• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Well, live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: It's America's favorite gun, total Bible clinging, deplorable America.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: That's US American.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Todd Starns.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Well, well, hello, everybody, welcome to the Todd Serns Radio Program.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: What an honor to have you with us today as
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: we broadcast border to border, coast to coast across the
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Fruited Plain. Dyla, I have to laugh at you. I
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: was going through some emails, and you know, one of
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: the things that we do on the show. A lot
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: of people think, oh, well, you know, Starns has an
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: easy gig, right, All he does is work three hours
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: a day and then he can put his feet up
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: and enjoy delicious cold frosty Doctor Pepper or two and
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: or three and so it Starns hasn't made. But but no,
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: we actually do a lot of things outside of the Well.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: First of all, it takes multiple hours to prepare for
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: broadcast excellence, and that normally starts in the right after
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: the show concludes for the next day. And then we've
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: got the I've got the NEWSMAC show, so we do
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: a full hour on TV, and that, you know, is
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: weird because you know, we have to do the makeup
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: and the hair, and you gotta look you got to
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: look your best on TV. You can't look like a
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: slob on you know, national television. So that takes a
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: little bit of time to get me looking somewhat presentable.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: And then you know, there are all these other things,
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: you know, people asked for to do interviews, and we
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: try to accommodate everybody. So last night, last night, I
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: there was a little calendar alert that I had an
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: interview to do at six thirty in the morning, and
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Della was like, do I have to be there?
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: I did say that. I responded almost immediately.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: Oh I saw that. Normally, being the Gentzrer, you'd never
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: respond to any text messages after hours.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, this is the one that I have made
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: an exception.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Boy, you sure did. I've never seen anybody reply so
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: quickly to it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: Well, six thirties very early.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: That means me wake up, Well, it does, because you
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: know you don't want to you know, I've I've heard
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: these early morning I'm not an early morning guy, that
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: is I. I just don't do it. There's a there's
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: a great radio station in Gamesville Georgia. Our affiliate there,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: longtime affiliate Bill Wtun and Bill Mayne is the big
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: boss there. He's the man, and he does something like,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: I don't know, a fourteen hour morning show I've never seen.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: And the guy's up at like at the crack of
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it's not even the crack of dawn. Dawn is not
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: even cracked yet. He is there to watch dawn crack.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: And nobody wants to say he dawns Greg. I'm not
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: sure where I was going with that, but anyway, all
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: that to say Bill Main is just he sounds so
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: chipper and show starts to like two in the morning
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: or something, and he always sounds so refreshed and like ah,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: you know. And then he he goes home and he
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: walks the dog, and then he puts on his boss
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: hat and comes back to the office. The guy works
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: like twenty four hours a day. I don't know how
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: he does it. I'm not that guy I have, you know.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: I set my alarm and this is how bad it is, Dylan.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: I set my alarm at five o'clock every morning because
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: I say I'm gonna get up, I'm gonna I've got
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: to get the coffee on I've gotta do the uh,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: I gotta write my my, my monologue. We got to
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: put out the newsletter. And then I'm gonna go for
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: the walk at Shelby Farms in the morning. That's at
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: five o'clock in the morning. So five o'clock in the
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: morning and my, uh, my alarm goes off and I
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: hit it and reset it for five thirty, goes off again.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I set it for six. So around some of o'clock
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: in the morning is pretty much when I actually begin
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: to look somewhat functional.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: You're in the right direction, though, because most people don't
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: even do that.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: No, they don't.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: And I've heard that you could. You could set your
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: alarm to wake you up, but your alarm is farther
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: away from your bed, so you actually have to get
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: up out of bed to turn it off. Yeah.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to do that. I'm not that's too
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: much work. Rather, but then this morning, you know who,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: I was getting these text alerts at like five a m.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: This morning, and I had already said I was, I
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: was getting ready to get up and like go w
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: in the rold is texted was Ben Deeter.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you and Ben Deeter early risers now.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Early risers, early risers.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: It's good for you, I've heard.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's tired, it's debatable, it's debatable. So anyway, all
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: that is, I have no idea why I just shared
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: that information. I just wanted to, you know, see if
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: we could relate ladies and gentlemen. Hey, can we talk
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: about this this debate last night in California. He there is
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: this is really interesting. So they have what they call
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: a jungle primary. So it's not like you have a
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Republican primary and a Democrat primary and then the winners
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: based off in the general. In this particular race, it's
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: everybody's in the same pool and whoever comes out on
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: top in the primary, they go toe to toe and
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter if they're two Democrats two Republicans. But
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: that's how they do it. And the polling data has
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: been really looking good for has really been looking good
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: for Steve Hilton, who is leading the polls. And then
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: there's a guy by the name of Chad Bianco who
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: is the sheriff of Riverside County and he is tied
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: for second place with a with a guy named Tom
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Steyer who's the Democrat. And so they were all up
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: on stage. You had Javier Massera, you had Katie porter Man.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: She is a mean woman, I mean, she is not
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: a very kind person. And there was a guy I
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: was not all that familiar with anyway. I thought it
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: was interesting because there was a huge conversation about English
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: and whether or not whether or not truck drivers should
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: be required to speak English. And I thought this was
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: an odd conversation to have. But California's come under fire
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: because they have issued I believe seventeen thousand commercial drivers'
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: licenses to illegal aliens and none of them speak English,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and a lot of people are really concerned about that.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: I know, the federal government stepped in and Sean Duffy,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the Transportation Secretary, has actually put a freeze on well
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: over one hundred some million dollars in funding because because
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: the state of California now refuses to resend all of
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: those commercial drivers' licenses. And people are really really nervous
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: about all of this. But the Democrats are saying, how
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: dare how dare you? Who do you think you are?
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I want you to listen to Katie Porter And the
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: question was about whether or not illegal alien truck drivers
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: who are driving eighty thousand pound trucks should be required
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: to know that that big yellow sign says sharp curve ahead.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Here's what Katie Porter had to say.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: Porter saying, question, do you believe that English proficiency language
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: proficiency should be strictly enforced for truck drivers? You have
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: sixty seconds.
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: I would absolutely fight the Trump administration because the job
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: of the California governor is to protect Californians, and right
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: now that includes protecting them from Donald Trump. Protecting Californians
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: also includes enforcing traffic laws, and we've seen sometimes a
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: need for oversight in California. For example, we have seeing
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: that the Department of Motor Vehicles was not enforcing rules
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: around DUIs and drivers who had convictions for that. I
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: am stunned that mister Bianco would say to block and
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: brown Californians and immigrants who are being terrorized and racially
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: profiled that you have to get over racism. It's not
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: something that you get over, it's something that you fight.
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: And if he doesn't understand the importance of that, he
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: has no business representing a state with the diversity of California.
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: Mis Porter, thank you very much, mister Biancle. I'll give
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: you fifteen seconds to respond.
• 8:31
  Speaker 7: Yeah, again, that's not even close to what I said.
• 8:33
  Speaker 7: What I said is we're Californians, and I'm speaking for them,
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: especially from law enforcement when I deal with persons of
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: color every single day. Californians are absolutely sick and tired
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: of our politicians making race the basis of everything it
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: is not. And this racial divide that they are pushing
• 8:49
  Speaker 7: between law enforcement and the public or Democrat and Republican
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: absolutely has to stop. And I'm telling you we are.
• 8:58
  Speaker 8: Sick of it.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: Boy, this is a head scrancher here. But all the
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: Democrats on the stage say the same thing that forcing
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: black and brown Californians and illegals to know what the
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: word stop means is racial profiling. Now again, seventeen thousand
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: illegals allowed to obtain commercial driver's licenses in California alone.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: We're hearing those numbers could be as many as two
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: hundred thousand nationwide. By the way, So Steve Hilton was
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: asked about all of this, and I just love his response.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: There's a He told the story of Delilah Krause. She
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: was five years old when a legal alien from India
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: caused a multi car pile up in California. I want
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: you to listen to to Steve Hilton here.
• 9:49
  Speaker 9: Mister Hilton, would you require full compliance with the federal
• 9:52
  Speaker 9: language standards for truck drivers?
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: You have sixty seconds.
• 9:55
  Speaker 10: So I've discussed this with some un called Marcus Coleman
• 9:59
  Speaker 10: from Bakersfield. His beautiful daughter, Delilah was put into a
• 10:03
  Speaker 10: coma by someone driving a truck, an illegal immigrant, didn't
• 10:08
  Speaker 10: speak English, and his daughter now disabled for life. That's
• 10:14
  Speaker 10: what we're dealing with here. It is completely ridiculous that
• 10:17
  Speaker 10: we have people driving on our roads who can't understand
• 10:21
  Speaker 10: road signs and can't speak English. So yes, of course,
• 10:24
  Speaker 10: and I've discussed this with my friend Shawn Duffy, the
• 10:26
  Speaker 10: Transportation Secretary. We will not be issuing commercial driver licenses
• 10:31
  Speaker 10: when I'm governor to people who are illegally here and
• 10:34
  Speaker 10: who don't speak English. That is obvious common sense.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Right is I mean, that seems pretty That seems pretty
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: reasonable to me, ladies and gentlemen. And I did a
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: little research on this young girl. Her name is Delilah Grause.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Her father was critically injured in the same crash. Delilah
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: suffered critical and life altering injuries. Just a five year
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: old little girl. She suffered a broken femur, she had
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: skull fractures, she lost her ability to walk, talk, and
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: eat orally. The guy behind the wheel, By the way,
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: this Indian dude with the turban crossed the southern border
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: in October of twenty twenty two and was actually released
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: into the country by the Biden administration. Had this guy
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: just been deported, little Delilah would literally be wrapping up
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: her first year in kindergarten. But instead the Democrats gave
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: this guy, this illegal, a commercial driver's license, and now
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: poor little Delilah is going to need lifelong therapy. Now,
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: all of the Democrats on stage last night, we're saying
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: that the true victim here is the well, the illegal alien.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: But mister Hilton and mister Bianco, I think rightly pointed
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: out here that banning illegals from getting the CDLs is
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: obvious common sense. Now I'm curious to hear your thoughts
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: on this. Have I do a lot of driving back
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: and forth between Memphis and Nashville and Memphis and Dallas,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: and so in my experience, you can sort of tell
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: who the illegal alien truck drivers are. And it is
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: dangerous out there. I mean you really have to be
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: when you're driving, you know, to Dallas or to Nashville.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: It's almost like you're in a combat situation. You are,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: You've got it. You can't be let your mind wander.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: You've got to keep your eye on the road, and
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: especially if there are big rigs around. And it didn't
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: use to be that way. I mean, I remember, you know,
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: we've got summer vacations right around the corner, and lots
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: of you guys are hitting the roadways going to place
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: like the id the Gulf of America, or Dollywood or
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Silver Dollar City.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Back in the nineteen seventies, I don't know about you,
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: there was no greater joy than our family vacaus summer vacation.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: And we would always go down to like Panama City Beach,
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: or we would go up to the Ozark Mountains and
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: we'd be in the we'd be in the back of
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: the station wagon and Dylan, this was back before they
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: made you wear seatbelts and so the kids we'd be
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: in the back of the station wagon and the window
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: b rolled down and you'd have like you'd see the
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: big rigs and we'd be out there. You'd had convoy
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: convoy playing on the eight track and the big rig
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: coming up, and you'd pump your hands in the air
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: hoping that they would blow the horn, you know, and
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: then once they blew the horn, I mean that was it.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: You know, your your summer vacation was made. Well, those
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: days Jesus a loop a long gone. And now the
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: kids are literally strapped in their seats like they're about
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: to take off on a space shuttle. And you got
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: some big rig driver wearing a turbine from Pakistan on
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: the bumper, and you're sitting there praying to the Good
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: Lord you're just gonna make it to the BUCkies and
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: what peace, mercy sakes America?
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Got it? Take a break here. Nine oh one two
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six hour telephone number. That's
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: This is the Ton starn Show. Welcome back, everybody. This
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: is the Ton Stearns Radio Show. Nine oh one two
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. That's nine oh one
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. You know, one
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: of the other things when you look at what Canvin
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Newscomb has done and the policies of these Democrats, it
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: is is just so unacceptable, and I was watching the
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: I was watching the moderators, and they did a pretty
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: good job of asking the questions. There's only you know.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: They they can't let it become a free for all here,
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: but the Democrats, and I thought Steve Hilton especially did
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: a very good job of pointing out that the Democrats
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: have ruled California for decades. They are responsible for everything
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: that is wrong. Everything that is wrong, from the numbers
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: of people leaving, the homelessness crisis, the drugs, the whole
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: nine are. As a matter of fact, here's Katie Porter,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: and this sort of tells you everything, everything you need
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: to know. She was asked to grade Gavin Nuskum on
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: how he's handled the homelessness crisis. Take a listen.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: What grade would you give him on homelessness? And what,
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: if anything, would you do differently? You have sixty seconds.
• 15:38
  Speaker 6: I'm a notoriously tough grader, but I would probably give
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: him a bee on homelessness. I don't think this has
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: been an easy problem to solve, but I do give
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: him a lot of credit for calling attention to the problem.
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: When he campaigned eight years ago, he was talking about
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: housing when nobody else was.
• 15:54
  Speaker 10: Well By the way, I'd love to be in your class,
• 15:56
  Speaker 10: Katie if you get a beef. Well, Gavin, you some
• 15:59
  Speaker 10: still on hook, missus? My goodness.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, Hilton's absolutely right about that, and good
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: for him for calling her out on it. But anyway,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: I just you know, the question is will California voters
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: wake up and are they willing to step off that
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Democrat Party plantation?
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Steve Hilton also pointed out in the debate that one
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: of the reasons why gas prices are so high are
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: because it is because of all of the additional taxes
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: and fees that California has levied on all of the
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: hard working taxpayers of the state. And again, California is
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: a beautiful place, a wonderful state, beautiful people. There's no
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: reason for them to move to places like Tennessee or Texas.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: And I'm telling you, I am really concerning. God bless
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Marshall Blackburn. Marshall Blackburn's coming under fire. And you know
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: why Marshall Blackburn is coming under fire because she said,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: don't you bring your left wing politics to Tennessee. You
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: are not welcome here. And now the left is going
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: bonkers over that. But I'm in a thousand percent agreement
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: with Marshall Blackburn. We don't want you here. We don't
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: want you to bring your far left wack of doodle
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: policies that turned your states into hellholes. We don't want
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: you to come to our state, which is like a paradise,
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: a utopia, and turn it into Idalo California with an accent.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Nobody wants that. And I don't know about you, but
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: you folks in North Carolina especially, you want to understand.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: You know exactly what Marshall Blackburn is talking about, because
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: you guys used to have a lovely red state and
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: then the Liberals started moving in. Look at what's happening
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: in Virginia right now? What was it?
• 17:47
  Speaker 11: In?
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Culture had an interesting statistic that she posted on acts
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: about the numbers of illegals, or rather the number of
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: immigrants that were moving into Virginia. And like years ago,
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: that number was, well, here we go. In nineteen seventy
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: one out of every one hundred Virginuins was far and born.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: One out of every one hundred right now. By twenty twelve,
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: by the way, one in nine Virginians was far and born.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: You see what's going on here, ladies? And gentlemen, all right,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: gotta take a break. I know one two six zero
• 18:21

  Speaker 3: hundred nine ninety nine ninety six ninety. That's eight hundred
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: ninety six ninety Text and data rates may apply. All right,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: let's go to the phones. Robert in Texas on Patriot
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: Talk nine to twenty. Hi, Robert, what's on your mind today?
• 19:40
  Speaker 12: Well, so he's gonna get job. He's got my attention
• 19:42
  Speaker 12: to Marsha Blackburn getting some abuse for, you know, turning
• 19:45
  Speaker 12: back the tide. What about all those high profile politicians
• 19:49
  Speaker 12: in New York that was just dragging on conservatives and
• 19:53
  Speaker 12: how they weren't wanted there and the governor just making
• 19:56
  Speaker 12: points about what we don't need you, and how come
• 19:59
  Speaker 12: there was no he love about that.
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, Robert, it's a great point. And you're
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: talking about Andrew Cuomo who said, gosh, this was almost
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: ten years ago, and he said that conservative Republicans and
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: then he drilled down. He says, if you believe in
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: pro traditional marriage, if you are pro life, if you
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: are pro Second Amendment, there is no place for you
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: in the entire state of New York.
• 20:26
  Speaker 12: Well, I just hope a lot of people took that
• 20:28
  Speaker 12: to heart and didn't go there.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, as a matter of fact, I mean there are
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: there are so many different reports out there, Robert, people
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: that are packing up and leaving, so much so that
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: Kathy Hokeel said, if you really want to be patriotic,
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: you would stay and pay more taxes in New York State.
• 20:48
  Speaker 12: Right, if the morale doesn't improve, the beatings will continue.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Well said. Well, it's true though, But again, Marshall, Blackburn's
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: got a great point. In Tennessee, we welcome new families,
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: we welcome new businesses as long as they check the
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: blue state policies at the state line. And it makes sense, Robert,
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: that's why they're moving, that's why they're leaving those destroyed states.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: And those states were destroyed by the policies of the Democrats.
• 21:16
  Speaker 12: Yes, and I consider that a disease that's spreading to
• 21:19
  Speaker 12: perfectly good cities. If you want to take a nation down,
• 21:22
  Speaker 12: all you have to do is destroy all their major
• 21:24
  Speaker 12: cities and move to the mid tier cities and take
• 21:26
  Speaker 12: it on down. But I think they have a case
• 21:29
  Speaker 12: of double standards. Why is Blackburn so out of line
• 21:32
  Speaker 12: to do this?
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: It's a fair point, but Robert, the reality is that
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: most of the people who populate the newsrooms they feel
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: just like Andrew Cuomo feels. And I will say this, Robert,
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: I mean you guys in Texas, you're dealing with this,
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: probably more so than us in Tennessee. With the influx
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: of liberals from California.
• 21:53
  Speaker 12: Well, We've been a target of the bluing of the
• 21:55
  Speaker 12: state for good ten years and now they are going
• 21:58
  Speaker 12: in full court press mode.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Well, this, this Senate race is going to be interesting
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: to watch and uh Talleriico is getting a lot of
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: money and a lot of it's coming from out of state.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: So they see or at least they sense blood in
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: the water in the Senate race. Robert, how do you
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: how do you feel that's that's going to go? You
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: think Paxton's going to be the guy.
• 22:23
  Speaker 12: We've got all of our cards, you know, in his
• 22:25
  Speaker 12: deck because he's the only decent guy. But we have
• 22:28
  Speaker 12: a backup. We could vote for corning Off somehow he
• 22:30
  Speaker 12: won in the primary and still get a Republican. But
• 22:36
  Speaker 12: money seems to do it nowadays. People don't look at
• 22:39
  Speaker 12: policy or the individuals. It's like how many times do
• 22:43
  Speaker 12: they get a text on their phone and how they
• 22:44
  Speaker 12: weigh the possibility of voting.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: Robert, we got to leave it there. Great thoughts, my friend,
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: and thank you for listening to us. Thanks for listening
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: to Patriot Talk. Nine twenty nine oh one two six
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: to zero five nine two six is our telephone omber.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine to six.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: So yesterday on the Newsmas Congress went, Mary Miller dropped
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: by and she revealed some crazy stuff happening right now
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: in the state of Illinois. So May Day is coming up,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: that's May first, and that's when all of the communists
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: take to the streets in march. Schools across Chicago are
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: going to allow students and teachers to get out and
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: march in these radical protests. And Mary Miller is up
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: in arms about all of this. But she also revealed
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: in our conversation that there are teachers and they are
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: telling children that America is a bad country. I want
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: you to take a listen to our conversation from last night.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: I want to jump right into this. So where is
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: all of this radicalization coming from. Is that the local
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: school level or are we talking about the national teachers unions?
• 24:01
  Speaker 13: Well, it's coming down from the top, which is the teachers' unions.
• 24:05
  Speaker 13: And I think that we have to admit that the teachers'
• 24:09
  Speaker 13: unions have done incalculable damage to our country. This has
• 24:13
  Speaker 13: been going on for a long time. They are indoctrinating
• 24:17
  Speaker 13: our children rather than educating them. And this is a
• 24:21
  Speaker 13: national problem. But Chicago is a case study in it.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: I know my News Max colleague Kelly Sadler was on
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: the show yesterday. She lives in Virginia. Her two sons
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: came home from school yesterday and they asked if she
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: was going to vote yes on the Jerrymander. It turns
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: out their teachers actually weaponized the classroom to advance the
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Democrat Party's agenda. I want you to listen to this.
• 24:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah, in civics class, I think they took that as
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: an invitation to teach the children what party they should
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: belong to, Progressivism, Democrats, Obama, and that the Conservatives are
• 24:58
  Speaker 8: aligned with Donald Trump. They're going to see the elections
• 25:01
  Speaker 8: in the midterm, and you need to go out and
• 25:03
  Speaker 8: tell your parents to vote yes on this referendum. And Todd,
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: let me tell you, since I put that story out,
• 25:09
  Speaker 8: other parents in the district have come to me and
• 25:13
  Speaker 8: told me similar stories.
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: So to your point in Congressoman, I'm wondering how big
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: of a problem is this across the country with these schools.
• 25:21
  Speaker 13: It is widespread, and I can't encourage parents enough to
• 25:26
  Speaker 13: please get involved. Visit your school, look at the curriculum,
• 25:30
  Speaker 13: talk to your children. I know I have had conversations
• 25:34
  Speaker 13: with Secretary McMahon, and she's visiting schools across the country
• 25:39
  Speaker 13: where the students do not they can't say our pledge.
• 25:43
  Speaker 13: I've talked to parents whose children have been upset when
• 25:46
  Speaker 13: they've heard the national anthem song and when they ask
• 25:50
  Speaker 13: them why that their child, their first grader, has told
• 25:53
  Speaker 13: them back because America is a bad country. And this
• 25:58
  Speaker 13: is its outrageous. I think the majority of Americans now
• 26:02
  Speaker 13: are functionally illiterate. And in Illinois we have over a
• 26:07
  Speaker 13: million students that can't read at grade level, read or
• 26:10
  Speaker 13: do math, much less understand civics. They know nothing about
• 26:14
  Speaker 13: how exceptional our country is, that we're a constitutional republic,
• 26:19
  Speaker 13: that we have, you know, separational powers, nothing. But yet
• 26:23
  Speaker 13: they're indoctrinating kids. They're uninformed, they're uneducated, and thus they're
• 26:29
  Speaker 13: easily manipulated into accepting these radical ideologies.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: All right, That was Congress and Mary Miller having a
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: conversation on NEWSMACS last night, And it goes back to
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: what Linda McMahon said just a few days ago that
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: many schools around the nation are simply not teaching kids
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: to be patriotic. Take a listen, got four, I'll tell you.
• 26:53
  Speaker 14: The saddest thing that happened to me relative to any
• 26:57
  Speaker 14: of these tours was at one school that I went to,
• 27:02
  Speaker 14: and the principal told me he said, wow, he said,
• 27:04
  Speaker 14: I'm really glad you had the words, you know, to
• 27:07
  Speaker 14: the pledge of allegiance, you know, up on the boards,
• 27:10
  Speaker 14: because I don't think the kids in our school know
• 27:13
  Speaker 14: what they are, and they can opt out of saying
• 27:16
  Speaker 14: the pledge of allegiance, and so the school just opted
• 27:19
  Speaker 14: out and they didn't have to say it anymore.
• 27:23
  Speaker 15: I thought, what a comment that is. And this same principle,
• 27:27
  Speaker 15: when he got up to announce for everyone to stand
• 27:30
  Speaker 15: to save the pledge of allegiance, he said, no, understand,
• 27:32
  Speaker 15: you're not pledging allegiance to any particular flag, but it's
• 27:35
  Speaker 15: to a spirit. So you can pledge this allegiance to
• 27:37
  Speaker 15: whatever flag you think is appropriate for you.
• 27:41
  Speaker 16: And I'm going, wow, how can we really drive home
• 27:45
  Speaker 16: patriotism and love of country and respect for our flag
• 27:49
  Speaker 16: if we actually have teachers and principles who are not
• 27:53
  Speaker 16: encouraging the very basics of what is patriotic in our country.
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: I'm just going to to say this, I think we
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: would be better off if Democrats had no access to
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: our public school classrooms. I think teachers who are our
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: democrats are very dangerous. I think by and large they
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: have been using their platforms in their classrooms to advance
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: as unpatriotic ideology. And look, look, the Trump administration knows this.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Last year, they issued an executive order ending radical indoctrination
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: in K through twelve schooling, and the President pointing out
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: that in recent years parents have witnessed schools indoctrinating their
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: kids in radical anti American ideologies while deliberately blocking parental oversight.
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: And the President is right, he says, this is it's
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: nothing more than an echo chamber, and the kids are
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: forced to accept these ideologies without question or critical examination.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: And this is why we have seen such a radical
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: shift in thinking about ideas like capitalism, for example. It's
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: because the teachers are telling the kids that capitalism is bad,
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: that America is guilty of all the world's problems. I mean,
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: it goes. You can go down the list here, the
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: President said, in many cases, his innocent children are compelled
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: to adopt identities as either victims or oppressors solely based
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: on their skin color and other immutable characteristics. In other instances,
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: young men and women are made to question whether they
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: were born of the wrong body and whether to view
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: their parents and their reality as enemies to be blamed.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: And you just heard what Mary Miller said. We had
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Kelly Sadler, the Newsmax host, on this very program a
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: few days ago, talking about how her kid's teachers were like,
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: you've got to go home and you've got to tell
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: your parents to do this. I mean, that's I think
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: that is the norm, and those are not anomalies in
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: many of our public schools around the nation. So anyway,
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: I'm glad the President is addressing this, but the reality
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: is the executive orders are not being enforced, and we
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: have got to start enforcing these executive orders. And if
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: that means defunding, suspending all federal funding to schools that
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: are unpatriotic, I said, we got to do it now.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: I believe that one of the chief things that schools
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: ought to be doing is promoting American patriotism. And right now,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: we've got at least a generation of young people that
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: were raised to hate America. And that is a tough thing,
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: and it's a sad thing because we really do have
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: the greatest nation on the face of the earth. And
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: it's interesting when you talk to people who travel and
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: I have been overseas, and I got to tell you,
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: I love Israel. I love you know, Europe and Italy,
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: great great areas, but they don't hold a candle to
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: the United States of America. I mean, that's right. If
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: I want to go to Paris, I'm going to go
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: to Paris, Tennessee. Isn't that home of the world's largest
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: fish frye? By the way, Dylan, can we can somebody
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: check me on that I was gonna go, Or if
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: I wanted to go to Pittsburgh, I'm going to go
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: to South Pittsburgh, Tennessee for the annual cornbread Festival. That's
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: where they make cast iron skillets do by the way,
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: So all that to say, I'm not sure what I
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: meant to say. I was getting off on a tangent.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: It is Paris, Tennessee is the biggest fish for largest fish.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: Fri and they also have a replica of the Eiffel
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: Town they do. Yeah, all right, So why do you
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: need to Why don't you spend all that money go
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: over to a country they hate you, you know, they
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: the people. They're very unkind, very unfriendly, and they're very
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: ungrateful too. We pulled their fat out of la fire
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: during World War two. Otherwise they'd all be speaking German.
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: I wonder if anybody regrets regrets that decision. So all
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: that to say, let's start enforcing these executive orders, and
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: once we can fix the broken school systems in America,
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: we're gonna be okay, We're gonna make it. If we don't,
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: we're not. I mean, it really is that simple. All right,
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: gotta take a break here. Nine oh one two six
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: zero five nine two six. That's nine oh one two
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: six zero five, nine two six. This is the Todd
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: Sterns Show. All right, let's go to the phones. Statesville,
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: North Carolina. Billy listening to us on ws I C.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I'm billy. What's on your mind?
• 32:43
  Speaker 12: Well?
• 32:44
  Speaker 17: I was just listening to the all the things going
• 32:47
  Speaker 17: on in the country, black kids and haven forbid adults,
• 32:52
  Speaker 17: even principles that don't know the Pledge of allegiance and
• 32:55
  Speaker 17: even as don't think it's important to say it and
• 32:58
  Speaker 17: mean it and and do you put that along with
• 33:01
  Speaker 17: everything else going on, and it just kind of is
• 33:04
  Speaker 17: a worrisome thing. To me about the direction this country's
• 33:07
  Speaker 17: going in.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: Do you remember back when you were in school, Billy,
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: where was there an emphasis placed on on American patriotism.
• 33:16
  Speaker 17: Over the force. There was that in prayer and a
• 33:21
  Speaker 17: lot of other good things that the people have managed
• 33:26
  Speaker 17: to do away with over the years. And and every
• 33:29
  Speaker 17: time they drop take away something like that, like prayer,
• 33:32
  Speaker 17: things just get worse eventually. Well they they didn't take
• 33:37
  Speaker 17: that long.
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: No, that's true, they do.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: I remember again as a child growing up in the seventies,
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: you know, we would, for example, for you know, Veterans Day,
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: we would you know, have veterans coming into our classroom
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: as grade scorers, and you know, there was an emphasis
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: for children to join organizations like the Boy Scouts or
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: the cub Scouts, and you know, you were taught out
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: to properly fold a flag, you know, at the school
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: flag pole. So there was it was just infused into
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: really everything that we did in the in the school.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: And I was really thankful for that growing up. And
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: I just it troubles me that our kids these days
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: are not getting that sort of patriotic education.
• 34:22
  Speaker 17: Oh yeah, well, I don't know how long of even
• 34:25
  Speaker 17: as big as and as great as this country is,
• 34:28
  Speaker 17: how many years is that kind of foolishness going With
• 34:32
  Speaker 17: that kind of foolishness going on, is it going to
• 34:34
  Speaker 17: take the weak in this country?
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: Well, I would say you, it's already weakened. Yeah, I
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: think it's already happened.
• 34:40
  Speaker 17: Yeah, But I mean I'm to the point to where
• 34:42
  Speaker 17: it's really dangerous.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: I think it's already happened. I think we're in a
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: very dangerous, dangerous spot right now in the nation. And
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: I am encouraged. I mean, when you look at the
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: numbers of gen Zers that are going back to church
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: that seem to be embracing American values, I mean that
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: is certain encouraging. But unfortunately, we've had at least a
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: full generation that was indoctrinated, and I'm not sure we
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: can undo a lot of that damage, which is why
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: it's so vitally important for us to get ahold of
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: the school system so that we can undo all of this.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: And I just don't see the Trump administration being really
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: serious at this point about addressing that issue.
• 35:21
  Speaker 17: But I don't understand how somebody that calls themselves an
• 35:25
  Speaker 17: American can say all the politive allegiance is not important.
• 35:29
  Speaker 17: You don't even have to say it if you don't
• 35:31
  Speaker 17: want to, or if you want to pledge allegiance to
• 35:33
  Speaker 17: China or Russia, that'll be fine too. You know what
• 35:36
  Speaker 17: kind of fool does that.
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: That's a good cues. So, I mean a liberal, I
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: would say, I mean, if you're asking for an answer,
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: but I think you meant that to be rhetorical. But yes,
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: I get your point, Billy. I've got to leave it there,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: my friend, Thank you for calling in. Nine oh one

• 38:05
  Speaker 3: as well as Rumble and other platforms. So great to
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: have all of you folks with us. During the break,
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: We'll be engaging on our YouTube live chat, so we'd
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: love for you guys to pop over there leave a message.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: If maybe you have a question, I'm happy to answer that,
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: and I'll be doing that in the upcoming break here.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: Baylor University used to be the largest Baptist school in
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: the world, and I think that honor that distinction now
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: goes to either Grand Canyon University in Arizona or Liberty
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: University in Virginia. But anyway, Baylor used to be the
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: world's biggest Baptist school. And Baylor's gone woke. There's really
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: no nice way to say it, but Baylor has gone woke.
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, a good many Baptist colleges
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: and universities have also gone woke. And it's it's a
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: tough situation for the Baptists. And I feel bad for
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: my fellow people because, you know, unfortunately, I don't think
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: the average Southern Baptist is woke at all. I think
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: the average Southern Baptist is a gun toting, Bible clinging,
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: patriotic American citizen. But anyway, Baylor University, they have for
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: years now, they've been they've been dilly dallying when it
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: comes to embracing the values of the Holy Scriptures, and
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: so now you know they're embracing the whole lgbt quia
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: stuff all of that. But one of the other things
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: is that they are anti conservative, which I know is
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: a big shock for a lot of people that live
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: in Texas, and Baylor was sort of like where everybody's
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: sent them. If you were a Baptist in Texas, that's
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: where everybody sent their kids to go to school. Yestyll
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: and even the women, even the girls, the girls and
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: they would go to find their husbands at Baylor University
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: because that's the way things were done in the Baptist
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: faith tradition. Will slit. We have a will saying in
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: the Baptist college world ring by Spring, many of the
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: young ladies, good Southern Baptist gals, they would major in
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: being a missus. That's what they wanted, that was what
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: their degree was. And there's nothing wrong with that, by
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: the way. So anyway, this headline here from BRIDEPARTU and
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: people are just really enraged over this turning Point USA
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: was doing a big event on campus. The headline Baylor
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: University Sabotages event featuring borders are Tom Homan. Baylor denied
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: ticket holders from the greater Waco community after initially approving
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: non student ticket holders. The event was hosted by the
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: school's Turning Point USA chapter and featured Tom Holman and
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: Texas Attorney General Kim Paxton and the conservative plagiarist Benny Johnson.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: Pardon me, podcaster Benny Johnson. It's part of the this
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: is the Turning Point tour. But despite initially approving non
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: student ticket holders, reading from the brandmart piece here, but
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: initially they approved the non student ticket holders, Baylor now
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: denied forty five hundred people from attending the event in
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Waco Hall, a dome roofed auditorium on campus. A TPUSA
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: rep said the event was originally designed to be open
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: to both the student body and local Waco, the local
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: Waco community, So anyway, this is terrible. They're saying that
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: only forty about four hundred students showed up for the event,
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: and it was basically a cavernous building and nobody was
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: in the room except for the four hundred kids and
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: Turning Point is blaming this on Baylor, and I think
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: there's there are two separate stories here. One is that
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: Baylor really doesn't want Turning Point USA on their campus.
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: But I think the broader story is that Turning Point
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: USA is having some problems and people aren't showing up
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: in the record numbers that they had in the aftermath
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: of Charlie's assassination, and they've got to figure that out.
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: And look, a lot of that has to do with
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: the leadership. And this is nothing against missus Kirk, but
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure she's the right person to lead that
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: organization right now. Does that mean I know, I'm not No,
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: I'm not being critical of her. I'm just saying you
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: need a strong, bold leader, somebody who has vision and
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: can implement that vision. And at this juncture, I mean
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: she does a great job I think speaking and doing
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: the public speaking. I've got no problem with that. But
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: I'm just telling you that one of the big problems
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: with Turning Point USA, and this was back when Charlie
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: was alive, is they had no infrastructure. They had no bones.
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: You got to have some bones. They never had that.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: They always relied on Charlie being out on Fox news
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: channel and doing the big debates going out to the
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: college campuses, and now everybody and their brother's doing that,
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: and let me just say, it's lost its luster. I mean,
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: it's just right, it's you know what I'm talking about here.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, everybody's out there trying to engage in and
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: by the way, it's there's there's an authenticity problem too.
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: And I say that because it seems like the speakers
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: that are everybody's wanting to be the next Charlie Kirk
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: and they're really trying hard, and they get up there
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: and instead of like engaging in a winsome way with
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: these students, they're like screaming matches and you're like, wow,
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: this is really what is the word untoward? Oh my
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Lana the six So anyway, turning point is saying, well,
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: the reason we didn't have a soul Out arena is
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: because Baylor wouldn't allow people off campus. Okay, are you
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: telling me that on a massive campus like Baylor, only
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: four hundred kids showed up?
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: Is that what?
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: Because that, to me is the bigger story. Also, Baylor
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: refused to allow media to attend this coming from Channel
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: ten News, they're in WACOKWTX media organizations were denied access
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: to a Turning Point USA event at Baylor University. The
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: conservative group and university administrators offered conflicting accounts of the restrictions. Well,
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: by the way, Don Trump Junior was actually supposed to
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: be there, he didn't show up. Keep in mind, remember
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: what happened where the University of Georgia, right they had
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: the big UGA event. I mean just a few hundred
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: folks were there, and that they featured the vice president.
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: So Turning Point said the media restrictions were due to
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: the venue they had rented, and they said they believe
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: the event would accommodate the general public. Baylor said that
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: they were clear with event organizers from the beginning that
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: the event would be for students, faculty, and staff only,
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: with an additional one hundred and twenty five seats for
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: invited guests from Turning Point, and again the local reporting
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: is about well. They said more than four hundred students
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: made their way inside the cavernous building, So there you go.
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: Peter Fernandez, the president of the Turning Point Baylor Champter,
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: told the TV station how their chapter had grown over
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: the past two years. Anyway, it's I. Yeah, I wish
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: them all the best and I have no ill fillings
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: at all for Turning Point, But I think the days
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: of the big mass arena events are over for Turning Point,
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: and right now I think they also have a messaging problem.
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure they understand who they are or what
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: they want to be moving forward. Are Do they want
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: to be a political action committee? Do they want to
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: be are they a wing now of the Republican Party?
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: Those are a lot of big questions they're going to
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: have to be asking as they as they move forward.
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six?
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: Is are telephone over? Where is that story? Oh? Yes, Dylan,
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: we have news from Starbucks. You know, Starbucks is moving
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: their their hub, their headquarters to Nashville, Tennessee. Did you
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: know that?
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: Yes? I recently heard about this.
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: So so see. They're all based in Seattle, and I
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: hear it's a lovely town, but it rains all the
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: time and it's just kind of cold.
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: Really, because I heard they're all depressed.
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: And that too. Yeah that too. I was trying to
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: be nice, I really was.
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: They had good coffee, yeah, are decent or bad coffee?
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: So anyway, there. Everybody's moving to nash Vegas. And by
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: the way, that and that is what a left wing
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: city looks like.
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: You had.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: You had a perfectly great conservative southern town. You had
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: Dolly Parton and Bennie Pearl and Grandpa Jones, Hey, Grandpa,
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: what's for supper? You had all these great folks, he haw,
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: real country music, no bromances down on Lower Broadway, just
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: men and women, country boys and girls getting down on
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: the farm. And now it's like, I don't know, Las Vegas,
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: West Hollywood. There's some freaky stuff going on down in Nashville.
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: But anyway, they're moving everybody out from Seattle. Starbucks is
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: to Nashville, and now there's big trouble. According to the
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: New York Post, lefty Starbucks office workers refuse to move
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: from Seattle to new hub in deep red Tennessee. This
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: is written by Ariel Zibler. Starbucks office workers baulking at
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: orders to relocate to the company's new one hundred million
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: dollar Nashville hub. Some left leaning workers are repulsed by
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: the prospect of living and working in the capital of
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: deep red Tennessee. It really is red, right, I mean,
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: I think we've only got like three Democrats in the
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: state House. The Java Giant has been struggling to trade
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: employees to move from Seattle, even after warning some of
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: them they could lose their jobs if they refuse. The
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: pressure has centered on starbucks roughly one hundred member North
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: America sourcing team, which was told to move down South
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: or risk losing their jobs. Now, you know, Dylan, I'm toyed.
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: You know, over the years, you know, people say, maybe
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: you need to move back to New York to the
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: show from New York, or maybe you need to move
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: the show to Ashville, you know, you're closer to all
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: of the celebrities and all that kind of stuff, or
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: Boca Ratone or Washington, DC. And I said, you know,
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: I'm kind of happy here, right, I mean, we're right,
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: We're situated between We've got Quirky's Barbecue on one side
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: and then we've got Central Barbecue on the other and
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: Tops Barbecue across the street. So I think we're, you know,
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: in a pretty good spot.
• 49:52
  Speaker 4: It doesn't get too much better food wise here.
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, you know what they're building around them,
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: So this is exciting news. Here they're building us sonic
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: like within walking distance. Next to the bank and that
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: big lot. Oh yeah, and right like this is also
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: within walking distance. The new Waburger or not water Burger,
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: the new in and out burning out. Yeah, in and out.
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: It's coming to Memphis, which is better than water Burger.
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: Some would say, I hope the windows are bulletproof. I
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: really do. Anyway, So all that to say, I mean,
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: you know, I would have you know, I mean, if
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: I'd have decided to move to Washington, I would have
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: had to come to you and say, Dylan, we're gonna
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: have to relocate, and would you have moved?
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: It would have taken a lot of convincing. No.
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: By convincing, you mean a lot of money, a lot
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: of money. So Starbucks kind of figured out that, hey,
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: you know what, that could be a problem here. So
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: here's what Starbucks did. The company offered to reimburse up
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: to two thousand dollars in travel cost for employees just
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: to visit Nashville and explore the city. They also dangled
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: retention bonuses. I don't like that. Why are people dangling?
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: No dangling? Please? Are you ready for this? So the
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: bonuses starting at fifteen thousand dollars. The post has Starbucks
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: long cultivating a progressive image, backing racial equity initiatives, promoting
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: LGBT inclusion, and aligning itself with other left leaning issues,
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: a posture that has helped cement its reputation as a
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: latte liberal brand. Last year, the company closed hundreds of
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: stores and conducted sweeping layoffs in the wake of sales declined.
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: You know why, if they just focused more on the
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: roasting of their beans as they did the roasting of conservatives,
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: maybe they'd have a decent cup of coffee. Anyway, Starbucks
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: says their Nashville push is part of a broader one
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: hundred million dollar investment that's expected to bring in as
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: many as two thousand jobs to the city over the
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: next five years. So there you go. And now Starbucks HQ.
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: They're just really perplexed over all of these liberal employees.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: I have a great solution to this problem. You brought
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: you bring them in, the purple haired girls and you know,
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: the soy boys, and you say, here's the deal. Kids,
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: you're either moving to Nashville or you're fired. Good luck
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: to you. We'll be right back. All right, Welcome back, everybody.
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: This is the Todd Searns Radio Show. Wow, all right,
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: this is interesting. Can we talk about it's weird? Speaking
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: of Nashville, there's a country music song, right, and the
• 53:01
  Speaker 3: dude's gay and he's married to a man and they're
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: buying children all over the place. And so anyway that
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: the guy went viral because they're posting these TikTok videos
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: or so I don't have Instagram one of the what
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: are those platforms? And they're, uh, they're mocking the newborn
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: baby they just purchased. And the baby they asked the guy,
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: They asked the poor baby, does baby want you know,
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: does baby want mommy? And then the poor old baby
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: starts crying because the baby's hungry, and the baby realized
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: right away, Oh wait a second, that's not mommy. And
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: I mean it's really offensive and quite frankly, it looks
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: like child abuse to me. But now the the and
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: again this when the Supreme Court redefined what God had
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: originally defined his marriage. I predicted at the time that
• 53:53
  Speaker 3: it was going to be anything goes, and that one
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: day people would be getting married to animals, people would
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: be shacking up with their computers. And who's this. I mean,
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: you know, again, if if anything goes, then maybe even
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: three people could get married or four people and may
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: and you should have seen that. I got put on
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: every anti gay, homophobic you know website. Man, they were
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: coming after me. But ladies and gentlemen, once again, yours
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: truly has been proven correct. After all, there was the
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: story of the guy who tried to get married to
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: his laptop in Boston, and I was concerned about that relationship.
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you don't want to get a virus.
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: You know, you don't want to download a virus that's
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: not good. And then there was the lady who wanted
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: to have relations with a tree. And now this story
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: out of Canada where three gay guys are in a
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: three way gay relationship and they're adopting a child cut
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: number six.
• 55:03
  Speaker 9: For the last seven years, Jonathan Bidah, Eric LeBlanc and
• 55:07
  Speaker 9: Justint have been waiting to become parents together.
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: All right, So here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: I wasn't watching the clock. We're gonna come back and
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: we're gonna tell you what happened to these guys. And uh, also,
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: somebody is getting betrothed to an animal in America. We're
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: gonna tell you about that too. Nine oh one two
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six hour number. That's nine
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. This
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back to
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: the Tod Stearns Radio Show. So look, here's the deal.
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: The three gay guys in a three way gay relationship.
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: Is that what they call a thropple? Anyway, they're purchasing
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: a baby girl together. I want to listen to this report.
• 56:12
  Speaker 9: For the last seven years, Jonathan Bidah, Eric Leblin and
• 56:17
  Speaker 9: Justint have been waiting to become parents together, something that
• 56:21
  Speaker 9: officially happened yesterday.
• 56:23
  Speaker 18: She's perfect, of course, like any She's curious, she's energetic,
• 56:27
  Speaker 18: she loves to play, she loves to jump, she loves
• 56:29
  Speaker 18: to dance.
• 56:30
  Speaker 9: They adopted their three year old through Quebec's Youth Protection Services,
• 56:34
  Speaker 9: but first had to be approved as foster parents, something
• 56:38
  Speaker 9: that required a lot of work and openness. They say
• 56:42
  Speaker 9: to their relationship.
• 56:43
  Speaker 18: We had a lot of things to go through in
• 56:45
  Speaker 18: order to be able to be to have that accreditation,
• 56:49
  Speaker 18: and it's through that process that they learned that we
• 56:52
  Speaker 18: are a little different because we're three, but we're not
• 56:54
  Speaker 18: different from any other family.
• 56:56
  Speaker 9: Some other Canadian provinces, including Ontario and Britain. Wish Columbia
• 57:00
  Speaker 9: legally recognized more than two parents, Quebec does not. Last April,
• 57:05
  Speaker 9: a Quebec Superior Court judge ruled the government has a
• 57:08
  Speaker 9: year to modify the civil code to allow a child
• 57:11
  Speaker 9: to have more than two recognized parents, saying the current
• 57:15
  Speaker 9: situation is unconstitutional and violates the Canadian Charter of Rights
• 57:19
  Speaker 9: and Freedoms since it discriminates against different family models. Quebec
• 57:24
  Speaker 9: is appealing the decision. The Justice Ministry declined our request
• 57:27
  Speaker 9: for an interview, saying they won't comment since the matter
• 57:31
  Speaker 9: is in court.
• 57:31
  Speaker 18: We think that either way it might go all the
• 57:34
  Speaker 18: way to the Supreme Court. But we were saddened from
• 57:38
  Speaker 18: the fact that we're not backed to by our own governments,
• 57:40
  Speaker 18: which is supposed to be an open government that wants
• 57:43
  Speaker 18: to help every single family.
• 57:45
  Speaker 9: Well, the law doesn't recognize all three as parents. They
• 57:48
  Speaker 9: say they're sharing the responsibilities equally and doing whatever they
• 57:52
  Speaker 9: can to create a stable home and secure future for
• 57:55
  Speaker 9: their daughter.
• 57:56
  Speaker 18: We talk about what come up with if we split up,
• 58:00
  Speaker 18: someone dies, and stuff like that. We do anticipate those
• 58:03
  Speaker 18: things because we have to, because we're not protected if
• 58:05
  Speaker 18: it doesn't.
• 58:06
  Speaker 9: And after what it has taken to get here. They're
• 58:09
  Speaker 9: enjoying this moment.
• 58:10
  Speaker 18: We are lucky to be three to give her all
• 58:12
  Speaker 18: that support. But I think we're the lucky ones to
• 58:15
  Speaker 18: have her in our life.
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that poor child. And again, ladies and gentlemen, once
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: you redefine what God defines and who are you? Who
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: are you to say that that is wrong? Dylan? This
• 58:31
  Speaker 3: story from South Africa. There's a man by the name
• 58:35
  Speaker 3: of Marius Els who is in a gay relationship with
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: a giraffe.
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: Oh, like a grown giraffe, or.
• 58:45
  Speaker 3: Like a real giraffe, not like the toys r us
• 58:48
  Speaker 3: Man Scott right, This is a real giraft by the name.
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: His name is Gerald the giraffe, of course, and it
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: was platonic, of course. And El's was from South Africa,
• 59:01
  Speaker 3: and he developed intense feelings for the giraffe that he
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: actually named Gerald. He spent a great deal of time
• 59:09
  Speaker 3: with the animal on a wildlife property, feeding and interacting
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: with it closely. Friends and family expressed concern. You think
• 59:20
  Speaker 3: you think so? Friends and family expressed concern that he
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: had become overly emotionally attached and was treating the giraffe
• 59:29
  Speaker 3: almost like a human companion.
• 59:32
  Speaker 4: Did you imagine him talking to his mom. He's like, Mom,
• 59:34
  Speaker 4: I'm bringing someone over for dinner. We are going to
• 59:37
  Speaker 4: have to take the roof off.
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: Though, what do you mean I can't bring Cheryl for
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: Thanksgiving dinner. He's part of the family.
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: Go on, mother, I don't think Jerald eats turkey.
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: I don't think so either. Well, the story has an unfortunately,
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: very sad ending. It turns out while he was interacting
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: with Gerald, this is terrible. While he was interacting one
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: day with Gerald, Gerald apparently wasn't in the mood and
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: reportedly headbutted and trampled poor poor mister Elsh Gosh, resulting
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: in fatal injuries. It's a terrible story. Experts say that giraffs,
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: despite their calm appearance, are powerful and unpredictable animals, especially
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: adult males. It's a sad story.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: This may be the only time I've heard of a
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 4: giraffe being aggressive. And if that's the reason why it's aggressive,
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 4: I'm okay with that.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: I told you don't touch me down there. Allegedly. Yikes,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: very sad. So I did a little bit of research, Dylan,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 3: and it is true. This is this is weird, but
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: there is there. This is not like anomalyes these This
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 3: is really happening all over the world where people are
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: getting married to things that are nonhuman. A lady by
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: the name of Erica LaBrie she married the Eiffel Tower.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 3: She actually took the she took the tower's last name.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 3: She goes, I am not joking. In two thousand and
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 3: seven she married the Eiffel Tower. Her new name Erica Eiffel.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 3: She said, what can I say? I like metal structures,
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: she did. Other people have been romantically attached to computers, robots.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 3: The whole AI thing is going to get really out
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: of hands. I mean really out of hand.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 4: These people are probably eating that all up.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 3: A British woman, Kate Cunningham, held a ceremony she married
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: a tree to protest a plan to build a bypass road.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: She said the act symbolized her commitment to protecting nature
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: and in parts of India, tree marriages are sometimes part
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: of cultural or spiritual rituals, not a romantic relationship. For example,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: in certain traditions, a person may be symbolically married to
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 3: a tree to ward off bad luck or align astrological factors.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: Another guy claimed he married the Berlin Wall I can't.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 3: And in Japan somebody actually married a pillow. I guess
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 3: you could say it was my pillow. Wow, Oh this
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: is that. And also musical instruments, so you can marry
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 3: your musical instruments. Oh, are you playing your saxophone? No,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: I'm making out with my wife. My bad, my bad.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: That's just terrible. It's it's called objectophilia. They actually have
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: a psychological name for this, which is a relationship where
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: you are connecting on an emotional level to an object.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: In other words, these people are slap crazy nuts. That's
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 3: what this is. Jez a loop. But again, can we
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 3: just go back to this one central truth. When you
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: redefine what God defined, you get chaos in the culture.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 3: And this is going to be a big issue. You watch,
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: You're going to have more of these three people relationships
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: and four people relationships and who are we at this point?
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: Who are we? Because you'll have people in the LGBT community,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: or at least the g's and the b's. Wait a second,
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: in the els, No, I forget anyway, let's just take
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 3: You'll have a couple of gay guys and they're like, well,
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 3: this is just unacceptable. I mean, nobody we can't have
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: three people get getting married. That's just immoral. Oh really,
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: who mm hm you gonna you're gonna make that assumption
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: or that assertion, you you're gonna do that. You see
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: what happened here, ladies and gentlemen. It is a slippery,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 3: slippery slope. All that to say, just stay away from
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: the hippopotamusis nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 3: two six on our telephone number. Let's go to John
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: in Dawnsonville, Georgia, listening to us on w d U.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: And oh, by the way, I heard, I just heard
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 3: from Bill Maine who said he appreciated the shout out
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 3: and Dylan, he says, by the way, only Tony Orlando
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: has ever seen the crack of Dawn.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 4: That's pretty good.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: That's well well playedvill Maine. Uh John, what's going on?
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 19: Hey Todd. It's a pleasure to speak to your great America.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: Thank you, sir, Thank you.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 19: I have two points to make, and I need to
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 19: make sure I get my second point in before you
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 19: cut me off. First thing I was going to say
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 19: about the schools is it started, you know, years and
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 19: years ago in the universities, all this progressivism, and then
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 19: it moved filtered its way down to the high school.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 19: Now it's all all the way down to the grade schools.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 19: And I hope we can get rid of the Department
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 19: of Education before Trump gets out of office, because that
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 19: thing needs to be gone. Something's got to be done
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 19: about this school situation.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, John, I agree with you. I think that that's
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 3: it's going to have to be the number one thing
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 3: that they do is shut down the Department of Education,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: give control of the schools back to the local communities,
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: and we can fix what's broken at that point. But
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: if they don't, then it's never going to be abolished ever.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 19: That's true. And my second point was I finally got
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 19: to see you on TV. I usually don't watch news
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 19: on TV, but i've uh clicked on newsmaxts the other night,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 19: and I said that he happened to be on, and
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 19: so I wanted to tell Dylan he might want to
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 19: keep you away from those barbecue places for a while. Uh,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 19: just saying, well.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 3: What does that mean, Jesus loom. So, John, you call
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 3: into this program and you you're criticizing my girth, sir,
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 3: Oh you're.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 19: Looking you're looking a little heavy there. God.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 3: Oh, Jesus Loo. Yeah, that's because I do enjoy some
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 3: good barbecue.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 19: Well I do too, so I can't foster you for that,
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 19: but all right, just might need to lay off of
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 19: it a little bit.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 3: You want meet youat a salad? Is that what you want? John?
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 3: I need eed a salad? Well, well, I don't know,
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 3: all right, John, thank.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 4: You for the call, you know, or judgment, I don't know.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 4: In Memphis, what are we supposed to do?
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: I'll get back to you on that. It's one of
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: those days. What can I say? Oh, by the way,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 3: this story out of Memphis, Tennessee. We told you about
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 3: this a long time ago. You know, our school system here.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: You just call in and it's like you tub a lard.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna talk to the makeup artist. She's supposed to
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 3: give me one chin. I don't think that's working anymore anyway.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: The Memphis Shelby County School Board has man, those people
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: are terrible. They're all Democrats and they have destroyed the
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: school district here. So it got so bad. This is
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 3: one of the largest school systems in America, and it
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 3: got so bad that these State of Tennessee which, by
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 3: the way, the state legislature controlled by Republicans. They actually
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: stepped in and officially yesterday announced they were taking control
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: of the school system. Over seventy percent of the children
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 3: cannot read at grade level. Isn't that? That's just insane?
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: Over seventy percent of the kids can't read at grade level.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 3: And if you're a taxpayer, that means you're not getting
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 3: your money's worth. You're not so anyway. One of the
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: school board members, her name is Towana Murphy as in
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: big Toe Tojuana Murphy. She is an aspiring musician. She
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: wrote a very popular song called who Can't He Be Kissing?
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: And she's a member of the school board. And so
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 3: she was debating a Republican over on one of the local
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 3: TV stations, And I want you to listen to the art.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: This is why they're upset about the Republicans coming in.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 3: Take a listen.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 4: Want to increase the proficiency rates.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 20: Proficiency rates that are far too right now coming out
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 20: of MSc.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 21: Now I'm going to piggyback off of that because we
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 21: have level five schools. We have a eighty five percent
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 21: graduation rate, So you can't say that we're not focusing
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 21: on literacy because we have Well I agree, but that
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 21: starts in pre k.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 9: So can you just pre k?
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 4: I hope that's coming can No.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 21: No, I'm not going to accept any help that's coming over. So,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 21: first of all, we don't even know who these people are,
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 21: and they all want to be Republicans. You can't come
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 21: in from another state and tell us how to run
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 21: our district seventy percent blasting.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 20: You cannot do that. Nearly two billion dollars a year
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 20: to the district, that's certainly, but you spent six million
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 20: to add it us.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 3: Let all right? So how dad?
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 5: He?
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 3: Who who you be thinking you are? That's that's Towana
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 3: Murphy right there, and it's really fascinating and I just
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 3: I get a hoot out of it. It's really a
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 3: hoot because these people are as racist as the day
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 3: is long, and they can't even see it. The entire
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: school board, except for one person, is black. It's been
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: that way for years. Every single person elected a high
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: office in this city, in this area is black. There
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: are no whites in charge of anything, and they haven't
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: for a very long time. We're talking like generational stuff now.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 3: So all of the problems and so what this woman
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: is saying, when she's saying Republican, that's code for whitey
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 3: or hanky, if you will. And she's got a big
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 3: problem with all of you hankies coming in and telling
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 3: them how to fix what's broken in their school system.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 3: Who do you think you are? That's what she's saying.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 3: Who do these people think they are? Nobody ever stopped
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 3: to think about this, that the all Black school board,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: the all Democrats school board, is responsible for the ignorance
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: that is spewing out of the school system right now.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: No one ever really thought to think. Nobody thinks about that.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: But if you want to take a look at who's
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: to blame for the kids not knowing how to read
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: or do math or any of these other things, you
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: have to look directly at the Black Democrats. They're responsible.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 3: And quite frankly, the stuff spewing out of this woman's mouth,
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 3: and she's not the only one. The stuff spewing out
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 3: of this woman's mouth is racist. It's racist, and it's
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 3: just unacceptable. But the good news here is that the
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 3: Republicans have a backbone of steel. There are two of them.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 3: A guy by the name of State Senator Brent Taylor
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: and another by the name of Representative Mark White, and
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 3: they've been called every name in the book. It's so
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: ugly the attacks on these two men. And all they
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 3: want to do is make sure that the black children
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: of Memphis, Tennessee, can read, can write, can do simple
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: basic mathematics so they can go to college, or they
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: can go to a trade school and get a job.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 3: And for that they've been crucified. And I said, shame
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: on people like Towana Murphy. Quite frankly, one of the
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 3: bigger problems on the school board is half of them
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: can't even read and write themselves, and it's appalling, and
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: I say shame on them. So anyway, all of that
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 3: is getting fixed, but it's gonna be really shocking it
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: just to watch all the racists coming out of the woodwork.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 3: And by racist, I mean these black radical leftists who
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: hate whitey, they hate Hankeys, and they are satisfied with
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 3: the fact that children here in Memphis can't read and write. Well,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: we're about to do something about that. And I certainly
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 3: hope that the moms and dads of Memphis, Tennessee, remember
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 3: who's responsible for fixing a broken, failing school system. Shame
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: on you, you godless heathen racist out there. We'll be
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: right back. Welcome back, everybody. Little Rock Arkansaw, an Arkansas cat,
• 1:13:05

• 1:13:36
  Speaker 3: your grandparents used to have really clever names for cats.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 4: Yes they did. I'm trying to think of them.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: Baby Moses one of my favorites. Yes, the winner from Arkansas, though,
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: this is Little Rock. Congratulations, a stray kitten that grew

  Speaker 3: Our three come it up.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: America's conservative blowtorch, Samaritan.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 3: Todd start all right, it is our three of the
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 3: Big Show. Welcome everybody. I am Todd Stearns. What an
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 3: honor to have you with us today. Write down our
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 3: telephone number. You will need this. Nine oh one two
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 3: six zero five to nine two six is our telephone number.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 3: I want to go right away to the Patriot Mobile
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 3: newsmaker line and say hello to Mark Lynch. Back with us.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: He is running for the US Senate in South Carolina
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: and wants to unseat Lindsey Graham. Is he still a
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 3: Disney World or is he?
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: No?
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 3: He's okay, gotcha, he's back now? All right, Well that's good.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 3: Who am I to be grudge a man for wanting
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: to have a vacation. I mean, you know, most most
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: men in America go to a place like, I don't know,
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 3: the beach or the golf course. Some go to Disney World.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: So who am I to judge mister Lynch. Good to
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 3: have you with us today. I hope things are going
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 3: well in the Palmetto State. They're growing really great. God,
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: our momentum is growing and he's going down this year. Well,
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: you know, I've heard this in the past. So what
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 3: makes us different? How are you How are you certain
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: that Lindsey Graham is going to lose? Well, we just
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 3: we got our polling a few weeks ago and a
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: Rasmussen poll, and Lindsay has dropped to forty one percent.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: I was at twenty one percent. Paul Dan's in third place,
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 3: was at eleven But ten days ago Paul Dans dropped
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: out of the race and endorsed me, and that was
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 3: an awesome thing for him to do. He's joined us,
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: and so his eleven percent will come our way and
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 3: on an informed ballot. That was done when Lindsay and
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: Paul was still in the race. Lindsey dropped to twenty
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 3: three and I surged to thirty four percent. So it's doable.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: This year, We're going to give America a great anniversary
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: present by the removal of a trader in con You
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 3: say that he's a trader in Congress, What do you
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 3: mean by that? Well, we had a bright bard arcle
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 3: come out just a couple of weeks ago with his
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 3: organization USAID from two thousand and seven to twenty twenty four,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty two million dollars. We're going to
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 3: NGOs directly associated with the designated hamas terrorist organizations in
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: al Qaeda, and so I think that's called a trader.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: In the last quarter budget of twenty five, in the
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 3: first quarter of twenty six, he again signed to put
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 3: in five point seven billion dollars of our taxpayers money.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: And we're you know, we're bankrupt at thirty nine trillion
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 3: dollars in debt. But he's still funding illegal aliens so
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 3: they can get health care and shelter and clothing, and
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 3: they're not even citizens in this country yet, I think
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: what we can go on and on? Hey, I think
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 3: one of the troubling things here about about Lindsay Graham
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 3: is he is certainly a warhawk. He has he does
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 3: not hesitate. I mean, if it were up to him,
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 3: we'd probably be involved in World War four by now,
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 3: and he has no problem sending the sons and daughters
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 3: of South Carolina off to war. How does that mindset
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 3: play there in your state? People are tired of it.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: We're not going to be fooled again. The citizens of
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 3: South Carolina are done with Lindsey Graham. And we've heard that.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 3: For the last fourteen months, we've been campaigning across the
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 3: state and they're loving they have a Bible candidate with
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 3: me that's a true conservative, a successful businessman, a husband
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 3: of thirty eight years, children, grandchildren, a successful debt free business,
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 3: somebody that can go to d C and represent the
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 3: people like they need it need to be, you know.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 3: So that's what I'll do when I get into the
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 3: US Senate. You know, I don't know what the relationship
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 3: with Fox News is, but they may as well just
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 3: make make him a co host over there. Seems like
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 3: he's spending more time on Fox News than he is
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 3: back home in his home state. Oh yeah, he's campaigning
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 3: hard because we've got we've got the polling, and he's
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 3: concerned and he's doing desperate things and the lives have started.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 3: He's you know, he's sending out direct mail pieces and
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 3: he's on the news talking about how good he is
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 3: picking all these good judges when he voted for the
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 3: majority of the judges of Obama and Biden's picks that
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 3: are stopping everything Trump's trying to do. They're Democrat judges,
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 3: So how's that good. I'm just curious about about Lindsey
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 3: Graham and the Save America Act and what bothers me.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 3: I don't hear him out there voicing much support at
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 3: all for the Save America Act or condemning the Majority
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 3: Leader John Dune for bottling up the president's agenda. Exactly
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 3: his job as a Republican. When we own the White
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 3: House with President Trump, we own the House majority and
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 3: the Senate. He can make a motion to vacate Thune
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 3: and get four other Senators to come along with him
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 3: and remove him. That's what I'll do. What is he doing?
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: He's posturing when he knows he can finally say, oh yeah,
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 3: I'll vote for that, when it's gone into another filibuster situation,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 3: and when he sees it safe to say he'll vote
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 3: for it, he'll say it. What does it say about
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 3: Lindsay Graham though, that he has not done that? Yeah,
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, it's just horrible because he's
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: not fighting for us. No, even worse, he's not fighting
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 3: for the president's agenda. And that's me right. That to
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 3: me is just unforgivable. And we need Republicans up on
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 3: Capitol Hill that are going to push this president's agenda
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 3: across the finish line. And I don't see Lindsay Graham
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 3: doing that. No, And his lifetime record, of course, conservative
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 3: voting record is forty three percent Todd and his constitutional
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 3: voting record is fifty seven percent. He's failing in every scorecard.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: He's a liar. Yeah, all right, Mark, Where can people
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 3: go if they want to get more information about your
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 3: campaign and getting involved in the fight here? Yes, and
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 3: how do we win this? We win it with all
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 3: of y'all out there helping me. I'm willing to go
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 3: and represent you like we need with true conservative representation.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 3: So go to lynchfursenate dot com. What else can you do?
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 3: People say, Well, call me and tell me what we
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 3: can do. Get your cell phone out and do some
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: phone baking with your family and the friends. You know,
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 3: Send a donation. This takes a lot of money.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 3: We're a debt free business. My wife and I are
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 3: debt free since nineteen ninety nine. We put five million
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 3: dollars of our own money into this race to show
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: people we're committed and I'm doing everything I can do
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: for you, but I need everybody's help out there, and
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 3: this is the year it can happen. He's down to
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 3: forty one percent and falling fast. It's doable. All right, well, Mark,
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 3: we're going to leave it there. We wish you nothing
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 3: but the very best. And again, Lindsay Graham's got to go.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's just the reality to it. And folks
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 3: got to go check out Mark and his great campaign,
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 3: great businessman. And Lynch for Senate dot com is the
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 3: website addresser. That's Lynch for Senate dot Com. Mark, thank
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 3: you again. We appreciate you coming on the program. Absolutely,
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 3: thank you.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 2: Todd.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 3: All right, there you go, folks. So at least you've
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: got a viable choice, and I like that. I think
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 3: every single Republican running should have some sort of a
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 3: primary opponent's there's nothing wrong with that. You know, a
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 3: lot of people say, oh, that's just betrayal. No, it's not.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 3: It's making sure that we have the right person for
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 3: the job. And it's about getting out there and holding
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 3: literal town hall meetings. It's about agreeing to debate your
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 3: opponents because we've got a lot writing on what's happening
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 3: in the midterm elections, and we want to make sure
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 3: that we get the right people out there. All right,
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 3: I want to go to the phone lines D's been
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: holding on for a while, Gainesville, Georgia. I D, what's
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 3: on your mind?
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 22: K SN. I am on my way to work, so
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 22: I'm going to make my points direct and let you
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 22: have it. A few years ago, actually about ten years ago,
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 22: I worked for school system Englynnette, which he knows right
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 22: outside of it. Last the faculty, staff and students were
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 22: forced to watch the video about white privilege. And you've
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 22: probably seen the video where a lot of students are
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 22: our students are lined up and the white students are
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 22: asked to step back every time that they mentioned racial privileged,
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 22: white privilege. It's a it's a white shaming video. I
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 22: was appalled. I had come from conservative North Georgia into
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 22: liberal land and it was a big culture shock for me.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 22: So on the topic of local controls, if they do
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 22: abolish the federal Department of Education, which I agree with,
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 22: it'll put our control back to Atlanta, and the folks
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 22: in Atlanta are as bad or worse as the people
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 22: in DC. I don't have the answer, but I don't
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 22: think that will really help us. Second point is that
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 22: this school.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 19: And many of them.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 22: Were obsessed with putting a diploma in the hands of
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 22: the kids, which sounds great, but the problem is they
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 22: lost sight of what the diploma represents. The diploma is
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 22: supposed to certify that this is an adult who's ready
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 22: to enter the workforce, and these kids were not because
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 22: of behavior issues and attitudes. These kids would just get
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 22: up and walk out of the building.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 3: At will, just leave. D Have you noticed that kids
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 3: just don't They're not I don't think they're scared of anybody.
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 22: You're not none of them. And it's crept northward. I
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 22: hate that because I love where I live. I actually
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 22: live in Banks County border which borders Paul County Gainsel,
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 22: and we've been a traditionally very Christian conservative area community
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 22: and I love that it fits my belief in my lifestyle.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 22: But I see it creeping in here. So those are
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 22: the points I wanted to make. It doesn't help to
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 22: put a piece of paper in the hands of the child.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 22: It's the personality and beliefs of the child don't represent
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 22: what that diploma stands for. It's just checking a box.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 22: And when they check the box, the liberal administrators get promotions.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 22: You know, the old thing follow the money trails. That
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 22: was the push to get to diplomas, not to make
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 22: these people, make these kids employable adults. And it's all.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 22: It goes way back, it goes twenty thirty years back,
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 22: and I hate that. I do. I love the Lord,
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 22: i love our kids, i love our country, and I'm
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 22: deeply concerned about the damage that has been done and
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 22: what it would take to correct this. D.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 3: It's look, it's some great insight you offer, and I'm
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 3: not sure what the answer is either as far as
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 3: who makes those decisions on the local level. I just
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 3: know the federal government needs to get out of that
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 3: the education business, and we'll figure it out on the
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 3: state and or the local level. D. I hope you
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 3: have a great day at work, and thank you for listening,
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 3: Thank you for calling in, folks. Our telephone number nine
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five, nine two six. This
• 1:26:36

  Speaker 3: have you with us today. Our telephone number, by the way,
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero six and coming
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: up tonight five o'clock Eastern on the Todd Stearns Show.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 3: We have Congresswan Beth van Dine joining us. Also the
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 3: very latest on what's happening with the election and with
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 3: the gubernatorial campaign there in California. So last night on Newsmax,
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 3: had a wonderful conversation with two individuals, Tina Deskovic, who
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 3: is one of the founders of Moms for Liberty, and
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 3: also Philip Jiaji, who is an attorney with American Family Association,
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 3: both of them targeted by the Southern Poverty Law Center
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 3: and of course the SPLC now under an indictment, a
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 3: love and count indictment of fraud. Let's take a listen
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 3: to that conversation. Tina, to you first, your reaction to
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 3: the indictment.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 20: We have been living under the black cloud of our
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 20: label the Southern Poverty Law Center placed on us in
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 20: twenty twenty three as an anti government extremist group. They
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 20: placed us on their hate map, and that dark cloud
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 20: has been following us around. It's put a big old
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 20: target on the back of our organization. You and I
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 20: could have a conversation for hours about the damage that
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 20: that label has done to our moms individually. In their
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 20: personal lives, their professional lives, to our organization's ability to
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 20: grow and prosper. And so I am thrilled that justice
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 20: is just starting to look like it may be served.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 3: And also American Family Action, you guys came under the
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 3: same attack from SBLC.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 11: They've been doing this for quite a while, and it's
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 11: pretty revealing, Todd that now we're seeing, you know, they
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 11: weren't just sort of trying to investigate and prevent hate.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 11: They were actually stoking it and making money off of it.
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 11: It's pretty sick what they did, and they've run crosswise
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 11: with criminal laws. And I'm thankful that we have prosecutors
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 11: in a justice system that's willing to look into this
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 11: because too much in the past politics have played in
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 11: the opps at favor. The left got a free pass,
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 11: while people like President Trump who were not doing anything
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 11: wrong were investigated and indicted criminally. So it's nice to
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 11: see justice serve for a change. We'll see how this
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 11: turns out, but it's good at this point.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 3: Well yeah, but we've got to I mean, look, there's
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 3: a lot of money that's reportedly an offshore accounts, so
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 3: we've got to make sure these people are shut down
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 3: and shut down for good. Here's one of the jaw
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 3: dropping allegations, Tina. The indictment says the SPLC paid organizers
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 3: of the twenty seventeen Charlottesville riot. Here's Acting Attorney General
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 3: Todd Blanche.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 23: One troubling example is that the SPLC was paying a
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 23: member of the leadership group that planned to Unite the
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 23: Right protests in Charlottesville, Virginia in twenty seventeen that resulted
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 23: in the death of one person and injured dozens more.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 23: This particular person being paid by the SPLC allegedly received
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 23: approximately two hundred and seven thousand dollars over the course
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 23: of eight years.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 3: So again we're reading into this here, but they actually
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: peaked under the KKK hoods and there were SPLC people,
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 3: what what the heck here? They blamed Donald Trump for
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 3: this to you.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 20: Know, they also doubled their revenue from over the next
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 20: several months after that happened. After it, when you look
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 20: at what they've done, and you know you can you
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 20: can follow the money to see what they've done and
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 20: bring out bring charges against them and indict them, and
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 20: you can follow the money and see that it's increased
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 20: their revenue. But some of the things that maybe aren't
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 20: as tangible to see is the impact it's had on Americans,
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 20: the fear that it's stoked, they hatred that is stoked,
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 20: the thoughts that America is racist and they would carry
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 20: It's just the extent that organization has done damage to America.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 20: I think we don't even know yet. And I am
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 20: just so happy that we're starting to take a serious
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 20: look at this organization.
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 3: And Philip real quick here. The reality is, this is
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 3: just the tip of the iceberg, and it's just appalling,
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 3: appalling what Christians and Conservatives have been forced to deal
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 3: with over all these years.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 11: Yeah, and it's going to be interesting too, Todd to
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 11: see what happens. As an attorney looking at this indictment,
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 11: I kept wondering, it's an indictment of the corporation, and
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 11: yet you have individuals that haven't been indicted, or at
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 11: least not yet. So there are two employees with Southern
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 11: Poverty Law Center that were doing these things that were
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 11: apparently crimes. I don't want to allege that, but from
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 11: the statute I've looked at, apparently they were crimes. They
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 11: haven't been indicted yet, So I don't know if perhaps
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 11: they're cooperating or what's going on, but yeah, we'll see
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 11: what happens with this. Of course, it's just an indictment.
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 11: It's not a finding of guilt. You would have a
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 11: jury trial and everything else. But we'll see how this
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 11: turned out.
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 3: That was a bit of our conversation there on Newsmax
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 3: last night. And I will just say the Southern Poverty
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 3: Law Center deserves everything they've got coming to them. But
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 3: keep in mind that was the reason why what happened
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 3: in Charlottesville, Virginia is the reason why Joe Biden said
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 3: he decided to jump back into the presidential race back
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 3: in uh, back in the day. And the reason why,
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen, is now we know that Southern Poverty
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 3: Law Center bankrolled whatever happened in Charlottesville, Virginia. They were literally,
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 3: they were literally paying white supremacists and others these Uh,
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 3: this just insane, just insane, what SPOS was doing, Ladies
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 3: and gentlemen, all right, gotta take a quick break here.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:32:41

  Speaker 3: I want to go right away to the Patriot Mobile
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 3: news maker line. Very excited to have with us. Wendy Patrick,
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 3: a career trial attorney and a Newsmax columnist. A Wendy,
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 3: good to have you on the show.
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 24: Hey, Thott, it's great to join you.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 3: You know, Wendy, we were talking in the first hour
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 3: about this California gubernatorial debate last night, and it really
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 3: struck me as I was watching the two Republicans, Steve
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 3: Hilton and Chad Bianco, and I got to tell you,
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 3: I was really impressed with what I saw coming out
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 3: of those guys.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 24: You know, it's true, and you know, Todd, they really
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 24: didn't go at each other the worst Democrats was sort
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 24: of engaged a little inviting on the stage. You know,
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 24: there are the two front runners, and they had sort
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 24: of a united front that they presented, you know, and
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 24: for a fairly low energy debate compared to some other
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 24: debates we've covered, it really was a pleasure to see
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 24: those two gentlemen interact and really sort of kind of
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 24: point the fire where it belongs at the poor policies
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 24: they're arguing that they would get if the other side
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 24: were elected or even were sent to the to the
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 24: general election.
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 3: I think it was almost laughable that Javier Masera giving
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 3: Gavin Uscomb the a on how he's handled the homelessness
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 3: crisis there in California.
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 24: Yeah, you know, but you know they had to go
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 24: there because living in California, I've lived here my whole life,
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 24: homelessness had exploded over the last decade. Anybody would tell
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 24: you that. You know, there were a couple of areas
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 24: of commonality betwe and all the candidates, and homelessness was
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 24: one of them. But you can't really lose credibility by
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 24: claiming that, you know, the current administration has made that better.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 24: And that's even though you and I probably have both
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 24: covered that that time where you saw Kevin Newthen out
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 24: clearing the homeless encampments, remember that. Oh yeah, yeah, you
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 24: we all recognize it's an issue. But you know, Steve
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 24: Hilton really hit head on when he talked a little
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 24: bit about you enforce a law of this is where
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 24: you can and can't stay, but then you have to
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 24: make sure there's ways in which we can help the
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 24: people that we seek to move along, help them get
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 24: the help that they need so they're not homeless and
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 24: it's not simply an issue of where do you put them.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 24: I thought that was nice for him to bring that up,
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 24: because you know, he's got a lot of guts, having
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 24: spoke his mind as a you know, on the news
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 24: so many years that that does in a sense qualify
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 24: him to hit these issues head on. He knows what
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 24: he's talking about because he's been talking about.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 19: It for years.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 3: No, it's a very fair point, and again he just
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 3: seemed to have all the right answers, and especially on
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 3: the gas issue, it was sort of laughable watching the
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 3: Democrats blame Trump for the high gas prices when in
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 3: fact it's the it's the the fees and the taxes
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 3: imposed by the state of California, which is why you
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 3: guys have to pay what five six bucks a gallon
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 3: for gas.
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 24: You know, that's exactly where we are today. You know,
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 24: I hear often know, well nationwide average, we have never
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 24: been a nationwide average. We are always paying more.
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 10: You know.
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 24: I have to say, you know, for Tom's Dyer that
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 24: he actually hit one of the issues that everybody has
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 24: in common, and that's the people that live in California
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 24: can't afford to live here. You know, occasionally you have
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 24: some candidates say something that everybody agrees with and that
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 24: that happened to be one of them. But we can't
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 24: just not talk about it. You know, we have the
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 24: same problem and complaint among the citistory. When Joe Biden
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 24: was in office, people said he can't just get out
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 24: there and say things are good, things are better when
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 24: we are all looking at our receipts every day. So
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 24: I thought that's one of the things that's going to
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 24: continue to characterize this race in California. That's different from
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 24: so many other states where we're not paying the same
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 24: amount for gas, for groceries and so many other things.
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 24: As we are here.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 3: Help me understand this because anybody who wants that debate.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's pretty clear the two Republicans really hit
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 3: home and they answer the questions. I think they delivered
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 3: the performance they needed to deliver. But I just I
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 3: don't get why Californians are still electing these Democrats who
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 3: keep passing these insane policies that make their lives more miserable.
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 24: And you know, that question, no doubt, is on the
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 24: forefront of the minds of Californians because look who's leading
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 24: in the polls, the two GOP front runners, and that
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 24: has got to be just devastating for so many Democrats
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 24: that may have thought this would be a shoe in.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 24: You know, everybody likes to see a lively race. They
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 24: like to thee competition. But if in fact we have,
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 24: you know, two Republicans petitor to the general, that is
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 24: going to be unprecedented. I think Swallwell's departure level the
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 24: playing field in ways that were unanticipated even by the
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 24: Democratic leadership. And we know that because there's now been
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 24: this discussion behind the scenes as to which Democrat, not
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 24: whether which Democrats should drop out of the race. You
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 24: know that two people wouldn't even have been on that
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 24: stage had Swallwll not exited the race. So I have
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 24: my eye on next Tuesday night, and I think that
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 24: is going to be much more in the fireworks department
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 24: than we saw last night, because supposedly we're going to
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 24: have a livelier debate, these people have already had a
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 24: shot at it, and voters are going to be having
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 24: their say.
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 3: May I just say, Katie Porter came off as she's
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 3: just a very unpleasant, unkind human being.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 24: Yeah, you know, debates really do give voters the opportunity
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 24: to put a space and a personality with a name.
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 24: They always draw a colorful cast of candidates, but there
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 24: are just names on a ballot unless voters actually watch.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 24: And I have to say, Tod, you and I both
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 24: know viewers are voters, and that's why I tell debates
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 24: have made such a big difference in the history of
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 24: this country, and that even includes last night.
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 3: Do you think it sways any any minds what happened
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 3: last night?
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 24: There were no breakout moments last night, and breakout moments
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 24: sway minds. And this is one of the obviously it's
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 24: the first debate, but the fact that so much drama
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 24: has occurred in the California gubernatorial race. I believe it's
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 24: going to put more eyes on the screen. Probably did
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 24: last night, definitely will next Tuesday night. And because these
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 24: are the people that really care, since we're having such
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 24: as we're really struggling here in California, I do think
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 24: that that personal presence and personality is going to make
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 24: a difference in this race. Perhaps it's even if it
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 24: wouldn't for some less controversial race that wasn't being so
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 24: closely watched as apparently it is now.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 3: Wendy, I love your I love your state. It is
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 3: such a it's a beautiful place. I love vacationing there.
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 3: And I tell the same story, but again it's it's
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 3: what happened in Santa Monica.
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 3: I there's a great place there called Shutters on the Beach,
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 3: and it's a nice little hotel right there, just beyond
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 3: the uh, you know, the pier, the Santa Monica Pier,
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 3: And you can't even the last time I was there,
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 3: they were warning people be careful if you're going out
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 3: on the sand. You know, we've been finding dirty needles
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 3: at the peach and you're like, oh my god, would
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 3: why would Democrats allow this beautiful area just to be
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 3: turned into some sort of I don't know, a homeless encampment.
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 24: You know, you could say that about so many of
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 24: our once glorious cities in California. You can just go
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 24: and look at the beautiful cities up and down the coast,
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 24: and we have the same issue, you know. And it's
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 24: not so much that Democratic people that live there they
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 24: don't like it either, and even the Democratic politicians don't
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 24: like it, but to actually get on the same page
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 24: and admit that I just don't get it either. And
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 24: if they can't get on board with these eighty twenty
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 24: issues that taught I think is ninety ten, that's a
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 24: huge problem right there, because you know, who's picking up
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 24: those needles kids, And that's a big problem. But going
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 24: into the you know, going into the primary, I just
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 24: think that that's one of the things that the Republicans
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 24: really should hit hard on television and in their campaign,
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 24: as you know, because this is one of the places
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 24: that everyone can get behind and that may push them
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 24: over the finish line.
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 3: Wendy Patrick joining us. She is a Newsmax columnist. She
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 3: is a career trial attorney, great American patriot, you know,
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 3: Wendy you're in the San Diego area. I just I
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 3: love San Diego, Coronado Island, the Hotel Dell, the whole.
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, again, these are great cities, great history, a
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 3: lot of great patriots down there. Of course, with the
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 3: naval base and California, if they would just wake up,
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 3: I think that a Republican up in the state capitol
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 3: in Sacramento could really start to move the needle a
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 3: little bit.
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 24: And you know, obviously the fact that the two Republicans
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 24: have such high ratings really makes you wonder whether this
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 24: current administration, even though I mean today is probably not
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 24: a good day to talk about it since das prices
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 24: have gone up again, but just in general, with the
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 24: very common sense policies that the Republicans are espousing not
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 24: afraid to talk about, combined with a unique amount of
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 24: democratic infighting, I mean, those two things are forming a
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 24: perfect storm. That's a play on words, because of course
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 24: we live in a temperature control dome here in California.
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 22: There are no storms.
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 24: But that provides just this impetus that maybe things will
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 24: be different for all the reasons you and I have
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 24: just talked about. I love that you are talking about
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 24: coming here and pouring into our economy, and that is
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 24: one of the issues that also unites Californians. I mean,
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 24: there are so many common sense ways that Republicans can
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 24: can talk about this with constituents. There are pockets of
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 24: red up and down the state that have been very vocal,
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 24: that are talking about making life better. And you've got
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 24: two of those men on the stage coming up here
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 24: again next week, and two of those men on the
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 24: ballot that may justify the odds and be against each
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 24: other in the general. Boy, will that be something to watch.
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be brilliant and I can't wait. Is this true,
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 3: Wendy Patrick, that you play the electric violin? Is this true?
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 24: It is true? It is true. And the next time
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 24: you come out here, I will invite you to come
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 24: and be in my audience. I would love that.
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 3: I love that I didn't realize your in addition to
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 3: all the other you have this resume that's like multiple
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 3: pages long, so many gifts. You a concert violinist and
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 3: you're also an electric violinist in a rock band. I
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 3: love that it's true.
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 6: It's true.
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 24: You know, my allegiance is to Jesus Christ, my Lord,
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 24: who empowers me with the energy to do everything else,
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 24: just like you. I don't know how you have the
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 24: energy you do, but that's one common.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 3: Denominator, doctor Pepper. That's how you do it, Wendy, doctor Pepper.
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 3: So all right, Wendy Patrick, we love to get you
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 3: back on the radio show. Just love all your great analysis.
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 3: Thank you, all right, Wendy Patrick. Everybody, and by the way,
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 3: you can Wendy was on the NEWSMAC show last night.
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 3: We have a lot of fun five o'clock Eastern and
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 3: just Dylan. Now, I'm self conscious after the guy from
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 3: Dawsonville called.
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 4: In, don't pay too much mind to it, Todd.
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go hit the gym between now and the
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 3: five o'clock show.
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 4: You don't have time for that.
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 3: Maybe that's what I should do. I'll just finish writing
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 3: the rest of the show on the treadmill. How's that?
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 4: There? You go?
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 3: Holy smokes? All right, we've got to take a quick
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 3: break here at nine oh one two six zero five
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 3: nine two six again our telephone number, and I know
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. This is
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 3: the Tonstern Show. Dylan, did you feel that just a
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 3: few minutes ago, did you feel a little a tremble,
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 3: a shutter.
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 4: I can't say I have what did what did you feel?
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 3: Well? I didn't feel anything, just you know, a little
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 3: roly poly. The US Geological Survey reported a three point
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 3: nine magnitude earthquake wow in the Missouri boot Heel, which
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 3: is not too far from what is about an hour
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 3: or so away. Ninety minutes. Yes, I don't drive up
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 3: in those parts very often. Quake camp in just before
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 3: one o'clock. The epicenter. This is terrible. The epicenter one
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 3: point nine miles west of Cooter, Missouri, Couter, Missouri. That's
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 3: in that's in the Missouri boot Heel area. Is that Penniscott,
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 3: Peniscott County. They say people as far west as Batesville
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 3: felt the earthquake. Those reporting the quake said they felt
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 3: light to moderate shaking. So there you go. You know,
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 3: we live on a people A lot of people don't
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 3: realize that Memphis is on one of the most dangerous
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: fault lines in the world.
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 4: I always I choose to forget that because we've never
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 4: had like a bad earthquake here. So like when it
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 4: does happen, you'll it sounds like it's going to be
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 4: the end of the world.
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 3: It will be the end of the world because most
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 3: of the homes here and most of the buildings were
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 3: not retro fitted. So now if you have to go
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 3: in and you have to renovate a building, you actually
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 3: have to spend millions of dollars because you've got to
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 3: bring it up to code so it will survive an earthquake.
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 3: But you might not remember this, but the Mississippi River
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 3: actually flowed backwards during an earthquake, which created real Foot Lake.
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 3: So oh, now they're saying it's a magnitude four point
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 3: zero earthquake in couder I love it. What do you
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 3: call people from couder Couters, Guterans, guterance. Oh goodness, gracious,
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 3: that's a little silly. Now this was the New Madrid earthquake.
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 3: When was that? The river flowed backwards? Can you imagine that?
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 3: So literally, the force of the earthquake was so great
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 3: the entire Mississippi River flowed backwards.
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 4: I'll be completely honest. If it was flowing backwards right now,
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 4: I would not know.
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 3: Oh you no, you would know. You would know. So anyway,
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 3: this happened during the eighteen eleven and eighteen twelve New
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 3: Madrid earthquakes, and I'm reading here the massive tremmors this
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 3: was up till eight point six. Man magnitude created temporary waterfalls,
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 3: induced landslides, and caused the uplifting that forced the river
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 3: to flow against its current and created what is now
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 3: known as Real Foot Lake here in Tennessee. So I
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 3: don't want to be around. I don't want to be
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 3: around for another one of those things, My goodness, gracious.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 3: So there you go, big four point zero earthquake there
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 3: in Mozi. Do the locals call it Missouri or Missourra?
• 1:48:10
  Speaker 4: It's got to be Missoira, right, is its? Several different
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 4: people say it different ways. I don't know.
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 3: Back on the so back in the nineteen sixties, and
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 3: this is an odd way to end the show, But
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 3: back in the nineteen sixties when they had the all
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 3: the the rural shows like the Andy Griffiths Show, and
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 3: you know Petticoat Junction, Beverly Hillbillies and Green Acres, all
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 3: of those shows, most of those I believe those were
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 3: those shows were originally based in either Missouri or Arkansas,
• 1:48:44
  Speaker 3: and I think on the show they always referred to
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 3: it as Missouri. Oh do we have that audio of
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 3: the guy, the lawmaker from Virginia talking about yeah he knows,
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 3: he knows country folks, let's take a listen and listen.
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 2: Almost an issue with the other side saying that we
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 2: don't understand. But I grew up watching the Walters, I
• 1:49:12
  Speaker 2: grew up with with Opie. I even watched The Ducer Hazard.
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 2: I think I know a little bit about rural America.
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 2: And when I think about why we're here, we're not
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 2: just here. I'm not just here for THEO I'm not
• 1:49:42
  Speaker 2: just here for Arnold or Willis. I'm here for Opie.
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 2: John Boyd blocks him.
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 3: Topanga topenga p Yeah. Oh is that from boy Meets World?
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 3: Is that what he meant?
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, maybe yeah yeah.
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 3: So that would be like me saying, you know what,
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 3: I watch media movies. I've watched The Fresh Prince from
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 3: bel Air.
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 3: I watch Good Times and What's Happening. Oh my word,
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 3: these people crack me up. You know again, Why can't
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 3: politicians just be themselves? Do you really believe that guy
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 3: watches watch the Waltons. No child in their right mind
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 3: ever wanted to watch the Waltons. That was like old
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 3: people's programming back in the nineteen seventies for crying out loud, unbelievable.
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 3: All right, So anyway, we'll get into more of that
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 3: tomorrow that's coming out of Virginia, where they're still trying
• 1:50:50
  Speaker 3: to defend what they try to do. God bless the courts.
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 3: By the way, Circuit Court judge stepped in late yesterday
• 1:50:55
  Speaker 3: and said, yeah, this is unconstitutional what you people just
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 3: tried to do. And right now the courts have put
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 3: a stop on the redistricting efforts by the Democrats. All Right,
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 3: we gotta get out of here. Good Night, Helen, good night, Ian,
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 3: good night, Dylan, good night, John Boy. This is the
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 3: Todd Stearns Show.
