(02:39):
go to click that link at thunderus radio dot com
for the talkside, that's actually who who provides that link
for uce, so it goes through all their stuff. All right,
all right, we have we've been celebrating, I guess early
the two hundred fiftyth anniversary of the American Revolution, War

(03:00):
of Independence, Declaration of Independence, who we officially said, we're
done with our parent country, Great Britain, and we are
no longer going to be subjects, but we're going to
be citizens of basically a new thing over here. When
thirteen colonies declared themselves independent, sort of independent, really many
countries if you will. In fact, if you look at

(03:22):
the Declaration of Independence, it says it says the United
and the United is lower case, that's not a typo,
and States is upper case. So they declared themselves thirteen
independent states. We weren't quite yet consolidated union of a country,
yet we were on the way there. It was sort
of sperm meets a I guess you could say at

(03:43):
that moment, but we were really established, not quite at
that moment as a nation, but as thirteen independent states. Okay,
sometimes you get a little confused on that because we think, well,
it's when America was born, Well, that's when it kind
of got started. But that's quite when we were born, say,
as a union and coming all together under a constitution.
That happened a few years later, but it was the

(04:04):
beginnings anyway. We had just recently the ken Burns series
on the American Revolution, which did have some woky stuff
in it, which I expected, and some actually things were
just flat inaccurate, and history buff like me picked those
things out. But most of it, i'd sa eighty percent
of it was pretty darnk good and pretty well spot on,

(04:26):
and as somewhat of Native American heritage, I'm glad that
he did spend some time on the Native American involvement
in that night. Now he did get a little off
the rails, but the whole Iroquois thing, because how the
Iroquois chose their leaders and their quote unquote democracy of
sorts was not very democratic, let's put it down way,
So they were not a blueprint for US menagament. Franklin's

(04:49):
referral to the Erroquois as, look, if they can do it,
we ought to be able to do it even better
was more or less the gist of his letter to
a guy about all that. But and so I did
expect some woki stuff in there. Ken Burr's as woke.
He's a woky guy, but that just comes with the territory.
But most of us was spot on, but again some glaring,
some glaring errors, and some things that were just completely

(05:13):
left out that I thought, well, you know, you unily
cramped so much, I guess in the twelve hours. But
I did enjoy watching the bulk of it. But I'm
reverencing that simply to say, Okay, we're in the beginnings
of celebrating our two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. Right when
we told King George the Third to shove off in
Parliament and the whole British government say adios, we're severing ties.
We're doing our own thing over here. And one of

(05:36):
those issues, it was really kind of a minor issue
in some ways in the overall scheme of things, but
it was an issue on the table. There were umpteen
issues on the table, some major issues with which we
decided we had a part ways. In fact, you can
see most of them listed in the Declaration of Independence.
A laundry list, pretty lengthy one because it was a
legal document and it really was in response to I

(06:00):
think it would be Article forty five. I could be
rolling that double check me on that of the back
of Karta. But we had to, and I wish you
had gone into that a little bit more. But in
ken Burton's thing, but you know, you know, the cram
in so much twelve hours. But some important figures were
left out and some import events were left out. But
I get it. We decided we're One of the things

(06:23):
we decided against was, you know, we're gonna put up
with taxation with our representation, and we have a system
where by and large we reject that. Apparently, apparently King
Gavin Newsom, the third of California didn't get that memo,

(06:45):
and his administration and many of his fellow politicos and lawmakers,
they apparently did not get that thing. Get an understanding
of that very clearly, and let me explain, because there
are some former residents of California who haven't been there
for years who are suddenly getting tax bills. And we're

(07:05):
not talking for back taxes per se that they owed
while they lived there, but back tax is that they're
claiming that Californias claiming that they owe for years when
they weren't even living there. Now, I can understand if
you have a business. It's still operational. You know, you
have an operational business there, and or you have double

(07:25):
residences and you know some people do, and some wealthier
people might have a house in two different states or whatever.
In the hobnob. Okay, then I get it. But you know,
you packed up the U haul or U hauls, you
and the family and the kids, and the dog and
the cat and the goldfish, and you moved from California
to Chilicothee, Ohio, and you've been there for you know,
ten twelve years, and suddenly here's a tax bill from

(07:48):
a year you weren't there the California saying you owe
it's money, and well, no I don't. I wasn't living
there at that time. Well we think you do, so
you do crazy junk. I mean, and even after people
have moved away, that they're taking this attitude that, well,
you know, we're still going to come after you. You're
still gonna pass taxes, even though you've you've taken your
company and you and and you've hauled yourself away from us,

(08:12):
and you've packed up your U hauls in your in
your and your trucks and your personnel and you fled,
well not so fast because we're still going to come
after you. That's the attitude right now. Really, well, that
would be a form of taxation without representation. You know,
I live in the old Dominion I either state of Virginia,

(08:35):
so I used to live in Texas. Now if they
now Texas doesn't have a state income tax. But let's
just say I don't know the city of Austin where
I live. Said, well, you know what back in we
notice back in the whatever and coase they don't have
any contax area there. But just using an example, uh,
you have a little tax money on this or that

(08:56):
we never got from you, so you know you did
pay that. Well, okay, that might be one thing. But
if they suddenly just say, well, we know you moved
away about ten years ago, ten and a half years ago,
but you know you lived here an awful long time,
so we feel like you kind of owe us, you know,

(09:19):
and you sold your house at a little bit below
market value. That kind of ripped us off when you
did that. So here's a tax bill for three grand
can we expect that? Well, I haven't lived in your
state for a while, so how can you tax me
in that taxation without representation? How can you or your

(09:39):
state or your state lawmakers come up with a tax
game to tax me when I haven't even been there.
I want to owe you taxes. Well, this is happening.
There's something akin to it is happening. And again, my
new name for this man will now be King, not governor.

(10:02):
King Gavin Newsom the third because this really kind of
takes the cake. He's pushing retroactive tax, including those who
fled the state. That's being reported by John Nolty Brightbart
dot com California gubernatorial cabin emphasis on goober California gouber

(10:22):
natorial candidate Gavin Newsom. Uh, he's he's kind of he's
kind of pushing for this, and he says he's only
targeting billionaires on this after he said he's not going
after billionaires. Okay, you've probably heard those stories. I don't
know what a week or two or three or four
or five ago. I'll not go after the billionaires. But o'connellan,

(10:43):
but the president of retroactive tax, even on those who
left the state, should make every California resident a former resident. Needer,
you should make all Americans uneasy. Again, it's it's it
can it could drift into a form of taxation without representation.
If you no longer live there, well we're gonna teuxt
you anyway. You know, you didn't pay some back taxes
at YO. That's one thing in state's other. You know,

(11:04):
when you move from one say to the other say,
they can kind of come after you for that. That's true.
But we're talking about people that have been gone for
a while. Well, you're still gonna pay us taxes even
though you moved you here last two years. We're stillingna
tuxture with those years. Anyway, you shouldn't move. It's hard
and us so you can Jack Okay. Newsom is pushing
the retroactive billionaire tax, targeting the roughly two hundred twenty

(11:25):
billionaires residing in California in twenty twenty five. Now, this
is according to Jonathan Turley. He's a law professor, by
the way, Constitutional law Guy. It signals not just a
desperation in the face of crippling debt and overspending in
the Communist Republic of California, but a recognition that California

(11:45):
is chasing its highest earners out of the state. Join
join New York and some others on that one it's
called the twenty twenty six Billionaires a Tax Act, the
Billionaires Tax Act interesting and would hit anyone worth more
than a billion bucks with a supposed one time five

(12:07):
percent tax on their wealth over a billion dollars. Ah,
but here's the catch. While technically using twenty twenty six
wealth figures about that, it'll it would apply to billionaires
who resided in California in twenty twenty five as Shirley,
so you cannot hope to flee at least with your wealth. Intact,
it is a penalty for those who stayed too long

(12:29):
hoping that rational minds would prevail in California. In other words,
it's the way to say, Okay, you think you're going
to bug out like Elon Musk and these other cats,
well forget it. Of course, some people's added, you might
be taxing billionaires whatever. Who cares reetrorectally taxing bionaires. We
should all care. It's the principle what business people, corporations,

(12:55):
and job creators seek above all else. Sometimes isn't low taxes.
Sometimes it is fewer regulations and introducing that, or even
a business friendly climate. In fact, many large corporations see
high taxes owners regulations and hostility towards business as a
benefit is a way to kill the thing they fear most,
which is competition ab others. And that's true, they'll kind
of use it in a way to their advantage. But

(13:17):
what all business types and need is stability. As high
as taxes and as expensive as time consuming is the
regulations might be. If these are expected problems, they can
be planned for, which makes them tolerable at least a point.
But stability is everything, even if it's an expensive stability.
What they don't like or surprizes such as a retroactive

(13:39):
tax shot out of the blue. That's one reason why
a retroactive taxes allows the idea the precedent will scare
businesses in the wealthy way. Another reason why a directive
tax is a terrible idea is that it tells anyone
who lives in California, who used to live in California,
or is considering living in California, that the Hotel California
is a real thing. There's a line that some only
says you can check out anytime you like, but you

(14:01):
can never leave. Well, yeah, it's becoming the real Hotel California.
One of the great things about America is that were
not trapped, Unlike Europeans who cannot flee in Italy or France.
We can flee a California to escape it's creeping fascist socialism.
But what if you can't, What if once you live
there they can retroactically steal your money forever? About that

(14:25):
truly goes on to say, from my experience, this is
already happening, no kidding. A few months ago, California placed
a thirty five hundred dollar lien on my checking account,
claiming I owe back income taxes for twenty thirteen and
twenty fourteen. Here's a catch, though, he says, but I
moved out of California in twenty eleven, in the month Senciline.
With the patient help of our payroll department, we've been

(14:46):
sending document after document to California's revenue department. But as
still as it resolved, talk about a time sock. And
while everyone I've dealt with over there has been pleasant,
you can never talk to the same person to and
it's always voicemails and massive wait times. Of course, that's
the way the bureaucrats weigh you down. Since this happened

(15:08):
to me, more than one person has told me California
did the same to them. So it smells like a shakedown,
hoping we just give up trying to document our innocence
and let them steal our money. Well, that's kind how
the mob operates something. But that's also how kings operate.
It's also how tyrants operate. And again it's a form
of taxation without representation. If you have like like Jonathan

(15:30):
Turley here, law professor, steemed law professor, who'd been out
of the state for all this time, and they claim
he owes back taxes on a time he wasn't even there.
He wouldn't even live in there. It's like, wait a minute,
I wasn't even a resident. A little to tough coming
after you. Well, I guess they know he's a big target.
He's you know, pretty I mean, I don't know that
he's a millionaire, but he does well. He's all in

(15:52):
Fox News a lot. He's tenured law professor. He's writing
books and this and that, and he speaks, has speaking engagement.
He's doing okay, I mean, he the guy that's going
around with the bolooney sandwich in his launch back. You know,
probably unless he just likes Bolooney sandwiches. But this is
the kind of mentality. My springboard from this before we

(16:12):
go to break, is that this is the type of
mentality that has gripped so many states and municipalities and
is growing. Sadly, I believe I would contend in our nation.
But this is California being desperate. This is Gavin Newsom.
This guy wants to be president. Okay, this Gvin wants
to be the president. And for some of you who

(16:32):
think that the current president is close to the anti Christ,
you haven't seen the anti Christ yet. This is the
kind of thuggery and tyranny that we had a revolution against.
Gang This is the kind of nonsense we said, yeah, no,
we're not gonna play this game. But here we have

(16:57):
a state, a governor and fellow politicos and lawmakers that
think this is kind of a good idea. And by
the way, California, for the first time in its history
the past couple of years or so, has been losing population,
not gaining it. They're going the other direction for the
first time since they became a state of the United States.

(17:19):
Their population is starting to shrink by hundreds of thousands.
People are packing up and saying, you know, we just
can't deal with this, and they're moving to places like
taxes and the Carolinas and taxes in Florida. Oh and
did I say Texas. Yeah, you drive around Austin, Texas,

(17:42):
for example, it was getting that way before I moved
from there. You saw a lot of California tags. You
still see a lot of California tags. Problem is, though
a lot of Californians have brought their politics with them.
They fled the economics and some of the politics, but
then they bring the virus with them. And this is

(18:04):
the problem from a lot of people that flee these
kind of states. Sometimes they bring their ideologies with them
and then they kind of mess up what made your
state kind of nice. It's like, well, wait a minute,
we don't want to become another California over here. If
you like California so much, or you want to California
the second, go back to California, leave us alone there.

(18:26):
There's an old joke in Texas that was going around
when I was living there that says, what's what's every
texans worst nightmare? Californian with a U haul anyway, they
take a pause. Oh and it's not stopping here. He's

(18:53):
actually actually going after up trick to church, his administration
and his government king in California is going after a
church because he thinks you should be a subject and
not really a citizen.

The views expressed on this talk show may not necessarily

So there, now here's your host, Richie El.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
Yeah. So uh, King King Gavin the Third is also
gonna still well kind of kind of published church and
this is bad. Uh. Gavin Newsom in a way just
kind of cleared to war on the church. Uh. He's
being taken to the Supreme Court. By the way, California

(21:46):
governors still trying to bankrupt a church with a multimillion
dollar fines over worship services that were held during the pandemic.
So of the most insidious attacks on the on the
Christian Church that I think has probably ever been witnessed
in a particular state in the in the Union, probably
in modern times anyway, Now Jesus was clear, give to
Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God.

(22:08):
Now Caesar's going after the church's offerings, and there's there's pushback.
There's a fight back happening.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
UH.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
The a cl J that SJA Secular's bunch is UH
is helping these guys out. In fact, it's Cavalry Chapel
and their legal team is directly representing Calvary Chapel. In fact,
they're follwing a major appeal to the US Supreme Court
to defend the church against Newsom. It's one of the
biggest Supreme Court cases that they feel like they've ever

(22:42):
taken on defending a church and will drastically impact the
rights of churches nationwide depending on how the court determines.
And you know, there's actually some deep state wars kind
of going on against Christians. You might recall under the
FBI or when Chris Ray was on the FBI, you know,

(23:02):
he did this thing got out of hand where they
were spying on the Catholics or whatever, and of course
Chris Ray said he was, you know, pretty much shocked
and disgusted and told and said that thing needed to stop,
and all that well, it kind of did, but it
kind of didn't, you know, And he acted like he
didn't know anything about it. And I'm not so sure
that was from some of the things that had come
out since, and I'm just sure that.

Speaker 8 (23:20):
Was the truth.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Uh. But this is a kind of the war expanding
on the church, so to speak. And I've said that
it's it's institutionalized the anti Christian bigotry. I mean, you know,
strip clubs could remain open, Bars could remain open, liquor
stores could remain open, ball games could still happen. You

(23:46):
could have in California all kinds of riots those are
those were okay. You could you could gather, you know,
and have large protests. That was cool. But if you
were at church it decided to gather, well hold on there,
We're not allow that. Really, why not. You're allowing all

(24:06):
these other things to happen. You're allowing thousands of people
to show up in a protests and rub shoulders indoors
or outdoors, But we're not gonna allow that. We're not
gonna allow the churches to get to go. Okay, all right,
that seems a little weird to me. But corbells is
magnitude f religious liberty. You know, they they're they're they're

(24:32):
very critical. Of course, do take a lot of resources too,
But this is just part and partial for this way
of thinking from I'm just gonna call him what he is,
these big socialist types, that's what he is. I think

(24:52):
the evidence is stark and in people's faces. You can
choose to accept it or reject it up to you.
But this is the kind of crazy, tyrannical junk that
reduces people from citizens, which is what we are. See.
Here's the thing that people didnt understand about the back Revolution.
It converted us from subjects of the king, second class

(25:18):
subjects for that matter. You know you colonials, second class subjects,
almost property really of the king, to citizens with a
certain amount of self sovereignty. Are you one of those
sovereigns citizens people? Well, no, wait a minute, read very

(25:42):
carefully tenth Amendment. The watershed of powers delegated is to
the States and the people, not the federal government. In fact,
it was Thomas Jefferson that said that was his favorite
amendment of the whole Bill of Rights. I sort of
understand why or why a politician would think that. I

(26:06):
tend to be a little more inclined to the first one,
but you know, I get it. So we do have
a certain amount of sovereignty. The states have a certain
amount of sovereignty. People have a certain amount of sovereignty.
We are not subjects of the government. Okay, we are citizens.
And the big takeaway from the American Revolution is it

(26:29):
made us citizens was some sovereignty. I mean, read the
opening shots of the Declaration of Independence. We are endowed
by our creators. We're certain nailable rights. Amongst these life liberty,
they asuit of happiness. We are endowed with liberty. Our
liberties don't come from government. That come from God, a

(26:51):
sovereign God who's bestowed those upon us. You know, the
king's been monarchs back in those days, said well, you know,
they rule and determine things by divine divine right and
divine might. And our founding fathers fired back with, well,
we got some divine rights of our own. You're not

(27:11):
the only one sitting around with some divine rights. And
in fact you're abusing your rights. You become tyrannical. The
government has become erantical. You in Parliament have become tyrannical,
and you're abusing our rights. So we're gonna stand up
and defend our rights. Remember, keep in mind with long
before we had the Declaration of Independence, we had, for example,

(27:34):
the Virginia Declaration of Rights. Not too far from where
I'm sitting. A bunch of guys on the edge of
the Western Virginia Frontier have what they call the Fincastle Resolution,
not even thirty miles from where I'm sitting. Over in
Pennsylvania County, they had a resolution about the same time,
this would say, early seventeen seventy five. This is before

(27:58):
the shots are being fired the Battle of Lexington and conquered. Now,
they weren't saying, you know, we're done with it with
the British government and the King can go soak himself.
But they were saying, look, you need to to back
off here. We have some rights and you're kind of
stepping on them, Uh, British Government and the King in Parliament,

(28:22):
you're kind of stepping on these things, Governor of Virginia,
and we are prepared to fight to defend these if
you push us over in a corner. In other words,
it was a bit of a threat that you know,
we don't we don't want to revolt, but if you
keep coming at us, we're gonna leave with any other choice.
And the Decoration of Independence pretty much said, okay, you've

(28:43):
you've kind of forced us into this. You've made the
choice in the sense yourself. So now we're saying, okay,
we you know, you push this as far as we
want to let you push us. So we're going to
dissolve our union in our ties with you guys, and
do our own thing. Bye. You know you wanted it,
you asked for it, you got it. Maybe, I mean,
that's kind of what they were saying. But my point

(29:04):
is this, the Revolutionary War exactly just independence, Articles of Confederation,
ultimately our constitution. It created us as citizens. Look who
created the federal government. It was the states. Federal government

(29:26):
did create the states. The states created the federal government,
all right, And how can the creator be inferior to
the created and its It says at the top of
the of the Constitution says, we, the people of the
United States, in order to form more perfect union. It

(29:50):
tells you is creating this thing. Ultimately, who's responsible for
it and who has the power. It's the people. We
the people. It's not we the government, not we the bureau.
That's not we the politicians, Not we the leaders who
know better than you, because we're more educated and we're smarter,
and you're just dumb and you're just ignorant whitewash masses,
and you know, we've got to take care of you
because you otherwise you just implode on yourself. That's not

(30:13):
what it says. Of course, that's the way a lot
of politicals think nowadays. They may not come out and
directly say that, they might say it indirectly, but that's
that's pretty much the idea. But we're not subjects of
the of the state of California or the government or
of California. Gavin Newsom, he's not a king, nor any politicians.

(30:38):
None of them are vassal lords. You know, we have
this no King's Day thing. Well we have that every
fourth of July. Duh, people like that. That was a
new thing. Oh, it's just so to be a brand
new nurtial hold that. Yeah, we have one. It's called
fourth of July. That's our No King's Day. Ding dong. See,
when you don't teach history, you're you're you're destined to
repeat it or get it screwed up. Take your pick.

(31:03):
Usually it's a bit of both. But because our educational
system is becoming an indoctrination factory, rather than putting knowledge
into the gray matter of mush between the ears of
young folk, we evendoctrinated them. We want them to be
little worker bees who are obedient and little subjects, little robots,

(31:31):
and we want them to know that well, America's have failed. Experiment.
The experiment of America's failed, So now we must gravitate
towards Marxism and socialism and communism and this ism and
that ism or whatever other isms we can come up with.
And the young skulls of mush go okay, and they
believe it because they're not taught to think critically in

(31:54):
the public school system. No, no, no, we can't have these
little youngsters thinking critically, and were sure that you know what.
Don't want them to know about their constitutional rights, especially
when they grow up and cann exercise is adults. Those
councils right now, we don't know that. We don't want
to know all that stuff, don't We don't want them

(32:16):
to know the proper way to handle a cop at
the traffic stop. We don't want them to know they
complete the Fifth. We don't want them to know that
they don't have to surrender their right to to an attorney,
the right to remain silent, the right to ask for
a warrant unless there's probable cause. We don't want to

(32:38):
know aning of that stuff. Well, you know, if a
government official wants to pound into their house three in
the morning, well they should do that. Let them know
that you got nothing to hide, right what you're going in.
There's no nothing to hide clause in the Fourth Amendment.
It's the principal get a warrant if a cop shows

(32:59):
up to mind I listen. I'm one of the most
pro law enforcement guys probably doing podcasting today. I'm very
very pro law enforcement. All right. I've bet some dear
friends in law enforcement. You slip around a bunch of
cops in Austin, glad they were there kind of discourage

(33:20):
people from messed around trying to break into my house.
You got one two doors down. You know, you see
the cop cars in in there front. You're like, yeah,
maybe I won't rob this guy. I kind of like
that kind of a default security system kind of like that.
But if some officer knocks on the door real nice

(33:41):
and has a piece of paper and says, you know,
I kind of got worried you might have a little
something going here in your house. I need to come
in I see that warrant. Well, no, I need to
see the warrant. You can come in and look it
through my underwear drawer. I don't care. I need to
see a warrant, and it needs to be an actual
warrant that satisfies all the things in the Fourth Amendment,
not a general warrant. By the way, you're warrants. One
of the things we had a gripe against the old

(34:02):
King in Parliament about. That was one of our complaints
as to why we revolted was the general warrants and
they were still all enforcement, and she's to try to
pull those and use those. Well, sorry, Britz dried that,
and it didn't work out so well in the end,
did it. Yeah, that's not how that works. It's got
to satisfy all those requirements in the Fourth Amendment. You
show me, slide it through the door here, leave it

(34:24):
on the doorstep and step back about four or five feet.
Let me pick it up and let me read it.
And I might just call my attorney while I'm reading
it and reading it to him and see what he thinks.
And then if everything's good to go, you can come
in and you can search the refrigerator. You can make
yourself a sandwich if you want. I don't care. You

(34:45):
can help yourself to my cookies. Heck, I'll maake you
some cookies. How's that show you my appreciation? How about
some cookies not chocolate? While you're rummaging through my house.
You're gonna find anything, but you're gonna show me a
piece of paper before you walk in here that is legal,
that specifies the things and the persons and the places

(35:11):
and the reason, the legitimate reason why you're in here.
And there's a lot of judges at rubber stamp these things,
which is not right either. They need to look into
the before they just say, well, wait a minute while,
why you're gonna go rument through this guy's house. Well,
you know, neighbors said, well, okay, go talk to them now.
I don't know just some neighbors said something, Well, that

(35:32):
could just be some busybody that doesn't like the fact
that their beguners look better than theirs. Give me a
better reason of why you need to go plow it
into somebody's house with your badges and your guns. You see,
that's the difference between our system and what most other
countries have. All Right, we have these these defaults, We

(35:52):
have these walls between us and government that says you
can come at me just so far and then no further.
You see. So when when you have government types going
over the line on these things, then that's a problem.

(36:13):
That's a problem to a citizen. Now, if you're somebody
that just showed up on our doorstep, i e. Illegally
or even legally with the you know, a tourist visa, Okay,
you're entitled to a little bit of what I would
call short form do process. You don't get to vote,
you don't get a gun, you don't get all the

(36:37):
full goodies of the benefits of being a citizen because
you aren't. You're a visitor. And this is why illegal
aliens don't get long form per se. In most cases,
there are exceptions don't get long form, if you want
to call it that, do process. They tend to get
more short form. Now if they've you know, committed a

(36:59):
pretty fain of crime, you it's gonna be more the
long form due process. But and in fact, according to
the the Immigration re format, the legal immigration format are
gonna call that of nineteen ninety six that went into
a sindo by then President Bill Claion that winter to
effect in January of nineteen ninety seven. If you're within

(37:20):
one hundred miles any direction of or one hundred miles
you know, north, whatever of the border. If you're one
hundred miles or less of the border, you don't even
get that. They can just say sorry, you're not supposed
to be here, go back, and just you know, take
you to the bridge and make you go across, take

(37:41):
you to a detention center, and then send you back.
No judge, no nothing, because you know, you came across
our border unlawfully, uninvited. So you go back. We're not
taking anything from you. We're not taking your clothes, we're
not taking your you know, if we're going to start

(38:02):
taking things or arresting people for the crimes as they
cross the border, okay, then all right, a little do
process short form do process. They're entitled. But if it
just you know they came across, no, you're going back. Bye.
There's no need to go to judges and courts and
have hearings in this and all that because you just

(38:25):
you came across the line. Bye, back you go. There
are principles in our constitution for citizens. Let me stress
that that we are, that we inherit as actual citizens

(38:46):
or once we're naturalized, even if we're not born here,
but we become a citizen, then yeah, we get all
the goodies, everything that a citizen, all the rights of
the citizen is in town with Now we just start
handling these rights to anybody to put their big tour
across across the border for five seconds, then what's the

(39:08):
point being a citizen. Constitution is not for the entire world.
It's for us. It says at the top of the document,
we the people of where in the United States. That's
thing with the people of the world. It says we
the people in the United States. Or somebody just showed
up Pero yesterday. That's not what it says, says we

(39:31):
the people. Okay, so the Constitution applies to who will
people of the US. But as a citizen of the
US you are you are entitled to certain certain things

(39:52):
fair equal protection under the law, for example, equal process
under the law. In other words, you don't get special
treatment because where well, you know, you're this or you're that,
or you're wealthy, or you're poor, or you're Hispanic, or
you're black, or you're white, or you're mixed race, or
you're Native American or you're Somalian or you know, you

(40:14):
had a kind of a rough rough ride from where
you came. So we'll let you go ahead and cheat us.
We're gonna get into that a little bit later on
where Somalians are. There's people are gonna think that these
Somalians have been ripping off state local governments, particularly in
Minneapolis and Minnesota. Uh, just kind of some slack. You know,
they came from this poor country and just yeah, they're

(40:37):
they're violating the law, they're ripping off the MIDI committing felonies.
But you know, no, because if I go come in
the same felonies, I go to jail as an American citizen.
Somebody who came over here legally or even might be
here legally but is running a scam, well you know,
or they're just they came from a really bad place,

(40:58):
so you know, just kind of some flack. No, that's
not equal justice under the wall. There's no give them
some slack. Claus because of where they're from in the
Constitution or who their parents were or weren't. Let's take
a pause. We no more Christian talk. The rocks just

(41:30):
around the corner, stick around.

Speaker 5 (41:42):
Jesus, Hey, what's up.

Speaker 9 (41:49):
This is Toby Mack with the five Loves of a
Jesus Freak. Write him down, hide them in your heart.
Here they are, Love God, love his Word, love your enemy,
love your neighbor, love truth.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
Sound easy?

Speaker 2 (42:04):
Not likely.

Speaker 9 (42:06):
If all that does come too easy for you, you're
probably not working hard enough. On the other hand, these
five loves should become second nature to any authentic Jesus
free if you let God's grace offten your heart one
more time. Love God, love his Word, love your enemies,
love your neighbor, love truth.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
Amen.

Speaker 10 (42:28):
Jesus Streaks Radio is brought to you by DC Talk,
the Voice of the Martyrs in this station.

Speaker 2 (42:48):
So there was this college student Oklahoma University, Okay, you
who was doing an essay and it was it was
an assignment. This is an assignment and everybody was, you know,

(43:09):
doing the same assignment. And it was kind of like
a your opinion essay thing, you know, sort of a
debate your opinion thing, and it was for a psychology
course that she was taking. This This gal is named
Samantha Folnikey. She's a Christian and University of Oklahoma. This
is guys, this is a red state. This is the

(43:31):
Bible Belt. Okay, we're not talking California at the moment.
This is a you know, a state that's got a
little church building about every other street corner. Okay, but
you have to understand that anti Christian bigotry has bigotry
has permeated. I don't care where the university says, blue state,

(43:56):
red state, purple state, no state, it where it. If
it's it's there, you're going to have some folks in
it who are going to have some anti Christian bigotry.
And it's growing. I've shared stories on this show, at nauseum,
at infinitum, almost every single show where this anti Christian
bigotry in this country is growing and it's institutionalized. And

(44:20):
it ain't just blue states. A lot of it's going
on in a lot of it is going on in
red states, from little towns in red states, from red
state governments in red states, counties in red states. Okay,
so there are somewhere to saying, well, I've led those

(44:42):
blow stages, man, I hate Jesus and these blue stage Well,
there's some hating on Jesus going on in the Red
States too. I got news for you, brother sister. So
just because you're living in the Red State in the
Bible Belt, doesn't mean hellelu you think of Jesus, I'm
free of persecution. Wrong, it's there now too, Okay. So

(45:05):
I keep saying, if you are a genuine Christian in
this country, that the target on your back has grown,
and it is growing bigger by the day. So here
we go. You may have heard about this early part
of the week. It's kind of grown some legs since then.
We're going to get into it. But anyway, this is
a psych class University of Oklahoma the name of Samantha Polnick.
Christian Gal was asked to write a six hundred and

(45:28):
fifty ward essay reacting to an article about how people
are perceived based on societal expectations of gender, and her essay,
full Niki, argued that traditional gender roles should not be
considered stereotypes. In fact, she cited the Bible to support
her stance that eliminating gender in society would be detrimental

(45:49):
because that would put people farther from God's original plan
for humans. Of course, scripture does say he created the
male and female. Now, I don't think she was necessarily
haven't read the article. I don't think she was necessarily
saying women should have less rights than men, or vice versa.
But there are differences in the way that men and
women are wired. There just are. Men tend to be

(46:12):
tend to be larger and stronger physically. The testosterone tends
to give us a little bit more of a oomph
to our our strength, our abilities to do certain things,
uh that are of a physical nature. Uh. This is
why you you don't see as many women, for example,
in construction. You do see them, You're seeing more. Uh,

(46:35):
this is why you don't see very very many women
in certain kinds of physical roles. You don't see very
many women who are ship builders, who are in construction,
who are out there chopping down trees. I mean there
are some. There's some big, stout country gals that are
doing stuff and working on farms. I mean, you know,

(46:58):
I married me a stout gal. She can hold her own.
In fact, she used to help run security at a
racetrack a NASCAR racetrack in the vicinity, And when these
big old boys got out out of line and drunk
and run their mouths and slabbering on people and want
to pick fights. She's about five six and a half

(47:18):
stout girl. Uh, she could put them on the ground
in about two seconds. Guys about six one six two
six three eight and he about six feet of its mouth,
you know the kind and the bigger guys on the
ob security team would just sit around with their arms
cross and just laugh and go, ha ha, you got
beat up by a girl. So I'm not saying gels

(47:41):
can't take care of themselves and do a certain jobs.
But you find men more in those kinds of positions
for a reason than women, because men are stronger. They're
bigger and stronger, okay, or muscle, masks, greater bone that
it's just the way they're you know, they're built. Gripture
says God created men make creatives, men and male and female.

(48:02):
And there are certain things that women tend to have
a better acumen for than men. Women can multitask. Speaking
of the lovely missus Hell, I mean she does suffer
from chemo brain now, so not as much as she
used to. But she can still most multitasks somewhat. You know,
she can be sitting there looking at something on the
cell phone, laughing about something while she's making a meal,

(48:26):
and talk to me about something, talk about the kids.
She knew three things at the same time. There's no
way I could. I'm gonna end up actually throwing the
cell phone into the pot to cook it and go, whoops.
I should have done that because I don't multitask, well,
most guys don't. I mean I probably multitask bear in
the average bear. I've had to learn. You do that

(48:48):
when you run a recording studio and you've got you know,
umpty channels up there with humpting, different guys playing empty,
different things all the same time. You got to kind
of learn to multitask. But I did it more by
rote and just habit. But women tend to do that
better than eyes. For example, when a man goes shopping,
he knows what he wants. And I've worked retails, I've

(49:09):
seen this, and of course I'm a dude. So when
a guy goes into i don't know, Target or Walmart
or whatever, he knows what he's there for. There's a
certain thing he wants to get wants get in, get out.
He's walking fast, he's got his card, or maybe he's
a little basket or maybe nothing. Want to know where
this and that's at. He just wants to go in,

(49:31):
get it. See the comparative prices on the shelf. Probably
get the cheapest one that's still gonna work and then
or that's gonna satisfy whatever the particular thing is he's doing,
or if he's got to get you know, pick up
something for the wife. You know that she's gonna cook
her he's gonna cook something for the barbecue Saturday. He
knows what he wants, He goes in, gets it, gets out.
Most guys are gonna be wandering around the store shopping.

(49:53):
A woman goes, well, yeah, I need some things, but
you know there's some things I want to Look at
the prices on this, well look at that. I'm all
try this on im, you know. So, the the guy
wants he wants his trip to Walmart or Target or
Low's or home depotment. He wants that trip to be
about five ten minutes in and out. The miss is,
on the other hand, well, she's going there to shop.

(50:17):
The guy's going there not to shop. Guys going there
to get something get out. In most cases, I know
there's exceptions, but and in most cases, the wife is
you know, the hubbies wants in and out. The wife
is like, well, I want to look at this one.
Wait a minute, I want to compare that. Well, I
want to look at this. Oh, I love the color
of that. Who cares about the color? Does it work?

(50:42):
What's the price? I don't care if it's purple with
polka dots. What's the price? Is it going to function?
I don't care what it looks like. I don't care
what color the exterior paint is. I want to if
the thing's going to be reliable or ark. So I'm
not coming back here in three months to trade it
in or exchange it with a warranty situation. See that's
what guys think, all right. So there are differences, and

(51:04):
that's okay. That's okay. A man wants his shopping experience
to be ten minutes. The woman doesn't care for hers.
As an iron and a half, I've seen guys trailing
behind the wife and they've got this look of just
complete consternation on their face, like when do I get

(51:24):
out of this hell? You know, and the wife is
just having the best time, and he's like, Okay, you know,
I got things I gotta do, places I gotta be
I got this project that I'm working on. I don't
have an iron a half to stand here and target.
Let's can we just can we? Are we ready? Did
you get what you need? I mean, you know, you
see it. Come on, you see the guy walking behind

(51:45):
the wife and he's like, you know, how to be
walking behind the wife, and he's like he just has
that look. You know. I've always said that these big
retail box stores, I'll have a place like the guys
to go to, like a little mini sports bar or something,
you know, where the guys can go. Yeah, honey, you
go shopping. I'm gonna go over here with these other
guys and uh, you know, they've got they've got some

(52:05):
frewer nerves over here. They've got some free hot wings
and some snacks, and they got the game on. And
I'm gonna go over here and you just let me
know when you're done shopping. Okay, I think I think
that would do great in one of the big boxes.

(52:26):
But that's my opinion. What do I know? All Right,
So anyway, on with this story. She got a zero.
Now the grade was just to give you an idea
what the ceiling was. The most points you could get
was a twenty five. I guess that's like an A
or an A plus. So she received zero points out

(52:49):
of twenty five on the essay. Now, she had a
professor who was transgender named mel Curtis and said that
miss Folnick failed to use empirical evidence, call parts of
her essay offensive, called an entire group of people, did
monicus how the offensive especially in a minoritized population. The

(53:09):
instructor wrote on grating a platform full neck. He says
she followed the assignment guidelines and should not be penalized
for her religious viewpoints because again the guidelines were very open,
the guidelines that were required by the way empirical evidence
on anything there was an opinion as a viewpoint, argue
your opinion, your thoughts. She thought it was. She should
not be penalized. Unfair forre to be penalized for religious views.

(53:31):
Oh you officials appoint to the formal great appeal process
as a student awaits awaited the decision. Of course they've
had the decision now, of course, turning point, oh you
jumped in there with her. A report from Notabisa, a
TPUSA posting was viewed by tens of millions of people
in just days. The assignment was read was to read

(53:54):
an essay on gender and respond with a reflection. He
decided to respond by arguing that the erosion of gender
roles in society is part of the problem, and that
articles like the one for the assignment are attempting to
do that. Instead, she said, what we call gender norms
are simply the outworking of God's design for men and women.
The report said the students said God made male and

(54:15):
female and made us differently from each other on purpose
and for purpose, and God is very intentional with what
he makes, and I believe trying to change that would
only do more harm. Further, she wrote, society pushing the
lie that there are multiple genders and everyone should be
whatever they want to be, she said, is demonic and
severely harms American youth. Unquote. Kurk claimed that the gender

(54:35):
ideologies being pushed are the result of callous years developing
psychological and scientific evidence for these claims and directly interacting
with the communities involved. Well, any first year biology student
will tell you there's male and there's female, and that's
pretty much. Yet, you know, there are defects that can happen, Yes,

(54:58):
there are these, one in the million worth the effects
that can happen where some people are born with both
functioning genital parts. That does happen. That's incredibly rare. We're
not talking about, you know, an anomaly. We're talking about
the vast, fast, vast, vast, vast, vast majority of human
beings are born to the male or female, complete with

(55:22):
the skeletal structure to support the genitalia and the gender differences. Okay,
not to be responded to the claim about sex and gender.
Not only is this false about the teaching assistants, claim
the assistant professor if you want to call them that.
Not only is this false, but it also is a

(55:44):
fallacious appeal to authority that is based entirely on ideological
idea born from Marxism, reaching back to Rousseau and beyond
that humans are malleable widgets without a defined nature or instruction.
Manual and report explained that the fact that the expert
class has used their expertise to lends scientific validi or

(56:07):
quasi signs their relidities. What a'll be called to this
religious belief system does not mean that it is any
more empirical than full Necki's Christian faith that teaches that
God made us male and female in his own image
Genesis one twenty seven. By the way, if you whe
where that came from. All right, so that's the backdrop.
You with me so far? Okay, that's the backdrop. Well,

(56:30):
some folks weren't having it. And in fact, in fact,
let me let you hear first from the student and
then I'm will let you hear from a politician that
got a pretty vicious threat sent to them. But let
me let you hear from Samantha herself. She was on
Fox News one of the morning time shows, I believe

(56:54):
it was. She was on Fox News, and here's what
she was chatting on about.

Speaker 11 (57:04):
I was told to get my opinion on gender stereotypes
and gender norms.

Speaker 1 (57:09):
So that's what I did.

Speaker 11 (57:10):
I didn't think that was me needing to be braver
have courage. I thought I was just sharing my opinion
like I was asked to do. So that's what I did.
And I talked about the Bible and what God says
about gender norms and about how there are two genders
and things like that. And the response I got back
was a zero on that paper and the TA saying

(57:30):
that my writing was offensive and.

Speaker 1 (57:33):
That I needed more empathy.

Speaker 2 (57:36):
Now, a lawmaker got some vicious threats for defending this
student who got a zero for championing the Bible that's
being parted by jokovac ruld in it daily. He said
on one of the social media camps for people who
opposed guns, they should like to use them. No, Oklahoma
state representative was not getting vicious and lethal threats after
coming to the defense of a Christian student who received

(57:56):
a zero grade from a transgender teaching assistant merely for
championing God gender rolls outline in the Bible. And now
the Republican lawmaker's name is Gabe Wooley, and he actually
shared an audio of one of the menacing messages. I'll
play it for you. By the way, this was sent
to him. Okay, this is like a phone message, right.

Speaker 12 (58:20):
This is a message for Representative Gabe Woolly. Could you
please pass his message on to him, Tell him to
put a gun in his mouth and pull a tringer
for all of our sakes.

Speaker 1 (58:28):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
By yeah. So he uh getting that kind of heat,
he says, expressed support for Samantha Fulnicky, a student at
the University of Oklahoma who was given a failing grade
by Mel Kurth, a graduate teaching assistant who is a

(58:49):
man pretending to be a woman anyway, uh, he condemned
the student's reverences to the Bible, Kurts did and faith,
and instead insisted she should teachers ideologies. Teacher has since
been removed from the classroom. By the way, he said,
I support Samantha in this read or essay a former educator.

(59:11):
Don't feel that I could see how that could receive
a zero. I'll let you hear him in his own words,
because he put out a response this again on social
media video of himself talked about this.

Speaker 13 (59:27):
I just finished doing an interview with The New York
Times about the OU student Samantha that received a zero
grade on an assignment from a professor's teacher's aide who
works under the professor and does a lot of the
grading and feedback. And there's just a few things that
I want to highlight here. First off, I support Samantha
in this. I read her essay as a former educator,

(59:47):
and I also sit on the A and B Education
Subcommittee in the House of Representatives. I don't see how
that could receive a zero. When she turns something in
with a significant amount of writing, it kind of makes
me wonder if there is potential bias diferences taking place
with this tea creating the TA also gives a comment
that something was offensive on the dashboard communicating between students

(01:00:09):
and the teachers. That's a personal opinion. And then this
TA goes on to talk about scientific reasoning or evidence
and things like this, but then inserts his own opinion
into the feedback on the dashboard, which taxpayers are paying for.
This is a publicly funded university and all the systems
and all the things they pay for and use utilize

(01:00:30):
taxpayer dollars. This is not a private entity this professor
and well, rather the TA that's under this professor, who
apparently denies basic elements of science, the fact that there
are only two genders, also references the sciences of psychology, sociology,
and biology in his comments to the student, but ultimately

(01:00:53):
in this professor's apparently in their lifestyle and in their identity,
which is also put on the dashboard for the university's
communication using they them or she heard them pronouns. Is
is basically rejecting science and then talking about claiming science
on this. So it's all very concerning questioning. I don't

(01:01:16):
think that this ta should be employed at a publicly
funded university. The taxpayers are paying for that. The majority
of Oklahomans and constituents in my district that I've spoken with,
this is not the ideology that they want to see,
especially in a class that's supposed to be promoting an
underlying with science and research.

Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
Yeah. Not just well again, it was opinion based thing.
And then I mean, you know, in the system, professor
has a right to his opinion, but not to the
point of punishing, if you will, the student because he
just disagreed with her opinion. It was an opinion piece,
is what they Ractually when I asked you a quote,
you know, who won the Peloponnesian Wars or something, something

(01:01:57):
that's an historical fact, something that you you know, there
is some empirical evidence on, so to speak. But really
there is empirical evidence on this. It's called science.

Speaker 14 (01:02:06):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
It's funny these same people that argue on to follow science,
they don't follow it, do they? Well, it's not convenient
for their particular ideology. Yeah, there's some some kooky shrinks
and psych people and psych professors and sociology people and
sociology professors, and and you know, the guys with the

(01:02:27):
spectacles and the little mustache and sitting there hunched over
at their little desk and their little liverry tower somewhere and.

Speaker 8 (01:02:33):
Going, well, you know, we've done some research, and you
just show that there are some people who truly believe
that even though they're born fully functional males, if they
do design that they want to be a female, that
somehow nature created a mistake. Then well, you know, they
see fits in their mind to go ahead and dress

(01:02:54):
up as a woman, act as a woman, and pretend
to be a woman. And then you know, it's we
can kind of categorize that is something that's in society
and in nature that needs to be recognized, and then
then that's that's okay, And and we can call that
perhaps a third, fourth, or fifth type of gender and
give it to an assignment, and that's just what we are.

(01:03:15):
Little studies have shown.

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
Well, okay, And and you know, you can believe that
it's free country can believe whatever the heck, you want
to believe, you can believe you're not really a human being.
Your's pace on from planets or bone. That's fine. You
probably need medication in some long time on a psychiatrist couch.
You need Jesus. Really, what we got need to boil
it down to, you need Jesus. But okay, fine, but

(01:03:41):
that's opinion too. That's just something that's not really science either,
all right, because you can look at the biology, and
a biological scientist will freely admit that they're You know,
when a kid comes out, barring birth defects, and we
know that there are defects that can happen one in
a million or whatever. You're born with the fully functioning

(01:04:02):
male genitalia and the male structure or the female Okay,
that's it. There's nothing in between. There's no there's no
particular little hybrids or whatever. Again, I know that there's
once in a while, great once a while. There are
no birth defects that can happen. I get that. But
by and large, vast, fast, fast, fast, majority of the
time of the time, you're born one or the other,

(01:04:26):
and that's it, and you grow up to be one
or the other gardless of how you feel. Okay, but
see that we I've said this so many times before
in the age of Oprah and doctor Drew, doctor Phil
and doctor whoever was. Who's it? What's it? It's about feelings? Well, Bob,

(01:04:49):
but she says that to you. How do you? How
do you feel? How does it make you feel? It's
about feelings, and feelings are pre eminent, They take price
and preeminence over everything because our society is all about
a feeling. And this guy was what he was offended. Therefore,
I'm going to punish you with his u because you
offended me. You see that his whole focus, in the

(01:05:14):
in the pre eminence, in this whole thing, was his felings.
And see that's what we have stress in society and
in universities, and and in the think tanks and in
the institutions of lower and higher learning. It's about feelings.
I've warned that we would come to a moment in time.
We're there, let me welcome you where feelings would reign

(01:05:37):
supreme over everything and in fact replace reality. So we
are in a moment in our history where feelings, where
perception were how I feel replaces reality. Well, I feel

(01:05:57):
that I was born as space alien and I'm not
from this planet. I just know it. It's the way
I feel. I feel like a cat because I want
to lick my arms, and I want to eat raw liver,
and I just want to reach in and grab and

(01:06:20):
kill my goldfish and play with it while it's dead
on the floor. I'm a cat. I'm a cat caught
in a human body. I've got the spirit of a
cat in me. You know, I feel like that. So
that's that person's reality. Now, twenty thirty forty years ago,
we would have someone like that in a psychiatrists office
or on medication and a psych word. Now, oh no,

(01:06:42):
we're gonna have a We're gonna actually have a parade
for you. For cat people. I'm talking about people who
like cats and sis. I'm ting people who feel like
they're cats. We're gonna have a parade for all the
cat people. Well, you know, there was the cat woman
in the you know, in the in the comics, uh
stirrips their Batman and all answer. So now we're going
to you know, we put we have a parade for

(01:07:02):
folks like this. Okay, this is where we've come, and
this is how wacky and sick o. Our society is
commun if you want, if you want barometric pressure readings
of where we've we've come in society and how desperately
our society needs us. The people in our society need

(01:07:25):
a lord and savior. I'm not saying that should be
government institutionalized by the way that should be, That should
be a choice. Uh, don't don't get mad at me, Calvinists.
I'm just simply saying, but that that's what people need.
That's there in lies. You know the answer uh to

(01:07:46):
all this wackiness, inzaniness and craziness. Uh, finally on this story,
we'll move on. They're gonna break here in a second.
There's a professor who slammed the zero grade for the
Oklahoma students Biblical as say, as punitive, very inappropriate. Of course,
the punitive was punishing you heard my feelings, someone to
punish you, and in fact, the lawmaker who's defending you,

(01:08:10):
he needs to go kill himself.

Speaker 8 (01:08:12):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:08:14):
And these are the actions of what I've often referred
to as the LGBTQ plus whatever mafia. You know, the
guy that shot Charlie Kirk, by the way, I mean,
in fact, this lawmaker said you know this in this
age of you know, post Charlie Kirk and by the way,

(01:08:36):
that guy was all, uh, pro LGBTQ whatever. I'm not saying,
pro LGBTQ person out there is violence reaching for guns.
Don't hear what I'm saying, not what I'm not saying.
I've got friends who are in that community. Okay, they're
not They're not violent people. But there are people in
that community who've taken on a Mafios type attitude and saying,

(01:08:56):
by God, you will accept my ideology and I'm I
and I am going to punish you if you don't. Okay,
you will agree with me, or you will be punished
if you don't. By me. Talk about insecurity, about your
own position. If you're secure in your position and your

(01:09:18):
ideology in your belief system, you need to go around
punishing with guns and beating whatever, beating people up or
giving them bad grades, or you know, shooting a guy
because you disagree with what he says. It's just sitting
there talking to some college kids. That shows a weakness
in your position, to be reported by Peter Broscow, Fox
News Press are also criticized the teaching assistants lazy, rubric

(01:09:42):
for the assignment. Now they don't call them a student
fluck by the Ta Italian Christian beliefs directs others to
push back. Considered a professor at the University of was Canson,
he weighed in on this whole recent controversy. They weighed
in on the controversy. It's riding, Samantha Folnick, a University
of Oklahoma student, quote, to give a zero on an

(01:10:05):
assignment like this, especially the way the assignment was worded,
I think, really, unless there's something I'm missing, I feel
like it has to be punitive, said UW. River Falls
Professor Trevor Tamesh. Well, yeah, of course it was. It's
all it was to measure made it clear that he
speaks for himself and not on behalf of the university.
Was Canson system said that in his classroom, to give

(01:10:27):
a student a zero requires outright cheating on behalf of
the student or simply not turning in the assignment at all.
It's not zero worthy for sure. And if you follow
the rubric specifically that was given, I can't really justify
taking off that many points because it was a very
lazy rubric. According to Tamesh, scon's professor later criticized a
response to Polnicki's teaching assistant William mel Kerr that as

(01:10:51):
is very inappropriate Flick Junior the University of Oklahoma was
funked by mel who uses the she they pronound or
an assignment that required reading a paper about the results
of a study of eighty four middle schoolers and the
impact on how binary gender norms impact them. When I

(01:11:13):
was asked reading an article and give my opinion on
the article, and the article was about gender binary mental
health and gender stereotypes specifically in shildren because it's a
lifespan development class. That's what she told Fox News Digital Monday.
But through it for the assignment worth twenty five points
in total, provided the three criteria for responding to the paper,
which was titled relations among gender typically peer relations and

(01:11:35):
mental health during early adolescents. So anyway, this professor said, yeah,
this has a bit over the top, maybe a point
or two here or there, but it is zero no way.
But again, this is the attitude, sadly of a lot
of these folks. They see they're threatened by that, and

(01:11:57):
there's I think some anti God stuff in there. God
messed up, God made a mistake. There's churches now. I
shared this last time I did a show. There's churches.
Now everybody had a great Thanksgiving. By the way, that
areic kind of saying, well, yeah, God does mess up.
God can't make mistakes. Really, so we don't have a

(01:12:18):
perfect God and a perfect Savior. We have a kind
of a messed up God and messed up Savior. Wow. Okay,
that really sort of throws a wrench in the whole
biblical narrative there, doesn't it. So how are we who
are messed up going to be saved by someone who's
just as messed up and as we are? Then, yes,
Jesus became human, but he was sinless in his humanity.

(01:12:39):
That's part of the Orthodox story case, so historic analysis
of the Christian faith. That's the creed. Okay, yes, God
became flesh though he was sinless in his humanity. He
never sinned, he was a spotless lamb. If he was
just mixed crew up, then uh, we've got a problem, Houston,

(01:13:06):
big problem. But that's really what that's saying, Well, God
messed up. Now we're not talking like a cosmetic surgery
to fix I don't know, take a moa off or
you know, correct a birth defect. Okay. God also made
plastic surgeons. Yes, he made doctors who do incredible, wonderful,

(01:13:27):
miraculous things to kind of straighten us out. We get
sick or sometimes have a malady or something that we've inherited. Okay,
that doesn't mean God made a mistake. That's called sin
coming into the world, corrupting everything because Adam and Eve
messed up and God allows consequences. He said death. He said,
don't eat this stuff, don't eat this fruit over here

(01:13:47):
on this tree of knowledge, because if you do, eventually
you're going to die. Or Satan said, naw, it's just
God's way. God's pulling your leg on that. When God's
really trying to be sneaky because you know, as you
eat that fruit, He's just saying that to you Eve,
because you knows you eat that fridge gonna be like him.
God's pulling a fasten on you. Lead Eve. Okay, she
bought it her cline and sinker, and then Adam bought

(01:14:11):
it after she bought it. When she finally realized, oh
I messed up, I'm getting here. I ain't gonna be
in this alone, getting at him in here, with me.
So Adam, you know, went along with it. You know,
so it was on the honeydew list. Wife said to
do it, gotta do it, you know, God said, don't

(01:14:33):
I gotta do it, happy wife, happy life. You know,
he went ahead and ate that piece of that forbidden
fruit pie and look out. So but God held them,
God held them responsible for those choices, because you remember
Adam said, well, you know, I wouldn't be in this boat.
You know, this woman you gave me, you know, he

(01:14:53):
would even call her Eve, he said this, He didn't
even call her Eve. He said, this woman you gave me,
you know, we wouldn't be in this mess. God, if
you had to give me this one other word being blind,
God messed up. This woman you gave me is the
one that tempted me here. So you know it's kind
of your fault. God, don't look at me. You can't
give me this. We had a good thing going here
in this garden til you gave me this, this woman
over here. And now like what she did, she she
deceived me. God's like, ah, yeah, all right, yeah, I

(01:15:19):
don't think so, dude, God didn't buy that one. Let's
take a pause. Well, I think I made the point.

This is the family comedy minute. Let's enjoy some fun
with the comedy of Rich Frater.

Speaker 10 (01:16:38):
We were supposed to get married on May twenty second,
but we got married on July thirtieth. The day before
the wedding. We got into our only argument. We broke
up right before the wedding. True story, everything was all
planned that we broke up and we decided. You know,
it just takes some time, and it was one of
the saddest days of my life. But the good news was,
I said, a bunch of money. Our current turnans by
switching a guy.

Speaker 11 (01:16:56):
Go.

Speaker 10 (01:17:00):
But I think when God was creating the woman, I
think he was walking around going, what can I create
that would confuse and baffle the man so much that
his only choice will be to turn to me.

(01:19:05):
and shout outs to those folks who have been putting
up with this show for let's see about I think
a year and a half in three years, respectively. We're
glad and happy to be a part of those those
two little networks there. All right, you are getting bigger
by the way the anti Christian bigotry is. You know,

(01:19:25):
it's there, it's present, but it's parallel with the anti
Semitism which is also arising in this country. Bad sign.
And they're parallel and by the way, Jews have been
warning Christians for years. Look he you know, we've been
the ones kind of picked on here, but y'all are next.
I remember hearing that more than twenty years ago. You're next. Ye'ah.

(01:19:50):
Well we're there. But at the same time, it seems
like both bigotry against both have ramped up pretty significantly.
But anyway, New York City school blocks Holocaust survivor speaking
to kids, Reported by Michael Katz, a Brooklyn middle school
principal denied of parents request a Holocaust survivor speak to

(01:20:11):
students about anti Semitism, say the survivor's pro Israel views
were not appropriate for a public school. Really why The
decision was defended by Mary Eric Adams administration. Yeah. Aaron Rush,

(01:20:34):
the principal at MS four four seven in Bourham Hill,
I think I'm pronouncing that right, wrote to the parent
November eighteen, saying Nazi labor camp survivor Sammy Stiegmann's opinions
would not be right for the school. The New York
Post reported Tuesday, Well, why quoting looking at his website material.

(01:20:54):
Also don't think that Sammy's presentation is right for our
public schools setting, given his messages around Israel and Palestine.
Rosee said, I'd love to explore other speakers, she said,
according to the Post, adding that the lectures about the
Holocaust and combating any Semitism are still welcome, just with
certain guidelines. We don't want any Zionists coming in here. Stephen,

(01:21:21):
by the way, who eighty five is on address Israel's
war against Rhanian back to mos terrorists on his homepage
or in his bio. According to the Post and online lectures,
he has said he is a proud Jew who supports
Israel and the Jewish State's right to defend itself from
enemies such as some moths. What's happening in the Middle East.

(01:21:41):
We will prevail, We will win, he said the lecture
posted on YouTube. According to the Post, in every generation
they tried to annihilate us, we have prevailed. He has
also urged students to join Stand with Us, an international
and nonpartisan israel education organization that says it works to
inspire people of all backgrounds, religions and faiths, challenge misinformation

(01:22:01):
and fight anti Semitism. Quote. Life is based on the
choices who make choose wisely a hero. Adams always defended
Russia's decision, saying Stickmann wasn't a right fit for the school.
Barry Adams is dedicated to ensuring all New Yorkers, well, well,
unless you are a Jew who Thinksesral should defend themselves,
ensuring all New Yorkers, particularly our students and young adults,

(01:22:24):
hear stories from the genocide and the depression of Holocausts
so we never again perpetrates achieval The City Hall spokesman
told the Post. As long as they're not pro Israeli,
you know, that's as long as they're the pro Palestinian,
then they're cool. But if they are kind of pro
Israeli or believe the original should defend itself, well not
so much. New York City Council Member Ina Averni Koff

(01:22:47):
Ukrainian born Jew, and she's from Brooklyn, by the way,
accused rush of censorship and discrimination. Quote is particularly at
Aberin to deny someone who lived through the wars of
the Holocaust the opportunity to share his experience with students,
particularly during a time when anty Semitism is skyrocketing among
our youth. Not only does behavior repugnant, but the school
is potentially engaging in viewpoint discrimination and violation of the

(01:23:09):
First Amendment. Yes we are, and of equal protection that
covers religious and that thing discrimination. Yes they are. To
see public schools engaging in this conduct is unsurprising and
we will not say idly by, she said. Ristal City
is part of education. Not respond to the post request
for comment like a catch. By the way, as a
Newsmax reporter, this came out on Newsmachs and in the

(01:23:32):
Post as well. So anyway, yeah, well only if you're
you can come to talk to the kids. Only if
you're a good Jew. By good you meaning in full
support of Palestine river to the sea, if you think
Israel has a right to defend itself. We don't want
to hear from you. You're a bad Jew. Go away.

(01:23:55):
That's that's the guidelines. That's that's the new guidelines. Got
it all right, don't forget it. Got to keep you,
got to keep you Hebrews in line. Sometimes you get
out of you get out of line, get out of hand.

(01:24:15):
You start running too many industries and and sorry for
us to compete with you. You use zion su and
ma'am donna, ma'am donnie mad man, ma'm donnie. The commie
his true colors are coming out regarding all this. Yeah,
check this out being putted by a C. Douglas Golden

(01:24:38):
the Western Ri's a cool name. See Douglas Golden. Isn't
that a cool name? You just walk into a room? Ay,
what's your name? Se Douglas Golden. It's a cool name
from the Western Journal. I wonder what the sea stands for.
I don't know. I'd almost forgotten about to me Mallory,

(01:25:01):
nanny Semite, who was one of the organizers behind the
women's march here, I thought the pic niccap squad had
gone away. Apparently not.

Speaker 10 (01:25:09):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:25:09):
Exhibit A. This weeks are in a mandami mayor elect
of America's biggest city, a man who looks for all
appearances like well, not only a Marxist but an anti Semite,
but who insists he's not quite that radical and definitely
not a nanty Semite. Yet thanks to him, the disgrace

(01:25:30):
to Mallory will get a second chance of political life.
That correy to Fox News, Mallory will be one of
four hundred esteemed leaders and experts that he is tapping
to be a part of his administration to make a
transition from mayor elect to Mayor of New York City
to make a mallory an open anti Semite people he appointed.

(01:25:56):
The Mayor elect said in the November twenty four statement,
will be instrumental to ensuring we hit the ground were
running on January first, and that our results aligned with
the promises we've made. It left for hard work, deep
belief in the promise of New York City, and commitment
to the affordability agenda that New Yorkers are demanding. Unite
the more than four hundred experts we have appointed to

(01:26:18):
our transition committees. Today, Ma'm donnie said, now that whole
affordability mantra, you've noticed a lot of people are running
on that. Well, it's in the talking points. A lot
of people are running on affordability, well because they saw
it kind of work for the Orange Man, love him
or hate him. He got into office because people were

(01:26:41):
alarmed at what was going on or a border or
lack thereof at our border and skyrocketing inflation making things
rather unaffordable. So now the borders kind of quasi under control.
All that's left is the economics. So the catchphrase affordability,

(01:27:07):
of course, you got to understand and I've said this
before when the communists and the socialists, the Marxists, they
play the word games, the word salad games. This is
all streated out of Clowd and Piven solids key rules
for radical rules for radicals. They pour something into those
words and phrases that may be a little different than

(01:27:28):
what the normal or the average guy or gal is
going to be thinking up in their nogging. Okay, they
play the word games. They put you onto the playground,
the jungle gym, if you will of semantics. All right,
play the word games, the word salads people, he had pointed.
The Marilex said in a November twenty fourth statement, will

(01:27:50):
be in stamental and ensuring that we hit the ground running.
Excellence is the guiding light driving this transition, and today's
committee appointees are no exception to go to. These leaders
will help prepare Mayor electmam Nani's administration to take on
the city's toughest challenges, from housing access to emergency preparedness
to the day to day operations of city government. That

(01:28:11):
must be exceptional. Alan of Leopold, the executive director of
the transition team, said, if this is a guiding light,
New Yorkers have a rough four years out of them,
as Mallory is on the Committee on Community Safety, which
might surprise some people who want a safe community and
aren't familiar with Zoran's message, which can be best described

(01:28:33):
as defund and disguise. I definitely quote, I definite support
the term defund the police. I am not the author
of it, but I have adopted the language, she said
in a twenty twenty interview, especially thinking about Black Lives
Matter and the organization and the movement of Black Lives
and others who have really coined the phrase and have

(01:28:54):
been pushing it out there. I support it one hundred percent,
but apparently those Jewish life not so much my words.
You want to say, Quaid, do you believe that one
day we can abolish police? She said later in the interview, Well,
when Jesus returns, maybe your later reviews hadn't changed you

(01:29:16):
from the police, she tweeted twenty twenty one. Mallory also
supported the anti Semitic leader of the Nation of Islam,
Louis Farrakhan, which she called the Goat meaning greatest of
all time. I think it's important to put my attendance,
my presence at Savior's Day, which is the highest holy
day for the Nation of Islam in proper context, she
said when confronted about the support of Phara Khan on

(01:29:38):
The View in twenty nineteen as a leader, as a leader,
as a black leader in a country that is still
dealing with some very serious, unresolved issues as it relates
to the black experience in this country. She was then
asked to condemn Affair Kon's statements by now former panelist
Meghan McCain. As I said, I don't agree with many
administer Phera Khan's statements, she answered, as close she came,

(01:30:03):
Megan pressure on and said you condemn them. She went,
she said, I don't agree with with these statements. At
the end of the day, she said, Kaine interrupted her
to say that she would not condemn them. She just said,
it's not my language. In other words, she wouldn't have
said it quite like that. I guess that's what she means.
Who knows what she means. That's probably with these politicians.

(01:30:24):
They you know, they're flim flim flammy. So anyway, here's
a flim flammy and he semite on mad men men.
Donnie's little team there shove all the hands of anybody
shocked or prize. Just take a break. I've got more,
always more. There's a problem with some of the Somali

(01:30:49):
well legal and legal immigrants up in Minnesota. We're gonna
get into that more.

Speaker 4 (01:30:58):
Time continues next with Ritty else more Christian taught that rocks.

Speaker 2 (01:31:03):
Next.

Speaker 15 (01:31:05):
Oooh, this is Max macclin. God created all things by
his word. How does the word have the power to
create because his word is a person? Listen to the
Bible from John One. In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

(01:31:26):
He was with God in the beginning. Through him, all
things were made. Without him, nothing was made that has
been made. In him was life, and that life was
the light of men. The light shines in.

Speaker 3 (01:31:41):
The darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. He
was in the world, and though the world was made
through him, the world did not recognize him. From John One.
Listen to the Bible. It's great for the soul.

Speaker 14 (01:31:59):
You're more at Radio Bible dot org.

Speaker 7 (01:32:02):
And to know a man whose secret ambition is to
become a host of a Japanese game show Pritchio.

Speaker 2 (01:32:17):
All right, So there's an issue, a situation that's happening.
It's been happening him in Minneapolis, which is where there's
an enclave of a lot of Somali immigrants, both legal
and illegal. I mean, that's not the only place in
the country, but that seemed to be usually high, if
you want to call it, that concentration of folks there,

(01:32:39):
And in recent days and years they've been busted while
basically committing various types of aid and welfare fraud and
getting themselves into housing and things that the otherwise really
wouldn't qualify for, and so on and so forth. So
it's been a problem, and there's been some crime issues

(01:33:01):
that have developed, and some of these neighborhoods, not all
of them, but in some of them that have gotten
pretty out of hand in recent days recent years. It's
kind of like they brought their stuff from their country
with them, you know, which isn't always good to bring
the you know, the negative thing. I mean, as we
who left that country don't bring up with you and

(01:33:22):
came here. Well, some of them brought it with them.
Let's just say, some of the things that were creating
problems there, they unfortunately packed them in the bag and
they brought them with them. And some of their their views.
So it's created an issue. And I think probably what's

(01:33:48):
happened in Minneapolis, the more I've looked into it and
dug into it and done a little homework on this
is there's been sort of hands off from the local
government and the state government been kind of a hands
off of these people, sort of an attitude, well, they
came here, you know, from this really bad country that

(01:34:09):
was having problems, and they're trying to bear themselves, and
we need to come some slack. And yeah, they're doing
some fraud, and you know, they're they're scamming and scheming
and and they they've created some some welfare scams and
frauds and housing scams and so on and so forth.
They're pulling a bunch of standing agains, but you know
it comes from slack because you know, they came from
this really bad country, okay, and we're just not going

(01:34:34):
to really be really aggressive with this stuff. A few
of them they've taken to court. There's a few of
them in court right now, federal court. Because you know,
welfare fraud of any kind, especially when it involves you know,
federal government welfare kind of stuff, and you're scamming. Well, yeah,

(01:34:56):
you can go to jail for that. You can get
busted out for that. Pretty bad. And ICE is on
its way up. They're probably already there now. The mayor
is like, yeah, I know, we're not We're not gonna
work with you ICE people. In fact, we're gonna work
against you. Wanna welcome me?

Speaker 8 (01:35:13):
You know this is this is wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:35:17):
They're they're some people that are there legally from Somalia
and other communities. They're going to see about getting them
process for deportation, bigure about get them out. Some of
these folks, there's already court orders that they're serving. They'll
be serving court orders signed off on by both Democrat
and Republican federal judges. So many of these are, like

(01:35:38):
in so many cases are stale. They've been on the
books for a while. And these people have been ducking
and dodging, and some of the locals have been covering
for him in the sanctuary of city mentality and not
and on and on, you know the usual story that
you hear about this. Okay, and they're not and the

(01:35:58):
mayor Fry, whose brain is fried, yeah, I think, is
not going to work with him. It's bring word about
Jim Hoff Gateway pundit. Mayor Jack and Fry declares he
won't cooperate with eyes and then he said he started
speaking Somali to his audience mid speech. I'll let you
hear it, meaning up his mayor Chacken Fry. Uh, he's uh.

(01:36:25):
He roptly shifted public address into Somali a while promising
that city police will refuse cooperate with federal immigration enforcement,
which I mean fine, I don't know if they necessarily
need him. A press conference city held Tuesday phrased tod
alongside Saint Paul Mayer, Melvin Carter, Ward six, council member
Jamal Ausman, police Chief Brian O'Hara, and other city leaders

(01:36:48):
reacting to reports that the federal government is preparing a
targeted immigration enforcement operatation operation in Minnesota's twin cities. The
planned operation reportedly intends to employ some one hundred federal
agents to focus on a residence of Similite descent, including

(01:37:08):
both documented immigrants and those with final deportation orders. And again,
those are orders signed off on by federal judges. They've
had their new process, they've had their day in court,
they've had their hearings, YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA. Now
they have those those orders have to be served. That
is their job. That is a federal government's responsibility. That
is the administration's responsibility. That is Donald Trump's Responsibilitycau's in

(01:37:32):
the White House, there's Joe Biden's. By the way, towards
gen of his administration suddenly started picking up some speed
on that and started finding, you know, finally started implementing
some of that. They drug heel, the bid administration, drug
heel all of these deportation orders until the bit are
in there. Then to make themselves look a little bare,
they started you know, uh, serving them a lot more aggressively.

(01:37:57):
And that's still going on. They're being served.

Speaker 6 (01:38:01):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:38:02):
And now he's you're gonna hear the mayor here in
just a moment. I'll play the clip. He claims to
be proud to be the home to the largest smaller
community in the country. Okay, all right, nothing necessarily wrong
with that. Okay. As someone who's a mixed depth, nisty

(01:38:23):
and raced myself, okay, I get that. That's fine. I'm
not it's small in but you know, okay, nothing's wrong
with having your city or your county or your state
having the largest particular ethnic population whatever it is Asian,
Chinese or whatever, Lithuanian. Whatever. Uh, that's fine, that's fine.

(01:38:48):
Is that's wrong with that? My town of origin. I
was born in San Antonio, Texas prey our percentage. Obviously
at the Hanos and Hispanics maxic they were grants, etcetera, etcetera.
Nothing wrong with that. Okay, okay, but let me let

(01:39:12):
you hear from the mayor.

Speaker 14 (01:39:21):
But we need to also be demanding better from administration
who is intent on targeting people and committing so much time,
energy and money to terrorizing certain groups within our community.

Speaker 2 (01:39:34):
That's terrorism.

Speaker 14 (01:39:36):
That's not what we are about. Every single person in
our cities.

Speaker 17 (01:39:43):
And so to our Somali community, Daman Shabka, Somaliied Kunul Minnesota,
Gottajan Minneapolis, Juan Daniela Hi, Juan kup gereb To Ganahan,
we love you, we stand with you, and we aren't

(01:40:04):
backing down.

Speaker 2 (01:40:06):
Okay, terrorism for these ice guys to enforce federal orders
deportation orders sign off fund by federal judges. These are
stale orders sign off fund by federal judges. Probably all
the books for a few years both Democrat and Republican,
maybe an independent or tooth on the libertarian who knows

(01:40:28):
federal judges. These are court orders. They have to be exercised.
These are deportation orders. Okay, they can't just sit back
and not enforce them. What's been one of the biggest
hues and cries against the Orange Man. He thinks she's
above the law. He doesn't have to bud by the law. Okay, Well,
he's enforcing the law. He's abiding by the law. Well,

(01:40:49):
but not on this one though, he shouldn't be. No,
wait a minute, not on this one. Well, which is it.
Here's no winning. He enforces the law, well, he's a tyrant.
If he doesn't enforce the law or bide by a law,
he's a tyrant. Hey, there's no winning. Okay, just he's
a tyrant either way. Now, look, I'm no apologies with

(01:41:10):
the Trump administration. In fact, I want to hang tigers.
I want to be kind of spanking his administration and
this pensiant that he seems to have for hiring Fox
News reporters to run things, or Fox News talking heads
and hosts to run He's got too many of them
in his administration. I think probably his problem, and not

(01:41:34):
just because somebody's good on TV doesn't necessarily mean they're
good at government, okay, or nor vice versa. So I'll
be getting too that just a little bit later. So
hang tight. I'll be offending the mag of people here
in a bit, some of them. But come on now

(01:41:55):
see an n host and we'll play another clip. Here
went into a well, pretty much went into overtime to
defend a Democratic governor whose state was ripped off by
Somali scammers, to be reported by Harold Hudgesson Daily Calor

(01:42:16):
News Foundation. Seeing in Newsnight host Abby Philip attempted to
defend Democratic Governor Tim Walls of Minnesota on Tuesday against
criticism over a welfare a fraud epidemic, and a state
especially amongst the Somali crowd. They're not the only ones,
but seems to be awful. Prevalent State employees accused Democrat
Governor Tim Walls a Minnesota of engaging in a systemic

(01:42:38):
retaliation against whistleblowers who warned to fraud schemes. This was
Sunday as a Justice Department pursued three federal cases involving
at least a billion bucks in fraud Philip claimed that
the probes were launched during the Biden administration after Republican's
strategist Brad Todd called attention to the scandals. But nevertheless

(01:43:01):
Tim Walls drug his feet on it begs question why,
Well he was running for VP at the time, you know,
and well it looked like he was against dark skinned
people because he was running with Kamala Harris, a woman
of you know, immigration, whose parents and more immigrants and
all that half Indian from India. Let me let you

(01:43:24):
hear this exchange, because it does. But it does beg
a question why did Tim wall I mean, is he
just that inept? Perhaps is just that afraid because he
might be you know, he's a lily white guy. Well
you're a racist. You want to crack down on these
Somali scammers. You just doing it because you're a dark
skin that's all. You're whitey. And see to most politicians

(01:43:50):
of both parties, when you play the race card, when
you call them a racist or a bigot, that's like
kryptonite to Superman. They just they just they they freeze up,
they sees up. They don't know what to do, because
that's the worst thing you can call somebody see. I've
been called racist and biggot on the shows many times.
I don't care. It's like it bounces off of me.
I don't care. I've been call all sorts of names.

(01:44:12):
I've had emails, I've had things in chat boxes, I've
had tweets, you know, you name it. I've had people
coming at me ever since day one, calling me every
name in the book, accusing me of this, Accuse me
of that, blah blah blahlah. Don't care whatever, Get a life,
Get out your parents' basement, Meet Jesus. You need Jesus.
Jesus is what you need. I don't care. It bounces

(01:44:37):
off of me. I know I'm not. And some of
my all challenge Okay, well, if I'm a racist, and
which part of myself my racist against? Is it the
Native American part?

Speaker 3 (01:44:44):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:44:44):
The Hispanic Tojano part?

Speaker 6 (01:44:47):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:44:47):
The olive complexed Greek part? Is it the lily white part?
Which part of me? Which ethnicity? Which race? Am I.

Speaker 11 (01:44:55):
Have?

Speaker 2 (01:44:56):
I got an internal war going on myself, where like
you know, one part of me is racist, agains the
other part, the Native American part of me wants to
scalp the other two parts. Which is it here is
the white part wanting to lynch me? And I don't
know it yet. Which part of me is the racist here? Yeah,
I usually get the crickets on that one. Anyway, let

(01:45:22):
me let you hear this exchange. This is on CNN,
you know, roundtable, different people tossing in by the way
of different races. In fact, you're gonna hear a black guy,
a white guy. Uh, kind of talked about this because
they're they're kind of trying to make about Trump, because
everything is about Trump. It's the yea but Trump. It's
the yabb but Trump syndrome. Yeah but Trump. Okay, yeah

(01:45:42):
but Trump. Okay, you may be right, but Trump. This
says about Trump. This is about some people who scammed local, state,
and federal government to get things that they didn't really
deserve or need. Sometimes is illegal immigrants, sometimes it's legal immigrants.
And now all you know the whistleblowers, the state workers,

(01:46:06):
I'm plenty plenty of whom I'm sure are Democrats, actually
been blowing the whistle to the walls of administration and
they be sort of hitting you know, a ceiling, a
steel ceiling there. It's kind of going anywhere but the
Feds have got involved because it's felony, it's felonious activities.
And now some folks getting drugged in the court and
now they go to serve deportation orders everything else. But

(01:46:26):
let me let you hear this this clip.

Speaker 18 (01:46:31):
I think that's not everyone acknowledges that this is a
real not only a real controversy, it's a real criminal case,
and these people are being tried. However, Trump is basically Trump.
He literally has said they don't contribute anything, they should
go back. We don't want them here.

Speaker 16 (01:46:49):
People who are complaining, et cetera, et cetera, and who
are who come from these these bad countries that they are,
They are bad and we don't want them here. Again.
I think that's how most people who support the president
are going to interpret this. I mean, but this is
really the latest panicked scapegoating because.

Speaker 2 (01:47:07):
Trump is in real trouble in a lot of areas.

Speaker 16 (01:47:10):
He fell asleep four times during this meeting, by the way,
which is raising even more questions about the energy level.

Speaker 2 (01:47:15):
Having you prince for hours.

Speaker 16 (01:47:19):
This year, we've got the war crime situation. Voters increasingly
know he said he was going to bring prices down
prices in fairness, though this is the deflection that I'm
talking about. There is a legitimate issue, and.

Speaker 14 (01:47:29):
Any failures of minist the failure.

Speaker 16 (01:47:31):
Of officials and they're doing, actually permitted this kind of
nonsense to take. Precisely, why people are talking.

Speaker 19 (01:47:39):
About the governor of Minnesota who didn't answer any of
the whistleblowers or the warning signs on this scandal, who
swept it under the rug, nearly became the Vice president
of the United States, and everyone in.

Speaker 10 (01:47:52):
The media ignored this.

Speaker 19 (01:47:54):
The New York Times is just now reporting on a
scandal that's.

Speaker 14 (01:47:57):
Been years in the making. Why and why didn't they
do a deep dive on Tim Walls?

Speaker 18 (01:48:01):
And they can't hold up hold on?

Speaker 2 (01:48:03):
Is this possible?

Speaker 18 (01:48:03):
Wasn't it Merrick Garland of the Biden administration that brought
many of these charges in the first place?

Speaker 14 (01:48:09):
Yes, and Tim, so are.

Speaker 1 (01:48:12):
Democrats.

Speaker 18 (01:48:13):
Democrats ignored it even though a democratic.

Speaker 12 (01:48:16):
Tim Walls, and yes, he ignored it.

Speaker 18 (01:48:19):
Attorney general of a democratic administration says, state prosecuted the case.

Speaker 19 (01:48:23):
A state is fraud and a state program intion.

Speaker 2 (01:48:27):
And she knows that. But it's got to be somehow. Trump.
Everything has to be somehow. Trump's fault. This is sort
of the Trump derangement syndrome thing. Again. I've got it.
I'm fixing the blast is I'm fixing the blast Trump
and his administration here in a minute, so tank type
but because I'm no apologies for the guy, but come on,
this is a state problem. Who runs the state of

(01:48:50):
Minnesota isn't an Orange man. It's Tim Walls. Okay, who
blew it? Who blew it? Who's incompetent? They're right, the
guy's incompetent. It Something tells me he probably will be
governor a lot longer. Could be wrong on that one.
I think if he runs, if he decides to run again,
I think he's He's probably toast in that regard. I

(01:49:10):
don't think the voter is going to be for him.
But uh, you know, it's always but but Trump, but
but but we have to understand that Trump and Trump
and Trump the system about Trump. Now, the DHS is
going to increase operations in the Twin Cities, been reported
by Cooper Williamson the Blaze dot com. Trump administration has

(01:49:31):
increased its attention on Minnesota and investigations into Somali fraud's
games that deportation operations continued to clean up sanctuary cities
across the country to develop. The Department of Homeland and
Security is focusing on another hub of problematic immigration, the
Minneapolis Saint Paul region of Minnesota. The Washington Examiner also
reported that Tom Homan Trump Administration's borders are hinted at

(01:49:51):
end immigration enforcement surge there as soon as this week.
They're probably already there actually, or at least the pre
staging folks. I'm sure they're focuses on the Twin Cities
more because of the criminal activities there that have been
uncovered by the DOJ and DHS. In fact, in the
Fox News appearance on Tuesday, home And suggested that plans
were already in the works to increase resources in the

(01:50:12):
Twin Cities in particular. Quote, I can tell you the
focus is there, it's coming, but I don't want to
give a lot. I can't tell you how many people
are on the ground now, how many people are sees
as many they already are, and how many people are
going to be on the ground. I'll leave that to
the Secretary of Homeland Security. But focus is on those
Twin Cities more because of the criminal activities there that
have been uncovered by the DOJ and DHS home and

(01:50:34):
said in the interview, citing an anonymous source familiar with
the operations. New York Times also reported that the operation
will target Somali's with final deportation orders in the Minneapolis
Saint Paul Regional WARGI. The other people wh've had the
new process, they've had it all. These are final deportation orders.
It's like, that's itsu're done. You've got to go, all right,
don't make a difference whether there's smalies are from planet Mars.

(01:50:55):
They gotta go, green skinned people from Mars or whatever.
You gotta go. Uh, setting an anonymous source for me
with the operations, rope hundred ice agents had been called
in for the operation. Now like that's going in the
New York Times. It could be more than that could
be less than who knows, you know, New York Times
is uh so this is uh? I mean he he,

(01:51:21):
You know the governor does nothing or little to nothing.
It means it means either through fear, confidence maybe both,
take your pick. I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:51:36):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:51:36):
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin has stated that quote, what makes
someone a target device is not their race or ethnicity,
but the fact that there are in the country illegally, Okay.
I mean, we've got some people here from Afghanistan. They're like,
you know, red hair, light colored eyes and very light

(01:51:59):
I mean white. They're here from Afghanistan that they're looking
at the porting. I mean, there's some communities in Afghanistan
are like about as white as any place in Europe
you'd ever want to go to, even more whiter in
some ways. Uh, all right, shifting gears. Shifting gears. The

(01:52:30):
Pentagon knew it was coming. Pentagon did internal investigation. Pdxaf
kind of screwed up. And I'm not talking about blowing
up the the drug cartel boats from Venezuela. Pentagon Inspector

(01:52:52):
General classified report finds that HEX has a signal chat
but did violate regulations put you as personnel at risk.
That's being quartered by Christine Lalia another day in the
League right, Pentagon's Inspector General found that the Department of
War Secretary pdx's signal chat violated regulations and may have
put US personnel in the region at risk. Of course,

(01:53:14):
not the information has been leaked to the legacy media.
According to CNN, the Inspector General report is classified, so
who leaked the info to the legacy media, which is
kind of the secondary part of the story. CNN, AP,
CBS Political reported on the findings today Wednesday or whenever
you're listening to this. This went down Wednesday, may be
listed on a Thursday or Friday. I don't know. Pentagon's

(01:53:35):
watchdog found that the Defense Secretary b the XS put
US personnel on their mission at risk when he used
the Signal messaging app to convey sensitive information about a
military strike against Hooty militants and Yemen. Two people familiar
with the findings said, now, that's according to the Associated Depressed.
Hexth however, has the ability to Dclass five material, and
the important did not find he did so improperly, according

(01:53:58):
to one of the people familiar with the reports findings,
who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the information
seeing in the first report of the initial findings, as
HEAP reported it, or as I like to call in
the Associated Depressed. I know they're the Associated Press, but
I called the Associated depressed. Pentagon's IG report on HEGSETH
was delivered to members of Congress, who then reviewed it
in a skiff. Got reviewed by Pentagon Inspector General's office

(01:54:22):
was delivered to lawmakers who were able to review the
report the classified facility at the Capitol. A partially redacted
version of the report was expected to be released publicly
later this week, but they got apparently the full meal deal.
Pentagon Inspector General expanded his investigation into Defense Secretary Peter
Hegseth's use of the double encrypted app signal that was
back in May. Probably shouldn't be using apps commercial apps

(01:54:48):
to send sensitive info or retrieved sensitive info from somebody
or whatever now. Stephen Stevens took over his acting Inspector
General after President Trump fired the previous ig in seventeen Others,
Vectors General Stevens Stebben Stevens on the Trade pronounced it
was first appointed to his position back at twenty fifteen.
That would have been back in the Obama era. Okay,

(01:55:10):
Pete Hegseth has been under heavy attaxes before his confirmation hearing,
and the leagues keep coming depending on his. Spector General
expanded his probe following the Wallstreet Journals reporting on heg
Seth's wife and brother participating in signal chat groups. Again,
probably not real smart, Probably not very wise. Air Pete
Pete Hegseth was blamed for not noticing Jeffrey Goldberg was

(01:55:32):
added to the signal chat group with other high level
Trump administration officials. Oops. Anyway, this Bassos being imported by
the gaywave pundit as well. That's who this author, Christina
Lalley Works Force gave repundit. Now, I've noticed a trend
line right from the get go with the Trump administration.

(01:55:53):
He had an awful lot former Fox newspeople, Fox News, Okay,
Judge Janine Birou, Pete Exceth of course, the guy who's
head of the f the FAA, all this, and that

(01:56:16):
our transtation secretary Guy uh, A lot of a lot
of Fox News folks. Heck, I was expecting him to
tap Harris Faulkner to be his UH press secretary, although
the one he's got doing pretty good, I think, for
the most part, as good as you can, I think,
under the circumstances. But it's like who's left working at

(01:56:39):
Fox kind of weird, I guess because he thought that
since they were singing his praises, that these would be
good yes people in his administration. I don't know that
you necessarily always want good yes people in your ministration.
I mean I have there's times you probably do and
maybe need that, but I don't know if that's always wise.

(01:57:00):
I certainly don't want to pick people that're gonna be
working against your agenda. I get that to a point.
But don't you want to be challenged once in a while.
Maybe and this way you have a cabinet with cabinet members,
it will kind of go I don't know, Miss President.
There's also another way of looking at this. Don't you
want those kind of people around you? Or do you

(01:57:21):
just want all yes men and women? Can his ego,
Can the Orange man's ego withstand some pushback without getting
bena shape about it and firing somebody or saying nasty
things about them on social media. I don't know. It
seems like he's got a big problem with that. Well,

(01:57:42):
the hallmarks of a good leader is that he can
take the heat and take the criticism, and sometimes it's
just fighting legitimate and good. Our founders knew that, so
why they wanted a very robust First Amendment. It was
John Adams that wanted to push this Sedition Act thing

(01:58:07):
because he was getting some bad press in the media.
You want to kind of shut them down. Well, that's
conviolation of the First Amendment. Dude, you one of the
founding fathers that got this whole thing rolling, and you
want to you know, kind of push back so on
some criticism because you didn't think you're getting a fair, fair,
fair deal in the media with the newspapers. I mean,

(01:58:28):
you know, we've seen this with a lot of administrations
almost since the get go. But I think it's probably
not wise to have this many former talking heads in
an administration. And there's a lot of them. Of course,

(01:58:54):
there's a lot of people that are in administrations have
become talking head's. Look at him ASNBC, right, But to
kind of do the opposite, I don't know. I don't
know if that's a good thing and a wise thing.
And Pete has kind of had some problems. It's like, dude,
this is kind of common sense stuff. Why would you

(01:59:15):
be using this, you know, this this commercial app that's
out there. I mean, don't you have back channels and secure,
super encrypted stuff that the government uses to let somebody know, Yes,
he does have the right to declassify something. Then if
he declassfies something, okay, well they can slap it all over.
I guess you know X and Facebook and whatever, book

(01:59:41):
and any other social media platform. I guess he wants
if you know, if he's given a leeway to declassify
certain things, which he does have that authority. But then again,
do you want to always want to tip your hand
your potential enemies. I don't know. I just doesn't seem
to me to be very good strategy. I don't know.

(02:00:03):
I don't know. That raised his eyebrows. He may be
one of these guys that maybe might not last the
full four years in this administration. I don't know, nothing
against a guy perse or anything. I mean, he seems
like a nice, likable guy, but it seemed like every
time you turn around, here's something else, and it just

(02:00:24):
it just to me seemed a little just not good
common sense. I don't know. Maybe he's eating too much
hair Jel these days. I don't know, he's got the
wavy hair Jael thing. He's got the kind of the
Gavin Dow something going on. I don't know. I don't
know what's up, but I think that's not wise on
the Orange Man's part to have that many former talking
heads and his on his team. There you know who's

(02:00:46):
left at Fox the janitor. I don't know, all right,
So you have nothing wrong with janitor being jannit Fox
by the way of being Jenner. Anyway, It's a good
job if you can get it. Uh So there's that. Finally,
wrap up with this. People getting burned out on digital
digital everything? Are you just feeling kind of fried? Being online?

(02:01:06):
Too long? Spent? Jobs require it? My digital burnout is
now the default state of being online, according to a
new study. According to a new study, it's by an
organization called Study fines Analysis, reviewed by John Andrewer. Now
here's the hang on a second, here's the data. I've

(02:01:27):
got to do something real quick. Sorry to do something
over he real quick with it? Speaking of digital burnout
with a computer, Okay, I think the computer's doing it.
Sing I'm wrestling with three computers in here, and sometimes
it's like, we even want to behave on your show.

(02:01:48):
We like you and what you're saying. I don't know
what it is. I've dealing with artificial intelligence on this
show for years, and it can be unruly. My computers
do what they want to do or else a being hacked.
I don't know the na who knows anyway. Sixty two
percent experience recurring digital burnout with constant notifications, twenty four
percent in social media overload twenty three percent driving the exhaustion. Again,

(02:02:13):
we're talking about digital burnout. It's a thing now. Forty
seven percent say their browser distracts them just as often
as it helps them focus, creating a fundamental tension between
productivity and chaos. Now, some of this is happening with
people working from home, are working in the office with
you know, their computers and their apps and YadA YadA.
Younger generations struggle the most thirty five percent. I would
think that would be the opposite, but younger, because these

(02:02:34):
are the kids. These are folks who grew up with
all this stuff. You know, some of some of us
older geezers, you know that that remember the compact computer
days and the Atari computer days, and the early days
of IBM and Apple, you know, when we were kids.
I mean, you would think it would be the older

(02:02:56):
generations that'd be having the bigger problem. Probably not. The
younger generations ruggle the most. Thirty five percent of millennials
regularly feel burnt out at thirty percent often can't disconnect.
So if they're addicted. I guess compared to thirty one
percent of boomers who never experienced burnout, because I'm not
in that crowd. But ninety percent one personalized browsers, eighty

(02:03:18):
one percent are willing to switch, confirming that users aren't
accepting burnout. They're actively seeking solutions. Yeah, I get outside
and read some fresh air, go fishing. I don't know.
And the centification social media rabbit holes. Ten tabs open
before you even realize that for most Americans, this isn't
just a bad day online, it's every day. The Internet
was supposed to improve our lives, but all that browsing

(02:03:38):
is beginning to take a serious toll. I think I'm
saying this is a guy doing podcasts online, right. That's
one of the key takeaways of SHIFTS twenty twenty six
State of Browsing report, following a survey of one thousand
US adults conducted by MX eight Labs. Researchers confirmed something
may have may have suspected, but few have quantified. Our

(02:03:59):
browsers are making us Nearly two thirds of people experience
recurring digital burnout. Almost half say their browser distracts him
just as often as it helps them. Was driving the
browser burnout well culture. Surprisingly the consistent across users. Constant
notifications top the list twenty four percent, follow closely by
social media overload twenty percent falling into news rabbit holes

(02:04:20):
eighteen percent from any Americans. A browser has become both
a workplace and a distraction machine, with no clear boundaries
sometimes between the two personal use dominates tsktop browsing, with
forty percent of users spending most of their browser time
on personal activities, while in twenty six percent use it
primarily for work. This mixing creates a fundamental tension. Survey
found forty seven percent of future save browsers both distract

(02:04:42):
and help them. Age reveals striking differences of patterns of
digital wellness. Despite wide spread frustration, users ractively seeking solutions
v than simply accepting the burnout. Modern work demands add
another layer of complexity. Half of respondence us three to
five apps daily for work. Third of workers spend most

(02:05:03):
of their time of their workday life online, which typically
runs four to six hours. The friction adds up quickly
twenty percent site apps switching is a major productivity killer. Well,
if they kind of flub up and burn out, I mean,
then mess up. Yeah, it's easy to burn out all
those things. Another twenty percent blame slow performance, sixteen percent
point to too many notifications, and fifteen percent struggle with

(02:05:23):
lost logins. The real cost of digital distraction, Well, distractions
come with real cost beyond frustration. About forty three percent
lose focus in their browser several times per day, while
twenty one percent get distracted multiple times every hour. When
distraction hits only twenty two percent quickly regain concentration. More concerning,
thirty percent lose substantial time of course, time being money

(02:05:45):
in a company. It's not a good thing, with distractions
costing them thirty minutes or more each time. Well, and
in the end that's costing the company some money. The
survey reveals generations caught between capability control. We have more
tools and then hover, but feel less productive. We're constantly connected,
yet struggling to disconnect. Personal and professional lives blur together

(02:06:05):
in a single browser window, creating exhaustion without clear law solutions.
It's easy to simply blame too much technology for this
widespread burnout, but it's the technology that doesn't adapt to
how we actually work and live. Users aren't asking for
a fewer features or simpler tools. They're asking for browsers
that understand context, that can separate work from play, that

(02:06:26):
can shield them from constant interruptions without cutting them off entirely.
The path forward seems clear from user preferences. People want
browsers that work with them rather than against them, that
provide speed and personalization without intrusion. The question is whether
the industry will respond to these needs or continue building
tools that maximize engagement at the expense of well being.

(02:06:52):
I don't think too many people in Silicon value are
worried too much about most of our well beings. I
just never got that impression. And I'm a guy who
used to work for Old Blue back in the day,
Big Blue IBM, helping to put together some of these computers.
Back in the day. It was fun, it was interesting,
but I used to often to wonder, we're going to
come to a time, you know, like you see in
the terminator. We're going to come to a time where

(02:07:13):
these machines really start taking over our lives and the
technology and all the stuff. I mean, the stuff back
then looks like toys that I was playing with compared
to what we have now. But goodness, gracious, you got
to catch breath. I mean, you got to, you gotta
come up for air. But so many companies and their

(02:07:35):
workers have become so dependent on technology to manage and
handle things. Things used to you know, I'm out to
loads of paperwork and just and just teams dedicated to
nothing but that kind of stuff. Now they say, well,
we've simplified it. And in some ways that's true. It
is more simple. Things are more simplified and a finger touched.

(02:07:56):
But then again that also comes with the cause on
the worker. The people have got to wave through all
this technology day in and day out, and it does
get you know, especially if you're working from home, starting
computer screen all day. It flipping between apps on your smartphone,
your work phone and your work computer and this and that.

(02:08:16):
Whether you're the work officer at the house or wherever
you're working at a coffee shop, this got good Internet,
wherever that may be. Yeah, I mean you kind of
got to get away from these things and go out
and do something different. Catch some butterflies, go out and
feed the ducks in the park, Watch the leaves rustle

(02:08:39):
in the trees, feel a breeze, look at the the
sunny skies on direcingly at the sun obviously, you know,
we'll look at the clouds, watch the shapes in the clouds. Hey,
that looks like Snoopy. No, that looks like Jaws. You know,
and have a picnic out in the park. Get away
from this stuff. You got to. It'll drive you bananas.

(02:09:03):
You have to. Sometimes you've got to unplug from the matrix.
You just do it and know there's another real world
out there that's not connected to this cyber world, a
lot of which is make believe for for for mental health.
You gotta do I do it. You have to do it.

(02:09:24):
I took a break last week from doing this show.
Had a lot of stuff going on. It was we
spending time with some relatives loved the Mississille needed to
be doing some things. Another job that I do beside
this needed me doing some things. There was demands I
had had to do a bunch of cooking. It was
gonna go see some family and bring kind of thanksgiving
to the family, bring bringing the Mohammed to the mountains,

(02:09:46):
Bring the mountain to Mohammed, as they say, uh, bring
the Thanksgiving to the to the people that we were
spending it with, great family that we were spending it
with and I did the majority of the cooking and
whipped it all up and doing the train of the car,
and say, oh, so I needed time to do all
that and had a great time, had a great Thanksgiving holiday.
I needed you know. He got to take a break

(02:10:08):
once in a while. I mean, you're human, even Jesus,
even Jesus would take a break from ministry and go
hang out at the amount of olives with his u
with his disciples. Some of your translations, uh, we'll say
some say he retreated there often something something basically just

(02:10:32):
is that he's sort of vacation there he got he
took a break. He had to get even Jesus had
to take a break, you know, take a pause. He
was he was human. He came in human for him
saying listen to humanity. But human. He experienced exhaustion. He
experienced a little burnout too, you know. So he he

(02:10:53):
he would get his twelve piles together and go hang
out there and in the garden and the amount of
olives and hang out there and chill. He had to
get away. He had to get away. Sometimes you got
to get away, You got unplugged. You just got to

(02:11:13):
do it, take a break from all this craziness. Drive
you bananas? What else did Jesus say? Sabbath was created
for man, not man for the Sabbath. The Lord knew
we needed to break. He gave us a day a
break everybody every seven days or so. We got to
just unwind, unplug and do something a little different, relax, chill,

(02:11:36):
do something totally out of the normal range of what
we do. Take a break, take a chill, focus on him,
maybe a little more than we do during not crazy, hectic,
hectic schedules. We're designed for that, all right. We're not
designed to be constantly just hammered with stuff. It's overload.

(02:11:59):
It's I'm not surprised at this, at this study. Try
to run more studies like this. I expect that there
could be and I think it's probably worse even than
the study is showing in the in the data. So
take a break. I'm saying, this is a podcaster who
relies on folks on the internet checking me out. Sometimes

(02:12:23):
you got to take a break, disconnect, unplugged, do something different,
turn off the podcasts totally. I just say that, Yeah,
I did turn off the news, turn off the apps,
turn off the social media. Get off of Facebook, get
off of Twitter, get off of whatever snapchatter, this chatter
blah blah blah. Get unplugged. Go do something completely unrelated.

(02:12:49):
Build a model row road or something, and do something
completely where you don't need all this modern technology. Necessarily,
go fishing. It's a fishing rod and some worms, okay,
or whatever you're gonna use for me, very old technology. Uh,
do something different. Get out and enjoy nature. Get out

(02:13:09):
and enjoy nature. Here's all. With your kids. Go visit
a relative. You haven't seen them forever. Go to historical battlefield,
learn something, Go to a museum, go look at some art.
Go sit and do nothing. Just stare at the beautiful
trees and the squirrels and rabbits and whatever. You gotta
do that. Sometimes it's okay. Even Jesus did it. Even
Jesus did it. Some translations say he resorted there often.

(02:13:33):
You know, we go to resorts, right, chill and hang out.
He got away with the disciples. He went to that
guardian place up there in the mount of balls guarding Cimite.
Whatever he went to he took, you know, he got
away from it all. Chill out. You have to do that.
Sometimes it's cool to do that. Even Jesus did it,

(02:13:54):
And you're not bigger and better and better than Jesus. Right,
all right, I gotta go. You Sure check out the
