenty three. So the fact that that
continues to need to be financed could end up in
and of itself creating.

Speaker 7 (17:44):
An inflationary cycle.

Speaker 9 (17:46):
And then, Jesse, let's just pray that we don't get
a cold winter, either here in the US or in Europe,
because that's going to send already high oil prices higher,
perhaps to the low or even beyond the levels we
saw last year. So those are the kinds of things
that can continue to stoke inflation. So you know, that's

(18:06):
one piece of the puzzle. And then on the recession side,
you know you have a strong quote unquote strong consumer
in terms of the consumer has been spending on a
regular basis, but their balance sheets are getting wrecked. They've
been dipping into their savings. The personal saving rate is
down below historic levels.

Speaker 7 (18:24):
It's a three point five percent.

Speaker 9 (18:26):
We have record household debt of seventeen point one trillion.
We have student loan desks that are kicking in, but
strangely enough that even if you know, you get some
break in the jobs market, the consumer starts to roll over.
It doesn't necessarily mean we're getting a recession either, because
the government spending is now taking up even more of

(18:48):
the GDP, so that could balance out, and these other
sticky pieces of inflation could you know, kind of counteract
what's happening with the consumer. So we're in very weird,
unprecedented times, and what you might think is a normal
outcome from a certain set of things happening isn't.

Speaker 7 (19:05):
A guarantee here.

Speaker 9 (19:06):
And that's why you're hearing the gobbledegook from the Fed,
because they're panicking. The one thing we're not hearing from
them is, oh, sorry, it's our fault. We helped cause this,
and we feel real badly about it. So we're definitely
not here.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
Yeah, was printing seven trillion dollars wrong? Was that our fault? Mark?
Sorry about that, Carol Roth, Thank you so much. I
appreciate it. Thanks Jeff Caryl Roth, Carol Markowitz, It's a
Carol Knight on the phone. On the phone on the show,
Carol Roth just joined us. Carol marco Wis joins us. Next,

(19:41):
Carole Roth hits with the finance stuff. Carol marko Witz
is going to talk about in New York City, illegal
immigration and other things. Let's talk to you real quick
about your testosterum. Listen, it's in the water. Estrogens are
in the water. Testosterum that wls have been in half
in the last fifty years because we're drinking estrogens. It's

(20:04):
in the plastics, it's in the waters, we are showering
in them. We have to do something to counteract that,
or we're finished as a country. We're not going to
make enough babies. We all need testosterone, men, young and old.
We have to have it. Go start a male vitality
stack from Chalk Today. Give it ninety days and tell
me how you feel. Twenty percent increase in your testosterone

(20:26):
in ninety days. Choq dot com promo code Jesse gets
you thirty five percent off subscriptions. Get a subscription so
you don't have to order every month. Chalk dot Com
promo code Jesse, We'll be back.

Speaker 5 (20:49):
We have to let the word out that when you
come to New York. We're not going to have more
hotel rooms. We don't have capacity, So we have to
also message properly that we're at our limit. If you're
going to leave your country, go somewhere else with The
smarter thing is to apply for asylum before you leave
your country.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
If you're going to leave your country, go somewhere else.
And look, I know it's a simplistic point that has
been made by a thousand people before me, but I'm
a simple man, so I'll just make it too. It
is hilarious how these communists are all pro illegal immigration
right up to the point where they have to deal
with them, right and to the point where they have
to feed them, house them, educate them. Now they all

(21:29):
sound like me joining me now, Carol Markowitz, she is,
of course an author. She wrote a book called Stolen Youth.
It's quite good, if I may say so myself, And
she's a former New Yorker. Carol. Look, everybody's made the point,
so it's not like it's original, But these people really
do not like having to deal with the illegal immigrants
they claim to love.

Speaker 10 (21:48):
Yeah, you know, it's funny because when I saw Kathy Holkle,
she also said yesterday that New York is full and
New York is that capacity, and I was.

Speaker 7 (21:56):
Like, wow, she sounds a lot like Jesse. Maybe she's
watching the show.

Speaker 10 (22:03):
I just feel like, of course, if you say Texas
is full in a capacity, you are a horrible racist.

Speaker 7 (22:08):
When she says it, she's just telling the truth.

Speaker 10 (22:12):
Look, it's funny because I have heard from a lot
of New Yorkers who you know, I self identify as liberals,
and they're saying it's really bad.

Speaker 7 (22:22):
It's really bad. I live near one of these hotels.

Speaker 10 (22:25):
They tell me the garbage is bad, the crime is bad,
like things have just gotten out of control. And the
thing is, what did they believe was happening in the
Texan border towns? What did they think was happening in
these tiny towns as people cross the border illegally and
set up shop there.

Speaker 7 (22:44):
This is New York City. You should have space for everybody, right,
I mean, what did they think was happening in Texas?

Speaker 1 (22:51):
Carol, I'm glad you brought up your liberal New York friends,
because we have. As you mentioned, the crime is really bad,
the trash is really bad. From what I understand from
my New York friends, we have this thing with the schools.
While we have a little clip on it here.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
You see, you know when she came out and to
other members of comers, they have a press conference.

Speaker 8 (23:12):
But what do you think that happen?

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Vote?

Speaker 11 (23:15):
They will never be allowed to walk down the streets together.

Speaker 12 (23:18):
They have destroyed our city and New York especially queens
just walking up and they will.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Not be here again without hearing from us.

Speaker 12 (23:26):
And the people need to stand up and take our
city back, right, take it back, take it back?

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Have family members waiting seven long years in Columbia?

Speaker 8 (23:35):
They found the whole petition?

Speaker 10 (23:37):
What message do you send in to the world?

Speaker 1 (23:40):
Break the law? Probably give you everything free to Piln't
you think that's gonna.

Speaker 13 (23:44):
Stop the border.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
Here?

Speaker 1 (23:47):
Are they mad enough to change how they vote? Are
they as mad as those gentlemen?

Speaker 7 (23:51):
I don't think so, Jesse. You know, I hope so.

Speaker 10 (23:54):
I would love to see that be, you know, the
turning point for New York to climb out of the
place that it's been for the last few years.

Speaker 7 (24:02):
But I just really don't think so.

Speaker 10 (24:04):
I feel like a lot of New Yorkers are not
making the connection that these men are making. So I
know that you know, this about me. But I'm a refugee.
I was born in the Soviet Union. I came to
America as a kid, but there was a process. My
family waited in Italy and waited for permission to be
allowed in.

Speaker 7 (24:20):
Plenty of people were denied.

Speaker 10 (24:22):
People went to Australia, people went to Canada, people went
to Israel, people went to other European countries, and because
America told them no, or because you know, that was
the only country that led them in. But now it's
like you get on a plane and you just come
the guy who was saying, my family's been waiting in
Columbia for seven years. You kind of feel for them
because literally the easier way for them would just be
to take a flight to Mexico and cross the border

(24:43):
and you're in. And you know, it really does shake
up the process when people are not waiting their turn.
I really feel for this man and his family because
they're not getting in because other people are cutting the line,
and that seems to be okay.

Speaker 3 (25:00):
Well.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I find this dynamic within the Democrat Party interesting. Joe
Biden famously visited New York City over the past few days,
went up there to raise some of those new York
City dollars, didn't meet with Eric Adams, didn't go to
any of the illegal immigrant hotels. Adams has been chirping
at him publicly. This is going to cause a problem
for Biden, right.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (25:21):
You know?

Speaker 10 (25:22):
The thing is also that I don't want to give
any credit whatsoever to Mayor Adams or Governor Hockel. They
are responsible for this just as much as any other Democrat.

Speaker 7 (25:32):
What they're saying right now.

Speaker 10 (25:33):
If you listen to Hocle, she's not saying, you know,
let's kick them out. She's not saying they broke a
lot to get here.

Speaker 7 (25:38):
We have to stop this.

Speaker 10 (25:39):
She's not saying let's close the border and really contain
the flow.

Speaker 7 (25:42):
No, she's saying, we need more money.

Speaker 10 (25:44):
We need to legalize basically the people that are here
and give them work permits. And Mayor Adams, who's been
seen as some kind of moderate on immigration, is.

Speaker 7 (25:52):
Literally saying the same thing.

Speaker 10 (25:53):
He's saying, Yeah, they all broke a lot to get here,
but now that they're here, let's give them work permits
and let them work so that we don't have to
take care of them.

Speaker 7 (26:00):
I'm sorry, but that's not moderate. That is far far
left there.

Speaker 10 (26:04):
You know, as you say communists, and I think that
that applies to all of them.

Speaker 7 (26:08):
So is Biden in trouble. No, they're all on the
same team.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Speaking of communists, here's communist John Denver, the head of
the Teachers Union.

Speaker 14 (26:17):
Those same words that you heard in terms of warning segregation,
post brown v. Board of Education, those same words you
hear today. It's not you know, I was. I was
kind of godsmacked when I was on the I was
talking to Southern Property Law Center and they showed me

(26:38):
the same words choice, rental rights, and attempt to divide
parents versus teachers. In that point, it was white parents
versus other parents. But it's the same kind of words.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
Oh yes, same kind of words. Do you have a
great piece up in the New York Post about that
corrupt tag with the crew cut. Don't you care?

Speaker 10 (27:05):
I do you know? The Southern Poverty Law Center. I
cannot be set enough as a scam organization. And whenever
I see anybody who's not a full blown leftist taking
them seriously, I just we have to point it out
and we have to say, like, you are amplifying a
scam organization that supports people like Randy Winegarden. Nobody hurt

(27:26):
black and brown poor children more than Randy Winegarden keeping
schools closed across the country. Nobody, Nobody's had a greater
effect making their lives worse than Randy Winegarten on these kids.
So she could say whatever she wants, she can call
all of us racists.

Speaker 7 (27:41):
We know who the racist is here.

Speaker 10 (27:43):
It's the woman that kept schools closed for the poorest
children in the country. And you know, meanwhile, of course
all the rich kids went to school, or all the
kids in places where Randy Winegarden didn't get to control,
the politicians went to school. It's really only the people
that she was able to control. They they suffered the
most harm because of her.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
Speaking of kids, Carrol, sorry to put you on the
spot here, but your son apparently got in on the
how often men think about the Roman Empire game. He
has a YouTube channel, one minute History, and well here
it is for everybody.

Speaker 15 (28:19):
Hello and welcome back to one minute History. Got a
little bit of a long episode. It's about why do
men think about the Roman Empire all the time? I
hope you enjoyed this video. It's supposed to be very
great and a subscriber like the channel would be pretty great,
as I only have seventeen subscribers. Come on, we've got
to get that bigger. The first reason I think men
think about the Roman Empire all the time because it's

(28:42):
just massive and lasting influence. If you look at the
map right here, it just covers so much land that
all of that influences left. This big influence gave us
a bunch of the things today. Pants, swords which might
be from Iberia, spears which might be from somewhere else,
and just France and England. They battled the Britons and

(29:04):
killed the Celts. The Roman Empire left a massive influence.
I think reason two should be the military. The Roman
Empire had such an amazing military divide into legions, that
military conquered it all. The Roman military was one of
the reasons why men think of the Roman Empire all
the time. It's a big, tough military. I know some

(29:27):
men don't want to be big and tough, but a
lot of men do, and that's why I think they
think of it. For the third and final reason is
the government. The reason I think men think of Rome
because of the government. The government was strong and powerful
and definitely had a lot of influence and was very smart.
Men want to be like this too most of the time.

(29:48):
Being strong, influence, powerful, All of those are great traits
in this picture that portrays the end of the Roman Empire.
I know it's sad this video is ending.

Speaker 8 (29:59):
Two.

Speaker 7 (30:01):
I hope you enjoyed.

Speaker 15 (30:02):
See you in the next video of One Minute History.

Speaker 7 (30:05):
You know you missed the best friend. I don't want
to be big and tough, but most men do. That's
the key part there.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
My favorite part was he's talking about all the influence
and I mean they gave us and his first thing
was pants. They gave us pants. It was great. Anyway,
the kids only got seventeen subscribers. Everybody, it's called One
Minute History. Go give the kids some subscribers. He's way
better than Carol. Thank you, Carol, give my best. You're
awesome stuff. Thanks so much, of course I appreciate it.

(30:36):
All right, let's talk about the church, what's going on
with it. We're gonna talk to Lucas Miles about that next.
Before we talk about that, to do this, let's talk
about family. You see, I try to keep my family
as healthy as humanly possible. The wife does a lot
more of that than me. But I try to keep

(30:57):
my family as healthy as possible. Part of that for
me is Eeden Pure Thunderstorm because it kills viruses in
mold in the air. When I found out just how
much of that crap is in the air, I was
a bit grossed out. I'll be honest. Yes, in your house,
in your office, it's just there's garbage in the air.
We have to clean it. Eeden Pure Thunderstorm will clean

(31:19):
your air for you. Constantly plug it in where you sleep.
You will smell a difference. You can taste a difference
in the air once you finally clean your air. They
have three packs of these for sale two hundred dollars
off edenpuredeals dot com code jesse is how you get
that two hundred dollars off free shipping. These things are miracles.

(31:40):
I own nine of them. Edenpuredals dot com code Jesse.
We'll be back values when it comes to is we'll
focus on the family.

Speaker 16 (32:02):
It reminds me of some of the Olga try and
some of the ways in which those family values. If
you will have been hijacked by the religious rights identify
with the drag.

Speaker 11 (32:13):
Community released, I'm join us from.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
One and the Wall.

Speaker 8 (32:20):
The two.

Speaker 11 (32:21):
We have denied the full expression of God's ning diversity.
We have violence the voices of the queer community.

Speaker 16 (32:30):
Denied beauty of drag, and stifled some expression.

Speaker 11 (32:36):
Today we declare that we will no longer stand idly
body as Oppression and Discrimination Act derived.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Vicility. And what is going on in the American church?
Obviously there's some that are just openly gross. Many are
subtly gross. Those are probably more damaging. But why isn't
the church in the front of this country anymore? And

(33:09):
why is the church as that stands right now crumbling?
Joining me now, Pastor Lucas Miles, author of the book
Woke Jesus? Okay, Pastor not every church obviously has trannies
up there doing communion and chanting things and all the
other things like that. But there are a whole lot
of false doctrines being tossed around in the church in
this country now.

Speaker 8 (33:30):
Absolutely. I mean, look, we're seeing this internationally as well.

Speaker 12 (33:33):
We just had a kind of radical Catholic priest or
bishop in Germany that was blessing same sex marriages and
same sex couples. You know, Look, there are schisms happening
in virtually every single denomination. The Methodist Church, even the
Southern Baptist Church here in the US has been really
ravished over these things in many ways. And I think
it's really you know, starting to show itself as this

(33:55):
is not secondary issues, This is not just you know,
debatable doctrines. This is all the worship of two different deities,
the true Biblical Christ that we have presented in scripture,
or this woke Jesus that I write about that we're
hearing talked about that ultimately is a false deity.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
How did this happen? How did this worm its way
into the church? Like you mentioned a Catholic priest blessing
same sex marriage. That's pretty black and white in the Bible.
It doesn't leave a lot of room up for interpretation
on the biblical view on that.

Speaker 8 (34:29):
No, you're absolutely right.

Speaker 12 (34:31):
I mean, look, we could go back all the way
to the seventeen hundreds and start looking at the introduction
of progressive ideology into the church in more recent years.
I think that the birth of the Seeker sensitive movement,
although it did a great job of making converts, did
a really poor job of making disciples, and in many
ways it sort of set up the next generation as

(34:52):
having a form of Christianity, a form of spirituality, but
without any substance, without really a strong commitment to the
Word of God. There was a large percentage of Christians
who were attending church but were still biblically illiterate. As
of course we're seeing only expanded on today. And so
when new ideas came in, this this false gospel of

(35:12):
you know, this this kind of under the guise what
I call the trojan horse of social justice, it was
presented to Christians that you know, weren't able to truly
discern if this was orthodox thinking or not. They grabbed
a hold of it, they endorsed it, and of course
it's only gotten more radicalized since then with the divergent
views of you know, sexuality and critical you know, queer

(35:33):
theory and all these things that have been added on
to that. But it's been definitely a slow, you know,
progression that now seems to be speeding up very rapidly
as it's hitting more and more, you know, really schisms
and separations within movements.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
So can you speak to this secret sensitive movement you
brought up for those who are unfamiliar with it, Yeah.

Speaker 12 (35:52):
Yeah, absolutely, so, the secret sensitive movement I mean, you know,
people might be familiar with say Willow Creek in Chicago
or Rick Warren's Ministry out in California Saddleback. These were
churches that I think were pioneering this in a lot
of way, and I think with good intention. Initially they
started off looking for what's the best way to be
able to onboard somebody to the Christian faith, and so
they they sought to structure their churches in ways that

(36:13):
you know, would kind of make the services shorter and
sort of you know, uh, you know, minimize the teaching time.

Speaker 8 (36:18):
To more uh you know.

Speaker 12 (36:20):
Bite sized chunks that people could you know, could really
endure during a service. But but ultimately, this desire to
make converts quickly and to grow rapidly, and it produced
a lot of big, mega churches. It didn't disciple people,
uh into maturity, It didn't develop them in the teaching
of the Word of God. It didn't get them to
a place to where they could discern falsehood from uh

(36:41):
and and and you know, from truth and fact from fiction.
And so ultimately I think it left a lot of
Christians very vulnerable to false ideas and and you know,
so as we see this sort of leftist, progressive uh
Marxist form of Christianity that's being presented with the woke Gospel.
In many ways, this sound it sounded right to people.
It tickled their ears in the way that they needed,

(37:03):
and unfortunately they took it hook line and singer.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Pastor. One of the things. And you may disagree with
me on this, and that's totally fine, by the way.
One of the things that frustrates me a lot, I
speak about it a lot, is how lase fair Christians
are about the electoral process, about voting, about politics in
this country. A poll after a poll shows about fifty
percent of American Christians even vote. They'll go sit in
a pew on Sunday and hear all these things about

(37:28):
family and values and marriage and whatnot, and then on
election day. I don't know exactly what they're doing past there.
Maybe they're sitting at home praying, but they're not voting.
The other side very much is voting, and Christians don't
somehow think this is a priority for them. It drives
me insane.

Speaker 12 (37:44):
Yeah, look, I agree with you wholeheartedly, and I mean
the stats show that you're exactly right that Christians have
I think in many ways it's sort of this escapist
mentality that, you know, the rapture doctrine has influenced a
lot of people.

Speaker 8 (37:57):
And I'm not trying to say I'm.

Speaker 12 (37:58):
For or against the idea of a rapture right now,
but just sort of the extreme escapist view that God's
coming back. I don't have to worry about anything. He's
going to get me out of here before the real
problems set in. And that's not really a biblical worldview.
A biblical worldview is that we occupy until He comes.
This is what Scripture teaches us. We should be seeking
to influence the world. My church is called influenced Church.

(38:20):
There's no eye, it's n flue and c. And that's
really our attitude is that we want to influence the world.
We want to influence this nation with the truth of
the Gospel. I'm not looking for a theocracy. I don't
want the church to take over the government, but I
do want the Gospel to really impact and inspire people
to such a degree that it reaches up to the

(38:41):
highest levels of the land and really starts inspiring righteousness
and just decisions and you know, a greater sense of
morality and purpose, and that we are here, you know,
created by God to live out this life that He's
given us, and that should start shaping morality and policies
and laws eventually. Christians, it is not optional to be
involved in this process. We should utilize every single available

(39:05):
resource in order to get involved. And pastors that are
out there, let me just say this, if pastors who
told you that abortion is political, who told you that
same sex marriage is a political topic, who told you
that sovereign borders is a political topic. As Christians and
as pastors, we are called to teach the full counsel
of God, and we should be speaking on every single
issue that is relevant today and equipping our church to

(39:27):
be able to think biblically about all of those items.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
Pastor did America's kindness to us because America was founded
by Christians for the most part, that America's kindness to
Christianity is that part of what made us too soft?
If you will, I mean, you see people in China,
they're Afghanistan, They're hiding in the basements of their apartments,
trying to pull up the Bible app which can get
their heads cut off on their phones. And that'sn't been

(39:52):
like that for us. Here. It's been easy to be
a Christian here. You don't get any crap for wearing
across necklace in this country. Is that what made us soft?

Speaker 12 (40:00):
I don't think it's the only thing. I mean, certainly
there's a point to be made there. You know, the
church father Tertullian said that the death of the martyr
is the death of the martyr is the seat of
the church. When persecution happens, the church has a tendency
to expand, to grow. I mean we've seen right now,
even with the you know, the amount of tyranny that
we've seen, you know, really projected on this nation through

(40:22):
COVID and through the rise of Antifa and BLM and
everything else that's happened. You know, our church has grown
probably three or four times in the last twelve to
eighteen months, you know. So we are seeing a lot
of growth, a lot of we could use this term
maybe revival in people as they're starting to realize what's
at stake. The problem is, you're right, we should have
been recognizing this a decade ago, twenty years ago, and

(40:43):
there were people that were ringing that bell. I just
don't think it was heard widely because I think a
lot of Christians were still comfortable. They never would dream
that this might come on our shores. And now all
of a sudden, we're starting to see Christians, you know,
face degrees and increasing degrees of persecution in this nation.
And I think people are star ready to wake up
a little bit, but they need to wake up a
lot sooner.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
Do you how many pastors do you talk to? Do
you talk to any who understand that the federal government
is making the church the enemy, that they are coming
for the church, whether the church wants to acknowledge that
or not, they are coming for it. Do pastors grasp that?
And I asked, because we sat down with ours for
lunch a couple weeks ago, my wife and I, and
he was one of these guys that didn't even watch
the news, like he was totally unaware of what was

(41:25):
going on. And I was just flabbergasted at how naive
this guy was so.

Speaker 12 (41:29):
Earlier this year, we launched an initiative called the American
Pastor Project. It's Americanpastorproject dot org. And basically, what this
is a high level doctrinal statement that pastors across virtually
any denomination should be able to adhere to an agree
to you, and that they're really making a commitment to
Biblical orthodoxy and also taking a stand against these heresies
that were seeing of wokeism, globalism, you know, radical Marxism, etc.

(41:53):
And they're saying that we are not going to allow
these things from the pole bit. We have about five
hundred pastors that assigned this statement already.

Speaker 8 (41:58):
I can tell you.

Speaker 12 (41:59):
I was just at the spoke at the Turning Point
of Faith conference pastors conference that they had last week
in San Diego. There's about eleven hundred pastors and attendance there.

Speaker 8 (42:08):
There is a growing.

Speaker 12 (42:09):
Constituency, constituency of pastors that I think understand this, But
there are still a lot of pastors that have their
head in the sand. They're like you said, they're not
watching the news, they're not tight end. If they are
aware of these things, they're either afraid or they're willingly
looking the other way. And we need those pastors to
recognize that they have a duty that they are called
by God to preach the full counsel of the Word

(42:29):
of God, and that includes taking a biblical stand on
each of these issues and teaching their people to do
the same.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
Pastor thank you so much. I appreciate it, Thanks JESSI
of course, all right, we have a light in the mood. Next,
let's do this first, let's lighten the load on your wallet.
You see, rough Greens, it's an easy sell. When you're
giving somebody more years with their dog. Who doesn't want

(42:57):
more years with the dog? Everyone wants more years with
your dog. Rough Greens will keep your dog alive longer.
What you may not realize is rough Greens keeps you
away from the vet. When you stop giving your dog
just junk food, which is dog food every day, and
you start giving them vitamins, minerals, probiotics and omega oils
and all these things, your dog doesn't have to go

(43:19):
to the doctor the vet as much. Rough Greens saves
me money. They give out free bags right now, natural
herbal supplement poured on your dog's food. They free bags.
All you pay for is the shipping. Call them eight
three three three three my dog, or you can go
to Roughgreens dot com slash Jesse. I'll be back. I

(43:49):
hate how much I like this light in the mood.
Sometimes do you ever have a moment where you look
at yourself and you say, am I a bad person.
Like the other day, I was riding with the wife
and she says to me, she said, totally straight face.
She says, your problem is you think you're the normal
one and the entire rest of the world is weird,

(44:10):
so you should just get to do what you want
all the time. That's what she said to me. We're laughing.
I was laughing. I was laughing to dagon heart. I
almost cried because I think that's probably fair. I don't
know why I think this is so funny, but I do.
We'll get to it in a moment. Before we get
to that, let's get to the timeshare you're stuck in.
You know that you can get out of that time share, right,
You're not stuck in your time share. Everyone thinks they are,

(44:34):
and they think they are because these timeshare companies are
professional liars. They get you to sign a contract and
then they tell you when you try to get out, no, no, sorry,
you got to keep paying annual fees and special assessments.
No you didn't read the contract, and they'll send you
the part of the contract that says you're stuck for life.
Lone Start Transfer has been through all this, they're successful.
Ninety nine percent of the time. That's guarantees. They guarantee it.

(44:57):
They put it down in writing, They put it in
writing a time frame, and they say, we'll get you
out your one phone call away from freedom eight four
four three one zero two six four six in your
free all right, call them now. Merrick Carland spoke yesterday
and we played a bit of his testimony before Congress.

(45:18):
But maybe maybe the most insane thing I saw yesterday
wasn't what came out of Merrick Carland's mouth.

Speaker 13 (45:25):
It was this, huh huh, I need water help.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Me, I need water help.

Speaker 3 (45:41):
You have to keep drinking head. Remember who.

Speaker 1 (46:04):
Drinks water like that? Look, I have a bottle of
water right here, and I was actually looking at it
during that clip. I was thinking of myself, Man, I'm
a little bit thirsty. I think I'll drink water, and
I was thinking I would drink it like this. What
kind of a person goes two hands on the water bottle?
Who does that?

Speaker 3 (46:26):
All right?

Speaker 1 (46:26):
