Chris breaks down a recent Bernie Sanders rally in Wisconsin, questioning the mentality of government reliance. From historical parallels to Moses leading the Israelites to the inefficiency of centralized power, he explains why true progress happens at the local level—not through Washington, D.C.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Traveling this past weekend.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
So I spent a lot of time doing prep work,
and I saw online this Bernie Sanders rally that was
held in Wisconsin. Everyone is all excited, hagit nuts the
left out there.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Oh my god, look at you got. Twenty five hundred
people caped it. It's Bernie Sanders rally. And look what
he did. He asked so what they wanted, and people
were cheering and going nuts. And then I looked a
little bit closer, looked a little bit closer, and again
I feel sorry. I feel sorry for the people that
(00:50):
we all should feel sorry. Again, it's normal inclination, and
there's too much of it going on right now to
rip apart and make fun of the other side. And yeah,
I know, it's it's easy. It's easy. You see on
Hing's people and just how ridiculous they're acting. But anyway,
(01:10):
watches Bernie Sanders rally, and I would say more than
a third to a half of them are wearing masks.
It was a it was a crowd that again that's
they weren't well dressed. So it's just put it to
you that way. It's like everybody rolled out of bed
off and looked like an airport in America at some
(01:31):
point in time, and a lot of grievance is there.
I want this. I want the government to hand me this.
Do this. Bernie Sanders introduced a transgender singer rock star
that's saying a song I can't I don't even repeat
it here on the program. I hope my God has
(01:52):
a big you know what. I'm not making this up.
These pool are unfortunate souls that the song that Ursula
the Sea Witch sang a little mermaid. But you have
to you have to feel some sort of sympathy for
(02:13):
these people. People. There's there's historical precedent for this, and
I'm talking historical precedent from this, I'm talking biblical for
crying out loud. I've often yelled and screamed here on
the podcast, on the radio show at how fourth of
(02:33):
July bothers me simply because of all the you know,
the all the pary I I mean Okay, I like,
I don't mind the celebrating the fourth of July if
you actually are celebrating freedom and most people don't want freedom.
Freedom's tough. Freedom is difficult. I go back to Moses.
(02:56):
It leads the Israelites out of Egypt, frees them from bondage,
frees them from slavery. They actually witness the the power
of God first hand. Well, one of the first things
they do when they get their freedom complain, ah Man,
(03:17):
back then when we were slaves, we got meet and
we had leaks and we had fruit. I mean, freedom
is is not It's not an easy thing. And many people,
many people, they said that they don't want any part
of it, they want any part of that. They want
to rely on the government. They want someone to take
(03:40):
care of them. And to me, that's it's now not
what humanity is all about. Let's see exact opposite of
what the human spirit should be all about. I think
that true, I feel that that that true happiness in
life is about overcoming op sickles and achieving goals and
(04:05):
looking to Washington, d C. To solver problems. And again
there's certain areas of the country are going to have problems,
but that's where again we need to get back to
our community, not not Washington, but locally. Every community has problems,
but local communities are going to be much better to
deal with these problems than Washington is. And that the
founders of this country understood this, They got this, they
(04:31):
set up the system where we had states. Jefferson talked
about being various different little laboratories, problems being handled on
the local level rather than going to Washington, d C.
But what is that? What does that achieve? You know,
you got over twenty five per sect of the GDP
of this country run us through Washington d C. That
(04:54):
they don't build or create anything. People taking time out
of their day to go to a watch Bernie Sanders,
who's never really built anything or created anything in his life.
He has lived his entire life living off government, gotten
himself wealthy. The socialists that's gotten himself wealthy off living
(05:15):
off government. Again, that's how that's how you get wealthy.
If in socialists and communist societies, you have to be
a part of government or you have to be in
bed with government. It's it's one or the other. And
airing their grievances. Looking for Bernie Sanders to solve their problems.
You're looking You're looking in the wrong place, my friends,
(05:40):
you're looking in the wrong place. And I feel bad.
I feel I've this great sadness for these people. And
you know, you have to amst pray for the people
to say hidden. At some point in time, you're gonna
have to wake up and see the light. And you guys,
(06:04):
want to solve your problems there in your community. Whatever
Bernie was in Wisconsin, I had no idea. Then solve
it there. Don't look to this guy because he's not
going to do it. Yeah, getting the government out in
the federal government out of the way and allowing things
to be handled at the local level. Again, that's the
(06:26):
most efficient way of handling anything. But no, it's just
people would rather they would rather say, Hey, I don't
want to deal with this, I don't want to be free.
I'd rather be that slave. Time tested. It's true now,
(06:48):
it's true true in the time of Moses, watchtarg and
