- 0:57Speaker 1: It's Kevin McCullough, Monday through Friday on That Kevin Show.
- 1:08Speaker 1: And now, from the Connors & Sullivan Broadcast Studios, the
- 1:12Speaker 1: man who is not what he wants to be, but
- 1:15Speaker 1: is way grateful that he's not who he used to be, here's.
- 1:24Speaker 3: All right, welcome in.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Kevin McCullough, glad to have you with us. It is
- 1:27Speaker 4: a busy Tuesday and we've got some interesting stuff to
- 1:31Speaker 4: talk about today. And I don't, it's like a world
- 1:36Speaker 4: of upside down, inside out, backwards to forwards. I don't
- 1:40Speaker 4: even know how to describe the general tone of like
- 1:43Speaker 4: the top five news stories that are breaking today. But
- 1:48Speaker 4: if you walk through them, there are some interesting observations
- 1:51Speaker 4: about them. And we'll get into that in just a second.
- 1:53Speaker 4: I want to say first, though, thank you to the
- 1:56Speaker 4: incredible people at Medjet.com. As you all know, I travel
- 2:00Speaker 4: a lot, and I even host some travel content on Tuesdays.
- 2:05Speaker 4: And I always get travel insurance, mainly for the medical coverage.
- 2:09Speaker 4: But the Medivac benefits in travel insurance, or if you
- 2:12Speaker 4: have one of those fancy credit cards, they only get
- 2:15Speaker 4: you to the nearest adequate quote-unquote hospital in a medical emergency.
- 2:19Speaker 4: And I don't think that's ideal. So what do I
- 2:21Speaker 4: have for our family? I have the Medjet membership. They
- 2:25Speaker 4: get me moved to a hospital all the way home
- 2:28Speaker 4: just because I want to be moved. And without Medjet,
- 2:32Speaker 4: a move like that, that insurance won't cover, could cost
- 2:35Speaker 4: up to like $ 300, 000. In fact, if you go to
- 2:38Speaker 4: the Medjet.com website, you'll see stories all over, like $ 100, 000, $ 200, 000,
- 2:41Speaker 4: $ 300, 000 flights that they were able to have. I also
- 2:47Speaker 4: have their annual Medjet Horizon membership, which gives me 24-7
- 2:51Speaker 4: security response. And that includes security extraction if necessary, if
- 2:56Speaker 4: things really go sideways on the ground. You know, like
- 2:59Speaker 4: in Paris, if it starts to burn to the ground
- 3:02Speaker 4: while I'm there. Medjet's been at this for over 35 years.
- 3:05Speaker 4: They're the most trusted program I've ever seen. And I,
- 3:08Speaker 4: for one, won't be traveling without it ever again. You
- 3:11Speaker 4: should check them out at Medjet.com. Medjet.com. Love the guys
- 3:16Speaker 4: at Medjet. And the reason that I was thinking about
- 3:19Speaker 4: them today was because of that very thing. I'm looking
- 3:22Speaker 4: at the headlines, and I'm looking at specifically what's going
- 3:27Speaker 4: on in France. And I don't think this is very smart.
- 3:32Speaker 4: The French President Macron took off. His country is burning
- 3:39Speaker 4: to the ground. He has out-of-control riots. that his police
- 3:44Speaker 4: forces are having a tough time mitigating. And because they're
- 3:48Speaker 4: happening all over the country, he can't concentrate forces into
- 3:52Speaker 4: one area. So he has depleted forces trying to fight
- 3:55Speaker 4: these vast number of riots. But he said, nope, I'm
- 4:00Speaker 4: out and I'm headed to the Gulf. And last night
- 4:04Speaker 4: he went to a concert. I guess it's just life
- 4:08Speaker 4: is normal. If you're Emmanuel Macron, I don't know, but
- 4:11Speaker 4: what began weeks earlier as student led demonstrations. Now you're
- 4:17Speaker 4: seeing because of all the videos posted to social media,
- 4:20Speaker 4: you're showing groups of men waving foreign flags, engaging in
- 4:24Speaker 4: massive destruction. The number I'm seeing is that they've already
- 4:29Speaker 4: lost $ 1 billion worth of property damage. And amid all
- 4:35Speaker 4: of this, um, He's headed out of town. It doesn't
- 4:41Speaker 4: make a lot of sense, especially when it was his
- 4:44Speaker 4: policies that brought it all about. He saw what happened.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Here's what's interesting. In Europe with France right now, Macron's going,
- 4:53Speaker 4: how did this happen? It's a bunch of left wing
- 4:56Speaker 4: crazies that are trying to overrun everything. And they're shouting
- 5:00Speaker 4: Palestine and, you know, death to Israel and death to
- 5:03Speaker 4: America and all the other things that these people have
- 5:06Speaker 4: been shouting. And all he had to do was have
- 5:08Speaker 4: his eyes open 10 years ago when the same thing
- 5:11Speaker 4: was happening with Germany, when Angela Merkel was having her
- 5:17Speaker 4: borders wide open and saying, hey, we need cheap labor,
- 5:20Speaker 4: bring them all in. The difference is somewhat like in America,
- 5:27Speaker 4: a lot of our illegal immigration came from predominantly Catholic
- 5:31Speaker 4: cultures and societies. We do have a number of terrorists
- 5:34Speaker 4: that got into the country. But in Europe, all of
- 5:37Speaker 4: their illegal migrants come from the Middle East or from Africa,
- 5:42Speaker 4: where radical Islam is growing and rampant. So I'm not
- 5:48Speaker 4: sure why he was so surprised. Macron got some criticism
- 5:54Speaker 4: from Marine Le Pen, his conservative contender last year for
- 6:00Speaker 4: the last round of elections. But she said that France
- 6:05Speaker 4: is caught in a vice between violence and impotence. And that,
- 6:08Speaker 4: to me, is really what it looks like. We've got
- 6:10Speaker 4: a lot of people on the show today that I'm
- 6:11Speaker 4: going to ask about this, by the way. Specifically, Katie
- 6:15Speaker 4: McFarlane and Simon Hankinson. Katie served under three administrations to
- 6:20Speaker 4: presidents advising on national security issues. And she's got some
- 6:25Speaker 4: definitive ideas about what she thinks about the situation. And
- 6:29Speaker 4: Simon Hankinson comes at this from a kind of different perspective.
- 6:32Speaker 4: He worked in state department adjacent work with people and
- 6:38Speaker 4: immigrants and migrants. And he's seen some of this stuff
- 6:43Speaker 4: up close. And it's going to be an interesting couple
- 6:46Speaker 4: of conversations. Those are both in our two today. So
- 6:49Speaker 4: I hope you'll stick around for the full show. But
- 6:53Speaker 4: it's just you've got to recognize that. If you've given
- 6:58Speaker 4: out all your resources, and you're still guaranteeing that everybody's
- 7:04Speaker 4: going to get their stuff, and you run out of stuff,
- 7:08Speaker 4: how do you fix that? So it's an interesting dilemma,
- 7:13Speaker 4: but we're still watching that. We'll get some qualified national
- 7:16Speaker 4: security perspective on that today. Speaking of radical Islam, Ilhan
- 7:22Speaker 4: Omar's husband had a winery... that had to be closed
- 7:29Speaker 4: because of fraud claims, according to James Comer of the
- 7:34Speaker 4: House Oversight Committee. He's the chairman of that committee. And
- 7:39Speaker 4: he said over the weekend that the winery had been
- 7:41Speaker 4: selling empty barrels to investors under the guise of wine
- 7:45Speaker 4: yet to be aged, but they were empty. Comer told
- 7:51Speaker 4: Trey Gowdy that I can tell you from our initial
- 7:55Speaker 4: investigation of Omar and her financial disclosures form that there
- 7:59Speaker 4: are multiple fronts where you could get a search warrant issued.
- 8:03Speaker 4: First of all, not only was there a huge discrepancy
- 8:06Speaker 4: in the financial disclosure form, there was the winery that
- 8:11Speaker 4: was the big base of her $ 25 million listing on
- 8:14Speaker 4: her financial disclosures. That winery has, according to the press,
- 8:19Speaker 4: been shut down because of fraud. The winery co-owned by
- 8:26Speaker 4: the congresswoman's husband, Tim Manette, shut down in April amid
- 8:36Speaker 4: that scrutiny over their finances. But one of the things
- 8:40Speaker 4: that they're accused of is selling empty barrels of wine
- 8:45Speaker 4: to investors. The more that we learn about Ilan Omar
- 8:52Speaker 4: and what she thinks of this country... and how she
- 8:55Speaker 4: treats the people of this country, the more I am
- 8:59Speaker 4: really not that bothered by the fact that the DOJ
- 9:02Speaker 4: is investigating her. And if it comes down to having
- 9:07Speaker 4: to look at her immigration to see if it was legal,
- 9:14Speaker 4: maybe possibly deporting her. We've never deported a sitting member
- 9:17Speaker 4: of Congress. But I kind of think that she's earning
- 9:22Speaker 4: it if this stuff isn't accounted for in a, in
- 9:26Speaker 4: a sincere way. So anyway, we got all of that. Uh,
- 9:31Speaker 4: there's a couple of other things. Oh, later on, I
- 9:32Speaker 4: got to get to this. The WNBA has made a
- 9:35Speaker 4: declaration about what players will be eligible for their draft.
- 9:39Speaker 4: And by that, I mean the sex of the player.
- 9:42Speaker 4: Get that story for you. Uh, and more as we, uh,
- 9:46Speaker 4: kind of rock through this next couple of hours with
- 9:48Speaker 4: that Kevin show. Stay right here.
- 9:59Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 10:08Speaker 6: He is from New York, that Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
- 10:15Speaker 4: Welcome back. It's That Kevin Show. Thank you for being
- 10:18Speaker 4: with us and thank you for being here each weekday.
- 10:20Speaker 4: Before we have any other discussions about news or policy
- 10:24Speaker 4: or what's going on in the world, you know that
- 10:27Speaker 4: we like to take this portion of the show, set
- 10:30Speaker 4: it aside and say, let's ask the big question. How
- 10:33Speaker 4: do we live? We don't ask the big questions much
- 10:35Speaker 4: anymore as a culture. We don't ask who we are,
- 10:37Speaker 4: why we're here. We don't ask any of those. So
- 10:40Speaker 4: how do we live? And if we love God and
- 10:42Speaker 4: we love his word and we want to know more
- 10:44Speaker 4: about accurately how to follow him and how to represent
- 10:48Speaker 4: him and how to advance his kingdom, then I think
- 10:51Speaker 4: we need to engage in this exercise every day. So
- 10:53Speaker 4: I'm grateful. I'm grateful for shepherds that spend a week
- 10:56Speaker 4: at a time with me. And this week, I'm doubly
- 10:58Speaker 4: blessed because we've got Pastor Rod Caesar III, who is
- 11:02Speaker 4: the senior lead pastor at Foundation Church, and his father,
- 11:06Speaker 4: Bishop Roderick Caesar, who is a longtime friend and someone
- 11:10Speaker 4: who has pretty big birthday celebration coming up here soon.
- 11:14Speaker 4: And we're going to have a lot of fun with
- 11:16Speaker 4: that as well. But gentlemen, I am so grateful for
- 11:18Speaker 4: the legacy that's represented in your lives. And Rod, let's
- 11:22Speaker 4: just jump into it. Yesterday, we talked about from Romans 12,
- 11:27Speaker 4: what it means to be transformed by the renewing of
- 11:29Speaker 4: our mind. And we touched on the idea of surrender. Today,
- 11:33Speaker 4: you want to focus us on faith. Where are we
- 11:36Speaker 4: going there? Yeah, thank you, Kevin.
- 11:38Speaker 3: It's great to be on the show and just have
- 11:41Speaker 3: this important discussion and dialogue. I think as we look
- 11:46Speaker 3: to be transformed, there's different ways we can be transformed,
- 11:49Speaker 3: of course, as Romans says, by the renewal of our mind.
- 11:52Speaker 3: And that transformation comes with different areas. We were transformed
- 11:56Speaker 3: in surrender. Today, we're transformed by faith. Faith meaning not
- 12:01Speaker 3: being bogged down by the doubts of the world, by
- 12:04Speaker 3: the doubts of the things that we see from day
- 12:07Speaker 3: to day, the things that can really creep in. But
- 12:10Speaker 3: living by the word of God, living by faith, living
- 12:12Speaker 3: by the victory that we have in Christ and walking
- 12:16Speaker 3: by faith and not necessarily by what we see, because
- 12:19Speaker 3: we know what we see.
- 12:20Speaker 1: Can be very discouraging.
- 12:21Speaker 3: So walking by faith is extremely important.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Bishop, it has to do your heart some good to
- 12:28Speaker 4: hear your son speak those words because there's never been
- 12:32Speaker 4: a more important message. And he's pastoring in a time
- 12:35Speaker 4: now that is as full of challenge as possibly anything
- 12:39Speaker 4: you faced in the years that you were in the pulpit.
- 12:42Speaker 4: But from the perspective of someone who has walked along
- 12:46Speaker 4: the path a little bit further than Rod and myself,
- 12:49Speaker 4: what are your thoughts about what it means to be
- 12:51Speaker 4: walking by faith?
- 12:52Speaker 7: It's absolutely essential to the relationship with Christ. The scripture
- 12:58Speaker 7: lets us know that if we don't exercise faith, we
- 13:00Speaker 7: can't make him happy. We can't please him. And he
- 13:05Speaker 7: rewards those who diligently seek him. So faith is something
- 13:10Speaker 7: that permeates every aspect of our lives. And faith is
- 13:14Speaker 7: something you learn experientially. You learn intellectually in the textbook.
- 13:20Speaker 7: But you learn experientially in your life when you have
- 13:23Speaker 7: to literally leap out there and know that God's word
- 13:28Speaker 7: is true. I say the faith is stepping out on
- 13:32Speaker 7: nothing and knowing that something will be there by the
- 13:34Speaker 7: time your foot hits the ground.
- 13:37Speaker 4: But Bishop, that's like, I love the beauty of that
- 13:41Speaker 4: word picture, but that's scary. That is really scary.
- 13:45Speaker 8: It is.
- 13:46Speaker 2: It's quite scary, but that's what faith is all about.
- 13:49Speaker 7: Faith is not an easy walk. Faith is a challenging walk.
- 13:54Speaker 7: And it's a walk that involves us putting absolute confidence
- 13:58Speaker 7: and trust in the Lord. And if we don't do it,
- 14:01Speaker 7: then we're not really walking by faith.
- 14:03Speaker 2: If we have to look at the.
- 14:06Speaker 7: Ground ahead of us and tap it to make sure
- 14:09Speaker 7: it can support us as not quicksand, then we're not
- 14:11Speaker 7: walking by faith. Faith is literally stepping out into nothing
- 14:17Speaker 7: And having the confidence that by the time your foot
- 14:20Speaker 7: hits what should be the ground, something will be there
- 14:22Speaker 7: to support you. It's like Abraham when he went to
- 14:26Speaker 7: take Isaac up and offer him as a sacrifice. He
- 14:29Speaker 7: had to believe that God would honor his word. And
- 14:33Speaker 7: that he and Isaac would come back home and celebrate
- 14:36Speaker 7: what they had done. And if he did not believe
- 14:40Speaker 7: God by faith, there would have been.
- 14:43Speaker 2: No attempt at the sacrifice whatsoever.
- 14:46Speaker 7: He would have failed the test and the scripture would
- 14:49Speaker 7: have something else to say about him in the footnotes.
- 14:52Speaker 7: But he believed God and he believed him to the
- 14:55Speaker 7: extent where he said to his son, when his son said, dad,
- 14:59Speaker 7: we see the fire and the wood, where's the sacrifice?
- 15:03Speaker 7: And he said to his son, God will provide himself
- 15:05Speaker 7: a sacrifice. In other words, that's not my job. I
- 15:09Speaker 7: don't have to worry about it. God's going to take
- 15:12Speaker 7: care of that. I just have to be obedient.
- 15:14Speaker 4: Hmm.
- 15:15Speaker 7: And that's really what faith is all about, being obedient
- 15:18Speaker 7: to the word and to the command of the Lord.
- 15:20Speaker 4: So, gentlemen, let me ask you this. And again, Rod
- 15:24Speaker 4: and I don't have the advantage of looking back quite
- 15:26Speaker 4: as far down the journey, Bishop, as you do. But
- 15:31Speaker 4: can you each think of a time in your life
- 15:34Speaker 4: when you know absolutely that you did step out in faith?
- 15:39Speaker 4: And what was the result of that in a moment
- 15:41Speaker 4: of ministry or life or Maybe you're just your own
- 15:44Speaker 4: discipleship with Christ. But give us an example, if you
- 15:49Speaker 4: have one, that comes to mind of some time in
- 15:52Speaker 4: your life where you stepped out in faith and God
- 15:54Speaker 4: met you and you saw it and it was like
- 15:57Speaker 4: reinforcing the faith that you already had.
- 15:59Speaker 7: I can answer that one very quickly. When my son
- 16:03Speaker 7: was born, he was born three months premature. He weighed
- 16:06Speaker 7: one pound, nine ounces at birth. I could hold him
- 16:09Speaker 7: in the palm of my hand. And the doctor looked
- 16:12Speaker 7: at me and the doctor said, he will not survive
- 16:15Speaker 7: 24 hours. Don't get your hopes up. He's not going
- 16:18Speaker 7: to make it.
- 16:19Speaker 2: But the Lord had already.
- 16:20Speaker 7: Spoken into my heart and told me I should not
- 16:22Speaker 7: be concerned about that. He was going to survive. So
- 16:25Speaker 7: I looked the doctor in the face and I said.
- 16:27Speaker 2: You're wrong.
- 16:28Speaker 7: And he said, what makes you think I'm wrong? I said,
- 16:30Speaker 7: because I have a word from the Lord. And the
- 16:32Speaker 7: Lord said, all is well. So my son is going
- 16:35Speaker 7: to survive. He looked at me with a note of
- 16:37Speaker 7: cynicism and he said, well, hold on to your faith.
- 16:39Speaker 7: I said, I'll do just that. And I began to
- 16:42Speaker 7: pray and believe God for one hour past 24. The
- 16:46Speaker 7: miracle is not the lifetime. The miracle begins the next step.
- 16:52Speaker 7: If he made it for 25 hours, I would have
- 16:55Speaker 7: had my miracle, even if the Lord called him home
- 16:57Speaker 7: right after that, because the doctor said 24. And I
- 17:00Speaker 7: wanted to prove the doctor wrong. So I was looking
- 17:02Speaker 7: for the one hour. And we're 30 some odd years
- 17:05Speaker 7: into that 25th hour now.
- 17:08Speaker 4: That's a hard one to outdo. But Rod, do you
- 17:12Speaker 4: have a moment that you've known you were walking by faith?
- 17:15Speaker 4: You saw it come true right in front of your face?
- 17:18Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'll let that testimony stand and speak.
- 17:22Speaker 3: I think my father's recounting kind of my story. I
- 17:26Speaker 3: think that's... that's big and I think for me making
- 17:29Speaker 3: that story my own and walking out in that realizing
- 17:32Speaker 3: because we have the faith to believe forward but also
- 17:35Speaker 3: the faith to look back for me I still have
- 17:37Speaker 3: the tracheotomy scar from that and just looking back and
- 17:40Speaker 3: saying yeah God this is something that I of course
- 17:42Speaker 3: am too young to remember but I do believe that
- 17:46Speaker 3: you've preserved my life I have the scar to prove
- 17:49Speaker 3: it and you know the book that my mother's written
- 17:52Speaker 3: years ago to kind of remind me you know and
- 17:55Speaker 3: I think that it's those, those moments of, Hey, even
- 17:59Speaker 3: looking back, believing by faith that God did this, I
- 18:03Speaker 3: can be able to kind of be propelled and step
- 18:05Speaker 3: forward into what the Lord is calling me to do
- 18:08Speaker 3: and have the faith to move forward because of the
- 18:11Speaker 3: goodness of what he's done in the past.
- 18:13Speaker 4: That's, that's a positive example of what faith is, of
- 18:18Speaker 4: what it looks like. It's kind of granular. This is
- 18:20Speaker 4: faith with clothes on what we just described. Um, Let
- 18:24Speaker 4: me shift gears on that just for a second, because
- 18:26Speaker 4: there's a lot of charlatans on TV that talk about
- 18:31Speaker 4: what faith is in their universe. And it's buying their
- 18:35Speaker 4: prayer hanky or God's going to give them a Porsche
- 18:38Speaker 4: or like there's all kinds of ways that walking by
- 18:42Speaker 4: faith gets distorted. Help us help us understand clearly the
- 18:46Speaker 4: difference between the two. Bishop, let me start with you.
- 18:49Speaker 7: The difference between the two is one is real faith
- 18:51Speaker 7: and the other is imitation based upon the material. The
- 18:54Speaker 7: faith where the prayer hankies and all that comes in
- 18:57Speaker 7: is based upon you giving to get. And real faith
- 19:01Speaker 7: is giving because God said so. And what you get
- 19:04Speaker 7: in return is what God has for you. It's not
- 19:07Speaker 7: dollar for dollar or 10 for one. You get good health,
- 19:11Speaker 7: good strength, soundness of mind, peace, joy, fulfillment. You get
- 19:16Speaker 7: so much more. And if you reduce God to being
- 19:19Speaker 7: a genie that just delivers you what you.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Want, then he's not God.
- 19:23Speaker 7: He's a fictitious God. God is sovereign and he gives
- 19:30Speaker 7: us the best gifts.
- 19:31Speaker 2: I say to the congregation, God.
- 19:33Speaker 7: Gives the best gifts to those who lead the choice
- 19:36Speaker 7: to him. So when you give, when you exercise faith
- 19:40Speaker 7: in giving, what you do is you just do what
- 19:43Speaker 7: God commands you to do and then sit back and
- 19:44Speaker 7: wait for God to do what he.
- 19:46Speaker 4: Wants to do.
- 19:48Speaker 7: And, uh.
- 19:50Speaker 2: will supply all of our.
- 19:51Speaker 7: Need, not needs.
- 19:53Speaker 2: Because our needs many times are our wants.
- 19:57Speaker 9: Right.
- 19:58Speaker 7: And he will provide all of our need, which is food, raiment,
- 20:01Speaker 7: and shelter. Everything else is a benefit.
- 20:03Speaker 4: And I think that on that note, Bishop, and we're
- 20:06Speaker 4: out of time for today, but tomorrow maybe we can
- 20:08Speaker 4: follow up on this. I think there are moments of,
- 20:11Speaker 4: in our faith, in trying to be in alignment with
- 20:14Speaker 4: God's will, that his decision is different than what we
- 20:17Speaker 4: would choose left to our own devices.
- 20:20Speaker 8: Absolutely.
- 20:21Speaker 4: And I think we need to understand some more on that.
- 20:23Speaker 4: So we'll pick up on that. But Pastor Rod Caesar
- 20:27Speaker 4: III and Bishop Roderick R. Caesar Foundation Church in New York,
- 20:31Speaker 4: thank you for doing this week together with us. I'm
- 20:34Speaker 4: so thrilled to have my good friends on with me,
- 20:36Speaker 4: and it's just a joy to have you.
- 20:38Speaker 2: Amen.
- 20:38Speaker 4: Thank you so much. Kevin McCullough, when we come back
- 20:41Speaker 4: from New York, we've got a lot of news to
- 20:43Speaker 4: get to on this busy Tuesday. Don't go anywhere.
- 20:47Speaker 6: Stick around for more of That Kevin, next. Here he
- 21:09Speaker 6: is from New York.
- 21:11Speaker 5: That Kevin.
- 21:12Speaker 9: Kevin McCullough.
- 21:13Speaker 6: Welcome back.
- 21:15Speaker 4: Kevin McCullough. Glad to have you with us.
- 21:17Speaker 2: It's That Kevin Show.
- 21:18Speaker 4: Thatkevinshow.com. If you want the column, if you want the podcast,
- 21:22Speaker 4: if you want the television show, we've got it all.
- 21:25Speaker 4: It's all there. It's all free. We never put it
- 21:28Speaker 4: behind a paywall. We just want you to have access
- 21:30Speaker 4: to it. I want to say thank you to the
- 21:32Speaker 4: trio of Pauls today. Paul from Malene, Alabama says, And
- 21:37Speaker 4: Paul in Maywood, New Jersey. And Paul in Breezy Point,
- 21:41Speaker 4: New York. All within the last couple of days.
- 21:44Speaker 9: That's hilarious.
- 21:46Speaker 4: Liberated slaves.
- 21:47Speaker 9: Awesome and funny at the same time. Through Christian Solidarity.
- 21:50Speaker 9: Very interesting.
- 21:52Speaker 4: And then there's this other guy named David. He had
- 21:54Speaker 4: to break the pattern. He's from Bakersfield, California. And he
- 21:58Speaker 4: also liberated a slave.
- 21:59Speaker 9: Maybe his middle name is Paul.
- 22:02Speaker 4: Yeah, it probably is. they all gave gifts friends in
- 22:06Speaker 4: excess of $ 250. And the, uh, the, the significance of
- 22:09Speaker 4: that is real simple. Um, every one of those men
- 22:12Speaker 4: that I just mentioned will have liberated a human being,
- 22:15Speaker 4: a life, a life that will be forever changed because
- 22:18Speaker 4: they are now free. Um, and Todd Chapman is back
- 22:21Speaker 4: with us from Christian Solidarity International. Todd, I never get
- 22:24Speaker 4: over the fact that there are people constantly tuning in
- 22:27Speaker 4: for the first time and they're constantly saying, wait, what,
- 22:30Speaker 4: what's this about slavery? What's this about liberation? Um, We
- 22:33Speaker 4: don't we solve that problem 100 years ago more. How
- 22:38Speaker 4: come you're talking about it now? What do you say
- 22:40Speaker 4: to them?
- 22:40Speaker 9: Yeah, well, I think, first of all, we live in
- 22:42Speaker 9: a bit of a bubble here in the United States.
- 22:45Speaker 9: And so, you know, if it's if it's not happening
- 22:47Speaker 9: for the most part within our borders or even our communities,
- 22:51Speaker 9: a lot of times we're just not aware of stuff.
- 22:53Speaker 9: You know, that's that's just the media world that we
- 22:55Speaker 9: live in these days. And, you know, what we're talking
- 22:58Speaker 9: about here, you know, we're talking about something that actually
- 23:02Speaker 9: has been going on for many, many years. The taking
- 23:06Speaker 9: of these slaves happened, as my kids would say, in
- 23:09Speaker 9: the last century. So it happened a while back. But
- 23:12Speaker 9: it was at a level that most people, when, yeah,
- 23:14Speaker 9: people are so surprised when I talk to them about this.
- 23:17Speaker 9: They're like, how have I never heard about this? Most
- 23:20Speaker 9: people haven't. I mean, you would have to be pretty
- 23:22Speaker 9: steeped in global history. history and international relations and Christian
- 23:25Speaker 9: persecution to really be aware of this. But our lack
- 23:29Speaker 9: of awareness doesn't make it any less significant, any less painful,
- 23:32Speaker 9: any less profound, any less heinous and evil. And so
- 23:36Speaker 9: that's why we're so thrilled to be able to have
- 23:38Speaker 9: the opportunity to come on Kevin's show. And we've been
- 23:41Speaker 9: doing it for years and bring it in front of you,
- 23:44Speaker 9: make you aware of it. Because what we found is
- 23:46Speaker 9: once people know about this and they understand the not
- 23:50Speaker 9: just on the macro level, but you understand on an
- 23:53Speaker 9: individual level how just incredibly viciously these human beings have
- 24:00Speaker 9: been treated simply because they just happen to believe differently
- 24:04Speaker 9: and were in a part of the world, in a
- 24:07Speaker 9: country at the time that was largely Christian, and these
- 24:10Speaker 9: Muslim marauders were basically allowed to throw down on them
- 24:14Speaker 9: and do what they wanted. Well, now all of that
- 24:16Speaker 9: has stopped, but the remnants were 150 plus thousand, probably
- 24:20Speaker 9: 200,000 is the ballpark estimate. When this, uh, you know,
- 24:23Speaker 9: after this slavery broke out have remained in captivity most
- 24:26Speaker 9: of that time. And so CSI has been setting them
- 24:30Speaker 9: free one slave at a time. And, uh, So, yeah,
- 24:32Speaker 9: I think I think that's the big thing, Kevin. I
- 24:34Speaker 9: just think, you know, it's it's interesting to when people
- 24:38Speaker 9: become aware of the level of slavery and bondage and
- 24:42Speaker 9: abuse in the world. I do find that most Christians
- 24:45Speaker 9: suddenly they're activated and they're like, OK, this is not right.
- 24:48Speaker 9: I need to be doing something about it. So if
- 24:50Speaker 9: that's your you know, if that's your disposition, you're in
- 24:53Speaker 9: the right place to actually do something about that and
- 24:56Speaker 9: free a Sudanese slave, one like a dude. That's just
- 25:00Speaker 9: one story, Kevin, out of hundreds of thousands of stories
- 25:03Speaker 9: of people. But they're all very similar. Taken as a child,
- 25:08Speaker 9: primarily women, but some boys at the time were taken.
- 25:12Speaker 9: And now their whole life growing up in slavery, being
- 25:14Speaker 9: abused until their day of deliverance comes. Got to feel
- 25:20Speaker 9: a little bit like the Israelites being led out of Egypt, right?
- 25:23Speaker 9: After so, so much time in captivity. Except they go
- 25:27Speaker 9: willingly and not grumblingly and they come into freedom and
- 25:31Speaker 9: they're set on a path to having this new sustainable life. $ 250, friend,
- 25:36Speaker 9: you do that for $ 250. It's incredible.
- 25:40Speaker 4: And I'm thinking since so many of these women, when
- 25:44Speaker 4: they were taken, were in essence Christians raised by Christians,
- 25:51Speaker 4: knew of the Christian faith. gospel and knew what it
- 25:55Speaker 4: was to worship Jesus. But as soon as they were
- 25:57Speaker 4: taken into captivity, their Muslim slave masters forbade that. And
- 26:03Speaker 4: so a lot of them were forced to take Muslim
- 26:06Speaker 4: names and to do things like circumcise themselves, trying to
- 26:11Speaker 4: be as polite as I can in terms of describing it,
- 26:15Speaker 4: but without any medical help or sanitary conditions to do
- 26:18Speaker 4: it in. And that's in addition to the sexual assault
- 26:23Speaker 4: and the rape and the beatings and the vulgar verbal
- 26:28Speaker 4: abuse that was taking place. And at the end of
- 26:30Speaker 4: the day, when you give them their freedom from captivity,
- 26:36Speaker 4: you're releasing them from all of that. You're giving them
- 26:39Speaker 4: a life where none of that occurs anymore. And not
- 26:44Speaker 4: only does it not occur, they can now proactively go
- 26:48Speaker 4: back to worshiping the Jesus that they weren't even allowed
- 26:50Speaker 4: to pray to out loud. If they were caught praying
- 26:53Speaker 4: to Jesus out loud while in captivity, it could mean
- 26:56Speaker 4: their death. But many of them did pray just silently
- 27:01Speaker 4: and quietly to themselves night after night. God, please see me.
- 27:06Speaker 4: Please hear my cry. Hear my prayer. Help us be liberated.
- 27:11Speaker 4: And Now that they have the chance to do that,
- 27:15Speaker 4: the ones that are coming out into freedom are telling us,
- 27:18Speaker 4: don't give up. Don't give up until you get all
- 27:21Speaker 4: of them. We've got to get all of the slaves liberated.
- 27:23Speaker 5: 888-342-1010.
- 27:24Speaker 4: $ 250 does that for one person. $ 250 permanently liberates a slave.
- 27:26Speaker 8: 888-342-1010. 888-342-1010.
- 27:26Speaker 4: We have 232 slaves' names on a list this year.
- 27:29Speaker 4: We're trying to get every one of them liberated. Will
- 27:42Speaker 4: you help us?
- 27:42Speaker 5: 888-342-1010, 888-342-1010.
- 28:08Speaker 6: Here he is from New York.
- 28:10Speaker 5: That Kevin.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Kevin McCullough.
- 28:11Speaker 6: Welcome back.
- 28:11Speaker 5: Kevin McCullough.
- 28:12Speaker 6: Glad to have you with us.
- 28:13Speaker 8: 888-342-1010. 888-342-1010.
- 28:13Speaker 6: Friends, I don't want there to be much time that.
- 28:14Speaker 4: Goes by for us to get all 232 slaves liberated. Kevin,
- 28:16Speaker 4: what are you talking about?
- 28:16Speaker 8: 232 slaves.
- 28:16Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the number of names that we have at
- 28:18Speaker 4: Christian Solidarity International this year of slaves that have been found, discovered.
- 28:42Speaker 4: We know for a fact that they are slaves. We
- 28:44Speaker 4: know for a fact that their slave master has entered
- 28:48Speaker 4: into at least a discussion with our Arab retrievers that
- 28:53Speaker 4: are trying to help these slaves go free. And those
- 28:56Speaker 4: are the ones that we have the potential to liberate
- 28:59Speaker 4: this year, right now, before the end of the year.
- 29:02Speaker 4: And if you can imagine it, Maybe give these people,
- 29:06Speaker 4: these women who have been in captivity for dozens of
- 29:09Speaker 4: years each, maybe give them a Christmas where they not
- 29:14Speaker 4: only get to go free, but maybe have the best
- 29:17Speaker 4: Christmas presents ever in something called a bag of hope.
- 29:21Speaker 4: We'll tell you all about it. Todd Chapman is back
- 29:23Speaker 4: with me from Christian Solidarity International. And Todd, the tendency
- 29:28Speaker 4: is to think with slavery aside. Well, we emphasize the
- 29:32Speaker 4: harsh things, right? Because that's why slavery is so immoral.
- 29:36Speaker 4: Like if slavery were simply just living in some way.
- 29:40Speaker 4: house and being fed bonbons and having all the advantages
- 29:44Speaker 4: of just being there, but there was no negative treatment,
- 29:48Speaker 4: you might still wish you had autonomy, but you wouldn't
- 29:51Speaker 4: be afraid for your life. So we focus on all
- 29:55Speaker 4: the abuse, the rape, the sexual assault, the verbal, the physical,
- 29:58Speaker 4: the beatings, everything that they go through. But I think
- 30:01Speaker 4: that sells us short on just what a good thing
- 30:05Speaker 4: your gift does when a slave is liberated. Because as
- 30:08Speaker 4: dark as that is, as horrific and as terrible and
- 30:12Speaker 4: as depressing and as probably hopeless as that seems, when
- 30:16Speaker 4: you set a slave free with CSI, their life becomes
- 30:20Speaker 4: the opposite. So if they've been in darkness, they're now
- 30:23Speaker 4: in light, the light of hope, the light of joy,
- 30:25Speaker 4: the light of gratitude, the light of peace, the light
- 30:28Speaker 4: of being able to live their life and make their
- 30:31Speaker 4: own decisions and not be beholding to a slave master
- 30:34Speaker 4: who has the ability to kind of thumbs up or
- 30:36Speaker 4: thumbs down whether or not they get to live or
- 30:38Speaker 4: eat that day. And that's what I want people to understand.
- 30:41Speaker 4: Your gift is not just making a statement about something
- 30:46Speaker 4: that's dark and terrible, which we want to. We want
- 30:48Speaker 4: to condemn slavery with every ounce within our being. But
- 30:51Speaker 4: we want you to know more so about the joy,
- 30:54Speaker 4: the peace, the gratitude that comes from that because your
- 30:57Speaker 4: gift is what makes that possible. It's the light switch
- 31:00Speaker 4: between living in the dark of slavery and living in
- 31:03Speaker 4: the light of being free and worshiping Jesus openly as
- 31:06Speaker 4: they do. And Todd CSI does it better than anyone else.
- 31:09Speaker 4: But that's what I want people to take away. I
- 31:11Speaker 4: want them to get involved, not because we're just doing
- 31:14Speaker 4: something to stop evil, but because of all the good
- 31:16Speaker 4: that it produces. Yeah.
- 31:18Speaker 9: Yeah, for sure. And also, but I think it's, you know,
- 31:21Speaker 9: a big part of the motivation for us as followers
- 31:23Speaker 9: of Christ is that, you know, the reason why I'm
- 31:26Speaker 9: very clear in the Bible, it is for freedom that
- 31:28Speaker 9: Christ himself came.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Right.
- 31:29Speaker 9: I mean, that slavery or bondage of any type basically flies.
- 31:36Speaker 9: It goes against the very essence of God's creation. That's
- 31:39Speaker 9: why this is such a powerful concept.
- 31:41Speaker 8: Right.
- 31:41Speaker 9: Because God created us all. We are created in his image.
- 31:45Speaker 9: But even though God created us, he doesn't demand that
- 31:48Speaker 9: we serve him. He actually gives us free will. He
- 31:51Speaker 9: gives us agency. And that's how much God loves us.
- 31:55Speaker 9: And so when any human being is enslaved and that
- 31:58Speaker 9: agency is removed from them and their dignity is diminished,
- 32:02Speaker 9: that's abhorrence to our father. And God's very clear. He says, no,
- 32:06Speaker 9: this is I am against this. And so he calls us,
- 32:10Speaker 9: his followers, his children to be against it as well.
- 32:13Speaker 9: But I think, you know, that needs to extend to
- 32:15Speaker 9: more than just being against it in our minds and
- 32:18Speaker 9: in our words. We need to be against it in
- 32:19Speaker 9: our actions.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Right.
- 32:21Speaker 9: The Bible says faith without works is dead. You can
- 32:24Speaker 9: believe something all day long. But what are you going
- 32:26Speaker 9: to do with that belief? Are you actually putting it
- 32:28Speaker 9: into an action that has a significant impact? And in
- 32:32Speaker 9: this case, it's significant impact for one human being. But
- 32:35Speaker 9: here's the thing, Kev, you know, if enough of us
- 32:37Speaker 9: free one human being, then what you see CSI has
- 32:40Speaker 9: been able to do through the power of God and
- 32:42Speaker 9: God's people over the last 30 years, one person at
- 32:45Speaker 9: a time or maybe three or five people at a time,
- 32:49Speaker 9: that's rolled up to 160,000 ish. Sudanese slaves being freed.
- 32:56Speaker 9: That is phenomenal.
- 32:58Speaker 8: Right.
- 32:58Speaker 9: I mean, just to think. And again, most people have
- 33:00Speaker 9: never heard about this. They didn't know that there were
- 33:02Speaker 9: a couple thousand, you know, women and children taken into
- 33:06Speaker 9: slavery back in the last century. They didn't know they've
- 33:09Speaker 9: lived for 30 years just being beaten and abused and
- 33:12Speaker 9: without the ability to walk away whenever they want and
- 33:15Speaker 9: go back home like any human being should be able
- 33:17Speaker 9: to do. It took God's people, number one, becoming aware
- 33:20Speaker 9: and number two, becoming motivated to set them free. And
- 33:24Speaker 9: so that's why I get pumped up about this opportunity
- 33:26Speaker 9: to bring this to you every year, because every year
- 33:29Speaker 9: we find even more people that are like, I had
- 33:31Speaker 9: no idea this is so wrong and I want to
- 33:33Speaker 9: do something about it. And so, you know, people jump
- 33:36Speaker 9: in and every year through that Kevin show and a
- 33:39Speaker 9: couple other platforms that we've got, We're able to see,
- 33:43Speaker 9: you know, two, three thousand slaves rescued every year. And
- 33:46Speaker 9: we're hoping and praying that happens again this year.
- 33:48Speaker 4: I've honestly never told anyone about the cause of CSI
- 33:52Speaker 4: and the Sudanese slaves that they have not responded in
- 33:55Speaker 4: a way that says, I want to do everything that I.
- 33:57Speaker 9: Can to stop that.
- 33:59Speaker 4: Which I think is great because you don't have to.
- 34:03Speaker 4: You don't have to understand anything worse than that you
- 34:05Speaker 4: get to mitigate suffering and bring joy into their life
- 34:08Speaker 4: in a way that nothing else will do. I also
- 34:10Speaker 4: want to talk to those of you that have been
- 34:13Speaker 4: extraordinarily blessed by God because that blessing comes with purpose.
- 34:18Speaker 4: And if you are looking for a means to which
- 34:21Speaker 4: you can give significant purpose to the wealth or to
- 34:26Speaker 4: the abundance that God has blessed you with, Consider a
- 34:30Speaker 4: gift of $ 2, 500 and help 10 find liberation. Consider a
- 34:35Speaker 4: gift of $ 25, 000 and help 100 slaves be free. We
- 34:40Speaker 4: have room for you to be able to do that.
- 34:42Speaker 4: And so we would love for you to examine your
- 34:45Speaker 4: heart and say, what can be done? And I know
- 34:48Speaker 4: that my audience thinks this way. Just last month, we
- 34:52Speaker 4: had someone say, how far would a $ 100, 000 gift go
- 34:55Speaker 4: to give Bibles to people that want them? That's a
- 34:58Speaker 4: generous heart. That's a God That's a God-centered heart. And
- 35:02Speaker 4: he was on his way to the airport last minute going,
- 35:04Speaker 4: I got to get out of town. Where do I call?
- 35:05Speaker 4: Where do I go? Gave the gift. We're grateful for it. Friends,
- 35:10Speaker 4: I think that there are people being called right now
- 35:14Speaker 4: to do something similar in a fashion that would liberate
- 35:17Speaker 4: human lives and thus give two seasons of joy to
- 35:21Speaker 4: these women in the moment that they're living in now
- 35:25Speaker 4: and for all of eternity to be able to return
- 35:28Speaker 4: to the roots of their faith worship with fellow believers
- 35:31Speaker 4: and rejoice in what god has done for them 888-342-1010

- 36:37Speaker 4: People suggesting early alternatives to the typical COVID protocols were
- 36:42Speaker 4: deplatformed and silenced. The late Dr. Zev Zelenko was at
- 36:46Speaker 4: the center of one of those controversies with the Z-Stack
- 36:48Speaker 4: and the Zelenko Protocol. He faced immense criticism for sharing
- 36:52Speaker 4: his approach, but President Trump later cited him during a
- 36:55Speaker 4: press briefing saying, I watched the video of all that myself.
- 36:58Speaker 2: Dr.
- 36:58Speaker 4: Zelenko was on my show. It's still the most listened
- 37:01Speaker 4: podcast we've ever had. Millions of people have listened to it.
- 37:06Speaker 2: Dr.
- 37:06Speaker 4: Zelenko carefully selected ingredients and doses based on his research,

- 37:55Speaker 4: to ZStack.com, ZStackLife.com, slash Kevin, and got my first order. ZStackLife.com,
- 38:04Speaker 4: slash Kevin, ZStackLife.com, slash Kevin. Now, the funny thing I
- 38:09Speaker 4: wanted to tell you about. You know, we've been talking about...
- 38:13Speaker 4: the different forms that women come in these days, right?
- 38:16Speaker 4: We've all talked about the way that women are defined
- 38:21Speaker 4: and whether or not a Supreme Court justice knows how
- 38:23Speaker 4: to define a woman or not. Well, WNBA commissioner, W
- 38:27Speaker 4: being the word woman in the WNBA acrostic, WNBA commissioner
- 38:32Speaker 4: Kathy Engelbert told Republican lawmakers that former NBA players Ennis
- 38:38Speaker 4: Cantor Freedom and Royce Weiss are ineligible to play in
- 38:41Speaker 4: the league because they are both men. She was responding
- 38:44Speaker 4: to a congressional inquiry without supplying the definition of women
- 38:47Speaker 4: that lawmakers had requested. With respect to your questions regarding eligibility,
- 38:53Speaker 4: only women are eligible to play in the NBA, and
- 38:56Speaker 4: the individuals you cite in your letter are both men,
- 38:58Speaker 4: Engelbert wrote on October 16th. The letter was provided to
- 39:04Speaker 4: Fox News by the America First Policy Institute, which is
- 39:07Speaker 4: representing NS Freedom. The letter answered a September 17th inquiry
- 39:12Speaker 4: from Congressman Marlon Stutzman and four other House Republicans about eligibility,
- 39:16Speaker 4: player safety and confrontations with fans. Freedom and White had
- 39:20Speaker 4: announced plans to enter the 2027 WNBA draft while saying
- 39:24Speaker 4: they identify as women. Why is she allowed to just?
- 39:30Speaker 4: discount them? She can discriminate based on not accepting what
- 39:37Speaker 4: Ennis says? Well, the answer.
- 39:53Speaker 4: To the question is that she's obviously a normal woman
- 39:56Speaker 4: because no man should be playing in the WNBA. That's
- 40:01Speaker 4: the point. So even if you have a man who
- 40:05Speaker 4: puts on women's underwear and tightens things up and grows
- 40:09Speaker 4: his hair long and gives himself implants and he goes
- 40:12Speaker 4: out and he pretends to be a woman, they shouldn't
- 40:14Speaker 4: get to play either. So having said all of that,
- 40:18Speaker 4: the WNBA better change its public facing statement about all
- 40:22Speaker 4: of that stuff Before next season. At least that's my opinion.

- 42:18Speaker 4: to our newest sponsor, Z-Stack. You've heard me talk about
- 42:22Speaker 4: it a little bit over the last couple of days.
- 42:24Speaker 4: But how many times have you turned on the news
- 42:27Speaker 4: and felt powerless while watching the latest health scare that
- 42:31Speaker 4: the news headlines are pushing? The late Dr. Zev Zelenko
- 42:34Speaker 4: knew that feeling well, which is why he created ZStack.
- 42:38Speaker 4: Back in 2020, he was a frontline physician boldly sharing
- 42:42Speaker 4: early alternatives to the COVID crisis, which led President Trump
- 42:47Speaker 4: to cite him during a press briefing. Dr. Zelenko didn't guess.
- 42:51Speaker 4: He carefully selected Z-Stacks ingredients and doses based on his research.
- 42:56Speaker 4: He got attacked. He got deplatformed for years, only to
- 42:59Speaker 4: be proven 100% right. Everything that he ever talked about
- 43:03Speaker 4: turned out to be true. And he talked about it
- 43:06Speaker 4: on my show. My show was one of the first
- 43:09Speaker 4: ones he did. That podcast to this day, still one
- 43:14Speaker 4: of the most listened to that we've ever put out.

- 44:10Speaker 4: grateful to have them as part of the show. All right,
- 44:13Speaker 4: I've got an interesting thing to kick off the hour
- 44:15Speaker 4: with here. Because a couple of different forces have converged
- 44:21Speaker 4: in my mind about this. First, you see all of
- 44:25Speaker 4: the dishonesty in the headlines right now. You've got France
- 44:31Speaker 4: defaulting on promises to citizens, so the whole place is
- 44:34Speaker 4: burning down. You've got... people just flat out lying about
- 44:40Speaker 4: their political opponents. You've got Ilan Omar and her husband
- 44:43Speaker 4: selling empty barrels of wine to investors. And so all
- 44:50Speaker 4: of that dishonesty is kind of hanging out in one
- 44:52Speaker 4: side of my brain. And then my pastor on Sunday
- 44:56Speaker 4: talked about, we're studying through the book of Mark, and
- 44:59Speaker 4: he talked about the sower and the seed and how
- 45:01Speaker 4: the seed falls on different soil. And sometimes the soil
- 45:04Speaker 4: is not, responsive to the seed that it falls on.
- 45:08Speaker 4: And sometimes it falls into rocky places and sometimes it
- 45:11Speaker 4: falls into thorny places and it gets choked out for
- 45:14Speaker 4: certain reasons. And then the sower eventually sows seed onto
- 45:19Speaker 4: fertile ground and grows a crop and everything's good. But
- 45:23Speaker 4: in the thorny place, he talked about how sometimes good
- 45:26Speaker 4: things in our life can shout out the gospel, can
- 45:32Speaker 4: choke out the gospel. And he was saying that sometimes
- 45:35Speaker 4: we even make good things idols. And I've never really
- 45:40Speaker 4: heard this before, except for my pastor. But he said
- 45:42Speaker 4: it a couple of times that sometimes we even make
- 45:45Speaker 4: idols of our own family. When sometimes the most loving
- 45:48Speaker 4: thing we can do is not to make an idol
- 45:50Speaker 4: of them or to gloss over things, but rather to
- 45:53Speaker 4: tell them the truth. Lovingly, of course, because you want
- 45:58Speaker 4: their welfare. But I have to give... some pretty big
- 46:02Speaker 4: props today with those two things in the back of
- 46:05Speaker 4: my mind to Amy Acton's mother. Amy Acton is the
- 46:10Speaker 4: gubernatorial candidate for Ohio Democrat. And her mother urged voters
- 46:17Speaker 4: not to cast their ballot for her daughter saying that
- 46:21Speaker 4: she in fact does not tell the truth. She says,
- 46:24Speaker 4: I love my daughter, but when I saw her lying
- 46:28Speaker 4: about her opponent, It's not easy for me to say this,
- 46:32Speaker 4: but Amy has a serious problem. She can't tell the truth.
- 46:36Speaker 4: She lies about her past. She says she grew up
- 46:39Speaker 4: living in a tent. None of that is true. And
- 46:43Speaker 4: she's lied her entire life, says her mom, Donna, Donna Arthur.
- 46:49Speaker 4: She said, my daughter really needs help. And if she
- 46:53Speaker 4: can't help you, and she can't help you if she
- 46:55Speaker 4: needs help herself. People can change. But first they have
- 46:58Speaker 4: to tell the truth. And my daughter still isn't doing that.
- 47:01Speaker 4: Don't vote for people who lie. Don't let her become
- 47:05Speaker 4: your governor. If you think she'll make your life better,
- 47:08Speaker 4: you're fooling yourself. It's only going to get worse. This
- 47:11Speaker 4: is the words from the mom about her daughter. And
- 47:15Speaker 4: she does it with humility. She says, this is hard
- 47:17Speaker 4: for me to say. The candidate, Acton, is a former
- 47:22Speaker 4: Ohio Department of Health director. And she issued a statement
- 47:26Speaker 4: from her brother. The release containing the statement described the
- 47:30Speaker 4: woman as the sibling's estranged and abusive mother. And the
- 47:35Speaker 4: brother of the candidate said, it's not surprising that Vivek
- 47:39Speaker 4: Ramaswamy has stooped to such a despicable low as to
- 47:42Speaker 4: attempt to turn the sexual abuse Amy endured at 12
- 47:45Speaker 4: years old from our mother's husband into a political talking point.
- 47:49Speaker 4: After he was arrested, Amy and I were removed from custody,
- 47:52Speaker 4: but our birth mother stayed married to him until he died.
- 47:56Speaker 4: This desperate, disgusting attack reveals exactly who Vivek is at
- 47:59Speaker 4: his core, a pathetic excuse for a man who is
- 48:01Speaker 4: willing to hurt everyone as long as it gets him
- 48:03Speaker 4: what he wants. Friends, nobody made Amy Acton's mom say
- 48:08Speaker 4: any of that. And again, she says it's not easy
- 48:11Speaker 4: for her to say. She doesn't take that as a
- 48:14Speaker 4: sign of pride. She is saying, as a mom, I've
- 48:20Speaker 4: been disappointed with my daughter who has a hard time
- 48:24Speaker 4: telling the truth and look at what her brother's statement
- 48:27Speaker 4: doesn't say her, her brother's statement does not say that
- 48:32Speaker 4: what hurt, that what his mom said was untrue. He
- 48:36Speaker 4: blames the other candidate. And he says that the other
- 48:41Speaker 4: candidates being pathetic, that is his, his vitriol is entirely
- 48:45Speaker 4: aimed at the candidate and not at his mom. And
- 48:48Speaker 4: the Ramaswamy campaign didn't even respond to, um, the brother,
- 48:54Speaker 4: or the media's request for a comment. This is an
- 49:00Speaker 4: interesting thing, and I think it's got to be hard, friends.
- 49:04Speaker 4: I was thinking when my pastor was talking about how
- 49:07Speaker 4: good things can sometimes become an idol, and I love
- 49:10Speaker 4: my family. I really have just been so blessed by
- 49:16Speaker 4: the family that I have, and I would do anything
- 49:19Speaker 4: for them. But the thing that my pastor specifically pointed out,
- 49:22Speaker 4: he said, many times when a family's all on the
- 49:27Speaker 4: same page faith-wise, everything's fine. But when someone starts to
- 49:31Speaker 4: walk away, sometimes the kid tries to drag the parents
- 49:34Speaker 4: into the deceptions, into the culture, into the stuff that
- 49:39Speaker 4: they're kind of turning their back on it in their faith,
- 49:41Speaker 4: et cetera. And he said, if you really love the person,
- 49:46Speaker 4: you don't, you don't go along with that. I've had
- 49:49Speaker 4: to make some hard decisions about family relationships that don't
- 49:54Speaker 4: go in the direction that God wants them to go in.
- 49:58Speaker 4: And I wouldn't say that I've gotten them all perfect
- 50:00Speaker 4: or even all right, necessarily, but I know where the
- 50:04Speaker 4: line is to draw. And I can't, I can't go and,
- 50:09Speaker 4: against what God wants. And I can't let grandparents or
- 50:13Speaker 4: aunts or uncles or anybody else lead my kids there either.
- 50:18Speaker 4: It may not be popular, but I'm going to say
- 50:20Speaker 4: good for Amy Acton's mother, Donna Arthur, because it's courageous
- 50:24Speaker 4: what she did. And I don't think she deserves to
- 50:27Speaker 4: be pilloried for it, especially by her son.
- 50:31Speaker 2: All right.
- 50:32Speaker 4: Kevin McCullough, huge hour. KT McFarlane joins me next.
- 50:54Speaker 6: Here he is from New York, that Kevin, Kevin McCullough.
- 51:01Speaker 4: All right, welcome back. It's Tuesday. You know I like
- 51:05Speaker 4: to have really smart people on the show, and they
- 51:07Speaker 4: don't get any smarter than KT McFarland, who's with us again. KT,
- 51:11Speaker 4: Fox News Digital is now identifying 101 organizations across nine countries,
- 51:18Speaker 4: including the U.S., that are coordinating, organizing, and amplifying protests
- 51:22Speaker 4: in Europe. and expanding the ecosystem up from 54 organizations
- 51:27Speaker 4: that they had identified just on Monday. Most of the
- 51:30Speaker 4: groups are adult-led, and this represents a nexus of what
- 51:34Speaker 4: they call the Red-Green Alliance. I'm curious your thoughts. You're well-traveled.
- 51:39Speaker 4: You're probably as well-traveled as any person I know on
- 51:42Speaker 4: the planet. You watch these countries. You have negotiated with
- 51:46Speaker 4: them about things. What are you seeing? What's in front
- 51:48Speaker 4: of your eyes today?
- 51:50Speaker 2: It's like a witch's brew. I think that they are
- 51:52Speaker 2: coordinated movements, even though the fingerprints are perhaps distant to
- 51:56Speaker 2: the people involved in these movements. But the general purpose
- 52:00Speaker 2: of these movements or the coordination of these movements is
- 52:03Speaker 2: to have people doubt their ability to govern themselves. So
- 52:06Speaker 2: it's a loss of faith in democracy. And once you
- 52:08Speaker 2: lose that, then it becomes easy pickings or easier pickings
- 52:12Speaker 2: for somebody who would come in with a different plan, socialism, communism.
- 52:16Speaker 2: But in each of the countries, the initial complaint is,
- 52:19Speaker 2: seems to be different. In France, we don't have enough
- 52:23Speaker 2: money that's being spent on education. In Spain, we don't
- 52:27Speaker 2: have enough jobs. In Italy, other countries, oh, it's our
- 52:30Speaker 2: high fuel prices. The same in Germany, high fuel prices.
- 52:33Speaker 2: In Britain, although Britain hasn't broken out violently yet, it
- 52:37Speaker 2: will be a number of those things, probably the National
- 52:40Speaker 2: Health Service. It's basically the state isn't fixing our problems
- 52:44Speaker 2: and we're pissed off and we see only solution here
- 52:47Speaker 2: is to just go out and demonstrate and protest. But
- 52:50Speaker 2: it's also a witch's brew in the sense that it's
- 52:52Speaker 2: a generational struggle. The baby boom generation just spent and
- 52:57Speaker 2: spent and spent and expanded the size of the state,
- 53:01Speaker 2: particularly in the socialist countries in Europe. And they're now
- 53:06Speaker 2: to the breaking point. They borrowed too much money. They
- 53:08Speaker 2: can't pay the money back. They don't have the money
- 53:11Speaker 2: that they need to provide the social services that they've promised.
- 53:14Speaker 2: So everybody's angry. And there's no easy fix because there's
- 53:17Speaker 2: no economic growth in these countries because at the same
- 53:19Speaker 2: time as they did all the spending, they also promoted these,
- 53:24Speaker 2: you know, the massive Green New Deal movement. So basically
- 53:27Speaker 2: the Green New Deal movement is to de-industrialize, is to
- 53:30Speaker 2: take industrialization in your country and say, no, we don't
- 53:32Speaker 2: want to do that anymore. Because it's somehow going to
- 53:34Speaker 2: hurt the planet. So there's no economic growth. There are
- 53:37Speaker 2: burgeoning costs. And there's no fix. Now, added into the
- 53:42Speaker 2: witch's brew is also the untrammeled, unregulated open borders of migration.
- 53:48Speaker 2: And it's migration of mostly young Muslim men who do
- 53:52Speaker 2: not want– they may go to Germany. They may go
- 53:55Speaker 2: to Sweden. But they don't want to be assimilated in
- 53:57Speaker 2: those environments in those countries. They want to have their
- 53:59Speaker 2: own government in those countries. They want to bring down
- 54:02Speaker 2: the government of those countries. So that's in the witch's brew.
- 54:05Speaker 2: And then you've got the political, you know, who can
- 54:08Speaker 2: get elected to what. They're usually such narrow electoral margins
- 54:13Speaker 2: that that voting bloc now, this has become the Muslim
- 54:15Speaker 2: voting bloc, you can't ignore that. So that then there
- 54:18Speaker 2: becomes the political correctness part of it of, well, we
- 54:21Speaker 2: don't really want to go after those gang rapists in
- 54:25Speaker 2: Britain anymore. Because we don't want to really alienate that
- 54:31Speaker 2: voting bloc. So it's all those things together and there's
- 54:33Speaker 2: no fix. I see no fix coming because they won't
- 54:36Speaker 2: have the political will to do it. They need to
- 54:39Speaker 2: have economic growth, which is complicated. They need to cut
- 54:42Speaker 2: back on their social programs, which they can't do quickly.
- 54:45Speaker 2: And then they've got this massive percentage of their population dying.
- 54:50Speaker 2: burgeoning as a percentage, from a small percentage to 10, 15, 20, 30%
- 54:55Speaker 2: of populations, especially in the city, that are not culturally
- 55:02Speaker 2: in sync with the countries that they've immigrated to.
- 55:04Speaker 6: Lack of assimilation, basically.
- 55:06Speaker 2: There's no assimilation. They don't want assimilation. It was never
- 55:09Speaker 2: intended to assimilate. And I would put this on the
- 55:12Speaker 2: shoulders of Angela Merkel, the former chancellor of Germany, who
- 55:16Speaker 2: basically looked around and said, well, Europe is a dying population.
- 55:19Speaker 2: We're not reproducing enough. People aren't having enough children. They're
- 55:22Speaker 2: not getting married. We need to have workers who can
- 55:25Speaker 2: come and do the work. So we are going to
- 55:27Speaker 2: open our borders. to people from initially Turkey, but other
- 55:30Speaker 2: parts of the Middle East, Syria, et cetera, and they're
- 55:33Speaker 2: going to come and do the work. Well, duh, they came,
- 55:35Speaker 2: they didn't want to do the work, and now they
- 55:37Speaker 2: want to overthrow your countries. So that, I think, is
- 55:41Speaker 2: a whole witch's brew of the problems. America has a
- 55:44Speaker 2: different set of problems, and I think we have the solution,
- 55:47Speaker 2: and I think we're well on the way to solving
- 55:48Speaker 2: those problems.
- 55:49Speaker 4: Well, let's talk about that for a second, because I
- 55:52Speaker 4: think any keen observer would look at New York City–
- 55:55Speaker 4: would look at Dearborn, Michigan, would look at people like
- 55:58Speaker 4: Mamdani and Abdul El-Sayed and say, it appears that we've
- 56:05Speaker 4: at least let the nose of the dog in the house,
- 56:08Speaker 4: if we haven't let the whole thing in. How do
- 56:12Speaker 4: we not devolve into the same thing that you're watching
- 56:15Speaker 4: go on in Paris right now?
- 56:17Speaker 2: Well, a couple of reasons. One, the open borders of
- 56:20Speaker 2: Barack Obama and Joe Biden, those open borders did get
- 56:25Speaker 2: some of the people that you're talking about, Dearborn, Michigan,
- 56:27Speaker 2: et cetera, the people who don't want to assimilate into
- 56:29Speaker 2: the United States, into the American culture.
- 56:31Speaker 4: I mean, half the state of Minnesota seems like it's
- 56:34Speaker 4: Somali now. I know it's not, but it seems like
- 56:36Speaker 4: it is.
- 56:37Speaker 2: But they're getting all the headlines. But the majority of
- 56:39Speaker 2: the illegal immigrants who came to the United States are
- 56:43Speaker 2: similar culturally than us. You know, they want to work.
- 56:45Speaker 2: They believe in God. They believe in capitalists and they
- 56:48Speaker 2: just want to. It's an economic thing. Now, that's not
- 56:51Speaker 2: all of them, but let's say that's 75 percent of
- 56:53Speaker 2: the immigrants who came. But the other thing is that
- 56:55Speaker 2: thank God for President Trump because he looks at the U.S.
- 56:59Speaker 2: economy and the world economy and he came to a
- 57:00Speaker 2: couple of really startling conclusions. Number one, every country needs
- 57:05Speaker 2: to sell their goods in the American market or they
- 57:08Speaker 2: can't survive because we're the only country that buys stuff.
- 57:11Speaker 2: So what we're going to do is charge them for
- 57:12Speaker 2: that privilege. They're going to have to pay a tariff.
- 57:15Speaker 2: We've never done that before. In fact, we've done the opposite.
- 57:17Speaker 2: But so all of a sudden, we're charging tariffs. So
- 57:20Speaker 2: our goods, export goods, are competing with their import goods.
- 57:23Speaker 2: That's number one. And number two, he looked at America
- 57:26Speaker 2: and he said, whoa, we have de-industrialized. We have sent
- 57:29Speaker 2: all those factory jobs from the Midwest into China. We
- 57:32Speaker 2: are going to reverse that. We are going to make
- 57:34Speaker 2: stuff in America again. And that's why every agreement that
- 57:37Speaker 2: he signs with a country, with a company, always has
- 57:40Speaker 2: a part where we promise to invest a trillion dollars
- 57:45Speaker 2: in the American economy. We promise to build factories in
- 57:49Speaker 2: In Iowa, name your state. And these are going to
- 57:51Speaker 2: be modern, state-of-the-art factories. It's not going to be old
- 57:53Speaker 2: Rust Belt stuff. This is going to be new manufacturing jobs.
- 57:57Speaker 2: A lot of it driven by artificial intelligence, but it's
- 57:59Speaker 2: going to create hundreds of thousands, millions of new jobs.
- 58:03Speaker 2: So we're going to have economic growth. And then the
- 58:05Speaker 2: next thing is that energy dominance. That energy that the
- 58:08Speaker 2: United States has that, again, Barack Obama and Joe Biden
- 58:12Speaker 2: just wanted to crush it because they believed in deindustrialization.
- 58:17Speaker 2: They believed that we shouldn't be making stuff. And they
- 58:19Speaker 2: were so worried about the Green New Deal stuff that
- 58:22Speaker 2: they didn't sort of put it all together to say
- 58:24Speaker 2: the United States can't afford this and that we are
- 58:26Speaker 2: going to slide into economic despondency. Meanwhile, China doesn't care
- 58:31Speaker 2: about the Green New Deal at all. and they're going
- 58:34Speaker 2: to produce far more pollutants to the world than America
- 58:37Speaker 2: ever could. So because Trump said, well, that's nuts, and
- 58:41Speaker 2: because Trump unleashed the American energy industry with fracking oil
- 58:44Speaker 2: and natural gas, we suddenly have more energy, oil and
- 58:48Speaker 2: natural gas, than any other country in the world. We
- 58:51Speaker 2: have way more than we need. We can export it.
- 58:53Speaker 2: We can have that be a big business for us,
- 58:56Speaker 2: very lucrative business. And what it also does is, is
- 58:59Speaker 2: so loosens our dependency on the middle east for sure
- 59:02Speaker 2: but it allows trump to control a lot of the
- 59:05Speaker 2: oil industry globally with the united states and now that
- 59:08Speaker 2: we have venezuela which is a huge unappreciated asset and
- 59:12Speaker 2: now we have greenland which may be potentially be a
- 59:14Speaker 2: huge source of raw materials and oil and natural gas
- 59:18Speaker 2: we now control 60 70 of the world's energy and
- 59:24Speaker 2: that's huge why Because it means we can make stuff
- 59:26Speaker 2: in America cheaper than anybody else can because our energy
- 59:29Speaker 2: costs are going to be so much less than anybody else's.
- 59:32Speaker 2: And then finally, with what President Trump did about a
- 59:35Speaker 2: month ago where he invited all the AI tech executives
- 59:38Speaker 2: to the United States, to Washington, and said, okay, let's
- 59:41Speaker 2: work with you guys. Now, the tech people never wanted
- 59:44Speaker 2: to work with Washington. They thought it was somehow dirty,
- 59:46Speaker 2: a dirty business working with government. But now they're embracing it.
- 59:50Speaker 2: And because artificial intelligence, quantum computing, is going to be
- 59:53Speaker 2: the wave of the future, whoever gets there first, us
- 59:57Speaker 2: or China, we're ahead. China's trying to catch up. Everybody
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: else is a distant third. Whoever gets there first, not
- 1:00:03Speaker 2: only is that quantum computing is a quantum belief into
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: the future production, the whole way our society works. So
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: we've got to be first. Now, what do you need
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: to have quantum computing and technological superiority? Well, you need
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: the technology. We've got that. But you need cheap energy.
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: China does not have that. We have that. So all
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: those things added together in a happy cocktail, not a
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: witch's brew, but a happy cocktail, to me point to
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: massive economic growth for the United States going ahead. Now,
- 1:00:30Speaker 2: what does that do? It means that all the grousing
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: people who are saying this is so terrible, we don't
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: have this, we don't have that, which is sort of
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: seed corn. of these protest movements are happening in America,
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: but they're not going to happen for long. And if
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: you look at American history, every time we've had economic dislocation,
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: we've had these movements, communist, socialist, whatever you want to
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: call them, but they disappear the minute we have economic growth.
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: And because we're going to have economic growth and nobody
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: else is, I think we are very well equipped to
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: handle the future.
- 1:00:59Speaker 9: Wow.
- 1:01:00Speaker 4: That's an amazingly positive outlook, KT. And I'm Really grateful
- 1:01:04Speaker 4: to hear it, actually, because I've been looking at all
- 1:01:06Speaker 4: this going, we feel like we're on the slippery slope
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: headed in some of this direction. But you've pointed out
- 1:01:13Speaker 4: many good points, and I'm always grateful.
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: Well, thank you. I'm afraid that was a little bit
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: of a machine gun run.
- 1:01:19Speaker 4: No, but it was.
- 1:01:20Speaker 2: I'm very confident about that.
- 1:01:21Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm going to go back and re-listen to the
- 1:01:22Speaker 4: podcast because I need to use these talking points with friends. KT,
- 1:01:27Speaker 4: always appreciate it. Thanks for being with us.
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: It's a pleasure. Thank you.
- 1:01:30Speaker 4: Kevin McCullough coming right back. Don't go away.
- 1:01:33Speaker 6: Stick around for more of That Kevin next.
- 1:01:37Speaker 5: Here he is from New York.
- 1:01:57Speaker 6: That Kevin. Kevin McCullough.
- 1:02:01Speaker 4: Welcome back. Kevin McCullough. The phone number I want you
- 1:02:07Speaker 4: to memorize is 888-342-1010.
- 1:02:10Speaker 8: 888-342-1010.
- 1:02:10Speaker 4: You may have heard me give that phone number a
- 1:02:12Speaker 4: time or two because over the last 10 years, we've
- 1:02:15Speaker 4: used that phone number as kind of a secret code
- 1:02:18Speaker 4: to help slaves be liberated, to help captives be set
- 1:02:21Speaker 4: free with a group called Christian Solidarity International. And because
- 1:02:25Speaker 4: of our efforts, you just have to know there's like
- 1:02:28Speaker 4: 3,800 women and children that have been set free and
- 1:02:33Speaker 4: slaves that have been liberated over the last 10 years
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: or so, according to the records at Christian Solidarity International.
- 1:02:39Speaker 4: Just those of you that have done it with us,
- 1:02:41Speaker 4: that's how many human lives we've actually set free. And
- 1:02:45Speaker 4: that encourages me, friends. And the reason I love doing
- 1:02:47Speaker 4: it right now is because what could be a better
- 1:02:49Speaker 4: Christmas present for the end of the year than to
- 1:02:53Speaker 4: tell a woman who has lived her entire life in
- 1:02:56Speaker 4: abject slavery that you're going to have freedom? Todd Chapman
- 1:02:59Speaker 4: is back with us from Christian Solidarity International. And Todd,
- 1:03:02Speaker 4: I think it's hard for us to relate because I've
- 1:03:04Speaker 4: never really suffered anything like that. Like, I don't have
- 1:03:08Speaker 4: the first clue how desperate, how painful, how awful these
- 1:03:15Speaker 4: slaves have been treated. Because I've never, my worst experiences
- 1:03:19Speaker 4: on planet Earth, you know, all of them my entire
- 1:03:22Speaker 4: life added up probably wouldn't match like one hour of
- 1:03:25Speaker 4: what they experienced in slavery. And they've done it. for
- 1:03:28Speaker 4: dozens of years in some cases. But to know that
- 1:03:32Speaker 4: as dark as that is, that our gift can bring
- 1:03:35Speaker 4: them into a place that is full of hope and
- 1:03:37Speaker 4: light and joy and wonder this Christmas season, that gets
- 1:03:41Speaker 4: me pretty excited.
- 1:03:43Speaker 9: Yeah, it is pretty awesome. I think it's hard for
- 1:03:45Speaker 9: us in general here in America to wrap our minds around.
- 1:03:49Speaker 9: I mean, we kind of get it intellectually, but I mean,
- 1:03:52Speaker 9: on a very visceral, emotional level, to wrap our minds
- 1:03:56Speaker 9: around the fact that today in 2026, there are actually
- 1:04:00Speaker 9: more slaves on planet Earth, more people enslaved than at
- 1:04:03Speaker 9: any other time in human history. Like for us, because
- 1:04:06Speaker 9: we're so sheltered and we don't really see that, you know,
- 1:04:11Speaker 9: you know, I think if you really think about that
- 1:04:13Speaker 9: for a second, it's pretty staggering. And I don't know,
- 1:04:16Speaker 9: for me as a follower of Christ, it really does.
- 1:04:19Speaker 9: I'm very convicted as I believe we all should be.
- 1:04:23Speaker 9: You know, far be it for me to impose my
- 1:04:25Speaker 9: worldview on you. But I think, you know, if we
- 1:04:28Speaker 9: if we do look at the word of God and
- 1:04:30Speaker 9: we recognize that, man, God came. Jesus said it. I
- 1:04:34Speaker 9: have come to set captives free, to declare freedom for
- 1:04:38Speaker 9: the prisoners. And we are called to do that. So
- 1:04:40Speaker 9: from a ministry standpoint. Man, we are in the optimal
- 1:04:44Speaker 9: time to make a huge difference globally and individually just
- 1:04:48Speaker 9: by setting captives free. But I get it. It's overwhelming.
- 1:04:51Speaker 9: It's like, well, I wouldn't know where to begin. That's
- 1:04:53Speaker 9: why what we're inviting you to do through CSI is
- 1:04:56Speaker 9: so powerful because we're telling you exactly what you can do,
- 1:05:00Speaker 9: who it's going to free, and how much it costs.
- 1:05:03Speaker 9: And it's not that much money, $ 250. And you will
- 1:05:06Speaker 9: set a person like a juke. I'm looking at her
- 1:05:09Speaker 9: story here. She was three years old when armed men
- 1:05:12Speaker 9: stormed into her village. They dragged she and her mom
- 1:05:16Speaker 9: north into slavery. She said she, I still remember, she
- 1:05:19Speaker 9: still remembers that her grandmother was there at the time.
- 1:05:22Speaker 9: And she's like desperately trying to cling to them as
- 1:05:24Speaker 9: the men are dragging them away. You can just see
- 1:05:26Speaker 9: it in your mind, right? This horrific picture of violence
- 1:05:30Speaker 9: and separation. But the abductors beat her grandmother to the ground,
- 1:05:33Speaker 9: left her to die because she was too old to
- 1:05:35Speaker 9: be useful is what they said.
- 1:05:37Speaker 8: Mm-hmm.
- 1:05:38Speaker 9: So now in the north, they tore a juke away
- 1:05:40Speaker 9: from her mom. She never saw her mom again. So
- 1:05:44Speaker 9: now this young girl, three years of age, she's lost
- 1:05:46Speaker 9: her grandmother, beaten right before her eyes. She's taken to
- 1:05:49Speaker 9: a strange place with her mom, but then they take
- 1:05:51Speaker 9: her mom away from her. And then it's just game
- 1:05:54Speaker 9: on from there, from early childhood all the way into adulthood.
- 1:05:57Speaker 9: She was forced to work from sunrise to late into
- 1:05:59Speaker 9: the night, hauling water, grinding grain, tending animals, tough physical work.
- 1:06:04Speaker 9: And if she slowed down, she was beaten with sticks
- 1:06:07Speaker 9: or with fists. And then as she got older, it
- 1:06:10Speaker 9: gets even worse. If you can imagine that her master
- 1:06:12Speaker 9: began raping her, she became pregnant twice. And when she
- 1:06:17Speaker 9: finally fled, she had to make an unbearable choice to
- 1:06:20Speaker 9: leave one of her children behind in the hands of
- 1:06:22Speaker 9: her abuser. Thankfully, one of our slave retrievers found her
- 1:06:26Speaker 9: in a market, followed her home, negotiated her rescue with
- 1:06:30Speaker 9: that cow vaccine, but was not able to get both
- 1:06:33Speaker 9: of her children out. So a juke, as you can imagine,
- 1:06:36Speaker 9: even though she's safe today, She is just praying that
- 1:06:40Speaker 9: somehow God will deliver her remaining child, you know, and
- 1:06:44Speaker 9: reunite them. That's just one story, Kevin, in amongst thousands.
- 1:06:49Speaker 9: I mean, we have liberated over the past decades through CSI,
- 1:06:53Speaker 9: people like you have liberated about 150,000 people that were
- 1:06:58Speaker 9: trapped in that situation. And I guarantee you, unless you've
- 1:07:01Speaker 9: listened to this program for a while, you never even
- 1:07:04Speaker 9: knew this was a thing. Most people don't know that
- 1:07:07Speaker 9: this ever happened, but it's one of the biggest slave
- 1:07:10Speaker 9: situations in human history in the last 50 to 100 years.
- 1:07:16Speaker 9: And most people don't know about it. But now you do.
- 1:07:18Speaker 9: And now you know how you can help.
- 1:07:20Speaker 4: It's really remarkable. And friends, one of the things that
- 1:07:24Speaker 4: as Todd was telling a juke story and I've heard
- 1:07:27Speaker 4: her story several times and it always kind of gets
- 1:07:30Speaker 4: to me. Because, again, who of us in America have
- 1:07:34Speaker 4: gone through anything like that? I mean, it is really
- 1:07:38Speaker 4: just disheartening. The idea of having a friend or friendships.
- 1:07:42Speaker 4: You know, Todd, we take those things for granted.
- 1:07:44Speaker 9: Oh, we do.
- 1:07:45Speaker 4: And we throw friends away faster than we sometimes throw
- 1:07:49Speaker 4: fast food wrappers away. Like, oh, they're my friend. But
- 1:07:54Speaker 4: these are women that form bonds over shared experiences and sufferings.
- 1:07:59Speaker 4: But now they get to live in the joy of Jesus.
- 1:08:02Speaker 4: And friend, your gift makes that happen. It is the
- 1:08:06Speaker 4: light switch that turns their life from a dark room
- 1:08:09Speaker 4: into a bright light. And you get to be part
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: of that.
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: 888-342-1010.
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: $ 250 rescues one slave. We have a list of 232
- 1:08:18Speaker 4: names that we are aiming to liberate by Christmas. But
- 1:08:22Speaker 4: we need your help right now. And if you can
- 1:08:23Speaker 4: do a large gift, $ 2, 500, you're going to help set
- 1:08:25Speaker 4: 10 women free today. 888-342-1010 888-342-1010 Please call right now.
- 1:08:54Speaker 6: Here he is from New York, that Kevin.
- 1:08:58Speaker 2: Kevin.
- 1:09:00Speaker 6: McCullough.
- 1:09:01Speaker 4: Welcome back to Times Square. Kevin McCullough, glad to have
- 1:09:03Speaker 4: you with us. It's that Kevin show from New York
- 1:09:07Speaker 4: to San Diego, Anchorage to Miami Beach. We're glad you're
- 1:09:09Speaker 4: with us. 400 stations nationwide. Thank you for making us
- 1:09:13Speaker 4: your choice. Simon Hankinson is with the Heritage Foundation. I've
- 1:09:16Speaker 4: seen him all over media this week because he kind
- 1:09:18Speaker 4: of specializes in all the stuff that's making the headlines. Simon,
- 1:09:21Speaker 4: it's good to see you. Thank you for being here.
- 1:09:23Speaker 4: Good morning. I have been making this observation and very
- 1:09:28Speaker 4: few people have been willing to engage me on this,
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: but no one's given me an answer to it either.
- 1:09:32Speaker 4: So I want to know. I'm seeing these protests take
- 1:09:36Speaker 4: place and I'm seeing the founding reasons. It's disturbance about
- 1:09:42Speaker 4: education or social services or all these other things. And
- 1:09:46Speaker 4: then somehow it's like a bait and switch. You see
- 1:09:49Speaker 4: Palestinian flags and death to the West being chanted and
- 1:09:52Speaker 4: all kinds of other things coming out. What's the connective
- 1:09:55Speaker 4: tissue here?
- 1:09:56Speaker 6: So I'll back up a bit.
- 1:09:57Speaker 8: Just imagine you're preparing for a big July 4th party
- 1:10:01Speaker 8: and you've got your house stacked with some wood for
- 1:10:04Speaker 8: the barbecue, some charcoal, some lighter, some firecrackers, a box
- 1:10:09Speaker 8: of hand grenades, you know, whatever it is that you
- 1:10:11Speaker 8: want to do on July 4th. And then someone throws
- 1:10:13Speaker 8: a match through your front door and the house goes up.
- 1:10:15Speaker 8: What was it that caught fire? France has underlying structural problems.
- 1:10:21Speaker 8: And those are that they haven't bounced a budget in
- 1:10:23Speaker 8: 50 years. They have 120% debt to GDP. They can't
- 1:10:26Speaker 8: print money the way we can. We have the same problems,
- 1:10:29Speaker 8: but they're not as acute. And they have a bloated
- 1:10:32Speaker 8: welfare bill where if you're a railway worker, for example,
- 1:10:35Speaker 8: you can retire at my age in my late 50s,
- 1:10:38Speaker 8: never work again and live off a pension. So the
- 1:10:41Speaker 8: math doesn't add up. And each time you get a
- 1:10:44Speaker 8: government that dares to try to tweak it a little
- 1:10:46Speaker 8: bit by, say, raising their retirement age a year or
- 1:10:49Speaker 8: making it a little easier for students to get jobs
- 1:10:51Speaker 8: instead of live on unemployment, People go out in the
- 1:10:54Speaker 8: streets and burn stuff. I saw this when I was
- 1:10:56Speaker 8: council general in Marseille at least three or four times. Now,
- 1:11:00Speaker 8: you add to that an election in April and a
- 1:11:03Speaker 8: far-left party. It's called La France Insoumise, France Unbowed is
- 1:11:08Speaker 8: how they say it in English, and a lot of
- 1:11:10Speaker 8: very organized militant labor organizations, unions, and leftist, basically anti-Western
- 1:11:19Speaker 8: organizations who are well-funded. And on top of that, you
- 1:11:23Speaker 8: add a large cohort of jobless, just feckless, unassimilated second
- 1:11:29Speaker 8: and third generation immigrants who are just mad and want
- 1:11:32Speaker 8: something to break. And you have this toxic combination, which
- 1:11:36Speaker 8: is blown up in the streets. So legitimate issues, yes,
- 1:11:40Speaker 8: mixed up with what they call gas cell breakers, vandals, looters.
- 1:11:45Speaker 4: That sounds like a terrible place to be. How do
- 1:11:50Speaker 4: they begin to recover from that? What can you fiscally do?
- 1:11:54Speaker 4: What can you, from a law enforcement perspective, do to
- 1:11:57Speaker 4: bring about some sort of order out of that chaos?
- 1:12:01Speaker 8: Well, France does have a very centralized and well-trained national police.
- 1:12:06Speaker 8: They don't have state and local police like we do.
- 1:12:08Speaker 8: They've got a national police service, and they have gendarmes
- 1:12:12Speaker 8: who are basically the police but in between cities, in
- 1:12:15Speaker 8: the villages and the smaller towns. I think there's like
- 1:12:18Speaker 8: 130,000 gendarmes. I don't know, the National Police probably around there.
- 1:12:22Speaker 8: And then they've also got specialist anti-riot units. And then
- 1:12:25Speaker 8: they have a military, which, of course, you know, the
- 1:12:27Speaker 8: French Foreign Legion and then all the regular units. It's
- 1:12:29Speaker 8: one of the bigger militaries in Europe. So they do
- 1:12:33Speaker 8: have technically the means to put down riots. The problem
- 1:12:35Speaker 8: is when all of the riots happen at the same
- 1:12:38Speaker 8: time all across France, they're outnumbered. And so I think
- 1:12:43Speaker 8: at this point it's a matter of will and also means.
- 1:12:47Speaker 8: But the state, again, or I haven't said this yet,
- 1:12:50Speaker 8: but the state is criticized by the far left. Just
- 1:12:53Speaker 8: like here, when there's a massive riot and things are
- 1:12:55Speaker 8: getting looted and it's mostly peaceful, you know, flames everywhere,
- 1:12:58Speaker 8: the police hit the wrong guy on the head with
- 1:13:00Speaker 8: a truncheon and all of a sudden it's all about
- 1:13:02Speaker 8: police violence. So the left throws a hand grenade and
- 1:13:06Speaker 8: then it blows up and then they blame the police
- 1:13:08Speaker 8: for knocking someone over on the way to putting the.
- 1:13:10Speaker 6: Fire out or whatever.
- 1:13:11Speaker 8: That's, you know, the problem right now is too much,
- 1:13:14Speaker 8: too fast.
- 1:13:15Speaker 4: That's best practice. kind of illustrated by Ilan Omar and
- 1:13:18Speaker 4: what she's going through. Give me an update from your
- 1:13:20Speaker 4: perspective on her situation.
- 1:13:22Speaker 8: Yeah, she's very much representative of what happens when you
- 1:13:26Speaker 8: bring a clan and tribal culture intact from the third
- 1:13:32Speaker 8: world to the first. You know, we've had an incredible
- 1:13:35Speaker 8: success story in the United States of assimilating people because
- 1:13:38Speaker 8: we break up those ancient grudges and feuds and networks
- 1:13:42Speaker 8: in a good way. We keep the food and the
- 1:13:45Speaker 8: religion and the culture, whatever it is that makes people
- 1:13:47Speaker 8: strong communities, but we get rid of the beefs and
- 1:13:51Speaker 8: the political angst. But in Minnesota, you've seen what happens
- 1:13:56Speaker 8: when you bring a large number of people from one country, Somalia,
- 1:13:59Speaker 8: that is dysfunctional, where it's highly corrupt. You don't rely
- 1:14:02Speaker 8: on the government. People, if they have an opportunity to
- 1:14:05Speaker 8: take from the state, will do so without a moment's notice.
- 1:14:08Speaker 8: High corruption, low trust, high fraud. And unfortunately, the block
- 1:14:13Speaker 8: vote of those communities is able to elect members of
- 1:14:17Speaker 8: Congress and even senators. We've seen in New York State
- 1:14:21Speaker 8: and New York City how there are members of Congress
- 1:14:25Speaker 8: being elected. I think one in Minnesota likely to be
- 1:14:27Speaker 8: elected from the Democratic Socialists of America using these ethnic
- 1:14:30Speaker 8: block votes. So it's happening here just a little bit
- 1:14:33Speaker 8: more diffused and a little bit slower than in France.
- 1:14:36Speaker 4: Let's talk about Ilan Omar's sister. There's a rumor out
- 1:14:41Speaker 4: today that the feds were talking to her sister at
- 1:14:44Speaker 4: length after the raid went down. What do you make
- 1:14:47Speaker 4: of that?
- 1:14:48Speaker 8: I also heard, and again, this is unsubstantiated, that they
- 1:14:51Speaker 8: had obtained her cell phone. And from that, we're able
- 1:14:56Speaker 8: to pick up a bunch of messages that are probably
- 1:14:58Speaker 8: not flattering to whatever story they're going to try to
- 1:15:00Speaker 8: stick with.
- 1:15:00Speaker 4: Well, Fox is the one reporting that the sister was
- 1:15:03Speaker 4: spoken to by the feds. And I have seen those
- 1:15:06Speaker 4: same reports about the congresswoman's cell phone and her laptop
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: and other things.
- 1:15:10Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, I've done thousands of immigrant visa cases.
- 1:15:15Speaker 8: And I can tell you that in high fraud countries
- 1:15:17Speaker 8: like Somalia, you don't have any reliable documents. I mean, literally,
- 1:15:20Speaker 8: there won't be birth certificates. There won't be marriage certificates.
- 1:15:23Speaker 8: They'll say, well, I was born in a village. Here
- 1:15:26Speaker 8: are some elders who will testify to when I was born.
- 1:15:28Speaker 8: It's usually January 1st. And then when they get married,
- 1:15:31Speaker 8: they'll say we had a traditional ceremony. And here are
- 1:15:33Speaker 8: the elders that will sign an affidavit, literally sometimes with
- 1:15:36Speaker 8: their thumbs, because they are illiterate. So how do they
- 1:15:38Speaker 8: know what they're signing? Somebody reads it to them. So
- 1:15:41Speaker 8: you have a mountain, a house of cards built on
- 1:15:44Speaker 8: what's possibly bogus information, including family relationships. When you want
- 1:15:49Speaker 8: to get out of a refugee camp like they did,
- 1:15:51Speaker 8: probably the Dabab camp in Kenya, You have to say,
- 1:15:54Speaker 8: this is my son, this is my daughter, because otherwise
- 1:15:56Speaker 8: they don't qualify for the refugee status. What if there
- 1:15:59Speaker 8: was a lie at the very beginning? What if Ilhan
- 1:16:01Speaker 8: Omar's father isn't her father and her sister isn't her sister?
- 1:16:05Speaker 8: Maybe her brother is her brother, but maybe he's a
- 1:16:07Speaker 8: complete stranger. So I think when you pull up that thread,
- 1:16:10Speaker 8: you're going to find massive fraud at the root of
- 1:16:14Speaker 8: that immigration case.
- 1:16:15Speaker 4: Okay, we're going to have to see what happens there,
- 1:16:17Speaker 4: because there's a lot of people that say if it
- 1:16:18Speaker 4: is fraudulent, that's a case for deportation. And I don't
- 1:16:22Speaker 4: think we've ever deported a sitting congressperson before. Anyway, we'll
- 1:16:25Speaker 4: see more on that. Simon Hankinson, thank you for all
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: your insights. We appreciate it.

- 1:18:52Speaker 4: Thank you, Tony, for being part of the show. I
- 1:18:55Speaker 4: want to say thank you every day. And if you
- 1:18:57Speaker 4: have not yet done so, we are still asking you
- 1:19:00Speaker 4: to help us with the effort to liberate human lives
- 1:19:05Speaker 4: this Christmas. So far, we have 232 slaves that we
- 1:19:11Speaker 4: know the names of. But I believe that to date,
- 1:19:16Speaker 4: only six have been liberated. And we've been talking about
- 1:19:21Speaker 4: this for a few days. And friends, we're not going
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: to get all 232 liberated by the end of the
- 1:19:26Speaker 4: year if we keep that kind of pace. So as
- 1:19:28Speaker 4: you hear us talking about it, if you have compassion
- 1:19:32Speaker 4: for women, if you are concerned about racial violence and
- 1:19:36Speaker 4: other things, And you feel like you're hopeless at other
- 1:19:39Speaker 4: times to be able to do anything about it. By
- 1:19:42Speaker 4: liberating a slave, there's a lot of good things going on.
- 1:19:46Speaker 4: You're slowing the impact of radical Islam. You're advancing the
- 1:19:50Speaker 4: cause of Christianity. You're showing women respect that they have
- 1:19:54Speaker 4: been denied. You're taking a stand for what is true.
- 1:19:58Speaker 4: And I would encourage you to join us on the effort.
- 1:20:01Speaker 8: 888-342-1010.
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: 888-342-1010. I would be really glad if you would join
- 1:20:10Speaker 4: us on that effort today.
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:20:12Speaker 4: Supporters of the New Orleans Saints are marching into France.
- 1:20:18Speaker 4: And the wave began early Tuesday when an Air France
- 1:20:20Speaker 4: charter flight carrying Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry and others expected
- 1:20:25Speaker 4: to arrive at Charles de Gaulle Airport northeast of Paris.
- 1:20:28Speaker 4: The Republican governor wearing a hoodie with the Saints trademark
- 1:20:33Speaker 4: fleur-de-lis symbol across his chest, left Louis Armstrong Airport on
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: Monday night. He spoke with reporters before boarding his flight
- 1:20:41Speaker 4: with a bunch of folks who would spend the week
- 1:20:43Speaker 4: in France before Sunday's NFL games. He seemed confident that
- 1:20:47Speaker 4: the trip's safety risk was manageable, but the NFL hasn't
- 1:20:51Speaker 4: said that. And what's interesting is the people in France
- 1:20:55Speaker 4: have not necessarily said that either. It's not that mass
- 1:20:57Speaker 4: numbers of civilians are dying or anything like that, but
- 1:21:00Speaker 4: these riots, they are really out of control. And It's
- 1:21:05Speaker 4: going to be interesting because the NFL is in Paris
- 1:21:07Speaker 4: this coming weekend. It's the first time I think they've
- 1:21:09Speaker 4: done the NFL in Paris, but we'll see. We'll see
- 1:21:12Speaker 4: how they do this weekend's game. It'll be very, very interesting.
- 1:21:16Speaker 4: All right, Kevin McCullough, we will see you tomorrow. Thank
- 1:21:18Speaker 4: you for being here. It's That Kevin Show and thatkevinshow.com
- 1:21:22Speaker 4: for anything you may have missed.
